City gets street, drainage upgrades BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

(Editor’s note: This is the first of a series taking a look at the”state of the city.”) With Corinth’s elected leadership heading into the final few months of the current term, the city government has seen a number of projects completed during the last few years and

others still coming to fruition. Dave Huwe, director of community development and planning, recently completed a “state of the city” overview of items completed and items still on the burner.

Street department With much of Corinth’s 175

miles of roadway under the care of the street division of the street department, the city recently added several pieces of equipment to allow the street workers to do in-house repairs. A mini excavator, asphalt roller, road sweeper and asphalt zipper were purchased for about $150,000. Milling and paving projects

have been in progress with funds from a $1.6 million general obligation bond issue. Other street related projects completed or upcoming include: ■ Replacement of the Oakland School Road bridge — $229,920 ■ Fillmore Street improvements from Childs to Main —

$205,700 ($134,577 MDOT grant) ■ Proper Street improvements from Cruise to Young — $279,100 ($223,280 MDOT grant) ■ Sidewalks around Corinth National Cemetery perimeter — $100,500 grant from ComPlease see UPGRADES | 6

Church begins week-long effort BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Tate Baptist Church Cares. Because He Cares. Members of the church congregation began a week-long ministry in the community Monday. Dressed in their lime green shirts with “Because He Cares” on the back, volunteers

with “Tate Baptist Cares” went to work early at a pair of Alcorn County Schools and other places around Corinth. “We have people who have taken a week of vacation to be part of this,” said church pastor Bro. Mickey Trammel. Twelve teams were comprised as the church took on projects

throughout the community. Each team leader was asked to come up with their own projects to be done this week. “Tate Baptist Cares” started over the weekend. Some 25 volunteers with the church did some mowing, weed eating Please see TATE | 2

Jennifer Marshall has been through the fire without getting burned. The Corinth Elementary School first grade teacher has used a painful experience to glorify God and help others in her book “Out Came The Son.” “God has done a lot in me over the last seven years to be able to write the book,” said Marshall. “I couldn’t have written it any other time until two years ago.” “Out Came The Son” – published by BorderStone Press – deals with the death of Jennifer and Jason Marshall’s son, Pruitt, nine years ago. “We found out 20 weeks into the pregnancy Pruitt had a genetic condition not compatible with life,” said the first-time author. “Our world fell apart when we found out.” Pruitt was born three weeks early and was able to spend five days with his parents before passing away. “Out Came The Son” is an honest look at the struggle for faith during suffering,” said John Nix, President of Vertical

Purpose Ministries. “There are so many people who mistakenly think one must go through life without questions or doubts … Jennifer shows us through her own personal journey that doubts and faith are not mutually exclusive.” Each of the 17 chapters of the book are titled as board games such as Chutes and Ladders, Connect Four, Duck, Duck, Goose and so on. Around 30 Bible verses are also found throughout the publication. “My hope is to share my story and praise God through the pain,” said Marshall. “The ultimate goal is to glorify Him.” “It is important for every Christian to learn they are not exempt from disappointments, tragedy and grief,” added Jerry Rankin, President Emeritus of International Mission Board, SBC. “Not everyone goes through the loss of a child as Jennifer, but her testimony is applicable to all … “Out Came The Son” is a powerful testimony of discovering God’s glory through the most painful experiences.” Jason, youth director of Please see BOOK | 2

Buddy Bench Judge sides for elementary schools by donating to friendship movement For the Daily Corinthian

McNairy County Elementary Schools received an unexpected blessing recently as Judge Van McMahan made a special donation to benefit the children. He announced his intention to donate a “Buddy Bench” to every elementary school in McNairy County. Having three children of his own in the McNairy School system, he realized their was a need and wished to fill it. After learning of the “Buddy Bench” movement, the judge decided to take action and help foster friendships on playgrounds across the county. The movement began in 2013 after a second grader saw a picture of a “Buddy Bench” on the playground of a German School. His dream was to one day have

such a bench at his own school, Roundtown Elementary in York, Penn. The importance of the bench would be taught to students and teachers alike. When a child was feeling left out, he or she could go sit on the bench and other children would come talk and play with them. Once a “Buddy Bench” was installed at his school, the local newspaper ran an article about it. The article captured media attention and the movement quickly spread across the United States. It was even featured on the Today Show. Now, Buddy Benches are being installed on school playgrounds across the nation. Through his generous bench donations, Judge McMahan is helping spread the message of kindness and inclusion.

Corinth Elementary School teacher Jennifer Marshall has penned the book “Out Came The Son” to help others who are dealing with the loss of a child and to glorify God.

BOOK CONTINUED FROM 1

First Baptist Church in Corinth, and Jennifer Marshall have two children today. Their son, Peyton is 13 while daughter Presley is 11. “My prayer is the book is a message of hope and it

points people to the Lord,” said Jennifer. “I hope they see the Son is still there during the rainy days.” “Out Came The Son” is available on Amazon. Cost is $10. Books will also be available during a book signing on July 31 at Ginger’s.

and cleaning up at Forrest Memorial Park. “They have someone to come in once a month since the state took over the cemetery,” said Trammel. “After Saturday, we have decided to adopt the project and come in behind the person who had been hired.” Church members also gave away water and did face painting for kids during the weekend’s Slugburger Festival in downtown. “Team leaders really came up with some nice projects,” added the pastor. “There is something for people of every age to do.” Trammel, his wife Lianne and Tom Kennedy were busy at Alcorn Central Elementary School on Monday. The trio were scraping paint off parts of the building’s exterior for repainting. Around 10 more church goers were also busy painting three classrooms at Biggersville High School. “The Bible tells us to help others,” said team leader Brandon Kennedy. “I had planned to take a week of vacation last week to go with the youth to World Changers, but several road blocks brought me here where God wanted me.” Kennedy was one of three volunteers who took off from work to help during the week. “My heart is in missions and I like the community projects,” said Kennedy, who had around six young helpers. “I want them (younger kids) to see it’s important to help others.” “We are here to be a

Tonight and Wednesday night the church plans to host a fish fry for firemen, policemen, deputies and other emergency workers. Cleaning of city properties and a community movie night have also been planned for the week. “I love what we are

Sunday night team leaders and workers will get a chance to share reports from the week. Trammel hopes teams and Sunday School classes at Tate will take over the role of doing something once a month around the community. The church plans to continue to blitz the area one week every July. “We are the ones getting the greatest blessing out of this,” said Trammel. “We are never more like Jesus than when we are serving others.”

Today in history Today is Tuesday, July 15, the 196th day of 2014. There are 169 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On July 15, 1964, Sen. Barry M. Goldwater of Arizona was nominated for president by the Republican national convention in San Francisco.

On this date: In 1799, French soldiers in Egypt discovered the Rosetta Stone, which proved instrumental in deciphering ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs. In 1870, Georgia became the last Confederate state to be readmitted to the Union. Manitoba entered confederation as the fifth Canadian province. In 1916, Boeing Co., originally known as Pacific Aero Products Co., was founded in Seattle. In 1932, President Herbert Hoover announced he was slashing his own salary by 20 percent, from $75,000 to $60,000 a year; he also cut Cabinet members’ salaries by 15 percent, from $15,000 to $12,750 a year. In 1948, President Harry S. Truman was nominated for another term of office by the Democratic national convention in Philadelphia. In 1954, a prototype of the Boeing 707, the model 367-80, made its maiden flight from Renton Field south of Seattle. In 1971, President Richard Nixon delivered a televised address in which he announced that he had accepted an invitation to visit the People’s Republic of China. In 1979, President Jimmy Carter delivered his “malaise” speech in which he lamented what he called a “crisis of confidence” in America. In 1983, eight people were killed when a suitcase bomb planted by Armenian extremists exploded at the Turkish Airlines counter at Orly Airport in Paris. In 1992, Arkansas Gov. Bill Clinton was nominated for president at the Democratic national convention in New York. In 2010, after 85 days, BP stopped the flow of oil from a blown-out well in the Gulf of Mexico using a 75-ton cap lowered onto the wellhead earlier in the week. Ten years ago: President George W. Bush signed into law a measure imposing mandatory prison terms for criminals who used identity theft in committing terrorist acts and other offenses. Five years ago: A Russian-made Iranian jetliner carrying 168 people crashed after taking off from Tehran, killing everyone aboard. One year ago: Two days after a Florida jury acquitted George Zimmerman in the death of Trayvon Martin, Attorney General Eric Holder called the killing a “tragic, unnecessary shooting,” and said the Justice Department would follow “the facts and the law” as it reviewed evidence to see whether federal criminal charges were warranted.

NEMCC gets grant from MDOT for upgrades BOONEVILLE, Miss. — Construction of new sidewalks and crosswalks and renovation of current sidewalks that adjoin Northeast Mississippi Community College’s campus to the Booneville City Park is scheduled to begin in the spring of 2015 thanks to a grant awarded to the college by the Mississippi Department of Transportation. At its regularly scheduled June Board of Trustees meeting, Northeast president Dr. Johnny L. Allen informed the

Board of the approved $881,000 grant, which requires a 20 percent match to install additional lighting. “We take great pride in providing a safe and secure campus environment for our students and guests,” Allen said. “ This grant will allow us to improve pedestrian safety for those who use the sidewalks on our campus as well as the walking trails, softball and baseball fields at Booneville City Park.” In addition to the

lighting, new sidewalks and crosswalks will be constructed along Cunningham Boulevard and Coach Billy Ward Drive. A new crosswalk will also be created on North Third St. linking the campus to the park. Northeast’s director of finance Chris Murphy will serve as the project liaison for the college. “The TAP (Transportation Alternative Project) grant awarded to Northeast by the Mississippi Department of Transportation will allow the

college to provide upgrades to its infrastructure and provide a safer corridor along Coach Billy Ward Drive, connecting our campus to the Booneville City Park and its amenities,” Murphy explained. “This grant will not only enhance the aesthetics of boulevard area, but provide a much needed upgrade to campus sidewalks and lighting so our health-conscious students and staff can have smooth, safe pathways for walking or jogging on

campus that connect to the Booneville City Park Walking Trail. Also, as part of this project, crosswalks along Cunningham Boulevard will be upgraded and/or added for safer pedestrian crossing and handicap access.” According to Travis G. Wampler, district LPA coordinator with MDOT, the majority of the funds have were provided by MDOT and the Federal Highway Administration through the Transportation Alternative Project program.

Charter board considers hiring executive director The Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi’s Charter School Authorizer Board could hire its first executive director next month after discussing applications in closed session last week. Board members say they received 38 applications from as far away as Hawaii, and voted to interview finalists at their August meeting. No names of finalists were disclosed during the meeting. Until now, the

five board members, with the help of consultants, have been running the agency. Mississippi lawmakers in 2013 created the board when they passed an expanded law allowing charter schools — public schools run by private groups that agree to meet certain standards in exchange for less regulation. The board also voted to start the second cycle of applications after approv-

ing one charter school in the first round. They say they plan to call for applications on July 15, with applicants submitting letters announcing their intent to apply on Aug. 15. Full applications would be due Sept. 15, with the board voting on applicants in December. This time, the board will require applicants to prove their eligibility when submitting letters of intent, instead of when they submit full applica-

Five properties added to register The Associated Press

JACKSON — A Mississippi turn-of-the-century car dealership, African American cemetery, two public schools, and a historic district are now on the National Register of Historic Places. The Department of Interior recently approved the listings on the recommendation of the Mississippi National Register Review Board. The Christian and Brough Building, one of the first automobile dealerships in Vicksburg, was built in 1905 by businessmen John Christian and Knight Brough. Their business began as a carriage and wagon manufacturing and repair shop but as interest in automobiles grew they expanded

their inventory to include Franklin, Nash, Packard, and Studebaker motorized vehicles. Located east of downtown, the Starkville Colored Cemetery was used by the African American community in Starkville from the late 1800s to the mid-1950s. The oldest marker found to date memorializes Jimmy Cooper, who died on June 21, 1882, at the age of sixteen. The Meridian Senior High School and Junior College in Lauderdale County was built north of downtown in 1937 in response to Meridian’s growing population and was the first municipal junior college in Mississippi. The campus ranges in architectural styles

from the Stripped Classic style of the administration building to the Art Moderne Ross Collins Vocational Building. Hartley Peavey, founder of Peavey Electronics, attended the vocational center. The high school is still in use today. Completed in 1931 the (old) Waveland Elementary School in Hancock County served the community as a school until it was damaged by Hurricane Camille in 1969. After the Tudor Revival building was repaired it reopened as the Waveland Civic Center in 1972. The auditorium was used for community theater programs and classrooms for meeting rooms. It also served as a senior citizen’s center.

tions. In the first application period this spring, the board disqualified a number of applicants for not being federally certified nonprofit groups. The board is still negotiating its contract with ReImagine Prep, the school it has approved to open in Jackson. That school is scheduled to open in fall 2015. The board appointed a committee to work out the contract, which is supposed to include academ-

ic performance standards the school will have to meet in order to get its contract renewed after five years. ReImagine Prep will be run by RePublic Schools, which currently has two schools in Nashville, Tennessee, and plans to open a third this fall. RePublic plans to open in a building owned by New Horizon Ministries, one of Jackson’s largest churches, with 440 students in grades 5-8.

The Gospel And You To the Christian, the gospel of Christ is something special. The gospel of Christ contains (1) facts to be believed (I Corinthians 15:14), (2) commands to be obeyed Mark (Mark 16:16; 11) ; Hebrews 5:8-9), (3) promises to be enjoyed (Mark 16:16; Acts 3:38), and (4) threats to be feared (Mark 16:16; II Thesalonians 1:7-9). The gospel presupposes our most serious thoughts, words and deeds, and is to be shared with all other human beings everywhere. We ask, What are you going to do with the gospel? Will you believe and obey the gospel? Or, will you trample its marvelous message under your feet? After obeying the ﬁrst steps of the gospel, will you sincerely try to exemplify its transforming power in your daily life? Do you have a burning desire to share this great and wondrous treasure (Romans 1:14-18) with the lost of your family and friends? Long ago, in the days of Jeremiah the prophet, there were those who wanted the voice of God silenced; they were tired of hearing, and being reminded of, God’s holy word. Jeremiah, like all faithful teachers and preachers, sometimes became disheartened and discouraged because of constant criticism, and thus felt (?) like quitting; but there was a driving force within him that made such a thing impossible. He wrote: “And if I say, I will not make mention of him, nor speak anymore in his name, then there is in my heart as it were a burning ﬁre shut up in my bones, and I am weary with the fore bearing, and I cannot contain” (Jeremiah 20:7-11). We suggest to all tired and weary soldiers of the cross to remember Jeremiah, and to keep on, keeping on! The apostle Paul speaks of being a debtor to all men (Romans 1:14-17). It is because of this debt that Paul spent his life in seeking to convert others to Christ. As Christians in the eight decade of the twentieth century, we cannot hold the gospel to ourselves a hidden treasure; we must sound it abroad to every creature under heaven (Colossians 1:6, 23; Romans 10:18(. Surely, with all our modern means of communication and transportation, we can do as well as our early brethren who had no such advantages! At home and abroad, we should use radio, television, the printed page, and personal presentation to reach the masses of lost people. Do we believe the Holy Scriptures? What is the predicament of a person without Christ? Where the gospel has not gone, there is no remedy for sin. Let it be recognized that there are at least three sobering facts regarding sin: Sin is real; sin grows; and sin, if allowed to continue in one’s life. Will surely bring destruction and eternal death (James 1:13-15: Romans 3:23; 6:23) The motives and incentives of the gospel can lead sinful men to turn away from drunkenness and malice, adultery and murder, uncontrolled tongues and tempers, and thus help us to live good and decent lives (Galatians 6:7-9; Titus 2:11-12). Hence, the highest standard of living ever envisioned for humanity is set forth in the gospel of Christ. The Eastern religious (of India, China and Japan) cannot begin to be compared (for excellence) with the gospel of Christ (II Corinthians 4: 1-7). This writer believes that all sensible people desire the kind of life pictured in the Holy Bible. We urge our readers to obey the gospel of Christ today. Tomorrow may be too late. Jesus died upon the Old Rugged Cross for you. How tragic it will be for you to go into eternity without God and without hope (Ephesians 2:11-16). Today, now, without delay, respond to the demands of Jesus Christ.

Corinth, Miss.

Lawsuits and impeachment Whenever Democrats are in real trouble politically, the Republicans seem to come up with something new that distracts the public’s attention from the Democrats’ problems. Who says Republicans Thomas are not compassionate? Sowell With public opinion polls showing President Obama’s Columnist sinking approval rate, in the wake of his administration’s multiple fiascoes and scandals -- the disgraceful treatment of veterans who need medical care, the Internal Revenue Service coverups, the tens of thousands of children flooding across our open border -- Republicans have created two new distractions that may yet draw attention away from the Democrats’ troubles. From the Republican establishment, Speaker of the House John Boehner has announced plans to sue Barack Obama for exceeding his authority. And from the Tea Party wing of the Republicans, former Governor Sarah Palin has called for impeachment. Does President Obama deserve to be sued or impeached? Yes! Is there a snowball’s chance in hell that either the lawsuit or an impeachment will succeed? No! Barack Obama’s repeated disregard of the laws that he is supposed to follow, and his blatantly changing these laws passed by Congress, are a threat to the whole Constitutional form of government, on which all our freedoms depend. Once a president -- any president -- can create his own laws unilaterally, we are on our way to becoming a banana republic, where arbitrary rule from the top replaces representative government by “we the people.” Why not sue Barack Obama then, or impeach him? For the simplest of all reasons: Neither of these actions is going to do anything to stop Obama, or even discredit him -- and both can create a distraction that draws attention away from the Democrats’ disasters. Either the lawsuit or an impeachment -- or both -- can hurt the Republicans, by making it look like they are playing Mickey Mouse politics during an election year. President Obama is already making a joke out of Speaker Boehner’s threatened lawsuit by saying, “So sue me!” Courts don’t like to get involved in cases where one branch of government is suing another -- and the Supreme Court does not have to take any case that it does not want to take. Even a lower court can throw out Boehner’s lawsuit as a political issue that does not belong in court. Then it will be the Republicans who will have egg on their faces. As for impeachment, the House of Representatives can impeach any president they want to. But an impeachment is essentially just an indictment that leaves it up to the Senate to decide whether to vote to remove the president from office. So long as the Democrats control the Senate, impeachment of Barack Obama is guaranteed to lose. And this too would leave the Republicans with egg on their faces during an election year. The political fate of the Republican Party is not something that those of us who are not Republicans need to worry about. If they want to shoot themselves in the foot again, so be it. But all Americans have to worry -- and worry big time -- about the fate of this country if Republicans blow their chances of taking control of the Senate. This year’s elections -- especially the Senate elections -- can decide the fate of this country for a long time to come. That is why Republicans’ launching of foredoomed symbolic actions like lawsuits and impeachment is such an irresponsible self-indulgence. When the country is at a historic crossroads is not the time for futile gestures like this, which can create bigger disasters than we already have. (Daily Corinthian columnist Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305. His website is www.tsowell.com.)

Prayer for today Eternal God, help me to honor my life; and may I realize, whether I select good or bad, much or little, the harvesting is for eternity. Grant that I may not make my life accumulate gold and grandeur, and laden it with much spending; but may I strive and love what thou dost love, and make my life worthy of my labor. Amen.

For Mississippi, 9 miles is the limit BY JACK ELLIOTT JR. Capitol Dome

JACKSON — Since July 2013, Mississippi has claimed its state waters extend nine miles south into the Gulf of Mexico. The federal government refuses to recognize the declaration, standing by a 1960 U.S. Supreme Court decision that determined the offshore boundary for Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama was three miles out. The federal government also has not recognized Louisiana’s 2011 declaration of a nine-mile limit. At stake is Gulf states’ control of lucrative fishing rights and revenue from oil and gas production in nearoffshore waters. Mississippi’s congressional delegation has been seeking to force federal recognition of the nine-mile limit for recreational fisheries management. Republican Sen. Thad Cochran proposed an amendment that would do so through a wideranging bill that focuses on hunting, fishing and outdoor recreation policy. The issue dates back to 1953, when Congress passed

the Submerged Lands Act. The act established a coastal boundary for each state at three geographical miles from the shore. The federal government retained control of water bottoms farther out. The act provided that Congress could vote to extend the boundaries up to 10 miles offshore if a state could prove the existence of a law or constitutional provision that established a boundary beyond three miles before that state joined the Union. In a 1960 lawsuit brought by the federal government, the five Gulf states argued each qualified for an exception. The U.S. Supreme Court decided Texas and Florida had produced historical documents supporting a 10-mile boundary but it ruled Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana did not. After 30 more years of litigation, the government, the Supreme Court and the states in 1992 set a legal definition of where each of the three states’ coastline began — and from there the threemile limit would be determined. The decree did not

extend the three-mile limit. Louisiana wildlife officials said the state Legislature gave authority to extend waters in 2011 — but only after it was recognized by Congress or approved in litigation. The Mississippi law of 2013 mimics the Louisiana law, but without the reference to Congress. Its author, Rep. Casey Eure, R-Biloxi, said at the time that the bill was important to recreational and commercial fishermen. Eure said Louisiana’s plan would overlap some waters where Mississippi officials had placed reefs and where Mississippi recreational and commercial fishermen had harvested for years. It was unclear how the two states would work out the overlap matter. Cochran said his proposal also would assert state authority for managing, leasing, developing and using recreational fisheries within the extended area. “Recreational fishing in the Gulf of Mexico is an important part of the economy and lifestyle of south Mississippi. The federal government not recognizing

Mississippi’s right to extend its waters for the purpose of fishing adversely affects these activities, as we saw this year with the shortened red snapper season,” Cochran said. The federal red snapper season ran June 1-9. Most of the red snapper fishing is in the deeper federal waters near oil rigs. But the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources decided the nine miles of waters would be open for red snapper fishing through much of July. The agency told fishermen the federal government does not recognize this distance, and anyone possessing red snapper farther than three miles south of the barrier islands could be cited by federal law enforcement officers. Officials said fishing between three and nine miles in Mississippi waters is at the angler’s own risk. Cochran said his proposed amendment would have remedied the problem.

Immigration issue illustrates the broader partisan divide The border crisis that brought President Barack Obama and Texas Gov. Rick Perry to the table earlier this week is one that graphically illustrates the partisan and philosophic divide that is grinding our American government into the quagmire of gridlock. To date, some 52,000 unaccompanied youth and children have been detained along the Southwest border this fiscal year, which almost doubles last year’s total. The illegal immigration surge is one that is clearly a reaction to dangers and deprivation in Mexico and the Central American region along with the false belief that governments in American will accept illegal immigrant youth, children and women more readily than adults. What is the greater issue? Is it the total abdication of border security and the rule of law on the question of immigration – a situation that has existed under the nose of Congress and occupants of the White House from both parties for decades? Or is the greater ill the humanitarian disaster of children wandering across dangerous, life-threatening terrain seeking a better like only to be stonewalled and

marginalized by the country that professes to welcome immigrants? I m m i Sid Salter gration is a problem that Columnist will solved by governing, not by posturing on the methods. Current laws are sufficient to manage immigration – but only if both parties turn from decades of ignoring enforcement for political reasons. Clearly, the fact that the face of the current crisis is a young person’s face exacerbates the problem and intensifies the debate. But the fact is that this is an old and tired debate. The Democrat and Republican labels are both pretty worthless on the topic of immigration. Neither party can lay any legitimate claim to anything approaching a moral high ground on the issue. Congress, as it has for decades, has talked in circles around immigration reform until the numbers of illegal or undocumented immigrants grew to the level that mass deportation is neither fiscally feasible nor politically plausible and

that the nation’s economy has become inexorably intertwined with immigrant labor. Not only have immigrants workers filled the void on low wage, low skill jobs that Americans in other demographics have not pursued, they have done so with a sterling work ethic and a performance that has given them upward mobility in the workplace. Despite getting 71 percent of the Hispanic vote in 2012, Obama has deported more Hispanics than his predecessor George W. Bush. Bush caved on immigration reform despite have family ties to America’s Hispanic community. President Barack Obama made exorbitant political promises to deliver immigration reform, but caved on them in a slightly different direction. Immigration, because of the sheer size and scope of the problem and because of the political reality that Hispanics now represent more than 9 percent of the national electorate, is an issue that neither party has a credible solution for and so the political game has become one of kick the can down the road.

decision on the omnibus 2010 Arizona immigration legislation really satisfied no one and settled nothing in terms of delineating America’s future immigration policy. It would seem that, in great measure, the future will be one in which neither the federal nor state governments exert much effort to enforce existing federal laws and that the state’s be will constrained from taking steps to enforce the federal immigration laws that the feds now routinely ignore. In the guise of Obama and Perry, both parties and the federal and state governments those parties fight over controlling, continue to pass the buck and ignore both the humanitarian disgrace and the legal and statutory joke that immigration enforcement has become. The only this both parties seem to agree on is that they don’t want to be the one holding the bag when the issue overwhelms the country - and that will come sooner than either party wants to admit.

Bergdahl returned to regular duty WASHINGTON -- The Army has given Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl a desk job, ending the formal phase of his transition from Taliban prisoner to not-quite-ordinary soldier, and setting the stage for Army investigators to question the Idaho native about his disappearance that led to five years in captivity. In a brief statement Monday, the Army said Bergdahl has been assigned to U.S. Army North at Joint Base San Antonio-Fort Sam Houston in Texas. Bergdahl has been decompressing and recuperating from the effects of captivity since his arrival there from a military base in Germany. Since he was handed over to U.S. special forces in Afghanistan on May 31, he has been debriefed for any possible intelligence he might have gleaned in his time with the Taliban. Otherwise, he has been gently coaxed back into a normal routine and a normal life, both physically and psychologically. Bergdahlâ€™s case is one of the most extraordinary of recent times â€” for the length of his captivity, for his apparent decision to abandon his unit during a combat deployment, and for the controversy triggered by the circumstances of his release May 31. Itâ€™s not clear when Bergdahl will face investigators on the disappearance probe, whose findings will help determine whether the 28-year-old is prosecuted for desertion or faces any other disciplinary action. The probe is headed by Maj. Gen. Kenneth R. Dahl, deputy commanding general of 1st Corps at Joint Base Lewis McChord in Washington state. Â

Coast guard frees boat trapped in ice ANCHORAGE, Alaska -- The U.S. Coast Guard has freed a Canadian sailboat that became trapped in Arctic ice off the north coast of Alaska. KTUU-TV reports the 36-foot Altan Girl out of Vancouver was attempting to sail to eastern Canada through the Northwest Passage.

It became trapped in ice 40 miles northeast of Barrow, the northernmost city in the United States. The Coast Guard cutter Healy reached the sailboat, and with the Altan Girl in tow, on Saturday cut a 12-mile path through ice to open water. The sailboatâ€™s owner says he intends to wait in Barrow for better weather and to restock supplies. The Healy is on a National Science Foundation-funded research mission in the Arctic. The Coast Guard says the cutter is continuing with its research. Â

Second probe finds more lab problems NEW YORK -- A second investigation has detailed additional safety problems at federal health laboratories in Atlanta, including the use of expired disinfectants and the transfer of dangerous germs in Ziploc bags. The new findings were disclosed Monday in a congressional committeeâ€™s summary of a U.S. Department of Agriculture report on the CDC anthrax incident. The USDA report focuses on an incident last month at a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention lab that handles bioterrorism agents. The lab was supposed to completely kill anthrax samples before sending them to two other CDC labs. But the higher-security lab did not completely sterilize the bacteria. Dozens of CDC workers were potentially exposed to dangerous anthrax bacteria. No one got sick, but a CDC internal investigation report released last week found serious safety lapses, including use of unapproved sterilization techniques and use of a potent anthrax in an experiment that didnâ€™t require that germ to be used. Separate from the CDC probe, investigators from the USDAâ€™s Animal and Plant Health Inspection Services came to the CDC to look into what happened. Â

Bull gores promoter at his own rodeo ANCHORAGE, Alaska

-- Rodeo cowboy Frank Koloski has been gored before, but never at an event he sponsored. The founder and coowner of Rodeo Alaska on Saturday was promoting and participating in the Alaska Sales & Service Bear Paw Rodeo Round-Up and took a steer horn to the abdomen. Originally from St. Cloud, Florida, Koloskiâ€™s specialty is â€œdouble mugging,â€? an event in which one cowboy on a horse ropes a steer while another on foot tries to wrestle the animal to the ground, the Anchorage Daily News reported. Koloski on Saturday night was the cowboy on foot. He also saw blood on his shirt. The bullâ€™s horn had punctured him below his stomach and pushed in about 41â „2 inches, he said. He tried to â€œkind of trotâ€? out of the arena but got lightheaded and fell. Koloski managed to win the double-mugging event despite the wound and was awarded $1,000 and a belt buckle. Â

Swastika banner spurs criticism NEW YORK -- A banner aiming to change peopleâ€™s minds about what swastikas stand for has stirred outrage after it flew over beaches in New York City and on Long Island. Some beachgoers were appalled and officials fielded complaints after a plane toted the banner Saturday. The banner featured swastikas, a peace sign, a Star of David and a â€œpro-swastikaâ€? message. It was arranged by the International Raelian Movement. The group tries annually to remind people that before Adolf Hitlerâ€™s rise, the swastika was an ancient symbol of well-being to Hindus and Buddhists, among others. The Raelians â€” who believe human beings were created by extraterrestrials â€” have faced controversy over similar swastika banners in summers past. Some beachgoers say thereâ€™s just no way to rehabilitate a symbol that provokes such strong feelings.

Man gets death in murder of 2-year-old LAUREL -- Justin Blakeney has been sentenced to death after being convicted of capital murder in the 2010 death of a 2-year-old girl. The Chronicle reports a jury brought in from Greene County reached a verdict shortly after an hour of deliberations on Friday. Blakeney was charged with the death of Victoria Viner, the daughter of his then live-in girlfriend. On Aug. 10, 2010, Blakeney was babysitting the child when she required medical attention. The child was taken University Medical Center in Jackson where she died two days later. According to the autopsy report, the state crime lab cited the cause of death as blunt force trauma to the head. Blakeney had argued the child fell from a stool and hit her head. Â

Sheriff questions possible violations PASCAGOULA -- Jackson County Sheriff Charles Britt is questioning whether former Sheriff Mike Byrd is violating conditions of his probation by contacting office employees about the upcoming special election. Britt raised the question in a July 9 letter to Corrections Commissioner Christopher Epps. Copies went to District Attorney Tony Lawrence, Jackson County Board of Supervisors President Troy Ross and board attorney Paula Yancey. Britt said in the letter phone calls that Byrd has made to sheriffâ€™s department employees and local business professionals trying to â€œpersuadeâ€? them to support and endorse a candidate in the upcoming sheriffâ€™s election. In addition to Britt, six others have qualified for the Nov. 4 special election for sheriff to serve the remaining year of the Byrdâ€™s four-year term. The qualifying deadline is Sept. 5. The letter did not specify which candidate that Byrd was trying to enlist support.

Body discovered in burning house BOVINA -- Volunteer firefighters in Bovina east of Vicksburg made a gruesome discovery while battling a house fire. Warren County Sheriff Martin Pace said deputies were on patrol Sunday night when they noticed thick smoke several miles away. About the same time calls to 911 began coming in about a fire at a single family home. Pace tells WLBT TV the body of an unidentified person was found in the bedroom of a home. At this time it is not known if the person is male or female. Culkin and Bovina Fire Departments responded to the blaze. Â

Waveland opens doors to casinos WAVELAND -- The city of Waveland has amended its charter to remove a prohibition on casinos. Not that any are planned. â€œWeâ€™re not misleading anybody. Weâ€™re not in any negotiations with any casinos,â€? said Mayor David Garcia. â€œWe just didnâ€™t want it in there. We wanted to remove it as an economic development engine. â€œWhereas, if Waveland is ever approached or given the opportunity to open a discussion with a casino, weâ€™ll be able to open a discussion with them based upon that. Right now the charter would prohibit that discussion from taking place.â€? Garcia said any future plans would have to be scrutinized by the city and the community first before moving forward.

MSU student awarded Miss Mississippi crown The Associated Press

VICKSBURG — Miss Mississippi Jasmine Murray’s platform isn’t just something to promote as a beauty queen and pageant winner, it’s something she wants to promote nationwide and hopefully work with as a career. The 22-year-old Mississippi State student from Columbus said she would like to see her platform, “13 Going On 30: Teaching Young Girls To Embrace Their Age,” be adopted by the Boys and Girls Club of America,

and used on a national level. Named after the movie “13 Going On 30,” the platform aims at encouraging teens to find mentors and role models who can help them make decisions that will keep them out of trouble. Murray said she was inspired by friends who became teenage mothers when they were younger and had to put their dreams, and ultimately their childhood on hold. In Murray’s opinion, growing up too fast can cause teenage pregnancy, eating disor-

ders, drug and alcohol abuse, and dropping out of school. Through her motivational camps and speaking engagements, Murray has reached out to hundreds of young women on the subjects of peer pressure, bullying, and making good choices. In addition to churches and civic organizations, Murray has promoted her platform at Boys and Girls Club camps, and said she’d like to see that message be one that’s passed along all over the state and ultimately, the

nation. “They’ve been very, very welcoming to me and my platform, and I’d like to see them adopt ‘13 Going On 30’ as a national platform, and I hope to do that at the end of my reign,” she said. A broadcast communications major, Murray said she knows she wants to continue to chase that dream long after Miss Mississippi and Miss America are past. For the moment, though, she’s reveling in being able to wear the crown that represents the state she’s so

Lightning survivor can’t remember strike The Associated Press

DENVER — Justin Teilhet doesn’t remember hearing a boom or feeling a sting, just waking up numb on the treeless tundra high in Rocky Mountain National Park and discovering his good friend was trying to revive his wife. It was a lightning bolt, he learned later, and it killed his wife and left him with a burn on his shoulder and a cut on his face when he was knocked to the ground unconscious.

Lightning killed two people last weekend just miles apart in the popular park, where summer storms can close in quickly with deadly results. Rebecca Teilhet, 42, of Yellow Springs, Ohio, was killed Friday while hiking on the Ute Crossing Trail at about 11,400 feet above sea level. Justin Teilhet and six other hikers were injured. One day later and a few miles away, lightning killed 52-year-old Gregory Cardwell of Scotts-

bluff, Nebraska, at Rainbow Curve, a pullover on Trail Ridge Road with sweeping vistas from a vantage point about 10,800 feet above sea level. Three others were hurt by that strike. They were the first lightning deaths in the park since 2000, officials said. Thunderstorms occur in the park almost daily during the peak travel months of summer, and many produce lightning. “A storm blew in, and it came very fast,” Jus-

tin Teilhet said Monday from his home in Ohio. “It started raining a little bit. We were hearing claps of thunder everywhere, but it there wasn’t any lightning.” His wife and his good friend Nick Tertel of Fort Collins were hustling back to the trailhead parking lot on Trail Ridge Road as the storm closed in. The next thing Teilhet remembers was struggling to lift his body from the ground, with one side numb.

Gore, Kennedy clan at funeral for press icon The Associated Press

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Former Vice President Al Gore and members of the Kennedy family joined hundreds of other mourners Monday for the funeral of renowned journalist and press freedom champion John Seigenthaler, whose career spanned the civil rights struggle in the South and contemporary battles for media openness in the digital age. “We lost a giant,” said Gore following the Mass

in Nashville, which was attended by more than 600 people from the worlds of politics, media, humanitarian groups and entertainment. The funeral reflected the wide reach of Seigenthaler’s career, which included leading the newspapers The Tennessean and USA Today and working as a civil rights adviser during the administration of John F. Kennedy. Seigenthaler also was part of Robert Kennedy’s presidential

campaign and a pallbearer at Kennedy’s funeral after his assassination in 1968. Seigenthaler later directed a center at Vanderbilt University dedicated to media freedoms and First Amendment rights for established news outlets as well as the evolving landscape of online journalism. He died Friday at his home in Nashville. Charles Strobel, the founder of a homeless outreach group in Nash-

ville, delivered the eulogy in which he said Seigenthaler’s commitment to the principles of equality and fairness was “deeply spiritual.” “He spent a lifetime coming to the defense of others,” Strobel said. Strobel said journalism was a means for Seigenthaler to achieve his vision, but “if his beloved friend Robert Kennedy had become president, he would have left The Tennessean to serve him.”

proud to call home. Murray is best known for her run in season eight of American Idol. She was a Top 13 finalist at age 16, as a junior at Mississippi School of the Arts in Brookhaven. During that time, the whole state, and a large part of the south, rallied behind her and she was a regional favorite. Now she’s back in that position, and she handles it with grace and humility. “I’m so grateful for the opportunity to represent my entire state. I have been so fortunate to kind

of move around a little bit over the time that I’ve had in school, to go to the School of the Arts, Mississippi State, Columbus High School, and to develop relationships with people all over the state,” she said. “I look forward to continuing to build those relationships and travel all over the state to serve the people of Mississippi.” Murray said her family, which includes three sisters and a brother, is more excited about her victory than she is, if it’s possible.

Drainage The city spent about $600,000 initially to tackle the worst problem areas after the floods of 2010 and 2011. A routine program of spraying along the canals to deter vegetation is now in place. With about $1.43 million in hand from FEMA and MEMA following the 2010 and 2011 floods, the city repaired the large culvert pipe in South Corinth from Ross Street to Cass

Street. The funds also went toward debris removal, street and culvert repairs and repairs at the waste treatment plant. Other drainage efforts: ■ The city commissioned a study of the storm drainage structures in the sub-basins of Oak Lane, Tishomingo, downtown and Walmart, where flooding has repeatedly occurred. The resulting data was incorporated into a computer program to help the street department locate drainage structures that may be responsible for local flooding issues. The study cost $303,000, with $150,000 provided by an Appalachian Regional Commission grant. ■ The $4.09 million Economic Development Administration grant will provide for major drainage work in the Oak Lane and Tishomingo sub-basins. ■ The city purchased new pumps to help keep the Cass Street and Fulton Drive underpasses clear. ■ The street department purchased a larger tractor to enable it to use a bush hog attachment with a longer boom reach for use on the drainage ditches.

Dear Annie: Every year, my grandmother and I go to my cousins’ house for Christmas. This year is different for me. I have had the miracle of God helping me overcome some major addictions in my life. I’ve expressed to my uncle that I do not feel like I know who my cousins are now that we are adults and have lost touch to some extent. There are also economic differences. My income is near the poverty level, and I receive government assistance. My cousins, however, are financially successful. I have made attempts to meet with them, but it never happens. They are not into religion, and I believe they are controlled by materialism. (My aunt and uncle give me cash for Christmas.) I also notice that they do not open presents in front of us. I feel like a stranger who just shows up for a free meal and to get “paid.” I think that going there cheapens the importance that this day has for me. I would rather go where they feed the homeless and be an example unto them. — Trying To Keep my Dignity Dear Trying: While we agree that the holiday season includes rampant materialism, you are being awfully harsh in your judgment of the relatives. The meal and exchanging of gifts is traditional

Annie’s Mailbox in most families. Not opening presents is sometimes a way to avoid embarrassing someone whose gift may not be as fancy as someone else’s. Giving cash is a way of providing a gift when you aren’t sure what the other person likes and you want to please them. These are all kind and thoughtful gestures, and we aren’t sure why you don’t harbor more charitable thoughts toward your family. However, if going to your cousins’ makes you miserable and you would rather spend the holiday feeding the homeless, we certainly wouldn’t try to dissuade you. We wish more people would lend a hand to those in need. Dear Annie: My grandson and his family live in another state. His daughter, “Mary,” is having her first birthday soon, and since it is not possible for me to be there in person, I went online to the websites of two major stores and ordered gifts from each store and had them delivered. I

let them know the packages were on the way. When the packages were received, they called and said the gifts arrived and added, “Thank you for the presents.” I realize that I am lucky to have gotten that much acknowledgement. But since I went to the trouble of picking out things I thought Mary would like, it is too much to ask that they at least tell me what they think? Could they not have said, “She loved playing with the toys,” or “The dress was so cute”? Am I expecting too much? I could have gotten the same response with less effort if I had just sent a gift card. — Picky Grandma Dear Picky: A proper thank-you includes specific comments about the gift, even if just to say how thoughtful it was. And if you are comfortable asking, you can inquire whether Mary liked the toys and dress. But, sorry to say, we suspect a gift card would please her parents just as much.
