Corporate leaders from Coca-Cola North America toured Corinth on Wednesday.

Corinth Coca-Cola Bottling Works welcomed several executives including Rudy Salas, the new senior vice president of franchise operations in the

United States.

“I have heard many things about this area of the country,” said Salas, who formerly worked with Coca-Cola Latin America. “The history of this bottler is unmatched in the county — Corinth is a cradle for Coca-Cola.”

Salas spent most of Wednes-

day in the field with local CocaCola representatives visiting with businesses.

“This is a wonderful town with wonderful people,” Salas added. “I’m so glad places like this exist in the Coca-Cola family.”

Animal shelter hosts spring celebrations

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

The Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter is kicking off spring in a big way.

Shelter staff and volunteers will host a double Spring Celebration event on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the shelter and at Tractor Supply Co. in Corinth.

“We’ll have a lot going on to celebrate the return of spring at both locations,” said volunteer director Charlotte Doehner. “Hopefully we will be able to raise some money, gain some donations and find furever homes for some of our animals.”

Reduced rates will be offered on certain cats and dogs at both

sites throughout the day.

“There are a couple of litters of puppies that are ready for adoption — we will have a few of those guys at Tractor Supply, along with some adoptable cats,” added Doehner.

Special adoption rates will be offered on certain animals at both locations. Certain dogs will be available for $40, while certain cats will be available for $20.

“We’ll be hosting a car wash at the shelter on Saturday, as well,” Doehner added. “The weather should be clear and with spring in the air, it’s a perfect time to get the car washed.”

Tickets for a couple of upcoming fundraisers will also be

The car tag will feature the shelter’s new motto, “for the love of the animals,” and a new colorful shelter logo.

The cost of the tag is $31, with $6 going back to the state and $1 going to Alcorn County.

The remaining $24 will go back to the shelter. If the shelter can pre-sale 300 tags, it would generate a $7,200 shelter donation each year.

Prosecutors, suspects awaiting trial in murder-for-hire case Associated Press

GREENWOOD — Prosecutors are working to get a trial date for two men involved in a murder-for-hire scheme that targeted a Greenwood attorney.

Assistant District Attorney Timothy Jones said that his office will meet with defense attorneys for the two men to try to schedule a trial date once the Leflore County Circuit Court session resumes in April.

Derrick Lacy, 28, and Cordarious Robinson, 25, are each charged for

their roles in a shooting at the law office of Lee Abraham.

Prosecutors said the murder-for-hire plot ended April 28, 2012, with the death of gunman Keaira Byrd and the serious wounding Lacy.

Byrd allegedly was hired to kill attorney Lee Abraham, who represented Smith’s ex-wife in their divorce years ago. Abraham was not hurt.

Greenwood oncologist Arnold Smith, 73, who was the alleged instigator of the failed plot, has been committed to a state

hospital to undergo treatment for mental illness.

Lacy is charged with capital murder for Byrd’s death and conspiracy to commit murder for the alleged plot against Abraham. Authorities said Robinson, who’s been charged with conspiracy to commit murder, reportedly was paid $15,000 by Smith to help locate and hire the gunmen.

Judge Breland Hilburn, who presided over the criminal case against Smith, will also hear the cases against Robinson and Lacy.

Vandals damage lone abortion clinic in state

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — Jackson police are trying to find out who damaged a generator and two security cameras at Mississippi’s only abortion clinic.

Clinic director Shannon Brewer said Tuesday that employees of Jackson Women’s Health Organization found the vandalism when they arrived at work Monday morning.

The state requires the clinic to have a generator in case power fails, and

Brewer told The Associated Press that the clinic remains open while the generator is being repaired.

“The generator looks like somebody took something and beat on it real bad and cut some of the wires on it,” Brewer said.

Officer Colendula Green, spokeswoman for the Jackson Police Department, said no suspects had been identified as of Tuesday.

Brewer said the security cameras outside the clinic, which are not required by the state, are also be-

ing replaced. She said one was pulled down and its cords were cut, and the other was bent on its support frame as if someone had tried to pull it down.

The last footage taken by the cameras shows one person walking outside the clinic in the rain after midnight Sunday, Brewer said. The person was wearing tall boots, pants and a sweatshirt with the hood pulled up.

Brewer estimated the damage to the generator and cameras at $5,000 to $10,000.

Budget writers increase their spending estimates Associated Press

Several executives from Coca-Cola North America visited the area on Wednesday. The group included Rudy Salas, the new senior vice president of franchise oOperations in the United States. Corinth CocaCola Bottling Works staff members led the group on a tour of Corinth and spent most of Wednesday in the field visiting with local businesses and customers.

JACKSON — Mississippi lawmakers will have slightly more money to disperse among government programs as they put the final touches on a state budget in the next few days.

The Joint Legislative Budget Committee met Wednesday and increased the estimates of how much money the state can spend during fiscal 2015, which ends June 30, and during fiscal 2016, which begins July 1.

Committee members added nearly $102 million to the estimate for the current year and $30 million for the coming year.

The state-funded portion of the budget will be more than $6 billion for this year and next.

The higher revenue estimates are based on experts’ consensus that the state economy is improving.

House and Senate negotiators face a Saturday deadline to agree on budget proposals.

COKE CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

One of the few remaining privately owned Coca-Cola distribution companies in the United States, the Corinth operation was founded in

1907.

The company is still owned by the same family today.

“Mr. Salas is interested in customer service,” said chairman Sandy Williams. “He’s very ex-

cited to get out into the field and see how we can expand our customer base and theirs.”

Williams said executives from Coca-Cola visit Corinth often.

“They are here more

often than most people think,” he said. “We actually host a meeting in May each year where we invite officials for a tour of the city and our operations. Mr. Salas plans on returning then.”

Education alternative challenged in court Associated Press

JACKSON — An Oxford school patron is asking a Hinds County judge to remove from the November ballot an alternative proposed by the Legislature to a citizen-sponsored education funding initiative.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports the lawsuit was filed Tuesday in circuit court

by Adrian Shipman of Oxford, a mother of two in the Oxford School District.

Shipman argues in court documents that the language recently approved by the attorney general’s office is not a true reflection of legislative intent.

Shipman argues the legislative alternative “creates significant risks of confusing the electorate.”

A group called Better Schools, Better Jobs organized the petition drive after years of education spending falling short of what’s required by the a budget formula called the Mississippi Adequate Education Program.

The Legislature adopted its own version of the proposal.

Both proposals will be put to voters in November.

Lawmakers have only fully funded MAEP twice, in the election-year sessions of 2003 and 2007.

They also voted for full funding in the 2008 and 2009 sessions, but midyear budget cuts during

the recession kept that from happening. Since then, Mississippi has come up more than $1.5 billion short of what the formula says is necessary to meet midlevel academic standards.

Education advocates have been fiercely critical of MAEP shortfalls.

Districts represented by former Gov. Ronnie Musgrove sued to reverse underfunding and ask a judge to prevent it from happening again.

The ballot initiative calls for an “adequate and efficient system of public schools.” The Legislature’s alternative ballot measure calls for “effective” schools.

Under the state’s initiative law, a person is allowed to challenge the language of any legislative alternative to a citizensponsored initiative. And the judge has 10 days to rule on whether the language must be changed.

According to James Keith, a Ridgeland attorney representing Shipman, the judge’s decision cannot be appealed.

“This legislative alternative is meant to confuse voters into killing the real school-funding initiative, Number 42,” Keith said in a news release. “Mrs. Shipman appealed its official wording because she believes voters must be able to tell the difference between the real initiative and the decoy initiative.”

Corinth High presents ‘Legally Blonde’

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Today is Thursday, March 26, the 85th day of 2015. There are 280 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlights in History: On March 26, 1945, during World War II, Iwo Jima was fully secured

by U.S. forces following a final, desperate attack

by Japanese soldiers.

Former British Prime Minister David Lloyd George, 82, died in Ty Newydd, Llanystumdwy, Wales.

On this date: In 1812, an earthquake devastated Caracas, Venezuela, causing an estimated 26,000 deaths, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.

In 1874, poet Robert Frost was born in San Francisco.

In 1892, poet Walt Whitman died in Camden, New Jersey.

In 1917, the Seattle Metropolitans became the first U.S. team to win the Stanley Cup as they defeated the Montreal Canadiens.

In 1934, Britain enacted a Road Traffic Act reimposing a 30 mileper-hour speed limit in “built-up areas” and requiring driving tests for new motorists.

In 1958, the U.S. Army launched America’s third successful satellite, Explorer 3.

In 1964, the musical play “Funny Girl,” starring Barbra Streisand as Fanny Brice, opened on Broadway.

In 1979, a peace treaty was signed by Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin and Egyptian President Anwar Sadat and witnessed by President Jimmy Carter at the White House.

In 1982, groundbreaking ceremonies took place in Washington D.C., for the Vietnam Veterans Memorial.

In 1990, “Driving Miss Daisy” won the Academy Award for best picture; its star, Jessica Tandy, was named best actress.

Daniel Day-Lewis won best actor for “My Left Foot” while Oliver Stone was honored as best director for “Born on the Fourth of July.” Designer Halston died in San Francisco at age 57.

In 1997, the bodies of 39 members of the Heaven’s Gate technoreligious cult who’d committed suicide were found inside a rented mansion in Rancho Santa Fe, California.

One year ago: Osama bin Laden’s son-in-law, Sulaiman Abu Ghaith, was convicted in New York for his role as al-Qaida’s fiery chief spokesman after 9/11.

(He was later sentenced to life in prison.)

For the Corinth High School drama department, the school year started off on a sad note.

Just a few days into the 201415 school year, one of the department’s beloved cast members, junior Austin Digby, passed away in a car accident.

“We had a really tough start — losing one of our cast members was very hard on all of us,” said fourth-year drama teacher Kelly Treadway. “Austin was a great kid and was some one the other students looked up to. We have really missed him and his smile.”

Treadway said Digby was excited to have a major role in the competition play the students performed last fall.

CHS competed against 16 other schools in the North Half.

“We advanced to state with the play and did it all in memory of Austin,” added Treadway.

The school’s first play since DigStaff photo by Zack Steen by’s accident is scheduled for this Jordan McDuffy as Kyle the UPS Man gets comfortable with Avery Little’s Paulette in Corinth High School’s performance week.

“Legally Blonde — the Musical” of “Legally Blonde — the Musical.” The play premieres topremiers tonight at 7 p.m. on the night at 7 p.m. on the CHS auditorium stage.

Attorney General candidate Mike Hurst visited with Corinth business leaders Wednesday morning as part of a swing through Northeast Mississippi which also includes stops in Iuka, Starkville, Oxford and Southaven.

Hurst is the Republican nominee for attorney general.

“Mississippi needs more than a part-time attorney general,” Hurst said. “Mississippi needs an attorney general who

won’t be absent in the face of public corruption.

I can do better. I’ve prosecuted corruption in Mississippi and I will stand up for our Constitution and values, not just give them lip service. I will stand against federal overreach.”

In Corinth, Hurst visited with about 20 local business leaders from the city and county.

Tuesday night, Hurst spoke at a Tishomingo County Republican Party dinner in Iuka.

“This is a huge show that spotlights some of our strongest performers,” said Treadway. “I think those attending will have a great time.”

Tryouts for “Legally Blonde” were a little harder than normal, according to Treadway.

“We had kids running around the stage, singing ‘Row Row Your Boat,’” she said. “The students who could do that several times without giving up, I knew had enough energy to be in the show.”

Based on the Broadway hit and the popular 2001 movie staring Reese Witherspoon, the CHS version features a large ensemble cast of 9th-12th graders.

Letter to the Editor

Halfway Shelter continues recovery To the editor: The Halfway Home Animal Shelter in Booneville would like to show some appreciation toward citizens of Alcorn County for their support of our shelter after the fire in the Kitty Kottage last week. We were overwhelmed with gratitude at the tremendous response we received from the plea for help.

Our generous donors provided us with donations of monetary value, food, blankets, kitty kennels, water and feeding bowls, carpet covered stairs, kitty condos, scratching poles, toys, kitty litter and liners, puppy pads and storage bins.

Everything we asked for was gladly brought in to us.

It was a sad week and one filled with many tears, but the caring individuals who have given us so much has helped lessen the pain.

God bless each one of you for your caring hearts.

Renowned art on display at MSU STARKVILLE — At the Mississippi State University Mitchell Memorial Library’s John Grisham Suite for the next three months, Mississippian have an opportunity to experience one of the most important private African American art and history exhibits in the world in the form of the Kinsey Collection – the life’s work of Bernard and Shirley Kinsey of Pacific Palisades, California.

Perhaps more valuable, Mississippians will also have an opportunity to learn more about the Kinsey couple and their son, Khalil, who is the general manager of exhibit operations. The Kinseys are a remarkable family who have turned what was at first a young son’s questions about his heritage into a lifelong passion and a subsequent mission to share the collections with others.

Reflecting on Mississippi’s tragic history on questions of race and civil rights, Kinsey said after arriving in Starkville: “A lot of AfricanAmerican history has been forgotten and never told, so the idea is to get those stories out. That’s what this is about — bringing these stories out so we can give personality, a voice and a name to these accomplishments ... People are going to leave saying, ‘I didn’t know that. I

didn’t know that.’”

Kinsey, a retired Xerox executive and philanthropist, said that Sid Salter his experiColumnist ence is that when people are given complete and accurate information, change follows.

“Mississippi State is a university that realizes that the world is looking forward, not backward. The people here understand that. We’re extremely pleased to have an opportunity to share our collection with the people of Mississippi.”

CBS Sunday Morning writer Caitlin Johnson in 2010 described the Kinsey Collection as “an eclectic collection of artifacts that traces the history of Africans and their descendants in North America.” When not on display around the country, much of the collection is housed in the Kinsey’s home.

The private collection contains more than 100 original and authentic historical artifacts, documents and works of art that tell a story of the African-American experience from the 1600s to the present.

The Kinsey Collection has been on national tour since 2007, and has been seen by over 4 million visi-

tors. The collection has exhibited at the California African American Museum, the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, the DuSable Museum of African American History, the Norton Museum of Art, the Mary Brogan Museum of Art and Science, and the Smithsonian National Museum of American History.

The collection has been cited in 3 national awards including the President’s National Award for Museum and Library Services.

A portion of the exhibit is also on display in the American Adventure Pavilion at Epcot, Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida through 2018.

Highlights of the “African American Treasures” display coming to MSU include an early copy of the Emancipation Proclamation and a signed copy of Brown v.

Board of Education. Also, rare works from early 19th century African American artists will be displayed.

The Kinsey family were on campus to celebrate the opening of the exhibit at MSU. Bernard Kinsey will speak at a 3 p.m. public presentation on Sunday, March 22 in Lee Hall Auditorium to offer insights into the respective pieces on display at the university, as well as why he and his wife are so passionate about gathering

items for the collection.

The collection is presented by the Bernard and Shirley Kinsey Foundation for Art and Education. The organization seeks to educate the public about African American history by highlighting African American accomplishments over time, closing societal and cultural gaps between African Americans and other populations, and eroding the stereotypes undercutting equality.

‘Record high underfunding’ for K-12 schools OXFORD — Money, by far, isn’t the only woe for some public schools in Mississippi, but pick a headline anyway: 1. “Legislature Approves Record Cash To Support K-12 Education.”

2. “Legislature Again Ignores Own Mandate, Underfunds Schools By $211 Million.”

Both are accurate.

100 percent.

Last week, the state Senate by a 49-2 vote gave final approval and sent to the governor a bill appropriating nearly $100 million more real dollars for public schools. The total will be $2.2 billion to be added to local taxes, federal dollars and assorted other money to pay for the education of about 490,000 students during the next school year.

It’s an election year. The 90-day lawmaking season is winding down in Jackson.

Getting K-12 funding out of the way was smart public relations. It took the topic off the table and out of the vigorous debates that sometimes arise during end-ofsession hoopla. Out of sight, out of mind.

Sen. Terry Burton, RNewton, put it this way in The Clarion-Ledger. “K12 education is a priority.

We’re funding it first. We’re funding it more than it has ever been funded before.”

Unspoken was the fact that the Legislature again disregarded the legal obli-

gation it gave itself to “fully fund” public elementary and secondary schools.

LawmakCharlie ers haven’t Mitchell changed the statute that Columnist directs the Department of Education to plug enrollment and other figures into formulas to determine the total amount of cash needed to provide “adequate” schools. They just ignored it.

Had the Mississippi Adequate Education Plan been followed, the appropriation would have increased by another $211 million.

Some, including Sen. Hob Bryan, D-Amory, certainly noticed. “I would encourage you to talk to your superintendents, talk to your school board members, talk about what’s going on,” he told his colleagues. “They laid off teachers. They have fewer teachers now than they need. They’re doing things they have to do when there’s not enough money to operate school districts.”

So where is Mississippi doing a good job in education? According to many sources, Mississippi is doing better than most states in equalizing funding among school districts. Those with scarce local resources are getting extra help.

But still not enough as required by law, which is at the

core of the citizen initiative that will allow voters in November to bypass the Legislature and of a separate lawsuit filed by several school districts against the state.

Let’s assume that every school superintendent in Mississippi is given a bottomless checkbook. And let’s ask a question: Would that, of itself, make schools better?

The answer is no.

Witness that the bestfunded school district in the nation with the highest-paid teachers (Washington D.C.), is among the worst performing. Witness the range within the 150 or so public school districts in Mississippi. All have about the same money to spend per-student. Some generate top-achievers, have low dropout rates. Others can’t avoid repeated state takeovers for misfeasance and malfeasance.

Once in a while it’s important to talk about this, to state flat-out that $200 million or $200 billion more for public schools would, of itself, fix nothing.

The recipe for effective schools does include sufficient funds, which by its own standards the Legislature is not providing. But there are infinitely more variables, prime among them parental and community support along with appreciation for the value of education, a sense among students and families that a high school diploma is worth earning.

World Wide Web: www.dailycorinthian.com To Sound Off: E-mail: email: news@dailycorinthian.com Circulation 287-6111 Classified Adv. 287-6147

This is what has been lost in failing locales.

The recipe for getting it back is simple to describe, but challenging to put into practice. First, get rid of the assumption that all whitemajority districts in affluent areas are peachy and all black-majority districts in poverty areas are abysmal.

That’s not accurate.

Next, look at the best practices in the districts that are hitting on all (or most) cylinders and translate or mimic or apply those same practices in struggling districts.

This approach would take energy, initiative and dedication. It would take a relentless commitment to excellence and a zero tolerance for excuses. In sum, it would take a lot more than money. And it would not happen overnight.

If there is any common grounded between those who are adamant that schools are underfunded and those who are proud of the state’s financial commitment, it should be this: Money is an essential ingredient in education. But it is not the only ingredient, not by a long shot.

We all know this. It’s just that when the topic of education funding comes up, we tend to act like money matters most.

Across the Nation Associated Press

Obama ready to sign doctor payment fix WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama said Wednesday that he’s ready to sign good bipartisan legislation to fix Medicare’s doctor payment problem, without endorsing any specific legislation.

Without a fix, doctors face a 21 percent cut in Medicare fees, the consequence of a 1990s budget law that Congress has repeatedly waived.

The House is expected to vote Thursday on a bill with rare support from both top leaders in the House that would permanently fix the problem. Obama backed the idea of a fix at a White House event marking this week’s five-year anniversary of his signing the Affordable Care Act, while stopping short of backing the House compromise.

“As we speak, Congress is working to fix the Medicare physician payment system. I have my pen ready to sign a good bipartisan bill,” he said.

Asked later if that means Obama would sign the House bill, White House press secretary Josh Earnest said the administration doesn’t have a position on it. But Earnest said the White House puts “a lot of stock” into Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi’s position in support of the legislation.

Homeland Security No. 2 accused WASHINGTON — The No. 2 official at the Homeland Security Department improperly intervened on behalf of foreign investors seeking U.S. visas in three cases involving prominent Democrats, including a company run by the youngest brother of likely Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Rodham Clinton, the agency’s inspector general said Tuesday.

Investigators said Homeland Security Deputy Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas helped efforts to secure the visas in ways that created the appearance of favoritism and special access and caused resentment among career government employees, managers and lawyers.

The agency’s inspec-

tor general, John Roth, said he could not suggest a motive for Mayorkas, a longtime Democrat who served on President Barack Obama’s transition team after his 2008 election and was U.S. attorney in California under President Bill Clinton. Roth did not accuse Mayorkas of violating any laws and acknowledged that Mayorkas sometimes declined to become involved in cases because he said he did not think it would be appropriate.

Mayorkas, who at the time was head of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, said in a statement that he disagreed with the inspector general’s findings but that “I will certainly learn from it and from this process.”

HJ Heinz buys Kraft to build food giant NEW YORK — Some of the most familiar names in ketchup, pickles, cheese and hot dogs are set to come under the same roof after H.J. Heinz Co. announced plans Wednesday to buy Kraft and create one of the world’s largest food and beverage companies.

The deal would bring together an array of longtime staples in American kitchens, including Oscar Mayer lunchmeats, Jell-O desserts, Miracle Whip spreads, Ore-Ida potatoes and Smart Ones diet foods.

The combination of the two companies — each more than a century old — was engineered by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway and Brazilian investment firm 3G Capital, which teamed up just two years ago to buy Heinz. While shoppers are not expected to see any major changes, the creation of The Kraft Heinz Co. reflects the pressures facing some of the biggest packaged food makers in the U.S. As consumers increasingly migrate away from popular packaged foods in favor of options they consider less processed, companies including Campbell Soup, General Mills and Kellogg have been slashing costs or striking deals to update their products offerings.

The Heinz-Kraft deal is in many ways just the

latest example of that, although Buffett noted that the two companies still have a strong base of customers.

Lee novel cover design unveiled NEW YORK — The cover for Harper Lee’s new novel will surely remind you of the cover for her old one.

On Wednesday, HarperCollins unveiled the jacket art for Lee’s “Go Set a Watchman,” the unexpected follow-up to her classic “To Kill a Mockingbird.” The new cover, like the one for “To Kill a Mockingbird,” is a moody illustration featuring an oak tree in front. The art for “Go Set a Watchman” also shows train tracks and a train in the distance.

In a statement released by HarperCollins, company President Michael Morrison noted that “Go Set a Watchman” begins with “Mockingbird” protagonist Scout Finch returning by train 20 years later, in the 1950s, to her native Alabama.

HarperCollins announced a first printing of 2 million copies and a July 14 publication date.

Reported kidnapping victim found HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — A woman who was reported abducted from the San Francisco Bay area and held for ransom was found safe Wednesday at a relative’s Southern California home, police said.

Denise Huskins, 29, was at a relative’s Huntington Beach home and was being interviewed by local detectives, Huntington Beach police Officer Jennifer Marlatt said. The woman contacted her father earlier in the day, Marlatt said, adding she had no further details.

Huskins’ boyfriend told police she was abducted Monday from the Mare Island home they share in Vallejo, northeast of San Francisco and about 400 miles north of Huntington Beach.

Aaron Quinn, 30, called police at about 2 p.m. that day to report Huskins was forcefully taken in the middle of the night and the intruders demanded a ransom. It’s unclear why Quinn took so long to alert authorities.

Associated Press

Man to plead guilty in meth conspiracy GULFPORT — A Carriere man is scheduled to plead guilty March 31 to federal charges of conspiring to distribute more than 50 grams of methamphetamine to Pearl River and Hancock counties.

The Sun Herald reports 55-year-old Gerald Calhoun originally pleaded not guilty to the charges. His attorney notified the court that he would change his plea.

U.S. District Judge Louis Guirola Jr. will hear the change of plea in Gulfport.

His co-defendant, Jaron Stubbs, 27, of Picayune, is scheduled for trial in June.

A federal grand jury indicted the two men each on one count of possession with intent to distribute meth and three counts each of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute meth.

According to court records, Calhoun allegedly dropped the drugs off to buyers and Stubbs supplied the drugs.

Court records show that in May, investigators obtained audio and video recordings of the sale of $1,000 in crystal meth at a Waveland home.

Police: Texting drivers beware BILOXI — South Mississippi law enforcement officials say they will be ready to enforce the new law that bans motorists from texting while driving.

“All you’ve got to do is stand on a corner watching traffic or watching others while you drive, and you can see so many people with their hands on their phone, trying to get a text or send one,” Jackson County Sheriff Mike Ezell told The Sun Herald.

“If it will help save one life, it’s worth it. I think it’s good for everybody,” Ezell said. “Deputies won’t be allowed to do it, either.”

Effective July 1, it will cost you $25 if you’re caught reading, typing or sending a message on a hand-held mobile phone or other electronic device while operating a vehicle.

The fine will increase to $100 on July 1, 2016.

Mississippi is the 45th state to ban texting while driving. Previously, the state banned texting only

for new drivers under 18 and for school bus drivers.

“I’ve worked three texting fatalities myself,” Mississippi Highway Patrol Cpl. Benjamin Seibert said. “You hold that phone and you know their text was the last thing they saw before they crashed.”

Tupelo OKs new police headquarters TUPELO — The city of Tupelo will spend about $8 million on a new headquarters for the police department.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports the bid was awarded Tuesday to West Brothers Construction Company.

Police Chief Bart Aguirre said the two-story building will bring most of the department’s employees and services under one roof for the first time in years.

Work on the 34,000-square-foot facility is expected to take about 18 months.

Plans for a new facility date to two city administrations ago, when city leaders issued bonds for a new police headquarters but never took action.

Instead, city leaders waited years for a federal investigation related to a contraband cigarette operation ended. Tupelo police assistance with the FBI and other entities resulted in the city acquiring $1.5 million and four acres of land at the future site of the headquarters.

Candidate to forgo salary if elected BILOXI — Cono Caranna told a crowd of supporters he is seeking election as Biloxi’s next

mayor and if elected, he will serve without pay.

Caranna, who served as Harrison County district attorney for 26 years, told supporters Tuesday “public service is about service.”

The Sun Herald reports the Biloxi City Council last week asked if the mayor’s $115,000 annual salary could be lowered to help city finances.

Caranna receives a state pension.

Other candidates in the April 28 special election are Andrew Gilich, Councilman Felix Gines, Councilwoman Dixie Newman and Harrison County Supervisor Windy Swetman. Councilman Paul Tisdale plans to announce his candidacy Thursday.

Nesting created for least terns GULFPORT — The Harrison County Sand Beach Authority is building some newly protected nesting areas just in time for the least terns’ annual trip to the Mississippi Coast.

The project cost about $19,000. Funds came from a Mississippi Department of Marine Resources tidelands grant.

Authority director Chuck Loftis tells The Sun Herald about 6,000 feet of fence is being installed along the beach for two secure nesting areas for the birds.

Sarah Pacyna, with the Audubon Mississippi Coastal Bird Stewardship Office, says least terns migrate from South America to Mississippi in mid-April and stay until mid-August.

She says the beach in Mississippi, stretching from Biloxi to Pass Christian, is a hotspot for the terns.”

Video supports assisted suicide Associated Press

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — In a video taken 19 days before her assisted suicide death, Brittany Maynard tells California lawmakers that no one should have to leave home to legally kill themselves under a doctor’s care.

The recording was released Wednesday, hours ahead of a Senate

health committee hearing on the issue.

Maynard, 29, had terminal brain cancer and moved with her family to Oregon before killing herself last year in a death that drew widespread attention and has since recharged legislative efforts to make it legal for terminally ill patients to kill themselves with life-ending drugs.

WINNING THE BATTLE OVER TEMPTATION Make no mistake about it: Satan is extremely cunning and crafty. He never ceases his efforts to win us over. Our Lord reminded his disciples, “Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat. (Luke 22:31) That has not changed, yet as powerful as he is, we can defeat him and his power in our life by following the example of Jesus when he was tempted.

The text of Matthew four indicates that by using the word of God when Satan tempted him, he was able to turn away the fiery darts of the adversary. The psalmist said, ‘Thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee. (Psalm119: 1) Jesus repeatedly turned Satan away with a ready response from holy writ. “It is written� is still effective in fending off the evil one. Study it. Learn it. Hide it in your heart. Use it vigorously against Satan and sin, for it is indeed the “ sword of the Spirit�

(Ephesians 6: 17) Jesus was also effective in overcoming temptation because he repeatedly resisted the evil Satan put before him. He pushed back. How hard do we resist temptation?? How easy it is to just throw in the towel, give up, and “follow the multitude to do evil.� It might even be fun, and pleasurable for the moment.

Push against Satan. Be like Moses who “chose to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season.� It may not be easy or popular, but you will grow stronger spiritually and God will be pleased with your choice. It is never wrong to do the right thing. You will be proud you did. Jesus said, “Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you.�(James 4:7,8a) If you want to send Satan packing, resist him. And remember, “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape that ye may be able to bear it. (I Corinthians 10: 13) To the extent possible, if we will stay away from things that entice and put forth a genuine effort we can win the battle over temptation.

Let’s pick up our Bibles and read them, and, in humility, ask God for strength and wisdom to help us push back. “This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.� (I John 5:4) We invite you to study and worship with us at the Danville church of Christ

Official: U.S. to charge Bergdahl with desertion Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Army sergeant who abandoned his post in Afghanistan and was held captive by the Taliban for five years will be courtmartialed on charges of desertion and avoiding military service, a U.S. official said Wednesday.

Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl will also be charged with misbehavior before the enemy, said the official, who was not authorized to discuss the announcement on the record and spoke only on condition of anonymity.

The charges are the lat-

est development in a long and bitter debate over Bergdahl’s case, and underscore the military and political ramifications of his decision on June 30, 2009, to leave his post after expressing misgivings about the U.S. military’s role, as well as his own, in the Afghanistan war.

Desertion can carry a maximum penalty of death, but most military officials have said they believe that is not likely in this case.

The U.S. military planned an announcement at Fort Bragg in North Carolina, which is expected to

+PFcT 4IPFT ),//025( 67 s &25,17+ 06

3+21(

include the location of the court-martial.

After leaving his post, Bergdahl was captured by the Taliban and held by members of the Haqqani network, an insurgent group tied to the Taliban that operates both in Pakistan and Afghanistan.

Last May 31, Bergdahl was handed over to U.S. special forces in Afghanistan as part of an exchange for five Taliban commanders who were imprisoned at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

After spending about two weeks recuperating at a U.S. military hospital in Germany, Bergdahl was sent to Brooke Army Medical Center at Fort Sam Houston in Texas on

June 13. He has been doing administrative duties at the base, awaiting the conclusion of the case.

The exchange set off a debate over whether the U.S. should have released the five Taliban members, who could return to the battlefield.

Sen. Roger Wicker, RMiss., a member of the Armed Services Committee, was asked by reporter Wednesday whether the charges raised doubts about the initial trade of Bergdahl for the Taliban members. “I would think that it would raise doubts in the mind of the average American if those doubts weren’t raised already,�

‘The Gunman’ keeps you on the edge of your seat “The Gunman,” R, *****, Sean Penn, Jasmine Trinca, Javier Bardem. Director Pierre Morel, Anton Capital Entertainment, Length 115 minutes.

Terrier (Sean Penn) is a sniper, and it is obvious he does not care for his occupation. However, he is an excellent gunman.

Terrier and his partners are in the Congo. After he terminates his target everything falls apart. He leaves the Congo and his girlfriend Annie (Jasmine Trinca). They are in love, but he realizes she would be in danger.

His partners are all killed and he is the only one left.

Annie is a humanitarian worker who loves Terrier, but she does not know what or why

he left. His job keeps him from telling anyone about what he does or why he does it.

His boss Felix Terry (Javier Bardem) Burns is in love with Annie, and she Movie Critic does not understand what happened to her real love Terrier.

Eight years go by and Terrier decides to find out more information about what happened.

The film keeps the audience on the edge of their seats from the beginning, but now Terrier really turns up the heat.

Terrier looks tired and sad.

He has lots of reasons for his looks and other problems.

Sometimes actors can use their facial expressions for the audience to see the dilemma that is taking place within his or her thoughts.

Unfortunately, Murphy’s Law takes over from the beginning until the last minute of the film.

I assume everyone knows about Murphy’s Law, but in the event some do not know it is “Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.” Believe me it gets rough with lots of shoot-’emups, fights, and chases.

“The Gunman” is an excellent film for those who enjoy action and edge of the movie seat as they are glued to every scene

Cow defies the odds, gives birth to 4 calves

BY BETSY BLANEY Associated Press

LUBBOCK, Texas — A cow in Northeast Texas has apparently defied great odds and given birth to four calves that have been named Eeny, Meeny, Miny and Moo. Jimmy Barling said Monday that DNA tests will be done on tissue samples from the three bull calves and the one heifer calf to satisfy those who may question the births from one mother.

“We knew she was pregnant, but we didn’t know she was going to do this,” the 76-year-old Barling said. “This was a shock.

This blew our minds.”

Barling’s wife, Dora Rumsey-Barling, owns the couple’s 20 or so cattle outside of DeKalb, near the Arkansas and Oklahoma borders. RumseyBarling’s granddaughter named the four black calves Eeny, Meeny, Miny and Moo, Barling said.

Local veterinarian Mike Baird called the March 16

births “extremely rare.”

He said the odds of four live births from one cow are 1 in 11.2 million. Baird knows the couple well and is nearly certain the four came from one mother, rather than a nearby cow perhaps birthing one or two and then moving along so that it appeared the four came from the Barling’s cow.

“In the interest of science and the animal world, it’s one of those things that need to be verified beyond a shadow of a doubt,” he said.

The couple watched the birth of the fourth calf after going to check on her when they saw buzzards circling above a field.

Because the mother cow is unable to nurse all four calves, the couple are relying on neighbors to help. Moo has stayed with her mother, while Eeny, Meeny and Miny are with two different caretakers.

Meeny is the smallest of the calves, weighing in at about 25 pounds.

and every word. It is definitely an action packed film with lots of violence, and surprises.

Terrier does not like to kill, but it is his job. For someone who does not like his job, he certainly is excellent at his profession. He knows how to take care of bad guys.

I do not want to give away any surprises in the film, but I think that anyone who enjoys this kind of film will like “The Gunman.”

Just remember this it is just a movie. It is for entertainment. I watched cowboy movies at the Ritz Theater in Selmer, Tennessee, years ago. Most small towns closed their theaters years ago. It is just a movie for

Warning: Do not mess with Melvin the alligator

entertainment only.

I never lost my love for movies, and I do not plan to stop watching. Now there are some movies I do not like, but I try to avoid them. Sometimes I am not sure about a movie, and I become disappointed, but I try to watch the movies that I like, and hopefully some of the readers will like or after reading the review, they might just say, I do not want to see that one.

We all have our likes and dislikes, and that is how it should be.

Dad’s Mississippi Delta farm was so remote that walking in any direction brought one closer to civilization. Large drainage canals crisscrossed the area, providing ideal habitat for creatures that would have been at home in the Jurassic Era: bullfrogs, catfish, moccasins, beavers, loggerhead turtles, fish eels, and alligators.

My boyhood best friend and mentor, Jaybird, told terrifying tales about the canals, hoping to keep us away from them. He knew that if we got in trouble, we’d be too far out in the boondocks to get help in time. His stories about the canals’ alligators were the most frightening of all, especially the one about Jaybird and Melvin were fishing in a canal’s sharp turn known as “NoBottom Bend.”

Melvin’s line got hung, and he waded out to untangle it. Suddenly the surface erupted, and ridged, spiked lines following a giant, gaping, tooth-filled jaw, torpedoed toward him. In a heartbeat he disappeared.

“You reckon that gator is still alive?” I asked. The old black man assured me the monster male, whom he named Melvin in memory of his friend, was not only alive, but

also bigger and meaner than ever.

My pals and I set out to capture Melvin. According to Jaybird, NoBottom Bend got its name because the canal’s sharp curve created a constant swirl of vortices that bored deep into the earth, making an ideal home for Melvin.

We shade tree engineers came up with an idea. We’d steal a can of carbide from Dad’s shop and make a bomb. (Back then, calcium carbide, which reacts instantly with water and gives off a highly inflammable gas, was used in acetylene cutting torches.) We’d pour it into a glass jug, seal its neck with a cork, weight it with bricks, and lower it to the bottom with a strong cord. Then, we’d run the cord through a piece of iron with a hole drilled in it, let it zip down the cord and burst the glass, which would cause an instant explosion.

Eagerly, we fabricated the bomb, fantasizing about dragging the blood brute of the deep to Jaybird’s doorstep. We set up operations on a large culvert that poked out over No-bottom Bend, lowered the jug into the water, ran

the cord through the hole in the iron, and dropped it.

Instantly, following an earth-shaking seismic doomsday rumble, a geyser the size of Old Faithful erupted skyward, throwing fish, snakes, turtles, and mud in every direction. Terrified, we fled for our lives. In his office at the farm headquarters a mile away, Dad heard the noise and came out to investigate. Unable to find its source, he assumed it was a sonic boom, and forgot about it.

Later that day, we went back to the bend, but found no trace of Melvin. When we told Jaybird what we’d done, he said, “All y’all did wuz make dat ole man-killuh pow’ful mad. He’ll be layin’ fuh y’all fum now on.

Heed dis warnin’: Don’t mess wit’ Melvin no mo’!”

Buyback binge Howd it do it? Oracle ’s net income was lower last quarter than a year earlier, but its earnings per share were the same.

It wasn’t magic, just math.

The technology giant bought back tens of millions of shares of its stock over the last year. That means Oracle is divvying up its total net income over a smaller number of shares to compute its earnings per share, resulting in a boost. That’s key because a stock’s price tends to follow its earnings per share.

Oracle isn’t alone. Companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index spent $553 billion on stock

buybacks last year, up 16 percent from 2013, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices.

More importantly, the majority reduced their total number of shares outstanding, pushing up earnings per share. Companies have the flexibility to make these purchases because they’re sitting on record amounts of cash.

To be sure, companies aren’t always the savviest purchasers. They’ve historically bought their own stock when prices were high and held off when prices were low. S&P 500 companies spent a record $589 billion on buybacks in 2007, for example. In 2009, when stock prices hit bottom, they bought back just $138 billion.

Pumped up Companies across the S&P 500 spent more on stock repurchases in 2014, led by Apple. $553

Tough quarter?

Wall Street anticipates that ConAgra Foods’ latest quarterly earnings declined versus a year earlier.

The food company, which owns brands such as Chef Boyardee and Hebrew National, is due to report fiscal third-quarter financial results today. Last month, the company reduced its outlook for the year, citing the impact from the strong dollar on its profits and the fallout from the West Coast ports labor dispute.

Reader asks how to assist two nieces WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I am very concerned about my brother’s daughters, ages 18 and 20. My brother and his wife divorced when the girls were young. He and his ex do not get along and communicate poorly. She often berates him, and he remains silent. Their daughters were shuttled back and forth between their parents’ homes, but they lived mainly with their mother. Last fall, she announced that she had had enough and the girls would now live with their father while they attend college nearby.

The girls have been with my brother and his wife for several months, and they are miserable. They have no friends there.

They communicate very little with their father and stepmother and remain in their bedrooms most of the day. My brother’s wife has reached out to them, to no avail. The older girl is doing well in school, but the younger one dropped out. She promised to get a job, but hasn’t found one yet. I don’t think she is very motivated.

My brother buys his daughters whatever they want, but they have little respect for him.

He buries his head in the sand when it comes to the problems in his home. My nieces have no direction and little self-esteem. The atmosphere in their house is toxic, and I can’t stand

Annie’s Mailbox by and do nothing. What do you suggest? — Concerned Aunt Dear Aunt: We can tell that you care a great deal about your nieces, but they are both adults. They do not need to live with their father unless they choose to. Dad seems quite willing to support them financially, and their stepmother has tried to help. If the atmosphere is as toxic as you say, both girls would be eager to relocate.

We think a lot of this is the girls’ choice and unconnected to Dad’s home. If you truly want to help, please spend more time with your nieces, either in person or online. See what’s going on. Perhaps you could give the younger one pointers on finding a job.

She may be unmotivated because Dad doesn’t demand that she find employment, which he should.

At the very least, you would be another source of emotional support for them.

Dear Annie: When my

husband and I married, his family let me know they didn’t like me. He already had an ex-wife, and their two children were the only ones who counted.

My husband and I adopted several children of various races and nationalities. It amazed me that my in-laws acted as though I had adopted them by myself, “burdening” my husband, when, in fact, he loved them unconditionally. We loved all of the children, including the kids from his first marriage.

Our children picked up on the fact that the grandparents cared little for them. My husband seldom visited them because of it.

When he died, I found his mother’s obituary, which he had hidden from me.

I was hurt all over again when it listed by name two surviving grandchildren and “five stepgrandchildren.” —Over It Now Dear Over: In situations like this, it is always the grandparents who lose out. How sad for everyone.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Don’t miss Crossroads Magazine 2015 Spring Edition, coming Saturday, March 28.

Short-cut cooking is source of guilt for busy new wife D E A R ABBY: I am a full-time w o r k i n g woman, parttime student and new wife to an incredAbigail ible husband.

We’re in Van Buren our mid-20s and have Dear Abby been living together for a year, but I have a problem that I’m still unsure about.

Growing up I never learned to cook. The first meal I ever made was spaghetti when my husband (then fiance) and I moved into our home.

My issue is, I HATE cooking.

I don’t have the patience for it and neither does my husband.

Should I be ashamed that I indulge in “box” dinners that take little time to prepare?

Naturally, I cook meat and vegetables to go along with them, but is it shameful when a wife doesn’t cook everything from scratch?

My husband doesn’t mind, but I worry.

Shouldn’t a wife cook real meals for her husband? -- NEW WIFE IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR NEW WIFE: Because many couples both work, many husbands and wives take turns

cooking or prepare dinner together. (”Honey, I’ll do the salad and vegetables; you fix the chicken/fish/chops on the grill.”)

The problem with prepackaged meals is that many of them contain more sodium and/ or other additives that nutritionists say are bad for one’s health when consumed on a regular basis, so I think you do have cause for concern.

The most important ingredient in a lasting marriage is a partner who lasts, so if you want yours to last, be vigilant about what you put in your stomachs.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 29-yearold woman and I have been with my fiance, “Gary,” for three years.

We became engaged six months ago.

When I brought up wedding ideas recently, Gary responded with, “There are things that have to be resolved before I can even think about getting married.” In the discussion that followed, he said I need to get a betterpaying job so I can contribute to the renovations on the house, buy my own personal items and have a shorter commute.

I’m hurt because I believe marriage is about committing to the person you love.

I also realize you can’t live on love alone.

Am I overly sensitive about this?

Is Gary’s request reasonable, or do you think he’s just looking for an excuse not to get married? -- LOVE ABOVE ALL IN NEW YORK DEAR LOVE ABOVE ALL: Pay attention to what your fiance said because it appears he has unilaterally mapped out your future for you.

This sounds less like a request to me than a demand.

Open your eyes and keep talking with him.

Did he specify whether your name will be on the deed to the house you will contribute to renovating?

(I hope so.)

I also hope you will be lucky enough to find a higher-paying job with a shorter commute, because not everyone is able to do that.

Because I believe in both love and practicality, I think it’s important you and Gary have premarital counseling together to clarify whether you’re on the same page regarding finances.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Try new things, even if you’re pretty sure you won’t like them.

A too-limiting belief about what kind of person you are will restrict the range of experiences you could be enjoying.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

The rotten-apple theory suggests it only takes one to spoil the bunch. Someone who lacks integrity is a danger to the group. Take courage and stand up against those who are on the wrong path.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If your mood dips, your mind may become occupied with concerns that weren’t there when you were feeling good. Keep worry at bay by continuing to do the things that contribute to a high level of positive energy.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

The old rule won’t apply, and the new rule hasn’t been made yet. While things are in flux, take this opportunity to shake things up. Bonus: You’ll expand your network in the process.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Just

because someone is not on your wavelength doesn’t mean you shouldn’t at least try to communicate. Your efforts to connect will be meaningful and will lead to gains in the distant future.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

If you don’t act when you see the opportunity, someone with less experience and wisdom will. Take initiative. It won’t be as much work as you think, and you’ll get help once you commit.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

While your community service may be commendable, today your compassion will not be measured by the degree to which you knock yourself out to help others. It is better assessed by the kindness you afford yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

To get to happiness, you do not always have to go through the dark forest of unhappiness.

It helps that you’ve been there before and already understand the contrast. Avoid the forest, and try a new path.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Overnight success is a matter of preparation, the likes of which takes years, not hours, to cultivate. Continue doing the work in good faith. Keep a strong grip on your optimism, as it’s one of your best qualities.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re an independent with your own ideas about how things should unfold. If you dare to stand alone, you won’t be alone for long, mainly because you’re right.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may not start out in an optimum mood, but you can get there with a little work. Remember how you overcame your last big challenge. Review the steps you took. You will learn from yourself.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Someone should only be able to hurt you once. If you get hurt by the same person twice, it means that on some level you’re agreeing to it. You can be friendly and loving and still stay inside your own emotional boundaries.

JUSTISE WINSLOW, DUKE

Top Dog — Kentucky Kentucky has done nothing to change the perception that it is the top dog of the entire tournament. In the round of 32, Cincinnati gave the Wildcats some difficulty early on, but Kentucky’s depth and length were too much to handle. The Bearcats tried to get under Kentucky’s skin with a physical game, to no avail. If anything was an issue, Kentucky’s guards had an off game against Cincinnati. Aaron Harrison, Andrew Harrison, Devin Booker and Tyler Ulis combined to shoot 12-of-34 from the field overall and 4-of-15 from 3.

Underdog — Wichita State A disclaimer: The underdog label is not appropriate for Wichita State. In the last three years, this program has gone to the Final Four, started a season 35–0 and conquered Kansas in the Round of 32. The Shockers have accomplished more in recent years than their Sweet 16 opponent, Notre Dame. But No. 7 Wichita State is the lowest-seeded team remaining in the region. After the buildup to the anticipated matchup with the Jayhawks, the Shockers’ energy levels will be a storyline to watch.

Kentucky vs. West Virginia again Kentucky and West Virginia have met in the NCAA Tournament three times since John Calipari and Bob Huggins have been at their current posts. The most recent was a 71–63 Kentucky win in the Round of 32 in 2011. The most memorable was in the 2010 Elite Eight when fourth-seeded West Virginia upset a top-seeded Kentucky team led by John Wall and DeMarcus Cousins. This year’s meeting will be just as compelling when undefeated Kentucky faces West Virginia’s relentless pressure.

The Quote “I’d talk to her during the season and very rarely did I get ‘Hey, Mike, how you doing?’ It’s like, ‘Have you got them ready? Are they ready? I think we can beat Duke, Mike.’ It’s unbelievable.

She was intense.”

— Notre Dame coach Mike Brey, who revealed Saturday his mother, Betty Brey, died the morning of Notre Dame’s 67–64 overtime win over Butler.

Top Dog — Wisconsin The Badgers are making their fourth Sweet 16 appearance in the last five seasons, but the goals are far more grand than they once were for the Wisconsin program. To reach the Final Four for the second consecutive season, the Badgers have to get through North Carolina. The Tar Heels are generally regarded as a dynamic offensive team because of their up-and-down style, but Wisconsin ranks first in the nation in offensive efficiency. The battle for tempo will be the most interesting matchup of this intriguing Sweet 16 showdown.

Underdog — Xavier Xavier is no stranger to this stage. The Musketeers are in the Sweet 16 for the fifth time in the last eight years. But they’re also a No. 6 seed among giants Wisconsin, Arizona and North Carolina. With freshman Trevon Bluiett and sophomore Jalen Reynolds emerging as key players, this Xavier team is peaking at the right time. A run to the Final Four is not out of the question.

Familiar faces for Sean Miller The selection committee made sure Sean Miller’s path to his first Final Four was an emotional one. To get to the Sweet 16, the Arizona coach had to go head to head with Ohio State coach Thad Matta, his predecessor and former boss at Xavier. Miller’s Sweet 16 matchup will be against Xavier, a team he coached for five seasons. On the Xavier bench is Chris Mack, who spent all five of those seasons on Miller’s staff before succeeding him with the Musketeers. If Miller is to advance to the Final Four for the first time in his career, he will have to beat two of his best friends in the business.

The Quote “It’s been a hard year, it really has. I probably acted sillier in the locker room after this game than I have in quite a while. I’m going to try to enjoy the dickens out of this one for a while.”

— North Carolina coach Roy Williams after the 87–78 win over Arkansas, referring to the passing of mentor and UNC legend Dean Smith earlier this year.

Top Dog — Oklahoma For the first time since 2004, a regional will begin with the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds eliminated in the first weekend. That leaves No. 3 Oklahoma as the top-seeded team in the East region. The Sooners held off Dayton in the Round of 32 thanks to some late heroics by Buddy Hield. He’s usually a big-time shotmaker, but it was his block that helped seal the win over the Flyers. Oklahoma coach Lon Kruger is taking his fourth team to the Sweet 16, but he hasn’t taken a team beyond that since the 1994 Final Four at Florida.

Underdog — NC State NC State was one of the most frustrating teams during the regular season, a team with the talent to be at the top in the ACC, but also a team capable of losing to Clemson, Boston College and Wake Forest. LSU collapsed down the stretch in the round of 64, and Villanova’s offense went cold for an entire game as NC State advanced to the Sweet 16. Cat Barber, Trevor Lacey and Abdul-Malik Abu are a talented trio, and the Wolfpack can’t be dismissed simply because they are a No. 8 seed in the Sweet 16.

An All-ACC Sweet 16 game With memberships ballooning in the major conferences, the selection committee is having a tougher and tougher time of making sure that conference teams don’t play each other until the Elite Eight. The ACC sent six of its 15 members to the field and two of them — Louisville and NC State — will meet in the Sweet 16. On an ACC court in the Carrier Dome, no less. The Louisville-NC State meeting in the regional semifinal was permissible since the two teams played only once during the regular season. NC State won 74–65 on Feb. 14.

The Quote “(Former Michigan State All-American) Draymond Green actually this morning said, ‘Don’t let this be your last game,’ and I texted him back and said, ‘I won’t.’ But that was our mindset coming in.

We knew they were a great team, we had to jump out on them early.”

— Michigan State guard Travis Trice on his hot start against Virginia

Top Dog — Duke Even before the Tournament, Duke looked like the easy favorite in the South region. The first two games made the pick look even easier. The Blue Devils made easy work of Robert Morris and then had no trouble with the length of San Diego State in the Round of 32. The Blue Devils averaged 1.11 points per possession against San Diego State, the third-highest average by an opponent against the Aztecs this season. Jahlil Okafor was 12-of-16 from the field for 26 points, but the most impressive player may have been Justise Winslow. The freshman had 13 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks in a highlight-reel day.

Underdog — UCLA Go ahead and debate if UCLA should be in the field in the first place, but it’s no question the Bruins have taken advantage of the selection committee’s vote of confidence. A goaltending call late in the Round of 64 gave UCLA a leg up on SMU, and the Bruins thrashed No. 11 seed UAB in 92–75 to go to the Sweet 16.

UCLA isn’t a deep team, but the Bruins can score. UCLA’s starting five scored 88 points against the Blazers, and Bryce Alford, the coach’s son, is one of the most lethal 3-point shooters left in the tournament.

Gonzaga’s redemption The Bulldogs have been snakebitten in the NCAA Tournament, reaching the Sweet 16 only once since 2006. The program hasn’t won in the Sweet 16 since 1999, the year before Mark Few became the head coach. This is one of Few’s best teams in 16 seasons in Spokane, but Gonzaga will need to conquer one demon to reach the regional final. The Sweet 16 matchup with UCLA is a rematch of the 2006 regional semifinal that ended with National Player of the Year Adam Morrison in tears after a 73–71 Bruins win.

The Quote “Now we look around and it’s like, ‘Pinch me. Here we are.’ It’s been a fun run with a lot of these guys that have been a part of it.”

— Utah coach Larry Krystkowiak, whose first team at Utah in 2011-12 went 6–25. The Utes are in the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2005.

Mulkey: Sweet 16 Baylor team will be better in future The Associated Press

Baylor coach Kim Mulkey is already talking about the NCAA Final Four — the one two years from now in Dallas, about 100 miles from the Waco campus.

The Lady Bears, in the Sweet 16 for the seventh year in a row, still have a chance to make it to Tampa this year. There is always Indianapolis next season, too.

“I think the older you are, the more experience

you have, those teams usually are the ones that make it to the Final Four,” Mulkey said. “I’ve said it many times. I don’t count this team out, but I still think we’re young. And I think in a year or two, watch out.”

With only one senior and three sophomore starters, including Big 12 player of the year Nina Davis, the Lady Bears (32-3) this season won their fifth straight Big 12 regular season and conference titles. They

swept through the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament at home, with lopsided wins over Northwestern State and Arkansas.

“To watch them do what they’re doing right now, at the age they are, it’s going to be fun if they stay healthy the next two years, because then you add Alexis Jones to the mix,” Mulkey said of the Duke transfer. “You’ve got her for two years, and then you add those five big recruits

— 6-5, 6-5, 6-4, 5-8, 5-8 — and the Final Four is in Dallas in two years. I hope I’m still coaching by then.”

Baylor, the No. 2 seed in the Oklahoma City Regional, plays No. 3 seed Iowa (26-7) on Friday night.

The Lady Bears won the Big 12 tournament last season in Oklahoma City, but lost a physical Sweet 16 matchup against Louisville two years ago in three-time All-American center Brittney Griner’s last game.

Top-seeded Notre Dame (33-2) plays No. 4 seed Stanford (26-9) in the other Oklahoma City game Friday night. The Lady Bears lost to Notre Dame in last year’s regional final, that game on the Fighting Irish’s home court.

Mulkey has two national championships in her 15 seasons at Baylor, after winning titles as a player and assistant coach at Louisiana Tech.

Duke transfer Jones started all 64 games she

played there the last two seasons before tearing the ACL in her left knee. An All-ACC pick by coaches as a sophomore after earning league tournament MVP as a freshman, the 5-8 guard averaged 11.1 points, 4.3 rebounds, 4.6 assists and 1.9 steals for the Blue Demons.

Jones is from MacArthur High in Irving, Texas, the same school as former Lady Bears point guard Odyssey Sims, a two-time All-American.

Northeast Mississippi Community College’s Brittany Taylor delivers a pitch during a 4-1 victory by the Tigers over Mississippi Delta Community College. Taylor was named the NJCAA Division II Pitcher of the Week after striking out 10 batters against the Trojans.

Taylor 3rd Tiger to win NJCAA award

BY BLAKE D. LONG NEMCC Sports Information

BOONEVILLE — Brittany Taylor accomplished something in the first two months of her career at Northeast Mississippi Community College that only two others have achieved previously in the rich history of the softball squad.

Taylor was selected as the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division II Pitcher of the Week

for games contested March 9-15.

“That’s a huge honor not only for our program, but absolutely for that young lady as well as the teammates that have played behind her,” Tigers head coach Jody Long said. “Brittany has done an outstanding job for us in the role as a starter. She competes and gives us the chance to win every ballgame.”

Taylor is the first Northeast

hurler to attain this award in the past two years. Current Eckerd (Fla.) College standout Erin Dixson collected the accolade on Feb. 27, 2013, while Jaisa Emerson became the inaugural Tiger to claim this distinction after tossing a perfect game on April 19, 2012.

“She displays hard work and determination constantly,” said Emerson, who now serves Northeast as an assistant coach. “This really glori-

fies how much time she puts in.

“Practice is when she gets better. When something’s not right, she’s always going to put in the extra effort to correct it.”

Central track opens season with dominance

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

It took awhile to get the season started, but the Alcorn Central track program got the 2015 season off on the right foot.

Or feet, given that both the Lady Bears and Bears rolled to wins at last week’s Tishomingo County Braves Relays at Tishomingo County High School.

The meet was co-hosted by Tishomingo County and Alcorn Central.

“We had a beautiful day and it was great to finally get the season started,” said AC Head

Coach Bobby Purvis.

Both Central clubs tallied 190 points in the season opener, easily outdistancing the seven other schools in the eight-team event.

The Lady Bears claimed eight event championships, and more than doubled second-place New Site’s 59 points.

The Bears won 11 events, beating the co-host Braves by 82 points.

Adamsville (Tenn.), Biggersville, Booneville, McNairy Central (Tenn.), New Site and Walnut joined the co-hosts in the field.

South Carolina women set to take next step The Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina coach Dawn Staley believes her team is ready to finally push past the Sweet 16 and go deeper in the NCAA Tournament.

The Gamecocks have reached the round of 16 three times in the past four years — and saw their NCAA runs end there.

South Carolina needed to pull off a major upset three

years ago to get past top-seeded Stanford in Fresno, California. A year ago, though, it was the top-seeded Gamecocks who were upended by North Carolina.

Now, it’s the Tar Heels (268) who again stand in South Carolina’s path. The teams will meet Friday night in Greensboro, North Carolina.

— about an hour from the Tar Heels’ campus.

Staley said there are no lin-

gering mental hurdles and her players are eager to get on the court and continue pushing forward.

“This is a new year,” Staley said Wednesday. “We’ve gotten better. We’re a different basketball team than we were last year.”

They’re certainly a deeper, taller and well-rested squad.

The Gamecocks had won the first of two straight Southeastern Conference titles last

season, yet a couple of late stumbles left them uncertain of their seeding. They were also shipped out west, winning first- and second-round games in Seattle before falling to the Tar Heels 65-58.

This time, South Carolina (32-2) followed its SEC regular-season crown with its first-ever league tournament title. The Gamecocks hosted Please see STEP | 13

North Division play by keeping Mississippi Delta Community College off balance during a 4-1 victory in the nightcap.

Taylor shattered her previous career-high and recorded 10 strikeouts against the Trojans. She did not allow a walk or an earned run to notch her fourth victory of the campaign inside the circle.

The West Union High School product scattered five hits in the impressive complete game performance. Taylor had separate streaks of six and five consecutive batters sat down during the matchup.

She accounted for two three-up, three-down frames. Taylor punched out two batters in a harmless second inning while a flyout to centerfielder Mackenzie Riley wrapped up a perfect fifth for Northeast. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It feels good to know that all my hard work is paying off,â&#x20AC;? Taylor said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working hard in practice. My defense gives me confidence because I know that they have my back and I can depend on them.â&#x20AC;?

Taylor paces a Tiger pitching staff that holds a solid earned run average (ERA) of 2.55. She

has compiled a teamhigh 33.2 innings of action with a 4-1-1 overall record.

The Enterprise native tossed a shutout in her first ever appearance in a black-and-gold uniform during a scoreless tie at Calhoun (Ala.) Community College. She followed that with two straight one-run outings in victories versus East Mississippi Community College and Mississippi Delta.

She has an ERA of 2.51 with just 12 walks conceded so far as a freshman. Opponents have only amassed a .279 batting average against Taylor, which is tenth best in the NJCAA. Taylor is reliable with her glove as well. She is flawless with 11 assists and four putouts in 15 total chances and is tied with Bailey Bogue for the top fielding percentage among Northeastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s athletes at 1.000.

She is the second Tiger to receive recognition for their effectiveness this season. Alyssa Vanlandingham obtained MACJC Pitcher of the Week laurels from February 23-March 1 after guiding Northeast to an extra inning triumph over rival Itawamba Community College.

The 46-year-old is the oldest son of team owner Joe Gibbs, the Pro Football Hall of Fame who won three Super Bowls with Washington. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All members of the NASCAR and France family extend our thoughts and prayers to J.D. Gibbs and his loved ones,â&#x20AC;? NASCAR Chair-

man and CEO Brian France said in a statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve all watched J.D. grow up within our community, and he always has represented himself, his family, the entire Joe Gibbs Racing organization and NASCAR with the utmost professionalism, enthusiasm and energy. We wish him the best during this time and eagerly anticipate his recovery.â&#x20AC;?

JGR said doctors believe the symptoms are related to previous head injuries, but no specific injury has been identified.

J.D. Gibbs played defensive back and quarterback at William & Mary between 1987 and 1990, and had a brief career as a race car driver. He also snowboards, mountain bikes and participates in other extreme sports.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard at this point in the season because you have so much riding on it,â&#x20AC;? the senior said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We know we have to come out with a lot of energy and we know we have to outwork every opponent thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in front of us.

We just have to have that mindset.â&#x20AC;?

That was not the case for South Carolina a year ago.

The Tar Heels and then star Diamond DeShields came right at the Gamecocks, pushing the pace

on the way to building a double-digit lead in the second half. A South Carolina rally â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it cut the lead to three points with less than two minutes remaining â&#x20AC;&#x201D; fell short and the top seeds were sent packing.

A disappointed Staley met with her players soon after and all agreed their goal was go further, much further in chasing a national title.

South Carolinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trek has been helped by a deep bench featuring two of the

SECâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top players, 6-foot5 league freshman of the year Aâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ja Wilson and 6-4 Alaina Coates.

The pair have been a formable backup punch this season, combining for 24 points and 15 rebounds a game.

The Tar Heels enter this contest without DeShields â&#x20AC;&#x201D; she transferred to Tennessee last offseason â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but still with a potent scoring combo of Allisha Gray and Stephanie Mavunga capable of creating a fast pace.

STEP CONTINUED FROM 12

the first two rounds and were the only opening host to play in front of two crowds of 10,000 or better South Carolina has made quick work of its first tournament opponents, defeating No. 16 seed Savannah State and No. 8 seed Syracuse by a combined 62 points.

Gamecocks forward Aleighsa Welch said the team is focused on each step and does not dwell on its errors of the past.
