Daily Corinthian Vol. 117, No. 168
BY STEVE BEAVERS SELMER, Tenn. — Some McNairy County customers of Regions Bank were contacted over the weekend by someone running a phishing scam. In the scam, customers and even non-customers received a text stating their accounts had been temporarily deactivated and they should call Regions Bank Card Services at 731-7271182 to reactivate. If the number was called, personal information was then requested. “We’ve received reports of fraudulent messages being sent to both customers and noncustomers in the area alerting them that an account has been shut down,” said Mel Campbell with Regions Financial Corpo-
ration. “Unfortunately, these types of fraud attempts are not uncommon.” According to the Regions representative, the same kind of scam took place two months ago in Memphis. The number to call is fairly local with scammers using the “spray and pray” method, where they send out numerous texts hoping to trick individuals into providing personal information. “First and foremost, the safety of the customer’s personal information is a priority for Regions,” said Campbell. “We do not ask customers to confirm their personal information by text or email.” Those who receive the text are urged to not call the number, click the link, or respond to

the text. Campbell offered some tips for those contacted about a possible scam: ■ Don’t respond to requests to provide an account or credit card numbers, user names or passwords, Social Security numbers, date of birth or other personal and financial information. ■ If you receive a message that you question or believe your personal information may have been compromised, contact your bank. ■ Use only published customer service numbers or the one of the back of your card if you need to contact your financial institution.

An Alcorn County jail inmate died Sunday night in an apparent suicide. The deceased inmate was identified as Michael Frazier, 31. Sheriff Charles Rinehart said he was notified at about 11:30 p.m. that the inmate had been found dead of a hanging in his cell. The inmate was being held in isolation, and a jail employee had last checked at 10:50 p.m. and noted the inmate was lying on his bunk. Frazier was an inmate of

the county at the justice complex, which also includes the regional state correctional facility. The inmate left behind a written letter. Frazier was listed on the docket of Alcorn County Circuit Court for the July-August term. Coroner Jay Jones said an autopsy is to be performed today. The sheriff’s department contacted the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation to handle the case — standard procedure in the death of a county inmate, Rinehart said. It is the first inmate death at the new facility.

Community urged to learn about changes in education BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Changes are coming to the education system. The Commission on the Future of Alcorn County and the CARE Foundation are taking strides to inform the community of those modifications. Through the Celebration of Excellence in Education the two, in cooperation with the
Daggett
Pierce Foundation, are bringing in noted education speaker, Dr. Willard R. Daggett, to shed more light on the importance to those in Corinth and
Alcorn County. “If people miss this opportunity to hear this fellow, they are going to miss a great opportunity,” said Dr. O. Wayne Gann, Chairman of the Mississippi State Board of Education. “Dr. Daggett has traveled and studied education all over the world, and he has a tremendous amount of information to back up what he says.”
Dr. Daggett, the International Center for Leadership in Education CEO, is slated to speak at two different functions on Monday, August 5. The first session will be held from 8:3011 a.m. at the Crossroads Arena and is for both city and county district educational staffs. A 6:30 p.m. public meeting has been scheduled for that night at the Corinth Coliseum Civic
Center in downtown. “His message needs to be heard by everyone in the city and county,” said CARE Foundation Chairman Sandy Williams. “When it comes to education he and his organization think outside the box … we are fortunate to get such an impressive speaker.” Please see EDUCATION | 2
National Park Travelers Club Group makes local stops in 11th annual convention BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Members of the National Park Travelers Club held a picnic at Crossroads Regional Park this weekend while they were in town for the group’s 11th annual convention. Dozens of members of the club, hailing from almost every state in the union, gathered at the park at 6 p.m. on Saturday to share a meal, share stories, get to know each other and play games. The club provides networking opportunities for visitors to America’s National Park System and collectors of “Passport
to Your National Parks” stamps. It has over 1,200 members, including 26 who have achieved Platinum status by collecting cancellation stamps from all National Park units. At this year’s convention five members were awarded Platinum status, including Corinth resident Woody Harrell, the longtime superintendent of Shiloh National Military Park. One of the picnic participants was NPTC founding member and Platinum traveler Nancy Bandley of Irvine, Calif. She has been with the club since its inception back in 2004, at the second meeting of a group of National Parks enthusiasts. The club has grown considerably since that first meeting of

Alcorn County School District Superintendent Gina Smith and Gann agree. “I urge people to attend the Monday night session,” said Gann. “We need to take advantage of him being here because he has quite the message.” “He is extremely impressive and presents very phenomenal information,” added Smith. “Dr. Daggett makes everyone aware that we need to pull together.” Dr. Daggett, founder of the International Center for Leadership in Education in 1991, was a teacher and administrator at the secondary and postsecondary levels, and a director with the New York State Education Department prior to holding his current position. While with the education department in New York, he spearheaded restructuring initiatives to focus the state’s education system on the skills and knowledge students need in a technological, information-based society. He has spoken to hundreds of thousands of educators and education stakeholders in all 50 states. His
enlightening, entertaining, and motivating messages have helped his listeners to look at education differently by challenging their assumptions about the purposes, benefits, and effectiveness of American schools. Dr. Daggett inspires his audiences both to embrace what is best about our education system and to make the changes necessary to meet the needs of all students in the 21st century. He is recognized worldwide for his proven ability to move pre-K-12 education systems towards more rigorous and relevant skills and knowledge for all students. He has assisted a number of states and hundreds of school districts with their school improvement initiatives. A graduate of Temple University, he has also collaborated with education ministries in several countries and with the Council of Chief State School Officers, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the National Governors Association, and many other national organizations. He serves on several advisory boards, including the NASA Education Advisory Board, since 2008, and the USA
Today Education Advisory Board. Daggett, the author of numerous books about learning and education, textbooks and research studies, reports, and journal articles, is the creator of the Application Model and Rigor/Relevance Framework, a practical planning and instructional tool for determining the relevance of curriculum and assessment to real-world situations. Dr. Daggett’s Rigor/ Relevance Framework has become a cornerstone of many school reform efforts throughout the United States. Last year’s, inaugural event drew around 700 people. Williams is hoping for “a crowd of 300” for the night meeting. “Our focus needs to be on the Monday night session,” added Williams. The Care Foundation Chairman is urging the public and businesses to help in the sponsorship of bringing in such a noted speaker. Five different levels have been established for those willing to support the visit. They are: Doctorate – $1,000 and up; Master – $750-$999; Bachelor
– $500-$749; Associate – $250-$499; and Star Student – $100-$249. Those interested in sponsoring can contact CARE Administrative Assistant Mona Lisa Grady at 662284-4858. During the morning program, “Preparing for the Challenges and Opportunities of the Common Core State Standards,” Dr. Daggett will talk about the changes schools are set to face along with the impact on curriculum and instruction. In the evening session, “Leading Change During Challenging Times–Lessons Learned from Our Nation’s Most Rapidly Improving Schools,” he will describe the implications of: ■ Common Core State Standards, Next Generation Assessments, and teacher evaluation systems, and how they will fundamentally change what and how is taught. ■ Increasing financial pressure that schools will be forced to deal with. ■ Challenges/opportunities that emerging technologies and tech-savvy students will pose for all K-12 educators.

visit Corinth. While the picnic dinner was being served under the city park pavilion, members of the club played a game to get to know each other — a scavenger hunt. Members had to find those present who met certain requirements, such as earning the Bronze Master Traveler Award for 2012 or someone who is attending their first NPTC convention. Debbie Roberts from Reno, Nev., had just com-
pleted her quest to visit all of the parks in the “lower 48.” She had visited 13 parks on her current trip. Roberts said it’s all about the challenge and seeing different places. “Each park is so different,” she said. “People ask me if I get tired of seeing Civil War sites, but it’s not just Civil War battle sites, it’s different parts of the Civil War. And some parks are more about the natural beauty.”
For Marietta Pritchard it’s all about learning the history. Pritchard and her husband Gary, another dedicated club member, hail from Huntsville, Ala., and were among the club members who were not far from home in Corinth. “It’s really a way to learn about history,” said Marietta. “When you see something and visit a place it sticks with you more than if you learned it in class or from a book.”

Today in history
Local/Region Randy Travis awake after stroke Associated Press
Today is Tuesday, July 16, the 197th day of 2013. There are 168 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On July 16, 1973, during the Senate Watergate hearings, former White House aide Alexander P. Butterfield publicly revealed the existence of President Richard Nixon’s secret taping system.
On this date: In 1790, a site along the Potomac River was designated the permanent seat of the United States government; the area became Washington, D.C. In 1862, Flag Officer David G. Farragut became the first rear admiral in the United States Navy. In 1912, New York gambler Herman Rosenthal, set to testify before a grand jury about police corruption, was gunned down by members of the Lennox Avenue Gang. In 1935, the first parking meters were installed in Oklahoma City. In 1945, the United States exploded its first experimental atomic bomb in the desert of Alamogordo, N.M. In 1951, the novel “The Catcher in the Rye� by J.D. Salinger was first published by Little, Brown and Co. In 1964, as he accepted the Republican presidential nomination in San Francisco, Barry M. Goldwater said “extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice� and that “moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue.� In 1969, Apollo 11 blasted off from Cape Kennedy on the first manned mission to the surface of the moon. In 1979, Saddam Hussein became president of Iraq. In 1980, former California Gov. Ronald Reagan won the Republican presidential nomination at the party’s convention in Detroit. In 1981, singer Harry Chapin was killed when his car was struck by a tractor-trailer on New York’s Long Island Expressway. In 1999, John F. Kennedy Jr., his wife, Carolyn, and her sister, Lauren Bessette, died when their single-engine plane, piloted by Kennedy, plunged into the Atlantic Ocean near Martha’s Vineyard, Mass.
Ten years ago: The Environmental Protection Agency announced it was starting big-money, long-term cleanups at ten Superfund toxic waste sites and putting ten other sites aside for later. A car driven by 87-yearold George Russell Weller plowed through a farmers market in Santa Monica, Calif., killing 10 people and injuring more than 70. (Weller was convicted of manslaughter and sentenced to five years of probation.) Cuban-born “Queen of Salsa� Celia Cruz died in Fort Lee, N.J., at age 77.
Five years ago: Republican John McCain addressed the annual convention of the NAACP, telling the civil rights group in Cincinnati he would expand education opportunities, partly through vouchers for lowincome children to attend private schools.

NASHVILLE, Tenn.— Country music star Randy Travis was awake and making progress Monday as he recovers from surgery following a stroke, his doctors said. In a news release and video from the Texas hospital where the 54-year-old singer is recovering, doctors also gave a more detailed explanation for the health troubles, saying they were caused by scarring on his heart. Doctors said Travis remains in critical condition and on a ventilator, but he has stabilized and is breathing spontaneously. His breathing support is gradually being reduced. He was interacting with his family and friends and has begun the early stages of physical therapy. Mary Davis, Travis’ fiancee, thanked the singer’s friends and fans for their prayers and sup-
port. “I know that Randy feels each and every one of those,� Davis said in the video. “He feels the hands of the doctors and the care of the nurses and the love of his fans. His friends and family have all been touched by that. He is responding well to voices and he sees and he understands. He’s miles beyond where any of us thought he would be a few days ago.� Travis will stay at The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano for two to three more weeks before being transferred somewhere else to undergo aggressive physical therapy. Doctors say it will take months to recover from the stroke, but scans shows the swelling in his brain caused by the event last Wednesday is subsiding following surgery to relieve pressure and he is making good progress in his recovery. The Grammy Awardwinning “Three Wooden Crosses� singer checked
into the hospital on July 7 after a viral illness affected his heart. Doctors initially thought the virus caused congestive heart failure, but have since determined with a biopsy that Travis has scarring on his heart. Dr. Michael Mack, a cardiac surgeon and medical director of cardiovascular disease at Baylor Health Care System in Dallas, said the scarring has caused Travis’ heart to become weak and require other devices to assist it to pump blood. He no longer needs a small pump inserted by catheter to help the heart control blood flow. Mack said echocardiograms of Travis’ heart to not indicate the scarring was caused by drug and alcohol abuse. “Mr. Travis does have a family history of cardiomyopathy and it is more likely related to that,� Mack said. Travis has had troubles with alcohol recently and pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated in Janu-
ary following an accident last August. He received two years of probation and a $2,000 fine. He was required to spend at least 30 days at an alcohol treatment facility and complete 100 hours of community service. Before falling ill, he’d recently made several public appearances, including a spot on the Country Music Association Festival’s nightly concert lineup and a poignant performance at George Jones’ funeral. Travis was admitted to Baylor Medical Center McKinney near his home in Tioga, about 60 miles north of Dallas, through the emergency room. He was transferred to The Heart Hospital Baylor Plano after doctors stabilized his heart with the pump. As his heart began to stabilize last Wednesday, doctors removed the pump and began to resuscitate Travis, Mack said. That was when he had the stroke.
Judge dismisses lawsuit by ex-superintendent Associated Press
COLUMBUS — A judge has dismissed a lawsuit filed against the Columbus Municipal School District by former superintendent Martha Liddell. The Columbus Dispatch reports that Chancery Judge Kenneth Burns ruled to dismiss the case Friday after a telephone conference with lawyers for both parties. Documents filed with the curt say Burns
moved to dismiss the lawsuit, in part, because the district has not yet held Liddell’s termination hearing. Liddell filed a lawsuit suing for reinstatement as superintendent after she was fired in a 3-2 vote by the board of trustees on June 17 after a four-and-a-half hour executive session. The Dispatch reported in May that Liddell used school funds to pay for a private party on Dec. 23, 2012. The party cost the dis-
trict $447.51. Liddell later reimbursed the district. Liddell hosted the party at the Trotter Convention Center. Liddell told the newspaper the party was a “personal event� for her friends, family and business acquaintances. In addition to her role as superintendent, Liddell owns a grant-writing company, Success Mak-

illegally. It took hours for authorities to control the riot, which grew to involve hundreds of inmates and injured at least 20 people. A complaint filed in court records says Lizama-Reynaga was seen carrying weapons and hitting windows during the riot. He also was accused of being one of the inmates who looted items from the prison kitchen and commissary. The FBI has said in court records that the riot was started by a group of Mexican inmates, known as Paisas, who were angry about what they considered poor food and medical care and disrespectful guards. Paisas are a loosely affiliated group within the prison, without ties to organized gangs, FBI spokeswoman Deborah Madden has said. Several other inmates have been charged with rioting in the case. The prison’s special response team and the Mississippi Highway Patrol’s SWAT team worked to end the riot while state and area law enforcement officers, some from neighboring Louisiana, helped secure the outside.
SCAM CONTINUED FROM 1 ■Be aware that these type of scams exist and follow your instincts; if it doesn’t feel right or seems out of the ordinary, don’t do it. If Regions customers
have a question about their account or have provided personal information because of this scam, they need to call either the published toll free number (1-800-REGIONS) or the number on the back of their card, according to Campbell.

Judge won’t delay trial in prison riot NATCHEZ — A federal judge has declined a lawyer’s request to delay the trial of a man charged with participating in a deadly prison riot in Mississippi last year. Ernesto Lizama-Reynaga is charged with participating in the May 20, 2012, riot at the privately run Adams County Correctional Facility in Natchez. Correction officer Catlin Carithers was beaten to death during the uprising. Carithers was off the day of the riot but was called in to help, his family has said. Attorney Aafram Sellers asked for a delay of the trial, scheduled for Aug. 5, so he could have more time to prepare and advise his client on whether to plead guilty. U.S. District Judge David Bramlette in Natchez turned down the request, saying he weighed the arguments, but found no need for a delay. The prison holds nearly 2,500 inmates convicted of crimes while being in the U.S.
ers Associates. The newspaper reported in May that documents it obtained in a Freedom of Information request showed the school district was billed for $259 for food that was served during the 2012 party. In addition, two school district employees worked a total of 16.5 hours resulting in pay of $188.

Corinth, Miss.
Is this still America? There are no winners in the trial of George Zimmerman. The only question is whether the damage that has been done has been transient or irreparable. Legally speaking, Zimmerman has won his freedom. But he can still be sued in a civil case, and he will probably never be safe to live his life in peace, as he could have before this case made him the focus Thomas of national attention and orSowell chestrated hate. More important than the fate of George Zimmerman, Columnist however, is the fate of the American justice system and of the public’s faith in that system and in their country. People who have increasingly asked, during the lawlessness of the Obama administration, “Is this still America?” may feel some measure of relief. But the very fact that this case was brought in the first place, in an absence of serious evidence -- which became ever more painfully obvious as the prosecution strained to try to come up with anything worthy of a murder trial -- will be of limited encouragement as to how long this will remain America. The political perversion of the criminal justice system began early and at the top, with the president of the United States. Unlike other public officials who decline to comment on criminal cases that have not yet been tried in court, Barack Obama chose to say, “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.” It was a clever way to play the race card, as he had done before, when Professor Henry Louis Gates of Harvard was arrested. But it did not stop there. After the local police in Florida found insufficient evidence to ask for Zimmerman to be prosecuted, the Obama administration sent Justice Department investigators to Sanford, Fla., and also used the taxpayers’ money to finance local activists who agitated for Zimmerman to be arrested. Political intervention did not end with the federal government. The city manager in Sanford intervened to prevent the usual police procedures from being followed. When the question arose of identifying the voice of whoever was calling for help during the confrontation between Trayvon Martin and George Zimmerman, the normal police procedure would have been to let individuals hear the recording separately, rather than have a whole family hear it together. When the city manager took this out of the hands of the police, and had Trayvon Martin’s family, plus Rachel Jeantel, all hear the recording together, that’s politics, not law. This was just one of the ways that this case looked like something out of “Alice in Wonderland.” Both in the courtroom and in the media, educated and apparently intelligent people repeatedly said things that they seemed sincerely, and even fervently, to believe, but which were unprovable and often even unknowable. In addition, the testimony of prosecution witness after prosecution witness undermined the prosecution’s own case. Some critics faulted the prosecuting attorneys. But the prosecutors had to work with what they had -- and they had no hard evidence that would back up a murder charge or even a manslaughter charge. You don’t send people to prison on the basis of what other people imagine, or on the basis of media sound bites like “shooting an unarmed child,” when that “child” was beating him bloody. The jury indicated, early on as their deliberations began, that they wanted to compare hard evidence, when they asked for a complete list of the testimony on both sides. Once the issue boiled down to hard, provable facts, the prosecutors’ loud histrionic assertions and sweeping innuendoes were just not going to cut it. Nor was repeatedly calling Zimmerman a liar effective, especially when the prosecution misquoted what Zimmerman said, as an examination of the record would show. The only real heroes in this trial were the jurors. They showed that this is still America -- at least for now -- despite politicians who try to cheapen or corrupt the law, as if this were some banana republic. Some are already calling for a federal indictment of George Zimmerman, after he has been acquitted. Will this still be America then?

VRA ruling alters state’s election dynamic JACKSON, Miss. — Because of a recent U.S. Supreme Court decision, Mississippi and other states with a history of racial discrimination no longer need federal preclearance to change their own voting laws. Now, it’s time for Mississippi to prove what many of its politicians have been saying: That the state has matured, and that people won’t try to disenfranchise their fellow citizens. “We’re not the same old Mississippi that our fathers’ fathers were,” Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann, a Republican, declared hours after the Supreme Court handed down its June 25 decision in a case from Shelby County, Ala. However, some Mississippi voting-rights experts still see evidence of racially divided politics. Among them is Carroll Rhodes of Hazlehurst, an attorney who has led litigation for more than 35 years to increase black voting and representation. “Instead of ‘Mississippi has changed,’ I would say that ‘Mississippi has been changed,’” Rhodes told The Associated Press this past week. “Mississippi did not
change on its own. There were thousands of voting rights lawsuits that were filed Emily on behalf Wagster of AfricanPettus A m e r i c a n voters from Capitol Dome cities, counties and even statewide to get the number of black elected officials we have today.” Rhodes points out that 48 years after the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 took effect, Mississippi still hasn’t elected a black statewide official. And, while poll taxes and literacy tests are long gone, he said a voter identification law could suppress participation by poor or minority residents. In November 2011, 62 percent of Mississippi voters approved a state constitutional amendment that says everyone must show government-issued photo ID before voting. Mississippi’s population is 60 percent white and 37 percent black. The voter ID initiative passed by wider margins in counties with
higher percentages of white residents. It failed in 11 counties, all of which are majority-black. (These 11 are not the only majority-black counties, though.) In 2012, Mississippi legislators passed a bill to put voter ID into law. To fulfill the preclearance requirement of the Voting Rights Act, both measures were sent to the U.S. Justice Department for evaluation of whether they’d diminish minorities’ voting strength. Until June 25, Mississippi voter ID remained in limbo. The ruling erased the need for federal preclearance. Hosemann said he thinks the June 2014 federal primaries will be the first time voters will have to show identification. Republican Gov. Phil Bryant has long said Mississippi should come out from under the preclearance requirement. This past week, Bryant said the majority of justices “validated some of our beliefs” that Mississippi has emerged from its past: “We encourage voter registration, from every segment of the state.” AP asked the governor if there’s a correlation between
the Voting Rights Act and the election of significant numbers African-American officials in Mississippi. “Of course it is,” Bryant said. “I think some of that would’ve naturally taken place. Hopefully, we have grown, we have learned, generational changes have occurred. But the law did its job in the early days. “When you think of people in this state who were being assassinated because they were simply trying to get people to register to vote, something had to be done about it,” Bryant said. “I think the federal and state government applied the right amount of enforcement against people who were murdering, who were intimidating, who were threatening. That came to an end.” Mississippi government did very little in the 1960s, and earlier, to punish people who were killing, threatening or intimidating those who pushed to ensure black citizens could vote. Such disregard of civil rights, by Mississippi and other states of the old Confederacy, spurred Congress to pass the Voting Rights Act.
Obama forfeits trust by not enforcing Obamacare On Obamacare, as on immigration enforcement and welfare requirements, Barack Obama is following the course that cost King James II his throne. He is dispensing with the law. James II was ousted in the Glorious Revolution of 1688-89, in large part for claiming that he could in particular cases dispense with -- that is, ignore -- an act of Parliament. The law in question was the Test Act of 1673, which required that all government officials and military officers be members of the Church of England. It is not a law admired by Americans today or, for that matter, by our Founding Fathers. Article VI of the Constitution provides that “no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States.” But the Founders did follow the English Bill of Rights of 1689, which stated “that the pretended power of dispensing with the laws, or the execution of the law by regal authority, as it hath been assumed and exercised of late, is illegal.” That seems to be the clear purport of Article II, Section 3 of the Constitution, which requires that the president “shall take care that the laws

be faithfully executed.” But the former constitutional law teacher now in the Micahel White House Barone seems to be ignoring that Columnist duty. Last week, a blog post by the assistant secretary of the treasury for tax policy announced that the government would not enforce Obamacare’s employer mandate, the penalty for not offering health insurance to full-time employees. That announcement appeared the day before the Fourth of July. On July 5, the Department of Health and Human Services issued a 606-page regulation announcing that state health exchanges would not verify the eligibility of those applying for Obamacare health insurance subsidies. Both decisions go against the letter of the law -- in this case, a law that the president and his critics consider the chief domestic accomplishment of his administration. They follow the decision of the administration that insurance subsidies will be available in states that have chosen to have the federal government run their health
insurance exchanges -- even though the text of Obamacare authorizes such payments only for states that create their own exchanges. Now there is an argument that the executive branch has some discretion in enforcing the law. Prosecutors, for example, are not obliged to bring criminal charges in every case where there’s evidence that someone broke the law. Such an argument might be made about the president’s declaration that the administration not deport “dreamers” -- persons brought to the United States illegally as children who have done well in school or served in the military. But that argument doesn’t apply to the Obamacare dispensations. They’re not examples of taking individual situations into account. They’re general rules that apply to everybody. Dispensing with the rules is a game that can be played by two. What if, as American Commitment’s Phil Kerpen suggested, a President Mitt Romney decided to dispense with all the provisions of Obamacare? Or what if another Republican president instructed the Internal Revenue Service not to collect income taxes over 35 percent of

adjusted gross income? Enforcing only the parts of laws that you like can start verging on tyranny. That’s what the English came to think back in 1688. King James believed in the divine right of kings and governed for several years without Parliament. But in time, he forfeited the trust of both Whigs and Tories. When William of Orange came over the Channel with an army, James fled. Obama does not face a similar fate. But his unwillingness to faithfully execute his own signature law is a confession of incompetence. It erodes the president’s political capital. House Republicans may block an immigration bill because they fear Obama would not enforce its border security provisions. For now, Obama’s dispensing is getting pushback from Congress and could be challenged in the courts. And more voters may come to believe that they’d like to dispense with Obamacare.

Motorcycle racer dies after hitting 285 mph LIMESTONE, Maine — A motorcycle racer trying to top 300 mph died Sunday after losing control and zooming off a runway at a former air base in northern Maine. Bill Warner, 44, of Wimauma, Fla., was clocked at 285 mph before he lost control but it was unclear how fast the motorcycle was traveling when it veered off the paved runway and crashed, said Tim Kelly, race director the Loring Timing Association, which hosted “The Maine Event” at Loring Air Force Base. Warner was conscious and talking after the crash just before 10 a.m., Kelly said, but he died about an hour and 15 minutes later at a hospital in Caribou. Riding his modified turbocharged Suzuki Hayabusa, Warner previously hit 311 mph on the same course in 2011, using 1.5 miles of pavement. That’s considered to be the world land speed record for a conventional motorcycle, Kelly said. This time he was trying to hit 300 mph using just a mile of pavement, and he’d made several passes before the one in which he crashed, Kelly said. The Maine Event is an annual timed speed event that utilizes the 14,200-foot-long runway at the former Strategic Air Command base that closed in 1994. The Loring Timing Association uses 2.5 miles of the runway for its events, and there’s an additional buffer of 2,000 feet, Kelly said. On Sunday, about 400 spectators watched as Warner began veering right after passing the 1-mile mark, traveling upright for another 2,000 feet before exiting the runway and crashing, Kelly said. The remainder of Sunday’s event was canceled. The Limestone Police Department and Maine State Police were investigating the crash.
Some see acquittal as a blow to relations SANFORD, Fla. — Nearly 70 years after Jackie Robinson was run out of town, Sanford is absorbing what some see as another blow to race relations: the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the killing of Trayvon Martin. Some black residents of this community of almost 50,000 people where the shooting took place say that while relations between black and white have improved over the years, progress has been slow and the Martin case demonstrated that problems persist. James Tillman, who is black, said Saturday’s verdict just adds to his mistrust of local authorities, who have been criticized over the years for their handling of other crimes against blacks. Tillman, 47, said city officials try to portray Sanford as a “quiet and laid-back town.” “This town here is one of the worst towns about covering things up,” Tillman said, stopping his bike in front of a memorial to the 17-year-old Martin. “When you put something in the closet, it’s going to burst back on you.” Sanford, a mostly middle-class suburb of Orlando, about 25 miles away, has reacted somberly — and peacefully — to the verdict. The city was mostly silent the
morning after the verdict, in contrast to the rallies that drew thousands not long after the shooting.
Senators try to work out deal for nominees WASHINGTON — A showdown looming, Republicans and Democrats groped for a compromise Monday over confirming stalled White House appointees in a dispute that threatened what little bipartisan cooperation remains in the U.S. Senate. All 100 senators were invited to a rare closeddoor meeting in the Capitol’s Old Senate Chamber, just down the hall from where they normally debate the issues of the day with the public and news media in attendance. Majority Leader Harry Reid insisted in advance that Republicans permit yes-or-no confirmation votes on all seven of the nominees at issue. If they won’t, he declared, Democrats will change the Senate’s rules to strip them of their ability to delay. In a morning speech at the Center for American Progress, Reid said there was no room for a middle ground allowing votes on some but not all of the seven. “Minor change, no big deal,” he said of the possible rules change. “My efforts are directed at saving the Senate from becoming obsolete.”
Woman sentenced for role in genocide CONCORD, N.H. — A federal judge on Monday sentenced a New Hampshire woman to the maximum 10 years in prison for lying about her role in the 1994 Rwanda genocide, saying the United States cannot be a haven for those who slaughter out of hatred and ignorance. Rwanda native Beatrice Munyenyezi declined her right to address the court after U.S. District Judge Steven McAuliffe imposed her sentence. Munyenyezi, 43, was convicted in February of entering the United States and securing citizenship by lying about her role as a commander of one of the notorious roadblocks where Tutsis were singled out for slaughter. She also denied affiliation with any political party, despite her husband’s leadership role in the extremist Hutu militia party. “She was not a mere spectator,” McAuliffe said. “I find this defendant was actively involved, actively par-

State ticipated, in the mass killing of men, women and children simply because they were Tutsis.” McAuliffe acknowledged she has led a crime-free and productive life since her arrival in New Hampshire in 1998 but said it was a life lived under false pretenses.
Boy rescued from dune should recover CHICAGO — One minute, 6-year-old Nathan Woessner was scampering up a massive dune in northern Indiana with his dad and a friend. He was gone the next, without a warning or sound. More than three hours later, rescuers pulled Nathan out from under 11 feet of sand on Friday. He showed no signs of life: He was cold to the touch, had no pulse and wasn’t breathing. His limp body was put into the back of a pickup truck, which started toward a waiting ambulance. The plan was to take him to the hospital rather than the coroner’s office, even if he was dead, in order to “give the family and rescue workers hope,” La Porte (Ind.) County Chief Deputy Coroner Mark Huffman said Monday. As the truck bounced over the dune, a medic noticed something astonishing: The boy took a breath. Then, the cut on his head started bleeding. The jolt apparently shocked Nathan’s body back to life, Huffman said. Nathan was rushed to the hospital and was crying in the emergency room when Huffman arrived a few minutes later. “Man, I tell you that was such a great feeling,” Huffman said. “This is not something that I as the chief deputy coroner get to report that often. It’s an absolute miracle.”

Mowers find body in grass in Greenwood GREENWOOD — State workers have found the body of an unidentified woman while mowing the grass along U.S. 82 in Greenwood. Authorities say Mississippi Department of Transportation employees discovered the body about 11:30 a.m. Monday, lying face down in a ditch alongside the highway. Deputy Police Chief Johnny Langdon tells The Greenwood Commonwealth that the victim was clad in blue jeans with a white pattern on the back pockets and a dark-colored shirt. Langdon says the body was transported to the state crime lab in Jackson for an autopsy. Authorities are still trying to identify the victim, who appears to be a black female, but the face has decomposed.

Lowndes County Coroner Greg Merchant says Lopez was on the bank of the Buttahatchee River playing soccer with a group of friends when the ball went into the water. Lopez went into the water to retrieve the ball and drowned. Due to the swift current, divers were unable to search for Lopez. Columbus Fire and Rescue began dragging the river Sunday.

Highway Patrol short of officers, cars JACKSON — The head of the Mississippi Highway Patrol says the agency is facing a major shortage of manpower and patrol cars. Public Safety Commissioner Albert Santa Cruz tells WLBT-TV that there are 512 troopers in the entire state, which is 138 fewer than what the patrol is allotted. The patrol is also short on patrol cars, and over half of the cars have more than 100,000 miles on them. Cruz says officials are working with Gov. Phil Bryant to get new cars. In addition, they hope to get a patrol school in the next legislative session.

The victim was identified as Ellis Wade Bishop. Bishop had been shot multiple times.

Can We Say No To Satan? “ Study to show thyself approved unto God.–” 2 Tim. 2:15. When we study God’s word we learn how to please Him. The Scriptures teaches us how to dis-please God. Thus we have before us the way of right and wrong. So, we must decide which way we will go. The choice is not hard, if we want to please Him. Our God is an awesome God. We are introduced to the Father–Son–Holy Spirit in Genesis 1:1. We are introduced to Satan in Genesis 3. He comes on the scene rejecting the spoken word of God. Man was given the responsibility to name all the beast of the field–birds of the air– Genesis 2:19-20. He even named his wife–Eve– Genesis 3:20. But he could not say no to Satan. Many are they who are highly educated in many fields of learning - but they cannot say no to Satan. God sees the wickedness of man today, just as He did in Noah’s day read Genesis 6 - now you know. Questions? What did God think of man’s sinfulness? He said, I will destroy man and beast from the face of the earth. God commanded Noah to build the ark - Genesis 6:9-22. God said I will bring to an end the wickedness of man - yet his days shall be a hundred and twenty years - Genesis 6:3 God brought a great flood and every living substance was destroyed from the face of the earth - Genesis 7:17-24. When man chooses to live in wickedness it will bring the wrath of God upon him. Some think Satan is off in the stratosphere. But he is right here on Earth, working it. He is like a vicious lion attacking us from many different sources - newspaper - TV - billboards - wicked life of sinful multitudes, who seem to glamorize sin.

Holder calls Martin killing an ‘unnecessary shooting’ Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Attorney General Eric Holder on Monday called the killing of Trayvon Martin a “tragic, unnecessary shooting,” and said the Justice Department will follow “the facts and the law” as it reviews evidence to see whether federal criminal charges are warranted. In his first comments since the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the Martin case, the attorney general said the 17-year-old’s death provides an opportunity for the nation to speak honestly about complicated and emotionally charged issues. He said the nation must not forgo an opportunity toward better understanding of one another. On Sunday, the Justice Department said it is reviewing evidence in the case to determine whether criminal civil rights charges would be brought. The department opened an investigation into Martin’s death last year but stepped aside to allow the state prosecution to proceed. Holder said, “We are ... mindful of the pain

Reader empathizes with thoughts about wedding gifts How often I’ve read articles and books that spoke to me -- but I never got around to sending the writer a note to say thanks for making me laugh. Or making me think. Some even changed my life. Which makes me appreciate all the more the folks who actually drop me a line when a piece I’ve written speaks to them. One of the dearest I’ve ever received arrived just yesterday from Jaylene Whitehurst. I’ve known Jaye for years, but our paths haven’t crossed much lately. You can imagine how her letter warmed the cockles of my heart. ... Good morning Ry-Your recent piece in the Corinthian about wedding gifts prompts a hand-written note, something more than a quick
email. I’ve been percolating with it. S i m ply said, I loved it. Ryland Connected Bruhwiler with the sentiment Columnist on many levels. Yes, it’s convenient to check the registry at Belk’s and pay for something preselected, but it’s oh-sounsatisfying to me! It’s No Fun! My hands may never touch it. Your words took me back to when Gerry and I got married and had nothing but some towels, sheets and a couple of pots in my hope chest. Those personal gifts we received were magical to me. I didn’t grow up with many “pretties� so the not-necessary-but-lovely
items stick with me especially. Many came from G’s church, women with whom I wasn’t acquainted, names I’ve known but never truly known the women (because back then it was always the women who single-handedly did the gifting). Most of those women are long dead. I’m aware I was the fortunate recipient of their kindness simply because I was married to one of their own. They loved his family and him; I got to simply unwrap the gifts! I still have many of those gifts. Every time I look at the beautiful quilt, I wish I could tell whoever gave it to us how much pleasure it’s brought me over the years. Truth is I was 19 and didn’t really know the woman then and don’t remember now. That makes me sad.
And yet, it looks like love to me. All those stitches, even and smooth. The little pressed glass bowl that sparkles, holding shells and little pottery birds on one of Daddy’s tables today, has gone from room to room for 39 years, holding soap, paper-clips, potpourri, chapsticks, pickles. I know the sweet woman who gave us that little bowl had a tight budget -- I do remember her -- but she took time to give us something pretty. Maybe she knew we need more than necessities? There’s a handpainted floral plate that hangs in the hall, one of those gifts. There were towels we used until they were worn thin as window screens, because towels were expensive and money was tight. We were married probably
20 years before I bought towels. Those dear gifts kept us going for years. The cured skillet Mama Ethel gave me. A good used skillet. Priceless. Heavy scissors from my brother, which Mother probably picked out, but maybe not. Tim’s a practical engineer from his youth! The list goes on and this became more than a little note -- on and on and on and on.... Good tender memories. I thank you for your words that brought all rushing back, words that give me fresh eyes. Love, Jaye Thank you, Jaye. Your words resonated with me, too. Loved the point about our hands never even touching the gifts we order from those convenient wish lists.
I was moved by the thought of the folks from your husband’s church who gave so generously because they loved him so. And as a quilter, I most certainly understand the affection that’s sewn into a quilt -- thousands of stitches’ worth. The good, used pan. That practical pair of scissors. The pretty bowl that’s gone from room to room for 39 years. But my favorite line is the one about the towels worn thin as window screens. We know exactly what you mean. I love that line so much I wish I’d written it myself. (Daily Corinthian columnist Ryland Bruhwiler lives on a farm in McNairy County, Tenn.

Professor helps find underwater forest Associated Press
HATTIESBURG — Divers have discovered an underwater forest in the Gulf of Mexico about 10 miles off the coast of Mobile, Ala. The Bald Cyprus Forestwas buried in 60 feet of water under ocean sediments and protected in an oxygen free environment for more than 50,000 years, until Hurricane Katrina and hurricanes following. This underwater world has drawn the attention of researchers, including an assistant professor at the University of Southern Mississippi in Hattiesburg. At first, the underwater forest was predicted to be about 10,000 years old, but Ben Raines, one of the first divers to discover the underwater world, contacted Grant Harley. Harley is a dendochronologist — someone who studies tree rings — and an assistant professor at USM.
Harley tells WDAM-TV in Hattiesburg that the wood found underwater looks, feels, and even smells like a regular piece of wood, except that it is over 50,000 years old. Harley said the underwater forest resurrected isn’t just a result of Hurricane Katrina, but other hurricanes, as well. “At that water depth, you can really have some sediments being churned up by hurricanes. Our best guess is hurricanes between 2005 and 2008. This is the first discovery of its kind in the Gulf of Mexico. “This type of record is extremely rare in the Gulf Coast region,� Harley said. “There’s not really any sort of comparable record that I can think of in this region of the world.� Harley is conducting research in Hattiesburg to find out more about
the ancient forest, including the age of the wood, and climate conditions from between 50,000 and 80,000 years ago. “The growth rings on this tree bark is indicative of climate conditions during that time period,� he said. This could lead to even more findings, he said. “The potential to find some archaeological remains of early humans, early native Americans that were migrating and moving throughout the continent, and bones from animals,� Harley said. Now that the forest has resurrected to open water, there’s one problem. “Now that the forest is exposed, they’re rapidly decaying,� he said. Harley and a team of researchers are working to get National Geographic to fund the preservation of the forest.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Watch for a story on the business development of Wick Street in our next Crossroads Magazine -- Lifestyles Edition, coming out Aug. 3 in the Daily Corinthian.
Former cutter is hesitant to expose scars to clients DEAR ABBY: I was recently hired for a job I have wanted for years. I am a counselor for troubled teens. I love it, and I empathize with those I work with. (Ten years ago, I was a teen placed in a similar facility for some of the same reasons.) The problem is, when I was in a dark period of my life, I was a cutter. I still have deep scars on one arm that are noticeable. How do I handle this now that I’m in the psychological field? I don’t wish to go into detail about my past, as that would be poor boundaries as an employee and counselor. But it’s hard to avoid with hot summer weather here and my past literally “on my sleeve.” Please help. Some actions have permanent consequences. I hope this will remind other cutters that their wounds may be something they wish they could undo once they are emotionally healed. -- NAMELESS IN AMERICA DEAR NAMELESS: I hope
your comments will remind other cut ters not only that act i o n s have consequencAbigail es, but also Van Buren that there are more effecDear Abby tive solutions for emotional pain than self-injury. This is something you should discuss with your employers. My thinking is, if your clients see your scars, it may help them to talk about their own cutting, which would be therapeutic. DE AR ABBY: I recently became a father for the third time. My children are 18, 5 and 3 weeks old. My wife, “Molly,” had complications during this last pregnancy that caused her blood pressure to remain in a heightened state for the last few months of her pregnancy. She had been hoping for a little girl, but we were blessed with an-
other boy. I make a fair living, but with additional mouths to feed come additional financial responsibilities. I’m afraid I won’t be able to provide for my growing family as I need to. Am I right in my thinking, or am I being overly cautious? - - STOPPING AT THREE IN PENNSYLVANIA D E A R S T O P P I N G AT T H REE: You are thinking clearly. At 37, and with her medical histor y, your wife would be considered “at risk” if she becomes pregnant again. While I sympathize with the fact that she yearns for a daughter, allow me to share a true story with you: A man was in a similar situation to yours, but he had four daughters. So he and his wife decided they would try “one more time” for a son. Sure enough, his wife became pregnant. She delivered beautiful identical twin ... daughters. At that point he gave up and had a vasectomy!
Horoscopes A R I E S (M a r c h 21-A p r i l 19). Sometimes you wonder whether you were cut out for the job you are doing. Are you strong enough? Probably not initially, but it’s the job that makes you strong as you do it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You’re going to give your time away to the things that interest and fascinate you. You try to do so mindfully, but overly seductive electronics and media make this very challenging for you today. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Sure, maybe they are competing with you. But at least your friends and neighbors make you aspire to be your best self. You’ll walk that fine line between encouragement and competition today. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You can be afraid of something and want it at the same time. But if you’re going to get it, your want has to outweigh your fear. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). An-
cient man regarded volcanoes as god’s anger. Modern man understands it’s just nature’s way of letting off pressure. But that doesn’t make it any less destructive. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You desire to become more self-sufficient, and you will. You only have to put more of yourself into the projects you know will forward your interests. You’ll benefit from being a bit more serious about this now. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You are successful in part for your ability to make snap decisions. However, this is a day to avoid jumping to conclusion or judgment. . SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s some conflict that comes with the day. You feel as though you’re doing better in one area and worse in another. Just know that growth can be strange like this, but all is building in a positive way. S A G I T TA R I U S ( N o v.
22-Dec. 21). Love yourself enough to give yourself the things you want. It will take sacrifice. But be a good coach to yourself, the kind who keeps an eye to the long view. Don’t let yourself give up too soon. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You hold yourself to a different standard from that of the others around you, mostly because it never occurred to you that you should do what they are doing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You’ll enjoy your setting. It’s the sparkle of windows, a shimmer in the air, the intrigue of strangers... It all brings a strange mix of feelings. You may feel nostalgic for this time even as you experience it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t have to be a charming conversationalist if you are a charmed listener. This is such a rare gift that it trumps many of the other social graces. Your deep wells of empathy will help you develop this skill.

Phenoms steal All-Star stage MIKE FITZPATRICK Associated Press
NEW YORK — Flip on any highlight show and you’re almost sure to see them, with those peach-fuzz faces and boyish features beneath their big league caps. Mike Trout makes a diving catch on the warning track. Manny Machado whacks another double into the corner at Camden Yards. Bryce Harper belts a tapemeasure home run or barrels into a catcher ... or an outfield fence ... or whatever stands in his way. The next generation of
baseball stars has arrived — straight from the senior prom, it seems — and these guys are changing the complexion of the grand ol’ game. Derek Jeter is 39 and injured, left off the All-Star team for the first time in eight years. Matt Harvey is 24 and merciless, with a polished array of breaking pitches to complement 98 mph heat. “These guys are coming up now with incredible talent, these young players,” National League manager Bruce Bochy said Monday at Citi Field, where the New York Mets are
hosting the All-Star game for the first time since Shea Stadium opened in 1964. “I think they are just getting better, faster, bigger, stronger still, and it’s impressive to watch.” No kidding. Trout and Harper, the Rookies of the Year last season, are making their second trip to the All-Star game. This time, they will start Tuesday night after getting elected by fans with a fervor for the new boys of summer. Some of baseball’s best players are among the youngest on the field. Night after night, they put up unprec-
edented numbers and turn in spectacular plays that belie a birth certificate from the 1990s. “It’s good for the game,” Trout said. “A lot of young guys are playing fearless and making a name for themselves at an early stage in their career.” Not only that, they move merchandise.

Grizzlies announce signing Allen, Leuer Associated Press
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — The Memphis Grizzlies have officially announced the signings of guard Tony Allen and forward Jon Leuer. Allen agreed on July 3 to a four-year contract worth $20 million, keeping the nine-year veteran with Memphis. The Grizzlies announced Monday that they had signed both Allen and Leuer to multiyear deals, and chief executive officer Jason Levien said they are absolutely thrilled to bring back Allen. The 6-foot-4 Allen scored 10.3 points and had 6.1 rebounds with 2 steals in the playoffs as Memphis reached its first Western Conference final. Allen also received more points than any other player for this season’s NBA All-Defensive First team. He finished in the top six in voting for the league’s Defensive Player of the Year award each of the past three seasons.

Blue Mountain College signee Kossuth’s Josh Whitaker throws during the Aggies 3A State Championship win over Sumrall High School. Whitaker has signed on to play for the Blue Mountain College Toppers after finishing his senior season with an 8-3 record on the mound along with 2 saves. At the plate, Whitaker put in a .292 batting average, 22 RBIs and 21 runs. Whitaker’s brother, Justin, a 2011 graduate from Kossuth, will also suit up for BMC at first base after playing two years at Westminster College in Fulton, MO. Justin led the Blue Jays with 30 RBI and batted .321 with 22 doubles and three home runs during his sophomore year.
Vandy identifies 4 dismissed from team Associated Press
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Vanderbilt has identified the four players dismissed from the team for an incident last month that is being investigated by police as a possible sex crime. Coach James Franklin released a statement Monday saying defensive back Brandon Banks, safety Cory Batey, receiver Jaborian “Tip” McKenzie and tight end Brandon Vandenburg are no longer on the roster after violating team rules. Vanderbilt dismissed the players June 29 and kicked them off campus for an incident being investigated by the Metro Nashville Police Department’s sex crimes unit, but university officials had not identified them. Vanderbilt will be releasing its 2013 media guide at SEC Media Days in Alabama
this week. The players will be listed in the media guide, but have been removed from the team’s official roster online, the school said. Franklin had not commented on the incident or the dismissals until Monday when he said playing at Vanderbilt is a privilege and not a right, something he and his coaches try to make sure every player understands. “We insist on high standards of personal responsibility and integrity, and there are consequences when those standards are not met,” Franklin said. “In dealing with this matter, the Commodores football team will continue to hold itself to the same high standards of responsibility and integrity Vanderbilt demands of all of our students. The sex crimes unit of the Nashville Police Department
opened an investigation June 26 after being notified by campus police about “a matter that is alleged to have occurred at a Vanderbilt University dormitory” June 23. Evidence was sent to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s crime lab for testing. None of the four played a snap for Vanderbilt last season. Batey, a Nashville, Tenn., native, came in last season as a receiver and redshirted behind Jordan Matthews and Chris Boyd before switching to safety this spring. His attorney Worrick Robinson declined to comment because of the pending investigation. Banks, from Brandywine, Md., also redshirted as a freshman last season. Attorney Grover Collins said Banks is innocent of any and all wrongdoing. “We are fully cooperating with the police in this investi-
gation and have appealed the decision by the university,” Collins told The Associated Press. McKenzie, from Natchez, Miss., redshirted in 2012, but the 5-foot-8 receiver had four catches for 83 yards in the Commodores’ spring game — the most yards receiving in the game. His attorney, Jodie Bell, did not immediately return a message by the AP. The 6-foot-5 Vandenburg from Indio, Calif., was considered one of the top junior college tight ends nationally coming out of Xavier College Prep, and he became the first junior college transfer at Vanderbilt since Jordan Rodgers in 2010. The Commodores went 9-4 and won the Music City for their best season since 1915. Vanderbilt opens the season Aug. 29 hosting Mississippi.
Manziel pleads guilty to misdemeanor charge Associated Press
COLLEGE STATION, Texas — Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel pleaded guilty Monday to a misdemeanor stemming from a 2012 bar fight near campus, closing a case that had dogged his Heisman Trophy-winning season. Manziel admitted he failed to identify himself to police
following the altercation. As part of a plea deal, other charges against the 20-yearold, including disorderly conduct, were dismissed. Brazos County Attorney Rod Anderson says Manziel was ordered to pay a $2,000 fine, about $230 in court costs and was credited with the overnight jail time he served following his arrest. He had
faced up to 180 days in jail for the June 2012 incident. Police said an officer on bike patrol had intervened to break up a fight between Manziel and Marvin McKinney just after 2 a.m. in a street in the Northgate entertainment district. McKinney told police that a friend of Manziel’s had called him a racial slur. He said Manziel shoved
McKinney as he approached the two, and then they exchanged punches. When officers asked Manziel for an ID, he produced a phony Louisiana driver’s license that showed his birthday as Dec. 6, 1990. Police checked Manziel’s wallet and found two more ID cards — a Please see MANZIEL | 13

league and the players’ association said last week. Harper is 20, and Trout is all of 21. Barely old enough to vote, let alone buy a drink. Machado’s jersey ranked eighth, one spot behind Jeter, even though the Baltimore third baseman has spent less than a year in the majors. That didn’t stop him from earning his first All-Star selection on his 21st birthday. “In today’s era, young dudes are getting better and more prepared to come up to the big leagues,” said Orioles teammate Adam Jones, an All-Star himself. “It’s just an improvement in the game. These young dudes are phenoms, and he’s put his name up there. “He’s probably more mature than I am, and I’m 27.” Machado was voted in by players, a significant sign of respect from his peers. Well, mostly elders, actually. He certainly deserved it at a power-packed position after hitting 39 doubles in the first half, threatening the single-season record of 67 set by Earl Webb in 1931. “Swing and hit the white ball coming at you. That’s all it is,” Machado said. “There’s no secret to it.” Just like Little League, apparently. Sometimes he makes it look that easy, too. But take a swing around the majors and you see it’s not only Trout, Harper and Machado. There is Miami rookie Jose Fernandez, a 20-year-old AllStar with a Cy Young future. Don’t forget lefty Patrick Corbin (23), who is 11-1 with a 2.35 ERA for Arizona. And second-year shortstop Jean Segura in Milwaukee, who leads the NL in hits at age 23. “I feel pretty good when they compare me with those guys,” Segura said about his place among baseball’s new breed. Then there’s Harvey, the New York Mets ace with 29 major league starts to his name. His next one will be Tuesday night on his home mound opposite Detroit Tigers right-hander Max Scherzer. “For me, he’s the best pitcher in the game,” Diamondbacks outfielder Cody Ross said this month. “Not even just in the National League. He’s really good. I faced a lot of those guys in the American League last year and I can’t say that I saw anyone better than him. “His mound presence is as good as you’ll see.” There are 12 All-Stars this season 24 or younger, seven in the National League. That’s the most since a dozen were selected in 1993, according to STATS — a group that included Ken Griffey Jr., Mike Piazza, Gary Sheffield, Mike Mussina and Juan Gonzalez. The only player from that bunch under 23 was 21-year-old catcher Ivan Rodriguez. This year, there are four. That doesn’t include Los Angeles Dodgers sensation Yasiel Puig, left out of the game after six electric weeks in the big leagues at 22. More to come from him, for sure. “Every guy that you just mentioned plays the game hard, plays it the right way every day. It’s so much fun to be part of that,” Harper said. “I’m not going to back off the throttle at all. I’m full speed every day.” In all, 12 players who qualified as rookies last season made the All-Star team this year. So much for sophomore slumps. “There’s definitely a different breed of ballplayer coming out,” Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said last weekend. “This seems to be one of those cycles where a lot of young players are flashing quick.”

Ball from Jackie Robinson’s debut on auction HOWARD ULMAN Associated Press
BOSTON — When Artie Gore made his major league debut, his fellow umpires autographed a ball and gave it to him as a keepsake. Now it’s being auctioned off
for more than $20,000 — and not just because it was used in an umpire’s first game 66 years ago. It also was Jackie Robinson’s first game, the one that broke the color barrier. “Somewhere in between Nat

Turner and Barack Obama was Jackie Robinson on April 15,” Richard Flaherty, Gore’s nephew, said. “I don’t know if he hit that ball or not, but in terms of American history, it was pretty important.” The ball had been in a box of memorabilia in Flaherty’s father’s home in Watertown, Mass., its significance unknown, for about 15 years. On Tuesday, it will be auctioned off on the second day of FanFest at the All-Star game being hosted by the New York Mets. David Hunt, president of Hunt Auctions, knew the ball was valuable as soon as he saw it at the home of Edward Flaherty, Richard’s father, who died in November at the age of 95. “All I needed to see on the ball was the date of April 15, 1947,” said Hunt, whose company is

running the auction. “At the minimum, you know it’s going to be of some significance.” On that day at Ebbets Field, Robinson played first base for the Brooklyn Dodgers, and Gore umpired at third. The Dodgers beat the Boston Braves 5-3. Afterward, the other two umpires signed it for their rookie partner. On one part of the soiled ball is the inscription — Babe Pinelli + Arthur. On another section, are the words — To Millie from ‘Al’ Barlick. Robinson didn’t sign it. Millie was Gore’s wife and the sister of Flaherty’s father. Gore died in 1986 and his wife died in 1999, Flaherty said. “After my aunt died, we just boxed the stuff up, and my father took it,” Flaherty said. “It’s been sitting in a room in his house for 15 years.”

headlines in the offseason. He has been famously photographed partying and gambling, and even his decision to take classes online last semester became controversial. Manziel said his decision to limit himself exclusively to the virtual classroom was a reaction to the attention he was receiving on campus, though he expects to return to regular classes this summer and next fall.
Not long ago, he tweeted that he “can’t wait to leave college station... whenever it may be.” “Don’t ever forget that I love A&M with all of my heart, but please please walk a day in my shoes,” he added. Manziel even drew attention this weekend after leaving the Manning family’s football camp in Louisiana a day early, citing illness.
“After missing and being late for some practice assignments, Johnny explained that he had been feeling ill. Consequently, we agreed that it was in everyone’s best interest for him to go home a day early,” camp spokesman Greg Blackwell said Sunday. The headlines won’t end any time soon: SEC media days are this week in Alabama, as are ESPN’s ESPY Awards.
