ZACK PLAIR, Managing Editor BETH PROFFITT Advertising Director The MICHAEL FLOYD Circulation/Production Manager Opinion Dispatch MARY ANN HARDY Controller Our View Cartoonist view Starkville Board of Aldermen flunk Civics test Board of aldermen and city council meetings provide an opportunity to see the workings of our system of government at the most basic level. Those unfamiliar with how local governments operate soon realize that there are rules that govern what our elected officials may or may not do and how measures must be addressed. But Tuesday night in Starkville, it was the majority of the city’s board of alder- men who proved themselves ignorant of those tenets, damaging not only the board’s reputation, but the city’s as well. During the meeting, a group of Starkville citizens asked the board for a permit to hold a gay pride parade in the city on March 24. By a 4-3 vote, the board rejected that request. Board members Ben Carver, Da- vid Little, Henry Vaughn and vice-mayor Roy A. Perkins voted to deny the permit, refusing to state their reasons for their votes. Their conduct is not only unethical — citizens have an expectation that the board will explain the decisions they make — but most likely a violation of the Mississippi voices Constitution. All four of the board members should be ashamed, but it is especially true of Perkins, an attorney and candidate for a Early intervention gets a great judge position on 14th Chancery District Court.

Around the state Man dies after police chase, struggle with officer MERIDIAN — Mississippi authorities say a man has died in custody after a chase that ended with his car in a ditch and the man struggling with an officer. Meridian Police Sgt. Dareall Thompson tells WTOK-TV that passengers ran as the officer tried to arrest the driver Monday, and a state Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks officer tried to help. Coroner Clayton Cobler identified the dead man Tuesday as 33-year-old Jason Stevens of Meridian. The short chase began in Meridian, ending just outside the city. Lauderdale County Sheriff’s department Chief Deputy Ward Calhoun tells the Meridian Star that officers arrested the man, saw that he was in distress and called an ambulance, which took him to a hospital. Spokesman Warren Strain says the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation is looking into the death. 8A Wednesday, February 21, 2018 The Dispatch • www.cdispatch.com SPORTS EDITOR SECTION Adam Minichino SPORTS LINE 662-241-5000 B Sports THE DISPATCH n CDISPATCH.COM n WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 2018 PREP FOOTBALL Gray signs with U.S. Military Academy

Buchanan on deadline: slow-cooked pork roast BY KATIE WORKMAN The Associated Press

lowly cooking a big hunk of tough, inexpensive meat isn’t Sjust the best way to cook this cut of meat. It’s really the only way. Most tough cuts of meat come from the hardest working parts of the animal, and therefore have a lot of collagen. This collagen needs to be broken down and converted to gelatin for the meat to become tender, and that is accomplished by low and slow cooking. Here, if you want to rub the meat with the spice rub the night before and leave it loosely covered in the fridge overnight, the dry rub will season the meat a little more bakerbettie.com deeply.

This meat can be eaten just as it is, with any kind of starchy side from mashed or roasted potatoes to rice to orzo or another pasta. Or you can make it into tacos by wrapping the meat in warmed, soft corn or flour tortillas and adding in whatever feels right: avocados, shredded cheese, a dollop of crème fraiche or sour cream, salsas of any kind, fresh cilantro leaves, pickled onions, fresh onions, chopped tomatoes, shredded zucchini. You could also use this meat in enchiladas, burritos or any kind of Mexican-inspired casserole. Finely shred it and add to huevos rancheros? Pork sandwiches with barbecue sauce, perhaps?
