Kids get ag lesson with lambs

BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com

The morning got off to a “baaaaaaa” start for some Oakland Baptist School youngsters.

In a good way.

The Kossuth FFA Chapter introduced the three preschool and kindergarten classes to five lambs early Thursday

morning.

Brad Gillmore — Kossuth Vocational Agriculture Instructor — provided the animals for the showing.

“This fits into some of the things the children have been learning,” said Gillmore whose daughter, Meredith, is part of the kindergarten class. “It also gives us a chance to experience

the kids to FFA.” The showing was part of the children’s study of Psalm 23.

The youngsters got a chance to pet and feed the animals — Spot, Grace, Gabe and Lucas — with a bottle. Gillmore also brought a 1 year-old lamb to show how big the animals get Please see LAMBS | 10A

Former Booneville attorney Thomas Keenum reported to federal prison this week to begin serving a 22-month sentence for bank fraud.

Keenum was ordered to report Monday to the United States Federal Correctional Institution in Butner, North Carolina where he will serve the sentence handed down last December.

The former attorney was sentenced to serve 22 months in prison on Dec. 30, 2011, after pleading guilty in August 2010 to one count of bank fraud in a scheme to illegally obtain loans against a property he owned in Alcorn County. He admitted to falsifying title opinions on the property in order to obtain hundreds of thousands of dollars of loans against it.

In his plea, he admitted that he sought and obtained documents from other local attorneys indicating the property had no liens against it based on information he provided to the attorneys, when in fact he knew other loans were already in place against the property.

The names of the attorneys who provided those title opinions have never been made public..

He was ordered to report to begin serving his prison sentence no later than 2 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 27. The order imposing his sentence requested he be incarcerated at a facility where he can receive appropriate treatment for medical issues.

Volunteers sought to do their part for Park Day

BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

The National Park Service needs your help in keeping Corinth’s historical treasures beautiful.

The annual NPS Park Day for Corinth is set for Saturday, March 31, from 9 a.m. until noon.

“This is a very important thing people can do, even in a very short period of time,” said Park Ranger Jim Minor.

During the Park Day, volunteers will help park rangers improve the appearance of two NPS sites in Corinth — the Contraband Camp and the Civil War Interpretive Center. Volunteers will spread mulch around trees at the Contraband Camp and the rose garden at the Interpretive Center.

Park Day is open to all ages.

Participants are asked to call or come by the Interpretive Center to sign up so that NPS personnel will know how big of a project to plan for the day. Volunteers should also bring their own work gloves on Park Day. Since 1996, the Civil War Trust has sponsored Park Day. It is a hands-on preservation event to help Civil War battlefields and historic sites take on maintenance projects of all sizes.

Activities are chosen by each participating site to meet their own particular needs and can range from raking leaves to hauling trash to painting signs and trail buildings.

BHS plans ‘Welcome Back’ parade for successful team

BY BOBBY J. SMITH bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

It’s almost time to welcome back the boys.

The community is invited to show its support for the Biggersville High School boys basketball team at a “Welcome Back” parade on Saturday.

“Everyone is invited to celebrate the basketball season,” said BHS Assistant Principal Pete Seago. “We will either be champions or runners up when they get back, and anyone with ties to Biggersville are invited out to welcome them back.”

Participants are asked to meet on the BHS campus at approximately 11:30 a.m. Saturday.

They will then convene to the gym, where they will get ready to welcome the team home. Supporters are encouraged to bring signs, posters, pompoms — and lots of maroon and white.

Business and Computer teacher Deborah Jackson emphasized how important fans are to the team.

“When I watched the game

on the internet, a man kept talking about the fans, how the team fed off the fans and how they really love our support,” Jackson said. “It makes a big difference that we’re behind them.”

Seago expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support.

“We appreciate all the support given to the school and the team throughout the season,” Seago said. “Everyone played a big role in the success we’ve had.”

Biggersville (28-7), division champs and North Half Champions, plays for the 1A state title today at 2:30 vs.

Coldwater. The game will air on WXRZ. There will be a short ceremony in the gym with remarks from coaches. The team will enter the campus with a law enforcement escort.

“It’s just to show them how proud the whole community is of Coach Little and the team and how well they played and represented the whole school,” said Jackson. “We’re very proud of them. No matter what the outcome is, we’re proud of them.”

Sheriff’s auction brings in more than $27,000

BY JEFF YORK For the Daily Corinthian

SELMER, Tenn. — An auction by the McNairy County Sheriff’s Department generated over $27,000 that will be used to help fund the operation of the department.

The auction items were mainly vehicles that had been seized by the sheriff’s department following drug arrests.

McNairy County Sheriff Guy Buck said the vehicle auction brought in $27,400. A portion of the money will be paid as

commission to the auction company and some to the Selmer Police Department for their work with the county’s narcotics unit.

Buck said he felt the revenue from the auction for the MCSD would be around $20,000. The sheriff said this money would go into the department’s drug fund and would be used to benefit the department.

“This auction is a way for us to save money for the taxpayers and to help us buy equipment for our

officers,” said Buck. “We were really pleased with the response to this auction.”

There were 18 vehicles, two four-wheelers, a motorcycle and a lawnmower in the auction, plus some other miscellaneous items that were included in the sale held on Feb. 18.

The sheriff said the department’s impound lot would not hold many more than 20 vehicles and that was the reason for the timing of the aucPlease see AUCTION | 3A

treated to bites of muscadine cobbler and hummingbird cake.

“We were extremely pleased with the crowd,” said wildlife committee member Sandy Mitchell. “We branched out to some vendors this year and that also seemed to attract some people.”

Besides the wildlife treats, barbecue and hot dogs were provided by The Rollin’ Rumps BBQ team of Brian Coleman and Kenny and Lisa Hastings. Garvin Phillips of the Alcorn County Hunting and Fishing Club also had Brunswick stew for those less adventurous eaters.

“Our dishes were down this year,” said Mitchell.

“Being held during the week I see where if could effect the working folks, but we would like to see more next year.”

The number fell from 152 to 95 dishes this year.

Those in attendance got a chance to get information on programs and services available, look at old implements and purchase knives and camouflage hunting clothes from vendors at the event.

“The community support over the years has made the event successful,” said Mitchell. “We

are in a good area of the state where people work to protect the wildlife for the future generations.”

This year’s adult gun raffle featured a wood stock Mossberg 535 pump 12-gauge shotgun that was won by Larry Muse. Nicole Phillips won the CorinthAlcorn Bank Association sponsored youth gun — a wood stock Harrington & Richardson .243 caliber rifle with scope.

Absentee ballot reform could reduce fraud Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann’s office released a report that may allow the state to pay some attention to its most serious election problem: absentee ballots.

A constitutional amendment requiring voters to show an identification card won approval in a referendum last November. While it awaits Justice Department approval, there has been little doubt that unsupervised actions that take place in the days leading up to an election have far more potential to be fraudulent.

Hosemann’s report noted several examples: Counties in which absentee ballots totaled more than 10 percent of the votes cast in recent elections, instances of a high percentage of absentee ballots being filled out somewhere other than the circuit clerk’s office, a single person signing many absentee ballots as a witness, and circuit clerk’s offices accepting absentee ballots that did not cite a reason for voting in advance, as state law requires.

Republicans in the Legislature, who got the voter ID referendum on the 2011 ballot, are sure to seek reform of absentee balloting, too.

They are likely to support three bills pending in the House that Hosemann says would improve the absentee balloting process and reduce fraud.

One of the bills sets up a voter ID system, but the Justice Department will have the final say on that issue. The other two address provisions for assisting voters in casting a ballot and authorize the use of electronic signatures for soldiers stationed overseas.

The Legislature should take note of one other trend mentioned in the report: absentee balloting, for whatever reason, appears to be on the increase in the state. This probably has less to do with fraud than it does with other common-sense factors, such as more people forced to work outside their county of residence because of the tougher economy.

Hosemann’s report studied trends in 18 counties with high percentages of absentee voting and said the majority of these votes are still being cast in person at the circuit clerk’s office. In response, the state should consider adopting some form of early voting, which is available in 32 states. ... ... In theory, expanding the hours of supervised voting ought to give more people an incentive to participate.

Letter to the Editor Ross has true leadership skills To the editor: Social Security will spend $773 billion this year which will increase to $1.4 trillion by 2022.

Every year payments will outstrip the funds received from the payroll taxes. This process will drain the fund leading to a deficit.

Under current law, Social Security will have to cut benefits and will be unable to pay full benefits. Congress has just passed the Middle Class Relief Act of 2012 which means that instead of solving a problem, it is simply kicking the can down the street.

To provide a spending cut is good, but should reduce spending in another area and not from the Social Security trust fund.

U.S. Congressman Alan Nunnelee of Northeast Mississippi voted for this bill to take the funds from the Social Security trust fund. This vote along with his other votes is simply to follow instructions and go with the flow. Democrat Max Baucus said this was “very good for the country.”

Who does Nunnelee listen to? We need a congressmen who displays true leadership and not be a part of a herd.

In my opinion, we need to vote in the primary for Henry Ross who will show true leadership and not simply go with the flow.

Once you examine his background, you will find he is a Constitutional lawyer, a mayor, judge and worked in the Justice Department for the Bush administration.

He has the leadership we need.

It is time we took inventory of all of these wars we have fought since the Army of Desert Storm restored the emir of Kuwait to his throne.

That 1991 war was seen as a triumph of American arms and a model of the global cooperation to come in establishing the New World Order of George H.W. Bush.

But the savage sanctions we imposed on a defeated Iraq and the planting of U.S. bases on Saudi soil that is home to Mecca was a casus belli for Osama bin Laden.

Ten years after the triumph of Bush I, he brought down the twin towers.

This atrocity caused us to plunge into Afghanistan to dump over the Taliban and eradicate or expel alQaida. We succeeded, then decided to stay on and build a nation. After 10 years, what have we accomplished to justify the immense price we have paid?

In 2003, George W. Bush, seeking to complete the work begun by his father, invaded Iraq. But Saddam had no role in 9/11 and was no threat to America. Iraq did not even have weapons of mass destruction.

Today, after eight years of war, 4,500 dead, 35,000 wounded and a trillion dollars sunk, the 15,000 Americans we left behind are largely holed up in the Green Zone, as Iraq descends into sectarian, civil and ethnic war.

What did it all profit us?

How goes Libya after the U.S.-NATO intervention to dethrone Moammar Gad-

hafi?

Here is the Rand Corp.’s Frederic Wehrey: “A weak transitional government confronts armed militias. ... Defiant young men with heavy weapons control Libya’s airports, harbors and oil installations. Tribes and smugglers rule desert areas south of the capital. Clashes among various militias for turf and political power rage. ...

“Libya teeters dangerously on the brink.”

Now we see a push for intervention in Syria from Sens. John McCain, Lindsey Graham and Joe Lieberman. That would make us allies of al-Qaida, the Muslim Brotherhood and Hamas, all of which also seek the fall of Bashar alAssad and the rise of a Sunni regime in Damascus.

But it is the clamor for a U.S. war on Iran that grows loudest.

But why, when the U.S. intelligence community still claims to have no hard evidence Iran has even decided to build a bomb?

Since Ronald Reagan went home, the United States has attacked or invaded Panama, Iraq, Somalia, Haiti, Bosnia, Serbia, Afghanistan, Iraq again, and Libya.

How have Americans benefited from all this war? How have the Chinese suffered these 20 years by not having been in on the action?

(Clementi came out to his parents shortly before leaving for school.) Ravi and a friend engaged in juvenile banter, making fun of Clementi for being gay, “poor” and uncool. It’s painful to read, but no different than what high-school students say about one another.

Clementi and Ravi barely talked when they lived together. One night, Clementi asked Ravi to leave him alone with a nonstudent in his mid-20s for what turned out to be an assignation.

From a friend’s room across the hall, Ravi briefly turned on his webcam and saw the two in an embrace. He derisively tweeted that he saw his roommate “making out with a dude.”

Clementi later saw Ravi’s tweet and agonized about what to do. In the meantime, he asked for the room again for another tryst, and this time Ravi tweeted that people should tap into his webcam for a show. But Clementi turned off Ravi’s computer, and the viewing never happened. Clem-

enti requested a change of roommates. With that, and disciplinary action against Ravi, it should have ended.

There are no laws against obnoxious disregard for the feelings of a sensitive young man. The case against him for invasion of privacy is shaky since he apparently didn’t expect to see or see any “intimate parts” (as specified in the law) the first time around, and the second time no one saw anything.

The charges for “bias intimidation” are weaker. One gets the sense that Ravi may well have hit it off with Clementi if his roommate had been more gregarious. And one can imagine him being just as scornful if Clementi’s sexual partner had been an unattractive woman.

Trying to right a wrong that the law can’t reach, the prosecutors are guilty of perpetrating one themselves.

State Associated Press

Media heiress Celia Emmerich dies JACKSON — Celia Emmerich, the matriarch of the Emmerich newspaper family, died Thursday at her home in Jackson. She was 80.

The family said in a statement that she died of a heart attack.

Celia Emmerich was the widow of former Associated Press board member and ex-Greenwood Commonwealth editor/ publisher John Emmerich.

John Emmerich died in 1995.

Funeral services are 4 p.m. Monday at Covenant Presbyterian Church in Jackson.

Mrs. Emmerich, a native of Gulfport, moved to Greenwood in 1973 when her husband bought the Commonwealth. She sold advertising, worked in circulation and wrote feature articles.

Mrs. Emmerich was active in Greenwood Little Theatre and established a dropout prevention program at Greenwood schools.

Her son, Wyatt, took over as president of Emmerich Newspapers when his father died. The company has 25 newspapers.

High court sets execution dates for 2 JACKSON — The Mississippi Supreme Court has set execution dates for death row inmates Larry Matthew Puckett and William Gerald Mitchell.

The court Thursday set an execution date of March 20 for Puckett and March 22 for Mitchell.

Both men had appeals

to the U.S. Supreme Court turned down in February. Attorney General Jim Hood said both men are now out of appeals.

The executions will be at 6 p.m. at the state penitentiary at Parchman.

Mississippi executions are by lethal injection.

Puckett was convicted and sentenced to death in 1996 for the sexual assault and beating death of a woman in her Forrest County home. Puckett was convicted in the 1995 death of Rhonda Griffis, 28, of the Sunrise community. Authorities said Griffis died from blows to the head.

Mitchell was sentenced to death in 1998 in Harrison County for the killing of Patty Milliken, a 38-year-old store clerk, on the night of Nov. 21, 1995. Authorities said Mitchell took Milliken from the store where she worked, brought her under the north end of the Popp’s Ferry Road bridge and killed her by beating her and driving his car over the top half of her body.

Department of Health asks for AIDS funds JACKSON — Representatives of the Mississippi Health Department say they’re requesting $2.5 million from the state Legislature to match a federal grant to treat people with HIV and AIDS. A prominent lawmaker says there’s little chance the funding will be granted because money is tight.

The Ryan White HIV/ AIDS Program provides funding for services related to HIV and AIDS, like paying for medications,

providing health insurance and transportation to doctors’ appointments.

The program helps more than half a million people nationwide each year.

Democratic Rep. Steve Holland of Plantersville is a longtime supporter of those with HIV and AIDS, but says the chances for funding are “slim to none.” Holland is a former chairman of the House Public Health Committee.

McComb OKs funds for outdoor tourism McCOMB — The city of McComb will join in the Scenic Rivers Alliance and kick in $10,000 to support it.

The Enterprise-Journal reports that the board of selectmen voted 5-1 this week to join Amite and Pike counties in the alliance.

The alliance is meant to promote outdoor tourism such as birdwatching, fishing and hunting in southwest Mississippi.

McComb Recreation Department Director Joseph Parker will head up the alliance.

State seeks to close tax loopholes JACKSON — A Mississippi House panel is supporting a plan to change tax law to raise $30 million more in corporate income taxes.

House Bill 970 passed the Ways and Means Committee on Thursday.

It would close a loophole where companies that do business in Mississippi can now pay royalties to a parent company in a state with no corporate income

tax, allowing them avoid Mississippi taxes on that income. For example, a company can pay royalties to the home company for the use of trademarks and logos.

Another provision would tax companies that solicit business in Mississippi, issue credit cards in Mississippi, have independent contractors or franchisees in the state or provide services from outside the state to people within the state.

Officials describe both changes as modernizing state tax rules.

Death row inmate appeals conviction JACKSON — The Mississippi Supreme Court will allow a death row inmate to go back to Lee County Circuit Court to argue his lawyers failed to do a good job at his trial.

William Wilson cited six issues in a post-conviction petition filed with the Supreme Court. On Thursday, the Supreme Court said Wilson could present evidence that his attorneys didn’t do a good job and that he didn’t understand what he was doing when he agreed to let the judge decide his punishment at

trial rather than a jury.

Inmates use a postconviction petition to argue they have found new evidence — or a possible constitutional issue — that could persuade a court to order a new trial.

Wilson pleaded guilty in the death of 2-year-old Mallory Conlee and was sentenced to death in 2007 in Lee County. He also received 20 years for felonious child abuse.

At the time of the girl’s death, authorities said they had received a report that a motorcycle fell on the child’s head. An autopsy showed bruises all over her body and thirddegree burns to her feet.

Authorities said the bruises were in several stages of healing, indicating they had occurred over a time.

Court records show Wilson agreed to plead guilty in March 2007 in exchange for a sentence of life without parole.

However, when questioned by Circuit Judge Thomas J. Gardner III, Wilson said he thought his attorneys could have done a better job. Wilson claimed he hadn’t communicated or seen much of his court-appointed attorneys between his arrest and his plea hearing.

2 horses slain CLARKSDALE — Clarksdale police are investigating what they are calling an animal cruelty case involving the deaths of two horses and shooting of another.

Police Capt. Robbie Linley tells WABG-TV that the owner of the horses found one dead and two shot Wednesday in a pasture.

Linley says investigators believe the shootings happened with the last couple of days.

Linley says one horse was found dead in the pasture and another had to be euthanized.

Linley says a third horse was shot in the ribs and is expected to recover.

Hank the cat sets sights on Senate Associated Press

SPRINGFIELD, Va. — A new U.S. Senate candidate in Virginia wears a tie, has a campaign website and even launched an ad. One big difference? He has a thick coat of fur.

Hank the cat has thrown his paw into the race, running to mock the political status quo. The cat’s owner, Anthony Roberts, says he and his partner set up the campaign as an inside joke. But the campaign’s website has crashed after a

recent spate of publicity.

Hank’s campaign posters show the Maine Coon gazing upward, wearing a tie. An ad says Hank, a moderate, will work to make sure America stays the greatest land of all.

Gingrich retreats to focus his campaign back home

BY KEN THOMAS Associated Press

ATLANTA — Newt Gingrich’s political career is coming full circle: The state that nourished his rise to House speaker could strike a fatal blow to his presidential ambitions — even by his own admission.

The former Georgia congressman has acknowledged that a loss in this state’s Super Tuesday primary would cripple his campaign. He’s betting he can make another comeback in Georgia and a series of Southern primaries during the next two weeks in a go-for-broke strategy to outlast his opponents and seize upon conservative unease with Mitt Romney.

“I have to win Georgia, I think, to be credible in the race,” Gingrich said Thursday, responding to a question during a breakfast with business leaders. A day earlier, he said a victory here would be a “key building block that we have to have to move forward in the presidential campaign.”

Gingrich told the Cobb Chamber of Commerce that Romney is “Massachusetts moderate baloney” and Rick Santorum is “Pennsylvania big labor baloney. But they’re baloney. They’re not going to fundamentally change Washington.”

He has had perhaps the most topsy-turvy campaign of any Republican, nearly imploding last year and then rising in Iowa before facing millions of dollars’ worth of negative attacks that weakened his campaign. He rebounded to win South Carolina’s primary on Jan. 21, but since has been on a long losing streak, falling far

“I have to win Georgia, I think, to be credible in the race.”

Newt Gingrich Republican Candidate behind in the hunt for delegates.

The comeback plan is fairly simple: Win Georgia and make a strong showing in neighboring Tennessee, Oklahoma and Ohio, thus picking up enough delegates in the process to compete with Romney and Santorum.

He then hopes to pivot to Mississippi and Alabama on March 13 and stay in contention for large-delegate contests in Texas and California.

All bets may be off with a loss in Georgia.

“If he doesn’t win in Georgia, where does he win?” said Merle Black, an Emory University political scientist. “In order to have a Southern strategy, he first has to have a Georgia strategy.”

Low on cash, Gingrich’s cause has been aided by the outside group Winning Our Future, a super PAC backing the campaign that recently received another multimillion-dollar injection from Las Vegas billionaire Sheldon Adelson. The fresh funding bankrolled a large ad buy in states crucial to Gingrich’s strategy.

Gingrich boosters say Georgia and other states on the upcoming primary map share many characteristics with South Carolina, giving him a chance to rebound. With Romney facing questions among conservatives, the new ads on the air and a long slate of primaries ahead, Gingrich may have little incentive to exit.

“With Santorum’s decline, I believe, Newt will re-emerge as the antiestablishment candidate with a record of economic success,” said Rick Tyler, a senior adviser to Winning Our Future and a former Gingrich aide.

“The upcoming states are receptive to him and his message.”

Gingrich’s campaign evokes an underdog mentality. At rallies, aides blast Rick Derringer’s 1980s song “Real American” — otherwise known as wrestler Hulk Hogan’s anthem — to pump up the crowd. The song’s refrain: “Fight for what’s right — fight for your life!”

Right now, it all hinges on Georgia.

At rallies across the state, the campaign has cut-out gas buckets to collect small donations, a reference to the energy plan Gingrich says would reduce gas prices to $2.50 a gallon. Gingrich routinely asks supporters to pass out leaflets at gas stations to spread the message and urges people to type “Newt (equals) $2.50 a gallon” in their Facebook status lines.

Although he lives in the suburbs of Washington, D.C., Gingrich has played up his local ties, making stops at the University of West Georgia, where he taught geography and history during the 1970s, and the Georgia Statehouse, where he was joined Wednesday by dozens of legislators wearing buttons that read, “I’m in Newt’s Army.”

Nation’s picture brightens, but incomes, spending weak

WASHINGTON — Steady declines in applications for unemployment aid are pointing to another strong month of hiring in February.

A healthy job market normally drives faster growth. But Americans’ after-tax income actually fell in January, which led to a fourth straight month of weak consumer spending.

The mixed data highlighted a flurry of reports Thursday that suggest the recovery will stay bumpy.

Manufacturing growth slowed and construction spending dipped, while auto and retail sales both climbed.

Consumers are also being hit with higher gas prices that are only expected to rise further in the coming months.

“The rise (in incomes) was reasonable but given the strong job gains, I was hoping that the increases in wages and salaries would be a bit greater than they were,” said Joel Naroff, chief economist for Naroff Economic Advisors. “Still, this source of funds is on the rise so that is good news.”

Jennifer Lee, an economist at BMO Capital Market, put it more bluntly: “Stronger job creation is not generating more spending.”

Weekly applications for unemployment benefits dipped last week to a seasonally adjusted 351,000, the Labor Department said. And the four-week average of applications, which smooths out weekly fluctuations in the data, fell to 354,000. Both are the lowest levels in four years.

“The labor market appears to have strengthened markedly over the last few months.”

Paul Ashworth senior U.S. economist for Capital Economics Applications for unemployment aid have fallen steadily since the early fall and are down nearly 15 percent since October. When applications drop consistently below 375,000, it usually signals that hiring is strong enough to lower the unemployment rate.

Many economists predict employers added more than 200,000 net jobs in February for the third straight month.

“The labor market appears to have strengthened markedly over the last few months,” said Paul Ashworth, senior U.S. economist for Capital Economics. Ashworth predicts the economy added 220,000 net jobs last month and the unemployment rate fell for the sixth straight month, to 8.2 percent.

Consumer spending increased 0.2 percent in January, the Commerce Department said. That’s better than December’s reading of no change.

And income rose 0.3 percent, the second straight monthly increase.

Still, after paying taxes and adjusting for inflation, incomes actually dipped in January. That reflected a big increase in tax payments last month, partly because of the expiration of a tax credit.

At the same time, inflation-adjusted spending was flat for the third straight month. That was partly because of warmer weather, which allowed people to spend less to heat their homes.

Strong hiring in December and January, rather than pay raises, helped boost income. That trend may fuel more consumer spending and support solid growth for the economy in coming months.

Consumer spending accounts for 70 percent of economic activity.

Manufacturing activity grew more slowly in February, according to the Institute for Supply Management’s monthly index. U.S. factories received fewer new orders and paid higher prices for raw materials.

The ISM index fell to 52.4, the lowest reading since November. But that followed three straight monthly increases. Any reading above 50 indicates growth. By that measure, manufacturing has grown for 31 straight months.

The report “is hardly a disaster, but it does support our view that the economy is not quite as strong as recent data have led others to believe,” said Paul Dales, senior U.S. economist with Capital Economics, in a note to clients.

The building industry also cooled offed in January after five straight months of gains in construction spending.

A big drop in commercial building projects, such as factories, hotels and power plants, caused a slight decline, the Commerce Department said.

But the dip comes after previous monthly figures were revised much higher.

Nasdaq Y2K The Nasdaq composite index, whose dot-com heyday was more than a decade ago, has investors recalling a time without iPads and camera phones.

That’s because the index briefly broke through 3,000 Wednesday for the first time since Dec. 13, 2000. This year, the Nasdaq is up 14.7 percent. That’s more than double the 6.2 percent rise in the Dow and well ahead of the 9.3 percent climb of the Standard & Poor’s 500 stock index.

The Nasdaq peaked above 5,000 in March 2000 but fell to a low of 1,114 by October 2002.

Unlike the Dow and the S&P 500, which are nearing records today, the Nasdaq has climbed just halfway back.

The Nasdaq contains more than 3,000 companies, many of them relative startups compared with those in the S&P 500 index.

But experts say the Nasdaq’s gains reflect long-term currents that could lift tech stocks through 2012 and beyond. Many companies put off replacing worn-out technology during the recession. To compete and

Yelp’s IPO

March S&P 500 rally?

Yelp’s website lets users rate restaurants, bars and other establishments, but now investors get to deliver their own assessment of the online review service.

The San Franciscobased company is expected to make its stock market debut as early as today. It has set a range of $12 to $14 for the initial public offering.

The S&P 500 has a history of performing well in March, which bodes well for investors coming off a strong 2012 so far.

Since 1945, March has ranked as the fourth-best month of the year for the S&P 500, posting an average gain of 1.4 percent. The high point was in 2000 when the index jumped 9.7 percent. The worst was 20 years earlier, when it sank 10.2 percent.

JACKSON — Devonta Pollard threw a block party on Thursday.

Unfortunately, the Booneville Blue Devils were the guests of honor.

Pollard, a 6-8 senior, swatted away 10 Booneville shots, altered another handful of attempts and messed around and got a triple-double as Kemper County knocked off the reigning Class 3A champions 75-65 in the fourth and final championship game at the Mississippi Coliseum.

The headliner of the Clarion-Ledger’s Dandy Dozen team finished with a game-

high 28 points and pulled down 10 rebounds to go along with his 10 blocks.

Booneville, which knocked off Division 1-3A rival Corinth in last season’s title match, never led and -- outside the proverbial 0-0 tie -- trailed for all of 19 seconds. Jordan Miller knotted the game at 2-2 early in the contest, but seven points by Pollard and back-to-back threes by Jonathan Junior staked Kemper to a 19-10 lead after one.

The lead reached double digits in the second on Junior’s third extra-point bucket. Pollard, who had 12 points, eight boards and seven blocks at the break, pushed the ad-

vantage to 18 with 2:40 left in the half.

Kemper (28-8) took a 35-19 lead at the break with Booneville (32-4) missing 24 of its first 30 shots. The Wildcats lead reached 19 before Booneville cut it to 10 -- at 51-41 -after three.

Five straight points, capped by a Kenny Paul Geno threepointer, pulled Booneville to within 55-48 with 6:19 remaining. Pollard countered with an old-fashioned threepoint play on the ensuing trip then started a Decorey Mason’s transition bucket by sending a Booneville shot backwards toward mid-court.

Mason’s bucket with 5:15

remaining would be the Wildcats’ last, but the South champions would maintain at least an eight-point lead the remainder of the way. Kemper staved off any Booneville comeback by converting on 15 of 18 tries from the line the final 3:39.

Keldrick Lesley paced Booneville with 24 points, including 16 of the Devils’ 46 in the second half. The senior finished the night 12-of-14 from the line.

Pollard finished 9-of-16 from the floor and 10-of-14 from the line. The Wildcats were 18-of-21 from the line Please see 3A | 9A

nut 80-36 in the North State Tournament championship just 12 days earlier. The Lady Wildcats, making their first appearance in the title game since falling to West Union in the 1A event in 1997, made it a game early and trailed just 13-9 after one quarter.

“We talked about the (earlier meeting) one day, then we looked forward, not behind,” said Sparks. “It’s the state championship game, we knew Walnut was going to come to play.”

New Site began to break the game open in the second after finding the range from deep and getting stops out of its trapping defense. Two

buckets by Shelby Stricklen and a pair of three-pointers

by Christy Clark highlighted an 11-0 quarter-opening run gave New Site a 15-point lead at the 5:42 mark.

Walnut (26-9) had the bulk of its 19 first-half turnovers in the second quarter. The Lady Wildcats made just one field goal in the frame, that coming courtesy Presley Pulse with one minute left until recess.

“The second quarter killed us,” said Walnut Head Coach Larry Tribble. “We understood their trap pretty well, we just didn’t execute.”

Lady Cardinals upset Ripley’s hopeful repeat

BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

JACKSON — Ripley trailed for just 16 seconds in its repeat bid.

That was just enough for the Belmont Lady Cardinals.

Leslie Robinson’s steal and drive to the rack provided Belmont with its only lead and the Lady Cardinals their second Class 3A Girls’ title in three seasons with a 39-38 come-frombehind win over their Division 1-3A rivals.

Belmont (32-4) took three of the four meetings with Ripley, winning the regular-season clash and the Division 1-3A Tournament title over an 11day span prior to Thursday’s

matchup. Ripley (28-5) entered as the No. 1 seed from the North following a 42-39 win in the North State Tournament championship.

Ripley led by as many as 11 in the first half and seemed destined for a repeat after a 4-0 run in the fourth put the Lady Tigers up 34-24 with 4:42 remaining. Belmont refused to lay down and closed the game on a 15-4 advantage, holding Ripley scoreless the final 2:04.

Robinson and Kelsie Montgomery led the comeback, combining for 13 of the 15 points in the game-closing run. Prior to the final 3:13, the pair had combined for just two points -- including a 1-for-10

showing in the first half.

Montgomery sandwiched three-balls around Robinson’s old-fashioned three-point play to pull Belmont to within 3835 with 1:49 remaining. Ripley came away empty on a layup attempt and missed the front end of a one-and-one with 1:32 left.

Belmont, which started the game 0-of-15 and shot just 14-of-59 overall, missed three straight shots but came away with the offensive board each time. Ripley rebounded the fourth miss, but Robinson promptly stole the ball in backcourt and cut the deficit to 3837 with 29 seconds left.

Another Lady Tiger turnover

-- one of 16 in the second half -- led to Robinson’s go-ahead bucket with 16 seconds remaining. Ripley missed a sure layup with 5 seconds left, but got the ball back on a turnover with 3.4 seconds remaining.

Ripley’s third turnover in the final 48 seconds sealed Belmont’s come-from-behind win.

Ripley led 8-0 after one as Belmont missed all 13 shots from the floor. The Lady Tigers led by 11 twice in the final 4:17 of the half before Angelia Allen scored seven points in a 9-2 half-closing run that cut the halftime advantage to 17-13.

its lead without the services of leading scorer Morgan Pearson.

The senior tallied just two points in the opening quarter before going to the bench with two fouls. The Lady Royals had outscored the Lady Wildcats 15-2 in the second before Pearson reentered the game with some three minutes left in the half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re making a big run and I turn around and see (Pearson) on the bench,â&#x20AC;? said Sparks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not a one- or two-player team. We play about eight kids and all are capable of contributing.â&#x20AC;?

New Site upped its margin to 49-27 after three. Walnut used a 17-7 advantage in the fourth to cut into the final margin.

Stricklen and Clark each tallied a game-high 16 points for New Site. Stricklen was 7-of10 from the field and added a team-high eight rebounds. Pearson finished with 11, but was just 3-for-12 from the floor and turned the ball over a team-leading six times. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I told (Stricklen) all week in practice that she could have a good game,â&#x20AC;? said Sparks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I figured they were going to show so much attention to Morgan and Christy that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be one-on-one and we were going to get her the ball.â&#x20AC;?

Becky Robinson paced Walnut with 13 points and recorded a double-double with 10 rebounds. Walnut finished with nine more turnovers (26) than field goals.

NEW YORK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Negotiators for baseball players and owners are working toward an agreement to increase the postseason field to 10 teams this season. They had hoped to reach a deal by Thursday, but both sides said talks could continue if they needed additional time to deal with the details of adding a second wild-card team in each league.

The sides have said for weeks a deal is likely.

Earlier they established a March 1 deadline for reaching an agreement.

WINNER: Have positive outlook CONTINUED FROM 2B

Even though you can never be a loser by accepting Christ as Lord and Saviour, you can expect a much more winning knowledge of who you should be and what you should be doing in promoting Christianity throughout the world.

The following holds true for whether you are a winner or loser concerning earthly matters or spiritual matters. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Winner vs. Loserâ&#x20AC;?: The winner is always part of the answer. The loser is always part of the problem. â&#x2013; The winner always has a program. The loser always has an excuse. â&#x2013; The winner sees an answer for every problem. The loser sees a problem for every answer. â&#x2013; The winner sees a green near every sand trap. The loser sees three or four sand traps near every green. â&#x2013; The winner says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;it may be difficult but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible.â&#x20AC;? The loser says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;it may be possible but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too difficult.â&#x20AC;?

Be a winner in your mental attitude toward

the world but also have a winning attitude in your spiritually.

Hebrews 6:7-8 (NIV) â&#x20AC;&#x153;Land that drinks in the rain often falling on it and that produces a crop useful to those for whom it is farmed receives the blessing of God. 8. But land that produces thorns and thistles is worthless and is in danger of being cursed. In the end it will be burned.â&#x20AC;?

Prayer: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thank you Jesus for loving me. I pray that you will give me confidence among my peers, give me wisdom in what I say and do, and lead me in the direction you would have me go. Amen.â&#x20AC;?

Hanging onto â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;fabric of our livesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Lately Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been enjoying some time at the sewing machine, making little summer dresses for our granddaughters. I love picking out the fabric and watching a garment come together -- that is, if I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make a boo-boo and have to re-do something.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing to see the colors and prints of all the cotton materials on the market now, some being reminiscent of those when I was growing up. Creative designers have done fabric matchups for childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clothes that are surprising â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and unpredictable, as they say â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and are sold at top dollar. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m reminded of Dolly Partonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;coat of many colors,â&#x20AC;? which painted a beautiful picture of love in the mindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eye.

Today itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s acceptable to piece a dress together in a similar fashion to an oldtime quilt.

In the midst of sewing a small blue cotton â&#x20AC;&#x153;frockâ&#x20AC;? for a friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s niece, I received an e-mail from my cousin who always shares anything she finds about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;old days.â&#x20AC;? Both of us remember the days when we helped our mothers hang the laundry on the

outdoor clothesline to dry so she forwarded the â&#x20AC;&#x153;rulesâ&#x20AC;? to me.

Lora Ann F o r Huff t h o s e who treaBack Porch sure the memory of those days and for those too young to have experienced them, here we go: Basic rules for clotheslines: â&#x2013; Wash off the clothesline before hanging any clothes. Walk the entire length of each line, wiping with a damp cloth â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to remove dust or residue left by little birds who visited. â&#x2013; Hang the clothes in a certain order: Always hang whites with whites -- and hang them first. â&#x2013; Hang the socks by the toes â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not the top. Hang pants by the bottom or cuffs â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not the waistband. â&#x2013; Never hang a shirt by the shoulders -- always by the tail. What would the neighbors think! â&#x2013; Wash on Mondays, if possible, but never hang clothes out on a Sunday, for Heavenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sake!

Horoscope

BY HOLIDAY MATHIS Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing what a shiny frame and a nice piece of glass can do to bring out the significance of a picture. Mercury has similar talents as he bursts into Aries insisting that everything old is new again.

Well, not everything.

Some things. And other things merely seem new because they have a fresh expression or we have a brighter view of them.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may suffer from a kind of urban ennui. The bustle around you seems like a rerun of yesterdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s drama. Break the pattern by finding reasons to laugh out loud. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll probably have to go out of your way.

TAURUS (April 20May 20). No matter what you achieve, however big or small it may be, you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget your roots. You feel gratitude toward the people who have helped you, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be sure to express it.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You tend to con-

Enjoy Life.

centrate on one thing until youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sure itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s solved. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit like your mind is a television show, and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to change the channel until the end credits roll.

CANCER (June 22July 22). Avoid being so conscious of returning favors that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enjoy the kindness that others are trying to give you. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a good person, and your heart is in the right place. All will balance in the end.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s natural that you would want to hold on to certain things for sentimental reasons. However, if you have hundreds of such items, the feeling is diluted. Let go of old possessions, and make way for the new.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22). Even when you are overwhelmingly happy with a result, you believe thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always room for improvement.

This mindset is what keeps you learning and growing all day long.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Much good comes from your ability to delay gratification. If you catch yourself thinking of the short term, stop and go for a broader perspective. Before committing to an action, ask yourself what it will likely lead to in the long run.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something tangible you want to have by the end of the day. You will narrow your choices and home in on your top priority.

You wisely realize that if you chase everything, you get nothing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.

22-Dec. 21). There are a certain number of half-finished projects in your past, and you have that in common with many other creative people. Seize todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opportunity to complete a journey, or at least commit to completing it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). All skills require time, patience and practice to learn.

As much as you wish for instantaneous knowledge, the very nature of knowing is that it happens through a process. So relax and get ready to go through all of the steps.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Wanting something else doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lessen the value in what you already have.

Take measures to care for and protect what you have, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see the great power and opportunity in it.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Checklists will be involved.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something wonderful about doing exactly what you expected to be doing.

Feeling like you are in control of your time will bring you happiness.

TODAYâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S BIRTHDAY (March 2). The next seven weeks represent the end of a cycle, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll celebrate accomplishment and completion. May brings new adventures. Quality time with family and relationship-related events could cause you to change your career trajectory in June. A hobby that has nothing to do with your job will feed your spirit in August. Aries and Libra people adore you.

â&#x2013; Hang the sheets and towels on the outside lines so as to conveniently hide your â&#x20AC;&#x153;unmentionablesâ&#x20AC;? in the middle. â&#x2013; Sub-zero weather doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; clothes will â&#x20AC;&#x153;freeze-dryâ&#x20AC;? you know. â&#x2013; Always gather the clothespins when taking down dry clothes.

Pins left on the lines are â&#x20AC;&#x153;tackyâ&#x20AC;? and will deteriorate or mildew. â&#x2013; Line the clothes up so that each item will not need two clothespins; share one of the pins with the next washed item. â&#x2013; Get clothes off the line before supper time, neatly fold and place in the clothes basket, ready to be ironed.

Ironed? Well, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a whole other subject! . . . So now you have the general rules â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad some folks still do hang their laundry out to dry. My own neighborhood sports several clotheslines, and if you have driven through an Amish community lately, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve probably seen the long lines of clean clothes blowing in the rustling, sunny breezes. What a re-

freshing sight!

When my kids were small, I loved hanging the wash on the clothesline and sniffing the freshness when we folded the clothes at night. And thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing quite like the feeling we got when we collapsed onto the crisp sun-dried bed sheets and absorbed their clean aroma after a hard dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work.

Savor the memory â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember those days, hang up an outdoor line, buy some clothespins, and create your own memories. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never too late!

Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re sewing a handmade item or hanging clothes and linens on the line to dry, the advertisements about â&#x20AC;&#x153;the touch, the feel of cottonâ&#x20AC;? have it right. And thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nothing like a sunny breeze to add the finishing touch to â&#x20AC;&#x153;the fabric of our lives.â&#x20AC;?
