“Beware of who you are doing business with,” warned the Mississippi Better Business Bureau after being contacted by a couple from Colorado over a $4,500 dispute with a Jackson company.

According to the BBB, the couple contacted their timeshare company in Mexico to inquire about selling the property. They were contacted shortly after by a representative at Vector Marketing Solutions.

The company claimed they had already sold the couples

timeshare for them and needed them to wire $4,500 for closing costs.

After doing so, they were told they would then need to pay an additional $15, 750 dollars for Mexican taxes.

The couple felt that something was amiss and decided to cancel the deal. A representative advised them to look for a full refund within two weeks.

Three weeks passed and after repeated attempts to contact the company failed, the couple filed a formal complaint with Please see SCAM | 2A

Walk to raise funds for Crossroads Museum sells Easter baskets Oasis Medical Center

Oasis Medical Center is asking the public to lace up its walking shoes.

In effort to raise proceeds for the pregnancy center’s medical and ministry services, OMC is hosting its annual Walk for Life on April 5 at Crossroads Regional Park.

Walk for Life is slated to begin at 9 a.m. Check-in for the annual event is set for 8:30 a.m.

“This would be a great way for people to start their weekend,” said Oasis Medical Center Executive Director Martha Jobe. “They could begin with the Walk for Life then go enjoy the Chili Cook-Off, Green Market and Home Tour … walkers could easily be home by 10:30 a.m. and still have time to enjoy

other activities.”

Local supporters Jett and Anne Wilson have taken part in the event since 1995.

“Our presence at the walk shows our support for Oasis Medical Center,” said Anne Wilson. “It is encouraging to attend with others from the community and area churches.”

Area church groups and all ages of walkers are encouraged to get involved. The three top walking teams from last year included Oakland Baptist Church, Cornerstone Christian Fellowship and Eagle Home School.

Individuals who collect $200 or more in pledges can receive a T-shirt, bistro mug or sporty water bottle. The top individual

The Crossroads Museum is banking on those kind of stuffed animals to raise funds for the facility at the Historic Corinth Depot. A scented stuffed animal comes in each Easter basket the museum is selling in time for the holiday.

“We throughout this would be a good fundraiser for the museum,” said executive director Brandy Steen. “Our goal in to sell 20 baskets.”

Each special basket will contain either a rabbit, turtle, owl or bear stuffed animal, stuffed animal scent pack, king-size candy bar, Crossroads Museum color changing ruler, choice of boy or girl toy, bottle of bubbles and an Easter egg with a surprise inside.

Hernando may vote on higher sales tax The Associated Press

HERNANDO — The Mississippi House has sent a bill to Gov. Phil Bryant that calls for an election to let Hernando voters to decide whether to raise the sales tax on hotels, motels and restaurants by 2 percent to help finance city parks.

Hernando officials had asked for the legislation, which says that at least 60 percent of voters participating in an as-yet-determined election must approve before the higher tax goes into effect.

The bill provides that proceeds from the 2 percent tax will promote tourism and parks and recreation in Hernando.

Hernando Mayor Chip Johnson said money generated by the tax, should voters decide to implement it, would go to many uses within the Parks Department. “Quite frankly the board

has not discussed what they would spend it on,� Johnson said. “We just know we have a lot of needs for our parks. “The thing that I’m most pleased about personally is the Legislature has given us the ability for the citizens to do something they want to do.�

Meanwhile, legislation to extend Southaven’s “A Penny for Your Parks� one-cent restaurant sales tax is also on its way Bryant.

The bill specifies that revenue collected from the tax would be used “to promote tourism, parks and recreation.�

Southaven voters approved the one-cent sales tax in 2010, but it was to expire on July 1. The bill will extend the tax until July 1, 2017.

Southaven began collecting the tax, which added a 3 percent tax on restaurant food and drink, in 2012.

SCAM CONTINUED FROM 1A

the BBB Serving Mississippi.

BBB called to verify the company’s address after the complaint was returned to them as undeliverable. They sent out an investigator to visit the business, only to find the location was non-existent. “We made several calls to Vector Marketing Solutions at 204 E. Capitol Street in Jackson, Miss. and they were evasive about their location,� said President/CEO of the BBB Serving Mississippi, John O’Hara. “We were told we needed to have a sales representative contact us first, but still couldn’t explain where their office was.�

In response to the incident, BBB offered the following advice for selling a timeshare. ■Don’t agree to anything over the phone. Before making a decision take time to think it over.

Don’t be pressured by salespersons. Ask the representative to send you details in writing. ■Be cautious of upfront fees.

Never agree to pay any fees until you have a contract and have completed your research and independent verification of the

business. Also, never wire money for a deal. The money should come to you. ■Be aware of the “Balloon Strategy�. Dishonest timeshare resellers may start with an outrageous fee and then reduce it to a more appealing number, to lure the seller to pay. ■It is important to know the process. Inexperienced timeshare sellers can be easily misled.

Before doing business with a broker know the approximate value of what you own. Find out if the agent’s fees and marketing practices are consistent with practices of other agencies. To ensure the proper value of your property BBB suggests using a timeshare appraisal service. To do this for U.S. based timeshares, you’ll need to research the company with the real Estate Commission in the state in which your timeshare property is located. The Federal Trade Commission also has helpful tips for timeshare buyers and sellers. ■Be sure to check licensing requirements. Ask if the resellers agents are licensed to sell real estate where your timeshare is located. This can also be verified by the state’s real estate

commission. Ask for and check references. ■Don’t sign the contract if the deal isn’t what you expected. Before signing the contract, confirm that it explains the services of the broker, the costs and when they must be paid, a specified length of time to sell the timeshare, guarantees, refunds and who is accountable for the sale. If the deal isn’t what you expected or wanted, discuss changes or find another reseller. ■Make sure the Business is trustworthy. Avoid any company that fails to provide a street address and alternate contact information. A UPS or post office box is not enough. Beware of “look-alike� company names.

Check out bbb.org for warnings and business reviews verify the address with a mapping service, property manager and the licensing authority. ■Remember the “too good to be true� rule. Trust your gut. If it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

The BBB warning is especially poignant since Spring Break season is here and vacationers head to their timeshares or look into buying or selling properties.

Local/State Big Hill Pond State Park will offer guided hikes

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Warmer weather is providing individuals the chance to get out and enjoy some of the area’s natural beauty.

Big Hill Pond State Park is taking advantage of the recent spring-like temperatures by offering a series of guided hikes on March 22.

Those interested in the hikes will meet park rangers at 9 a.m. go a three-mile hike along the Turkey Call Trail.

During the hike, rangers will cover the history and ecology of the park. “We are excited to welcome the spring season with hikes at each of our great parks,� Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Deputy Commissioner Brock Hill said. “These

hikes are a great way to get outside, exercise and enjoy nature with friends and family.�

Big Hill Pond State Park got its name from the 35-acre Big Hill Pond which was created in 1853 when soil was scooped from a borrow pit to build a levee across the Tuscumbia and Cypress Creek bottoms for the Memphis to Charleston Railroad.

The park’s 5,000 acres of timberland and hardwood bottom land is sparsely inhabited making it resemble a wilderness.

The park is home to 30 miles of overnight and day use trails consisting of four backpack trail shelters and five miles of hiking trail and two trail shelters lie south of the railroad within a hunting area.

The Turkey Call Trail

is just one of nine trails which can be hiked at Big Hill Pond. Other trails include: Dry Ridge, 5.5 miles; Azalea Springs Day Loop, 2.6 miles; Fox Hollow, .75 of a mile; Rocky Knob, 2.5 miles; Tuscumbia Trail, 2.5 miles; Dog Wood Point Trail, 4 miles; Big Hill Pond Trail, 6 miles; and Horse Trail, 8 miles.

From Reelfoot Lake to Fall Creek Falls to Warriors’ Path and every state park in between, the 2014 Spring Hikes are designed for all ages and abilities. Some hikes will be approximately one mile in length and tailored for novice hikers, while others are lengthier and geared toward more experienced hikers.

Across The Region Planning underway for Relay for Life BOONEVILLE — Relay for Life organizers want the public to mark their calendars for this year’s event only three months away.

The 2014 Prentiss County Relay for Life is scheduled to take place Friday, June 13 at 6 p.m. on the boulevard at Northeast Community College. As always it will be a special time for the entire community to come together to pay tribute to cancer survivors while remembering those who bravely fought the battle.

The theme is “Stomping Out Cancer,� said Donna Reese, event chairman.

This year’s goal is to raise $97,000 for the American Cancer Society.  Planning meetings take place the first

Tuesday night of the month at 6 at Subway.

These meetings are for team captains, the Relay for Life Committee and anyone who wants to help raise money for Relay for Life.

Modern society brings Kick Butts Day will mark right to know to the fore launch of ‘Secret Smoker’ For Daily Corinthian The Associated Press

OXFORD — Carl Sagan was best known, and appropriately so, as a planetary scientist with a gift for explaining the workings of the universe to those of us who are nonscientists. In his book, “The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark,� he proved he knows us very well: “One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we’ve been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We’re no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It’s simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we’ve been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it back.�

This is certainly in evidence across the landscape today.

Masters of spin and subterfuge inside and outside government and inside and outside the media seem to practice their skills unchallenged.

Reports of outrageous doublespeak are themselves sometimes filled with outrageous doublespeak. Too often, the public response is a collective shrug.

We tune in for the big story, the “perp walk,� but need to remember that may not be our most crucial role.

Once there was a young reporter, full of zeal, who was pulled aside by his boss for guidance. “Look,� the senior journalist said, “in my experience, no one has sought public office with the

preconceived intention of making out like a bandit. It creeps up on them incident by incident, and before they know it they look in the mirror and see the corrupt person they knew they could or would never become.�

As applied, that while observation means “outing� criminal conduct is important, it may be more important to be a constant presence and reminder to all who serve. The message must be that what they do and what they say will be reviewed, will be held up to the light of day.

Let’s be clear: Monitoring and reporting public matters has been a role for the press, but the duty of steering government has always belonged to citizens.

This is especially important to understand today because the arrival of the Internet a mere 25 years ago diluted the economic model that had served the media well for nearly 100 years. Advertisers would pay handsomely for the eyes and ears of an audience who tuned in to receive news from a limited number of sources. Now, advertising is scattered across the World Wide Web, which has translated to fewer reporters on the beat in towns and cities large and small.

This creates a fertile situation for those tempted to betray the public trust. Let’s rig bids.

No one will know. Let’s run up needless and expensive travel on the taxpayers’ tab. No one is watching, so there’s no reason to be frugal.

Thanks to early detection...

The best is yet to come.

Colon Cancer is Preventable, Treatable and Beatable!

Mississippi youth in Alcorn County will recognize Kick Butts Day 2014 on March 19 by launching a new social media campaign called “Secret Smoker.�

Kick Butts Day is a national day for activism when thousands of youth around the world will speak up and stand out against the tobacco industry.

As part of this year’s Kick Butts Day celebration, the Mississippi Tobacco-Free Coalition of Alcorn County is joining with the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH) to launch a web series that will have youth all around the state asking,“Who is the Secret Smoker?� “Mississippi’s teens play a huge role in helping to reduce youth tobacco use in our state,�said Roy Hart, Director of the MSDH Office of Tobacco Control. “Whether it’s through educating peers face to face or by sharing messages through social media, research shows us that teens listen to other teens – the people they trust and look up to.

In launching the Secret Smoker campaign, we hope teens will watch and share these webisodes with their peers.�

The Secret Smoker campaign premieres March 19 and will reveal new cliff-hanging episodes for the next five weeks on social media sites and YouTube, as

well as thesecretsmoker.com.

On the website, viewers can vote on who they think the Secret Smoker is after each episode, play games where they must find something in each episode, answer trivia questions about the episodes on Facebook, engage in character profiles, and interact through Facebook and Twitter to determine which character is the Secret Smoker.

Tobacco use is the leading preventable cause of death in the United States, killing more than 480,000 people every year.

Each year, 3,100 Mississippi kids under the age of 18 become new, daily smokers. Sixty-eight thousand Mississippi kids now under 18 will ultimately die prematurely from smoking, according to the Campaign for Tobacco-Free Kids. “Kick Butts Day is an opportunity for participating youth to speak out and tell others they are not going to be influenced by pressure to use tobacco products.

While Kick Butts Day is officially held on one day each year, our hope is that every day will be Kick Butts Day in the fight against tobacco.� said Emily J. McGrath, Project Director of Alcorn and Tippah Counties.

(For more information on the Secret Smoker series, visit thesecretsmoker.com or follow@whosthesecretsmoker on Facebook and Twitter.)

They are looking forward to many happy years.

One thing they are doing to make that happen is regular screening for colon cancer, the third leading cause of cancer-related deaths.

Corinth, Miss.

Our View

Congratulations to Cortez Spence The Boys & Girls Club of Northeast Mississippi is doing some great things in several communities, including the masterful job by Corinth Club Unit Director Christy Grice.

In addition to the many wonderful activities for our local youth comes the recent news that 15-year-old Corinth High School sophomore Cortez Spence was named runner-up in the Boys & Girls Club State Youth of the Year competition in Jackson.

We believe we speak for the entire community when we point out what a great honor it is for one of our local youth. It is a wonderful accomplishment and we want to congratulate Cortez for the positive statewide reflection he has represented for Corinth.

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,” Grice told the Daily Corinthian.

“Everyone was so impressed with how young he was.”

Caterpillar, Trustmark and KimberlyClark assisted the student with mock interviews, which helped Cortez with the process.

He had to write essays on “What the Boys Club Means to Me”, “Why a Post Education is Important” and another about life goals.

We will be hopeful this time next year that Cortez earns $50,000 and an opportunity to meet the president.

That’s what happens when a person wins the competition.

Prayer for today Gracious Father, help me to understand that peace cannot abide in misery, nor can it stay with every mood. May I be able to overcome the depression that may keep me in sadness and isolation, and have delight in the gladness of friends, and live in the peace of strong resolutions. Amen.

A verse to share “Wait for the Lord; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the Lord!”

— Psalm 27:14

What difference does it make?

In the last stanza of “The Battle of Blenheim,” Robert Southey writes: “But what good came of it at last?” Quoth little Peterkin.

“Why, that I cannot tell,” said he; “But ‘twas a famous victory.”

What did it really matter? The poet was asking of the triumph of the Duke of Marlborough — “Who this great fight did win.”

What brings back this poem about the transience of glory and folly of war — during this week’s struggle over whose flag will fly over Crimea — is a wall chart that just arrived from the UN. “World Population 2012” projects the population growth, or decline, of every country and continent, between now and 2050.

Most deeply involved in Crimea’s crisis are Russia and Ukraine. Yet, looking at the UN numbers, there seems an element of absurdity in this confrontation that could lead to a shooting war.

Between 2012 and 2050, Ukraine, war or no war, will lose one-fourth of its population. Eleven to twelve million Ukrainians will vanish from the earth, a figure far higher than the highest estimate of the death toll of the horrific Holodomor of 1932-33.

Russia will lose 22 million people, with her population falling below 121 million.

Every month between now and 2050, close to 50,000 Russians will disappear.

Those who warn that Vladimir Putin is trying to reconstitute the Soviet Union might Patrick explain how Buchanan this is going to be done as Columnist Russia loses 22 million people, while the former Soviet republics of Central Asia — Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Turkmenistan — together add 22 million people.

How often in history do nations with shrinking populations invade and annex those with surging populations?

When the UN was set up in 1945, Stalin wanted each of 15 Soviet republics given a seat in the General Assembly. He settled for three seats — for Russia, Ukraine and Byelorussia, now Belarus.

Our War Party is demanding that we send military assistance and possibly troops to Poland, the Baltic republics and Rumania, and bring Ukraine and Georgia into NATO. This would mean America would fight Russia to defend them all, should another clash occur as in 2008 in Georgia and today in Crimea. Does this make sense — for any of us?

According to the UN, there are 6.3 million Lithuanians, Latvians and Esto-

nians. And these three Baltic republics will see their combined populations sink by one million by 2050.

How would a NATO-Russia war over Estonia benefit Estonia?

In March 1939, Britain gave a war guarantee to Poland and, honoring it, declared war on Germany.

That was the end of the British Empire. And how did the “Good War” work out for Poland?

Her Jewish population of 3 million was largely annihilated, and, by some estimates, 3 million Catholic Poles perished. Poland then endured four decades of rule by Polish satraps of Soviet commissars.

V-E Day brought something other than victory for the nation for whom Britain went to war.

Today, Poland’s population is back to 38 million.

But on the UN chart, Poland is on schedule to lose 4 million Poles by mid-century.

While our War Party debates where to draw the red line against Russia, the UN projects that the 10 countries on both sides of that line — Russia, Belarus, the Baltic republics, Ukraine, Poland, Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria — will together lose 50 million people by mid-century, and another 50 million by the end of the century.

The fertility rate in these 10 countries is barely two-thirds of what is needed to maintain an existing population.

Remarkable. The century following the peaceful end of the Cold War and the liberation of the captive nations may witness population losses for Europe that exceed those of two world wars and rival those of the Black Death of the 14th century.

European Man is an endangered species. European Man is dying out. By 2050, Russia, the fourth most populous nation in 1950, will be 15th, behind Egypt, and far behind Congo and Tanzania. The only Western nation in the top 14 will be the USA. But most Americans will then trace their ancestry to Asia, Africa and Latin America.

Since 1914, all the great European empires — British, French, German, Russian, Italian — have vanished. All the great armies and navies have melted away. All are being invaded and repopulated by African, Asian and Middle Eastern peoples they once ruled.

And almost all of the nativeborn populations of Europe are aging and dying and passing away.

“This is how the world ends,” said T. S. Eliot, “Not with a bang but a whimper.”

Like Southey, he, too, may have got it right.

The un-American anti-Koch campaign Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has high standards for American-ness.

That’s why it carried such weight when he described the Koch brothers in a speech on the Senate floor as “about as un-American as anyone that I can imagine.” Coming from anyone lacking Reid’s powers of patriotic discernment, this would have been shameful hyperbole. From Reid, it was a peerless act of taxonomy.

What immediately had him so exercised was antiObamacare ads funded by the Koch brothers, but surely other potentially unAmerican activities lurked in the back of his mind.

If you want to score a contest between the Koch brothers and Harry Reid over who has contributed more to America, it doesn’t seem close. The Koch brothers got wealthy creating productive industries that employ tens of thousands of people. Harry Reid got (obviously much less) wealthy as a career politician.

York Presbyterian Hospital, or just the $35 million to the Smithsonian’s NationRich al Museum Lowry of Natural History — National will do more Review good than Harry Reid’s constant maneuvers to try to protect his vulnerable incumbents.

Reid’s maligning of the Koch brothers is part of a partywide effort to attack the politically engaged libertarian duo. Groups that the Kochs have donated to or are affiliated with have spent some $30 million on the midterm elections so far, with more on the way.

For Democrats, that is a mortal sin.

Of course, Reid didn’t complain about a globetrotting billionaire who made a mint through currency speculation spending more than $25 million trying to defeat President George W. Bush in 2004. By Reid’s standard, George Soros was as robustly American as John Wayne.

The left doesn’t lack for people trying, in Reid’s stilted terms, “to buy America.”

But the break-glass-inemergency Democratic option in tough midterms is finding a boogeyman. In 2010, it was “secret foreign money” funneled through the Chamber of Commerce.

This absurdly tendentious demagoguery didn’t stop Republicans from picking up more than 60 House seats.

Nor will the attack on the Kochs affect this year’s outcome one way or another. Are we supposed to believe that voters, who are overwhelmingly sour on Obamacare, will ignore their feelings about the highly consequential law and treat the midterms as a referendum on the people funding ads attacking the law that they don’t like in the first place?

The left can be forgiven for thinking everyone else is as obsessed with the Koch brothers as it is. The log on the Koch Industries website of New York Times stories mentioning the Kochs since 2011 runs about 20 pages when printed.

The logical endpoint of this anti-Kochery was the spectacle of left-wingers

protesting the coming advent of the David H. Koch Center at New York Presbyterian Hospital because of its association with a philanthropist with uncongenial politics. How long before demonstrators target the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center and interrupt “Swan Lake” with cries of “Koch Kills Democracy”?

The old Saul Alinsky dictum is apt: “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.” In its piece on Reid’s anti-Koch gambit, The New York Times reports, “The majority leader was particularly struck by a presentation during a recent Senate Democratic retreat, which emphasized that one of the best ways to draw an effective contrast is to pick a villain.”

How high-minded. For a powerful national officeholder to stoop to such invective against private citizens seems bullying and itself vaguely un-American. But I defer to Harry Reid. He is the expert on American-ness.

Police body cameras raise privacy issues LOS ANGELES — Officers at thousands of law enforcement agencies are wearing tiny cameras to record their interactions with the public, but in many cases the devices are being rolled out faster than departments are able to create policies to govern their use.

And some rank-andfile officers are worried the technology might ultimately be used to derail their careers if, for example, an errant comment about a superior is captured on tape.

Most law enforcement leaders and civil liberties advocates believe the cameras will ultimately help officers because the devices give them a way to record events from their point of view at a time when citizens armed with cellphones are actively scrutinizing their every move.

They say, however, that the lack of clear guidelines on the cameras’ use could potentially undermine departments’ goals of creating greater accountability of officers and jeopardize the privacy of both the public and law enforcement officers.

“This is a brave new world that we’re entering here, where citizens and police both are going to be filming each other,” said Chuck Wexler, the executive director of the Police Executive Research Forum.

Rescue workers find cellar of blast site NEW YORK — Emergency workers sifted through debris Saturday from the site of a deadly explosion at two New York City apartment buildings as they worked to reach deeper into the basement levels to clear the way for investigators to search for clues that might reveal what caused the blast.

Fire Commissioner Salvatore Cassano said investigation of the piping and the meters in front of the basement will likely start on Sunday and that the National Transportation Safety Board should be able to start pressure-testing the pipes.

Arson detectives and fire marshals have been waiting to enter the basements to examine meters, check pipes and inspect any possible ignition sources, such as light switches, that might have caused the blast.

The theory that the explosion was due to a gas leak gained momentum Friday after the NTSB, which investigates pipeline accidents, said underground tests conducted in the hours after the explosion registered high concentrations of natural gas. The NTSB will conduct its own inquiry after police and fire officials determine what might have caused the blast.

Kiss wants Singer, Thayer in Rock Hall NEW YORK — Paul Stanley of Kiss wants to shout it out loud: The band is miffed at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for not inducting members Eric Singer and Tommy Thayer along with the original lineup.

Kiss is scheduled to be inducted into the Rock Hall on April 10 in New York City. But Stanley said in an interview Friday with The Associated Press that he doesn’t think the Rock Hall is being fair and that the organization has altered their rules for other acts.

“We have continuing issues with the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, starting with the fact that they chose to only induct the original lineup when that’s hardly the case with other bands,” he said from Los Angeles.

“In the Grateful Dead’s case, (they) also inducted a writer who never played an instrument,” said Stanley, referring to Robert Hunter’s inclusion when the band was inducted in 1994. “Or they’ve inducted rap artists, or they’ve inducted people who have been in the band for seven years as opposed to ...

25 years or 20 years — whatever their criteria of this week is.”

Murder case brings concern about limits It was a chilling crime and, even with a quick arrest, disturbing questions lingered.

Derrick Thompson

called 911 in the coastal Maine city of Biddeford to report that he was being threatened. Police checked out the complaint, decided it was a civil matter and left the scene. Three minutes later, the teenager and his girlfriend were shot dead.

In a state averaging 25 murders a year, the case was clearly of public interest and the police officers were doing the public’s business. But answering questions about their handling of the call took a lawsuit, an appeal and 11 months after state prosecutors turned down the Portland Press Herald’s request for 911 transcripts.

The faceoff was eventually settled in the newspaper’s favor by Maine’s top court. But editors, advocates and academics say such situations reflect increasing difficulty getting access to information from statehouses and city halls across the country, as officials broadly interpret exemptions in laws requiring openness.

Obama’s skit at over 15 million hits NEW YORK — President Barack Obama’s appearance on the “Between Two Ferns” satirical online talk show this week has reached 15 million views — almost at Justin Bieber levels.

The website Funny or Die said Friday that Obama’s interview with Zach Galifianakis, posted Tuesday, will likely beat Bieber’s record of 17.8 million views for the show. The pop singer’s appearance was posted in September.

The president’s appearance to persuade young people to sign up for health insurance is a key moment for the Internet, much like Franklin Roosevelt’s fireside chats were for radio and the Kennedy-Nixon debate for television, said Dick Glover, CEO of the comic website started by Will Ferrell.

For his part, Obama told Ryan Seacrest in an interview that he figured he’d reached his target audience when his daughter Malia was excited that he’d done the interview when he told her at the dinner table.

USM to upgrade popular landmark HATTIESBURG — University of Southern Mississippi officials believe when major upgrades are completed popular Lake Byron, the landmark will be more accessible and more attractive than at any time during its 80-year history.

The lake is located at the front of the campus where a tornado struck last year.

Lake Byron was completed in 1934 as a memorial gift from that year’s senior class. The lake is named for Dr. Byron E. Green, a local veterinarian and president of the Forrest County Board of Supervisors.

The school intends to plant new trees, most native to Mississippi, around the lake to create an arboretum effect.

Delay sought in enticement trial OXFORD — A man convicted of using the Internet to entice a 15-yearold girl for sexual activity has asked a judge to find him innocent or give him a new trial.

Garry Waddle was convicted in U.S. District Court in Oxford on Feb. 25. He is awaiting sentencing.

Authorities say Waddle was arrested in Tupelo in 2013 after he arrived to meet a 15-year-old for sex. His arrest was part of an undercover Internet sex crime sting.

In a motion filed this week, Waddle argues the subject of sex and

meeting was broached before any mention of age, that the photo of the girl officers posed as seemed to indicate the user was between 17 and 21 years old and that there was never actually a minor involved.

Saturday reception honors Biloxi barber BILOXI — A weekend ceremony in Biloxi was scheduled in honor of a barber who opened his first shop in the city 52 years ago.

Tyrone Burton was an ambitious young man from Louisiana when he opened his barber shop in Biloxi in 1962.

A Saturday night event honoring him for his years of success and leadership in the city was set for a community center near his business.

WLOX reports that Burton, now 73-yearsold, says he still enjoys working.

Biloxi City Councilman Felix Gines, who credits Burton with being one of the first businessowners to re-open in the area after Hurricane Katrina, is an organizer of the event, along with resident Kay Horne.

Newspaper seeks release of letters GULFPORT — A Mississippi newspaper wants to see letters written to a federal judge in Alabama on behalf of former Jackson County Sheriff Mike Byrd who faced sentencing for witness tampering.

The Sun Herald reports its attorneys filed

a motion Friday in U.S. District Court in Mobile, Ala., for copies of the letters.

In sentencing Byrd this past week, U.S. District Judge William H. Steele said he had received up to 50 letters on the former sheriff’s behalf. The judge said he had considered “all the information” before imposing the sentence.

Byrd was sentenced to six months of home confinement and six months’ probation after admitting he twice kicked in the groin a suspect in the theft of a county patrol car after he was handcuffed and “unresisting.”

Ingalls to construct first of five ships PASCAGOULA — Huntington Ingalls Industries has been awarded $601 million for construction of a destroyer, DDG 119, at its shipyard in Pascagoula.

The destroyer is part of a $3.3 billion contract the Pascagoula facility was awarded last June to build five DDG 51 Class ships.

The modification announced Friday also provides $79.4 million in advanced procurement funding for the fiscal 2016-17 ships. One ship will be built in Pascagoula each fiscal year from 2013 to 2017.

DDG 119 will be the second produced in the five-ship package.

The Arleigh Burkeclass ships are 510 feet long and carry a 276-person crew. The destroyers are equipped with the Aegis weapons systems.

Cigar club meets in open air in Tupelo

Deaths Violet Irene Dawson

The Associated Press

Funeral services for Violet Irene Dawson, 79, of Corinth, are set for 2 p.m. Tuesday at Magnolia Funeral Home Chapel of Memories with burial in Henry Cemetery.

Mrs. Dawson died Friday, March 14, 2014 at her home.

Born November 14, 1934, she was a business owner/cosmetologist and member of Tate Baptist Church.

Survivors include her husband of 49 years, Truman Dawson of Corinth; a son, John Todd Dawson and wife Samantha of Olive Branch; and two sisters, Jeanette Gibens and Elois Phillips both of Corinth.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Johnnie Newcomb and Mildred Millikin Newcomb; and a brother, Johnnie Frank Newcomb.

Rev. Greg Warnock will officiate.

Visitation is Monday from 5-7 p.m. at the funeral home.

TUPELO — The air gets heavy on the third Thursday of each month, and members of Tupelo Smokes like it that way.

“It’s called a cigar club, but we could call it ‘men’s night out,’” said Art Chambers, 64, of Tupelo.

Fred Pitts is the closest thing to a president the club has. He has a list of about 50 people, and he sends out emails each month.

Between 10 and 20 guys usually show up to smoke cigars, while also sipping Scotch or another beverage of their choice.

“I had the idea a few years ago,” said Pitts, 71, of Tupelo. “Jim Goodwin and I got together that first night. It was him and me.”

Pitts has smoked cigars on and off since college, but it’s become more frequent in the past five years.

“In the summer, I’ll probably have one every day,” he said. “In the wintertime, that depends on when and where I can.”

The club often meets upstairs at Park Heights in downtown Tupelo. It’s

an open-air location, so thick, gray smoke clears out pretty quickly, but the location has its drawbacks.

“We have met at Park Heights in December when it was snowing outside,” Pitts said. “That was dedication.”

February’s meeting doubled as an open house for Spring Street Cigars, a new business owned

by Dalton Healey, 23, of Starkville. He co-owns a cigar shop in Starkville, and decided to give Tupelo a try after hearing about the club.

“Having them here is a big plus,” he said. “If you don’t have support, your business isn’t going to make it.”

Healey said he was surprised members of the club didn’t open their own shop, but there are cigar options available. Chambers’ wife sells cigars at His & Hers Antiques, and many Tupelo Smokes members buy online.

“Cigars are a lifestyle,” Healey said. “It’s not a habit. It’s not a cigarette.

It’s a lifestyle.”

Tupelo resident Mo

Daher, 30, started smoking cigars about 10 years ago, so when his daughter Annie was born, he felt a responsibility to find the perfect cigar to mark the occasion.

When his daughter Annie was born, proud papa Mo Daher, 30, of Tupelo, knew he had to buy cigars to hand out to fellow members of Tupelo Smokes cigar club.

He wasn’t interested in cheap novelty cigars with “It’s a Girl” written in pink. Instead, he found a variety by La Dueña that featured a cameo of a lady on the wrapper.

“It’s feminine and my wife likes cameos, so I thought that would be nice,” he said.

More importantly, how do they taste?

“I really enjoyed them,” said Daher, who placed boxes full of cigars along with a picture of newborn Annie at the last meeting.

Members of Tupelo Smokes aren’t elitists, but they have standards.

“It’s like smoke-able art,” Daher said. “Every one is hand-rolled and hand-blended.”

“It’s kind of like Scotch with different ages and different blends,” Pitts said. “Every cigar can be rolled out of multiple leaves to get different tastes, like blending grapes for wine.”

Maury Giachelli, 28, of Tupelo, joined the group last summer, and he’s enjoyed cigars since his college days.

“Usually, they say bring a cigar to smoke and bring a cigar to trade,” Giachelli said. “Put it in the pot, someone smokes it and you can talk about it.”

Giachelli said he’s no expert, but sometimes a hint of cinnamon or hickory smoke can be detected. Some smokers prefer milder cigars, while others appreciate a heavy, full-bodied taste.

Pitts said one rule seems to hold true all the time: “The cheaper the cigar, the worse they are. If you get good quality, you don’t mind the smell.”

He said a cigar can go for $4 up to $25.

“I’ve never had the ones that are more than $25,” Chambers said, “so I can’t tell if they’re worth it.”

No mention of quality can be complete without bringing up Cuba. Because of the U.S. trade embargo, Cuban cigars have taken on a mythical quality.

There are ways around the embargo, especially for those who travel to other countries, but an anonymous member of Tupelo Smokes said, “If we tell you about it, we’ll have to kill you.”

Besides, Pitts and Chambers said handrolled products from Honduras and Nicaragua provide about as fine a smoking experience as a guy could ask for.

Anyone with a contrasting opinion is welcome to share it with the club.

Then again, cigars don’t have to be the topic of conversation.

“Anybody is welcome.

There’s no membership fee. Just come and have a good time,” Pitts said.

“What we usually do is order hors d’oeuvres and everybody snacks on them.

By the end of the night, somebody pays for it.

That rotates each month.

Nothing formal, sort of a gentleman’s agreement.”

Plane’s disappearance deliberate, Malaysian leader says The Associated Press

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — The Malaysian jetliner missing for more than a week was deliberately diverted and continued flying for more than six hours after severing contact with the ground, meaning it could have gone as far northwest as Kazakhstan or into the Indian Ocean’s southern reaches, Malaysia’s leader said Saturday.

Prime Minister Najib Razak’s statement confirmed days of mounting speculation that the disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 to Beijing was not accidental. It also refocused the investigation into the flight’s 12-person crew and 227 passengers, and underlined the complicated task for searchers who already have been scouring vast areas of ocean.

“Clearly the search for MH370 has entered a new phase,” Najib said at a televised news conference.

Najib stressed that investigators were looking into all possibilities as to why the Boeing 777 deviated so drastically from its original flight path, saying authorities could not confirm whether it was a hijacking. Earlier Saturday, a Malaysian official said the plane had been hijacked, though he added that no motive had been established and no demands had been made known.

“In view of this latest development, the Malaysian authorities have refocused their investigation

into the crew and passengers on board,” Najib told reporters, reading from a written statement but not taking any questions.

Police on Saturday went to the Kuala Lumpur homes of both the pilot and co-pilot of the missing plane, according to a guard and several local reporters. Authorities have said they will investigate the pilots as part of their probe, but have released no information about how they are progressing.

Experts have previously said that whoever disabled the plane’s communication systems and then flew the jet must have had a high degree of technical knowledge and flying experience. One possibility they have raised was that one of the pilots wanted to commit suicide.

The plane departed for an overnight flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing at 12:40 a.m. on March 8. Its communications with civilian air controllers were severed at about 1:20 a.m., and the jet went missing — heralding one of the most puzzling mysteries in modern aviation history.

China, where the bulk of the passengers were from, expressed irritation over what it described as Malaysia’s foot-dragging in releasing information about the search.

Investigators now have a high degree of certainty that one of the plane’s communications systems — the Aircraft and Communications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) — was

partially disabled before the aircraft reached the east coast of Malaysia, Najib said. Shortly afterward, someone on board switched off the aircraft’s transponder, which communicates with civilian air traffic controllers.

Najib confirmed that Malaysian air force defense radar picked up traces of the plane turning back westward, crossing over Peninsular Malaysia into the northern stretches of the Strait of Malacca. Authorities previously had said this radar data could not be verified.

“These movements are consistent with deliberate action by someone on the plane,” Najib said.

Although the aircraft was flying virtually blind to air traffic controllers at this point, onboard equipment continued to send “pings” to satellites.

U.S. aviation safety experts say the shutdown of communications systems makes it clear the missing Malaysia Airlines jet was taken over by someone who knew how the plane worked.

To turn off the transponder, someone in the cockpit would have to turn a knob with multiple selections to the “off” position while pressing down at the same time, said John Goglia, a former member of the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board. That’s something a pilot would know, but it could also be learned by someone who researched the plane on the Internet, he said.

nications Addressing and Reporting System (ACARS) has two aspects, Goglia said. The information part of the system was shut down, but not the transmission part. In most planes, the information section can be shut down by hitting cockpit switches in sequence in order to get to a computer screen where an option must be selected using a keypad, said Goglia, an expert on aircraft maintenance.

That’s also something a pilot would know how to do, but that could also be discovered through research, he said.

But to turn off the other transmission portion of the ACARS, it would be necessary to go to an electronics bay beneath the cockpit. That’s something a pilot wouldn’t normally know how to do, Goglia said. The Malaysia plane’s ACARS transmitter continued to send out blips that were recorded by satellite once an hour for four to five hours after the transponder was turned off. The blips don’t contain any messages or data, but the satellite can tell in a very broad way what region the blips are coming from.

Malaysia’s prime minister said the last confirmed signal between the plane and a satellite came at 8:11 a.m. — 7 hours and 31 minutes after takeoff.

This was more than five hours later than the previous time given by Malaysian authorities as the possible last contact.

Airline officials have said the plane had enough fuel to fly for up to about eight hours.

“The investigations team is making further calculations which will indicate how far the aircraft may have flown after this last point of contact,” Najib said.

He said authorities had determined that the plane’s last communication with a satellite was in one of two possible arcs, or “corridors” — a northern one from northern Thailand through to the border of the Central Asian countries Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan,

and a southern one from Indonesia to the southern Indian Ocean.

The northern route might theoretically have taken the plane through China, India, Pakistan, Afghanistan — which hosts U.S. military bases — and Central Asia, and it is unclear how it might have gone undetected.

The region is also home to extremist Islamist groups, unstable governments and remote, sparsely populated areas.

Flying south would have put the plane over the Indian Ocean, with an average depth of 3,890 meters (12,762 feet) and thousands of kilometers (miles) from the nearest land mass.

Britain-based aviation security consultant Chris Yates thought it was highly unlikely the plane would have taken the northern route across land in Asia.

“In theory, any country that sees a strange blip is going to get fighter planes up to have a look,” he said. “And if those fighter planes can’t make head or tail of what it is, they will shoot it down.”

Najib said search efforts in the South China Sea, where the plane first lost contact, had ended.

Indian officials said navy ships supported by long-range surveillance planes and helicopters scoured Andaman Sea islands for a third day Saturday without any success in finding evidence of the missing jet.

Two-thirds of the plane’s passengers were Chinese, and China’s government has been under pressure to give relatives firm news of the aircraft’s fate.

In a stinging commentary on Saturday, the Chinese government’s Xinhua News Agency said the Malaysian information was “painfully belated,” resulting in wasted efforts and straining the nerves of relatives.

“Given today’s technology, the delay smacks of either dereliction of duty or reluctance to share information in a full and timely manner,” Xinhua

said. “That would be intolerable.”

Najib said he understood the need for families to receive information, but that his government wanted to release only fully corroborated reports. He said his country has been sharing information with international investigators, even when it meant placing “national security concerns” second to the search. U.S., British and Malaysian air safety investigators have been on the ground in Malaysia to assist with the investigation.

In the Chinese capital, relatives of passengers who have anxiously awaited news at a hotel near Beijing’s airport said they felt deceived at not being told earlier about the plane’s last signal.

“We are going through a roller coaster, and we feel helpless and powerless,” said a woman, who declined to give her name.

At least one of the relatives saw a glimmer of hope in word that the plane’s disappearance was a deliberate act, rather than a crash. “It’s very good,” said a woman, who gave only her surname, Wen. Malaysian police have already said they are looking at the psychological state, family life and connections of pilot Zaharie Ahmad Shah, 53, and co-pilot Fariq Abdul Hamid, 27. Both have been described as respectable, community-minded men.

Zaharie joined Malaysia Airlines in 1981 and had more than 18,000 hours of flying experience. His Facebook page showed an aviation enthusiast who flew remote-controlled aircraft, posting pictures of his collection, which included a lightweight twinengine helicopter and an amphibious aircraft.

Fariq was contemplating marriage after having just graduated to the cockpit of a Boeing 777.

He has drawn scrutiny after the revelation that in 2011, he and another pilot invited two women aboard their aircraft to sit in the cockpit for a flight from Phuket, Thailand, to Kuala Lumpur.

Fourteen countries are involved in the search for the plane, using 43 ships and 58 aircraft.

A U.S. P-8A Poseidon, the most advanced longrange anti-submarine and anti-surface warfare aircraft in the world, was to arrive over the weekend and sweep parts of the Indian Ocean, the U.S. Defense Department said in a statement.

The famous Big Harold cheeseburger is being served up once again in downtown Corinth.

Corinth natives Nikki Monroe and James Maricle recently opened Fillmore Street Café in the former location where Harold and Peggy Smith operated the legendary Hamburger Harold’s for more than 50 years.

“We want to carry on the tradition by offering our version of the Big Harold on our menu,” said Monroe, a graduate of Alcorn Central High School.

“I wanted to change the name of the restaurant and put my own touch on the place, but still remind folks of the history here.”

Both Monroe and Maricle are fulfilling lifelong dreams of running their own restaurant.

“I have owned other businesses and have been in the restaurant business for many years, but I have always wanted to own my own restaurant,” Monroe said. “I take pride in this place and want to make sure every customer is happy with their food and service.”

Maricle was a school teacher for more than 30 years before retiring.

“I’ve always wanted to try to own and help run a restaurant,” he said.

“Sometimes it’s stressful, but overall I really enjoy it.”

Fillmore Street Café opened on Feb. 10 to a warm reception from both new and returning customers.

“Customers have been feeding us some great compliments,” Monroe added. “They have said we have great food and great prices. I’ve had a few people say it was the best burger in town and a handful of customers say we have a really good slugburger.”

The menu went unchanged for more than 50 years under the Smith’s reign. The new owners, however, are proud to offer what they call a wide selection of different options.

“In addition to the Big Harold, we also have a Fillmore Burger which comes topped with grilled onions, cheese and bacon,” Maricle said. “We have a shrimp po’boy, homemade chicken strips and grilled chicken.”

With more than 30 years of restaurant cooking under his belt, Corinth native Johnny Buchanan is running the kitchen.

The menu features an array of homemade sides including home cut fries, fried green tomatoes and onion rings. A rotating selection of homemade des-

The tradition of the Big Harold cheeseburger continues at the Fillmore Street Cafe. serts has become popular.

“We think we’ve got some of the best pricing in town for breakfast and lunch,” Monroe said.

The two owners, who can be seen pretty much every day at the café, added fresh paint and a new dining room area prior to opening.

“We have remodeled

everything,” said Maricle.

Returning Hamburger Harold customers will be happy to find the hundreds of old Corinth related pictures still grace the walls of the downtown eatery.

“People must be happy with our food and prices, because they keep coming back,” Monroe added.

“We already have regulars

who have made our place their lunch spot.”

(Located at 112 North Fillmore Street, the café is open from 6:30 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday-Saturday.

Federal judge dismisses motion to broaden case Associated Press

GULFPORT — A federal judge has awarded legal fees and damages against

State Farm Fire and Casualty Co. in a whistleblower lawsuit that resulted in a jury’s finding that

Financial Solutions with a Smile and a Handshake

the insurer defrauded the government involving a policyholder claim after Hurricane Katrina.

However, the judge refused to allow sisters Cori and Kerri Rigsby of Ocean Springs, Miss., to initiate investigations into claims on other properties insured by State Farm.

The Sun Herald reports the judge ruled the whistleblower law limits a lawsuit to a claim for which the Rigsbys were able to offer independent, personal knowledge.

The Rigsbys worked for a contractor to assess damage after the hurricane.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Out quarterly “Blitz” Special Edition — over 30 pages in size with multiple features — is coming out on Tuesday.

Friend’s deathbed promise turns into a living nightmare DEAR ABBY: I have been widowed for five years. I have a close friend, “Louise,” who was also close to my late husband.

She promised him on his deathbed she would “take care of me” when he was gone.

Well, she has taken it to the extreme. She became very controlling and didn’t want me doing anything without her. I went along with it to keep the peace until about a year ago, when I met a wonderful man I’ll call Bill.

Bill recently moved into my home. Louise says he has no right to live with me here because my late husband had it built and I have no right to let anyone else stay here. Now she refuses to visit. People have repeated to me some of the awful things she has called Bill. We have had many arguments over the hurtful things she has said in my presence.

Bill feels bad about this. He hasn’t said or done anything to deserve the treatment Louise is dishing out and has encouraged me to try and work it out. Any advice on how to handle this very stressful situation? -- WIDOW IN SALEM, N.J. DEAR WIDOW: Yes. Stop trying to appease Louise. She has gone beyond “taking care of you” and is trying to dictate the way you live your life. Bill means well, but you have already tried

to get Louise to accept the situation.

Because she refuses, perhaps it’s time to move on.

D E A R Abigail ABBY: I’m in Van Buren a bind when it comes to hostess gifts.

Dear Abby I know nothing about wine and am not much interested in learning because most of my friends and I don’t drink. I am also allergic to flowers and perfumes, so I would never give anyone flowers, soaps or candles, because if I did I would have to leave the party early.

This leaves me confused as to what is appropriate. Could I give a nice jar of high-quality spice or are there better options? -- IN THE DARK ABOUT HOSTESS GIFTS DEAR IN THE DARK: A box of chocolates might be nice, if your hosts are sweet-eaters, or matching small- and mediumsized picture frames, or a box of note cards and matching envelopes. However, unless you are certain the spice you select is one your hosts might use, I don’t recommend it as a house gift.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a single mother supporting four children with

no help from my ex-husband. I am fortunate to have a good job that I like. I referred a friend to the company who has since become a regular employee, and he seems to be happy here.

I was recently told that I’ll be receiving a referral bonus, which was a pleasant surprise. My friend approached me and asked me point-blank to split the money with him! I was taken aback.

He knows my situation. He has a wife who also works full time, and two kids.

I think he has a lot of gall to put me in a spot like this. The bonus money will be a huge help to me, and I don’t think it’s right that he expects me to give half of it to him. How do I handle this while keeping our work relationship intact? -- EXTORTED IN NEVADA DEAR EXTORTED: Ignore your co-worker’s question. If the subject is raised again, laugh and tell him you thought he was joking. If he says he wasn’t, remind him how hard jobs are to find and tell him he’s lucky you didn’t ask HIM for a referral fee. You don’t owe him anything; he owes YOU his gratitude.

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).

You’re unique; therefore, the care and feeding of you are slightly different from what is required for any other being. The particulars of this will keep you busy for a good part of the day.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You know that satisfaction is created in the mind, not in the environment, and yet you have a much easier time making that headspace a reality after you’ve straightened up at home.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You walk around thinking that inside you’re like many others, but you are more unique (not to mention intelligent) than you give yourself credit for. Put some of those brilliant ideas in writing.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). Go into sample mode. It’s not the right time to make a big commitment, but you can try lots of options in a quest for the one that brings you the most pleasure.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your

dreams are big, but they will be achieved just as anything else is achieved: minute by minute.

You’ll come up with a better plan for spending your minutes.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You’ll make up your own mind, and anyone who tries to persuade you in a particular direction will only be motivating you to do the opposite. You’re not stubborn, just independent (and smart).

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You can’t force yourself to love what or whom you don’t love, although there will be those who encourage you to fake enthusiasm for political, social or personal gain.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). In light of recent events, your point of view has changed. What you used to think of as an inconvenience you now think of as an advantage -- and one you’ll thoroughly work today.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You stand out from the others because you refuse to

let your desire to win override your sense of who you are and what you stand for. If you can’t get there with integrity, you don’t want to get there at all.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Before you attempt communication, take a moment to size up the emotional tone of the room and the mood of your prospects. When you come from a place of awareness and empathy, you’ll succeed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).

People feel good around you and have a great time doing things with you. That’s a bigger deal than you think. You’re so used to being generally easy-going that you don’t even realize what a gift it is to the world.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Whatever is at the top of your list will be accomplished. If you don’t have a list and someone close to you does have one, you’ll be roped into accomplishing what’s at the top of that person’s list.

Itawamba AHS wins first girls’ title Associated Press

JACKSON — Constance Dunn scored 14 points, grabbed 12 rebounds and came up with a game-winning steal with six seconds remaining as Itawamba AHS narrowly beat Bay High 42-41 to claim the MHSAA Class 4A girls state championship on Saturday afternoon.

It is the Lady Indians’ first state championship in school history.

Dunn shot 6 of 17 from the field and Kim Mallory added 13 points for Itawamba AHS. The Lady Indians (29-8) played tight defense in the final minute to seal the win.

Dunn’s steal was crucial, but

Top-ranked Florida wears down Tennessee Associated Press

ATLANTA — Even facing its biggest deficit since November, No. 1 Florida never panicked.

The Gators know their defense will never let them down.

Swarming relentlessly in the second half, Florida rallied from 10 points down and defeated Tennessee 56-49 in the semifinals of the Southeastern Conference tournament Saturday.

Patric Young scored 16 points and Scottie Wilbekin added 14, but this victory had nothing to do with what happened at the offensive end. It was all about what Tennessee faced when it had the ball after halftime.

The Volunteers made only 5-of-20 shots with 11 turnovers, and things really got grim down the stretch as they were stifled time and time again — making just one of

their last 11 attempts from the field, while turning it over five times.

Everywhere they turned, it seemed like a Florida player was waiting, ready to take a swipe at the ball.

“We didn’t really switch anything up,” Wilbekin said.

“We just tried to go into an extra gear.”

Florida (31-2) extended its school-record winning streak to 25 in a row after being down 35-28 at halftime.

“This group has a resiliency and a competitiveness,” coach Billy Donovan said.

“We have our faults. We’re not perfect. But I’ve never walked off the court saying, ‘Wow, these guys didn’t get after it, they didn’t compete.’”

Tennessee (21-12) had a chance to post its most impressive win of the season.

Now, its postseason fate rests in the hands of the NCAA selection committee.

The Gators, improving to 20-0 against SEC opponents, advanced to face Kentucky in the championship game Sunday. The second-seeded Wildcats defeated Georgia 70-58, but have lost twice to Florida this season.

“I’ve seen a lot of teams.

I’ve watched a lot of teams from afar,” Tennessee coach Cuonzo Martin said of the Gators. “They’re one of the best defensive teams in the country.”

Jordan McRae led Tennessee with 15 points, while Jarnell Stokes had 13 points and seven rebounds.

The final minutes were marred by a number of questionable calls, including a technical on Tennessee’s Jeronne Maymon for disputing that he threw a shoulder. It was the fifth foul on Maymon, knocking him out of the game with more than 4 1-2 minutes remaining after he

scored 10 points and grabbed nine rebounds.

Then with just over a minute left, there was a long break while the officials went to the replay to rule on a potential flagrant foul against Wilbekin, even though it wasn’t even clear if he touched a Tennessee player while swinging his arms high.

“I think my elbow nicked his chin a little bit,” Wilbekin said with a slight grin. “He did a good job of selling it.”

It didn’t matter at the end.

The Gators defeated Tennessee for the third time this season, each one following the same plot line. The Vols held their own in the first half, only to get dominated

by Florida in the second.

The cumulative secondhalf score in the three games was Florida 103, Tennessee 60 — including a 28-14 edge Please see FLORIDA | 11A

Kentucky continues semifinal dominance Associated Press

ATLANTA — The Harrison brothers are clicking at just the right time to have Kentucky in position for another Southeastern Conference tournament title.

Aaron Harrison broke out of shooting slump with 22 points and Andrew Harrison set a career high in assists for the second straight game with nine in Kentucky’s methodical 70-58 win over Georgia on Saturday to advance to the SEC tournament championship game.

Kentucky will play No. 1 Florida in Sunday’s championship game, creating the attractive matchup of the tournament’s two top seeds.

Florida beat Tennessee 5649 in Saturday’s first semifinal.

Kentucky coach John Calipari said he’s not looking forward to a third game against Florida.

Florida’s undefeated regular-season run through the conference included a sweep of two games against Kentucky. Florida took an 84-65 home win over the Wildcats on March 8 to close the regular season.

“I’ve had enough of Florida,” Calipari said, adding “it’s almost an honor to play a team like that.”

The Wildcats improved their record of dominance in SEC semifinals to 38-2.

James Young had 14 points and Julius Randle had 12 points and 11 rebounds for Kentucky (24-9), which never trailed but led only 36-32 at halftime.

Kentucky’s big lead was 16 points at 68-52.

Andrew Harrison, who had 12 points, set his career high in assists again; he had 11 points and eight assists in Friday’s impressive 85-67 win over LSU. “My teammates make me look good right now,” Harrison said. “I’m just finding them and they’re knocking down shots.”

Aaron Harrison had been in a shooting slump before finding his stroke in Atlanta.

In his last four games before the tournament, he made only 11 of 43 shots. Against Georgia, he made seven of 10 shots, including four of seven 3-pointers.

Aaron Harrison gave partial credit to his brother.

“I just knocked down some shots,” said Aaron Harrison.

“My brother got me some great looks and Julius got me some looks.”

Kenny Gaines had 13 points, all in the second half, and Charles Mann had 12 for Georgia (19-13), which now likely will wait for a NIT bid.

Miller eager to rush the QB with his mentor Associated Press

DENVER — Von Miller used to text, call and visit his mentor for pointers on pass rushing.

Now, his teacher is his newest teammate.

Yeah, it’s safe to say the Denver Broncos hybrid linebacker is a big fan of bringing DeMarcus Ware on board.

After all, Miller’s own pass rush moves are inspired by watching Ware terrorize quarterbacks for the Dallas Cowboys, where he had a franchise-record 117 sacks before being released. He can’t wait to listen to Ware’s suggestions

on the field rather than over the phone.

Well, once Miller’s ACL is back to full strength. Miller is currently working out in a pool, but hopes to soon be cleared for some light jogging and bike work.

Then, it’s back to learning under Ware.

“This is great, seeing a guy that I molded my game after,” Miller said Saturday as he took part in a program through his foundation to help identify kids in need of eye care. “Just to be able to pick his brain or how he gets ready for games, how he practices, how he stays

consistent — this is big.”

The Broncos have been on quite a defensive spending spree in free agency, bringing in the 31-year-old Ware, cornerback Aqib Talib and safety T.J. Ward at a cost of $110 million ($60 million guaranteed).

Of course, being on that side of the ball, Miller gave the moves a whole-hearted endorsement. It’s also not a shock the Broncos are concentrating on defense after a 43-8 loss to Seattle in the Super Bowl.

“We had great guys before, but the guys we have now are

big-time players,” said Miller, who turns 25 on March 26.

“This is a huge upgrade. We have guys coming off injuries and when you get a guy like Talib and Ward and Ware, it will solidify the whole defense.”

Miller is coming off a rough season, one in which began with a six-game drug suspension and ended with a torn ACL on Dec. 22. Ware believes he can help get the 2011 rookie of the year on track. They already have a strong bond.

Kelly stars in Cardinals’ win over Braves Associated Press

KISSIMMEE, Fla. — Joe Kelly pitched into the sixth inning and had three hits to help the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Atlanta Braves 6-2 on Saturday.

Kelly went 51⁄3 innings, allowing four hits and a run. He became the first pitcher to have three hits in a spring training game since Chris Volstad did it for the Marlins in 2010.

Kelly singled three times,

drove in two runs and scored twice.

The right-hander made 37 appearances for the Cardinals last season, including 15 starts, and went 10-5 with a 2.69 ERA. He pitched into the postseason and said he feels like a permanent part of the staff heading into the season.

“I went deep into the game,” Kelly said. “I had some quick outs and that should always be a goal for me. I saw the whole

lineup.”

The Braves, still reeling from the possibility of beginning the season without ailing pitchers Mike Minor, Brandon Beachy and Kris Medlen, started nonroster invitee Gus Schlosser, who allowed three runs, two earned, and four hits in four innings. He struck out five and did not walk a batter.

Schlosser was expected to work out of the bullpen this season, but will likely stretch

his arm out in Triple-A at the start of the year as an insurance policy for the starting rotation.

Kelly’s outing was the longest by a St. Louis pitcher all spring. “That was a great performance,” manager Mike Matheny said. “He was trying to be a one-man show today. He was still throwing up to 95-97 (mph) in the sixth and he was still going after the hitters. I liked what I saw.”

5A Boys Callaway 49, Vicksburg 33 Malik Newman scored a game-high 25 points as Callaway (31-1) clinched its third straight state title and sixth championship overall in Friday’s late game.

The Chargers jumped ahead 16-5 by the end of the first quarter and led

28-20 at halftime.

The 6-foot-3 Newman, a junior shooting guard who is one of the nation’s most highly-regarded recruits for his class, made 7 of 14 shots from the field and all nine of his free throws.

Cortez Mitchell and Dontelius Ross each added eight points for Callaway.

D’Angelo Richardson led Vicksburg with 15 points. The Gators (19-9) are still seeking first state title since 2003.

FLORIDA CONTINUED FROM 11A

on Saturday.

Despite the loss, the Vols are confident of their NCAA chances based on one of the nation’s toughest schedules and an RPI in the low 40s.

“I feel like the statement was already made before coming into this game,” Stokes said.

In the first half, at least, Tennessee certainly looked worthy of a spot in the 68-team field. The Vols were the first team to lead Florida by double digits since the first of its two losses, at Wisconsin on Nov. 12.

Wilbekin cut the deficit to seven at halftime with a buzzer-beating 3-pointer, but Florida still went to the locker room facing its second-biggest deficit of the season at the midway point. Not that the Gators were ruffled by being in that position — it was

the eighth time they had trailed at the break, and they’ve now come back to win six in a row.

“I told the guys at halftime, ‘We’ve been in this situation before,’” Wilbekin said. “We know what it takes to win in the second half.”

Tennessee should know. The Vols stayed right with Florida before halftime in both regularseason meetings, only to get blown out 67-41 in Gainesville and fall 6758 in Knoxville.

Wilbekin, Florida’s senior leader, didn’t have his usual stellar game though he did go 3 of 7 from 3-point range. He was definitely off in the first half, throwing up an airball on an off-balance shot from the baseline and barely grazing the rim with another attempt.

But his defense was there all the way.

ment consideration after the game, noting Georgia tied Kentucky for second place in the conference at 12-6. Fox acknowledged his team’s poor start to the season could be too difficult to overcome.

“I realize the body of work argument may put us on the outside,” Fox said, adding he is proud Georgia was at least a contender for an NCAA bid.

“Hopefully we’ll be in the postseason somewhere,” Fox said.

Calipari also lobbied for Georgia, saying the Bulldogs and Tennessee should be in the NCAA field and Arkansas “should be on the edge.”

Kentucky has enjoyed the SEC tournament in “Catlanta” and the Georgia Dome. The Wildcats have won six tournament championships in Atlanta.

Overall, Kentucky has 27 SEC tournament titles.

Kentucky led only 4139, following a driving basket by Gaines for his first points. Young made a short jumper from the baseline, Dakari Johnson stole a pass from Georgia’s Brandon Morris, and Aaron Harrison sank a 3-pointer to push

the Wildcats’ lead to 4639.

Gaines answered with a 3-pointer, but it wasn’t enough to keep the Wildcats from claiming momentum. Young’s tip-in pushed Kentucky’s lead to 10 points at 53-43. Andrew Harrison’s 3-pointer gave the Wildcats their biggest lead at 61-48.

Harrison had 16 points in the first half but Georgia stayed close, trailing 36-32 at halftime on Marcus Thornton’s buzzer-beating layup. It was a rare strong inside move for the Bulldogs, whose attempts near the basket were often influenced by Kentucky’s bigger front-line players, including two 7-footers, Dakari Johnson and Willie Cauley-Stein.

Kentucky forward Julius Randle, who grabbed nine rebounds in the opening 20 minutes, finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds.

Georgia was playing in its first SEC semifinal since 2008, the year a tornado hit downtown Atlanta and forced the tournament to move from the Georgia Dome to Georgia Tech’s old Alexander-Memorial Coliseum. The Bulldogs beat Kentucky in the quarterfinals before winning the tournament.

I’ll be in the same locker room with him, being

able to teach him some things. I’m looking forward to that opportunity.

I just think that it’s going to be great.”

Miller couldn’t agree more. He grew up a Cowboys follower and one of his favorite players was Ware.

Louisville wins 3rd straight title Associated Press

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Rick Pitino switched from coach to lobbyist the moment his Louisville Cardinals won their third straight conference tournament title.

Of course, Pitino thinks the defending national champs deserve a No. 1 seed, even if he knows they likely won’t get one.

Montrezl Harrell had 22 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks, and fifthranked Louisville beat No. 21 Connecticut 71-61 Saturday for the inaugural Amer-

ican Athletic Conference title in the Cardinals’ lone season in the league.

Pitino said he’s extremely biased.

“But I’m very impressed with our guys,” Pitino said.

“What they’ve done to win a regular season, conference tournament the way we have done it, in the fashion we have done it fits the eye test. I can’t talk about the strength of the league.

If you want to blame anybody, blame football. Don’t blame us.”

The Cardinals (29-5) clinched their 40th NCAA tournament berth in style with their 19th overall tournament title. They took the last two in the Big East and added the American to go with their share of the regular-season title with Cincinnati. They will play next season in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

“To win a regular-season championship and a tournament championship back to back is not easy. You have to have special players, and

these two epitomize exactly that,” Pitino said, praising Russ Smith and Harrell.

Smith, named the tournament’s most outstanding player, scored 19 points. He also had five steals to move into a tie for Louisville’s career record with 254. Chris Jones added 11 points.

Smith said he thought a year ago that he had done almost everything a college athlete can, but he wanted to enjoy being a senior on campus and work on his game.

While many once popular wedding traditions might have fallen by the wayside, many others have withstood the test of time. One tradition that has endured is the wedding registry, which is designed to help guests find the right gift for the couple of honor.

Thanks in large part to the Internet, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now easier than ever before to set up a registry. Couples can do so entirely via the Web or visit their favorite store or stores to add items to their registry. But even though registries are easy to set up, it might help couples to consider a few tips before they start clicking or scanning away. â&#x20AC;˘ Register with multiple merchants. Doing so gives guests more options and increases the likelihood that guests can find the store. When choosing merchants, try to choose national stores that guests can access regardless of where they live. â&#x20AC;˘ Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t assume all guests are tech-savvy.

While the Web has made setting up and accessing a registry easier for couples and guests alike, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safe to assume your guest list will include one or two holdouts who have never shopped online. Because of that, couples should still register with a brick-andmortar store instead of only registering online. â&#x20AC;˘ Read the fine print.

Some online retailers are kinder than others.

When establishing an online registry, examine

the retailerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy thoroughly to be sure it does not include substantial service charges or exorbitant shipping fees. â&#x20AC;˘ Vary the options within the registry.

When adding items to the registry, be sure to include items that everyone can afford. Especially nowadays, when many weddings host guests from far and wide, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ideal to include lots of affordable items. That way guests who have already spent considerable money getting to the wedding wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to break the bank further to gift the bride- and groom-to-be.

As for high-end items, keep those to a minimum. Parents, siblings or other especially close relatives might ask to buy those items before you even establish the registry. But it is important to include at least a few expensive items, as some guests might pool their resources and buy these gifts, saving you money while giving them the satisfaction that you got something you might not have been able to afford after paying for the wedding. â&#x20AC;˘ Set up a honeymoon registry. Couples who already have stocked cupboards and linen closets might want to consider a honeymoon registry, which allows guests to donate money toward the coupleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honeymoon.

Wedding registries have evolved, making it easier than ever before for couples to set up a registry their guests can access.

Directing ‘Bad Words’ was ‘privilege’ for Bateman

BY JESSICA HERNDON AP Film Writer

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.

— After audiences see Jason Bateman’s new movie, “Bad Words,” the actor, who makes his feature-film directorial debut with the comedy, will have one question: “Do I need to apologize?”

Best known for his blunt approach and dry sense of humor in the television show “Arrested Development” and in films like “Horrible Bosses,” Bateman’s turn as a revengeful wordsmith who competes against kids in spelling bees is perhaps his most hilarious and crude role yet.

In a recent interview, Bateman said he was attracted to the film, written by first-timer Andrew Dodge, because the humor came from the fact that the characters “were deeply flawed.”

“It takes a certain audience member to ap-

preciate that. There will be plenty of people who do not and that’s absolutely fine,” he says.

In the film, Bateman plays Guy Trilby, a bitter genius who exploits a technicality in the spelling competition’s rulebook: A contestant must not have passed the 8th grade. Since he hasn’t, he’s free to compete. Not only does Bateman’s character beat the youngsters, he also messes with their heads in cringe-worthy fashion.

“This is a film done for a small budget,” says Bateman. “We’re not financially obligated to appeal to 100 million people. That gives us the privilege of doing something a little more challenging to watch.”

Bateman also directed the film, and admits the job, while satisfying and rewarding, came with a set of difficulties.

“It’s like going into

someone’s brain and controlling what they’re thinking and feeling,” he says. “That’s a lot of responsibility. The most challenging part is to illuminate choices and make sure there is some consistency and strategy to the end result.”

Luckily he had pal Ron Howard to call on. The Oscar-winning filmmaker (and “Arrested Development” colleague) was one of the first to see the movie.

“It was a privilege to get that real high level of scrutiny,” says the 45-year-old Bateman, whose first experience behind the camera was as a teen, when he directed an episode of the sitcom he starred in, “The Hogan Family.” ‘‘There really is no wrong way to do this. I just had to be open and let the film be what it wanted to be.”

Co-star Kathryn Hahn, who plays a journalist

and Bateman’s love interest in the film, says Bateman was “confident and calm. There was no chin stroking behind the monitor. You never saw doubt. And he smells B.S. a mile away.”

Hahn noted the firsttime film director’s guidance of the movie’s other co-star, 10-year-old Rohan Chand.

“He was just able to bathe this kid in true confidence,” she recalled.

“He’s been through it all.”

A former child actor, Bateman appeared in shows like “Little House on the Prairie,” ‘‘Silver Spoons” and “The Hogan Family” in the 1980s. Like many child stars, he struggled with drugs and alcohol in his 20s.

“I was just kind of trying to even out the scales between working hard and playing hard,” he says. “I felt it was time to play. I was a kid.”

a number of incredible roles at their fingertips at any particular moment. For the rest of us, the choices are usually pretty obvious: One opportunity is awful and the other is attractive,” he says.

Eager to continue to split time between acting and directing, Bateman says he keeps a close eye on the careers of other successful actors who have also focused on directing, like Ben Affleck, George Clooney and Ben Stiller.

“I’d love to find that balance,” he adds.

He’ll soon get another opportunity to do just that when he directs and stars in the drama “The Family Fang,” opposite Nicole Kidman.

“I’m excited to see if there is anything I can possibly do to help her process,” he says. “I’m lucky access matches with ambition right now.”

AP reporter Bob Thomas, Hollywood veteran, dies

BY HILLEL ITALIE AP National Writer

By early 2000, he was clean and able to land the role of Michael Bluth in “Arrested Development.”

“Without that show I don’t know what I’d be doing today,” he says.

“That job really facilitated another phase in my career.”

He adds: “It was like, now that I’m done playing, I have a career.”

It was also around this time that he married actress Amanda Anka, with whom he has two children. “Adolescence came to a close and adulthood really started for me,” he adds. “It was perfect timing.”

Since “Arrested Development” debuted in 2003, Bateman has appeared in nearly 20 films. Still, he believes he’s only a job away “from never working again.

“There are probably about three or four people that really have

He was the institutional memory for the movies at The Associated Press and a passage for the world to a Hollywood both longed for and long gone.

Bob Thomas, who died Friday at his Encino, Calif., home at age 92, started reporting when Clark Gable was a middle-aged king, Bette Davis was in her big-eyed prime, and Kirk Douglas and Lauren Bacall were emerging stars. “Independent” movies were a rarity during the studio-controlled era and celebrity gossip was dispensed by rival columnists Hedda Hopper and Louella Parsons rather than Internet sites.

Younger reporters knew the names and the credits, but Thomas knew the people and lived the history. He could tell you what Jack Lemmon liked to drink at parties or recall Marilyn Monroe’s farcical inability to show up on time, or speak fondly of his times with “Greg” Peck.

When a story ran, Thomas often heard directly from the stars.

Soon after her marriage to actor John Agar in 1945, Shirley Temple wrote: “John and I want you to know that we are very grateful to you for the manner in which you handled the story on our wedding.”

Thomas worked well into his 80s, covering a record 66 consecutive Academy Awards shows, beginning in 1944. During his nearly seven decades writing for the AP, Thomas reviewed hundreds of films and television shows and wrote numerous retrospective pieces on Hollywood and how it had changed.

Thomas was also the author of nearly three dozen books, including biographies of Walt Disney, Brando and Joan Crawford, and an acclaimed portrait of studio mogul Harry Cohn, “King Cohn.” He wrote, produced and appeared in a handful of television specials on the Academy Awards and was a guest on numerous TV news and talk shows, including “The Tonight Show,” ‘‘Good Morning America” and “Nightline.” His biographies of reclusive billionaire Howard Hughes and the comedy team of Abbott and Costello were made into television movies.

He is listed twice in Guinness World Records: for most consecutive Academy Awards

shows covered by an entertainment reporter and for longest career as an entertainment reporter (1944-2010). In 1988, he became the first reporter-author awarded a star on Hollywood’s Walk of Fame.

Kathleen Carroll, executive editor of the AP, worked with Thomas in the Los Angeles bureau in the early 1980s. “Bob was an old-fashioned Hollywood reporter and he knew absolutely everyone,” she said. “He had a double-helping of impish charm with the stars, but back at the office, he was the quiet guy who slipped into a desk at the back and poked at the keyboard for a while, then handed in a crisp and knowing story soon delivered to movie fans around the world.”

One of Thomas’ biggest stories had nothing to do with entertainment.

Helping out during the 1968 presidential election, Thomas had been assigned to cover Sen. Robert F. Kennedy on the night the New York Democrat won the California primary. Minutes after declaring victory, Kennedy was shot to death in the kitchen of Los Angeles’ Ambassador Hotel.

“I was waiting in the press room for Kennedy to arrive when I heard what sounded like the popping of balloons in the hotel kitchen,” Thomas would recount years later.

“I rushed into the kitchen where men were screaming and women sobbing,” he recalled.

“I jumped onto a pile of kitchen trays and saw Kennedy lying on the floor, his head bloody.”

He ran to a phone and delivered the bulletin to The Associated Press.

As the son of a newspaper editor turned Hollywood press agent, Robert Joseph Thomas seemed destined to become an entertainment writer from his earliest days. In junior high school and high school he wrote entertainment columns for the campus newspaper, and in college his favorite reading was the industry trade paper Daily Variety.

But when he joined the AP in Los Angeles in 1943, it was with aspirations of becoming a war correspondent. Instead, the wire service named him its Fresno, Calif., correspondent, a job he gave up after little more than a year.

“It gets so damn hot in Fresno in the summer and nothing much ever happens there,” he once told a colleague.

He returned to the AP’s Los Angeles bureau in 1944 and was soon named its entertainment reporter. He was also told that the byline he’d been using — Robert J. Thomas — had to go.

“Too formal for a young guy who’s going to work the Hollywood beat,” he said the AP’s bureau chief told him. “From now on your byline is ‘Bob Thomas.’”

Soon he would become a ubiquitous presence in Hollywood, attending awards shows, wandering studio back lots or going from table to table at the Polo Lounge, Musso and Frank and other favored Hollywood hangouts of the day. The gentlemanly, soft-spoken reporter with the wry sense of humor enjoyed access to the stars that modern journalists rarely attain, whether visiting with Nicholson at his home or chatting on the set with Tracy and Hepburn.

“In those days, it really seemed like a playground,” he once said.

But Thomas also had his share of run-ins.

Doris Day and Frank Sinatra went months without talking to him after he quoted them candidly in stories, and Tracy cut off contact for years when something Thomas said about him offended the Oscar-winning actor. The fiercely private Brando never spoke with him again after Thomas published the biography “Marlon.”

His encyclopedic knowledge of the industry was well appreciated by his colleagues. A former AP editor, Jim Lagier, would recall that Thomas had a filing system at his home that rivaled that of any news bureau.

“Because if you call Bob Thomas at 2 o’clock in the morning and say, ‘Bob, Mary Smith has died,’ he would say, ‘Mary Smith,’ and then, suddenly you could hear the filing cabinets were opening. He would start dictating the lead,” Lagier told the AP in 2008 during an oral history interview.

Through the years, Thomas’ enthusiasm for his profession never waned.

“I get to interview some of the most beautiful people in the world,” he said in 1999. “It’s what I always wanted to do, and I just can’t stop doing it.”

Thomas is survived by his wife of 67 years, Patricia; daughters Nancy Thomas, Janet Thomas and Caroline Thomas; and three grandchildren.
