Talk heats up over student releases

BY ZACK STEEN zsteen@dailycorinthian.com

Alcorn County school board members took sides on Monday over a somewhat heated discussion regarding out of district student releases.

The Alcorn School District’s state funding is set to be cut more than $700,000 next year due to a decrease in average daily attendance, and Superintendent Larry B. Mitchell is blaming the district’s some-

times weak policy governing transfers.

“Our daily average attendance is down and our student enrollment has decreased from previous years well over 100 kids. I think we need to begin

working to reduce the number of kids that leave our district,” said Mitchell. “There are all kinds of reasons and excuses, and I’m willing to hear them and in turn release them or not release them if the board choos-

es for me to do that.”

No changes were made to the policy on Monday, even though two board members agreed there should be.

Civitans sold 600 steaks at

the location in 2014.

“We average about 400-450 sold each year,” added Wood.

The meal consists of an 8-ounce ribeye, baked beans, cole slaw and Texas Toast.

“You can’t buy a steak and everything we have for that price anywhere else,” said Wood.

Some of the projects which benefit from the sale include youth baseball teams, the Lighthouse Foundation and four college scholarships for high school seniors. The club also is a partner with Belk in the Belk’s Children Day which helps 10-12 underprivileged youngsters in Alcorn County during Christmas.

Board members Mary Coleman and Laura Studdard agreed with Mitchell and said student transfer requests should not be granted because its convenient for parents.

“I think we need very serious consideration for everybody (requesting transfer), and not just rubber stamp everyone who comes across the desk,” said Studdard, the interim district 2 board member. “I’ve heard people say we (the board) think these kids are nothing more than dollar signs and that’s not true, but student enrollment is how we get our money, and figuring out how to keep kids in our district is very important.”

Board president Randy Wilbanks and board members Lamar Walker and Russ Nash disagreed with making policy changes.

school,” said Nash.

A frustrated Mitchell reiterated the decision to close the two elementary schools was a must.

“I have said all along that we need to upgrade our facilities – I’ve said it a hundred times. What would we do now with this budget cut if we hadn’t decided to merge these schools ... we would be laying off teachers this very minute. We felt like we would save $800,000 by merging the schools, but now with the budget cut of $726,000 we’ll have to use that money in our regular budget,” Mitchell told the board.

He added, “I think we need to take some steps to prevent those folks who don’t have a legitimate reason (to transfer) from being able to.”

The transfer policy currently states that out of district transfers are granted if a parent is a

“I have always felt like a parent should decide what school they want their child to go to,” said Wilbanks. “We have been talking for years about the reasons why a student leaves the district. I want to find out what those reasons are and fix them so others down the road maybe won’t leave for the same reason.”

He added, “there is already enough negative talk about the Alcorn School District. If we start telling parents ‘no, they can’t send their child elsewhere,’ it’s only going to get worse.”

Walker and Nash said since parents weren’t given a choice when the board voted to close Rienzi and Glen schools, their choice to send their children to another school district shouldn’t be taken away as well.

Tishomingo Co. Girl Scout organizes installation of swing TISHOMINGO COUNTY — A Tishomingo County girl scout is helping those confined to a wheelchair become possible to enjoy a playground swing.

Tishomingo County High School senior Brandi Smith organized a non-profit organization, “From Wheels to Thrills” to help earn her Girl Scout Gold Award.

Smith helped make it possible for wheelchairaccessible swings to be installed on playgrounds throughout Tishomingo County.

Smith held fundraisers and asked local businesses to donate to the cause.

AAA State of Play specializes in handicapaccessible playground equipment and was the source for the swings, which cost more than $2,000 to purchase and install.

The first handicapaccessible swing was recently installed at Tishomingo County State Park. The purchase and install of the swing was made possible by Smith.

A driver flagged down a Tennessee State Trooper at the intersection of Highway 57 and Tippah Street and said the passenger in his car, Hoyle, had been shot, according to the release.

Hardeman County deputies and Grand Junction police officers also responded and found the victim to be deceased.

An investigation led agents to identify Jenkins as being responsible for the shooting.

Jenkins is charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and possession of a firearm during commission of a dangerous felony, according to the release.

He is being held in the Hardeman County Jail.

Police discover how fugitive stayed free

Suspect arrested in deadly accident

TUPELO — Law enforcement explained Monday how a fugitive on the run for about nine months was able to avoid capture, according to reports.

Victor Parker was found Saturday in woods around Auburn in Lee County. He was sought for a shooting that happened last year in the Lake Piomingo area.

Parker is charged with aggravated assault with a deadly weapon because he is accused of shooting someone who was getting his mail.

Sheriff Jim Johnson said Parker avoided capture because of his survivalist skills. According to Johnson, Parker built a tent in the woods with a battery hookup for lights. He also had four other hideouts with secret walls and floors.

Parker’s wife and two in laws are charged with helping Parker avoid capture.

DECATUR, Tenn. — Bradley County officials say they have arrested the suspect in a Meigs County crash that killed four people.

Media outlets report that 34-year-old John Wesley Bennett is accused of driving a dump truck that lost its trailer on Highway 58 on Friday afternoon. The Tennessee Highway Patrol says the trailer then hit two cars, killing four people.

Authorities in Bradley County confirm that Bennett has been arrested and is in the Bradley County jail. They haven’t commented on potential charges.

The victims of the crash were identified as 38-year-old Andrew Blackford, 37-yearold Samantha Norris, 36-year-old Christopher Denton and 62-year-old Paula Stevens.

Tupelo Tupelo splash pad work on schedule TUPELO — Construction at a new splash pad at the city’s Theron Nichols Park has begun on time, according to The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal.

If construction continues on pace, it should be open for use by the Fourth of July, said Tupelo Chief Operations Officer Don Lewis.

Infrastructure needed to supply water to the site has been mostly installed, according to Lewis. That means the next step should be the construction of the actual pad itself.

In March, the City Council selected CIG Contractors to handle the project.

Counting construction costs as well as engineering and design fees, the splash pad could end up costing the city almost $580,000.

That means the project will end costing more

Memphis Interim police head applying for position MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Officials say interim Memphis Police Director Michael Rallings is applying for the permanent position.

According to The Commercial Appeal Mayor Jim Strickland said Monday that he asked Rallings to apply for the permanent job, and Rallings agreed.

Strickland said Rallings’ application wouldn’t affect the national search for a new director. The city is paying the International Association of Chiefs of Police $30,000 to $40,000 to conduct the search, which Strickland said is still on track to conclude in July or August.

Strickland said he is not calling off the search, but he asked Rallings to apply “as part of the process.”

Rallings, who has been with the department since he joined the police academy in 1990, succeeded Toney Armstrong earlier this year.

Corinth, Miss.

Dry rot in Academia Jason Riley has now joined the long and distinguished list of people invited – and then disinvited — to give a talk on a college campus, in this case Virginia Tech.

Mr. Riley is a Senior Fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a columnist for the Wall Street Journal and, perhaps most relevantly, author of a very insightful book titled “Please Stop Helping Us: How Liberals Make It Harder for Blacks to Succeed.”

In short, Jason Riley’s views on race are different from the Thomas views that prevail on most colSowell lege campuses. At one time, 50 Columnist years ago or earlier, exposing students to a different viewpoint was considered to be a valuable part of their education. But that was before academia – and the education system in general – became virtually a monopoly of the political left.

Today one can literally go from kindergarten to becoming a graduate student seeking a Ph.D., without ever hearing a vision of the world that conflicts with the vision of the left.

Conservative critics who object on grounds that the views of the left are wrong miss the point. Regardless of whose views become a monopoly, education suffers. John Stuart Mill understood this back in the middle of the 19th century.

As a young Marxist in college during the 1950s heyday of the anti-Communist crusade led by Sen. Joseph McCarthy, I had more freedom to express my views in class, without fear of retaliation, than conservative students have on many campuses today.

After being invited by conservative students to give talks at various colleges, Jason Riley has then been surprised at how little those conservative students have said during the question-and-answer periods after these talks.

A well-known Harvard professor, for example, recently referred to Justice Clarence Thomas by remarking: “He’ll say he pulled himself up by his own bootstraps. I say I was in the right place at the right time.”

It so happens that I first met Clarence Thomas back in 1978, when he was a young lawyer in Missouri. In all these years, I have never heard him say anything even resembling what has been blithely attributed to him by this Harvard professor.

On the contrary, Justice Thomas has attributed his good fortune to his grandfather who raised him, especially in his autobiography, “My Grandfather’s Son.” When he was sworn in as a Justice of the Supreme Court, he brought the nuns who had taught him in school, down in Georgia, to the ceremony in Washington, at his own expense, to let them know that what they had done for him was appreciated, and had not been in vain.

There is no reason why our Harvard professor has to agree with Justice Thomas’ judicial philosophy or his social views. But, as the late Daniel Patrick Moynihan once put it: “You’re entitled to your own opinions, but you’re not entitled to your own facts.”

It was much the same story when a faculty member at the University of California at Santa Barbara referred to economist Walter Williams as someone “committed to the welfare of the top few.”

It so happens that I have known Walter Williams since 1969. In all those years, I have never once known him to express the slightest concern for the welfare of rich people. But what I have seen repeatedly has been his expressing his concern for people who are poor, both in words and in deeds.

As an economist, Professor Williams knows that high tax rates on investors chase investments – and American jobs – overseas, where American working people cannot get those jobs. But, whether the academic in Santa Barbara agrees or disagrees with that analysis, it is no good for him, or for his students, to dismiss opposing views by misrepresenting them.

These are just a few samples of the intellectual and moral dry rot on the many campuses across the country where the groupthink of the left substitutes for education.

(Daily Corinthian columnist Thomas Sowell is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305. His website is www.tsowell.com.)

Prayer for today Gracious Father, may my heart be mindful of thee, that I may discover the truth and possess it. Steady me in my affections and save me from wandering impulses; and may I help to put wrong down and uplift humanity. Amen.

A verse to share “Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”

Ship has sailed on same-sex marriage STARKVILLE — Anyone who expects the public furor over Mississippi’s House Bill 1523 to subside or who believe that people on either side of the debate will soften their positions simply haven’t been paying attention.

The formal name of HB 1523 is the “Protecting Freedom of Conscience from Government Discrimination Act” and supporters claim it was written and adopted in great measure to protect the rights of people with a “sincerely held religious belief” or a “moral conviction” against samesex marriage – including circuit clerks charged with issuing marriage licenses – from punishment for denying services to same-sex couples.

Opponents say HB 1523 codifies a path to abject discrimination in Mississippi against people engaging in what is clearly constitutionally protected activities under the cloak of religion – and that adoption of such laws at the state level have no impact whatsoever on the federal laws that are in conflict with them.

There is also no small legal question about the how the state defines “sincerely held religious belief” and “moral conviction” in this context. And how does the new law contemplate

the rights of people outside the JudeoChristian faith to their “sincerely Sid Salter held reliColumnist gious belief” or “moral conviction” that may well run far afield of the vast majority of Mississippians?

With all due respect to people of religious faith (“sincerely held” or otherwise) and the atheists and agnostics alike, the constitutional ship has sailed in the United States over the issue of same-sex marriage.

From a purely legal standpoint, it’s no longer a question of whether you approve or disapprove or whether those activities and choices in any way offend your religious beliefs (or the lack of them) or whether they match your political/ philosophical beliefs on the same topics.

On the subject of samesex marriage, the Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision in the 2015 landmark Obergefell v. Hodges case declared that same-sex couples have a constitutional right to marry that is guaranteed by both the Due Process Clause and Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment.

That decision made same-sex marriage legal in Mississippi – or at least impeded Mississippi from violating the federal constitutional right to samesex marriage by denying marriage licenses to samesex couples. About a week later, Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood ordered circuit clerks in the state to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples.

A few days later, U.S. District Judge Carlton Reeves ordered an end to enforcement of the state’s same-sex marriage ban. In that sequence of events, HB 1523 was hatched.

“Mississippi’s laws prohibiting same-sex marriage are now officially declared unconstitutional and unenforceable by the federal court,” Attorney General Jim Hood said at that time.

“This ruling makes clear that marriage licenses should be issued to samesex couples.”

Again, from a purely constitutional standpoint, the same-sex marriage ship has sailed under federal law and federal law – we are told supersedes state law in this instance. Clearly, House Bill 1523 seeks to work around the federal Obergefell decision at the state level.

Just as clearly, LGBT rights at the federal level are perhaps less well defined by

the Supreme Court than simple same-sex marriage rights – which explains the high level of discomfort generated nationally by HB 1523 and similar laws either passed or attempted in other states.

But what is evident is the fact that federal judicial review looms large for Mississippi’s HB 1523. When the shouting and the protests wane, federal appellate judges will be charged with weighing the Obergefell decision and the Constitution against Mississippi’s new law.

Are we then to believe that those appellate judges are going to rule that the choice of a public official over whether or not to obey federal law rests pretty much solely with whether or not that official agrees (from religious and moral standpoints) with the law?

Forget public officials, what about the rest of us average, workaday citizens confronted with income tax laws, speed limits, and narcotic drug statutes?

Do we really only have to obey the laws we agree with? News to me, gentle readers, news to me.

Looking back on the two also-rans John Quincy Adams, our greatest secretary of state (sorry, Hillary Clinton fans), thought that Cuba would inevitably become part of the United States. It hasn’t, at least not yet, but two Cuban-Americans were serious presidential contenders this year.

Yes, neither Marco Rubio nor Ted Cruz won the Republican nomination, instead suspending their campaigns the nights they lost the Florida and Indiana primaries, respectively. But they did become Donald Trump’s most serious competition.

Rubio, born May 1971, and Cruz, born December 1970, are young for presidential contenders. Neither was eligible to vote for Ronald Reagan or George Bush in the 1980s. Rubio was a college senior and Cruz a first-year law student when Bill and Hillary Clinton entered the White House in January 1993.

Neither was a national figure when Barack Obama was elected in 2008.

Donald Trump was flirting with the idea of running for president in the 1990s, two decades ago. Just about no one eight years ago imagined that Rubio or Cruz would be serious candidates this year.

Yet for those who follow politicians closely there

were signs.

Rubio’s farewell speech to the Florida House, recounting how the son of an Michael i m m i g r a n t Barone b a r t e n d e r could rise in Columnist America, got rave reviews on conservative websites.

Cruz, though unable to leverage his Bush campaign experience to a White House job, was cultivating conservative legal and political insiders. I remember him asking me whether he should run for attorney general of Texas if Abbott ran for governor in 2012.

(I said it was up to him; the eventuality did not arise.)

These were signs that both men had serious political ambitions, but so do many young men and women.

Rubio’s initial opponent for the Senate in 2010 was the incumbent Republican governor of Florida, Charlie Crist. When others backed out of the race, Rubio stayed in and got endorsements from county Republican organizations dismayed by Crist’s liberal policies and (literal) embrace of Barack Obama on a 2009 Florida visit.

Crist withdrew from the Republican race and ran

as an Independent. That meant that Rubio won easily in the Republican primary and in a three-way general election.

In the 2012 Texas openseat Senate contest, Cruz challenged the wealthy lieutenant governor of Texas, David Dewhurst, whom most officeholders, including Gov. Rick Perry, supported. Cruz ran a strong second in the initial primary, won the runoff and coasted to a party-line victory in November.

As young senators from the third- and second-largest states, Rubio and Cruz could have settled in for long legislative careers. Instead both set their sights higher, and suffered setbacks. Rubio’s co-sponsorship of the Gang of Eights immigration bill was rejected by most Republicans and hurt him in 2016. Cruz’s call to repeal Obamacare by threatening government shutdown antagonized Republican leaders and Senate colleagues.

Nevertheless, their skill sets served them well in the presidential race. Rubio’s combination of shoutouts to cultural conservatives and emollient attitude toward those who disagree helped him win votes from the religious right and upscale suburbanites. Cruz’s stentorian style and claims

of adherence to conservative principles gave him strong support from “very conservative” voters.

In different ways, both shined in debate, with only a few lapses. Both ran wellorganized campaigns, with Rubio rounding up endorsements and Cruz building the race’s most disciplined and rigorous organization.

Both also attracted attacks, and not only from Donald Trump. Rubio was the target of attack ads from Jeb Bush’s super PAC and a debate ambush by the flailing Chris Christie. The latter allowed John Kasich to finish second in New Hampshire with only 16 percent of the vote and to stay in the race siphoning off upscale voters from Rubio.

Now, defeated by Donald Trump, both their careers seem in tatters. Rubio is leaving the Senate and Cruz has close to 99 enemies there.

The lesson: Ambition and talent can take a politician a long way up – and down.

Another challenge filed to gay marriage law a gay couple and the American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit challenging the new religious-objections bill set to become law July 1.

Roberta Kaplan of New York, lead attorney in the Campaign for Southern Equality case, is asking a judge to order Mississippi clerks to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples without delay.

She also seeks to compel the state to release names of clerks who recuse themselves from issuing such licenses, and she wrote in the court filing that

JACKSON — Another group is challenging a Mississippi law that will let workers cite their own religious objections to same-sex marriage to deny services to people.

Campaign for Southern Equality and two lesbian couples filed papers Tuesday seeking to reopen their 2014 federal lawsuit that challenged Mississippi’s definition of marriage as only between a man and a woman.

Their filing came a day after

clerks who refuse marriage licenses to same-sex couples should refuse them to straight couples, too.

Mississippi House Bill 1523 was one of several measures filed by state lawmakers across the country this year in reaction to last summer’s U.S. Supreme Court ruling that effectively legalized same-sex marriage.

Republican Gov. Phil Bryant signed the Mississippi bill in April, saying it protects people’s First Amendment right of free expression of religion.

The bill says government

Boaters urged to follow laws

BY KIMBERLY SHELTON

In Mississippi, any person born after June 30, 1980, must complete a Boating Safety Course to operate a boat.

Persons under 12 years of age must be accompanied by a person 21 or older on board in order to operate a boat.

kshelton@dailycorinthian.com

As boaters prepare for fun in the sun, the Mississippi Departments of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks and the Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency are stressing safety on and near the water in advance of Memorial Day weekend.

“We want everyone to enjoy time with family and friends on our lakes, rivers and other waterways but we also want them to take proper precautions while doing so,” said North Region Boating Supervisor Lt. Ricky Barry of the Law Enforcement Bureau.

Those operating boats and other watercraft should be aware of the following regulations: ■ Each person on board is required to have a wearable Coast Guard approved personal flotation device such as a life jacket both in Mississippi and Tennessee.

Passengers age 12 and under are required to have one on at all times.

■ Red and green running lights on the front and all around white lights on the back of boats should be visible at night.

■ In Mississippi, any person born after June 30, 1980, must complete a Boating Safety Course to operate a boat. Persons under 12 years of age must be accompanied by a person 21 or older on board in order to operate a boat.

For those wishing to learn more about Mississippi Boating Basics and the legal and safe practices for boat operators, a six hour instructor taught course is available for groups. The Mississippi Boating Basics homestudy course is also available for individuals who are unable to attend an instructor taught course.

Most insurance companies honor these courses by offering reductions in insurance premiums upon completion. Courses are offered at least twice a year in every county. For more information and for test dates visit www.MDWFP.com.

In Tennessee, any resident born after Jan. 1, 1989 must have in their possession a TWRA-issued card showing proof

of successful completion of the TWRA administered boating safety exam if operating alone. Persons under 12 years old may not operate a powered boat of more than 8.5 horsepower unless accompanied by an adult who can take immediate control of the vessel. If the accompanying adult (18 yrs. or older) is born after Jan. 1, 1989, then he/ she must have the boating safety certification card on board.

■ Boats with enclosed gas tanks are required to have a fire extinguisher on board.

■ All boating accidents must be reported to the proper authorities as soon as possible.

■ Boaters pulling others on skis or inter-tubes are required to have a lookout passenger age 10 or over in the state of Mississippi. In the state of Tennessee, boaters are only required to have a functional rear view mirror to keep watch.

■ Boat registration is required for all boats operating on the water.

As a boating supervisor/investigator for 12 counties in the Northeast corner of Mississippi, Barry is also responsible for investigating accidents.

“Alcohol is a big contributing factor in many boating accidents,” he said. “A lot of people don’t realize that the blood alcohol limit is .08, the same as on the road and if caught, they will get a BUI for (Boating Under the Influence).”

“Another contributing factor in boating accidents is distraction,” he continued. “Since January of this year, we have had five serious boating accidents.

Thankfully, none resulted in fatalities, but most could have been prevented if the operators had been more mindful.”

The boating supervisor

recalls one incident which could have been tragic if not for the discovery of an officer.

“The group was checked before leaving the docks and it was discovered that there were no enough life jackets for those on board,” said Barry. “This was luckily determined and corrected before they took to the water because the boat ended up capsizing a while later.”

“It’s a nice time of year and everyone is in such a hurry to get in the water and try out their new boats or equipment that they tend to overlook the small things,” he added.

“It is always wise to have a good mechanic look things over before heading out into the water.”

Boaters may also be charged with reckless operation which covers a wide array of incidents.

Those operating boats with large wakes are liable for any damage their waves create on other boats.

The potential for electric shock drowning is also something to beware of, according to Barry.

“In places such as boat houses and boat docks, alternating current leakage has been known to electrocute or incapacitate swimmers in fresh water,” he said. “When there is a bad ground that electricity will find somewhere to go and may times leaks out into the water where kids or others may be swimming.”

“ESD generally locks the body up and is usually non-fatal but there have been cases where swimmers have perished as a result if it,” he added.

“It is extremely hard to detect since the cause of death usually comes back as drowning.”

clerks could recuse themselves from issuing marriage licenses to gay or lesbian couples, and judges could recuse themselves from performing same-sex weddings.

Although it says such officials must find someone else to issue the license or perform the wedding, legislators did not say what happens when every employee in a clerk’s office or every judge in a county chooses not to provide the services for samesex couples.

Kaplan wrote in the filing Tuesday that the bill “is abso-

lutely silent as to how the right of all Mississippians who seek to legally marry, including gay men and lesbians, will be protected under this new ‘recusal’ system.”

Officials who recuse themselves from issuing licenses or performing marriages for same-sex couples must file a form with the state registrar of vital statistics. Kaplan said the Office of Vital Records sent her a letter May 4 saying it “is under no obligation” to disclose information about officials who file recusal forms.

Man kicks addiction to earn degree OXFORD — In 2008, Ricky Clayton was in his early 50s, lost in the throes of a life-threatening painkiller addiction and homeless in Memphis.

Substance abuse had been with him like a shadow for more than 30 years. In 2005, his brother died alone from a heroin overdose in a Burger King bathroom.

Clayton, who was himself hopelessly addicted to dilaudid, a powerful opioid prescription painkiller, also took methadone or heroin, both readily available opioids that helped him avoid the painful symptoms of drug withdrawal when he didn’t have dilaudid.

“I was pretty much

hopeless,” Clayton said.

“I had tried to quit the pain pills over and over and I couldn’t stay clean, so I just went and got on methadone, which is a terrible addiction too, but it keeps you from being sick. You can take that and it lasts all day.”

Though the odds were stacked against him, Clayton’s story has a happy ending. On Saturday, Clayton, 60, now a clean and sober grandfather, will receive his bachelor’s degree in social work from the University of Mississippi.

A U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study published in January found the yearly rate of U.S. opioid deaths has tripled since 2000.

In 2014, drug overdoses accounted for one-anda-half times more deaths than from car crashes.

More than half a million people in the United States have died from overdoses since 2000, with opioid pain relievers and heroin being the main drugs associated with those deaths.

All this makes Clayton’s achievement a monumental one. The pride he feels in this milestone is evident when it’s mentioned.

“It’s a dream I had when I was young, and I never thought I was going to be able to attain it because of my addiction, but if you stay clean, it goes to show you anything is possible,” Clayton said.

Surviving tornado season doesn’t have to be luck

BY KELLY P. KISSEL Associated Press

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — Storms swept through the nation’s midsection Monday, spawning numerous tornadoes.

While tornadoes can form any time weather conditions are right, the area from Texas to Nebraska typically sees tornadoes between April and June.

Here are some items from the nation’s tornado history and some tips on how to stay safe:

Deadly days Advances in science and communications have lengthened warning times over the years, but even then the wrong storm at the wrong place can kill dozens or even hundreds.

The nation’s worst tornado outbreak was only five years ago, on April 27-28, 2011, when 175 tornadoes killed 316 in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, Tennessee and Virginia. That series of storms surpassed those of April 3-4, 1974, when 127 tornadoes killed 310, mostly in the Ohio Valley.

The Tri-State tornado of March 18, 1925, killed 695 people in Missouri, Illinois and Indiana, and since then the highest death toll from a single storm is 158 at Joplin, Missouri, on May 22, 2011.

like the term Tornado Alley because they prefer to make the point that storms can form anywhere. Tornadoes have been reported in every state, including Alaska.

Storm Prediction Center data compiled in 2010 showed that, in the previous 30 years, Texas had the most storms, followed by Kansas, Florida and Oklahoma. (Alaska had three.) Texas had the greatest number of killer tornadoes, too, followed by Arkansas, Tennessee and Missouri.

Among cities, more have occurred in Oklahoma City than anywhere else — more than 100 since 1893.

Big and strong A twister 2.6 miles wide struck near El Reno, Oklahoma, on May 31, 2013, with winds measured at 290 mph about 500 feet above the ground. It was a bit larger than a tornado that hit Hallam, Nebraska, on May 22, 2004.

A May 3, 1999, storm that later killed 36 people at Moore, Oklahoma, had winds of about 302 mph at Bridge Creek, Oklahoma.

The wind speeds in these storms were measured using Doppler radar rather than traditional anemometers, which can be swept away when directly hit by a storm.

Who’s most at risk?

How to be safe?

The nation’s midsection and the Southeast see the most storms, but some forecasters don’t

It’s all about having a plan, and start planning early if possible.

To begin, buy a weath-

er radio, which carries alerts from your local National Weather Service office (and many models can be programmed to sound an alert tone only if your area is threatened.) You should also clear a path to your basement or a closet or interior room on the lowest floor of your home. The golden rule: Put as many walls between you and the outside.

On the day of the storm, tune in to local broadcasters or your local NWS office and follow them and FEMA on social media if you will check it often enough.

Avoid media that won’t automatically cut in with warnings for your area.

A watch means conditions are good for storms to develop. The National Weather Service says it means just that: Watch.

If you are home when a warning is issued, go to your safe place. You have been warned. Remember — as many walls as possible between you and the outside. Don’t go outside to confirm the storm is in your area.

Spotters and forecasters have already done that.

If you are in car when a warning is issued, flee if it is safe to do so, but be aware thousands of others may have the same idea. If you are unable to get away, get out of your vehicle and into the lowest place possible (but watch for areas prone to flash flooding). Do not go under a bridge, where winds can actually be higher because of a change in air pressure where it passes beneath.

Counselor wins state SBA honor STARKVILLE — Mike Pornovets knows a thing or two about getting the job done right.

The U.S. Navy veteran who served three tours in Afghanistan and another in Iraq returned home to Gulfport five years ago to start his now thriving retail business Everything Kayak. Also a counselor for Mississippi State’s Veterans Business Outreach Center, Pornovets recently has been honored by the Small Business Administration as Mississippi’s 2016 Small Business Person of the Year.

“The way I see it, this award isn’t just for me,” he said. “I’m accepting it on behalf of all the small business owners who are busting their humps doing the grind every day to be successful.”

Pornovets started working last August as a part-time counselor with MSU’s VBOC—which advises military veterans

and spouses who are aspiring entrepreneurs on how to start and maintain their businesses.

One of only 15 VBOC’s in the nation, MSU’s program serves Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana and Tennessee. The center is a partnership between MSU’s College of Business and the G.V. “Sonny” Montgomery Center for America’s Veterans.

While the main VBOC facility and its two staff members are located in MSU’s Thad Cochran Research, Technology and Economic Development Park, Pornovets operates from its satellite office in Biloxi and counsels program clients in the southern half of the center’s service area.

The VBOC completed its first operating year on April 30 and already offers services to 140 clients, said Rodney Pearson, MSU professor of management and information systems, director

of Alcorn County, Inc.

Specializing in Short Term skilled therapy & nursing services.

for student success and VBOC program manager. Pearson added that Pornovets’ background, which is enhanced by his winning the SBA award, helps make the VBOC more viable.

“It surely gives us a lot more credibility,” said Pearson, who helped write the application for the $825,000 SBA grant that brought the VBOC to MSU. “He is a veteran who has successfully transitioned from the military to the business world.”

Pornovets started kayaking when he was 11 years old and saw a market for his interest in Biloxi after his time in the Navy. He said he loves paying his experience forward to other veterans through the VBOC, whether it’s helping entrepreneurs identify funding sources or understand how to properly track their cash flow.

“That’s my favorite part of this job,” he said.

Benghazi suspect won’t face death penalty Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department will not seek the death penalty against Ahmed Abu Khattala, the suspected

Many people have

no financial plan for the future.

Libyan militant charged in the Benghazi attacks that killed a U.S. ambassador and three other Americans, federal officials announced Tuesday. The department revealed its decision in a brief court filing.

In a separate statement, spokeswoman Emily Pierce said Attorney General Loretta Lynch made the decision after consult-

ing with prosecutors.

Khattala’s attorneys had been imploring the Justice Department to remove the death penalty as a possibility should he ultimately be convicted of any capital crimes in a trial. With the death penalty now off the table, he would face a maximum sentence of life in prison if convicted.

Newborn scorched by hospital heater NASHVILLE, Tenn. — A Middle Tennessee family says their newborn daughter suffered serious burns after a piece of equipment malfunctioned at a Nashville hospital.

Sean Boyd, the father of Aminah Boyd, told WSMV-TV last week that his daughter was burned by a screw that fell out of a heat lamp and onto her neck and chest, scorching her skin only a few hours after she was born.

Sean Boyd says he plans to file a lawsuit against Saint Thomas Midtown Hospital, where the incident occurred.

The hospital apologized for the incident in a statement and said a specialist has been contacted to examine the baby for treatment. The hospital says the family will not be charged for any necessary treatment related to the accident.

It is unclear how serious the burns are. Â

Siamese cat named world’s oldest living MANSFIELD, Texas — A Siamese cat born during President Ronald Reagan’s administration has been named

by Guinness World Records as the world’s oldest living cat.

Guinness says Scooter celebrated his 30th birthday on March 26.

He lives in Mansfield, Texas.

Owner Gail Floyd attributes Scooter’s longevity to staying active. She tells Guinness he keeps busy by traveling and has visited 45 of the 50 states. Some of his favorite activities include getting blow-dried after baths and snacking on chicken every other day.

Scooter isn’t Guinness’ oldest cat of all time, though. That mark belongs to a fellow Texas cat, which lived to be 38. Â

Income a factor in keeping employer CHICAGO — A new poll says more than 40 percent of America’s baby boomers stayed with their employer for more than 20 years, a reflection of the growing

national trend toward job mobility.

The Associated PressNORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll of 1,000 Americans 50 and older also shows that of those with at least two decades of service with a single employer, 18 percent have stayed at least 30 years.

Pensions appeared to play a major role in whether to change employers. Â

Being polite to cop brings man’s arrest FRAMINGHAM, Mass. — Politely holding a door open for a police officer has landed a Massachusetts man in jail.

Authorities say Kayvon Mavaddat was at the Natick Mall on Friday when he held the door for the leaving officer. That officer thought Mavaddat looked familiar, and went to check his cruiser’s computer.

The officer found there were three warrants out for his arrest — for heroin possession, shoplifting and driving with a suspended license.

The officer returned to the mall and arrested Mavaddat.

The MetroWest Daily News reports the 28-year-old Mavaddat was held without bail at his arraignment Monday when his probation officer told the judge he routinely skips court dates, court-ordered drug tests and fails to pay probation fees. Â

Cost of long-term care still climbing Long-term care grew more expensive again this year, with the cost of the priciest option, a private nursing home room, edging closer to $100,000 annually, according to a survey from Genworth Financial.

Americans also are paying more for other care options like home health aides and assisted living communities, while adult day care costs fell slightly compared to 2015, Genworth reported in a study released Tuesday.

Private nursing home rooms now come with a median annual bill of $92,378, an increase of 1.2 percent from last year and nearly 19 percent since 2011.

That’s roughly twice the

rate of overall inflation and breaks down to a monthly bill of $7,698.

Genworth Financial Inc. sells long-term care coverage and didn’t address that cost in its study, which was based on information from 15,000 long-term care providers.

Coverage costs also are rising, and many people don’t understand these expenses until they face them, said Joe Caldwell of the National Council on Aging, which is not connected with the study. “It’s really becoming more and more difficult for the average family ... to even purchase longterm care insurance,â€? said Caldwell, the nonprofit’s director of long-term services and support policy.

Mom’s book recalls Brown’s death, life ST. LOUIS — Lezley McSpadden was taking a cigarette break from her grocery store job when a friend called to say someone had been shot in the street near Canfield Green Apartments in Ferguson.

Within minutes, her cellphone rang again.

It was a family member declaring the victim was McSpadden’s 18-yearold son, Michael Brown.

The shooter was a police officer.

The next moments that sultry August day grew more and more intense as McSpadden’s co-worker drove her to the scene in the St. Louis suburb where she quickly spotted clothing that matched her son’s – a yellow sock on a leg the sheet hadn’t covered and a red St. Louis Cardinals cap on the ground.

McSpadden recounts what happened that fateful day two summers ago in her autobiography, “Tell the Truth & Shame the Devil,� set to be released this week and co-written by Lyah Beth LeFlore.

The book chronicles McSpadden’s life growing up in tough St. Louis neighborhoods, her experiences raising Brown, the devastation his shooting brought, and her push to honor his memory. Brown’s death became a catalyst in the national Black Lives Matter movement.

Man faces charges for cocaine in RV GULFPORT — A federal grand jury has indicted a man after authorities allegedly found about 11 kilos of cocaine in his RV. The Sun Herald reports 69-year-old Victor John Wendell Jr. will be arraigned Thursday on a three-count indictment in U.S. District Court.

An indictment filed May 3 charged Wendell with conspiracy, possession with intent to distribute cocaine and interstate travel in aid of drug racketeering enterprises.

Wendell was arrested April 12 when a Harrison County deputy pulled him over on a traffic violation in Gulfport.

Deputies reportedly found fresh handprints and footprints on the RV and its roof. In an affidavit, deputies say they found the cocaine hidden in the RV park’s air conditioning system.

Wendell is held with no bond. Â

Rehabilitated eagle falters before flying PASS CHRISTIAN — It was a dramatic release Monday afternoon for an American bald eagle which was returned to the wild, along the banks of the Wolf River. The adult bird was successfully treated by Wild at Heart Rescue for a lung infection. But there were a few tense moments during its flight to freedom. “Where’s my gloves, are they in here?� asked Doug Pojeky, as he prepared to release the adult, male eagle from its cage.

With an anxious crowd waiting, the eagle nicknamed “Doobs� is ready for release. The bird has spent the past few weeks in rehab for a lung infection. “A fungal infection that all birds of prey can have. Under stressful conditions, it overtakes their body and makes them extremely weak,� explained Missy Dubuisson, the Director of Wild at Heart.

Pojeky, walked the eagle past the line of cameras and cellphones.

And with everything set, he smoothly raised the bird to flight. And that initial flight was exceed-

ingly smooth, for the first few seconds. Â

School districts get computer programs GULFPORT — Six school districts in South Mississippi have been selected to participate in a state-sponsored computer science pilot program.

The Mississippi Department of Education announced Hancock, Harrison, George, Pass Christian, Ocean Springs and Pascagoula school districts will begin training teachers for the program this summer.

The program will be administered at K-5 schools and high schools in those districts beginning next year.

The Sun Herald reports the pilot program is designed to expand the knowledge base of students and open the doors to career opportunities. Â

12 airports to get grants for upgrades JACKSON — Twelve Mississippi airports will benefit from more than $4.15 million in grants awarded by the U.S. Department of Transportation to help with facility upgrades.

U.S. Sens. Thad Cochran and Roger Wicker, in a news release Monday, said the projects are in addition to 19 grants awarded in March for other projects. “These grants make important investments in the safety and efficiency of Mississippi airports,�

Cochran said.

The grants will support projects at Gulfport-Biloxi International Airport, for runway rehabilitation; construction of a terminal building at Philadelphia Municipal Airport;

apron, runway and taxiway rehabilitation and an update of the airport master plan study at McCharen Field Airport in West Point; and airport drainage improvements and installation of perimeter fencing at Poplarville-Pearl River County Airport.

Other projects include work at airports in Louisville, Columbus, Lexington, Starkville, Winona and Montgomery County, Copiah County, NatchezAdams County and the University-Oxford Airport. Â

MSU warns against stadium trespassing JACKSON — Mississippi State University officials Monday warned people not to trespass in the school’s football stadium after a 21-yearold student fell through the roof of a video scoreboard Saturday and died. “It’s the intent of the university, in the future, to prosecute any trespassers to the fullest extent of state law, and that students will be subject to the very harshest administrative sanctions,� university spokesman Sid Salter said at a news conference on the Starkville campus.

Salter said that Andrew Scott Demboski fell through the roof of the towering scoreboard at the south end of MSU’s Davis Wade Stadium around 1:30 a.m. Saturday after he and two fellow students entered the stadium by climbing over a locked fence.

Rescuers struggled to extract the Ocean Springs student from where he fell inside the scoreboard, because it was too high for the ladder on a Starkville fire truck.

Online sales surge When you think of e-commerce, you’re likely to think of Amazon. A Forrester report says the Seattle e-commerce powerhouse accounted for 60 percent of the U.S. growth in e-commerce last year.

Yet there’s hope for rivals. Forrester predicts U.S. online sales will exceed a half-trillion dollars by 2020. That’s a 42 percent increase from this year. Even smaller companies are able to challenge brick-and-mortar retailers because it’s not that expensive to set up a website, especially with the help of e-commerce systems such as Shopify and Magento.

To succeed, Forrester research analyst Sucharita Mulpuru says Amazon and its rivals will need to navigate

Let your fingers do the shopping

Today

some challenges: While many Americans use their phone to research things to buy, they don’t find it easy to complete the purchase on their phones. That means lost sales for people who don’t bother switching to a larger screen.

As online sales grow, so do costs, especially as customers demand faster shipping.

A strong U.S. dollar means American shoppers can find deals from online merchants in Canada and other countries.

Rivals have one advantage over Amazon: They can focus on specialized products rather than mass-market commodities, meaning they can charge more and not lose out in a price war.

Coming Up In The Daily Corinthian Graduating high school seniors of the Class of 2016 — Coming Sunday, May 22.

Nosy new husband claims he has the right to snoop D E A R ABBY: I married a great guy a short while ago.

It’s the second marfor Abigail riage of us.

Van Buren both He’s good to my kids, Dear Abby my parents, and even gets along with my ex-husband.

“Stan” moved into my home after we married.

There’s only one major problem I’m having trouble dealing with: He goes through all my things, from my mail to my closet.

I have caught him going through my glove compartment, the trunk of my car and anything else he can get his hands on.

He says he has a “right” to do it “because we are married,” but I don’t look at it that way.

His first marriage did not go well.

His ex didn’t cheat on him, so I don’t know where this is coming from.

Abby, I am squeaky clean. I have never given him any reason not to trust me.

I believe he’s just nosy.

Meanwhile, I feel violated.

I have tried talking to him

about it, but he just doesn’t get it.

Please help before I end my new marriage. -- THE NEW MRS. IN DELAWARE DEAR NEW MRS.: “Great guys” do not rifle through their wives’ mail and personal belongings after having been asked not to.

You say your husband’s first marriage didn’t go well, and she didn’t cheat on him. Do you know what did cause their divorce?

Your husband’s obsession with searching through your belongings is not normal behavior.

There may be a chapter in his life you know nothing about.

Because you have asked him to stop, and he is either unwilling or unable to, it may take help from a licensed psychotherapist to get to the bottom of it.

Of course, in order for that to happen, your husband would have to be willing.

If he isn’t, you may indeed have to decide whether you can live with this “quirk” of his or would be better off without him.

DEAR ABBY: I am a teacher who loves my job.

Now that the school year is winding down, may I ask you to pass on this suggestion to all the wonderful parents who send in gifts to their children’s

teachers?

My family has food allergies.

For this reason, unless the lovingly baked goodies have ALL the ingredients listed on the wrapping paper, my family cannot enjoy them.

I usually pass on these goodies to other teachers and neighbors.

(Please don’t think I’m not appreciative; this is purely a medical precaution.)

If I may suggest a gift idea: gift certificates for all kinds of flowers.

How often do we receive the joy of flowers?

Thank you for passing this along. -- EDUCATOR IN SOUTH CAROLINA DEAR EDUCATOR: You’re welcome.

While gift certificates for flowers are a wonderful idea, I’m sure a gift certificate for school supplies would also be welcomed, because many teachers purchase supplies for their classrooms out of their own funds.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail 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.

Horoscopes ARIES (March 21-April 19).

You can go forward without support; plenty of people have done it before you. But your journey will be so much easier with the power of like minds and the intentions of kindred spirits behind you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20).

The thing you’ve been working on has an important purpose, though that purpose may seem secondary in the rush you get when you display the spoils publicly and invoke instant envy.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21).

Your life is either defined by your most cherished goals, or it is defined by surreptitious aims that are in conflict with those goals.

Which is it? Gain awareness on the subject. In this regard, knowledge is power.

CANCER (June 22-July 22).

You’ll easily recognize the truth and see into the lies of the people around you. Your compassion will keep you from making harsh judgments. The human is among the most vulnerable of animals and has complex de-

fenses.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Travel will be expensive and quite a lot of hard work at that, but worthwhile in so many ways. With the courage of adventure you will overcome anything currently standing between you and the upcoming journey.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).

Your cosmic gift of the day is a kick-start into awareness. Inspiring people are like the light bulb overhead in a comic strip. This is the illumination you need in order to see your options clearly.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).

The beauty of a vase does not determine how much water it holds. Figure out what you need on a very basic and essential level and then find it. On the way, don’t get fooled by appearances.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).

Though you may be all too aware of the foibles and failings of your tribe, you’re also very loyal to your people. This loyalty comes with the onus of discretion today. When in doubt, don’t

Kyle Busch nabs his first victory at Kansas Speedway There were times in his career when Kyle Busch considered Kansas Speedway to be one of his worst tracks. From 2004 to 2013, he had a best finish of seventh, and only one other top 10, with eight finishes outside the top 20.

With his win last Saturday in the GoBowling 400, Busch has completed a turnaround at the speedway.

His fortunes began to improve back in the fall of 2014. He finished third then, followed by a fifth last fall. (He missed last year’s spring race at Kansas due to a broken leg.)

Last Saturday night, Busch and the rest of the field spent the first two thirds of the race chasing Martin Truex Jr., who started from the pole and led 172 laps before a problem on a green-flag pit stop at Lap 212 of 267 forced another stop and put him out of contention.

When that round of green-flag pit stops was over, Busch had inherited the lead, then led the final 37 laps to get the victory, his series-leading third of the season and the 37th of his Cup career.

He ran the last 56 laps on the same set of tires, even as his challengers stopped for fresh rubber. Kevin Harvick and Matt Kenseth, with 22 fewer laps on their tires, gave Busch his toughest competition in the closing laps. But Busch pulled away from Kenseth on the next-to-last restart and then beat Harvick on the final restart. Harvick settled for second over Kurt Busch, Kenseth and Ryan Blaney.

Busch said in his winner’s interview that having never won before at Kansas, he was wondering whether he was making the right moves as he tried to hold on with older tires in the latter stages of the race.

“I was trying to take care of my tires and make sure I wasn’t slipping ’em and overheating ’em,” he said. “But Kenseth was catching me. I was like: OK, I got to go. I got to find some speed.’

“I wasn’t able to find any. At that moment, I’m wondering: What am I doing wrong? What am I doing different from the previous run? And why am

I in this position?’

“Fortunately, those couple of restarts that I got, I just had a chance to regroup, resettle in and get my car back underneath me. That was the key for us.”

With the win at Kansas, there now are just two tracks on the circuit, Charlotte and Pocono, where Busch has not won a Cup race. He said he’s eager to address that.

“Every single week, every single year, everything’s a challenge,” he said.

“We do this for many reasons. But for me, it’s just the challenge of being able to go out there and to continue to try to thrive and be good at what we do, to win championships, win races.

“It’s certainly been some tough roads along the way here at Kansas, but it’s certainly nice to win this one. I look forward to hopefully knock off some more this year at Charlotte and Pocono to complete the list.”

On the other hand, Truex must be wondering what he has to do to win at Kansas. Last year in the spring race he had the fastest car, but on the final pit stop, his crew elected to go with only fuel while his challengers took fresh tires. That saw him drop to ninth. This year, it was a broken bolt in the braking system that did him in.

“I couldn’t believe it,” Truex said of the moment he realized he had a problem with his No. 78 Toyota. “Went around (Turns) One and Two and I was like, ‘Wheel loose.’

“I kept telling myself that maybe it’s not me, maybe it’s just shaking because it has tape on it or something stupid. It was loose and I knew it right away. Frustrating, but that’s how it goes.”

But he still tried to focus on the positives of a weekend that saw him run the fastest from the opening of practice until the final pit stop of the race.

“We’re going to win races for sure,” he said. “If we keep bringing cars like that, we’re going to win some. It’s frustrating when you’ve had it happen so many times in your career.”

NOTEBOOK

Stewart continues to move up in Sprint Cup standings Tony Stewart continues his climb up the Sprint Cup points standings.

With a 12th-place finish in the GoBowling 400 at Kansas Speedway, Stewart moved up one position in the standings, to 37th, but more importantly, gained points on the 30thplace position, now held by Regan Smith.

To make the Chase after missing the first eight races of the season due to a back injury in the off-season, Stewart must finish 30th or better in the regular season standings and win one race.

In his return to the Cup Series, Stewart finished 19th and moved to 40th in the standings, 101 points behind Matt DiBenedetto, who was in 30th place at that point. The next week, at Talladega, Stewart, with relief from Ty Dillon, was credited with sixth place and moved up to 38th, but more importantly shaved his deficit to DiBenedetto to 71 points.

His finish at Kansas reduced the deficit to 59 points, as Smith took over the 30th position from DiBenedetto.

Stewart, who plans to retire from Cup racing at the end of this season, has 15 races to make up the rest of the points deficit and win a race.

3,504 Byron’s first Truck Series win forces him to learn the victory burnout

Courtesy of Toyota Racing

William Byron, an 18-year-old high school senior from Charlotte, North Carolina, has spent more time racing online than on a real race track.

But his raw talent caught the eye of Kyle Busch, who put Byron behind the wheel of one of the Toyota Tundras that Busch fields in the Camping World Truck Series.

Last Friday night at Kansas Speedway, in just his fifth career start in the series, Byron drove the No. 9 to victory.

He raced among the leaders throughout the Toyota Tundra 250 and was in the lead when a caution flag flew with three of the race’s scheduled 167 laps remaining.

almost out of the top 5 before recovering to take the third position. Then on the final lap, race leader Johnny Sauter and Ben Rhodes collided.

Byron shot past the two spinning trucks and took the checkered flag, with Matt Crafton, Daniel Hemric, Christopher Bell and Clint Bowyer completing the top 5.

“This is a dream come true,” Byron said. “I was 6 years old watching Truck races. Didn’t start racing until I was 14, and just to be in a Toyota Tundra like this is amazing.”

Byron said in his winner’s interview that racing is so new to him that he didn’t even know how to celebrate properly.

“I didn’t even know how to do a burnout, so I just kind of found the gears and watched the smoke in the back and it was just really cool,” he said.

“I’ve visualized this for a little bit, but I never thought it would come like this.”

After Kansas, it was back to high school for Byron, who will graduate on May 27.

“It’s a good balance between going to school and being a completely normal kid, and people really have no idea what’s going on when we get to the race track,” he said. “Then the cool part is that I like to just kind of do my business at school and keep my grades up and then get to the race track and enjoy myself.”

Byron’s team owner, Kyle Busch, said that even though Byron is still short on experience, he has confidence that the youngster will win again.

“We saw William early last year and talked with him and his dad about putting this deal together,” Busch said. “Fortunately, it all came together and we are able to … have William be able to win this soon in his career in the Truck Series. “Hopefully there are many more to come.”

Driver Michael McDowell knows his Sprint Cup team is ‘growing in the right direction’ said. “For some, that’s the case, but for a lot, it’s not.”

Instead, the McDowells are much like most RV travelers — they’ve learned which businesses are RV-friendly and are the easiest to navigate in the large vehicles.

“Cracker Barrel is our No. 1 stop,” McDowell said. “They have RV parking. If we can’t make it all the way through the night, we sleep there, then get a good breakfast before we head out again.”

Sometimes they plan an extended road trip, combining vacation and racing.

“We have made a trip of races at Pocono, Watkins Glen and Michigan, with stops in between,” he said. “But now my son is in school, so most of the time we have to have him back by Monday morning.”

McDowell said he isn’t pushing his kids to become racers, even though he says he would support them if they really had the desire and talent to be successful.

He takes that position because he’s mindful that not everyone who wants to be a racer — even those with talent and those who make great sacrifices — gets the breaks to make a living at it.

In his early racing days, McDowell, a native of Phoenix, was a championship kart racer. He went on to find success in sportscar racing and open-wheel racing before moving to NASCARtype cars. In ARCA, he won four races and contended for the series championship. Along the way, he and his family sacrificed to keep him moving up the ladder.

“I love the way my childhood was,” he said. “I’m glad I did it, but it’s not for everybody.

“And you can see that not everybody makes it. A lot of people made the same sacrifices I did and get to 20 or 22 years old and don’t have an education or a job and aren’t doing anything in racing.”

McDowell is making it as a driver, but the success he envisioned has eluded him so far.

Since breaking into the Cup Series in 2008, he’s not won a race or contended for a title, although he has had some strong fin-

ishes in the series now known as Xfinity.

“To be in NASCAR this long and not be in position to win or compete for championships is tough,” McDowell said. “But it’s also why I’m fighting hard and pushing forward — to grow this program at Circle Sport-Leavine Family Racing — to be a team that can do that.

“Everybody started out where we are, and we’re growing in the right direction. We have more partners, more resources than we’ve ever had. We’ve got to keep that going for the next five years to get to the level we want to get to.

“It’s a daunting task, but we have the right people to do it.”

There’s a perception among many fans that all of the drivers in NASCAR’s Sprint Cup Series have lavish lifestyles — living in mansions, flying back and forth to races on private jets and spending weekends at the track in million-dollar motorcoaches.

But for some, like Michael McDowell, that’s not exactly the case.

McDowell drives the No. 95 Michael McDowell Chevrolet for Circle Sport-Leavine drives the No. 95 Family Racing, a ride he shares with Chevrolet for Circle Ty Dillon. The team is one of the Sport-Leavine Family lesser-funded ones in the garage, but Racing.

McDowell and the rest of the team are working to build the organization into a contender.

It’s a tall task. Entering this weekend’s race at Dover International Speedway, McDowell has run 10 of the 11 races this season, with his two best finishes coming at Daytona and Talladega — two tracks where restrictor plates slow speeds and also make it possible for lesser-funded teams to find success. He was 15th at Daytona and 21st at Talladega. His average finish this year of 26.7 is better than his average for any of his eight previous seasons in Cup, and he’s 33rd in the points standings — also better than any previous year.

Not being among the sport’s elite means his life is different from the superstars. And many would see that as not a bad thing at all.

For instance, for the races held at tracks within a 10- to 12-hour drive from his home base near Charlotte, North Carolina, McDowell drives his own motorcoach, in the company of his wife, Jami, and their children, Trace, Emma and Rylie.

“There’s a lot of outside perception that we’re hopping on jets and flying home and living the Hollywood lifestyle,” McDowell

BY HOWARD FENDRICH Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A day after Stephen Strasburg deflected questions about a new contract, the Washington Nationals announced that they had, indeed, agreed to a seven-year deal with the right-hander that starts next season.

The team scheduled a news conference at Nationals Park on Tuesday with Strasburg.

He is surprisingly skipping his first chance at free agency to stay with the club that drafted him No. 1 overall in 2009 and — in a move debated around

baseball — shut him down before the playoffs in 2012 to protect the pitcher’s surgically repaired right elbow.

According to a person familiar with the negotiations, the agreement calls for total payments of $175 million starting in 2017, but it includes $70 million in deferred money. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the Nationals did not reveal the financial terms of the deal.

Strasburg gets a $10 million signing bonus payable on July 1, 2019, and salaries of $15 million each in 2017 and

2018, $35 million in 2019, $25 million in 2020, $15 million apiece in 2021 and ‘22 and $45 million in 2023.

His deal contains salary deferrals of $30 million in 2019, $10 million in 2020 and $30 million in 2023.

If he stays for the full seven seasons, Strasburg would get $15 million each year from 2017-23, followed by seven $10 million payments each July 1 from 2024-30. The use of a deferral structure is similar to the $210 million, sevenyear deal that the Nationals gave another Scott Boras client, right-hander Max Scher-

zer, before last season.

Strasburg would earn a $1 million performance bonus each year for pitching 180 innings. The new contract has an escape clause: Strasburg can opt out and become a free agent after the 2019 or 2020 seasons.

If he opts out after three seasons, $30 million deferred from his 2019 salary would be paid out in three $10 million installments each July 1 from 2020-22. If he opts out after four, $40 million deferred from 2019 and 2020 would be Please see NATIONALS | 13A

DeBriyn named an SEC Legend Associated Press

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. — Former Arkansas baseball coach Norn DeBriyn has been named one of four Southeastern Conference Baseball Legends.

DeBriyn was named Tuesday with Gabe Gross of Auburn, Cris Carpenter of Georgia and Scott Downs of Kentucky as baseball legends.

DeBriyn coached the Razorbacks to a record of 1,161-60 from 1970 until his retirement after the 2002 season.

He led Arkansas to two Southwest Conference titles, one SEC championship, 15 NCAA Tournament appearances and four NCAA College World Series appearances.

The four legends will be recognized during the SEC Baseball Tournament later this month in Hoover, Alabama.

DeBriyn is also scheduled to throw out the first pitch at Friday’s series opener between the Razorbacks and Alabama at Baum Stadium in Fayetteville.

Braves place Johnson on DL Associated Press

ATLANTA — The Atlanta Braves have placed right-hander Jim Johnson on the 15-day disabled list with a right groin strain and recalled left-hander Ian Krol from Triple-A Gwinnett.

The Braves also activated infielder Gordon Beckham from the disabled list before Tuesday night’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies. Outfielder Matt Tuiasosopo was designated for assignment after being with the team for one week.

Johnson, expected to be a top setup reliever, is 0-4 with a 7.90 ERA. He gave up a two-run homer to Chris Herrmann in the 11th inning of Sunday’s 5-3 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Krol had a 4.38 ERA in 12 appearances at Gwinnett. He allowed only a .136 batting average against left-handed hitters, with 10 strikeouts and no walks in 61⁄3 innings.

Beckham missed 18 games with a strained left hamstring.

MLB reviewing Nats’ Harper’s confrontation Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Major League Baseball says it is reviewing Washington Nationals slugger Bryce Harper’s confrontation with an umpire to decide whether he should be disciplined.

Harper was ejected by plate umpire Brian Knight while in the dugout during the ninth inning of Washington’s 5-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Monday night.

When someone is tossed from a game in the majors, he is required to leave the dugout. Moments after Monday’s ejection, pinch hitter Clint Robinson hit a tiebreaking, game-ending home run, and Harper ran onto the field with his teammates to celebrate. Harper pointed toward Knight and cursed at the umpire.

KOSSUTH — A huge fourth led to a fifth straight appearance.

Kossuth (27-8) broke open a tight contest in Game 3 of its Class 3A Baseball Playoff encounter with rival Alcorn Central on Monday night. The Aggies plated 13 runs in the bottom of the fourth inning for a 19-6 win over the Bears.

versus Mooreville in the bestof-three series. Game 1 is set for Thursday at Mooreville.

Kossuth will host Game 2 on Friday with the “if necessary” game scheduled for Mooreville on Saturday.

Kossuth is making its fifth straight trip to the North State round. The Aggies, who dropped a 2-0 series to Belmont in last year’s round, have won a pair of Class 3A State Championships and finished runner-up over the past

four years.

On Monday, Cole Tomlin and Reed Mitchell combined to drive in 10 runs in the fiveinning win. Tomlin had only one hit in four plate appearances, but the infielder collected six RBI behind a home run and walk.

Mitchell chased home four.

Connar Boyer also homered in the win as the Aggies broke open a 6-5 contest.

Lions rookie knew about team’s woes

BY LARRY LAGE Associated Press

ALLEN PARK, Mich. — A’Shawn Robinson and his fellow rookies listened to the Detroit Lions provide a bit of an oral history.

The Lions, of course, didn’t dwell on the 2008 team that was the first to go 0-16 in the league. They also didn’t highlight the lone playoff victory since winning the 1957 NFL title.

That fact, though, was old news to Robinson, the de-

fensive tackle from Alabama chosen in the second round of the draft. He had heard about Detroit’s long history of woes from his roommate at Alabama, Chris Posa, who is from Commerce, Michigan, in the Detroit suburbs.

“He enlightened me,” Robinson said Tuesday as he became Detroit’s 10th and final draft pick to sign a contract.

Posa seemed to get a kick out of getting mentioned in media reports.

“Btw you know I wasn’t talk-

ing bad about my lions,” Posa posted on his Twitter account.

“I’ll always bleed Honolulu blue but it’s not like I’m gonna lie about how bad it’s been.”

The long misery of the Lions is well known, though they have been infrequent contenders for the playoffs in recent seasons. Detroit, led by first-year general manager Bob Quinn, is coming off its 13th losing season in 15 years.

Quinn, clearly, is trying to rebuild a shaky offensive line and a defensive front that lost

tackles Ndamukong Suh and Nick Fairley in free agency last year.

The Lions struggled to run last season, ranking last in the league. Quarterback Matthew Stafford has been sacked 89 times the past two seasons.

Taylor Decker is part of the plan to change that, crossing the border from Ohio State to give the franchise options at right tackle opposite Riley Reiff and perhaps to replace Please see LIONS | 13A

Rusty Masters champion to get back to work

BY DOUG FERGUSON Associated Press

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Masters champion Danny Willett has been away from golf for a month and has been working harder than ever.

Not with his golf clubs but with a pen.

The last box of some 200 yellow Masters flags arrived Tuesday for Willett to sign for players and charities, bringing the total to what manager Chubby Chandler estimated at just short

of 1,000 since the 28-year-old from England slipped on a green jacket.

As for the golf? Not so much.

He played 18 holes with his friends at home on Saturday.

He played nine holes Monday when he showed up at the TPC Sawgrass for The Players Championship.

“Only time I’ve been on the golf course in the last month,” said Willett, who lives in a house he converted from an old mill behind Lindrick Golf Club,

best known as hosting the 1957 Ryder Cup that produced a rare — at the time, anyway — victory for Great Britain & Ireland.

“A little rusty,” Willett said.

“Try and get some work done this week ... and hopefully come Thursday, we’ll have shook off a little bit of that rust.”

This was a nice problem to have.

Even before he rallied from a five-shot deficit to beat Jordan Spieth on the back nine at Augusta National, Willett had

planned a quiet month away from golf with his wife and newborn son to relax and do what he described as “normal things.”

He wasn’t planning on chaos back home in a country celebrating its first Masters champion in 20 years. There were media appearances with his green jacket, a trip to the European Cup semifinal between Liverpool and Villareal, and an Please see RUSTY | 13A

paid out in four $10 million installments every July 1 from 2021-24.

Word of the agreement emerged Monday while Strasburg was pitching in Washington’s 5-4 victory over the visiting Detroit Tigers. After the game, Strasburg was asked about his contract and replied: “I don’t really have a comment about that right now.”

Asked about his comfort level in Washington, Strasburg answered: “Growing up in Southern California, San Diego, all my life and stuff, the East Coast is a little bit of a change. But the city of D.C. has been great to me

Upcoming Sprint Cup schedule

and my family. It’s really grown on us. We’re very comfortable here.”

By agreeing to a deal now, Strasburg leaves a weaker free-agent class in his wake, because he would have been the No. 1 pitcher available.

The 27-year-old Strasburg has a 59-37 career record and a 3.07 ERA across 139 appearances, all starts. He led the National League in strikeouts with 242 in 2014.

“From the moment he was drafted, Stephen has been far more than just a pitcher for our organization, and his talent is transcendent,” Nationals general manager Mike Rizzo said. “The numbers speak for themselves.”

him after he becomes a free agent next year.

“I’m getting reps all over the place,” said Decker, the team’s firstround pick.

Detroit also drafted offensive linemen Graham Glasgow and Joe Dahl, adding possible starting options at center and guard. Robinson seems set up to start next to veteran Haloti Ngata and potentially to replace him in the future as the team’s top defensive tackle.

Detroit would certainly like to focus on the future

and that’s how the history lesson went.

“Obviously around here it’s going to be the positive things,” Decker said.

The Lions were founded in 1930 as the Portsmouth (Ohio) Spartans, playing for four years across the state line and joining Green Bay as two of the smallest cities in the NFL. The rookies also heard about Detroit’s history of playing on Thanksgiving.

“I thought it was pretty cool,” Robinson said. “I never knew any of that stuff about the Detroit Lions, about them being in Ohio.”

appearance at the World Snooker Championship in his hometown of Sheffield, where Willett took a lap of honor around two snooker tables.

Asked what he had done differently because of winning his first major, Willett smiled and said, “Drunk more.”

That’s not entirely true.

Willett probably wouldn’t have spent the Tuesday night after the Masters watching a replay of his 5-under 67 that in time will get as much attention as the 41 that Spieth shot on the back nine.

That began the process of realizing what he had done.

“It’s still not sunk in, to be honest,” Willett said. “I just kind of watched it ...

I don’t know if I felt like I had to. I just wanted to see it back over, I guess, and just see some of the things that we did. Four-and-ahalf hours go pretty quick when you’re playing, and Sunday went exceptionally fast. So I think it was just to actually watch it back and slow it down, just take in what we achieved.”

Willett plans to bring his green jacket with him wherever he plays, and with it comes expectations he hasn’t felt since he was the world’s No. 1 amateur in 2008. The next few years will decide whether he’s more of a curiosity than a celebrity.

Slowed by nagging back problems, the Masters was only his fifth victory worldwide. Then again, he was hardly a surprise. Willett was No. 12 in the world when he won the Masters, after winning in Dubai earlier in the year and in Switzerland last year.

ning of the year he would win one of the next six majors,” Chandler said. “And I think he’ll win another in the next four. He has a proper short game. He has the head, the heart and the (guts). That’s a good combination.”

It’s time to get back to work. A lot of work.

Willett only has a twoweek break scheduled twice through October, and he could play as many as 15 times over the next 23 weeks.

That doesn’t include the FedEx Cup playoffs, even though he is eligible by taking PGA Tour membership. There were other commitments he made in Europe, and Willett won’t cancel those. Not this year. He would play the FedEx Cup finale at the Tour Championship only if he can stay in the top 30 without competing in the opening three playoff events. That’s a tall order because Willett has only four events left — The Players and three majors — to earn points and he currently is at No. 34.

He leaves Florida for Ireland and then England. He has a three-week stretch of the U.S. Open, Germany and the French Open. Then he has three big events in five weeks — the British Open, PGA Championship and the Olympics.

It starts at Sawgrass with a lot of rust and plenty of expectations — at least more than he had before he owned a green jacket.

“I’m not really too fussed about what everybody else thinks,” Willett said. “I’m trying to do my bit. And what I’ve done over the last 18 months, two years, it’s proved to myself that I can do some pretty special things.”

Thunder gains 3-2 lead over Spurs

BY RAUL DOMINGUEZ Associated Press

SAN ANTONIO — Russell Westbrook had 35 points, 11 rebounds and nine assists, and the Oklahoma City Thunder rallied in the fourth quarter to beat the San Antonio Spurs 95-91 on Tuesday night and take a 3-2 lead in the Western Conference semifinals.

Kevin Durant added 23 points as the Thunder won for the second time in San Antonio in the series. Oklahoma City can close out the series Thursday in Game 6 at home.

Westbrook sealed the victory with a three-point play with 6.3 seconds remaining, scoring after the Spurs weren’t able to foul him intentionally and he drove for a layup while being fouled.

Kawhi Leonard finished with 26 points for San Antonio, which lost at home once in the regular season and has dropped two straight there now.

The Thunder took a 92-

90 lead with 54 seconds remaining on a pair of free throws by Durant after Spurs guard Danny Green fell into his legs when he appeared to be tripped by Steven Adams on an attempted screen.

Tony Parker missed the second of free throws to make it to 92-91. Parker also missed a 12-foot jumper.

Westbrook settled in after an erratic first half in which he committed six of the Thunder’s 13 first-half turnovers. He only had two turnovers after halftime.

Westbrook was 12 for 27 from the field in scoring a personal series high.

Besides scoring at least 28 points for the fourth time in the series, the electrifying point guard had four offensive rebounds and two steals in 39 minutes.

The aggressive defense that brought Oklahoma City back into the series after an embarrassing Game

1 loss continued Tuesday night. The Thunder bodied the Spurs on the wings and then collapsed fully when San Antonio attempted to attack the lane.

Green added 20 points, going 6 for 9 shooting on 3-pointers. LaMarcus Aldridge also had 20 points but shot just 6 for 21.

Tip-Ins Thunder: F Kyle Singler was inactive, sitting out his fourth straight game in the series. Singler played 12 minutes in the opener, missing his only field goal attempt. . Westbrook and Durant have both scored 25 or more points in the same contest in 33 postseason games. Elgin Baylor and Jerry West have the most combined playoff games of 25-plus at 50. Fellow Lakers greats Shaquille O’Neal and Kobe Bryant are tied for second at 33. . F Nick Collison played 50 seconds in the final two minutes of

the first half, subbing for Adams before exiting for Randy Foye.

Spurs: Tim Duncan’s dunk with 2:58 left in the first half were his first points since a layup 31 seconds into the second half in Game 3. Duncan, who finished with five points, was held scoreless in Game 4 for the first time in 249 postseason games over a 19-year career. His 250 postseason games are nine shy of the record held by former Lakers guard Derek Fisher, and his 157 wins trail only Fisher’s 161. . Boris Diaw entered Tuesday’s game averaging 5.6 points in the postseason, slightly below his 6.4 average in the regular season. . Popovich became enraged, turning bright red and throwing his fist toward the court after the Spurs failed to get a shot off with 9:19 remaining in the final quarter. The Spurs responded with a steal by Leonard followed by a 3-pointer by Green.

Curry is 1st unanimous NBA MVP, takes honor again

BY JANIE MCCAULEY Associated Press

OAKLAND, Calif. — Stephen Curry is the first unanimous NBA MVP, earning the award for the second straight season Tuesday after leading the defending champion Warriors to a record-setting season.

The Golden State superstar is the 11th player in league history

to be voted MVP in consecutive seasons and the first guard to do so since Steve Nash in 2004-05 and 2005-06. Curry received 1,310 points from the 130 media voters from the U.S. and Canada.

He was followed in the vote by Kawhi Leonard of San Antonio, LeBron James of Cleveland and Oklahoma City teammates Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant.

Curry’s teammate Draymond Green was seventh.

Curry is the first two-time winner in franchise history, and Wilt Chamberlain (1959-60) is the only other Warriors winner. After guiding Golden State to its first championship in 40 years, Curry & Co. took that success even further to finish with 73 regular-season wins to top mark set by the 1995-96 Chi-

cago Bulls team that went 72-10.

In a stunning overtime performance Monday night, Curry showed exactly how he can take over a game in a matter of seconds.

He returned from a sprained right knee to score 40 points — and 17 in overtime — in a 132-125 win at Portland to put his team up 3-1 in the Western Conference semifinals.

“I figured that he’d find his

stroke and make a few shots, but I mean that was, that was crazy,” said Steve Kerr, who was voted NBA Coach of the Year last month.

Curry, now one of the most recognizable athletes worldwide, will be presented with his MVP trophy Tuesday at Oracle Arena before trying to close out the series against the Trail Blazers at home Wednesday night.

Oldies but goodies now called Golden Medallions One of the fun things about being the Southern Gardener is having the opportunity to share new and colorful plants with gardeners all across Mississippi and beyond.

T h e number of Gary new plants Bachman a v a i l a b l e each year is Southern truly amazGardening ing, and there never seems to be enough time to adequately cover them all. But with this column, I want to take a different approach and start to periodically highlight strong landscape performers that gardeners may have forgotten about.

I’ve got the perfect name for these throwback plants: Golden Medallion.

Although these plants have been around for a long time, they are still garden champions and gardeners should still be using them.

The first Golden Medallion plant I just can’t get enough of is Blue Daze evolvulus. An easy plant that needs minimal care, Blue Daze was one of the first two plants chosen as Mississippi Medallion winners way back in 1996.

I like the fast-spreading growth rate that makes Blue Daze a good ground cover. In my landscape, I use it in front of an Indian hawthorn planting. Blue Daze is described as not being invasive, but every couple of weeks I find I do need to trim some of the runners trying to make their way up into the Indian hawthorn.

B lue Da ze evolvulu s s p r e a d s r ap i d l y a n d makes a good ground cover. Its funnel-shaped flowers are sky blue and only open for one day. evolvulus has a downy appearance, and its 1-inch, funnel-shaped flowers are sky blue. The flowers open for only one day.

They are brilliant blue in the morning, but they look quite spent by afternoon, especially as they face west and receive a high heat load each afternoon. A location with a little afternoon shade is welcome, but too much shade reduces total flowering. Plant Blue Daze in well-drained soil that is consistently moist.

The other Mississippi Medallion selection in 1996 was New Gold lantana, and today I’m also naming it a Golden Medallion plant. Its bright golden-yellow flowers are

e r P day i l o H ale!

outstanding.

New Gold lantana is vigorous and low growing, with a dense, trailing habit that can reach 1 to 2 feet tall with a 3-foot spread. I’ve written in the past about Butter Cream (bright yellow flowers that transition to creamy white) and Silver Mound (pure white flowers), two closely related selections with similar growth habits.

Light pruning through the summer helps maintain its size and tidiness and helps stimulate more flowers and a bushier structure. Fertilize once a week with a water-soluble fertilizer to maintain flowering potential.

In early spring, cut New Gold lantana back hard to about 4 to 6 inches tall to make room for new growth.

My third Golden Me-

right perennial that needs some winter protection in northern Mississippi.

Just because it’s been a while since these plants were introduced doesn’t mean they aren’t outstanding choices for today. This weekend, go out and pick few of these Golden Medallion oldies but goodies to bring home for your landscape.

dallion plant is Victoria Blue salvia. I really like to have a few annual salvias in my landscape because you can’t beat their almost gaudy splash of color. But I think every landscape can benefit from one of the perennial salvias, which tend to be a little subdued by comparison.

In 1998, Victoria Blue salvia was selected as a Mississippi Medallion winner. It displays rich, deep-blue flowers on spikes from summer into fall. This plant grows to about 18 inches tall and 12 inches wide. It is an up-

Better than friend Twinkies Browned pound cake makes for a supremely decadent treat

BY ALISON LADMAN Associated Press

When we ¿rst encountered deep-fried, bourbonsoaked Twinkies, we were a little smitten. Until, that is, we realized we could do so much better.

Better as in ditching the highly processed snack cakes and substituting a truly amazing slab of homemade pound cake, all rich and dense and ready to sponge up some booze.

Which is what we did next; we drizzled each slice with a generous glug of bourbon.

And no need to use the good stŭ here. Anything you’d consider using as a mixer will be ¿ne.

An ample dose of butter to pan-fry our slices until nicely crisped and warmed doesn’t hurt their Àavor, either. Now all you have to do is serve — warm, please! — with fresh berries and whipped cream

or ice cream. Take that, Twinkies.

Butter-browned bourbon-basted pound cake Start to finish: 2 hours (30 minutes active) Servings: 12 4 whole eggs, room temperature 2 egg yolks, room temperature 1 tablespoon water 1 cup sugar 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pan frying 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 teaspoon almond extract 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt 13/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons (8 ounces) allpurpose flour, sifted 3/4 cup bourbon Berries, to serve Whipped cream, to serve

Heat the oven to 350 F. Mist an 8-inch loaf pan with cooking spray, then line the bottom and up the 2 long sides with kitchen parchment.

In a small bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg yolks and water.

In a large bowl, use an electric mixer on mediumhigh to beat together the sugar, butter, vanilla and almond extracts, and the salt until very light and Àŭy, about 5 minutes.

While mixing, add the egg mixture, a couple tablespoons at a time, until well emulsi¿ed after each addition. The adding of the eggs should take about 5 minutes.

Working in 2 batches, fold in the Àour gently but thoroughly. Transfer to the prepared pan and spread to smooth the top. Gently tap the pan on the counter to release any air bubbles.

Bake on the oven’s center rack for 55 to 65 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted at the center comes out clean.

Cool in the pan for 15 minutes, then turn out onto a

rack to cool for another 20 minutes.

When the cake is mostly cool, slice the ends ŏ, then slice the loaf into 12 generous 1/2-inch-thick slices. Brush both sides of each slice liberally with bourbon.

In a large skillet, melt a bit of butter over mediumhigh, swirling to thoroughly coat the bottom of the pan. Working in batches, fry the pound cake 3 to 4 slices at a time, for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until toasty brown, adding additional butter between batches. Carefully transfer the toasted slices to a platter while you fry the remaining slices. Serve warm, with berries and whipped cream, if desired.

Leftovers can be cooled and kept in an airtight container for 3 days, gently rewarming in a skillet.

On the surface, ramps are a lovely harbinger of spring, wild leeks that are unable to be cultivated, hence part of their mystique (think trües).

They also are one of the ¿rst vegetables to appear in farmers markets and on chefs’ menus after a winter of tubers and citrus.

They essentially taste like a very garlicky leek or scallion. But the attention they’ve had has put them ¿rmly on a pedestal, seeming out of reach of mere home cooks.

At the moment, some people still think it’s cool to worship the mighty ramp, and others pronounce ramps “yesterday.” I think the very idea of fashion and a member of the onion family in one sentence is just weird.

I think the Àavor is fantastic, and I love that you can use the whole thing, stem to stern.

Pasta salad with chicken, green olives and ramp vinaigrette Start to finish: 25 minutes Servings: 8 1 pound dried penne 1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon extravirgin olive oil, divided About 40 ramps, cleaned, roots trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (including leaves) 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar 1 tablespoon honey 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard 1 teaspoon kosher salt, or more to taste 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper, or more to taste 4 cups cubed cooked chicken 1 cup roughly chopped green olives 1/2 cup packed torn fresh basil Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package directions.

Drain, then rinse under cool water.

Set aside.

Meanwhile, in a medium skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add the ramps and saute for 10 minutes, or until very tender. Set aside.

Once the ramps are cooked, in a food processor combine a little more than half of the ramps, the remaining 1/2 cup of olive oil, the vinegar, honey, Dijon, salt and pepper. Puree until smooth.

In a large bowl combine the cooked ramps, cooked and cooled pasta, vinaigrette, chicken, olives and basil. Toss well to combine thoroughly.

Roasted chickpeas, grilled cheese combine for a robust salad

BY ALISON LADMAN Associated Press

Roasted chickpeas can be a surprisingly meaty snack. They also can be a delicious addition to grain and fresh salads, adding a savory, crunchy component to an otherwise humdrum dish.

In this case, we start by roasting canned chickpeas after tossing them with olive oil, smoked paprika and cumin seeds. Next up, we sear long sticks of halloumi, a Greek cheese that can be heated without melting (try it on the grill this summer). The whole thing is combined with a lemony dressing, cooked and cooled farro and chopped roasted red peppers.

The result is a ro-

bust salad that is just right for spring. Want to make it more of a meal? Add some cooked shrimp.

Warm roasted chickpea, halloumi and farro salad Start to finish: 40 minutes, Servings: 6 1 cup pearled farro 15-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and patted dry 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika 2 teaspoons cumin seeds Kosher salt and ground black pepper 8.8-ounce package halloumi cheese, cut into 1/2 -inch fingers 2 tablespoons lemon juice 2 teaspoons honey

Associated Press

12-ounce jar roasted red peppers, drained and chopped Heat the oven to 400 F. Place the farro in a medium saucepan and

add enough water to cover by 1 inch. Cover and bring to a boil.

Lower heat to a simmer and cook for 18 to 20 minutes, or until tender. Drain in a mesh

strainer.

Meanwhile, spread the chickpeas on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.

Sprinkle with the pa-

prika and cumin seeds, then season lightly with salt and pepper. Stir to coat the beans. Roast for 20 to 30 minutes, or until browned and starting to crisp.

While the chickpeas cook, in a nonstick skillet over medium-high, heat 1 tablespoon of the remaining olive oil. Add the halloumi pieces and sear on each side until lightly browned, about 3 minutes per side. Cut into 1/2-inch chunks. Set aside.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil, the lemon juice and honey. Season with a pinch each of salt and pepper. Add the farro and stir well. Add the chickpeas, halloumi and roasted red peppers.

Mother is worried about her son WIZARD OF ID

DILBERT

GARFIELD

FORT KNOX

PICKLES

Dear Annie: We raised our son in the Midwest, and paid for his tuition to follow his dream to go to an Ivy League college where he met his future wife. Now that he is married, he lives in a large east coast city and is surrounded by his wife’s family. We barely hear from him.

Our son and his wife go on luxury vacations with her family and spend time with them at the holidays.

On those rare occasions when we do see him, he is not particularly nice. This has caused some problems between my husband and me, because he accepts the reality of the situation better than I do.

I am truly heartbroken.

This was a little boy that I adored. I never imagined that the later chapters of his life would cause me so much sadness. I have no idea what to do and instead try very hard to keep him out of my thoughts.

How is it possible that boys raised in loving homes can so easily leave them behind? Any suggestions? — Mom of Three Dear Mom: It is terribly sad, but not uncommon, for young men to marry women who discourage closeness with the husband’s family. And based on your son’s reaction, he has grown accustomed to it and may even prefer

Annie’s Mailbox it that way. There is no point crying over it or criticizing your son repeatedly because he doesn’t spend more time with you. This will only make every interaction unpleasant and reinforce the same behavior.

Here are our suggestions: All conversation should be positive.

Ask about his wife and children with genuine interest and caring.

Keep your jealousy in check. Send short, newsy emails, so your son doesn’t feel distant from his family.

Get involved in local organizations and activities to fill your hours with interesting things and have something to talk about with your son that doesn’t involve your constant disappointment. If you can afford it, visit him periodically, without expecting him to entertain you.

Surely there are things to do — museums, plays, walking tours — and you can try to meet up for lunch or dinner. And please make a real effort to

concentrate on your other children and the things that make you happy.

Dear Annie: My beautiful 20-year-old granddaughter loves her motorcycle. She is a sophomore in college, with a full-time job, both of which are now on hold. Monday night, she was riding to see her boyfriend, when a guy made a sudden U-turn. He hit her, tossing her like a rag doll over the handlebars. She’s currently undergoing her second of multiple surgeries. She has two broken wrists, a broken elbow, a fractured pelvis and a fractured femur. It will be three months before she can stand.

I know accidents happen. But please tell your readers to be careful. She shouldn’t have to pay such a high price for someone’s negligence. She has wonderful family and friends for support, which is a blessing. This will be hard to handle, but we will all make it through this difficult time. — California Dear California: We are so sorry to hear about your granddaughter’s accident.

She is fortunate to have such a loving family to help her get back on her feet. Your letter is a reminder to all drivers to pay attention to their surroundings at all times.
