People of the Crossroads
Randy J. Williams, FarmingtonPhotographer Randy “Hurricane Flash” Williams is most comfort-able viewing the world through the eyes of a carefully trained lens. A regular photo contributor to Daily Corinthian and Crossroads Magazine, the 28-year-old credits photography with saving his life. After withdrawing from college in 2012 due to severe migraines, the Rienzi native found himself adrift. “I initially started shooting games to support my brother, Darrien “Squirt” Williams. It was the only thing that really kept me sane at the time,” he said. “I love sports, especially basketball. Covering games on big stages has been a dream since I started sports pho-tography.” A 2006 Biggersville High School graduate, Randy also holds a B.S. degree in Business Technol-ogy Education from Mississippi State University.
Paying it forward, Belk of Corinth is kicking off spring with their Semi-Annual Spring Charity Sale.
Planned for 6 to 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 30, the charity shopping event will benefi t lo-cal charities, schools and non-profi t organizations through-out the Crossroads area.
Those who purchase a $5 coupon from any participat-ing charity will be rewarded with $5 off their purchase of specially discounted items, including rarely discounted designer brands.
An excellent tool for fund-raising, the four-hour private,
ticketed event will give cus-tomers piece of mind know-ing they are doing their part to help others in need.
“The organizations keep 100 percent of the money raised from ticket sales,” Store Manager Becca Huff .

The Mississippi Supreme Court upheld an Alcorn County Circuit Court verdict in favor of the defense in a civil lawsuit stemming from a November 2011 multiple-fatality crash on U.S. Highway 72.
The decision handed down Thursday affi rms the lower court’s directed verdict in fa-vor of TLSL, Inc., of Walnut, the owner of an 18-wheeler in-volved in the crash, and Ran-dall S. Walker of Corinth, the driver of the tractor trailer. Al-leging wrongful death, Ana Glo-ria Moreno of Morgan County, Ala., sought compensatory and punitive damages in the De-cember 2014 jury trial.
The accident happened on the highway at County Road 747 in western Alcorn County near the Tippah County line at about 5:15 a.m. Three men were pronounced dead at the scene — Arnoldo Moreno, 29; Juan A. Estrada, 35; and Jose P. Gar-cia-Guillen, 35. A fourth per-son was also in the 2006 GMC pickup, which collided with the rear of the tractor trailer after it entered the highway.
The lawsuit alleged that the tractor trailer had not been properly inspected to deter-mine if the braking and lighting systems were in proper work-ing order. On appeal, Moreno argued that the trial court erred

Challenge to stay warm Zone Fitness employee Hannah Gann bundles up to stay warm before the start of the Crossroads Fitness Challenge Color Run at Crossroads Regional Park. The temperature went from the 80s earlier in the week to the high 40s on Saturday with a stiff breeze out of the north.
“In addition to a private sale just for our contrib-uting customers, we will be giving away several gift cards. The fi rst 100 customers to arrive at our store the morning of the charity sale will receive a Belk gift card ranging in value from $5 to $100.”
Belk’s Spring and Fall Charity events are the sin-gle largest sale events oth-er than Black Friday. Cus-tomers who are unable to attend may pre-sell their merchandise prior to the event and return to pick up their purchases after the event ends at 10 a.m.
“Many local charities have benefi ted from the Belk Charity event,” said Charity Captain Angela Warren. “The Knights of Columbus reported they were able to provide 60 needy children with Christmas this past year. The Four Seasons Garden Club was able to donate coats to the Pinevale Chil-dren’s Home and donate to the AMEN food pantry.”
“This event has also helped Havis’ Kids raise money for their Disney trips,” she continued.
“Several school organiza-tions have raised money for band, cheerleading and dance teams. Lo-cal churches have raised money for youth trips and other church events. Soft-ball leagues and travel sports teams have ben-efi ted as well.”
Off ered twice a year, Belk Charity Sale tick-ets are now available to non-profi t organizations for sale in advance of the event.
There is no limit to the number of organizations that can participate, the number of tickets they can sell, or the amount of money they can raise, so everyone benefi ts.
All local charities, schools, and churches are encouraged to participate in this one-of-a-kind fund raising event.

Today in
History
Today is Palm Sunday, March 20, the 80th day of 2016. There are 286 days left in the year. Spring arrives at 12:30 a.m. Eastern time.
Today’s Highlight in History:
On March 20, 1816, the U.S. Supreme Court, in Martin v. Hunter’s Lessee, unanimously af-firmed its right to review state court decisions under the Judiciary Act of 1789.
On this date:
In 1727, physicist, mathematician and as-tronomer Sir Isaac New-ton died in London.
In 1815, Napoleon Bonaparte returned to Paris after escaping his exile on Elba, beginning his “Hundred Days” rule.
In 1852, Harriet Beecher Stowe’s influen-tial novel about slavery, “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” was first published in book form after being serialized.
In 1899, Martha M. Place of Brooklyn, New York, became the first woman to be executed in the electric chair as she was put to death at Sing Sing for the murder of her stepdaughter.
In 1922, the decom-missioned USS Jupiter, converted into the first U.S. Navy aircraft carrier, was recommissioned as the USS Langley.
In 1933, the state of Florida electrocuted Giuseppe Zangara for shooting to death Chi-cago Mayor Anton J. Cer-mak at a Miami event at-tended by President-elect Franklin D. Roosevelt, the presumed target, the previous February.
In 1952, the U.S. Sen-ate ratified, 66-10, the Treaty of Peace with Japan.
In 1986, the Dow Jones industrial aver-age closed above 1,800 for the first time, at 1,804.24.
In 1995, in Tokyo, 12 people were killed, more than 5,500 others sickened when packages containing the deadly chemical sarin were leaked on five separate subway trains by Aum Shinrikyo cult members.

Police say woman harbored fugitives
BOONEVILLE — Tiffa-ny Benson 33, of Boon-eville was arrested and charged with hindering pros-ecution and render-ing crimi-nal assis-tance.
The charge stems from a search for fugitives Dal-ton Franks and Ashley Trujillo.
Benson lied to of-ficers when they were searching for Franks and Trujillo. The pair was dis-covered and arrested in her home.
Benson’s bond has been set at $2,500.
Panel backs Shiloh preservation bill
SHILOH, Tenn. — U.S. Congresswoman Marsha Blackburn of West Tennessee is get-ting closer to getting a bill passed that would extend preservation at multiple areas near the Shiloh National Military Park, according to a press release her office released last week.
The Shiloh National Military Park Boundary Adjustment Act passed through the House Natu-ral Resources Commit-tee on Wednesday.
“Over two bloody days in early April of 1862, over 23,000 Americans gave their lives at the Battle of Shiloh. General Grant’s army would be victorious as Confeder-ate forces withdrew toward Mississippi. To-day there are important battlefields that have yet to be included in the national park boundary,” said Blackburn.
The bill would give the National Park Service the authority to preserve more than 2,100 ad-ditional acres of the historic Shiloh National Military Park at the Fallen Timbers, Russell House and Davis Bridge battlefields.
“This legislation will ensure the legacy of the sacrifices made at Shiloh will be preserved
for future generations to appreciate and experi-ence,” said Blackburn, whose district includes the Shiloh area in Hardin County.
“Over 500,000 people visit Shiloh each year. Expanding the park to include these battlefields will create an even stron-ger incentive for people to visit the area and learn about Tennessee’s rich history,” she said.
Town mulls making changes to charter
ADAMSVILLE — A pos-sible change in the char-ter for the city of Adams-ville could lead to more power for the city admin-istrator. The Tennessee Legislature will have to approve the changes in the charter made by the city commission.
Adamsville’s City Board approved the changes in the charter on March 8. The pro-posed changes failed to get enough votes to pass during the February city meeting.
The proposed new charter would allow the city administrator to be the head of all operating functions of the City of Adamsville. This would allow Steve Simon, city administrator, to have the authority to hire and fire all city personnel.
Simon would become the town’s chief financial officer and he would put together a personnel policy. This policy would have to be approved by the city commission to make official.
The new charter would enable Simon to control daily operations for the city and report to the city commission.
An amendment to the charter will state the administrator and mayor will have to sign all checks from the city. The check sign-ing requirement in the past was they had to be signed by the mayor and city recorder.
An administrator would be required to live in Adamsville before one year is up after they have been hired.
Police: Firefighter drove truck drunk
TUPELO — Authori-ties in Mississippi say
a firefighter has been arrested on suspicion of driving a firetruck while drunk.
Lee County Sheriff Jim Johnson said 34-year-old Phillip W. Gasaway, a member of the Unity Fellowship Volunteer Fire Department, lost control of the firetruck while re-sponding to a grass fire Thursday night.
Gasaway was arrested on a charge of driving under the influence and is scheduled to appear in court on April 16, au-thorities said.
Gasaway said he swerved off a county road to avoid an oncom-ing car.
It wasn’t immediately clear if Gasaway has an attorney.
Judges will assign litter cleanup duty
IUKA — The Tishom-ingo County Board of Su-pervisors have approved a work program which will allow justice court judges to sentence of-fenders to a community work program.
Judges will assign of-fenders to work details to help with litter pickup duty on Tishomingo County roads.
The program is ex-pected to begin after the first court date in April.
Those sentenced to roadside trash cleanup will work with county work crews.
Supervisors said they like the idea of the com-munity service program and they could use 20 people right now to help cleanup trashy road-sides throughout Tisho-mingo County.
Booneville officials continue planning
BOONEVILLE — Boon-eville leaders are moving forward with develop-ment of a comprehen-sive plan for the future of the city.
Aldermen heard Tues-day from Mike Slaughter with Slaughter and As-sociates Urban Planning Consultants, who laid out the process for de-velopment of the city’s comprehensive plan. The company was hired earlier this year by the city to help create the plan.
Slaughter explained
the goal is to create an overall plan looking as much as 25 years into the future for zoning, land use, infrastructure, city and community fa-cilities and all other as-pects of the community. He said the work has already begun as his firm obtains and reviews existing documents.
The next step will be meetings first with city officials and depart-ment heads. They will then meet with civic and community leaders from business, schools, healthcare facilities, community organizations and others. Later they will seek the same feed-back from all citizens in a series of community meetings.
Working with the city they will then take the data and create a pro-posed plan of future goals, possible zoning and ordinance changes and other items to help the city move toward its long term goals.
IRS scam reported in Prentiss County
BOONEVILLE — Pren-tiss County and sur-rounding counties have been targeted by a scam artist using the Internal Revenue Service to threaten and intimidate people into believing they owe back or delin-quent taxes and if they don’t follow the caller’s instructions that they will be arrested.
“We have been inun-dated with calls for the last several days and weeks with reports of citizens receiving such calls,” said Sheriff Ran-dy M. Tolar. “We caution everyone to use good judgement and if they receive a call like this to simply hang up and not be drawn into conversa-tion with them.”
“They can be very per-sistent,” he added.
Residents are advised that the IRS doesn’t op-erate like that.
“So far we haven’t had any reports of anyone falling for the scam,” said Tolar. “We also are
continuing to receive reports of the Sweep-stakes or Lottery Scam.”
Those who receive a call saying they have won money are also asked to hang up.
Columbus will hold Spring Pilgrimage
COLUMBUS — Warm-ing temperatures, spring blossoms and a growing, palpable excitement sig-nal that an annual, high-ly anticipated event is just around the corner.
Visitors from around the globe will converge on the Friendly City March 28-April 9, when “The City that Has it All” hosts the 76th Spring Pilgrimage. This 13-day event celebrates the best in historic Southern architecture, culture, food and fun.

Our View
It’s been a decade since the Corinth-Alcorn Reaching for Excellence (CARE) Community Foundation launched its Forever Green Ini-tiative to plant new hardwood trees in the Corinth Downtown Historic District.
There is a new push to bring fresh light to this important program which deserves our attention and consideration.
And the best part? The initiative will han-dle all the details to get trees planted in the Corinth historic district.
“We really want to make a strong push this year,” Sandy Williams, CARE chairman, re-cently told the Daily Corinthian. “We want to try to maintain by replacement. We need to keep the great tree canopy of the historic district.”
We agree.Forever Green will handle all the details,
including the selection, location, planting and will even pay at least one-half of the ex-pense. CARE Executive Director Mona Lisa Grady will handle all the details.
The homeowner will only be out a maxi-mum of $100 per tree and will be asked to do two simple things — protect the tree and see it is watered during its fi rst year.
The time is now as March is a good time to plant a tree.
The program prefers red oak and shu-mard oak trees due to the large canopy they provide, but they won’t work in some cases. Dogwood trees work well under power lines because they don’t grow tall. Other popular requests include sugar maple and red maple due to the beautiful fall color the trees pro-vide.
Homeowners can submit their preferred species and location, both of which are sub-ject to approval set forth by the initiative.
The historic district is defi ned as the areas between Tate Street and Seventh Street and Washington Street and Kilpatrick Street.
Many people have sponsored trees to be planted and as a result, 11 trees have been planted around the Alcorn County Court-house.
Of the 41 trees planted during the initia-tive, most have been oaks and maples.
All of the tree options available in the pro-gram were recommended by the Federal Emergency Management Agency and South-ern Urban Forestry Associates who managed the removal and replacement of trees after the severe ice storm in the 1990s.
Each species was deemed optimal for “street planting,” meaning roots grow deep to keep from damaging sidewalks and asphalt.
There are so many benefi ts to trees in the historic district, such as shade during the summer and root systems which help slow fl ooding.
Another factor for homeowners to consider is a tree replacement program.
If an aging tree is nearing its demise, peo-ple are encouraged to plant a new tree and it will have some growth before the older tree is lost.
Residents are encouraged to plant trees in honor or in memory of friends or family members.
We would like to see Corinth, “Forever Green.”

A verse to share
As what has in some ways been the strangest presi-dential election in modern U.S. history continues to unfold, the television talk-ing heads continue to throw the terms “contested” or “brokered” Republican con-vention around as if every-one in the country under-stands those terms.
It’s clear that most Amer-icans have a vague idea, but the specifi c mechanics are lost on most people.
A “brokered” or “contest-ed” convention results if no Republican – say current frontrunner Donald Trump – can win an outright ma-jority of delegates prior to the fi rst vote by delegates at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland this summer.
It takes 1,237 delegates to win the Republican nomina-tion. Delegates are chosen by diff erent methods – some primaries are “winner take all” meaning the candidate with the most votes gets every delegate available in that primary. Other prima-ries result in delegates being awarded on a proportional basis, with the leader getting the most delegates and the losers getting proportional numbers according to how they placed.
The process binds del-egates to vote on the fi rst convention ballot for the
c a n d i d a t e that won their primary on the basis that the fi rst-vote delegate status was a w a r d e d . If no can-didates can get to 1,237
on the fi rst ballot, then the convention changes from a coronation to a free-for-all that is – in great measure – settled away from the glare of the TV lights.
In other words, the del-egates after the fi rst vote are “unbound” and the wheeling and dealing com-mences. The second bal-lot commences, then the third, then the fourth, until one candidate can cobble together the winning num-ber of delegates to earn the party’s nomination.
But that’s the very basic defi nition of what happens in a brokered convention. Perhaps the most impor-tant factor is the conven-tion rules and the ability of the party to change those rules. Changing the rules can bring about political cataclysm as well – and perhaps launch third party or rump group candidates outside the traditional GOP footprint.
Mississippians have been part of national political
party convention squabbles before. Mississippi Demo-crats split badly between the so-called “Regular” Democrats and the “Free-dom Democrats” in 1964 in a battle over delegate le-gitimacy that represented a real danger to Lyndon Johnson’s ability to win the South.
Mississippi Republicans split badly in 1976 over dele-gate loyalty to President Ger-ald Ford and a former actor named Ronald Reagan.
After assuming the presidency following the 1974 resignation of Presi-dent Richard Nixon in the depths of the Watergate scandal, Ford began in 1975 to seek the 1976 Republican nomination for president that would culminate at the Kansas City GOP National Convention.
In Mississippi, Reagan had earlier won support from Clarke Reed, then-state Sen. Charles Pickering of Laurel and Jackson oil-man W.D. “Billy” Moung-er. Ford was supported by then-U.S. Rep. Thad Cochran, 1975 Mississippi gubernatorial nominee Gil Carmichael of Meridian and then-Jackson City Commis-sioner Doug Shanks.
But when Reagan chose liberal Pennsylvania U.S. Sen. Richard Schweiker as his running mate, Reed de-
fected to the Ford camp and other Mississippi delegates would follow.
Nationally, the Ford-Rea-gan battle for the nomina-tion was almost dead even and both candidates began to scour the country for uncommitted delegates to the convention. Because of the so-called “unit rule” – which required that the candidate who had the sup-port of the majority of the state’s 30 delegates got all 30 votes – a procedural vote on a Reagan-backed con-vention rules change was the showdown vote.
Mississippi’s 30 votes went against the rules change and Reagan’s bid for the nomination was eff ec-tively dead in 1976.
The common denomi-nator in brokered conven-tions? Somebody always, always leaves with the feel-ings hurt. In the Mississippi examples I cited, some of those political wounds in-fl icted during those contest-ed conventions never really healed.
Certainly, that could very well be the likeliest outcome in a 2016 brokered GOP convention.
(Daily Corinthian colum-nist Sid Salter is syndicated across the state. Contact him at 601-507-8004 or [email protected].)
How does ‘brokered’ convention work?
Can Donald Trump be stopped from winning the Republican nomination?
The answer is yes. De-spite his big win over Marco Rubio in Florida and his narrow wins over Ted Cruz in Illinois, Missouri and North Carolina, he has not won a majority of delegates yet awarded – 661 at this writing, with several more to be added when Missouri and Illinois congressional district totals are tabulated.
Any candidate needs to get a 1,237-delegate ma-jority to be nominated. To get there, Trump needs to get a majority of delegates in the contests ahead. The March 15 results show how that could happen. For Re-publican voters who fear Trump’s nomination will damage the party, the na-tion or both, the question is what to do about it.
Such voters amount to a majority or near-majority of the Republican primary and caucus electorate, which, as Trump has correctly noted, is substantially larger than in past presidential election cycles.
Trump has won 37 per-cent of their votes. Contrary to his suggestions, he hasn’t won huge majorities from fi rst-time voters. But that’s given him 47 percent of the delegates. To see why, look at the March 15 results. If Ted Cruz had won the votes
cast for either John Kasich or Marco Ru-bio in Illinois, Missouri and North Caroli-na, he would have beaten Trump and deprived him of dozens of delegates.
Something like that hap-pened in Ohio. Marco Ru-bio, facing sure defeat in Florida, advised his Ohio supporters to vote for John Kasich. The Rubio vote there evaporated from 13 percent in a February poll to 3 percent.
“If the anti-Trump voters can fi nd a better way to co-ordinate behind one candi-date,” writes Harry Enten at FiveThirtyEight, “they can probably beat Trump in a lot of upcoming contests.” The obvious candidate is Ted Cruz. The only alter-native is John Kasich, who has won only in his home state. He would probably have dropped out after New Hampshire but for Rubio’s debate gaff e; Kasich’s 16 percent there was actually 1 percent less than the 2012 percentage for Jon Hunts-man, who dropped out days later.
On Tuesday night an ebullient Kasich said he was going to Philadelphia, though Pennsylvania’s pri-
mary is April 26, six weeks hence. The obvious reason: The Philadelphia suburbs have lots of upscale vot-ers, the only demographic among which Kasich has run well.
But the Philly suburbs cast only about one-fi fth of Pennsylvania primary votes. In Ohio, despite his local popularity, Kasich lost every county along the Pennsylvania and West Vir-ginia borders. He’s likely to do worse against Trump in demographically and at-titudinally similar western Pennsylvania, which casts as many votes as the Philly suburbs.
Why didn’t Kasich talk about traveling elsewhere? Because the contests be-tween now and April 26 are not in places favorable to him. He barely registered in a February poll in Wiscon-sin (voting April 5), where Republican suburbanites are much more conserva-tive than those in most Northern metro areas.
His boosters look to New York, which votes April 19. But its registered Republi-cans are less likely to be Ivy Leaguers liberal on cultural issues (they’re Democrats now) than Italian-Amer-ican homeowners angry about high property taxes and corrupt local govern-ments. Cruz might be com-petitive with Trump among
such voters. Kasich would just split the vote and give Trump more delegates, as he did in Illinois.
The fi nal big contest is California on June 7. What happens there if the anti-Trump vote is split can be seen by looking back to 2008, when California vot-ed early. John McCain won statewide with 42 percent, with the more conserva-tive Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee getting 35 and 12 percent. But most Cali-fornia delegates are chosen winner-take-all by congres-sional district, and with split opposition McCain carried 48 of the 53 districts and thus won 155 of 170 del-egates.
Many anti-Trump vot-ers dislike Ted Cruz and regard him as self-serving (like they regard most sena-tors). But if nominated his interests and the party’s will align, at least temporarily. Republicans who want to stop Trump need to hold their noses, if necessary, and vote for Cruz.

Associated PressNEW YORK — The scribbled,
cryptic doctor’s prescription is headed toward eradication in New York, where the nation’s toughest paperless-prescribing requirement takes eff ect this month.
Instead of handing patients slips of paper, physicians soon must electronically send or-ders directly to pharmacies for everything from antibiotics to cholesterol pills to painkillers, with some exceptions. Other-wise, prescribers face the pos-sibility of fi nes, license loss or even jail.
The requirement is meant to fi ght painkiller abuse, reduce errors and expand a practice that doctors and patients often fi nd convenient. But physicians say digital scripts can present roadblocks for some patients and doctors shouldn’t have to fear punishment over a pre-scription format.
“When it works, it’s seam-less,” says New York County Medical Society President Dr. Michael T. Goldstein, an oph-thalmologist who issues many prescriptions electronically himself. “But there are circum-
stances where it doesn’t work, and patients suff er.”
E-prescribing has surged nationwide in recent years amid a push to digitize medi-cal records. About 60 percent of scripts are now sent electroni-cally, said Paul Uhrig, chief administrative offi cer of Sure-scripts, the leading network for transmitting e-prescriptions.
Every state now allows e-prescribing, but only New York has a broad requirement that carries penalties. Minnesota re-quires the use of electronic pre-scribing but doesn’t specify how much or set penalties.
Digital prescribing thwarts prescription-slip forgery and theft and saves time for patients who otherwise have to drop off scripts. The secured systems also let doctors look up a pa-
tient’s other medications and insurance particulars before or-dering a drug.
The convenience appeals to patients like Christine Smith, a 44-year-old mother of two from Plainview, on New York’s Long Island.
“I like them sending it, so I don’t have to carry it. It’s one less responsibility for me to worry about,” she said.
Studies have found that elec-tronic prescribing reduces med-ication errors, partly because pharmacists don’t have to deci-pher prescribers’ handwriting. Messy writing causes some of the medication errors that kill at least one person per day and injure 1.3 million nationwide each year, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
“It is a good thing to make
electronic prescribing ever more available,” but not to re-quire it all the time, says Ameri-can Medical Association Presi-dent Dr. Steven Stack.
Patients, for instance, could accidentally have prescriptions sent to the wrong pharmacy or to one that has closed or out of stock by the time they arrive. Instead of taking a piece of pa-per to another pharmacy, pa-tients have to get the doctor to re-issue the prescription or the pharmacy to transfer it.
It’s also harder for patients to shop around for medica-tion deals when a script is in a pharmacy’s system instead of in hand, says Dr. Joseph R. Mal-donado, president of the Medi-cal Society of the State of New York.
Carmel Danna is one of those shoppers, having found her out-of-pocket costs can vary widely between pharmacies.
Besides, “I prefer to have (a script) written because I can check it and make sure they did it right,” says Danna, 85, a re-tired secretary from Plainview.
To be sure, despite e-pre-scribing’s potential to improve accuracy, it’s not foolproof.
Some studies have suggested digital prescribing carries risks of its own, such as mistyping or choosing the wrong item from a drop-down menu. Minnesota health professionals review-ing their state’s e-prescribing progress noted some problems in changing and canceling pre-scriptions electronically, in-cluding a case in which a pa-tient doubled up on cholesterol drugs and died of the compli-cations, according to a presen-tation at the state’s e-Health Summit last year.
Offi cials and vendors say that they continue working to improve the systems. Mean-while, about 8 percent of New York’s 124,000 doctors, den-tists, nurse-practitioners and other prescribers have gotten extensions on the March 27 deadline.
Paper or phone prescriptions are allowed during emergen-cies, and health offi cials this week added new exceptions, such as nursing home staff ers phoning in prescriptions after-hours. The state Senate passed a proposal to exempt doctors who write very few prescrip-tions.
Doctors mixed as NY demands paperless prescribing“When it works, it’s seamless. But there are circumstances where it
doesn’t work, and patients suffer.”

Associated PressCLINTON — The Mississippi
Board of Education released a revised policy last week that for the fi rst time regulates when public school students statewide can be physically re-strained or placed in private spaces because of behavior problems.
The board approved the poli-cy Thursday, and the public can comment for the next 30 days. The board could vote as early as April to enact the policy. Mississippi is one of fi ve states without a policy or law to gov-ern the practices.
The restraint and seclusion rule has been a focus of a major lobbying eff ort since the state unveiled its fi rst draft last April.
People who wanted more safe-guards warned that the original rule didn’t do enough to curb abuses against children. Several praised the changes, saying state Superintendent Carey Wright had heard their concerns.
“They took a lot of our input, so we’re pleased,” said Mandy Rogers of Parents United To-gether, which advocates for stu-dents receiving special educa-tion services.
The new rule calls for schools to use a discipline system that focuses on reinforcing positive behavior, instead of relying on punitive measures.
“You begin with establish-ing a positive behavioral ap-proach,” Wright told the Board of Education Thursday. “It’s not
a restraint and seclusion policy to teach adults how to restrain and seclude children. Restraint and seclusion is to be used as a last resort.”
Wright said it was important that teachers and school em-ployees be properly trained. She said such training should focus on uprooting causes of bad behavior, not just reacting to problems.
“Children behave in a certain way for a certain reason,” she said.
Previous problems included a 2011 lawsuit that said Jackson’s alternative school was using “un-reasonable, abusive and exces-sive physical restraints,” includ-ing handcuffi ng some students to a pole. In May 2012, Jackson
settled the lawsuit and agreed to handcuff only older students for crimes. The settlement said employees couldn’t shackle any student to a fi xed object.
Handcuff s are already banned in schools under state law, except for certifi ed school resource and police offi cers. The new policy goes further, saying teachers and other school per-sonnel should be trained in how to touch a student when physi-cal restraint is required. It also says school employees can’t put students on the fl oor facedown and hold them there.
Rogers and others wanted schools banned from using se-clusion, citing instances where children were locked in rooms unsupervised. The rule says
that when students are sepa-rated, they must be in sight of an adult at all times and can’t be in a locked room. But Wright said giving students time to cool off outside a classroom setting is sometimes key to resolving problems, citing her own experi-ence as a principal in Maryland.
“I think it’s unrealistic that you’re not going to have times when you have to seclude kids,” she said.
L. Rene’ Hardwick, who works on the issue for the Mis-sissippi chapter of the Ameri-can Civil Liberties Union, said she was pleased that the state would begin collecting data on when schools restrain or se-clude students, and called on the state to publish it.

JACKSON — A coalition of nearly 300 municipal govern-ments in Mississippi are cam-paigning for a bill that would give them more sales tax rev-enue to repair infrastructure.
Corinth leaders are in favor of the bill.
The Mississippi Municipal League held a news conference last at the State Capitol to ex-press support for Senate Bill 2146. The bill would give mu-nicipalities 20 percent of the sales tax revenue the state col-lects from a municipality each month back to the municipality.
Cities currently get 18.5 percent of that number.
The increase would be phased in over two years. The money could only be used for such projects as repaving roads, re-pairing bridges, and maintain-ing water and sewer systems. Sales tax revenue currently makes up about 36 percent of the state general fund, accord-ing to the Department of Rev-enue. The state collected a total of nearly $170 million in sales tax in August 2015.
The Senate voted nearly unanimously for the bill, which now moves to the House Ways and Means Committee. The
committee has until March 22 to either pass or kill the bill.
Both the House and Senate are debating measures to meet infrastructure needs across the state. There were more than 11,000 miles of municipal roads in need of repair as of October 2015, according to a presenta-tion Department of Transporta-tion offi cials made to legislators in February.
The League represents 294 city, town and village govern-ments in the state. Executive Director Shari Veazey said the League has been pushing for an increase for the last 12 years. She said state leadership has re-
alized cities are responsible for a good portion of infrastructure maintenance.
“Collectively we have about 22,000 miles of roads that we’re responsible for,” Veazey said. “It’s a pretty big chunk. Not to mention water and sewer sys-tems are the number one ser-vices cities provide to people.”
League President and Kos-ciusko Mayor Jimmy Cockroft said increased costs for con-struction materials like asphalt and steel have made it harder to meet repair needs.
Kosciusko — a city of less than 7,500 — issued a bond of $2 million in 1998 to pave
roads, but when the city issued a bond of $2.5 million in 2008, it was only enough to pave half the same number of roads, he said.
“The costs went up that much,” Cockroft said.
He said 70 percent of sales tax going to the state’s general fund was generated in a city or town. This bill would stimulate local economies, which would help boost the state in turn, he said.
“Everyone has the same prob-lem, from Jackson to the small-est town,” he said. “We’re just asking for a bit more in what we get back. This would be a win for everybody.”

In its written opinion, the higher court concludes that Moreno failed to present any contrary evidence showing the tail lights were not on prior to the collision.
In the circuit court trial, Walker testifi ed that the pickup was approximately
three-fourths of a mile away when he turned onto the highway. The defense argued that the pickup was speeding and failed to yield the right of way.
The tractor trailer was en route to Oxford, and the pickup was heading towards Memphis.

WASHINGTON — Pres-ident Barack Obama will open a new era in the United States’ thorny re-lationship with Cuba dur-ing a history-making trip that has two seemingly dissonant goals: locking in his softer approach while also pushing the is-land’s communist leaders to change their ways.
Obama’s 2 1⁄2 day visit starting today will be a crowning moment for the ambitious diplomatic experiment that he and President Raul Castro’s government announced barely a year ago. After a half-century of acrimony, the two former Cold War foes are now in regular
contact. American trav-elers and businesses are eagerly eyeing opportuni-ties on the tiny nation 90 miles south of Florida.
Obama will stroll the streets of Old Havana and meet with Castro in his presidential offi ces. He also will meet with politi-cal dissidents.
White House offi cials are mindful that Obama cannot appear to gloss over deep and persistent diff erences. Even as the president works toward better ties, his statements alongside Castro and dis-sidents will be scrutinized for signs of how aggres-sively he is pushing the Havana government to fulfi ll promises of reform.

Authorities search for 2 brothers missing on trip
PORT GIBSON — Mississippi authorities are searching for two brothers who were reported missing more than a week ago after they went fishing on the Mississippi River.
WAPT-TV reports that 29-year-old Darrel Wilson and 26-year-old Joshua Wilson called relatives on March 9 and said they were returning home after catching about 300 pounds of fish. Claiborne County Sheriff Frank Davis said the relatives reported them missing several hours later.
The Clarion-Ledger reported that items belonging to the brothers were found washed up on an island in the river.
The Mississippi Highway Pa-trol and the state Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks also have joined the search in Claiborne County.
Hattiesburg shelter helps four-legged flood victims
HATTIESBURG — An animal shelter in Hattiesburg has be-come home to some four-legged flood victims.
Southern Pines Animal Shel-ter is sheltering dozens of pets whose owners are out of their homes due to last week’s flood-ing in Mississippi.
Shelter director Ginny Sims tells The Hattiesburg American the shelter has been taking care of the pets so the owners can take care of themselves.
Meanwhile, the Humane So-ciety of the United States has been assisting Southern Pines in moving animals awaiting adoption to shelters in other states.
Adams County inmate found dead in jail cell
NATCHEZ — Investigators say an inmate found dead in his cell at the Adams County jail was hanging by his neck from a handmade rope.
The Adams County Sheriff’s Office told the Natchez Democrat that 32-year-old Joseph Laverne
Sturdivant Jr. was alone in his cell at the time of the incident.
Detention officers tried in vain to revive him Thursday after-noon.
Sturdivant had been arrested on a burglary charge and had been at the jail since Feb. 19.
The sheriff’s office said in a statement that the rope ap-peared to have been made from a bed sheet.
Williams guilty in murder of George County sheriff
MERIDIAN — A jury has found Brandy Nicole Williams guilty of capital murder in the 2010 death of George County Sheriff Garry Welford.
Friday’s verdict in Lauderdale County was the result of a retri-al for Williams. Her first convic-tion was overturned by a state appeals court.
Mississippi media outlets report that Williams was sen-tenced by Judge Richard McK-enzie to life in prison without parole.
The 62-year-old Welford was putting spikes at an intersection near the Alabama line to stop a truck in which Williams and Christopher Baxter were flee-ing police in July 2010. He was struck and killed by the truck.
Baxter also has been con-victed and sentenced to life in prison for Welford’s death.
Man killed in I-10 crash near Mississippi border
NEW ORLEANS — State po-lice are investigating a traffic ac-cident that killed a 34-year-old man on Interstate 10 near the Mississippi state line in Slidell.
The victim in the Friday morn-ing accident was a man driving a westbound Mercedes-Benz that crossed onto the median and began to rotate as it head-ed for the eastbound lanes. An eastbound driver was unable to avoid a collision.
The Mercedes driver was pronounced dead at the scene. State police were attempting to reach family members before re-leasing the name. What caused the driver to veer onto the me-dian was under investigation.
Teens survive airplane crash on golf course
WICHITA, Kan. — Two teenagers were able to walk away from a rented airplane that one of them was pilot-ing when it crashed onto a Kansas golf course, narrowly missing nearby homes.
A 17-year-old boy was fly-ing the 1966 single-engine Mooney on Friday afternoon when it came down on the 14th hole at the Tallgrass Country Club, Wichita police said. An 18-year-old woman also was aboard.
Nikki Womack, who lives near the golf course, said she and her daughter saw the plane fly very low over their neighbor’s home before crashing on the golf course, The Wichita Eagle reported.
“I thought maybe it would flip, but it just hit real softly, pretty much,” Womack said. “It kind of bounced up” as it scraped through a sand trap and came to rest just short of the green. Womack dialed 911 as she ran outside to see if she could help.
The boy climbed out of the wreckage first and was bleeding from the top of his head, she said, followed by the woman who was bleed-ing and had an eye injury. She had both of them lay down before first responders arrived.
Marlene Wilcox, an opera-tor at Wesley Medical Center in Wichita, said Saturday that the woman was treated and released and the boy was listed in fair condition.
Wichita Police Lt. Paul Duff said the plane was on its way from Nashville, Ten-nessee, to Jabara Airport in Wichita, just northeast of the crash site.
Admitting Flint failure may not curb takeover
LANSING, Mich. — Michi-gan’s emergency manager system, which has touched everything from the once-bankrupt city of Detroit to
smaller municipalities and school districts, failed Flint — a unique admission Gov. Rick Snyder made under intense questioning by Con-gress.
Yet, the breakdown that caused lead from old pipes to contaminate the city’s drinking water — Snyder said Thursday he wished his appointed emergency managers had “asked more questions” — seems unlikely to make the state rethink its 2012 law, which empowers intervention in deficit-ridden communities by usurping control from lo-cally elected officials.
Republican lawmakers, who control the Legislature and enacted the measure less than two months after voters repealed an older version, still support it, and the GOP governor was care-ful to limit his admission of failures to “this particular case with respect to the water issue.” Democrats op-posed to the law say it is at the root of much of the Flint disaster: Snyder appointed four different people to run the city during its 3½ years of state control, and all were there either during delibera-tions over changing water sources in a bid to contain residents’ high bills or once the problems arose after the 2014 switch.
A spokesman for House Speaker Kevin Cotter said mistakes were made in Flint “at every level of govern-ment,” but that emergency managers are needed. No Michigan city has one for the first time in 15 years, Gideon D’Assandro said, be-cause they “got in, fixed the problems ... and got out.” And Amber McCann, spokes-woman for Senate Majority Leader Arlan Meekhof, said Meekhof is “open to dis-cussing how to improve the tools to help communities, but to just repeal the law would be irresponsible.”
Even before the Flint fiasco, the emergency man-ager law had been criticized
largely as an undemocratic measure that disproportion-ately affects majority-black areas.
Obama, GOP take fight over justice to airwaves
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama called again Saturday for Senate Repub-licans to consider his nomi-nee for the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland.
Republicans countered by warning Democrats not to “seek to further divide our nation” by using the Su-preme Court fight “to score cheap political points in an election year.”
In his weekly radio and Internet address, Obama acknowledged that “we’re in the middle of an especially noisy and volatile political season.”
However, the president argued: “At a time when our politics are so polarized; when norms and customs of our political rhetoric seem to be corroding - this is pre-cisely the time we should treat the appointment of a Supreme Court justice with the seriousness it deserves. Because our Supreme Court is supposed to be above politics, not an extension of politics. And it should stay that way.”
Obama urged Senate Republicans to “give Judge Garland the respect he has earned. Give him a hear-ing. Give him an up-or-down vote. To deny it would be an abdication of the Senate’s constitutional duty. It would indicate a process for nomi-nating and confirming judges that is beyond repair.”
In the GOP response, Sen. Thom Tillis, R-N.C., said the battle over the vacancy cre-ated by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia was unique because an Obama choice would push the court’s 4-4 split in the liberal direction and because the vacancy oc-curred “in the middle of an election year.” Scalia died Feb. 13.

ORLANDO, Fla. — SeaWorld built its brand on a leaping and splash-ing killer whale named Shamu. She was part of its logo, gave her name to stadiums in the theme parks and was the inspi-ration for rides. The orca image sold T-shirts and soft, stuff ed animals for the kids to take home.
With the company phasing out its killer whale program, it is forced to ponder the question: What is Sea-World without Shamu?
“The orcas were their most powerful engage-ment tool,” said Allen Ad-amson, a marketing and branding expert based in New York. “It requires SeaWorld to reinvent its core signature attraction. It’s not an easy fi x.”
Under unrelenting pressure from animal rights groups and suf-fering from a drop in ticket sales, SeaWorld an-nounced Thursday it was ending its orca breeding program and stopping its traditional killer whale shows.
SeaWorld isn’t the only company to lose a signature and popular icon. Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus is retiring all its touring
elephants to a 200-acre conservation center in May under similar pres-sure. And McDonald’s phased out its “super-sized” menu following the 2004 documenta-ry, “Super Size Me,” in which fi lmmaker Morgan Spurlock chronicled the eff ects of the chain’s food on his health.
But McDonald’s didn’t go as far as SeaWorld, said Debanjan Mitra, branding expert at the University of Florida’s Warrington College of Business.
“A comparable situa-tion would be if McDon-ald’s says, ‘Tomorrow we are taking down the Big Mac.’ That didn’t hap-pen,” Mitra said.
SeaWorld’s decision followed a backlash from the 2013 documentary “Blackfi sh,” which told the story of Tilikum, an orca responsible for the death of a SeaWorld trainer in 2010 and two other people in the 1990s. Attendance at SeaWorld’s parks in San Diego, Or-lando and San Antonio declined and some top musical acts dropped out of SeaWorld-sponsored concerts at the urging of animal rights activists, who demonstrated out-side the parks’ gates.
SeaWorld’s 29 killer whales — ranging in age
from 1 to 51 years old — will remain in captiv-ity, but in “new, inspiring natural orca encounters,” according to the com-pany. And, eventually, as they die off , the parks will have to fi gure out a way to attract visitors without them.
“It’s hard to walk away from such a powerful icon, but they have no choice,” said Laura Ries, a marketing consultant based in Atlanta. “Are they really going to hang their brand on this visual that is really problematic and makes people ques-tion what they are doing with animals?”
Whether the iconic killer whale images sur-vive remains to be seen. Shamu already started fading from view when Southwest Airlines dropped its marketing partnership with Sea-World in 2014. Experts said the orca imagery is inconsistent with Sea-World’s new focus.
“Imagery nostalgia can connect their audience in some way— that is part of their past, but it can’t be part of their live future,” Ries said.
SeaWorld Entertain-ment CEO Joel Manby said the company has a good story to tell about its marine animal rescue operations. “I feel like
that’s where we need to go as an organization and eliminate this orca issue as a cloud over our great story,” he told The Associ-ated Press.
Is that a story that will attract visitors?
Theme park consul-tant Dennis Speigel said SeaWorld now has the opportunity to return to its roots as a marine life park and enhance its po-sition as an alternative theme park experience for people taking a break from Disney or Universal parks.
The Orlando park is get-ting a new roller coaster this year, but rides won’t be the company’s future, Speigel said.
“You’ll see less of that in the future. You’ll see capi-tal dollars spent in the at-tractions area that focus-es them back on marine life science and a really rich educational aspect,” Speigel said.
Other experts caution that education might not attract crowds seeking thrills. People don’t ex-pect to visit an aquarium when they visit SeaWorld, and the company’s previ-ous plans to expand its orca tanks didn’t placate the public, said Arun Sharma, professor of marketing at the Univer-sity of Miami School of Business Administration.

Associated PressMONTPELIER, Vt. —
General Mills’ announce-ment on Friday that it will start labeling products that contain genetically modifi ed ingredients to comply with a Vermont law shows food companies might be throwing in the towel, even as they hold out hope Congress will fi nd a national solution.
Tiny Vermont is the fi rst state to require such labeling, eff ective July 1. Its fellow New England
states of Maine and Con-necticut have passed laws that require such labeling if other nearby states put one into eff ect.
The U.S. Senate voted 48-49 Wednesday against a bill that would have blocked such state laws.
The food industry is holding out hope that Congress will prevent states from requiring such labeling. Some com-panies say they plan to follow Vermont’s law, while others are consider-ing pulling their products from the small state.
The Grocery Manufac-turers Association has called for a national so-lution instead of what it says is a patchwork of confusing and costly state labeling laws. It has also challenged Vermont’s law in federal court, asking that the law be blocked until the case is resolved. That request was denied and is on appeal.
General Mills’ “an-nouncement is the latest example of how Vermont’s looming labeling mandate is a serious problem for businesses,” the associa-tion said in a statement. “Food companies are be-ing forced to make deci-sions on how to comply and having to spend mil-lions of dollars. One small state’s law is setting label-ing standards for consum-ers across the country.”
Nestle supports the mandatory informed dis-closure of the presence of GMO ingredients in food and beverages and believes it’s best done by a uniform national ap-proach, but will abide by state laws if they come into eff ect, according to spokeswoman Edie Burge.
Food giant General Mills Inc. said Friday it will start nationwide la-beling on products that contain genetically modi-fi ed ingredients, saying it’s not practical to do so for just one state. Camp-bell Soup Co. is also print-ing new national labels in preparation for Ver-mont’s law, although it opposes state-by-state la-beling requirements.

stories. One story is about a local 14-year-oldwho makes duck calls. Amazing!
Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian
Daily Corinthian • Sunday, March 20, 2016 • 9A
DEAR ABBY: In 2004, my husband and I were contacted by a friend who had gotten into an abusive relationship and lost
custody of her daugh-ter. She asked us to go through social servic-es and adopt her little girl, so at least she would know her baby was loved and well taken care of.
Long story short, we did ev-erything we could, but in the end we lost our battle.
The grandparents were in-volved and took over. It was heartbreaking after a year and a half of loving the girl to have to let her go. My niece works at an ice cream shop and saw our precious one recently. Would it be wrong to contact her and her grandparents now that we know they are in town?
I’d love to visit and form a re-lationship, but don’t know if it would be appropriate. -- HURT-ING IN COLORADO
DEAR HURTING: Not know-ing how bitter the “battle” to keep your friend’s child was, it’s hard to say how the grandpar-
ents will react if you reach out. I suppose it couldn’t hurt to try -- but do it via a letter so they have the option of contacting you or not. Do NOT contact the girl without their permission, be-cause they could perceive it as threatening.
DEAR ABBY: One of my co-workers, “Liz,” lost her mother and an aunt to breast cancer. She had genetic testing done and found that she carries the breast cancer genes. As a pre-caution, she had a double mas-tectomy and a hysterectomy.
Since her surgery, she has been attending Relay For Life events and has been walking in the “survivor lap.” There has been a huge backlash here in the offi ce because people think Liz is misrepresenting herself as a cancer survivor. They are be-ing cruel and calling her a liar, not so much to her face, but all over social media. I wonder if you think it is appropriate for her to call herself a survivor? -- CONFLICTED IN CALIFORNIA
DEAR CONFLICTED: Con-sidering her family history and what genetic testing revealed about her chances of suffering the same fate as her mother and her aunt, what Liz did seems prudent to me.
That her co-workers would trash her on social media is ap-
palling. What horrible people they must be. I think the woman has suffered enough to walk a victory lap without being criti-cized for it -- don’t you?
DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have been married 13 years. Of the two of us, I am the more organized. Before we married, she warned me that she kept a messy bedroom. Well, that has been confi rmed!
Recently we had an argument about her clothes. After two weeks of her clean clothes lying on the fl oor and my asking her to pick them up, I took matters into my own hands. She caught me in the act and we both vented our frustrations. I explained that my environment affects my peace of mind. She called me “controlling.”
I’m not sure how to compro-mise and resolve this. I want to keep a clean house. She wants me to leave her things alone. Any suggestions? -- READY TO THROW IN THE TOWEL
DEAR READY: Yes -- sepa-rate bedrooms.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). The way things feel is not al-ways -- or even usually -- the way things are. This is some-thing to understand and accept today. Hey, you’re not always right, and that can be a very good thing.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). They should have listened to you. They didn’t. You wanted to say, “I told you so.” You didn’t. Somehow you may not feel complete about the situation, but you should be proud of your restraint.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re not sure you should speak the randomness that pops into your head. If you ex-press yourself, not everyone will get you. But the ones who do understand will really click with you in other ways, too.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Challenge your unhelp-ful thoughts. Some of those thoughts are not only unhelpful; they are also untrue and being big bullies to the other thoughts that need you to give them a
fi ghting chance.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ve
a charming chaos about you, so don’t be surprised if, as disor-ganized as you may feel, you always wind up among people who want to help you, if only be-cause it means being near you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s a lawless feeling in your spirit today. Though you don’t set out intending to break the rules, you’re also not very inter-ested in knowing what they are.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). People who exaggerate stories often tend to believe the exag-geration to the point that the infl ated version becomes their new mental truth. You can use this to your advantage today.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You are the money magnet of the zodiac today, and opportu-nities will fi nd you wherever you are. You’ll use it for good pur-poses, which may include mak-ing a child happy.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Have you been in love? If so, you’ll recognize today’s
nonsensical inclinations as reminiscent of that irrational state of being. And if you’ve never been in love, today’s questionable move may be the fi rst signs of it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Sometimes it feels like you owe the world everything, even your thoughts. You don’t, though you should know that a lot of people are very greedy and will take as much power as you want to give them.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You never know when you’re changing someone’s life forever for the better by your small gestures of compassion, kindness and interest. To give someone your full attention is an act of generosity.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ve seen it before; someone you know is unable or unwilling to solve a problem even after you point out a solution that is well-within reach. Let this oc-currence indicate to you that it really is time to focus on your own situation.

EASTVIEW, Tenn. — When he played football for McNairy Central High School, John Jar-rett was a destructive force that enjoyed hitting people for the fun of it.
He played linebacker for the Bobcats during a glory period of winning while he donned the blue and gold.
Jarrett is now a professional wrestler that gets to hit people and gets paid for it. The 2000 graduate of MCHS has been in the wrestling business for three years and loves it. He is a home grown star working for the SPWA in Ramer every Sat-urday night. The matches get started at 8 p.m.
If you have not seen John in a few years, he has grown into a man. He weighs 450 pounds stretched over his al-most 6-foot-3 frame. John played football for the Bobcats at around 240 pounds.
When John left MCHS, he
got a football scholarship and admittedly wasted that year with the party life costing him the scholarship.
“I did not handle my year at Lambuth well at all,” said Jar-rett. “I knew better, but went to too many parties and I lost my scholarship.”
Jarrett left Caterpillar and is now devoting his time and eff ort to move up in the wres-tling business. He is 34 and does not believe that is too old to make upward strides in the business.
He points to retired wres-tler “Diamond” Dallas Page as a role model. Page did not get into the business until he was in his 30s and later won the WCW world championship in his 40s.
Jerry “The King” Lawler saw Jarrett wrestling in Southaven and praised him for his ring style. Lawler said he reminded him of former legend Kamala, whom Lawler had a major hand in building into a nation-
al star.“It really meant a great deal
to me when Lawler bragged on my wrestling,” said Jarrett. “He said I had a lot of poten-tial and for me to keep working hard.”
Jarrett’s most well-known opponent was Brian Christo-pher, Lawler’s son. Jarrett and Christopher squared-off in the ring last October in Southaven.
The big man won his fi rst-ever pro match when he beat Nick Grymes in Ramer. Jarrett was trained for a year by “Out-law” Don Bass along with Bill Welch before he got booked into his debut match.
The booker at Ramer is Al-len Stone. A booker in pro wrestling is the man that as-signs the matches and puts the cards together.
Jarrett studies as much vid-eo as possible when not watch-ing wrestling on television. You Tube is great for fi nding old clips of stars from the past and he can even fi nd videos
of his matches to see on Face-book.
The fan favorite Jarrett turned heel (bad guy) recently when he had a disagreement with fellow MCHS gradu-ate and his tag team partner James Johnson (Triple J). Jar-rett pounded Triple J after the match and left him lying in the middle of the ring.
Jarrett does invite his Mc-Nairy County friends and for-mer football teammates to come to the old Action Apparel building to watch him wrestle. He is not going to beat anyone up unless they step into the ring and upset him.
When asked if his mother Bessie Jarrett comes to his matches, he laughed and said she comes to a few of them. She does just like she did when I played football and that is praying I will not get hurt.
If he has any luck and stays away from injuries, Jarrett could achieve his goal some-day of wrestling on television.

DES MOINES, Iowa — Ken-tucky had the stars. But Indi-ana had more toughness — and that’s why the Hoosiers are headed back to the Sweet 16.
Thomas Bryant scored 15 of his 19 points in the fi nal eight minutes, Yogi Ferrell had 18
and fi fth-seeded Indiana beat Kentucky 73-67 Saturday to earn a spot in the Sweet 16.
The Hoosiers (27-7) will re-turn to the regional semifi nals for the fi rst time since 2012 despite losing starting guard Robert Johnson to an appar-ent left ankle injury late in the fi rst half.
Indiana took control with a
17-4 run to go up 10 with four minutes left. Tyler Ulis and Alex Poythress pulled Ken-tucky within 69-67 on free throws, but Bryant hit two from the line with 10 seconds to go to seal the win.
Ulis scored 27 points for Kentucky (27-9), which suf-fered its earliest NCAA Tour-nament exit since 2008 —
when it lost to a Marquette team then led by current In-diana coach Tom Crean.
Jamal Murray added 16 for the Wildcats, but he was just 1 of 9 on 3s.
The Hoosiers won this one with resilience more than

BY GREG BEACHAMAssociated Press
FONTANA, Calif. — The gloriously weathered as-phalt on Auto Club Speed-way’s 2-mile track has a long history of producing four-wide racing and fan-tastic fi nishes.
NASCAR’s new low-downforce package has al-ready created excitement and thrills in the fi rst four races of the new season.
Drivers think the com-bination will be dynamite at Fontana on Sunday.
“I get a sense that every-body is really amped up about it, and I think the reason is that you can re-ally drive here,” Carl Ed-wards said. “Just watch the in-car cameras. Watch what’s going on: Guys have got their heads laid against the left-side head-rest. You get to work here. You get to really use the skills you have as a race car driver. That’s why we all started driving race cars, because cars are fun to drive like that.”
The closest NASCAR race to Hollywood is also the seamiest — as in the seams in the circuit’s old-est asphalt, which is brutal on tires and taxing on the drivers’ skills.
The big bumps in the corners and backstretch of this hot, slick racing sur-face can lead to mistakes
or brilliance, depending on the drivers’ abilities and misfortunes. Kyle Busch surged to win here in 2013 when leaders Den-ny Hamlin and Joey Lo-gano wrecked on the fi nal lap, and Brad Keselowski got around Kevin Harvick on the last lap to win last year.
“I think it’s some of the best racing, if not the best racing, of the year,” Kesel-owski said.
So take four tires on ev-ery stop, put your foot on the fl oor, don’t be afraid to run near the wall — and get ready to have some fun.
“You could write a book about a lap at this place,” Edwards said. “There’s so much happening out there. Where you place your tires, how you enter the corner, what the guy in front of you is doing — all of those things add up. ... You never really know what you’re going to get, and I think that’s good. It’s a little bit unpredict-able. It’s defi nitely tough, and to me, that’s part of the fun.”
That low-downforce package is still being studied and tamed by NASCAR’s teams, but the changes get partial credit for the excitement of this season’s fi rst four races, which included two win-
ning last-lap passes for two of the closest fi nishes in recent NASCAR his-tory. Harvick surged past Edwards in overtime last week in Phoenix to win by a bumper.
The track speed re-cord fell repeatedly dur-ing qualifying on Friday. Hamlin eventually went the fastest in the second round, but Austin Dillon won the pole.
“It takes a lot of eff ort,” Dillon said of driving at Fontana. “You’ve got to put yourself into the mindset of doing stuff that you don’t normally want to do. It makes you a little uncomfortable, so I enjoy it. It defi nitely makes you go up there and try some diff erent things that you don’t get to do every week-end at every race track.”
Some more things to watch in the fi nale of NAS-CAR’s three-race South-west swing:
Kyle’s Course: Busch won at Fontana in 2013 and 2014 but couldn’t go for the three-peat last March while he was side-lined by a broken leg. The Las Vegas native and de-fending Sprint Cup Series champion is outstanding on this track, fi nishing third in 2011 and second in 2012.
Long And Short: Some cars are good on
short runs, and others are better on long runs. Fontana’s 2-mile super-speedway is long, but this race often comes down to short runs in its crazy fi n-ishes. Just ask Keselowski, who got past Harvick with fresher tires on a green-white-checkered fi nish to win last year. “The guys that are good on the short run here will have a huge advantage if there’s a yel-low at the end,” Keselows-ki said. “There’s a pretty big discrepancy between what it takes to run good here on the short run and the long run.”
California Love: Jim-mie Johnson has been historically brilliant at the closest thing to a home-town race for this San Di-ego-area native, winning it fi ve times. Bakersfi eld’s Harvick was last year’s runner-up, and Sacramen-to-area native Kyle Larson has learned to enjoy Fon-tana in his short NASCAR tenure, barely failing to chase down Busch on the last lap in 2014.
Grandson Rising: Dillon’s promising start to the season continued Friday when he claimed his second career pole, his fi rst since the 2014 Dayto-na 500. Richard Childress’ grandson is in prime po-sition to claim his fi rst Sprint Cup victory.
anything else.Indiana went on a 9-2
run with Ferrell on the bench after he picked up his third foul. Ferrell quickly went back in, and the Hoosiers pushed their lead to 62-52 on a Bryant dunk.
An O.G. Anunoby block and another Bryant dunk proved huge for the Hoosiers — especially af-ter Troy Williams fouled Ulis from 3-point range to give Kentucky life.
It had been four years since these once-long-time rivals had faced each other; a Sweet 16 game that Kentucky won 102-90 on its way to a national title.
This one had the feel of an Elite Eight-type matchup from the open-ing basket.
Still, Indiana was lucky to go into halftime ahead 33-32.
Johnson went to the locker room with fi ve minutes left after hitting a pair of early 3s, and Ferrell took 12 minutes to knock down a bucket.
Kentucky looked set to run away with it too, especially after Murray followed a Ulis 3 from the “March Madness” logo with a dunk. But the Wildcats went nearly fi ve
minutes without a basket to close the fi rst, allowing the Hoosiers to inch out in front.
Indiana pushed it to six before Murray and Ulis 3s pulled Kentucky even at 38-all. But that would prove to be Mur-ray’s last made 3, and an Anunoby 3 with 6:53 left put the Hoosiers back on top, 56-50.
Williams had 13 for In-diana.
Tip-Ins
Kentucky: The Wild-cats committed 16 turn-overs with just eight as-sists... Kentucky went just 4 of 16 on 3s... Ulis and Murray were the only Wildcats in double fi gures.
Indiana: Ferrell be-came Indiana’s leader in games played with 136... Reserve freshman forward Juwan Morgan injured his left shoulder early in the second half. After a trip to the locker room, Morgan returned in a sling.
Up Next
Indiana will play either North Carolina or Provi-dence Friday in Philadel-phia.
Kentucky’s season is fi nished.

Niang, the winningest player (97) in Cyclones history and Iowa State’s only two-time All-Ameri-can, was simply too much for the 12th-seeded Tro-jans (30-5) of the Sun Belt.
For the second straight game, Hagins had just two points at halftime.
Unlike last time, when he went off for 29 more in a double-overtime win against Purdue, Hagins added just six after the break.
Duke 71, Yale 64
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Grayson Allen had 29 points, including fi ve 3-pointers, to help Duke fend off a furious rally by Yale and advance to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA Tournament.
Brandon Ingram added 25 points and fi ve re-bounds for the defending champions, who will play the winner of top-seeded Oregon and St. Joseph’s.
The West Region’s No. 4 seed, Duke led by as many as 27 points in the battle of the brainy schools be-fore seeing that dwindle to just three points with less than a minute to play.
Yale came close to forc-ing a needed turnover, but eventually had to foul. Duke connected on four of its fi nal fi ve free-throws to close out the game.
Brandon Sherrod led the 12th-seeded Bulldogs with 22 points. Justin Sears added 12 points and 11 rebounds.
Miami 65, Wichita State 57
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Angel Rodriguez took over after Miami blew
a 21-point lead midway through the second half, hitting a big 3-pointer with 72 second remain-ing and scoring 28 points to lead the third-seeded Hurricanes over Wichita State to advance to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.
Miami (27-7) made it that far three years ago under Jim Larranaga, in his fi fth season as head coach. Sheldon McClel-lan fi nished with 18 points and Davon Reed had 10 for the Hurricanes.
Fred VanVleet and Sha-quille Morris had 12 points and Ron Baker 11 for Wich-ita State (26-9), which put on a furious rally in the second half of a bruising game, taking a 43-42 lead with 10:24 to go.
The Hurricanes will play either Iowa or Vil-lanova next weekend in Louisville in the South Region semifi nals.
Virginia 77, Butler 69
RALEIGH, N.C. — Mal-colm Brogdon scored 22 points and Virginia used some hot second-half shooting to beat Butler in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
Anthony Gill added 17 points and Marial Shayok fi nished with 12 for the top-seeded Cavaliers (28-7). They shot 73 percent after halftime, hitting 14 of their fi rst 16 shots of the second half, and advanced to the Sweet 16 for the sec-ond time in three years.
They will face Iowa State (23-11) on March 25 in the Midwest Regional semifi nals.
Andrew Chrabascz scored a season-high 25 points for ninth-seeded Butler (22-11). Roosevelt Jones pulled the Bull-dogs within 72-69 by hit-ting the fi rst of two free throws with 36.2 seconds left.
He missed the second, Shayok pushed Virginia’s lead back out to four with a free throw with 28.3 sec-onds left and Kellen Dun-ham’s 3-pointer with 12 seconds to go bounced off the iron.

Associated PressMEMPHIS Tenn. —
Zach Randolph recorded his fi rst career triple-double with 28 points, 11 rebounds and 10 as-sists, Tony Allen added 22 points and the Memphis Grizzlies beat the Los An-geles Clippers 113-102 on Saturday night.
Randolph, returning from a seven-game ab-sence due to a sore knee, was 10 of 19 from the fl oor, while Allen was 7 of 10. Ray McCallum added 14 for Memphis, including seven in the fourth quar-ter. Lance Stephenson had 12 points and JaMychal Green fi nished with 11 as Memphis snapped a four-game losing streak.
Chris Paul had 25 points and six assists for the Clippers, while DeAndre Jordan added 16 points and seven rebounds. Paul Pierce contributed 12
points and Austin Rivers fi nished with 10.
The Clippers have lost three of four.
Grizzlies forward Matt Barnes was suspended without pay from the game following an inci-dent last week. The NBA says he tried to enter Mil-waukee’s locker room and verbally challenge Bucks forward John Henson after both players were ejected. On Thursday, Henson blocked Barnes’ shot with 5.5 seconds left in the Bucks’ 96-86 win over the Grizzlies in Mil-waukee. After the play, Henson taunted Barnes and was given two tech-nical fouls and ejected. Barnes was charged with a technical foul and ejected for continuing to use ob-scenities. Barnes told the Los Angeles Times that he was led astray by an arena worker.
Heat 122, Cavaliers 101
MIAMI — Dwyane Wade scored 24 points to surpass 20,000 for his career, Josh Richardson added 19, and the Miami Heat never trailed in beat-ing the Cleveland Cava-liers.
Miami outrebounded Cleveland 42-26 and led by as many as 33 at one point.
Wade is the 41st player in NBA history — and the ninth active player — to score 20,000 points. He reached the milestone with 10:18 left in the third quarter — a short fl oater.
It took Wade 844 games to get to 20,000 points, making him the 21st-quickest to get there, ac-cording to STATS. He’s also the 21st player to do it for one team, and he’s the fi rst Heat player to score that many.
Thunder 115, Pacers 111
INDIANAPOLIS — Oklahoma City Thunder overcame Paul George’s 45 points to beat the Indi-ana Pacers.
Indiana erased a 10-point halftime defi -cit and regained the lead early in the fourth quarter, but couldn’t hold it.
After Indiana took its last lead at 98-97 with 8:28 to go, the Thunder answered with a 9-0 run.
Kevin Durant sealed it by going 3 of 4 on free throws in the last 3 sec-onds.
Pistons 115, Nets 103
AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — Anthony Tolliver scored all 17 of his points in the second half and Aron Baynes scored 17 of his 21 in the fourth quarter to lift the Detroit Pistons to victory over the Brook-lyn Nets.
The Pistons trailed by six in the third and were in danger of what would have been a terrible home loss, but they were eventu-ally able to take advantage of Brook Lopez’s absence. The Brooklyn big man missed the game with a virus.
Brooklyn has lost eight of 10.
Wizards 99, Knicks 89
WASHINGTON — John Wall had 24 points and 10 assists, and the Wash-ington Wizards rallied from an 18-point, second-quarter defi cit to beat the New York Knicks for their fourth straight victory.
It was the largest come-back win of the season for the Wizards, who be-gan Saturday 10th in the Eastern Conference, but just 1 1/2 games out of the eighth and fi nal playoff spot.
Nuggets 101, Hornets 93
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — D.J. Augustin scored 24 points on 8-of-11 shooting, and the Denver Nuggets snapped a three-game road losing streak with a victory over the Charlotte Hornets.
It was a costly loss for the Hornets, who had beaten Miami on Thurs-day night to pull into a tie with the Heat for the fourth-best record in the Eastern Conference.
The Hornets are hoping for home-court advantage in a playoff series. They are 26-11 at home on the season.
Bulls 92, Jazz 85
CHICAGO — The short-handed Chicago Bulls snapped the Utah Jazz’s four-game winning streak.
The Bulls won their sec-ond straight. Chicago (35-33) remained in eighth place in the Eastern Con-ference.
Hawks 109, Rockets 97
ATLANTA — The streak-ing Atlanta Hawks contin-ued to feast on Western Conference teams by beat-ing the Houston Rockets.
The Hawks have won fi ve straight and eight of nine. They’ve also won six straight against Western Conference teams.
The second half stayed close until the Hawks pulled away in the fi nal three minutes.
A 3-pointer by Al Hor-ford, who had 22 for the night, gave Atlanta a 100-95 lead.
Following a turn-over, Thabo Sefolosha’s 3-pointer stretched the lead to eight points. Hor-ford’s jam, and a free throw by Sefolosha, gave Atlanta a 106-95 advan-tage.
The Hawks dominated
the opening period, lead-ing 30-16, before James Harden sparked a quick turnaround in the second period.
Harden, who had only two points in the opening period, had 14 points in the second and the Rock-ets outscored the Hawks 42-22 for a 58-52 half-time lead. He scored nine straight points to cap a 13-0 run for the Rock-ets during the dominant quarter.
Hardaway, who scored a season-high 21 points in his fi rst start of the season in Atlanta’s 116-98 win over Denver on Thursday night, was back in a reserve role as Kent Bazemore returned to the starting lineup.
Spurs 87, Warriors 79
SAN ANTONIO — La-Marcus Aldridge had 26 points and 13 rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs beat the Golden State Warriors to remain perfect at the AT&T Center this season and extend their home dominance over the defending champions to 33 straight regular-season games.
Kawhi Leonard added 18 points and 14 rebounds for San Antonio, which has won 44 straight at home in the regular season, tied for the second-longest streak in NBA history.
The Spurs held Warriors superstar Stephen Curry to 14 points while limiting him to 1-for-12 shooting on 3-pointers.
San Antonio (59-10) moved within three games of Golden State (62-7) for the league’s top seed with two games remaining be-tween the two teams.
San Antonio was able to win a showdown between the league’s top two teams with Tim Duncan coming off the bench for only the third time in his career.

PICKWICK, Tenn. — A slight drizzle fell from the sky as approximately 50 organizers and volunteers gathered at the Tennes-see Wildlife Resources (Sportman’s One Stop) boat launch ramp on Fri-day, March 11 for a special Tennessee River cleanup day.
With a focus on keeping Pickwick Lake trash-free, somewhere around 35 volunteers participated in the “Keep the Tennes-see River Beautiful” day which began with a short informational program.
Seven of the volunteers were from Alcorn County. They were Andrea Rose, Brittany Burcham, Tam-my Bonds, Sherry Brown, Lorraine Savage, and Beth and Betsy Whitehu-rst.
The cleanup was coor-dinated as a team eff ort between Keep Corinth-Alcorn Beautiful, Keep Tennessee Beautiful and the Tennessee Valley Au-thority. Employees from Pickwick Landing State Park were also in atten-dance. In addition, Living Lands & Waters, a nation-ally recognized organiza-tion was on hand, provid-ing the boats and sharing their expertise.
“It was a really great event and were proud to be able to partner with them for our fi rst year,” said Keep Corinth-Al-corn Beautiful Coordina-tor Andrea Rose. “I was amazed and disgusted by the amount of garbage our crews collected from the areas in and around the lake.”
Three boats were sent out from 1 to 4 p.m., one carrying volunteers and the other two carrying the litter removed from areas diffi cult to reach by land.
Items collected include various sized plastic soda bottles, Styrofoam cups, bait boxes and coolers, marine debris, tractor and car tires and more.
“We were broken up into teams so there were 10 to 12 people in my boat,” said Rose. “We would all get out with gar-bage bags during stops and either bag up or pile up the garbage on boats if the items were too large.”
Volunteers also picked up litter around the two TWRA boat launch ramps near the stateline.
Thanks to the help of all involved, the group was able to clear an area of fi ve miles over a three-hour period.
Showing their appreci-ation, organizers present-ed each volunteer with a complimentary T-shirt and water bottle.
The Keep the Tennes-see River Beautiful proj-ect hopes to engage vol-unteers along the river by helping to pick up litter along the lake shorelines and debris from the water.
More than 190 volun-teers removed 18,372 pounds of debris from the Tennessee River dur-ing last year’s Tennessee River Tour.
In addition to Pickwick Lake, this year’s cleanup tour will also target three other areas: Decatur, Ala., Knoxville, Tenn., and Land Between the Lakes, Ky.
“Many of us from Corinth and Alcorn Coun-ty enjoy boating, swim-ming, fi shing and other
recreation on Pickwick Lake,” said Keep Corinth-Alcorn Beautiful’s coordi-
nator. “It is our responsi-bility keep the Tennessee River clean and protected
if we want to continue to enjoy it.”

ect, visit www.keeptnriv-er.org or call 865-850-4098.)

Volunteers went by boat to different areas around the lake. About 35 volunteers took part.
As members of modern fami-lies are increasingly pulled in diff erent directions, it can be challenging for them to enjoy time together as families.
According to a report titled “Spending Time with His Kids: Eff ects of Family Structure on Fathers’ and Children’s Lives” in the Journal of Marriage and the
Family, kids’ academic perfor-mance can benefi t from having mothers who frequently com-municate with them and fathers who spend time doing activities with their kids. Time spent to-gether also can nourish a stron-ger emotional bond between parents and children, which may make children less likely to
exhibit behavioral problems. Parents who want to increase
family time can do so in various ways.
• Establish at least one day each week that the family catch-es up with one another.
• Turn chores into opportuni-ties to involve the kids. It may be faster to fold the laundry
or rake the leaves by yourself. However, showing kids they are a part of a functioning house-hold in which everyone does their part is an important les-son for youngsters to learn.
• Take a break from television or screen time on computers and mobile devices. Too much screen time can result in irregu-
lar sleeping habits, behavioral problems, obesity, and less time for play or family interac-tion. Shutting off devices frees up opportunities for families to engage in other activities.
• Eat at least one family meal together per day and use the op-portunity to talk about what is going on in one another’s lives.

Couples adhere to many traditions on their wedding days, including the exchange of wedding rings. Wedding rings symbolize the union of two people and their pledge to remain faith-ful to each other.
No one is exactly sure just when the tradition of exchanging wedding rings originated, but some say it can be traced back to ancient Egypt, when the oldest record-ed exchange of wedding rings was made. Reeds growing along the Nile were twisted and braid-ed into rings and given during betrothal cer-emonies. The round ring symbolized eternity, and the hole within the cen-ter meant a gateway to things unknown. Since reeds were not very du-rable, soon ivory, leather and bone were used to create wedding rings.
As new lands were ex-plored and territories expanded, traditions from one culture were adopted and modifi ed by other cultures. The same is true with wedding rings. According to the Diamond Source, wed-ding rings were adopted by Romans and incorpo-rated into Western wed-ding ceremonies. Ro-mans’ rings were highly decorated, and some his-torians believe wedding rings were given to rep-resent ownership over brides instead of symbol-izing love. These rings were made of iron and called “Anulus Pronu-bus,” or “betrothal ring.”
Rings have been
simplifi ed since those days and ultimately made of many materi-als. Throughout history, wedding rings were worn on various fi ngers and even both hands, where-as many married people in Western cultures now wear their wedding rings on the left hand and on the fourth fi nger. Ro-mans once believed that this fi nger contained a vein, called the “Vena Amoris,” that ran direct-ly to the heart. Though that is not true, the tradi-tion has prevailed.
Other legends say that, when blessing a Christian marriage, priests would bind the marriage by saying, “In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,” simultaneously touching the ring to the recipient’s thumb, index fi nger and middle fi nger, before slipping it on the fourth fi nger while say-ing, “Amen.”
Another theory on ring placement is that wedding rings are worn on the ring fi nger be-cause that fi nger isn’t used as much as the rest of the hand, ensuring delicate ring materials won’t be damaged.
Ross Simmons Jewel-ry states that gold is still the most popular met-al choice for wedding rings, but couples are opting for other metals that are more durable.
Wedding rings contin-ue to serve as symbols of a couple’s vows and union. Much like the marriage itself, they are designed to last the test of time.
