The men charged in Corinth’s two recent murder cases appeared in municipal court Thursday afternoon. Sirdon Capanion Greer, 28, charged with two counts of first degree murder and one count of arson, waived his right to a preliminary hear-
ing, meaning the case can proceed to trial. He continues to be held at the county jail on a bond of $1.2 million. He is charged in the death of James Copeland, 67, and his brother, Jerry Copeland, 64, who were shot in the head and their home at 912 Second Street burned on Feb. 13. In the case of Jerry D. Mill-
er, 59, who is charged with murder and felony malicious mischief in the stabbing death of Greg Owen Scott, 43, Municipal Judge John Ross Jr. found probable cause that Miller committed the crimes, meaning the case will proceed. Capt. Ralph Dance of the Please see MURDER | 2A
CHS sophomore honored by B&G Club BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
The Boys & Girls Club of Northeast Mississippi has taught a Corinth High School sophomore to be something in life. Cortez Spence is taking full advantage of the lesson. The 15-year-old recently was named runner-up in the Boys & Girls Club State Youth of the Year competition in Jackson. “When we left Jackson, everyone knew his name,” said Corinth Club Unit Director Christy Grice. “He was so prepared and wasn’t intimidated at all.” A member of the Corinth Warrior band, Spence earned a $1,000 scholarship from The Alliance. He also will be allowed to compete in the competition again next year. “Cortez will be the person to beat next year,” said Grice. “Everyone was so impressed with how young he was.” Gulf Coast’s Dominique Howard, already in college, was chosen as Mississippi’s 2014 Youth of the Year. “My goal is to get him ready to win the award next year,”

4 booked for drug crimes BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Alcorn Narcotics Unit placed drug charges against four in the last couple of days. On Wednesday, the unit arrested Paul Jeffery Glasgow, 56, of County Road 333, Corinth, and charged him with transfer of a controlled substance within 1,500 feet of a church. Narcotics Officer Darrell Hopkins said the arrest happened as Glasgow left a business in downtown Corinth. Officers conducting surveillance observed him attempting to sell methamphetamine, Hopkins said. As officers approached Glasgow, Hopkins said the man threw 13 bags of meth with a
sentenced up to 30 days of confinement in theater. Davis was in charge of 120 inmates at the facility where all prisoners must follow Army standards for conduct and appearance, regardless of their current unit or service affiliation. Typical offenses committed by TFCF inmates include theft, simple assault, sexual assault and child pornography possession. TFCF are charged with safely escorting inmates with long term prison sentences to U.S. facilities. For his achievements and
leadership, Davis received several awards including the Meritorious Service Medal. The 1980 graduate of Burnsville High School has served in the Army for 28 years. Davis served in many different roles as commander of the TFCF, also working in Host Nations Relations and International Partnerships. In his compactly, Davis was instrumental in building rapport with the Kuwaiti Supreme Court Judges and The Chief Justice of Kiwaiti Supreme Court. Throughout his career, Davis

“Someone came to a meeting talking about this youth mud run called Delta Down and Dirty held in Cleveland,” she said. “We all really liked the idea and decided to give it a try here.” Richardson contacted the personnel over the Cleveland event for some pointers. “We took their event and have made it our own with their permission,” Richardson added.

The event is a fundraiser for the PTO to help buy healthy snacks for CES students. “We had a grant that helped start the healthy snack program, but it recently ran out,” she said. “We had to do something to help offset some of the cost of continuing this great program.” The healthy snack program provides one healthy snack like cheese and crackers, apple slices or graham cracker gold fish to all 1,200 students each day during the school year.
Maurices is giving back. The hometown specialty clothing store is holding a prescription eye glass drive with donations to benefit Corinth Eye Clinic and overseas mission endeavors. “While we participate in a number of Maurices-sponsored benefits throughout the year, we are especially proud when we have the opportunity to support the causes right here at home,” said Store Manager A.J. Gipson. The prescription eye glass drive begins on Mar. 16 and continues through Mar. 29. Customers are encouraged to drop off their prescription glasses at any time during store hours, which are Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m., Monday – Wednesday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Thursday – Saturday from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. For each donation, customers will receive a 20 percent off coupon which can be used toward the purchase of any one regular-priced item. Maurices, located at 720 South Cass St. in the South Gate Shopping Center, offers clothing and accessories for fashionsavvy young women in sizes one to 24. “This drive is just one way we can express how grateful we are to be a part of this community,” said Gipson. “We invite customers to be part of this effort and look forward to giving them a special deal on an item from Maurices in return.” The glasses acquired through donations will be cleaned and distributed to those who cannot afford them on their own.

TVA builds wall around ash The Associated Press
KINGSTON, Tenn. — The Tennessee Valley Authority has completed a 12-mile, four-foot-wide underground retaining wall surrounding 240 acres of toxic coal ash more than five years after a catastrophic spill in eastern Tennessee. TVA officials told The Tennessean the new system used more than 200,000 tons of cement and other materials and is earthquake resistant. It
is expected to be capped off by the end of the year, where they hope to plant grass. In December 2008, a dike at TVA’s Kingston Fossil Plant failed, sending sent 5.4 million cubic yards of coal ash into the Emory and Clinch rivers, polluting the water, destroying three homes and damaging dozens of other homes. Cleanup has cost more than $1 billion. Up to an additional $1
billion could be spent to finish the cleanup there and to better secure other coal ash storage sites in Tennessee. Part of what made cleanup so difficult was a mixing of the coal ash with radioactive pollution from the Oak Ridge nuclear reservation, making it impossible to remove. The new statewide coal ash security measures are expected to be complete by December 2022.

knife that pierced his liver on Feb. 27. Dance testified that this followed a call of a vehicle burglary at a nearby residence. Officers arrived and heard screams coming from the 302 Nelson residence, where they found Scott on the floor with a stab wound. Officers went to Miller’s neighboring residence where he came out and said, “I confess. I did it,� said Dance. He told police where the bloody weapon could be found — under a bed in his home. Miller apparently threw large rocks at two vehicles belonging to two women who live at another nearby residence, causing damage to a Mercedes
and a Jeep. Scott apparently confronted him while this occurred. Dance said there was evidence that the two men had a scuffle, as Miller had blood on his ear and his glasses were in the street. No one witnessed the confrontation. Scott’s wife was tending to their child and did not know that he had gone outside until he returned and she heard him yell, “The pervert has stabbed me.� The judge did not allow questioning about why Miller was described as a “pervert.� Scott died at Magnolia Regional Health Center. Miller is being held with bond set at $510,000.

Twentieth Century Study Club holds meeting
Today in history Today is Friday, March 7, the 66th day of 2014. There are 299 days left in the year. Â
Today’s Highlight in History: On March 7, 1994, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc., unanimously ruled that a parody that pokes fun at an original work can be considered “fair useâ€? that doesn’t require permission from the copyright holder. (The ruling concerned a parody of the Roy Orbison song “Oh, Pretty Womanâ€? by the rap group 2 Live Crew.) Â
On this date: In 1793, during the French Revolutionary Wars, France declared war on Spain. In 1850, in a threehour speech to the U.S. Senate, Daniel Webster of Massachusetts endorsed the Compromise of 1850 as a means of preserving the Union. In 1876, Alexander Graham Bell received a patent for his telephone. In 1926, the first successful trans-Atlantic radio-telephone conversations took place between New York and London. In 1936, Adolf Hitler ordered his troops to march into the Rhineland, thereby breaking the Treaty of Versailles and the Locarno Pact. In 1945, during World War II, U.S. forces crossed the Rhine River at Remagen, Germany, using the damaged but still usable Ludendorff Bridge. In 1965, a march by civil rights demonstrators was violently broken up at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Ala., by state troopers and a sheriff’s posse in what came to be known as “Bloody Sunday.� In 1975, the U.S. Senate revised its filibuster rule, allowing 60 senators to limit debate in most cases, instead of the previously required two-thirds of senators present. In 1994, the U.S. Navy issued its first permanent orders assigning women to regular duty on a combat ship — in this case, the USS Eisenhower.
The Feb. 18th meeting of the Twentieth Century Study Club was held at the home of Mrs. Robert Foster. The 12 members welcomed Mrs. Pat Trainum, local author, as guest speaker for the day. Mrs. Percy Boggan presided and turned the program over to Mrs. Foster, who introduced Mrs. Trainum. “Shadows of the Past�,
her first novel, has just come out published by Revell. She started writing 34 years ago and has had several articles featured in Women’s World. Mrs. Trainum said her novels have come to her as a T.V. program running through her head. This novel went through 10 revisions and is the first in a series of three set in the fictitious town of
Logan Point, Miss. It can be characterized as a romantic suspense story with spiritual overtones. Mrs. Trainum writes under her maiden name of Patricia Bradley. She has participated in four writer’s workshops and is scheduled to lead one in Collierville, Tenn. When working on a novel, she said she funnels all her energy to writ-
ing, working eight hours a day. She was open to questions during her talk. After this informative talk, Mrs. Boggan presided over the business meeting. Mrs. Bonnard Eaton read a note of thanks from Frances Dalton’s daughter, thanking club members for the donation to Corinth First Baptist Church in memory of her mother.
The minutes were approved as read. A vote was taken amending the by-laws of the club, raising the amount of memorials. This passed unanimously. Mrs. Boggan ended the meeting with a quote attributed to President Ronald Regan – “Never let what you can’t do keep you from doing what you can do.� After this, the meeting was adjourned.
State Senate passes criminal justice bill The Associated Press
JACKSON — The Mississippi Senate on Thursday advanced a bill that supporters say is designed to make the criminal justice system more efficient and less expensive. House Bill 585 is a centerpiece of Republican Gov. Phil Bryant’s legislative agenda for 2014. Only three senators voted against the latest version of the bill. Because the Senate made some changes, the bill returns to the House for more work in the next few weeks. Mississippi has the second-highest incarceration rate in the nation. Sen. Brice Wiggins, R-Pascagoula, said the proposed changes could reduce prison costs by $266 million, spread over 10 years. “The cost of corrections in Mississippi is continually going up,� Wiggins told his colleagues during a brief debate Thursday. A study group made up of judges, prosecutors and other attorneys spent several months in 2013 examining the state’s criminal justice system, including prisons. The group recommended the proposals that legislators are considering now. The bill says anyone convicted of a violent offense would be required to serve at least 50 percent of a sentence, and anyone convicted of a nonviolent offense would have to serve at least 25 percent. The bills would give judges more flexibility to give alternative sentences, such as ordering treatment for drug users. They would also, for the
first time in Mississippi law, specify which crimes are classified as violent, for sentencing purposes. They would strengthen requirements that victims be notified before an inmate is released from prison. The bill also proposes letting circuit judges establish courts to deal specifically with veterans who are charged with felonies. The bill says that veterans might have post-traumatic stress disorder, brain injuries or other problems related to their military service. A veterans’ court could deal with problems by offering treatment for alcohol dependency, for example. “These veterans’ treatment courts will provide a valuable service to the men and women who have served this country and want to get back on track,� Bryant said in a news release Thursday. “They, more than most, deserve this second chance.� Wiggins said the package of proposed changes has been endorsed by the Mississippi Bar Association, the state prosecutors’ association, the state Baptist association and the conservative American Legislative Exchange Council. Some senators expressed concern that the changes could save the state money but increase costs for sheriffs and other local government officials. Wiggins said local governments would be reimbursed for any additional expenses. Senators against the bill Thursday were Republicans Nickey Browning of Pontotoc, Josh Harkins of Flowood and Dean Kirby of Pearl.
Coming Back, Moving Forward Sammie Agnew, pastor of Mt. Zion Community Church in Guntown, makes a point during the panel discussion held by the Northeast Mississippi Community College Cultural Arts Committee during its “Coming Back, Moving Forward: The Challenges Before Us in Race Relations,� series of lectures on Thursday, Feb. 13. Joining Agnew on the panel were (from left) Corinth attorney and educator Joe Wallace, former Northeast English instructor and cultural arts committee member Norma Lambert, CREATE Foundation vice president of finance and administration Juanita Floyd and Northeast speech instructor Bill Stone, who served as moderator. In addition to the panel discussion, Northeast’s Cultural Arts Committee also held a roundtable discussion moderated by Dr. Jennifer Stollman from the University of Mississippi’s William Winter Institute on Racial Reconciliation about what the faculty, staff and students had learned from the presentations.

Corinth, Miss.
Hillary tough enough for Putin? We don’t know how Hillary Clinton would handle Vladimir Putin. But she may get the chance. Putin’s third term as president of Russia will not expire Roger until May 2018, and he has not out running for another Simon ruled six-year term after that. Clinton could be inauguColumnist rated as president in January 2017, should she choose to run and should she win. And by that time, given Putin’s in-your-face adventurism, the western border of Russia could be somewhere in Poland. And the eastern one in Alaska. What does Clinton think of Putin? We have a hint. When she was campaigning for president in 2008, she made fun of George W. Bush’s extraordinarily naive comment that upon meeting Putin for the first time, Bush said he “looked in his eyes and saw his soul.” “I could have told him, ‘He was a KGB agent. By definition, he doesn’t have a soul,’” Clinton said. But jokes such as that are easy to make when you are just a candidate. Clinton went on to lose the Democratic nomination to Barack Obama, and she became his first secretary of state. As I have written before, however, her term in that job produced no dazzling breakthroughs or stellar achievements, no solution to world conflicts. True, Clinton was not setting foreign policy. She was carrying out President Obama’s foreign policy. And if she was more cautious than bold, she was likely being cautious at the president’s insistence. But how would Clinton handle Putin if she really held the reins of power? Again, we have a joke -- probably the funniest and most controversial joke she ever told in public. At a chilly early-morning rally in Davenport, Iowa, during the kickoff of her presidential campaign in 2007, Clinton was asked by a voter what qualifications she had to handle tough leaders from countries such as Iran and North Korea. “What in my background equips me to deal with evil and bad men?” she said with a smile and then paused as the crowd erupted in laughter. I was there, and my own impression, as well as that of every person I interviewed after the event, was that Hillary was making a rather droll comment about Bill. It was funny and delivered with expert comic timing. A reporter asked Clinton about her joke and to explain what she had meant so there would be no confusion. Clinton responded that she was not joking at all, that she was merely repeating the question she had been asked. Reporters pressed on, however, and Clinton reversed course. Now, she said, she had been joking. “I thought I was funny,” Clinton said. “You know, you guys keep telling me to lighten up, be funny. I get a little funny, and now I’m being psychoanalyzed.” One reporter pressed on. “Some thought you were talking about the bad side of Bill,” the reporter said. “Oh, come on,” Clinton said. “I don’t think anyone there thought that.” Well, many there did think that, which is why the crowd at the event had roared with laughter. The reporters at the news conference seemed to realize they were now treading on very sensitive ground. So one reporter did a pivot. If Clinton had been talking about dealing with “evil and bad” world leaders, would voters think she was up to the job as a woman? And did she face a “higher threshold” to prove her toughness because she is a woman? “We don’t know,” Clinton replied. “A woman Democrat has never gotten the nomination. We will have to find out. I think I am prepared to hit the ground running.” In my next column, I will talk about conservative plans to make sure she never gets that chance in 2016. (Roger Simon is chief political columnist of politico.com, an award-winning journalist and a New York Times best selling author.)
Prayer for today Lord God, I beseech thee to give me the strength which endures. Grant that I may have the ceaseless content which is secured by choosing and continuing in the right way. From the wealth of each day renew my hope, and quiet my soul with the calm of thy peace. Amen.
A verse to share “And the Philistines were afraid, for they said, God is come into the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for there hath not been such a thing heretofore.” — 1 Samuel 4:7
Uprooting Obamacare with better ideas As a child, I was attracted to anything that dealt with medicine. Many stories featured Johns Hopkins Hospital, and eventually I was privileged to spend 36 years at Johns Hopkins working with brilliant and caring colleagues who dedicated their lives to the art and science of healing. After a storybook career that included thousands of operations and many sleepless nights, I looked forward to retirement, thinking it would be relaxing. However, life throws many curveballs, and sometimes the ordering of our steps is not of our own choosing. I now find myself deeply immersed in trying to heal the health care environment, because if you cure the organism and put it back into a sick environment, you really have not accomplished very much. Recently, I was giving a speech in Sikeston, Mo., where I had the opportunity to be reacquainted with a 21-year-old man named T.J. He likes to go fishing and play cards with his friends, and to a stranger, he sounds like a pretty regular 20-something. However, T.J. has lived anything but a regular life. At just 9 months of age, he was diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumor. His mother was told not to expect him to see his second birthday. This is news that no mother should have to hear. After 17 surgeries
-- seven of which I performed in a relatively short period of time -- T.J. was Ben finally out of Carson the woods. Through a Columnist combination of providence and the marvels of modern medicine, T.J. survived this ordeal, and it was quite an experience to get to see him and his dedicated family again. I share this story to help explain why I have decided to become chairman of the Save Our Healthcare Project, which was organized by a group called the American Legacy PAC. Our mission is to lead a national citizens’ effort to hold Washington accountable, re-center the health care debate around doctors and patients, and begin the process of replacing Obamacare with patient-centered reforms that will allow every American access to the best, most affordable care in the world. If you would like to join us, please visit SaveOurHealthcare.org. I believe a nationwide effort such as this is vital. As much as I have been privileged to treat people such as T.J., I am but one person -and both the problems and the solutions to our health care woes are bigger than any one person. As we move forward, we
will seek to underscore two points that have gotten lost in the daily back-andforth over broken websites, increased premiums and dropped coverage. First, the underlying and unfixable flaw of Obamacare is that it goes against all of the lessons of human history and puts its trust in a centralized bureaucracy. Second, repealing Obamacare is not an end in itself. Those of us who believe in the Constitution, free enterprise and individual freedom have an absolute responsibility to provide the country with a new and better direction. From my experience, I know that nothing is more personal than health care. After all, it’s about the health of the people we love and care about. Every step in the direction of centralization is a step away from personalization. I steadfastly believe that no centralized bureaucracy and no politician -- Republican or Democrat -- should ever get in the way of decisions best made by patients, families and doctors. While we have strong ties that bind us all together, we are a nation of individuals, endowed by our Creator with certain inalienable rights. Each of us has our own needs, and our elected officials must recognize that top-down cookie-cutter solutions simply will not work. Ultimately, they increase costs and decrease freedom of choice.
If such solutions will not work, we must offer ones that will. Every day that the American people are unaware of alternative ideas is a day that Obamacare’s roots grow deeper and more permanent. I fully expect that as we seek to reform major institutions, I will be attacked by those who disagree. Critics undoubtedly will try to pigeonhole this effort as just another attack on President Obama and his signature legislative achievement. However, this is about much more than Obamacare. It’s about helping to ensure that Americans of every background have the opportunity to live longer, happier and more independent lives with more freedom and more choice. The American people currently are witnessing the failure of centralized government to deliver affordable, quality health care, and there is no better time than this to consider better alternatives. This is a massive undertaking, and it will be tough. But when I look into the eyes of someone such as T.J. in Missouri, I know there are much tougher things to confront in this world. I also know that if we have courage, then there is hope for a better future. (Daily Corinthian columnist Ben S. Carson is professor emeritus of neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins University.)
Talking politics, sausage and baseball with ‘picky’ Sen. Polk STARKVILLE — Over a lifetime, I’ve seen a lot of ball games and eaten a lot of hot dogs and talked a lot of politics with friends old and new. As a young sportswriter, I was always thrilled about the fact that my fellow scribes and I got paid to go to the ball games. It seemed a fantastic proposition to me both then and now. But in later years, ball games also offered the opportunity as grand venues in which to engage in another well-loved hobby – talking politics. Only the Neshoba County Fair with horse races as the backdrop from cabin porches has ever seemed a finer place to follow a sporting event and mix in a political gossip. If someone was cooking something tasty on the grill at the same time, all the better. This weekend, I had a chance to watch an NCAA baseball game between the Mississippi State University Bulldogs and the Eastern Illinois University Panthers in one of the Diamond Classic Tournament games at Dudy

Noble Field on the MSU campus. It was as fine an afternoon for baseball as Sid Salter one could Columnist imagine. The game was competitive and exciting. While I’ve eaten a lot of ball game hot dogs, this was my very first time to watch a ball game while seated next to the guy whose company made the hot dog I was enjoying. To be accurate, this was not exactly a hot dog, but a smoked sausage dog with a little relish and a lot of mustard. Seated beside me at the game was state Sen. John Polk, R-Oak Grove, the chairman and retired CEO of Polk’s Meat Products – a Mississippi company employing more than 100 workers with 10 brands and a varied product line that includes multiple ham, sausage, salami and souse offerings. The company is Mississippi’s largest smoked meat processor and has developed a national
distribution chain. But while Polk is proud of the third-generation family business that his parents founded and that he built before “getting out of the way and letting my daughter grow the company,” Polk talked most about the lessons he’d learned in the state Senate after winning the District 44 seat in the 2011 election. “I didn’t get into politics because I needed a job,” Polk said bluntly, as he says most everything. “I looked around at the shape the state and the country were in and thought ‘maybe I can help make things better’.” Polk ran a campaign in which he talked about “making a payroll every week since 1974” in his business and also said that “my wife accuses me of being a little bit tight with money.” He promised District 44 voters that he’d be just as tight with their money in Jackson. The veteran businessman told me that there had been a learning curve of sorts since arriving at the state Senate. “In my business, change moved a lot faster

than it does in the Senate, but I’ve come to appreciate and respect every single member down these,” Polk said. “I still want to change the status quo, but I’ve learned a lot about really listening to where the other senators are coming from.” In a place where folks talk about the legislative process in terms of people “not liking to see how the sausage is made” in subcommittee and committee process, in the avalanche of pressure from lobbyists and special interests, and in the final analysis when some compromises actually prove necessary, Polk seems to shrug his shoulders and say “bring it on.” Seems this ardent University of Southern Mississippi alum is one senator who saw a lot of sausage made before he arrived at the Capitol and isn’t averse to getting elbow deep in it again when necessary in the legislative process.

Across The Nation Associated Press
Military assaults: No process change WASHINGTON — Bowing to the Pentagon, the Senate agreed after impassioned debate Thursday to leave the authority to prosecute rapes and other serious crimes with military commanders in a struggle that highlighted the growing role of women in Congress. The vote was 55-45 in favor of stripping commanders of that authority, but that was short of the 60 necessary to move ahead on the legislation sponsored by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand. It would have given the decision to take serious crimes to courts-martial to seasoned military trial lawyers, independent of the chain of command. The debate and vote was the culmination of a nearly yearlong campaign to curb sexual assault in the ranks, led by female senators who have questioned whether the military’s mostly male leadership understands differences between relatively minor sexual offenses and serious crimes that deserve swift and decisive justice. Â
2016 GOP nod: Hopefuls seek clout OXON HILL, Md. — Republicans vying for the GOP presidential nomination in 2016 auditioned Thursday before some of the nation’s most ardent conservative leaders, calling for the party to unite behind a clear agenda and draw contrasts with Democrats. The contestants ranged from Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, a tea party champion, to New Jer-
sey Gov. Chris Christie, a favorite of the GOP establishment. “If you want to lose elections, stand for nothing ...,â€? said Cruz, who referred as examples to the unsuccessful presidential bids of Bob Dole, John McCain and Mitt Romney. Â
Judge: Texas man can be tried as adult CONROE, Texas — In the years that followed the 1998 attack that horribly burned her then-8-year-old son, Colleen Middleton felt fear and frustration over the possibility that the person she believed was responsible would never be taken to trial. That fear and frustration was replaced by relief Thursday as a judge ruled that a Texas man accused of dousing the boy with gasoline and setting him on fire when he was a teenager can be tried as an adult for murder after the victim died from his burns 13 years later. Don Willburn Collins was 13 when authorities allege he attacked Robert Middleton on his eighth birthday near the younger boy’s home in Splendora, about 35 miles northeast of Houston. Middleton was burned across 99 percent of his body and endured years of physical therapy before he

died in 2011 from skin cancer blamed on his burns. Colleen Middleton said she is happy her son will finally get his day in court. Â

Blount dies in federal prison JACKSON — A Mississippi man convicted in the death of a Dutch cyclist has died in a federal prison hospital in North Carolina. Chris Burke, a spokesman for the U.S. Bureau of Prison, says Wendell G. Blount died Wednesday in the prison hospital in Butner, N.C. Burke says it appears Blount died of natural causes but an autopsy is pending. Blount’s death was first reported by WTVATV in Tupelo. Federal prosecutors say Blount was high on morphine when his vehicle struck and killed Esther Hageman, of Leiden, Netherlands, on the Natchez Trace Parkway. Hageman was a journalist for one of the Netherlands’ major newspapers, Trouw. Blount was convicted of manslaughter in 2010. He was serving a 10-year sentence. Â
New York inmates report ‘head shots’ NEW YORK — Nearly a third of Rikers Island inmates who said their visible injuries came at the hands of a correction officer last year had suffered a blow to the head, a tactic that is supposed to be a guard’s last resort because it is potentially fatal, according to an internal report obtained by The Associated Press. The report, acquired by the AP via a Freedom of Information request, also found that an average of three inmates a day were treated for visible injuries they claimed were caused by correction officers and 20 others each day suffered injuries primarily from violent encounters with other inmates. Inmate advocates said the report shows that not enough is being done to stop violence at the 12,000-inmate jail, by far the largest of New York City’s lockups.

Lafayette tries to avoid grave error Associated Press
OXFORD — The Lafayette County Planning Commission halted further development on a site located in Lafayette Springs due to graves found on the west side of the land. “We have stopped any more work where the graves have been found on the west side of the property and tabled it until the next meeting,” said T.J. Ray, president of the Lafayette County Planning Commission. “We gave the OK to still continue (development) on the east side.” The Lafayette County Board of Supervisors has approved the portion of the Welch Farms development project that does not involve the cemetery. The 141 acres of land located off of County Road 251 is owned by James “Woody” Welch and is being developed by Welch and his friend, Jack Macadoo, into 16 lots of mini farms. The residential lots will range anywhere from 3 to 16 acres apiece. However, the site located on the west side of CR 251 is also home to the Jones Family Cemetery, in which 11 people are buried, according to Lafayette County Historical and Genealogical Society cemetery records. Welch has offered to
and Welch see their plans to relocate and improve the cemetery as providing a service to the unincorporated community. “The cemetery was pretty atrocious when we got there,” Macadoo said. “It had been in disrepair for almost 100 years. We want to make it a landmark. We know there is a lot of history there and we see this as an opportunity to take something that is destroyed and make it something that residents can be proud of.” Macadoo said he welcomes any known family members of the deceased or anyone who knows the history of the site to come forward. Welch said he wants to take all the proper precautions when relocating the graves so that others may visit the site for years to come. “Whatever we do, we will do it in respect,” Welch said. “We will have a coroner instructing us on what to do. When I get through with (the project), it will be first class. All homes will have to go through architectural reviews. To tell you the truth, I might build a home for myself on the site where the graves were located. It’s a beautiful view.” Welch has submitted a petition to the Lafayette
move the grave stones, markers, artifacts and human remains to a cement container that would be located about 20 yards from the cemetery’s original site. Welch has also proposed that he will provide bronze markers for those buried in the cemetery whose markers have been destroyed or decayed. Some neighbors have expressed their concerns about the removal of the graves. “Everybody buried down there is someone’s child or brother or sister,” said Jim Gates, who lives near the cemetery. “It’s unholy. This is one of the last historical landmarks left here and to me it’s a historical place. A lot of people that live here are equally upset about it. It’s not just me.” Allen Sullivan, who lives about a mile from the site, has similar concerns about removing the graves. “He (Welch) is doing something that I don’t agree with at all,” Sullivan said. “He said that he cannot find any living relatives of those that have been buried, but it doesn’t matter if he can or can’t find them or not; it’s a cemetery and it’s not right. I don’t agree with it in any way, shape, form or fashion.” However, Macadoo
County Chancery Court to move the graves, but relocating a cemetery can’t be done easily in Mississippi, according to local and state officials. “It (the removal of graves) is not something that we recommend be done, but it can be done along with the proper legislation and procedures,” Deputy State Historic Preservation Officer Ken P’Pool said. Since the cemetery is a private family plot and was abandoned, it does not have a certificate from the state as a historical site and therefore cannot be protected by Lafayette County. However, disturbing graves can be considered a criminal act so chancery court officials may look at these laws when determining the validity of moving the human remains. Oxford-Lafayette Heritage Foundation’s Jim Pryor said that he has never dealt with any relocation of a graveyard. However, if the neighbors want to provide him with more information about the cemetery, he said he would see whether some sort of historic designation or certification for the graveyard could be obtained. No decisions have been made on certification at this time.
Bill would let Paul run for 2 offices at same time Associated Press
FRANKFORT, Ky. — U.S. Sen. Rand Paul faces a potential quandary as he weighs whether to run for president in 2016 or focus solely on re-election to his Senate seat. Legislation introduced Thursday in his home state would allow him to run for both. The measure would clarify that current Kentucky law, which prevents someone running for multiple offices, does not apply to federal elections, said Senate Majority Leader Damon Thayer. “He (Paul) is the impetus for it, but it could affect anyone in the federal delegation,” said Thayer, R-Georgetown, who in-
president. “He’s 100 percent committed to running for reelection to the Senate,” Paul spokesman Dan Bayens said. “Regardless of what other decisions he makes, he’ll be on the ballot for Senate in Kentucky.” Another Paul staff member said the senator believes he can legally run for two federal offices at the same time but wants to clear up any doubts with Thayer’s bill. “Federal law governs federal elections, and the Supreme Court has made it clear that states cannot impose additional qualifications beyond those in the Constitution,” said Doug Stafford, a Paul senior adviser. “We are
troduced the bill in the GOP-led state Senate. Thayer said he was approached by Paul’s staff about the legislation and later spoke with Kentucky’s freshman senator about it. Paul, a Republican who rose to the Senate as a tea party favorite, is seriously considering a run for the White House in 2016. The son of ex-U.S. Rep. and former presidential candidate Ron Paul has visited several early primary and caucus states to gauge support for his own possible presidential run. He also will be up for re-election to the Senate in 2016. Paul has said he has not made any decision about running for
not seeking to change the law, but rather to clarify that the Kentucky statute does not apply to federal elections. We thank Sen. Thayer for taking this step in clarifying this issue.” If the Republican-run state Senate passes the bill, it faces an uphill struggle in the Democratic-led state House. Republicans are making a strong push to take control of the state House in this year’s election. If they succeed in doing so, the bill’s chances would drastically improve in the 2015 legislative session, still giving Paul plenty of time to file for both races in 2016 if he chooses to do so.

Dear Annie: My wife and I have lost contact with our son. He is a recovering addict. As far as we know, he has maintained a job and, I hope, has been able to stay clean. He has moved to a city about four hours away with his new girlfriend, and I am sure she is keeping him in line. My wife is heartbroken. We maintained a room for him in our home until he was almost 30 years old. He was always close to his mother, and they would speak on a daily basis. Now, he doesn’t call or take our calls or emails, and never accepts cards or letters. He said he needed space when he left, and that was a year ago. My wife grieves as though he has passed, crying at night, wondering what happened to our son. What should I do to relieve the pain? Should we keep trying to contact him? We don’t understand how he can be so hurtful. — Tears in Vermont Dear Tears: We are so sorry that your son has chosen to cut off contact, but you cannot force him to stay in touch. Are you in touch with the girlfriend? Is she a reliable partner, or might she be abusive? Even so, he is an adult, and
Annie’s Mailbox you can only do so much without his cooperation. In the meantime, please consider counseling. You are grieving and worried, and you need to move forward so your son’s absence doesn’t become the focus of your daily life. It will not be easy. But we recommend that you keep sending your son emails and cards, just saying that you love him and that you will always be available should he decide to contact you. We hope he will. Soon. Dear Annie: My sister recently saw your column with the letter from “Mourning My Brother,” whose brother was estranged from his children when he suddenly died. She passed the column on to me. Since my divorce 10 years ago, I have been estranged from my two daughters. I have repeatedly attempted to restore communication with little success. We might have a short period of communication, followed by years of silence.
I recently tried again. This time I enclosed a copy of your column. I got a response from one of my daughters. The column made her realize that I truly did not understand the reasons why there has been no communication between us. That column opened her heart to explain all the years of sorrow and guilt she had and her feeling of not trusting me. Even though her remembrance of things is not the same as mine, she believes her feeling to be true. I acknowledged her feelings, apologized for causing her so much pain and sorrow, and asked that we live in the present. We cannot change the past, and to relive it only hardens our hearts. We have agreed to start sending emails to each other once a week. I am so excited that she is open to trying to start our healing process. I have grandchildren that I never knew I had. — Very Grateful Grandmother Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Today
Bump in hiring? Economists expect that U.S. employers stepped up their hiring last month. Employers added just 113,000 jobs in January. That followed a gain of only 75,000 jobs in December. Those figures are about half the monthly pace of the past two years and reflect, in part, the impact of harsh winter weather on hiring. The Labor Department reports February payroll figures today.

Has the death of the hardbound book been greatly exaggerated? That remains to be seen, but investors are starting to once again stand behind Barnes & Noble. Shares of the bookseller are up 39.7 percent this year. That’s compared with a 1.6 percent rise in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index. Even so, the stock is still rebounding from a steep slump and remains 13.5 percent below its 52-week high set in May. There are signs that the company’s efforts to limit losses from its Nook e-reader unit are taking hold. In the quarter ended Jan. 25, losses from the Nook decreased by 67 percent, to $62 million from $190 million, as compared with the year ago period, which included inventory-related charges. Financial analysts remain split on the stock, which carries an average rating of “hold.” David Schick of Stifel maintains a “hold” rating, but wrote in a recent report: “We think the industry trends are not as bad as the prejudice assumes. Book sales are weak but in a slow, manageable decline.” Source: FactSet

Eye on consumers
Measuring joblessness
The Federal Reserve issues a report today on how much credit Americans took on in January. Consumers increased their borrowing in December by the largest amount in 10 months as demand for auto, student and credit card debt rose sharply. The big increase pushed total borrowing to $3.1 trillion, a record. Economists anticipate consumers’ appetite for debt eased in January.
Did more Americans find work last month? Find out today, when the government releases the nation’s unemployment rate for February. Economists forecast that the rate was unchanged last month from 6.6 percent in January, when U.S. employers added jobs at about half the rate of each month last year.

Woman seeks way to shed the shell of her former self DEAR ABBY: As a child, I was sexually, physically and mentally abused. As an adult, I suffered several miscarriages and two of my children died as infants. I have two living children, ages 9 and 16. It should be no surprise that I turned to food for comfort; I ate myself to a whopping 420 pounds. After my marriage ended in a bitter divorce, I decided it was time for a complete makeover. I have lost more than 200 pounds. Because of my weight loss, I have gained better health, more energy, a better outlook on life -- and almost 36 pounds of baggy skin. With this much excess skin, I’m sure you can imagine that I bring a whole new meaning to the word “skinny.” Insurance will not help with skin removal. Burn centers use skin from cadavers, so I can’t donate it to a good cause. I view myself as an overcomer of many things. I just need assistance in overcoming this oversized birthday suit. Can you please advise? -- LEFT HANGING IN COLORADO DEAR LEFT HANGING: I addressed your question to prominent Los Angeles plastic surgeon Joel Aronowitz, who suggests you start calling around to universities that offer plastic surgery residencies. It’s possible a resident could perform your surgery under the supervision of an experienced attending physician and you would pay a lower rate
for the procedure than you would be charged by a private physician. He also told me that Abigail i n s u r a n c e pay Van Buren should for the excision of skin Dear Abby in areas where it overlaps with other skin because it could be medically necessary if it causes problematic rashes or infections. If this is documented by an experienced plastic surgeon, those areas of your body might be covered by your insurance. Many people finance their plastic surgeries through companies that specialize in this. The doctor’s patient coordinator can direct you to one that works with the practice. However, I would advise you to wait until you have lost ALL of the weight you intend to before getting anything done. DEAR ABBY: About 10 years ago I became involved with a man I later found out was married. It was hard for me, but I ended the relationship and ceased all contact with him because I didn’t want to be the cause of a broken family. Since then, I no longer think of myself as a good person, Abby. I can’t forget that I was the “other
woman,” and I feel horrible. I have tried my best to “keep my nose clean.” I returned to college to complete a degree, and I avoid the dating scene. I graduated with good grades, but with all the free time I have now, I realize how lonely I am. The majority of my friends are married or in long-term relationships. I visit with them less and less because it reminds me of my aching to have a special someone. I’m tired of hating myself and feeling lonely, but I’m afraid I’ll mess up again. Do you have any advice? -- MISERABLE IN KILLEEN, TEXAS DEAR MISERABLE: Yes. Please stop feeling guilty and flogging yourself for what happened. In a sense, you were as much a victim of this cheater as his wife was. Instead, thank your lucky stars that he didn’t waste more of your time. While I understand why you’d question your judgment or have some trust issues, by avoiding all contact with men, you have gone too far. If necessary, talk this through with a religious adviser or a mental health professional. If you do, it will help you more quickly get on with your life. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)
Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). Just because you have a right to do something doesn’t mean you should do it. Your rules for yourself are more stringent than the rules of the law or even the rules of etiquette. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your mood won’t change with the moods of others. You’ll be the fixed point, and others will adjust to your frequency. Lucky for them, you’re likely to set it at something that will improve their lives. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’ve stopped taking things personally and concerning yourself with rewards or punishments. The situation you’re in calls for rational thinking. There are only actions and consequences. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll approach a stranger you want to know as you would a sincere friend, and before long, that is what you become. People will trust you because you prove to be trustworthy.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As long as a relationship seems to be progressing, don’t worry that it’s going rather slowly. Take each interaction less seriously. Relax and let natural rhythms take hold. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People love you. It’s hard to remember this when you’re not with the ones you love or when they’re not behaving as well as they could be. Reach out and let them show you that you are loved. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You needn’t slap on a veneer of kindness, helpfulness and interest if that’s not what you are feeling. If it happens naturally, great. But if it doesn’t, you’ll be better off acknowledging your true feelings. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you can’t seem to get yourself to take action on your own behalf, make plans and tell people about them. The added social pressure will help to motivate you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You feel positive about a relationship that offers solid commitments, emotional and otherwise. You find a lack of commitment bothersome and are put off by people who seem to be making things up as they go. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Think of more options than you have already. If you confine yourself to the first few possibilities right off the top of your head, you’ll be doing yourself a disservice. Go deep for the best solutions possible. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your willpower is strong, and your ability to overcome adversity is impressive. You’ll put these gifts to work today, and you’ll be propelled toward a goal. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Good relationships can be crafted; great ones are an art. People who practice being good to people, having fun with people and supporting people become better at it. The art is in making the craft invisible.

Vols’ stability brings success The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The big difference at Tennessee this spring is how much has stayed the same. Tennessee coach Butch Jones opens spring practice Friday with all the same coordinators and position coaches who were with him last year. This marks the first time Tennessee has returned its entire coaching staff intact since 2007, when it went on to reach the Southeastern Conference championship game. That continuity represents a major step forward for a program marked by instability since the 2008 exit of Phillip Fulmer. “It’s huge,” Jones said. “You can’t put a value on it because
it’s so significant. You win with consistency and continuity, consistency in messaging.” When Jones took over at Tennessee, he became Volunteers’ fourth coach in six seasons, not including Jim Chaney’s one-game stint as an interim coach in 2012. Some of last year’s seniors went through four position coaches in as many years. This year, Tennessee’s new faces will be on the field instead of on the sideline or in the booth. Although he was just hired in December 2012, Jones already has been part of Tennessee’s program longer than about half the players on his spring roster. The Vols hope a heralded
recruiting class featuring 14 early enrollees will help fortify a team that must replace all of last year’s full-time starters on the offensive and defensive lines. Jones also must decide on a starting quarterback before Tennessee opens the season Aug. 30 by hosting Utah State. That’s a major challenge for a program coming off four consecutive losing seasons, the first time that’s happened at Tennessee since 1903-06. Tennessee went 5-7 in Jones’ first season. “We have a group of young men that are hungry,” Jones said. “They’re eager. They’re willing. They just need to be taught.” The quarterback competi-
tion figures to garner much of the attention. Senior Justin Worley made seven starts last year before undergoing surgery on his right thumb. Sophomore Joshua Dobbs started the final four games in Worley’s place. Sophomore Nathan Peterman started a 31-17 loss to Florida before injuring his throwing hand. The competition also features redshirt freshman Riley Ferguson. “There are no timetables,” Jones said. “That person will emerge. I don’t know if it’s the second week of spring. I don’t know if it’s after the conclusion of the Orange & White Game. I don’t know if it’s the Please see VOLS |11A

The fifth-seeded Gators (19-11) will play No. 12 Kentucky, the tournament’s No. 4 seed, on Friday.

Razorbacks throttle Ole Miss 110 - 80 The Associated Press
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — If Arkansas wanted to put its best foot forward for the NCAA tournament selection committee, consider that mission accomplished. The Razorbacks, playing lately like the Razorbacks of old during the glory days under former coach Nolan Richardson, made perhaps their best case yet in a 110-80 throttling of Ole Miss. Led by Anthlon Bell’s career-high 23 points, Arkansas (21-9, 10-7 Southeastern Conference) used a barrage of 3-pointers — 17 of them to be exact — to extend its winning streak to six games. It’s the longest streak in regular-season conference play since the 1997-98 season under Richardson, and it comes at a time when the
Razorbacks are desperate to earn their first postseason berth since 2008. They’ve won eight of nine games overall since opening SEC play 2-6, but none were as convincing as Wednesday’s rout over the Rebels (17-13, 8-9). “It would be nice if I said senior night was scripted like that, but it wasn’t scripted like that,” Arkansas coach Mike Anderson said. “... We’re playing well, and as a coach, that’s what you want to be trending at the right time, the right way.” Bell set the tone early, scoring 14 points in less than 3 minutes as Arkansas turned a one-point first-half deficit into a 14-point lead in a matter of minutes. The sophomore, whose previous career best of 19 points
came less than two weeks ago at Mississippi State, hit four of his first five 3-pointers and finished 7-of-10 shooting from behind the arc — helping the Razorbacks match the school’s mark for most made in an SEC game. His 23 points came in just 12 minutes of action. “It felt good,” Bell said. “Once I just hit the floater and then I came down and hit on transition, it just felt good the rest of the night. It’s like the rim was just wide open.” Mardracus Wade, making just his third start of the season on senior night, added five 3-pointers and finished with a season-high 18 points. Arkansas’ bench outscored a shell-shocked Ole Miss 7126 on a night when the Rebels simply had no answers — falling behind by as many as
46 points in the second half before Anderson rested his regulars. Marshall Henderson had 15 points to lead the Rebels, who have lost six of seven games, while Jarvis Summers added 11. “Freight train, buzz saw, whatever space you’ve got to fill,” Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said while describing the loss. Arkansas’ win snapped a six-game losing streak to Ole Miss, which had also won four straight in Bud Walton Arena before Wednesday. The Razorbacks trailed 1716 early in the game after a jump shot by Summers, but Bell followed by spearheading a remarkable 3-point barrage that left Arkansas up 56-34 at Please see THROTTLE |11A
Even dozen: Last place Mississippi State routed by Georgia The Associated Press
ATHENS, Ga. — Georgia is eager to get a couple of days off at the Southeastern Conference tournament. With one more win, the Bulldogs will have their spot in the quarterfinals. Kenny Gaines scored 14 points and Georgia overcame a sluggish start to keep its hold on third place in the SEC, routing Mississippi State 66-45 Wednesday night. The top four SEC teams receive a bye through the first two rounds of the tourney,
which will be held next week in Atlanta. Georgia leads Tennessee and Arkansas by a game and can clinch third place with a win Saturday at LSU, the regularseason finale. “That’s very important,” Gaines said. “If you get to skip those first two days, you have more time to mentally rest and physically rest.” Georgia (17-12, 11-6 SEC) still hopes to make a run at the NCAAs, though a middling RPI ranking likely means it would have to knock off LSU and at
least beat either No. 1 Florida or No. 25 Kentucky in the SEC tournament. Coach Mark Fox doesn’t want his team thinking too far ahead. “This group has to stay in the moment,” he said. “They can’t handle much more than that.” To drive that point home, Fox called a timeout with his team up by 19 points after Gaines got a little too flashy on a drive to the basket, passing up an easy shot to flip the ball back to Nemanja Djurisic for a layup.
“Now that we’ve had some success, we need to know how to handle success,” Fox said. “That was just a little reminder.” Showboating aside, Gaines has led Georgia’s resurgence, averaging 18.3 points over the last six games while hitting more than 50 percent from 3-point range. Earlier in the season, Fox felt the sophomore guard was trying too hard to replace Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Please see DOZEN | 11A

week prior to Utah State. That will take care of itself.� Jones says he’s looking for playmakers, both on offense and defense. The return of linebacker Curt Maggitt from a torn anterior cruciate ligament and the arrival of freshman running back Jalen Hurd and wide receiver Josh Malone - both listed as five-star prospects by at least one recruiting service - should help in that regard. Tennessee also must rebuild its special teams following the graduation of kicker, punter and kickoff specialist Michael Palardy. Jones called Palardy the most valuable player of last year’s team. Tennessee isn’t at full strength this spring. Wide receivers Drae Bowles and Ryan Jenkins, tight end Brendan Downs, safety Brian Randolph and defensive lineman Trevarris
Saulsberry aren’t participating in spring drills as they recover from injuries. Wide receiver Alton “Pig� Howard is on a leave of absence from the team to deal with personal issues. Reserve defensive lineman Gregory Clark left the team during the offseason. Jones still likes what he has. Jones says the Vols have upgraded their overall team speed. He notes that nine of his players can squat over 600 pounds, something none of the Vols could do last spring. He sees plenty of potential from this young group. Now it’s just a matter of watching it develop. “Things don’t change overnight,� Jones said. “We live in an instant gratification society, I understand that, but we’re going to build it the right way so it’s set in stone for a very, very long period of time.�

Georgia’s leading scorer from a year ago who now plays in the NBA. “He felt like he needed to be Kentavious,� Fox said. “That’s not who he is. He needed to be Kenny.� Georgia trailed 16-8 in the early going but took control before the first half was done, leading 37-24 at the break. Last-place Mississippi State (13-17, 3-14) is closing out another dismal year under second-year coach Rick Ray, who went 10-22 in his debut season. His team shot just 34 percent (17 of 50) and had no one in double figures. In a repeat of the teams’ first game at Starkville, Georgia got off to a rough start before turning things around with its superior depth, closing out the first half on a 29-8 run. The home team knocked down seven straight shots after beginning 2-of-13 from the field. Mississippi State, which has dropped 12 straight, ended the half with an especially brutal stretch. With 14 seconds left on the shot clock, I.J. Ready fouled Charles Mann far away from the basket. After Mann sank both free throws, Mississippi State tried to run the clock down as much as possible before getting off a final shot. But Trivante Bloodman turned the ball over driving toward the basket, and Georgia took off the other way with 5 seconds left — enough time for Mann to flip a lob pass to Gaines for a thunderous dunk just before the buzzer.
Mann and Gaines chest-bumped before Georgia ran off the court to a raucous ovation from the sparse crowd, up comfortably by 13. When the teams met three weeks ago, Georgia fell behind by 14 points in the first half before rallying to win 75-55 — its biggest road triumph in the past three seasons. Marcus Thornton added 13 points and Mann had 10. In all, 10 players scored for Georgia. Roquez Johnson and Craig Sword led Mississippi State with 9 points. “We have to play tough for the whole game,� Johnson said. “That has to change for us to improve in the future.�

South Carolina opens spring practice without star players
12). The Commodores, who have lost nine of 11, failed to win an SEC tournament game for the first time in 15 years. Georgia had lost nine of 12 to Vanderbilt, but the Lady Bulldogs took control of the game with a 16-0 run late in the first half to take a 15-point lead on Halle Washington’s putback.
ers coach Steve Spurrier Jr. “But it was good to get a good day in— just to line up and run plays and snap the ball.� South Carolina fans already expected a quieter spring after defensive end Jadeveon Clowney, expected to be a top NFL draft pick for years, moved on, along with other stars such as quarterback Connor Shaw, defensive tackle Kelcy Quarles and cornerback Victor Hampton. Head coach Spurrier has said he still expects to compete for South Carolina’s first Southeastern Conference title and a fourth straight 11-win season or better. Whether the Gamecocks do that might hinge on a very inexperienced secondary. Just four cornerbacks returns, and none of them have more than two starts. The team recruited the position heavily and expects those freshmen to get on the field quickly. But they aren’t around for the spring, Ward said.
“Whether we have enough good players to win a lot of ball games in the SEC — they’re not on campus yet,� Ward said. On offense, Spurrier has said even with Shaw graduating, there won’t be a competition at quarterback as senior Dylan Thompson will be his starter. All-SEC running back Mike Davis is back, too. If there is a breakout star for South Carolina next fall, it could be sophomore wide receiver Pharoh Cooper. Spurrier has tinkered with him taking snaps in the wildcat formation. “For him to come from a guy who wanted to be a lockdown corner when he got here to playing receiver, returning punts and playing quarterback at a high level, he’s certainly proven he can play,� Spurrier Jr. said Thursday. “We’re going to try to get him on the field and give him the ball as much as we can.� South Carolina is on spring break next week and won’t return to practice until March 18.

They later led 97-51 after a pair of free throws by Alandise Harris with 10:09 remaining. “They’re playing as well as anybody in our league to this point,� Kennedy said. “And they certainly showed it tonight. “That’s an NCAA tour-
nament team, and hopefully they’ll continue to show that and get that opportunity.� Arkansas reached the 100-point mark after a free throw by Rickey Scott with 8:18 remaining, after which Anderson rested many of his regulars down the stretch. The Razorbacks finished 17 of 30 overall from behind the arc. The team record for most 3s made in a game is 21, set against Troy State in 1996. Five players scored in double figures for Arkan-
sas, which hasn’t reached the NCAA tournament since 2008. Ky Madden finished with 14 points, while Coty Clarke and Harris added 13 each.

Obama: Crimean separation vote would break law The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama declared on Thursday that a referendum in 10 days on the future of a Ukraine’s Crimea peninsula would violate international law. The United States also moved to impose visa restrictions and financial sanctions on Russians and Ukrainians for the moves Moscow already has made into Crimea. Speaking from the White House, Obama said any decisions on the future of Crimea, a proRussian area of Ukraine, must include the country’s new government. “The proposed referendum on the future of Crimea would violate the constitution and violate international law,” Obama said. “We are well beyond the days when borders can be redrawn
over the heads of democratic leaders.” Obama spoke hours after a March 16 date was set for a referendum on whether the region should become part of Russia. Russian forces began moving into Crimea about a week ago, despite Obama’s warnings that there would be costs for such actions. Seeking to follow through on that threat, Obama moved Thursday to enact new visa restrictions on an unspecified and unidentified number of people and entities that the U.S. accused of threatening Ukraine’s sovereignty and territorial borders. The restrictions were unlikely to directly target Russian President Vladimir Putin. Obama also signed an executive order that will allow the U.S. to levy financial sanctions. In a

statement, the White House said the penalties would target “those who are most directly involved in destabilizing Ukraine, including the military intervention in Crimea, and does not preclude further steps should the situation deteriorate.” In Brussels, meanwhile, the European Union announced it was suspending talks with Russia on an economic pact and on a visa deal in response to the Russian intervention in Crimea. EU leaders, like Obama, threatened further sanctions if Russia pushes ahead. “I am confident that we are moving forward together, united in our determination to oppose actions that violate international law and to support the government and people of Ukraine,” Obama said. Senior Obama administration officials said penalties will deepen significantly if Russia presses into areas of eastern Ukraine, though they said there is currently no indication Moscow has taken that step. The officials
also indicated that the penalties could be ratcheted down if Russia pulls back its troops in Crimea and recognizes Ukraine’s new government. “We call on Russia to take the opportunity before it to resolve this crisis through direct and immediate dialogue with the government of Ukraine,” the White House statement read. Ukraine’s unrest peaked in February, after months of pro-Western protests seeking the overthrow of President Viktor Yanukovych in anger over economic woes and corruption. Yanukovych, who is pro-Russian, fled for protection to a location just outside of Moscow, and Putin sent troops into Crimea in a show of force against the upstart government in Kiev. Crimea is a peninsula that hosts a major Russian navy base and is historically and culturally a Russian stronghold. The visa bans will be imposed immediately and come in addition to an earlier State Department
decision to deny U.S. entry to those involved in human rights abuses related to political oppression in Ukraine. Officials would not say whether Yanukovych was a target of the visa ban or the sanctions. The sanctions plan, outlined in an executive order, lays the legal groundwork for the Treasury Department to impose financial penalties on offenders. The aim is clearly to punish the separatist movement in Crimea as well as Russia for its decision to send military forces there. Specifically, the sanctions would target people who undermine Ukraine’s democracy and new government; threaten the country’s peace, security, stability and sovereignty; are linked to misappropriations of government assets; and try to assert governmental authority over any part of Ukraine without the consent of Kiev. They would also prohibit U.S. persons from doing business with those who have been sanctioned.
Congress has been rushing to impose hardhitting sanctions on Russia in response to its takeover of Crimea, hoping Europe will follow the lead of the United States in upping the pressure on Putin’s government. The U.S. sanctions push represents a rare case of broad agreement among the Obama administration and Democrats and Republicans in both houses of Congress. But they all are also united in their concern that American economic penalties will mean little without the participation of European countries with far deeper commercial relations with Russia. Brendan Buck, a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner, welcomed the sanctions and said the Ohio Republican is “committed to working with the administration to give President Obama as many tools as needed to put President Putin in check as well as prevent Russia from infringing on the sovereignty of any of its other neighbors.”
General admits guilt on 3 counts, not all The Associated Press
FORT BRAGG, N.C. — In his immaculate blue dress uniform, Brig. Gen. Jeffrey A. Sinclair stood ramrod straight before a judge Thursday and pleaded guilty to three charges that could send him to prison for up to 15 years. It was a remarkable admission sure to end the military career of a man once regarded as a rising star among the U.S. Army’s small cadre of trusted battle commanders. Sinclair, 51, still faces five other charges stem-
ming from the claims of a female captain nearly 20 years his junior who says the general twice forced her to perform oral sex. But by pleading guilty to the lesser charges, Sinclair’s lawyers believe they will strengthen his case at trial by potentially limiting some of the salacious evidence prosecutors can present. The former deputy commander of the 82nd Airborne could be sentenced to life in prison if convicted of the sexual assaults. Opening statements were expected Friday. Asked by judge Col. James Pohl whether he clearly understood the consequences of his admissions, the decorated veteran of five combat deployments answered in a clear voice, with no emotion: “Yes sir.” Pohl accepted Sinclair’s plea after nearly three hours of detailed and often intimate questions about the married general’s flirtations and dalliances with four women — three military officers and one civilian. The case against Sinclair, believed to be the most senior member of the U.S. military ever to face trial on sexual assault charges, comes as the Pentagon grapples with revelations of rampant rape and sexual misconduct within the ranks. The U.S. Senate on Thursday
blocked a bill that would have stripped senior military commanders of their authority to prosecute rapes and other serious offenses in the ranks. The bill was firmly opposed by the Pentagon. The general pleaded guilty to having improper relationships with two female Army officers and to committing adultery with a third, the captain who was his longtime mistress. Adultery is a crime in the military. He also admitted to violating orders by possessing pornography and to conduct unbecoming of an officer and a gentleman. After he knew he was under investigation, Sinclair also admitted deleting nude photos from a personal email account sent by a civilian woman with whom he was childhood friends. Sinclair’s lawyer Richard Scheff said before the plea that his client was taking responsibility for his actions, but also strengthening his legal position. By admitting guilt on the three charges for which there is the strongest evidence, the married father of two hoped to narrow the focus of the trial to charges that rely heavily on the testimony and credibility of his former mistress. In pleading guilty to possessing a cache of porn on his laptop in Afghanistan, a violation of orders
FORGIVENESS IS WHERE GOD PUTS IT! Acts 2 is a vivid and dramatic account of the beginning of the greatest commission God ever put into human hands--the preaching of the saving gospel of Christ. It is the dawn of a new age, the church age, the last dispensation of time on earth for mankind. With precise logic and manifest appeals to the prophets Joel and David, the apostle Peter shows that the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ was God’s plan all along, and that they (the first “hearers” of the gospel) were the very ones who put Him to death. Imagine if you will that you were one of those hearers and you realized that you had played a part in the death of Christ. No doubt you would have been “cut to the heart” as they were (Acts 2:37), so when they asked Peter, “What shall we do?”, your ears would have been perked as he answered, REPENT, AND BE BAPTIZED EVERY ONE OF YOU IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST FOR THE REMISSION OF SINS .... (verse 38) Now, do me a favor. Check that--do yourself a favor, and try your dead-level best to clear away all the denominational bias, all the preconceived ideas, and all the swelling words and smooth rhetoric of every “pastor”, preacher, or teacher who ever tried to explain away the obvious import of Peter’s answer-then read it again! Now, ask yourself, “As one who believes that Jesus is the Christ, what does God want me to do in order to be forgiven of my sins?” The honest and unbiased answer is obvious, “Repent and be baptized!” There are some difficult verses in the Bible--BUT THIS IS NOT ONE OF THEM! You nor I could have put it any plainer if God had allowed us to write His word. And please remember that Peter’s answer was guided by the Holy Spirit. Remission (forgiveness) of sins is provided by God Himself. He could have put it anywhere He wished in His plan of salvation. He could have put it right after our faith ... ,but He didn’t. He could have put it right after our repentance ... ,but He didn’t. He could have put it right after our baptism..., AND HE DOES! Only the Lord’s truth can save us (John 8:31-32) CLEAR CREEK CHURCH OF CHRIST Minister: Duane Ellis Mail comments to: 2 Sunnywood, Corinth, MS 38834
for soldiers in the socially conservative Muslim country, Sinclair’s defense hopes to limit the ability of prosecutors to use those graphic images to shock the jury. Prosecutors also have evidence Sinclair asked two female officers to send nude photos of themselves to him. By conceding his guilt, the defense lessens the relevance of the messages they exchanged. The primary accuser is the only one alleging assault. “What remains of this case really rests on the damaged and tattered credibility of an individual who’s not been truthful, who has lied before the court, who has given inconsistent statements,” Scheff said outside the courthouse. “Frankly, I think it’s an embarrassment that this case will go forward. But it’s going forward, and we’ll have not guilty verdicts at the end.” The defense will present evidence that the female captain lied under oath during a pretrial hearing in January about her handling of old iPhone containing messages between her and the general. Lawyers for Sinclair have painted the woman as a scorned lover who only reported the sexual assault allegations after the general refused to leave his wife. The captain testified that on Dec. 9, shortly after what she described as a contentious meeting with prosecutors, she rediscovered an old iPhone stored in a box at her home that still contained saved text messages and voicemails from the general. After charging the phone, she testified she synced it with her computer to save photos before contacting her attorney. However, a defense expert’s examination suggested the captain powered up the device more than two weeks before the meeting with prosecutors. Three additional experts verified the finding. The Associated Press generally does not identify those who say they were sexually assaulted. During a pretrial hearing this week, a top Pentagon lawyer testified that the lead prosecutor assigned to the case for nearly two years, Lt. Col. William Helixon, had urged that the most serious charges against Sinclair be dropped after he became convinced the captain had lied to him about the cellphone.

Never miss out on an opportunity to witness There are many times we have the opportunity to witness to someone we don’t know and we let the opportunity go by. When this happens we feel that it may be out of our comfort zone, so we don’t say anything. It’s amazing how many Christians will not say a word about Jesus to a complete stranger. I wonder why? Jesus told us in the gospel of Matthew 28:19-20, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the
name of the Father, of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teachthem Gary ing to obey evAndrews erything I Devotionals have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” There are so many people hurting in our communities, and many of these
people are our neighbors, families, co-workers, and friends. To all of these we will talk about the saving grace of Jesus and help them in anyway we can. This is because they are in our comfort zone, and they know us for who we really are. Outside of this realm of people there are many others who will be helped by us either by their asking or our volunteering. We don’t know these people by name but we will help them with food, ma-
terials, clothing, or money, but we will not say anything to them about the saving grace of Jesus. So many times these people need spiritual help more than materialistic items. There is an old saying that says, “A good exercise for the heart is to bend over and help another up.” How true this is, and what a feeling you will receive when you are able to help someone else. What a greater feeling it is to see
State House panel furthers religious practice legislation BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
JACKSON — A Mississippi House panel on Tuesday changed and passed a bill that says state and local government cannot put a substantial burden on religious practices. Supporters say the bill would reinforce the constitutional guarantee of religious freedom and could have practical applications, such as helping churches that encounter problems with local zoning rules. Opponents worry, however, that the bill is vaguely worded and could lead to discrimination against gay people or other groups. Senate Bill 2681 is called the Mississippi Religious Freedom Restoration Act. It passed the House Judiciary B Committee and goes the full House for debate in coming days. The original version of the bill, which passed the Mississippi Senate on Jan. 31, was similar to a measure that Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed last week. Judiciary B Committee Chairman Andy Gipson, R-Braxton, said that by limiting the Mississippi bill to government action and excluding private action, it’s different from
the Arizona bill. “I don’t think it was Arizona before, and I know that with the House version it’s not the Arizona bill,” Gipson, who’s a Baptist minister, said after the bill passed his committee. “It was arguable whether it was doing what people said it did in the Senate version. Just to eliminate that argument, we took it to a clear state action only.” The bill also would add the motto “In God We Trust” to the Mississippi state seal, as requested by Republican Gov. Phil Bryant. The Christian Action Commission, a lobbying arm of the Mississippi Baptist Convention, supports the bill. More than a dozen Mississippi State University students protested against the bill Tuesday at the Capitol. Doctoral student L.B. Wilson called it “lazy legislation” that could be open to broad interpretation if it becomes law. He said he thinks it is intentionally targets gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people for potential discrimination. “It opens that door wide enough that anyone with a genuinely held religious belief is permitted to discriminate on any grounds without worry that the state might intervene,” Wilson said.

Pope defensive on sex abuse as commission lags The Associated Press
VATICAN CITY — Pope Francis is coming under increasing criticism that he simply doesn’t get it on sex abuse. Three months after the Vatican announced a commission of experts to study best practices on protecting children, no action has been taken, no members appointed, no statute outlining the commission’s scope approved. Francis hasn’t met with any victims, hasn’t moved to oust a bishop convicted in 2012 of failing to report a suspected abuser, and on Wednesday insisted that the church had been unfairly attacked on abuse, using the defensive rhetoric of the Vatican from a decade ago. Victims’ advocates said his tone was archaic and urged Francis to show the same compassion he offers the sick, the poor and disabled to people who were raped by priests when they were children. “Under Pope Francis
the Vatican continues to deny its role in creating and maintaining a culture where upholding the reputation of the church is prioritized over the safety of children,” said Maeve Lewis, executive director of the Irish victims’ support group One in Four. To be sure, Francis adores children like a father, and he has continued to defrock pedophile priests. But unlike Pope Benedict XVI, he has rarely spoken out about abuse, indicating it clearly has not been a priority in his first year as pope. Instead, he has focused on introducing the world to his merciful vision of the church and reforming the Vatican bureaucracy. The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said Wednesday the upheaval of those reforms had delayed getting the commission off the ground. But he said there was no doubt it would, and that it would
eventually propose new initiatives to protect children and be a model for the church and society at large. “I’m waiting for it, and I hope with all my heart (and I know that qualified experts have been contacted in an exploratory way to see if they would be available),” Lombardi said in an email. Francis has only spoken out a few times on abuse and his toughest words weren’t even pronounced. Francis apparently scrapped his prepared Dec. 2 speech to bishops from the Netherlands, who have been dealing with revelations that some 20,000 children were sexually abused in Dutch Catholic institutions over the past 65 years. Instead, Francis spoke to the bishops offthe-cuff. On Jan. 31, Francis did mention his new sex abuse commission in a speech to the Vatican’s Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith,
which handles sex abuse cases. In his final words before imparting his blessing, he said children must always be protected and that he wants his new sex abuse study commission to be a model. “For a year we’ve been saying that while Pope Francis is making progress on church finance and governance he’s done nothing — literally nothing — that protects a single child, exposes a single predator or prevents a single cover up,” said Barbara Dorris of the main U.S. victim’s group SNAP. The Vatican has in the past decade overhauled its internal procedures to make it easier to oust rapists. But it still has no blanket policy telling bishops to report abusers to police or risk being sanctioned themselves, and to date no bishop has been punished for a cover up. In addition, the harshest penalty the church hands out is to essentially fire the abuser.
Religion Briefs The Associated Press
Israel: Palestinians must recognize Jewish state WASHINGTON — In a White House meeting with President Barack Obama, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has reiterated his demand that Palestinians recognize Israel as a Jewish state. At a joint press conference, Obama said he believes that with compromise on both sides, “It is still possible to create two states, a Jewish state of Israel and a state of Palestine, with people living side by side in peace and security.” Netanyahu responded that Obama “rightly” called Israel a Jewish state. The Israeli leader said Israel has been the Jewish homeland for thousands of years, and if Palestinians want recognition for a Palestinian state, they must “recognize a nation state
for the Jewish people.” The Palestinians reject that out of hand, saying it would undermine the property claims of displaced Palestinian refugees and rights of Israel’s Arab minority.
Johnson warns, however, that the flood appears to be punishment for man’s destruction of the environment, and that Noah wonders if his own family should be the last.
Studio adds ‘explanatory message’ to Noah film
Re-creation of Noah’s Ark progresses in Kentucky
WASHINGTON — National Religious Broadcasters President Jerry Johnson is thanking Paramount Pictures for adding what he calls a “disclaimer” to advertising for its movie “Noah,” starring Russell Crowe, which debuts in theaters March 28. The studio is advising filmgoers that the movie “is inspired by the story of Noah,” and that “artistic license has been taken.” The NRB president, who previewed the film, praises its acting, production values, and faithfulness to the biblical story’s main elements of sin, judgment and restoration.
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — A Christian ministry’s long-stalled plans to build Noah’s Ark in the hills of Kentucky have been revived. Creation Museum founder Ken Ham says a municipal bond offering has raised enough money to begin construction on the Ark Encounter project, estimated to cost about $73 million. Groundbreaking is planned for May and the ark is expected to be finished by the summer of 2016. Ham said a high-profile evolution debate he had with “Science Guy” Bill Nye earlier this month helped boost support for the project.
