New bill reforms campaign finances

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Tighter guidelines are on the horizon for campaign sending in the Magnolia State.

Lawmakers agreed on a new campaign finance reform bill on

Wednesday with the passage of Senate Bill 2689. The measure will next move to Gov. Phil Bryant for his approval.

Right now, public officials across the state can spend campaign money any way they like,

as long as they pay income taxes on money taken for personal use. Some take large sums when they retire.

Experts say the practice makes campaign contributions perilously close to bribes. Mis-

Statues come to life

sissippi is one of only five states that still allow elected officials to pocket campaign money for personal use during or after their careers.

If passed, the bill would ban lawmakers and other elected

officials from spending money for non-campaign purposes such as a mortgage payment, funerals, clothing, automobiles, tuition or undocumented loans.

Domestic violence trial enters 2nd day began to see changes in his behavior — he would become easily agitated and lash out with words. She said the first physical violence occurred in the week before their wedding.

Defense attorney Clay Nails questioned why she would marry a man if he was harming her.

“Because I loved him,” said Moore.

She said Smith was having trouble finding a job after moving back, and she thought the stress was the reason for his behavior.

She told of an occasion when he slammed her head into the wall and then threw her against another wall, leaving a hole. She described two other instances when he choked her, once lifting her off the floor with his arm around her neck.

The child was allegedly injured when left alone with Smith while Moore was at work. Nails questioned why she would leave the child alone with Smith if she was afraid of him. Moore said her job was the family’s only source of income, leaving her no choice.

The next day, she discovered bruises on the child. She testified that he tried to keep her from seeing the child for as long as possible when she got home from work, telling her to

A bronze statue in the Corinth Contraband Camp appears frozen in time after an ice storm in February, 2015. The statue will come to life in the future thanks to a grant given to the local tourism office.

Grant helps with new camp feature

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

The life-size bronze sculptures at the Corinth Contraband Camp will soon come to life.

The augmented reality project will happen thanks in part to a $10,000 grant awarded to the Corinth Area Convention

and Visitor’s Bureau from the Mississippi Hills Heritage Area Alliance.

“This is a really cool project where basically the statues will come to life in front of visitors via their handheld device,” said Tourism Director Christy Burns. “I believe this may end

up being the first augmented reality project in Mississippi.”

Burns said a video would appear on a visitor’s device while standing in front of a statue.

The video, she said, would explain what the statue depicts.

The trial of a Corinth man accused of child abuse and domestic violence entered its second day Wednesday with his former wife among those taking the witness stand in Alcorn County Circuit Court.

In December 2015, a grand jury returned a two-count indictment accusing Michael Lynn Smith of causing bodily harm to a child under the age of five and strangling or attempting to strangle the woman who was his wife at the time.

The day opened with continued questioning of Heather Russell, the Corinth Police Department detective who investigated the case.

Compared to other child abuse cases she has investigated, “This is the worst case that I’ve seen,” she said.

The alleged victim was three years old at the time of the offense, and Russell said she appeared to be in pain when she met with her.

Testifying for the prosecution, Smith’s former wife, Kelsey Moore of Booneville, described several instances of violence against herself and the discovery of injuries on her daughter.

After the two became romantically involved and Smith moved back to Corinth from Louisiana, Moore said she

Across The State topsy is pending and cause of death is undetermined.

Associated Press

Sheriff says roommate killed man and stuffed him in freezer LATIMER — A Mississippi sheriff accuses a man of killing his roommate and stuffing him in a freezer.

Jackson County Sheriff Mike Ezell tells media that a capital murder warrant has been issued for 40-year-old Thomas Elliot Stafford.

Investigators believe Stafford killed 65-year-old Jerry Floyd Kirkendall sometime around March 3, when a landlord last saw Kirkendall.

The landlord found Kirkendall’s body in an unplugged freezer Monday, saying he was alerted by a horrible smell.

Ezell says Stafford also stole a gold Cadillac from Kirkendall.

The second alleged crime means Stafford could face the death penalty.

Ezell says he believes Stafford has left Jackson County and the U.S. Marshal’s Service is helping search.

Jackson County Coroner Vicki Broadus tells the Sun Herald that an au-

Log cabin from 1920s making its big move in Gautier GAUTIER — A nearly century-old log cabin in Jackson County is making its way to a state park in south Gautier, piece by piece.

The Sun Herald reported that crews Tuesday moved a portion of the Wilson House across Interstate 10 and over Mississippi Highway 57.

The structure, which had been a bed and breakfast near Ocean Springs for years, is headed southeast to Shepard State Park, where it will be a welcome center.

Attorney Brian Britt donated the cabin to the city over a year ago. Its move is part of a $300,000 project to enhance the park.

Built in the 1920s in Gulfport, the two-story house made of southern yellow pine logs is believed to be the largest and oldest of its kind on the Mississippi Coast.

Bonds serves as page A local student recently served as page for the Mississippi House of Representatives. Pages generally run errands for officials and House staff. Carter Bonds of Corinth meets with Speaker of the House Philip Gunn and Rep. Bubba Carpenter, who sponsored his visit. Carter is the son of Paula Bonds and attends Corinth High School. When asked about the week, Carter said, “Being a page was a great honor that gave me insight on how the legislature works.”

“This is a great law that needs to be in place in Mississippi,” said Corinth native Rep. Nick Bain (D-Alcorn.). “Anything that forces lawmakers to be more transparent is a good thing. It shows the public we are here to serve them and not ourselves.”

The measure would require officials to itemize credit card purchases of more than $200 instead of listing lump-sum payments.

Officials could still use campaign money to cover campaign and official expenses, including travel to political and association meetings, car rental and accommodations. It also allows law-

makers to pay expenses connected with legislative sessions that are in excess of what is covered by the $140-per-day expense payment they collect.

Candidates closing campaign accounts would be required to give the money to another political committee or candidate, to a nonprofit group or the state — or to return it to donors.

All four Crossroads area House members voted to pass the bill, including Bain, Rep. Lester “Bubba” Carpenter (R-Alcorn, Tishomingo), Rep. Tracy Arnold (RAlcorn, Prentiss) and Rep. Jody Steverson (DAlcorn, Tippah).

“I voted for it because it’s the right thing to do,”

said Carpenter. “People have donated us this money and it should be used the right way.”

Local Sen. Rita Potts Parks (R-Alcorn, Tishomingo, Tippah) also voted to pass the bill.

The Mississippi Ethics Commission will oversee enforcement and ensure that people and committees file finance reports.

If signed by the governor, the law would go into effect on January 1, 2018.

Bryant spokesman Clay Chandler said the governor believed the bill contains “meaningful reforms” and plans to sign it.

Today in History Today is Thursday, March 23, the 82nd day of 2017. There are 283 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On March 23, 1792, Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 94 in G Major (known as the “Surprise” symphony because of an unexpected crashing chord in the second movement) had its first public performance in London.

On this date: In 1775, Patrick Henry delivered an address to the Virginia Provincial Convention in which he is said to have declared, “Give me liberty, or give me death!”

In 1806, explorers Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, having reached the Pacific coast, began their journey back east.

In 1933, the German Reichstag adopted the Enabling Act, which effectively granted Adolf Hitler dictatorial powers.

In 1942, the first Japanese-Americans evacuated by the U.S. Army during World War II arrived at the internment camp in Manzanar, California.

In 1956, Pakistan became an Islamic republic.

In 1965, America’s first two-person space mission took place as Gemini 3 blasted off with astronauts Virgil I. Grissom and John W. Young aboard for a nearly 5-hour flight.

In 1973, before sentencing a group of Watergate break-in defendants, Chief U.S. District Judge John J. Sirica read aloud a letter he’d received from James W. McCord Jr. which said there was “political pressure” to “plead guilty and remain silent.”

In 1994, Aeroflot Flight 593, an Airbus A310, crashed in Siberia with the loss of all 75 people on board; it turned out that a pilot’s teenage son who was allowed to sit at the controls had accidentally disengaged the autopilot, causing the jetliner to go out of control.

Across the Region Hills Chapel School to launch new pre-kindergarten program HILLS CHAPEL — Hills Chapel Elementary School will add a pre-kindergarten program beginning this fall.

Prentiss County School Board Members gave approval to the program Monday which will aim to boost the academic performance of students by giving them early instruction in key skills including reading and math as well as early exposure to the routine of school and the classroom.

Hills Chapel Principal Nicky Marshall presented the board with a proposal for the program which allows for it to be added at minimal cost. He said he and board member Randy Hugh Maness have been working for several years to find a way to offer the program at the school due to a high demand from parents in the area for the service.

The new program will serve a maximum of 20 students.

Marshall said if more than 20 students apply for the program they will be given a screening test and the students in most need of the assistance based on their performance on the screener will be enrolled.

Maness said the program will provide major benefits for students by giving them an early start on their education and helping get them ready to hit the ground running when they begin kindergarten. He said he’s excited to be able to offer the program and grateful for all of Marshall’s hard work in finding a cost effective way to offer it.

Key to Hills Chapel’s proposal is the existence on campus of a building already set up properly to house the prekindergarten class. Marshall said the building will require only minimal improvements to be ready to operate.

The principal only asked the school board to fund the hiring of a single teacher assistant for the pre-kindergarten program. He will shift a certified teacher currently teaching kindergarten to the position of certified teacher for the pre-k program, avoiding the cost of having to pay for an additional full-time certified teaching position.

McNairy County New app highlights music performers SELMER, Tenn. — McNairy County will continue to honor

their music legends through a new app that will introduce the variety of music performers through the history of the county.

Bryan Huff has developed the free app called “McNairy Trail of Music Legends.”

This app will have music from around two dozen musicians that established Selmer and West Tennessee as a busy place for rockabilly. The music on the app will have the old recordings in their original form.

The Trail of Music Legends was funded through a $9,000 grant from Tennessee’s Arts Commission.

Markers honoring each class of McNairy County Music Hall of Fame inductees will be installed along a walking trail in downtown Selmer later this year. A mobile app will guide visitors on an interactive musical tour of the trail.

Anyone can get this app at the Apple App Store and on Google Play. The app will become active on June 9.

The project is sponsored by Arts in McNairy, in cooperation with Tennessee Arts Commission, McNairy County Chamber of Commerce, Tourism Association of Southwest Tennessee, the City of Selmer and McNairy County.

Ripley Homestead exemption deadline is nearing RIPLEY — Those Tippah County residents who purchased a new home in 2015 or homeowners whose health or marital status has changed have only until the end of March to file their homestead tax exemption.

According to county tax officials, the exemption is a tax break which can save applicants hundreds of dollars.

The dead for application is Friday, April 1.

Monroe County Third person dies after weekend car crash MONROE COUNTY (AP) — Authorities say a third person has died after a multi-vehicle crash in Monroe County.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports that 71-year-old Aline Howell of Azusa, California, died Tuesday at a hospital after the Sunday collision.

Monroe County Coroner Alan Gurley said Howell’s husband, 72-year-old Quincy Howell, died at the scene.

Also killed in the wreck was 20-year-old Lamonica Rupert of Tupelo.

Iuka Duathlon raises funds for Boys and Girls Club IUKA — The Boys and Girls Club of Iuka recently hosted a St. Paddy’s Day Duathlon race.

Participants ran two miles, biked for 20 miles and run an additional two miles during the race.

More than $3,000 was raised for the local club.

Tupelo Ground broken for veterans memorial TUPELO (AP) — Construction has begun on a Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Tupelo.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports a ceremonial groundbreaking at Veterans Memorial Park was held Monday. Tupelo Parks and Recreation director Alex Farned says the memorial should be complete by Veterans Day in November.

The memorial will be a simple, black granite “V’’ about 60 percent of the size of the official monument in Washington, D.C. The idea for a memorial originated when a traveling replica visited Fulton in 2001. A group called the Vietnam Replica Wall Committee formed and started raising funds for the project.

The city donated $150,000.

After years of discussions, the state of Mississippi earmarked $750,000 in bond money for the project.

Vietnam Veterans of America Tupelo chapter President Rex Moody says the memorial will be “a healing wall.”

West Point Young farm couple earns national honor WEST POINT — Mississippi’s agricultural future is safe in the hands of some of the nation’s best farmers. Brad and Molly Judson of Clay County have the award to prove it.

Charlie Stokes, area agronomy agent with the Mississippi State University Extension Service, nominated the winning couple for the National Outstanding Young Farmers award.

The National Association of County Agricultural Agents sponsors the recognition program.

“The award recognizes their progress in an agricultural career, their soil and water con-

servation practices, and contributions to the well-being of the community, state and nation,” Stokes said.

The Judsons were one of four winning couples chosen from 10 national semifinalists for the award. One unique aspect for them is that they did not inherit their farming operation.

“Brad’s dad farmed until the 1980s, so they had some family land, but mostly, they expanded by leasing area land,” Stokes said. “MSU has worked closely with him and vice versa. We have conducted corn and soybean variety trials and corn fungicide research on their farm in past years. We’ve advised Brad as he made irrigation decisions in an effort for the process to be more efficient and provide the best return on investment.”

Brad Judson said surrounding his farm with good people has been a key element in his success.

“Farmers should not be loners; they need to network. This experience with the national award process has driven that home,” he said. “We enjoyed meeting all the other nominees and learning what we have in common, even if from very different farms.”

Brad Judson said several of the other young farmers faced challenges with keeping good employees.

“We have been very fortunate to find great employees that we can trust,” he said. “They are reliable and have a great work ethic.”

Stokes said east Mississippi farmers deserve recognition for their efforts and accomplishments.

“We have some of the best farmers in the country in east Mississippi. They overcome challenges from smaller fields and more travel requirements,” he said. “They need to be recognized for doing a good job and also being very involved in their communities.”

In addition to the Judsons, east Mississippi is also home to state’s 2016 Swisher Sweets/Sunbelt Expo Southeastern Farmer of the Year, Paul Good of Noxubee County.

“The criteria for the young farmer of the year required the nominees be less than 40 years old,” Stokes said. “That really limits the options. Luckily, the Judsons would be great nominees regardless of the age limits. They are always trying to make their farm better and be more efficient.”

Stokes said successful farming depends on smart decisions.

Corinth, Miss.

Building a pyramid of memories PENSACOLA, Fla. —- In one sleepy motion, I hit a snooze button on the hotel’s clock that chums up the sound of breaking waves. Ah, a soundtrack from the past.

Comfort noise.

Rheta My first memories are from Johnson this pastel place, where Cokebottle-colored waves and Columnist blinding sand figured prominently into the idyllic scheme of things. I cherish the Panhandle part of childhood.

I am here on business, at least the kind of business I do, talking to journalism students at a local junior college. They listen, ask questions, scribble notes. They renew my faith in youth, and maybe I encourage them a little.

What I can’t convey is how fast time will go, from first memories to retirement, from untapped potential to regrets. I don’t want to share that. If you knew the truth, who would even try?

Memories build a pyramid same as the one for food. Or maybe it’s an inverted pyramid, like the one they taught us to use in journalism classes.

The best and most vivid memories are on top. My father skiing in the ocean as we watch from the beach. Then I’m sitting next to him as he pilots a small red wooden boat, my family’s first. Eating cheeseburgers at The Shrimp Box drive-in with its grinning carhops and onion-y smells.

I can’t ride by our old house at Number One, Pineview Drive. It isn’t there anymore.

It once stood near Pensacola Bay, a humble cinderblock painted pink. Because it was pink, I assumed we were rich. Pink, after all, is the color of princesses and exotic flamingos. Plus, it had a Florida Room with jalousie windows.

We were not rich, I’d realize soon enough.

Daddy was a butcher at the local Kwik-Chek.

His best friend worked there, too, a man named Sam who often brought my sisters and me presents, once a trio of rubber dolls dressed in tiaras and blue net evening gowns.

Sam’s wife, Margaret, owned the first wind chimes I ever saw, the kind with painted glass shards dangling from threads. Staying busy in the bay breeze, those chimes sounded better than any of the more expensive ones I’d encounter later.

The family across the street had a daughter named Pattycake, I swear on my “Elements of Style.” She wore pinafores and ruffles while we stripped down to our underwear to play in the Florida heat.

Right next door was a bully named Michael who sprayed us with water when we ventured too near the chain-link fence. What a pest.

Most of life was a bowl of citrus, with our red boat, proximity to the ocean and trips to Santa Rosa Island whenever relatives visited.

If the white sand blistered our feet, my father would pick us up and carry us to the blanket or the car.

We toured Fort Pickens, where Geronimo was held prisoner -- in a cavelike cell or in posh officers’ quarters, depending on which history you believe. Our guides back then said he lapped up rainwater off the floor, and I attribute my social conscience to that bleak version.

I rode to the first grade in a bus to discover my teacher was young and pretty, which seemed to matter a lot. She bought our boat when my father was transferred to Alabama and we had to move, which, of course, broke my heart.

How could a charmed family such as ours exist so far from the sea?

Rheta Grimsley Johnson’s most recent book is “Hank Hung the Moon ... And Warmed Our Cold, Cold Hearts.” Comments are welcomed at rhetagrimsley@aol.com.

Prayer for today Lord God, quiet me if I am not calm, that my soul may be able to contemplate and have an opportunity to grow. Help me, that I may be able even in discouragements to have the true perception of life. Amen.

A verse to share “Even now,” declares the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.” Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from sending calamity.

Looking for answers to medical care

BY DR. GLENN MOLLETTE Columnist

Medical care continues to dominate our attention in this nation. I hope we don’t have millions of people without health care in the next year or so. However, in reality we already do.

A fifty-year-old woman told my wife and I that she seriously needs a knee replacement but she can’t pay her deductible and 20%.

Together they would be several thousand dollars and on her waitress salary she can’t afford the surgery.

She has medical care but she can’t afford to have a very needed surgery. If she falls over with a heart attack and is rushed to the hospital then her insurance will of course pick up a major part of her treatment but she will still be stuck with a big medical bill. That would be another crisis. I wonder if her heart would be able to withstand the shock of her medical bill?

The answer to medical care in America is to put everyone 65 and over on Medicare. We pay for it so

we should receive it when the time comes. Make Medicare pay for everything and get rid of the supplemental insurance. We pay into Medicare all of our lives and then have to worry about supplemental insurance at 65. Congress should eliminate that hassle. Medicare should cover everyone over 65. Many will go throughout life and pay very little if any into it. Obviously our country has major debt.

Therefore, we should take some of our foreign aid to cover any who might be left out. The very poor in America should be on Medicaid.

Doctors and hospitals must be required to accept Medicaid patients. I realize they have to make money but a 10 to 15% load of Medicaid patients is not asking too much for a doctor. People with preexisting conditions should be able to buy into Medicare. Allow working Americans to buy medical insurance across state lines so we can shop for affordable insurance that fits our budgets. Open up pharmacies in Canada so we can

shop for cheaper medicines.

Find a cure for cancer.

Give Americans a serious tax break if they keep their body mass index at 26 or below. There is a further question as to whether we should keep poor senior Americans on Medicaid or as I previously said move them into Medicare as well.

If Medicaid covers all medical treatment then it won’t matter. However, if Medicaid is not accepted by all of the medical society then we still have major issues.

Funding Medicaid and Medicare is the major part of this battle. It’s time we start using Casino taxes, marijuana taxes, cigarette taxes, alcohol taxes, fast food taxes, obesity taxes and soft drink tax money to fund Medicare and Medicaid. We could raise a lot of money and probably eliminate having two different systems thus going to one system, which would be a national medical card for those over 65, those with preexisting conditions and the very poor.

Finally, make Congress

shop and buy their healthcare. Limit Congress to five terms and Senators to two terms. Eliminate insider stock trading information, which is illegal for average Americans yet Congress racks up millions over the course of their tenures.

Many of our problems would be solved if Congress had to live like average Americans. Another problem would be solved if insurance company and drug manufacturing company lobbyists are barred from Capital Hill. Congress should be barred from receiving money in any way, shape or form from these people. Maybe then they might make some decisions for the American people instead of what is in the best interests of their financial supporters.

Gorsuch offers a nation of laws, not politics My first experience with Senate confirmation hearings for a Supreme Court justice nominee was in 1991 at the hearings for Clarence Thomas.

I came to Washington with several hundred black pastors from around the country to support Justice Thomas. The hearings were a national embarrassment.

The main focus turned out to be about neither the Constitution nor about Thomas’ jurisprudence.

It was about Democratic senators descending to the gutter and dredging up the most disgusting garbage they could conjure to destroy the man’s character because his jurisprudence was not aligned with their left-wing agenda.

Fortunately, Thomas survived. But the wounds caused to him and the nation by that pathetic display remain.

Now another outstanding conservative judge, Neil Gorsuch, stands for confirmation and Democrats again grasp at straws to besmirch the character of this man and avoid, at all costs, serious discussion about the Constitution and the judicial philosophy and integrity of the nominee.

What we hear is that he is “anti-choice, anti-environment, pro-corpoStar rate,” from Parker S e n a t o r Leahy. And, Columnist from Senator Schumer, that he “harbors a rightwing, pro-corporate, special interest agenda,” siding “with the powerful few over everyday Americans just trying to get a fair shake.”

Along the same lines is a 70-page harangue from the NAACP Legal Defense Fund rationalizing their opposition to Judge Gorsuch.

According to the NAACP, Gorsuch “has regularly favored the interests of the privileged and powerful ... at the expense of equality and inclusion.”

What bothers those on the left so deeply is they do not perceive that Judge Gorsuch favors those whom they want him to favor. In their view, he favors the rich rather than the poor. Business rather than workers.

The majority rather than minorities.

It does not seem to dawn on liberals that Judge Gor-

such favors no one except the American citizenry, and that his singular aspiration is that we live in a nation with fair and objective law carried out by fair and objective judges. Perhaps even more outrageous to liberals is the possibility that Judge Gorsuch may see the law ultimately rooted in eternal and unchanging truths, not made up by a politician or jurist.

We need not look any further than the judicial oath that every Supreme Court justice takes, pledging to “administer justice without respect to persons and do equal right to the poor and to the rich...”

In Judge Gorsuch’s own words: “Judges should be in the business of declaring what the law is using traditional tools of interpretation, rather than pronouncing the law as they wish it might be in light of their own political views.”

The source of the judicial oath taken by Supreme Court justices is the Judiciary Act of 1789, which established the federal judiciary.

It was passed in the first session of the U.S. Congress and signed into law by President George Washington.

And where did the draft-

ers of the Judiciary Act get these standards for behavior for judges -- that they should favor no one?

It is reasonable that the source is the Bible, which proclaims these same standards.

The Book of Exodus says, regarding judges, “Do not follow the majority for evil. ... Do not glorify a destitute person in his grievance.”

And, in Deuteronomy, “You shall not pervert judgment, you shall not respect persons, and not take a bribe.”

What really bothers liberals is that the original text of our Constitution is rooted in an even higher source -the Judge of our judges.

At the conclusion of the Declaration of Independence, the founders appealed “to the Supreme Judge of the World for the Rectitude of our Intentions.”

Judge Neil Gorsuch will extract our law from the whims of politicians. His appointment to the Supreme Court is an important step to “make America great again.”

Court bolsters rights of learning-disabled students

BY SAM HANANEL Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A unanimous Supreme Court on Wednesday bolstered the rights of millions of learning-disabled students in a ruling that requires public schools to offer special education programs that meet higher standards.

The court struck down a lower standard endorsed by President Donald Trump’s nominee to the high court.

Chief Justice John Roberts said that it is not enough for school districts to get by with minimal instruction for special needs children. The school programs must be designed to let students make progress in light of their disabilities.

The ruling quickly led to tough questions at the confirmation

hearing of Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch. Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois said the high court had just tossed out a standard that Gorsuch himself had used in a similar case that lowered the bar for educational achievement.

In its ruling, the Supreme Court sided with parents of an autistic teen in Colorado who said their public school did not do enough to help their son make progress. They sought reimbursement for the cost of sending him to private school.

The case helps clarify the scope of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, a federal law that requires a “free and appropriate public education” for disabled students.

Lower courts said even programs with minimal benefits

can satisfy the law.

Roberts said the law requires an educational program “reasonably calculated to enable a child to make progress appropriate in light of the child’s circumstances.” He did not elaborate on what that progress should look like, saying it depends on the “unique circumstances” of each child. He added that there should also be deference to school officials.

“When all is said and done, a student offered an educational program providing merely more than de minimis progress from year to year can hardly be said to have been offered an education at all,” Roberts said.

“For children with disabilities, receiving instruction that aims so low would be tantamount to sitting idly awaiting the time

mus against children, senator, would be a mistake,” Gorsuch said.

Later, Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., pressed Gorsuch again, saying he added the word “merely” to the standard “to make it even more narrow.”

Gorsuch responded: “I disagree.”

Disability advocacy groups argued that schools must offer more than the bare minimum of services to children with special needs.

The ruling does not go as far as the parents wanted. They had argued that educational programs for disabled students should meet goals “substantially equal” to those for children without disabilities. Roberts rejected that standard, saying it was “entirely unworkable.”

when they were old enough to drop out.”

At Gorsuch’s hearing, Durbin said the nominee had gone beyond the standards of his own appeals court by adding the word “merely” in his 2008 opinion approving the “de minimis” — or minimum — standard for special needs education. Durbin suggested that Gorsuch had lowered the bar even more.

Gorsuch, handed a copy of the ruling during a break on the third day of his hearings, noted that his panel reached its decision unanimously based on a 10-year-old precedent.

Durbin also said Gorsuch had ruled against disabled students in eight out of 10 cases dealing with the IDEA. “To suggest I have some ani-

Leaders need votes on eve of health bill showdown Former exec convicted in deadly outbreak

BY ALAN FRAM AND RICARDO ALONSO-ZALDIVAR Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Their top legislative priority dangling in peril, President Donald Trump and Republican leaders cajoled recalcitrant GOP lawmakers Wednesday to back their health care overhaul. A day ahead of a long-awaited House showdown roll call, conservatives insisted they had the votes to torpedo the measure and the number of lawmakers publicly expressing opposition snowballed.

Trump huddled at the White House with 18 lawmakers, a mix of supporters and opponents, Vice President Mike Pence saw around two dozen and House GOP leaders held countless talks with lawmakers at the Capitol. The sessions came as leaders rummaged for votes on a roll call they can ill afford to lose without wounding their clout for

the rest of the GOP agenda.

Asked by reporters if he’d keep pushing a health overhaul if the House rejects the measure, Trump said, “We’ll see what happens.”

In a count by The Associated Press, at least 25 Republicans said they opposed the bill and others were leaning that way, enough to narrowly defeat the measure. The number was in constant flux amid eleventh-hour lobbying by the White House and GOP leaders.

Including vacancies and expected absentees, the bill would be defeated if 23 Republicans join all Democrats in voting “no.”

Most opponents were conservatives asserting that the GOP legislation demolishing former President Barack Obama’s health care law did not go far enough. They insisted it must repeal the law’s requirements that insurers pay for specified services like maternity care and cover

all comers, including the sickest, which they say drive up premiums.

Moderates were daunted by projections of 24 million Americans losing coverage in a decade and higher out-of-pocket costs for many low-income and older people, as predicted by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.

For now, the White House and House leaders showed no sign of delaying their legislation, their initial attempt to deliver on a pledge to erase Obama’s law they’ve repeated since its 2010 enactment.

Underscoring the delicate pathway to victory, participants in the Pence meeting said there were no visible signs of weakened opposition and described one tense moment. Rep. Randy Weber, R-Texas, said White House chief strategist Steve Bannon told them: “We’ve got to do this. I know you don’t like it, but you have to vote for this.”

House revolts against DeSoto County delegation JACKSON — After badgering city officials for weeks to get acceptable tax bills to the House floor, DeSoto County representatives saw both bills defeated.

The two bills suffered overwhelming defeats Wednesday. It’s extremely unusual for such local bills to be voted down, with legislators usually passing bills dealing with other members’ districts nearly unchallenged.

Jeff Hale, a Republican from Nesbit, says fellow DeSoto House members have a habit of voting against their colleagues’ local bills, and other representatives took revenge. Hale didn’t present either bill.

One of the bills defeated would have extended Southaven’s sales tax on restaurant meals. Southaven Alderman Joel Gallagher says the tax is essential for projects like a baseball field and senior

Biloxi to close 6 train crossings after collision BILOXI — The city council in Biloxi has approved a plan to close six railroad crossings in the city.

Biloxi had already been planning to close a half-dozen of its 29 railroad crossings before a CSX freight train hit a tour bus, killing four and injuring dozens on March 7. The crash focused more attention on the 29 crossings in the city.

The Sun Herald reports the city councilors at a Tuesday meeting approved closing six of the crossings.

Biloxi Mayor Andrew Gilich said 29 rail crossings is “too many crossings for Biloxi.”

Investigators with the National Transportation Safety Board say a preliminary report on the crash that killed four Texas tourists should be ready within a few Ask about our

Lawmakers pass plan for faith-based advisory council JACKSON — Lawmakers have given final passage to a plan sought by Gov. Phil Bryant to set up an advisory council on faithbased initiatives Senators on Tuesday approved changes made by the House to Senate Bill 2514 . It creates the framework for the council, which Bryant requested in his State of the State speech.

The council is supposed to make suggestions to Bryant and lawmakers about what government could do to enhance the work of religious charities.

Some lawmakers questioned whether the bill would violate constitutional prohibitions against establishing religion, but the bill specifically bans such moves.

Supporters say some social problems can be better addressed by using non-government resources.

Associated Press

BOSTON — The former head of a Massachusetts pharmacy was acquitted Wednesday of murder allegations but convicted of racketeering and other crimes in a meningitis outbreak that was traced to fungus-contaminated drugs and killed 64 people across the country.

Prosecutors said Barry Cadden, 50, ran the business in an “extraordinarily dangerous” way by disregarding unsanitary conditions to boost production and make more money.

Cadden, president and co-founder of the now-closed New England Compounding Center, was charged with 25 counts of second-degree murder, conspiracy and other offenses under federal racketeering law.

After five days of deliberations, the jury refused to hold Cad-

den responsible for the deaths and cleared him on the murder counts.

He was found guilty of racketeering, conspiracy and fraud and could get a long prison term at sentencing June 21.

The 2012 outbreak of fungal meningitis and other infections in 20 states was traced by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to contaminated injections of medical steroids, given mostly to people with back pain. In addition to those who died, 700 people fell ill. Indiana, Michigan and Tennessee were hit hardest.

Joan Peay, 76, of Nashville, Tennessee, suffered two bouts of meningitis after receiving a shot for back pain.

She wept upon learning the verdict.

“He killed people and he’s getting away with murder. I am furious,” she said.

Trump feels ‘somewhat’ vindicated following Nunes’ intel briefing Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Communications of Donald Trump’s transition officials — possibly including the incoming president himself — may have been scooped up in legal surveillance but then improperly distributed throughout the intelligence community, the chairman of the House intelligence committee

said Wednesday.

In an extraordinary set of statements to reporters, Republican Rep. Devin Nunes said the intercepted communications do not appear to be related to the ongoing FBI investigation into Trump associates’ contacts with Russia or any criminal warrants.

Nunes, who served on Trump’s transition team,

JESUS AND SINNERS From beginning to end, the Bible discusses the fact that men and women are sinners. You likely are familiar with verses like Romans 3:23 that affirms, ”All have sinned , and come short of the glory of God.” Even to those who were already Christians, the Apostle John said, “If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.” (I John 1:10) Sin is universal, but thank God, the story does not end there. Just as surely as the Bible speaks of sin, it speaks of a Savior. It is worthy of note that when the angel of the Lord came to Joseph to announce that Mary, the virgin to whom he was espoused, was to conceive, and bear a son, he affirmed, “thou shalt call his name Jesus: for he shall save his people from their sins” (Matthew 1:21) The coming of Jesus into the world was a matter that had been foretold centuries before it became a reality.

(Matthew 1:22) The purpose is set forth at the very beginning of the gospel story. Jesus came to provide a remedy for man’s greatest problem: sin. That purpose is also affirmed in the teaching of Jesus.

The Pharisees questioned the disciples of Jesus about why he ate with publicans, (tax collectors) and sinners. Jesus said, “They that are whole need not a physician, but they that are sick……for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” (Matthew 9:11-13) At the home of Zacchaeus, he again spoke clearly of His mission: “For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.” (Luke 19:10) Earlier, the Pharisees and scribes said about Jesus, “This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.” It is then that Jesus talked about a lost sheep, a lost coin, and a lost son, to illustrate the great care and concern God has for the lost, and the rejoicing that occurs when “one sinner repents”. (Luke 15) The purpose of Jesus, and his love for us as sinners, is, perhaps, most vividly portrayed in his sacrifice at Calvary. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life“. (John 3:16) “But God commendeth his love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:8) Dear friend, Jesus loves you, and died to save you and me. You are not alone and without hope. Jesus came to save. We invite you to study and worship with us at the Danville church of Christ.

said he believes the intelligence collections were done legally but that identities of Trump officials and the content of their communications may have been inappropriately disseminated in intelligence reports.

“What I’ve read bothers me, and I think it should bother the president himself and his team,” Nunes said Wednesday after briefing Trump privately at the White House.

Trump said he felt “somewhat” vindicated by the revelations, despite the fact that Nunes said the new information did not change his assessment that the president’s explosive claim that Barack Obama wiretapped his New York skyscraper was false.

Shortly after being briefed by the California congressman, Trump told reporters: “I very much appreciated the fact that they found what they found.”

Nunes notably did not appear alongside Rep. Adam Schiff, the intelligence committee’s top Democrat.

It was unclear whether Trump’s own communications were monitored.

Nunes initially said “yes” when asked if Trump was among those swept up in the intelligence monitoring, but then said it was only “possible” that the president’s communications were picked up.

Nunes said the information on the Trump team was collected in November, December and January, the period after the election when Trump was holding calls with foreign leaders, interviewing potential Cabinet secretaries and beginning to sketch out administration policy.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian You don’t want to miss features about Paxton Hinton and Lisa Leach coming in the Crossroads Magazine - Family edition in the Saturday, March 25 Daily Corinthian. There will also be columns by Josh Webb and Mary Linda Moore, plus a travel article about “Rocket City” - Huntsville, Ala.

Husband suspects his wife’s bar pal is more than a friend D E A R ABBY: I’ve had a feeling my wife is about to leave me for another man.

Abigail For the last Van Buren few months he has been c o m i n g Dear Abby to the bar where she works and saying stuff to her.

I don’t know what he says, but he has also been texting her and posting things on her Facebook page.

She told me he’s only a friend, but since he has been coming around at her work, she’s been really cold to me at night.

What should I do?

She told me I need to get help because I’m jealous of him. — JEALOUS IN OREGON DEAR JEALOUS: I think “help” would be a good idea.

Tell your wife you’re willing to get some on the condition that she come with you.

It’s called marriage counseling, and clearly you both are in need of some.

Your doctor can refer you to a licensed therapist.

Also, if you have a religious adviser, make an appointment to talk with him or her.

If your wife refuses, do both of these things without her.

Please don’t wait.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 15-yearold sophomore.

People in my class openly share their opinions and act disgusted when a slightly older man and a younger woman are together, or vice versa.

I get offended when my classmates make these comments because my mom is 39 and my stepfather is 27.

They love each other very much, and I don’t think age should interfere.

Am I oversensitive because I’m offended by these comments? — AGE IS JUST A NUMBER DEAR AGE: Becoming offended solves nothing, unless the comments are made specifically about your mom and stepdad.

It’s my observation that people with little life experience tend to be judgmental about things they know nothing about, and 15-year-olds are no exception.

Perhaps when your classmates are older, they’ll realize that people don’t fall in love “by the numbers” and that it’s a mistake to generalize.

DEAR ABBY: When I was growing up, I was always told

to remove my shoes when visiting another person’s house, especially if they have new flooring.

Now that I’m an adult and building a new house, I would like to ask people to remove their shoes upon entering my home.

I have young children and expect family with other small kids will visit.

I’d like to keep the floors clean and maintain their good condition.

Would it be tacky or rude to ask this of visitors? — SHOELESS IN ST. LOUIS DEAR SHOELESS: I don’t think so, but some people may. In Japan, removing one’s shoes before entering a dwelling is customary.

The soles of shoes are covered with germs, and if small children crawl around on your floors, it’s not too much to ask.

Be sure to warn prospective guests in advance so they can bring their own slippers, or keep a supply of them by your front door.

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).

The spirit of adventure is rather obviously alive in you. You’ll raise eyebrows and get other kinds of attention from people who wish they had the guts to take on life the way you do today!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You don’t get to choose your family, your colleagues or your neighbors. When you can be friends with someone who also happens to be a person you didn’t choose, it really feels like the universe is on your side.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’ll make something interesting happen socially, something that no one was expecting. Because of you, the other person feels empowered to take a risk.

This is getting good.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

If one person is calling all of the shots, no matter how brilliant this person may be, the situation will not be as stable as a scene with a few diverse leaders who can balance one

another.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). There is magic in your writing. You can really use it today in a number of possible directions. Writing things down can make them more real, easier to let go of or harder to forget.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You can’t be completely known, because you’re not one definitive way. Different environments and people pull out new sides of you. Today it will feel like you’re deciding who to be with every little choice you make.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

No one likes to be criticized, but right now you really want to know you’ve been seen, that others are trying to understand what you do. If they have a critical opinion, it will ultimately inform and help you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

The events you’ll deal in today may only be important to the players involved. Outsiders wouldn’t understand. There’s a good feeling attached to know-

ing you are on the inside.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There will be a great level of complexity to your dealings.

There will be rules to follow, stated and unspoken. The more sensitive you are to the latter kind, the less you’ll have to abide by the former kind.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You may not be in the mood to “be yourself” today, and if you want to be someone else for a while instead, you’ll find a way to do this playfully and ethically.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Destroying someone’s illusions is just as damaging as destroying personal property.

To respect a person is to respect the mythology that the person lives within.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

There’s pleasure in work and work in pleasure. Right now it will be easier for you to extract the joy from difficult endeavors than it will for you to take the difficulty out of joyful endeavors.

Business

Low mortgage rates and a solid job market have helped drive sales of new U.S. homes steadily higher.

Sales rebounded in January after a steep fall-off the previous month, reaching a seasonally-adjusted annual rate of 555,000. That’s 5.5 percent higher than a year earlier. Economists predict that home sales continued to accelerate last month.

The Commerce Department releases its February new home sales data today.

Bridesmaid reciprocity is important WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I’m engaged to a man who is the love of my life, and I couldn’t be more ecstatic.

My fiance, “Anthony,” proposed last week. We’ve tentatively set the date for next spring, and now I’m starting to do some preliminary wedding planning. I’m facing a dilemma regarding bridesmaids.

I’m the youngest of five siblings, and I’m the only girl. Yes, I have four elder brothers. (To answer the question almost everyone asks upon learning that fact, no, they were not overprotective of me.

In fact, they teased me quite a bit.) Anyway, all of my brothers are married, meaning I finally have some sisters. I was a bridesmaid in all four weddings and the maid of honor in one of them. I’m not extremely close with any of my sisters-in-law, but I love them, of course.

They’re family.

My conundrum is that I also have four best friends — two from high school and two from college — whom I would like to be my bridesmaids. They’re like sisters to me, too. Only one of them is married so far, but I was a bridesmaid in her wedding.

Now to the problem: Do I have to ask my sisters-inlaw to be my bridesmaids?

Or can I just ask my friends? I know that some brides today have eight (or

Dear Annie more) bridesmaids, but I’d like to keep it to four.

I have no idea what the etiquette here is. I’ve read things online saying that you should pick whomever you want because it’s your wedding, but I could use some objective and realistic advice. Thanks in advance. — Always a Bridesmaid, Now a Bride Dear Always: Do you have to ask your sisters-in-law to be bridesmaids?

No. Should you? Yes, if you want to promote harmony in your family and grow closer with the women your brothers married.

I know I’ll hear from readers insisting that reciprocity is not a stipulation of being a bridesmaid. Just because a bride included you in her wedding party does not mean you have to return the honor. I completely agree with that. But this is family. Though your sisters-in-law would probably not hold any grudges if you didn’t ask them, I’m certain they would forever be touched by the gesture if you did. Your best friends

should understand that better than anyone.

Dear Annie: “Tired of Wedding Freeloaders” does not appreciate wedding guests who attend the festivities but who give a gift whose value is less than the cost of their participating. She considers a gift of $100 for two people an insult. Her opening sentence questioned how many times you go out to eat and expect a free meal.

Your answer — to invite loved ones because you love them and want them there — was adequate, but I feel it didn’t go far enough. “Tired” needs to realize that when people go out to eat, they always choose a restaurant they can afford. When they attend a wedding, their only choice is to go or not to go.

They have no control over the venue or the menu or the cost. Weddings can be simple or extravagant, but the bride is usually the one who makes most of the decisions. If the math does not work for her, she needs to scale back her wedding plans and/or invite fewer guests. — Imagine Dear Imagine: I absolutely agree with you, and I’ve advised other brides that way in the past. Thank you for adding that sentiment here.

The awards are given annually to outstanding student-athletes in the various sports in which the program is active and their respective teams are eligible for NAIA postseason competition.

The Southern States Athletic Conference in which Blue Mountain competes had a total of 25 student-athletes named to the prestigious list.

“We always encourage our

women’s basketball players to strive for excellence,” BMC head coach Lavon Driskell said. “Academics is a part of that standard of excellence. I am so proud of these young ladies and their academic accomplishments. Until you have been there, you don’t understand the demands on their time. This is not an easy accomplishment. Again, I am so proud of the standard they have continued to set in academics and the sacrifices they have made to be a NAIA Scholar-Athlete.”

Blue Mountain Athletic Director Will Kollmeyer

stated: “I’m so proud of the four young ladies from our women’s basketball team who were recognized for their achievements in the classroom, as well as on the court. That’s the most of any basketball program in the conference, men or women, and places us second overall in the SSAC. We place so much emphasis on academics at Blue Mountain College and that includes those who participate in our athletic programs. This kind of recognition really validates what we’re all about as an institution.”

NFL looking to speed up games The Associated Press

NEW YORK — For all those NFL fans longing for more action, fewer interruptions and a better flow to games, Commissioner Roger Goodell is with you.

The NFL is making plans to speed up the pace of games, including changing how video replays are handled and using a time clock for extra points.

The league also is discussing with the TV networks how to make commercial breaks less intrusive.

“I watch a lot of football as a fan and as commissioner,” Goodell told The Associated Press on Wednesday after sending a letter to fans outlining the proposals.

“I see when I am watching on TV or at a stadium that there are opportunities to make the game more compelling from a fan standpoint.”

For officiating replays, the referee no longer would go under a hood to watch a play. Instead, a tablet would be brought to him on the field and he would consult with league headquarters in New York. The final call would be made in New York.

Support by 75 percent of the 32 team owners would be needed at next week’s annual meetings for passage of the proposals.

In addition to a time clock for PATs when there is no TV break, the league is considering instituting a play clock after a touchdown.

Also, to improve the flow of games on the field and for television audiences, commercial breaks during the quarters would be reduced from 21 per game to 16 (four per period), al-

though each would last 30 seconds longer.

There also is a break at the end of the first quarter and another at the end of the third.

Teams also would not be allowed to make a challenge late in a commercial break, meaning no more scenes of a referee telling the TV audience when it returns that a video review will now take place — and then the network goes to another commercial.

If a team decides to challenge a call at that time, the review would be done during the commercials.

The most significant change might be centralizing officiating decisions on replays, a system that has worked well for the NHL. NFL officiating director Dean Blandino and his New York staff have been involved in the process for years, but the referee has always been the final arbiter on such calls.

“We did centralized replay with our office involved for two seasons,” Goodell said, “and this is one step further where we’re going to allow the New York office to make the final determination.

We think this is very smart. We still provide for the referee’s input, but instead of going under the hood, he’ll use the tablet to see the play, and speak to Dean and have their voice.

We want the referee involved when we look at replays.”
