Year-to-date sales tax up 9 percent BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
One of the year’s typically slower months brought a big spike in sales tax collections. The mid-March deposit, reflecting sales made in local businesses during January, totaled $461,795 for Corinth, up about $64,000, or 16 percent, from a year ago, according to
sales tax figures released by the Mississippi Department of Revenue. It is the 16th consecutive month to show an increase from a year earlier. At the midpoint of the fiscal year, the city’s share of sales tax revenue totals $3.095 million, up 9 percent from the same point in the prior fiscal year.
Collections were robust across the state for the month, climbing 8 percent compared to the prior year. The 2 percent tourism tax on restaurants and lodging yielded $98,677.38, rising 29 percent from a soft month a year earlier. The year-to-date total is $528,400.47, up 14 percent compared to the prior year.
The tourism tax has posted gains each month of the current fiscal year. Other sales tax results from the region (percentages rounded): ■ Booneville — $145,097.60 (+5%) ■ Burnsville — $11,354.33 (-5%) ■ Farmington — $4,921.93
(+40%) ■ Glen — $1,857.96 (-1%) ■ Iuka — $53,920.43 (-3%) ■ Kossuth — $2,673.23 (-30%) ■ Rienzi — $4,437.01 (+19%) ■ Ripley — $100,902.69 (+7%) ■ Tupelo — $1,401,327.71 (+9%) ■ Walnut — $20,736.66 (+33%)

The Corinth School District is beginning to move toward the sale of parcels of land it owns at the closed West Corinth Elementary School property. The board of trustees this week learned about the district’s options for conducting the sale but did not yet take action to set the process in motion. The district has three parcels that encompass the playground area and a lot that sits
to the east of the playground. At this point, the property is of no value to the school district, which faces the continuing expense of upkeep of the property, said Superintendent Lee Childress. The Siege and Battle of Corinth Commission, which already purchased the lot where the school building itself sits from the City of Corinth, is interested in acquiring these neighboring lots for use in interpretation of the Please see SALE | 2A

Project Reach boosts development School board shifts BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com
The Corinth School District is reaching into the community to enhance reading skills and early childhood development with Project Reach. Part of the district’s eMerge Initiative, the program has introduced a wide range of new community projects focused on encouraging both students and parents to read more. “Investing in the future generation is a very important step for the district,” said Marketing Manager Taylor Coombs. “We are working hard to help students, parents and the community by offering these great
programs at no cost.” Among the many Project Reach programs include a partnership with Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library which will supply one book per month to all CDS students under the age of five. Coombs said the district has learned students without reading material in their homes are more likely to have trouble reading as they age. Books Before Birth is one of the many Project Reach programs that should help increase the number of household books. “The program is designed for expectant parents who live in the Corinth School District,”
said Coombs. “Families expecting a baby can receive two free children’s books and a bookmark emphasizing the important of establishing read-a-loud traditions at home.” Coombs said the district is searching for mothers-to-be. “Any expectant parents who would like to receive books for their unborn baby should contact the school district as soon as possible,” added Coombs. “The program is also extended to CES students who are expecting a little brother or sister. Those students are given a book to read to them when they arPlease see REACH | 2A

The Corinth School District will open classes a little later in the next school year. The city school board adopted the calendar on Monday and also elected a new board president and set a new meeting date. The 2015-2016 calendar has a first day for students on Thursday, Aug. 13, and exams on May 24-26 in 2016. Graduation will be on Friday, May 27, 2016 — the Friday before
Memorial Day. With those dates, city students will start the year a week later than those in the Alcorn School District. “It will pose a little bit of a problem in terms of the Career and Technical Center, but it’s not something that we can’t overcome,” said Superintendent Lee Childress.

Bluegrass band playing ‘Live at the Latta’ event BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
SELMER, Tenn. — Town Mountain proclaims to be a “hard drivin’ Carolina string band.” The group plays bluegrass hard, fast, like their fingers are bleeding and their picks are breaking. On Saturday, the string band is bringing its musical talent to the Latta Visitors and Cultural Center. The “Live at the Latta’ event is set for 7:30 p.m. with tickets being $15. “The band plays good music,” said Latta board member Ron Bell. “They play an unique sound when it comes to bluegrass.” Town Mountain was formed in Asheville, North Carolina. Following the recording of its first two albums, the band signed with Pinecastle Records label. While under the Pinecastle label,
the group produced acclaimed recordings with Steady Operator as well as Leave The Bottle in 2011. Members of the band are Phil Barker, mandolin and vocals; Robert Greer, vocals and guitar; Jesse Langlais, banjo and vocals; Bobby Britt, fiddle; and Nick DiSebastian, bass. “I feel like we’re closer to original bluegrass than a lot of bands out there today,” says Langlais via the band’s website. During the 2013 International Bluegrass Music Association (IBMA) World of Bluegrass convention, Town Mountain took home “Band of the Year” and lead singer Greer was selected “Vocalist of the Year.” “This is an event people do not want to miss,” said Bell. (Tickets can be purchased online at www.artsinmcnairy.com.)
Town Mountain is scheduled for a Saturday performance at the Latta Visitors and Cultural Center.

Battle of Corinth. The parcels would likely be green space with some signage, said Superintendent Lee Childress. Attorney Bill Davis said the district has the option of advertising the property for bids in the usual fashion or, “if the purpose for which it is to be conveyed is to foster the social, cultural, educational, economic, etc., benefit of the community, then you can dispose of the property in whatever terms suits you in whatever manner, even if it’s for nominal consideration.” A reverter clause would be required, bringing it back to the district’s ownership if it ceases to be used for that cultural purpose.
The parcels would likely be green space with some signage. The district holds a warranty deed on the property from the Corinth Urban Renewal Agency. The land was bought for fair market value at the time in 1980 for $13,750. Siege and Battle purchased the main school lot from the city for $1,499 last June, giving the group key battlefield land neighboring the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center on Linden Street.

Each library is open through 8 p.m. Monday-Thursday and from 1 to 6 p.m. on Saturday. “We are in the process of purchasing $30,000 worth of new books in order to update the book selection at each library,” said Coombs. “Internet access will also be available for students, parents and community members during those extended hours.” Other programs include family reading nights, parent literacy training and college and career nights. The 100,000 Book Challenge invites students and community members to help the district reach their goal of reading 100,000 books by May 2016. Bright Red Bookshelf is a partner project with the district and local Boy Scout Eagle troupes.

Bright red bookshelves will be constructed by the Scouts, loaded with books donated by the district and placed throughout the community in hopes of encouraging reading. Story Walk is another exciting Project Reach program. Coombs said the young professionals group at Caterpillar will build Story Walk podiums that will be placed at the Crossroads Regional Park and in the downtown historic district. “The podiums will hold pages of books and a map that will guide parents and children on a Story Walk of the area,” she said. “It will be one of the neatest programs within Project Reach.” (To enroll in the Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library or the Books Before Birth program, contact Yvonne Fair at 662-2865245.

Both American College Test scores and scholastic averages are compared to determine the school’s STAR Student, according to Vickie Powell, Senior Vice President of Foundations. “The STAR program encourages and promotes academic achievement among Mississip-
pi’s high school seniors,” she said. Each STAR Student is asked to designate a STAR Teacher, the teacher who has made the greatest contribution to the student’s scholastic achievement. CHS teacher Tommy Thompson was designated as the STAR Teacher. In addition to other scholarship opportunities, Thompson has been given a $6,000 scholarship from Mississippi State University.

Austin Schiel was recently awarded the highest rank of the Boy Scouts of America -- the Eagle Scout Award. Nationally only about 6 percent of scouts are awarded this every year. For his project he oversaw the renovation of the parking lot of the Go4th Ministries building in Iuka. It included the raising of funds, cleaning and weeding, sealing some of the larger cracks, and re-striping the lines. With the help of volunteers, he completed the renovation in late October last year.

During his time as a Scout with Troop 75 of Burnsville, Schiel has earned the Arrow of Light, all of the Webelos pins, the mile swim award, 37 merit badges, and the Bronze, Silver, and Gold Duke of Edinburgh medals, one of 9,900 awarded internationally in 2014. He is in the 11th grade at Tishomingo County High School. He plans on attending college when he graduates and aspires to become a pilot. He is the son of Alex Schiel of Booneville and Sarah Schiel of Burnsville.

A sick duck in Djibouti When I was a child, I wanted to be, at various times depending on the day and the strength of the Sunday School lesson, a veterinarian, or a missionary or perhaps a veterinarian misRheta sionary saving pagan animals farms in faraway places Johnson on with strange-sounding names. Got a sick duck in Djibouti? Columnist I’m your woman. A sick horse in Malinovo? On my way. I figured out in detail what flattering ensemble I would wear to each emergency, and what my humble home would look like with its spare furnishings and cozy fire. I was like a paper doll, one dimensional but with a nice wardrobe and Thomas Kinkade cottage. When I soon realized that becoming a vet meant studying science and math, two subjects at which I did not excel, I gave up that dream. There also was my squeamishness to consider. Clearing the table after supper made me slightly sick; imagine what a bloody bovine might do to my organdy sensibilities. The pagans were soon on their own, as well as the beasts. We have met the enemy, and it is us. I won’t even mention my brief dream of becoming an Olympic ice skater, and how I practiced in bedroom slippers on a pink patio in Pensacola. Even as a 5-year-old, I could see that dream was a logistical stretch. These days, after a lifetime of journalism, I occasionally get that old daydream of the professional paper doll. I wander through a plant nursery this time of year and think: “I might have studied horticulture and spent my life in a greenhouse. It’s warm here, and beautiful, and plants respond to loving care.” But pretending is not as easy as it used to be. I’ve met enough folks in the plant business to know it’s not as straight-forward as it might look, raising flowers – especially since the box stores have bulldozed their way into the business, selling petunias by the bulk. Good independent nurseries are disappearing almost as fast as, well, newspapers. As consolation, I remind myself that almost nobody has better war stories than old reporters, especially late at night when two or more are gathered. When that happens, I’m glad things have happened as they have. My old United Press International buddy John Branston and his wife Jenny visited recently. As a veteran nurse, Jenny is one of those who has stories that rival a reporter’s for gallows humor. And she tells them well. There’s that science and blood hurdle again. I could never have been a nurse. We take turns talking. One bizarre encounter reminds us of another. Our audience lists toward the health care tales, not a reporter’s wrangles. A man impaled with a pool cue or the inventor of a perpetual motion machine? It’s simply a matter of taste. Either way, it’s good to sit around a table too late drinking too much and laughing too hard at things that don’t happen to accountants. Accounting. Now there’s another profession that requires a skill set I don’t have: adding, subtracting and budgeting. I could be an astronaut quicker than an accountant – except astronauts can’t fear heights and small spaces and they wear really ugly outfits.

The power of forgiveness Turn on the news and you expect to see people of different races and politics denouncing each other. That’s why what happened last week on “The Kelly File,” Megyn Kelly’s Fox News program, was so remarkable. Following the expulsion of Parker Rice and Levi Pettit, two Sigma Alpha Epsilon members at the University of Oklahoma, upon the video release of a racist sing-a-long they led, Isaac Hill, the president of the university’s Black Student Association, told Kelly the students should be forgiven. Kelly, who is normally in complete control, was stunned and nearly speechless. It was not what she – or any of us – expected. Judgment, retribution, rioting, censorship, shaming, loss of job and prestige are the norm, not forgiveness, especially when the offending students, at the time, hadn’t asked for it. Hill told Kelly: “It is not smart to fight hate with hate. It is only logical to fight hate with love.” This brings to mind what Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. said: “We must develop and maintain the capacity to forgive. He who is devoid
of the power to forgive is devoid of the power to love. There is some good in the worst Cal of us and Thomas some evil in the best of Columnist us. When we discover this, we are less prone to hate our enemies.” What would have better served the interests of OU, Rice and Pettit and the larger student body? Instead of focusing on punishment and expulsion, shutting down the fraternity house and evicting all its residents, the goal should have been redemption. Redemption is a harder road to travel, but the destination should be to change the students’ thinking, not bludgeon them into silence where any racist thoughts might fester and grow worse. How to accomplish this? In today’s world of instant communication, which is different from conversation, we know our fellow Americans by categories. We are all parts of groups, often pitted against each other. The integrity of the
individual has been gobbled up by groupthink. If you are African-American, for example, you are supposed to be liberal, angry at white people and vote only for Democrats. Those who stray from this ideological and political plantation are to be denounced and expelled. What should have happened at the University of Oklahoma and at other universities that are now uncovering similar racist incidents by white students is to require them to get to know people of different races. White students should be mandated, as a condition of their continued enrollment, to spend time with students of other races. Dine with them, take in a basketball game with them, meet their parents and listen as they tell their stories. Everyone has a story, but too many of us are unwilling to listen. Listening to another person’s story humanizes them and fosters equality far more than any civil rights legislation, or attempts to control speech. Many people have said that while they regard Congress as corrupt, they like their congressman because they know him or her. That’s the point. Know-
ing someone removes, or at least diminishes, any stigma we might have previously associated with a person. In her book, “The Power of Forgiveness: Why Revenge Doesn’t Work,” Dr. Judith Orloff writes: “... revenge reduces you to your worst self, puts you on the same level with those spiteful people we claim to abhor.” Isaac Hill told Megyn Kelly he hopes the racist comments can be used as a chance to learn and grow. Offered several opportunities by Kelly to criticize the white students, Hill declined. “Those behaviors are taught,” he said. “We are all born innocent people.” In the musical “South Pacific,” librettist Oscar Hammerstein II wrote, “You’ve got to be taught to hate.” One can also be taught to love. Again, Dr. King said it best: “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” (Cal Thomas’ latest book is “What Works: Common Sense Solutions for a Stronger America” is available in bookstores now.

Prison system is like big rock in garden BY WYATT EMMERICH The Northside-Sun
The Mississippi Department of Corrections (MDOC) reform task force held an open hearing in downtown Jackson at the Woolfolk building. About a hundred people attended. The task force was appointed by Gov. Phil Bryant in the wake of the Epps scandal. Its primary charge is prison contracts bidding reform, but the hearing went well beyond that limited scope. One mother stood and told a heart-rending story of her son getting beaten to death in prison. Others talked about the abuse and corruption of the guards and administrators. Pastors spoke on the need for rehabilitation. Just about everybody agreed privately run prisons were not working well. I felt sorry for task force members Mike Moore, Robert Gibbs, Andy Taggart, Bill Crawford and Constance Slaughter-Harvey. The governor has asked them to solve the unsolvable. As long as sin exists, prisons are going to be society’s greatest problem. Let’s take prison overcrowding for instance. For-

mer U.S. Attorney Brad Piggott made an eloquent plea to stop locking away so many young people when we should be educating them instead. I am reminded of the old saying, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink.” Why do people commit crimes? Why don’t people do right? Why do human beings exhibit the remarkable ability to make bad choices and screw up their lives? Prison overcrowding would be a much lesser issue if people would quit committing crimes. Most people in prison have some type of mental illness or social disability. Otherwise, they would be hardworking, happily-adjusted citizens. Failure to deal with this reality will perpetuate the type of prison system we have in Mississippi today. Mississippi needs to do its best to have a prison system that represents our ideals of forgiveness and redemption. We need a New Testament prison system, not an Old Testament one. What does that look like? First, it means each prisoner should be viewed as a lost soul worth saving, not an animal deserving of a beating.
Rehabilitation, house arrest, training, prison ministry, drug dependency counseling, life coaching and similar programs should be the mainstay of our prison system. This is extremely expensive and the Legislature is in the mood to cut the prison budget, not increase it. Recent cost-cutting reforms will reduce the prison populations by expanding parole. Unfortunately, letting people out without helping them just leads to more crime. You can count on it. As a result, our prison system is like the big rock in the garden. It looks OK until you turn it over and see all the worms and insects writhing around in the darkness. The mother whose son was beaten to death says three guards opened the door to allow the assailant in. The son told his mother that morning he was going to be killed. There was nothing she could do. Speakers painted a picture of corruption from the top to bottom. Cell phones and electronic cash transfers, gang leaders and guards have turned the prison system into an extortion racket.

family member in prison will be beaten, raped, robbed or killed. It will be interesting to see what reforms the task force recommends, but here is my short list: • We should move away from privatization. There is too much potential for bid rigging and abuse, as we have witnessed. • There should be a permanent, independent oversight agency whose sole job is to fight corruption and address horror stories. Parents of prisoners need a place they can go to get a hearing. A prison sentence should not be a death sentence. We cannot allow the gangs to run our prisons. • From the day a prisoner enters the system, the goal should be turning around that person’s life. There are numerous prison ministries that would love to play a greater role in achieving this. We will not eradicate sin. Prisons have been hell holes from the dawn of time. But as Christians, we must never give up on our efforts at redemption. This is one area in which there is much work to be done. Let’s pray for the task force, our state leadership and for progress.

Jury views models of Boston bombs BOSTON — Jurors in the trial of Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev have examined models of the pressure cooker bombs used in the 2013 deadly attacks. FBI bomb expert Edward Knapp displayed the models Thursday in Tsarnaev’s federal death penalty trial. Jurors then passed around the models and looked at the parts, including hobby fuse, a toggle switch and electronic speed controllers from remote-controlled cars. Knapp says the FBI constructed the models from parts similar to those found at the scene of the twin bombings April 15, 2013. Knapp says the bombs were “not too difficult” to build, using readily available parts and instructions easily found on the Internet.
Mother pleads not guilty in child death CINCINNATI — A woman accused of decapitating her 3-monthold daughter pleaded not guilty Thursday to a charge of aggravated murder. Deasia Watkins, 20, was arraigned on the charge in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court, a court official said. Watkins’ attorney entered the not-guilty plea for her. Judge Charles Kubicki ordered that Watkins be transferred to the Twin Valley Behavioral Healthcare facility in Columbus for psychological evaluation and he increased her bail from $500,000 to $5 million. Watkins was arrested last week. Police responding to a 911 call on March 16 found Jayniah Watkins decapitated on the kitchen counter in the home of an aunt who was temporarily caring for her. Authorities said the baby had been stabbed multiple times with a large chef’s knife. She also had a fractured arm, and the knife had been placed in her hand, authorities said. Authorities say Dea-
sia Watkins appeared to be suffering from serious mental issues when police found her covered in blood in a bed at the aunt’s home. Prosecutors have said they won’t seek the death penalty Watkins was considered a threat to her child and had been “acting crazy” and talking about demons when a juvenile court judge earlier in March placed the baby in the custody of Hamilton County Job and Family Services, according to court documents. Social workers later placed the baby in the aunt’s care, warning her to keep the mother away from the child unless social workers were present, authorities said.
Man retraces steps of Boone’s journey FORT BOONESBOROUGH, Ky. — Keeping up a quick pace to the end, Curtis Penix didn’t look like someone who walked nearly 240 miles in the footsteps of frontiersman Daniel Boone. The trip through the Appalachian terrain was inspired by his family’s pioneering Kentucky roots. The Michigan steel mill worker completed his 16-day backpacking journey Thursday. It started in Tennessee, wound into Virginia and took him to hallowed ground in Kentucky — the place where Fort Boonesborough was built in 1775 after Boone and his band of axe men carved out Boone Trace. The path became an early artery for settlers heading westward. Penix, 46, said he feels fine and could keep going, but didn’t want to.
State allows needle exchange program INDIANAPOLIS — Indiana Gov. Mike Pence authorized a short-term needle-exchange program and other steps Thursday to help contain the spread of HIV in a county tied to 79 new infections since January, all of them linked to intravenous drug use. Pence issued an executive order declaring

a public health emergency in Scott County, about 30 miles north of Louisville, Kentucky. He ordered the state health department to set up a command center to coordinate HIV and substance-abuse treatment and establish a mobile unit to enroll people in a state-run health program. Most of the infections involve people who shared a syringe while injecting a liquid form of the prescription painkiller Opana, according to state epidemiologist Pam Pontones. Indiana law normally forbids needleexchange programs, which allow people to turn in used hypodermic needles and get clean ones in an effort to keep diseases such as HIV and hepatitis from spreading. Pence says he opposes them as part of anti-drug policy. But the governor said he agreed to a limited exchange in Scott County because of the emergency nature of the infections.
Accountant doubts source of $1 million LOS ANGELES — An accountant says the woman who recorded offensive racial remarks by Donald Sterling made unbelievable claims about where she got $1 million to buy a house. Jay Shapiro told a Los Angeles judge Thursday that V. Stiviano claimed money came from friends and family members who gave her small bills that she squirreled away in a drawer. Shapiro says that would be an awfully big drawer and he found the story incredulous. Shapiro is testifying on behalf of Shelly Sterling in her case seeking the return of more than $3.5 million her husband gave Stiviano. Shelly Sterling claims the younger woman deceived her 80-year-old husband and that the money belongs to her as community property.

Students compete in Geography Bee PEARL — Dozens of Mississippi students will be tested on their knowledge of geography this week as they vie for a chance to compete in the National Geography Bee later this spring in Washington, D.C. The state competition takes place Friday in at the campus of Hinds Community College in Pearl, with 55 students ages 10 to 14 competing. The state winner will receive $100 and an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington to represent Mississippi in the national championship May 11 through 13, when a $50,000 college scholarship will be at stake.
Tupelo’s tax revenue reaches milestone TUPELO — Tupelo’s recent sales tax revenues marked a significant milestone for the city. The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports the city received more than $2 million in sales tax revenue for the month of December. That’s the most that’s ever been collected for any month in the city’s history. The state disperses cities’ share of sales tax several months behind, and Tupelo Chief Financial Officer Kim Hanna recently received the news that December sales were up 10 percent from the $1.8 million collected during the last fiscal year. Also, in January, which is typically the city’s lowest month for collections, Tupelo’s share of the sales tax was up 9 percent, which adds $100,000 to the city’s general fund operating revenue.
resigned. The Clarion-Ledger reports that Cynthia Johnson left the job earlier this month. Legislators had complained at a public hearing in February that the regulatory board has bad customer service. They said calls to the office were frequently not returned, and the board was slow to process cosmetologists’ licenses. Johnson told lawmakers in February the board had fallen behind on work because it was understaffed. Leisa McElreath of Oxford, the board president, said in February that the agency doesn’t have enough staff members to properly investigate whether applicants for cosmetology licenses are truthfully representing their education and experience.
Hattiesburg to get 7 new sculptures HATTIESBURG -- The Hattiesburg Alliance for Public Art is working downtown this week to install seven large outdoor sculptures. Six of the works were selected in a national competition and will remain on display for one year. One, by local sculptor James Davis, has been purchased for permanent installation at Town Square Park. The art alliance was formed in 2014 in memory of local arts patron
Mary Dixon Montague. Becky Montague, a co-founder and president of the organization, tells The Hattiesburg American its mission is to purchase and place art in the heart of town and to raise awareness of the works of art already in the area.
Two to plead guilty to bringing in drugs GULFPORT -- Court records show two South Mississippi residents are set to plead guilty in a federal case accusing them of conspiring to bring large amounts of methamphetamine, cocaine and marijuana from Houston to Mississippi. The Sun Herald reports Angel Case, 47, and Kenneth Casey, 40, are set to enter pleas Tuesday before Chief District Judge Louis Guirola Jr. Others arrested in the case are Delano Lewis, 45, Thomas Bernard, 34, and Tonya Winn, 50. They are set to go to trial in April. A federal grand jury indicted each on conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute a controlled substance, with Winn, Casey and Bernard also indicted on two counts each of attempted possession with intent to distribute a controlled substance. Case was also indicted on a charge of possession with the intent to distribute a controlled substance.

Salvage begins after killer storm Associated Press
SAND SPRINGS, Okla. — Oklahomans salvaged soggy belongings Thursday after the Plains’ first tornado outbreak of 2015, expressing gratitude that casualties were low but understanding that nature’s next punch could be far worse. One person died and dozens of people were injured when tornadoes hit parts of the Oklahoma City and Tulsa areas during Wednesday’s evening rush hour. The mayor in Moore, an Oklahoma City suburb devastated by a massive tornado two years ago, called the storm that hit his city a “junior tornado.” But residents of a hard-hit Sand Springs, just west of Tulsa, said the storm was agonizing. “Tornadoes mean a loss for a lot of people and their property,” Lisa Reagle said as she rummaged through her father’s demolished mobile home looking for photographs of him playing music with Merle Haggard. Deidre Maxwell scoured the debris for
“We’ve been down this road before. We know what to do.” Oklahoma Gov. Mary Fallin After touring an elementary school that lost its roof her parents’ prescription medications and any family keepsakes. She also was looking for the family car, a PT Cruiser that had been parked beside their mobile home. “I don’t even know how I’m going to get in this,” she said, struggling to lift the front door from the nearly demolished trailer. Wednesday’s storms broke a months-long tornado drought in Oklahoma; a day earlier, an Arkansas waterspout was the first twister to hit the U.S. in a month. Reagle credited “a God thing” for the low casualty count, and Tulsa County Undersheriff Tim Albin said the area fared surprisingly well through tornadoes, hail and heavy rains. “I’ll tell you, when we got to pulling up on the scene you just thought
we were going to be pulling a hundred bodies out of here,” Albin said. Gov. Mary Fallin declared a state of emergency for 25 counties ahead of a visit to Moore, where seven school children were among 24 people killed in a top-scale EF-5 tornado in 2013. Wednesday’s storms were considerably weaker, and the governor said damage was still being assessed. “We’ve been down this road before. We know what to do,” Fallin said after touring an elementary school that lost its roof. Moore has been hit by 22 tornadoes since 1893, and since 1999, four storms have been rated near the top of the scale for tornado damage. The city’s longtime mayor, Glenn Lewis, described the recent
twister as “kind of like a junior tornado for us” as he assessed the damage Thursday. Back in Sand Springs, where Fallon also planned to visit, Desiree Roberts said the mobile home she lost in the storm was likely her last. “The risk is just too great,” she said. The U.S. had had an unusually quiet start to the tornado season. After a series of storms in early January from Mississippi to Georgia, cold air settled into much of the country, suppressing violent weather. Tuesday’s waterspout over Bull Shoals Lake in Arkansas was the nation’s first twister in March; the month typically has 120. The last time the U.S. had no twisters in March was nearly 50 years ago, but a slow start means nothing once the atmosphere becomes ripe for storms, according to the U.S. Storm Prediction Center. “We always know it’s a possibility, and it may be ‘You’re next,’” Reagle said.
Lawyer disputes hoax claim in kidnapping Associated Press
VALLEJO, Calif. — A lawyer disputes police claims that the kidnapping of a California woman was a hoax and says her boyfriend was bound and drugged during the abduction. Attorney Dan Russo says his client Aaron Quinn did not immediately call police when his girlfriend Denise Huskins was abducted early Monday because at least two kidnappers “forced him to drink something” they said was a drug. Investigators said they were suspicious when Quinn took hours to report that strangers broke into his home and abducted Huskins for an $8,500 ransom. Police could not be reached for comment Thursday. Huskins turned up safe in Huntington Beach, California, on Wednesday, the same day police
“Devoting all of our resources 24 hours a day in a wild goose chase, it’s a tremendous loss. It’s disappointing. It’s disheartening.” Lt. Kenny Park Vallejo, California, police officer revealed they had no proof of a kidnapping and believe it was a hoax. After the investigation turned to the couple, police said they weren’t able to contact either Huskins or her family members by Wednesday’s end and do not know where she is now. Police questioned Quinn for 17 hours, Russo said. Huskins had indicated she would talk to detectives, and the FBI had arranged to have her flown back to Northern California, police said. She hired an attorney, but

the lawyer’s name was not released. Jeff Kane, Huskins’ uncle, disputed that the family was avoiding calls from police. He said that because he’s a lawyer he has an ethical obligation to not reveal any discussion with Huskins. Mike Huskins said his daughter called him to say she had been dropped off at her mother’s Huntington Beach house. No one was there, so she said she walked the 12 blocks to his home, but he had traveled to Northern California to help with the search. “She wasn’t crying at all. She just said, ‘Daddy, I’m OK,’ “ an emotional Mike Huskins told The Associated Press on Wednesday. “I feel very relieved. Can you imagine? You can’t unless you’ve experienced it.” Quinn had told police that Denise Huskins was taken forcefully from their Mare Island home in Vallejo early Monday. He called police around 2 p.m. to report she had been abducted. Vallejo police Lt.

Kenny Park said the delay is part of what aroused suspicions. “It was such an incredible story, we initially had a hard time believing it,” Park said. “Upon further investigation, we couldn’t substantiate any of the things he was saying.” It was not clear whether police have spoken with Quinn since they determined the case was a hoax. Police expressed disgust at the resources squandered — saying over 40 detectives had worked on the case — and the fear the couple instilled in the community with a report of random violence. “Devoting all of our resources 24 hours a day in a wild goose chase, it’s a tremendous loss,” Park said. “It’s disappointing. It’s disheartening.” In another bizarre twist in the case, the San Francisco Chronicle received an email Tuesday from an anonymous person claiming to be holding Denise Huskins. The person wrote that she would be returned safely Wednesday, the newspaper reported. Huskins’ uncle described her as a person of sterling character, saying she is career-oriented, independent and strong. She works as a physical therapist at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center in Vallejo. “She’s a good girl, not into any bad things,” Kane said.

Building catches fire, collapses

NEW YORK — An apartment building on fire near New York University collapsed on Thursday, two nearby buildings began burning and several people were injured, firefighters said. Orange flames and black smoke billowed from the facade and roof of the five-story building in Manhattan, near several NYU buildings and the Washington Square Park area. Flames were spreading to other buildings. Firefighters said at least 12 people were hurt, three critically, and other people were being evaluated at the scene. The area was being evacuated, and the city’s health department advised residents to keep their windows closed because of the smoke.
Investigators were looking into whether there had been a gas leak. There were some reports of an explosion before the fire. Adil Choudhury, who lives a block away, ran outside when he heard “a huge boom.” “Already there was smoke everywhere” when he saw the building, he said. “The flames were coming out from the roof. The fire was coming out of every window.” Freelance photographer Michael Seto said he could feel the explosion in his apartment, about 1 1/2 blocks away. “It short of shook,” he said. He grabbed his camera, ran outside and found a crowd gathering, looking at a brick tenement-style building with a restaurant on the first floor.
“By the second story, the front part of the building, the facade, the first and second stories, it looked like, had collapsed into the street,” he said. Rubble was on the sidewalk, and glass and debris had been flung across an avenue. As Seto ran up to the building, a fire was starting inside it. “It spread very quickly and pretty much engulfed the first floor,” he said. Meanwhile, a man was climbing up the fire escape, not down, he said. “People were calling to him that the building’s on fire — he needs to get down,” and he did, Seto said. He saw one person lying on the ground, being attended to by two to three passers-by who were holding his head still.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Don’t miss — Crossroads Magazine 2015 Spring Edition, coming Saturday, March 28.
The time has come to end sisters’ four-year silence DEAR ABBY: I have been estranged from my sister for four years. She lives across the country, so it hasn’t been difficult to hold a grudge. Either because I’m turning 50 this year, or maybe it’s oldfashioned guilt, I have been feeling the right thing to do is to make amends. My quesAbigail tion is -Van Buren how? Should I write a letter, send an Dear Abby email or call her? To be honest, if she made those efforts to me, I would rebuff them. The two of us are similar, so what would be a good way to bridge the conflict? — HARDHEADED HAWAIIAN DEAR H.H.H.: If you call your sister, her knee-jerk reaction might be to hang up. If you email her, it’s too easy to hit “delete.” Write her a letter. Tell her you love her, miss her and are sorry for the estrangement. If there is something you need to apologize for, do it in the letter. Wait a week, then give her a call.If she is as similar to you as you think, she may be as glad to hear your voice as you will be to hear hers. And if she’s not, your con-
science will be clear because you tried. DEAR ABBY: For the past few years, my mother, with whom I spend my birthday every year, has gotten into the habit of buying my birthday presents the day of. She waits until my birthday day, then buys them in a rush all at one store or suggests we go shopping together. She’s not stingy on price. In fact, she tends to spend more than I think she should. What bothers me is she makes no effort to prepare a gift in advance and just asks me then and there what I want. She also often buys me a number of things I didn’t ask for. The last thing I want to do on my birthday is go shopping. It has made me increasingly less excited about my birthday each year. How do I explain to her without sounding ungrateful that I’d rather receive one thoughtful present than a lot of expensive ones? — DOWN ON BIRTHDAYS IN HOUSTON DEAR DOWN ON BIRTHDAYS: Excuse me, but you DO sound ungrateful. Your mother may not be as emotionally invested in birthday celebrations as you are. Or, she may do this because she wants to ensure that you have gifts for your birthday you can actually use. Rather than criticize her generosity, why not mention in the weeks before your birthday
what you might like to have? If you do, it might save her some money and you some frustration. DEAR ABBY: My daughter is being married soon, and I have an enormous fear that I need some help with. I can’t dance. At all. I took some lessons, but I have no sense of rhythm. Although I tell people I can’t and won’t dance, inevitably some guy has a little too much to drink and tries to drag me to the dance floor. My husband dances and I encourage him to have a good time, but if he’s dancing and I’m sitting alone, someone is sure to ask me. Please help me with a good comeback or a little white lie to keep me off the dance floor! — CAN’T DANCE IN COLORADO DEAR CAN’T DANCE: I suppose the most common little white lie would be to plead a sprained ankle. But a more honest reply would be to thank the person and say you prefer not to because you’re not comfortable on the dance floor. Said with a smile, it shouldn’t offend anybody, even if he has had a few. 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). Stop worrying about whether you’re original enough. You can’t help but be original -- there is no other you. Deliver and let the others do the analyzing. They will anyway! TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Ultimately, planning will save you time. Work on your blueprint before you start to build. When you take the time to map out your main objectives, you’ll be successful. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Someone is working hard to make you proud. Maybe your opinion shouldn’t matter so much to this person, but it does. Your sensitivity in this matter will contribute to harmony in your environment. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Acknowledge human fallibility and accept your own. No one is expecting you to be anything other than who you are. If you don’t allow yourself to make mistakes, you’re not allowing your-
self to grow. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Friends get the benefit of your generosity. While they may not be able to repay you monetarily, their appreciation will make you rich in ways you were not expecting. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Feel that financial squeeze? You might say it’s an invitation to do what it takes to become more solvent. Review expenditures. A few adjustments, and you’ll be better off than before. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your environment and your emotions are linked together. You’ll be at your best in a cheerful place filled with natural light and happy music. Take yourself there! SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Your nutritional needs change from day to day, year to year. Check in with yourself to be sure you’re changing with them. Also be honest with yourself. Are you using food for sustenance or for another purpose?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). This game you’re playing has many rounds, and the scoring is overly complicated. Instead of waiting for the judgment, rate yourself as you go. Your self-assessment is what will matter most anyhow. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re too talented to waste time in groups that operate way below your skill level. You are not running a charity, after all. It will take extra effort to find a worthy group, but it’s an effort you should make. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have something important to say. You may even be bold enough to mention what others wouldn’t dare voice. Yours isn’t the only perspective, but it is honest and thought-provoking. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Too much introspection will get tedious. Throw the attention off of yourself and onto a project. You’ll still learn about yourself, but you’ll have more fun doing it.

Today
Sizing up the economy The Commerce Department delivers today its third and final estimate of U.S. economic growth in the fourth quarter. Growth in the overall economy slowed significantly in the October-December quarter. Economists expect growth will be revised slightly to a rate of 2.4 percent, up from the previous estimate of 2.2 percent. That would still leave the economy expanding far below the 5 percent rate in the third quarter.

Ship shape results?
Eye on consumers
Higher ticket prices and onboard spending helped lift revenue for Carnival in its fiscal year ended Nov. 30. The world’s No. 1 cruise ship operator, due to report fiscal first-quarter earnings today, also made strides cutting costs and reducing fuel consumption. Management noted in December that advance bookings and prices for the first three quarters of this year were running ahead of last year. Will Carnival turn in improved quarterly results?
Consumers have been feeling better about the economy this year, despite the impact of harsh winter weather. The University of Michigan’s index of consumer sentiment slid to 95.4 last month from an 11-year high of 98.1 in January. Even so, the February reading remained at the highest level in eight years. Economists anticipate the March reading, due out today, dipped to 91.8. That’s still up from 80 a year ago.

Father asks how to help unemployed son WIZARD OF ID
DILBERT
GARFIELD
FORT KNOX
PICKLES
Dear Annie: My youngest son is 34 years old and lives with my wife and me. He is an alcoholic and is unemployed, with no interest in getting a job. He helps at home by doing the cooking. He is a great cook by trade. He was laid off as head cook at a restaurant and can’t get over it. My son is a good person, and I love him very much. He claims he was blackballed. He has had 10 good jobs over the past 15 years, but has had at least five DUIs and has been in jail three times. Could this be true? Is there any way I could get him out of the house and into a work program? My wife will not back me up when I tell him he has to get a job. — Beside Myself Dear Beside: Employers routinely refuse to hire those who have a drug or alcohol problem and have been arrested multiple times. It has nothing to do with being “blackballed.” Regardless of his cooking skills, your son is not a reliable employee. Before you check out a work program, please see if he will go to an AA meeting (aa. org). You and your wife could also benefit from understand-
Annie’s Mailbox ing how you may be enabling your son’s drinking, which undermines his efforts to find employment. For you, we recommend Al-Anon (alanon.alateen.org). Your son can still turn his life around, but he needs to get off the booze first. Dear Annie: I could have written the letter from “Tired of Sharing,” the woman in her 50s who was dating a man who always had a group of women around him. It brought back vivid memories of a crazy time in my own life. I, too, met a man who seemed witty and funny. I fell hard, ignoring all the signs of a lousy relationship blooming on the horizon. My guy had a harem of women, too. They were only “friends” whom he talked about all the time. They knew no boundaries and would call him at any hour for anything. If they wanted help, he’d drop whatever he was doing, leaving me to handle stuff at home by myself. How stupid of me not to
know that the relationship could only go downhill. My life was a living hell for a long time, culminating in a nervous breakdown. I finally had enough and moved out, and it was the best thing I ever did. He ended up marrying one of his “friends.” I dodged a big bullet. There is life after such a horrendous mistake if you get out in time. I always thought I had to have a man in my life in order to be happy. But after years of dating and being in unhappy relationships, I gave it all up, and I’ve never been happier or more free. It’s exhilarating to know you can do for yourself and be truly content with life. I would never go back to that crazy lifestyle. Tell that woman to run away as fast as she can. She’ll be glad she did. — Older and Wiser Dear Older: No one should remain in a relationship where you don’t feel valued, where you think you have to put up with constant mistreatment and disregard because otherwise you would be on your own.

LOS ANGELES — Sam Dekker scored a career-high 23 points, Frank Kaminsky added 19 and top-seeded Wisconsin rallied in the final 10 minutes to hold off North Carolina 79-72 Thursday night and advance to the final eight of the NCAA Tournament. Zak Showalter came off the bench to score six points in the Badgers’ 19-7 comeback run that sent them into the West Regional final Saturday against either No. 2 seed Arizona or sixth-seeded Xavier. Brice Johnson and Justin Jackson scored 15 points each for the fourth-seeded Tar Heels (26-12), who got within one with 4:21 remaining but couldn’t retake the lead they
owned for much of the second half. Marcus Paige hit consecutive 3-pointers that drew Carolina within one with 54 seconds to go, but Wisconsin (34-3) made all eight of its free throws — four by Kaminsky — over the closing seconds. Paige added 12 points for the Tar Heels. The teams shot exactly the same — 46 percent — for the game, but the Badgers improved to 58 percent in the second half and made 20 of 23 free throws to keep their hopes of a second straight Final Four berth alive. The Tar Heels were trying to reach a regional final for the first time since back-toback appearances in 2011 and
‘12. They appeared to have the game in hand when they were up by seven and Kaminsky went down with his hands covering his eyes. Turns out “Frank the Tank” was just getting his team revved up. With Kaminsky on the bench, his right eye reddened after being hit by Isaiah Hicks, the Badgers launched the 19-7 run that put them back in front, 65-60. Kaminsky quickly returned to hit a 3-pointer, and Showalter scored four straight, including a layup off his own steal, putting the red-clad Wisconsin fans in full-throated cheers. Carolina’s Kennedy Meeks returned from a sprained left knee last weekend to bother
Kaminsky early before getting in foul trouble. Trailing by one, the Tar Heels outscored the Badgers 14-6 to take their largest lead, 53-46. Berry and Hicks had four apiece while the Badgers struggled to make a shot. Kaminsky got hit in the eye by Hicks on his layup that ended Carolina’s run. He covered his face, but eventually got up and played the rest of the game with an eye that was open even less than his usual sleepy appearance. Dekker carried the Badgers offensively with 15 points in the first half, including a layup that just beat the buzzer to pull Wisconsin within 3331, just the sixth time the Badgers trailed at the break this season.

Notre Dame races by Wichita State to Elite 8 The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Notre Dame’s march through March is picking up speed. Demetrius Jackson scored 20 points and the third-seeded Irish dominated Wichita State 81-70 in the Midwest regional semifinals on Thursday night to advance to the Elite Eight for the first time in 36 years. The Irish (32-5) shot 75 percent (18 of 24) in the second half, easily pulling away
from the seventh-seeded Shockers (30-5) after Wichita State took its first and only lead on a layup by Darius Carter early in the second half. Pat Connaughton added 16 points and 10 rebounds for Notre Dame and Jerian Grant had nine points and 11 assists as the Irish won their eighth straight. Notre Dame will play either unbeaten Kentucky or West Virginia on Saturday night with a Final Four spot on the
line. Fred VanVleet led Wichita State with 25 points but the Shockers simply couldn’t keep up with the sharp-shooting Irish. The Shockers appeared ready to take control after climbing out of a 13-point deficit to go up 38-37 on Carter’s basket with 16:37 to go. Jackson knocked down a 3-pointer to put the Irish back in front and Wichita State — eyeing a rematch with
the Wildcats in the regional final after Kentucky ended the Shockers’ perfect season last spring — couldn’t respond. Notre Dame didn’t give them a chance. Once Grant decided to become a distributor after missing his all five of his first-half shots, the Irish soared. Notre Dame hit eight straight during a 38-18 surge that left Wichita State reeling Please see ELITE | 11A
Coleman looks to keep Tennessee’s draft alive The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee’s streak of having at least one player selected in every NFL draft for the past half century could end this year. Cornerback Justin Coleman is the Volunteers’ top pro prospect, and he is a projected late-round pick. Tennessee is attempting to avoid being shut out of the
draft for the first time since 1963. “I actually just heard that like a couple of weeks ago,” Coleman said Wednesday after Tennessee’s Pro Day event. “It would always be an honor if I was the one to continue that streak and get drafted.” “That would be pretty cool.” The only schools with longer streaks of having at least
one player drafted each year are Notre Dame, Michigan, Southern California, Michigan State, Florida and Nebraska, according to STATS. This also could become the first year since the draft began in 1936 that neither of Tennessee’s two Southeastern Conference programs - Tennessee and Vanderbilt - had anyone selected. Coleman was the lone player from
either team to participate in this year’s NFL Scouting Combine, though Vanderbilt long snapper Andrew East was at the Senior Bowl. The only years in which Tennessee hasn’t had a player drafted were 1938, 1960 and 1963. Vanderbilt had at least one player selected in each of Please see COLEMAN | 11A
One-handed UT-Martin pitcher excels for Skyhawks BY DAVID BRANDT AP Sports Writer
Rick Robinson was settling into his new job as the baseball coach at TennesseeMartin, moving some things around his office when he came across a few articles that had been written about the previous year’s team. He made a somewhat startling discovery: His best returning pitcher had just one hand.
Now, Carter Smith is turning into one of the best pitchers in the Ohio Valley Conference. The 6-foot-2 left-handed senior has been solid as a weekend starter for the Skyhawks, leading the conference with a 2.03 ERA in 31 innings while striking out 29. Most gratifying for Smith is he’s being looked at as a good college pitcher instead of a curiosity.
“It’s great that it’s a good story, but what I really wanted is to have success at this level,” Smith said. “It’s just working hard, staying persistent and being willing to put the time in to get better.” The 22-year-old from St. Louis was born without a right hand, but that didn’t stop him from grabbing a ball and glove as a youngster to play catch with his five siblings.
He learned how to throw and catch through trial and error, slowly perfecting the technique that would allow him to have success at the Division I level. When he pitches, he throws with his left hand while balancing the glove on right forearm. After he lets go of a pitch he quickly slips his left hand into the glove so that he can field a potential line drive, bunt or hard grounder.

those years. Tennessee’s lack of prospects is unusual for a program that has produced nine first-round picks over the last nine drafts, but it doesn’t come as much of a surprise. Tennessee played the most true freshmen of any Football Bowl Subdivision program last season.
The Vols started only one senior on offense and two on defense in their TaxSlayer Bowl victory over Iowa. The Vols’ top senior for most of the season was linebacker A.J. Johnson, who got suspended from all team-related activities in November and was indicted last month on aggravated rape charges. Johnson didn’t participate in Tennessee’s Pro
Day event, and his invitation to the combine was rescinded after news of his indictment came out. So Coleman took center stage on Wednesday.

April Fool’s celebrates new year Co-pilot caused crash in France for Mom, ancient calendar The Associated Press
Wednesday will be a fun day for me. It is my mother’s 83rd birthday. And, of course, it is also April Fool’s Day. I have always loved teasing my mother on that day, the day of her birth, as well as Stacy the day set to Jones aside lampoon The the unsusDowtowner pecting. Just from whence does this jokester holiday originate? No definitive answer exists, but one of the predominant theories indicates that the celebration may have originated in the late 16th century. Pope Gregory XIII decreed a new Christian calendar, which later took his name as the Gregorian calendar and has remained the
standard calendar into the 21st century. Catholic monarchies first adopted the calendar, followed by Protestant nations. However, a number of people, likely resistant to change, refused to accept the new calendar. The Gregorian calendar moved the new year from April 1 to January 1, and these traditionalists were intent on celebrating the new year at the beginning of spring between March 25 and April 1 on the old calendar. They were ridiculed and became the subject of pranks by those who had accepted the Gregorian calendar. In France, pranksters stuck paper fish to the backs of those who adhered to the old calendar. Their victims were known as Poisson d’Avril, or April Fish, which remains the French term for April Fools. A theory connected
with the ancient Romans indicates that the day may have originated in a festival called Hilaria, which was an occasion to celebrate the god Attis. Hilaria and the English word “hilaria� share the same root, and the modern “Day of Joy,� or Roman Laughing Day gets its root in this holiday, which occurs around March 25. Although the holiday originated as early as the late 16th century, no mention of it was made in the writings of one of the best-known writers of that time, William Shakespeare, although writer Charles Dickens later said of the Bard that he “delights in fools in general.� However, Geoffrey Chaucer makes ambiguous reference to the day in his Canterbury Tales from much earlier: 1392, although the reference cannot be confirmed.

writes: “When that the monthe in which the world bigan / That highte March, whan God first maked man, / Was complet, and passed were also / Syn March bigan thritty dayes and two.� In this passage, he references the vain cock Chauntecler who is duped by a fox and almost eaten due to his foolishness around the first of spring— and the first of the year on the previous calendar. Whatever the origin, the holiday was popularized in England by prankplaying and foolishness around the 1700s, and the tradition has continued for over two centuries. The BBC news reported record spaghetti crops in 1957, even displaying footage of noodles being harvested from trees. In the mid-80s, Sports Illustrated tricked its readers by touting a rookie pitcher, Sidd Finch, who could throw a fastball at over 168 miles per hour. Even fast food chains have joined the fun. Taco Bell purportedly bought the Liberty Bell in 1996, and planned to rename it the Taco Liberty Bell. Burger King, in 1998, had some customers requesting the “Left-Handed Whopper,� as a result of April Fool’s advertising. According to Health magazine online, April Fool’s Day is good for the body and spirit. Its encouragement of “jokes, hoaxes...pranks, [and] belly laughs� also supposedly brings other benefits, including relief of stress and anxiety, as well as a positive effect on brain activity. Laughter, which goes along with the day, also can reduce strain on the heart by relaxing blood vessels and lowering blood pressure and decreasing heart rate. So, for Mom: may she live another 83 wonderful years. By the way, did I tell you that there’s a woman somewhere in the world who has indeed lived to the ripe age of 166? Well, perhaps not, but Happy April Fool’s Day anyway!

PARIS — The co-pilot of the Germanwings jet barricaded himself in the cockpit and intentionally rammed the plane full speed into the French Alps, ignoring the captain’s frantic pounding on the door and the screams of terror from passengers, a prosecutor said Thursday. In a split second, all 150 people aboard the plane were dead. Andreas Lubitz’s “intention (was) to destroy this plane,� Marseille prosecutor Brice Robin said, laying out the horrifying conclusions French investigators reached after listening to the last minutes of Tuesday’s Flight 9525 from the plane’s black box voice data recorder. German Chancellor Angela Merkel said the conclusions brought the tragedy to a “new, simply incomprehensible dimension.� The prosecutor said there was no indication of terrorism, and did not elaborate on why investigators do not suspect a political motive. He said they are instead focusing on the co-pilot’s “personal, family and professional environment� to try to determine why he did it. The Airbus A320 was flying from Barcelona to Duesseldorf when it lost radio contact with air traffic controllers and began dropping from its cruising altitude of 38,000 feet. The prosecutor said Lubitz did not say a word as he set the plane on an eightminute descent into the craggy French mountainside that pulverized the plane. He said the German co-pilot’s responses, initially courteous in the first part of the trip, became “curt� when the captain began the midflight briefing on the planned landing. Robin said the pilot, who has not been identified, left the cockpit when the plane reached cruising altitude, presumably to go to the lavatory. Then the 28-yearold co-pilot took control of the jet as requested. “When he was alone, the co-pilot manipulated the buttons of the flight monitoring system to

initiate the aircraft’s descent,� Robin said. The pilot knocked several times “without response,� the prosecutor said, adding that the cockpit door could only be blocked manually from the inside. The co-pilot said nothing from the moment the captain left, Robin said. “It was absolute silence in the cockpit.� The A320 is designed with safeguards to allow emergency entry into the cockpit if a pilot inside is unresponsive. But the override code known to the crew does not go into effect — and indeed goes into a lockdown — if the person inside the cockpit specifically denies entry. During the flight’s final minutes, pounding could be heard on the cockpit door as the plane’s instrument alarms sounded. But the co-pilot’s breathing was calm, Robin said. “You don’t get the impression that there was any particular panic, because the breathing is always the same. The breathing is not panting. It’s a classic, human breathing,� Brice said. No distress call ever went out from the cockpit, and the control tower’s pleas for a response went unanswered. Air traffic control cleared the area to allow the plane to make an emergency landing if needed, and asked other planes to try to make contact. The French air force scrambled a fighter jet to try to head off the crash. Just before the plane hit the mountain, passengers’ cries of terror could be heard on the voice recorder. “The victims realized just at the last moment,� Robin said. “We can hear them screaming.� The victims’ families “are having a hard time believing it,� he said. Many families visited an Alpine clearing near the scene of the crash Thursday. French authorities set up a viewing tent in the hamlet of Le Vernet for family members to look toward the site of the crash, so steep and treacherous that it can only be reached by a long journey on foot or rappelling from a helicopter. Lubitz’ family was in France but was being kept separate from the other families, Robin said. Helicopters shuttled back and forth form the crash site Thursday, as investigators continue retrieving remains and pieces of the plane, shattered from the highspeed impact of the crash. Airlines in Europe are not required to have two people in the cockpit at all times, unlike the standard U.S. operating procedure, which was changed after the 9/11 attacks to require a flight attendant to take the spot of a briefly departing pilot. Europe’s third-largest budget airline, Norwegian Air Shuttle, announced Thursday that it plans to adopt new rules requiring two crew members to always be present in the cockpit. Neither the prosecutor nor Lufthansa indicated there was anything the pilot could have done. Robin would not give details on the co-pilot’s religion or his ethnic background. German authorities were taking charge of the investigation into him. Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr said that before Thursday’s shocking revelations, the airline was already “appalled� by what had happened.

Religion Briefs ‘Heaven is for Real,’ ‘90 Minutes’ removed from Lifeway bookstores NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- The publishing arm of the Southern Baptist Convention has stopped selling popular accounts of the afterlife like “Heaven is for Real” and “90 Minutes in Heaven” at its national chain of Lifeway Christian Bookstores. Last summer, Southern Baptists at their annual convention warned that such books and films can lead people astray with “personal testimonies that cannot be corroborated” and sometimes conflict with Scripture. They overwhelmingly passed a resolution declaring “the sufficiency of biblical revelation over subjective experiential” accounts of heaven and hell.
Jewish leader: US-Israel tensions provoke anti-Semitism around the world WASHINGTON -- A Jewish leader says recent tensions between the U.S. and Israel have contributed to a rise in global anti-Semitism. Friction between President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has grown over policy differences about the creation of a Palestinian state and the U.S.-led international nuclear talks with Iran. The president of the World Jewish Congress, Ronald Lauder, told a congressional committee Tuesday that when people around the world see “even the best friend of Israel is having problems with them,” it provokes negative attitudes toward Jews. Lauder said Jews in Europe are increasingly the targets of radical Islamic terrorism like the recent deadly attacks in Paris and Copenhagen.

MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- Alabama would allow adoption agencies — including those with state contracts — to refuse to place children with samesex couples on religious grounds, under a bill introduced in the Alabama Legislature.

The bill would also prohibit the state from refusing to license, or contract with, the groups that deny services to people on religious grounds.

Over the past few weeks my wife has been going through boxes and Gary boxes of Andrews what we have saved Devotionals from when our four children were in school. She has neatly divided and marked the contents for each one of our children. We have anything from sports memorabilia, newspaper clippings and photos, to report cards, journals they wrote, stuffed animals, etc. I remember a story I read about an elderly father that was doing the same thing we are. He came across his son’s journal and remembered the journal he kept also. He opened up his journal to a certain date and it read, “Went fishing with my son today. Terrible day, didn’t catch a fish.” He opened his son’s journal to the same date and read one of the most shocking things he had ever read. His son had written in his journal, “Went fishing with my dad today. One of the best days of my life.” It is unique that two people can look at the contents of a day, after spending time with each other, and see it totally different. One saw the day as a duty to fulfill and the other saw
it as a time to spend with his dad. It is a sad day when we, as adults, look on the time we spend with our children and grandchildren as a duty to fulfill instead of viewing the great joy that they can provide for us and we can provide for them. My wife and I made a promise to each other that when we were blessed with children that we would grow up with them. We would spend time with them and stay active in their lives. The Lord has tremendously blessed us and our children. Three out of the four are married and have families of their own. The fourth is a high school counselor and associates with teenage children every day. Spending time with our children has been most rewarding. They continue to come home and we are invited to their homes. It is a sad day when parents are so involved with themselves, such as jobs, social life, etc., that they have little or no time for their own children. It’s amazing how many nannies, daycares, and others are raising children for families. Most young marriages require two jobs to make ends meet. This is because the younger generation is always trying to have more than they really need or can afford. My wife was a stay at home mom and this was one of the best
decisions we have ever made. She is a certified school teacher but stayed at home with our children until our youngest started school. She then went to work when they went to school and came home when they did. It was a great day when our daughter announced that she would be staying home with her children. She quit teaching school when her first child was born. Time is the most precious item we can ever offer our children. Cherish every moment that you have with them because, and you can truly believe me on this one, time waits for no one and tomorrow they will leave you nest empty. As my wife had compiled the items for each of our children, she came across a school assignment that my son had written. The assignment was to tell about his best friend. When she showed it to me big old tears came into my eyes as I read, “Let me tell you about my dad, my best friend.” Memories such as these can never be lost or replaced.
(Suggested daily Bible reading: Sunday – Mark 10:13-16; Monday – 2 Samuel 7:1-17; Tuesday – Ecclesiastes 6:1-6; Wednesday – Matthew 18:1-6; Thursday – Ephesians 6:1-4; Friday – Titus 1:6; Saturday – 2 Chronicles 24:1-2.) It’s my wish that all parents could spend more time with their children. Even with all the gifts we offer them and big ticketed items we buy for them, nothing can replace the love or the time we can give them. Prayer: Thank you Lord for the children you have blessed me with. Be with them each and every day and lead them on the path you would have them go. I pray that our parents of today will give more time to their children and raise them to know you and your saving grace. Amen. (Gary Andrews is the author of Encouraging Words: 30-days in God’s Word.
