Judge halts oil and gas pit rule appeals

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A state district judge on Tuesday sided with New Mexico’s oil and gas industry, putting on hold legal appeals related to efforts by the industry to revamp rules for handling drilling and production wastes.

The New Mexico Oil and Gas Association had asked for the appeals process to be halted so the state Oil Conservation Commission could tackle the so-called pit rule administratively.

The commission has scheduled a weeklong hearing later this month to

Oil and gas producers, some state lawmakers and a task force appointed by Gov. Susana Martinez have backed regulatory changes to make the state more business-friendly.

address industry’s proposed changes to the rule, but environmentalists are seeking to stop the proceeding.

Eric Jantz, an attorney with the New Mexico Environmental Law Center, said he was disappointed the appellate process will not

be able to unfold. Instead, he said the industry is taking advantage of a change in the political climate since the pit rule was first adopted by the commission.

“There’s an administration change and they run back,” he said of the indus-

It’s not déjà vu — incumbents are, for the most part, standing by their posts, making the names on filing day’s roster oddly familiar.

Jan. 10 was filing day for the city of Roswell — and as 5 p.m. approached so did the last chance to turn in an application to run for City Council. At the end of the day, however, few stepped up to run against incumbents — one from every city ward is seeking re-election.

Bob Maples, Steve Henderson, Judy Stubbs, Amarante Fresquez and Elena Velasquez are all hoping to represent wards 1 through 5, respectively.

New names include Juan Oropesa, longtime executive director of the Roswell Hispano Chamber of Commerce, who’s expressed interest in representing Ward I. Billy Wood has done the same for Ward II. Jeanine Corn Best has signed up to represent Ward III. Ward IV is the most contested, with Milburn Dolen and Savi-

try. “The danger here is we end up on this endless cycle of rulemakings, appeals and then more rulemaking without ever having any real resolution.”

The pit rule was initially approved by the Oil Conservation Commission under for mer Gov. Bill Richardson’s administration in 2008. The rule governs how oil and gas producers around the state handle wastes from drilling operations in buried tanks, sumps, pits and closedloop systems.

The regulations are

aimed at preventing wastes from seeping into groundstreams and water, arroyos.

The New Mexico Oil and Gas Association and the Independent Petroleum Association of New Mexico have both filed applications with the commission to amend the rule.

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Mitt Romney cruised to a solid victory in the New Hampshire primary Tuesday night, picking up steam from his first-place finish in the lead-off Iowa caucuses and firmly establishing himself as the man to beat for the Republican presidential nomination.

“Tonight we made history,” Romney told cheering supporters before pivoting to a stinging denunciation of President Barack Obama. “The middle class has been crushed,” in the past three years, he said, “our debt is too high and our opportunities too few” — remarks that made clear he intends to be viewed as the party’s nominee in waiting after only two contests.

His rivals said otherwise, looking ahead to South Carolina on Jan. 21 as the best place to stop the former Massachusetts governor. Already, several contenders and committees supporting them had put down heavy money to reserve time for television advertising there.

Even so, the order of finish — Ron Paul second, followed by Jon Huntsman, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum — scrambled the field and prolonged the increasingly desperate competition to See ROMNEY Page A3

City Councilwoman Elena Velasquez, who’s witnessed the development of Roswell since the 1960s, says she is seeking re-election to her Ward V seat during the municipal election in March.

Velasquez was first appointed to the council in 2004 by then-Mayor Bill Owen.

Velasquez and her husband Adan run their 41year old business, Adan’s

Collision Center, two blocks from where she grew up.

Velasquez highlighted the council’s recent vote regarding redistricting, which established two majority-minority voting wards, to be its most important decision during her tenure. “I really appreciate the City Council supporting me in my efforts to get the two wards. We got the votes that we needed and that was important. It sends a positive message to the minority community,” she said. Velasquez also praised members of the

council for their diligent efforts to keep the Youth ChalleNGe program in Roswell.

Velasquez has also been very involved with youth ministry, which “gives me an insight to programs like Youth ChalleNGe, and how those kinds of programs can make a lifelong impact on a young person,” she said. She is also involved with prison ministries, which “helps me to understand both sides of law enforcement and also the individual that is out there really struggling and ends

up in that lifestyle. We have to reach out to try to have a way of helping them to get out of that lifestyle,” she said.

If she is re-elected, Velasquez hopes to continue to build upon the city’s economic development programs and efforts. “I believe Roswell has a good economic development plan.

We’re very aggressive in going after companies to try to get more jobs into Roswell,” she said. She See VELASQUEZ, Page A3

Geithner in Beijing, faces uphill struggle on Iran

U.S. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Chinese Vice Premier Li Keqiang at the Zhongnanhai Purple Pavilion in Beijing, China, today.

BEIJING (AP) — China and the United States have pledged during a visit

by T reasury Secretary Timothy Geithner to cooperate on boosting the global economic recovery, but Chinese backing for U.S. sanctions on Iran’s oil

industry appeared unlikely.

China buys almost onethird of Iran’s oil exports and has rejected the U.S. sanctions as a tool to rein in Tehran’s nuclear program. That sets Washington up for a public setback

if the government of the world’s second-largest economy refuses to cooperate.

Geithner was expected to make the U.S. case for sanctions in meetings today with Premier Wen Jiabao, Vice President Xi Jinping — who is in line to become China’s next leader — and Vice Premier Li Keqiang, another rising star.

At the start of his meeting with Xi, Geithner said the main priority of his talks was economic growth and recovery in the United States and around the world, although he did briefly mention nuclear nonproliferation.

“On economic growth, financial stability around the world, on nonproliferation, we have what we view as a very strong cooperative relationship with the gover nment and we are looking forward to building on that,” he said before reporters were ordered out of the meeting room in the

Great Hall of the People in central Beijing.

Geithner also passed along greetings from President Barack Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, saying both were looking forward to seeing Xi “in Washington relatively soon.” Xi is expected to visit the U.S. sometime in the next several months.

Geithner met with his counterpart, Vice Premier Wang Qishan, on Tuesday night. According to the of ficial Xinhua News Agency, Wang also pledged cooperation on global economic issues, and called on the United States to loosen export controls of high-tech products to China, one of China’s complaints about the countries’ trade relationship.

U.S. critics, meanwhile, say Chinese currency controls keep the yuan undervalued and give its exporters an unfair advantage, distorting trade at a time when Washington

and other governments are under pressure to bring down unemployment.

China’s trade surplus with the United States widened 24.2 percent to $17.4 billion in December, according to data released Tuesday.

Geithner also is due to visit Tokyo, another major buyer of Iranian oil, for talks after he leaves Beijing later today.

China has criticized U.S. on Iran, sanctions approved by Obama on New Year’s Eve, as improper and ineffective. Beijing supported U.N. sanctions on Iran’s nuclear program but says action should be multilateral.

The sanctions would target Tehran’s oil industry by barring financial institutions from the U.S. market if they do business with Iran’s central bank.

China’s oil imports “have nothing to do with the nuclear issue,” a Chinese deputy foreign minister, Cui Tiankai, said Mon-

day.

Analysts in Beijing said China has no reason to go along with the sanctions.

“China does not want to be seen as helping the U.S. when China’s own interest is concer ned,” said Wang Lian, an Iran expert at Peking University’s School of International Relations.

He said Chinese opposition might be reinforced by Washington’s latest military strategy report published last week. It singles out Beijing as a power with the potential to affect the U.S. economy and security.

Industry analysts say that even if China agreed, it would face formidable challenges in trying to replace Iran as an oil source.

Premier Wen is due to visit major oil producers Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar on an of ficial trip that starts this weekend.

BANDA ACEH, Indonesia (AP) — A powerful earthquake hit off the coast of wester n Indonesia early Wednesday, prompting officials to briefly issue a tsunami warning. Panicked residents ran from their homes, some fleeing to high ground by car or motorcycle, but there were no reports of injuries or serious damage.

The U.S. Geological Survey said the magnitude-7.3 quake struck 260 miles off the coast of Aceh province just after midnight. It was centered 18 miles beneath

the ocean floor.

People in the provincial capital, Banda Aceh — still deeply traumatized by the 2004 monster quake and tsunami — poured into the streets as sirens blared from local mosques. Some headed to the hills, choking roads with traffic.

In the town of Simeulue, patients were evacuated from a hospital.

Of ficials contacted by The Associated Press in several coastal cities, however, had not received any reports about injuries or significant damage.

“We’re trying to ease the rules that are making us uncompetitive, but we’re doing it in such a way that we still believe is protective of the environment. We’re not just throwing out the old rule,” said Wally Drangmeister, a spokesman for the oil and gas group.

The New Mexico Environmental Law Center, which is representing Earthworks’ Oil and Gas Accountability Project in the legal proceedings, maintains that the changes would “significantly relax” parts of the pit rule.

Supporters of the rule say it’s needed to protect human health and the environment from oilfield waste.

Oil and gas producers, some state lawmakers and a task force appointed by Gov. Susana Martinez have backed regulatory changes to make the state more business-friendly. Industry supporters point to the more than $2 billion brought in during the 2010 fiscal year from oil and gas taxes, royalties and other revenues.

Whether the fate of the pit rule will af fect the uptick in oil and gas activity in southeaster n New Mexico remains unclear.

Federal land managers processed about 800 permits to drill in New Mexico’s portion of the Permian Basin, and several operators have plans to build new rigs, which Bureau of Land Management expects will result in sustained development for at least the next two years.

A visitation will be held on Thursday, Jan. 12, 2012, from 5-7 p.m., at LaGrone Funeral Chapel in Ruidoso.

Mrs. Watkins, surrounded by her family, passed away peacefully from complications of Alzheimer’s on Jan. 7, 2012, at Casa Maria Health Care Center in Roswell. She had lived in Roswell for the past 12 years.

Mrs. Watkins was born in Lubbock, Texas, on Jan. 13, 1920. She was the oldest child of Joe and Marie McClung. She graduated from Lubbock High School.

B.J. Watkins married Boots McClung on Sept.

emerge as the true conservative rival to Romney.

Romney fashioned his victory despite a sustained assault by rivals eager to undermine his claim as the contender best situated to beat Obama and help reduce the nation’s painfully high unemployment.

Gingrich led the way, suggesting at one point that Romney was a corporate raider, rhetoric that the front-runner’s defenders said was more suitable to a Democratic opponent than a conservative Republican.

Returns from 52 percent of New Hampshire precincts showed Romney with 37 percent of the vote, followed by Texas Rep Paul with 23 percent, for mer Utah Gov. Huntsman with 17 percent and for mer House Speaker Gingrich and former Pennsylvania Sen. Santorum with 10 percent each. With his victory, Romney became the first Republican to sweep the first two contests in competitive races since Iowa gained the lead-off spot in presidential campaigns in 1976.

Seeking to undercut Romney’s victory, Gingrich and others suggested in

Mrs. Watkins worked at various businesses in Roswell and Ruidoso through the years. Many will remember her friendly smile and helpful services.

Her most enjoyable times advance that anything below 40 percent or so would indicate weakness by the nomination frontrunner.

Romney’s win was worth at least four delegates to the Republican National Convention next summer.

Paul earned at least two delegates and Huntsman at least one. Another four remained to be awarded, based on final vote totals.

Already, candidates and political action committees aligned with them were enor mous reserving amounts of television time for the first-in-the-South primary in little more than a week.

Unlike Iowa and New Hampshire, where unemployment is well below the national average, joblessness is far higher in South Carolina. That creates a different political environment for the race.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry, who skipped New Hampshire to get a head start in South Carolina, said Tuesday’s results showed “the race for a conservative alternative to Mitt Romney remains wide open.” the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office, the New Mexico State Police and the Roswell Police Department will participate.

Boots wore many hats and touched many hearts, but her greatest loves were the Lord, her husband, her family, dancing, good music, fishing and shopping. Her home was always open to her children’s friends and most of the time there was someone living with them she cared for as one of her own.

While Velasquez spoke in favor of the mayor’s proposal to add a Municipal Infrastructure Gross Receipts Tax to the city’s current GR T, given its ability to attract businesses and create jobs, she said, “The most important thing about it is that we’re giving the people of Roswell the opportunity to decide.”

Although candidates are elected to a certain ward, Velasquez said, “Once you’ve been elected to a particular ward, once I’m in, I represent the whole city. I don’t represent just the people that live in my ward. I think that’s critical for people to realize and understand that.”

Ski industry association suing US Forest Service j.bergman@rdrnews.com

DENVER (AP) — The National Ski Areas Association has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Forest Service challenging a new water-rights clause in some resorts’ permits.

The trade group had said in December that it would sue. It filed its lawsuit Monday in federal court in Denver.

The lawsuit argues the Forest Service has directed employees to insert language in ski area permits to seize resorts’ privately owned water rights at ski areas on national forests. The trade association is seeking a nationwide injunction to set aside the directive, which it says exceeds the authority of the Forest Service.

The Forest Service has told The Denver Post previously that the new water-rights clause protects the long-term viability of ski areas by tying water resources tied to the land, not the resort operator.

New Mexico, Arizona are not sister states A4 Wednesday, January 11, 2012

OPINION

SANTA FE — At first glance, New Mexico and Arizona appear to be sister states. Both were claimed and explored by Spain in the 1500s. Both had equal periods of Spanish, Mexican and American rule. And both were granted U.S. statehood a month apart.

But otherwise, the differences were great. For nearly a millennium, New Mexico was peopled by peaceful Pueblo farmers. Arizona was controlled by marauding, nomadic Apaches. New Mexico was colonized in 1598. But Spain had little interest in the land that now is Arizona. It was hard to traverse because of that huge canyon blocking northern exploration and travel. It was left to the Apaches.

When Mexico gained its independence from Spain in 1821, it began allowing non-Spanish settlers and traders. That began the Santa Fe Trail, bringing people of many cultures and ethnicities from the East and Midwest.

Most of them didn’t keep moving

west to Arizona where there was no protection from Apaches. Arizona’s early migration came from the Southern states looking for farm land. But the farther west they got, the more arid the land became.

The interest in Arizona didn’t start until the United States decided it wanted California. Thus, in 1846, Gen Kearny’s California Column claimed Santa Fe, stayed for a while to establish a government and then continued down the Rio Grande and through southern Arizona to California.

New Mexico came close to gaining statehood in 1849 but the compromise of 1850, heavily influ-

Roswell Daily Record

enced by the slavery issue, made us a territory. It took Arizona another 13 years just to become a territory. It petitioned the U.S. government five times.

After the formation of the Confederacy, Arizona petitioned twice and finally was accepted as a Confederate territory after the Confederacy invaded New Mexico and claimed both states. That caught Washington’s attention, which made Arizona a U.S. territory in 1863 after turning back the Confederates at Glorieta.

Tucson fully expected to become the territorial capital but because of its Confederate leanings, Prescott was the first capital. Soon Tucson grabbed it away. Prescott got it back and it eventually ended up in Phoenix. Santa Fe has been New Mexico’s capital for more than 400 years.

Between 1875 and 1910, New Mexico and Arizona tried many times to gain statehood from Congress but they never worked

together. Several times one house of Congress or the other approved statehood for one state or the other.

In 1906, Congress tried getting everything together. Both houses approved statehood for a combined state called Arizona. It was subject to approval by voters of both states. New Mexicans approved it 2-1. Arizonans defeated it 5-1. Did they fear domination by the bigger New Mexico?

Even though the two states never liked each other, they both were mutually disrespected by Washington. General Sherman’s famous comment about declaring war on Mexico again and making it take New Mexico back, he also applied to Arizona.

Gen. Lew Wallace hated his 1878 appointment as New Mexico governor and couldn’t wait to get out. John C. Fremont was appointed Arizona governor the same year.

When told that meant he had to live in Arizona, he resigned.

According to True West magazine, published in Cave Creek, Arizona, the McDowell Mountains east of Scottsdale, Fort McDowell and McDowell Road all are named for Gen. Irvin McDowell, noted in history for losing both battles of Bull Run. Also according to True West, which has dedicated its February edition to Arizona’s centennial, on Feb. 14, George Warren had drinking and gambling problems and was judged insane. He also lost the Four Queens Mine betting that he could outrun a horse. That didn’t keep his likeness from appearing on Arizona’s state seal.

So, at the beginning of 2012, we honor two of the most unusual states to be admitted to the union.

Both have made outstanding contributions to our nation despite 66 years of misgivings by Washington.

Maintain optimism

A bright and shiny new year always brings with it the promise that this time we — both as a nation and as individuals — can finally get it right.

And while there are no guarantees that we’ll succeed on either level, the hope that we can transcend our problems and become better people and a better nation reawakens our optimism and enthusiasm for life.

The year ahead can be a time of great change or rededication to the political philosophies we already have in place, depending on the mood of the electorate and what direction we take at the polls. Nationally, we face fiscal issues on a level not seen in decades, with health care, taxes, immigration, Social Security, Medicare and many domestic concerns expected to be debated, legislated, voted upon and brought before the courts in the next 12 months.

On an international level, Americans have a ringside seat to global financial ills, the winding down of a long and draining war and unrest, upheaval and hope in the Middle East.

State governments also face unprecedented challenges. State governors and general assemblies have the tough jobs of balancing the budget against the needs and wants of the electorate. It’s a difficult undertaking that ultimately lands on the shoulders of the taxpayers. It will take wisdom, dedication, impartiality and selflessness to keep the state solvent and everyone may have to give a little in order to keep things on an even keel.

On the local and county level, boards of commissioners tussle with keeping their budgets in line with uncertain revenues and, in many parts of the country, aging infrastructure, a populace weary of escalating taxes, eroding property values and rising costs.

For both the public and private sectors, the uncertainty of tomorrow can make it difficult to plan for today.

A new year, a chance to start over and fix the things that are broken, should be a good thing, but in these times that can seem a daunting task. Planning when no one knows what tomorrow holds can feel like a huge leap of faith, but what it really takes is a commitment toward working together for the common good, as well as the realization that we’re not in this alone.

We will do what we always do: stand and fall together, as cities, counties, states and a nation. And together we will solve the problems that are before us.

DEAR DOCTOR K: My 12year -old daughter and 14year -old son are both overweight. What can I do to help my kids get back to a healthier weight?

DEAR READER: Some of my patients seem to think that it doesn’t matter how much their pre-teen and teenage kids eat, so long as the kids keep growing normally. And by “growing” they’re thinking about height, not width. They think that you don’t need to watch what you eat until you become an adult. Why? Because that’s when the diseases associated with obesity — heart attacks, strokes, diabetes — hit you.

But what your children eat can profoundly affect their

Ideas have sex, and we’re better for it JOHN STOSSEL CREATORS SYNDICATE

An idea walks into a bar.

She meets another idea. They get together, and nine months later (or maybe it’s nine minutes or seconds? It’s not clear how it works with ideas), a new idea is born. A baby idea with the best traits of both parents.

When this happens a lot, everyone gets smarter and the world gets better.

health as adults. Now is the time to teach your children to make healthy choices. Kids model your actions much more than they follow your spoken advice, especially if they are teenagers. So use this opportunity to get the whole family exercising regularly and eating sensibly.

Here are some specific things you can do to help get

it from British journalist Matt Ridley.

Ridley, author of “The Rational Optimist,” says the reason life gets better is that ideas have sex.

“Ideas spread through trade,” he told me. “And when they meet, they can mate, and you can produce combinations of different ideas. I think a good example is a camera pill, which takes a picture of your insides on the way through. It came about (during) a conversation between a gastroenterologist and a guided missile designer ... a process very similar to sex in biology, because through sex,

your kids back on track: — Encourage exercise every day, for at least 15 to 30 minutes.

— Plan active family outings such as bicycling, walking, hiking and swimming.

— Limit television, computer and video game time to one hour per day.

— Switch to low-fat or nonfat milk and reduced-fat cheeses and yogurts.

— Drink water instead of soda or juice.

— Limit fried and high-fat foods.

— Eat at least five servings each day of fruits and vegetables.

— Serve fruits and vegetables as snacks instead of cookies, chips or ice cream.

genes meet and recombine, and you get new combinations of genes. That’s what causes innovation in biology, and innovation in culture.”

And life improves.

“Our living standards have shot up in my lifetime. The average income of the average person, corrected for inflation, is three times what it was when I was born (in 1958).

And life span is 30 percent longer.”

This didn’t happen because of central planning. It’s the spontaneous market generated from free individuals that sets and keeps it in motion.

Ridley goes on to argue that

— Avoid high-fat sauces, salad dressings and spreads (such as butter or mayonnaise).

— Limit how often your family eats in restaurants. When eating out, choose lower -fat items, such as a grilled chicken sandwich instead of a burger, a salad instead of fries, or pasta with tomato sauce instead of pepperoni pizza.

Being overweight during childhood increases the risk of health problems later in life.

That being said, however, you should never severely cut back your child’s calories. Even children who are overweight need three well-balanced meals and one or two nutriSee DR. K, Page A5

even sex between the ideas of dumb people produces better results than those of a brilliant central planner.

“If you look at human history ... lots of people in a room who are talking to each other, however stupid they are, can achieve a lot more than a lot of clever people in the room who never talk to each other.

So it’s not individual intelligence that counts in how well a society works. It’s how well people communicate and exchange ideas with each other.”

Pearce to host VA medical center meeting in Artesia Roswell Daily Record

I recently received notice from Congressman Steve Pearce about a Town Hall meeting tomorrow in Artesia. This meeting will take place at 3 p.m. at the Ocotillo Theatre, located at 310 West Main Street. He stressed how urgent and important this meeting will be to area veterans, so — Alert! Don’t miss this meeting! Car pool, charter a bus, book a non-stop flight, — whatever it takes, but don’t miss this opportunity to pose your questions and problems directly to the VA Medical Center Administrator and staff, in the presence of your Congressman and the Press.

Pearce shared with me, “I will host a meeting on Thursday, Jan. 12, in which veterans will have the opportunity to talk with the staf f of the VA hospital in Albuquerque, including CEO George Marnell. After hearing concerns from area veterans

related to the VA hospital system, I hosted several meetings last year in Roswell, Las Cruces, Alamogordo, Carlsbad, and Silver City to allow veterans and VA hospital staf f to interact and communicate their ideas. Both veterans and VA staff have communicated that these meetings were extremely successful, and I look forward to helping vets in Artesia with similar needs.

In light of this, it’s not hard to understand why Ridley calls himself a rational optimist. He reminds me of the late, great economist Julian Simon, author of “The Ultimate Resource,” who for years stood virtually alone in explaining the benefits of population growth, free exchange and the mixing of ideas.

“I was fed up with the pessimists,” Ridley explained. “When I was a student in the 1970s, the grown-ups told me that the future of the world was bleak, that the oil was running out, that the population explosion was unstoppable, that famine was inevitable. I feel kind of cross that nobody said anything optimistic to me about how these resources might not run out. They might become more abundant because of human ingenuity. They might actually get cheaper rather than more expensive and that it might be possible for us to live higher living standards and actually do less damage to the environment as we do so, that the air might get cleaner, the rivers might get cleaner!

In a debate, Bill Gates pushed back against Ridley’s optimism. Gates argued that worrying about the worst case can help drive a solution.

Ridley doesn’t buy it.

“If you look at where the solutions come from, they come from optimistic people living in rich places, like Steve Jobs, or Archimedes in ancient Greece, or Leonardo in Renaissance Italy. ... It’s the pessimists who are the complacent ones these days, because they’re the ones saying: ‘This is as good as it can get. We can’t make it any better.’”

But we can make it better. All it takes is rule of law and limited government. If government will just stay out of the bar, and stop bossing the patrons around, ideas will meet and mate and produce wonder ful things.

questions and take comments about veterans' services.”

To review, I went back to columns I wrote last spring on the town hall/VA medical center meeting held at the Elks Lodge here in Roswell in May, 2011. “Not much communicating between local veterans and Albuquerque's VA medical center happened over the last few years. Our past con‘presence’ gressional (defeated in last election) held talks in Cruces and ‘around’, but not in Roswell/Artesia. So, 2nd District Congressman Steve Pearce renewed his meetings with Albuquerque VAMC administrators and local veterans.

“Albuquerque VA Medical System was not in the top echelon (quality of care) of the national VA medical care systems 4 or 5 years ago, per AVAMC's CEO George Marnell. This

Wednesday, January 11, 2012

substantiates veterans' allegations made to Marnell's predecessor, Mary Dowling, in an Artesia Town Hall meeting several years ago. Dowling denied the claim there were quality of care issues, which now we know did exist.

Marnell produced several performance graphs which chronologically showed the significant positive improvements under current administration.

“Marnell admitted that accessibility (travel distance to location of care) has been a major challenge for them. They are working on several approaches to improving (the pain) of rural care problems in southern NM. Establishing a VA employees staffed clinic service in Roswell was also mentioned. — After a ‘patient density study’ was perfor med by the VA, it showed Roswell and Taos were the next areas in

N.M. needing better access to health care. Funding for T aos to have a contract facility (has been approved). Funding for Roswell to have a VA staffed facility is awaiting approval and funding.

Local VVA Post Commander Harry Mcgraw asked why Taos ‘up there’ was picked first over Roswell. A veteran behind me grumbled, ‘It's always politics!’

T aos is 112 miles from while Albuquerque, Roswell is 218 miles. Sort of looks like (double) the distance.” Note: To date, nothing on the Roswell service is known.

McGraw brought up the question of funding for the SENM Veterans T ransportation Service (once again). Mar nell of fered that the VA could/would take over van medical transport services. Veterans unanimously agreed that was (not) a viable alter native, given past

“lousy services” provided by the favored VA contractor of van service, the DAV. Note: Nothing has been done on this issue as yet.

Kudos to the Albuquerque VAMC on developing telephone/television medical care, CBOC eye scanning for local diabetic patients and in-home measurement/telephone transmission of blood pressure, blood sugar, oxygen saturation and medical treatment via tele-med for weight loss exercise and nutrition, neurological and mental health services. The use of “Care Teams” is being developed

by Medical Chief of Staff Dr. Meghan Gerety to support the CBOC primary care physicians.

Long distance travel remains the “nine-foot gorilla” in the room! Come to the meeting. Be there, or — progress stops! God bless.

OBITUARIES

B.J. Watkins married Boots McClung on Sept.

27, 1938, and when he took her to Ruidoso shortly thereafter, she remarked, “I think this is the most beautiful place I have ever seen.” Her love of the mountains remained with her throughout her lifetime.

She is survived by her son Bobby Watkins and his wife Denese, of El Paso, Texas; and her daughter Beverly Merritt and her husband Ronnie, of Roswell. Preceding her in death were her husband B.J. Watkins; her brother Charles McClung; and two sisters, Fay Marie McClung and JoAnn Robinson.

Other survivors include four grandchildren, Jackie Witt and her husband Mark, of Roswell, Ron Merritt and his wife Sandra, of Yeso, Bram Watkins and his wife Stacey, and Brandi Brown and her husband Hunter of El Paso; seven great-grandchildren, three great-great-grandchildren; and many nieces and nephews.

Mrs. Watkins worked at various businesses in Roswell and Ruidoso through the years. Many will remember her friendly smile and helpful services.

Her most enjoyable times were spent working up on the mountain at the ski shop, the jewelry shop at Inn of the Mountain Gods and the Jockey Club gate at the Ruidoso Downs Race T rack. She enjoyed the interaction with the many people she met and made many lifelong friends along the way. Boots and B.J. built and ran the Downs Motel in Ruidoso Downs.

Boots wore many hats and touched many hearts, but her greatest loves were the Lord, her husband, her family, dancing, good music, fishing and shopping. Her home was always open to her children’s friends and most of the time there was someone living with them she cared for as one of her own.

Pallbearers will be Ron Merritt Jr., Bram Watkins, Mark Witt, Jerry Jones, Ronnie Perry and Emmitt Hatch. Honorary pallbearers will be Lance Merritt, Don G. Nason and Hunter Brown.

Billy “Bill” Prince

Billy “Bill” D. Prince was born on July 7, 1944, in Roswell, to Johnny and E. Ruth Prince. He married Cynthia Pendergrass on Oct. 18, 1974. They had one son Jeffrey L. Prince.

Bill passed away on Jan. 7, 2012, in Roswell.

Bill is survived by his wife Cindy; his son Jeff and wife Keisha; his grandson Colby Z. Prince; and granddaughter Aubrey L. Prince.

He is also survived by his brothers, Bobby Sparks (Betty), of Sacramento, Calif.; Jimmy Prince (Phyllis), of Hollis, Okla.; and sister, Yvonne Wilton (Wayne), of Mayfield, Ky.; brothers-in-law, Nolan Redding of Kentucky, Buddy Pendergrass (Debby), of Roswell; sisters-in-law, Modell Sparks, of Guyman, Okla., and Jana Lamontine (Steve), of Roswell; and his mother -in-law Juanita Whitaker, of Roswell. Bill is also survived by several nephews and nieces.

Bill was preceded in death by his parents Johnny and Ruth Prince; his brother, Ferrell Sparks; sister, Betty Redding; and nephew, Ross Lamontine.

Bill retired from his position as an equipment operator for the NM Department of Transportation in 2007.

He fulfilled his retirement dream of building a small “hunting shack” in the mountains. He and Cindy enjoyed many good times at the cabin. Sadly, Bill did not live long enough to complete his last project at the cabin, a deck upon which he and his friend, Ken, could sit on and rock in their rocking chairs.

When Bill wasn’t in the mountains, he spent time with his grandchildren, Colby and Aubrey, going to the park and helping with their latest project, raising chicks. Bill served his

Roswell Daily Record country in the U.S. Army from 1970-1972. He received the Bronze Star, Meritorious Achievement in ground operation against hostile forces.

The family would like to express special thanks to Doctors Hamid and Amna Feroze; Sara and the ladies from Covenant in Roswell; Dr. Mangold and the team of doctors from Covenant Hospital in Lubbock, Texas; and, to all of the special care nurses who took such good care of Bill during his last illness.

The family requests that in lieu of flowers donations be made to the Ross A. Lamontine Memorial Scholarship fund, Roswell High School, 500 W. Hobbs St., Roswell, NM 88203, or to the charity of their choice.

Services will be held at Anderson-Bethany Funeral Home on Thursday, Jan. 12, 2012, at 11 a.m., followed by military services at South Park Cemetery.

Services will be officiated by the Revs. Jack Ferguson and Matt Brooks. Pallbearers are nephews, Terry Sparks, Randy Prince, Mike Prince, T im Prince and friends, Cruz Zavala and Robert Scribner. Honorary pallbearers are Ken Hough, Colby Prince, Aubrey Prince, Lee Lamontine and Ben Pendergrass.

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS RAIDERS FIRE HUE JACKSON

ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) — The Oakland Raiders fired coach Hue Jackson on Tuesday after just one season at the helm in the first major move since Reggie McKenzie was hired as general manager.

The decision to get rid of Jackson came four days after the team announced the hiring of McKenzie as the team’s first general manager since the death of longtime owner Al Davis in October. McKenzie was formally introduced later Tuesday.

The move marks a rapid fall for Jackson, who was in charge of personnel decisions and coaching after Davis died of heart failure on Oct. 8.

Jackson made the trade for quarterback Carson Palmer after starter Jason Campbell broke his collarbone, costing the Raiders a 2012 first-round draft pick and a conditional 2013 second-rounder.

While Palmer showed signs of giving the Raiders a big-time quarterback, he was unable to get Oakland to the playoffs for the first time since 2002, raising questions about how effective that trade was.

After starting the season 7-4, the Raiders lost four of their final five games to mark their ninth straight season without a winning record or a playoff berth. A late-game collapse at home to Detroit on Dec. 18 and a 38-26 loss to San Diego at home in the season finale did in the Raiders and ultimately Jackson.

at the game was the difference for his team.

“I think we were a little bit deeper than Hagerman was, but, of course, they didn’t have Jessie (Rodriguez) tonight,” he said. “I think having the corps here really helped us.

That is the thing with (Hagerman) coach (Anthony) Mestas; you have kids that hadn’t played a certain position and put him in an environment like this, I think that was worth seven or eight points. That was the difference.”

Mestas agreed with his coaching counterpart, but said that it was a great opportunity for his team to play in such an electric atmosphere.

“That (environment) was amazing,” he said. “I told the kids before the game that not many teams in one year get to play in The Pit and in an environment like this. The Cahoon Crazies were out tonight. They played a big part.

“When you come from a gym where there isn’t anyone in there and then when you walk out and play and that same gym is full of people, that is a great environment for the kids to play in.”

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

The Roswell boys basketball team’s win over Lovington on Tuesday can be described in one simple and succinct sentence.

Roswell pressed, Lovington turned it over and Roswell scored.

That series of events seemed to repeat itself more than Bill Murray’s Feb. 2 in the 1993 classic “Groundhog Day.” In fact, that series repeated itself 18 different times as Roswell captured a 76-48 win over the visiting Wildcats at the Coyote Den. “We had some breakdowns in the manto-man, but with the run-and-jump, I thought (the kids) played well,” Roswell coach Britt Cooper said.

“Our defense churns the offense. We’ve got to get better in half-court sets, but if they can (put together runs by forcing turnovers), then we’re all right.”

The most important run came early in the second quarter.

Lovington had closed to within 21-20 about a minute and a half into the quarter, but less than two minutes later, the Wildcats were all but out of the game.

Roswell forced four straight turnovers by

the Wildcats, which fueled a 13-0 run that saw five different Coyotes score.

Anthony Olguin opened the run with a bucket off a feed from Luis Arenivas. Marquel Warner followed with a deuce, Fernando Lujan then scored the next five, Alex Olesinski added a bucket next and Cesar Nava capped the run off an assist from Warner.

In a span of 1:42, Roswell’s lead went from 21-20 to 34-20 and Lovington could never recover.

Roswell built its lead to 18 by the break and led by as many as 30 on three different ocassions in the fourth en route to the win.

The win pushed Roswell to 11-0 on the year, something Cooper said he didn’t exactly envision with such a young team.

“Probably not exactly,” he said. “I thought we had a chance to be pretty good. We’re still too up and down for my liking, but, even when we’re not playing as well as we think we should be, we’re putting people away pretty handily.”

The one major thing an 11-0 start will do for a young team is help build confidence.

“The kids expect to win,” Cooper said.

“They think they’re supposed to win. And, I

Tebow: Maybe he isn’t so easy to beat Briefs: GHS

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Bury the blueprints on how to thwart Tim Tebow. He can beat you with his arm as well as his legs.

The formula up until last weekend was to stack the box and dare him to beat you with all those errant passes.

But coming off his worst game as a pro, the most maligned quarterback in football morphed into a conventional quarterback Sunday in snapping out of a three-game funk and sending the mighty Pittsburgh Steelers to an early playoff exit.

Tebow, whose record-setting redemption kept Denver’s thrilling roller coaster of a season roaring right along, is more challenging than ever to defend. So, the topseeded New England Patriots are preparing for deep passes as much as the Broncos’ bothersome readoption offense.

“They’re a tough team to prepare for because they do a lot of different things,” Patriots coach Bill Belichick said. “There aren’t really any other teams like them in the league, so there’s no other team you can really draw that experience from. What they do offensively is a little bit unique.”

After relying all season on the league’s best ground game, Tebow turned into an Aaron RodgersDrew Brees-Tom Brady lookalike by throwing for 316 yards against the league’s No. 1 defense in his first playoff appearance.

It wasn’t just his 80-yard bullet to Demaryius Thomas, which

Broncos quarterback Tim Tebow throws a pass during a team practice, Tuesday. Tebow and the Broncos are scheduled to play the New England Patriots in an AFC divisional playoff game on Saturday. allowed the Broncos to beat the Steelers 29-23 on the first play of overtime. In the second quarter, Tebow completed four passes of 30 yards or better, something that hadn’t been done in the NFL in half a century.

Belichick insists this isn’t Tebow 2.0, however.

“I think he’s done a lot of those things all year,” Belichick said. “He had a great game against Pittsburgh, no doubt about it. But he’s played well throughout the season, whether it be managing the team, making decisions, running the ball, throwing the ball, scrambling,

any and all of the above. He’s a good football player.”

One who’s now multidimensional.

At John Elway’s urging, Tebow was more aggressive Sunday, heeding his boss’s advice to “pull the trigger.”

“Yeah, I think I did play pretty aggressive in the game,” Tebow said Tuesday after the Broncos returned to work following their exhilarating weekend win. “We were playing a very good team, See TEBOW, Page B2

Goddard held a two-point lead heading into the fourth quarter, but couldn’t hold it in a 49-40 loss to Lovington on Tuesday.

The Rockets (4-12) led 1411 after the first quarter and 26-20 at the half.

Lovington battled back to within two by the end of the third and scored 20 points in the fourth quarter to get the win.

Goddard coach Greg Torres said that it was disappointing to let the game slip away.

“I just felt like, mentally, we let down and they had people step up and carry them in that fourth quarter,” he said.

“It seems like they didn’t break down as much. It is just disappointing that we let it slip away.”

Abbie Blach led Goddard with 19 points.

very good defense. And you have to be willing to take some chances to make some big plays against them, because they have so many good players and so many good guys that are rushing, getting to the quarterback. And the offensive line did a great job and the receivers stepped up and made huge plays.”

The Broncos (9-8) need an encore performance to beat the heavily favored and well-rested Patriots (13-3).

The Colts grew their lead to 11 midway through the second quarter with a 3-pointer from Petross.

Mayweather calls out Pacquiao on Twitter

Floyd Mayweather Jr. has taken his quest for a fight with Manny Pacquiao to Twitter.

The unbeaten Mayweather publicly challenged and taunted the Filipino superstar on Tuesday, daring Pacquiao to meet him May 5 in Las Vegas.

“Manny Pacquiao I’m calling you out let’s fight May 5th and give the world what they want to see,” Mayweather tweeted.

Moments later, Mayweather tweeted: “My Jail Sentence was pushed back because the date was locked in. Step up Punk.”

Mayweather is available for a fight in May at the MGM Grand Garden after a judge agreed last week to postpone his jail sentence in a domestic violence case until June. Mayweather was sentenced to 87 days in jail, but likely will serve less time.

Mayweather and Pacquiao are boxing’s top two stars, and they have circled each other warily for more than two years. Both have said they’re eager to fight, yet still haven’t reached a deal for what’s likely to be the most lucrative bout in boxing history.

While Pacquiao appeared to be more eager for the fight when the two first began verbally sparring in 2009, Mayweather has taken the lead in recent months, stepping up his campaign since Pacquiao’s narrow win over Juan Manuel Marquez last November.

Mayweather’s tweets appear to put the megafight’s future in Pacquiao’s hands —

“It was big for us because in this league, you have to keep people off balance,” wide receiver Eddie Royal said. “Before last week, people knew they had to stop the run. Stop the run and shut down our of fense. But now, they have to second-guess themselves, ‘Oh, they can throw the ball and be explosive and make some pass plays.”‘ It was the Broncos’ reliance on the run that sold the play-fake on the first snap of overtime — they had rushed on 23 of 25 first downs up to that point.

“It’s always good to see us get the big passes, especially because everyone says we can’t throw the ball,” said tailback Willis McGahee, who had “I was proud of the kids,” he said. “We played really well. We didn’t have Jessie in the game and we could have laid down and said we are done, but we didn’t.”

NMMI quickly regained momentum at the start of the second half, scoring the first five points.

The Bobcats would battle back and climb to within four in the fourth quarter after Ramos hit two from the charity stripe, but a Weingardt bucket on the next NMMI possession pushed the lead to six and the Bobcats didn’t get closer than five points the rest of the way. and a decision likely will be made soon.

Top Rank promoter Bob Arum traveled to the Philippines this week to meet with Pacquiao, planning to choose the eight-division champion’s next opponent. Arum, who has repeatedly said Mayweather won’t actually agree to fight Pacquiao because he fears losing, has a list of candidates including Marquez, Miguel Cotto, Lamont Peterson and Timothy Bradley Jr. for Pacquiao’s next bout.

Arum also has suggested Pacquiao might not be ready to prepare for a fight in May because of a facial cut from his win over Marquez. Mayweather’s camp has dismissed that notion as subterfuge, saying cuts rarely require several months to heal.

Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, whose company has promoted Mayweather’s last five fights, has suggested Mayweather’s Cinco de Mayo fight could be against popular 154-pound Mexican champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez or lightweight champion Robert Guerrero, a MexicanAmerican from the Bay Area, if he can’t make a deal with Pacquiao.

But if Mayweather and Pacquiao intend to make their long-awaited fight, both sides know they must do it quickly, since a promotion of that size would require several months of preparation.

Mayweather controls his own Twitter feed, which is often filled with pictures of his fiancie and braggadocio about his gambling exploits. On Monday night, he tweeted a photo of a betting slip, claiming he won $400,000 on the BCS title game.

TV ratings for BCS title game down from last year

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A field goalfilled shutout couldn’t compete with a thrilling finish for television viewers.

TV ratings dipped for this year’s BCS title game, Alabama’s 21-0 win in a rematch against Southeastern Conference rival LSU. The Crimson Tide went up 15-0 late in the third quarter on five field goals while the Tigers’ offense struggled to even cross midfield.

A year ago, Auburn drove for a winning field goal on the final play to beat Oregon 22-19.

Monday’s game on ESPN earned a 14.0 rating, down 8 percent from last year. It’s the third-lowest rating of the 14 BCS title games, beating only a 13.9 for MiamiNebraska in 2002 and a 13.7 for Southern California-Oklahoma in 2005.

The average of 24.2 million viewers is the second-largest audience in cable history behind the 2011 title game. The BCS championship moved to cable last year.

Ratings measure the percentage of all homes with televisions tuned into a program. The game earned a 16.2 fast national rating among households that get ESPN. Eight BCS title games have drawn a rating of more than that for all homes.

AP source: Heisman Trophy winner RG3 is going pro

Heisman Trophy winner Robert Griffin III has decided to enter the NFL draft.

The exciting dual-threat quarterback is bypassing his senior season at Baylor and is projected to be one of the top picks in April.

implored the Broncos to improve their passing attack to enhance an already stout ground game.

The Broncos’ for mula during their eight wins under Tebow had been to play stout defense and spectacular on special teams to keep the grind-itout offense within striking distance until Tebow could pull of f his last-minute magic.

Now, they’re mixing in explosive plays.

And Tebow doesn’t have to be pinpoint with his passes if the safeties come up and cornerbacks cover the receivers 1-on-1 because his reads will be simpler. He’ll have more margin for error if players such as Thomas, who has great hands, have more room to maneuver and fewer defensive backs to Carrasco said that he was proud of his team’s progress.

“I was proud of the progress we made, but we did play like we were off for a month,” he said.

“I was disappointed with a couple of things, but I think we took a step in the right direction. We just have to get better every time out.”

Trujillo led NMMI (3-6) with 16 points, while Petross and Weingardt corralled six rebounds each.

“We were just waiting for him to come out and play the way we knew he could and show everybody,” Royal said.

Eric Decker, who sprained his left knee on the first play of the second quarter last week, isn’t expected to play against the Patriots.

Although he was the Broncos’ best receiver in the regular season, with 44 catches for 612 yards and eight touchdowns, half his scores came with Kyle Orton at quarterback.

Tebow’s top target was actually Thomas, who caught every one of his 32 receptions for 551 yards and four TDs from the lefty.

agent.

A person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press that Griffin opted to declare for the draft. The person spoke Tuesday night on condition of anonymity because the quarterback had not yet made an official announcement.

Baylor officials had indicated this week the possibility of a news conference on campus as early as Wednesday. There was still nothing officially scheduled Tuesday night.

Griffin played 41 games during his record-setting career at Baylor. He completed 800 of 1,192 passes (67 percent) for 10,366 yards with 78 touchdowns and 17 interceptions, along with 2,254 yards and 33 TDs rushing.

He was the nation’s most efficient passer this season, when he completed 291 of 402 passes (72 percent) for 4,293 yards and 37 TDs with only six interceptions. He also ran for 699 yards and 10 more touchdowns.

The Bears matched a school record with 10 wins and closed the season with a sixgame winning streak, including a recordbreaking 67-56 victory over Washington in the Alamo Bowl for their first bowl victory since 1992. They were 13th in The Associated Press Top 25 released Tuesday, the first time they were ranked in the final poll since 1986.

Griffin played this season as a fourthyear junior. He had another season of eligibility remaining at Baylor because he got a medical redshirt after he tore the ACL in his right knee in the third game of the 2009 season.

During an interview with the AP last month, Griffin said he wouldn’t be facing a decision on whether to stay for another season had he not gotten hurt two years ago.

“If I come back, people would be like why. If I leave, people at Baylor will be like why,” Griffin said then. “So it’s a tough decision.”

But Griffin’s draft stock rose dramatically this season, especially during the Bears’ last six wins. Griffin and Stanford’s Andrew Luck, the Heisman runner-up, are likely to be the first two quarterbacks selected.

Baylor swept their four November games, including overcoming its biggest fourth-quarter deficit ever with Griffin throwing three TDs before winning in overtime at Kansas. The Bears also beat Oklahoma for the first time, with Griffin throwing for 479 yards and four touchdowns, including the game-winner with 8 seconds left that came right after Oklahoma had overcome a twoTD deficit to tie the game in the final minute.

AP source: Selig to be offered contract extension

NEW YORK (AP) — Baseball owners say Commissioner Bud Selig will be offered a contract extension at this week’s meetings in Phoenix.

ESPN.com first reported that Selig will be offered an additional term when owners meet Wednesday and Thursday in Scottsdale, Ariz. Two owners, speaking on condition of anonymity so as not to attract criticism from Selig, told The Associated Press on Tuesday that a new term will be proposed.

Owners also intend to approve the completion of the sale of the San Diego Padres from John Moores to Jeff Moorad Selig has been commissioner since September 1992 and would surpass Kenesaw Mountain Landis for longest tenure in September 2016. Selig repeatedly has said he intends to retire in December but also admits almost no one believes him.

Selig, who turns 78 in July, became acting commissioner in September 1992, when clubs forced out Fay Vincent. After saying he wouldn’t take the job, Selig was elected to a five-year term as permanent commissioner in 1998 and gave up running the Milwaukee Brewers, the team he bought in 1970 and his family sold in 2005.

Owners voted in November 2001 to extend his term through 2006, then voted in August 2004 to extend it through 2009.

Although he first said in 2006 that he intended to retire at the end of that term, in January 2008 he accepted an extension through 2012.

Before Game 7 of the World Series in October, Selig again said he planned to leave this year but admitted few thought he would. Sitting in the front row of the news conference room, Sue Selig nodded her head.

“Starting with my wife, I’m happy or sad to say, but she’s somewhat skeptical,” he said.

Jaguars hire Mike Mularkey as head coach

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — The Jacksonville Jaguars have hired Atlanta Falcons offensive coordinator Mike Mularkey as head coach, a move they hope will help improve the league’s worst offense.

The team plans to introduce Mularkey at a news conference Wednesday. The Florida Times-Union first reported the hire.

Mularkey’s Falcons managed only two points in a wild-card loss to the New York Giants on Sunday. Nonetheless, his long relationship with Jaguars general manager Gene Smith made him a front-runner from the beginning of the search.

He previously was a head coach with Buffalo, where he went 14-18 before being fired after the 2005 season. He has been Atlanta’s offensive coordinator since 2008, helping mentor quarterback Matt Ryan.

The Jaguars hope he can do the same with Blaine Gabbert, who struggled in his first season.

The hire comes less than a week after new owner Shahid Khan officially took over the franchise. Khan made it clear he wanted an offensive-minded coach to turn around a franchise that has missed the playoffs 10 times in the last 12 years.

Even though the Jaguars had the worst offense in the league, Smith and Khan believe they are close to piecing together a playoff-caliber roster that features running back Maurice Jones-Drew, tight end Marcedes Lewis and a defense that ranked sixth in the NFL despite several key injuries down the stretch.

Mularkey will be tasked with getting it done.

He could serve as offensive coordinator as well. His biggest task will be locking down a defensive coordinator. The Jaguars would like to bring back Mel Tucker, who interviewed for the defensive coordinator position in Minnesota, and maybe several of his defensive assistants.

The Jaguars went 5-11 this season, which was one of the most tumultuous years in franchise history.

The Jaguars released starting quarterback David Garrard five days before the opener, switched QBs again two weeks later and matched the worst start in franchise history (1-5). Then-owner Wayne Weaver fired coach Jack Del Rio on the same late November day that he announced he was selling the team.

Tucker took over and made significant changes, cutting starting receiver Jason Hill, firing receivers coach Johnny Cox and reassigning quarterbacks coach Mike Sheppard.

The Jaguars went 2-3 under Tucker, not enough for him to get the full-time job.

Tucker, Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator Rob Chudzinski and New York Jets offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer were interviewed for the position. Denver’s Mike McCoy also was expected to be interviewed, but Mularkey was offered the job Tuesday.

Although many outsiders called Jacksonville the least desirable of the open NFL jobs, Mularkey has some building blocks.

Jones-Drew bounced back from a knee injury in 2010 to break the franchise’s single-season rushing record with 1,606 yards, which also led the league. His accomplishment was even more impressive considering the Jaguars had the NFL’s worst passing offense.

Only three others since 1978 — New Orleans’ George Rogers in 1981, Los Angeles’ Eric Dickerson in 1986 and Baltimore’s Jamal Lewis in 2003 — won the rushing title on a team ranked last in passing.

Jones-Drew routinely faced stacked lines and run blitzes. Nonetheless, he averaged 100 yards a game. He finished with 1,980 yards from scrimmage, second in the league behind Baltimore’s Ray Rice, and accounted for 47.7 percent of Jacksonville’s offense.

But in a passing league, the Jaguars realize they need more. They have to get

In an interesting twist, former Broncos coach Josh McDaniels, who took a chance by drafting both Thomas and Tebow in the first round two years ago, has rejoined the Patriots’ staff in time to help them try to end Denver’s season.

“You know, he’s a very good coach and I wish him nothing but the best, and I’m very thankful for him having the confidence in drafting me,” Tebow said.

“But I’m very excited about the coaches that we have here.”

Notes: With Decker down, the Broncos promoted wide receiver D’Andre Goodwin from their practice squad Tuesday and placed fullback Spencer Larsen (knee) on IR. killed us. We didn’t do well in the second half at all.”

Mason Miller led Gateway with 15 points, while Andrew Meeks chipped in with eight.

Men’s basketball

Trinidad State 92, NMMI 72 TRINIDAD, Colo. — Bronco coach Sean Schooley said his team played its “worst” game of the year and fell to 7-7 on the year, Tuesday.

“We played the worst game we played all year,” Schooley said. “We turned it over too much, we did not shoot it well and we didn’t defend. It was just a bad night all the way around.”

No statistics were available at press time.

Lewis back to Pro Bowl form and need to get Gabbert better prepared to handle the most important position in football.

A first-round pick in 2006, Lewis had 58 catches for 700 yards and 10 touchdowns in 2010 and was rewarded with a five-year, $35 million contract that included $17 million guaranteed. But he had 39 receptions for a team-high 460 yards this season, including just two catches in the red zone and no scores.

Gabbert completed 50.8 percent of his passes for 2,214 yards, with 12 touchdowns and 11 interceptions. He was sacked 40 times and lost five of his 12 fumbles. His most troubling trait was pocket presence. Gabbert often seemed scared under the slightest pressure and struggled all season with his accuracy, especially on short throws.

The problem with teenage boys getting involved with Internet porn is it gives them an unrealistic expectation of how regular, normal women look and act. Although you don’t want to lose him, becoming more involved could lead to his wanting to try out his sexual fantasies with you — and if you go along with it, it will land you in a world of trouble. The smart thing to do is end this relationship NOW. #####

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: My daughter “Denise’s” fiance is 12 years older than she is and still lives with his parents. “Leo” is turning Denise into his mother.

I first noticed it when she cut her beautiful long hair short and in the same style as his mother. Now her lipstick shade is the same as Leo’s mother’s as well as her glasses and clothing.

At a recent gathering I remarked to Leo, “Wow, Denise looks more like YOUR mother than she does me.”

After that, our relationship soured.

Apparently, he didn’t like my observation. Was I wrong?

CREEPED OUT IN CALIFORNIA

DEAR ABBY: I have been dating “Kyle” for more than six months, but I have loved him for more than two years. I always thought we had a wonderful relationship and that Kyle was a sweet, innocent guy. Well, he just confided to me that he has an Internet porn addiction! I’m very hurt by this and don’t want to lose him. What should I do?

(By the way, we’re both 14.)

INNOCENT TEEN IN MICHIGAN

DEAR INNOCENT TEEN: You should urge Kyle to get help for his addiction. Addiction, by definition, is behavior that is compulsive and out of control.

Jumble

COMICS

DEAR CREEPED OUT: No. But you may have said it to the wrong person. You should have said it to your daughter, who may be doing it because she thinks Leo’s mother has great taste. Denise could also be consciously or unconsciously doing this to please him.

There’s an old song, “I Want a Girl Just Like the Girl That Married Dear Old Dad.” Many men idealize their mothers, and it may be a reason why Leo still lives with his parents. #####

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I are empty nesters. We both work and live far from our kids and grandkids. I have wanted to move closer to them, but I also understand we need to meet our goals for a secure retirement.

The problem is, I’m lonely and I think my husband is, too. We work long hours and spend our weekends doing chores. My solution to help myself feel better is to get a dog. My husband, however, doesn’t want one.

He wants to wait until “later” — whenever that is. I think a pet would make me leave work earlier and force both of us to get out of the house. I know there are expenses involved, but I’m willing to make sacrifices.

DEAR PINING: Before embarking on a “pet” project, don’t you think you should first find out what may be causing your husband’s behavior? While a dog could work wonders and help you both be more active, between his job and the weekend chores, taking a puppy to obedience training may be too much for him. If he’s not up to it, would YOU be willing to shoulder that task — and the walking, feeding, grooming and cleaning up?

An energetic puppy can be a lot to handle. Would you consider adopting an older dog, or fostering one that needs a temporary home? I don’t recommend bringing a dog into your lives unless your husband agrees.

And if he doesn’t, please consider volunteering a few days a month at an animal shelter or pet rescue kennel.

Am I being unreasonable or silly? I want my husband to be a part of raising a pet and, perhaps, participate in some obedience training. I’m trying my best to persuade him without being a nag, but I’m beginning to feel like a little kid who’s begging “Daddy” for a puppy. I’d appreciate some advice.

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

Dear Readers: Did you know there are certain FOODS seniors should avoid because of health risks? According to the Food and Drug Administration website (www.fda.gov), if you are a senior or care for a senior, you might not realize that you need to be extra cautious about: * Raw sprouts, such as alfalfa, clover and radishes. * Refrigerated pates or meat spreads. * Refrigerated smoked seafood, unless it is an ingredient in a cooked dish like a casserole. * Raw or unpasteurized milk and soft cheeses like feta, brie, Camembert and Mexican-style (which I love!). * Raw or lightly cooked egg, or egg products containing raw eggs, such as salad dressings, cookie or cake batter, sauces or drinks like eggnog. * Hot dogs and luncheon meats, unless they are reheated to steaming-hot. * Unpasteurized or untreated fruit or vegetable juice.

Additionally, no raw meat, poultry, raw fin fish or shellfish should be consumed. You can go to the FDA’s website (or ask your health-care provider for suggestions) for more important information on food safety for everyone in your household!

SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 78279-5000 Fax: 210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise.com ##### Dear Readers: Is spaghetti squash a vegetable or a funky type of pasta? How well do you know your veggies? It’s a winter squash!

A very healthy choice if you want to cut calories but eat well, 1 cup of cooked spaghetti squash, with no salt added, contains approximately 42 calories. This squash is high in fiber and can be prepared any number of different ways: baked, boiled, microwaved or even in a slow cooker.

This squash can be found year round, but fall and winter are its peak seasons. It keeps well at room temperature and can be stored in the freezer after cooking.

After cooking, scrape the meaty strands of squash out of the shell with a fork and then be creative with your favorite toppings. Try substituting these spaghettilike strands in any of your favorite pasta dishes and serve with butter, garlic, shredded cheese or a favorite sauce.

Heloise P.S.: I love it cold and dressed with a little oil and vinegar. #####

The Wizard of Id

Dear Heloise: I buy three pounds or more of ground beef and cook it all, making sure to break it up using a fork. I add chopped onion and green peppers, then put it into small containers and freeze. Later, this can be added to sauces for pasta and chili.

Makes a fast, instant meal!

The Ancient Maya

The pyramid at Chichen Itza in Mexico was built for the serpent god Kukulcan. The Maya believed that when he returned each spring, his tail raised the winds and swept the earth clean before the coming rains.

In this piece of art, a Mayan priest faces the sunrise on top of the pyramid at the ancient city of Tikal.

The pyramids at Mayan cities towered above the rainforest. They were built as observatories to tell the date from the position of the sun.

From the top of the pyramids, priests could also map the motions of Venus. Venus was even more important to the Maya than the sun for predicting rainfall.

They thought Venus was really their god Kukulcan (KOO-kuhl-kahn).

Have you been hearing stories that the ancient Maya predicted the world would end this year? Don’t worry.

They did no such thing. The 2012 prophecies are just made-up stories.

The Maya had an advanced civilization in the area of Mexico and Central America about 2,000 years ago. They were astronomers who developed an incredible calendar to keep track of events over many thousands of years.

It just so happens that this calendar begins a new cycle in 2012, as our calendar did in the year 2000. People are having fun saying this means the end of the world. But it just means that the calendar passed a milestone.

The Mini Page talked with Dr. Carolyn Sumners at the Houston Museum of Natural Science to learn more about the real story.

Amazing scientists

Pyramids

The Maya developed one of the most complex civilizations of the ancient world. They were astronomers with an advanced system of writing.

Unlike many other ancient people, they developed in isolation (eyesuh-LAY-shun), or away from other civilizations. Other ancient cultures, such as the Egyptians and Greeks, learned a lot from other peoples. The Maya had to discover all on their own.

They built great structures without metal tools, beasts of burden*, or vehicles with wheels, such as carts.

The Maya built great pyramids that were lined up to follow the movements of the sun. For example, on the shortest day of the year, or the winter solstice (SOHL-stis), the sun rose at a certain spot over a pyramid temple.

Priests knew that from that day forward, the sun would rise a bit to the north each day.

When the sun finally rose directly to the north of the pyramid, the rains would come. Other pyramids were lined up with the setting sun. They were all built to predict the rains.

*Beasts of burden are big animals tame enough to help people carry heavy loads.

Birthdate: 5-16-92 Hometown: Markham, Ontario, Canada

When watching Carolina Hurricane Jeff Skinner skate, blow by defenders and handle the puck, it’s hard to believe he’s still a teenager.

Months away from celebrating his 20th birthday, Skinner is as cool as the ice beneath his feet and flashes the skill of a veteran. Last year — at age 18 — he became the youngest NHL Rookie of the Year winner and the youngest to play in an All-Star Game.

But if you put a song to his game, it would have a rock ‘n’ roll beat. And this year the beat goes on with more goals and assists.

Mayan Calendars Counting by 20s The Maya used a system of 20 to count. This number was based on the number of fingers and toes people have. (We base our number system on 10.) Mayan calendars were also based on the number 20.

Calendars The Maya used two different calendars throughout the year.

One calendar gave the times to perform rituals. Today, this kind of calendar could help us keep track of events like planting and harvesting crops.

The Mayan ritual calendar covered DAYS )T WAS MADE UP OF numbers and 20 names.

Their second calendar was a yearLONG CALENDAR MADE UP OF DAYS It was divided into 18 months of 20 days each. The Maya added five extra days to finish off the year.

The Maya used this calendar to help them keep track of events like birthdays and holidays.

The Maya joined their two short calendars to form a third calendar that went about 52 years. It was designed to cover one person’s lifetime. The two calendars worked together with a kind of gear system. This new calendar was called the Calendar Round.

Maya time periods

Long Count

Much like we divide our calendars into days, years and centuries, the Maya had their own time periods. s A kin DAY s A winal DAYS s A tun NEARLY A YEAR s A katun ALMOST YEARS s A baktun JUST OVER YEARS The Maya celebrated the beginning of katuns and baktuns.

The Maya recorded long periods of time in a Long Count calendar. They used the Long Count to tell about their history and to tell the future.

Next week, The Mini Page is about A.A. Milne, the author of “Winnie the Pooh.�

The city of Uxmal (USHmal) was founded to store rain during the dry season. The Maya built giant cisterns (SISterns), or tanks, to store rainwater. The pyramid there was designed so that during the dry season, the shadows would climb up the pyramid as the days grew longer. In two 20-day months, the sun would shine directly overhead at noon. After that, the rains would come.

Destroying their environment

The Maya recorded important history and predictions in books and on buildings. Unfortunately, when the Spanish discovered the Mayas’ abandoned cities, they burned most of the books. Much of what we know is from writing on buildings.

One of three surviving books is the Dresden Codex. A codex +/% DEKS is an ancient book manuscript.

A picture of a giant monster with sky symbols on its body is on the last page of the Dresden Codex. Water is gushing from its mouth.

From the past to the future

The Maya cut down thousands of trees to burn in ovens to make a special coating for their pyramids.

They also cut down rainforests to create more farmland for their growing population.

Once the trees were cut down, rain patterns changed and Mayan cities were in more danger from drought.

At the height of their civilization, the Maya faced the worst drought in thousands of years. People starved.

Within 100 years, the Maya abandoned their wonderful cities and moved back into the rainforests.

By the time the Spanish arrived hundreds of years later, the Mayan cities were long abandoned and overgrown.

The Mayans were not even able to predict the end of their own civilization, much less the end of the world.
