Entergy: Fuel-cost procedures OK
The Clarion-Ledger, 2/11/9 An independent audit of Entergy Mississippi’s fuel purchase policies recommends how the utility can most fairly pass along fuel-cost adjustments to customers.

Let’s ‘go check on Bubba,’ mayor reportedly told crew
The Clarion-Ledger, 2/11/9 While it was not unusual for Mayor Frank Melton to instruct his bodyguards to escort him on spontaneous knock-and-talks through Jackson neighborhoods, the original plan for one evening in August 2006 was to take a group of young men to a preseason professional football game.

Tennessee’s Lane Kiffin has long way to go before he’s Pat Summitt-class
Tennessee’s Lane Kiffin has long way to go before he’s Pat Summitt-class Kiffin hasn’t even coached a college game. And the guy he’s relying on for advice, recruiting and otherwise, assistant head coach Ed Orgeron, won exactly three Southeastern Conference games (3-21) in three seasons as Ole Miss’ head coach before somebody snapped an ammonia…

Documents suggest Texas Tech’s Leach has turned down interviews
Documents suggest Texas Tech’s Leach has turned down interviews Though Mike Leach’s loyalty has been an issue in his stalled contract negotiations, documents obtained Monday from the International Marketing Group suggest that those concerns may be overstated.

What do recruiting rankings mean anyway?
What do recruiting rankings mean anyway? What do the recruiting rankings mean? That’s a question I often get, and based on the spirited discussion recruiting rankings can generate, it’s obvious to me that they mean very different things to different people.

Kiffin asks for beating by Florida
Kiffin asks for beating by Florida When Lane Kiffin grows up, he’s probably going to be more than a little embarrassed by the events surrounding his first National Signing Day as head coach at Tennessee.
