Around the state Mississippi cities approve tax increases for parks, tourism PEARL — Voters in two Mississippi cities have approved a sales tax to raise money to provide tourism services. WLBT-TV in Jackson reported that voters in Pearl have approved a 1 percent sales tax increase on restaurant bills and a 3 percent tax on hotel bills. Pearl Mayor Jake Wind- ham said the money will be used for a new pavilion at a city park. Some money will also be used to improve baseball fields and playground equipment. Windham says that will help with economic development. In Richland, voters approved a 2 percent increase on food and bev- erages and a 3 percent increase on hotel bills. That money will go to the parks and recreation system and to promote tourism in the area. 4A Friday, July 27, 2018

It springs from your genuine and deep respect of others. You’ll meet and come to understand many different kinds of people. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Love is a mystery. Maybe it’s a little scary because it requires that you let go of control. You want to monitor MALLARD FILLMORE and manipulate what happens, but then it wouldn’t be love. Embrace uncertainty. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Who takes care of you best? Sometimes that’s you, but right now you feel that you can’t — that there’s too much else you need to tend to. Non- sense. Take a step back. Ask for help. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). For the most part, children are not in control of where they live and how their days are FAMILY CIRCUS structured. But adults, at least in theory, should be. If it’s not working for you, change it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). It is OK not to know the nature of a relationship. Maybe it is yet to be determined. Anyway, keep an open mind. It is better to be uncertain than to

be certain of something false.
