An organizational meeting is set to form a committee to boost support for a $5.6 million bond issue to fund construction of a new Corinth High School. Superintendent O.Wayne Gann says the new facility will be a state of the art campus designed to educate students for high-tech jobs.
Recognized for his lasting con-tributions to all aspects of life in the Corinth/Alcorn area, Jimmy Blaine Fisher was honored as Ju-nior Auxiliary of Corinth’s 2015 Outstanding Citizen of the Year during Saturday night’s 53rd An-nual Charity Ball.
Joining the ranks of James E. “Sonny” Boatman, Mary Dee Kemp, Joe “Havis” Hurley and other past citizens of the year, the 73-year-old was delighted as he
stood behind the star-bust podi-um to accept his award.
A generous soul with a big heart for others, Fisher was nominated by Attorney Johnny Ross, Alcorn County Coroner Jay Jones and past Citizen of the Year Betsy Whitehurst.
“This nominee’s contributions to the cultural, educational and civic betterment have been of great benefi t to our area. It would be very rare to fi nd a person who has given so much of himself to the youth of Corinth and Alcorn
County in his 17-year position as Youth Court Judge, in his ser-vice to the Boy Scouts of America and his service to the Corinth School System in his long years of involvement,” said Ross. “Most of the civic organizations he’s worked with have received many hours of free legal services. Many, many people today have had their lives enriched through activities in which he has been involved. His efforts and work with nu-merous civic programs including the Chamber of Commerce (Alli-
ance), Kiwanis Club, Heart Fund and Habitat for Humanity have all made lasting contributions to our community.”
A self-employed attorney with Sharp, Fisher and Borden Attor-neys, the 2015 Outstanding Citi-zen worked in his family’s hard-ware and furniture store in his early teens and later as an attor-ney for the Tennessee Valley Au-thority before moving to Corinth.

Volunteers helped get the Corinth Civil War Interpretive Center ready for spring on Sat-urday.
Six supporters braved non-
spring weather as part of the annual National Park Day at the Interpretive Center.
“Volunteers are critical to the Interpretive Center since there is so much to do with a small staff,” said ranger Heather
Henson.Bernard Toomer and his two
sons, Morgan and Denzel, gave up a Saturday to help with land-scaping.

A successful fundraiser is making it’s muddy return next month.
Corinth Elementary School PTO members have been busy making fi nal preparations for the 2nd Annual Muddy War-rior Run set for April 18 at the Corinth High School Softball Complex on Proper Street.
“We had a blast last year. Despite the cooler weather and the rain, kids came from all over the area to run our slippery course,” said event co-chair Annie Richardson. “As far as I know, it’s the only event of this kind in North Mississippi.”
The event features a one-mile muddy outdoor course with more than 20 challenges and obstacles. Although only ages 5-18 were allowed to run the course last year, Richard-son said organizers have de-cided to change the rules this year.
“We actually had a lot of adults who wanted to run the course with their kids last year, so we decided to open it up,” she said. “We will have a special time for adults to be
able to take a lap around the course.”
Another change is a time set aside for special needs chil-dren to run the course.
“All the obstacles and chal-lenges are ‘challenged by choice’ which means partici-pants will be encouraged and allowed to try the challenge or obstacle, but will not be required to complete them,” said Richardson. “We will not have age group runs this year and a different wave of 12-15 participants will be released every 10 minutes.”
Richardson said special needs children races will be-

What started out as a deal between mother and son morphed into an award-winning science project for one Biggersville High School student.
Dylan Streff dreamed of owning a diesel-powered truck, but had trouble con-vincing his family it would be a worthy investment.
“Both my mom and my grandparents felt it would be smarter to purchase a gas-powered truck, but I really wanted a diesel en-gine,” said the 15-year-old Streff. “So, my mom made a compromise and told me I could have one, but only if I proved to her it was better.”
Taking up the challenge, the BHS 9th-grader decided to make the comparison the
focus of his school science fair project.
“I explored issues like fuel depreciation and the total cost of ownership in the long run,” said Streff. “In the end, I discovered diesel doesn’t depreciate as much as gas.”

Broommaker Jack Martin was honored this week by Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam with the Folklife Heritage Award as one of the winners of the 2015 Governor’s Arts Awards. Martin was one of two men to receive the award.
The Folklife Heritage Award is presented to folk artists or organiza-tions that have made out-standing contributions to artistic tradition. The award honors signifi cant achievements within art forms that are rooted in the traditional or ethnic cultures of Tennessee.
Artisan, educator and devoted tradition bearer, Jack Martin of Selmer is a fourth generation broom maker continuing the craft he learned from his grandfather.
Owner of Hockaday Handmade Brooms, Martin has given his life, and his livelihood, to this family heritage. Still op-erating his great-grand-father’s nearly 100-year-old equipment, Martin creates every broom by hand, selecting materi-als, winding, sewing and carefully fi nishing each, one at a time. His brooms are found in prestigious museum and archival collections, including the Smithsonian.
Martin and Hockaday Handmade Brooms have been featured on PBS, DIY Network and HGTV. Among other recogni-tions, Martin has been presented with the Mc-Nairy County Ambassa-
dor Award and was given the honor of representing American folk culture through displays and demonstrations at the 1996 Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta.
As a demonstrator, Martin’s “Living History” program has reached an estimated one million el-ementary school children in West Tennessee over the past 25 years. He has also expanded his busi-ness to include a larger workshop and a work-ing-museum that is open year-round to visitors. In 1996, Martin started the Broomcorn Festival, a successful annual event held at Selmer’s largest city park in partnership
with McNairy County’s tourism, economic and cultural development agencies.
Hockaday Handmade Brooms is one of today’s oldest family owned busi-nesses in Southwest Ten-nessee, dating its origin to 1916. Farmer Will Hocka-day, Martin’s maternal great-grandfather, har-vested his own broom-corn and fashioned pro-duction equipment in his one-man saw mill and blacksmith shop.
Will’s son, Jack Hocka-day, inherited the craft, taught it to his daughter Mildred and continued to make brooms into the 1970s. Martin was Mil-dred Hockaday’s son,
and grew up on the fam-ily farm immersed in the customs of rural life. Due to economic neces-sity, Martin left home in search of work in the late 1980s and worked as an engineer for GE, Rock-well International and Texas Instruments.
He eventually left the corporate world to return to the family farm in Sel-mer and restart the fam-ily broom business.
With guidance from his grandfather, Martin learned to make brooms in the manner passed through his family. Af-ter replenishing and since preserving the lost broomcorn stock in late 1980s, he reinvigorated
Hockaday Handmade Brooms and began to sell his products at regional craft fairs and small re-tailers around the south-east.
Despite advancements in technology, Martin has insisted on using his family’s time-tested handmade techniques. His meticulous method and sensitivity to de-tail transforms his craft items from ordinary, functional objects into works of art.
Martin and his wife Dee, also known as Vir-ginia, have also invented a drumstick made from broom-corn that is sold though the Pro-Mark company.
The sticks have gained popularity among several well-known musicians including Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Pep-pers, who discussed them in a 2004 cover story for Rhythm Magazine. Other award-winning musical acts, including the Black Keys, Robert Plant and the Band of Joy and Clint Black, have also made use of the one-of-a-kind spe-cialty drumsticks.
As he now hands down the family business to his own children, grandchil-dren and great-grand-children, Martin secures the broom-making tra-dition for other genera-tions. He has not only succeeded in reviving Hockaday Handmade Brooms, but in creating a cultural treasure that can be valued for decades to come.

gin at 9 a.m., with other races beginning at 9:30 a.m. Adults will be al-lowed to run the course around 1 p.m.
Registration is $20 be-fore April 4 and $25 after April 4 for participates ages 5-18. Adult registra-tion is $10. Online regis-tration is currently avail-able, but sign-up will also be accepted on the day of the event.
“All race fi nishers ages 5-18 will receive a T-shirt and medal,” said Rich-ardson. “Also everyone will be allowed to run the course as many times as they would like.”
Money raised from the event is used by the PTO to help buy snacks for CES students. The pro-gram provides a snack to more than 1,400 stu-dents everyday during the school year.
“It costs us about $30 per year to provide one student the snack every-day,” Richardson said. “All proceeds from the Muddy Warrior Run will go directly to help fund the program.”
Sponsors also play a important role in making the event a success.
“We need sponsors ... we could not do this event without them,” added Richardson. “We have several different ways an individual or business can help.”

History
Today is Sunday, March 29, the 88th day of 2015. There are 277 days left in the year.
Today’s Highlightin History:
On March 29, 1912, British explorer Rob-ert Falcon Scott, his doomed expedition stranded in an Antarctic blizzard after failing to be the first to reach the South Pole, wrote the last words of his journal: “For Gods sake look af-ter our people.”
On this date:
In 1812, the first White House wedding took place as Lucy Payne Washington, the sister of first lady Dolley Madison, married Supreme Court Justice Thomas Todd.
In 1943, World War II rationing of meat, fats and cheese began.
In 1951, Julius and Ethel Rosenberg were convicted in New York of conspiracy to commit espionage. (They were executed in June 1953.) The Rodgers and Ham-merstein musical “The King and I” opened on Broadway.
In 1962, Jack Paar hosted NBC’s “Tonight” show for the final time, although the network aired a repeat the follow-ing night. (Johnny Carson debuted as host the fol-lowing October.)
In 1971, Army Lt. Wil-liam L. Calley Jr. was convicted of murdering 22 Vietnamese civilians in the My Lai massacre. (Calley ended up serving three years under house arrest.) A jury in Los An-geles recommended the death penalty for Charles Manson and three fe-male followers for the 1969 Tate-La Bianca murders. (The sentences were later commuted.)
In 1973, the last Unit-ed States combat troops left South Vietnam, end-ing America’s direct mili-tary involvement in the Vietnam War.
In 1974, eight Ohio Na-tional Guardsmen were indicted on federal charg-es stemming from the shooting deaths of four students at Kent State University. (The charges were later dismissed.)
In 1992, Democratic presidential front-runner Bill Clinton acknowl-edged experimenting with marijuana “a time or two” while attending Ox-ford University, adding, “I didn’t inhale and I didn’t try it again.”
Five years ago:
Two female suicide bombers blew them-selves up in twin attacks on Moscow subway sta-tions jam-packed with rush-hour passengers, killing at least 40 people and wounding more than 100.
Former major league player Barry Lyons will soon come to Corinth to speak at Living Free Ministries.
Lyons will bring his message of encouragement to the Cross-roads area on Thursday, April 9.
Lyons was a member of the World Series champion New York Mets in 1986 and spent fi ve-years with the Mets. He also played for the Los Angeles Dodgers, California Angels and Chicago White Sox.
“I love having the opportunity to come to Corinth and maybe in-spire someone there,” said Lyons. “I want to tell them living your life
for Christ is important because He has transformed my life.”
Tommy Wilson, founder of Living Free Ministries, said he is very excited to have Lyons speak at the Living Free Celebration Night.
“My brother Randy (Wilson) and some of our other guys at Liv-ing Free met Barry at the Home of Grace,” said Wilson. “I believe Barry’s message is going to bring lots of inspiration to the people.”
Lyons admits to having an al-cohol program that began with a few beers on the weekend when he was in high school. The drinking problem got worse as Lyons got into the majors where he drank daily.
“I was always sober when I played baseball,” said Lyons. “There is easy access to alcohol in the major leagues after games and that was a problem for me.”
The ’86 Mets were legend-ary for the numerous drug and alcohol issues that affected the players on the team, including Darryl Strawberry and Dwight Gooden.
“We had a very wild bunch in ’86 that got into lots of trouble,” remarked Lyons. “It was easy to get invited to parties all over New York City.”
An injured back led to the end of Lyons’ baseball career with the Mets and eventual retire-ment from the major leagues.
“My mind went into some dark places after I retired from baseball,” said Lyons. “I was fearful at the time because my relationship with God was not where it should have been.”
Hurricane Katrina took Lyons’ business and home in 2005 and helped lead him to the Home of Grace.
“I called my wife and told her I was ready to get some help for my drinking,” said Lyons. “My life was changed when I got to the Home of Grace.”
Lyons said that he no longer has a desire to drink or take drugs. His relationship with Je-sus has been the key to staying sober.
Ex-catcher to bring uplifting messageBY JEFF YORK
For the Daily Corinthian
Honoring the legacy of Flight Paramedic Tom Timms, Air-Evac Lifeteam 58 and Magnolia Regional Health Center EMS are combining their efforts to host the 2nd Annual Tom Timms Memorial Golf Tournament.
Slated for 9 a.m. on Friday, May 22 at the Shiloh Ridge Golf Course in Corinth, the char-ity fund-raising event will take place during National EMS week.
“We felt like it was a great way to not only remember our late friend and co-worker, but also to honor our local EMS and let them know their commu-nity is proud of what they do,” said Ron Strom, a paramedic at MRHC.“We want to all come together and celebrate Tom’s life while raising money for the things that Tom cared so much for, EMS and the people of Corinth.”
“Last year’s four-person scramble was a big success,” he added. “We look forward to an-other fun time with our friends and family.”
Friday, May 15 is the deadline to register and the cost to par-ticipate is $260 per team.
Door prizes and cash awards will be presented to the win-ners of the Long Drive Contest, closest to the pin on all par 3 holes and several other exciting events.
Sponsorship opportunities are available. For $200 businesses can sponsor a hole on the golf course and have their company
logo added to it.
Individual teams can also sponsor a hole for $400. The cost includes entry for one team in the scramble and a company logo for one hole.
The Memorial Fund which honors the life, values and char-acter of Tom donated two AED’s to the local community, several lifesaving devices to the police, sheriff and highway Patrol and over $6,000 in scholarships in 2014.
“We had 33 teams participate last year and it was a beautiful day to play golf,” said Strom. “We are really excited about this year and look forward to donat-ing more to the community Tom cared so much about.”
Applications for scholarship awards must be received by Monday, April 20. Interested individuals should contact by email Ricki Barnett at [email protected] or Rebecca Timms at [email protected]. Applications can be mailed to TTMF P.O. Box 2584 Corinth,
MS 38835 or dropped off at the Air-Evac 58 base in Corinth.
Timms began his EMS career as a volunteer fi refi ghter with Farmington F.D. in 2003 be-fore becoming a paramedic with MRHC EMS where he served his community for nine years.
In addition to MRHC, he also worked for North Missis-sippi Medical Center EMS in Iuka. At the time of his death, he was a Flight Paramedic Air-Evac Lifeteam member with AE 58 in Corinth where he served for three years. A 1986 Kossuth High School graduate, Timms earned his certifi cation through the Northwest Shoals Commu-nity College National Register Paramedic. He was proud to be the leader of a local Boy Scout troop and enjoyed being a mem-ber of the Pig–Medic Cooking Team.
The 45-year-old dedicated most of his time to helping oth-ers in need and loved being in-volved in EMS. A devoted father, husband and friend, he is dearly missed by all who knew him.
The organizers of the event wished to thank the community for its generous support and said they look forward to hosting an-other successful tournament.
(For more information about the golf tournament, contact Ricki Barnett by phone at 662-415-1397 or by the email listed above or call Ryan Smith at 662-415-1112. Checks should be made payable to the CREATE Foundation with Tom Timms Memorial Fund in Memo line.)

Kick Butts DayThe Corinth Boys and Girls Club marked Kick Butts Day, an annual event aimed at encour-
aging young people to avoid the dangers of tobacco use, with a basketball tournament and a visit from Mississippi Tobacco Free
Coalition Project Director Emily McGrath, who shared information on the risks of tobacco
and encouraged the members to remain to-bacco free.
JACKSON — A former University of Mississippi student has been indicted on federal charges connected to a noose being put on a statue of the student who integrat-ed the school, the Justice Department said Friday.
The noose and a former Georgia fl ag that prominent-ly featured the Confederate battle emblem were placed on the James Meredith stat-ue on the Ole Miss campus in Oxford in February 2014. In 1962, anti-integration protests erupted into vio-lence and Meredith had to be escorted by armed federal agents as he enrolled under court order as the fi rst black student at the university.
The Justice Department said in a news release Friday that Graeme Phillip Harris of Alpharetta, Georgia, has been indicted on one count of conspiracy to violate civil rights and one count of us-ing a threat of force to in-timidate African-American students because of their race or color.
Harris, who is white, was an Ole Miss student when the noose was placed on the statue. University spokes-man Danny Blanton said Friday that Harris is no lon-ger enrolled.

Kids just love snow days, don’t they?“Hey mom, it’s snowing! Do we have to go
to school?”How many times have parents heard this
over the years?The excitement fades away as quickly as
melting snow when it comes to payback time.Giving up Spring Break, going to school
an extra hour each day, having class on Sat-urdays or going to school into the month of June are not fun options for either students or educators.
But it’s the reality when school districts have more snow days than those scheduled into the calendar.
Thanks to an attorney general’s opinion, guidance from the Mississippi Department of Education and local school board action, students and educators in the Corinth and Alcorn school districts won’t have to face any of those ugly options.
Both districts will be out of school as planned in the calendar. We are certain it is a welcome relief for all.
The Alcorn School District has revised its school calendar after a special meeting Tues-day night following the attorney general’s decision on missed days due to inclement weather.
School will not be in session on April 6, the Monday following Easter. School will also end on May 27 as originally scheduled.
Before the attorney general’s opinion, Al-corn County students were faced with going to school into June.
Earlier in March, state legislators met with the attorney general and the Department of Education seeking answers. Soon, the De-partment of Education announced new opin-ions and guidelines on the weather waiver.
The Corinth School District on Monday amended the school calendar to 177 student days to refl ect the inclement weather waiver.
Corinth students missed fi ve days during a series of winter storms in late February and the fi rst week of March.
Alcorn County students missed six days during the same stretch.
The Corinth calendar had two built-in snow days, leaving three days the district would otherwise have been forced to reschedule.
Classes will remain dismissed on Good Friday, April 3, and the last day of school in Corinth will remain May 21.
Thanks to the weather waiver and the local action of our school boards, we are glad our local school calendars will stay the same.

A verse to share
As the European Coal and Steel Community of Jean Monnet evolved into the EU, we were told a “United States of Europe” was at hand, modeled on the USA. And other countries and continents will inevitably follow Europe’s example.
There will be a North American Union of the U.S., Canada and Mexico, and a Latin America Union of the Mercosur trade part-nership.
In an essay, “The E.U. Experiment Has Failed,” Bruce Thornton of Hoover Institution makes the case that the verdict is in, the dream is dead, the EU is unraveling, One Europe is fi nished.
Consider, fi rst, econom-ics. In 2013, Europe grew by 1 percent compared to the U.S.’s 2.2 percent. In De-cember, unemployment in Europe was 11.4 percent. In the U.S., 5.6 percent. Amer-icans are alarmed by the lowest labor force participa-tion rate since Reagan, 62.7 percent. In Europe, in 2013, it was 57.5 percent.
Europeans may wail over German-imposed “auster-ity,” but the government share of Europe’s GDP has gone from 45 percent in 2008 to 49 percent today. In Greece, it is 59 percent.
Most critical is the demo-graphic crisis. For a nation to survive, its women must produce on average 2.1 chil-dren. Europe has not seen that high a fertility rate in 40 years. Today, it is down to 1.6 children.
Europeans are an aging, shrinking, disappearing, dying race.
And the places of Europe’s
unborn are being fi lled by growing “concentra-tions of unas-similated and disaf fected Muslim im-m i g r a n t s , s e g r e g a t e d in neighbor-hoods like
the banlieues of Paris or the satellite ‘dish cities’ of Am-sterdam.
“Shut out from labor markets, plied with gener-ous social welfare payments and allowed to cultivate beliefs and cultural prac-tices inimical to democracy, many of these immigrants despise their new homes, and fi nd the religious com-mitment and certainty of radical Islam an attractive alternative.”
“Some turn to terrorism,” like the French-Algerian brothers who carried out the slaughter at the maga-zine Charlie Hebdo.
Populist parties are surg-ing – the U.K. Independence Party in Britain, the Nation-al Front in France, and now the “Patriotic Europeans against the Islamization of the Occident,” PEGIDA, in Germany, These parties will soon be strong enough to enter governments, impose restrictions on immigration and demand assimilation.
Then the cultural con-fl icts may turn violent.
A fundamental question has troubled European unifi cation since the Treaty of Rome in 1957, writes Thornton: “What comprises the collective beliefs of and values that can form the foundations of a genuine
European-wide communi-ty? What is it that all Euro-peans believe?
“Europe and its nations were forged in the matrix of ideas, ideals, and beliefs of Christianity, which gives di-vine sanction to notions like human rights, the sanctity of the individual, political freedom and equality. To-day across Europe Christian belief is a shadow of its for-mer self.
“Fewer and fewer Eu-ropeans regularly go to Church. ... It is common for many European cathe-drals to have more tourists during a service than pa-rishioners. ... This process of secularization – already well advanced in 1887 when Nietzsche famously said, ‘God is no more than a faded word today, not even a concept’ – is nearly com-plete today, leaving Europe without its historical prin-ciple of unity.”
Political religions – com-munism, fascism, Nazism – are substitute gods that failed. “Nor has secular so-cial democracy ... provided people with a transcendent principle that justifi es sacri-fi ce for the greater good, or even gives people a reason to reproduce.
“A shared commitment to leisure, a short workweek, and a generous social safety net is nothing worth killing or dying for.”
And who will die for Donetsk, Luhansk or Crimea?
Pacifi sm beckons. Every major European nation in NATO – Britain, France, Germany, Italy, Poland – will see defense spending in 2015 below 2 percent of
GDP.The idea of One Eu-
rope has depended on “the denigration of patriotism and national pride,” writes Thornton, “Yet all peoples are the products of a par-ticular culture, language, mores, traditions, histories, landscapes. ... That sense of belonging to a community defi ned by a shared iden-tity cannot be created by a single currency.”
Christianity gave Europe its faith, identity, purpose and will to conquer and convert the world. Christi-anity created Europe. And the death of Christianity leaves the continent with no unifying principle save a watery commitment to de-mocracy and La Dolce Vita.
From Marine Le Pen’s France to Putin’s Russia, nationalism and patriotism are surging across Europe because peoples, deprived of or disbelieving in the old faith, want a new faith to give meaning, purpose, vitality to their lives, some-thing to live for, fi ght for, die for.
Countless millions of Muslims have found in their old faith their new faith. And the descendants of fallen-away European Christians of the 19th and 20th centuries are fi nding their new faith in old tribal and national identities.
Less and less does mul-ticulturalism look like the wave of the future.

Is the European Union dying?
She can’t announce. Can’t raise funds. Can’t even face the allegations against her. While her political advisors may be urging her to be out-spoken in her own defense, her lawyers are doubtless advising silence. Because the emails of the secretary of state almost inevitably allude to classifi ed infor-mation, Hillary’s actions in running them through a pri-vate server may subject her to the same kind of crimi-nal liability that has laid the likes of David Petraeus, Sandy Berger and John Deutch low. She must go into any press event know-ing that all she says can and will be used against her.
Nor can she change the subject. No media will cover her pronouncements about policy or her latest homily to the rights of women and girls while this scandal fi lls the air.
And the scandal will take months to play out. The timing is not under her con-trol. She could be dodging subpoenas as she goes to
campaign in the primary for Super Tuesday.
After all, what is in those emails? More evidence of a cover-up in Benghazi? The real reason we were there in the fi rst place? Complic-ity in the wiretapping of foreign leaders? Doubts about the very sanctions on Iran the administration is now crediting with starting the negotiations? Support for arming the rebels in Syria who became the ISIS thugs? Demonstrations of her gullibility and naivete in dealings with Russia? The emails will open up the former secretary of state to a degree of scrutiny that should would not have oth-erwise had to face.
With fi ling deadlines coming this fall, Democrats are increasingly realizing that if they don’t have an understudy for Hillary, the show may be over, bringing down the curtain on Demo-cratic rule. It’s one thing to have a consensus nominee. It’s quite another to enter perilous waters without an alternative should things go south.
Not since the days of
Ulysses Grant has a major party entered a presidential contest with only one candi-date to its name. Now that this sole contender has been wounded, worried Demo-crats are coming to appreci-ate the vulnerability of their party’s position.
Will Hillary recover her balance and overcome the email scandal? Or will she face criminal investigation over misuse of classifi ed materials? Will the drip-drip-drip of newly pub-lished emails paralyze her candidacy as worried law-yers guard her every utter-ance? Nobody knows. But all are becoming sure that putting all of the party’s bets on one candidate, es-pecially as she tries to walk this legal tightrope, is not the way to go.
Especially not when there is a ready alternative – also a woman, clearly a liberal, highly articulate and popu-lar with the party’s base – so readily available.
The days when the nomi-nation seeks the candi-date may appear quaint in our era of billion-dollar campaigns, but Elizabeth
Warren may be the fi rst “drafted” candidate since Eisenhower.
For her part, Warren can remain essentially passive, permitting her supporters to enter her name into pres-idential primaries simply as a precaution should Hillary get knocked out by her own emails. It would not be an act of ambition, just one of party loyalty, to allow her name to be put forward. She could even adopt a pos-ture not unlike that of Ger-ald Ford, who let himself be nominated vice president, even as he staunchly advo-cated Nixon’s retention in offi ce.
Hillary’s candidacy does not need to crash and burn for Warren to let her name be entered. It has only to be damaged to the point where Democrats want a backup, a low threshold indeed.

Hundreds at funeral of man found hanged
PORT GIBSON — Loss and healing were the fo-cus of eulogies as more than 200 people packed a Baptist church for the memorial service for a black man found hanging behind his home in Mis-sissippi.
The Vicksburg Post reports that 54-year-old Otis Byrd was mentioned just a handful of times during the 90-minute service Friday at Mount Burner Baptist Church in Pattison.
State, local and fed-eral authorities continue to investigate whether Byrd’s death was suicide or murder.
Claiborne County Sher-iff Marvin Lucas says FBI profilers were in Port Gib-son, gathering evidence. He also said Friday that Byrd’s hands were not bound and it appeared Byrd had not stepped off anything.
Medicaid, colleges’ budgets to increase
JACKSON — Mississip-pi’s budget writers say Medicaid, universities and community colleges will get more money than previous estimates called for in the year be-ginning July 1, in a total budget of $6.1 billion.
House Appropria-tions Committee Chair-man Herb Frierson and Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman Buck Clarke say they will add $81 million to the state-federal Medicaid program, as well as $25 million or more for uni-versities and $9 million for community colleges.
Gov. Phil Bryant al-ready signed a $2.5 bil-lion K-12 education bud-get that lawmakers sent to him early, in an unusu-
al move. Some lawmak-ers sought to add money to expand state-funded preschool and raise pay for assistant teachers, but budget chairmen say that’s unlikely.
13 candidates enter congressional race
JACKSON — Thirteen people have qualified to run for an open congres-sional seat in north Mis-sissippi.
Although candidates run without party labels in special elections, most in the race identify as Republicans.
Friday was the deadline for candidates to enter the 1st District race to succeed the late Republi-can Rep. Alan Nunnelee, who died of brain cancer in early February. Nun-nelee was first elected in 2010, after serving 15 years as a state senator from Tupelo.
The special election is May 12, and a runoff is June 2. The winner will serve most of the two-year term that Nunnelee started in January.
The 13 who qualified by Friday’s 5 p.m. dead-line are:
— Boyce Adams of Columbus, president of a software business called TheBiz.
— Sam Adcock of Co-lumbus, who has worked for Airbus Helicopters and has been a defense and security adviser to former Sen. Trent Lott, R-Miss.
— Nancy Collins of Tupelo, a state senator who has worked as a nurse and is founding president of Sanctuary Hospice House.
— Edward Holliday of Tupelo, a dentist.
— Dr. Starner Jones of Pontotoc, an emergency room physician.
— Trent Kelly of Tupe-lo, who is district attor-ney for Lee, Pontotoc, Al-
corn, Monroe, Itawamba, Prentiss and Tishomingo counties.
— Chip Mills of Fulton, an attorney who serves as Itawamba County prosecutor.
— Greg Pirkle of Tu-pelo, an attorney.
— Henry Ross of Eupora, an attorney, for-mer mayor and former circuit judge who ran un-successfully for the 1st District seat in 2010 and 2012.
— Daniel Sparks of Belmont, an attorney.
— Mike Tagert of Starkville, the northern district state transporta-tion commissioner.
— Quentin Whitwell of Oxford, an attorney and businessman who previ-ously served on the Jack-son City Council.
— Zinn, of Pontotoc, an attorney who has worked as an adviser for former Jackson mayors Harvey Johnson Jr. and Chokwe Lumumba.
Ole Miss chancellor: Job talks continue
JACKSON — University of Mississippi Chancellor Dan Jones and trustees said Friday that they’re still talking about renew-ing his contract, but that they haven’t yet reached an agreement.
“It’s likely going to take a couple of days for us to consummate our dis-cussion,” Jones said in a phone interview.
The 12-member Col-lege Board met for more than 90 minutes in closed session Friday afternoon. But it’s un-clear whether trustees, who oversee all eight of Mississippi’s public uni-versities, took any votes. Afterward, Higher Educa-tion Commissioner Jim Borsig, the board’s chief executive, emphasized that the board wants to keep talks under wraps.

2 still missing after apparent gas blast
NEW YORK — Emer-gency workers contin-ued searching Saturday for at least two people still missing after an apparent gas line explo-sion leveled three Man-hattan apartment build-ings while investigators piece together what exactly caused the blast that injured 22.
Special canine units sniffed for anyone pos-sibly still trapped be-neath the heap of loose brick and rubble two days after the explo-sion. Detectives issued posters seeking infor-mation on the where-abouts of two men be-lieved to have been in the sushi restaurant on the ground floor of one of the collapsed build-ings: 26-year-old Moi-ses Lucon, who worked at the restaurant, and 23-year-old Nicholas Figueroa, a bowling alley worker who had been there on a date.
Their families franti-cally searched, showing photos of their loved ones and asking for help.
Americans seeking property Cuba took
OMAHA, Neb. — The smell of Cuban coffee drifts from the kitchen as Carolyn Chester digs through faded photos that fill boxes spread across the dining table.
In almost every frame, an American man with a salt-and-pepper mustache and a raven-haired woman — Chester’s parents — smiling at good fortune that, they could not know, would soon be snatched away.
“I always heard about Cuba ... and all this money that we lost and
‘Maybe one day,’ but I didn’t understand it,” Chester says.
Six decades later, that day may finally be nearing for Chester and others like her. To reach it, though, diplomacy will have to settle very old scores.
After Fidel Castro seized power in 1959, Cuba confiscated property belonging to thousands of American citizens and compa-nies. Edmund and Enna Chester lost an 80-acre farm, thousands of dol-lars’ worth of stock, and a Buick that, who knows, may still be ply-ing Havana’s streets.
In 1996, Congress passed a law insisting Cuba pay for confiscat-ed property, valued to-day at $7 billion, before lifting the U.S. embargo.
Boston expecting a flood of claims
BOSTON — After the Big Dig-out, it’s time for the Big Payout. Or will it be the Big Denial?
New England’s epic winter is on pace to produce a correspond-ing number of claims as thousands of homeown-ers seek to repair dam-age. Successive storms dumped 110 inches of snowfall in Boston alone, a record for an entire season.
“It’s a part-time job just to navigate it all,” says Cathy Schwarz, a Plymouth resident who is working with her insurer and repair com-panies after rooftop ice dams caused leaks in her house. “Everybody says you’ll get through this, but all I can see is a house that’s just not livable right now.”
The winter was so unusually severe that governors across the six-state region have
requested or are in the process of requesting federal disaster relief to help state and local governments pay for snow removal and other costs. The requests, however, would not cover home or private property damage.
Local insurance agents and public ad-justers — firms that help homeowners navi-gate the claim process — say they’ve been swamped with inquiries.
Suppliers asked to breed no-horn cows
DES MOINES, Iowa — Food manufacturers and restaurants are tak-ing the dairy industry by the horns on an animal welfare issue that’s long bothered activists but is little known to consum-ers: the painful removal of budding horn tissue from calves so farm workers or other animals don’t get gored later.
It’s routine to remove the horn tissue from young calves before it attaches to the skull, either by burning it out with heat or chemicals or digging it out with sharp instruments.
Certain cows carry a dominant no-horn genet-ic trait, and are called polled cows. Research has shown it’s cheaper to breed polled cattle than to dehorn cows, but experts say the dairy industry has been slow to expand polled genet-ics because it’s been focused on boosting milk productivity. Yet, the change may come sooner than produc-ers expected, as some of the nation’s largest food companies, such as General Mills, Nestle and Dunkin’ Brands, are asking dairy suppliers to incorporate polled cattle into their herds.

dents up to 9th grade must participate in a sci-ence fair, Streff present-ed his project at the BHS science fair, held in the school’s gymnasium on Friday, Jan 23.
After successfully prov-ing his case, the Corinth resident was surprised to learn he had not only de-fended his viewpoint, but also won fi rst place in the school competition.
Citing research as the toughest part of his proj-ect, Steff said he had fun making his argument.
“I’m pretty sure my mom was going to get it for me anyway, but this was a lot more interest-ing,” he said.
Shortly after winning at his school’s fair, Steff was invited to Northeast Community College for the Mississippi Region IV Science Fair where he walked away with the Mu Alpha Theta Award.
“Dylan was also named a 2015 Intel Internation-al Science and Engineer-ing Fair Finalist and will have the opportunity as one of only 11 students in the state to travel to Pittsburgh, Penn. on
Sunday, May 10, through Friday, May 15, for the international competi-tion,” said BHS Principal Chad Lindamood. “He left before the ceremony got started not realizing when it was. So, we were surprised and excited when he got the phone call saying he had won some major awards.”
Echoing the principals
sentiment, Streff’s Biol-ogy I instructor, Daniel Rowsey expressed pride for his student’s accom-plishments saying he came up with the creative idea all on his own and only advised him on how to best set up his board.
“Dylan has always en-joyed science fair proj-ects and that’s because he chooses to research what
he is interested in and has background knowledge in. Of course, hoping for a diesel himself if he suc-cessfully proved his hy-pothesis to his mom was a tremendous moti-vator, too,” said Rowsey who also taught Streff in the 7th and 8th grade. “He was careful to follow all guidelines, thoroughly research his topic and il-
lustrate his fi ndings. He not only gathered in-formation, but he also used his critical thinking skills and drew conclu-sions based on data anal-ysis.”
“His awards are well deserved, and he is an outstanding representa-tive for Biggersville High School and the Alcorn School District,” he add-ed.
A farmer for several years, Dylan Streff drives a tractor for Brandon Moore and has ambi-tions to become a chemi-cal salesman.
In his spare time, the soon to be 16-year-old enjoys riding 4-wheelers, working hard and hang-ing out with friends.
He is excited about the upcoming purchase of his new truck.
In addition to Streff, two other BHS students won awards. Lynleigh Crabb earned fi rst place at state competition for her supermarket sweep where she swabbed different surfaces at Walmart in search of lurking bacteria. Like-wise, Noah Lawson won fi rst place at the science fair held at NEMCC.

National Park Day, co-spon-sored by the Civil War Trust and the History Channel, has been held the past 19 years. Support-ers use the time to preserve and maintain historical treasures
such as Shiloh National Military Park and the Interpretive Cen-ter.
Volunteers used the 9 a.m. to noon time at the Interpretive Center to pull feeds from around rose bushes and mulch the area.
“Since the weather changed from earlier in the week we didn’t want them dipping their hands in cold water and cleaning the bronze features on the walk-way,” said Henson.
Those who took part in the day received a free Park Day T-shirt and patch courtesy of the Civil War Trust.

WASHINGTON — There is little effective, real-world screening of airline pilots for mental problems despite reg-ulations in the U.S., Europe and elsewhere that say mental health should be part of their regular medical exams, pilots and safety experts said.
The crash of Germanwings Flight 9525 into an Alpine mountain, which killed all 150 people aboard, has raised ques-
tions about the mental state of the co-pilot. Authorities believe the co-pilot deliberately sought to destroy the Airbus A320 as it fl ew Tuesday.
Technically, doctors are supposed to probe for mental problems, but pilots said that’s usually not how it works.
“There really is no men-tal health vetting,” said John Gadzinski, a captain with a major U.S. airline and former Navy pilot.

“Stealing the Game” by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Raymond Obstfeld
c.2015, Disney Hyper-ion $16.99 / $17.99 Can-ada 293 pages
Oh, how you hate to lose!
You hate it so much, in fact, that it’s not really an option: you’ll do any-thing and work hardest to make sure that you’re not fi nishing last. It’s all or nothing for you, and in the new book “Steal-ing the Game” by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Ray-mond Obstfeld, it’s about more than how you play the game.
Everyone at Orangetree Middle School knew that thirteen-year-old Chris Richards was someone they could trust, a decent-enough student, but kind of quiet. Even Chris him-self would admit that, and he was okay with it. He
always thought his obser-vation skills were better than anything else he did, except maybe basketball.
Yep, Chris was a good kid. So it came as a huge surprise to everyone when a cop came to al-gebra class and escorted him to the principal’s of-fi ce.
The whole mess started four days earlier.
Jax, Chris’s older broth-er was the “Golden Boy.” Always likeable, good-hearted, smart, capable, and responsible, Jax had spent the last year at Stanford University on a full scholarship, study-ing to being a lawyer. The Richards – both lawyers – were proud of him but when Jax came home and announced that he’d quit school, well, it was like World War III had started in the living room.
Chris had always looked up to Jax, and Jax’s be-havior didn’t make sense. Then again, in Chris’s
world, not much did. Girls were a total mystery, teachers were a surprise, and most of his classes were a struggle. But bas-ketball… now, that made sense. For Chris, the only thing better than a good pick-up game was draw-ing comics.
Ever since his parents started pushing Chris to-ward college, he wished he could tell them that being a comic book artist was what he wanted to do someday. He loved com-ics, loved collecting them, and he loved imagining ways that his own main character, Master Thief, could save the world.
But Master Thief couldn’t save Jax. Jax, in fact, was in big trouble and he needed Chris’s help with a real burglary.
Jax, you see, had a se-cret life, too…
Ka-thunk-ka-thunk-ka-thunk. If you’ve got a basketball fan around, that’s a familiar sound at
your house. But you’ll si-lence that sound for a few hours, if you can swap the ball for this book.
More than just a bas-ketball novel, “Stealing the Game” is also a mys-tery, solved by a sharp, smart, funny, and genu-inely nice thirteen-year-old. The real Dream Team of authors Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Raymond Ob-stfeld introduce readers to that kind of kid, the one you wish your kids would hang out with - but while Chris Richards is surely the star here, the whole rest of the cast of this story appealed to me, too. And the book’s Big Reveal? It’s perfect. Three points.
Another nice thing: there’s a strong girl b-baller here as well, which means that this isn’t just a book for boys. Actually, it’s not just a book for kids, either: for anybody, any age, “Stealing the Game” is a win.
Basketball star creates compelling mystery for youthBY TERRI
SCHLICHENMEYERThe Bookworm Sez
“It’s impossible!” is an often used excuse for
not doing something. However , every in-v e n t i o n , d i s c o v -ery, and a d v a n c e throughout history is the result of someone striving for
and accomplishing the impossible.
When you think some-thing is impossible, you tell yourself you can’t do it, and you won’t. Con-versely, if you feel some-thing is possible, you will tell yourself you can do it, and you will.
History has repeatedly proven that those that declare impossibility are invariably wrong. So how can you ever claim with
certainty to know what is and isn’t possible? Or how can anyone who is offering you advice as to what is impossible know?
You are limited by your thinking, not by what you know or what you have. While you are convincing yourself of all the reasons something is impossible, there are people accom-plishing the very same thing. Conversely, while you are making progress toward a goal, there are those who have already convinced themselves it’s not possible.
Your perspective as to what is possible is based on your knowledge and experience. Impossibility is a state of mind, not an absolute. The only things you know are obtainable are those you have al-ready accomplished.
When you don’t strive for a goal, you have no
chance of attaining it. Don’t listen to anyone who tells you something is impossible. If you do, you will limit your accom-plishments. You must fi rst believe before you can achieve.
You should be striv-ing for the impossible. Anything worth achiev-ing takes effort. Although success isn’t easy, neither is struggling. Since life takes effort regardless of what you do, you may as well set your sights high.
When you strive for the impossible, you won’t have much competition. Most people are looking for routes requiring little or no effort. They prefer the path of least resistance.
Ignore the naysayers. Listening to those who profess to know that which is possible and impossible have noth-ing to offer you. Listen-
ing to them inhibits any progress you would have made. Often these people assert that their claims of impossibility are merely realistic.
They will tell you that they are only looking out for your best interests and don’t want to see you get hurt. Although they may be well intentioned, you have nothing to gain by aban-doning your dreams based on someone else’s opinion.
Throughout history, if people only attempted that which is accepted to be possible, we would still be living in caves in the Stone Age. Take inspira-tion from the long list of innovators who have con-sistently achieved the im-possible.
Look to those who are where you want to be.
Study their approach. Learn from their ex-periences of how they achieved their goals. Peo-ple who have strived for, and achieved the impossi-ble are a great inspiration.
Success isn’t easy, but it’s worth the effort. Loft-ier goals are more diffi -cult to attain than their ordinary counterparts. However, once achieved, the sense of satisfaction is awesome. How much you get out of life is directly connected to how much you put in.
Dream big. Break free of any self-imposed or externally imposed limi-tations. Anything you can conceive and believe is possible. Conversely, impossibility exists if you believe it does. It is exclu-sively your outlook which

SAN FRANCISCO — Facebook’s Messenger app is evolving into a mul-titasking tool equipped to send an animated fi st bump to a friend at one moment and then get a little business done in the next.
In an effort to pull off the transformation, Facebook Inc. is open-ing Messenger so outside programmers can build features tailored for the service. By the end of April, Messenger will also be adding the ability to display store receipts and shipping information to help consumers keep track of their interactions with merchants and other businesses.
The push to diversify Messenger addresses a potential threat to Face-book’s ubiquitous social network posed by a vari-ety of mobile messaging maps offering more inti-mate and direct ways to connect with friends.
Younger people, in par-
ticular, are increasingly us-ing a wide range of mobile messaging apps to com-municate while spending less time broadcasting their activities on Face-book’s more expansive social network. The list of apps pulling people away from Facebook includes Snapchat, KakaoTalk, Kik, Line, Secret, Tango, Viber, and Whisper.
Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg touted the Messenger expansion Wednesday to about 2,000 app developers at the opening of a two-day con-ference in San Francisco.
“We have been build-ing Messenger into a ser-vice to express beyond text,” Zuckerberg said. He promised even more features will be rolling out the months ahead.
Since Messenger’s in-troduction four years ago, Facebook already has added the ability to attach video, share videos, swap stickers, make phone calls and send money.
Thanks largely to its Facebook ties, Messen-
ger already has more than 600 million users, Zuck-erberg said. Facebook’s social network is more than twice as large with about 1.4 billion users.
The social network re-mains the foundation for one of the Internet’s most successful businesses. Facebook’s revenue last year surged 58 percent to $12.5 billion, a perfor-mance that has enabled the company’s stock price to more than double from its initial public offering price of $38 in 2012. The shares hit a record high of $86.07 earlier this week, though they dropped $2.39 to close at $82.92 Wednesday amid a broad market downturn.
The growing popular-ity of mobile messaging, though, could result in less time spent on social networks, a shift that would give Facebook few-er opportunities to learn about its users’ interests and show the digital ads that make most of the company’s money.
That threat is propel-
ling Messenger’s expan-sion and also prompted Zuckerberg to spend $22 billion last year to buy WhatsApp, another mo-bile messaging service that has more than 700 million users.
A large segment of WhatsApp’s audience is located in less affl u-ent countries outside the U.S. and western Europe, making it more likely that it won’t be adding as many new tools as Messenger has, said David Marcus, who oversees Facebook’s messaging products. Most Messenger apps are installed on iPhones and top-of-the-line Android phones, which provide the processing power needed to handle a range of multipurpose tools.
Analysts widely expect Facebook to begin show-ing ads with Messenger as people spend more time in the app to do dif-ferent things, though the Menlo Park, California, company hasn’t revealed plans to turn the app into a marketing vehicle.
Facebook app mixes work, funBY MICHAEL LIEDTKE

WASHINGTON — The Department of Energy is reviving a vehicle loan program it pledged to retool after criticism it funded fl ops and wasted taxpayer money.
The department an-nounced Thursday it has reached a conditional, $259 million loan agree-ment with aluminum manufacturer Alcoa. The money will be used to fund an expansion of an Alcoa, Tennessee, facility
that manufactures high-strength aluminum used in fuel-effi cient cars.
The loan is the fi rst issued from the de-partment’s Advanced Technology Vehicles Man-ufacturing Program in four years, and comes a year after Energy Secretary Er-nest Moniz had promised to revamp the program.
Moniz said Thursday the program could play an im-portant role by “helping to fi nance expanded domes-tic manufacturing of fuel-effi cient technologies.”
Republicans have been sharply critical of the program and two other Energy Department loan programs after some high profi le failures.
Solar company Solyn-dra fi led for bankruptcy in 2011 after receiving a $535 million loan guar-antee. Fisker Automative, a manufacturer of elec-tronic cars, received $192 million in department loans before it fi led for bankruptcy in 2013. The department said it lost $139 million on the Fisker loan agreement.
Energy offi cials have maintained the loan pro-grams, funded by the 2009 stimulus, are largely
successful and on track to pay the government back with interest in the future. Last year, Moniz said the department would make changes to the vehicle loan program, promising to be more responsive to applicants and include parts and component manufacturers — like Al-coa — in the program.
Alcoa Chairman and CEO Klaus Kleinfeld said the loan program could “encourage a greater shift to aluminum intensive vehicles that are safer, lighter and more fuel-effi cient.” The company expects the loan to help it create 200 permanent, full-time jobs.

Dear Abby
Horoscopes
Don’t miss Crossroads Magazine Sports Rewind
coming in the May 2 editionof the Daily Corinthian.
Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian
DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have two daughters whom we have taught to use good manners.
We are proud that they al-ways remember to use their “pleases” and “thank yous” and many people have commented how polite they are.
My prob-lem is the majority of their friends have little to no manners at all.
They never thank me when we car-pool places or take them out for lunch or dinner.
I rarely hear “yes, please” when I offer food or beverages at my home.
Even my daughters say it at home!
Should I correct their behav-ior by asking them “What’s the magic word?”
Should I tell them I want them to use their manners when they are with me?
Should I speak to the parents about it?
Or am I expecting too much? -- MANNERS MAVEN
DEAR MANNERS MAVEN: I’m sorry you didn’t mention how old your daughters’ friends
are, but if they are over the age of 10, I recommend against ask-ing, “What’s the magic word?”
It would be more diplomatic to talk to the girls privately and convey your message.
If you prefer they use better manners in your home, it is your right to say that to them.
However, if you call the par-ents, the parents may think you are criticizing their parent-ing skills (and they wouldn’t be wrong).
As to whether you are expect-ing too much, frankly, you may be.
Sadly, adults who never learned good manners them-selves can’t pass them on to their children.
DEAR ABBY: About a year ago, I loaned a small amount of money to a close friend I have known since childhood.
She promised to pay me back, but has yet to do so. I wasn’t too concerned because it was a minimal amount, but a few months ago she asked to borrow a larger amount.
Again, I didn’t hesitate to help her out because she has been there for me several times in the past in important ways -- although they weren’t fi nancial.
Because the recent loan was a large one, I would like to be repaid.
How do I tactfully ask her for
the money without seeming petty or like I’m nagging?
(I don’t like confrontation.) And is it too late to ask that
the previous smaller amount be included as well? -- FRIEND, NOT AN ATM
DEAR FRIEND: You don’t have to be confrontational, and I wouldn’t advise it anyway.
In light of the fact that your friend has made no effort to re-pay the fi rst loan for an entire year, it would be neither pushy nor nagging to ASK when she intends to start.
If she can’t come up with the entire amount, perhaps she can repay a little each month.
However, if she can’t/won’t start paying you back, you may have to accept that you won’t be getting any of your money.
In the future, you should not lend anyone money without fi rst getting a signed note stating that the money is owed to you and when it will be repaid.
That way, if necessary, you can take the matter to court and have a leg to stand on when you get there.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). There’s great pleasure in fi nd-ing out something no one else knows about or, even better, in seeing what’s funny in the situ-ation before anyone else does.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). When you travel, you prefer to eat at the restaurant that is popular with the locals instead of dining at your favorite chain. There’s something intangible gained from getting a taste of other people’s daily life.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If you’re having a hard time getting comfortable in one place, move and try again. Being able to en-joy yourself in one circumstance will make it easier for you to fi nd enjoyment in another.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). What do you think would hap-pen if you volunteered to give a presentation? You would es-tablish yourself as an expert to more people than you know. This and other unexpected re-wards are favored to occur.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
gain wisdom by talking to peo-ple you don’t know well. It takes courage to even approach, so regardless of how the conver-sation goes, you can’t lose for trying.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Procrastination gets a bad repu-tation, but sometimes it’s the best answer to the problem. To-day procrastination will help you manage life -- it will keep every-thing from happening at once.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Each conversation is a chance for you to understand someone better, or to understand people in general better. That’s why careful listening is a gift you give to yourself while you’re giving it to others.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You believe everyone should feel free to speak his or her mind, heart and beliefs -- you just don’t want to hear it all. You have a right to your privacy and tranquility, and you’ll guard that now.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). The thing that touches you will also heal you. If it moves you to laugher, the laughter will be like a massage of your insides. And if it moves you to tears, the tears will wash your soul.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Gossip happens when people’s personal lives aren’t fulfi lling enough. Avoid, avoid, avoid! If you feel yourself being pulled in, ask yourself what you might do to add excitement to your hours.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You may not have a teacher now, but self-directed learning suits your current mindset even better than the structure of a class. You’ll learn from books and interviews and from diving in and doing it.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You may feel ambivalent, and that is a sign that you need more information before you can move forward with confi dence. Be honest about the way you’re using time. It can be a tool, or it can be a crutch.
Good manners are extinct among daughters’ friends

CLEVELAND — Pushed to the brink, Kentucky’s still perfect and still playing.
Andrew Harrison made two free throws with six sec-onds remaining, and the top-seeded Wildcats kept their unbeaten season and national title hopes intact with a 68-66 win over Notre Dame on Sat-urday night in the Midwest Regional fi nal.
The Wildcats (38-0) ad-
vanced to the Final Four in In-dianapolis next week, where they will meet Wisconsin.
It took everything Kentucky had to hold off the Fight-ing Irish (32-6), who came within seconds of shocking the tournament’s overwhelm-ing favorite. Notre Dame, which has a history of stun-ning upsets in football and basketball, wasn’t done until Jerian Grant’s double-clutch 3-pointer from the left corner was long.
Kentucky’s bench stormed the fl oor and the Wildcats, who only had one other two-point game this season, cel-ebrated knowing they had ducked a major challenge and are now just two wins from becoming the fi rst team to go undefeated since Indiana in 1976.
“We didn’t play very well and Notre Dame, I thought, controlled the whole thing, but we made the plays,” Ken-tucky coach John Calipari
said. “We fi gured out a way to win it. We’re just saying one more game, play our best. We’ve had other tests, but we have a will to win.”
Karl-Anthony Towns scored 25 to lead Kentucky, which trailed for most of the second half.
Zach Auguste scored 20, Steve Vasturia 16 and Grant 15 for the third-seeded Fight-ing Irish, playing in their fi rst

DUNEDIN, Fla. — Jose Bautista hit a two-run double for the split-squad Toronto Blue Jays in a 5-3 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Saturday.
Bautista doubled to the left-center fi eld gap off starter Alex Wood in the third inning, scoring Jose Reyes and Russell Martin.
Bautista, a fi ve-time All-Star, is bat-ting .324 with fi ve home runs and 12 RBIs in 14 exhibition games.
Wood gave up three runs on six hits in six innings. The left-hander also walked one and struck out two.
“He got himself in a couple jams. It was nice to see that he had to get out of those jams, working through those things, because sometimes you go 1-2-3, 1-2-3 every single time,” At-lanta manager Fredi Gonzalez said. “It’s a little different. You don’t get the adrenaline, the juices fl owing.”
“Today, he faced a really, really good, right-handed, dominant lineup and he did great,” he said.
Pitching for the fi rst time since sus-taining a minor ankle injury last Sun-day, Blue Jays starter Marco Estrada allowed an RBI single by Phil Goselin in the second. Estrada yielded fi ve hits and struck out three in three innings.
Jace Peterson hit a two-run double for the Braves.
Starting timeBlue Jays: Estrada, who hadn’t faced
hitters since March 15, said it took some time getting used to being on the mound.
“I’ll be honest, I felt a little weird being out there again,” Estrada said. “Just haven’t seen a hitter in a couple weeks almost, but overall arm-wise, I felt really good. Timing was a little off. I rushed a few pitches that I left up. ... But other than that, I felt pretty good.”
Trainer’s RoomBlue Jays: OF Michael Saunders
(torn meniscus) should begin running in the next couple days. He is expected to start the season on the disabled list. ... LHP Johan Santana (shoulder) has been progressing well as he continues to play catch, but isn’t expected to be-gin throwing off a mound until at least mid-April. The two-time AL Cy Young Award winner in camp on a minor league contract and has an April 28 opt-out clause.
Well wishesToronto manager John Gibbons
praised pitcher Kyle Drabek, who was claimed off waivers by the White Sox on Friday.
The righty was the centerpiece of a 2009 blockbuster trade that sent two-time Cy Young Award winner Roy Halladay to Philadelphia, but he never panned out with the Blue Jays. In fi ve seasons, Drabek was a combined 8-15 with a 5.27 ERA in 39 games.
“Good for him,” Gibbons said. “We would have loved to have kept him, but you know what, he gets another big league opportunity and we’re all pulling for him. He’s a great guy. He’s been through a lot.”
Bautista hits 2-run double for Blue Jays

ALBANY, N.Y. — Dayton and coach Jim Jabir have a new best day.
Andrea Hoover scored 26 points and the seventh-seed-ed Flyers (28-6) continued their improbable run in the NCAA Tournament with an 82-66 win over third-seeded Louisville in the regional semifi nals on Saturday.
Amber Deane added 15 points and Jodie Cornelie-Sigmundova had 12 points, 11 rebounds and four blocked shots for the Flyers, who won for the 11th time in their last 12 games.
Dayton, which beat No. 2 seed Kentucky in the second round, became just the fourth
No. 7 seed to advance to a re-gional fi nal since the fi eld ex-panded to 64 teams in 1994, and the fi rst since Mississippi in 2007.
“I thought the Kentucky game was the best day,” Jabir said. “And now I think this is the best day and not just be-cause it’s a trip to the Elite Eight. I think we rose to an occasion.”
Dayton led by a point at halftime. But a 3-pointer from Deane capped an 11-2 run early in the second half that pushed the lead to dou-ble digits, and the Flyers nev-er trailed after intermission.
Myisha Hines-Allen scored all 14 of her points in the sec-ond half to lead Louisville (27-7).
Dayton will face No. 1 UCo-nn, which routed Texas 105-54, on Monday night.
The Flyers shot 51 percent from the fl oor and made 26 of their 30 free throws. Hoover was 15 of 15 from the line, be-coming the fi rst player with a minimum of 12 attempts to shoot 100 percent from the line.
Coach Jim Jabir ran toward the stands after the fi nal horn sounded, giving praise to the Dayton fans, one of whom shouted “Who else from Ken-tucky can we beat,” as the fi -nal seconds wound down.
“As the buzzer went off, I couldn’t fi nd enough people to hug,” Hoover said. “We’ve been working so hard for these goals, and now our pro-
gram is at new levels.”The Flyers made 11 3-point-
ers against the Wildcats. They were just 2 of 10 from behind the arc in this one, but out-scored the Cardinals 42-34 in the paint.
Louisville was just 1 of 15 from 3-point range and shot just 31.5 percent for the game.
Jude Schimmel, the Cardi-nals’ senior fl oor leader, hit just four of her 23 shots and fi nished with 11 points.
Hines-Allen picked up two fouls in the game’s fi rst two minutes and sat until inter-mission. She picked up her fourth foul with more than 8 minutes left and the Cardi-nals trailing just 58-53.

ALBANY, N.Y. — Geno Auriemma reached another milestone in record fashion.
The Hall of Famer became the second coach to achieve 100 victories in the NCAA Tournament as his UConn Huskies pulled off a record rout of Texas, 105-54, on Saturday in the Sweet 16. Auriemma joined Pat Sum-mitt, who fi nished with 112 victories in her career, as the only two coaches in men’s or
women’s basketball to reach that milestone.
“That’s lots of wins, 100 wins in the NCAA tourna-ment,” Auriemma said. “Some people don’t get to play in the NCAA tournament ever or play a couple games. We’ve been pretty fortunate. We didn’t win anything in the NCAA in our fi rst couple years.”
The Huskies stand three victories away from a third straight national champion-ship and 10th overall. UConn
will face Dayton in the region-al fi nals after the seventh-seeded Flyers upset Louisville 82-66.
Breanna Stewart was a key reason why the Huskies set the NCAA record for margin of victory in the regionals and beyond. The junior star had 31 points, 12 rebounds and seven assists.
“(Today) was a lot of fun,” Stewart said. “Right from the start shots were going in and we were being aggressive. ... Texas has a big presence
inside, big post players. We knew if we got them moving a little bit, we could get any shot we wanted.”
The Huskies shot a blister-ing 56 percent from the fi eld and became the eighth team to put up more than 100 points in the regionals.
“Like I said to the coaching staff at Texas, when you shoot the ball as well as we did, we’re a really hard team to play against,” Auriemma said.
UConn steamrolls past Texas, reaches regional final

LOS ANGELES — Frank Kaminsky and the Wisconsin Badgers hung on to make the Final Four again.
“Frank the Tank” scored 29 points, Sam Dekker added his second straight career high of 27 and the West Regional’s top seed beat No. 2 Arizona 85-78 on Saturday to reach consecutive Final Fours for
the fi rst time in school his-tory.
The Badgers (35-3) denied the Wildcats (34-4) a Final Four berth for the second straight year, having beaten them by one point in overtime in Anaheim a year ago when their seeds were reversed.
Wisconsin and 67-year-old coach Bo Ryan head to India-napolis next week hoping for another shot at undefeated
and top-seeded Kentucky, which beat the Badgers by one point in the national semifi nals last year.
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Brandon Ashley scored 17 points each for the Wild-cats, who once again failed to deliver a fi rst-time Final Four appearance for coach Sean Miller. T.J. McConnell added 14 points in his last college game and Kaleb Tarczewski
and Gabe York had 11 each.Just like a year ago, Ka-
minsky came up big for the Badgers. He sidestepped and slithered, pivoted and de-ked in eluding the Wildcats’ lockdown defense. Arizona tossed its biggest bodies on the 7-footer and he still found ways to score inside and out.

regional fi nal in 36 years.There was no doubt
Notre Dame belonged. The ACC tournament champions controlled the tempo and weren’t intimated by the Wild-cats and their collection
of high school All-Amer-icans and soon-to-be NBA millionaires.
Calipari insisted on Friday his team was not perfect, only unbeaten and that any team left in the tournament was capable of toppling the top Cats.
3-point attempts in the second half, outscoring the Wildcats 30-3 from long range.
Arizona pressured full court in the last 4 min-utes, making for some perilous possessions by the Badgers as they dart-ed and passed trying to safely get the ball down court.
A long inbounds pass by Wisconsin was nearly intercepted before Josh Gasser grabbed it, got fouled and made both free throws to keep the Badgers ahead by 10 points.
The Wildcats twice got within fi ve points
in the last 2½ minutes, but both times Dekker dashed their hopes with arcing 3-pointers.
Kaminsky led the Bad-gers’ offensive outburst to start the second half. He scored eight of their 14 points, working their inside-outside game to perfection in fi nding Dekker for a 3-pointer to put Wisconsin ahead 44-36.
Hollis-Jefferson and Tarczewski picked up their third fouls and freshman Stanley John-son left the game to have his contact lens adjusted, all in quick succession. It didn’t faze the Wildcats, who went on a 10-3 run to close to 47-46.
UConn (35-1) led 26-19 midway through the fi rst half before blowing the game open with a 44-9 run spanning the half. The burst started with 13 straight points by the Huskies.
UConn led 52-24 at the half and scored 18 points in the fi rst 3:30 of the second half to fi nish off the run.
Stewart surpassed her previous NCAA Tourna-ment best of 29 points before leaving the game for good with just over 9 minutes left. Moriah Jef-ferson added a career-high 25 points — hitting 10 of her 12 shots — for the Huskies, who have advanced to the regional fi nal for 10 straight sea-sons. They have been to the Final Four a record
seven straight years.“I can’t say enough
about these two guys,” Auriemma said. “It seemed like they were on a whole different lev-el than anyone else who was playing. You almost come to expect that from Stewie at this time of year. To see Moriah do what she did today, she’s come a long way in two years. I couldn’t be hap-pier for these guys.”
Texas was making its fi rst trip to the Sweet 16 since 2004. Coach Karen Aston has a young roster and the Longhorns may not have to wait long to get back. Ariel Atkins scored 11 to lead Texas (24-11). The Longhorns tried to slow the Hus-kies down with their big lineup of 6-foot-7 Imani Stafford-McGee and 6-5 Kelsey Lang.
With Hines-Allen out of the game, the Fly-ers went on a 10-0 run to push the lead to 15 points. “It really hurt us,” Hines-Allen said of the fouls before break-ing down in tears on the podium. “It was a selfi sh part of me, getting two early fouls.”
Dayton capitalized on Hines-Allen’s early foul trouble by going inside to Jodie Cornelie-Sig-mundova. The 6-foot-4 center from France had eight fi rst-half points, and Dayton used a 13-0 Dayton run to turn an 18-11 defi cit into 24-18 lead.
But the Flyers also committed 14 fi rst-half turnovers. They had just fi ve in the second half.
“What I love so much about our team is that we never look at the scoreboard,” said Deane. “We just play and play as
hard as we can.”
Tip ins
Dayton: The Flyers improved to 111-10 over their last 121 games when scoring more than 70 points, and 24-1 this season. Dayton has hit at least one three-point shot in 448 consecutive games.
Louisville: Cardinals coach Jeff Walz falls to 20-7 in NCAA Touran-ment games. His win-ning percentage among active coaches coming in was second only to UConn’s Geno Auriem-ma. This was just the third time in 16 games that Louisville has lost an NCAA Tournament game when coming in as a higher seed.

Proving the force is defi nitely with him, Mike Bouchillon has amassed a collection of over 200 pieces of “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” “Lost in Space” and other sci-fi fi lm and television show memorabilia.
Guests will feel as if they’ve entered the “Fi-nal Frontier” as they step through the doors of his north Corinth home.
A few steps up a narrow staircase, opens the door to many museum-quality science-fi ction exhibits that take up the entire second-fl oor room.
Complete with a full-scale, talking 6-foot tall model of the B-9 “Lost in Space” robot, an over-5-foot replica of the USS Starship Enterprise from “Star Trek,” autographed photos, posters, collect-ible toys and action fi g-ures, the 55-year-old has turned an intriguing hobby into a remarkable treasury.
“I’ve worked on it on and off for the past seven years and am not quite there yet,” said Bouchil-lon, as he surveyed the progress of his whimsical getaway, complete with a media area where he can watch old movies and TV shows. “I don’t know if it will ever be fi nished real-ly, but maybe some day.”
Nestled in glass display cases, featured items in-clude a rubber gun cast-ing, ’60s hero-props, a fancy spaceship control panel and an area paint-ed to look like a recruit-ing booth. Extra lighting highlights the exhibits.
“Star Trek” is well represented with auto-graphed photos of the crew and replica hand held gadgets used in the fi lms.
A John Masefi eld quote stenciled on the wall above the Enterprise reads, “All I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by.”
“Lost in Space” has two full cabinets and includes everything from publica-tions, autographed pho-tos and toys to items used in fi lming the 1960s TV show.
The “Star Wars” area features a model of the X-wing Starfi ghter, which actually lights up, and a souvenir program from the fi rst movie, which came out in 1977.
There are areas dedi-cated to “2001: A Space Odyssey,” “UFO,” “Star-ship Troopers” and other fi lms, plus a cabinet dedi-cated to all things sci-fi from movies in the 1950s.
Acquired through eBay and other online markets, the avid collector said he discovered items he never even knew existed.
A Crossroads area resi-dent for over 20 years, the 1977 Caldwell High School (in Columbus) graduate’s love of science fi ction began at an early age.
“It all started when I fi rst watched the ‘Lost in Space’ pilot when I was in the fi rst grade back in 1965,” he recalled. “I saw ‘Star Wars’ eight times when it fi rst came out the summer I graduated from high school (1977), but I began collecting items after seeing the original ‘Star Trek’ in high school.”
“I attended a conven-tion once and had the op-portunity to meet (‘Star Trek’s Capt. Kirk) Wil-liam Shatner.
“I had practiced before-hand what I was going to say, but froze up when it was fi nally my turn,” he added. “They rush you along so fast that it’s kind of a blur.”
The Pontotoc-born col-lector deemed the “Lost in Space” robot and “Star Trek” Enterprise as being his favorite two items.
“I am really proud of
the Enterprise,” he said.A purist at heart, the
sci-fi fan said he doesn’t approve of digitally re-mastered scenes.
“I shouldn’t have asked for more,” he revealed. “Just learned to embrace the original.”
A member of the U.S. Air Force for four years, Bouchillion currently serves as a window clerk at the Corinth Post Offi ce.
The sci-fi enthusiast credits all of his co-work-ers at the post offi ce for his successful upstairs
“man cave” because it took many strong backs and arms to carry all the heavy cabinet displays up the steps.
“Had they not pitched in, the project would never have happened,” he said.

No sci-fi collection is complete without something from “Star Wars,” and Mike Bouchillon’s collection doesn’t disappoint. It includes replica items used in film-ing, movie posters and models of both characters and spaceships.

Anniversary
Wroten golden anniversaryThe children of Arthur and Shirlene Wroten wish to invite friends and family to a 50th wedding anniver-sary celebration on Sunday, April 12, from 2-4 p.m. at Foote Street Church of Christ. No gifts, please.
LOS ANGELES — As promised, the Termina-tor and the man who originated the steely ma-chine — Arnold Schwar-zenegger — are back this summer for another go in “Terminator: Genisys,” and Paramount Pictures, eager for a blockbuster, has already fi red up a machine of its own — the publicity kind.
With four fi lms, over $1 billion in box offi ce receipts, and a jumbled time-travel mythology, “Terminator: Genisys”
is taking the elements of James Cameron’s 1984 original and twisting them a bit to create an entirely new timeline.
Getting a jump on a summer that’s chock full of franchise fare, includ-ing continuations of “The Avengers” and “Juras-sic Park,” Paramount has undertaken an early publicity campaign, in-cluding the recent show-casing of a few minutes of action-packed footage from “Terminator: Geni-sys.”
Then, Schwarzenegger and other key cast mem-bers attended a press event earlier this week on the Paramount lot — all to help generate early buzz for what the studio hopes will be a bona fi de blockbuster.
Paramount is on a major push to restore its once robust produc-tion prowess. Although its franchises, includ-ing “Transformers” and “Mission: Impossible,” have been successful, the studio has lagged behind its Hollywood counter-parts in recent years.
Seated on a massive couch next to his three new co-stars, Schwar-zenegger seemed glad to be back.
“I watched all the mov-ies again to really get up to speed with the charac-ter,” he said.
The fi lm opens in a fa-miliar spot — 2029, when the war against the all-
powerful artifi cial intel-ligence system Skynet is raging. Resistance leader John Connor (Jason Clarke) once again sends soldier Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) back to 1984 to save his mother, Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke), from being killed by a Terminator.
But this time, things are different. Sarah has her own protector: An aged Terminator who has raised her since childhood.
“We’re really harking back to James Camer-on’s original characters that were in one and two and we’re taking it from there,” said Emilia Clarke.
The footage — basi-cally a trailer on steroids — takes what fans have already seen in the fi rst trailer, which debuted in December, and gives ev-erything a bit more con-text, like what happens when Kyle pops up in 1984 and why that school bus starts cartwheel-ing on the Golden Gate Bridge, in addition to one massive secret.
The project on the whole is an intensely hush-hush endeavor, but director Alan Tay-lor (“Thor: The Dark World”) has said many times that, at its heart, the fi lm is about man’s relationship to tech-nology in the modern age. In 2015, that idea has evolved from when
James Cameron fi rst in-troduced us to the T-800 31 years ago.
“In ’84, this was total science fi ction — when machines take over. And now, we’re there,” said Schwarzenegger. “That’s the wild thing about it. When we did this mov-ie, it was kind of almost reality, unlike in 1984 where we thought, ‘Oh well wouldn’t this be a funny world.’ Things have changed.”
Jason Clarke jumped in to agree.
“Good science fi ction is relatable. It mirrors what we’re going through and Cameron set up wonder-ful, iconic metaphors and characters for us to play with,” he said. “Judg-ment Day still exists. It just might not be nucle-ar.”
While there are many Terminator die-hards out there waiting, as Courtney says, “to criti-cize this thing,” when it fi nally hits theaters on July 1, he believes they’ll be pleasantly surprised.
“The beauty of what we’ve done is not only stayed loyal to the origi-nal source material but opened it up to a whole new generation,” said Courtney. “I think we’ll succeed in bringing them in.”
Paramount and fran-chise partner Skydance Productions plan two more “Terminator” fi lms in the next few years.
Associated PressLOS ANGELES — Craig
T. Nelson is getting back in the coaching game for NBC.
The network said that it has ordered 13 epi-sodes of a sequel to the 1989-97 ABC sitcom “Coach” that starred Nel-son as Hayden Fox, the head coach of a college football team.
In the new series, nearly 20 years have passed and Fox has re-tired from coaching, NBC said Thursday. That’s un-til he’s called in to serve as assistant coach to his grown son, the new head
coach at an Ivy League school in Pennsylvania.
Barry Kemp, who cre-ated the previous series, will write and serve as executive producer. De-tails on other casting for the sequel or an air date weren’t announced.
Nelson hasn’t been away from TV. He co-starred in “Parenthood,” which just wrapped a six-year run on NBC.
NBC adds Craig T. Nelsonto ‘Coach’ revival roster
The series originally aired on ABC from 1989-1997.
NEW YORK — Produc-ers of the popular British period drama “Downton Abbey” on Thursday con-fi rmed it will end after its sixth season, scheduled to air in the United States in early 2016. The series, which airs earlier in the U.K., will have its fi nale on Christmas Day 2015.
“Our feeling is that it’s good to quit while you’re ahead,” executive producer Gareth Neame said. “We feel the show is in incredibly strong shape, the scripts that we’re working on for the upcoming season are fantastic and the show is so popular globally. But the danger with this sort of thing is to let it go on forever.”
He said the decision to wrap was made by him and Julian Fellowes, who created the series and has written every epi-sode, in conjunction with the cast. He said there
are no plans in place for a rumored “Downton Ab-bey” feature fi lm or a se-ries spinoff.
The acclaimed, beloved and awards-showered drama has tracked the fates of the aristocratic Crawley clan and its ser-vants amid the social upheavals of pre-World War I Britain into the 1920s, as the characters of upper and lower class-es cope with their rapidly changing world.
Stars include Hugh Bonneville, Jim Carter, Michelle Dockery, Eliza-beth McGovern and Maggie Smith.
The series premiered in the U.K. in 2010 and on PBS’ “Masterpiece” anthology in early 2011, inspired in part by the 2001 Robert Altman fi lm “Gosford Park” (written by Fellowes) and pre-sented as a variation on the British classic “Up-stairs, Downstairs.”
“When we set out to do this in the fi rst place,”
Neame said, “we thought we would have a good success in the U.K. and that very traditional out-lets for British content globally would be there.”
But almost instantly “Downton Abbey” took on a life of its own.
“We did not know we would be in 250 territo-ries worldwide,” Neame said. “We didn’t know we would be one of the big-gest shows on American television.”
In the U.K., it became the highest-rated drama of the past decade, with an average of 11 million viewers over its fi ve sea-sons. Season 5, which concluded in the U.S. this month, drew an average audience of 12.9 million viewers.
“Masterpiece” execu-tive producer Rebecca Eaton called the series “a gift from the television gods.”
She said it coincided with the 2009 rebrand-ing of “Masterpiece,”
which, among many changes, led to dropping “Theatre” from its title.
“And along came ‘Sherlock’ and ‘Downton’ in the same season and transformed us in many ways: drawing a giant audience, a new audi-ence; helping pull in an underwriter; solidify our position with stations and donors to the sta-tion,” Eaton said. “Then we created the Master-piece Trust. So, a com-plete game-changer.”
“Downton” also bene-fi ted from the shift in how TV is consumed, includ-ing binge viewing, and the growth of social media, which turned watching telecasts into group expe-riences, she said.
The decision to call it quits was reached through a process of conversations. But hav-ing now made the deci-sion offi cial, Neame said, meant “a very emotional day for all of the people involved in the show.”
