11-year-old boy remains critical after vehicle hit BY STEVE BEAVERS sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
An 11 year-old is in critical condition from injuries suffered in a bicycle accident Tuesday evening. Gabriel Williamson, 11, of Childs Street, is listed as critical in Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital, according to hospital spokesman Sarah Burnett. Williamson was struck by motorist Bobby Worsham, 42,
of Corinth, as he attempted to cross Bunch Street on his bicycle around 4:39 p.m. Worsham’s 1998 Jeep Cherokee was traveling west on Bunch when the child crossed in front of him. “A group of children had crossed the street prior to the accident,” said Corinth Assistant Police Chief Scotty Harville. The child was thrown for-
ward after contacting the center of the vehicle, according to the assistant chief. A huge oak tree could have played a part in the accident, which rerouted traffic around Bunch Street for almost an hour. According to Harville, the tree could have obstructed the view of both the driver and child. No charges were filed in the accident.
A car traveling in the wrong lanes of U.S. Highway 45 collided head-on with another vehicle just south of Corinth Tuesday night, killing two people and seriously injuring a third. The Mississippi Highway Patrol said Peggy Gray Wages, 59, of Baldwyn, and Jeffery Dale Bonds, 48, of the Coleman Park area near Iuka, each died at the scene. A 49-year-old passenger in the 1999 Chevrolet Malibu driven by Wages was airlifted to North Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo with lifethreatening injuries. MHP declined to identify the male passenger. Biggersville Assistant Fire Chief Jeff Allen was among the first firefighters to arrive on scene, where he found car debris spread over an estimated 50 yards. “I have been with the Biggersville Fire Department since 1998, and this is by far the worst wreck I have seen,” he said. Funeral services for Wages, a retired nurse’s aide, are set for 2 p.m. Friday at Kesler Funeral Home Chapel in Baldwyn. She is survived by a daughter of Corinth, Charylee Danielle Gray Swindle.
Funeral services for Bonds are set for 2 p.m. Friday at Cutshall Funeral Home Chapel in Iuka. MHP said Wages was traveling southbound on U.S. 45 in the left lane and Bonds was headed in the wrong direction in a 1997 Saturn when the two cars hit head-on in the left southbound lane about a half mile north of the 45 South Truck Stop. MHP said evidence at the scene indicates Bonds was possibly under the influence of alcohol. None of the vehicle occupants wore a seat belt, according to Trooper Casey Mayo. Coroner Jay Jones, who described it as one of the worst accident scenes to which he has responded, said it was speculated that the Saturn entered the highway from the truck stop or County Road 511 because there had been no prior report of a car traveling the wrong way. Firemen used extrication equipment to remove the victims from the vehicles. Biggersville and Kossuth FDs responded. Motorists in the southbound lanes faced a lengthy traffic delay as officials investigated and cleaned up the wreck scene. Traffic began to move again at about 9:15 p.m.
City of Corinth supports funding for Highway 9 BY JEBB JOHNSTON jjohnston@dailycorinthian.com
The Corinth Board of Aldermen had a light agenda Tuesday that included a resolution of support for the proposed Highway 9 north four-lane. Following similar action by the Alcorn County Board of Supervisors on Monday, the board adopted a resolution encouraging the Mississippi Sen-
ate to reject any corresponding bill associated with House Bill 791, which was recently passed by the Mississippi House. Language in the house bill takes the previously designated $40 million off the table for construction of the northern Highway 9 improvements in Union County. Supporters believe the highway improvements would in-
crease Alcorn and neighboring counties’ chances of landing a Toyota supplier by decreasing the drive time to the plant. Local officials attended a hearing on the matter at the Capitol on Tuesday. In other business: ■ The agenda included several property cleanup items. Jim Cotner of 1106 Ross Street addressed the board, expressing
frustration and concerns about the city’s demands on the property. Mayor Tommy Irwin said he will meet with the Cotners to discuss the cleanup and possible solutions. The board gave a continuance to April 17 for 213 North Parkway and adjudicated cleanup costs of $1,495 at 608 Wenasoga Road with a penalty of $500. ■ Aldermen approved a tax
exemption request for Automatic Machine Products relating to an expansion of operations. ■ In zoning requests, the board approved setback variances for a storage building at 1300 Pine Road and a pool house at 2111 Oak Lane. The board set a public hearing for April 17 on a zoning change request by David Latch.
Shoate Creek Bridge opens Friday at cost of $36,000 3 attend literary celebration BY STEVE BEAVERS
sbeavers@dailycorinthian.com
An Alcorn County road is set to reopen following the completion of a bridge project. Work on the Shoate Creek Bridge on CR 260 is scheduled to be complete for the reopening on Friday. “This bridge project has been a long time coming,” said 2nd district supervisor Dal Nelms. “We are extremely grateful to the Tombigbee River Valley Water Management District for their hands on involvement and know because of their help we have another bridge that will serve the district for years to come.” The old bridge consisted of two big culverts that had rusted and forced the road to constantly be under water after heavy rains. “It was a mess,” said Nelms. The Tombigbee River Valley Management District also went in and rechanneled the creek to flow better under the bridge. Construction on the project took just over two weeks. The new 30 by 22 concrete bridge also improved the crossing for motorists, changing it from a one-lane bridge to two-lane.

$36,000, according to the supervisor. Nelms says $20,000 was for materials while the other $16,000 made up the labor charge.

“I never thought it would be installed this quick,” said the supervisor. “We still have plenty of things like this to work on in our district.”

GOP wants YOU for its nominee BY ROGER SIMON Columnist
Do YOU need a JOB? Or are YOU in a DEAD-END job with LITTLE chance of ADVANCEMENT? Are you BORED? FIDGETY? DISCONNECTED from REALITY and possessing certain DELUSIONAL tendencies? Do you believe in a MOON COLONY? Would you like NASCAR, NFL team owners and other NE’ER-DOWELLS to SUCK UP to YOU? Or are you just eager to IMPOSE your own PERSONAL RELIGIOUS BELIEFS on the rest of the AMERICAN PEOPLE? In that case: Would YOU like to be the PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEE of the UNITED STATES REPUBLICAN PARTY? This is no JOKE, SCAM OR PHISHING swindle! Send no MONEY to FOREIGN PRINCES. No HOOKERS will call. On the contrary, vast sums of MONEY will be sent to YOU by SUPER PACS! The SECOND OLDEST political party in the United States, with 158 YEARS of PROVEN EXPERIENCE and a PROUD HISTORY that counts among its members ABRAHAM LINCOLN, THEODORE ROOSEVELT and KARL ROVE NEEDS YOU. This party is a FIXER-UPPER but with UNLIMITED POTENTIAL! All it needs is VISION, PURPOSE, ORGANIZATION, the ABILITY TO CONNECT WITH ORDINARY PEOPLE, PROOF that it does not HATE women, Latinos, the poor, the ill, the downtrodden and other lazy bums who leach off society. THIS PERSON CAN BE YOU! THERE ARE NO BACKGROUND CHECKS REQUIRED! HAVE AN EXCESS OF FORMER SPOUSES? A PENCHANT FOR FANATICISM? OR EVEN PAST CRUELTY TO ANIMALS? THIS IS NOT A DEAL-BREAKER! A team of PROFESSIONALS, the same people who vetted SARAH PALIN, will WORK with you, bring you UP TO SPEED and even provide you with a FABULOUS WARDROBE. NERVOUS? Do NOT be! Your COMPETITION is NOT that tough. On Tuesday, in an interview with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer, GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney said, “Sen. Santorum is at the desperate end of his campaign.” Within a few hours, Sen. Santorum would win the primaries in Alabama and Mississippi, and Romney would come in third. So ask yourself: Could I be SMARTER than MITT ROMNEY? Would I not have WAITED for Santorum to ACTUALLY LOSE before announcing the DESPERATE END of his campaign? But wait! There’s more. Romney also said Santorum “is trying in some way to boost his prospects. And, frankly, misrepresenting the facts is not a good way of doing that.” Does it occur to you that this statement is more than a little DIM? Does it occur to you that MISREPRESENTING THE FACTS is an EXCELLENT way to get the Republican nomination? So remember: THIS is your competition for the nomination! Feel BETTER? Less NERVOUS? As an added benefit, it will be possible for you and your crackerjack staff to speak in tongues. Alice Stewart, the Santorum press secretary, said on CNN, “Romney is not resonating the base.” Do not worry. We will make sure YOU have your BASE RESONATED every 5,000 miles! And do not be nervous about making BROAD, SWEEPING STATEMENTS that will come back to haunt you in the general election in November. All you have to do is win the REPUBLICAN NOMINATION and COAST from there. So Mitt Romney made no GAFFES when he told a Missouri TV station this week: “Planned Parenthood, we’re going to get rid of that. The subsidy for Amtrak, I’d eliminate that, the National Endowment for the Arts (and) the National Endowment for the Humanities.” These savings should help PAY FOR Romney’s plans to cut taxes on the SUPER RICH. But think there is no time to still enter and win? WRONG! The nominee will need 1,144 delegates at the Republican National Convention — and yes, as the REPUBLICAN NOMINEE you will get a FREE trip for you and your family to TAMPA, FLORIDA, in LATE AUGUST, where we will arrange 10 PERCENT OFF TICKETS to Adventure Island, where you can “splash your way through more than 700 feet of twists and turns, water mines and a grand finale plunge into a refreshing pool.” But will somebody beat you to those 1,144 delegates? NO! In an effort to become more like the DEMOCRATIC PARTY, the REPUBLICAN PARTY adopted rules this year guaranteeing TOTAL CHAOS because the DEMOCRATS always seemed to have so much more fun with their total chaos. This is why Newt Gingrich believes nobody can get a majority of the delegates before the convention, which will lead to a wild, possibly suicidal, floor fight. “When the primaries are over and it is clear nobody has won, who will do the best job against Barack Obama?” Gingrich asked this week. The ANSWER may be YOU! If in November, gasoline is $12.99 per gallon, unemployment is 15 percent and even Mitt Romney is forced to sell one of his bicoastal Cadillacs, the United States may descend into a state of CHAOS, TURMOIL and ZOMBIE ATTACKS, making the Republican nominee look MARGINALLY ACCEPTABLE. So you have a chance to ENTER, RUN and WIN IT ALL. We even have your CAMPAIGN SLOGAN ready for you: Vote for ME. How much WORSE can I be than the REST of them?
Prayer for today Thank you, loving God, for watching over us in difficult situations. Amen.

Bet on feds to nix voter ID STARKVILLE — Set aside for a moment your actual opinion of whether or not Mississippi’s new voter ID laws are a necessary safeguard against voter fraud and consider only the fact that 2012 is year in which an incumbent Democrat is seeking re-election to the White House. Consider, too, that Democratic President Barack Obama appointed U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to lead the U.S. Justice Department, which continues to hold tremendous sway over election law in Mississippi through our state’s undeniable status as a “covered jurisdiction” under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965. “Covered jurisdiction” states, counties and municipalities cannot implement voting law changes without federal “preclearance” by the Justice Department. States included in the “covered jurisdiction” by the Voting Rights Act include: Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Texas, and Virginia. There are also counties in California, Florida, New York, North Carolina, and South Dakota as well as some cities in Michigan and New Hampshire that are included. The Voting Right Act provided extensive federal oversight of elections administration in states with “a history of discriminatory voting practices.” Despite the passage of 46 years, the highest percent-
The original “Hollywood blacklist” dates back to 1947, when 10 members of the Communist Party, present or former, invoked the Fifth Amendment before the House Committee on Un-American Activities. The party was then a wholly owned subsidiary of the Comintern of Joseph Stalin, whose victims had surpassed in number those of Adolf Hitler. In a 346-17 vote, the Hollywood Ten were charged with contempt of Congress and suspended or fired. The blacklist had begun. Directors, producers and writers who had been or were members of the party and refused to recant lost their jobs. Politically, the blacklist was a victory of the American right. In those first years of the Cold War, anti-communism and Christianity were mighty social, political and cultural forces. Hollywood acknowledged their power in what it produced. But over a half century, the left captured and now controls the culture. The Legion of Decency is dead. The Filthy Speech Movement from Berkeley 1964 has triumphed. The “seven filthy words” of comedians like Lenny Bruce and George Carlin are regular fare in films and steadily creeping into prime-time. Movies show sexually ex-

Alabama, Kansas, Mississippi, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Wisconsin. Expect the Justice Department to reject voter ID laws in all the Southern “covered jurisdiction” states. Why? Because the law empowers them to do so and it’s politically advantageous to the party in power. Those who fail to accept that the U.S. Justice Department is a political animal as much as a legal one are either naïve in the extreme or simply disingenuous. When the Justice Department under former President George W. Bush in 2007 prosecuted Noxubee County Democratic Party Chairman Ike Brown for systematically violating white voters’ rights and disenfranchising white voters in Noxubee County in violation of the Voting Rights Act, Democrats howled about partisanship and politicization of election law enforcement by the Bush Administration. When Justice eventually torpedoes Mississippi’s voter ID law, Republicans will make the same accusations against the Obama Administration. But as yet, Justice can’t kill Mississippi’s voter ID law until after the Legislature passes enabling legislation and the final voter ID plan is formally submitted by Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann to the Justice Department for federal preclearance.

age black voters in the country, and the largest number of black elected officials of any state in the Sid Salter union, Mississippi election Columnist law changes are still subject to federal preclearance. In recent months, the U.S. Justice Department has blocked a new South Carolina law that requires voters to have photo identification, claiming that the law impedes the ability of minority voters to vote. In the most recent action in Texas, the Justice Department told Texas officials that Hispanic voters in that state are more than twice as likely than non-Hispanic voters to lack a driver’s license or personal state-issued photo ID and said Texas had failed to prove that the new law “has neither a discriminatory purpose nor effect.” Back in November, Mississippi voters approved an initiative that requires voters to submit a photo ID in order to vote in a manner that already had survived U.S. Supreme Court scrutiny in 2008 in an appeal from a similar law in Indiana. The Supreme Court ruling in the Indiana case emboldened a number of states to adopt similar voter ID legislation. Over the last year, new voter ID laws have been enacted in

All of this testifies to the cultural ascendancy of the left. Yet every establishment has its own orthodoxy, its own taboos, and its own blacklist. And, despite its pretensions to be open to all ideas, our cultural establishment is no different. While the Hollywood Ten have been rehabilitated and heroized, it is Christians and conservatives who are in cultural cross hairs now. Traditional Catholic morality is mocked, as are Southern evangelical Christians. And the new cultural establishment has erected a new regime called Political Correctness.

students must follow. The new mortal sins are not filthy talk or immoral conduct, but racism, sexism, homophobia and nativism. The establishment alone defines these sins and enforces the proscriptions against them, from which there is no appeal, only the obligatory apology, the act of contrition and the solemn commitment never to sin again. If you still believe homosexuality is unnatural and immoral and gay marriage absurd, you are a homophobe who is to keep his mouth shut. If you think some ethnic and racial groups have greater natural athletic, academic or artistic talents, don’t go there, if you do not wish an early end to your journalistic career. If you think illegal aliens should be sent home and legal immigration should mirror the ethnic makeup of the nation, you are a xenophobe and a racist. All of these terms -- racist, sexist, homophobe -are synonyms for heretic. Any of them can get you hauled before an inquisition. To control the politics of a nation, control of the culture is a precondition. For who controls the culture defines what is moral and immoral, and what is heroic and villainous. And if you can set limits on what journalists write and broadcasters say, you can shape what people think.

State Hood hires ex-AG Mike Moore to sue BP BY JEFF AMY Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood has confirmed that he has hired former Attorney General Mike Moore and others to handle the state’s claims against BP PLC stemming from the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill. Hood hired fellow Democrat Moore, plus former state Supreme Court Justice Reuben Anderson and a forensic accounting firm to handle the state’s interests. Moore and Anderson signed a three-page contract with Hood dated Tuesday. Anderson works for the New Orleans-based Phelps Dunbar firm, while Moore heads his own firm in Flowood. The hiring of Moore and Anderson comes as Republican lawmakers consider curtailing Hood’s powers to hire outside lawyers and control litigation for state agencies. That dispute stems from past suits
by Hood and Moore that have resulted in big awards for Mississippi and big fees for private lawyers. “I have been working with former Supreme Court Justice Ruben Anderson and former Attorney General Mike Moore to assemble a team of lawyers and experts to quickly develop our economic damage model and calculate the economic loss to the state in the BP case,” Hood said in a statement released Tuesday. “I chose Justice Anderson, who has a reputation which is beyond reproach, for his gentlemanly negotiation skills and General Moore because of his experience in negotiating the largest settlement on behalf of the state in the nation’s history.” Moore was Mississippi’s attorney general from 1988 to 2004. Anderson was Mississippi’s first black state Supreme Court justice, serving from 1985 to 1991.

Hood said he had also hired New Orleans-based Legier & Co., a forensic accounting firm, to help Mississippi develop its economic damage model. He said the firm is working with Florida and Louisiana in a similar capacity and “has extensive experience in connection with BP oil spill claims.” The Associated Press had been making inquiries since Thursday, when Yallpolitics.com blogger Frank Corder wrote that Moore had been hired. Moore did
not return phone calls, and Hood’s office refused to confirm it until Tuesday. Mississippi has never formally sued BP over the Macondo well blowout, but is expected to engage in settlement talks along with other Gulf states. The British oil giant recently reached a multibillion settlement with lawyers repre-

Commission backs down on barking law Associated Press
BLOUNTVILLE, Tenn. — Sullivan County Commission members have put the quietus on a barking dog ordinance. Commissioners rejected the proposal for a second time this week. It was iden-
tical to one that failed two months ago. The proposal would have made it a civil offense to have a dog that barked, whined or howled “excessively, continuously or untimely” and disturbed any county resident’s “repose”
or the peace of any neighborhood. Fne would have been $50 to $100 per day. Twelve commissioners supported the measure the first time, but the only “aye” votes Monday came from the two primary sponsors.
Dollars, endorsements shifting toward Romney and primary season.” Dole, the former Senate Majority Leader and a Romney supporter, suggested that rival Rick Santorum is getting close to a decision point on whether to stay in or surrender his bid for the nomination. Dole, who became the GOP nominee in 1996 on his third try, said former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is “probably finished, or almost finished.” “Rick, I think, he’s got a real problem. In every race, Romney is going to pick up delegates,” Dole told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Wednesday. “It’s getting close to the point where he’s got to take a hard look at it.” Bush’s support came as a surprise to the Romney campaign. The former Florida governor personally emailed Romney Wednesday morning to say he planned to make the endorsement. Romney had emailed supporters Tuesday night that his Illinois win “means we are that much closer to securing the nomination, uniting our party, and taking on President Obama.” He urged the party to fall in line behind his bid, saying “We are almost there.” The former Massachusetts governor planned to spend much of Thursday personally courting members of Congress and other officials in Washington. Still, the front-runner’s
BY KASIE HUNT Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Fresh off a decisive victory in Illinois, Mitt Romney won critical establishment support Wednesday from former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and got new help from former Sen. Bob Dole as he looks to unite the Republican Party behind his candidacy. Romney said he’s “almost there” after pursuing the GOP nomination for six years, and there are fresh signs that big GOP donors and other party figures will follow Bush’s lead after sitting on the sidelines for much of the primary season. The son of one president and the brother of another, Bush had stayed out of the race for months. Some party elders publicly had urged him to become a candidate when it looked like Romney was having trouble closing the deal. On Wednesday, a day after Romney won Illinois by 12 points, Bush signaled that was no longer the case. “Now is the time for Republicans to unite behind Governor Romney and take our message of fiscal conservatism and job creation to all voters this fall,” Bush said in a written statement that suggested the race is all but over. He congratulated the other Republican candidates “for a hardfought, thoughtful debate
campaign ran into some trouble Wednesday after a senior adviser compared Romney’s policy positions to an “Etch A Sketch” toy, suggesting they could easily change to appeal to more moderate general election voters. “I think you hit a reset button for the fall campaign. Everything changes,” said the adviser, Eric Fehrnstrom, during an interview on CNN. “It’s almost like an Etch A Sketch. You can kind of shake it up and restart all over again.” Asked to clarify the remark, Fehrnstrom didn’t back way from the comment. He said only that the general election is “a different race, with different candidates, and the main issue now becomes” exclusively President Barack Obama. The comment played into the caricature of the former Massachusetts governor as someone who readily changes his positions to accommodate political realities. Romney supported abortion rights, for example, when he ran for governor of Massachusetts. Now he says he opposes abortion. Romney and his allies spent hundreds of thousands of dollars more than Rick Santorum and his backers in Illinois, and it showed in Tuesday’s results: Romney trounced Santorum by 47 percent to 35 percent.

Next, Topol said his team soon will begin needed studies to learn how early those cells might appear before a heart attack, and if spotting them could allow use of clot-preventing drugs to ward off damage. Some San Diego emergency rooms will study an experimental blood test with chest-pain sufferers whose standard exams found no evidence of a heart attack, he said. Don’t expect a test to predict heart attacks any time soon — a lot more research is needed, caution heart specialists not involved with the study. But they’re intrigued. “This study is pretty exciting,” said Dr. Douglas Zipes of Indiana University and past president of the American College of Cardiology. It suggests those cells are harmed “not just in the minutes
BY LAURAN NEERGAARD Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Too often, people pass a cardiac checkup only to collapse with a heart attack days later. Now scientists have found a clue that one day may help doctors determine if a heart attack is imminent, in hopes of preventing it. Most heart attacks happen when fatty deposits in an artery burst open, and a blood clot then forms to seal the break. If the clot is too big, it blocks off blood flow. The problem: Today’s best tests can’t predict when that’s about to happen. “We don’t have a way to get at whether an artery’s going to crack, the precursor to a heart attack,” said Dr. Eric Topol, director of California’s Scripps Translational Science Institute. Wednesday, Scripps researchers reported a new lead — by searching people’s blood for cells that appear to flake off the lining of a severely diseased artery. Topol’s team measured high levels of those cells, de-
prior” to a heart attack, he said, “but probably hours, maybe even days” earlier. “It’s a neat, provocative first step,” added Dr. William C. Little, cardiology chief at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center. “But it is not a biomarker ready for prime time.” About 935,000 people in the U.S. have a heart attack every year, according to government figures. Doctors can tell who’s at risk: People with high blood pressure and cholesterol, who smoke, have diabetes, are overweight or sedentary. But there’s no way to tell when a heart attack is imminent. Tests can spot that an artery is narrowing, or if a heart attack is under way or already has damaged the heart muscle. They can’t tell if the plaque inside arteries is poised to rupture. So it’s not that uncommon for someone to suffer a heart attack shortly after passing a stress test or being told that their chest pain was nothing to worry about.

Higher costs for materials, labor and freight have squeezed Nike’s profits, but the sports apparel maker has still managed to grow its bottom line the past three quarters. It helps that Nike has enjoyed healthy demand for its shoes, clothes and gear, and increased prices without a consumer backlash. That’s a big reason why Wall Street expects the company to report higher earnings today for its fiscal third quarter.

Jets put hold on Tebow deal
Sports
Ole Miss names Bjork AD BY DAVID BRANDT Associated Press
BY DENNIS WASZAK JR. Associated Press
NEW YORK — Just another crazy day for the New York Jets. Hours after the Jets announced they had agreed in principle to acquire Tim Tebow from the Denver Broncos, ESPN reported that the deal hit a snag. Tebow Time on Broadway? Well, not quite yet. Citing anonymous sources, ESPN says Wednesday that provisions in the quarterback’s contract are causing complications in the completion of the trade. ESPN says Tebow’s contract has $5 million worth of “recapture language,” which means the Jets would have to pay back some money to the Broncos. The hang-up came hours after the Jets declared they were bringing the polarizing quarterback to New York as a complement to starter Mark Sanchez. Denver general manager Brian Xanders said the Broncos would receive fourth- and sixth-round draft picks, while New York would get a seventhrounder — all in 2012. It’s just another bizarre moment for the Jets, a team that has had its share of them over the years, conjuring memories of Bill Belichick’s hiring as coach and his resignation one day later. The Jets would have lots of explaining to do — no matter whether the deal goes through or falls apart. If the sides work things out, “Tebowmania” likely would take over New York, just a few weeks after “Linsanity” swept the New York area and the rest of the NBA.

Western Kentucky’s Ross Bjork has been named Mississippi’s new athletic director. The 39-year-old Bjork has been the athletic director at Western Kentucky since March 2010 and has also worked in the athletic departments at UCLA, Miami and Missouri. Ole Miss announced Bjork’s hiring on Wednesday afternoon and will have an official press conference on Thursday. The Dodge City, Kan., na-
tive will take over for Pete Boone in mid-April. Boone announced his retirement in November after more than 13 years as Mississippi’s AD. Ole Miss chancellor Dr. Dan Jones, along with a committee led by former Ole Miss quarterback Archie Manning and FedEx chairman Mike Glenn, made the Bjork hire. “I’ve spent a lot of time with him,” Jones said in a released statement. “Integrity and character are important to me, and I’m very comfortable with his strengths on those at-
tributes. I’m also very pleased with the professional track he’s taken in college athletics. He has trained for this job through his education and a steady, upward track in athletic administration, and he’s demonstrated a commitment to Ole Miss and to winning on and off the field.” One of Bjork’s challenges will be helping rebuild Mississippi’s football program. The Rebels finished 2-10 last season, 0-8 in the Southeastern Conference. Fourth-year football coach Houston Nutt
was fired after the season and Hugh Freeze replaced him in December. Bjork was the youngest athletics director in the Football Bowl Subdivision while at Western Kentucky and is considered a fast riser and major fundraiser. “The future of WKU Athletics is bright and the foundation is in place for greatness to occur for years to come,” Bjork said in a statement released by Western Kentucky.

BOONEVILLE — Northeast Mississippi Community College sophomore sensation Anna Brooke Page continues to add to her accolades. The Northeast sophomore was selected to the National Junior College Athletic Association’s (NJCAA) Region XXIII Team and the 2012 Mississippi Association of Community & Junior Colleges (MACJC) All-Star squad.

ing 17.8 points per game. As an upper classman, Page pushed Northeast into the playoffs once again in 2012. Page collected 825 total points in her two-year stint at Northeast and averaged 60 percent shooting from the floor during that time. “Whoever lands Anna Brooke at the next level will be very pleased with her addition to their program,” Alexander said. “She will definitely have a big impact at the next level.” This year’s women’s All-Star game will be held at East Central Community College in Decatur on March 27 with the women set to tip off at 5 p.m.

New Orleans Saints head coach Sean Payton was suspended without pay for the 2012 season by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, and former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams was banned indefinitely on Wednesday because the team’s players were paid bounties for big hits on opponents from 2009-11. The NFL said it is the first time the league has suspended a head coach. The explana-
tion for Payton’s ban indicates he tried to cover up what the Saints were doing. According to the NFL, Payton ignored instructions from the league and Saints ownership to make sure bounties weren’t being paid. The league also chastised him Wednesday for choosing to “falsely deny that the program existed,” and for attempting to “encourage the false denials by instructing assistants to ‘make sure our ducks are in a row.”’ Handing down sweeping
and serious punishment for a system that paid out thousands of dollars for knocking specific players out of games, Goodell also banned Saints general manager Mickey Loomis for the first eight regularseason games next season, and assistant coach Joe Vitt for the first six games. In addition, Goodell fined the Saints $500,000 and took away their second-round draft picks this year and next. Goodell called what the Saints did “particularly unusual and egregious” and “to-
tally unacceptable.” “We are all accountable and responsible for player health and safety and the integrity of the game. We will not tolerate conduct or a culture that undermines those priorities,” Goodell said in a statement released by the NFL. “No one is above the game or the rules that govern it.” After the NFL first made its investigation public on March 2, Williams admitted to — and apologized for — running the Please see SAINTS | 9
Cards’ Carpenter suffers setback in recovery Associated Press
JUPITER, Fla. — Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter won’t start opening day after a setback in his recovery from a bulging disk in his neck. The right-hander returned to St. Louis on Tuesday for tests. He threw live batting practice Sunday but didn’t feel right the next day. “He looked really good and felt good; the next day he just didn’t respond like we had
hoped,” manager Mike Matheny said Wednesday. “His shoulder is just not responding and they’re uncertain of the root of it. That’s what they’re trying to get to with tests on the neck and shoulder and trying to figure out where it’s all coming from.” Kyle Lohse will start April 4 at Miami in his place. Lohse was 14-8 with a 3.39 ERA last season, leading the Cardinals in wins and ERA.
“It’s an honor,” Lohse said. “But it comes meaning that Carp’s not available — that’s the tough part about it. I wish it were under different circumstances, but I’m proud to take the ball on opening day.” Righty Lance Lynn, a setup man, will take Carpenter’s spot in the rotation. Lynn is 1-0 with a 1.64 ERA in 11 innings this spring. He made his second spring start Monday. The Cardinals now must
replace Lynn in the bullpen. Carpenter, who turns 37 in April, has been limited in workouts since being diagnosed with the bulging disk March 3. The Cardinals had initially planned to limit his spring training work after Carpenter pitched 273 1-3 innings last season — including playoffs — the most in baseball. Please see CARDS | 9

â&#x20AC;&#x153;WKU fans can always count on the Bjork family being proud members of Hilltopper Nation.â&#x20AC;? Before going to WKU, he spent the previous five years at UCLA, where he directed all fundraising activities. He previously worked at Miami and Missouri after getting his start at Western Kentucky as an athletic development coordinator in 1996-97. Now heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be charged with helping the Rebels compete in the loaded SEC. Ole Miss has an annual athletic budget of about $50 million, which is dwarfed by several other SEC powerhouses. Bjork made decisive moves with coaches at Western Kentucky, despite his relatively short tenure. After football coach Willie Taggartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 7-5 season this year, Bjork renegotiated his deal and more than doubled the head coachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s base salary to $475,000. He fired menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basketball coach Ken McDonald midseason after a 5-11 start and replaced him with Ray Harper, who later became the permanent coach and one of the highest-paid coaches in the conference with a base salary of $375,000.

program as the Saintsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; defensive coordinator from 2009-11. He was hired by the St. Louis Rams this offseason. Goodell will review Williamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; status after the upcoming season and decide whether he can return to the league. The Saints now must decide who will coach the team while Payton is barred, his suspension is effective April 1, and who will make roster moves while Loomis is out. After the NFL made clear that punishments were looming, Payton and Loomis took the blame for violations that they acknowledged â&#x20AC;&#x153;happened under our watchâ&#x20AC;? and said Saints owner Tom Benson â&#x20AC;&#x153;had nothing to doâ&#x20AC;? with the bounty pool, which reached as much as $50,000 in 2009, the season the Saints won the Super Bowl. The NFL said the scheme involved 22 to 27 defensive players, and that targeted opponents included quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers, Cam Newton, Brett Favre and Kurt Warner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Knockoutsâ&#x20AC;? were worth $1,500 and â&#x20AC;&#x153;cartoffsâ&#x20AC;? $1,000, with payments doubled or tripled for the playoffs. According to the league, Saints defensive captain Jonathan Vilma offered $10,000 to any player who knocked then-Vikings QB Favre out of the 2010 NFC championship game. All payouts for specific performances in a game, including interceptions or causing fumbles, are against NFL rules. The NFL warns teams against such practices before each season, although in the aftermath of the revelations about the Saints, current and former players from various teams talked about that sort of thing happening frequently.

LAS VEGAS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Doctors at a Las Vegas hospital decided to keep storied former UNLV basketball coach Jerry Tarkanian overnight Wednesday for observation after a mild heart attack, despite originally planning to release him, a hospital spokeswoman said. Mountainview Hospital spokeswoman Amanda Powell said Tarkanianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s status had not changed despite the change in plans. She said he is still doing â&#x20AC;&#x153;very well.â&#x20AC;? Powell declined to give further details.

Tu Holloway, Xavier
Darius Johnson-Odom, Marquette
Yancy Gates, Cincinnati
Lorenzo Brown, NC State
Top Dog — Kentucky (1) As expected, the Kentucky Wildcats dominated their first two opponents, averaging 84 points per game and a 15.5-point margin of victory en route to wins over instate rival Western Kentucky (No. 16 seed) and Iowa State (No. 8 seed). National Player of the Year candidate Anthony Davis averaged 15.5 points, 10.5 rebounds, 4.5 blocked shots and 4.0 assists in the first two NCAA Tournament games of his career, while sophomore Terrence Jones (22 points, 10 rebounds vs. WKU) and freshman Marquis Teague (24 points, 7 assists vs. ISU) each had shining moments over the weekend. Underdog – Xavier (10) The Musketeers relied on center Kenny Frease (25 points, 12 rebounds) and point guard Tu Holloway (21 points) to advance past No. 15 seed Lehigh, 70–58, holding Dukeslayer C.J. McCollum to 14 points on just 5-of-22 shooting. One of four teams from the state of Ohio in the Sweet 16, Xavier will face Baylor in a 3 vs. 10 pairing of athletic clubs that push the pace and know how to put a highlight reel together. The Bears surely expected a showdown with Duke at this point; the X-Men from Cincy present a mutant matchup with upset written all over it. The Rematch – Kentucky (1) vs. Indiana (4) Earlier this year, Big Blue Nation had illusions of grandeur, thoughts of the first undefeated season since Indiana went 32–0 to win the 1976 national title. That is, until IU’s Christian Watford hit a game-winning 3-pointer at the buzzer to hand the Cats their first of two losses this season. Kentucky fans are eager to face Indiana coach Tom Crean, since the former Marquette leader lacks 2003 Elite Eight Cat-killer Dwyane Wade this time around. The Quote “They were very bold. They were very bold the entire game. We started the game tentative and at different times, we seemed very tentative on the offensive end and they were bold throughout.” — Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, following the Devils’ loss to Lehigh.
Top Dog — Michigan State (1) Tom Izzo punched the ticket to his 10th Sweet 16, thanks in no small part to his all-everything point forward Draymond Green. No insult intended Steve Smith, but Sparty has not seen a super-sized talent like Green since Magic was still Earvin Johnson in East Lansing. When times got tough in a hard-fought 65–61 win over Saint Louis, Green took control on both ends of the floor, handling the ball, scoring and play-making on the perimeter on offense while rebounding and intimidating in the paint on defense. Underdog – Florida (7) On paper, Florida had a favorable Round of 32 matchup against similarly undersized No. 2 seed Missouri. But as fate would have it, Mizzou was ousted early by No. 15 seed Norfolk State. Two-time national champion coach Billy Donovan would have no such problem, however, as UF toppled the Spartans 84–50. A streaky hot team with too many guards to guard, Florida shot lights out against Norfolk State, hitting 28-of-53 from the field (52.8 percent) and 10-of-28 from downtown (35.7 percent). Player to Watch – Darius Johnson-Odom, Marquette (3) Numero Uno in Marquette's all-out athletic attack, Darius Johnson-Odom is hoping to lead the Golden Eagles to their first Final Four since D-Wade carried the club on his back in 2003. Unlike Tom Crean’s crew, however, coach Buzz Williams’ team will not rely solely on a singular talent to stay alive. Instead, Marquette’s duo of JohnsonOdom and forward Jae Crowder will do the damage. The tag team combined for 34 of MU’s 62 points and 15 of the Eagles’ 36 rebounds during a 62–53 win over Murray State to advance to the Sweet 16. The Quote “I got a lot of those clovers, texting me, ‘Good luck, good luck, Kyle O’Quinn win!’ I had to leave my phone at the hotel because I was getting too many of those kinds of messages.” — Norfolk State’s Kyle O’Quinn, whose Irish surname and green-and-gold Spartan teammates proved to be good luck on St. Patrick’s Day weekend.
Top Dog — Syracuse (1) The Syracuse Orange advanced to the Sweet 16, but it wasn’t as easy as expected for a No. 1 seed. Coach Jim Boeheim’s club struggled to a 72–65 victory over UNCAsheville (16) in a game that included multiple controversial calls, including a late lane violation and tipped ball out of bounds that both went against Asheville. Syracuse played better in a 75–59 win over Kansas State (8), but was far from the terrifying team that went 33–2 overall and 17–1 in the Big East this year. Underdog – Cincinnati (6) The Bearcats are battle-tested. Cincy ran through the Big East Tournament, until falling short against Louisville in the conference’s first title game featuring two teams that were not original members. Then, Mick Cronin’s No. 6seeded club scrapped past No. 11 Texas, 65–59, and No. 3 Florida State, 62–56, all the way to the Sweet 16. Two of the four teams from Ohio square off when Cincinnati tips off against Ohio State in Boston on Thursday night. The big brother Buckeyes will have their hands full, especially OSU’s 5-star sophomore Jared Sullinger, who will go toe-to-toe with 6'9", 260-pound senior Yancy Gates. Missing in Action – Fab Melo, Syracuse (1) Jim Boeheim's signature 2-3 zone in no way resembles the suffocating matchup nightmare it did when 7-foot Brazilian shot-blocker Fab Melo patrolled the paint. The heart of SU’s defense has been ripped out of the middle, in the middle of the heart of the season due to ongoing academic issues. Syracuse still has leaders like guards Dion Waiters and Scoop Jardine, but at this point in the year, there is no replacement for the type of impact Melo provided defensively. The Quote “It was more a matter of the ball not going in. All of my shots pretty much felt good. … Things like that happen in basketball. The ball isn’t always going to bounce your way.” – Vanderbilt senior Jeffery Taylor, who went 4-of12 from the field in a 3-point loss to Wisconsin.
Top Dog — North Carolina (1) After getting shot-swatting forward John Henson back from a wrist injury suffered in the ACC Tournament, the Tar Heels suffered an even worse blow when ambidextrous assist man Kendall Marshall went down with a wrist injury of his own in the Round of 32 against overmatched Creighton. Fortunately, two-time national champion coach Roy Williams has one of the deepest rosters in the land. Harrison Barnes outplayed his Ames (Iowa) High School teammate, Creighton’s Doug McDermott, in their head-to-head reunion. The superb sophomore will be counted on to raise his game to another level, as will senior center Tyler Zeller, if the Tar Heels have any hopes of reaching the Final Four in New Orleans without a fullstrength effort from either Marshall or Henson. Underdog – Ohio (13) The Bobcats are moving on to their first Sweet 16 in school history after emotional wins over No. 4 seed Michigan, 65–60, and No. 12 “First Four” play-in South Florida, 62–56. Ohio hit 9-of-18 from 3-point range against USF after going 15-of-17 from the free throw line against the Maize and Blue. A combination of both hot streaks might be necessary in order to pull off an upset of heavily favored North Carolina in St. Louis. Player to Watch – Lorenzo Brown, NC State (11) The Wolfpack guard has been a statsheet stuffer in upset wins over San Diego State (6) and Georgetown (3). The 6'5" sophomore averaged 14.8 points, 7.5 rebounds, 7.5 assists and 1.5 steals over his first two games in the Dance. There was little Brown could not do for NC State when it mattered most against the Hoyas, as the clutch playmaker hit three crucial free throws in the final 10.6 seconds of a thrilling 66–63 victory. The Quote “Luckily it’s my right hand. If it was my left hand, then we’d probably have some problems.” — North Carolina point guard Kendall Marshall, who suffered a broken bone in his right wrist during the win over Creighton.
Indiana’s Watford moves on from Kentucky shot BY MICHAEL MAROT Associated Press
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Christian Watford has seen the replay of his buzzer-beating shot dozens of times over the past four months. Like other big moments in Hoosiers history — the five national championships, the undefeated season, Keith Smart’s winner in the 1987 title game — the image of Watford knocking down a 3-pointer in front of his own bench to beat No. 1 Kentucky 73-72 is one of
those moments that will be frozen in the mind of every Indiana fan. Everyone, that is, except perhaps the nonchalant 6-foot-9 junior who actually made the shot. “It’s kind of over with now,” Watford said Tuesday. “We’ve just got to move forward.” In Bloomington, moving forward means hanging banners. The north end of Assembly Hall is covered with cloth representing Big Ten titles, Final Four appearances, NIT championships,
poll titles and even an undefeated regular season. The south end is decorated with banners honoring the national championship teams. If the Hoosiers can beat Kentucky again in Friday night’s South Regional semifinal, the Hoosiers (278) will suddenly be within one victory of making a surprising addition to the rafters. But without Watford’s shot in December, none of this may have been possible. “I think it helped the
confidence immensely that they can prepare like they did, that they can play with that kind of intensity and that they can get the right result out of it. I think, very importantly, though, we learned a lot in that game,” coach Tom Crean said. “Our team was very young in that game and we played with tremendous intensity and enthusiasm and did some excellent things, but we were also very young, and I’d like to think that in the months’ time that we’ve really matured in our de-
cision-making and how to finish games.” The victory provided more than a morale boost or a learning experience. It also cemented Indiana’s resurgence. At the time, the Hoosiers were 8-0 but had not cracked the Top 25 because they had taken on schools such as Savannah State, Gardner-Webb and Stetson. Beating Kentucky suddenly legitimized what those inside the program already knew: Indiana basketball was ready to be rel-
evant again on the national stage. “A lot of people didn’t think we were very good then,” Watford said. “Once we got that win, things changed.” Watford, one of the cornerstones in Crean’s second recruiting class, became a star. Over the next 72 hours, his phone rang incessantly, text messages and emails poured in, and it seemed he couldn’t go anywhere without seeing the shot in commercials, on highlight shows.

As a sophomore this year, she is on the other side of recruitment (rush) and again felt hurt by how rude some of the new girls were. â&#x20AC;&#x153;PPPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;sâ&#x20AC;? letter spotlighted the snobbish, elitist attitude that turns many eligible young women away from sororities. To say a group is the best-of-the-best and exclusive is offensive. I hope more girls will look beyond the glitz and glamour and give a second hard look to all of the groups. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; JANE IN AKRON, OHIO DEAR ABBY: My first month in college was wonderful. Then came sorority rush. What followed was hell. I got a paddle with the Greek letters, though it was only a â&#x20AC;&#x153;memento.â&#x20AC;? Far worse was the social fragmenta-
tion of the women there. We immediately began to segregate into our little pledge classes, wore pins that identified our group and were typecast from the very beginning. After wrestling with this psychological social dilemma â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even becoming an active member, which would preclude me from ever joining another sorority â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I finally deactivated, switched to a much larger school with less emphasis on the Greek system and happily sailed through the rest of my college life with honors. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A HAPPY INDEPENDENT DEAR ABBY: As a member of a sorority, I have never heard of a sorority that used paddles to hit members. What bothers me is the apparent acceptance by â&#x20AC;&#x153;PPPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;sâ&#x20AC;? family members of this practice.
As a prosecutor for nearly 30 years, I do not condone in any way the use of a paddle, either in fraternities or sororities. A sorority is more than academics and whispers about hazing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;PPPâ&#x20AC;? should visit each chapter on the campus, attend rush and make her own decision. Only she can decide which sorority is right for her. If she pledges as a legacy, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be in a unique position to actively stop this practice if, in fact, it is occurring. If sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kicked out for not letting them paddle her, then she can shout it from the rooftops and maybe something will finally happen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;PPP,â&#x20AC;? stand up for what you believe. Choose a sorority you like, with women you would be proud to call your sisters, and you will have the time of your life and lifelong
friends who will see you through your old age. I know. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pledge my momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chapter, but a different one. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; BEEN THERE IN MONTANA

MICHIE, Tenn. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The students at Michie School had a visitor last week who showed them how a portable cotton gin worked and how the process would result in blue jeans. Debra Steen, a 4th & 5th grade Science teacher, had the idea to bring the cotton gin to school and it was approved by MES Principal Suzanne Henson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I teach ag in the classroom and I thought this was a great way to teach the students about how resources can be turned into goods and services,â&#x20AC;? said Steen. Joe McKinnon, a field representative with Tennessee Farm Bureau, brought his portable cotton gin to the school and displayed how it worked to all students from kindergarten through 8th grade at Michie. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He brought cotton plants and demonstrated how the process worked with his gin,â&#x20AC;? said Steen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The students loved it and it got to help them learn something about what they had been studying in the classroom.â&#x20AC;? Steen pointed out the hands-on lesson covered social studies, science and math in various ways. Michie student Eddie M said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was surprised to see how fragile cotton was after ginning, but how strong it was after it was woven together.â&#x20AC;? Student Deja G was interested in how the machine removed the seeds and made the cotton clean and fluffy. All of the students were amazed that a farmer sells a bale of cotton for around $386. That sounded like a lot to them until they learned 215 pairs of blue jeans could be made from one bale of cotton. If those jeans are sold for $30 a pair, the value of the cotton bale is more than $6,000.
