Mississippi sits along one of North America’s most critical flyways, making spring migration a spectacular phenomenon that transforms our skies and landscapes each year. As winter loosens its grip, millions of birds funnel through the state on their journey from Central and South American wintering grounds to breeding territories across the continent.

We are excited to announce that Oakland has received another grant. We were waiting Monday morning to hear about yet another one. (Fingers crossed!) Communities Unlimited (CU) has awarded us a grant to bring together our faith-based communities to potentially create a huge core of people to further strengthen our community. We are so grateful to CU and its funder, Trust for Civic Life, for believing in Oakland and our vision.

Measles hit Spartanburg, South Carolina, hard. Reuters reported last month nearly 1,000 individuals got infected in Spartanburg County since October. The outbreak hit in places like the Global Academy of South Carolina where 21% of students had not been vaccinated, then spread to the unvaccinated at places like Costco, Publix, Goodwill, Burger King, the library, a museum, and the post office, reported the New York Times.
“This is not normal,” state epidemiologist Dr. Linda Bell said. “This is unprecedented.”

Truth can be strange, and those who think to the contrary should try reading Julian Sancton’s new book, “Neptune’s Fortune, The Billion Dollar Shipwreck and the Ghosts of the Spanish Empire.”
At the center of the book is Roger Dooley, a Cuban American who explored the island’s waters for Castro, scoured the Spanish archives for decades, and at age 71 found off the coast of Colombia the wreck of a famous 18th century ship loaded with gold, which neither he nor anyone else has gotten to touch.

JXN Water and Entergy Mississippi have something in common. They are both regulated monopolies that have failed to provide affordable water and electricity to justify their monopoly status. They are “natural monopolies” based on the premise that competition involves costly duplication of plants and pipes and transmission lines and thus higher costs. Hence, regulated monopolies to provide cheaper water and electricity.
