State troopers continue recovery

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Three state troopers with the Mississippi Highway Patrol are expected to recover after a shootout in Tishomingo County Saturday.

“Fortunately, all three have good prognoses and should recover,” stated Tishomingo County Sheriff John Daugherty in a Mississippi Department of Public Safety press release.

WDAM reports the three

wounded troopers as being Trea Staples and Bubba Holifield both of Laurel and DeAndre Dixon.

A source tells the Daily Corinthian Staples was shot in the leg and received damage to an artery. He is being treated at Magnolia Regional Health Center in Corinth. Dixon was shot in the foot and is being treated in a Memphis, Tenn., hospital.

Holifield was shot in the lower leg and is being treated at North

Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo.

Mississippi Bureau of Narcotics agent Lee Tartt, 44, of Grenada was killed when tactical teams entered the home of Charles Lee Lambert, 45, of 231 County Road 201.

Lambert was also killed during an exchange of gunfire.

According to the Associated Press, a preliminary autopsy report indicates Tartt was hit in the left shoulder by a single bul-

let from an assault rifle, Tishomingo County Coroner Mack Wilemon said Sunday night.

“Saturday morning we got a stark reminder of the inherent dangers of a career in law enforcement,” said Sheriff Daugherty. “Tragically, a brother in blue was killed and three others were wounded. The names of the three wounded officers could have very easily ended up Please see TROOPERS | 2

MRHC educates on risks of diabetes

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Diabetes is a serious disease.

If left unmanaged, it’s a disease which can kill.

Magnolia Regional Health Center is taking steps to educate the community of the dangers of diabetes. The hospital held its second Diabetes Education Class Friday at the Mississippi State Extension Service.

“Diabetes is an area of focus for us,” said Ben Tucker, Director of Marketing and Public

Relations at the hospital. “The class is something we hope to continue.”

Dr. Tommy Sweat is glad the hospital has jumped onboard to education the public on the dangers of diabetes.

“If we can get people to understand the seriousness, maybe we can get them to take better care of themselves,” said Dr. Sweat. “We need to spend more time teaching the general public how to keep from getting sick.”

Cardiologist Dr. Aaron Ear-

les, Ophthalmologist Dr. Jennifer Garrett and internist Dr. Seger Morris were the guest speakers during the class.

Volunteers assist at house fire

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

A family home in Southeast Alcorn County sustained heavy damage following a late morning structure fire on Sunday.

Local volunteer firemen responded to the blaze and were able to extinguish the flames, preventing the damage from resulting in a total loss, according to fire officials.

A family pet was also rescued by firefighters.

The incident took place at approximately 10 a.m. at house 418 on County Road 500.

the plan to have ongoing sessions to keep people informed on the latest chronic diseases,” added Dr. Sweat.

Dr. Earles spoke to the group on Cardiovascular Complications of Diabetes.

“The classes are a good opportunity to speak to people about diabetes,” he said. “Doctors can lead you a certain way, but patients have to take the initiative to get better.”

One thing people can do lower the risk of chronic diseases is to not smoke.

“If you smoke, you need to reconsider and stop,” said Earles. “Diabetes destroys every system in your body.”

Unmanaged diabetes can make you go blind or lose a limb, cause kidneys to fail or trigger a heart attack or stroke. In the worst cases, diabetes can kill you.

Diabetes is often called the silent killer because there can be no warning

Glen Volunteer Fire Department was the first on scene, arriving to find heavy smoke billowing from the home.

“Many in Mississippi have diabetes and don’t even know it,” said Sweat.

“It is extremely important to be pre-screened.”

In a healthy person, the pancreas can help regulate blood sugar levels and make certain that cells get the energy source they need.

In those with diabetes, the system doesn’t work, either the pancreas doesn’t make any insulin, doesn’t make enough insulin or makes insulin which isn’t effective. This causes blood sugar levels to rise, cells to malfunction and the body to break down.

Once organs lose blood supply and begin to fail, life-threatening things such as heart attacks, stroke, kidney failure, poor circulation in the feet and blindness an occur.

“Patients with diabetes are two to four times more likely to have a stroke,” said Earles.

A domestic situation at Lambert’s home escalated into a six-hour standoff with law enforcement Friday evening. Officers stormed the home after Lambert refused to comply with officers’ instructions to come out of the residence and negotiations were exhausted, said Mississippi Department of Public Safety spokesman Warren Strain.

Each of the officers were shot with a high-powered rifle used by Lambert.

The situation began about 5:15 p.m. Friday when Tishomingo County sheriff’s deputies responded to a call of a domestic problem at the home, which sits at the end of the paved portion of a winding country road about 4 miles southeast of the Iuka city limits and the Iuka Airport.

“I want to extend my gratitude to all the law enforcement agencies and officers who came to assist us as we dealt with this situation,” said Daugherty. “The other emergency responders, including the medical personnel and firefighters, were critical in the efforts to ensure these officers are able to protect the citizens of Tishomingo County and all of the State of Mississippi … we pray violence and death will spare us but reality tells us differently.”

grams of methamphetamine, 64 grams of cocaine and 21 grams of marijuana. Officers also seized $450 in cash.

Other arrests: ■ Joshua Lindsey, 34, of County Road 105, Corinth, was arrested Sunday and charged with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and misdemeanor charges of resisting arrest and disorderly conduct.

Green said the arrest followed a disturbance at Walmart in which a vehicle fled the scene at a high rate of speed.

Lindsey, who was a passenger, bailed out of the vehicle on Oakland School Road and was apprehended shortly after.

Green said he was found to be in possession of 3 grams of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia. Officers found a firearm under the passenger seat of the vehicle.

Lindsey was on probation with the Mississippi Department of Corrections and is being held

for MDOC. Police charged the driver with a couple of misdemeanor offenses.

■ Alex Dalgleish, 23, of Waterstone Drive, Dandridge, Tenn., was arrested Saturday and charged with possession of a controlled substance. He remained in custody Monday afternoon with bond at $10,000.

Green said an officer made a traffic stop after seeing an unbuckled passenger in a vehicle and detected the smell of marijuana coming from inside. A search uncovered a gram of heroin, needles and other paraphernalia.

■ Alexandria Louth, 25, of Old Marietta Road, Booneville, was arrested Wednesday and charged with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute. She remained in custody Monday afternoon with bond at $20,000.

Green said an officer stopped a vehicle on Box Chapel Road for speeding and found paraphernalia, 10 grams of marijuana, 1.7 grams of methamphetamine and miscellaneous prescription pills.

WILLIAMS CONTINUED FROM 1

of Corinth and old Tishomingo County.

In 1859, he pays state tax of one dollar for himself and 40 cents each for his two slaves.

The 1860 Tishomingo County federal census lists Williams living in the village of Corinth as a twenty-six year old mulatto born in Mississippi with the occupation as well borer.

He is listed with a substantial personal estate of $2,000 (which includes slaves) but no real estate. (What cost $2,000 in 1860 would cost $36,995.86 in the year 2000.) Enumerated with him are his wife and son; Eliza a twenty-two year old mulatto and their son John A. Williams. The 1861 Land Tax Assessment list “A. Williams, agent for William M. Inge” (an attorney), paying taxes on the east half of Block 233 Mitchell & Mask Survey – this block is located on Cruise Street at Madison Street.

Williams did not officially purchase the block until May 2, 1872. At that time, Block 233 and Lots 7 and 8 of Block 127 were sold at auction

“as the property of said Williams” because of a court order in the case of Col. Arthur E. Reynolds, complains vs. Anthony Williams, defending. Col. Reynolds was chancellor judge at the time, but he probably appointed another to sit in his stead.

The court ruled in favor of Reynolds and ordered the sale of the property if Williams failed to pay Reynolds $495.72 by February 1, 1872. Although this sounds suspect, auctioning a property was a method of clearing a title and the title to this particular case was complicated. Therefore, it is highly possible that the entire action was an amiable one.

In his lifetime, Williams purchased considerable real estate in Corinth and in the outskirts southwest of town. The first recorded land transaction occurred on September 23, 1866, when he purchased Block 5 in Graham’s Addition in the eastern part of Corinth for $550. He eventually owned several blocks and lots in Graham’s Addition, Anderson’s Addition, and the Mitchell & Mask Survey.

However, it appears that Block 5 was his house site.

Block 5 is in the area of the Forrest Hill Cemetery for African-Americans.

On the 1880 Alcorn County census, Anthony Williams is enumerated with his second wife Mary L. and his children by his first wife Eliza. Williams married Mary L. Paine (born about 1861) on December 21, 1876, before Rev. J. W. Muse in Alcorn County. Although she was considerably younger, during their ten years together, they did not have any children.

The most interesting change on the 1880 census is his occupation, although he may have continued boring wells, he considered preaching the most important for he is listed as a “Minister.” The census and deed records also show that by local standards, he was a prosperous citizen.

Williams was a highly responsible person and was one of the trustees of the Freedman School located in Block 226 of the Mitchell & Mask Survey – located in the area of Cass Street (500 block, west side of street) between Gloster and Linden Streets. Composed of whites and blacks, the trustees in 1867 were

DROPLESS CATARACT SURGERY

Hamilton Mask, William M. Inge, Jefferson L. Wofford, Hardy Brooks (race unknown), Anthony Williams (mulatto), James Offitt (mulatto), and Robert Pigeon (black), purchased this site on August 30 for $125.

Apparently, the Freedman School was also the original site of the Mount Moriah Methodist Church for African-Americans.

The cornerstone for the Mt. Moriah Methodist Church building, located at 800 Meigg Street, reads, “Built 1886,

by Rev. A. Williams, Pastor. Rebuilt, 1928 by C. H. Maxwell, Pastor. B. W. Wynn, D. S.” The old location of the church building is verifiable by local tradition, land deeds, and printed history sources.

Onedia V. Lasley’s historical sketch of Mt. Moriah Church, given in the 1983 volume History of Alcorn County, describes the church’s location “on the east [sic, west] side of Cass Street just south of Linden Street.” She states the church was “organized in 1866 under the pastorate of Rev. A. Williams” and burned in the 1920’s. The 1913-14 city directory locates the church at 932 Cass Street, which is now in the 500 block of Cass Street.

One exciting but fearful public event possibly involved Williams. On

1880 census as a “school teacher” died before his father.

The heirs went into probate court to petition the sale of land that was to be divided between them. In 1895, they corrected a deed to William Box. This deed provided their married names as McPhetus Walker (wife of J. R. Walker), “Mattie” Martha J. Ward and Mary E. Pelton.

Since he lived so close to the Forrest Hill Cemetery for African-Americans on Bunch Street, he and other members of his family should be buried in that cemetery. However, the current published tombstone inscriptions indexes do not carry his name.

The life of Anthony Williams shows an educated and prosperous Christian man who must have been a significant asset to the village of Corinth.

There is no telling now how his actions influenced the values and ideals in his black community – values and ideals that even today make-up and support the character of Corinth’s black community.

December 7, 1874, the Tishomingo Savings Institution (bank) owned

by Alonzo H. Taylor on Fillmore Street where Rankin Printery Company was situated was robbed. The location today is Smith restaurant.

Former members, and there were many, of the notorious James-Younger gang robbed the bank.

The Memphis Daily Appeal for December 9, 1874, reported, “A negro [sic] man was in the bank making a deposit at the time and was not permitted to leave until the robbers retired.” Local historian Mrs. Don Watkins, identified the “negro” as Williams in the May 16, 1954, issue of the Daily Corinthian. Rev. Williams was then about fortyyears old.

The January 7, 1887, issue of the Corinth Herald, carried a brief notice that Rev. Anthony Williams, “a colored citizen and one among the oldest settlers in town died Thursday of last week.” He was only about fifty-three years old when he died.

Deed records show that besides his second wife Mary, three daughters by his first wife survived him; McPhetus (born 1861), Mattie (Martha J., born 1870-2) and Mary E. (born 1873) Williams.

Evidently, his son, John who appeared on the

Today is Tuesday, Feb. 23, the 54th day of 2016. There are 312 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On Feb. 23, 1836, the siege of the Alamo began in San Antonio, Texas.

On this date: In 1863, British explorers John H. Speke and James A. Grant announced they had found the source of the Nile River to be Lake Victoria.

In 1870, Mississippi was readmitted to the Union.

In 1903, President Theodore Roosevelt signed an agreement with Cuba to lease the area around Guantanamo Bay to the United States.

In 1927, President Calvin Coolidge signed a bill creating the Federal Radio Commission, forerunner of the Federal Communications Commission.

In 1934, Leopold III succeeded his late father, Albert I, as King of the Belgians.

In 1945, during World War II, U.S. Marines on Iwo Jima captured Mount Suribachi, where they raised a pair of American flags (the second flagraising was captured in the iconic Associated Press photograph.)

In 1954, the first mass inoculation of schoolchildren against polio using the Salk vaccine began in Pittsburgh as some 5,000 students were vaccinated.

In 1970, Guyana became a republic within the Commonwealth of Nations.

In 1989, the Senate Armed Services Committee voted 11-9 along party lines to recommend rejection of John Tower as President George H.W. Bush’s defense secretary. (Tower’s nomination went down to defeat in the full Senate the following month.)

In 1995, the Dow Jones industrial average closed above the 4,000 mark for the first time, ending the day at 4,003.33.

STARKVILLE—A federal judge on the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi is being recognized with Mississippi State’s 2016 Distinguished Jurist Award.

Sponsored by the university’s Department of Political Science and Public Administration, a presentation honoring District Judge Carlton Reeves takes place Tuesday [Feb. 23] at 3 p.m. in the Robert and Freda Harrison Auditorium at Giles Hall.

A native of Yazoo City, Reeves previously was a partner in Pigott Reeves Johnson, P.A., the Jackson-based firm he co-founded. Prior to that, he served as an assistant U.S. attorney and litigator for Phelps Dunbar law firm.

Reeves is a 1986 magna cum laude political science bachelor’s graduate of Jackson State University who went on to earn his Juris Doctor degree from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1989.

Before his appointment to the federal bench, he served as president of the Magnolia Bar Association, as well as numerous state boards and commissions.

On April 28, 2010, Reeves was formally

nominated to a judgeship for the Southern District of Mississippi

by President Barack Obama. He was confirmed by the U.S. Senate on Dec. 19, 2010, and received his commission the following day.

The second African American federal judge from Mississippi, Reeves already has made several landmark decisions on controversial issues of race and gender during his time on the bench.

In the 2014 case of “Campaign for Southern Equality v. Bryant,” Reeves ruled that Mississippi’s same-sex marriage ban violated the Due Process and Equal Protection Clauses of the 14th Amendment.

An equally high-profile decision came in 2015 when Reeves rendered long sentences on three white youths for the brutal murder of an African American man in Jackson. Reeves read his trenchant and penetrating analysis about racial violence and animus, considered by many as a virtual history lesson.

Furniture Market kicks off Thursday TUPELO (AP) – The Spring Tupelo Furniture Market starts Thursday, but some transactions have already started as buyers and sellers gather for the 29th consecutive year.

Kevin Seddon, president of the Tupelo Furniture Market, tells the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal 49 new companies have bought space this year.

The spring market is later than usual. In the past, it was hosted before or during the Presidents Day weekend, a busy time for retailers.

But with Las Vegas moving its furniture market later, Tupelo officials wanted to create a little more separation between the markets.

While furniture is frontand-center stage at this week’s spring market, officials also are putting a little more emphasis on outdoor furnishings.

Regional school will close after this year TUPELO (AP) – A regional school for handicapped children will close after this school year because only two

districts are using it.

The McDougal Center has been in Tupelo for more than 40 years, and once served nine districts across Northeast Mississippi.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports that only Lee County and the Tupelo Public School District were still using it.

The districts evaluated whether to keep the school after its director, Jan Harris, said recently that she will retire.

Special education teachers from both districts taught at the center. Starting next school year, they’ll move with their students back to buildings in their home districts.

Emu evades police until caught in wire OXFORD (AP) – It wasn’t your usual foot chase. Oxford police caught a homeless emu, with help from some barbed wire.

The Lafayette County Sheriff’s Department had been getting calls about a loose emu for days.

Each time they tried to catch the big, flightless bird, it got away.

Deputy Chief Scott Mills tells The Oxford Eagle that it had been a pet, but the owners moved away.

The bird wandered nearly five miles.

Officer Cody Pruitt

says a chase Friday ended when the bird got tangled in barbed wire, He says its neck was merely scratched. He untangled it, made a leash from rope, and Mounted Patrol Commander David Misenhelter led the emu into a horse trailer.

Pruitt says a farmer who already had emus agreed to take the bird.

Mills leads sewer department

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Corinth’s sewer department has a new co-superintendent.

With the retirement of Billy Glover, the Board of Mayor and Aldermen promoted Clayton Mills to serve as co-superintendent with Tommy Justice, who is co-superintendent on a part-time basis.

Mills was certified operator in charge.

Glover had his last meeting with the board as a superintendent on Tuesday. He logged 34 years with the city, many of them as co-superintendent with Justice.

He will possibly return to the sewer department as a part-time employee.

In other business from the city board’s last session: ■ As recommended by the planning commission, the board approved the preliminary plat for Cannonball Ridge Subdivision off Mississippi Highway 2 near U.S. Highway 72. The subdivision has been redrawn since previously submitted to the commission, enlarging the lot sizes from a quarter acre to a half acre. The planning commission had some concern about potential drainage issues and made its approval contingent upon meeting requirements.

■ The board approved Ryan Wesson’s request to subdivide property on Westview Drive for the purpose of building a pair of duplex apartments on property

zoned R-2. The square footage is planned to be approximately 1,650 per duplex with 825 square feet per unit. The triangular lot, when subdivided, will meet minimum size requirements of an R-2 zone.

Alderman Andrew Labas encouraged Wesson to build brick exteriors.

■ The board approved Kenneth Lancaster’s variance request for an addition and carport at 1217 North Fillmore Street. Neighbors gave their approval.

■ As the police department plans to clear the impound yard, the board gave approval to accept Aaron’s bid of $6,790 for the purchase and removal of 38 abandoned vehicles and Kim’s bid of $728 for three vehicles.

Corinth, Miss.

Rules elsewhere prompt bill JACKSON — Charter schools and using public money to send students to private schools are part of the same larger choice movement. But the two different options are presenting much different faces in Mississippi right now.

Charter schools in Mississippi were birthed only after a Jeff Amy years-long debate, followed by a very cautious administrative Columnist process, with the effect that the alternative form of public schools were heavily scrutinized and are hemmed in by many regulations.

House Bill 943, which was passed Thursday by the House Education Committee, gives wide freedom to spend public money on private schools with few standards and little monitoring. Sponsors say they’re confident that parents will make good choices, and that such accountability to parents is ultimately the best form of oversight.

For example, charter school students, as part of the public school system, will have to take the same tests as students in traditional public schools. The voucher bill required no tests at all be administered and no results be reported publicly if students are tested.

While the Charter School Authorizer Board performs extensive analysis of a school’s academic plan and the prior record of school operators before approving a school, the voucher bill says any school is eligible as long as it meets one requirement — that it holds class 180 days a year.

And while charter schools are authorized for a fixed term and the board is required to evaluate schools’ operations and academic performance, House Bill 943 has no repealer clause, which means lawmakers would never be forced to consider the program again.

The low-regulation approach varies from a voucher program enacted in Louisiana, which requires students in private schools to take state tests. There, the state government can forbid private schools with low test scores from accepting additional voucher students.

Actually, House Bill 943 is something of a reaction to the Louisiana program. The measure shares much in common with a 2015 American Enterprise Institute report that examined voucher programs in Louisiana, Florida and Indiana.

That report found that private schools disliked giving state tests because school leaders feared doing so would force private schools to alter their curriculum and teach to the state test. One particular concern is that schools that have shunned Common Core-linked curricula could have to start using at least some of their ideas to avoid students floundering.

“Private schools value their autonomy and ability to provide an alternative to public schooling,” the report states.

The report does suggest that some private schools would be open to giving nationwide standardized tests such as the Iowa Assessments or the Stanford Achievement Tests.

Without any public test results that can be compared to some other yardstick, it could be hard for parents unfamiliar with schools to judge their academic quality.

Private school leaders in the report also express concern about maintaining their autonomy in areas other than testing, saying those too could prevent them from being a “valid alternative” to public schools.

Like an earlier law in Arizona, the Mississippi law also allows parents to save any leftover money in a federally tax-protected account for college. While it’s unlikely that parents would have much money left after paying private school tuition, it could provide a large college nest egg for home-schooled children, whose parents are also eligible to draw money under the proposal.

It’s unclear if the permissive structure will survive through the legislative process.

House Education Committee Chairman John Moore, after telling reporters that “every private school in this state is beating the public schools,” added that there could be some changes before the bill hits the House floor.

Legislation prophetic for more districts School consolidation legislation now under consideration in the state Senate would consolidate or eliminate 10 of the state’s existing 144 existing state school districts.

The comSid Salter mon denominator is this Columnist legislation is that it targets districts or schools with small or declining enrollments and small or declining tax bases. More to the point, it’s consolidation that has a political genesis at the state rather than the local level.

The history of school consolidation efforts in Mississippi is one that suggests that school consolidation that emanates from the local level faces political obstacles that are tightly ingrained with local political survival. But when that consolidation effort begins at the state level, the effort generally picks up political steam.

Three years ago back in 2013, state Rep. Toby Barker’s House Bill 716 called for creation of a new StarkvilleOktibbeha County Con-

solidated School District from a merger of the-then Starkville School District and the then-Oktibbeha County School District as what I wrote at the time was likely the first salvo in a more systematic battle to reduce the number of school districts in the state after decades of the issue of school consolidation being a political planet killer to politicians who dared mention it.

Then and now, while the U.S. Justice Department continues to examine the ultimate intricacies of that Starkville-Oktibbeha County consolidation, it’s accurate to say that Barker rocked both the Starkville and Oktibbeha districts when HB 716 was filed and even more when it cruised to passage in the House Education Committee.

There was local grousing that Barker (from south Mississippi) introduced consolidation legislation that didn’t impact his own constituents, but districts far upstate. But Barker’s bill ultimately received the public support of local House members including Democratic Rep. Tyrone Ellis and Republican Rep. Gary Chism.

That’s a far cry from what the school consolidation issue used to represent for state lawmakers. Back in the 1980s, when businessoriented lawmakers looked at the number of school districts in the state and saw opportunities for both savings in terms of funding public education and opportunities to improve academic performance, they spoke publicly in support of consolidation at their own political peril.

But Barker’s 2013 legislative effort in seeking stateinitiated school consolidation in essence rewrote the political rules governing how the Legislature deals with consolidation.

In 2011, Gov. Haley Barbour’s Commission on Mississippi Education Structure talked about giving the state Board of Education authority to implement Barbour’s desire to consolidate the state’s 152 school districts down to 100 districts.

But a consultant to that ad hoc group recommended that 21 school districts be merged with other districts.

One of the hitches that stalled the Barbour commission’s work was the very question decided in Barker’s legislation between the

Starkville and Oktibbeha County schools — the notion of whether a “successful” school district could be forced to consolidate with a poor-performing district.

Turns out, that can happen.

By 2012, the Legislature’s Republican leadership had begun to deal with consolidation in a more piecemeal fashion — passing a bill to consolidate the six school districts in Bolivar County down to no more than three districts. In 2013, the U.S. Justice Department approved that plan.

Despite Mississippi’s historical recalcitrance in addressing the politically sensitive issue of school consolidation, most lawmakers and a couple of statewide officials have told me in recent days the they expect more consolidation legislation to be introduced — and passed — in the Mississippi Legislature.

What happened in Starkville and Oktibbeha County is now likely to happen in 10 more school districts – with more likely to come in the future.

To understand why Detroit look as it does, while the desolate Shanghai Richard Nixon visited in ‘72 is the great and gleaming metropolis of 2016, look to our trade deficits.

They also help explain America’s 2 percent growth, her deindustrialization, her shrinking share of the world economy, and the stagnation of U.S. wages as manufacturing jobs are replaced by service jobs.

Yet, with the exception of Trump, none of the GOP candidates seems willing to debate, defend or denounce the policies that eviscerated America – and empowered the People’s Republic.

Workers, however, know what our politicians refuse to discuss.

They are being sold out for the benefit of corporate elites who pay off those politicians with the big cash contributions that keep the parties flush.

Free trade is not a zerosum game. The losers are the workers whose jobs, factories and futures are shipped abroad, and the dead and dying towns left behind when the manufacturing plants shut down.

America is on a path of

national decline because, while we have been looking out for what is best for the “global economy,” our rivals have been looking out for what is best for their own nations.

Consider OPEC, which is reeling from the oil price collapse. Russia is colluding with Saudi Arabia and Iraq to cut production to firm up the market and prevent prices from falling further.

This is pure price fixing, but we all understand selfinterest.

What might a U.S. national-interest-based trade policy look like?

Controlling the largest market on earth, we might impose on foreign producers a cover charge, an admissions fee, a tariff, to get into our market.

Between the Civil War and World War I, under Republicans, the U.S. became the world’s greatest industrial power and a wholly self-sufficient nation. How? We taxed foreign goods entering the United States, but did not tax the profits of U.S. companies or the incomes of U.S. workers.

The difference between economic patriots and globalists who inhabit corpo-

rate-funded think tanks and public policy institutes is that the latter think of what is best for their corporate benefactors and the global economy. The former put America and Americans first.

Academics revere Adam Smith, David Ricardo and Richard Cobden.

But none of them ever built a great nation. Patriots look to Alexander Hamilton and those post-Civil War Republicans who built the greatest national industrial powerhouse the world had ever seen.

As father of a united Germany, Chancellor Bismarck said, when he decided to build Germany on the American and not the British model, “I see that those countries which possess protection are prospering, and that those countries which possess free trade are decaying.”

So it is true today. Unfortunately, it is America, now wedded to the fatal dogma of free trade, that is decaying.

Wild hog hunt draws dozens from three states

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

Addressing the evergrowing issue of dangerous wild hogs in the area, over 40 individuals on 11 teams competed in the first King of Mississippi Wild Hog Round-up on Thursday, Feb. 11 and Friday, Feb.12.

Organized by Righteous Men Guided Hog Hunts and sponsored by several local companies, a weighin for the hunt was held in the parking lot of Tractor Supply Co. on Saturday, Feb. 13.

“Participants were allowed to bring in any wild hog over 100 pounds,” explained Ricky Norman, founder of the Righteous Men Guided Hog Hunts. “During the weigh-in, we received

Over 40 hunters from three states turned out for the first King of Mississippi Wild Hog Round-up. over 65 hogs weighing in at a combined 8,000 pounds which was a nice

outcome.”

“We had a steady crowd coming in all day,” he

added.

Hunters from Mississippi, Alabama and Loui-

siana turned out for the event which featured several different categories

and the opportunity to win cash prizes.

Extremely well attended, over $2,500 was paid out to winners in the end.

“This is something I do as a hobby and as a way to help our local farmers,” said Norman. “If you give them the opportunity, hogs will destroy and eat almost anything, including your produce.”

Hoping to start a new tradition, Norman has plans to make the hunt an annual event.

“We hope to host it each year and watch it grow,” he said. “We are very thankful for those who came out and supported our efforts as well as Tractor Supply Co. for allowing us to use their parking lot.”

Recognize pitfalls ‘Lizzie’ is a delightfully British adventure of achievement Set during World War

BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez

Too many people who actually set goals often fail to attain them.

I will identify some of the predominant reasons this happens. Recognizing the pitfalls of goal achievement enables you to chart a successBryan ful course Golden to realizing your Dare to Live dreams.

Without Limits Y o u don’t believe it’s possible to attain your goal. If you don’t believe you can do it, you won’t. Your brain is programmed by your thoughts. When you instruct your mind that your goal is impossible, you will not reach it. You must first believe you can and will achieve your goal before you can do so.

You don’t believe you deserve your goal. Your mind subconsciously sabotages attaining anything you feel is not deserved. Any guilt about being successful causes this derailing.

Fears of success include the possibility of being criticized, ostracized, or ridiculed by those who have not attained the same goal. You must believe you do deserve your goal before you can achieve it.

You listen to naysayers. These negative people always have a litany of reasons you can’t or won’t succeed. They share their opinions with conviction. Listening to them is discouraging, filling you with doubt. If you believe their drivel, you’ll abandon your goal.

You have a goal that is not yours. Setting a goal based on someone else’s expectations sabotages success from the outset. It’s impossible to be passionate about a goal you didn’t pick. Even if you do achieve a goal imposed by someone else, it brings little, if any satisfaction. Your goal must be your own.

You have a goal with no perceived value.

When this is case, there is no incentive for the goal’s accomplishment.

It’s impossible to motivate yourself to work toward an objective with no benefits. This issue is often linked to a goal which is not yours. Pick a goal that has clear value to you.

You don’t have a plan to accomplish your goal. A goal without a plan is just a wish.

Hoping to reach a goal without a plan is pointless. You must have a step by step plan detailing what needs to be done to attain your goal. Each step must also be small enough to be manageable.

You don’t take action. Without action,

nothing happens. You can have a burning desire along with a detailed plan, but unless you take action nothing will be accomplished. Successfully reaching your goal requires consistently taking one step after another until you arrive at your destination.

You are not productive. Productivity is taking action which brings you closer to your goal.

Activity is being busy without making forward progress or being involved in activities not goal related. Keep track of the progress made towards your goal. Eliminate unproductive activities.

You give up. Setbacks are a normal part of reaching a goal. Failure is guaranteed only when you give up. Get right back up whenever you stumble and fall. Learn from mistakes. Make adjustments as needed. Determination and persistence is essential for success.

You don’t apply enough effort. A halfhearted try isn’t effective. Anything worthwhile takes effort. Without sufficient effort, you will give up at the first obstacle.

Rather than trying to accomplish a goal, make a commitment to yourself that you will do whatever it takes to reach your destination.

You tackle too many goals at once. Working on too many objectives simultaneously dilutes your effectiveness. Although having many goals is good, you need to prioritize the order in which you will accomplish them.

Working on too much at once reduces your productivity.

You can accomplish your goals. Avoid these pitfalls. Identify your goals, formulate a plan, and then take action.

Drive, discipline, and determination are important keys to your success.

“Lizzie and the Lost Baby” by Cheryl Blackford c.2016, Houghton Mifflin Harcourt $16.99 / higher in Canada 181 pages Honesty is the best policy.

You’ve known practically since you were born that lying was not a good thing. Tell the truth, you’ve been reminded. Say what really happened. Don’t mess with the facts. And, as in the new book “Lizzie and the Lost Baby” by Cheryl Blackford, that’s advice that grown-ups should heed, too.

Lizzie absolutely did not want to go.

But she knew she had to, and so did her brother, Peter. Mummy said it was for their safety because Daddy was away at war and the Germans could bomb Britain at any time.

All the children in Hull were sent to the English countryside to live with strangers that spring, whether they wanted it or not. And Lizzie didn’t want it – but she knew leaving was for the best.

And so it was that tenyear-old Lizzie and seven-year-old Peter were sent to Swaindale to live with a policeman named Fred Arbuthnot; his wife, Madge; and Madge’s dotty sister, Elsie.

Though Lizzie missed Mummy and Nana something awful, the English countryside was nice.

Peter found someone to play with nearby, and the scenery was lovely. There were cows and sheep, green grass, and things to do. Madge only asked that the children be prompt for lunchtime and not upset Elsie – both of which were very easy to do, until Lizzie found the baby.

She was laying on a dirty quilt on the grass, a little cherub with black curly hair, crying and all alone. Lizzie couldn’t imagine why anybody would abandon a baby like that – especially one as beautiful as the one she found. She hoped Madge would help her find the baby’s mother but, instead, Elsie took the baby as her own!

II, at a time when drastic measures were taken as needed, this story starts out with something to capture a kids’ imagination: Lizzie and her brother are sent far away from home.

Lizzie knew something wasn’t quite right, especially when she heard that a nearby Gypsy camp was looking for a baby that was missing. The baby’s brother, Elijah, thought Lizzie might know something, but the adults in Swaindale told her to keep quiet.

The local magistrate said Elsie could keep the baby. Mummy said the truth was always best.

What was Lizzie to do?

Truth… or consequences? Is honesty the best policy? “Lizzie and the Lost Baby” takes a good look at that question.

Set during World War II, at a time when drastic measures were taken as needed, this story starts out with something to capture a kids’ imagination: Lizzie and her brother are sent far away from home.

Though they’re safe in a lovely, bucolic place, it’s scary nonetheless but author Cheryl Blackford doesn’t let her characters linger on it; Lizzie is brave, wise, and responsible from the story’s

beginning, which continues throughout the book.

Because he’s a catalyst for Lizzie’s character, Blackford also gives Elijah a great storyline, too, which is likewise a fine lesson on tolerance for cultures of which kids might not be familiar.

Put them together and

you’ve got a well-done, delightfully British story that can be read or read aloud. For your 9-to-12year-old, “Lizzie and the Lost Baby” is a book she’ll honestly enjoy.

CHOOSE BIBLICAL VALUES “Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world. And the world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God abides forever” (1 John 2:15-17). John warns us about the danger of thinking the world is special or offers something of value.

The world and its lusts will not endure since it is not from God. A brief glimpse at the realities of life prove this.

While on television adultery is common and quickly forgotten, in real life it is full of pain, rejection, betrayal and a loss of trust. It is never quickly forgotten. While on television premarital sex is the norm, in real life it leads to unwanted pregnancies, painful decisions and even sexually transmitted diseases. While on television a little lie seldom does harm, in real life dishonesty can kill relationships.

Clearly, these are “values” God does not want His children to adopt.

But God did not ask us to leave the world. In fact, Jesus required just the opposite. “I do not ask Thee to take them out of the world, but to keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in the truth; Thy word is truth. As Thou didst send Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world” (John 17:15-18). We are left in the world on purpose. Our task is to shine as lights in a dark and evil world. “That you may prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world, holding fast the word of life” (Phil. 2:15-16). We cannot shine in a dark world if we are not in that world We have been left in the world as a way of leading people of the world away from sin and back to God. This requires some careful discernment. For some of us, it means we know what is going on around us, in spite of the evil it portrays, such as television or movies or music.

For others, it is avoiding these things to stand apart. The most important part of all this to me is Jesus’ message, “Sanctify them in the truth; Thy word is truth” (John 17:17).

The way to be in the world without becoming worldly is to stand decisively and resolutely on God’s truth. That truth will keep us from being led into evil. That truth will let us know right and wrong in all circumstances. It is the truth that will set us apart, while leaving us to live in the world.

CALENDAR CONTINUED FROM 1

Teacher performance incentives, differentiated diplomas, a modified accountability system, early college courses and career technical offerings are among the other changes the district is considering as part of its Forward First initiative. In addition to approving the calendar, the board authorized the superintendent to develop the new policies and procedures to bring to the board.

“When you are approved as a district of innovation,” said Superintendent Lee Childress,

“the law allows you to maintain that designation for five years because it is understood that it will take time to move through this and hopefully perfect it where it will be a system that works.”

He sees excitement among teachers and administrators for the changes to come.

“I think we’ve got an opportunity to make a difference,” said Childress. “I think once we get into it, while it’s a change, I think everybody will like it. We’ll have some growing pains, but we’ll work through those.”

Many of the changes

Pre-plan with

can be done at no cost, he said.

The 2016-2017 calendar will move to a nineweeks grading period rather than six weeks and will have a long fall break in October and a spring break in March. The two breaks will become the time for remediation efforts rather than at the end of the school year.

The extended-year program will continue as normal for this school year, however.

The calendar opens the year on Aug. 1 and concludes on June 15. No snow days are built into the calendar, and any days missed for weather will likely be made up during the spring break.

With the modified accountability system, the district will begin to use the Cambridge exams for the high school exit testing rather than the English II, Biology, U.S. History and Algebra I exams.

“However, our students will still have to take those exams,” said Childress.

Also, “We’re still going to have to administer the Mississippi Assessment Program exams. The reason for that is it’s a federal requirement.”

The focus on Cambridge will help the district to deepen student learning “rather than trying to race from one end of the textbook to the other and cover a large

Uber acknowledges Dalton complaints KALAMAZOO, Mich. — The Uber ride-hailing service acknowledged Monday that it received complaints about erratic driving by the suspect in the random shootings that killed six people in Kalamazoo, and a prosecutor said the man admitted his role in the attacks.

Jason Dalton, the 45-year-old former insurance adjuster, appeared briefly in court by video link and was charged with six counts of murder. A judge denied him bail.

During a talk with investigators, Dalton waived his right against self-incrimination and confessed his role in the shootings, Kalamazoo County Prosecutor Jeff Getting said.

Dalton admitted “that he took people’s lives,�

Kalamazoo police Det. Cory Ghiringhelli told the judge. The murder charges carry a mandatory life sentence.

Michigan does not have the death penalty.

Dalton picked up Uber fares after the first shooting and probably got more riders after the subsequent shootings, Getting said. Â

Sheriff: Teen killed 10-year-old sister FOUNTAIN, Fla. — The death of a 10-yearold girl, allegedly at the hands of her 15-yearold brother, stunned employees of a Florida sheriff’s office who had tried to help the family in the past, an authority with the office said Monday. “About three or four years ago, one of our deputies discovered the family living in basically a pole barn with walls that were covered with tarps,� said Maj. Tommy Ford of the Bay County Sheriff’s office. “We went out there and helped to put walls up and brought some food and Christmas presents for the kids.�

Deputies arrested the 15-year-old boy on Sunday afternoon after finding his sister’s body in a field near the home.

The girl was reported missing Sunday morning. The Associated Press does not generally name juveniles ac-

cused of crimes.

Ford said the boy became a suspect during the search and that he later confessed to killing his sister. In an arrest affidavit released by the department Monday afternoon, an officer who interviewed the boy wrote that he first told investigators that he shot his sister about 3 a.m. Sunday after mistaking her for a deer. The boy later said he saw someone attack his sister and he accidentally hit her while trying to fire at the attacker. The boy changed his story a third time and said that he accidentally shot his sister while trying to teach her how to shoot his rifle. Â

Cosby’s wife gives deposition in suit SPRINGFIELD, Mass. — Bill Cosby’s wife, an enigmatic figure who has publicly stood by her husband despite the dozens of sexual assault allegations against him, was deposed Monday in a defamation lawsuit filed against him by seven accusers.

The deposition, believed to be the first she has given since dozens of women came forward to accuse him of sex assault, was given under heavy security at the Springfield Marriott. Hotel staff cordoned off the area of the hotel near the conference room where Cosby gave her deposition and later pulled heavy draperies across the hallway so no one could see the door to the room.

Depositions in civil cases are typically given in private, with only the people being deposed, their lawyers and a stenographer in the room.

Written transcripts of depositions are generally sealed from public view because they are considered discovery materials shared between lawyers on both sides. Â

106-year-old meets Obama at reception WASHINGTON — At 106 years old, she’s seen more than a dozen presidents come and go, but Virginia McLaurin says she can finally die happy after meeting President Barack Obama.

Video of the centenarian shaking her groove with excitement quickly went viral on the Internet after last week’s Black History Month reception at the White House. The grandmother told The Associated Press that when she saw the president and first lady Michelle Obama in the flesh, “I was so happy, I started dancing.� “I’ve come a long ways, a long ways,�

McLaurin said in an interview outside her Washington home. “I just didn’t think I’d ever live to go this far in the world.�

For McLaurin, who said she was born in South Carolina in 1909, the White House invitation was a long time in the making. It’s been more than a year since she started a White House petition asking to meet the president — and offering to come to his house to make it easier. Â

GOP defense budget backers got millions WASHINGTON — House Republicans urging a steep increase in the Pentagon’s budget have received $10 million in campaign contributions over the course of their congressional careers from defense contractors that would benefit from higher levels of military spending.

The 34 GOP lawmakers, all members of the House Armed Services Committee, are pressing for an $18 billion increase in the 2017 budget year, which begins Oct. 1. The push is rooted in their position that the U.S. military has atrophied severely on President Barack Obama’s watch, leading America’s allies as well as adversaries to question the country’s will.

The bid also reflects the message GOP presidential candidates have hammered relentlessly on the campaign trail, where Obama has been cast as a feckless commander in chief.

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, last week unveiled his blueprint for a “Reaganstyle military buildup� to reverse the damage he said has been done during Obama’s two terms.

Cruz didn’t say exactly what his plan would cost.

District could take over failing schools JACKSON — A new statewide school district could take control of faltering local school districts and keep them indefinitely in hopes of improving academic performance, under a bill advancing in the Mississippi House.

The House Education Committee approved House Bill 990 Monday.

The achievement school district would take over any district rated “F’’ for two straight years, starting with yetto-be released state ratings for the 2015-2016 school year.

A seven-member board would run the district, with three appointments each by the governor and lieutenant governor. The state superintendent would appoint one member.

Districts could be run by charter operators. A district would remain in the achievement district until it scored a “C’’ rating or better for five years, plus a majority of parents and school employees voted to return it to local control.

PSC may keep some control over co-ops JACKSON — Mississippi utility regulators may have averted an attempt by electrical cooperatives to strip many powers of the Public Service Commission.

But the deal could leave the regulatory body without the power to order cooperatives to pay rooftop solar panel owners enough money to make residential solar worthwhile.

Lawmakers had introduced multiple bills backed by Mississippi’s electrical cooperatives after months of disputes over the commission’s attempts to expand regulation over cooperatives.

Key issues included whether the commission had power to order cooperatives to subsidize energy efficiency programs and residential solar panels, and to regulate cooperatives deposits and billing disputes.

another man outside the Madison County Courthouse in August 2015.

Madison County District Attorney Michael Guest says opening statements could come as early as Monday afternoon in the case against William Wells.

Wells was charged in the shooting death of Kendrick Armond Brown.

Police say Wells walked up and shot Brown, who was waiting outside the courthouse to appear in his own criminal case, possibly seeking revenge for the nonfatal shooting of his own mother.

Sherry Wells had been scheduled to testify against Brown.

Police investigate killing at strip club JACKSON — Police are investigating a fatal shooting at a Jackson strip club.

The Jackson Police Department said in a news release that officers responded to the Black Diamond Club on Saturday regarding reports of gunfire.

Police say several people were involved in an altercation and at least one person produced a gun and fired several shots inside the building and at the parking lot.

Thirty-six-year-old Dennis Evans and 36-year-old Sylvester Williams were shot and transported to a hospital.

Williams later succumbed to his injuries and was pronounced dead at the hospital.

Leaning tree gets stay of execution OCEAN SPRINGS — A tilted oak on Lover’s Lane has won a reprieve from the Ocean Springs

Board of Aldermen.

Fire Chief Jeff Ponson says it’s in the way of fire trucks. He wants it down.

The board voted two weeks ago to remove it.

The mayor vetoed that decision. Aldermen overrode the veto.

But Alderman Greg Denver tells the Mississippi Press they’re now considering lights or warning signs.

He says the board will probably again ask the landowner across the street to give up enough to widen the road. But Dixie Guice has repeatedly rejected such requests, saying that would jeopardize some of her trees.

Denver says Guice’s attorney says she’s ready to fight any use of eminent domain to take the land, all the way to the state Supreme Court. Â

Gulf casinos see 15 percent revenue rise BILOXI — January revenue of $100.5 million for Mississippi’s 12 Gulf Coast casinos is $13 million higher than the $87.3 million posted in January of last year. That is a 15 percent increase.

In a report on the latest figures in The Sun Herald, a local hospitality industry spokesman says the Scarlet Pearl, a new casino in D’Iberville, helped grow the market — instead of taking revenue from other casinos.

It was the first time January revenue for the south Mississippi market surpassed $100 million since 2008. “It’s a huge increase,� said Michael Bruffey, deputy director of the Mississippi Gaming and Hospitality Association.

Economists predict that U.S. consumer confidence declined this month after surging in January.

A strong job market and low gasoline prices helped boost U.S. consumer confidence last month, the second straight monthly gain.

Even so, the stock market’s volatile swings this year may be offsetting some of those positives in the minds of consumers. The Conference Board reveals its latest index on consumers’ confidence today.

Borrowing at full speed The average sales price of a new car or truck topped $34,000 for the first time in December, and Americans are borrowing record amounts to finance a car purchase.

So can people really afford this, and will prices ever fall?

Yes and probably not, says Eric Lyman, senior analyst with the TrueCar.com auto pricing website.

Buyers have used low interest rates and loans of seven years or longer to keep payments low. Throw in cheap gas, and they’re able to buy bigger vehicles like SUVs and trucks with pricey options. Used car prices are high, making new cars attractive.

As a result, the average new vehicle price in December hit a record $34,007. The average loan was at just under $29,000, another record, says Experian.

Consumer confidence

And with higher-priced SUVs in demand, more millennials reaching car-buying age and the average age of a U.S. car at 11.5 years, sales and prices should keep rising, Lyman predicted.

Sure, interest rates may rise slightly and thousands of leased cars will hit the market, pushing down used car prices.

But Lyman says that’s not enough to halt sales growth.

“We’re seeing that the positive forces are outweighing the negative forces,” said Lyman, who predicts growth will slow from the past few years but sales will still hit a record 18 million this year.

Lyman does issue a cautionary note: A volatile U.S. stock market could dent consumer confidence and slow sales. But that’s still unknown.

Rough going

Economic bellwether

Macy’s had a tough 2015 and it doesn’t look like the holiday season made things much better.

The department store operator, due to report its fiscal fourth-quarter results today, announced last month it would cut some 4,800 jobs and lowered its profit outlook after a miserable holiday season. Falling sales have hurt the company, which also operates Bloomingdale’s. Macy’s latest quarterly results are expected to be down from a year earlier, echoing the company’s performance in the previous three quarters.

The National Association of Realtors reports today its latest monthly tally of sales for previously occupied U.S. homes.

U.S. home sales rebounded in December after new regulations had delayed the completion of purchases in November. Total sales in 2015 were the most in nine years, as steady job growth and low mortgages drew more buyers into the market. Economists project that the pace of sales slowed slightly in January to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.4 million.

Counseling does not mean divorce WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: My wife and I have been married for 22 years and have two wonderful children. We both have college degrees and full-time jobs.

I am an optimistic introvert, and she is a pessimistic extrovert. We have never been close to each other socially. We have different interest and physical abilities. We also don’t communicate much, even on important issues.

I think conversations should be short and to the point, my wife can go on and on. She doesn’t even try anymore because she believes I have no interest.

Our sex life is almost nonexistent.

She has no interest in any type of intimacy.

We both contribute to the problems, and I want to change this. I want to be closer and find common ground. But when I suggested counseling, she refused. She says everyone she knows who has tried therapy has ended up in divorce court. She thinks if I ask for counseling, it means I want a divorce.

This puts me between a rock and a hard place.

What would you suggest?

— Stymied Husband Dear Stymied: We wonder how you two ever ended up married for 22 years. While it is true that some couples enter counseling as a pretense to

Annie’s Mailbox justify divorce, a good counselor will not deliberately steer you in that direction. We’ve printed many letters from people saying that counseling saved their relationships by helping each person express themselves clearly so that positive changes could be made.

Your wife has to trust you enough to believe that you want to salvage your marriage. Please show her this letter and tell her you wrote it. Say how much you want to be closer, and ask her to come with you for counseling so both of you can find a way back to each other. We hope she will cooperate.

Dear Annie: I want to respond to “Wondering Mom” about women who nurse their children without covering up. My 8-year-old son recently was exposed to a woman openly breastfeeding in my gym’s daycare. He came home and asked me if he could get a drink from my breasts. I wish these women would respect

my right as a parent to be present when my child is exposed to such things so I can explain what’s happening. — Not in Front of My Kid Please Dear Not: Your son is old enough to know that babies nurse, especially in a daycare center at the gym, which is not the same as whipping off your top at the local coffee shop. A mother is not going to wait to nurse her child until other parents are present to explain things. Here are a couple more letters on that subject: Dear Annie: What about a child who becomes so overwhelming hot, no matter how light the cover-up, that she pushes it aside? My daughter constantly exposes me in public and there’s nothing I can do about it. — Poughkeepsie Dear Annie: I nursed both of my children. I either covered the baby with my shirttail or used a light blanket to shield myself. I nursed in church, in front of the pastor during his sermon, and he had no clue. I agree that the “naked from the waist up” trend is pushing the right to nurse in our faces, and is not really a benefit for the child. Breastfeeding is wonderful, but not everyone has to watch. — Illinois

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian What has happened to “Harper,” the name the community has given to the stray dog which had resided at the intersection of Harper Road and Proper Street for many years? Read Staff Writer/ Photographer Kimberly Shelton’s story in the Wednesday Daily Corinthian.

Ever-present doubt prevents man from fully enjoying life D E A R ABBY: No matter what I do, I am never satisfied. I have a great wife and two great kids, Abigail and yet I alfeel like Van Buren ways I could have done better Dear Abby with my life.

I go to work and no matter how hard I work, I feel like I never get recognition for it. When I go out with friends, we have a great time, but I never feel like I am really part of the group. I feel like the outcast who gets invited just so they won’t feel bad.

I don’t know why I feel this way. I do suffer from depression and have spoken to a specialist. People often tell me that I spread myself too thin and never relax enough to enjoy my success. But how can I relax when I always feel unsatisfied with my efforts? -- JUST NOT SATISFIED DEAR NOT SATISFIED: A way to do that would be to start by examining why you are so hard on yourself. Whether it was caused by parents who didn’t give you the validation you needed while growing up or a lack of self-esteem, until you

understand why you are hurting yourself this way, your problem won’t be resolved. You say you have spoken to “a specialist” about your depression. Perhaps it’s time for another visit and a chat about what’s really bothering you.

DEAR ABBY: Years ago when I was married, I bought a beautiful two-carat solitaire ring as a sign of my accomplishment at work.

Now that I’m divorced, I continue to wear the ring on my wedding ring finger.

I love the ring, but my mother and friends say I am chasing away suitors who mistake it for an engagement ring. Do you agree with them? I don’t want to wear this on any other finger and have no plans to give it up.

-- STUBBORN IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR STUBBORN: I agree with your mother and your friends that what you’re doing sends a wrong message. When a woman wears a diamond on the third finger of her left hand in this culture, it means that she’s not available. Nowhere have I ever heard that it signifies that she’s successful at work.

However, I am puzzled about one thing: Can you please explain, since you refuse to wear the ring on another finger or

give it up, why you are asking me for advice?

DEAR ABBY: My husband talks out loud and carries on conversations with himself.

Sometimes when I’m in another room, I hear him talking, and I think he must be on the phone or that someone is here.

One time he was outside and speaking so loudly I thought a neighbor had dropped by, so I asked him which one. He admitted he was only talking to himself.

Is this a brain disorder, and is there a name for it? -- CURIOUS IN THE EAST DEAR CURIOUS: I don’t think it’s a brain disorder, so quit worrying. When I do this -- and I admit that I sometimes do -and my husband mentions it, I tell him I’m talking to the person who understands me the best.

(If it was something to worry about, I would probably have been certified long ago.)

P.S. If this bothers you, ask him to speak more softly.

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).

The saying goes that people don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. Put your energy into making sure that the people around you feel comfortable and cared for.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You appreciate that others know and have experienced things that you haven’t. That’s why you listen much more than you talk today. When you soak in a story, you are adding to who you are.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

With your curious mind you could find something exciting in just about any industry or interest, and yet the one you’re in is the hardest to get enthusiastic about today. That’s why it’s lucky to invite an outsider to your realm.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

New relationships are fragile.

Every small move of the dance establishes a precedent. The young rush in, unaware, while it takes great courage for experienced people to connect -- they know what’s really at stake.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Victory has made you cautious.

True, there’s so much more to lose now, but don’t let it stop you from acting as swiftly and decisively as you know you should.

Hesitate and you’ll waste this precious momentum you’ve got going.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You didn’t mean to eavesdrop, but you couldn’t help but overhear anyway. Now you know something you’re not sure you want to know. Better to process this a while. Chances are, it’s not yours to take action on.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You have rules for yourself, some of them consciously formulated, most of them unconsciously so.

It can be painful when life contradicts your rules. To relieve the discomfort, either change the rule or change the life.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

The current way may be working very well, but don’t let that stop you from seeing a distant future in which the variables are likely to change considerably.

Fight myopia with a Sagittarius

by your side.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There’s a time to mind your own business and do your thing, but right now you need to pay attention to the competition so you can strategize. A thorough analysis is in order.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You don’t have to move your head to understand the distractions to your right and left.

You know exactly what’s going on there. Your peripheral vision has become strong, lending power to your sixth sense.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

Be careful not to lean into the thing you want, or you’ll wind up paying more for it than you should. Hide your eagerness.

Or, better yet, find a way to want it less so you’re at an advantage in the negotiations.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Aiming at the best and highest may feel like overreaching, but this is not wishful thinking.

You’re essentially just being yourself. There’s something in you that tells you that you can do this. Listen. It’s right.

Corinth rebounded half of its 22 misses from the floor, and turned 10 of those into 18 second-chance points in beating Senatobia 50-43 in the first round of the Class 4A playoffs on Monday.

The Lady Warriors (16-10) will host Cleveland (19-8) on Friday.

The No. 2 seed from Division 3 beat Louisville 41-38 in overtime on Monday.

The winner advances to the eight-team State Tourna-

Lady Warriors make most of second chances ment in Jackson, which begins March 3 at Jackson State University. Corinth, which claimed its first division title on Friday, has never played in the State Tournament.

Corinth went on the road and knocked off Division 4 champion Leake Central in last season’s first-round game. The Lady Warriors fell at New Albany in second-round action, so second-year head coach Fred Stafford is well aware what playing as a No. 1 seed means.

“Playing at home makes a big difference,” said Staf-

ford. “It would be nice to have a big crowd on Friday.

“I wasn’t expecting a big crowd tonight, but I’m glad they showed up.”

Corinth never trailed and led by as many as nine in the opening half. Behind 15 points by Aundrea Adams and 12 second-chance points the Lady Warriors took a 27-21 lead into the break.

Adams finished the night with a game-high 24 points.

The senior also pulled down eight rebounds and was 8-of-12 from the free-throw line.

“Aundrea played great and stepped up in a big game,” said Stafford.

Che Curlee gave Corinth its first two double-digit leads of the contest.

The junior turned a Kristen Herman pass into transition early in the third as the lead swelled to 31-21.

Senatobia (14-16) cut the deficit back to 33-29 on the eighth straight point from Dakerria Allen.

Corinth outscored Senatobia 10-3 the last five minutes of the quarter, with Curlee’s and-one in transition stretching the lead to Please see ADVANCE | 13

BIGGERSVILLE — Jada Tubbs didn’t want her long and productive prep basketball career to end on Monday.

Tubbs scored 14 of her game-high 36 points in the fourth quarter, including four straight makes from the free-throw line the final 25.5 seconds, as Biggersville beat Blue Mountain 72-67 in the first round of the Class 1A playoffs.

Biggersville (19-8) will host Coldwater on Friday. The Lady Cougars beat Houlka in another first-round matchup.

Friday’s winner will move

onto the eight-team State Tournament, which begins March 3 at Jackson State University.

“Jada had a lot of guts in here,” said BHS Head Coach Cliff Little. “After what happened in the third quarter, she sealed the game for us.”

The Division 1-1A champion Lady Lions led the Lady Cougars, which finished 8-20, 28-15 after one.

With Tyleshia Davis getting loose for 23 in the first half, Biggersville took a seemingly comfortable 57-32 lead into intermission.

Blue Mountain had other plans.

The Lady Cougars outscored Biggersville 21-6 in the third, cutting the Lady Lions’ lead to 57-53 after three quarters. Tigi Knox scored 13 and Zanaiyah Daniel added eight as BM put Biggersville on upset alert.

“They just started hitting shots,” Little said of the BM rally. “No. 23 (Daniel) and No. 24 (Knox) got loose and went nuts.”

Biggersville managed just six in the frame, all courtesy Tubbs. The senior, who added a key blocked shot and rebound on a 3-point attempt late, scored 20 of Biggersville’s 24 second-half points.

“We got good looks, we just missed them,” said Little.

Home-court dominance reflects SEC’s parity The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Nowhere is it tougher to win a road game this season than in the Southeastern Conference.

Home teams have won 71.4 percent of the time in SEC games this season, the highest home winning percentage in league play of any Division I conference according to STATS LLC. The league is on pace for its highest home winning percentage in league

competition since 2006-07.

“Every game we’ve played on the road is an absolute war,” Kentucky coach John Calipari said. “I understand it’s us, and it’s the Super Bowl for everybody. But then I look around the league and I’m thinking teams are playing well at home. They’re playing with great confidence.

Maybe young teams are better at home than they are on the road.”

It’s a dramatic change from last year, when SEC home teams won only 53.2 percent of league games. That was the SEC’s lowest home winning percentage in league competition since 1996-97, according to STATS. When SEC coaches discuss the reasons for the home dominance this season, one word keeps coming up: Parity.

Last season, Kentucky

won all its conference games — home or away — and remained unbeaten all the way up to its NCAA semifinal loss to Wisconsin. This year, the SEC lacks a truly elite team that would be favored to beat anybody on any floor. The latest Top 25 has no SEC school listed among the top 15 teams.

Knicks sign Jimmer Fredette to 10-day contract The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Jimmer Fredette got another chance in the NBA, and even received some unexpected playing time at the end of the New York Knicks’ blowout loss.

Interim coach Kurt Rambis said before the game there were no plans to use Fredette on Monday night against Toronto, but then put the former college player of the year in with 1:49 left in a 122-95 defeat.

Fredette made a 3-pointer on his only shot attempt, hours after signing a 10-day contract.

Before the game, Rambis didn’t sound committed to using Fredette at all while he’s here.

“He’s going to have to exhibit bringing something to the table that’s better than what we already have here.

He’s going to have to outplay somebody,” Rambis said.

“I’m not going to displace

somebody that’s been here all year and has been working hard in practice, and we kind of know what the individuals on our team bring, their strengths and weaknesses.

So if there’s something that he could bring that’s a little bit better, then he’ll get an opportunity. If not, it’s really hard to just throw somebody in like that, but we’ll see.”

Fredette has spent most of the season with Westchester, the Knicks’ NBA Develop-

ment League affiliate, averaging 21.8 points and shooting 40.5 percent from 3-point range. He was the MVP of the NBA D-League All-Star Game after scoring 35 points.

“I feel like I’m pretty confident with my ability right now, just being able to get consistent minutes on a nightly basis, being able to go out there and show what I can do again and feel comfortable Please see KNICKS | 13

43-32 after three.

Corinth got a little sloppy in the fourth.

Five turnovers and some ill-advised shots saw a 14-point fourthquarter led cut to five — at 48-43 — with 1:12 remaining in the elimination game.

“We got a little uneasy out there and looked like we didn’t know what we were doing,” said Stafford. “We got a little rattled. If that happened on the road, it might have been a different story.”

and the worst teams in the league has never been smaller,” Auburn coach Bruce Pearl said.

As a result of that, there’s a logjam in the conference standings.

Kentucky (20-7, 10-4) owns a one-game lead over South Carolina (22-5, 9-5), Texas A&M (20-7, 9-5) and LSU (16-11, 9-5) in the race for the regular-season title. Only once before in the last 13 seasons has the top seed in the SEC Tournament finished the regular season with as many as four conference losses.

The last time everyone in the SEC lost at least five conference games was 1991, when Mississippi State and LSU tied for first place with 13-5 league records.

“There’s not as big a difference (this year) between the teams,” Georgia coach Mark Fox said, “so the advantage then that separates you sometimes can be the homecourt advantage, which we all know gives you a couple of points here and there.”

That home-court advantage has enabled the conference’s weakest teams to pull some major surprises.

South Carolina lost last week at Missouri, which sits alone in the

SEC basement. Auburn is next-to-last in the SEC standings but has a home victory over firstplace Kentucky on its resume.

Because so many SEC teams are struggling to win on the road, there is plenty of intrigue heading into the final two weeks of the regular season and the SEC tournament next month in Nashville, Tennessee.

The only SEC teams in the Top 25 are No. 16 Kentucky and No. 21 Texas A&M. They’re also the lone SEC teams in the top 30 of the RPI, with Kentucky 12th and Texas A&M 24th.

But the SEC does have three other top-50 RPI teams in South Carolina (31st), Florida (32nd) and Alabama (48th).

That doesn’t even include Vanderbilt and LSU, teams that may be playing their way out of NCAA Tournament atlarge consideration after opening the season with high expectations.

“I think we’re heading in the direction where we’re going to have six teams minimum in the tournament,” Alabama coach Avery Johnson said.

The SEC’s postseason contenders could improve their chances by getting more road wins.

This season, that’s easier said than done.

playing a lot of minutes and getting my shots off and knowing exactly where I’m going to get my shots,” Fredette said.

“And then continuing to work defensively, and I feel like I’ve gotten better at that end of the floor as well.” Fredette was the No. 10 pick in the 2011 draft after leading the nation with 28.9 points per game that season at BYU. But he has managed just 6.0 per game for three teams in the NBA, including a brief stint with New Orleans earlier this season.

Asked what he had

seen of Fredette at Westchester to think he could be successful this time, Rambis said: “Well, a lot of that comes from management, too.”

“He’s had some good offensive nights there, he’s also struggled shooting the basketball,” he said. “But he’s been in the league a little bit, he’s had some moments in the league and he is somebody that can shoot the ball, and if there’s a time when we need that sort of versatility, that floor spacing, somebody that’s very aggressive offensively, then that might be something that we’d use.”

Manfred closer to final decision on domestic violence cases

BY JANIE MCCAULEY AP Baseball Writer

PHOENIX — Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred says he has made “additional progress” toward decisions on two of the first three cases under Major League Baseball’s domestic violence policy and he expects an announcement in the next couple of days.

“The substance of this policy uses a ‘just cause’ standard and also creates kind of a clean slate,” Manfred said, speaking Monday during his visit to the Cactus League in Arizona.

“I am giving really thorough consideration to the

cases that I have in front of me and thinking their relevance obviously to the individual players, the individual facts most important, but also with an eye toward starting something new. It’s important to try to get these as right as possible. ... We’re close to having an announcement with respect to at two of the three.”

Manfred again would not specify which two cases he was going to rule on first. MLB is investigating New York Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman, Colorado Rockies shortstop Jose Reyes and Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Yasiel

Puig.

While the idea of expansion remains intriguing to Manfred, he said nothing would happen until a new collective bargaining agreement is in place to replace the deal that expires Dec. 1. He has said Oakland and Tampa Bay likely must solve their ballpark issues before expansion could be explored.

“The idea of having nice even numbers in each league would be a good thing,” he said of adding a club each to the American and National Leagues.

“The timeline, it’s not immediate. It’s not a topic we would begin to consider

until we have a new agreement in place.”

Also, Manfred said there are discussions about a regular-season game in Europe though it might need to be at a non-traditional time in the schedule given weather considerations.

Regular-season games in Puerto Rico and a spring training contest in Cuba next month involving Tampa Bay also are in the works.

“We are interested in playing somewhere in Europe, London in particular,” Manfred said.

For cities that have passed ordinances banning smokeless tobacco in

ballparks and other sporting venues — such as San Francisco and Boston — Manfred said players must follow the law.

“Major league players are citizens,” he said.

“Municipalities pass laws.

We expect that our players will comply with those laws.”

When it comes to the small-budget Athletics, Manfred would like the team to work to find a suitable home in its current location while leaving it to the club to decide on the best site option.

“I would like the A’s to find a site that’s within their current market of

Oakland,” he said. “That’s a local issue. I’m sure they’ll make a sound analysis and a good decision on the site they think is best.”

Acquired by the Yankees from the Cincinnati Reds in a December trade, Chapman is under investigation for an incident at his house in Florida in October involving his girlfriend. Chapman is alleged to have fired a gun during the incident.

Prosecutors declined to file charges. Chapman has said he would appeal any suspension to baseball’s arbitrator, his right under the policy.
