Gov. signs aircraft sales tax elimination into law JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER
AerSale Inc. at Roswell International Air Center hosted Gov. Susana Martinez Monday as she signed into law legislation that will eliminate sales tax on commercial and military aircraft. The law will remove the 7 percent gross receipts tax on the sale of commercial and military aircraft and do away with the tax on any maintenance, refurbishing, remodeling or other work done on the planes. The elimination of sales tax, to take effect July 1, is expected to bring 125 jobs to Roswell and have a direct impact of more than $5 million in the next five years. “The aviation industry is an integral part of New
Mexico’s economy,” Martinez said. “Signing today’s bill is a great start and will ensure that we remain competitive with our neighboring states.” Martinez spoke well of local legislators, who attended the event, for knowing “exactly what to do.” “I don’t have to fight the Legislature from Roswell. They’re with me all the way,” Martinez said. The bill “levels the playing field” for the aviation industry, Martinez said. AerSale and Stewart Industries are two major companies that operate from RIAC. “The word is out already,” said John Mulcahy, executive director of the Roswell-Chaves County Economic Development Corporation. “People can bring an aircraft here,
have it fixed here and now sell it here, and they don’t have to fly it away. That’s an important factor to be able to do it all here.” County Commissioner James Duffey said the new law should be a good thing for the county. “I think it’s great,” Duffey said. “It’s going to create … more jobs here in our community, so hopefully it’s a good thing.” State Rep. Bob Wooley, R-Dist. 66, ushered the bill through the 30-day session. “This is a very historic day I think for Roswell,” Wooley said. “The Lord blessed us and everything fell into place. We got it through.” The state Taxation and Revenue Department reported that there would

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — With the growing season appr oaching and the dr ought continuing to bear down on New Mexico, one of the state’s major irrigation districts said Monday it is getting ready to prime its canals. Officials with the Middle Rio Grande Conservancy District gather ed along one of their major channels as water rushed past to discuss what might be in store for some 11,000 farmers in the valley who depend on the irrigation system. Derrick Lente, chairman of the district’s board of directors, said the district is expecting to have more water than it did last year at this time, and it should be enough to get farmers through spring and early summer. “We’re going to do our best to stretch the season the entir e way,” Lente said. “If we manage it the
right way, we can do it. But the wild card is Mother Natur e, and ther e’s nothing we can do about that.”
The state’s irrigation districts depend heavily on snowpack in the northern mountains and runof f captured during monsoon season. But the state has been struggling through consecutive years of severe drought, and this winter has been one of the driest on record. Still, irrigation officials in the Middle Rio Grande Valley and elsewhere in New Mexico say the watering season is looking more pr omising thanks to record rainfall that helped to replenish reservoirs last fall.
And if the spring runoff pans out, Lente said the Middle Rio Grande district could have about 60,000 acre-feet of water to distribute this year.
Supreme Court passes CYFD seeks foster families in Chaves County on immigration debate
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A f o r me r P en ns y lv a n ia c o al t o w n a nd a D al l a s suburb lost a lengthy batt le t o e n act an ti -i m m igrant laws Monday when the U.S. Supreme Court d e cl in ed t o h e a r t h ei r appeals. The high court has held since 2012 that immigration issues are largely a matter for federal agenc ie s, n ot l o cal g ov e r nments, to regulate. T h e r u l in g M o n da y involved efforts by the city of Hazleton, in northeaste r n P en n s yl va n ia , a n d Farmers Branch, Texas, to enfor ce housing and employment rules aimed at people in the country illegally, a strategy copied by dozens of other cities that faulted federal efforts to control immigration. “ I t h i n k t h in g s l o ok really different now than it did when we initiated this case. Cities are not lo o k in g t o g o dow n t h e
road that Hazleton went down,” said lawyer Omar J ad wa t o f t h e A C L U ’s Immigration Rights Proje c t , w h o s u cc es s f ul l y a rg u ed t h e ca s e i n t h e U.S. appeals court. “What w e ’ r e s ee i n g o n t h e ground is much more that cities and states are looking at ways to integrate i m m i g ra n t s i n t o t he i r communities ... and not ways to exclude people, or criminalize them.”
Hazleton had passed the first local laws in 2006 to address concerns over an influx of immigrants. The laws sought to fine landlords who rented to people living in the country illegally, deny business permits to companies that g a v e t h e m j o bs , a n d required prospective tenants to register with City Hall and pay for a rental permit. However, the laws were never enacted amid the court challenges.

Chaves County needs foster families for local children, and potential foster parents can come to an informational meeting today, said Renee Fitts, statewide recruitment manager for the New Mexico Children, Youth and Families Department. There will be an informational meeting at 6 p.m. today at the CYFD office, located at No. 4 Grand Avenue Plaza in Roswell, Fitts said. The meeting will provide families with information about foster and adoptive parenting, and is for anyone interested in becoming a licensed foster and/or adoptive parent with the CYFD. “There are about 80 children in Chaves County in need of foster homes,” said Fitts, who works out of the Roswell CYFD office. “The age group 6 to 14 is the biggest group we have in need of homes, with 29

children in that age group.” There are 25 children aged 0-2 needing foster homes, and 18 children aged 3-5 in need of foster homes. The smallest age group is 15-17, with eight children waiting for homes. As of January 2014, there were close to 2,000 New Mexico children in foster care. “When we don’t have enough homes in Chaves County, then we have to move these children to where there is an available home,” Fitts said. “We try to stay within the Chaves, Eddy counties area, but sometimes we don’t have a choice.” When children are placed outside of the county, it not only affects the ability of the children to visit with their birth families, it also means the case workers are traveling far and wide keeping in touch with the children. “Our goal is re-unification with the birth families

STATE BRIEFS
Request to oust judge from slaughter suit denied
ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The New Mexico Supreme Court is refusing to bar a District Court judge from handling a lawsuit against a proposed horse slaughterhouse in Roswell. The Albuquerque Journal reports that an order by a three-justice panel of the state high court denies Valley Meat’s request to have District Judge Matthew Wilson removed from the case. The request alleges there’s an appearance of impropriety and a lack of impartiality by Wilson because of posts on his campaign website by other people commenting on the horse slaughter case. The lawsuit by state Attorney General Gary King seeks a permanent order blocking horse slaughter in New Mexico. The resumption of commercial horse slaughter in the United States has been blocked by a new federal budget measure that withholds money for required federal inspections.

The Las Vegas Optic reports that the school located in Las Vegas was overbilled for natural gas it receives from the city’s distribution system. School of ficials say a software conversion for four meters was transferred incorrectly, leading to the

Ken Garcia, city utilities director, had to formally request the refund from the Las Vegas City Council at a meeting Tuesday. The council unanimously approved the adjustment. The university’s monthly gas utility bill is normally between $8,000 and $10,000.
Architect resigns from Farmington school project
FARMINGTON (AP) — Plans to build a new high school in Farmington are at a standstill after the architecture firm overseeing the project abruptly quit. The Daily Times reports that Greer Stafford/SJCF Architecture resigned from the $62 million project. The Farmington Municipal School District Board of Education accepted the resignation during a meeting Thursday. Scott Stafford, the firm’s president, says the resignation was the result of a disagreement with district officials that couldn’t be overcome. School district officials declined to comment, citing confidentiality agreements. Ted Lasiewicz, the district’s chief of operations, says the new Farmington High School will be completed by the end of 2016. Lasiewicz says the firm is still involved with other district projects and will continue to work with them in
the future.
Ban on texting while driving to become law
ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A proposal to ban texting while driving in New Mexico has become a state law. Gov. Susana Martinez signed the bill Sunday afternoon while at the New Mexico Office of the Medical Investigator in Albuquerque. The proposal will prohibit drivers from sending or reading text messages and emails, or making Internet searches from smartphones or other hand-held wireless devices. There would be a $25 fine for a first violation and $50 for subsequent violations. The bill would make exceptions for situations such as summoning medical or other emergency aid. Forty-one other states ban texting by all drivers. New Mexico already prohibits texting for teenage drivers with a learner’s or provisional license.
Pecan harvest shatters expectations
LAS CRUCES (AP) — New Mexico pecan growers reported this month that they are seeing their largest crop in years. Farmers initially estimated the state’s winter harvest was 60 million pounds of in-shell pecans. But growers say a breakdown of how much has been purchased indicates a haul of 75 million pounds, the Las Cruces Sun-News said. “Our production was big, extra-big,” said grower
Dave Slagle, who farms in Leasburg north of Las Cruces. Farmers and experts say that if the figure holds steady, the haul will be the state’s largest of the last 10 years. According U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates, New Mexico’s last big pecan crop was 74 million pounds in 2007. Growers say the feat is surprising because last year was considered the worst river-water irrigation year in a century. Many credit increasing groundwater for helping. Several far mers said trees that were planted in the past 15 years are now hitting their stride. The more recently planted trees are starting to increase their production levels, said Phil Arnold, a Las Cruces pecan buyer and farmer. It takes typically about eight years for a tree’s production to reach a peak. “I think a lot of that was due to the input that was from the younger orchards,” he said of the unexpected crop size. “We’re seeing the overall tonnage starting to increase a little bit.” The Dona Ana County area also got a boost from heavier summer monsoon rains last year, Ar nold added. Groundwater can cause salts to build up, affecting crop growth. “That rainwater actually helped flush a lot of those salts out of the soil,” he said.

Police arrest 39 over weekend Roswell Police Department officers responded to 50 incidents, 13 traffic accidents, and arrested a total of 39 individuals (34 adults and five juveniles) — another busy weekend for officers. Eleven reports of residential and vehicle burglary were filed with the police over the weekend. Thousands of dollars’ worth of items were stolen. Some reports contained information regarding windows that were broken in order for the perpetrator to gain access, causing hundreds of dollars in damages. Other reports showed no sign of forced entry.
Fences, windows damaged by vandals
Individual community members filed seven reports of criminal damage with officers. A chain link fence sustained damage consistent with that of a vehicle hitting it on the 500 block of Cypress Avenue, causing approximately $500 in damages. Residences and vehicles sustained window damage on the 700 block of North Missouri Avenue, the 100 block of North Delaware, the 900 block of North Michigan, the 3200 block of North Kentucky, and the 700 block of North Kentucky; resulting in thousands of dollars in damages. None of the incidents involving window damages appear to be related. A fence was kicked down on Tucker Court. The estimated damage to the fence is $150.
Police respond to fraud complaints
Five reports of fraud were filed with the RPD from Feb. 28, through March 2. One incident involved a company that

contacted a woman and claimed she owed money on a loan. The woman believed she had been a victim of identity theft due to her purse and contents being stolen. Another report stated a woman’s H&R block card had been utilized to obtain goods fraudulently. Two reports filed on Saturday by two separate people stated their bank accounts had fraudulent transactions on the accounts.
Counterfeit money reported
Another report of fraud involved counter feit money. A man attempted to pay for goods at a local convenience store with counterfeit money. When the cashier explained it could not be accepted, the man then paid with his debit card.
Handguns, vehicle stolen
Nine reports of larceny were filed. These reports include larceny, larceny of vehicle, and shopliftings. According to one report, two handguns were stolen from an individual — possibly by a person the individual knew. The estimated value of the handguns is $400. Out of five shopliftings, five people were arrested; two being juveniles. One report of larceny stated a vehicle was taken by someone the vehicle owner knew. The vehicle was later found, but was missing approximately $1,000 worth of items, including a GPS unit. Anyone with information regarding these crimes or any other is urged to contact the Roswell Police Department at 624-6770 or Crime Stoppers 1-888594-8477.

Blacklisted film gets atonement ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A 1954 movie about a real-life miners’ strike that was blacklisted during the Red Scare is being celebrated in New Mexico as the 60th anniversary of the film approaches. “Salt of the Earth” was blacklisted in the U.S. during Cold War retribution against Communist filmmakers and gained an underground following more than a decade later when it was finally shown. The story was told through the eyes of a female character named Esperanza as Mexican-American miners barred by federal law from striking against a zinc company were replaced on the picket lines by their wives.

OPINION
Protecting all of our Omarees isn’t just about funding
Sen. Clemente Sanchez wanted to do something about child abuse and its watchdogs in the Children, Youth and Families Department. From his wife, a former social worker, he heard two words: case load. Our underpaid, overextended social workers can’t monitor each kid in a way that might have saved Omaree Varela from the allegedly brutal treatment of his mother. Five bills in the recently completed legislative session focused on CYFD, but only one passed, an indicator of both complexity and the distance to consensus. Sanchez wanted a limit of 15 cases, which might require another 22 hires. The Child Welfare League of America recommends 12 to 15 children per social worker; the average in CYFD is 12 to 20. His fellow Grants Democrat, House Speaker Ken Martinez, introduced “Omaree’s Law,” which would have required CYFD

to immediately take custody of a child with injuries consistent with abuse. If abuse was proven, the child would stay in custody until the parent received professional counseling. CYFD argued that in fiscal 2013 it received more than 21,000 reports alleging physical abuse. The bill would have the unintended consequence of overwhelming not only CYFD but the courts. The governor supported a bill to make it clear that everybody is responsible to report abuse, but the law already prescribes that. (Omaree himself and at least one total stranger reported his
abuse.) The only successful effort was by Sen. Michael Padilla, who was himself an abused child and abused foster child. His Senate Joint Memorial 3 passed both chambers and will result in more infor mation about the state’s overloaded foster care system. During budget hearings, understaffing, turnover and burnout within CYFD’s Protective Services came up. The House Appropriations and Finance Committee pressed more money on the reluctant agency to add protective services positions, increase caseworker salaries, and improve foster and protective services care and support. One of the more quoted exchanges took place in the Senate Finance Committee between Sen. George Muñoz, D-Gallup, and CYFD Secretary Yolanda Deines, when Muñoz asked pointedly, “What are you going to do to make sure this doesn’t happen

again?” Deines answered honestly, “As long as we’re dealing with human behavior and human behavior being as unpredictable as it is, I believe that there is always a possibility, as sad as it is, that we could experience this once more.” In other words, even with a regiment of caseworkers, even with reviews and reforms, it only takes a moment’s lapse for a drugaddled parent and/or caretaker (all too often, the boyfriend) to end a child’s life or inflict permanent injuries. Still, we can do better, and it’s not always about money. I once knew a good social worker whose tur f was a dif ficult, unstable area. When she’d had all the heartache she could endure, she disappeared for a few days or a week. When she returned, she was ready to hit the streets again. Her supervisors were wise enough to not bother her about her absences.
Higher pay would help, but so would mental health time, although the mechanics of creating that within the massive state employee system could be sticky. Child advocates have persistently raised an issue more dangerous than staffing, and that’s CYFD’s emphasis on returning kids to their parents, no matter how iffy the parents are. This may stem from a fear of appearing heavy handed (I remember those headlines too) or the studies showing it’s traumatic for kids to be removed from even bad parents, although it’s time to question those studies. Also, because our foster care system is maxed out (hence, Padilla’s bill), it may often be a decision made between two awful choices. Speaker Martinez described Omaree’s Law as the beginning of a conversation. We need to keep talking.
Tracking our tags
Even though Washington still is grappling with the public backlash over revelations about its data-mining activities with Americans’ phone records, the federal government apparently has not been deterred from exploring new ways to collect information and monitor citizens. The Washington Post reported Tuesday that the Department of Homeland Security is seeking a private contractor to set up a nationwide license-plate scanning system that would give the agency access to records from tag readers across the country. Many local law enforcement agencies already use cameras mounted on police cars, bridges or road signs to read license plates so they can be cross-checked with criminal databases. That’s creepy enough, but it at least is limited in scale to the state and local levels, although they increasingly share the information with each other. The DHS, though, wants to set up a vast federal database of all those plate numbers. Hey, what could go wrong? It’s not like federal officials have ever abused information to spy on political enemies or punish opponents. The FBI and IRS, just to name two, would never compromise their mission, ideals or standards to stoop so low. The federal plate database ostensibly would be run by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency (ICE), which suggests that the primary goal is tracking people who are suspected of being here illegally. However, the solicitation for the contract also says that the vendor will compile licenseplate records “from a variety of sources nationwide, including access control systems, asset recovery specialists, and law enforcement agencies.” So it won’t be strictly border control. The government would be drawing on plate data from everywhere, which could make it useful in many functions. A spokesman for ICE tried to reassure the public by telling the Post that the database “would be run by a commercial enterprise, and the data would be collected and stored by the commercial enterprise, not the government,” and that the data “could only be accessed in conjunction with ongoing criminal investigations or to locate wanted individuals.” Nevertheless, anytime you have a vast, centralized database on people’s communications, commercial transactions, medical history or travel there will be the potential for “mission creep” fueled by the temptation to access it for means other than originally intended. It’s one thing to check it because you are trying to match a plate with a criminal suspect. But the opportunity exists to use it to keep tabs on certain people for noncriminal reasons, or to identify trends of innocent citizens. It’s bad enough that many businesses accumulate such information, although there are ways to limit one’s exposure. It’s worse when the federal government, with its vast powers, seeks to keep a close eye on its people. Abuses can have more far-reaching consequences. DHS should answer some basic questions: How long would this data be stored? What is required to access it? How many other government agencies will have access to it? Driving on a public road is not a private act; eyeballs can spot your vehicle. Still, it’s disconcerting to have the government collecting data on our travels.

To defeat GOP’s restrictive voting laws, debunk ‘voter fraud’ JOE CONASON CREATORS SYNDICATE
Growing up in Jim Crow Arkansas, Bill Clinton saw how the state’s dominant political and racial elite maintained power by suppressing the rights of minority voters who threatened its authority — and as a young activist, worked to bring down that illegitimate power structure. So when Clinton says, “There is no greater assault on our core values than the rampant efforts to restrict the right to vote” — as he does in a new video released by the Democratic National Committee — the former president knows of what he speaks. In the segregationist South of Clinton’s youth, the enemies of the universal franchise were Democrats, but times have changed. Not just below the Mason-Dixon Line but across the country, it is Republicans who have sought to limit ballot access and discourage participation by minorities, the poor, the young and anyone else who might vote for a Democratic candidate. No doubt this is why, at long last, the Democratic Party has launched a national organizing project, spearheaded by Clinton, to educate voters, demand refor ms, and push back against restrictive laws.

alcohol takes the lives of nearly 300 people every day in the United States. (Tobacco takes more than 1,000 every day.) Though
the nation’s “explainer -inchief,” Clinton may be able to draw public attention to the travesty of voter ID requirements and all the other tactics of suppression used by Republicans to shrink the electorate. His first task is to debunk the claims of “voter fraud,” fabricated by Republican legislators and right-wing media outlets, as the rationale for restrictive laws. Lent a spurious credibility by the legendary abuses of old-time political machines, those claims make voter suppression seem respectable and even virtuous. Some years ago, the Brennan Center for Justice, based at New York University and led by former Clinton speechwriter Michael Waldman, issued a 45-page report on voter fraud that remains definitive. “There have been a handful of substantiated cases of individual ineligible voters attempting to defraud the election system,” the report noted. “But by any measure, voter fraud is extraordinarily rare.” And because fraud is so unusual, GOP countermeasures, such as voter ID, do much more harm than good. As the Brennan Center study noted, even some Republicans know their leaders have exaggerated stories of fraud for partisan advantage.
most did not become famous in the way that Philip Seymour Hoffman and Whitney Houston were, each had friends and family who mourn their passing. Fortunately, not every person who drinks alcohol or tries drugs becomes dependent. Why, then, do some people develop addiction while others do not? Our genes account for about half of our risk for addiction. The environment in which people grow up and their personal histories also play an important role. People who were abused or neg-
In 2007, the Houston Chronicle quoted Royal Masset, the former political director of the Texas Republican Party, who observed that among Republicans, it is “an article of religious faith that voter fraud is causing us to lose elections.” Masset admitted that suspicion is false but said he believed that requiring voters to provide photo ID could sufficiently reduce participation by legitimate Democratic voters and add 3 percent to Republican tallies. More recently, one of the dimmer lights in the Pennsylvania Republican Party — the majority leader of the state House of Representatives, in fact — boasted that the voter ID statute he had rammed through the Legislature would “allow Gov. Romney to win the election” in November 2012. Although Mike Turzai later insisted that “there has been a history of voter fraud in Pennsylvania,” the state government conceded in court that it could cite no evidence showing that “in-person voter fraud has in fact occurred in Pennsylvania or elsewhere.” Clinton can also consult the President’s Commission on Election Administration, a bipartisan panel appointed by President Barack Obama to improve the country’s voting systems. In its final report issued last January, the commission forthrightly acknowl-
lected as children, for example, have a higher risk of developing addiction than children who were nurtured. People with mental illness are also particularly vulnerable. Still, although some people are more at risk for addiction than others, nobody is immune to addiction. That’s because we are all wired to respond similarly to rewards. The brain registers all forms of pleasure in the same way: by releasing the neurotransmitter dopamine in the brain. That’s
edged that true voter fraud is “rare.” It was a singular admission by a group whose co-chairs included Benjamin Ginsberg, an aggressive Republican election attorney who bears the burden of responsibility for the outcome of Bush-Gore 2000. If he is in a bipartisan mood, as he often is, Clinton would surely find the commission’s report uplifting — especially its recommendations to make voting more modern, more efficient, and above all, more accessible. For both parties to improve and expand, the democratic rights of citizens would be uplifting indeed. But Clinton is more likely to find himself feeling less kindly toward the Republicans, as they continue to promote outrageous suppression while feigning outrage over “fraud.” The Democrats may be equally motivated by partisan selfinterest — but so long as they defend the rights of the intimidated and the disenfranchised, their moral force will be undiminished.

true whether the pleasure originates with a drug, a monetary reward, sex or a satisfying meal. (I’ve put an illustration of this reward pathway on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) But drugs of abuse, such as nicotine or heroin, release two to 10 times the amount of dopamine as do natural rewards — and they do it more quickly and more reliably. It’s possible that people who get hooked more easily have a more robust dopamine response. In See DR. K, Page A5

Celebrating National Craft Month at the library
Roswell Daily Record
LORETTA CLARK ROSWELL PUBLIC LIBRARY
As part of National Craft Month, a free knitting clinic will be held at the Roswell Public Library, 301 N. Pennsylvania, on Saturday from 10 to 11 a.m. Knitters are encouraged to pull out those unfinished projects and bring them to the clinic for assistance and advice. Two local artists, Donna Davis and Margaret Barry, have years of experience in knitting and other fiber arts. They are available to assist with getting started on a pattern, fixing a mistake or finishing the projects. Since each project can be very different, their assistance will be on a person-to-person basis. Crafts are the creation of useful and functional objects through mental and manual skill and may be a hobby or a profession. The library has many resources for both beginning and advanced crafters. Your library card is the key to accessing these books, magazines, DVDs and Internet databases. One collection of databases is Ebsco, which includes Hobbies & Crafts Reference Center, providing access to full-text articles, patterns, guides, detailing “how-to” instructions and creative ideas to meet the interests of almost any craft enthusiast. One craft category is Needlecrafts & Textiles featuring over 25 subheadings, such as Appliqué, Cross Stitch, Embroidery, Knitting, Quilting, Weaving, etc. Other Ebsco databases are Consumer Health Complete, Auto Repair Reference Center and NoveList, listing novels by author, title, subject and characters.
To access the databases from computers at non-library locations, go to the library’s website at www.roswellpubliclibrary.org. Click on Online Resources for a list of databases provided by the library. The website also features the online catalog of materials, the ability to renew checked out library books and other materials, the Calendar of Events and general information on the various resources and services of the library. Reference librarians are available to assist patrons in accessing databases, locating books and information.
Book talk
Libraries and their books are the storytellers to the nation. In a similar way, television has become the storytellers to the nation, especially through TV series. Frequently, these series are based on novels. A new series, “Resurrected,” will premiere this Sunday and is based on Jason Mott’s novel, “The Returned.” Imagine a world where a few of the dead come back, not like in a modern horror story, but just as they were when they died; looking and acting the same as when they were alive. Matthew Gormley, adult services librarian, investigates this premise in Jason Mott’s “The Returned,” which is available for checkout as a hardbound science fiction title, an E-book and as a “talking book” on CD. Also on E-
book is “The First,” a short story prequel showing how it all began when Edmund Blithe turned up for work a year after he was hit by a bus and dying. After this first spectacular return event, the dead or returned, started reappearing all around the world. In “The Returned,” the impossible is occurring with the reappearance of returned family, friends and others, turning life upside down. Are the returned a miracle to be loved or feared? In the small sleepy town of Arcadia, Agent Bellamy of the International Bureau of the Returned shows up on the doorstep of Harold and Lucille Hargrave with their 8year-old son. Jacob died in 1966 on his birthday when he wandered off and drowned in the river near his home. As the story proceeds, Harold and Lucille must come to terms with the changes in their lives as they readjust to a world where their son is back. They will deal with their own doubts, regrets, and guilt over their son’s death and return. In the process they rediscover who they were and how they have changed in the years since their son’s death. As the Hargraves are coming to terms with their own demons, the town of Arcadia is thrown into turmoil as it is split into two groups. The first group includes those who are willing to accept the returned, while the other includes those who will go to almost any extent to make them leave. Mott will have readers thinking about what would happen in their own lives if one of their loved ones showed back up after being gone for years. With spare, elegant prose and searing emotional depth, award-winning

What’s happening?
Each week, the library features three story and craft hours for children. On Wednesday, the programs begin at 10 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. and on Saturday, it begins at 2 p.m. This week the story times will feature fairy tales and animal babies. Children attending the story portion of the program are invited to be creative with the related crafts. All materials are provided for the crafts. However, children must arrive within the first 15 minutes of program to participate in the craft session. The stories and crafts may vary between programs and the quantity of some craft items may be limited. ‘Once Upon a Time’ is the traditional beginning of fairy tales. During the Wednesday story times, the fairytales might focus on “Once Upon a Time,” “Snappy Sounds Once Upon a Time,” “The Knight and the Dragon” or a puppet presentation of “The Three Billy Goats Gruff.” The morning programs feature stories, song and movement activi-
A5
ties for toddlers and preschool children. The Wednesday afternoon programs are geared more for older children. Pre-cut materials are provided for crafts that might include making stick puppets of the Billy Goat Gruf f, Three Little Pigs and a Big Bad Wolf, as well as creating a cardboard castle scene, complete with stick puppets of a princess, knight and dragon. Kids could also decorate a crown to wear home. Animal babies are always a story time favorite and the Saturday stories could feature “Is Your Mama a Llama”; “Hatch, Egg, Hatch”; “Ten Little Lambs”; “Five Little Ducklings”; “The Baby Beebee Bird”; “A Nap in a Lap” or a puppet show of “Clifford’s Puppy Days.” For the related crafts, precut materials will be provided to make Clifford the Big Red Dog as a puppy, decorate a spiral with many different kinds of animal babies and assemble a mother hen and her chicks in a nest. Remember, daylight saving time begins on Sunday.
Books Again
Mysteries and ‘Who Dun It’ titles are featured during the March sale with all mystery books costing $1 each.

Education and indigent funding: Hot topics during and after the session A lot of issues swirl around any given legislative session, but when it comes to doling out the money, education is always at the front of the line. So it should be no surprise that New Mexico’s schools got a lot of attention in this year’s session. If signed as expected by Gov. Susana Martinez, the $6.2 billion budget passed for the coming fiscal year (which begins July 1) includes an overall 5 percent increase in spending over the current fiscal year. That means that additional money will be going into the state’s school funding formula as well as extra money for Public Education Department initiatives. As a result, schools all over the state will go into the 201415 school year with a little more money for operations, something that superintendents and school boards will surely appreciate, while PED gets to continue its reform agenda, which a lot of local educators won’t like one bit. Put another way, the new budget gives greater flexibility to local school districts and a bigger bully pulpit for PED. The issues aren’t all about money. The Legislature also pro-
TOM MCDONALD ROUNDHOUSE DISPATCH
duced bills that give local schools a bit more autonomy when it comes to physical education requirements for graduation and the administering of specified types of emergency medications. But then, local schools lost some autonomy too: a Seal of Bilingualism, to be affixed to high school diplomas belonging to students who are proficient in speaking and writing in more than one language, was passed into law even though some districts already have a bilingual seal. This new law will make it statewide — and based on criteria to be established by PED. So instead of giving local districts control over this matter, it’s actually taking away an option they already had.
BENEFIT RAISES $54,000 FOR YOUTH’S CARE
CLOVIS — Winners were announced in Clovis in a drawing for two works of art donated to raise money for the family of a young Lea County cowboy injured a horse accident. Six-year -old Sterling Decker was severely injured at his family’s ranch in October, and New Mexico artists Curtis Fort and Gary Morton contributed works, a bronze sculpture and a painting, to assist the family with the enormous bills associated with Sterling’s medical care and long-term rehabilitation. Although he still has a long road ahead to get back to his original self, Sterling has taken many big steps toward his full recovery,
and he and his family were on hand for the drawing, held at Joe’s Boot Shop in Clovis. On hand with Fort, Morton, and store owner Coli Hunt, Sterling and his little sister Stoney drew the two winning tickets which belong to Jennifer Weatherford of Hobbs and Stewart Bogle of Dexter. Tickets were purchased by individuals in several states, many of the contributors from agricultural and rural communities. Sales totaled almost $54,000 with all the money going to the Decker family for Sterling’s care and rehabilitation. — Clovis Livestock Market News

Meanwhile, expect PED will continue to push its teacher evaluations and for merit pay increases — both of which have drawn the ire of a lot of educators who criticize these reforms as unfair, counterproductive and simplistic. Will these hot-button issues remain on the Martinez administration’s front burner in 201415? Maybe, maybe not. Martinez and the PED are in a good position to insist on some local cooperation for its reforms and initiatives, so maybe so. On the other hand, Martinez is up for re-election this year, so she may opt to quell the objections with inaction. We’ll see soon enough. Overall, I’d say the stage is set for a status-quo year in education. The spending increase might just quell the policy disagreements. Both sides may rattle their sabers, but actual action will probably take a back seat to Election Day when Martinez will either fly into a second ter m (and greater national prominence) or crash in an unexpected defeat. Of course, all bills passed during the session must have the gover nor’s signature before

becoming law. I would be surprised if any of the education measures I’ve mentioned here will be vetoed by Martinez, but I don’t feel so certain about Senate Bill 268. That’s the bill to fund indigent care at hospitals around the state. It’s critically important to struggling hospitals all over the state that need a funding source to replace the Sole Community Provider provision in federal law, which currently funds indigent patient services at hospitals. SB 268 replaces that funding mechanism by tapping into county revenues. What the bill does is pull onetwelfth of a cent from counties’ gross receipts tax revenues to pay for indigent care in nearly all the state’s hospitals. The Lovington Leader reported last week that Lea County anticipates this will cost the county $4 million annually. County commissioners, the Leader reported, directed their county manager to contact an attorney about the constitutionality of the bill. The Association of Counties reluctantly agreed to the legislation after their initial proposal, to pull an eighth of a cent from the counties rather than a

twelfth — but Lea County is demonstrating that the association wasn’t speaking for all counties. I’ll bet we will read about other disgruntled counties in the weeks ahead. It may seem the governor has no choice but to sign the bill, since there’s some urgency here. One hospital official said (without identifying his sources) that up to seven rural hospitals in the state could go out of business if this matter isn’t addressed. True enough, small hospitals all over the state are struggling, and the loss of the Sole Community Provider benefit will certainly hurt, but the federal program doesn’t expire until 2015. It would seem the state has time to consider other funding approaches. We’ll soon see what the governor thinks, as a stroke of her pen is all that’s needed to make SB 268 the law.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) ### You might sense that you have an edge, and you do in a key situation. You’ll have little tolerance for settling for anything less than what you want. Your temper could erupt at any given moment. By mid-afternoon, you’ll become far more poised. Tonight: Treat a loved one. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ### You could go from being somewhat blue or quiet in the morning to being Mr. or Ms. Personality by the afternoon. You’ll express a real sense of direction and draw others in closer. Even someone who does not usually agree with you could emerge. Tonight: Among the crowds. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) ### Use the morning for a key project, when your leverage and ability to draw in others is high. By the afternoon, you might resent being bogged down by what you judge to be insignificant details. Hold your tongue, and keep your own counsel. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. CANCER (June 21-July 22) #### You seem to offer a perspective that many people do not have. Your feedback is valued, even if you encounter difficulties with a higherup. This person simply tends to be a bit of a curmudgeon. Refuse to let this person get to you. Tonight: Do what you

Dealing with work matters might preoccupy your afternoon. Tonight: Out till the wee hours. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) ### Deal with a partner, associate or friend directly.

Tonight: Paint the town red. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) #### Though generally you’re known as the sign of diplomacy, lately you seem to be specializing in putting your foot in your mouth. Do not let today be another example of this behavior. In the afternoon, listen to a loved one’s saga. Tonight: Dinner for two. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) ### Dive into work, and clear out as much as possible in the morning. Interpersonal interactions will take up a large part of the afternoon. You’ll enjoy the change of pace. Talk with a loved one about what you want for the two of you. Tonight: Go with the flow, but accept an invitation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) #### You could be more in tune with a child, a new project or a loved one in the afternoon.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) ### You are likely to speak your mind and cause quite a hullabaloo. By the afternoon, you might wish that you had stayed a little more contained.

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL
SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) — Russell Wilson has enjoyed spending time with the Texas Rangers. Yet the Seattle Seahawks are never far from the young quarterback’s mind. While Wilson sat in the Texas Rangers dugout Monday, fans yelling “Seahawks” filled the spring training stadium. “I couldn’t expect anything less,” Wilson said. “The 12th man fans were unbelievable today. They’re everywhere. The 12th man fans are out in the outfield, they’re on third-base line, first-base line, chanting ‘Seahawks’ the whole way. Hopefully the Dallas fans didn’t get too mad.” Wilson threw for 3,357 yards and 26 touchdowns and helped the Seattle Seahawks rout the Denver Broncos 43-8 in the Super Bowl last month. He also happens to be a pretty good baseball player, drafted three times and hitting .229 with a .350 on-base percentage in 93 games in 2010-11 in the low minors in the Colorado Rockies system. But he’s had instant success in the NFL. “You never say never,” Wilson said. “I’ve always had the dream of playing two
Cort Marley scored just seven points, but three of them came at critical times to help Gateway Christian advance in the District 3-B tournament on Monday. The Warriors reached the semifinals of the district tournament with a 45-42 win in double overtime over visiting Vaughn at the Red Rock Warrior Center. With the fourth-seeded Eagles leading 42-40 with 15 seconds left in the second overtime, Caleb Raney knocked down a triple to put the Warriors ahead. Gateway (8-13) forced a turnover on the next Vaughn possession and Marley sealed the victory with a pair of free throws. Earlier in the game, another Marley free throw is what kept Gateway in the game. With 5 seconds left in regulation, Marley split a pair at the line to forge a 37-all tie and force an extra session. The two teams deadlocked in the first overtime, setting up the deciding second extra stanza. Gateway led 20-19 at the break, but Vaughn rallied for a 33-28 lead going to the fourth. Johnny Worrall paced the Warriors with a double-double of 16 points and 20 rebounds. Marley finished with seven points and nine rebounds, while Raney added eight points. The Warriors will meet second-seeded Lake Arthur in the semifinals in Lake Arthur on Wednesday at 6 p.m.

SINGAPORE (AP) — Paula Creamer sank a 75-foot eagle putt on the second playoff hole against Azahara Munoz to win the HSBC Women’s Champions on Sunday for her first LPGA title since the 2010 U.S. Women’s Open. Creamer’s putt curled across the 18th green and then rolled slowly down the slope and directly into the hole. She ran across the green, then fell to her knees and put her head on the ground, laughing and pounding the grass. “It’s one of those putts where if you just get it in the right spot, it’s going to fall down,” she said. “But I could stand there all day long and putt that and I don’t think get it within six, seven feet.” Creamer and Munoz finished 72 holes tied at 10under 278, one stroke ahead of Karrie Webb, who led after every round but bogeyed three of her last six See CREAMER, Page B3

Class 4A girls bracket: Just another NMAA failure
It was just two days ago when I wrote that Benjamin Franklin’s timeless quip about the certainties of life needed to be modernized a bit. It seems I need to slightly alter my proposed moderation. I’m thinking something along the lines of this: “In this world, nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes, a Roswell run and ridiculous decisions by the NMAA.” In yet another head scratcher, the New Mexico Activities Association has found a way to circumvent its own rules and punish one of the member teams it is tasked to assist. The Association’s employees, most of whom rarely watch any basketball games outside of the Albuquerque metro area, make up the committee that is charged with selecting and bracketing the

teams for the state basketball tournament. In years past, that committee has done a fairly admirable job. This is not one of those years. The Association’s own bylaws state that “one district team cannot be seeded or selected higher than another if they came out of district as a lower seed, with regular season taking precedence over tournament play.” The committee, however, seemingly ignored this portion of its

own bylaws when it put together the Class 4A girls basketball bracket. In the District 4-4A regular-season standings, Roswell was first, Goddard was second and Artesia was third. Yet, Artesia made the field and Goddard did not. Yes, Goddard and Artesia finished with identical 1-3 records in district play this year. Goddard ended up as the No. 2 seed in the district tournament because of the NMAA’s point-spread tiebreaker. Before you continue, I want you to re-read the last word in the previous sentence at least a handful of times. Soak that word in and let it permeate your brain. Think about it and think about what it means. The word is tiebreaker: As in, break a tie; as in, the tie no longer exists because it is now broken.
Roswell Daily Record
Apparently the brain trust at the NMAA defines the word tiebreaker differently than the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, though. In the same portion of the bylaw that contains the clause about the order in which district teams are selected, this phrase appears: “In the event of a tie in the regular season district standings, the NMAA Staff may use district tournament results or any other head to head competition to determine the selection/seeding order between the two teams that are tied.” What tie? How can there be a tie if you have a procedure for breaking ties? So Goddard and Artesia were tied, then they weren’t because the tie was broken according to the NMAA bylaws, then they somehow ended up tied again?

Artesia beat Goddard handily in the district tournament and then almost knocked off Roswell in the title game, I get it. But I’m not saying Artesia doesn’t belong in the field. I’m saying that, according to the NMAA bylaws, Goddard belongs in the field and it should be seeded ahead of Artesia. The seeds for the district tournament are determined by your finish in the regular-season district standings. Goddard was No. 2 and Artesia was No. 3. It’s that simple: Tiebreakers break ties. The NMAA’s lone purpose is to protect the best interest of all of its member schools and teams. In this case, they failed miserably. And based on what I’ve seen, another failure is as certain as death, taxes and a Roswell run.

It’s been almost three years and so much has happened,” Creamer said. “Holding that trophy, gosh, it was so nice.” For much of the day, it appeared as if Webb, not Creamer, would take the trophy home. But after avoiding trouble on a tricky Serapong course at Sentosa Golf Club for much of the week, the veteran Australian stumbled late. First, Webb’s three-foot par putt on the 13th caught the edge of the hole and curled away. Then she hooked her tee shot left on the 15th, grimacing as it dropped into the water. She settled for bogey on both. She came undone on the 18th when

At the same time, my focus is winning the championship with the Seattle Seahawks and hope to be playing for a long time. “For me, it only being my second year, yeah I won a Super Bowl and all that, but that’s not enough for me. It really isn’t. My goal is to be one of the best quarterbacks to ever play the game, if not the best. I’ve got a long ways to go. I make sure I get up earlier than Tom Brady and Drew Brees and they’re on the East Coast.” The Rangers picked Wilson for $12,000 in the Rule 5 minor league draft in December.

Webb wasn’t the only one who had a disappointing day. Defending champion Stacy Lewis saw her streak of 13 consecutive top10 finishes broken with her joint-40th place. She had been closing in on Webb’s LPGA record of 16 straight top-10 finishes, set in 1998-99.

LeBron pours in career-best 61
MIAMI (AP) — Best player. Best game of his career. LeBron James clearly isn’t ready to concede his MVP award to anyone yet. Dazzling from inside and out, James put on the best scoring show of his NBA life Monday night, pouring in 61 points — a career high and franchise record — as the Miami Heat beat the Charlotte Bobcats 124107. It was the eighth straight win for the two-time defending champions, who are starting to roll as the playoffs get near. James made 22 of 33 shots from the field, including his first eight 3-point attempts. “The man above has given me some unbelievable abilities to play the game of basketball,” James said. “I just try to take advantage of it every night. I got the trust of my teammates and my coaching staff to go in there and let it go.” His career best had been 56 points, on March 20, 2005, for Cleveland against Toronto. Glen Rice scored 56 to set the Heat record on April 15, 1995, against Orlando. James had 24 points at halftime, then

20-point scorers, Lake Arthur again romped past Corona to reach the semifinals of the district tournament. Luis Velo and Cody Dalton scored 24 and 21, respectively, to pace the Panthers. Lake Arthur (11-13) won each of the four quarters, outscoring the visitors 25-6 in the first, 23-5 in the second, 23-3 in the third and 20-6 in the fourth. Miguel Rubio chipped in 13 and Dominic Pisana had 12. Every Panther scored at least one point on the night.
added 25 in the third quarter. The recordbreaker came with 5:46 left, when James spun through three defenders for a layup that fell as he tumbled to the court. “There was an efficiency to what he was doing,” Heat coach Erik Spoelstra said. “The rim looked like an ocean for him.” Spoelstra walked into his postgame news conference with a confession: He nearly took James out after the third quarter. Good thing he thought better of that plan. “He was in a great groove, obviously,” Spoelstra said. Al Jefferson had 38 points and 19 rebounds for the Bobcats, his huge night merely an afterthought. This was all about LeBron. “You take away his 61 points,” Jefferson said, “and we still had a fighting chance there at the end.” Most points in a game. Most field goals in a game. Most points in any quarter in Heat history, with the 25 in the third. Most points in the second half, 37, by any Heat player ever. “Once he sniffed 60, we knew he was going for it,” Heat forward Shane Battier said. “And the amazing part is the efficiency. Good Lord. Sixty-one on 33 shots, that’s Wilt Chamberlain-esque. That’s pretty amazing. Incredible performance.” When James checked out with 1:24 left, the entire Heat roster met him near midcourt for high-fives and hugs, and the sellout crowd gave him a standing ovation. A second huge roar followed when he waved to the crowd, as “M-V-P” chants rained down. Charlotte has allowed the two biggest single-game scoring totals in the NBA this season. Carmelo Anthony had 62 points for the New York Knicks against the Bobcats on Jan. 24. Chris Bosh scored 15 for the Heat, and Toney Douglas added 10. Chris Douglas-Roberts and Anthony Tolliver each scored 12 for Charlotte.

tions has drawn comparisons to the O.J. Simpson case two decades ago. Prosecutors allege that Pistorius, who has been free on bail, shot Steenkamp after an argument. He has said he killed her after mistaking her for a nighttime intruder in his home, shooting her through the closed door of the toilet cubicle in his bathroom. Steenkamp, 29, was hit three times — in the head, elbow and hip area; a fourth bullet did not hit her. Early testimony focused on whether the screams that Burger said she heard were those of a terrified woman about to be shot to death, as prosecutors allege, or were instead Pistorius’ desperate shrieks for help after a fatal mistake, as his defense lawyers contend. Burger, who lives about 180 meters (196 yards) from Pistorius’ house, gave her account of the sequence of events in the pre-dawn hours of Feb. 14 last year. “I was woken up by a woman’s petrified screams. I heard her screaming first,” Burger said. “Then I heard her call for help. Then I heard a man call for help three times. I then made a call. ... I gave the phone to my husband and he spoke to security. Afterward, I heard the woman’s petrified screams again.” Burger said she then heard four gunshots, with a gap between the first shot and the rest, and more screaming. “I heard her voice during the shots,” she said. “Shortly after the shots was the last time I heard that woman.” The chief defense lawyer, Barry Roux,
opened his cross-examination by asking Burger if she thought Pistorius was a liar. She didn’t directly answer that, but questioned Pistorius’ version. “I can only tell the court what I heard that evening,” Burger said. “I cannot understand how I could clearly hear a woman scream but Mr. Pistorius could not hear it.” Roux, in an attempt to discredit the idea that Pistorius and Steenkamp had an argument before the shooting, contended that Burger heard just Pistorius screaming for help. He also suggested that she had not heard gunshots, but instead had heard the sound of the athlete breaking down the toilet door with a cricket bat after realizing he had shot Steenkamp. “Could there have been shots fired when you were still asleep and you heard the screams afterward?” he asked. Roux’s constant challenges to Burger’s account of the sequence of events made for a contentious back-and-forth at times. “Shall I repeat my question? It can’t be that difficult,” Roux said at one point, implying that the witness was evasive. On another occasion, Burger said: “I didn’t sit there with a stopwatch and take down the timing of each shot.” Pistorius pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and three other counts relating to shooting guns in public in unrelated incidents and illegal possession of ammunition. Defense lawyer Kenny Oldwadge read a statement from Pistorius in which he said the killing was an accident and that there were inconsistencies in the state’s case.

Diversity the big winner at the Academy Awards LOS ANGELES (AP) — Diversity was perhaps the biggest winner at the 86th annual Academy Awards. For the first time, a film directed by a black filmmaker — Steve McQueen of “12 Years a Slave” — won best picture and a Latino — Alfonso Cuaron of “Gravity” — took home best director in a ceremony presided over by a lesbian host and overseen by the academy’s first black president. And only two of the top six awards went to Americans. McQueen’s grimly historical drama “12 Years a Slave” took best picture, leading the usually sedate filmmaker to jump up and down in celebration after his acceptance speech. The British director dedicated his award to “all of the people who endured slavery and the 21 million people who still suffer slavery today.” Cuaron’s lost-in-space thriller “Gravity” led the Oscars with seven awards, including cinematography, editing, score, visual effects, sound mixing and sound editing. Some in his native Mexico have been critical that since the attention came for a Hollywood release and not a Mexican-themed film, his win didn’t have the same kind of importance. “I’m Mexican so I hope some Mexicans were rooting for me,” he told reporters backstage. The entire Oscar ceremony had

the feel of a make-over for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences — an institution that has sometimes seemed stuck in the past. After a Los Angeles Times report revealed the academy was overwhelmingly older white men, new president Cheryl Boone Isaacs has pushed for a more varied membership. The movie industry that the Oscars reflect has also been reluctant to tell a wider range of stories. “Dallas Buyers Club,” the best picture-nominated drama about AIDS in 1980s Texas, took two decades to get made after countless executives balked at financing such a tale. Matthew McConaughey and Jared Leto, the two Americans in the top six awards, took best actor and best supporting actor titles for their roles in the film as a heterosexual rodeo rat (McConaughey) and a transgender drug addict (Leto) united by HIV. “Thirty-six million people who have lost the battle to AIDS and to those of you out there who have ever felt injustice because of who you are or who you love, tonight I

ty,” starring Sandra Bullock. A study by analyst Kevin B. Lee found that last year’s lead actors averaged 100 minutes on screen, but lead actresses averaged only 49 minutes. “To the audiences who went to see the film and perhaps those of us in the industry who are still foolishly clinging to the idea that female films, with women at the center, are niche experiences, they are not,” said Blanchett. “Audiences want to see them and, in fact, they earn money.” “12 Years a Slave” also won awards in the writing and acting categories. John Ridley picked up the trophy for best adapted screenplay, which was based on the 1853 memoir by Solomon Northup. The screenwriter is only the second black writer (Geoffrey Fletcher won for “Precious” in 2009) to win in the category. Backstage, the “12 Years” team mentioned their efforts to include Solomon Northup’s memoir as part of high school study. The National School Boards Association announced in February that the book is now mandatory reading. “It’s important that we understand our history so we can understand who we were and who we are now and most importantly who we’re going to be,” said Brad Pitt, who produced “12 Years.” “We hope that this film remains a gentle reminder that we’re all equal. We all want the same: Dig-

nity and opportunity.” Lupita Nyong’o was a first-time Oscar winner for her supporting role as field slave Patsey in “12 Years.” “I’m a little dazed,” said Nyong’o backstage. “I can’t believe this is real life.” Nyong’o is the sixth black actress to win in the supporting actress category — and the first major Oscar win for Kenya (the president of Kenya congratulated her in a tweet) — following Hattie McDaniel (“Gone with the Wind”), Whoopi Goldberg (“Ghost”), Jennifer Hudson (“Dreamgirls”), Mo’Nique (“Precious”) and Octavia Spencer (“The Help”). Foreign language film nominees included “The Missing Picture,” the first-ever Oscar -nominated film from Cambodia. “The Act of Killing,” a dark look into the mass killings of communists and ethnic Chinese in Indonesia in the 1960s, was nominated for best documentary feature. In her second time hosting, openly gay Ellen DeGeneres sought to make celebrities more like plain folk. She passed out slices of pizza to the front rows at the Dolby Theatre, then passed the hat to pay for it. She also tweeted a “selfie” with such stars as Meryl Streep, Julie Roberts, Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Pitt and Nyong’o. The shot “made history,” DeGeneres told the audience later. It’s since been retweeted more than 2 million times.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE
DEAR ABBY: I’m a single mother of a beautiful 2-year-old daughter. I have always pictured myself as a mom of four little princesses. When I fantasized about having children, I imagined fairy tales, ballet, cheerleading, dress-up, tea parties — all girl things. Now I’m expecting a little boy and I feel heartbroken. When I lear ned my first was a girl, I couldn’t wait to meet her. I bought her everything pink and frilly. Here I am eight weeks from my due date, and I have yet to buy this baby a single thing.
When I look at baby boy items, I become severely depressed. I’m no longer with the baby’s father. He and his family are very excited about the baby, as he will be the only male grandchild for this generation. The truth is, the more I think about it, the more I am pulled in the direction of signing over my parental rights to my ex. At least he really wants him, whereas I don’t. I know this sounds terrible and selfish. I feel like a monster, but I can’t help it. My family is totally against it. My dad says I shouldn’t even allow my ex to visit our son in the hospital after he’s born. No one will listen to how I feel. They keep saying my feelings will change after the baby is born, but I doubt it. I just need some guidance. UNDESERVING TITLE OF MOMMY DEAR MOMMY: I don’t think you are a monster. I DO think you are not thinking objectively right now.
COMICS
Let me point out that life doesn’t always go the way we fantasize. Because you imagined that you’d be the mother of four little princesses doesn’t guarantee that you WILL be. I see no need to rush into signing any papers right now, regardless of how eager your boyfriend and his parents are about the baby. There will be time for that later, if you still want to. For now, ask your parents to help you select some baby boy outfits, and tell your doctor about all of your feelings because they may be hormonal. You might benefit from some professional counseling right now — more than I can offer you — and I urge you to get it before doing anything you might later regret.

I called my friends to let them know, thinking it was a mistake on the part of the restaurant at the time it was purchased. They said they would come by and pick up the card. I have heard nothing from them since, and I haven’t written a thank-you note or made any further attempt to contact them.
Family Circus
Was I right in calling them? Do I now ignore the whole thing? GIFT CARD DENIED
DEAR G.C.D.:
You did nothing wrong in calling your friends to tell them what happened. They may not have picked it up because they were embarrassed, or because they really never intended to activate it. I don’t think it’s necessarily worth ending a relationship over — IF you want to continue a friendship with people whose credibility you question.

FROM HELOISE
KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Heloise: Please do not let other people make the same mistake we did. In June of 2010, we leased a new vehicle. With that came free satellite radio for three months. After the three months of FREE RADIO, the radio was automatically shut off. Since November of 2010 until December of 2013, we were billed $16 a month on our credit card. We acknowledge that we did not pay attention to our credit-card statement, as we noticed this only when we paid off our card as a New Year’s resolution. When we called the radio company, it would not reimburse us, and even the credit-card company would go back only three months to help us out. M.O. in New York
Today’s Crossword Puzzle
A good consumer warning! Remember to check credit-card statements every month. You have a much better chance of disputing charges if you notice them right away. Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: I travel often with my two daughters for dance competitions requiring overnight stays in hotels. Hotels typically provide three to four bath towels, which simply are not enough for three females with long hair, who require two towels apiece. Here is my hint: Leave a note with a small gratuity for housekeeping. I even specifically ask, in the note, for the exact amount of towels I would like to be left in the room. I have never been disappointed, and my requests have always been taken care of. Linda W., via email Linda, you also can call housekeeping and ask for extra towels as soon as you arrive. Plus, please do always tip housekeeping — most times they are left out, and they do a very, very hard job! Heloise ##### Dear Readers: Recently, I shared information about the difficulty of recycling prescription bottles. At Heloise Central, we started brainstorming all the uses for these bottles and wanted to give some hints to help keep these bottles out of the trash: * Keep one in the car to hold spare change. * When traveling, use to hold cotton balls or cotton swabs. * Pack with thread, needles and safety pins for an emergency sewing kit. Readers, now it’s your turn. Let us know how you reuse these bottles. Heloise P.S.: You can ask your pharmacist for “not child resistant” caps. These caps can be taken off, turned over and reattached to the same bottle. Now the bottle can be opened with a simple turn instead of having to press down and turn. ONLY do this in households without children. ##### Dear Heloise: I have come up with a great use for old rubber kitchen gloves. When my long-haired, yellow Labrador comes outside with me, I put on old rubber gloves to give him a thorough rubdown. The dog hair comes off in sheets! He loves it because it is a great petting session. This works on cats, also. Joan M. in California

Oscarcast: A fine scene hosted by Ellen
NEW YORK (AP) — With only a week to catch our breath after the lengthy cavalcade of Winter Olympics coverage, this year’s Oscarcast may have seemed a refreshingly snug handout of awards. After all, it lasted only slightly more than three and a half hours, aired on ABC from a single venue (Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre), and was emceed by the comfortably reliable Ellen DeGeneres. By comparison to the Sochi games, Oscar went by in a flash. Meanwhile, it had its high moments and a bare minimum of deficits, easily catalogued in cinematic terms: Great scene! Or ... best left on the cutting-room floor. — Great Scene: The show’s kickoff, which, unlike so many years before, wasn’t an extravagant comedic film featuring the host with a bevy of stars, but instead, found DeGeneres arriving on stage to deliver her simple, but satisfyingly funny, monologue. In gently wry style, she ribbed celebs in the hall as well as show biz in general. (The nominees, she declared, had collectively made over 1,400 films, “and you’ve gone to a total of six years of college.”) Then she brought on the first presenter. Brisk and efficient.

STATE OF NEW MEXCOUNTY OF ICO CHAVES FIFTH JUDICIAL DISTRICT IN THE MATTER OF THE PETITION FOR CHANGE OF NAME OF Joel Gilbert Stark, Case#CV-2014-76
AMENDED NOTICE OF CHANGE OF NAME
TAKE NOTICE that in accordance with the provisions of Sec. 40-8-1 Sec. 40-8-3 through NMSA 1978, the Petitioner Jamie L. Chavez will apply to the Honorable Steven L. Bell, District Judge of the FIfth Judicial District at the Chaves County Courthouse, 400 N. Virginia, in Roswell, New Mexico at 9:00 a.m. on the 5th day of May, 2014 for an ORDER FOR CHANGE OF NAME from Joel Gilbert Stark to Joel Gilbert Chavez.

Submitted by: /s/Jamie Chavez 4708 W. Deming Roswell, NM 88203 (575) 208-8161
After that, she kept the energy flowing through a broadcast predictably sparse in surprises among those who won. Unlike many hosts, she was a regular presence, at one moment gathering stars in the audience for a group selfie to tweet, at another bringing in a pizza delivery guy to share slices with audience members (and then confessing she had no money to pay the bill: “Where’s Harvey Weinstein?”). DeGeneres did what any host should do: Stay involved and make sure everyone has fun. At the same time, she seemed to be committed to an unspoken theme for the evening: Humanize Hollywood’s glitterati for the viewers. In return, the stars were on their best behavior. — Great Scene: Best supporting actor (for “Dallas Buyers Club”) Jared Leto’s acceptance speech paid tribute to his mother, thanking her “for teaching me to dream,” then celebrated the dreams “in places like the Ukraine and Venezuela” — before pledging his support to those who have felt injustice “because of who you are or who you love.” He was the night’s first winner, and, in accepting his trophy, also pulled off a humanistic hat trick.

After the faces and names of the departed had been seen, Bette Midler sang the evocative “Wind Beneath My Wings.” — Great Scene: The heartfelt acceptance spilling out of best supporting actress Lupita Nyong’o (”12 Years a Slave”), who made it clear she understood that “so much joy in my life is thanks to so much pain in someone else’s.” — Great Scene: The evening’s finale, a joyous reception for best picture winner “12 Years a Slave.” All in all, a sleek show was the Oscarcast. Few bombshells, fewer embarrassments, from fade-in to fade-out. Then, in cinematic terms, that was a wrap.
