Pirtle says it’s time to stop changing clocks

By Jeff Tucker Record Staff Writer

L

egislation introduced by state Sen. Cliff Pirtle to keep New Mexico on the same time year-round has stirred emotions, including one angry caller to the Daily Record who said the first-term senator should be jailed for the proposal.

Pirtle says his bill would end the confusion of setting clocks back an hour in the fall and forward an hour in the spring. His proposal would place the state on Mountain Daylight Time year-round.

“It’s been long enough that nobody knows why

we do it,” he said. “There seems to be no reason why we do it. I haven’t heard a good reason yet. Nobody knows. Then, why do we continue to do it?”

The measure, Senate Bill 377, has been assigned to the Senate Public Affairs Committee, where Pirtle said the bill would probably receive a hearing soon.

State Sen. Gerald Ortiz y Pino, D-Albuquerque, chairs the Public Affairs Committee. As of Friday, no hearing date had been set.

An aide to Ortiz y Pino told the Daily Record Friday the senator had no strong feelings on the proposal and it would not come up for a while.

Pirtle, R-Roswell, said state Senate leaders have yet to weigh in.

“I think everybody is kind of wanting to see what kind of traction it gets as to where it goes,” Pirtle said.

“A lot of people kind of laugh it off because it’s just become kind of this joke.

But it’s a lot more serious.

It’s garnering more and more support every year as people are just tired of doing something that they don’t understand why we do it. We want to stop the madness.”

Pirtle says changing clocks twice a year no longer makes sense. He also says the time changes have

adverse health effects, cause heart attacks and increase mishaps and accidents.

‘Karst,’ caves, bats and cow dung — ­ Oh my!

By Timothy P. Howsare Record Editor Ask a roomful of Rotarians in Roswell if they know what the word “karst” means and only half of them will raise their hands.

But if you were to pose the same question at a similar meeting in the Tampa Bay area, there’s a pretty good chance every hand in the room would go up. Many Floridians have learned the answer to this question the hard way. Either their house or a neighbor’s was swallowed up or significantly damaged by a sinkhole — the sudden collapse of the surface land after the limestone rock underneath was eroded away by water.

Karst is the word used to describe an area of limestone terrain characterized by sinks, ravines and underground streams.

We do have sinkholes that formed naturally near Roswell at the Bitter Lake

Election results unchanged after county canvass

By Jeff Jackson Record Staff Writer

Voting results in the Chaves County school elections were canvassed Friday morning with no changes from Tuesday night’s preliminary reports.

Magistrate Judge K.C. Rogers certified the results and County Clerk Dave Kunko recorded them in the clerk’s office while school district representatives from Dexter, Lake Arthur, Hagerman, ENMU-R and the Roswell Independent School District were present.

Two slots on the five-member RISD board were decided and filled

by James W. Waldrip in Position 2 and Ruben J. Sanchez in Position 4. Waldrip retained his position against Carey D. Smith by 65 votes of the 709 cast, while challenger Sanchez unseated board president Pauline J. Ponce with a 16-vote edge out of 342. Ponce was serving her first term.

In addition, a $16 mil-

lion bond issue presented by RISD passed by a 77 percent margin out of 2,242 votes.

Two contested races for seats on the Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell Community College board were canvassed Friday, with the incumbents winning. Mireya P. Trujillo topped Leandro Gutierrez 172-133 in District 1, and Ralph E. Fresquez beat Michael A. Buldra 253-131 in District 4.

In District 5, incumbent Dawn M, Tschabrun received 417 votes and was uncontested.

Four candidates were running for three seats on the Dexter school board, and the odd man out was write-in candidate Jared Sanders who received 11 votes.

Board president Amanda Bogle led the field with 89 votes, followed by newcomer Bobby Dale Vaughn with 83.

The third chair on the board went to Michael E. See ELECTION, Page A2

and Bottomless Lakes, but those have existed long before the first humans arrived here. And there is little or no threat that a house or a building in downtown Roswell will disappear into a sinkhole as several prized Corvette Stingrays did a year ago at a car museum in Kentucky.

Roswell Rotary Club members got an introduction to all things karst — along with a bit more info on a subject most already have some familiarity with, caves — during their lunch meeting Thursday.

The guest speakers were George Venti and Dianne Joop from the National Cave and Karst Research Institute in Carlsbad, a nonprofit organization dedicated to cave and karst research across the globe.

NCKRI was created in 1998 in partnership with the National Park Service, the State of New Mexico and the city of Carlsbad.

It receives state and federal funding administered by New Mexico Tech.

Venti holds a doctorate in geology from Pennsylvania State University. He served as executive secretary of the National Speleological Society’s Section of Cave Geology and Geography for 11 years and president of the Texas Speleological Survey for 13 years.

Joop is an experienced educator with a focus on caves, karst, science and math. Before transitioning into education, she spent nearly a decade in theatrical and television production with Kentucky Educational Television.

Venti said karst landscape covers about 25 percent of the America landscape.

He said there are tourist caves, like Carlsbad Caverns. But a cave, by definition, is any underSee KARST, Page A2

Another benefit is archaeology. Caves preserve artifacts that would otherwise blow away or disintegrate on the surface.

Then there are economic benefits. For instance, Mammoth Cave in central Kentucky provides jobs for 9,000 people if you combine the number of people who work for the park itself with all employees who staff the restaurants, shops and gas stations that profit from tourists visiting the cave.

The last benefit Venti mentioned was the incredible amount of geological information stored in those awe-inspiring crystals that form in caves, stalactites and stalagmites.

Joop, the education director, gave the second half of the presentation.

She said that a 2,000-square-foot interactive museum will soon find a home inside the walls of their building.

“We are now finishing the lab and the library,” she said.

Man arrested for disorderly conduct

The Roswell Police Department arrested Zevero Guadalupe Chavez, 36, of Roswell, in the 2000 block of North Main Street at 10:03 p.m. Thursday on a charge of disorderly conduct.

Car crashes into electrical box

She held up a prop — a large, blow-up globe of the earth to illustrate that caves and karst landscapes are all over the globe.

Then she touched on how agriculture can affect groundwater.

One dairy farm, Joop said, can produce as much sewage as the entire city of Las Cruces.

And with that solid waste comes the potential for nitrates and bacterium such as e-coli leaching into the groundwater.

In Walkerton, Ontario, for instance, a large number of people became extremely sick from e-coli that had infiltrated the groundwater, Joop said.

In Chaves County, Joop said there are 85,000 cows and they produce as much solid waste in a year as the entire population of Chicago.

Joop, Venti and Suzanna Langowski, advancement director for NCKRI, reassured the Daily Record after the meeting that all of this “cow poop” does

not leach into the aquifer underneath Roswell, because there is a buffer zone between the surface and the aquifer.

Perhaps harkening back to her experience as a school teacher, Joop held up one by one the inflatable globe, a small waste basket, a laundry basket and a 15- by 15-inch ottoman and asked the inquisitive Rotarians which of the four objects represents the amount of waste a single cow produces in a day.

The Daily Record guessed the laundry basket, which was the second largest of the four objects.

That answer was wrong.

The correct answer was the ottoman, which was bigger than the waste basket but smaller than the laundry basket.

Even still, that’s more cow dung than anybody would want to scrape off their shoes for an entire lifetime.

Karst ground cavity accessible by humans.

“There are 2,000 documented caves in New Mexico and 10,000 around the country, and most people have never heard of them,” said Venti, who seems equally at home crawling around in spelunking gear as his does in a tweed jacket giving a PowerPoint presentation.

“I do the Star Trek thing, going where ‘no man has gone before,’” he said.

Venti said cave explorers like himself will “measure what’s there.”

Venti then went down the list of the benefits of caves.

First and foremost is water.

“Forty million Americans rely on karst water,” he said. “Caves are like natural pipelines.”

Another benefit of caves is habitat for wildlife — bats in particular.

He said that bats, which feast on insects, save American agriculture between $3 billion to $5 billion a year in pesticides.

Pirtle Continued from Page A1

“The other big pro is I think you would see a lot more productivity just from people not changing back and forth,” Pirtle said.

“When it gets dark at 4:30 in the wintertime, people can’t help but slowly start working slower and slower in the evening. With the legislation that I’ve proposed, it would still be light enough all the way to 5, 5:30, even 6 o’clock in the winter, so you would have time after work with sunlight. I think we would find an increase in productivity in the winter months.”

Pirtle said New Mexicans like the extra hour of afternoon daylight that comes with the statewide switch to daylight saving time in March.

His bill would keep New Mexico on Mountain Daylight Time for eight months a year and Central Standard Time throughout the entire year.

“However you want to look at it, it’s the same,” Pirtle said. “We’re on Mountain daylight saving time 12 months out of the year. That’s the simplest way to look at it. Or we’re on Central Standard Time 12 months out of the year.

However you want to look at it, we don’t change our clocks. It’s year-round.

“To prevent confusion, it was just easier to say we’re going to stay on Mountain daylight saving time yearround.”

If enacted, Pirtle’s bill would place New Mexico in the same Central standard time zone as most of Texas, although Texas observes daylight saving time, meaning New Mexico and Texas would have the same clock readings in four winter months.

Currently, New Mexico, like Colorado, observes daylight saving time eight months of the year, from March through November, and is on Mountain Standard Time for four months in winter.

Pirtle’s bill would put all of New Mexico on the same time as Dallas and Chicago for four months of the year, and behind of those two cities by an hour for the eight months around summertime.

“Right now, let’s say my bill had passed last year, so we would be on daylight saving time,” Pirtle said. “So we would be on the same time right now as Dallas (and Chicago). Then, whenever they spring forward, they would then be an hour ahead of us. Phoenix would always be one hour behind us. Denver would be the same time as us in the summer, for eight months out of the year, and then one hour behind us during the winter.”

One last time change would take effect in New Mexico when the state moves forward from Mountain Standard Time to Mountain Daylight Time on March 8.

“In November, we wouldn’t change clocks,” Pirtle said. “We’ll be on Mountain Daylight Time, which is the same as central standard, so we’ll just never change. Once we spring forward, we’ll stay on that time for forever, I guess.”

Some have said states are not allowed under federal law to adopt daylight saving time year-round.

But Pirtle said federal law allows states to join the standard time zone of a bordering state to the east, such as Texas.

“It is not necessarily illegal, it’s just you have to go about it in a different way,” Pirtle said. “Yes, you cannot technically stay on daylight saving time. We don’t want to go on daylight saving time central, because that would be two hours forward. We just want to stay on summertime, yearround, which is mountain daylight saving, but officially it will be central standard. It is absolutely lawful, but it’s just a little bit

more creative way of doing so.”

Some suggest the federal government might pull funding if New Mexico adopted essentially daylight saving time year-round.

“They try to claim that they’ll pull the transportation money,” Pirtle said. “I doubt they would ever do anything. I’ve had discussions with other people from other states regarding this issue. They’re fairly certain that if we just exempted ourselves, that it would actually be following the spirit of the federal law.

“And the spirit of the federal law, what they wanted to prevent from happening, is states coming on and off daylight saving time, so changing say whenever they felt like it, or staying on standard time. So by staying on daylight saving time, we’re still staying in the spirit of the law. We’re not just changing willy-nilly. We’ve picked a time and we’ve stuck with it. There have been a few lawyers look at that. They’re fairly certain that a federal judge would hold up that you’re following the spirit of the law and would actually allow it to stand.

“So basically the spirit of the law is they want states to either participate when the feds say so, or to pick a time and stick with it. They laid out standard time.

We’re wanting to just go to daylight saving time and I have found a way to do that in a creative way.”

Like Arizona, New Mexico would not switch times at any point in the year.

“It would put us one hour ahead year-round,” Pirtle said. “We’re one hour ahead of them eight months out of the year. We would then be one hour ahead of them 12 months out of the year. They stay on standard time.”

Pirtle said his bill would not cause confusion with neighboring states.

“No more different than what we have with Arizona now,” he said. “Arizona is on standard time all the time. You just get used to it being different.”

Pirtle said his proposal has obtained widespread support, although he acknowledged it has agitated some people.

“There’s been a few people, maybe one or two, out of maybe 200 to 300 people say, ‘You’re an idiot. What are you doing?’” he said.

“I’m like, wow, that’s a little strong.”

Shortly after Pirtle last week announced the introduction of the bill, a caller to the Daily Record had unkind words for Pirtle.

“Just because this clown ain’t got enough sense to switch his clock when the time comes, doesn’t mean that the rest of us have to be affected by this idiot,” said Robert Jenkins of Roswell. “He’s a useless clown act. He ought to be in jail for being an ignorant clown act.”

Despite the vitriol, Pirtle said most New Mexicans prefer daylight saving time and want to stop changing their clocks.

“They want to stay with whatever time we’re in during the summer,” Pirtle said. “They like that extra hour in the evening.

“People bring up in the debate, the kids will be going to school in the dark.

In my opinion, it’s not that big of a deal. To me, it’s a very simple issue. It’s not a deal breaker. Just change what time you go to school to a little bit later. And in all actuality, there’s only about a four-week period there around the winter solstice when the days are the shortest that is a problem. The majority of that time, they’re on holiday break. To me, that’s not as big changing what time kids go to school as it is changing every single person’s clock.”

Pirtle said his bill has bipartisan support.

“I’ve had a lot of members out of the House that are who you would consider progressive Democrats that really want to support it,” he said. “It’s become

General quite the buzz. Everyone wants to talk about it.

“This is a really big issue.

Everyone says, ‘We’ve got bigger things to worry about.’ I just want to let everyone know we’re working on those, too. We only have 60 days every two years to work on all legislation. We’re working on the very, very important issues.

But this is also a very important issue to a lot of people. A lot of people do not realize the health problems that come with changing your clock, what it’s doing to our bodies every time we do that.

“Changing your clock twice a year affects every single person in this country personally. Everybody has an opinion one way or the other.”

Pirtle introduced a similar bill two years ago.

“Two years ago, I introduced it to exempt us onto standard time,” he said.

“And that’s when I learned the majority of people want to stop changing their clocks, but they want to stay on daylight savings time. The majority of people want to stop changing the clocks, and out of those, the vast, vast majority of them want to go to daylight saving time year-round. So that’s when I came up with this way of doing it.”

The federal Standard Time Act of 1918 established standard time zones for the United States, bounded by designated meridian lines.

The federal Uniform Time Act of 1966 established an annual advancement from standard time in March of each year, commonly called daylight savings time, and an annual return to standard time about eight months later.

A section of the Uniform Time Act of 1966 authorizes a state that is entirely situated within one time zone, such as New Mexico, to exempt itself from the change to daylight savings time as long as it does so uniformly throughout the entire state.

Pirtle’s bill directs the governor, prior to Jan. 1, 2016, to apply to the U.S. secretary of transportation for the state to be transferred to the central time zone pursuant to the federal Standard Time Act of 1918.

Upon approval of a transfer to the central time zone by the U.S. secretary of transportation, the uniform time within New Mexico would be known as Mountain Daylight Savings Time.

Pirtle’s proposal has sparked dozens of comments on the Daily Record’s Facebook page.

Julie Long Donahue agreed changing clocks causes problems.

“I don’t care if we stay on daylight time or stay on standard time, she said. “I just think we need to do away with switching time twice a year. Research has shown an increase in accidents every time we spring forward.”

Kathy Carrasco said Pirtle’s proposal would wreak havoc with airline schedules.

“I just don’t see the big advantage,” she said. “It’s not that hard to switch back and forth.”

RoseMarie Baumann said she would love to not change clocks, but has some concerns.

“But what would happen with all of our electronics that automatically change time, now?” she asked.

“Would that create a bigger pain?”

Sharon Webb Cates said she lived in Arizona a few years.

“It was nice to keep the same time,” she said. “I’m all for it. I hear NM isn’t the only state wanting to do away with the change.”

Bethany Shannon said she doesn’t want to be on the same time as Texas.

“Anything that makes us more like Texas sucks,” she said.

Roswell Daily Record

Keep your hands off my public lands The push for state takeover of federal land provoked a big push back. Last week, the roar of hundreds of angry hunters, anglers and others filled the Capitol Rotunda and sent me scampering out of the press gallery to see what was going on.

A standing-room-only crowd of camo-wearing folks rallied to say they won’t stand for the loss of one acre.

“I don’t want to see ANY public land sold,” said a gun store owner, to loud cheering. “I also have an issue of wasted money for studies other states have already done.”

They wore stickers saying, “Keep your hands off MY public lands.”

The source of all this excitement is Senate Memorial 6 by Sen. Pat Woods, R-Broadview, which asks the state to study federal land management and ownership and evaluate the impacts of federal revenue streams on the state and local

Sherry Robinson All She Wrote communities. Reportedly, Rep. Yvette Herrell, R-Alamogordo, plans to introduce a similar measure.

Last year, counties received $37.7 million in federal payments in lieu of taxes (PILT), and the state received $9.5 million from the Secure Rural Schools program. Counties depend on these revenue streams to provide roads and services, but “increasing uncertainty regarding the federal commitment” to fund the programs makes it difficult for counties to budget, according to the memorial.

Wood and other proponents argue that the state would do a better job of managing the lands and could even earn more revenue from development, logging, grazing, and oil and gas royalties.

Opponents, led by the New Mexico Wildlife Federation and Trout Unlimited, see only a loss of lands, loss of access and a thinly disguised prelude to selling off the most valuable lands.

On Jan. 15, the governor and lawmakers received a letter signed by 21 sportsmen’s organizations asking them to oppose the transfer federal lands and not waste taxpayer money on studies.

“These lands belong to all Americans — including generations not yet born — and we do not want them lost or locked up forever,” said the letter.

The groups fear that when states find they can’t afford the management costs, they will sell land to the highest bidder.

Hunting and fishing, they note, bring in more than $613 million a year and $51 million a year in state and local taxes. Nearly 90 percent of sportsmen hunt and fish on public lands. “These lands are not ‘excess’ or unproductive.”

Standing in the crowd, listening intently, was former State Land Commissioner Ray Powell.

When the question surfaced several years ago, he told me later, his office looked at the legal and constitutional basis of such a transfer.

“There is no basis,” he said.

“It can’t happen and it won’t happen.”

Powell opposes the transfer but considers this controversy a time waster that could distract lawmakers from more important work.

Attorney Blair Dunn, son of State Land Commissioner Aubrey Dunn, thinks there was some understanding until 1976, when Congress authorized

PILT, that the federal government would give more land to the states, but that’s arguable.

Dunn represents the American Lands Council, which supports transfer.

Utah and Nevada have demanded federal lands, but Congress must approve. Not likely. Polling last fall found no strong support. In eight western states, 59 percent of respondents (68 percent in New Mexico) oppose state takeover of federal lands because of the financial burden on their states.

Firefighting costs alone could be a deal breaker — more than $240 million in 2011 and 2012 just in New Mexico forests, plus millions more for restoration.

New Mexico has a long, painful history of land frauds that causes us, rightfully, to look hard at land schemes. That and a tight budget should make lawmakers scuttle the idea.

Powell is right. We have bigger fish to fry.

Editorial

Dismantling financial reform piece by piece Because this is a nation with a famously short attention span, it tends to repeat its mistakes. For instance, just 28 years after the fall of Saigon, the United States invaded Iraq.

By that standard, it’s been a mere blink of any eye since that bizarre weekend in mid-September 2008 when the U.S. economy teetered on the abyss dug by irrationally exuberant Wall Street bankers. The economy has only recently, but not entirely, recovered. But already efforts are well underway to repeat the mistake.

The nation’s chief response to the Great Recession caused by the subprime mortgage crisis was the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, signed into law in July 2010. Wall Street succeeded in watering it down, but still it provided a firewall against a repeat of 2008.

Money never sleeps. Wall Street quickly turned its attention to repealing DoddFrank piece by technical piece. The mustpass omnibus spending bill passed by Congress in December contained a provision largely written by CitiGroup lobbyists.

It repealed a Dodd-Frank rule that said banks couldn’t foist off the risks of trading those exotic products called derivatives onto taxpayers.

And last month, the House passed something called the Promoting Job Creation and Reducing Small Business Burdens Act. It should have been called the Getting Rid of Most of the Rest of DoddFrank Act. Should it pass the Senate, the White House says President Barack Obama will veto it.

Consumer financial protection and reining in the excesses of big banks are issues that poll well, but most Americans aren’t tuned in to the day-to-day machinations of Congress. That’s why one provision of Dodd-Frank created a new agency called the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Big banks would like to get rid of it, too.

Congressional Republicans complain that the CFPB is too independent — “an unaccountable federal leviathan,” in the words of House Financial Services Committee Chairman Jeb Hensarling, R-Texas.

If a tiny federal agency is a whale, what is the financial industry?

It’s true that the CFPB is funded by the Federal Reserve and run by a single director, not a board of directors. This became necessary because, as Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., speaking of the relationship between banks and Congress, once blurted out, “Frankly, they own the place.”

In three years, the CFRB has made it harder for mortgage lenders to steer customers into high-interest loans, particularly for risky properties. It has required lenders to verify customers’ ability to repay mortgages. It has required lenders to work harder with delinquent borrowers to avoid foreclosure. It has cracked down on credit card scams. It has shined the light on the banking industry’s $30-billion-a-year overdraft protection fee gimmicks.

Sounds like it’s doing the job it was intended to do.

The CFPB has now set its sights on the payday lending industry. State laws are too lax, the bureau says, and at the very least payday lenders should be honest about the cost of the money they lend.

The industry works by lending small amounts — usually about $500 — to people who otherwise would be unable to get short-term credit. In Missouri, the interest on short-term loans could go as high as 1,950 percent, figured on an annual basis. The typical payday loan in Missouri carries an interest rate of 455 percent. Not surprisingly, borrowers get into a cycle of debt, taking out a second loan to cover the first, a third to cover the second, etc., etc.

See EDITORIAL, Page A5

Looking into the year and years ahead A futurist I’m not, but like most people, I do like to gaze into the unknown from time to time, even if it is an exercise in uncertainty. So in the spirit of the new year, I thought I’d throw out a few predictions, starting with a couple of obvious ones.

Here in the U.S., we’re moving toward the legalization of recreational marijuana, and I expect that to go all the way.

After a century of consumption, it has become clear to most Americans that the “reefer madness” we’ve experienced has been in the form of insane drug policies that never even worked in the first place.

It won’t be long before the states will force the federal government to allow this underground economy to

Tom McDonald Guest Columnist come out of the shadows and go mainstream nationally. In the meantime, here in New Mexico, I wouldn’t expect legalization for a few more years. Our Republican governor opposes legalization, and since the GOP is notoriously good at keeping its underlings in lockstep with its leadership, she and the state House will keep the issue at bay.

But, come 2018, I’ll be expecting a viable gubernatorial candidate to run in support of legalization. I’ll bet by

the end of this decade recreational pot will be legal here as well.

The other obvious trend I see is with same-sex marriages. It won’t be long before it’s not only legal throughout the U.S., but I think it’ll be embraced as a modern American family value, even re-energizing the institution of marriage — which has been suffering for decades now.

I predict (or maybe I’m just hoping) that the next big marriage issue in the U.S. will be related to childbirth. Studies show kids are better off with two-parent households, so I expect to see public service announcements touting “the marriage commitment” in the years ahead.

As for religion, I see a resurgence in the tenets of Christi-

anity, thanks largely to Pope Francis. He’s pushing the faithful back to Jesus’ main message of service — to the poor — and he’s lashing out against the “money changers in the temple” who have perverted the faith to their liking. A truly Christian message may actually hit a greedy Wall Street harder than any governmental regulation.

I also see a resurgence for Islam. True Islam. Terrorism isn’t part of that faith, and I see Muslims speaking out against the extremists who are hijacking their faith.

The world needs to recognize “Islamic extremists” for who they really are: Terrorists with no spiritual grounding whatsoever.

They’re not our greatest

These tips can help with mild cognitive impairment DEAR DOCTOR K: My father’s doctor says he has mild cognitive impairment.

What does that mean?

DEAR READER: Mild age-related memory loss — “Where did I leave my keys?”

— is normal. But people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) have memory loss and/ or trouble thinking that are more persistent and severe than normal.

There are two types of MCI. Amnestic MCI involves memory loss. People with non-amnestic MCI have problems with other cognitive functions.

They may have difficulty with language: They may have trouble finding the words to express themselves. Or they may have trouble concentrat-

Ask Dr. K United Media Syndicate ing on a task, or in figuring things out, like how to replace the battery in the remote.

Some people have both types of MCI. MCI differs from normal, age-related memory loss in the kind of information a person forgets. With normal memory loss, people tend to forget things that aren’t terribly important to them.

They might forget the name

of a casual acquaintance, for example. With MCI, a person may not be able to learn and retain important new information. They may not remember the name of the new president of the company they work for.

Or they may forget about the upcoming wedding of a family member.

On memory tests, people with amnestic MCI have more trouble remembering the details of pictures they’ve just seen or paragraphs they’ve recently read. Their memory difficulty is comparable to that of someone with very mild Alzheimer’s disease.

But they do well on tests that measure other mental functions, such as their ability to keep the details of routine

activities straight. On these tests, people with amnestic MCI perform as well as people who don’t have MCI. And they perform much better than people with Alzheimer’s.

In a person with MCI, cognitive impairment does not yet substantially interfere with day-to-day functioning. This is the critical difference between someone with MCI and someone with dementia.

Some people with MCI remain stable for years. But people with MCI are much more likely to develop dementia, particularly Alzheimer’s disease.

There is no specific treatment for MCI. The following tips can help your father opti-

we’re going to keep our planet habitable into the 22nd century.

Also in our world of tomorrow, technology will be a two-edged sword.

We’ve got to program morality into our computers, because it won’t be long before they will know more than we do. Without certain ethical standards programmed in — like

Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics — there’s nothing to stop artificial intelligence from eventually deciding it doesn’t need us biological beings. Say I’ve been watching too many sci-fi flicks if you want, but I think we run the risk of being eliminated by our own creation.

And since I’m already “out there” in my predic-

tions, I’ll add this: I think science will someday prove the existence of an afterlife. Right now, we have little more than antidotal evidence of consciousness after death, while scientists are discovering more and more about “creation” every day. Evidently, I think we’ll discover that it’s more than “blind faith” that causes people to believe in God.

“We want your business!”

Raymond E. Bush Manager

Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil (Mt. 6:13) Before his death in an automobile accident, music artist Rich Mullins wrote a song titled, We Are Not as Strong as We Think We Are. Though pop psychology and poor theology tries to trick us into believing otherwise, we are very, very weak. “The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak” (Mt. 26:40), said the master to his disciples, because in the hour on the threshold of spiritual war, they slept. Elsewhere Jesus says, “Apart from me you can do nothing” (Jn. 15:5). Against the power of Hell and our own corrupt desires, we are no match. So pray accordingly (see Mt. 6:13)! We must petition God for protection from the gravest of dangers- damaged desires and the Devil. The latter “prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour” (1 Pt. 5:8). But the former is the root of temptation: “Each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death (Jms. 1:14-15). We are weak, but Christ is not. Where we failed, he conquered. In his perfect life he resisted temptation and in his powerful death he defeated Hell, reigning in resurrection afterwards. Therefore, “everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning, but he who was born of God [i.e. Jesus] protects him, and the evil one does not touch him” (1 Jn. 5:18). Have you been born of God? It is good we have a Savior able to “sympathize with our weaknesses” and deliver us from sin and death too (Heb. 4:15, Rom. 8:2), for we are not as strong as we think we are.

Obama: Scaling back college savings benefits wasn’t worth it

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — President Barack Obama said Friday that he dropped a widely criticized plan to scale back tax benefits for college savings accounts because the savings weren’t worth it.

Obama, who revealed that he uses the 529 savings accounts for his own daughters, said he looked at reducing the tax savings because the accounts tend to be used by “folks who were a little more on the high end.” He says other taxpayers struggled to save enough to participate.

About 12 million families take advantage of college savings plans, in which money can eventually be withdrawn with no tax on earnings to pay for postsecondary education costs.

About half the accounts were held by families making more than $150,000, according to a 2012 report by the Government Accountability Office.

The administration initially estimated that scaling back the tax breaks would bring in about $1 billion over 10 years. Obama

President Barack Obama answers audience questions at Ivy Tech Community College, Friday, in Indianapolis. Obama is promoting his budget proposal to make two years of community college free. had planned to use the savings But he quickly backed off after to help fund his proposal to make lawmakers from both parties two years of community college objected. free for all. “Our thinking was you “It wasn’t worth it for us to could save money by eliminat- eliminate it,” Obama said. “The ing the 529 and shifting it into savings weren’t that great. So some other loan programs that we actually, based on response, would be more broadly based,” changed our mind and are going Obama told a crowd of nearly 400 to be paying for the two years of at a town hall meeting at Ivy Tech free community college with other Community College. sources.”

Obama’s remarks were his first on the matter since the White House announced the shift last week, saying the issue had become a distraction. The president’s comments came in response to a question from a woman who said she uses the accounts to help her grandchildren.

The president mixed politics with the personal as he touted his higher education agenda while talking about his own experience as a one-time student and the father of a daughter on her own college hunt.

In response to a questioner who asked about help paying the rising costs of books, Obama said he understood the problem all too well after having to buy his own during undergraduate and law school.

“In addition to the bonds of love, we had the bonds of debt.

Our net worth was negative,” Obama said.

Obama chuckled at kids these days on the college hunt. His

older daughter, Malia, is checking out colleges during her junior year of high school.

“These days, I hear everybody’s looking for fancy gyms and gourmet food and really spiffy dorms,” Obama said. He said that when he started at California’s Occidental College, the weight room amounted to not much more than a medicine ball and the cafeteria served food that wasn’t very appetizing.

Pharrell, Chaka Khan, Miguel support Snoop Dogg at show LOS ANGELES (AP) — Snoop Dogg dropped it like it’s hot with Pharrell, Chaka Khan and others at a pre-Grammy concert that went into the wee hours of the morning.

The rapper headlined a concert for Levi’s on Thursday night at the Hollywood Palladium, performing from his catalog of anthems, from “What’s My Name” to “Beautiful” and “Drop It Like It’s Hot,” where he was joined by Pharrell.

Dogg announced that Pharrell is executive producing his new album, “Bush,” due out this spring. They performed its first single, “Peaches N Cream,” for the few thousands in the crowd — which included Daft Punk, T.I., Leona Lewis and Tyler, the Creator.

Special guests who earned a rousing applause as they entered the stage included Chaka Khan and rapper Too Short. Khan, who also performed at Essence’s pre-Grammy bash on Thursday, sang “Ain’t Nobody.”

Tony Dungy says Roswell boys top Lovington, 53-38, for sixth straight victory he thinks Manning will return next season if healthy

By Jeff Jackson Record Staff Writer Having their top scorer register zero points slowed down the Roswell Coyotes a bit Friday night but it still didn’t keep them from winning.

Daniel Amador entered Friday’s game averaging 18 points a game, and that figure dropped by a point, but the host Coyotes won battles on a team and individual basis to defeat Lovington 53-38.

“It wasn’t the prettiest win we’ve ever had,” was a quick summation from coach Britt Cooper after the Coyotes prevailed and improved to 17-3 and 2-0 in the district.

Frank De La O scored a game-high-tying 19 points to fill the offensive void, and Jaivon Hicks added 12 while staving off his fifth foul for the last 9½ minutes of the game amidst banging toe-to-toe with a player 5 inches taller.

That player for the Wildcats, Stephen Lennox, matched De La O in the scorebook by scoring 19 points and also grabbed 12 rebounds, estimated Lovington coach Casey Riddle.

Most of those boards came defensively but the 6-foot8-inch postman also had a few second-chance putbacks for the Wildcats (1210, 0-2).

Nevertheless and cautious of the foul peril, the Coyotes’ Hicks powered his way to a pair of 3-point plays in a 1:50 span from the end of the third to early

Lady Coyotes knock off Lovington, 56-36

By Jeff Jackson Record Staff Writer

There appeared to be some plumbing work needed Friday night by the Roswell High School girls basketball team.

The Lady Coyotes went to work on it at the start of the second quarter and flowed to a 56-36 victory over visiting Lovington.

The Lady Wildcats led for much of the opening period but Roswell overcame the early deficit and led 14-10 after the first quarter.

That’s when coach Joe Carpenter opened the team’s toolbox.

“We needed to pick up our defense and make sure we got underneath the ball. That was our major adjustment in the second quarter,” Carpenter said.

“I felt like our defense was so spread out that we needed to make sure that we clogged up their penetration because they have great penetrators. They got kids that can get to the front of the rim.”

The Coyotes (18-3, 2-0 in

district) blanked the Wildcats (11-8, 1-1) 11-0 for all but the last 20 seconds of the second quarter and went into halftime with a 25-12 lead.

Only in the final minute did Lovington create inside scoring opportunities with several shots that missed.

“They were rushing. They were stressing. They got behind and it makes those shots harder to go in and when we’re shooting the ball real well then it’s easy for those shots to go in,” Carpenter said. “You have

NCAA to experiment with different rules, 30-second shot clock for NIT

With scoring plunging to historic lows, the NCAA said Friday it will experiment with a shorter shot clock at this year’s NIT to see if that can jumpstart college basketball’s lagging offense.

The tournament will feature a 30-second shot clock instead of the traditional 35-second clock that has been in play since 1993, with officials examining the effect on the games and taking the data to the men’s basketball rules committee for review in May. “Without actually implementing it in a game, you’re just talking about it in theory,” Dan Gavitt, NCAA vice president of men’s basketball championships, said on Friday.

“By actually putting it in a game with good teams, great coaches, competitive situations over a threeweek time period, you’ll actually get results and data that can either verify some of your theories or dispute them.”

The NCAA will also expand the restricted area under the basket from 3 feet to 4 feet to see if it curbs the amount of collisions at the rim. Coaches who play in the tournament will be surveyed about their experience, and the rules committee will look at all

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.

(AP) — Count Tony Dungy among those who believe Peyton Manning will play in 2015.

“I was with him last week and he didn’t give me any indication one way or another, but he certainly didn’t say anything to me that led me to believe he wouldn’t be playing,” Manning’s former coach told The Associated Press.

Dungy said he thought only a serious injury would prevent Manning from playing an 18th NFL season.

Manning delivered a shocker after Denver’s 24-13 loss to Indianapolis in the playoffs, saying he was unsure whether he’d return for a fourth year with the Broncos. The team then parted ways with coach John Fox and hired Gary Kubiak.

After a terrific start in 2014, one that saw him surpass Brett Favre as the NFL’s touchdown champion, Manning dealt with a nagging thigh injury that hampered his performance down the stretch and in the playoff loss to his former team.

“My gut feeling is that he’ll be back unless he really has a health-related problem,” Dungy said. “He enjoys the team. He enjoys his teammates. I think he really wants to come back and play well and not let that be the last game of his career.”

Former Broncos great Terrell Davis, now an analyst for the NFL Network, said he, too, feels Manning will put off retirement at least until 2016. But Davis said he doesn’t think the Broncos’ last game will be a motivating factor.

“My gut tells me that he comes back. But if he comes back just because he didn’t want to go out like this, I don’t know if that’s the right reason,” Davis said. “You come back because you love the game, you want to compete, you enjoy working out, you

enjoy going to practice.”

These are all things Manning is ostensibly deciding after heeding GM John Elway’s advice not to make a rash decision in the emotional aftermath of a season that finished so shy of expectations — another trip to the Super Bowl.

Manning overthrew eight passes in Denver’s playoff loss, an indication to Dungy that Manning was hampered by his health.

“I’ve never seen him miss balls by as much as he missed them in that final game,” Dungy said. “Usually, he misses a pass and it’s inches off or a foot off, not a couple of yards off.

So, I have to believe there was something physical in that last game and probably coming down the stretch, too.

“And when I look at those first eight or 10 games of the season, you didn’t see that. You saw nice balls and on-target throws and that just why I’m guessing and just looking from afar, I haven’t talked to him about it, but my guess from watching him all these years, I think it was something physical.”

In an appearance during Super Bowl week, Manning’s father, Archie, said he had no advice for his son regarding retirement.

“I would never tell him what to do and I don’t have an opinion,” said the patriarch of football’s first family. “I want him to do what’s in his heart and what he thinks is best. He’s pretty good at that. He’ll be 39 years old and he’s had to make big decisions before and he’s usually made a pretty good one.

“So, I know one thing you can count on about Peyton: he will lay it all out there. He will evaluate everything and make a decision. So, we’re confident whatever that is, it’s going to be the right decision.”

Refs union backs female ref after Chris Paul’s comments NEW YORK (AP) — The union representing NBA referees defended official Lauren Holtkamp on Friday after “personal and unprofessional comments” by Clippers guard Chris Paul.

Paul criticized the rookie referee Thursday, saying she might not be ready for the big leagues after six seasons in the minors.

Holtkamp is one of two active female officials in the NBA. Lee Seham, general counsel of the National Basketball Referees Association, said in a statement his group reviewed Holtkamp’s calls and “deems them fully justified.”

“Furthermore,” he added, “the NBRA deplores the personal and unprofessional comments made by Chris Paul. She belongs.”

Paul was called for a technical foul by Holtkamp during the Clippers’ 105-94 loss in Cleveland. Following a free throw by Cleveland with 10:17 left in the third quarter, the Clippers were attempting to inbound quickly when Holtkamp stepped in. Paul questioned her and was slapped with the technical.

“The tech I got was ridiculous,” Paul said. “That’s terrible. There’s no way that can be a technical. We

When we did that, she said, ‘Uh-uh.’ I said, ‘Why uh-uh?’ and she gave me a technical. That’s ridiculous. If that’s the case, this might not be for her.”

Paul is president of the NBA Players Association, and his questioning a referee’s readiness is a common complaint the league hears about rookie officials. He likely will be fined for public criticism of an official.

The 34-year-old Holtkamp spent six seasons in the NBA Development League, working its cham-

pionship series the last two years. A former player at Division II Drury University, she also officiated nine NBA regular-season games before her promotion to the full-time staff.

Violet Palmer is the league’s other female referee, having worked about 900 regular-season games during a career that’s now in its 18th season.

Holtkamp is not scheduled to officiate Friday.

Paul and the Clippers, who were assessed five technical fouls by Holtkamp’s crew Thursday, visit the Toronto Raptors.

re-emerged herself as a scoring force, Carpenter said.

“I saw glimpses of her coming out of her shell a little bit in the Goddard (on Tuesday) game even though she fouled out. She went to the foul line six or seven times and tonight she got to the foul line 10,” Carpenter said. “So that means she’s being effective not only in the high post but also in the low post. Our post coaches have been working tails off with her lately and so we’re pleased with what’s going on.”

“The second and fourth quarters were encouraging, the first and third, certainly the third, we just did not play very well,” Cooper said. “But the bench did a good job in the second quarter. And we finished out strong. In district they get tough. Everyone knows everyone well. You just got to take care of your business and move on to the next one.”

Amador had a hard game physically, Cooper said.

“Right off the bat Daniel tweaked his ankle, then he gets his nose bloodied later, so it was a rough night for him. Your leading scorer doesn’t even score and you still win by 15 I guess it’s still all right,” Cooper said.

“But we got to get going again offensively. This is not our kind of game, down in the 50s..”

tial rule changes might further improve the flow and competitiveness of college basketball,” said Belmont coach Rick Byrd, chairman of the committee.

Last year, Division I men’s teams averaged 67.5 points per game, the lowest number since the 195152 season. The 35-second clock and a more physical style of play that has evolved over time are among the biggest factors coaches point to when identifying reasons for the decline.

When current Brooklyn Nets coach Lionel Hollins coached the Memphis Grizzlies in 2011, he said he couldn’t even watch his son Austin play for the University of Minnesota because the college game was too boring.

“I watched Wisconsin and Minnesota play down the stretch and I couldn’t take it,” Hollins said then.

“They just hold the ball and hold the ball, and try to get a shot with 10 seconds on the clock.”

Badgers coach Bo Ryan has used the slow-down tactics to great success, including last year’s run to the Final Four and a 20-2 start this year that has Wisconsin ranked No. 5.

Wisconsin ranks 39th in the country at 74.4 points per game this season, but many teams at schools both big and small have employed a more deliberate offensive system over the years to neutralize athletic shortcomings.

“We are headed this year, for many different reasons, to probably the fewest number of possessions in the game that we’ve had in the history of our game,” Gavitt said. “There are a lot of different factors involved in that. Some would argue having a shorter shot clock would add more possessions to the game thus giving the opportunity for more offense. We’ll see.”

Years ago, the NCAA would occasionally test out potential rules changes in tournaments like the preseason NIT or the Maui Invitational. But those events have become high-profile showcases in this day and age, so coaches have generally preferred to experiment in exhibition games that usually feature overmatched opponents from lower divisions.

NFLPA heads to court to get Adrian Peterson back on field MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — The latest attempt by star running back Adrian Peterson to get back on the field will come in a federal courtroom.

Attorneys for the NFL Players Association were scheduled to argue Friday for the Minnesota Vikings standout’s reinstatement from a suspension levied by the league under its divisive personal conduct policy. The punishment, stemming from the child abuse case involving Peterson and one of his young sons, has widened the divide between the NFL and the NFLPA over player discipline.

The effort on behalf of Peterson, who is suspended through at least April 15, is the legal equivalent of fourth-and-really-long.

When Peterson’s appeal was denied Dec. 12 by an arbitrator appointed by the league, the union sued. Its petition to overturn the decision contends that the suspension, guided by Commissioner Roger Goodell’s enhanced punishments for players involved with domestic violence after the Ray Rice case, strayed from the collective bargaining agreement. The NFLPA also argued the decision is unfair and arbitrator Harold Henderson was biased and exceeded his authority.

“Courts are not impotent bystanders to miscarriages of arbitral justice,” the NFLPA’s lawyers wrote last week in reply to the NFL’s request that U.S. District Judge David Doty toss out the case.

Peterson and the union found a potentially friendly courtroom, given Doty’s history of ruling in favor of

January job gains show US recovery gaining greater strength

WASHINGTON (AP) — A resurgent job market in January signaled that the U.S. economy is finally regaining the kind of strength typical of a healthy recovery — with hiring accelerating, wages rising and people who had given up their job hunts starting to look again.

Freer-spending consumers and steady economic expansion have boosted hiring for the past three months to the most robust pace in 17 years.

In January, employers added 257,000 jobs, after 329,000 in December and a sizzling 423,000 jobs in November, the government reported Friday. The November and December gains were much higher than the government had first estimated.

“The labor market was about the last thing to recover from the Great Recession, and in the last six months it has picked up steam,” said Bill Hampel, chief economist at the Credit Union National Association. “The benefits for the middle class are now solidifying.”

The average hourly wage rose 12 cents to $24.75 in January, a jump of 0.5 percent — the sharpest since 2008. In the past year, hourly pay, which has long been stagnant, has risen 2.2 percent. That’s well above inflation, which rose just 0.8 percent in 2014.

The accelerating job and pay growth now make it more likely that the Federal Reserve will begin raising the short-term interest rate it controls by midyear.

Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics, predicts that the Fed will raise rates from record lows in June.

“Employment growth is clearly on fire, and it is beginning to put upward pressure on wage growth,” Ashworth wrote in a research note. “The Fed can’t wait much longer in that environment, particularly not when interest rates are starting at near zero.”

In this Dec. 14, 2011 photo, a line worker assembles a 2012 Ford Focus at the Ford Michigan Assembly plant in Wayne, Mich. The jobs report on Friday signaled that raises have finally begun to flow through an economy in which, once you factor in inflation, most people earn less than when the Great Recession struck in 2007. Ford has announced that up to 500 of its lowest-paid factory workers will receive a 48 percent pay raise to $28.50 an hour. Other major companies, including Aetna and the Gap, have also announced pay increases.

Indeed, investors responded to the better-than-expected figures by selling U.S. Treasurys, sending yields up, a sign that many think a Fed rate hike might be more imminent than they thought before. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note rose to 1.94 percent from 1.81 percent shortly before the jobs report was released.

Stock investors appeared nervous about a Fed rate increase, which could pull down stock prices. The Dow Jones industrial average closed down 60 points, or 0.3 percent, to 17,824.

The unemployment rate rose last month to 5.7 percent from 5.6 percent. But that occurred for a good reason: More than 700,000 Americans — the most in six years — began looking for jobs. Not all of them found work, which swelled the number of unemployed.

The influx of job hunters suggested that Americans have grown more confident about their prospects.

Fueling the burst of hiring has been a pickup in economic growth and falling gas prices that offered

Americans more money to spend. The economy expanded at a 4.8 percent annual rate during spring and summer, the fastest six-month pace in a decade, before slowing to a still-decent 2.6 percent pace in the final three months of 2014.

There are now 3.2 million more Americans earning paychecks than there were 12 months ago. That additional cash tends to boost consumer spending, which drives about 70 percent of economic growth.

Americans are feeling better about the economy. Consumer confidence jumped in January to its highest level in a decade, according to a survey by the University of Michigan.

And consumers increased their spending during the final three months of last year at the fastest pace in nearly nine years.

A more confident, free-spending consumer could lend a spark that had been missing for most of the 5½-year-old recovery. Americans have been largely holding the line on spending and trying to

shrink debt loads. Signs that they’re poised to spend more have boosted optimism that the economy will expand over 3 percent this year for the first time in a decade.

Companies that benefit most directly from consumer spending have ramped up hiring since the fall, when gas price savings began to pile up in Americans’ bank accounts.

Retailers added 45,900 jobs in January, hotels and restaurants 37,100.

Though jobs in those industries typically offer lower wages, companies have boosted pay as they have scrambled to fill openings. Hourly pay has risen 3 percent in the past year for retailers and 3.4 percent for hotel and restaurant employees.

When the year began, 20 states raised their minimum wages, a trend that might have contributed to January’s sharp overall pay gain. Some companies, including Aetna and the Gap, have also announced wage increases for their lowest-paid employees.

Heated rhetoric being tossed out at New Mexico Legislature ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — One lawmaker compared the repeal of a New Mexico immigrant driver’s license law to the Holocaust. A state senator said the appointment of a new child welfare leader was “a slap in the face” to abused children.

Despite initial calls for bipartisanship, the opening days of a divided New Mexico Legislature have been heated. Republican lawmakers have said a state law allowing immigrants in the country illegally to obtain driver’s license is likely helping terrorists and Mexican drug cartels. Democrats say any repeal would be a victory for new Jim Crow-style segregation laws.

Meanwhile, both have traded barbs on how much lobbyists are controlling the statehouse.

During a Legislative hearing last week, Democrats grilled Monique Jacobson, the secretary-designate for the Children, Youth and Families Department, over her lack of experience in child welfare and her decision not to ask for more money. She previously led the state’s tourism department.

“It’s a slap in the face to any

child who’s ever been abused,” Sen. Michael Padilla, D-Albuquerque, said.

Those comments drew swift rebuke from the Republican Party of New Mexico.

“It’s shameful that Democrat Sen. Michael Padilla is more interested in using divisive and insensitive rhetoric than actually addressing and solving the problems that children and families face in New Mexico,” said Chelsea Stallings, a spokeswoman for the Republican Party of New Mexico.

And during a tense committee hearing to repeal the driver’s license law, Rep. Patricia Roybal Caballero, D-Albuquerque, said any repeal and participation in federal Real ID Act was akin to the deportation of Jews to concentration camps under Nazi Germany.

“It reminds me of stories we heard about the Holocaust,” she said.

Caballero later apologized.

Experts say these rhetorical bombs help lawmakers later raise money and are thrown out to speak to their base in an age of constant campaigning.

Richard Pineda, a communications professor at the University of Texas at El Paso, said while the outlandish language in legislative debates may help fire up loyal followers, those comments don’t help with the business of governing.

“It’s playground politics,” Pineda said. “When you are backed into a corner and you have nothing to lose, you start throwing haymakers.”

Pineda said that is especially true for New Mexico House Democrats who find themselves in the minority for the first time in 60 years. Republicans, however, may feel the need to be more aggressive with their comments now that they control the House and the governor’s office, Pineda said.

Republicans control the House while Democrats control the Senate.

Still, such rhetoric will likely turn off voters and hurt in attracting new leaders. “It will be hard to inspire the next generation,” Pineda said. “And it’s probably going to get worse.”

State bills seek late-term abortion ban, parent notice

SANTA FE (AP) — Republican lawmakers in New Mexico are proposing a ban on late-term abortions and a requirement for minors to notify parents within 48 hours before terminating a pregnancy.

The legislation proposed Friday comes less than a month after Roman Catholic bishops urged lawmakers to enact new abortion laws this legislative session with the GOP in control of the House for the first time in decades. Democrats remain in control of the Senate.

Several Democrats also have signed on to support the bills, said Chris Sanchez, a spokesman for the House Republican Caucus. The legislation is expected to be introduced Monday.

The Republicans say the late-term abortion ban is designed to bring New Mexico in line with 42 other states by restricting abortions after five months’ gestation and if the doctor determines the fetus is viable.

Both pieces of legislation include exceptions in cases of rape, incest, sexual abuse and when the woman’s life is in danger.

“This is common-sense legislation that protects the life of the child after five months pregnancy,” said Alamogordo Rep. Yvette Herrell, sponsor of the late-term abortion bill, in a statement.

Under the proposal, a physician performing a late-term abortion would face a civil penalty of at least $5,000. In addition, the doctor’s license could be taken away for at least a year, Sanchez said in a news release. The penalties only apply to the doctor and are the same for both proposals.

Republican Gov. Susana Martinez has repeatedly said “she is pro-life, which would of course include opposition to late-term abortions,” her spokesman Mike Lonergan told The Associated Press. She believes parents should be notified before a minor can have an abortion, he said.

drunk. I did have an accident.” The police chief said he doesn’t drink, adding, “I’m essentially allergic to alcohol.”

“What I can tell you is I was not on duty and not in a department vehicle,” he said. “My wife [town councilor Barbara Chung] and I went to take care of a dog that was in the shelter, it was on the weekend.

Essentially I struck the door of the animal shelter.”

Chung said that if a department vehicle had been involved “of course we would call the county” and said if it had been a fatal accident he would have called State Police.

As it was, he called the mayor.

“We called the mayor right away,” Chung said.

“An accident report was made.”

Chung refused further comment “until all the insurance is done.”

Regional Roundup Senior center plan denied CDBG funding

FORT SUMNER — Plans for the Village of Fort Sumner and De Baca County to work together to build a new senior citizens center was dashed after the state Department of Finance and Administration told officials the project doesn’t fit funding guidelines of the Community Development Block Grant program.

Construction of a new senior center had been the overwhelming favorite project among local citizens who attended recent public hearings with county and village officials. The meetings were to receive input on potential projects to be funded through the CDBG program.

The Fort Sumner Village Council had approved the Senior Center project for its CDBG application at its regular meeting Jan. 12.

The County Commission had been expected to act on the proposal Jan. 27, but the commission was informed that DFA’s local governments had rejected the proposal because the county would not own the facility.

“They won’t allow a joint application,” said Eastern Plains Council of Government executive director Sandy Chancey during the commission’s regular meeting. Chancey said the county could make a separate application for funding for another infrastructure project in the 2016 funding cycle. She also suggested the county seek funding for a comprehensive plan at any time during the current funding cycle.

FBI still investigating former sheriff

ESPANOLA — Former Rio Arriba County Sheriff Tommy Rodella is still under investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation for allegedly extorting money from motorists for his scholarship fund.

The FBI seized $3,275 from a bank account set up to hold the money.

The “donations” Rodella allegedly had motorists “contribute” to occurred between December 2012 and April 2013, according to federal court documents.

The FBI searched Rodella’s office in April 2013.

A motorist, Dave Jaramillo, said he was arrested Dec. 23, 2012. He first brought the complaints to the attention of the New Mexico Attorney General’s Office on May 7, 2013. The AG forwarded the complaint, and what little findings they had, to the FBI,

The appeal, filed with the county Jan. 23, takes aim at zoning issues and argues the project lacks “sensitivity and consistency in both use and visual impact” to the existing area.

No ruling has yet been made in that case.

Auditors issue an ‘unmodified’ opinion

ESPANOLA — Independent auditors from the Accounting and Consulting Group LLP have concluded the financial statements Rio Arriba County officials submitted for review reasonably depicted the county’s “financial position” through the unmodified opinion it submitted to the state’s auditor’s office.

An unmodified opinion is considered the best opinion an external auditor can give. It means that the auditor didn’t run into any obstacles while reviewing the records and the auditor believed the financial statements submitted accurately reflected the entity’s financial dealings.

Auditors issued two findings, which is a significant drop from the six uncovered in 2013, but one more than the finding uncovered as a result of the 2012 audit.

Behavioral services provider cuts coming

TAOS — Cuts appear imminent at the Taos area’s largest provider of behavioral health services as it teeters on the edge of financial collapse and a new assessment raises questions about the ability of the nonprofit’s current leadership to turn around the struggling organization.

Tri-County Community Services had 8½ days worth of cash on hand as of Jan. 20, according to an assessment completed by the private consulting firm Parker Dennison.

The assessment also found the organization has been in financial trouble for the

last decade and now owes the IRS nearly $500,000.

But the report suggested money alone will not save the organization.

Tri-County, which served 2,770 clients at its Taos office during the second half of 2014, has insufficient financial and management resources and capabilities, the assessment said.

Airport expansion opponents appeal permit

TAOS — Eight Taos County residents are appealing the approval of a permit for the Taos Regional Airport expansion.

The town of Taos owns the airport and is planning the construction of a second runway with funding from the federal government. After nearly three decades of studies and debate, the town appears poised to break ground on the $24 million project.

The appeal means the permit will likely go before the county planning and zoning commission for consideration. The county land use regulations specify that a hearing must be set within 45 days of the appeal date.

Another appeal by either party would then go to the county commissioners.

It’s not clear at this point whether the appeal will delay work on the ground, though county officials have indicated the town is free to start construction while the appeal works its way through the administrative process.

Supporters of the new runway argue it will improve safety at the airport and put Taos in a better position for economic development. Detractors have raised a slew of concerns, including increased pollution, effects to property values and worsening the divide between the county’s rich and poor.

SANTA ROSA — Two weeks since cutbacks took effect at Santa Rosa’s only licensed day care facility, the director says there’s little hope of restoring fiveday-a-week service through at least the end of the current school year.

Due to a severe staffing shortage, Tomorrow’s Hope Day Care announced in December that it was being forced to cut back to two days a week, Tuesdays and Thursdays, starting in mid-January. Only able to pay salaries just above minimum wage, the center has had difficulty recruiting and retaining workers, who must undergo background checks and extensive training before they can be left alone with children.

The scheduling cuts forced dozens of parents to seek other options, either through friends, family members or private babysitters. Some fear ramifications for the community’s already fragile economy if a lack of day care options becomes another factor contributing to an overall labor shortage.

Day care director Wanda Harrison said she would like to see service restored to five days per week, but with two more departures from the staff this month, the facility needs more workers just to maintain service at two days per week.

Chief drives into animal control building

EDGEWOOD — Mountainair’s police chief ran his car through the wall of the town’s animal control shelter recently.

“Nobody was hurt,” said town clerk Suzan Brazil, who added that there had been one animal in the shelter at the time “but it was fine, and we adopted it out the next day.”

No people were in the building at the time, she said.

A source who would not give a name because of fear of retaliation, said Police Chief Robert Chung had been drinking before the accident.

Asked whether this was true, Chung replied, “No, that’s not true. I was not

New CYFD head faces Senate committee

SANTA FE — New Mexico lawmakers want the new head of the state’s child welfare agency to ensure federal dollars for services are used by the state rather than returned.

Members of a Senate panel challenged Monique Jacobson, the incoming secretary of the Children, Youth and Families Department, during a meeting Jan. 27. Jacobson 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.

Jacobson, the former tourism director, says she’s excited to tackle the challenges ahead in CYFD and promised to account for every dollar. Lawmakers expressed support and asked her to act with urgency.

CYFD has been hampered in recent years by staffing shortages, an overwhelming caseload and a series of high-profile abuse cases that have drawn criticism.

Lawmaker out for husband’s sentencing

SANTA FE — A lawmaker from Española who skipped the opening days of the legislative session to attend her husband’s sentencing hearing has been sworn in.

House Democrats say state Rep. Debbie Rodella of Española took the oath of office after missing a week. Her husband, former Rio Arriba County Sheriff Tommy Rodella, was sentenced last week to 10 years in prison for abusing a driver in a bizarre, off-duty traffic stop.

Speaker urges punctuality, planning ahead

SANTA FE — The new leader of the New Mexico House of Representatives wants committees under his watch to be punctual.

House Speaker Don Tripp sent a letter to new committee chairs, asking that they meet on time.

He says doing so would encourage New Mexicans to get involved in their government.

Committee meetings are where lawmakers vet bills, take testimony from proponents and opponents and decide whether the measures should advance. In the past, committees often ran hours behind schedule, leaving constituents waiting to testify. In some cases, the hearing of a bill could be put off for a day or more.

Tripp says committees that operate efficiently and effectively will better serve the people.

He also asked for committee leaders to plan their agendas as far in advance as possible to allow for adequate public notice.

Dear Abby

Universal Press Syndicate DEAR ABBY: I am 18, and like most of my friends, I have gone away to college. We have a friend whose life went off track during our senior year because of drinking, drugs and other misbehavior. She's now without a place to live or any support system.

She calls us from time to time, and we aren't sure what to believe or how to help her since we are all in a different place in our lives, and far away. We won't give her money because we are worried about what she might do with it, but

we really do want to help her and be there for her. What is the best approach?

WORRIED FRIEND IN FLORIDA DEAR WORRIED: I agree that you should not give her money. The best approach would be for you to advise your friend to get into a shelter with social services for homeless women. If she does, she may be able to get into a substance abuse program, receive government benefits and straighten out her life. I'm not saying her road will be an easy one, but it can be done.

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: Is there a polite way to ask a colleague to stop bringing her kids to work? Our offices are next to each other, and the dividing wall doesn't reach the ceiling. I have to hear them yelling at each other (they are 2 and 4), crying, whining and their mother's attempts at dis-

Comics cipline, etc. This isn't occasional -- it happens often.

Should I ask her politely to stop bringing them to work? Or should I ask management to shift my office away from hers?

DISTRACTED IN DETROIT DEAR DISTRACTED: Rather than risk a confrontation with your co-worker, this is something you should discuss either with your supervisor or your employer. While I empathize with the woman's difficulty in finding someone to supervise her youngsters, if their presence in the workplace is disruptive, your needs should be accommodated.

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: I have a family friend whose son has been engaged twice, to two different women.

The first engagement was broken off by him, and the second by his fiancee.

Each time, his family threw him an engagement party

Saturday, February 7, 2015

(which he wanted) -- and I was invited to both. Each time, as is customary, I bought a gift for the happy couple. Neither one was returned after the engagement was broken.

The first party was a pleasure to attend. The second one I found slightly awkward, but I wanted to be supportive of my friend. I brought a gift the second time because I didn't want to be impolite.

If my friend's son becomes engaged a third time and has an engagement party to which I am invited, am I obligated to bring a gift?

POLITE PARTY GUEST DEAR POLITE: No. I think by now you have given enough. And considering how your friend's son's luck has been after these engagement parties, I can't imagine his family inviting the same people a third time and expecting them to give him anything more than their good wishes.

Hints

King Features Syndicate Dear Readers: One of my favorite cleaning helpers that has a multitude of uses is the MICROFIBER CLOTH! These special cloths have hooklike fibers to grab up dirt and grease, not just move them around.

What makes them fabulous is you don't need toxic chemicals to clean regular household surfaces.

Some manufacturers recommend using only water when using a microfiber cloth.

The microfiber does not scratch, which is why it's the best for cleaning eyeglasses, camera lenses and computer and cellphone screens.

How to clean microfiber cloths? Easy. If the cloth is really dirty, give it a quick rinse with tap water. If your washing machine has a soak cycle, use this to get rid of as much dirt as possible first. Be sure to use the correct amount of laundry detergent; don't overuse your laundry detergent. DON'T use liquid fabric softener or dryer sheets, which will cause the cloth to be less absorbent. Wash microfiber alone or only with other items that don't shed lint. Some folks "air-dry" them, and others put them in the dryer. I'm part of the second group.

Next time you are shopping at a mega-retailer or grocery store, look for them in the cleaning aisle and the automotive section.

I swear, these cloths will last a long, long time if cared for correctly. They are cheap when you take into consideration that you will be using fewer commercial cleaning products.

Heloise HHHHH Dear Readers: Dani in San Antonio shared a picture of her adorable Christmas present, Cooper. He is a Cavapoo (a Cavalier King Charles spaniel mixed with a poodle) with a red bow on his head! If you would like to see Cooper and our other Pet Pals, visit www.Heloise.com and click on "Pets."

Heloise HHHHH Dear Heloise: I freeze bacon fat and put it out for the birds in the winter when the weather is severe. All sorts of birds show up. I freeze the fat in a dish, then remove it and put it in a bag of winter bird food.

Dear Heloise: Rather than throw out used oil or fat drippings, mix them with cornmeal (from the farm store). This makes excellent bird food that will attract both seed eaters and meat eaters to your feeder. No more grease in the garbage or down the drainpipe.

Chuck, via email To keep unwelcome pesky critters at bay, leave only what the birds will eat in one or two days.

Heloise HHHHH Dear Heloise: During the holiday rush, I, like a lot of people, spent too much. I'm back on my budget, but I do have some credit-card debt to deal with. I called my credit-card company to see about working out a payment plan. It agreed, and now I can work on paying off these bills as soon as I can.

NBC launches internal probe on Williams’ Iraq claims NEW YORK (AP) — NBC News has assigned the head of its investigative unit to look into statements anchor Brian Williams made about his reporting in Iraq a dozen years ago, an episode that’s ballooned into a full-blown credibility crisis for the network.

NBC News President Tur ness Deborah announced the probe in an internal memo on Friday.

Williams has apologized for falsely saying on the air that he was in a helicopter hit by a rocket-propelled grenade in Iraq in 2003, and Turness said Friday he expressed his regrets to his

colleagues for the impact the episode has had.

“As you would expect, we have a team dedicated to gathering the facts to help us make sense of all that has transpired,” Turness wrote. “We’re working on what the best next steps are.”

Richard Esposito, who has worked at the Daily News, Newsday and ABC and is now at NBC, is leading the investigation.

Williams, who has been widely chastised, anchored “Nightly News” from New York on Friday, making no mention of the criticisms of his work.

Questions also were raised about statements Williams made on coverage of Hurricane Katrina, which was one of his proudest moments at NBC. In a 2006 interview with former Disney CEO Michael Eisner, Williams twice referenced seeing a body float down a street in New Orleans.

“When you look out of your hotel room window in the French Quarter and watch a man float by face down, when you see bodies that you last saw in Banda Aceh, Indonesia, and swore to yourself that you would never see in your country,”

Williams said.

Several minutes later, Williams again talked about seeing the body as he discussed how it felt to cover the storm.

“I felt something get dislodged that changes the usual arm’s length relationship between me and the stories I cover,” he said.

“These are Americans.

These are my brothers and sisters. And one of them was floating by.”

The remarks drew suspicion because during Katrina there was relatively little flooding in New Orleans’ French Quarter.

Williams was staying at

the Ritz-Carlton hotel in New Orleans, according to an NBC source who was not authorized to speak on personnel matters and requested anonymity.

Police Capt. James Scott, who was a commander in the downtown area, said he saw a body floating along the edge of the French Quarter on a street about four blocks from the RitzCarlton, which was surrounded by up to 3 feet of water.

Alex Brandon, a Washington-based photographer for The Associated Press, said there was enough water to launch a flat-bot-

tomed boat from in front of the Ritz. He said he photographed a dead body floating on another street a few blocks from the Ritz.

The story originally called into question about Williams’ wartime reporting experience has made him a subject of mockery, including a New York Post front cover that depicted him with a long Pinocchio’s nose, over the headline “A Nose for News.”

He’s the leading man at the network’s news division, whose nightly newscast has topped its rivals in ratings for the better part of a decade.
