Undercover investigation nets narcotics arrests BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

An investigation of alleged drug activity on Wick Street led to two arrests on Tuesday. Eddie Porterfield, 53, of 1506 Wick Street, is charged with one count of sale of cocaine, and Ronnie Porterfield, 50, of the same address, is charged

with two counts of sale of cocaine. Alcorn Narcotics Unit Officer Darrell Hopkins said officers received complaints of people going to the residence at 1506 Wick during the day and night, possibly to buy drugs. Over a period of a few months, officers made several

undercover drug purchases from the residents. “We have several suspects that live in the county and city that we will be contacting also as a result of the investigation,” said Hopkins. The two were in custody awaiting bond Wednesday morning.

Alliance seeks new Quad Graphics

building tenent BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

The Alliance continues to market the Quad/Graphics building on South Harper Road with the hope of bringing a new employer to Corinth. The property was long one of the city’s largest employers. For more than 30 years it was a printing facility under the names of Worldcolor Press and Quebecor World. According to Alliance CEO Gary Chandler there are several misconceptions in the community regarding the property. The first misconception is that the building is owned locally — by The Alliance, the city or the county. This is not the case, Chandler explained. The property is still owned by the Wisconsin-based Quad/ Graphics company. The Alliance does market the property, however, along with the Mississippi Development Authority and the Tennessee Valley Authority. The second misconception about the property is that the building’s future is doomed by insurmountable environmental issues. The building has been

City-county animal shelter reaches out to students BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

GLEN — The Corinth-Alcorn Animal Shelter hit the road to get the word out Tuesday. Volunteers Jacinda Byrom and Leslie Boone visited with elementary students at both Glendale Elementary and Rienzi Elementary schools, informing children on the proper ways to care for their pet dog or cat. Three female Lab puppies helped in the informative meetings.

exercise. “Give them plenty of play time and love,” added Byrom. Students were also instructed to carry the animal to the vet should it become sick; make sure the pet has a collar with the name and telephone number of the owner; and always let baby animals remain under their mother’s care for at least eight weeks. Four T-shirts were handed out to students who correctly

“The important thing to know when caring for a pet is how to feed and water the animal,” said Byrom. “Make sure the animal has plenty of both so they will grow up strong.” Byrom also advised the youngsters to follow the guidelines on food packages on how much to feed animals. “You want to check your animal’s water twice a day and make sure it’s clean,” she added. Another important thing stressed by the volunteers was

through phase 1 and 2 environmental assessments, said Chandler, and based on his conversations with the Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality, there are no environmental problems that would prevent the building from being occupied. “It took a while for the process to play themselves out, but what we learned in January is there are no environmental issues present, nothing inside or outside the building, that would prevent a potential tenant from going in and beginning operations,” Chandler said. As far as the state of the building, Chandler said he knows there are issues with the roof that will have to be addressed soon. The last misconception is that no one is interested in the building. In fact, three manufacturers looked at the building in the last months of 2012. One of the main issues that has prevented the building from being occupied is its size — roughly 630,000 square feet.

BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Sheriff Charles Rinehart is proposing a memorial garden near the Alcorn County Justice Center. It would be at the site of three old graves and would include a monument honoring fallen law enforcement officers such as Lane Caldwell and Clyde Null. The sheriff said he does not have the identity of the three individuals buried near the new justice center. They could be Confederate graves or could be individuals

connected to the family that had a farm on the property, he said. “There are three there where you turn in that we fenced off right before we started doing dozer work,” said Rinehart. This week, he asked the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors to consider the idea of a memorial garden. He is suggesting the small area of property be sold to himself or donated to a church, if that can legally be done, in order to make the ownership private. Please see GARDEN | 2

With some new and returning vendors, the fifth season debut of the Green Market is set for Saturday as the event shares top billing with the Crossroads Chili Cook-Off. A warm and sunny spring day is in the forecast, and the Crossroads Museum is anticipating a big crowd for the seasonal launch, which has extended hours of 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the depot museum. “We’re really excited to have the Green Market as a museum event,” said Museum Executive Director Brandy Steen. “I think we have a good lineup of vendors.

GUYS, Tenn. — The personal satisfaction of seeing your hard work featured in two magazines in the same month is clearly evident for a mother-and-daughter that operates a bridal business in Guys. Amber Rinehart and Jessica Dean were surprised and pleased when they recently learned their Techniques Weddings had gotten coverage in two bridal magazines. Mississippi Bride and Delta Magazine are periodicals familiar to anyone interested in weddings and the planning that goes along with the big day. “It meant a great deal to us when we found out the two magazines had featured Techniques Weddings,” said Rinehart. “We took it as a great honor to have pictures about our business in the magazines.” The spring issue of Delta Magazine has on the cover a bouquet created by Techniques for Leslie Little Fisher’s wedding. Wiljax Photographic Design made the picture of the bouquet.

“We work well together and we enjoy working on weddings. It helps to have someone to bounce ideas off of and I feel that helps our brides.” Jessica Dean Techniques Weddings

Dean said that her mother began the business around eight years ago and that she had joined her to make it a true family-oriented business. “We work well together and we enjoy working on weddings,” said Dean. “It helps to have someone to bounce ideas off of and I feel that helps our brides.” The two bridal magazines that featured Techniques’ bridal work was especially helpful because it came in the spring when brides-tobe begin their planning for their wedding day. “It will help us because many people will look at the magazines to get an idea of what they want in their wedding,” said Rinehart. “I know

it makes you feel better when you know someone else appreciates your work.” Rinehart got into the bridal business when a friend asked her to decorate for her child’s wedding and it has bloomed into a growing business. She operates Techniques beauty shop as her fulltime business. “I’ve learned from my mother about how to decorate and I enjoy trying to make each wedding perfect,” Dean said. “This is not easy work, but we really enjoy working weddings.” The part-time job keeps them busy on the weekends during the spring and summer when many brides choose to have their special day.

Parent charged in assault on school teacher

Today in history Today is Thursday, April 4, the 94th day of 2013. There are 271 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On April 4, 1968, civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr., 39, was shot to death as he stood on a balcony of the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tenn. (James Earl Ray later pleaded guilty to assassinating King, then spent the rest of his life claiming he’d been the victim of a setup.)

On this date: In 1818, Congress decided the flag of the United States would consist of 13 red and white stripes and 20 stars, with a new star to be added for every new state of the Union. In 1841, President William Henry Harrison succumbed to pneumonia one month after his inaugural, becoming the first U.S. chief executive to die in office. In 1850, the city of Los Angeles was incorporated. In 1859, “Dixie” was performed publicly for the first time by Bryant’s Minstrels at Mechanics’ Hall in New York. In 1912, China proclaimed a republic in Tibet, a move fiercely opposed by Tibetans. In 1933, the Navy airship USS Akron crashed in severe weather off the New Jersey coast with the loss of 73 lives. In 1949, 12 nations, including the United States, signed the North Atlantic Treaty in Washington, D.C. In 1960, Elvis Presley recorded “Are You Lonesome Tonight?” in Nashville for RCA Victor. In 1973, the twin towers of New York’s World Trade Center were officially dedicated. (The towers were destroyed in the terrorist attack of Sept. 11, 2001.) In 1975, more than 130 people, most of them children, were killed when a U.S. Air Force transport plane evacuating Vietnamese orphans crash-landed shortly after takeoff from Saigon. In 1983, the space shuttle Challenger roared into orbit on its maiden voyage. (It was destroyed in the disaster of January 1986.) In 1988, the Arizona Senate convicted Gov. Evan Mecham of two charges of official misconduct, and removed him from office. (Mecham was the first U.S. governor to be impeached and removed from office in nearly six decades.)

Ten years ago: U.S. forces seized Saddam International Airport outside Baghdad.

A Booneville woman has been charged with simple assault on a teacher following a disturbance at a school in Prentiss County. Angela Nunley, 35, of Booneville, is facing the felony charge, said Prentiss County Sheriff Randy Tolar. The Prentiss County Sheriff’s Department received a 911 call about a disturbance at Hills Chapel School on March 22 at 12:45 p.m., he said. “When deputies arrived they determined

that a teacher had been physically assaulted by a parent,” Tolar said. “Simple assault on school personnel is a felony crime and carries up to five years in the prison.” He said Nunley had an initial appearance before Justice Court Judge Debra Moore and was given a $5,000 bond. Nunley is currently free on bond. The teacher was treated and released at a local hospital. Nunley’s case will be presented to the next Prentiss County grand jury.

Not guilty plea entered in library threat case BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

A New Site man accused of threatening a mass killing at the George E. Allen Library has pleaded not guilty in federal court. Robert Scott Goodin was indicted March 20 in U.S. District Court on a single count of transmitting threats in interstate commerce. He waived an arraingment hearing and entered a plea of not guilty to the charge and he remains in federal custody. Goodin is accused of making threats against the library in chats with a library employee through the popular social networking website Facebook during a period from November 2012 to Jan. 2013. He alleg-

edly told the employee he was battling a desire to kill multiple employees and patrons at the library. The suspect told an FBI agent investigating the threats he believed he has a demon inside him encouraging him to kill and he was unsure how much longer he could hold out. According to an affidavit filed by the FBI agent in the case, Goodin said if he decided to kill he would use knives and swords in his attack instead of guns. A trial for Goodin has been set for Monday, May 13 in U.S. District Court in Oxford. He faces up to five years in federal prison, a fine of up to $250,000 and three years probation if convicted.

Guns save lives

We all know that guns can cost lives because the media repeat this message endlessly, as if we could not figure it out for ourselves. But even someone who reads newspapers regularly and watches numerous television newscasts may never learn that guns also save lives — much less see any hard facts comparing how many lives are lost and how many are saved. But that trade-off is the real Thomas issue, not the Second AmendSowell ment or the National Rifle Association, which so many in Columnist the media obsess about. If guns cost more lives than they save, we can always repeal the Second Amendment. But if guns save more lives than they cost, we need to know that, instead of spending time demonizing the National Rifle Association. The defensive use of guns is usually either not discussed at all in the media or is depicted as if it means bullets flying in all directions. But most defensive uses of guns do not involve actually pulling the trigger. If someone comes at you with a knife and you point a gun at him, he is very unlikely to keep coming, and far more likely to head in the other direction, perhaps in some haste, if he has a brain in his head. Only if he is an idiot are you likely to have to pull the trigger. And if he is an idiot with a knife coming after you, you had better have a trigger to pull. Surveys of American gun owners have found that 4 to 6 percent reported using a gun in selfdefense within the past five years. That is not a very high percentage but, in a country with 300 million people, that works out to hundreds of thousands of defensive uses per year. Yet we almost never hear about these hundreds of thousands of defensive uses of guns from the media, which will report the killing of a dozen people endlessly around the clock. The murder of a dozen innocent people is unquestionably a human tragedy. But that is no excuse for reacting blindly by preventing hundreds of thousands of other people from defending themselves against meeting the same fate. Although most defensive uses of guns do not involve actually shooting, nevertheless the total number of criminals killed by armed private citizens runs into the thousands per year. A gun can also come in handy if a pit bull or some other dangerous animal is after you or your child. We need to recognize the painful reality that, regardless of what we do or don’t do about gun control laws, there will be innocent people killed by guns. We can then look at hard facts in order to decide how we can minimize the number of needless deaths. But that is not the way the issue is presented by many in politics or the media. Every story about an accidental shooting in the home will be repeated again and again, while a thousand stories about lives saved by defensive uses of a gun will never see the light of day in most newspapers or on most television newscasts. More children may die in bathtub accidents than in shooting accidents, but you are not likely to read that in most newspapers or see it on television newscasts. Some in the media inflate the number of children killed by counting as children the members of criminal teenage gangs who shoot each other in their turf fights. Many seize upon statistics that show Britain has stronger gun control laws than the U.S. and lower murder rates. Yet they ignore other countries with stronger gun control laws than the U.S., but which have much higher murder rates, such as Brazil, Russia and Mexico. Even in the case of Britain, London had a much lower murder rate than New York during the years after New York State’s 1911 Sullivan Law imposed very strict gun control, while anyone could buy a shotgun in London with no questions asked in the 1950s. Today, virtually the entire law-abiding population of Britain is disarmed — and gun crimes are vastly more common. Gun control laws make crime a safer occupation when victims are unarmed. The gun control crusade today is like the Prohibition crusade 100 years ago. It is a shared zealotry that binds the self-righteous know-it-alls in a warm fellowship of those who see themselves as fighting against the forces of evil. It is a lofty role that they are not about to give up for anything so mundane as facts — or even the lives of other people. (Daily Corinthian columnist Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305. His website is www.tsowell.com.)

Prayer for today Father, thank you for allowing us to walk in the resurrected power of Jesus Christ who gives us power to take our stand against the enemy and to stand up for righteousness and truth. Amen.

A verse to share Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. — Matthew 11:29

Education reform still a marathon, not a sprint Gov. Phil Bryant this week celebrated the legislative passage of much of his “Education Works” agenda. House Speaker Phillip Gunn and Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves both touted passage of a charter schools bill with Bryant’s pledge to sign it. The 2013 legislative session will be remembered as a session in which the Republican leadership that dominates state government made K-12 public education a priority. Despite histrionic arguments from the state’s K-12 education lobby over the GOP leadership’s priorities, level of funding and methodologies, Bryant, Reeves and Gunn and their Republican legislative majorities spent an inordinate amount of time talking about K-12 education in 2013 and got their reforms enacted. Looking back to the days when Mississippi Democrats dominated state government to the same degree that the GOP does today – and let’s face it, that involves over a century of political domination and policy responsibility – the conclusion is inescapable that the race for educa-

tion reform in Mississippi is a marathon rather than a sprint. It was true for Sid Salter the Dems, it will be true Columnist for the GOP. In a state plagued with Mississippi’s long history of low educational attainment and withering poverty, there are no quick fixes. Thank goodness charter schools are now a tool in the toolbox for improving public education in Mississippi after a long, hard political battle. Thank goodness that Mississippi is finally putting a toe in the waters of statefunded pre-kindergarten programs. Thank goodness that Mississippi is finally beginning to address the self-defeating practice of social promotion even when the student is lacking in the most basic of skills. But charter schools won’t prove a panacea. Neither will “third-grade gates.” Like the Democrat-led reforms that preceded them, the 2013 GOP-led education reforms are part of a

long-term solution that will require vigilance, innovation and money. Now over 30 years in the rear-view mirror, the Mississippi Education Reform Act of 1982 remains a watershed in the state’s history and a dividing line between the state’s old politics and the state’s new political order that continues to evolve. The 1982 education reforms brought kindergartens to all the state’s school districts, mandated compulsory school attendance, established the first school accreditation system that contained an accountability component, put teacher aides in the classrooms in the first three grades and provided $110 million in tax revenue to fund those endeavors. In succeeding years, new state education reforms came in the guise of the Education Enhancement Fund (EEF) and Mississippi Adequate Education Program (MAEP). The EEF was designed to provide funds for school buses, instructional supplies and to offset the ad valorem tax requests from their local taxing authorities. MAEP was designed to

address the thorny question of equity funding in public education – meaning that children in poor counties like Quitman or Coahoma were receiving the same quality of educational opportunity as the children in affluent DeSoto or Rankin counties were getting. While adequate in theory, MAEP has yet to be given a credible chance to work as intended because of lawmakers have only “fully funded” MAEP on two occasions since it took full legal effect in 2002 – both times in election years in 2003 and 2007. All those reforms combat a common theme – how to makes schools more effective, equitable and accountable in the poorest state in the union when many of the parents responsible for sending children to school ready to learn are uneducated or under-educated themselves. That’s a non-partisan problem that begs for a non-partisan solution. (Daily Corinthian and syndicated columnist Sid Salter can be contacted at 601-507-8004 or sidsalter@sidsalter.com.)

Can the Republican Party dig out of its hole? BY ROGER SIMON There are two Rules of Holes in politics. The first rule is well known: “When you find yourself in a hole, stop digging.” The second rule is less well known: “When you stop digging, you are still in a hole.” The Republican Party is now struggling with both rules when it comes to immigration. The GOP would not even be considering immigration reform this year if the election of 2012 had not been so psychologically shattering to it. Mitt Romney’s loss has sent the party reeling. You could come up with many reasons for the loss — a weak candidate chosen from a weak field, Romney’s “47 percent” gaffe (which was not really a gaffe, but what he truly believed) and a second-rate get-out-thevote effort are at the top of my list. But Romney found his own scapegoat: minorities. As Romney told fundraisers and donors shortly after Election Day 2012, Barack Obama had followed the “old playbook” of seeking votes from specific interest groups “especially the African-American community, the Hispanic community

and young people.” In each case, Romney said, the Obama people “were very generous in what they gave to those groups.” Obama, in Romney’s view, had won re-election by political bribery, pure and simple. So maybe the Republicans could try some bribery of their own. Not with African-Americans. That would never work. And the young looked almost as unreachable. But Hispanics! They were a prize worth going after. They are the fastest-growing minority group in America, holding 16 percent of the population. Of even greater interest to pols, the number of Hispanics registered to vote has increased by 26 percent in the last four years and numbered 12.2 million in the last election. Romney got only 27 percent of the Hispanic vote in 2012, compared with John McCain’s 31 percent in 2008 and George W. Bush’s 44 percent in 2004. So clearly, the Republicans had to stop digging the hole. And the way to do it was comprehensive immigration reform. Instead of opposing it, as many Republicans had done in the past, they now would embrace it. But there is a huge danger. If you grant a pathway

to citizenship for the 11 million Hispanics who entered this country illegally, you are probably going to enfranchise millions of new Democratic voters. So the Republicans want immigration reform, but they want it to take place very, very slowly. This is so Republicans can win over Hispanics on social issues — opposition to abortion and same-sex marriage, for example — a process that could take several years. That’s why Republicans want the pathway to citizenship to be long and bumpy. First, there will be a 10year probationary period, in which the probationers will have to pay fines and any back taxes, learn English, be fingerprinted and clear criminal background checks. Then they will have to get a green card, after which a person typically has to wait five years before applying for citizenship. So we may be talking about a 15-year trip down citizenship lane. Or longer. The Republicans are talking about “triggers,” which means there would be no path to citizenship unless certain goals are achieved. One trigger might be a 100 percent apprehension rate on the border with Mexico, meaning everybody trying to cross illegally into

the United States would have to be caught. A White House source told me such a trigger would be a “nonstarter” with Democrats. So there may be less of an immigration deal in existence than current headlines would have us believe. Not only are Republicans still thrashing out the issue, but a source told me that Democrats in the Senate are far from having the 60 votes necessary for a filibuster-proof bill. And nobody knows what the even more chaotic House will come up with. So immigration reform is not just around the corner. Yet it is probably inevitable. “There is no salvation for the Republican Party except for backing a path to citizenship for the 11 million,” a source close to the immigration negotiations told me. “The Republican demographic of older, white voters is shrinking, and they are losing the growing demographic of younger, nonwhite voters.” The Republicans are not yet ready to climb out of their hole. They just have to stop digging it deeper. (Daily Corinthian columnist Roger Simon is chief political columnist of politico.com, an award-winning journalist and a New York Times best selling author.)

Obama to press for gun measures WASHINGTON â€” In danger of losing congressional momentum, President Barack Obama is drawing attention to Coloradoâ€™s newly passed gun control laws as he applies public pressure on Congress to pass similar federal measures. Obama was visiting Denver Wednesday, stepping up his call for universal background checks for gun buyers as well as his demands for Congress to at least vote on an assault weapons ban and limits on largecapacity ammunition magazines. The trip is heavy with political symbolism. Colorado expanded background checks and placed restrictions on magazines despite being a state with a deeprooted hunting tradition, where gun ownership is a cherished right. Moreover, Obama will meet with law enforcement officials and community leaders at the Denver Police Academy, not far from the Aurora suburb where a gunman last summer killed 12 people in a movie theater. The presidentâ€™s trip is occurring in the same week that prosecutors announced they would seek the death penalty for James Holmes, accused of carrying out the Aurora rampage. Among those participating in the Denver discussion with Obama was Sandy Phillips, the mother of 24-year-old Jessica Redfield Ghawi, who died in the Aurora shooting. She conceded that gun control is a difficult issue, and said she has spoken to numerous lawmakers in Washington who â€œwant to do the right thing without it costing their jobs.â€? She said she is counting on Obama to press the issue. â€œWe need to have universal background checks for every sale, thatâ€™s a minimum,â€? she said in an interview ahead of Obamaâ€™s appearance. â€œI hope he keeps pushing for the assault weapons ban and I hope he keeps pushing for magazine restrictions.â€? With Congress due to return to Washington after a two-week Easter break, Obama has been scheduling high-profile

events on gun legislation to push lawmakers and sustain a drive for some kind of action aimed at curbing gun violence more than three months after the massacre at a Newtown, Conn., elementary school. Last week Obama called for legislation while flanked by 21 mothers who lost children to gun violence. â€œI havenâ€™t forgotten those kids,â€? he declared then. On Monday, just before the planned start of the Senateâ€™s debate on gun legislation, Obama is scheduled to go to Hartford, Conn., where state lawmakers have announced a bipartisan agreement on gun legislation in response to the shootings at Newtownâ€™s Sandy Hook Elementary School, which took the lives of 20 first-graders and six adult staff. â€œIf it were simple to pass measures through Congress that are very common sense but would reduce gun violence in America, those measures would have passed already,â€? White House spokesman Jay Carney said Tuesday. â€œAnd the president has always recognized that this is something that would be a challenge.â€? In selecting Colorado, Obama is showcasing a state with a long centrist tradition that prizes its Western frontier heritage. But an influx of young coastal transplants and growing Hispanic voter clout have helped Democrats win a string of victories in the state. Even before the Sandy Hook massacre energized gun control proponents, Democratic Gov. John Hickenlooper said he was open to new gun control measures in the state. Colorado Republicans fought the new legislation, contending that Democrats overreached and will be punished by the voters in November. Several county sheriffs have vowed not to enforce the new gun restrictions. Democrats contend that the measures are generally popular, especially among the suburban women who decide Colorado elections.

bombers, then stealth fighters, then ships â€“ is as much about psychological war as real war. The U.S. wants to discourage North Koreaâ€™s young leader from starting a fight that could escalate to renewed war with South Korea. Worries in Washington rose Tuesday with North Koreaâ€™s vow to increase production of nuclear weapons materials. Secretary of State John Kerry called the announced plan â€œunacceptableâ€? and stressed that the U.S. is ready to defend itself and its allies. But he and other U.S. officials also sought to lower the rhetorical temperature by holding out the prospect of the Northâ€™s reversing course and resuming nuclear negotiations. At a joint news conference with visiting South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se, Kerry said the U.S. would proceed â€œthoughtfully and carefullyâ€? and in consultation with South Korea, Japan, China and others. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, in a call late Tuesday to Chinaâ€™s defense minister, called the Northâ€™s development of nuclear weapons a â€œgrowing threatâ€? to the U.S. and its allies. Hagel, citing North Koreaâ€™s pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles in his phone conversation with Chang Wanquan, said Washington and Beijing should continue to cooperate on those problems, according to a Pentagon statement describing the call. Michael Green, an Asia specialist at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said it should be no surprise that North Korea is vowing to restart a long-dormant nuclear reactor and ramp up production of atomic weapons material. â€œThis is part of their protection racket,â€? Green said in an interview. â€œI think the end state North Korea would like is that we, the U.S. in particular, but also China, Japan, South Korea, are so rattled by all this that we decide itâ€™s just better to cut a deal with them.â€?

Senate gives final OK to charter schools JACKSON â€” After two years of struggle, a bill to make it easier to create charter schools is on its way to Gov. Phil Bryant. The State Senate voted 34-18 Wednesday to approve House Bill 369, which widens legal authority for charter schools. Senate Education Committee Chairman Gray Tollison, an Oxford Republican, says he had hoped to preserve more elements of the Senate proposal in a compromise with the House. But he said senators decided to adopt the House bill rather than risk failure for a second straight year. House members approved the bill Tuesday. Bryant, a Republican, says heâ€™ll sign it. Boards in districts graded A, B and C would get vetoes over charter schools in their boundaries. Students couldnâ€™t cross district lines to attend a charter school in another district.

Barbour portrait unveiled at Capitol JACKSON â€” Officials on Wednesday unveiled a portrait of former Gov. Haley Barbour, which will hang on the first floor of the Mississippi Capitol. The painting is by Greg Cartmell, an artist from Meridian, Miss. Republican Barbour was governor from January 2004 to January 2012. The portrait depicts him in front of a painting of a Gulf Coast lighthouse, which recognizes that he served during and after Hurricane Katrina. It also includes a likeness of one of Barbourâ€™s ancestors, Walter Leake, who was Mississippi governor from 1822 to 1825. The Capitol now has portraits of all the former governors except Democrat Bill Allain, who served from January 1984 to January 1988. Allain has chosen not to have one painted.

County judge to explain why no ruling has been issued on a post-conviction petition filed by Manning in a case involving the deaths of two women. An Oktibbeha County judge has since told the court he will have a ruling by June 28. Manning was convicted in 1996 for the killings of Emmoline Jimmerson, 90, and Alberta Jordan in Starkville. The women were beaten and their throats slashed during a robbery attempt in 1993 at the Brookville Gardens apartments. The Supreme Court upheld his two death sentences in 2000. Manningâ€™s attorney said Monday that resetting an execution date would thwart the Supreme Courtâ€™s desire to have that case brought to a close. Manning said the key issue to be addressed in the 1993 case is that a witness has recanted. Kevin Lucious, according to court records, testified that he saw Manning force his way into the womenâ€™s apartment. Lucious said he was looking out the window of his apartment at the time. Then at a hearing in Oktibbeha County in January 2011, Lucious recanted that testimony, saying he didnâ€™t live in the apartment at the time of the womenâ€™s death. Manning, in his brief to the Supreme Court, said Luciousâ€™ testimony was corroborated by police department records not given to Manningâ€™s trial attorney. He said prosecutors also did not disclose the police records. â€œA finding by the circuit court that Manningâ€™s conviction in the Brooksville Gardens case was procured on the basis of false testimony would also be relevant to the Please see STATE | 6

arguments to make, meaning now is not the time to be setting an execution date sought by the attorney generalâ€™s office. Manning was recently denied an appeal by the U.S. Supreme Court in the deaths of two college students. The attorney generalâ€™s office asked the Mississippi court to schedule the execution for April 24. In a brief filed Monday, Manningâ€™s attorney said there are issues pending before the state high court. Manning is seeking a new trial, arguing that a jailhouse informant had recanted his testimony; that Manningâ€™s trial attorney was ineffective; and that blacks were improperly kept off his trial jury. Manning also said there was a chance Gov. Phil Bryant would grant him clemency. Manning, now 44, received two death sentences for the 1992 slayings of two Mississippi State University students, Jon Steckler and Tiffany Miller. On Dec. 11, 1992, the bodies of Miller and Steckler were discovered in rural Oktibbeha County. Both students had been shot to death, and Millerâ€™s car was missing. The vehicle was found the next morning. Prosecutors said Manning was arrested after he attempted to sell certain items belonging to the victims. Manning contends three prosecution witnesses lied in their testimony because â€œthey were given reward money and-or because their own criminal charges were dismissed or drastically reduced.â€? Manning also points to a second capital murder case where he has motions pending. In February, the Mississippi Supreme Court asked an Oktibbeha

Judge dismisses capital murder charge GREENWOOD — A judge has dismissed a charge of capital murder against Greenwood Dr. Arnold Smith, who is charged in arranging an attack on a local attorney. The Greenwood Commonwealth reports that Circuit Judge Breland Hilburn decided at a Tuesday hearing that prosecutors’ indictment of Smith does not support a capital murder charge. Hilburn ruled prosecutors can pursue the lesser charge of depraved heart murder, one that describes an action so careless and callous as to result in the ending of a person’s life.

Hilburn also rescheduled Smith’s trial for May 20. The 71-year-old Smith is charged with murder as the alleged instigator of a plot that ended with the death of gunman Keaira Byrd and the wounding Derrick Lacy. Byrd allegedly had been hired to kill attorney Lee Abraham, who represented Smith’s ex-wife in their divorce years ago. Abraham was not injured in the incident in April of 2012. Smith has also been charged with two counts of conspiring to murder Abraham. Smith has been held without bail since his arrest. Authorities said Byrd died from a gunshot to the head, fired by an unnamed investigator from the attorney general’s office. Abraham had contacted the attorney general’s office. Hilburn has ordered a separate trial for Lacy, set for April 22. Lacy is charged with capital murder in Byrd’s death and conspiring with Smith to kill Abraham.

Temptation’s lure can ignore strong values Tyler Perry’s Temptation, PG-13, **, Jurnee Smolett-Bell, Lance Gross, Kim Kardashian, Ella Joyce; Lionsgate film; Director Tyler Perry; length — 111 minutes “Tyler Perry’s Temptation” opens with a marriage counselor trying to help Terry a young Burns couple get back on Movie Critic track (we return to the session toward the end of the movie). Warning: Look out for plenty of metaphors.

In the song, “The Snake,” by Al Wilson, there are these lyrics: “Take me in tender woman take me in sighed the snake.” And then after trusting the snake the woman is bitten by the snake. The snake reminds the woman of his true colors by stating, “You knew I was a snake before you took me in.” The lyrics from this golden oldie say it all about this movie. Childhood sweethearts Judith (Jurnee SmollettBell) and Brice (Lance Gross) grew up in the South. They married and moved north to Washington D.C. We all know the honesty and integrity

that goes on in D.C. Yeah right. Judith is feisty and Brice is quiet with very little aggressiveness until he is pushed to the limit. Judith works toward being a marriage counselor and Brice starts a small pharmacy business. He is happy and content with marriage and work. Judith, however, has a tendency toward the wild side of life. Her mother (Ella Joyce), a preacher, helps keep her on the straight and narrow. Silver-tongue devil Harley Rich (Robbie Jones) arrives at Judith’s dating service and begins to sweet talk her with his money and success. Ba-

sically, the story is about the rich, the famous, and enticing the weak. A business trip to New Orleans changes Judith’s lifestyle. As she changes, we want her to stop the course she is on, and get her mind straight. The dialogue in “Temptation” is lame and the story needed a supercharged script. Some of the conversations are so weak; the audience becomes bored. There is a back story about religion and church attendance, and how sometimes rebellion takes place within a person. After the initial excitement of her new life, Judith must face the con-

Should you experience pain, please consult JuJuana Meeks, OT, CHT, at 662-287-1400 or your physician. Hold each stretch for 10 seconds and

repeat eight times. ■ Fold your hands together and turn your palms away from your body as you extend your arms forward. You should feel a stretch all the way from your shoulders to your fingers. ■ Fold your hands together and turn your palms away from your body, but this time extend your arms overhead. You should feel them stretch in your up-

per torso and shoulders to hand. ■ Place your hand just above the back of the elbow and gently pull your elbow across your chest toward the opposite shoulder. This is a stretch for the shoulder and upper back. Stretch both the right and left arms. ■ Raise one arm overhead. Bend the elbow. Place the opposite hand on

the bent elbow and gently push elbow back further. This is a stretch for the triceps. Stretch both arms. ■ Extend an arm in front of you, making sure the elbow is completely straight. With your palm down, take the opposite hand and bend in the wrist downward. Then turn the palm up, and stretch the wrist backwards. This stretches the forearm and wrist muscles.

since its last peak on Oct. 9, 2007

Five of the 10 best stocks are consumer companies, while another three are in the health care sector. Many of them help people save money. Netflix helps subscribers cut back or cut out their cable bills, for example, and Perrigo makes cheaper, store-brand pharmaceuticals.

The financial sector has been the worst in the S&P 500 since 2007, down 50 percent. The lone consumer stock among the 10 worst individual stocks is J.C. Penney, whose strategy to use everyday low prices backfired. Sales tumbled after customers said they preferred sales events and coupons.
