An 18-year-old is in custody
for a Monday night robbery in
Lowndes County.
Deputies arrested Allen
Torez Moon, of 2202 Shannon
Ave., on Tuesday, according to
a Lowndes County Sheriff’s Of-
fice press release. Moon is ac-
cused of stealing cash from the
B-Mart store on Highway 50
East after putting the cashier in
a choke hold.
Deputies responded to the
B-Mart store 9 p.m. Monday
where the cashier reported she
had been robbed. According to
a LCSO incident report, the ca-
shier was closing up the store
when Moon walked in, grabbed
her and demanded that she give
him money because his baby
had just died.
The victim told deputies she
began to grapple with the sus-

Retrial begins for man accused in woman’s burning death

‘Once you hear all the evidence the state
offers, you’re going to have plenty of
evidence to convict him of capital murder’
Panola County Assistant District Attorney Jay Hale
The Associated Press
BATESVILLE — Quinton
Tellis is the man on trial for
killing a Mississippi woman by
setting her on fire, but much of
the first day’s testimony focused
on emergency workers’ reports
that Jessica Chambers told them
an “Eric” had attacked her.
That testimony came Tues-
day after prosecutors tried to
plant doubts about what Cham-
bers really could say with se-
vere burns, calling a speech pa-
thologist to say the 19-year-old
Chambers would have lost her
ability to speak clearly within
minutes of being burned.
Tellis’ retrial on capital mur-
der charges began in Batesville
after jurors couldn’t reach a
verdict in a first trial last year.
In his opening statement, Pa-
nola County Assistant District
Attorney Jay Hale urged jurors
to look to the other evidence
besides what firefighters and
paramedics say they heard from
Chambers after they found her
staggering away from her burn-
ing car on a rural backroad in
December 2014 near Courtland.
She would die hours later in a
Memphis, Tennessee, hospital.
“Once you hear all the evi-
dence the state offers, you’re go-
ing to have plenty of evidence to
convict him of capital murder,”
Hale told jurors.
But the Eric
testimony was
the cornerstone
of Tellis’ defense
in the first trial
and defense attor-
ney Darla Palmer
told jurors to trust
it. Tellis
“This evidence
is always going to show, it’s al-
ways going to say Eric did it,
no matter what the state does
to diminish that, and we would
ask that you find Quinton not
guilty,” Palmer said.
The testimony of speech pa-
thologist Carolyn Wiles Higdon
was the first new wrinkle prose-
cutors introduced in the retrial.
Higdon said Chambers could
have made sounds, but wouldn’t
have been able to control them
or pronounce consonants with
a swollen tongue and charred
lips, testifying that it would have
been impossible for her to say
“Eric.”
“There is no way she could
have produced an articulate
sound soon after this inflamma-
tion started, this burn started,”
she testified.
But that was followed with
a parade of volunteer firefight-
ers and paramedics. Some say
they couldn’t understand what
Chambers was saying or didn’t
hear. But six testified they
heard her say Eric, identifying
words and short sentences even
though Chambers was speak-
ing in a quiet, abnormally low
voice they described as breathy
or raspy.
“It was hard, but what I
thought I heard was Eric,” said
Courtland firefighter Jody Mor-
ris. He said when Chambers
came shuffling out of the woods,
“it looked like Hollywood, like a
movie. She looked like a zom-
bie”
Panola County fire coordi-
nator Daniel Cole was among
the responders who concluded
Chambers was dying.
“I didn’t think we’d ever
speak to her again after we left
the scene,” Cole testified. “I
was trying to obtain as much
information as I could for law
enforcement.”
He described the word
Chambers struggled to get out
as sounding like “hair, hair,
hairic.”
In his opening statement,
Hale told jurors in that investi-
gators interviewed many people
named Eric or Derek but none
“were ever found to be viable
suspects in this crime.” Palmer,
though, said investigators “did
not check every viable lead.”
Hale said investigators were
at a dead end when they re-ex-
amined Tellis, who had been an
early suspect. Hale said investi-
gators focused on Tellis after he
changed his story and admitted
he had been with Chambers lat-
er on the Saturday of her death.

The Associated Press
TUPELO — A federal
appeals court says it will
not revive a civil lawsuit
over a fatal shooting by a
Mississippi police officer.
The Northeast Missis-
sippi Daily Journal reports
the 5th U.S. Circuit Court
of Appeals on Monday
rejected a request by the
nie” Shumpert.
He fled from a traffic
stop in 2016 and was shot
to death by a Tupelo po-
lice officer. In November
2017, U.S. District Judge
Sharion Aycock dismissed
a Shumpert family lawsuit
against Tupelo police of-
ficer Tyler Cook and the
city.
The suit said Cook was
inadequately trained and
did not follow policies,
leading to violations of
Shumpert’s constitutional
rights.
Aycock dismissed the
case without a trial, writ-
ing that no meaningful
facts were in dispute and
the defendants could not
be held liable for damages.
JACKSON — President Donald Trump will
hold a rally next week in northern Mississippi,
urging voters to support an appointed Republican
senator who is on the ballot in November.
The Trump campaign says Tuesday that the
“Make America Great Again” rally is scheduled
Oct. 2 in Southaven, a heavily Republican suburb
just south of Memphis, Tennessee.
He will campaign for Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith,
weeks after endorsing her on Twitter.
Trump was supposed to have a rally with Hyde-
Smith on Sept. 14 in Jackson. It was canceled as
Hurricane Florence approached the East Coast.
Hyde-Smith says in a statement that “it has
been a privilege to back his ‘America First’ agen-
da.”

Men plead guilty to harboring illegal workers at restaurant
Men face up to 10 years in prison
The Associated Press
JACKSON — Two
Mississippi residents and
their company are plead-
ing guilty to harboring
illegal workers at a restau-
rant.
Entering pleas Tues-
day to illegally harboring
immigrants were 61-year-
old Guo Guang Lin,
35-year-old Cheng Lin
and their company, Lin’s

U.S. District Court Se-
nior Judge David Bram-
lette is scheduled to sen-
tence the Lins on Jan. 8.
U.S. Attorney Mike Hurst
said each man faces up to
10 years in prison.
The Lins and the com-
pany will forfeit $731,000
and the company will pay
a $200,000 fine. Prosecu-
tors have said the Lins
are permanent legal resi-
dents.
Codefendant Yan Fei
Tang, accused of entering
the country illegally from
China, has said she will
plead guilty later.
Prosecutors said

Ole Miss seeks fast removal of donor’s name after flap

The Associated Press
OXFORD — The Uni-
versity of Mississippi is
trying to speed up the
process of removing a do-
nor’s name from its jour-
nalism school after his
Facebook post that drew
backlash as being racist.
Ed Meek last week
requested his name be
removed from the Meek
School of Journalism and
New Media. He did so
days after posting photos
of two black women in
short dresses and sug-
gesting that they exem-
plify problems that could
cause declining property
values.
The women were Ole
Miss students who said
they dressed up after a
football game. Both said
his post was offensive.
Ole Miss Chancellor
Jeffrey Vitter says Tues-
day that campus councils
will ask the state College
Board to remove Meek’s
name from the journalism
school, where Meek and
his wife donated $5.3 mil-
lion in 2009.

Our view

The power of a story

The Columbus Arts Council presents its
annual Possum Town Storytelling Festival this
weekend and every year, the timing seems
perfect.
We live in an age where our communications
have become almost a form of short-hand and
our interactions impersonal and detached. We
have never been more connected to the broad-
er world, yet so many of our relationships are
superficial. We may have hundreds of friends
on social media that we don’t know and aren’t
really sure how we met them. We spend a lot of
time exchanging information but rarely seem to
connect on a meaningful level.
If there is one sure antidote for all that, it may
well come from storytelling.
We are a nation of storytellers and Missis-
sippi has an especially impressive tradition,
having produced some of the great storytellers
in literary history.
The names roll of our tongues easily - William
Faulkner, Eudora Welty and Tennessee Williams

Is it anger? But not all kill-
ings are connected to anger.
There are so called cold-blood-

What benefits does the
killer get? There is no immor-

anyway. There’s no need for a
killer to kill someone early!
Lord Buddha spent most
of his life in spirit control
through meditation. Only the
spirit can travel as light runs
and in death the spirit flies
out from the body. According
to Buddhism and Hinduism,
that spirit enters into someone
else and comes back to earth,
which is called reincarnation.
Lord Buddha said, “All that
we are is the result of what we
have thought. If a man speaks
or acts with an evil thought,
pain follows him. If a man
speaks or acts with a pure
thought, happiness follows
him, like a shadow that never
leaves him.”

GOP lines up Kavanaugh vote plan

and LISA MASCARO

WA S H I N G T O N
— President Donald
Trump denounced
Democratic efforts to
block Brett Kavana-
ugh’s Supreme Court
confirmation as a cyn-
ical “con job” on Tues- Kavanaugh
day and launched a
dismissive attack on
a second woman accusing the nom-
inee of sexual misconduct in the
1980s, asserting she “has nothing.”
Senate Majority Leader Mitch
McConnell predicted that Kavana-
ugh would win approval, despite
the new allegations and uncertain-
ty about how pivotal Republicans
would vote in a roll call now ex-
pected early next week. Like much
of America, lawmakers awaited a
momentous Senate Judiciary Com-
mittee hearing in which Kavana-
ugh and chief accuser Christine
Blasey Ford are to testify Thursday,
though not together.
Committee Chairman Chuck
Grassley said Arizona prosecutor
Rachel Mitchell will be brought in
to handle questioning of Kavana-
ugh and Ford. Mitchell comes from
the Maricopa County Attorney’s
Office in Phoenix, where she is the
chief of the Special Victims Divi-

Dems trying to smear Kavanaugh
The Associated Press
JACKSON — Mississippi’s
two Republican U.S. senators are
expressing continued support of
Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination to
the Supreme Court.
Roger Wicker and Cindy Hyde-
Smith issued statements Monday
saying they think Democrats are
unfairly trying to damage the rep-
utation of Kavanaugh, who is a
federal appeals court judge.
The Senate Judiciary Commit-
tee is scheduled to hear Thursday
from Kavanaugh and a woman
who says he sexually assaulted
her when they were teenagers
in the 1980s. Kavanaugh denies
wrongdoing.
court more firmly to the right for
a generation. Despite McConnell’s
forecast that Republicans will “win,”
Kavanaugh’s fate remains uncer-
tain in a chamber where Republi-
cans have a scant 51-49 majority.
“I will be glued to the television,”
said Sen. Susan Collins, a moderate
Republican from Maine, who has
yet to declare her position on con-
firmation.
Hoping the hearing will yield no
new surprises, the Senate Judicia-
ry Committee scheduled its own
vote on Kavanaugh for Friday, and
Republican leaders laid plans that
could keep the full Senate in ses-
sion over the weekend and produce
a final showdown roll call soon af-
ter — close to the Oct. 1 start of the
high court’s new term.
Given that the Judiciary Commit-
tee’s GOP members are all male,
McConnell said the panel was hir-
ing a “female assistant” to handle
the questioning for Republicans “in
a respectful and professional way.”
Grassley, R-Iowa, identified Mitch-

day, describing her as “a career

ence prosecuting sex crimes.”
“My gut is they’re trying to avoid
a panel of all white guys asking
tone-deaf questions,” said Demo-
cratic Sen. Chris Coons of Dela-
ware.
Each senator on the 21-member
panel will be allowed five minutes
to ask questions, said committee
spokesman Taylor Foy. That’s a
tight rein for such a major hearing.
Meanwhile, the Republicans
were still assessing what Kava-
naugh’s Monday interview on the
Fox News Channel — an unusual
appearance for a Supreme Court
nominee — indicates about how he
would do in Thursday’s hearing.
During the interview, Kavana-
ugh denied sexually assaulting any-
one. He also denied the account of a
second woman, Deborah Ramirez,
who told The New Yorker magazine
that Kavanaugh caused her to touch
his penis at a party when both were
Yale freshmen.
Some in the White House ex-
pressed relief that Kavanaugh, 53,
presented a positive image to count-
er the allegations. Yet he appeared
shaky at times.

Pope: Priestly abuse scandals

driving Catholic faithful away
‘They are outraged by sexual and
economic scandals that do not meet
with clear condemnation ...’
By NICOLE WINFIELD
and JARI TANNER
The Associated Press
TALLINN, Estonia
— Pope Francis conced-
ed Tuesday that priestly
sex abuse scandals are
outraging the Catholic
faithful and driving them
away, and said the church
must change its ways if it
wants to keep future gen-
erations.
Francis referred di-
rectly to the crisis con-
vulsing his papacy on the
fourth and final day of his
Baltic pilgrimage, which
coincided with the release
of a devastating new re-
port into decades of sex
abuse and cover-ups in
Germany.
Francis told young peo-
ple in Estonia, considered
one of the least religious
countries in the world,
that he knew many felt
the church had nothing
to offer them and simply
doesn’t understand the
problems of young adults
today.
“They are outraged
by sexual and economic
scandals that do not meet
with clear condemnation,
by our unpreparedness
to really appreciate the
lives and sensibilities of
the young, and simply by
the passive role we assign
them,” he told Catholic,
Lutheran and Orthodox
young people in the Kaar-
li Lutheran Church in the
Estonian capital of Tal-
linn.
The pope said the
Catholic Church wants
to respond to those com-
plaints transparently and
honestly.
“We ourselves need to
be converted,” he said.
“We have to realize that,
in order to stand by your
side, we need to change
many situations that, in
the end, put you off.”
It was a very public
admission of the impact
of the church’s failures
in confronting sex abuse
scandals, which have
roared back to the head-
lines recently with reve-
lations of abuses and cov-
er-ups in the U.S., Chilean
and now German church-
es.
On Tuesday, the Ger-
man bishops conference
released a report which
found that some 3,677
people — more than half
of them 13 or younger and
nearly a third of them al-
tar boys — were abused
by clergy between 1946
and 2014.

Florence flooding slowly envelops homes

The Associated Press
GEORGETOWN, S.C.
— A week ago, firefight-
ers in Conway went to a
neighborhood and told
surprised residents their
houses would flood from
Hurricane Florence even
though they had never had
water in them before.
On Monday and Tues-
day, those same firefight-
ers checked on those
same neighborhoods with
maps that detailed each
of the nearly 1,000 homes
that could expect to be in-
undated.
“It’s kind of playing out
exactly like we forecast,”
Conway Fire Chief Le
Hendrick said.
Twelve days after the
once-fierce hurricane ar-
rived on the coast, and
more than a week after it
blew north and dissipated,
rivers swollen by its relent-
less rains are still flooding
homes and businesses in
their paths as they make
their way to the sea.
The slow-moving di-
saster has allowed fore-
casters to pinpoint exactly
who will flood. There have
been few rescues or sur-
prises in South Carolina —
just black, reeking water
slowly seeping in and even
more slowly receding.
“You find yourself
sitting around a lot and
thinking, ‘What if,’ or, ‘I
wonder what things are
like right now,’” said Vivi-
an Chestnut, who left her
home in Conway a week
ago and might not get back
until well into October.
“And wondering what you
are going to find when you
finally get back.”
The Waccamaw River,
which flows through the
city of 23,000, was expect-
ed to crest on Wednesday
at 21.7 feet. It surpassed
the previous record high
of 17.9 feet set in 2016 by
Hurricane Matthew on
Friday.

Border Patrol’s first female chief

hopes to inspire women
‘If you’re a woman in law enforcement, I don’t care
where you’re at, you’re a minority’
U.S. Border Patrol Chief Carla Provost
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — U.S. Border
Patrol Chief Carla Provost says she
hopes she can inspire other women
to sign up with the agency, which
has just one female agent for every
20 men.
“If you’re a woman in law enforce-
ment, I don’t care where you’re at,
you’re a minority,” Provost told The
Associated Press in an interview.
Provost, who joined the agency in
1995 and became its acting chief in
April 2017, took over last month as
the first female chief in its 94-year
history.
The Border Patrol and its 19,000
agents have been under a constant
spotlight. Curbing immigration re-
mains at the top of President Donald
Trump’s priorities, and the admin-
istration plans to add 5,000 Border
Patrol agents.
The agency has come under fire
for its checkpoints within 100 miles
of the border. And it faced withering
criticism for its role in the adminis-
tration’s zero-tolerance policy this
spring that resulted in the separa-
tion of nearly 3,000 migrant children
from their parents. It’s the subject of
federal litigation on holding facilities
where migrants complain of freez-
ing temperatures, inedible food and
overcrowding.
Earlier this month, a supervisor
in Laredo, Texas, was arrested on
allegations he killed four women.
Provost placed him on unpaid sus-
pension and said she was “sickened
and saddened” by the alleged acts of
a “rogue individual.”
“I would hate for this to tarnish
the great work that those men and
women do,” she said at a news confer-
ence aside Texas law enforcement.

murmur through the au-

we talk about the vote,
there were some people

Hosemann noted that

National Guard members

He said the sacrifices

dents’ rights, including
the right to vote.
“Those 3,200 Missis-
sippians are in harm’s
way,” Hosemann said.
“That’s a nice way of
saying you’re living in a
sand dune and somebody
doesn’t want you there
and may try to kill you.
That means we have an
obligation.
“Go vote and when they
come home next June and
you see one of the walk-
ing down the street you
can go up to them and say
‘I voted,’” he added. “Your
vote matters, and the fact
that we have men and

make you want to vote

Kickoff for EMCC’s final

is set for 6:30 p.m. Thursday at

EMCC has won nine straight
games against the South Divi-
sion. East Central is one of the
state’s biggest surprises. After
finishing 1-8 a year ago, the
Warriors are escaping with four
games decided by a touchdown
or less.
“This team has a lot more
growing to do,” Brownlee said.
“On offense, we are just begin-
ning to scratch the surface.
When you play new guys, you
have to see where all the pieces
fit together. This team is hun-
gry. For me personally, never
been on a team with this many
talented players. Each day is
fun. It’s a new challenge each
week, and we attack it head-on.”
EMCC has scored 50 or
more points in four straight
games for the first time since
2014. The average margin of
victory is 42.5 points per game.
Still, the Lions are looking

STARKVILLE — Rhylee De-
Crane sees an all-around improve-
ment when she assesses her per-
formance through 10 games.
The Mississippi State goal-
keeper feels she is doing a good
job stopping shots and communi-
cating with her defense. She also
believes she has improved her
ability to control the goalkeeper’s
box and to win crosses.
A few years ago,

never would have
imagined she still
would be playing
soccer. In fact,
after not playing
nearly at all in the

said she “already

“I practiced, but it wasn’t like
my biggest thing,” DeCrane said.
“I was just kind of out there to
burn some calories, but when

came in, there was actual change
to do something and to help my

Injuruy-plagued Tigers look to right ship in final non-region game

By Adam Minichino
aminichino@cdispatch.com
MACON — Tyrone Shorter
has been in this situation.
Maybe that’s why the Nox-
ubee County High School foot-
ball coach isn’t panicking even
though his team is 2-4.
In 2015, the Tigers also lost
four of their first six games be-
fore they ended the season on a
10-game winning streak and as
the Mississippi High School Ac-
tivities Association (MHSAA)
Class 4A State champions.
Noxubee County followed a
similar road last season, going
2-4 to open the campaign and
rebounding to win the final
nine games, including a victo-
ry against East Central in the
Class 4A championship game.
This year, though, the inju-
ries have nagged a little longer.
Senior athlete Kyziah Pruitt
has played in only one game —
against Starkville in the season
opener — and the Tigers have
had more than their share of
missed games.
Shorter hopes Noxubee

County can continue to inch
closer back to 100 percent
health this week as it prepares
to take on Glenwood School

Birmingham, Alabama.
If Shorter knew then what
he knows now he likely would
have taken the bye week to help
Noxubee County take the time
to prepare for its Region 4 open-
er next week at Louisville. But
Shorter and the Tigers never
have backed down from chal-
lenges, so don’t think they are
going to do that now as they try
to find their footing after anoth-
er slow start.
“Our kids have been here
before,” Shorter said. We’re in
the same situation we were in
last year at this time. Our kids
are in good spirits. They were
saying the same thing after
the game Friday like, ‘We have
been here before.’ When the
kids are talking like that you
don’t have to remind them, but
it’s tough. It’s tough on our kids
and on our coaches because los-
ing is something we don’t really

EMCC
Continued from Page 1B
EMCC has not had a consistent
knockout-blow this season. The
Lions have also been hurt by pen-
alties. The point totals have been
skewed by special teams and defen-
sive scores.
“We have two capable quarter-
backs, really great running backs
and the offensive line is playing
well,” Brownlee said. “Anytime,
we don’t score in a couple of min-
utes, there is cause for concern.
The main thing is consistency. It
doesn’t matter who is on the field,
the coaches expect us to execute.”
Michigan State transfer Messi-
ah deWeaver started the first two
games at quarterback. He has since
given way to former Itawamba AHS
standout Vijay Miller.
In last week’s 54-13 win over
Mississippi Delta Community Col-
lege, both quarterbacks were 12 of
17, with Miller accounting for all
three passing touchdowns.
One touchdown covered 10
yards and went to Brownlee, it was
his first junior college score. For
the season, Brownlee has seven re-
ceptions for 63 yards.
“Jason has worked so hard since
his first day here,” EMCC offensive
coordinator David Boykin said.
“His size (6-foot-3, 185-pounds)
makes him a good target. He has
good speed and great hands. One of
those who can make the jump ball
catches look routine. You can tell
when a freshman gets comfortable
and he reached that stage early.”
Overall, Miller and deWeaver
have divided 106 pass completions
to 15 different receivers. The Lions
are averaging 336 yards per game
through the air with 12 touch-
downs.
“Our biggest games are still
ahead,” Brownlee said. “The goal is
to be 1-0 each week. We have to get
better each week and keep adding
to those 1-0 weeks.”

Coaches (USC) poll re-
leased Tuesday, will play
host to Florida (4-6-1,
2-1 Southeastern Confer-
ence) at the MSU Soccer
Field. The match will be
broadcast on SEC Net-
work+.
DeCrane has helped
MSU (8-2, 1-2) to one of
its best starts in program
history. She posted six
shutouts in non-confer-
ence action and has been
solid in SEC matches
against then-No. 9 Au-
burn, then-No. 13 South
Carolina, and then-No. 19
Tennessee. The only goal
she allowed against South
Carolina was a penalty
kick. Against Tennessee,
DeCrane stopped a PK
and took the ball off the
feet of a player to pre-
vent another dangerous
chance.
“She was fantastic,”
Anagnost said. “She was
the best player on our
team. They generated
chances, and to be hon-
est, they could’ve scored
more than a goal.”
DeCrane, a redshirt se-
nior from Myrtle Beach,
South Carolina, made all
four of her saves against
Tennessee in the second
half. For the season, she
has 27 saves and has al-
lowed only six goals.
The action is De-
Crane’s most since her
freshman season, when
she played in 16 games
(12 starts). She appeared
in two games as a sopho-
more and didn’t play as a
junior. She redshirted her
senior year behind Cata-
lina Perez, who became
the first Bulldog to earn
All-America honors (USC
third-team honors). Perez
made 68 saves and had
six shutouts. She allowed
only 19 goals and was
a primary reason MSU
went 9-5-4 and was on the
cusp of making the pro-
gram’s first appearance in
the NCAA tournament.
DeCrane said she
wanted to come back for
her fifth year to help push
MSU back to the SEC
tournament for the first
time since 2004 and to
help it make history and
advance to the NCAAs.
So far, things are work-
ing out. With a Ratings
Percentage Index (RPI)
of No. 3, MSU has worked
into the national conver-
sation. On Monday, MSU
earned its first national
ranking when it came in
at No. 19 in the TopDraw-
erSoccer poll.
DeCrane said this
year’s team is so different
from other MSU teams
she has worked with be-
cause it is working togeth-
er “like a good machine.”
DeCrane referred to her-
self as a “cog in the ma-
chine” that is helping to
propel MSU to its goals.
“It definitely was a
want to (come back for
her fifth year,” DeCrane
said. “I didn’t have to
push myself. It would
have been easy to say,
‘Ah, we’re done,’ but I
realized I wanted to see
what could happen if we
made it to the NCAA tour-
nament and being with a
ranked team. I wanted to
bring this program a step
higher and see how much
we could accomplish.
“If you had talked to
me two years ago, I would
never talk about soccer
outside of practice. It was
something I did to pay
for my schooling and that
was it. It was just one of
those jobs. That changed.
It started with Cat(alina
Perez) because I saw peo-
ple still loved the sport
and why they loved the
sport. “Slowly it started to
filter back in. … I realized
I could be an anchor to
my team or I could be one
of the balloons that lifts
them up to a new area. I
want to be that balloon. I
want to be that reason to
get the team somewhere.”

Williams
Continued from Page 1B
The part of Genesis 1:26 that
Williams is inspired by reads, “And
God said, Let us make man in our
image, after our likeness.”
“It’s my favorite verse,” Williams
said. “I’ve been loving that verse, I
just did it my senior year.”
The importance of Williams’
faith was not lost on running backs
coach/run game coordinator
Charles Huff, who has his own ex-
perience in combining religion with
college football. In his playing days
at Hampton University, Huff was a
fixture at Fellowship of Christian
Athletes events and a part of the
team’s choir.
Huff said he never had a lengthy
chat with Williams about religion
when he came to MSU, but he could
tell by how passionately he talked
about it that it was important to him.
It was also easy to assume as much
when he saw Williams carrying the
Bible through the football complex
on occasion and quoting the Bible
when coaches ask for players to
recite a quote that’s important to
them.
“It’s a constant reminder to him
that it’s not just about him, it’s not
just about what he does, it’s a bless-
ing that he has, a gift that he’s been
given that he’s able to maximize ev-
ery day,” Huff said.
The number has that meaning
for Williams, but for Huff and head
coach Joe Moorhead, seeing it on a
running back was quite the deja vu
trip.
Their Penn State feature back,
Saquon Barkley, wore the number
for their two seasons together at
Happy Valley, running for a total
of 2,767 yards and 36 touchdowns.
Moorhead warned Huff about Wil-
liams’ number change, but Huff
must not have registered it: it was a
little jarring for him to see another
back wearing 26.
“Saquon’s a good player, but
you’re going to need more than his
number to make some things like
him happen,” Huff joked.
Even if not doing so in the way
Barkley did, Williams is making his
impact wearing No. 26, having now
clearly made himself one of the top
two running backs alongside Kylin
Hill.
“He’s as physical a football player
as I’ve ever been around,” offensive
coordinator Luke Getsy said. “He’s
an attacking young man and when
he touches that turf, he can turn on
it. He practices hard, he practices
the right way, he has a high football
IQ. I’m looking forward to seeing
him, I really am. He’s a violent guy
and he plays that way.”

Dear Abby
D
EAR ABBY:
I found out
a month
ago that my wife
and my best
friend had a
relationship 40
years ago when
we were in our
20s. My friend
hinted about it,
so I asked him
ZITS point blank and
he confessed.
Obviously, if
you can’t trust
someone, he’s
not your friend.
Dear Abby
My question is,
should I ask my wife to tell me
what went on or just sweep
it under the rug and move
forward?
Not a day goes by that I
don’t wonder what happened
to make her stray, or how
long the affair went on under
GARFIELD my nose. I tried talking to her
about it right after I found out,
but she started crying, which
is one of my weaknesses. I
don’t like making folks upset,
so I took the blame because I
wasn’t a very good husband.
We married very young, and
I wasn’t ready. So, what do I
do? — HURT AND ANGRY
DEAR H AND A: I would
love to know your “friend’s”
motivation for hinting so
broadly that he’d had an affair
with your wife that you’d ask

you were angels.

DEAR ABBY:
I’m 30, married
and the only
female analyst in
an office with 12 men. I love
my job and I enjoy working
here, but it is very hard to
prove yourself as a woman in
a male-dominated industry.
There is one other woman
in my office, a recently di-
vorced administrator I barely
know. She’s very open about
her online dating and sex life,
and I am at a loss. I feel it’s
extremely inappropriate for
her to share detailed informa-
tion with me in the workplace.
I’m also afraid the guys will
hear her and take me less
seriously as a professional
and equal.
I have tried politely chang-
ing the subject, ignoring her
or avoiding her, but nothing
seems to work. I don’t want
to embarrass her by telling
vanquish the impulse as if by
magic.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
While everyone loves a happy
ending, the same happy endings
won’t work for all people. No
need to settle for the generic
version of the story. Work
toward your own very specific
good result until you have it.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
It will be a full day of talking to
people, and you definitely have
the energy for the back-to-back
interactions. In fact, you’ll be
a wonderful influence on those
lucky enough to be around you.
CANCER (June 22-July
22). Authenticity is a buzzword
that gets a lot of play in your
world lately. Funnily enough,
her flat out to not discuss her
sex life with me, but I’m not
sure what else I can do. What
would you suggest? — COV-
ERING MY EARS
DEAR COVERING: What
the woman is doing can be
considered sexual harass-
ment, and in most sizable
businesses — yours appears
to be one — there are policies
in place to protect employ-
ees. I suggest you tell her
that hearing about her sexual
escapades makes you uncom-
fortable and to please stop.
And if she doesn’t, discuss it
with either human resources
or your employer.
DEAR ABBY: My gentleman
friend and I are senior citizens
who live together. We have ac-
quired a dog and cat. I pay for
the cat’s food, vaccinations
and litter. He pays for the
dog’s food and vaccinations.
Last week my boyfriend ac-
cidentally slammed the door
on the cat’s tail. Part of it had
to be amputated, and the bill
for surgery, drugs, cone, etc.
came close to $400. Neither
of us is hurting financially.
Who do you think should foot
this bill? — MOTHER OF FUR

DEAR MOTHER: That poor
kitty! I not only think your
“gentleman” friend should
foot the bill, I think he should
have VOLUNTEERED to do it. If
he didn’t, shame on him.
the people who bring it up most
today may be the furthest away
from the basic truth. It’s just
something to notice.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Confident people aren’t thinking
of themselves. They’re playing
the moment. If you’re thinking
of how you’re doing, it’s a sign
that you’re not yet confident, but
don’t worry, keep going. You’ll
learn on the job.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22). It’s not your job to have
all the answers, and neither is
that your goal. The goal is to
motivate the team want to find
the answers, just as you do. It
will be very important that you
all get there together.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
There’s no one you need to be
beyond who you are naturally.
You may choose to grow and to
define and re-define yourself as
you go, but don’t put conditions
on loving yourself. Be you and
love that person.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). You’ll be in a position to
appoint, cast or hire someone.
To assess how a person would
do in the role, check out how
they’ve done in their current
role. The evidence won’t lie.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You’ve weathered scarcity
and abundance. Both have their
unique challenges. It’s because
you’ve figured out what it takes
to get through all sorts of
circumstances that you’ll step
forward in confidence today.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). It’s a day to think about
what you are doing to pro-
tect yourself from the world.
Consider whether some of that
could actually be holding you
back from all the happiness you
could be experiencing.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Advice from the top will
help you only if that person
started at the bottom and
worked all the way up to the
head position. What’s required
now is the nuanced perspective
of a truly experienced individual.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). You don’t always know
when you’re creating change,
causing people to think differ-
ently or teaching them valuable
skills... but you can assume
that’s what’s going on with
today’s interactions.

It’s one of a small number of roast-their-own facili-
ties in northeast Mississippi. Symonds and Andrews
start with green coffee beans from countries such as
Colombia, Guatemala and Ethiopia. As the beans go
into Southbound Coffee’s Diedrich 5-kilo roasting
machine, variables including heat and air flow are
controlled by Symonds or Andrews in accordance to
specific profiles that bring out natural flavors. It’s a
merging of nature, science, math and, ultimately, taste.

Coffee
Continued from Page 5B
“If the coffee bean has
a more berry, floral natu-
ral flavor to it, we can use
the roaster to bring out
those flavors with maybe
a lighter roast,” said
Andrews. “If it has more
of a chocolaty flavor, a
medium to darker roast
can bring it out.”
A head for math comes
in handy when inputting
data for the roasting
process.
“Some people cringe
from math, but I was a
calculus major in college;
I enjoy it,” Symonds
grinned. “I love this job.”
Their resulting high-
grade specialty coffees
are used not only at
Beans & Cream but also
Coffeehouse on 5th in
downtown Columbus and
Coffeehouse on 5th at Co-
lumbus Air Force Base.
They’re also available by
the bag to consumers.
Symonds and Andrews
accept special orders for
custom roasts, too.
Coffee drinkers, as
a whole, have become
increasingly savvy about
the beverage, said Carol
Pearson, manager at
Coffeehouse on 5th.
“I think there’s greater
education about coffee
and a lot more focus on
it,” she said. Coffee buffs
experimenting with
flavors from different
origins and of varying
blends develop a coffee
palate.
Andrews said, “As
they come to realize how
much thought and com-
plexity can go into each
cup — from the farmer
to the roast to the barista
— and how much flavor is
really there, they tend to
really enjoy the experi-
ence; it makes the coffee
that much better.”
Origins, nuances
Coffee is actually the
seed of a fruit referred to
as a cherry. Some grow
on small bushes, some
grow on tall trees. There
are thousands of different
species, Andrews pointed
out. Beans that came
from the same farmer,
same field, same hill may
represent several dif-
ferent species, and new
species are evolving all
the time.
“This is a cherry
seed, so there’s lots of
fruit flavors in there,” he
remarked. Which is one
might see a particular
coffee billed as having
“lemon, tangerine and
grapefruit” flavor notes.
“If you close your
eyes and let it sit on your
tongue, you’ll feel the
flavors come alive. It can
be a lot of fun,” he said.
In general, single-or-
igin coffee is grown
within a single known
geographic origin. That
can mean a single farm,
or a specific collection
of beans from a single
country. Blends are
mixtures of two or more
coffees. One of the most
popular blends produced
by Southbound Coffee is
Sunshine Daydream.
“Some of the beans
have a flavor kind of like
caramel and toffee, and
one of the coffees is a
very floral, berry flavor,
and another has a choc-
olaty flavor, and when
you mix it all together,
it has the natural flavor
with very small hints of
like blueberry muffin and
coconut,” Andrews said.
Helping the public
appreciate the nuances
is a goal of people like
Symonds, Andrews and
Pearson, who said she’s
witnessed a shift in
consumption habits in
the more than two years
she’s been at Coffee-
house on 5th.
