Today inHistory

Today is Sunday, June 12, the 164th day of 2016. There are 202 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History:

On June 12, 1776, Virginia’s colonial legisla-ture adopted a Declara-tion of Rights.

On this date:

In 1920, the Republi-can national convention, meeting in Chicago, nominated Warren G. Harding for president on the tenth ballot; Calvin Coolidge was nominated for vice president.

In 1924, President Calvin Coolidge was nominated for a term of office in his own right at the Republican national convention in Cleveland. (Coolidge had become president in 1923 upon the sudden death of War-ren G. Harding.)

In 1939, the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum was dedi-cated in Cooperstown, New York.

In 1942, Anne Frank, a German-born Jewish girl living in Amsterdam, received a diary for her 13th birthday, less than a month before she and her family went into hid-ing from the Nazis.

In 1963, civil rights leader Medgar Evers, 37, was shot and killed outside his home in Jackson, Mississippi. (In 1994, Byron De La Beck-with was convicted of murdering Evers and sen-tenced to life in prison; he died in 2001.)

In 1965, the British government announced that The Beatles would each be made an MBE (Member of the Order of the British Empire) by Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace later in the year.

In 1967, the Supreme Court, in Loving v. Vir-ginia, struck down state laws prohibiting interra-cial marriages.

In 1975, an Indian court found Prime Minis-ter Indira Gandhi guilty of electoral corruption and barred her from holding office for six years; Gan-dhi rejected calls for her to resign.

In 1987, President Ronald Reagan, during a visit to the divided German city of Berlin, publicly challenged So-viet leader Mikhail S. Gorbachev to “tear down this wall.”

In 1991, Russians went to the polls to elect Boris N. Yeltsin president of their republic.

In 1994, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were slashed to death outside her Los Angeles home. (O.J. Simpson was later ac-quitted of the killings in a criminal trial, but was eventually held liable in a civil action.)

Tupelo

TCT sets auditions for season opening

TUPELO — Auditions for Tupelo Community Theatre’s season open-ing production of Peter and the Starcatcher by Rick Elice with music by Wayne Barker will be Monday, June 20 and Tuesday, June 21 at 6:30 p.m. on the stage of the Lyric Theatre.

The Tony-winning production upends the century-old story of how a miserable orphan comes to be The Boy Who Would Not Grow Up (a.k.a. Peter Pan).

The wildly theatrical adaptation of Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson’s best-selling novels includes marauding pirates, jungle tyrants, unwilling comrades and unlikely heroes.

Peter and the Starcatcher playfully explores the depths of greed and despair, and the bonds of friendship, duty, and love.

Supervisors mull right-of-way rules

BOONEVILLE — Pren-tiss County supervisors may consider revised rules for allowing util-ity companies to place lines on county right-of-ways in light of new state law.

Board Attorney Tommy Cadle told the board Senate Bill 2755, re-cently signed into law by the governor, sets a new system of penalties for damage to underground utilities and establishes a board overseeing the issue.

Cadle said under the new law supervi-sors could be person-ally fined if they or an employee damages a utility cable or line while conducting excavation operations more than 12-inches below the surface.

“It’s pretty well stacked against boards of supervisors and mu-nicipalities,” said Cadle.

Third District Supervi-sor Mike Kesler said based on the new law he would like to con-sider either not allowing utilities to install lines on the rights-of-way or creating stronger rules and regulations for when such installations will be allowed.

Kent Geno with Cook-Coggin Engineers said some counties have ad-opted ordinances requir-ing engineering studies and other documenta-tion before utility lines are installed.

RIPLEY — St. James COGIC is one of many places in Tippah County who are hosting the Summer Food Service Program.

The program provides free meals to any local child twice a day, in ad-dition to some fun activi-ties.

Last Thursday, par-ticipants at St. James COGIC enjoyed a variety of summer activities to beat the heat. They played in a splash pool and slid down a water slide. There were wa-ter balloons and water guns. There was an inflatable bounce house and children were play-ing basketball.

The program is open to any child from birth to 18 years old. There is no need to pre-register and there are no income guidelines. Children may simply show up and enjoy a meal and fel-lowship. The meals are provided without charge and are the same for all children regardless of race, color, national ori-gin, sex, age or disabil-ity. There will be no dis-crimination in the course

of the meal service. The meals are provided on a first come, first serve basis.

The program will con-tinue until Friday, July 29.

In Falkner, the pro-gram is available at Bethlehem Baptist Church. The church is located at 80 County Road 268. Breakfast is served from 8 until 10 a.m. and lunch is served from noon until 2 p.m.

Tishomingo officials award scholarship

IUKA — Tishomingo County High School graduate Madison Brooke Borden was recently awarded a $500 scholarship from the Tishomingo County Board of Supervisors.

Borden is the Tisho-mingo County recipient of the Mississippi As-sociation of Supervisors County Employee Schol-arship.

Borden is the grand-daughter of retired county employee Donnie Williams.

Booneville weighing tennis court options

BOONEVILLE — Boon-eville leaders are looking at options for repair or replacement of the city’s tennis courts.

Ward 4 Alderman David Bolen raised the issue again at Tuesday’s regular board meeting. He noted the courts are currently unusable due to numerous cracks in the surface.

“For two years we haven’t had usable courts in the city and that’s unacceptable,” he said.

Mayor Derrick Blythe agreed the courts need attention and said several options are on the table. He said the city is awaiting word on approval of a pos-sible grant through the Blue Cross Blue Shield Foundation of Missis-sippi in partnership with Northeast Mississippi Community College that could bring funds for improvements to the park including construc-tion of new courts. They expect to learn if they are approved by the end of July.

Blythe said it’s clear the existing courts have severe foundation is-

sues and if they are to be repaired in the current location it will require an engineer to assess the issues below the ground and deter-mine how best to shore up the foundation before any resurfacing is done.

 

Tupelo

Historic Spain House gets new columns

TUPELO — A decora-tive pair of central col-umns are now in place at the historic Spain House on Church Street in Tupelo, replacements for the original columns that crumbled when the large, three-story struc-ture was moved from its original home several blocks away, according to The Northeast Missis-sippi Daily Journal.

Each of the front columns that flank the main entry steps is made from two pieces that were glued together on site.

The column pieces are made from a lightweight concrete, said Bryan, of Lynn Bryan Construc-tion.

The columns are only decorative in function and provide no structur-al support. The column pieces were situated in place around steel poles that will shoulder all the load bearing work.

Previously, the front columns were con-structed from brick and a cement plaster. These columns crumbled when the house was moved and their reconstruction was not feasible, she said.

The Spain House dates to the early 20th century and has been called one of the oldest structures still standing in Tupelo.

In 2012, after lengthy negotiations to pre-serve the house from demolition for a church parking lot, the three-story house was relo-cated from the corner of Madison and West Main streets to its current lo-cation on Church Street, within the Mill Village Historic District.

 

Florence

Native American museum to open

FLORENCE, Ala. — Construction on the new Indian Mound museum is progressing, and what was once a muddy space with a concrete platform a few months ago has taken shape as a stone structure with Native American motifs.

The Times-Daily re-ports the museum is expected to be com-pleted by late July. An exhibit expert will design displays, and museum officials will select which artifacts will be on view. The museum should open sometime in Oc-tober.

A meeting and media room with a small stage will allow community educational events, said Calvin Durham, the Florence architect who designed the museum. Exhibits will trace the history of Native Ameri-cans in the area. The museum has approxi-mately 3,600 square feet, which is double the size of the previous building, he said.

The City Council set aside more than $1.72 million from a $19 mil-lion capital projects bond for the museum. It replaces a rickety struc-ture that was more than 50 years old and prone to flooding from the nearby Tennessee River.

 

Starkville

Police accuse man in attack with board

STARKVILLE — In Starkville, authorities have charged a Maben man for beating a man with a board reports WTVA.

Charles Douglas, 53, is charged with aggra-vated assault.

It happened outside the Cook Out restau-rant on highway 12 in Starkville.

Police say Douglas took a two-by-four and hit a man in the head.

Investigators would not say why.

For now Douglas will remain behind bars awaiting an initial court appearance.

 

Tupelo

New neighborhood gets council’s OK

TUPELO — A new neighborhood associa-tion has garnered offi-cial recognition from the city council, as well as approval for a $3,000 grant, according to The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal.

The Villages subdivi-sion, located off Coley Road near the Tupelo airport, aims to use its grant money to help increase the neighbor-hood’s visibility.

According to the asso-ciation’s grant proposal, an eight-foot high sign will be located on Lake Village Drive near its intersection with Coley Road.

The sign will be lighted and double-sided to ensure visibility to both north- and southbound traffic.

Writing on the sign will call the Villages “A Proud Tupelo Community.”

The main entrance into the Villages subdivi-sion is located further down Lake Village Drive and is not visible to passing traffic on Coley Road.

Neighborhood associa-tion members believe the sign will help guests locate the area and raise the profile of the subdivision.

What a shame.It was a sad day for more than just Tishom-

ingo County when news hit of the closure of the Old Courthouse Museum in Iuka.

It’s a sad day for all of the Crossroads area.Due to lack of stable funding, the volun-

teer-staff ed museum shut its doors on June 1. There are also no current plans of reopen-ing the historical structure.

The old courthouse will be open by ap-pointment and during special events. Other-wise, a “Sorry, We’re Closed” sign will hang on its doors.

Tishomingo County Historical & Genealog-ical Society President Bill Gurley explained the closure in a recent letter to media outlets.

The Tishomingo County Board of Supervi-sors were told of the closure at its Monday meeting.

“We appreciate the fi ne work of the volun-teer staff to date and all they have achieved. The establishment is very much a tourist at-traction in addition to being an archive of our history,” said Gurley. “The board is actively exploring means to provide stable funding for the museum and leverage collaboration with Mississippi tourism organizations and the Mississippi Department of Archives and History to exploit its potential.”

The museum has been run by a volunteer staff for the past 13 years.

“Some of the key staff have worked full-time jobs while devoting their off -time to managing the courthouse business. Person-nel to keep the facility open during weekdays were paid part-time minimal wages,” said the president. “This is no longer a workable plan as those key personnel are now faced with caring for aging parents, health issues and other personal priorities that are demanding signifi cantly more of their time in addition to their normal ‘paying-job’ workload. We can no longer fulfi ll our mission to the public without stable staffi ng brought about by suf-fi cient and stable funding.”

The museum, housed inside the 1870 Tishomingo County courthouse, had more than 3,200 visitors in 2015. Visitors were from 33 states and several countries.

In addition to the museum, also inside the courthouse includes a historical genealogical database and the John M. Stone Research Li-brary and county historical archives, both of which remain open to the public by appoint-ment only.

“All of these components of the museum require professional management by trained and qualifi ed individuals,” said Gurley. “Vol-unteers would be welcome and might fi ll po-sitions for docents or temporary absences, but even they must be trained and mentored by qualifi ed staff to meet the public and tell our story while caring for the security, au-thenticity and integrity of the county’s pre-cious historical artifacts and documentation assets.”

The problem is two-fold, according to the president.

“First of all, we have been unable to secure suffi cient volunteers to work the problem, and secondly, we do not receive suffi cient stable funding to hire full-time employees. While we greatly appreciate public donations and have worked hard and been successful in getting grant funding, these are only partial stop-gap measures and are by no means sta-ble or suffi cient enough to meet our needs,” he said.

The old courthouse is county-owned, so its future is in the hands of county supervisors.

We are hopeful the entire Tishomingo County community will rally around this great, historical building.

We implore organizations, groups, profes-sionals, businesses, individuals and county government give this building its due. Not many communities can say they are home to a courthouse which has been around for 146 years.

To not allow public daily access would be a shame.

We appreciate the Tishomingo County His-torical & Genealogical Society and all of their volunteers for the thankless work they do.

Historic courthouseneeds to stay open

Prayer for today

A verse to share

STARKVILLE — In my student days at Missis-sippi State University in the 1970s, I lived for a time in an off -campus duplex apart-ment at 101 Camp Avenue in Starkville.

The left side of the duplex was for several years occu-pied by a changing group of students from Neshoba County, including Steve Breland, Mike Tinsley, John McNeil, Bill Bates and me. We had a lot of fun together there and some of my best college memories and long-standing friendships were a result of those days

Our neighbor, and our landlord, was the wonderful lady in the right side of the duplex. Mrs. Kitty McKee, the widow of MSU Professor Jewel Chester McKee Sr., a 1917 graduate of then-Mis-sissippi A&M who went on to become a professor and head of the MSU Botany De-partment.

“Miss Kitty” was a won-derful, patient woman who was extremely tolerant of the noise and the antics of a group of country boys enjoy-ing college life. She doted on us, and we felt an obligation to take care of her as well.

But that relationship was a natural one to her, for Kitty

McKee has spent most of her life on or near a college cam-pus – as did her son, Dr. J. Chester McKee Jr., the former MSU electri-

cal engineering department head, graduate school dean and vice president for re-search who retired in 1979. McKee wrote the book on the fi rst 100 years of what would become the present MSU Bagley College of En-gineering.

Dr. McKee died June 7 in Louisville, Colorado, of nat-ural causes after a long and productive life.

But it should be noted that the junior Professor McKee had a role in changing both Mississippi’s history and the trajectory of federal disaster response in the U.S.

After Hurricane Camille made landfall in Waveland early on August 18, 1969, Gov. John Bell Williams is-sued an executive order es-tablishing the Governor’s Emergency Council, a blue-ribbon panel intended to oversee cleanup, reconstruc-tion, and redevelopment

operations after Hurricane Camille. Property damage from the storm was $1.5 billion, some $11 billion in today’s dollars. The storm killed 172 Mississippians.

Before Hurricane Katrina, only the Great Flood of 1927 rivaled Camille in terms of human misery and eco-nomic loss in the annuls of the state’s history. The work of the GEC, led by executive director Dr. Chester McKee Jr., authorized a 324-page study of the Gulf Coast that later infl uenced the 1973 de-cision by the Nixon admin-istration to combine federal disaster relief and recovery.

The Federal Disaster As-sistance Administration was created as an organizational unit within the department. This agency would oversee disasters until its incorpora-tion into the Federal Emer-gency Management Agency or FEMA, created by Presi-dential Reorganization Plan No. 3 of 1978.

More importantly, con-cerns over President Nixon’s and Gov. Williams’ handling of issues regarding racial and geographic representa-tion on the GEC and federal distribution of hurricane re-lief funds led to congressio-nal hearings that would ulti-

mately produce the passage of the 1970 Disaster Relief Act, which made permanent the expansion of a number of federal disaster assistance programs that had been pio-neered in limited form in the late 1960s.

According to the Journal of Policy History in an arti-cle titled “Hurricane Camille and the New Politics of Fed-eral Disaster Relief 1965-1970” by Andrew Morris: “Most signifi cant, it consid-erably widened the scope of federal assistance to individ-ual disaster victims, moving beyond the long-standing federal role in reconstruc-tion of public facilities. The 1970 legislation, along with amendments in 1974 and 1978, solidifi ed a federal disaster safety net that had been widening in the post-war era.”

McKee brought an engi-neer’s sense of order and purpose to a Herculean task made diffi cult by politics and the sheer scope of Ca-mille’s destruction. McKee’s service in that eff ort – and the changes that followed - deserves to remembered and appreciated.

The bidding laws in Mis-sissippi are a mess.

Contractors are allowed to donate to political cam-paigns to get government contracts. Service contracts don’t have to be bid out and governments are free to choose the high bidder.

In Jackson, minority set-asides, a product of state law, have been a disaster, allowing politically con-nected operators to interject themselves into the public procurement process, dras-tically raising the cost of city government.

It is the Jackson taxpay-ers who are hurt. Eighty percent of the Jackson tax-payers are African Ameri-cans. Raising their cost of government hurts, not helps, them. Unless you are one of the chosen few.

Take the case of Marcus Wallace, mayor of Edwards, and founder of MAC Con-struction Company in 1996.

Wallace is not an engi-neer. In fact, he has a mar-keting degree from South-ern University A&M College in Baton Rouge. He started out as a sports agent, then became an entertainment promoter. At some point, he became a contractor for the city of Jackson.

The MAC Construction website lists its partners as United Water, Hemp-hill Construction, Siemens,

CDM, Petal Valve, Neel-S c h a f f e r , Terra Re-newal. Every one of them is connected with the city of Jackson.

You have to wonder about a con-

struction company, started by an entertainment pro-moter, whose business is almost exclusively govern-ment contracts.

Thelman Boyd is vice president of MAC Construc-tion. Boyd is a former public works director for the city of Jackson.

MAC Construction was involved in the Savannah Street waste treatment plant (now taken over by the EPA), Farish Street (fi ned by the federal HUD for non-performance), the Capitol Street two-way project (which took for-ever), the Westin Hotel (funded by Hinds County), and the Siemens water me-ter disaster.

MAC was the main mi-nority contractor on Sie-mens’ $90 million contract to replace Jackson’s wa-ter meters. MAC’s cut was $17.8 million on that gig. Last week, Wallace held a press conference announc-ing he is suing Siemens to

get $37 million more.Very few construction

companies hold press con-ferences when they have a contractual dispute requir-ing litigation.

Most states require public contracts to go to the “low-est responsive bidder.” The Mississippi Legislature has charted a diff erent course. Down home, it’s “lowest and best,” meaning cities and counties, lacking any oversight, can award lucra-tive contracts to anybody they want.

It is our state Legislature, as well, that passed a law allowing for “minority set-asides,” thus creating an entire layer of political op-eratives driving up govern-ment costs 30-40 percent. As usual, it is the clueless taxpayers who get screwed.

It would be easy for the state Legislature to end this mess in Jackson. But to do so would end a $20-billion-a-year party that goes far beyond the confi nes of the Bold New City.

Wallace donated $15,000 to Jackson Mayor Tony Yar-ber’s campaign. Pay to play. As one contractor said, it’s the way business is done in Mississippi. Everybody does it.

Siemens didn’t need MAC Construction to install new water meters. The German company employs 362,000

people. Siemens needed MAC Construction to get the contract. The extra $17.8 million to MAC was just a cost of doing business.

Is it any wonder Jackson is broke?

Just look at the recent winning proposal to man-age Jackson’s one percent infrastructure tax.

The IMS proposal states: “Our team will assure that more than 85 percent of the program’s work to be per-formed by qualifi ed MBE (minority business enter-prises) based here in Jack-son.”

Jackson’s new one per-cent infrastructure com-mission hasn’t fi gured out how to pave any streets, but it has fi gured out how to hire 54 new profession-als, including three “stake-holder managers,” a “multi-media specialist,” a “green infrastructure strategist,” a “regulatory compliance manager,” a “consultants program administrator,” two “workforce trainers,” a “risk assessment specialist,” and a “client services man-ager.”

After all the engineers are paid and the minority fi rms get their cut, there’s no money left over to actu-ally pave any roads. So citi-zens get to spend thousands a year rebuilding the front ends of our cars.

State’s bidding laws are a mess

their information if they own a plot, need to locate grave spaces or have been unsure how to get grave markers.

“It’s exciting to me to see this place become a pride and joy of the com-munity again instead of something people dread to mention,” said Hodum.

Starting from records gathered by the Secretary of State’s Offi ce, the new owners are working to ensure the have accurate records of everyone who bought a plot. The cem-etery is honoring all plot purchases so that people who bought plots from the previous owners will retain their rights.

Although the court ruled that contracts are not enforceable for those who paid the former own-ers for things like vaults, memorial markers and grave opening and clos-ing, the new owners are off ering substantial dis-counts for families who lost money.

After talking with visi-tors to the cemetery, Fowlkes is well aware of the feelings many have about the recent history.

“They start out by tell-ing you how frustrated they are and what bad shape it’s been in and how the Hights did them wrong,” he said. “Once you actually talk to people and show them what’s go-ing on, that Josh is out here, people are much more receptive.”

Much is happening on the grounds. New side-walks are being placed; the entrance is being re-vamped; and the roads will see improvements. In the veterans’ area, an old fountain that no longer worked has been removed and a new statue is being installed.

The cemetery is also getting a columbarium to house cremated remains. It will be the fi rst at any cemetery in the county, said Fowlkes.

He fi rst visited the cem-etery after reading about the secretary of state’s attempts to sell it and be-came interested.

“I thought it was a good fi t for us and that we could rehab it and make it last for the long term,” he said.

The prior owner’s le-gal troubles came from spending the cemetery’s perpetual care money.

“One of the reasons we are trying to get the word out is, obviously, we need to build that back up,” said Fowlkes. “It should have hundreds of thou-sands of dollars in it right now, and it had a grand total of $1,800 that the secretary of state gave me that they built back up. That’s the bad news. The good news is we have plenty of space where we can rebuild that and make it where it can be cared for in perpetuity.”

He said the cemetery just south of Corinth is the county’s busiest, with about 100 to 125 burials

per year.They are putting 20

percent, rather than the minimum required 15 percent, from the sale of burial plots into the per-petual care fund, along with some proceeds from the cemetery’s new fl ower program.

In addition to the cemetery, Fowlkes and Coleman also acquired the closed funeral home building and an addition-al 5 acres of undeveloped property that could be used for future expansion of the cemetery.

“I don’t have plans to open a funeral home here,” said Fowlkes. “I think Corinth has enough funeral homes.”

They are making need-ed repairs to the building

in order to use the front portion as a cemetery of-fi ce and possibly make part of it available as a chapel and event space. Fowlkes is not sure what will be done with the rest of the very large building.

The new owners brought back longtime groundskeeper John Pence, a neighbor of the cemetery. Jeff Rencher will continue to provide

grave opening and clos-ing. Dale Castleberry is serving as a park ambas-sador, collecting informa-tion from visitors to con-fi rm records.

The cemetery is getting some new rules to prevent clutter around graves and will have cleanup periods three times each year. The next one will be July 15-31.

Fowlkes is pleased peo-

ple are showing apprecia-tion for the attention the cemetery is getting.

“The fi rst thing I want people to know is we care about it, we’re putting money into it and we’re here for the long-term,” he said.

derson and Northeast Public Infor-mation Specialist Michael H. Miller will lead a photo safari through Tishomingo State Park.

“Northeast Mississippi is known for some of the most beautiful land-scapes and best history in the Mag-nolia State,” said Miller. “It is only natural we return to our roots and not only use this as a learning op-portunity for educators throughout the state, but to promote the positive aspects of northeast Mississippi and Tishomingo County.”

The photo safari is slated for 10 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Participants will leave Northeast at Corinth at 9 a.m. The four sessions will last just over an hour.

“In the ever-changing role of pho-tography, mobile photography is now the ‘in’ item for many people, espe-cially educators,” said Miller. “Being

able to produce their own content for their classrooms as well as interac-tive multi-touch books, educators are learning how to increase the amount of information to their students in the face of ever-shrinking budgets.”

During the safari, environmental portraits and many other photo tech-niques will be discussed as well as hands-on explanation of classic pho-to techniques, according to Miller.

“Mobile photography not only means being able to produce a high-quality photo, but one that tells a story as well,” added Miller. “It also means being able to produce photos from just about anywhere.”

“Mr. Hurd was the young man who brought a gun to school last month,” added the captain.

Hurd was charged by Corinth po-lice in May with felony possession of a weapon by a student and carrying a concealed weapon.

Corinth High School was placed on lockdown after Hurd brought a .32

caliber handgun onto campus. The high school senior allegedly brought the weapon to school because he had reason to fear for his life.

Hurd remains in custody on the ve-hicle theft charge.

HURD

When they were kids, I took my three daughters and their friends to the creek bordering my father’s Mississippi Delta farm and let them shoot aerosol cans with a small caliber rifl e. In time, they became expert markswomen.

I’d position them on the bridge’s downstream side with the rifl e at ready, and toss a can on the upstream side. When it passed under the bridge, they’d begin their fusillade.

The mortally wounded cans skittered wildly across the surface, propelled by the release of their contents. The girls kept score for initial hits and for more diffi cult killing shots when the cans were farther downstream.

One cold afternoon, when the can killers were indulging in this diversion, the creek was near fl ood stage following heavy rains. As always, I threw a can upstream … but instead of shots, I heard the whole passel of shootists howling.

“There’s a cat down there!” they caterwauled in unison. Leaning over the railing, I saw the cause of their distress. A soaked, shivering kitten was cling-ing to a bridge piling. Leav-ing without rescuing the cat

was not an option.My fi rst idea fl opped.

Having torn a bed sheet into strips, I weighted one end and lowered it to the chilled creature. Perceiv-ing the dangling sheet as a threat, the cat hissed at its salvation.

“Listen, y’all, that cat will get hungry soon and swim to the bank,” I assured them, to no avail.

But mentioning hunger led to Plan B. We tied an open can of sardines to the sheet and lowered it to the frightened feline. Again, no results … only more hissing.

“Dad, you’re a man and must do what a man must do,” one daughter remon-strated. “You must swim out and rescue the poor thing.” I dreaded the chilly dip, but my ego being what it is, I saw an opportunity to be a hero.

At the water’s edge, I re-moved my boots and shirt, gauged the swift current, moved upstream to a dis-tance that would allow me to intersect the piling, got a running start, and hit the water at full stroke. In-stantly, my wan whiteness became gelid grayness.

Fortunately, the triangu-lation landed me on target. Grabbing the piling with one arm, I coaxed, “Here, kitty, kitty, kitty,” extend-

ing a hand.Glaring into my eyes,

the cat leaped straight at me and sank its claws into my face. Downstream we writhed, the cat fi ghting to repel a perceived predator, and the preyed-upon man trying to swim and de-cat himself simultaneously.

Finally, having rede-signed my face with its claws, the cat released its grip, swam to the bank, scurried away, and was never seen again.

Kids can be so insensi-tive. Instead of lauding my heroics, they whined be-cause I didn’t hold on to the cat and deliver it to them so that they could give it warmth, food, lots of love, and keep it!

Such incidents make for endless risible conversa-tions in small communi-ties, and for years after-ward, I was known as the cat-scratched hero.

ORLANDO, Fla. — A gunman who shot and killed a singer who rose to fame after appearing on “The Voice” traveled to Orlando from another Florida city spe-cifi cally to attack her and then fatally shot himself, authorities said Saturday.

Orlando Police Chief John Mina said at a news conference that the suspect, identifi ed as 27-year-old Kevin Loibl of St. Petersburg, Florida, didn’t ap-pear to know Christina Grimmie personally. Grimmie was shot to death after giving a concert in Orlando on Friday night. She died early Saturday.

“She was doing a meet-and-greet, just signing autographs and selling merchandise. This white male approached her and opened fi re, striking her,” Mina said. “We believe he came here to commit this crime.”

The 22-year-old singer from New Jersey fi nished third during season six of NBC’s “The Voice” in 2014, competing on the team of Maroon 5 star Adam Levine. She began amassing a follow-ing on YouTube as a teenager, gripping online viewers with her powerful renditions of hit songs. Her videos on YouTube have garnered millions of views.

In an earlier statement, police said Grimmie had performed with the band Before You Exit at The Plaza Live in Orlando. The concert ended around 10 p.m., and Grimmie was shot as she signed autographs for fans at a merchandise table in The Plaza

Live concert venue.Grimmie’s brother, Marcus,

immediately tackled the gun-man, who then shot and killed himself during the struggle, po-lice said. They credited the sing-er’s brother with preventing the gunman from hurting others. Around 120 others were in The Plaza Live at the time.

“Very heroic actions by Mar-cus Grimmie to jump in and it defi nitely could have prevented further loss of life,” Mina said.

After the concert, 17-year-old Kaitlin Martin was standing with a group of other fans out-side The Plaza Live, waiting for members of Before You Exit to come out, when she heard sev-eral loud “pops.”

“We thought at fi rst they were balloons ... but then secu-rity started running all over the place yelling at people to get out because someone has a gun and someone is shooting. Everyone is just running all over the place,” said Martin, who traveled to see to the concert from Brunswick, Georgia. “It was chaos.”

Martin said she was unset-

tled knowing the suspect had watched the concert in the same audience she was in.

“This person was in the crowd with us, and while we were sing-ing, having a great time, he was there with diff erent intentions,” she said.

Detectives were searching Loibl’s cellphone and social me-dia accounts looking for clues as to a motive, Mina said, but they weren’t aware of any history of stalking of Grimmie by the sus-pect.

At Loibl’s home, in St. Peters-burg, someone had left a note on the front door, expressing the “deepest sorrow” for the loss “to the family, friends & fans of the very talented, loving Christina Grimmie.” The note said there would be no other comment. No one answered the door to the one-story house that had a rusted, metal animal trap in the yard.

Loibl had on him two hand-guns, two loaded magazines and a hunting knife, Mina said.

There were unarmed security guards at The Plaza Live and

they checked bags and purses for contraband, but there were no metal detectors or pat-downs of people as they entered The Plaza Live, he said.

A spokeswoman said all events at The Plaza Live had been sus-pended until further notice.

Loibl had made travel ar-rangements to come to Orlando alone, as well as travel arrange-ments to go back home, but he didn’t have a car, Mina said. The police chief wouldn’t elaborate further.

Grimmie had posted a video of herself shortly before the con-cert was scheduled to begin, en-couraging fans to come see her perform.

Levine posted a photo of him-self with Grimmie on Insta-gram, commenting before her death was confi rmed: “I’m sad, shocked and confused. We love you so much Grimmie. We are all praying hard that you can pull through this ... this just isn’t fair.”

“The Voice” paid tribute to Grimmie on its offi cial Twit-ter page: “There are no words. We lost a beautiful soul with an amazing voice.”

The Philadelphia Inquirer re-ported in 2014 that Grimmie moved to Los Angeles in 2012 after joining Selena Gomez on tour to focus on her singing ca-reer.

“I’m done being surprised by cool things she does. She’s very talented and she’s worked in-credibly hard — it’s a dangerous combination,” her brother told the newspaper at the time.

RALEIGH, N.C. — When John Couch is certain a storm will hit Hatteras Is-land, he goes into action, moving merchandise in his auto parts store from bottom shelves to top ones and hauling away the most valuable items.

But at 64 years old, Couch is less and less enamored of spend-ing eight hours packing up his property. So his ears perked up when he learned about a new fore-casting model from the U.S. Geological Survey and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Asso-ciation that’s intended to give a better idea of how much ocean water will overrun an area.

“Any and all informa-tion is always helpful,” says Couch, who owns the Lighthouse Service Cen-ter and Lighthouse Auto Parts along North Caro-lina’s Outer Banks. “You don’t want to put up stuff unless you really have to.”

The USGS is running its coastal change forecast model to predict how far a storm’s waves will push water up the beach — whether it will go just to the dunes, over the dunes, or even farther onto roads and property. Oceanog-raphers are in the pilot stages of a new imple-mentation of the model that would predict beach changes in all weather conditions.

As part of the pilot pro-gram, hour-by-hour fore-casts of potential beach-front changes caused by wave conditions are un-derway in some areas of North Carolina, Massa-chusetts and Florida, said USGS research ocean-ographer Hilary Stock-don. The pilot program runs all the time for all sorts of weather, not just big storms such as hur-ricanes and nor’easters. Eventually, the forecasts — which give details for the coming days — will be available for all Gulf and Atlantic states up to 102 hours before storms.

One doctor delivered test re-sults to Prince’s home. Another sent his son, who wasn’t a phy-sician, on a cross-country fl ight to bring medication to the music star.

It’s not clear if any doctor could have averted the fentanyl overdose that killed the singer in April. But his death may of-fer evidence for how the special treatment often aff orded the rich and famous can result in worse health care than ordinary Americans receive. It’s a pattern identifi ed in medical literature as early as 1964 and it has a name: “VIP Syndrome.”

Experts agree that doctors treating Michael Jackson and Joan Rivers lost their bearings and made fatal mistakes in the glare of their patients’ fame. Elea-nor Roosevelt is another example.

“There are a number of red

fl ags that go up,” said Dr. Robert Klitzman, who directs Columbia University’s bioethics master’s program. “Prince was one of the wealthiest musicians alive. Did he get appropriate care? VIP Syn-drome may have been involved.”

First described by Dr. Walter Weintraub of the University of Maryland School of Medicine in a 1964 paper, VIP Syndrome is shorthand for how the infl uence of wealth and the allure of fame can cause doctors to veer into risky territory when they cater to the demands of a star or his entourage.

Stars may reject medical ad-vice or demand ineff ective or harmful treatments. Star-struck doctors may order unnecessary tests or not enough tests. Hospi-tal administrators may meddle in decisions if the patient is a potential fi nancial donor.

Jackson’s personal doctor, Conrad Murray, spent two years

in prison after his involuntary manslaughter conviction in the King of Pop’s 2009 death. Jack-son had requested a surgical an-esthetic, propofol, to help him sleep, calling it his “milk,” ac-cording to trial testimony. Pros-ecutors said Murray supplied the drug and didn’t notice when Jackson stopped breathing.

Eagerness to please apparent-ly pushed Murray far beyond the boundaries of reasonable treat-ment, said Dr. Stephen Dinwid-die of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine.

Another doctor took a cell-phone photo of Joan Rivers on the operating table, according to a recently settled malpractice law-suit. That’s a clear sign of clouded judgment, Dinwiddie said.

The comedian’s family ac-cepted an undisclosed amount to settle the complaint in her 2014 death following a routine endoscopy. The family alleged

doctors performed an unau-thorized medical procedure and failed to act as Rivers’ vital signs deteriorated.

Eleanor Roosevelt may have been misdiagnosed because of VIP Syndrome, said New York University School of Medicine’s Dr. Barron Lerner, who pub-lished a paper based on his re-view of her medical record.

The fi rst lady died in 1962 of tuberculosis, which could have been caught earlier if she’d had a bone marrow biopsy in time, Le-rner said. Instead, she was mis-diagnosed with aplastic anemia and treated with steroids, which may have reduced her body’s ability to fi ght infection.

“Lots of doctors were involved, and no one was specifi cally in charge,” Lerner said, citing one hallmark of VIP Syndrome. “She was an opinionated patient, and that made it more challenging to take care of her.”

2nd body of missing workers recovered

CRYSTAL SPRINGS — Rescuers on Saturday recovered the body of a second man who disap-peared in a landslide at a gravel pit in southern Mississippi earlier this month.

The second body was found around 9:50 p.m. Friday and removed Saturday morning, said Mississippi Emergency Management Agency spokesman Ray Cole-man. The man’s body was taken to the Copiah County coroner’s office for an autopsy.

The worker was found trapped in the slurry near equipment he had been operating when he and the other man were bur-ied in 10 feet to 12 feet of mud, slush and sluice on June 3.

The body of the first worker was recovered Thursday morning inside a piece of equipment.

MEMA director Lee Smithson has identified the two missing men in a Facebook message as Emmitt Shorter and James “Dee” Hemphill and offered condolences to their families.

The two men had been operating heavy equip-ment for Green Brothers Gravel Company at a pit in Crystal Springs, ac-cording to officials from the Mine Safety and Health Administration.

The federal agency will begin investigating the possible causes of the incident now that recov-ery efforts are over.

“The first priority was to get the two men out,” MSHA spokeswoman Amy Louviere said Sat-urday. “It’s too early to speculate about what the cause might have been.”

Court rejects fresh try to punish judge

JACKSON — The state Supreme Court has rejected an attempt to impose heavier penalties on a south Mississippi chancery judge.

After the high court in April rejected a call by the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance to remove Chancery Judge David Shoemake, the commission asked justices to order Shoe-make to pay a fine to the person whose estate he was overseeing. The court voted 6-2 Thursday to reject that call.

“We hold that Judge Shoemake improperly signed ex parte orders and contributed to the mismanagement of a ward’s estate. However, the Commission did not prove by clear and convincing evidence that Shoemake gave testimony that he knew or should have known would be misleading,” the court wrote.

The court suspended Shoemake for 30 days without pay, ordering him to pay a $2,500 fine and $5,900 for investigation costs. Justices also or-dered Shoemake publicly reprimanded.

The commission had asked justices to re-consider, saying it had proved by clear and convincing evidence that Shoemake gave “decep-tive” answers.

“There was no testi-mony that he was unsure about the signatures. He was absolutely unwaver-ing in his testimony re-garding the orders,” the commission said in its request for a rehearing.

Shoemake said the commission ambushed him without proper no-tice and didn’t share documents he needed.

Private prison closes as inmates dwindle

JACKSON — Missis-sippi officials plan to close a privately-run prison in Leake County in September, another sign of Mississippi’s falling prison population after lawmakers cut prison sentences.

The Mississippi De-partment of Corrections announced Friday that it would close the Wal-nut Grove Correctional Facility, which is run by Utah-based Manage-ment and Training Corp. Commissioner Marshall Fisher says he made the decision because of low-er-than-requested state funding in the budget year beginning July 1, as well as the decreasing number of inmates.

The department says it will transfer 900 prison-ers at Walnut Grove to state-run facilities. MTC runs three other private prisons for Mississippi in Lauderdale, Marshall and Wilkinson counties.

Walnut Grove has been under federal court over-sight since 2012, after a judge found abusive conditions for juveniles. Juveniles were removed, but problems persisted.

Arraignment slated in death of waitress

BILOX — An arraign-ment is set for Monday for a former Biloxi fire-fighter accused in the shooting death of a Waf-fle House waitress.

A grand jury indicted Johnny Max Mount, 45, on a charge of first-degree murder in the Nov. 27 killing of Julie Brightwell.

Mount’s attorney, Jim Davis, tells The Sun Her-ald he will not waive the arraignment.

The arraignment will be before Circuit Judge Lisa Dodson.

“(Mount) will enter a not guilty plea at this time,” Davis said Thurs-day.

According to court re-cords, Mount was seated at a counter when Bright-well told him he couldn’t smoke his e-cigarette inside the Biloxi restau-rant.

He became angry, court records say, and pulled a 9 mm handgun from his waist.

When Brightwell saw the gun, records say, she ducked behind a coun-ter but Mount got up, leaned over the counter and shot her once in the head. She died a short time later at Merit Health Biloxi.

Groups seek equity in school discipline

HERNANDO — A co-alition of racial justice groups, including one involved in a civil-rights complaint against DeSoto County schools, is calling for “decisive ac-tion” to end what it calls persistent racial dispari-ties in student discipline.

The Commercial Ap-peal reports the groups issued the call this week following the release of new data by the Depart-ment of Education’s Of-fice of Civil Rights. The data finds that African-American students are nearly four times as likely to be suspended as white students.

Education Secretary John King said the find-ings, released Tuesday, show a “systemic failure” to provide equal educa-tion to all students.

The school system, Mississippi’s largest with more than 33,000 students, denies the charges. It says its policy is designed to provide student safety and is ap-plied equally.

Globe-circling flight arrives in New York

NEW YORK — The pi-lots of a solar-powered airplane on a globe-cir-cling voyage that began more than a year ago said their flight over the Statue of Liberty before landing in New York inspired them on their mission to promote a world free from reliance on fossil fuels.

“Today, liberty is about finding and promoting renewable sources of power,” said Bertrand Piccard, the initiator and one of the pilots of the Swiss-made Solar Impulse 2. “Our mission is to dem-onstrate that just the energy of the sun can give us enough power to fly day and night.”

Piccard and Andre Borschberg, who flew the plane to New York’s John F. Kennedy Inter-national Airport, arrived Saturday from Pennsyl-vania at 4 a.m. after a 4 hour-41-minute flight.

“It was really gor-geous,” Borschberg said of the aerial view of the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor. “I felt like I was a young child in front of a Christ-mas tree.”

Their trip across the U.S. mainland began April 24, when Solar Impulse landed in Mountain View, Califor-nia, after flying over the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco on its way from Hawaii.

Speaker loses post after ethics verdict

OPELIKA, Ala. — Ala-bama House Speaker Mike Hubbard’s convic-tion on ethics charges automatically removes him from office and could mean years in prison for the powerful Republican.

Friday night, a jury found the one-time GOP star guilty of 12 counts of public corruption for using the influence and prestige of his political stature to benefit his companies and clients. He faces up to 20 years in prison for each count.

The jury, which reached the verdict af-ter nearly seven hours of deliberation, acquit-ted Hubbard on 11 other counts.

The conviction comes amid a season of scan-dal that has engulfed

Republicans at the helm of Alabama’s legislative, judicial and executive branches of govern-ment. Chief Justice Roy Moore faces possible ouster from office over accusations that he vio-lated canons of judicial ethics during the fight over same-sex mar-riage. And Gov. Robert Bentley has faced calls for his impeachment af-ter a sex-tinged scandal involving a former top aide.

“We hope this verdict tonight restores some of the confidence in the people of the state of Alabama that public of-ficials at all levels in the state of Alabama will be held accountable for their actions, especially those that would betray the public trust,” said W. Van Davis, the acting attorney general in the case.

City battles auto burglary epidemic

SAN FRANCISCO — The city of San Fran-cisco is enduring an epidemic of auto bur-glaries.

Police took a record 26,500 reports of ve-hicle break-ins last year. That’s the most in the country on a per capita basis.

Police and prosecu-tors blame each other for the surge.

Police say a new state law helped written by the San Francisco district attorney that reduced felony crimes to misdemeanors is at fault. The district at-torney’s office say the police haven’t made enough arrests, solving just 2 percent of the re-ported cases.

Regardless of blame, residents like Lauren Smith of Pacific Heights are frustrated. The side window of her Lexus has been broken twice in the last six months. She and other San Francisco residents and tourists say they want the burglaries curtailed and the culprits caught.

Muslims see bias in landmark decision

YONKERS, N.Y. — Af-ter months of searching to find a home for their mosque, a Muslim group settled on a century-old, three-story Tudor in a leafy neighborhood of a New York suburb, a fixer-upper they say would

be perfect with the right renovations.

But not long after the sale went through last year, neighbors thought it was perfect just the way it was. A neighbor-hood group filed an application to have the building designated a city landmark and won final approval last month, meaning any exterior renovations will now have to go through a time-consuming per-mission process.

While city officials insisted the landmark status wouldn’t prevent the home being used as a mosque, the Muslim organization saw some-thing more sinister.

“We feel that we are being targeted,” said Arshad Shariff, chair-man of the Islamic Community Center of Mid-Westchester. “And unnecessary obstacles and hindrances are be-ing placed because we are Muslim.”

Fish return to NY tributary to spawn

TROY, N.Y. — A few days after a long-aban-doned industrial dam was removed from the mouth of a Hudson Riv-er tributary this spring, hundreds of river her-ring swarmed up into the shallow waters to spawn for the first time in 85 years.

The removal of the rusted steel dam on the Wynants Kill near Alba-ny was the first of what ecologists hope will be many barriers removed in Hudson tributaries to restore spawning habitat for herring and other ocean-going spe-cies that have been devastated by habitat loss, pollution and over-fishing.

The project is part of a larger movement that has dismantled almost 250 dams across the country since 2012, according to the conser-vation group American Rivers.

“There are more than 1,500 dams in the Hud-son estuary watershed, most of them no longer in use,” said Frances Dunwell, coordinator of the state Department of Environmental Conser-vation’s Hudson River Estuary Program. “One of the key items on our to-do list by 2020 is to remove as many of these barriers as pos-sible.”

Local fast-casual burg-er restaurant Back Yard Burgers held activities all May long in honor of Na-tional Burger Month.

BYB has teamed up with No Kid Hungry and is committed to raising $100,000 location-wide for the cause this year, with a goal of $50,000 for

the end of May.To get fans in the Burg-

er Month spirit, the burg-er experts also launched a petition to change the name of the month of May to Burger. Yes that’s right, Burger! One lucky fan who signs the peti-tion will even win free Back Yard Burgers for a

year.Back Yard Burgers also

held two burger mak-ing events in Franklin, Tenn. and Southaven on Monday, May 23 to help celebrate burger month. The contests featured community leaders bat-tling it out to make the ultimate gourmet burger

using unique ingredients in order to become the “Flame-Grilled Master Chef.” Participants were awarded with free burger coupons for being a part of this awesome event. Donations could be made on-site to No Kid Hungry to vote for the best burger chef.

BYB celebrates Burger Month

SAN FRANCISCO — A California public water district that earned a rare federal penalty over what it described as “a little En-ron accounting” loaned one of its executives $1.4 million to buy a riverfront home, and the loan re-mains unpaid nine years later although the offi cial has left the agency, ac-cording to records and interviews.

Westlands Water Dis-trict says its 2007 loan to deputy general manager Jason Peltier — now at $1.57 million with a 0.84 percent annual interest rate — is allowed under agency rules on salary.

But experts in gover-nance say the deal raises red fl ags, not just over the unpaid loan and its gener-ous terms but over wheth-er Peltier and Westlands complied with laws man-dating disclosure of the use of public funds.

“Show me the statute that allows this,” said Pe-ter Detwiler, long the top consultant, now retired, to the California Senate on local government fi -nance.

“Where else could you borrow $1.6 million dol-lars for 0.84 percent?” Detwiler asked. “Who wouldn’t want a real-es-tate deal like that? Sweet.”

Westlands, which sells water to big farmers and other landowners in the country’s largest public irrigation district, came under scrutiny in March, when federal regulators levied a $125,000 pen-alty against it over book-keeping that a Westlands’ general manager had de-scribed as “a little Enron accounting.”

The Securities and Ex-change Commission had concluded Westlands misled bond investors

about its fi nancial condi-tion.

A heavyweight in Cali-fornia water politics, Westlands currently is negotiating two multi-billion-dollar deals with local, state and federal agencies that would re-shape water distribution in California, the coun-try’s agriculture leader.

Peltier described the loan from Westland’s re-serve funds as a good deal for the water agency and for him.

“It was what was attrac-tive to me, and I guess it worked for them relative to where their reserves were,” said Peltier, who has since bought an ad-ditional house at the Cali-fornia golf-resort town of Pebble Beach while his loan to Westlands for his home on “Mil-lionaires Row” along the Sacramento River has re-mained unpaid.

Governance experts say public agencies some-times provide home loans to help recruit execu-tives, but say Peltier’s ap-pears unusual because it was extended for years at a fraction of the inter-est rates of commercial mortgages, the district’s various actions on the loan were not disclosed publicly although Peltier is a public offi cial, and the loan will continue for years after he stopped working at Westlands.

“Each of the individual features is a bit unusual. Taken together these fea-tures are very unusual,” Fred Whittlesey, a con-sultant on employee com-pensation based in Wash-ington state, said of the circumstances of the loan.

“Free money is usually a great deal,” Whittlesey said. “But it may not be appropriate in an em-ployment arrangement.”

The story on the loan is this, according to Peltier and records from West-lands and the U.S. Inte-rior Department, where he worked before West-lands:

In March 2007, Peltier, whose Interior job includ-ed overseeing California water issues, notifi ed the department he was look-ing for a job elsewhere. Two months later, he signed a $1.4 million pur-chase agreement for his home with a new, “state of the art” $115,000 boat dock and a $100,000 swimming pool.

Peltier said he had already signed the pa-perwork before getting the Westlands job off er. Westlands hired Peltier June 25, 2007, as chief deputy general manager, and a short time later loaned him the full $1.4 million home price, agen-cy records show.

Terms initially required Peltier to repay the mon-ey within a year, when he sold his old house in a Vir-ginia suburb of Washing-ton, D.C. But Peltier said the home didn’t move after the 2007 housing crash, and records show he signed repeated one-year loan extensions.

In 2012, he and West-lands revamped their agreement giving him un-til 2021 to pay off the loan, with a fi nal payment of more than $1 million, ac-cording to district records. Peltier made monthly payments of about $5,000 from January 2013 to Feb-ruary 2015.

Peltier, whose salary was about $200,000 ac-cording to state records, fi nally sold the house back East in February 2014, and left Westlands for a job at an affi liated water agency in summer 2015, with the Westlands

loan still unpaid.Current Westlands

Deputy General Manager Johnny Amaral defended the transaction.

“Unfortunately, Mr. Peltier, like millions of other Americans, was un-able to sell his property in Virginia because of the collapse of the housing market and the bridge loan was converted to a long-term loan,” Amaral said in an email.

Westlands offi cials de-clined interviews.

The Associated Press had asked Westlands un-der open records laws to provide all documents on the loan, including any showing whether the district disclosed the deal publicly.

In response to written questions, Chief Oper-ating Offi cer Dan Pope said the home loan was allowed under a district rule that gives offi cials the authority to set salaries. There was no public re-cord of the district board’s loan decision, Pope wrote, because it was made in a closed session.

The AP could fi nd public mention of the loan only on the website of a fed-eral agency that oversees municipal bonds. Posted there were Westlands’ an-nual audits, which from 2010 on reported a $1.4 million loan to an uniden-tifi ed management-level employee.

Peter Scheer, head of the California-based non-profi t First Amendment Coalition, said Westlands as a public agency should have disclosed all of its actions on Peltier’s loan, noting that the public has a right to know those de-tails. Scheer’s group has been supported by dona-tions from some news or-ganizations, including the AP.

Horoscopes

Don’t miss a special editionof the Daily Corinthian coming Tuesday

with three sections and over 30 pages of news and features from the Crossroads Area.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian

ARIES (March 21-April 19). What’s the objective? Call it out, and then direct your power there at least three times today and for 50 minutes at a time. This will be a magic quick-start recipe for you, especially if done before sunset.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Helping those in need isn’t optional to you, as there is something inside that simply must commit to the task. Fur-thermore, as far as your family is concerned you’re a regular superhero.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). For modern humans, the pains of life are emotional and ex-istential as often as they are physical. For you there will be a wonderful mix -- just enough stimuli to spur you to a roman-tic, brilliant, existential idea.

CANCER (June 22-July 22). It is usually experience, and not genetics, that makes a person ruthless. A kindhearted person makes the ruthless nervous, as they will fi nd the kindness beau-

tiful and therefore threatening.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your

idea is still hovering between the realms of here and not here. You can sense it on the other side of a membrane, wondering about you as much as you are wondering about it.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Is your dream improbable? So what? So are you. That this it-eration of you came to be at all was against the odds, beyond your comprehension. Consider-ing how very lucky you’ve been, you might want to push that a little further.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Do you know the depth of what you have loved? Few can claim that knowledge, but if you strive for it even a little this day, you’ll be richer for the reach.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). There’s an impulsiveness to the day. You have many friends, and you should call on one who is particularly knowledgeable before you make the move you are contemplating.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You want to help: Carry the groceries; hear out the problem; connect the people who should know one another. Whatever the deal, you want to contribute. You’re versatile. You’ll fi nd a way.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your fortune will follow this dictum: Stacks and stacks of near misses and then suddenly a hit. How wonderful it will feel, this victory you have so diligent-ly earned!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You know what you have to do if you’re going to walk your talk: Wean yourself off the dis-traction that’s been taking so much of your attention and giv-ing so little back to you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The dramas on television are exciting and rapid-fi re repre-sentations of lives that no one lives. Contrastingly, real life has minimal plot and extraordinary beauty, which you’ll enjoy to-day.

D E A R ABBY: My younger sis-ter lives at home with our parents. She suffers from a learn-ing disabil-ity as well as some seri-ous mental health issues that are un-

der control. She is a bright, sweet person

who -- with some help -- could become semi-independent. However, my parents have made no serious attempts to en-courage this.

She graduated from high school 10 years ago and has sought no further education or employment opportunities. She spends most of her time in her room playing video games.

I have tried to offer sugges-tions like volunteering or joining an organization.

While this is met with polite positivity, it has inspired no ac-tion.

Our parents are getting older, and if my sister isn’t able to live independently, the burden of supporting her will fall on me. I am not permitted to express how frustrating this situation is or how sad it makes me.

I am shut out of the conversa-tion, even though my future and

the future of my own family is in-volved. I live far away, but keep in touch regularly. What can I say or do to encourage change? -- THE BAD SISTER

DEAR “BAD” SISTER: Your parents are doing your sister no favors by keeping her iso-lated and dependent. This is a conversation that needs to take place with them in person, rather than from a distance.

You and your husband should meet with them face to face. It’s important that you understand what fi nancial provisions they have made for your sister in the event of their deaths, and you should know exactly what your responsibilities will entail.

Years ago, one of my assis-tants was in a situation just like yours.

His younger brother was men-tally disabled and lived with their parents until their deaths. At that point, responsibility for the younger brother was left to the older brother.

The parents had assumed that the same kind of living arrange-ment would continue.

However, the gentleman who worked with me understood that it would not be healthy for ei-ther of them, so he arranged for his brother to move to a group home.

There he was able to partici-pate in activities and, for the fi rst time in his life, to make friends. If your sister doesn’t have the

skills to live independently, this may be the solution for her, too.

DEAR ABBY: I’m retired and living full time in my RV. During the summer months, more folks travel as I do, many of them with children.

While I think this is a wonder-ful experience for families, some parents appear to forget that there are others in the camp-ground and allow their children, regardless of age, to roam around unsupervised.

This can be dangerous be-cause large vehicles many not see small children dart into their path.

Also, while they might know their neighbors at home, you have no idea who might be parked nearby at a campground.

This means that unless invit-ed, children (and adults) should not cut through occupied sites.

Just like at home, common sense and courtesy will make camping a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone. -- MARGARET IN SIOUX FALLS

DEAR MARGARET: Amen! Thank you for the reminder to your fellow travelers.

Dear Abby is written by Abi-gail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

STARKVILLE — Bobby Dalbec pitched a season-high 8 2/3 scoreless innings, Cameron Ming got the fi nal out with two on and Arizona beat Mississippi State 1-0 on Friday night in the Starkville Su-per Regional.

Dalbec (10-4), drafted in the fourth round by the Boston Red Sox on Friday, threw 129 pitches in his fi fth start of the season. He allowed just fi ve hits and struck out nine for Arizona (43-21).

Ryan Gridley and John Holland singled to left fi eld with two outs in the ninth to chase Dalbec. Ming struck out Jake Mangum for his second save of the season.

Mississippi State (44-17-1) left 10 men on base.

Arizona designated hitter JJ Matijevic sliced a double to left fi eld to score Ryan Aguilar from fi rst in the sixth inning. In the bottom half, Dalbec struck out the side for his second straight 1-2-3 inning.

Dalbec needed just fi ve pitches to re-tire the side in the seventh and he fi n-ished the eighth after a power outage caused a 37-minute delay.

Game 2 of the best-of-three series was underway at press time Saturday. The series winner will advance to the College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.

BLUE MOUNTAIN  — Blue Mountain College Director of Intercollegiate Athletics Lavon Driskell recently announced the hiring of Creighton Nelms to lead the BMC Bowling teams.

A Kossuth native, Nelms has been handed the reins to the inaugural program at BMC.

Nelms has taught math at Kossuth High School for four years while coaching bowling for three.

At KHS, Nelms has led the women’s program to a 2014 state runner-up fi nish, a 2015 state championship and a 2016 third-place fi nish in the state, giving the program a record of 22-9 in that span.

On the men’s side, Nelms has guided his team to a 2015 and 2016 state runner-up fi n-ish. During three years, the men have compiled a record of 31-6.

Nelms was rewarded for his accomplishments in 2016,

being named the Mississippi High School Bowling Coach of the Year.

“I’m excited to have the opportunity to continue my coaching career at Blue Moun-tain College,” Nelms said. “This is a great school and great com-munity. Bowling is certainly on the rise in Mississippi.”

Nelms’ wife, Chassey, leads the Blue Mountain College Cheerleading team as head coach. The couple have one son, Cooper.

SCOOBA — For the sec-ond straight year, East Mis-sissippi Community College will be represented by three student-athletes at the Col-lege National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyoming.

With national collegiate rodeo competition set to be-gin on Sunday and running through the following Sat-urday at the Casper Events Center, EMCC will be rep-resented at the week-long CNFR by all-around regional champions Marcus Theriot and Katelyn Nicholson as well as Kody Rinehart.

Coach Morgan Goodrich’s East Mississippi rodeo team has now had student-ath-letes qualify for the College National Finals Rodeo every year since the program’s in-

ception prior to the 2010-11 rodeo season. This week, EMCC’s Theriot, Nicholson and Rinehart will each have three rounds of competition in their respective events while aiming to qualify for Saturday’s championship round.

Expected to lead the way for EMCC’s trio of competi-tors in Wyoming, Theriot enters the CNFR as the na-tion’s second-ranked col-legiate cowboy with 2,060 total points after claiming fi ve all-around Ozark Region event titles during the 2015-16 regular season. As the all-around men’s regional cham-pion, the Poplarville product will compete individually in the tie-down roping and steer wrestling events while partnering with UT Martin’s

Lane Mitchell in the team roping competition. The 2014 National High School Finals Rodeo all-around cowboy and reigning Missis-sippi High School Rodeo As-sociation’s boys’ all-around champion, Theriot currently ranks fourth among National Intercollegiate Rodeo Asso-ciation cowboys in tie-down roping, eighth in team rop-ing (header) and 18th in steer wrestling.

On the women’s side, Nich-olson likewise captured all-around honors to complete the EMCC sweep within the Ozark Region’s respective all-around individual stand-ings. Tied for 21st nation-ally among the NIRA’s lead-ing all-around cowgirls with 1,175 total points, Nicholson will participate in her spe-

cialty event as the regional barrel racing champion. The Lawrence native will also compete in goat tying during the upcoming CNFR.

Rinehart is making a re-turn trip to the College Na-tional Finals Rodeo after competing independently for Blue Mountain College last year. The Kossuth High School product placed third in saddle bronc riding com-petition during this year’s Ozark Region schedule.

At last year’s CNFR, bull rider Winston Cheek earned 125 points by advancing to the championship round to give the EMCC men’s team a program-best, 25th-place national fi nish. The 2014-15 East Mississippi squad was

BROOKLYN, Mich. — Daniel Suarez became the fi rst Mexican-born driver to win a NASCAR national race, passing Kyle Busch and holding off one of the sport’s big stars at the Xfi nity Series race at Michigan.

“To be able to be an example to bring more people is great,” said Suarez, who moved to the U.S. fi ve years ago.

Busch led 88 of the 125 laps in

the Menards 250 race Saturday, but couldn’t stay ahead of Suarez for the fi nal two laps.

“I didn’t know Suarez was coming like that,” Busch said. “He had some speed.”

The 24-year-old Suarez is the fi rst non-American to lead any of NASCAR’s three national series in points. He became the fi rst Mexican to win the Xfi nity Series rookie of the year award last year.

Winning, for the fi rst time,

adds quite a feat to his list of ac-complishments.

“This is monumental,” said David Wilson, president of Toy-ota Racing Development

Busch, Paul Menard, Erik Jones and Elliott Sadler fi nished in the top fi ve.

“It couldn’t have been scripted better because he had to beat some heavy hitters,” Wilson said. “He didn’t do it at a stand-alone event.”

Jones raced with “Dave,” in-stead of his name painted above the driver side window. His fa-ther, Dave Jones, died this week at 53 after a short bout with can-cer.

“Erik made a point to be in that race car,” Wilson said. “He did it to honor his father.”

Gordie Howe was mentioned during the invocation before the race about 70 miles west of Detroit, where he played much

of his career for the Red Wings. Howe died Friday at 88.

Suarez won for the fi rst time in 48 starts in NASCAR’s national series, getting rewarded for a climb through the sport’s devel-opment programs. He became a part of NASCAR in 2011 and was involved in its Drive for Diversity and Next programs.

“Without all the support, may-be I wouldn’t be here right now,” he acknowledged.

Often lost in the euphoria of confetti blizzards and cham-pagne showers of an NBA Fi-nals triumph is the crushing despair just down the hall.

Just last June, an exhausted LeBron James sat behind the microphone not long after his fourth career loss in the fi nals. He had done everything he could have possibly done for the short-handed Cavaliers He had been trying to end Cleveland’s 51-year champi-onship drought, and it wasn’t enough.

In a moment of unbridled honesty, James wondered if it

was all worth it.“I’m almost starting to be

like I’d rather not even make the playoff s than to lose in the fi nals,” James said after the Cavs lost to the Warriors in six games. “It would hurt a lot easier if I just didn’t make the playoff s and I didn’t have a shot at it.”

James has won two cham-pionships, but a year later his Cavaliers are on the brink of heartbreak again. Now the Cavs head back to the Bay Area trailing Golden State 3-1, with the Warriors eyeing a second straight title in a year in which they won a record 73 regular-season games.

Whether the Warriors fi n-ish the Cavs off again in Game 5 on Monday night or James orchestrates one of the great comebacks in sports history, somebody will be left in an-guish.

Falling just short after com-ing so far can be gut-wrench-ing, an experience that can haunt a player long after his days on the court are over.

“It’s just like here’s a store window, OK? And when you’re little, there’s candy be-hind that window,” said Lak-ers legend Jerry West, who went 1-8 in the fi nals in his Hall of Fame career. “And you can almost touch it but you

can’t get there.“I’ve often said there’s more

great stories in losing locker rooms than winning locker rooms. Great stories. And no one cares to go there because this country relishes, as every-one does, they relish winners. But there’s devastated people in that other locker room. Devastated. Unfortunately that’s been the case for me many years.”

West last played an NBA game in 1974, but when he is asked about his fi nals record, his eyes turn as cold as they were when he was staring

NEW YORK — Creator closed with a rush and caught Destin at the wire to win the $1.5 million Belmont Stakes on Saturday, with Preakness winner Exag-gerator fi nishing well back in the fi eld.

The 3-year-old gray colt trained by Steve Asmussen came fl ying down the stretch as Destin tried to hang on to the lead. But it was Creator, who fi n-ished 13th in the Derby and skipped the Preakness, who won by a nose. It was the fourth time the Belmont was decided by a nose — the closest possible margin of victory.

Preakness winner Exaggerator was sent off as the 7-5 favorite in the fi eld of 13. He wound up 11th.

The winning time for 1 1/2 miles was 2:28.51.

also represented in Wyo-ming by fellow bull rider Justin Reeves and all-around regional reserve champion cowgirl Kelsey Kennemer, who com-peted in team roping and barrel racing.

Two years ago at na-tionals, EMCC’s team roping tandem of Colt Fisher and Justin Pruitt advanced to the fi nals in leading the Lions to a 28th-place national team fi nish. East Missis-sippi previously earned consecutive 35th-place men’s team showings during CNFR events held in 2012 and 2013.

The College National Finals Rodeo is where the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association an-nually crowns individual event champions in sad-dle bronc riding, bare-back riding, tie-down roping, steer wrestling, bull riding, team roping, barrel racing, breakaway roping and goat tying.

The top three in each event and the top two men’s and women’s teams from each of the NIRA’s 11 regions annu-ally qualify for the CNFR. With more than 400 cow-boys and cowgirls from over 100 universities and colleges expected to com-pete this coming week in Casper, national team championships will also be awarded in the men’s and women’s divisions.

Online results from this year’s CNFR will be updated daily and avail-able on the NIRA’s web-site, www.collegerodeo.com.

In addition, the best action from the 2016 College National Finals Rodeo will be featured on ESPNU during two televised hours of recap coverage beginning at 6 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 18.

Additional airings of the pair of one-hour re-cap shows are also slated to be shown on ESPNU throughout the remain-der of August.

down Bill Russell and the Boston Celtics all those years ago.

“To me, about three (of his losses) I didn’t want to play anymore,” said West, now an executive board member and consultant with the Golden State Warriors. “I just didn’t want to do it. It took so much out of you.”

James has spoken with West over the years about managing the pain that comes with losses on the biggest stage. The victo-ries may be remembered, but the defeats are never forgotten.

Former Pistons guard Chauncey Billups has never completely shaken the loss to San Antonio in the 2005 fi nals. Billups, who earned the nickname “Mr. Big Shot” for his clutch play throughout a 16-year NBA career, lik-ened the pain to mourn-ing.

After winning the title in 2004, Detroit was on the verge of a second crown when Spurs for-ward Robert Horry in-terrupted any plans for a parade by making a 3-pointer to win Game 5.

“That was one of the darkest days in my career, man,” Billups said before Game 4 in Cleveland, re-calling Horry’s shot as if it had just happened. “That was rough and tough for me. That loss hurt me

more than losing Game 7. We thought we had the game won, it was over.”

The Pistons would drop the series in seven games, losing on the Spurs’ home fl oor when the NBA used a 2-3-2 format.

“Man, Game 7 was tough,” said Billups, a fi ve-time All-Star. “That was a tough, tough ride home. You got all your family there. It’s emo-tional and you never, ever forget about that day — when and how it hap-pened, who spoke in the locker room. You never forget about any of that. You remember that stuff much more than what happened after you win it. It’s so tough.”

Billups said his recov-ery was slow.

“It takes awhile,” he said. “But what happens is you end up having to. It’s like losing someone, man. You grieve. You spend the proper amount of time on it and you move forward. It takes time, though, it’s real tough.”

For some players, like West, the bitter taste nev-er leaves.

“Even today it bothers me,” West said. “No fun to get there that many times and not to get the results you want, regard-less of how you played.

“In the playoff s, the best players are supposed to play better. I did. It made no diff erence. We weren’t good enough, obviously.”

“Grunt: The Curious Science of Humans at War” by Mary Roach

c.2016, W.W. Norton $26.95 / $34.95 Canada 285 pages

Thank you for your ser-

vice.You’ve said that many

times recently, and meant every word to every sol-dier. Thank you for keep-ing us protected. Thank you for your bravery. Thank you for your sacri-fi ce. And once you’ve read “Grunt: The Curious Sci-ence of Humans at War” by Mary Roach, you’ll also thank those who serve our servicemen and women.

Chickens are not ducks.Nevertheless, chicken

carcasses are what the U.S. military uses to test its equipment to ensure that it’s safe from “bird-strike,” which describes those instances when fl ying bird (duck, goose, even starling) meets fl ying machine. Birdstrike kills more than just birds, so the military needs to know its equipment can handle feathered foes - therefore, it uses a “chicken gun” to shoot pullets, not bullets.

And that, says Roach, “is most of what I have to say about guns.” Instead of focusing on artillery and battles in “Grunt,” she focuses on the fi ght to keep our troops comfort-able, hydrated, healthy, and alive.

While it might seem easy, for instance, to out-

fi t many thousand people in identical clothing, what our troops wear is a kind of weapon. The U.S. gov-ernment hires fashion designers to develop uni-forms that are weather-appropriate, as fi reproof as possible, and that can repel chemicals. Even the buttons are tested exten-sively: “specifi cations,” says Roach, “run to twen-ty-two pages.”

As for the vehicles troops use for transport, Roach says that engineers must constantly modify them for the safety of our

soldiers. That often means that Strykers carry up to 5 tons of extra protection on their frames, much of it tested on the cadavers of people who serve “with-out actually enlisting.”

Military scientists know how to protect the sol-diers’ hearing, and other um, equipment farther below on the body; says Roach, “thanks… to the transgender community,” they know how to fi x inju-ries there.

Others strive to teach medics to think in the midst of chaos. They study

diarrhea, sweat, bugs, stinky smells, and sharks. And they know that sleep is one of a military’s great-est defenses.

Camoufl age is a familiar sight these days, and it’s usually worn by someone you thank for their ser-vice.

For diff erent reasons, the creators of camoufl age deserve appreciation, too,

as do others who keep soldiers safe. “Grunt” ex-plains further.

Now, mind you, there are no vivid recreations of battles in this book, but Roach tells readers about the aftermath of battle. You won’t get specs on equipment, but she’ll tell you about how science has improved on the gear sol-diers use. What you will

get, however, is a curious-minded tour through the science of war and real, sometimes gruesome but always fascinating peeks far beyond the barracks. And Roach does it with a delightfully lighthearted-yet-serious approach. Sa-lute!

Supporting our troops is more than a verbal “thank you.” The surprise is that it also comes from laboratories, volunteers, manufacturers, and ex-haustive research, and this book tells you how. If you love – or were! – a soldier you’ll want it, because missing “Grunt” would be a disservice.

In a fi nancial climate where most people are pinching pennies, it comes as no surprise that many engaged cou-ples seek ways to cut costs with regard to their weddings. Some couples are undecided whether certain components of their wedding are neces-sary.

The decision to hire a videographer is one such area couples fret over. After all, with a photog-rapher snapping hun-dreds of pictures, having a video may seem like an unnecessary luxury. However, people often fi nd that having a wed-ding video to cherish long after the day has passed is well worth the price.

There are several ad-vantages to hiring a pro-fessional videographer to capture the day. A professionally produced wedding video is not the same as Uncle Fred car-rying around his archaic camcorder and catch-ing a few embarrassing dance moves during the reception. A profession-al video will showcase all moments of the wedding from perspectives not easily captured by pho-tography. In addition to showcasing the im-ages of the wedding, the video will also share the sounds and emotions of the day. Here are some things to think about.

• Choose a videogra-pher who will work in conjunction with the wedding mood and pa-rameters. You probably don’t want a videogra-pher who uses bright lights that can be dis-tracting. Nor do you want a videographer who pushes the camera in guests’ faces for a less-than-candid interview.

Today’s professionals are inconspicuous and simply record the events as they unfold.

• The videographer often works in tandem with the photographer. Some photographers have a videographer on staff . But it is fi ne to bring in your own if you like the quality of the photographer’s photos but not the videogra-pher’s work.

• A videographer will capture the things you may have missed during the busy day. He or she can serve as the eyes and ears for the things you’re not seeing and hearing.

• Although ours is an increasingly digital world where people cap-ture photos and videos on their smartphones and other devices on a regular basis, a wedding video can serve as a fam-ily memento. What oth-er time, apart from the holidays, do you have all of your friends and loved ones together in one place?

• Although no one wants to think of a friend or relative pass-ing away while planning their wedding, the fact remains that after a few years some of the people who attended your wed-ding may no longer be around. Having a wed-ding video may be the only last moving image and sound of a special person who is no longer in your life.

• Sound is a portion of the wedding that photos simply cannot capture. To relive the music and the words of the day, a videographer is a ne-cessity. Professionals who use wireless mi-crophones will produce a video with the best sound quality.

Wood 50th AnniversaryThe children of Mickey and Ann (Brown) Wood invite all friends and relatives to join them in celebration of their parents’ 50th wedding anniversary. The event will take place at 7 p.m. on Saturday, June 18 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, located at 404 West George E. Allen Drive in Booneville. The dress will be casual.

Wedding videos create tons of memories for all

Few things set the tone for a wedding ceremony and reception better than music. Music establishes ambience and serves to transition guests through the various components of the day.

Music is played in vari-ous ways throughout a wedding. For example, the wedding ceremony may be accompanied by a pianist or violinist, while music during the recep-tion is usually provided by a band or deejay.

The decision of wheth-er to hire a band or dee-jay often comes down to personal preference and budget. The following are some things couples should consider as they make their decision to go with a band or deejay.

Band

Live musicians spend years honing their crafts, and watching a band play at a wedding reception can be akin to attending a concert.

A live band can bring with it a sense of sophis-tication. Performers can tone the music to the crowd and improvise if necessary to meet the needs of the room. A good bandleader also will serve as a master of ceremonies at the reception.

Many wedding bands can competently play songs from various genres of music, while some are especially skilled at recre-ating the sound of a par-ticular group.

Bands tend to be more expensive than deejays,

and that’s something cou-ples must factor into their budgets if they prefer a band to a deejay.

Deejay

The deejay is one of the fi rst vendors people think of when they envision a wedding reception. Per-haps because they are less expensive, deejays tend to be more popular than bands among today’s cou-ples.

Deejays are advanta-geous for various reasons. Thanks to the accessibil-ity of digital music, dee-jays can often procure just about any song a cou-ple desires for the recep-tion. That’s a signifi cant benefi t for couples who want to hear the original versions of their favorite songs, and not a band’s take on those songs.

Deejays also can read the crowd and make ad-justments to the music at any time. If a particular genre is not working, dee-jays can easily transition to another type of music to get guests back on their feet. That’s not always possible for bands whose repertoire is exclusive to a particular genre.

Many deejays also blend songs seamlessly and may incorporate lights and other eff ects into their performances, which can encourage guests to loosen up and hit the dance fl oor.

Deejays also tend to travel with less equip-ment than bands, so they will take up less space in a party room.
