March winter madness Sheet of sleet makes for unsafe road conditions

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

The Crossroads got through a slippery morning commute Thursday with no major accidents, although several motorists found themselves in ditches or stuck while trying to get up a hill.

Many businesses closed for the day, and traffic was very light in the morning hours when a layer of sleet topped with a little snow covered the streets.

Around noon, Alcorn County Third District Supervisor Tim Mitchell was hoping to see some sunshine.

“The roads are still iced over pretty good,” he said. “We haven’t seen a lot of improvements.”

But the sun did eventually peek through the clouds. A bit of melting that began towards late morning initially worsened conditions.

“We started having some problems with some of the in-

tersections where they had a little grade to them,” said Police Chief Ralph Dance. “The 18-wheelers had a little trouble at South Parkway and 72. They couldn’t get up the grade there.

We had to have one towed, and we had one off in a ditch.”

He had his own encounter with the slippery conditions at a fast food restaurant while sitting in the drive-thru line.

While stationary, his vehicle suddenly started to slide down the slope of the parking lot, taking him out of the line.

Street Commissioner Philip Verdung said driving conditions in the city, with a careful hand, were not too bad.

Also, “It seemed that people were a little more cautious today than they typically would be,” he said.

The icy accumulation wasn’t an easy one to clean up.

“Sleet … there isn’t much you can do with it,” said Mitchell, Please see WINTER | 2A

Pickwick Lake will return to its normal levels For the Daily Corinthian

PICKWICK, Tenn. — The Tennessee Valley Authority announced Thursday that Pickwick Landing Reservoir will return to normal summer lake levels on schedule by mid-April,

depending on rainfall.

During the next six weeks TVA will also install an early warning system to notify downstream residents should an earthquake occur that is large enough to damage the dam’s

south earthen embankment.

While the dam is performing as designed, the water level at Pickwick was lowered to winter levels several weeks early last October so the embankment investigation and analysis could

be completed.

“TVA and the industry are using more stringent criteria today to evaluate dams. This is based on our modern-day understanding of how embankment dams constructed

like Pickwick perform in large earthquakes,” said John McCormick, vice president of Safety, River Management and Environment. “Although the Please see PICKWICK | 2A

Girl Scout promotes pet awareness

The Gold Award represents the highest achievement in Girl Scouting.

To receive the award, the Girl

Scout must identify a community problem and bring awareness to the problem.

To earn her Gold Award, Biggersville High School senior Ansley Burns knew she wanted

A half dozen requests for variances from code requirements for building projects came before the Board of Aldermen on Tuesday.

Most of the requests are for residential properties, but one involves a new building for a business, Fastenal.

Plans for a new carport at the Rick Willis residence at 1021 Taylor Street with a rear setback reduction from 35 feet to 5 feet gained approval over the objections of a neighbor.

Willis plans to remove an old attached garage and construct a new detached carport 12 feet by 30 feet in size.

Suzanne Sandy opposed the setback request.

Attorney William Odom, representing Sandy, raised a number of objections, including the proximity to Sandy’s property, the potential for drainage problems to arise on the Sandy property, and the increased visibility of the structure, which he said will affect neighborhood aesthetics and property values.

Board of Adjustment and Planning Commission member Lee Thurner defended the

advisory board’s recommendation of approval.

“I maintain that the property values will be enhanced rather than diminished by the destruction of a decrepit old garage and the construction of an attractive carport structure,” he said.

Among the other requests: ■ Fastenal gained a front setback variance from 50 feet to 30 feet for a planned new building in the area of 2000 Highway 72 East Annex. In the written application, Robert Scott, acting as agent for Martin-Aycock Properties, said the site topography allows better use of the lot if the proposed building is closer to the highway, and other properties are closer to the highway than the location of the proposed building.

The city board did express some concern about associated truck traffic using Waukomis Lake Road.

Circus to halt elephant acts Associated Press

POLK CITY, Fla. — The family that owns the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus won’t say just what it was that made them finally decide to remove elephant acts from the “Greatest Show on Earth.”

The move announced Thursday is bittersweet and didn’t come easily, Feld family members said.

Elephants have symbolized this circus since P.T. Barnum brought an Asian elephant named Jumbo to America in 1882. Animals have been part of their show since

Barnum formed his “traveling menagerie” in 1870.

“It was a decision 145 years in the making,” said Juliette Feld, who now helps run the circus company with her sisters and father, Feld Enterprises Inc. President Kenneth Feld.

Animal rights groups immediately took credit Thursday, saying it was their pressure that led to Feld’s decision. Kenneth Feld denied that.

“We’re not reacting to our critics; we’re creating the greatest resource for the preservation of the Asian elephant,”

likelihood of a large, damaging earthquake is small, the safety of downstream communities, industries, the public and our employees is our top priority.”

Very large earthquakes such as those that occurred near New Madrid, Mo., in 1811 and 1812 would be of concern for the Pickwick embankment, McCormick said.

That earthquake reached 7.5 on the Richter scale,

according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

TVA is installing multiple layers of seismic detection equipment that will send a notification to TVA and the National Weather Service of any change in the embankment. If necessary, a notification for downstream residents to seek higher ground will be sent via the National Weather Service.

But Feld acknowledged that because so many cities and counties have passed “anticircus” and anti-elephant” ordinances, it’s difficult to organize the tours of three traveling circuses visiting 115 cities throughout the year.

Fighting legislation in each jurisdiction is expensive, he said.

that our community has such a large amount of discarded pets that are neglected. The local shelter is overflowing and so many animals are in need of a loving home,” said Burns. “I wanted to have an event to bring awareness to the neglected animals in the community, along with helping to educate people about animal care.”

With help from her mom, Donna Johnson, Burns will host P.A.W.S. (Pet Awareness, We Serve) Pet Show on Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon at Petsense in Corinth.

The special event will include a pet show for dogs and cats and a stuffed animal pet show for preschoolers. An expert animal care provider will speak about animal care and answer questions.

Animals will also be available for adoption.

Burns, who recently turned 18 years old, is a long time member of Alcorn County Troop 20001. She first joined Girl Scouts when she was in kindergarten.

“I have always had a healthy respect and love for animals and I hope I can instill some of those same qualities with peo-

ple in the community,” said Burns.

Donations for the Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter will also be accepted during the pet show.

“The donations will be used to aid the needs of the local shelter,” added Burns. “The shelter is always in need of pet food, toys and other items.”

Today in History

State/Nation Associated Press

Today is Friday, March 6, the 65th day of 2015.

There are 300 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On March 6, 1857, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Dred Scott v.

Sandford that Scott, a slave, was not an American citizen and could not sue for his freedom in federal court.

On this date: In 1836, the Alamo in San Antonio, Texas, fell to Mexican forces after a 13-day siege.

In 1933, a national bank holiday declared

by President Franklin D. Roosevelt aimed at calming panicked depositors went into effect. Chicago Mayor Anton Cermak, wounded in an attempt on Roosevelt’s life the previous month, died at a Miami hospital at age 59.

In 1935, retired Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., died in Washington two days before his 94th birthday.

In 1944, U.S. heavy bombers staged the first full-scale American raid on Berlin during World War II. In 1970, a bomb being built inside a Greenwich Village townhouse by the radical Weathermen accidentally went off, destroying the house and killing three group members.

In 1983, in a case that drew much notoriety, a woman was gang-raped atop a pool table in a tavern in New Bedford, Massachusetts, called Big Dan’s; four men were later convicted of the attack.

In 1995, “The Jenny Jones Show” taped an episode on same-sex crushes during which Jonathan Schmitz learned his secret admirer was an acquaintance, Scott Amedure; three days later, Schmitz fatally shot Amedure.

(Schmitz is serving a 25to 50-year prison sentence for second-degree murder; the episode was never included in the “Jenny Jones” syndication package, but did air on Court TV.)

Ten years ago: Italian journalist Giuliana Sgren said American soldiers gave no warning before they opened fire on the car carrying her to the Baghdad airport, killing the Italian agent who’d just won her freedom after a month in captivity. The White House called the shooting a “horrific accident” and restated its promise to investigate fully. Actress Teresa Wright died in New Haven, Connecticut, at age 86.

OXFORD — Paying to park around the Square in downtown Oxford may soon get easier and a little more expensive for those who seek convenience.

The Oxford Downtown Parking Advisory Commission has voted to recommend to the Board of Aldermen to approve a new phone app that will allow visitors and residents to pay for parking from their phone using a debit or credit card.

The Oxford Eagle reports it will cost the user 10 cents more

per transaction. Currently, there is a 25-cent fee to pay for the meters using a debit or credit card in the meter.

With Passport’s Mobile Pay, a user will pay 35 cents per transaction. That means if they pay for one hour, they will be charged $1.35. If they pay for three hours, they will be charged $3.35.

One feature with Passport allows users to put money in their “wallets,” foregoing a usage fee for each transaction.

Users can pay using the app

on their phone, online through their website, or by calling or texting from their phone for those without data plans.

The app allows users to extend their time on the meter without having to get up from their lunch or dinner to feed the meter.

Passport also works with local merchants to extend parking discounts to Passport users.

Mike Harris, director of parking and transportation with the University of Mississippi, said the university will also be using Passport with its meters when

Mississippi man running for president

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — A businessman who led the Internal Revenue Service from 2003 to 2007 says he’s running as a Republican for president because he wants to make federal tax laws more consistent and less complex.

Mark W. Everson said he wants to replace part of the federal income tax with a consumption tax called a value-added tax, keeping the income tax in place on higher-level earners. He also says he wants to restructure entitlement programs, including Social Security; set a military draft and system of national service; and break up banks that are poorly managed.

Everson, 60, is a New York native and has lived in several states and in Zambia, Turkey and France. He now lives on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.

During an interview with The Associated Press before his Thursday campaign launch, Everson acknowledged he’s entering the race with significantly less name recognition and money than other Republican candidates such as Jeb Bush and Rick Perry.

“They’re raising serious money, but we’re going to raise seri-

ous issues,” Everson said Tuesday in the lobby of a downtown Jackson hotel.

He said his net worth is about $3 million, and he plans to spend about $250,000 of his own money to travel to states such as Iowa that are important in the early stages of the 2016 race.

“I wouldn’t be doing this if I didn’t believe I’ve got a chance,” he said. “I think that who becomes president is not up to Wall Street and the fat cats across the country. It’s up to the voters.”

Everson, a Yale graduate, was a deputy commissioner for the Immigration and Naturalization Service in the mid-1980s, under President Ronald Reagan.

He worked in the private sector from 1988 to 2001, for a large packaging company, American National Can; and for LSG SkyChefs, a catering company for airlines. After George W. Bush became president in 2001, Everson went to work for the federal Office of Management and Budget. Then, in 2003, Bush nominated him to be commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service.

Everson became president and CEO of the American Red Cross in May 2007, and the board demanded his resignation six

months later after he acknowledged having an extramarital relationship with a Red Cross employee who worked in Mississippi. Everson and the woman both divorced their spouses.

Everson and his former work subordinate did not get married but they are raising their 6-yearold son together in Gautier, Mississippi.

He said he accepts responsibility for the breakup of his marriage.

“I failed as a husband. It was entirely my fault,” Everson said.

He also said he has tried to learn lessons and to be a good father to his young son, describing him as “a spectacular guy.”

“I’ve made mistakes, and I don’t think that that precludes one from going forward and trying to contribute,” Everson said.

In 2009 and 2010, Everson worked in the cabinet of Indiana’s Republican governor, Mitch Daniels, who had been his boss at the Office of Management and Budget. Everson was commissioner of the Indiana Department of Administration and then commissioner of the Department of Workforce and Development. He now works for a tax services company, alliantgroup.

Hillary Clinton email trove under review

BY STEPHEN BRAUN Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The government will review a huge cache of Hillary Rodham Clinton’s emails for possible release after revelations she conducted official business as secretary of state in the shadows of a private account. The disclosure has raised questions in the buildup to her expected presidential run about whether she adhered to the letter or spirit of accountability laws.

The matter is expected to result in the eventual release of thousands of emails from her private account, opening a new window on her tenure in high office and providing potential fodder to critics.

Officials said Thursday the review by the State Department could take months, potentially a drawn-out distraction for Clinton and an unnerving development for the many Democrats who see her as the party’s presidential nominee-in-waiting for 2016.

Secretary of State John Kerry, in Saudi Arabia, said Thursday his department “will undertake this task as rapidly as possible in order to make sure that we are dealing with the sheer volume in

a responsible way.”

The review was prompted by the disclosure that Clinton, in a departure from predecessors, relied exclusively on the private account for emails about government business. The emails were sent from a private computer server using an Internet address that traces back to Clinton’s family home in Chappaqua, New York.

The department announced the review soon after Clinton addressed the matter for the first time, saying on Twitter that “I want the public to see my email.

I asked State to release them.”

Her spokesman and the State Department have said she never received or transmitted classified information on her private email account, so there would appear to be no concerns about compromising national security.

“She had other ways of communicating through classified email through her assistants or her staff, with people, when she needed to use a classified setting,” said Marie Harf, speaking for the State Department. Officials have said that Clinton has turned over more than 55,000 pages of emails to the department.

Clinton’s email practices gave her significant control over access to her message archives, highly unusual in government. They also could complicate the State Department’s legal responsibilities in finding and turning over official emails in response to any investigations, lawsuits or public records requests. The department would be in the position of accepting Clinton’s assurances she was surrendering everything required that was in her control.

The matter also raises questions about whether anyone in government examined Clinton’s private email server and network before it began operating and continued to review it regularly during her tenure. Federal regulations subject the computer systems of some contractors and other organizations to federal oversight when they interact with government systems to ensure they are protected.

Under the Freedom of Information Act, the government can censor or withhold emails to protect information that would hurt national security, violate personal privacy or expose business secrets or confidential decision-making in certain areas.

State could add centuries to property trust law

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — Wealthy people would be allowed to put property in trust for up to 360 years in Mississippi, under a bill that advanced another step Thursday in the state Senate.

Current Mississippi law allows trusts to last about 90 years. The trusts allow people to protect assets and reduce their tax liability.

Sen. Sally Doty, RBrookhaven, said other states allow “dynasty trusts” that are 360 years or longer, and one state — Delaware — allows permanent trusts.

She said Mississippi banks and attorneys could lose business if Mississippi residents go elsewhere to establish a trust.

“The reason we’re doing this is because other states have become very flexible in their trust law,” Doty said Thursday during a Senate debate on House Bill 153.

The Senate Democratic leader, Hob Bryan of Amory, said he applauds the success of people who have worked hard to accumulate wealth, but he doesn’t see the point of the state setting a policy that allows them try to control what happens more than three centuries from now.

“The people working in the factories back home, who are going to work, working eight hours a day and getting a paycheck at the end of the week — this legislation isn’t doing anything to help them,” Bryan said Thursday. “They don’t have some tax avoidance scheme down at the bank with the trust officer and their tax attorney.”

Sen. Chris McDaniel of Ellisville, a tea party-backed Republican who frequently disagrees with Bryan, told the Democrat: “You’re actually making good sense today.”

The bill passed the Senate 24-21 Thursday. It will go to final House-Senate negotiations.

Senators defeated a proposal by Republican Sen. Briggs Hopson of Vicksburg to put a 110-year limit on real estate being put into trust.

Hillary stays silent until it’s too late

BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN Columnists

Why is Hillary in hiding? No speeches. No major appearances. No tours. Just meetings with advisors and potential donors.

She knows she faces a potentially dangerous situation, seeking first the nomination of a very left-wing party and then looking to get elected by an increasingly centrist country. Presidential candidates always face this divide, but rarely has a party been as far over on the extreme of the ideological spectrum as today’s Democratic Party. Hillary has to be wary of saying things to attract the nomination that make it hard for her to win the election. Bill would be especially sensitive to this conundrum, having faced it himself in 1992.

But, back then, the Democrats were much more moderate than they are today. Then it was possible for Clinton to win votes in the Democratic Primary by espousing capital punishment and promising to “end welfare as we know it.” No more. The quasi-Marxists who run today’s Democratic Party wouldn’t settle for such apostasy.

So Hillary is opting for silence rather than for the kind of explicit red meat rhetoric the Democrats of today demand. Fortunately for her, she has a path to the nomination that is clearer of obstacles and competition than that of any non-incumbent since Richard Nixon in 1960. Even vice presidents like Humphrey (’68), Bush (’88) and Gore (2000) faced tough opposition to win their party’s nomination. But Hillary is, functionally, unopposed.

Her hope is that she can keep silent long enough so that when she does speak out and move to the center in anticipation of the general election, it will be too late for the left to mount any real opposition to her candidacy.

In this context, Elizabeth Warren may be the best thing to happen to Hillary. By being so outspokenly populist and attractive to the Occupy Wall Street movement, she becomes an obvious focus for anti-Hillary feeling in the Democratic Party. But she may be a decoy, determined not to run and willing to clear the field for Hillary. Whether wittingly or unwittingly, she is helping Mrs. Clinton mightily.

(Warren reminds me of Bobby Kennedy in 1966 and 1967 when he refused to run against Johnson but nevertheless became the focus and center of Democratic opposition to Johnson’s Vietnam War policies. Finally, in 1968, Eugene McCarthy’s strong showing in the New Hampshire Primary induced Kennedy to abandon his reticence and jump into the race. But, until then, he helped Johnson by distracting attention from the anti-war candidates who were willing to run. That’s really what Warren is doing now).

Can Hillary get away with silence? That’s up to the left of the Democratic Party. And so far, they are taking the Warren bait.

(Dick Morris, former advisor to the Clinton administration, is a commentator and writer. He is also a columnist for the New York Post and The Hill. His wife, Eileen McGann is an attorney and consultant.)

Prayer for today Lord God, I pray that I may be fair, and not pass judgment on those whom I like or those whom I dislike, and so bring unhappy regrets. May I remember that, though hasty judgment often may be temporary, the gain or loss of a friend may be permanent. Amen.

China’s 100-year marathon In reflecting on relations between the United States and China, Henry Kissinger in his 2011 book, “On China,” notes that since he and Richard Nixon ventured to Beijing more than 40 years ago, “Eight American presidents and four generations of Chinese leaders have managed this delicate relationship in an astonishingly consistent manner, considering the difference in starting points.”

Kissinger diplomatically avoids saying that almost every presidential candidate over the years has campaigned against the Nixon-Kissinger policy and is perhaps taking pride in the fact that every president has continued it. Forty-plus years is a long time for a democracy to have maintained the same controversial policy.

Too long a time, says one of those elite Americans who has managed that policy in both Republican and Democratic administrations, for the policy is based on false premises and could lead to disasters a generation from now. That’s the message of Michael Pillsbury, in his new book, “The Hundred-Year Marathon: China’s Secret Strategy to Replace America as the Global Superpower.”

This represents something of a conversion experience for Pillsbury, who

not only subscribed but contributed to the dominant policy of “constructive engagement” Michael with China Barone for many years.

He, Columnist like many others, assumed that increased economic ties with the West and the resultant greater prosperity would move China inevitably toward capitalism, human rights and democracy.

But it doesn’t seem to have worked out in practice.

China’s economy, Pillsbury argues, is still very much controlled by and directed toward the interests of its state-owned enterprises.

Capitalism maybe, but not free market capitalism.

As for democracy, Pillsbury mocks former colleagues who have hailed China’s local government elections. They’re a sham, he argues. Control is still in the hands of Communist party leaders in Beijing and with the shadowy hardliners, especially in the military, behind them.

He doesn’t doubt that the demonstrators in Tiananmen Square in June 1989 sought real democratic advances. But they were mowed down by the hundreds or thousands on

the orders of Deng Xiaoping, and there have been no such risings since.

Hopes that China would become a cooperative force in the world have also faded.

Instead, China is threatening its neighbors over islets in the East and South China Sea and adapting U.S. technology to build asymmetric weapons to render U.S. forces ineffective.

Chinese strategists prize, in Kissinger’s words, “subtlety, indirection and the patient accumulation of relative advantage.” Chinese leaders have been pursuing what Pillsbury calls a “hundred-year marathon,” patiently trudging toward a goal of replacing the United States as the world’s dominant power by 2049, 100 years after Mao Zedong’s victory in the Chinese Civil War. So far, 65 years down, 35 to go.

In the meantime, “we don’t know we are losing the game.” In 2049, he says, China could have an economy three times the size of ours, could suppress dissent and squelch democracy not only in China but abroad, could export pollution and proliferate weapons without serious opposition.

Pillsbury doesn’t address the arguments that China’s rise may slow; that with an aging population it may get old before it gets rich; that with a smaller and more ex-

pensive work force it may sink into a static and deflationary economy like Japan’s. Nor does he grapple with predictions that China’s difficult language and subtle culture may prove less attractive than America’s more accessible English and popular culture.

He would presumably argue that it’s foolish to rely on such contingencies.

Better, he says, to try to encourage China’s potential reformers and hope they overcome the ying pai hardliners who seem today even more dominant under Xi Jinping.

How to do that? Develop a competitive strategy and quit supporting China in acquiring technology. Support Chinese dissidents as Soviet and Eastern Bloc dissidents were supported in the Reagan years. Target Chinese corruption, censorship and pollution.

Most important, recognize that China’s leaders want not only to surpass but to suppress us and our way of life. A warning to take seriously.

Tim Ford guided House into modern era The House that freshman state Rep. Tim Ford joined in 1980 was one ruled by an all-powerful speaker who took care of his friends, ignored his enemies and marginalized the relatively small number of African American lawmakers – a group that had grown from four to 17 in the election that brought Ford to the Legislature.

Before his career was over, Ford became a remarkably effective leader of the Mississippi House of Representatives at a time when the chamber had been rocked by a bloody political battle between “old guard” legislators and a group of so-called House “rebels.”

Ford was not a leader of the “rebel” group that sought to unseat entrenched Democratic House Speaker C.B. “Buddie” Newman of Valley Park. Newman was an old school legislator who ruled the House with an iron fist.

But Ford was the acceptable compromise candidate for speaker who helped put the House back together.

challenges by fellow representatives Tommy Walman and then Ed Perry to win election Sid Salter as speaker by acclamation Columnist – mostly with the support of the “reformers.”

Ford served as speaker from 1988 through 2004.

Quick with a laugh and peaceable by nature, Ford’s frequent good-hearted admonition to quarreling lawmakers to “be sweet” during spirited floor debate set a different tone in the chamber.

Since 1976, Mississippians have seen the tenures of eight governors and seven lieutenant governors. But only four House speakers have served the state over the last 39 years. Newman held the post from 19761988.

Former Speaker William J. “Billy” McCoy of Rienzi held the post from 2004 through 2012. Current House Speaker Philip Gunn of Clinton became

the first Republican since Reconstruction to lead the chamber of the Mississippi Legislature in 2012.

Before Gunn, Democrats controlled the House Speaker’s post in Mississippi for over 135 years. Beginning with Speaker Walter Sillers in 1944 and continuing until Newman was ousted in the infamous House Revolt of 1987, all House speakers ruled with an iron first - rewarding those loyal to the speaker and punishing those who bucked him.

Those 1987 House reforms limited the speaker to two four-year terms, restricted the speaker’s committee appointment powers and redistributed power on the “money” committees Appropriations and Ways and Means.

Ford succeeded Newman in 1988. But the 1987 “reforms” eroded and Ford was eventually able to win back the power to succeed himself as speaker and served 16 years in the post.

Ford early on saw the political and policy benefit of making members of the House Black Caucus

a strong part of his ruling coalition. Men like Rep. Percy Watson moved into positions of influence that had their beginnings under Ford and grew stronger under McCoy. I found Ford to be genuine and a man of his word.

We sparred over open meetings and open records legislation in the early 1990s, but he listened and granted the Mississippi Press Association an audience to let us plead our case on First Amendment issues.

For the son of a successful Baldwyn physician who had not known poverty himself, Ford had real empathy for the less fortunate and was a friend of public education at all levels. Ford knew how to make a legislative deal and how to compromise on methods without compromising his principles.

Ford left Mississippi better than he found it when he entered public service – and that’s a powerful legacy.

FDA: Little evidence of milk antibiotics WASHINGTON — In an encouraging development for consumers worried about antibiotics in their milk, a new Food and Drug Administration study showed little evidence of drug contamination after surveying almost 2,000 dairy farms.

In response to concerns, the agency in 2012 took samples of raw milk from the farms and tested them for 31 drugs, almost all of them antibiotics. Results released by the agency Thursday show that less than 1 percent of the total samples showed illegal drug residue.

Antibiotics and other drugs can end up in milk when they are used on dairy cows to keep them healthy. Small levels of some drugs are allowed in milk, but residues that go beyond certain thresholds are illegal.

“Overall this is very encouraging and reinforces the idea that the milk supply is safe,” said the FDA’s William Flynn, who led the study. He said the agency will use the findings to try and reduce the drug contamination even more.

Public health groups are concerned about the levels of animal antibiotics that make it into food because consuming the drugs could potentially be harmful to humans.

Largest banks pass Fed’s ‘stress tests’ WASHINGTON — All of the nation’s 31 largest banks are adequately fortified to withstand a severe U.S. and global recession and keep lending, the Federal Reserve said Thursday.

Results of the Fed’s annual “stress tests” show that as a group, the 31 banks are stronger than at any time since the 2008 financial crisis struck, thanks to a steadily recovering economy. The results build on positive outcomes from last year’s tests.

Some industry analysts say the most critical tests for the industry will come next week.

That’s when the Fed will announce whether it’s approved each bank’s request, if one has been made, to raise dividends or repurchase shares. Those results will be based on how each bank would fare in a severe recession if it

took such steps.

“This week’s tests are a more modest standard than what we will get next week,” said Cayetano CarrascoGea, senior director at Moody’s Analytics.

The banks undergoing the stress tests included JPMorgan Chase & Co., Bank of America Corp., Citigroup Inc. and Wells Fargo and Co. — the four biggest U.S. banks by assets.

The Fed has conducted stress tests of the largest U.S. banks since 2009, when the tests were designed to restore badly shaken confidence in the U.S. financial system.

Survey: Most back same-sex marriage WASHINGTON — In the late 1980s, support for gay marriage was essentially unheard of in America. Just a quarter century later, it’s now favored by clear majority of Americans.

That dramatic shift in opinion is among the fastest changes ever measured by the General Social Survey, a comprehensive and widely respected survey that has measured trends on a huge array of American attitudes for more than four decades.

Support for a right of same-sex couples to marry has risen 8 percentage points in the past two years and jumped 45 points since the question was first asked in 1988, when only 11 percent of Americans said they agreed with the idea.

The survey now finds that only a third of Americans are opposed to gay marriage.

The largest shift in support since 2012 has come among Republicans, just under half of whom — 45 percent — now support marriage rights for same-sex couples. That’s a jump

of 14 percentage points since 2012.

“Many things don’t change a lot. Most things change very slowly,” said Tom W. Smith, director of the General Social Survey. “This is one of the most impressive changes we’ve measured.”

The General Social Survey is conducted by NORC, an independent research organization based at the University of Chicago, with funding from the National Science Foundation.

U.S. clears officer in Ferguson case WASHINGTON — The Justice Department on Wednesday cleared a white former Ferguson, Missouri, police officer in the fatal shooting of an unarmed black 18-year-old, but also issued a scathing report calling for sweeping changes in city law enforcement practices it called discriminatory and unconstitutional.

The dual reports marked the culmination of months-long federal investigations into a shooting that sparked protests and a national dialogue on race and law enforcement as the tenure of Attorney General Eric Holder, the first black person to hold that office, draws to a close.

In pairing the announcements, the Obama administration sought to offset community disappointment over the conclusion that the shooting of Michael Brown was legally justified with a message of hope for Ferguson’s majority-black citizens.

Officials announced 26 recommendations, including training officers in how to de-escalate confrontations and banning the use of ticketing and arrest quotas, for the police force and municipal court.

Lawmakers recall former Speaker Ford JACKSON — Mississippi lawmakers are remembering former House Speaker Tim Ford as a skilled politician who cared deeply about the state and his colleagues.

Ford was 63 when he died of a heart attack Friday in Oxford. The Baldwyn Democrat served in the House starting in 1980 and was speaker from 1988 to 2004.

Legislators packed into the House chamber for a memorial service Thursday.

Democratic Rep. Steve Holland of Plantersville recalled that the deal making to elect Ford as speaker didn’t take place in the Capitol. It happened at a favorite legislative hangout, the old Sun-N-Sand hotel.

Saturdays to make up for snow days HERNANDO — DeSoto County students will pay for all the unexpected, weather-related holidays of recent weeks by going to school on two Saturdays and an extra day at the end of the school year.

The Commercial Appeal reports board members on Wednesday approved March 21 and April 11, both Saturdays, as makeup days, along with tacking May 26 onto the calendar at the end.

The two Saturday dates will be 60 percent days, meaning students will not have to attend a full day, but May 26 will be a regular school day.

And more Saturday

classes will come after officials closed Thursday in response to the latest round of winter weather.

Biloxi mayor submits letter of resignation BILOXI — Mayor A.J. Holloway has submitted his resignation, effective Tuesday, March 10.

A one-page letter dated March 5 was delivered Thursday by the mayor’s brother, Kenny Holloway, to David Nichols, director of administration.

The Sun-Herald reports the mayor says in the letter that while it has been an honor to serve, “an accumulation of health issues” led to his resignation. Holloway checked into alcohol rehab on Jan. 29. Nichols says the mayor is no longer at the rehab facility.

The 74-year-old Holloway was in his sixth term and is Biloxi’s longestserving mayor.

Council President Kenny Glavan said he expects to call a special meeting for 10 a.m.

5 internal applicants emerge for fire chief STARKVILLE — Officials say ten applicants, including five Starkville firefighters, are vying to become the city’s next fire chief.

Personnel Director Randy Boyd tells The Commercial Dispatch the five internal candidates include Fire Marshal Stein McMullen, Battalion Chief Curtis Randle, Capt. Andy Sharp, Firefighter Heath Vaughn and Training Officer Charles Yarbrough.

Starkville’s human resources department also released the names of the external candidates Jimmy N. Austin, Michael R. Chandler, Christopher D. Gale, Keith G. Juneau and Terry J. Tucker.

Of the five external candidates, three are currently working for fire departments in north Mississippi, and two are out-of-state applicants, Boyd said in an email.

Many from my generation, of course, recall Mayim Bialik, who plays Sheldon’s girlfriend Amy Farrah Fowler, from her title character in the 1990s show Blossom. Perpetuating the appreciation of nerd culture, Bialik, who has a Ph.D. in neuroscience, is the only one of the cast who actually holds an advanced science degree.

Sometimes it’s fascinating simply to witness the quirky attire the characters sport in each episode, particularly Sheldon’s shirts. Often, Sheldon wears a t-shirt with the number 73 emblazoned on front. In one particular episode, he explains his intellectual fascination with that number: The best number,” he says, “is 73. Why? 73 is the 21st prime number. Its mirror, 37, is the 12th and its mirror, 21, is the product of multiplying 7 and 3... and in binary 73 is a palindrome, 1001001, which backwards is 1001001.” Leonard responds, “73 is the Chuck Norris of numbers!”

I feel a kinship with the nerdy ensemble, as they are a group after my own heart. And, I, too, am partial to the number 73, which just happens to be the year of my birth.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Watch for our Crossroads Magazine 2015 Spring Edition coming out on Saturday, March 28.

American family’s face of future is multiracial DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are both Caucasian. Recently, we adopted a beautiful mixed-race baby girl. She’s Vietnamese, African-American and Hispanic. She is not even 4 months old, and already we have experienced some negative comments from strangers.

Where we live is progressive and open-minded, and I’m not so much Abigail c o n c e r n e d our Van Buren about neighborhood or schools.

Dear Abby But I’m no dummy.

I know we’re going to encounter people who have “questions” or unwarranted “opinions” (to put it nicely).

I’m not trying to educate those who choose to remain ignorant, nor reason with the unreasonable, or even explain our family and our choices. I just want a quick, witty response that tells people their not-so-nice comments are unwelcome and, to put it frankly, back off. Any suggestion?

— OPEN-MINDED IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR OPEN-MINDED: Accord-

ing to the 2010 census, 9 million Americans (2.9 percent of the population) are multiracial.

It also showed that the number of people who reported multiple races grew by a larger percentage than those reporting a single race.

Frankly, I don’t think you should say anything “witty” to a bigot.

Just smile and say, “It’s the wave of the future. Get used to it.”

DEAR ABBY: For the past year I have been with a man I love dearly. We live together and share our lives as independent young adults.

The problem is his mother.

She was cold and distant to him when he was a child, and her emotional abuse has continued into his adulthood. Holidays are a nightmare, visits a chore, and his phone calls with her often leave him in tears.

I wanted him to come with me to spend the holidays with my family, but she guilted him into spending them with her. I hate seeing him go through this, and I don’t know what I can do about it. I think she is a toxic influence and he needs to cut her out of his life altogether. Advice?

— PROTECTING MY GUY DEAR PROTECTING: What you think about his mother isn’t as important as what your boyfriend does. From your description,

their relationship is unhealthy.

My advice is to encourage your boyfriend to discuss this with a licensed mental health professional. If he does, it may give him the incentive he needs to distance himself from her.

P.S. When the next family holidays come around, by all means invite him to spend them with your family. That way he will have a chance to see how a normal family functions.

DEAR ABBY: When my in-laws come for dinner, they ask what they can bring. I always say “absolutely nothing,” but they bring dessert or a bottle of wine, and then take the uneaten dessert or uncorked bottles of wine home with them. What’s the rule of etiquette when someone brings items to a party?

— WONDERING IN FLORIDA DEAR WONDERING: When guests bring something to their hostess -- a bottle of wine or dessert -- it is considered a gift. For guests to commandeer the leftovers without them having been offered is poor manners.

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). An African proverb says, “He who is carried on another’s back does not appreciate how far off the town is.” That’s why you only carry those who truly need the lift.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You wonder sometimes whether you are making a choice or the choice is making you. This is the dilemma of the day, and your mindfulness of it will profoundly affect the future.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Do not proceed under the supposition that it’s supposed to be a good time. Is family involved?

Weird friends? Difficult co-workers? Expect that it’s going to be a problem that’s just the right size for you to solve brilliantly.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you put the effort into being extremely clean, tidy and organized, you will also reap the benefit of this. You’ll be respected and well thought of. You’ll be chosen for something important.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When life teeters on the edge of boring,

surprise chaos will liven things up. Whew! That was close. It will take extra effort to set things straight again, but you’ll be laughing the whole time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You are favored for the win in whatever games and battles you take on. Before you agree to the fight, make sure the win is worth fighting for. Make sure it’s something that would benefit you in the long run. Think it through.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The good thing about getting more money than you were expecting (a rare and wonderful cosmic gift of the day) is that it not only gives you more options, but it also gives you more hope.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You don’t practice childish ways, because you are past that age.

As for your colleagues, you’ll have to set an example and hope that they will follow. The day will bring a minor intervention.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Animals puff up when they

are threatened. Fur or feathers stand on end; fish take in more air to appear bigger; people do the same thing. When you see this reaction, ask: What is this person afraid of?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Partnerships are either a pain or an adventure. There is no in-between today, so don’t expect things to coast along.

Tonight, open up your mind and heart, and something unexpected will happen.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

You want to present something different to your people, but before you do, it’s good to adjust your expectations of their reactions. Some like change; some don’t. Everyone will need time to process the information.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Stick with the funny people.

Laughter not only heals; it massages your insides. That’s why the silliness and comedy you pursue (even when you are supposed to be working) are worthy endeavors.

Jobs monitor The Labor Department reports its latest monthly hiring tally today.

Economists predict that nonfarm employers added 240,000 jobs last month, down from 257,000 in January and the third monthly decline in a row. U.S. job growth has been encouraging, helping to drive down the unemployment rate to 5.7 percent. Even so, wage growth has remained weak.

Visa lands Costco The change wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be made until next year, but Visa scored a notable win this week.

After only accepting American Express for the last 16 years, Costco is changing to Visa and the retailer will use Citigroup as its exclusive provider of co-branded credit cards. The switch will take place starting April 1, 2016, when Visa will become the only credit card shoppers can use at Costco.

Total spending at Costco on American Express cards totaled $81.8 billion last year, according to a report by analyst Thomas McCrohan of $280

Visa (V)

Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s close $274.13

Stern Agee. He estimates that amount is growing by 5 percent annually. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still more to be learned about the deal, so McCrohan believes it is too early to adjust his estimates.

Even so, he believes a reasonable estimate of the total revenue contribution to be approximately $76 million. That could translate into additional earnings of 6 cents per share in fiscal 2017.

In the interim, the majority of analysts covering Visa give it a â&#x20AC;&#x153;buyâ&#x20AC;? rating. Their average target price is $294.68, reflecting a potential 7.5 percent rise from Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s close.

After vaulting in December to the highest level in two years, the U.S. trade gap is expected to be down for January.

Decemberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trade deficit increased to $46.6 billion as Americans bought a record amount of imports. That's a potentially worrisome development, because a larger U.S. trade gap can weigh down the nation's economic growth. The Commerce Department delivers its January trade gap data today.

NASHVILLE, Tenn.

— James Siakam told his teammates where he would hit the first 3-pointer of his career before the final home game of his Vanderbilt career.

Then he went out and did just that.

Siakam finished with 12 points and seven rebounds, and freshman Riley LaChance scored 15 points as Vanderbilt beat Mississippi State 66-56 Wednesday night for the Commodores’ fourth straight victory.

“I didn’t want him to be the first guy to go through our program and not make a jump shot for his entire career,” Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallings said with a smile.

It was a perfect end to a final night for Siakam, the Cameroon native whose family couldn’t make the game because of bad weather. So

his teammates joined him in walking out in the pregame ceremony. He hit his first 3 on his sixth career attempt from the top of the key late in the first half.

“I told these guys exactly where I was going to hit it from, and that’s what happened,” Siakam said.

The Commodores (18-12, 8-9 Southeastern Conference) now are 7-2 since ending January on a seven-game skid, and they did it yet again with great 3-point shooting and another second-half comeback.

Wade Baldwin IV and Damian Jones each added 11 points. Jones scored six straight late when the Bulldogs got within two.

Mississippi State (1218, 5-12) now has lost five straight. Craig Sword scored 20 points for the Bulldogs, and Gavin Ware had 12.

Coach Rick Ray blamed their

nine turnovers in the second half.

“We took away our own opportunities to score there by not taking care of the basketball,” Ray said. “It’s the same old bugaboo.”

Vanderbilt had trailed by 11 at halftime of its last two games. Against Mississippi State, the Commodores were only down 36-32 at intermission, and they took control opening the second half with a 14-4 run including back-toback 3s from Matthew Fisher-Davis and LaChance. They never trailed again.

When Baldwin scored on a layup, Vanderbilt had a 4640 edge with 16:09 left.

The Commodores forced Mississippi State into a handful of turnovers but couldn’t build on their lead missing seven straight. Demetrius Houston ended Mississippi State’s own drought where the Bulldogs hit only one of

their first six shots in the half with a layup with 11:19 left, then finally Shelton Mitchell drove the lane for a jumper at 8:56 ending Vandy’s drought for a 48-42 lead.

After Sword’s layup with 4:57 left, Jones hit a jumper for a 58-54 lead and the Bulldogs couldn’t get any closer the rest of the way.

Both teams shot 57.1 percent from the floor in the first half (12 of 21) and each hit six 3-pointers with the Bulldogs taking a 36-32 lead into halftime thanks to an edge at the free-throw line. Sword hit his first three shots, all from beyond the arc, in helping Mississippi State lead by as much as 11. But the Commodores used an 8-0 run to get close by intermission.

QBs, coaches dominate spring stories

BY RALPH D. RUSSO AP College Football Writer

In college football, spring comes early. Or at least spring practice comes early.

Practice has already started for many teams around the country and will ramp up just about everywhere else throughout March.

Spring story lines tend to revolve around quarterbacks, coaches and coordinators. Most quarterback competitions won’t get settled until August. New coaches and coordinators will install their systems, but how much progress are they actually making? Who knows?

The intrasquad games and scrimmages that wrap up spring practice will give fans a glimpse of what they have to look forward to (or brace for) come September.

So while acknowledging that spring football often provides few definitive answers, a look at some of the most interesting story lines from around the nation.

Quarterback competitions You might have heard that national champion Ohio State has a lot of good quarterbacks. Well, most of them aren’t going to be fully healthy for spring ball. Twotime Big Ten player of the

year Braxton Miller is still recovering from shoulder surgery. Last year’s All-Big Ten quarterback, J.T. Barrett, is still on the mend from a broken ankle. So Cardale Jones, who led the Buckeyes to the Big Ten and national championships in three starts, should get a lot of snaps.

The bigger question for the Buckeyes will be who sticks around after spring. Miller has graduated and can transfer without restrictions.

Other intriguing quarterbacks battles: — Notre Dame: Mistakeprone Everett Golson will try to win the starting job back from Malik Zaire. And if Golson doesn’t, will he take the graduate transfer route?

— Florida State: There is no clear replacement for Jameis Winston. Last season’s backup, Sean Maguire, is the only quarterback on the roster with any experience.

— Baylor: Stud freshman Jarrett Stidham will try to jump past next-in-line junior Seth Russell. Coach Art Briles has had a lot of success plugging in the experienced player.

— LSU: Highly touted Brandon Harris will get another shot to take the starting job away from uninspir-

ing incumbent Anthony Jennings. Tigers fans might want to keep an eye on how things play out with Golson and Miller.

— Oklahoma: That Sugar Bowl victory against Alabama seems like a long time ago for Trevor Knight, who followed up his breakout postseason performance with a mediocre 2014. Texas Tech transfer Baker Mayfield will provide competition, along with redshirt freshman Cody Thomas.

New coaches Michigan’s first spring under Jim Harbaugh started in February. What should expectations be for the Wolverines? Well, when Harbaugh comes to town the team tends to get better quickly and the Wolverines, despite missing the postseason last season, do have some talent.

Two things to watch: A) Can Harbaugh tap into whatever it was that made quarterback Shane Morris a highly touted recruit? B) How large will the crowd be at the Big House on April 4 for the spring game?

The faithful in Ann Arbor, Michigan, have not been this excited for a season since before the failed Rich Rodriguez experiment.

There hasn’t been quite

the same buzz coming out of Gainesville, Florida, where Jim McElwain is putting his stamp on the Gators. The inability to put a productive offense on the field cost Will Muschamp his job at Florida. The spring game will give Gators fans a taste of what McElwain has up his sleeve and which quarterback — sophomore Treon Harris or freshman Will Grier — is the front-runner to run the show.

In Nebraska, Huskers fans seem to be embracing Mike Riley, who brings an experienced coaching staff and refreshingly friendly personality to Lincoln. Two major stars need to be replaced.

Running back Imani Cross gets first crack at the tailback job vacated by Ameer Abdullah’s departure. Defensive end Randy Gregory will be even more difficult to replace. Maybe redshirt freshman Stoltenberg can help fill the void.

Other new coaches to track: — Wisconsin: Paul Chryst comes home to take over the Badgers.

— Pittsburgh: Fiery former defensive coordinator Please see SPRING | 11A

Manning returning for his 18th season

BY ARNIE STAPLETON AP Pro Football Writer

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — If the Denver Broncos’ 2015 season goes the way he hopes, Peyton Manning will earn back every penny of the $4 million pay cut he took Thursday.

No. 18 made his return for an 18th NFL season official by passing his physical a day after agreeing to a revised contract that calls for him to make $15 million this season.

The new deal he signed after getting a clean bill of health includes incentives of $2 million each for winning the AFC

title and the Super Bowl.

“Well, we’re excited it’s over and glad we can move on and glad Peyton’s going to be a part of this team and hopefully win a championship next year,” general manager John Elway told the team’s website.

“I think this time of the offseason is always tough for everybody. And it’s a tough part of the business but it’s the time of year that we’ve got to put the best football team together that we possibly can.”

Manning, who left the team’s headquarters Thursday without speaking to the media, was non-committal

about returning after the Broncos’ playoff loss to the Indianapolis Colts. But he determined he still had the health and hunger to keep playing at age 39 for new coach Gary Kubiak.

Elway asked Manning to take a pay cut and it took nearly a month to hash out the new deal reached Wednesday that was contingent on Manning passing his annual physical.

Every year, the Broncos medical staff checks on Manning’s surgically repaired neck to make sure there’s not any degeneration in the discs above and below the ones that were

fused in 2011.

Manning, whose contract still calls for him to make $19 million in 2016 should he decide to play into his 40s, will return to Denver for the start of offseason workouts on April 13.

Manning had a terrific first half of last season but his play slipped dramatically over the second half, when he was hampered by a nagging thigh injury that affected his accuracy.

Pro Bowl running back C.J. Anderson said he expects to Please see MANNING | 11A

No criminal charge for NASCAR’s Kurt Busch

BY RANDALL CHASE Associated Press

DOVER, Del. — NASCAR driver Kurt Busch will not face criminal charges over claims by his ex-girlfriend that he smashed her head into a bedroom wall and choked her, Delaware prosecutors said Thursday.

The decision by the state attorney general’s office ends the criminal investigation of Busch, known in NASCAR circles as “The Outlaw,” over allegations by Patricia Driscoll, whom Busch’s attorneys portrayed as a scorned woman who tried to destroy Busch’s career after he ended

their relationship.

State prosecutors said there was not enough evidence to bring criminal charges.

“After a thorough consideration of all of the available information about the case, it is determined that the admissible evidence and available witnesses would likely be insufficient to meet the burden of establishing beyond a reasonable doubt that Mr. Busch committed a crime during the September 26th incident,” the attorney general’s office said in a prepared statement.

A spokesman for the Dover Police Department, which investigated the incident and

gave its findings to the attorney general’s office, said the department respects the decision and has no further comment.

In a prepared statement, Busch thanked prosecutors for carefully considering the evidence and his supporters for standing by him “throughout this nightmare.”

“As I have said from the beginning, I did not commit domestic abuse,” Busch said.

“I look forward to being back in racing as soon as possible and moving on with my life.”

Driscoll said in a prepared statement she was disappointed that “full justice” was

not served. Driscoll, who had made the rounds of television shows after being granted a no-contact order, also suggested media coverage of the case was marked by “distortions” and “sensationalism.”

She offered no specifics.

Mark Dycio, an attorney for Driscoll, suggested the decision not to bring charges may have been based not on law, but on Delaware prosecutors’ desire to avoid “a media circus.” “(I)t seems impossible that the attorney general’s office made this decision on burden Please see BUSCH | 11A

Fixing the D With offenses flourishing, quality defensive coordinators were hot commodities this offseason.

The two hires that drew the most attention were in the Southeastern Conference.

Auburn’s Gus Malzahn brought in Muschamp, who, for all his problems at Florida, always had quality defenses.

Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin wanted Muschamp but ended up with a pretty good consolation prize in John Chavis, the former LSU and Tennessee defensive coordinator.

Points are rarely a problem for Sumlin and Malzahn’s teams so fans of the Aggies and Tigers will be happy to see boring spring games dominated by their new-look defenses.

Other new defensive coordinators: — UCLA: Bruins coach Jim Mora reached across the country to hire Tom Bradley to run his defense.

Bradley, the longtime Penn State assistant, spent last season with West Virginia.

— Colorado: Former USF coach Jim Leavitt returns to the college game, given the task of fixing the worst defense in the Pac-12.

see more of the QB who appeared headed for a sixth MVP honor than the one who struggled down the stretch.

“If he said he’s mentally and physically ready to play that doesn’t mean it’s at a sub-par level. It means it’s at a high level,” Anderson said.

The $4 million savings won’t drastically change Denver’s free agency plans. It gives Elway about $18.6 million to work with, but much of that will go to his own restricted free agents and a large draft class.

It does, however, help the Broncos as they pay out $4 million in bonuses and put another $36.5 million into escrow over the next week because of guarantees in the contracts of Manning, Ryan Clady, Aqib Talib, DeMarcus Ware and T.J. Ward.

Kubiak said he “had a good visit” with Manning on Thursday and “I know he’s as excited as anyone” to get started on the hybrid offense the coaches have been constructing for a month.

“We have a big challenge ahead of us, meshing a couple of systems.

That’s something we needed to get a head-start on and we’ve done that,” Kubiak said.

Kubiak has designed mainly West Coast offenses throughout his career that often require the quarterback to line up under center and roll out.

Mobility has never been Manning’s calling card;

Last year: Brad Keselowski surged ahead on the final lap when Dale Earnhardt Jr. ran out of fuel. Keselowski also won the Xfinity race for his first weekend sweep.

Last week: Jimmie Johnson won at Atlanta Motor Speedway, pulling away after a restart with 13 laps to go for his 71st career victory. Kevin Harvick was second.

Fast facts: The race is the third of the year. Joey Logano won the seasonopening Daytona 500. ... Johnson has a record four victories in Las Vegas. ...

he’s been most comfortable making quick throws out of the shotgun in recent years.

Elway said Kubiak’s offense reminds him of the system he ran during the final, Super Bowl-winning years of his career, when Kubiak was his offensive coordinator.

“Peyton can fit into this offense very easily,” Elway said. “It’s very dependent on balance. Peyton won’t have to throw the ball 50 or 55 times.

That gets more helpful, the older you get.”

Manning is all in. Recently, he remarked, “Aside maybe from Tubby Raymond’s Delaware Blue Hen Wing-T offense, I feel pretty comfortable playing in any offense.”

Manning is 179-77 in the regular season but just 11-13 in the postseason.

His nine one-and-out playoff performances are about the only blot on a career that features an unprecedented five MVP honors but half as many rings as brother Eli and three fewer than Tom Brady, this generation’s other premiere passer.

Manning owns most of the significant QB records and is 2,148 yards shy of breaking Brett Favre’s career yardage record of 71,838. He’s also nine victories short of breaking Favre’s record of 186 career wins.

Notes: The Broncos signed long snapper Aaron Brewer to a four-year deal Thursday. Brewer is the first of Denver’s five restricted free agents to

Hardy is eligible to sign free agent contract

BY STEVE REED AP Sports Writer

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Panthers defensive end and soon-to-be free agent Greg Hardy will be allowed to sign a new contract even if he remains on the commissioner’s exempt list.

League spokesman Greg Aiello said Thursday in an email to The Associated Press, “There’s nothing to prevent a player on the

Exempt list without a contract from signing a new one.”

NFL free agency begins Tuesday.

However, Hardy’s playing status remains in limbo. He isn’t allowed to actually play until removed from the exempt list, which could prevent teams from going after him in free agency.

Hardy was scheduled to meet with NFL officials

Wednesday in New York to discuss his domestic violence case, but no resolution has been announced.

He faces a possible suspension from the league even though his conviction on two counts of domestic violence was dismissed Feb. 9 following a successful appeal.

The NFL has said it is investigating Hardy’s case.

The league unsuccessfully petitioned courts in

North Carolina to have evidence from Hardy’s first trial unsealed. Without that evidence, it may be difficult for the league to suspend him.

Hardy made $13.1 million last season as Carolina’s franchise player, but only played in one game.

Hardy is not expected to re-sign with Carolina and could become one of the hottest commodities on the free agent market.

has missed the first two races of the season. NASCAR officials said Monday that he has agreed to follow their recommended guidelines to be eligible for eventual reinstatement.

NASCAR spokesman David Higdon said Thursday that Busch is actively participating in the reinstatement program. He said Busch’s eligibility will be governed by that program, but “the elimination of the possibility of criminal charges certainly removes a significant impediment to his reinstatement.”

Jim Liguori, an attorney for Busch, said prosecutors were right not to bring charges against him.

“She absolutely tried to destroy him in the press ...,” Liguori said of Driscoll. “But the truth wins out, and the truth is its own defense.”

Driscoll said Busch assaulted her in Septem-

ber after she drove from her Maryland home to check on him after receiving a series of disturbing texts. Driscoll said Busch grabbed her by the face and neck and slammed her head against a wall three times. She did not file charges until early November, fearing the incident might affect an ongoing child custody battle with her ex-husband in Maryland.

Driscoll’s request for a no-contact order was the subject of four days of hearings in December and January. During the Family Court hearing, Busch and others testified that Driscoll had made farfetched claims of being a covert operative for the federal government and a trained assassin.

Despite granting the no-contact order, a Family Court commissioner said Driscoll had presented false testimony that conflicted with that of a chaplain who saw

her immediately after the incident and said he saw no marks or bruises on her. The judge nevertheless said he didn’t believe Driscoll’s false testimony amounted to perjury or intentional falsehood.

The judge also concluded that Busch did not appear to be a prototypical batterer who uses violence to subjugate or control, but that the incident was most likely a “situational” event in which Busch could not cope or control his tendency to act out violently in response to stress and frustration, causing him to “snap.”

Busch’s attorneys have asked the Family Court commissioner to re-open the hearing so they can present testimony from three acquaintances of Driscoll who they say were previously reluctant to get involved but are now willing to contradict statements Driscoll has made about her relationship with Busch.

BUSCH CONTINUED FROM 10A

of proof grounds,” Dycio said in a prepared statement. “It would be unfortunate, and a terrible precedent for victims of abuse, if the prospect of inviting a media circus fueled by Mr. Busch’s wealth, notoriety, and hostile PR team in any way swayed this decision.”

The attorney general’s office declined to comment on Dycio’s statement.

NASCAR officials indefinitely suspended Busch last month after a Delaware Family Court commissioner granted Driscoll a “protection from abuse”, or no-contact, order, saying the former champion more than likely choked and beat her inside his motorhome at Dover International Speedway last fall.

Busch lost two rounds of appeals for reinstatement before the seasonopening Daytona 500 and

bed sheet and they would stop “hollering.” And she would actually do that!

I never understood how she thought the bird in the woods could know what she was doing with the sheet on her bed.

When one of my brothers had chickenpox, he sent word to our older neighbor to tell him what he could do for the itching. She said for him to go to the chicken house after the chickens had gone to roost and let the chickens fly over him.

He had been serious in his quest to get relief and he found no humor whatsoever in the older lady’s reply!

You can probably think of a lot more “remedies” you’ve heard and used through the years – ones that really worked. One that was popular in my family when I was growing up was “coal oil” – anytime we got cut or wounded in any way, Mama or Daddy would get the coal oil lamp and saturate the area with oil from the lamp wick.

The wound would not get sore, it didn’t get infected, and it would soon be healed. … So while the weather is cold and you’re wishing for spring temperatures, just relax and smile, maybe reminiscing on “cures” common to your family.

And please don’t try to render fat from a skunk unless you are much more educated in its anatomy than most of us southern folks!

Our greatest assets for the future are our today’s youth. We, as adults, have the responsibility to nurture and train our youth in values, morals, integrity, responsibility, ethics and optimism.

There is a Chinese Proverb that goes like this; “All the flowers of all the tomorrow’s are in the seeds of today.”

I am a product of the sixties and the hippie movement.

I saw firsth a n d when the y o u t h Gary of the Andrews c o u n t r y starting Devotionals rebelling against all authority and renouncing all they were ever taught. If it feels good do it! That was the saying of the day and most of the sixties youth participated in it.

Probably some of the problems we are experiencing today are because of the training the youth of the sixties have given their own teenagers of today. Times have changed. We as parents of today may have waited too late to realize that we don’t have the answer to every problem and that just possibly our parents were smarter that we thought.

A lot of problems in society today are because of our low morals, unethical values, lack of discipline, and no desire for what the future holds. Maybe our parents didn’t care enough to discipline us in the ways we needed it

Remember what King Solomon told us in Proverbs 13:24; “He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is careful to discipline him.”

Now that we are parents and the adults trying to maintain a trouble free environment for our children, we wish that our younger years could have been more of listening and learning instead of rebelling and doing what felt good.

For me, I am an optimist. I don’t feel it is too late to pave a good road for a brighter future for the young people of America and the world.

We need to bring our morals and ethics up to standard and then pass on to our children the idea of doing things right the first time. We need to act and talk positive.

Let’s be more energetic about the future and teach them the values of what life should be about.

More optimism and good positive feedback is what our youth need.

They need to feel good about themselves and the road they are traveling on. They need to

have sense of direction and a destination that will provide them a safe comfort zone when they have achieved it. Let’s teach them the difference between right and wrong!

Even though we can’t correct the mistakes we have made in our past we can help someone younger than we are from making the same mistakes. It is up to us as to what the future holds for America and the entire world. The seeds that we are planting today determine how pretty and bright the flowers of tomorrow are going to be!

Prayer: Thank you Father for all you have allowed me to have. Help me seek your face in all that I do for without you I am nothing. Help me to be a good example for our youth today and to teach them about you and your Saving Grace.

Amen.
