Mississippi challenges federal expert in mental health trial

State said it’s not breaking federal law and the Justice Department is
overreaching, demanding limitless services that would cost too much
The Associated Press
JACKSON — A top expert
testified Wednesday that his
lasting image of Mississippi’s
current mental health care sys-
tem is a room full of apparent-
ly overmedicated men, while
a community mental health
worker herself diagnosed with
schizophrenia says she avoids
state mental hospitals because
she fears losing her freedom.
The U.S. Justice Depart-
ment seeks to prove in the
trial that began Tuesday that
Mississippi’s current system
violates the Americans with
Disabilities Act. Federal law-
yers asked U.S. District Judge
Carlton Reeves to force the
state to provide more mental
health services outside of state
hospitals.
The state said it’s not break-
ing federal law and that the
Justice Department is over-
reaching, demanding limitless
services that would cost too
much.
Melody Worsham said she’s
checked into other hospitals
six times because of mental
health crises, The Meridian
Star reported , but has always
avoided Mississippi’s four men-
tal hospitals.
“I’m terrified of them,” Wor-
sham said. “I would never want
to be (there) and I’ve made ef-
forts in the past to stay out of
them.”
Worsham testified she has
a diagnosis of schizophrenia
and works as a certified peer
support specialist for the Men-
tal Health Association of South
Mississippi, using her experi-
ence to help others in recovery.
“Not everything needs hos-
pitalization. Not everything is
an emergency,” Worsham said.
“When I go to a hospital, I’m
losing all power over myself.
And that itself is traumatizing.”
Even on the urban Gulf
Coast, Worsham said mobile
crisis centers had encouraged
her to drive to a hospital or
call police rather than respond
themselves.
When a peer support spe-
cialist at South Mississippi
State Hospital in Purvis calls
Worsham about a patient’s
release, Worsham testified
there’s no formal process for
establishing continuing care.
“She can’t tell me who that
person is or what kind of help
they might need,” Worsham
said.
A demand for better dis-
charge planning is a key ele-
ment of the federal case.

done is being done by vol-

United Way of Lown-

said Volunteer Director
Errolyn Gray has been

Sanders said forming a
separate nonprofit to fo-
cus just on disaster recov-
ery makes the clean-up
process more efficient.
“I’m on the (CRLC)
board, so I’m aware of the
needs, and because this
is Errolyn’s full-time gig
with United Way, it made
sense for us to do it this
way,” Sanders said. “It’s
the most efficient and we
know we’re getting volun-
teers we can trust.”

CRLC — which is
under United Way’s um-
brella as a 501(c)3, said
Sanders — was formed
as a way to respond to
the community’s finan-
cial needs in the early
days after the tornado
and subsequent flooding.
Because of its non-profit
status, CRLC is eligible
to receive government
funds and other grants.

CRLC also coordinates
volunteers and manages
recovery efforts, includ-
ing home repairs and re-
building, on a long-term
basis.
Although the Federal
Emergency Management
Agency denied the Missis-
sippi Emergency Manage-
ment Agency’s request
for federal individual as-
sistance — money allo-
cated specifically to help
Columbus and Lowndes
County residents affected
by the tornado and flood-
ing — CRLC received a
$250,000 disaster assis-
tance grant from FEMA,
which Lowndes County
Emergency Management
Agency will distribute to
CRLC in $50,000 incre-
ments. That money can
be used in response to ap-
plications for assistance
with everything from
rebuilding costs not cov-
ered by insurance to tem-
porary housing for those
displaced when their
rental homes were badly
damaged.
“We can respond to
basic needs,” Clinkscales
said. “Anything they need
after the storm, we want
to be able to provide.”
CRLC has also re-
ceived donations from
religious organizations
and businesses, as well as
gift cards from Walmart’s
corporate office they have
used to pay for some of
those basic and imme-
diate needs. Clinkscales
said those funds will be

MISSISSIPPI VOICES
Time to scale
back Mississippi’s
regulatory burden
It would take
the average
person more than
13 weeks to wade
through the 9.3
million words and
117,558 restric-
tions in Missis-
sippi’s regulatory
code.
This is accord-
ing to an analy-
sis from James Brett Kittredge
Broughel and
Jonathan Nelson
at the Mercatus Center at George Mason
University. They have taken a deep dive
into the regulatory burdens of each state,
including Mississippi.
What do regulations look like in Mis-
sissippi? In terms of government subdivi-
sions, the biggest regulator, by far, is the
Department of Health, with more than
20,000 regulations. That is followed by
the Department of Human Services with
over 12,000 regulations, and 10,000 plus
regulations for state boards, commissions,
and examiners. The most regulated indus-
tries were ambulatory healthcare services,
administrative and support services, and
mining (except oil and gas).
Overall, Mississippi was middle of the
pack when it came to administrative regu-
lations. It would take 31 weeks to read all
22.5 million words in the New York Codes,
Rules and Regulations, which has 307,636
restrictions. But regardless of the state,
there is generally one consistent – the
number of regulations are only increasing.
Regulatory growth has a detrimental
effect on economic growth. We now have
a history of empirical data on the relation-
ship between regulations and economic
growth. A 2013 study in the Journal of
Economic Growth estimates that federal
regulations have slowed the U.S. growth
rate by 2 percentage points a year, going
back to 1949. A recent study by the Merca-
tus Center estimates that federal regula-
tions have slowed growth by 0.8 percent
since 1980. If we had imposed a cap on
regulations in 1980, the economy would
be $4 trillion larger, or about $13,000 per
person. Real numbers, and real money,
indeed.
On the international side, researchers
at the World Bank have estimated that
countries with a lighter regulatory touch
grow 2.3 percentage points faster than
countries with the most burdensome
regulations. And yet another study, this
published by the Quarterly Journal of
Economics, found that heavy regulation
leads to more corruption, larger unofficial
economies, and less competition, with no
improvement in public or private goods.
A prescription for lowering the regula-
tory burden on a state is the one-in-two-
out rule, or a regulatory cap. In 2017, one
of President Donald Trump’s first execu-
tive orders was to require at least two prior
regulations to be identified for elimination
for every new regulation issued. This is
badly needed. We have gone from 400,000
federal regulations in 1970 to over 1.1
million today.
Many years ago, British Columbia took
on a similar mission. And in less than two
decades, their regulatory requirements
have decreased by 48 percent. The result
has been an economic revival for the Cana-
dian province.
And one state has the unique ability to
rewrite their book on regulations. This
year, the state of Idaho essentially re-
pealed their entire state code book when
the legislature adjourned without renew-
ing the regulations, something they are
required to do each session because the
state has an automatic sunset provision.
Now, the governor of Idaho is tasked
with implementing an emergency regula-
tion on any rule that should remain. The
legislature will consider them next year.
There are certainly needed regulations,
just as there are unnecessary or outdated
regulations that serve little purpose. But,
the difference is, the burden on regula-
tions now switches from the governor or
legislature needing to justify why a regu-
lation should to be removed to justifying
why we need to keep a regulation.
Whether it’s a sunset provision or
one-in-two-out policy, Mississippi should
move in the direction toward a smaller
regulatory state with more freedom. And
if a regulation is truly important to our
well-being, let the regulators prove why. In
a state in need of economic growth, let’s
find a way to remove unnecessary barriers
and inhibitors.

ing and Communications for Mississippi

tisan, free-market think tank.

In what remains the

assault in history, 150,000 Slim Smith
Allied forces scrambled
from landing craft and
scurried for the beaches under with-
ering German fire that cut down hun-
dreds before their feet ever touched
the beach.
Facing what seemed to be almost
certain death, American, British and
Canadian forces defied every human
instinct, pressing forward, taking the
beach, storming the German fortifi-
cations and establishing a foothold on the 101st Airborne Division immor-
French soil that is today recognized
as the turning point in World War II.
Today, 75 years later, we are still
awed by the courage of these men.
We ask, what kind of man could do daughters and resumed a normal life,
what these men did on those beaches working 32 years as a mailman.
in 1944?
Surely, they must have had some
qualities of courage and tenacity that
evade most mortals. Certainly, they
must have been forged in the fires of
combat, veteran soldiers who were
well-acquainted with the chaos and
blood and brutality of fierce combat.
They must have been exceptional,
superior.
And yet, despite the volumes of
literature and historical study, we
find no explanation, nothing to con-
firm what we naturally assume about
these men.
Today, as we mark the anniversary
of D-Day, we again find ourselves in
awe of what we do know.
These were, by all accounts,

Running laboratory elementary
schools at Mississippi colleges and
universities is a perfectly fine idea,
particularly at institutions that have
teacher education programs.
These lab schools can provide
hands-on experience to college
students who aspire to be classroom
educators. They also can be testing
grounds to develop best practices
that can be shared with schools
throughout the state.
What’s not so good, though, is
when the Legislature underwrites
some lab schools with state funding
but not others. It raises the ques-
tion of whether the appropriation is
based on considerations other than
merit.
That’s the issue raised by the
Clarion Ledger’s reporting this

no more than boys, some
as young as 18. Few were
veteran fighters. For
most, D-Day was their
first exposure to combat
of any type.
Back home, there
would have been little to
distinguish them from
anyone else.
They were just ordi-
nary young men who,
when asked to do the
extraordinary, answered
that call with great cour-
age and sacrifice.
They were men like Brad Freeman
of Caledonia, now 96, who joined the
ever-dwindling ranks of D-Day veter-
ans to return to France this week to
participate in the 75th Anniversary
commemorations.
Freeman was a member of the
506th Parachute Infantry Division of

es to change not only the tide of the
war, but our nation and world in ways
that still persist today.
Until June 6, 1944, the outcome of
the war was not certain. Had the in-
vasion failed, it may have taken years
to bring the war to an end and even
then it is unknown what sort of peace
would have emerged.
As we know, the D-Day invasion
was the beginning of the end and
set the stage for changes that would
reshape the world and our nation.
When soldiers returned home,
thousands went to college on the GI
Bill or bought homes through the VA
loan program. Prior to that, college
educations and home ownership were
years to a preschool operated by the
University of Mississippi.
The Willie Price Learning
Lab serves about 72 preschoolers
currently but expects to grow that
number by 50 percent in the fall.
An Ole Miss spokesman said the
preschool has used the state appro-
priation in past years to achieve and
maintain its national accreditation.
For the coming year, the suggestion
is the school may use the earmark
to subsidize tuition (which has been
running about $6,000 a year) to fam-
ilies of modest means who work at
Ole Miss or live in the Oxford area.
The Jackson newspaper reports,
however, that there are three other
universities and one community
college with preschools that have
the same national accreditation as

other four preschools haven’t re-

almost the exclusive domain of the
wealthy. It was something working
class people generally could never
aspire to.
More than any other single factor,
the GI Bill created the middle class in
America, setting the stage for an eco-
nomic boom that elevated the U.S.
into the world’s greatest economy.
The successful outcome of the war
also marked the beginning of the Civ-
il Rights movement as black soldiers
demanded the rights of citizenship
they fought for overseas. Likewise,
the war expanded the prospects of
women, many of whom worked in
factories as America’s men went to
war. Until then, the career options
for women were few — mostly in the
fields of teaching or nursing.
That women could do “men’s
work” opened up a world of opportu-
nities that had not previously existed.
The effects of World War II cannot
be overestimated. Like the American
Revolution and the Civil War, it was
an event that shaped our nation.
How much of that would have
happened — or when would it have
happened — if the D-Day invasion
would have failed? We have no way of
knowing.
What we do know is that the inva-
sion did succeed and the world and
our nation was forever changed.
As we consider the history of
our nation, we think of great men
— Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln,
Roosevelt — and their great contri-
butions.
Today, on the 75th Anniversary
of D-Day, we should think instead
of ordinary men, most of whom are
unmentioned in the history books.
Men like Brad Freeman.
All these years later, we are still in
awe of them.

ceived a cent of state help to achieve
that designation or for anything
else.
So why does the Ole Miss pre-
school get preferential treatment?
Probably because it has connec-
tions.
The Senate Education Commit-
tee Chairman, Gray Tollison, is
from Oxford and an Ole Miss alum.
A large number of lawmakers tend
to have a soft spot for the state’s
flagship university, as well.
If that’s what’s been going on, it
isn’t right.
If the Legislature can afford to
underwrite one college’s accredited
lab school, it should underwrite all
of them.
If it can’t afford all of them, it
should either fund none, or only
authorize as many as it can support.

Shaw

Shaw will officially be-
gin his new position on
July 1.
He is following Judith
A. “Judy” Bonner, who in
January announced her
intention to retire from
her role as MSU’s provost.
“I was impressed not
only with Dr. Shaw’s ex-
emplary record of leader-
ship and accomplishment
over the last three-plus
decades at MSU, but also
with his passionate vision
and enthusiasm for aca-
demic excellence, student
success and expanding
opportunity and access,”
Keenum said in the re-
lease. “I’m confident that
Dr. Shaw will make an
immediate impact on our
university in this new and
demanding role. David un-
derstands our land-grant
mission and the diverse
constituencies we serve. I
have great personal confi-
dence in his commitment
to MSU.”
Shaw’s career with
MSU began in 1985, when
he joined the faculty as
an assistant professor in
the Department of Plant
Pathology and Weed Sci-
ence. In 1999, he earned
the university’s highest
honorary distinction
and was recognized as a
William L. Giles Distin-
guished Professor.
Shaw currently serves
as MSU’s vice president
for research and econom-
ic development. Accord-
ing to the release, under
Shaw’s leadership, MSU
now accounts for more
than half of all funded
university research in the
state of Mississippi, with
research expenditures in
excess of $240 million.
Mississippi State has
attended Carnegie R1
status and the National
Science Foundation ranks
it 94th overall in research
and development and
64th among public uni-
versities. MSU’s rankings
include a No. 9 ranking in
agriculture research and
No. 17 in social science
research.

BULLPEN SHOULDERING LOAD FOR BULLDOGS

No. 6 national seed Mississippi State
counting on another strong effort
from relievers against No. 11 Stanford
BY BEN PORTNOY
bportnoy@cdispatch.com

STARKVILLE — The Mississippi State baseball

team was riding high following a series sweep against
Georgia in late April.
The Bulldogs had just scored 34 runs against the No.
3 team in the country. But while the offense thrived, the
bullpen faltered. In the final two games of the three-
game set, the bullpen allowed seven runs in the final
two innings — including four in the ninth of a 6-5 victory
April 28.
Since then, the bullpen for No. 6 national seed MSU
(49-13) has become one of coach Chris Lemonis’ biggest
weapons entering the NCAA tournament’s Starkville Su-
per Regional against No. 11 seed Stanford (45-12). Game
1 will be at 2 p.m. Saturday (ESPN2) at Dudy Noble Field.
MSU has four relievers who can shoulder the load —
all of whom were selected this week in the Major League

Peters defends NCAA javelin title, helps MSU take top three spots in event
From Special Reports
AUSTIN, Texas — Mississippi State
made history on Wednesday night at the
NCAA Outdoor Track and Field Champi-
onships, as sophomore Anderson Peters
defended his national title in the javelin
and led his teammates to the first sweep
of the podium since 1964.
MSU’s Curtis Thompson and Tyriq
Horsford joined Peters in taking the top
three places in the javelin for the 11th
sweep of any event podium in NCAA
history. The most recent
came in 2015 when Ore-
gon claimed the podium
in the men’s 1,500 meters.
The Ducks’ 1964 squad is
the only other trio to do so
in the men’s javelin, and
Peters
that was before the im-
plement was changed in
1986. MSU has won the national title in
the event in three of the last four years.
“That puts Mississippi State on the
board, most importantly,” MSU throws
coach April Thomas said. “It couldn’t
have happened to a better group of guys.
These guys work hard every day. They
feed off each other, so it makes my job
a lot easier. They’re so good sometimes
they don’t need my help.”
Peters is the third MSU athlete to
claim consecutive national champion-
ships. He threw a personal-best 86.62
meters (284 feet, 2 inches) to break
his school, meet, and national records.
The Bowerman candidate landed three
attempts beyond 84 meters. He has
thrown six collegiate all-time top-10
marks this year.
Thompson closed his Bulldog ca-
reer with another All-American per-
formance. The 2016 national champion
threw 78.43 meters (257-3) to finish
second. Horsford started off slowly with
a foul and a 70.97-meter (232-10) throw
on his first two attempts. Sitting in sixth
place, he vaulted to the bronze-medal
position on his third attempt with a mark

Seniors Cole Gordon

saved their best for last as
they hit the final stretch
of their MSU careers.
Gordon has sliced
his earned run average
up from 5.79 on April 28
against Georgia to 3.96
following MSU’s victory
against Miami on Sunday.
His 11 saves are tied for
fifth in the Southeastern

The Toronto Blue Jays
drafted Caracci last year
in the 37th round. The

him 16 rounds higher this
year. Caracci has 11 saves
in 2019, one more than he
did a season ago. His 21
career saves are good for
fifth in program history.
The redshirt junior

March 10 until April 20

a streak of 14 1/3 innings.
He enters the NCAA tour-

Zabowski, a first base-
man, is a first-time draft-
ee. He is hitting .316 with
48 runs scored, 16 dou-
bles, 11 home runs, and
48 RBIs. His .512 slug-
ging percentage is second
on the team.

a preseason first-team
All-SEC selection. Last
weekend, he hit .500 (7-

nament’s Oxford Region-
al with five runs scored,
three RBIs, a double, and
a home run.
Phillips began the
season in the weekend
rotation and has since
filled a hybrid starter/
bullpen role. Early in the
season, Phillips started
the Rebels’ first combined
no-hitter, throwing three
perfect innings with four
strikeouts on March 20
against Arkansas-Pine
Bluff.
The junior out of Tex-
arkana, Arkansas, passed
up draft prospects last
season to attend Ole Miss
out of Grayson Commu-
nity College. He was crit-
ical in the Rebels’ run
to the SEC tournament
title game. He turned in
a strong start against Ar-
kansas, going 5 2/3 in-
nings against Arkansas.
Roth also has been a
critical arm for the Rebels
in 2019. He has allowed a
run in two of his last 10
appearances, including
a string of six-straight
scoreless outings from
May 1-22.
The junior from Ox-
ford is 9-2 for his Ole Miss
career with a 3.63 earned
run average. He has
struck out 153 and walked
50.
All eight of the Reb-
el draftees will hold off
on any decisions as the
season continues. No. 12

will take on No. 5 national
seed Arkansas this week-

Five Alabama players
selected in draft
Five Alabama baseball
players from the 2018-19
roster were selected in
the MLB First-Year Play-
er Draft. Those five joined
a group of six incoming
signees who were drafted
in the three-day event.
The five selections
increased the Crimson
Tide’s all-time draft pick
total to 158 since the

one player selected in 41
consecutive years dating
back to 1979, and 48 of the
54 MLB drafts overall.
More recently, Ala-
bama has seen 50 play-
ers selected in the last 10
years, and 85 total across
the last 20 drafts dating

Alabama’s first three
picks from this year’s ros-
ter went in consecutive
rounds, starting with ju-
nior pitcher Deacon Med-
ders (San Diego Padres,
20th round, 593 overall).
The Crimson Tide then
had redshirt junior Davis
Vainer (Houston Astros,
21st round, 646 overall)
and junior Morgan Mc-
Cullough (Los Angeles
Angels, 22nd round, 661
overall) hear their names
called to end the stretch.
Next to go was graduate
transfer Jeremy Randolph
(St. Louis Cardinals, 26th
round, 785 overall) fol-
lowed by redshirt junior
Brock Love (Miami Mar-
lins, 34th round, 1,011
overall) to close out the
current roster’s 2018-19
draft list.
Alabama also saw sign-
ees CJ Abrams (San Di-
ego Padres, first round),
Antoine Jean (Minnesota
Twins, 17th round), Myles
Austin (Milwaukee Brew-
ers, 20th round), Owen
Diodati (Toronto Blue
Jays, 29th round), Jackson
Tate (Seattle Mariners,
32nd round), and Connor
Prielipp (Boston Red Sox,
37th round) selected.
All signees and under-

“As far as the javelin’s con-
cerned, we were perfect,”
MSU interim head coach
Chris Woods said. “We maxi-
mized the amount of points we
could get in that event. That’s
a great way to start the meet
off. Putting 24 points up at a
national championship isn’t
easy. There will be several
teams here that don’t do that
as a team, and we did it in one
event group.
On the track, two Bulldogs
saw their decorated careers
come to a close. Rasheed
Tatham finished 20th in the
400 -meter hurdles (51.28
seconds). He advanced to the
NCA A Championships in ev-
ery year of his career.
Dejon Devroe, a na-
tional scorer indoors last
year, earned second-team
All-American honors with a
10th-place finish in the 800m
(1:48.06).
Junior Stephen Jones’ in-
credible first season of stee-
plechase racing ended with
a 21st-place finish. Jones was
the Southeastern Confer-
ence runner-up and broke the
school record in the event,
which had stood since 1982.
Rivera Jr. leads Ole Miss
Sophomore John Rivera Jr.
earned second-team All-Amer-
ica honors Wednesday with a
13th-place finish in the 800.
Rivera, who is from Braden-
ton, Florida, ran the third-fast-
est first 400 in his heat, but he
finished sixth in heat three at 1
minute, 49.03 seconds.
Sophomore Waleed Suliman
(18th, 3:48.02) and freshman
Dalton Hengst (21st, 3:48.83)
earned Honorable Mention
All-American status after run-
ning in the men’s 1,500 semi-
finals. Suliman was near the
lead for the first 1,100 meters,
but a surge led by a 53.62 from
Arizona State senior William
Paulson, who won the heat at
3:45.82, eventually took control
of the race as Suliman fell off
the pace.
The race concludes two stel-
lar seasons by Suliman and
Hengst, who were part of the
SEC cross country team title
in the fall in addition to sever-
al key accomplishments during
the indoor and outdoor seasons.
Sophomore Allen Gordon
took home Honorable Mention
honors in the men’s long jump
in 17th place at 7.61m (24-11
3/4).
Women’s competition begins
Thursday. Ole Miss’ women’s
4x100 relay team of Kelly Rowe,
Jayda Eckford, Kaira Simmons,
and Brandee Presley will kick
things off at 7:02 p.m. live on
ESPNU.
Alabama’s Kigen
finishes second
Alabama senior Gilbert Ki-
gen burst from the pack in the
last 400 meters to take second
in the 10,000 on day one of the
NCAA Outdoor Track and Field
Championships.
Kigen ran with the front of
the main pack throughout the
race to keep pace through a
multitude of lead changes. With
one lap to go, he bolted to the
front and went stride for stride
with eventual champion Clay-
ton Young from BYU.
Kigen, who was seventh in
the 10,000 at last year’s NCAA
Championships, posted a time
of 29:18.10, less than two sec-
onds off the win.
On Friday, Kigen will run in
the 5,000, senior Kord Fergu-
son will compete in the discus,
and junior Shelby McEwen will
compete in the high jump.
Also Wednesday, junior
Robert Dunning posted a ca-
reer-best time of 13.60 in the
110 hurdles to finish ninth.
Bobby Colantonio Jr., the
only freshman among the 24
throwers who made up the
men’s hammer throw field,
finished 16th (218-1, 66.47 me-
ters).
Ferguson was 17th and fresh-
man Santiago Basso was 21st in
the shot put. Ferguson posted a
throw of 61-8.5 (18.81m), while
Basso went 59-5 (18.11m).
Women’s competition will
begin Thursday. Alabama has
17 women at the meet with 16
opportunities to score, the sec-
ond most of any team at the
meet, one behind Arkansas.

DILBERT
Dear Abby
D
EAR ABBY:
I dated a
man several
years ago, and we
just hooked up
again. In the inter-
im he had all of
his teeth pulled.
His dentures are
ill-fitting, and he
refuses to get
them adjusted.
ZITS As a result, he
goes without any
teeth, which I find
a whole lot less
than sexy. Our
love life is suffer-
Dear Abby
ing as a result.
He has tried to persuade
me to kiss him without the
teeth, or he sits around all
evening and then runs and
puts them in for a “bootie
call.” But now he doesn’t even
do THAT! He’ll wear the teeth
to work and other places, but
GARFIELD not with me. He expects me to
get in the mood, even though
he looks like Grandpa.
We had a spat about it,
and he called me shallow. Am
I? I take pride in my appear-
ance FOR HIM. I think he just
expects me to get over it and
make out with him toothless,
but I can’t! It’s not like we live
together. We see each other
once a week or less. Please
tell the truth here. — MAKING
THE EFFORT IN OHIO
DEAR MAKING: The truth
is, your friend needs to see a
CANDORVILLE
dentist and get
his false teeth
adjusted or
replaced. Out of
consideration for
you, he should
wear them when
he desires inti-
macy. That you
don’t get turned
on when he’s
toothless isn’t
shallow. I’m sure
many women
would feel the
same way.
DEAR ABBY:
I am a 53-year-
old man who
has had very few girlfriends,
although there are some
women who are interested and
who I would certainly date. The
problem is, for some reason,
I don’t move forward, and I’m
now worried that I’m so set in
my ways I’ll be alone for the
rest of my life.
Could the issue be that I
haven’t met the right person,
as I tell myself? Other reasons
could be my insecurity, lack
of trust in women, and my
fear that women won’t like my
lifestyle (I have no ambition).
Most people find a mate. Why
not me? — MR. ALONE
DEAR MR. ALONE: The
reason may be that, until now,
you haven’t been willing to
identify and work on the is-
sues that have prevented you
from finding one. A licensed
mental health professional
can help you overcome your
insecurities and inability to
trust, and understand what
they stem from. Once you
succeed at that, you may find
you have more ambition than
you currently think.
DEAR ABBY: My husband
and I were recently at an
upscale restaurant. I needed
to use the restroom. When I
approached the ladies’ room
door, it was closed. I knocked
twice and heard a grumbling
from inside. A minute later a
lady exited. She asked me if
I had knocked, and I replied
that I had. She then admon-
ished me in a stern voice as if
I were a child, saying, “Don’t
do that!”
Was I wrong to knock on
a restroom door that was
closed? Are we to assume that
someone is in there? I always
close the restroom door when
I leave because I assume that
people do not want a view of
the restroom while enjoying
dinner. — CONFUSED DINER
DEAR CONFUSED: Some
people turn the door handle
to see if the restroom is occu-
pied. Others knock, particular-
ly if it has been occupied for
an unusually long time. The
woman you encountered may
have been in a bad mood, or
felt that because you knocked
you had rushed her. You did
nothing wrong, and I hope you
didn’t let it ruin your evening.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June
6). Welcome to a purposeful
and self-directed year in which
there’s little standing in the
way of your self-expression. An
exciting list is in-development.
Fresh challenges, qualities you
want to embody, experiences
you’ll make happen and people
you want to know will all go on
the list. You’ll tick off items ev-

You make it about others. It’s
a tactic that’s worked wonders
for you, though you don’t realize
you’re doing it. You’re nowhere

TAURUS (April 20-May

everything. That’s what search
engines are for. Having excellent
judgment — that’s the rare
thing. Combine that with access
to a lot of information and it’s
the golden combo that gets you
paid.
GEMINI (May 21-June
21). Devote your time to the
ones who are devoted to you.
Pleasing the critics or trying to
impress the tastemakers is a
waste of time. There are very
few of them, and they’re not the
ones you live with day to day.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You have it within your power
(as well as within your talent
and your reach) to pull off a
show-stopping moment. Check
in, give your care, bring the
charm, make someone’s day.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s
pretty normal for life to grow, as
most things grow, quite uneven-
ly. Some parts will need to be
brought up to scale to work with
other parts. Soon you’ll have
everything running right.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
In this readymade world, the
custom item, designed to fit a
specific need and handmade to
extremely particular standards
is scarce indeed. Scarcity
creates value. Your love is a
custom fit and very valuable.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
You’re giving focus to something
you’d rather not. Intellectually,
this isn’t what you want, but
the habit is hard to break. It will
help to either rearrange your
physical environment or just go
somewhere else.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). You’ll have a strong sense
of how you can improve the situ-
ation. It’s safe for you to act on
that as long as you do so with
tact, diplomacy and a willing-
ness to share the credit.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). There will be many oppor-
tunities to practice the art of
interaction. Your aim is not only
for social smoothness but also
for an exchange that’s unlike
any other.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Your reputation will pre-
cede you, but this isn’t news to
you. You designed it that way.
You showed people what they
should know about you, and
you’ll continue to add richness
to this story.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). If the rules are the only
thing standing between you
and making the difference you
want to make in the world, you
have to consider whether those
are really the rules you need to
follow.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). If someone’s opinion of
you matters too much to you,
then you’ll start acting out of
insecurity instead of your own
creative will. Pull back. Get in-
volved in something else. Then
the dynamic will change.

Forever and a day

Business moves with Mary

The Golden Triangle

is loaded with loaded teas
PLUS: Rock Bottom wide creating a boom
throughout the nation.
Monday through Friday
from 8:30 a.m.-5 p.m.
Furniture hosts grand Taylor credits the
“nutrition boom” in the
Boardtown Groom-
ing, a pet grooming
opening area to the demand
from Golden Triangle
facility, closed its doors
after four years of

S
ince Starkville Nutrition
opened last September, loaded
teas have taken over the Gold-
en Triangle.
With two Columbus nutri-
tion-based businesses opening
in May, two more locations have
announced their openings in
Starkville and West Point.
39759 Nutrition, 450 Hwy. 12
W. Suite B., opened in late May,
becoming the second nutrition
facility to offer loaded teas and
shakes in Starkville. 39759 is open
Monday through Friday from 7
a.m.-4 p.m. and Saturdays from 9
a.m.-2 p.m.
West Point Nutrition, 26493
E. Main St., opened last month,
offering loaded teas and meal
replacement shakes Monday
through Thursday from 7 a.m.-4
p.m., Friday from 7 a.m.-3 p.m. and
Saturdays from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
Wendy Taylor, who opened
Starkville Nutrition last year with
her husband Heath, said each
nutrition store in the Golden
Triangle serves the same products
as Starkville Nutrition, but has
opened with its individual owners.
The new nutrition clubs in the area
are all branched from Herbalife,
a national nutrition and weight
loss distributor, which now boasts
nearly 6,000 nutrition stores nation-
residents.
“In the South, people
want to be healthy but
they don’t have the
options,” Taylor said.
“With these studios,
(the drinks are) low cal- Mary Pollitz
orie, low carb, low sug-
ar but it tastes good. I think there’s
just a real need for it especially in
the small towns of Mississippi. Peo-
ple are taking advantage of it.”
Opening Starkville Nutrition,
located on Russell Street, and
watching other business owners
take off has been exciting to watch,
Taylor added.
“They’re everywhere, Starkville,
Columbus and West Point,” Taylor
said. “The loaded tea, it’s loaded
with vitamins and anti-oxidants.
The meal replacement shake,
instead of going and eating a high
calorie meal, you can have a pro-
tein shake that’s low calorie, low
carb and low sugar. It’s actually re-
ally good for you. People love them
and they feel amazing on them. It’s
just a clean energy.”
Starkville has also added a new
insurance agent to the market.
Troy Allred Shelter Insurance,
501 Hwy. 12 W. Suite 150A., opened Monday through Saturday from
office last month, offering home,
life, renters and general liability in-
surance. Allred Insurance is open
business.
The company, 113 B
Martin Luther King Dr.
W., announced its last
day was Wednesday on
social media.
Over in Columbus,
Rock Bottom Furniture
has officially opened at its new
location.
Moving just next door to 201 U
Alabama St., Rock Bottom offers
low prices on furniture, mattresses
and more. Owner Chris Carter said
since opening in October, business
has been steadfast demanding the
need to move to a larger facility.
“We carry more appliances,
more beds, more of everything,”
Carter said. “It’s doing pretty well.
We opened the doors and we did
well. We moved here and it’s just
growing. We’re wide open now,
things are rolling real well. I’m
happy with it.”
Carter is hosting the company’s
grand opening all day Saturday
with barbecue and one-day only
discounts, including 10 percent off
purchases of more than $1,000.
Rock Bottom Furniture is open
9:30 a.m.-6:30 p.m.
