before the midnight deadline required by law.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Gridlocked once more, President Barack Obama and Republican congressional leaders refused to budge in their budget standoff Friday as $85 billion in across-the-board spending cuts bore down on individual Americans and the nation’s still-recovering economy. “None of this is necessary,” said the president after a sterile White House meeting that portended a long standoff.

The president met with top lawmakers for less than an hour at the White House, then sought repeatedly to fix the blame on Republicans for the broad spending reductions and any damage that they inflict. “They’ve allowed these cuts to happen because they refuse to budge on closing a single wasteful loophole to help reduce the deficit,” he said, renewing his demand for a comprehensive deficit-cut-

Obama formally enacted the reductions a few hours

ting deal that includes higher taxes.

Republicans said they wanted deficit cuts, too, but not tax increases. “The president got his tax hikes on Jan. 1,” House Speaker Boehner told John reporters, a reference to a $600 billion increase on higher wage earners that cleared Congress on the first day of the year. Now, he said after the meeting, it is time take on “the spending problem here in Wash-

HAGERMAN BOYS TAKE CROWN

HAGERMAN — While coaches’ pre game speeches are glorified, they often times don’t have the impact the media or movies would have you believe.

That wasn’t the case for the Hagerman boys basketball team on Friday, however.

Bobcat coach Anthony Mestas got his team fired up with a “Protect this house” speech and it worked as Hagerman led wire-to-wire in a 66-41 win over Capitan in the District 7-1A championship game.

Harry Tackett, director of federal programs for the RISD, reads The Cat in the Hat to kindergartners at Missouri Avenue Elementary, Friday morning.

From there to here, from here to there, Dr. Seuss was everywhere!

Kindergarteners in the Roswell Independent School District celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday Friday with a hat full of activities arranged to capture the excitement of reading. The annual Read Across America program kicked off at Pecos Elementary School with Mayor Del Jur ney reading Green Eggs and Ham, followed by a colorful breakfast of green eggs and ham.

Jur ney lauded Dr. Seuss’ ability to captivate readers of all ages. He recalled how he enjoyed reading Dr. Seuss books to his son and said those same books will be “waiting at home for the grandkids.”

“Dr. Seuss has made such an impact on youth, through the rhyming, the creativity, the humor and just the craziness that goes along with it,” he said. “I think it inspires them to want to lear n more, read more — it creates in their minds the ability to put all those ideas together that Dr. Seuss so cleverly brings out.”

Diana Carrasco, bilingual kindergarten teacher at Pecos, said the school geared its whole day to the Seuss celebration, from reading comprehension to adding and subtracting

Cops bust Duran after long chase Valley Meat: Feds may allow horse slaughter JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The Roswell Police Department and Chaves County Sheriff’s Office arrested Sammy Duran, 18, Thursday, after a pursuit that started on Lea Avenue and McGaf fey Street and took officials along Wildy, South Main, Southeast Main, Poe, Hobbs and Church streets. The chase ended after Duran attempted to ram a Sherif f’s vehicle

twice, and tried to run down a police officer who had exited his unit. The vehicle eventually crashed in an alley east of North Elm Avenue near Buena Vista Street.

According to the criminal complaint, an RPD officer observed the grey Impala run at a stop sign at Lea and McGaffey. The of ficer tried to make a traffic stop, but the vehicle sped up. In his stateSee COPS, Page A2

The attorney for Valley Meat Co. said Friday that the local slaughterhouse may soon be able to start processing horse meat, as government officials have indicated it may receive a grant of inspection.

For more than a year, Valley Meat Co. has had an application pending with the U.S. Department of Agriculture Food Safety

and Inspection Service to begin slaughtering horses for human consumption.

In October, owner Rick De Los Santos filed a lawsuit against the USDA, alleging it failed to comply with federal laws and provide equine inspection services at the facility. A. Blair Dunn, attorney for Valley Meat Co., said the USDA originally had 60 days to respond to the lawsuit, but

Dolores Villa knows a win-win situation when she sees one. As director of the Foster Grandparent and Senior Companion programs at the Chaves County J.O.Y. Center, Villa employs senior volunteers who provide the kind of care that is always positive, always mutual: friendship.

Villa has spent 23 years as a program director, a position where learning of a volunteer who made a lasting, positive impact in another individual’s life is an everyday occurrence. Villa has 13 volunteers in the grandparents

program who work with children with special needs at Roswell Headstart and public schools. The volunteers are assigned three children who need help with basic skills like reading, comprehension and writing. The volunteers serve as mentors, tutors and friends — an experience Villa said rewards all parties.

Chaves, 22 more Rules opens hearing qualify for aid ILISSA GILMORE RECORD STAFF WRITER

Due to damages and losses caused by the state’s ongoing drought, the U.S. Department of Agriculture designated several counties in New Mexico as natural disaster areas, Wednesday.

The 12 primary counties are Bernalillo, Grant, Luna, Sierra, Catron, Hidalgo, Otero, Socorro, Doña Ana, Lincoln, Sandoval and Valencia.

Other counties that also qualify for natural disaster assistance include Chaves, Eddy, McKinley, Santa Fe, Cibola, Guadalupe, Rio Arriba, Torrance, De Baca, Los Alamos and San Juan.

Farmers and ranchers of qualifying counties may be able to receive low-interest emergency loans from USDA’s Farm Service Agency so long as they meet eligibility requirements.

Oscar Rivera, FSA district director for eastern New Mexico, said the emergency loans open the door to recovery for

any producer who has suffered production losses, either financially or otherwise. For example, he said the money could be used to purchase feed for livestock or to refinance property.

He said farmers heavily affected by drought, such as those in the Carlsbad Irrigation District, could be eligible for these loans.

The loans are based on collateral, Rivera said, and can have an interest rate of 2.25 percent.

Farmers have eight months from the date of the declaration to apply for loans. The USDA says it will consider the extent of losses, available security and the applicant’s repayment ability. Rivera said the agency also has other loan programs available.

The local USDA Service Center, 1011 S. Atkinson Ave., serves Chaves, Eddy, Lea, Lincoln and Otero counties. For more information on eligibility requirements and how to apply, call the office at 622-8746.

NM religious leaders to hold immigration rally

LAS CRUCES (AP) — Religious leaders from different faiths are scheduled to hold a rally in support of federal immigration reform.

The coalition of faith leaders were slated to meet Friday at the First Christian Church in Las Cruces and call on federal lawmakers to draft “compassionate” comprehensive immigration reform.

In addition, Sarah Nolan, executive director of CAFe Comunidades en Accion y de Fe, says the coalition is launching its “Campaign for Citizenship” aimed at advocating that the country’s estimated 11 million illegal immigrants be given a pathway to U.S. citizenship.

The rally comes a Rev. Oscar Cantu was installed Thursday as bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Las Cruces.

SANTA FE (AP) — Opponents of Republican Gov. Susana Martinez’s nominee as public education secretary told lawmakers Friday that Hanna Skandera does not meet the constitutional requirements for the job she’s held since 2011, but business and tribal leaders called for her confirmation by the Senate.

On the opening day of a confirmation hearing by the Senate Rules Committee, Skandera drew sharply mixed reviews as the advocate for educational policy changes opposed by many Democrats. The governor has proposed requiring schools to hold back thirdgraders who can’t read proficiently but the measure has stalled in the Democratic-controlled Legislature.

The committee plans to continue on Saturday and its job is to decide whether to forward Skandera’s nomination for a vote by the Senate, where Democrats hold a 25-17 majority.

It’s rare for lawmakers to tur n down a gover nor’s appointee for a high-level job. The Senate last rejected a department Cabinet secretary in 1997, when GOP Gov. Gary Johnson was in office.

Educational union officials and other opponents said Skandera didn’t meet a constitutional requirement for the department secretary to be a “qualified, experienced educator.”

Skandera has never worked as a teacher or administrator in a public elementary or secondary school. She was a senior policy adviser to U.S. Education Secretary Margaret Spellings during President George W. Bush’s administration. She also was a deputy commissioner of education in the Florida Department of Education in 2005-2007 when Jeb Bush was governor.

“We need a department secretary who has spent time in the classroom, who truly has experienced the classroom,” said Peggy Stielow, president of Rio Rancho School Employees Union.

But business leaders

said Skandera is doing a good job of trying to change an educational system struggling with low graduation rates and poor student per for mance on tests assessing reading and math proficiency.

“Regardless of whether the governor is Democrat or Republican, we think they should have the choice that they want in this critical spot in their Cabinet,” said Terri Cole, president and CEO of the Greater Albuquerque Chamber of Commerce.

She said the constitution doesn’t require a public school teacher serve as the top administrator of the Public Education Department, which was placed under the control of the gover nor in 2003 with a Cabinet-level secretary.

Previously, the state superintendent of schools was selected by the now defunct state Board of Education.

If the Senate rejects Skandera’s nomination, she’s fired from her post immediately. However, Martinez could name her to another administration job.

Several Native American leaders praised Skandera for visiting tribal communities to learn about the educational problems facing Indian students. A tribal official read a letter of support from Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly.

Laguna Pueblo Gov. Richard Luarkie urged lawmakers to set aside their political differences and confirm Skandera.

“Whether we realize it or not we’re all educating our kids today,” he said. “We’re teaching them maybe how not to work together. We need to show them how to work together, even if we don’t agree.”

After the hearing, Skandera said, “There is obviously a difference between a teacher and an educator.

I believe I am well qualified for the job and I think that was established today.”

When Johnson was governor in 1995-2002, the Senate rejected two of his Cabinet secretaries and he withdrew the nomination of another cabinet nominee in the face of certain rejection.

House OKs $174 million in capital improvements SANTA FE (AP) — A proposal to finance nearly $174 million in capital improvements is heading to the Senate and supporters say it will create jobs across New Mexico.

The measure cleared the House on a 58-10 vote Thursday and goes to the Senate.

Most of the financing comes from bonds backed by tax money from oil and natural gas production.

ment, the officer said the vehicle was swerving wildly and the driver kept hitting his brakes every time the police unit drew close. When the two vehicles arrived in the area near Roswell High School, the officer was told to cancel the pursuit.

The documents state that a Sheriff’s deputy heard about the pursuit on the radio. He said he was driving to South Main along Poe Street, when Duran changed direction and ran a stop sign. The deputy was forced to pull over to avoid collision.

After the near collision was reported, the RPD received permission to pick up the pursuit.

Three officers and a second deputy went to the assistance of the first deputy, who had positioned his vehicle near Hobbs and Main streets where, the deputy said, the driver of the vehicle veered attempting to hit him.

The police statements indicate that Duan led two police units around the area known as the triangle, where Main splits to Southeast and South Main, down to Poe, several times. A third officer positioned his vehicle on Church Street east of Grand Avenue and took his

A second deputy joined the pursuit. He said in his statement that he saw sparks fly as the Impala bottomed out.

Duran slammed his brakes and swerved in an attempt to lose his pursuers. It crashed at the south end of an alley on Elm Avenue. A fourth officer arrived.

The driver and four passengers left the vehicle. During his statement, the second deputy reported that Duran threw something away from him. The criminal complaint states the deputy had to “... fight Sammy to ground. ...”

Two officers conducted a search of the suspect and located six baggies with 2.1 grams of methamphetamines.

Duran currently faces two counts of aggravated assault on a peace officer, fleeing a law enforcement officer, trafficking methamphetamine, two counts of resisting, evading, or obstructing an officer, concealing identity. He is being held at Chaves County Detention Center with a $50,000 cash-or-surety bond.

“Reading is very important, especially in kindergarten,” she said.

“Right now the standards that we’re trying to meet are so high, and kindergarten is so important to start them with their phonics foundation so they’re able to master that once they enter first grade.”

Carrasco said the rhyming in Dr. Seuss books is one of the best ways to teach children how to read. “Reading is a book played in their minds. It can take you many places. It’s about their imagination while they’re reading that book or listening to that story.

“So we stress rhyming a lot in kindergarten — they need to know what rhyming words are, and it helps them to spell.”

At Missouri Avenue Elementary, kindergartners in Kristi Alford’s class enjoyed several Dr. Seuss classics throughout the day, including a reading of The Cat in the Hat from RISD’s Director of Federal Programs Harry Tackett.

the Department of Justice recently asked for additional time.

He said the company accepted because it was indicated the USDA would be willing to give a grant of inspection within 45 to 60 days. The move was “pretty unexpected,” he said.

“It came out of left field that the U.S. government was willing to move forward,” Dunn said. “But there’ s no such thing as a sure guarantee.”

The slaughterhouse has been ready to begin processing since last May, he said, and of ficials had already completed a walkthrough of the facility and found it to be up to code.

“Everything is good to go,” he said. “It’s just a matter of them reviewing their policies and issuing a grant of inspection.”

A grant of inspection would give the facility official inspectors to inspect animals before and after processing.

“It’s the same way of saying, ‘We’re giving you a license to operate,’” Dunn said. “‘You’re open for business and your product can be sold.’”

If permitted, he said the facility would be able to begin work immediately.

“I’m hopeful that we won’t have to deal with the threat of a government shutdown while we’re dealing with the sequester at the same time,” he said, referring to the new cuts by their Washington-speak name.

Obama said he, too, wanted to keep the two issues separate.

Under the law, Obama had until midnight to formally order the cuts. Barring a quick deal in the next week or so to call them off, the impact evenunderstated. She said the fact so many people still love Dr. Seuss years after childhood proves that. “It’s just so much fun. I read Green Eggs and Ham this morning and they had a blast.

“Some of these books are mine from when I was a kid. I’ll pick them up at garage sales, Sam’s and Walmart. My husband thinks I have an addiction!”

Alford, too, stressed the importance of rhyming in her curriculum. “Something we’ve been trying to get across all year — and some get it and some don’t — is rhyming words. Well, guess what? One of them just got it today when I read that book.”

Tackett said Dr. Seuss books have been a part of his family collection for about 30 years. He said The Cat in the Hat has always been his favorite.

“This gives the students an idea to see that you never get tired of reading,” Tackett said.

“Reading can be fun — it’s enjoyable, and I think when they see some of us adults come out and read to them and take that time, it emphasizes the importance of reading to them.” nvernau@rdrnews.com

News of De Los Santos’ application made national and international headlines and sparked public outcry last year, with Gov. Susana Martinez asking the USDA to deny it. De Los Santos has said the company still receives calls from protesters.

Valley understands that horsemeat is a sensitive issue, Dunn said, and has experts to train workers to ensure humane handling of horses.

“Ultimately, Valley Meat not only wants to do it right, but it wants to be the best at what they do,” he said.

The company does not plan to sell within the U.S., exporting instead to countries where there is a market for horsemeat, such as those in Europe, Japan and China.

“We’re very blessed as a nation that we can be picky about our protein options,” Dunn said. “But Americans do prefer beef.”

It’s not that their parents don’t care, but lots of times, it’s a singleparent home and that parent probably has to hold down three jobs.”

The significance of a relationship between a child and a wise elder is timeless and can be seen years after a Foster Grandparent relationship was built, Villa said. “No matter what grade these kids might be in, I hear from Foster Grandparents who see them at Walmart or the grocery store, and they’ll say, ‘Oh, Grandma, do you remember me?’

Obama called the cuts “dumb,” and GOP lawmakers have long said they were his idea in the first place.

Of particular concern to lawmakers in both parties

grandparents any longer, or their grandparents live in another state. So they call these volunteers ‘Grandma Shirley’ or ‘Grandpa,’ and they seek that bond.”

Volunteers in the Senior Companions program give respite for caregivers and provide companionship for seniors in the J.O.Y. Center’s Adult Day Care program, which is for seniors in the beginning stages of dementia or Alzheimer’s.

Villa said when her mother Frances suffered a stroke four years ago, she gained a new perspective of how important the J.O.Y. Center is to families affected by illness.

Frances had worked at the J.O.Y. Center as a client service agent and as a receptionist before suffering her stroke, and eventually returned to the J.O.Y. Center as a client.

“If it weren’t for Adult Day Care or Senior Companions, I wouldn’t be able to continue working,” Villa said. “It’s a blessing to have this so we can continue without disrupting her world and having to place her in a home. I know there are a lot of other families that probably do the same thing.”

Volunteers work with her mother daily, Villa said, and demonstrate the kind of dedication, patience and compassion it takes to be a Senior Companion.

“Whether it’s through the Foster Grandparent or Senior Companion programs, it takes love and understanding and lots of caring.

“I have the best volunteers in the state of New Mexico. They go out and give 200 percent of themselves and they really care about who they’re working with. They do it out of love. It takes a very special person to do it.”

Villa recalled how one of her volunteers always went above and beyond for her companion. “It did not matter to this person how much snow we received or if we were on a two-hour delay or we were closed,” Villa said of the volunteer.

“She would go visit her client and make sure they made it through the night and had something to eat that day.

“I would say, you can call (the client) on the phone and please don’t put yourself in danger, but she’d say, ‘No, I have to see him for myself, I have

to make sure he ate a little something for lunch.’ That is true dedication.”

Villa said seeing her mother work at the J.O.Y. Center for so many years was an inspiration. As a client service agent, Frances took seniors to appointments and delivered meals to their homes.

Villa first volunteered at the J.O.Y. Center in the late 1980s, became site manager in 1989, then program director in 1991 and never looked back.

She describes herself as a workaholic whose only hobby outside of working with seniors is spending time with her family, which includes her husband Raul, her son Alex and her grandson Jeremy.

“I like working with seniors,” she said. “I like making their lives a little better.

“You see a lot of seniors who have to make the decision of whether to buy their medicine, buy food or pay a bill, and I want to be there for them to make it easier so they don’t have to do without.

Slight growth expected for state in 2013, maybe

Not much happening for a while. That’s the outlook for the New Mexico economy from the annual economic outlook conference presented last week by New Mexico State University and Wells Fargo Bank.

Eugenio Aleman, Wells Fargo senior economist, of fered the national outlook, beginning with a tautology. “We’re closer to a recovery today than we were yesterday,” he said. Aleman sees gross domestic product growth at 1.7 percent this year, about in the middle of projections from other groups.

Not so much for New Mexico.

Jim Peach, NMSU regents professor of economics, estimates the state’s 2013 job growth at between zero and 1 percent. That is, if the federal sequestration problem — the across the board spending cuts — gets fixed. Then the number of wage jobs in the state might — just might —

return to pre-recession levels by 2018.

At the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia, Peach found support for his view. The bank tracks the business cycle in each state and also groups statistics with behavior, suggesting state economic performance six months in the future. For New Mexico these leading indictors show no improvement in the economy and perhaps a decline. Since dropping in 2008, the state’s business cycle has flat lined.

In a way, the outlook is very old news. New Mexican’s per

capita income has floated around 80 percent of the national per capita income for decades, Peach said. He didn’t get into problems of counting incomes here, such as people officially not working (the technical term is “labor force participation”) or working for cash or working in family-owned small businesses but not getting paid separately.

The broader point is that while New Mexicans have tagged along with national growth and enjoyed the associated improvement in quality of life, any improvement relative to the nation simply has not happened.

Historians talk about the state’s poverty and isolation back to Spanish days. In today’s world of instant communication, our situation is about the same. Nor is change anticipated. Of the four big general issues Peach listed, one is the absence of a growth

plan or strategy. Whether anything real would come from a plan or strategy is another matter. But lacking a strategy places the state in the position of someone who fails to ask a question; if there is no question, there is no answer.

The other three general issues are the national economy, oil and gas and federal spending.

While federal employment here is “only” 16 percent of overall government employment, which in turn provides 24 percent of all wage jobs, the impact is more.

The federal job numbers exclude military personnel. National laboratory employees are counted in the private sector. Over all, Peach said, 36 percent of our gross domestic product is attributable to the federal government.

The federal situation will also hit state and local governments through the changes, whatever they are, in all those federal

grants that pay for stuff deemed “essential” by someone, such as a county manager or city council member.

As a modest example of federal spending in New Mexico, the feds support research at NMSU to the tune of $150 million annually, Peach said.

Operations at the state’s four large military installations employ about 6,000 civilians, though not all work for the Department of Defense. Furloughs — the government word for layoffs — are coming.

We heard the gloomy news in Las Cruces, 41 miles north of a place where, “It’s really happening.” That place is Santa Teresa, which appears to have joined Eddy and Lea counties as a massive exception to the economic ickiness of the rest of the state.

Gas price success, and failure

It’s that time of year again when drivers notice a spike in gas prices and a corresponding hole in their wallets. But while fuel costs begin their predictable late winter rise as refineries shut down to switch production to summer fuel blends, motorists should know that government policy has made the situation a lot better. And a lot worse.

The high price of a gallon of gas this year has continued a two-year trend of record U.S. fuel prices as the international cost of crude oil has hovered around $110 a gallon.

But the 16-cent jump in prices over the past week is more than just a roller-coaster ride on world commodity markets.

Twenty percent of that jump, say oil industry experts, comes from the seasonal shift to cleaner federally mandated fuels, formulated to release less ozone-producing chemicals into the warming air.

Thanks to farsighted state legislative action a decade ago, however, that price is much less than it might be.

At a time when global oil demand is rising and the U.S. economy is struggling to gain steam, Washington has been throttling the American energy sector rather than giving it a green light to grow oil production.

High on America’s priority list should be approval of the Keystone Pipeline, which would unleash a flood of Canadian oil to the world market.

“Improving U.S. policy on pipeline infrastructure would bring cheaper oil and would displace Venezuelan and Mexican oil imports,” says John Kerekes, regional director of the American Petroleum Institute.

“Twenty-five percent of Keystone would also be dedicated to U.S. crude, opening up markets for South Dakota’s Bakken oil fields, for example.”

The Obama administration’s delay in approving Keystone, says Kerekes, is part of an anti-oil mindset in D.C. that has also restricted exploration in Alaska’s ANWAR fields and threatens the fracking revolution across the northern U.S. Cumulatively, this policy not only suppresses employment opportunities but also gooses international crude prices.

Meanwhile, a gallon of gas has pushed up 58 cents in the past month. “It’s really quite a disturbing piece of data,” petroleum analyst Gregg Laskoski says.

More disturbing is that the White House is part of the problem by not working with industry toward common-sense solutions.

Today is Saturday, March 2, the 61st day of 2013. There are 304 days left in the year.

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’m expecting my first baby. Can you tell me how to care for the umbilical cord stump? How long will it remain?

DEAR READER: Why does every baby have an umbilical cord in the first place? Just as with every cell in your body, every cell in your baby’s body requires a constant supply of energy and sustenance, and disposes of its waste material, through the circulation of the blood. However, during the time your baby is a fetus in the womb, your baby isn’t eating or breathing. The energy comes from the food you eat and the oxygen in the air you breathe.

The circulation of blood in and out of the fetus comes through the umbilical cord.

ASK DR. K UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

One end of the cord enters the baby through its “belly button”; the other end is in the placenta — tissue inside your womb.

When your baby is born, the placenta and umbilical cord will leave your body with the baby.

Once your baby is born, he or she no longer needs the umbilical cord and will be eating and breathing on his or her

own. So, soon after birth, a doctor or nurse will clamp your baby’s umbilical cord, then cut it, leaving a small umbilical stump.

The umbilical stump usually falls off within two weeks or so after birth. Here are the best ways for you to help the natural healing of the cord: — Keep the area clean and dry.

— Avoid wetting the area when you bathe your baby.

Give sponge baths rather than tub baths until the cord has totally separated and fallen off.

If the area gets wet, dry it gently.

— Do not cover the umbilical cord area with a diaper. If the diaper rubs against it, irritation and inflammation may

develop. Fold back the top edge of the diaper to expose the cord.

— If urine or stool gets on the stump, carefully clean the area with mild soap and water.

Then dry the area thoroughly.

— If instructed by your doctor, clean the area around the cord with a cotton-tipped swab or piece of gauze dipped in rubbing alcohol. Some doctors no longer recommend this practice because alcohol does not necessarily prevent infection or speed up healing.

— The stump may bleed a little just before it falls off. This is normal.

— Let the cord fall of f by itself. Do not try to pull or twist See DR. K, Page A5

25 YEARS AGO

March 2, 1988 Members of the Women of St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Roswell have donated $500 to the Roswell Family YMCA to help with their current fund-raising efforts, according to Charmaine Martin, treasurer of the group.

“We very much wanted to help the YMCA in their current efforts to survive the rough times they are going through, and we challenge other groups to match or beat our donation to the YMCA,” Martin said.

The women also voted at the recent meeting to make donations to the Assurance Home, Community Kitchen, Storehouse Ministries, the Lend-AHand program, the Refuge and the RSVP Van. Anita Pitts is the president of the group.

There is a lot to be said in a name. Some names state a reputation, good or bad. Some names represent wealth, royalty, and power; and other names do not mean anything special except to the one who bears it. All men carry the family name and there is a pride that comes with bearing the family name. We are reminded today from our passage that there is great power and refuge in the name of the Lord.

There is no name like the name of Christ, and in Him, we bare the family name of Christ! The name of the Lord is what it is as powerful as it is because His name equals who He is and expresses His nature and character. Take time to reflect on who you are in Jesus, and just how powerful the family name is God bless you Roswell!

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Conversations with a loved one will be animated and informative. You might want to be serious, but you can’t with everything that is going on around you. Resist overthinking, and refrain from putting words in someone else’s mouth. Tonight: Be a duo.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might want to have more say in what is happening, but it is obvious that others are going to take the lead. Get together with friends and loved ones, and frolic along with them.

Tonight: Do not even consider some quiet alone time — be where the action is.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will get more done than you realize is possible if you simply focus and make a list of your priorities. Do not let a project get more complicated right now; do only what you must. You will benefit from a few days away from the grind. Tonight: Choose a favorite form of relaxation.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Attempting to show someone the error of his or her ways might not prove successful. This person’s response is mainly a reaction to your words and/or actions. Go out for a walk or watch a movie in order to remove yourself from the situation. Tonight: Forget the here and now.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Family matters could be overwhelming you right now. You can create a better situation only if others willingly go along with your plan.

Unfortunately, a rigid individual remains firm in his or her beliefs. Recognize that you have hit a concrete wall.

Tonight: Make plans that amuse you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Others remain responsive to your ideas and feelings. If you decide to cut off some negativity or a person who embodies this type of thought, you will be more effective. You also will feel free to toss yourself into life as you would like to. Tonight: At a favorite haunt.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Take a hard look at your budget. Pay bills first, then make a decision about a long-desired purchase. Even if you nix the idea now, you will have another chance later on. Try not to worry so much about the different facets of your life. Tonight: Visit with a favorite person.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You have many different sides to your personality. Some of the people around you know that. Be aware that your sharp words could startle someone who has not seen that aspect of your personality. You will get your point across regardless.

Tonight: What makes you smile.

Roswell girls take District 4-4A title Saturday, March 2, 2013 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

One of the things included in the pre-game introductions of the Roswell girls basketball team at every home game is a phrase about the Coyotes’ run of nine straight District 4-4A championships.

That will need a bit of updating after Friday night.

The No. 3 Coyotes (20-7) rode the back of Georgia L ynn Eldridge and Gali

Sanchez to a 10th straight district title, downing Artesia 59-43 in the title game at the Coyote Den. “It means a decade of excellence. That’s what it means,” said the man who has overseen all 10 of those title teams, Joe Carpenter, about what it means to win another district title. “I’m very pleased with that.”

Senior captain Tiffanie Bolanos, the emotional and vocal leader of the 2012-13 Coyotes, wore her emotions

on her sleeve after the game.

“It means a lot. It feels good to win it for Carp and the girls who put in the work last year and the year before that. It feels good,” she said with a catch in her voice as she wiped away tears. “I wish I had more years with the young ones, Gali and Georgia. It’s hard to take it in that this is your last district game, but it feels good.

After Roswell’s performance, Bolanos had good reason to say she wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.

The Coyotes, who entered the year outside the top 10 in the rankings, looked like a team poised to make another run at the state

championship that has eluded them in the past.

Eldridge’s performance was, without question, the fuel that drove the Coyote engine on this night.

The sophomore post scored six points and grabbed six boards in the first quarter alone, helping Roswell build what would

amount to an insurmountable advantage.

In the final 30 seconds of the quarter, with Roswell up 14-7, she converted two easy bunnies underneath of f feeds from Priscilla Lucero and Myla Brown after Artesia turnovers.

LAWRENCE FOSTER RECORD ASST. SPORTS EDITOR

HAGERMAN — While coaches’ pre-game speeches are glorified, they oftentimes don’t have the impact the media or movies would have you believe.

That wasn’t the case for the Hagerman boys basketball team on Friday, however.

Bobcat coach Anthony Mestas got his team fired up

with a “protect this house” speech and it worked as Hagerman led wire-to-wire in a 66-41 win over Capitan in the District 7-1A Championship Game.

Hagerman junior Jessie Rodriguez, who poured in a game-high 27 points, said the crowd and Mestas’ speech got his team going.

“Our crowd got us into the game tonight and, before the game, our coach gave us a big motivational

speech about how this is our house and no one comes here and beats us.

He said if we won, that we would get the No. 2 seed and I think that is what sparked us tonight.”

It certainly sparked Rodriguez.

Rodriguez drilled a pair of 3s in the first 1:12 to give the Bobcats (21-6) a 6-0 lead, but Hagerman failed to score for nearly four minutes as Capitan closed to

Local briefs: Demon girls top Eunice

DEXTER — Tamara Salas scored 10 points as the Dexter girls basketball team beat Eunice 59-49 on Friday in the District 5-2A Championship Game.

The Demons (19-7) led 12-6 after the first quarter and took a 31-21 into the break. Dexter won the third quarter 14-8, while the Cardinals outscored the Demons 20-14 in the final stanza.

Dexter coach Kim Hamill said that she hopes her team gets to host a playoff game when the state tournament seedings are announced on Sunday.

“You know, we are hoping to host a game,” she

Hagerman got back on track with a pair of Jose Bejarano layups and a jumper from Edgar Soto that pushed the Bobcat lead to 12-7.

Entering the second stanza, Hagerman held a 14-9 lead that was quickly cut to three after a Jake Lamay deuce.

Capitan wouldn’t score for the next 5:33 as the Bobcats forced four turnovers and numerous contested jump shots. Mestas said the defensive success was a result of his team switching things up on Capitan.

“We were switching the defense. We were going man-to-man, matchup zone, 1-3-1,” he said. “We were just switching defenses trying to confuse them, and it really helped us. We had a good second quarter and a good third quarter and kind of blew the game open.”

After the Lamay bucket, Bejarano converted an oldfashioned three-point play to make it 17-11 and, four possessions later, Rodriguez See CRUSH, Page B2

Artesia’s Amy Horner led all scorers with 20 points for the Bulldogs (16-12).

Roswell’s quest for its first state title begins next week and, just like last season, Carpenter has his team playing its best at the right time and, most importantly, believing.

“I do (feel like we’re good enough to win the state

title). I feel like it’s in our hands,” Bolanos said.

“We’ve just got to control what we can control. We’ve just got to work hard for practice, take it game by game, and just play with each other and play as one.”

Eldridge also believes her team is good enough to win it all, and she was more matter-of-fact about it than Bolanos.

“Yes sir, we are.”

Bonnie Franklin dies at 69

Bonnie Franklin, 2008

NEW YORK (AP) — Bonnie Franklin, the pert, redheaded actress whom millions came to identify with for her role as divorced mom Ann Romano on the long-running sitcom “One Day at a Time,” has died.

She died Friday at her home in Los Angeles due to complications from pancreatic cancer, family members said. She was 69. Her family had announced she was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer in September.

Franklin was a veteran stage and television performer before “One Day At a T ime” made her a star.

Developed by Norman Lear and co-created by Whitney Blake — herself a former sitcom star and single mother raising future actress Meredith Baxter — the series was groundbreaking for its focus on a young divorced mother seeking independence from a suffocating

marriage.

It premiered on CBS in December 1975, just five years after the network had balked at having Mary Tyler Moore play a divorced woman on her own comedy series, insisting that newly single Mary Richards be portrayed as having ended her engagement instead.

On her own in Indianapolis, Ann Romano was raising two teenage girls — played by Mackenzie Phillips, already famous for the film “American Graffiti,” and a previously unknown Valerie Bertinelli.

“One Day At a Time” ran on CBS until 1984, by which time both daughters had grown and married, while Romano had remarried and become a grandmother. During the first seven of its nine seasons on the air, the show was a Top 20 hit.

Like other Lear productions such as “All in the Family” and “Good T imes,” “One Day at a Time” dealt with contemporary issues once absent from TV comedies such as premarital sex, birth control, suicide and sexual harassment — issues that had previously been overlooked by TV comedies whose households were usually headed by a husband and wife or, rarely, a widowed parent.

age. She was a child tap dancer and actress, and a protege of Donald O’Connor, with whom she performed in the 1950s on NBC’s “Colgate Comedy Hour.”

A decade later, she was appearing on such episodic programs as “Mr. Novak,” “Gidget” and “The Man from U.N.C.L.E.” On stage, Franklin was in the original Broadway production of “Applause,” for which she received a 1970 Tony Award nomination, and other plays including “Dames at Sea” and “A Thousand Clowns.”

Franklin’s recent credits include appearances on “The Young and the Restless” and the TV Land comedy “Hot in Cleveland,” which again reunited her with Bertinelli, one of that show’s regulars.

Franklin was a “devoted mother, grandmother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend,” her family said in a statement. She also was a longtime activist for a range of charities and civic-oriented issues, among them AIDS care and research and the Stroke Association of Southern California.

In 2001, she and her sister Judy Bush founded the nonprofit Classic and Contemporary American Plays, an organization that introduces great American plays to innercity schools’ curriculum.

A private memorial will be held next week, her family said.

DHS releases 2K-plus illegals

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Homeland Security Department released from its jails more than 2,000 illegal immigrants facing deportation in recent weeks due to looming budget cuts and planned to release 3,000 more during March, The Associated Press has learned.

The newly disclosed figures, cited in inter nal budget documents reviewed by the AP, are significantly higher than the “few hundred” illegal immigrants the Obama administration acknowledged this week had been released under the budget-savings process.

The government documents show that Immigrations and Customs Enforcement released roughly 1,000 illegal immigrants from its jails around the U.S. each week since at least Feb. 15. The agency’s field offices have reported more than 2,000 immigrants released before intense criticism this week led to a temporary shutdown of the plan, according to the documents.

The states where immigrants were released include Arizona, California, Georgia and Texas.

The White House has said it was not consulted about the releases, and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano has acknowledged they occurred in a manner she regrets. White House spokesman Jay Carney on Wednesday said the government had released “a few hundred” of the roughly 30,000 illegal immigrants held in federal detention pending deportation proceedings. Carney said the immigrants released were “low-risk, noncriminal detainees,” and the decision was made by career ICE officials.

As of last week, the agency held an average daily population of 30,733 in its jails. The inter nal budget documents reviewed by the AP show the Obama administration had intended to reduce those figures to 25,748 by March 31.

The White House did not comment immediately Friday on the higher number of immigrants released.

ICE spokesman Brian Hale said Friday the numbers of immigration detainees fluctuate daily, but he reiterated only several hundred illegal immigrants had been released. “Beyond that nor mal movement, and as fiscal uncertainty remains over the continu-

ing resolution and possible sequestration, ICE reviewed its detained population to ensure detention levels stay within ICE’s current budget and placed several hundred individuals on methods of supervision less costly than detention,” Hale said in a statement. “At this point, we don’t anticipate additional releases, but that could change.”

The immigrants who were released still eventually face deportation and are required to appear for upcoming court hearings.

But they are no longer confined in immigration jails, where advocacy experts say they cost about $164 per day per person. Immigrants who are granted supervised release — with conditions that can include mandatory check-ins, home visits and GPS devices — cost the government from 30 cents to $14 a day, according to the National Immigration Forum, a group that advocates on behalf of immigrants.

The release of thousands from immigration jails is consistent with Napolitano’s early warnings on Monday — hours before anyone knew publicly that any illegal immigrants had been released — that the pending, automatic budget cuts known as the sequester would limit the gover nment’s ability to maintain enough detention center beds for at least 34,000 immigrants.

“We’re doing our very best to minimize the impacts of sequester, but there’s only so much I can do,” Napolitano said Monday. “You know, I’m supposed to have 34,000 detention beds for immigration. How do I pay for those?”

Late Thursday, after intense criticism over what the administration acknowledged was the release this week of several hundred immigrants, Napolitano told ABC News that she had been surprised to learn about the action.

“Detainee populations and how that is managed back and forth is really handled by career officials in the field,” Napolitano told ABC. “Do I wish that this all hadn’t been done all of a sudden and so that people weren’t surprised by it? Of course.”

The announcement that a few hundred illegal immigrants were being released was among the most significant and direct implications described so far by

the automatic budget cuts.

Republicans in Congress quickly criticized the decision and pressed the Homeland Security Department for details, including the number of illegal immigrants released and the nature of any criminal charges they were facing as part of the deportation process.

“Simply blaming budget reductions as a means to turn a blind eye toward the national security of the American people is a dangerous plan, and one that calls into question the department’s preparations for sequestration,” wrote two Republican lawmakers, Sen. Charles Grassley of Iowa and Rep. Bob Goodlatte of Virginia, chairman of the House Judiciary Committee.

The senior Homeland Security Department official in charge of arresting and deporting illegal immigrants announced his retirement to his staff on Tuesday, the same day the administration first openly confirmed the release of what it called several hundred immigrants. The executive associate director over ICE enforcement and removal operations, Gary Mead, told his staff he was leaving his job with mixed emotions. A career law enforcement officer, Mead will leave at the end of April.

After AP reported on Mead’s retirement, ICE Gillian spokeswoman Christensen said his decision was not related to criticism over the jail releases and said Mead had notified the agency’s senior leaders “several weeks ago” that he intended to leave. She also called AP’s reporting about Mead’s departure “inaccurate and misleading.” On Thursday, ICE corrected her statement to say that Mead had notified his bosses “more than a week ago,” not several weeks ago.

The later gover nment statement also criticized AP’s reporting as “illinformed, inaccurate information” and complained that AP had failed to contact the agency before publishing what it called a “misguided headline,” although the AP had noted its unsuccessful efforts to contact Mead directly by telephone and email.

HIGH IQ

DEAR ABBY

DEAR HIGH IQ: Being “different” isn’t easy, and clearly you are very intelligent.

But you and your parents should understand that crank calls are not “pranks” — they are a form of bullying and should have been reported when they happened.

Most parents who home-school also network with other homeschooling parents so their children can socialize with peers. If your parents haven’t done this, I recommend you discuss it with them. You might also meet more intellectually advanced young people if you joined special-interest groups for older students.

Your high IQ might be less threatening to the students who have given you trouble if you volunteer to tutor some of them who need help with their schoolwork.

DEAR ABBY: I have been with my boyfriend, “Dan,” for almost five years. He’s wonderful and we have a great relationship. We have talked about spending our lives together, but had mutually agreed in the beginning that marriage wasn’t a priority for either of us. He has said for years that he never wanted to marry — which is fine with me.

I now suspect that he’s planning to propose to me on our fifth anniversary. (He has never been great at hiding surprises.)

I’m thrilled that he wants to make that kind of commitment, and I want nothing more than to spend the rest of my life with him, but the thought of marriage scares me. I don’t know if it’s nerves about the pending proposal or that I have never planned on marriage and now I have to think about all the stress and strife that comes with planning a wedding.

I want to say yes, but I love the way things are right now, and I know that marriage will change things. What, if anything, do I say to him?

COLD FEET?

IN SALT LAKE CITY DEAR COLD FEET?:

I wish you had mentioned why you think being married to Dan would “change things.” If you’ve been happy together for five years, it’s unlikely that making a formal commitment would damage the special relationship you have together.

Perhaps this is “old school,” but I feel that if couples plan to bring children into the world, they should be married. Because you want nothing more than to spend the rest of your life with Dan, and are concerned about the stress of planning a wedding, when he pops the question, I suggest you say, “Yes — why don’t we elope?”

Dear Heloise: My husband stumbled on a great way to keep our 13-monthold grandson from getting into the kitchen drawers without having to install drawer SAFETY LATCHES. He purchased 24-inch extra-long shoehorns. They were inexpensive and plastic.

He slid the shoehorn with the hook so that it grabs the drawer handle on the first drawer and slides down through the rest of them. Depending on the number of drawers in a set we want to secure, he cuts the shoehorn to the desired length. I usually make sure the bottom drawers are safe ones so my grandson can get into them — his favorite place to play.

Small downside: His little hands can sneak in on the sides, but he can’t really get into the drawer.

Rite Aid expands online doctor service Roswell Daily Record

Rite Aid has expanded an online doctor service for its drugstore customers that is limited to virtual visits but cheaper than a traditional primary care appointment.

The company, the nation’s third-largest drugstore operator with 4,600 U.S. stores, said Friday that its NowClinic Online Care program is available at 58 locations in four cities: Baltimore, Boston, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh. Its rivals, Walgreen and CVS, also run in-store clinic programs. Walgreen operates more than 370 Take Care clinics, while CVS runs more than 600 MinuteClinics.

Rite Aid’s service connects drugstore customers with doctors for a video or phone consultation about a range of ailments like allergies, bronchitis, rashes, the flu or sinus infections. Rite Aid officials say the concept aims to improve access to health care. The drugstore’s effort comes less than a year before a wave of new patients is expected to hit the health care system when the federal health care overhaul expands insurance coverage to millions. Some are worried about primary care doctors’ ability to keep up with the expected influx of patients.

“It’s just one more avenue for someone who needs some form of acute care medical attention to get it,” said Robert

Thompson, Rite Aid’s executive vice president of pharmacy. “It’s certainly easier than going to the emergency room.”

Insurers don’t cover Rite Aid’s online care service, but it is less expensive than other types of care.

The 10-minute doctor consultations cost $45, while a doctor’s office visit could cost someone without insurance more than $100 and an emergency room bill might run several hundred dollars.

Doctors can write prescriptions after consulting with patients, or they can refer them elsewhere for more extensive care.

Customers also can have video or phone chats for free with a nurse, who can give them information on common conditions or help them figure out the right health care provider.

Thompson said the service uses a secure technology platfor m built for doctor patient interaction, so privacy is preserved.

“You’re not Skyping with a doctor,” he said.

Rite Aid operates the service in drugstore consultation rooms used by pharmacists for immunizations or to talk to patients. Patients can take their temperature and measure their weight and blood pressure to help with the consultation.

Apple shareholder drops lawsuit on preferred stock

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A disgruntled shareholder pressing Apple to create a new class of preferred stock has dropped a lawsuit that became a moot point after the iPhone and iPad maker changed the agenda at its annual meeting earlier this week.

Lawyers for hedge fund manager David Einhorn of Greenlight Capital notified U.S. District Judge Richard Sullivan in a letter sent Thursday that they no longer plan to pursue the lawsuit. Sullivan closed the case, which began three weeks ago in New York.

Einhorn had already achieved his goal last week when Sullivan issued a preliminary ruling blocking an Apple Inc. proposal that would have required shareholder approval before preferred stock could be issued. Apple withdrew the proposal from the agenda at its annual meeting held Wednesday.

Two shareholders who attended the annual meeting said they were disappointed that they weren’t able to vote in favor of a proposal, which they described as an example of sound corporate governance.

Shareholders had reason to be even more discouraged Friday as Apple’s stock touched a new 52-week low, deepening a roughly six-month slide that has wiped out more than $240 million of the company’s market value.

Apple might be able to ease the pain of a 39 percent drop in its stock price by doling out some of its $137 billion cash hoard to shareholders instead of letting the money idle at a time when interest rates at near record lows.

Einhorn, whose fund owns 1.3 million Apple shares, filed his lawsuit to preserve Apple’s ability to issue dividend-paying preferred stock without having to take the extra step of gaining shareholder approval. He is pushing Apple to issue preferred stock that would guarantee a 4 percent dividend.

Apple CEO Tim Cook dismissed Einhorn’s lawsuit as a “silly sideshow” at an investment conference a few weeks ago and again Wednesday at the company’s annual meeting. During a question-and-answer session with shareholders Wednesday, Cook said Apple’s board is in “very, very active discussions” about what do with all its cash.

Automakers: US sales grew in February Meredith Havens, who recently moved to Texas from Alaska, looks at Volkswagens at a dealership Feb. 22 in Richardson, Texas.

DETROIT (AP) — Americans want new cars and trucks, and they’re not going to let higher gas prices or political dysfunction in Washington stand in their way.

General Motors, Toyota, Ford and most other automakers posted at least modest sales gains for February. Industry analysts estimate last month’s sales rose about 7 percent from a year earlier as pent-up demand and cheap financing kept the U.S. auto sales recovery powering along.

GM sales rose 7 percent, while Ford’s increased 9 percent. Chrysler and Volkswagen also reported increases, but both slowed from the torrid pace of the past two years. Chrysler sales were up 4 percent over a year earlier, while VW sales were up 3 percent. Toyota sales were up just over 4 percent, while Hyundai posted a 2 percent gain.

Of the major automakers, Nissan and Honda were down. Nissan sales were off almost 7 percent from a record February of 2012, while Honda blamed its 2 percent drop on the winter snowstorm in the Northeast.

Auto industry analysts say that higher Social Security taxes, rising gas prices and looming government spending cuts failed to keep buyers away from showrooms.

“I think these little speed bumps aren’t big enough to slow down the momentum right now,” said Jeff Schuster, senior vice president of forecasting for LMC Automotive, an industry consulting firm.

That momentum comes from a number of factors, including the need to replace aging cars and trucks, histori-

cally low interest rates and steady improvement in hiring and hourly pay.

But while sales for 2013 are expected to top last year’s figures, monthly increases are likely to be smaller than the double-digit gains the industry has regularly posted as sales recovered from historic lows following the recession.

Still, GM’s sales were the best since February of 2008, led by the Chevrolet Silverado pickup with an increase of 29 percent. Kurt McNeil, the company’s U.S. sales chief, said the recovery in new home construction is helping to boost the economy and pickup sales.

When home construction thrives, businesses tend to invest more to replace vehicles. The average age of a U.S. pickup truck is just over 11 years.

Ford also reported strong sales of its F-Series pickups, up 15 percent. The company also posted record February totals for the Escape SUV and Fusion sedan. Fusion sales were up 28 percent and Escape sales rose 29 percent.

Together, the Escape and Fusion made up more than a quarter of Ford’s monthly sales.

Ford also said it plans to increase North American production by 9 percent in the second quarter compared with the second quarter of 2012.

At Chrysler, which reported a 21 percent sales increase for all of last year, the growth slowdown was expected.

CEO Sergio Marchionne has warned that first-quarter sales would decline, largely because the company stopped making the Jeep Liberty midsize SUV as it prepares a factory in Toledo, Ohio, to build a replacement model.

‘Snitch’ is a slow ride with a great payoff B6 Saturday, March 2, 2013

Foster’s rating 4 out of 5 UFOs Overview

A father (Dwayne Johnson) goes undercover for the DEA in order to free his son (Rafi Gavron), who was imprisoned after being set up in drug deal.

-From IMDB

What it does right

Things could have went terribly wrong with “Snitch.” It is not a typical Dwayne Johnson movie — that is to say guns aren’t blazing and he isn’t indestructible.

Rather, the movie takes its time building up to two big action sequences. When a film goes with this slowburn approach, one of two things happen: The payoff is terrible and, as a result, the movie is a waste of time, or the climax has the audience on the edge of its seat.

Thankfully this movie falls into the latter category.

Director Ric Roman Waugh, who also helped

CLASSIFIEDS/ENTERTAINMENT

pen the script, uses the time leading up to the first action sequence to help the audience care about the characters. That is time well spent as Waugh shows a vulnerability in each of his characters that helps make a connection to the audience.

The connection is a big reason the action pay-offs work because, by the time the movie gets to the good (read: action) stuf f, the audience is invested in the characters to the point where the edge of the seat becomes the default sitting position. In terms of the slow-bur n approach, it doesn’t get better than this.

I also need to applaud Johnson for taking on a role that isn’t typical for him. In a darker film like this, I would have counted on him being an unstoppable tank.

Instead, his character is on the opposite end of the spectrum. When a criminal points a gun in his face, he acts like most of us would — he throws his hands in the air. When he first tries to gain entrance to the world of drugs, he is assaulted by a handful of gangbangers and, instead of taking them all out like he would in other movies, he gets the snot kicked out

of him.

It is that type of vulnerability and everymanness that helps this movie succeed. If Johnson were in a typical role, the film would not be nearly as good as it is.

What it does wrong

The marketing for the film is very misleading.

Watch the Super Bowl spot for this film and it would be understandable if you figured it would be a typical Dwayne Johnson action movie. As noted above, however, that is not the case. There will be plenty of people who leave disappointed, not because the film was bad, but because it wasn’t what they expected.

Verdict

If you are looking for an action fix, this is not the film for you. On the other hand, if you are in the mood for a slow burn that has a good pay-off, catch “Snitch.” Dwayne Johnson fans should be aware that this is not a typical movie for the current WWE champion, but it is a pleasant surprise to see him stretch his acting legs and tackle different roles.

US seizes 2,200 pieces of artwork in New Jersey NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — The massive trove of artwork arrived in New Jersey last year from Texas on an 18-wheeler — its contents a mystery.

After five days of inventory, the haul proved to be significant: more than 1,100 pieces of art, mostly works by some of the nation’s most influential photographers, including Alfred Stieglitz and Edward Weston.

The valuable shipment was moved again to New York, but instead of being carefully exhibited in a home in Spain as planned, it ended up in the hands of federal authorities. By the end of an investigation, authorities had seized more than 2,200 works of art appraised at nearly $16 million.

On Friday, the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Newark announced a Feb. 22 court filing that alleges the artwork was purchased with money collected in a scheme that sold fake credits for renewable energy. The complaint seeks to force the owner to forfeit the works.

Authorities said they were seized from a warehouse in New York in July weeks after being moved from Newark and readied for shipment to Spain via Amsterdam. The works include numerous prints by Stieglitz, including one of his famous artist wife, Georgia O’Keefe, that sold for $675,000. An Edward Steichen print titled “Greta Garbo for Vanity Fair Hollywood” was purchased for $75,000.

Authorities allege the artworks’ owner, Philip Rivkin, used money fraudulently funneled through his Houstonbased company, Green Diesel, to buy the art. Rivkin has not been formally charged with a crime.

Kyle Sampson, a lawyer for Rivkin, said Friday he was aware the forfeiture action was filed.

“We have not received formal notice of the forfeiture action, but I am aware that a complaint has been filed,” he told The Associated Press. “We’ve been working for some time with the EPA in an effort to resolve their concerns and any other outstanding issues there may be.”

A lawyer for Green Diesel declined comment in an email message.

Rivkin was owner and CEO of Green

Diesel and a company called Fuel Streamers. Authorities allege in the complaint that Rivkin and others claimed the companies produced, purchased and imported renewable fuel.

But authorities say the fuel did not exist.

By federal standards, the national stock of gasoline and diesel must contain a certain percentage of renewable fuel. Authorities allege oil companies, including Shell and Exxon, have reported a total of $78 million in losses from buying fake renewables from Green Diesel.

According to the complaint, an unnamed assistant for Rivkin told authorities that Rivkin controlled all financial accounts. “Money would come in and he (Rivkin) would move it out,” the assistant told authorities.

Authorities allege Rivkin used Green Diesel’s bank account and other accounts to buy at least $18 million in artwork. Rivkin tended to buy his photographs in groups, making it difficult to trace individual purchases, but authorities said they have matched 1,590 pieces of art to one credit card and four bank accounts.

In April 2012, the federal Environmental Protection Agency issued a notice of violation to Green Diesel, alleging it improperly generated credits that track and boost renewable fuel production. Authorities claim Rivkin arranged to have the art shipped out the year before, after learning of the investigation.

An EPA spokesman did not return a call for comment.

According to the complaint, Rivkin’s assistant said Rivkin started purchasing vintage photographs after receiving the “EPA money.” Much of the artwork was shipped from Houston to Newark and eventually bound for Spain, authorities said.

The assistant traveled to Geneva and Barcelona with Rivkin, the assistant told authorities. Rivkin stayed in Spain and when the assistant returned to the U.S. noticed that Rivkin’s office was cleaned out and numerous documents were shredded, authorities said.
