DA files charges in school shooting JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

District Attorney Janetta Hicks filed charges Wednesday afternoon in 5th District Court against Mason P. Campbell, 12, for the shooting at Berrendo Middle School. He is charged with three counts of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon after he shot and wounded three people, two juveniles and one adult, inside the building.

The petition signed by District Court Judge Freddie Romero states that Mason “intended to injure” the three victims, although New Mexico State Police Chief Pete Kassetas called the shootings random during a press conference held Wednesday.

Campbell reportedly entered the school with the weapon concealed in a duf fle bag around 7:30 a.m. on Tuesday, went into the gymnasium, which was occupied by 500 students and opened fire.

Kassetas confirmed that the weapon used was a shotgun with the hand stock sawed of f. Three rounds were expended, the first into the ceiling and the remaining two went into the stands. The victims were shot at a 12 to 15 foot distance.

Kassetas said officers worked throughout the night.

“We completed searches

of the locker, the duffle bag and the residence on Sycamore. ... There were indicators that Campbell had planned this event.”

Gov. Susana Martinez reported that Kendal Sanders, 13, who was shot in the right shoulder and underwent surgery in Lubbock, Texas, is now listed in stable condition. The second victim, a 12-yearold boy, was shot in the neck and the face. Martinez noted that he had gone through two surgeries, but remains in critical condition.

The third victim was Kevin Hayes, a school security guard. According to Martinez, Hayes had his back turned when the first shot was fired. He approached Campbell to assist with efforts to disarm him and was hit by shotgun pellets.

Social studies teacher John Masterson was hailed a hero after he told the student to put the gun down.

“These children are not the same children that came into school yesterday,” Martinez said. She encouraged the students and parents to take advantage of counseling services and provided a contact number, 575-6231486.

She said she was touched when she spoke with one student who reported that he was “OK.” See SHOOTING, Page A2

Counseling available for returning students, staff JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

Parents and children took advantage of counseling services offered at Berrendo Middle School Wednesday. Several more therapists will be on hand for those returning today.

Chaves County CASA will be one of many providers assisting mental health professionals from the schools, city and state, said Executive Director Carrie-Leigh Cloutier.

“We’ll be there in the mor ning to guide the kids into the school and

help them with their trauma throughout the day,” Cloutier said.

CASA joined the crisis team with its trained courthouse dogs. The dogs are trained to work with traumatized children.

Chaves County FRW hosts mayoral candidates A total of 150 people attended the Chaves County Federation of Republican Women luncheon, resulting in record attendance. The reason for the interest? The group brought in four speakers, Wednesday, to discuss pressing political issues of the day, including Mayor Del Jurney, mayoral candidate Dennis Kintigh, Eastern New Mexico University - Roswell President Dr. John Madden and former Roswell Independent School District Superintendent Michael Gottlieb.

Both Jurney and Kintigh are running for office. Each presented his point of view about the upcoming election.

First to speak, Jurney spoke about the accomplishments made during his administration, including new openness and transparency in city government.

He stated that government officials meet regularly with the Roswell Police Department and Parks and Recreation Department.

“We meet monthly with the (Chaves) County and with Dexter and Hagerman city governments.”

Jurney said the city had extended the aviation industry with incentives supported by state representatives. He pointed to growth in the area of alternative power while working with Leprino foods to affect expansion and support of local agriculture.

He announced improvements made with the Roswell Police Department accomplished by hiring a police attorney, upgrading the computer systems and recent improvements in police staffing.

Jurney urged people to consider the positives. “Our general fund continues to grow while other cities in New Mexico struggle. ...

This is no time to change players.”

Kintigh expressed his sorrow at the tragic shootings at Berrendo Middle School. He asked people to remember in their prayers the first responders who “roll up on the scene to find broken children.”

For Kintigh, the most important issue was crime.

“We cannot pretend we don’t have a crime problem…. With nine homicides in the last year, Roswell now ranks with Washington, D.C.” While he acknowledged staf fing had improved recently, he said retention remains a problem. He said that between January 2011 and December 2013, 48 of ficers left the police department.

Kintigh also discussed the number of derelict structures in Roswell, which he stated were not only an eyesore but also magnets for crime.

Madden discussed the mill levy vote. Early voting for this issue opened this week. He provided charts

Excluded are the giant benefit programs like Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and food stamps that run on autopilot and are increasingly driving the gover nment deeper into debt.

Tea party Republicans, chastened after sparking a 16-day partial shutdown of the government in October in a kamikaze attempt to derail President Barack Obama’s health care law, appeared resigned to the bill.

“I don’t think there’s going to be a lot of opposi-

tion,” one tea party leader, Rep. Raul Labrador, RIdaho, said before the vote.

“The die has been cast for the next year on budget fights.”

To buy time for the Senate debate, Congress on Wednesday sent President Barack Obama a three-day funding bill in time to avert a scheduled shutdown at midnight. The Senate cleared that measure by an 86-14 vote and Obama quickly signed it into law.

The bill increases core agency spending by $26 billion over the fiscal 2013

year, after last year’s automatic spending cuts took them to $986 billion. But it’s $31 billion less than Congress passed last March before automatic cuts known as sequestration took effect.

The Pentagon faces a tight squeeze even as it avoids what would have been another $20 billion wave of automatic cuts.

The Pentagon’s core budget is basically frozen at $487 billion after most accounts absorbed an 8 percent automatic cut last year.

and graphs in the form of a handout. He reminded the audience that ENMU-R had already completed a number of capital projects and the for mer bond to be retired this year, meaning that the apparent increase was not as high as it appeared. He stressed that the people of Roswell saw the positive impact each and every day. He also noted that ENMU-R nursing students had the highest scores in the state with a 100 percent pass rate on New Mexico State Boards.

Gottlieb presented the opposition, discussing the cost of potential tax increases for the property owner. His emphasis was on rising prices across the board for the consumer while personal income often remains static, with a 70 percent increase in water, increases in home and health insurance.

“The dollars they (people) save are not worth what they once were.”

In bipartisan effort, House passes $1.1 trillion bill to fund government

WASHINGTON (AP) — A $1.1 trillion spending bill for operating the government until just before next fall’s election steamed through the battle-weary House on Wednesday over tepid protests from tea party conservatives, driven by a bipartisan desire to restore painful cuts in domestic and defense programs and show disaffected voters that Congress can do its job.

The bill swept through the House on a 359-67 vote and was on track for a big Senate vote by week’s end.

Republicans voted for the bill by a 2 1/2-1 margin, and just three Democrats were opposed.

The measure funds virtually every agency of government and contains compromises on almost every one of its 1,582 pages. It covers the one-third of gover nment spending subject to annual decisions by Congress and the White House, programs that have absorbed the brunt of budget cuts racked up since Republicans reclaimed control of the House three years ago.

Obama’s war request provides some relief to readiness accounts, however, though active duty troop levels would still be cut by 40,000 to 1.36 million. It includes $85 billion for overseas military operations, a slight cut from last year.

Domestic programs generally fare better and are kept, on average, at levels agreed to last year before the automatic cuts of 5 percent kicked in across the board.

“I’m trying to push it, shove it down,” he said.

However, she remarked: “It will come out at some point.”

Roswell Independent School District Superintendent Tom Burris said he was gratified at the support that he had received from other school superintendents across the nation.

He complimented the staf f and law enforcement, which he credited to the active shooter-lockdown training they had received. “The whole thing went like clockwork.”

The emphasis for the school will be the children. “Our teachers face a very difficult day. Every teacher is preparing for how to deal with the children. ... I have confidence in our teachers,” said Burris.

Martinez said she wanted to remind everyone how strong Roswell is.

Mason was taken to the Child Psychiatric Unit in Albuquerque.

Each charge is considered a third-degree felony, but New Mexico Statutes handle cases with juvenile offenders differently.

The New Mexico Juvenile Justice Handbook of April 2011, states a child is committed to a facility for the care and rehabilitation of adjudicated delinquent children. They may be up to the age of 21 if he or she commits a violent felony.

“It helps to reduce the (post traumatic stress disorder) that happens,” Cloutier said. “The outcomes are very good.”

One of the dogs was taken to the University Medical Center in Lubbock to stay with a family of one of the victims.

“The trauma can be pretty extreme, because there were so many witnesses,” Cloutier said.

In all, some 750 were involved, she estimated.

Parents typically know when their children are traumatized, Cloutier said.

The signs they should look for are nightmares, sleeplessness or complete withdrawal.

Many children are able to work through the crisis on their own, but parents should call for help if they are worried, she said.

“There’s fear. It’s important for people just to get on with it and get back to school,” Cloutier said. “It’s important for parents not to medicate children, and to allow them to express their feelings. The school is doing a fabulous job.”

Cloutier said the best solution is for all families to return their children quickly to school and get them back to a regular schedule.

“It really is a healthy environment for all the

Shooter’s family releases statement The parents and grandparents of Mason Campbell, the suspect in Tuesday’s shooting at Berrendo Middle School, have released a statement.

It reads: “On behalf of our entire family, we want to first say that our constant thoughts and our fervent prayers have been and are for the young man who was hurt and for the young woman who was hurt, Kendal Sanders, and we are praying for them to recover and for the medical personnel who are attending to them.

We understand that the young man’s family does not want his name released and so we will not identify him by name but we are praying fervently for him.

We are also praying for their families. We are horribly sad over this tragedy on so many levels. We are praying that God will be with everyone who has been affected. For all of the anguish that many suffered yesterday, our family offers our heartfelt condolences and remorse in words that we cannot fully express.

We love our young son and grandson dearly as does everyone in his extended family. His whole family is heartbroken as are many

STATE BRIEFS

Grand jury finds NMSP shooting justified

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A Santa Fe grand jury has found New Mexico State Police were justified in last year’s fatal shooting of a woman after a car chase.

Jeanette Anaya was shot in the head and back after police say she aggressively backed her car toward an officer in November.

Medical examiners determined the 39-year -old Santa Fe woman had cocaine in her system at the time.

An attorney for Anaya’s family says he doesn’t believe the shooting was justified or a bumping maneuver that the police officer used to stop Anaya’s car. He’s asking for an independent investigation from some other agency.

The Albuquerque Journal reports the grand jury met Tuesday and deliberated for 50 minutes before reaching its decision. The panel heard from 12 witnesses and saw 100 pieces of evidence.

Geothermal plant now operating in Hidalgo County

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A new geother mal plant located in southwester n

New Mexico is providing electricity to PNM Resources, the state’s largest utility.

The Lightning Dock plant constructed in Hidalgo County by Cyrq Energy Inc. began production in late December and is generating about 4 megawatts of electricity, the Albuquerque Journal reported.

The New Mexico Economic Development Department said the geothermal plant is the only one in New Mexico capable of utility-scale production.

The $43 million plant pumps naturally hot water from deep under the ground to the desert surface to heat a fluid that spins turbines to produce electricity. The slightly cooled water is then reinjected back into the aquifer.

Some residents worry that the project could detract from water quality or availability, but Cyrq says the water won’t be contaminated, spent or wasted.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Family members and legal guardians of developmentally disabled New Mexicans sued Gov. Susana

COMMUNITY TO WELCOME STUDENTS BACK

Martinez’s administration Wednesday over cuts in services.

The lawsuit filed in federal district court seeks to restore the services lost by individuals and stop the administration from continuing with changes implemented to control costs in a Medicaid-funded program serving about 4,000 people.

One of the main disputes is over a new method for evaluating recipients to deter mine their level of services, which can include 24-hour residential care as well as occupational and speech therapy.

The lawsuit said 700 recipients have challenged the accuracy of their assessments and categories of care they were assigned.

The new evaluation system uses “vague, subjective and arbitrary criteria and procedures,” the lawsuit said, and violates the due process rights of recipients.

Lawmaker proposes bill on replacing Navajo speaker

FARMINGTON (AP) — Newly proposed legislation in the Navajo Nation Council sets up a process for appointing a replacement for Speaker Johnny Naize if he is removed from office.

Community members plan to gather along the perimeter of Berrendo Middle School today starting at 7 a.m. to welcome students back to school.

Interested parties are encouraged to bring balloons, streamers and signs displaying encouraging messages such as, “We love you,” and “Roswell supports you.”

His daughter knew the victims and the suspect.

“She’s a little shaken,” Ware said. “She’s going to probably be talking to our pastor.”

Ware wanted to thank the police and sherif f’s departments for the way they handled the evacuation and getting the students to the buses.

“All of it was fantastically handled,” Ware said.

Tom Graham said he thought the meeting went really well.

“I think the school district, the teachers and the staff at Berrendo have done an exceptional job and continue to do so,” Graham said.

Graham is planning to take his daughter back to school today, and that she was doing well. The availability of counseling at the school was a good idea, he said.

“It’s good that they have it available for kids, if they need it,” Graham said.

OBITUARIES

Arturo Troy Analla

Arturo Troy Analla was bor n April 5, 1967, in Roswell, to Raymond and Rachel Analla. Being the youngest of seven brothers, Troy laced on the boxing gloves at the tender age of 4. Troy followed his dad, Raymond Sr., and his older brothers to the boxing gym every day. Troy started his pugilistic endeavors at the Roswell Police Department, then at the Roswell Boys Club and finally with the Roswell Rocks Boxing Club, where he won three New Mexico State Golden Gloves titles in 1984, ’85 and ’86!

Troy was a southpaw like his older brother, John, who also captured five New Mexico Golden Gloves titles in his day!

As a young Roswell fighter, T roy, had much to prove, because he had six older brothers who captured New Mexico Golden Gloves titles in the past! In all, the Analla Brothers won a total of 27 New Mexico Golden Gloves titles!

This record still stands today. T roy Analla was trained by his father, Raymond Analla Sr., Willie Hall Sr., and Jerry Martinez. All of Troy’s brothers were very proud of him because he added three more championships to the growing list of boxing championships!

The Analla brothers were tabbed as the “Magnificent Seven” by the Roswell New Mexico Boxing Hall of Fame! All seven brothers were inducted to the Boxing Hall of Fame in 2009 to include Raymond Analla Sr. Raymond Analla Sr. received the Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012, along with Willie Hall Sr. and Sammy Burke from Las Cruces. Not only did he achieve many milestones with boxing, but he was given the gift of an artistic hand, which was seen and admired by all the students who walked the hall of the old Missouri Elementary School.

Sadly, Troy passed away Jan. 13, 2014, at home surrounded by loved ones.

He lived a short life but was able to leave an impression on everyone he met. He was always positive and he carried with him the charisma all his older brothers possessed. He will be remembered to many as always being happy, as well as for the love he had for life.

He is preceded in death by his father, Raymond Analla; mother, Rachel Analla; and brothers: Reynaldo, John and Ralph Analla. Those left to carry on his memory are his children; daughters: Meighan Salas, of Roswell, Kaylee Dellinger; and son, Arturo Jr., both of Albuquerque, girlfriend, Roseann Sanchez, who never left his side; brothers: Raymond Jr.

BENGHAZI ATTACK WAS PREVENTABLE, SENATE PANEL SAYS WASHINGTON (AP) — Both highly critical and bipartisan, a Senate report declared Wednesday that the deadly assault on the American diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya, could have been prevented. The account spreads blame among the State Department, the military and U.S. intelligence for missing what now seem like obvious warning signs.

For the first time in the much-politicized aftermath, the report also points at Ambassador Chris Stevens, who was killed in the attack. It says that the State Department ended a deal with the military to have a special operations team

provide extra security in Libya, and that Stevens twice refused an offer to reinstate the team in the weeks before the Sept. 11, 2012, attack.

The military also takes criticism in the report for failing to respond more quickly on the night of the assault.

On the 11th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks in the U.S., armed militants stor med the diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, setting the building on fire. Stevens, infor mation technology specialist Sean Smith, and CIA security contractors Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, both former Navy SEALs, were killed over the course of two

A3

battles that night.

Stevens died of smoke inhalation after he was taken to a “safe room” in the besieged compound.

The Obama administration first described the assault as a spontaneous mob protest of an antiIslamic, American-made video. Such a protest did occur at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo earlier that day. Republican critics say the administration was reluctant to deal publicly with a terror attack weeks before the presidential election.

Officials corrected their description days after the attack, but by then it had become a hot political issue that has continued to dog the administration.

OPINION

Webber brings private sector roots to governor’s race

BY HAROLD MORGAN NEW MEXICO PROGRESS It’s candidate petition time in New Mexico.

My notification came recently when a man braved the January semi-cold seeking Democrats to sign petitions for a half-dozen candidates.

Sensing a live one—an active Democrat—I asked his thoughts about the five Democratic candidates for governor. Though clearly involved enough to do the hard work of going door to door, he had little knowledge of the candidate group and was generally underwhelmed.

Getting enough people to sign nominating petitions is how one gets on the ballot. In other words, people seeking to participate in the grand process of becoming an elected official do not just appear at the office of the elections official and say, “Put me on the ballot.” The petition process is complex and requires real work. Peti-

NEW MEXICO PROGRESS

tions for statewide or federal offices must be filed Feb. 4. Even if a potential candidate gets enough signatures, an interim exercise, the pre-primary convention is required.

Why someone runs for any office combines complex motivations, two keys being ego and the desire to serve. The ego part is real and necessary. The question is whether ego motivation dominates. My perspective here includes one massively unsuccessful race for city council in Albuquerque.

In “Cowboy in the Roundhouse,” the late three-term Gov.

Bruce King explained his first race, which was in 1966. “When I was completing my second term (as House Speaker) in 1966, many people began to ask me to run for governor. I rather liked this idea because I saw so many things I could do for New Mexico.”

Gov. Susana Martinez can be beaten this year. Her predecessor, Bill Richardson, is correct on that point. It would take special circumstances, a combination of massive error and/or scandal on Martinez’s part and an attractive Democrat as an alternative.

To win any political race, obviously the candidate must score the approval of a majority of the voters. In 2010 that was 321,219 for Susana Martinez out of about 600,000 people voting. To consider a candidate, again obviously, voters need some idea of what the candidate is about. T ime and money are the ingredients of the educational process.

The five announced Democrats

Roswell Daily Record

are, alphabetically, Gary King, Linda Lopez, Howie Morales, Lawrence Rael and Alan Webber.

King, now attorney general, is somewhat known. After three losing races, two for governor and one for Congress in the southern district, he found the AG slot open and a young, unknown Republican opponent.

Lopez and Rael might be slightly known. Both ran for lieutenant governor four years ago and lost in the primary. Rael got 24 percent of the 126,449 votes. Lopez, a state senator, got 15 percent to finish fourth. A few of those voters might remember Rael and Lopez, but it will be few. A reasonable if crabby question for both Rael and Lopez (especially Lopez) is: Given your performance in the lieutenant governor primary, how do you win a much tougher race?

Morales, a state senator from Silver City, and Webber are totally unknown. Rael, a bureaucrat,

and Morales, an educator, are totally government types, King and Lopez pretty much so.

With private sector roots, Webber is the outlier. Webber cofounded a magazine, Fast Company, in Boston. Eventually, says www.alanfornm.com, “Investors sold the magazine for $365 million.”

With his family and, I presume, some of the $365 million, Webber came to Santa Fe in 2003, joining the New England expatriate group. Among the candidates, Webber seizes what I define as The Left, calling himself “a progressive Democrat.” The website’s “About Alan” section opens with, “Alan Webber, a progressive Democrat...”

Webber will be interesting, which is needed and will be good.

For success, he will need to spend large buckets of his own money.

Going From Unreliable to Untrustworthy?

The global consulting and technology services company Accenture agreed in September 2011 to pay the U.S. government $63.6 million to resolve a whistle-blower lawsuit alleging the company submitted false claims for payment under numerous contracts with federal agencies for information technology services.

"Kickbacks and bid rigging undermine the integrity of the federal procurement process," Tony West, assistant attorney general for the Justice Department’s civil division, said at the time.

"Companies profiting off the breach of their government contracts will pay," said Brian Miller, the General Service Administration’s inspector general.

So, how has the Obama administration made Accenture pay for its alleged kickbacks, rigged bids and fraudulently inflated prices (other than the $63.6 million slap on the wrist to which the Justice Department agreed in 2011)?

By awarding Accenture a one-year, $45 million contract to take over healthcare.gov, the Obamacare online portal that had a disastrous, glitch-ridden rollout in October and still is not operating as smoothly as the average insurance company website.

The Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services, which oversees healthcare.gov, is still developing a work plan for Accenture, which may very well increase the final value of the contract beyond $45 million.

Perhaps it will even top the $63.6 million settlement Accenture paid the government for undermining the integrity of the federal procurement process. That would be prima facie evidence that, in federal contracting, no bad deed goes unrewarded.

Speaking of which, the Obama administration cut ties Friday with CGI Federal, the original contractor for healthcare.gov. The IT firm, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Canadian company CGI, had a two-year federal contract valued at $100 million.

That was despite the fact that CGI’s performance on a medical registry for diabetes patients in the Canadian province of Ontario — a cohort of less than 1 million people — was so horrendous, including three years of missed deadlines, that the provincial government jettisoned its $46.2 million contract with the IT firm.

The question is, how companies with such problematic track records as CGI Federal and Accenture nevertheless managed to score lucrative contracts with the Obama administration.

Some suggest that the relationship between first lady Michelle Obama and her Princeton University classmate, CGI Federal senior vice president Toni Townes-Whitely, may have helped CGI win its contract.

And there’s speculation that the $286,168 President Obama has received from Accenture’s political action committee and the firm’s employees and their family members may have influenced its just-announced award.

We are not prepared to say that CGI Federal and Accenture received sweetheart contracts from the Obama administration. But we don’t think it unreasonable to say that CGI’s record of incompetence and Accenture’s record of gaming the federal procurement process should have disqualified those firms from being awarded government contracts.

DEAR DOCTOR K: I hear that dairy milk, which I’ve been drinking all my life, may not be healthy.

Should I switch from dairy milk to a different kind?

DEAR READER: When I was a kid, every mother (surely including mine) believed that dairy milk was healthy. Television commercials called dairy milk “nature’s most perfect food” and intoned “you never outgrow your need for milk.”

I think I remember hearing that every time I watched Davy Crockett on television. (Yes, I know that dates me.)

In the decades since then, we’ve learned that saturated fats in the diet raise blood cholesterol levels — and that, in turn, increases the risk of heart disease and strokes.

Dairy milk has a little more than 3 percent butterfat, much of it satu-

Annoying greenies on the defense

After decades of controlling America’s energy narrative, on January 5, CBS’s 60 Minutes fired a shot that has put the green lobby on the defensive.

Then, two very different media outlets lobbed blows that could represent a new trend; a change of tone in Washington.

The 60 Minutes piece, featuring correspondent Lesley Stahl, aired, perhaps intentionally, at a time when it may have had the lowest possible viewership, as it aired opposite the NFL playof f game between the Green Bay Packers and the San Francisco 49ers. You may have missed

I put 1 percent dairy milk on my morning cereal. To my taste, 1 percent is plenty creamy, but skim milk just isn’t creamy enough. In fact, after years of using 1 percent milk, when I’m traveling and the only option in a restaurant is 2

These days there is a variety of non-dairy, fortified milk beverages on the shelves of most grocery stores — and plenty of my friends and patients swear by them.

Here’s a guide to help you choose the milk that’s best for you: — Dairy milk is a good source of calcium and vitamin D, which promote bone health. Many dairy milk products are also fortified with other vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin A and phosphorus. (Non-dairy milks that are fortified can also be good sources of these vitamins and minerals.) The more butterfat, the higher the calories, total fat, saturated fat and cholesterol.

— Soy milk is almost identical to dairy milk in its nutritional con-

The idea got a catchy name: ‘Cleantech.’ Silicon Valley got Washington excited about it.

President Bush was an early supporter, but the federal purse strings truly loosened under President Obama. Hoping to create innovation and jobs, he committed north of a $100 billion in loans, grants and tax breaks to Cleantech.

But instead of breakthroughs, the sector suffered a string of expensive tax-funded flops.

tent. Most brands have moderate amounts of fat, which make them similar in calories to lowfat (1 percent) dairy milk. Soy milk is also fortified with vitamin D, vitamin A and calcium. Soy milks are much higher in protein than other nondairy milks. This is an important difference for vegetarians and vegans who are trying to meet their protein needs.

— Nut milks come in varieties such as almond, walnut or hazelnut. They are lactose-, soy- and gluten-free. The unsweetened versions are also lower in calories than other milks. However, they provide much less protein than dairy and soy milks.

— Coconut milk. One cup of a coconut-milk beverage has the same number of calories as a cup of skim milk. But coconut milk is

— Grain and seed milks. Rice, oat and quinoa milks are examples of grain and seed milks. They have higher total carbohydrate and sugar contents. The rarer seed milks, such as hemp, sunflower and sesame seed, have the highest fat content of all the alternatives.

On my website, AskDoctorK.com, I’ve put a table showing how the various milks compare in nutritional value.

Response to Mr. Moran

A typical Democratic response to any criticism is to accuse the Republican Party of what the Democrats have been doing. Their theory, apparently, is if you repeat the same misinformation enough times, a gullible public will believe the worst.

Perhaps, to Barcott, eight bankrupt companies do not offer enough “evidence” to write green energy’s obit. How much would he need?

If Stahl had read the entire list of Obamabacked taxpayer -funded green-energy projects that have gone bust—let alone those that are circling the drain, she would have truly been fatigued.

Together with researcher Christine Lakatos, I’ve been following the foibles for the past eighteen months. Our bankrupt list (updated May 2013) includes 25—17 more than Stahl cited (and there have been new failures since then).

Calling the “cleantech crash” segment a “hit piece,” Barcott claims: “the evidence of success is

Ironically, while the believers busily “hit back,” the news tells a different story.

One of the projects featured by 60 minutes is KiOR—a Columbus, Mississippi, plant that turns wood products into gasoline, diesel, and fuel oil funded in part by venture capitalist Vinod Khosla— has shut down in a “costcutting move.” A January 9 report states: “the debate in Washington in changing alternative fuel standards drove down prices so low that the company couldn’t af ford to continue production for now until it can get efficiencies to the point where it is producing at least 80 gallons of fuel for every ton of wood.”

To be safe, or if the beetle proves to be one that can attack your piñon trees, you can provide some protection for the trees by enclosing the wood in clear plastic covers. Place these wood piles in 4x4x4 piles (half cord) in sunlight, and then cover the wood with clear plastic (not black or other colors), and seal the base of the plastic with soil. This will enclose any beetles so that they cannot escape to infest your piñon trees. The reason you should use clear plastic is to create a greenhouse effect causing heat to accumulate under the plastic. Colored plastic will not work effectively. In the winter, there may not be enough heat accumulated to kill all the beetles, but some at the top of the plastic may be exposed to enough heat to die and the plastic will confine any beetles that survive to prevent infestations in nearby trees. The beetles will die and your piñon trees will be safe if the temperature under the plastic reaches 160 degrees during the summer (or on warm days).

A. Are you sure that the beetles are bark beetles? Is it possible that they are wood borers, or twig beetles? The type of beetles makes a difference. Some bark beetles attack ponderosa pines while other types of bark beetles attack piñon trees.

Some species of bark beetles will attack both. Bark beetles may cause infections by various microorganisms and some bark beetles have specialized pockets for carrying these microoganisms. The blue stain fungus is one such disease and an important factor in killing trees.

Wood borers generally attack recently cut or dying trees. These may be trees that have been cut and allowed to remain in the forest. Based on your description of the fire wood, with summer cutting and the curing process, borers are the most likely culprits. Wood borers can do significant damage to the wood, but are unlikely to move to healthy piñon trees. However, the term “healthy” may be a deceptive word in New Mexico, especially after last year’s drought early in the year. Apparently healthy trees may be stressed and attractive to the bores and other beetles.

Twig beetles are small beetles that usu-

Innuendos and misleading information is their stock in trade.

The main fact missing in Mr. Moran’s letter is that the National Republican Party had nothing to do with the defeat of his favorite state Ex-Senator Jennings. That was all handled quite successfully at the local level. Yes, the goal of the Republican Party is to elect as many officials as possible on the city, county and state levels and then to move on to national elections.

Among his “results,” Rapier states: “40 percent of the demonstration-scale and commercial-scale projects selected from the FOAs [Funding Opportunity Announcements] were mutually terminated by the DOE and the recipients after expending more than $75 million in taxpayer dollars.” Rapier concludes: “I think the lesson here is that political wishes continue to trump scientific realities, and taxpayers are left to pay the bills. … If only our political leaders understood that you can’t mandate technical breakthroughs, even if you require money to be spent trying to do so.”

Amid the blows fired upon the renewable energy industry this past week, The Chicago T ribune (hardly a defender of right-wing policies) piled on with a January 5 op-ed encouraging “Congress and the White House to stop manipulating the tax code as America’s de facto energy policy: Thorough federal tax reform should sunset this arbitrary favoritism for wind energy and other politically favored industries.”

The other lobs, from CNBC and Fox News, landed on January 6.

CNBC’s Kudlow Report featured a “what happened to global warming” segment in which Larry Kudlow scof fs at the “all

wrong” predictions that have now “come unglued.”

His guest, Steve Hayward—a visiting professor at the University of Colorado, Boulder—stated: “Global warming is going away” like so many other scares before it. Hayward claimed that environmental crises follow a pattern: “Find a problem and blow it up into a world-ending crisis and demand endless political solutions.” They laughed at the “sheer comedy of the ship getting stuck in the ice in Antarctica,” calling it “an ecotourism stunt that backfired badly.”

On Fox Business, Stuart Varney’s “Stuart Says” feature was: “Annoying greenies influence policy that hurts U.S.” In his 2minute-18-second monologue, Var ney suggests that we “respond to this climate change demagoguery with ridicule.

Frankly, the global warm-

ing crowd now looks ridiculous. People are laughing at them.”

A6 Thursday, January 16, 2014 OBITUARIES

Steven Gregg “Stever” Johnson

Steven Gregg “Stever” Johnson, 64, passed away on Sunday, Jan. 12, 2014.

Stever had degenerative disc disease. For the last seven months, he experienced a great deal with the long-standing chronic pain and subsequent surgeries.

Stever was born on April 27, 1949, in Lubbock, Texas, to Auvie and Sara Johnson and was the eldest son. His nickname was given to him by his dad, with whom he shared many of the same loves, like good bird dogs, hunting, fishing, and being married to a good woman who could cook!

Stever is survived by his wife, Rhonda, of the home; son, Jay Gregg Johnson (Jennifer), of Junction; daughter, Jodi Lee Murphy, of Garland, Texas; and Steele Houston Johnson, of Atlantic Beach, N.C. He is also survived by his mother, Sara “Saint Nanny,” Johnson, of Huntsville, Ala.; a brother, Jim Johnson (Barbara), of Denver, Colo.; and sister, Maxie (Ron) of Huntsville, Ala. He was known by his beautiful grandchildren as Pop. Jay’s children are Dilan, Kaitlin, Kylee and Danielle. Jodi’s girls are Sara and Maci.

Stever grew up in Abernathy, Texas, and then moved to the hill country (Junction), when he was in high school. He was very active in 4H, raising and showing champion pigs. He played football in high school the only way he knew how, with all heart and gave everything he had at every game.

As a young man, he joined his dad in the real estate business and

S up p o rt t h e U n i t e d Wa y

OBITUARIES became a broker. He worked in real estate for many years. He also worked as a rural carrier associate with the U.S. Postal Service in Texas and transferred in that position to Roswell, in 1995, when he and Rhonda relocated to raise their youngest son, Steele.

Stever was a charter member of Grace Community Church who prayed for anyone and everyone, but especially for those he loved. He graduated from Word of Faith Bible College in the ’80s in Dallas, Texas, where he learned to “chew” on the Word of God. With the many years he suffered, his relationship with Christ and the knowledge of His Word, helped him press on during his disability for the last 15 years, when it became too much for him to bear in his own physical strength.

A memorial service is scheduled for Friday, Jan. 17, 2014, at 2 p.m. at Grace Community Church, 935 W. Mescalero, in Roswell.

Family will greet friends from 5 to 7 p.m., Thursday, Jan. 16, 2014, at LaGrone Funeral Chapel.

He is also survived by siblings: Jared Leadingham and wife, Jessica, Brian Leadingham and partner, Suzanna Lester, Erin Leadingham; and mother, Lane Leadingham, and her fiancé, Jay Blakeney; grandparents: Ed and Bette Leadingham; and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins.

Jason graduated from Ruidoso High School in 1999, where he was active in football, baseball, wrestling and drama. He was an avid outdoorsman and hunter, but devoted his time and energy to his kids, as they were the center of his life. His true passion was quality time spent with his family and friends. He was full of life and endearing smiles, a contagious laugh, and a larger-thanlife sense of humor; he was sincere, honest, and extremely loyal. He never met a stranger and embraced life to the fullest.

Although his life was short, Jason will be remembered by the many, many friends and family whose lives he touched. He was an incredible father, brother, son and friend. He will be missed.

Sam then opened up his own business called, “Sam’s Automotive and UFO Repair,” which didn’t last long because he moved on to what he always wanted and that was to teach.

He worked at Goddard High School and later transferred to Roswell High School. At both high schools, Sam touched the hearts of every single student that passed through his classroom. Students looked up to him as he served as a role model to many, always encouraging to succeed in life and obtain an education.

He loved anything that had to do with education.

He served for several years as president of police council for the Headstart Program, leaving a tremendous impact. He was such a blessing to all who knew him and always willing to help those in need. He would take the shirt off his back to give it to anyone who needed it and was always looking out for the

Roswell Daily Record well-being of others. He was a member of St. John’s Catholic Church and a member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles.

He is survived by his mother, Mary Aguirre, of Hagerman; Cecilia Najera, companion and mother of his kids; son, Andrew Romero, of Roswell; daughters: Ivette Romero and husband, Edgar Aguilar, of Roswell, and Adelisa Romero and husband, Enrique Murillo, of Roswell.

He also had numerous nieces and nephews.

Pallbearers will be Andrew Romero, Andres Villa, Edgar Aguilar, Enrique Murillo, Rene Or nelas, Lee Lehman, Glenn Huddleston and Sandra Romero. Honorary pallbearers will be his grandchildren: Ivan Romero, Sophia Aguilar and Liliana Murillo.

Court upholds conviction of Michael Jackson doctor

LOS ANGELES (AP) — An appellate court on Wednesday unanimously upheld the involuntary manslaughter conviction of Michael Jackson’s doctor, determining there was substantial evidence of his guilt presented at trial.

The ruling by the California 2nd District Court of Appeal came less than three months after former cardiologist Conrad Murray was released. He served two years in jail for causing Jackson’s 2009 death.

The 68-page ruling includes lengthy recitations of the evidence against Murray, who was convicted in 2011 of giving Jackson a lethal dose of the anesthetic propofol in June 2009 while the superstar was preparing for a series of comeback concerts titled “This Is It.” The six-week trial focused on Murray’s care of Jackson, including nightly doses of propofol to help the entertainer sleep.

In its opinion, the appeals court determined that Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor was within his right to impose the maximum sentence of four years.

Murray’s “callous disregard for Mr. Jackson’s health and safety was shown throughout the trial from the manner in which he administered a number of dangerous drugs to Mr. Jackson without the appropriate medical equipment, precautions or personnel in place, and to the manner in which he left Mr. Jackson unattended,” the opinion states.

ROSWELL 60/25

“The evidence demonstrated that Mr. Jackson was a vulnerable victim and that (Murray) was in a position of trust, and that (Murray) violated the trust relationship by breaching standards of professional conduct in numerous respects,” it said.

The former physician was released from jail in October due to a change in California law requiring nonviolent offenders to serve their sentences in county jails and as a result of credits for good behavior.

In his appeal, Murray argued that the judge who oversaw the case improperly excluded jurors from hearing key evidence and should have sequestered jurors.

The appellate court disagreed and said it found no errors in the judge’s rulings, including one allowing the trial to be televised.

Murray’s trial lawyers attempted to introduce evidence of Jackson’s financial difficulties and his treatment by other doctors, but Pastor ruled testimony on those issues would be irrelevant.

Kershaw, Dodgers agree to $215M deal Thursday, January 16, 2014 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

Section

Roswell Daily Record

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Pitcher Clayton Kershaw agreed Wednesday to a $215 million, seven-year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press, a deal that makes the two-time Cy Young Award winner baseball’s first player with a $30 million average salary.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the agreement had not yet been announced.

Kershaw receives the most lucrative deal for a pitcher, breaking the mark of $180 million set by Justin Verlander last March for his seven-year contract with Detroit.

Kershaw would have been eligible for free agency after the upcoming season if the new deal hadn’t been reached. He was eligible for salary arbitration, and those figures were set to be exchanged on Friday. He was coming off a two-year, $19 million deal.

General manager Ned Colletti said last week that both sides had been negotiating.

“It’s our desire to sign him here for a very long time,” Colletti said.

The average salary of $30.7 million tops the previous high of $27.5 million, set by the New York Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez as part of a 10-year agreement December 2007. While Roger Clemens had a contract with a listed

salary of $28 million with the Yankees in 2007, he joined the team in June and actually made $17.4 million.

The Dodgers had baseball’s second-highest payroll at the end of the regular season last fall — more than $236 million.

Kershaw’s agreement, first reported by ESPN.com, is baseball’s seventh of $200 million or more. Among current contracts, it trails only the agreements of Rodriguez, Cincinnati first baseman Joey Votto ($251.5 million over 12 years), Los Angeles Angels first baseman Albert Pujols ($240 million over 10 years) and Seattle second baseman Robinson Cano ($240 million over 10 years).

A left-hander who turns 26 in March, Kershaw won NL Cy Young Awards in 2011 and 2013. He was 16-9 for the NL West champion Dodgers last year and led the league with 232 strikeouts, and his 1.83 ERA was the best in the major leagues since Pedro Martinez’s 1.74 for Boston in 2000. He has led the NL in ERA in each of the last three years.

Kershaw has been a powerful, yet low-key, presence on the team. In the offseason, the Dallas native has worked to build a charitable legacy alongside his wife, Ellen. The couple has made yearly trips to Africa, where his foundation that focuses on helping at-risk children built an orphanage.

‘Omaha’ keeps Broncos foes off-balance Vikings pick Zimmer as new coach ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Peyton Manning’s road to the Super Bowl has taken an unexpected detour. Through Omaha, of all places.

On Wednesday, Manning pretended to shed a bit of light on his new favorite city, the name of which he shouted out 44 times from the line of scrimmage during Denver’s playof f win over San Diego last weekend.

“I’ve had a lot of people ask me what ‘Omaha’ means,” Manning said. “It’s a run play, but it could be a pass play, or a play-action pass, depending on a couple of things. The wind, which way we’re going, the quarter and the jerseys we’re wearing. It varies from play to play.”

With the AFC title game looming and the number of reporters quadrupling for his weekly session with the media, No. 18 was AP Photo

If Peyton Manning and the Broncos end up with hardware at the end of the playoffs, Omaha figures to play a prominent role.

at his deadpan best.

All joking aside, though, America’s new obsession with Omaha — a top trender on Twitter during last Sunday’s game — provides yet another window into the Manning mystique.

At some points last Sunday, he used it as a snap count. At others, it was a dummy cadence.

And at others, it may have meant something — or nothing — but only the other 10 guys on the field wearing orange would’ve known.

By simply per fecting their shenanigans with the snap count, Manning and the Broncos found a big advantage. They drew the Chargers offside five times. Then, once the San Diego defenders realized they’d been duped, they spent the rest of the game a halfsecond slow.

Next Sunday, Manning faces New England with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. The Patriots know what they’re in for.

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — Russell Wilson and the Seahawks offense haven’t exactly produced impressive numbers during the past month.

But ask Wilson and coach Pete Carroll if there are worries heading into Sunday’s NFC championship game against San Francisco and, while they say they would like to see more consistency, they say the numbers aren’t the important thing.

“We’re always looking for more and he is too and all that,” Carroll said. “But as long as our football team is playing well and we’re playing within the formula and we’re playing good defense, we’re running the football, See SEATTLE, Page B3

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Mike Zimmer is finally a head coach in the NFL. The Minnesota Vikings think now is the time for the veteran defensive coordinator.

The Vikings announced on Twitter on Wednesday night that they had hired Zimmer for their top coaching job.

“I’m extremely excited to bring a championship to the state of Minnesota and to the great fan base of the Vikings,” Zimmer said in a video posted on the team’s Twitter account. “I can’t wait to get to work.”

Long after reports first surfaced about the hire, the Vikings remained quiet.

Their silence was strange, considering a report by ESPN that they had already requested and received permission from Cleveland to interview offensive coordinator Norv Turner for the same position in Minnesota. The top headline on the team website touted an area winner in the annual NFL Punt, Pass & Kick contest.

That doesn’t mean the Vikings weren’t delighted about the ninth head coach in their 54-year history. Tight end Kyle Rudolph, center John Sullivan and defensive end Brian Robison were among the players who expressed excitement about the former Bengals assistant via their Twitter accounts.

“Fired up about Coach Zimmer! As a Cincy kid he’s been fun to watch there and can’t wait to work with him!”

Rudolph tweeted.

For the Bengals, the news was bittersweet. Zimmer, who has been an NFL defensive coordinator for the last 14 seasons, spent six of those with Cincinnati.

“Today is one of the happiest and yet saddest days for me. Happy Coach Zimm finally gets to be a head coach and spread all of his knowledge,” cornerback Terence Newman tweeted.

The Bengals were third in the league in yards allowed and fifth in points against this season, though they lost in the first round of the playoffs for the third straight year.

“Gonna miss you coach Zimmer! Wish you nothing but the best in Minnesota.

You brought out the best in each of your players! So honored to have been coached by you!” tweeted linebacker Rey Maualuga.

Zimmer replaces Leslie Frazier, another former Bengals defensive coordinator who was fired Dec. 30 after the team finished 5-10-1 this season.

General manager Rick Spielman interviewed at least seven candidates. He and Vikings owners Zygi Wilf and Mark Wilf settled on the one who was widely considered around the league to be the most overdue for a head coaching job.

Zimmer has interviewed for several vacancies in recent years, including this month with Tennessee.

So the top three and four of the top five teams in the final AP Pro32 power rankings have made the NFL’s Final Four. Nothing surprising about that.

As for the outcomes in the conference title games, well, read on.

And remember, Pro Picks went 40 in the divisional round, 3-1 in the wild-card round for picking outright winners.

No. 5 New England (plus 6 1/2) at No. 2 Denver Ah, the classic rivalry: Manning vs. Brady.

That’s the juiciest of the matchups here, but there are many others. First, let’s focus on Peyton vs. Tom Terrific.

Brady holds a big edge in their 14 head-to-head meetings, 10-4, but they have split two AFC

championship faceoffs.

Manning has had, by far, the more dynamic season, the best statistically of a 16-season pro career, what with the 55 TD passes and the 5,477 yards passing.

Not to mention a 14-3 record.

He’s also had a lot more support on his side, particularly at the wide receiver and tight end positions.

“I really think the team needs to be commended for even getting to this point,” Manning says.

“There are a lot of teams that had disappointing losses last year: Atlanta, Washington. Everybody says in that locker room, ‘Let’s get back next year.’ It just doesn’t happen. It’s hard to get back.”

New England has built a 13-4 mark in part on Brady’s brilliant leadership and adaptability. He’s

Roswell Daily Record

made Julian Edelman into a consistent of fensive threat (105 catches, 1,056 yards), and has tur ned to the ground game because the rest of his receivers are new or inexperienced.

“We keep handing it off and those guys just run so hard and do such a great job running and finding the holes where they can just slice through there and gain as many yards as they can,” Brady says.

The defensive matchups seem to favor the improving Patriots rather than the up-and-down Broncos. New England might have a better idea on how to slow former Patriots star Wes Welker more than Denver knows how to deal with Edelman, for example.

And there’s the coaching battle between Bill Belichick and John

Fox, one that Belichick won a decade ago in the Super Bowl, when Fox was at Carolina.

For the folks who are tired of seeing the Patriots in the big game, Pro Picks apologizes ...

UPSET SPECIAL, BEST BET : PATRIOTS, 30-28

No. 3 San Francisco (plus 3) at No. 1 Seattle The coaching tussle here is even more intriguing because Seattle’s Pete Carroll and San Francisco’s Jim Harbaugh don’t exactly spend quality time together. In fact, there’s a spicy feud dating back to their college days.

So the satisfaction of getting to New Jersey in two weeks will be increased for either coach by beating the other.

The 49ers also have the added

incentive of coming so close last year at New Orleans before losing the Super Bowl to Baltimore.

Don’t be fooled — that has driven them this season.

“We want to win. We’ll do whatever it takes,” running back Frank Gore says. “We have that Super Bowl feel, we didn’t finish like we wanted to, and we have a chance to get back.”

A third meeting in one season means there will be few if any secrets for either side to bring into this one. Look for a knockdown, drag-out contest between the fiercest and most efficient defenses in the league.

Also look for the Seahawks to prevail.

SEAHAWKS, 19-17

49ers must find ways to deal with Seattle’s noise SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Jim Harbaugh will turn to lip reading, motioning and even sign language if he has to in order to communicate with Colin Kaepernick to keep things running smoothly in the deafening noise of Seattle’s home stadium.

Kaepernick plans to repeat his calls as many times as necessary in the huddle during the NFC championship game Sunday to make sure his teammates hear him.

“He just has to be louder,” center Jonathan Goodwin said. “There’s really no special tricks. You’ve just got to be as loud as possible and hope everybody hears it.”

Solid communication through the chaos at CenturyLink Field will be paramount for Kaepernick, who had one of his worst performances as a pro in a 29-3 Week 2 loss to the Seahawks.

The game turned early when Cameron Bairstow, who finished with 27 points, went to the bench with two fouls and 14:24 remaining. That set up UNLV (11-6, 2-2 Mountain West) for 20-3 run behind two 3pointers from Kevin Olekaibe, ending with a 28-12 Rebels advantage.

New Mexico (12-4, 3-1) slowly got back in the game, closing to 74-73 with 1:24 left after Bairstow dropped in two foul shots. But with 30 seconds left he missed a baseline jumper with a defender in his face.

Olekaibe then hit two from the line with 26.8 seconds left.

The Lobos’ had three chances to tie the game, including a clean look by Cullen Neal on the final play, but the ball hit and rim and bounded away.

Texas Tech led all the way and was able to hold off a late comeback attempt by the Bears (13-3, 1-2) after they pulled to 76-66 on a 3-pointer by Taurean Prince with 2:02 left. That was the closest Baylor had been since late in the first half, but it got no closer down the stretch.

Kenny Chery scored 22 points and Prince had 13 for the Bears. They finished with only six assists, a season low for a team averaging 16.3.

All five Red Raiders starters scored in double figures. Crockett matched the 19 points he scored in a loss at Texas last weekend.

Texas Tech kept Baylor’s top scorers in check for much of the night. Cory Jefferson, the Bears’ leading scorer (13.5 points per game), had just eight and center Isaiah Austin was well below his 10.7 average with four.

The Red Raiders simply had more energy and Baylor looked lethargic until late in the game. And the Red Raiders shot well.

Texas Tech made 57 percent of its 49 shots to 41 percent for Baylor, which took 63 from the field.

After hitting on all 21 of their free throws in their win at TCU on Saturday, the Bears made only 16 of 24 from the foul line this time.

Texas Tech dominated the boards, outrebounding Baylor 35-19, and the Bears couldn’t even capitalize on Texas Tech’s errors. On nine Red Raiders turnovers, Baylor managed only two points.

The Red Raiders hit 62 percent of their shots from the field in the first half.

Meanwhile, Baylor had no assists and just 12 rebounds while making only 25.9 percent of its field goals, including several chippies down low.

Texas Tech had 22 rebounds and owned the paint on offense. The Red Raiders got 24 points inside, compared to 14 for their much-taller opponents.

Texas Tech used an 11-0 run, including a dunk by Crockett, layups by Randy Onwuasor and Kravic and a jumper by Dusty Hannahs, to lead 43-22 at the break.

In two losses to Baylor last season, Texas Tech scored just 48 points in each game.

Baylor failed to make a field goal in the final 4:24 of the first half.

blast, but it is that much more important this week as they head to what is considered the NFL’s loudest venue.

“Other teams may approach it differently,” Harbaugh said. “You’ve got to be able to communicate without being able to hear very well. You can simulate that somewhat in practice.

Signals, hand signals, verbal signals, body language, reading lips, different ways. But, we’ll practice that. We’ve been in some of those environments.”

While Kaepernick blames poor execution, and not noise issues, for two disappointing defeats in Seattle over the past 13 months, he realizes he will have to holler at the top of his lungs to avoid further problems getting the snap off in time.

“You stick to the basics,” wideout Anquan Boldin said Wednesday.

The 49ers (14-4) had the secondmost delay of game penalties in the NFL during the regular season with eight and have frequently struggled to get plays off on time, forcing them to waste timeouts.

And that’s in the best of circumstances, not in the Seattle noise. In the first meeting with the Seahawks, the Niners committed two false starts, one delay of game and needed to use two timeouts on one third-quarter

Browns owner details coaching search in letter

CLEVELAND (AP) — Browns owner Jimmy Haslam is asking Cleveland fans to be patient as he looks to replace the coach he fired after one season.

With criticism growing as the search drags on, Haslam sent a letter to fans Wednesday in which he explained the Browns’ “methodical” hunt for a “strong coach.”

Haslam fired Rob Chudzinski last month following a 4-12 season, forcing the Browns to look for their seventh full-time coach since 1999 and fourth in six years.

The owner said the team has spoken to a “number of outstanding candidates” and indicated he and CEO Joe Banner will meet with assistant coaches currently in the NFL playoffs.

“We have purposefully been very methodical in our approach,” Haslam said in the letter released by the team and posted on its website. “We believe it is very important to stay disciplined to this process and to interview all of the candidates on our list. We are strongly committed to finding the right person to coach the Cleveland Browns.”

Buffalo confirmed Wednesday night that it had granted the Browns permission to interview Bills defensive coordinator Mike Pettine. The 47-year-old just completed his first season with Buffalo after four as the New York Jets’ defensive coordinator.

The Browns were the first team to fire a coach after the season, and they’ll be the last to hire one now that the Minnesota Vikings have agreed to a contract with former Cincinnati defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer, who interviewed for the Cleveland opening a year ago.

When Chudzinski was dismissed, Haslam made it clear the Browns would take as long as needed to find a “proven winner.”

But as days turned to weeks and several candidates took jobs elsewhere or other

names surfaced and were quickly dismissed, a perception took hold that the front office was not on the same page.

There also have been rumblings that the Browns have been spurned by candidates and are fixated on hiring Denver offensive coordinator Adam Gase.

Haslam’s unexpected letter seemed to be the team’s attempt to quell some of the outside noise.

Cleveland has interviewed six known candidates and the team intends to meet with Gase when the Broncos’ season ends.

Gase was the first candidate contacted by the Browns after Chudzinski was let go. The 35-year-old Gase told the Browns and Vikings he wanted to wait until after the season.

Although Gase appears to be the frontrunner, there’s no guarantee he’ll be hired by the Browns — or if he even wants the job.

Gase’s interview likely will take place soon after the Broncos are finished playing.

That could be as soon as Sunday or as late as Feb. 3, if Denver advances to the Super Bowl.

Haslam said the Browns, who haven’t been to the AFC playoffs since 2002, will remain patient.

“We are prepared to wait as long as necessary because this is a very important decision,” said Haslam, Cleveland’s owner since 2012. “Everyone in our organization is committed to finding the right leader for our team.”

QB Tom Brady sits out Patriots practice

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The New England Patriots are taking Tom Brady’s absence from practice in stride.

Four days before the AFC championship game against the Denver Broncos, the star quarterback missed practice Wednesday because of illness and his right shoulder, the Patriots said in their practice report.

Brady said last week that he had a cold.

Then he led the Patriots to a 43-22 win over the Indianapolis Colts in an AFC playoff game on a rainy Saturday night. Earlier in the season, he was listed on the injury report with the shoulder condition but usually practiced with it.

Backup Ryan Mallett did double duty Wednesday. He was the quarterback for the offense and also emulated Denver quarterback Peyton Manning for the defense.

“I’m not worried about Tom because I know Tom,” Mallett said.

Wide receiver Julian Edelman, who caught 105 passes from Brady this season, said practice is different without him.

“But Ryan came in and he ran the offense,” Edelman said. “And, more importantly, I was just kind of worrying about what I had to do to get my assignments and get my work in. I’m sure other guys were thinking the same thing.”

Brady’s scheduled media availability was cancelled. He’s scheduled for another one Friday.

As for Mallett, “it was fun,” he said. “I took a lot more reps, though. I was a little more fatigued at the end than normal so that was the only difference.”

Coach Bill Belichick provided no details on Brady’s absence.

Asked the last time that Brady surprised his coach of 14 years, Belichick said, with a smile, “this morning.”

What was the surprise?

“We’ll keep that between Tom and I,” he said.

drive as they fought the play clock.

Last year, they had two delays and were again forced to use two timeouts on offense when they couldn’t get the play off.

San Francisco had similar problems in its wild-card win at Green Bay two weeks ago.

In the 49ers’ Sept. 15 road loss to the Seahawks, Kaeper nick threw three interceptions and completed only 13 of 28 passes for 127 yards for a career-worst 20.1 passer rating. He also took three sacks. And on Dec. 23, 2012, at Seattle, Kaepernick went 19 of 36 for 244 yards with a touchdown, one interception and a sack in a 42-13 defeat.

In all, the 49ers have committed seven turnovers and been outscored 71-16 in their last two trips to Seattle.

“We do have to protect the football.

That’s something we haven’t done very well up there. I think going into this game we have to make sure we do that so we can come out with a win,” the quarterback said. “It’s a different game. It’s a whole separate entity. It’s a little bit louder in Seattle.”

200 yards passing and the Seahawks had less than 300 yards of total offense.

The Seahawks were helped by a huge day from Marshawn Lynch, running for 140 yards and two touchdowns in his best game since Week 10. And the passing numbers against New Orleans were skewed by the awful weather conditions with strong winds and heavy rain making throwing the football a challenge.

But the lack of consistency by the passing game versus New Orleans, against a team Wilson had carved up earlier in the season, only heightened fan worries heading into Sunday.

each year than he was the year before. That, to me, speaks to his work ethic in the offseason, his refusal to be complacent or satisfied.”

—Manning’s season low in passing yardage came against New England in Week 12. He threw for 150 yards, as Belichick drew up a game plan that dared the Broncos to run. They did, gaining 280 yards on the ground (224 from Knowshon Moreno), but it didn’t produce a ‘W.’ “Coach Belichick is the best coach that I’ve ever competed against,” Manning said. “I think

“We’ve played some really good defenses and they’ve made some plays.

There’s definitely room for improvement, especially on my part and that’s the thing I look forward to every week,” Wilson said.

“I always think I can get better and there’s tons of throws in there that I can make and I know I will make. So I have no worry about that. I think the ultimate goal is for us to win football games and to be explosive and make the clutch play when we need to make the clutch play.”

Ultimately, it’s Wilson’s job to be a caretaker of the ball and not take undue risks in the passing game.

That’s what Carroll wants

For the Heat, the gains are largely financial, both short- and longterm.

Anthony was making $3.8 million this season — more than double what Douglas is earning — and is on the books for another $3.8 million next season. The deal should save the Heat more than $10 million in salary and luxury tax payments over the next two seasons, and that may help when LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh can all decide to become free agents this summer.

“It’s always dif ficult trading a player like Joel who was a big part of the past two championship teams and will always be a part of the Miami Heat family,” Heat President Pat Riley said in a statement. “This trade gives us great flexibility moving forward in our journey to win an NBA Championship.

“No, I really haven’t,” he said.

Carroll believes that because being too aggressive can sometimes lead to turnovers and no one values possession more than Seattle. That’s why the Seahawks led the NFL this season with a plus-20 tur nover dif ferential — they were extremely aggressive on defense and cautious on offense.

What Seattle has really been missing over the past five weeks is the ability to establish a passing game down the field beyond intermediate routes.

According to information from STATS Inc., Seattle has completed just 2 of 16 passes with one touchdown and two interceptions on passes that have traveled more than 21 yards in the past five games. Even the intermediate passing game of throws between 11 and 20 yards is lacking, with Wilson going 13 of 24.

team to make an excessive number of throws downfield, but it was always part of the game plan. In each of the first 13 games this season, Wilson had at least one completion on a pass of 21 or more yards.

He was first shut out in Week 14 at San Francisco, which coincided with Seattle’s offensive sputtering.

“I feel like early in the season we took a lot of shots downfield and the defenses have taken notice to that and are trying to limit that,” wide receiver Jermaine Kearse said. “I feel like we just have to continue to stay at it, continue to practice our game plan and just let the plays come to us.”

and are admirers of Parcells from his days coaching that team.

After one tumultuous year as the defensive coordinator for Atlanta, when Falcons coach Bobby Petrino quit midseason in 2007, Zimmer went to Cincinnati to work for coach Marvin Lewis. In 2009, when his wife, Vikki, unexpectedly died, Zimmer was named the winner of several NFL assistant coach of the year awards.

Zimmer has a fiery personality, as evidenced by his profanity-laced appearances on HBO’s “Hard Knocks,” which featured the Bengals in 2009 and 2013. That overt intensity is a contrast to Frazier, who went 21-33-1 in three-plus seasons with one appearance in the playoffs.

Continued from Page B1

The 57-year -old Zimmer played at Illinois State and spent 14 seasons coaching in the college ranks before being hired in 1994 as an assistant with Dallas. He got a Super Bowl ring the following season as defensive backs coach.

Then he became defensive coordinator of the Cowboys in 2000 and spent seven seasons at that post, the last four under coach Bill Parcells.

Zimmer led defenses in Dallas that operated in both the 4-3 and 3-4 alignments, including the 2003 group that surrendered the fewest yards in the league.

this game, that means you probably haven’t been preparing hard enough all season long,” he said.

For teams trying to stop him, part of the preparation during playoff time means figuring out what “Omaha,” or any other word of the week, might mean on any given snap.

The word “Omaha” isn’t all that uncommon. Manning’s brother, Eli, has used it. So has Brady, in fact.

Asked how it came about, Manning again played it coy: “It wasn’t my pick, I guess,” he said.

it’s safe to say he’ll go down as the greatest NFL coach of all time.”

—Finally, Manning is 10-11 career in the playoffs with two trips to the Super Bowl and one win. A pedestrian record for someone so good. One thought: Manning’s preparation is so meticulous during the regular season that there’s nowhere to go once the playoffs arrive and the games get more important.

He gives that theory no credence.

“I guess what I would say is, if you have to prepare harder for

professional who worked hard every day and we wish him the best in the future.”

And because point guard Mario Chalmers is currently dealing with an Achilles problem, Douglas also could provide some insurance there as well. Another option is that the Heat choose to simply absorb whatever’s left on Douglas’ $1.6 million contract this season to open a roster spot, one that they could possibly target free agent center Andrew Bynum with.

Anthony played in 12 games for Miami this season, logging more than three minutes just four times.

He scored a total of six points and has been largely an afterthought in the Heat rotation since the team signed forward Chris Andersen to be their top big-man reserve last year.

The Heat also are awaiting the retur n of center Greg Oden, who has not played in a regular-season game in more than four years but has been steadily progressing in a rehab program since signing with Miami in the offseason.

B4 Thursday, January 16, 2014 DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: I have been seeing a guy, “Karl,” for eight months now, and we have never had sex. After two or three months, I brought up the subject. He said he was stressed because he had just lost his job. He also said there is never any privacy at his place because he has roommates/tenants. I offered to go to my place, but he said that with my son there, it’s the same issue.

Karl says he’s very attracted to me, but doesn’t want our “time” together to be ruined by his current money problems. I told him I understood and I have waited. I also explained that it makes me feel insecure and unwanted.

He now has a job, but we still haven’t had sex. He has, in the interim, told me he loves me and wants to marry me. I constantly worry that there’s someone else and wonder what’s wrong with me. I love Karl, too, but I don’t know what to do.

Please help.

LOVE, BUT NO SEX IN NEW JERSEY DEAR LOVE, BUT: Is there any intimacy AT ALL in your relationship with Karl? Is he affectionate? Is there any physical response when he holds and kisses you? If the answer is no, your boyfriend may have a physical or emotional problem, be asexual or gay.

Before agreeing to marry him, I recommend you schedule some time alone together by spending a few romantic weekends at a hotel or motel. It may give you a better idea of what your future would be like if you two decide to tie the knot.

#####

DEAR ABBY: I am a 30-year-old gay man who works in an office with 20 women. In

COMICS

the five years I have worked here, many of my co-workers have either gotten married or had children.

Our office has a tradition of throwing showers for the lucky ladies, and I am always asked to contribute money toward food for the party or an extravagant gift.

While I’m happy to donate to a charity or help a friend in need, I wonder if a wedding or a baby shower would be given for ME? Am I selfish for feeling hesitant to donate money or gifts when it’s likely the favor will never be returned?

MINORITY MALE IN TEXAS

DEAR MINORITY: I don’t think you are selfish for feeling the way you do. In fact, it’s understandable. However, in the case of a wedding or baby shower, people give gifts as a way of offering congratulations and good wishes. And I would hope that, even if same-sex marriage isn’t recognized by the state of Texas, your co-workers would do something to honor you if you had a spiritual ceremony, which some religious denominations offer.

#####

DEAR ABBY:

I am turning 60 and naturally looking a little “worn.” My man friend keeps telling me I need a facelift and to lose 10 pounds, so I’m starting to save my money. Something tells me he wants a “hot chick” and thinks he’ll have one once I get these procedures done. It’s expensive. What do you think?

Family Circus

LOOSE-FACED LOUISIANAN

DEAR LOUISIANAN:

It’s not only expensive; as with any other major surgery, there is some risk involved. If you had said you wanted cosmetic surgery because YOU thought you needed it, I would say to go ahead. However, if it’s only because your man friend is pushing you, then he should save HIS money and offer to foot the bill.

P.S. He must be an optimist because there is no guarantee that with 10 pounds off and a new face you wouldn’t start looking for a younger man. Some women do.

FROM HELOISE

KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Heloise: I have a question about the best way to STORE SWEATERS. I purchased some clear totes and thought of keeping them in those with some moth cakes. Would this be the best way to store them?

Julie V., via email

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

If your totes are plastic, then that’s not the best way to store your sweaters for the long term, but if it’s just a seasonal thing, then you probably are OK. And moth cakes really don’t kill moths; they are supposed to repel them. If the clothes are clean and in a wellsealed container, then there is no need for moth cakes — which smell pretty bad, by the way!

Before packing away the clothes, wash or dry-clean them, making sure there are no stains. You can roll them to prevent creases.

Sweaters need to be kept away from moisture, so don’t store the container in an attic or a basement, if possible. Find a closet, storage space underneath a bed or some other area in your home with the same temperature, etc., as your bedroom.

Heloise

#####

Dear Heloise: I often mail photos to some of my relatives. I have found a trick that helps the photos get to their destination unbent. I place the photos (I usually send only one or two at a time) in a card with a quick note. Then I take a piece of thin cardboard or card stock that I have saved, cut it to size and place it in the envelope as well. It gives the photos extra support. Just be careful — depending on how much you put in each envelope, the postage may go up.

Leslie in San Angelo, Texas Dear Heloise: When I heat a small dish of food in the microwave, I used to put the item in the center of the microwave. When it was done, I had to take out a hot dish. I discovered a better way. I put the item to be cooked off to one side.

When it is done, I slip a hot pad into the microwave on the opposite side and quickly place the dish on the hot pad.

W.W. in Salem, Ore. Dear Heloise: I have a small child, and spills on the floor are a common occurrence. To help save our carpet, I place a large blanket on the floor in the room we are in most. It easily can be picked up when we have company or if it needs to be washed.

A Reader in San Antonio Very smart! Works with some pets, too.

Heloise

#####

Dear Heloise: When hanging a calendar, the top two corners tend to fold over. I punch the hole on each month a little lower and slide a plastic slide bar used to hold term papers together over the top to keep it straight.

Williams, Djokovic into 3rd round at Aussie Open

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Serena Williams wore a fitted pink blazer into her second-round match at the Australian Open, giving the impression she wasn’t feeling the heat.

And after her 6-1, 6-2 win over Vesna Dolonc on Wednesday, the second consecutive scorching day at the season’s first major, Williams said she could remember hotter matches.

By improving her career mark to 60-8 at Melbourne Park, she equaled Margaret Court’s record 60 match wins at the Australian Open in the Open era.

On day three at Melbourne Park, the center court at Rod Laver Arena was — at least according to the two fans holding up a sign — “Serena’s Arena.”

The heat topped 40 Celsius (104F) during the 63-minute match, and peaked at just under 42 C (108 F) later during Novak Djokovic’s 6-0, 64, 6-4 win over Leonardo Mayer. Second-seeded Djokovic, aiming to be the first man in the Open era to win four consecutive Australian Open titles, didn’t face a break point.

Williams fended off the only break point she faced with an ace, one of her 10 in the match. She hit 24 winners, sticking to the ideal strategy of keeping the points short on a hot day and

extended her winning streak to 24 matches.

She said didn’t even go outside Tuesday because conditions “were a little bit extreme,” adding that the prospect of the scorching temperatures had even interrupted her sleep.

“I kept waking up in the middle of the night last night just paranoid. I just wanted to stay hydrated,” she said. “The last thing I want to do is to cramp in this weather. It can happen so easy.”

Williams next meets No. 31-seeded Daniela Hantuchova, who was on court for 3 hours, 13 minutes in her 6-3, 3-6, 12-10 win over Karolina Pliskova.

Temperatures topped 42 Celsius (108F) on Tuesday, and there were a total of nine retirements in the first round, equaling a Grand Slam record.

It wasn’t quite as stifling Wednesday, but the forecast is for the heat wave to continue until Friday.

Li Na, the 2011 French Open champion and a two-time finalist at Melbourne Park, had a 6-0, 7-6 (5) win over 16-year-old Belinda Bencic and will next play No. 26 Lucie Safarova in the third round.

No. 9 Angelique Kerber advanced and will next meet American Alison Riske, who trounced Yanina Wickmay-

Blount leads Pats to AFC title game

FOXBOROUGH, Mass.

(AP) — Check out the video of LeGarrette Blount.

Not the one of him punching an opponent at a college game. Or the one showing him smacking an NFL teammate during a preseason practice.

Try these: Blount returning kickoffs for 83 and 62 yards, and dashing 73, 36 and 35 yards for touchdowns, all in his last two games.

Given a chance by the New England Patriots to revive his career, the 250pound back is running over and away from defenders while leaving behind images of a hot-headed youngster putting his future in jeopardy.

Back-to-back rushing performances of 189 and 166 yards have sparked a run on his jersey.

“It’s nice to know that people like me out here,” he said. “It’s nice to know that they’re enjoying the wins.”

At the Patriots Pro Shop, “in recent weeks, Blount’s jersey is in great demand,” team spokesman Stacey James said Wednesday.

Bill Belichick is thrilled to have the real No. 29 for Sunday’s AFC championship game against the Broncos in Denver.

“LeGarrette’s been great,” the coach said. “He’s done the things we’ve asked him to do. When a player does that, I don’t think he can do anything but earn the respect of all the people around him.”

It’s quite a turnaround from an ugly moment in college when Blount punched Byron Hout, a Boise State defensive end who had taunted him at the end of Oregon’s loss in the opening game of Blount’s senior season in 2009. Blount was restrained by teammates and fuming as he was led toward the locker room — a scene still just a mouse-click away.

Oregon coach Chip Kelly suspended him for the season, and then reinstated him after eight games when he met academic and behavioral requirements.

They reunited last summer when the Patriots went to Philadelphia for joint practices with Kelly’s Eagles.

“I had a chance to give him a big hug and I’m very proud of him,” Kelly said. “I told him he shouldn’t be defined by an incident that happened on Sept. 3rd, 2009, because that’s not the type of person LG is.”

At Oregon, Kelly referred Blount to former Indianapolis coach Tony Dungy for advice.

“He’s been through a lot,” Dungy told The Associated Press. “I do know that people at Oregon really respect him. He’s made the most of

his second opportunity. He had to go through a lot to get reinstated and he did that. He took care of things and really did what he had to do and that showed me that he truly did want to succeed.”

But the punch and suspension prompted every team to bypass him in the draft. So he signed as a free agent with Tennessee. That’s where he threw a punch in training camp after his helmet was knocked off for the second straight play.

“He apologized, and I said he didn’t have to apologize,” Titans coach Jeff Fisher said then. “His past is his past. Is that the first punch you’ve seen in camp this year? No. I’m not disappointed whatsoever.”

They released him after camp, hoping to put him on the practice squad. But Tampa Bay signed him and he rushed for 1,007 yards as a rookie.

Buccaneers coaches felt Blount had trouble blocking, receiving and learning the playbook. And when they drafted running back Doug Martin in 2012, Blount’s days in Tampa Bay seemed numbered.

“The media can put you in whatever kind of light,” said Patriots cornerback Aqib Talib, who became friends with Blount when they were teammates at Tampa Bay. “He’s the same guy here, just a regular guy.”

During last year’s draft, he was traded to the Patriots for running back Jeff Demps and a seventh-round draft choice. Now he’s a win away from the Super Bowl after his two historic games — a team record 334 all-purpose yards in the regular-season finale against Buffalo and the 166 yards rushing that tied the Patriots single-game playoff record. He ran for four touchdowns in the 4322 divisional-round win over Indianapolis and eight in his last three games.

“He’s a load,” said Broncos safety Omar Bolden, who faced Blount in college.

“They’re definitely putting a challenge on the DBs, man, to make those tackles oneon-one in the open field. So far, it’s a formula of success for them, so I don’t see why they wouldn’t come in here and do the same thing.”

Blount’s production is finally matching what Belichick had seen.

“Certainly, he’s had some outstanding games recently, but he’s been a solid player for us all the way through,” Belichick said. “Nothing has been given to him. He’s earned everything he’s gotten. I think that’s totally respected by everybody in the organization.”

The tournament’s heat rule went into effect in the first match on Margaret Court Arena, giving No. 15-seeded Sabine Lisicki and Monica Niculescu a 10-minute break after the second set. Niculescu won 2-6, 6-2, 6-2 and will next play No. 22 Ekaterina Makarova, who followed up her win over Venus Williams with a 6-2, 7-5 victory over American Irina Falconi.

Djokovic had a brief scare while serving at 3-0 in the first set when he turned over on his left ankle, tumbling to the court.

“It was just I slipped a little bit,” Djokovic said. “It was an instant discomfort, but it was OK after.”
