Supervisors approve tree trimming work

The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors will hire a professional tree trimmer for some needed tree care at court square.

The board on Monday accepted Affordable Tree Service’s quote of $4,500 for trimming work, cleanup and removal of debris for four oak trees as recommended after an examination of the trees by a specialist with the Mississippi State University Extension Service.

Because of safety concerns, the county will also get a quote on removal of the hackberry tree near the Col. Rogers statue, which was not included in the prior evaluation. The tree is observed to have some rot

Legislators set boycott over rebel emblem on state flag

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

Handbell ringers Bobbi Campbell and Cindy Mathis work to prepare music for the upcoming Spring Ring concert, presented by the Corinth Music Club at 11 a.m. on Thursday in the First United Methodist Church Sanctuary.

Corinth Music Club to present handbell choir For the Daily Corinthian

The sanctuary of First United Methodist church will be filled with the sound of bells at 11 a.m. on Thursday, May 4 as the Corinth Music Club oers one more Mid-Morning Concert as a gift to the community.

The handbell choirs of First Baptist Church and First United Methodist Church are presenting a Spring Ring filled with sacred and traditional songs. Music club member Cindy Mathis will lead the program. “Handbell choirs are a treat for the eyes as well as for the ears, because the motions of the bells in the hands of the ringers have a positive visual impact,� said club member Bobbi Campbell. “Those attending will

“Handbell choirs are a treat for the eyes as well as for the ears, because the motions of the bells in the hands of the ringers have a positive visual impact.�

Bobbi Campbell Club member also see the use of hand chimes and mallets during the performance.�

The First United Methodist Handbell Choir, directed by club member Sara Ellington, will perform All Creatures of Our God and King, In the Garden, and I Walked Today Where Jesus Walked.

Cindy Mathis will direct the First Baptist Church Handbell Choir in the performance of My Spirit’s Gonna Shine, Thy

Holy Wings, and I’ll Fly Away. The two handbell choirs will join forces to play Be Thou My Vision.

The concert is open to the public and there is no cost to attend.

After the summer break, Mid-Morning Concerts will resume in September, 2017. The Mid-Morning Concerts are sponsored by the Corinth Music Club, a member of the Mississippi Federation of Music Clubs since 1924.

JACKSON — In part of a sweeping debate about the public display of Confederate symbols across the South, some black legislators in Mississippi say they are boycotting a regional meeting that their own state is hosting this summer, to protest the rebel emblem on the state flag.

The Mississippi Legislative Black Caucus is asking the Southern Legislative Conference to push Mississippi to lose its status as the last state with a flag featuring the Confederate battle emblem — a red field topped by a blue tilted cross dotted by 13 white stars.

All eight of Mississippi’s public universities and several counties and cities, including Biloxi, have stopped flying the flag because of the Confederate emblem.

Most have done it since the June 2015 slayings of nine black worshippers at a church in Charleston, South Carolina.

The man later convicted in the killings was an avowed white supremacist who had posed for photos holding the Confederate battle flag.

South Carolina removed a Confederate battle flag from the statehouse lawn soon after the slayings. New Orleans recently started taking down Confederate statues.

The Mississippi Legislative Black Caucus chairwoman, Democratic Rep. Sonya Williams-Barnes of Gulfport, said Tuesday that the boycott is designed to put pressure on state House Speaker Philip Gunn. Soon after the Charleston shootings, Republican Gunn, who is white, said his Christian faith led him to see the Confederate symbol as “a point of oense that needs to be removedâ€? from the Mississippi flag. But, he has not rounded up the votes to make a change.

Gunn is chairman of the Southern Legislative Conference, with members from 15 states. The group holds its annual meeting July 29-Aug. 2 in Biloxi.

Gunn said in a statement Tuesday that SLC “is a well-respected organization� and the meeting will “showcase the positives of Mississippi.� “It brings a great amount of economic benefit to the state, attracting nearly 1,000 people,� Gunn said. “This event is a good opportunity to stand with me,

“This event is a good opportunity to stand with me, someone who has not wavered in my support of changing the flag, to promote all that is good about our great state.�

Philip Gunn House Speaker someone who has not wavered in my support of changing the flag, to promote all that is good about our great state.�

Critics say the Confederate symbol is a divisive reminder of slavery and segregation in a state with a 38 percent black population, but supporters say it represents history that should not be forgotten.

Mississippi has used the same flag since 1894, and voters chose to keep it in a 2001 election.

Williams-Barnes told The Associated Press that the Black Caucus has not united around a new design proposal. “What we’re really wanting is a flag that charts a dierent future for our state, that charts a dierent future for our children and that is about a vision that unites people in the state with each other as well as unites Mississippi with other states in the nation,â€? she said.

The executive director of the Council of State Governments’ Southern Legislative Conference, based in Atlanta, was traveling and did not immediately return a message.

During the legislative session that ended in March, several bills proposed redesigning the flag and some others proposed financial punishment for universities that have stopped flying it. All died because Gunn and other leaders said there was no consensus among lawmakers to either reject or protect the flag.

Fifty-one of Mississippi’s 174 state lawmakers are black, and 50 of them are in the Black Caucus. Williams-Barnes said a majority of caucus members voted to boycott the regional conference, and about 80 percent are planning to take part in the boycott. She said she will ask black legislators from other states to stay away, as well.

Booneville

Today is Wednesday, May 3, the 123rd day of 2017. There are 242 days left in the year.

Burglary charges filed against man BOONEVILLE — William Catlin Bingham of Booneville has been charged with burglary of an auto. Bond was set at $5,000 by Judge Angela Pounds.

Sheriff Randy Tolar reports some of the items stolen were recovered from Bingham’s vehicle at the time of the arrest.

He was being held at the Prentiss County Jail on other felony and misdemeanor charges at the time of the arrest.

Today’s Highlight in History On May 3, 1952, the Kentucky Derby was televised nationally for the first time on CBS; the winner was Hill Gail, ridden by Eddie Arcaro.

On this date In 1802, Washington, D.C., was incorporated as a city.

In 1937, Margaret Mitchell won the Pulitzer Prize for her novel, “Gone with the Wind.”

In 1945, during World War II, Allied forces recaptured Rangoon (Yangon) from the Japanese.

In 1986, in NASA’s first post-Challenger launch, an unmanned Delta rocket lost power in its main engine shortly after liftoff, forcing safety officers to destroy it by remote control.

Five years ago: U.S. officials published online a selection of letters from Osama bin Laden’s last hideaway; the documents portrayed a network that was weak, inept and under siege — and its leader seemingly near wit’s end about the passing of his global jihad’s supposed glory days.

One year ago: In a stunning triumph for a political outsider, Donald Trump all but clinched the Republican presidential nomination with a resounding victory in Indiana that knocked rival Ted Cruz out of the race.

Tippah County Course teaches financial tips to high school seniors TIPPAH COUNTY — To be in control of finances is a great way to prevent stress.

The Southern-Sentinel reported, a lot of people accumulate a great deal of debt in their late teens and early 20s. The most common way young adults get themselves into debt is by obtaining student loans to help pay for college. There are several other ways to rake up debt, but there are not very many solutions to help get people out of debt.

One Ripley woman has taken on the challenge of educating students on financial situations before it is too late.

Around three years ago, Lisa Settlemires decided to start a financial advisory course for high school seniors in Tippah County. “I actually had the idea for about five years, but it was about three years ago when I finally decided to go forward with it,” says Settlemire. Settlemires says that she believes it is important to address the problem of debt before it is acquired and not afterwards.

“Nobody taught me how to manage student loans. I had to figure it out the hard way,” says Settlemires.

Settlemires has teamed up with some local high schools and teaches a two to three day course where she covers topics such as: student loans, the importance of a savings and checkings account, home ownership, starting a retirement fund and many other helpful financial strategies. “The more we reach out and help, the better it is for everyone. Debt is 10 times harder to fix after the fact,” says Settlemires.

Settlemires talks more of her financial advisory course and says that she believes that this course helps students make better financial decisions in the future. She has even had several students reach out to her for additional help after attending this course. She says, “I’ve had students that have graduated and gone on to college come back and ask questions. Some of them even brought their parents.”

Settlemires has taught her course at Ripley High School and Falkner High School so far.

Pine Grove High School is the next school that Settlemires will visit and she is hopeful that more schools will agree to this course as well. “I don’t mind taking the time and going the extra mile to help people because it is all worth it in the end,” said Settlemires.

Muscle Shoals Man arrested; Drugs, stolen items recovered MUSCLE SHOALS, Ala. — Acting on tips from neighbors and information developed by patrol officers, Muscle Shoals police in conjunction with the Colbert County Drug Task Force arrested one man on drug charges and seized a number of weapons believed to have been stolen.

According to the TimesDaily, Muscle Shoals Police Chief Clint Reck said the investigation resulted in the arrest of Percy Thomas Glover, 60, 403 W. Pasadena Ave., Muscle Shoals. He is charged with four counts of unlawful possession of a controlled substance.

Reports indicate officers found 4 grams of crystal methamphetamine (ICE), prescription pills and marijuana.

Reck said during a search of the garage, officers and drug agents reported finding 15 guns, several guitars and two air conditioners.

He said the air conditioners were stolen and it is believed the guitars were stolen.

The chief said he appreciated the effort of the neighbors for their alertness and contacting police, “and the patrol officers for developing intelligence that allowed us to get enough information to contact the drug task force.”

Corinth, Miss.

Exploiting the presidency The headline in the March 5, 1929 edition of the Chicago Tribune read, “Plain Citizen Coolidge Shuts Desk and Quietly Goes Home.”

Calvin Coolidge would write a newspaper column from Cal Northampton, MassachuThomas setts, for which he presumably was paid a pittance, but Columnist other than that he refused to exploit his notoriety or accomplishments as president for money.

When he left office in 1953, Harry S. Truman and his wife, Bess, repaired to Independence, Missouri, where they lived in a house they had previously shared with her mother.

Truman refused to serve on any corporate boards and rejected other financial opportunities because he said he did not want to diminish the integrity of the presidency.

Richard Nixon departed from that standard, charging $1 million for an interview with David Frost. The selling of the presidency, to paraphrase the title of a 1968 book by Joe McGinniss, had begun.

Every president since Nixon has used the office as a stepping stone to great wealth.

Ronald Reagan was paid $2 million for two speeches in Japan. George W. Bush has made an estimated 200 speeches since leaving office, some to benefit wounded warriors and others to benefit himself.

Then there are the Clintons, who took postpresidential moneymaking to new heights (or depths, depending on your perspective).

Now comes former President Obama, who is receiving $400,000 for a one-hour speech at a conference run by Cantor Fitzgerald, a Wall Street firm. Like his Nobel Peace Prize, which was awarded soon after he took office with no accomplishments to warrant it, Obama is getting the money primarily for his celebrity, not his deeds.

Since 1958, Congress has generously provided for our ex-presidents, including transition money for office and staff expenses, good for seven months after leaving office, as well as Secret Service protection for life. To Carter’s credit, however, of all the modern presidents, he cashes in the least, if he can be said to at all. He rarely accepts speaking fees, and when he does he usually donates the proceeds to his charitable foundation.

As Time magazine noted, “Obama’s annual presidential pension is $205,700,” which is what the other living ex-presidents get. Like the others, Obama will receive subsidies for travel, office staff and supplies, as well as Secret Service protection. Ex-vice presidents also receive pensions after leaving office, though not Secret Service protection.

Michelle Obama also plans to make lucrative appearances on the lecture circuit.

The Truman maxim about not diminishing the integrity of the presidency is long gone.

During his eight years in the White House, President Obama received, in addition to his $400,000 salary, free travel aboard Air Force One, free housing and food, free utilities and a host of other perks that would allow him to save and invest much of that money to take care of himself and his wife after leaving office.

There will be book deals to come for both Obamas and more millions paid to them.

As one who occasionally makes paid speeches for far more modest sums, I have no beef over how much anyone can earn from the private sector. My question is if ex-presidents are making millions because they were president, why should the taxpayers continue to pay them?

Congress should consider reducing payments in direct proportion to how much presidents make in “retirement.” With the debt approaching $20 trillion, taxpayers shouldn’t be on the hook for underwriting lifestyles of former presidents that would have outraged Coolidge and Truman and probably most presidents since George Washington.

Like former presidents George W. Bush, Bill Clinton and George H.W. Bush, the Obamas are cashing in. That term was once considered a negative judgment of one’s character. In an era of little shame, it seems to have become a term of endearment.

Prayer for today Loving Father, may I lay hold upon the highest standards of friendship and so be qualified to be a friend. May those who call and lean on me feel secure in my support.

May none ever be ashamed to call me friend.

Grant that those whom I love may keep faith with me. Amen.

A verse to share This is what the LORD says: “Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the LORD. —Jeremiah 17:5

When others talk policy, Holland talks people OXFORD — Years ago, Mississippi Public Broadcasting decided to air a live “town hall” on a topic. Can’t remember what. Twenty or 30 people were to be seated in a studio, taking turns voicing their views. There was a seat open next to Steve Holland. I grabbed it for one reason: I knew he would have something to say, and that if I sat near him I could just nod.

As this year’s session ended, the planter from Plantersville — the one and only Rep. Steve Holland, proud old-school Democrat and prouder funeral director — said he would not seek another term. He’s a young and energetic 61 years of age, but believes a diagnosis of progressive frontotemporal dementia means he should leave the Legislature in 2020.

The House chamber will be a quieter place. But it won’t be a better place.

“Nemesis” is a good word.

No two ways about it, Mississippians, starting about 1990, have increasingly elected “business-minded” Republicans to serve as governors, senators and representatives. Several former

Democrats fled the party in order to avoid being tagged as in step with the far more libCharlie eral national Mitchell party.

Not HolColumnist land. He is no “snowflake,” the term used these days to describe progressives who whine and complain about life’s unfairness.

He’s just “people-minded” in the mold of great populists who focus their thinking and their actions on what legislation means to the proverbial little guy.

In that capacity, his job has been to rankle the leadership in recent years. When they talk about policy, he talks people.

There are many, many Steve Holland stories. Just one that illustrates his passion began about 10 years ago when Holland was nearly as rotund as the rotunda.

He weighed 325 pounds and his obesity was the cause for a roster of other ailments.

Taking his doctors’ advice, Holland paid $17,000 for gastric bypass surgery in

2008 and, after discovering the procedure was not available through the insurance plan for state employees, led a crusade to make it so.

Holland was clear that the surgery was no quick fix.

It took total commitment to become half the man he used to be, but he did it — and he so appreciated the change in the quality of his life he wanted others to have the same option.

Of course, it wasn’t easy to convince his colleagues. Except for his persistence, the topic would have gone away.

Yet Holland wheedled and argued and preached and, in the end, compromised. In 2009, he managed to passage a bill to allow up to 100 state workers — once they exhausted all other options — to have surgery.

Can’t get everything? Take what you can get. But never surrender the point.

In the House and elsewhere, Holland is best known for what could politely be called candor. There’s never any doubt what he thinks about his opponents and there’s never any doubt about where he stands. He’ll shout when shouting is called for (and sometimes when it’s

not) but he’s never meanspirited. He’ll call someone a horse’s rear, but with gentle eloquence (usually).

Holland, in the Legislature since 1985, represents a mostly white, conservative district including much of Tupelo. He’s chaired most major committees during his tenure and was, perhaps, most effective in the heyday of the black-redneck coalition of Democrats led by former Speaker Billy McCoy, who left the Legislature six years ago.

As indicated, legislating is not Holland’s only passion.

He’s a marvelous pianist and a farmer. He’s a true family man and a pre-eminent funeral director, which leads to a memorable statement made years ago: “I gladly charge Republicans double so I can bury Democrats for free.” Was he kidding? Maybe. But maybe not.

Mississippi has never had a greater fan or friend than Steve Holland. He’s earned some time off, but his strident voice of clarity and conviction is not easily replaced.

‘Tax cuts for the rich’ is a lie One of the painful realities of our times is how long a political lie can survive, even after having been disproved years ago, or even generations ago.

A classic example is the phrase “tax cuts for the rich,” which is loudly proclaimed by opponents, whenever there is a proposal to reduce tax rates. The current proposal to reduce federal tax rates has revived this phrase, which was disproved by facts, as far back as the 1920s -- and by now should be called “tax lies for the gullible.”

How is the claim of “tax cuts for the rich” false? Let me count the ways. More important, you can easily check out the facts for yourself with a simple visit to your local public library or, for those more computerminded, on the Internet.

One of the key arguments of those who oppose what they call “tax cuts for the rich” is that the Reagan administration tax cuts led to huge federal government deficits, contrary to “supply side economics” which said that lower tax rates would lead to higher tax revenues.

This reduces the whole issue to a question about facts -- and the hard facts are available in many places, including a local public library or on the Internet.

The hardest of these hard facts is that the revenues collected from federal inThomas come taxes Sowell during every year of the Columnist Reagan administration were higher than the revenues collected from federal income taxes during any year of any previous administration.

How can that be? Because tax RATES and tax REVENUES are two different things. Tax rates and tax revenues can move in either the same direction or in opposite directions, depending on how the economy responds.

But why should you take my word for it that federal income tax revenues were higher than before during the Reagan administration?

Check it out.

Official statistics are available in many places.

The easiest way to find those statistics is to go look at a copy of the annual “Economic Report of the President.” It doesn’t have to be the latest Report under President Trump. It can be a Report from any administration, from the Obama administration all the way

back to the administration of the elder George Bush.

Each annual “Economic Report of the President” has the history of federal revenues and expenditures, going back for decades. And that is just one of the places where you can get this data.

The truth is readily available, if you want it. But, if you are satisfied with political rhetoric, so be it.

Before we turn to the question of “the rich,” let’s first understand the implications of higher income tax revenues after income tax rates were cut during the Reagan administration.

That should have put an end to the talk about how lower tax rates reduce government revenues and therefore tax cuts need to be “paid for” or else there will be rising deficits. There were in fact rising deficits in the 1980s, but that was due to spending that outran even the rising tax revenues.

Congress does the spending, and there is no amount of money that Congress cannot outspend.

As for “the rich,” higher-income taxpayers paid more -- repeat, MORE tax revenues into the federal treasury under the lower tax rates than they had under the previous higher tax rates.

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

That happened not only during the Reagan administration, but also during the Coolidge administration and the Kennedy administration before Reagan, and under the G.W. Bush administration after Reagan.

All these administrations cut tax rates and received higher tax revenues than before.

More than that, “the rich” not only paid higher total tax revenues after the socalled “tax cuts for the rich,” they also paid a higher percentage of all tax revenues afterwards. Data on this can be found in a number of places, including documented sources listed in my monograph titled “‘Trickle Down’ Theory and ‘Tax Cuts for the Rich.’”

As a source more congenial to some, a front-page story in the New York Times on July 9, 2006 -- during the Bush 43 administration -- reported, “An unexpectedly steep rise in tax revenues from corporations and the wealthy is driving down the projected budget deficit this year.” Expectations, of course, are in the eye of the beholder.

Brother Ray: ‘Loved God, preaching, people’

BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

PICKWICK, Tenn. — A legendary Southern Baptist minister passed away last week and he leaves a proud legacy of preaching God’s word for 60 years throughout the MidSouth.

Dr. Ray Newcomb was a pastor at First Baptist Church - Millington, Tenn., for over 33 years and he preached his last sermon at First Baptist Church - Counce, Tenn., where he was a member.

He died April 27 at Baptist Reynolds Hospice in Collierville, Tenn.

Services were held Monday at Oakland Baptist Church in Corinth. A native of Alcorn County, the 77-year pastor was buried in Holly Cemetery.

Newcomb moved to the Pickwick Lake area after he retired from the Millington church in 2009.

His late wife Carolyn was fighting cancer and he moved with her to the lake

Dr. Ray Newcomb area, where they built their dream home. They were married for 52 years and have one son, Brent Newcomb, of Dallas, Texas.

In a 2014 interview with Pickwick Profiles/ Daily Corinthian, Newcomb said his wife died not long after they built their Pickwick home, but he said her legacy lived through his mission to provide a weekend retreat for Baptist pastors. He

proudly showed off his bass boat, a gift from the Millington congregation when he retired.

He became a Christian at Holly Baptist Church in Alcorn County in 1952 and was ordained to preach at South Corinth Baptist in 1959. Newcomb’s ministry began at Tishomingo Chapel Baptist Church in 1959. He served as pastor at North Corinth Baptist Church for several years before moving to First Baptist in Millington, Tenn., in 1976.

He once said he wanted to be remembered as someone who “loved God, loved preaching the Word, and loved people.”

A love for spreading the gospel was evident if anyone spent any time around him or listened to him preach. He served as interim pastor for many churches during his retirement years.

While he was pastor at Millington, Tenn., the church was always among

the state’s leaders in baptisms. He urged his congregation to witness to others and was constantly trying to convert new believers.

His longest term as interim pastor was a 19-month stint at Hopewell Baptist Church in Savannah, Tenn. The minister bonded with the congregation and saw the church increase in attendance during his tenure.

“Bro. Ray had a passion for being a pastor,” said Billy Joe Kennedy, minister of music for 34 years at Hopewell. “He was known for his phrase ‘and the Bible says’ and that was the way he preached.

He loved to see people become new Christians and encouraged his church members to do the same thing.”

His last term as an interim pastor was at Ramer Baptist Church, in Ramer, Tenn., which ended in September. He served at Ramer until the church

hired their new pastor, Bro. Joe Loncar.

“Bro. Ray was very good with his leadership of our church,” said church deacon Johnny Blakely. “He held our church together while we were without a pastor. We were blessed to have him with us for nearly a year.”

Newcomb was a longtime leader in the Tennessee Baptist Convention.

He served as president of the TBA in 1993 and 1994.

He also was president of the Tennessee Baptist Pastor’s Conference in 1988.

He once served as Chairman of the Board at Union University. Newcomb also served as president of the North American Mission Board and as a trustee for several years for the NAMB. Kennedy said his longtime friend will be missed by everyone lucky enough to have known him.

“He was my friend for many years and I do not know anyone who loved

to talk about the Lord more than him,” said Kennedy.

When he was not preaching, Newcomb loved to fish and that is a big reason he moved to Pickwick Lake.

He was known for using many fishing illustrations in his sermons over the years.

Newcomb’s sense of humor was evident when a video of him preaching went viral. He pulled the top off the podium during a message before Tennessee’s Baptist Mission Board and finished his sermon with “Lordy, I did not mean to break the pulpit!”

The Newcomb family requests memorial contributions be made to your local church, missions and/or Gideon’s International.

Government proposes cutting support for meals on wheels Thinking About Health

BY TRUDY LIEBERMAN Rural Health News Service

Federal funding for meals on wheels is on the chopping block. The Trump administration budget blueprint released in March calls for the elimination of two federal block grants: That’s money the federal government gives the states for social welfare programs, and those programs include homedelivered meals and meals served in senior centers.

Most of the nation’s 5,000 meal programs also rely on money from the Older Americans Act passed in 1965 to fund about 35 percent of the cost of the meals they serve.

Those funds are also in jeopardy. The budget blueprint calls for an 18 percent cut to the budget of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), which administers the Act, and programs are bracing for more cuts.

Paul Kraintz who heads the senior nutrition program at Meals on Wheels in Martinez, California, says while his program would lose about $67,000 it now gets from one of the block grants, he’s re-

“People have come to us who are literally starving, or they ask family to bring stuff from the food bank. It’s whatever they can do to get food into their homes.”

Katherine Krause President of VNA Texas ally worried about the potential budget cut at HHS. “If they take 18 percent of that, it’s going to be big.”

Why the attack on meals delivered to the elderly, many of whom are homebound, ill, and unable to cook or shop?

At his March news conference, budget director Mick Mulvaney told reporters, “Meals on Wheels sounds great,” but to take that federal money and give it to the states, and say, ‘Look we want to give you money for programs that don’t work’ – I can’t defend that anymore.” He claimed the program was “just not showing any results.”

Mulvaney didn’t say what he meant by results.

He didn’t have to. His comments were aimed at creating doubt in the

minds of legislators who might look favorably on cutting the Health and Human Services funds for use elsewhere in the federal budget. The potential impact on hungry elders was not a high priority. It didn’t matter that thousands of seniors on waiting lists for food in communities across the country are, in effect, stuck in a bread line.

Several academic studies examining meals on wheels programs have challenged comments like Mulvaney’s regarding the program’s effectiveness.

A recent randomized controlled study funded by the AARP Foundation showed significant differences among seniors on waiting lists, those receiving home-delivered meals, and those getting

deliveries of frozen foods.

Seniors with home-delivered meals reported the greatest improvement in health and quality of life.

In 2013 Brown University researchers found that meals delivered to seniors allowed them to stay in their homes rather than going to a nursing home, and that resulted in a net savings to Medicaid, which pays for about half of all nursing home stays.

Nursing home funding from Medicaid may be in trouble, too, if Congress cuts more than $800 billion out of Medicaid over the next 10 years, which has been proposed. States could have fewer dollars to channel into nursing home care. The picture is bleak for senior services.

Thirty-eight states also

use Medicaid dollars for home-delivered meals.

None of this makes much sense. The number of people needing food is growing rapidly and has been for decades. Erika Kelly, a government affairs officer for Meals on Wheels America, an umbrella organization for local programs, told me its members are already serving 23 million fewer meals than in 2005, a decline that has resulted in an increase in hunger.

Federal funding has not kept pace with the need.

Money from state and local governments and private philanthropy hasn’t been able to provide the rest of the money to feed everyone who needs a meal. “The gap has grown so much there’s no way private philanthropy will fill it,” says Ellie Hollander who heads Meals on Wheels America.

Philanthropy works only in places where there are lots of wealthy individuals and corporations to tap. In Dallas, donors who can write checks for $1 million or $2 million have helped whittle the waiting list from about

3,000 a year ago to 2,000 today.

What do those still on the lists do? “People have come to us who are literally starving, or they ask family to bring stuff from the food bank. It’s whatever they can do to get food into their homes,” says Katherine Krause, president of VNA Texas, the agency that delivers the meals.

Programs like those in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, aren’t as lucky. There aren’t many rich donors or big companies. “It’s worse now than it ever has been for funding,” says Director Betty Bradshaw.

In 1963 President John F. Kennedy, quoting the historian Arnold Toynbee noted in a special message to Congress, “a society’s quality and durability can best be measured ‘by the respect and care given its elderly citizens.’”

That respect and care may be threatened if government support to feed the elderly is cut.

TDOC can perform surprise visits on any of the state’s registered sex offenders at any time, but some are guaranteed to get two visits a year.

They are in the process of completing ‘Operation Clean Sweep’ which is their Spring operation that targets high risk sex offenders in the community, reported WBBJ. There are 900 registered high risk sex offenders in west Tennessee alone. Buckelew and his department make sure each are following the law.

During the visit, officers make sure they’re following very specific guidelines for their behavior.

Baldwyn City gets grant for generators BALDWYN — Baldwyn’s city hall will now be able to continue running if power ever goes out in the city, reported WTVA. That’s because the city now has a new generator that is powered by natural gas that will kick on whenever the power goes out.

The generator is reality due to a grant from MEMA and FEMA. Mayor Michael James says the generator would keep the fire department, city hall, and the city court system up and running during an outage.

“This will provide electricity for the city hall in case of a disaster, or just even the power going off for a short period of time. It’ll give us electricity to go ahead and operate and do business as normal,” James said.

Trump queries Civil War history

BY JONATHAN LEMIRE Associated Press

NEW YORK — The U.S. president had a historical question: Why did America’s Civil War happen? “Why could that one not have been worked out?”

Remarks by Donald Trump, aired Monday, showed presidential uncertainty about the origin and necessity of the Civil War, a defining event in U.S. history with slavery at its core. Trump also declared that President Andrew Jackson was angry about “what was happening” with regard to the war, which started 16 years after his death, and could have stopped it if still in office.

Trump, who has at times shown a shaky grasp of U.S. history, questioned why issues couldn’t have been settled to prevent the war that followed the secession of 11 Southern

states from the Union and brought death to more than 600,000 Americans, North and South.

“People don’t realize, you know, the Civil War, if you think about it, why?” Trump said in an interview with The Washington Examiner that also aired on Sirius XM radio.

“People don’t ask that question, but why was there the Civil War? Why could that one not have been worked out?”

In fact, the causes of the Civil War are frequently discussed, from middle school classrooms to university lecture halls and in countless books. Immigrants seeking to become naturalized are sometimes asked to name a cause of the war in their citizenship tests .

Fierce disagreement over the future of slavery was a driving force behind the war, but economic issues and disputes over state rights

were also factors.

“Slavery was the root cause of the Civil War. It was not the only cause, but it was the underlying cause,” said Eric Foner, a Columbia University history professor and a leading expert on the war.

“As a historian, I would prefer the president had a better handle on American history.”

Trump’s comments about the war came after he lauded Jackson, the populist president whom he and his staff have cited as a role model. He suggested that if Jackson had been president “a little later, you wouldn’t have had the Civil War.” “He was really angry that he saw what was happening with regard to the Civil War. He said, ‘There’s no reason for this,’” Trump continued.

Jackson died in 1845. The Civil War began in 1861.

WASHINGTON — Frustrated Republicans and Democrats on Tuesday warned top airline executives to improve customer services or face congressional intervention after a passenger was dragged from a United Airlines flight in an incident the company’s chief executive called a

“mistake of epic proportions.”

House Transportation Committee Chairman Bill Shuster, R-Pa., said carriers should use the notoriety of last month’s forcible removal of a passenger to make long-needed improvements. If the airlines don’t make changes, Congress is likely to step in, Shuster and other

lawmakers said.

“Seize this opportunity,” Shuster told United CEO Oscar Munoz and other airline executives at a hearing.

Otherwise, “we’re going to act and you’re not going to like it,” he said, predicting a “one-size-fitsall” solution that may serve some airlines but not all.

The man had come to the pharmacy earlier Monday and told employees his doctor was supposed to be faxing in a prescription for him, according to Rickman.

“He came back in later and walked straight back to the pharmacy,” said

Rickman. “He was desperate.”

The suspect made off with approximately 100 tablets of 15mg oxycodone and 40 tablets of 30mg oxycodone.

A photo of the man taken from an inside store camera was placed on Facebook by police.

“We have no further description of him other than

the photo,” said Rickman.

“Once he left the store, he went to the right and that’s all we know because there are no cameras outside the store.”

Washington Trump: ‘Shutdown’ needed to fix ‘mess’ WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump tweeted Tuesday that the U.S. government “needs a good shutdown� in September to fix a “mess� in the Senate, signaling his displeasure with a temporary spending bill that Republican congressional leaders — and Trump himself — are praising as a major accomplishment.

On Twitter and then in a White House ceremony, Trump issued contradictory statements ahead of key votes in Congress on the budget bill to keep the government running into the fall. He hailed the budget agreement as a boost for the military and border security.

Trump’s embrace of a potential government shutdown came days after he accused Senate Democrats of seeking such an outcome and obstructing majority Republicans during recent budget negotiations.

Lawmakers announced Sunday they had reached an agreement to avoid a shutdown until Oct. 1 — a deal that does not include several provisions sought by Trump, including money for a border wall. Â

Grand Canyon Body found ID’d as missing teen hiker GRAND CANYON NATIONAL PARK, Ariz. — A body found last week

has been identified as that of a 14-year-old hiker who went missing nearly two weeks ago while hiking a remote part of the Grand Canyon during a family trip, authorities said Monday.

Jackson Standefer, of Chattanooga, Tennessee, was crossing a creek on April 15 when he and his step-grandmother, LouAnn Merrell, lost their footing and were swept away.

The cause and manner of death for Jackson Standefer is pending, said Trish Lees, a spokeswoman for the Coconino County Medical Examiner’s Office.

Merrell, the wife of Merrell Boot Co. cofounder Randy Merrell, is still missing. Â

Los Angeles Deal averts strike by writers, producers LOS ANGELES — A tentative deal was reached between screenwriters and producers Tuesday, averting a strike that could have crippled TV and film production.

The three-year agreement, which requires ratification by members of the Writers Guild of America, was confirmed by the guild and producers’ spokesman Jarryd Gonzales shortly after the current contract expired early Tuesday. The deal came after a flurry of last-minute bargaining, conducted during a media blackout that offered no tangible details about whether picket lines would go up until after midnight Tuesday.

In a memo to its

members, the guild said gains were made across the board, including contributions to the union’s health plan that should “ensure its solvency for years to come� — an issue that writers considered key.

The union said it also made strides in pay for series with fewer episodes per season, and in residuals. Members overall will net $130 million more over the contract’s life than they were expected to accept, according to the memo. Â

Charleston Ex-officer pleads guilty in slaying CHARLESTON, S.C. — A white former police officer whose killing of an unarmed black man running from a traffic stop was captured on cellphone video pleaded guilty Tuesday to federal civil rights charges that could send him to prison for decades.

The plea from Michael Slager, 35, came five months after a jury deadlocked on state murder charges against him in the 2015 shooting of Walter Scott.

South Carolina prosecutors had planned to retry Slager, but as part of Tuesday’s plea bargain, they agreed to drop the murder case.

Slager admitted violating Scott’s civil rights by shooting him without justification. He could get up to life in prison and a $250,000 fine at sentencing, though prosecutors agreed to ask for more than 20 years behind bars. No sentencing date was set.

Jackson Mental health services to be cut JACKSON — The Mississippi Department of Mental Health says it will eliminate 650 positions, some through layoffs, over the next year because of state budget cuts. The department says it’s reducing some services, but a few will be handed off to community mental health centers.

The cuts are among the highest-profile results of the austere budget passed by lawmakers.

They come in the midst of a lawsuit alleging Mississippi relies too much on institutions, as opposed to community care. Despite the handoffs to community mental health centers, the department mainly seems poised to reduce services.

Democrats say the cuts show the Mississippi GOP’s policy of tax cuts and decreases in state services is the wrong approach. Â

while tax cuts eat into state revenue.

The agency also cites the unfunded liability of the Public Employees Retirement System, which could require higher contributions from state and local governments to close the gap.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Watch for the special series “Downtown Corinth: Where old meets new” coming every Sunday in the Daily Corinthian print edition. Watch for Part II this Sunday.

Friend suffering seizures plans to elude driving restrictions D E A R ABBY: I’m acquainted with a woman who has been experiencing seizures Abigail for several and, Van Buren years because of the seizures, Dear Abby has been restricted from driving. She drove her son to school a couple of years ago (he had missed the bus) and ran into a brick mailbox, totaling her car.

She now wants to be able to drive and has said she will not tell her doctor about recent seizures. Isn’t this potentially dangerous? -- RESTRICTED DRIVING IN KENTUCKY DEAR RESTRICTED DRIVING: Of course it’s dangerous!

It is also irresponsible and indefensible.

Periodically, we hear in the media about tragedies that happened because someone had a seizure and drove into a restaurant, a shop window, etc.

For someone with an illness that could endanger the lives of passengers, pedestrians and other innocent people to get behind the wheel of a vehicle is selfish and unconscionable.

Encourage her to talk to her

doctor about adjusting or changing her medication. And remind her that if she were to cause another accident, and it was discovered that she was driving in spite of being restricted, that she could not only kill people, she could also be prosecuted criminally and civilly.

DEAR ABBY: Whenever I give my longtime friend a gift, her immediate reaction is to tell me, “Oh, no.” Then she immediately offers to give me money for the gift.

When I give someone a gift, it is because I like that person and am excited to give them something I think they would like.

When she tells me I shouldn’t have done it and keeps asking how much money she owes me, I feel very hurt.

Now her daughter, whom I consider like my family, has learned it from her mom and does the same thing when I give her a gift. Abby, why do they react that way? I always give from my heart. -- GIFT GIVER IN TEXAS DEAR GIFT GIVER: I suspect your friend learned this behavior the way her daughter has -- from her mother. You might ask your friend to explain why she does this when you give her a gift, because her reaction is peculiar. (Could it be she feels

unworthy?) Because you know that receiving gifts makes her uncomfortable, my advice is to quit giving her things.

DEAR ABBY: I have a girlfriend. We have been dating for almost two months. We both love each other so much and think we are the perfect match.

But she is going to high school and I’m a year younger, which puts me in eighth grade. We live close to each other, so we see each other on the weekends.

She has been accepted to an amazingly good school, but it’s in downtown. What should we do? Should we keep our relationship or leave it if we won’t be able to see each other as often?

-- TEENS IN LOVE DEAR TEENS: If I TOLD you to break up because in a few months you and this girl won’t be able to see each other as often, would you do it? I don’t think so! What I do suggest is that the two of you let this play out. Enjoy each other for now, and in the fall, if your feelings -- or hers -- change, discuss it then.

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).

You feel like you’re in your own little world, but know that others are very aware of you now. “If you reveal your secrets to the wind, you should not blame the wind for revealing them to the trees.” -- Kahlil Gibran TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

There’s so much you have access to, and you’re a curious person, ready to learn all you can and experience the richness of life. Self-regulation is, therefore, among your biggest challenges.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You’re more concerned with achievement than reward. In fact, the reward, as far as you’re concerned, is the achievement.

The accolades can be nice, but they can also be embarrassing and cause more pressure than they are worth.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

New research suggests that you might do yourself some good by talking to yourself, especially if you’re saying encouraging or compassionate things, and most especially if you’re saying them out loud.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Take on the small, easily won challenges. Building up a track record of success will give you the confidence you need to go for the more remarkable and difficult opportunities coming your way in the near future.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Belonging isn’t about fitting together perfectly, having a lot in common or agreeing on most things. Belonging is about acceptance. Be inclusive. Set a tone of friendliness and compassion. Foster a sense of unconditional belonging.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

The nearness of interesting and well-traveled people or the pull of exotic lands will activate your adventurous spirit. If you make discovery a priority you’ll definitely find the necessary resources.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Everyone will bring something to the table, though not necessarily a tangible thing. Some will bring an idea, a talent for receptivity, a custom, a grateful heart and much expressed pleasure in the opportunity at

hand.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). For you, adrenaline isn’t a hormone that kicks in on an emergency-only basis; rather, it’s a daily boost. Your high-energy style will be well suited for the challenges of the day.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re happy when the people you love are happy.

There is one person in particular whose happiness means the most to you, and you’re likely to spend a lot of time, money and energy on making this person smile.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Sometimes it is more gracious to have a little of what’s being offered to you than to abstain. The gestures and rituals around togetherness will have greater meaning today.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

As artistic and imaginative as you are, you still admire those who lack pretension, are too laid back to strive and too chill to social-climb. Your values are right in line with all that it takes to create meaningful, lasting friendships.

NOTEBOOK

He won just twice in his ďŹ rst four seasons, all with Joe Gibbs Racing. But since he was shufďŹ&#x201A;ed out the door at Gibbs to make room for Matt Kenseth, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remade himself at Team Penske. In the past four seasons, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s won 15 Cup races, second in that time span to Jimmie Johnson, who has 16 and is destined to be considered one of NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best drivers of all time.

Logano acknowledged in his winnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interview that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a ways to go to match numbers like those posted by Johnson and the legends who came before him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;First off, if you think, 18 [wins] out of 300 [starts] doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sound very good, does it?

But the ďŹ rst 150 were pretty bad,â&#x20AC;? Logano said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It hurts the stat a little bit. If you look at the last 150 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; yeah, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty proud of that.â&#x20AC;?

Logano, who is now in a ďŹ ve-way tie for 44th place on the Cup circuitâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all-time wins list, admitted heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still pretty far down

Brian Lawdermilk/Getty Images for NASCAR

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been plenty of debate in NASCAR circles over which driver or drivers will emerge to lead the sport as it enters a new era without stars like the recently retired Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart; Carl Edwards, who walked away in the recent offseason; and the soon-to-be retired Dale Earnhardt Jr. One name not often mentioned alongside those of young guns like Kyle Larson, Erik Jones, Chase Elliott and Ryan Blaney is that of Joey Logano.

But at the relatively young age of 26 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; he turns 27 on May 24 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Logano likely has many years of competitive racing ahead of him. And despite a shaky start to his Cup career, one that saw him fail to live up to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sliced Breadâ&#x20AC;? moniker hung on him at the time, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s blossomed into quite a racer.

His win on Sunday at Richmond International Raceway was the 18th of his career in 300 starts over 10 seasons.

Joey Logano celebrates his win in the Toyota Owners 400 with a burnout after starting the race in the 37th position. It was Loganoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 18th win in 300 career stats.

the list. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Long ways to go,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That Richard Petty guy, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got quite a few.â&#x20AC;? (Petty leads all drivers with 200 Cup wins.)

Logano is much closer to matching numbers with Johnson of late, although he did point out that Johnson has won about a third of the races since Logano joined the Cup circuit. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To be within one win of a legend like Jimmie Johnson is, hey, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pretty freaking cool,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a strong team, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to get some championships and keep winning those races. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nice to keep stacking them up, but long, long ways to go. But at least Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m young and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a long ways to go.â&#x20AC;?

At Richmond, Logano did what great drivers do. He won a race in which he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the best car or the best starting spot. He started 37th after his crew had to change the transmission in his No. 22 Ford before the race.

He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take the lead for the ďŹ rst time until Lap 371 of 400, and took it for good on Lap 384, with some daring driving on the raceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ nal restart.

On that start, six drivers stayed on the track while the rest of the leaders pitted for fresh tires.

Logano lined up in seventh place and was in second one lap later. The next lap, he drove by leader Kyle Larson, and from that point on managed to stay in front of his fellow Team Penske driver Brad Keselowski, who led 110 laps on the day and appeared to have the faster car at the ďŹ nish.

Denny Hamlin ďŹ nished third in a Toyota, ahead of Ricky Stenhouse Jr. and Kevin Harvick in Fords. That gave Ford four of the top ďŹ ve ďŹ nishing positions.

Xfinity overtime restart ends in caution â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kyle Larson gets the win the series sponsor for being the highestfinishing Xfinity regular, Allgaier was disappointed afterward. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bittersweet day, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be honest with you,â&#x20AC;? Allgaier said in his TV interview. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really dejected. I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lie to you. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to hurt for a long time.â&#x20AC;?

Larson, who had never led a lap at Richmond in the Xfinity Series before leading 10 on Saturday, said he was a bit surprised to win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not good at this place, so a win is pretty neat,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I still have to work on myself for long runs. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m terrible on long runs.â&#x20AC;?

Daniel Hemric, who started on the pole, finished third ahead of Austin Dillon and Ryan Blaney.

Darrell Wallace Jr., who saw his string of five-straight sixth-place finishes end with a crash at Bristol the week before, scored another sixth at Richmond. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What a day,â&#x20AC;? Wallace said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This sixthplace finish is not like our other ones. We definitely didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deserve it, but our attitude is to never give up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think we would get up to the top10, but long runs helped us for sure. We just didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have that fire-off speed. ... We will make the most of it.â&#x20AC;?

Brian Lawdermilk/Getty Images for NASCAR

Justin Allgaier had the fastest car in Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Toyota Care 250 Xfinity Series race at Richmond International Raceway, but Kyle Larson got a couple of late-race breaks and took his second victory of the Xfinity season.

Allgaier led a race-high 157 of 254 laps and was poised to win when the caution flag flew for the smoking car of B.J. McLeod with just 10 of the scheduled 250 laps remaining.

The leaders all drove to the pits for fresh tires, and Ty Dillon took the lead after taking just two tires.

On the restart, Dillon appeared to accelerate before the restart zone and was penalized by NASCAR. That put Larson on the front row with Allgaier for an overtime run to the finish line.

On that restart, Allgaier hung tight on the outside with Larson into Turn One, but slipped a bit, allowing Larson to motor away down the backstretch.

Then, before Allgaier could challenge Larson again, another caution flew. And since Larson had passed the overtime line before the caution, the field was frozen and he had the win.

There still was confusion as the yellow lights were on around the track, but when drivers reached the frontstretch, only the white flag was visible from the flagstand.

Despite winning a $100,000 bonus from

A yellow Ă ag during the oYertime run of the Toyota Care 0 locked .yle Larson 4 into Ă&#x20AC;rst place and left Justin Allgaier 7 helpless in second place as the two took the checkered Ă ag under caution.

After NASCAR dream faded, Joey Coulter chose to stay on the track

Joey Coulter races the No. )ord for Rum Runner Racing with Black RiĂ e Coffee Co. as a primary sponsor.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m having a good time,â&#x20AC;? Coulter said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a whole different environment for me and for our whole team. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of fun. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re learning a lot and having a lot of fun. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most important thing.â&#x20AC;?

He said he has few regrets about the way his NASCAR career played out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is what it is,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obviously, when things kind of fell apart, it was kind of hard to swallow because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where my focus had been and what I had set the goal as doing. But I talked Joey Coulter to a wise person [fellow racer and summa cum laude Harvard University graduate Patrick Staropoli] who told me the goal had been to be a race car driver, and at the end of the day, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s NASCAR, IMCA or World of Outlaws Late Models, as long as Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m driving, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once I let that click I started having a lot of fun doing the dirt thing and wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thinking so much about the could-haves and would-haves.â&#x20AC;?

Coulter said that even though the drivers he now races against, like Shane Clanton, Casey Roberts and Chris Madden may not be as well known as those on the NASCAR circuit, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got plenty of talent. And there are a lot of them out there every week. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Truck racing, as tough as it was to win a race, you never really worried about missing a show, at least in the equipment I was in,â&#x20AC;?

Coulter said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We pretty much knew we were going to make the race and have a shot at winning it. But in this [dirt racing], if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a 24-car field, there might be 48 drivers show up that are really good at it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much more talent everywhere you go in dirt racing.â&#x20AC;?

Joey Coulter climbed from his dirt Late Model car after a hardfought 13th-place finish at Senoia Raceway in Georgia two weeks ago. He talked to his crew, his wife, Jessica, and their 15-month-old daughter, Charlie Claire. He was all smiles recapping the race.

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the racing career he once envisioned, but he seemed as content as one could be. At one time, Coulter, now 26, was on track to achieve his dream of racing in NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s elite Cup series. From 2011 to 2014, he ran 91 races in NASCARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Camping World Truck Series and five more in the Xfinity Series. He won a truck race at Pocono in 2012 and had 19 top-five and 43 top-10 finishes overall in trucks, along with three poles and a best points finish of third in 2012. He also finished seventh in the standings twice, in 2011 and 2014.

But his driving days in NASCAR came to an end due to, among other things, a lack of sponsorship. So with the support of his family, he stepped over to the dirt Late Model ranks. He now races with the World of Outlaws touring series, along with select appearances on other circuits. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not NASCAR, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s racing, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most important thing for him.

Jimmie Johnson accidentally takes out teammate Junior Dale Earnhardt Jr. was knocked out of contention in Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race by the unlikeliest of competitors â&#x20AC;&#x201D; his Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jimmie Johnson.

On Lap 358 of 400, Earnhardt was running in second place, riding the high groove, hoping for a caution flag that would allow his strategy of pitting late in a green-flag run to pay A late-race collision with Jimmie Johnson knocked dividends.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. out of Instead, Sundayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race. After the he was the race, Johnson tweeted: victim of a ´:e oYer came a lot collision with today for a decent Ă&#x20AC;nish. I Johnson, who was eYen able to crash a had pitted teammate. #Goodtimes earlier and #Joking.â&#x20AC;? Earnhardt was running replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ya bro, you made much faster my CD skip.â&#x20AC;? on fresh tires than Earnhardt, who was on his worn tires.

The impact slammed Earnhardt into the outside wall. He lost two laps and finished 30th. Johnson, who also received damage in the incident, recovered to finish 11th.

He shouldered the blame for the collision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just feel terrible, obviously,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Man, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m surprised our cars even kept rolling after that because I just body slammed him into the wall. ... Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the last thing you want to have happen with a teammate.â&#x20AC;?

Earnhardt blamed bad luck, saying he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like he had a winning car before the incident with Johnson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were probably going to finish anywhere around 10th to 15th today, not all that awesome, but we just had such terrible luck,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Earnhardt is 24th in the points standings heading into this weekendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race at Talladega Superspeedway. )acebook.com/JimmieJohnson

Local HS athletes going for gold

BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

Maybe football, basketball and baseball get most of the print but ask any mom or dad of a student athlete who plays golf or runs track and they’ll tell you really quick how hard their kids work and what it means for them to be recognized.

With that in mind each Alcorn County school will be represented at the state track and field meet this weekend at Pearl High School just east of Jackson.

Here is a listing of the students from each school that will be going for the gold beginning this Friday.

The Kossuth Aggies and Corinth Warriors will have the largest groups as CHS

will send 11 and KHS will have 9.

Corinth athletes making the trip are Holly Ross, Molly Johnson, Bryce Hawkins, Camden Shock, Shron Rogers, Thomas Ratliff, James Shea, JC Requena, Christian Peterson, Morgan Toomer and Blake Knippers.

Kossuth will send Regan Bobo, Kassidy Carson, Isabella Duncan, Lauren Green, Caitlin Elam, Tanner Childs, Dalton Lovelace, Charlie Meeks and Tucker Weggman.

Biggersville will be represented by Tyleshia Davis, Canaysia Barton, Aunesty Dilworth, Zianna Taylor, Greg Robinson, Cameron Barnett and Joseph Prather.

After losing a ton of talent

off last year’s division champion squads, Alcorn Central will send Mallory Wigginton, Autumn Hindman and Kamron Rorie.

It should also be noted that both the Kossuth boys and girls track and field teams were this year’s Division 1-3A champions and both finished third at the regionals held recently.

The state championships for track and field will be conducted at Pearl High School this year. Divisions 1A, 3A, and 5A will be Friday while 2A, 4A and 6A will run on Saturday.

We encourage any parent or coach for each school to make sure and notify the Daily Corinthian as soon as possible, especially if your

student or child wins an individual or team title.

You can email the results to kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com or call or text them to (662) 594-5678. We will publish any results that are sent to us in next Tuesday’s Daily Corinthian sports pages.

We also have local student/athletes still working for awards on the links and tennis courts. Parents and coaches of high school golfers and tennis players who have qualified for state should also notify the Daily Corinthian as stated above. Please be prompt so your child and school will be represented.

GREENSBORO, Ga. — Team Ole Miss closed out with five straight birdies to win the 2017 Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl Challenge by two strokes Tuesday at the Reynolds Lake Oconee Resort outside Atlanta.

Head Coach Hugh Freeze and celebrity partner Wesley Walls carded a final score of -11 to win the $100,000 first-place prize and their second consecutive Chickfil-A Peach Bowl Challenge.

Team Florida finished second with a score of -9, while the teams from Georgia and N.C. State tied for third at -8.

“It was a gorgeous day, and Wesley and I really played well together,” Freeze said.

“We really never got in trouble. If I hit a bad one, Wesley hit a good one and vice versa.”

“When you’re going down the stretch and you need a six-footer for a birdie, Coach is the guy I want on my team,” said Walls, who is a College Football Hall of Fame tight end for the Rebels.

Corinth resident catches record yellow bass

BY KENT MOHUNDRO kmohundro@dailycorinthian.com

Rock Hill resident Zach Lipford recently reeled in a state record yellow bass on the Mississippi side of Pickwick Lake near Yellow Creek.

His cousin Rodney King was also in the boat at the time of the record catch.

“We were casting for crappie,” said Lipford. “We had caught several already and I got another bite but this time it wasn’t a crappie. It was a yellow bass and a big one. I knew when I caught it that it was a state record because the previous record for a yellow bass was just over a pound.”

“We first weighed the fish on Rodney’s digital scale and it said two pounds and four ounces. I called my son Chris and told him and then we called the Mississippi Game and Fish department and they sent us to Pickwick Supermarket to get it certified. On the Pickwic scales it weighed two pounds and a quarter ounce which is still a state record.”

Lipford filled out all the

Then Lipford discovered that the catch was also a

national record for a yellow bass on an eight pound line.

The record fish is now documented and in the World Record National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame for Division 1 rod and reel on an eight pound line.

Lipford caught the yellow bass on a quarter ounce jig with a Charlie Brewer Crappie slider, seven-foot medium action rod and Abu Garcia spinning reel with an eight-pound Berkley Trilene Extra Smooth line.

“It was a thrill to realize what I had caught when I pulled it up in the boat,” Lipford continued. “I didn’t expect to catch a record size fish when I went out that day.”

The Alcorn County resident would like to thank Tom Holman and Trevor Knight of the MS Game and Fish Department and Laura Miller of Pickwick Supermarket who weighed and certified the record catch.

King and Miller were both witnesses to the record fish which is now being mounted for posterity.

Bengals urged to speak out against domestic violence The Associated Press

CINCINNATI — An advocacy group is urging the Cincinnati Bengals to speak out against domestic violence after the team drafted a player who punched a woman in the face.

Women Helping Women called on the team to take a public stand against domestic violence and sexual assault. The Bengals chose Oklahoma running back Joe Mixon in the second round of the NFL draft on Friday even though he was suspended for one year in college for punching a woman.

Women Helping Women is a regional agency that serves approximately 7,000 survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault each year. Representatives of the group and the Bengals met on Monday.

“We expect businesses in our great city, and this includes sports teams, to place a high value on speaking out against both domestic violence and sexual assault,” said Kristin Smith-Shrimplin, president and CEO of Women Helping Women.

The agency issued a statement saying the Bengals should send a message to its fans.

“Violence holds no honor and should hold no position on a team,” the statement said.

“Violence is already too rampant, where one in three women experiences physical or sexual violence in their lifetime.

Our community deserves better.”

The Bengals praised the group’s work in a statement on Tuesday and said they’re “look forward to continuing our conversation as we look for ways to work together. We recognize the Bengals hold a special place in the community and we are committed to being good corporate citizens.”

The club has faced a backlash since drafting Mixon, who was suspended for his freshman season at Oklahoma because he punched Amelia Molitor in July 2014, breaking bones in her face.

A local television station posted an editorial on Saturday saying it was “disgraceful” for the team to draft Mixon.

years.

“This has been a wonderful week of fellowship, golf and charity,” said Gary Stokan, president and CEO of Peach Bowl, Inc. “Congratulations to

Ole Miss’ Hugh Freeze and Wesley Walls for taking home the title for the second year in a row.

We’re honored to donate $100,000 to them for university scholarships and the Hugh and Jill Freeze Foundation.”

Don’t make volcanoes when applying mulch Driving around town this weekend, I enjoyed all the work felGary low garBachman d e n e r s have been Southern d o i n g Gardening in their yards.

I thought our early spring weather brought out the best in our landscapes, but then I saw it.

I couldn’t believe my eyes, but there they were: mulch volcanoes.

It’s been a couple of years since I’ve seen a real doozy of a mulch volcano, and I realized again what my duty has to be. I have to convince people that mulch volcanoes are bad for our trees.

So, who’s to blame when a mulch volcano is created? Most gardeners love their trees and want to do what they can to help them grow and prosper.

Don’t mulch trees like this. Mulching offers significant benefits, but a layer should only be 2 to 3 inches deep and pulled away from the tree trunk.

Newspapers, magazines, TV gardening shows and landscape professionals tell us perhaps the best thing we can do for our trees is to add a layer of mulch around the base. Mulching reduces weeds, cools the soil and

most importantly, conserves precious water in the tree’s root zone.

The ideal mulch thickness is 2 to 3 inches, but some gardeners think 6 to 10 inches has to be better, and so mulch volcanoes are born.

When a thick layer of mulch is spread around the trunk of a tree, many things can happen, and they’re all bad. The mulch will indeed hold moisture, but it will be up against the tree trunk, creating a condition where the bark

starts to decay. This problem allows fungi, bacteria and insects to get under the bark and cause problems internally for the tree.

Circling roots are another problem commonly found in mulch volcanoes.

In this moist environment, a tree will begin to grow roots into the mulch instead of outward into the surrounding soil. Most mulch volcanoes are circular because that’s the way most homeowners place mulch around trees. Roots will start to circle the tree, staying in the mulch.

An example of root circling can be seen with bedding plants or any plant grown in a container. Many consumers will look at the roots of a container-grown plant before purchasing it. They are looking for roots that circle the inside the container. These roots never grow out into the soil, and the plant will not perform well in the landscape.

As the tree grows, the

circumference of the trunk grows larger, and the circling roots eventually strangle the tree.

However, the tree does not die immediately. It goes through a prolonged period of decline.

The proper way to mulch a tree is to first spread an even 2- to 3-inch layer around the base of the tree. The diameter of this mulch is up to the home owner. I personally like big mulch beds around trees to ease lawn mowing and reduce edging, but that is a topic for another column.

After the mulch is applied, use a rake or your hands to pull the mulch back away from the tree trunk. It is OK to leave a thin layer to avoid exposing bare soil, as long as the mulch does not touch the tree trunk. As you pull the mulch back, contour it to resemble a bowl. This shape helps to collect water and direct it towards the root system of the tree during rain or irrigation.

Add a little history in your garden with heirloom plants

BY LEE REICH Associated Press

You’re rummaging in the attic, in great grandma’s steamer trunk, and you come upon a dusty old packet of garden balsam seeds. An heirloom!

This heirloom’s probably more valuable for the picture on the packet than for the seeds, which probably have lost their vitality. You could, though, if you wanted, get your hands on heirloom plants

that would grow.

Heirloom plants are those that have been handed down from generation to generation as saved seeds or pieces of stems or roots. These varieties produce nostalgia for bygone times and the plants’ particular qualities.

Variation With a more casual growth habit than modern hybrids, heirlooms

won’t give the ordered look of a brigade of soldiers when planted en masse.

Plant-to-plant variations of heirloom flowers may be subtle, as in the almost uniform stand of blue flowers from a seed packet of Blue Boy bachelor’s buttons — a variety grown by Thomas Jefferson. Or the variations may be more dramatic, as in the occasional orange flower popping up among the reds from

a packet of Gift zinnias, an heirloom variety from Russia.

Heirloom plants also don’t march in step like soldiers. Plants from a packet of Golden Bantam corn, a delectable variety dating back to 1902, ripen over the course of more than a week. But plan on picking over a planting of modern Early Sunglow Hybrid corn in just a couple of days or you’ll miss peak flavor.

Heirloom availability Every year, fewer and fewer heirlooms are offered for sale. More money is to be made on hybrids and patented plants. They sell for more and appeal to a wider audience, even if some heirlooms have dedicated followings.

Still, heirlooms are available. Seed Savers Exchange (www.seedsavers. org) and the Thomas Jefferson Center for Historic

Plants (www.monticello. org/site/house-and-gardens/thomas-jeffersoncenter-historic-plants) are among mail-order specialists in heirloom flowers and vegetables.

Trees of Antiquity (www. treesofantiquity.com), Greenmantle Nursery (www.greenmantlenursery.com), and Cummins Nursery (www.cumminsnursery.com) are among nurseries offering oldtime fruit varieties.

Pasta neednâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be so unhealthy

BY MELISSA Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ARABIAN Associated Press

Ask my husband what his favorite comfort food is and the answer will be quick: pasta. Who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t love a steamy bowl of noodles or macaroni slathered in butter and cheese? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a classic, born straight out of childhood mac and cheese days, morphed into a late night college study-session standby.

As adults, we decide to eat healthier, and it almost seems like our loyal noodle friend gets tossed aside, as if there were no way to include pasta in a healthy diet. Well, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here with good news: Pasta can be part of a healthy diet, and I have a few tips to help keep things both comforting and nutritious.

First: Read the labels, because not all pastas are created equal. Look for whole grain pastas, which usually WUDQVODWH LQWR PRUH SURWHLQ DQG ÂżEHU ZKLFK PDNHV \RXU PHDO PRUH ÂżOOLQJ So instead of 2 full ounces, which is the standard pasta serving size, you

might be looking at leftovers.

If you are feeling extra ambitious, you can even seek out some pasta versions that are made from beans and legumes. Next tip is to minimize fat by using starchy pasta water for saucy silkiness â&#x20AC;&#x201D; just scoop out some water with a measuring cup before draining the pasta. Saute up some veggies and aromatics in just a smidge of olive oil, and use the pasta water to add the saucy vibe.

Adding veggies to the pasta will bulk it up, add nutrients and make the pasta prettier. My go-to is frozen spinach â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I always have a bag in my freezer so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an easy way to get some pretty green in pasta. You could saute it up with the aromatics and olive, or toss the frozen spinach right into the boiling pasta just before draining in to cook it there.

0\ ÂżQDO WLS WU\ OHPRQ ]HVW LQVWHDG of part or all of the parmesan cheese.

The zest adds an aromatic depth that somehow makes the nutty parmesan cheese less pronounced if missing.

Note that when I use my lemon zest trick, I swap out classic basil and use fresh thyme instead.

Penne with garlic, tomatoes, lemon zest and spinach Servings: 6 Start to finish: 20 minutes 12 ounces whole grain penne pasta 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil 3 cloves garlic, minced 1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes 2 cups grape tomatoes, washed and thoroughly dried 6 ounces chopped frozen spinach, thawed, excess moisture squeezed out 1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme 2 tablespoons lemon zest Lemons for squeezing, optional Salt and pepper

3/4 cup of starchy pasta water before draining. While pasta is cooking: Place the olive oil, garlic and red SHSSHU Ă&#x20AC;DNHV LQ D UDPHNLQ DQG PL[ with a spoon, gently pressing the garlic into the oil. Place the garlic oil in an unheated deep saute pan, and turn the burner on medium heat.

As soon as the oil is warm and smells of garlic, add the tomatoes, and cook until they are coated with garlic oil and they barely begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the spinach and cook, stirring for 3 minutes.

Increase the temperature to medium high, and add the cooked pasta and about half the starchy water. Stir, and let simmer for 1 minute. Add extra water if needed. Add the thyme, lemon zest and salt and pepper to taste. Serve with lemons for squeezing (optional).

Cook the pasta according to package directions, reserving about

Chicken, peppers a perfect fit for grilling weather

BY KATIE WORKMAN Associated Press

I know some readers of this column grill year-round. Some of you because you live in temperate climates, where winter just means putting on a light jacket to throw some burgers on, and some of you because you are die-hard grilling machines, who would chisel the ice RĚ&#x2020; \RXU FKDUFRDO EULTXHWWHV WR OLJKW D ÂżUH RXWGRRUV I fall into neither camp, though I DP HQRXJK RI D JULOOLQJ EXĚ&#x2020; WKDW DV soon as the weather seems remotely cooperative, I grab those tongs and VHQG P\ KXVEDQG *DU\ RXW WR ÂżOO XS the propane tank (and yes, I know that for you hard-core grillers, the fact that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not using charcoal or hardwood makes me a pretender at best. But thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a jolly, ample expanse between culinary perfection and everyday dinners, and I like to wander about freely in that open space).

If the weather isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cooperating, or if you are a city dweller, those nice grill pans, or even a panini press, can be called into service.

Anyway, other than a nice soak in a lemony marinade, this chicken and pepper dish requires only a handful of ingredients, little skill and a small FRPPLWPHQW RI WLPH E\ WKH ÂżUH 7KH

result is colorful and gorgeous and Ă&#x20AC;DYRUIXO DQG YHU\ KHDOWKIXO WR ERRW Serve with rice or any grains you are into at the moment. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice way to get both you and your grill reacquainted.

Grilled chicken and peppers Start to finish: 7 hours (6 hours of marinating time) Serves 6 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts 2 red bell peppers 2 yellow bell peppers 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice 1/2 cup olive oil 1/4 cup minced shallots 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves 1/4 cup chopped black olives, like kalamata 2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce Kosher or coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste Fresh thyme sprigs to serve Trim the chicken breasts and use a large sharp knife to cut them into three pieces, about 2 inches wide each. If the chicken breasts are very think, cut each of the pieces in half horizontally, so you have two thinner, small cutlets from each piece. Cut the bell peppers into 2-inch pieces, and discard the stem and seeds.

In a large container or zipper top bag, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, shallots, thyme, black olives, sriracha, and salt and pepper.

Add the chicken and peppers to the marinade, making sure the marinade coats all of the ingredients. Cover and marinate for 6 to 12 hours in the refrigerator.

Bring the chicken and peppers to room temperature while you heat

the grill to medium high. Remove the chicken and peppers from the marinade, and discard the marinade.

Grill the chicken and the peppers for 4 or 5 minutes on each side, until nicely browned and cooked through.

Serve the chicken and peppers with the thyme sprigs tucked in.

The forgotten side of the family WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I am writing because another Mother’s Day will soon be upon us and, once again, my grown stepchildren — who were grown and on their own when their parents divorced — will ignore me.

Every year, they celebrate Mother’s Day without thinking of me at all.

That wouldn’t hurt so much if I could write it off as just my being a stepparent — but every Father’s Day, they include their stepfather in the celebration.

Many other times, they share with their mother and stepfather whatever news they have — a new vehicle they bought, the name of their unborn baby, etc.

Their father and I do eventually learn most news, but it’s usually long after the fact.

We all get along, and there is absolutely no animosity at all among any of us; we love them, and we both love the former in-laws.

All I ask is for them to treat their father as well as they treat their stepfather.

I hope that they see themselves in this letter and do a gut check.

Their father loves them very much, but he is accustomed to not being included, so he hides his

Dear Annie pain from them.

Since we married, he has leaned more on me, seeing as they don’t ever call him just to chat.

I call my dad regularly, and my husband was astounded when he learned that.

I hurt for him and for them because they have no idea how they hurt us, and we will never let them know.

Is it asking too much to be included in their news?

We share our news with them and don’t leave them out, as far as I can tell.

They are very familyoriented, just not with their dad. — Midwestern Stepmother Loving Them From the Outside Dear Midwestern: The sentence that most struck me in your letter was this: “They have no idea how they hurt us, and we will never let them know.”

Your husband hides his pain from them, so for all they know, he’s fine with talking only once in a while.

They may even think he prefers it

that way.

This is the status quo they’re used to, and until you take the initiative to call more and speak up about your wish to be included, your stepchildren will continue in their current pattern.

So shake up the routine.

Call them often.

Invite them to visit, and go visit them.

Let them know how much you value the time together.

Dear Annie: This is in response to “Distracted

by His Distraction,” who is bothered by her longterm partner’s wandering eyes whenever they’re out together.

Maybe the only way her partner will get the message is if she does likewise — sets her eyes and attention on a handsome man in the restaurant. — CR in New York Dear CR: Not a bad idea.

I’m not normally an advocate of the eyefor-an-eye approach, but in this case, perhaps “Distracted” would do well to illustrate her point with an ogle for an ogle.

Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@creators.com.
