Sportsplex goes to auction block BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
A Corinth fixture appears to be coming to an end. The Corinth YMCA/Sportsplex is set to be sold to the highest bidder on Friday.
RREF RB Acquisitions, LLC has assigned to RREF RB SBLMS, LLC the deed of the Sportsplex. The property and all improvements located thereon will to be auctioned from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on the front steps
of the Alcorn County Courthouse after default was made on a loan. During its almost 70 years in Corinth, the YMCA/Sportsplex influenced the lives of countless young people through its many
programs. In September of 1945, a resolution was passed seeking to incorporate as the Young Men’s Christian Association of Corinth. On Feb. 23 of the following year, a charter was granted
from the Southern Area Council of the YMCA and the National Council of the YMCA as the Corinth Y was officially born. In more recent years, the Corinth Y became the Sportsplex.
Winter weather knocks NWS: Another garbage service off track round on the way BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
County garbage collection is getting back on schedule this week after truck troubles and winter storms combined to knock the service off track. A couple of trucks being out of commission alone would have been enough to cause serious issues for the county’s
sanitation service, but the county also faced repeated winter storms, and garbage collection fell behind. “We should get back on schedule and want to apologize for the inconvenience it has caused people in the county,” said Board of Supervisors President Lowell Hinton. “I think probably all five of us
have gotten phone calls.” All three trucks were back operational Monday morning. County employees who don’t usually deal with sanitation pitched in to help get garbage collected while the trucks were down. The county is currently lookPlease see BOARD | 2

Winter isn’t ready to take a break. On Monday, the Corinth Street Department was getting ready for round four, which will see another winter storm bring the potential for significant sleet and minor snow accumulations Wednesday afternoon and evening, according to the
Memphis office of the National Weather Service. “We had cleaned up our equipment and put it away,” said Street Commissioner Philip Verdung. “We’re getting it back out again.” With the salt and sand supplies replenished, trucks will be ready to hit the street if needed. “It looks like it’s going to rain Please see WEATHER | 2
‘Images to Poetry’: Group hosts writing workshop BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
“That’s my last Duchess painted on the wall, looking as if she were alive. I call that piece a wonder now; Fra Pandolf’s hands worked busily a day, and there she stands. Will’t please you sit and look at her?” – ‘My Last Duchess’ by Robert Browning Transforming pictures into words, the Crossroads Poetry Project will host its sixth poetry writing workshop from 10 a.m. until noon on Saturday, March 7 at the Corinth Public Library. Taught by instructor Susan Bailey, the workshop, titled “Images to Poetry,” will focus on translating that which is seen into that which is written. “The images will be artwork by local artist Jaylene Whitehurst which will hang in the library’s conference room for the month of March,” said Autry Davis, president of the Crossroads Poetry Project. “We hope to have a large turnout on Saturday.” According to Davis, it was a casual conversation with a friend which led to the development of the workshop’s theme. “Jaylene and I had discussed the idea about three years ago and knew Susan was interested in doing a workshop for us,” he said.
“She brought up the idea of using images to write poetry – the very same concept we had discussed. So, when we got ready to put together the workshops for the season, we decided to add it to the schedule.” Popular with students from city and county schools, the workshop is open to everyone in the community. With a myriad of colorful paintings from which to choose, poets are sure to find a piece which resonates with them and sparks their creativity. “These are all my works from the last few years,” said Jaylene Whitehurst, an avid painter and art enthusiast. “I tried to bring a variety of paintings for points of connection. Some pieces will be recognizable images while others will be purely abstract.” Whitehurst said she was intrigued by the idea of creating poetry from artistic influence. “We have a visceral response to color and shape,” she said. “I wanted to give the writers something they could really dip their pens into.” Using an object from a painting as their starting point, students will expand and develop their ideas from there. “I’m going to go with the traditional Robert Browning “My

Gunn: Tax phase-out won’t cost state money BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — House Speaker Philip Gunn used an analogy involving goats and church tithing Monday to make the point that Mississippi would never lose money under a long-term proposal to phase out the state personal income tax. Under a bill that has passed the House and awaits Senate debate, the personal income tax would be reduced a bit at a time, and only during
years when state revenue increases at least 3 percent. Under the speediest scenario, the tax would disappear after 15 years. If the economy sputters, the phaseout would take longer. “I think a lot of people have failed to understand it,” Gunn, R-Clinton, said Monday at a forum sponsored by the Capitol press corps and Mississippi State University’s Stennis Institute of Government. Gunn, who is a Baptist church elder, compared the tax cut proposal to
tithing at church. “You give a tithe out of your increase. At least, that’s my understanding of scripture,” Gunn said. “If you start the year and you’ve 10 goats and you end the year with 10 goats, you don’t give a tithe because you haven’t had any increase,” he said. “But if you start the year with 10 goats and you finish the year with 20 goats, according to scripture you give a tenth. So, you’re going to give one goat to the church. But you get to keep the other nine.”
Mississippi’s current budget is just over $6 billion, with about $1.7 billion coming from the state income tax. Critics say eliminating the state income tax, even slowly, would hurt Mississippi’s ability to pay for schools, roads and other services. Among them is Nancy Loome, head of the Parents’ Campaign, a group that lobbies for public-school funding. “It shows a complete disregard for the welfare of the people they were elected to serve,” Loome
wrote in a mass email after the bill passed the House. “It demonstrates a ‘let them eat cake’ attitude as schools remain underfunded by $257 million, roads and bridges crumble, children remain in abusive homes due to too few social workers at the Department of Human Services, Mississippians with mental illnesses fend for themselves without proper care, and state services fall short in countless other ways that diminish the quality of life for Mississippians gener-
New FDA official inherits projects, challenges BY MATTHEW PERRONE & MICHAEL FELBERBAUM Associated Press
WASHINGTON — One of the nation’s leading medical researchers joined the Food and Drug Administration on Monday, taking on the agency’s No. 2 leadership job at a critical juncture for prescription drugs, medical devices and tobacco products. Dr. Robert Califf comes to the job of FDA deputy commissioner after more than 30 years as a researcher and administrator at Duke University. But Califf, 63, is no stranger to FDA issues. For years he served on committees that advise the FDA on scientific and medical matters. And he was considered for the agency’s top job at least twice, under the administrations of Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama. The timing of his appointment has raised speculation that he may eventually be nominated to lead the agency. The week after announcing Califf’s new position, FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg said she would be leaving the agency after nearly six years on the job. Currently, the FDA’s chief scientist is serving as acting head of the agency. A leading expert in cardiology and medical study design, FDA watchers say Califf would be a natural fit for the job. “In terms of running clinical trials, there’s nobody better in cardiovascular medicine than Rob Califf,” says Ira Loss, an industry analyst. “So why not
“In terms of running clinical trials, there’s nobody better in cardiovascular medicine than Rob Califf.” Ira Loss Industry analyst put the best guy out there in charge?” Regardless of his job title, Califf will inherit a raft of projects and potential challenges, including unfinished tobacco regulations and proposals from Republican lawmakers focused on streamlining product reviews. Here’s a look at what awaits the FDA’s newest leader:
Republican reforms With oversight of drugs and medical devices, Califf will need to respond to legislation from Congress designed to accelerate approvals for those products. A nearly-400 page draft bill released by House Republicans in January includes dozens of proposals designed to streamline FDA reviews, such as allowing the agency to approve drugs based on early-stage research. Such proposals, backed by industry, could shave years off product development times, boosting company profits. Califf’s work at Duke’s Translational Medicine Institute has

Last Duchess” approach, where from a painting, a story emerges,” said instructor Susan Bailey. “Poets through the centuries have used art as their starting point and vice versa.” She demonstrated by calling attention to a large pink circle embellishing one of the paintings. “You see that dot over there? It’s very womb like to me,” she said. “That’s what I think of when I see it. So, I would take that idea, run with it, and see how it develops from there.”
focused on new approaches to structuring clinical trials. A presentation he delivered last May advocates “disrupting clinical research,” suggesting he might be open to some of the proposals for remaking drug and device regulations. But FDA watchers say Califf will need to work with Congress to identify which ideas have scientific merit. “I think Califf will be good to give the real world opinion to these guys who are listening mostly to industry,” said Loss.
Stretched budget Another challenge will be making sure Congress funds whatever new duties it assigns the FDA. For years, FDA scientists have taken on increasing responsibilities with few additional resources. For instance, the FDA is now implementing new regulations for compounding pharmacies, specialty businesses that were previously outside FDA’s jurisdiction. Though the additional oversight is expected to cost $25 million, the agency has not received any new funds to carry out this work. “It’s coming to the point where you can’t run the agency anymore if you’re getting new responsibilities but without additional funding,” said Wayne Pine, a former FDA official who now consults for Apco Worldwide, a public relations firm.
Tobacco regulation Many of the biggest challeng-
es are still ahead on the agency’s efforts to regulate tobacco. The FDA must assess the science for what would best improve public health, but it cannot ban nicotine or cigarettes outright. While the FDA has made some progress since it was granted authority to regulate the industry in 2009, it has yet to issue final regulations on popular electronic cigarettes, as well as cigars, hookah, nicotine gels, pipe tobacco and dissolvable tobacco. Last April, the FDA for the first time proposed a set of regulations for e-cigarettes, including banning sales to minors and requiring health warning labels, as well as approving new products. The agency has said its proposal sets a foundation for regulating the products, but the rules wouldn’t immediately ban the wide array of flavors or styles of e-cigarettes or curb marketing. There’s no timetable for the final rules. The industry also is awaiting the agency’s newest proposals for graphic warning labels for cigarette packs, the first of which were shot down by legal challenges. The FDA also is continuing to evaluate the public health impacts of menthol cigarettes. The agency faces an April deadline to submit reports to Congress on the public heath impact of raising the minimum tobacco purchase age to over 18, and how well the public understands the health consequences of using tobacco products.
ally.” Gunn unveiled the proposal last week, two days before it passed the House. The Senate has passed a separate bill that would phase out the business franchise tax and a portion of the state income tax. The price tag on that plan is about $382 million. The Senate bill awaits House consideration. Legislators have until late March to agree on a tax plan, or to kill the proposals that have been made.
City Board Agenda The Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen will meet at 5 p.m. today. The agenda includes: ■ Recognize additional EMS personnel (Lashonda Sorrell) ■ Magnolia Regional Health Center audit, financials and quarterly update ■ Resolution to adopt safety mission statement for employees ■ Kansas City Southern parking area ■ Continued property cleanup hearings for 1431 Cruise, 1421 Cruise and 1211 Waldron ■ Reports of the department heads ■ Payment requests on sewer rehabilitation contracts ■ Engineering services invoice ■ Grant application for historic route improvements ■ Consider request regarding city property near the intersection of Cemetery Street and Droke Road ■ Consider status of zoning and business license issues — downtown business ■ Consider zoning variance applications from Corinth Medical Services, Kenneth Williams, Greg Moore, Dane Aube, Rick Willis and Fastenal ■ Schedule public hearing for rezoning application — Rogers
BOARD Echoing her sentiments, the featured artist expressed her excitement to see what connections would be made by participating students. “I intentionally left off the names of the paintings because I didn’t want them to come in with any preconceived notions,” said Whitehurst. “I want them to form their own opinions and travel wherever the muse takes them.” “I am very please to be able to put my artwork in front of them,” she added. “Art isn’t really serving its purpose unless it’s being shared with others.”

ing into the lease-purchase of three new sanitation trucks. Supervisors convened Monday for a light agenda that included the following business: ■ The board voted to terminate the contract with CCI for inmate telephone service at the regional correctional facility after not receiving payments for the last four months. The contract calls for the county to be paid on a commission basis. Sheriff Charles Rinehart said the county will have several other proposals for the service to consider. ■ The board approved the hir-
ing of Debbie G. Stolz as the new licensed practical nurse at the correctional facility. ■ The bid opening for the renovations and site improvements at the former Chadco building for Avectus Healthcare Solutions is delayed until April 6 because a site visit by the Mississippi Department of Archives and History was twice postponed due to winter storms. ■ Supervisors tabled bids for general roadwork. A motion to accept the low bid died with no second after some discussion of whether it’s better to get price quotes on individual jobs as they arise rather than being tied to one contractor.
■ The board approved taking a county holiday on Good Friday, April 3, in place of Confederate Memorial Day, April 27. ■ In its next meeting, the board will consider an appointment to the Region IV Mental Health Board of Directors. The term of Sherry Dalton is expiring. ■ Cook Coggin Engineers reported that the park expansion project should be ready to go out for bids next week. ■ The board approved school bus turnarounds at 536A County Road 512 and 15 County Road 568. ■ The next regular meeting of the Board of Supervisors is 9 a.m. Monday, March 16.

right up until it turns over to snow, so we probably won’t be able to do much in terms of pre-treatment,” he said. As always with winter storms, the forecast is hard to pin down, and National Weather Service Meteorologist Andy Sniezak declined to predict accumulations. “Probably during the afternoon on Wednesday, we’ll see rain change over to a mix of rain, freezing rain and sleet,” he said. “By evening, it should be mainly in the form of sleet, and late Wednesday night it might change over to a brief period of snow.” With the temperature reaching the upper 60s today, the ground will be on the warm side at the onset of the storm, he said. The weather service expects travel hazards across the Mid-South as the temperature drops to the low 20s Wednesday night and struggles to reach the freezing point on Thursday, when a slight chance of snow continues in the morning hours. The repeated winter storms are doing no favors for city streets. “We’ve seen as many potholes in the last three weeks as we would typically see throughout an entire season,” said Verdung. “We’re trying to keep the worst of them passable now until weather gets a little bit better where we can go in and do some better repairs to them.”

Breakdown of state legislative races can or independent opponent.
BY JEFF AMY Today is Tuesday, March 3, the 62nd day of 2015. There are 303 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On March 3, 1945, the Allies fully secured the Philippine capital of Manila from Japanese forces during World War II.
On this date: In 1845, Florida became the 27th state. In 1849, the U.S. Department of the Interior was established. In 1913, more than 5,000 suffragists marched down Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington D.C., a day before the presidential inauguration of Woodrow Wilson. In 1923, Time magazine, founded by Briton Hadden and Henry R. Luce, made its debut. In 1931, “The StarSpangled Banner” became the national anthem of the United States as President Herbert Hoover signed a congressional resolution. In 1934, bank robber John Dillinger escaped from the Lake County Jail in Crown Point, Indiana, along with another prisoner, Herbert Youngblood. In 1959, the United States launched the Pioneer 4 spacecraft, which flew by the moon. Comedian Lou Costello died in East Los Angeles three days before his 53rd birthday. In 1969, Apollo 9 blasted off from Cape Kennedy on a mission to test the lunar module. In 1974, a Turkish Airlines DC-10 crashed shortly after takeoff from Orly Airport in Paris, killing all 346 people on board. In 1985, coal miners in Britain voted to end a year-long strike that proved to be the longest and most violent walkout in British history. The comedy-drama series “Moonlighting,” starring Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis, premiered on ABC-TV. In 1991, motorist Rodney King was severely beaten by Los Angeles police officers in a scene captured on amateur video. Twenty-five people were killed when a United Airlines Boeing 737200 crashed while approaching the Colorado Springs airport. Ten years ago: President George W. Bush visited CIA headquarters, where he promised agency employees they would retain an “incredibly vital” role in safeguarding the nation’s security despite the creation of a new post of national director of intelligence.

Judge puts Google investigation on hold Mills enters BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — The Mississippi attorney general’s attempt to investigate Google is on hold for at least four more months. U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate on Monday granted Google’s request for a preliminary injunction, preventing Attorney General Jim Hood from going through with a subpoena meant to examine whether Google is facilitating others’ illegal activities on its sites. The injunction will also bar Hood from filing civil or criminal charges for now. The Internet giant, based in Mountain View, California, argued that Hood’s investigation is blocked by a 1996 federal law that says Internet services are immune from lawsuits over what third parties say using the services. “At this point, Google has the better part of the argument on the reach of the Communications Decency Act of 1996,” Wingate said in a ruling read from the bench. Wingate, in discussions with lawyers Monday in court, laid out a schedule for each side to seek documents and depose witnesses over 90 days, with arguments on a final ruling in the case to follow this summer.
“The fact that the court has issued an injunction does not mean the court has reached a final decision in the case — just that the court wishes to maintain the status quo,” Wingate said. The showdown between Google and Hood had been building for several years, but it escalated last fall when Hood sent a 79-page subpoena to Google. That document demanded the company produce information on subjects including whether Google is helping criminals by allowing its search engine to lead to pirated music, by having its autocomplete function suggest illegal activities and by sharing YouTube ad revenue with the makers of videos promoting illegal drug sales. Hood pledged to appeal the injunction to the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, maintaining his position that any dispute over the subpoena belongs in Mississippi state court. “If attorneys general are unable to enforce state drug and consumer laws simply because a company uses the Internet, then this should be a wake-up call to all Americans that our children can simply type in ‘buy drugs’ and Google will guide them through its auto-complete feature,” Hood
said in a statement. Google, though, has argued Hood is infringing on its free speech rights. The Internet giant and its supporters say Hood is part of a covert campaign by movie studios to use legal action to achieve enhanced piracy protection that Congress has rejected. The company says a letter that Hood sent Google that was largely drafted by the Motion Picture Association of America, and notes that former Mississippi Attorney General Mike Moore was hired by the Digital Citizens Alliance, a nonprofit group funded by movie studios and other companies. “We’re pleased with the court’s ruling, which recognizes that the MPAA’s long-running campaign to censor the web... — is contrary to federal law,” Google General Counsel Kent Walker said in a statement. Hood’s office has said it’s only working with people and companies harmed by problems with Google services. “Ultimately what lies in the balance of a final court decision is whether it will be more difficult for state law enforcement officials to protect victims of online crime,” said Adam Benson, deputy executive director of the Digital Citizens Alliance.

JACKSON — Attorney Chip Mills of Fulton is entering a special election to fill an empty U.S. House seat in north Mississippi. The 30-year-old Mills said Monday that he believes Washington is broken and it’s time for “the next generation of conservative leaders” to serve in Congress. He’s the fourth declared candidate in the nonpartisan race to succeed Republican U.S. Rep. Alan Nunnelee, who died of brain cancer Feb. 6. State Sen. Nancy Collins of Tupelo, district attorney Trent Kelly of Saltillo and attorney Quentin Whitwell of Oxford said last week that they are running in the special election. Qualifying deadline is March 27, the election is May 12 and a runoff is June 2. The winner will serve most of a two-year term that ends in January 2017.

Shock over GOP leadership’s tax cut agenda defies logic STARKVILLE — So 2015 is a courthouse-to-statehouse election year in Mississippi and the state’s Republican leadership is pushing and shoving to see which one of them can offer Mississippi Sid Salter voters – particularly MissisColumnist sippi voters in the state’s GOP primary Top 15 counties – the most tax relief. That’s not particularly surprising. What is surprising is the shock those proposals seem to have generated among their Democrat political opponents and the public advocacy groups that represent them. First came Republican Gov. Phil Bryant who initially proposed a $79 million incometax reduction aimed at people earning less than $53,000 a year. Then came Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves with a $382 million to phase out Mississippi’s business franchise tax over 10 years and reduce some income taxes. Then came House Speaker Philip Gunn with a plan to eliminate the state’s $1.7 billion individual income tax over a 15-year period. The legislation contains a 3 percent revenue growth trigger, however, that could more realistically make that as much as a 30year process. Democrats in the House, honest brokers like Reps. Cecil Brown and Bobby Moak, exploded in criticism of Gunn’s individual income tax plan. They pointed out that cutting the second largest single source of state general fund revenue in individual income tax would shift the existing state tax burden and force devastating budget cuts. The notion that the House plan represents a tax shift is one that is, for the lack of a better word, true. Here’s why. In the state’s 82 counties, 15 counties pay the majority of individual income taxes. Based on FY 2012 numbers, taxpayers in those 15 counties paid $850.7 million or 61.2 percent of the total $1.38 billion collected statewide from the 82 counties: Hind s($128.9 million), Madison ($106.3 million), DeSoto ($93.6 million), Rankin ($91.8 million), Harrison($87.7 million), Jackson($73.8 million), Lee($48.3 million), Forrest ($44.9 million), Lauderdale ($39.5 million), Lamar ($32.1 million), Jones ($30.8 million), Lafayette ($27.8 million), Lowndes ($26.8 million), Warren ($24.08 million), and Pearl River ($21.2 million). Based on population distributions and past voter behavior, the 15 counties listed above are the counties Republican candidates need to win in order to prevail in a Republican primary and need to carry in a general election as well. Top Republican counties correlate as top tax-paying counties as well. Voters in those counties are in fact paying the most individual income taxes. So there’s not a lot of political intrigue as to why Gunn, Reeves and Bryant are each authoring variations on a tax-cutting theme. Scholarly research on cutting income tax is a mixed bag. The 1997 book “Growth and Variability in State Tax Revenue: An Anatomy of State Fiscal Crises” by Randall G. Holcombe and Russell S. Sobel points out that historically, Mississippi has had a “more stable personal income tax base than a retail sales tax base.” But a more relevant detail is found in research from Lake Forest College’s Richard F. Dye, who recorded the growth (of lack of it) in Mississippi’s tax revenues between FY 1999 and FY 2003. Only twice in that span of time would Mississippi’s tax revenues growth have triggered the individual income tax cut authorized in Gunn’s legislation. FY 2000, FY 2001, and FY 2002 all saw negative growth in overall state tax revenues. Daily Caller senior editor Jamie Weinstein reported in July that supply-side economists Arthur Laffer and Stephen Moore in 2014 studied the nine “no income tax” states (Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, Wyoming, Tennessee and New Hampshire) for population, gross state product, employment, and state and local tax revenue. Their findings? The “no income tax” states outperformed high income tax states. (Daily Corinthian columnist Sid Salter is syndicated across the state.

Election-year tax cuts inspire arguments JACKSON — It’s election year, and Mississippi policymakers are engaged in an escalating debate over who can offer the biggest, juiciest tax cut. The resolution is weeks away, with legislators facing a late March deadline to agree on tax and spending plans. It’s not clear what sort of tax cut will survive, if any. That could depend on a clash of wills and a fight over which legislators can claim most credit for the final product. The Senate Democratic Leader, Hob Bryan of Amory, said with more than a bit of exasperation in his voice last week that the Republican-led effort to reduce revenue could undermine budgets for schools, transportation and other vital state services. “There’s never been anything like what’s going on this year,” Bryan said. “I’m inclined to offer a constitutional amendment to prohibit the Legislature from convening during election years.” Those pushing for tax cuts, including Republican
Rep. Mark Formby of Picayune, say letting people keep more of what they earn will Emily stimulate the Wagster economy. “GovernPettus ment producCapitol Dome es nothing except what it gains from the pocket of the taxpayer,” Formby said. For generations, Mississippi has been one of the poorest states in the nation. The state-funded portion of the annual budget is just over $6 billion now, with billions more from the federal government. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant said months ago that he wants to reduce the state income tax for people earning less than about $53,000 a year. His proposal would return $79 million a year to about 300,000 households, for an average tax cut of about $250 a year. The cut would take effect only in years when state revenue grows at least 3 percent. Next up was Republican
Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, who proposed phasing out both the business franchise tax and one portion of the state income tax. The estimated price tag on his plan is $382 million. Not to be outdone, Republican House Speaker Philip Gunn proposed a $1.7 billion plan to phase out the state personal income tax over 15 years, with cuts coming only in years that state revenue grows at least 3 percent. The personal income tax is one of the largest sources of state revenue. The Reeves plan is Senate Bill 283 and it has passed the Senate. The Gunn plan is House Bill 1629 and it has passed the House. The two chambers are exchanging bills for more work. For now, the Bryant plan is nowhere to be seen, but it could become an option for legislators to consider during final negotiations. The House debate was particularly contentious. Democrats warned that Republicans were trying to create campaign fodder: Imagine postcards or radio commercials that
label people as tax-andspend liberals. To combat that, Democrats offered 10 amendments that would force Republicans to go on record against certain types of tax cuts, including a reduction in grocery taxes. One amendment said the income tax could be phased out only if the school budget formula, the Mississippi Adequate Education Program, were fully funded for three consecutive years. MAEP was put into law in 1997 as a way to give schools enough money to meet midlevel academic standards, but it has been fully funded only twice, and those were not consecutive years. All of the Democrats’ amendments failed. But in losing those votes, some Democrats got part of what they wanted — just as some Republicans will get part of what they want even if all the proposals die. They got a chance to say they voted for tax cuts, and the other party voted against them. (Daily Corinthian columnist Emily Wagster Pettus is a writer for the Associated Press based in Jackson.)
Put a stop to the immigration flood Washington is such a phony city. Maybe that’s why it has such a good relationship with Hollywood. In the sequel to a “film” we have seen many times before, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) may “shut down” Saturday because of a dispute between the Obama administration and the new Republican congressional majority over funding for the president’s immigration orders, which writes The Hill.com, would “provide deferred deportations and work visas to illegal immigrants.” In essence, the orders would grant them the equivalent of squatter’s rights. DHS doesn’t have to shut down. Most employees will show up for work, though they might have to go without pay for a while, at least until Congress gets its act together, as it has in previous politically motivated closings. But the appearance of closing the agency will allow Democrats and their media flatterers another opportunity to blame Republicans and gain shortterm political advantage. DHS Secretary Jeh Johnson employed a scare tactic to pressure Republicans into caving. Johnson appeared on “ABC News This Week,” warning that Minnesota’s Mall of America

might be a terrorist target. The White House defended Johnson’s comments on Cal Monday, but Thomas Press Secretary Josh Columnist Earnest assured Americans there was no “... specific, credible plot against the Mall of America or any other domestic, commercial shopping center.” Better get your Christmas shopping done early just in case. As usual, we are focusing on the wrong subject, or at least the wrong part of the right subject. Of greater concern should be the flood of immigrants from Muslim countries among whom terrorists are surely hiding. As reported by Investors.com, “France, Belgium and now even liberal Denmark regret letting in so many immigrants from Muslim countries. Their swelling Islamic communities have become breeding grounds for terrorists. So why is the U.S. opening the floodgates to foreign Muslims?” Good question. The time to be concerned about lung cancer is before one starts smoking, not after cancer is detected. The time to be concerned about
terrorists infiltrating America is before they arrive and attack shopping malls, not after their growing numbers threaten our national security As Investors reports, “Between 2010 and 2013, the Obama administration imported almost 300,000 new immigrants from Muslim nations – more immigrants than the U.S. let in from Central America and Mexico combined over that period.” Many of them are arriving from Iraq and now Syria where ISIS has established a caliphate and from which it has announced plans to conquer Rome, meaning Christianity. “The U.S. will admit as many as 2,000 Syrian nationals by the end of fiscal year 2015, up from 525 since fiscal 2011,” Investors adds. President Obama is living up to his 2008 campaign promise to “fundamentally transform the United States of America.” But transform it into what? The Brooklyn Daily Eagle reports that about half of New York City residents speak a language other than English at home and that one-fourth of city residents are not proficient in English, citing figures from the Mayor’s Office for Immigrant Affairs. There are likely similar profiles in other big cities.

While President Obama promised that his executive order allowing illegals to stay in this country would “stem the flow” of people crossing the border and “speed the return of those who do cross over,” the opposite has occurred. Internet emails obtained by National Review Online reveal that the administration has ordered Border Patrol agents to “curtail initiation of deportation proceedings and to screen the illegal border crossers they detail for eligibility under the president’s deferred-action programs instead.” No nation can maintain its character, strength and purpose if it does not control its borders and assimilate immigrants into the history, values and patriotism necessary for its stability and even survival. It’s long past time to stop this influx, to seal the border and to cease allowing immigrants from nations where terrorism thrives. New arrivals should be transformed into full Americans or invited to move on to a country they love more than this one.

Obama: Police need to make changes WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama said Monday the deaths of unarmed black men in Missouri and New York show that law enforcement needs to change practices to build trust in minority communities, as a White House task force called for independent investigations when police use deadly force. The president said last year’s deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and Eric Garner in New York City exposed “deep rooted frustration in many communities of color around the need for fair and just law enforcement.” He said a policing task force that he appointed found it’s important for law enforcement to improve training, data collection and cooperation with the communities they cover. “The moment is now for us to make these changes,” Obama said from the White House during a meeting with members of the task force, who worked for three months to develop the recommendations.
States’ electoral maps vex justices WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court, unwilling to limit partisan influence in redistricting in earlier cases, now seems poised to stop states that have tried to take matters into their own hands by removing map-drawing power from elected lawmakers. The justices heard arguments Monday in a challenge to Arizona’s independent redistricting commission’s drawing of U.S. House seats in a case that could also affect a dozen other states, including California. The big issue before the court is whether voters can take away the power given by the U.S. Constitution to elected state legislatures to decide how members of the U.S. House are elected. The court’s conservative justices indicated that they think the answer is no. And some liberal justices also seemed troubled by arguments put forth by lawyers for the Obama administration and the Arizona commission.
Dem-backed DHS bill vote possible WASHINGTON — Speaker John Boehner left open the possibility Monday of passage of long-term funding for the Department of Homeland Security without immigration provisions attached, as his alternatives dwindled for avoiding a capitulation to the White House and Democrats. Boehner declined to say over the weekend
if he would permit a vote on the Senatepassed measure, and his spokesman similarly sidestepped the question on Monday. Officials in both parties predict it would pass, and end the recurring threat of a partial agency shutdown. Democrats said they believe the speaker eventually would relent and permit a vote on the bill, which conservatives oppose and President Barack Obama is eager to sign. “I would hope and expect that we will have a vote” this week, said Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the second-ranking House Democrat.
Taxpayers billed for plane ride to game WASHINGTON — Illinois Rep. Aaron Schock billed taxpayers at least three times for more than $14,000 in private air travel last fall, including for a trip to a Chicago Bears football game, The Associated Press has learned. The newly revealed expenses encompass plane travel around Illinois and to Washington. They add to the list of more than a dozen flights worth $40,000 aboard planes owned by donors, which led to a formal ethics complaint. Schock, a 33-year-old rising Republican star, has been under scrutiny for using congressional funds to redecorate his Capitol Hill office in the style of the TV show “Downton Abbey.” Last week, his office said he made good on his promise of personally reimbursing those costs. Congressional rules updated two years ago generally allow the use of private aircraft as long as trips are fairly compensated. But the latest revelations about Schock’s travel expenses raise questions about why taxpayers would be billed for a trip to Chicago when he represents the Peoria and Springfield areas at least 150 miles away.
Gay marriage ban blocked by judge OMAHA, Neb. — Nebraska’s same-sex marriage ban was thrown into question Monday alongside those in three other nearby states that are set for a hearing together before a federal appeals court. U.S. District Court Judge Joseph Bataillon struck down Nebraska’s constitutional amendment, triggering a quick appeal by the state attorney general’s office. The appeal could place the case before the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, which will hear similar cases out of Arkansas, Missouri and South Dakota. The American Civil Liberties Union of Nebraska sued the state in November on behalf of seven same-sex couples challenging the ban, which had passed
with the approval of 70 percent of voters in 2000. In addition to prohibiting gay marriage, the ban also forbids civil unions and legalized domestic partnerships. Same-sex couples miss out on medical and financial benefits that are available to heterosexual married couples, Bataillon said as he issued the injunction, which takes effect March 9.
Nurse who survived Ebola sues hospital DALLAS — The Dallas hospital that treated the first patient to be diagnosed in the U.S. with Ebola lied to Congress when it said its staff was trained to handle the deadly virus, a nurse who contracted the disease contends in a lawsuit filed Monday. Nina Pham, who was an intensive care unit nurse at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas, says after being told last fall that she would be treating a patient suspected of having Ebola, “the sum total” of information she was given to protect herself was “what her manager ‘Googled’ and printed out from the Internet.” She says in her lawsuit that the day after getting that information, the patient, Thomas Eric Duncan, tested positive for the disease. Duncan, who contracted Ebola in his native Liberia but started showing symptoms during a trip to the U.S., later died at the hospital. Pham, 26, and another nurse who treated Duncan, Amber Vinson, contracted the disease but recovered.
Mom found guilty of poisoning son WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. — A woman who blogged for years about her son’s constant health woes was convicted Monday of poisoning him to death by forcefeeding heavy concentrations of sodium through his stomach tube. A jury in the New York suburbs found Lacey Spears, of Scottsville, Kentucky, guilty of second-degree murder in the death last year of 5-year-old Garnett-Paul Spears. The defense portrayed Spears as a caring mother and her son as sickly, but the prosecution argued that Spears reveled in the attention Garnett’s illness brought her. Video showed Spears twice taking the boy into a hospital bathroom with a connector tube and the boy suffering afterward. “The motive is bizarre, the motive is scary, but it exists,” Assistant District Attorney Patricia Murphy said in closing arguments Thursday. “She apparently craved the attention of her family, her friends, her co-workers and most particularly the medical profes-

Court of Appeals to visit university JACKSON — The Mississippi Court of Appeals will hear oral arguments on the campus of Mississippi Valley State University this month. The court will be on the Itta Bena campus on March 31. The court periodically hears cases on college campuses as a teaching tool for students and the public. At Mississippi Valley, a three-judge panel will hear an appeal from Charles Kuebler, who was sentenced to life in prison in Hinds County in 2011 for the death of his girlfriend. Prosecutors say 28-year-old Tamara Stuckey was fatally shot on June 30, 2010, at Kuebler’s apartment in Jackson. The arguments will be heard at the auditorium of the W.A. Butts Social Science Building. The case is among dozens the Appeals Court will consider during its March-April term. Decisions are expected later.
Board OKs sheriff’s line-of-duty proposal TUPELO — Lee County supervisors have approved a proposal from Sheriff Jim Johnson to provide additional benefits for officers injured in the line of duty. Johnson’s line-of-duty leave benefit policy allows the county to pay state-certified deputies and jail officers their regular salary if they are injured in the line of duty. The city of Tupelo has a similar policy. The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports the county will pay the difference between the injured officer’s regular compensation and any worker’s compensation or disability benefits under the policy. State law allows counties and municipalities to create the line-of-duty benefits for up to a year. The Lee County policy allows the sheriff and the board to extend the line-of-duty leave benefits beyond a year, if warranted by medical review.
Schools mull outside cafeteria services OXFORD, Miss. — The Oxford School Board is looking into private cafeteria services. The Oxford Eagle reports the board wants to hear what private companies can provide. Superintendent Brian Harvey says the decision to ask for proposals doesn’t mean a decision has been made to outsource food management. Harvey says he visited a La Grange, Georgia, school district and saw a wider variety of offerings, more brand name items and a higher percentage of student participation. Harvey says school board will look into the services’ ability to work

Conference brings renowned speakers CLEVELAND — Officials with two of the country’s largest charitable foundations will be speakers at Delta State University’s annual race relations conference. The conference will be held March 30-31 on the Delta State campus in Cleveland. This year’s conference is titled “Winning the Race: Through Hearts & Minds. A Conversation on Building Connected Communities.” La June Montgomery Tabron, president and CEO of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation in Battle Creek, Michigan, will discuss how the increased use of “big data” can help create interventions that are tailored to the health, education and workforce training needs that face young people of color. Sidney Hacker, a senior policy officer at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation in Seattle, will discuss “Barbara Jordan, Bill Gates and the Importance of Common Ground.”
Barbour to lead new development firm RIDGELAND — Former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour is among the leaders of a new economic development firm formed by Ridgelandbased Butler Snow LLP. The law firm said Monday that Barbour will serve as chairman of VisionFirst Advisors, which will provide strategic analysis and identify market opportunities for organizations. He will be joined by former Florida Secretary of Commerce Gray Swoope, who will serve as president and chief executive officer. As a subsidiary of Butler Snow, with client representation throughout the United States as well as internationally in more than 30 countries around the globe, firm officials said the partnership gives VisionFirst Advisors national and international reach.
VisionFirst Advisors’ new office is located in Tallahassee, Florida.
CL&W will complete meter project itself COLUMBUS — A roughly $3.5 million project to upgrade water meters in Columbus is still incomplete. The Commercial Dispatch reports Columbus Light and Water director Todd Gale says his employees still need to replace about 250 old meters to complete the project. Gale did not offer a timeframe for accomplishing that. Gale had intended for the project’s contractor, Utility Meter Services Inc., to finish installing all the new meters by the end of January, but he said his own crews took over at the beginning of the year to save money. “It’s harder to access those meters,” Gale said of those that still need replacing. “They are mostly in concrete and they just need more time and attention. The contractor would have charged us extra hourly rates, so we felt like we’d just do it with our own inhouse employees.” Originally, the project called for UMS to replace 11,126 meters with more accurate, more efficient units, but Gale said the project had grown to about 11,600. Much of that unanticipated increase came from vacant meters not included in the initial project plans. Some vacant meters, which Gale said were connected to inactive irrigation lines or long vacant homes, might be removed from the system altogether. Gale said UMS began installing the new meters last summer and ceased installation work at the end of December. Since then, he said CL&W crews had installed almost 300 new meters, and the utility has ordered the final 250. “We’ve got two crews working five days a week to get this project done,” Gale said. “As soon as we get these meters in, we’ll get them installed as quick as we can.” While the old meters required manual readings, Gale said the new meters would allow “drive-by radio reads,” meaning a reader could drive by the meter and use a remote device to collect its information.

Rubio nearing decision about presidential run BY THOMAS BEAUMONT & PHILIP ELLIOTT Associated Press
PALM BEACH, Fla. — Marco Rubio isn’t quite ready to say he’s running for president, yet admits it sure does look like he will seek the White House in 2016. “I think that’s reflected in both our travel and some of the staffing decisions that we’ve made,” the Florida senator told The Associated Press. “We — if in fact I make that final decision on a run — want those elements to be in place.” The message that his decision is still pending is one Rubio delivered again this past week on stage, both at the Conservative Public Action Conference outside Washington and at the conservative Club For Growth in Palm Beach. But allies of the first-term senator and former speaker of the Florida House who have
spoken with him about his plans fully expect that he will run for president, rather than a second Senate term. “I assume he’s running,” said Wayne Berman, a veteran Republican fundraiser who was chairman of Sen. John McCain’s presidential fundraising in 2008. “He will help the party turn the page, politically, to the next generation.” Nearly a dozen people close to Rubio, including GOP officials, fundraisers and his advisers, say Rubio has told them he is in the final stages of planning the launch of his presidential run and will formally join the crowded field of Republican hopefuls as early as April. All spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss their private conversations with Rubio. Berman said he is working to line up — and keep — donors to finance that national campaign.
Among the donors who have signed on: Dallas investor George Seay and Goldman Sachs’ Joe Wall. Rubio’s goal is to raise $50 million before next year’s Iowa caucuses, according to four donors who have spoken to Rubio about the likely campaign’s budget. “Marco’s best asset is Marco,” said former congressional aide Scott Weaver, who organized a recent dinner for potential donors and is serving as a co-chairman of Rubio’s advisory committee. “If you can get Marco in front of people, he sells himself. It’s been an easier sales process than we thought at this point.” Rubio’s team is also aggressively courting Spencer Zwick, Mitt Romney’s top fundraiser in the 2012 presidential race. Zwick is sought after by several prospective Republican candidates and has also spoken favorably about Rubio’s chief rival, former
Florida Gov. Jeb Bush. That competition is vicious. One high-profile Rubio finance lieutenant, former Rep. Bill Paxon, had helped raise tens of thousands for Rubio. But on Monday, Paxon announced he was switching his allegiances to Bush. “Gov. Bush has the principles, temperament and judgment, along with the proven executive track record, to successfully run for and then serve as our country’s next president,” Paxon said in a statement. Bush was a mentor to Rubio during their time in Florida. The two are likely to compete for many of the same donors, both in Florida and nationwide, and Rubio acknowledges it would be “a bit unusual” to run against Bush. “I think he’s proving he’s going to be a very formidable candidate,” Rubio said. “I just believe if you think the best place to serve your country is to run for and hopefully win
the presidency, you move forward on that irrespective of who else is in the race. If I ran, it wouldn’t be against him.” No major candidates for president have declared their intentions; even Bush says his decision on that is ahead. Formally entering the race triggers a host of legal and campaign finance complications. But a decision to commit is different for Rubio, whose Senate term runs through 2016. He has said repeatedly he will not run for Senate re-election and the presidential nomination at the same time. That’s a different approach than likely presidential rival Rand Paul. The Kentucky senator is trying to set up a two-step system in his state that would allow him to seek the presidential nomination through a caucus and a Senate bid through a primary. Kentucky law prohibits one person from
seeking two positions in the same nominating process. Rubio’s advisers have told party leaders that they should expect to recruit a candidate to run for his Senate seat in 2016, according to four people involved in the talks, who discussed the private conversation on the condition of anonymity because Rubio has not notified the National Republican Senatorial Committee of his plans. At the same time, Rubio’s team is preparing for a national campaign. His top political adviser and likely campaign manager, Terry Sullivan, has been recruiting operatives — including Jim Merrill, who ran Romney’s New Hampshire campaigns and was at Rubio’s side for a twoday visit to the state last week. Spokesman Alex Conant is leaving Rubio’s Senate office this week to begin work at his political action committee.
What are you Looking For? There are two contrasting birds that fly over the fields. One is a hummingbird and the other is the vulture. All the vulture is looking for is dead animals - rotting meat, because that is all he looks for. But, hummingbird ignores the dead carcasses and smelly dead flesh. Instead, he looks for the tiny blossoms of the flowers. Each bird finds what it is looking for. Now, my friends, what are you looking for in life? What identifies your image of good or evil? What are you finding? If folks are just looking for that which will gratify the things of the flesh, the culture, life style, then they will find it in the activities that will not, decay, and pass away. “Love not the world or the things of the world...they are not of the Father--they will pass away-- he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever”- I John 2:15-17. If you are looking for the eternal purpose for life, then you will find these in Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. You will turn from the sinful activities and will be searching out the beauty of God’s Wordthe Bible. Here we find the better things for life. Read Romans 6: 1-6. What are we seeking in a church? Some seeking a church of their own liking or fits their own life style. Some seeking a church that will satisfy their desires to be entertained, to be popular, and attractive to the world. Like the vulture, we are looking for that which is decaying. We want to be like the hummingbird. Jesus did not die on the cross to satisfy our earthly misconceptions concerning his church. The church that Jesus built is built upon the foundation of the teaching of the apostles and prophets of the new testament- Eph. 3:20. Jesus said, I will build MY Church - Matt. 16: 13-19. Are we looking for that church ONLY ONE? If we are looking outside of the Bible, we will find something other than what Christ came to give his life to purchase and establish- Gal. 1:6-9; Acts 20:28. Please read. When we seek the Lord’s church, we will find it through hearing the gospel- Rom. 10:17; Acts 2:14-46. To become a member - remember the hummingbird: some change is required - called repentance - Luke 13:3. We must confess the sweet name of Jesus - Matt. 10:32-33. - being baptized in the name of Christ for the remission of sins- Acts 2:38; 22:16. Those who seek the church of Christ find it. We must continue to seek His church and salvation through the New Testament - Acts 2 42. It can be found.

Spacecraft making 1st visit to dwarf planet BY ALICIA CHANG AP Science Writer
PASADENA, Calif. — A NASA spacecraft is about to reach the end of a nearly eight-year journey and make the first rendezvous with a dwarf planet. The Dawn craft will slip into orbit Friday around Ceres, a dwarf planet the size of Texas. Unlike robotic landings or other orbit captures, the arrival won’t be a nail-biter. Still, Dawn had to travel some 3 billion miles to reach the largest object in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. “It’s been a roller coaster ride. It’s been extremely thrilling,” project manager Robert Mase of the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory said Monday. Ceres is the first of two dwarf planets to receive
visitors this year. NASA’s New Horizons spacecraft is barreling toward onetime planet Pluto where it will arrive in July. Launched in 2007, Dawn made the first stop of its journey at the asteroid Vesta. It beamed back more than 30,000 images of the rocky world inside the asteroid belt before heading to its final destination. Dawn began its approach to Ceres in December, and last month it snapped pictures of the dwarf planet that revealed two mysterious bright spots inside a crater. Scientists will have to wait until the craft spirals closer to the surface in the coming months to get sharper images. It will get as close as 235 miles

above Ceres’ surface, or roughly the distance of the International Space Station above Earth. Last year, European researchers not connected with the mission detected water plumes spewing from two regions on Ceres. The source of the plumes remains unclear. Deputy project scientist Carol Raymond said the shiny patches — possibly exposed ice or salt — were a surprise and could be related to the plumes. Dawn carries an instrument that should be able to detect the plumes if the surface is still active. “The team is really, really excited about this feature because it is unique in the solar system,” Raymond said of the spots. “We will be revealing
its true nature as we get closer and closer to the surface. So the mystery will be solved, but it is one that’s really got us on the edge of our seats.” The $473 million Dawn mission is the first to target two different celestial objects to better understand how the solar system evolved. It’s powered by ion propulsion engines, which provide gentle yet constant acceleration, making it more efficient than conventional rocket fuel. With its massive solar wings unfurled, it measures about 65 feet, the size of a tractor-trailer. Vesta and Ceres reside in a zone between Mars and Jupiter that’s littered with space rocks that never grew to be full-fledged planets.

Grammatically correct way isn’t always the best BY JIMMY REED Columnist
My boyhood best friend and mentor, the old black man everyone called Jaybird, who never wasted one day in a classroom, proved what Will Rogers once said: “Nobody is stupider than educated folks when you get them off the thing they’re educated in.� Years ago, after having earned a few college degrees, I fancied myself a well-educated man, thoroughly grounded in grammar. A small college down on the Gulf Coast thought so, too, and its president offered me an English teaching job that
paid a whopping annual salary of $6,600. Shoot! I couldn’t turn him down. After I had taught a few years, my father called one day and said that he had lost the man who had managed his Mississippi Delta cotton farm, and being as I had spent all my summers working for him, he asked me to take the job. “I would, Dad, but I’m making a ton of money down here, and I don’t think you can match my salary.� “How much are they paying you?� He asked. When I told him, I heard a suppressed snicker.“I’ll pay you twice
that much.� “Yas-suh, Boss! I’ll submit my resignation today.� When I returned to the farm, I visited Jaybird after church one Sunday. As we’d done so many times during my growing-up years, he and I sat on his porch and chatted. The old man loved flowers, and his thumb for growing them was as green as it was for growing vegetables. “Ain’t dem roses beautiful?� he asked, pointing to several rosebushes. They were gorgeous, and I told him so. In a little while, when a neighbor’s kid was about to pick one
of the roses, Jaybird said, “Boy, come on ’way fum dem bushes.� Despite the grammatical incorrectness of his command, it worked, but in a few minutes, the boy was pestering the bushes again. “Boy, you betta come on ’way fum ’roun dem bushes!� Again the convoluted command worked, and I was intrigued that, even though the grammar had deteriorated even more, the command’s meaning was even clearer and more effective than something I would have said, such as, “Boy, leave the bushes alone.�
A little while later, the hardheaded nuisance of a boy sneaked up behind one of the bushes and reached for a flower. This time my friend could take no more. Rising from his rocking chair, grabbing his willow switch and pointing it at the brat, he roared, “Boy, you betta come on ’way fum up in ’roun behine dem bushes, or I’ll tear yo’ butt up wit dis switch.� One look at the old man’s angry, scowling face and the instrument of torture in his hand, and the boy fled for good. What my mentor said made better sense and
was more effective than anything his mentee could have ever come up with. Will Rogers was right. I’m too educated and therefore too stupid to put together such an effective set of words: On ’way fum up in ’roun behine.

Debate rages over color of dress photographed in rare light BY SHAWN POGATCHNIK Associated Press
It’s the dress that’s beating the Internet black and blue. Or should that be gold and white? Friends and co-workers worldwide are debating the true hues of a royal blue dress with black lace that, to many an eye, transforms in one photograph into gold and white. Experts are calling the photo a one-in-amillion shot that perfectly captures how people’s brains perceive color and process contrast in dramatically different ways. “This photo provides the best test I’ve ever seen for how the process of color correction works in the brain,’� said Daniel Hardiman-McCartney, the clinical adviser to Britain’s College of Optometrists. “I’ve never seen a photo like before where so many people look at the same photo and see two sets of
such dramatically different colors.� The photo, taken earlier this month before a wedding on the remote Scottish island of Colonsay, also illustrates the dynamics of a perfect socialmedia storm. Guests at the wedding could not understand why, in one photo of the dress being worn by the mother of the bride, the clearly blue and blackstriped garment transformed into gold and white. But only in that single photo, and only for around half of the viewers. The debate spread from the wedding to the Internet, initially from friend to perplexed friend on Facebook. One such wedding guest, musician and singer Caitlin McNeill, posted the photo Thursday night to her Tumblr account with the question: “Guys please help me. Is this dress white and gold, or
blue and black? Me and my friends can’t agree and we are freaking the (expletive) out.� She’s consistently seen gold. One of her friends, Alana MacInnes, saw gold and white for the first hour, then black and blue. Buzzfeed sensed clickbait heaven and, amid its own newsroom argument, was among the first to call McNeill. It posted more than a half-dozen stories on the image and the tsunami of reaction. On Twitter, #TheDress and variants surged to the top of trending lists globally within hours. The entertainment elite then chimed in. Taylor Swift saw the dress was “obviously� blue and black. “What’s the matter with u guys, it’s white and gold,� countered Julianne Moore. Kim Kardashian, never one to miss a trending topic, reported she was seeing gold but to husband Kanye West, it was
solidly black and blue. “Who is color blind?� Kardashian asked the twitterati. The answer, says Hardiman-McCartney, is that every viewer seeing either set of colors is right. He says the exceptional bar-code style of the dress, combined with the strongly yellow-toned backlighting in the one photo, provides the brain a rare chance to “choose� which of the dress’ two primary colors should be seen in detail. Those who subconsciously seek detail in the many horizontal black lines convert them to a golden hue, so the blue disappears into a blownout white, he said. Others whose brains focus on the blue part of the dress see the photo as the black-and-blue reality. “There’s no correct way to perceive this photograph. It sits right on the cusp, or balance, of how we perceive the color of
a subject versus the surrounding area,� he said. “And this color consistency illusion that we’re experiencing doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with your eyes. It just shows how your brain chooses to see the image, to process this luminescence confusion.� The photo produced a deluge of media calls Friday to the Tumblr reporter, 21-year-old McNeill, who calls the seemingly endless phone calls “more than I’ve received in the entirety of the rest of my life combined.� She says the photographer, who is also the mother of the bride, never wanted the publicity. There’s one clear winner: English dress retailer Roman Originals, which has reported a million hits on its sales site in the first 18 hours following the photo’s worldwide distribution. “I can officially say that this dress is royal
blue with black lace trimming,� said Michele Bastock, design director at Roman Originals. She said staff members had no idea that the dress, when shot in that singularly peculiar light, might be perceived in a totally different color scheme. Not until Friday anyway, when they arrived at work to field hundreds of emails, calls and social media posts. They, too, split almost 50-50 on the photo’s true colors. All agreed, however, the dress for the Birmingham, England-based retailer was likely to become their greatest-ever seller. The chain’s website Friday headlined its product as “#TheDress now back in stock — debate now.� “Straightaway we went to the computers and had a look. And some members of the team saw ivory and gold. I see a royal blue all the time,� she said. “It’s an enigma ... but we are grateful.�
Oxford history buffs to create website devoted to town’s past Associated Press
OXFORD — Oxford attorney Richie Burnette and members of the Oxford-Lafayette County Heritage Foundation plan to embark on a historical project that they will never finish. The Oxford Eagle reports the group of Oxford history buffs plans to create a website dedicated to the history of Oxford and Lafayette County. It will include map overlays that users can access to see what the city and county looked like hundreds of years ago that contrast with modern day Oxford
and Lafayette County. The public is invited to the foundation’s annual meeting at 5:30 p.m. March 9 at the Burns-Belfry Museum & Multicultural Center for a demonstration of the project. “We will have a demonstration at our meeting that will show how you can take various maps and pictures and overlay them,� Burnette said. Using historic maps, foundation members will demonstrate how map overlays have changed the town Square. “A user at home could select whatever things are
of interest to them,� Burnette said. ]These include maps, written histories and photographs. The local foundation has been learning from leaders of the Granite Falls Historical Museum in Washington. The Granite Falls museum has added accessible, historic maps to its website at www.gfhistory.org. The Washington museum has also scanned historic area newspapers and made them accessible online. “Just to use as an example, a Faulkner scholar from Britain who wanted
to dig down into a particular subject that Faulkner was writing - if he was interested in a subject in 1910, they could go back and read the paper from that time,� Burnette said. He said they also hope to add photos, school and church histories, and other historic things to the Oxford-Lafayette site. “It’s got potential for anyone who wants to be involved,� he said. Burnette said foundation members recently discovered a series of Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps of Oxford dating from 1885 to 1940 after a
meeting with city officials. Prior to that meeting, they had only seen two. Now they have at least a dozen for the website. A university professor also informed them about a Civil War map created in 1862 that none of the local historians had seen before. “The more people who find out about it, they may say, ‘My great-grandmother left something that might be of interest,’� said Burnette, who believes the website could impact tourism and even save the city and county money. “Historians, genealogy
people, Faulkner scholars, Civil War buffs or civil rights historians might be searching the Internet and think that Oxford looks like a good place to go. “I don’t think this project will ever mature,� he said. “I think it will continue to grow, the more people find out about it.� Burnette said the website also helped the city of Granite Falls save $200,000 for money they would have spent on research that was readily available when leaders created a 10-year plan for the city.

Dear Annie: I am a 51-year-old man and have been unemployed for the past three years. Last year, my wife asked for a divorce. My question is: What can I do to revitalize my relationship with my three teenage children? I have to initiate all phone calls and texts. They never ask how I am. The youngest is forthcoming about events in his life, but my daughters require extensive questioning, and all I get are brief answers. I understand that they are angry with me, but I am trying my best to get a new job and move on with my life. Every time I see them, I tell them that I miss them, but only my son says he misses me, too. It is so frustrating that I don’t want to do this much longer. I have started applying for jobs out of state so I won’t have to deal with the disappointment. I feel that they are trying to keep me out of their lives. If so, I should just stop trying so hard. I don’t like spending my days thinking about them and feeling hurt. What do you suggest? -- Feeling Unloved Dear Unloved: Please do not cut your children out of your life because they are angry and confused and taking it out on you. No matter how upsetting their be-
Annie’s Mailbox havior, they still need you. They also need to know that you will not give up on them. Talk to your ex-wife. Explain how this hurts the children, and ask for her help in maintaining a better relationship -- for their sakes. Your contact at this moment in time will reflect on their feelings for you in the future, when they are more mature and able to gain perspective. We know it’s hard. Please don’t make it permanent. Dear Annie: My sister and her husband have disowned us because we did not go to a memorial service for her husband’s brother, who passed away after a long battle with cancer. My wife and I saw this brother once every few years at family occasions. We were never at his home. The day of the service, my sister called and asked whether I was coming. I said no, that I had other things going on, and she hung up. We are in our late 60s, and I think it’s a shame for them to end a relationship
over this. Were we wrong? -- Weighing on My Mind in Pennsylvania Dear Weighing: The point of attending a funeral is to pay respects to the family. Your sister and her husband were “the family.” While you are not obligated to go to the funeral of someone you barely know, it would have been a kindness to go for your sister’s sake, or at least give her the impression that you wanted to be there but had other serious obligations. We do think your sister overreacted in the moment, but we also know you’d like to fix this. So apologize to her. Tell her you are so sorry you didn’t go to the funeral, that you should have been there for her and her husband, and that you deeply regret it and hope she can forgive you. It’s not too much to do for a sibling relationship that you value. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Wedding invitations don’t need to include everyone at work D E A R ABBY: I teach at a fairly small school. My gradelevel teaching team Abigail consists of ve teachers Van Buren fiwho work closely toDear Abby gether. During the last school year, one of my team members got engaged. This year, we’ve had a change of staff and now have a new member on our team. My colleague has not, and does not, plan to invite this new member to her wedding, although the rest of us are invited. The save-the-dates and shower invitations have all been hand-delivered at school, making it awkward for the person who has not been invited. I feel it wasn’t appropriate to include all but one of the team simply because she is new to the group. Am I correct in feeling that my colleague did not handle this appropriately? -- FRUSTRATED IN THE FIRST GRADE DEAR FRUSTRATED: A wedding is not a children’s birthday party to which all the children must be invited if the invitations are handed out at school. While it would have been
more diplomatic if the bride had mailed or emailed the invitations to her teammates, she was in no way obligated to invite someone with whom she hadn’t worked. DEAR ABBY: How do you handle providing truthful advice to someone with sensitive feelings? My sister “Ella” is actively dating and doesn’t seem to handle the rejection well. This leads her to ask a number of questions she wants me to be truthful about, yet when I answer honestly, she gets mad and sometimes starts to cry. Now when Ella asks my opinion, I either tell her half-truths or avoid the situation altogether. I’m not mean when I say what I think, but I think she only wants to hear what she wants. How do I answer her questions without hurting her feelings yet be truthful? -- TONGUE-TIED IN OHIO DEAR TONGUE-TIED: You don’t. Instead, you suggest that Ella seek information from someone “more qualified” -- a psychologist. Because she has had one failed relationship after another, it would benefit her to talk to a therapist so she won’t keep repeating the same mistakes she’s making. Your sister may be attracted to the wrong kind of men, or so needy she chases men away.
She may be more receptive to hearing what she needs to from a therapist than from you. DEAR ABBY: I have a man living with me as a boarder, paying weekly rent. He’s a friend as well, but not a close one. I’m at a loss as to how to tell him he can’t use my bath towels, washcloth, bar soap, toothpaste or hairbrush. I’m tempted to tape a list on the bathroom mirror saying, “Please do not use the following,” then list the items I feel are too personal to share. I can’t imagine how someone would think it’s OK to use someone else’s personal things. -GROSSED-OUT GUY IN THE SOUTH DEAR GROSSED OUT: The thing about silence is that it implies consent. Obviously, your boarder knows or cares nothing about boundaries. If you don’t have the courage to tell him face-to-face that certain things are off-limits and what they are, then by all means tape a large sign to the bathroom mirror. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). You don’t have to understand things to get used to them. This truth will show up in your relationships. Your loved one has qualities that baffle you, and eventually those will be the same qualities that endear her to you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You appreciate the privileges of your years, of which there are many. Don’t spoil this by wishing for a “do-over.” The past is gone. Jonathan Swift said, “No wise man ever wished to be younger.” GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When you don’t like where the fates are leading you, dig in your heels. Sometimes the fates should be wrestled to the ground -- exhausting work, but it makes you stronger, too. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Put yourself out there with a story about who you are, where you come from and what you want. You’ll speak to people’s emotions. At the end of your story, the applause will come in the
form of an opportunity. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re not imagining things: Someone is checking you out or putting you to the test. There are good reasons for this. Relax, smile and do your thing. You’ll tip the scale in your favor just by being happy. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re transitioning into a new phase, and there will be some discomfort to go along with it, but nothing you can’t handle. You can’t be born without going through birth! LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). More than the money, the kinship of others is what makes your work joyful. You’ll demonstrate your appreciation for your colleagues so that there is no question as to how you feel. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your need to communicate is strong, and you’ll do it so well. Even that horrible listener you know will pay attention as you engage him or her in the juicy details of your journey.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You believe in the power of love, and you put action behind that belief. It’s what will allow you to let go of a problem relationship and adopt an inspired relationship, all with the same person. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When it comes to love, you hold out for an equal. You want to be wanted, not needed. There are exceptions to the rule, but for today, hold fast to your preferences and expectations. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Before you break out your wallet, ask your friends for help. You can borrow what you need so you don’t have to rent or buy it. Also, you may be able to swap instead of shop. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). No one cares like you do. Someone wants that special kind of attention you give and is too proud to ask for it directly. Address the situation with your renowned sensitivity, and you’ll be rewarded in kind.

Antarctica Word Search
Circle the words hidden in the puzzle below.
Kids News Antarctica is the fifth largest Continent on Earth. It is almost completely covered by a sheet of ice. Only during Summer months does a small portion of the ice defrost on the outer edges. The ice sheet was created from millions of years of snow layers continuously being packed one on top of the other. Seventy percent of the Earth’s fresh water is frozen in the glaciers that make up the ice on top of Antarctica. Large cracks can form on the surface ice creating a crevasse. When parts of the glacier crack and fall off, they create icebergs. Due to its harsh climate, no one lives there permanently. Antarctica does not have conventional days and nights which most parts of the world are accustomed to. It remains daylight in Antarctica from about September 21 until around March 22. This is considered to be Antarctica’s Summer period. The remaining six months are dark and are considered to be the Winter. The lands of Antarctica were untouched by man until the 1820’s. Much of the Continent remains unexplored. Modern technologies, such as satellites and airplanes, have helped us learn a great deal about it. No animals live in Antarctica. Penguins and seals can be found on the coastlines, but they are still considered to be sea-dwelling species. A few microorganisms, such as bacteria, yeasts, and algae, have been identified along with a small number of insects. The South Pole is located in Antarctica. The Continent is also home to several mountain ranges, such as the Prince Charles Mountains, the Transantarctic Mountains, and the Ellsworth Mountains. Some mountains are almost completely covered with ice with only the tip showing. These are called nunataks.

Antarctic Iceberg Punch
Follow the directions to create iceberg punch. Before drinking, use it to demonstrate to others how the majority of an iceberg is underwater. You will need: two 2-liter bottles of cold lemon-lime soda, blue food coloring, shaved ice, large punch bowl. Step One: First you will make the “icebergs” to go in the punch. Take the shaved ice and make it into a tight shape. You can make balls or more jagged shapes like icebergs appear. You will need about 10. Put them in a separate bowl and allow them to melt slightly for approximately 5-10 minutes. Step Two: Place ice “balls” in freezer for 30 minutes. Step Three: When ice is ready, pour the two bottles of soda into the punch bowl. Place 3-6 drops of blue food coloring into bowl. Stir. This is your ocean. Step Four: Place icebergs into the bowl. Observe and show others how most of the ice is actually below the punch. Serve before icebergs melt.

Lady Aggies fall short of state bid BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Kossuth almost pulled off the ultimate comeback. Instead the Lady Aggies will have to settle for a 21-win season that ended one victory shy of a coveted bid in the State Tournament. Kossuth nearly rallied from a 15-point second half deficit, falling 71-68 to Ruleville Central in the second round of the Class 3A Girls’ Playoffs. Trailing 66-51 with 5:04 remaining, Kossuth scored 16 points the final 3:45. Parrish Tice, who scored KHS’ last eight points en route to a game-high 33 digits, missed the first of three free throws with no time remaining after being fouled on a desperation 3-point attempt. Ruleville Central missed
five of its eight free-throw attempts in the final 55 seconds to leave the door open for Kossuth. The Lady Aggies finished the season 21-12. Kossuth, the No. 3 seed from Division 1-3A, knocked off 4-3A runner-up Kemper County in the first round and nearly upset the Division 3 champions to reach the newly-formatted, eight-team State Tournament. The Lady Tigers (23-3) will play Jefferson County on Thursday in quarterfinal play at Mississippi Coliseum. Down 12 at 57-45 heading into the final quarter, Tice sandwiched buckets around a Cheyenne Daniel bucket in transition to pull Kossuth to within 51-47 with 6:20 remaining. The Lady Tigers
came out of the timeout and reeled off nine quick points -- including two and-ones -to match their biggest lead at 66-51 with 5:04 remaining. Kossuth would hold Ruleville off the scoreboard for nearly three minutes, scoring nine unanswered of its own. Three-point buckets by Jade Barnes and Morgan Hodum capped the spurt that pulled KHS to within six with 2:17 left. Ruleville would get its lone bucket the final five minutes, but miss on the freethrow attempt. Tice sandwiched conventional buckets around four straight makes from the line, and Ruleville left the door open by making just 3-of-8 from the charity stripe the final 55 seconds. The last make left Kossuth
in a 71-68 hole with four seconds left. Tice got off a desperation attempt before the horn, but kept the game alive by drawing a foul. Tice missed on the first of three, ending the contest. Kossuth came out on fire and led 25-18 after one period with Tice netting 12 and Darbie Coleman connecting twice from beyond the arc. Ruleville took the lead for good at 30-28 midway through the second and outscored KHS 20-9 in the quarter to lead 38-34 at the break. The Lady Tigers took their first 15-point lead with under one minute left in the third. Kossuth cut the deficit to 57-45 after three on three straight points by Barnes. Cheyenne Daniel followed Tice with 15 points.

Mississippi’s basketball team has picked a bad time to struggle. Just one week ago, the Rebels appeared well on their way to making the NCAA tournament for a second time in three seasons. But consecutive losses — at home to Georgia and on the road against LSU — have made their case for an at-large bid a little less convincing.
Now the final two games of the regular season loom large. The Rebels (19-10, 10-6 Southeastern Conference) travel to face Alabama (17-12, 7-9) on Tuesday before hosting Vanderbilt on Saturday. Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said there’s no time for the Rebels to feel sorry for themselves. “We had a rough week. Played two really good teams,” Kennedy said Monday. “We played hard enough
to win, but just didn’t play well enough to win. In this league, as competitive as it is from top to bottom, you have to play well to win games.” For the Rebels, that simply means making more shots. Ole Miss is shooting just 38.5 percent from the field and 30.8 percent from 3-point range over its past five games. Stefan Moody — the team’s leading scorer at more than 18 points per game during SEC play — made just
3 of 16 attempts from the field in the loss to LSU. But Moody wasn’t the only problem. “Of course it’s frustrating,” Moody told reporters following Saturday’s loss to LSU. “At the end of the day, it’s all of us, it’s the whole team. We’ve just got to play better.” Kennedy, who was known as a 3-point marksman during his playing days at North Please see ROUGH | 13
Slive leery of making freshmen ineligible BY RALPH D. RUSSO AP College Sports Writer
Southeastern Conference Commissioner Mike Slive says it would be best to wait until after the NCAA’s new initial eligibility standards take effect in 2016 before considering whether to keep freshmen off the field. Slive said in a statement
to The Associated Press on Monday that if the goal is to improve graduation rates and grade-point averages, “we have to remember that each college student has his or her own academic challenges.” “To put a blanket over these student-athletes with a year on the bench doesn’t address those individual needs to in-
centivize academic progress. Many students do come to college prepared both academically and athletically ready to compete in the classroom and in competition, and to penalize those students with a universal policy may create unintended consequences not beneficial to many studentathletes,” he said.
Big Ten Commissioner Jim Delany has said he wants his conference to consider making freshmen ineligible in football and men’s basketball, and Pac-12 Commissioner Larry Scott and Bob Bowlsby have both expressed support for at least examining the Please see SLIVE | 13
Countdown on for MLB’s pace of game play The Associated Press
GOODYEAR, Ariz. — During his playing career, Mike Hargrove’s unique routine at the plate went something like this: step into the batter’s box, adjust gloves, brush lip, tap cleats with bat to remove dirt, check helmet, tug at jersey sleeve, hitch up pants, check right thumb protector. Repeat. Every pitch. It earned him a classic nick-
name, “The Human Rain Delay.” These days, Hargrove’s ritual — he claims it only lasted 19 seconds — would not only be frowned upon, but possibly get him fined under Major League Baseball’s new pace of play initiatives designed to speed up a game many purists believe doesn’t need more tinkering. “Grover would be playing for free,” joked Indians skip-
per Terry Francona. On Tuesday, the new pace of play rules will be introduced on the field in five exhibition games in Arizona and Florida. To this point, players have adopted a let’s-see-whathappens stance about hitters being required to keep one foot in the batter’s box, pitchers needing to complete their warmup tosses within a certain time period, manag-
ers staying in the dugout for instant replay challenges and generally everyone keeping the game moving along. For the first time, baseball, the summer game romanticized by generations for its timelessness, will be on the clock. And those newly installed clocks will be in full view for fans. Once there are three outs, Please see PACE | 13

Carolina State and Alabama-Birmingham, said there are no tricks to stopping a shooting slump. “All that I know how to do through playing experience and coaching experience is to get them reps and then put them in a position where we feel they can play to their strengths,” Kennedy said. “From there, they’ve got to take ownership.” Kennedy is confident the Rebels will be able to get it done. It’s a veteran team that has won big games in the past. Guard Jarvis Summers and forward LaDarius White were key contributors
Auto racing two seasons ago when the Rebels rallied to win the SEC tournament in 2013. They’ll both need to help Moody with some offensive production if they want to return to the Big Dance as seniors. Kennedy said his team won’t need any motivation. “Guys who are struggling know they are struggling,” Kennedy said on Saturday. “I’m a big believer in owning it. Let’s own it and figure out how to fix it. I’ve played this game and coached this game a number of years and you know how you fix it? You see that ball go in the basket. You don’t allow the negative to weigh you down.”

possibility. However, Delany has stressed the Big Ten could not act alone on a “year of readiness” for freshmen football and basketball players because it would put the conference at a competitive disadvantage. Slive’s statement made it clear the SEC has no interest in diving into the freshmen eligibility question for at least a couple of years. The NCAA initial eligibility standards go up starting with the freshman class of 2016. To be immediately eligible for competition, prospective studentathletes must have at least a 2.3 GPA, with a sliding scale tied to SAT scores. An SAT score of 1,000 requires a 2.5 high school core-course GPA for competition and a 2.0 high school core-course GPA for aid and practice. Prospects also must successfully complete 10 of the 16 total required core courses before the start of their senior year in high school. “A lot of thought and preparation went into
the new initial eligibility rules that go into effect in 2016. It is more appropriate to implement these new regulations and understand their impact before applying additional eligibility restrictions that may be more cosmetic than effective,” Slive said. Most college sports leaders have spoken out against the NBA’s rule requiring American players to be 19 years old and a year out of high school to be drafted. The rule has created the so-called one-and-done player in college basketball. “If this proposal is about student-athletes turning professional, we need to be careful not to create rules for a few that penalize the many,” Slive said. “The universe of studentathletes who leave early for professional sports is very small compared to the numbers that participate in football and men’s basketball. And just because a studentathlete enters professional sports does not mean he or she has totally abandoned their academic pursuits.”

inning breaks will be counted down from 2 minutes, 25 seconds for locally televised games and 2:45 for nationally televised games. Pitchers must throw their last warmup pitches before 30 seconds remaining and the batter must be in the box from 20 to 5 seconds left. MLB, with the blessing of the players’ union, is hoping to shorten the length of games — the average was just over 3 hours in 2014 — and eliminate delays to make it more appealing to TV audiences and those in the stands. During spring games and through regular-season games in April, players will not face any discipline should they not adhere to the clock or an umpire’s suggestion to stay in the box. That changes on May 1, when players can be fined. But on the eve of baseball’s spring timing experiment, everyone wondered what might be ahead. “I hope it’s not a distraction,” Kansas City center fielder Lorenzo Cain said as the Royals dodged the rain Monday in Surprise, Arizona. “I definitely don’t want to get fined, I need all my money. I definitely don’t want to get fined. I’m going to do the best I can. If it’s the rule, we have to try to abide by the rules and just go from there.” Boston slugger David Ortiz has been one of the
most outspoken critics of the changes. Big Papi argues that any interruption of his at-bat routine makes it easier for pitchers to get him out. Ortiz, though, has softened his stance and is adjusting. As he prepared to take batting practice last week in Fort Myers, Florida, Ortiz yelled to himself, “Stay in the box!” before stepping up to the plate. Hargrove, now a special adviser to the Indians, said some hitters step out gain their composure and get an edge on a pitcher. Others are simply posturing. It’s a game of adjustments, after all, and Francona believes hitters will be the ones who might need more time to adapt to having to stay in the box. “For some of the veterans it may be a test because if you’re used to doing something for years and years and years, your first thought after an umpire calls a borderline pitch is to go out and regroup,” he said. “It will be interesting to see how that’s handled.” During his tour of training camps over the past week, Tony Clark, head of the players’ union, has heard feedback from players concerned their careers could be impacted by the changes. A former All-Star first baseman, Clark said his biggest concern is making sure the game’s integrity is not compromised.

No franchise tag for Detroit’s Suh BY NOAH TRISTER AP Sports Writer
DETROIT — Ndamukong Suh can test the open market when free agency begins March 10 after the Detroit Lions did not use the franchise tag on the star defensive tackle. The deadline for teams to designate franchise or transition players came and went Monday, and the Lions did not say anything publicly about their decision. There was only a report early in the day on the team’s website saying the franchise tag’s price of around $27 million for Suh proved too daunting. Last month, general manager Martin Mayhew said he was optimistic about getting a deal done with Suh, but the franchise tag may have been the team’s best source of leverage, and actually using it could have come at a prohibitive cost. When the franchise tag
is used, a team must tender the player a one-year contract for a figure based on the average of the five highest salaries at his position — or for 120 percent of the player’s prior year’s salary, whichever is higher. It’s the latter provision that pushed Suh’s price tag so high, making it difficult for the Lions to use the franchise tag. “Obviously, you make that kind of financial commitment, it kind of determines what else you can do during the offseason,” Mayhew said last month. “So that’s something for the equation — the value of having him versus if we don’t get something done long term and losing him, what we’re able to get accomplished during the offseason.” Suh has been a force in the middle of Detroit’s defensive line ever since the Lions drafted him with the second overall pick in
2010. He has 36 sacks in five seasons, including 8 1/2 in 2014, when the Lions made the playoffs as a wild card while boasting one of the league’s top defenses. Suh has been hit with several fines in his career for his aggressive on-field actions, and he was nearly suspended for Detroit’s playoff game at Dallas last season — a one-game ban for stepping on Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers was overturned on appeal. But that occasional drama has done little to detract from Suh’s overall value to the Lions, who now face the prospect of having to bid against other teams for the 28-year-old All-Pro’s services. Detroit has become competitive again recently because of Suh, quarterback Matthew Stafford and wide receiver Calvin Johnson — all of whom came to the Lions via
high draft picks. That trio helped Detroit reach the postseason twice in the last four years. The Lions were able to secure Stafford and Johnson on long-term deals beyond their rookie contracts, but so far they’ve been unable to sign Suh. It’s been obvious all along that Suh’s status would shape the rest of Detroit’s offseason, in terms of the team’s free agent needs and perhaps its approach to the draft. Lions defensive tackle Nick Fairley is also a pending free agent. The offense is coming off an uneven season in which the line struggled to protect Stafford. Detroit released running back Reggie Bush last week, so the Lions may try to add a significant player at that position. The Lions did confirm Monday that they have re-signed backup quarterback Dan Orlovsky.
