Unresolved school bullying angers parents Vol. 124, No. 13 75¢ Daily / $1.25 Sunday

Editor’s Note: Names of juveniles have been changed to protect the students’ identities.

BY DYLANNE PETROS RECORD STAFF WRITER

While there may be an anti-bullying program set up in the Roswell Independent School District, Superintendent Tom Burris was unaware of bullying during the first semester at Berrendo Elementary School, until informed Wednesday by the Daily Record.

One second-grade student, Michael, was bullied by a peer, Daniel, said Michael’s mother Natasha

Moorhead. But, another second-grade student was also bullying Daniel, said Ashley Rogers, Daniel’s mother.

The bullying started with nasty name-calling, Moorhead said. “(We) told our son ‘stay away from him. We don’t want you playing on the playground with him. Leave him be,’” Moorhead said.

Although Michael left Daniel alone, the bullying escalated into pencil stabbings, biting, threatening and pinching so hard blood was drawn, according to a school incident report Moorhead gave to the Daily Record.

Worried for their son, Moorhead and her husband went to Berrendo Elementary School and spoke with the principal, Bea Harris, who said school officials were aware of the situation.

Harris assured Moorhead and her husband the school was taking care of the situation, Moorhead said.

When contacted by the Daily Record, Harris did not comment and said the newspaper would need to contact Burris.

Although Moorhead said she spoke with Harris, she told the Daily Record nothing has been done to fix the bullying.

Slippin’ and slidin’

“It has escalated,” she said.

When bullying occurs in the school, Burris said nothing can be done until faculty is aware of it.

“No. 1 is, do we know that this is going on?” Burris asked. “Have we been informed by the kids? If I knew it was going on, I would address it.”

The first time the school hears about bullying, there should be a conversation with a counselor that was placed in the schools after the Berrendo Middle School shooting, Burris said.

The slide on the playground across from Missouri Avenue Elementary School was extra special slippery Wednesday morning after a dusting of snow Tuesday night. Flurries continued throughout the day as temperatures stayed in the 30s.

Warmer weather is predicted for the weekend, with an expected high of 61 degrees on Saturday.

“If they get disciplined in the home they will behave in school and in public,” Doynes said.

ALBUQUERQUE — Albert Johnny Mondragon, 38, of Roswell, pleaded guilty Wednesday in federal court in Las Cruces to trafficking methamphetamine in Lea County.

Mondragon was arrested on federal charges in Roswell on May 27, 2014, based on a criminal complaint charging him with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute. According to the complaint, Mondragon committed the offense on March 7, 2014, in Hobbs.

Mondragon subsequently was charged in a two-count indictment with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute and being a felon in possession of a firearm. Count 1 of the indictment alleged that on March 7. Mondragon possessed with intent to distribute methamphetamine in Lea County. Count 2

See SLURS, Page A3

charged Mondragon with being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition.

On Wednesday, Mondragon pled guilty to Count 1 of the indictment charging him with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute. In entering the guilty plea, Mondragon admitted that he was stopped by officers in Hobbs on March 7. He further admitted telling the officers that he had approximately half a pound of methamphetamine in the back of his vehicle. When the officers searched the vehicle, they found 223 grams of methamphetamine.

At sentencing, Mondragon faces a term of imprisonment of not less than five years and not more than 40 years. He remains detained pending a sentencing hearing which has yet to be scheduled.

Heroin trafficking kingpin gets 20-year sentence in federal prison SUBMITTED BY U.S. JUSTICE DEPARTMENT

ALBUQUERQUE — U.S. Attorney Damon P. Martinez and Special Agent in Charge Will R. Glaspy of the DEA’s El Paso Field Division announced that Miguel Bustamante-Conchas, 39, was sentenced Tuesday afternoon to 20 years in federal prison for his heroin trafficking conviction. He also was ordered to pay a $100,000 fine.

Bustamante-Conchas is a legal permanent resident from Mexico who resides in Albuquerque. He will be deported after completing his prison sentence.

“New Mexico’s opioid addiction and overdose death rates have been at or near the top of the national scale for years,” said U.S. Attorney Damon P. Martinez. “Under our recently announced HOPE Initiative, we will take on this epidemic by focusing our investigative and prosecutorial resources on significant heroin traffickers while supporting expanded treatment options for those struggling with the disease of addiction.”

“The sentencing of Miguel Bustamante-Conchas exemplifies DEA’s relentless commitment to keep dangerous drugs and those who traffic them off of our streets. DEA contin-

ues to focus on the drug trafficking organizations that spread this kind of poison in central and northern New Mexico,” said DEA Special Agent in Charge Will Glaspy. “Let this not only be an example, but also a warning to those who think they can go unnoticed. One day, we will knock on your door and you too will face the same fate as Bustamante-Conchas.”

Bustamante-Conchas was one of seven men arrested in June 2013 on federal narcotics trafficking charges as a result of a 15-month multiagency investigation targeting heroin traffickers operating out of Albuquerque’s Northeast Heights, an area that has experienced a growing, widespread heroin abuse problem among teens and young adults in recent years. More than 25 pounds of heroin were seized during the course of the investigation.

Two indictments were filed as a result of the investigation. Bustamante-Conchas and four other men were charged in one indictment while two others were charged in a second indictment. The other six defendants entered guilty pleas to heroin trafficking charges while Bustamante-Conchas elected to proceed to trial on a three-count superseding indictment charging him with (1) conspiracy to

Wednesday on a charge of possession of drug paraphernalia.

The owner of the TKO Vapor kiosk at the Roswell Mall reported to police Tuesday that $8,478 worth of merchandise was stolen during an apparent burglary on Monday night.

Roswell police believe the criminal may have hidden inside the mall and then, after it closed and everyone else left, burglarized the kiosk of numerous items.

The mall closes at 9 p.m., but a person appears on a surveillance video breaking a door on the backside of the mall and leaving around midnight.

The kiosk operator, who showed up to open the business Tuesday, told RPD he will offer a $1,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. RPD has received no reports of any other businesses in the mall being burglarized or damaged Monday night.

Police said they may have information in upcoming days as they track down more video.

Anyone with information about the incident should call the RPD at 624-6770.

Bullying

Continued from Page A1

If talking to a counselor does not work, the next step is for the assistant principal or principal to talk to the kids and figure out what the root problem is, he said.

“The next step of course, if it continues, then there should be disciplinary actions, which could be after -school detentions, could be suspension, could be a parent conference, any of those things, depending on what the nature of the bullying is,” Burris said.

On Dec. 11, eight days before the end of the semester, Daniel pinched Michael so hard blood was drawn, according to the school incident report.

After the incident on Dec. 11, Moorhead spoke with Harris again.

“We told the principal, ‘Hey, look, this is what’s going on. You need to fix the issue. You need to move somebody,’” she said.

Moorhead said she and her husband are not only worried about their kids, but the other students in the school.

“It’s not just my kids. I

want all these kids safe and they’re not,” she said. “I don’t know if it’s the principal or the school district.

Nothing has happened.”

Rogers said her son has been bullied since kindergarten in 2013 and has been bullied at home by a half-sister.

Rogers said her son received 28 disciplinary referrals during the first semester from the school.

She said that a lot of what her son does, he does because he is reacting from things that are happening to him.

She also said that all incidents between Michael and Daniel happened when Daniel was with his father, or preparing to spend the week at his father’s house, since both Rogers and Daniel’s father have shared custody.

“In the middle of the week, he starts getting nervous about going back to his dad’s,” Rogers said.

The problem with the school, Rogers said, is that she is not contacted when an incident occurs.

“Most of the time, they do call me because I have primary physical custody of (my son),” she said. “(But) they’ve decided that it’s putting too much stress on

Doynes proposed an idea to charge parents when their student acts out. Teachers can only send an unruly or disrespectful student to the principal in hopes the student will stop, but, it is up to the parents to truly correct their behavior.

Thomas Davis, who spoke at two previous meetings, addressed the board about the racial slur students have used against his son and the lack of action taken by teachers and the board to fix the problem.

“Right is right, wrong is wrong. I’m not going to stand here and say treat everyone equally, but be fair,” Davis said.

Davis expressed his displeasure at the lack of action taken by the school and lack of concern for his child.

“I had to get a zone exception,” Davis said.

Davis said because of the bullying, his son does not want to be associated with the school anymore.

“My son doesn’t play sports. He has academic medals and trophies all over his wall,” he said. “He doesn’t want these. He doesn’t want anything to do with Mesa Middle School.”

Davis placed the trophies and medals in front of Superintendent Tom Burris.

Davis explained how the school never

Mom and so they decided to start calling Dad.” When the last bullying incident occurred, on Dec. 11, Rogers was informed not by phone call, but by a letter that was mailed to her house.

“I didn’t get a letter until (Dec. 16) about it,” she said. “I don’t know half of the stuf f that’s on (the school incident report).”

Because she was not informed immediately after the incidents, Rogers believes there is a culture of secrecy among Berrendo Elementary School administrators.

“The school hides things from a lot of people,” she said.

Although Burris did not know about the incidents at the elementary school, he told the Daily Record he wanted to speak to Moorhead to investigate the reported bullying and learn why Harris never informed Burris.

“I am sorry that this person has taken 17 incidents of bullying and I don’t know anything about it,” Burris said.

“If I can’t depend on you to follow through then who can I depend on?” he said. “If we don’t stand up for the kids who will?”

Davis also said his son, who does well in all of his classes, failed home economics.

“He gets an A in algebra but a D in the class he makes a complaint in,” Davis said. “Everyone can flip a hamburger, but how many of us can pass algebra?”

Charles Weather, a Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps Instructor at New Mexico Military Institute, spoke on the topic as well.

“What is being done to stop this?” he said. “It starts in the school.”

Get Classified

Wal-Mart and the myth of the free market A4 Thursday, January 15, 2015

OPINION

As the Legislature debates the two related issues of right to work and minimum wage, we’re probably going to hear about theories like free markets and free choice.

So let’s get real.

Some things are still traded in completely free markets, I suppose, but I would hesitate to name one nationally marketed product that is not somehow affected (for better or worse) by subsidies, tax breaks, or other factors that have nothing to do with consumer choice. (If you find one, please write to me!)

We are all subsidizing WalMart. If you don’t shop there, you are subsidizing the purchases of people who do.

Americans for Tax Fair ness issued a report in April 2014 called “Wal-Mart on Tax Day: How Taxpayers Subsidize America’s Biggest Employer and Richest Family.”

In this report, a state-by-state

MERILEE

DANNEMANN TRIPLE SPACED

analysis shows the estimated number of Wal-Mart employees in New Mexico as 14,322. The estimated public assistance cost for those New Mexico employees is $63.2 million. The estimated yearly total of tax breaks and subsidies to the Wal-Mart stores in New Mexico, benefitting the company’s owners and stockholders, is $73.7 million. Those two figures add up to $136.9 million – money either not collected in taxes or paid out in public assistance to workers.

The report, available online, does not break down how much

of this money is a direct loss to New Mexico. It’s a mixture of federal, state and local dollars. Of course, if you’re a taxpayer, it’s all coming out of your pocket.

It also analyzes other factors, such as millions in additional benefits to the Walton family (Wal-Mart’s majority owners) through tax breaks on the income they receive from the company.

That’s just Wal-mart — not the only company of its kind, but possibly the most egregious.

It used to be, at least the mythology says, that success in the marketplace was based on giving consumers what they want at the best combination of price and quality, determined by the “invisible hand” of free consumer choice. If you build a better mousetrap, the saying went, the world will beat a path to your door.

Nowadays companies need not a quality product but a creative

advertising agency, a lot of lobbyists, preferential regulations and the cheapest available labor.

In a pure free-market world, minimum wage would be the wage earned by teenagers doing entry-level work, learning the ropes and getting better pay as they master workplace skills and contribute more to their employer’s profits.

But that’s not today’s world.

Workers take low-paying jobs because there aren’t enough higher paying jobs. Policy makers continue to debate how to improve the job market, create opportunity, bring manufacturing back from overseas, blah-blahblah. In New Mexico, the debate is about how much to give away in incentives to persuade companies to locate here.

Some workers have a tough time, and the rest of us pay taxes for public assistance for workers who can’t support their families

on their earnings.

So one way to think about a minimum wage increase is simply that it shifts the cost of supporting the working poor from the taxpayers to the customers.

Maybe there’s a way to write a minimum wage law that applies primarily to employers who are bursting with profit at taxpayer expense while going easy on small business.

Regarding right-to-work laws, there’s a very simple way for employers to prevent unionization. Give workers a decent deal and they won’t want to unionize.

Pay them adequate wages and treat them with dignity. Train managers so they encourage rather than insult the people they supervise.

That’s the free market solution.

Faced with much-deserved criticism that neither President Obama, nor his vice president, secretary of state or attorney general bothered to attend Sunday’s anti-terrorism rally in Paris, the administration’s default response was to dismiss the criticism as much ado about a trifle.

“I really think,” said Secretary of State John Kerry, “this is sort of quibbling.” As to Attorney General Eric Holder, who actually was in Paris on Sunday, he “had to return to Washington,” according to the Justice Department.

On Monday, the White House acknowledged the administration made a mistake by no-showing in Paris (save for Jane Hartley, U.S. ambassador to France). “It’s safe to say that we should have sent someone with a higher profile to be there,” conceded White House press secretary Josh Earnest.

Indeed, more than 40 world leaders cleared their schedules to march in solidarity Sunday with French President Francois Hollande, as well as the more than 3.5 million people participating in the largest-ever gathering in France’s capital city.

The lasting image of the march in memory of the journalists slain by Islamist terrorists at the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo, will be President Hollande locked arm in arm with a host of dignitaries.

That included Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mali President Ibrahim Boubacar Keita, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Italy’s Prime Minister Matteo Renzi.

Mr. Obama should have been in that historic photo-op. Not to overshadow the other world leaders, but to recognize the role of the president of the United States as the leader of the free world.

We recognize that Mr. Obama recoils from that unofficial title, which he views as an anachronistic legacy of the Cold War era.

We also recognize that Mr. Obama rejects the idea of American “exceptionalism,” which was first posited by the French sociologist and political theorist Alexis de Tocqueville in his 1835 work “Democracy in America.”

But just because the president doesn’t think the United States is the leader of the free world and doesn’t think America is an exceptional nation doesn’t mean that he’s right on either count.

Indeed, we cannot envision a successful “war on terror” in which the United States does not play the lead role, with the accompaniment of nations, like France, that share the values that made the United States the exceptional nation that de Tocqueville first wrote about 180 years ago.

Wind energy’s bluster peters out

Cape Wind, touted as “America’s first offshore wind project,” became one of America’s most high-profile and most controversial wind-energy projects. Fourteen years in the making, estimated at $2.6 billion for 130 turbines, covering 25 square miles in Nantucket Sound off the coast of Massachusetts, the Cape Wind project has yet to install one turbine — let alone produce any electricity. Now, it may be “dead in the water.”

On Jan. 6, the two power companies, National Grid and Northeast Utilities, that had agreed to purchase most of the electricity Cape Wind was to generate, terminated their contracts with the developers due to missed milestones.

Under the terms of the contracts, Cape Wind had to secure financing and give notices to proceed to its suppliers to start work by Dec. 31, 2014. Neither happened and both companies filed to

cancel power purchase agreements. “The project is in cardiac arrest,” according to Amy Grace, a wind-industry analyst with Bloomberg New Energy Finance.

Cape Wind has faced stiff opposition since it was first proposed in 2001. Senator Edward Kennedy’s efforts, and those of his wealthy friends, to fight Cape Wind have been the most publicized, but Native Americans, fishermen, and local communities have also battled the industrialization of Nantucket Sound. The town of Barnstable has been particularly active in the fight. The Cape Cod Times reports that

Charles McLaughlin, Barnstable’s assistant town attorney, said: “The town’s concerns include the possibility that a collision between a boat and the large electric service platfor m the project requires could spill thousands of gallons of oil into the sound.”

For mer Massachusetts Governor Deval Patrick (D) positioned Cape Wind as the centerpiece of his renewable energy goals and invested significant political capital backing the proposal—including tying the NStar power purchase agreement to approval of the NStar and Northeast Utilities merger (given the unfavorable ter ms of the agreements, the companies may have been looking for any exit ramp). Yet, Ian Bowles, Patrick’s first energy and environment chief who, according to the Boston Globe, “helped shepherd the offshore project,” acknowledges that the loss of the power purchase

agreements “may have spelled the end for Cape Wind.”

The announcement came two days before Patrick left office. While he claims: “We’ve done everything as a state government to get them over the regulatory lines,” Patrick concedes it is now “up to the market.” According to the Cape Cod Times, the former governor doesn’t know “if the project could survive without the contracts in place.”

Even the Department of Energy, which seems to indiscriminately throw money at any politically favored greenenergy project, was tepid in its support for Cape Wind. DOE’s loan guarantees generally average about 60 percent of the project’s costs, but the $150 million offered to Cape Wind made up a mere 6 percent — and that, only after the project received commitments for about half of its

Asthma action plan will help during an emergency

DEAR DOCTOR K: My son was recently diagnosed with asthma. His doctor wants to put together an asthma “action plan.” What is that?

DEAR READER: Asthma is a complicated and serious disease. It can behave dif ferently from hour to hour and from day to day.

A person with asthma needs a plan for what to do at each stage of the disease. I’ll describe the elements of the plan in a minute, but first a little background on asthma itself.

Asthma assaults the lung’s airways. The airways are the tubes through which the air you breathe enters and leaves your lungs. During an asthma

ASK DR. K UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

attack, the airways get narrower as the muscles surrounding them constrict.

The airways also become inflamed, and mucus fills the narrowed passageways.

As a result, the flow of air is partially or completely blocked.

A mild asthma attack may cause wheezing, difficulty breathing or a persistent cough. Symptoms of a more severe attack can

include extreme shortness of breath, chest tightness, flared nostrils and pursed lips.

Two types of medications are used to treat asthma: controllers and relievers.

Controllers — usually inhaled corticosteroids — are medicines taken regularly to reduce the likelihood of asthma attacks.

They reduce inflammation, which decreases mucus production and reduces tightening of airway muscles.

Relievers, or “rescue” medications, are used just during asthma attacks.

They stop or reduce the severity of the attack by relaxing the muscles around the airways to improve air flow. Bron-

chodilators are often used as rescue medications. (I’ve put an illustration showing how medications treat asthma on my website, AskDoctorK.com.)

Everyone with asthma should have an asthma action plan. This is a written plan that details what you need to do to control your asthma. It also explains what to do when you experience asthma symptoms or in case of an emergency. You may feel that you already know this information, but when you or a loved one is struggling to breathe, it helps to have a set of written instructions to refer to.

Asthma action plans are often divided into “zones.”

You should be able to tell

what zone your son is in from his symptoms. The action plan will tell you what you need to do in each zone. For example: GREEN ZONE: Doing well. No coughing, wheezing, chest tightness or shortness of breath; can do all usual activities. Take prescribed long-term controller medicine.

YELLOW ZONE: Getting worse. Coughing, wheezing, chest tightness or shortness of breath; waking at night; can do some, but not all, usual activities. Add quick-relief medicine.

RED ZONE: Medical alert! Very short of breath; quick-relief medicines don’t help; cannot do usual activities; symptoms no better after 24 hours in yel-

See NOON, Page A5

low zone. Get medical help now.

People live with asthma for many years and come to know a lot about it. So a written asthma action plan may seem unnecessary.

But in my experience, people who suddenly get sick sometimes forget to take the steps they know they should. A written asthma action plan can be a valuable reminder at a moment of trouble.

Exciting developments in Curatorial Department Roswell Daily Record

BY SARA WOODBURY CURATOR OF COLLECTIONS AND EXHIBITIONS

As Curator of Collections and Exhibits, I’m excited about many activities happening in my department. As we move into 2015, I’d like to give you a preview of what will be going on in the near future.

During the month of January several of our galleries will be changing out with new exhibits and rotations.

On Jan. 16, our next Roswell Artist-in-Resident, Olive Ayhens, will be opening her show of new paintings and watercolors.

A yhens combines abstraction and representational painting to create transformative landscapes that synthesize urban settings and natural environments. A reception will take place from 5:30-7 p.m. that evening, with the artist giving a talk at 5:30 in

the Bassett Auditorium. We also recently changed the rotation in Tamarind: Teaming Up, our exhibit highlighting the Museum’s holdings of Tamarind Institute lithographs, so visitors will see an entirely new selection of works. In late January, we’ll be opening another new exhibit in Horgan and Graphics Gallery, Intaglio to Go! This show highlights our wonderful works on paper collection, and will introduce visitors to different types of intaglio printing, including etching, aquatint, drypoint, and engraving. In February, visitors can check out Seeing Cats and Dogs in Spring River Gallery, a

show which highlights representations of pets from the permanent collection.

I’m also very pleased to announce the arrival of our new Registrar, Laureta Huit. The Registrar plays an extremely important role within the curatorial department. Registrars manage all the object records and files for a museum collection, and they keep track of the location of all the items within our holdings.

They organize the museum database, and classify and enter new objects when they enter the collection.

They also monitor the temperature and humidity levels within all collections and gallery spaces, and condition-check every piece before it goes on view. Registrars also manage all the paperwork for loans. In short, they are the primary implementers of collections management.

Laureta comes to us from El Paso, Texas, and she is excep-

tionally qualified for this crucial position. She already has substantial experience as a Registrar within dif ferent museum settings, including the El Paso Museum of Art, the Rubin Center for Contemporary Arts, and the Austin Museum of Art. She has also worked at Apex Art in Marfa, Texas, one of the premier sites for contemporary art today. In addition to her Registrar background, Laureta also has considerable experience in exhibit design and installation.

While working in Marfa, she actually helped to convert several adobe buildings into usable, temperature-controlled gallery spaces. Laureta earned a B.A. in art history and philosophy at the University of Texas in El Paso, as well as her Museum Studies certification. She also earned a certificate in Museum Studies from the Institute of American Indian Arts in Santa Fe. Laureta is very excited to join our team at the

Museum, and we are delighted to have her here.

It’s an exciting time in the curatorial realm, but we’re not the only part of the Museum that’s buzzing with activity. Our Education department is offering a great array of winter classes for all ages, as well as our ongoing family film series. The Planetarium schedule for the winter season, which will include new shows, is also now available online.

If you’re interested in registering for classes, contact Claudia Gonzalez at 575-624-6744, ext.

22 or education@roswell museum.org.

For any questions about the Planetarium, contact Marcus de Thouars at marcus@roswell museum.org. If you’re looking to get out of the cold, come to the Museum. Regardless of your interests, we’ve got something for you.

How to get rid of mealy bugs and other plant pests Q. I was wondering if you could tell me how I can get rid of the mealy bugs I have in my greenhouse? Any help would be appreciated.

Kurt S. Via NMSU UniversityWide Extension

A. About this time of year insect pests seem to explode on indoor plants and greenhouse plants.

Due to the fact that the plants are away from the natural outdoor environment, many of the natural controls for insect pests are diminished or totally absent. The normal insect predators that control garden pests are usually not present or active at this time of year and in the greenhouse or home indoor environment. You may not be able to totally eliminate the mealy bugs, but you

financing. In most cases, the government guarantee comes before the private financing and signals a go-ahead for investors.

Additionally, the political winds have shifted.

While Governor Patrick championed Cape Wind, Massachusetts’ new governor, Charlie Baker (R) was staunchly opposed to it — even calling it Patrick’s “personal pet project.” While campaigning, Baker “dropped his opposition to Cape Wind” because he believed it was a “done deal.” Now that the deal may well be undone, Baker says he “will not try to influence the outcome of the legal process surrounding the Cape Wind project.”

should be able to minimize their impact on your plants. The most common pests for indoor gardening are mealy bugs, aphids, and scale insects.

If your plants are in a that is greenhouse detached from your home and you are not opposed to using pesticides, there are several products that control insect pests. You can check the labels of products on the shelves of your local garden center to find one that is appropriate for the plants you are growing and labeled for controlling your specific pests. If your greenhouse is attached to

Hubbard Foundation of Ruidoso awarded us a nice grant and from Carlsbad the Souther n New Mexico Community Action Committee of Eddy County paid our annual vehicle insurance. An unofficial member of our team is Beverly Annins of Sen. Udall’s of fice who continually helps us over bureaucratic obstacles.

Finally. Our thanks goes to T om Krumland and B.J. Sills of the Krumland Auto Group for providing utility companies filed to cancel power purchase agreements, two Minnesota wind farms, operating as Minwind Companies, filed for bankruptcy because the 11 turbines needed extensive repairs and the 360 farmers and landowners who invested in the projects can’t afford the maintenance. Weather related damaged put them 200-300 percent over budget.

Minwind’s nine separate limited-liability companies allowed investors to take advantage of federal wind-energy credits, USDA grants, and the now-discontinued state assistance program for small wind projects. The Star -T ribune reports: “The owners stand to lose their investment, and the wind far ms eventually may have to shut down.”

On the national level, the American Wind Energy Association has continued to lobby for a retroactive extension of the Pro-

your home so that air exchange may let pesticide vapors into your home, or if you would prefer to use products that are safer for mammals (you and your pets) the choices are more limited but you do have choices. Insecticidal soap, specially formulated to kill insects, is normally safe to use even inside a home and should not harm most pets.

Some plants may be injured by insecticidal soap, but the directions on the label can guide you in determining which plants may be harmed.

Repeated applications will be required as insect

eggs hatch and the next generation of mealy bugs appears. Repeat applications according to label directions to reduce the population of mealy bugs before they can reproduce.

Some insecticidal oil sprays may also be helpful, especially if you have scale insect pests on your plants.

Once again, follow the label directions carefully. You may need to apply oil directly to the scale insects with a cotton swab and attempt to dislodge the insect while rubbing the oil on them.

In a detached greenhouse you may choose to use biological measures to control the mealy bugs. Some insectaries can supply lacewing larvae which are voracious predators of many soft-bodied indoor plant pests. There are other beneficial insects to consid-

us with office and parking space and help with our vehicle maintenance.

We travelled more than 160,000 miles in 2014 (an almost 15 percent increase) and served more than 1,400 local veterans of southeastern New Mexico (a 40 percent increase) over 2013. As usual we travelled to many VA approved health facilities including, but not limited to, Amarillo, Big Spring, Odessa and El Paso, Texas. In New Mexico we drive almost daily to Albuquerque and Artesia.

We will also take vets to Alamogordo for eye appointments and to Las Cruces or other approved facilities as needed.

duction Tax Credit for wind energy that expired at the end of 2013. Disappointing AWEA, the lameduck Congress did approve a ninth extension — but just through the end of 2014. AWEA’s CEO T im Kier nan groused: “Unfortunately, the extension to the end of 2014 will only allow minimal new wind development and it will have expired again by the time the new Congress convenes.” In response to the “bareminimum extension,” Luke Lewandowsi, Make Consulting research manager, said it “casts doubt on the willingness or ability of Congress to revisit the PTC in 2015.”

Adding insult to industrial wind’s injury, wind turbine installation placed number three in a recent list of 10 dying U.S. industries — in a better spot than only computer and recordable media manufacturing.

bode well for the wind energy business, but for ratepayers and those who believe in the free market and who believe that government shouldn’t pick winners and losers, current wind conditions are a breath of fresh air.

er as well. In the case of the scale insects, there are specific predators to help control them. In an attached greenhouse setting, you can still use biological control measures, but you may find some of the beneficial insects entering your home and becoming a nuisance to some degree. Your level of tolerance to non-har mful insects flying around inside your home and/or your willingness to return the insects to the greenhouse may help you decide if you want to use predator insects with an attached greenhouse.

In the case of windowsill gardening, you will probably not want to use most biological predators to control pests. You can find information about beneficial insects online at various insectaries selling ben-

Three of BustamanteConchas’ four co-defendants pled guilty to participating in a heroin trafficking conspiracy and are serving federal prison sentences.

Baltazar Granados, 38, pled guilty on June 17 and was sentenced to 80 months in prison on Nov. 20.

Ramon Cabrales-Guerra, 23, pled guilty on June 23 and was sentenced to 46 months in prison on Oct. 10. Angel Miramontes-Cruz, 23, pled guilty on May 29 and was sentenced on Oct. 10 to 24 months in federal prison. All three men are Mexican nationals illegally present in the United States and will be deported after completing their prison sentences.

The fourth co-defendant, Ruben Garcia Miranda, 53, an Albuquerque resident, pled guilty on June 12, 2014, to using a communications device to facilitate a drug trafficking crime. He is scheduled to be sentenced on Jan. 22, 2015.

Joel Nunez-Haros, 43, and Pablo Arturo FelixSicairos, 21, also were arrested in June 2013, and charged in a separate indictment with possession of heroin with intent to distribute. Both men pled guilty to the indictment in late June 2014. Nunez-Haros was sentenced to 57 months in prison on Nov. 20 and Felix-Sicairos was sentenced to 44 months in prison on Oct. 10.

Ignacio was a member of the St. John’s Catholic Church Men’s Club, the Holy Name Society during its early years, working alongside his wife for the annual fiestas, fair booths, and church plays. He was an active member of the church and an usher up to the time of his illness. He was a little league baseball coach/manager, Boy Scout T roop Leader 95, and served in the NM National Guard Air Force. He loved to bake and make candy; his passion early on was making breads, cinnamon rolls, wine making and pastries. He would plan his holiday baking/making to see what he would send off for friends and loved ones.

He was known for his toffee and would have family always request it. He loved to work in his yard and rescue pets; he would say he didn’t want to see anyone or thing need food or be hungry. He would feed all the strays in the neighborhood; from cats, to dogs and the birds. He loved watching his classic movies, baseball and golf.

Nacho was a storyteller; he loved to tell his family and friends of the good ol’ days; when “Sody” pops were a nickel and you could go to the movies for a quarter.

He was preceded in death by his parents; Ignacio Leaton Sr., Annie Molina, their prison sentences.

These cases were investigated by the Albuquerque office of the DEA, the Albuquerque Police Department and the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office and were prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Sean J. Sullivan, Nicholas J. Ganjei and Paul Mysliwiec.

The investigation resulting in these cases, which was code-named “Balloon Fiesta” in reference to the multi-colored balloons that heroin often is packaged in for retail distribution, was designated as part of the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force program. OCDETF is a nationwide Department of Justice program that combines the resources and unique expertise of federal agencies, along with their local counterparts, in a coordinated effort to disrupt and dismantle major drug trafficking organizations.

The New Mexico Heroin and Opioid Prevention and Education Initiative is a collaboration between the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center that is partnering with the Bernalillo County Opioid Accountability Initiative with the overriding goal of reducing the number of opioid-related deaths in the District of New Mexico. The HOPE Initiative comprised of five components: (1) prevention and education; (2) treatment; (3) law enforcement; (4) reentry; and (5) strategic planning. The law enforcement component of the HOPE Initiative is led by the Organized Crime Section of the U.S. Attorney’s Office and the DEA in conjunction with their federal, state, local and tribal law enforcement partners. Targeting major heroin traffickers like Bustamante-Conchas for investigation and prosecution is a priority of the HOPE Initiative.

Albuquerque police say shot suspect wore stolen body armor

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A man shot and killed by Albuquerque police was wearing sheriff-issued body armor and fired a stolen gun at officers, police said Wednesday.

John Edward Okeefe, 34, died after a shootout with two officers on Tuesday in what was the Albuquerque Police Department’s first fatal shooting of 2015.

The latest incident follows a string of shootings that have prompted public protests, federal scrutiny and even charges from a local prosecutor.

According to police, Okeefe fled from officers who responded to a call about two suspicious men in an eastside neighborhood. Police said Okeefe then shot at an of ficer chasing him. That officer took cover and did not return fire as Okeefe ran across a busy street, police said.

Okeefe fired at officers again, police said, and two officers then returned fire, killing him.

Police said the gun and bulletproof vest found on Okeefe were stolen from a Bernalillo County Sheriff’s deputy. It was unclear why the suspect was wearing body armor.

Authorities said Okeefe had been previously arrested for narcotics charges and armed robbery in Missouri.

The names of the officers in the shooting were not released. The other suspect was taken into custody and briefly questioned before being released. Charges are pending.

Tuesday’s shooting comes a day after a district attorney announced that she is seeking murder charges against two Albuquerque of ficers in the death of a homeless man in March.

It’s a tumultuous start to 2015 for Albuquerque after months without a police shooting and for a department that will enter federal monitoring.

Just a day after a district attorney announced murder charges against two Albuquerque police officers, authorities said another city police officer fired his weapon Tuesday night. But authorities declined to say if anyone was killed or if anyone was shot.

The announcement Monday by Bernalillo County District Attor ney Kari Brandenburg marked the first time her of fice has sought charges against any of the more than 40 officers involved in shootings since 2010 and a rare move by a district attorney anywhere in the country.

Meanwhile, two officers are recovering from gunshot wounds in a separate case this month.

And on Sunday, a marked New Mexico State Police vehicle was vandalized with spray paint with expletives at an Albuquerque apartment complex.

“We really need to have a major shift in views on how the public views the police and the police views the public,” said Barbara Bergman, a law professor at the University of New Mexico. “It shouldn’t be a war.”

The city of Albuquerque and the U.S. Justice Department are working to decide on a monitoring team that would oversee the police force. Officials had hoped that the agreement would ease tensions between police and critics, which boiled over last year with protests, the takeover of a city council meeting and the hacking of city websites.

That agreement called for

new training and protocols for investigating of ficer shootings. It also called for the agency to dismantle some troubled units and a series of community forums.

But advocates say they plan on resuming demonstrations around the city and believe recent events show distrust remains.

More than a dozen protesters rallied outside Albuquerque police headquarters Wednesday afternoon, carrying photos of those killed by police and calling for the firing of Police Chief Gorden Eden.

“We were actually at a happy place not too long ago and thought things were changing,” demonstrator Nora Tachias-Anaya said. “Now we’re back to square one and I don’t know why.”

Los Alamos County seeks end to contract with airline

LOS ALAMOS (AP) — A northern New Mexico county wants to end its contract with a small airline that recently grounded its planes.

Los Alamos County officials announced Tuesday that they have taken action to terminate the contract for service with New Mexico Airlines, giving the contractor 10 days’ notice.

The last day for flights under the contract will be Jan. 23.

Messages left with the airline were not immediately returned.

County officials say New Mexico Airlines suspended service for two weeks in December and hasn’t operated flights between Los Alamos and Albuquerque for the past week.

County Manager Harry Burgess says a request for qualified contractors will go out within two weeks. He has directed airport staff to expedite the hiring process so flights can resume as soon as possible.

Review: Mann’s cyber-thriller ‘Blackhat’ clicks with urgency

Michael Mann’s “Blackhat” begins with the camera slowly descending from above Earth, diving down into a nuclear facility, and submerging into the underlying, twisting maze of electronic circuitry. A single, glowing blip — a bit of malicious code, we soon learn — invades and proliferates.

The malware’s fanning spread through the network recalls the stealthy swoop of the black-clad gangsters of Mann’s last movie, the John Dillinger thriller “Public Enemies,” as they sinuously flowed across the marble floor of a Midwestern bank.

In “Blackhat,” Mann has returned to modern day for an especially timely tale of cyberterrorism, but his grim fascination with the poetry and choreography of violence is the same, even if it comes by pixels rather than pistols.

“Blackhat” (in which there’s plenty of gunplay, too) viscerally dramatizes digital life, or at least a muscular techno-thriller version of it. For moviegoers who have wanted to ESC out of previous cyber thrillers like “The Net,” Mann’s lethally steely film hums with urgency.

When the poisonous code prompts the meltdown of a Hong Kong reactor (and a simultaneous strike on the commodities market), desperate investigators spring the hacker Nicholas Hathaway (Chris Hemsworth) from prison to aid the pursuit. (“Blackhat” is a term for a criminal hacker, whereas a “whitehat” does it beneficially for security.)

Though outfitted with an ankle monitor, Hathaway quickly takes command of an unlikely U.S.-China joint task force led by Hathaway’s former MIT room-

mate Chen Dawai (Leehom Wang) for China. Carol Barrett (Viola Davis) and Henry Pollack (John Ortiz) are on the U.S. side.

It’s a mysterious kind of detective work: hunting an enemy you can’t see whose footprints are either invisible or artificial, bounced through proxy servers. One telling shot in a movie that seeks to get inside the grid, is from within a computer, looking up through a translucent keyboard.

The film, like so many of Mann’s, is gravely serious in a way that would invite more parody if it wasn’t so handsomely styled and obsessively detailed. Stern faces in sunglasses are everywhere. One of the few emotionally tender moments in the movie is spoken over headsets on a helicopter.

(No one ought to come to a Mann film for romance, or, for that matter, for its women.) People die mercilessly in the hunt: the fleshand-blood victims of data-

driven warfare.

Mann is drawn, as if by tractor beam, to the murky backwaters of global capitalism: He’s never met a shipping yard he didn’t want to shoot in. Yet someone ought to try to lure him back to the woods. The lush wilderness of “The Last of the Mohicans” — the outside outlier to his filmography — has since been matched by few, maybe only Terrence Malick in “The New World.”

His films of late have been sleekly beautiful and cold to the touch; they could use a live-wire like Pacino (as in “Heat”) to animate them again. Hemsworth, a hunk if ever there was one, and a talented actor, too (see: “Rush”), is convincing enough as an unusually dashing hacker. The side plot with his love interest, Chen’s sister (Tang Wei), is less successful, but in both globe-trotting locales and cast, few movies have been as rivetingly East-West as “Blackhat,” which soaks up

the murky friend-enemy relationship between China and the U.S. By the time the film leads to a gorgeous nighttime showdown in Jakarta’s Papua Square, much of its geopolitical relevance has slipped away in clumsily scripted action-film cliche.

But, man, is it something to look at.

“Blackhat,” a Universal Pictures release, is rated R for “violence and some language.” Running time: 133 minutes. # # # out of ####.

Winfield, long-serving Marlboro Man, dies in Wyoming at age 85 RIVERTON, Wyo. (AP) — One of the last of the Marlboro Men has died in Wyoming.

Darrell Hugh Winfield was 85. He died Monday at his home in Riverton, Davis Funeral Home said.

The Marlboro Man was a macho cowboy whose image in advertising from the 1950s to the late 1990s made filtered cigarettes more appealing to men. Previously Marlboros were marketed to women.

Winfield’s rugged good looks made him the face of Marlboro cigarettes in magazine and television ads from the late 1960s to the late 1980s.

The Leo Burnett ad agency discovered Winfield in 1968 while he was working on the Quarter Circle 5 Ranch in western Wyoming.

Winfield was born on July 30, 1929, in Little Kansas, Oklahoma. He is survived by his wife, son, five daughters and several grandchildren.

Raiders, 49ers, Jets make defensive-minded decisions ASSOCIATED PRESS

The New York Jets stuck with defense. The San Francisco 49ers and Oakland Raiders are giving it a try, too.

The Jets hired Arizona defensive coordinator Todd Bowles as head coach Wednesday, the 49ers promoted longtime defensive line coach Jim Tomsula, and the Raiders turned to Denver defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio. Denver, Atlanta and Chicago still have openings.

On Wednesday, John Fox interviewed with Chicago,

Rex Ryan is introduced as Buffalo’s new coach at a news conference Wednesday.

two days after parting ways with Denver.

The 49ers said Tomsula will be formally introduced Thursday at a news conference that comes after a more than two-week search that ended right in house.

Tomsula replaces Jim Harbaugh, who parted ways with the 49ers on Dec. 28 in what the team called a “mutual decision.”

Harbaugh was introduced as Michigan’s coach two days later following a successful four-year stint during which the 49ers reached three straight NFC championship games and a Super Bowl.

“After conducting a thorough coaching search, and meeting with a number of outstanding candidates, Jim Tomsula clearly is the right man to lead this team,” CEO Jed York said in a statement.

San Francisco went 8-8 this season and missed the playoffs.

The Jets made it official with Bowles, also a top candidate for the Atlanta job, a day after hiring former Houston director of college scouting Mike Maccagnan as general manager. They fired Rex Ryan and general manager John Idzik on Dec. 29 following a 4-12 finish.

“I am confident that Todd and Mike Maccagnan are the right combination to

lead this team,” Jets owner Woody Johnson said.

Bowles, a for mer NFL defensive back, is the Jets’ sixth straight defensivefocused head coach and fifth since Johnson took over in 2000, following Bill Parcells, Al Groh, Her m Edwards, Eric Mangini and Ryan.

“It’s an honor and privilege to coach the Jets,” Bowles said in a statement.

“I can’t help but be humbled by the chance to coach this team. I am going to do everything I can to build a consistent winner.”

Bowles from Elizabeth, New Jersey, was the Jets’ defensive backs coach under Groh in 2000 season. He beat out five other candidates who interviewed, including Seattle defensive coordinator Dan Quinn and former Buffalo coach Doug Marrone.

A person with knowledge of the Del Rio’s hiring said a deal was agreed to Wednesday, not long after the team told interim coach Tony Sparano he would not get the job. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because an announcement had not been made.

Del Rio, a for mer NFL linebacker, was the head coach in Jacksonville for nine seasons before spending the past three as Denver’s defensive coordinator.

Sparano was elevated from offensive line coach during the season to replace the fired Dennis Allen. Oakland went 3-9 under Sparano after losing the first four games under Allen.

Ryan ended up in Buffalo on Monday and was as brash and bold as ever Wednesday at his first news conference.

“Is this thing on?” Ryan said, tapping the microphone. “Because it’s getting ready to be on.”

Outlining his objectives, Ryan said the job is his last chance to prove himself. He vowed to build the Bills into “a bully” and said he has an additional chip on his shoulder after being fired by the Jets.

“Yes, it’s personal,” he said, about being fired. “It’s embarrassing.”

Marrone shocked the Bills by stepping down Dec. 31. The second-year coach opted out of his contract after Terry and Kim Pegula purchased the franchise in October. R yan made a veiled reference to Marrone’s departure by saying: “This football team deserves a loyal coach.”

Bowles becomes the fifth black head coach currently in the NFL, joining Pittsburgh’s Mike Tomlin,

Uncertainty plagues Broncos Historic Dexter See COACHES, Page B3

hoops tourney to tip off today

BY ARNIE STAPLETON ASSOCIATED PRESS

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. — The Denver Broncos figured they’d be talking about facing Tom Brady this week, not pondering Peyton Manning’s future and wondering who will be their next coach.

Even with their ailing QB scuffling down the stretch, the Broncos sauntered into the playoffs certain they had found the formula to avenge last year’s Super Bowl plunge. That mixture featured balance on of fense, dominance on defense and solid special teams.

“Yeah, we definitely had the ingredients,” linebacker Steven Johnson said. “It just didn’t work out our way. So, we’ve just got to learn from it. Go home and sulk. Eat some ice cream for a couple of days. And then snap out of it and try to go back to work.”

GM John Elway gets no such break as he searches for a new coach while sifting through the wreckage of another season-ending debacle in which the Broncos lost as heavy favorites.

Their lack of fire in Denver’s 24-13 loss to Indianapolis on Sunday led to a quick parting with coach John Fox less than 24 hours later.

After failing for the third straight time to parlay the best regular-season record into a Super Bowl title, the Broncos face an offseason of uncertainty unlike anything they’ve experienced since closing the chapter on Tebowmania three years ago.

all season and a strained right thigh this last month, is pondering retirement.

Elway asked him not to make a rash decision — although he’ll need an answer before the last day of the league year, March 9, when Manning’s $19 million salary for 2015 becomes guaranteed.

If Manning returns, the Broncos might have to ask him to restructure the final two years of his contract to free up money to bolster the roster, particularly the porous O-line.

His protection failed to give him enough time or space to step into his throws. When opponents used the Seahawks’ Super Bowl template and clogged the routes, Manning had to throw outside the numbers and morphed from one of the all-time greats into a pedestrian passer, one who overthrew his receivers eight times Sunday.

more than one opportunity to put the game away.

It was the kind of game that Kansas State might have lost earlier this season.

“T rying to come back after a really good win against Oklahoma on the road, and then we had to earn the victory,” Weber said, “and I thought we did it, we went and fought and earned it.”

It was the fourth straight loss to open Big 12 play for the Red Raiders, and their second defeat in the Sun-

Red Raiders drop to 0-4 in Big 12 MANHATTAN, Kan. — Kansas State coach Bruce Weber called a 58-51 victory over Texas Tech on Wednesday night a “maturity game,” the kind of performance that proves just how far a team has come.

The Wildcats didn’t play all that well — they were outrebounded, frequently out-hustled, and struggled with their shots. They allowed the Red Raiders to hang around until the closing minutes, squandering

flower State in the last four days. They lost at No. 9 Kansas on Saturday.

“We played hard tonight, gave ourselves a chance there at the end,” Texas Tech coach Tubby Smith said, “but certainly Kansas State did what they had to do to ice the game.”

Marcus Foster led the Wildcats with 14 points.

Wesley Iwundu added 10.

“We’ve got a tough time scoring,” Smith said. “We play good defense but we just have to manufacture points. Going with a small-

er lineup has hurt.”

Kansas State (10-7, 3-1 Big 12) led just 49-46 with 3 minutes to go, but a couple of fouls and a costly tur nover by the Red Raiders’ Robert Tur ner allowed the Wildcats to pull away.

Thomas Gipson scored a tough bucket in the paint, and then after the turnover, Justin Edwards curled in a layup on the run-out. Jevon Thomas added two foul shots for a See RED RAIDERS, Page B2

Pacquiao OKs terms for Mayweather fight ASSOCIATED PRESS

LAS VEGAS — Manny Pacquiao flew to Los Angeles on Wednesday, preparing for a meeting with contestants of the Miss Universe pageant. Whether he has an even bigger date on May 2 seems entirely up to Floyd Mayweather Jr. Promoter Bob Arum said Pacquiao has agreed to all terms for what would be boxing’s richest fight ever, a bout with Mayweather that fans have been demanding for five years.

The question now is whether the long-reluctant Mayweather will finally sign on the dotted line for what could be an astonishing $120 million payday for the fighter who flaunts his money better than anyone.

“Your guess is as good as mine,” Arum told The Associated Press. “I don’t want to be antagonistic and say he’s not on board and not going to sign. The representation is that he is on board with this.”

Arum said negotiations with Mayweather’s representatives over the past few

weeks resulted in agreements on everything from the date and site of the fight (MGM Grand in Las Vegas) to purse split (reportedly 60-40 in Mayweather’s favor) to the type of gloves the boxers will wear.

But Mayweather has yet to personally agree to the fight, and the possibility remained that Arum was publicly discussing Pacquiao agreeing to terms to try to up the pressure on the unbeaten boxer to sign.

“We’re waiting for Mayweather to sign a document saying, ‘Yeah,”’ Arum said.

Just what Mayweather is thinking remains unclear.

Though he declared on Showtime last month that he wanted the fight, he rarely speaks to the media between fights and his manager, Al Haymon, almost never speaks publicly.

Arum said the negotiations have been at the highest levels, and Pacquiao agreed to all the demands by the Mayweather team.

“We took our stands on

Arum said the fight would be held at the MGM, where Mayweather has fought exclusively for years.

Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota has declared his eligibility for the NFL draft.

The Ducks quarterback announced on Oregon’s website on Wednesday that he would forgo his senior season. The school said he filed paperwork on Wednesday, a day before the NFL deadline.

He is expected to be a high first-round pick in the draft.

Mariota was the humble leader of Oregon’s high-flying of fense. The 13-2 Ducks defeated Florida State in the Rose Bowl in college football’s first playoffs, but fell 42-20 to Ohio State in the national championship game.

Mariota won every major award he qualified for, starting with the Heisman Trophy.

ATLANTA — Jerian Grant scored 12 points, Steve Vasturia added 11 points and No. 12 Notre Dame beat Georgia Tech 62-59 on Wednesday night.

Despite the absence of starting forward Zach Auguste, the Fighting Irish (16-2, 4-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) secured their best start to a season since 1978-79.

Pat Connaughton, V.J. Beachem and Bonzie Colson each finished with 10 points, and Demetrius Jackson had nine for Notre Dame, which has won 12 of 13.

Clutch trey lifts Lobos over AFA ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBUQUERQUE — Sam Logwood scored a career high 17 points and hit a crucial 3-pointer for New Mexico to help give the Lobos a 60-48 win over Air Force on Wednesday night.

Zach Kocur scored 12 points for the Falcons (8-8, 1-4 MWC), but no teammate reached double digits.

Although the Lobos (125, 4-1) never trailed in the second half, they could not extend the lead beyond five points until inside five minutes. A 7-0 run that began with five foul shots pushed New Mexico’s lead to 49-40.

But the streak ended when the Lobos’ Devon Williams was called for a flagrant foul, which turned into a four -point Air Force possession, cutting the lead to 49-44 with 2:20 left.

On the ensuing possession, Logwood buried a baseline 3-pointer just before the shot clock ran out and the Falcons did not threaten thereafter.

Hugh Greenwood had 11 points and six assists for New Mexico.

Dylan Ennis finished with 17 points and six rebounds, and No. 5 Villanova made a season-high 15 3-pointers to beat Xavier.

Josh Hart added 15 points and seven rebounds for the Wildcats (16-1 overall, 4-1 Big East), who have won three straight conference games by an average of nearly 15 points since their only loss of the season.

• No. 22 Baylor 74, No. 11 Iowa St.: WACO, Texas — Kenny Chery made a jumper with 4.7 seconds left and No. 22 Baylor pulled out a 74-73 win over No. 11 Iowa State after blowing a 14-point lead.

Rico Gathers had 14 points and 15 rebounds for the Bears (13-3, 2-2 Big

12), who had led throughout until Georges Niang made a jumper with 1:54 left for a 68-67 lead.

• No. 14 Maryland 73, Rutgers 65: COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Dez Wells scored 17 points, Jake Layman had a career-high 13 rebounds and No. 14 Maryland used a late surge to beat Rutgers.

• No. 15 North Carolina 81, North Carolina St. 79: RALEIGH, N.C. — Marcus Paige scored 23 points and No. 15 North Carolina barely held off a comeback.

Kennedy Meeks added 15 points and 10 rebounds for the Tar Heels (13-4, 3-1 ACC). They led by 12 in the second half and by double figures near the 4-minute mark before the Wolf Pack rallied.

Red Raiders Continued from Page B1

54-46 advantage.

Turner, who had a gamehigh 16 points for Texas Tech (10-7, 0-4), knocked down a 3-pointer with 53 seconds left, but he missed another moments later that could have made it 54-52.

Instead, the Wildcats grabbed the rebound and Edwards was fouled. He made both of his free throws for a 56-49 lead with 27 seconds left, effectively putting the game away.

“We played hard tonight, gave ourselves a chance there at the end,” Texas Tech coach Tubby Smith said, “but certainly Kansas State did what they had to do to ice the game.”

Marcus Foster led the Wildcats with 14 points.

Wesley Iwundu added 10.

It was the fourth straight loss to open Big 12 play for the Red Raiders, and their second defeat in the Sunflower State in the last four days. They lost at No. 9 Kansas on Saturday.

“We’ve got a tough time scoring,” Smith said. “We play good defense but we just have to manufacture points. Going with a smaller lineup has hurt.”

After the Wildcats took a 26-14 lead following a technical foul on Smith, the

Red Raiders regrouped to score the next eight points.

They had the ball for what should have been the final possession of the first half, too, but promptly turned it over.

Nigel Johnson’s buzzerbeating basket at the other end gave Kansas State a 28-20 lead.

Texas Tech kept whittling into the lead early in the second half, taking advantage of a big edge on the offensive boards to score easy second-chance points.

The Red Raiders got within 36-35 before Foster, struggling with his shot, finally got a 3-pointer to go.

“I hadn’t made a shot in a long time,” he said.

The Red Raiders remained close the rest of the way, at one point getting back-to-back dunks from Zach Smith and Isaiah Manderson to energize their bench. But the Wildcats always seemed to have an answer, whether it was Foster on the perimeter or Gipson on the inside.

“You know, we can’t stay complacent,” Foster said.

“You know, they came out and hit shots, that was the thing they did. We just got to keep grinding, defending and putting away teams.”

NM ranch has eye on rare ferrets ASSOCIATED PRESS

ALBUQUERQUE — A more than half-million-acre ranch that straddles the New Mexico-Colorado border and is owned by media mogul Ted Tur ner has asked for per mission to import endangered blackfooted ferrets.

The car nivores have struggled across the Great Plains, and the Ver mejo Park Ranch wants to bolster their numbers as part of a recovery program spanning 12 Wester n states.

It will be up to the New Mexico Game Commission to clear the way for a permit for the ranch. The panel is scheduled to consider the matter Thursday.

Biologists at the ranch have been working for years to recover the species, but this marks the first time they have to jump through an extra hoop of review because of a regulatory change involving the

Critics, including the Sierra Club and other environmental groups, contend the change was an attempt to stall the recovery of other more controversial endangered species, namely the Mexican gray wolf, and that the ferret was caught in the crossfire.

Mike Phillips, executive director of the Tur ner Endangered Species Fund, said he understands the need for transparency and is prepared to provide the state whatever information it needs about work being done at the ranch.

“With their new regulations, it’s important that we meet with the commission and make sure they’re aware of where the program is and what we’re intending to do,” Phillips said.

Black-footed ferrets were once found across a range that stretched from New Mexico and Texas to the Canadian border. Widespread poisoning of prairie dogs — the majority of a ferret’s diet — and the conversion of land for grazing wiped out most of the animals.

Today, unstable prairie dog populations and a new wave of plague have complicated recovery efforts.

Their short lifespans also don’t help.

ing off his worst statistical season since 2005, said he’s not sure he wants to return to Denver, adding, “There are a lot of things I’ve got to figure out.”

Same with Elway, who pledged to address his Oline this offseason after fixing his defense last year.

“Having been a quarterback, he knows that I’m going to try to take care of him and that of fensive line,” Elway said of Manning. “We always want to protect the quarterback. I think a change in scenery for those guys might help them also.”

If Manning retires, backup Brock Osweiler, who served a three-year apprenticeship under the five-time MVP, is ready to roll.

Osweiler, who mopped up four games this season and threw his first career touchdown pass three weeks ago, said: “I will approach this offseason the same exact way whether he comes back or doesn’t come back.”

Fox was the defensive coordinator for the Giants from 1997 to 2001 when Accorsi was the GM. Saints coach Sean Payton was the offensive coordinator for part of that time, and he is tight with Pace, who was hired out of New Orleans’ front office.

Among their dozen unrestricted free agents are star receiver Demaryius Thomas, Pro Bowl tight end Julius Thomas and nose tackle and defensive captain Terrance “Pot Roast” Knighton.

With defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio hired in Oakland, Knighton might be gone, too. Knighton, whom Del Rio drafted in Jacksonville, recently told The Associated Press, “I want to be wherever Jack is.”

DEAR ABBY: I am 42 years old and a divorced father of two. Earlier this year, I caused a fatal drunk driving accident. Once I came to and realized what I had done, I accepted responsibility and pled guilty to my crime. I have never before been in trouble with the authorities.

I believe God has forgiven me.

I know my extremely supportive family and friends have also forgiven me. But how do I forgive myself? I think about it and cry daily for my victim and that family. I pray they will find some comfort that I am behind bars.

I plan to volunteer and use my time to help others as I have done in the past, once I am free.

I also plan to tell my story to as many people as will listen to help stop the senseless act of driving under the influence.

I can never, and will never, forget what I have done. But I know I must forgive myself in order to move forward and start helping others. Any advice or suggestions you can give to help me work on forgiveness while I am in here would be greatly appreciated.

DEAR ABBY: I am the owner of an art gallery and often host shows with a reception to introduce artists. This generates interest in their artworks among patrons purchasing a piece for their home or to add to their collection. We provide hors d’oeuvres and beverages for our clients and potential clients.

Several individuals come to our receptions and heap food on their plates, often filling them a second time and sometimes a third. One woman has carried food out, saying it was for her husband who was waiting outside. (He must have been hiding, because I watched her get into her car alone and drive off.)

Abby, these people rarely even look at the art, let alone buy anything. They just eat and

leave. My gallery is in a fairly small community, so I don’t want to be rude, but how can I tactfully tell these people to ease on down the road?

Have an employee monitor the food display, and when someone is spotted taking food outside or pigging out, have the employee quietly intervene. As for individuals who come to your gallery only to eat — and by now you know who they are — greet them politely and suggest quietly that because it is clear that your taste in art and theirs is not the same, it would be better if they shopped elsewhere.

P.S. And if attendance to these openings is by invitation, simply stop inviting the offenders.

Betty, you did, and thank you for the good reminder! Folks, pretend you don’t know your house and try to find the number. On the mailbox? On the curb? On the front door? Is it blocked by bushes? Is the paint faded? Can you even see it?

Your life (or that of someone you love) could depend on this simple hint!

Heloise ##### Dear Heloise I’ve found that the best way to clean a digital TV screen is by using those little spray bottles of eyeglass lens cleaner. No streaks!

I read your column in the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.

Tim H., McKeesport, Pa.

Tim, thanks for being a loyal reader, and say “Hi” to my friends in Pittsburgh. I like your hint, but please be sure to spray the special cleaner on a soft cloth first, NOT directly on the screen. Do use a lint-free cloth; a microfiber one is the best. Keep sending in your hints.

Heloise ##### Dear Readers: Here are some other ways to use the silica gel pack found in many products: * Store with sterling silver to help keep tarnish at bay. * Stash in a box of envelopes to prevent the envelopes from sticking to each other. * Put a pack in a plastic zippered bag with important papers to keep them dry. * Tuck into small containers of nails, screws and pins to retard rust.

Always keep the gel packs out of the reach of children and pets.

Heloise #####

Dear Readers: Some of you may have received beautiful jewelry or bought some yourself last month. Since you have asked, I’m reprinting my Heloise Homemade Jewelry Cleaner formula so you can keep your jewelry looking new.

Mix equal parts household ammonia and water in a small bowl or jar. Immerse pieces in the solution and leave for a few minutes. Remove and gently clean with a soft little brush. Rinse with warm water, then dip in a bowl of rubbing alcohol and dry with a hand towel or microfiber cloth.

Caveats: This solution is only for genuine gold and diamond jewelry. It is NOT for jewelry with pearls or soft stones.

Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: The beautiful Christmas wreath does triple duty at my house. After Christmas, I pull anything “Christmas-y” of f and add plastic snowflakes and a silver bow. Come February, I tuck in a red heart among the snowflakes. By March, it’s done its duty.

Roswell Daily Record

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Awards season is underway in Hollywood, but one show will roll out green turf instead of red carpet and celebrate achievements like best mutt instead of best actor.

At the inaugural World Dog Awards hosted by comedian George Lopez, dogs will walk in on artificial grass and wag out with golden fire hydrant statuettes honoring the best in entertainment and social media.

There are no long speeches or fashion critics at the show airing Thursday on the CW Network. At this event, the podium is packed with dog treats, patches of grass allow pets to do their business and signs call for barking instead of applause. Plus, pooches lounge on couches and sniff out swag bags boasting pet food, collars and toys.

The World Dog Awards are the latest in a series of canine kudos weaving their way into Hollywood’s human awards landscape.

The Pawscars gives accolades to animals in film roles, including a tarantula that won best supporting arachnid a few years ago for appearing in “Salt” with Angelina Jolie. Voting is open for the show, scheduled to air March 4.

The Golden Collar Awards made their online debut in 2012, giving the top nod to a Jack Russell terrier named Uggie for his star turn in “The Artist.”

After a two-year hiatus, the show returns Oct. 4 and is open only to adopted shelter dogs that have appeared online or in TV, movies or commercials.

The World Dog Awards are different than other shows, executive producer Robert Horowitz said.

AP Photos Above: In this Jan. 10 photo, Duke, a 7-year-old Great Pyrenees who was elected mayor In Cormorant, Minn., lounges on a couch with David Rick during the 2015 World Dog Awards at the Barker Hanger in Santa Monica.

INSTRUCTION

“You have seen Westminster, you have seen dogs honored for their service and to promote adoption, but not a show that focuses on how important they are in everyday life,” he said.

Fans voted online for the winners of most categories before the show’s filming on Jan. 10.

They chose Most Pawpular Dog, for the most influential pooch on social media; Happiest Reunion, for the most inspiring videotaped reunion between a returning military member and a dog; and even Most Dog-Like Cat. In one of the most heated contests, five colleges competed for favorite costumed dog mascot.

The contenders are: the University of Tennessee, University of Connecticut, University of Georgia, Pace University and Mississippi State.

Lopez said hosting the show gave him a chance to “create an awareness of our most loyal companions, who love unconditionally and never take their eyes off of you.”

Scooby-Doo, the titular animated Great Dane who’s been investigating mysteries for decades, is receiving a lifetime achievement award, given to an iconic dog character in popular culture. Warner Bros. created a custom animated segment, allowing Scooby-Doo to “accept” his award from “NCIS” actress Pauley Perrette.

Dogs receiving star treatment at the show got to bring a plusone — a person to handle the other end of the leash, Horowitz said. Organizers expected about 100 dogs and 1,000 people to attend.
