Exhibit celebrates ‘Black History Every Month’ BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Third time’s a charm for printer Billy Clifton. The self-taught artist will return to Corinth this weekend for an special exhibit featuring his work. His paintings will be highlighted in “Celebrate Black History Every Month” exhibit at the Corinth Public Library through March 31. A opening reception is 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday. Clifton, who uses acrylics in his work, has been painting for more than 30 years. The Tupelo-based artist said he has dedicated his life to “painting my people in a positive light.” Paintings such as “A Night at the Race Truck” and “African Woman” show a very stylized realism. Other paintings subject matters include water and islands. “I am a small town artist making big things happen,” said Clifton. “God gave me a gift and I intend to use it, but I’m not arrogant or self absorbed. I paint pictures to send messages.” Presented by the Corinth Artist

“Hole in the Wall” is one of the acrylic paintings by Billy Clifton currently on display at the Corinth Public Library.

Guild Gallery, President Sonny Boatman is pleased to host Clifton for a third time. “Billy is remarkable artist,” said Boatman. “His pieces are very unique and unlike anything we currently have at the gallery.” Boatman said Clifton’s work is being presented at the library because Edward Wade Jr.’s “Out of Africa” exhibit has been extended to March 31 at the gallery. As part of February’s Black History Month observance, Wade’s work features African inspired tribal faces painted in watercolor. Some are graphite drawings, and the exhibit also includes a few of Wade’s still life, landscape and people paintings and drawings apart from the Africa exhibit. Clifton’s work can be viewed at the library at 1203 North Fillmore Street. Library hours are 9 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday through Friday and 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday.

Today in History Today is Friday, March 3, the 62nd day of 2017. There are 303 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History On March 3, 1931, “The Star-Spangled Banner” became the national anthem of the United States as President Herbert Hoover signed a congressional resolution.

On this date In 1887, Anne Sullivan arrived at the Tuscumbia, Alabama, home of Captain and Mrs. Arthur H. Keller to become the teacher for their deaf and blind 6-year-old daughter, Helen. 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 1945, the Allies fully secured the Philippine capital of Manila from Japanese forces during World War II. In 1959, the United States launched the Pioneer 4 spacecraft, which flew by the moon. In 1960, Lucille Ball filed for divorce from her husband, Desi Arnaz, a day after they’d finished filming the last episode of “The Lucille BallDesi Arnaz Show” (”Lucy Meets the Mustache”) on Arnaz’s 43rd birthday. 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 handed out hugs to residents who survived killer tornadoes that ripped through Alabama and Georgia and offered encouraging words at Enterprise High School, where students were grieving the loss of eight classmates.

Across the Region Iuka Deputies accuse man of selling methamphetamine IUKA — A Tishomingo County man has been charged with felony possession of a controlled substance with intent to sell. Dustin McCoy, 24, of 22 Railroad Ave. in Paden, was arrested on Feb. 25 after Tishomingo Sheriff’s deputies responded to an accident that had occurred on Highway 25, just outside the Iuka city limits. McCoy, who was the driver of the wrecked vehicle, became confrontational with the deputies. A search was then conducted of the wrecked vehicle and some alleged methamphetamine, marijuana and several other items that are used in the selling, packaging and weighing of the narcotics. The deputies also found notes in the vehicle that indicated the selling of narcotics along with a firearm as well. McCoy’s bond was set at $5,000 by Justice Court.

drunk in January 2016 when he drove his pickup truck on a sidewalk. Twenty-year-old Carli Elizabeth Sears of Charleston was killed. Sears was a student at the University of Mississippi and was in Morgantown visiting friends.

Bolivar, Tenn. One suspect arrested following teen shooting BOLIVAR, Tenn. — One of the two suspects is now in custody following the shooting of a Bolivar teen. According to the U.S. Marshals Service, Antonius Douglas turned himself in to marshals on Wednesday. He was wanted on a count of attempted first degree murder, having a gun as a convicted felon and another weapons count. A second named suspect, Keith Hussey Junior remains on the loose. 18-year-old Jarian Green was seriously hurt in the shooting.

Booneville

Pontotoc County

Woman charged with embezzlement

Officers report two highway fatalities

BOONEVILLE — A Booneville woman is accused of embezzling money at a local business where she worked. Julie Deanna Merchant, 39, of 209 Pierce Drive, Booneville, was arrested on a charge of one count felony embezzlement, said Booneville Police Chief Michael Ramey. “She is accused of embezzling approximately $1,408 from Hibbett Sports,” he said. Bond was set at $5,000.

PONTOTOC COUNTY — Two people died following wrecks at two locations in Pontotoc County Thursday morning. According to WTVA, one wreck happened on Highway 15 between Algoma and Pontotoc. At least five vehicles were involved. The Mississippi Highway Patrol confirms one fatality in this wreck. The name of the person has not been released as of this moment. On Highway 15, troopers originally responded to the scene for a one-car accident. This is where the fatality happened. As troopers were on the scene, another wreck happened at the same location, resulting in more vehicles being involved. More information concerning this wreck is expected soon. The other fatality happened at the intersection of Highway 278/345. Troopers say the wreck involved a car versus a motorcycle. Troopers are expected to release more details about this wreck soon.

Oxford Man sentenced in fatal hit-and-run of UM student OXFORD (AP) — A man who pleaded guilty in the hit-and-run death of a pedestrian in Morgantown has been ordered to a correctional center for young adults. Media outlets report a Monongalia County Circuit judge suspended a four-to-20year sentence for Alexander Hambrick on Tuesday. The judge instead ordered the 20-year-old Winfield resident to initially report to a regional jail before being sent to the Anthony Center in White Sulphur Springs. Hambrick pleaded guilty in December to driving under the influence with death and leaving the scene of an accident with death. Authorities say Hambrick was

Tupelo Daycare worker charged with child abuse TUPELO — A 54-year-old woman has been charged with felony child abuse for an incident that occurred at a daycare facility, reported the Daily Journal.

Johanna Dill, of Saltillo, was arrested Wednesday and charged with a single count of child abuse that allegedly happened at Stepping Stones Enrichment Center on Highway 145 just north of the Tupelo city limits. Lee County Sheriff Jim Johnson said that after reviewing surveillance video, it appeared the daycare worker did put the child in danger. He noted that the child has completely recovered for the minor injuries. Bond for Dill, who has no prior criminal charges, was set at $35,000.

Caledonia Teacher faces probable cause hearing in case CALEDONIA — A Lowndes County Circuit Court judge will determine whether or not the teacher at the center of a sexual misconduct investigation should be charged and arrested. According to WTVA, Chief Deputy Mark Miley says they are still interviewing eyewitnesses and potential victims of the teacher accused of sexual misconduct . Sheriff investigators have been working the case ever since school officials notified them Friday after receiving a complaint. They say the teacher abruptly resigned that same day. Miley says under state law since the teacher is a school official, he must be given a probable cause hearing in Lowndes County Circuit Court. State lawmakers passed the law in 2004 to eliminate frivolous allegations made against public officials including school employees. The chief deputy says the county prosecutor will present the findings of investigation to the court. If the judge finds enough probable cause for arrest, the teacher will be put in handcuffs at that time. Miley says they are working with the county prosecutor and circuit court to setup the hearing date.

Mooreville Investigation ends with sexual abuse charges MOOREVILLE — A Mooreville man was charged with four felony counts of sexual abuse Thursday. Lee County Sheriff Jim Johnson said the arrest of John Harley Tallant, 39, of Mooreville follows a lengthy investigation that will likely see more felony charges, according to the Daily Journal. “In February, it was brought to our attention that he was physically involved with his 4-year-old daughter,’ Johnson said. “We know of at least one count of sexual battery, where there was penetration. We have also charged him with three counts of fondling today. “We plan on presenting these charges, as well as numerous other charges, to the next grand jury. We are looking at similar charges with the same victim, as well as other felony charges not related to sexual abuse. “We also seized the computers and cell phones and are interested in images on the electronic devices.”

Corinth, Miss.

Chuck Schumer’s fake news Appearing recently on ABC’s “The View,” Sen. Chuck Schumer painted a picture of Republicans unhappy with their new president and getting ready to bolt for the door. “When you talk to RepubliStar cans quietly -- you know -- in Parker the cloak room and the gym -they are having real problems Columnist with him. ... My prediction is if he keeps on this path ... within three, four months you’re going to see a lot of Republicans breaking with him.” Schumer could not be more wrong. He seems to have diﬃculty in distinguishing between the rumblings of change and the rumblings of dissatisfaction. After some 36 years in Washington, Schumer likes the way things are and probably cannot conceive how fed up so many Americans are and how they crave real and substantial change. Last year, on average, only 25 percent of Americans expressed satisfaction with the direction of the country, according to Gallup. It’s been over a decade since this exceeded 40 percent. By any sober evaluation, America is going downhill. The economy is growing at a historically low rate; the national debt and deficits are growing as far as the eye can see; we spend more and more on public education with no change in test scores; poverty rates are static despite massive anti-poverty spending; the traditional American family is disintegrating; and America’s role as a respected and influential leader on the global stage is vanishing. Sorry to be so gloomy, but this is the picture. Yet, despite this, we have a class in Washington, the Chuck Schumers of this world, who want, more or less, to continue business as usual. What is business as usual? Continue with big government answers to every problem, continue with the moral relativism that is wiping out our families, that has gotten us to where we are today. Republican support of our new president is strong by historic proportions. According to a survey just released by the Pew Research Center, President Trump’s approval rating among Republicans and those leaning Republican (84 percent) is higher than first year approval ratings of the last three Republican presidents -- George W. Bush (82 percent), George H.W. Bush (82 percent) and Ronald Reagan (78 percent). President Trump’s attacks on many revered institutions -- our media, our courts -- is not just some personal thing of his but a reflection of how many Americans feel. The same Pew Research survey reports that 60 percent see President Trump as someone who “keeps promises” and 54 percent see him as someone “able to get things done.” Maybe it’s worth looking past all the noise for a moment to take a closer look at the vision and promises that Donald Trump served up in his inaugural address. Despite the deep divisions in the country today, Trump spoke about unifying the nation. “It’s time to remember that old wisdom our soldiers will never forget: that whether we are black or brown or white, we all bleed the same red blood of patriots, we all enjoy the same glorious freedoms, and we all salute the same great American flag. “And whether a child is born in the urban sprawl of Detroit or the windswept plains of Nebraska, they look up at the same night sky, they fill their heart with the same dreams, and the are infused with the breath of life by the same almighty creator.” No, Sen. Schumer. Republicans are not getting ready to bolt. Quite the opposite. The sounds you hear are the sounds of a great nation jockeying in preparation for a new chapter. What Abraham Lincoln, our first Republican president, called, “a new birth of freedom.” Star Parker is an author and president of CURE, Center for Urban Renewal and Education.

Prayer for today My Lord, make me a lover of the truth. Make me careful of my thoughts, and the words I would speak, that I may not think selfishly and speak cruelly, but keep myself holy unto thee. Amen.

A verse to share Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. —Psalm 100:4

Lavrov vs. McCain: Is Russia an enemy? The founding fathers of the Munich Security Conference, said John McCain, would be “be alarmed by the turning away from universal values and toward old ties of blood, and race, and sectarianism.” McCain was followed by Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov who called for a “post-West world order.” Russia has “immense potential” for that said Lavrov, “we’re open for that inasmuch as the U.S. is open.” Now McCain is not wrong. Nationalism is an idea whose time has come again. Those “old ties of blood, and race, and sectarianism” do seem everywhere ascendant. But that is a reality we must recognize and deal with. Deploring it will not make it go away. But what are these “universal values” McCain is talking about? Democracy? The free elections in India gave power to Hindu nationalists. In Palestine, Hamas. In Lebanon, Hezbollah. In Egypt, the Muslim Brotherhood, then overthrown in a military coup welcomed by the world’s oldest and greatest democracy. Have we forgotten it was a democratically elected government we helped overthrow in Kiev? Democracy is a bus you get oﬀ when it reaches your stop, says Turkish President

Recep Tayyip Erdogan, autocrat of Ankara, a NATO ally. Is freedom of religion Patrick a “universal Buchanan value”? Preach or Columnist proselytize for Christianity in much of the Islamic world and you are a candidate for martyrdom. Practice freedom of speech in Xi Jinping’s China and you can wind up in a cell. As for the Western belief in the equality of all voluntary sexual relations, in some African and Muslim countries, homosexuals are beheaded and adulterers stoned to death. In Nuristan Province in U.S.-liberated Afghanistan this month, an armed mob of 300 besieged a jail, shot three cops and dragged out an 18-year-old woman who had eloped with her lover to escape an arranged marriage. Beaten by relatives, the girl was shot by an older brother with a hunting rifle and by a younger brother with his AK-47. Afghan family values. Her lover was turned over to the husband. An “honor killing,” and, like suicide bombings, not uncommon in a world where many see such actions as commend-

able in the sight of Allah. McCain calls himself an “unapologetic believer in the West” who refuses “to accept that our values are morally equivalent to those of our adversaries.” Lavrov seemed to be saying this: Reality requires us to recognize that, in the new struggle for the world, Russia and the U.S. are natural allies not natural enemies. Though we may quarrel over Crimea and the Donbass, we are in the same boat. Does the foreign minister not have a point? Moscow does not command a world empire. Though a nuclear superpower still, she is a nation whose GDP is that of Spain and whose population of fewer than 150 million is shrinking. And Russia threatens no U.S. vital interest. Where America is besieged by millions of illegal immigrants crossing from Mexico, Russia faces to her south 1.3 billion Chinese looking hungrily at resource-rich Siberia and Russia’s Far East. The China that is pushing America and its allies out of the East and South China Seas is also building a new Silk Road through former Russian and Soviet provinces in Central Asia. With an estimated 16 million Muslims, Russia is threatened

by the same terrorists, and is far closer to the Middle East. Is Putin’s Russia an enemy, as McCain believes? Before we can answer that question, we need to know what the new world struggle is about, who the antagonists are, and what the threats are to us. If we believe the struggle is for “global democracy” and “human rights,” then that may put Putin on the other side. But how then can we be allies of President el-Sissi of Egypt and Erdogan of Turkey, and the kings, emirs and sultans of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait and Oman? But if the new world struggle is about defending ourselves and our civilization, Russia would appear to be not only a natural ally, but a more critical and powerful one than that crowd in Kiev. “We have immense potential that has yet to be tapped into,” volunteered Lavrov. But to deal, we must have “mutual respect.” Hopefully, President Trump will sound out the Russians, and tune out the Beltway hawks. Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of the new book “The Greatest Comeback: How Richard Nixon Rose From Defeat to Create the New Majority.”

America needs mentors and life coaches BY DR. GLENN MOLLETTE Columnist

A growing career industry across the country is life coaching. People are actually going into private practice opening oﬃces and spending hours every week giving direction to people and a listening ear. We have had psychiatrists and other mental health workers for years but now people are training to help others with just the most basic types of problems and questions. We live in an age where people are more desperate than ever for somebody to talk to. People have problems from spiritual, financial, to making daily decisions. People wonder about what to do with their lives. They don’t know how to get a job or what opportunities might exist for them. Millions of American kids pass through twelve grades of school and graduate clueless about what to do next. More than ever people need to know that their lives are not in vain. They do not exist to just create social media postings in hopes that a few people will “like” them. They need to know that if they do not make a

television reality show that they are still okay because every day they exist in their own reality show. The reality is that each American has an opportunity to have a real life. Life is never free from hurdles, work, challenges and usually grit and grind. However, there are ways to navigate the maze of living life. Bad things happen to people. People are brought up in broken homes, by single parents, in poverty, and surrounded by domestic violence. The scenarios are endless. This is why more than ever we need everyday life coaches who can help people with the simplest of life’s quests. Young adults up to old age seniors need guidance. You can find a lot of answers on Google but often people don’t know the right questions to ask. How do I write a resume’? What do I put on a resume’? How do I dress for a certain job interview? Where do I start to find a job? What are my career choices? How do I choose a career? How do I know what I am good at doing? How do I save money? How can I make my life

better? How can I avoid trouble? How do I start a business? How do I obtain financial aid for college? What do I have to do to be a schoolteacher, a lawyer, a doctor an engineer or other professional? My life is bad how can I change my life? I am unhappy with my physical condition what can I do to be a healthier person? I understand that not every counselor has an immediate answer to every person’s questions. However, answers are available and often a steady mind with a listening ear can help someone find an answer. Some people need help from a medical professional. Some need help from licensed clinical counselors. Many today just need some basic common sense direction. Churches today are utilizing Life Coaches. Sometimes it’s a trained minister but other occasions exist where there is a trained Life Coach connected to the church whose job is to help those in the community to find direction and guidance.

with violence would be well served to plant guidance coaches, mentors or life coaches throughout these troubled communities. In reality, it’s the job every parent should do. Unfortunately parents have either dropped the ball, flown the coup or just cannot pull their own lives together. Sadly in America we have so many dysfunctional families that life coaches are needed to help mom and dad as much as the young teens struggling in these scenarios. More law enforcement, more police dogs and more curfews are not going to solve the hurt being felt by so many lost young adults in America. More than ever these young men and women need community leaders, mentors and coaches with a listening ear and commonsense advice for living and achieving a better life.

Gala takes root in European, American tradition the routes that the three wise men took in order to visit Jesus and avoid Herod. In the days preceding plastic, a bean or a coin was hidden inside the cake, intended to bring good luck to whomever found it. In the present, the person who finds the plastic baby is supposed to buy the King Cake for the following year’s Mardi Gras party. Beyond those connections to Christmas, Carnival gets its origins, like Christmas, in pagan festivals such as the Roman Saturnalia and Lupercalia. Festivalgoers at these celebrations, like Mardi Gras, feasted and masqueraded. The most prominent Mardi Gras celebrations beyond Europe (Nice, France and Cologne, Germany) are held in Rio de Janeiro, New Orleans, and other French-Catholic coastal communities (such as Mobile) in the Southern U.S.—where masked revelers take to the streets and society balls.

Authorities sort out deadly crime spree BY MARGARET STAFFORD AND KEVIN MCGILL Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Mississippi investigators joined counterparts in Kansas on Thursday, hoping to secure evidence and interview the suspect in a three-state crime spree that included two Mississippi slayings, a New Mexico carjacking and the shooting of a store clerk west of Wichita. The store clerk, 19-year-old Riley Juel, was in stable condition at a Wichita hospital after Wednesday’s shooting in Pratt, Kansas. That’s where suspect Alex Deaton, 28, is suspected of stealing a car, which he later crashed, leading to his capture. Now, the question is who prosecutes him first. Authorities said Deaton is believed to have strangled his girlfriend, Heather Robinson, 30, late Wednesday, Feb. 22, or early the following day at her apartment in Rankin County, in the Jackson area. He’s suspected of then driving her white SUV to nearby Neshoba County, where 69-year-old Brenda Pinter was shot to death at a church she was cleaning on Feb. 23. Authorities say he also is suspected of wounding a jogger in Rankin County on Friday morning in a drive-by shooting. He is then believed to have headed west, still in Robinson’s SUV. Rankin Sheriﬀ Bryan Bailey said authorities began to link the Mississippi crimes once Robinson’s body was found Friday afternoon, when police found that her SUV was missing. Bailey said Thursday that the SUV has been recovered in New Mexico, where Deaton is suspected in the Tuesday carjacking and brief abduction of two hikers, one of whom was shot and wounded af-

“I was just scared I was going to die, ‘cause I was losing a lot of blood and I was going through a lot of pain. That’s the one thing I was just telling myself: ‘You cannot die ...’” Riley Juel ter they pulled the release lever in the trunk of their Honda to escape. Sandoval County, New Mexico, Sheriﬀ’s Lt. Keith Elder said Deaton then briefly stole a van and forced the woman to get in. When she jumped out, Elder said, Deaton returned to steal the couple’s Honda. He was spotted in a Honda Wednesday morning. He eluded police, but was captured later Wednesday after the theft of the car at the Pratt Kwik Stop, where Juel was shot. Juel told KSN News in Wichita on Thursday that he felt “something wasn’t right” when the suspect walked into the store while Juel was working his overnight shift. He said Deaton came directly to the counter and demanded the keys to Juel’s car but did not ask for money. When he handed the keys over, Deaton shot him at point-blank range, Juel said. “I was just scared I was going to die, ’cause I was losing a lot of blood and I was going through a lot of pain,” he said. “That’s the one thing I was just telling myself: ‘You cannot die; you have too much friends and family.’” He was able to call 911 and was alert until help arrived. He said he’s grateful to be alive and thanked the police oﬃcer who first arrived for “helping me, talking to me, keeping me there. If it wasn’t for him, I probably would’ve gone to sleep,” he said. Juel underwent surgery and is expected to be hos-

pitalized for about a week. Bailey said he believes Robinson was killed because she was trying to break up with Deaton. Neshoba County Sheriﬀ Tommy Waddell said he doesn’t know why Pinter was killed. Bailey said he hopes Mississippi authorities will get the first opportunity to prosecute Deaton. He said investigators from Rankin, Neshoba and the MBI were briefed Thursday morning on the Kansas and New Mexico cases. They hoped also to

ship, but revelry resumed in 1827. In 1837, the oﬃcial colors of Catholic-rooted tradition of Mardi Gras were selected: purple as a symbol of justice, green as a symbol of faith, and gold as a symbol of power. Thus, Mardi Gras brings together two worlds: the spiritual and the secular. Even though I grew up a Protestant, I still love celebrating it — especially when it involves delectable seafood dishes and traditional King Cake. The main point, no matter what, though, is to have a good time. As the French-based citizenry say down in New Orleans: “Laissez les bon temps roulez,” or, translated, “let the good times roll.”

that Mardi Gras began in New Orleans. However, the celebration in Mobile dates back to 1703, and New Orleans was not even founded until 1718. Fat Tuesday is today a legal holiday in Mobile, after Mobile Carnival Association successfully lobbied for holiday status a few years after it was formed in 1872. Nevertheless, most people will still associate the annual fête with the Crescent City. In New Orleans, the party tradition began with the French in the late 1600s, following the arrival of the aforementioned explorer Jean Baptiste Le Moyne Sieur de Bienville. His men arrived 60 miles south of New Orleans, naming the spot Pointe du Mardi Gras on the eve of the holiday. Unfortunately, the Spanish government took over the city in the 1700s, banning Mardi Gras celebrations. The ban stayed in place even after the U.S. government took owner-

speak with Deaton. The Kansas Bureau of Investigation coordinated a meeting in Great Bend involving its agents and those from Mississippi, spokeswoman Melissa Underwood said. She said investigators want to ensure that evidence at several crime scenes is being properly collected but “it might take some time to decide the question of extradition.” Deaton’s family issued a statement to Jackson media outlets Thursday. “Our family is deeply shocked, saddened and horrified at all that has unfolded since last Wednesday. We are devastated and completely heartbroken for all that has happened,” it said. “Our family is in a state of disbelief. “ It went on to say that Deaton’s family was praying for the victims and their families.

Mississippi may use gas chamber, electrocution for execution options Associated Press

JACKSON — The Mississippi Senate has voted to add gas chamber and electrocution as execution options in case courts block the state from obtaining lethal injection drugs. Lethal injection is Mississippi’s only execution method. The state faces lawsuits claiming drugs it plans to use would violate constitutional prohibitions against cruel and unusual punishment. The House voted Feb. 8 for House Bill 638 to

Mississippi hasn’t been able to acquire lethal drugs it once used, and its last execution was in 2012. The Death Penalty Information Center says of 33 states with the death penalty, only Oklahoma and Utah have firing squad as an option.

She said CPE student Leah Manus had already been volunteering at the shelter for an hour a day and was helping find homes for some of the animals. Bain said the students can go at diﬀerent times for their volunteer work. “They don’t even have to sign up. Some can go for an hour a day and some may go on Saturdays,” said Bain. The coordinator also added that the aid to the shelter does not stop at volunteering their time.

“We have a list of supplies that the shelter needs and we’re trying to donate supplies also,” said Bain. The CPE is the new version of what was once known as the “old co-op program” and Bain said the students begin getting out of school for the around noon to go to their jobs. “We have students working all over the community. The community is really supportive of the program. They always have been,” said Bain, who is in her 19th year as coordinator for the program. Prior to that, she spent 13 years working for BancorpSouth before she finished her degree and went into teaching.

Sessions steps aside from Russia probe amid tension BY ERIC TUCKER Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Under intensifying pressure, Attorney General Jeﬀ Sessions abruptly agreed Thursday to recuse himself from any investigation into Russian meddling in America’s 2016 presidential election. He acted after revelations he twice spoke with the Russian ambassador during the campaign and failed to say so when pressed by Congress. Sessions rejected any suggestion that he had tried to mislead anyone about his contacts with the Russian, saying, “That is not my intent. That is not correct.” But he did allow that

he should have been more careful in his testimony during his confirmation hearing, saying, “I should have slowed down and said, ‘But I did meet one Russian oﬃcial a couple of times.’” The White House has stood by Sessions in the latest controversy to dog President Donald Trump’s young administration, though oﬃcials say they first learned about his contacts with the ambassador from a reporter Wednesday night. Trump himself said Thursday he had “total” confidence in Sessions and didn’t think he needed to recuse himself — not long before he did. One of Sessions’ con-

versations with Ambassador Sergey Kislyak occurred at a July event on the sidelines of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland. At that same event, the ambassador also spoke with Carter Page, who briefly advised Trump’s campaign on foreign policy, according to a person with knowledge of the discussion. Separately, a White House oﬃcial said Thursday that Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, and ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn met with Kislyak at Trump Tower in New York in December. The oﬃcial described that sit-down as a brief courtesy meeting.

Stock market bump isn’t just Trump Associated Press

NEW YORK — The stock market is hitting new heights, and yes, excitement about President Trump’s policies is part of the reason for it. But it’s not the only one, analysts say. Even if Donald Trump had lost the election, many professional investors and analysts say they still would have expected stocks to rise, just perhaps not to the same degree. The Standard & Poor’s index has leapt 11.3 percent since Election Day, packing more gains into four months than it’s had in four of the last six full years. It dipped a bit Thursday, but it’s still close to its record set a day earlier. Here’s a look at some of the factors behind the strong run for stocks: ■ The Trump bump.

The first reaction for markets to Trump’s win of the White House was confusion. Many investors had been expecting a victory for Hillary Clinton, and markets around the world tumbled on election night as the result became apparent. But they reversed course within hours. The reason: Investors are expecting the Trump White House to push through tax cuts for businesses and to loosen regulations on them. ■ The economy is getting better. Growth has been frustratingly slow since the end of the Great Recession, but the job market is picking up steam. The unemployment rate in January was 4.8 percent, and economists see the economy as close to full employment. A report on

Thursday showed that the fewest number of workers applied for unemployment benefits last week since Richard Nixon was in the White House. Improvement was underway before Trump entered the White House, but his election has spurred things along. ■ Higher confidence all around. After years of hiding out in bonds and other safer investments, retail investors began creeping back into stock mutual funds and exchangetraded funds following the election. Investors plugged $20.7 billion into U.S. stock funds in November, the biggest month in nearly two years. They’ve followed that up with more purchases. That buying has helped to bid up stocks even more.

Trump’s new travel ban delayed Associated Press

NEW YORK — President Donald Trump was barely in oﬃce when he signed an executive order restricting immigration from seven Muslim-majority nations. There was not a moment to waste, he said, because any delay would allow the “bad dudes” to rush into the U.S. Then federal courts struck down his ban. The White House said a new version would be coming. The urgency seems to

have faded. There has been no further legal appeal. And announcement of a replacement order has been repeatedly postponed, a reflection of legal difficulties, shifting administration priorities and politics. It now won’t be unveiled until next week at the earliest, says a White House oﬃcial. “The holdup flies in the face of the mythology as to why they needed to rush the bill in the

first place,” said Doris Meissner, who was head of the Immigration and Naturalization Service for President Bill Clinton. “It was a contrived argument and a reflection of inexperience and a rush to fulfill a campaign promise.” The delay stands in stark contrast to the ban’s rollout, a swift action designed as the centerpiece of a barrage of executive orders to set a bold tone for the Trump administration’s first days.

The celebration of a lifetime begins here.

When you plan ahead, you can create a personal, meaningful send-oﬀ and provide your loved ones with true peace of mind.

Caterpillar offices raided in probe CHICAGO — Federal law enforcement officials raided three central Illinois facilities of manufacturer Caterpillar on Thursday as part of an investigation that the company said may be related to business with its Swiss subsidiary CSARL. Federal agents were seen wheeling large boxes into the Peoria, Illinois, headquarters of Caterpillar, one of the world’s largest makers of construction and other heavy equipment. Facilities in East Peoria and Morton, Illinois, also were searched under a federal warrant, U.S. Attorney’s office spokeswoman Sharon Paul said. “We believe the execution of this search warrant is regarding, among other things, export filings that relate to the CSARL matter,” Caterpillar said in a statement later on Thursday, referring to its Swiss subsidiary. Caterpillar spokeswoman Corrie Heck Scott said in an email that the company was cooperating with law enforcement. Paul said the agencies involved included the Internal Revenue Service’s criminal investigation unit, the U.S. Department of Commerce Office of Export Enforcement and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp.’s office of inspector general. She declined to comment further on the details of the investigation.

Drivers rebel against Uber’s price-cutting DETROIT — The face-off between Uber CEO Travis Kalanick and driver Fawzi Kamel illustrated a conflict between Uber, with its effort to grow by cutting prices to beat competitors, and drivers who have seen their pay reduced. The video of the argument — caught on dashcam and now viewed more than 3 million times on YouTube — includes yelling and profanity, and ends with a combative Kalanick dismissing an agitated Fawzi’s claims that sharp reductions in

fares forced the driver into bankruptcy. Harry Campbell, who drives for Uber in California, says driver pay has gone down while Uber’s corporate valuation has grown to over $60 billion. “I think a lot of drivers feel that Uber always looked out for themselves first and foremost and relegated drivers to a second tier,” he says. “What we’re looking at in that video is 21stcentury mobility technology and 19th-century labor relations,” said Harley Shaiken, a labor expert and professor at the University of California, Berkeley. The video exchange comes after a month of trouble for the ride-hailing behemoth including sexual harassment allegations from a female engineer, a lawsuit alleging technology theft, and a social media campaign encouraging riders to delete Uber’s app over claims that the company tried to capitalize when New York taxi drivers protested against President Trump’s immigration order.

Wave of airstrikes target al-Qaida SANAA, Yemen — U.S. forces carried out more than 20 airstrikes against al-Qaida in Yemen on Thursday, killing at least seven militants in the largest operation since a ground raid a month ago that left a Navy SEAL and more than two dozen Yemenis dead. The strikes targeted al-Qaida positions, weapons systems and equipment in a remote and mountainous area in central Yemen. Capt. Jeff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman, said the strikes were aimed at degrading the group’s ability to “coordinate external terror attacks” and to limit its use of Yemen as a “safe space for terror plotting.” Yemeni security officials told The Associated Press that U.S. jets and drones targeted at least six districts where the provinces of Bayda, Shabwa and Abyan meet. An official said the strikes killed seven al-Qaida militants in Shabwa and Abyan. The pre-dawn attack shook houses and

awoke sleeping residents, many of whom fled in fear, as smoke billowed into the sky and explosions lit up the horizon, according to local tribal leaders, who spoke on condition of anonymity out of security concerns. Al-Qaida issued a statement claiming that local fighters foiled a U.S. ground raid in the southern province of Abyan. It said U.S. naval vessels launched a wave of random shelling to provide cover for the forces to pull out. Several U.S. officials flatly denied that the U.S. participated in any ground raid in Yemen. They said U.S. airstrikes targeted al-Qaida artillery and other sites, and that no U.S. Navy ships participated in the mission.

Jailed officers rocks city’s justice system BALTIMORE — They were just seven officers on a police force of more than 3,000, but the Baltimore detectives charged with theft, fraud and conspiracy had an outsized crimefighting role in a city plagued by violence. The sweeping federal indictment calls into question each and every case touched by these men, with potentially catastrophic consequences for the city’s already fragile criminal justice system. “It’s a nightmare,” said Natalie Finegar, Baltimore’s deputy public defender. “There’s going to be hundreds and we’ll sort through every story.” They were members of the Gun Trace Task Force, a unit dedicated to getting illegal guns off the streets of Baltimore, and were involved in hundreds of cases in the past two years. Federal prosecutors say they used their position to terrorize the community. The indictment announced by U.S. Attorney Rod Rosenstein describes them threatening the innocent, detaining people on false pretenses, stealing their money, faking police reports, lying to investigators, defrauding their department, and flagrantly disregarding reform efforts by turning off their body cameras.

Pension system may offer higher salary JACKSON — A bill headed to the governor would let Mississippi offer a higher salary while seeking a new director for its Public Employees Retirement System. The current PERS director, Pat Robertson, intends to retire in 2018. She is one of many state government employees whose salary is limited to no more than 150 percent of what the governor is paid. With the governor’s salary at $122,160, the cap is $183,240. Democratic Sen. Barbara Blackmon of Canton says House Bill 1301 would lift the cap and let the PERS board offer a higher salary. Robertson’s pay would not be affected. Republican Sen. Sean Tindell says he was told the PERS board intends to set a top salary of $215,000. The bill had already passed the House, and it cleared the Senate Thursday.

Woman accused in Medicaid fraud case JACKSON — A 37-yearold Meridian woman is free on bond after being charged with Medicaid fraud by a Rankin County grand jury. Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood, in a news release Wednesday, said Shanika Keys surrendered to authorities Monday, was processed into the Rankin County jail and released after posting $5,000 bond. The indictment accuses Keys of submitting false claims for services that were never rendered for a Medicaid recipient, while she was employed as a personal care assistant for a healthcare agency in Flowood. If convicted, Keys faces up to five years in prison and a $50,000 fine. It was unknown if Keys is represented by an attorney.

The Sun Herald reports 45-year-old Matthew Danko of Kiln faces an aggravated assault charge. Hancock County sheriff’s Chief Investigator Glenn Grannan says Danko had driven the stranded motorist to a gas station Monday and they were returning to her car when the woman’s boyfriend, Vance Starita, pulled up behind them and tried to get Danko to pull over. Danko stopped at a gas station, where Grannan says the men got into a fight. Grannan says at some point, Danko pulled a pocket knife and stabbed the boyfriend in the back. Authorities say Danko told investigators he stabbed Starita in self-defense. It’s unclear if Danko has an attorney.

I don’t know what it’s going to take to get people’s attention,” Busby said. “I don’t know that we’re honoring anybody if we put a sign for them beside a highway that we’re not going to maintain.” Busby made his mo-

tion the day after Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, a Republican, killed a bill in the Senate that would have authorized an internet tax to pay for road repair. The Mississippi Economic Council, the state’s chamber of commerce, called Wednesday for immediate action on road funding. “Mississippi roads matter. It’s time to fix our crumbling roads and bridges,” Joe Frank Sanderson, the CEO of Laurel-based poultry company Sanderson Farms, said at a news conference. Sanderson Farms is Mississippi’s largest publicly held corporation.

Nissan faces fine, union rally looms JACKSON — A federal workplace safety agency wants to fine Nissan Motor Co. more than $21,000, saying the company’s Mississippi plant should have better trained a maintenance worker who lost three fingers in July. The citations were issued weeks before a Saturday rally to support unionization by the United Auto Workers, where pro-union speakers are likely to denounce the company’s safety record. Nissan, though, defends its safety record as “significantly” better than average. The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration, in proposed citations Feb. 10, said the company failed because the worker didn’t know how to disable the line before he tried to work on it. OSHA also demanded that Nissan install buzzers and lights that would warn workers before a conveyor line started.

Yellen speaks Federal Reserve officials have signaled recently that they’re closer to supporting another rate hike. The central bank boosted its benchmark interest rate by a quarter-point in December. It was the second hike, following an initial quarter-point move in December 2015. Federal Reserve Chair Janet Yellen delivers a speech on the economy in Chicago today. Will she send a clearer signal about the timing of the Fed’s next rate hike?

My husband and I would like to have a party Abigail to celebrate, we’re not Van Buren but sure if we should. Dear Abby None of our friends are anywhere close to paying off their mortgages. We made the choice to drive old cars while our friends all have beautiful new ones, and we were genuinely happy for them each time they proudly showed them off. I’m a stay-at-home mom, and I am our friends’ emergency contact for their kids at school. They have taken amazing vacations, and we have enjoyed their stories and photographs. We used the time and money trips would have cost to stay home and work on projects around the house. We haven’t envied them; we just had different goals. Should we celebrate this -just the two of us, or with our friends? -- DIFFERENT GOALS IN NEW MEXICO DEAR DIFFERENT GOALS: True friends celebrate each other’s victories. With no more

mortgage to pay, you and your husband will now be able to enjoy some of the things your friends have been enjoying all these years. While some couples would prefer to mark the occasion with a special dinner at a nice restaurant, if you’re inclined to do otherwise, then throw a party. You deserve it. DEAR ABBY: I have been married to a wonderful man for 38 years. The issue is that sometimes I get insanely jealous. It isn’t an everyday occurrence, but I become insecure because I feel my husband is too attractive to other women. My husband is very outgoing and I am an introvert. I find myself accusing him, and he tells me I need to stop it. He reassures me that I’m the only woman he loves and wants in his life. I don’t want to destroy our wonderful marriage. I consider myself attractive. I need to stop letting my lack of self-confidence get the best of me. Please help. -- INSECURE IN OHIO DEAR INSECURE: I wish I could wave a magic wand and make your feelings magically disappear, but I can’t. The answer to your problem lies in finding out the cause of your deepseated insecurity, because that’s what triggers your jealousy. Until you do, nothing will change. A

licensed mental health professional can help you get to the root of it and provide the tools to deal with it. Your physician should be able to refer you to someone who is qualified. DEAR ABBY: I’ve been with my husband for five years, but we’ve been married only for a year. He told me a few months ago that his ex-girlfriend said he is the father of her child. We did a home DNA test and it showed he is not the father. In spite of that, my husband insists he still wants to take care of the child. I don’t know what to do. Please help. -- THROWN IN NEW YORK DEAR THROWN: It appears that what your husband wants is to maintain a close tie to the child’s mother, because that is what will happen if he takes financial responsibility for her child. Tell your husband you want to discuss this with the help of a professional mediator, preferably a marriage counselor. If he refuses, talk to an attorney because you may be needing one. 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). In an environment with strict rules that most are inclined to follow, new ways of thinking are hard to come by. But since the problem won’t be solved without a good idea, you may want to go somewhere different to think about it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You won’t be sorry if you err on the side of kindness and restraint today. This will be easier to do when you relax and get a little distance on the day’s potentially tense situation. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It so often happens in life that it’s not the best one who wins the prize; rather, the winner is the best fit for the particular prize. This is just one more reason not to take it too personally, win or lose. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Just as a tree crashing in the forest does not count as a sound if there is no ear to hear it, your own creative impulses require a sounding board. Find one, or you won’t be motivated to continue. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Be-

cause you’re inwardly quiet and outwardly observant today you will witness an instance of touching minutiae capable of expanding your heart like a sail to send you floating on the breezes of the day. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There are many societal rewards being used to bribe you along a certain path. If they only knew that you have your own reasons for being on this journey, reasons far more rewarding than anything they could provide. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Handling stress well is the skill to build on, as it will reward you time and again throughout your life. Learn how to better process bodily sensations associated with stress. It will be worth the time and money you put into it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your happiness will be the result of following an impulse to explore and learn. Your research will lead you to concepts, next steps and, most importantly, people who can help you take them.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ve seen ravens, maybe hundreds of them, and they’ve all been black. It suggests, but doesn’t prove, the color of all ravens. Use what you learn, but don’t assume that all the facts are in yet. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The people who know you well can anticipate, among other things, your time of arrival, general appearance and the conversational topics you’re likely to choose. But today you’ll surprise them. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Though it may not be easy or even possible to change today’s circumstances, it may very well be possible to change the way you experience them -- a change that will absolutely help you reach your goal. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your closest friends and loved ones are not always your best support system. You are right to cater your sharing to your audience. Let people earn the right to know certain things about you.

Lady Braves win; Northeast men lose BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

There was action Thursday evening on the diamond as well as the hardwood. However, several scheduled softball games were canclled or postponed for various reasons. HS Softball

Tishomingo County 22 Alcorn Central 5 The Lady Braves spotted the Lady Bears two runs in the top of the first inning but responded with 14 in the bottom of the first to take control of the game. Tishomingo County plated

six more runs in the second to take a commanding 20-2 lead after two. Alcorn Central found new life and responded with a three-spot in the top of the third but head coach Jeremy Reece’s squad answered with two more and the game was called after three and a half innings due to the mercy rule. The Lady Braves improve to 2-1 with the win while the Lady Bears dropped to 0-1.

Tupelo 8 Corinth 3 Corinth head coach Maggie Vonderstein took her team to Lee County to face the 6A Lady Wave and were compet-

itive in an 8-3 loss at Tupelo High School. McKenzie Patterson was the lone Lady Warrior with multiple hits and Colby Cox drove in two of Corinth’s three runs. McKenzie took the loss on the mound. JC Basketball

Voice of the Bulldogs Jim Ellis to retire Mississippi State Sports Information

STARKVILLE — Learfield has announced that Mississippi State alum and veteran broadcaster Jim Ellis will be retiring from calling football and men’s basketball at the conclusion of the 2017 basketball season. Ellis, an integral member of the Bulldogs’ broadcast team for nearly 40 years, will however continue his role with baseball as “Voice of the Diamond Dogs.” Ellis, a native of West Point, Miss.. and a 1969 graduate of Mississippi State, assumed the play-by-play role for football and men’s basketball at the start of the 2011-12 athletic season following the retirement of legendary voice Jack Cristil. In addition to calling baseball, he had been serving as the

weekly call-in show host for all three sports and hosting the weekly coaches’ television shows. In 1998, 2002, 2013 and 2014, Ellis was named “Outstanding Broadcaster in Mississippi” by NSMA (National Sports Media Association) while representing Bulldog Sports Network and Learfield’s Bulldog Sports Properties. Since 1983, Ellis has been a part of MSU’s basketball broadcast team, including the Bulldogs’ memorable 1996 NCAA Final Four run. He became a radio analyst for MSU football in 1991 before taking over the play-byplay duties in 2011. Ellis was on the call for the memorable 2014 Bulldog football season that saw the program rise to the No. 1 ranking for the first time in history. “For over 30 years, our

Bulldog faithful have listened to Jim’s familiar voice,” MSU Director of Athletics John Cohen said. “From his days as an analyst to current playby-play broadcaster, he’s had a front row seat to tell the story of some of the greatest moments in Bulldog history. Jim has been a true professional behind the microphone and represented Mississippi State with class and dignity. We are thankful to his service, and we are glad he will continue to be the voice to many Diamond Dawg baseball memories in the future.” As Mississippi State Athletics’ multimedia rightsholder, Learfield manages all broadcast operations for the Bulldogs and immediately will spearhead a national search for Ellis’ two-sport replacement. According to Vice President, Broadcast Operations

Tom Boman, “Jim, without a doubt, will continue to be part of the fabric of Mississippi State with his legendary voice and life-long aﬃnity to the Bulldogs. He has been a special part of this university, and we thank him for lending his talents to calling so many memorable moments for these programs over the years.” “I consider it a privilege to have served Mississippi State, a university I love, as a part of the radio sports broadcasts for over 30 years,” Ellis said. “Many thanks to the many coaches, players and administrators who have made it a joy to bring the Maroon and White story to the Bulldog faithful. I also want to thank the many MSU fans who have followed their BullPlease see ELLIS | 11A

GREENVILLE, SC. — Senior Taylor Manuel (St Louis, Mo.) was nearly unstoppable inside with 19 points for the Rebels but Ole Miss couldn’t overcome poor shooting in the second half, falling to LSU 65-49 in the second round of the SEC Tournament on Thursday. Manuel led the way for Ole Miss with 19 points – the second most points for the Missouri native this season. Shandricka Sessom (Byhalia, Miss.), who had on oﬀ night from the floor with just six points led the way on the glass with eight rebounds. Madinah Muhammad (Chicago, Ill.) added 12 points. Ole Miss (17-13) started the game on a tear jumping out to a 9-0 advantage behind a game opening jumper from Manuel and punctuated by a triple from Sessom

forcing the Tigers to call a timeout at the 6:18 mark. The Tigers finally got their first bucket at the 6:03 mark but Ole Miss extended its lead to 12-4 a long triple from Muhammad but the Tigers started to chip back at it at the end of the half using a 11-4 spurt to cut Ole Miss’ lead to 16-13 at the end of one quarter of play. Ole Miss shot The Rebels extended their lead to 11 points, 30-19, at the 3:06 mark of the second quarter but it was LSU who got hot late in the quarter using a 10-0 to close the half, cutting Ole Miss’ lead to just one point at the halftime break. “I’m real proud of our team. Obviously we’ll be in the WNIT. I’m proud of our players and of Taylor Manuel here. It was a good night tonight. We’ll take a couple days oﬀ, go home and be a better basketball team.”

Graceland opens new entertainment complex BY ADRIAN SAINZ Associated Press

This magazine contains information about area churches including worship times, weekly events and other church information. What a great way to let everyone know what your church has to offer. Publishing the Friday before Easter - April 14th. Deadline to be a part of this special publication is March 27, 2017 For More Information Contact Our Advertising Staff at 662-287-6111 Derinda Nunley ext. 304, Laura Holloway ext. 307 or Skylar Mincey ext. 308

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Nearly four decades after Elvis sang his last tune, his legacy got a $45 million boost with the Thursday opening of a major new attraction at his Graceland estate -- an entertainment complex that Priscilla Presley says gives “the full gamut” of the King of Rock ’n’ Roll. About 200 people streamed into “Elvis Presley’s Memphis” after the late singer’s wife cut a ribbon and allowed fans to see the $45 million complex for the first time. Resembling an outdoor mall, the 200,000-squarefoot campus sits across the street from Graceland, Presley’s longtime hometurned-museum. The complex features a comprehensive Presley exhibit with clothing he wore on stage and guitars he played; a showcase of the cars he owned and used; a soundstage; a theater; two restaurants and retail stores. “You’re getting the full gamut of who Elvis Presley was,” Priscilla Presley said during an interview after the grand opening. “You’re getting to see and participate a bit in his life and what he enjoyed and what he loved to collect.” It’s part of a $140 million expansion, which also includes a $90 million, 450-room hotel that opened last year. The complex replaces the aging buildings that have housed Presley-related exhibits for years. An old, gray, strip-mall style visitor center will be torn down to make room for a greenspace along Elvis Presley Boulevard, the street that runs in front of the house.

Graceland has been updating its tourist experience. Visitors now use iPads for self-guided tours of the house. The new Guest House at Graceland, with modern amenities like glass-encased showers with wallmounted body sprays and Keurig coﬀee makers in room, has replaced the crumbling Heartbreak Hotel, which is scheduled for demolition. “We want to keep updating ... If you don’t keep up with what’s going on in the times, you get left out,” Priscilla Presley said. She was joined at the ribbon-cutting by Elvis Presley Enterprises CEO Jack Soden and Joel Weinshanker, managing partner of Graceland Holdings. The opening comes just before the 40th anniversary of Presley’s death on Aug. 16, 1977, at age 42. Adults pay $57.50 for a standard tour of the house and access to the complex. Visitors can also choose to tour just the house for a lower price. Discounts are oﬀered for seniors and children. A self-guided tour of two airplanes owned by Presley is $5 more. From the ticketing area, people line up to wait for buses that take visitors to the museum, or they can move through the entertainment complex’s large, high-ceilinged buildings. Gladys’ Diner — named after the singer’s mother — has the feel of a 1950s eatery, complete with pictures of Presley, aqua-colored chairs and stations where patrons can order hot dogs, burgers and ice cream. There’s also Presley’s favorite: Gladys’ World Famous Peanut Butter

and Banana Sandwich, fried in bacon grease. Another PB&B sandwich is cooked in butter. Across a wide walkway lies the automobile museum, filled with some of Presley’s favorite toys. Among them is a pink 1955 Cadillac Fleetwood — a custom painted model that he gave to his mother — and a sleek, black 1973 Stutz Blackhawk that he drove the day he died. The walkway leads to the 20,000-square foot museum called “Elvis: The Entertainer,” which features white and purple jumpsuits he wore during concerts and gold-colored guitars he played on stage. Several retail stores line the complex. A second restaurant, a barbecue joint called Vernon’s Smokehouse — named after Presley’s father — will also open. So will an exhibition focused on Sam Phillips, the Sun Records producer and rock ‘n’ roll pioneer who recorded Presley for the first time. The complex is still being finished. Priscilla Presley said there’s a warehouse full of artifacts, ready for display. Among the fans eager to get a glimpse at the new exhibits was Carol Carey, a retiree who made the short trip across the state line from Southaven, Mississippi, with her son. Wearing a pink shirt with the words “Wild About Graceland” on it, Carey beamed a wide smile as she talked about the complex. “We couldn’t wait to see it,” she said. “We’ve been here every other day, checking it out. Getting used to saying goodbye to the old, and seeing friends who are all taking pictures of everything.”

Can you say ‘Follow me where I go?’, do it? Follow me where I go. Is this a phrase that you can say to others and have no doubt a b o u t where you are leading them? M a n y years ago DenGary John ver penned Andrews and sang this song Devotionals and it was well received by the public. I remember watching a you tube video recently where the groom played this song to his bride as they started on their marital journey together. This country classic has a tremendous message. It can be interpreted in many

Suggested daily Bible readings Sunday – Ephesians 2:8; Monday –Genesis 24:1-9; Tuesday – 2 Timothy 4:3; Wednesday -2 Kings 6:18-23; Thursday – John 3:16; Friday –Psalm 23:1-6; Saturday – 1 Corinthians 7:10-11 ways and used by many people in a various assortment of ideas. The first verse reads, “Follow me where I go, what I do, and who I know; Make it a part of you to be a part of me. Follow me up and down, all the way, and all around; Take my hand and say

you’ll follow me.” When a couple first marries and the husband asks his wife to follow him they are making a lifelong commitment to each other. Most couples that agree to follow each other and help each other usually make it with a marriage that is good and wholesome and the oﬀspring they produce are great assets to all humanity and all of their surroundings. Following someone is not only related to marriage. Young athletes follow coaches and do what they ask them to for a great period of their life. School teachers do the same thing with their students. Visionaries ask people to follow them and catch on their vision of bettering a

place or a project. However I think the most important person that any of us could follow is Jesus Christ. He tells us in John 14:6 as He was talking to His disciple Thomas when He said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” As we live our time on earth we are always going to be following someone or something to help us have a better way of life. Nothing on this earth can give or promise us eternal life. When we surrender ourselves to Jesus through faith, we are submitting to His guidance and leadership and putting His will above our own. Living on earth is no so simple how-

ever when we decide to accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior it becomes simple. Once we do so, we are agreeing to submit and surrender ourselves to Jesus, to pattern our lives after Him and to place our relationship with Him above our own will and desires. The biggest problem to this is putting the world behind us and not giving in to the desires of the flesh. Another verse of Denver’s song says, “It’s long been on my mind, you know it’s been a long, long time; I’ve tried to find the ways that I can make you understand. The way I feel about you and just how much I need you, to be there where I can talk to you, when there’s no one else around.”

Even though some marriages fail, projects fall apart that you count on, coaches and teachers disappoint you, but Jesus will never leave you. He understands you because He created you. All we have to do is have faith in Him and accept Him to reap the rewards of an eternal life. Prayer: Thank you Lord for being with me each and every day. I pray that I can be a witness for you in anything that I do. Guide and direct my paths as I go through this world. Amen.

Loving those vehicle commercials about how safety matters Don’t you just love Subaru commercials? I don’t own a Subaru, have never even ridden in one – but if I was depending on TV advertisements Lora Ann to help me Huff choose a vehicle, Back Porch I would h e a d straight to the Subaru dealer. Their commercials strike right in the heart – of this mother, at least. Their SUV is supposed to be the top safety pick and have the most dependable vehicle rating in 2016 by Kelley’s Blue Book people. And the ads naturally show people who have walked away from terrible car accidents because of the safety features built into the Subaru. The TV ads show parents bringing their newborn home from the hospital – and also sending the grown-up child oﬀ to college in these “safe and dependable” vehicles. From today’s shiny new designs to the older SUV’s with an oﬀ-colored replacement door, they’re seen to be sturdy and dependable. I don’t know who the writers are for these advertisements, but I can identify with their ideas.

They know how to get our attention. What parents are not concerned about the safety of their children? We want to haul them safely to kindergarten, turn them loose in a dependable vehicle when they first begin to drive, and then send them to college in something that will be structurally safe and mechanically dependable. Most of the car and truck manufacturers show oﬀ their shiny new vehicles and appeal to our lust for class and glitz, but Subaru appeals to our heartstrings. They know the first concern for us parents is safety and dependability, not chrome and sleekness. … So as I was watching one of the advertisements and thinking about the safety of our children, I was reminded that although a dependable vehicle is wonderful, the safety net of salvation and eternal security are even more important. When we’re raising our kids and sending them oﬀ to college, the most important thing they can have is a keen knowledge of who God is and what they have decided to do with Jesus. When I left home for college, yes, I needed a safe way to get there, but more than that, I needed the solid foundation that had been established during my growing-up years at home and in my church.

I knew that regardless of where I was, Someone more powerful than any earthly force was with me. Beyond any shadow of doubt, I knew it! As I listened to a supposedly smart speaker tell us that the historical parts of the Bible are just handme-down stories, not factual accounts, I knew what to do with his words. My mother had taught me better than that a long time ago! When I heard a student ask a teacher to “prove” to him that there is a God in the first place, I was so thankful for the people in my past who had already helped me find answers to such questions. The teach-

er gave the best answer he could but knew the student would have to keep searching until he experienced God for himself. I’m doing all this rambling to say that in our vehicles, whether they are new and shiny or older and dull in color, we should be driving our children and grandchildren to a good, Bible-based church on a regular basis. As we teach them about the wonders of God at home, they need desperately to be involved in Sunday School, Vacation Bible School, Awana – anything that helps build the strong foundation they can stand on when faced with all the challenges of adulthood

later on. … So yes, I love the Subaru commercials and maybe one day they will do one that shows the family piling into the SUV to go to Easter Sunday service. Wouldn’t that be a good

one? (Lora Ann Huﬀ is a Wenasoga resident and special columnist for the Daily Corinthian. Her column appears Friday. She may be reached at 1774 CR 700, Corinth, MS 38834.)

IS JESUS TRULY YOUR LORD? Like the word “gospel” (or “good news”) took on a higher meaning after the resurrection of Jesus (I Cor. 15:1-4; Rom. 1:16, 17), so it was with the word “lord.” “Lord,” as used in scripture, comes from the Greek word “kurios” and refers to one who has “power or authority.” In its lower meaning it was commonly translated “master, owner, or Sir,” as it applied to men of wealth or position. However, after His resurrection, Jesus, while commissioning His disciples to go and teach the gospel to all nations, declared, “All authority is given to Me in heaven and on earth” (Matt. 28:18-20). From this point on, the higher meaning of the word “Lord” to refer to the authority of Jesus superseded the lower meaning. A short time later, in the first recorded gospel message after the resurrection, Peter proclaimed that God had “made this Jesus...both Lord and Christ” (Acts 2:36). W.E. Vine reports that thereafter (with only two exceptions) “there is no record that “kurios” was ever again used by believers in addressing anyone except God and the Lord Jesus.” This is one of many reasons why Christians should sanctify in their hearts “Christ as Lord” (I Peter 3:15). Peter, as an inspired writer and a Christian, called Jesus “Lord” about twenty times in his two short letters in the New Testament. Three times in his second letter he called Him “Lord and Saviour,” and you will recognize that many preachers call the lost by asking them to accept Jesus as their “Lord and Saviour.” Of course, this is something we must all do, but it involves much more than a mere mental recognition of Jesus’ position. We must accept His authority, His right to tell us what to do to be saved. If not, He would no doubt ask us, “But why do you call Me “Lord, Lord,” and do not the things which I say?” (Luke 6:46). If we do not accept the Lord’s terms of forgiveness, have we truly accepted Him as our Lord? And if He is not truly our Lord, how can He be our Savior? That is a blunt question, but be honest--can He be the latter without being the former? You know the answer to that, don’t you? The Lord was often blunt about what we must do and the consequences of disobedience-- Read John 8:24, Luke 13:3, John 3:5, Mark 16:16 to see for yourself. Come study and worship with us.

Dear Annie: I am here wondering: How many times do you go out to eat and expect a free meal? Never, right? So I am really baﬄed by how someone could attend a wedding (either single or with a date) and find it acceptable to leave a gift of just $100 for two people, let alone $0. Sure, there are certain financial circumstances that may hinder someone’s ability to contribute. But here is my stance: If you can’t aﬀord to cover your plate, why go? A wedding is intended to be a celebration unifying the new couple’s lives together. It is not a foundation they set up to make donations for their guests and give them free meals. It’s expensive; everyone knows this. Regardless of who pays for the event, I find it appalling that so many adults would not properly contribute in any fashion — and not even feel embarrassed about it! Maybe their parents fell short in the manners department when raising them. After being a part of several weddings, I am seriously perplexed by this lack of etiquette. It’s very disappointing. I’m now planning my own wedding, and I find myself left with the dilemma of not wanting to invite certain individuals because I know they

Dear Annie wouldn’t give any sort of gift. The most upsetting part is this happens to be the case with several of my family members (who are in good positions financially). I know I really can’t address it among them, but this has happened at two of my siblings’ weddings, and I know it would occur for mine. I don’t want to cut family members oﬀ, but if they wouldn’t contribute, then I feel that I am left without a choice. What do I do? — Tired of Wedding Freeloaders Dear Tired: Are you planning a wedding or running a business? It’s common courtesy to bring a gift to a wedding, sure. I agree with you 100 percent. But you can’t be so concerned with the return on investment. Invite your loved ones because you love them and want them at your wedding, not because you’ll get your money’s worth. Ultimately, taking the high road will make you feel like a million bucks. Dear Annie: I believe the advice you gave to “Very Disappointed Mother-in-Law,” who

has concerns about her daughter but feels shut out by her son-in-law, was pretty accurate in terms of what she was looking for. But I feel that you missed one thing in your response. You didn’t address the part where she said she believes that her daughter is manic. As someone who suﬀers from bipolar disorder, I know firsthand that if someone is manic — especially someone who is alone with children — it needs to be addressed immediately. When you’re manic, your behavior can be very erratic and dangerous. If she truly suspects that her daughter is manic, she needs to get her to her physician to be examined and put on medication if necessary. Her daughter may even need to be hospitalized to get this under control and her mental health properly assessed. — Bipolar in Kentucky Dear Bipolar: Thank you so much for raising that concern. I’d like to echo that sentiment. Anyone experiencing symptoms that indicate the possibility of bipolar disorder should talk to his or her doctor immediately.
