Caterpillar plans new logistics facility

Investment creates 35 new jobs, total workforce of 115 BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

A new facility for Caterpillar will house warehouse and logistics operations and create 35 jobs over the next three years, officials announced Thursday afternoon. Caterpillar, which has remanufacturing operations in Corinth and Booneville, will invest $7.5 million in new equipment. Jumper Realty is investing $27 million to construct the 540,000-square-foot facility, which will be leased to the manufacturer of earth-moving equipment. The facility on South Harper Road will replace six smaller warehouse and distribution facilities in Alcorn and Prentiss counties which are operated through short-term leases. Eighty existing employees will move from those scattered facilities to the new location, for a total workforce of 115. It will be known as Caterpillar’s Mississippi Logistics Service Center and will be managed by Nicki Rambeau. Gov. Phil Bryant joined local officials to break ground for the facility, which is a project that has been in planning for about two years. He praised the com-

pany’s commitment to its Mississippi operations. “If you’re going to get a bulldozer,” he said, “You say, ‘I really want to get a CAT.’ These big yellow machines out here have moved the world, and now they’re going to help us move Mississippi even further forward.” Mayor Tommy Irwin said the city and county are contributing grant matching funds for infrastructure improvements. “Manpower Road just to the west will be greatly improved to handle the increased truck traffic between Caterpillar facilities,” he said. Board of Supervisors President Lowell Hinton praised the local partnerships that brought the project to fruition. “These jobs are vital to the residents of Alcorn County,” he said. Rambeau said Caterpillar Logistics unloaded 26,000 and loaded 37,000 trucks during the past year. The logistics operation allows the remanufacturing facilities to focus on their core competency, she said. The remanufacturing process takes end-of-life engines back

American History, where engraved stone and flowing water tell the story of the birth and growth of the United States, the rise of sectionalism, important events leading to the Civil War and a symbolic representation of the four years of war. Another program will focus on the sidewalk outside the Interpretive Center, where bronze sculptures represent the detritus of war. The program “Letters Home” will look at the way soldiers of the era communicated with their friends and families through written correspondence. The Junior Ranger Day activities will take place at the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center from 10 a.m. until noon. Registration is recommended due to limited space. Contact the Interpretive Center at 2879273 to register.

On this day in history 150 years ago Gen. Beauregard creates a “badge of merit” to be given to those officers and private soldiers “who shall greatly distinguish himself in any engagement with the enemy.” The badge is to have inscribed the name of the battle in which it was won.

Alliance President Gary Chandler said it is a pivotal event for the area. “They not only provide good jobs for many in our region, their employees are involved in countless good work efforts in our communities,” he said. “The impact of this project truly sets the stage for Caterpillar to thrive and grow in Corinth and Alcorn County for years to come.” He praised the local teamwork. “The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors and the City of Corinth have shown beyond a doubt to be a formidable economic development team, working collaboratively to make this project happen,” he said. “Their commitment to the local match for the public infrastructure improvements was fundamental in completing this deal. I applaud their leadership and vision in helping this project become reality. “This project further demonstrates Corinth

“The impact of this project truly sets the stage for Caterpillar to thrive and grow in Corinth and Alcorn County for years to come.” Gary Chandler Alliance president and Alcorn County’s ability to grow and support Fortune 50 companies such as a global manufacturing leader like Caterpillar,” said Chandler. “We look forward to telling Corinth’s Caterpillar success story to companies and site selection consultants around the globe. “The Alliance’s economic development team and I have devoted a significant amount of time and resources to this project over the past two years. Projects like this require a complete united effort and, without all of our economic development partners functioning in unison, we would not be able to garner wins like this one today.”

Dirt moving operations are already underway on the 540,000-square-foot logistics facility.

Corinth police respond to 2,900 calls a month Special to the Daily Corinthian

The week of May 14 is designated annually as National Police Week. This week was established in 1962 by President John F. Kennedy to remember fallen police officers and honor those who are currently serving as officers. Special remembrance ceremonies will be held at the national and state level this week in Washington, D.C., and in Jackson to remember the sacrifice of officers killed in the line of duty. The Corinth Police Department is strongly committed to its mission

to protect and serve the citizens of Corinth. With 30 square miles to patrol, CPD officers respond to an average of 2,900 calls per month. Police officers perform a dangerous job, and risk their own safety to protect the lives of others. An officer’s job is very demanding and requires many different skills. The officer’s daily work can range from high-adrenaline moments, such as responding to an emergency or apprehending a criminal, to less-intense daily service activities, such as patrolling a neighborhood or talking

with a school group. Each member of the department has unique talents and abilities, and each officer contributes to the effectiveness of the team. Police Chief David Lancaster believes that the support of the community is essential to the CPD. This week, Chief Lancaster enjoyed a nice surprise as he received several boxes of cookies delivered to the department by a local Girl Scout troop. The gift included a hand-written note, signed by the scouts, which simply said, “Thanks for keeping us safe.” It might seem like a small gift,

but these expressions of gratitude and community appreciation have a very positive impact on the morale of the CPD. Chief Lancaster places a high priority on community relations, and he encourages his officers to have an active and positive role in local schools, community organizations and events. Chief Lancaster also emphasizes the importance of providing top-quality training so that officers can go “above and beyond” their basic duties to provide the highest level of service and protection to the public.

Museum offers summer camp BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Local youth can get a taste of hardtack, learn about Douglas the camel and find out how to hunt for Civil War relics at this year’s summer camp at the Crossroads Museum. Camp is set for May 28 to June 1 for ages 5 to 10 and June 4 to June 8 for ages 11 to 14, both from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. daily. The popular sum-

mer camp offers youth a chance to learn about history in one of Corinth’s historic settings while having fun. Museum Director Brandy Steen said the camp will tie into the continuing Civil War Sesquicentennial theme, and she hopes to have some reenactors involved. “I’m really excited to be working with the children of the community,”

said Steen. “I hope that the kids will enjoy it and will be able to learn more about Corinth and its importance during the Civil War.” The younger group will do activities during the morning and watch a movie during the afternoon. The older group will get a little deeper into history with a visit to the Civil War Interpretive Center, a walking tour of

downtown and downtown homes and a look at a day in the life of a soldier. They will also bite into some hardtack, the durable crackers that were eaten by Civil War soldiers. Parents can register their children early or on the day of camp. The cost is $10 per day. Contact Steen at 2873120 or director@crossroadsmuseum.com for more information.

DOJ’s disrespectful remark raises concern about fairness North Carolina’s governor took a shot at Mississippi recently on the heels of what she saw as an embarrassing victory at the polls of a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between one man and one woman in her state. Gov. Beverly Perdue told a crowd in Greenville, N.C., that people around the country must be confused at such an outcome in such a progressive state. “Folks are saying what in the world is going on in North Carolina,” Perdue said. “We look like Mississippi.” Some Mississippi officials took offense at the remark, but it seemed to be mostly shrugged off. Perdue’s utterances are weightless here. But another zinger aimed at Mississippi recently deserves a little more attention. In a Facebook post in March, a U.S. Department of Justice civil rights analyst suggested Mississippi should change its motto from the Magnolia State to “Mississippi: Disgusting and shameful,” prompting an emotional response from Mississippi Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann at a news conference. Hosemann correctly blasted the remark as “irresponsible” and wondered out loud whether the comment betrayed a DOJ prejudice against Mississippi that could affect its ruling on the Voter Identification law, which is currently awaiting the department’s approval. Regardless of where one stands on the voter ID question, the remark by the DOJ employee and the response to Hosemann’s complaint about it in a letter from her supervisor are disturbing. T. Christian Herren Jr., chief of the voting section of the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, confirmed the post but said the reference was to an incident at a University of Southern Mississippi basketball game where USM band members taunted a player on the opposing team chanting, “Where’s your green card?” The player was Puerto Rican. ... If the employee’s comment was a response to the game incident, it still shows a willingness to smear the entire state for an infraction by a few. Or maybe it reveals a deep-seated attitude about Mississippi. Either way, it’s not the kind of thinking you want at a federal department charged with helping assure justice and fairness for all Americans. ... — The Clarion-Ledger, Columbus

As the boomers head for the barn When the April figures on unemployment were released May 4, they were more than disappointing. They were deeply disturbing. While the unemployment rate had fallen from 8.2 percent to 8.1 percent, 342,000 workers had stopped looking for work. They had just dropped out of the labor market. Only 63.6 percent of the U.S. working age population is now in the labor force, the lowest level since December 1981. During the Reagan, Bush I and Clinton years, participation in the labor force rose steadily to a record 67 percent. The plunge since has been almost uninterrupted. Here is a major cause of the economic malaise of the 21st century, a condition over which a president has little control. A shrinking share of our population is carrying an ever-expanding army of dependents. The number of Americans of working age not in the labor force grew in April from 87,897,000 to 88,419,000 -- by an astonishing 522,000. This is an immense army for the rest of society to carry. Why are Americans dropping out? Some have given up looking for jobs in towns they grew up in, because the jobs

are gone and not coming back, and they don’t want to leave. Some are Pat rejecting the Buchanan l o w - w a g e unskilled Columnist work being offered, because the alternative -unemployment checks and federal and state welfare -is not all that torturous. With some, the work incentive was never implanted. With others, the option of moving back in with the parents is not all that terrible. America, it seems, is becoming less like the country we grew up in, in its attitudes about work and idleness, and more like Europe. Whatever its causes, this social and economic torpor that seems beyond the capacity of presidents to correct or cure is a dark cloud over the hopes of Barack Obama for a second term. And yet another ominous cloud, no longer on the far horizon, is now directly above: the impending departure from the labor force of 70 million baby boomers in the next two decades. According to the Statistical Abstract of the United States, from Jan. 1, 1930, to Dec. 31, 1935, there were 13 million births in the U.S.

From January 1940 through December 1945, there were 16 million. This was the Silent Generation, born in Depression and war. It never produced a president, and never will, unless Ron Paul catches fire pretty quickly. The Greatest Generation gave us six presidents, starting with JFK and ending with Bush I. Our three most recent presidents -- Bill Clinton, Bush II, Barack Obama -are all baby boomers. And here we come to the heart of our next economic crisis. If one adds up all the children born between Jan. 1, 1946 and Jan. 1, 1965, the era of the great American baby boom, the total comes to 77 million babies born in the United States. Why is this so significant now? Because this year, 2012, the first wave of baby boomers, all those born in 1946, like Clinton and George W. Bush, will reach 66, and eligibility for full Social Security and Medicare benefits. The boomers, en masse, will start moving off payrolls onto pension rolls. Let us assume the 77 million boomers are down to 72 million. This means that over the next 20 years, boomers will be retiring and reaching eligibility for Social Security and Medi-

care at a rate of 3.6 million a year, or 300,000 a month, or 10,000 every day. Three hundred thousand a month leaving the labor force may help to explain its shrinkage. And as the boomers are the best-paid, best-educated generation we produced, the loss of their collective skills, abilities and tax contributions will be as heavy a blow to the nation as the funding of their Medicare and Social Security will be a burden to the taxpayers they leave behind in the labor force. In 1965, LBJ announced his plan to convert our ordinary society into a Great Society. Since then, trillions have been spent. The fruits of that immense investment? The illegitimacy rate, dropout rate, crime rate and incarceration rate have set new records, as the test scores of high school students have plummeted to new lows. Our labor force is shrinking, the number of dependent U.S. adults is growing, our social programs are failing, and our best educated and most productive generation is retiring. To borrow from Merle Haggard, “Are the good times really over for good?” (Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?”)

Obama campaign focuses on Mitt Romney, vampire Mitt Romney went into the wrong line of work. If only he had been a lecturer in constitutional law, he wouldn’t have a business record vulnerable to distortion by a desperate incumbent president. Barack Obama’s hands, in contrast, are clean. He taught at the University of Chicago Law School and didn’t make the mistake of attempting to start, acquire or turn around companies. He has no business failures because he has no business successes -- if you don’t count selling books about himself to the adoring multitudes. The president’s re-election campaign is out with a scorching advertisement hitting Romney for one of Bain Capital’s flops, a steel firm that it bought and that eventually went under. This is an instance, according to one of the former steelworkers appearing in the ad, of “vampire” capitalism. The nefarious Romney swooped down on the thriving company and drained it of its life force. If it were a business-school case study, it could have been authored by Bram Stoker.

Or so we’re told. GS Industries is hardly the morality tale the Obama Rich re-election Lowery c a m p a i g n makes of it. National Bain CapiReview tal didn’t acquire the company to drive it into the ground for fun and profit. Bain wanted to make it work -- despite its outdated equipment, union strife and punishing competition, foreign and domestic. Bain failed, but not for lack of trying over seven years. Soon after Bain acquired it in 1993, the steel company announced a $98 million plant modernization and merged with another firm to form, in the words of a Reuters report, “one of the largest mini-mill steel producers in the U.S.” This is a funny way to go about destroying a company. Bain loaded the firm with debt and took out a dividend, but it reinvested part of the dividend in the operation. It reportedly spurned a po-

tential offer to buy the firm around the end of 1997. All the effort went for naught. The management proved incompetent. Cheap imports undercut prices. And the firm was unionized. GS went bankrupt in 2001 (two years after Romney left Bain, as it happens). It was a messy affair, with the U.S. Pension Benefit Guaranty Corp. picking up the pieces from the company’s underfunded pension. Its experience wasn’t unusual, alas. Dozens of steel companies died in the same period, including the iconic Bethlehem Steel. Employment in the steel industry has undergone a historic contraction. From 1980 to the beginning of the new century, the steel industry in the U.S. lost more than half its workers. Japan and Germany also experienced declines in employment, as advances in productivity made it possible to produce more with fewer people. Far from causing this trend, Bain was trying to find a way to ride it out. Where it failed with GS, it succeeded with Steel Dynamics. In the mid-1990s,

Bain invested in and raised capital for the technologically innovative mini-mill that became one of the largest U.S. steel companies. It eventually sold its stake in 1999, making a massive return for its investors while Steel Dynamics is now generating $6 billion in revenue and employing more than 6,000 people. If this were a government-subsidized green-energy project rather than the inspired work of imaginative executives and sharp-eyed financiers, President Obama would have already given a celebratory speech at its plant. Even if the Obama account of GS were fair (it’s not), it’s dishonest to discuss it without connecting it to Steel Dynamics and the larger context of private equity’s role in American capitalism’s creative churn. Cheap and unworthy, all that can be said for the attack on Bain is that it meets the standards of the Obama re-election campaign. (Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review.

Post office named for fallen soldier IUKA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The U.S. Post Office in Iuka will be renamed the Sergeant Jason W. Vaughn Post Office under legislation signed by President Obama. U.S. Rep. Alan Nunnelee, R-Miss., says the president signed the bill this week. The 29-year-old Vaughn, of Iuka, died May 10, 2007, when a roadside bomb exploded near his vehicle in Baqubah, Iraq. He was serving his second tour and was a member of the Stryker Brigade based in Fort Lewis, Wash. He was buried with full military honors at Oak Grove Cemetery in Iuka. He is the son of Daily Corinthian â&#x20AC;&#x153;Historically Speakingâ&#x20AC;? columnist RaNae Vaughn with the Tishomingo County Historical & Genealogical Society.

McClelland said the board is still discussing a search process to find a new permanent superintendent and that board members want to be able to take their time to look for a new leader. House has served in her current role since 2010.

Sagging pants ban passes COLUMBUS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The city of Columbus is another step closer to banning saggy pants. The city council voted 4-2 this week to give initial approval of a new ordinance against â&#x20AC;&#x153;saggingâ&#x20AC;? or below-the-waist pants. The ordinance will take effect in 30 days. The ordinance is a revision of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current indecent exposure policy. Several Mississippi communities have adopted ordinances im-

posing fines for too-low trousers, though such regulations have often faced questions about their legality. Yet the trend has hung around. City attorney Jeff Turnage said the current ordinanceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wording was not unconstitutional. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I did have concerns about an ordinance that regulates dress because the way a person dresses may be a manner of expressing themselves,â&#x20AC;? Turner said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But this ordinance limits the likelihood that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an expression of speech.â&#x20AC;? The Columbus ordinance sets up a system of fines ranging from $75 to $250 for those found in violation. Although community service may be added as part of the sentence, violators will not be arrested or incarcerated unless they do not pay their fines as determined by Columbus Municipal Court.

JACKSON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Jimmy Buffett told gambling regulators Thursday that next weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opening of his new Margaritaville Casino and Resort will be exciting, but creating jobs along his native Mississippi Gulf Coast has been a rewarding experience in itself. Buffet was in Jackson on Thursday when the Mississippi Gaming Commission deemed him â&#x20AC;&#x153;suitableâ&#x20AC;? for involvement in the casino, set to open Tuesday in Biloxi. Gaming Commission Chairman Jerry St. Pe told Buffett heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d already been approved, but showing up in person was required as part of the certification process. In interviews after his brief commission appearance, the singer-songwriter wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say if heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll perform at the casinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

grand opening, but he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rule it out, either. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a shameless musician and coming home seems like a party to me,â&#x20AC;? he said. Buffett was born in Pascagoula, Miss., and said he made his â&#x20AC;&#x153;first professional dollar in Biloxi back in the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;60sâ&#x20AC;? so heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s excited to bring â&#x20AC;&#x153;a thousand new jobs to the Gulf Coast at a time theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re needed.â&#x20AC;? Â

Voter ID bill signed, awaits fedsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; scrutiny JACKSON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant on Thursday signed a bill requiring voters to show photo identification at the polls, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unclear whether it will become law. Because of Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history of racial discrimination, the state is required to get federal approval for any change in election laws or proce-

dures. The U.S. Justice Department in recent months has rejected voter ID laws from Texas and South Carolina. The state chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People is asking the department to reject Mississippiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed law, saying it could disproportionately create hardships for poor, elderly or minority voters who might be less likely to have a photo ID. Legislative debates about voter ID have been sharply divided along racial lines for years. No black officials attended the bill signing ceremony in the governorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Capitol office. Bryant was surrounded by several fellow Republicans and some tea party members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The legislation makes it easy to obtain a photo ID and put it in the hands of all voters,â&#x20AC;? Bryant said.

House to get interim state superintendent JACKSON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Mississippi Board of Education plans to name Lynn House as interim state superintendent Friday. The board chose House, now deputy superintendent for instructional enhancement and internal operations, following a closed meeting Thursday. It will formally ratify the choice Friday. House, 60, will replace Tom Burnham, who announced earlier this month that he would retire July 1. Charles McClelland of Jackson, chairman of the board, said House will not be a candidate to permanently replace Burnham.

Freed man must write book reports Associated Press

RICHMOND, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A man charged in an undercover sting operation in Northern California that ended in gunfire has been ordered released on bond on the condition that he read and write book reports.

U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers allowed 23-year-old Otis Mobley to be freed Monday, although she delayed an order to allow prosecutors to appeal her decision. Under the bond order, Mobley would be required to spend an hour reading

and a half hour writing each day as he awaits trial on robbery and assault charges. Mobley and two others are accused of arranging to sell a grenade launcher for $1,000 to an undercover federal agent in Richmond.

Disco Queen Donna Summer dies NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Like the King of Pop or the Queen of Soul, Donna Summer was bestowed a title fitting of musical royalty â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the Queen of Disco. Yet unlike Michael Jackson or Aretha Franklin, it was a designation she wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t comfortable embracing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I grew up on rock â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;nâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; roll,â&#x20AC;? Summer once said when explaining her reluctance to claim the title. Indeed, as disco boomed then crashed in a single decade in the 1970s, Summer, the beautiful voice and face of the genre with pulsating hits like â&#x20AC;&#x153;I Feel Love,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Love to Love You Babyâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last Dance,â&#x20AC;? would continue to make hits incorporating the rock roots she so loved. One of her biggest hits, â&#x20AC;&#x153;She Works Hard for the Money,â&#x20AC;? came in the early 1980s and relied on a smoldering guitar solo as well as Summerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s booming voice. Yet it was with her disco anthems that she would have the most impact in music, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how she was remembered Thursday as news spread of her death at age 63. Her family released a statement saying she died Thursday morning and they â&#x20AC;&#x153;are at peace celebrating her extraordinary life and her continued legacy.â&#x20AC;? The family did not disclose the cause of death. She had been living in Florida with her husband, Bruce Sudano. Â

Govâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sets stiff tariffs on solar panels WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Obama administration moved Thursday to impose stiff new tariffs on solar panels made in China, finding that Chinese companies are improperly flooding the U.S. market with governmentsubsidized products. The Commerce Department said Chinese producers had dumped solar cells and panels in the United States at margins ranging from 31 percent to nearly 250 percent. If the preliminary ruling is upheld, tariffs averaging 31 percent could be imposed on Chinese solar-panel imports. The tariffs would be

in addition to fees ranging from 2.9 percent to 4.73 percent imposed in March after the department found that China is improperly subsidizing its solar manufacturers. The tariffs announced Thursday were higher than expected and could ratchet up trade tensions between the two countries. Several U.S. solar panel makers, led by Oregon-based SolarWorld, had asked the government to penalize China for dumping lowprice products on U.S. markets. The companies are struggling against fierce competition from China as well as weakening demand in Europe and other key markets, just as President Barack Obama is working to promote renewable energy. U.S. companiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; complaints about their Chinese rivals have been amplified by the controversy surrounding Solyndra Inc., a Californiabased solar panel maker that went bankrupt last year after winning a halfbillion-dollar federal loan from the Obama administration. Solyndraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s collapse embarrassed Obama and prompted sharp criticism from Mitt Romney and other Republicans who are critical of Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s green energy policies. Solyndra, which is not involved in the trade case, cited Chinese competition as a key reason for its failure. A majority of U.S. solar panel installers oppose tariffs on Chinese panels, arguing that less expensive imports have helped make solar panels more affordable for U.S. customers. The companies also worried that China could retaliate against U.S. companies, noting that Chinese authorities have announced their own probe into whether U.S. support for renewable energy companies hurts foreign suppliers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the first step to a trade war between the U.S. and China,â&#x20AC;? said Jigar Shah, leader of a coalition of solar companies that oppose U.S. tariffs. Â

sign for wildfires in the West. The forecast for June through August calls for warmer-than-normal weather for about threequarters of the nation, the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration said Thursday. The warmth is expected south of a line stretching from middle New Jersey to southern Idaho. Only tiny portions of northwestern U.S. and Alaska are predicted to be cooler than average and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only for June, not the rest of the summer. Last May until April was the hottest 12-month period on record for the nation with records going back to 1895. This year so far has seen the hottest March, the third warmest April and the fourth warmest January and February in U.S. weather history. And it was one of the least snowy years on record in the Lower 48. Some people called it the year without winter. And the outlook for summer is â&#x20AC;&#x153;more of the same,â&#x20AC;? said Jon Gottschalck, head of forecast operations at NOAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Climate Prediction Center in Camp Springs, Md. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely a tilt toward being above normal through the summer.â&#x20AC;? For some areas of the Southwest that could mean temperatures 1 or even 2 degrees warmer than normal on average, and maybe close to half a degree warmer than normal in the East, he said. One of the reasons is that much of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s soil is already unusually dry. So the sun doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use as much energy evaporating water in the soil and instead heats up the air near the ground even more, Gottschalck said. Forecasters say the combination of the heat and dryness will only make western wildfires worse. The fire season has already gotten off to a dramatic start. Wildfires in northern Arizona and northern Colorado forced residents to flee their homes on Thursday. Â

Hot summer a bad sign for wildfires

Postal Service begins closing plants

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; And the heat goes on. Forecasters predict toasty temperatures will stretch through the summer in the U.S. And thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bad

WASHINGTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The nearly bankrupt U.S. Postal Service is moving forward with a multibillion-dollar cost-cutting plan that will close nearly 250 mail processing centers, saying on Thursday it can no longer wait as Congress remains deadlocked over how to help. At a news briefing, Postmaster General Patrick Donahoe said the agencyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mail processing network had simply become too big, given declining first-class mail volume and mounting debt. It will now consolidate nearly 250 plants as originally proposed, including 48 this summer, but will stretch out the remainder over a longer time frame in 2013 and 2014. Earlier this month, nearly half the Senate had written letters to Donahoe asking that he hold off on closing any mail facility until Congress could pass final postal overhaul legislation. The Senate last month passed a bill that would halt many of the closings. The House remains stalled over a separate postal measure allowing for more aggressive cuts. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To return to long-term profitability and financial stability while keeping mail affordable, we must match our network to the anticipated workload,â&#x20AC;? Donahoe said. Failure to do so, he stressed, would â&#x20AC;&#x153;create a fiscal hole that the Postal Service will not be able to climb out of.â&#x20AC;?

IPOs: caveat emptor Often a hot initial public stock offering shoots up the first day and then goes cold. Few average investors will be able to buy Facebook at its IPO price, and buying after the stock starts trading Friday may be risky. Two of last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most popular Internet-related IPOs are trading below their first-day closing price. A third is just slightly above.

LINKEDIN (LNKD)

GROUPON (GRPN)

Debut: May 19 Stock in the professional networking company more than doubled on its first day. It then slumped some 40 percent by November after the company reported a loss in the third quarter. Lately, investors are encouraged by growing profits â&#x20AC;&#x201D; $5 million in the first quarter, up from $2.1 million a year earlier. â&#x20AC;&#x2122;11 â&#x20AC;&#x2122;12

ZYNGA (ZNGA)

Debut: Nov. 4

Debut: Dec. 16

The stock of the daily deals company has been battered. In March, the company restated its fourth-quarter earnings because it failed to set aside enough for refunds. Earlier this month the stock fell below $10, half its offering price. Strong first quarter revenue and news of a growing customer base have since caused the price to rise.

The maker of â&#x20AC;&#x153;FarmVilleâ&#x20AC;? and other Facebook games saw its stock decline in its debut. But shares climbed 67 percent by March. Investors were encouraged by the creation of Zynga.com, a separate gaming site. A first-quarter net loss has helped push the stock back below its offering price.

Ann earnings

Hibbett Sports earnings

The parent company of womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clothing retail chains Ann Taylor and Loft reports first quarter results today. Wall Street expects Annâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s adjusted earnings will be flat versus the same period last year, but is looking for a bump in revenue. The retailer struggled in the last quarter of fiscal 2011 with slumping sales at Ann Taylor stores and higher-than-expected promotional activity.

Brisk demand for athletic shoes and active wear has helped perk up Hibbett Sportsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sales of late. The retailer enjoyed double-digit sales growth in the November-toJanuary quarter, and investors now expect another strong performance for the February-to-April period as consumers stocked up on sportswear in advance of summer. The Birmingham, Ala., retailer reports fiscal first-quarter results today.

3A Championship Series

Big innings doom Aggies in opener BY BLAKE LONG For the Daily Corinthian

JACKSON — Kossuth starting pitcher Tyler Nelms felt the strike zone was a little tight in Game 1 of the Class 3A championship series. “Something was wrong with them (close pitches),” he said. “I was throwing it right down the coffee can for them.” Southeast Lauderdale took advantage of that with two big innings in their 7-1 victory, ruining the Aggies’ first game in school history at the MHSAA Baseball Championships. Kossuth will try to avoid a sweep in Game 2 of the series, which is slated for 4 p.m. Saturday. The Tigers, meanwhile, will go for their first state title since the mid 1960’s. “We’re a spot pitching team, and we just didn’t get the calls on the corners of the plate today,” Kossuth coach Daniel Threadgill said. “That’s base-

ball and that’s the way it is.” Ten of the Tigers’ 11 hits came in the third and fifth innings, when Southeast Lauderdale (31-6) scored all its runs. Cody Shirley and Hunter Thrower sandwiched singles around a strikeout to start the bottom of the third. Shirley scored on Gage Hagan’s sacrifice fly after both runners advanced on a passed ball to put the Tigers up 1-0. Two straight extra-base hits with two outs extended Southeast Lauderdale’s lead. LeDarius Clark knocked a standup triple in the gap and then came home a batter later on Mason Irby’s opposite field double for a 3-0 advantage. Jordan Brawner collected his second outfield assistin as many games, gunning Irby at the plate on Blake McMullen’s single to end the frame. The Aggies (24-7) got on the board in the fifth when Dylan Rider’s sharp grounder

went off Southeast Lauderdale starter Colby Ramey’s foot, scoring David Gibson and cutting their deficit to 3-1. However, a four-run bottom half for the Tigers stole Kossuth’s momentum and chased Nelms (8-2). McMullen’s 2-RBI single was followed by Matt Miller’s double that scored two more runs to make it 7-1. John Mitchell relieved Nelms and retired all four batters he faced, three by strikeout. “Different guys came through at times,” Tigers coach Shay Cooper said. “There’s been a lot of people contribute to our success. I can’t say enough about the whole lineup.” Ramey (9-2) tossed a complete game, allowing five hits and inducing fly balls in spacious Smith-Wills Stadium. “We hit some long balls that they got back on were able to catch deep in the outfield,”

Threadgill said. “But that’s what you deal with.” Kossuth is now faced with another test of adversity, needing a win Saturday to force a Game 3 Monday. Nelms, though, is not worried about his team. “They know what to do, I don’t have to tell them anything,” the senior said. “We’re ready to go.” Cooper said his plans were to start Clark in Game 2 Saturday, while Threadgill will stick with Gibson as his starter.

region champs scored five in the fifth to take a 7-5 lead. Senior Dakota Roden (112) went the distance, allowing only one run over the final three frames. Roden — named the District 14-AA Most Valuable Player last week — also contributed a pair of hits in the affair. Brady Dancer led the Bobcats at the dish, going 3-for-4

with an important opposite field single in the five-run fifth. Jonathan Nixon also had a pair of hits for McNairy. MC came into the contest 0-3 all-time in region title games.

Crawford’s 2 RBIs help Giants beat Cardinals 7-5 BY JOSH DUBOW Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Matt Cain has had more than his share of stellar performances that ended up without a win because of a lack of support. That’s why the San Francisco Giants felt so good about picking up their star pitcher on a day he wasn’t at his best. Brandon Crawford hit a two-run single for his first

RBIs since April and the Giants capitalized on shoddy fielding by St. Louis to overcome Cain’s slow start and beat the Cardinals 7-5 on Thursday. “Matt was out of sorts there early. He was just out of synch, just trying to find himself,” manager Bruce Bochy said. “He got better. That shows you how tough this guy is. He ended up pitching

a pretty good game. It was nice to get him a win like that with all the tough games he’s worked where we couldn’t get him runs.” St. Louis made three errors in a game for the second time this week with the most important coming in the sixth inning: Third baseman David Freese’s errant throw on pinch-hitter Aubrey Huff’s two-out grounder allowed

Belt to score the go-ahead run. First baseman Lance Berkman also made an error in the second inning to help lead to Crawford’s two-run single. Three of the five runs scored off Adam Wainwright (2-5) were unearned. “That’s not the kind of defense we’ve been accustomed to seeing this year and not the Please see CARDINALS | 9A

Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — Suspended Saints linebacker Jonathan Vilma filed a defamation lawsuit Thursday against NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, claiming the league’s top executive made false statements that tar-

nished Vilma’s reputation and hindered his ability to earn a living playing football. The suit in U.S. District Court in New Orleans claims Goodell, “relied on, at best, hearsay, circumstantial evidence and lies” in making comments about Vilma while discussing the NFL’s bounty

investigation of the New Orleans Saints. Goodell has said Vilma was a leader of the team’s bounty program that put up thousands of dollars for hits which took out opposing teams’ star players from 2009-11, including $10,000 each on thenArizona quarterback Kurt

Warner and then-Minnesota quarterback Brett Favre during the playoffs in 2010. “Commissioner Goodell opted to make very public and unfortunately erroneous allegations against Jonathan,” said Vilma’s attorney, Please see VILMA | 9A

kind of defense we’re going to see the rest of the way,” manager Mike Matheny said. “It’s just one of those games.” Cain (3-2) has been plagued by poor run support for his entire career with the Giants scoring a major league-low 3.89 runs per game for him since his first big league season in 2006. But with help from the Cardinals they managed to score five runs with Cain in the game on Thursday to make up for his rough start that included Matt Holliday’s two-run homer in the third inning. Cain won for just the fifth time in 54 career starts when he allowed four earned runs. “It’s usually the other way around,” Belt said. “He’s usually battling his butt off like he did today and he’s not getting the run support. Fortunately today we helped him out and got him the W.” Santiago Casilla pitched the ninth for his ninth save in 10 chances. Cain came into the game with the second best ERA at home in the majors this season, having allowed four runs in 33 innings for a 1.09 mark. He allowed as many runs in the first three innings against the Cardinals as he had in his previous four starts here. He allowed sacrifice flies by Holliday and Freese in the first inning and Holliday’s two-run homer in the third to fall behind 4-3. Cain retired 10 of the final 11 batters he faced. He allowed eight hits in six innings. “I started out a little rough,” Cain said. “I was kind of all over the place a little bit. A lot of pitches seemed like they were cutting back toward the middle. I wasn’t making good quality pitches and they were taking advantage of it. The guys hung in there with me and got some runs and got the runs we needed and got the win. Crawford doubled and scored on Buster Posey’s single in the first and then hit his two-run single in the second for the Giants, ending a string of 16 straight games without driving in a run. Cain ended up on the winning side when the Giants scored twice in the sixth. Emmanuel Burriss tied it with a sacrifice fly and Freese’s errant throw allowed the go-ahead run to score. Wainwright allowed eight hits in 5 2-3 innings. After winning 20 games in 2010, Wainwright is still working his way back after missing last season with an elbow injury.

Peter Ginsberg. “By making these false and public statements, he has significantly harmed Jonathan’s reputation and ability to make a living. “By suing Commissioner Goodell in court, Jonathan opted to use a fair playing field where he has procedural rights and protections to remedy the harm Commissioner Goodell has done to him.” Vilma wrote on his Twitter account that, “As I’ve said before..I NEVER PAID, NOR INTENDED TO PAY ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY, TO ANY PLAYER FOR INTENTIONALLY HURTING AN OPPONENT.” Goodell has suspended Vilma, an eight-year veteran and defensive captain, for the entire 2012 season. Vilma and three other

current of former Saints who received shorter suspensions — defensive end Will Smith, defensive lineman Anthony Hargrove and linebacker Scott Fujita — all have appealed their punishments. Hargrove now plays for Green Bay while Fujita is with Cleveland. “We have not yet reviewed the filing,” NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said. “However, our commitment to player safety and the integrity of the game is our main consideration. We recognize that not everyone will agree with decisions that need to be made.” The NFL also hired former federal prosecutor Mary Jo White in late 2011 to review its evidence in the case, and White has said the NFL’s findings are corroborated by multiple independent witnesses as well as documentation.

Vilma’s lawsuit, which is expected to be heard by Judge Ginger Berrigan, asks for unspecified monetary damages as well as punitive damage and attorneys fees. The lawsuit states that Goodell, “knew and intended that Vilma would suffer severe emotional distress” when the NFL published its bounty report and handed down punishment for the 30-year-old linebacker. “Vilma will soon have to leave behind the world of professional football and will likely face difficulties in obtaining other employment and entering into new ventures as a result of Goodell’s false and defamatory statements,” the lawsuit said. “Media will forever mention his name in the context of the Bounty investigation and fans will forever remember Vilma with ill repute

rather than remember his substantial accomplishments on and off the field.” The players’ association has said that the league has refused to turn over what the union would view as hard evidence that Vilma or the other sanctioned players tried to intentionally injure targeted opponents, or sponsored such behavior. “It is certainly the case that in court, Jonathan will have a right to see whatever it is that Commissioner Goodell has been hiding from us and what Commissioner Goodell contends gave him a basis to make these false allegations,” Ginsberg said. “We will have a fair and neutral judge to preside over the dispute rather than contending with the executioner also being the person making the final decision.”

Rival graduations stir trouble DEAR ABBY: I am a divorced man with a livein girlfriend I’ll call Donna. Her two boys also live with us. Donna’s older son will graduate from high school this year, and she has planned a party that her mother and other family members will attend from out of state. My daughter, “Sara,” is graduating from the same high school. Sara has shared her concerns with me that Donna’s family won’t care about celebrating her graduation. I tried to assure her that it’s my day to celebrate her accomplishment with her. I discussed this with Donna and asked if we could recognize Sara at her son’s party. Donna refused because my ex is having a party for Sara, and her son would be an invited guest but not the celebrated graduate there. I say it’s a different scenario because I’m Sara’s father and if I were remarried, we’d celebrate the step-sibling graduation together. Donna

then told me she has some issues with the way Sara behaves Abigail at times. Van Buren I feel this has given Dear Abby me an insight that I don’t like. How should I handle this upcoming graduation and other important issues? -- MIXED FEELINGS IN MISSOURI DEAR MIXED FEELINGS: Handle the graduation and other important issues by keeping them separate. While it would be generous for Sara to be acknowledged at Donna’s son’s party, it isn’t mandatory -- and I’m sure the reverse isn’t planned for the party your ex is hosting for Sara. What the circumstances “would be” if you and Donna were married instead of living together is irrelevant because you are not married and the graduates are not step-

siblings. However, this does point up that Donna has not warmed to Sara as much as she might have and you might wish she had. And, because it could be a dealbreaker, this is an issue that should be examined carefully in the very near future. DEAR ABBY: I’m a 16-year-old girl. I love my mother, but she puts very little effort into how she looks. She has been divorced since I was a baby and hasn’t dated much. When it comes to how we dress, we are complete opposites. I like to put on real clothes, even if I’m accompanying my mom to the grocery store. She goes out wearing sweats and no bra. Sometimes I try to help her by picking out her outfits for the week, but she gets mad when I say anything about her no-bra rule. She says I’m trying to pressure her to be someone she’s not. Maybe I am, but I want her to meet people and go on dates. It feels like she has no pride in what

she looks like. I care about her, but I can’t help but see that she could improve. -- DOTING DAUGHTER IN MARYLAND DEAR DOTING DAUGHTER: We could all “improve,” but if your mother is comfortable with herself as she is, you should try to accept her that way. Many women find bras uncomfortable, and if they don’t have to wear them they don’t -especially when wearing loose sweatshirts. Your mother appears to be happy with her circumstances. When she’s ready to try to attract male attention, she will. You are sweet to want to help her, but trying to manipulate her isn’t working, so for both your sakes, cut it out. (Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)

Horoscopes BY HOLIDAY MATHIS The moon glides into materialistic Taurus giving the last days of the Taurus solar journey extra intensity. It doesn’t take much to make a pocketbook fly open. The right combination of words, or shiny, colorful things bathed in excellent lighting, will do it. In most cases, buying has less to do with need and more to do with emotion and identity. ARIES (March 21-April 19). Thinking is the brain’s natural sorting process, and you’re enjoying your own organizational process. You welcome new thoughts because they represent learning and fresh energy coming into your life. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). All animals have territorial zones around them, and you’re an animal, too. If someone encroaches on your territory, you’ll bristle. Out of respect, you’ll be careful not to cross the lines with others. GEMINI (May 21June 21). Long ago, you stopped yourself from experiencing an emotion, and now it resurfaces, wanting more than ever to be expressed. Work your way

through it. It will evaporate when it completes a cycle. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ll feel the need to relax, though it’s not as easy for you to do this now. You’ll have to go out of your way to release built-up tension. The stress easing out of your being will be a wonderful sensation. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Some are comfortable with mediocrity, but you are not. You’ll work harder to make yourself remarkable. You’ll strive for higher scores and get impressive results. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You just made a plan, and it already needs to be altered to fit the new circumstances. That you’re able to adjust easily is a skill in and of itself -- and one you’ll be using often in the weeks to come. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’ll avoid restlessness by changing the routine. You’ll do something that’s different from what you’d normally be doing, and it’s more than a single act. It’s an actual path that leads to a different you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). You’ll require several mood boosts

throughout the day. A hot shower, a funny comic, a beautiful day dream, a prayer -- all ways to keep yourself feeling good. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). No one is pushing you, but you’ll push yourself. You want to be first, the clear victor in the game. You’ll catch your breath and make a final sprint past the winning post. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You’ll take control of your schedule. You’ll also realize that just because you signed up for certain tasks doesn’t mean you have to do them the same way all the time. There is more leeway than you once believed. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). With wide-shut eyes, you watch the movie in your mind. You’ll experience the scenes with a vivid clarity that would have been impossible to achieve with all of the distractions of yesterday. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your relationship with a certain person is changing rapidly. The better you get to know this one the more opportunity you see in your future

together. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (May 18). You’re exceedingly clever and will figure out what needs to happen in order for you to get what you want. Someone new finds your personality enchanting. You’ll reorganize your finances and sock away money monthly. November brings a big purchase. December and February are very romantic. Cancer and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 2, 33, 25 and 16. COUPLE OF THE WEEKEND: Can two Taurus people get along for years or decades? Initially, they have much in common: an appreciation for good food, a relentless pursuit of quality in all things, an eye for beauty and a tendency to collect things. But sooner or later they’ll have to deal with the other one’s stubborn streak. Their best hope is that they won’t want to break it off at the same time.

Today in history Today is Friday, May 18, the 139th day of 2012. There are 227 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History On May 18, 1926, evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson vanished while visiting a beach in Venice, Calif. (McPherson reappeared more than a month later, saying she’d escaped after being kidnapped and held for ransom, an account that was greeted with skepticism in some quarters.)

On this date In 1012, Theophylact, son of Gregory, Count of Tusculum, became Pope Benedict VIII, succeeding Pope Sergius IV. In 1642, the Canadian city of Montreal was founded by French colonists. In 1765, about onefourth of Montreal was destroyed by a fire. In 1896, the Supreme Court, in Plessy v. Ferguson, endorsed “separate but equal” racial segregation, a concept renounced 58 years later in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka. In 1910, Halley’s Comet passed by earth, brushing it with its tail. In 1912, singer Perry Como was born in Canonsburg, Pa.; movie writer-director Richard Brooks (“Cat on a Hot Tin Roof”; “Elmer Gantry”; “In Cold Blood”) was born in Philadelphia. In 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed a measure creating the Tennessee Valley Authority. In 1953, Jacqueline Cochran became the first woman to break the sound barrier as she piloted a Canadair F-86 Sabre jet over Rogers Dry Lake, Calif. In 1969, astronauts Eugene A. Cernan, Thomas P. Stafford and John W. Young blasted off aboard Apollo 10 on a mission to orbit the moon. In 1980, the Mount St. Helens volcano in Washington state exploded, leaving 57 people dead or missing. In 1982, a jury in New York City convicted the Rev. Sun Myung Moon, founder and leader of the Unification Church, of tax evasion and conspiracy. (Moon served 13 months in prison.) In 1991, Helen Sharman became the first

Briton to rocket into space as she flew aboard a Soviet Soyuz spacecraft with two cosmonauts on an eight-day mission to the Mir space station.

Ten years ago India and Pakistan exchanged fire across their shared border, renewing fears the countries were on the brink of another war over the Himalayan region of Kashmir. War Emblem won the Preakness Stakes, setting up a shot at the Triple Crown. (However, War Emblem came up short at the Belmont Stakes, which was won by long shot Sarava.)

Five years ago The White House and Congress failed to strike a deal after exchanging competing offers on an Iraq war spending bill that Democrats said should set a date for U.S. troops to leave. France’s new president, Nicolas Sarkozy, named a radically revamped cabinet which included seven women among its 15 members.

One year ago Dominique StraussKahn, the managing director of the International Monetary Fund, resigned, saying he wanted to devote all his energy to battling the sexual assault charges he faced in New York. (The charges were later dropped.) The United States slapped sanctions on Syrian President Bashar Assad and six others for human rights abuses over their brutal crackdown on antigovernment protests, for the first time personally penalizing the Syrian leader for the actions of his security forces.

Today’s Birthdays Actor Bill Macy is 90. Hall-of-Fame sportscaster Jack Whitaker is 88. Actor Robert Morse is 81. Actor Dwayne Hickman is 78. Baseball Hall-ofFamer Brooks Robinson is 75.

CONTINUED FROM 4B

to watch over our kids and grandkids, protecting them from the harshness of this world. At the same time, we must do our part in being a consistent example for them to see we practice what we profess. Even a child detests a “don’t do as I do, do as I say” lifestyle. …So as my memories remind me of how the Lord walked with me from my childhood and answered

prayer after prayer, I ask for the same blessing for those I love today. He meets us where we are and has the power to perform whatever we need to take us through life. What an awesome God!

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT ON CENTRAL PURCHASING SYSTEM, INVENTORY CONTROL SYSTEM, AND PURCHASE CLERK SCHEDULES (REQUIRED BY SECTION 31-7-115, MISS. CODE ANN. (1972) Members of the Board of Supervisors Alcorn County, Mississippi We have examined Alcorn County, Mississippi's (the County) compliance with establishing and maintaining a central purchasing system and inventory control system in accordance with Sections 31-7-101 through 31-7-127, Miss. Code Ann. (1972) and compliance with the purchasing requirements of Section 31-7-13, Miss. Code Ann. (1972) during the year ended September 30, 2010. The Board of Supervisors of Alcorn County, Mississippi is responsible for the County's compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the County's compliance based on our examination.

testation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and, accordingly, in0955 Legals cluded examining, on a test basis, evidence about the County's compliance with those requirements and performing other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the County's compliance with specified requirements. The Board of Supervisors of Alcorn County, Mississippi, has established centralized purchasing for all funds of the county and has established an inventory control system. The objective of the central purchasing system is to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that purchases are executed in accordance with state law. Because of inherent limitations in any central purchasing system and inventory control system, errors or irregularities may occur and may not be detected. Also, projection of any current evaluation of the system to future periods is subject to the risk that procedures may become inadequate because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the procedures may deteriorate. The results of our audit procedures disclosed certain instances of noncompliance with the aforementioned code sections. These instances of noncompliance were considered in forming our opinion on compliance. Our findings and recommendations and your responses are disclosed below: Inventory Control Clerk:
