Chili cook wins after 10th visit Lottery committee meets for first time BY MARK BOEHLER

editor@dailycorinthian.com

An Illinois chili cook has not missed a Crossroads Chili Cookoﬀ. His 10th visit to Corinth proved to be a keeper as the cook punched his ticket to the International Chili Society (ICS) World Championship. Bob Hall of Taylorville, Ill. won the ICS Red Chili competition on Saturday, giving him the Mississippi championship, an extra $1,000 and a shot at the world title. The local competition may be Hall’s lucky charm. He won ICS Chili Verde in 2009 and went on to win the world title that year. The Crossroads Chili Cookoﬀ got a big surprise from this year’s ICS Chili Verde winner. John Blackwell of Kennesaw, Ga. gave his $300 check to the Crossroads Museum, this year’s non-profit group who gets proceeds from the People’s Choice chili testing. Blackwell’s gesture is actually a $600 gift as all money raised this year for the museum’s “Save the Fire Truck Campaign” will be matched dollar for dollar Please see COOKOFF | 2A

The Mississippi House Lottery Study Working Group convened for its first meeting late last week as the state takes a new look at the game of chance as a potential revenue source. The ninem e m b e r Bain committee is tasked with a fact-finding mission on various aspects of lotteries. It will not make a recommendation. Thursday’s meeting “was basically just an agenda setting — laying out a roadmap for what is to come,” said Rep. Nick Bain (D - Corinth), who is part of the committee. He said the group will present its findings in the fall. The group plans to study the 44 states with lotteries and the types of games oﬀered and consider the pros and cons of joining the Multi-State Lot-

tery Association. The group will look at the time required to launch a lottery, and the members plan to visit Arkansas and Louisiana to assess the good and bad aspects of the lottery in those states. Thursday’s session included a “Lottery 101” overview, with a history of the games and recent statistics. Despite the growth of state-run lotteries, participation in lotteries has decreased somewhat from 57 percent to 50 percent among Americans, the group was told. Fiscal year 2016 sales totaled $80.5 billion nationwide, ranging from $33.4 million in Wyoming, the newest lottery state, to $9.7 billion in New York. Sales in bordering states were $455.6 million in Arkansas, $507 million in Louisiana and $1.6 billion in Tennessee. In addition to Mississippi, only Alabama, Alaska, Hawaii, Nevada and Utah do not have state-run lotteries. Other members of the study group are Rep. Richard BenPlease see LOTTERY | 2A

Gospel group to honor Frazier BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

A legendary gospel music group will return to Corinth this weekend for the 20th Annual Leon Frazier Memorial Concert presented by the Corinth Kiwanis Club. The Kingsmen Quartet will headline the concert. The show will also include Gold City Quartet, The Perrys, Josh & Ashley Franks and Dujuana Frazier Thompson and family. Advanced tickets and Artists Circle reception tickets are currently available for the memorial concert, set for 6 p.m. on Saturday at the Historic Corinth Coliseum Civic Center in downtown Corinth. Touring for more than half

a century, the Kingsmen’s legacy is far reaching, much like Leon Frazier. One of Leon’s closest friends was Ray Dean Reese, who joined the Kingmen as bass vocalist in the mid-60s. “Leon was a good friend to all of us in the group,” Reese told the Daily Corinthian. “Being able to come back to Corinth for this concert is one wonderful way that we get to remember Leon and honor his legacy.” The North Carolinabased group is one of the most awarded groups in Southern Gospel Music history. They’ve had 14 Singing News Top 40 number one songs, several Dove Awards, Grammy nominations and appearances at some of the

nation’s most prestigious venues including the Grand Ole Opry and The White House. They are also members of the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, Christian Music Hall of Fame and Southern Gospel Music Hall of Fame. “The group has quite a history,” said Reese. “We’ve been spreading gospel and song for more than 50 years.” The group’s dynamic live performances, beginning with 1973’s “Big And Live”, set a standard for the genre. The Kingsmen have come to be known for big, booming voices, high tenors and a low bass with tight, intricate Please see GROUP | 6A

Teen dies shielding cousin from gunfire BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS

Today is Wednesday, May 31, the 151st day of 2017. There are 214 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History On May 31, 1977, the Trans-Alaska oil pipeline, three years in the making despite objections from environmentalists and Alaska Natives, was completed. (The first oil began flowing through the pipeline 20 days later; today the pipeline carries an average of 1.8 million barrels of oil a day, according to the Alaska Public Lands Information Centers website.)

On this date In 1790, President George Washington signed into law the first U.S. copyright act. In 1889, some 2,200 people in Johnstown, Pennsylvania, perished when the South Fork Dam collapsed, sending 20 million tons of water rushing through the town. In 1910, the Union of South Africa was founded. In 1916, during World War I, British and German fleets fought the naval Battle of Jutland off Denmark; there was no clear-cut victor, although the British suffered heavier losses. In 1949, former State Department official and accused spy Alger Hiss went on trial in New York, charged with perjury (the jury deadlocked, but Hiss was convicted in a second trial).

Associated Press

BROOKHAVEN — It was after midnight when a gunman burst into the living room of a southern Mississippi home where young people were playing video games. Caleb Edwards, 15, said the man — whom he knows as Corey Godbolt — demanded to know where his cousin’s parents where. Jordan Blackwell, 18, said they were gone to another town. At that, Godbolt “just started shooting,” Caleb said. As people scrambled to hide inside the Brookhaven home, Blackwell used his own body to shield his cousin Caleb from the gunfire. With his mother standing by his side Monday, Caleb spoke calmly as he recounted to The Associated Press how he felt the force of the impact as Blackwell was shot Sunday. “He loved me enough to take some bullets for me,” Caleb said. Caleb’s 11-year-old brother, Austin Edwards, was also shot

to death in that living room early Sunday. They were among the eight people killed in three houses in a rampage that started late Saturday after law enforcement oﬃcers were called about a domestic dispute. A deputy sheriﬀ was among those killed. The other seven were all relatives or acquaintances of the accused shooter. Investigators said Willie Corey Godbolt, 35, will be charged with one count of capital murder and seven counts of first degree murder. Mississippi Bureau of Investigation spokesman Warren Strain said the charges could change as the investigation continues. Godbolt was hospitalized for a gunshot wound and was in good condition Monday; it wasn’t clear who shot him. He could make an initial court appearance Tuesday. The Mississippi Bureau of Investigation identified some of those killed as: Barbara Mitchell, 55; Brenda May, 53; Tocarra May, 35; Ferral Burage, 45; and Shelia Burage, 46; and deputy

William Durr, 36. The parents of Austin Edwards and Jordan Blackwell identified their sons as the other victims. Brookhaven is a south Mississippi city surrounded by pine trees and rolling green pastures. The outbreak of violence has shaken the county of 34,500 residents. More than a dozen people stood in the driveway of Edwards’ and Blackwell’s grandparents Monday afternoon and joined hands for prayer. “We need you, oh God, to be with this family in their grief,” said Richard Thomas, pastor of New Home Church of Christ Holiness. Jordan Blackwell played linebacker for the Brookhaven High football team. As he prepared for his senior year, two universities and a nearby community college had already expressed interest in him, said his mother, Tiﬀany Blackwell. She and her husband, Shon, described their son as cheerful and unselfish. She said Jordan dreamed of get-

ting a Camaro for high school graduation. Tears rolled down one cheek Monday as Tiﬀany Blackwell described coming home and finding her slain son. “When I walked in the house and saw my child lying there, I just thought he was sleeping,” she said. “I told him to wake up. I told him to get up, but he wouldn’t move.” Caleb described his younger brother, Austin, as “a happy kid” who liked to play and cook. Caleb said after his brother was shot, “I thought I was going to die.” Godbolt showed up at Vincent Mitchell’s Bogue Chitto home before midnight Saturday to demand that his estranged wife give up their two children. She and the children had been staying with them for about three weeks, Mitchell told AP. “He’d come to get his kids. The deputy was called,” and asked him to leave, and it seemed like Godbolt would comply at first, Mitchell said.

More prosecutions coming in prison bribery case BY JEFF AMY Associated Press

JACKSON — At least two people still face trial in a wideranging bribery scandal that centers on the former leader of Mississippi’s prison system, and oﬃcials say the total could eventually reach more than a half dozen. Former corrections commissioner Christopher Epps was sentenced last week to nearly 20 years in prison, two years after he pleaded guilty to charges of money laundering and filing false tax returns connected to bribes he took. Two people who have pleaded not guilty still face trial on con-

spiracy and bribery indictments. Lawyers and investigators said last Wednesday in court that six or seven more prosecutions still may be coming. They say one more person has already been indicted, but the accusations haven’t been unsealed. Most remaining indictments could come in Louisiana, they say. Insurance broker Guy “Butch” Evans of Jackson is accused of bribing Epps in exchange for prison insurance business. Evans has pleaded not guilty to an indictment alleging that he kicked back part of his commissions to Epps, making cash payments of $1,400 to $1,700 a month from January 2013 to May 2014. That’s

at least $23,800 Evans is accused of passing to Epps in meetings in the parking lot of Corrections Department headquarters or in restaurants. Evans faces up to 30 years in prison and a fine of up to $500,000 if convicted. The government also wants Evans to forfeit the more than $44,000 he gained from the scheme. Evans’ trial had been set for June but has been delayed until at least August. Teresa Malone, wife of former state House Corrections Committee Chairman Bennett Malone, is accused of paying kickbacks to Epps. Malone pleaded not guilty

Aug. 3 to an indictment alleging she paid Epps over nearly four years. Prosecutors say payments were kickbacks from a $5,000-a-month consulting contract Epps steered to Malone from a health care consultant. Malone allegedly got more than $170,000. She faces up to 30 years in prison and a fine of up to $500,000 if convicted. U.S. District Judge Henry T. Wingate indefinitely delayed Malone’s trial in January after her lawyers told the judge that Malone was suﬀering complications from a double lung transplant and undergoing periodic treatments in New Orleans over next six months.

Corinth, Miss.

Rep’s ‘lynch’ remark part of broad cultural fight JACKSON — Mississippi state Rep. Karl Oliver drew bipartisan condemnation with a recent Facebook post saying Louisiana leaders should be “LYNCHED” for removing Confederate monuEmily ments. But, social media beWagster ing what it is, the white RePettus publican from Winona was also praised by people who Capitol Dome said he stood courageously against political correctness. Oliver’s post was made May 20, after New Orleans pulled down three Confederate monuments and one monument to white supremacy. New Orleans Mayor Mitch Landrieu said in a speech May 19 that the monuments represented “the cult of the Lost Cause,” which sought to “rewrite history, to hide the truth, which is that the Confederacy was on the wrong side of humanity.” “To literally put the Confederacy on a pedestal in our prominent places in honor is an inaccuracy recitation of our full past, it is an affront to our present and it is a bad prescription for our future,” said Landrieu, the white Democratic mayor of a culturally diverse, majority-black city. It’s worth noting that Oliver’s legislative district includes the tiny community of Money, where black teenager Emmett Till was kidnapped and lynched in 1955. In his May 20 Facebook post, Oliver wrote: “The destruction of these monuments, erected in the loving memory of our family and fellow Southern Americans, is both heinous and horrific. If the, and I use this term extremely loosely, ‘leadership’ of Louisiana wishes to, in a Nazi-ish fashion, burn books or destroy historical monuments of OUR HISTORY, they should be LYNCHED!” The freshman lawmaker removed his post after it had been online more than a day and a half, and he issued an apology after a stern phone call from Republican House Speaker Philip Gunn, who also revoked Oliver’s vice chairmanship of the Forestry Committee. “In an effort to express my passion for preserving all historical monuments, I acknowledge the word ‘lynched’ was wrong,” Oliver said. “I am very sorry. It is in no way, ever, an appropriate term. I deeply regret that I chose this word, and I do not condone the actions I referenced, nor do I believe them in my heart.” The American Civil Liberties Union of Mississippi called for an investigation of Oliver. The Mississippi Legislative Black Caucus and the Mississippi NAACP said Oliver should resign. Democratic Sen. Sollie Norwood of Jackson questioned Oliver’s apology. “I think it’s irresponsible for him to apologize for something that he meant,” Norwood said. “There is no place in public office for anyone who embraces that ideology and expresses such deeply demented thoughts.” Rep. Angela Cockerham of Magnolia, who is African-American and one of only two Democratic committee chairmen in the Republican-majority House, said she was “deeply troubled” by Oliver’s post. She added: “As one who works across racial and party lines, it is my prayer that the healing process will continue in our state and that my House and Senate colleagues and I will work to build one Mississippi.” The fight about Confederate symbols is far from over. Mississippi is still divided over its state flag, the last in the nation with the Confederate battle emblem. Alabama Republican Gov. Kay Ivey last week signed a bill to protect longstanding monuments, including those honoring the Confederacy. It’s a safe bet that a similar bill could be filed in Mississippi next year — but if Oliver is the sponsor, the bill could struggle to survive.

Prayer for today Lord Jehovah, all goodness, tenderness, and forbearance that are in my life have come from thee. May I not lose them in self, but by them make possible happiness and endurance for others. Amen.

A verse to share For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! —Romans 5:10

Two views on Facebook: ‘Lynch’ or ‘serve’ OXFORD — Morgan Freeman, celebrated actor and thoughtful person, says forget about it. Mitch Landrieu, mayor of New Orleans, says if there are no markers where lynching took place there should be no monuments to those who fought to preserve slavery and injustice. Mississippi Rep. Karl Oliver, before he apologized for it, said lynching is exactly right for Landrieu and others who “destroy historical monuments of our history.” Who’s right? Or is it better, as some have chosen, to “contextualize,” meaning leaving Old South statues and place names intact and explaining them on carefully worded plaques? Let’s start with Oliver. The first-term Republican from Winona has done little to distinguish himself in the Capitol. He did oﬀer a bill that no state funds could be spent in aid of enforcing any federal firearms law. It died in committee along with eight of the 10 bills bearing his name. Two passed. One thanked law enforcement oﬃcers. The other will allow Grenada County to rent its cells when other public and private jails overflow. To his credit, Gov. Phil Bryant immediately con-

demned Oliver’s call for lynching, which appeared on Facebook. Bryant said Charlie there was Mitchell no room for that kind Columnist of talk on a topic that cries out for civil discourse. Thanks, governor. Another Republican, House Speaker Philip Gunn, stripped Oliver of his vice chairmanship of the Forestry Committee. There was some sentiment that what Oliver really did was give voice to what legions believe but are smart enough to whisper: White history is being ravaged to mollify shiftless blacks and whiny liberals who are never satisfied no matter how much they are given. Perhaps. The real test of outrage will come when and if Oliver seeks re-election. Next, Landrieu. Some labeled him an opportunist, seeking favor in a city where only 32 percent of the people identify, as he does, as being white. Landrieu is also said to have higher political intentions. Putting that aside, though, backed by years of study, discussion and a City Council vote, Landrieu became the point man for re-

moving a memorial obelisk and statutes of Confederate generals Robert E. Lee and P.G.T. Beauregard and President Jeﬀerson Davis. Landrieu, a Democrat, said the removals were not about amending or revising history. He said the statues represent “historical malfeasance” by telling one side. Worse, he said, they continue to brand the city today with the ideals of the failed Confederacy, which he defined as maintaining slavery and white supremacy. The removals in New Orleans — and similar activities everywhere — naturally raise the question of where to draw the line. Jackson Square is New Orleans’ most scenic spot. Presiding is Gen. Andrew Jackson, hero of the Battle of New Orleans and later president of the United States. But Jackson owned slaves for decades, up to 150 when he died. He once advertised a $50 reward for return of a runaway mulatto (who could pass as a free man) plus $10 for every 100 lashes (up to 300) administered to the runaway. His statue stays? Mississippi’s capital is named for Jackson and, tangentially, so is one Mississippi university. How to deal with this? Leaving names and adding explanations is a commend-

able, middle-of-the-road solution — but rarely makes everyone happy. Too, we’re talking thousands of signs. Perhaps that’s what makes the Morgan Freeman approach appealing. For years this icon of entertainment, who lives quietly and adoringly in his native Mississippi, has shocked interviewers with his rejection of Black History Month. He sends questioners reeling when he declines to group his fellow black Americans as “disadvantaged.” Freeman’s view seems to be we don’t get to choose our race, gender, nationality or place of birth and we certainly had no voice in creating the world each of us entered. Everybody has diﬀerent advantages and disadvantages. There may be external factors, but what we do with our lives is up to us. Back to Facebook. Freeman must like this quote from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. because he posted it earlier this year: “Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’” Don’t forget history, but live today.

Is the West breaking up? By the time Air Force One started down the runaway at Naval Air Station Sigonella in Sicily, to bring President Trump home, the Atlantic had grown markedly wider than it was when he flew to Riyadh. In a Munich beer hall Sunday, Angela Merkel confirmed it. Europe must begin to look out for itself, she said, “take our fate into our own hands. ... The times in which we could rely fully on others, they are somewhat over.” Merkel’s apprehensions are understandable. A divorce could be in the cards. During his visit to NATO in Brussels and the G-7 in Sicily, Trump, with both words and body language, revealed his thinking on who are friends and who are freeloaders. Long before arriving, Trump had cheered Brexit, the British decision to quit the EU, and shown a preference for nationalist Marine Le Pen in the French election won handily by Emmanuel Macron. But when it comes to leaders, Trump seems to prefer Deke House to student council types. He has hailed Vladimir Putin as a

“strong ruler” and “very smart.” In Riyadh, Trump declared King Salman a Patrick “wise man.” Buchanan He calls China’s Xi JinColumnist ping “a great guy,” and welcomed Turkish autocrat Recep Tayyip Erdogan to the Oval Oﬃce: “It is a great honor to have you with us.” When Egypt’s President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi, who has imprisoned and killed thousands of the Muslim Brotherhood, came to visit, Trump said, “He’s done a fantastic job in a very diﬃcult situation.” In a phone call, Trump also praised Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte, who has had narcotics dealers gunned down in the streets, for doing an “unbelievable job on the drug problem.” Trump has even found merit in Kim Jong Un, the 33-year-old dictator of North Korea, describing him as a “a pretty smart cookie.” And where Trump was photographed by the Russians grinning broadly with

Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, his confab with Merkel was marked by a seeming reluctance to shake hands. But the disagreements with Europe are deeper than matters of style. Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson have indicated that in dealing with foreign nations, U.S. support for democratic norms and human rights will now take a back seat to strategic interests. In Riyadh, Trump signaled the Sunni King of Bahrain we will no longer be giving him instructions on how to treat his Shiite majority. We’re not “here to lecture,” Trump assured the Arab royals. In Brussels, Trump praised NATO’s decision to back the U.S. war in Afghanistan after 9/11, but did not specifically recommit to Article 5, requiring all NATO nations to treat an attack on one as an attack on all, which NATO allies had wanted to hear. Instead, they got an earful of pure Trump about how they owed back pay for NATO and that only five NATO nations were meeting their obligation to allocate 2 percent of GDP to defense. Merkel seemed to take

this as an implied threat that the U.S commitment to defend Europe from a Russia with one-tenth of NATO-Europe’s GDP may be contingent, and may have a time limit on it. Moreover, France, Britain and Germany appear far more solidly committed to the Iran nuclear deal than are Trump and Congress. A U.S.-NATO collision could come here, and soon. From his rough remarks, Trump sees the Europeans as freeloaders on U.S. defense, laggards on their NATO contributions, and mercantilists who craft policies to run endless trade surpluses at our expense, especially the Germans who are “bad, very bad.” The European half of Trump’s trip should be taken as a fire-bell-in-the-night warning: Shape up, Europe, or you may find yourselves on your own when it comes to the defense of your continent. For we Americans have had about enough. Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of a new book, “Nixon’s White House Wars: The Battles That Made and Broke a President and Divided America Forever.”

Jerry Hart Bynum

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — A memorial service for Jerry Hart Bynum, 84, is set for 4 p.m. Sunday at First Baptist Church in Memphis. Visitation precedes the service at 3 p.m. in the church Welcome Center. A Reception follows the service in the Fellowship Hall. Mr. Bynum was born April 13, 1933, and died May 14, 2017. He faced death with no fear. His strong-willed personality served him well, and he died as he wanted, at home in his own bed! He is survived by his wife of 45 years, Carolyn Middleton Bynum. He is also survived by his brother-inlaw, Tom Middleton; a nephew, Rusty Middleton; a niece, Nikki Rogers (Sean), and their children, Maggie, Johnny, and Rosie. He also leaves his cousin, Jim Clark, of Daphne, Ala. His parents, Jesse and Mollie Bynum of Corinth, and his two brothers, Jesse and Bill, preceded him in death. After graduating from Corinth High School, he received a four-year athletic scholarship from the University of Mississippi to play basketball. He began playing his freshman year and became the team captain his senior year. He also played baseball and was the catcher on the 1956 Rebel club that advanced to

the Final Four at the College World Series in Omaha, Neb. After the Rebels were eliminated, he immediately went into Army basic training and, on completion, was sent to Fort Jackson, S.C. Orders to Korea were cancelled by the post general, a fellow Mississippian, who assigned him to play U.S. Armed Forces basketball and baseball. Leaving the Army, he coached basketball and taught science courses at New Albany and Treadwell Junior High in Memphis. After three years, he returned to Ole Miss on a National Science Foundation grant for graduate study in science. During this time, he decided to enter the School of Pharmacy and received his pharmacy degree in two years. Jerry always felt a great sense of loyalty to the university for the opportunities given him. At age 50, he made a major career change, retiring from pharmacy and becoming a real estate investor. That and the year at New Albany were the happiest of his career. Jerry’s body was donated to the Genesis/MERI Program for scientific research. Memorial contributions may be made to the Church Health Center or the Memphis Botanical Gardens.

WASHINGTON — A top communications aide to President Donald Trump is exiting the White House as the embattled president considers a broader shakeup amid rising anxiety over investigations into his campaign’s contacts with Russia. Fresh oﬀ Trump’s first

oﬃcial trip abroad, White House communications director Michael Dubke announced his resignation Tuesday in what many inside and outside the White House see as the first shoe to drop. A wider overhaul is expected, aimed at more aggressively responding to allegations of Russian meddling in the 2016 election and revelations of possible ties between Trump’s

campaign and Moscow. Dubke said in a statement it had been an honor to serve Trump and “my distinct pleasure to work side by side, day by day with the staﬀ of the communications and press departments.” However, Trump has privately and publicly pinned much of the blame for his administration’s woes on the communications eﬀort. “In terms of messaging, I would give myself a C or a C plus,” Trump said in an interview on Fox News Channel early in his term.

“In terms of achievement, I think I’d give myself an A. Because I think I’ve done great things, but I don’t think I have — I and my people, I don’t think we’ve explained it well enough to the American public.” Trump has long believed that he is his most effective spokesperson and has groused about supporters and aides not defending him vigorously enough. At the same time, he often undermines his staffers, contradicting their public statements and derailing their efforts to stay on topic with inflammatory tweets.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Read the latest story of the Downtown Corinth: From Old to New series this Sunday and find out why so many people are flocking to downtown Corinth to live, work and play.

Age is no barrier for man long in love with neighbor D E A R ABBY: I’m 36, doing very well in business, single and deeply in love with a Abigail 58-year-old She Van Buren woman. has been a neighbor Dear Abby since I was in grade school. She’s petite, pretty, intelligent, cheerful and looks my age. My parents moved to Florida when I turned 27, and I bought their home just so I could be near her. On my 33rd birthday, I begged her to cook for me. We had dinner and too much wine and ended up in bed. We don’t live together, and she often tells me to find a younger woman. I have tried to gift her a car, jewelry, etc., but she has refused them all. Our families are against this. I’m going crazy trying to convince her I love her. When I told her I’ve loved her since middle school, she laughed. My parents say I am insane, though they love her dearly. Am I? Help, please. -- IN LOVE IN CALIFORNIA DEAR IN LOVE: Insane? No. When people are in love, they sometimes think emotionally rather than rationally. The 22-

year difference in your ages may be why your parents are calling you insane. Rather than try to “buy” your neighbor’s love with gifts, try to get her to tell you how she DOES feel about you and about what happened the night she cooked you dinner. If it was only because she had too much to drink, she may be embarrassed that things went as far as they did. If it was because the attraction is mutual, you should explain to her that while it may be unusual, these kinds of relationships can be successful if both parties are mature. Example: The president of France, Emmanuel Macron, and his first lady. DEAR ABBY: I’m a full-time pet and livestock sitter. I work seven days a week, including holidays, sometimes for weeks at a time, in clients’ homes caring for their animals. I have 40 years of care experience, and I’m recommended by every veterinarian in the area. I have worked very hard to build my reputation, and I charge reasonable prices. On occasion, a client wants a “deal” and tries to bargain down my already reasonable fee. It is nearly always attorneys (who also look for a reason to be disappointed after the fact, but fail) or extremely wealthy people. I try hard not to show how insulting their request is, especially

when someone’s front gate costs more than my annual income. Sometimes I’ll bend, but then I kick myself for doing it. (I am working hard to quit doing that.) Why should it cost me money to care for someone else’s animals and home? I need a polite, respectful and definite comeback to decline making deals. -- PET SITTER IN THE SOUTH DEAR PET SITTER: Try this: “I’m the best. My prices are firm. If you’re looking for a bargain, hire someone else. Plenty of people will accept what you’re offering. But remember, you get what you pay for.” DEAR ABBY: In the midst of planning my wedding, I got pregnant. My family wants to plan for a combination bridal/baby shower, but my mother thinks I should only have a baby shower because I will receive gifts at my wedding. What is your take on this? -- UNSURE IN TEXAS DEAR UNSURE: I agree with your mother for the reason she gave you. You will need baby things in the near future. Your wedding will effectively be your wedding shower. 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). At some point the barriers you erect to protect yourself become energy inefficient. They cost too much emotionally. They become exhausting to maintain. You’ll drop the defense. Maybe you didn’t need it in the first place. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’ll create something today, and rather mindlessly at that. It’s a gift to be able to float above your thoughts. Perhaps that’s the best, purest way. There will be nothing to interfere with your process. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Once you become concerned with the result, your energy changes. If you’re in a professional setting, the difference will be better. If you’re in a social setting, the difference will be worse. CANCER (June 22-July 22). There are those who like to dance and will do it no matter who is watching. You’ve been that person before, and you will be again. You’re edging toward it, drawn to the music.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s not necessary to achieve anything beyond what you already have. Being alive is the gift. The rest is icing for the ego. Whatever you do to enjoy being alive today is good. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You don’t need to go anywhere for the beauty. The beauty is in how you see it. The truth you seek is the same. You’ll find the truth and you’ll find it right where you are. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you give your mind the chance, it will make things much more serious than they need to be. Employ your body. There’s a wisdom there that will take over the situation once you get moving. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). If you want to know how a thing is, you have to forget about how you think it is. While you’re at it, lose your ideas about how you want it to be. Look at a thing as though you were not the one looking.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It takes no special level of devotion or goodness for the river to obey the natural laws affecting the earth. Without the least bit of effort, it flows home to the sea. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ve followed many lines of reason, none of them pointing to the answer you want. Perhaps what’s needed is an unreasonable approach. Switch off your head and let your inner knowing have a go at this. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Walk beside the one who knows the path and you, too, will know the path. Don’t expect yourself to pick up the route in a day, though. Repetition will be key. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Today’s doubts will have a real limiting effect on what happens tomorrow. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, if the doubts are founded. But hope will leave you more options. So make sure you’re not being overly pessimistic.

Thornberry captures NCAA Golf title Ole Miss Sports Information

SUGAR GROVE, Ill. — National champion. Ole Miss Rebel. Sophomore Braden Thornberry fired a final round 1-under 71 to capture the NCAA Arnold Palmer Individual National Championship at the Rich Farms Harvest Golf Club Monday. Thornberry cruised to a four shot victory over Arkansas’ Mason Overstreet with a four round total of 11-under par. “It means a lot to be the champion,” Thornberry said. “It was a really special week. Really just from the start, got oﬀ to a great start, 6-under through the first 12 of the week, that got me started oﬀ on the right foot. The lead kept kind of creeping up. I tried to just stay in position until today and play a good round, and I was right there.” “I think it validates every-

thing that we’ve said since Coach (Kyle) Ellis and I got the job a few years back,” said Ole Miss head coach Chris Malloy. “All I heard was you couldn’t win a national championship at Ole Miss, and we’re going to go to this other school because we want to win national championships and we want to get on the Tour. He’s proven you can do that here. “I think for Braden, the confidence piece is huge,” Malloy added. “What it does for him and the rest of his teammates, it will help boost those guys up to not only get the same trophy next year but get that team trophy, as well. The Olive Branch, Mississippi native erased a three shot deficit heading into fourth-and-final round to win Ole Miss’ first golf national title. Texas’ Scottie

Scheﬄer, who opened the day with a three stroke advantage, stumbled out of the gate with a bogey and triple bogey to crack the door for Thornberry. The sophomore quickly seized control of the leaderboard with a birdie on the par-3 third and an eagle on at the 376-yard sixth to take a four shot lead heading to the back nine. An SEC-Big 12 battle on the front nine transformed into an all-SEC aﬀair at the turn. A bogey on the par-4 10th cut Thornberry’s lead to three strokes, but he quickly bounced back with three straight pars. A bogey on the par 4 14th cut Thornberry’s lead to just two strokes over Overstreet, but he responded with a solid par on the 15th while Overstreet two putted for a bogey to extend his margin back to three strokes. Back-to-back pars on Nos.

16 and 17 and a birdie on the 18th clinched the national championship for Thornberry with a final total of 11 under 66-71-69-71—277. His opening round 66 tied the Rich Harvest Farms collegiate record and his four shot victory was the largest since 2006. He joins a list of former NCAA individual champions including Ben Crenshaw, Luke Donald, Tom Kite, Justin Leonard, Phil Michelson, Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods. “It’s cool knowing the past champions of this tournament, so to add your name to that obviously means a lot,” Thornberry said. “I’m just a huge fan of just going out there and having fun. I think a lot of people get too caught up in swings instead of just going out there and playing Please see GOLF | 11A

German exchange student always a Bobcat BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

McNairy Central has enjoyed meeting several exchange students over the years and it is never easy to say goodbye. The latest exchange student has the right idea of just not saying goodbye. Vivi Leverenz is going back to her home in Germany on Wednesday but plans on coming back to McNairy County for Christmas and again next spring. “I am not going to say goodbye, but see you later,” said Leverenz. “I’m so totally sad about leaving here. I have enjoyed it so much here because I feel like I’m part of the Maxedon family.” Vivi has one older sister Celina (18) and her parents are Peter and Andrea Leverenz. She has Skyped with and sent them texts while living in Selmer. Her home is in Oldenburg, Germany.

She has been living with Byron and Stephanie Maxedon since arriving on Jan. 14. Vivi has blended with the Maxedon’s children Dylan (14), Hayle (12), Caden (5), and Cace (almost 15 months) as if they were her real family. “Vivi has been such a blessing to us and we are going to miss her,” said Stephanie. “We have such a strong relationship with her that Byron and I feel like she is one of our children.” Leverenz is just coming oﬀ an emotional week spent at the softball state tournament with her Lady Bobcat teammates. She had never played softball before coming to America. “I was so disappointed we did not win the state tournament,” said Leverenz. “Our team played so good and I was upset we lost. We all cried as a team after the game.”

She bravely addressed her teammates after the tournament to express her love for them and to thank them for accepting her as a teammate and as a friend. Caitlyn Bodiford and Paige Mask were two of her best friends and softball teammates. Her other close friends were Shelby Roy and Daisy Murry. “I cried when thanking my team for the way they accepted me on their team. I was not very good at softball, but they were always there to encourage me and supported me,” commented Lorenz. “Coach Mell (Surratt) put me in and I got to score two runs this season. I was so happy to score those runs.” Surratt made a special impact on Vivi over the last four months. She would ride with the coach to several of the tournaments and that helped them bond. “She is a very encouraging coach. She tried to teach me

how to play the game and really tried to motivate me,” remarked Leverenz. “I was really close to my teammates and I am going to miss all of them.” When Vivi finishes primary school in Germany she plans to return and live with the Maxedon’s so she can attend college in America. A primary school for gifted students in Germany is for grades 5-12. She was classified as a sophomore at MCHS. She began the process of coming to America by writing a letter to her host organization. They placed her with the Maxedon family. “Byron and Stephanie have been a perfect host family,” said Leverenz. “I thought it would be tough to join a new family and make new friends, but they have made it easier for me.” Vivi has gone to church Please see BOBCAT | 11A

Predators confident as Game 2 looms The Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — The winning team went nearly two full periods without a shot. The hottest goaltender in the playoﬀs was only tested 11 times in 58 minutes — and lost. No wonder Pittsburgh Penguins coach Mike Sullivan described his team’s 5-3 victory over Nashville in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Final as “bizarre.” And that doesn’t even include the catfish tossed onto the ice by a Predators fan at PPG Paints Arena in the middle of a second period. The fish that splatted on the Nashville blue line earned the thrower three misdemeanor charges and also came as close to Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne as anything the Penguins managed during 20 minutes in which the highest-scoring team in the league couldn’t even muster a single shot. “It’s not always pretty,” Sullivan said Tuesday. “We don’t get points for style. But what I love about our team is that we find ways to win, we compete.” True, though for the majority of Game 1, the competition was pretty one-sided. The Predators controlled the pace

and the puck, just not the scoreboard. It left the guys from “Smashville” in a new position for the first time since they began their mad dash to the final a month ago: chaser instead of chasee as Game 2 looms on Wednesday night. “Now we face a little adversity,” said defenseman Ryan Ellis, who scored the first Stanley Cup Final goal in team history. “We see what kind of group and character we have to bounce back.” The Predators haven’t dropped consecutive games in the postseason and their four previous losses were pretty easy to explain. What happened on Monday night was not. The only area where Nashville wasn’t markedly better than the defending Stanley Cup champions is the only one that really matters. “Everything was there that we liked but the result,” Ellis said. Ellis described the Predators as more disappointed than mad. You can probably add baﬄed to the list. Nashville became the first team since the NHL began tracking the stat in 1957 to hold a team without a shot for an entire period during the Stanley Cup Final.

It’s just the first hurdle in getting them to campus and seeing what we’re about.

PITTSBURGH — A Tennessee man is calling himself a “dumb redneck with a bad idea” after police filed charges against him for throwing a catfish onto the rink in Pittsburgh during the opening of the Stanley Cup Final. Police say 36-year-old Jacob Waddell threw the

dead fish over the glass surrounding the rink on Monday night during the Nashville Predators-Pittsburgh Penguins game. He was ejected and charged with disorderly conduct, possessing instruments of crime and disrupting meetings or processions. Waddell, of Nolens-

Climbing roses are great for state climates I wrote earlier about my 40year struggle with growing roses. But during that time, there was one rose that was a great performer for me: a climbing rose called Blaze. Before horticulture became Gary my career, I Bachman had no idea that plants often had Southern a colorful hisGardening tory, and I was fascinated that Blaze had been in the trade since 1932. I loved the way this monster completely filled in a blank brick wall, as I understood something of how vertical height creates interest in the landscape. But I didn’t like the annual spring pruning because I never could find gloves thick enough to protect my hands from the thorns. Now, let’s fast forward to the present day and my growing appreciation of the aesthetic

Although common in Southern landscapes, the Lady Banks rose dates back to the late 1790s and came from China. benefits roses bring to our landscapes and gardens. Around the time I was developing my horticultural education and skills, I moved to the Southeast and became familiar with another climber that didn’t have a thorny issue: Lady

Banks Rose. This is an old rose that many assume has Southern roots because it is so common in our landscapes. However, in trade, it actually dates back to the late 1790s or earlier in China as a single-form variety. We most frequently see in our

Southern gardens the yellow, double-form Rosa banksiae lutescens form of Lady Banks, which was first discovered and introduced in 1824. Despite Lady Banks’ genteel sounding name, this plant can vigorously sprawl and spread, seeming to thrive on neglect (which is one of my favorite plant attributes). It’s best allowed to grow on fences, trellises and arbors, or as an espalier against a wall. Lady Banks is a long-lived plant, and it’s not uncommon to see it growing at long-gone homesteads. Another climbing rose that I’m liking and learning more about has a more recent history, and that is the Peggy Martin rose. I had the pleasure of meeting Peggy Martin herself earlier this year and learning the amazing story of her namesake rose, also called the hurricane rose. Peggy’s family lived in Plaquemines Parish when Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast. After spending two

weeks under 20 feet of water, this rose was the only survivor of Peggy’s rose garden. It quickly became a symbol of the spirit of perseverance. The rose produces spring clusters of small, pink flowers. After establishment, it will rebloom in the fall. This rose is very popular because of its history and landscape performance. There are nurseries you can order from online, but don’t be surprised if availability is limited. You may have to get on a waiting list -behind me, of course. Both of these climbing roses have few pests and diseases to worry about, and they tolerate our Mississippi seasons. The fact that both roses are called climbers is a little misleading, as they sprawl more than actually climb by themselves. Gardeners must tie and train them to grow up and over a wall, fence or trellis. While they are tolerant of dry Mississippi summers, these roses appreciate supplemental irrigation during these periods.

Alcorn County FFA Chapters are pleased with the announcement that three members are being recognized as North District Stars for their supervised agricultural experience (SAE) programs, and will be competing at the upcoming Mississippi State FFA Convention to become a Mississippi FFA State Star in their category. The Star Farmer Award recognizes outstanding achievement in production agriculture and active participation in FFA. Matthew Lambert’s agricultural experience program consists of greenhouse production. He operated his own greenhouse, at home, which consisted of bedding plants and vegetables. In FFA, Matthew has served as chapter president and competed in Opening and Closing, forestry, Public Speaking and Food Service. Matthew is a member of the Alcorn Career and Technical Center FFA Chapter and will be attending Northeast Mississippi Community College this fall majoring in Biology.

Alex mows and weed eats, and was recently able to upgrade to a new lawnmower allowing him to serve customers quicker with a higher quality cut. Alex is a member of the Kossuth FFA Chapter where he is quite active. A junior, Alex is currently the chapter Sentinel, and running for chapter oﬃce next year. He has been a member of the state champion livestock judging team, and a top three poultry judging team at state. Like Ben, Alex is a member of the parliamentary procedure team that will be competing for a state championship in June at State FFA Convention. Upon graduation, Alex hopes to pursue a degree in agriculture engineering or poultry science. Congratulations to these three individuals for being named north district FFA stars, and best of luck in the State FFA Stars competition, June 5-7, at the 84th Annual Mississippi FFA State Convention.

Initially Ben was hired to assist with counting and reconciling yearend inventory, however, the job has grown to include organizing product displays, stocking shelves, and displaying pricing. With the busy spring rush Ben can be found on the front counter greeting customers, answering questions, and ringing up sales. Ben is very active in the Kossuth FFA Chapter. A few of his highlights include: Chapter Vice President, member of state champion livestock judging and farm business management teams, and chair of the parliamentary procedure team competing for a state title at upcoming state FFA convention. After graduation Ben is already registered at Mississippi State, accepted into Shackouls Honors College, with the goal of a degree in mathmatics. The Star in Agribusiness owns and operates

Some of the most striking gardens aren’t a riot of multiple colors but a carefully curated assemblage of hues. Using foliage and flowers, gardeners can create drama and artistry. A lake of blue salvia, perhaps. A swath of feathery green grass. The idea is to mass-plant so the color becomes a living

brush stroke along the landscape. Architect Peter Marino used the technique on his 12-acre property in Southampton, New York. Among the apple orchards, art objects and hundreds of evergreens, his garden includes a “color wheel,” with purple flowers at the north end, pink at the south, and red and mixed hues to the east and west.

Yellow is oﬀ on its own. “The yellow garden is a separate, one-acre ‘room,’ bordered by European chestnuts and George Peabody arborvitae,” Marino writes in his new book, “The Garden of Peter Marino” (Rizzoli). “I don’t care for yellow flowers mixed with other colors, so I planted them all together in what is intended to be one big explosion of color.”

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I am 44 years old and have been dating a 48-year-old man for 21/2 years. I met him three weeks after he got out of a 16-year relationship. There are some things I need help with. For most of the time we have been together, he has been talking to other women — sometimes his ex-girlfriend — on Facebook. He has told these other women that he loves them and misses them; he sends them heart and kissing emoticons. He “likes” their pictures on Facebook and leaves comments — for example, “Looking good!” — along with heart emojis. The thing is that he barely ever says these things to me. I see him only on weekends, and we have takeout and watch a movie. He barely ever holds my hand, and our sex life has all but stopped. He says he’s too tired. He makes me feel as if I am the one in the wrong. He thinks it’s perfectly acceptable to talk to all these women when he says about four words to me a day. He holds actual conversations with others. I can’t tell you how many times I have fallen asleep beside him crying, and either he doesn’t notice or he doesn’t care. I just can’t handle this anymore. Should I just let him go and move on? If I did, I would most likely be alone.

Dear Annie I am an amputee with not a lot of friends. I love him with all my heart, but I am tired of being walked all over. What should I do? — Confused in Small Town in Pennsylvania Dear Confused: You know exactly what you should do. But before we address the issue of leaving this louse, I want to encourage you to work on your self-esteem and make friends. Get involved in your community. Check Meetup, a website that connects people through shared interests, to see what clubs are in your town, or even start your own! Now, back to the louse. This man does not deserve the love and aﬀection you’ve given him. I promise you that it feels much better to be single than to be with someone who doesn’t love you back. With time, you will find another mate. And do not sell yourself short in that regard. There is someone out there who will make you fall asleep smiling instead of crying.

Dear Annie: This is in response to “Crybaby,” who cries at everything. I have the opposite problem. I never cry. I feel things deeply, and I well up, but I never spill over. It might be an overestimate to say that I cry once a year. There have been times — e.g., funerals and when a sad story is being told — when tears have been the appropriate response and I have been the only one not visibly crying. It makes me feel as if I am perceived as cold and unfeeling, when that is not the case. It is just that I have a strongly developed resolve not to cry, for some unknown reason. “Crybaby’s” problem embarrasses her, but my problem embarrasses me! — Dry-Eyed but Not Unfeeling Dear Dry-Eyed: I’ve received many responses to the column with “Crybaby’s” letter. But until yours, all of them had been from fellow criers who wanted to let her know she isn’t alone. Your perspective may help those excessive criers to feel thankful for their tears. You might want to talk with an ophthalmologist about your problem, in case it has something to do with the functioning of your tear ducts.
