Fisher named JA Citizen of the Year BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
Recognized for his lasting contributions to all aspects of life in the Corinth/Alcorn area, Jimmy Blaine Fisher was honored as Junior Auxiliary of Corinth’s 2015 Outstanding Citizen of the Year during Saturday night’s 53rd Annual Charity Ball. Joining the ranks of James E. “Sonny” Boatman, Mary Dee Kemp, Joe “Havis” Hurley and other past citizens of the year, the 73-year-old was delighted as he
stood behind the star-bust podium to accept his award. A generous soul with a big heart for others, Fisher was nominated by Attorney Johnny Ross, Alcorn County Coroner Jay Jones and past Citizen of the Year Betsy Whitehurst. “This nominee’s contributions to the cultural, educational and civic betterment have been of great benefit to our area. It would be very rare to find a person who has given so much of himself to the youth of Corinth and Alcorn
County in his 17-year position as Youth Court Judge, in his service to the Boy Scouts of America and his service to the Corinth School System in his long years of involvement,” said Ross. “Most of the civic organizations he’s worked with have received many hours of free legal services. Many, many people today have had their lives enriched through activities in which he has been involved. His efforts and work with numerous civic programs including the Chamber of Commerce (Alli-
ance), Kiwanis Club, Heart Fund and Habitat for Humanity have all made lasting contributions to our community.” A self-employed attorney with Sharp, Fisher and Borden Attorneys, the 2015 Outstanding Citizen worked in his family’s hardware and furniture store in his early teens and later as an attorney for the Tennessee Valley Authority before moving to Corinth.

A successful fundraiser is making it’s muddy return next month. Corinth Elementary School PTO members have been busy making final preparations for the 2nd Annual Muddy Warrior Run set for April 18 at the Corinth High School Softball Complex on Proper Street. “We had a blast last year. Despite the cooler weather and the rain, kids came from all over the area to run our slippery course,” said event co-chair Annie Richardson. “As far as I know, it’s the only event of this kind in North Mississippi.” The event features a onemile muddy outdoor course with more than 20 challenges and obstacles. Although only ages 5-18 were allowed to run the course last year, Richardson said organizers have decided to change the rules this year. “We actually had a lot of adults who wanted to run the course with their kids last year, so we decided to open it up,” she said. “We will have a special time for adults to be

What started out as a deal between mother and son morphed into an awardwinning science project for one Biggersville High School student. Dylan Streff dreamed of owning a diesel-powered truck, but had trouble convincing his family it would be a worthy investment.
“Both my mom and my grandparents felt it would be smarter to purchase a gas-powered truck, but I really wanted a diesel engine,” said the 15-year-old Streff. “So, my mom made a compromise and told me I could have one, but only if I proved to her it was better.” Taking up the challenge, the BHS 9th-grader decided to make the comparison the

The program provides a snack to more than 1,400 students everyday during the school year. “It costs us about $30 per year to provide one student the snack everyday,” Richardson said. “All proceeds from the Muddy Warrior Run will go directly to help fund the program.” Sponsors also play a important role in making the event a success. “We need sponsors ... we could not do this event without them,” added Richardson. “We have several different ways an individual or business can help.” (More more information or to register, visit corinthpto.org or email muddywarriorrun@ gmail.com.)
Broommaker receives folklife award Broommaker Jack Martin was honored this week by Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam with the Folklife Heritage Award as one of the winners of the 2015 Governor’s Arts Awards. Martin was one of two men to receive the award. The Folklife Heritage Award is presented to folk artists or organizations that have made outstanding contributions to artistic tradition. The award honors significant achievements within art forms that are rooted in the traditional or ethnic cultures of Tennessee. Artisan, educator and devoted tradition bearer, Jack Martin of Selmer is a fourth generation broom maker continuing the craft he learned from his grandfather. Owner of Hockaday Handmade Brooms, Martin has given his life, and his livelihood, to this family heritage. Still operating his great-grandfather’s nearly 100-yearold equipment, Martin creates every broom by hand, selecting materials, winding, sewing and carefully finishing each, one at a time. His brooms are found in prestigious museum and archival collections, including the Smithsonian. Martin and Hockaday Handmade Brooms have been featured on PBS, DIY Network and HGTV. Among other recognitions, Martin has been presented with the McNairy County Ambassa-
Broommaker Jack Martin of Selmer, Tennessee, owner of Hockaday Handmade Brooms, recently was honored with Tennessee’s Folklife Heritage Award. dor Award and was given the honor of representing American folk culture through displays and demonstrations at the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta. As a demonstrator, Martin’s “Living History” program has reached an estimated one million elementary school children in West Tennessee over the past 25 years. He has also expanded his business to include a larger workshop and a working-museum that is open year-round to visitors. In 1996, Martin started the Broomcorn Festival, a successful annual event held at Selmer’s largest city park in partnership
with McNairy County’s tourism, economic and cultural development agencies. Hockaday Handmade Brooms is one of today’s oldest family owned businesses in Southwest Tennessee, dating its origin to 1916. Farmer Will Hockaday, Martin’s maternal great-grandfather, harvested his own broomcorn and fashioned production equipment in his one-man saw mill and blacksmith shop. Will’s son, Jack Hockaday, inherited the craft, taught it to his daughter Mildred and continued to make brooms into the 1970s. Martin was Mildred Hockaday’s son,
and grew up on the family farm immersed in the customs of rural life. Due to economic necessity, Martin left home in search of work in the late 1980s and worked as an engineer for GE, Rockwell International and Texas Instruments. He eventually left the corporate world to return to the family farm in Selmer and restart the family broom business. With guidance from his grandfather, Martin learned to make brooms in the manner passed through his family. After replenishing and since preserving the lost broomcorn stock in late 1980s, he reinvigorated
Hockaday Handmade Brooms and began to sell his products at regional craft fairs and small retailers around the southeast. Despite advancements in technology, Martin has insisted on using his family’s time-tested handmade techniques. His meticulous method and sensitivity to detail transforms his craft items from ordinary, functional objects into works of art. Martin and his wife Dee, also known as Virginia, have also invented a drumstick made from broom-corn that is sold though the Pro-Mark company. The sticks have gained popularity among several well-known musicians including Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, who discussed them in a 2004 cover story for Rhythm Magazine. Other award-winning musical acts, including the Black Keys, Robert Plant and the Band of Joy and Clint Black, have also made use of the one-of-a-kind specialty drumsticks. As he now hands down the family business to his own children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Martin secures the broom-making tradition for other generations. He has not only succeeded in reviving Hockaday Handmade Brooms, but in creating a cultural treasure that can be valued for decades to come.

Today in History
Ex-catcher to bring uplifting message for Christ is important because He has transformed my life.” Tommy Wilson, founder of Living Free Ministries, said he is very excited to have Lyons speak at the Living Free Celebration Night. “My brother Randy (Wilson) and some of our other guys at Living Free met Barry at the Home of Grace,” said Wilson. “I believe Barry’s message is going to bring lots of inspiration to the people.” Lyons admits to having an alcohol program that began with a few beers on the weekend when he was in high school. The drinking problem got worse as Lyons got into the majors where he drank daily.

Today is Sunday, March 29, the 88th day of 2015. There are 277 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On March 29, 1912, British explorer Robert Falcon Scott, his doomed expedition stranded in an Antarctic blizzard after failing to be the first to reach the South Pole, wrote the last words of his journal: “For Gods sake look after our people.”

Former major league player Barry Lyons will soon come to Corinth to speak at Living Free Ministries. Lyons will bring his message of encouragement to the Crossroads area on Thursday, April 9. Lyons was a member of the World Series champion New York Mets in 1986 and spent five-years with the Mets. He also played for the Los Angeles Dodgers, California Angels and Chicago White Sox. “I love having the opportunity to come to Corinth and maybe inspire someone there,” said Lyons. “I want to tell them living your life
“I was always sober when I played baseball,” said Lyons. “There is easy access to alcohol in the major leagues after games and that was a problem for me.” The ’86 Mets were legendary for the numerous drug and alcohol issues that affected the players on the team, including Darryl Strawberry and Dwight Gooden. “We had a very wild bunch in ’86 that got into lots of trouble,” remarked Lyons. “It was easy to get invited to parties all over New York City.” An injured back led to the end of Lyons’ baseball career with the Mets and eventual retirement from the major leagues.
“My mind went into some dark places after I retired from baseball,” said Lyons. “I was fearful at the time because my relationship with God was not where it should have been.” Hurricane Katrina took Lyons’ business and home in 2005 and helped lead him to the Home of Grace. “I called my wife and told her I was ready to get some help for my drinking,” said Lyons. “My life was changed when I got to the Home of Grace.” Lyons said that he no longer has a desire to drink or take drugs. His relationship with Jesus has been the key to staying sober.
On this date: In 1812, the first White House wedding took place as Lucy Payne Washington, the sister of first lady Dolley Madison, married Supreme Court Justice Thomas Todd. In 1943, World War II rationing of meat, fats and cheese began. In 1951, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were convicted in New York of conspiracy to commit espionage. (They were executed in June 1953.) The Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “The King and I” opened on Broadway. In 1962, Jack Paar hosted NBC’s “Tonight” show for the final time, although the network aired a repeat the following night. (Johnny Carson debuted as host the following October.) In 1971, Army Lt. William L. Calley Jr. was convicted of murdering 22 Vietnamese civilians in the My Lai massacre. (Calley ended up serving three years under house arrest.) A jury in Los Angeles recommended the death penalty for Charles Manson and three female followers for the 1969 Tate-La Bianca murders. (The sentences were later commuted.) In 1973, the last United States combat troops left South Vietnam, ending America’s direct military involvement in the Vietnam War. In 1974, eight Ohio National Guardsmen were indicted on federal charges stemming from the shooting deaths of four students at Kent State University. (The charges were later dismissed.) In 1992, Democratic presidential front-runner Bill Clinton acknowledged experimenting with marijuana “a time or two” while attending Oxford University, adding, “I didn’t inhale and I didn’t try it again.”

Slated for 9 a.m. on Friday, May 22 at the Shiloh Ridge Golf Course in Corinth, the charity fund-raising event will take place during National EMS week. “We felt like it was a great way to not only remember our late friend and co-worker, but also to honor our local EMS and let them know their community is proud of what they do,” said Ron Strom, a paramedic at MRHC.“We want to all come together and celebrate Tom’s life while raising money for the things that Tom cared so much for, EMS and the people of Corinth.” “Last year’s four-person scramble was a big success,” he added. “We look forward to another fun time with our friends and family.” Friday, May 15 is the deadline to register and the cost to participate is $260 per team. Door prizes and cash awards will be presented to the winners of the Long Drive Contest, closest to the pin on all par 3 holes and several other exciting events.

JACKSON — A former University of Mississippi student has been indicted on federal charges connected to a noose being put on a statue of the student who integrated the school, the Justice Department said Friday. The noose and a former Georgia flag that prominently featured the Confederate battle emblem were placed on the James Meredith statue on the Ole Miss campus in Oxford in February 2014. In 1962, anti-integration protests erupted into violence and Meredith had to be escorted by armed federal agents as he enrolled under court order as the first black student at the university. The Justice Department said in a news release Friday that Graeme Phillip Harris of Alpharetta, Georgia, has been indicted on one count of conspiracy to violate civil rights and one count of using a threat of force to intimidate African-American students because of their race or color. Harris, who is white, was an Ole Miss student when the noose was placed on the statue. University spokesman Danny Blanton said Friday that Harris is no longer enrolled.
logo added to it. Individual teams can also sponsor a hole for $400. The cost includes entry for one team in the scramble and a company Timms logo for one hole. The Memorial Fund which honors the life, values and character of Tom donated two AED’s to the local community, several lifesaving devices to the police, sheriff and highway Patrol and over $6,000 in scholarships in 2014. “We had 33 teams participate last year and it was a beautiful day to play golf,” said Strom. “We are really excited about this year and look forward to donating more to the community Tom cared so much about.” Applications for scholarship awards must be received by Monday, April 20. Interested individuals should contact by email Ricki Barnett at ricki.barnett@air-evac.com or Rebecca Timms at rtimmsrdh@gmail. com. Applications can be mailed to TTMF P.O. Box 2584 Corinth,
MS 38835 or dropped off at the Air-Evac 58 base in Corinth. Timms began his EMS career as a volunteer firefighter with Farmington F.D. in 2003 before becoming a paramedic with MRHC EMS where he served his community for nine years. In addition to MRHC, he also worked for North Mississippi Medical Center EMS in Iuka. At the time of his death, he was a Flight Paramedic AirEvac Lifeteam member with AE 58 in Corinth where he served for three years. A 1986 Kossuth High School graduate, Timms earned his certification through the Northwest Shoals Community College National Register Paramedic. He was proud to be the leader of a local Boy Scout troop and enjoyed being a member of the Pig–Medic Cooking Team. The 45-year-old dedicated most of his time to helping others in need and loved being involved in EMS. A devoted father, husband and friend, he is dearly missed by all who knew him. The organizers of the event wished to thank the community for its generous support and said they look forward to hosting another successful tournament. (For more information about the golf tournament, contact Ricki Barnett by phone at 662415-1397 or by the email listed above or call Ryan Smith at 662-415-1112.

Our View
Welcome relief: School calendars remain the same Kids just love snow days, don’t they? “Hey mom, it’s snowing! Do we have to go to school?” How many times have parents heard this over the years? The excitement fades away as quickly as melting snow when it comes to payback time. Giving up Spring Break, going to school an extra hour each day, having class on Saturdays or going to school into the month of June are not fun options for either students or educators. But it’s the reality when school districts have more snow days than those scheduled into the calendar. Thanks to an attorney general’s opinion, guidance from the Mississippi Department of Education and local school board action, students and educators in the Corinth and Alcorn school districts won’t have to face any of those ugly options. Both districts will be out of school as planned in the calendar. We are certain it is a welcome relief for all. The Alcorn School District has revised its school calendar after a special meeting Tuesday night following the attorney general’s decision on missed days due to inclement weather. School will not be in session on April 6, the Monday following Easter. School will also end on May 27 as originally scheduled. Before the attorney general’s opinion, Alcorn County students were faced with going to school into June. Earlier in March, state legislators met with the attorney general and the Department of Education seeking answers. Soon, the Department of Education announced new opinions and guidelines on the weather waiver. The Corinth School District on Monday amended the school calendar to 177 student days to reflect the inclement weather waiver. Corinth students missed five days during a series of winter storms in late February and the first week of March. Alcorn County students missed six days during the same stretch. The Corinth calendar had two built-in snow days, leaving three days the district would otherwise have been forced to reschedule. Classes will remain dismissed on Good Friday, April 3, and the last day of school in Corinth will remain May 21. Thanks to the weather waiver and the local action of our school boards, we are glad our local school calendars will stay the same.

Is the European Union dying? As the European Coal and Steel Community of Jean Monnet evolved into the EU, we were told a “United States of Europe” was at hand, modeled on the USA. And other countries and continents will inevitably follow Europe’s example. There will be a North American Union of the U.S., Canada and Mexico, and a Latin America Union of the Mercosur trade partnership. In an essay, “The E.U. Experiment Has Failed,” Bruce Thornton of Hoover Institution makes the case that the verdict is in, the dream is dead, the EU is unraveling, One Europe is finished. Consider, first, economics. In 2013, Europe grew by 1 percent compared to the U.S.’s 2.2 percent. In December, unemployment in Europe was 11.4 percent. In the U.S., 5.6 percent. Americans are alarmed by the lowest labor force participation rate since Reagan, 62.7 percent. In Europe, in 2013, it was 57.5 percent. Europeans may wail over German-imposed “austerity,” but the government share of Europe’s GDP has gone from 45 percent in 2008 to 49 percent today. In Greece, it is 59 percent. Most critical is the demographic crisis. For a nation to survive, its women must produce on average 2.1 children. Europe has not seen that high a fertility rate in 40 years. Today, it is down to 1.6 children. Europeans are an aging, shrinking, disappearing, dying race. And the places of Europe’s
unborn are being filled by growing “concentrations of unassimilated and disaffected Pat Muslim imBuchanan m i g r a n t s , segregated Columnist in neighborhoods like the banlieues of Paris or the satellite ‘dish cities’ of Amsterdam. “Shut out from labor markets, plied with generous social welfare payments and allowed to cultivate beliefs and cultural practices inimical to democracy, many of these immigrants despise their new homes, and find the religious commitment and certainty of radical Islam an attractive alternative.” “Some turn to terrorism,” like the French-Algerian brothers who carried out the slaughter at the magazine Charlie Hebdo. Populist parties are surging – the U.K. Independence Party in Britain, the National Front in France, and now the “Patriotic Europeans against the Islamization of the Occident,” PEGIDA, in Germany, These parties will soon be strong enough to enter governments, impose restrictions on immigration and demand assimilation. Then the cultural conflicts may turn violent. A fundamental question has troubled European unification since the Treaty of Rome in 1957, writes Thornton: “What comprises the collective beliefs of and values that can form the foundations of a genuine
European-wide community? What is it that all Europeans believe? “Europe and its nations were forged in the matrix of ideas, ideals, and beliefs of Christianity, which gives divine sanction to notions like human rights, the sanctity of the individual, political freedom and equality. Today across Europe Christian belief is a shadow of its former self. “Fewer and fewer Europeans regularly go to Church. ... It is common for many European cathedrals to have more tourists during a service than parishioners. ... This process of secularization – already well advanced in 1887 when Nietzsche famously said, ‘God is no more than a faded word today, not even a concept’ – is nearly complete today, leaving Europe without its historical principle of unity.” Political religions – communism, fascism, Nazism – are substitute gods that failed. “Nor has secular social democracy ... provided people with a transcendent principle that justifies sacrifice for the greater good, or even gives people a reason to reproduce. “A shared commitment to leisure, a short workweek, and a generous social safety net is nothing worth killing or dying for.” And who will die for Donetsk, Luhansk or Crimea? Pacifism beckons. Every major European nation in NATO – Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Poland – will see defense spending in 2015 below 2 percent of
GDP. The idea of One Europe has depended on “the denigration of patriotism and national pride,” writes Thornton, “Yet all peoples are the products of a particular culture, language, mores, traditions, histories, landscapes. ... That sense of belonging to a community defined by a shared identity cannot be created by a single currency.” Christianity gave Europe its faith, identity, purpose and will to conquer and convert the world. Christianity created Europe. And the death of Christianity leaves the continent with no unifying principle save a watery commitment to democracy and La Dolce Vita. From Marine Le Pen’s France to Putin’s Russia, nationalism and patriotism are surging across Europe because peoples, deprived of or disbelieving in the old faith, want a new faith to give meaning, purpose, vitality to their lives, something to live for, fight for, die for. Countless millions of Muslims have found in their old faith their new faith. And the descendants of fallen-away European Christians of the 19th and 20th centuries are finding their new faith in old tribal and national identities. Less and less does multiculturalism look like the wave of the future.

Hillary is dead in water BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN Columnists
She can’t announce. Can’t raise funds. Can’t even face the allegations against her. While her political advisors may be urging her to be outspoken in her own defense, her lawyers are doubtless advising silence. Because the emails of the secretary of state almost inevitably allude to classified information, Hillary’s actions in running them through a private server may subject her to the same kind of criminal liability that has laid the likes of David Petraeus, Sandy Berger and John Deutch low. She must go into any press event knowing that all she says can and will be used against her. Nor can she change the subject. No media will cover her pronouncements about policy or her latest homily to the rights of women and girls while this scandal fills the air. And the scandal will take months to play out. The timing is not under her control. She could be dodging subpoenas as she goes to

campaign in the primary for Super Tuesday. After all, what is in those emails? More evidence of a cover-up in Benghazi? The real reason we were there in the first place? Complicity in the wiretapping of foreign leaders? Doubts about the very sanctions on Iran the administration is now crediting with starting the negotiations? Support for arming the rebels in Syria who became the ISIS thugs? Demonstrations of her gullibility and naivete in dealings with Russia? The emails will open up the former secretary of state to a degree of scrutiny that should would not have otherwise had to face. With filing deadlines coming this fall, Democrats are increasingly realizing that if they don’t have an understudy for Hillary, the show may be over, bringing down the curtain on Democratic rule. It’s one thing to have a consensus nominee. It’s quite another to enter perilous waters without an alternative should things go south. Not since the days of
Ulysses Grant has a major party entered a presidential contest with only one candidate to its name. Now that this sole contender has been wounded, worried Democrats are coming to appreciate the vulnerability of their party’s position. Will Hillary recover her balance and overcome the email scandal? Or will she face criminal investigation over misuse of classified materials? Will the dripdrip-drip of newly published emails paralyze her candidacy as worried lawyers guard her every utterance? Nobody knows. But all are becoming sure that putting all of the party’s bets on one candidate, especially as she tries to walk this legal tightrope, is not the way to go. Especially not when there is a ready alternative – also a woman, clearly a liberal, highly articulate and popular with the party’s base – so readily available. The days when the nomination seeks the candidate may appear quaint in our era of billion-dollar campaigns, but Elizabeth

Warren may be the first “drafted” candidate since Eisenhower. For her part, Warren can remain essentially passive, permitting her supporters to enter her name into presidential primaries simply as a precaution should Hillary get knocked out by her own emails. It would not be an act of ambition, just one of party loyalty, to allow her name to be put forward. She could even adopt a posture not unlike that of Gerald Ford, who let himself be nominated vice president, even as he staunchly advocated Nixon’s retention in office. Hillary’s candidacy does not need to crash and burn for Warren to let her name be entered. It has only to be damaged to the point where Democrats want a backup, a low threshold indeed.

2 still missing after apparent gas blast NEW YORK — Emergency workers continued searching Saturday for at least two people still missing after an apparent gas line explosion leveled three Manhattan apartment buildings while investigators piece together what exactly caused the blast that injured 22. Special canine units sniffed for anyone possibly still trapped beneath the heap of loose brick and rubble two days after the explosion. Detectives issued posters seeking information on the whereabouts of two men believed to have been in the sushi restaurant on the ground floor of one of the collapsed buildings: 26-year-old Moises Lucon, who worked at the restaurant, and 23-year-old Nicholas Figueroa, a bowling alley worker who had been there on a date. Their families frantically searched, showing photos of their loved ones and asking for help. Â
Americans seeking property Cuba took OMAHA, Neb. — The smell of Cuban coffee drifts from the kitchen as Carolyn Chester digs through faded photos that fill boxes spread across the dining table. In almost every frame, an American man with a salt-andpepper mustache and a raven-haired woman — Chester’s parents — smiling at good fortune that, they could not know, would soon be snatched away. “I always heard about Cuba ... and all this money that we lost and
‘Maybe one day,’ but I didn’t understand it,â€? Chester says. Six decades later, that day may finally be nearing for Chester and others like her. To reach it, though, diplomacy will have to settle very old scores. After Fidel Castro seized power in 1959, Cuba confiscated property belonging to thousands of American citizens and companies. Edmund and Enna Chester lost an 80-acre farm, thousands of dollars’ worth of stock, and a Buick that, who knows, may still be plying Havana’s streets. In 1996, Congress passed a law insisting Cuba pay for confiscated property, valued today at $7 billion, before lifting the U.S. embargo. Â
Boston expecting a flood of claims BOSTON — After the Big Dig-out, it’s time for the Big Payout. Or will it be the Big Denial? New England’s epic winter is on pace to produce a corresponding number of claims as thousands of homeowners seek to repair damage. Successive storms dumped 110 inches of snowfall in Boston alone, a record for an entire season. “It’s a part-time job just to navigate it all,� says Cathy Schwarz, a Plymouth resident who is working with her insurer and repair companies after rooftop ice dams caused leaks in her house. “Everybody says you’ll get through this, but all I can see is a house that’s just not livable right now.� The winter was so unusually severe that governors across the six-state region have

requested or are in the process of requesting federal disaster relief to help state and local governments pay for snow removal and other costs. The requests, however, would not cover home or private property damage. Local insurance agents and public adjusters — firms that help homeowners navigate the claim process — say they’ve been swamped with inquiries.

Hundreds at funeral of man found hanged PORT GIBSON — Loss and healing were the focus of eulogies as more than 200 people packed a Baptist church for the memorial service for a black man found hanging behind his home in Mississippi. The Vicksburg Post reports that 54-year-old Otis Byrd was mentioned just a handful of times during the 90-minute service Friday at Mount Burner Baptist Church in Pattison. State, local and federal authorities continue to investigate whether Byrd’s death was suicide or murder. Claiborne County Sheriff Marvin Lucas says FBI profilers were in Port Gibson, gathering evidence. He also said Friday that Byrd’s hands were not bound and it appeared Byrd had not stepped off anything. Â

Suppliers asked to breed no-horn cows DES MOINES, Iowa — Food manufacturers and restaurants are taking the dairy industry by the horns on an animal welfare issue that’s long bothered activists but is little known to consumers: the painful removal of budding horn tissue from calves so farm workers or other animals don’t get gored later. It’s routine to remove the horn tissue from young calves before it attaches to the skull, either by burning it out with heat or chemicals or digging it out with sharp instruments. Certain cows carry a dominant no-horn genetic trait, and are called polled cows. Research has shown it’s cheaper to breed polled cattle than to dehorn cows, but experts say the dairy industry has been slow to expand polled genetics because it’s been focused on boosting milk productivity. Yet, the change may come sooner than producers expected, as some of the nation’s largest food companies, such as General Mills, Nestle and Dunkin’ Brands, are asking dairy suppliers to incorporate polled cattle into their herds.
Medicaid, colleges’ budgets to increase JACKSON — Mississippi’s budget writers say Medicaid, universities and community colleges will get more money than previous estimates called for in the year beginning July 1, in a total budget of $6.1 billion. House Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson and Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Buck Clarke say they will add $81 million to the state-federal Medicaid program, as well as $25 million or more for universities and $9 million for community colleges. Gov. Phil Bryant already signed a $2.5 billion K-12 education budget that lawmakers sent to him early, in an unusu-

13 candidates enter congressional race JACKSON — Thirteen people have qualified to run for an open congressional seat in north Mississippi. Although candidates run without party labels in special elections, most in the race identify as Republicans. Friday was the deadline for candidates to enter the 1st District race to succeed the late Republican Rep. Alan Nunnelee, who died of brain cancer in early February. Nunnelee was first elected in 2010, after serving 15 years as a state senator from Tupelo. The special election is May 12, and a runoff is June 2. The winner will serve most of the twoyear term that Nunnelee started in January. The 13 who qualified by Friday’s 5 p.m. deadline are: — Boyce Adams of Columbus, president of a software business called TheBiz. — Sam Adcock of Columbus, who has worked for Airbus Helicopters and has been a defense and security adviser to former Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss. — Nancy Collins of Tupelo, a state senator who has worked as a nurse and is founding president of Sanctuary Hospice House. — Edward Holliday of Tupelo, a dentist. — Dr. Starner Jones of Pontotoc, an emergency room physician. — Trent Kelly of Tupelo, who is district attorney for Lee, Pontotoc, Al-
corn, Monroe, Itawamba, Prentiss and Tishomingo counties. — Chip Mills of Fulton, an attorney who serves as Itawamba County prosecutor. — Greg Pirkle of Tupelo, an attorney. — Henry Ross of Eupora, an attorney, former mayor and former circuit judge who ran unsuccessfully for the 1st District seat in 2010 and 2012. — Daniel Sparks of Belmont, an attorney. — Mike Tagert of Starkville, the northern district state transportation commissioner. — Quentin Whitwell of Oxford, an attorney and businessman who previously served on the Jackson City Council. — Zinn, of Pontotoc, an attorney who has worked as an adviser for former Jackson mayors Harvey Johnson Jr. and Chokwe Lumumba.

Ole Miss chancellor: Job talks continue JACKSON — University of Mississippi Chancellor Dan Jones and trustees said Friday that they’re still talking about renewing his contract, but that they haven’t yet reached an agreement. “It’s likely going to take a couple of days for us to consummate our discussion,� Jones said in a phone interview. The 12-member College Board met for more than 90 minutes in closed session Friday afternoon. But it’s unclear whether trustees, who oversee all eight of Mississippi’s public universities, took any votes. Afterward, Higher Education Commissioner Jim Borsig, the board’s chief executive, emphasized that the board wants to keep talks under wraps.

Officials: Mental health vetting of pilots ineffective Associated Press
WASHINGTON — There is little effective, real-world screening of airline pilots for mental problems despite regulations in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere that say mental health should be part of their regular medical exams, pilots and safety experts said. The crash of Germanwings Flight 9525 into an Alpine mountain, which killed all 150 people aboard, has raised ques-
tions about the mental state of the co-pilot. Authorities believe the co-pilot deliberately sought to destroy the Airbus A320 as it flew Tuesday. Technically, doctors are supposed to probe for mental problems, but pilots said that’s usually not how it works. “There really is no mental health vetting,” said John Gadzinski, a captain with a major U.S. airline and former Navy pilot.

“We happened to have a Saturday off and decided to come and help,” said Toomer. Both younger Toomers are Eagle Scouts and are used to assisting with community projects. “This is a good way for them to give back,” said their father Bernard. National Park Day, co-sponsored by the Civil War Trust and the History Channel, has been held the past 19 years. Supporters use the time to preserve and maintain historical treasures
such as Shiloh National Military Park and the Interpretive Center. Volunteers used the 9 a.m. to noon time at the Interpretive Center to pull feeds from around rose bushes and mulch the area. “Since the weather changed from earlier in the week we didn’t want them dipping their hands in cold water and cleaning the bronze features on the walkway,” said Henson. Those who took part in the day received a free Park Day T-shirt and patch courtesy of the Civil War Trust.

Sunday, May 10, through Friday, May 15, for the international competition,” said BHS Principal Chad Lindamood. “He left before the ceremony got started not realizing when it was. So, we were surprised and excited when he got the phone call saying he had won some major awards.” Echoing the principals
sentiment, Streff’s Biology I instructor, Daniel Rowsey expressed pride for his student’s accomplishments saying he came up with the creative idea all on his own and only advised him on how to best set up his board. “Dylan has always enjoyed science fair projects and that’s because he chooses to research what
he is interested in and has background knowledge in. Of course, hoping for a diesel himself if he successfully proved his hypothesis to his mom was a tremendous motivator, too,” said Rowsey who also taught Streff in the 7th and 8th grade. “He was careful to follow all guidelines, thoroughly research his topic and il-
lustrate his findings. He not only gathered information, but he also used his critical thinking skills and drew conclusions based on data analysis.” “His awards are well deserved, and he is an outstanding representative for Biggersville High School and the Alcorn School District,” he added. A farmer for several years, Dylan Streff drives a tractor for Brandon Moore and has ambitions to become a chemical salesman. In his spare time, the soon to be 16-year-old enjoys riding 4-wheelers, working hard and hanging out with friends. He is excited about the upcoming purchase of his new truck. In addition to Streff, two other BHS students won awards. Lynleigh Crabb earned first place at state competition for her supermarket sweep where she swabbed different surfaces at Walmart in search of lurking bacteria. Likewise, Noah Lawson won first place at the science fair held at NEMCC.
wanis Club of Corinth for 46 years, his other civic affiliations include, Habitat for Humanity board member, Corinth/ Alcorn Area Chamber of Commerce (now Alliance) past president, and committee member for Industrial Development and Recruitment and Tourism, Young Men’s
Christian Association board member, Corinth Boys Club board member and planning committee member for the 1973, 1976 and 1979 Crossroads Jubilee. “Probably the greatest contribution of lasting effect has been his entire family’s – including his wife Rosemary Latimer Fisher and sons, James ‘Jay’ Fisher (Maria), William Blaine Fisher and Harvey Ellis Fisher (Jane Harrison) – devotion and dedication to First United Method-
ist Church in Corinth of which the nominee has been a member of since 1969,” said Ross. Serving on the Administrative Board as Chairman, Pastor/Parish Committee, Chairman of Trustees and as a member of the Chancel Choir for 45 years, Fisher has been deeply dedicated to his church and members of the congregation. As Boy Scout scoutmaster of Troop 129 at FUMC, he led many boys to the rank of Eagle Scout. He served on the Yocona Area Council to Boy Scouts of America he received the Silver Beaver Award for his service. A member and past president of the Corinth Theatre-Arts Board, he devoted his time and efforts to set building and improvements to the theatre where he appeared in several productions. He was
an invaluable promoter through his presence, the participation of his children and his monetary contributions. He was for many years, a member of the Krossroads Kollection community choir and the Corinth Siege and Battle commission where he still serves as a member and officer working to acquire land for the commission. A 15-year member and past president of the Corinth School Board, Fisher afforded many opportunities to influence students. He lectured at Alcorn County Vocational and Technology Center and was of great benefit in educating and assisting area youth through his Boy Scout and Youth Court work. Jimmy Fisher is the grandfather of Noel Blaine Fisher, Jonathan Luke Fisher and Lacy Rose Fisher.

dents up to 9th grade must participate in a science fair, Streff presented his project at the BHS science fair, held in the school’s gymnasium on Friday, Jan 23. After successfully proving his case, the Corinth resident was surprised to learn he had not only defended his viewpoint, but also won first place in the school competition. Citing research as the toughest part of his project, Steff said he had fun making his argument. “I’m pretty sure my mom was going to get it for me anyway, but this was a lot more interesting,” he said. Shortly after winning at his school’s fair, Steff was invited to Northeast Community College for the Mississippi Region IV Science Fair where he walked away with the Mu Alpha Theta Award. “Dylan was also named a 2015 Intel International Science and Engineering Fair Finalist and will have the opportunity as one of only 11 students in the state to travel to Pittsburgh, Penn. on

Basketball star creates compelling mystery for youth BY TERRI SCHLICHENMEYER The Bookworm Sez
“Stealing the Game” by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Raymond Obstfeld c.2015, Disney Hyperion $16.99 / $17.99 Canada 293 pages Oh, how you hate to lose! You hate it so much, in fact, that it’s not really an option: you’ll do anything and work hardest to make sure that you’re not finishing last. It’s all or nothing for you, and in the new book “Stealing the Game” by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Raymond Obstfeld, it’s about more than how you play the game. Everyone at Orangetree Middle School knew that thirteen-year-old Chris Richards was someone they could trust, a decentenough student, but kind of quiet. Even Chris himself would admit that, and he was okay with it. He
world, not much did. Girls were a total mystery, teachers were a surprise, and most of his classes were a struggle. But basketball… now, that made sense. For Chris, the only thing better than a good pick-up game was drawing comics. Ever since his parents started pushing Chris toward college, he wished he could tell them that being a comic book artist was what he wanted to do someday. He loved comics, loved collecting them, and he loved imagining ways that his own main character, Master Thief, could save the world. But Master Thief couldn’t save Jax. Jax, in fact, was in big trouble and he needed Chris’s help with a real burglary. Jax, you see, had a secret life, too… Ka-thunk-ka-thunkka-thunk. If you’ve got a basketball fan around, that’s a familiar sound at
always thought his observation skills were better than anything else he did, except maybe basketball. Yep, Chris was a good kid. So it came as a huge surprise to everyone when a cop came to algebra class and escorted him to the principal’s office. The whole mess started four days earlier. Jax, Chris’s older brother was the “Golden Boy.” Always likeable, goodhearted, smart, capable, and responsible, Jax had spent the last year at Stanford University on a full scholarship, studying to being a lawyer. The Richards – both lawyers – were proud of him but when Jax came home and announced that he’d quit school, well, it was like World War III had started in the living room. Chris had always looked up to Jax, and Jax’s behavior didn’t make sense. Then again, in Chris’s
your house. But you’ll silence that sound for a few hours, if you can swap the ball for this book. More than just a basketball novel, “Stealing the Game” is also a mystery, solved by a sharp, smart, funny, and genuinely nice thirteen-yearold. The real Dream Team of authors Kareem AbdulJabbar and Raymond Obstfeld introduce readers to that kind of kid, the one you wish your kids would hang out with - but while Chris Richards is surely the star here, the whole rest of the cast of this story appealed to me, too. And the book’s Big Reveal? It’s perfect. Three points. Another nice thing: there’s a strong girl bballer here as well, which means that this isn’t just a book for boys. Actually, it’s not just a book for kids, either: for anybody, any age, “Stealing the Game” is a win.
‘It’s impossible’ should not be an excuse “It’s impossible!” is an often used excuse for not doing something. However, every invention, discovery, and Bryan a d v a n c e Golden throughout history is Dare to Live the result Without Limits of someone striving for and accomplishing the impossible. When you think something is impossible, you tell yourself you can’t do it, and you won’t. Conversely, if you feel something is possible, you will tell yourself you can do it, and you will. History has repeatedly proven that those that declare impossibility are invariably wrong. So how can you ever claim with
chance of attaining it. Don’t listen to anyone who tells you something is impossible. If you do, you will limit your accomplishments. You must first believe before you can achieve. You should be striving for the impossible. Anything worth achieving takes effort. Although success isn’t easy, neither is struggling. Since life takes effort regardless of what you do, you may as well set your sights high. When you strive for the impossible, you won’t have much competition. Most people are looking for routes requiring little or no effort. They prefer the path of least resistance. Ignore the naysayers. Listening to those who profess to know that which is possible and impossible have nothing to offer you. Listen-
certainty to know what is and isn’t possible? Or how can anyone who is offering you advice as to what is impossible know? You are limited by your thinking, not by what you know or what you have. While you are convincing yourself of all the reasons something is impossible, there are people accomplishing the very same thing. Conversely, while you are making progress toward a goal, there are those who have already convinced themselves it’s not possible. Your perspective as to what is possible is based on your knowledge and experience. Impossibility is a state of mind, not an absolute. The only things you know are obtainable are those you have already accomplished. When you don’t strive for a goal, you have no
ing to them inhibits any progress you would have made. Often these people assert that their claims of impossibility are merely realistic. They will tell you that they are only looking out for your best interests and don’t want to see you get hurt. Although they may be well intentioned, you have nothing to gain by abandoning your dreams based on someone else’s opinion. Throughout history, if people only attempted that which is accepted to be possible, we would still be living in caves in the Stone Age. Take inspiration from the long list of innovators who have consistently achieved the impossible. Look to those who are where you want to be.
Study their approach. Learn from their experiences of how they achieved their goals. People who have strived for, and achieved the impossible are a great inspiration. Success isn’t easy, but it’s worth the effort. Loftier goals are more difficult to attain than their ordinary counterparts. However, once achieved, the sense of satisfaction is awesome. How much you get out of life is directly connected to how much you put in. Dream big. Break free of any self-imposed or externally imposed limitations. Anything you can conceive and believe is possible. Conversely, impossibility exists if you believe it does. It is exclusively your outlook which

SAN FRANCISCO — Facebook’s Messenger app is evolving into a multitasking tool equipped to send an animated fist bump to a friend at one moment and then get a little business done in the next. In an effort to pull off the transformation, Facebook Inc. is opening Messenger so outside programmers can build features tailored for the service. By the end of April, Messenger will also be adding the ability to display store receipts and shipping information to help consumers keep track of their interactions with merchants and other businesses. The push to diversify Messenger addresses a potential threat to Facebook’s ubiquitous social network posed by a variety of mobile messaging maps offering more intimate and direct ways to connect with friends. Younger people, in par-
ticular, are increasingly using a wide range of mobile messaging apps to communicate while spending less time broadcasting their activities on Facebook’s more expansive social network. The list of apps pulling people away from Facebook includes Snapchat, KakaoTalk, Kik, Line, Secret, Tango, Viber, and Whisper. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg touted the Messenger expansion Wednesday to about 2,000 app developers at the opening of a two-day conference in San Francisco. “We have been building Messenger into a service to express beyond text,� Zuckerberg said. He promised even more features will be rolling out the months ahead. Since Messenger’s introduction four years ago, Facebook already has added the ability to attach video, share videos, swap stickers, make phone calls and send money.

WASHINGTON — The Department of Energy is reviving a vehicle loan program it pledged to retool after criticism it funded flops and wasted taxpayer money. The department announced Thursday it has reached a conditional, $259 million loan agreement with aluminum manufacturer Alcoa. The money will be used to fund an expansion of an Alcoa, Tennessee, facility
that manufactures highstrength aluminum used in fuel-efficient cars. The loan is the first issued from the department’s Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing Program in four years, and comes a year after Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz had promised to revamp the program. Moniz said Thursday the program could play an important role by “helping to finance expanded domestic manufacturing of fuelefficient technologies.�

Republicans have been sharply critical of the program and two other Energy Department loan programs after some high profile failures. Solar company Solyndra filed for bankruptcy in 2011 after receiving a $535 million loan guarantee. Fisker Automative, a manufacturer of electronic cars, received $192 million in department loans before it filed for bankruptcy in 2013. The department said it lost $139 million on the Fisker loan agreement. Energy officials have maintained the loan programs, funded by the 2009 stimulus, are largely
successful and on track to pay the government back with interest in the future. Last year, Moniz said the department would make changes to the vehicle loan program, promising to be more responsive to applicants and include parts and component manufacturers — like Alcoa — in the program. Alcoa Chairman and CEO Klaus Kleinfeld said the loan program could “encourage a greater shift to aluminum intensive vehicles that are safer, lighter and more fuelefficient.� The company expects the loan to help it create 200 permanent, full-time jobs.

ling Messenger’s expansion and also prompted Zuckerberg to spend $22 billion last year to buy WhatsApp, another mobile messaging service that has more than 700 million users. A large segment of WhatsApp’s audience is located in less affluent countries outside the U.S. and western Europe, making it more likely that it won’t be adding as many new tools as Messenger has, said David Marcus, who oversees Facebook’s messaging products. Most Messenger apps are installed on iPhones and top-of-the-line Android phones, which provide the processing power needed to handle a range of multipurpose tools. Analysts widely expect Facebook to begin showing ads with Messenger as people spend more time in the app to do different things, though the Menlo Park, California, company hasn’t revealed plans to turn the app into a marketing vehicle.

ger already has more than 600 million users, Zuckerberg said. Facebook’s social network is more than twice as large with about 1.4 billion users. The social network remains the foundation for one of the Internet’s most successful businesses. Facebook’s revenue last year surged 58 percent to $12.5 billion, a performance that has enabled the company’s stock price to more than double from its initial public offering price of $38 in 2012. The shares hit a record high of $86.07 earlier this week, though they dropped $2.39 to close at $82.92 Wednesday amid a broad market downturn. The growing popularity of mobile messaging, though, could result in less time spent on social networks, a shift that would give Facebook fewer opportunities to learn about its users’ interests and show the digital ads that make most of the company’s money.

Good manners are extinct among daughters’ friends DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have two daughters whom we have taught to use good manners. We are proud that they always remember to use their “pleases” and “thank yous” and many people have commented how polite they are. My problem is the majority of their friends have little to no manners at all. They never thank me Abigail when we carVan Buren pool places or take them out for lunch Dear Abby or dinner. I rarely hear “yes, please” when I offer food or beverages at my home. Even my daughters say it at home! Should I correct their behavior by asking them “What’s the magic word?” Should I tell them I want them to use their manners when they are with me? Should I speak to the parents about it? Or am I expecting too much? -- MANNERS MAVEN DEAR MANNERS MAVEN: I’m sorry you didn’t mention how old your daughters’ friends
are, but if they are over the age of 10, I recommend against asking, “What’s the magic word?” It would be more diplomatic to talk to the girls privately and convey your message. If you prefer they use better manners in your home, it is your right to say that to them. However, if you call the parents, the parents may think you are criticizing their parenting skills (and they wouldn’t be wrong). As to whether you are expecting too much, frankly, you may be. Sadly, adults who never learned good manners themselves can’t pass them on to their children. DEAR ABBY: About a year ago, I loaned a small amount of money to a close friend I have known since childhood. She promised to pay me back, but has yet to do so. I wasn’t too concerned because it was a minimal amount, but a few months ago she asked to borrow a larger amount. Again, I didn’t hesitate to help her out because she has been there for me several times in the past in important ways -although they weren’t financial. Because the recent loan was a large one, I would like to be repaid. How do I tactfully ask her for
the money without seeming petty or like I’m nagging? (I don’t like confrontation.) And is it too late to ask that the previous smaller amount be included as well? -- FRIEND, NOT AN ATM DEAR FRIEND: You don’t have to be confrontational, and I wouldn’t advise it anyway. In light of the fact that your friend has made no effort to repay the first loan for an entire year, it would be neither pushy nor nagging to ASK when she intends to start. If she can’t come up with the entire amount, perhaps she can repay a little each month. However, if she can’t/won’t start paying you back, you may have to accept that you won’t be getting any of your money. In the future, you should not lend anyone money without first getting a signed note stating that the money is owed to you and when it will be repaid. That way, if necessary, you can take the matter to court and have a leg to stand on when you get there. 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). There’s great pleasure in finding out something no one else knows about or, even better, in seeing what’s funny in the situation before anyone else does. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you travel, you prefer to eat at the restaurant that is popular with the locals instead of dining at your favorite chain. There’s something intangible gained from getting a taste of other people’s daily life. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If you’re having a hard time getting comfortable in one place, move and try again. Being able to enjoy yourself in one circumstance will make it easier for you to find enjoyment in another. CANCER (June 22-July 22). What do you think would happen if you volunteered to give a presentation? You would establish yourself as an expert to more people than you know. This and other unexpected rewards are favored to occur. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
gain wisdom by talking to people you don’t know well. It takes courage to even approach, so regardless of how the conversation goes, you can’t lose for trying. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Procrastination gets a bad reputation, but sometimes it’s the best answer to the problem. Today procrastination will help you manage life -- it will keep everything from happening at once. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Each conversation is a chance for you to understand someone better, or to understand people in general better. That’s why careful listening is a gift you give to yourself while you’re giving it to others. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You believe everyone should feel free to speak his or her mind, heart and beliefs -- you just don’t want to hear it all. You have a right to your privacy and tranquility, and you’ll guard that now. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). The thing that touches you will also heal you. If it moves you to laugher, the laughter will be like a massage of your insides. And if it moves you to tears, the tears will wash your soul. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Gossip happens when people’s personal lives aren’t fulfilling enough. Avoid, avoid, avoid! If you feel yourself being pulled in, ask yourself what you might do to add excitement to your hours. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may not have a teacher now, but self-directed learning suits your current mindset even better than the structure of a class. You’ll learn from books and interviews and from diving in and doing it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may feel ambivalent, and that is a sign that you need more information before you can move forward with confidence. Be honest about the way you’re using time. It can be a tool, or it can be a crutch.

7th-seed Dayton beats Louisville BY PAT EATON-ROBB AP Sports Writer
ALBANY, N.Y. — Dayton and coach Jim Jabir have a new best day. Andrea Hoover scored 26 points and the seventh-seeded Flyers (28-6) continued their improbable run in the NCAA Tournament with an 82-66 win over third-seeded Louisville in the regional semifinals on Saturday. Amber Deane added 15 points and Jodie CornelieSigmundova had 12 points, 11 rebounds and four blocked shots for the Flyers, who won for the 11th time in their last 12 games. Dayton, which beat No. 2 seed Kentucky in the second round, became just the fourth
No. 7 seed to advance to a regional final since the field expanded to 64 teams in 1994, and the first since Mississippi in 2007. “I thought the Kentucky game was the best day,” Jabir said. “And now I think this is the best day and not just because it’s a trip to the Elite Eight. I think we rose to an occasion.” Dayton led by a point at halftime. But a 3-pointer from Deane capped an 11-2 run early in the second half that pushed the lead to double digits, and the Flyers never trailed after intermission. Myisha Hines-Allen scored all 14 of her points in the second half to lead Louisville (27-7).
Dayton will face No. 1 UConn, which routed Texas 10554, on Monday night. The Flyers shot 51 percent from the floor and made 26 of their 30 free throws. Hoover was 15 of 15 from the line, becoming the first player with a minimum of 12 attempts to shoot 100 percent from the line. Coach Jim Jabir ran toward the stands after the final horn sounded, giving praise to the Dayton fans, one of whom shouted “Who else from Kentucky can we beat,” as the final seconds wound down. “As the buzzer went off, I couldn’t find enough people to hug,” Hoover said. “We’ve been working so hard for these goals, and now our pro-
gram is at new levels.” The Flyers made 11 3-pointers against the Wildcats. They were just 2 of 10 from behind the arc in this one, but outscored the Cardinals 42-34 in the paint. Louisville was just 1 of 15 from 3-point range and shot just 31.5 percent for the game. Jude Schimmel, the Cardinals’ senior floor leader, hit just four of her 23 shots and finished with 11 points. Hines-Allen picked up two fouls in the game’s first two minutes and sat until intermission. She picked up her fourth foul with more than 8 minutes left and the Cardinals trailing just 58-53.

Bautista hits 2-run double for Blue Jays BY JEFF ODOM Associated Press
DUNEDIN, Fla. — Jose Bautista hit a two-run double for the split-squad Toronto Blue Jays in a 5-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Saturday. Bautista doubled to the left-center field gap off starter Alex Wood in the third inning, scoring Jose Reyes and Russell Martin. Bautista, a five-time All-Star, is batting .324 with five home runs and 12 RBIs in 14 exhibition games. Wood gave up three runs on six hits in six innings. The left-hander also walked one and struck out two. “He got himself in a couple jams. It was nice to see that he had to get out of those jams, working through those things, because sometimes you go 1-2-3, 1-2-3 every single time,” Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “It’s a little different. You don’t get the adrenaline, the juices flowing.” “Today, he faced a really, really good, right-handed, dominant lineup and he did great,” he said. Pitching for the first time since sustaining a minor ankle injury last Sunday, Blue Jays starter Marco Estrada allowed an RBI single by Phil Goselin in the second. Estrada yielded five hits and struck out three in three innings. Jace Peterson hit a two-run double for the Braves. Starting time Blue Jays: Estrada, who hadn’t faced hitters since March 15, said it took some time getting used to being on the mound. “I’ll be honest, I felt a little weird being out there again,” Estrada said. “Just haven’t seen a hitter in a couple weeks almost, but overall arm-wise, I felt really good. Timing was a little off. I rushed a few pitches that I left up. ... But other than that, I felt pretty good.” Trainer’s Room Blue Jays: OF Michael Saunders (torn meniscus) should begin running in the next couple days. He is expected to start the season on the disabled list. ... LHP Johan Santana (shoulder) has been progressing well as he continues to play catch, but isn’t expected to begin throwing off a mound until at least mid-April. The two-time AL Cy Young Award winner in camp on a minor league contract and has an April 28 opt-out clause. Well wishes Toronto manager John Gibbons praised pitcher Kyle Drabek, who was claimed off waivers by the White Sox on Friday. The righty was the centerpiece of a 2009 blockbuster trade that sent twotime Cy Young Award winner Roy Halladay to Philadelphia, but he never panned out with the Blue Jays. In five seasons, Drabek was a combined 8-15 with a 5.27 ERA in 39 games. “Good for him,” Gibbons said. “We would have loved to have kept him, but you know what, he gets another big league opportunity and we’re all pulling for him. He’s a great guy. He’s been through a lot.”

Wisconsin tops ’Zona for Final 4 berth BY BETH HARRIS AP Sports Writer
LOS ANGELES — Frank Kaminsky and the Wisconsin Badgers hung on to make the Final Four again. “Frank the Tank” scored 29 points, Sam Dekker added his second straight career high of 27 and the West Regional’s top seed beat No. 2 Arizona 85-78 on Saturday to reach consecutive Final Fours for
the first time in school history. The Badgers (35-3) denied the Wildcats (34-4) a Final Four berth for the second straight year, having beaten them by one point in overtime in Anaheim a year ago when their seeds were reversed. Wisconsin and 67-year-old coach Bo Ryan head to Indianapolis next week hoping for another shot at undefeated
and top-seeded Kentucky, which beat the Badgers by one point in the national semifinals last year. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Brandon Ashley scored 17 points each for the Wildcats, who once again failed to deliver a first-time Final Four appearance for coach Sean Miller. T.J. McConnell added 14 points in his last college game and Kaleb Tarczewski
and Gabe York had 11 each. Just like a year ago, Kaminsky came up big for the Badgers. He sidestepped and slithered, pivoted and deked in eluding the Wildcats’ lockdown defense. Arizona tossed its biggest bodies on the 7-footer and he still found ways to score inside and out. The Badgers hit 10 of 12 Please see FINAL | 11A
Survived: No. 1 Kentucky holds off Notre Dame BY TOM WITHERS AP Sports Writer
CLEVELAND — Pushed to the brink, Kentucky’s still perfect and still playing. Andrew Harrison made two free throws with six seconds remaining, and the topseeded Wildcats kept their unbeaten season and national title hopes intact with a 68-66 win over Notre Dame on Saturday night in the Midwest Regional final. The Wildcats (38-0) ad-
vanced to the Final Four in Indianapolis next week, where they will meet Wisconsin. It took everything Kentucky had to hold off the Fighting Irish (32-6), who came within seconds of shocking the tournament’s overwhelming favorite. Notre Dame, which has a history of stunning upsets in football and basketball, wasn’t done until Jerian Grant’s double-clutch 3-pointer from the left corner was long.
Kentucky’s bench stormed the floor and the Wildcats, who only had one other twopoint game this season, celebrated knowing they had ducked a major challenge and are now just two wins from becoming the first team to go undefeated since Indiana in 1976. “We didn’t play very well and Notre Dame, I thought, controlled the whole thing, but we made the plays,” Kentucky coach John Calipari
said. “We figured out a way to win it. We’re just saying one more game, play our best. We’ve had other tests, but we have a will to win.” Karl-Anthony Towns scored 25 to lead Kentucky, which trailed for most of the second half. Zach Auguste scored 20, Steve Vasturia 16 and Grant 15 for the third-seeded Fighting Irish, playing in their first Please see SURVIVED | 11A
UConn steamrolls past Texas, reaches regional final BY DOUG FEINBERG AP Basketball Writer
ALBANY, N.Y. — Geno Auriemma reached another milestone in record fashion. The Hall of Famer became the second coach to achieve 100 victories in the NCAA Tournament as his UConn Huskies pulled off a record rout of Texas, 105-54, on Saturday in the Sweet 16. Auriemma joined Pat Summitt, who finished with 112 victories in her career, as the only two coaches in men’s or
women’s basketball to reach that milestone. “That’s lots of wins, 100 wins in the NCAA tournament,” Auriemma said. “Some people don’t get to play in the NCAA tournament ever or play a couple games. We’ve been pretty fortunate. We didn’t win anything in the NCAA in our first couple years.” The Huskies stand three victories away from a third straight national championship and 10th overall. UConn
will face Dayton in the regional finals after the seventhseeded Flyers upset Louisville 82-66. Breanna Stewart was a key reason why the Huskies set the NCAA record for margin of victory in the regionals and beyond. The junior star had 31 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists. “(Today) was a lot of fun,” Stewart said. “Right from the start shots were going in and we were being aggressive. ... Texas has a big presence
inside, big post players. We knew if we got them moving a little bit, we could get any shot we wanted.” The Huskies shot a blistering 56 percent from the field and became the eighth team to put up more than 100 points in the regionals. “Like I said to the coaching staff at Texas, when you shoot the ball as well as we did, we’re a really hard team to play against,” Auriemma said.

Scoreboard
7TH SEED CONTINUED FROM 10A
With Hines-Allen out of the game, the Flyers went on a 10-0 run to push the lead to 15 points. “It really hurt us,” Hines-Allen said of the fouls before breaking down in tears on the podium. “It was a selfish part of me, getting two early fouls.” Dayton capitalized on Hines-Allen’s early foul trouble by going inside to Jodie Cornelie-Sigmundova. The 6-foot-4 center from France had eight first-half points, and Dayton used a 13-0 Dayton run to turn an 18-11 deficit into 24-18 lead. But the Flyers also committed 14 first-half turnovers. They had just five in the second half. “What I love so much about our team is that we never look at the scoreboard,” said Deane. “We just play and play as
Baseball hard as we can.”
Tip ins Dayton: The Flyers improved to 111-10 over their last 121 games when scoring more than 70 points, and 24-1 this season. Dayton has hit at least one three-point shot in 448 consecutive games. Louisville: Cardinals coach Jeff Walz falls to 20-7 in NCAA Touranment games. His winning percentage among active coaches coming in was second only to UConn’s Geno Auriemma. This was just the third time in 16 games that Louisville has lost an NCAA Tournament game when coming in as a higher seed.
Up next Dayton plays UConn in Monday night’s regional final.
UCONN CONTINUED FROM 10A
UConn (35-1) led 2619 midway through the first half before blowing the game open with a 44-9 run spanning the half. The burst started with 13 straight points by the Huskies. UConn led 52-24 at the half and scored 18 points in the first 3:30 of the second half to finish off the run. Stewart surpassed her previous NCAA Tournament best of 29 points before leaving the game for good with just over 9 minutes left. Moriah Jefferson added a careerhigh 25 points — hitting 10 of her 12 shots — for the Huskies, who have advanced to the regional final for 10 straight seasons. They have been to the Final Four a record
seven straight years. “I can’t say enough about these two guys,” Auriemma said. “It seemed like they were on a whole different level than anyone else who was playing. You almost come to expect that from Stewie at this time of year. To see Moriah do what she did today, she’s come a long way in two years. I couldn’t be happier for these guys.” Texas was making its first trip to the Sweet 16 since 2004. Coach Karen Aston has a young roster and the Longhorns may not have to wait long to get back. Ariel Atkins scored 11 to lead Texas (24-11). The Longhorns tried to slow the Huskies down with their big lineup of 6-foot-7 Imani Stafford-McGee and 6-5 Kelsey Lang.
FINAL CONTINUED FROM 10A
3-point attempts in the second half, outscoring the Wildcats 30-3 from long range. Arizona pressured full court in the last 4 minutes, making for some perilous possessions by the Badgers as they darted and passed trying to safely get the ball down court. A long inbounds pass by Wisconsin was nearly intercepted before Josh Gasser grabbed it, got fouled and made both free throws to keep the Badgers ahead by 10 points. The Wildcats twice got within five points
in the last 2½ minutes, but both times Dekker dashed their hopes with arcing 3-pointers. Kaminsky led the Badgers’ offensive outburst to start the second half. He scored eight of their 14 points, working their inside-outside game to perfection in finding Dekker for a 3-pointer to put Wisconsin ahead 44-36. Hollis-Jefferson and Tarczewski picked up their third fouls and freshman Stanley Johnson left the game to have his contact lens adjusted, all in quick succession. It didn’t faze the Wildcats, who went on a 10-3 run to close to 47-46.
SURVIVED CONTINUED FROM 10A
regional final in 36 years. There was no doubt Notre Dame belonged. The ACC tournament champions controlled the tempo and weren’t intimated by the Wildcats and their collection
of high school All-Americans and soon-to-be NBA millionaires. Calipari insisted on Friday his team was not perfect, only unbeaten and that any team left in the tournament was capable of toppling the top Cats.

Collector displays over 200 sci-fi movie items BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com
Proving the force is definitely with him, Mike Bouchillon has amassed a collection of over 200 pieces of “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” “Lost in Space” and other sci-fi film and television show memorabilia. Guests will feel as if they’ve entered the “Final Frontier” as they step through the doors of his north Corinth home. A few steps up a narrow staircase, opens the door to many museum-quality science-fiction exhibits that take up the entire second-floor room. Complete with a fullscale, talking 6-foot tall model of the B-9 “Lost in Space” robot, an over5-foot replica of the USS Starship Enterprise from “Star Trek,” autographed photos, posters, collectible toys and action figures, the 55-year-old has turned an intriguing hobby into a remarkable treasury. “I’ve worked on it on and off for the past seven years and am not quite there yet,” said Bouchillon, as he surveyed the progress of his whimsical getaway, complete with a media area where he can watch old movies and TV shows. “I don’t know if it will ever be finished really, but maybe some day.” Nestled in glass display cases, featured items include a rubber gun casting, ’60s hero-props, a fancy spaceship control panel and an area painted to look like a recruiting booth. Extra lighting highlights the exhibits. “Star Trek” is well represented with autographed photos of the crew and replica hand held gadgets used in the films. A John Masefield quote stenciled on the wall above the Enterprise reads, “All I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by.” “Lost in Space” has two full cabinets and includes everything from publications, autographed photos and toys to items used in filming the 1960s TV show. The “Star Wars” area features a model of the X-wing Starfighter, which actually lights up, and a souvenir program from the first movie, which came out in 1977. There are areas dedicated to “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “UFO,” “Starship Troopers” and other films, plus a cabinet dedicated to all things sci-fi from movies in the 1950s. Acquired through eBay and other online markets, the avid collector said he discovered items he never even knew existed. A Crossroads area resident for over 20 years, the 1977 Caldwell High School (in Columbus) graduate’s love of science fiction began at an early age. “It all started when I first watched the ‘Lost in Space’ pilot when I was in the first grade back in 1965,” he recalled. “I saw ‘Star Wars’ eight times when it first came out the summer I graduated from high school (1977), but I began collecting items after seeing the original ‘Star Trek’ in high school.” “I attended a convention once and had the opportunity to meet (‘Star Trek’s Capt. Kirk) William Shatner. “I had practiced beforehand what I was going to say, but froze up when it was finally my turn,” he added. “They rush you along so fast that it’s kind of a blur.” The Pontotoc-born collector deemed the “Lost in Space” robot and “Star Trek” Enterprise as being his favorite two items. “I am really proud of

No sci-fi collection is complete without something from “Star Wars,” and Mike Bouchillon’s collection doesn’t disappoint. It includes replica items used in filming, movie posters and models of both characters and spaceships. the Enterprise,” he said. A purist at heart, the sci-fi fan said he doesn’t approve of digitally remastered scenes. “I shouldn’t have asked for more,” he revealed. “Just learned to embrace the original.”
A member of the U.S. Air Force for four years, Bouchillion currently serves as a window clerk at the Corinth Post Office. The sci-fi enthusiast credits all of his co-workers at the post office for his successful upstairs
“man cave” because it took many strong backs and arms to carry all the heavy cabinet displays up the steps. “Had they not pitched in, the project would never have happened,” he said.

NBC adds Craig T. Nelson to ‘Coach’ revival roster Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Craig T. Nelson is getting back in the coaching game for NBC. The network said that it has ordered 13 episodes of a sequel to the 1989-97 ABC sitcom “Coach” that starred Nelson as Hayden Fox, the head coach of a college football team. In the new series, nearly 20 years have passed and Fox has retired from coaching, NBC said Thursday. That’s until he’s called in to serve as assistant coach to his grown son, the new head

The series originally aired on ABC from 1989-1997. coach at an Ivy League school in Pennsylvania. Barry Kemp, who created the previous series, will write and serve as executive producer. Details on other casting for the sequel or an air date weren’t announced. Nelson hasn’t been away from TV. He costarred in “Parenthood,” which just wrapped a sixyear run on NBC.
NEW YORK — Producers of the popular British period drama “Downton Abbey” on Thursday confirmed it will end after its sixth season, scheduled to air in the United States in early 2016. The series, which airs earlier in the U.K., will have its finale on Christmas Day 2015. “Our feeling is that it’s good to quit while you’re ahead,” executive producer Gareth Neame said. “We feel the show is in incredibly strong shape, the scripts that we’re working on for the upcoming season are fantastic and the show is so popular globally. But the danger with this sort of thing is to let it go on forever.” He said the decision to wrap was made by him and Julian Fellowes, who created the series and has written every episode, in conjunction with the cast. He said there
are no plans in place for a rumored “Downton Abbey” feature film or a series spinoff. The acclaimed, beloved and awards-showered drama has tracked the fates of the aristocratic Crawley clan and its servants amid the social upheavals of pre-World War I Britain into the 1920s, as the characters of upper and lower classes cope with their rapidly changing world. Stars include Hugh Bonneville, Jim Carter, Michelle Dockery, Elizabeth McGovern and Maggie Smith. The series premiered in the U.K. in 2010 and on PBS’ “Masterpiece” anthology in early 2011, inspired in part by the 2001 Robert Altman film “Gosford Park” (written by Fellowes) and presented as a variation on the British classic “Upstairs, Downstairs.” “When we set out to do this in the first place,”
Neame said, “we thought we would have a good success in the U.K. and that very traditional outlets for British content globally would be there.” But almost instantly “Downton Abbey” took on a life of its own. “We did not know we would be in 250 territories worldwide,” Neame said. “We didn’t know we would be one of the biggest shows on American television.” In the U.K., it became the highest-rated drama of the past decade, with an average of 11 million viewers over its five seasons. Season 5, which concluded in the U.S. this month, drew an average audience of 12.9 million viewers. “Masterpiece” executive producer Rebecca Eaton called the series “a gift from the television gods.” She said it coincided with the 2009 rebranding of “Masterpiece,”
which, among many changes, led to dropping “Theatre” from its title. “And along came ‘Sherlock’ and ‘Downton’ in the same season and transformed us in many ways: drawing a giant audience, a new audience; helping pull in an underwriter; solidify our position with stations and donors to the station,” Eaton said. “Then we created the Masterpiece Trust. So, a complete game-changer.” “Downton” also benefited from the shift in how TV is consumed, including binge viewing, and the growth of social media, which turned watching telecasts into group experiences, she said. The decision to call it quits was reached through a process of conversations. But having now made the decision official, Neame said, meant “a very emotional day for all of the people involved in the show.”
Schwarzenegger’s back for ‘Terminator: Genisys’ BY LINDSEY BAHR AP Film Writer
LOS ANGELES — As promised, the Terminator and the man who originated the steely machine — Arnold Schwarzenegger — are back this summer for another go in “Terminator: Genisys,” and Paramount Pictures, eager for a blockbuster, has already fired up a machine of its own — the publicity kind. With four films, over $1 billion in box office receipts, and a jumbled time-travel mythology, “Terminator: Genisys”
8th Annual Mississippi State Cook-Off
Held in conjunction with
Saturday, April 11 Historic Corinth Depot 221 North Fillmore St. Downtown Corinth, MS.
is taking the elements of James Cameron’s 1984 original and twisting them a bit to create an entirely new timeline. Getting a jump on a summer that’s chock full of franchise fare, including continuations of “The Avengers” and “Jurassic Park,” Paramount has undertaken an early publicity campaign, including the recent showcasing of a few minutes of action-packed footage from “Terminator: Genisys.” Then, Schwarzenegger and other key cast members attended a press event earlier this week on the Paramount lot — all to help generate early buzz for what the studio hopes will be a bona fide blockbuster. Paramount is on a major push to restore its once robust production prowess. Although its franchises, including “Transformers” and “Mission: Impossible,” have been successful, the studio has lagged behind its Hollywood counterparts in recent years. Seated on a massive couch next to his three new co-stars, Schwarzenegger seemed glad to be back. “I watched all the movies again to really get up to speed with the character,” he said. The film opens in a familiar spot — 2029, when the war against the all-
powerful artificial intelligence system Skynet is raging. Resistance leader John Connor (Jason Clarke) once again sends soldier Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) back to 1984 to save his mother, Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke), from being killed by a Terminator. But this time, things are different. Sarah has her own protector: An aged Terminator who has raised her since childhood. “We’re really harking back to James Cameron’s original characters that were in one and two and we’re taking it from there,” said Emilia Clarke. The footage — basically a trailer on steroids — takes what fans have already seen in the first trailer, which debuted in December, and gives everything a bit more context, like what happens when Kyle pops up in 1984 and why that school bus starts cartwheeling on the Golden Gate Bridge, in addition to one massive secret. The project on the whole is an intensely hush-hush endeavor, but director Alan Taylor (“Thor: The Dark World”) has said many times that, at its heart, the film is about man’s relationship to technology in the modern age. In 2015, that idea has evolved from when
James Cameron first introduced us to the T-800 31 years ago. “In ’84, this was total science fiction — when machines take over. And now, we’re there,” said Schwarzenegger. “That’s the wild thing about it. When we did this movie, it was kind of almost reality, unlike in 1984 where we thought, ‘Oh well wouldn’t this be a funny world.’ Things have changed.” Jason Clarke jumped in to agree. “Good science fiction is relatable. It mirrors what we’re going through and Cameron set up wonderful, iconic metaphors and characters for us to play with,” he said. “Judgment Day still exists. It just might not be nuclear.” While there are many Terminator die-hards out there waiting, as Courtney says, “to criticize this thing,” when it finally hits theaters on July 1, he believes they’ll be pleasantly surprised. “The beauty of what we’ve done is not only stayed loyal to the original source material but opened it up to a whole new generation,” said Courtney. “I think we’ll succeed in bringing them in.” Paramount and franchise partner Skydance Productions plan two more “Terminator” films in the next few years.
