T-I-C-K-E-T-S still available for Tritt concert

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

T-Time is a day away.

Travis Tritt opens the concert season for the Crossroads Arena Friday at 7 p.m.

The Grammy winning singer and songwriter was one of leading country singers in the 1990s and is set to release his first single in six years on Father’s Day. “We have heard from other markets he has performed that it is hands down a great show,” said Arena General Manager Tammy Genovese. “He has some great songs and we think

it will be a fun event.”

Tickets are still available for Friday’s show. Floor seating is $38 and general admission riser seating is $28.

Tritt Jamie Davis & Soul Gravy will open for Tritt. The Mississippi musicians travel the roads from Natchez to Nashville entertaining crowns

with original music and a rock and roll show, according to the band’s website.

Seven of Tritt’s albums are certified platinum or higher by the Recording Industry Association of America. His 1991 album It’s All About to Change is the highest certified at tripleplatinum and leads off with one of his popular songs “Here’s a Quarter (Call Someone Who Cares)” which rose to No. 2 in the United States and Canada.

His new single – “Sometimes Love Just Ain’t Enough” – is a duet remake of Patty Smyth

and Don Henley done with his 15-year-old daughter, Tyler Reese. Originally recorded for his 2007 album The Storm, the track was shelved when a suitable duet partner could not be secured in time for the album’s release.

Tritt is back doing shows with his band following a year of doing solo-acoustic performances.

The two-time Grammy Award winner’s debut album, Country Club contained top hits such as “Help Me Hold On” and “I’m Gonna Be Somebody” as

the artist held his own against some of the top country singers of the 90s in Garth Brooks, Clint Black and Alan Jackson.

T-R-O-U-B-L-E — his third album — was released in 1992 with the Mo. 1 single “Can I Trust You with My Heart” going gold.

A fourth album, Ten Feet Tall and Bulletproof, spawned the No. 1 single “Foolish Pride” in 1994.

Tickets can be purchased by calling the box office at 662287-7779 Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Plumrose USA: Booneville plant lays off 100-plus

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

Plumrose USA has announced the layoff of approximately one-quarter of the workers at its Booneville plant.

The manufacturer of sliced deli meats informed employees of the decision last Friday.

Chief Operating Officer Mike Rozzano said just over 100 employees were notified they would be laid off. The Booneville facility previously employed approximately 420 workers and the layoff drops that figure to approximately 320.

Rozzano said the company understands the seriousness of the decision and remains committed to its operations in Booneville.

“Our business dictated we didn’t need as many people in the plant as were currently working there,” he said.

He said the decision came after serious study and consideration.

“We don’t do this lightly and we know we’re affecting people’s lives,” he said.

Plumrose remains committed to Booneville and Rozzano said the decision should not be interpreted as a sign they have any intention of shuttering the facility.

“This is not a signal we’re

Shiloh Ridge pool going kid friendly

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Shiloh Ridge Athletic Club is making a splash.

Members of the athletic club soon will be too.

Shiloh Ridge is close to finishing some improvements on its pool area and will be unveiling the upgrades on May 25.

“We are trying to be the best community service we can be,” said owner Carroll Little. “The upgrades we are making will make the pool the nicest facility in Northeast Mississippi.”

Little said a baby pool and splash pad combination will be completed Memorial Day weekend. The club’s pool is also getting a new edition with the installation of a water-park type slide.

“This isn’t your normal slide,” said the owner. “It’s a corkscrew type of slide that is about 20-feet tall.”

“The pool is going to be more kid friendly,” added Little’s daughter, Sarah. “There will be a lot more activity around the area.”

The changes are part of Little’s effort to supply something for the entire family once it joins the athletic club.

“Our vision for Shiloh Ridge is to make it a nice community place and a one-stop fun place for the whole family,” he said.

“We want to offer the best for our members.”

going to be closing the plant, quite the opposite,” he said.

Prentiss County Development Association Executive Director Leon Hays said the organization is saddened by the decision and hopeful the move will prove to be temporary as economic conditions improve.

“Plumrose for over 50 years, has been an important part of our community. None more important than when during the heart of the recession, production levels at the Booneville facility were very high, resulting in many seven-day work weeks. But, with the opening of a new facility in Iowa and limited sales growth, conditions have changed. The news of this layoff is a difficult blow to our area and PCDA’s thoughts are with the families affected by this action. PCDA will continue to offer its services to Plumrose to help ensure that they remain a part of our community for another 50 years. I was pleased to hear of the company’s commitment to continue to have operations in Booneville and that no further layoffs are planned. It is our hope that the company will see increased sales and improve efficiencies at this facility making this reduction in employment levels only temporary,” said Hays.

Saturday was a bountiful day for the AMEN Food Pantry.

With the help of local residents, the Corinth Post Office participated in the annual Stamp Out Hunger food drive, which experienced booming growth this year, gathering three times as much food as last year.

Residents participated by leaving a bag of food by the mailbox.

The result reached about 13,000 pounds of food, rising from around 4,500 pounds last year, according to mail carrier Buddy Shumaker.

Budgeter: Medicaid growth damages education funding Associated Press

JACKSON — Funding for education is falling short because Medicaid is devouring a larger share of state money than it did a few years ago, a top Mississippi budget writer says in a letter to teachers and school administrators.

House Appropriations Committee Chairman Herb Frierson, R-Poplarville, wrote that expanding Medicaid would create more uncertainty about funding for all levels of education, from kindergarten through universities.

“Do you think we should expand the Medicaid program knowing how it may cost the educational community?”

Frierson wrote. “Can the educational institutions afford not to take a position on the expansion of the Medicaid program?”

But a Democrat who used to be a budget writer disputes the premise of Frierson’s letter. Rep. Cecil Brown, of Jackson, said in an interview Wednesday that money for education has fallen short because of many financial choices, including giving tax breaks to corporations and setting aside hundreds of millions of dollars to rebuild the state’s financial reserves.

“Education hasn’t been funded because there hasn’t been a willingness to fund it,” Brown said, criticizing Republican leaders, including former two-term Gov. Haley Barbour, who left office in January 2012.

Brown was chairman of the House Education Committee and served on the Joint Legislative Budget Committee until last year, when Republicans gained control of the House. The GOP had already controlled the Senate for years.

Many Democrats in the Legislature want to expand Medicaid, a federal-state health in-

Stamp Out Hunger is a nationwide effort sponsored each year by

banks, soup kitchens and shelters.

State college board teams with minority biz site Associated Press

JACKSON — The state College Board announced an initiative Wednesday to partner with a website that promotes minority businesses.

The website, Where2Go411.com, connects minority-owned businesses with buyers online. The College Board is encouraging more Mississippi businesses to use the website so universities can easily find them when searching for potential vendors.

The initiative was launched at Jackson State University. All eight of the state’s public universities will participate in training sessions at vendor fairs to introduce local businesses to the website.

“This is part of the

tance to minority business initiatives.

“When you’re working with the rank-and-file purchasing agents or directors of administration, they often fall into the trap of doing business the way they’ve always done it in the past,” Horhn said. “It’s comfortable, they’ve got a system and that system appears to work for them.”

Horhn said he’s glad the College Board is getting involved with promoting minority businesses.

“We have to quit talking about this,” he said.

“Everyone pays lip service, but very few entities are actually doing it because it requires change and it requires making a commitment to bring about the change and seeing it through your people who are responsible for the day to day activities.”

Kathy Times, co-founder of Where2Go411.com, said it is important to focus on driving the state economy.

“We’re hoping this will certainly become a model that other states will use,” Times said.

Minority enterprises will post information about their businesses and the goods and services they provide on the site.

Universities will send and receive quotes, proposals, and subcontracting opportunities through the online system Bounds said the ability to use the website to request quotes and track the outcome, including when a vendor does or does not submit a proposal and whether the vendor receives the bid, will save the universities time and effort.

“It will also provide data for future decision-making,” Bounds said.

surance program for the needy, aged, blind and disabled and for low-income families with children. Under the health law that President Barack Obama signed in 2010, states have the option of expanding Medicaid coverage to people making 138 percent of the federal poverty level, or about $15,000 for one person. In Mississippi now, the income cutoff for Medicaid eligibility is about $5,500 for one person, though the program still does not cover many able-bodied adults who fall below that limit.

Many Republicans, including Gov. Phil Bryant, say Mississippi can’t afford the expansion, even with the federal government paying most of the cost. The law says the federal government will pay 100 percent of medical expenses for the newly qualified Medicaid enrollees from 2014 to 2017. The federal share would be reduced to 90 percent by 2020, with each state paying the balance.

Bryant has said he doesn’t believe the federal government will fulfill its promises for Medicaid funding. And Frierson’s letter takes aim at two key groups that traditionally support Democrats — those who advocate more spending for education and those who want a larger public safety net for health care.

The Mississippi Adequate Education Program is a complex funding formula for elementary and secondary schools. It was put into law in 1997 and phased in over several years. The formula has been fully funded only twice, during the electionyear legislative sessions of 2003 and 2007.

Mississippi’s population is about 3 million.

More than 640,000 people are enrolled in Medicaid, and expansion could add an estimated 300,000.

Today’s Highlight in History: On May 16, 1943, the nearly month-long Warsaw Ghetto Uprising came to an end as German forces crushed the Jewish resistance and blew up the Great Synagogue. An estimated 7,000 Jews were killed during the uprising, while about 7,000 others were summarily executed.

The remaining Jews, more than 40,000 of them, were deported to concentration camps.

Questions raised over Bonneville’s Democratic primary

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

Booneville’s Republican party has raised concerns about the validity of last week’s Democratic primary election.

In a letter dated last Tuesday, the day of the election, and received by the city the following day, Municipal Republican Executive Committee Chairman Jerry Hutcheson informed the city the party is con-

cerned about whether the primary held Tuesday is valid.

The letter states they believe there was no Municipal Democratic Executive Committee in place on March 8, the final day for candidates to qualify to run in the election and the city had not received any statement in writing that the Prentiss County Democratic Executive Committee would act as a temporary municipal executive

committee due to that fact.

Hutcheson said this week the intention of the letter was simply to inform the city of a possible problem.

“We wanted to let them know there was a potential issue,” he said.

The Republican chairperson said it’s not his role to decide what happens next or how to fix the issue if it exists.

Attorney Tommy Cadle, acting as counsel

certified. He states the members of the county Democratic executive committee served only in an advisory capacity during the election and were not acting in the place of the municipal Democratic executive committee.

No official protest regarding the election has been filed in court and the primary runoff election scheduled for next Tuesday is not affected by the letter of concern.

County commissioners fail to approve new wheel tax

BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

SELMER, Tenn. — Two votes shy of passing a proposed $50 wheel tax has left the McNairy County Board of Commissioners searching for ways to fund the upcoming budget year.

County officials had hoped the wheel tax would pass and generate almost $1 million in new revenue for the county.

The commissioners did agree to spend $1.7 million on a capital outlay note to pay for some essential school repairs during their May meeting.

Commissioners voted 12-9 to approve the $50 wheel tax, but the measure required 14 votes or a two-thirds majority to pass the tax.

The wheel tax would have generated approximately $960,000 in revenue for county government and the county’s schools.

The commissioners voting for the wheel tax were Charlie Garrison, Jim Rickman, Anthony Smith, Kenneth Amerson, Steve Browder, Fred Carroll, Jeff Lipford, Kevin Lipford, James McNeil, Carol Ann Woods, Jay Weatherford and Stan Wheeler.

The commissioners voting against the wheel tax were Wilburn Gene Ashe, Billy Brown, Neal Burks, David McCullar, Tammy Dillon, Keith Jernigan, Brenda Cauley and Stevie Clark.

County Mayor Ronnie Brooks is undecided about whether to bring the wheel tax to a vote at the June meeting or whether a $40 wheel tax

might pull in the twothirds majority necessary to pass the measure.

“It was disappointing the wheel tax failed to get enough votes,” said Brooks. “I’m going to think about and see about trying it again in June. We do not want to raise the property tax rate.”

Brooks said the county had a chance to move forward in improving schools, fixing county roads and doing more with economic development with the extra revenue.

McNairy County had been paying a $20 wheel tax to pay for the McNairy County Justice Center until the end of March.

The Art of Self-Forgiveness “For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you: But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses,” Matthew 6:14-15 You’re in the grocery store picking up a few things when someone accidentally bumps into you. They give a quick apology, and you shuffle on without giving it a second thought.

Your husband walks in the door from a very long day and he’s a little snappy with you. But, being the good husband that he is, he apologizes and you forgive him. Life is beautiful in your household once again, and the Brady Bunch is left in a fog of envy.

However, what happens if we turn the stakes up a little?

What if you find out that the person you’ve considered to be one of your best friends had actually betrayed you? I mean, how could they, right?! Friendship betrayal is serious a kind of pain, but it happened between Jesus and Judas, didn’t it? (Luke 22:48) Even then, had Judas repented, forgiveness would have been given. Don’t believe me? Tell me the difference between Judas and Peter. But what if we made it a little more “close to home?” We know we can forgive others, but...What about you forgiving you?

Have you ever done something that you wish you hadn’t?

Something that you wish you could take back? There’s always that one incident that haunts you. For some, it’s that first drug hit that leads you to years of life in a downward spiral.

For others, the decision to cut off a family member from your life, only to find out they are killed weeks later, without making amends. How do you forgive yourself of something like this?

Why is it so much easier to forgive others than it is to forgive ourselves? We can forgive the person in the grocery store. We can forgive the grumpy spouse. We can even forgive the backstabbing friend. But what about forgiving ourselves?

It’s more difficult to forgive ourselves because we feel the guilt and the hurt, whereas when someone else hurts us, we feel the hurt only. This means we are struggling to overcome two negative emotions rather than just the one.

Sometimes, we don’t feel like we’re worthy of forgiveness.

However tempting it is to hold to this belief, we must - and I emphasize - must - get rid of this notion if we are to survive -both emotionally and spiritually. After all, if God- who is far more holy and righteous than we are-can forgive us, then why can’t we forgive ourselves? Are we guilty of holding ourselves to a higher standard than He who created the very concept of forgiveness? (Romans 5:8) I don’t know any rational person who would admit to this, but their actions may say otherwise.

And which speaks louder, actions or words?

Corinth, Miss.

Sound Off

Downtown demo needs to continue I think it's a shame for the City of Corinth and the Corinth Preservation Commission to be taking the approach they are regarding the status of the old downtown gas station.

Regardless of that particular building being on a historical registry list and the questionable threat Corinth could lose its preservation tax benefit status if that building is not properly handled, the fact to me as a reader is A) It's structurally unsound; B) It contains asbestos; and C) I question if old steel fuel tanks are still underground, which would require further attention.

It seems ridiculous to treat a long-time dedicated downtown business owner such as John Dodd to put forth so much money to retain a building in this condition — perhaps even more money than the city would lose in preservation tax benefits?

Surely committees and city officials have their mission statements and tax motives to live by, but I'm seeing no common sense in the matter. The majority of Corinthians drive by that old building and all say the same thing: “They outta just knock it down.”

This situation is a shameful step backwards when viewed from outside the community.

Regardless of what the Corinth Historical Preservation Committee needs to protect, there has to be room for common sense as well. If asbestos is present, that alone should be a supportable reason to agree to relegate the building to being demo'd.

How much money are you going to ask Mr. Dodd to put back into such a building?

And for the sake of what?

How much are these so-called historical preservation tax benefits worth to the city versus all the business and people John Dodd has and continues to bring to downtown Corinth?

My opinion is for safety sake, that building needs to be removed off the registry list and demo'd. Completely and properly. Asbestos removed, unsound roof torn down, upheaved concrete removed -- everything.

And while the City is at it, take a drive along U.S. Hwy. 72 and pick out a few buildings there that need to be demo'd as well.

Move this community ahead businesswise and quit taking steps backwards to protect old abandoned buildings that no one wants and surely no one is going to invest in.

Frierson points to cost of Medicaid expansion Medicaid expansion won’t come without budgetary consequences in Mississippi.

That’s the message circulated this week by the Republican chairman of the House Appropriations Committee to the state’s education lobby leaders as the time left for reauthorization of Medicaid for FY 2014 draws shorter.

With pressure from Democratic colleagues in the Legislature, public health advocacy groups and most of the state’s hospitals growing for Medicaid expansion, state Rep. Herb Frierson, R-Poplarville, sent a letter to every college president, community college president, county and municipal school district superintendent and others in positions of leadership in public education from kindergarten to graduate school in Mississippi.

“I just wanted people who look to the Legislature for education funding to be armed with the facts about how the state’s budget pie gets divided and to know that Medicaid expansion isn’t something that can be done without consequences for every other function of state government,” Frierson said.

Frierson said the letter was

in response to post-2013 regular session inquiries from education leaders about Sid Salter why education fundColumnist ing had not improved on pace with improvements in the state’s economy since the depths of what he called the “Great Recession.”

The Pearl River County lawmaker answered that question bluntly: “The primary reason is the Medicaid program: The greatest impact on the funding education since the beginning of the recession has been the growth in spending for the Medicaid program.”

Frierson cited an analysis of the percentage of growth of all state General Fund appropriations for the past decade against the percentage of growth in state Medicaid appropriations over the same period. The chairman’s numbers showed that from Fiscal Year 2004 through FY 2014, the total of state General Fund appropriations had grown by 38.6 percent with a 10-year average growth rate of 3.86 percent per year.

But over the same period, Frierson said General Fund appropriations for Medicaid increased by 136 percent, a 10-year average growth rate of 13.6 percent per year.

More telling in terms of illustrating the difficulty the recession placed on state lawmakers in budgeting were Frierson’s numbers that show total FY 2009 state General Funds appropriated (counting reappropriations and deficits) at $5.020 billion compared with FY 2014 total General Fund appropriations (counting reappropriations, deficits, and the proposed post-conference Medicaid funding level) of $5.032 billion – a difference of some $12 million.

Reminding education leaders of facts they already well knew, Frierson’s letter cited FY 2009 as representing the highest comprehensive level of education funding K-IHL and FY 2008 as representing the last time the Mississippi Adequate Education Program was fully funded.

From that basis, Frierson addressed why he believes K-IHL wasn’t funded at the FY 2009 level in the FY 2014 budget – a budget that he said saw K-IHL underfunded by $264.9 million,

Medicaid increased by $182 million, Human Services increased by $25.9 million, Corrections increased by $68.7 million, debt service increased by $86.3 million and mental health cut $48.4 million.

Frierson cited legal and logical reasons why spending was up in Human Services, Corrections and debt service and why funding for education and mental health was down. But the bottom line for Frierson was growth in spending in the Medicaid program.

“It is obvious that when more money is provided for the Medicaid program, there is less money available for other agencies and programs, including for K-IHL (education),” Frierson said.

For pro-education Democrats, Frierson’s framing of the interrelationship of education and public health funding in Mississippi represents a difficult argument to ignore or rebut. With onetime money gone, lawmakers must now make those value judgments in crafting a solution.

Hillary will take only so much guff

BY ROGER SIMON I have gone from a nonbeliever to an agnostic as to whether Hillary Clinton will run for president in 2016.

Recently, however, she delivered a major signal that she may not be a candidate for high office: When asked about a politically sensitive topic, she replied with complete candor.

While complete candor does not automatically disqualify one from running for president, neither does it help.

The sensitive topic was the tragic death of four Americans, including our ambassador to Libya, in Benghazi last September.

No, strike that. The sensitive topic was the lunkheaded and futile rehashing of the “talking points” made by members of the Obama administration following the attacks.

Was the attack in Benghazi triggered by demonstrations elsewhere in the Arab world or by local terrorism? And who changed what clauses in the talking points?

And who the hell cares?

On Jan. 23, Clinton appeared before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, where Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., a tea party dar-

ling, wanted to talk about the talking points.

“We were misled that there were supposedly protests and that something sprang out of that — an assault sprang out of that,” Johnson said, “and that was easily ascertained that that was not the fact, and the American people could have known that within days, and they didn't know that.”

Clinton, a former senator and former secretary of state, knows how to put up with guff. But she figured the American people had put up with enough guff when it came to Benghazi.

“With all due respect, the fact is we had four dead Americans,” she replied.

“Was it because of a protest or was it because of guys out for a walk one night who decided that they'd go kill some Americans? What difference at this point does it make? It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again, Senator.”

Exactly. Precisely. And, as I said, a fine example of candor in a place — Congress — where candor usually dies of loneliness.

So what happens? Here is John McCain this Sunday on ABC's “This Week,” find-

ing some way to blame Clinton for something to do with Benghazi.

“She had to have been in the loop some way, but we don't know for sure,” McCain said. “What I do know is that her response before the Foreign Relations Committee — 'Who cares?' Remember when she said, 'Well, who cares how this happened?' in a rather emotional way?”

Keep in mind that John McCain has done more Sunday talk shows than you have had hot meals. He knows what he is going to say. He has an entire staff to prepare talking points for him.

But on Sunday, he seriously misquoted Clinton. She said, “What difference at this point does it make?” regarding the inciting incident for the killing of the four men. “It is our job to figure out what happened and do everything we can to prevent it from ever happening again.”

But McCain change her response to: “Who cares?

Remember when she said, 'Well, who cares how this happened?' in a rather emotional way?”

This is not only a falsehood and a smear, but a sexist falsehood and smear. McCain is attempting to lay the groundwork that Hillary is

World Wide Web: www.dailycorinthian.com To Sound Off: E-mail: email: news@dailycorinthian.com Circulation 287-6111 Classified Adv. 287-6147

too “emotional” to be president because we all know women are often too emotional, aren't they?

Except for the coolly rational Sarah Palin, that is, who McCain still insists was ready from day one to become president of the United States and commander in chief.

On Monday, President Obama said at a press conference: “The whole issue of talking points, frankly, throughout this process has been a sideshow. There's no there there.”

“We dishonor (the Benghazi dead) when we turn things like this into a political circus,” he concluded.

If Hillary Clinton runs for president in 2016, everything she did or did not do during her career will be fair game, including sideshows, circuses and whether there is any there there.

But is that what she really wants? Or is she just a little tired of the whole, sad game?

As I said, I am currently agnostic on the matter. And I think she is, too.

GOP, Dems question Holder over subpoenas WASHINGTON — Congressional Republicans and Democrats on Wednesday challenged Attorney General Eric Holder over the Justice Department’s handling of the investigation of national security leaks and its failure to talk to The Associated Press before issuing subpoenas for the news service’s telephone records.

In exchanges that often turned testy, Holder defended the inquiry while pointing out that he had removed himself from any decision on subpoenas.

The attorney general explained that he had been interviewed about what he knew of national security developments that prompted the probe.

The investigation follows congressional demands into whether Obama administration officials leaked secret information to the media last year to enhance the president’s national security credentials in an election year. “It’s an ongoing matter and an ongoing matter in which I know nothing,�

Holder told the House Judiciary Committee.

The Justice Department secretly obtained two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for the AP, seizing the records for more than 20 separate telephone lines assigned to the AP and its journalists in April and May 2012.

Murder charges sought for man in 5 deaths RENO, Nev. — Authorities are seeking murder

charges against a 25-yearold man they believe is responsible for a string of five apparently random killings this week in northern Nevada.

Lyon County Sheriff Allen Veil said it appears Jeremiah Bean acted alone in the shootings at two homes in the rural town of Fernley, and another about 30 miles west at the Interstate 80 exit for the Mustang Ranch near Reno.

Bean was arrested Monday on burglary charges and identified as a “person of interest� in the string of homicides, but authorities now want to add open murder, arson, robbery, gun and grand larceny charges.

Investigators said Robert Pape and Dorothy Pape, both 84, were found dead early Monday in a house in Fernley, a city of 19,000.

Angie Duff, 67, and Lester Leiber, 69, were found dead in a home a half-block away.

Veil said it appears Bean took the Papes’ vehicle and ended up near the Mustang exit. It was there that he allegedly shot 52-year-old Eliazar Graham, a newspaper deliveryman from Sparks, and took his vehicle.

Bean had been staying two houses away from Duff’s home, Veil said. Authorities said they haven’t determined a motive.

Veil described the attacks as “absolutely shocking to us.� “It is senseless. The people we have talked to, they don’t know whether to be paranoid, scared to death, shocked, angry,�

Veil told reporters Tuesday at a news conference.

Bean was being held at the Lyon County jail. He has a local arrest record and a felony conviction related

to burglary and attempted grand larceny, deputies said. He has also acknowledged gang ties.

Nissan announces birthday celebration

Suit against KC diocese reaches settlement KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A lawsuit filed against the Diocese of Kansas City-St. Joseph and Bishop Robert Finn by a girl who was 2 years old when Kansas City priest Shawn Ratigan took pornographic photos of her has tentatively been settled for $600,000, a Minnesota attorney representing the girl said Wednesday.

Gregg Meyers of the St. Paul, Minn., law firm Jeff Anderson and Associates told The Associated Press about the deal before it had been officially announced.

He said it was reached after a full day of mediation between the parties Tuesday, soon after U.S. District Judge Gary Fenner in Kansas City dismissed one of two counts in the suit.

Fenner dismissed one count alleging the bishop and diocese aided and abetted Ratigan in his possession of child pornography. The judge said federal law stipulates that to be guilty of aiding and abetting, a party must have done so before or during the commission of a crime.

He said the diocese and bishop didn’t know about hundreds of lewd photos on Ratigan’s laptop computer until after he had committed the crime.

Ratigan pleaded guilty in August to taking pornographic photos of the girl, known as Jane Doe 173 in the litigation, in May 2006 at a church in Buchanan County. He awaits sentencing and initially was a party to the civil lawsuit but failed to respond.

CANTON — Nissan’s 10th birthday bash on May 25 in Jackson, Miss., will feature Kool & the Gang.

Camille Young, Nissan’s spokeswoman at the Canton, Miss., plant, says in a news release that the event will be held at the Mississippi Veterans Memorial Stadium in Jackson.

There will also be circus performers and a children’s area with a variety of activities.

Young says gates to the stadium will open at 4 p.m. Food and family entertainment will continue until 9 p.m., including Kool & The Gang’s performance at 7 p.m. and fireworks at 8:30 p.m. Admission is free.

Nissan will provide complimentary beverages. Food will be available from local vendors. Security will be provided. Coolers, alcohol and outside food or beverages are not allowed.

Nissan employs about 5,000 people in Canton. Â

previous disaster assistance. Jon Mabry, chief operations officer of MDA’s recovery division, told The Sun Herald 1,200 to 1,400 households could be added.

Under the program, he says, 2,400 homes have been repaired and 625 modular cottages permanently placed.

The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Office of Fair Housing and Equal Opportunity recently cited MDA for failing to document various Neighborhood Home requirements involving low- to moderate-income residents and businesses that employ them.

Mabry says HUD’s Community Development and Planning Office has been satisfied with the program’s efforts. Â

Trial rescheduled for man charged in riot NATCHEZ — A federal

judge has rescheduled the trial of an inmate accused of participating in a deadly prison riot last year in Mississippi.

One guard was killed and 20 people were injured in the May 20 riot at the privately run Adams County Correctional Facility in Natchez, which holds illegal immigrants convicted of crimes in the U.S. Marco Perez-Serrano has been identified as the first person to attack correction officer Catlin Carithers, who died.

Court records say Perez-Serrano, also known as Jesus Fernando Ochoa, hit him with a food tray.

Attorney Joseph M. Hollomon asked for a delay of the June 3 trial.

It is now scheduled for Aug. 19.

It took hours for authorities to control the riot, which grew to involve hundreds of inmates.

More charges in tobacco scheme OXFORD — Two Kentucky men and a tobacco company have been indicted for their alleged involvement in the trafficking of contraband cigarettes.

David Brian Cooper, 47, George Bertram, 53, both of Jamestown, Ky., and Tantus Tobacco Co of Russell Springs, Ky., pleaded not guilty Tuesday in U.S. District Court in Oxford, Miss. Trial is scheduled for July 8.

The two men and the company are accused of wire fraud and conspiring to sell cigarettes through Mississippi to avoid paying federal and state taxes. Cooper and Tantus Tobacco Co. are also accused of money laundering.

Attorneys for the Cooper and the company filed a motion Wednesday asking that the case be moved to federal court in Kentucky, where they said all the alleged illegal acts are said to have been committed.

They said witnesses in the case live in Kentucky and Cooper and the company have no ties to Mississippi.

The indictment alleges Bertram, Cooper, Tantus Tobacco conspired to commit wire fraud and money laundering, by selling cigarettes in Kentucky while falsely reporting that the cigarettes were being sold in Mississippi, underpaying Kentucky about $1.6 million.

Copper is accused of selling 320,490 cartons of cigarettes to another Kentucky distributor and faking invoices that he sold them to Tupelo, Miss., businessman Jerry Burke through J&B Wholesale, and others to avoid paying taxes on cigarettes. Bertram is accused of helping plan and executing the scheme.

The scheme is alleged to have occurred between October 2007 and Jan. 21, 2009 in Lee County.

If convicted Bertram faces up to six years in prison and $1.25 million in fines. For Cooper, it’s

up to 23 years in prison and $1.75 million in fines.

The government is also seeking forfeiture of property acquired with the alleged profit from illegal acts.

Purvis man faces murder charge

JACKSON — The state Court of Appeals has upheld the life sentence given a Scott County man convicted in a 2010 slaying.

Timothy Joseph Patterson was convicted in 2011 of murder in the death of 28-year-old Michael Guy. Patterson was sentenced to life in prison.

Prosecutors say Guy was shot to death on May 9, 2010, at a home in Morton where Patterson and others were watching a fight on television.

Defense attorneys say Patterson never intended to harm Guy. The Appeals Court rejected Patterson’s arguments that his attorney should have done a better job and that prosecutors didn’t prove his guilt.

The court says there was undisputed testimony that Patterson shot Guy once in the head and then stood over Guy and shot him in the head a second time.

Other funding sources will be needed to fund the project, officials said.

Councilman Ed Gemmill told other council members that a downtown baseball stadium would jump start businesses and tourism in the area. Gemmill said the stadium proposal has the support of many business owners in Biloxi.

Councilman Bill Stallworth said the site is currently a parking lot for Beau Rivage employees.

Residents have until 1:30 p.m. June 18 to file written protests against the bond. It will take 10 percent of the qualified voters or 1,500, whichever is less, to force an election. If there’s not enough opposition, the bond could be issued anytime without an election for up to two years.

Stallworth said that while no team has been named to play in the stadium, the city is confident a Double A team in the same league as Mobile, Ala., and Pensacola, Fla., can be brought in.

Minor league stadiums have been built most recently in Birmingham, Ala., this year; Pensacola, in 2011; Pearl, Miss., in 2004; and Montgomery, Ala., in 2003.

PURVIS — A 36-yearold Purvis man has been charged with murder and first-degree arson following a fatal house fire Monday night.

Lamar County Sheriff Danny Rigel tells The Hattiesburg American Timothy Taylor was taken into custody for investigation on suspicion of arson. He says Taylor was picked up in Purvis late Monday night, charged with arson after his arrest, then with murder on Tuesday.

Emergency Management Director James Smith says after the fire was put out, they found human remains inside the home.

Rigel says the cause of death and a confirmed identity on the victim are both unknown pending autopsy.

He said Lamar County

Baseball stadium gets council’s backing

Evaluation ordered over hospital threat

BILOXI — The Biloxi City Council has voted 5-2 on a resolution that could lead to the borrowing of $20 million for the construction of an athletic stadium.

Officials said the stadium could seat up to 7,000. It would be built on land leased from the Beau Rivage Casino. The site is across U.S. Highway 90 from the Biloxi casino.

Councilmen George Lawrence and David Fayard voted against the plan Tuesday.

Backers hope to attract a Double A baseball team to the Gulf Coast.

The resolution calls for the city to issue bonds to borrow the money and use the funds on construction of the stadium.

OXFORD — A federal judge has ordered a Tupelo man to undergo a psychiatric evaluation over a threat to shoot people at a local hospital.

WTVA-TV in Tupelo reports that 24-year-old Cortavius Javon Hampton is accused of making the threat to federal court officials while talking to them over the phone about the status of a case he had filed against the North Mississippi Medical Center.

According to an indictment handed down in March, authorities say during the conversation, Hampton stated he felt no one was listening and he would have to get a gun, go to the hospital and shoot some people.

Justice Court Judge Bill Anderson denied bond on both charges. Taylor is being held in the Lamar County Jail.

It was unclear whether he has an attorney.

Starting a ‘waystation’ for beloved butterfly I learned how to spell Asclepius yesterday.

Never heard the word before, but it might be the most important term I memorize in 2013.

Asclepius is the botanical name for milkweeds.

Now, I already knew a bit about milkweeds.

They’re the only plants that Monarch butterflies will lay their eggs on -one tiny egg per leaf --s o that when the caterpillars hatch, they’ll eat the leaves with its milky sap, which happens to be poisonous to birds. And they retain that poison in their bodies when the caterpillars metamorphose into butterflies. Ingenious!

Over the centuries, birds have learned to avoid them. That means lots more survive to flutter into our gardens on their famously blackand-orange wings like tiny stained-glass windows come alive.

As someone remarked: Say “butterfly,” and a Monarch is what Ryland comes to Bruhwiler most folks’ minds.

Columnist Like bluebirds and bald eagles, they’re one of the most beloved critters in our land. How I’d love to be standing in a grove of trees this fall as they alight around me by the tens of thousands on their way to Mexico where they spend their winters.

But there’s a downside: No milkweeds, no Monarchs.

And that’s really sad.

Because we’ve been destroying their habitats, hard and fast.

Though there are about 20 types of Asclepius spread throughout the U.S., they grow on farm-

land and the edges of forests. Unfortunately, we keep on bulldozing those areas and building subdivisions and shopping centers “at a rate of 6,000 acres a day.”

According to MonarchWatch.org, that’s “2.2 million acres each year, the area of Delaware and Rhode Island combined.”

Mind-boggling.

Our growing populations have been gobbling up the countryside for decades, of course. A more recent problem is farmers’ growing more and more corn and soybeans that have been genetically modified so they won’t die when fields are sprayed with herbicides.

The good news is that farmers don’t have to till the soil (therefore, far fewer tons of topsoil get washed away by rain).

But the weed killer in the herbicide, called glyphosate, doesn’t just

kill “bad” weeds like Johnson grass that choke out the crops. “Good” weeds growing alongside the fields get zapped, too.

As I said, no milkweeds, no Monarchs. And many other butterflies and bees and hummingbirds and suchlike feed on milkweeds, too.

It’s really starting to show. The number of Monarchs overwintering in Mexico’s forests is less than half of what it was in the ‘90s. That’s less than 20 years ago.

If we want one of Mother Nature’s most beautiful creatures to survive, it’s going to be up to us — that’s you and me -- to pick up the slack.

In this case, that boils down to something very basic: Plant a milkweed in your yard.

Better yet, plant a cluster of them. Or a row.

Or a stream of Asclepius winding along the border

of your yard or veggie garden, a sunny corner of your school yard or church.

There’s Common Milkweed (Asclepius syriaca), of course, that’s pale purple and grows just fine in both clay and sandy ground. More compact — and in no way invasive — is the bright orange Butterfly Weed (Asclepius tuberosa) that you’ve noticed all your life growing here and there along country roads. It makes a striking addition to the summer garden among blackeyed Susans and day lilies.

But my favorite is the beautiful white milkweed (Asclepius variegata) that I happened upon in my own woods some years ago. I was astounded. The little flowers form a regal geometry as stunning as any tiled wall in Venetian palace or Eastern mosque.

And don’t forget to

add nectar plants to your “waystation” for the fullgrown butterflies. Purple coneflowers, Brazilian verbena, butterfly bushes and old-fashioned zinnias are so easy to grow.

(For more lists, just Google “butterfly gardens” and find all sorts of sages, lantanas, and lots of others.) It’s not too late to plant, as long as you can keep them watered when it gets good and hot.

Finally, set out a big saucer of sand and dampen it often so they have a place to land and sip. Or just keep a nearby mud puddle wet!

And say a quiet Hooray each time a winged beauty lands.

Daily Corinthian • Thursday, May 16, 2013 • 7

Starting a ‘waystation’ for beloved butterfly I learned how to spell Asclepius yesterday.

Never heard the word before, but it might be the most important term I memorize in 2013.

Asclepius is the botanical name for milkweeds.

Now, I already knew a bit about milkweeds.

They’re the only plants that Monarch butterflies will lay their eggs on -one tiny egg per leaf --s o that when the caterpillars hatch, they’ll eat the leaves with its milky sap, which happens to be poisonous to birds. And they retain that poison in their bodies when the caterpillars metamorphose into butterflies. Ingenious!

Over the centuries, birds have learned to avoid them. That means lots more survive to flutter into our gardens on their famously blackand-orange wings like tiny stained-glass windows come alive.

As someone remarked: Say “butterfly,” and a Monarch is what Ryland comes to Bruhwiler most folks’ minds.

Columnist Like bluebirds and bald eagles, they’re one of the most beloved critters in our land. How I’d love to be standing in a grove of trees this fall as they alight around me by the tens of thousands on their way to Mexico where they spend their winters.

But there’s a downside: No milkweeds, no Monarchs.

And that’s really sad.

Because we’ve been destroying their habitats, hard and fast.

Though there are about 20 types of Asclepius spread throughout the U.S., they grow on farm-

land and the edges of forests. Unfortunately, we keep on bulldozing those areas and building subdivisions and shopping centers “at a rate of 6,000 acres a day.”

According to MonarchWatch.org, that’s “2.2 million acres each year, the area of Delaware and Rhode Island combined.”

Mind-boggling.

Our growing populations have been gobbling up the countryside for decades, of course. A more recent problem is farmers’ growing more and more corn and soybeans that have been genetically modified so they won’t die when fields are sprayed with herbicides.

The good news is that farmers don’t have to till the soil (therefore, far fewer tons of topsoil get washed away by rain).

But the weed killer in the herbicide, called glyphosate, doesn’t just

kill “bad” weeds like Johnson grass that choke out the crops. “Good” weeds growing alongside the fields get zapped, too.

As I said, no milkweeds, no Monarchs. And many other butterflies and bees and hummingbirds and suchlike feed on milkweeds, too.

It’s really starting to show. The number of Monarchs overwintering in Mexico’s forests is less than half of what it was in the ‘90s. That’s less than 20 years ago.

If we want one of Mother Nature’s most beautiful creatures to survive, it’s going to be up to us — that’s you and me -- to pick up the slack.

In this case, that boils down to something very basic: Plant a milkweed in your yard.

Better yet, plant a cluster of them. Or a row.

Or a stream of Asclepius winding along the border

of your yard or veggie garden, a sunny corner of your school yard or church.

There’s Common Milkweed (Asclepius syriaca), of course, that’s pale purple and grows just fine in both clay and sandy ground. More compact — and in no way invasive — is the bright orange Butterfly Weed (Asclepius tuberosa) that you’ve noticed all your life growing here and there along country roads.

Retail woes Investors are bracing for another weak report card from J.C. Penney.

The department store chain told Wall Street last week that it would likely report a 16 percent drop in quarterly revenue today.

The retailer is pointing fingers at prior leadership for part of that shortfall. J.C. Penney fired its CEO Ron Johnson last month after only 17 months on the job and rehired his predecessor, Mike Ullman.

The consumer price index, excluding the volatile food and energy categories, edged up only 0.1 percent in March, the latest evidence that the sluggish economy is keeping inflation in check. Economists anticipate that core prices edged up 0.2 percent last month.

monthly percent change, excluding food and energy costs 0.3

Wal-Mart's latest quarterly results should provide insight into consumer spending in the first quarter.

The retail giant draws nearly 10 percent of all nonautomotive retail spending in the U.S., making it a bellwether of consumer expenditures.

Some Wall Street analysts anticipate Wal-Mart's sales weakened in March and April, as delayed tax refunds and higher Social Security payroll taxes began to catch up with consumers.

Woman needs courage to end man’s plan for future together DEAR ABBY: I am a divorcee with college-aged children. I love my children, and I thought I loved my ex. However, after my divorce I wonder if I’m capable of loving anyone other than my children again.

Two years after the divorce I started a relationship with a man who is 10 years older. He had recently ended a longterm dating/ living together relationship.

I wasn’t particularly drawn Abigail to him, but he was very per- Van Buren sistent.

We finally, jokingly, Dear Abby agreed to be “exclusively casual” and began dating. My children don’t dislike him; they are indifferent to him.

We have been dating for six years. I do not love him. He, however, professes to adore me and wants us to spend our lives together. I do not want this to go on any longer. I have some serious health issues and I’m not interested in having him as my caretaker.

He has already made plans for us to be together for this. I don’t want him doing this for me.

He’s a good man. He deserves someone who wants the devo-

tion he is so willing to give. How do I tell him to move on? I’m financially stable. He’s not after my money; he’s very comfortable on his own. I need to force him to go find a woman who needs or wants him. Many of his friends think I take advantage of his feelings. I don’t want to be in this position any longer. Any advice you could offer would be a gift. — DRAGGING MY FEET IN TEXAS DEAR DRAGGING YOUR FEET: The longer you put this off, the harder it will be, and if you don’t open your mouth you are going to find yourself in exactly the position you say you don’t want to be. The magic words are: “‘John,’ I have enjoyed your friendship, but I’m not in love with you. I had hoped that as time passed I would fall in love with you, but it hasn’t happened and now I realize it isn’t going to. I want to deal with my health issues on my own. I don’t want you to be my caretaker. What I do want is to end our relationship so you can find a woman who will love you the way you deserve to be loved. Sadly, that’s not me — but I wish you well and ... goodbye.”

Do not expect him to welcome this dose of reality, but those are the words that will set you — and him — free.

DEAR ABBY: I am a veteran

and while I have spent this past year in school, I can’t seem to connect with any of the younger students there. It’s disheartening, to be honest, and I feel it’s part of the reason I can’t enjoy school at my age (23) after all my experiences in combat.

I can’t decide whether to drop out and join a private security company, or tough it out and deal with these kids who don’t take education seriously. I miss work at the same time. Any thoughts?

— TORN IN MILFORD, CONN. DEAR TORN: The students you describe are at a very different level of maturity than you — and I don’t mean chronologically. After having experienced combat, you have a different perspective on what’s important in life than someone who hasn’t been tested.

You have earned the right to a college degree, so please don’t waste the opportunity. If you complete your education, you will have more career options than if you quit now. If you feel you want to go into security work after graduation, that option will still be open. Others may not be.

(Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.)

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

It’s been said that you can’t fit a square peg in a round hole, but this depends on what the peg is made of. Some materials are quite malleable. Similarly, you feel willing to adjust to make things work today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

People have their own ideas about what’s amusing, and it’s not always easy to get them to loosen up and laugh. But you have an advantage these days: Your brand of humor has universal appeal.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

You don’t always follow through with an action just because it makes sense to do so. Some things worth doing are nonsensical, at least on the surface, but you’re compelled by deeper reasoning.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

Some endeavors are just pointless, but you feel you have to go through with them anyway to get where you want to go.

This is not a day to waste time questioning. Do what needs to be done.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A cellphone can be an alarm clock, a map, a flashlight, a music box, a camera and a thousand other things. Oh, and it can call people. You’ll meet a person who is similarly versatile, and the relationship will serve multiple purposes.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You’ll be a shoulder to cry on.

Listen with an open heart, but don’t advise. Unless you’ve really experienced a similar circumstance, it would be overstepping to assume you know how another person feels.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

People should respect your domain, and you shouldn’t have to fight to stay in charge of what happens there. Alas, if you have something good going on, there will always be those who want to home in on it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

You build an easy rapport with fellow water signs today -- that’s Cancer, Pisces and other Scorpios. Professional and platonic conversations lead to emotional bonds that go deeper.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). It makes sense to pursue what you enjoy and try to get paid for it, too. But getting paid will change your feelings and focus. There are some things that are kept pure by leaving money out of the equation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Except for in cartoons, most hypnotists don’t really use fob watches to put subjects in a trance. Similarly, you don’t need a prop to command attention, because you have the power of your voice and intention.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The good thing about not being “normal” is that it allows you to see how “normal” has been a sham all along. If no one completely fits the definition, then what is it really defining?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your plan will get better when you know more, but don’t spend all of your time gathering information. At some point, you have to jump into the game. Effort and persistence are as important to your success as knowledge.

• When Cincinnati’s Devin Mesoraco and ShinSoo Choo hit back-to-back home runs off Atlanta closer Craig Kimbrel, it was just the second time in 30 years that a team went yard back-toback with two outs in the ninth to win a game.

Nick Green and J.D. Drew of the Braves were the last to do it, which was back in 2004.

• On May 7, Tyler Chatwood of the Colorado Spring Sky Sox threw a nine-inning shutout.

What’s the big deal, you ask? There have been 24 no-hitters since a Sky Sox pitcher threw a shutout at home. Cory Vance did it on August 15, 2003.

• After the Braves defeated the Giants 6-3 behind the pitching of Julio Teheran on Thursday night, the rest of the weekend series shaped up for three pitching duels. Matt Cain and Tim Hudson on Friday, Madison Bumgarner vs. Paul Maholm on Saturday with Tim Lincecum and Kris Medlen going on Sunday. However, the Giants’ pitchers were the only arms doing any dueling. San Francisco bashed Atlanta pitching as the Giants outscored the Braves 23-4.

• Speaking of the Angels, when owner Arte Moreno signed former MVP Josh Hamilton for $125 million over the next five seasons just a year after signing Albert Pujols to a record deal, he probably expected a little more. Fans were excited too of the prospects of Hamilton hitting cleanup behind Pujols. But through Sunday, Hamilton had driven in Pujols just once this season.

Evan Longoria, Tampa Bay The Rays are beginning to perk up and it’s no surprise that Longoria has been carrying the offense. Last week he hit safely in all seven games, batting .464 with a 1,496 OPS. He had eight extra-base hits, three homers and drove in 11 runs.

Chris Sale, Chicago The lanky lefty’s gem on Sunday night against the Angels provided the highlight, but Sale was terrific in both starts last week. In addition to the one-hitter Sunday, Sale allowed just one run in 7.1 innings for a no-decision in a win at Kansas City. In 16.1 innings, Sale had a 0.43 WHIP and 0.59 ERA.

Jean Segura, Milwaukee The Brewers haven’t been very good recently, but their shortstop has been outstanding in the field and at the dish. Last week he batted .500 with four multi-hit games in the Brewers’ five games. Over the weekend at Cincinnati, he was 8-for-12 with a pair of homers, two doubles and four runs.

Shelby Miller, St. Louis The young righthander made just one start last week, but what an outing it was. Miller allowed a leadoff single to Eric Young in the first inning, then retired the next 27 in order. The one-hitter was the first shutout of his career.

Josmil Pinto, C, Minnesota The 24-year-old backstop from Venezuela is already a veteran of seven minor league seasons. Playing this season at Double-A New Britain, Pinto has hit safely in 28 of 36 games with 14 multi-hit games including six threehit games. For the season, he’s batting .336 with eight home runs and 34 RBIs. With two outs and runners in scoring position, his average increases to .467.

MAY 20, 1948 The Yankee Clipper, Joe DiMaggio hits for the cycle as the Yankees pound five White Sox hurlers for 22 hits, including nine for extra bases in New York’s 13-2 win at Comiskey Park in Chicago. DiMaggio has five hits on the day, including two home runs.

Second baseman Snuffy Stirnweiss is the only Yank without a hit.

MAY 10, 1967 Perhaps it was baseball karma, but the first-ever scheduled night game in major league history is rained out. The Philadelphia Phillies are slated to play the Cincinnati Reds at Crosley Field, but the weather doesn’t cooperate. The game would be played the following night.

Brewers Carlos Gomez, Jean Segura are 1-2 in NL batting race.

Angels On pace to lose 100 games.

Marlins Have won just one series this season.

Astros Opponents are batting .300.

Playoff Droughts With the Pirates currently in position to make the playoffs in the National League, and the Royals within a couple of games in the American League, it’s possible that Toronto could enter the winter with the majors’ longest playoff drought. There’s still too many games to play this season for any realistic projections, and the Pirates have faltered badly down the stretch the past two seasons, so Pittsburgh’s long drought could continue. Of the 15 droughts of three years or more, it’s safe to say that at least 10 of them will increase by another year or more. Here are the 15 longest current playoff droughts in baseball.

2016 National League All-Stars With the 2013 All-Star Game still more than a month away, it’s difficult to project just who the players will be in New York at Citi Field. But that doesn’t stop me from looking into the future and predicting who the best players in each league will be. Last week we selected the American League squad, this week the NL. Here goes...

STARTERS RF Bryce Harper Washington Introducing the leading vote getter in the National League, second only to Mike Trout of the Angels.

CF Andrew McCutchen Pittsburgh The anchor of the Pirates lineup will have finally led the club to a winning record by 2016.

1B Joey Votto Cincinnati Another batting title and MVP trophy would be good guesses for the face of the Reds.

LF Ryan Braun Milwaukee Still one of the premier hitters in the National League.

C Buster Posey San Francisco The catcher is the proud owner of multiple MVP trophies.

DH Giancarlo Stanton Miami Okay, so the chances of Stanton still residing in Miami in 2016 are slim, but he’ll be a good option for the manager’s choice for DH anyway.

3B David Wright New York Anthony Rendon’s numbers will overshadow Wright’s, but the fans will vote for the New York veteran one more season to give him the start.

2B Brandon Phillips Cincinnati With few choices at the position, the veteran wins the fans vote.

SS Jean Segura Milwaukee With no real stars at the position, fans have begun to fall in love with Segura in Milwaukee.

SP Matt Harvey New York Harvey continues to remind Mets fans of Tom Terrific from the 1970s.

11.2 27 11 5-11 .188 9.45 4

RESERVES C Yadier Molina St. Louis The 33-year-old Cardinals backstop makes his eighth and final All-Star appearance.

C Miguel Montero Arizona Without Posey in the league, Montero may have an All-Star start or two by then.

1B Nolan Arenado Colorado The rising star in Colorado moves from third to first for 2016.

1B Paul Goldschmidt Arizona His power and average will steadily rise every season for the next several years.

1B Allen Craig St. Louis The hitting machine can’t seem to stay healthy enough to become the premier first baseman in the NL. 2B Starlin Castro Chicago Moved off of short by Javier Baez, Castro will struggle at third before finding a home at second.

3B Anthony Rendon Washington Ryan Zimmerman was moved to first base to accommodate Rendon who quickly becomes the best third baseman in the league.

SS Didi Gregorius Arizona Best in the majors with the glove and his bat isn’t too shabby either.

OF Jedd Gyorko San Diego Youngster Christian Yelich of Miami may have a better argument, but the Padres must be represented.

OF Justin Upton Atlanta Justin upstages his brother in Atlanta to become the city’s latest fan favorite.

OF Carlos Gonzalez Colorado The veteran Rockie is still putting up big numbers at Coors Field.

OF Jason Heyward Atlanta Two-thirds of the Braves outfield will be represented.

Athlon Sports

Buster Posey of the Giants (left) and Matt Harvey will lead the NL in the 2016 All-Star Game.

OF Oscar Tavares St. Louis The brightest rising star in the National League makes the team, but doesn’t get in the game.

P Stephen Strasburg Washington Difficult to resist calling on Strasburg to start the game now that there is no innings limit, but Harvey is too good.

P Tyler Skaggs Arizona Many fans in Arizona would argue that Skaggs has better numbers than Harvey and deserved to start. But his time will come.

P Adam Wainwright St. Louis There are maybe four or five pitchers who deserve this spot, but the manager’s choice is the veteran from St. Louis.

P Cole Hamels Philadelphia The Phillies have turned into an old, mediocre team, but Hamels is still tough to hit.

P Clayton Kershaw Los Angeles Now completely over a hip injury, Kershaw remains a Cy Young candidate.

P Shelby Miller St. Louis The new ace of the Cardinals.

P Jose Fernandez Miami Possesses nasty stuff, but rarely gets run support.

P Madison Bumgarner San Francisco The lefty is part of one of the best 1-2 punches in baseball.

P Craig Kimbrel Atlanta Still the best closer in the league. His career may rival Mariano Rivera’s without the postseason glory, of course.

P Aroldis Chapman Cincinnati We see him as an All-Star whether starting or finishing.

P Drew Storen Washington Back in closer role, he piles up saves and his resume looks good at All-Star time.

As of Sunday, Cincinnati second baseman Brandon Phillips and shortstop Troy Tulowitzki of Colorado were tied for the National League lead in RBIs with 31. Can you name the last middle infielder to lead the senior circuit in ribbies?

Seconds it took Dodgers shortstop Dee Gordon to score from first base on a double by Nick Punto last week.

Outs made on the bases this season for Milwaukee, the most in the majors.

Pitchers with an ERA below 2.00 so far this season.

Atlanta Braves record in their last 16 road games. During that stretch, the Braves’ ERA has ballooned to 5.52. In the team’s first seven away games this season, the club was 7-0 with a 1.41 ERA. Batting average for B.J. and Justin Upton over the first 11 games of May. They have combined for no home runs and three RBIs for the month.

Strikeouts per nine innings for the Cleveland Indians pitchers in the first 11 games of May. Fewest home losses for any team (Texas) and fewest road wins for any team (Houston). The Astros have yet to visit their division rival this season with nine games to play at Texas.

TRIVIA ANSWER: Shortstop Ernie Banks of the Chicago Cubs was the last to accomplish that with 143 RBIs in 1959.

• For the first time in a long time, a .500 record was within reach for the Angels franchise. The team needs to win 87 games this season to finish the campaign over .500. It would be the first time the Angels’ franchise has been above the breakeven mark since winning its first game in 1961. However, after a 14-23 start, the Angels must go 73-52 the rest of the way. Looks like the Halos must wait until at least 2014.

Ex-Cub Zambrano, Phils agree to minor league deal

BY DAN GELSTON Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — In a need of a lift in the rotation, the Phillies are taking a chance on Carlos Zambrano.

The three-time All-Star agreed to a minor league contract with Philadelphia on Wednesday and will report this week to Clearwater, Fla., for extended spring training.

Zambrano is known as much for his volatile outbursts and dugout confrontations with team-

mates as he is for his 132 wins over 12 seasons and a no-hitter.

With Roy Halladay and John Lannan on the disabled list, the slumping Phillies turned to Zambrano, even though he hasn’t pitched in the majors since last September with Miami.

“No promises are made.

It’s just an opportunity to add some starting pitching,” Phillies assistant general manager Scott Proefrock said.

Zambrano, 31, is 132-91

with a 3.66 ERA, including 11 seasons with the Chicago Cubs. He was 16-17 with a 4.66 ERA the last two years.

Zambrano has the right to terminate the deal if he is not added to the major league roster by July 1.

Philadelphia was among the teams with representatives who watched Zambrano throw Monday in Miami. He pitched in winter ball and played for Venezuela in the World Baseball Classic.

“It’s low risk, hopefully, high reward,” Proefrock said. When healthy, Zambrano’s talent has rarely been an issue.

It’s his temper.

He’s feuded with teammates, management and umpires in a number of high-profiles blowups.

Chicago placed Zambrano on the disqualified list with no pay and no part in team activities for 30 days in 2011. He then told team personnel he might retire.

Zambrano was placed

on the restricted list for six weeks and sent to anger management in 2010 after a verbal altercation with then-teammate Derrek Lee. In 2009, he was suspended following a tirade against an umpire in which he threw a baseball into the outfield and slammed his glove against the dugout fence.

“He has a competitive temper,” Proefrock said.

“He’s not that way in social settings.”

With Halladay and Lan-

nan out, the Phillies have turned to Tyler Cloyd and Jonathan Pettibone to fill the void. Halladay, Cole Hamels and Cliff Lee have a combined seven wins this season.

Proefrock said Zambrano was sincere in wanting to prove he keep his emotions in check — and get batters out.

“We got positive feedback from everyone who has interacted with him recently,” Proefrock said. “We’re just looking to add some depth and some experience.”

TCHS files protest over Game 3

BY DONICA PHIFER dphifer@dailycorinthian.com

TCHS has filed a protest with the Mississippi High School Activities Association regarding several calls made in the sixth and seventh inning of the Game 3 Class 4A Quarterfinals against Kosicusko — a game which the Braves lost 7-6 after a four run comeback by the Whippets.

According to a report by The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal, first-baseman

Chandler Dexter was ruled out of fair play in the sixth inning to advance runners to second and home plate.

Long states to the Journal that the first-base umpire also attempted to call the game after a verbal altercation with one of his players.

That call was over-turned by the home-plate umpire.

Following Monday’s loss, Long spoke to fans and his team about the game, the following quote is from the May 16 edition of the Tishomingo

County Vidette: “I am so sorry that this game was stolen from your children tonight. You can cheat me all day long, but it’s wrong to treat a bunch of 17-year-olds the way they have been treated tonight,” Long said.

The protest, including video footage of the call, was filed on Tuesday afternoon.

As of press time, the MSHSAA has not ruled on the Braves protest, though a positive ruling would require

Kosciusko and TCHS to repeat the game from the runner’s advance to determine the series winner. A negative ruling would keep Kosciusko as the winner of the quarterfinal series, and allow them to move on to the North Half series.

The North Half Championship is still set to begin tonight with the Whippet’s facing Lewisburg High School The winner of the series advances to next week’s Class 4A State Finals.

Calipari confident heralded recruits will mesh

BY GARY GRAVES Associated Press

LEXINGTON, Ky. — The pending arrival of eight heralded newcomers has allowed Kentucky coach John Calipari to quickly move on after losing out on top recruit Andrew Wiggins.

Calipari is confident his large recruiting class will mesh and have the Wildcats back in national championship contention.

Calipari acknowledges the challenge of melding the skills of another talented group of freshmen, one featuring six McDonald’s All-Americans.

Kentucky’s latest recruiting class is considered the best in school history, ratcheting expectations of a ninth national championship next season.

Wiggins was considered the final piece for a Wildcats’ title run, but the nation’s toprated player committed to Kansas Tuesday.

Still, Calipari’s believes his class will be successful because junior Kyle Wiltjer and sophomores Willie CauleyStein and Alex Poythress return to provide experience and leadership for the rookies. His only caveat: expecting too much from his 13-man roster, especially after Ken-

“There’s no choice. It may be ugly early and we’re playing good teams early. The point is by the end of the year, we have the talent, the size, the toughness, the skill set. ... How we bring this team together will be the challenge of this.”

John Calipari Kentucky basketball coach tucky (21-12) missed last season’s NCAA tournament with a highly touted foursome.

“It’s been laid out for them,” Calipari said Wednesday of the expectations.

“Now, the question is, will we all have the patience? Will I have the patience?

“There’s no choice. It may be ugly early and we’re playing good teams early. The point is by the end of the year, we have the talent, the size, the toughness, the skill set. ... How we bring this team together will be the challenge of this.”

Calipari eagerly embraces the mission because of the depth of talent he has attracted.

Leading Kentucky’s lat-

est group of All-Americans are 6-foot-5 twin guards Andrew and Aaron Harrison; forwards Marcus Lee and Julius Randle; guard James Young; and center Dakari Johnson. Joining them are in-state players Derek Willis, a 6-foot-9 post player, and guard Dominique Hawkins, the consensus choice as Kentucky’s top prep player.

Besides being among the nation’s best at their positions, the versatility of each one could help address several problem areas for the Wildcats. What has Calipari most encouraged is the dominant “Alpha male” characteristics displayed by players, such as the 6-10 Randle — traits that were missing from last

year’s Kentucky squad that also lacked a returning starter from the previous year’s championship team.

“This team will have maybe two” such players, Calipari said, “but that’s OK. What happens is when you have multiple (Alpha males), which we had on my team two years ago, different guys can lead at different points in the year. When you don’t have that Alpha male at all, you have to do things to try to lead yourself as a coach, and your team can never have the kind of success you want.”

Last season was definitely a cautionary tale about expecting too much from freshmen.

Big men Nerlens Noel and Cauley-Stein, guard Archie Goodwin and Poythress showed potential and even made the Southeastern Conference’s All-Freshmen team.

But as a group they didn’t come close to meeting the standard set by Anthony Davis and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist in leading Kentucky to the title two years ago.

Besides being left out of the NCAA tournament, the Wildcats lost at Robert Morris in the first round of the NIT as Please see CATS | 13

Ohio bill would fix errors in sports safety law

BY ANN SANNER Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio — State lawmakers moved Wednesday to correct a new state law that inadvertently allows coaches and referees in youth sports leagues to be criminally prosecuted for violating rules regarding players’ head injuries.

The House voted unanimously Wednesday to fix the error in the law. The Senate passed an earlier version of the bill, though it will likely sign off on the legislation.

The new law requires coaches, volunteers and officials in youth sports organizations to have players who show concussion-like symptoms sit out games or practices until they’ve been checked and cleared in writing by a doctor or licensed health care provider. Athletes can’t return to play on the same day they are removed.

Coaches are required to know more about concussions and how to spot warning signs. Parents also must review information sheets about

As of last year, at least 43 states and the District of Columbia had passed laws on concussions in youth or high school sports, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention brain injuries.

Supporters say the new rules are intended to promote safety, not impose punishments. A bill-writing error left open the door for coaches to face charges.

A spokeswoman for the Ohio Department of Health says the state isn’t aware of any criminal charges filed for noncompliance of the law since it took effect on April 26.

The way the law is currently written, parents who volunteer at sporting events could be fined or face jail time if they haven’t received the proper concussion training, said state Rep. Jay Hottinger, a Newark Republican.

Hottinger said it wasn’t the law’s intent to “potentially

turn volunteers and coaches and referees and officials into criminals.”

The measure that passed Wednesday would remove the criminal liability. The correcting bill also contains an emergency clause, so it would take effect as soon as Republican Gov. John Kasich signs it.

Hottinger stressed the importance of the bill’s swift passage, so it could preclude any possible legal problems.

As of last year, at least 43 states and the District of Columbis had passed laws on concussions in youth or high school sports, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Under the law, Ohio’s health department has to provide in-

formation about identifying and dealing with concussions.

The agency’s website includes links to free training to help coaches and referees recognize symptoms such as clumsy movements, forgetfulness, loss of consciousness, headaches or balance problems.

The legislation was spurred by evidence about the dangers of head injuries.

Doctors and health care groups that supported the measure say young athletes are most vulnerable to damaging head injuries because their brains are still developing.

Emergency room visits for sports-related traumatic brain injuries for young athletes more than doubled between 2002 and 2010, according to the Ohio Department of Health.

The law applies to youth sports organizations and schools that are in and out of the Ohio High School Athletic Association. The OHSAA adopted return-to-play rules prior to the law’s passage and those rules remain in place since they mirror what is in the law.

the top seed. That defeat capped a 4-5 run without the 6-10 defensive specialist Noel, whose season-ending knee injury in February hurt Kentucky’s tenuous tournament prospects.

Noel has entered the NBA draft and could be the No. 1 overall pick next month. Goodwin is also in the draft pool.

Fortunately for Kentucky, 7-footer CauleyStein and Poythress skipped the draft to return for more development. They are joined by Wiltjer, Jon Hood and Jarrod Polson.

“The guys that came back, should’ve come back,” Calipari said.

Signing so many scholarship players also points to a lesson the coach said he learned from not having enough last season.

The group’s arrival has energized Kentucky’s already-fervent fan base to the point of predicting an unbeaten season on social media. Calipari warned that any success will require hard work from players and especially the coaches.

Calipari said the work starts Monday for him and his staff, who will try to identify each player’s skills and coaching needs by the time they arrive on June 1 for orientation.

Summer visits from former Wildcats, particularly those playing in the NBA, should also help provide direction for the roster.

The result is an encouraging outlook that Calipari said would’ve been there no matter what Wiggins decided.

“I wish him well,” the coach said of Wiggins.

“He’s a great kid and he’s going to be a terrific basketball player. It didn’t change me any. I was confident in this team and the group we had before and after his decision.”

Astros beat Tigers, 7-5, with 2-run 9th

BY NOAH TRISTER Associated Press

DETROIT — Brandon Barnes caught Miguel Cabrera’s bases-loaded drive against the wall in right-center field for the final out, and the Houston Astros avoided a season sweep against the Detroit Tigers with a 7-5 victory Wednesday.

Carlos Corporan hit a tiebreaking double in the top of the ninth for the Astros, who lost their first six meetings with the Tigers by a combined 50-12.

Jose Veras pitched the ninth for his fifth save in seven chances. He walked two and hit a batter, but Cabrera’s drive came a few feet short of winning the game.

Hector Ambriz (1-2) got the win.

Al Alburquerque (01) walked J.D. Martinez starting the ninth, and Corporan followed with a drive to the gap in leftcenter off left-hander Phil Coke. Matt Dominguez added a sacrifice fly.

When Veras hit To-

Carlos Pena hit a run-scoring single, and after a walk to Chris Carter, Martinez hit his third homer of the year, a no-doubter to left-center that landed near Willie Horton’s retired No. 23 on the brick facade well behind the visiting bullpen at Comerica Park. rii Hunter with an 0-2 pitch, Cabrera came to the plate with a chance to tie or win the game.

The Triple Crown winner lifted a flyball to deep right-center, but Barnes — who entered as a pinch-runner in the top of the inning and stayed in to play center field — had enough time to run it down and make the catch against the out-oftown scoreboard.

Houston stopped a six-game losing streak.

The Astros are without standout second baseman Jose Altuve, on the bereavement list following the death of his grandmother.

Corporan and Martinez homered for Houston, and Avisail Garcia went deep for the Tigers.

The 21-year-old Garcia, playing center field because of Austin Jackson’s hamstring injury, hit his first major league homer in the second, a three-run shot to leftcenter that gave the Tigers a 4-1 lead.

Detroit starter Max Scherzer couldn’t hold it. He allowed a double to Jake Elmore to start the fourth, then balked him to third.

Carlos Pena hit a run-scoring single, and after a walk to Chris

Carter, Martinez hit his third homer of the year, a no-doubter to left-center that landed near Willie Horton’s retired No. 23 on the brick facade well behind the visiting bullpen at Comerica Park.

Scherzer allowed five runs and five hits in seven innings. He struck out seven and walked three.

Houston starter Dallas Keuchel allowed five runs — four earned — and seven hits in 5 2-3 innings.

Detroit tied it at 5 with an unearned run in the sixth. With two out, shortstop Marwin Gonzalez misplayed Victor Martinez’s grounder for an error.

Jhonny Peralta followed with a single, and Matt Tuiasosopo tied it with a single.

Corporan opened the scoring with a secondinning homer.

The Tigers tied it in the bottom of the inning on an RBI single by Brayan Pena, and Garcia followed with his home run.

Derby winner Orb faces Departing in Preakness

BY MIKE FARRELL Associated Press

BALTIMORE — Kentucky Derby winner Orb and Illinois Derby champion Departing played together as foals in the lush pastures of Claiborne Farm in central Kentucky.

It will be all business on Saturday, though, when the horses meet for the first time on the racetrack in the $1 million Preakness Stakes.

Orb is aiming for the second jewel of the Triple Crown, and a chance three weeks later at the Belmont Stakes to become the first horse to sweep the series since Affirmed in 1978.

Departing, it turns out, could be Orb’s main obstacle as the leading “new shooter” in the Preakness.

“New shooters” are the fresh horses who bypass the Kentucky Derby and join the Triple Crown two weeks later at Pimlico.

Departing, 4-0-1 in five starts, is the top newcomer.

“I think Departing is a pretty darn nice horse,

and he’s fresh; probably coming into the race the right way,” said Shug McGaughey, Orb’s trainer.

Preakness post positions will be drawn later Wednesday. Besides Orb and Departing, the probable lineup includes Goldencents, Govenor Charlie, Itsmyluckyday, Mylute and a trio from trainer D. Wayne Lukas: Oxbow, Will Take Charge and Titletown Five.

The fact that Orb and Departing have a prior connection adds spice to this showdown. The two rivals are homebreds, meaning the breeders retained the horses for racing instead of selling at auction. The two ownership groups are of members of racing’s aristocracy.

Cousins Ogden Mills “Dinny” Phipps and Stuart Janney III bred Orb. Ogden Phipps, Dinny’s father, ran a racing empire that included nine champions, among them Buckpasser, Easy Goer and the undefeated filly Personal Ensign.
