Police put vehicles up for auction BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
Looking for a car? Corinth P.D. has a dozen to sell. Eight vehicles seized from criminal activities and several surplused police vehicles will be listed at govdeals.com, an auction site where governments offer vehicles and equipment.
Anyone can bid. Police Chief Ralph Dance said the department wants to let the local public know about the sale in case anyone is interested. In recent years, local governments have begun to use the auction site more and more. “It’s easier for us to put a few on there as we go than to stock-
pile and save up 40 or 50 vehicles for an auction,” said Dance. The vehicles were expected to be listed on the site today. They can be found by searching for the City of Corinth, and there will be no reserve pricing. Dance said some of the better offerings are a four-wheel-drive Jeep Liberty and a Cadillac that
runs well with 125,000 miles on the odometer. There is a Toyota Tundra that needs some work, and a couple that aren’t in working order, including a Trailblazer. Any defects in the vehicles will be noted in the auction listings. The former police vehicles,
including several Crown Victorias, have been stripped of the blue lights and other equipment. The department recently took some older vehicles off the street after the purchase of two new Chevrolet Tahoes for the patrol fleet. The vehicles are parked at the correctional facility parking lot.
J.A. continues banner tradition Corinth launches BY KIMBERLY SHELTON

It was a gloomy Thursday morning as Junior Auxiliary Charity Ball Chair Jamie Jones and Charity Ball Co-Chair Lyndsie Beatty gathered at the home of James E. “Sonny” Boatman for a special surprise. Boatman was jovial as he stood on the front lawn of his Taylor Street residence where the traditional banner was soon placed, honoring him as JA’s 2014 Outstanding Citizen of the Year. The Corinth Artist Guild Gallery President said he was ecstatic upon first learning of his distinction on March 22, 2014, during Junior Auxiliary’s 52nd Annual Charity Ball. Nominated by Debbie Tallent as a tireless contributor who consistently avoids the limelight and accolades for his service, the Corinth resident graciously accepted the award. “I was stunned,” said a very animated Boatman. “I am humbled to be in such good company as the people who have won in the past.” Cementing his place among past Outstanding Citizen’s of the Year, the now 84-year-old achieved celebrity status as he pressed his palms in clay for his own star on JA’s Hollywood Walk of Fame. The Outstanding Citizen Award is presented yearly to an exemplary individual who has been dedicated to, served and contributed to their community. As is customary, the 2015 Citizen of the Year will be presented at this year’s ball. Invitations have gone out and the guest list is filling up quick-

Safety is getting renewed emphasis alongside Corinth city employees’ mission of service. The city is partnering with the Mississippi Municipal Service Company, which provides the city’s worker’s compensation and municipal liability coverage, on a pilot initiative that will keep the safety message before employees through training and other efforts. In its last regular meeting,
the Board of Mayor and Aldermen adopted a safety mission statement and appointed Kim Ratliff as safety coordinator. “There has always been an emphasis on safety, but not to the extent that we’re getting ready to do now,” said Ratliff, who works with code enforcement and other projects. “Every department has their own different sets of liabilities. Everybody has different public interactions, and that creates Please see SAFETY | 2A

Alcorn County 4-H hosts Creative Arts Day BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Build, make and decorate. Area youngsters took time out of their Spring Break to do just that at the Mississippi State Extension Service. Close to 20 children sampled the many opportunities 4-H has to offer during the Spring Creative Arts Day. “This is a great way to promote 4-H,” said agent Tammy Parker. “There is no cost for them to be introduced to everything 4-H involves.” Mary Linda Moore, in charge of Family Resource Management with the extension service, and Jaylene Whitehurst helped youngsters with a quartet of creative events. Kids constructed a block art design to get the day going. They also took part in making an Easter Tree and rain stick
before ending the day by creating a collage. The promotion of 4-H didn’t end on Thursday. 4-H Movie Night makes its debut on March 27 at the extension office. The event is set for 6-8 p.m. and is free, according to Parker. More than six million 4-H youth in urban neighborhoods, suburban schoolyards and rural farming communities stand out among their peers, making the club the nation’s largest youth development organization. 4-H builds revolutionary opportunities and implements community-wide change at an early age. It offers numerous programs and growth opportunities which put the heads, hearts, hands and health of youth to work learning and applying the essential elements of the 4-H program.

Disability advocates keep eye on new Texas governor Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — A broken elevator almost canceled part of the first photo-op of 2015 for new Texas Gov. Greg Abbott, the first U.S. governor in nearly 30 years to use a wheelchair. Without the elevator, Abbott and a teenager with cerebral palsy would have been unable to get to the third floor of an Austin high school, where they were to unveil new automatic doors at a ribbon-cutting event. Thanks to a fingerscrossed fix, the elevator was repaired in time. But
the snag demonstrated the complications involved when the state’s highest-ranking public official is paralyzed from the waist down. Abbott’s physical limitations provide more exposure to the difficulties faced by disabled Americans, and the new governor could be an asset to organizations pressing for changes to ease the public lives of the disabled in Texas and elsewhere. But while advocates take some pride in having a governor with visible disabilities, their optimism is muted by
Up to 24 Months same as cash w.a.c. & monthly payment
Abbott’s record. And the Republican is making clear that his agenda doesn’t include some major reforms sought by agencies representing the disabled, including a proposal to get Texas to stop fighting lawsuits brought under the Americans with Disabilities Act. Efforts to close state centers for people with intellectual disabilities — another priority for disability groups — could also fail in the first legislative session under Abbott, who has ordered lawmakers to prioritize tax cuts and border security.

Mid-South Project Package, a volunteer 501 c 3, organization, sends around around 600 packages out every month. Cost to mail the boxes are $11 per package. “A fast as we get money, we send the packages,” said the volunteer. “All of our money goes into sending packages.” December postage cost the organization $8,000. Project Package was able to send only a few care packages out in January.

Each package contains items from $25-$30. “What would help greatly is a corporate sponsor,” said Chartres. “If one industry would step up monthly, it would do a lot for those soldiers who have been deployed.” Last year, Project Package took in $33,100. All but $50, which went for a certificate of registration with the state, went to send packages. Since 2004, over 60,000 packages have been delivered to service personnel. “We are volunteers,” said Chartres. “No one gets paid for doing this.” Organizers are needing $6,000 to be able to send a package to everyone serving from the MidSouth.

a potential for liability as we serve our citizens.” The effort will involve all department heads. “We are forming a safety committee that’s made up of different key persons from each department,” said Ratliff. “We will begin meeting at the end of this month and do quarterly meetings between our different safety activities.” The mission statement calls on employees to perform their work in a safe and efficient manner and to report unsafe acts or conditions. It directs employees to obey all motor vehicle laws and to exercise defensive driving. “It’s what any business would do,” said City Clerk Vickie Roach. “The city is trying to control costs every way it can.” She said the initiative stems from Mayor Tommy Irwin’s conversations with the Municipal Service Company. Ratliff hopes city workers will embrace the safety message. “I think it’s going to be a change for the better, and once everyone sees the benefit that’s involved, there’s going to be buyin,” he said.

Local/State
House race grows to 11 candidates BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press
Today is Friday, March 13, the 72nd day of 2015. There are 293 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On March 13, 1865, Confederate President Jefferson Davis signed a measure allowing black slaves to enlist in the Confederate States Army with the promise they would be set free.
On this date: In 1925, the Tennessee General Assembly approved a bill prohibiting the teaching of the theory of evolution. (Gov. Austin Peay signed the measure on March 21.) In 1933, banks in the U.S. began to reopen after a “holiday” declared by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. In 1947, the Lerner and Loewe musical “Brigadoon,” about a Scottish village which magically reappears once every hundred years, opened on Broadway. In 1954, the Battle of Dien Bien Phu began during the First Indochina War as communist forces attacked French troops, who were defeated nearly two months later. In 1964, bar manager Catherine “Kitty” Genovese, 28, was stabbed to death near her Queens, New York, home; the case gained notoriety over the supposed reluctance of Genovese’s neighbors to respond to her cries for help. In 1975, the first Chili’s restaurant was opened in Dallas by entrepreneur Larry Lavine. In 1980, Ford Motor Chairman Henry Ford II announced he was stepping down, the same day a jury in Winamac, Indiana, found the company not guilty of reckless homicide in the fiery deaths of three young women in a Ford Pinto. In 1995, two Americans working for U.S. defense contractors in Kuwait, David Daliberti and William Barloon, were seized by Iraq after they strayed across the border; sentenced to eight years in prison, both were freed the following July. In 2013, Jorge Bergoglio of Argentina was elected pope, choosing the name Francis.
Ten years ago: Pope John Paul II was released from the hospital and returned to his Vatican apartment overlooking St. Peter’s Square.
Five years ago: At least 30 people were killed in a series of Taliban suicide bombings in Afghanistan in what appeared to be a failed attempt to free inmates from a Kandahar prison. The Vatican denounced what it called aggressive attempts to drag Pope Benedict XVI into the spreading scandal of pedophile priests in his German homeland. With the biggest fight crowd in the U.S. in 17 years cheering him on at Cowboys Stadium, Manny Pacquiao dominated Joshua Clottey from the opening bell to retain his welterweight title.

JACKSON — Henry Ross, an attorney, former mayor and former circuit judge from Eupora, said Thursday that he’s running to fill a vacant U.S. House seat in north Mississippi. His announcement brings to 11 the number of candidates, so far, in the race to succeed Rep. Alan Nunnelee, who died of brain cancer in February. Nunnelee first won the 1st District seat in 2010, when he un-
seated Democratic Rep. Travis Childers. Ross — who lost to Nunnelee in the 2010 and 2012 Republican primaries — said in a statement Thursday that he wants to protect gun owners’ rights and end “fiscal irresponsibility and environmental overreach.” “In today’s America, the great virtues of limited government, self-reliance, and individual and moral responsibility are being rapidly replaced by reliance on big government,” Ross said.
“Hand-in-hand with big government come the destructive forces of redistribution and dependency.” Candidates have a March 27 deadline to qualify for the special election, which is May 12. A runoff is June 2. The winner will serve until January 2017, which is most of the two-year term that Nunnelee started. The other announced candidates are businessmen Boyce Adams and Danny Bedwell, both
of Columbus; state Sen. Nancy Collins of Tupelo; Dr. Starner Jones of Pontotoc; District Attorney Trent Kelly of Saltillo; attorney Chip Mills of Fulton; attorney Greg Pirkle of Tupelo; attorney Daniel Sparks of Oxford; Transportation Commissioner Mike Tagert of Starkville; and attorney Quentin Whitwell of Oxford. Candidates run without party labels in special elections, but most in the race so far are Republican. Bedwell is Libertarian.

Man guilty of murder, Facebook fraud fugitive on lam receives life sentence BY LARRY NEUMEISTER
Associated Press Associated Press
MARKS — A Mississippi man on Thursday was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole after a jury found him guilty of murder in the 2013 slaying of an openly gay candidate for mayor of Clarksdale. Jurors in Quitman County deliberated less than two hours before convicting Lawrence Reed, 24. Reed testified that he strangled Marco McMillian, but said he did so because he feared McMillian was trying to rape him. “I’m sorry for what happened, but I can’t take it back,” Reed told Circuit Court Judge Charles Webster on Thursday, according to the Clarksdale PressRegister. Carter D. Womack, McMillian’s godfather, said the family believes justice was served. “The evidence showed that the murder was unjust ... and it deprived us all for the hard work Marco could have done for the city as mayor as well as for the nation,” Womack said. Prosecutors argued that Reed acted with premeditation, noting Reed dragged McMillian into a water-filled ditch after strangling him. Reed told jurors he sought to revive McMillian, but told an investigator in a recorded
interview that he did so because McMillian still appeared alive. Reed dumped McMillian’s body near a Mississippi River levee and tried to burn it. Reed testified Wednesday as the only witness in his own defense, but prosecutors presented evidence contradicting key parts of his story. Reed said he blacked out before from fear and anger over McMillian’s sexual advances after McMillian drove the pair to a secluded road in Quitman County instead of taking Reed to a party. The defendant said he wanted to escape McMillian, who was looking at pornography on his cellphone and asking Reed questions about how he liked women. Reed said McMillian locked the car door and reached out to stop Reed from leaving moments before Reed strangled him with his wallet chain. “I don’t know where or how I grabbed the chain,” Reed testified. “My intent was just to hit him.” Reed explained bruises on McMillian’s body by saying when he opened the door of McMillian’s Chevy Tahoe, the candidate’s body hit the pavement. Reed said he was trying to wake McMillian when Reed dragged him into a water-filled ditch.
NEW YORK — A man accused of faking an ownership stake in Facebook to justify a multibillion-dollar lawsuit against its founder Mark Zuckerberg has vanished. Paul Ceglia, who was under house arrest pending his May 4 trial, jumped bail by slicing off an electronic monitoring device and creating a crude contraption to make it seem like he was moving around inside his home, authorities said. And the search widened on Thursday: Ceglia’s wife, two young sons and the family’s Jack Russell terrier, Buddy, also have disappeared. “I’m confident in our team up here,” U.S. Marshal Charles F. Salina said Thursday. “He’s got to get lucky every day. We’ve got to get lucky once.” Ceglia’s federal lawsuit claimed he gave Zuckerberg, a student at Harvard University at the time, $1,000 in startup money in exchange for
Brianna Carter, used a Facebook page for her photography business in Newport Beach, Calif., to urge anyone who sees the wife and kids to call local authorities. On Tuesday, she posted an image of her sister Iasia with the two boys, and urged anyone with information to call a task force at 800-336-0102. “To be honest, we’re not surprised at what he’s done,” she told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. “What we’re shocked about is that our sister would disappear. It’s not like her to go missing.” Finding the family is a priority, but Salina said there’s no information suggesting they are in danger, or even with Ceglia, and nothing to indicate that he’s armed. Carter said her sister’s extended family is trying to distribute the images widely to make their disappearance a priority. “We’re concerned they’re not going to look as hard as they should,” she said. “They’ve got bigger fish to fry if they have violent people out there.”
50 percent of the future company. But a judge dismissed his claims and prosecutors filed fraud charges after a forensic analysis of Ceglia’s computers and Harvard’s email archive determined that he had altered an unrelated contract and falsified e-mails to make it appear that Zuckerberg had promised him a half-share. Ceglia, who pleaded not guilty, now faces up to 40 years in prison if convicted mail fraud and wire fraud. He went missing either Saturday or Sunday — it’s hard to say exactly — because he hung his electronic ankle bracelet on a motor-driven device that stretched to the ceiling and moved around, prosecutors explained in papers filed Wednesday with the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan. Also Wednesday, a missing persons report was filed on Ceglia’s 36-year-old wife, Iasia, and his two sons — 10-year-old Leeman and 11-year-old Joseffinn. Ceglia’s sister-in-law,

Bibi changes the debate BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN Columnists
Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu totally changed the Iran/nuclear debate in his brilliant speech to Congress. Until he spoke, objections to the emerging draft treaty with Iran centered on technical, arcane issues like the number of centrifuges the agreement would let Iran continue to operate and the level of enrichment of uranium it would be permitted to maintain. These technical arguments do not play well in public and assume a level of knowledge that most of us don’t have. It was easy for defenders of the deal to sidetrack our objections by raising technical issues. But Netanyahu changed all that by making the issue of the agreement’s expiration date the key objection to the treaty. He was quite right that the expiration of a treaty banning nuclear weapons is tantamount to an invitation to proceed with their development. That’s an argument we all can understand. It defies logic to invest in a 10-year or 15-year deal with as implacable and stubborn a foe as Islamist Iran. A ban must last as long as the offensive regime itself remains in power and does not modify its behavior. Indeed, by tying the ban on nuclear weapons to Iran’s international conduct in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Gaza and Yemen, Netanyahu created a framework for what should be American policy toward Iran. While Obama will not accept this linkage, undoubtedly a new Republican president would. But Bibi’s speech ties Obama’s hands. He now would face almost certain congressional censure and backlash if he signs a deal with any expiration date on it. Netanyahu’s argument is irrefutable. No congressman can ignore it. Politically, the most important thing to remember about the Iranian issue is that it will likely have been resolved, one way or the other, by election day of 2016. Iran will either have the bomb -- or be well on its way to obtaining it -- or not. We will know the answer. It will be clear who was right and who was wrong. We won’t have to guess. And the answer to that question will haunt Hillary if it turns out that her and Obama’s policies were misguided. Very rarely are political issues subject to such closure. By the time of the 2016 elections, barring a crash, we will still be debating the sustainability of the Obama economic recovery. We will continue arguing about Obamacare. Climate change will remain a subject of debate. But Iranian nuclear program won’t be a matter for debate. The outcome, for better or worse, of the administration policy will be clear and an accepted feature of our political debate. Just as Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev could not go back and claim his Cuban missile adventure was wise or British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain couldn’t reach back to justify his appeasement policy when German tanks rolled through Poland, Obama’s and Hillary’s Iran policy will be an evident failure or success by the ‘16 election. Once the verdict of history is in, its implications are ruthless. There is no appeal. And, in this case, we will know the answer before we vote on a new president. And Netanyahu has redefined the debate so that a deal with an expiration date or a sunset clause will have to be considered a failure. The logic is so clear. If Iran actually explodes a nuclear weapon, or clearly has achieved the status of “threshold nuclear power,” or has agreed to a deal with a time limit, it will be obvious that Obama’s and Hillary’s negotiating strategy was naive and that they were had by the Ayatollah. This situation is fraught with peril, in particular, for Hillary’s candidacy. There will be no room for speculation as to whether her policies succeeded or failed. The outcome will be obvious to us all to see. (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, teach me this day to know that the veriest trifle often keeps happiness alive, and that the smallest trifle often may kill it. I pray that now thou wilt put within my heart that touch of love, which brings consideration for others, and the care that brings the greatest happiness. Amen.
A verse to share “A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.” — Proverbs 18:24
A speech we can all appreciate Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu showed great leadership when delivering his speech to a joint session of Congress regarding America’s potential nuclear deal with Iran. History and our past relations with Netanyahu indicate that the prime minister has earned some trust, and no matter what side of the aisle we stand on, we must stand with Israel. Israel is one of our strongest allies, and acknowledging the history that we share is important to our identity and to the promising value system we maintain. The country of Iran continues to conceal aspects of its nuclear program, and thus its compliance is heavily questioned. Iran’s regime and its quest for nuclear weapons is not merely a Jewish problem, but rather it poses a substantial and realistic threat to world peace. As was expressed by Netanyahu, things undoubtedly will become worse if there is a deal that gives the Iranians protection and enables them to continue flagrantly operating secret nuclear facilities (as they had been doing in Natanz and Qom) while ostensibly invested in a diplomatic process with the United States.
We must not allow them to continue to enrich uranium and maintain their Ben e n o r m o u s Carson nuclear infrastructure. Columnist According to estimates, Iran could have 190,000 centrifuges enriching uranium within a matter of weeks. A “breakout time” to a nuclear bomb (“breakout time” referring to the amount of time it takes to accumulate enough weapons-grade uranium or plutonium for a nuclear bomb) would be approximately one year, according to U.S. assessment. In February of 2014, the Institute for Science and International Security estimated this time period to stand at roughly two months. Meanwhile, the IAEA (or the International Atomic Energy Agency, which is the United Nations’ nuclear watchdog agency) continues to report that Iran refuses to be transparent with IAEA inspectors about its military nuclear program. The current deal with Iran allows for various concessions, including the inabil-
ity to destroy any nuclear facilities, as well as enabling all restrictions on Iran’s nuclear program to automatically expire in a decade. Does that sound comforting to you? As the United States works to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, we are also dealing with ISIS as a formidable enemy that threatens our way of life. Every resource available should be used to eradicate the threat of ISIS while it is still in its adolescent stage. This whole concept of “no boots on the ground because of what happened in Iraq” is silly. The threat that Saddam Hussein and al-Qaida posed at that time was on a completely different level from what we are looking at now. It is immature to equate the two in terms of reactions. ISIS wants to destroy our way of life and us. We have two choices: We can sit back and wait for them, or we can use the resources we have to destroy them. We need to be the leader and take serious action. I am extraordinarily concerned about the fact that we are not responding to the barbaric acts that are taking place, as there is a tremendous leadership
void. A coalition will form if it has a leader. I would commit everything to eliminating ISIS right now. We have to make sure that our military, which is extremely talented and maintains very good leadership, is not put into a compromised position where we are trying to micromanage things. Otherwise, we will be exposing many people to a state of grave danger. Across the globe, citizens are dealing with an evil in today’s society that is threatening Christians, Jews and anyone who does not believe as ISIS does. If we allow it to continue to grow, it will become a big tree with lots of branches and roots, rather than the bush it is now.

Secrecy, sex, Hillary and Bill Secrecy is to Hillary Clinton what sex was to Bill Clinton. She has to have it. She doesn’t care if it is unwise. She doesn’t care if it does more harm than good. And enjoyment doesn’t enter into it. She has been secretive for much of her political life, which is one reason that many people still have no clear idea of who she really is. Which is a shame. There is much about Hillary Clinton to admire. But there is also much to look at and ask: Who the hell does she think she is? Her current controversy — and there always seems to be a current controversy — involves her emails as secretary of state. Instead of using an official government email account, as administration policy required, Hillary set up her own private email account, apparently at her home in Chappaqua, New York. Why did she do this? We don’t know. Who actually set up the account? We don’t know. Was the person who set it up an expert on cybersecurity? We don’t know that, either. Hillary had to have been aware of the global threat of email hacking, identity theft and other cybercrimes. She also had to have been aware that foreign governments and their agencies, such as the Chinese army,

had been implicated in such crimes. And she was not exactly Ms. Nobody. Roger She was the Simon newly named United States Columnist secretary of state. So what was her very first action? She set up a private email account, hdr22@ clintonemail.com, and then used it for all her emails, official and unofficial. HDR, as people figured out when the account was made public recently, probably stood for Hillary Diane Rodham, her maiden name. Why 22? One theory is that Hillary was 22 years old when she first met Bill. And keep in mind she used this account for every email she sent and received when she was secretary of state, from 2009 to 2013. When she left office, she took all the emails with her as if they were her private property. Does this make sense to you? If it does, your name is probably hdr22. In Hillary’s world, everybody is out to get her. Which is why she surrounds herself with ultra-loyalists, people who believe, as she does, that she is entitled to special behavior and special treatment because she is a special victim.
Hillary’s inner circle was once called Hillaryland. It was known for two things: absolute allegiance and total secrecy. Even Hillary used the term every now and then. “While the West Wing had a tendency to leak ... Hillaryland never did,” she said. In reality, Hillaryland leaked all the time. But they were controlled leaks, the stories that Hillary’s people wanted in the media. To Hillary and her people, setting up a private email account was just another way to control the news. If it was private, they had a better chance of keeping things secret, they figured. For them, this was standard operating procedure. What was the big deal? Well, there are several big deals. And even though it was The New York Times that broke the email story, it was The Washington Post that wrote a real firebreather of an editorial about it March 4. Hillary’s “decision to exclusively use a private e-mail account while secretary suggests she made a deliberate decision to shield her messages from scrutiny,” the editorial said. Then it asked a number of questions that Hillary has not yet deigned to answer: “How secure was the private e-mail? What was her motive? Did anyone ask why the secretary of state was breaking with an announced

administration policy? Why did she not turn over the emails promptly upon leaving office? Has she withheld anything?” True, Hillary has been the object of partisan attacks in the past and has reason to fear future attacks. “Such fears would have had ample basis, but they do not excuse a penchant for control and secrecy that she has exhibited before – and that remains a worrying attribute as Ms. Clinton possibly enters a presidential campaign,” the editorial said. A penchant for control and secrecy. That is not exactly the campaign slogan Hillary has been looking for. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., said on “Meet the Press” Sunday: “I think that she needs to step up and come out and state exactly what the situation is. ... From this point on, the silence is going to hurt her.” At some point in the past, Bill probably realized that his fooling around was going to hurt him, his family and his country. But that didn’t make it any easier for him to stop. It’s the same thing with secrecy. After a while, you don’t even realize it’s an addiction.

Secret Service flub revives questions WASHINGTON — The latest in a string of baffling missteps by the Secret Service prompted fresh questions Thursday about whether the Obama administration has done enough to root out deep-seated problems plaguing the agency — and President Barack Obama’s decision to put an insider in charge despite his administration’s own review that called for exactly the opposite. The White House said Obama still has full confidence in recently appointed Director Joseph Clancy, despite a new investigation into two agents accused of driving into White House security barrier after a night of drinking. While declining to discuss the investigation, Obama’s aides described Clancy — who wasn’t even told about the incident for several days — as the right man to fix problems. “Nobody has higher standards for the Secret Service than Director Clancy,” said White House spokesman Eric Schultz. Yet lawmakers charged with overseeing the agency were aghast and wondered how — after intense national scrutiny and a rotating cast of directors — the Secret Service still hasn’t corrected problems involving behavior of its agents. In a rare move, the top Republican and Democrat on the House’s oversight panel joined forces to say that while many of the agency’s top leaders have already been replaced, “this incident begs the question of whether that is enough.” “Clearly this incident is a major wake-up call,” the Democrat, Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, said later in an interview.
Federal land could be open to hunters WASHINGTON — Sen. Martin Heinrich was hunting for Barbary sheep across the terrain in his native New Mexico when he was stopped in his tracks. Tracts of land around him were under the control of the federal Bureau of Land Management — and off limits. Period. Among them: areas where he recalled hiking or hunting when he was younger that are now behind a locked gate. “You have land that taxpayers own, you know, that is my kids’ birthright,” said Heinrich, who used a 270 Winchester rifle for the recent sheep hunt. “You can’t even get on it.” The New Mexico Democrat is working with a bipartisan group of Senate colleagues on legislation to dramatically broaden access to federal land for hunting,
fishing and outdoor recreation. The bill, which he is sponsoring with Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, also would ease some regulations for those who hunt and fish, and strengthen land conservation. A Senate committee scheduled its first hearing on the bill Thursday, with witnesses including federal officials and conservation experts. In a partisan Congress, the legislation stands out for its lack of outspoken critics and its wide political range of co-sponsors. They include relatively liberal members like Heinrich and bedrock conservatives like Idaho Sen. Jim Risch and Nebraska Sen. Deb Fischer. As one of its co-sponsors, North Dakota Democrat Heidi Heitkamp, put it, “There’s something for just about everyone.”
Obama anti-IS plan sees little progress WASHINGTON — U.S. military and intelligence officials are voicing increasing pessimism about a key tenet of the Obama administration’s strategy to dislodge the Islamic State group and stabilize Iraq. They say they are seeing little sign of any political accommodation between the country’s Shiite-led government and an alienated Sunni population from which the extremist force is drawing money and personnel. President Barack Obama expressed hope in September that a new Iraqi government led by Prime Minister Haider Abadi “understands that in order for Iraq to succeed it’s not just a matter of a military campaign; it’s also the need for political outreach to all factions within the country.” That’s a feat his predecessor, Nouri al-Maliki, didn’t achieve. But in the months since, the Shiitedominated government has taken few concrete steps to accommodate Sunnis, whose frustration helped fuel the Islamic State group’s push into Iraq from Syria. Joint chiefs chairman Gen. Martin Dempsey, who returned from the region this week, told Congress Wednesday he was “concerned about what happens after the drums stop beating and ISIL is defeated, and whether the government of Iraq will remain on a path to provide an inclusive government for all of the various groups within it.” Dempsey used an alternative acronym for the militant group. Director of National Intelligence James Clapper said on March 2, “I really don’t think there’s any way of reversing or changing the picture fundamentally in Iraq unless the Sunnis are included ... and so far that’s been a

House tries to bring back teacher raises
Victim describes bomber carjacking BOSTON — A carjack victim on Thursday described his harrowing ride at gunpoint with the Boston Marathon bombers three days after the attacks and the moment he made the terrifying decision to bolt from the car. Dun Meng, a Chinese national who moved to the U.S. in 2009 to attend Boston’s Northeastern University, testified in bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev’s trial that he had left work in Cambridge late on the night of April 18, 2013, when he pulled over and returned a text message. A car quickly pulled up behind him, a man got out and knocked on his passenger-side window. Meng said he thought the man was asking for directions, so he lowered his window. The man then reached in, opened the door and quickly jumped into his car, Meng said. “He point a gun to me — right to my head — he ask money first, ‘Where’s your cash?’” Meng said. Meng said he later learned the man was Tamerlan Tsarnaev, one of two brothers who had detonated twin bombs near the finish line of the marathon, killing three people and injuring more than 260. Hours before the carjacking, the FBI had publicly released photos of the Tsarnaevs as suspects in the bombing. Meng said he told Tamerlan Tsarnaev he only had about $40 in cash, and Tsarnaev pulled the magazine out of his gun to show him the bullets inside. “He told me, ‘You know I’m serious so don’t be stupid.’” Meng said Tsarnaev asked him if he knew who committed the Boston Marathon bombing. “He said, ‘I did it, and I just killed a policeman in Cambridge,’” Meng said. Meng said he realized then that this was more than a robbery. “I was very scared,” he said.
JACKSON — The Mississippi House is trying to revive a plan to give a pay raise to assistant teachers. The current base salary of the state’s roughly 6,000 assistants is $12,500 a year, although some local districts provide supplements. The House voted in February to give assistant teachers a $2,500 bump, at a cost of $15 million, raising base salaries to $15,000. Senators recently killed that plan. After brief debate Thursday, the House put the $2,500 pay raise into another education measure, Senate Bill 2300. The Senate could accept the House change. Or, the two chambers could negotiate a final version of the bill, either with or without the pay raise for assistant teachers.
Former city manager faces perjury charge GULFPORT — A Harrison County grand jury has indicted former Diamondhead City Manager Richard Rose on a perjury charge. The Sun Herald reports the indictment, returned on Tuesday, accuses Rose of lying to a state employment-review board when he said he did not demand a year’s salary in exchange for keeping silent on incriminating allegations about the city’s mayor. His denial was “a material fact” an administrative law judge considered to rule in Rose’s favor, the indictment said. The city fired Rose in June and he filed a civil complaint with the state Department of Employment Security. The judge agreed Rose was caught in a political struggle and granted him unemployment benefits. The city appealed the civil case. Rose declined to comment in a phone call Tuesday and referred questions to his attorneys. Attorney Jim Halliday called the charge “a political vendetta to de662-594-3011

Hood recovers over $30 million for state JACKSON, Miss. — Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood has delivered a check totaling just over $30 million to the state treasury from litigation involving cases against Standard & Poor’s and Capital One Bank. The law requires that I make recommendations to the Legislature for improvement of public service,” said Hood. “There are several serious criminal and civil justice issues which I have advised lawmakers of and hope they will see fit to appropriate a small portion of these recoveries to address those issues.” Among the Attorney General’s recommendation to lawmakers: —Approximately $15 million for a new forensic unit to expand the ability of the State Hospital at Whitfield to house the criminally insane. “Due to the shortage of beds, the department must move a person out in order to take another
in,” said Attorney General Hood. “As a result, defendants in need of forensic evaluation languish in county jails. “ —Approximately $2 million for dedicated supported housing and rental assistance for the mentally ill. —$3 million on an inmate re-entry project “The project would create 100 minimum security beds for felony inmates who have completed their sentences and are about to re-enter society,” said Attorney General Hood. “From this facility they would work during the day and receive drug, mental health, religious and life-skill counseling to prepare them for their release.”
Greenwood dumps some speed bumps GREENWOOD — When it comes to slowing traffic down, one Greenwood city councilman says there are better ways to do it than adding speed bumps. Councilman Johnny Jennings says a couple of speed bumps placed on streets in his district a few years ago have been pulled up while the city considers possible solutions. As an experiment, The Greenwood Commonwealth reports Jennings recently set up a “Go Pro” camera to photograph the cars that crossed over the Riverside Drive speed bump. Jennings says he wants to make sure the police enforce the city’s speed limit of 15 mph around parks and schools.

Ebola epidemic triggers bigger risk of measles BY LAURAN NEERGAARD Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Ebola’s toll moved beyond 10,000 deaths Thursday even as researchers warned of yet another threat to hard-hit West Africa: On the heels of the unprecedented devastation, large outbreaks of measles and other vaccine-preventable diseases could move into the region. Ebola derailed child immunizations in the three countries hardest hit by Ebola — Liberia, Sierra Leone and Guinea, leaving hundreds of thousands more children vulnerable to the more routine infections, researchers said Thursday. Already, worrisome clusters of measles cases are cropping up. The new study warns that it’s crucial to restart the shots quickly, citing math models that estimate thousands could die if a large enough measles outbreak were to strike before the battered health care system has a chance to recover. Measles epidemics often follow humanitarian crises because “measles is so incredibly contagious,” explained Johns Hopkins University epidemiologist Justin Lessler, who led the study published in the journal Science. “Measles is not the only health threat that has been made worse by the Ebola crisis, and may not even be the most dire, but it is one we can do something about,” he added. The Ebola death milestone announced by the World Health Organization on Thursday had been expected for weeks, even though overall the epidemic is waning. Liberia has begun the 42-day countdown toward being declared Ebola-free if no new cases arise. Guinea and Sierra Leone still are struggling to end new infections, although cases aren’t nearly as high as in the fall. A side effect of hospitals closed in the outbreak zone, and a population frightened of what health care remained, is
“Measles is not the only health threat that has been made worse by the Ebola crisis, and may not even be the most dire, but it is one we can do something about.” Justin Lessler Epidemiologist, Johns Hopkins University that unnecessary deaths occurred from malaria, childbirth and other common conditions. Now the question is whether measles and other vaccine-preventable childhood diseases will be the next post-Ebola problem. In Guinea, UNICEF has reports of 339 suspected measles cases, 27 of them confirmed, agency spokesman Patrick Moser said in New York. Doctors Without Borders said it has reports of 182 suspected measles cases in Liberia, plus some suspected cases in Sierra Leone, too. Health services are slowly resuming in areas where Ebola’s grip has lessened. In Liberia, routine childhood vaccinations are being given in health facilities again, said Tolbert Nyenswah, an assistant health minister. In addition, UNICEF and Doctors Without Borders are working with Liberian officials for a measles and polio vaccination campaign in May that will target more than 600,000 children under age 5, Moser said. Similar campaigns also are planned for Sierra Leone, depending on the continuing Ebola situation. Measles remains a leading killer of children in developing countries, and it’s far more contagious than Ebola.

lecting cash for the Democratic National Committee in Atlanta on Tuesday and flying for California on Thursday to dip his card into Los Angeles’ political ATM. It all highlights that period in a presidency when the White House occupant, no longer running for anything, still looms large as commander in chief, as a party stalwart and as the primary target for the opposition. Yet even as the president casts his shadow over the next presidential election, the jostling potential candidates hang over him as well. “If you look at what’s happened in the last three weeks, the presidential candidates have been on the front pages,” said Dana Perino, who presided over a similar period as press secretary for President George W. Bush. “That just sucks all the oxygen out of the room.” Obama, for one, has shown a willingness to engage the 2016ers. In a town hall meeting hosted by the Spanishlanguage TV network Telemundo two weeks ago, he needled former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush
over Bush’s criticism of Obama’s executive actions on immigration. “I appreciate Mr. Bush being concerned about immigration reform,” Obama said. “I would suggest what he do is talk to the speaker of the House and members of his party.” Earlier this week, he waded into state politics, sharply denouncing Walker for signing legislation in Wisconsin that prohibited mandatory union dues. “Even as its governor claims victory over working Americans, I’d encourage him to try and score a victory for working Americans — by taking meaningful action to raise their wages and offer them the security of paid leave,” Obama said in a statement. In both instances, he signaled he was not going to entirely ignore the 2016 contest or its main players if there was an opportunity to advance his own agenda. “We’re going to engage in this dynamic by being opportunistic ...,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest said in an interview.

Lee’s new novel creates mystery, excitement One month ago, the literary world was set ablaze with the news that many avid readers would have only dreamed of hearing. For the first time Stacy since the Jones p u b l i c a tion of her The 1960 book Dowtowner that has become a classic, it was announced that a new novel by Harper Lee was set for publication this summer. Since the initial appearance of To Kill a Mockingbird, several events set in motion Lee’s notorious reclusiveness, not unlike the character of Arthur “Boo” Radley in the novel. The movie, which has become perhaps as wellloved as the book, was released in 1962. The book, has over time, sold over
30 million copies, at the rate of about one million per year. In the rash of stardom, Lee tired of the publicity, of reporters at her door, especially since they began to take more liberties with what she told them, according to her sister Alice, Harper’s attorney, caretaker, and essentially “gatekeeper,” until her death this past November. Harper Lee, 88, lives in an assisted living facility in her hometown of Monroeville, Alabama. In February, the announcement for the July publication of Go Set a Watchman was made. The book, considered a sequel to Mockingbird, details the 1950s return of an adult Scout to fictional Maycomb, Alabama, alongside her father, the much-loved character of Atticus Finch of the original novel set in the 1930s. The manuscript was sup-
posedly lost and recently discovered while the author’s current lawyer, Tonja Carter, was doing legal work, and she proceeded to take it to Lee for an explanation. Carter refuted claims speculating that she might be manipulating Lee to publish the new novel. Some residents of Monroeville, who know Harper Lee by her first name, Nelle, defend her lucidity, while others attest to her infirmity. Carter said, “[Lee] is a very strong, independent, and wise woman who should be enjoying the discovery of her long lost novel. Instead, she is having to defend her own credibility and decision making.” Alice Lee’s recent death is troubling, in the wake of the announcement of the novel’s publication. Harper Lee had supposedly said, according to
Alice in a documentary called Hey Boo: Harper Lee and To Kill a Mockingbird, that she would never publish another novel. She didn’t want to publish because she felt she would never eclipse the mastery of To Kill a Mockingbird. The documentary wasn’t the only instance of Alice Lee confirming that her sister had no intention of publishing another novel. In 2001, Chicago journalist Marja Mills ventured to Monroeville, sent by her editor to attempt to obtain a newspaper article on the Lee sisters. Mills ended up meeting both of them and eventually took up residence in the small Alabama town near Montgomery. The intended newspaper article developed into a book titled The Mockingbird Next Door: Life with Harper Lee—published in 2014,
but not necessarily with Lee’s full blessing, according to some claims. When Mills inquired of Alice Lee about the possibility of another novel, Alice leaned forward and said, “I’ll put it this way… When you have hit the pinnacle, how would you feel about writing more? Would you feel like you’re competing with yourself?” Despite some reception toward Mills’ endeavor, Harper Lee has certainly not been as receptive to other journalists, especially in the wake of the news regarding publication of the second novel. Alabama journalist Connor Sheets tried relentlessly to reach Lee through her lawyer and publisher. He then reached out to the author by typing her a friendly, gracious letter and dropping it in the mailbox. He expressly asked about
Go Set a Watchman and about speaking with her. His letter was returned to him, a bit crumpled, with the following words penned in black marker at the bottom: “Go away!” It was also signed: “Harper Lee.” Although I would have been disappointed but not surprised, had I been Sheets, I would have framed that letter. Ultimately, we may never know Lee’s true intentions regarding the publication of a second novel, although the facts seem a bit suspect. At any rate, as a unwavering fan of Mockingbird, I cannot help but wait on tenterhooks until July.

After ‘Boyhood,’ Hawke finds unlikely fountain of youth BY JAKE COYLE AP Film Writer
NEW YORK — When Ethan Hawke was young, he was fascinated with Albert Schweitzer, a19thcentury philosopher and missionary who deliberately set aside years of his life for piano playing before he would dedicate himself to helping others. Hawke made a similar pledge to himself about acting. “But 40 came so fast and I didn’t want to give it up at all,” Hawke said in a recent interview. “But I knew there was something to what Schweitzer was saying. You can’t spend your whole life indulging yourself and expect something good to happen.” A midlife crisis is one way to put what Hawke, now 44, was going through. For the first time in his career, he was having performance anxiety. Having long considered
himself an eternal student, Hawke — whose wide range of work (two novels, stage acting, directing) suggest his curious, exploratory nature — wasn’t sure exactly who he was anymore. Hawke, the father of four, was in a place not unlike where his “Boyhood” co-star Patricia Arquette eventually finds herself in that movie: on the other side of life, wondering what comes next. “You start seeing how much of the road is behind you and you start realizing that the next part is probably going to go just as fast,” says Hawke. “What does it mean?” These were the kind of questions rattling around Hawke’s head when he joined what turned out to be a fortuitous dinner party in New York several years ago. There he met his friend’s piano instructor, a gentle old man named Seymour
Bernstein. Though an accomplished pianist whose performances earned raves decades earlier, the 86-year-old Bernstein long ago retired from any public artistic life. Instead, from his humble Upper West Side studio, he has taught the piano and, his students would say, something about life. Bernstein’s view of art for its own sake — amateurism over professionalism — resonated deeply with Hawke. Over the next few years in between other, more glamorous projects, Hawke made a documentary of Bernstein. On Friday, “Seymour: An Introduction” opens in theaters. “I knew when I left that dinner that there’s a lot of people who would enjoy the conversation that I just had,” says Hawke. In his quiet way, Bernstein had reframed Hawke’s anxieties, telling him they should be embraced,
and that the crossroads Hawke felt he was at was really a single, continuous path. “And he did that for me in, like, 45 minutes.” “Seymour: An Introduction” has won raves on the festival circuit, where Bernstein’s warmth and wisdom has struck a nerve with many as he did for Hawke. “Strangers come up to me and say: ‘I don’t know anything about music but everything you say in that film pertains to me,’” says Bernstein. “In Telluride, I was walking on the cobblestone street to lunch and we passed three people. They came over to me and gave me a hug and put their chin against my shoulder and cried. All of them did that!” Though he has long eschewed the spotlight, the monk-like Bernstein is reveling in the attention. “I’m a star!” he chuckles. “I have so many interviews!” Hawke compares
paling around with the newly famous Bernstein to “taking Greta Garbo to the mall.” In the film, Bernstein is seen giving lessons and speaking about his career and music. “Music is not just a means of expression for me,” he says. “I have learned to pattern my life after the harmony of music: the logic of it, the emotional import of it, the intellectual notation of it, the physical requirements of making it sound on the piano. It is a discipline that I then directed into everything that I do. It became a means of life for me.” One reason Hawke wanted to make the movie, he says, “was simply to have an excuse to be near him.” He was drawn to Bernstein’s bubbling, unsullied joyfulness in his art. “So many people, even some of the most widely successful people in my
profession that I’ve met, sometimes seem eroded by bitterness and disappointment,” Hawke says. “And I’ve been trying to figure that out: So if you fail you lose and if you win you lose?” Hawke has a willing openness in talking about art and himself that may strike the more cynical as pretentious. But in person, he comes across as vibrantly earnest, eager for personal connection. Bernstein says Hawke has rediscovered his identity. “It took about three years, but now he knows that the actor, the husband and the father are all the same person,” says Bernstein. “He thought: Which one is the real Ethan? They’re all the same.” “Something switched,” agrees Hawke. “Instead of being a really old young person, I feel like a really young old person. And I’m happier here.”
Cemetery owner seeks plea deal Smart’s lover paroled in murder BY ADRIAN SAINZ Associated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A plea agreement could be reached as early as Friday in the case of a Tennessee cemetery owner accused of burying multiple bodies in the same grave. Defense attorney Coleman Garrett said Thursday he is negotiating a plea deal with prosecutors for his client, Jemar Lambert. At Garrett’s request, Shelby County Criminal Court Judge Lee Coffee set a Friday hearing to discuss their progress. Lambert owns Galilee Memorial Gardens in Bartlett, a suburb of Memphis. He was indicted in 2013 on a theft of property charge for burying bodies on land that doesn’t belong to the cemetery. Lambert, 39, also is accused in a separate case of burying the remains of three people in the same grave. He was arrested in January 2014 on charges of theft and abuse of a corpse, but he has yet to be formally indicted. Garrett said the deal would involve both cases and could include a sentence of eight to 10 years in prison in return for a guilty plea. “I’m optimistic that we can present a proposal that is acceptable,” Garrett told the judge. Garrett’s appearance before the judge came after Lambert, who had been out of jail on $10,000 bond, was arrested in court for violating the terms of his release by testing positive for marijuana. Coffee revoked Lambert’s bond and ordered
him held in jail for failing the random drug test. “I’m very disappointed in you,” Coffee told Lambert. Garrett had no defense for Lambert’s violation. “He did something stupid,” the lawyer said. In addition to the criminal charges, Lambert also is being sued by a class of more than 500 relatives of people buried at the cemetery. The lawsuit contends Galilee stacked multiple caskets in single burial plots, crushed caskets in order to fit more caskets into plots, misplaced remains and buried bodies on neighboring property without authori-
zation. The suit also names as defendants several funeral homes, saying they should have known the cemetery was conducting improper burials. The Tennessee Department of Commerce and Insurance says Lambert kept burying bodies at the cemetery for two years after his registration expired on Dec. 31, 2010. Relatives of three people buried at the cemetery have said they don’t know where their loved ones’ remains are located because they were not allowed to see the caskets being lowered into the ground.

CONCORD, N.H. — The triggerman in the Pamela Smart murder trial was granted parole Thursday, nearly 25 years after he killed his school instructor’s husband and launched a global spectacle packed with lurid details of sex and manipulation. William Flynn was 16-year-old “Billy” in 1990 when he and three teenage friends carried out what prosecutors said was Pamela Smart’s plot to murder Gregg Smart. Flynn pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to 28 years to life in prison, minus time served before trial. A judge in 2008 reduced his sentence by three years to credit him for good behavior in prison. The trial was a media circus and one of the first high-profile cases about a sexual affair between an instructor and student. It inspired the Joyce Maynard novel “To
Die For,” which in turn was made into a movie starring Nicole Kidman. “It’s your birthday,” said Donna Sytek, chairwoman of the three-person state board. “We’re granting you the privilege of parole.” The board granted Flynn parole on his first attempt Thursday, his 41st birthday. He has been in a Maine prison and participated in the hearing by telephone, telling the board that he’d always be haunted by the killing. “I will always feel terrible about what happened 25 years ago,” he said. “Parole will not change that.” Pamela Smart, who was 22 when her husband was killed, was convicted of being an accomplice to first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison without the chance of parole. She admitted seducing the boy but said she didn’t plan her husband’s murder.

Financial analysts anticipate that Ann slipped into the red in the fourth quarter. The clothing chain operator, whose brands include Ann Taylor and Loft, has struggled with weak traffic and sliding sales. Ann’s sales in the quarter ended Nov. 1 were also hurt by product shipment delays related to labor uncertainty at West Coast ports. The chain reports its latest quarterly results today.
The Labor Department reports its producer price index for February today. The index, which measures the prices that producers receive for their goods and services before they reach the consumer, fell 0.8 percent in January. That marked the index’s biggest drop in more than five years and its third monthly decline in a row, reflecting a steep drop in energy prices.

Sister asks how to talk to her sister WIZARD OF ID

Dear Annie: My sister and I traveled independently to Nebraska in order to care for our mother after she was hospitalized. We were there for two months, taking turns sleeping on an air mattress by her bed. Mom finally was well enough to travel back to my home so I could care for her here. During the time we spent in Nebraska, my sister and I went through Mom’s apartment, getting rid of things and sorting through pictures and other stuff. The second night that I slept by Mom’s bedside, my sister suggested I stay there and she’d sleep on the sofa. I agreed because I trusted her. My mistake. While I was in Mom’s bedroom, my sister went through Mom’s stuff, put things she wanted into boxes and sealed them. When I noticed the new boxes, she said she had just rearranged things to fit better. I’m pretty sure she took several pictures that I wanted, along with a few other items. She denies this and says I don’t know what I am talking about. I have no way to prove what she did, but those items have never turned up, and it’s been two years. Mom passed away recently, and now I have to
Annie’s Mailbox see my sister at Mom’s memorial service. She’s going to act like nothing happened. I am so hurt by what she did. How can I not scream out what a liar she is? -Still Angry Dear Angry: Our condolences on your loss. A memorial service is not the best place to confront your sister, who will deny your accusations in any event. You could snub her, being polite and friendly to others but decidedly cool to her. You also could simply ask her, “When you get a chance, could you please send me copies of any photographs of Mom that you have? I miss her.” And leave it at that.
is excited to see these people. I say a leopard never changes its spots. These people barely tolerated me when I first met them. Please advise me what to do about this. -- Not a Spotted Leopard Dear Leopard: It’s been 20 years. Surely you have changed in that time. Why wouldn’t they? You might discover that they have changed just enough that you can find common ground. These people are important to your husband. Instead of approaching this with dread, please open yourself up to the possibility that it will be better than you think. And if not, do what many others in your situation do: let your husband see them without you. But give it your best shot. Your husband will appreciate it.

Old world tradition clashes with new world diet change Abigail Van Buren Dear Abby
D E A R ABBY: I have been dating my boyfriend, Mike, for about two years, and things are going great. During this time, I have become very close with his
family. Both of his parents came to the United States from Europe, and with their culture comes his mother’s traditional cooking and the need to make sure everyone’s bellies are full. I have always enjoyed her food; however, in the last six months I have become a vegetarian. Out of courtesy for her, I have been making sure to eat at home before spending time at Mike’s house. I can see that his mother feels a bit put off because I have been eating less of her food, but I feel it would be rude to ask her for a separate meal to accommodate my diet. What should I do? -NERVOUS IN NEW ENGLAND DEAR NERVOUS: Your boyfriend’s mother may be put off because she doesn’t understand why you seem to be enjoying her cooking less. If you and Mike have been seeing each other for two years,
you and his mother should be able to have an honest conversation with each other. TELL her you enjoy her cooking, but that you have changed your diet and no longer eat meat, etc. If she volunteers to prepare something else for you, it would be gracious of her. However, if she doesn’t, I agree that it would be rude to ask her to do so. DEAR ABBY: My husband and I were close friends with another couple, seeing them once or twice a week. Then we had to move away from our hometown because of a job opportunity. We tried to stay in touch, but predictably were not as close as when we were neighbors. A few months ago, we were able to move back home, and we have been trying to revive the friendship. We have invited them to dinner three times only to be told: “We have commitments this week, and next week is crazy at work. Let’s try to get together next month when things calm down.” But there was no follow-up. They do travel a lot, have small children and demanding jobs, so it’s hard to know if the delays are real or if they aren’t interested in being friends any longer. How much do we try before feeling we’re annoying them
and giving up? -- BACK HOME IN OHIO DEAR BACK HOME: Do as your friends suggested and give them a call in a month or six weeks. If they are still unavailable, say, “OK. Then the ball is in your court,” and see if they follow up. And if they don’t, then realize it’s time to give up. When you moved away, they moved on. DEAR ABBY: As a Valentine surprise, my boyfriend of two years presented me with a donation he had made in my name to his favorite charity. I thought it was impersonal and it hurt my feelings. Am I wrong to think he really doesn’t care much for me? -ROSE-LESS IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR ROSE-LESS: Let me put it this way, your boyfriend isn’t very good when it comes to gift selection. Many men aren’t. But more important than candy or flowers is how he treats you the other 364 days of the year, and that’s how you should judge him. 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). Integrate your talents instead of choosing between them. Anyone who tries to limit your activities isn’t being a friend right now, because you have the ability to do several things at once. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There is no success without failure. No one feels good without the contrast of feeling bad. If you keep your attitude on track with the positive, the contrasts in this day will only make you stronger. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You build your reputation with each action you take. Little by little, day by day, your legacy is coming together. Tonight, someone new to your situation will give you a fresh point of view. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You don’t want to “cry wolf,” and yet, in order to truly understand the strength of your support system, you have to put it to the test. Implement some version of a fire alarm.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Follow an orderly process, and you’ll be lucky. It will require more preparation than you think. In fact, most of the day will be spent in preparation for something that will unfold in less than an hour. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Heed the physical manifestation of hesitancy: a tightness in the throat and chest and/or a heaviness in the arms. While your ambition tries to push you forward, your intuition may hold you back. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). We all think things that should not be said out loud, but some people haven’t developed the social filter necessary to keep conversation polite. Luckily, your friends have you to keep them in check. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You love your family today, and you’ll treat most people you meet like they are a part of it. Domestic projects will be lucky, as will anything to do with feed-
ing your people. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). What’s in your mind cannot be observed by anyone else, and today that’s a good thing, because you’re working on what truly belongs to you. Don’t share it. The world isn’t ready for it yet. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Wishes are not goals, but if you add a timeline, they will be. Tonight features an unexplainable spiritual bond. In the upcoming weeks, you’ll become more and more convinced that you belong together. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Your enthusiasm is catching. Your joy needs no qualifiers. It will open people up and make them feel like unleashing their own natural exuberance. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll get better results when you ease up on yourself. Approve of yourself with that same generous approval you so readily give to others. Tonight will bring the end of a struggle.

Tennessee Vols rally late, beat Vanderbilt by 6 BY TERESA M. WALKER AP Sports Writer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Josh Richardson scored 15 of his 22 points in the second half, and Tennessee beat Vanderbilt 67-61 Thursday night in the second round of the Southeastern Conference tournament. These in-state rivals hadn’t played each other in the tournament since 1987 with Tennessee winning that game, and they split the first two games in league play winning on each other’s home court this season. No. 10 seed Tennessee (16-15) kept its season alive by finishing the game on a 20-2 run started with 6:18 left after trailing 59-47. The Vols will play No. 21 Arkansas on Friday night in the quarterfinals. Robert Hubbs matched his careerhigh with 16 points for Tennessee, and Devon Baulkman had 12. Vanderbilt (19-13) snapped a fivegame winning streak. The Commodores hit only one of their final 10 shots and turned it over five times down the stretch. Damian Jones scored 20 points and grabbed 15 rebounds for Vandy.
Kentucky faces Florida in SEC tournament BY GARY B. GRAVES AP Sports Writer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Top-ranked Kentucky has had extra time to recharge with a bye through the first two rounds of the Southeastern Conference tournament. The Wildcats will open the postseason hoping that fresh legs will carry them to an SEC title. The top-seeded Wildcats (31-0) open the tournament Friday against Florida (16-16) in what they hope is the first of three games in three days. Add in next weekend’s NCAA Tournament, and the schedule could possibly be five games in eight days. As much as Kentucky relished the rest, players look forward to the most challenging part of the season that will determine if they make history as the school’s first undefeated national champion. “Now, it’s do or die, it’s win or go home, just have a lot of fun doing it,” junior 7-footer Willie Cauley-Stein said this week. “This is the funnest time of the year. From the first workout, now it’s all about business. That’s what you play for.” As easy as the Wildcats have made it look at times this season, coach John Calipari quickly notes that now is the time for his team to up their games individually and collectively against opponents out to derail their quest. Florida (16-16) is the first SEC nemesis to take a shot at the Wildcats. The Gators overcame a slow start to beat Alabama 69-61 on Thursday with nine 3-pointers on 29 attempts a 35-24 rebounding edge and just six turnovers. They’re back at full strength Please see KENTUCKY | 13A

Warriors fall to defending champs BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
JACKSON — You have to knock down shots and protect the ball when facing the defending champions. Corinth did neither, especially after opening up a ninepoint lead late in the opening quarter. McComb (30-1) outscored Corinth 15-5 in the second quarter, scoring 19 of 21 points over a nine-minute span overall, and earned a date Saturday against Quitman with a 59-49 win over the Warriors in the Class 4A boys’ semifinal on Thursday. Corinth (25-8) jumped out to a 5-0 advantage, and trailed for just 35 seconds in the opening period. Seven points by Antares Gwyn and a pair of 3-pointers by Kendall Stafford pushed Corinth out to a 17-12 lead after one quarter. The Warriors were 7-of-14 from the field in the first eight minutes, leading by nine at the 1:06 mark. That would be the best the Warriors would have it in trying to advance to their 12th championship game in 17 State Tournament appearances. A 15-5 advantage in the second quarter, coupled with a 4-0 spurt the final 35 seconds of the first frame, turned the game by 14 points. McComb knotted the game at 19-19 with its third 3-ball of the afternoon and took the lead for good on its fourth with 3:25 left in the half. Corinth was 1-of-7 from the floor with seven turnovers in the second quarter before Javen Morrison knocked down a 3-pointer right at the buzzer. Gwyn, who recorded a double-double that included a game-high 20 points, and Morrison provided the lone CHS buckets in the second -6:10 apart. McComb led 27-22 at the break. Stafford, who added 14 in

heading to the final quarter. After managing just 14 points in the middle quarters, Corinth responded with 18 in the final session. Corinth trailed by 16 with
4:17 left. Gwyn, who had 10 in the fourth, scored eight straight for CHS and Tada Stricklen’s 3-pointer in the final seconds set the margin at an even 10 points.
Jimmy Graham excited about trade to Seattle BY TIM BOOTH AP Sports Writer
Jimmy Graham’s hobby is flying small planes. So after completing his morning workout earlier this week he decided to fly a six-seater to a Florida beach for lunch. While there, New Orleans coach Sean Payton called and informed Graham his next destination was on the opposite side of the country. A shock for the perennial Pro Bowl tight end in not just being traded, but being dealt to the two-time defending NFC champions? You bet. “Maybe not even a month ago, I was in the city and saw Mickey (Loomis) and was talking about next sea-
son with Mickey,” Graham said in a conference call with Seattle-area media on Thursday. “Even when the season ended, just talking with the coaches, talking about what we’re going to do, what we’re going to work on, so it was definitely out of left field.” Graham became the latest option in the Seattle Seahawks offense when he was acquired on Tuesday along with a fourth-round draft pick in exchange for center Max Unger and Seattle’s firstround pick. On a day when free agency was supposed to be the focus, the deal for one of the most prolific tight ends in football upstaged everything else.
Graham was in Seattle on Wednesday and passed his physical but the trade won’t be finalized until Unger takes his physical with the Saints, expected next week. He’ll be leaving behind the relationship he developed since he arrived in the NFL with New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees, but is already looking ahead to the next chapter and what he could add to go along with Russell Wilson, Marshawn Lynch and the rest of Seattle’s offense. “Marshawn, you have to put guys in the box and you have to bring safeties down,” Graham said. “When you’re playing cover zero there are a
lot of one-on-ones, there are a lot of opportunities down the field, there are a lot of opportunities in that middle section where you have guys in these one-on-one matchups and I think eventually teams won’t be able to do that. You won’t be able to go cover zero to stop the run and I think I can help open that up. And then in the red zone, that’s something I’ve always been good at.” Not surprisingly, Wilson was the first Seahawks player to reach out to Graham after the trade. Graham said he’ll go through the same process with Wilson that he did with Brees in developing their passing game relationship.
Women’s mid-majors could be poised for breakthrough BY STEVE MEGARGEE AP Sports Writer
Mid-major women’s basketball programs historically have much less success in the NCAA Tournament than their counterparts on the men’s side. Perhaps this is the year that changes. The latest Top 25 includes four mid-majors ranked 20th or higher: No. 13 Princeton, No. 17 Chattanooga, No. 19 George Washington and No.
20 Florida Gulf Coast. Gonzaga, Green Bay, James Madison and Western Kentucky also have appeared in the Top 25 this season. “We just want to win and want to prove to people we can compete in March,” said Princeton guard Blake Dietrick. All mid-majors share her sentiment, but few have been able to make a tournament run. Only five schools from out-
side the Southeastern Conference, Atlantic Coast Conference, Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12, Big East or the American Athletic Conference have reached the regional semifinals over the last four years: Gonzaga in 2011 and 2012, Green Bay in 2011, St. Bonaventure in 2012, Delaware in 2013 and BYU in 2014. The lone regional finalist was Gonzaga in 2011. On the men’s side, where there seems to be more par-
ity, five teams from outside those conferences advanced to the regional semifinals in 2011 alone, with Butler reaching the national championship game that year as a Horizon League member and VCU getting to the Final Four out of the Colonial Athletic Association. The last women’s mid-major to reach a Final Four was Southwest Missouri State in 2001. Please see POISED |13A
Serena ends 14-year boycott with return to Indian Wells BY BETH HARRIS AP Sports Writer
INDIAN WELLS, Calif. — Serena Williams returned to the BNP Paribas Open on Thursday, ending a 14-year personal boycott of the $5 million tournament that began when she was booed as a teenager on her way to winning the title in 2001. Williams took questions for 10 minutes a day before the world’s top-ranked women’s player is to compete in her
first match. She never thought she would return to the two-week tournament in the Southern California desert. She even stayed in Los Angeles an extra day because she wasn’t yet ready to start the journey. “I was a little nervous to come out here,” she said. “In the beginning, I was like, ‘What was I thinking?’ I kind of had to overcome that hurdle.” Earlier in the day, Williams
practiced with security on hand to keep fans and media away. She has played just one Fed Cup match since winning the Australian Open in January. Last month, Williams announced her change of heart toward the tournament in a column for Time.com. She said Thursday she was nervous informing her parents about her decision. She said they were both supportive, with her father Richard
telling her “it would be a big mistake if I didn’t go back. I thought that was really admirable.” Now 33, Williams is deep into a career that boasts a gaudy resume: 19 Grand Slam singles titles, the world’s No. 1 ranking, and millions of dollars in prize money and endorsements earned. In 2001, she was just 19 and matches between Serena and Please see SERENA | 13A

The mid-majors currently in the Top 25 have the ability to change that. Princeton and Florida Gulf Coast feature 3-point attacks that can wreak havoc on any team. Princeton leads the nation in 3-point percentage (.406). Florida Gulf Coast entered the week ranked third nationally in 3-pointers per game (9.8). Princeton also already has dealt with tournament-style pressure and attention because of its status as the nation’s lone unbeaten women’s team. “When you play in a conference that isn’t on TV every night and doesn’t have press conferences every week... the NCAA Tournament
can be a distraction because of all the wonderful media requests and people wanting to share your story,� Princeton coach Courtney Banghart said. “This is a team that’s been sharing its story for weeks. I think it’s absolutely a major help.� Princeton and Chattanooga both play the type of defense that should make them competitive, even if their shots aren’t falling. Princeton ranks second nationally in fieldgoal percentage defense (.333), and Chattanooga is second in scoring defense (50.4). Chattanooga, which has won 25 straight, won’t be easily intimidated. The Mocs beat Tennessee and Stanford when both were ranked in the top 10.

older sister Venus were still a novelty. Fans were tantalized by the prospect of two siblings dueling in a semifinal. When Venus pulled out of the match 20 minutes before the start with tendinitis, boos rained down on stadium court, startling Serena. She was offended by later accusations that the sisters’ matches were fixed by Richard. “I think everyone knows that’s not necessarily a true statement. But I guess you do have to ask those questions,� Williams said. “I have had nothing but integrity for my whole career.� Serena went on to win the final against Kim Clijsters. Her father later said he heard racial slurs in the crowd. “He’s been through some things when he was growing up as a young man,� she said. “It was a really emotional time for me when I was talking to him (about returning).� Williams recalled praying during the final, when she fell behind in the first set. “I said, ‘I don’t want
to win this match. I just want to get through this moment,’� she said. Williams learned to play tennis about two hours and a world away in Compton, California, a crime-riddled suburb of Los Angeles. She won her first pro match at the Indian Wells tournament, playing doubles with Venus in 1997. Her victory over Steffi Graf in the 1999 singles final was her first big title. Williams has said her decision to return was influenced partly by a film about Nelson Mandela and his dedication to reconciliation. “In order to forgive you have to be able to really let go of everything,� she said. “I went through something that wasn’t the best for me. Trying to get over those nerves of coming back and how will I feel and what’s it going to be like. I have to experience that. When you do forgive and you do try to let go, you have to let a lot of those emotions go as well.� Venus Williams has chosen not to play in the tournament, but Serena said her sister encouraged her to come back.

with Michael Frazier II and Dorian FinneySmith (23 points, 11 rebounds) and hungry to earn an NCAA bid. “Do you have a team that is really going to fight until the bitter end?� Calipari asked. “You’re seeing a lot of those kinds of games. My concern is my team and no one else. I just want my team to play at their best. If that’s not good enough we’ll go back and get ready for the seeding.� Kentucky faced that same urgency last spring as its heralded eightman freshman class stumbled into the postseason unranked and uncertain about their NCAA Tournament prospects. The Wildcats emerged from the SEC tournament with a new resolve after losing by a point to top-seeded Florida in the title game and went on to reach the NCAA final. As the team to beat since the beginning of the season, the coach is emphasizing not letting up now, even in the conference tournament. Certainly, there’s room for improvement even after last week’s 6750 win over Florida that completed Kentucky’s perfect regular season. The Gators played the Wildcats close until
Kentucky finished with a 20-9 run over the final 101⠄2 minutes. The Wildcats now get the Gators for the second time in a week and the third time this season. The previous games have been competitive, so they know it’s no time to rest on past accomplishments with the stakes much higher. “It just comes down to executing,� freshman guard Devin Booker said. “I’m sure they (the Gators) still have that loss on their heads, so I feel like they’re going to come out harder.�

WASHINGTON — Fake IRS agents have targeted more than 366,000 people with harassing phone calls demanding payments and threatening jail in the largest scam of its kind in the history of the agency, a federal investigator said Thursday. More than 3,000 people have fallen for the ruse since 2013, said Timothy Camus, a Treasury deputy inspector general for tax administration. They were conned out of a total of $15.5 million. The scam has claimed victims in almost every state, Camus said. One unidentified victim lost more than $500,000. “The criminals do not discriminate. They are calling people everywhere, of all income levels and backgrounds,� Camus told the Senate Finance Committee at a hearing. “The callers often warned the victims that if they hung up, local police would come to their homes to arrest them.� The scam is so widespread that investigators believe there is more than one group of perpetrators, including some overseas. Camus said even he received a call from one of the scammers at his home on a Saturday. He said he had a stern message for the caller: “Your day will come.� Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., said he got a similar call, but realized it wasn’t a real IRS agent. “It was a very convincing, convincing phone call,� Isakson said. So far, two people in Florida have been arrested, Camus said. They were accused of being part of a scam that involved people
in call centers in India contacting U.S. taxpayers and pretending to be IRS agents. “These criminal acts are perpetrated by thieves hiding behind telephone lines and computers, preying on honest taxpayers and robbing the Treasury of tens of billions of dollars every year,� said Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, chairman of the Senate Finance Committee. “Taxpayers must be more aware of the risks and better protected from attack and these criminals must be found and brought to justice.� The IRS and the inspector general’s office started warning taxpayers about the scam a year ago, and it has since ballooned. This year, it tops the IRS list of “Dirty Dozen� tax scams. Tax scams often increase during tax filing season, and with millions of Americans preparing their returns ahead of the April 15 deadline, the IRS is seeing many cases of identity theft and refund fraud. In recent years the IRS has stepped up efforts to detect large numbers of tax refunds going to the same address or bank account. Using computer filters, the agency identified more than 517,000 suspicious returns and blocked $3.1 billion in fraudulent returns, as of October 2014, Camus said in his testimony. In 2012, the IRS started working more closely with U.S. attorneys’ offices around the country to combat tax refund fraud by people using stole identities, said Caroline Ciraolo, acting assistant attorney general for the Justice Department’s tax division. Since then, the tax division has opened nearly 1,000 investiga-
tions and brought prosecutions against more than 1,400 people, Ciraolo told the Senate Finance Committee hearing. “Given the sophistication of this criminal activity and the fact that a lot of it comes from overseas, this looks to me like an emerging type of organized crime,� said Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon, the top Democrat on the Finance Committee. The inspector general’s office started receiving complaints about the telephone scam in 2013. Immigrants were the primary target early on, the IG’s office said. But the scam has since become more widespread. As part of the telephone scam, fake IRS agents call taxpayers, claim they owe taxes, and demand payment using a prepaid debit card or a wire transfer. Those who refuse are threatened with arrest, deportation or loss of a business or driver’s license, Camus said. The callers can manipulate caller ID to make it look like they are calling from an IRS phone number. They might even know the last four digits of the taxpayer’s Social Security number, Camus said. They request prepaid debit cards because they are harder to trace than bank cards. Prepaid debit cards are different from bank cards because they are not connected to a bank account. Instead, consumers buy the cards at stores, and use them just like a bank card, until the money runs out or they add more. Real IRS agents usually contact people first by mail, Camus said. And they never demand payment by debit card, credit card or wire transfer.

God will find you I remember a story of a young atheist who took a theology of faith course in a northern university. T h i s young man Gary was lookfor God Andrews ing and on the Devotionals last day of class he asked his professor if he will ever find him. The professor answered, “No, but I am absolutely certain He will find you.” The young man went on about his life and quit searching for God. At the age of 24 he was diagnosed with terminal cancer which changed his mode of thinking. He revisited his college professor and told him that God had found him. The young man decided he really didn’t care anything about God and decided that he would do something productive with his life. He told his professor that it is an essential sadness to go through life without loving. He also realized that it would be equally sad if he left this world without telling those he loved that he loved them.
How many of us today have this same story? How trivial it is for us to hold a grudge against family members, friends, or others we don’t even know without talking with these people. Most of the time the differences we have are going to be very insignificant and over some petty misspoken words or deeds. The young man related to his professor that the professor’s words to him were correct. He told him that even though he quit searching for God; God found him. He realized that the surest way of finding God is not to make Him a private possession, a problem solver, or an instant consolation in time of need, but rather by opening to love. When we love we find a life that is more beautiful that eyes have ever seen, ears have ever heard, or the mind ever imagined. Our most precious possession that we can ever have, and it is a free gift, is the Saving Grace of Jesus Christ. All of us need to remember that God is love! Along these same lines we need to understand that the most destructive habit we can have is to worry. Our greatest joy is

giving; our greatest loss is self-respect and our most satisfying work is helping others. The greatest problem for us to overcome is fear and the worst thing to be without is hope. Our greatest asset is faith and the most contagious spirit is enthusiasm. Our most beautiful attire is a smile, our most prized possession is integrity, and our most powerful channel of communication is prayer. Just as God found the young man with a terrible cancer, the man changed his thoughts and lifestyle from one of no hope to one of love. Love is what makes the world go round and the quicker we realize this the more comfortable we will be with our own lifestyle.

Zoo trip brings hope spring is near On Wednesday of this week, I enjoyed the Memphis Zoo with our four spring-hungry grandchildren. T h e only day of “spring b r e a k ” with a low chance of rain foreLora Ann cast was a Huff great day to see all the Back Porch d i f f e r e n t species of animals God chose to create. It was a very good day! One optimistic sign that encouraged all of us was the number of robins we saw as we visited the various areas. I told the kids the robins were a sure sign spring is almost here – and I hope I’m right. We do know the flowers and trees will be bursting forth very soon as they proclaim the arrival of another springtime. After the snow and ice, we look forward to the buttercups, pink thrift, peonies, iris, and roses. Easter is just around the corner and new life will shine through in all creation. After being with the grandkids Wednesday and watching and listening to them as they observed the various zoo animals and interacted with some
monkeys through a glass window, I was reminded of some stories a friend passed along to me a few years ago. I’ve shared some of them in the past but they’re worthy of another read and smile. Three-year-old Reese prayed, “Our Father, Who does art in heaven, Harold is His name. Amen.” Another little boy was overheard praying: “Lord, if you can’t make me a better boy, don’t worry about it. I’m having a real good time like I am.” One particular fouryear-old prayed, “And forgive us our trash baskets as we forgive those who put trash in our baskets.” After the dedication of his baby brother in church, Jason sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car. His father asked him three times what was wrong. Finally, the boy answered, “That preacher said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home, and I want to stay with you guys.” A Sunday School teacher asked her children as they were on the way to worship service, “And why is it necessary to be quiet in church?” One bright little girl replied, “Because people are sleeping!” A mother was preparing pancakes for her sons,
Kevin 5 and Ryan 3. As you might guess, the boys began to argue over who would get the first pancake. Their mother saw the opportunity for a moral lesson. “If Jesus were sitting here, He would say, ‘Let my brother have the first pancake, I can wait.’” Kevin turned to his younger brother and said, “Ryan, you can be Jesus!” A wife invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to their six-year-old daughter and said, “Would you like to say the blessing?” “I wouldn’t know what to say,” the little girl replied. “Just say what you hear Mommy say,” the lady answered. The sweet girl bowed her head and said, “Lord, why on earth did I invite all these people to dinner?” A little girl was offered an apple, but remembering the story of Adam and Eve, she replied, “I don’t want one – I don’t want to make God sad.” …Aren’t kids special? As spring slowly arrives, be sure to take time to enjoy the new life in nature and very sure to enjoy the children. They’re always as fresh as spring and have ideas and insights we might never think of! (Lora Ann Huff is a Wenasoga resident and Daily Corinthian columnist.)
