A proposal is outlined to the Corinth Board of Aldermen for a proposed annexation of the city that would add 8 to 10 square miles to the city limits.
Campaigning for north Mis-sissippi’s special congressional election is in the fi nal stretch as voters head to the polls on Tuesday.
On Saturday, the county elec-tion commissioners spent the morning packing up election materials for the 17 precincts, and the Circuit Clerk’s Offi ce opened for the last day of in-person absentee voting.
“We’ve had a few absentees today, but it’s been slow,” said Circuit Clerk Joe Caldwell.
A barrage of television ad-vertising for the race to replace the late Alan Nunnelee in the U.S. House of Representatives
seemed to do little to nudge voter interest. The pace of ab-sentees has remained a trickle since day one, with votes total-ing around 160 by Saturday.
Voters may be overwhelmed by the number of candidates.
“The biggest thing I hear people say is they don’t know who they want to vote for,” said Caldwell.

The parking lot of the Cross-roads Arena will soon be the scene of twisted metal and car-nage as a local group hopes to bring more awareness for the need of motorcycle safety.
B.A.G.G.E.R.S (Biker Aware-ness Group Giving Every Road Safety) will provide onlook-ers a fi rst-hand glimpse of the tragedy resulting from negli-gent drivers during their “Can You See Me Now” Motorcycle Awareness Day at 2 p.m. on
Sunday, May 17.The staged accident will be
a car verses motorcycle, both driven by college age students.
“We will have one fatality as a result of the accident,” said B.A.G.G.E.R.S. President Brad Lambert. “It will be a live,
working simulation involving all emergency agencies as well as guest speakers.”
Participating agencies and individuals will include Alcorn County Emergency Services

A neighbor of Crossroads Re-gional Park would like to see better behavior by park visi-tors and safer driving by South Parkway motorists.
Ruby Hatley, who lives across from the park, recently brought a number of concerns to the at-tention of the Board of Mayor and Aldermen.
“I see a lot that goes on that no one else sees,” she said, “and I hear a lot that goes on that no one else hears.”
Among the things Hatley said she sees is obscene gestures and people with pants “being worn below the underwear line.” Par-ents also drop off children and leave them there unattended, she said.

Celebrating their rich history while honoring local heroes, the Town of Glen will host their 14th Annual Glen Heritage Festival at the Glen Town Hall from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 16.
“We are excited about it,” said Deputy Chief John Beavers of the Glen Volunteer Fire Depart-ment. “It is something we look forward to every year and is usually well attended.”
Last year’s festival boasted an attendance of somewhere between 300 to 400 people.
Saturday’s highlights will include restored clas-sic tractors and other antique farm equipment from the Tri-State An-tique Tractor and Fly-wheel Club, infl atables bouncers for children and a membership drive by the Air Evac Life-team.
The fi re department will be grilling up ham-burgers and hot-dogs which will be available for a small donation. Soda and other drinks will also be available.
Attendees are encour-aged to bring lawn chairs, blankets and small tents to enjoy a fun afternoon in the sun.
“The main draw will be our political candidate speaking,” said Beavers. “Thus far, over 40 reg-istered candidates have pledged to attend.”
Those who wish to be added to the ballot should contact the Glen Volun-
teer Department at 662-287-2040 or Glen F.D. Captain and Secretary Treasurer Chuck Clement at 662-284-5900.
“We ask that each can-didate who registers give a donation,” said Clem-ent. “It is fi rst come, fi rst serve. Candidates will speak in the order they register.”
“It’s a great opportu-nity for them to warm up before the big political speaking at the Jacinto Fourth of July Festival,” he added.
Each speaker will have fi ve minutes to present their platforms to poten-tial supporters.
“We invite the candi-dates to set up tents and tables to display their lit-erature,” said the captain. “The festival will take place rain or shine.”
In the event of inclem-ent weather, the festivi-ties will be moved into the truck bay.
(For more information about the festival, contact the Glen Volunteer Fire Department or the Glen Town Hall at 662-286-8288.)

HARDIN COUNTY, Tenn. — A motorcycle driver was injured in an accident Saturday afternoon on Kendrick Road about a mile north of the Missis-sippi state line.
Hardin County Fire Chief Melvin Martin said the injured male driver had a fractured leg and was airlifted from the scene to Northeast Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo. The accident happened at 12:52 p.m. Saturday on Kendrick Road at the in-tersection of Gin Road.
Martin could not identify the accident victim and said the Tennessee Highway Patrol is in charge of the investigation. It wasn’s clear Saturday after-noon whether the motorcycle collided with another vehicle, said the fi re chief.

Associated PressFLINT, Mich. — A lawyer wants to enter his
pet pig into the Flint mayoral race after a mix-up threatened to keep candidates’ names off the pri-mary election ballot.
Michael Ewing started the “Giggles the Pig for Flint Mayor” effort after learning that the August primary could be skipped unless a judge intervenes and all candidates would have to fi le as write-ins for the November general election, The Flint Journal reported.
Giggles’ candidacy seeks to draw more attention to the mayoral race, better educate voters about their choices and encourage residents to demand more of elected offi cials, Ewing said.
He plans to take his pig to the streets to let people meet Giggles.

History
Today is Sunday, May 10, the 130th day of 2015. There are 235 days left in the year. This is Mother’s Day.
Today’s Highlightin History:
On May 10, 1865, Confederate President Jefferson Davis was cap-tured by Union forces in Irwinville, Georgia.
On this date:
In 1775, Ethan Allen and his Green Mountain Boys, along with Col. Benedict Arnold, cap-tured the British-held fortress at Ticonderoga, New York.
In 1863, during the Civil War, Confederate Lt. Gen. Thomas “Stone-wall” Jackson died of pneumonia, a complica-tion resulting from being hit by friendly fire eight days earlier during the Battle of Chancellorsville in Virginia.
In 1869, a golden spike was driven in Prom-ontory, Utah, marking the completion of the first transcontinental railroad in the United States.
In 1933, the Nazis staged massive public book burnings in Ger-many.
In 1940, during World War II, German forces began invading the Neth-erlands, Luxembourg, Belgium and France. The same day, British Prime Minister Neville Cham-berlain resigned, and Winston Churchill formed a new government.
In 1960, the nuclear-powered submarine USS Triton completed its sub-merged navigation of the globe.
In 1984, the Interna-tional Court of Justice said the United States should halt any actions to blockade Nicaragua’s ports (the U.S. had al-ready said it would not recognize World Court jurisdiction on this is-sue).
In 1994, Nelson Man-dela took the oath of office in Pretoria to be-come South Africa’s first black president.
Quentin Whitwell, candidate for the upcoming May 12 special election for U.S. Congress, made a campaign stop in Corinth last week.
The Southaven native kicked off Thursday at the Alcorn County Court-house where local offi cials provided a tour of the historic building. Whitwell then had breakfast at Borroum’s Drug Store before participating in the Na-tional Day of Prayer service in the town square.
He ended his day in the Crossroads with a meet and greet event at smith. Restaurant.
“Corinth, and Alcorn County as a whole, will play a very important role in this election,” said Whitwell. “We have
been here quite a bit during the cam-paign and I always look forward to our time here.”
A graduate of Ole Miss School of Law, Whitwell is co-owner of Life Bi-ble Study, LLC, a Christian publishing company, and is Chief Operating Offi -cer of Alliance Healthcare Systems, Inc. He lives in Oxford with his wife, Ginger, daughter, Davis and son, Gordon.
“The people of Alcorn County recog-nize that as a small businessman and problem solver, not a career politician, I will take our shared North Missis-sippi values to Washington to move our country forward,” he added. “Our mes-sage of bringing America back to its fi n-est moment continues to resonate with people across North Mississippi.”
Whitnell brings campaign to CorinthSpecial to the Daily Corinthian
Quentin Whitwell, candidate for U.S. Congress, held a meet-and-greet at smith. Restaurant in down-town Corinth last week.
Webster County native Henry Ross is a candidate for U.S. Congress in the special election set for May 12.
Ross is a lawyer and business owner in Eupora, who has also served in the U.S. Department of Justice in Wash-ington D.C., as an active duty Navy JAG offi cer. He retired after 21 years in the Reserves at the rank of Com-mander.
He has also served as an assistant District Attorney, a circuit judge and as mayor of Eupora.
“I will fi ght to restore America to lim-ited, Constitutional government, low-ering taxes and returning power back
to the states. I will work to defund and repeal Obama Care, protect gun rights, preserve religious freedom, protect the unborn and stop out-of-control Federal Courts,” said Ross. “I will also fi ght to maintain a strong national defense, se-cure our borders, protect us from radi-cal Islam and ensure we are always a friend to Israel.”
Ross has been married to his wife, Anne, for 33 years. They have three children.
“Restoring Biblical values and per-sonal responsibility is very important to me. I want to preserve traditional mar-riage, reform entitlements and honor God as a nation.”
Europa business owner seeks congressional seatFor the Daily Corinthian
Henry and Anne Ross are small business owners in Eupora.
Mississippi State Sen. Nancy Collins (R-Tupe-lo) hopes to again follow the public service path of the late Alan Nunnelee.
Since 2011, she has held the District 6 state Senate seat formerly held by Nunnelee, and now she aims to follow him in the U.S. House of Repre-sentatives.
The founding president of Sanctuary Hospice House, Collins believes her resumé gives her an edge over the large fi eld running for the House seat in the First Congres-sional District.
“I believe I’m uniquely qualifi ed because I’m the only candidate that has legislative experience,”
Collins said while visiting Corinth on Friday. “I can, on day one, start in a way different from others. I’ve been chairman of two committees, PEER and Accountability, Ef-fi ciency and Transparen-cy, and I’m vice chairman of Education. I’ve had to stand up to folks in Jack-son, and I’m willing to do that in Washington.”
A registered nurse and speech therapist, she also points to her experience founding the hospice.
“I had to actively work to get a national demon-stration project for Sanc-tuary Hospice to open its doors,” said Collins. “We were the fi rst stand-alone rural in-patient only hos-pice house in the nation.”
Collins also notes her
experience working with national groups on edu-cation matters and meet-ing Israeli Prime Minis-ter Benjamin Netanyahu regarding the Iran di-vestment bill, which she sponsored in the state Senate.
She said her biggest is-sues of concern are the national debt and pro-tecting Social Security and Medicare.
“I do believe I’m quali-fi ed to at least begin to build consensus about our balancing the bud-get because we balance the budget in Missis-sippi, and we are initi-ating something called performance-based bud-geting,” said Collins. “It’s looking at departments, asking them what pro-
grams are working and what programs aren’t working. The programs that aren’t working, there’s no point in hav-ing them. I think that’s a good thing to implement nationally.”
Among her legislative accomplishments, she points to the bill mov-ing school and district ratings to a letter-grade scale and a bill placing a moratorium on the pur-chase of state-owned ve-hicles and mandating a reduction in the number of state vehicles.
In 2008, her advocacy efforts earned her the Jefferson Award for Pub-lic Service, the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Award for Public Service and the Governor’s Award for
Volunteer Service.She is past chairman
of North Mississippi In-teract and a past board member of SAV-A-Life, the Boys and Girls Club, the Tupelo Christian Women’s Club, Habitat for Humanity and the Family Resource Cen-ter. She has in the past worked with Oasis Medi-cal Center in Corinth.
Collins hopes to follow path of NunneleeBY JEBB JOHNSTON

cal candidate in the race is also a factor. Turnout on Tuesday will do well to reach 5,000, he predicts.
Some reminders for this elec-tion: Voter I.D. is required; North Corinth voters still go to the SportsPlex for this election and the likely runoff on June 2; and political party affi liation does not appear on the ballot.
In a change from the normal routine, Tuesday night’s vote tabulation will move upstairs to the courtroom. With the big county election coming up, it has been decided that the larger space of the courtroom may work better, and this special
election will serve as a test run.Following are the candidates
as they will appear on the bal-lot:
■ Boyce Adams■ Sam Adcock■ Nancy Adams Collins■ Edward Troy Holliday■ Starner Jones■ Trent Kelly■ Michael P. “Chip” Mills Jr.■ Greg Pirkle■ Henry Ross■ Daniel Sparks■ Mike Tagert■ Quentin Whitwell■ Walter Howard Zinn Jr.Zinn is the lone Democrat,
with the rest identifying as Re-publican.
Polling time is 7 a.m. to 7 p.m.

“They are going to treat it as if it were a real accident scene and it will certainly look like one,” said Lambert. “Those injured will be placed on a stretcher and placed in an am-bulance while the deceased will be zipped up in a body bag, placed in the coroner’s vehicle and carried away.”
Complete with fake blood and lacerations, the accident
will serve as a reminder that cyclists are on the road and should be given space to share the road.
“Often times when there is an accident involving a motor-cycle, the rider doesn’t make it. My wife Lisa and I have a friend right now who is in the hospital as a result of a motor-cycle accident with a car,” said Lambert, who is an avid rider and bike enthusiast. “We want to encourage people, especial-ly new teenage drivers, to open their eyes and know bikers are out there.”
“By just being aware of your surroundings, you could very well prevent a devastating ac-cident, and most importantly,
save lives,” he added.Launched in 2013,
B.A.G.G.E.R.S was formed by local riders working in the community to raise motorcy-cle awareness.
Their message to others -- keep an eye out for bikers and save their loved ones from the call no one should ever receive — news their family member has been killed in an accident.

Our View
Interest seems to be low, but the end result is something very important for all of North-east Mississippi.
We speak of Tuesday’s special congressio-nal election.
Alcorn County Circuit Court Clerk Joe Caldwell predicts the county would do well to get 5,000 voters to the polls. As of Saturday, just 160 absentee votes had been cast.
We all tend to complain about what is go-ing on in Washington, D.C., but when we have a chance to send somebody there with our same views, we don’t step to the plate.
A barrage of television advertising and mail circulars for the race to replace the late Alan Nunnelee in the U.S. House of Repre-sentatives seemed to do little to nudge voter interest this past week.
Caldwell thinks voters may be over-whelmed by the number of candidates, as there are 13 choices. None of the candidates are from Alcorn County, which may also play a factor in lack of local interest.
But the reality of the situation is we the people have a choice to make. Nobody else across our great country has this unique op-portunity to send a new face to congress.
We have a wide variety in which to choose. Three are from Tupelo, two are from Ponto-toc, two are from Oxford and two are from Columbus. Other places a candidate calls home include Saltillo, Fulton, Eupora and Starkville.
Five candidates call themselves an attor-ney, while a pair identify themselves as busi-nessmen. Another is both. Also on the ballot are a state senator, dentist, physician, district attorney and transportation commissioner.
Many are making bold statements in their advertising — “reduce spending,” “cut taxes,” “repeal ObamaCare,” “cut national debt,” “energy independence,” “protect the 2nd Amendment,” “eliminate burdensome regu-lations,” “no amnesty for illegal aliens,” and “enact term limits.”
Whoever wins will have a lot of work to do.Following are the candidates as they will
appear on the ballot:■ Boyce Adams■ Sam Adcock■ Nancy Adams Collins■ Edward Troy Holliday■ Starner Jones■ Trent Kelly■ Michael P. “Chip” Mills Jr.■ Greg Pirkle■ Henry Ross■ Daniel Sparks■ Mike Tagert■ Quentin Whitwell■ Walter Howard Zinn Jr.Zinn is the lone Democrat, with the rest
identifying as Republican.Most likely, two from this list will go to a
runoff election on June 2.Polls are open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tues-
day.Hope to see you there. And don’t forget
your voter I.D.

Prayer for today
A verse to share
Terrorists assaulted a “Muhammad cartoon” event in Texas sponsored by activist Pamela Geller, and the response has been, in part, soul-searching over what’s wrong with Pamela Geller.
Geller is an attention-hungry provocateur who will never be mistaken for Bernard Lewis, the vener-able scholar of Islam. Her Texas gathering to award a cash prize for the best car-toon of Muhammad – de-pictions of whom are con-sidered offensive by many Muslims – was deliberately offensive, but so what?
Two armed Muslim men showed up intending to kill the participants, and were only thwarted when they were shot dead by a police offi cer who was part of the elaborate security arrange-ments.
Absent the security, we might have had a Charlie Hebdo-style massacre on these shores, in Garland, Texas, no less, a suburb of Dallas. (The world would be a safer and better place if the forces of civilization everywhere were as well-prepared and well-armed as they are in Texas.)
That horrifying prospect
didn’t stop CNN from interrogat-ing Geller the morning after the at-tack about her views of Islam and her decision to have as the keynote speaker for
her event the anti-Islam Dutch politician Geert Wilders (who has to live under 24-hour protection). The implicit assumption was that Geller and her cohorts were as much of a problem as the fanatics who planned to censor them at the barrel of a gun.
Geller refers to her meet-ing as a free-speech event while her critics prefer to call it an anti-Islam event. They are really one and the same. In today’s circum-stances, criticism of Islam is at the vanguard of the fi ght for free speech, since it is susceptible to attack and in-timidation by jihadists and calls for self-censorship by the politically correct.
“Yes, but ...” defenses of Geller don’t cut it. She had a perfect right to do what she did, and it’s a condem-
nation of her enemies – and confi rmation of her basic point about radical Islam – that the act of drawing and talking elicited a violent re-sponse.
If cartoons of Muham-mad may seem a low, petty form of speech, they are only the fault line in a deep-er clash of civilizations. A swath of the Muslim world doesn’t just want to ban de-pictions of Muhammad, but any speech critical of Islam.
There was much tsk-tsk-ing after the Charlie Hebdo attack about how France had made itself vulnerable to domestic terrorism be-cause it has failed to assimi-late Muslim immigrants. The critique carried a whiff of self-congratulation about how much better the U.S. is as a melting pot, and so it is.
Yet two Phoenix room-mates were still prepared to commit mass murder to keep people from drawing images they don’t like. One of them, an American con-vert to Islam named Elton Simpson, had been convict-ed of lying to the FBI about discussions about travel-ing to Somalia allegedly to engage in terrorism. He evidently took inspiration from ISIS calls to attack the
Garland, Texas, event, in another sign that the poi-sonous ideology of radical Islam knows no borders.
It will ever be thus until all of Islam accepts the prem-ises of free society, as have other major world religions. The day there can be the Muslim equivalent of “The Book of Mormon” without the writers, actors and au-dience members fearing for their lives will be the day that Islam is reformed. Then, and only then, will mockery of Islam by the likes of Pamela Geller and her ilk be a tasteless irrel-evance, rather a statement from atop the ramparts of free speech.
Yes, there is such a thing as self-restraint and consid-eration of the sensibilities of others, but it shouldn’t be the self-restraint of fear. Pamela Geller is a bomb-thrower, but only a meta-phorical, not a literal, one. That’s the difference be-tween her and her enemies – and between civilization and barbarism.
(Daily Corinthian col-umnist Rich Lowry can be reached via e-mail: [email protected].)
Jihadi censorship comes to America
The Obama administra-tion says it is still trying to determine whether ISIS was behind the attack in Gar-land, Texas, in which two terrorists were shot dead after trying to kill people at-tending a “draw the Prophet Muhammad” contest. ISIS is not only claiming respon-sibility, but promising new attacks.
On anonymous message board JustPasteIt, a group that identifi ed itself as ISIS posted its intentions: “The attack by the Islamic State in America is only the be-ginning of our efforts to establish a wilayah (govern-ing province) in the heart of our enemy. Our aim was the khanzeer (swine) Pamela Geller and to show her that we don’t care what land she hides in or what sky shields her; we will send all our Li-ons to achieve her slaughter. ... To those who protect her: this will be your only warn-ing of housing this woman and her circus show. Every-one who houses her events, gives her a platform to spill her fi lth are legitimate tar-gets. We have been watch-ing closely who was present at this event and the shooter
of our broth-ers. We knew that the tar-get was pro-tected. Our intention was to show how easy we give our lives for the Sake of Allah.”
That’s pret-ty straightforward. The Is-lamic State “Trojan Horse” is among us, as clear think-ers always knew would hap-pen. Infi ltrating one’s en-emy and undermining him from within is an old and sometimes successful tac-tic. In the post, ISIS claims to have “71 trained soldiers in 15 states,” naming fi ve of them – Virginia, Mary-land, Illinois, California and Michigan. It says, “23 have already signed up for mis-sions.”
We have long since passed the point of no return when it comes mollifying Islamic fanatics. If we are serious about combating this virus, the government is going to have to do some things that may not be palatable to American sensibilities.
First, we must stop think-
ing that the extremists want our way of life – freedom, pluralism and tolerance. They don’t. To the extent too many in our leader-ship continue to embrace this false faith, we only give encouragement to our en-emies that they can win and that this is their moment to bring down the “great Sa-tan.”
Second, those mosques and Islamic schools that teach hate and preach the destruction of America must be closed and never reopened. Some have gone beyond First Amendment protection to practice sedi-tion, which Wikipedia de-fi nes as “overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that is deemed by the legal authority to tend toward insurrection against the es-tablished order. Sedition of-ten includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority.”
Does this not defi ne what ISIS is doing by inciting and recruiting home-grown ter-rorists to commit destruc-tion against America?
Third, we must not allow any more refugees or immi-
grants from countries popu-lated by Islamic extremists.
The FBI says one of the terrorists killed in the shoot-out with security guards in Texas has been on their ra-dar screens for years. Were they forced to wait until he acted before they could ar-rest him? If so, perhaps our laws need updating to al-low law enforcement to take pre-emptive action against people who visit radical Is-lamic websites or engage in other behavior consistent with terrorist behavior.
If the ISIS posting is to be believed (and why shouldn’t it?), we are being set up for possible multiple attacks that will cause death, de-struction and panic in this country, along with dam-aging economic reverbera-tions.
Now would be a good time to hear from our elected offi cials – and the presidential candidates – about what they intend to do to fi ght and win this war, which is quickly moving to American soil.

The terrorists among us
“Remember not the sins of my youth, nor my transgressions: according to thy mercy remember thou me for thy goodness’ sake, O LORD.” — Psalms 25:7
Heavenly Father, I would be thankful for the blessings I am inclined to forget. Give me a heart of gratitude, and forbid that I should hold my friends for material gain or selfi sh ends. May I through the truthfulness of my lips, and the honor of my acts, be a necessary friend. Amen.

Ex-coach sentenced for sex with student
PASCAGOULA — The former coach of the Moss Point High School boys’ basketball team has been sentenced to 25 years in prison for having sex with a stu-dent.
WLOX-TV in Biloxi re-ports that Micoe Cotton was sentenced Friday in Jackson County Circuit Court. He had pleaded guilty in March to one count of exploitation of a child and two counts of sexual battery in a plea agreement with the gov-ernment.
Court records show the sexual abuse oc-curred on the Moss Point High School campus while the student was in ninth grade, and then again when she was in 11th grade. Investigators say Cotton filmed the abuse on his cellphone.
Prosecutors say the victim in the case was 15 at the time of the first sexual encounter with Cotton.
White sentencing slated for May 18
JACKSON — A Jackson man convicted on two counts each of armed robbery and armed car-jacking and one count of receiving stolen property will be sentenced May 18.
Hinds County District Attorney Robert Shuler Smith says in a one month period Kadarius White and others stole thousands of dollars’ worth of items from sev-eral victims, as well as stealing cars at gunpoint.
Smith says several vic-tims were able to identify White as their attacker and testified against him at a his recent trial. Smith says one vic-tim’s stolen phone was tracked to the defen-dant’s home.
White is facing two life sentences for the armed robberies, two 30-year sentences for the armed carjackings, and 10 years for receiving stolen property.
White will be sen-tenced by Circuit Judge Winston Kidd on May 18.
All third-graders pass reading test
JACKSON — Perfor-mance among Missis-sippi schools and school districts varied widely on the state’s third-grade reading test.
All third-graders passed in two districts — Pearl River County and Clay County — and 11 schools statewide. Fewer than half of third-graders passed at one
school in Greenville and two in Holmes County. Overall, 14 of Missis-sippi’s 146 public school districts saw 30 percent or more of third-graders fail, while 19 districts saw 93 percent or more pass.
Results released Fri-day showed that 5,600 students, or 15 percent, failed statewide. Passing statewide were 32,200, or 85 percent. Those who failed get two more chances to pass the 50-question computer-ized test, one this month and one during the sum-mer. Students must reach a basic level of reading skill, not national proficiency standards.
Students who have been learning English for fewer than two years are eligible for exemptions, as are some special edu-cation students and any student who has already failed a grade twice and has had two years of extra help. Those who don’t pass must repeat third grade while receiv-ing intensive tutoring.
Many parents may not get results until next week. State officials said late Friday that heavy online computer traffic overwhelmed Renais-sance Learning, the con-tractor that provides the test, and some school districts couldn’t down-load reports.
Every parent in the Pearl River County dis-trict, though, knows their child passed. Superinten-dent Alan Lumpkin attrib-uted the passing scores of each of his district’s 210 third-graders to an early effort to identify those with weaknesses and tutor them.
Man to stand trial in fatal bar shooting
VICKSBURG — A Louisiana man will stand trial Nov. 30 on charges in a fatal shooting at a Vicksburg nightclub in February.
The Vicksburg Post reports that 22-year-old Kentrell Williams of Tal-lulah, Louisiana, pleaded not guilty during his ar-raignment Friday in War-ren County Circuit Court. Judge M. James Chaney set trial for Nov. 30.
Williams is charged with murder, possession of a firearm by a felon and possession of a sto-len firearm. He is being held on a $2.5 million bond.
If convicted, Williams faces life in prison.
Authorities say 32-year-old Jimmy John-son of Tallulah was fatally shot in the early morning hours of Feb. 8, 2015 outside LD’s Res-taurant and Lounge.
Authorities say John-
son was shot outside the door to the nightclub as police were responding to another call there.
2nd suspect pleads guilty in 2013 killing
BROOKHAVEN — A Brookhaven man has pleaded guilty to charges involving a 2013 fatal shooting in Brookhaven.
The Daily Leader re-ports that Kevin Barome Collins pleaded guilty to one count of man-slaughter and one count of aggravated assault Wednesday in Lincoln County Circuit Court.
Collins was sentenced to 20 years for man-slaughter charge. He was sentenced to 10 years for aggravated as-sault with eight years suspended and two to serve. The sentences will be served consecutively.
David Earl Jones Jr. pleaded guilty Tuesday to manslaughter and conspiracy to commit manslaughter. He will be sentenced May 18.
Prosecutors say Collins and Jones were involved in shootout with Darion K. Reese on Oct. 13, 2013. A fourth person injured.
Reese died from a gun-shot wound to the chest.
High court validates MHSAA challenge
OLIVE BRANCH — The Mississippi Supreme Court has ruled a high school athlete can chal-lenge a decision that barred him from playing football for Olive Branch High School.
The ruling came Thurs-day in a lawsuit filed by the family of Ross Trail. The case now returns to DeSoto County Chancery Court.
The family sued after the Mississippi High School Activities As-sociation found Trail ineligible for the 2013 season because proper residency had not been established in DeSoto County.
Consideration of the case was delayed while MHSAA sought a Su-preme Court decision on whether Trail had standing to challenge its decision.
Trail transferred from Wynne, Arkansas, in Jan-uary of 2013 and lived with his father, former University of Memphis quarterback Rusty Trail, in Olive Branch. Trail’s mother and sister stayed in Wynne.
That, the MHSAA said, was not a bona fide move to the Mississippi school district.
Records show Trail played his junior year at Olive Branch and re-turned to Arkansas to play his senior season.

HBO wins libel case in child labor report
NEW YORK — HBO did not defame a Brit-ish sporting-goods company with a report that showed children stitching the company’s soccer balls, a federal jury in Manhattan has decided.
Friday’s verdict came after a monthlong trial over a 2008 installment of HBO’s “Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel” that dealt with child labor.
Mitre Sports Inter-national said it was libeled when it was the only company identified in the broadcast that showed children stitch-ing soccer balls for a nickel an hour in Jaland-har, India.
“They have no child-hood,” children’s rights advocate Kailash Sa-tyarthi said in the seg-ment. “They have no freedom.”
Mitre attorney Lloyd Constantine told jurors that HBO had delivered a “pack of lies” and “reckless and intention-al falsity” to its viewers by overlooking the fact that Mitre goes to great lengths to prevent child labor in the sporting goods industry.
Feds: Grandmother ran ring of pill mills
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — To neighbors, Syl-via Hofstetter was a wealthy businesswoman and grandmother who threw extravagant pool parties and went all out to decorate her upscale suburban home on Christmas and Hallow-een.
That image was shat-tered when FBI agents raided the health care administrator’s Knox-ville home in March. Federal prosecutors say the 51-year-old Florida native was running the largest illicit drug op-eration in the history of east Tennessee: a string of pill mills that raked in $17.5 million in four years.
Hofstetter didn’t hide her affluence. She often had contractors renovat-ing her 3,400-square-foot home in the wind-ing Falcon Pointe devel-opment of cul-de-sacs, where neighbors smile and wave on their after-noon strolls. Around the holidays, her displays rivaled the massive tangle of lights assem-bled by Clark Griswold in the film “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation,” said Teresa Coleman, who lives a few doors down from Hofstetter’s home.
Nearly half of states expect budget gaps
ATLANTA — With the nation’s economy at its healthiest since the Great Recession, a sur-prising trend is emerg-ing among the states — large budget gaps.
An Associated Press analysis of statehouse finances around the country shows that at least 22 states project shortfalls for the coming fiscal year. The deficits recall recession-era anxi-ety about plunging tax revenue and deep cuts to education, social ser-vices and other govern-ment-funded programs.
“After all, if a state is grappling with a budget deficit now, with the economic expansion ap-proaching its sixth an-niversary, what will be its condition when the next slowdown strikes?” credit analyst Gabriel Petek wrote in a recent report.
The forces at work today are somewhat different than when the recession took hold in 2008. In some states, revenue growth has been stagnant, missing projections and making it difficult to keep pace with expanding popula-tions and rising costs for health care and edu-cation.
North Korean force testing diplomacy
WASHINGTON — North Korea met a U.S. diplomatic overture with a fresh show of force, seemingly testing the Obama administration’s resolve for new nuclear talks.
After three years of diplomatic deadlock, the U.S. appears open to preliminary discus-sions to assess North Korea’s intentions and the prospects of ridding the country of nuclear weapons.
Then came Saturday’s claim that North Korea successfully test-fired a newly developed bal-listic missile from a submarine. Not long af-ter that announcement, South Korean officials said the North fired three anti-ship cruise missiles into the sea off its east coast.
The State Department said launches using bal-listic missile technology are “a clear violation” of U.N. Security Council resolutions. Washington urged North Korea “to refrain from actions that further raise ten-sions in the region and focus instead on taking concrete steps toward fulfilling its international commitments and obli-gations.”
U.S. opens probe of Baltimore police
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department waded anew Friday into fraught big city police-community relations, with new Attorney Gen-eral Loretta Lynch de-claring the subject “one of the most challenging issues of our time.” She announced a wide-rang-ing investigation into Baltimore’s police.
The federal civil rights investigation, which city officials requested following the death last month of a man in police custody, will search for discrimina-tory policing practices and examine allegations that Baltimore officers too often use excessive force and make uncon-stitutional searches and arrests.
The investigation is to build upon the govern-ment’s voluntary and collaborative review of the Baltimore police that began last year. Since then, the death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray and the days of rioting that followed exposed a “serious erosion of pub-lic trust,” Lynch said, and showed that com-munity concerns about the police were more pervasive than initially understood and that a broader investigation was warranted.
FDA didn’t know of listeria in plant
WASHINGTON — Fed-eral health officials said Friday that they were never told of repeated findings of listeria at a Blue Bell Creameries fa-cility before an outbreak linked to the ice cream turned deadly.
Results of a Food and Drug Administration investigation released this week showed the company had found 17 positive samples of listeria on surfaces and floors in its Oklahoma plant dating back to 2013. The FDA said Friday that it “was not aware of these find-ings” before doing its own inspection this year in response to the out-break.
The outbreak — and the FDA’s lack of knowl-edge of the bacteria found in the plant — is a stark illustration of gaps in the nation’s food safety system. Food contamination often isn’t discovered until people get sick or die.
In the outbreak linked to Blue Bell, three people died in a Kan-sas hospital and seven others were sickened in Kansas, Texas, Okla-homa and Arizona.

Deaths
Jonathan Orion MooreFuneral services for Jonathan Ori-
on (J.O.) Moore, 77, are set for 1 p.m. Monday at Magnolia Funeral Home with burial at Henry Cemetery.
Visitation is today from 4 to 8 p.m. and Monday from 12 noon until the service.
Mr. Moore died Thursday, May 7, 2015, after a long struggle with the effects of rheumatoid arthritis. Also known as Jon, he was born in Belden on April 25, 1938, to Virgil Orion and Geneva (Sullivan) Moore. He grew up in Belden, suffering the loss of his fam-ily home to fi re and surviving a tornado, and graduated as the valedictorian of his class at Belden High School. He went on to graduate with a mechanical engineering degree from Mississippi State University and found employment at numerous indus-tries around the South before settling his family in Counce, Tenn., where he worked for the paper mill for almost 25 years.
He was a devoted husband and fa-ther, much preferring time at home with his family over career ambitions or adventurous pursuits. Other than his home in Counce, his favorite place to be was on the beach at Gulf Shores, Ala., where he often took his family for summer vacations. He adored his wife, and together they raised their chil-dren to honor God, to respect others, to work hard, and to be content with simple things. Though he never served his country in the military, Jon was very proud to be an American and held those serving in the armed services in high esteem. He regarded citizenship
as both a privilege and a responsibility, not taking for granted the freedoms he enjoyed. He contributed generously to numerous charities and organizations that shared his values and beliefs.
Survivors include his wife of 53 years, Evelyn (Newcomb) Moore; his sister, Myrtis (Moore) McCord of Bastrop, Texas; three children, Marcus Moore of Dalton, Ga., Curtis Moore of Lewisville, Texas, and Susan (Moore) McGann of Rock Hill, S.C.; and two grandchildren, Allen Moore and Jacob Moore, both students at the University of Georgia.
Memorial contributions may be made to Samaritan’s Purse or the Gide-ons International.

You are surrounded by news, images and videos of what other people are doing with their lives.
It’s a constant barrage. Facebook, You Tube, the inter-net, reality shows, gos-sip shows, magazines, newspapers, and the tabloids all enable you to peer into everyone’s exploits.
You receive real time updates as to where people are going, who they are meeting, who they have as friends, what they are doing, what they are eating,
what they bought, and what they are thinking.Envy and jealousy have al-ways been common emotions. Being concerned about what others are doing is an age-old phenomenon. Technol-ogy has diminished privacy by trans-forming the ability to examine the lives of others into a recreational activity.
It’s only natural to then rate your life against everyone else’s. The measure becomes how you compare to others rather than whether or not you are achieving your own goals. The quality of your existence is now transformed into a contest rather than your own journey.
This tendency starts at a young age. When elementary school students are handed back their corrected tests or homework, the room is abuzz as each student looks to see what grade the other students received. In school and in life, someone else’s success or fail-ure has no bearing on you whatsoever.
You pay so much attention to what other people are doing that you neglect your own life. Feelings of defi ciency, envy, jealousy, frustration, and even sadness often follow your assessment of how much better other people are living.
There are several fl aws to this com-parison. Other people have a tendency to project their lives as being better than they actually are. They show only the good while leaving out all of their
problems. What they display is not necessarily true or accurate. In short, appearances are rarely what they seem.
While you are fi xated on others, your life is passing you by. You are not in competition with anyone. It doesn’t matter what they are doing. There is no need to attempt to impress other people. Even if you do, what have you accomplished? Most of the time, no one cares anyway.
You pay attention to your life by un-derstanding where you are, how you feel, what you want to do, and where you would like to be. You sacrifi ce time and effort you should be spending on your life by devoting too much atten-tion to others.
You don’t need fame, notoriety, or adulation in order to be happy. The proof is the many people who are in the public spotlight and yet are very unhappy. Ironically, many of these in-dividuals long for privacy and openly express the desire to be left alone.
How would you conduct your life if no one were watching? The answer to this question points to what you should be paying attention to right now. The quality of your life or your happiness is not dependent on the perception of other people or the manner in which they lead their lives.
Never be jealous of how someone else is living. You rarely see the prob-lems they have to deal with and most likely wouldn’t want to trade your problems for theirs. There is frequently much more going on behind the scenes than you could ever imagine.
Pay attention to your life.You don’t need approval. It’s not a
competition. Following your own indi-vidual path is what’s important. Pay at-tention to what’s going on today and ev-ery day in your own life. Take whatever action is necessary to stay on your path.

Dare to Live Without Limits
said he is working with the park board on some behavior policies. They will need to be posted on a sign at the park entrance in order to be enforceable by law, he said.
Hatley said motorists drive well above the posted speed limit. Her hus-band Robert also addressed the board, expressing concern about the traffi c situation.
The retiree recently returned to Corinth and said she is simply con-cerned about the citizens.
Other recent board actions included continued hearings on property clean-up.
The board gave 30-day continuances for properties at 1807 Maple Drive,
2111 Walnut Drive and the former Long John Silver location on Highway 72.
The Maple and Walnut residences both have structural issues, and Code Enforcement Offi cer Kim Ratliff is at-tempting to get the owners or their relatives involved in making improve-ments.
The owners of the old restaurant property recently had the grass cut, but the city would like more to be done.
The board also voted to adjudicate a property at 57 Barnstable Road for cleanup by the city.
The board scheduled a public hear-ing for the May 19 meeting on the re-zoning of a lot at the corner of Gaines Road and Jobe Street from R-2 to R-3 residential.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The United Auto Work-ers on Thursday unveiled a proposal for creating a German-style works council at Volkswagen plant in Tennessee that is predicated on the au-tomaker recognizing the union as its exclusive bar-gaining partner.
“It’s a chicken-and-the-egg syndrome,” UAW Secretary-Treasurer Gary Casteel told reporters in a conference call. “There can’t be a works council until the union is recog-nized to collectively bar-gain.”
The UAW’s “Vision Statement for a Collec-tively Bargained Works Council at Volkswagen Chattanooga” is based on an agreement struck with the German automaker before workers narrowly defeated a union vote at the plant last year.
Following that loss, the UAW’s Local 42 has plowed away at signing up workers in its ongo-ing effort to make the plant the fi rst owned by a foreign automaker to be represented by the union in the South — despite vo-cal opposition from anti-union Republicans in the state and region.
The union disclosed in a fi ling with the U.S. Depart-ment of Labor last week that it has 816 members, or about 55 percent of the blue collar workforce.
“The UAW represent a majority of the Hourly Unit, and are thus fully entitled to act as exclusive representatives of that unit at VW Chattanooga,” according to the UAW proposal.
VW management has been under heavy pres-sure from worker repre-sentatives who make up half of the company’s su-pervisory board because the U.S. plant is alone among the company’s worldwide plants without labor representation.
Under the “dual mod-el,” wages are bargained through the union, while the works council handles plant-specifi c matters like working conditions for both hourly and salaried employees.
The union hopes its case for recognition with-out another contentious vote will be bolstered by a leadership shake-up at Volkswagen that has left Berthold Huber, a former president of the UAW’s German counterpart IG Metall, as the interim chairman of the world’s No. 2 automaker. Huber in his earlier roles had publicly supported the UAW’s efforts to gain rec-ognition at the plant.
“He is a good friend of the UAW, no doubt,” Casteel said. “But he also has fi duciary responsi-bility as the chairman of the supervisory board to VW.”
“I don’t expect Ber-thold to do anything just because it’s the UAW,” he said. “I think he’ll do what’s in the best interest of the company in every instance.”
Volkswagen last year announced plans to ex-
pand the Chattanooga plant to build a new SUV aimed at reviving fl agging sales in the U.S., but the new model isn’t expected to hit dealerships until next year.
The decision to build the new SUV followed months of political ten-sion, with Volkswagen’s labor-friendly corporate culture in the political crosshairs of Republicans who fear a UAW foothold among foreign automak-ers would make the re-gion less competitive for future investment.
A rival workers group called the American Council of Employees, ACE, has formed at the plant to oppose the recog-nition of the UAW as the company’s exclusive bar-gaining partner.
Volkswagen plant spokesman Scott Wilson cited an internal labor policy established at the plant that establishes reg-ular meetings with man-agement, but stops short of collective bargaining arrangements.
The UAW has quali-fi ed for the top tier of that policy for represent-ing at least 45 percent of workers, while ACE has reached the bottom tier of at least 15 percent of em-ployees.

DETROIT — Electric car maker Tesla Motors de-livered a quarterly record of 10,045 cars in the fi rst quarter, helping it beat Wall Street’s expectations despite costly investments in new products and facto-ry capacity and the impact of the strong dollar.
Tesla’s net loss widened to $154 million. The loss, of $1.22 per share, com-pared to a loss of 40 cents per share in the January-March period a year ago.
Tesla says unadjusted fi gures do not refl ect its true performance because accounting rules limit how it records revenue for leases. On an adjusted
basis, the company lost $45 million, or 36 cents per share, in the January-March period. That beat Wall Street’s forecast of a 50 cent loss per share, ac-cording to analysts polled by FactSet.
Palo Alto, California-based Tesla said North American and European orders for the Model S sedan were up, but orders in China continued to lag expectations. Tesla said it remains confi dent it will sell 55,000 Model S se-dans and Model X SUVs this year.
The company said it re-mains on track to deliver the Model X SUV by the end of the third quarter. Buyers should be able to start confi guring their ve-hicles online in July, CEO Elon Musk said.
Tesla is currently build-ing prototypes of the Model X, and in the fi rst quarter it invested in an expanded body shop and paint shop for the Model X at its Fremont, Califor-nia, factory. Musk said production volume will likely double in the fourth quarter as Model X ramps up, but he acknowledged that plan is optimistic.
“Sometimes people don’t totally appreciate there are several thou-sand unique parts in a car, and if any one of them is unavailable, for any rea-son, you can not scale production,” he said.
To avoid hiccups, Musk said the company is building a fl eet of “several hundred” test vehicles to make sure any issues are fi xed before the Model X goes on sale. The com-pany learned that lesson in 2012, when customers who bought early versions of the Model S reported issues with door handles and other problems.
“We want to iron every-thing out, make sure it’s good, and then deliver at high volume,” Musk said.
Musk said the company hopes to reveal a proto-type of its next vehicle, the Model 3 sedan, next March. The Model 3 — which will cost around half the $70,000 starting price of a Model S — will likely go on sale at the end of 2017.

Saturday, May 30, editionof the Daily Corinthian.
Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian
DEAR ABBY: My wife and I will be legally divorced within a few weeks.
We have a 1-year-old son. Although we have been sepa-
rated for eight months, she is an awesome mother to our son.
A man could not ask for a better lady to care for his child. We don’t talk about much other than our son.
We are no longer in love, but I can honestly say I love her for who she is -- the mother of my
child.Mother’s Day is here and I
would like her to know how much I appreciate all she has done, is doing and will do for our boy.
Would it be appropriate to send a quick message express-ing this to her?
Or should I leave it alone? -- HOUSTON DADDY
DEAR DADDY: I’m a fi rm believer that if you think some-thing nice, you should share it. You should absolutely express your thoughts.
While the two of you may no longer be in love, I’m sure she would be gratifi ed to know that she has your respect and ap-
preciation. Read on:
DEAR ABBY: For several years after my wife and I mar-ried, we could not have a child.
Then God smiled on us. We adopted a precious boy
and later a girl, and our lives changed forever.
Every year on Mother’s Day, my thoughts turn to my wife, my mother and my wife’s mother. But there is also always that special feeling for the birth mothers of my children. Were it not for their unselfi sh love, I would not be writing this letter.
So, birth mothers, if you won-der what became of the children you presented for adoption, they have grown up, they have been loved and they are happy. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your gift of love to us. You will never be forgotten. -- PROUD ADOPTIVE FATHER
DEAR FATHER: Surrounded by so much love and gratitude, I’m sure your children have de-veloped into successful adults.
DEAR ABBY: Last year was my fi rst Mother’s Day without my mom. Because I was feel-ing down, I bought a bouquet of fl owers, carried it to a nurs-ing home, handed it to a nurse and asked her to give it to a mom who wouldn’t get anything for Mother’s Day. It was bitter-sweet, but it boosted my spirits on what was a sad day. Just wanted to share. -- GWEN’S
SON IN OHIODEAR SON: Thank you for
sharing. I miss my mom, too. Gwen must have been a lovely, caring person to have raised such a thoughtful son.
DEAR ABBY: For Mother’s Day, I want to say how much I love and appreciate my mom. I can never thank her enough for adopting me when I was a sick and abandoned infant. She has been to hell and back with me, but has never condemned my actions. She would just pick me up and point me in the right direction.
It has been 57 years since God sent this angel to save me (with my dad as backup), and she still guides me every day. Her kind smile and words liter-ally saved my life. -- LOVED IN OMAHA
DEAR READERS: Today I’m wishing a happy Mother’s Day to moms everywhere -- birth mothers, adoptive and fos-ter mothers, stepmothers and grandmothers who are raising grandchildren. For what you do, I salute you. LOVE, ABBY

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You like to be treated a certain way, though you have a toler-ance for people who push you outside of your comfort zone, so long as they don’t push you too far. Today’s characters will test the limits.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The thing you are considering a loss may actually be a benefi t. Challenge yourself to look at it differently. Conundrum: Every-thing you lose makes you freer.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If your day were a song, it would be an all too familiar chorus of your discontent. Fight the melo-dy. That tune is tired, and loved ones will thank you for not play-ing it anymore.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The idea will strike you without warning and stay with you for months and years to come. It’s not that it’s worth acting on; it’s just that it will change hundreds of actions you take afterward.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Does
the end really justify the means? No, not if the means feel hor-rible the whole way through. But YES if the means feel diffi cult, but not wrong, bad or horrible.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Artists create. That’s what they do. If you are an artist or if you love an artist, your compassion and support will be much ap-preciated and reciprocated in unexpected ways in the days to come.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Paying in is an essential part of today’s process. You know whose support you can count on: the one you’ve already sup-ported. If you haven’t paid in, don’t expect to get anything out.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). A person you once loved left a hole in your world, a hole you sometimes fall into at night. Your day will be sunshine-fi lled. The night will be for exploring that cavern.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The answer is obvious --
though maybe not to you. That’s just another excellent excuse to have good friends around you. Earth signs understand you: Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). If you have any inclination toward superstition, this is one to pay attention to: When things fall on, tumble at your feet or jump out at you, there is a rea-son. Note the signs. If they don’t make sense in the moment, they will later.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You will live to the level of your self-esteem. You can’t raise it for the fun of it -- there has to be a reason. That’s why the soul-searching is so impor-tant today.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You don’t always need to be the winner. That is your advantage. You don’t fear losing the game or even losing face. The only thing you fear is not living to the fullest. That’s why even if you lose, you win.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Zach Randolph scored 22 points and Marc Gasol added 21 points and 15 rebounds as the Mem-phis Grizzlies beat the Golden State Warriors 99-89 on Sat-urday night to take a 2-1 lead in their Western Conference semifi nal.
Mike Conley and Court-ney Lee both fi nished with 11 points for Memphis, which has won two straight with Conley, their point guard, back in the lineup.
MVP Stephen Curry fi nished with 23 points for Golden State but was 8 of 21 from the fi eld, including 2 of 10 outside the arc. Klay Thompson had 20
points, and Harrison Barnes added 16.
For a second straight game, the Grizzlies made the War-riors look nothing like the team that was the NBA’s best home or away during the regular season. The Warriors missed seven straight 3s during one stretch, several wide-open looks, and the Grizzlies ha-rassed them into a handful of ugly turnovers.
The Warriors went just 6 of 26 from 3-point range and 19 of 28 at the free throw line.
The Grizzlies improved to 7-2 overall in Game 3s since 2011 in their franchise history and 6-1 when playing that game on their home court. With Game 4 at home on Monday night,
the Grizzlies have their sights set on ousting the West’s No. 1 seed for the third time in their fi ve-year playoff run as they try to reach their second confer-ence fi nal in three years.
Memphis outscored Golden State 46-32 in the paint and outrebounded the Warriors 44-39. The Grizzlies forced 17 turnovers they turned in 22 points, offsetting the Warriors’ 22 fast break points.
Golden State trailed by as many as 19 points early in the fourth quarter and tried to rec-reate its big comeback from 20 points down in Game 3 of its opening series at New Orleans. The Warriors got within 88-84 on a fastbreak layup by Barnes with 3:16 left.
Lee hit a 3, then Gasol beat the shot clock with a long jumper changed from a 3 after review. Green turned it over, and the Grizzlies fi nished the win.
The Warriors were up 15-10, a lead that didn’t’ last long as the Grizzlies put together a 25-9 run spanning the fi rst quarter and into the second for a 35-24 lead.
Memphis led 55-39 at half-time, the second straight game the Grizzlies held Golden State below 40 points in the opening 24 minutes. Golden State had been held to 40 points or less only once all season.

Alcorn Central will get fi rst serve, taking on fi ve-time de-fending Class 3A champion
St. Andrew’s for the team ten-nis title.
The Episcopal High School as won at least eight straight titles overall, including the 2007-2009 2A champion-ships. The MHSAA website doesn’t list team champion-ships prior to 2007.
Play in the event cham-pionships are slatted to be-gin Monday and wrap up Wednesday with the title matches.
Alcorn County is represent-ed by 15 athletes in nine en-tries over the seven events in Classes 3A -- Alcorn Central and Kossuth -- and 4A in the form of Corinth.
The locals also enter as their respective division champions in each of the seven events, earning seeds among the top eight spots in the 16-school brackets.
In Class 3A, Alcorn Cen-tral’s Brendan Jobe and Ja-
cob Price are the No. 3 seed in Boys’ Doubles. Kossuth’s Zak Harbin and Taylor Heavener earned a No. 4 spot in Mixed Doubles, while teammate Zach Shawl is a No. 5 seed in Boys’ Singles.
Alcorn Central’s Girls’ Dou-bles tandem of Abbey Hol-lowell and Allie Hughes are a seventh seed.

BY DOUG FERGUSONAP Golf Writer
PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Kevin Na dropped his club and placed his hands on his hips as he watched his tee shot, certain that it was going to come up short of the island. Disappointment gave way to an embarrassed smile when he saw the ball settle 6 feet next to the fl ag.
That one shot summed up a warm and wild afternoon Sat-
urday at The Players Champi-onship.
For most players, nothing was ever as bad as it seemed.
Or as good.Chris Kirk felt his round slip-
ping away when he missed a short birdie putt and followed that with two straight bogeys to fall out of the top 10. Three consecutive birdies later, he was on his way to a 4-under 68 and a one-shot lead going into the fi nal round.
But that’s like having no lead at all. Not with two dozen play-ers — Rory McIlroy, among them — within four shots of the lead.
Na was never too far from the lead, and he was tied when he was on the tee at the par-3 17th and hit slightly behind the ball, took up more of the earth than he intended and thought to himself, “Oh, boy.”
He was waiting for a splash. Instead, he heard a cheer.
And then he gave what was believed to be the fi rst inter-view while going to the island green. He chased down Roger Maltbie of NBC, who said to him, “You gave up on it.”
“No I didn’t,” Na said. “I hit it fat. And then I saw it fl y and thought, ‘You know, this might get there.’”
“Never let them see you sweat, pal,” Maltbie replied.

Associated PressTAMPA, Fla. — Attorneys
for top NFL draft pick Jameis Winston contend a woman seeking civil damages from the quarterback after accus-ing him of rape is trying to tarnish his reputation and tap into the Heisman Trophy winner’s newfound wealth.
The former Florida State star practiced again Saturday, the fi nal day of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ rookie mini-
camp, and was not made available to comment on a counterclaim fi led on his be-half one week after signing a four-year, $23.35 million contract.
“Nothing is surprising us,” Bucs coach Lovie Smith said, when asked if Winston noti-fi ed the team in advance of Friday’s fi ling in federal court in Orlando.
In it, the quarterback’s law-yers alleged that Erica Kins-
man created a “media circus,” then initiated settlement discussions in which her at-torneys demanded $7 million from Winston.
“Ms. Kinsman has been successful in one major area,” the fi ling by attorneys for the 2013 Heisman winner said. “She has mounted a false and vicious media campaign to vilify Mr. Winston with the objective of getting him to pay her to go away. Ms. Kins-
man is motivated by the most insidious objectives — greed.”
Kinsman, a former FSU stu-dent, claims she was drunk at a Tallahassee bar in Decem-ber 2012 when Winston and others took her to an apart-ment, where she says the quarterback raped her. Win-ston has repeatedly denied the allegations and said the two had consensual sex. Pros-

ecutors have declined to charge Winston and FSU cleared him of any wrongdoing in a two-day student conduct hearing.
Kinsman fi led a law-suit two weeks before the April 30 NFL draft, ac-cusing Winston of rape, assault, false imprison-ment and emotional dis-tress.
“This is an interesting choice by Mr. Winston,” Kinsman’s attorney, John Clune, said Satur-day in response to the new fi ling. “The counter-claims put all of his prior misconduct front and center in the case by al-leging injury to his ‘good reputation’ and the bur-den of proof is now on him. Refusing to answer questions isn’t going to work here. I’m not sure how well this will end up for him.”
Despite a string of in-cidents that kept Win-ston in the headlines off the fi eld, including being cited for shoplifting crab
legs from a Tallahassee supermarket, Winston demonstrated an ability to block out distractions and thrive on the fi eld.
The Buccaneers se-lected him No. 1 overall after spending nearly fi ve months vetting the 21-year-old quarterback. Smith reiterated the team doesn’t expect the lawsuits he’s involved in to disrupt preparation for his fi rst pro season.
“No, we do not think it will be a problem for Jameis to be focused on playing football here. Not at all,” Smith said. “We all have things that we are dealing with off the foot-ball fi eld. But guys know when it’s time for football here, and it’s about the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and doing our work.”
Winston’s fi ling repeat-edly refers to Kinsman’s claims as “lies,” saying the encounter between the two was proven by medical evidence and two teammate witnesses to be nothing more than consensual.

There could be plenty of sweating Sunday in a championship that is up for grabs.
“It seems like half the tour has a chance to win this thing,” McIlroy said af-ter a 70 put him four shots behind.
Tiger Woods was part of the other half. He made the wrong kind of history Saturday by making two double bogeys on par 5s for the fi rst time in his ca-reer, leading to a 75 that matched his worst score at the TPC Sawgrass. Woods was 13 shots behind and chose not to share his thoughts on the day.
Na missed the birdie putt
on 17, and then he three-putted for a double bogey on No. 18 for a 72 that dropped him from a tie for the lead to a tie for fi fth.
What made Saturday so unpredictable was neither the Stadium Course nor the variety of shots, rather a leaderboard crammed with so many players that it was hard to keep track who was coming and who was going.
Ben Martin fell out of the lead with a bogey on the 18th for a 68, leaving him one shot behind along with Kevin Kisner (67) and Bill Haas (68). Justin Thomas was tied for the lead, but that was before the lead-ers teed off. The 22-year-old rookie set a Stadium
Course record with 10 bird-ies in his round of 65 and was two behind, along with Sergio Garcia (67), Scott Brown (69), David Heard (70), Jerry Kelly (72) and Na.
Woods at least was in good company.
He was part of an All-Star cast at the bottom of the leaderboard.
The last 10 players have combined for 153 wins on the PGA Tour and 27 ma-jors. The top 10 going into Sunday have combined for 23 tour wins and no ma-jors.
Adding to the dynamic is that three players within two shots of the lead are at The Players for the fi rst time.

Tip InsWarriors: Marreese
Speights strained his right calf in the fourth quarter and did not return. ... Cur-ry, who had six assists in the game, handed out his 200th career assist in the postseason in the second quarter. He became the fi fth player in Golden State history with at least 200 playoff assists. ... Thomp-son has hit a 3-pointer in 15 straight postseason games.

New MaskThe swelling has eased
enough in Conley’s face that he switched to a new mask for a more snug fi t.
He didn’t shoot nearly as well as he did Tuesday night. Offi cials did take a timeout early in the third quarter for Conley to get
some blood wiped away from his left eyebrow be-fore putting the mask back on and returning to the court.

ects were so much fun for the kids to make and be
able to take home with them,” said Coombs.
A whimsical piano sta-tioned on the sidewalk in from of the Corinth Art-ist Guild Gallery was also a big draw with its color sign “I’m yours. Sit down and play me,” inviting guests to tickle the ivo-ries.
Approximately 700 people attended the free event.
“We were thrilled to have such a large turnout and hope to build the en-thusiasm as we we look forward to next year’s event,” said Coombs, who wished to thank everyone for their generous sup-port.
“I would like to extend a special thank you to Anita Temple (chorus), Jen-nifer LeGoff (art), Kelly Treadway (theatre), Bruce Dobbs (band) and Tommy Thompson (fi ne arts di-rector) for all their hard work in getting students excited for this event,” she added. “We had a huge in-volvement by all the arts students. They were hav-ing a ball playing games and performing for the community.”
“Listen to Your Moth-er,” edited by Ann Imig
c.2015, Putnam $25.95 / $28.95 Canada 246 pages
Safe.That’s what you
would’ve been, if you’d just paid attention to your mother. You wouldn’t have caught your death of cold or poked someone’s eye out. You’d never even bother looking for money trees. Accidents would be free of dirty undies, and you’d have nice things.
But nooooo, you didn’t heed Mom’s advice until you had children of your own. And in “Listen to
Your Mother,” a collec-tion of essays edited by Ann Imig, you’ll see what else you missed.
For much of your life, your mother’s told you what to do. As it turns out, she IS the boss of
you and sometimes her advice is right. Other times, says Mary Jo Pehl, her words scare you enough that “she should have a fl ashlight under her face.”
And yet – you’ve prob-ably noticed that Mom is strong as steel. Maybe she “leads you to water and stays till you drink,” as does Tasneem Grace Tewogbola’s mother. And even if, like Lea Grover, you’ve forgotten things, you still know Mom’s “a supernatural entity made of love… and constant presence.”
If you’re the moming one, then you understand how Jenny Fiore needs outings “in order to keep my child happy enough,
occupied enough not to break me.” You can “fi -nally let go of all your crazy hopes and dreams and just live vicariously through your children,” says Wendi Aarons. Like Jennifer Ball, you know that traditions mean ev-erything. Like Stacey Connor, you can do what’s right for your child and hope the condemnation isn’t too harsh. And you can remember, as does Natalie Cheung Hall, “I am a good mom because I have a good mom.”
Mothers, as anyone who’s had one knows, come in all shapes and sizes. Some of them are single, while some fami-lies have two moms. In many cases – like that
of Alexandra Rosas – Grandma takes the role and “all the ugliness of my world disappears,” or an Auntie does the mother-ing. Some moms eagerly anticipate their babies’ birth, others fear for their child’s future before it’s even born, and all moth-ers fi nd it hard to let go.
And sometimes, Mom is actually a Dad…
So, all things consid-ered, you were a pretty good kid – although there were times when, well, let’s just say that “Listen to Your Mother” could help make amends.
Because of long Wis-consin winters spent with two small children, blogger-editor Ann Imig created a stage show “to
make room for the voices of other mothers and men and women…” and from which her book is titled.
Some of these fi fty-some essays will make you laugh, of course. Oth-ers will resonate in your own life. A few will make you wonder if the author somehow knew your mother. Many stories will touch your heart – and at least one will break it in pieces.
If you’re a mother or a mom-to-be, you’ll fi nd comfort and kindred spirits inside this addic-tive, easy-to-read book. If you’re looking for some-thing to give your own Mom, I’d say wrapping up “Listen to Your Mother” is safe.

NEW YORK — Taya Dunn Johnson has been living large online for years, embracing Face-book, Twitter and other social streams to fre-quently share her most mundane and intimate moments.
Her husband — her high school sweetheart and an IT specialist — was an offl ine kind of guy, though he was sur-rounded by post-happy loved ones, colleagues and friends and had no problem with that.
Then he died suddenly of a heart attack at age 37 and his wife found herself entrenched in what just might be the last frontier for privacy, his funeral.
“I held two services and had to ask several people not to take pho-tos of his casket,” said
Johnson, a 38-year-old administrative assistant who lives in Baltimore with her 6-year-old son. “The idea of it disturbed me. Days later, I no-ticed several people had ‘checked-in’ from the fu-neral home on a couple of platforms.”
Actively using so-cial media as she did when tragedy struck in 2012, and as she still does, Johnson under-stands why Facebook exec Sheryl Sandberg asked mourners, tech powerhouses included, to stay off social media from her husband Da-vid Goldberg’s memorial service Tuesday.
“It’s a slippery slope,” Johnson said. “We share everything from our new car to our meal to our new dress. Somehow those things have be-come interchangeable with death.”

Northeast Mississippi Community College stu-dents recently elected three members from the college’s student popula-tion to serve in the chief positions of the school’s Student Government As-sociation (SGA) for the 2015-16 academic year.
In April, Northeast held online campus-wide elec-tions for all potential can-didates who qualifi ed to run for the vacant offi ce positions of president, vice president, and secretary.
Trace Lee of Columbus, Andrew Lambert of Boon-eville and Kelsey English of Alcorn County were elected as president, vice president, and secretary for the college’s student body, respectively.
Lee, a Columbus High School graduate, Lambert, a Booneville High School
graduate and English, a Kossuth High School graduate, replace outgoing offi cers: president Hunter W. Thompson of Boonev-ille, vice president Haleigh Tennison of Booneville and secretary Luke Wad-dell of Booneville.
During the spring se-mester of each year, three sophomore students are elected to serve as presi-dent, vice president, and secretary for the upcom-ing academic year and ease the transition be-tween school years.
Additional council members such as class and dorm representatives are selected during cam-pus-wide elections in the early portion of the follow-ing fall semester.
Three freshmen repre-sentatives, three sopho-more representatives, and
six dormitory representa-tives will be elected during the 2015 fall semester to complete the SGA Council for the 2015-16 academic year.
Upon enrollment at Northeast, each student becomes a member of the Student Govern-ment Association, which is charged with planning activities and programs for the student body and to present helpful sugges-tions to the faculty and ad-ministration.
Northeast’s Student Government Association also acts in an advisory ca-pacity to the college’s stu-dent population.
Students interested in getting involved with stu-dent activities on campus should contact the Offi ce of Student Activities lo-cated in the Haney Union.
Northeast names three new SGA officersDuring recent online campus-wide elections at Northeast Mississip-pi Community College, three sophomores were selected to serve in the top positions of the Stu-dent Government Asso-ciation for the 2015-16 academic year. Alcorn County’s Kelsey English (from left), Columbus’ Trace Lee and Boonev-ille’s Andrew Lambert were elected to lead the student-run organization. Lee gained the organiza-tion’s presidency, while Lambert will serve as the organization’s vice presi-dent and English will be the secretary for the Stu-dent Government Asso-ciation.
Oklahoma State Uni-versity Center for Vet-erinary Health Sciences recently hosted its an-nual awards banquet distributing more than $575,000 to 142 stu-dents. Among the recipi-ents was Audrey Sloan of Corinth.
Sloan received an Ethel Peters Endowed Scholar-ship in recognition of her academic achievement and her interest in small animal veterinary prac-tice.
She also received the Simmons and Associates Educational Trust Fund for her understanding of the business of veteri-nary medicine.
As the recipient of this award, she is eligible to compete for a national
award of $15,000 and a trip to one of two nation-al veterinary conferenc-es. Sloan is the daughter of Neil and Maria Sloan of Corinth.
“At a time when money is tight, it is heartwarm-ing to have such gener-ous donors who continue to support the only vet-erinary medicine degree program in Oklahoma,” says Jean Sander, DVM, MAM, ACPV, dean of OSU’s veterinary center. “The gifts given to these deserving veterinary students by our donors help lessen the fi nancial burden students will face upon graduation. We ap-plaud our donors and the many achievements of these dedicated young men and women.”
Students earning a Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine degree have many career paths to choose from as they enter the work force.
Some will go into pri-vate veterinary practice; others will work in the pharmaceutical indus-try while some join the military to serve in public health roles.
Still others will opt to work in academia shar-ing their knowledge with the next generation of veterinarians while some may work in regulatory positions.
The options are many and thanks to the strength of Oklahoma State’s veterinary pro-gram, OSU DVM gradu-ates are highly sought
after. Graduates usually av-
erage one to two job of-fers per student.

NEW YORK — Hidden in the attention being paid to David Letterman leading to his May 20 re-tirement is the knowledge that it will also mean the end of a regular televi-sion role for America’s bandleader, Paul Shaffer.
The gravel-voiced side-kick, who’s 65, isn’t ready to leave show business even with the gig of a life-time coming to a close af-ter 33 years.
“Of course, I had the old mixed feelings, sad-ness, etcetera,” Shaffer said during an interview in his offi ce behind the Ed Sullivan Theater. “Now I have come around to just being absolutely thankful for such a wonderful run, such a long run, working for a guy who has been nothing but encouraging to me.”
Shaffer is a walking trivia answer of show biz credits: bandleader for the original “Saturday Night Live” troupe, same
role for the Blues Broth-ers, part composer of the 1980s hit “It’s Rain-ing Men” and the “Late Show” theme, cringe-worthy record executive Artie Fufkin in “This is Spinal Tap” and music director for the annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductions. If he hadn’t neglected to return Jerry Seinfeld’s call, you may have known him as George Costanza, too.
He’ll always be linked in public consciousness with Letterman, how-ever, like Ed McMahon and Johnny Carson, or Andy Richter and Conan O’Brien.
Until Shaffer inter-viewed for the bandleader job that began in 1982, he had never met Letterman. Shaffer was asked what he saw for Letterman’s post-midnight “Late Night” on NBC, keeping in mind they could only afford a few musicians.
He envisioned some-thing like the lounge bands he saw at the be-ginning of his career in
Toronto, a lead keyboard player and a couple of other instruments, inter-preting Stax and Motown hits.
Letterman said that sounded great, that he’d always thought of himself as the Wayne Cochran of comedy.
Shaffer cracked up at the reference to an ob-scure 1960s soul singer who looked a little like Jay Leno with an over-sized, platinum blond pompadour.
The time slot after Car-son “sounded like the hippest opportunity, like in Las Vegas when a per-former would do a late late show for the other performers or cab drivers on the strip. That’s how I related to it. It was all perfect for me.”
Starting at a time when his fi ve years at one job, on “Saturday Night Live,” seemed like an eternity, Shaffer said he never felt tempted to leave Letter-man.
He’s had the freedom to do other things while the
“Late Show” let him lead a band — perform in front of an audience, do sketch comedy and match wits with TV’s hottest host.
That’s not to say it was always easy.
“I spent time prepar-ing funny, off-the-wall lines, something Jerry Lewis had said, for ex-ample,” he said. “I was doing quite well with it, I thought. (Letterman) said, ‘I would rather we just have a conversation and try to talk.’ Well, that was daunting to me, but I did. That’s when I be-gan to see what he really needed from me.”
Through the years, Shaffer has become like a security blanket to Let-terman.
As anyone who’s been in his frigid studio knows, he’s a host who likes things Just So.
Shaffer will interject quick remarks — “Insta-gram that right away,” he said after his boss took a selfi e Tuesday night — or lead the band into a snip-pet of “Tequila” for a Top
Ten list about Cinco de Mayo parties.
Sometimes it’s as sim-ple as breaking the si-lence, an “ahh” or slight cackle.
Letterman has a habit of calling a pre-show meeting just when there’s too little time to seriously discuss things. And after his heart bypass surgery a decade ago, Letterman stopped rehearsing regu-larly.
“The show got way more fun at that point, way more spontaneous,” Shaffer said.
The bandleader worked with plenty of heroes; James Brown asked to come on after he heard Shaffer’s band playing some of his music on the show.
This added another, delicate task to his du-ties: it was Shaffer’s job to sometimes tell perform-ers they’d have to cut a portion of their song be-cause of television time constraints.
“I’ve gotten better at what I do over the years,
if I may humbly say,” he said. “When I started I may not have been able to work with artists as well as I do now. If you work with people, you get to understand what they need, when they need it, what you should or shouldn’t say.”
In two weeks’ time the CBS Orchestra, expanded beyond the bare-bones band Shaffer had in the NBC days, disbands. Shaffer has his options; he plays a little jazz and wants to keep in com-edy. Maybe a TV drama will offer a story arc. The biggest adjustment will be the loss of the routine, knowing where he had to be on weekday after-noons.
“This was such a long run, so if I’m meant to get a gig in a piano bar in Palm Springs .... I’m not too worried at this point,” he said. “I feel like I’ve had a lot of fun. How can you keep having all the fun? Eventually, you’ve got to let others have some fun.”
Paul Shaffer ready to disband the CBS OrchestraBY DAVID BAUDER

NEW YORK — Starring on Broadway in “Chicago” has turned into a fountain of youth for Brandy Nor-wood.
“I have more life in me than I’ve ever had in a very long time. I feel 15 again. I feel like a kid,” the Grammy-winner said last week. “We all have a kid in us. My kid is wide awake. Baby Brandy is up and ready to go.”
The singer of hits like “I Wanna Be Down” and “The Boy Is Mine” as well as the star of the ’90s sit-com “Moesha” started an 8-week stint in the sexy musical, which marks her professional stage debut.
Brandy plays Roxie Hart, a wannabe vaude-villian star who murders her lover and is arrested.
It’s showing off the singer’s sensual, naughty side as she dances and sings in some very short outfi ts.
“I’m going to give it everything I’ve got,” she said. “I may not have the prettiest feet, because I’m pigeon-toed natu-rally. I may not have the straightest leg. But I’m going to give this every-thing I have.”
The show, which in-cludes the songs “All That Jazz” and “Cell Block Tango,” is a scathing sat-ire of how show business and the media make ce-lebrities out of criminals.
Others who have played Roxie include Marilu Henner, Lisa Rinna, Bebe Neuwirth, Sandy Duncan and Christie Brinkley. Brandy saw the show when it starred Usher as Billy Flynn, Roxie’s slick lawyer, in 2006.
Members of Brandy’s family were in the audi-ence April 28 when she made her debut. One of those most impressed was her 12-year-old daughter, Sy’rai, who was in tears.
“She said, ‘Mommy, you were phenomenal!’
It was as if she had nev-er seen me in that way,” Brandy said.
Doing Broadway at 36 may be outside Brandy’s comfort zone but that was the hope. She said she realized her life and career in Los Angeles had become stagnant about eight months ago.
“Change needed to hap-pen for my life. I wasn’t in a very good place,” she said. “I didn’t like it that I hadn’t been dreaming in a very long time. And so I changed my mind. I wanted to dream again. I wanted to live again and be vibrant. I wanted to be me.”
Brandy said she was in part inspired by Keke Palmer, who made her professional stage debut in 2014 as the fi rst Afri-can-American Cinder-ella on Broadway. Palmer said at the time that it was Brandy’s turn as Cinder-ella in a 1997 TV movie that helped her decide to take the plunge.
Would you stand by your child if she was slowly dying of a grue-some and highly conta-gious illness? That’s the central question that Arnold Schwarzenegger has to face in “Maggie,” a terminal illness drama where the malady at hand involves morphing into a member of the fl esh-eat-ing undead.
Director Henry Hob-son’s fi lm imagines a world devastated by zom-bies — although no one ever says that word. In-stead of turning to genre conventions, though, “Maggie” stays small, in-timate, and fascinatingly realistic.
Set in a small Midwest-ern town, society is still tenuously functioning amid the breakout. Hos-pitals diagnose the af-fl icted and set terms for mandatory quarantines before the diseased turn truly dangerous. The po-lice, also, are there to en-force. Other institutions, though, are all but aban-doned. Gas stations are empty and electricity is unreliable.
For many, life contin-ues as normally as pos-sible. There are no rogue bands of hostile surviv-alists competing over bunkers and land and no massive zombie armies attacking. “Maggie” is zombie tale that is more interested in the micro-cosm — the effects of the virus on the family unit and the community, not
the shocks and thrills of an all-out war.
If this seems like a sur-prising choice for Schwar-zenegger, it is. Even more surprising? He’s pretty great.
The heart of the movie is the relationship be-tween Wade (Schwar-zenegger) and his teenage daughter Maggie (Abigail Breslin). She’s infected and missing when the fi lm starts, but Wade searches for two weeks to fi nd her and bring her back to the country home that he shares with his new wife (Joely Richardson) and their young children.
There, Wade waits for Maggie to transform, try-ing to spend as much time with her as possible in the interim. Maggie, in turn, fl uctuates between all the emotions of dealing with a life cut too short — and her fatal, itchy and gro-tesque wound.
There are a few jump scares and horror movie elements that help to break up the melodrama. Maggie’s carefully de-signed physical trans-formation is punctuated by frightening visions of what’s to come — even if it’s unclear whether they’re nightmares or symptoms.
Still, everything is re-strained. Schwarzeneg-ger’s Wade only resorts to violence when protecting Maggie, and even those moments seem to be done reluctantly. His despair is evident in his physicality and his eyes throughout.
Many of the scenes take place around the dinner
table — some tense, some funny, but all with the heavy fear of the inevi-table hanging over every moment.
Some of the more af-fecting parts involve Schwarzenegger weighing his options with various friends. The horrifying reality is that death is re-ally the only solution. The “how” is the question.
And yet, for as fascinat-ing as the conceit is (and as lean as the movie is), the deep emotions at play don’t really hit as well as they should. Part of the problem is the distracting look of the fi lm. “Maggie” appears as though it was shot through a variety of Instagram fi lters — a dusty grey for the exte-riors, and a warm, over-saturated orange for the interiors. Also, even at a brisk 95 minutes, the run-time feels like a stretch.
Maybe Hobson — a title designer in his feature debut — wasn’t going for tearjerker, though.
“Maggie,” ultimately, is a fascinating experiment in genre that has captured a side of Schwarzenegger that the movies have not seen before — an impres-sive, exciting and worthy accomplishment in and of itself.
“Maggie,” a Lionsgate and Roadside Attractions release, is rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture As-sociation of America for “disturbing thematic ma-terial including bloody images, and some lan-guage.” Running time: 95 minutes. Two stars out of four.
