3 injured in crash BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
Three individuals were transported to Magnolia Regional Health Center following a threecar accident around 12:30 p.m. Saturday. A female driver and passenger were injured when their 2004 Ford Grand Am collided with a 2000 Pontiac Montana Minivan. The male driver of the minivan was also transported to MRHC. A Ford Fusion was also involved in the wreck, but no individuals were injured as they attempted to enter U.S. Highway 72 east from Sara Lane. According to witnesses at the scene, the 2004 Grand Am was headed east on Highway 72 when the minivan – traveling west – attempted to turn onto Sara Lane and turned into the car’s path. Significant front-end damage was done to both vehicles as the accident interrupted the flow of traffic for over 30 minutes.

Three individuals were transported to Magnolia Regional Health Center following a three-car accident around 12:30 p.m.
FARMINGTON — Numerous cities across Mississippi will hold party primary elections on Tuesday. For the first time, Farmington is among them. It is the only Alcorn County municipality in which residents will head to the polls between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. to elect leadership. The Republican Party primary will decide the outcome for Farmington, and there will be no general election in June. The city has six candidates for the five seats on the Board of Aldermen, and the top five will be elected. In-person absentee voting concluded Saturday morning. Candidates are Lowell Gann, Mac Grisham, Bill Hebert, Jeff Patterson, Johnny Potts and
Mikey Wilbanks. Incumbent Ernest Cole, who joined the board in 2010, is not running. Gann is seeking a third non-consecutive term; Grisham is seeking a third term; and Hebert and Potts are seeking second terms. Patterson is a former Farmington alderman and former county supervisor for the 2nd District. The mayor’s race is uncontested as Dale Fortenberry gets ready for a third term. It is a paper ballot, and voters will put an “X” in the box next to each of their choices. The only other contested municipal race in Alcorn County this year will be the June 4 general election in Rienzi, which has 11 people running for the Board of Aldermen. Corinth’s elections are coming up in 2014.
Exhibit will feature student artwork BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The focus on youthful creativity continues at the art gallery this month with a collection of works by Alcorn Central High School students. The students’ instructor, Crystal Bryde, is also exhibiting a selection of works. An opening reception with the
artists is Sunday from 2 until 4 p.m., and the exhibit will run through May 18. The ACHS student work was created primarily by 11th- and 12th grade students and includes some perspective pieces, banner-shaped tributes to various artists and some diPlease see EXHIBIT | 2A

Sunny skies greet record race day BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
The record day was a perfect one for running. Over 1,200 runners agreed. Things didn’t look good late Friday as rain pounded Corinth and the temperature fell 20 degrees. Saturday was a different story as the sun came out and produced ideal weather for participants of the 32nd Annual Corinth Coca-Cola Classic 10K.
“I woke up and walked outside early this morning and saw the moon shining … I knew then it was going to be a good day,” said race founder Kenneth Williams. “It was absolutely perfect.” “We were blessed beyond request,” added race co-coordinator Mona Lisa Gray. “Everything ran very smooth.” Saturday’s annual run – which set a record with 1,500 registered runners/walkers – through
the streets of Corinth saw some memorable moments over the 6.2 mile course. Five Corinth firemen covered the course with 30 pounds of gear. “This was something we thought about doing just to see if we could do it,” said fireman Chris Duncan. “We wanted to be able to complete the race without

Supervisors to hold first meeting in former jail BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The old county jail building is back in business. The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors will hold its first meeting in the renovated Fulton Drive building at 9 a.m. Monday. A dedication is being planned for two weeks later at 9 a.m. on May 20 for the new Alcorn County Board of Supervisors facility. The building experienced flood damage in May 2010 and sat vacant for some time following the relocation of the sheriff’s department and jail. The renovation is complete except for a few finishing touches, such as landscaping on the front, window blinds in the board room and a few
framed photos waiting to go on the walls. “I think this is something the people of Alcorn County can be proud of,” said Board President Lowell Hinton. “It’s something that will be useful for many years to come. We would never have been able to do this without the $80,000 we received from FEMA.” In addition to those hazard mitigation funds, the county spent an additional $40,000 on the renovation. The move away from the upstairs space at chancery gets the board into compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act requirements. “It was just a matter of time before they shut us down,” said Hinton. “All it would have taken was one person to have filed a
complaint.” Options were limited. “We didn’t really have any other facility outside of the courthouse to move to,” he said. This building — structurally sound and with available parking — seemed to be the obvious choice, said Hinton. The renovation took a bit longer than anticipated because of the work on the concrete floors. “I was expecting it to be about two weeks and it ended up being a month,” said 2nd District Supervisor Dal Nelms, who oversaw the construction. The surface had to be thoroughly sanded and old cracks and broken spots repaired. The contractor applied a glossy brown finish, and it is designed for easy cleanup. As a visitor enters the

The hallway is lined with the portraits of the various boards taken through the years, all newly framed and matted, and with a new label indicating the names of the county leaders. The board room has seating for 36. Supervisors will now sit at a semicircular table rather than the long conference table used for many years. Nelms said the walls are pre-wired for flatscreen displays for presentations in the future. Supervisors are still contemplating what might be done with additional square footage that could serve as a meeting room or additional offices. The old jail area is closed off from the office areas except for the drunk tank, which has been preserved and opens into the conference room. Chancery Clerk Bobby
The old drunk tank has been cleaned up and refurbished as a conversation piece in the renovated building. The rest of the old jail is mostly out of sight. Marolt said the newly open space at the Alcorn Chancery Building, where the supervisors had met since July 1990, is much needed. It will provide some additional room for files and meeting space for youth court and attorney-client con-
ferences. Attorneys “have never had a place to meet with clients,” he said. Built by S&S Construction and designed by George Thomason, the old jail building and sheriff’s department opened in 1975.
Agenda set for Monday supervisors meeting The Alcorn County Board of Supervisors will hold a regular meeting at 9 a.m. Monday. The meeting will be held at the old jail building on South Fulton Drive. The agenda includes the following items: ■ Approval of prior meeting minutes ■ Approval of financial report and payment of claims ■ Quarterly report by Rick Napper, Magnolia Regional Health Center CEO ■ Ricky James with Renasant Insurance — insurance renewal ■ Tommy Hopkins — County Road 165 ■ Resolution for Chalybeate CDBG ■ Notification of VA transport volunteers honored ■ Larry Ross — office security ■ Warden Doug Mullins ■ Juvenile Detention Center monthly report
■ Ricky Gibens — emergency management ■ Bid opening for material, labor and equipment to level with hot mix and seal county roads ■ Request for cash on Caterpillar DIP grant project ■ Use of courthouse grounds for National Day of Prayer and youth rally ■ Position statement from tax assessor on Kimberly Clark tax exemption ■ Assessment changes ■ Notification from secretary of the interior on sequestration impact on June payment to the county for payment in lieu of taxes program ■ Release of B&M Paving on State Aid project ■ Lease-purchase agreement on 2012 John Deere 6100 tractor for 2nd District ■ Cook Coggin Engineers invoice for $4,263.19 ■ Notification on reversed homestead disal-

The back wall of the gallery will feature works entered in the QUEST district-wide art competition by 2nd- through 6th-

Today in History
Strawberry speaks at ministry banquet BY JEFF YORK
Today is Sunday, May 5, the 125th day of 2013. There are 240 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlight in History: On May 5, 1813, Danish philosopher Soren Kierkegaard, considered the father of existentialism, was born in Copenhagen.
On this date: In 1821, Napoleon Bonaparte, 51, died in exile on the island of St. Helena. In 1862, Mexican troops defeated French occupying forces in the Battle of Puebla. (The Cinco de Mayo holiday commemorates Mexico’s victory.) In 1891, New York’s Carnegie Hall (then named “Music Hall”) had its official opening night. In 1925, schoolteacher John T. Scopes was charged in Tennessee with violating a state law that prohibited teaching the theory of evolution. (Scopes was found guilty, but his conviction was later set aside.) In 1936, the Ethiopian capital, Addis Ababa, fell to Italian invaders. In 1941, Ethiopian Emperor Haile Selassie returned to Addis Ababa after the Italians were driven out with the help of Allied forces. In 1942, wartime sugar rationing began in the United States. In 1955, West Germany became a fully sovereign state. The baseball musical “Damn Yankees” opened on Broadway. In 1961, astronaut Alan B. Shepard Jr. became America’s first space traveler as he made a 15-minute suborbital flight aboard Freedom 7, a Mercury capsule launched from Cape Canaveral, Fla. In 1973, Secretariat won the Kentucky Derby, the first of its Triple Crown victories. In 1981, Irish Republican Army hunger-striker Bobby Sands died at the Maze Prison in Northern Ireland in his 66th day without food. In 1987, the congressional Iran-Contra hearings opened with former Air Force Maj. Gen. Richard V. Secord the leadoff witness.
For the Daily Corinthian
An inspirational story of beating drug and alcohol addictions and two bouts of cancer will be told by Daryl Strawberry during Living Free Ministries Celebration Banquet on May 9. The banquet will begin at 6:30 p.m. at Oakland Baptist Church and is free to everyone. The living hope that is available with Jesus will be clearly on display when you hear Strawberry’s speech. The former major league all-star has battled drug and alcohol addictions that ended his career, plus he twice had cancer surgery. “I’ve heard about Darryl for a long time because I am a baseball fan,” said Living Free founder Tommy Wilson. “He is a fantastic speaker and I am so excited about bringing him to Corinth.” Strawberry helped lead the New York Mets to the World Series title in 1986. He and teammate Dwight Gooden both soon experienced off-the-field problems to prevent the Mets from winning another World Series. “I have a heart for people, especially those who are faced with conditions, situations or battles in their lives that often bring a deep sense of hopelessness to the soul,” said Strawberry, who is an ordained minister. He is the Mets’ alltime leader in home runs. Strawberry made the all-star team eight straight years from 1984-1991. He entered rehab for alcohol problems for the first time in 1990 and went to the Betty Ford Clinic in 1994. Strawberry will deliver a message of hope, strength and practical ways of how to change and empower your life through the power of God and the
process of change. After several down seasons because of his addiction problems and issues with the Internal Revenue Service, Strawberry bounced back to have a good year with the New York Yankees in 1996. He finished his Yankees career with World Series titles in 1996, 1998 and 1999. “He will talk about his issues a lot during his speech, but he will also talk a lot about Jesus,” said Wilson. “He was gifted to play baseball and his career went downhill quick because of his Strawberry’s life began to turn around when he married Tracy Boulware, whom he met while in rehab, in October 2006. The couple formed the Darryl Strawberry Foundation, which helped to educate and socialize children with autism. He published his book, Straw: Finding My Way, that talked about his battles with drugs and alcohol, but his especially with cocaine. The book was a best seller in 2009. “I was once very lost and tormented, but now I am found and free in Christ Jesus. I want everyone to experience the saving and transforming power of Jesus Christ,” commented Strawberry. Strawberry was one of the celebrity stars on Donald Trump’s Apprentice on NBC in 2010. Wilson said that if you coach a youth team, bringing your players to hear Strawberry could make a real difference in their lives. Living Free Ministries does not have any fundraisers to support them, but will take an offering to help with the expenses of this banquet. For more information, call Wilson at 662-603-9829 or 662287-5394.

stopping.” Duncan and fellow firemen D.J. Hammock, Ben Garner, Dallas Sanders and Denis Ericson all ran the course with the extra weight. Duncan, Hammock and Garner finished with a time of 1:07 while Sanders and Ericson crossed in 1:42. The group trained every third day for three weeks to get ready for the 10K. “It was tough on the knees and legs with the extra weight, but the support we received on the course made it a lot easier,” said
Duncan. Southaven runner Zach Greenfield completed the 10K in a little different running attire as the rest of the field. Greenfield finished with a time of 1:49 all while wearing a wedding dress while his wife, Lindsay, finished in a T-shirt tuxedo. “I don’t exercise often and told my wife if she signed me up, I would run in a wedding dress,” said the 28-year-old competing in his first Corinth 10K. Greenfield picked up the dress from the Goodwill and following some alterations by Lindsay he was good to go. “I think he started to get
cold feet before the race, but he went through with it,” said his wife of two years. “Everyone thought it was great,” he said with a smile. Corinth runner Brett Garrett treated the crowd to another colorful outfit on Saturday. The 42-yearold finished the race in a Shrek costume – complete with a Shrek mask – in 1:04. “Crazy Tom” didn’t disappoint either. Tom McCabe – aka as Crazy Tom – came up with some sort of super hero outfit to keep his colorful streak alive at the 10K.

Genealogical Society has well-deserved new home The Alcorn County Genealogical Society has a new centrally-located home on the ground floor of the Alcorn County Courthouse. It couldn’t have happened to a more deserving group of dedicated volunteers. An open house was held recently for the local research group’s fresh location in the former Veterans’ Service Center. Members of the Genealogical Society are thrilled with the move. Those visiting the office will be, too. If the society can’t come up with the necessary information someone is seeking, the Alcorn County Circuit Court Clerk’s office is just up the stairs and the Alcorn County Chancery Building is a short walk away. The Research Room of the new office has been named in honor of Lila Voyles and in memory of Fredra Wilbanks, both charter members of the society. Alcorn County’s Genealogical Society made the move in late July to the new office. People from all across the United States have visited, looking for records, especially cemeteries. Individuals are usually looking for marriage, census or burial records. We appreciate the work of the Alcorn County Genealogical Society and they service they provide.

Syria is their war, not ours “The worst mistake of my presidency,” said Ronald Reagan of his decision to put Marines into the middle of Lebanon’s civil war, where 241 died in a suicide bombing of their barracks. And if Barack Obama plunges into Syria’s civil war, it could consume his presidency, even as Iraq consumed the presidency of George W. Bush. Why would Obama even consider this? Because he blundered badly. Foolishly, he put his credibility on the line by warning that any Syrian use of chemical weapons would cross a “red line” and be a “game changer” with “enormous consequences.” Not only was this ultimatum unwise, Obama had no authority to issue it. If Syria does not threaten or attack us, Obama would need congressional authorization before he could constitutionally engage in acts of war against Syria. When did he ever receive such authorization? Moreover, there is no proof Syrian President Bashar Assad ever ordered the use of chemical weapons. U.S. intelligence agencies maintain that small amounts of the deadly toxin sarin gas were likely used. But if it did happen, we do not know who ordered it. Syrians officials deny that they ever used chemicals. And before we dismiss Damascus’ denials, recall that an innocent man in Tupelo, Miss., was lately charged with mailing deadly ricin

Prayer for today Father, we are eternally indebted to Your magnificent love that provided a way through Jesus to loosen sin’s shackles and for us to be reshaped into Your likeness. Amen.
A verse to share “Only fear the LORD, and serve him in truth with all your heart: for consider how great things he hath done for you.” — 1 Samuel 12:24
to Sen. Roger Wicker and President Obama. This weekend, we learned he may have Pat been framed. It is well Buchanan within the Columnist capacity of Assad’s enemies to use or fake the use of poison gas to suck us into fighting their war. Even if elements of Assad’s army did use sarin, we ought not plunge in. And, fortunately, that seems to be Obama’s thinking. Why stay out? Because it is not our war. There is no vital U.S. interest in who rules Syria. Hafez Assad and Bashar have ruled Syria for 40 years. How has that ever threatened us? Moreover, U.S. intervention would signal to Assad that the end is near, making his use of every weapon in his arsenal, including chemical weapons, more — not less — likely. U.S. intervention would also make us de facto allies of Assad’s principal enemies, the Muslim Brotherhood and al-Nusra Front, Syria’s al-Qaida. As The New York Times reported Sunday, “Nowhere in rebel-controlled Syria is there a secular fighting force to speak of.” Do we really wish to expend American blood and treasure to bring about a victory of Islamists and jihadists in Syria? If Assad’s chemical weap-
ons threaten any nation, it is Israel. But Israel knows where they are stored and has an air force superior to our own in the Med. Israeli troops on the Golan are as close to Damascus as Dulles Airport is to Washington, D.C. Yet Israel has not attacked Syria’s chemical weapons. Why not? Israel is well aware that Syria’s air defense system is, as The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday, “one of the most advanced and concentrated barriers on the planet.” And if Israel does not feel sufficiently threatened by Syria’s chemical weapons to go after them, why should we, 4,000 miles away? Then there is Turkey, with three times Syria’s population, NATO’s second-largest army and a 600-mile border. Why is ridding the Middle East of Assad our assignment and not Ankara’s? Surely the heirs of the Ottomans have a larger stake here. And if we get into this war, how do we get out? For the war is metastasizing. Hezbollah is sending in fighters to help the Alawite Shia. Other Lebanese are assisting the Sunni rebels. The war could spread into Iraq, where the latest clashes between Sunni and Shia are pulling the country apart. Young Muslims are coming in from Europe. Iran and Russia are aiding Damascus. Qatar and Saudi Arabia are aiding the Islamists. The United States, Jordan and Turkey are aiding
the secularists. Syria could come apart, and a sectarian and ethnic war of all against all erupt across the region. Do we really want the U.S. military in the middle of this? Because his “red line” appears to have been crossed, Obama is being told he must attack Syria to maintain his credibility with Iran and North Korea. Nonsense. To attack Syria would compound Obama’s folly in drawing the red line. Better to have egg on Obama’s face than for America to be dragged into another unnecessary war. Obama would not be alone in having his bluff called. George Bush proclaimed that no “axis of evil” nation would be allowed to acquire the “world’s worst weapons.” North Korea now has those weapons. Congressional war hawks, led by Sens. John McCain and Lindsey Graham, are cawing for air strikes and no-fly zones, which would mean dead and captured Americans and many more dead Syrians. Time for Congress to either authorize Obama to lead us into a new Middle East war, or direct him, in the absence of an attack upon us, to keep America out of what is Syria’s civil war. Before we slide into another war, let the country be consulted first. (Daily Corinthian columnist Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?”)
Policies are causing Obama to lose power BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN Listen to the air going out of the economy; it sounds like an air mattress deflating. As Obamacare comes closer to reality, its drawbacks -- or at the very least its growing pains -- alienate more of its erstwhile supporters. President Obama’s failure to pass the gun control bill was more than a legislative reversal. He lost in the court of public opinion. Despite his histrionics exploiting the Newtown, Conn. tragedy, he failed to move public opinion. In fact, polling suggests that it moved the other way -from a pro-gun control consensus in the wake of the shootings to a pro-Second Amendment posture after more reflection. The Boston bombings cast a harsh light on his failure to keep us safe and his weird compromises with Islamic terrorism. It might be a long, hot summer for the president. Leading the casualty list is his economic policy. After 0.4 percent growth GDP growth in the last quarter of 2012, experts had expected

a sharp rebound in the first quarter of 2013, sparked by year-end bonuses. Didn’t happen. The 2.5 percent rate was anemic at best. The fact that only 88,000 jobs were created in March 2013 is pathetic. Indeed, the prospects for any kind of real growth this quarter are sharply limited. And more economic disaster beckons. The stock market is artificially pumped up by desperate investors who are facing zero interest rates in their safe, normal investment outlets. So these folks, who likely saw their portfolios take a crew cut in 2008 and 2009, are putting their money into CCC rated securities -- junk. The bubble is going to burst, as they all do, and their investments will come crashing down. Meanwhile, the Federal Housing Administration has stepped in to offer mortgages of low-income people with all of the shortcomings of those issued or insured by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- a 3 percent down payment, artificially low teaser interest rates and
high mortgage/value ratios. Wait until this crash materializes. Finally, the banks of the world are invested to the tune of $1.6 guadrillion (first time you’ve seen that word in print?) in derivatives. There is not enough money in the Fed, the ECB or China to cover the losses that are in the offing. With the Fed’s balance sheet stretched as never before, there is little room for error in this preposterous bank gambling. And then there’s Obamacare. Set to go into effect in 2014, Americans are in for a sticker shock when they see their health insurance premiums. The pleasant promises of a $2,500 per family savings will be seen as the baloney they were when the president made them. And a great many Americans will find equally disingenuous his promise that we can keep our current health insurance policies if we want. With our employers weighing whether to pay a $3,000 per employee fine for no coverage of a $15,000

health insurance premium, it will be an easy decision. They will cancel their policies and offer no coverage. Their decision will throw the employees on the mercy of the insurance exchanges Obama has established with their hope of federal premium subsidies. But, as they are about to find out, the subsidies are only available up to about $75,000 in household income and the presuppose that you pay a minimum of 7 percent of your income on health insurance before they kick in. Americans will be outraged when they realize how much they are going to have to pay. And young people are going to realize that the hope of coverage is evanescent at best. While the elderly learn the grim truth about Medicare rationing. (Daily Corinthian columnist Dick Morris, former advisor to the Clinton administration, is a commentator and writer.

Feds pressure widow, pals in bomb case BOSTON — Every time the widow of suspected Boston Marathon bomber Tamerlan Tsarnaev leaves her parents’ house, federal agents watching the residence follow her in unmarked vehicles. Federal authorities are placing intense pressure on what they know to be the inner circle of the two bombing suspects, arresting three college buddies of surviving brother Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, and keeping Tamerlan’s 24-year-old widow, Katherine Russell, in the public eye with their open surveillance and leaks to media about investigators’ focus on her. Legal experts say it’s part of their quest not just to determine whether Russell and the friends are culpable but also to push for as much information as possible regarding whether the bombing suspects had ties to a terrorism network or accomplices working domestically or abroad. A primary goal is to push the widow and friends to give their full cooperation, according to the experts. David Zlotnick, a professor of law at Roger Williams University and former federal prosecutor in the District of Columbia, said authorities may be tracking Russell closely because they feel she’s not being completely honest about all
she knows. “It seems to me they don’t believe her yet,” he said. Dzhokhar is in a prison hospital, facing a potential death sentence if convicted of the terrorism plot that authorities allege the 19-year-old and his late 26-yearold brother carried out April 15. Twin pressure cooker bombs detonated near the race’s finish line, leaving three people dead and injuring more than 260 others. Tamerlan died in a gunfight with authorities April 19, a day after authorities released photos of the suspects. Tamerlan’s widow has been ensconced at her parents’ North Kingstown, R.I., home since then. Much about her remains a mystery, including what she knew or witnessed in the weeks, months and years before the bombings, and what she saw and did in the days after.
Calm, moist air aids fight against wildfire CAMARILLO, Calif. — A big cool-down in weather calmed a huge wildfire burning in Southern California coastal mountains Saturday, and firefighters worked to cut miles of containment lines while conditions were favorable. High winds and withering hot, dry air were replaced by the normal flow of damp air off the Pacific, significantly reducing fire activity. “The fire isn’t really running and gunning,” said Tom Kruschke, a
Ventura County Fire Department spokesman. The 43-square-mile blaze at the western end of the Santa Monica Mountains was 30 percent surrounded. The humidity level rose so much that an overnight effort to burn away fuel at one section of the fire did not work well, Kruschke said. Despite the favorable conditions, evacuation orders remained in place for residences in several areas. Nearly 1,900 firefighters using engines, bulldozers and aircraft worked to corral the blaze. Firefighting efforts were focused on the fire’s east side, rugged canyons that are a mix of public and private lands, Kruschke said. The National Weather Service said an approaching low pressure system would bring a 20 percent chance of showers Sunday afternoon, with the likelihood increasing into the night and on Monday. “Anything we get is going to help us,” Kruschke said. The change in the weather was also expected to bring gusty winds to some parts of Southern California, but well away from the fire area. Despite its size and speed of growth, the fire that broke out Thursday and quickly moved through neighborhoods of Camarillo Springs and Thousand Oaks has caused damage to just 15 homes, though it has threatened thousands.

AG: Test wouldn’t exonerate inmate JACKSON — Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood says a new round of DNA testing on evidence collected against death row inmate Willie Jerome Manning would not exonerate him in the 1992 deaths of two students. Manning, now 44, is scheduled to die by lethal injection at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the state penitentiary at Parchman. “Any time there is legitimate, exculpatory evidence, capable of DNA testing, the state is prepared to conduct testing,” Hood said in a statement released late Friday. “However when the defense waits until the 11th hour to raise such claims, which could not possibly exonerate their client, courts are loathe to be subjected to these types of dilatory defense tactics.” Manning, who is black, had argued that hair found in one of the victim’s cars was not proved to be his. DNA showed that the hair was from a black person, but other blacks had been seen in the car, according to trial testimony. Hood said Manning could have had the hair tested at any time but had not. The Mississippi Supreme Court on Thursday refused to stop the execution, in a 5-4 decision. Manning’s lawyers have asked Gov. Phil
Bryant for a stay. Bryant spokesman Mick Bullock said Friday that the governor is reviewing the case. Manning’s attorney, David P. Voisin of Jackson, said Saturday that he’s awaiting a decision by Bryant before considering new appeals.
Wicker’s security detail ended TUPELO — The security team of Capitol Police assigned U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker is no longer keeping tabs on him outside his Tupelo home or when he travels. The security was ordered for the Mississippi Republican after a letter containing ricin and addressed to his office was intercepted. Wicker told a Tupelo civic club Friday that authorities were keeping the team with him until after the arrest of and hearing for a suspect in the case. The security detail for Wicker ended Friday night On Thursday, suspect James Everett Dutschke was ordered to remain in jail without bond until a federal grand jury decides whether to indict him. Wicker says he looks forward to having less of an entourage as he travels and returning to being a regular member of society.
No charges against man in shooting accident HATTIESBURG — Officials at the University of Southern Mississippi say a student is recovering at a Hattiesburg hospital from an accidental
gunshot wound in the leg. University spokesman Van Arnold says the student is in the intensive care unit at Forrest General Hospital. The student was in critical but stable condition. Arnold says the student will not be charged with a crime. State law exempts students over the age of 21 with enhanced concealed carry licenses from the ban on students possessing weapons on campuses. Arnold says questions about possessing a firearm on campus will be dealt with later. The man was found bleeding outside his vehicle parked near the front of campus Thursday.

State Briefs MSU professor to study in Russia STARKVILLE — A member of Mississippi State’s history faculty is receiving a Fulbright Fellowship, which will take him to Rostov-on-Don, Russia in August. Assistant professor Stephen Brain’s nine-month appointment will enable him to teach two semesters at Southern Federal University, while also conducting research for a book on Soviet history. Brain will be among some 1,100 U.S. faculty and professionals traveling during the 2013-14 academic year through the educational exchange. The current fellowship is Brain’s second Ful-
bright. As a graduate student, he studied in Moscow in 2005-06. A European history doctoral graduate of the University of California, Berkeley, he has made numerous visits to Russia, including participation in a 2010 National Science Foundation working group. He also has conducted research as a visiting scholar at Harvard’s Davis Center for Russian Studies.
Oxford to get earnings from hospital money OXFORD — The city of Oxford’s investment of the proceeds from the sale of Baptist Memorial Hospital-North Mississippi has earned about
$1.2 million its first year. The city hired Glenmede in 2012 to handle the investment of the money. The Oxford Eagle reports that the market value as of March 31 was $32 million. It was $30 million when Glenmede received the funds. The fund’s fiscal year ended March 31. The city will soon receive the first payment from the full trust fund balance, minus the expenses of the trust administrator. The first payment will be $962,938. About $140,000 of that money is already obligated for a bond repayment. Mayor Pat Patterson says that will leave the city with about $826,085 to spend.
US Arson Awareness Week kicks off today State and local fire and emergency service departments, as well as law enforcement agencies, will join forces May 5-11 for Arson Awareness Week. The U.S. Fire Administration (USFA) has dedicated this year’s campaign to the theme of reducing residential arson. “Arson destroys more than buildings. It can devastate a community through the decline of the neighborhood with increased insurance premiums, loss of business revenue and a decrease in property values,” State Fire Marshal and Commerce & Insurance Commissioner Julie Mix McPeak said. “The Tennessee State Fire Marshal’s Office is dedicated to bringing attention to the problem and working to make Tennessee safer.” The USFA reports an estimated 16,800 intentionally set fires in residential buildings occur annually in the United States. These fires result in an estimated 280 deaths, 775 injuries and $593 million in property losses each year. The average dollar loss for an intentionally set fire in a residential building is $21,320. The fatality rate for intentionally set residential fires is more than twice that of
other residential building fires. Rubbish, trash and waste; magazines, newspapers and writing paper; and uncontained flammable liquids or gas were the items most often first ignited in intentionally set fires in residential buildings. Residential arsons also contribute to a large percentage of fires in Tennessee. State Fire Marshal’s Office data from the Tennessee Fire Incident Reporting System (TFIRS) show that: • From 2008-2012, there were 2,382 residential structure fires in Tennessee caused by arson. These fires contributed to 19 deaths and 114 injuries. ■ In 2012, there were 434 residential structure fires in Tennessee caused by arson. ■ For the past five years, Tennessee has averaged 476 residential arson fires a year. The goal for this year’s Arson Awareness Week is to provide all residents with strategies to combat arson in their neighborhoods. The public can be engaged by implementing neighborhood cleanups along with improving internal and external security for their homes and abandoned properties using the following measures from the USFA: ■ Install smoke alarms
and a fire sprinkler system. Using operable smoke alarms and home fire sprinklers reduces the likelihood of death from fire by more than 82 percent. ■ Keep doors and windows locked. All external doors should be equipped with deadbolts. A locked door could be the deterrent that saves a house from arson. The best windows have spring-loaded bolts that insert through the window frame into the wall frame. ■ Clean house. Remove excess vegetation and piles of leaves. Clean around your house and garage, removing unused and unneeded paper, trash, cleaning supplies, partial cans of paint and other materials that could become kindling and fuel a fire. ■ Clean up vacant homes. Work with local authorities to secure abandoned and vacant homes, which are potential arson targets. This may include boarding up broken windows or other openings with plywood and removing abandoned vehicles. Encourage Neighborhood Watch members to patrol these areas and write down descriptions and the license plates of suspicious vehicles, as well as descriptions of suspicious strangers.
Nation Briefs LaPierre: NRA will never surrender guns HOUSTON — The public face of the National Rifle Association implored members Saturday to never give up their weapons in the wake of recent gun control efforts in Congress that he said will “destroy us and every ounce of our freedom.” “We will never surrender our guns, never,” Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre told several thousand people during the organization’s annual member meeting, which is part of the yearly NRA convention being held this weekend in Houston. A defiant LaPierre said the “political and media elites” have tried to use December’s mass shooting at a Newtown, Conn., elementary school and other recent ones “to blame us, to shame us, to compromise our freedom for their agenda.” LaPierre directed much of his criticism at President Barack Obama and his efforts
to pass legislation in Congress that would have expanded background checks for gun sales. That bill failed to pass in the Senate last month. LaPierre said the bill “got the defeat that it deserved.” “The bill wouldn’t have prevented Newtown or Aurora,” he said, also referencing last year’s shooting at a Colorado theater. “It won’t prevent the next tragedy. None of it has anything to do with keeping our children safer in any school any-
where.” Gun control supporters have promised to keep pressing the issue and have made significant strides at the state level, including passing new restrictions on firearms in Colorado and Connecticut. LaPierre implored lawmakers to direct their efforts not at new gun control legislation but to enforcing current federal gun laws and sending to prison violent criminals who break these laws and rebuilding “our broken mental health system.”

Avoid impaired driving during Cinco de Mayo For the Daily Corinthian
The Tennessee Highway Patrol will increase its highway traffic safety enforcement efforts this weekend to coincide with Cinco de Mayo celebrations. State Troopers will focus heavily saturation efforts, seat belt safety, and DUI enforcement. One person was killed on Tennessee roadways on May 1, 2012.
“When the temperatures begin to increase this time of year, more motorists start taking to the roadways. The Tennessee Highway Patrol will aggressively enforce our state’s seat belt and impaired driving laws to protect the public this Cinco de Mayo weekend and as we head into the summer months,” Department of Safety and Homeland Security Commissioner Bill Gibbons said.
As of May 2, 257 people had died on Tennessee roadways in 2013. That is a nearly 20 percent decrease from this time last year, when 321 fatalities had been reported. Of the fatalities this year, 97 of the victims were not properly restrained, compared to 144 in 2012. “We have been using a data driven approach to both DUI and seat belt enforcement and the re-
sults show. Assigning state troopers to places and times when DUI and seatbelt violators are more likely to drive has been an effective strategy,” THP Colonel Tracy Trott said. “We will increase our efforts even more on holidays and during the upcoming summer months to help increase public safety.” Some important reminders for those celebrat-
ing Cinco de Mayo and any holiday or special occasion include: ■ Plan Ahead. If you plan to drink, arrange a safe way home before the festivities begin. ■ Before drinking, designate a sober driver and give that person your keys. ■ If you’re impaired, call a taxi, use public transportation, or call a sober friend or family member to get you home safely.
■ Use the local Sober Ride program. If you see a drunk driver on the road, promptly contact your local law enforcement agency (Dial *THP) Remember, Friends Don’t Let Friends Drive Drunk. If you or someone you know is about to ride with one that is impaired, take their keys and help them make other arrangements to get to their destination safely.
MSU, MDES now providing new job-search engine STARKVILLE — As spring graduation approaches, officials at Mississippi State and the Mississippi Department of Employment Security are launching a new service that enables state employers to easily announce job openings to university students and alumni. The online program is the culmination of combined efforts by MDES, MSU’s Career Center and the campus-based National Strategic Planning and Analysis Research Center, known to most by its acronym nSPARC. The new site’s address is www.MSgradjobs.com. “Employers in the state now have another venue to list available professional positions they are seeking to fill and have those postings reach a larger pool of qualified applicants,” said MSU President Mark E. Keenum, in making the announcement. Scott Maynard, Career Center director, said the
advertisement of positions is open “to all students and graduates who qualify and are registered with our office. “It also will enable any alumnus seeking to return to Mississippi access to a database of jobs for which they qualify,” Maynard added. Libba Andrews, MSU Alumni Association associate director, said her office eagerly has awaited the program’s launch. “Providing career assistance for our alumni always has been a top priority for our office,” Andrews said. “We are excited for what this partnership will mean to graduates wanting to return to Mississippi, as well as for the impact MSU continues to have on the state.” Previously, MDES worked with nSPARC to develop the MDES Online Employment Service, which professor Domenico “Mimmo” Parisi called “the backbone of the new partnership with
MSU.” Parisi, nSPARC’s director, said creation of MSgradjobs.com “is a testament to the commitment that universities like MSU have to meeting the demands of a high-performance workforce in a growing, knowledge-based economy.” Parisi also praised the many “visionaries” who have helped the state become “a pioneer in developing the framework that will benefit both the state and provide a model for the rest of the country.” Speaking for potential employers, MDES Executive Director Mark Henry said the new service “provides a new avenue to recruit the talented students who are graduating from Mississippi State.” Henry said his state department “now looks forward to expanding MSgradjobs.com to include all of the universities and colleges in Mississippi.”

WASHINGTON — The U.S. economy showed last month why it remains the envy of industrialized nations: In the face of tax increases and federal spending cuts, employers added a solid 165,000 jobs in April — and far more in February and March than anyone thought. The hiring in April drove down the unemployment rate to a four-year low of 7.5 percent and sent a reassuring sign that the U.S. job market is improving. The economy is benefiting from a resurgent housing market, rising consumer confidence and the Federal Reserve's stimulus actions, which have helped lower borrowing costs and lift the stock market. The stock market soared after the Labor Department issued the April jobs report Friday. The Dow Jones industrial average closed up 142 points, or nearly 1 percent, to a record a record 14,973. It briefly broke 15,000 for the first time. Coming after a poor March jobs report and some recent data showing economic weakness, the April figures helped ease fears that U.S. hiring might be slumping for a fourth straight year. “Businesses haven't lost confidence yet,� said Sung Won Sohn, an economist at the Martin Smith School of Business at California State University. “Consumers are feeling better. The decent employment gains will add to the optimism and help lift future spending.� The Labor Department revised upward its estimate of job gains in February and March by a combined 114,000. It raised its estimate for February job gains from 268,000 to 332,000 and for March from 88,000 to 138,000. Excluding May 2010, when the figures were skewed by temporary Census hiring, February's gain was the most since November 2005. The economy has created an average of 208,000 jobs a month from November through April — well above the monthly average of 138,000 for the previous six months. The stronger job growth suggests that the federal budget cutting “does not mean recession,� said John Silvia, chief economist at Wells Fargo. “It does not mean a dramatic slowdown.� The unemployment rate edged down from 7.6 percent in March and has fallen 0.4 percentage point since the start of the year, though it remains high. To help spur borrowing, the Fed has said it plans to keep its benchmark interest rate at a record low near zero at least until unemployment falls to 6.5 percent. The last time unemployment was lower than it is now was in December 2008, when it was 7.3 percent. One cautionary note in the employment report: Most of the biggest job gains were in lower-paying fields, such as hotels and restaurants, which added 45,000 jobs, and retail stores, which added 29,000. By contrast, construction companies and governments cut jobs. Manufacturing employment was flat. Some higher-paying sectors added workers. For example, professional and technical services, which include jobs in accounting, engineering and architecture, added 23,000 jobs. Education and health services gained

44,000. Average hourly pay rose. But because employees in the private sector worked fewer hours, average weekly paychecks declined. But over the past year, total pay after adjusting for inflation is up a healthy 2.1 percent, economists said. That should help boost consumer spending in coming months. The job growth is occurring while the U.S. economy is growing modestly but steadily. It grew at a 2.5 percent annual rate in the January-March quarter, fueled by the strongest consumer spending in two years. The housing recovery is helping drive more hiring. Rising home sales and construction help create jobs and increase spending on furniture, landscaping and other services. One company that's benefited is SolarCity, based in San Mateo, Calif. Rising home building has helped increase demand for the solar-power systems the company installs in homes and businesses. CEO Lyndon Rive said SolarCity added 177 jobs in April and will welcome its 3,000th employee Monday. It is hiring engi-
neers, installers and administrative support staff and still has 400 openings. Consumers have been spending more even though their take-home pay was shrunk this year by a Social Security tax increase. On top of that, the economy has been under pressure from the acrossthe-board government spending cuts that began taking effect March 1. And some small and midsize companies are concerned about new requirements under the federal health care law. Americans' confidence in the economy jumped last month, lifted by a brighter outlook for hiring and expectations for higher pay, according to the Conference Board, a research group. Cheaper gasoline, the booming stock market and rising home values are also

no doubt making people more confident. The average sales price of a home rose 9.3 percent in February compared with a year ago, the most in nearly seven years, according to the Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller 20city index. Yet the global economy, by contrast, is slowing. The European Union warned Friday, for example, that the 17 countries that use the euro will shrink by a collective 0.4 percent this year. And unemployment in the eurozone is 12.1 percent. In Greece and Spain, it's roughly 27 percent. Both Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and European Central Bank President Mario Draghi have suggested that governments need to focus on stimulating growth and not just on spending cuts and deficit reduction.

Future with man paying for his past is clouded DEAR ABBY: I’m a 60-yearold woman with grown children. My husband and I divorced after 30 years of marriage because he met someone at work. It was a quick process, and because I was in shock, I agreed to the terms of the divorce even though they weren’t in my favor. Two years ago I met a very nice man who treats me with respect and love. He wants a future for us, and so do I, but I Abigail can’t get over one thing: He Van Buren has two illegitimate chilDear Abby dren — one he didn’t even know about — and although the son is an adult, he is still paying back support. I hate to sound like a snob, but this situation isn’t OK with me. I’m afraid I will always bring it up when I am angry. I’m thinking maybe if we wait until the support obligation has ended I might feel different, but who knows? I’d appreciate some advice. — CAN’T GET OVER IT IN GEORGIA DEAR CAN’T GET OVER IT: I know very few people over 35 who don’t carry some kind of
baggage from past experiences. You don’t have to approve of everything in his suitcase, but if you plan on having a long-term relationship with this “very nice man,” you will have to accept that he is fulfilling his legal obligation. Dragging the past into the present during an argument is an unhealthy expression of anger. It’s guaranteed to drive a partner away. Until you can find a more constructive way to work out disagreements, you shouldn’t marry anyone. DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are in our 30s and have been married 15 years. Over the past year we have been intimate only about once every three months. I tried to spice things up to see if I could get him interested, but he reacted by becoming upset, defensive and insinuating that I have an unnatural fixation on sex. After some discussions, it turns out he’s having erectile dysfunction problems. I was relieved to know it wasn’t lack of interest, but now I’m even more confused by his unwillingness to see a doctor. It has been a couple of months since he confided his problem to me, but he has done nothing to try and correct it. I offered to go to the doctor with him, have joint therapy —
I even tried being a little extra kinky to see if it would help. He still refuses to see a doctor or go to therapy. I’m completely stumped and unsure what else to do. Any advice will truly be appreciated. — NEEDS LOVIN’ IN CALIFORNIA DEAR NEEDS LOVIN’: You have done everything you can do. Your husband may be embarrassed or afraid, which is why he’s avoiding going to a doctor. Be supportive, but you need to ask him what he plans to do about this — if anything -because the absence of physical affection is unfair to you. DEAR ABBY: My 14-yearold granddaughter “Lana” has unfriended me on Facebook twice during the last week. Her mother told me she has been unfriended, too, because Lana doesn’t want adults seeing what she’s doing on Facebook. How would you handle this? -- NANA IN OHIO DEAR NANA: I’d suggest that Lana’s mother tell her daughter that if she wants to continue on Facebook, she had better keep Mom and Grandma as friends. (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). External signs of wealth don’t tell the full story. It will be enlightening to consider why a person would crave a symbol to set them above the rest and to ponder your own relationship with status and materialism. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Socrates said we should eat to live, not live to eat. But with the sun in your sign, appetites are strong, especially your own. Being around healthy people will help you make healthy choices. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It’s nice to be praised, but you already get enough attention for what you do. Tell people that what you need now is the kind of attention you can put in your wallet. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Once you see things, you can’t un-see them. That’s why it’s good to be careful of where you go. Think about what you are likely to experience in a place before you venture inside. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Do
you think you might be stopping yourself from moving forward in some way? If every seed contains the secrets to growth inside it, then the planter’s job is simply to create the proper conditions and get out of the way. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Instead of shying away from what might bring you emotional discomfort, move through it. If there is hurt to be experienced, it will soon give way to something beautiful. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your elastic mind will go to the far reaches and then snap back home. As fun as imaginative solutions are to come up with, it’s probably the simple, practical thing that will help the most now. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Because you’re irresistibly drawn to a circuitous path, getting to your goal may seem to take forever. If you keep going, you’ll eventually get there and feel pretty good about it, too. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ll be more interested
in other people’s business than usual -- but you’re not exactly nosy. It’s more that you’re a student of human nature, and you really want to know whether your predictions are coming true! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). When you like someone, you go out of your way to see that person smile, alleviate their stress or make them feel comfortable. But doing this for someone you dislike or don’t know shows true nobility. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There are times when going over the past might help you make a better decision for the future, but this isn’t one of them. Your instincts are keen. Trust that you’ve learned your lessons, and make a move. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your success strategy is so simple. It’s only three steps: 1. Say what you’re going to do. 2. Do it. 3. Repeat. You’ll end the day with a feeling of accomplishment.

Corinth Coca-Cola Classic 10K BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com
Josh Whitehead had enough left in the tank. The third-time Corinth Coca-Cola Classic 10K entrant found another gear on the final turn to outlast defending champion Daniel Kirwa by four seconds in the 32nd annual event. Whitehead, who lives in Madison, Ala., and is a NASA contractor was, ironically, a near scratch. “I wasn’t sure if I would even get to do this,” said the 34-year old. “I finally got that victory.” Whitehead had run in the Big Sur Marathon in California on Sunday, then followed up by partaking in the Marshall Space Flight Center 5K in Huntsville, Ala., on Wednesday. “My legs weren’t back to 100 percent, but I have a good finishing kick,” said Whitehead. “If I was in contention I was just going to grit by teeth and go.” Kirwa won last year’s event with a time off 30:06. Whitehead was fifth, finishing in 32:20. Whitehead made his Classic 10K debut in 2011 — finishing third — thanks in part to friend and Shoals Running Team cohort Benny Phifer. “He talked me into running here,” said Whitehead. “I used to drive through Corinth going from Memphis to Rogersville, Ala., but had never even stopped here except to get gas.” Whitehead doesn’t run a lot of 10Ks, but has posted good times during those splits in marathons. Six days removed from running 26.2 miles, the first-time champion was just hoping to keep a good pace. “Daniel wasn’t making it easy,” he said of the defending champion, “but that made for a good pace for me.” The top two finishers were right together the en-

tire race, with Kirwa holding a slight lead before the two made the final turn for the finish line at the intersection of Foote and Polk Streets. Whitehead’s aforementioned finishing kick provided him with a foursecond victory. “The course is good when the weather is good and it was perfect today,” said Whitehead. “You don’t get temperatures like this in May ever.” ■ Tiffany Dudley of Starkville also knocked off the reigning champion to claim the Female Overall title in 37:23. Defending champion Zamzam Sangau finished fourth in 38:12 — 49 seconds off of her winning pace in 2012.
Dudley finished second in 2012 with a time of 37:39. ■ Bo Boatner of New Albany defended his Master’s title with a time of 33:13. The 42-year-old’s showing actually ranked fourth overall. Jane Shettles of Belden was the Female Masters winner after turning in a time of 41:32. ■ Grandmasters (50-plus) winners were Philip Brewer (40:02) of Cordova, Tenn., and Vickie Spickard (46:42) of Nashville, Tenn. The annual race saw a record 1,500 register for the 6.2-mile event, the 10th time the number has cracked 1,000 in 32 years. Of those 1,217 walkers/runners finished the course.

OLIVE BRANCH — Corinth put in seven runs during the third inning to roll to a 7-2 defeat of the Lewisburg Lady Patriots in Game 2 of the series. The win sends Corinth to their first appearance in the North Half Championship Series after falling to Houston in the quarterfinals in Class 4A Fast-Pitch last year.

With a walk of Haley Christian, Corinth visited the top of their batting lineup as Kramer moved home for a 5-0 lead.

Orb comes from up behind, takes victory at Kentucky Derby BY BETH HARRIS Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Way back in the pack heading into the final turn, Orb was calm even if his jockey wasn’t. Churning through a sloppy track that resembled creamy peanut butter, the bay colt picked up speed and, one by one, blew past rivals. By that time, jockey Joel Rosario knew he was aboard the Kentucky Derby winner. Orb powered to a 2½-length victory Saturday at Churchill Downs, giving trainer Shug McGaughey and Rosario their first Derby wins. “I was so far behind,” Rosario said. “He was very relaxed. It’s exactly what I wanted.” Rosario had Orb in the clear on the outside and they forged to the lead in deep stretch, with enough momentum to hold off 34-1 shot Golden Soul.
It was a popular victory before a crowd of 151,616, which poured enough late money on Orb to make him the 5-1 favorite, a position Revolutionary had owned most of the day. McGaughey, a 62-yearold native of Lexington, finally got the Derby win he had long sought. Orb was just his second starter since 1989, when he settled for second after Sunday Silence beat Easy Goer on a muddy track. “It means everything to me,” the Hall of Famer said. “I’ve always dreamed of this day and it finally came.” The race was dominated by closers. Golden Soul rallied from 15th to second, while Revolutionary was 18th at one point and finished third for trainer Todd Pletcher. Normandy Invasion finished fourth. Orb paid $12.80, $7.40 and $5.40. Golden Soul returned $38.60 and
$19.40, while Revolutionary paid $5.40 to show. Mylute was fifth, followed by Oxbow, Lines of Battle, Will Take Charge and Charming Kitten. Giant Finish was 10th, then came Overanalyze, Palace Malice, Java’s War, Verrazano, Itsmyluckyday, Frac Daddy, Goldencents, Vyjack and Falling Sky. The second leg of thoroughbred racing’s Triple Crown will be May 18 when the Preakness Stakes is held at Pimlico. The rain that pelted the track earlier in the day had stopped by the time 19 horses paraded to the post for the 139th Derby. While it created a gloppy surface, it didn’t seem to bother Orb, who had never previously run on a wet track. “I said, ‘A day like today might have cost me one Kentucky Derby, maybe it’ll turn around and help us today,” McGaughey said.
His triumph was a victory for the old school of racing, where a private trainer like McGaughey works exclusively for wealthy owners — in this case Stuart Janney and Ogden Mills “Dinny” Phipps. “The Phippses and Janneys has been my whole life for 20 some years now, and have really kind of given me everything I’ve got,” said McGaughey, who never lost his thick Southern drawl despite years of working in New York. “I’m extremely proud to be able to work with people such as this. To bring a day like today into their lives is just a huge, huge thrill for me. All I can do is just say thanks for the opportunity,” he said. First cousins Janney and 72-year-old Dinny Phipps, who are among the sport’s blue bloods that include the old-money Whitney and Vander-
bilt families, also got their first gold Derby trophy. “I just couldn’t be more delighted that we’re doing this together,” the 64-year-old Janney said. Phipps’ late father, Ogden, owned Easy Goer and undefeated Personal Ensign. Janney’s parents owned star filly Ruffian. “This horse’s bloodline goes back to our grandmother,” Janney said. “Dinny’s father was very instrumental in getting me to take over my parents’ horses 20 some years ago.” When the horses burst from the gates, Palace Malice and Mike Smith set a sizzling pace that couldn’t be sustained. On the far turn, the pack closed in on the leader, with Oxbow attacking from the inside and Normandy Invasion moving up on the outside to take the lead. Rosario positioned Orb in the clear on the out-
side and they reeled in Normandy Invasion in mid-stretch before surging clear.
History was denied on several fronts: ■ Pletcher’s Derby record fell to 1 for 36 after sending out a recordtying five horses for the second time in his career. Besides Revolutionary, Charming Kitten was ninth; Overanalyze was 11th; early pacesetter Palace Malice was 12th; and previously unbeaten Verrazano was 14th. ■ Rosie Napravnik’s bid to become the first woman jockey to win ended with a fifth-place finish aboard Mylute. It was still the highest finish by a woman rider, bettering her ninth-place showing two years ago. ■ Kevin Krigger failed in

his attempt to be the first black jockey to win since 1902. He rode Goldencents to a 17th-place finish for trainer Doug O’Neill, who won last year with I’ll Have Another. Rick Pitino owns 5 percent of the colt, who couldn’t deliver a horses/hoops double for the coach of the national champion Louisville basketball team. ■ D. Wayne Lukas missed out on becoming the oldest trainer to win at 77. He saddled two horses: Oxbow was sixth with 50-year-old Gary Stevens making a Derby comeback after seven years in retirement, and Will Take Charge was eighth. Orb was the second Derby starter for both Janney and Phipps, whose previous entries were in 1988 and ‘89. Their family wealth allows them to race the horses they breed, unlike the majority of current owners who are involved through partnerships that split up the exorbitant costs of the sport. “Take your time,” Phipps said, referring to the group’s way of doing things. “Let the horse bring you to the race.” The cousins’ grandfather, Henry Phipps, founded wealth management firm Bessemer Trust in 1907. Janney serves as chairman, while Dinny Phipps is its director. He also chairs The Jockey Club, which regulates the registration of thoroughbreds, while Janney is vice chairman.

Philly abortion murder trial has national impact as a chance to reach an audience beyond their regular followers. Those efforts were enhanced midway through the trial when abortion opponents used social media to accuse some national news outlets of a “blackout” of the case, resulting in increased news coverage. Certainly, there's been national attention. Beth Burkstrand-Reid, a University of Nebraska law professor who teaches courses about abortion and gender issues, says her students have been coming up to her before and after class to talk about the case. The horrific allegations against Gosnell — whose clinic was licensed but hadn't been inspected since 1993 — have prompted the abortionrights lobby to repudiate him as a “rogue operator” employing practices far outside the norm. “This was an incredibly horrible situation and when it came to light, he was somehow associated with the abortion community, which he's not,” said Elizabeth Nash of the Guttmacher Institute, a research group which supports abortion rights. “It's taking a long time for that message to get out. He does not represent abortion care in this country.” Anti-abortion groups are trying to make the case that he does, arguing that lax regulation and callous attitudes have allowed dangerous conditions to persist in many clinics. They also contend there's little practical difference between what Gosnell is charged with — killing four babies who were born alive — and a late-term abortion. The trial “shows people that abortion is about killing human beings that have arms and legs and
BY DAVID CRARY AND MICHAEL RUBINKAM Associated Press
For weeks, jurors in Philadelphia heard grim testimony about deaths and squalor at Dr. Kermit Gosnell's inner-city abortion clinic. While they listened, the murder case reverberated far beyond the courtroom, changing — at least for the moment — the tone of the national debate on abortion. Groups supporting legal access to abortion, after major successes in the 2012 national elections, find themselves on the defensive as they distance themselves from Gosnell. “All of us are appalled by the substandard illegal practices,” said Vicki Saporta, who as CEO of the National Abortion Federation represents hundreds of U.S. abortion clinics. “But to make the leap to say that's indicative of the state of abortion care throughout the U.S. is absolutely false.” Anti-abortion activists, in contrast, are energized by the case, citing it in fundraising appeals and renewed efforts to expand state restrictions on abortion. “It's very seldom we get such an opportunity to look at the realities of what's happening in abortion,” said Dr. Donna Harrison, president of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists. Gosnell, 72, is charged with killing five people — a patient and four viable babies that prosecutors say were born alive. Among scores of other counts, he also is accused of performing abortions after Pennsylvania's 24week limit. Jury deliberations began April 30 and are scheduled to resume Monday. Anti-abortion groups have seized on the case
in this case, a lot of attention has been focused on necks and spines that can be cut. They're alive and something has to be done to them to cause them to die,” said David O'Steen, executive director of the National Right to Life Committee. One anti-abortion group, Live Action, has used the case to publicize the latest in a series of undercover videos it has made at abortion clinics. “Gosnell Not Alone in Late-term Abortion Brutality,” declares a news release about videos which, according to Live Action president Lila Rose, show abortion providers discussing possible outcomes of late-term abortions that she depicts as infanticide. Another group, Americans United for Life, is using the case to bolster its promotion of state laws requiring abortion clinics to meet the same safety standards as outpatient surgical facilities. “You are going to see legislators taking a look at this horrific situation in Philadelphia and say, 'We do not want this in our state,'” said spokeswoman Kristi Hamrick. Anti-abortion activists were already feeling emboldened by the Republican electoral gains of 2010. Since then, GOPdominated state legislatures have passed more than 160 restrictive abortion measures — more than in the seven previous years combined, according to a tally by the Guttmacher Institute. In the 2012 election, abortion-rights supporters countered by accusing the GOP of waging a “war on women,” and some anti-abortion Republicans lost high-profile Senate races. Now the Gosnell case is providing abortion opponents with fresh ammuni-
tion as they seek tighter clinic regulations and additional restrictions on late-term abortions. For example, they are citing the case in urging Congress to ban abortions in Washington, D.C., beyond the 20th week of pregnancy, based on the disputed premise that a fetus can feel pain at that age. Eleven states already have so-called fetal pain laws, though only six are in force. Courts have blocked enforcement in three states, while in two states the measures have yet to take effect. Late-term abortions are relatively rare. According to federal data, about 92 percent of abortions are performed at 13 weeks of pregnancy or earlier. Some states are now targeting those earlystage abortions. New laws would ban most abortions
after 12 weeks in Arkansas and after six weeks in North Dakota. In Pennsylvania, the Gosnell case has already had a direct impact on policy. A law that took effect last year raised safety standards for abortion clinics, including requirements for wider hallways and doorways, bigger operating rooms, and fulltime nurses. The law also mandates unannounced inspections. Since the law's enactment, five of the state's 22 abortion clinics have closed, according to the Health Department, though reasons for the closures vary. Abortion-rights supporters say the Gosnell case illustrates the need for increased access to abortion services, not less. They argue that restrictions drive down the
number of reputable providers and force desperate, low-income women to turn to unsafe options, as was often the case before the Supreme Court's 1973 Roe v. Wade decision established a nationwide right to abortion. “The kinds of restrictions that the anti-choice lobby has been trying to put in place for years and years are the exact kinds of restrictions that keep people like Kermit Gosnell in business,” said Ilyse Hogue, president of NARAL Pro-Choice America. “Peeking at Gosnell's clinic is like peeking into U.S. history pre-Roe v. Wade.” Dr. Anne Davis, who is medical director for Physicians for Reproductive Health and provides abortions as part of her practice in New York City, says abortion is among the safest medical procedures.

The home is currently under restoration. became the headquarters of Major General Braxton Bragg and he stayed in it until the Confederates abandoned the city at the end of May, 1862. A week later it was the HQ of Major General Henry Halleck, the commander of the three Union armies which had so much to do with Bragg’s change of address. General John Bell Hood also used the house as his headquarters for a brief time in early 1865. In the wake of the disastrous Nashville campaign Hood’s Army of Tennessee stopped in Corinth for a few weeks to catch their breath. When they continued their retreat southward, Hood ordered the Tishomingo Hotel, filled with excess supplies, to be burned to the ground. The beautiful Corona College also went up in flames, on January 24, 1864, the day the Union occupation ended.
Lore has it that the Federals were the ones responsible for the fire, but I don’t buy into that story. There was a local boy by the name of W.E. Small who recalled the flames began hours after the troops had left, indicating that the blaze was probably some random, senseless, act of violence. Small recalled visiting the smoking ruins the next morning, “A man came along and asked to borrow my toy wagon I had with me. He said people were going to use the bricks to help rebuild the town.” Martin’s bricks would be used again. After the war the town was in need of repair and a carpenter with the talents of Martin Siegrist was kept busy. It took a few years for the money to start flowing again, but when it did, Martin’s buildings again became symbols of Corinth. At first he worked out of his home, but as business
picked up, he opened an office and workshop on Franklin Street, the current site of Biggers Hardware. In 1869, Martin, along with brick mason Robert Richie, built the imposing factory of the North Mississippi Cotton and Woolen Manufacturing Company. We knew it as the Corinth Machinery Building and it was the oldest documented industrial building in the state until it fell in a terrible wind storm last year. Next came a home and a store for prosperous merchant Abe Ruble. The store on “Ruble’s Corner” was another iconic building of Corinth, one fondly recalled by a number of our citizens. It sat on the corner of Cruise and Fillmore in the very spot where The Corinth House hotel had stood during the war. Today it is the site of the Corinth Academy of Cos-
metology. If you’d like to see Martin’s work in present day Corinth, it is not hard to find. The Verandah House and the Ruble home are still standing as is perhaps his most beautiful work of all -- the Fillmore Street Chapel. The Gothic Revival architecture and the exquisite stain glass windows make it a true treasure of Corinth. My biggest disappointment in researching this piece was not being able to find a photograph of the man. It would have been nice to let you see him. In the end I don’t think it is really necessary. Take a look around town. The talented carpenter from Switzerland left an enormous footprint on Corinth -- one not easy to miss.

Iuka’s antebellum Hammerly House a place of devotion, refuge RaNae Vaughn Historically Speaking
The Hammerly House is one of a few remaining antebellum cottages built in the earliest phase of European/ American settlement in the new town of Iuka. George P. Hammerly, a former Eastport merchant, bought the lot on West Quitman Street in Iuka where his house was erected in 1860.
The house is believed to have been originally built in 1847 in the town of Eastport and moved to Iuka by an ox team. Mr. Hammerly and his wife, Mary, were devout Methodists. They built a guest room in the yard which came to be called “The Prophet’s Chamber” because it was so often used by vis-
iting Southern Methodist ministers. Mr. Hammerly served as superintendent of the Methodist Church Sunday School for 50 years, and Mrs. Hammerly was renowned for her 45 years of Tuesday prayer meetings for Methodist women. The home was the scene of weekly prayer meetings during
the Civil War and for many years thereafter. Mr. Hammerly was an active participant in the civic affairs of Iuka. He was a member of the local Board of Aldermen, on which he served as Secretary and Treasurer. He also served on the Board of Trustees of the Iuka Female College and was
later on the Board for the Iuka Normal Institute. Mr. Hammerly was also one of the backers of the new Iuka Springs Hotel built in 1872 to replace the earlier hotel; this hotel was later called the Mineral Springs Hotel. During the morning after Please see HISTORY | 4B

Rules proposed for 2013-2014 hunting seasons Through the course of the 2012-2013 hunting seasons, I heard several sportsmen comment about changes they would like to see made for the new slate of hunting seasons beginning next fall. As one would expect, most of the comments were geared toward rule and regulation changes pertaining to deer hunting. The comments covered a wide range of issues such as making it legal to use bait, delaying the season opening and closing dates because of the appearance of a late arriving whit-tailed rut, and legalizing the use of modern firearms during any open gun season. One fellow
said he’d probably bow-hunt if he could use a crossbow. D e e r David s e a s o n Green had not e v e n Outdoors closed yet when someone called to fill me in on the possibility of a major hunting regulation change next year. He said debate was ongoing at the capital that, if the bill passes, would make it legal for hunters to be able to use the weapon of choice on private lands. The debate turned into the real deal and becomes law as of July1, 2013. Pas-
sage of the bill makes it lawful for Mississippi hunters to use a weapon of choice during any regular or special season for taking deer by means of primitive weapon on private lands, described as lands owned or by which hunting rights have been obtained. Hunters will be able to use high-powered rifles if they so choose instead of having to dust off the ole muzzle-loader, or so-called primitive weapons like the .444 and the .45-70. However, those kinds of weapons will still be required in hunting during the primitive weapons seasons on public lands such as Wildlife Management Areas, national for-
ests and national wildlife refuges. The passage of the bill would seem to make it easier for more people to get involved in the sport of deer hunting, but there is one catch. Hunters who are not exempt from having to buy a hunting license must purchase either a primitive weapon permit or a Sportsman’s license. At a monthly public meeting held on April 17, the Mississippi Commission on Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks was presented with a set of proposed rules for the 2013-2014 hunting seasons from officials with the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisher-
ies, and Parks. The rules set forth in the presentation dealt with whitetailed deer, turkey, and small game hunting seasons, as well as changes to Wildlife Management Area rules. All proposals made during the April meeting can be viewed by logging onto www.mdwfp.com. The rules are available for public comment for a period of 30 days. Individuals may comment on these proposed actions in writing. All comments should be addressed to: Executive Director, Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries, and Parks, 1505 Eastover Drive, Jackson, Mississippi, 39211. Comments
must be received no later than May 24, 2013. A person may not get everything he or she desires in life, but if you don’t speak up and share ideas to get the ball rolling, there’s very little chance favorable outcomes will roll your way. Positive change comes through action. (Daily Corinthian columnist and Alcorn County resident David Green is an avid hunter and fisherman in the Crossroads area.

Technological options abound for weddings BY MARIAH SMITH Extension Center for Technology Outreach
Technology has integrated itself so far into our daily lives that it is even making its way down the aisles at weddings. The concept may be a little difficult to embrace, but there are some aspects that may appeal even to traditionalists like me. If family members insist on inviting the black sheep or other unwanted guests, couples can invite them to Skype into the wedding ceremony. Skype also can solve transportation challenges. I’ve heard of a bridesmaid who couldn’t make it to the wedding so Skype enabled a groomsman to carry her down the aisle on an iPad. If you need a task for your second cousin once removed, consider making her the official Twitter correspondent for the wedding. Her job would be to update the world as the wedding unfolds, but don’t forget an all-important hash tag for the occasion such as “#weddedbliss.” In the past, many couples have used websites to get information out, but more often these days couples are opting for social media platforms, such as a Facebook page, so family and guests can chat and upload photos to one central location. The favors for guests to take home can be tech related as well. Out with the tiny bubble bottles or chocolate-covered almonds, and in with a song from iTunes or an e-book. Place the link to the song or e-book on the back of the place card or envelope, and you have a very unique way for guests to remember your special day.
Google is getting in on the special day with http://www.google.com/ weddings/, which is a one-stop shop for website hosting, to-do lists that can be shared with others and easily accessed, and sharing photos with Picasa, Google’s online photo album. Google weddings include templates for budgets, wedding seating and guest lists. If you are tired of endless online searches to find the ideal floral arrangement, check out the new Internet search engine that only returns wedding results. Access it at http://lover.ly/. Many couples are streaming their wedding ceremonies live on their websites using software such as Ustreamtv.com, while others are taking the more traditional approach and simply placing iPads around the room so guests can update photos from the reception for others to enjoy. On the subject of breaking with tradition, many couples are opting out of the gift table. Instead, they are choosing online registries and simply having the gifts sent directly to their homes. Brides are also getting used to planning their weddings on the go with convenient wedding apps such as the Knots’ http:// tinyurl.com/knotweddingapp for iPhone or iPad. Other apps, such as WedPics, give guests the ability to take photos with their smartphones, apply filters and upload them all to one photo album. Technology can play a role in your wedding and make the big day special. Just remember when it comes to technology, anything can happen, so keep it simple and have a backup plan.

Emmett Till family calls for meeting with Lil Wayne BY CHRIS TALBOTT AP Music Writer
NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The family of Emmett Till says a letter from Lil Wayne fell short of an apology for his crude reference to the civil rights martyr, and they want a meeting with the rapper and representatives from PepsiCo to discuss their commercial partnership. A publicist for the Rev. Al Sharpton says he is attempting to arrange a meeting between the parties to work out differences over Wayne’s vulgar reference to Till in a song lyric. Wayne has a contract to promote PepsiCo product Mountain Dew. Lil Wayne’s letter, which appears on Young Money Entertainment letterhead and was provided to The Associated Press by the family, offered empathy and outlined corrective measures regarding the offensive lyrics in the song, but stopped short of apologizing. “I was not impressed,” said Airickca GordonTaylor, a cousin of Till’s.
Gordon-Taylor said it was disappointing because there was no apology, it came more than 75 days after the song hit the Internet and it actually was leaked on the Internet before the family received it. Wayne’s representatives tell the family there was an attempt to hand deliver the letter. “I think that he’s kind of been pressured or he’s been admonished to make a statement to the family because of the ongoing negative publicity and attention and the pressure we’ve put onto his endorsement with Mountain Dew,” she said in a phone interview from Chicago. “I feel like it was an acknowledgment. He has finally, publicly acknowledged the ongoing outcry. It was not an apology. ... However, I think it’s a start. I think the door is now open for us to have a sit-down, to have a dialogue.” The New Orleans rapper made the brief offensive reference to Till in a guest appearance on Future’s song “Karate Chop”
Cryptoquip
earlier this year. In just seven words, he refers to beating someone during a sexual act and uses an obscenity. He says he wants to do as much damage as was done to Till. The black teen from Chicago was in Mississippi visiting family in 1955 when he was killed — allegedly for whistling at a white woman. He was beaten, had his eyes gouged out and was shot in the head before his assailants tied a cotton gin fan to his body with barbed wire and tossed it into the Tallahatchie River. Two white men, including the woman’s husband, were acquitted by an all-white jury. Till’s body was recovered and returned to Chicago where his mother, Mamie Till, insisted on having an open casket at his funeral. The pictures of his battered body helped push civil rights into the cultural conversation. The Rev. Jesse Jackson reached out to Epic Records on the family’s behalf when the song leaked
on the Internet in February and its chairman, LA Reid, apologized. At the time, GordonTaylor, founding director of the Mamie Till Mobley Memorial Foundation, asked Wayne to apologize. He has made no comment, though Jackson described him as cooperative. Sharpton became involved because he is upset with Wayne’s comments, his publicist said. GordonTaylor wants to discuss immediate corrective action with Wayne and also help ensure that the legacy of Till is properly remembered. She says it’s about more than the Till family — making sure that lyricists are held responsible for what they say and the message it sends. The letter, addressed “Dear Till Family,” appeared on the Internet this week. “It has come to my attention that lyrics from my contribution to a fellow artist’s song has deeply offended your family,” Wayne writes.
“As a father myself, I cannot imagine the pain that your family has had to endure. I would like to take a moment to acknowledge your hurt, as well as the letter you sent me via your attorneys.” Wayne says moving forward he will not reference Till or the family in his music “especially in an inappropriate manner.” He tells the family he supports Epic’s decision to take down the unauthorized version of the song and to not include the reference in the official version. He also says he has removed the song from his catalog and will not perform it live. “I have tremendous respect for those who paved the way for the liberty and opportunities that African-Americans currently enjoy,” Wayne writes. He concludes, “my ultimate intention is to uplift rather than degrade our community.” He signs the letter with his real name, Dwayne Michael Carter Jr. Wayne’s publicist said
Thursday night that there would be no immediate comment. This is not the only time a rapper’s advertising partner has felt pressure in recent weeks. PepsiCo this week pulled a Mountain Dew commercial directed by Odd Future leader Tyler, the Creator, that was deemed offensive for its portrayal of black people and violence against women. And Rick Ross lost his deal with Reebok last month after he rapped about raping a woman who had been incapacitated by drugs. Ross apologized for the lyrics. Gordon-Taylor said her family was disturbed by Tyler’s Mountain Dew commercial, especially in light of recent problems with Wayne’s lyrics. “It goes full circle and comes back to accountability and responsibility,” she said. “(Company officials) have to be held accountable or responsible for what they are promoting, for what they’re attaching themselves to.”
Angelou honors mother and grandmother in latest book BY LEANNE ITALIE Associated Press
NEW YORK — Writer, actor, dancer. Activist, teacher, composer. In the melange of Maya Angelou’s 85 years is also daughter, of two women who deserved one with a good memory. So Angelou writes in her latest literary memoir, “Mom & Me & Mom,” a sweet ode to “Lady,” her mother Vivian Baxter, and “Momma,” her paternal grandmother Annie Henderson, who took her in at age 3 in tiny, segregated Stamps, Ark., and returned her at age 13, when the time was right. Baxter, rough-andtumble poor from St. Louis, and Henderson, refined believer in southern etiquette, are both long gone but figure big in Angelou’s legendary life. The fierce and fun Vivian was Angelou’s abandoner and, later, her most loyal protector. She and Annie are familiar to admirers of the poet and spinner of autobiographical fiction. It’s Angelou’s eighth book to unravel her often painful and tumultuous life, including the 1969 National Book Award winner “I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings,” chronicling her rape as a girl that left her mute for five years. A conversation with Maya Angelou: AP: Where does this book fit into your cycle of autobiography? Is this a completion of sorts? Angelou: Well, I don’t want to say that because it sounds like it’s The End. I don’t want to do that to myself. I had been trying to write it for about 25 or 30 years, but it wasn’t ready to be written. I wasn’t ready to write it. When it came it was right. My mom had said she wanted my brother to write it, and I knew he wasn’t going to. I’m sorry to say drugs had so taken him over. AP: This is a story about forgiveness. How did you come to that point with your mother? Angelou: I began to like her. I liked the fact that she didn’t laugh at peo-
ple. She had everything. You know, she was pretty, she was young, she had money. She had respect, and when she saw people who were poor, who were crippled or uncomfortable in their skin, she didn’t laugh at them, and I liked that in her. It was a big heart. AP: What are some of the revelations in this book, about yourself and your relationship with your mother? Angelou: Well, I didn’t know I loved her. I just didn’t know I loved her, until I loved her. I’m not trying to be clever or mystic, but I mean I admired her. I got on with her. But I guess when I really began to see that I loved her, it was because she could make me laugh. And she had once tried so hard to make me laugh and I couldn’t. I wouldn’t. I was pregnant when I realized that I loved her. She just didn’t do anything that girls’ mothers did. She didn’t put me down. She didn’t make fun of me. AP: You went through a lot as a young, single mother. What role did your mother play during those years? Angelou: At one point, Guy was about 3, maybe 4, and I had told him never to go into my purse. Every penny had to be accounted for as far as I was concerned. And I found one day he was chewing gum, so I asked him where did you get the gum. He said out of your purse. So I said you went into my purse? ‘Yes, I wanted the gum.’ So I got a switch from a tree outside, and I pulled his pants down and I spanked him with the switch. And he just looked at me and said, ‘But don’t you love me anymore? Ain’t this your baby?’ And of course it just broke my heart. I said, ‘Well I hope you’ll never do that again.’ He said, ‘And I hope you won’t, either.’ I said, ‘You had lip and I’ve just given you a seeing-to and you still have lip?’ And he said, ‘I mean, do you realize how big you are. I’m only 4 years old or something.’ My
mother, who was in the house, heard all of this and she asked, ‘So what will you do?’ I said, ‘Well I’ll never hit him again.’ She said, ‘That’s smart.’ AP: How did your upbringing affect you as a parent? Angelou: Guy Johnson is a wonder. He’s been physically challenged. He was paralyzed from his neck down at one point. The doctors had told me your son, he will never move again, he will never walk again. I said my son will walk out of this hospital. I walked into the intensive care and my son said, ‘Mom, that which I feared is upon me.’ I can hear it now and this is 40 years later. He said, ‘Mom, I have to ask you a favor no one should ever ask their mother. I know I’m your only child. I know you love me, but if there’s no recovery I refuse to live as a talking head. Will you pull the plug?’ I started shouting. At the top of my voice I said, ‘In that case, recovery. I see you swimming. I see you walking. I see you dancing. And I thank God for it, and I’m claiming it loudly.’ And he said, ‘Mom, please, control yourself. There’s some sick people in this place,’ which of course made me laugh. He did walk out of the hospital. AP: Were you channeling Vivian at the time? Angelou: I guess so. AP: Is that her gift to you? Angelou: I guess so. I never thought of that until this minute. I guess so. AP: Her strength? Angelou: Yep. AP: Where would you be without it? Angelou: I don’t know. I can’t even think of what I’d be without it. All I’ve done. I mean, you know, it sounds like I’m bragging. Well maybe I am, but I don’t mean it, but you know a black girl growing up in a village like Stamps, Ark. You know, I just look at all the things, and so much of it is because of Vivian Baxter. She said if you want it, get it. Do it.
