Lions ready to compete for state title Team finds success in family ties BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com
BIGGERSVILLE — It's about chemistry and leadership. Both are attributes that the Biggersville Lions use to describe a 27-8 season and a second consecutive trip to the “Big House” — the Mississippi Coliseum — and the Class 1A State Basketball Finals.
“We've been together since we were young, since sixth or seventh grade,” junior starter Daniel Simmons said, “so we've had chemistry, and thats how we can play with each other we are used to each other.” The Lions claim seven junior members, one senior in Blake Stacy, and three sophomores on the 10-man roster. The 2012 team all took part in the 1A runner-up team, providing experience in playing in the biggest game of the season. As with the 2011 basketball team, one which graduated six seniors, expectations are riding high.
“The expectation is to win the gold ball, we came in second last year and now we want to go back and win - no doubt about it,” Head Coach Cliff Little said of the team. For the second year, the Lions have claimed undefeated records in Division 1-1A play. Little also lead his team to a Class 1A North Half Tournament title in 2011, defeating a familiar opponent in Coldwater High School. The Cougars went on to claim the gold ball and the title in a 68-55 defeat, and handed a loss to Biggersville during this years North Half Tournament -
the 76-55 final proved to be the highest margin in a loss for the season, and one of three double digit differences. “We've just kept bouncing back all season,” Blake Stacy said, “....the last one got away from us a bit, but we know what we can fix. “ Stacy and his teammates point to specific games in the season which taught them lessons, ultimately bringing the team closer together - like a large, boisterous family. “It is a family team, a lot of them are related, and the fact that they've grown up together really makes the team special.

In order to house inmates for the Mississippi Department of Corrections, the local facility has to fall under the ACA guidelines, according to the warden. Auditors inspected the facility on such standards as address services, programs and operations essential to good correctional management, including administrative and fiscal controls, staff training and development, physical plant, safety and emergency procedures, sanitation, food service, and rules and discipline. Standards reflect practical, up-to-date policies and procedures that safeguard the life, health and safety of staff and offenders. “This just didn’t happen overnight,” said Department of Cor-
Dan Burcham is still the Alcorn Central Middle School principal. Burcham will get the chance to prove he has done nothing to warrant his dismissal by Alcorn School District Superintendent Gina Rogers Smith in an executive session hearing. A date will be set once it is agreed upon by board attorney James Price and Burcham’s legal representative Thomas O. Cooley of Langston & Lott, P.A. The school board rejected the resignation request of the principal during a special called meeting Tuesday night. He will now have his case heard before hearing officer John C. Ross. “He is still considered the principal until the date of the hearing,” said Price. “It will be a full-scale hearing before a hearing officer and conducted in executive session unless he chooses to have it heard publicly.” Price said a written report by the officer will be sent to the board at the conclusion of the hearing. “The report will determine whether the termination was proper or improper,” added Price. Cooley believes his client has done nothing wrong to warrant termination. “We will vehemently fight the board over this issue,” said Cooley. “He was wrongly terminated and terminated before he had an execu-

Meeting to focus on gun control Want to know more about what’s going on with gun control? The Alcorn County Republicans are holding a “Meeting on Gun Control and Second Amendment” tonight at the Corinth Library. With the current high level of concern among gun enthusiasts and Second Amendment proponents lately, event organizers are expecting a big turnout. “I think it’s going to be a blowout,” said Mike Stewart, chairman of the Alcorn County Republicans. “This will probably be the biggest meeting we’ve ever had.” The event will begin with a meet-and-greet at 5:30 p.m. followed by a panel of speakers shortly before 6 p.m. Speakers will include: Sheriff Charles Rinehart, Detective Ralph Dance, American History teacher and Second Amendment authority Becky Whittemore, current affairs speaker Bo Perry, NRA Certified Instructor Heidi Hendrix and more. The event will also include a call to join the National Rifle Association. “We’re going to ask everybody to join the NRA. My check is going to be in there too,” said Stewart. The meeting will conclude around 7:30 p.m. with a question-and-answer session
The best teams are usually like that. You can't always get that if you just put a bunch of guys together,” Little said. Inside the family unit resides Little's wife Jana and his daughter Lainey who fill the roles of Team Mom and Little Sister. “A lot of our success comes from what my wife does to help us - things like washing uniforms, keeping the books - all of that adds up and really helps me and the team to focus on playing our best basketball,” Little said.

Alcorn County regional jail receives top marks in accreditation study BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
The Alcorn County Regional Correctional Facility was near perfect. The facility received a score of 99.7 in its initial attempt at accreditation by the American Correctional Association. “We were hoping for a good score, but we didn’t anticipate having the highest score in the state,” said warden Doug Mullins. “The ACA guidelines are pretty strenuous and we couldn’t have done this without the help of a lot of people.” A trio of ACA auditors released the scores Wednesday in the courtroom of the Alcorn County Justice Center. “I don’t know how 44 people get done as much as they get done,” said audit chairper-
son Robert Conley to the large group of people. “You should be very proud of this facility.” Conley continued his high praise of everyone involved. “This is a great day because less than a third of correctional facilities are accredited,” he said. “I am jealous of the complex you have built.” The correctional facility was a perfect 55-for-55 on the mandatory items inspected. It totaled only one non-compliance in the 414 non-mandatory things audited. “I can’t remember the last time I had a facility with only one miss,” added Conley. “When the auditors went through the mandatory files the first day and said everything looked good, I was fine,” added Mullins with a smile.
CT-A Cabaret will celebrate black history BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com
The second installment of Corinth Theatre-Arts’ new monthly event is coming Friday night to the Crossroads Playhouse. The Black History Month Cabaret begins at 7 p.m. Performances will include selections from the play “Gee’s Bend” by Elyzabeth Gregory Wilder. “Gee’s Bend” is a story of some of Civil Rights told through the viewpoints of two sisters living in tiny Gee’s Bend, Ala., an isolated all-black community hemmed in on three sides by the Alabama River. The ladies of Gee’s Bend
eventually found fame and a better life because of their bold and distinctive quilt styles that blended traditional American and African American styles. “They quilted to keep themselves warm — but wound up with art,” said Director Mary Dilworth. Beginning in the late 1930s during the Depression, the story skips forward to the period when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. fought for civil rights in neighboring Selma, Ala., and focuses on the families and their involvement in marches for freedom. The director says working on the play has been an educational and unforgettable expe-
rience. “It’s been a wonderful learning experience,” Dilworth said. “It’s been really exciting, and I’ve learned so much working on it. Cast members include: Tiffany Agnew, Vincent Ross, Josephine Ross, Pam P.G. Taylor, Turkesha White, William Dilworth Jr., Albertine “Peaches” Warren, Andrette Morrison Dilworth and Donna Luster. Between scenes the show will feature poetry, dance and songs by Mary Dilworth, Tiffany Agnew, Katera Bridges, Alyssa Adams and Volante’ Jones.

Sale will benefit children’s program
Thursday, March 7, 2013
BURCHAM CONTINUED FROM 1
BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
A sale to support the snack packs. Pinecrest Baptist Church is hosting a yard and bake sale Friday and Saturday to raise funds for its Pinecrest Weekend Snackpacks for Kids Charity. “Our goal is to raise $2,500,” said program founder R.M. Brooks. Modern Woodmen of the World has pledged to match whatever the event raises up to the goal of $2,500. The sale, which will have breakfast and lunch available, goes from 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. both days
and will be held at the Pinecrest Baptist Family Life Center. “The program requires a monetary commitment of more than $800 a week,” said Brooks. Behind the work of volunteers, who fill and distribute the snacks, along with the many prayers from PWSK, snack packs are able to be delivered to children at six elementary schools in Alcorn County. “Each week during the school year, the PWSK Charity provides 232 children with weekend nutritious snacks,” said Brooks. “Due to the continually increasing number of children receiving
the snacks and the everrising cost of food items needed to fill them, contributions from the community is helpful as we continue to fill this much needed service for our children.” The program began in March of 2011. It has risen from 60 bags the first year to the over 200 of today. Since its initiation, more than 10,000 snack packs have been filled for children. “We supply foods they can eat without much supervision since most of them are by themselves on the weekend,” added Brooks. Last year the program
received a tax-empt 501 (c) 3 non-profit status. “We converted to a full charity since most corporations can’t give to a church, but can to a charity,” added the program’s founder. He came up with the food idea after being saved. “I felt like the Lord was calling me to do something to help children,” he said. Those interested in making a donation to the charity can do so by sending it to the PWSK Fund at SouthBank on Harper Road or to PWSK, 313 Pinecrest Road, Corinth, Ms. 38834.
Officials ready when Africanized bees arrive BY BONNIE COBLENTZ MSU Ag Communications
STARKVILLE — Beekeepers and those who work with bees are taking steps to prepare for the arrival of Africanized honeybees in the state. Jeff Harris, apiculture specialist with the Mississippi State University Extension Service, said that although Africanized bees are more defensive than European bees, it is wrong to think of them as aggressive. “Bees respond to stimuli they perceive as a threat. The difference is in the level of threat they perceive,” Harris said. “Africanized bees come from a climate that has a lot more predators for bees and
honey, and they are more likely to respond to a stimulus as a threat than their European counterparts.” For example, Harris said a person can walk 30 feet from a colony of European bees without them acting threatened. Africanized bees, however, may perceive a threat in a person walking 100 yards away from their colony. “When Africanized bees respond to a threat, they respond faster and in greater numbers,” Harris said. “If you have disturbed bees, the best advice is to run as fast as you can in a straight line with your hands over your face.” Harris said Mississippi officials have a plan to fol-
low when Africanized bees spread through the state. Beekeepers will be trained how to work with these more defensive insects, and exterminators must be certified before they can perform bee removals. “In an area with Africanized bees, you have to behave as if they are all Africanized,” Harris said. In November, the Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce confirmed the presence of an established colony of Africanized honeybees in Harrison County. Kenneth Calcote, plant pest division director, said the colony was destroyed on Oct. 29. Officials set up a perimeter and are looking for
more Africanized honeybees in Harrison County after a colony was found last fall under a house in Pass Christian. “According to the homeowner, the bees had arrived by swarm a few weeks earlier,” Calcote said. “Domestic European honeybees typically do not swarm this late into the fall season, which prompted the Mississippi Department of Agriculture and Commerce to destroy the colony as a precaution and also collect a sample for analysis.” No other colonies of Africanized bees have been found in the area, but officials statewide have Please see BEES | 3

tive session hearing … if pushed we will take this case all the way to chancery court in Alcorn County.” On Tuesday, the district school board rejected the resignation of Burcham after returning from executive session around 20 minutes prior to discussing the matter. District 2 board member James Voyles made the motion to reject the resignation with Mary Kathryn Coleman providing a second. Burcham was placed on administrative leave with pay on Feb. 11 while allegations were being investigated, according to a letter sent to ACMS parents by superintendent Smith on Feb. 18. The letter went on to state he was he was terminated from his position two days later. Close to 25 people were on hand for the meeting in the Alcorn Education Center Board Room, most wanting answers in the almostmonth long ordeal. “Parents want to know why he was fired,” said Emily Turner. “A lot of us (parents) are confused … if there was no harm done to the children, they should tell us what is going on.” Turner has a child in the sixth and seventh grade at Alcorn Central Middle School. “What the board has

gated by the American Correctional Association. Accreditation is achieved through a series of reviews, evaluations, audits and hearings. The audit team will now report its findings to ACA in Alexandria, Va. ACA will schedule an accreditation hearing where a panel will decide if the facility receives its accreditation, according to Epps. “It was a very positive experience for us,” said
Barb Denison, one of the auditors. “We found the staff to be outstanding … they were professional and more than appropriate with all inmates.” Denison also said the inmates told her “they were treated well and felt safe” at the facility. Auditor Kyle Poppert also had praise for the facility that can house 300 inmates. “It takes a lot of courage for folks to be involved in
an accreditation process,” he said. “There is a lot of pressure involved in this, but you folks have risen to the occasion today.” Alcorn County Sheriff Charles Rinehart was quick to acknowledge the hard work of Mullins and the staff. “I appreciate everyone of you,” he told the staff. “I am proud of Doug, he has done a great job of taking this on.” “We couldn’t have done this by ourselves,” added Mullins. “Mr. Irb Benjamin and MCM came in and helped us get everything organized.” Mississippi Correctional Management (MCM) is contracted through the MDOC and does jail development work along with helping with accreditation. “The supervisors are really pleased with the score,” said board chairman Lowell Hinton. “It is unreal for a new facility to get this high of score … it’s a real plus for us having one of the outstanding facilities in the state.”

succeeded in doing is breaking down the communication,” said Donna Burcham, a relative of Dan Burcham. “It seems the teachers have become more hostile to the students because they are in the dark like the rest of us … our children are looking to us (parents) for answers, but we don’t who is right or wrong.” Price told the audience “when the report was first made about misconduct, the superintendent immediately suspended” Burhcam. “The superintendent found there was enough evidence and he was terminated,” said the board attorney. “Under the statue of the law, the school board has not been able to give any information of the misconduct charge.” Price went on to tell the group “there was no student involved in any way” in the charges against Burcham. Local attorney Joseph Wallace informed the school board he has filed action in chancery court on behalf of eight parents he is representing. The action seeks that all documents and records relating to any breach or potential breach of the privacy of ACMS students, whether or not such a breach of privacy is related to personnel decisions affecting the former principal, be made public.
It's often that Lainey is present at practice, playing on her iPod on the sidelines while the Lions talk to her about her day. For Jaylon Gaines, it's as much what happens on the court as off. “Coach has really built a lot of character, taught us to show more respect to everyone,” Gaines said. Gaines’ words echo a sentiment expressed among Biggersville fans, who applaud the hands on philosophy from Little to not only coach but teach life lessons and expect high performances in the classroom. “Some people might call how I coach extreme, but it's about more than winning which is important, but it's not the only thing,” Little said. With one final game on the schedule, the Lions are approaching the end of the road - one which they hope sees a different outcome.
“We've worked hard for that gold ball, we all want it,” Simmons said. Win or lose, Little is thankful for the team and the community support. “They are very special to me, I'm blessed to be here with them and its definitely more than just winning,” Little said, “We want to bring home the trophy for more than just ourselves - we want it to be a thank you to the entire community. They've given up time from work, they've given up ticket money, gas money - we haven't played an away game yet because of them. They have given as much as we have.” The Lions will tip off in the championship game against Coldwater at 2:30 p.m. Thursday. The game will be broadcast on Mississippi Public Broadcasting throughout the state, and be aired through 94.3 WXRZ for radio listeners. Admission for the game is $8.

Today in history
Thursday, March 7, 2013
Things to Do Today Free legal services
Today is Thursday, March 7, the 66th day of 2013. There are 299 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On March 7, 1965, a march by civil rights demonstrators was violently broken up at the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Ala., by state troopers and a sheriff’s posse in what came to be known as “Bloody Sunday.”
On this date: In 1793, during the French Revolutionary Wars, France declared war on Spain. In 1850, in a threehour speech to the U.S. Senate, Daniel Webster of Massachusetts endorsed the Compromise of 1850 as a means of preserving the Union. In 1876, Alexander Graham Bell received a patent for his telephone. In 1912, Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen arrived in Hobart, Australia, where he dispatched telegrams announcing his success in leading the first expedition to the South Pole the previous December. In 1926, the first successful trans-Atlantic radio-telephone conversations took place between New York and London. In 1936, Adolf Hitler ordered his troops to march into the Rhineland, thereby breaking the Treaty of Versailles and the Locarno Pact. In 1945, during World War II, U.S. forces crossed the Rhine River at Remagen, Germany, using the damaged but still usable Ludendorff Bridge. In 1960, Jack Paar returned as host of NBC’s “Tonight Show” nearly a month after walking off in a censorship dispute with the network. In 1963, the Pan Am Building (today the MetLife Building) first opened in midtown Manhattan. In 1975, the U.S. Senate revised its filibuster rule, allowing 60 senators to limit debate in most cases, instead of the previously required two-thirds of senators present. In 1994, the Supreme Court, in Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music Inc., unanimously ruled that a parody that pokes fun at an original work can be considered “fair use” that doesn’t require permission from the copyright holder. (The ruling concerned a parody of the song “Pretty Woman” by the rap group 2 Live Crew.)
Ten years ago: Virtually every musical on Broadway shut down as musicians went on strike, and actors and stagehands said they wouldn’t cross their picket lines; the walkout lasted four days.

Child fatality rate falls in Tennessee BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian
The overall death rate for Tennessee children dropped by 20 percent between 2007 and 2011, according to information released today by the State Child Fatality Review team. Notable factors in that reduction are a decrease in sleep-related infant deaths due to suffocation or strangulation, which were down 16.8 percent from 2010 to 2011, and a 20 percent
drop in deaths of black children between 2007 and 2011. In 13 categories of fatalities measured in the report, Tennessee was identified as improving in 10 and stable in three. The reduction in total children deaths from five years ago represents a difference of 189 lives, the equivalent of more than nine Kindergarten classrooms of children. These numbers are included in an annual report compiled by the Tennessee
Department of Health. A total of 31 interdisciplinary teams comprised of more than 600 Tennesseans participated in the annual local child fatality review teams’ work in 2011. Team members, who serve without pay, follow a process developed by the National Maternal and Child Health Center and conducted a robust review of 802 deaths of children 17 years of age or younger. The data gathered by the teams is submitted to
the State Child Fatality Review team, a group of elected officials and policy makers authorized by the Child Fatality Review Act of 1995. The State CFR team uses aggregated data to analyze incidence rate and causes of child deaths to identify and recommend evidenced-based preventive actions to lower the rate of child fatalities in Tennessee. “The review process is designed to put greater focus on the public health re-
sponse to preventable child mortality,” said TDH Commissioner and State CFR Review team chairman John Dreyzehner, MD. “According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately 40,000 children 17 years and younger die each year in the United States. The work of the local child fatality teams and the State CFR team is a critical part of state and national efforts to improve and save lives of our precious children.”
different on Africanized and European honeybees,” Harris said. “You can also tell the difference by behavior.” Bees’ work in pollination is vital to agriculture and horticulture, and these insects have a significant impact on
the food that arrives on the plates of Americans. Harris said Mississippi honey production had an estimated value of $3.2 million in 2011, and bees are thought to have made a $204 million contribution to agriculture through pollination.
While bees in the great outdoors are a great benefit, bees in houses or swarming near people can present a threat. Numerous resources are available for help, including a newsletter at http:// tinyurl.com/beeproblems that describes what to do
for problem bees. Harris recommended Mississippians dealing with a bee colony or swarm first call a pest control operator for help. Harris at 662-3252976 or Calcote at 662325-3390 may be able to provide more information.

To date, the bees are established in New Mexico, Arizona, California, Nevada, Utah, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Georgia and Florida. The Extension bee specialist said bees cannot be identified as Africanized or European by sight. “A reliable way to identify Africanized bees is by using morphometrics, which takes the measurements of certain body parts known to be

Other Views Higher pay another incentive in attracting better teachers A centerpiece of Gov. Phil Bryant’s proposals to improve education in Mississippi is raising the requirements for college students to major in the education field. On paper, the idea is a good one. In most classrooms, teacher quality plays a huge role in whether students are successful. Bryant’s advisors, for example, cite a Mississippi State University study that a lot more students in grades 3-8 get better state testing scores when their teacher had a higher ACT score. One problem with raising the standards is that they would disqualify a lot of people who are interested in majoring in education. The College Board reported that 49 percent of students currently in education programs at Mississippi universities would not have qualified under the higher standards Bryant proposes. Current education majors would be unaffected by any requirements the state changes. But down the road, the unexpected consequence of sharply higher standards would be a lack of education majors. That ultimately would translate into a shortage of teachers. University education deans met recently in Jackson to discuss the issue. One suggestion that makes sense is to phase in higher requirements for education majors over a few years. The governor’s education advisor agreed that too big a change all at once might defeat the intended purpose of the plan. She said Bryant does not oppose a delay in higher standards or phasing them in, as long as the period is only a couple of years. There’s another way to attract better teaching candidates that few people seem willing to discuss: Pay them more money. A lot more. It’s just common sense that if you want to get the attention of college students, you do it by offering the incentive of higher salaries. ... Bryant is trying to move Mississippi in the right direction by raising teacher standards. But that’s only half of the challenge the state faces. It’s well documented that very few of any university’s top students choose to major in education. The state needs to figure out how to make the profession more appealing, and how to pay for these efforts at a time when money is exceptionally tight. Meanwhile, quit worrying about paying teachers at the Southeastern average. That’s a moving target that little ole Mississippi will never reach. Focus on professional salaries inside the state and pay teachers accordingly. If they’re so important to the future of education, then treat them like it. — Enterprise-Journal, McComb

Zacharias cast a long shadow over MSU In life and in death, Donald W. Zacharias cast a long shadow over Mississippi State University — the school he successfully led from 1985 to 1997 — the second longest tenure in the history of the university behind founding president Stephen D. Lee. Higher education in Mississippi has had few better friends. Long and lanky, and possessed of a lilting voice that served him well during his college days as a radio basketball announcer and disc jockey, Zacharias sought to preserve and grow MSU’s land-grant mission while expanding the school’s boundaries in the arts and sciences. History recognizes that Zacharias was responsible for what was in his era unprecedented growth in MSU’s enrollment, endowments and the quality of the university’s Mitchell Memorial Library. Additionally, the Salem, Ind., native was also a champion of gender equality, meaningful racial recon-
ciliation, and the raising of university academic standards. He was also a man Sid Salter whose personal grace, Columnist humility, and concern for his fellow man made him a dynamic leader of students, faculty and staff alike. Never was Zacharias’ character tested as it was when he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in the 1990s. Because of my family’s experience with the disease — like Don, my late wife Paula died of complications of multiple sclerosis after a lengthy battle in 2005 — he confided in me about his diagnosis long before it become public knowledge. The day he confided that sad fact to me was March 22, 1996. We were in Rupp Arena in Lexington, Ky., in Section 13, Row “R” in seats 9 and 10. State had just beaten Connecticut
60-55 to advance to the NCAA Southeast Regional title game two days later against Cincinnati — which MSU would also win on the way to a Final Four appearance. There was a momentary unsteadiness in his gait, a few seconds of obvious imbalance. He said: “If you don’t mind, I’m going to hold onto your shoulder while we get up these stairs. You just keep walking and we’ll get there together, okay?” At the top of the stairs, he told me what deep down I’d already perceived. Years of steadying my wife’s climb up stairs — feeling that peculiar imbalance — was telltale. He had already been treated by the same Jackson neurologist who had cared for Paula. Don said he knew that he would have to give up the presidency sooner than he had planned, but that he had projects he wanted to finish — and at the detriment of his health, he indeed
finished those projects. Two days later, we were back in our seats at Rupp. State upset Cincinnati to punch their ticket to the Final Four. Before I could rise to help him, Don instinctively made his way down to the court to join in the wild celebration. When he made it to the floor, with MSU players, coaches and fans around him in a moment of pure joy, he looked up at me, raised his fist in the air and shook it triumphantly. Then he wrapped his arms around one of the Bulldog players. That moment is how I choose to remember Don Zacharias — who was triumphant in the face of the elegantly tedious decay of a disease that ultimately takes all but one’s intellect and who embraced the people of Mississippi State University as his own.

Has the bell begun to toll for China? “Why did the Soviet Union disintegrate? Why did the Soviet Communist Party collapse? An important reason was that their ideals and convictions wavered,” China’s new leader, Xi Jinping, told a closed meeting of party elite in Guangdong province. “Finally all it took was one quiet word from Gorbachev to declare the dissolution of the Soviet Communist Party, and a great party was gone,” said Xi, according to notes obtained by The New York Times. “Everyone is talking about reform, but in fact everyone has a fear of reform,” said Chinese historian Ma Jong. “The question is: Can society be kept under control while you go forward? That is the test.” That is indeed the test. What is it that gives a party its legitimacy, its right to rule? What holds a nation together when its cradle faith, its founding ideology, has been abandoned by both elites and the people? That is China’s coming crisis. With victory in the civil war with the Nationalists in 1949, Mao claimed to have liberated China from both Japanese imperialists and Western colonialists, and restored her dignity. “China has stood up!” he said. His party’s claim to absolute power was rooted in what it had done, and also what it must do. Only

a party with total power could lead a world revolution. Only an all-powerful party could abolish inequality in a way that made the French Revolution look like a rebellion at Berkeley. Xi JinPat ping’s probBuchanan lem? The Columnist Cold War is over. China is herself in the capitalist camp, a member of the G-8, and inequality in the People’s Republic resembles that of America in the Gilded Age. If Marxism is mocked behind closed doors by a new economic elite and tens of millions of Chinese young, what can cause the nation to continue to respect and obey a Communist Party and its leaders, besides the gun? The answer of Europe in the 1930s is China’s answer today. Nationalism, tribalism, patriotic war if necessary, will bring the masses back. If the Chinese nation is being insulted, if ancestral lands are occupied by foreigners as in olden times, the people will rally around a regime that stands up for China. Nationalism will keep Chinese society “under control while you go forward.” Japan’s Prime Minister
Shinzo Abe traces the aggressiveness of Beijing in the Senkaku Islands dispute to a “deeply ingrained” need to appeal to Chinese nationalism in the form of antiJapanese sentiment dating to the Sino-Japanese War of 1937-1945. Chinese nationalism, says Abe, is also behind China’s quarrels with Vietnam and other nations over islands of the South China Sea. If Beijing is unable to deliver economic growth, “it will not be able to control the 1.3 billion people ... under the one-party rule,” Abe told The Washington Post. He is now denying those quotes. But China is not alone in stoking the flames of nationalism to maintain legitimacy. In Russia, a nation that saw its Orthodox faith ripped up by the roots by Josef Stalin, then saw its Marxist-Leninist ideology and a Communist Party that was its Vatican collapse, is searching to locate the ancient sources of Russian patriotism and nationhood. Vladimir Putin seeks to knit back together the empire of the Romanovs and revive the old church. In the Muslim world, the secularism of Gamal Abdel Nasser and Saddam Hussein and Bashar Assad are yielding to forces that look all the way back to Muhammad and the Quran as infallible guides to politics, law

and national greatness. The Sunni-Shia split recalls our Catholic-Protestant split in the time of Luther, Calvin, Henry VIII, the Council of Trent and the Thirty Years War. Nor should America be smug about this search for legitimacy. Our British-Protestant then European-Christian identity has gone the way of the Cheshire Cat. In the age of Obama, Jefferson’s Declaration and Madison’s Constitution are invoked to justify societal mandates that would have had the Founding Fathers loading muskets. What is our guiding light now that the philosophical, cultural, religious and political roots of the old republic are being systematically severed? What gives legitimacy to the American government? Elections, majority rule through universal suffrage of a people, ever-larger shares of whom are ignorant of the faith, culture and civilization whence we came? If our economy should sink like Southern Europe’s, if the great god Progress no longer smiles upon us, what do we fall back on? One day, Americans will begin to ask themselves such questions, if they have not already begun to do so. (Daily Corinthian columnist Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?”)

TSA to allow small knives, clubs on planes WASHINGTON — Airline passengers will be able to carry small knives, souvenir baseball bats, golf clubs and other sports equipment onto planes beginning next month under a policy change announced Tuesday by the head of the Transportation Security Administration. The new policy conforms U.S. security standards to international standards, and allows TSA to concentrate its energies on more serious safety threats, the agency said in a statement. The announcement, made by TSA Administrator John Pistole at an airline industry gathering in New York, drew an immediate outcry from unions representing flight attendants and other airline workers, who said the items are still dangerous in the hands of the wrong passengers. Transport Workers Union Local 556, which represents over 10,000 flight attendants at Southwest Airlines, called the new policy “dangerous” and “shortsighted,” saying it was designed to make “the lives of TSA staff easier, but not make flights safer.” “While we agree that a passenger wielding a small knife or swinging a golf club or hockey stick poses less of a threat to the pilot locked in the cockpit, these are real threats to passengers and flight attendants in the passenger cabin,” the union said in a statement. The policy change was based on a recommendation from an internal TSA working group, which decided the items represented no real danger, said David Castelveter, a spokesman for the agency. The presence on flights of gun-carrying pilots traveling as passengers, federal air marshals and airline crew members trained in self-defense provide additional layers of security to protect against misuse of the items, he said. However, not all flights have federal air marshals or armed pilots onboard. The new policy permits folding knives with blades that are 2.36 inches or less in length and are less than 1/2inch wide. The policy is aimed at allowing passengers to carry pen knives, corkscrews with small blades and other knives. Passengers also will be allowed to bring onboard as part of their carry-on luggage noveltysized baseball bats less than 24 inches long, toy plastic bats, billiard cues, ski poles, hockey sticks, lacrosse sticks and two golf clubs, the agency said. The policy goes into effect on April 25. Security standards
adopted by the International Civil Aviation Organization, a U.N. agency, already call for passengers to be able to carry those items. Those standards are non-binding, but many countries follow them. Box cutters, razor blades and knives that don’t fold or that have molded grip handles will still be prohibited, the TSA said. Reaction to the changes was mostly positive among travelers interviewed Tuesday at Los Angeles International Airport.
Schools shift from textbooks to tablets WASHINGTON — Well before the cleanup from Superstorm Sandy was in full swing, students could read about the weather system that slammed the East Coast in their textbooks. Welcome to the new digital bookcase, where traditional ink-and-paper textbooks have given way to iPads and book bags are getting lighter. Publishers update students’ books almost instantly with the latest events or research. Schools are increasingly looking to the hand-held tablets as a way to sustain students’ interest, reward their achievements and, in some cases, actually keep per-student costs down. “We must use technology to empower teachers and improve the way students learn,” said Joel Klein, a former New York City schools’ chief who now leads News Corp.’s education tablet program. “At its best, education technology will change the face of education by helping teachers manage the classroom and personalize instruction.” News Corp. introduced their Amplify tablet during a breakfast Wednesday at the South by Southwest conference in Austin, Texas. Priced at $299, the 10-inch unit runs on a school’s wireless Internet system and comes with software for teachers to watch each student’s activities, offer instant polls and provide anonymous quizzes to gauge student understanding. Orders placed by June 30 will be ready for the start of the school year in the fall, officials at Rupert Murdoch’s company said, adding yet another platform for schools to consider. Putting a device in every student’s hand is not a pie-in-the-sky dream. Some 2,000 schools already have partnered with Google to use its lightweight Chromebooks, which start at $199. Some 20 million students and teachers are already using them, company officials said. And a study from the Pew Research Center’s Internet and American Life Project found that more than 40 percent of students or teachers use some sort of tablet in their Advanced Place-

ment and National Writing Project classrooms. “When you think about it, these are A.P. classes and National Writing Project classes, and 4 in 10 say they are using these devices,” said Kristen Purcell, associate director for research at Pew Research Center’s Internet and American Life Project. “That’s 6 in 10 who aren’t using them. We still have a lot of room for growth.” In coming years, growth seems to be the norm. Christine Quinn, the speaker of the New York City Council, has suggested replacing textbooks — they cost the city $100 million a year — with tablets. Schools in Los Angeles last month allocated $50 million to start buying tablets for every student; the project is expected to cost $500 million by the time it is completed. Schools in McAllen, Texas, distributed 6,800 Apple tablets last year at a cost of $20.5 million. But it’s not just the biggest school districts making the shift. The Eanes Independent School District in Austin is distributing more than 2,000 iPads to every student, from kindergarteners to high school seniors. The cost: $1.2 million. Students, unlike some of their parents, aren’t blinking. “The biggest challenge is that they’re growing up as digital natives, but when they get to the school door, they have to leave that at the door,” said Scott Kinney, who trains teachers on how to use Discovery Education’s products, which work on various platforms. “Kids are very comfortable with these things, so why aren’t we reaching them in a way that’s most beneficial to students?” Discovery, the top digital content provider to U.S. schools, recognizes its potential to keep students interested with the most up-to-date material. For instance, it updated its science lessons for students in grades six through high school to incorporate Superstorm Sandy within weeks of its making landfall. Students traced the path of the storm using digital maps, compared the changes in barometric pressure with wind speed and proposed cleanup plans for the region — even while cleanup crews were still working. That fast turnaround is one of the main advantages of shifting to digital textbooks. So, too, are their language functions. For instance, a student working on his homework with a parent who isn’t fluent in English can switch to Spanish. The textbooks can toggle between languages so students who aren’t native speakers can check their understanding. Another advantage:

House sends school prayer bill to Bryant JACKSON — The House has sent a bill to Gov. Phil Bryant that could legalize student prayer before school audiences. Senate Bill 2633 is also meant to guarantee religious freedom in Mississippi public schools, ensuring students can talk about spiritual beliefs and aren’t deprived of their rights. The House voted 1086 for final passage of the bill Wednesday. The measure would guarantee student rights to talk about faith in classwork and allow them to organize religious clubs. But it also would create a path to allow students to pray at school events and during morning announcements It suggests naming such events as “limited public forums,” choosing students to speak at each. The bill says schools can’t punish students who pray, and sponsors say the aim is to promote such prayer.
Bill passed to study school board makeup JACKSON — The House has given final passage to a bill to study the structure of local school boards. House members voted 66-50 for Senate Bill 2141 Wednesday. It now goes to Gov. Phil Bryant for his approval. If approved, the study by a 13-member panel could take until 2015. Lawmakers had originally considered requiring all local school board members to be elected at one time, as a companion change to a proposal to appoint all district superintendents. Some lawmakers believe school boards should be elected because they can raise property taxes. Today, county school boards are elected, while some city school boards are entirely appointed. Some city boards are a mix of appointed and elected members. Terms vary in length. Considering the variety of board structures, lawmakers say study was needed.
FBI monitoring investigation of candidate’s death JACKSON — The FBI says it has been monitoring the state investigation into the death of an openly gay mayoral candidate in Mississippi. FBI spokeswoman Deborah Madden said Wednesday the agency “will assess evidence to determine whether federal prosecution is appropriate.” Her statement stopped short of saying the agency has opened its own investigation.

House passes home-brewing bill JACKSON — The House has sent a bill to Gov. Phil Bryant that would legalize home brewing in Mississippi. House members voted 70-36 Wednesday to approve Senate Bill 2183, which allows people 21 and older to brew up to 200 gallons of beer each year, as long as they live in a city or county where alcohol is legal. The measure exempts home brewers from permits and excise taxes charged by the Department of Revenue. The attorney general had said home-brewing is legal in Mississippi, but tax authorities had said it didn’t have legal authority to create a permit specifically aimed at home brewers. The bill says homebrewed beer can’t be sold and can only be taken outside a home when the brewer is taking it to a tasting event or competition.
Man sues deputies, alleges brutality STARKVILLE — A Jackson man has filed
a lawsuit alleging police brutality by two Oktibbeha County Sheriff’s deputies. The lawsuit was filed in Oktibbeha County Circuit Court last month on behalf of Maurice Washington, a member of the Marine Corps Reserves. The lawsuit alleges police brutality and excessive force. It says Washington was shocked with a stun gun while handcuffed. Attorney Carlos Moore says a video shows the incident. The lawsuit says deputies stormed an apartment and demanded identification. It says deputies attacked Washington when he reached for his wallet. The sheriff’s office referred questions to the lawyer for the Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors, who declined to comment on pending litigation.

An affidavit read in court says the impact to Moore’s head once it hit the jail’s concrete floor resulted in hemorrhaging in his brain, ultimately causing the 46-year-old’s death.

His replacement, Robert Kaluza, and fellow BP well site leader Donald Vidrine are charged with manslaughter in the deaths of 11 rig workers and await a separate trial. An indictment last year accuses Kaluza and Vidrine of disregarding abnormally high pressure readings that should have been glaring signs of trouble just before the blowout. Sepulvado said the Macondo project was running behind schedule in part because a storm had damaged the rig that was drilling the well before the Deepwater Horizon was brought in to take over.

JACKSON — The University of Mississippi Medical Center is expanding its program offering smaller hospitals, clinics and other institutions electronic access to its staff and resources. Officials said the move will eventually will create 201 jobs. A $450,000 grant from the Delta Regional Authority is a mix of state and federal money and will cover equipment purchases. UMMC has applied for a USDA grant that would help broaden the program’s diabetes services. UMMC officials said the program, called “telehealth,” will become available to more institutions statewide, particularly smaller hospitals and clinics where extra help can be needed to treat patients or train professionals, says Kristi Henderson, who heads the hospital’s telehealth division. “Where you live shouldn’t dictate the level of health care you receive anymore. If they have a need for a cardiologist, we can provide that. If they have a
need for a stroke (specialist), we can provide that. With this, we’re going to broaden the scope of services,” Kristi Henderson, who heads the hospital’s telehealth division, told The Clarion-Ledger. Henderson said six new jobs will be created soon with more coming over three years. Some of the new hires will be based in UMC’s telehealth office in Jackson, while others will work out of the hospitals and clinics that partner with the hospital. The services also will be available at each office of the Mississippi State University Extension System. The telehealth program has been around for about a decade. It provides video-conferencing and distancelearning services for patients and professionals. UMC partners with 100 hospitals, clinics, schools and other institutions for telehealth and hopes to add more of them to its ranks. The level of telehealth services varies from one location to another. Officials said the expansion includes a goal of training 511 health care professionals, particularly in things like mental and behavioral health, where such services are scarce to nonexistent in many rural areas.

Lowe is the master of dirty politics in ‘Knife Fight’ Knife Fight, R, *****, Rob Lowe, Janie Chong, Eric McCormack, David Harbour, Carrie-Anne Moss; Divisadero Production; Director Bill Guttentag; length — 99 minutes In “Knife Fight,� Paul Turner (Rob Lowe) is known as the “Master of Disaster.� He is a political strategist who likes to Terry take clients Burns who can win with a Movie Critic little help from his expertise. The opening credits shows pictures of former well-known politicians. Some were winners while
others lost. Some we wish had lost. These interesting pictures set the pace for an excellent political drama. Paul’s assistant and right-hand confidant is Kerster Rhee (Jackie Chong). They have taken on two politicians. The two individuals are Kentucky governor Larry Becker (Eric McCormack) and California senator Stephen Green (David Harbour). Turner and Rhee have their hands full with these two deviant politicians. Becker is a philandering and Harbour is being blackmailed. However, they try to make a difference in the long run. It is the job of Paul and Kerster to cover up the dirt, wrong choices, and immoral troubles these
two politicians have managed to get themselves into. Another aspiring politician is Dr. Penelope Nelson (Carrie-Ann Moss). She is idealistic and helps people who cannot afford medical assistance. She has some great ideas about making a difference as the governor of California. Turner does not think she has a chance and is reluctant to take her as a client. He eventually gives in to Nelson, a feisty and determined individual wanting to do the right thing. When the opposition attacks one of Turner’s clients, he utters the famous words from the movie, “Godfather� . . . “We are going to the mattresses.� Politics is a blood sport.
The script of “Knife Fight� is based on the ideal of politics being a blood sport. The movie advances like a jet airplane traveling across the United States while breaking the sound barrier. There are more than enough fiascos to maneuver around for the “Master of Disaster� and his team. It is not a surprise most of us have lost our trust in politicians. They have the same human weaknesses but are in the limelight. Reporters and opponents are salivating just to find a vulnerability to bring a political candidate down. “Knife Fight� does not drench the audience with sugar-coated sweetness. It lays out the facts that have to be dealt with. As the ugliness of Turner’s work begins to bother

him, he has to find a way to reconcile himself with the consequences of his action. “Politicians make strange bedfellows,� but politics touch all phases of our lives. Hopefully, those chosen are people with character and vision. “Knife Fight� may not be playing anywhere nearby. I could not find it at local theaters. It is available with Video on Demand. I viewed it on
Amazon. (Terry Burns is technology coordinator for the McNairy County School System. A lifelong movie buff, he can be contacted by email at burns984@bellsouth.net.

‘I’ll Remember Jaybird,’ mentor, storyteller, hard worker BY JIMMY REED Columnist
I was raised on a Mississippi Delta cotton plantation, a barefoot boy’s paradise. Looking back, I realize it wasn’t the place so much as the people — mainly one man — who instilled in me the beliefs and values that guide my life. He was a black man named Jaybird. Whenever I come to forks in life’s road where I must choose between the easy way and the courageous way, I ask myself, “What would Jaybird do?� Let me tell you about him. Although he moved slowly, Jaybird rarely
stopped moving and had rocket fuel energy. His gray head was intelligently shaped, narrow with protruding eyebrows and sloping forehead. His shiny black eyes snapped vivaciously. From tightlipped pensiveness, his face exploded often in capricious smiles as refreshing as the sun popping from behind clouds. Jaybird was a study in opposites: His lean body looked frail, but was bound head to toe with strong, wiry muscles; his gait was bow-legged, but he stood ramrod straight; his demeanor was stern, his smile light-hearted. He was health in motion, but smoked cigarettes
and drank whiskey; he possessed a powerful intelligence and bedrock wisdom, yet never darkened a schoolhouse door. Jaybird spoke like he moved — paced, rhythmic. Work-hardened hands accentuated his speech. His Southern drawl sloughed off words, and those possessing knowledge of field-hand vernacular understood him best. His deep, raspy voice was hypnotic, like a swamp bullfrog’s precisely spaced croaks on a dead calm, summer night. We children sat at his feet, rapt, wide-eyed, mute, vicariously participating in adventure
stories about the Delta of his youth — about bears, panthers, screech owls, rattlesnakes, alligators, the Great Flood, hunting, fishing, fighting and loving. Poet Robert Frost said it best: “Dawn goes down to day, nothing gold can stay.â€? I grew up, or down, really ‌ into the rat-race world of paying bills, raising kids and sweating out crops. I loved farming. Jaybird taught me about the perpetual magic of soil, water, sunshine, and chlorophyll. His faith in God was unfaltering, and each spring when he stooped to work the ground and start yet another fine gar-
den, he prayed, “Lord, let my love for this soil show in the plants I grow from it.� One fine summer day I heard his wife wail, “Jaybird is bad sick!� My sinking heart told me it was more than sick. Fighting tears, I raced to his house and found him under his favorite tree. He had been rigging his fishing pole, and monofilament line coiled in his fingers. Beside his head lay a cigarette, its smoke swirling lazily over his old hat. The frozen grimace on his face gaped his mouth open and turned the corners upward, in a final, gold-toothed smile. The massive stroke felled
him instantly, but he faced it with the same indomitable courage that sustained him all his life. In death he smiled. Death could never defeat a man like him, so wise, so gentle, so decent, and so brave. For the rest of my days, I’ll remember Jaybird.

WHAT HAPPENED TO DISCIPLINE?
Years ago, people believed that children should be disciplined for their own good. Many now believe that children should not be disciplined. Notice what the Bible teaches. “Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it� (Prov 22:6). The drastic change in thinking is now creating numerous problems in schools and society in general. God disciplines His children because He loves them. “For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth� (Heb 12:6). Parents who love their children should also love, chasten and train their children as well. A child left to itself will bring the parents to shame. “The rod and reproof give wisdom: but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame� (Prov 29:15). Chastening may keep children out of trouble while here and also determine their eternal destiny hereafter. “Withhold not correction from the child: for if thou beatest him with the rod, he shall not die. Thou shalt beat him with the rod, and shalt deliver his soul from hell� (prov 23:13-14). The instruction given by Solomon was given by the inspiration of God and is certainly reliable. New school of thought on child rearing originated with men and not with God. It would not take a Solomon to know that what God has revealed is far superior to anything written by men. Why not go back to the Bible rather than following fads which will only bring heartache and misery? Children should learn to respect and obey their parents.�Children, obey your parents in the Lord: for this is right� (Eph 6:1). Children should honor their father and mother. “Honour thy father and mother; (which is the first commandment with promise;) That it may be well with thee, and thou mayest live long on the earth� (Eph 6:3-4). What is it that is superior to the teachings of the Bible? Which is better to follow - men or the Bible?

The new leaders included Lehman Brothers. But the collapse of the investment bank, the financial crisis and the increase in government regulations have pummeled the industry. Financial stocks in the S&P 500 have sunk 49.6 percent since Oct. 9, 2007, and they now make up 16 percent of the index. The change of leadership mirrors their profit performances.

Consumer stocks have also become a bigger piece of the market. Stocks of companies that sell basics and necessities, as well as discretionary items to consumers have posted the biggest gains since 2007.

Excluding Apple, the S&P 500 would be up almost 9 percent, a full percentage point more than its current rise, according to S&P Dow Jones Indices. Back on Oct. 9, 2007, when the S&P 500 set its record, the financial industry was the biggest in the market. It made up 20 percent of the index and

Thought of going to the dentist wipes smile off woman’s face DEAR ABBY: I am writing to you because I can share this anonymously. I am close to 60 years old and I’m terrified of the dentist. Every time I pick up the phone to make an appointment I get so anxious I feel like I’m going to die. Do you think I will be able to find a caring, compassionate and nonjudgmental dentist? Abigail Are they out Van Buren there? Sometimes I wish Dear Abby I could die instead of going to the dentist. Am I crazy? — MRS. ANXIETY IN THE U.S.A. DEAR MRS. ANXIETY: Let me put it this way -- if you’re crazy, you have a lot of company. Many people fear going to the dentist. However, there have been improvements in the field since you were a child -- including sedation for people who choose “not to be there” while their dental problems are being attended to. Good dental health is very important to our overall health, so please don’t put off any further making an appointment. Tell the person who is booking the appointment what your needs are, and if that dentist can’t accom-
modate you, ask for a referral to one who can. DEAR ABBY: I have been a nanny for four families over the last 10 years. I am now working for a family of five. I don’t make a lot of money, but I enjoy what I do. My problem is all the gift-buying I feel required to do -- such as on the children’s birthdays, Christmas and the mom’s birth of more babies. My employer is expecting yet another baby this summer and her 3-year-old has another birthday coming up. I’m tired of the gift-buying and really can’t afford to do it anymore. When the new baby is born, I am tempted to just say “Congratulations!” Any suggestions? — GIFTED OUT DEAR GIFTED OUT: Yes. When the newest addition to the family arrives, give your employer a nice card. You should not be expected to come up with a gift. You are already giving these children loving and responsible care and that is gift enough. DEAR ABBY: During the first year of our marriage, my husband cheated on me with women from his past as well as new encounters. When I confronted him, he promised to stop. He would then call and email these women, and tell them I was checking up on him and he’d contact them later.
This has gone on for years. He swears he’s no longer cheating, and we have sought counseling — which I stopped because the counselor and I agreed that my husband didn’t think he had a problem. When I confront him with my suspicions, he insists that I am “driving him away” by accusing him. He is very arrogant, and people who don’t know him believe he’s a great guy and I am the problem. I have considered revenge cheating, but it goes against my morals. I think about divorcing him, but then I think -- what if I am wrong? What if he really is being faithful? What should I do? I love him. — UNSURE IN TEXAS DEAR UNSURE: I agree that “revenge” cheating is not the solution to your problem. Hire a private detective and get to the bottom of this. If you’re wrong, you need counseling to resolve your insecurities. However, if he’s cheating, you will know you haven’t been imagining things and can decide rationally if it’s in your best interests to continue being married to a womanizer.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19). You’ll get the chance to show what you’ve been up to and get some constructive feedback. If others seem surprised by your work, it’s just because you’ve been doing it so quietly. They had no idea what to expect from you. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You sense how others are feeling even when they don’t want you to. They may deny their emotions or show you nonverbally that they don’t want to talk about it. Let them know that you’re ready when they are. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Enjoy this low-stress day. It will be as though someone has stepped in to clear the path before you of potentially problematic situations. Whatever was triggering stress in you will no longer be an issue. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Discuss your plans for the future with everyone who will be involved in making them happen. Assume nothing. Details must be hashed out. Make sure everyone is on the same page.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As a child, you felt that you had more control over your world than you actually did. The trend continues today, as you feel responsible for something that you have no impact on. Step back; just let it be. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your imagination is nearly as real to you as your reality, and it certainly colors all that you experience. The only trouble is, unless you express yourself, you’re the only participant in your imagination. Share as much as possible today. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Some are content to float along unaware of themselves, but not you. You’ll wake up to what’s going on inside you. Give a name to what you are feeling, and you’ll have a greater sense of control over it. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). It is not your aim to lead the pack, and yet as you do what feels necessary and right (instead of what is convenient), you shine as someone who is deserving of honor and position.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21). In a moment of complete relaxation, you’ll suddenly understand what you’ve been missing. It’s as though you finally have the key that will unlock your success in a certain situation. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You are susceptible to the spark of attraction and wouldn’t want it any other way. Being around certain people -- indeed, just knowing these people are in the world -- is enough to make you feel romantic and vibrant. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Even though you are usually sociable and easy-going, new situations and people have you feeling uncharacteristically vulnerable to intense emotionality. This will soon pass. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Though you may not be able to control your inner response to what you experience this afternoon, your external reaction will show a level of restraint, positivity and class that will impress many.

BEN MCLEMORE, KANSAS McLemore set a Kansas single-game freshman record with 36 points in the Jayhawks’ 91–65 win over West Virginia on Saturday. The 6'5" guard from St. Louis hit 12-of-15 from the field (including 7-of-9 from three) and added seven rebounds and four assists. McLemore followed up with 13 points in Monday’s 37-point win over Texas Tech.

ROMERO OSBY, OKLAHOMA Three days after scoring a career-high 21 points in a six-point loss at Texas, Osby led Oklahoma to a crucial 86–69 win over Iowa State. The former transfer from Mississippi State scored 22 points and grabbed nine rebounds to lead five Sooners in double figures. Osby hit 10-of-10 from the foul line to help OU tie an NCAA record for most free throws made (34) without a miss. DOUG MCDERMOTT, CREIGHTON Playing in perhaps his last home game of his brilliant career, McDermott scored 41 points (on 15-of-18 shooting) to lead Creighton to a 91–79 win over Wichita State. McDermott has one more year of eligibility, but he is projected to be a late first-round pick in the NBA Draft. Creighton is the No. 1 seed in this week’s Missouri Valley Tournament. ALEX ORIAKHI, MISSOURI Oriakhi scored 18 points, grabbed 10 boards and blocked four shots in Missouri’s 89–76 win over LSU in Columbia. A senior transfer from Connecticut, Oriakhi converted 9-of-11 from the field en route to his sixth double-double in SEC play. DWAYNE EVANS, SAINT LOUIS Evans scored 22 points and grabbed 12 rebounds as Saint Louis beat George Washington 68–58 for its 11th straight win. Earlier in the week, Evans, a 6'5" senior forward, went for 21 and 12 in SLU’s 70–53 victory over Saint Joseph’s. The Billikens hold a one-game lead over VCU in the A-10 with two games remaining. RODNEY MCGRUDER, KANSAS STATE McGruder only made one 3-point field goal, but it was a big one. The senior guard sank a three as the final buzzer sounded to give Kansas State a 64–61 win at Baylor. McGruder ended the game with 18 points, five rebounds and four assists for the Wildcats, who remain tied for first in the Big 12 with rival Kansas. ELSTON TURNER, TEXAS A&M Turner poured in 28 points and added four rebounds, five assists and four steals in Texas A&M’s 74–56 win over South Carolina. The transfer from Washington has averaged 27.2 points in the last six games, including 37 points in a win over Ole Miss and 38 in a four-overtime loss to Tennessee. OTTO PORTER JR., GEORGETOWN Porter Jr. made another statement in his case for Big East Player of the Year honors. The sophomore forward filled up the box score with 28 points, eight rebounds, four steals and three blocks as the Hoyas overcame a slow start to beat Rutgers 64–51 for their 11th straight win. TREY BURKE, MICHIGAN Burke is known for his ability to score and run the team — and he did both against Michigan State with 21 points and eight assists — but he made his mark in this game with two key steals down the stretch to help Michigan hold off MSU 58–57. With the score tied 56–56, Burke stripped the ball from Keith Appling with 22 seconds remaining and drove for the goahead basket. Then, he stole a Gary Harris pass in the closing seconds to seal the win for the Wolverines. RYAN KELLY, DUKE Playing for the first time in two months, Kelly exploded for a career-high 36 points to carry Duke to a 79–76 over Miami in a battle of ACC heavyweights. Kelly, a senior forward, missed 13 games with a foot injury. He shot the ball well in his return, hitting 10-of-14 from the field, including 7-of-9 from 3-point range.

KENTAVIOUS CALDWELL-POPE, GEORGIA Georgia rebounded from a heartbreaking loss to Vanderbilt by completing a season sweep over Tennessee with a 78–68 win over the Vols in Athens. Caldwell-Pope, the SEC’s secondleading scorer, led the way with 25 points and eight rebounds. KCP has scored 10 points or more in every game this season.
Pressure will be on Zags to live up to hype in NCAAs. Kelly’s return makes Duke very difficult to guard. IU closing in on first outright league title since 1989. Hoyas didn’t lose a game in February. Burke buckles down on defense against MSU. Canes lose a heartbreaker at Cameron Indoor. Still can’t believe this team lost to TCU. Cardinals are playing well at the right time of year. Spartans need Appling to play well to thrive in March. Injuries have been a factor in Gators’ recent struggles. McGruder comes through in the clutch in Waco. Marcus is the Smart choice for Freshman of the Year. Red-hot Lobos have clinched the outright MWC title. Orange attack has been offensive during recent slide. Bucks finally have more than one double-digit scorer. Williams working miracles in Milwaukee once again. Crews hoping to make this a permanent gig. Bruins hit the road for key games in Washington. Artis’ return boosts Ducks’ postseason hopes. Cooley only player in Big East averaging a double-double. Pitt tops Nova in final home game as a Big East school. Cats having trouble scratching out wins these days. Small ball working wonders for Roy’s boys. Senior Night sadness as Badgers lose to Purdue. Rams wreak havoc on overwhelmed Butler.

Trey Burke: the best in the nation Who is your National Player of the Year? Mitch Light: After spending a few minutes trying to find a reason not to pick Trey Burke as the National Player of the Year, I came to the following conclusion: There is no other viable option. Burke ranks second in the league in scoring (18.9 ppg) while also leading the league in assists (6.9 apg). He is a high-volume shooter, but it’s hard to knock a guy who is shooting 49.5 percent overall and 38.5 percent from 3point range. And while he’s not known for his defense, he came up with the two biggest steals of Michigan’s season in the final 30 seconds of the Wolverines’ win over Michigan State on Sunday. Burke is a complete player — and he’s the best player in the nation. David Fox: Sunday reinforced why Trey Burke is the National Player of the Year. His game against Michigan State was incredible — 21 points, eight assists, five steals. In crunch time, he had the steal and dunk to put Michigan ahead and then the steal to clinch the win to keep the Wolverines in the hunt for a No. 1 seed. And keep in mind: He was coming off a disastrous game (for him) against Penn State earlier in the week. Burke is the nation’s top point guard this season and the leader of a team with a chance to win it all. He’s my Player of the Year. Nathan Rush: Michigan’s Trey Burke snatched National Player of the Year honors with a pair of lastminute steals to beat Michigan State on Sunday. Burke had 21 points, eight assists, five steals, four rebounds and one blocked shot in the 58–57 victory in Ann Arbor. The sophomore has done it all for U-M and deserves to be recognized as the top player in the country. Which major conference team has the most pressure on it in the final week of the season? Mitch Light: This is going to be an agonizing stretch for Ole Miss, which is hoping to earn its first NCAA Tournament invite since 2002. The Rebels were in decent shape until last weekend’s stunning

loss at Mississippi State. With an RPI of 58 and only one top-50 RPI win, Ole Miss likely needs to win its final two regular-season games and pick up at least one decent win in the SEC Tournament to give itself a chance for an at-large bid. David Fox: There are bubble teams that are under pressure, but Syracuse may have the most to lose or gain in the final week of the season. The Orange have lost six of 10 and three in a row going into the final week of the regular season. This was a team we thought would be in contention for a national title, but Jim Boeheim’s team is in a tailspin. And Boeheim, in sparring with the media, seems to be as frustrated as ever. Syracuse can reclaim some momentum by avenging its loss to Georgetown or it can limp into the postseason.

Nathan Rush: The entire Big Blue Nation will be watching these Kentucky Wildcats and expecting John Calipari’s club to deliver in the final week of the season. The defending national champs are in jeopardy of missing the NCAA field of 68 just one season after cutting down the nets for UK’s eighth national title. Granted, that's become somewhat of a trend lately — with Florida (2008) and North Carolina (2010) both failing to make the Tournament as reigning national champs. But that type of drop-off is unacceptable in Lexington, where the grass is blue and expectations for the 2012-13 season were higher than Nerlens Noel’s high-top fade haircut. The Cats have a trip to Georgia and a home game against Florida to play before the SEC Tourney tips off. And no doubt about it, the pressure is on UK. David Fox 52-28

SATURDAY, MARCH 9 FLORIDA AT KENTUCKY Kentucky’s hopes of catching Florida for the top spot in the SEC are all but over, but this is still a huge game for the Wildcats. With only one top-50 RPI win — at home against Missouri — Kentucky is in desperate need of another quality win. The Gators have struggled of late on the road, with losses in three of their last four away from home. This is a winnable game for the Wildcats. SYRACUSE AT GEORGETOWN Georgetown, which hasn’t lost since Jan. 19, is on the verge of winning its first outright Big East title since 2008. Heading into the final week of the season, the Hoyas have a one-game lead over Louisville and Marquette. Syracuse is mired in a puzzling funk. The Orange were 18–1 after beating Cincinnati on Jan. 21. Now, Jim Boeheim’s club is 22–7 after Saturday’s home loss to Louisville. It’s tough to imagine this team winning at Georgetown. KANSAS STATE AT OKLAHOMA STATE Surprising Kansas State can secure no worse than a tie for the Big 12 title with a win in Stillwater. That, however, won’t be easy. Oklahoma State has lost only twice at Gallagher-Iba Arena, to Gonzaga in December and to Kansas, in overtime, late last month. The Cowboys are a lock to make the NCAA Tournament, but they could use a few more quality wins to improve their seed. MISSOURI AT TENNESSEE This is a must win for a Tennessee team that put itself in a precarious position with a loss at Georgia on Saturday. The Volunteers, who had won six straight before the loss in Athens, only have two top-50 RPI wins — none away from home. Missouri is 2–6 on the road in the SEC, but the last four losses have been in overtime at Kentucky, by two at Arkansas, by two at Texas A&M and by three at LSU. The Tigers are capable of winning in Knoxville. NOTRE DAME AT LOUISVILLE It’s a rematch of the longest regular-season game in Big East history — Notre Dame’s four-overtime, 104–101 victory over Louisville on Feb. 9. The Cardinals haven’t lost since, running their winning streak to six straight with a 67–51 win over Cincinnati on Monday night. Notre Dame is a solid 4–4 on the road in the league this season, highlighted by a 51–42 victory at Pittsburgh last Monday night. The Fighting Irish have an opportunity to enhance their NCAA Tournament seed, but Louisville will be tough to tame at the Yum! Center. DUKE AT NORTH CAROLINA Both teams have been rejuvenated of late — Duke by the return of forward Ryan Kelly and North Carolina by the move to a smaller lineup. Kelly scored 36 points against Miami in his first game back from injury. North Carolina has only lost once since Roy Williams replaced forward Desmond Hubert with guard P.J. Hairston in the starting lineup. The Tar Heels have played their way off the NCAA Tournament bubble and into “lock” status. SUNDAY, MARCH 10 INDIANA AT MICHIGAN Indiana has already wrapped up the No. 1 seed in the upcoming Big Ten Tournament, but plenty is at stake. Indiana is eyeing the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament, while Michigan is still in play for one of the four top seeds. Big Ten Player of the Year honors could be at stake, as well. Indiana’s Victor Oladipo and Michigan’s Trey Burke have one more opportunity to state their cases. ILLINOIS AT OHIO STATE Ohio State has a tough final week, with a trip to Indiana on Tuesday followed by Illinois’ visit to Columbus on Sunday. The Buckeyes will be looking for revenge after losing at Illinois by 19 points in early January. The Illini have played extremely well since losing six of seven during one stretch early in the league season. This team could be a dark horse to win the Big Ten Tournament.

Kentucky women enter SEC tourney with confidence BY GARY GRAVES The Associated Press
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Kentucky came up a game short of repeating as Southeastern Conference regular-season champions. But the seventh-ranked Wildcats are confident they can win the conference tournament. Tennessee ended Kentucky’s one-year reign as regular-season champs, but the Wildcats believe they served notice that they are the tournament favorite with Sunday’s victory
over the Lady Volunteers. The win clinched second place and a first-round bye in the tournament that began Wednesday in Duluth, Ga. Kentucky (25-4, 13-3) faces the Missouri-Vanderbilt winner on Friday. Kentucky’s victory against Tennessee also marked a return to form as they used their depth, and mixed tough defense with balanced offense, to wear down the Lady Volunteers. Believing that game was more indicative of their ability, players are confident of winning the pro-
gram’s first tournament title since 1982. “I think it was a game needed as a team because that helped our confidence,” first team all-conference forward DeNesha Stallworth said. “Just knowing that if we play like that every game and as a team, it should be a great outcome on the scoreboard.” Kentucky’s lone SEC title came in 1982 under coach Terry Hall, who guided the Wildcats to four tournament wins on their home floor including
the final against Tennessee. They didn’t reach the championship again until 2010, the first of back-toback appearances ending with losses to the Lady Vols. Last year’s berth with the school’s first-ever No. 1 seeding ended with a semifinal loss to LSU — which also derailed Kentucky’s regular season title hopes with a victory on Feb. 24 in Baton Rouge. The Wildcats didn’t play badly in that game but struggled to come from behind against a Tigers
squad that shot 53 percent from the field. Kentucky has recovered with a rout of Mississippi and a beating of Tennessee that boosted their morale on many levels. Besides forcing 31 turnovers for 33 points, the Wildcats dominated the inside and shot 9 of 26 (35 percent) from beyond the arc. Most impressive were contributions from Kentucky’s reserves, which outscored Tennessee’s bench 22-11 and actually increased the lead in the first half after coach Mat-
thew Mitchell swapped out his starters. Former starting guard Bria Goss has thrived in seven games as a reserve, scoring five times in double figures. Junior Kastine Evans meanwhile has come in to complement SEC co-player of the year A’dia Mathies and Jennifer O’Neill in the backcourt with a combination of scoring, defense and energy. She had a season-high five assists against the Lady Volunteers and is averaging 7.0 points in seven games since replacing Goss.

Trio of teams looking for gold BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com
Of the five area teams who made it to the state finals, three are going for the gold ball today inside the Mississippi Coliseum. The Biggersville Lions start off the action at 2:30 p.m., looking for a win against the Coldwater Cougars in Class 1A Boys action. The Lions and Coldwater are familiar opponents, having faced off four times in the past two years — twice in the North Half Tournament finals and again in the Class 1A championship round. Coldwater enters as the defending 1A champs after sending the Lions home with a runner-up consolation prize in a 68-55 game. The Cougars (24-3) boast an new starting lineup following the graduation of six seniors, as do the Lions (27-8) who lost seven seniors from the 2011 squad. At 67.6 points per game, the Cougars fall short of the Lions 74 point average — with the Lions having played nine additional games over the season. Senior Marcel Newson leads Coldwater with 15 points per game, while junior Daniel Simmons holds the honor for Biggersville.
New Site looks to defend title The reigning 2A Girls Champs, the New Site Lady Royals, will go for a second straight title against Scott Central at 6:30 p.m. The Lady Royals cashed in their title in 2012 over the Walnut Lady Wildcats in a 56-44 win, and saw only three members leave the team. Loaded with a deep bench, the 30-4 Royals are led by senior Cristy Clark at 13.9 points

Teixeira out 8-10 weeks with wrist injury Yankees adjust to ‘tough loss’ The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Mark Teixeira will to be out at least until early May with a strained right wrist tendon, the latest major injury setback for the New York Yankees. New York general manager Brian Cashman gave the news Wednesday after the Yankees’ were beat 8-2 by the Dominican Republic World Baseball Classic team on Wednesday. “It’s a tough loss,” Cashman said. Teixeira was hurt swinging a bat Tuesday in an indoor cage during pregame warmups with the U.S. WBC team. Initially, Teixeira was expected to be out eight to 10 days, but he was examined by Yankees doctors in New York on Wednesday and a progno-
sis of eight to 10 weeks was given. Cashman, who broke his leg and dislocated his ankle in a skydiving accident Monday, says Teixeira will rest for four weeks before beginning rehabilitation. Teixeira will remain in New York, and not rejoin the team in Florida, to start his recovery program. Cashman does not seem inclined to move Kevin Youkilis from third to first. Youkilis was signed in December to fill in for third baseman Alex Rodriguez, who will be out until at least the All-Star break after left hip surgery in January. “Third base is very difficult,” Cashman said. “First is always easier to fill than third.” Internal options at first include Dan Johnson. Cashman ruled out having designated hitter Travis Hafner playing in the field. “We’ve got three or more
weeks to go with what we have here, as well as evaluating what’s elsewhere,” Cashman said. “So, we’ll just wait and see.” Cashman noted that this is normally not the time of year that big trades are made. It’s the second major injury for the Yankees during spring training this year. Outfielder Curtis Granderson broke his right forearm when he was hit by a pitch Feb. 24. He will also be sidelined until early May. “People get hurt ... get hurt on our team, people get hurt on other teams,” Yankees captain Derek Jeter said. “The good teams find ways to get it done, and that’s what you’re going to have to do.” Jeter is making progress toward playing in his first game since offseason ankle surgery. Although he has not run the bases full speed yet, Jeter went through an intensive defensive session Wednesday.
“I’m getting close,” Jeter said. “I’m headed in the right direction. My ankle feels good. I’ll be in there as soon as I can play. Whenever I’m able to do it, I’ll do it.” Jeter expects to be ready for the regular-season opener April 1 against Boston. “I’m not worried about Derek Jeter at all,” Cashman said. “He’ll be ready when it counts. He’s the least of our concerns.” Granderson has been cleared to increase his workouts and is set to start riding a stationary bike. Granderson said the team medical staff was happy with follow-up Xrays taken on Tuesday. Right-hander Phil Hughes made 25 throws at both 60 and 90 feet during his third level ground throwing session after being sidelined two weeks by an upper back bulging disk. He is scheduled to Please see YANKEES | 13
Ole Miss celebrates senior night with victory BY DAVID BRANDT The Associated Press
OXFORD — Veteran Murphy Holloway looked like a proud dad when talking about his team in the aftermath of Tuesday’s 87-83 victory over Alabama. The fifth-year Rebel was celebrating senior night at Tad Smith Coliseum, but he was more interested in heaping praise on the underclassmen. “We can’t do it without them,” Holloway said. “I’m proud of them. I felt like they played for us.” Junior Marshall Henderson scored a game-high 24 points, sophomore LaDarius White added 17 and the Rebels kept their NCAA at-large hopes alive with a victory over the Tide. Ole Miss led for nearly the entire game — mostly by double digits — until Alabama made a furious late run to
make things interesting. Ole Miss (22-8, 11-6 Southeastern Conference) won eight of nine home games in conference play. The Rebels have one more regular-season game on the road against LSU on Saturday. Henderson bounced back after a terrible shooting performance on Saturday in a loss to Mississippi State. The 6-foot-2 guard made 6 of 13 shots from the field and 9 of 11 free throws. Jarvis Summers added 14 points for Ole Miss. The Rebels were efficient on offense, making 27 of 49 shots (55.1 percent) from the field, 7 of 15 (46.7 percent) from 3-point range and 26 of 35 (74.3 percent) from the free-throw line. They needed all those buckets against an Alabama team that scored a season-high in regulation. “Offensively we’re so much
better in this building,” Ole Miss coach Andy Kennedy said. “Our last three games we’ve had 88, 82 and 87 points (in Tad Smith Coliseum) and that 87 comes against the best defensive team in the SEC.” Alabama (19-11, 11-6) had a huge 41-25 rebounding advantage but allowed Ole Miss to get several easy looks. Trevor Lacey led the Tide with 19 points while Nick Jacobs added 18. “I thought Ole Miss played really good basketball tonight,” Alabama coach Anthony Grant said. “They came out and set the tone on defense early.” Both teams came into the game with NCAA resumes that put them squarely on the bubble. They are also fighting for spots among the top four teams in the SEC, which would guarantee a first-round bye in the league tournament
next week. Ole Miss had lost six out of 10 coming into Tuesday’s game — including that disastrous loss to last-place Mississippi State on Saturday — but played inspired basketball from the opening tip. Guard Nick Williams and forwards Reginald Buckner and Holloway — the team’s three seniors — combined to score 21 points. But it was the younger guys who provided the biggest plays. The Rebels pushed out to an early 24-10 lead on a 3-pointer by freshman Derrick Millinghaus and never relinquished control on the way to a 37-25 halftime advantage. White made 5 of 9 shots from the field and 6 of 6 free throws. He also added four rebounds, two assists and two Please see REBELS | 13
