Owner fined $6,000 Arena board

BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian

A resolution has been reached between the City of Corinth and Dr. John Dodd regarding the demolition of the old gas station at 600 Fillmore Street.

“We believe we have a resolution to the situation,” said City Attorney Wendell Trapp, following a brief closed-door executive session meeting of the Corinth Board of Mayor and Aldermen on Wednesday night.

“It involves a $6,000 monetary component, and the property remains in the historic district.”

The situation began on April 13, when the city halted an attempt to demolish the building because the owner did not have a a required demolition permit

or clearance from the preservation committee.

The building was demolished on May 23 when a construction crew was attempting to remove asbestos, according to attorney Nick Bain, who represents the property owner.

On May 29 the Corinth Preservation Committee passed a motion encouraging the city to enforce the law on what it deemed a willful demolition of the old gas station property, which was listed as a contributing building in the Downtown Corinth Historic District.

Bain emphasized that Wednesday’s resolution of the matter does not equal an admission of guilt on his client’s part.

“Dr. Dodd never wanted to cost the taxpayers money by going to court and stringing it out in litigation, so he made a payment to the city to resolve the situation,” said Bain.

The vote for the $6,000 fine on Dodd was 3-3 by the aldermen and Corinth Mayor Tommy Irwin broke the tie. Voting for where aldermen Mike Hopkins, J.C. Hill and Chip Hill.

Voting against were aldermen Andrew “Bubba” Labas, Ben Albarracin and Michael McFall.

Although the different proposals discussed in executive session don’t have to be revealed to the public, in this case those voting against were in favor of a stiffer punishment on a property owner.

votes for liquor

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Liquor will be served at the Crossroads Arena.

The board voted 4-2 to obtain a liquor license during its regular meeting on Wednesday.

“It’s do or not do at this point,” said board chairman Dr. Hardwick Kay. Board members Sharon Franks, Penn Majors, Jane Summers and Phyllis KeithYoung all voted in favor of the motion. Sam Tull and Thom

Rogers were the two members who voted against.

“I’m opposed to it,” said Tull.

“I think we are asking for more trouble.”

“Me too,” added Rogers.

The Arena Board will have the say on which events liquor will be available.

“We will have control of when it will be served,” said Kay. “I know it is an important thing, but I think we will miss a lot of stuff if we don’t offer it Please see ARENA | 2

Woman with Corinth roots competes for Miss Tennessee

BY BRANT SAPPINGTON bsappington@dailycorinthian.com

Family and friends in Corinth will be crossing fingers and cheering loudly as one of their own competes for the title of Miss Tennessee this week in Jackson.

Miss Knoxville Rachel Turner began the journey toward the crown as preliminary competition opened on Tuesday with the interview portion and continues Wednesday, Thursday and Friday before the top 12 finalists compete Saturday for the title.

No one will be more excited, or more relieved when the nervous anticipation is over, than Turner’s mother and father, Debra Essary Turner and Michael Turner.

“We’re excited and nervous

for her,” said Debra Turner.

Debra is a native of Corinth where she has deep roots with her parents, Bobby and Inez Essary, her brothers Ronnie Essary and Gary Essary and large extended family of aunts and uncles. A huge crowd of Corinth area friends and family will be traveling with them to the finals on Saturday.

Rachel’s journey to the Miss Tennessee stage began only three years ago when her singing caught the attention of a local Miss America director in Houston, Texas.

The family lives in a suburb of Houston and Rachel, a veteran of Corinth’s Slugburger Idol and numerous other singing competitions, had recorded an album of gospel songs for her grandmother that got into

the hands of the director.

“He heard it and encouraged her to compete,” said Debra.

She quickly found success, winning the Miss Houston title and competing for two consecutive years in the Miss Texas pageant.

Her mother said it’s no surprise her daughter grew up with musical talent as she comes from a musical family in which everyone sings or plays an instrument.

“Instead of reunions, we have singings,” she said with a laugh.

Rachel recently graduated from Belmont University in Nashville with a bachelor of music degree in commercial music.

Debra said she decided this year she should compete in the

state where she’s now living and entered the Miss Knoxville competition which she won to earn her spot in the Miss Tennessee pageant.

Beyond competing for a crown and scholarship money, Rachel is using her pageant experiences to reach out to young girls struggling with issues of bullying and body image.

Through Project Beautiful in partnership with Dove’s Real Beauty campaign, the pageant winner is working to encourage young women to develop a positive body image and get past the unrealistic expectations placed on them by media and advertising.

Debra Turner said it’s a mission close to her daughter’s heart.

Spots are open for Artist Guild Gallery Art Camp

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Youngsters were busy turning colors and shapes into art.

The 13 kids were part of the first day of the Corinth Artist Guild Gallery’s annual art camp on Tuesday.

“The kids amaze me on what they can do,” said Teresa Smillie, who along with Vicki Avery, are in charge of the camp.

“They always seem to enjoy the camp.”

There are two sessions each day during the four-day camp set for June 25-28. The first

session is for those who have completed first grade through age nine and goes from 10 a.m. to noon.

The 10-13 age session is from 2-4 p.m. Tuesday through Friday.

Spots still remain for next week’s final four days.

“We have plenty of room for both sessions,” said Smillie.

CAMP CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

The retired teachers limit the class to 13 each in both sessions.

On the first day, children were working on oil pastels on black paper.

“Over the next two days they will build a picture using different shapes of recycled paper,” added Smillie.

Started in 2006, the art camp covers primary and secondary colors along with the different shapes.

Youngsters also learn the fundamental concepts in mixing and using color in drawing and painting activities.

“We teach them to use their imagination and how to see things,” said Smillie.

Art produced during the camp will be featured in an exhibit at the 507 Cruise Street gallery from July 28 to Aug. 10, and the participating

City voters brought back liquor to Corinth for

the first time since 1989 in overwhelming fashion.

Over 2,500 citizens voted for liquor’s return in December of last year.

“There are certainly pros and cons to this decision,” said Arena General Manager Tammy Genovese. “In my research our venue competition has their licenses and this move will continue to allow us to compete for

bigger events and private parties … it will also allow us another revenue source to assist in our efforts to increase our bottom line.”

Beer has been available at arena events since it opened at venues which requested it.

In other board business: • Tull was selected vice chairman of the board.

The board had been without a vice chairman since the resignation of Alva Dalton in March.

• The board has decided to do more research on an exhaust system after discussion with some members of the Board of Supervisors.

“It’s on hold, but I think we will be revisiting it again,” added Kay. • The seven-person

board learned they will receive a check of $25,277.73 from Travelers Casualty and Surety Company to replace missing funds detected by the Mississippi State Auditor’s Office in Oct. of 2011.

A total of $34,678.29 was scheduled to be headed back to the Arena, but the auditor’s office charge – just over $9,400 – dropped the amount.

Hood say he’ll subpoena Google on drugs Associated Press

JACKSON — Mississippi’s attorney general says he still considers Google’s responses to allegations that it’s not doing enough to prevent illegal online sales of drugs without prescriptions and says he’s sending out subpoenas for company documents to further his investigation.

Attorney General Jim Hood urged fellow attorneys general from other states to do the same at a meeting in Boston this week, even as Google made its fullest response to date to the allegations.

Hood, a Democrat, says the Mountain View, Calif.-based company hasn’t adequately responded to requests by himself and the National Association of Attorneys General to discuss sites that sell drugs without prescriptions, as well as that improperly link to copyrighted music, videos and other material.

“We in good faith invited Larry Page, chief executive officer of Google, to have an open, honest and transparent conversation about these important issues that are putting consumers at risk and facilitating wrongdoing, all while profiting handsomely from this dangerous behavior,” Hood said in a statement. “Google’s lack of response leaves us no choice except to issue subpoenas to Google

for possible violations of state consumer protection acts and other state and federal civil and criminal laws.”

The move could be the first step toward a criminal or civil prosecution of the company, and Hood has likened the possibility to the blockbuster litigation that a predecessor of his pursued against tobacco companies.

Hood also said he would send evidence of illegal drug purchases to the U.S. Department of Justice. Google paid $500 million to the federal government in 2011 to settle claims over ads sold to pharmacies that were illegally shipping drugs into the United States.

Hood said Google has breached the agreement it made with federal officials.

Google, in comments posted Tuesday by Legal Director Adam Barea, says it’s making it harder for illegal pharmacies to operate.

“Working together, companies in the private sector, non-profit organizations and law enforcement have made it increasingly difficult for rogue pharmacies to effectively market their illegal products online,” Barea wrote, “and operators of these sites are being forced to turn to much less effective marketing techniques

from the outskirts of the Internet.

That said, Google still doesn’t want to block search results for online drugs, as Hood has demanded.

‘Rest of the story’ after coin toss

BY MELISSA BEARDEN-MORGAN Columnist

Over the past weeks the election process has gotten a lot of publicity due to the tie-breaker/ coin toss at Rienzi.

As one of the candidates in the infamous coin toss election, I feel that the publicity this election has elicited has shed a new light on the election process and the importance of casting your vote.

On a positive note, you should go vote. It is your voice in what goes on in government.

Unless you cast a vote, your voice is not being heard. There are many men and women who have lost their lives to protect this right for fellow Americans. There is no reason for an election to be decided by a “casting of lots.” I agree with Editor Mark Boehler. Let’s leave a coin toss for football kickoffs. Go vote, it does matter!

The negative side of the recent election is the whole story of the events has not been shared with the voters. There are various papers that have spoken about the election and the results in days following that were given information by the town clerk, Elaine Pitts.

In light of all the misinformation that has been shared, I suppose the democratic process should follow all laws, rules and common courtesy, or so I would like to think. So, as Paul Harvey would say, “Here is the rest of the story…”

I, nor the other tied candidate, was there for the coin toss. I was at work on Friday, June 7 and received a phone call from Amy Norvell that a coin toss would take place at 5 p.m.

I explained to her that I could not be there and did not give permission for anyone to act on my behalf, call heads or tails, etc… When asked about this being conducted at another time, Amy stated that it would take place regardless of my absence. How democratic is that?

I have yet to be told how the process even took place from the poll workers or town clerk. I still do not know who the two voters from our municipality were, who flipped the coin or where the coin came from. All the information that was shared was that the poll workers met behind closed doors and decided among themselves who should be what side of the coin and sealed it up in an envelope.

Even more so, the poll workers who took this on to “decide the candidate’s lot” were, and still are to my best knowledge, just poll workers. None was functioning in the role of an election commissioner. They were on the ballot to be voted on for this election, but as far as I know, not sworn in at that time.

Therefore, there were no election commissioners. How does that happen?

So, what does all this mean? It’s for you the voters and citizens of Rienzi to decide. It’s not about being a sore loser. It is just about the principle of the matter and wanting things to be transparent so there are no gray areas. Isn’t that what the majority of Americans are wanting these days, government transparency?

To end on a positive note — “thank you” to all who voted and gave support for my endeavor. It has been a pleasure to serve the community and its citizens for the past eight years. I encourage each person to get out and vote in the coming elections, be an active part in the community you live in.

Let your voice be heard and tell the powers that be “you can keep the change.”

Prayer for today Father, no night is so dark that the light of Your Son, Jesus, does not penetrate the darkness that would otherwise over take us. Keep us joyful in hope, patient in affliction and faithful in prayer through Christ our Lord.

Amen.

A verse to share “With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.”

—2 Chronicles 32:8

Sound Off Policy Effective immediately, the Daily Corinthian Sound Off policy will be the same as its Letter to the Editor Policy.

Sounds Offs need to be submitted with a name, address, contact phone number and if possible, e-mail address, for author verification.

The author’s name and city of residence will be published with the Sound Off. Sound Offs will only accepted from those who wish to have their names published with their opinion. All other Letter to the Editor rules apply for Sound Offs.

After arming rebels, then what in Syria?

Two recent newspaper editorials illustrate the doublemindedness some feel about President Obama's decision to provide small arms and ammunition to Syrian rebels.

The Washington Post headlined an editorial: “No time for half-measures: Syria's rebels need a robust intervention from the Obama administration.” The New York Times took a more realistic approach: “After Arming the Rebels, Then What?

President Obama should be careful about being dragged into the brutal Syrian war.”

I'm on the side of the Times.

Some promote U.S. involvement in Syria for humanitarian reasons. That might be sufficient if the outcome advanced humanitarian concerns, but exchanging one tyrant for another is not a long-term solution. One Syrian rebel group has reportedly pledged allegiance to Osama bin Laden's replacement, al-Qaida leader Sheik Ayman al-Zawahri. Deposing a mass murderer in favor of jihadists committed to “holy war” against America and the West is like choosing a firing squad over the guillotine.

The Washington Post reported the murder of a 14-year-old boy by Syrian rebels. The boy's crime?

When he “was asked to bring one of his customers some coffee,” the Post writes, “he reportCal edly refused, Thomas saying, 'Even if (Prophet) Columnist Mohammed comes back to life, I won't.'” A group of Islamist rebels took this as an insult to Islam. Are these the rebels President Obama's backing?

The United States has a bad track record in the Middle East. President Jimmy Carter helped topple the shah of Iran. Now the shah's replacements, in concert with Hezbollah, writes ABC News, “have been helping the Syrian regime of President Bashar Assad...” Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei recently called Israel a “cancerous tumor” and vowed Iran's support to any nation or group that attacks it. Iran is intent on acquiring nuclear weapons. The Independent newspaper in Britain reports that Iran has pledged to send 4,000 Iranian Revolutionary Guards to Syria to support President Assad.

In Egypt, Mohamed Morsi, the Muslim Brotherhood candidate, won the last elec-

tion after the U.S. supported the ouster of Hosni Mubarak.

The outcome in Libya, following U.S. support of rebels opposed to Moammar Gadhafi, is unlikely to be pleasant should that nation's draft constitution based on Sharia law be adopted.

The Obama administration reportedly is ready to consider a U.N. request to resettle some Syrian refugees in the United States. “...part of an international effort that could bring thousands of Syrians to American cities and towns,” writes the Los Angeles Times. Can we be sure a number of them won't be jihadists?

For too long, American involvement in the Middle East has employed the wrong formula in the mistaken belief that we can change the thinking of radical Islamists. Many administrations have pressured Israel in the misguided and unjustified hope that this would produce a change in outlook and a reset in religious fanaticism. It hasn't. In fact, our “reach-out” efforts are seen as weakness in much of the Islamic world.

Arab and Muslim peoples have been at war with other nations and each other for centuries. The two major factions of Islam — Sunni and Shia — are in constant con-

flict over which one is Prophet Mohammed's legitimate heir. The “infidel” West can't help settle any of this and is more likely to unite the warring factions against us, as it has in the past.

Add to this a scenario that resembles the Cold War. Russia is “all-in,” supplying anti-ship cruise missiles to President Assad's regime.

Moscow, according to the Wall Street Journal, has deployed at least a dozen warships to patrol waters near the Russian naval base in the Syrian city of Tartus. President Obama's token gesture of small arms and ammunition is the equivalent of dipping one's toe in the Mediterranean Sea and calling it swimming.

As in so many other instances, President Obama is, according to the Daily Telegraph, “leading from behind in Syria -- and can't see where he is going.”

The president wants credit for withdrawing American forces from Iraq and Afghanistan, but with Syria he is involving the U.S. in another war that can't be “won,” at least not in a way that will advance American interests.

Loss of trust in administration long overdue Amid all the heated crosscurrents of debate about the National Security Agency’s massive surveillance program, there is a growing distrust of the Obama administration that makes weighing the costs and benefits of the NSA program itself hard to assess.

The belated recognition of this administration’s contempt for the truth, for the American people and for the Constitution of the United States, has been long overdue.

But what if the NSA program has in fact thwarted terrorists and saved many American lives in ways that cannot be revealed publicly?

Nothing is easier than saying that you still don’t want your telephone records collected by the government.

But the first time you have to collect the remains of your loved ones, after they have been killed by terrorists, telephone records can suddenly seem like a small price to pay to prevent such things.

The millions of records of phone calls collected every day virtually guarantee that nobody has the time to listen to them all, even if NSA could get a judge to authorize listening to what is said in all these calls, instead of just keeping a record of who

called whom.

Moreover, Congressional oversight by members of both political parties limits Thomas what Barack Sowell Obama or any other presiColumnist dent can get away with.

Are these safeguards foolproof? No. Nothing is ever foolproof.

As Edmund Burke said, more than two centuries ago: “Constitute government how you please, infinitely the greater part of it must depend upon the exercise of the powers which are left at large to the prudence and uprightness of ministers of state.”

In other words, we do not have a choice whether to trust or not to trust government officials. Unless we are willing to risk anarchy or terrorism, the most we can do is set up checks and balances within government — and be a lot more careful in the future than we have been in the past when deciding whom to elect.

Anyone old enough to remember the Cuban missile crisis of 1962, when President John F. Kennedy took this country to the brink of nuclear war with the Soviet Union, may remember that there

was nothing like the distrust and backlash against later presidents, whose controversial decisions risked nothing approaching the cataclysm that President Kennedy’s decision could have led to.

Even those of us who were not John F. Kennedy supporters, and who were not dazzled by the glitter and glamour of the Kennedy aura, nevertheless felt that the president of the United States was someone who knew much more than we did about the realities on which all our lives depended.

Whatever happened to that feeling? Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon happened — and both were shameless liars. They destroyed not only their own credibility, but the credibility of the office.

Even when Lyndon Johnson told us the truth at a crucial juncture during the Vietnam war — that the Communist offensive of 1968 was a defeat for them, even as the media depicted it as a defeat for us — we didn’t believe him.

In later years, Communist leaders themselves admitted that they had been devastated on the battlefield. But, by then it was too late. What the Communists lost militarily on the ground in Vietnam they won politically in

the American media and in American public opinion.

More than 50,000 Americans lost their lives winning battles on the ground in Vietnam, only to have the war lost politically back home. We seem to be having a similar scenario unfolding today in Iraq, where soldiers won the war, only to have politicians lose the peace, as Iraq now increasingly aligns itself with Iran.

When Barack Obama squanders his own credibility with his glib lies, he is not just injuring himself during his time in office. He is inflicting a lasting wound on the country as a whole.

But we the voters are not blameless. Having chosen an untested man to be president, on the basis of rhetoric, style and symbolism, we have ourselves to blame if we now have only a choice between two potentially tragic fates — the loss of American lives to terrorism or a further dismantling of our freedoms that has already led many people to ask: “Is this still America?”

Nation Briefs Associated Press

Board concerned about NSA surveillance WASHINGTON — In an interview this week with television talk show host Charlie Rose, Obama said he planned to meet with the oversight board and “set up and structure a national conversation” about the NSA's surveillance programs and also “about the general problem of these big data sets because this is not going to be restricted to government entities.”

The board's mandate includes privacy as well as national security concerns. In theory, it could veer into questions about how Internet companies such as Google and Facebook as well as hundreds of other datamining companies deal with privacy and how government might regulate those entities.

But as Sharon Bradford Franklin, a senior counsel at the Constitution Project, a bipartisan civil liberties watchdog group, and other civil liberties experts said, the board's role is largely advisory, identifying problems and suggesting possible solutions.

The board has existed since 2004, first as part of the executive branch, then, after a legislative overhaul that took effect in 2008, as an independent board of presidential appointees reporting to Congress.

Hindered by Obama administration delays and then resistance from Republicans in Congress, the new board was not fully functional until May, when Medine was confirmed.

“They've been in startup mode a long time,” Franklin said. “With all the concerns about the need for a debate on the issue of surveillance, this is a great opportunity for them to get involved.”

“They have statutory authority in two main areas,” Franklin said. “One is evaluating whether safeguards on civil liberties are adequate and the other is in transparency — informing the public and ensuring the government is more transparent.”

Fed: Closer to slowing bond purchases WASHINGTON — Chairman Ben Bernanke ended weeks of speculation Wednesday by saying the Federal Reserve will likely slow its bondbuying program later this year and end it next year if the economy continues to improve.

The Fed's bond purchases have helped keep long-term interest rates at record lows. A pullback in the Fed's purchases would likely lead to higher rates on mortgages and other consumer and business loans.

Bernanke said the reductions would occur in “measured steps” and that the purchases could end by the middle of next year. By then, he said he thought unemployment would be around 7 percent.

The chairman likened any reduction in the Fed's $85 billion-a month in bond purchases to a driver letting up on a gas pedal rather than applying the brakes.

He stressed that even after the Fed ends its bond purchases, it will continue to maintain its vast investment portfolio, which will help keep long-term rates down.

The ultra-low borrowing rates the Fed has

engineered have been credited with helping fuel a housing comeback, support economic growth, drive stocks to record highs and restore the wealth America lost to the recession.

Anticipating higher rates, investors reacted Wednesday by selling both stocks and bonds.

The Dow Jones industrial average closed down 206 points. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note shot up to 2.33 percent from 2.21 percent.

“There's fear you'll see an expanding economy, which has a tendency to push up interest rates,” said Jack Ablin, chief investment officer of BMO Private Bank.

Some investors worry that higher rates will cause investors to shift money out of stocks and into higher-yielding bonds. Others fear that the economy might not be ready to absorb higher rates and that consumers and businesses could pull back on borrowing.

The Fed issued an updated economic forecast, which sketched a brighter outlook. It said the “downside risks to the outlook” had diminished since fall.

The more upbeat forecast helps explain why the Fed thinks record-low rates may soon no longer be necessary. Low rates help fuel economic growth. But they also raise the risk of high inflation and dangerous bubbles in assets like stocks or real estate.

Bill could reduce illegal immigration WASHINGTON — Illegal immigration into the United States would decrease by only 25 percent under a far-reaching Senate immigration bill, according to an analysis by the Congressional Budget Office that also finds the measure reduces federal deficits by billions.

Supporters of the legislation moving toward a vote on the Senate floor seized on the deficitreduction findings by Congress' nonpartisan scorekeeping agency, along with the agency's forecast that the immigration measure would boost economic growth as millions of workers join the workforce and begin to pay taxes.

But the CBO report also found that the bill, which takes steps to prevent people coming to the U.S. illegally while offering the hope of citizenship to some 11 million people already here without authorization, does not come close to end-

ing illegal immigration.

Indeed some aspects of the bill would make the problem worse, the report said.

“Unauthorized residents would find it harder both to enter the country and to find employment while unauthorized. However, other aspects of the bill would probably increase the number of unauthorized residents — in particular, people overstaying their visas issued under the new programs for temporary workers,” the CBO report said, adding that the net annual flow of unauthorized residents would decrease by about 25 percent compared to current law.

That would amount to 2.5 million fewer immigrants coming to the U.S. illegally over the next 20 years than would happen under current law, the CBO said.

Conservative activists were circulating the finding Wednesday morning.

But a spokesman for Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., a lead author of the immigration bill, questioned that CBO conclusion.

“The report does not question the toughness of the bill's border security reforms, it just assumes that some immigrants who enter the country legally will overstay their visas,” said Schumer spokesman Brian Fallon. “But the bill creates a system to track people who overstay their visas and prevents employers from hiring them, so the number is likely to be much lower than CBO projects.”

Senators seek cost cuts for F-35 fighter jet WASHINGTON — Senators sought cost-cutting opportunities Wednesday in the Pentagon's $400 billion program for the next-generation F-35, a fighter jet with a troubled testing record that military leaders said America couldn't afford not to build.

Chairing the hearing, Sen. Dick Durbin lamented that the F-35 already has cost taxpayers billions more than what Congress signed up for more than a decade ago. The Illinois Democrat asked military leaders to justify costs that have soared more than 70 percent and estimates that the entire program could exceed $1 trillion over 50 years.

“The Joint Strike Fighter program has had more than its share of problems over the last decade,” Durbin said. “Frankly, its history reads like a textbook on how not to run a major acquisition effort.”

Hood: Medicaid can’t be run by executive order JACKSON — Mississippi’s attorney general says the governor does not have legal authority to operate the Division of Medicaid by executive order.

Attorney General Jim Hood’s nonbinding opinion, issued Wednesday, contradicts claims by Republican Gov. Phil Bryant and could increase pressure on Bryant to call the Legislature into special session to reauthorize the state Medicaid program.

Unless something changes, the program is on track to end after June 30, putting health care at risk for 644,000 Mississippians.

Hood, a Democrat, issued his opinion in response to questions from Democratic lawmakers.

His opinions are nonbinding but provide guidance for state leaders.

During the legislative session that ended in April, lawmakers locked up in a partisan dispute over whether to expand Medicaid. They did not reauthorize the program or set its budget.

Body found in Laurel house identified LAUREL — Laurel police have identified a body found about two weeks ago in an abandoned home as 47-yearold Charles Dwayne Barnett of Covington County.

Barnett’s body was found June 4 in the house.

“Through our investigation and help from the public, we were able to find a family member,” Police Sgt. Earl Reed told The Chronicle (http://bit. ly/15jnv6A ).

“We compared Barnett’s mother’s DNA with DNA from the body, and it came back a match,” he said.

Reed said the death remains an open investigation.

Reed said a pathologist is continuing to work on the autopsy because the body was decomposed and the cause of death has not been determined.

“Right now we know that the body had no signs of trauma; however, the coroner said a cause of death has not been determined,” Reed said. “Right now, we are waiting on the toxicology report before a cause can be determined.”

Reed said no one had filed a missing

person’s report concerning Barnett; however, people had seen him in the area where his body was located.

“He reportedly came to Laurel the Saturday before Mother’s Day for an event. He went to the (Mother’s Day) blues festival on Sunday and never went back to Covington County,” Reed said. “His family was use to him staying off for some days. When they began to get worried, they started calling his phone but got no answer.”

Reed said Barnett’s cellphone was found in his pocket when the body was discovered.

Oxford police to crack down on cyclists OXFORD — The Oxford Police Department is going to enforce those traffic laws affecting cyclists, motorcyclists and other means of alternative transportation.

Assistant Police Chief Kevin Stark tells the Oxford Eagle that cyclists are expected to follow the same rules of the road as any other vehicle, even though the vehicle doesn’t have four wheels.

“We’re going to have to take a proactive stance on rules and regulations involving cyclists,” Stark said. “We have been getting an increased amount of complaints from walkers and drivers about bicycles.”

Complaints include cyclists running through red lights, passing cars on the right in an intersection and not stop-

ping at stop signs.

“The rules of the road apply to bicycles as well as motor vehicles,” Stark said. “We want to make sure the road is safe for everyone.”

Cyclists can get traffic violations for just about anything a motor vehicle can and some of these tickets come with hefty fines.

“Our cars have increased. Our bicycles and cyclists have increased. It’s become a road-sharing issue,” Stark said.

Mississippi state law requires all drivers, bicycles, motorcycles and automobiles to follow the same laws and Stark said Oxford police will just be enforcing the laws that are, and have been, on the books.

“But we don’t want to just go out there and write a bunch of tickets without educating people first,” he said.

“That’s out first goal — just to inform and educate the public so everyone is safer on the roads.”

Sentencing rescheduled in shopping case OXFORD — A federal judge has rescheduled for July 15 the sentencing for former narcotics agent Searn Lynch, who has pleaded guilty to lying to obtain prescriptions for pain medication.

The Oxford Eagle reports that U.S. District Senior Judge Neal B. Biggers Jr. on June 11 granted the continuance motion sought by Lynch’s attorney.

Second West Nile case reported for 2013 JACKSON — The Mississippi State Department of Health is reporting the second human case of West Nile virus for 2013.

The case was reported in Forrest County. In April of this year, one case was reported in Madison County.

The MSDH only reports laboratoryconfirmed cases to the public.

In 2012, Mississippi had 247 WNV cases and five deaths.

MSDH State Epidemiologist Dr. Thomas Dobbs says Mississippi is entering into the highrisk West Nile season and the state typically sees more human cases in July, August and September than in other months.

Health officials say Mississippians should take precautions to protect themselves from mosquitoes.

Man loses postconviction appeal JACKSON — The state Court of Appeals has upheld a Copiah County judge’s dismissal of a post-conviction petition filed by David Carter.

Carter argued his guilty plea to murder was involuntary and his attorney should have done a better job.

A judge denied Carter’s petition in 2012.

Carter, of Slidell, La., was sentenced to life in prison after pleading guilty in the shooting death of 30-year-old Larry Mazie. Authorities say Mazie was found in his rural Copiah County home on July 26, 2011.

The Appeals Court ruled Tuesday that Carter provided no evidence to support his arguments for a new trial.

The Appeals Court said during his sentencing Carter told the trial judge that he understood the crime and sentence he had agreed to.

Deaths lease says the services are alleged to not actually have been rendered

by Wilson as she was working elsewhere during the same hours.

If convicted, Wilson faces up to 35 years in prison and $350,000 in fines.

PASCAGOULA — Pascagoula will go smoke free in late July.

as a child and made fun of as a young man. He keeps trying to help others learn about working together. He wants to wait to use his abilities to assist and lend a helping hand to humanity. He is trying to lead by example. Do the right thing and maybe others will follow?

Meanwhile, some bad guys from the former planet Krypton are looking for Kal-El in order to find some information he brought with him from Krypton. Now these guys are not only bad, but they have abilities humans on earth do not have.

These evil ones really want this particular item.

The reader will have to see the movie or know a lot of about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Man of Steelâ&#x20AC;? to understand the Krypton bad guysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; motivation.

These evil Kryptonites will go to extreme measures to get their way. As usual, they want power,

and the object they are seeking will give them supremacy. When one has power, the money will follow.

Of course, Kent is forced into action when it comes time to protect those in need, becoming the hero we all know as Superman, The overall story at the beginning was semiinteresting.

However, the second half has more wild, over-the-top, extreme action to last the viewer for a long time. I thought it was about to be over when the action slowed for a few minutes, but noooo . . . it started again for another long scenario of explosions, fights and jumbled-up destruction.

Superman has to fight to save the day like Mighty Mouse did in the cartoons only these fights go on and on and on. It is difficult to understand why that much

Enough of them dad-gummed dioxide crystals

BY JIMMY REED Columnist

My friend Noel said his friend Ronnie could run circles around me telling tall tales. One look at Ronnie, and I knew he was right. His is the perfect yarn spinnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face â&#x20AC;&#x201D; unprepossessing, unassuming, and as innocent as a newborn babeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.

Listeners believe a man with a face like that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ronnie, our mutual friend Noel and I were having breakfast together not long ago, as we often do, at which time we solve all the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s problems, and he gave me a few snippets of your rainmaker story. Tell me the rest of it.â&#x20AC;?

Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the yarn Ronnie spun.

A bunch of Mississippi Delta cotton farmers were in a panic. Their crops had come up to a perfect stand, and with a little rain, the plants would grow quickly. But no rain came. The dry spell became a drought.

In town one day, the farmers were commiserating over cups of coffee, when a feller settinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; nearby spoke up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can help â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a rainmaker.â&#x20AC;? The farmers asked how much he charged. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It depends on how many bags of dioxide crystals yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all want me to spread from my airplane,â&#x20AC;? he answered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what I use to salt the clouds, which make them suck in moisture, which initiates conden-

sation â&#x20AC;&#x201D; rain, in other words. The plane will haul three bags, but one bag, which runs $500, does the trick. I wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make no guarantees about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll happen with more than one bag.

Might cause too much rain.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shoot, one farmer answered. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As dry as it is, ainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t no such thing as too much rain. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pay for two bags.â&#x20AC;?

The next day, the rainmaker pulled up with a tall cylinder standing on a tripod, attached to a butane bottle, and placed it where two field roads crossed each other. â&#x20AC;&#x153;By mid-afternoon thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a few clouds building. When I swoop down over yâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;all, light the

jet in the cylinder. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll shoot up a hunnerd foot flame. Then, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll fly above the clouds and sprinkle the dioxide crystals. The flame and the crystals work together.â&#x20AC;?

At four oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock, the farmers heard the airplane coming and lit the flame. The pilot wagged his wings at them, did a few dippity-doos, ascended above the clouds, and spread the crystals.

Toward sundown, the sky was as clear as could be, and the farmers were certain a gypsy had gypped them. But along about midnight, thunder and lightning like that which the Lord has in mind for Judgment Day set in, and a roaring, torrential rain poured down

without cease. This was no normal rain â&#x20AC;Ś it was even more than a gully washer, or a chunk floater, or a frog drowner â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it had all the makings of a levee breaker!

When daylight came, the farmers huddled around the burner and stared at their flooded fields. Only a few cotton plants peaked above the muddy water.

Finally, one farmer spoke up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank God we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ask that feller to spray out three bags of them dad-gummed dioxide crystals.â&#x20AC;?

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Watch for Crossroads Magazine Bridal edition coming in the Daily Corinthian on Saturday, June 29.

Mom should keep kids away from their gun-toting grandpa DEAR ABBY: The letter you printed from “Gun-Shy in South Carolina” (March 5), about the antics of her gun-toting, alcoholic father-in-law, caught my attention. I’m a former mental health clinician and program inspector. I discussed that letter with a friend who is a psychiatrist.

“Grandpa” has probably already violated a municipal ordinance regarding discharging a firearm in corporate limits. I agree with you that he has endangered his grandchildren. My friend advised that, according to the local interpretation of mental health statutes, Grandpa might be eligible for involuntary commitment and evaluation in a psychiatric facility.

He could be disarmed by the police, if necessary.

“Gun-Shy” should heed her motherly instincts, stay home and refuse to visit Grandpa until he enters treatment. Otherwise there’s a high probability that she will mourn the loss of one or more dead children.

Grandpa seems to think that booze and guns make him brave.

A brave person is a military medic, a member of the U.S. Coast Guard and the thousands of first responders who demonstrate their bravery by saving human lives, not threatening them. In fact, many Medal of Honor recipients earn the award not by the number of enemies killed, but lives saved.

-- RESPONSIBLE GUN OWNER

IN PENNSYLVANIA D E A R RESPONSIBLE: I agree. Some readers felt I should have tougher Abigail been in my reVan Buren sponse, and that Gun-Shy Dear Abby and her children should not visit Grandpa at all. Failure to act on her fears is called child endangerment and could result in the children being taken away. Readers let me have it with both barrels: DEAR ABBY: Your answer to “Gun-Shy” was off the mark! As a vet and former law enforcement officer, I think the whole family is in “wimp” mode. For adults to watch a drunk adult fire a gun in the air around his family and not call 911 was ignorant and dangerous. ALL states have laws about firing guns in the air (illegal), firing guns while drunk (illegal), unsecured loaded weapons (illegal), and firing guns around children in a home environment (illegal). That jerk should have been arrested! -- SMOKEY IN FLORIDA DEAR ABBY: Thank you for reminding your readers that when someone shoots a gun into the air, the bullet comes down somewhere. A child near my hometown

died last New Year’s Eve when she stepped outside with her grandmother to watch the fireworks and a bullet fell to earth and lodged in her brain. The police believe the gun may have been fired from a few miles away. -- CHRISTINA IN MARYLAND DEAR ABBY: Why didn’t you suggest a family intervention for the grandfather’s alcoholism?

The family could be helped by going to Al-Anon to learn how to detach with love from his disease.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

Some say the iris gets narrower as you get older, but your vista is only increasing. Don’t forget to look up from your day-to-day to scan the horizon of your possibilities.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

You will be tempted to wonder “where did I go wrong,” but what you really should be asking is “how did I go right,” because you’re much better off precisely because things didn’t work out as planned.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

It’s like the forces are aligning to make you more creative. Funds or other resources that were previously available may be limited for unforeseen reasons, and this is a blessing in disguise.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

You’ll receive the kind of recognition that people strive for, and it will bring the good feeling you expected for a time. Enjoy it and soak it up before everyone goes back to minding their own business.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).

You’ve spent too much time of

late listening to the music of your own thoughts. Open up and engage with the playlists of others’ minds, and discover some new music.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

You give people the proper amount of time for their role in your life. For someone who wants to be more important to you, this will not be enough.

Now you have a decision to make. How close do you want to be?

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

You’ve known places you hadn’t technically visited. When you got there, nothing seemed surprising and you knew the layout.

When it happens again today, pay closer attention to what it means.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

It’s like you’re shopping in another country where the numbers on the price tags mean nothing to you because you don’t know the exchange rate. You appreciate the value of things even if you don’t fully understand what

they are.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When you try to find out what the plan is, it becomes clear that there will be no plan unless you come up with one.

You’re qualified to be the “man” with the plan.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Dismay over unhappiness in family relations will turn into delight when you lend a sympathetic ear and make it clear to a special someone that you’re in their corner.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have a particular kind of charge to you today, and the emotional impression you make will linger after you’ve left. It’s worth giving some thought to how people will feel because they mingled with you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).

Your luck will be uncanny. You’ll wander into the right people at the right time. You’ll be handed opportunity -- and mostly because you ask for it with smiling eyes.

Who Owns Whom?

Best Hitters vs. One Opponent*

• Even though Washington’s Gio Gonzalez gave up a run at Cleveland last Friday night in the Nationals’ 2-1 loss, he didn’t figure in the decision, which leaves him undefeated vs. the Tribe for his career. In seven starts now, he’s 5-0 with a 0.81 ERA. • Like many outstanding pitchers before Shelby Miller of St. Louis — Steve Carlton and Tom Glavine come to mind — if hitters are going to get to him, they better erupt early.

The young righthander’s ERA is a robust 5.54 in the first inning, then drops to a miniscule 1.58 afterwards. Opponents are batting .357 in the first frame, then just .175 later.

Adam Dunn, Chicago Very little has gone right for Dunn this season, and the White Sox have struggled of late. But last week, the Big Donkey socked four home runs and drove home eight. He began the week with a four-hit game, and by hitting .389 he raised his season average from .165 to .183.

Corey Kluber, Cleveland The Indians are struggling to stay around .500 and Kluber played a huge role last week. He allowed just one run over eight innings in a win at Texas, then shut down Washington over eight frames in a 2-0 win over the Nats. In 16 innings, he gave up 13 hits, three walks and only one run.

Carlos Gonzalez, Colorado Without running buddy Troy Tulowitzki for the next month or so, it may be difficult for CarGo to maintain his strong season. Last week, he batted .476 with a 1.617 OPS, three home runs, eight RBIs and six runs. His six extrabase hits led the senior circuit.

Yovani Gallardo, Milwaukee After giving up multiple runs in each of his last nine starts, Gallardo found some magic last week. In road starts at Miami and Cincinnati, the righthander didn’t allow a run over 14 innings. He gave up seven hits, walked three and struck out nine.

Albert Almora, Chicago Cubs Last summer, the Cubs made Almora the sixth overall pick in the draft, and the center fielder hasn’t disappointed. While he hasn’t developed any power to this point, Almora progressed through a couple of levels last season and is batting .402 at Kane County.

June 15, 1964 The Chicago Cubs trade Jack Spring, Paul Toth and Lou Brock to St. Louis for Doug Clemens, Ernie Broglio and Bobby Shantz. Pitchers Broglio and Shantz combined to go 7-20 for the Cubs, while Clemens hit .238 in 182 games. Spring logged three innings for the Cardinals and Brock accumulated 2,713 hits and 888 stolen bases for St. Louis.

June 24, 1979 Rickey Henderson makes his debut for the Oakland A’s, batting leadoff and playing left field. He goes 2-for-4 with a double and steals a base. Matt Keough pitches a complete game in the A’s loss, dropping his record to 0–9. In the second game of the doubleheader, Henderson is 0-for-4.

Best 25-and-under Team If you were trying to win a championship this season, would you rather have youthful talent? Or seasoned experience? Consider a roster of players age 25 and younger vs. a roster of veterans age 35 and older. Here’s my 25man roster of players who were age 25 or younger on Opening Day (March 31). Next week, I’ll showcase the veterans. This lineup and roster are based not only on the ability to win in 2013, but also in the foreseeable future.

CATCHER Sal Perez, Kansas City The Kansas City backstop should be in the conversation about the best catcher in the American League regardless of age. Defensively and offensively, he is quickly developing into a building block for the Royals.

Buster Posey turned 26 on March 27, just prior to the start of the season.

FIRST BASE Paul Goldschmidt, Arizona The Diamondbacks’ first baseman joins Carlos Gonzalez and Troy Tulowitzki of Colorado as the only three players in the NL with a .300 average, 15 homers and 50 RBIs. SECOND BASE Jason Kipnis, Cleveland Kipnis turned 26 on April 3, just four days after our self-imposed cutoff. He is tied with Carlos Santana for the most runs on the Indians and second behind his teammate in total bases.

THIRD BASE Manny Machado, Baltimore Still just 20 years old, Machado is quickly becoming a perennial MVP candidate. He leads the AL in hits and doubles.

SHORTSTOP Didi Gregorius, Arizona This is an extremely deep position.

Last season Starlin Castro and Elvis Andrus were our picks, but both are surpassed by the future of this rising star in Arizona.

11-15

Athlon Sports

Baltimore’s Manny Machado is quickly becoming one of the top stars in the game — of any age.

LEFT FIELD Yasiel Puig, Los Angeles Dodgers I know it’s a small sample, but over his first 50 plate appearances, Puig has reached base 25 times. And his game is still developing.

CENTER FIELD Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels The exciting outfielder took the majors by storm last season and hasn’t slowed down this summer. He will be a star for several years to come.

RIGHT FIELD Bryce Harper, Washington If Trout or Machado don’t beat Harper to the punch, he may become the first $300 million player. A knee injury has slowed him this season, but it’s a minor derailment.

STARTING PITCHERS Clayton Kershaw, Los Angeles Dodgers The Dodgers’ lefty is on his way to another Cy Young-type season with a 0.969 WHIP and 1.84 ERA. Matt Harvey, New York Mets Harvey is 5-1 and has a 2.68 ERA in his eight no-decisions. He is a candidate to start the All-Star Game for the NL.

Shelby Miller, St. Louis The righthander carried a 1.91 ERA through his first 12 starts this season.

He has 91 Ks and has allowed just 79 hits and walks.

Stephen Strasburg, Washington Perhaps the most highly acclaimed of the starters, he joins Kershaw as one of two repeat members in the rotation from last year’s 25-and-under squad.

Mike Minor, Atlanta The first-place Braves are 11-3 when Minor takes the mound. The lefty’s 0.971 WHIP is fifth in the NL. BULLPEN LONG RELIEF Chris Sale, Chicago White Sox The lanky lefty has a 0.902 WHIP this season, but I think the difference is that Sale may not have the staying power of the five at the front.

SETUP Aroldis Chapman, Cincinnati As difficult as it is to believe, Chapman is still just 25. He’s not as dominating as he was last season, but there are many strong seasons to come for the Cuban Missile.

Trevor Rosenthal, St. Louis The St. Louis setup man blew his first two save opportunities this season, but has reeled off 16 holds and a win since.

Addison Reed, Chicago White Sox Just three AL closers have more saves, and they play for winning teams with regular save opportunities.

CLOSER Craig Kimbrel, Atlanta The Braves’ closer is a repeat at this position and doesn’t turn 26 until next May. BENCH Wilin Rosario, Colorado He brings a power bat, but not much defensively.

Freddie Freeman, Atlanta Freeman is handy with the glove, has 20 multi-hit games this season and has been held hitless just 14 times.

Anthony Rizzo, Chicago Cubs His numbers don’t necessarily reflect it now, but Rizzo has a bright future.

Jean Segura, Milwaukee The Milwaukee shortstop is second only to Tulowitzki in the NL. Elvis Andrus, Texas Defensively, Andrus has few peers.

Giancarlo Stanton, Miami With power to spare, Stanton’s production is hampered by his team’s inept lineup.

Nolan Arenado, Colorado The third sacker has terrific range and wields a handy bat.

PAINFUL TO OMIT Eric Hosmer, Kansas City; Jose Altuve, Houston; Jedd Gyorko, San Diego; Kyle Seager, Seattle; Jose Iglesias, Boston; Jurickson Profar, Texas; Starlin Castro, Chicago Cubs; Domonic Brown, Philadelphia; Justin Upton, Atlanta; Matt Moore, Tampa Bay; Patrick Corbin, Arizona; Lance Lynn, St. Louis; Madison Bumgarner, San Francisco; Jose Fernandez, Miami; Gerrit Cole, Pittsburgh; Jeff Locke, Pittsburgh

Since the beginning of 2011, there are six players who have 80 or more home runs.

Miguel Cabrera leads the way with 92. Can you name the other five? (Hint: Albert Pujols is not one of them.)

Record for the Texas Rangers without their second baseman and leadoff hitter Ian Kinsler in the lineup.

Kinsler made his last start on May 16, before returning over the weekend. The Rangers were 27-14 prior to his injury.

.138

Opponents batting average off of Texas closer Joe Nathan. That is the lowest batting average against for any current closer.

Athlon Sports

TRIVIA ANSWER: Jose Bautista, 85; Curtis Granderson, 85; Ryan Braun, 83; Adrian Beltre, 82; Prince Fielder, 80.

• Three players of note — Yasiel Puig of the Dodgers, Gerrit Cole of Pittsburgh and Seattle’s Mike Zunino — have made their major league debuts in June. And a fourth, Wil Myers, was called up by Tampa Bay to begin this week. Clubs are now participating in the annual ritual of playing chicken with one another over service time for their prized prospects. About this time every year, clubs begin calling up players in hopes that they have waited long enough to avoid their young stars earning enough service time and thus qualifying as “Super 2” players. All players with three years of service time qualify for arbitration (and thus earn significant raises). The wrinkle is that the top 22 percent of players (ranked by service time) with less than three years also qualify for arbitration, and subsequently will enter free agency a year earlier as well. So, keeping prospects in the minors until midseason improves a team’s chances to keep a player under contractual control for an extra season. In the case of Puig, the Dodgers have him signed through 2018, presumably his last season before he would qualify for free agency, so his clock is less significant. But if Cole, Zunino and Myers aren’t in the top 22 percent of service time, the clubs will essentially have a “free” year of service this season. And with salaries jumping to the $3-4 million range once players are arbitration eligible, the savings are significant.

Young immediately takes his place in Mets’ lineup

BY PAUL NEWBERRY The Associated Press

ATLANTA — Center fielder Eric Young Jr. caught a flight to Atlanta in time to lead off for the New York Mets on Wednesday night.

He arrived at Turner Field shortly before batting practice after being acquired late Tuesday from Colorado for righthander Collin McHugh.

Young was immediately put in the lineup against the first-place Braves,

looking to build on the momentum of a doubleheader sweep the day before.

“First game, center field, leading off, so I have no complaints,” Young said.

Manager Terry Collins said the Mets need a boost at the top of the order, and he’s hopeful Young can provide it. New York had the NL’s lowest team batting average (.227), and only three teams in the league had scored fewer runs.

“He’s a switch-hitter and we’re probably going to play him quite often and see what he brings to the table,” Collins said. “Hopefully he brings that speed and that energy that he brought to Colorado and help get us going offensively.”

Young was hitting .242 with one homer, six RBIs and eight stolen bases when Colorado designated him for assignment last week, a move that caught him off guard.

“I was in shock,” Young said. “I don’t think anybody can actually prepare for that situation, but you understand it’s part of the business. It actually could be a blessing in disguise for me because I get a chance to be here.”

He was especially excited to get dealt to the Mets.

The 28-year-old Young is a native of New Jersey, so this feels like a bit of a homecoming.

“Pretty much the whole state’s been calling me,”

he said. “I’m excited right now.”

Young is looking forward to the chance to play every day for the Mets, who have been desperate to get more offensive production from their outfield.

“As a player, that’s all you can ask for, is a chance to play, go out there not worrying, and put your best foot forward,” he said.

Since being designated for assignment, Young had been working out in Arizona, where his wife’s family

is from.

“I certainly don’t know what went on in Colorado.

Don’t care. He’s here and we’re going to try to see if he can help us,” said Collins, who called Young the first true leadoff hitter New York has had since Jose Reyes.

“It’s always an important spot on every team,” the manager said. “You see those leadoff hitters who have a high on-base percentage, how successful their teams are.”

4 BMC players earn all-conference Blue Mountain Athletics

BLUE MOUNTAIN, Miss. — Following the best season in the three-year history of the Blue Mountain College softball program, four Toppers were recently named to the All-TranSouth Athletic Conference team for 2013: Kimmy Nicholson, a senior outfielder from Nettleton, led the conference with 20 stolen bases in 22 attempts. Nicholson, who hit

.258 for the season, had 40 hits, including 5 doubles and a triple. She also scored 40 runs and had 16 runs batted in.

Hardwick Brooke Denton, a junior from Pontotoc, hit .319 with 6 homers and 19

RBI, and also compiled an 8-6 record on the mound with a 3.23 earned run average, 64 strikeouts, and an opposing batting average of .262.

Whitney Hardwick, a sophomore from Alcorn Central, compiled a .356 batting average, had a .514 slugging percentage and .410 on base percentage, along with 9 doubles, a triple and 4 homers. She drove

in 32 runs and was successful on all four stolen base attempts.

Halley Beckham, a junior from Adamsville, Tenn., was the Toppers’ leading pitcher with a 15-13 record. Beckham pitched 154.1 innings in 28 games with 19 complete games and held opponents to a .228 batting average while striking out 77.

BMC finished the season with a 25-20-1 record.

Woods to rest elbow, skip AT&T National

BY DOUG FERGUSON The Associated Press

Tiger Woods’ sore left elbow will keep him out of competition until the British Open.

Woods said Wednesday on his website that doctors found a strain in his left elbow and advised that he take a few weeks off for rest and treatment.

That means he will miss the AT&T National next week at Congressional, where he is the defending champion.

The tournament benefits the Tiger Woods Foundation.

“I was examined after I returned home from the U.S. Open, and the doctors determined I have a left elbow strain,” Woods said. “I have been advised to take a few weeks off, rest and undergo treatment. I’ll be ready to go for the British Open, and I’m looking forward to playing at Muirfield.”

Woods began flexing his left wrist after hacking several shots out of the thick rough at Merion during the first round of the U.S. Open. He said that he was “fine” when the first round was halted by darkness, offered few other details the next morning and only after he finished the second round did he reveal scant details of the injury.

He said it first occurred at The Players Championship, which he won May 12 for his fourth victory this year. But he did not say in which round it occurred, or even the type of shot that caused the injury.

Woods wound up at 13-over 293 at Merion, his worst score ever for a U.S. Open and matching his highest total in any major. Woods said Friday his sore elbow would not have kept him from playing if it were not the U.S. Open. He was not asked about it the rest of the week.

His website said he felt minor discomfort before going to Merion and aggravated the area last week.

It will be the 10th time Woods is unable to defend a title in official PGA Tour events, with six of those related to reconstructive surgery on his left knee after he won the 2008 U.S. Open at Torrey Pines. The last time he failed to defend was in 2010 at Bay Hill, when he was returning from the scandal in his personal life.

Woods extended his regrets to AT&T, secondary sponsors and fans in Washington for not being able to play next week, though he indicated he would be at Congressional at some point to support the tournament.

“The AT&T National means a lot to me and my foundation,” he said. “It’s especially difficult not defending at my own tournament. It’s going to be a great event, and I look forward to being there to provide my support.”

AT&T is under contract as title sponsor through 2014. The Dallas-based company recently announced that it would take over as title sponsor for the Byron Nelson Championship starting in 2015. It also is the longtime title sponsor at Pebble Beach.

The British Open is July 18-21 at Muirfield, where Woods’ bid for the calendar Grand Slam ended in 2002 when he was caught in nasty weather.

Woods shot 81 in the third round — 10 players failed to break 80 — for his highest score as a pro.

AD: Tide football on unprecedented run

BY JOHN ZENOR The Associated Press

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama athletic director Bill Battle isn’t sure any football program has ever topped the Crimson Tide’s current run under Nick Saban.

Battle’s background and perspective make that high praise, indeed. He played for coach Paul “Bear” Bryant’s first national championship team at Alabama in 1961 and was a successful Southeastern Conference head coach.

“I think what they’ve done is unprecedented,” Battle said Wednesday in an interview with The Associated Press. “I have admired what they’ve done from afar, and for the last few months, have admired what they do up front. Coach Saban has got a great program going. He is as focused and intense a guy as I’ve ever been around. Everything that they do, they peel back all the layers to get down to what needs to be done as well as anybody I’ve ever seen.

“The impact not just on the football program but on the athletic department in general has been felt. They have motivated all of us to do a better job in all areas, from academics to life skills to other sports.”

Saban has led the Tide to

“We just need to keep on working hard because every day everybody else is coming after us.”

Bill Battle Alabama athletic director back-to-back national titles and three of the past four.

Battle makes it clear he’s not elevating Saban above his own revered former coach but taking into consideration the current climate where college football has become an “arms race” with huge salaries and facilities and TV contracts in the Southeastern Conference and elsewhere getting pricey upgrades.

Bryant led Alabama to 323 wins and six national championships. Saban’s only halfway there on the title front, albeit in only six seasons, but his program hasn’t shown any signs of slowing down.

“What coach Bryant did was unprecedented at the time, I think,” said Battle, who spent seven seasons as Tennessee’s head coach in the 1970s. “This is a different time. I don’t think that competition has

ever been greater in the history of college football than it is today. I think from that reference, there are a lot of people that are putting a lot of money into football and all sports.

“That hasn’t happened in the past as much as it has today.”

Battle has nearly three months on the job since replacing a former ‘Bama teammate, the late Mal Moore. His position seems a little like a president taking over during economic boom times, when the big question is how long he can keep the party going.

Besides football, Alabama has collected national championships in four other sports the past two academic years.

A new $9 million athletic training facility stands near his corner office, and 101,821seat Bryant-Denny Stadium has been expanded four times since 1988.

“Somebody told me yesterday, ‘It looks to me like they’ve put you in the Daytona 500 in the lead lap and told you to stay in front for 499 more laps,’” Battle said. “Yeah, it’s a good time to be at the university. Sometimes it’s harder to stay on top than it is to get to the top. It’s a great time to be here, with great people. I don’t see our challenge as to main-

tain, I see our challenge as to move forward. That’s what our plan is.”

A new baseball stadium and rowing facility are in the planning stages and Battle is hoping they’ll be done in the next few years.

“We just need to keep on working hard because every day everybody else is coming after us,” Battle said.

Battle also discussed other issues facing the SEC and college athletics these days.

Saban was the only coach at the league’s spring meetings voting for a nine-game SEC schedule, but Battle thinks that change is coming.

Battle and Saban also favor SEC teams joining the Big Ten in agreeing not to schedule future FCS opponents, which often means asking fans to come out for guaranteed mismatches.

“I think that the fans deserve better games and we need to pay attention to the fans,” Battle said. “The highdefinition television is really good. There are some cool places to watch it from and see games up close and personal.

It’s a challenge to all of us in the sports business, particularly those with big stadiums, that we need to make the fan experience a whole lot better.”

Southern Miss not renewing Hammond’s contract

BY DAVID BRANDT The Associated Press

Southern Mississippi is looking for a new athletic director.

University President Rodney Bennett announced on Wednesday morning in Hattiesburg, Miss., that the oneyear contract for Jeff Hammond will not be renewed after it expires on June 30.

Hammond — a former Army major general who played quarterback for the Golden Eagles in the 1970s — made several important decisions during his tenure, including firing football coach Ellis Johnson after one disastrous season that ended with an 0-12 record.

He also hired basketball coach Donnie Tyndall, who won 27 games in his first season.

But Bennett, who started his tenure as president in April, said he wanted new leadership in athletics.

“It is important to me to hire my own executive staff in certain high profile areas and assemble my own leadership team,” Bennett said.

“Nonetheless, there is a place for General Hammond in my administration, and I have extended an opportunity for him to continue to serve USM in other areas. I am hopeful that he will accept my offer.”

Hammond also had to deal with an athletic department that was $1.2 million in debt.

He sold a home football game back to Nebraska in 2012 and also scheduled a road game against Arkansas — which includes a hefty payout — for the

upcoming season in an effort to generate more funds.

Bennett did not elaborate about Hammond’s proposed new position.

Hammond, who was not at Wednesday’s press conference, did not immediately return a message seeking comment.

Associate athletic director Jeremy McClain will be the interim athletic director, but is not a candidate for the fulltime job.

Bennett said a search committee — which includes former Georgia football coach and athletic director Vince Dooley — will begin the process of finding a new athletic director.

Bennett said he hopes to have a new candidate in place by the end of August.

It will undeniably be an

important hire. Bennett said Southern Miss is “at a critical juncture in determining our future.”

Southern Miss is trying to find its place in the NCAA’s changing conference landscape. The Golden Eagles have watched several longtime rivals and Conference USA members — like Memphis, Tulane and Houston — leave for bigger conferences.

Southern Miss has had a decent amount of recent success, including a C-USA football championship and a trip to the NCAA tournament in basketball during the 2011-12 school year, but average facilities and a relatively small market have hurt the program’s chances at latching onto a more high-profile conference.

Spurs rely on togetherness to overcome Game 6 loss

BY JON KRAWCZYNSKI The Associated Press

MIAMI â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Through heartbreaking losses and hair-raising victories, through Game 7s of the NBA Finals and Game 46s of the regular season, through contract extension after contract extension, what has defined these San Antonio Spurs more than anything else is the simple fact that they stick together.

Manu Ginobili, Tony Parker, Tim Duncan and Gregg Popovich have been the heart, the soul, the backbone and the brains of this operation for more than a decade. Through an unprecedented era of change and volatility, these Spurs have stayed in San Antonio, stayed together.

Coming off the most gut-wrenching defeat they have ever suffered, that unity, that togetherness, that unparalleled bond is more important now than it ever has been.

A group that thought it had seen everything the NBA could throw at it was shaken to the core when it experienced something totally new â&#x20AC;&#x201D; when the Spurs gave away a five-point lead with 21 seconds to play in Game 6 against the Miami Heat and missed the chance to secure the franchiseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fifth championship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never been through a situation like this,â&#x20AC;? Ginobili said on Wednesday. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In 10-plus years weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been through basically everything. But I was trying to think. Not like this. So hopefully we are up to the challenge.

We know that we can play better, and we have to.â&#x20AC;?

Game 7 is Thursday night in Miami, only because the end of Game 6 went so horribly wrong for San Antonio.

The Spurs were up 13 points early in the fourth quarter and led 94-89 with 21 seconds to go. This team that had closed out so many of these games over the years with its cold-blooded precision was ready for perhaps its crowning achievement â&#x20AC;&#x201D; dethroning LeBron James and the defending champion Heat on their home floor, no less.

The NBA was raising the yellow ropes around the court, wheeling the Larry Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien trophy toward the mouth of the arena and preparing the postgame celebration that was moments away.

Then James hit a 3-pointer, Kawhi Leonard missed a free throw, and Ray Allen drilled another 3 to force overtime. The Heat held on to win it and force a Game 7, and a team that has always prided itself on not letting the emotions of the moment overwhelm them looked totally defeated, totally devastated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Still down,â&#x20AC;? Ginobili said a day later. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After a blow like that, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not easy to get back up. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But after 12 hours now, I feel a little better knowing that we have another chance, that we can do so many things better. And that we are in a Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not much more than that. We are still in a great situation. We are where we wanted to be at the beginning of the season, still.â&#x20AC;?

In an effort to keep the team together and not dwell on the opportunity that just slipped away, the Spurs went to dinner â&#x20AC;&#x201D; together, of course â&#x20AC;&#x201D; after Game 6 to share some stories and clear their heads. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It helped,â&#x20AC;? Duncan said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It did. The other option is a bunch of us go back to our rooms and sit in our rooms and sit there by ourselves and beat yourself up. So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always good to be around teammates and kind of get some stuff out in the open. We did exactly that. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be ready to rock.â&#x20AC;?

The Spurs have never been this close to having their hands on the trophy and failed to close it out. These robotic Spurs finally let their guard down Tuesday night, showing the raw disappointment that comes with such a defeat.

Astros sign No. 1 overall pick RHP Appel The Associated Press

HOUSTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Mark Appel received high praise from MLB commissioner Bud Selig on Wednesday when the No. 1 overall pick signed with the Houston Astros.

Speaking at a MLB diversity business summit at a convention near Minute Maid Park, Selig praised Houstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rebuilding efforts. He then likened Appel, a right-handed pitcher, and Houstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2012 No. 1 pick, shortstop Carlos Correa, to two of the fran-

Minimum22Handmade Handmade Minimum with 2 toppings Pan Pizzas w/ 2 toppings

chiseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest stars, Craig Biggio and Jeff Bagwell. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Astros are on their way to building the foundation that every club needs for sustained success and I believe this club has the right people in place to execute their very sound plan that is going to bring winning baseball back to the fans of Houston,â&#x20AC;? Selig said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I look forward to the day when players like Carlos Correa and a hometown pitcher Mark Appel ... will be among those who form a new core as

successful as Bagwell and Biggio were for so many years.â&#x20AC;?

Appel, a polished and wellspoken Stanford graduate, was left speechless when told of the commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remarks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, uh, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very nice words that he said,â&#x20AC;? he said, shaking his head. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Just hearing that comparison is pretty special, especially being a hometown Houston guy. Bagwell and Biggio were two of my favorite players and knowing that Bud Selig sees me and

Carlos Correa as potentially the next Bagwell and Biggio is exciting.â&#x20AC;?

Terms were not disclosed but Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow said it was â&#x20AC;&#x153;the most significant investmentâ&#x20AC;? the Astros have ever made in an amateur player.

The 21-year-old Appel was 10-4 with four complete games and a 2.12 ERA this season. He had 130 strikeouts in 106.1 innings pitched and allowed opponents a .203 batting average.
