2 die in boat wreck Suspect in truck

BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

TISHOMINGO COUNTY, Miss.

— A fatal late night accident on the Tennessee-Tom Waterway resulted in the deaths of two men from Counce, Tennessee on Friday.

Their bodies were discovered early Saturday morning by the Hardin County Dive Team.

Carey Downs, 39, and Jeremie Floyd, 40, were headed out to go bass fishing when their boat struck a parked barge loaded with coal around mid-

night Friday. Investigators believe they were traveling at a high rate of speed because of the force of the impact, according to Hardin County Fire Chief Melvin Martin.

Floyd was driving the boat and hit the moored barge going around 50 miles per hour. He was knocked unconscious and drowned, according to Tishomingo County Coroner Mack Wilemon.

Downs died from a blunt force trauma to the head.

The barge was tied off at the

bank and was not connected to a towboat at the time of the accident. Chief Martin said it was apparent the boaters did not see the barge.

Chief Martin said that Downs and Floyd were both thrown from their boat when they hit the barge across the lake from the Goat Island Campground.

Downs and Floyd did not have on their lifejackets.

School district among 14 seeking funds

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

A Crossroads area school district is among 14 suing the state in an attempt to reclaim money from years of alleged underfunding of education by the state legislature.

The Prentiss County School District has joined with districts including Clay County and Okolona in North Mississippi and 12 other districts from other areas of the state in the suit seeking funds they claim are owed due to shortfalls in funding of the Mississippi Adequate Education Program (MAEP), the formula used to determine state funding for school districts.

The Corinth School District declined to hear a presentation recently from Booneville attorney Casey Lott, one of the attorneys representing the districts in the lawsuit, and has chosen not to join the effort.

The Alcorn School District has also not joined in the suit.

The lawsuit effort, led by former Governor Ronnie Musgrove, was filed in Hinds County Chancery Clerk and asks a judge to order the state to pay districts participating the suit funds they claim they did not receive because MAEP was not fully funded. The suit also asks the judge to require the state legislature to fully fund MAEP in the future.

Musgrove, who helped lead the effort to pass the original MAEP legislation while serving as lieutenant governor in 1997, has argued the law requires the legislature to fully fund the program and they are violating the law by not doing so.

The lawsuit comes as another group, Better Schools Better Jobs, pursues a statewide petition effort to place a constitutional amendment on the ballot for a future election which would require the state legislature to put at least 25 percent of any increase in state general fund revenue toward MAEP until it is fully funded.

Eluding the authorities since Friday, Hopkins said Carnell reportedly hitched a ride with a driver unaware that he was wanted by police.

The prior felon was later spotted in the man’s car and arrested during a routine traffic stop.

He was taken to the Alcorn County Sheriff’s Office for questioning.

Friday’s are a little quieter this fall on the campus of Northeast Mississippi Community College as the school begins its first semester under a four-day instructional week.

The new schedule means classes are only in session Monday through Thursday with Fridays set aside for faculty training, departmental meetings and other enrichment activities. Day classes will run from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. each day.

Executive Vice-President Ricky Ford said the plan was created with the goal of bettering opportunities for students and faculty.

“Everything we do has the students in mind,” he said.

The idea originated last year among top school administrators who began developing a plan which they presented to the board of trustees for approval.

“We’ve gotten a lot of support from faculty, students and members of the board,” said Ford.

Students are the only ones who will actually get Fridays off, he explained. All school offices and facilities will remain open normal hours, including the student services building,

cafeteria and library.

Faculty are expected to use the day for planning, training courses, department meetings and other collaborative and educational opportunities. It was difficult to schedule these types of activities with a standard four-day week, said Ford.

He believes the arrangement will also benefit students by giving them greater flexibility when scheduling classes and an extra day to work or take care of family and other responsibilities, making the college experience more accessible.

Ford noted enrollment has increased this semester by approximately 11 percent and he attributes some of the rise to the more flexible schedules offered through the new arrangement.

The official said he’s heard concerns from some local business owners about the potential for lost sales due to one less day of students being in town.

However, he believes businesses may actually see a boost in sales under the new schedule because the arrangement will require most students to be on campus all four days creating a more consistent number of students in the area on days when classes are in session.

Upcoming tax-free weekend will benefit state’s sportsmen

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

Passing both the House and the Senate with strong bipartisan support, Senate Bill 2425 was signed into law by Governor Phil Bryant on April 2, providing Mississippi sportsmen with an annual tax-free weekend in September.

Backed by the National Rifle Association, the law went into effect on July 1.

The holiday will be held annually on the first Friday of each September until midnight on the following Sunday.

Mississippi’s first tax-free Second Amendment weekend will take place Sept. 5–7, giving hunters and gun owners across the state a reason to celebrate.

Individual sales of firearms, ammunition, archery equip-

ment, rifle scopes and certain hunting supplies will be exempt from taxes during the state’s inaugural tax holiday.

“We’re very excited about this weekend,” said Tom Oaks, owner of Lonnie’s Sporting Goods.

“It’s going to be a great thing for both our customers and us.”

While a large turn-out is projected for the weekend, Oaks believes it would have been even more popular had it not been for the exclusions.

“I do think it’ll be big, but it could have been even bigger,” he said. “Louisiana is in their fourth year of doing this and everything is included. Sports wear, hunting boots and other types of gear are excluded from ours due to a bill that was Please see TAX-FREE | 2

Nunnelee seeks 3rd term after surgery

BY EMILY WAGSTER PETTUS Associated Press

JACKSON — Republican U.S. Rep. Alan Nunnelee is likely to make few campaign appearances in north Mississippi this fall as he recovers from brain surgery and a stroke.

The limited schedule, however, probably won’t jeopardize the chances of a third term for the congressman from Tupelo.

Nunnelee’s Democratic challenger, Ron Dickey of Horn Lake, has never held public office, has raised only $6,000 in campaign cash, is working his way out of bankruptcy and is still trying to shake criticism from Special Forces veterans who say Dickey misrepresented his own military service by falsely claiming to be a “Green Beret Veteran of Desert Storm.”

And there’s this inconvenient fact: The chairman of Mississippi Democratic Party, Rickey Cole, has publicly called on Dickey to drop out of the race. Cole said Dick-

job. He said he was not trying to deceive people by listing himself online as a “Green Beret Veteran of Desert Storm.”

“The only thing I basically did was say what I had,” Dickey said, meaning the beret. He also said he did not serve in Iraq during Operation Desert Storm.

Dickey said he received hundreds of calls of complaint after a veterans’ group criticized his description of his military service.

Nunnelee, 55, had surgery June 9 to remove a mass from his brain, and his staff said he has undergone chemotherapy and radiation. He also has been undergoing therapy to deal with speech difficulties and weakness on his left side. Nunnelee recently revealed that he’d had a stroke during the surgery.

“Rather than continually asking the question, ‘why did this happen to me,’ an attitude of thanksgiving allows me to approach the hard work

ey, 43, should focus on earning money and getting out of debt.

“You can either be a full-time candidate or you can have a full-time job, but you can’t really do both,” Cole said.

Federal court records show Dickey and his wife filed for bankruptcy on Aug. 17, 2010. In an interview with The Associated Press, Dickey said they have about 12 more payments to make to emerge from the process.

Dickey, 43, said they filed after running into financial problems because of home construction and difficulties with a trucking-industry job he had during the Great Recession that started in 2008.

Dickey said he served in the Army from May 1990 to May 1993 and was assigned for part of that time to work in a food-services support job for a Special Forces group at a South Carolina base.

He said while he was not a Green Beret, he had a green beret as part of his uniform in the support

“I hope Alan gets to campaign as much as he wants to,” Nosef said. “If he has to scale it back a bit, I don’t think it’s going to hurt him at all.”

Cole said even if Democrats had a well-known and well-funded nominee, it would be a delicate balancing act to campaign against an incumbent who’s working to recover from serious health issues.

“I’m not sure how anybody could run against Alan in his current state because of the sympathy factor,” Cole said.

Dickey said he differs with Nunnelee on issues — Dickey supports an increase in the minimum wage, for example, and legislation that would require equal pay for women and men who have the same jobs. But he wishes the incumbent good health.

“Alan Nunnelee is a tough Mississippian, and he’s loved by a lot of people,” Dickey said. “I hope and pray that he has a speedy recovery.”

of stroke recovery with resolve and determination,” Nunnelee wrote in an Aug. 10 message that was posted to Facebook and emailed to supporters.

Nunnelee’s campaign consultant, Morgan Baldwin, said the congressman’s main focus now is on recovery rather than campaigning, although he said Nunnelee has always believed “the bestrun campaign is a wellrun, efficient office.”

Nunnelee served in the state Senate from 1995 until he unseated Democratic U.S. Rep. Travis Childers in 2010. During his final years in the state Capitol, he was chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee. He now serves on the U.S. House Appropriations Committee.

Mississippi Republican Party chairman Joe Nosef acknowledged that Nunnelee is likely to campaign less than usual, but he said the congressman has good will built up with voters.

Manning case back before Supreme Court Pot plants JACK ELLIOTT JR. Associated Press

JACKSON — A Mississippi death row inmate is back before the state’s high court to challenge the evidence and his lawyer’s performance during his trial in the slayings of two elderly women.

Willie Jerome Manning is appealing an Oktibbeha County judge’s denial of his post-conviction challenges related to evidence in his trial and his lawyer’s performance. The Mississippi Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in the case on Oct. 27 in Jackson.

In 1996, Manning was convicted and sentenced to death in the slayings of Emmoline Jimmerson, 90, and her daughter, Alberta Jordan, 60, during a robbery attempt at their Starkville apartment in 1993. The women were beaten and their throats were slashed.

The Mississippi Supreme Court upheld Manning’s conviction and two death sentences in 2000. But four years

later, the high court granted Manning approval to pursue three post-conviction claims: that prosecutors withheld evidence; that they presented false evidence; and that Manning was denied effective counsel at trial and on appeal.

Circuit Judge Lee Howard ruled against Manning on all three issues in 2013. But Manning’s attorneys appealed, claiming Howard’s ruling denied Manning “an opportunity to develop a number of claims challenging the reliability of his conviction.”

During the initial trial, one of Manning’s friends, Kevin Lucious, testified that he spoke to Manning at the Brooksville Gardens apartments on the evening of the slayings and then saw Manning force his way into the women’s apartment.

Other witnesses also testified they saw Manning at the apartments. Manning denied he had been there.

Manning argued Lucious later recanted.

Lucious said he was coerced by prosecutors into implicating Manning, according to court documents.

Howard, the Oktibbeha County judge, said he found no reliable proof that Lucious was threatened by law enforcement officials. Howard said law enforcement officials testified Lucious was never threatened or pressured for testimony in the case.

Howard said he could not find that Manning’s lawyer was ineffective for failing to attack Lucious testimony.

documents that Lucious gave several statements to authorities about the slayings. She said it was only six years after the trial that Lucious argued he was coerced by prosecutors and the story changed each time Lucious was asked to describe how he was coerced.

“The only time his story ever made sense ... was when Lucious testified at Manning’s trial,” Thomas said.

Emily Maw, an attorney for the New Orleansbased Innocence Project, argued in a friend of the court brief that it was clear Lucious lied while testifying at Manning’s trial.

WALNUT — Tippah County authorities seized more than 40 marijuana plants in Walnut on Friday.

Investigators say a tip led them to a home at 2330 CR 100 where they confiscated more than 40 marijuana plants from three different locations near the residence.

Phillip Patrick Krause, 52, was arrested. He is waiting to be arraigned, no bond has been set.

Tippah County Investigators Tommy Mason and Josh Bateman along with Deputy Richard Bryant confiscated the plants and made the arrest.

RESISTING TEMPTATION “Be sober, be watchful; your adversary the devil, as it roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour; whom withstand steadfast in your faith.” (1 Pel. 3: 8, 9) Satan tempts us to sin in thought, speech, and action. He tempts children of God to compromise convictions, neglect duties, and divide loyalty between God and himself. Satan still used the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, and the pride of life to draw children of God back

into the world.

James assures us, though, that with God’s help it is possible to overcome Satan: “Resist the devil and he will flee from you” (James 4:7) No set of rules will help one, however, unless he wills to overcome temptation.

so as to catch us in sin, hoping we will yield to temptation, so he can write another mark against our record and punish us. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Corinth, Miss.

Irresponsible choices The latest Gallup poll indicates that 14 percent of the people “moderately disapprove” of Barack Obama’s performance as president and 39 percent “strongly disapprove.”

Since Obama won two presidential elections, chances are that some of those who now “strongly disapprove” of what he has done voted to put him in office. We all make mistakes, but the real question is whether we learn from them.

With many people now acting as Thomas Sowell if it is time for “a woman” to become president, apparently they have Columnist learned absolutely nothing from the disastrous results of the irresponsible self-indulgence of choosing a President of the United States on the basis of demographic characteristics, instead of individual qualifications.

It would not matter to me if the next five presidents in a row were all women, if these happened to be the best individuals available at the time. But to say that we should now elect “a woman” president in 2016 is to say that we are willfully blind to the dangers of putting life and death decisions in the hands of someone chosen for symbolic reasons.

If we were to choose just “a woman” as our next president, would that mean that any criticism of that president would be considered to be a sign of being against women?

No public official should be considered to be above criticism -- and the higher up that official is, the more important it is to hold his or her feet to the fire when it comes to carrying out duties involving the life and death of individuals and the fate of the nation.

We have not yet had a Jewish president. If and when we do, does that mean that any criticism of that individual should be stigmatized and dismissed as anti-Semitism? What of our first Italian American president, our first Asian American president?

Human beings of every background are imperfect creatures. When they are in a position high enough for their imperfections to bring disasters to more than 300 million Americans, the last thing we need is to stifle criticism of what they do.

It is by no means guaranteed that this country will survive the long-run consequences of the disastrous decisions already made by Barack Obama, especially his pretense of stopping Iran’s becoming a nuclear power. Obama may no longer be in office when those chickens come home to roost.

If we wake up some morning and find some American city in radioactive ruins, will we connect the dots and see this as a consequence of voting to elect an unknown and untried man, for the sake of racial symbolism?

Among those who look around for someone to blame, how many will look in the mirror?

Presidents already have too much insulation from criticism -- and from reality.

When President Calvin Coolidge caught everyone by surprise in 1928, by announcing that he would not run for reelection, despite a prosperous economy and his own personal popularity, he simply said, “I do not choose to run.” Coolidge was a man of very few words, despite his knowledge of multiple languages. Someone once said that Coolidge could be silent in five different languages.

But, when he later wrote a small autobiography, Coolidge explained the inherent dangers in the office of President of the United States, especially when one person remains in the White House too long.

“It is difficult for men in high office to avoid the malady of self-delusion. They are always surrounded by worshippers. They are constantly, and for the most part sincerely, assured of their greatness.

“They live in an artificial atmosphere of adulation and exaltation which sooner or later impairs their judgment. They are in grave danger of becoming careless and arrogant.”

Of presidents who served eight years in office, he said, “in almost every instance” the last years of their terms show little “constructive accomplishments” and those years are often “clouded with grave disappointments.”

Another president chosen for demographic representation (whether by race, sex or whatever), and further insulated from criticism and from reality, is the last thing we need.

Prayer for today My Father, what I have left out of my life I know I cannot recover now. I pray that I may give the best to what is left. Make me deliberate, that I may prove my earnestness. Make me industrious, that I may use my best resources to develop my life and further thy kingdom. Amen.

Book takes fresh look at Mississippi history JACKSON — The book is called “A New History of Mississippi,” and a new approach is what Dennis Mitchell wanted when he wrote it.

The professor at Mississippi State UniversityMeridian casts a critical eye on the “Moonlight and Magnolias” school of Southern history, trying to communicate decades of recent scholarship to readers with a decided emphasis on the post-Civil War period.

The first general history of the state for adult readers in nearly 40 years, the book focuses on Mississippi’s central dilemma of race. It’s being adopted by some universities and could be influential for years.

“I felt like there was a real need for it because the last history for general readers was in 1976,” Mitchell said. “There’s been a huge mountain of scholarship about Mississippi published since then.”

The book is deeply informed by all those works. Mitchell said he had “thousands” of sticky notes on books, disserta-

tions and theses that he used as he wrote to flag information he wanted Jeff Amy to fold in. of Capitol Dome Much that acad e m i c scholarship is hard to access for general readers, even those who patronize the best-stocked bookstores and public libraries.

More than half of the 593-page book, published by the University Press of Mississippi earlier this year, covers 1900 to present.

“If you stop and think about it, there’s been a lot of history since the Civil War,” Mitchell said.

Targeting general readers, though, the book isn’t footnoted and tries to account for the lives of regular people as well as political leaders.

“I felt liberated, in a way, to tell the story a little more freely and openly. It allowed a little better flow in writing.” Mitchell said of skipping footnotes.

Mitchell’s book down-

grades some traditional pillars, such as L.Q.C. Lamar, the post-Civil War U.S. senator long acclaimed as a spokesman for sectional reconciliation. Lamar went on to serve as U.S. secretary of the interior and later became the only Mississippian to ever serve on the U.S. Supreme Court.

The book finds Lamar complicit in the violence of the 1875 state elections, which swept away Republican control of state government for more than a century and eventually led to the elimination of black voting in 1890. He writes that “old heroes” such as Lamar and James Z. George have “lost their luster in an age accepting racial equality as a given.”

“I think Lamar has gotten a pass for a long time,” Mitchell said. “He was the front man for the violence that the redeemers used to eliminate the black votes.”

The author says a critical look at the state’s past can help Mississippi move forward today.

“I thought that Mississippians weren’t going to progress until they come to terms with their past,”

Mitchell said. “People act on their ideas about the past.”

Mitchell closes his book on a positive note, saying “the civil rights movement freed all Mississippians — black and white — from an oppressive system that kept both races on the bottom of almost every national yardstick of progress.”

The author says he sees that progress in his own classes in Meridian, where he notes white students are descendants of a community that produced the Klansmen who killed James Earl Chaney, Andrew Goodman, and Michael Schwerner in the summer of 1964 in Neshoba County. Today, he says white students are appalled at those acts.

“What gives me hope about not only the future but our misunderstood past is all the stories I could find of people who were able to cross the racial divide,” Mitchell said.

“To me, they’re the best thing about our history.”

Nine years later, Katrina still casts long shadow Mississippi communities are rejoicing over the fact that Federal Emergency Management Agency Community Disaster Loan Program debts are being forgiven by the federal government in area where those loans were made nine year ago for Hurricane Katrina relief.

Yet almost a decade later, Hurricane Katrina still casts a long, sad shadow over the Mississippi Gulf Coast. For the remarkable progress made in the nine years since the storm, the lingering impact remains easy to see.

In a helicopter with then-Gov. Haley Barbour, I remember the despair I felt as a reporter looking out the window of a lowflying airplane loaded with bottled water and other supplies as we circled to land in Gulfport days after Hurricane Katrina slammed Mississippi in 2005.

It was as if the hand of God has wiped a swath of utter devastation across Mississippi’s coastline.

Precious few landmarks were left. The sheer scope of the destruction was difficult to comprehend.

In the first year after Hurricane Katrina, some

$28 billion was spent in Mississippi by the federal government, faith-based Sid Salter groups, and Columnist other charities – but close to 100,000 storm victims were living in FEMA trailers a year after the storm made landfall on the state’s Gulf Coast.

The money was there for Katrina relief and recovery in Mississippi – but the tasks of recovery and rebuilding remained as expansive as the misery left in the storm’s wake.

The feds – through a myriad of FEMA programs, Small Business Administration loans, Community Development Block Grants, defense appropriations, education funds, state Medicaid program funding bailouts and other assorted federal relief – spent or allocated about $25 billion to Mississippi alone.

Congress poured a total of at least $24.6 billion into direct Mississippi Katrina relief in great measure due to the influence of Republican U.S. Sen. Thad Cochran, who then

headed the Senate Appropriations Committee, and Barbour, former head of the Republican National Committee.

Depending upon the national philanthropic organization estimates one accepted at that time, between $4.2 and $5.2 billion in charitable and faith-based spending was in that first year directed at Katrina recovery in addition to government spending – with as much as $2.5 billion estimated to have been spent in Mississippi. That didn’t include the value of donated volunteer labor given by cha rities, churches and civic groups.

Barbour, who was a highly successful Washington lobbyist prior to his two terms as Mississippi’s governor, did what he does best after Katrina.

First and foremost, Barbour exuded more calm, more competence and more command over the absolute bedlam of Hurricane Katrina than even his strongest critics can imagine.

What the public didn’t seen was Barbour at work managing the disaster between press conferences. For this consum-

mate dealmaker schooled in the Byzantine political arts of moving Congress to act and to spend, it is this work that found the governor most effective in his element.

In the bitterness and rancor of Cochran’s reelection bid this year, the real miracle of the work Cochran and Barbour did on Mississippi’s behalf in the frightening days after that storm has been devalued in the minds of some and simply forgotten by others.

It was said in 2005 that it would take 10 years to rebuild and recover from Katrina on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. The fact is that despite years of Herculean efforts on the part of local government and citizens on the Gulf Coast, a decade was likely a very conservative estimate.

The notion that a “full recovery” – whatever that really means with destruction so large and pervasive – could be completed in one more year seems both naïve and impossible.

Obama promoting economic gains MILWAUKEE -- President Barack Obama says he’ll press Congress to raise the minimum wage in the same way he courted his wife — never taking no for an answer.

Obama brought a buoyant Labor Day message to Wisconsin, telling union members on Monday that he sees, quote, “engines are revving a little louder� in an economy coming back from a near-depression five years ago.

Now, he says, quote, “America deserves a raise.� He promises his administration will keep pushing for one.

He adds that if Republicans gain control of Congress after November’s elections, they will hurt the chances for a higher federal minimum wage. Â

Six dead after car slams into tree DALLAS -- Police say a speeding car slammed into a tree after losing control along a Dallas roadway, killing all six people inside.

Dallas police officer Monica Cordova says the crash occurred Sunday night in a residential area in southeast Dallas. The victims were two teenage boys, two men and two women ranging in age from 15 to 23.

Cordova says the 20-year-old driver lost control as the road curved when the back passenger-side tire of the Chevrolet Impala hit a curb. The vehicle slid across three lanes before hitting a tree in the median.

Investigators say four people died at the

scene, while two others died at a hospital.

Cordova says speed was a factor in the crash, but not alcohol. Â

Rivers’ daughter remaining hopeful NEW YORK -- Joan Rivers’ loved ones said Sunday that they remain hopeful about her recovery three days after she went into cardiac arrest at a doctor’s office. “We are keeping our fingers crossed,� her daughter, Melissa Rivers, said in a statement, thanking people who have expressed support for the 81-yearold comedian. Rivers on Friday described her mother’s condition as serious.

Joan Rivers was taken to Mount Sinai Hospital on Thursday, a day after she spoke at an employee event at Time Inc. in New York. Spectators there said she had appeared to be well.

Rivers is the host of “Fashion Police� on E! and presides over an online talk show, “In Bed With Joan.� She also co-stars with her daughter on the WEtv reality show “Joan & Melissa: Joan Knows Best?�

Two of her “Fashion Policeâ€? co-stars tweeted their well-wishes to Joan Rivers and her family Saturday. Â

Coast guard stops searching for pilot CHINCOTEAGUE, Va.-- The Coast Guard has suspended the search for a pilot who lost consciousness and crashed a small airplane into the Atlantic Ocean off the Virginia shore.

Petty Officer Nate Littlejohn says the search was halted Sunday morning after a civilian boater recovered a wheel and engine cowling from the singleengine Cirrus. Littlejohn says the chances of finding anything else were slim.

The plane drifted into restricted airspace over the nation’s capital Saturday afternoon, scrambling fighter jets that stayed with it until it crashed about 50 miles southeast of Chincoteague. The plane had left Waukesha, Wisconsin, and was headed to Manassas, Virginia.

The pilot, whose name has not been released, was the only person on board.

Jackson Police Department spokeswoman Colendula Green says officers continue searching the area where the 2009 Nissan Altima was found Monday morning in west Jackson, near Hawkins Field airport. The car has a Greene County license plate.

The car was found less than a mile from where Beard was reported taken. Â

Beliefs shape opinions of Brown killing Official: 5 dead in small plane crash The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS — Lamont Jones and Keith Stephens stood 60 feet from each other, separated by four lanes of pavement and a thousand miles of perception.

Stephens was wearing a T-shirt printed with a police shield bearing the phrase “OFFICER DARREN WILSON I STAND

BY YOU,� as part of a rally supporting the white policeman who killed 18-year-old Michael Brown, who was unarmed. Jones was across the street, holding up a sign that said, in bloodred letters: “Darren Wilson is a Murderer.�

There was no overlap in the facts as seen by Jones and Stephens at the demonstrations staged a few miles from suburban Ferguson, where Brown was killed. Like many who have closely followed the case, which sparked riots and yet another national racial conflagration, Jones and Stephens had made up their minds.

Like uncounted numbers of Americans, they saw no gray area in the killing of Michael Brown.

Many are convinced there was no justification for Wilson to kill Brown because he was unarmed.

Many others are certain it was justifiable be-

cause they believe Brown threatened Wilson.

Not everyone is so sure.

In a CBS News/New York Times poll, 64 percent of respondents said they didn’t know enough to say whether the shooting was justified. Only about half of respondents said they had paid “a lot� of attention to the case.

But the national furor over Ferguson is fueled by those with strong opinions. They are the people still marching, or calling Brown a thug, or demanding that Wilson be convicted, or implying that Brown deserved his death.

Such strong opinions can often be influenced by “confirmation bias,� psychologists say. A large body of research shows that people search for evidence to support their preexisting viewpoints — and then interpret that information in a way that reinforces their beliefs. “It’s the tendency to seek out and give greater weight to information that confirms what we think rather than contradicts it,� said Scott Plous, a psychology professor at Wesleyan University in Connecticut.

Confirmation bias seemed to be running rampant at the dueling demonstrations.

About 100 Wilson back-

ers, nearly all of them white, gathered outside of Barney’s Sports Pub in St. Louis late last month, brandishing signs like “Heroes Have A Right To Protect Themselves.� A multiracial group of about a dozen Brown supporters stood across the street.

Passing drivers honked in support of one side or the other, screamed obscenities, or raised middle fingers out of windows.

Jones stalked the sidewalk with a silent, smoldering gaze. Asked why his sign called Wilson a murderer, he said Brown was unarmed and was shot with his hands up.

What about the police statement that Brown tried to grab Wilson’s weapon? “Where his witnesses at?� Jones demanded. “(Brown) ran away. He was unarmed.� “Use a stun gun. Taser,�

Jones added. “The facts are, Darren Wilson fired a multitude of six shots into an 18-year-old, who was unarmed . two shots in the arm, the rest in the head and upper torso.�

An autopsy by the Brown family said Brown was hit with four shots in the arm and two in the head.

Might any information emerge that could change Jones’ mind?

“No,� Jones said, gaze steady. “Not at all.�

His parting shot: “Unarmed!�

Across the street, questions about the case were met with a different selection of facts.

People at the Wilson rally brought up the arrest record of Dorian Johnson, the first witness, who said Brown was shot in the back (autopsies indicate the bullets hit him from the front) and with his hands up.

They were quick to mention two unverified accounts that provided support for those who argue Brown rushed toward the officer.

No mention was made of the other three witnesses — Tiffany Mitchell, Piaget Crenshaw and James McKnight — who also said they saw Brown’s hands up. None of those witnesses described Brown rushing toward the officer.

Wilson’s supporters mentioned that Brown stole a box of cigars from a store and roughly shoved the clerk minutes before he encountered Wilson. “That’d say something about your character, right? And then you might start a fight with a cop?� said a plumber who gave his name as James Edwards.

The Associated Press

ERIE, Colo. — All five people aboard a small plane that crashed near an airport north of Denver have died, a spokesman for the National Transportation Board said.

The Piper PA-46 airplane crashed near the Erie Municipal Airport about 11:50 a.m., NTSB spokesman Peter Knudson said Sunday afternoon. Shortly after the crash, three people were declared dead at the scene and two were taken to hospitals.

The Boulder Daily Camera reports that their names and ages are being withheld by the Weld County Coroner’s Office pending notification of relatives.

Erie Police Cmdr.

Lee Mathis said the six-passenger plane crashed a few hundred yards northwest of the runway, but he did not know if it was landing or taking off. A photo of the crash site posted on the Boulder Daily Camera’s website showed the mangled wreckage of the plane, which crashed into a grassy field.

Jan Culver told the newspaper she was with

a friend in a pasture near the airport when she heard the plane and saw it flying “really, really low.� “We heard it sputtering,� she said. “Then there was no sound. We knew it was a crash.�

She saw a small cloud of dust as the plane crashed and, because she has some medical knowledge, went to the scene to help, Culver said. “It was a plane upside down with some folks already out of the plane,� she said. “I could tell there were some bad injuries.�

The Denver Post reported that NTSB records show the airport was the scene of three crashes in 2013 and two in 2012. None of those incidents had a fatality.

The last fatality at the airport was in May 2011, when 64-year-old Christian R. Hansen crashed on takeoff in a plane he was demonstrating for a potential buyer, according to the newspaper.

The autopsy indicated Hansen had a heart attack.

The NTSB is investigating Sunday’s crash.

Erie is about 20 miles north of Denver.

Using mother tongue makes family conversation difficult D E A R ABBY: My son married an educated professional woman from a n o t h e r country.

When their Abigail twins Van Buren born, were my daughterDear Abby in-law imm e r s e d them in her native language so it would become their mother tongue.

Although I understand and respect the benefits of being bilingual, this caused a lot of communication gaps and frustration between us and the grandkids during their early years.

They attend a bilingual elementary school now, and their English is superb and communication between us is great.

The problem is, when we are together, my daughter-in-law speaks to her children exclusively in her native language.

My son understands the conversation, but my husband and I do not know what is being said.

We think this is rude and inconsiderate.

Are we being overly sensitive, or is this common practice in families with multiple languages?

Our relationship with our daughter-in-law is polite and cordial, but not close or inti-

mate.

Any advice? -- LEFT OUT IN FLORIDA DEAR LEFT OUT: This is not unusual in multilingual families, and I agree that it is inconsiderate.

Have you spoken to your son and daughter-in-law about how this makes you feel?

If you haven’t, you should, because she may not be deliberately trying to make you feel excluded.

When you raise the subject, choose your words and tone carefully.

Because if you don’t, your relationship with your daughterin-law could become a lot less cordial than it is.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a 55-yearold gay male who has been with my now-spouse, “Owen,” in a loving, committed relationship since 2005.

While earlier we could not legally marry, in 2006 we had a commitment ceremony bringing together close friends and family to acknowledge and celebrate our relationship.

In 2013, Owen and I were finally able to legally marry in California.

My dilemma comes from people who don’t know what to call us.

People often refer to my spouse as my “friend” or “partner.”

At times I say nothing, but

more often than not, I find myself saying, “Oh, you mean my HUSBAND.” Some of them thank me for the clarification; others just look at me with a blank stare.

Owen never corrects them because he feels it isn’t his place.

I feel it’s my responsibility to do so, first so as to not play down the significance of our relationship, but also to educate these people.

Do you think this is inappropriate? -- MARRIED IN CALIFORNIA DEAR MARRIED: Not at all.

The people who refer to you and Owen as “partners” and “friends” are using terminology that is evolving because marriage among same-sex couples is still relatively new.

As it becomes more commonplace, that will change.

In the meantime, it’s completely appropriate for you and Owen to speak up.

P.S. For any reader who may not already know, gay men refer to their spouse as their husband and lesbians refer to theirs as their wife.

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). It will feel as though you are waiting an awfully long time for what is already supposed to be yours.

The sweetest rewards are often the ones that take the longest to be delivered.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

This is no time to start doing what you’re told. Consider it, yes, but don’t follow the directive blindly just because it seems to be coming from the top.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You will cast your vote in some way, probably with your money.

Before you put in your figurative two cents (which actually costs thousands of cents), think of what you’re voting against, too.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Usually your mischief is spontaneous, but tonight it will benefit you to commit some premeditated misbehavior. In a weird way, it will show that you care.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Impossibilities, quite simply, are not

so. Strike that word from your vocabulary today, and instead hold your mind open to more options than the average logical Joe might consider.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Your environment will only feel as comfortable as the people in it. Those shopping for a new place to live should ask about the neighbors before putting down a deposit.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Doing what you like seems like a luxury now, as there is so much expected of you. Of course, maybe all this work is keeping you out of trouble and making you more useful than you intended to be.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It will feel as though you are in a race. Keep in mind that the one who accomplishes something first often doesn’t get it right.

Take the time to be thorough and test out your theories before presenting them.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The thing (or person) you depend on may not be available, which will inspire you to find new solutions to the problem or, better yet, decide that it never was a problem to begin with.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Memories will be dredged up -- bad ones, good ones and those that are best left uncategorized. Nod to the past as you would a passing acquaintance -“I see you” -- and then move on.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The mistakes show you what you need to work on. They give you direction and purpose.

So don’t be afraid to make a few today. Without them, life will feel rudderless.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

The prize will be yours, but not magically so. You’ll have to work harder for it than you wanted to, but you’re better for the work. In fact, in some way the work will save you.

Age gap too big for online couple WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: I am 74, and “Jane” is 56. We met online, where I said early on that I was not interested in dating because of the age disparity. I simply told her that I liked the expression on her face in the posted photos. She is beautiful.

But within a few months, we fell in love and became intimate. Jane realized it was a mistake and was quick to point it out.

Aside from the age problem, I also suffer from impotence, and the sexual dysfunction had too great an impact. Jane wanted a man who could provide for all her needs.

Jane told me she wanted to stay friends, but I refused. I really fell for her and cannot tolerate the idea that she is sexually involved with another man.

This woman is a complete 10 in her heart and soul.

After we broke up, I went through months of feeling bad. I cried a lot.

But here’s the problem. Jane seems unable to let go of me. She told me once that she liked me more than anyone she had ever known, and she finds me endlessly interesting.

Every month or so, she contacts me. If it happens when I’m strong and happy, I reply, and we have a nice email chat. Of course, eventually she ends up accidentally mentioning her other men, and that caves

me in. Jane would never try to make me jealous, but she has no appreciation for my inability to deal with this. I have tried to go cold turkey and dump her completely, but I seem too susceptible to the possibility that she’ll change her mind and want me as a sweetheart again.

It would be easier if I had other romantic options, but at my age and selectivity, I’m not hopeful. Jane was a mistake that got out of hand, and I’m paying for it. Is there a way to build a strong and lasting friendship with Jane regardless of her involvement with other men? — Too Old Dear Too: No matter how nice Jane is, we suspect she enjoys making you a wee bit jealous.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t mention her male friends. The age gap is not insurmountable, but if a romantic relationship isn’t in the cards, it will take time before you can have the type of friendship you seek.

Since you are so susceptible, it might help to distance yourself more thoroughly from

Dear Annie: I recently took my 5-year-old son to a birthday party for a little girl who turned 7. We put together a birthday present of arts and crafts materials including stickers, stamps, Barbie coloring pages, glitter glue, etc. We thought it was a nice present. However, when the birthday girl opened it, she laughed, and the girl’s best friend commented, “Who would give someone that?”

My son was oblivious, but I was offended. Should I have said something? — Concerned Mom Dear Mom: No. You’re talking about a young girl who is still learning how to respond properly to gifts. We hope she said “thank you,” and we trust her mother will give her pointers on polite and appropriate things to say.

The best friend’s response was rude, but again, little kids need time to learn. The important thing is that you didn’t make a big deal out of it with your son.

We think your gift was lovely.

Pigskin Ole Miss looks to improve Picks

BY DAVID BRANDT AP Sports Writer

BY PIGSKIN PETE news@dailycorinthian.com

Teddy Hinton won Week 1 of Pigskin picks, getting nine out of the 10 games correct. The other games were thrown out as only 10 spots appeared on the entry form.

Twenty-seven entries were submitted this week. Of note, another former quarterback from the area was among a handful of those finishing 8-2. Had he gone with his alma mater he would have finished 9-1 and beaten Hinton on the tie-breaker.

Local Schedule

OXFORD — Mississippi coach Hugh Freeze likes his four running backs, praising them for their depth, toughness and versatility.

Now, he says, all they need is a little room to run.

Ole Miss struggled on offense for three quarters before finally pulling away for a 35-13 victory over Boise State on Thursday. The 18thranked Rebels looked uncomfortable from the start — earning two false starts before the first play was run — and gained just 71 rushing yards the entire night. Though happy with the win on a neutral field at the Georgia Dome, Freeze said the lack of a

ground game was disturbing.

“We played tentative and not very physical,” Freeze said.

“We did a poor job of preparing our kids and we’ve got to get that fixed.”

Ole Miss (1-0) opens Southeastern Conference play against Vanderbilt (0-1) on Saturday in Nashville, Tennessee. The Commodores struggled in their seasonopening 37-7 loss to Temple.

But Freeze said Vanderbilt’s strength is a physical defensive line that will make Ole Miss pay if it doesn’t improve quickly. The Rebels have an elite left tackle in sophomore Laremy Tunsil, but the rest of the offensive line is a work in progress. Freeze said the poor start was a big part of the

problem against Boise State.

Though the early rash of penalties subsided by the second half, the inconsistent play along the offensive line never changed.

Starting running back I’Tavius Mathers managed just 19 yards on eight carries.

Sophomore Mark Dodson — who had a 19-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter — and freshman Jordan Wilkins had a little more success late in the game. Junior Jaylen Walton didn’t have a carry but caught three passes for 51 yards. Freeze said all four worked with the limited space they were given. “They didn’t have anywhere to run,” Freeze said. Ole Miss quarterback Bo Wallace exacerbated the offen-

sive woes by throwing three interceptions. He recovered with a good second half — finishing with 387 yards passing with four touchdowns while completing 25 of 36 passes.

Wallace said he could have done more to help the running game. “A couple times I could’ve checked to a different run,” Wallace said. “After watching the film, I realized that could’ve helped us. Other times, we’ve just got to get a better push on the offensive line. And guys have to hit the hole and hit it hard.”

The SEC looks stacked with good running backs this season, including every-down veterans like Georgia’s Todd Gurley, Alabama’s T.J. Yeldon and South Carolina’s Mike Davis.

Struggling Braves no-hit by 4 Phillies The Associated Press

ATLANTA — With their playoff hopes uncertain, Atlanta’s struggling batters picked a bad time to get nohit by Cole Hamels and three Philadelphia relievers.

“You feel like you’ve hit a good stride,” manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “And all of a sudden you go through a stretch where you score one run in 27 innings, and lucky enough to win one of those games.”

Hamels and the Phillies bullpen combined on the season’s fourth no-hitter, blanking the Atlanta Braves 7-0 Monday. Atlanta lost 4-0 two days earlier to Miami and

beat the Marlins 1-0 Sunday.

The Braves, who had won 11 of 15, began Monday 1? games back in the NL wild-card race.

But nobody could solve Hamels and the Philadelphia bullpen. Jason Heyward drew two walks and stole three bases. Atlanta was otherwise punchless. “He walked a few guys on and he gave us an opportunity,” Justin Upton said after going 0 for 3 with two strikeouts. “We should have executed in that situation, but we didn’t and it just kind of steamrolled from there.”

It was all the more unusual in that Hamels left the game with his bid intact after six innings. He was fine with the

decision, too, having already thrown 108 pitches at a hot afternoon at Turner Field.

“Just understanding the situation, every time I went out there I was battling control issues,” Hamels said. “I wasn’t getting ahead of guys. Walking the leadoff hitter will put you in a lot of trouble, and it does. It builds up your pitch count.”

Hamels (8-6) struck out seven, matched a season high with five walks and hit a batter. Relievers Jake Diekman, Ken Giles and closer Jonathan Papelbon each pitched a perfect inning to finish off the gem. A smiling Hamels watched from

the bench as they finished off what he started.

Clayton Kershaw and Josh Beckett of the Dodgers and Tim Lincecum of the Giants threw no-hitters earlier this year. Right fielder Marlon Byrd foiled the Braves’ best bid for a hit. With runners on second and third in the third inning, Byrd raced in and toward the line to make a diving catch on Chris Johnson’s slicing liner to end the inning.

Johnson came close again in the ninth with a grounder up the middle. Shortstop Jimmy Rollins ranged behind the bag to make the play.

Worley, defense spark Vols to Sunday win The Associated Press

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Justin Worley loves playing with Tennessee’s talented group of newcomers.

They helped Worley to a successful return from thumb surgery on Sunday night.

Worley threw for 273 yards and three touchdowns, and the Volunteers beat Utah State 38-7 in a game matching two quarterbacks returning from injuries.

Worley completed his first 13 passes of the second half in his first appearance since missing Tennessee’s final four games last season.

He was 27 of 38 overall, connecting with 10 different receivers.

He said he benefited from having more playmakers around him, thanks in part to

the arrival of a heralded recruiting class.

“I didn’t have the nerves I’ve had in the past,” Worley said. “It goes back to my confidence level, the confidence I have in these guys, the confidence I have in the offensive scheme and everything.

This being the second year (as a starter), my confidence is a lot higher. I tried to go out there and play like that.”

Worley threw touchdown passes to Brendan Downs, Von Pearson and Jalen Hurd in front of a sellout crowd of 102,455 at Neyland Stadium.

His 27 completions were a career high.

“He played winning football at the quarterback position,” Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. “He managed the offense.” Worley outper-

formed Chuckie Keeton, who was playing for the first time since tearing the anterior cruciate and medial collateral ligaments in his left knee last October.

Keeton went 18 of 35 for 144 yards with two interceptions and one touchdown pass. He also ran for 12 yards on eight carries.

Tennessee is relying heavily on newcomers as it attempts to end a string of four straight losing seasons, and they wasted no time making an impact. By the midway point of the first quarter, Tennessee already had played 16 true freshmen, the most ever used by the Vols in a season opener. They ended up using 21 true freshmen.

Two of Worley’s TD passes went to newcomers; Hurd

is a freshman and Pearson a junior-college transfer.

Todd Kelly Jr., another freshman, had a fumble recovery that set up a touchdown.

“You can’t really focus on one guy,” Worley said. “There are several guys we can attack you with.”

Utah State, one of only nine Football Bowl Subdivision teams to win at least 20 games combined in the 2012 and 2013 seasons, has a reputation for scaring big-name opponents and playing well away from home. But the Aggies didn’t put up much of a fight Sunday.

“There’s obviously nothing positive that we can take way from the field,” Utah State offensive tackle Kevin Whimpey said.
