Creative Writing Contest

* Our friends at the NWS in Jackson are teaming up with Radio Shack in Clinton, MS to sponsor a creative writing contest. The topics are provided and deal with severe weather safety, and the contest is open to students in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades. Your entry should be 1-2 pages, and creativity and originality are the main factors that will be judged. If you know anyone who would like to participate, send them this link:

* March Madness Update: I sure hated to see the South Alabama Jaguars go down in defeat. They played the heavily favored Florida Gators a close game in the first half. I actually spent a semester at USA after graduating from Miss. State - a very fun time! But, I was quite pleased to see Alabama pull the win out against Marquette. What a shooting performance by Jean Felix! The SEC is now 3-0 in the tournament, with LSU and Arkansas still to play their first round games.
