School board president under challenge

By Dylanne Petros Record Staff Writer

Two candidates are running for Position 4 on the Roswell Independent School District board.

The winner of the race will earn a four-year term, starting March 1, on the five-member RISD board.

Current Board President Pauline Ponce, who has been in office since 2011, is up for re-election and Ruben Sanchez is challenging her.

James W. Waldrip, secretary, is also up for election this year and he is being challenged by Carey D. Smith.

The school board’s other three members, Dr. Peggy Brewer, Mackenzie Hunt and Eloy Ortega Jr., are not up for reelection in 2015.

Elections for the RISD school board are Feb. 3.

Voters may cast ballots from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Feb. 3 at any of eight voting convenience centers.

The voting convenience centers are located at Del Norte Elementary School, 2704 N. Garden Ave., Washington Avenue Elementary School, 408 N. Washington Ave., West Country Club Church, 700 W. Country Club Road, El Capitan Elementary School, 2087 W. Bland St., University High School, 25 W. Martin St., East Grand Plains Elementary School, 377 E. Grand Plains Road, Chaves County Clerk’s Office Area D, 1 St. Mary’s Place, and Nancy Lopez Elementary School, 1208 E. Bland St. In addition, early voting continues until Friday at

the Chaves County Clerk’s Office in Area D. The following are answers from Ponce and Sanchez to a candidate questionnaire compiled by the Daily Record. Waldrip and Smith’s responses will be published at a later date.

Why are you the best candidate for the school board?

Ms. Ponce: “I have nearly 35 years of experience in education. I held numerous positions in the Roswell Schools such as an acting superintendent, an assistant superintendent for human resources, a director, a coordinator, an assistant principal at Berrendo Middle School, a principal at Berrendo Elementary School and a teacher in grades first, second, fourth, seventh and

eighth grades. I served as a New Mexico State Representative in the New Mexico Legislature. As a state representative, I was a member of the House Appropriations Committee; the committee developed the budget for the State of New Mexico. I also was a member of the House Education Committee. This committee developed the budget for the public schools of New Mexico. Additionally, I was a member of the Legislative Education Study Committee; this committee developed legislation that affected the operations of public schools in New Mexico. In our community, I served on numerous non-profit boards such as United Way, Roswell Public Library, Working Mothers’ Day Nursery and many others. During my varied

experiences, I have dealt with many educational, financial, difficult student situations, personnel/ human resources issues, and acquired expertise in school law and am recognized throughout the state of New Mexico as an expert.

I have been a trainer for numerous school districts throughout the state in all

of the issues listed above.”

Mr. Sanchez: “I am a life-long resident of the East Grand Plains community. I am a United States Air Force Veteran, Iraq War Veteran and still proudly serving this great country today. I will bring the values, education and See ELECTION, Page A3

Committee discusses Gov. Martinez appoints local attorney naming streets after Ryan to New Mexico Game Commission Cesar Chavez, MLK

By Jeff Tucker Record Staff Writer

By Randal Seyler Record City Editor There may be a Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard and a Cesar Chavez Avenue in Roswell’s future.

City Councilor Elena Velasquez presented the suggestion to the Streets and Alleys Committee on Tuesday.

“I have had this idea to name streets after Cesar Chavez and Martin Luther King for some time,” Velasquez said. “I visited with several people, as well as with Councilor Juan Oropesa, who chairs this committee, and I have had a lot of support for my idea.”

City Engineer Louis Najar presented his out-

line of a proposed method for changing the name of a street within the city limits to the committee members, and noted that the city needs to have a process in place for the naming of streets.

“There is a lot of ‘domino effect’ in changing street names, you have to think about the post office, maps, and even the Internet, things like Google,” Najar said.

“One reason I wanted to do this is that when you visit so many other cities, you see a Martin Luther King street,” Velasquez said. “These are two See STREETS, Page A3 Today’s Forecast

A Roswell attorney very active in the oil and natural gas industry has been appointed by Gov. Susana Martinez to the State Game Commission, the governing body of the New Mexico Game and Fish Department.

Elizabeth “Beth” Atkinson Ryan, 33, was among several appointments to boards and commissions announced by Martinez on Monday.

“I’m very, very excited,” Ryan said Tuesday. “I’m thrilled and honored that the governor found me fit to serve on such a dynamic, active board.”

Ryan’s term on the State Game Commission

Ryan is scheduled to expire Dec. 31, with the possibility of re-appointment.

The governor’s appointees have yet to be confirmed by the state Senate. Once confirmed, Ryan would become a member of the State Game Commission, which has the responsibility to provide

an adequate and flexible system for the protection of game and fish in the state, and to provide for the use and development of natural resources for public recreation and food supply.

Ryan said the commission’s purpose is to conserve, regulate, propagate and protect the wildlife and fish within the state using a flexible management system that ensures sustainable use for public food supply, recreation and safety.

“I hope to continue the goals of the commission for conservative wildlife management for the state,” Ryan said. “We are going to have a commission meeting here in Roswell since I’m new to the

commission. Of course, we’ll let the public know when that’s going to happen.”

The commission meets about six times a year in various communities round the state. The New Mexico Legislature created a three-member State Game Commission in 1921. The commission eventually became a seven-member citizens’ body that sets hunting and fishing regulations, hires the Department of Game and Fish director, oversees spending of a more than $35 million annual budget and sets the department’s overall direction.

New head of New Mexico child welfare agency lists priorities SANTA FE (AP) — New Mexico lawmakers on Tuesday challenged the new head of the state child welfare agency, questioning her about what she plans to do to ensure that federal dollars are put to use rather than sent back by the state.

Monique Jacobson, incoming secretary of the Children, Youth and Families Department, testified before the Senate Finance Committee, marking her first time in the legislative hot seat since she was appointed to the position in December. Jacobson previously served as head of the state Tourism Department.

Jacobson said she’s excited to tackle the challenges ahead and promised to account for every dollar.

With childhood initiatives being a priority for the Legislature and the governor’s office, Jacobson said: “We’ll be able to make a significant difference in the lives of children.”

Lawmakers expressed support and confidence in her and asked her to act with urgency.

Sen. Howie Morales, D-Silver City, was among the lawmakers who expressed concern that up to $21 million in federal funding did not get spent by the department during the last fiscal year. He urged Jacobson to figure out

what happened.

Sen. Nancy Rodriguez, D-Santa Fe, said with 900 children on a waiting list for services, the state cannot let federal dollars slip away.

“We’ll absolutely make sure we get the funding,” Jacobson said.

Jacobson also outlined her top priorities for the agency, including tightening internal financial controls, improving communication with law enforcement and expanding services aimed at preventing abuse and neglect.

The agency has been hampered in recent years by staffing shortages, an overwhelming caseload and a series of high-profile abuse cases that have drawn criticism. The agency is also under pressure to continue with a series of executive orders and policy reforms implemented by Gov. Susana Martinez last year.

As part of the changes, Jacobson said she would like to add 45 new workers and open a reintegration center for youth that would serve as a step between a secure facility and moving them back into the community.

Roswell’s Most Wanted

Jorge L. Ibarra, aka Joner Ibarra, is this week’s Roswell’s Most Wanted, according to the Roswell Police Department.

Ibarra, 25, is described as 5-feet, 10-inches tall and weighing 230 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He has a tattoo on his left shoulder and was driving a silver Nissan passenger car.

He has a Dexter address. Ibarra is wanted for aggravated fleeing of a law enforcement officer. An officer’s radar clocked a driver, believed to be Ibarra, traveling 63 mph in a 35-mph zone on South Sunset Avenue near West Poe Street the night of Jan. 21. With the officer behind the speeding car, it pulled into a

Staff Report An illegal immigrant from Mexico living outside the law in Hagerman has pleaded guilty in federal court to conspiring to distribute methamphetamine in Chaves and Eddy counties.

Israel Mireles-Rivera, 33, pleaded guilty Jan. 16 in federal court in Las Cruces to conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine and possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute.

He admitted possessing about 180 grams of meth.

Mireles-Rivera remains in federal custody pending a sentencing hearing that has yet to be scheduled. He faces a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in federal prison and a maximum possible sentence of 40 years in prison. Authorities said Mireles-Rivera would be deported to Mexico after completing his prison sentence.

Mireles-Rivera and co-defendant Ediberto Guzman, 61, of Carlsbad, were arrested in January 2014 on a three-count indictment alleging methamphetamine trafficking and firearms charges.

Board, Ryan participated in the repeal of the capand-trade and greenhouse gas emissions regulations; approved a settlement among the state, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and utility companies regarding several of their coal-fired plants in northern New Mexico concerning regional haze rules; and passed rules concerning air quality, petroleum storage tanks, hazardous waste, liquid waste and drinking water.

Ryan said her public meetings of the EIB were sometimes interrupted by the Occupy Movement and protest groups; however, she said she earned the respect of industry, environmental groups and the media.

Ryan is a partner at the Carson Ryan law firm in Roswell, where she focuses her practice on oil and natural gas matters. Her particular experience is oil and gas title examination, regulatory, complex transactions, corporate, litigation and operations. Ryan is a published author on issues ranging from appellate review of criminal cases to oil and gas topics and civil tort liability.

Ryan is an active member of Independent Petroleum Association of New Mexico. She also sits on the board of directors of the New Mexico Landmen’s Association and is a member of the Four Corners Association of Professional

Landmen and the American Association of Professional Landmen.

Ryan is a summa cum laude graduate of Lubbock Christian University with a bachelor’s degree in humanities. On Feb. 7, Ryan will receive the distinguished “Outstanding Young Alumni Award” from Lubbock Christian University. In 2006, Ryan received a Juris Doctorate from the Texas Tech University School of Law in Lubbock, Texas.

Ryan and her husband, Zack, are active members of Christ’s Church in Roswell. They have a 6-year-old daughter and an 18-month old daughter.

She said her roles as a wife and mother are her greatest and favorite accomplishments.

In her spare time, Beth Ryan is an accomplished vocalist, currently enjoying her service on her church’s worship team.

Other area residents appointed to boards and commissions by the governor include Kent Carruthers of Clovis, who was re-appointed to the Hospital Equipment Loan Council; Curry County Sheriff Wesley Waller of Clovis, who was appointed to the New Mexico Law Enforcement Academy Board; and Georgetta Kwasniewski of Alamogordo, who was appointed to the State Commission for Community Volunteerism.

convenience store parking lot. The driver got out of the vehicle, then got back in and sped away with the officer following. However, with the car’s speed approaching 100 mph, the officer ended his pursuit for safety reasons.

Another officer saw the car fail to stop for a red light while still traveling

at a high speed and turn south on Southeast Main Street. Police were unable to safely pursue the car and were unable to relocate it.

Anyone with information about Ibarra’s whereabouts or having any other information that could help locate the subject is asked to call the police department at 575-624-6770 or Chaves County Crime Stoppers at 1-888-594-TIPS(8477).

Callers may remain anonymous, and callers to Crime Stoppers may be eligible for a reward if their information leads to an arrest or conviction. The Roswell Police Department thanks citizens for their assistance.

Mexican national faces 40 years on meth conviction

Ryan ment to serve on the Game Commission stems from her personal love for hunting and the outdoors. She said she was raised from a young age to appreciate wildlife and its proper management in order to protect species and their habitat.

Ryan is also a member of Safari Club International, her local SCI chapter and of the National Rifle Association.

Ryan also serves on the board of directors of Lovelace Regional Hospital in Roswell. She said that board oversees organizational performance improvement of the facility and ensures that the facilities and the medical staff provide quality medical care that meets the needs of the community.

ment charged the two men with conspiracy to distribute methamphetamine from February 2013 through October 2013 in Eddy and Chaves counties.

Counts 2 and 3 respectively charged Mireles-Rivera with possession of methamphetamine with intent to distribute and being an alien illegally in possession of a firearm.

According to the federal indictment, Mireles-Rivera provided methamphetamine to Guzman on multiple occasions between February 2013 and October 2013.

Mireles-Rivera admitted supplying meth to others, including a person acting as a confidential source for law enforcement.

Authorities allege Mireles-Rivera on Oct. 17, 2013, had more than 180 grams of methamphetamine hidden in a vehicle outside his Hagerman residence and a smaller amount of meth inside his residence.

Guzman pleaded guilty to Count 1 of the indictment on April 25, 2014, and was sentenced to 48 months in federal prison, followed by three years of supervised release.

The case was investigated by the Las Cruces office of the federal Drug Enforcement Administration, the Carlsbad Police Department and the HITDA Region VI Pecos Valley Drug Task Force, which is comprised of officers from the Eddy County Sheriff’s Office, the Artesia and Carlsbad police departments, New Mexico Probation and Parole and the 5th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

achievements that I have learned through my experiences to our district. I will stand for our community as I have stood for our country.

I am surrounded by educators and hear issues and concerns everyday: My beautiful wife of 12-plus years, Mrs. Cynthia Sanchez, is a fourth-grade teacher at East Grand Plains Elementary. My mother, Mrs. Charlene Sanchez, is a retired associate teacher at East Grand Plains with 32-plus years of service. My grandmother, Mrs. Debbie Anaya, is a kindergarten teacher, also at EGP. My two sisters-inlaw, DeAnna Rivera and Stephanie Rivera are also associates with RISD. My grandfather, Mr. Raymond Anaya, is a retired teacher with RISD. Also retired from RISD are my mother-in-law, Elida Rivera and father-in-law, Alfredo Rivera. Education has been a way of life for my family. I would be proud to continue and add to my family’s role in our community as a school board member.

I am an involved parent: My son is a second-grade student at East Grand Plains, and my daughter will be starting Pre-K in the fall. I want the absolute best education for my children and when elected, I will put forth the same effort and make the best decisions for every student in our district.”

2. What do you believe are the most important issues in education nationally?

Ms. Ponce: “Student achievement, closing the achievement gap in all sub-groups, testing and all other assessment measures, balancing teacher morale and the pressures and expectations they face on a daily basis.

The identification of bullying and the more difficult part of stopping bullying are two pressing issues.

The challenges of acquiring sufficient funding for public schools and providing the necessary programs to meet the needs of the students.”

Mr. Sanchez: “Nationally, important issues in education seem to be National Standards, specifically, Common Core.

As a parent, I am amazed at the school work my son brings home! Thinking about what I learned in second grade hardly compares to what he is learning now. At the same time, an issue that concerns me about standards is the continuation of high expectations throughout my children’s education. National issues such as these are important to our district because our teachers are preparing our children for the future, becoming future leaders. Not only through high school achievement, but further education as well.”

Continued from Page A1

the most important issues facing educators in New Mexico?

Ms. Ponce: “Some of the issues faced by educators in New Mexico are the demands of student achievement, closing the achievement gap in all sub-groups, the testing and all other assessment measures that educators must comply with, compilation of data to drive instruction, balancing teacher morale and the pressures and expectations educators face on a daily basis, challenges presented by the new teacher evaluation system, for educators to identify the best possible curriculum and programs that will assist them in educating students in our schools to achieve outstanding scores on their individual testing, and the identification of bullying by educators and the more difficult part of bullying is for educators to completely and successfully stop the bullying that affects students are very pressing issues that, in my opinion, affect educators.”

Mr. Sanchez: “New Mexico educators seem to have faced concerns about the school grading system and teacher evaluations. I believe that accountability is necessary, as with any profession. The key phrase is profession.

Our educators are professionals. Their roles as educators require them to wear many different hats, under different circumstances.

The accountability systems, while important, should consider feedback from administrators and teachers to make the school grading system and teacher evaluation a reasonable evaluation.”

4. Is there any topic of education that you would like to see removed or added to the district’s curriculum?

Ms. Ponce: “The development of curriculum needs for the district should be left to the administrators and teachers that work in the district. That is what they are hired to do. The item I have stressed is the continued inclusion of higher level academic vocabulary in the curriculum. But, again, the actual development of curriculum to be adopted should be left to the administrators and teachers who are going to be responsible for implementing what they are going to teach. It is inappropriate

for school board members to micro-manage a school district.”

Mr. Sanchez: “Generally, I would like to see education prepare students for their future.

Without removing or adding to the school district’s curriculum, students need to make a connection with their schooling and how it’s a direct link to their successes and achievements in life.”

5. What do you believe is the single most important job of a school board member?

Ms. Ponce: “Aside from hiring the best possible superintendent, the most important job of a school board member is to have a common sense and open-minded approach to solving the issues that face the Roswell Schools and concentrate on the development of first-rate school district policies.”

Mr. Sanchez: “Number one will always be the safety and achievement of our children. We have to remember that our kids spend more time in the classroom on a daily basis than with their families during the school year.

This is a huge responsibility. Providing our educators with the tools and assets they need on a day-to-day basis will further aid in keeping our children safe while being able to achieve the goals we set forth for them in a great learning environment.

Another priority is a close involvement with the schools in the district. As a school board member, I feel it is your duty to know your schools’ needs and concerns. But how will this be accomplished if you do not visit your schools on a regular basis? This is the biggest complaint I hear from educators in my district.

When elected, I will regularly visit with my schools; I will address the concerns of our parents; I will address the concerns and needs of our teachers; and I will address the concerns and needs of our administrators.”

Velasquez said that she remembered as a youngster being told by her father not to buy grapes, in solidarity with the farmworkers he represented.

“Both men were also non-violent leaders and their stories need to be preserved for younger generations,” Velasquez said.

Oropesa said Tuesday’s meeting was just the first step in exploring the possibility of renaming streets after King and Chavez. “We would have to have several meetings and public hearings, but this is a first step in looking at what it would take to change the name of a

an opportunity to bring people together to discuss the future of mental health care for the community. “We want to look at the situation and look for solutions, I don’t want people to think this is a hopeless situation,” he said.

Dickson, an attorney, has dealt with mental health issues in his law practice and he said that people who work in the mental health field do so out of a sense of loyalty.

“No one goes into mental health care for the money, unless maybe you’re a CEO,” Dickson

said. “There is a great loyalty among these professionals and they are dedicated to what they do.”

If the loss of Turquoise results in the loss of mental health care professionals within the community, those professionals will be hard to replace.

“It is hard to recruit health care professionals to any community,” Dickson said, “and it will be hard to bring them back to Roswell.”

street,” he said.

“In the 1990s there was an attempt made to name a street after Martin Luther King Jr.,” Velasquez said. “I would like to see us give it another try.”

“In the ’90s we ended up with Garden Street as a proposed street to change to Martin Luther King,” committee member Steve Henderson said.

“We ended up with a park named after him down by Monterrey Elementary.”

Councilor Savino Sanchez, who was attending the meeting, said that the city park is in need of repair. “The name on the monument is missing, and that needs to be fixed.”

“We live in a segmented community,” said the Rev. Landjur Abukusumo of Roswell. “What we hope to achieve is a more unified community.”

Naming streets after King and Chavez can create a sense of inclusion between the various

communities of Roswell, Abukusumo said.

Abukusumo said that he is a board member of the New Mexico Martin Luther King Jr. State Commission, and that the commission provides programs around the state to promote King’s principles and philosophy and to reduce youth conflicts.

“The commission has mentorships and youth programs, and we have an ambassador program where we teach Dr. King’s principles of non-violence,” Abukusumo said.

Henderson said the next step will be to identify streets that could be renamed without causing much hardship. “I don’t see how anyone could object to changing the name of Bland Street,” he said, “or a street with a generic name like ‘Garden.’

Opinion I

Roswell Daily Record

GOP abortion bill: right ends, wrong means As thousands descended on Washington last week for the annual “March for Life,” the Republican House of Representatives was busy watering down an antiabortion bill that restricted abortions after 20 weeks, except in cases of rape or incest, with exemptions allowed only after a police report had been filed. This after a small group of moderate Republican female lawmakers challenged the bill and lobbied for a less restrictive measure.

Politics wins. Life loses.

It seems these moderate Republicans, fearing the bill could revive the Democrats’ phony “War on Women” mantra, erred on the side of expedience so as not to, as the Washington Post writes, “...expose Republicans in swing districts to a barrage of attack ads in 2016 from women’s rights groups and Democrats.”

The symbolism behind such a bill on the 42nd anniversary of the Supreme Court’s Roe vs.

Cal

Thomas Syndicated Columnist Wade decision is understandable, but if Republicans are serious about advancing protection for the unborn in the age of Obamacare, they will adopt a different strategy. They might start by looking back 50 years to the civil rights movement.

People who are old enough to remember, or have seen the film “Selma,” recall how pictures and personal stories helped move the hearts and change the minds of many Americans in support of civil rights legislation. Pictures of blacks being beaten by white police officers or being denied

service at lunch counters or forced to use separate restrooms — even murdered — shocked much of the nation.

As Black History Month begins next week, the Republican Congress should hold a series of hearings on the impact the elimination of 55 million unborn lives has had on our culture. They can begin with testimony from black women and men like J. Kenneth Blackwell, a former Ohio secretary of state and currently a policy board member of the American Civil Rights Union.

In a recent column for The Washington Times, Blackwell cited figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and wrote: “black women continue to have the highest abortion rate of any ethnic group, with a gruesome 483 abortions for every 1,000 births.” That’s nearly one black baby in every three, according to 2010 figures compiled by the CDC. If “black lives matter” — and

they do and should — they need to be protected in the womb, as well as in the streets.

Congressional hearings should also include people who survived abortions and are glad they did. Women who regret having had abortions can testify that if they had had more information they might have made a different choice. I have met such women and heard their stories. They are legion and can be easily contacted.

This is the key to advancing the pro-life argument. Republicans should be about “empowering women,” giving them more information so that they will be fully informed before choosing whether to sustain a life, or end one. Sonogram technology is the best tool for providing that information. Some studies found that abortion-minded women changed their minds about having an abortion after seeing their child growing in their wombs. Others found the opposite to be true.

Still, women should have the choice.

Choosing an empowerment strategy will put pro-choice advocates on the defensive. They then may be the ones seeking to keep women uninformed. Don’t we have federal laws requiring truthful information on food labels so that consumers can make informed decisions about what they put in their bodies? A sonogram requirement would give a woman the information she might need to make an alternative choice and spare the life of her child. Her access to this information should not be restricted.

This is the smart way to advance the pro-life vs. prochoice debate and change the dynamic and direction from its current stagnation. Republicans will try it if they are smart. But that, too, could be debatable.

Editorial

Don’t gaze too long through fed’s rose-colored glasses Superficially good news: The Fed is convinced that the worst is behind us.

Cheerfulness prevailed at the Federal Reserve’s December meeting to set policy.

Despite tumbling oil prices and economic chaos in Russia, some at the Fed predicted “more momentum than anticipated” and others claimed that the coming economic boost from cheap energy would be “quite large.”

For central bankers around the world, that means loosening up their own money in anticipation of investments flowing our way.

What’s not to like? Let’s just say, be wary of rose-colored glasses. The Fed can’t see the future, of course. On the other hand, we can hardly expect the Fed to give up on trying to get a feel for what’s around the economic bend. Our main peril isn’t that the Fed will overpredict, but that we’ll overbelieve.

It’s in our human nature to stake too much on predictions we like, however modest or circumspect. Everyone wants an edge — and everyone likes the great feeling that comes from seeking an edge in a good (rather than desperate) mood.

Our unique American circumstances worsen this psychological problem.

Thanks to our cosmopolitan, fractured society and the massive government that looms over all, we’re constantly nervous about lacking enough unity to ensure — as we imagine it could — prosperity.

In a recipe for mental instability, we simultaneously seek to maximize national togetherness and competitiveness.

Even the slightest sign of an economic upturn — especially after as rough a stretch as this — rekindles our hopes in this strange, attractive prospect to have it both ways.

Understandably — but problematically — neither the Federal Reserve nor Wall Street and its financial dependents have a good way of factoring these distortions into their economic models.

Some of the difficulty was on display when Alan Greenspan famously cautioned the markets in 1996 against “irrational exuberance.” (A lot of good that did.) More comes to light when we recognize how much of the financial industry is organized around turning quick, big profits off of our bursts of speculative exuberance.

If smart bankers really want the worst to be behind us, they should make at least a modest effort to curb their enthusiasm.

John Boehner’s dangerous gamble Bipartisanship, that widely admired virtue so sadly rare in our nation’s politics, has been — since 1948, when President Harry Truman, rejecting the counsel of his own Cabinet secretaries, recognized the newborn nation — the hallmark of Unites States support for the state of Israel.

But that era is now over. It ended officially when, without so much as consulting with either the White House or the State Department, the Republican speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, John Boehner, unilaterally invited the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, to address a joint session of Congress on March 3, just

Mark Shields Syndicated Columnist two weeks before the Israeli national elections, in which the embattled Netanyahu is fighting for his political life.

For Netanyahu, Boehner’s invitation, guaranteeing him global coverage and enhanced stature, is both the ideal campaign media event and a political gift. For the majority of Israeli voters who, according to polls, are not supporters

of Netanyahu’s, the invitation from the House speaker can be reasonably seen as unwelcome American meddling in their country’s election.

More importantly, Netanyahu has publicly and fiercely opposed President Barack Obama’s sustained efforts to negotiate with Iran while maintaining tough sanctions on that country, an agreement ensuring that Iran will not develop nuclear weapons.

For many years, Netanyahu’s pitch to American visitors remained consistent: “This is 1938. Iran is Germany, and it is about to go nuclear.” Possibly angered by the Obama administration’s public pressure on Israel to stop

the increasing surge of Jewish settlers in the occupied West Bank, Netanyahu made no effort to hide his support for Republican Mitt Romney over Obama in the 2012 presidential election. Earlier, he had been quoted in the Israeli papers indicting then-top Obama advisers Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod for being “self-hating Jews.”

Let us review the situation.

The speaker of the House, a Republican, has deliberately provided a head of state who is manifestly unfriendly to the president of the United States, a Democrat, a unique forum to oppose and to criticize the foreign policy of the Unit-

Is fossil fuel really the bad guy here?

“There are more than one billion automobiles and millions more buses, trucks, trains and aircraft that cannot operate without oil. Without oil, economies and civilization in general would come to a virtual standstill.

From the perspective of sustainability, where aspects of environment, economy and society work in balance with one another, decisions that bring civilization to a virtual standstill are obviously to be avoided.” — Patrick Moore (co-founder and former leader of Greenpeace).

Mr. Moore is talking about his fellow environmentalists who want to ban fossil fuels.

CO2, from the alleged bad guy fossil, actually has a fertilizing effect on all plant life (the more the merrier) and plants in turn provide oxy-

Martin Kral Guest Columnist gen to help balance the biosphere. With the increase in CO2 from the 350 ppm to the 400 ppm range over the last 15 years, there has not been a corresponding substantial increase in global temperature as the predictors have stated with their modeling data. I live in the Southwest and I prefer it over living in the Northeast because of its climate. Over the last several years, more people relocated to Texas than

most other states, many after a winter in the Northeast.

While I would like to say they move here for the weather, jobs are the real reason people move around and energy development is providing those jobs.

New Mexico’s recent political vote for the Keystone Pipeline was divided between the benefit of jobs verses the risk to the environment. What I found so interesting is that the actual value of the oil was not considered the top priority in the vote for or against building the KXL. Senator Udall, who represents an oil-producing state, voted for construction jobs.

Senator Heinrich, who also represents an oil-producing state, voted for environment protection. A better reason to build the KXL is to sustain the

level of energy we enjoy today and also provide the energy we will need to feed the massive population increases over the next 30 years. Hydrocarbons are not just something we burn to produce electricity or a fuel for our cars and trucks; they are the very foundation of our food producing industries.

I am definitely not party to the ‘fossil is the cause’ of climate change ideology agenda and I am not on the ‘nuclear is the solution’ for stopping climate change bandwagon either. Nuclear is an energy source that stands on its own as the clean energy source for the rest of time with or without climate change. By nuclear, I am referring to both fission and fusion with a variety of virtually unlimited fuel

Military retiree corner: Commissary, retired benefits info The Defense Commissary Agency (DeCA), which is headquartered at Fort Lee, Virginia, operates a worldwide chain of commissaries providing groceries to active duty military, retirees, National Guard and Reserves (and their family members) in a safe and secure shopping environment. Authorized patrons purchase items at cost plus a 5-percent surcharge. Shoppers save an average of more than 30 percent on their purchases compared to commercial prices. A family of four, when shopping regularly at a commissary, can save more than $4,500 on their total annual grocery bill.

A single service member can save more than $1,500 a year. Since developing a savings coupon system (both commissary coupons and manufacturers’ in-store or media coupons) and online computer shopping deals, additional savings are available. We have four commissary locations

John Taylor Veterans Advocate in New Mexico; – Cannon AF B, Holloman AFB, Kirtland AFB and White Sands. Fort Bliss Commissary in El Paso is also worth a trip for those of us having family or business in El Paso/Juarez.

A couple of interesting services are expanding through the commissary system to make shopping easier. The first is a unique in-store shopping tool (Wi-Fi) using your smart telephone or tablet device. Oceana Commissary, Virginia, stands first in line to test Wi-Fi access for patrons (Feb. 2).

Through the Commissary Patron Internet Mobile System, or CPIMS, DeCA wants to open customer Wi-Fi access within the

store to save money while you shop and to locate products while shopping.

Available are digital coupons for the Commissary Rewards Card, current sales flyers, what’s on the savings aisle for access to promotional prices and much more.

The second expanded service is “drive-up” groceries. CLICK2GO is the new online shopping and curbside pickup service, which provides you greater access to your commissary benefit anytime or anywhere you have Internet access. Simply stated, you place your order online, select a time you will be picking up your order and then pick up and pay.

You can even use your Rewards Card or regular coupons at curbside to receive the same savings as you do when you shop in the store. Currently, there are three stores testing this new concept, Fort Lee Commissary (Virginia), Offutt Air Force Base (Nebraska) and Travis Air

Force Base (California).

Please note: these services are not yet offered in New Mexico or West Texas as yet.

Since dairy products, meats, and other refrigerator items offer good savings at the commissary, I take a couple of large ice chests along (which pay for themselves after a couple of visits) for the two or three hour drive home. While at the military installation, visits to the PX/BX, Exchange speciality shops (hardware, eyeware, indigenous jewelry, electronics, etc.), gas stations, lawn and garden stores, family entertainment and much more pay for the travel expenses.

Another tip: Tuesdays and Wednesdays are usually not as crowded. Try to avoid shopping on the 1st and 15th of the month, which is payday.

Having a hard time keeping up with your retired benefits? “Army Echoes” newsletter is a tremendous help. The first Retired Army Per-

sonnel Bulletin was published in March 1956.

Previously, retired soldiers received information through inserts in their paychecks. After conducting a survey of retired soldiers, the Army changed the publication’s name to Army Echoes in January 1979, and shortened it to just Echoes in January 2009. Today, Echoes is a 16-page printed newsletter and a 20-page electronic newsletter published three times each year plus frequent email updates.

The Army now mails or emails Echoes to over one million retired soldiers and surviving spouses. As publication and mailing costs have increased, the Army is shifting to more electronic publications.

Soldiers who retired after January 1, 2012 may only receive Echoes by email.

Detailed info on “Echoes” can be found at soldierforlife.army.mil/retirement/ echoes. Back issues of the publication can be found at soldierforlife.army.mil/ retirement/echoesissues.

Other military branches’ retired information publications are: Navy: “Shift Colors” at public. navy.mil/bupers-npc/ reference/Publications/ ShiftColors/Pages/ default.aspx; Air Force: “Afterburner” at retirees.af.mil/afterburner; Marines: “Semper Fidelis” at manpower.usmc.mil/ portal/page/portal/M_ RA_HOME/MM/SR/ RET_ACT/Semper_Fidelis (or if problem accessing, try manpower.usmc.mil/ portal/page/portal/M_RA_ HOME , and then click the “Semper Fidelis Online” link under the “News and Features” heading (located near the center of the page); Coast Guard/NOAA “Retiree’s Newsletter” at uscg.mil/ppc/retnews/.

As funds for military operations are being drastically cut by Obama’s infamous “pen,” retirees need to constantly stay in touch so as to not miss vital benefits we have earned! God bless.

Boehner is not a naive man. Yet by this reckless political stunt, which embarrasses the Democratic president, he is undermining the very spirit and record of bipartisanship that, for nearly seven decades, has characterized United States friendship toward Israel. Boehner’s embrace and endorsement of Netanyahu risks turning U.S.-Israeli policy into just another partisan divide like same-sex marriage or global warming.

Nuclear power stirs up some powerful emotions in people, either because of fear or misunderstanding (or both). However, there’s no getting around the fact that nuclear commercial power is the absolute safest form of power generation in operation today, the most reliable low-carbon base load power generation source ever, and we haven’t even come close to reaching its maximum potential.

But if it’s ever going to approach its full potential we’ll have to address the most pressing issue with nuclear power technology; the storage of radioactive

For interfering in the national elections of a close ally, for undermining the admittedly vulnerable prospects of a peaceful resolution of tension with Iran, for possibly alienating the coalition opposing Netanyahu, which could organize the next Israeli government, and for irresponsibly practicing easy politics over difficult statesmanship, John Boehner may score a few cheap points.

But by what he alone has chosen to do, the speaker is, sadly, a diminished and less admirable public man.

LONDON (AP) — Branislav Ivanovic headed Chelsea into the League Cup final with a 1-0 victory over Liverpool on Tuesday, settling an enthralling semifinal in extra time.

After a 1-1 draw in the first leg, Ivanovic rose to meet Willian’s free kick in the 94th minute at Stamford Bridge to secure Chelsea’s progress.

The Premier League leaders were fortunate to complete the heated and compelling game with 11 men after Diego Costa avoided punishment for stamping on Liverpool duo Emre Can and Martin Skrtel.

Tottenham leads Sheffield United 1-0 heading to Bramall Lane.

If there was any doubting the significance of England’s second-tier knockout competition it came with the teamsheet. Unlike on Saturday when a weakened Chelsea was humiliated 4-2 here by third-tier Bradford, Mourinho was taking this trophy more seriously.

Chelsea was back at full strength, with top-scorer Costa restored to the

line-up. The Spain striker made his mark early on, by leaving a mark on Can’s right ankle. The stamp came in front of the benches and fourth official Phil Dowd, but Costa avoided even a yellow card.

Costa was the aggrieved player in the 22nd minute when he was tripped by Skrtel and referee Michael Oliver dismissed the penalty appeal. Mourinho was raging as the game became increasingly fiery.

It was Mourinho’s goal-

keeper, Thibaut Courtois, who preserved parity. The sprawling Belgian saved fro m Alberto Moreno and used his outstretched left leg to deny Philippe Coutinho.

Liverpool was exhibiting the attacking verve that was the hallmark of last season’s run to second in the Premier League, but had been lacking in the opening months of this season. The visitors, however, could find no way past Courtois.

Trans-Pacific balloon crew: It’s like camping in the sky

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — An international team is piloting the helium-filled Two Eagles balloon across the Pacific Ocean in an effort to break a pair of major ballooning records.

Five things to know about the challenge:

The Goal.

Accomplished balloon pilots Troy Bradley, of Albuquerque, and Leonid Tiukhtyaev of Russia, launched from Saga, Japan, early Sunday Japan time. They’re aiming for the shores of North America, an attempt that will put them on course to break a distance record of 5,208 miles that has stood for more than three decades.

They’re also looking to break the flight-duration record set in 1978, when Ben Abruzzo, Maxie Anderson and Larry Newman made the first trans-Atlantic balloon flight. That record of 137 hours in the air in a traditional gas balloon is considered the “holy grail” of ballooning achievements.

Life in the Capsule.

Bradley has likened the journey to a camping trip in the sky. The balloon’s capsule is about the size of a large tent — 7 feet long, 5 feet wide and 5 feet tall, which leaves the pilots little room to move around.

Since they’re flying at an altitude of at least 15,000 feet, they have oxygen masks and are bundled up to cope with the 50-degree temperature inside the capsule. They have sleeping bags and a small onboard heater. The balloon is also equipped with a simple toilet.

Food and drink.

Packing required the pilots to be thorough since they would be on their own after lifting off. They have freeze-dried meals, fresh fruit, beef jerky and ener-

Lord and Savior on Sunday, January 25, 2015, surrounded by her family.

Tonya was born September, 24, 1945, to Frances and Dorothy Schobey in Jamestown, NY. She met her husband on a blind date in Albuquerque, NM, where he was stationed in the Navy. They got married on April 19, 1963. Eventually, they moved back to Roswell in 1966, and moved to the family home in Midway in 1967.

Tonya loved her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. She also loved flowers, reading, painting, watching the birds, and most of all, her grandchildren. Tonya worked as a cosmetologist and drove a school bus for 20+ years. She was loyal to her church and no greater prayer warrior could be found. She also assisted with the Midway Fire Department for 30 years and served meals to hundreds of kids in the Midway area.

In lieu of flowers, the family would like donations to be made to His House Church of Dexter and One Tree Cowboy Fellowship of Roswell. Donations can be mailed to PO Box 208, Roswell, NM 88202.

Mom, you are always with me.

You are the whisper of the leaves as I walk down the street.

You are the smell of certain foods I remember.

The fragrance of flowers that I pick, the fragrance of life itself.

You are the cool hand on my brow when I do not feel well.

You are my breath in the air on a cold winter’s day.

You are the sound of the rain that lulls me to sleep.

You are the colors of a rainbow.

Mom, you live inside my laughter.

You are the place that I come from, my first home.

You’re the map that I follow with every foot step.

You are my first love, my first friend, even my first enemy But nothing on earth can separate you from me.

Not time, Not space, Not even death.

I love you mom Please take a moment to share your thoughts and memories with the family in the online registry book at andersonbethany.com.

Roaming North America

Land of Dinosaurs Gigantic dinosaurs such as Tyrannosaurus rex (ty-RANoh-SORE-rus RECKS) and Triceratops (tri-SER-uh-tops) ruled western North America 66 million years ago.

Dinosaurs had been roaming the Earth for about 165 million years. And then, in just a few years, all dinosaurs but birds were wiped from the planet.

Much of what we know about these awesome animals and the land they ruled comes from fossil discoveries in one set of rocks, the Hell Creek Formation. This layer of rocks covers parts of Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wyoming. (It is called the Lance Formation in Wyoming.)

In November 2014, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C., opened a new exhibit, “The Last American Dinosaurs: Discovering a Lost World.� To learn more about this amazing world of dinosaurs, The Mini Page talked with the lead curator* of the exhibit.

In the background, an Edmontosaurus (ed-MONtoh-SAW-rus) travels through a swamp in the Hell Creek Formation area 66 million years ago.

The Edmontosaurus was probably a herd animal.

It bit off plants with its bill and used its hundreds of teeth to grind the vegetable matter.

In the foreground, an Acheroraptor (AK-er-ohRAP-tur) hunts for prey. The Acheroraptor was closely related to the Velociraptor in Asia. It grew up to 10 feet long.

A Pterosaur (TER-uh-sore), a reptile cousin of the dinosaurs, flies above.

*A curator builds, cares for and studies collections.

At the top of the art, Anzu (the pink dinosaurs) roam through the wetlands, while an Avisaurus glides above the water (center right).

from The Mini Page Š 2015 Universal Uclick

Right now, in the middle of the winter, if you look at the states where the Hell Creek Formation is, it is hard to imagine that in the time of the dinosaurs it was a rainy, subtropical forest. There were no cold winters. It would have been much like southern Florida today.

The Earth was much warmer 66 million to 68 million years ago, at the end of the Cretaceous (kruh-TAY-shus) Period. There were no polar ice caps.

The planet’s sea levels were much higher than today. The oceans had flooded parts of North America, creating a huge inland sea. Dinosaurs lived to the east and west of the sea. credit: art by Mary Parrish, courtesy Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History

Billy Jonas’ newest album, “Build It Back Again,� focuses on staying hopeful. Billy is a songwriter, guitarist, singer and percussionist. He founded the Billy Jonas Band.

He is famous for making instruments out of everyday objects such as paint cans, sewer pipes, garden rakes or egg slicers. He began playing on these “found objects� when he was in summer camp. In high school and college, many of his friends could not play instruments, so they played on pots and pans with chopsticks.

Billy grew up in Chicago and now lives in North Carolina. He took piano, guitar and trombone lessons when he was a kid. He travels throughout the world to study different forms of music and instruments.

Billy has performed at concerts to benefit those working to end conflicts in Palestine and Israel. He also works to help environmental causes. He loves to run with Beeka, his rescue dog. from The Mini Page Š 2015 Universal Uclick

Jason Sangha

Few collegiate athletes have experienced success like Gus Goodsport’s Lynn University’s Jason Sangha. Lynn, located in Boca Supersport Raton, Florida, has become a soccer powerhouse at the Division II level, winning the national championship in 2012 and 2014, and finishing second in 2011.

Jason, a defender, earned All-America honors in each of his four seasons with the Fighting Knights. A threeyear captain, Jason led a smothering Lynn defense that surrendered fewer than one goal per match, while allowing an average of just three shots on goal. A native of England, Jason was one of 21 international students on the 26-man Lynn roster last season.

In the 2014 national semifinals held in Louisville, Height: 6-1 Kentucky, the Fighting Knights defeated Quincy (Illinois) Age: 24 University 4-1 before holding off the University of Hometown: Southampton, Charleston (West Virginia) 3-2 in the finals. The victory gave England Lynn’s men’s soccer team its fifth national title overall and the school’s 23rd championship in all sports.

Famous Hell Creek Dinosaurs Triceratops Triceratops were huge planteating dinosaurs. They grew to 30 feet long and weighed between 13,000 and 20,000 pounds. By comparison, the biggest land animal living today, the African elephant, can weigh up to 15,000 pounds.

Compared to a mammal, Triceratops had a small brain in its big head. It was probably as smart as a crocodile.

Meet Billy Jonas

Decorative, deadly dinos Triceratops were members of a family of plant-eating dinosaurs with horns, frills or knobs. Some had spikes or horns along the edges of their frills, which may have been brightly colored.

Some had horns above their eyes, and others had a nose horn. The horns and frills probably helped attract mates and scare off enemies.

They also used horns in fighting.

Tyrannosaurus rex

You vs. a T. rex

The T. rex grew to 40 feet long, stood about 13 feet tall at its hip and weighed 15,500 pounds. It was one of the largest predators, or animals that hunted other animals, ever to live on land.

The T. rex had little arms with big claws. Its arms were so short that they couldn’t even reach its mouth.

Have you ever wondered if you could outrun a T. rex? Experts believe it would have been able to run up to 25 miles per hour, but an average human sprinter can run only about 12 miles per hour. Uh-oh!

The T. rex had powerful hind legs.

It may have used its little arms for holding down prey. from The Mini Page Š 2015 Universal Uclick

Last Remaining Dinosaurs A new discovery

Living dinosaurs Birds are avian (AY-vee-uhn) dinosaurs. Non-avian dinosaurs were all other dinosaurs. “Avian� means birds or something to do with birds.

Birds are the descendants of small, non-flying dinosaurs called theropods. One of the best-known theropods was Velociraptor.

When the asteroid impact led to the extinction of all non-avian dinosaurs, it opened the way for our mammal ancestors to thrive. art courtesy NASA

In 2014, fossil hunters discovered a new type of dinosaur, Anzu wyliei (AN-zu WI-lee-eye). Scientists built a skeleton of it from three partial skeletons.

They named it Anzu after a mythological feathered monster.

Because it was discovered in the Hell Creek Formation, they nicknamed it the “chicken from hell.�

Anzu wyliei was a member of the Oviraptor (oh-vih-RAP-tor) family, a group of bird-like dinosaurs. It lived at the time of T. rex and Triceratops.

Anzu had a long tail and a large crest on top of its head. Its front limbs had long, sharp claws. It did not have teeth, but cut its food with its powerful jaws. It probably ate plants, animals and eggs.

It weighed about 500 pounds and was about 11 feet long from beak to tail and about 5 feet tall at the hip.

Our planet has already faced five mass extinctions. The last one killed off the dinosaurs. Experts believe we are now in a sixth mass extinction.

While earlier extinctions have been caused by nature, experts say this one is being caused by humans.

Human actions are harming the environment, destroying habitats and killing huge numbers of animals and plants. Experts say more than 40 percent of all amphibians, one-quarter of all mammals and more than onetenth of all birds are threatened.

Species are becoming extinct at much faster rates than normal.

Funny’s

Sixty-six million years ago, a giant asteroid slammed into Earth near what is now Mexico. Within a few years, all dinosaurs except birds had died.

Within seconds after the impact, showers of melted rock shot into the air. Tsunamis sped across the oceans and firestorms swept through the land. Dust and bits of matter hung in the atmosphere for months, blocking out the sunlight and cooling the planet. Acid rain fell over the Earth.

Ecosystems all over the world were destroyed. Besides the dinosaurs, the asteroid helped wipe out about three-fourths of all plant and animal species on Earth. Other hazards, such as giant volcanoes, added to the destruction.

Plant-eating dinosaurs starved, and their deaths were the last blow to the giant meat-eating dinosaurs.

Lake Arthur learns from experience Wednesday, January 28, 2015 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

BY PAUL LESSARD RECORD CORRESPONDENT

LAKE AR THUR — The young, inexperienced varsity teams from Lake Arthur fell pretty hard to the visiting, more experienced squads from Carrizozo Tuesday night in the Panthers’ district openers.

The girls – starting four freshman and an eighth grader – lost 59-11 while the boys – starting four sophomores and a freshman – lost 68-30. A lot of credit goes to the visiting head coaches from Carrizozo – T rampus Pierson (boys) and George Vega (girls) – for calling off the press and going deep into the bench to keep the scores from getting too great.

Boys: Carrizozo 68, Lake Arthur 30

The Panthers ran into a hot-shooting Grizzlies squad and lost their district opener. The Panthers struggled early in the opening quarter with the press giving up numerous easy transition hoops.

“We got a lot of young kids on our team and we’re just working hard every day to adjust to a new coach and lear n new things,” stated Coach Scott Wagner.

“These young kids are developing well I think.

We’re struggling in terms of winning games as a lot of these teams have experienced squads and (we don’t). We just keep at it day by day and we’re getting better.”

Garrison Ventura scored the Grizzlies’ first three buckets as they were off and running. The Panthers managed to answer with a couple of baskets, but then the Grizzlies went on a decisive 19-0 run to put the game away early with a 254 lead.

sophomore Jordan Lilly provided a little spark going into the second quarter, but the Grizzlies were firmly in control with a 29-12 lead.

Coach Wagner was pleased with the play of Lilly. “He’s taking care of the ball better and he’s taking some real good shots.

He’s getting open and that’s working for him.”

The second quarter was more of the same as the Grizzlies went on a 21-0 blitz to go up 50-12 until a Brandon Dalton bucket stopped the bleeding with 1:31 to go. Lilly got two more to go late as the half ended with Zozo up 56-18.

The Grizzlies had four players in double players by the half.

A very quick third quarter saw the Panthers outscore the Grizzlies 10-4 as Lilly and Dalton scored all of the LA points. The fourth was equally as quick with a running clock as the Panthers could only manage one Lilly bucket as the Grizzlies moved to 13-6 on the year.

Lilly scored 16 points to lead the Panther attack while Dalton pitched in 10 points and 6 blocks.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHOENIX — Marshawn L ynch smiled politely, waved at the crowd and answered every question the same.

“I’m here so I don’t get fined,” the Seattle Seahawks’ star running back constantly repeated for five minutes before leaving the podium at Media Day on Tuesday. It’s not clear if his plan will work.

About 200 reporters crowded around L ynch’s podium for at least 15 minutes before he arrived. But the media-shy Lynch made it clear right from the start he wasn’t saying anything except variations of his scripted answer.

Lynch set a timer on his phone and told everyone he showed up just to avoid a fine. Lynch caught a bag of Skittles tossed from Olympic gold medal gymnast Shawn Johnson and stopped to pick up a reporter’s recorder off the floor before he walked away.

L ynch later spoke to “Entertainment Tonight” about his foundation, the “Fam 1st Family Foundation.”

The Professional Football Writers of America was talking to the league about the session and Lynch had

been apprised of a potential fine. He is also required to be at media sessions Wednesday and Thursday.

In November, the NFL fined L ynch $50,000 for violations of the league’s media policy in addition to collecting the $50,000 fine that was imposed against L ynch for violations last season. The fine from 2013 was held in anticipation of future cooperation from Lynch.

“I’m fine sitting up here, but not everybody is comfortable with it so I don’t think he should be forced to do it,” All-Pro cornerback Richard Sherman said.

Lynch has much more to say when the price is right.

Insurance company Progressive and candy maker Skittles released commercials featuring Lynch saying a bit more than his usual: “Yeah” and “Nope” and “Thanks for asking.”

At Media Day last year, L ynch’s reclusiveness became a major story.

Lynch appeared for 6 1/2 minutes, left the arena, and then returned to a “mixed zone” the NFL created for players not on podiums or in microphone-equipped speaking areas at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey.

Up to the final buzzer, NMMI (6-10) and Hagerman (10-8) went tooth and nail on the basketball court Tuesday, with ties after two quarters and a one-point edge after another. But a letdown at the end by the Colts gave the no-longer district-foes Bobcats a 5652 victory, splitting the season games.

Both teams had long run strings that put one side up and the other down.The ’Cats jumped out to a 6-0 lead to open the match, with the first Institute points not coming until 31⁄2 minutes into the game. But after Hagerman stretched the early lead to 9-2, NMMI closed out the first with a 7-point unanswered string, tying it at 9-9.

The Colts took the lead on a trey by Mac Brown — no surprise there, he again led all scorers with 22 points — but a 10-point run by Hagerman put them back on top before field goals by Carlos Xibille and Trent Foster knotted it at 21-all heading into the locker room.

The third quarter started out more back-and-forth, but four treys by Brown helped them stretch the lead to eight before ’Cat Alejandro Ramos began hitting his stride from the outside.

Leading 37-29 with 3 1⁄2 minutes remaining in the third quarter, the Colts only managed four points in that span, while Hager-

Ramos put the Bobcats back on top to open the fourth but the Institute came back to hold a slim edge until Colts fouls put

Hagerman on the line, and they began hitting their shots. NMMI’s final field goal came with 4:38 remaining in the game; after that, one free throw was all they could manage.

In that time, the ’Cats hit

three field goals and were 6-for-10 from the line, giving them the victory.

What made the dif ference? “Effort. Effort, effort,” said Bobcat coach Andrew Rodriguez. “We finally got a game where we put four quarters of effort together.

It’s nice to see.”

Hagerman has had a season filled with what Rodriguez called “adversity,” and sounds happy his team is getting over that.

“We took that step last week, and we started to put it together today, so that was nice to see,” he said.

NMMI coach James Kelt sounded more than frustrated with the loss.

“We made some bad decisions and missed some shots. We don’t rebound, then we foul,” he said of late in the game. “It was like, a constant bad to worse, you know what I’m saying? And No. 3 (Ramos) stepped up for them, hit some big shots, and we just didn’t have the answers.

When it got in the tightness of the game, we didn’t execute.”

Ramos led the Bobcats with 19 points, all but five in the second half, and big Gavin Quiroz added 12.

Rodriguez credited Ramos with leading his team to the victory.

“He did, leadership-wise and led his team. Refuse to lose and all the cliches you can think of.”

Serena advances, Venus leaves ASSOCIATED PRESS

MELBOURNE, Australia — Madison Keys defeated one Williams sister Wednesday at the Australian Open. On Thursday, the 19-year-old American will try to make it two, and this sibling might be a little tougher, even with a cold.

Keys overcame a left thigh injury to beat No. 18ranked Venus Williams 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 and advance to the last four against topranked and 18-time major winner Serena Williams, who had little trouble beating last year’s finalist, Dominika Cibulkova, 6-2, 6-2.

In men’s play, defending champion Stan Wawrinka beat Kei Nishikori 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (6) to avenge a five-set loss to the Japanese star in the quarter finals of the U.S. Open last year.

Wawrinka, who let slip a 61 lead in the third-set tiebreaker and eventually needed six match points to close it out, will play the winner of the Novak Djokovic-Milos Raonic night match on Rod Laver Arena.

Serena Williams made her win look easy despite suffering from a bad cold the past few days. She spoke with a hoarse voice in her post-match interview on court.

“I have to keep my answers short because I keep coughing,” Williams said.

“I’ve been sick the past few days, and it’s just getting worse and worse, but hopefully it will get better,” Williams added later. “I heard there’s a virus going around with a lot of the players, and I think I caught it.”

There had been some hope that the semis might feature an all-Williams matchup at a major for the

Madison Keys of the U.S. makes a forehand return to compatriot Venus Williams during their quarterfinal match at the Australian Open. first time in more than five years. The Williams sisters last met in a Grand Slam match at Wimbledon in 2009, when Serena won the final.

The semifinalists from the other half of the women’s draw have already been determined — No. 2 Maria Sharapova will play No. 10-seeded Ekaterina Makarova, also on Thursday.

Serena’s win doesn’t bode well for the other three women left — all five past times Williams has advanced to the semifinals at Melbourne Park, she’s won the tournament.

Keys received treatment on her leg after dropping serve in the second set to give Venus Williams a 4-1 lead.

After the medical timeout, she broke Williams’ serve twice to level the set at 4-all, but Williams then captured the next two

games to send it to a decider.

Keys was also behind 3-1 in the final set before breaking Williams’ serve three times in a row to close out the match.

The loss ended an encouraging 10 days for Venus Williams at Melbourne Park.

She hadn’t advanced to the quarter finals of a Grand Slam since the U.S. Open in 2010 and had struggled to recapture her earlier for m after being diagnosed in 2011 with Sjogren’s syndrome, an auto-immune disease that causes fatigue and joint pain.

But Williams is 9-1 to start the new year after capturing her season-opening tournament in Auckland, New Zealand, before the Australian Open.

“It already feels like a long season already, so many matches in a row,”

she said. “But it’s a great start. Hopefully I’ll be able to keep this level up.”

Regardless of the quality of the match, in which the two players combined for 83 unforced errors, Keys was pleased to be through to the semis.

“It’s amazing, you just have to embrace the moment,” said Keys, who is now coached by three-time major winner Lindsay Davenport. “And I get to enjoy another moment next round.”

She later identified the injury as a left adductor, and was optimistic it wouldn’t affect her in her match against Serena.

“I think it’s one of those things where all of us have dealt with injuries before,” she said.

“I’m probably going to have tape on it, but I’m just going to do my absolute best and enjoy the moment.”

no subs, simply wore out as the game progressed and fell to 0-12 on the year.

It was all Carrizozo from the opening tip as they scored the first 18 points of the game. Marisol Gonzalez banked in a three pointer with :50 seconds to go and followed with a freebie for the only Panther points. The quarter saw some good rebounding by freshman Champayne Diaz, but trailed 20-4 at the quarter break.

The second quarter saw Jaque Velo make two threepointers and a free throw for the only points as the Grizzly lead grew to 34-11 at the half time break.

The young, tired Panther squad could not buy a hoop in the second half as the Grizzlies got everyone involved. The Zozo team outscored the Panthers 12-0 in the third and 13-0 in the final frame for the final tally of 59-11.

Coach Stephanie Shea was pleased with the play of her squad despite the score. “Today was just another one of those days when we basically played our best. This time, we were not dying every time up and down the court. We actually watched our fouls tonight – no one in foul trouble. They ran their plays and defensive-wise, they crashed the boards. I’m very proud of the girls.”

Both Lake Arthur squads travel to Corona on Thursday for their next district games. The boys team plays the winless Cardinals while the girls play the defending district champs.

Lynch

Continued from Page B1

With the exception of briefly speaking with the NFL Network’s Deion Sanders, to the Seahawks’ website, and to Ar med Forces Network, he did not deal with reporters that day.

Sanders, the Hall of Fame cor nerback, tried again to interview L ynch, but got nowhere this time and left laughing.

Teammates defended Lynch’s behavior.

“This is who he is. I don’t nitpick or judge, so I just accept a person for who they are,” All-Pro safety Earl Thomas said. “I just love who he is. He is so random.”

Sherman even continued answering questions after the 60-minute session ended.

“I don’t think (players) should be obligated any more than the commissioner is obligated to speak to the media,” Sherman said.

“I think that if players are going to be obligated to speak to the media then every one of the NFL personnel should be obligated to speak to the media weekly, and that’s not the case.

“It’s unfortunate, but I think that every team should be forced to present certain players, obviously a few of them. Obviously, if someone is uncomfortable in front of the media and

uncomfortable answering questions, then you have to find a way to accommodate the NFL. This is a game; you find a way to accommodate everyone else who’s uncomfortable.”

Lynch was fined $20,000 for making an obscene gesture during Seattle’s overtime win over Green Bay in the NFC championship game. The league did not specify what the gesture was, but Lynch grabbed his crotch after scoring a goahead touchdown in the fourth quarter. Lynch was fined $11,000 for a similar gesture in Seattle’s win over Arizona on Dec. 21.

L ynch also was told before the last game he could not wear gold shoes because they were a violation of the NFL’s on-field dress code, and that he could be ejected from the game if he wore them.

“He’s a guy that cares about everyone in that locker room,” assistant head coach and offensive line coach Tom Cable said.

“Anytime you hand it to him, he’s carrying them.

He’s not carrying the football, he’s carrying his team.

That’s who he is. That’s what he does.”

The very young Hagerman girls basketball team only has five victories this year, and three of those are over NMMI. After a close victory the first time against the Lady Colts and a mid-range win in the second, the Bobcats used an impressive second half to crush the Institute at Godfrey Gym Tuesday, winning 60-24.

“We started playing the game that we know how to play,” said HHS coach Chris Foust. “We started dictating what we wanted to do instead of letting them.”

Colt Samantha Rodriguez opened the scoring with a 3-pointer one minute into the game, then Sierra Walker nailed a second with 2:04 remaining in the first half. But the ’Cats went on an 8-0 run in between those two long balls, and after Hagerman’s Stephany Razo hit a trey of

her own, the visitors were back up 11-6.

A second 3 by Walker made it 11-9 after one quarter, and the second quarter was equally close.

Paige Hoppes made it a four -point game 30 seconds into the quarter, then NMMI went 0-4 from the charity stripe — missing two chances at one-andones. Walker gave the home team its first pair of field goals, tying the game at 1313 on a ball that rolled around and around and around the rim before finally going in, but a trey by Hannah Hamill gave the Bobcats a lead they would never relinquish.

Still, two Walker free throws with :37 remaining in the half made it only 1815 ’Cats, and the teams went into the locker room with the outcome certainly in doubt.

“We were letting them push us into stuff we didn’t want to do,” Foust said.

“We weren’t controlling the ball and foul trouble in the first half hurt us a lot, too.”

But that all changed in the second half, as Hamill scored 19 points on her own in the third and the remaining Bobcats put in 13, all the while holding NMMI to five. With Foust making 5-on-5 line changes in the fourth, the margin wasn’t as wide, but Hagerman still won the quarter 12-4, with the only Colt points coming on a field goal and two free throws by Walker.

Hamill ran away with the scoring, putting in 26 points. Razo had 14 for

Hagerman, and Walker had all but six of the Colt points, tallying 18.

With six freshmen, three eighth graders and only two seniors on the floor, the Bobcats are using the season as a rebuilding year, without counting out the upcoming district season.

And with family names that are familiar to fans from years past, Foust is hoping the team’s 5-12 record will get better before the season

ends.

“Hannah Hamill, we’re expecting a lot from her,” the coach said. “Jamie War f, Stephanie Razo.

We’re expecting a lot from these young girls.”

NMMI coach Marisha Olesinski had no comment after the game, other than acknowledging the good first half, while noting it takes two halves to win.

Wilson recalls watching as a kid while Brady won Super Bowls ASSOCIATED PRESS

PHOENIX — Tom Brady began winning Super Bowls when Russell Wilson was still a teenager, tuning in to see the big game on TV. “Of course I remember watching Brady,” Wilson said Tuesday. “He won some incredible games.

Incredible comebacks.

Incredible throws. Incredible plays. Hopefully he doesn’t make too many incredible ones this year.”

When Wilson leads the Seattle Seahawks into the Super Bowl against Brady and the New England Patriots on Sunday, both quarterbacks know the outcome will affect the way each is viewed for quite a while.

Wilson can become the eighth starting QB to win consecutive Super Bowl championships, and the first since Brady did it 10 years ago.

According to STATS, Wilson also would be the first to claim two in his first three years in the league (as it is, he’s the first starting quarterback to make it to two Super Bowls that quickly).

Brady, meanwhile, won titles in 2002, 2004, and 2005. But since then, he is 0-2 in Super Bowls, with a pair of losses to the New York Giants in 2008 and 2012.

“Look, any time you lose the last game of the year, it’s tough,” said Brady, who sounded stuf fed up and coughed a couple of times.

“The last two times we’ve been in this game, we haven’t been able to close it out. We’re hoping this is our day.”

A victory over the Seahawks would allow the 37year -old Brady to match his idol as a kid, Joe Montana, and Terry Bradshaw with four rings.

But a defeat would drop Brady’s career mark on Super Sunday to .500 at 33.

“You never get over any of those,” Brady said about

the defeats. “As time goes on, you gain perspective and you still had some great years. ... It would be great for this team to try to leave a great legacy.”

When he won his first NFL championship in 2002, with a 20-17 victory over the St. Louis Rams, Brady was in his first year as a starter and second year in the league.

Initially a backup after being drafted in the sixth round, he took over from injured quarterback Drew Bledsoe — and the rest is history.

“Tom Brady’s done a lot of great things over the last 15 years,” Patriots tight end Tim Wright said.

Who would argue?

After the usual Media Day fare concer ning his favorite music (Jay-Z got a shout-out) and his hair

(but no marriage proposals, as happened in the past), Brady got around to taking questions Tuesday about his place in the game.

He knows full well that Super Bowl success is a major part of how quarterbacks’ careers are defined.

And Brady said he recalls the feeling of hoisting the Lombardi T rophy three times in a four-year span a decade ago.

“Those things happened so fast back then. I didn’t even understand what was happening,” Brady said.

“It’s not like I didn’t appreciate those experiences. I certainly did. But ... we’ve had two tough ones.”

Wilson, 26, has yet to play an NFL season that didn’t include at least one playoff victory for his team.

He goes about things a different way than Brady on the field, far more skilled as a ball carrier and on-the-move improviser.

Wilson can sling the football, too, though, and put it right where he wants it, as evidenced by his 35-yard touchdown throw in overtime to win the NFC championship game against the Green Bay Packers.

Before a late comeback, Seattle trailed by 16 points.

Wilson had a passer rating of zero at halftime and he finished the game with four interceptions.

But that did not concern him Tuesday. The only thing that did was the final score.

“I want to be considered a winner,” said Wilson, sporting a thick beard.

“That’s ultimately the goal in terms of playing quarterback: Win, win, win.”

Asked which quarterbacks were his favorites while growing up, Wilson mentioned Brady and Peyton Manning, calling them “two guys that I’ve looked up to since I was a little kid.”

In last year’s Super Bowl, Seattle overwhelmed Manning’s Denver Broncos 438, part of Wilson’s 10-0 record in games against quarterbacks who have won a title.

That could become 11-0 on Sunday.

“To get back to the Super Bowl is a huge thing,” Wilson said. “It’s a one-of-akind thing.”

Not for this game’s two QBs.

Doubts arise over Allenby’s report Tiger bares truth

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — A defiant and at times angry Robert Allenby stood by his story Tuesday that he was robbed and beaten in Honolulu, basing the account on what he remembered and what he was told by a homeless woman who came to his aid.

“There has definitely been a lot of confusion,” Allenby said. “But I think the No. 1 thing that you should all remember is that my story stays exactly the same as the way I told it. I told you what I knew, and I told you what someone told me. That’s the bottom line.

I never lied to anyone.”

Honolulu police are investigating the Jan. 16 incident as second-degree robbery. No arrests have been made.

Allenby says he was at Amuse Wine Bar with his caddie and a friend from Australia on the night he missed the cut at the Sony Open. He said surveillance tape shows him leaving the bar with three people he

doesn’t recognize, and that his next memory is being in a park. He said a homeless woman told him he had been thrown out of a trunk, which he said caused his injuries.

Allenby posted a photo of his bloodied forehead and a swollen eye to his private Facebook account. He said he was robbed of his wallet and phone, though the credit card he used to pay for dinner and wine was still in his front pocket.

In the last week, however, the Honolulu Star-Advertiser quoted the homeless woman, Charade Keane, as saying she never told Allenby she saw him in a trunk and did not how he was injured. The newspaper quoted another homeless man in the park, Chris Khamis, as saying Allenby told him he was depressed and drugged at a strip club and that he passed out and hit his head on a lava rock.

Exactly what happened remains a mystery, even for Allenby. He said Tuesday he has “no memory in my brain” from about 11:06

p.m. to 1:27 a.m. on that date.

“I have been trying and overlooking and going backward and forward, and there is just nothing,” he said. “I can’t tell you how frustrating that is because we all want to know the truth.”

The 43-year-old Australian said headaches subsided a few days ago and he chose to play in the Phoenix Open to try to get his life back on track.

His face looked relatively clean as he spoke to reporters — his injuries drew more attention than any of his 22 wins around the world — and the crowd was even larger because the podium was in front of the caddie hospitality tent.

Allenby saved his anger for the media, whom he sarcastically claimed to be “amazing experts at investigations.”

“I was a victim, and all of a sudden you’re putting all the blame on me,” Allenby said. “I take full responsibility if I did do something wrong. ... At the end of the

day, I was in a place having a nice dinner and having a nice night, and then I became a victim. And now, it’s all been turned around.

“The police will come out with the right story.”

Pressed for details, Allenby kept referring to the 2½-hour stretch where he blanked out. He previously told The Associated Press he had two receipts in his front pocket — along with his credit card used to pay for dinner and wine — that were time stamped at 10:06 p.m. and 10:48 p.m.

Allenby said he was not drunk. “There’s no way in the world what I drank could do what was done to me — not a chance in the world,” he said. He also said he had blood tests to see if anything was detected in his system. He told the AP last week that doctors chose not to do a drug test the day after the incident because whatever was in his system likely would not be there for more than a few hours.the Sony Open, is what generated so much attention.

House’s 3-pointers pace Aggies Associated Press AUBURN, Ala. — Danuel House scored 23 points and hit six 3-pointers to lead streaking Texas A&M to a 71-61 victory over Auburn on Tuesday night.

The Aggies (14-5, 5-2 Southeastern Conference) never trailed on their way to a fifth straight win.

House got off to a hot start and missed only one 3-point attempt after coming in averaging 18.6 points over the last five games.

The rest of the damage was mostly done in the paint, where Texas A&M out-

Brodeur will retire, join Blues’ office ST. LOUIS (AP) — Martin Brodeur, one of the greatest goaltenders in NHL history, is retiring.

The 10-time All-Star and four-time Vezina Cup Trophy winner finished his career with St. Louis after a standout career with New Jersey, and will join the Blues in a management role in hockey operations. A news conference was set for Thursday morning before the Blues return from the All-Star break to play Nashville.

“It’s kind of sad to see a guy like him hang ‘em up,” said Brian Elliott, the Blues’ All-Star goalie. “I’m sure it’s a tough decision, but I was grateful to be on the same team with him if only for a little bit.”

The 42-year-old Brodeur wrapped up his 22-year career with St. Louis after signing as a free agent on Dec. 2. He was 3-3 with a 2.87 goals-against average and in his final victory became the fifth-oldest goalie to post a shutout in a 3-0 win over Colorado on Dec. 29.

He last played on Jan. 2 in a loss at Anaheim and he hadn’t returned to the team since being granted a one-week leave of absence on Jan. 14. Brodeur had dropped to third on the depth chart after Elliott returned from a knee injury, with 24-year-old Jake Allen sharing the position.

“It’s an extremely smart move,” forward Alexander Steen said. “All the experience and all that stuff is so valuable to have in an organization. That stuff spreads.”

scored the Tigers (10-10, 2-5) 42-14.

Auburn has lost three straight games.

Jalen Jones added 13 points for the Aggies while Alex Robinson drove to the basket repeatedly and scored 12.

Antoine Mason led Auburn with 16 points and Cinmeon Bowers finished with 14 points and eight rebounds. KT Harrell scored 11, all in the second half.

The Aggies made half of their 56 field goals while holding Auburn to 15-of-44 shooting (34.1 percent).

Texas A&M scored on three straight dunks and

went ahead by a dozen points with seven minutes to go. Auburn never managed to pull to within single digits after that, and House’s 3-pointer with four minutes left pushed it to 67-52.

Auburn fans were riding House urging him to dunk it after his earlier missed one-hander when he drilled that final 3.

He hadn’t made more than four 3-pointers in a game coming in.

Auburn guard Tahj Shamsid-Deen aggravated a right shoulder injury with 2:19 left in the first half and didn’t return. ___

TIP-INS Texas A&M: Jumped out to an 8-0 lead as Auburn missed its first six shots.

Danuel House scored 13 of Texas A&M’s first 15 points over the first 5:18, with four 3-pointers and a made free throw after the fourth. It’s the Aggies’ first five-game conference winning streak since February 2011 in the Big 12.

Auburn: It was the first time Tigers coach Bruce Pearl had faced Texas A&M. The Tigers’ only big edge came at the free throw line where they made 25 of 35 attempts. (A&M was 9 of 17).

on missing tooth SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Tiger Woods was all smiles Tuesday — and with a full set of teeth.

Woods gave a play-byplay account of how his front tooth was knocked out in Italy on Jan. 19 while celebrating girlfriend Lindsey Vonn’s record 63rd World Cup victory. He said one tooth was chipped and the other was cracked.

Both were replaced before he arrived to start his season at the Phoenix Open.

He said he wore a skeleton-patterned scarf over his face to avoid being recognized, making a crack about how difficult that can be for a man of black heritage at a World Cup ski race in Italy.

“Not a lot of brown dudes at ski races, OK?” he said with a laugh, as cameras clicked at his smile.

Woods said when the race was completed, the podium presentation was moved up on a hill for the photographers. He went to the top of the hill, behind the cameras.

“All the camera guys are

below me on their knees or moving all around, trying to get a picture because she’s hugging people, saying congratulations to the other racers as they are coming down,” he said. “Some already finished, some are there already in the changing area. Dude with a video camera on his shoulder right in front me, kneeling, stood up and turned and caught me square on the mouth.”

Woods said he tried to keep his mask on “so the blood is not all over the place.”

He said the videographer hit the tooth on which he had root canal, chipping it.

He said the other tooth had to be fixed, too, because it had cracks through it.”

The photo of Woods missing a tooth became as big a sensation as Vonn’s record victory.

There did not appear to be any swelling on Woods’ mouth when a photographer captured the image of his mouth slightly open and the scarf lowered.

Vickers ‘still kicking,’ ready to race Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Brian Vickers is eager to get back on the racetrack and prove to everyone he still has what it takes to win Sprint Cup races following emergency open heart surgery last month.

“Reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated,” Vickers said Tuesday during NASCAR’s annual media week. “I am still kicking.”

Vickers will miss the first two Cup races as part of his recovery process, but has been given a clean bill of health to begin racing March 8 at Las Vegas. He will drive the No. 55 Aaron’s Toyota for Michael Waltrip Racing.

Vickers said doctors told him that three months will be more than enough time for his chest to heal after they were forced to crack open his sternum on Dec. 15 to repair a hole in his heart for a second time.

“I feel great,” said Vickers, a three-time Sprint Cup Series winner who had nine top-10 finishes last season and finished 22nd in the final standings.

The December setback was the third major health scare for Vickers since 2010.

Five years ago he under-

He missed 25 races during the 2010 season. He would miss an additional five races in 2013 after being placed on blood thinners to treat a blood clot in his right calf.

Vickers said the latest procedure was the most traumatic and the tough-

est to recover from, calling it “painful and extreme.” He briefly contemplated retiring from racing.

“I have had to deal with a lot of these emotions and thoughts several times now,” Vickers said. “Could I ever race again and, if I could, would I want to? ...

There was times where I was like, ‘somebody is trying to tell me something.’”

But Vickers said he is

driven to win a Sprint Cup championship, and doesn’t want to look back later in life in regret passing up a chance to reach that goal.

Vickers took over as a full-time driver for Michael Waltrip Racing last year after sharing a seat with Mark Martin in 2012 and most of 2013. His only win in 58 races with MWR came at New Hampshire in 2013.

Vickers’ toughness has resonated with the man who writes his checks.

“Not a lot of people have gone through what that young man has gone through,” Waltrip said.

“His determination and his desire to be a champion in the Sprint Cup series is something that motivates our whole team.”

Vickers’ latest heart issue came in December when he became ill on the way to a photo shoot.

He wound up at Carolinas Medical Center where doctors rushed him into surgery to repair the hole in his heart after his body rejected his artificial patch that was initially used in 2010.

At the time, the 31-yearold Vickers was told he may never race again.

“It was a pretty traumatic event going through that,” Vickers said. “It was the worst of all the medical procedures I have had to face.”

Through it all, Vickers hasn’t lost his sense of humor.

He sat on stage Tuesday joking with teammate Clint Bowyer about how doctors replaced his heart with that of a lion.

“Yeah, it’s way stronger,” Bowyer cracked.

Pain-free Stewart returns without swagger

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Tony Stewart, walking without a limp for the first time in 18 months, declared himself pain-free and never more eager to start a season.

After a tumultuous two seasons that affected him physically and mentally, the three-time NASCAR champion said Tuesday his troubles are behind him and he finally feels like the

old Smoke again.

“When they counted down to the end of 2014, I was never so happy to see that number go off the calendar,” he said. “I am ready to put the last two years behind me and never look back, not look in the mirror, not talking about it, not thinking about it. I am going back to being me again.”

His chance to prove it

begins next month at Daytona International Speedway, where Stewart will climb back into his No. 14 Chevrolet for the first time since November, when his 15-year winning streak in the Sprint Cup Series came to an end. He failed to win a race for the first time since his 1999 rookie season, and the streak ended on the same day Stewart-Haas Racing teammate

Kevin Harvick claimed his first championship.

Two weeks later, Stewart was back in the hospital for a fourth surgery on the right leg he broke in an August 2013 sprint car crash in Iowa. The damage from the injury has lingered, but he said the last procedure has him almost healed. He will have one more surgery at the end of 2015 to remove the titani-

um rod in his leg.

“Most of the pain is gone and I am walking better than I have since I had the accident,” Stewart said.

“Trust me, I can promise you, I am way healed up for what I need to do this year and it’s not going to be a factor in any race this season.”

He will start by seeking his first Daytona 500 win in 17 tries.

Patrick entering Season 3

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Danica Patrick begins her third full season at NASCAR’s top level facing an uncertain future.

Her contract with Stewart-Haas Racing is in its final year, as is the contract between primary sponsor GoDaddy and the race team. But Patrick, who is 32 and still adapting to NASCAR after seven seasons in IndyCar, has no intention of leaving her current race team.

“Well, I ain’t getting any younger and I don’t know how many times I can change my career,” she said Tuesday.

Patrick said she planned to remain at SHR as long as she has the support of co-owners Tony Stewart and Gene Haas, and the support of GoDaddy and other sponsors. She said she has had discussions with GoDaddy about the future.

“We have been talking about it for quite awhile,” she said. “They want to (continue) and we just have to make sure that we keep giving each other value. I know they give me value, so for me, it’s about giving back to them and we have been doing a lot of great things lately to promote their company.”

Patrick had progressed nicely under former crew chief Tony Gibson, but will paired this season with Daniel Knost after a November crew swap with Kurt Busch. She ran the final three races of the season with Knost and hopes the two will develop a solid rapport.

Big costs drag AT&T to 4Q loss, but revenue up 4%

Fox’s ‘Empire’ moving up charts NEW YORK (AP) — Fox’s music business soap “Empire” is moving up the charts.

The new series logged more than 11 million viewers last week, and has achieved the rare feat of growing its audience for each of its three weeks on the air, the Nielsen company said. The numbers don’t include people who watched on a time-shifted basis after the first night.

Among the youthful 18-to-49-year-old viewers that Fox cares most about, “Empire” was the mostwatched show of the week, Nielsen said. The previous week, it was beaten only by the Indianapolis-New England “Deflategate” football game.

The news couldn’t be better timed for hit-starved Fox, which won the week among youthful viewers, helped also by more auditions on “American Idol.”

Fox’s drama “Backstrom,” starring Rainn Wilson as a crotchety detective, had a strong showing with just under 8 million viewers sampling its debut.

After only two weeks on the air, Fox ordered a second season for “Empire.”

The CBS show “Scorpion” was the most-watched program among all viewers for the first time ever, taking advantage of a slow week where the normally popular “NCIS” and “The Big Bang Theory” aired reruns.

The “Miss Universe” pageant on NBC had its highest viewership since 2006.

Yahoo to spin off Alibaba stake into separate company SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer is spinning off the company’s prized stake in China’s Alibaba Group Holding in a move that will enable Yahoo to avoid paying billions of dollars in future taxes.

A newly formed entity called SpinCo will inherit ownership of Yahoo’s 384 million Alibaba shares when the taxfree spin-off is completed toward the end of this year.

Yahoo’s own stock gained $3.51, or more than 7 percent, to $51.50 in extended trading after Mayer disclosed her plans for Yahoo’s 15 percent stake in Alibaba.

Tuesday’s much-anticipated announcement overshadowed Yahoo’s results for the final three months of last year.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have been married for quite a while, and our intimate life became monotonous and unimaginative a long time ago. Over the years I have suggested we try things like role-playing and other non-extreme variations during intimate times. My suggestions were met with rolling eyes and retorts like, “I’m your wife, not a hooker.” I finally gave up and try to be content with what we have together.

Then one evening she surprised me and did one of the things I had suggested. It was very nice and she seemed to like it, too. I didn’t know

what to say to her. “Thank you” somehow seemed condescending.

We have done nothing like it since.

I doubt if the answer is in the etiquette books. What should I have said to her to let her know how much I appreciated her loosening up and hope it will perhaps make her more comfortable spicing things up in the future?

ETIQUETTE ADVOCATE IN SAN DIEGO

DEAR ADVOCATE: Praise is a powerful incentive.

Flowers would have been nice. But since you didn’t send any, try this: Invite your wife out to dinner at a nice restaurant. Tell her how surprised and delighted you were with the special surprise she gave you.

A small gift to commemorate the occasion couldn’t hurt either.

A satisfying sex life is all about communication, and if my mail is any indicator, if more wives were uninhibited in the bedroom, there would be a lot less business for the “professionals.”

#####

COMICS

DEAR ABBY: I have been dating a wonderful man for two years and am in hopes of getting a proposal soon.

We are both committed to staying pure before marriage and have not been intimate.

My question to you is, do I have to tell him, now or ever, that I have had breast implants? I did it several years ago, and it greatly improved my self-esteem. I’m glad I did it.

Since he has never felt any breasts, if I tell him, my fear is he will get hung up on the thought, “I wonder what REAL breasts feel like.” On the other hand, if I don’t tell him and sometime in the future he finds out, he may be like, “I can’t believe you kept that from me.” What would you advise?

RETICENT IN KENTUCKY DEAR RETICENT: Many women have breast enhancement surgery so their figures will be more balanced. For the reason you have mentioned,

you should tell your boyfriend. It should make no difference to him.

However, if it does, it’s better that you know now before you spend any more time on someone who measures the worth of a woman by how “real” her breasts are.

P.S. If he wants to know what “real” breasts feel like, tell him to go hug his mother.

FROM HELOISE

KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Readers: Take a peek in your spice drawer or spice rack. What do you see? If you see RED, then you might want to rethink where you should be seeing red! Most of us know to store spices within easy reach of the stove or cooktop. Of course, spices should be kept away from high heat, moisture and bright light.

But did you know that certain spices (a clue here to the color red) should be stored in the refrigerator?

Yep, red spices such as paprika, chili powder and cayenne pepper are best kept in the refrigerator to maintain color and flavor. This is especially true if you don’t use a lot and a bottle lasts a long time.

Dear Heloise: I have known for years that baking soda was good for extinguishing grease fires, but never gave it much thought. Recently, a pan of hot grease suddenly burst into flames.

Fortunately, I had been using baking soda for a cleaning chore and left the box in plain sight on the counter. I grabbed the box and tossed a handful of the soda on the flames (Heloise here: Toss the baking soda toward the base of the flames). The fire disappeared immediately!

Wanda B., Sawyer, Okla.

So glad you were able to handle the fire and stay safe! Remember, this is for small kitchen flare-ups!

Always try to put the lid on to smother the fire, and turn off the heat. Yes, baking soda is handy for many situations, and I have more hints available in my Heloise’s Baking Soda Hints and Recipes pamphlet. To order one, please send $5 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (70 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Baking Soda, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 782795001. Your hint about keeping a box of baking soda handy is sound advice. It’s a cheap product that serves so many purposes.

Dear Heloise: When I make real mashed potatoes, I bake the whole potatoes first.

Then I scoop out the insides, “flake” them, then add butter, salt, pepper, finely chopped onions and a dash of garlic juice.

I save the skins (as whole as possible), and we use them for “fake tacos” the next night. I put out all the toppings: chili, beans, cheese, lettuce, diced tomatoes and hot sauce. Everyone makes his or her own “flavor.”

Yvette in Georgia Dear Heloise: My nephew recently pointed out to me that it is usually easier to peel a banana from the bottom rather than from the stem end. He’s right!

Bonnie C. in Florida Dear Heloise: I needed to put a mixture of dried spices into small bottles, and the opening on my funnels was too small for the mixture to flow through. I cut off the small end of a sugar cone so it would fit the bottle opening, and the mixture went right through.
