Law expected to give dairy farmers more protection JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

Local officials hope a new amendment to the state constitution that was signed into law Thursday will protect farmers from costly litigation and help strengthen the region’s stressed agriculture industry.

Gov. Susana Martinez signed the Right to Farm Nuisance Changes, House Bill 51, with a wording change that is expected to cut down on unfair nui-

sance lawsuits often filed by out-of-state organizations.

“Anything will help farming and ranching in an industry that basically is very unique,” said state Sen. Stuart Ingle, R-Dist.

27, minority floor leader.

“The last thing we need is more liability on farming and ranching. They’re so liable now for so many things.”

It will also help the southeast dairy industry further recover from the economic downturn it has

experienced in the past four years, local officials said.

Chaves County remains the state’s dairy capital with some 50 dairies, followed by Curry and Roosevelt counties.

The state’s dairy industry has been hit by a series of costly lawsuits that operators continue to battle, said Beverly Idsinga, executive director of Dairy Producers of New Mexico.

“Basically, what happened was some out-ofstate attorneys came in to

sue some of our dairies,” Idsinga said. “They’ve done this in other states. Part of the reason they’re doing that is because we had a very weak Right to Farm act.”

DPNM worked with legislators to get the change through this year’s session, Idsinga said.

“This will give (dairies) that level of protection for lawsuits,” Idsinga said.

“Hopefully, it will get us in there to hang on a little bit longer.”

The change also makes a

difference for businesses that want to locate to New Mexico. Even if farmers win the lawsuits, they still pay legal costs and increases in insurance as a result, Ingle said.

“We’ve got to have a fair system,” Ingle said. “We have to have a decent atmosphere for business.

We have a very liberal interpretation for who is liable for what in this state. We always have.”

New Mexico supported 180 dairies before a perfect storm hit four years ago.

The state lost 21 percent of its dairies with a combination of drought, extremely high feed prices and low milk prices, said Robert Hagevoort, New Mexico State University extension dairy specialist in Clovis.

Chaves County had 60 dairies before the economic downturn.

“The loss of 21 percent of your dairies, it tells you the magnitude of your problem, and just how bad things were,” Hagevoort said.

employees will enter the facility until probes can be used to deter mine the cause of the leak and the extent of the damage. One scenario officials are considering is that a ceiling or a wall of the storage facility collapsed, causing the leak.

Franco was joined by David Klaus, U.S. Department of Energy deputy undersecretary, and David Huizenga, senior advisor for the DOE’s Of fice of Environmental Management for a town hall meeting and a news teleconference in Carlsbad.

“I was heartened to see the WIPP team is dedicated and ready to understand and work with us,” Huizenga said of the plant employees.

Huizenga said the Centers for Disease Control and the Environmental Protection Agency verified

Probes may enter WIPP facility today to seek cause of leak

Officials at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant say they could begin sending probes into the facility to determine the cause of the radiation leak as early as today.

Joe Franco, manager of the Department of Energy’s Carlsbad Field Office, said plans to begin sending probes today into the mines to determine what caused the radiation leak on Feb. 14, if conditions are suitable for beginning the work.

“Factors that could affect that decision include wind, and even rain,” Franco said in a news conference Thursday evening. If weather allows, probes should be deployed into the plant within the next few days in an attempt to determine the cause of the leak.

CCSO announces a Woman receives questionable gift card offer series of promotions RANDAL SEYLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The Chaves County Sherif f’s Of fice announced a series of promotions within the department, Thursday.

Sheriff Rob Coon said: “We have top quality promotions and new supervisors that will do a great job for the department.”

The faces are changing to fill spots vacated after Chief Deputy Pat Jennings and Sgt. Barry Dixon retired.

Jennings retired at the end of November. Lt. Britt Snyder was promoted early in December, replacing Jennings as deputy chief, which, in tur n, created another vacancy.

“The promotions are

done through a testing process. I didn’t wave a magic wand and promote them. They are the best qualified for the jobs.

They’ve all earned it,” said Coon.

Det. Doug Perham and Deputy James Mason have been promoted to sergeant.

Sgt. Perham will continue as supervisor of the CCSO’s Criminal Investigation Division, where he has worked for many years. Sgt. Mason will be supervisor of the patrol division.

According to Snyder, Perham scored highest in the sergeant’s exam, while Mason came in second. He praised both men.

A Roswell woman whose credit card information was stolen in the Target security breach in December received a “too good to be true” offer in the mail last week.

Gene Reames, 84, received a postcard stating that if she called a phone number, she would receive a $100 gift card, good at Walmart or Target.

When she called the phone number, she was told for a $1 charge on her credit card, she would receive the $100 gift card good at either retailer and a $25 gift card good for various unspecified restaurants.

“What they are out for is that credit card information,” said Sandra Titus,

Reames’ daughter. “All this started after she used her credit card at Target back before Christmas.”

Target disclosed on Dec. 19 that a data breach compromised 40 million credit and debit card accounts between Nov. 27 and Dec. 15. Then, on Jan. 10, it said hackers also stole personal information — including names, phone numbers, and email and mailing addresses — from as many as 70 million customers.

The nation’s second largest discounter told The Associated Press that Beth Jacob, who has overseen everything from Target’s web site to its inter nal computer systems as chief information officer since 2008, has resigned. The company said it will

search for an interim CIO. The departure, which was effective on Wednesday, comes as Target works to overhaul some of its divisions that handle security and technology following the massive data breach.

Target spokesman Antoine LaFromboise said customers should be wary of giving personal and financial information away over the phone or online.

“As always, we encourage guests to be careful with offers from unknown sources. Target is working to mitigate phishing efforts in several ways,” LaFromboise said.

“For example, we have posted copies of our email communication to Target.com/DataBreach.

Guests are able to compare any emails they have received to official copies

See PROBES, Page A3

of the emails that Target has distributed. Additionally, Target has posted various tips to avoid phishing scams.”

The Roswell Daily Record also called the 800-number and was referred to a website, funvantage.com. The webpage had no pages linked and offered no specific information about what companies it offers discounts with, but a Better Business Bureau link connected FunVantage to a Florida company called Ocenture LLC. “Unfortunately, we do have people who take advantage of our good name to perpetrate these types of scams,” said Walmart Media Relations SpeSee OFFER, Page A3

City working to repair broken water line near elementary school A broken water line at Washington Avenue Elementary School has resulted in buses being rerouted while the city repairs the damage and has shut down some of the school’s bathrooms.

“We’re not sure to what the extent of the damage, but it has af fected the school, said Mark Earnest, superintendent of the city Water Maintenance and Transmission Department.

“They do have active bath-

rooms in the facility and water for the children to drink.”

Ear nest said the city has been coordinating repair efforts with school officials.

“They are rerouting buses to the south pull up of the building,” Earnest said. “Everything is in motion and we are proceeding as quick as can.”

The broken water line is an inconvenience, but it is business as usual at Washington Avenue Elementary, said Principal Ron Tidmore. “We are on top of it.”

Roswell city employees worked Thursday to fix a broken water line at Washington Avenue Elementary School. The repairs resulted in the buses being rerouted to the south entrance and shut down some bathrooms in the school.

T idmore said the students have access to safe drinking water and bathroom facilities.

Police seek kidnapping suspect Detectives from the Roswell Police Department are seeking the public’s assistance in locating Christopher Gavazza.

Gavazza is a suspect in a recent kidnapping case, according to a news release issued Thursday by the police department.

At approximately 10:30 p.m. on Wednesday, an officer responded to a convenience store on the 2000 block of West Second Street in reference to an attempted armed robbery.

Counts said Shields committed a monstrous act that required a lengthy period of incarceration.

Speaking incoherently at times, Shields said she did not want to be perceived as “infamous” but added she had taken responsibility for her actions.

“I’m not asking for anyone’s sympathy; I’m just asking for forgiveness,” she said. “I am very sorry from the bottom of my heart.”

A prosecutor called for a 15-year sentence, characterizing Shields as manipulative and lacking remorse.

“It was a horrific crime, obviously, and Evelyn was a great person,” Deputy District Attor ney John Sugg said.

However, Sugg said the sentence imposed by Counts was fair and just considering the fact that Shields was 15 when Miranda was killed.

If confirmed by the U.S. Senate, Lopez will administer an agency with a $1 billion budget and more than 5,000 employees.

Lopez has held his current job since 2003. The commission oversees New Mexico’s compliance with interstate water compacts.

Lopez was Santa Fe County manager from 2001 to 2003, and before that held several jobs in the county’s utilities operation.

He was an engineer with a state utility regulatory agency from 1990 to 1997.

ties Union of New Mexico has filed a lawsuit against the state Corrections Department and a former probation officer accused of sexually assaulting a woman.

STATE BRIEFS

ALAMOGORDO (AP) — A 17-year-old girl who pleaded guilty in the killing of her foster mother in her southern New Mexico home now faces roughly 10 years in prison.

District Court Judge James W. Counts on Wednesday sentenced Alexis Shields to 30 years in prison but suspended 17 years of the sentence.

The remaining 13 years of the sentence will be reduced by the 999 days that Shields has spent in custody since Evelyn Miranda was killed in June 2011, the Alamogordo Daily News reported.

Shields pleaded guilty in December to first-degree felony murder of Miranda, who was found dead in her San Patricio home.

A co-defendant, who also was 15 when Miranda was killed, awaits trial in the case. The Associated Press is not using her name because of her age.

Authorities say the girls stole Miranda’s car, cellphone and computer. They were captured at a friend’s

Woman suing former parole officer

Aron Sarellano, 26, is wanted in connection with a charge of criminal sexual penetration of a child. The incident occurred on Feb. 22, on the 1800 block of North Main Street. Through the course of the investigation, officers obtained sufficient probable cause and secured an arrest warrant for Sarellano. He is described as being 5 feet, 11 inches tall and 170 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. His bond is $100,000 cash only. Anyone with information about Sarellano’s location is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 888-594-TIPS (8477). Callers may remain anonymous and could be eligible for a reward.

Gordon Chavez was sentenced this week to 18 months in prison after pleading guilty last September to a civil rights violation.

The ACLU’s suit filed on behalf of a parolee who alleges that Chavez violated her constitutional rights.

It also claims the New Mexico Corrections Department was negligent for failing to provide adequate information and resources for probationers to report parole officer misconduct.

Johnny Ortiz, 39, is wanted in connection with a probation violation. He is described as being 5 feet, 6 inches tall and 156 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes. His bond is $100,000 cash only. Anyone with information about Ortiz’s location is asked to contact Crime Stoppers at 888-594-TIPS (8477). Callers may remain anonymous and could be eligible for a reward.

Corrections officials did not directly respond to the lawsuit Thursday, saying misconduct won’t be tolerated within their ranks.

HERE COMES EL NINO; GOOD NEWS FOR US WEATHER WOES

WASHINGTON (AP) — Relief may be on the way for a weather-weary United States with the predicted warming of the central Pacific Ocean brewing this year that will likely change weather worldwide. But it won’t be for the better everywhere.

The war ming, called an El Nino, is expected to lead to fewer Atlantic hurricanes and more rain next winter for drought-stricken California and southern states, and even a milder winter for the nation’s frigid northern tier next year, meteorologists say.

While it could be good news to lessen the southwestern U.S. drought and shrink heating bills next winter in the far north, “worldwide it can be quite a different story,” said North Carolina State University atmospheric sciences professor Ken Kunkel. “Some areas benefit. Some don’t.”

Globally, it can mean an even hotter year coming up and billions of dollars in losses for food crops.

The National Oceanic Atmospheric and Administration issued an official El Nino watch Thursday. An El Nino is a warming of the central Pacific once every few years, from a combination of wind and waves in the tropics. It shakes up climate around the world, changing rain and temperature patterns.

Mike Halpert, acting director of NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center, says the El Nino warming should develop by this summer, but that there are no guarantees. Although early signs are appearing already a few hundred feet below the ocean surface, meteorologists say an El Nino started to brew in 2012 and then shut down suddenly and unexpectedly.

The flip side of El Nino is called a La Nina, which has a general cooling effect. It has been much more frequent than El

Ninos lately, with five La Ninas and two small-to-moderate El Ninos in the past nine years. The last big El Nino was 19971998. Neither has appeared since mid2012. El Ninos are usually strongest from December to April.

Kevin Trenberth, a senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research, who wasn’t part of NOAA’s forecast, agreed that an El Nino is brewing.

“This could be a substantial event and I think we’re due,” Trenberth said. “And I think it could have major consequences.”

Halpert said it is too early to say how strong this El Nino will be. The last four have been weak or moderate and those have fewer effects on weather.

Scientific studies have tied El Ninos to far ming and fishing problems and to upticks in insect-born disease, such as malaria. Commodity traders even track El Nino cycles. A study by Texas A&M University economics professor Bruce McCarl found the last big El Nino of 1997-1998 cost about $3 billion in agricultural damage.

Trenberth said this El Nino may even push the globe out of a decade-long slowdown in temperature increase, “so suddenly global warming kicks into a whole new level.”

Kunkel said if this El Nino is a strong one, global temperatures, probably in 2015, could “be in near record breaking territory.”

Halpert, however, says El Ninos can be beneficial, and that the one being forecast is “a perfect case.”

After years of dryness and low reservoirs, an El Nino’s wet weather would be welcome in places like California, Halpert said.

plant at the time of the leak shows they aren’t likely to experience any serious health effects.

The repository stopped taking shipments in early February when a truck hauling salt through the underground mine caught fire. Several workers were treated for smoke inhalation, and the mine was temporarily closed.

Nine days later, sensors alerted to a release of radiation from the underground portion of the mine. Monitors as far as half a mile away later detected elevated levels of plutonium and americium in the air.

The DOE, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the repository’s managers have all said there’s no public health threat, but watchdog groups have questioned whether officials are holding back information related to the leak.

“I am a born and raised Carlsbad kid,” Franco said. “I have family here, and it is very important to me that safety is key. I have a lot of experience from my work in other facilities, and we are following safety procedures.

To me, it is key to keep the community safe.”

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

The new changes protect farmers and ranchers from encroaching urban sprawl and nuisance lawsuits by stipulating that agricultural operations that have been in existence at least one year shall not be considered a nuisance, unless operated negligently or illegally.

Agriculture in New Mexico was a $4.1 billion industry in 2012, according to the New Mexico Department of Agriculture.

Snyder explained that it was a big transition between sergeant and lieutenant, and even lateral moves require training.

“Daniel and I will be working closely together on issues of budget and administration.”

The Sheriff’s Office has hired four new people since January. Three have completed the New Mexico Law Enforcement Academy. One has yet to finish the training.

Two more are in the stages of the hiring process.

The sheriff’s administrator Susan Goldstrom is also changing offices from CCSO to the Director of Human Resources at Chaves County.

“She’s done a great job, here,” said Snyder. “Now, she’ll be helping all the employees in the county. We’re going to miss her.”

The crisis in Ukraine highlights two truths about international politics: Some things have not changed since the end of the Cold War. And some things have changed a lot.

What remains is the map.

Ukraine still sits on Russia’s wester n border; the name “Ukraine” means “borderland” in Slavic, and the area was once known as “Little Russia.” With the rapid expansion of NATO eastward, Ukraine is one of only two countries (Belarus is the other) that provide a buf fer between Russia and Wester n allies like Poland and Hungary.

That gives Russia’s czarlike leader, Vladimir Putin, large and legitimate interests in who rules that country. As Charles King, a Russian expert at Georgetown, wrote in the New York T imes, “Some things are not wrong just because Russians happen to believe them.”

But geography is not as important as it once was. In a world of global markets operating in cyberspace, capital flows across boundaries as easily as water.

was before the Berlin Wall collapsed and that makes Moscow — and Putin — more vulnerable to economic pressures.

“What we see here are distinctly 19th- and 20th-century decisions made by President Putin to address problems,” one administration official told the Times.

“What he needs to understand is that in terms of his economy, he lives in the 21st-century world, an interdependent world.”

All true. Yet geography has not yielded completely to globalization. One in five Ukranians speaks Russian and identifies strongly with Moscow. Putin’s argument that he was sending in troops to protect them was a fraud; there was no evidence that any ethnic Russians were in danger. But they remain a key factor in the geopolitical balance.

So does the historic ambition of Slavic people in Northern Europe to control warm-water, all-season ports. The Russian Black Sea fleet, based in Ukraine’s Crimean region, has a direct route to the Mediterranean via the Bosphorus, the strait that runs through Turkey.

We lived in that region for almost four years. We watched countless Russian vessels sail through that passage, and the scene leaves an indelible lesson: Russia would do almost anything to protect its naval power. That’s why Putin’s troops occupy the Crimean peninsula.

The Russian leader is learning, however, that soldiers cannot control markets. Traders back in Moscow did some marching of their own — away from assets and investments that could be jeopardized by the turmoil Putin triggered.

Russia’s currency, the ruble, plunged to all-time lows against the dollar and the euro, forcing Moscow to raise interest rates dramatically and pour cash into currency markets to counteract the selloff.

The Moscow stock market fell

sharply, and Reuters reports that the leading losers “were the many companies, from banks to retailers, with heavy sales exposure to Russia and Ukraine.” The markets bounced back a bit after their initial panic, but the point had been made.

Andrei Kuznetsov, a Russian banking strategist, told the news agency that about 70 percent of the stock shares traded in Moscow are controlled by foreigners. And close to half of those foreigners are American.

“The Russian market has always been dependent on foreign investors,” he noted, and they have many other places to put their money. In fact, currency exchange shops in Moscow were so swamped by skittish investors wanting to trade rubles for dollars that they ran out of greenbacks.

In delivering a forceful warning on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Secretary of State John Kerry pinpointed Moscow’s economic exposure: “Russia has major investment and trade needs and desires. I think there’s a unified view by all of the foreign ministers I talked with yesterday ... that they’re

simply going to isolate Russia, that they’re not going to engage with Russia in a normal, business-as-usual manner, that Russia is inviting opprobrium on the international stage.”

T rade works both ways, of course. Europe gets about onethird of its natural gas from Russia and some countries, especially Germany, are reluctant to turn the screws too tightly. But the markets are under no such constraints.

“Putin may be finding that his actions have costs,” wrote Jason Karaian on the economic website Quartz. “Not the costs that world leaders threaten to impose in vague communiques, but the pain that results from thousands of nameless, faceless transactions in stock, bond and currency markets as investors flee the uncertainty and instability sown by Moscow’s own unpredictable intentions in Ukraine.”

Maps matter. So do markets.

The tension between them will help determine Ukraine’s future.

Congress Can’t Kick can on Debt Forever

There will be no showdown over the debt ceiling — at least not until 2015. Enough Republicans in the House of Representatives joined every House Democrat in raising the debt limit and giving the Treasury Department free rein, for at least 13 months, to borrow money that it can’t pay back.

The vote seems to have put a spring back into Washington’s step. Republicans can’t bring the government to a grinding halt by arguing for fiscal responsibility. What a relief.

Congressmen and bureaucrats can now devote their energy to developing more programs that spend money that the federal government can’t pay back at an even higher rate.

It’s enough to make President Barack Obama’s administration brag that the deficit has come all the way down to half a trillion dollars this year. Woo hoo. Now that’s real cause for joy. We’re going to hell in a handbasket only half as fast as we were or thought we would be.

It’s hard to blame the 28 Republicans who didn’t want to go back to the debt-ceiling salt mines. It’s not like they’ll get any good press for trying to get government spending under control. Most of the ink and airtime will be reserved for stories about the hardships that cutting off the flow of government money creates.

It’s one heck of a lot easier to kick the can down the road and deal with it later. The problem is that there will come a day, and it’s approaching faster and faster, that the can will hit a wall and stop or perhaps even ricochet back.

It might not seem like it today, but money is a finite commodity. The United States will eventually reach a point where it can no longer borrow money that it can’t repay. At that point, the people who rely on government assistance really will have a problem.

All of the rest of us will, too. Contrary to popular opinion these days, government isn’t merely a gigantic nonprofit charity that distributes money to feel-good programs that help people who in some way qualify to be considered less fortunate.

Government also provides for the common defense and redistributes funds for an infrastructure that keeps the wheels of commerce turning. As frustrating and inefficient as it seems, it is entirely necessary.

Smaller government would be better; but governments must have money to function.

Congress can keep putting off arguments over deficits and debt. The news media can continue to characterize all attempts to address the problem as mean-spirited efforts to create hardships for people who rely on assistance. But we can’t run from the problem forever.

The deficits this country continue to pile up year after year are unsustainable. If we continue, like Scarlett O’Hara in “Gone with the Wind,” to “think about that tomorrow,” then some tomorrow is going to turn into a real problem for all of us.

REPRINTED FROM JACKSONVILLE DAILY NEWS DEAR DOCTOR K: I watched a documentary about President Kennedy around the 50th anniversary of his death last year. The program mentioned that he had something called Addison’s disease.

What is that?

DEAR READER: Addison’s disease is a rare condition in which the adrenal glands do not function properly. The thumb-sized adrenal glands sit on top of the kidneys.

When working properly, they produce several hormones. But with Addison’s disease, the adrenal glands do not make enough hormones.

Hormones are substances made by one of several glands in the body. They travel in the blood to all parts of the body and can affect many types of cells and organs. The adrenal gland makes three main types of hormones: — Glucocorticoids. These are

Alcohol, marijuana and the youth of America (Part 2)

A few weeks ago, I began to show from extensive studies and evidence how alcohol use and marijuana use compare in terms of addiction, withdrawal and using motorized vehicles.

This week, I will discuss in greater detail how alcohol and marijuana compare in their effects on our minds, bodies and relationships. And then I want to conclude by addressing the most overlooked aspect of the marijuana legalization debate: its effects on the youth of America.

CNN recently reported on multiple studies on alcohol and marijuana use. Of course, we know that long-term drinking can lead to neurological and psychiatric problems, liver disease, and increased risks of many forms of cancer.

But not always apparent is the fact that compared with

steroid hormones. One type is cortisol, which helps regulate blood sugar and the body’s response to infection or stress.

— Mineralocorticoids. These help regulate sodium, potassium, blood pressure and blood volume.

— Androgens. These hormones are needed for normal sexual development and ongoing sexual function. Testosterone is the most wellknown androgen. Even the adrenal glands of females make some amount of androgens.

cigarette smoking, marijuana smoking increases by fourfold the concentration of tar chemicals, which can cause lung cancer, according to the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

Studies also show how both drinking alcohol and smoking marijuana lower inhibitions and therefore can increase risky behavior, including unprotected sex, which can lead to catching sexually transmitted diseases and having an unwanted pregnancy.

Studies on men show that

Addison’s disease usually results from autoimmunity: an attack on a part of the body by the body’s immune system. This shouldn’t happen. Our immune systems were built to attack invaders, such as invading viruses and bacteria. They were not built to attack us. But in autoimmune diseases such as Addison’s disease, something goes wrong.

Addison’s disease also can result from other conditions that damage the adrenal glands. This includes infections of the glands, bleeding into the glands or cancer that has spread to the glands.

However it is caused, Addison’s disease leads to extreme weakness, weight loss, low blood pressure, gastrointestinal problems and darkening of the skin. People said President Kennedy looked thin, pale and ill when he was young.

Fortunately, he was diagnosed

marijuana use promotes greater rates of sexual dysfunction, too, including loss of sexual pleasure and erectile dysfunction.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, excessive alcohol use kills roughly 88,000 Americans a year. Though an overdose of marijuana is highly unlikely, cannabis users have a 4.8-fold increased risk of a heart attack during the first hour after smoking. And again, as I pointed out last week, a study published in the British Medical Journal showed that marijuana users who drove within three hours of smoking nearly doubled their chances of causing a crash compared with sober drivers.

Regarding relationships, in the Psychology Today article titled “Weeding out your sig-

before his condition became lifethreatening.

Diagnosing Addison’s disease can be challenging. It usually involves measuring the blood level of adrenal hormones (such as cortisol) and of brain hormones that stimulate the adrenal glands to produce adrenal hor mones. CT scanning to check the size of the adrenal glands may also be used for diagnosis.

Treatment involves taking hormone pills for life. These pills replace the hor mones that the adrenal glands are not making. For example, doctors may prescribe hydrocortisone or prednisone pills for glucocorticoid replacement.

Androgens (such as DHEA or testosterone) may need to be taken as well.

It is important to avoid overreplacing these hormones. Doing so may cause side effects. The dose

Marijuana and relationships,” Adi Jaf fe, Ph.D. — the executive director of Alternatives addiction treatment and a lecturer at UCLA and California State University, Long Beach — demonstrated how there can be a direct relation between adolescent pot smoking and later relational conflicts, irrespective of social upbringing, personal hardships or other potential conflict exacerbations.

Jaffe explained: “A recent study conducted by Judith Brooks at NYU School of Medicine has revealed that one of those experiences, smoking marijuana (weed) may be associated with more relationship conflict later in life.

What’s amazing about this study is that the drug use here occurred earlier in life for

prescribed should be just enough to replace what the adrenal glands should have been making naturally — and no more.

People with Addison’s disease should wear a medical alert bracelet to notify medical professionals of their condition, and carry high doses of their medicine with them. That’s because people who become very sick (such as from an infection or a major injury) suddenly need more adrenal hormones than nor mal — and more than their usual daily dose. High doses of corticosteroids, in such situations, can save the life of a person with the disease.

Political Representation

Dear Sir: No one can blame veterans for bemoaning the abject failure of the system for providing medical care that has been implied or promised to them, however, it behooves all veterans to look at the big picture, for we cannot continue to turn a blind eye to the direction the nation has taken.

For over five years now many of us have been forced to sit on the sidelines as this administration with the backing of Harry Reid and his Democrat majority in the Senate ride roughshod over the basic fundamentals of our nation’s founding.

Years ago many thought the “Fast & Furious” episode would bring forth some type of plausible explanation and accountability from the President and Attorney General Holder. Instead the public got “Executive Privilege”, end of story.

And so it goes... Affordable Care Act... This has evolved into a personal law for the President that is interpreted and enforced on his own whims. Untold billions of dollars has been spent on this fiasco, yet no one is held accountable, and there is no relief to the taxpayers in sight.

Scandal... Anyone who watched the recent testimony of Lois Lerner of the IRS must be dumbfounded that this agency can hold Congress along with the citizens of this country in such utter contempt.

Is it necessary to mention “Benghazi”? Another disgraceful affair with the President and his administration repeatedly feeding the entire world a most implausible pack of lies. Yet there emerged no huge outcry against such incompetent handling of our foreign affairs.

As a twenty year Navy veteran, receiving VA care, I’m not a fan of Republican, Steve Pearce, however, I have to acknowledge that Senators Henrich and Udall have a consistent voting record that have enabled President Barrack Obama to make a mockery of our Constitution.

These two supposed representative of the people should be voted out of office as soon as possible, and as far as Steve Pearce goes, if he should lose out, I’ll not be shedding any tears.

That is why one of my biggest concerns regarding the legalization of marijuana is its pervasive impact upon younger generations.

Ruben Baler, a health scientist at the National Institute on Drug Abuse, explained that for young people, smoking marijuana also affects brain development by meddling with connections in the brain “at a time when the brain should be at a clear state of mind, and accumulating, memory and data and good experiences that should be laying out the foundation for the future.” Baler exhorted young souls by noting that every time they smoke marijuana, they’re “cumulatively impairing (their) cognitive function.

What’s going to be the ultimate result, nobody can say.”

Moreover, seven other studies show, according to CNN, that “high doses of marijuana can also cause temporary psychotic reactions, such as hallucinations and paranoia in some people. Younger people with a family history of schizophrenia are at a higher risk of developing the disorder after using

marijuana.”

Even on the White House’s own website, the for m titled “The Public Health Consequences of Marijuana Legalization” explains the health detriments of marijuana smoking: —”Marijuana use is associated with addiction, respiratory illnesses, and cognitive impairment.

—”Marijuana is also the second leading substance for which people receive drug treatment and a major cause for visits to emergency rooms.

—”Studies also reveal that marijuana potency has almost tripled over the past 20 years, raising serious concerns about implications for public health — especially among adolescents, for whom long-term use of marijuana may be linked with lower IQ (as much as an average 8 point drop) later in life.”

With the preceding health risks in mind — as well as past-month use of marijuana rates, which, among 12- to 17-year-olds, climbed from 6.7 percent in 2008 to 7.9 percent in 2011, went from 13.8 percent in 2008 among 10thgraders to 17.6 percent in 2011 and rose from 18.3 percent in 2006 among 12th-graders to 22.6 percent in 2011, and illicit drug use increases by 43 percent among Hispanic boys and 42 percent among African-American teen girls since 2008 — society must

WIPP’s Future

Carlsbad Mayor Dale Janway said it best, the WIPP accident could have long-term effects. The recent fire and minor radiation leak were not serious incidents and will be cleaned up and upgrades will be made to insure continued safety at the facility. However, a trust with the public has been breached and WIPP will find it almost impossible to get any kind of approval for expansion. I am already seeing a similar reaction like what happened after Three Mile Island in Pennsylvania (1979), Chernobyl in the Ukraine (1986) and most recently, Fukushima Daiichi in Japan (2011). Everyone gets cold feet and over reacts to the situation and wants to stop using nuclear power because of the risk. Yes, there is a risk with nuclear power but there is also a greater long term risk if we keep ‘burning’ fossil fuels. I am not against fossil fuels, but we do have to clean up after ourselves to maintain a balance with Mother Nature.

In a few weeks, maybe months, we will probably know what happened at WIPP that caused both the fire and the radiation leak. It takes time to analyze the situation for accurate data and that is what the public wants: truthful information. There will always be those distracters out there that will push misleading notions that everything is doom and gloom when it comes to anything nuclear. That is what happened after TMI and yet no one died from that accident. However, the inaccurate information that was communicated by the anti-nuclear movement and distributed by the main stream media caused a 30 year moratorium in the US on licensing more nuclear power plants. Trust was lost and the public and politicians had to be reassured that TMI would not happen again. Every nuclear power plant in the US went through safety upgrades based on “beyond basic design” and “defense in depth” paradigms to address technological failure, operator error, and/or natural calamity. These upgrades work and have prevented another TMI in the US and were also adopted by the European Nuclear Industry as well, even though they were very expensive for the utility companies to implement. So what happened at Chernobyl and Fukushima? give greater consideration to the implications of marijuana legalization (and its subsequent increases in availability, acceptability and use) upon the youth of America. Are adult smokers of cannabis really willing to risk every last one of our posterity so that they can smoke it legally?

Travis D. Waters, a former associate of drug lord Pablo Escobar, was interviewed on Fox News Channel and said: “I’m dumbfounded that states would even consider legalizing marijuana. ... (That would) be so destructive to the young adults in America.”

Just a few weeks ago, two high-school students in Olathe, Colo., were taken to a hospital after eating marijuana-infused “cherry tarts,” which are being sold at a dispensary in Denver,

according to ABC News.

And CNN reported that law enforcement in Northern California arrested an elementary-school teacher after she brought marijuana-laced food to an afterhours employee potluck dinner. As a result, one of the partygoers was hospitalized that evening with severe reactions. Another attendee was taken to the hospital the next morning because she was still under the influence. But worst of all, a 15-year-old also got sick after someone at the potluck brought leftovers home.

No wonder former Drug Enforcement Administration Administrator Peter Bensinger, who served under three presidents, said about the legalization of pot in any state: It “will damage the young people

The short version explanation is that neither country implemented the US safety upgrades.

Chernobyl nuclear power plant disaster occurred in 1986 and has been well documented as to what happened and why. The primary reason was operator error with a nuclear power plant that had a poor containment design. There was NO containment building for the reactor. I am not going to recap that event because you can find all the information you might want online. However, Fukushima has not been completely and thoroughly documented in the public domain yet, even after 3 years.

There have been many assertions but a factual assessment is still pending. The Fukushima reactors did have containment buildings and did have good safety procedures in place. In fact, all the operational reactors at Fukushima did automatically shut down (SRAM) while the earthquake was still active (before the tsunami) and the backup generators did kick in to provide electricity to keep the reactors cooled. Everything was working as designed so what happened?

The best answer to that should come from the actual plant operator’s personal actions and conversations as they happened during the first several days after the earthquake. The plant operators documented minute by minute actions taken to maintain a stable environment for all the reactors. This record has been disclosed in very detailed descriptions and the revelation for me was how wrong the information that was first dispersed by TEPCO Corporate, the Japanese Government and the international media from day one. To this day, there is still very little trust in TEPCO and Japan’s NRA (nuclear regulatory agency) even though they released all the information about what really happened. Unfortunately the narrative has been set and it will take a long time to correct all the misinformation from day one of this accident. What really saddens me was that the records show that the disaster was technically avoidable. That is as far as I will go with my assertion because anything beyond this would amount to non-scientific speculation.

So, I’ll just wait to see how the DOE communicates the WIPP incident. Here is the web site with the latest DOE/WIPP news releases: www.wipp.energy.gov Martin Kral Roswell NM

in that state. It will damage the industries in the state and put the highways in jeopardy.”

I would imagine this is just the beginning of myriad incidents that will occur to adolescents as more and more U.S. states join the legalized pot pool and marijuana-infused edibles are made in kitchens and marketed on store shelves.

That is why I mentioned in the first part of this series and note again here: I’m not making a case for or against the medicinal use of marijuana. However, it’s very difficult for me to believe that America, average healthy Americans and particularly our younger generations are going to be better off with pot’s legalization. Isn’t it time we lessened rather than increased the potential

stumbling blocks for our posterity? If we the people won’t protect future generations, then who will?

In Part 3, I’ll answer this question, asked by even many of my fellow patriots: But isn’t legalizing pot really an issue of freedom and removing government tyranny over our choices?

Input requested on Rio Hondo Restoration Draft Environmental Assessment

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) in compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 has prepared a draft Environmental Assessment (EA) on a proposal to re-route a portion of the lower Rio Hondo where it occurs on the Refuge’s South Tract (formerly referred to as the J.P. White Farm), east of Roswell, New Mexico and south of State Highway 380.

The primary purpose of the project is to enhance suitable habitat for five federally listed species that currently occur on other portions of the Refuge and provide additional habitat for two federally listed species that currently occur adjacent to the Rio Hondo channel within the South Tract of Bitter Lake NWR (proposed project area).

Within the Refuge’s section of the Rio

Hondo, six short spring runs were recently discovered, all of which harbor the federally endangered Noel’s amphipod. These spring runs (< 5 meters in length) flow from spring vents located along the Refuge’s portion of the river and ultimately flow directly back into the main channel.

The short spring runs are considered suitable habitat for the Noel’s amphipod, which requires stable water quality parameters such as water temperature, dissolved oxygen levels and salinity levels which are not currently stable within the lower Rio Hondo main channel. Consequently, the Noel’s amphipod is present only in the adjacent spring runs. The project would ultimately separate these spring runs from the current Rio Hondo flows by re-routing the river where it occurs within the Refuge boundary. The current Rio Hondo would

then become a lengthened spring run habitat that will be suitable for six of the eight federally listed species (Noel’s amphipod, Roswell springsnail, Koster’s springsnail, Pecos assiminea snail, Pecos sunflower, and Pecos gambusia) that occur on other portions of Bitter Lake NWR. In addition, this project would provide beneficial backwater habitat for the endangered Pecos bluntnose shiner that currently resides within the Pecos River.

Through the 30-day comment period, which ends April 5, Bitter Lake NWR is seeking public input in order to analyze three alternatives in the draft EA: A) no action, B) a route through an upland site, or C) a route that follows an historic Rio Hondo channel.

There are several opportunities for you to review and comment on the draft EA.

The document is posted on the refuge’s website located at fws.gov/refuge/bitter_lake. You may also contact the refuge manager at (575) 6254019 to request that a paper copy be mailed to you. The Refuge is also hosting an informational open house from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m. on March 19 at the Joseph R. Skeen Visitor Center at 4200 E. Pine Lodge Road, Roswell, NM 88201.

Your written comments can then be electronically mailed to floyd_truetken@fws.gov, hard copy mailed or delivered in person to: Refuge Manager, 4200 E. Pine Lodge Road, Roswell, NM 88201. All comments must be received no later than 4:00 p.m. on April 5, 2014.

If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact the Refuge Manager at (575) 625-4019.

Roswell Chamber of Commerce presents Sam Glenn and the ‘Gift of Attitude’ at banquet

The Roswell Chamber of Commerce will hold a banquet featuring “The Gift of Attitude,” with guest speaker Sam Glenn, at 5:30 p.m. on April 3 at the Roswell Convention & Civic Center.

“He is just a wonderful speaker,” said Chamber Executive Director Dorrie Faubus-McCarty. “I read his book, “The Big Book of Attitude,” and it was just wonderful.”

Glenn is the author of numerous books and a much sought after motivational speaker.

Glenn’s stories are gleaned from his own life experiences of successes and failures, according to his website, samglenn.com.

“Having lost a very successful business due to fire, Sam became negative, broke, depressed, jobless, and homeless — almost

overnight. It was a chance encounter, and subsequent friendship, with Zig Ziglar that eventually gave Sam a ‘Kick in the Attitude,’” the website states.

That encounter with Ziglar changed Glenn’s attitude and life for the better. Within two years, Glenn went from sleeping on the floor, to achieving dreams he once thought impossible.

“Sam’s ability to pull positivity out of adversity, has led him to become the leading voice on the topic of attitude as it relates to being a leader, dealing with change, cultivating a culture of engagement, improving customer service, and improving your personal and professional development,” the website said.

“Over the years, Sam Glenn has been the ‘go-to’

resource for hundreds of organizations who value positive people, engaged in positive action. Sam’s energetic, and often humorous, programs engage, equip and empower audiences with an attitude recharge that will improve performance in their professional, as well as personal, lives.”

“One lesson I lear ned early on is that when you doubt yourself, you defeat yourself. I had failed big and lost everything,” said Glenn. “When you fail big, you experience fear, indecision, and doubt. I was down and out in my attitude.”

But one day, a friend invited him to have a cup of cof fee and said these words which he never forgot: “Sam, you don’t have a hard knock life problem, you have an attitude problem.” At first, Sam Glenn

The fire season forecast is not good, according to presentations at Tuesday’s Firewise Workshop at ENMU-Ruidoso. Some 36 County and Mescalero residents and officials attended the latest in a series of workshops designed to increase forest health and fire protection awareness among residents and vacation home owners. March 4th session presentation team included Dan Ray [USFS Smokey Bear Ranger District], VOR Fire Chief Harlan Vincent, County Emergency Services Director Joe Kenmore and VOR Police Officer Darrell Harrison. A light dinner was provided courtesy of Schlotsky’s of Ruidoso. A YouTube video of the presentation has been posted on the ENMU-Ruidoso website, and may be viewed by residents unable to attend the March session and/or earlier presentations.

Ray’s national USFS 2014 Fire Outlook weather report was most disturbing.

Looking at the fire potential for Region 3 – Arizona, New Mexico and west Texas, continued severe-toextreme drought, above

average seasonal temperatures, and well below normal snow loads in high terrain watershed areas all contribute to potential fire conditions in this region that are worse than the 2013 fire season. Upcoming late spring and early summer weather patterns coupled with uncertain monsoon season make fire danger above normal. The time for proactive thinning and other protective measures is now.

Kenmore went onto stress local residents knowing the location of high ground in case of flood, keeping water ways clean, and identifying an evacuation route in case of fire or flood. Vincent highlighted the advanced planning steps described in the Ready, Set Go! fire action guide given to participants and available to all village residents. Officer Harrison encouraged participants to enroll in the callmeruidoso.com system.

Residents and visitors alike are reminded about the upcoming Forest Health Expo slated for Friday, April 11, and Saturday, April 12 at the Ruidoso Convention Center. Topics of immediate

interest to regional residents, second home owners, small business owners including a vendor fair and chainsaw operation demonstration. Look for defensible fire space information too at the upcoming Mountain Home Show on March 2123.

The sessions are a collaboration between the USFS Lincoln National Forest, NM State Forestry, VOR Forestry, Lincoln County, South-central Mountain RC & D, Mescalero/BIA, the Coalition, ENMU-Ruidoso, and other private citizens.

“But, as I thought about it,” Sam Glenn says, “I realized he was right. My attitude was off the charts and it was defeating me. In order for my life to get better, I needed to get better, and the starting point to getting better was with my attitude.”

Senate blocks change to military sex assault cases Roswell Daily Record

WASHINGTON (AP) — Bowing to the Pentagon, the Senate agreed after impassioned debate Thursday to leave the authority to prosecute rapes and other serious crimes with military commanders in a struggle that highlighted the growing role of women in Congress.

The vote was 55-45 in favor of stripping commanders of that authority, but that was short of the 60 necessary to move ahead on the legislation sponsored by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand. Her bill would have given the decision to take serious crimes to courtsmartial to seasoned military trial

lawyers, independent of the chain of command.

The debate and vote were the culmination of a nearly yearlong campaign to curb sexual assault in the ranks, led by female senators who have questioned whether the military’s mostly male leadership understands differences between relatively minor sexual of fenses and serious crimes that deserve swift and decisive justice.

Thursday’s rejection is unlikely to be the final word. Defeated but unyielding, Gillibrand and her allies vowed to seize the next opportunity to force another vote,

probably in the spring when the Senate starts work on a sweeping defense policy bill for the 2015 fiscal year.

“Many people said to me, ‘Kirsten, I’m going to watch this, and if it doesn’t get better in the next six months, I’m with you next time,”’ she said at a news conference.

“We will not be stopped. Look, I’ve been here long enough to see how sometimes change is painful and slow. But it happens. I’ve seen it. And we will see it again,” said Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif.

Pentagon leaders vigorously opposed the measure, as did for-

mer prosecutors and military veterans in the Senate who argued that commanders should have more responsibility, not less, for the conduct of the men and women they lead in war and peacetime.

“We can’t let the commanders walk away,” insisted Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri, who bemoaned the tenor of a policy debate that pitted her against fellow Democrat Gillibrand.

Backers of the measure insisted that piecemeal reforms have had only a limited impact on a problem that even the military has called an epidemic. Survey

results have suggested that some 26,000 women may have been sexually assaulted in the most recent accounting with thousands unwilling to come forward for fear of inaction or retribution.

“The people who don’t trust the chain of the command are the victims,” Gillibrand said.

The New York lawmaker was relentless in lobbying her colleagues, even in the final minutes of the vote. Standing in the well of the Senate, she tried to persuade a wavering Sen. Mark Kirk, an original sponsor of her measure.

New Texas abortion Girl Scouts asked to end partnership with Barbie law closes 2 clinics

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — The last abortion clinic in the vast, impoverished Rio Grande Valley closed Thursday, along with the sole remaining clinic in the 100-mile stretch between Houston and the Louisiana border, posing a tall obstacle to women seeking to end pregnancies across a wide swath of the nation’s second-largest state.

The closures in McAllen and Beaumont bring to 19 the number of clinics that have shut down since Texas lawmakers adopted tough new abortion restrictions last summer. Twentyfour clinics remain to serve a population of 26 million people, and more closures could happen after additional restrictions take effect later this year.

Lawmakers required all abortion doctors to have admitting privileges at a hospital within 30 miles, all abortions to take place in a surgical facility and all women seeking abortioninducing medications to make four clinical visits.

Those rules made it impossible for the clinics in Beaumont and McAllen to stay open, said Amy Hagstrom Miller, CEO of Whole Woman’s Health.

Anti-abortion lawmakers said the regulations are necessary to protect

OBITUARIES

Chris Johns

Services are scheduled for Chris Johns, 64, on March 9, 2014 at 11:45 A.M. at the First United Methodist Church of Roswell. Dr. Doug Mills will officiate. Chris died January 14, 2014 in Fort Worth, Texas. His ashes will be placed in the First United Methodist Church columbarium.

Chris was born July 16, 1949 in Roswell, NM to James P. Johns and Amy M. Johns. He was a member of First United Methodist Church and attended local schools in Roswell. He was in the first sophomore class of Goddard High School in 1965.

Chris graduated high school from New Mexico Military Institute and New Mexico Military Institute Jr. College in 1971 where he was commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant in the Signal Corps of the U.S. Army, stationed at Ft. Hood, Texas and Ft. Gordon, Georgia. Following his military service he attended NMSU and graduated in 1974 with a degree in business management. Chris was a leading supplies sales representative for Xerox for 22 years. He was a member of the Ar my’s 10th Mountain Division

women’s health, but abortion-rights groups have sued the state claiming the restrictions are medically unnecessary and intended to shut down all Texas clinics that offer abortion services.

“Closing our clinics hurts us. But more importantly, it hurts the communities we have served,” Miller said Thursday at a news conference. “We have done everything possible to keep our clinics open, but we are simply unable to survive.”

The Whole Woman’s Health clinics in Beaumont and McAllen had been open since 1973, when abortion was made legal by the U.S. Supreme Court’s Roe vs. Wade decision.

Joe Pojman, executive director of Texas Alliance for Life, welcomed the clinic closures because, he said, those facilities did not adequately protect patients.

The closest abortion clinic to Beaumont is in Houston. And for women in the Rio Grande Valley, the nearest clinics will be in Corpus Christi and San Antonio, a journey that means passing through immigration checkpoints that require U.S. identification or visas.

He is survived by his beloved partner in life Paula Stanley-McCrary, his parents, two brothers, Kirk W. Johns and his wife Elizabeth and James A. Johns, Paula’s daughter Jennifer Eaker and her husband Ronnie and Paula’s grandson Colton Eaker.

Winifred “Winnie” Blount

On Ash Wednesday, March 5, 2014, with her favorite rosary in her hand and her children and best friend at her bedside, Winifred “Winnie” Blount left us to be with her Lord and Savior. Two hours before she died, Winnie looked off in the distance and said: “There’s my life

NEW YORK (AP) — America’s top doll, Barbie, finds herself in controversy once again, this time over a business partnership between her manufacturer, Mattel, and the Girl Scouts.

On Thursday, two consumer advocacy groups often critical of corporate advertising tactics — the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood and the Center for a New American Dream — criticized Barbie as a flawed role model for little girls and launched a petition drive urging the Girl Scouts of the USA to end the partnership. The Girls Scouts said they would not do so.

Just a few weeks ago, Mattel incurred widespread criticism — as well as some accolades — for letting Barbie be featured in Sports Illustrated’s annual swimsuit edition.

The Girl Scouts’ partnerwith Mattel, ship announced last August, includes a Barbie-themed activity book, a website, and a Barbie participation patch — the first Girl Scout uniform patch with corporate sponsorship.

“Holding Barbie, the quintessential fashion doll, up as a role model for Girl Scouts simultaneously sexualizes young girls, idealizes an impossible body type, and undermines the Girl Scouts’ vital mission to

story right there…what a good book.” Truer words were never spoken, for that book describes a life that was rich with purpose and consequence and service.

Born on April 14, 1942 in Washington, D.C., to James R. Webb, Jr., and Mildred Webb, Winnie was the oldest of seven children. Her father’s military career took Winnie and their growing family many places, including Texas, South Dakota, Peru, Spain, New York, and Kirtland Air Force Base in Albuquerque. Moving so often and so far at such a young age, particularly with the responsibilities expected of the oldest child, no doubt sparked in Winnie the virtues of discipline, organization, and forthrightness for which she would become well-known.

Winnie graduated from Highland High School in Albuquerque in 1959. After a year in religious life in Michigan, she returned to New Mexico and enrolled in nursing school. During her course of study, Winnie was introduced to E.J. Fouratt, Jr., a captain stationed at Sandia Base who was leaving the Ar my to join the New Mexico State Police. Married in 1963, Winnie and E.J. lived first in Clines Corners and then in Santa Fe. They were soon blessed by the arrivals of E.J. Fouratt, III, and Greg Fouratt in relatively quick succession. When her husband re-joined the Army and was twice sent to Vietnam, Winnie managed to juggle her two sons, their beloved baby sister, Theresa Fouratt (Kyser), and fulltime employment as a registered nurse, a challenge that no doubt required Winnie to rely heavily on the virtues of discipline,

build ‘girls of courage, confidence and character,”’ said Susan Linn, director of the Boston-based commercial-free childhood organization.

She said the Barbie patch — targeted at 5-to-8year -old Daisies and Brownies — would transform these girls into “walking advertisements.”

“This is product placement at its worst,” said New American Dream’s executive director, Wendy Philleo, who described herself as a longtime admirer of the Girl Scouts.

“Our children are already

being bombarded by marketers’ pitches at stores, at home, online, on TV, and in school,” said Philleo, whose Charlottesville, Va.-based group tries to counter the commercialization of American culture.

The Girl Scouts’ national headquarters in New York rejected the groups’ appeal.

“Our partnership with Mattel focuses on career exploration and teaches girls about inspiring women in a fun way,” said spokeswoman Kelly Parisi.

“We stand behind this partnership, as it helps us bring to over 2 million Girl

organization, and forthrightness for which she had become well-known.

Winnie and her three children eventually settled in Roswell for good in 1970.

Winnie worked for thirteen years at St. Mary’s Hospital, first as a recovery room nurse and then as the Assistant Director of Nurses. She then served for six years in the medical office of Ramesh Nayak, M.D. Throughout her nearly thirty-year career in direct patient care, Winnie prided herself on doing everything possible to ensure that her patients – no matter their name or background or station in life – received simply the very best care she and her employer could provide. She held herself and those around her to the highest standards and the thousands of lives she touched as a registered nurse no doubt were better for it.

In 1989, having shepherded her kids through school, Winnie moved to Albuquerque to be near her aging parents. She worked as a medical record auditor for the New Mexico Medical Review Association and as a medical paralegal in a private law office. In 1998, Winnie succumbed again to the allure of Roswell – truly her favorite city of all – and moved back. She closed her career, which spanned nearly five decades, by managing the medical records office at the New Mexico Rehabilitation Center, of ficially retiring in 2007.

Throughout her life, and during the suffering that preceded her death, Winnie was fortified by her devout Catholic faith. She delighted in the achievements of her children and grandchil-

dren, especially when they arose from the virtues of discipline, organization, and forthrightness for which she had long since become legendary. And she loved all of her family – parents, siblings, children, and grandchildren – with an intensity and passion possessed only by the most special people. Hers was a good book, indeed.

Winnie is survived by sons, E.J. Fouratt, III, and his wife, Tobie; and Greg Fouratt and his wife, Anita; daughter, Theresa Kyser and her husband, Dane; grandchildren, Cody and Eric Fouratt and Chase, Cheyenne, and Garrison Kyser; brother, James R. Webb, III, and his wife, Diana; sister, Roberta Ruth and her husband, Babe; sisters, Judy, Gretchen, and Paula Webb; numerous nieces and nephews; and her two best friends, Margo Fullinwider and Meena Nayak, M.D. Winnie was preceded in death by her parents, as well as by her brother, Gregory R. Webb, and her grandson, E.J. Fouratt, IV. Winnie and her family extend special thanks to Jodie Rogers, Laura Riddle, and Stacy Maxwell, the extraordinary caregivers from Gentiva Hospice who truly touched our hearts.

Visitation is scheduled for Sunday, March 9, 2014, from 12:00-7:00 p.m. at Anderson Bethany Funeral Home in Roswell, to be followed by the recitation of the rosary at 7:00 p.m.

Funeral mass will be celebrated at St. Peter’s Catholic Church in Roswell on Monday, March 10, 2014, at 10:00 a.m., with inter ment to follow at South Park Cemetery. All funeral arrangements are

Scouts the message that they can do anything.”

That’s the essence of the Barbie uniform patch — a bright pink oval with a gold-letter slogan stitched on it: “Be anything. Do everything.”

Barbie — still slim-waisted and long-legged after 55 years — had pursued roughly 150 dif ferent careers, and she stretched her boundaries again in February by posing along with real-life supermodels in Sports Illustrated’s 50th anniversary swimsuit issue.

Goddard girls fall to Wildcats 8-1 Friday, March 7, 2014 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

LAWRENCE FOSTER RECORD ASST. SPORTS EDITOR

Roswell Daily Record

Growing pains are expected early in the season of any sport, especially in tennis.

It takes time for players to work out kinks in their strokes and get into a rhythm.

For an inexperienced team and players, the lumps can be larger and more frequent, but the improvement can be equally as rapid.

That was evident in the Goddard girls tennis match against Clovis on Thursday.

The Wildcats came away with an 8-1 victory, but the Rockets gained something every green team needs — experience.

“We put forth good effort. We still have a lot of inexperience,” Rocket coach Jerry Holm said. “We have some seniors on there that haven’t played before and we don’t have a lot of tour-

In a cost-cutting move on Thursday, Denver released Champ Bailey, the team's defensive leader who's been a fan favorite since he was acquired in a trade with Washington in 2004.

A slow start for Woods, and the tournament DORAL, Fla. (AP) — Tiger Woods only made it through 10 holes Thursday — this time because of the weather, not his back.

The debut of the new Blue Monster, and the return of Woods, received an incomplete grade Thursday when the opening round of the Cadillac Championship was halted more than two hours because of menacing thunderstorms.

Harris English was among only six players who finished the round, hitting 5-iron into the par-3 ninth hole and rolling in a 45-foot birdie putt for a 3-under 69.

The golf course and the world’s No. 1 player showed enough.

Woods, who walked off after 13 holes Sunday in the Honda Classic because of lower back pain and spasms, said he warmed up well and felt good during the delay.

His golf didn’t look all that great. He was 2-over par through 10 holes, ending the day with a wedge that came up some 20 yards short of his target, leading to a three-putt for bogey from about 55 feet.

“I’m ready to go back out tomorrow and play well,” he said.

Trump National Doral, completely overhauled by Gil Hanse, showed plenty of bite on a windy, cloudy afternoon. Jason Dufner was going along beautifully for 10 holes until he struggled to find fairways in a crosswind.

Brett Rumford began his round by hitting four shots before he put one in play. Three went into the water on the par-5 10th, and he started out with an 11.

“Mr. Trump wanted a very tough test on the Blue Monster, and I think that’s what he got,” English said.

The course average was at 73.8.

NFL

DENVER (AP) — Champ Bailey spent a decade with the Denver Broncos, making eight Pro Bowls and picking off 34 passes even with quarterbacks only reluctantly glancing his way.

This number was hard to overlook: $10 million.

In a cost-cutting move Thursday, the Broncos released Bailey, the team’s defensive leader who’s been a fan favorite since he was acquired in a trade with Washington in 2004.

There’s simply no room for loyalty in the NFL, especially with free agency about to start and with holes needing to be filled, something that became apparent to the Broncos after a 43-8 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in the Super Bowl last month.

Broncos boss John Elway called the decision to release Bailey a “difficult” one given all that

Goddard’s Martin Joyce returns a serve during his second doubles match against Clovis, Thursday.

CINCINNATI (AP) — Sean Kilpatrick scored a season-high 34 points in his final home game, and a trio of senior starters steadied No. 15 Cincinnati to a 97-84 victory over No. 20 Memphis on Thursday night that left the American Athletic Conference race tied with a game to go.

The Bearcats (25-5, 14-3 AAC) remained tied atop the firstyear league with No. 11 Louisville. The Cardinals won 84-71 at No. 18 Southern Methodist on Wednesday night and finish at home against No. 19 Connecticut. The Bearcats close the regular season at Rutgers.

With a chance to break the race open, the Tigers (22-8, 116) fell apart in the opening minutes and never fully recovered.

Cincinnati’s seniors kept the Bearcats ahead the whole game.

Kilpatrick led the way in his final home game at the school where he will end up as the No. 2 all-time scorer behind Oscar Robertson. Forward Titus Rubles had a career-high 24 points, and forward Justin Jackson added 13 points and nine rebounds.

The Bearcats piled up a season-high points for an AAC game. It was the second-most points Memphis had allowed all season.

Joe Jackson scored 21 points for Memphis, which turned the ball over 10 times in the first half, cut a 14-point deficit to one early in the second half and got overpowered down the stretch.

Kilpatrick and Jackson used their shirts to wipe tears from their eyes as they were honored at midcourt for senior night before the game. They helped the Bearcats pull away early.

Cincinnati’s biggest downfall in the last two losses — 33 turnovers. The Bearcats worked on making good decisions under pressure during practice the last few days, and were spot-on when the game began.

The Bearcats didn’t turn the ball over during an opening 18-4 run. Jackson had eight points and four rebounds in the spurt, which was set up by the Bearcats’ tight defense. Memphis had eight turnovers and went 2 of 7 from the field in the first 8 minutes.

No. 6 Villanova takes Big East, 77-70 over Xavier

CINCINNATI (AP) — Xavier’s raucous home court almost made up for the absence of the Musketeers’ starting center against No. 6 Villanova.

Almost, but not quite.

Spurred by a standing-room only crowd of 10,340 at Cintas Center, Xavier needed just 64 seconds to cut a 12-point lead to three, but the Wildcats got two free throws each from Josh Hart and James Bell in the final 19.4 seconds to escape with a 77-70 victory Thursday night.

The Wildcats, playing for the first time in the arena, got 19 points from Darrun Hilliard to clinch their first outright Big East championship in 32 years in what Villanova coach Jay Wright described as a “great, intense college basketball environment.”

“You’re not going to win championships unless you win on the road,” Wright said. “We have great respect for this league. To win this league is a hell of an accomplishment.”

Justin Martin had 20 points for Xavier (20-11, 10-8 Big East) while Semaj Christon added 18 points and Isaiah Philmore finished with 15. The Musketeers ended the regular season with consecutive losses.

The game was Xavier’s first without 6-foot-10 junior center Matt Stainbrook, who started each of the Musketeers’ previous 30 before straining the medial collateral ligament in his left knee in their 71-62 loss at Seton Hall on Monday. Stainbrook watched

Hamels setback: Won’t throw for at least a week

CLEARWATER, Fla. (AP) — Philadelphia pitcher Cole Hamels won’t throw off a mound for at least another week after feeling fatigue from his latest throwing session.

The Phillies’ opening-day starter in 2013, Hamels entered spring training behind schedule following biceps tendinitis in November. Hamels said after Saturday’s mound session, his third of spring training, he doesn’t feel 100 percent.

“I believe I threw 35 pitches,” the 30year-old left-hander said. “To my body it felt like a thousand.”

Hamels was scheduled to face hitters for the first time in a bullpen session Thursday but that was canceled. Asked whether he believed he could join the Phillies’ rotation in April, Hamels was noncommittal.

“I think that’s the last thing I’m going to think about,” he said. “Ultimately I just want to get back out and get on the mound and see how I’m going to fare there.”

Hamels said he isn’t scheduled for an MRI. General manager Ruben Amaro Jr. said the team doesn’t have any concerns over the structural integrity of Hamels’ arm.

Amaro didn’t appear to be overly worried.

“The only thing that’s a concern for me is the fact that we have to push him back,” Amaro said. “The fact that he’s throwing, not having any pain or anything like that, this is part of the rehab. Things happen. It doesn’t always go in a straight line. It’s really more a matter of fatigue. We don’t have any issues about his health, as far as his structure or anything like that. We just have to be patient.”

Hamels was 8-14 with a 3.60 ERA in 33 starts last season. A three-time All-Star and former World Series MVP, Hamels is entering the second season of a $144 million, sixyear contract, the largest in Phillies history.

Without Hamels, the Phillies likely will open the season with a rotation that includes former Cy Young Award winner Cliff Lee, right-hander Kyle Kendrick and free0agent additions A.J. Burnett and Roberto Hernandez.

New leadership, same challenges for Marlins

JUPITER, Fla. (AP) — When Miami Marlins executives Mike Hill and Dan Jennings started working together in 1995, their job was to create a scouting department for the expansion Tampa Bay Devil Rays.

“We had zero staff, zero paperwork, zero scouting manuals,” Jennings says.

“Dan’s office was a little better than mine,” Hill says. “Mine was literally a closet.”

Nearly 20 years later, limited resources remain a challenge, with Hill and Jennings now running the Marlins for famously frugal owner Jeffrey Loria. When Larry Beinfest was fired last September after 12 years with the team, Hill replaced him as president of baseball operations, and Jennings was promoted to succeed Hill as general manager.

Hill and Jennings have been with the Marlins since 2002, but now they’re in charge of a franchise where little has gone right since the team moved into a new ballpark two years. A brief, uncharacteristic spending spree by Loria became a fiasco when the subsequent roster dismantling antagonized fans, and the Marlins staggered to consecutive last-place finishes, losing 100 games last year.

Hill and Jennings will try to lead the

Marlins back to contention while drawing on diverse backgrounds. Jennings is an Alabama native who had a brief tryout as a pitcher in the Yankees organization, then paid his dues by driving up to 50,000 miles on his car every year while scouting 300 games. Hill is an Ohio native who was an outfielder, first baseman and running back at Harvard, then rose through baseball’s ranks to become the only African-American currently in charge of a major league team’s baseball operations.

“We complement each other in our strengths,” Hill says. “Our backgrounds are obviously different. Dan has more of a scouting background. I don’t consider myself completely analytical, because I have put on a uniform and played the game.

But I try to think everything through.

“We both like good players. That’s the bottom line.”

Marlins president David Samson says it’s fun to watch Hill and Jennings interact.

“It’s like family, right?” Samson says.

“They have different talents, and you put them together and you end up having a baseball operations department that can create winning.”

Loria’s tight payroll makes it difficult to win, and he has a reputation as a micromanaging owner widely blamed for constant turnover in the clubhouse and manager’s office. But Hill and Jennings both defend their boss of more than decade, saying that while he indeed is part of the decision-making process, he asks good questions that lead to a sensible consensus.

Jennings says people would be surprised to learn what Loria’s really like — as Jennings was when he first met the Marlins owner in 2002 and interviewed for a job.

“All I ever knew of Jeffrey Loria were things I had read, and it had not been very favorable, right?” Jennings says with a laugh. “Within five minutes, you would have thought we were next-door neighbors. We talked for four-plus hours and it was great. I was going, ‘How can people say these things about this guy, and this is how he comes across?”’

Over the past six years, Jennings says, six teams sought to interview him for GM position, and each time Loria denied permission. But Jennings says his long-term contract and job security with the Marlins tempered his frustration, and now he gets a shot at the job he long wanted.

Jennings’ expertise is in player evaluation and procurement, while Hill takes the lead on contracts and budget matters. But both say their duties will often overlap, and while final decisions rest with Hill, most will be made collectively.

“I use the word ‘we’ a lot, and Mike does, too,” Jennings says. “If we need to include Jeffrey, we will. There’s a lot of discussion, a lot of familiarity and a respect factor. You feel good about making a good decision.”

“We can talk openly about anything,” Hill says. “We know there are no egos. Dan can tell me what I need to hear, not what I want to hear, and I’ve always felt comfortable doing that for him. There are no secrets, no ulterior motives, and there’s no fear of alienating one another, because we know each other and have been together so long.”

Vick will become a free agent next week, and the four-time Pro Bowl pick has made it clear he’ll look for an opportunity to be a starter. One person says that if Vick doesn’t find the right fit elsewhere, he would consider staying in Philadelphia.

Both people spoke to The Associated Press on Thursday on condition of anonymity because they’re not discussing contract negotiations publicly.

Nick Foles replaced an injured Vick last year, led the Eagles to an NFC East title and was Pro Bowl MVP. Vick revived his career in Philadelphia, was the AP’s 2010 Comeback Player of the Year and started in the Pro Bowl that season.

But Vick was plagued by injuries over the next three years and lost his starting job to Foles last season after hurting his hamstring in Week 5. Foles had an outstanding year in his second season in the NFL. His passer rating of 119.2 was the third highest in history and he threw 29 touchdowns and only two interceptions in 14 games, including playoffs.

Before going down, Vick played well in his first season in coach Chip Kelly’s uptempo offense.

Kelly, general manager Howie Roseman and owner Jeffrey Lurie praised Vick’s leadership skills and the way he handled being the No. 2 guy. Vick has an excellent relationship with Foles and he’s respected in the locker room.

The New York Jets might be interested in giving Vick a chance to compete with Geno Smith. Jets offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg held that position with the Eagles when Vick had the best season of his career in 2010.

Tampa Bay, Oakland and Minnesota also could be interested in Vick, who is the class of a thin free-agent market for quarterbacks.

Vikings running back Adrian Peterson already has lobbied for his team to sign Vick. The 2012 NFL MVP tweeted that Vick would make the Vikings a playoff team.

That’s all speculation until Vick starts talking to teams next week. He’ll base his decision on several factors, including a comfortable environment for his family.

Browns agree to terms with K Cundiff

CLEVELAND (AP) — Billy Cundiff didn’t make Browns fans forget kicker Phil Dawson. However, he did make them miss him a little less.

Cundiff, who had the unenviable job of replacing Dawson last season, agreed Thursday to a one-year, $1.02 million contract with the Browns. Cundiff was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent last week, but Cleveland locked him up for another year.

After the Browns’ front office allowed the popular Dawson, a Pro Bowler the previous season, to leave and sign with San Francisco last year, Cundiff made 21 of 26 field-goal attempts and 32 extra points in 16 games. Cundiff also set a franchise record with 42 touchbacks. Of Cundiff’s 62 kickoffs, the opposing team started at or inside their own 20-year line 53 times.

The 33-year-old Cundiff, who began his NFL career with Dallas in 2002, made the Pro Bowl with Baltimore in 2010. He kicked in five games for the Browns in 2009 and has also played for New Orleans and Washington. He was in training camp with the New York Jets last summer before he was waived on Aug. 28.

but she is up and down,” he said. “You have to remember, she is just a sophomore and is still very young. When it comes together, she is going to give people problems. She is still figuring out how to win.

“Right now, she has great strokes and just needs more maturity with her game and strategy.”

Goddard’s lone win came from junior Jessica Lewis, who won her fifth singles match 6-4, 7-6 (7-3).

Bell said. “It’s a testament to how hard we’ve worked, but we can’t stop there.”

The Wildcats had no surprises, Musketeers coach Chris Mack said.

“They were what we saw on film,” he said. “This was our first game without Matt, so that was a little bit different, but we competed. We didn’t quite have enough to beat Villanova.”

Villanova last shared the title by earning a co-championship with Syracuse in 2005-06.

Xavier struggled from 3-point range finishing 6 of 23, while Villanova was 9 for 23.

The Musketeers’ regular-season finale was their second consecutive home game against a Top 10 team and the second straight to attract a standingroom only crowd.

The Wildcats, who beat Xavier 81-58 on Feb. 3 for the Musketeers’ worst loss of the season, never trailed after Arcidiacono made two free throws for a 29-28 lead with 5:11 left in the first half.

“We knew they wouldn’t go away,” Wright said. “They played without one of their best players.

We caught a break there.”

Hilliard, averaging 14.1 points per game, had 15 to help the Wildcats take a 41-36 halftime lead.

Martin, who went into the game averaging 11.2 points, scored 12 in the first half for Xavier.

Champ

the perennial Pro Bowl cornerback has brought to the team over his 10 seasons in the Mile High City.

“Without question, he’s among the best cornerbacks to ever play the game and one of the finest players in the history of the Broncos,” Elway said in a statement. “You couldn’t ask for more in a player than what Champ brought to this team. His combination of elite talent, class, leadership and competitiveness made him one of the all-time greats.”

But age and injuries had begun to catch up with one of the best shutdown cornerbacks to play the game. Bailey, a 12time Pro Bowler overall, is scheduled to make around $10 million next season, which is a lot of money for a cornerback who may be asked to switch to safety or possibly inside to the slot position.

This was a hard season for the 35-year-old Bailey as he missed 11 games because of a nagging left foot sprain originally suffered in the preseason on Aug. 17 in Seattle. Only later did Bailey reveal he sustained a Lisfranc injury.

He returned late in the season

Dufner, Hunter Mahan, Francesco Molinari and Patrick Reed also were at 3 under when the round was suspended by darkness. The 62 players who failed to finish will return Friday morning to complete the round.

Russell Henley, coming off a playoff win last week at the Honda Classic, made only one par in six holes on the back nine — two birdies, three bogeys. He was in the group at 2 under that included Masters champion Adam Scott, who is in the Nos. 1-2-3 group with Woods and Henrik Stenson.

Stenson might have hit the most memorable shot of the day — a cold shank from the middle of the second fairway that sailed at a 45-degree angle into bushes.

Scott has a chance to replace Woods at No. 1 in the world if he wins this World Golf Championship and Woods finishes worse that fifth.

Rory McIlroy got off to a blazing start with four birdies in five holes, only to end the back nine with back-to-back bogeys with a long three-putt bogey and a tee shot on the 18th that caught the edge of the water and bounded into the hazard.

That might be the most penal aspect of the new Doral. Anything hit toward some of the edges feeds toward the water, and

to help the Broncos advance to the Super Bowl, but wasn’t back to his old form — the form that had QBs scanning everywhere but his direction.

In his prime, Bailey wasn’t always very busy because opponents simply picked on his counterpart. And yet he still has 52 career interceptions, the most among active cornerbacks.

“I consider it a privilege to have coached Champ these last three years,” Broncos coach John Fox said. “There’s no doubt he played an integral role in establishing a culture of winning here.

“Aside from his natural ability, Champ set a great example with

there’s a lot of water in play.

Not even English was immune. His tee shot on the 18th found the water, and he still had 4-iron to get to the green. But he bounced back on the par-5 first hole by smashing a tee shot so far with help from the wind and the firm fairways that he had a 7-iron left from 213 yards. He hit that to 12 feet for a two-putt birdie, and he was bogey-free the rest of the way.

Dufner said he hasn’t had to think his way around a golf course this much since he was at Muirfield last year for the British Open, even though the tracks are nothing alike.

“This used to be a golf course where you grab your driver on every hole, swing for the fences and play from there,” he said. “You can’t get away with that here at Doral anymore.”

Dufner didn’t feel comfortable with driver on the 14th, so he laid back and had 236 yards left to the par 4. He hit 3-iron and made birdie, anyway. Other times, he failed to dial it back and paid the price.

“You’re not going to go through this tournament on this golf course anymore with no bogeys,” he said. “Everybody is going to be making some bogeys here and there, so pretty happy with where I’m at.”

Jordan Spieth already had three bogeys and a double bogey on the par-5 12th hole. He countered with five birdies and was even par through 15 holes. Only 19 players were under par when the round was stopped.

The 15-year veteran mentored many teammates, teaching them the tricks of the cor nerback trade. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, an impending free agent, once said he used to study film of Bailey simply because, “If you’re a cornerback, you have to be a fan of Champ Bailey. Anytime a guy does that for a period of time he did it, 14 or 15 years, you’ve got to watch him.”

Rodgers-Cromartie and Bailey were supposed to be a lockdown tandem in 2013.

Until Bailey got hurt.

So in stepped Chris Harris Jr.,

an undrafted player out of Kansas who soaked up all of Bailey’s suggestions as he waited his tur n. Once he got on the field, Harris became almost a copy of Bailey — or as much as anyone can be. Harris blew out a knee against San Diego in the divisional round, leading to Bailey’s return to his usual spot at left corner.

On his Twitter account, Harris thanked Bailey for his help, saying he was blessed to be able to “lineup opposite Champ and learn from a Great.”

Harris wasn’t alone in his praise, with linebacker Danny Trevathan posting on Twitter: “Champ. You taught me a lot!”

Michigan St. beats Iowa

EAST LANSING, Mich.

(AP) — Keith Appling scored in double figures for the first time in more than five weeks and No. 22 Michigan State looked healthier than it had in months in an 86-76 victory over No. 24 Iowa on Thursday night.

Appling showed his old aggressiveness before hip and wrist injuries and scored 12 points for the Spartans (23-7, 12-5 Big T en).

T ravis T rice, Appling’s backup, was 3 for 4 from 3-point range and had 16 points, while Adreian Payne added 14 points in his final home game.

Denzel Valentine had 13 points and nine assists for Michigan State, which looked a lot like the team that is 19-2 with a healthy Branden Dawson in the lineup.

Roy Devyn Marble had 24 points for Iowa (20-10, 9-8) which has continued to struggle on defense and

is 1-4 over the past two weeks.

Michigan State shot 58.3 percent from the field and 58.8 percent from 3point range, while outscoring Iowa 20-13 at the free throw line, something the Spartans hadn’t done in a 4-6 swoon.

The cr owd came alive early in the second half when Appling hit a free throw and drove the baseline for a reverse layup in traffic. A tough-angle bank shot by Gary Harris put Michigan State up by five points and forced an Iowa timeout.

Appling’s steal and layup made it 48-43 before a drive by Marble ended an 11-0 run. But Br eslin Center erupted seconds later when the Spartans took an eightpoint lead on a 3-pointer Appling wouldn’t have tried for several weeks while his right wrist was bothering him.

Iowa cut the deficit to

two points as Aaron White scored his first two baskets of the game, only to see Michigan State answer with a 7-0 run. Matt Costello’s four free throws sandwiched a 3-pointer by Kenny Kaminski and made it 60-51.

After the taller Hawkeyes drew within five points, Trice built the lead to 13 points on two 3s and a 10-foot floater as the shot clock expired. When Appling dribbled through a zone press and flipped an alley-oop pass to Dawson the lead grew to 7259.

Four fr ee thr ows by Trice — two after a technical foul on Iowa coach Fran McCaffery — ended all the suspense. After a double-foul skirmish that led to a long check of the monitor, Appling’s second 3 gave the crowd one more reason to stick around for postgame festivities honoring the seniors.

Duncan leads Spurs past Heat, 111-87 Green’s 41 points leads Suns past Thunder 128-122

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — T im Duncan had 23 points and 11 rebounds, and the San Antonio Spurs never trailed against the Miami Heat, weathering a sluggish thir d quarter for an intense and emotional 111-87 victory Thursday.

Tony Parker scored 17 points, including 14 in a wild first half, Boris Diaw added 16 and Kawhi Leonard had 11 for San Antonio, which has won five straight.

Chris Bosh had 24 points, LeBr on James added 19, Dwyane Wade had 16 and Michael Beasley 11 for Miami.

James, who ditched the protective mask he was wearing early in the first half, was hounded by Leonard into shooting 6 for 18.

James got rid of the mask that protected his br oken nose with four minutes left in the first quarter. He missed his first two attempts sans mask, tossing up a wild 14-footer that banged off the front of the rim and backboard, then botching a reverse layup. His first mask-free basket was a 5foot running floater over Leonard with 6:26 left in the half.

The first home game for the Spurs against the Heat since losing a heartwr enching, seven-game NBA Finals brought out a raucous sold-out crowd and sparked high emotions fr om both teams.

Players dived recklessly for loose balls and yelled at of ficials, while San Antonio coach Gr egg Popovich often screamed at his own players.

The Spurs opened the fourth quarter on a 13-6 run, r etur ning to the breakneck attack that led to a 17-point lead in the first half. Duncan’s 18foot jumper gave San Antonio a 99-85 lead with 3:00 remaining, drawing a fist-pounding of the scorer’s table by Manu Ginobili as he waited to enter the game.

six games last month, driving unrestrained into the paint. He scored four layups in the first six minutes, curling in a twisting layup against Bosh and later burying a shoulder into the center’s chest as they ran down the lane to create enough space for a leaning layup.

“Oh, my chest is burning,” Parker said at the scor er’s table during a timeout. “Thir d game back.”

Parker played all but the final two minutes of the first quarter, going 5 for 6 from the field in scoring

10 points and dishing out three assists.

The Spurs scor ed 22 points in the paint in the opening quarter, helping them shoot 79 per cent from the field in building a 37-22 lead. San Antonio shot 63 percent from the field in the first half in taking a 62-51 lead.

The Heat kept the Spurs out of the paint in the second half, to the point Popovich screamed, “Tony!

Attack!” after his All-Star point guar d walked the ball up midway through the third period.

Miami tur ned up the

heat defensively, closing quickly on every pass, forcing the Spurs to give up the ball more quickly than they wanted. San Antonio was 7 for 22 from the field in the third quarter. Miami was 10 for 18 in the third quarter, with James, Wade and Bosh scoring six points each.

Miami went on an 8-2 run four minutes into the third quarter to pull within 69-61, only the second time in the previous 20 minutes San Antonio did not lead by double figures.

Bosh and Wade had two baskets apiece in the run.

PHOENIX (AP) — Gerald Green scored 25 of his career-high 41 points in the third quarter and the Phoenix Suns erased a 16-point deficit to beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 128-122 on Thursday night.

Markieff Morris added 24 points, including two free throws with 24.4 seconds to play. Goran Dragic scored 22, including six of the Suns’ final 12 points after Oklahoma City led 118-116.

Russell Westbrook scored a season-high 36 for the Thunder, who would have pulled a half-game ahead of Indiana for the NBA’s best record with a victory.

Kevin Durant added 34.

Green’s outburst fell one point shy of a Suns record for most points in a quarter set by Stephon Marbury in 2002. His career-best eight 3-pointers also was one shy of the franchise mark.

It was Phoenix’s second 40-point performance in four games. Dragic had 40 against New Orleans on Friday.

In the third quarter, Green was 7 of 11, including 6 of 6 on 3s. Fouled on a 3-pointer with 6.9 seconds left, Green missed one of the three free throws or he would have tied Marbury’s franchise record.

After trailing by as many as 16 in the quarter, the Suns scored the final 14 points of the third to lead 101-98 entering the fourth. The run reached 21-3 when Marcus Morris’ 3 put Phoenix up 108-101 with 9:34 to play.

But Westbrook brought the Thunder back. He made three 3s, the last to tie it at 116 with 4:34 to play. Ibaka’s dunk put Oklahoma City back on top, 118-116, with 4:10 to go.

Dragic tied it with a driving layup with 2:22 left, then his reverse layup gave the Suns a 118-116 lead with 2:02 left. He was fouled on the play but missed the free throw, one of 10 misses from the line by Phoenix. Oklahoma City was 19 of 19.

Markieff Morris scored to make it 122-118 with 1:11 left, then Durant cut it to 122-120 with 1:01 to go. Dragic’s 16-footer boosted the lead to 124-120 with 45.9 seconds remaining. Durant scored again to make it 124-122 with 40.9 seconds left. But Morris made two free throws, then twin brother Marcus made two more with 5.6 seconds to go.

Westbrook had a steal and dunk on the Suns’ opening possession and had two more steals and layups en route to a 13-point first quarter. Oklahoma City led by as many was 13 in the opening quarter and was up 41-32 after one.

It was the Thunder’s highest-scoring quarter of the season and highest-scoring period for a Phoenix opponent.

The Suns opened the second quarter with a 7-2 spurt to cut it to 43-38. The Thunder stretched the lead to 10 moments later and were up 63-54 on Durant’s acrobatic driving layup.

Phoenix outscored Oklahoma City 7-2 over the final minute of the half, cutting the Thunder lead to 65-61 on Channing Frye’s rebound basket at the buzzer.

The Thunder opened the second half with a 12-5 run to lead 77-66 after Westbrook’s 3. Phoenix cut it to 77-72 and was down 83-77 when Green made two free throws with 6:38 left in the quarter.

Queen, Adam Lambert to Author makes pitch for embark on summer tour saving SS United States NEW YORK (AP) — Adam Lambert has never paid attention to the haters, and he won’t start now as the lead singer for the rock band Queen on their upcoming summer tour.

“You just can’t focus on that crap, especially in today’s day and age, the Internet, and everybody has an opinion and a comment. That’s not why we do this,” Lambert told The Associated Press.

Lambert first performed with Queen in 2009 when he was a contestant on “American Idol,” where he placed second.

The band and Lambert have since performed together, including last year’s iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas and a European tour in 2012. They sang such hits as “We Are the Champions” and “We Will Rock You.” Still, Lambert has to stand in the shadow of the singer many regard as one of the greatest to front a rock band.

“At first it was a little daunting when we did our first incarnation of this. I definitely felt apprehensive. Freddie Mercury is one of the greatest singers that ever lived,” Lambert said.

“It’s such a treat for me to get on stage and pay my respects, and pay tribute to one of my favorite singers ever, and to sing some of the greatest music ever written,” Lambert added.

The 19-date U.S. tour kicks off June 19 in Chicago. It wraps up July 20 in Washington, D.C. Tickets go on sale Friday.

news conference Thursday and, in the interviews that followed, defended their choice as Mercury’s successor. “’American Idol’ is a long way in the past for Adam now. He’s a solo artist and well-established. And also we are established as a partnership ... if you concentrate on the negative you’re not going to get anywhere. It’s very important to have focus, and you play to people who want to hear us,” May said.

“Good is good, and quality is quality,” Taylor added on Lambert’s ability.

May said the band will pay tribute to Mercury in the show. But “The mere fact that we’re playing songs that Freddie wrote is a tribute,” he said.

The guitarist also touched on releasing some old recordings of Freddie Mercury, including a collaboration with Michael Jackson, recorded in 1983. Mercury died in 1991; Jackson in 2009.

“I was surprised that there was a little bit more in the can that we had overlooked for a long time, so we have a few songs which we’re working on right now.

Freddie songs as fresh as yesterday,” May said. “It’s really amazing. We’re all playing together, and I think people will enjoy it.

While Mercury has been gone for 23 years, his legacy has lived on. The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001, has sold hundreds of millions of records worldwide, and has a longstanding musical, celebrating the band’s catalog that has played on London’s West End for 12 years.

Lenfest that also covered some maintenance and preservation costs.

The group hopes to raise enough money to restore the exterior of the ship and convert the interior, which covers roughly 500,000 square feet, into a multiuse space for restaurants, retail stores and a museum and educational center.

Susan Gibbs, the granddaughter of the ship’s designer and director of the conservancy, said the conservancy also is looking for a per manent berth for the ship on the east coast. New York is a leading candidate, she said.

The exterior refurbishment alone, which would involve moving the huge vessel to a drydock, would cost an estimated $40 million to $60 million, Gibbs said.

Said Macaulay: “It’s battered. It’s beaten, but it’s all paint so it’s superficial.”

the T itanic and nearly 10,000 tons heavier, it carried 1 million passengers across the ocean, including four U.S. presidents and a long list of other celebrities, before it was retired in 1969 partly because of the increasing popularity of air travel.

Macaulay, whose books include “The Way Work” and Things “Cathedral,” delivered a lecture about the ship at the Free Library of Philadelphia and planned to attend the opening of a related exhibition at the city’s Independence Seaport Museum.

Macaulay is working on a new book that he said will trace the evolution of passenger ships through the building of the SS United States and describe his experiences as a boy sailing on the ship to a new home on another continent.

The nonprofit SS United States Conservancy purchased the ship in 2010 with $5.8 million from Philadelphia philanthropist H.F. “Gerry”

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Best-selling author and illustrator David Macaulay made a case Thursday for saving the SS United States, a oncemajestic ocean liner that has been deteriorating for years at a pier along the Delaware River.

It’s “a unique object, a symbol of time in American history that we’ve sort of long since passed,” Macaulay said in a telephone interview.

“It’s important to keep it intact visually.”

Macaulay, who crossed the Atlantic Ocean on the SS United States with his family as British immigrants in 1957, said he is “trying to draw attention to it in any way I can.”

The nearly 1,000-foot, steam-powered vessel, with its giant twin chimneys painted red, white and blue, was launched in 1952. It still holds the record for the fastest trans-Atlantic voyage by a passenger ship and it is the largest ocean liner ever built in the United States.

Today when I saw the little girl, the only parts of her in the car were her lower legs and feet. Her mother, father and grandmother allow her to do this.

It scares me because when I was a child, I fell out of a moving car, and I still have scars on my arms because of it.

I am not close to these neighbors, so can you help me with some advice?

SCARED FOR HER IN FLORIDA

DEAR SCARED FOR HER: Seat belt laws have been enacted to protect children from this kind of ignorance or negligence.

Children (and adults) who fall from moving vehicles can die of their injuries, or be crippled for life.

You should report your concerns about this to the police to ensure the little girl’s safety. The next time you see her hanging out the car window, immediately call 911. The dispatcher will determine which agency should be notified. ##### DEAR ABBY: My ex-wife, “Kristy,” and I have been divorced for five years and she has since remarried. We have a 15-year-old daughter, “Taryn.”

When it’s Kristy’s birthday, Mother’s Day, etc., Taryn looks to me to help out with gifts for her mother. I have asked my daughter if she talks to her stepfather about this, and she says no.

I feel it isn’t my duty to do this.

It should be the current husband who is assigned this task. I want

COMICS

Taryn to be happy giving her mother a gift, but I am not comfortable with this. Am I thinking right? If so, what should I say to my daughter?

UNCERTAIN IN KENTUCKY

DEAR UNCERTAIN: Explain this to your daughter just as you have written it to me.

Taryn isn’t a little girl. I presume she has chores to do and earns an allowance. If she wants to give her mother a gift or a card, she should pay for it. But if she wants to spend more money for it than she has, she should ask her stepdad to chip in. ##### DEAR ABBY: I’m a 15-year-old girl. I find it very hard to be a teenager where I live. It seems most of my friends have boyfriends, but most of my friends have gone very far with their boyfriends. I’m too scared to.

I don’t feel ready for something like that.

I kind of want a boyfriend, but

it’s hard to find one because most guys want to go too far. I don’t want to talk about this kind of stuff with my mom. I hope you get the chance to answer.

Family Circus

TEEN OUT WEST

DEAR TEEN:

I’m sorry you can’t discuss this with your mother because if you did, she could share her experience with you, and that’s a valuable asset to have.

I have always advised that when people start dating, they do it in groups, which takes away a lot of the pressure of feeling you have to do anything you don’t want to do.

If that ever happens to you, you have the right to say “no,” “stop!”

“I’m not ready for that,” etc. Some girls are reluctant to say it loudly and clearly, which is a big mistake.

Most men understand that no means no — but if a girl doesn’t state it clearly, they think it’s OK to continue. If you follow this advice, your problems will be greatly minimized.

FROM HELOISE

KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Heloise: When I paid for my massage, the masseur seemed offended that I OMITTED A GRATUITY. He is the proprietor of the establishment, and it has always been my understanding that it is not necessary to tip the owner for services, whether it’s a barber, bartender or any other business owner. Right or wrong?

John D. in Virginia

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

It used to be the case that you did not tip the business owner, but according to my good friend Peggy Post (etiquette expert), times have changed, and most business owners are tipped today — and most will accept. What should you do?

Tip 15 percent to 20 percent for services, regardless of who provides them (employee or business owner). Always tip at your own discretion and based on how pleased you are with the services you were provided during that visit.

#####

Dear Heloise: The last time my 5-year -old grandson’s toy box needed cleaning, I thought about asking him to pick out toys to donate (instead of me picking). I dumped all of his toys on the floor. At first, he was keeping everything. I reminded him that some kids don’t have any toys. He picked a toy, and this time, after giving it much thought, he said, “Donate,” and put it in the box. Soon he was really evaluating the toys, and in no time our box was full. At the end, I sat him down and asked if he would give away just one toy that he wanted to keep. He said “OK” (after thinking really hard). I was so proud of him! What a wonderful way to teach him about charity.

K.W., via email Dear Heloise: I am getting ready to move, and in removing pictures from the walls, I noticed that there are holes from nails and mirror brackets.

Take a 2-inch piece of painter’s tape, punch a hole in the tape and place the hole/tape over the hole in the wall. Take spackling (or whatever you are patching with) on your finger or putty knife and spread it over the hole, then wipe off the excess. Let sit for a few minutes, then remove the tape. You may have to repeat for larger holes, as the spackling may shrink.

T.P., via email Dear Heloise: Just read that question a reader had about “preserving” an autograph on a shirt when the shirt was washed. The first thing that came to my mind is to embroider the signature. You can do a simple “running” stitch in your choice of embroidery thread, and you’d have that signature for the life of the shirt.
