Will Raiford of Merkel and Cocke in Clarksdale, Jim Lees of the Charleston, West Virginia law firm of Hunt & Lees, and Philip Stroud of the Southaven, Mississippi firm of Stroud & Harper as plaintiffs lawyers in a medical malpractice case in DeSoto Shelby County just got a 23,600,000 verdict in a medical malpractice case invovling their client’s breast cancer; her ob-gyn ignored her complaints relating to breast lumps both before and during a pregnancy.

I was a little sad that the Big Star shows at one point seemed to be nothing more than music-for-money in the same sense of his oldies package Box Tops shows. There was always kind of a large cynicism ..

Just yesterday Hayne testified for the AG's Office in a fairly unusual murder trial in Lamar County. There is a decent summary of the testimony in the Hattiesburg American. The death was in 2002 and w ..

Didn't see Big Star back then-- it was Terry Manning's "The Hot Dogs," another great Ardent power pop band, in New Dorm lobby. ..

Following Razor's lead in a gentle course correction, I think he is right in his assertion that the cannonball was placed there purely for theatrical effect. As noted above, it was my understanding th ..
