Local high school seniors earn scholarships

for Rural Medical and Science program
Caledonia student to shadow nurses;
Columbus student looking at neuroscience
BY MARY POLLITZ
mpollitz@cdispatch.com
Breanna Wells, 17, can’t re-
member a moment she didn’t
want to become a nurse.
The rising Caledonia High
School senior will continue
pursuing her dream career this
summer with the Mississippi
State University Extension Ser-
vice Rural Medical and Science
Scholar program.
“I’ve known since I was lit-
tle that I wanted to be a labor
and delivery nurse,” Wells said.
“That’s what my mom did. She
used to take me with her to
work when she could and I used
to hang out in the NICU when
she was charting and stuff so
I’ve kind of always known.”
The RMS program lasts June
2-28, offering rising seniors two
college credits throughout the
intensive hands-on curriculum.
Like-minded students from all
over Mississippi will study and
work together, tour the medical
facility at University of Missis-
sippi Medical Center in Jackson
and shadow physicians, den-
tists and other health care pro-
fessionals.
RMS Director Ann Sansing
said the program started in
1998 and added a science el-
ement for this summer. With
401 total scholars who have
participated, more than 70 per-
cent of those students pursue
health-related careers and 46
scholars have attended medical
school.
“It’s a program for Mississip-
pi, its citizens and the communi-
ty,” Sansing said. “The program
aims to ensure a strong and pas-
sionate workforce for the long-
term goals of improving Missis-
sippi’s economy and increasing
access to health care.”

State of the nation

A declining
population need
not cause angst
Total births in the
United States fell last year
to about 3.79 million, the
smallest number in 32
years. The fertility rate hit
a record low of 59 child-
births per 1,000 women.
Americans are not having
enough children to replace
themselves.
This supposedly is
bad news. Headlines are
crying about a “Shortage Froma Harrop
of Americans” and “Demo-
graphic Decline.”
I don’t know. There seem to be plenty of Amer-
icans to go around. If population growth were the
mark of national greatness, Oman, Equatorial
Guinea and Angola would be the stars.
Of course, a sharply falling population would be
cause for concern, but that’s not the situation here.
The United States has been below the replacement
level of 2.1 births per woman for decades. The total
continues to grow because of immigration.
Fewer workers, we are told, can be problematic
for an aging society. An expanding elderly popu-
lation needs more taxpayers to support its health
care and, in many cases, more caregivers to make
meals. This is true, but these demographics were
totally predictable. It’s odd to see handwringing
over the need for more tax revenues shortly after
our leadership pushed through deep tax cuts that
will drain the Treasury of said revenues.
As for who will fill caregiving jobs, the answer
may be those whose previous work was taken over
by robots. And if caregiving pays too low to attract
workers, the answer is to pay more.
Meanwhile, there are nuggets of very good
news embedded in the U.S. population numbers.
The birthrate among teens and unmarried women
has plummeted. More women are having children
when they’re older and, presumably, better able
to support them. Also interesting, women with
college degrees are having more children.
And thank you, Affordable Care Act, for making
birth control, especially the long-acting kind, more
available to women. That, not abortion, is behind
the drop in unwanted pregnancies. Abortions are
now at their lowest number and rate since around
1973, when the U.S. Supreme Court upheld Roe v.
Wade.
Some causes of falling births were expected.
The birthrate among Hispanic women — once
high relative to the rest of the population — is now
more in line with that of other groups.
Fewer Americans would be a welcome relief for
those living in our highly congested urban corri-
dors. One can argue that America’s big, open spac-
es provide room galore for a far bigger population,
but somehow natives and the foreign-born alike
choose to shoehorn into densely populated areas.
Sadly, the habit of associating a dipping head-
count with decline still plagues city leaders unable
to deal with the numbers they already have. New
York Mayor Bill De Blasio was so upset by the
census report showing that his city’s population
shrunk by 40,000 — a mere drop in a sea of 8.4
million souls — that he questioned its methodolo-
gy. At rush hour, some of the subway trains get so
overcrowded the doors won’t close because passen-
gers can’t get their hands and legs inside. And we
can light a candle for the drivers consigned to the
flames of perpetual gridlock.
Some take falling birthrates as a sign of lost
confidence in the future. But those fretting about
the millennials’ lack of enthusiasm for reproduc-
ing might investigate deeper. They might start
addressing the onerous burden of student debt.
Babies are expensive.
They might look into today’s crazy work sched-
ules and, for those without college degrees or
specialized skills, low pay. There was a time when
parents could come home at 5:30 in the afternoon.
What makes for a strong society is healthy
people, prosperous people and happy people — not
more people. Americans can put low birthrates at
the bottom of their worry list.

If the Conservatives

if necessary, crash out

The Tories cannot
defy the will of their

50 years — a nationalist demand

survive as Britain’s first party.
Whoever wins the Tory compe-

Nor is that such a tragedy.
The first Brexit, after all, was

Yet even larger lessons emerge
from these two elections.
Liberalism appears to be
losing its appeal. A majority in the
world’s largest democracy, India,
consciously used their democratic
right to vote — to advance sectari-

Why is liberalism fading away,
and nationalism ascendant?
The former is an idea that
rooted in love of family, faith, tribe
and nation, is of the heart. In its
potency to motivate men, liber-
alism is to nationalism what near
beer is to Bombay gin.
To be a proud Pole, Hungarian,
Italian or Scotsman has a greater
grip on men’s love, loyalty and
allegiance than to be a citizen of
Europe.
“Whoever speaks of Europe is
wrong,” said Bismarck. Europe is
but “a geographical expression.”
Identity politics, people identi-
fying themselves by their ethnic-
ity, nationality, race, culture and
faith, appears to be the world’s
future.
Even leftists are bowing to the
new reality.
“Identity politics is exactly
who we are and it’s exactly how
we won,” says Stacy Abrams, the
African American Democrat who
almost won the Georgia governor’s
race. “By centering communities
in Georgia, we... increased voter
participation, we brought new
folks to the process.”
The Democratic Party is now
a coalition easily identifiable
by race, ethnicity, ideology and
gender — African American,
Hispanic, Asian, LGBTQ, feminist
and Green.
Our Founding Fathers believed
we Americans were a new people,
a separate, unique, identifiable
people, a band of brothers, who
had risked their lives and shed
their blood. Liberals believe we
are held together by abstract ideas
and ideals, such as democracy,
equality and diversity.
But did Washington, Jefferson,
Madison, Monroe, Calhoun, Clay,
Jackson, Sam Houston, Tyler and
Polk really believe in equality and
diversity as they drove Indians,
French, British, Spanish and Mex-
icans out of this land to create a
continentwide nation of their own?
Or was Manifest Destiny really

What do you Want?
I was talking to a friend the
other day and a question came up:
“What do you want?” He answered
the question with out batting an
eye. He said, “I want to make a
difference.” I asked him what he
meant. The reply was, when he
graduated from college with a
law degree, he could have gone
many other places, but he choose
Columbus. “Why,” I asked? “Why
not,” was the reply. This gave me
something to think about. If we do
not want to make a difference, to
try to change things for the better,
to help each other, then we are in a
sorry state of affairs. To settle for
things as they are will not improve
anything or anybody. But to make
a difference will help everyone,
including those that don’t care. I
want Columbus to be a great city
again, prosperous, thriving and
a city people want to move into. I
want to make a difference.
Nationally, I want America to
be great, prosperous, strong and
respected. I respect the flag, stand
for the “National Anthem” and be-
lieve in the Constitution. Call me
old fashioned, but I have traveled
all over the world and America
is the greatest, hands down. You
don’t see people leaving the U.S of

to come in.
What do you want? Think about
it. Do you want to make a differ-

Deaths rise as Nepal issues more permits for Mount Everest

The Associated Press
NAMCHE, Nepal — Scaling
Mount Everest was a dream
few realized before Nepal
opened its side of the moun-
tain to commercial climbing a
half-century ago. This year the
government issued a record
number of permits, leading to
traffic jams on the world’s high-
est peak that likely contributed
to the greatest death toll in four
years.
As the allure of Everest
grows, so have the crowds, with
inexperienced climbers falter-
ing on the narrow passageway
to the peak and causing deadly
delays, veteran climbers said.
After 11 people died this
year, Nepal tourism officials
have no intention of restricting
the number of permits issued,
instead encouraging even more
tourists and climbers to come
“for both pleasure and fame,”
said Mohan Krishna Sapkota,
secretary at the Ministry of
Tourism and Civil Aviation.
Nepal, one of the world’s
poorest countries, relies on
the climbing industry to bring
in $300 million each year. It
doesn’t cap the number of per-
mits it issues or control the
pace or timing of the expedi-
tions, leaving that to tour op-
erators and guides who take
advantage of brief clear weath-
er conditions whenever they
come, leading to pileups near
the peak.
On May 22, a climber
snapped a photo from a line
with dozens of hikers in color-
ful winter gear that snaked into
the sky.
Climbers were crammed
crampon-to-crampon along
a sharp-edged ridge above
South Col, with a 7,000-foot
(2,000-meter) drop on either
side, all clipped onto a single
line of rope, trudging toward
‘There were more people on Everest than there should be.’
Kul Bahadur Gurung, general secretary of the Nepal Mountaineering Association
the top of the world and risking
death as each minute ticked by.
“There were more people
on Everest than there should
be,” said Kul Bahadur Gurung,
general secretary of the Nepal
Mountaineering Association,
an umbrella group of all expe-
dition operators in Nepal. “We
lack the rules and regulations
that say how many people can
actually go up and when.”
The death toll this season
is the highest since 2015. Most
of those who died are believed
to have suffered from altitude
sickness, which is caused by
low amounts of oxygen at high
elevation and can cause head-
aches, vomiting, shortness of
breath and mental confusion.
Once only accessible to well-
heeled elite mountaineers, Ne-
pal’s booming climbing market
has driven down the cost of an
expedition, opening Everest
up to hobbyists and adven-
ture-seekers. Nepal requires
climbers to have a doctors’
note deeming them physically
fit, but not to prove their stami-
na at such extreme heights.
Because of the altitude,
climbers have just hours to
reach the top before they are
at risk of a pulmonary ede-
ma, when the lungs fill with
liquid. From Camp Four at
8,000 meters (26,240 feet) to
the 8,850-meter (29,035-foot)
peak, the final push on Everest
is known as the “death zone.”
The conditions are so in-
tense at such times that when a
person dies, no one can afford
to expend energy on carrying
the body down from the moun-
tain.
“Every minute counts
there,” said Eric Murphy,
a mountain guide from
Bellingham, Washington,
who climbed Everest for a
third time on May 23. He said
what should have taken 12
hours took 17 hours because
of struggling climbers who
were clearly exhausted but
had no one to guide or help
them.
Just a handful of inexpe-
rienced climbers, he said, is
“enough to have a profound
effect.”
The deaths this year on
Nepal’s side of the mountain
included Don Cash, a sales
executive from Utah, and
Christopher Kulish, an
attorney from Colorado, who
both died on their way down
from the peak.

Huawei asks court to

SHENZHEN, China

Huawei is the biggest

equipment and enjoys a

Grissett remained guardedly
optimistic.

The employee, stuffing the gun
into her pocket, tells the visitors
to leave the site because it’s under

While KOA has not identified

that she was terminated from her

Earlier this month, when Gris-
sett was again interviewed for an
update on the calf, Lil’ Bill had
continued to show progress. He
had quadrupled his birth weight
— to 34 pounds — although he
still weighed considerably less
than the typical calf of that age
(500 pounds).
But issues remained.
“He’s still having some diges-
tive issues,” Grissett said then.
“He may never be entirely nor-

manner on our properties or those

the incident has been relieved of
her duties at the Starkville KOA.”
It’s unclear what triggered the
incident shown in the video. Social
media users have attributed the
confrontation to possible racial
motivations.
On Facebook, users have start-
ed to “review bomb” — a phenom-
enon where people leave a large
number of negative reviews for a
product, business or service in re-
sponse to an issue — the Starkville
KOA site, citing the incident in the
video.
It’s also unclear whether the
land is under “private ownership,”
as the employee claimed in the vid-
eo. The KOA site at the Oktibbeha
campaign report comes after the
group missed last week’s reporting
deadline. At the time, Bart Greg-
ory, who is listed as the group’s
head, said the group was told by
the Secretary of State’s Office no
campaign finance report was re-
quired to be submitted. However,
Gregory said he’d check with the
Secretary of State’s Office and
submit a report if required.

Nearly 250 voters have cast ab-
sentee ballots ahead of Thursday’s
special election, according to the
city clerk’s office.
In addition to the citywide 1-per-
cent tax referendum, Starkville is
holding a special election in Ward 5
to replace former Alderman Patrick
Miller.
Miller, who was elected in 2017,

normally it’s just the week days,” he

In addition to the training flights,
traffic at GTRA will also increase

ruary, Delta Airlines announced it
was adding its fourth daily round-
trip flight between GTRA and At-

On May 21, the Vet School
tweeted that Lil’ Bill had encoun-
tered some complication and had
been returned to round-the-clock
care.
Tuesday, after beating the
odds for almost seven months,
the odds caught up with the little
bull with the big following.

the Starkville-Oktibbeha Consoli-

In 2012, former Mississippi
State University head basketball
coach Rick Stansbury leased the
land, in addition to adjacent Ok-
tibbeha County-owned property,
at the lake. The land had previous-
ly been leased by the Mississippi
Department of Wildlife, Fisheries,
and Parks.
SOCSD Public Information Of-
ficer Nicole Thomas said the dis-
trict doesn’t have a direct lease
with K AO, so the campsite land
is likely subleased through Stans-
bury.
Stansbury could not be reached
for comment on the incident by
press time.

by the noon Tuesday deadline for
in-person voting. She said the to-
tal does not include any additional
ballots the city may get in the mail

Ward 3 voters have cast the most
absentee ballots so far, with 68, fol-

Perry returning to MSU for sophomore season

Forward tested NBA waters after All
SEC Freshman Team season
BY BEN PORTNOY

Reggie Perry is headed back to Starkville.

The sophomore forward announced Tuesday night
he will return to Mississippi State after testing the
NBA Draft waters. The deadline for
early entrants to withdraw their names
from consideration is 5 p.m. June 10.
Perry averaged 9.7 points and 7.2 re-
bounds in 23.9 minutes per game last
season. He was named to the All-South-
eastern Conference Freshman Team
for his work.
Perry’s return will help mitigate the Perry
losses of Quinndary Weatherspoon
and Aric Holman. Coach Ben Howland will also have
sophomore Robert Woodard II and junior Nick Weath-

Cerantola College Baseball

Continued from Page 1B
Physically, Cerantola
is as gifted as young
pitchers come. A 30th
round pick of the Tampa
Bay Rays in last year’s
MLB First Year Play-
er Draft, his fastball
consistently touches 97
miles per hour on the
radar gun. There’s also
the matter of his 6-foot-5
frame, one that is closer
to 7-foot-3 when standing
atop the mound.
Yet in 14 1/3 innings
pitched this season,
Cerantola has been
a perplexing mix of
high-ceiling talent and
inconsistency finding the
strike zone.
After combining for
six innings and allow-
ing just three hits while
striking out six in starts
against Jackson State
and Arkansas-Pine Bluff,
Cerantola looked the part
of the No. 3 or midweek
starter that MSU desper-
ately lacked at the time.
Then came the mid-
season lull.
In started against
Arkansas-Little Rock and
Mississippi Valley State
— teams that finished a
combined 16-68 this sea-
son — Cerantola lasted
just one inning, allowing
seven runs, two hits and
four walks.
With the struggles
in tow, he sat down for
meetings with MSU
coach Chris Lemonis
and pitching coach Scott
Foxhall. While Lemonis
reassured him to contin-
ue working at his craft,
Foxhall got down to the
crux of the issues. The
two watched film and
broke down Cerantola’s
form in attempt to bring
more consistency in his
game.
“Big thing I’ve been
working on is getting
more on top of the ball so
I can keep the ball down,”
Cerantola said. “But
overall, just trying not to
do too much and fill up
the zone.”
Beyond the motion,
the difference between
Cerantola’s struggles and
brushes with brilliance
come down to strikes. In
strong outings against
Jackson State, Arkan-
sas-Pine Bluff and LSU,
he threw 63.1 percent
of his total pitches for
strikes.
By contrast, just 46.6
percent of Cerantola’s
pitches against MVSU
and Arkansas-Little Rock
were strikes.
Now boasting a slight-
ly retooled approach and
a formula for success, he
has seemingly thrust his
mid-year woes behind
him. Lemonis has even
said he expects Ceran-
tola to play a piece in the
upcoming postseason
run — something that
just a month and a half
ago was virtually un-
thinkable.
“I’m ready to help out
the team whenever they
need me,” Cerantola said.
“Whenever they put me
in, I’m going to do my
best.”

Braves

with a pitch and issued two walks in
Washington’s three-run sixth. Fried,
who gave up four runs in 5 1/3 innings,
left the game after walking Eaton with
the bases loaded, giving the Nationals a
3-2 lead.
Anthony Swarzak, making his At-
lanta debut after he was acquired from
Seattle on May 20, walked Anthony Ren-
don to force in another run.
Trainer’s room
Nationals: RHP Aníbal Sánchez will
come off the 10-day injured list to start
Wednesday night. Sánchez is returning
from a left hamstring injury. He has had
no setbacks and was confirmed as the
starter following the game. Martinez
waited until a final update on Sánchez,
who tested the hamstring by running
on Tuesday, before officially announcing
plans for the second game of the series.
Braves: There is no word on when
OF Ender Inciarte will start baseball
activities in his rehab from a lumbar
strain. Inciarte was placed on the 10-day
IL on May 15 and has missed 13 games.
Pickoff artist
Fried’s pickoff move produced two
outs. Fried threw to second to pick off
Turner in the first. After Eaton was
grazed by a pitch from Fried in the fifth,
the left-hander’s pickoff to first fooled
Eaton, who reacted too late. “For a team
like Washington that likes to run, I felt
he did a very good job of controlling
their running game,” said Braves third
baseman Josh Donaldson.
Streaking
Juan Soto led off the fourth with a sin-
gle up the middle for a 12-game hitting
streak. Soto advanced to second on Su-
zuki’s single and scored on a two-out sin-
gle by Robles. Rendon had three walks
and has reached base in 15 consecutive
games.
Finally we meet
It was the season’s first meeting of the
NL East rivals. This was the latest the
teams have opened their season series
since 2005 — the Nationals’ first year. “It
seems like we’ve played the Mets every
other day,” Martinez said. “It’s kind of
weird.”
Up next
Nationals: Sánchez (0-6, 5.10) will
look for his first win in his 10th start of
the season. He is 5-11 with a 4.99 ERA in
18 career starts against the Braves.
Braves: LHP Kevin Gausman (2-3,
4.33) is 4-1 with a 4.41 ERA in six career
starts against Washington.

Muguruza, Stephens
post straight-set wins
at French Open
The Associated Press
PARIS — Former
champion Garbine Mugu-
ruza and last year’s run-
ner-up Sloane Stephens
both posted straight-set
wins Wednesday to reach
the third round of the
French Open.
On a sunny morning
in the French capital,
Muguruza beat Johanna
Larsson 6-4, 6-1 on Court
Suzanne Lenglen.
Seeded 19th this year,
Muguruza won the title
at Roland Garros in 2016
when she upset Serena
Williams in the final. The
Spanish player is expect-
ed to face tougher oppo-
sition in her next match
against ninth-seeded
Elina Svitolina, who pro-
gressed to the third round
without hitting a shot.
Svitolina was set to play
67th-ranked Kateryna Ko-
zlova but organizers said
the Ukrainian player with-
drew with “intercostal
pain.” She twice reached
the quarterfinals in Paris.
Stephens, who lost
to Simona Halep in last
year’s final, needed a bit
more time to prevail 6-1,
7-6 (3) against the gritty
but error-prone Sara Sor-
ribes Tormo.
In a match that fea-
tured 11 breaks of serve,
Stephens could not hold
on to a 3-0 lead in the sec-
ond set and Sorribes Tor-
mo twice had the opportu-
nity to level at 1-set apiece
on her serve. A turning
point came in the 11th
game when the 22-year-
old Spaniard hit two con-
secutive double-faults to
drop serve.
The seventh-seeded
Stephens hit a series of
winners in the tiebreaker
and sealed the match with
a backhand down the line.
“Just decided to keep
it exciting, to play a bit
longer on that court,” Ste-
phens joked. “I missed it
from last year.”
Later, Roger Federer
and Rafael Nadal were to
play German qualifiers
in second-round match-
es. Federer faces 144th-
ranked Oscar Otte while
Nadal meets 114th-ranked
Yannick Maden.
Federer is playing at
Roland Garros after a
four-year absence. Nadal
is aiming for a record-ex-
tending 12th title at the
clay-court Grand Slam
tournament.

Transfer, play right away? Don’t bank on it, NCAA cases show
By RALPH D. RUSSO
The Associated Press
A string of recent high-pro-
file transfers gave the college
football world the impression
it was getting easier for players
to switch schools and compete
right away.
The reality is much different,
with the percentage of waiv-
er approvals dropping during
2018-2019 — even as the NCA A
changed rules to give athletes a
better shot at transferring with-
out needing to sit out a year.
Shea Patterson to Michigan,
Justin Fields to Ohio State and
Tate Martell to Miami seemed
to usher in a new era of free
agency, but waiver approvals
are still far from a sure thing.
That is prompting athletes,
coaches and others to complain
about a process that can be
somewhat mysterious.
Through May 24, the NCA A
committee for legislative relief
had approved 66 percent of
transfer waiver requests across
all sports for the 2018-19 aca-
demic year, down from 73 per-
cent in the four previous years
combined, according to the
NCA A. In football, the transfer
waiver approval rate for 2018-19
was 68 percent, down 2 percent-
age points compared with the
previous four academic years.
Players frustrated by denials
vent on social networks, while
coaches question the NCA A’s
consistency. Their complaints,
along with those from fans,
illustrate how a dearth of pub-
lic information muddles com-
parisons and leads onlookers
to draw conclusions without
knowing the full story behind
each case.
The NCA A Division I coun-
cil plans to review the rules
next month.
Guidelines haven’t changed
for what justifies a waiver. The
shift in April 2018 simply put
immediate eligibility back in
play for all cases. Previously,
the option was tightly restrict-
ed to only instances of egre-
gious behavior by the school
the player wanted to leave.
Generally, athletes must sit
out a year of competition after
transferring. In many sports, a
one-time exception can be used
for an athlete to play right away,
but not in high-profile sports
such as football and basketball.
Immediate eligibility for
transfers was effectively taken
off the table after the 2014-15
academic year, though from
2015-18 athletes could attempt
to restore a year of eligibility
after switching schools. Waiver
requests dipped during those
three years, then bounced back
in 2018-19 after the NCA A soft-
ened its rules.
The requests fall into several
categories, each with specific
guidelines but governed by the
same basic principle: Schools
have to show the transfer is
because of “circumstances
outside of the student-athlete’s
control and directly impacts
the health, safety or well-being
of the student-athlete,” accord-
ing to NCA A bylaws.
The most common waiver
requests are for:
n Injury or illness to a fami-
ly member
n Being pushed out of the
program by a coach at the orig-
inal school
n Egregious behavior by the
original school
n Mental health.
Waiver requests are judged
individually and subjectivity
bakes into the process — which
can make results seem ambig-
uous.
Attorney Tom Mars, who has
assisted Fields, Patterson and
others with successful waiver
requests, said ire at the NCA A
over rulings might be misdi-
rected, as individual schools
are responsible for applying
and presenting their cases.
Illinois tight end Luke Ford
(from Georgia), Cincinnati of-
fensive lineman James Hudson
(from Michigan) and Virginia
Tech offensive lineman Brock
Hoffman (Coastal Carolina) all
garnered headlines recently
when the NCA A denied their
waiver requests. All three new
schools are currently asking
for reconsideration of the rul-
ing or appealing.
The NCA A does not com-
ment on specific waiver cases
and rarely do schools, even
when an athlete waives protec-
tion under federal privacy laws.

I am at his (their) house. He
also ends calls with me at

some other subject.
She recently put in an
offer to buy a house that was
accepted. After she moves out
of the house they are renting,
he plans to remain there and
would like me to move in with
him. Here’s the catch: He
says he will be going over to
her (new) house to mow the
lawn, rake leaves, take care of
her car, etc. He says he runs
these errands for her because
she pays him.
I have told him
how much it
bothers me. I
feel he is placing
her above me.
Am I crazy for
being upset over
this? — SECOND

DEAR
SECOND BEST:
You’re not crazy.
Unless your
boyfriend is hard
up for money, it
appears there
may be more to
his relationship
with his ex-girlfriend than he
has revealed to you. If he
was disconnected from her
emotionally — and possibly
sexually — he wouldn’t cut
your conversations short or
hide the fact that he is texting
you. Unless he rearranges
his priorities, you should not
only not move in with him, you
should find a boyfriend with
whom YOU’RE No. 1.
DEAR ABBY: My wife,
“Riley,” and I got married three
months ago. I’m a corporate
pilot and have been for most
of our two-year relationship.
Now she’s telling me if I don’t
quit my dream job, she will
leave me.
I signed a year-long
contract with this company,
so it will cost me well over
$10,000 to get out of it early.
She hates my schedule, even
though I work only about 11
days a month. Riley thinks I
have to be home every night,
even though I warned her that
because of my career, I would
be gone a lot of nights. She
knew what she was getting
into, yet she’s trying to force
me into giving up this dream
job or lose her. Please help. —
TORN IN THE SOUTH
DEAR TORN: Riley knew
you were a pilot when she
married you. You explained to
her what that meant. That she
would threaten to leave you
because she doesn’t like the
responsibilities your career
carries with it is immature and
controlling.
If she was serious when
she made the ultimatum, I
think you should take her up
on it. And before you marry
anyone else, be sure the
woman is independent. Then
have premarital counseling
to ensure something like this
doesn’t happen again.

or special treatments.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You can’t act on everything. It’s
fine to abandon some of the
ideas. You’re having so many,
and they can’t all be the best.
But do keep track of them all.
Record them in some organized
way that will make it easier later
to prioritize.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Bring up the positive. Build on
what you’re doing right. Make

You haven’t experienced the

are for. They’ll show up; you’ll

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Life
gets instantly better when you
widen your circle of compassion,
and the improvements won’t
stop there. Note that being
more compassionate doesn’t
automatically mean being more
accommodating or compliant.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

never made anyone smarter. It’s
applying intelligence well that

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). When people give easily, it
implies they have much more to
share, establishing a magnetic
charisma. Those who give less
freely are indicating their limits.
The erosion of mystery renders
the gift and the giver less
attractive.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). If you were the same to
everyone, those close to you
would feel undervalued. So you
make sure that there are perks
to being part of your inner circle
that do not extend to the outer
rings.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). The amount of honesty
each person is willing and able
to accept has to do with ego
and emotional need. If a person
needs to feel that something
is true, they will, despite any
evidence to the contrary.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Generosity energizes you.
Though the help you give is sub-
stantial and much appreciated,
the act of giving it is still worth
more to you than the consider-
able value of the help itself.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). You’ll be aware of how
your individual daily operations
reflect the world at large. Every
small move you pull off will rep-
resent the coming together of
an incomprehensibly large-scale

A
surfside treat, California fish
tacos feature battered and
fried crispy white fish and
sprightly pickled vegetables. When
done right, they are light and fresh,
with a lively mix of textures and
flavors.
This recipe may look involved,
but the components come togeth-
er quickly, so invite your friends
to help. The frying uses a mere
3/4-inch layer of oil (no splattering
vats).
We made an ultra-thin batter by
adding two sources of carbonation,
beer and baking powder; they
in batches helped maintain the oil’s
temperature.
For toppings, we quick-pickled
onion and jalapeños and then used
the brine to brighten shredded cab-
bage. Slice fish on the bias if your
fillets are not 4 inches wide. Serve
with green salsa if desired.

MAMA’S POTATO SALAD
2 pounds Yukon Gold yellow,
white or red small potatoes
1 tablespoon vinegar white or
apple cider
1 cup mayonnaise
2 1/2 tablespoons mustard;
may add more if you want
more flavor
2 tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt, Lawry’s or
regular salt
1 teaspoon pepper
3 hard boiled eggs, peeled
and chopped
6 green onions or 1/2 red
onion, finely diced
1/2 cup sweet pickles
chopped or relish
2 celery stalks chopped
(optional)
2 tablespoons fresh herbs,
chopped (such as parsley,
chives or dill)
n Place potatoes in a large
pot of water. Bring to a boil
and cook until fork tender
but not falling apart. Drain
water and place potatoes in a
colander. Cover with a towel
and let potatoes steam for 15
minutes. This will help them
slowly and gently cook and
become even more tender.
Peel and cut into bite-sized
pieces and place in a large
bowl. Sprinkle with vinegar
and gently toss.
n To cook hard-boiled eggs,
place eggs in a pot and cover
with water. Sprinkle with 1/2
teaspoon of salt. Bring to a
rolling boil and then reduce
heat, cover, and let sit about
10-12 minutes. With a spoon,
remove one egg and run under
cold water. Peel and check for
the desired doneness. Chop
and slice hard-boiled eggs.
n To make dressing: in a
small bowl, stir together mayo,
mustard, sugar, salt and pep-
per. Set aside. Pour dressing
all over potatoes and gently
toss to coat, being careful
to not break up or mash
potatoes. Add hard-boiled
eggs, onions, pickles, celery
(optional), and fresh herbs.
Check for seasoning. Potatoes
will become more flavorful as
they soak up the dressing in
the refrigerator.
n Cover and let chill in refrig-
erator for at least 1-2 hours
before serving. Garnish with
sliced hard-boiled eggs and a
sprinkle of Lawry’s seasoned
salt.

and add to hot oil, briefly drag-
ging fish along surface of oil to
prevent sticking. Adjust burn-
er, if necessary, to maintain
oil temperature between 325
F and 350 F. Fry fish, stirring
gently to prevent pieces from
sticking together and turning
as needed, until golden brown
and crisp, about 8 minutes.
n Using slotted spoon or spi-
der skimmer, transfer fish to
prepared wire rack and place
in oven to keep warm. Return
oil to 350 F and repeat with
remaining fish. Serve fish and
pickled onions and cabbage
with tortillas, cilantro, and
crema.
