Kmart celebrates 1-year renewal 2 critical after fire Corinth store plans event after post-flood recovery anniversary

3 kids escape; fund under way to help family

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

It was worth the wait. Kmart is set to commemorate a year back in business on Saturday with plenty of activities for customers. “We had a real successful year and things are going to be even better in 2012,” said store manager Sam Woody. The store rebounded from the May flood of 2010 to reopen at 118 Highway 72 west on Feb. 21 of last year. Kmart observed being back in business with a grand reopening on March 5. “I want to thank the city of Corinth for the great support,” said Woody. Woody announced the store will show its appreciation with great deals. “There will be sales going on all week,” said the store manager. “We have great prices on all our patio furniture along with swings and trampolines.” Kmart also boasts the lowest prices in town on 35-pack of bottled water, costing only 10 cents a bottle. On Saturday, there will be

Coke 10K, MRHC raise youth fitness awareness BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

Helping kids get fit. Organizers of the Corinth CocaCola Class 10K are taking the challenge. Coke 10K and Magnolia Regional Health Center are taking the lead to increase youth fitness. “We know that a 10K is a lot for some kids, so we wanted to get something started that would get children fit and active year round,” said race co-coordinator Amy Smith about the 6.2-mile race. “If we can get kids active that is a gift that can stay with them for life.” Coke 10K is raising funds to provide grants for youth physical fitness programs conducted by organizations in Alcorn County with an official non-profit designation. Also eligible are elementary and middle schools of Alcorn County that provide an organized afterschool physical fitness program. All applicants must be an official 501(c)(3) organization, school, church, parent booster club, PTO, PTA, or similar entity. Initially, the grants will be only open to organizations in Corinth and Alcorn County. The first applications will be reviewed after this year’s Coke race. The May run has spotlighted physical fitness for over three decades. It has carried running to its highest level in the area. “We are just trying to promote exercise for children,” said Smith. “It’s out our way of giving back to the community.” “We are adding another age group for children this year,” added race co-coordinator Mona Lisa Grady. “This will add 10 more trophies, but more importantly we hope it encourages more kids to turn out for this premier event.” The need for physical activity among children has been well documented. Race organizers are usPlease see FITNESS | 2

The store went through nine months of repairs following the May 1 flood. Kmart -- which employees 60 -- was flooded with 24-36 inches of water, forcing them to basically rebuild from the ground up. Flooring was stripped and a new ceiling was added to give the building a new low-profile

appearance. “We take a lot of pride in our store and taking care of our customers,” said Woody. “We are trying to get better at both everyday.” Kmart is open 8 a.m. through 9 p.m. Monday-Saturday and from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Sunday.

BOONEVILLE — An early morning house fire that severely burned a Booneville couple has been ruled accidental. Fire broke out at the home of John and Rena Brumley on Main Street in downtown Booneville, just across the street from Booneville City Hall and Booneville’s main fire station, just before 5:30 a.m. Sunday. The Brumleys and three children also in the home were able to escape, but the couple suffered serious burns and other injuries. The adults were transferred to the Regional Medical Center (The Med) in Memphis, Tenn., where they were listed in critical condition late Monday afternoon. One of the children suffered a small burn to their foot and all three were treated at Baptist Memorial Hospital in Booneville for smoke inhalation and have been released.

Business purchases Shoney’s property BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

A new business is making plans to open in the former Shoney’s building. A buyer is nearly ready to close on the property with the intent to remodel and open it as a high-end pawn shop and retail business, according to a realtor. The Board of Aldermen had a special meeting Monday to look at a possible property issue that had arisen as the legal work for the property transaction gets hammered out. The board determined that the question involving the subdi-

vision ordinance did not apply to the property in question, allowing the sale to move forward. Although it sounds like an ordinance that would only affect residential property, City Attorney Wendell Trapp said it does not specifically differentiate between commercial and residential property. The old Shoney’s building and neighboring Captain D’s sit on a single piece of property, and the buyer would be purchasing only the Shoney’s portion. Realtor Jackie Coombs said the buyer plans to make a

substantial investment in improving the property. After many years of operation in Corinth, the Shoney’s restaurant closed last year. In other recent board actions: ■ Property cleanup actions continue on several lots. The board dismissed action on 1015 Main Street, which has seen satisfactory progress, and scheduled a public hearing for 5 p.m. March 20 on property at 213 North Parkway. The board moved to adjudicate at 1011 Main Street, where some junk cars have

been removed but an issue remains regarding damage to the curbing where cars were parked in the boulevard. The board continued 1811 Droke Road to the March 6 meeting. Building Inspector Philip Verdung said the owner has hired a contractor to clean up the property and demolish the structure. ■ The board approved the purchase of two vehicles for the police department. Because the familiar Crown Victoria is no longer available, the department has opted for the Dodge Charger.

Water district completes Bridge Creek work BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com

Another stretch of creek in Alcorn County is now better fit to keep the water moving. The Tombigbee River Valley Water Management District has been working for the past few weeks on Bridge Creek and expected to wrap up that project today. It is one of the priority drainage projects identified by the Bridge-Phillips-Elam Concurrent Drainage Districts in the aftermath of the May 2010 flood. Tombigbee’s work began Feb. 7 at the Kansas City Southern Railroad bridge over Bridge Creek and has been approaching the bridge on County Road 402. Elam Creek Drainage Commissioner Milton Sandy Jr. welcomed them as “drainage heroes.” “This is the only agency of the state or federal government that has actually done any work here in Corinth and Alcorn County,” he said. “They’ve been doing some damp, dirty, dangerous drainage work here in Alcorn County, and we appreciate it.” Mike Phillips, field supervisor for Tombigbee, said the biggest challenge of the work

Workers have advanced about 300 feet a day using a combination of heavy equipment and men with chainsaws on the banks.

we’ve got 20 miles of canals that were built back around the turn of the century,” he said. “In the county, we have close to 120 miles. If Tombigbee were to devote all of their resources to working just in Alcorn County, it would take Please see DRAINAGE | 2

SELMER, Tenn. — A new policy for hiring police officers, the purchase of new computer software and the appointment of three members to the industrial board were some items of business taken during the February meeting of the Selmer Mayor and Board of Aldermen. The aldermen voted 4-1 to adopt a resolution establishing a new hiring policy for hiring police officers. Those voting in favor of the resolution were Paul Simpson, John Smith, Edward Smith and John Finlayson. Chris Tull cast the lone no vote. Selmer Mayor David Robinson said the new policy would now include the vice mayor and mayor in the interview process of new police officers for the town.

lace said firefighters were on the scene, which is just a few feet away from the adjacent Banner Independent newspaper building, within minutes of being notified of the fire. The home was fully engulfed in flames by the time it was discovered and will be considered a total loss. One firefighter suffered a minor burn to his face while searching the home for possible

victims. Firefighters keep damage to a minimum on the metal newspaper building. Wallace said an investigator with the State Fire Marshal’s office was called in to assist in determining the cause of the fire. They have determined the fire started in a living room area of the home near both a wood heater and an LP gas heater, but the damage to the home will likely prevent them from de-

City Attorney Terry Abernathy reported the owners of a lot at the corner of 7th Street and Pharr Avenue would give the lot to the city and $1,500 to take care of a judgment lien by the city.

Follow Bible Teaching Some religious groups contend that Christ taught many things not recorded, and they base their claim upon John 21:25. But this refers to the things Christ did instead of different teachings he gave. These claims of extra teaching come through oral tradition. If these traditions be divine, why were they not included in the Bible? If the Bible is not a sufficient guide, why did God give it in the first place? Why give something to guide us that does not give us correct guidance? It is amazing as to what people will do to deny the authority of God. Shall we accept the religion of our father as an authority? Many have, even though their particular religion in the family may date back many generations to some distant relative who could not even read. This brings up a problem. Each person traced back seven generations has 128 parents. They were not all in agreement. Now, if you follow your ancestos, which one are you going to folllow? Paul followed his ancestors for a time. He was very zealous of the traditions of his father. Gal. 1:14. He later saw the need of changing. -Acts 9:1-18. He obeyed the gospel. There are those who regard their feelings as an authority and expect God to be pleased. Personal feelings vary from individual to individual. The same thing experienced by two persons produces different feelings. For example, two men get drunk. One feels melancholy while the other feels happy. We cannot depend on our feelings for correct guidance. Yet, many feel safe in so doing. Our feelings are affected by what we believe, whether true or false. Such a one loves not the truth, that they might be saved. God would send them strong delusions, that they should believe a lie. Such a one has no pleasure in righteousness. -Titus 2:10-12. We cannot accept the verdict of the majority as our standard in life. God forbides such - “Thou shall not follow a multitude to do evil.” -Exodus 23:2. In Noah’s day, the majority was lost. -Genesis 6:5-13. To do such, would be spiritual suicide. The Bible is our only reliable standard. It furnishes us unto every need. -2 Tim. 3:16-17. It is our source of true light. -Psalms 119:105. It is God’s word that will measure us in the day of judgment. -John 12:48. God has warned us, let’s follow it.

Corinth, Miss.

In debate, Romney was presidential BY DICK MORRIS AND EILEEN MCGANN In last Wednesday’s debate, Mitt Romney showed how he has grown through this contest and has developed into a presidential figure. By contrast, Rick Santorum’s performance was distinctly congressional. I found myself agreeing with Santorum but willing to follow Romney. In sync with Rick but trusting Mitt. Santorum’s replies were pedantic, tactical, and detailed. No inspiration there. He was like a lawyer advocating his case or a congressman battling for a bill. But Romney came across as a real leader — charismatic, bold, strong, and, ultimately, inspiring. One could see Romney as the leader of his country. As for Santorum, one could see only a politician with whom one often agrees. I have been increasingly worried that Santorum seems unable — or unwilling — to make the pivot from social to economic issues. Beyond his advocacy of tax breaks for domestic manufacturing — a short-term fix until automation renders the issue irrelevant — there is no economic policy there, just a collection of votes in yesterday’s Senate. In trying to win Michigan and Arizona, Santorum is taking shelter behind his social positions, coasting on the momentum of his base. But in the process, he’s making himself a very vulnerable target for Obama, who would love to obscure the economic issues and focus on the social questions of abortion, stem cell research and, incredibly, contraception. By embracing a 20 percent tax reduction for all brackets, Romney has begun to lay out his conservative economic vision on a more fundamental level than simply calling for the repeal of Obama’s programs and the reduction of his deficit and debt. Romney needs to do more to sketch out his affirmative vision for recovery and prosperity. Newt Gingrich was like a color commentator on the process, injecting interesting, amusing, and often profound observations about civil service, education schools, and the staff of the Homeland Security Department. Gingrich built up his vote share with his creativity and insight, but every vote he gets comes from Santorum, not from Romney. But neither Gingrich nor Santorum seemed presidential. I felt that should Gingrich meet Obama in a debate, he could critique him more easily than defeat him. Santorum could out-argue Obama. But Romney came across as one who could present a credible alternative and summon people to follow. This debate, decisive for Santorum, is a clear win, in my mind, for Romney. If, on the strength of last Wednesday’s strong performance, Romney wins Michigan and Arizona, he has a decided advantage on Super Tuesday. There is but one more debate to go before those 14 primaries or caucuses are held. Should Romney sweep them, this race is over. Dick Morris, former advisor to the Clinton administration, is a commentator and author of “Rewriting History.” He is also a columnist for the New York Post and The Hill. His wife, Eileen McGann, is an attorney and consultant.

Only 2.6 percent of poor children report stunted growth. Poor kids in America are, on average, an inch taller and 10 pounds heavier than the youth of the Greatest Generation that won World War II. In fiscal year 2011, the U.S. government spent $910 billion on 70 meanstested programs, which comes to an average of $9,000 per year on every lower-income person in the United States. Among the major programs from which the poor receive benefits are Temporary Assistance to Needy Families, the Earned Income Tax Credit, Supplemental Security Income, food stamps, the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) food program, Medicaid, public housing, low-income energy assistance and the Social Service Block Grant. Children of the poor are educated free, K-12, and eligible for preschool Head Start, and Perkins Grants, Pell Grants and student loans for college. Lyndon Johnson told us this was the way to build a Great Society. Did we? Federal and state spending on social welfare is approaching $1 trillion a year, $17 trillion since the Great Society was launched, not to mention private charity. But we have witnessed a headlong descent into social decomposition. Half of all children born to women under 30 in America now are illegitimate. Three in 10 white

children are born out of wedlock, as are 53 percent of Hispanic babies and 73 percent of black babies. Rising right along with the illegitimacy rate is the drug-use rate, the dropout rate, the crime rate and the incarceration rate. The family, cinder block of society, is disintegrating, and along with it, society itself. Writes Rector, “The welfare system is more like a ‘safety bog’ than a safety net.” Heritage scholars William Beach and Patrick Tyrrell put Rector’s numbers in perspective: “Today… 67.3 million Americans — from college students to retirees to welfare beneficiaries — depend on the federal government for housing, food, income, student aid or other assistance. ... The United States reached another milestone in 2010. For the first time in history, half the population pays no federal income taxes.” The 19th century statesman John C. Calhoun warned against allowing government to divide us into “tax-payers and taxconsumers.” This, he said, “would give rise to two parties and to violent conflicts and struggles between them, to obtain the control of the government.” We are there, Mr. Calhoun, we are there. Patrick J. Buchanan is the author of “Suicide of a Superpower: Will America Survive to 2025?”

more pragmatic over time. After Nikita Khrushchev renounced Josef Stalin, it didn’t believe that war with its enemies was imminent. Iran’s religio-ideological fire is still burning hot. A highly ideological leadership with a sense of desperate urgency is the enemy of deterrence. In 1941, Dean Acheson rightly said: “No rational Japanese could believe an attack on us could result anything but disaster.” Except the Japanese believed that they only had two choices: getting squeezed out of China by the U.S., or launching a risky war. Even in the Cold War, deterrence almost failed. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, the airstrike and invasion pushed by the Joint Chiefs of Staff might well have unwittingly prompted a nuclear exchange. The defense secretary at the time, the late Bob McNamara, maintained that “we lucked out.” The Israelis can be forgiven for not feeling very lucky.

ter Iran goes nuclear? The Iranian regime is factionalized, and it is sure to be the most fanatical elements that control the nukes. It is also prone to bouts of popular unrest threatening its existence. If the regime ever believes it is going down, national martyrdom might look gloriously alluring. In March 1945, Adolf Hitler gave his infamous Nero Decree, essentially calling for the destruction of Germany. After the first U.S. attack on Hiroshima, the Japanese war minister mused about how wonderful it would be if his nation were destroyed “like a beautiful flower.” It is in this tradition that former Iranian President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani said that “even one nuclear bomb inside Israel will destroy everything. However, it will only harm the Islamic world. It is not irrational to contemplate such an eventuality.” On his own perverse terms, Rafsanjani’s reasoning is unassailable. He’s just another “rational actor.” Rich Lowry is editor of the National Review. He can be reached via e-mail: comments.lowry@nationalreview.com.

State Briefs Runway construction halted at Jackson airport JACKSON — Mississippi’s busiest passenger airport is down to one usable runway because a $13.3 million construction project is at a standstill, already eight months behind schedule. Completion of runway surfacing at Jackson-Medgar Wiley Evers International Airport was expected in June 2011, but a dispute with the contractor has halted the work. Airport CEO Dirk Vanderleest said the contract with Rifenburg Construction Inc. of Durham, N.C., was terminated and is in arbitration over the quality of asphalt the company was using. Vanderleest said a request for bids is planned in April to complete the job. Rifenburg attorney Mark Herbert said the airport used quality tests not covered in the contract. He said Rifenburg wanted arbitration so an independent party could determine whether the asphalt met contractual standards. The closed runway has caused air traffic controllers to launch departures between arrivals instead of using one runway for planes coming in and the other for departing aircraft, said Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Arlene Salac.

“This situation causes a more complex operation, but FAA controllers are trained to accommodate these types of challenges and the operation remains safe,” Salac said. Another challenge is that the open runway has what is known as an ILS, an instrument landing system for poor weather conditions, only in one direction and a global positioning system must be used for planes landing from the other direction. Both systems help guide pilots, but some older commercial aircraft are only equipped with the ILS system, and can’t use the GPS approach. Vanderleest said there was one occasion in which a Southwest Airlines flight was diverted to New Orleans because of that, though the flight later returned to Jackson. Southwest did not immediately respond to a message. Other major airlines — Delta and American — said the closed runway has not caused major problems for them so far. The construction shutdown is having an impact on taxpayers. One of Mississippi’s key Air National Guard units is based at the end of the closed runway, and pilots must taxi further in massive C-17 Globemasters, burning extra fuel. Guard officials said the added cost is relatively small because getting

the big planes moving is what burns up large quantities of fuel, not keeping them rolling down the taxiway. Vanderleest said the closed runway has been “more of an inconvenience than a problem,” but he said its needs to be completed as soon as possible. The other runway needs resurfacing as well, but that can’t be done until the first one is finished. He said the last overlay project was done in the 1990s and the life cycle of a runway is usually 10-15 years.

Lafayette looking at alternative fuels OXFORD — Lafayette County will take a look at switching to alternative fuels for some of its vehicles. The Oxford Eagle reports that Supervisor Mike Pickens asked County Administrator Joseph Johnson to find out the cost of such a fuel-conversion project. Pickens also wants the county working with the University of Mississippi and city of Oxford in a joint plan to use natural gas. Pickens says natural gas would cost about a third of what the county is paying for gasoline now. “We have a surplus of natural gas in this country and all the things that the politicians talk about what we need to

do, we can do here locally,” he said. Oxford Mayor Pat Patterson said the city has also considered alternative fuels but has not yet decided to move forward. Patterson said the Oxford Police Department had considered changing to natural gas last year, but the issue of having less space in the smaller cars was a problem.

AmeriCorps expects 166 in Vicksburg VICKSBURG — AmeriCorps is welcoming 166 volunteers to Vicksburg.

That brings the total of NCCC members at the Southern Region campus to 238.

Groups say deal reached in lawsuit JACKSON — A proposed settlement of a lawsuit would prohibit minors in Mississippi from being held in solitary confinement and would require corrections officials to move youth out of a privately run prison where there were allegations of sexual and physical abuse. The 2010 lawsuit claimed that some guards at Walnut Grove Youth Correctional Facility smuggled drugs into the prison, had sex with some inmates, assaulted others and put some in solitary confinement. The lawsuit was filed in November 2010 by the Southern Poverty Law Center, the American Civil Liberties Union and Jackson attorney Robert McDuff, It also claimed inmates weren’t given proper medical care or educational opportunities, among other things. Walnut Grove Youth Correctional Facility opened in 2001 in Leake County and holds inmates ages 13-22 who were minors convicted as adults. It’s operated by GEO Group Inc., the second largest private prison company in the country.

Zoo poo for sale—pints or gallons Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Riverbanks Zoo and Garden in Columbia, S.C., is offering lucky gardeners a chance to put in orders for its famed poop produced by elephants, giraffes and zebras. Zoo spokeswoman Su-

san O’Cain says one cubic yard of the manure will be available for $43 a load. The manure sells out quickly, and each order is limited to two loads. Zoo animals produce about 1,500 pounds of manure every day. For those interested in small

amounts, pint-size and two-gallon buckets are placed at zoo entrances throughout the year. O’Cain says the poop will be available for pickup on March 23. Orders may be placed through www.riverbanks. org .

Scientists see red on cuts of Mars missions BY SETH BORENSTEIN AND ALICIA CHANG Associated Press

WASHINGTON — NASA is making a cosmic U-turn on the road to Mars. For the past two decades, the U.S. space agency has been practically obsessed with Mars. It has hardly missed an opportunity about every two years to fling robotic spacecraft at the red planet. This summer, the most high-tech rover ever, Curiosity, will land near the Martian equator in search of the chemical building blocks of life. The more scientists study Mars, the closer they get to answering whether microbial life once existed there, a clue to the ultimate question: Are we alone? Presidents have long talked about sending astronauts to Mars. Two years ago, President Barack Obama stood in Kennedy Space Center and said it was more of a priority than going to the moon and wanted astronauts there by the mid2030s. But robotic Mars missions slated for 2016 and

2018 were cut from the president’s new budget proposal, even though NASA has spent $64 million on early designs with the European Space Agency for the two missions. The most ambitious Mars flight yet and one the National Academy of Sciences endorsed as the No. 1 solar system priority — a plan to grab Martian rocks and soil and bring them back to Earth — is on indefinite hold. “We’re really at a crossroads,” NASA planetary sciences chief Jim Green said. NASA will skip the 2016 launch opportunity and if officials are lucky, they hope still to salvage something relatively cheap for 2018, when Mars passes closest to Earth. But it won’t be the large rockcollecting mission that scientists had been counting on. What a new mission for 2018 would be is still not clear even to NASA senior officials. To scientists, the message from the White House seems simple: Bye-bye, Mars. On Monday, upset Mars researchers are meeting

with NASA officials to figure out how to reboot the program beyond the 2013 mission. If Obama’s budget sails through as outlined, “in essence, it is the end of the Mars program,” said Phil Christensen, a Mars researcher at Arizona State University. It’s like “we’ve just flown Apollo 10 and now we’re going to cancel the Apollo program when we’re one step from landing,” he said. It’s not that NASA officials don’t think Mars is worth exploring further; it’s just that they don’t think they can afford it anymore. Obama has proposed cutting 10 other federal agency budgets this year including Defense, Homeland Security and Education. NASA’s 0.3 percent budget cut was among the smallest. In fact, the $28.3 billion cuts to the Defense Department dwarf NASA’s entire $17.7 spending plan for 2013. “We’re trying to identify a way to (explore Mars) in these very difficult fiscal times,” NASA Administrator Charles Bolden said last week at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., the epicenter of Mars research. Researchers are partly to blame because they promise to do a mission cheaply and when they get approval, costs soar, said Alan Stern, a former NASA sciences chief. He called it “committing suicide in slow motion” and said it’s been happening in the Mars program since 2006. An even more over-budget space telescope forced more cuts to NASA science. The Curiosity mission costs $2.5 billion — almost $1 billion over budget.

Investor Pulse

Investors pulled money out of U.S. stock mutual funds in January for the ninth straight month. $10 billion

Too much, too soon?

The stock market started 2012 at a fast clip. The S&P 500 is already up 8.7 percent, and has climbed an eyebrow-raising 24 percent since October. Stocks are on such a smooth, strong climb that a recent national survey of individual investors reported that their outlook was the most bullish it has been since January 2011. They’ve been comforted because the Dow has not had a 100-point loss this year, after having 51 in 2011. What’s more, the unemployment rate is at its lowest level in three years. Yet all the positive signs are giving some investors pause. The Dow has been flirting with closing above 13,000 for the first time since May 2008, but has yet to do so. “Investors have gotten a bit too complacent and maybe a bit too optimistic over the near term,” says James Meyer, chief investment officer of Tower Bridge Advisors. He doesn’t expect a huge downturn, but he expects stocks to take a breather. Tom Villalta is a mutual fund manager who often sees bad news as an investing opportunity. He bet big in 2010 on bank stocks, for example. But he says he’s not worried. If investors were complacent, he says, they would be pumping money into stock mutual funds. Instead they’re pulling out.

DreamWorks' earnings

Home price monitor

Its Oscar-nominated movie “Puss in Boots,” has earned more than $500 million, but will that make a big difference? DreamWorks Animation SKG reports fourth-quarter results today. The spin-off from "Shrek" debuted last November, however, analysts are expecting a smaller quarterly profit compared to the same period a year earlier.

The Standard & Poor's/Case-Shiller home price index for December is out today. The index posted three consecutive monthly declines through November, suggesting that many homeowners are not yet reaping the benefits from some signs of an improving housing market.

Feeling good? Economists think that consumers are feeling more optimistic. They’re expecting the Conference Board’s index on consumers' confidence for February to rise to 63. That's still well short of the 90 or better reading that reflects a healthy economy.

State Tournament New season, new class: Corinth back in title game BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

JACKSON — One year and one reclassification later, the Corinth Warriors are back in the state championship. Corinth got 34 points out of its post players and hit just enough free throws down the stretch to hold off Bay St. Louis 58-55 in the second of four games Monday in the Mississippi High School Activities Association’s State Basketball Tournament. Corinth (29-5) will face the

Amanda Elzy-Laurel winner at 8:30 p.m. Friday in the Class 4A Boys’ championship. The Warriors, playing in the Mississippi Coliseum for the third time in four years, lost to Booneville in last year’s Class 3A title game. “I’m proud for the guys,” said Corinth Head Coach Keith Greene. “They’ve grown together as the season has gone along.” The Warriors fell behind late in the first quarter and

found themselves down 2419 at the break against an under-sized but scappy Tiger squad. “We were told that they would play some of the better man defense we would see all year and they guarded us well,” said Greene. “They limited our space and were able to get under us in the post due to their size.” Corinth came out of the break and outscored Bay High 21-10 in the third. A Jazz Garner steal and bucket

gave Corinth it’s first lead since the closing seconds of the first. The junior’s threeball at the 2:02 mark of the third put the Warriors on top for good. “We are mirror images of each other — we both play man,” said Greene. “I told them at the half that we needed to match (Bay’s) intensity.” Deione Weeks, who had his third double-double in the Please see CORINTH | 9

Corinth downed Bay High 58-55 to advance to the Class 4A State Championship round.

Westbrook aims to carry his weight BY R.B. FALLSTROM Associated Press

JUPITER, Fla. — Former NL Cy Young Award winner Chris Carpenter is on track to be the St. Louis Cardinals’ opening day starter, former 20-game winner Adam Wainwright is back from reconstructive elbow surgery, Jaime Garcia is a top lefthander and underrated Kyle Lohse led the staff in victories and ERA.

Then there’s the slimmer, trimmer Jake Westbrook. The 34-year-old sinkerballer was inconsistent last season, then virtually unused during the postseason. He shed 20 pounds at the team’s urging and wants to show he can be counted upon. “I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed,” Westbrook said. “If that opportunity comes about again, I want to have the year where they have

confidence to throw me out there. I have a lot of motivation, especially as I’m getting older, to get back to where I’m capable of pitching.” Westbrook’s 12-9 record was accompanied by a 4.66 ERA and 1.51 WHIP (walks plus hits per inning), and he was bothered by plantar fasciitis on both feet. He was left off the roster for the division series and NL championship series and was the unlikely

World Series Game 6 winner after working an inning of relief in the Cardinals’ wild comeback victory over the Rangers. Two weeks with no carbohydrates melted 14 pounds, and nutrition along with an altered training regimen took care of the rest. “It was club encouraged,” manager Mike Matheny said.

CORINTH: Warriors forced 20 turnovers CONTINUED FROM 8

last four games, started a 5-0 quarterending run with a put back. Two free throws by Desmin Harris gave CHS a 40-34 advantage after three complete. Corinth took its biggest lead at 42-35 on a Kendrick Williams stickback with 7:35 left. Bay would counter with a 7-2 run — including five by Taylor Singleton — and pull to within two with 5:31 remaining. Weeks, who tallied a team-high 16, picked up his third and fourth fouls in the Bay run and Greene had to use a timeout to get the senior off the court with 5:21 remaining. With Weeks on the bench, Corinth feed Raheem Sorrell in the post and the sophomore answered with two straight buckets to push the lead back to six. After Bay scored four straight, the Warriors looked to Sorrell again and he ended the run with another inside deuce. Sorrell’s last bucket, his fourth in a 3:15 span, gave Corinth a six-point advantage with 1:45 remaining. The big man scored eight of his 14 points in the fourth and did all his damage on just 10 shots. “They weren’t coming to me a lot, but when they did I just used my height advantage to either score or draw a foul,” said Sorrell. Bay made it a one-possession game twice in the final 41 seconds, but Corinth hit enough free throws — 3-of6 — to advance. After missing just 10 of 44 tries over its final two North State Tournament games, Corinth missed 9 of its 16 tries on Monday. Corinth finished 24-of-51 from the floor and 3-of-9 from deep. Secondleading scorer Eric Richardson was limited to three points on six shots. Bay shot 50 percent, hitting 20-of40. Corinth forced the Tigers into 20 turnovers — 11 in the third when the Warriors held a 21-10 advantage on the boards.

WESTBROOK: ‘The guy’s an animal, that’s the guy we want people following’ CONTINUED FROM 8

“He looks good. Obviously, he’s lost some weight but he’s also put on some muscle mass, so that’s a great combination.” Westbrook, who’s entering the final year of a two-year, $16 million deal, said he’s down to 210 pounds for the first time in perhaps a dozen years and feeling a lot lighter on his feet. He’s hoping it translates to an increase in confidence, and a better bottom line. “If something’s bothering you, you’re not focusing as much as you possibly can on what you’re trying to do. As I’m getting older, I want to give myself every opportunity to prolong my career, and I don’t want to have any regrets that I didn’t do every-

thing possible.” The other spots are so solid that general manager John Mozeliak declared early in camp that the Cardinals out of the competition for free agent Roy Oswalt. Carpenter was just 11-9 last year, but won 10 of his last 12 decisions after struggling with command the first two months or so. Then he was 4-0 in the postseason, and beat the Rangers on short rest in Game 7 of the World Series. At 37, he’s been setting the tone in spring training. Matheny said the opening day nod is not official but added that’s the plan. “The guy’s an animal,” Matheny said. “That’s the guy we want people following.” Wainwright totaled 39 victories in 2009-10 and ap-

pears ready to rejoin Carpenter as twin aces right around the one-year anniversary of the operation that reduced him to cheerleader throughout 2011. Though he’s had no issues and is on the same program as the rest of the pitchers, the Cardinals are wary of overloading the 6-foot-7 right-hander too soon. Mozeliak said at the start of camp that he couldn’t envision Wainwright pitching 200 innings. Matheny said Monday that Wainwright was in “uncharted territory.” Garcia was third in the NL Rookie of the Year balloting in 2010 and has won 27 games his first two seasons, flashing such promise that he earned a four-year contract last summer. Lohse was 14-8 with a 3.39 ERA last season, finally mov-

ing past a forearm injury that led to ineffectiveness for 11⁄2 seasons. Then he survived rampant trade rumors over the winter, and gets the ball for the spring opener March 5 against the Marlins. “There must not have been enough other things to talk about. Like people leaving the team,” Lohse said, referring to departed Albert Pujols. Westbrook won 15 games twice and 14 once with the Indians from 2004-06 before running into elbow woes. He estimates he throws the sinker 70 percent of the time, and if he keeps it down it compensates for a high 80s mph fastball. “If my ball was straight I wouldn’t be pitching now,” he said. “I rely on that sinker, that movement. I live and die by it.”

the same thrifty way that enabled you to pay off that mortgage. And while you’re at it, be prepared to share the tips and habits that enabled you to achieve this wonderful success. Who knows? Your party might educate and inspire. — I’D LIKE AN INVITATION DEAR I’D LIKE: I was surprised at the number of readers who were fired up over my answer to “Thrilled� about burning the mortgage. Most said that this is a milestone that should be celebrated. My readers comment: DEAR ABBY: I think it’s great to throw a mortgage-burning party to celebrate paying off a home mortgage. Today we go overboard not to offend. True friends would be happy when something good happens and not jealous. How self-

centered is that attitude? People need to start feeling happy for the success of others. — LORI IN GIG HARBOR, WASH. DEAR ABBY: I believe “Thrilled� and her husband should have their mortgage-burning party. Achievements like this should be celebrated. Too often in our country people have piled on debt they couldn’t afford and made decisions purely to keep up with “the Joneses.� By sharing their success story, including any struggles they may have overcome, they can be an inspiration for the loved ones in their lives to follow. — DEBBIE IN THE SOUTHWEST DEAR ABBY: Please advise “Thrilled� not to actually burn the mortgage. In California the lender has to provide a

release document in the form of a Deed of Reconveyance or Satisfaction of Mortgage that must be recorded with the county recorder’s office in order to remove the lien of the loan from the chain of title for the house. If the lender doesn’t record it, then the borrower must do so — copies don’t count; originals do. If “Thrilled� decided to sell the house and the release has not been recorded, or if she doesn’t have the original, it could delay the sale by months. — LINDA IN SAN FRANCISCO Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

Horoscopes by Holiday BY HOLIDAY MATHIS On this day in 1883, the first vaudeville theater opened, beginning a tradition of entertainment that still can be readily seen in most modern entertainment. The lazy feel of a void-of-course Taurus moon could prompt you to take in more than the usual amount of passive amusement and enjoy it to the fullest extent. ARIES (March 21-April 19). You tend to take responsibility, bring in the money, put food on the table and keep relationships in good standing. What would you do if you found out that it is also your job to have fun? TAURUS (April 20May 20). You’ll be reminded of an interesting truth: Events don’t have to be planned to be a success. The spontaneous twists, goofs and challenges make things better. Your good time hinges on an element of surprise. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The pursuit of selfknowledge is often hap-

pening on a subconscious level for you, but today it will be foremost on your mind. The better you can understand yourself the better you can create emotional closeness with others. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You are only ambitious to a degree. You know when you are content, and you stop there. That’s a gift. So many people suffer because they can’t recognize when enough is enough. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You feel focused and want to stay on task. But something will happen to interrupt and tempt you. Opportunities for pleasure must be seized. Otherwise, they come less often. If you don’t enjoy your life, who will? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You want things to go your way, but you also realize the possibility that there’s something even better that might occur if you remain open-minded. It takes maturity to stay flexible. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct.

23). You’ll get what you didn’t expect. Don’t write this off as some kind of mistake. Be resilient. Discover the value in life’s odd offerings. And if there is no apparent value, consider that there might be a message or lesson instead. SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). “Posers� abound. People who can talk a good game don’t fool you, though. You actually walk the walk, and you know the difference. Others won’t be so savvy, and you may have to intervene on their behalf. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Many valuable discoveries have been made by chance rather than contemplation. However, chance favors the actively contemplative, as well as those taking risks and putting their names into the hat several times. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19). You’re in awe of people who have a talent that you do not possess. Others are in awe of you for the exact same reason,

though you are so used to your own talents that you may not even see them as anything remarkable. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). You’ll lead the action. Even though you have a strong sense of discovery, it will take you a few minutes to warm up to new situations. Take the time you need to get comfortable. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). No one gets through life by being good at one thing and one thing only. Your efforts to diversify will serve you well. You’ll be brave enough to

try new things and wise enough to realize early on what’s for you and what isn’t. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Feb. 28). You go into the year with a strong, determined attitude. In April, a softness takes its place as loved ones strike a chord in your compassionate heart. Your warmth inspires commitments.

Big catch tip — choose the right spinnerbait The first lure the average bass fisherman thinks about tying on in late winter or early spring is a spinnerbait. This lure is very versatile in how it can be used, and is known for catching hefty sized bass that are in transition between deep water haunts and shallow spawning grounds. The lure can be fished with a slow but steady retrieve, reeled fast near the surface, or a stop and go action can be used to probe the depths as the lure comes by what appears to be fish holding structure. Spinnerbaits come in an assortment of sizes, colors, and blade configurations. The trick, though, is selecting the ones that are best suited for the type of water conditions and the lake that’s being fished.

Small spinnerbaits, onequarter of an ounce up to threeare David eights, good for Green t a r g e t i n g Outdoors finicky bass, whether it’s because of crystal clear water or the passing of a stiff cold front. These lures are excellent choices for fishing impoundments such as a small watershed lake or farm pond. Big spinnerbaits on the other hand, one-half ounce or larger, tend to work better on larger and more aggressive bass, and they can also be cast farther which makes it easier to make a subtle presentation under clear water conditions.

Fishing plus-sized spinnerbaits over deep water offshore structure in larger impoundments often produces good results. White or chartreuse skirts are always good color schemes to try. White implicates the color of baitfish and chartreuse adds a mix of visibility. Preferably, I’d use more white in the latter stages of winter and then go towards chartreuse upon spring green-up. But these colors alone are not the only ones that will work under certain conditions. Consideration should be given to the amount of sunlight penetrating the water surface and the overall murkiness of the water. Light colors tend to work better on bright days and dark ones on dark days. Off colors like red, orange, or purple tend to produce well

in stained water. You can add a touch of flare to your spinnerbait by having the head a different color than the skirt. For instance, a spinnerbait with a reddish colored head matched with the skirt of choice is a personal favorite of many avid bass anglers. The color of the blades used can also make a big difference. As a rule of thumb, use a chrome type of color on brighter days or in clear water and bronze or gold shades on cloudy days or under murky water conditions. Spinnerbaits with painted blades have their place in the tackle-box, too. Some of the best luck I’ve ever had on Pickwick was with a spinnerbait that had a twoblade configuration; one was orange and the other, chartreuse.

When choosing a spinnerbait, a decision must be made on the type of bladed bait and whether to go tandem or use a single blade configuration. There are four types of blades to choose from but most prefer using the Colorado and the willowleaf. The Colorado, which is almost completely rounded, churns out more water making it easier for the bass to locate through the vibrations, whereas the willowleaf is best for presenting fast, flashy presentations when bass appear more aggressive in clearer water. A single Colorado blade works well in deeper water for a slower presentation, while tandem blades, regardless of the type, work nicely when more flash is needed to get a reaction strike.

The unusually warm winter has allowed many bass fishermen to get an earlier than normal start on fishing, and according to what I’ve heard, it appears the bass fishing on Pickwick is going to be super once again. Though I can’t verify it, rumor has it there’s been one caught recently weighing over 14 pounds., which is phenomenal for this area, and a couple more that weighed in at more than 10 pounds.

Emergency aid fund will support disaster recovery BY JAMES L. CUMMINGS Conservation Corner

Thanks to the efforts of U.S. Senator Thad Cochran, Mississippi will receive a total of $2.36 million in funding for the Emergency Forest Restoration Program (EFRP). “A number of recovery

and restoration projects in Mississippi have been on hold due to a lack of funding. Mississippians survived devastating tornadoes last year, and this U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) program can be useful in restoring lands and natural resources,â€? Cochran said.

“I am pleased that these emergency funds can now be used to implement projects that will help communities like Smithville get back on their feet,� he added. The USDA Farm Service Agency administers the EFRP, and the $2.36 million allocation to Mis-
