Teetering Miss. school districts could squeeze by
The Clarion-Ledger, 2/17/9 Most of the eight Mississippi school districts initially poised to run out of cash before the end of the school year may be able to make it after all.

The Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal Editorial, 2/17/9 As both chambers of the Mississippi Legislature scurried last week to make a key deadline, the process was slowed to a crawl as members invoked their constitutional right to have bills read.

Bill wasn’t given enough consideration
The Hattiesburg Amercian Editorial, 2/17/9 Now that the $787 billion stimulus package has cleared Congress and awaits President Barack Obama’s signature, what can we expect?

PSC: Give commissioners tools to do job
The Clarion-Ledger Editorial, 2/17/9 Attorney General Jim Hood’s lawsuit against Entergy and a seemingly renewed interest by the state Public Service Commission to aggressively regulate electric utilities has brought calls for reoganizing the process.

Adams: Hamilton stands tall in Kiffin’s corner
http://www.govolsxtra.com/news/2009/feb/15/hamilton-stands-tall-in-kiffins-corner/ Tennessee athletic director Mike Hamilton was convinced he had found the right football coach when he hired Lane Kiffin after the 2008 season.
