Longtime football coach Mitchell retiring BY H. LEE SMITH II lsmith@dailycorinthian.com

“Mitchell Mania” is the craze no more. Jimmy Mitchell, who guided the Corinth Warriors to 12 straight playoff appearances, is hanging up his whistle after 40 years on the sidelines. The 1968 Winona graduate announced the decision, effective at the end of the school year, on Tuesday. “It’s just time,” said Mitchell, who informed the players and coaches Tuesday morning. “It wasn’t an easy decision ... it hurts.” Mitchell and his wife, Angelyn, who teaches at Corinth Elementary school, have each spent 40 years in the school business after marrying in 1970. “We want to have time to travel and do various things before we’re too old to do them,” said the coach. Mitchell spent the bulk of his head-coaching career at Corinth, quickly turning the program into a postseason contender. After going 11-11 in his first two seasons, the Warriors began a string of five straight Division 1-3A championships in 2000, prompting the student body to

“I’m excited about the chance to just watch football games. I might have to lay low when August rolls around. I don’t know if I could handle riding by the fieldhouse when practice starts.” Jimmy Mitchell CHS football coach don “Mitchell Mania” shirts. Corinth won 10 games or more during the five-year stretch, reaching the championship game for the first time in the program’s history in 2001. The Warriors put together a trio of perfect regular seasons and advanced to the state semifinals three times. Mitchell was the longest tenured football coach in the program’s history and also the winningest, posting an 118-54 mark in 14 seasons. In 20 total seasons, he was 164-77 with 15 playoff appearances. After enduring just his fourth losing season in 20 years as a head coach, Mitchell’s 2011 Warriors finished 6-6 and went 1-1 in the postseason after finishing second in Division 1-4A.

Corinth, which was bumped up to Class 4A for the first time since the 1993-94, 1994-95 school years, beat Shannon 2120 in the regular-season finale to extend its playoff streak. “I really enjoyed this past season,” said Mitchell. “I couldn’t have asked for a better group to finish with — they never quit.” Mitchell began what would prove to be a native tour at Pontotoc in 1992, leading the Warriors to a North Half title and a state runner-up finish in his first year. He went 10-10 in two seasons with the Indians of Itawamba AHS before coming to Corinth in 1998. Of his seven coaching stops — including four as an assistant —

Trustees told of Two groups plan Shiloh re-enactments program update BY BOBBY J. SMITH

bjsmith@dailycorinthian.com

Two living history groups will offer separate re-enactment events to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Shiloh. The Battle of Shiloh was fought April 6-7, 1862, in a wooded area near the banks of the Tennessee River. With almost 24,000 total casualties, the horror of the battle shocked both sides. Its name comes from Shiloh Church, a small log meeting house that stood in the middle of the battlefield. From March 29 to April 1, two re-enacting groups will recreate the carnage at nearby sites. The Blue-Gray Alliance’s 150th Blue-Gray Shiloh will begin on March 29; the 150th Battle of Shiloh, presented by The Armies of Tennessee, will begin March 30.

The Corinth School District Board of Trustees received an update Monday on the status of the high school’s new Cambridge program. As students adapt to a new approach that requires more reasoning and analysis rather than memorizing a set of notes, the district is seeing a need to move that approach into lower grades so that students are better prepared for it when they reach high school. A group of Corinth Middle School teachers will visit Miami next week to see how the approach is used in a middle school there. Also, a representative of the National Center on Education and the Economy, the sponsoring organization for the pilot program, will visit the district later this month. “He is going to spend two days

Make a resolution to stop smoking in 2012 For the Daily Corinthian

The start of the new year is a time to reflect on the past year and make resolutions for the upcoming year. The Mississippi Tobacco-Free Coalition of Alcorn & Tippah Counties urges Crossroads area residents to make a resolution to kick the tobacco habit in 2012. “If you are a tobacco user, make plans to become healthier by deciding 2012 is the year you become tobacco-free. Whether you are a smoker or a smokeless tobacco user, there are many benefits to quitting,” said Roy Hart, director of the Office of Tobacco Control at the Mississippi State Department of Health (MSDH).

“Nicotine is an incredibly addictive drug and the cravings and withdrawal symptoms can overpower even the strongest will,” said Hart. “Those who seek and receive professional help are twice as likely to quit for good.” Nearly 509,000 Mississippi adults smoke cigarettes and 69,000 Mississippi kids under the age of 18 will die prematurely from smoking. Every year, over 500 Mississippians die from the exposure to secondhand smoke, he said. Seven and a half percent of Mississippi adults and more than 16 percent of Mississippi male high school students use some form of spit or chewing tobacco, he explained.

“Many people mistakenly believe that using spit or chew tobacco is healthier than lighting up,” added Hart. “This isn’t true. There are actually 28 known cancer-causing chemicals in spit tobacco.” Hart said using spit tobacco may increase a person’s risk of cancers of the lip, tongue, cheeks, gums and mouth. In addition, there is also some evidence that spit tobacco may cause cancer in organs other than the mouth. “Tobacco use remains the single largest preventable cause of disease and premature death in the United States,” said Emily J. McGrath, director of the Please see SMOKING | 5A

at the high school working specifically with teachers on strategies to deal with students that are struggling with the Cambridge program or maybe students that don’t have the skills that they specifically need to be successful in those programs,” said Superintendent Lee Childress. The Cambridge model is a major shift for students, and they are having to adjust, the superintendent said. “It’s much more a give and take between the teacher and student, sharing thoughts or ideas about what they read,” said Childress. He also reported that the district completed benchmark testing in

In analyzing the results, he said the district is looking for a collaborative approach in which teachers share successful approaches and is looking for ways to close the gap for certain student subgroups.

God has since taken Dr. Savelle from being a constant quitter to a man who knows how to stand on the Word of God until victory is experienced. Because of the life-changing combination of God’s faithfulness and Dr. Savelle’s “no quit” attitude, his life is totally different than it was thirty-eight years ago. Since 1969, Dr. Savelle has been traveling the world teaching people how to win in life. Dr. Savelle has ministered in more than three thousand churches in twenty-six nations, and has overseas ofﬁces in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, and a mission’s outreach in Tanzania, Africa.

Corinth, Miss.

Weakness sapping GOP field’s strength BY MICHAEL BARONE A presidential campaign exposes candidates’ strengths and weaknesses. The strengths they’re eager to tell you about. So let’s look at the weaknesses. Start with Rick Santorum, whose poll numbers in New Hampshire and South Carolina have been surging since (by last count) he lost the Iowa caucuses by the Chinese lucky number of eight votes. Santorum’s weakness is that he can’t resist concentrating on peripheral issues. The prime example is his leadership in 2005 in getting the Senate summoned into voting for a law preventing the removal of life support for Terri Schiavo. Santorum’s position was intellectually defensible. But voters considered it weird to devote so much energy to a single unhappy legal case. I think this accounted more than anything else for Santorum’s 59 percent to 41 percent defeat in Pennsylvania in 2006. In New Hampshire, Santorum was unable to resist Boston radio talk show host Michael Graham’s invitation to characterize himself as a “Jesus guy.” But in discussing these issues, he needlessly gave credence to those who dismiss him as nothing more than a religious conservative when in fact he has a serious record on economic and foreign issues. Jon Huntsman, even more dependent on a breakout in New Hampshire than Santorum, has a different weakness. His disdainful dismissal of other Republicans, even more than his service as Barack Obama’s ambassador to China, has antagonized many conservatives. At the same time it has attracted people who, like Huntsman supporters I’ve interviewed after his town halls, characterize him as the least bad alternative. And it’s netted him the endorsement of liberal papers like the Concord Monitor and the Boston Globe. Yet Huntsman’s positions on economic issues are solidly conservative and have been praised by The Wall Street Journal. On education, he is a thoughtful backer of school choice. As governor of Utah, he took many smart conservative initiatives. The tension between the anti-conservative aura he gives off and his genuinely conservative positions seems to have left Huntsman between two stools and struggling to achieve the solid third place finish in New Hampshire that might give him a ticket to other states. Other candidates’ weaknesses are so obvious that they can be quickly summarized. Ron Paul looks and sounds zany. Yes, his attacks on the Federal Reserve are more plausible than they were four years ago, and he’s on his way to doubling his percentage in New Hampshire, as he did in Iowa. But he’s not going to attract more votes with a brochure cluttered with arcane verbiage and with keywords in ALL CAPS. As for Rick Perry, all you have to do is watch that agonizing 53 second brain freeze again. Perry’s weakness is that he’s never had a secret ambition to be president of the United States. He got into the race when other politicians’ decisions not to run seemed to create an opening for the governor of the nation’s second largest and best job-creating state. But his sketchy knowledge of national and foreign issues revealed him as a man who had already achieved his life’s ambition as governor of Texas. Newt Gingrich’s weaknesses? Where do we start? On the stump in Iowa, he was constantly detouring off message, and his pledge not to campaign negatively was at odds with the attack dog tactics that enabled him to end Democrats’ 40-year majority in the House. But his greatest weakness, I think, is that he sees himself as a world historical figure. Being derailed in Iowa by negative ads pointing out the $1.6 million he pocketed from Freddie Mac seems to him as enraging as if Winston Churchill had been shoved aside in May 1940 because of his (genuinely) dodgy finances. But rage doesn’t attract votes. Which leaves Mitt Romney, well ahead in New Hampshire polls, ahead in polls in South Carolina, with the resources and organization needed to win in Florida. His weakness is that he never experienced the cultural revolution of the 1960s and so sounds corny and insincere. So far, that hasn’t been disabling. Michael Barone, senior political analyst for The Washington Examiner, www.washingtonexaminer.com, is a Fox News Channel contributor.

Prayer for today Dear God, help us to remember when we feel like we are drowning that you are close at hand to help us. Amen.

mixed success, to shift as much of the more expensive Medicaid care — which required state matching dollars — to Medicare programs in pursuit of that very cost shifting strategy. Over the last eight years, Barbour’s face-to-face Medicaid reauthorizations and other initiatives had trimmed the state’s Medicaid rolls before this protracted recession and the 10 percent unemployment that came with it drove more Mississippians back onto the Medicaid rolls. Yet few issues generate more pushback from constituents than Medicaid cuts — particularly when those cuts impact the elderly in nursing homes or children. More veteran lawmakers will tell their new colleagues that many constituents come to state legislators seeking help with their Medicare and Social Security, despite the fact that those are both federal programs. In the 2012 federal elections, debts and deficits and Obamacare remain top drawer issues. But cutting or providing a funding source for the Medicare prescription drug benefit remains politically dangerous — particularly in poor states. Walking that line — between serving constitu-

ents already dependent on such benefits and installing fiscal discipline in the programs — will be a challenge for federal lawmakers. In Jackson, the challenge is funding Medicaid at a time of legitimate increased demand that just happens to coincide with a period of stagnant state revenue. How big a challenge do state lawmakers face? Medicaid in Mississippi is nearly a $5 billion annual proposition utilizing both federal and state dollars. It is also the most heavilysubsidized Medicaid program in the nation. In the fiscal year that ended June 30, 2011, for every $1 the state spent on medical care for the poor, the federal government spent $5.61. In the current fiscal year that began July 1, 2011, the ratio dropped to $3 in federal funds for every $1 spent in state dollars. In 2014, the Obama health care reforms will require states to provide Medicaid to all those who earn up to 133 percent of the federal poverty level.

Lera’s beginning was equally tough. “She was 5 years old when she held the hand of her own dying mother. I can’t tell you why the woman died. My mother didn’t know. At that time and in that place, you didn’t need a good reason to die. My mother’s family was from Chilton County, at the geographical middle of a state which was, rightly or wrongly, often mistaken for nowhere.” But theirs was a love story that somehow made up for rough beginnings.

People who’ll blow $50 on lunch and not bat an eye will pick up a book in front of its author and say, “Whoa. You get $25 for this?” It’s demoralizing.

Local/State MITCHELL: Coach, wife plan to remain in Corinth after retirement CONTINUED FROM 1A

Mitchell’s last proved to be his longest. “Every place I went I didn’t think I’d stay long ... that just goes with coaching,” said Mitchell. Support from parents and friendships that were built played a role in a 14-year stay in the Crossroads area. “When parents are crying when the season is over, you know you have good support,” said Mitchell. “I’ve also had some real good friendships from those who stayed around the program long after their kids had left.” Mitchell began coaching at his alma mater in 1972, spending three seasons at Winona. He followed with stops at Okeechobee, Fla., (3 years), Kosciusko (3) and Tupelo (11) before landing his first head coaching job. “I’ve been involved

I don’t know if I could handle riding by the fieldhouse when practice starts.”

America hits the brakes on health care spending BY RICARDO ALONSOZALDIVAR Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Is health-care relief finally in sight? Health spending stabilized as a share of the nation’s economy in 2010 after two back-to-back years of historically low growth, the government reported Monday. Experts debated whether it’s a fleeting consequence of the sluggish economy, or a real sign that cost controls by private employers and government at all levels are starting to work. The answers will be vital for Medicare’s sustainability, as well as for workplace coverage. U.S. health care spending grew by 3.9 percent in 2010, reaching $2.6 trillion, according to the report by the Health and Human Services department. That’s an average of $8,402 per person — far more than any other economically advanced country. Still, the increases for 2010 and 2009 were the lowest measured in 51 years. And health care as

a share of the economy leveled off at 17.9 percent, the first time in a decade there’s been no growth. The main reason for the slowdown was that Americans were more frugal in their use of health care, from postponing elective surgery to using generic drugs and thinking twice about that late-night visit to the emergency room. “Although medical goods and services are generally viewed as necessities, the latest recession has had a dramatic effect on their utilization,” said the report published in the journal Health Affairs. “Though the recession officially ended in 2009, its impact on the health care sector appears to have continued into 2010.” Independent economists issued conflicting assessments. “I think it could signal slower growth in the future,” said Ken Thorpe, professor of health policy at Emory University in Atlanta. “Any discussion about reducing the deficit is going to focus on how we reduce the growth in health-care costs. And employers are adopting more effective tools to keep put-

Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop arrested Associated Press

MADISON, Wis. — Authorities in southern Wisconsin are facing a tongue twister thanks to the arrest of Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop. The unusually named 30-year-old man was in jail Sunday in Madison.

Police say he violated his bail conditions from a previous run-in with the law. Court records show that his name used to be Jeffrey Drew Wilschke. He legally changed it in October. The Capital Times reports that Zopittybop-

Bop-Bop was arrested last week after residents complained of excessive drinking and drug use near Reynolds Park in Madison. Authorities say he was arrested in another local park last April after police found a loaded handgun in his backpack.

ting downward pressure on health-care cost increases.” But his counterpart Len Nichols at George Mason University in Virginia said people are getting less medical care because too many have lost jobs and insurance, and they just can’t afford to pay. “The slowdown is mostly due to postponement of care, due to anticipated inability to pay,” said Nichols. If he’s right, that could mean costs will spike once the economy is on solid footing. The report provided relief for a jittery White House facing a 2012 reelection campaign in which President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul is a top target for Republicans. The nonpartisan number crunchers at HHS found that the health care law barely contributed to cost increases in 2010 — just one-tenth of 1 percentage point. Major provisions expanding coverage to more than 30 million uninsured don’t take effect until 2014, well after the presidential election. The federal government’s share of the total health care tab — another issue in this year’s political debate — grew to 29 percent in 2010, up from 23 percent as recently as 2007. Counting state and local spending, the overall government share stood at 45 percent of the total. Medicare spending grew by 5 percent in 2010. That was slower growth than in 2009, due mainly to reductions in what the government paid private Medicare Advantage insurance plans. Medicaid spending increased by 7.2 percent, less than the 2009 rate because of fewer people covered by the program.

Investor optimism A rising percentage of individual investors say they are bullish about the next six months. 60%

Investors are the most optimistic about stocks that they’ve been in nearly a year. They’re not backing up that talk with dollars. Investors pulled $16.66 billion more out of U.S. stock mutual funds in December than they put in, the Investment Company Institute says. Since the recession began in 2007, they’ve pulled money out of stock funds in 35 of 49 months. Investors are worried about the impact on the U.S. of Europe’s debt crisis and slower economic growth in China and other developing countries. Financial analysts have slashed their estimates for U.S. companies’ earnings in the October-December period for those reasons. So how can 49 percent of individual investors say they’re optimistic about stocks in the next six months? Check the calendar, says Bruce Bittles, chief investment strategist for Robert W. Baird. Investors tend to be more optimistic at the start of each year. And the economy is looking better — the unemployment rate fell in December to its lowest point since February 2009.

The economy, region by region

Lennar’s take on housing

The Federal Reserve’s Beige Book comes out today and will detail how businesses around the country viewed the economy at the end of the year. The report is based on surveys that the Fed’s 12 regional banks conduct. It tends to be anecdotal, a contrast to the numbers that the Fed and other government agencies release on jobs, manufacturing, housing and other parts of the economy. But it gives investors another sense of how the economy is doing.

The housing market has been showing modest signs of improvement. And the fourth-quarter earnings report for homebuilder Lennar is expected to reflect those gains. Financial analysts expect Lennar to report a slight increase in orders during the September-November quarter. A larger rise in orders would be welcome news as builders, economists and investors wait for the spring selling season, the busiest time of the year for home sales.

Assessing the damage Although Germany is Europe’s strongest economy, it hasn’t been able to avoid being hurt by the region’s debt crisis. Today, the government releases its report on the country’s economic growth for 2011. Economists estimate that Germany’s gross domestic product rose 3 percent, slower than the 3.6 percent it grew in 2010.

Corinth limited Amory’s second-chance attempts in the second half and the Warriors and Lady Warriors opened the second part of the Division 1-4A double roundrobin with a sweep on Tuesday. The Warriors limited the Panther’s to just five offensive

rebounds in the second half and pulled away late in a 7355 win. Corinth (15-2, 5-1) led 3932 at the break with Amory getting 18 of its points via the second-chance route on 12 offensive rebounds. In the opener, the Lady Warriors (7-10, 2-4) surpassed their previous season high by 19 points in taking an

80-41 win. Erin Frazier paced the outburst with 19 points. Stennett Smith and Alexis Jacobs also came up big in CHS’ third straight win with career highs of 18 and 16, respectively. Smith got 12 of her points in the opening period. The total was half of Corinth’s output in the frame and five better than the Lady Panthers.

■ The Warriors used a 23-10 advantage in the fourth quarter to pull away from the Panthers. Five different players scored three points or more in the frame, with Deione Weeks posting six of his game-high 18. Corinth pulled away behind a 16-4 run after Amory cut

Heisman winner RG3 going pro The Associated Press

Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III has decided to enter the NFL draft. The exciting dual-threat quarterback is bypassing his senior season at Baylor and is projected to be one of the top picks in April. The news came Tuesday, exactly a month after Griffin became the first Baylor player to

win college football’s highest individual honor. ESPN, citing an anonymous family source, first reported that Griffin was going pro and in the final stages of picking an agent. A person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press that Griffin opted to declare for the draft. The person spoke Tuesday night on condi-

tion of anonymity because the quarterback had not yet made an official announcement. Baylor officials had indicated this week the possibility of a news conference on campus as early as Wednesday. There was still nothing officially scheduled Tuesday night. Griffin set or tied 54 school records while playing 41 games at Baylor, and is the school’s

career passing leader. He completed 800 of 1,192 passes (67 percent) for 10,366 yards with 78 touchdowns and 17 interceptions. His 2,254 yards and 33 TDs rushing are records for a Bears quarterback. He completed 291 of 402 passes (72 percent) for 4,293 yards and 37 TDs with only six Please see HEISMAN | 9A

Vandy hits 13 3s to beat South Carolina The Associated Press

COLUMBIA, S.C. — It’s been two Southeastern Conference games and two lights-out shooting performances from Vanderbilt and the league’s leading scorer John Jenkins. Jenkins had all but two of his 14 points in the second half and four of Vanderbilt’s 13 3-pointers as the Commodores built a 24-point lead before holding on to defeat

South Carolina 67-57 on Tuesday night. It was Vanderbilt’s sixth straight win and second consecutive SEC blowout after a 65-35 win over Auburn to start league play last Saturday. “I sure hope so” Jenkins said when asked if the on-target, long-range barrage can continue throughout the SEC season. “We work hard at It every day. It’s good to see the hard work pay off.”

Even if it took a half to truly get it going. The Commodores (12-4, 2-0 SEC) had only 15 attempts and were held to 22 points in the opening period. Still, their defense and South Carolina’s struggles from the outside gave them a 22-12 lead at the break. Jenkins, who had just a bucket the first 20 minutes, found his shooting touch with two wideopen 3’s that were part of 24-13

run as Vanderbilt took control of things. The Commodores led by 24 points before South Carolina’s 14-0 run the final 4 minutes made the game look closer than it really was. “Well, I really liked how our team played,” Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallings said. “Obviously, some things I didn’t like.” That would be Vanderbilt’s Please see VANDY | 9A

Weeks had nine rebounds and five assists to go along with his game-high 18. Eric Richardson added 11, going scoreless in the middle quarters. Corinth was 25-of-52 from the field -- just 2-of-10 from distance. The Warriors turned the ball over just nine times, one each in the even quarters when they outscored the Panthers a combined 44-26. Amory was 22-of-60 overall and only 2-of-20 from deep, including an 0-of-10 start. The Panthers finished with a 37-36 advantage on the boards.

interceptions this season, when he also ran for 699 yards and 10 more touchdowns. He was the nation’s second-most efficient passer with a 189.48 rating, just behind Wisconsin’s Russell Wilson, whose 191.78 rating came with 93 fewer pass attempts. The Bears matched a school record with 10 wins and closed the season with a six-game winning streak, including a record-breaking 67-56 victory over Washington in the Alamo Bowl for their first bowl victory since 1992. They were 13th in The Associated Press Top 25 released Tuesday, the first time they were ranked in the final poll since 1986. Griffin played this season as a fourth-year junior. He had another season of eligibility remaining at Baylor because he got a medical redshirt after he tore the ACL in his right knee in the third game of the 2009 season.

19 turnovers, 11 of those coming in the opening half. Stallings took his team at halftime to concentrate on taking care of the basketball and rebounding — South Carolina was ahead 9- 2 in offensive rebounds the first 20 minutes — and the offensive flow would come. Boy, was Stallings right. Jenkins got things going in the second half and his teammates followed right along. Jenkins, the SEC’s leading scorer at 20.3 points a game coming in, hit two wide-open 3’s less than two minutes into the period as the Commodores moved in front 32-15.

Jeffery Taylor added a 3 before Rod Odom, Jenkins and Dai-Jon Parker had long-range baskets on three straights trips and Vanderbilt increased the lead to 21 points. When Taylor struck for another 3-pointer — and Vanderbilt’s 13th — the Commodores were up 67-47. Vanderbilt finished 13 of 22 from behind the arc against South Carolina after a 13 of 29 longrange performance in the Auburn win. Jenkins went 5 of 8 on 3-pointers and scored 17 points against the Tigers. “They’re a terrific offensive team and they showed that tonight,” South Carolina coach Darrin Horn said. Brad Tinsley had 13

points, three 3-pointers and nine assists for the Commodores. Jeffery Taylor had 11 points and Steve Tchiengang added 10 for Vanderbilt. Bruce Ellington had 20 points to lead the Gamecocks (8-8, 0-2). Damontre Harris had 11 points and 10 rebounds for the Gamecocks. Vanderbilt entered this one off a stellar defensive showing, holding Auburn to 35 points in 30-point victory in the Commodores’ SEC opener. They came out just as solid against South Carolina. The Gamecocks were held to five baskets, shot 19.2 percent and managed just 12 first-half points. The fact that South Carolina wasn’t

down by 30 was only because of some gritty defense of its own. Vanderbilt committed 11 turnovers in the period, as many as it’s averaged in a game this season. Jenkins, the SEC’s leading scorer at 20.3 points a game, was limited to a bucket on two chances. But the focus on Jenkins left Tinsley open on the outside. He hit three 3-pointers — matching his season’s best showing this year — in the half. Two of those came in 12-2 run late in the period that put the Commodores ahead 1810. The Commodores had trouble squeezing off shots against the Gamecocks’ defense, but made of the most of their op-

portunities. Vanderbilt shot 53 percent (8 of 15) in the half to lead 22-12 at the break. The Gamecocks had difficulty shooting over Vanderbilt’s packed in defense. They missed all eight of their 3-point attempts, several which were desperation shots to beat the shot clock. South Carolina, 79-64 losers at Kentucky last Saturday, had hoped a return home and a crowd of students back from break at the Colonial Life Arena would carry the team to league victory. Instead, the Gamecocks managed their fewest points in the first half since trailing Georgia 28-9 in a game here they’d eventually lose 60-56 last February.

Arena going after scalpers BY SHEENA BARNETT Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal

TUPELO — BancorpSouth Arena’s officials have announced a new concert — Eric Church in April — and with that comes the battle to keep concert tickets in the hands of real — and local — music fans. Ticket scalping has jumped from street corners to shady websites. Scalpers are legally buying tickets and are reselling those tickets at much higher prices or choosing the “print at home” option, and then making copies and selling the worthless copies for face value or higher. “The Internet is a double-edged sword,” said arena director Todd Hunt. “It’s made for easier distribution of tickets, but now scalpers have access to the same inventory.” One way of identifying and stopping scalpers is by looking at ZIP codes. Most buying tickets to shows at the arena are from North Mississippi or Alabama or Memphis and buy their tickets at the arena’s box office, online, over the phone or at local retailers. Most scalpers, though, are buying tickets online or by phone from places nowhere near Mississippi. Though the arena sees the problem happening, Hunt can’t stop it. “They bought their tickets legitimately, but we can’t go out and void that ticket just because we don’t like their ZIP code,” he said. Arena officials came up with a different solution instead: Soon the arena will no longer sell tickets to buyers with zip codes thousands of miles away. “We realize that may cut into a grandma who lives in Utah who wants to buy a ticket for her grandson as a gift. It makes it

harder to buy tickets as a gift. It’s not a perfect solution, but grandma may have to mail a check to mom to buy the tickets,” Hunt said. Scalpers are preying on fans who do not buy many concert tickets, and therefore may not be familiar with what the official ticket sellers’ websites look like.

“If you type into Google, ‘Jason Aldean, tickets, Tupelo,’ you’ll get us, but you’ll also get 20 other sites, and some of them look like us,” Hunt said. The BancorpSouth Arena website, bcsarena. com, links directly to Ticketmaster’s site, and that’s the only way to buy non-scalped tickets to arena events online.

Addiction, by def- turning Denise into his inition, is behavior that mother. is compulsive and out of I first noticed it when she cut her beautiful long control. The problem with teen- hair short and in the same age boys getting involved style as his mother. Now

her lipstick shade is the same as Leo’s mother’s as well as her glasses and clothing. At a recent gathering I remarked to Leo, “Wow, Denise looks more like your mother than she does me.” After that, our relationship soured. Apparently, he didn’t like my observation. Was I wrong? — CREEPED OUT IN CALIFORNIA DEAR CREEPED OUT: No. But you may have said it to the wrong person. You should have said it to your daughter, who may be doing it because she thinks Leo’s mother has great taste. Denise could also be consciously or unconsciously doing this to please him. There’s an old song, “I Want a Girl Just Like the Girl That Married Dear Old Dad.” Many men ide-

alize their mothers, and it may be a reason why Leo still lives with his parents. DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are empty nesters. We both work and live far from our kids and grandkids. I have wanted to move closer to them, but I also understand we need to meet our goals for a secure retirement. The problem is, I’m lonely and I think my husband is, too. We work long hours and spend our weekends doing chores. My solution to help myself feel better is to get a dog. My husband, however, doesn’t want one. He wants to wait until “later” — whenever that is. I think a pet would make me leave work earlier and force both of us to get out of the house. I know there are expenses involved,

but I’m willing to make sacrifices. Am I being unreasonable or silly? I want my husband to be a part of raising a pet and, perhaps, participate in some obedience training. I’m trying my best to persuade him without being a nag, but I’m beginning to feel like a little kid who’s begging “Daddy” for a puppy. I’d appreciate some advice. — PINING FOR A PUPPY IN TEXAS DEAR PINING: Before embarking on a “pet” project, don’t you think you should first find out what may be causing your husband’s behavior? While a dog could work wonders and help you both be more active, between his job and the weekend chores, taking a puppy to obedience training may be too much for

him. If he’s not up to it, would you be willing to shoulder that task — and the walking, feeding, grooming and cleaning up? An energetic puppy can be a lot to handle. Would you consider adopting an older dog, or fostering one that needs a temporary home? I don’t recommend bringing a dog into your lives unless your husband agrees. And if he doesn’t, please consider volunteering a few days a month at an animal shelter or pet rescue kennel.

ini enjoys intellectual challenge, games and conversation. So social situations that would have more introverted personalities shaking in their boots are usually something Gemini looks forward to. The prospect of a pop quiz or a kind of test is also something that can motivate instead of frustrate Gemini. BAD STRESS: Having to say “no,” deliver news that might be considered bad or disappoint people in any way can be a source of worry and fret for the social twins. Also, Gemini is likely to run from situations that seem like they might get emotionally heavy or overly serious or somehow obligate Gemini to make a commitment. STRESS BUSTER: Setting priorities will be a move that makes Gemini’s life much easier.

When twins know what they are saying “yes” to, they almost don’t even have to say “no” to the other option, because it’s implied by the path they are already on. CELEBRITY PROFILES: The lovely actress Amanda Peet will soon join an all-star cast in the next film by acclaimed filmmaker Terrence Malick. Peet’s natal Venus and Mars in Capricorn reveals that she is competitive, strategic and driven to do what it takes to be great in both life and art. Several planets in Aquarius indicates a deep need to contribute to the public good.

Horoscopes by Holiday BY HOLIDAY MATHIS The Leo moon makes sure that the day is imbued with more style than content -- more “show” than “go.” There will be just enough drama to keep things interesting, though tomorrow many of the details will be fuzzy if not forgotten. It’s more about being playfully in the moment than making any lasting impression. ARIES (March 21-April 19). The friendship you seek is less important than the friendship you bring. Go into the social scene ready to be a stellar listener, and give others a quality of attention that will make them feel important. TAURUS (April 20May 20). There will be those around you who act as though the rest of the world was born to serve them. You’ll be the reality check, politely drawing boundaries and restoring balance. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You’re a sensual being. As intellectual as you may be, you’re always operating on another level, too, a level that is affected by things like color, warmth and music. You’ll

gravitate toward beauty and comfort. CANCER (June 22July 22). It’s one thing to talk about the things you appreciate and quite another to let those things generate a joy in you that radiates from your heart and rings out through your body and into the atmosphere. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Where you go in your imagination you can go physically, as well. The reverse is also true. You’ll test the theory by trying to imagine yourself experiencing something you want. It may take several attempts to picture this, but keep trying. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Most people are their own worst enemy. Realizing that you’ve sometimes inexplicably acted to defeat your own interests, you’ll seek victory over that part of yourself. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). How you communicate will convey much more than the actual words you say. Everyone around will read you loud and clear, and will sense how you really feel even if you don’t speak of it.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24Nov. 21). The chopping block comes out, and something has to go. The elements of your life that do not serve an obvious function will be up for scrutiny. Note that just because something is enjoyable doesn’t make it superfluous. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Without your influence, there are those who won’t be able to tear themselves away from the negativity of the world. You’ll find an anecdote for the negative stuff going on, and you’ll share it with others. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You have the time for what you really want to do. If you find that you don’t have the time for something you think is important, it might be because you actually don’t want to do it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18). There’s a cause speaking to your heart. You’re still not sure what you can do that would make the biggest difference. Since this can’t be predicted, the best thing to give is what you want to give. PISCES (Feb. 19-March

20). If you’re true to yourself, things might work out and they might not. But at least you will be proud of your actions. If you succeed by doing something other than what feels right to you, the victory will be hollow. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Jan. 11). What you once thought was unfair will prove to be the best thing that ever happened to you. You’ll build up your resources through February and March. Then in April you’ll be ready to bring a new side of you to the world. You’ll be met with applause, as well as some excellent advice about how to proceed. Libra and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 40, 50, 31, 28 and 4. STRESS AND YOUR SIGN: Each sign is different when it comes to stress. What one sign considers taxing another finds exciting, and tension remedies vary from sign to sign, as well. How does your sign deal with the more unnerving aspects of life?
