Albert Einstein wrote on May 23, 1946 that “The unleashed power of the atom has changed everything save our modes of thinking...”
One can say the same of the torching of Temple Beth Israel, three months ago, on January 10, 2026.
Memories are short. People’s minds move to other stories in the course of 24 hour news cycles at their peril.

What does the holy-warrior culture Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is cultivating in our military have in common with the holy-militant culture Imperial Wizard Sam Bowers cultivated in his White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan?
I fell into this question after reading Hegseth’s latest militant prayer and then about the trove of Klan artifacts uncovered at the Mississippi Department of Public Safety as it prepared to relocate. Among the items recovered were a Klan charter and a March 1, 1964, Bowers lecture. (See all items at Jackson Jambalaya.)

Blessed Holy Week. This is the week in which the Christian world remembers the ultimate sacrifice: when Jesus gave up all he had, endured more suffering than any of us could ever imagine, and sacrificed his very life in order to save us from our sins. Before offering himself up as the final sacrifice, Jesus taught his disciples many things, including how to pray. In what has become known as “The Lord’s Prayer” or the “Our Father,” Jesus includes the petition, “Forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors” (Matthew 6:12).

The bonding company acting as guarantor for three former Indianola aldermen has agreed to pay nearly $44,000 owed to the city for a 2023 improper payout to a local contractor.
State Auditor Shad White’s office confirmed to The Enterprise-Tocsin this week that it has received a check from Western Surety Bonding Co. in the amount of $43,600. This payment will make the city whole and will likely end a two-and-a-half-year saga that dominated the final two years of the last board’s term.

OUTDOOR TRUTHS
If one has been hunting or fishing long enough, he has a few stories that fit into the category of either questionable or unbelievable. In fact, those tales are so unbelievable that without a witness to confirm the event, most would not only question their veracity but would deny the outcome. I can quickly think about three such stories; all of which involve fishing.
