WIPP officials report second radiation leak RANDAL SEYLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

New air sampling data from the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant indicates there has been another small radiation release.

Department of Energy officials say a monitoring station picked up elevated radiation readings around the plant near Carlsbad on March 11, nearly a month after a Valentine’s Day leak contaminated 17 workers and shut down the only repository for toxic waste from the nation’s nuclear bomb-building program.

Engineers say they believe the

contamination is from previous deposits on the inner surface of exhaust ductwork.

The latest radiation release has no expected health impacts to workers, the public or the environment, according to a news release from the Department of Energy. Samples collected at the same monitoring station, both prior to and for 72 hours after this release, have indicated background levels.

Data received recently show a single air sample from the ventilation exhaust recorded 61 disintegrations per minute of americium on a sample collected the evening of March 11, according to

the DOE report.

This is expected, given the amount of contamination captured by the WIPP ventilation system during the Feb. 14 radiation release event.

The independent Carlsbad Environmental Monitoring and Research Center is reporting similar environmental sampling results, according to the report.

According to the Center’s recent news release, CEMRC’s analysis continues to reflect that the air around the WIPP site is safe and poses no harm to the environment or the public.

Officials say occasional lowlevel releases are anticipated, but

they should be well within safe limits.

The DOE release also reported that another set of 20 urine sample results for WIPP employees has come back negative. To date, 135 employees have been entered into the WIPP bioassay program, including many who requested testing.

At present, more than 100 urine samples have been analyzed and all results have been negative, the release states.

DOE officials say additional results will be posted as they become available. All results to date indicate risk levels to workers are well below occupational and health standards.

WIPP officials will hold another town hall meeting at 5:30 p.m. today in Carlsbad and the WIPP officials will meet with the Artesia City Council at 7 p.m. on Monday to update city officials on the recovery activities, according to the DOE release.

The Associated Press contributed to this report.

A medical marijuana distributor could legally open its doors at an undisclosed location in Roswell by next week, following a state inspection.

Compassionate Distributors of Ruidoso has moved into a building, installed extensive security systems and is ready for a final inspection by the state Department of Health.

The DOH has scheduled the inspection for next week, said co-owner Mandy Denson.

“I’m excited. As soon as they come down and inspect us, and give us the green light, we’re ready to go,” Denson said.

The distributor was granted a city business license by applying as a professional medical office of alternative health care, Denson said.

In December, City Coun-

cilors debated whether to remove a special-use designation in certain business and commercial districts that would have required extra approvals for medical marijuana distributors.

“The way they resolved it, in the end, was they voted to remove language for the special use condition for medical marijuana,” Denson said. “It means I can apply in any general-use categories.”

The move paved the way for Compassionate Distributors to proceed with plans to open the satellite location.

Last month, the DOH also announced a plan to add 12 more distributors in the state to meet an increasing demand. The state has 23 licensed nonprofit distributors, mostly in the northern region.

Under a new proposal, producers would be able to

Investigators seek Hatch Act violation filed against Snyder help in arson cases

Eleven vehicles have been set ablaze within the past several months in Roswell. Both the Roswell Police Department detectives and the Roswell Fire Department fire investigators are soliciting the public’s assistance in locating the person or persons responsible for the vehicle fires.

The most recent vehicle fire occurred on the 1000 block of West Summit on Tuesday.

Both the police and fire departments urge fellow community members to call the Roswell Police Department if they see anything suspicious.

Chaves County sheriff candidate Britt Snyder is facing a federal Hatch Act inquiry, instigated by an anonymous complainant who has charged that he has violated the federal elections rule.

The Hatch Act restricts the political activity of employees who work with programs financed in whole or part by the federal government.

Sheriff’s office candidates have been targeted frequently by opposing candidates in recent years.

Though it has existed since 1939, the rule was revised in 2012, in a bi-partisan effort to cut down on

Republican Women host magistrate, district judge candidates at luncheon JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

Hundreds attended the Chaves County Republican Women luncheon Wednesday to hear from 5th Judicial District and magistrate judge candidates.

Though sitting judges were limited in what they could discuss, the speakers shared their backgrounds and talked about their personal thoughts about serving on the bench.

Attendees also included several newly elected city

councilors, Mayor Dennis Kintigh and former Mayor Del Jur ney, and many state and county elected officials. Candidates for other county offices also visited with the luncheon guests.

Fifth Judicial Judges Jim Hudson and Ray Romero, both unopposed, spoke about their experiences.

He shared two impressions he’s formed as a new judge.

“The first is that the 5th Judicial District is comprised of people who are incredibly hard-working,” Hudson said. “Although I did litigation for many years, I never really had a true appreciation for how hard the people work.”

“I am not paid, in any way, shape or for m, by the federal gover nment,” Snyder said Wednesday.

“The complaint filed against me, as far as I’m concerned, is a waste of time. They’ll investigate it and clear me. It’s a non-issue.”

State looks to lure Tesla battery factory A2 Thursday, March 20, 2014

SANTA FE (AP) — Excited by economic prospects, New Mexico officials are hoping to avoid what happened six years ago when Tesla Motors opted against establishing an auto manufacturing plant in the state.

They’re discussing a variety of options in an effort to convince Tesla to build a lithium-ion battery factory here, the Santa Fe New Mexican reports.

New Mexico is one of four

GENERAL

states identified as finalists for a lithium-ion battery factory that would supply the company’s Fremont, Calif., assembly plant. Others are Arizona, Nevada and Texas.

That possibility has generated excitement among business leaders and elected officials.

But it isn’t the first time the state has been excited by prospects involving Tesla.

In February 2007, Telsa announced that it would build a $35 million auto manufacturing plant in New Mexico. At a news conference with then-Gov. Bill Richardson, Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the company would build the plant on Albuquerque’s west side.

Construction on that 150,000-square-foot plant was scheduled to begin that spring.

Musk said his company

would produce at least 10,000 cars a year at the Albuquerque plant and that the first cars would roll out in the fall of 2009.

But the plant never opened after Califor nia gave the company a sweeter tax-incentive deal.

Richardson’s Economic Development Secretary Fred Mondragon, who announced Tesla’s decision in 2008, expressed some bitterness at the time in his

Roswell Daily Record

statement: “This decision

by Tesla is not surprising given the recent instability of its management,” he said. “Still, it is unfortunate that Tesla backed away from its commitment to the state.”

Gov. Susana Martinez said this time she would call a special legislative session if needed to secure a deal.

Asked about the state’s prior experience with Tesla,

Martinez’s spokesman Enrique Knell did not answer directly Tuesday.

“Tesla is a fantastic company, and we would certainly be thrilled and excited to have them come to New Mexico,” he said in an email. “We continue to have regular conversations and are competing hard to bring these new jobs and this forward-looking company to the state.”

New Mexico enrolls 103K in Medicaid Library to host

SANTA FE (AP) — About 103,000 low-income New Mexicans have enrolled in Medicaid since the state expanded who qualifies for the health care program, according to the latest figures from Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration.

The state opened enrollment in October and medical services started for new recipients in January. With the expansion, Medicaid provides health care for nearly 30 percent of the state’s population.

Human Services Department spokesman Matt Kennicott said the pace of enrollment suggests that the agency will meet or exceed its projections that about 130,000 low-income adults will gain medical coverage during the first year of the Medicaid

STATE BRIEFS

Conviction overturned because of video testimony

SANTA FE (AP) — The state Court of Appeals has overtur ned the seconddegree murder conviction of an Albuquerque man for killing a 65-year -old woman who traveled to New Mexico to start writing a book.

The court ruled Monday that Bruce Schwartz’s constitutional rights were violated because four prosecution witnesses testified using an Inter net video connection. The court said his right to confront the witnesses was denied.

Schwartz was sentenced to 15 years in prison for the death of Martha McEachin, who left Califor nia in March 2008 to write a novel in Mexico. She met Schwartz in Albuquerque and lived in his apartment.

McEachin’s decomposed body was found in May 2008 without identification.

Schwartz was arrested two years later.

The court remanded the case for a new trial.

The federal government initially is covering the cost of health care for those who enroll.

New Mexico has among the highest uninsured rates in the nation, with nearly one in five of its residents lacking medical coverage Under new Medicaid guidelines, an adult with two children can qualify for Medicaid with earnings of about $27,300 a year. That’s roughly 138 percent of the federal poverty level.

Las Cruces police say 22year-old Marisela Beltran is being held on suspicion of intentional child abuse.

They say Beltran’s 6month-old son was transported by ambulance to Memorial Medical Center about 5 a.m. Tuesday because he was crying and vomiting.

Beltran initially told hospital staff her baby slipped out of a car seat March 13 and struck his head on the ground.

Detectives say the baby appeared developmentally delayed and was unable to support his head as would be expected from a child his age. That led them to believe he was likely unable to wiggle his way from a car seat.

Investigators say Beltran allegedly shook him twice on Monday night.

The growth of Medicaid has been much greater than health coverage enrollment through the exchange.

About 15,000 New Mexicans have signed up for health insurance plans through a federally operated exchange from October through February.

But the federal appeals court said the trial’s outcome likely would have not been different.

A jury convicted the three in August 2012 of making false statements.

They were acquitted of most of the charges that they sold weapons to Mexican drug cartels.

Gov. Susana Martinez was in Albuquerque Tuesday to highlight Tax Help New Mexico, which offers free tax preparation for anyone over 65 and New Mexicans with an annual income of less than $52,000.

‘Blood on the Talon’ author

Col. Ozzie Gorbitz, author and retired Air Force officer, will be at the Roswell Public Library at 2 p.m. on Saturday, speaking about his book, “Blood on the Talon.”

Gorbitz has written a history of the 139th Airborne Engineer Battalion, which was an elite group of brave and spirited airborne troopers who fought the Nazis in the Ardennes and along the Rhine in World War II.

Forged in the humid training fields of Camp Mackall, N.C., the 139th Airborne Engineer Battalion was part of the 17th Airborne Division, and these combat-hardened paratroopers fought through bitter cold and withstood the Fuhrer Begleit Brigade. They also crash-landed in gliders east of the Rhine River.

The 139th beat back an armored onslaught and helped to open the gates into the heartland of Germany for the Allies.

The book is a narrative history of the 139th Airborne Engineer Battalion from formation in 1943 to the end of World War II, according to the website, yourbook.com.

Gorbitz will speak in the Bondurant Room at the library, and the Friends of the Roswell Public Library will provide refreshments while the author sells and signs copies of his book.

The event is free and the public is invited to attend. For more information, call the library at 6227101.

Toyota payment could be glimpse into GM’s future DETROIT (AP) — General Motors, beware.

Wednesday’s announcement that Toyota will pay $1.2 billion to avoid criminal prosecution for hiding information in a recall case could be a glimpse into your future. It’s also a warning to anyone selling cars in the U.S.: Although the federal government’s road-safety watchdog doesn’t have big fangs, the Justice Department does.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s maximum fine for hiding information is $35 million, a pittance to automakers. But the Justice Department can reach deeper into your wallet and hurt your reputation with damning public statements.

Shortly after the announcement, Attorney General Eric Holder issued an apparent war ning to GM and other automakers, saying the Toyota deal was “not necessarily the only time we will use this approach.”

General Motors Co., which is facing a federal criminal probe over delays in recalling small cars with a deadly ignition switch problem, has many parallels to the Toyota case.

Toyota got into trouble for withholding information from NHTSA about floor mats that can trap gas pedals and make cars accelerate wildly, and for concealing a problem with sticky gas pedals that can cause unwanted acceleration.

boost crops to keep up with a growing number of patients.

New Mexico was the first in the nation to have its health department license and regulate a nonprofit medical marijuana distribution system.

Compassionate Distributors operates its Ruidoso shop from a professional business center.

Licensed patients often drive long distances from across Southeast New Mexico to purchase marijuana and other products that contain marijuana.

The Roswell shop will have several security and surveillance systems, Denson said.

Candidates Continued from Page A1

According to court records, the company recalled some models for the floor mats while knowing that others had the same problem.

At GM, the company has admitted knowing about the ignition-switch problem for more than a decade, yet it failed to recall 1.6 million small cars until last month. During the wait, at least a dozen people died in crashes because the faulty switches moved out of the run position, disabling power steering and brakes. Air bags also didn’t inflate.

“We now see what GM may be facing,” said Peter Henning, a law professor at Wayne State University in Detroit and a former Justice Department prosecutor.

“If you have comparable conduct inside the company, the government is going to come down hard.”

The Toyota payment changes the model for regulating auto safety in the U.S. Before Wednesday, safety issues had been almost the exclusive domain of NHTSA. Now, the government has raised the stakes with criminal actions, Henning said.

“GM has to be concerned what kind of a hit there is going to be to the bottom line,” said Henning, who predicted that GM’s penalty could rise toward $2 billion because its recall delays lasted longer than Toyota’s.

“We’re going to have an excellent security system that’s going to be uploaded with full camera surveillance and buzz-in door systems,” Denson said. “That’s important for the Department of Health, to ensure the safety of the patients and everyone. And that’s one of the last things we’re working on. It’s being done this week.”

The security system should be completed by the time the DOH performs its final inspection, she said.

Denson preferred not to disclose the location until after final approval, she said.

“I think it’s more appropriate to keep that location quiet,” Denson said.

“Once we do have our approval, we plan on putting signs up, so people

more than 12,000 and 89,000 filings. Each filing is sent to a judge, Hudson said.

“Over 100,000 people came through the courthouse in Chaves County last year,” Hudson said.

Chaves County also had the secondhighest number of jury trials last year, at 204. That meant each of the 10 judges had an average of 20 jury trials, he said.

“Fairness in the judiciary is paramount,” Hudson said. “When people come into court, they need to know the judge will be fair and impartial. They need to know they will be heard and their case will be decided on the evidence and the law.

“The biggest misapprehension I’ve run into as a new judge is that friends think I will hear their case. But it’s not something I can do or will do. Judges take an oath to be fair and impartial.”

Romero, who serves in Carlsbad, began by talking about his faith, his wife and his daughters. He is a native New Mexican and attended the University of New Mexico. He earned a law degree from the University of Dayton in Ohio and moved to Carlsbad.

He became an assistant district attorney after working first for a technical assistance contractor for WIPP. He spent 18 years with the district attorney’s office before becoming a judge.

“Over that time, I prosecuted every type of case there is,” Romero said. “It really helped me in becoming a judge.

“From a very young age, I had an urge to achieve justice. To right wrongs that had been done to people. I think that’s what drew me initially to becoming an assistant district attorney and has driven me to strive to become a judge.”

Romero said he appreciated every vote possible.

Magistrate Judge K.C. Rogers, who was appointed by Martinez last year, has a background in law enforcement. He lives in Dexter with his wife. He has two adult daughters.

“Years ago, there was a magistrate judge who told me I needed to consider it, needed to look at it,” Rogers said.

At the time, he was an undercover police officer for the New Mexico State Police. He was dedicated to doing everything he could to keep the community safe and keep drug

are aware of where we’re located.”

Denson also said she plans to display public signs and provide information and resources for people about where they can contact physicians to obtain medical cannabis cards, she said.

In the meantime, local patients are excited about the possibility of greater accessibility to their medication.

“We’ve already been telling our patients,” Denson said. “We’re hopeful the Department of Health approves our request for this satellite location.”

Patients in Hobbs, Carlsbad and other areas can more easily access the location, but Compassionate Distributors plans to continue monthly deliveries to those areas, Denson said.

dealers out, he said.

But he went into criminal investigations for the state in the southeast region until he retired. He knew though, he was not done serving the public.

That’s when he began an alternative sentencing system with the help of Judges Eugene De Los Santos and Robert Corn.

The highly recognized program, run by retired criminal investigators and narcotics agents, has served 44,000 people and spread to other states, he said.

“I left that when I was appointed to this job,” Rogers said. “I applied for this position because I was not done yet. I competed with some other gentlemen and was given this job by the governor. I am qualified. I have a past that proves that I’m qualified.

“Judge (John) Halvorson and I do things every day to make things better, to make it more efficient, to make sure people are treated properly in our courts. And if you give me the opportunity, I will continue to do that,” Rogers said.

Candidate Bobby Arnett said there were four reasons to vote for him.

“I ask you to vote for me,” Arnett said. “I am from here. I’m educated. I’m involved.

I’m experienced and I would appreciate your vote.”

Arnett is a Roswell native who graduated from New Mexico Military Institute in criminal justice, transferred to UNM and majored in criminology, and studied legal research and writing at Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell.

“I feel that in order to protect our conservative values, we need to participate in the elections and vote whenever possible,” Arnett said.

“When I heard Judge De Los Santos was retiring, I heard a call to run for magistrate judge. I knew I had the qualifications and the ability, and I decided to pursue this goal and follow the example of Judge De Los Santos, by being a compassionate judge.”

Arnett has worked at a successful law practice for many years, which has exposed him to a variety of cases.

He said he also has a lifetime of business experience in helping his family with wholesale, manufacturing and retail. He has served as a vice president of a company since 1993. He is also involved in the community, church, schools, the Boy Scouts and other organizations.

GOVERNOR WANTS NM TO STOP COLLECTING UNION DUES

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Contract talks with state employee unions are at an impasse because New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez wants the state to stop collecting union dues through withdrawals from employees’ paychecks, the governor said.

The Republican governor raised the issue this week at a real estate luncheon in Albuquerque while criticizing teachers unions for opposing her administration’s policy initiatives, the Journal Albuquerque reported.

Teachers’ union dues are withdrawn under contract provisions negotiated at the local level, but Martinez is pressing for an end to dues withdrawals for state

employee unions.

“The state collects them (dues) for the unions, and then we cut a check to the unions who then use that money against reform,” Martinez told business leaders.

According to Martinez, the unions use the dues money to attack her administration.

At issue is the practice of withdrawing dues of about $13 per paycheck from workers who do not participate in the union but are represented by the union in contract negotiations, said Nivia Thames, deputy director of the State Personnel Office.

Those payments, known as “fair share” contributions to the union, are withdrawn with the employees’ consent.

“The state is opposed to

this practice and has not included ‘fair share’ in its last, best offers to (American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees) and (Communication Workers of America),” Thames said in a statement. “We made this decision because of the unfair effect ‘fair share’ has on non-union employees (who) have complained that they do not want to pay money to the unions when they are not members and they are not receiving any benefit.”

But spokesman Miles Conway of AFSCME calls Martinez’s desire to end dues withdrawals a “declaration of war.” He said public employees will actively fight that cut through the arbitration process.

OPINION

Economic Dynamics: Create thousands of jobs, gain a few

We speak of the “New Mexico economy” as one thing, a monolith of sorts. It is not. Nor is the U.S. economy one thing. For the nation, though, statistical constructs such as gross domestic product provide an indication.

A new book, “GDP: A Brief but Affectionate History,” by Diane Coyle, tells the tale. The nation is big enough that the numbers mean something, however imperfect. But for New Mexico, there just aren’t enough numbers. Our population is modest (2.1 million) and dispersed.

The conventional wisdom tries to stick with considering the state as a whole. Major exceptions exist. The north-south divide dates to well before statehood, the new “New Mexico: A History” reports. “Southern New Mexico’s resentment of northern control…. caused various abortive secession efforts…” And I thought the problem was the force field anchored between the rest stop halfway

nonprofit has a new professional running its principal activity.

While the former person was a contractor, the new person is an employee. But the new guy’s assistants are contractors. At least four other one-person businesses provide services at the facility.

The business dynamics statistics I introduced last week leave out the self-employed and government. Still these numbers probably are the best available for getting a sense of private-sector economic dynamics within the state.

In 2011, four years after our 2007 peak and the latest data available, New Mexico had nearly 40,000 business establishments, meaning a place where business is done. (A firm can operate more than one establishment.)

Those establishments employed just over 600,000 people. While total employment grew 2,200 during 2011, to get there involved

creating more than 75,000 jobs and the destruction of something over 70,000 jobs. Much churn, as Joseph Schumpeter might say.

About a third of the new jobs came from new establishments with the rest from establishments continuing in business. New establishment job production dropped by almost half from the 2007 peak to 2011. The number of jobs created by existing businesses declined just over onefourth.

As one would expect, many more establishments have a few employees with the larger employee groups at fewer firms.

Those with fewer than 50 employees accounted for a third of the employee total in 2011 while their employers were just under three quarters of the establishments.

To say New Mexico is a state of small businesses is true in that only a few hundred establishments employ less than 5,000, which, on the national scale of

things, is a small business. In many ways, though, we are a state of fairly tiny businesses including a bunch of little bitty businesses; nearly 16,000 in 2011 had less than five employees.

While surviving in business for more than five years is legendarily difficult, a fair number do. In recession-rife 2011, almost 2,100 businesses with fewer than five employees had been around for between six to ten years, and another 808 were more than 25 years old.

In 2011, just under 4,000 establishments entered our economic world. That was a 20 percent drop from the recent peak in 2006. The fantasy is rebuilding that startup rate. But how? No clue here. The business dynamics recipe book is silent.

EDITORIAL

Most atheists are decent people who lack belief in God. They obey the law and instill morality in their kids. The majority live and let live, tolerating friends and neighbors who embrace Jesus, Allah, Buddha or any number of religious deities and beliefs.

A minority of atheists misuse their philosophy as a weapon against those who do not share their belief in an absence of God. They wage war against free expression.

They don’t like crosses and statues, so they banish them from view. They force landscapes of emptiness upon everyone else, because that’s what they prefer to see.

Their latest assault on the First Amendment, which protects free speech and religion, is downright heartless, selfish and cruel.

The conflict involves two makeshift crosses on the side of a road in Southern California where Ann Marie Devaney’s teenage son was hit and killed by an SUV. Memorials of this nature are a tradition in civilized societies that respect human life and fellow humans suffering in grief. Those who take offense have the right to look away. They have the option to harbor bigotry toward people with different values and beliefs.

They have a right to think only of themselves when seeing the symbol of another person’s loss.

But one of these mean-spirited individuals was not satisfied with turning away.

When he saw Devaney’s modest expression, he set out to destroy it. The offended party enlisted assistance of the American Humanist Association, one of multiple organizations determined to establish disbelief by using government force to stop expressions of belief. The association wrote to the Lake Elsinore City Council and said local government violated the Constitution by tolerating a Christian expression on public property.

The argument stands no honest scrutiny.

The First Amendment prohibits Congress from making laws respecting an establishment of religion. It’s an extraordinary stretch to suggest that allowing a mother to place a cross on public right-of-way equals passage of a law that establishes religion.

The First Amendment also prohibits governments from interfering with the free exercise of religion, even on public space.

That’s why cops don’t stop preachers who proselytize on government sidewalks or presidents who invoke “God” while speaking from the White House. This country was founded to provide a massive freespeech zone, encompassing private and public property, in which all would tolerate the sights and sounds of religious belief.

Probably because city officials hate these controversies, the City Council responded to the complaint by ordering removal of the small crosses. Devaney, not wanting to burden her community, put up no fuss and quietly removed them. It made her sad.

“It’s like I’m losing my son again,” the woman told a NBC affiliate.

Thankfully, the rest of the community didn’t accept the Humanist Association’s oppressive tactics. A group of protesters placed six additional crosses on the ground just moments after Devaney removed two.

One new cross told the humanists to “get a life.” Another asked “what happened to our freedom?” A third asked “what if he was your child?”

We ask the humanists: Where’s your compassion for fellow humans?

Among those who defended Devaney’s memorial was Laurie Howanec, mother of the teen driver who accidentally killed Devaney’s son.

“That’s their memorial,” she said. “That’s where they go to grieve.”

Anti-religion bullies weaken free speech with each petty assault. In this case, in a despicable display of intolerance, they begged City Hall for less decency and compassion toward a mom mourning her son.

Is nothing sacred? It’s hard to see how such behavior improves our world.

REPRINTED FROM THE COLORADO SPRINGS GAZETTE

Three hours of media waterboarding

On Thursday, February 27, I received an email inviting me to be part of a segment the Daily Show with Jon Stewart was doing on fracking. After doing my research, I agreed to participate and flew to New York City for a March 7 taping.

I expected that they’d try to spring something on me.

Based on the pre-taping interviews, I had a sense of where the interview would go. I studied up as if I was heading in for a final exam. I wanted to be sure they couldn’t trip me up.

When I walked into the Daily Show offices, I felt that I was ready.

The interview started straight enough. They asked: “Why do environmentalists hate fracking?” I explained that I didn’t think it was really about fracking, as thousands, if not millions, of wells had been

drilled using hydraulic fracturing since moder n techniques were developed in 1949. I pointed out that a primitive form of fracking was done in the late 1800s when a nitro glycerin torpedo was dropped down a well hole.

Despite this long, safe, and prosperous history the frack attacks had started in October 2007 — shortly after the technologies of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling were successfully combined and began to unleash America’s new energy abundance.

I continued: It is not really about fracking. It is about fos-

sil fuels—and hating them.

The average person doesn’t have a clear understanding of the role that energy plays in their lives (which is why I do what I do). All most people know about energy is the price of gasoline and they know “drill, baby, drill.” They know that increased production of oil translates to lower prices at the pump. So the anti-fossil fuel crowd can’t come out with an anti-drilling campaign, but they can use a term that sounds scary and that people do not understand: fracking—the vernacular for hydraulic fracturing.

Because people do not know what fracking is, the antis can give it whatever definition they want and use fear, uncertainty, and doubt to turn people against the proven technology that is almost singly responsible for creating millions of jobs in America and bringing

us closer to energy independence than previously ever thought possible. In a recent Fracking by the Numbers report, on page 6, Environment America offers a definition that basically covers the entire drilling process from permitting to production— including: “to deliver the gas or oil produced from that well to market.”

Once they had scared people, those against fracking set out to stop the procedure— with the ultimate goal of banning it altogether. Since 9698% of all oil-and-gas wells drilled in the U.S. today are stimulated using hydraulic fracturing, banning fracking essentially bans modern oiland-gas production.

I was asked about fracking accidents. I asserted that there were none that I was

tion, or UTI) or in the prostate gland (prostatitis). Antibiotics can treat both types of infection. Other symptoms are common when you have a bladder infection. These include suddenly having to urinate a lot more often than usual. They also include feeling like you can’t hold it when the urge comes on. When a bladder infection spreads to the kidneys, it can cause pain in the back.

An infection of the prostate is more likely if you also have an aching sensation in your groin. Fevers, shaking chills, nausea or vomiting are also signs of an infection. If you have these symptoms, you should contact your doctor promptly.

Another possibility is a sexually transmitted disease (STD).

An STD usually produces a milky or whitish penile discharge in addition to the symptoms you mentioned. Your doctor can take a urine sample or a sample of the discharge to test for a UTI, prostatitis or an

STD. Prolonged dripping may also be a symptom of an overactive bladder. This is a common condition in older men. An overactive bladder may cause occasional, uncontrollable loss of urine. A person may frequently urinate small amounts yet still feel a great urge to urinate.

Several exercises can help with an overactive bladder. Effective medicines also are available.

Quite often, doctors don’t find a specific reason for the types of symptoms you have.

And initial treatment might not help. This can be frustrating, but keep working with your doctor. It’s likely you will get some relief.

See NOON, Page A5

Various causes for change in urination

DEAR DOCTOR K: I am a 52-year-old man. When I finish urinating, I drip much more then I used to. And I have a stinging sensation in my urethra. What could cause this?

DEAR READER: What you’re experiencing is a very common complaint. As we age, several things happen. One is some enlargement of the prostate gland. This is called benign prostatic hyperplasia, or BPH. Your doctor can perform a digital rectal exam to assess the size and texture of your prostate gland. As the prostate gland increases in size, the bladder (which stores urine) has to exert more pressure to get rid of the last drops of urine. When that happens, some of that pressure gets placed on the part of the bladder called the bladder neck.

This muscular portion of the bladder can contract, leading to the stinging sensation you mention. Particularly if the stinging sensation is located at

ASK DR. K

UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

the very tip of your penis, bladder neck pressure is the most likely cause. If this is the case, your doctor can prescribe medication to relax smooth muscle in the bladder neck.

If your prostate is enlarged, your doctor can also suggest lifestyle changes that may help to control your symptoms. For example, avoid drinking caffeinated and alcoholic beverages in the evening. Both can affect the muscle tone of the bladder and stimulate the kidneys to produce urine. If necessary, medications and surgical options are also available.

Stinging sensations can also result from an infection in the bladder (a urinary tract infec-

How do you ensure fruit trees produce?

LOCAL

Roswell Daily Record

Q: I moved into a house 18 months ago, The garden had 5 mature dwarf fruit trees - two apples, two plums, and a semidwar f peach, all somewhere between 5-10 years old. They had been neglected for several years so last spring I pruned pretty heavily. They all produced a great number of blossoms, but no fruit. (There was one huge peach that rotted before I saw it.)

I did very minimal pruning last month, but what can I do to insure fruiting this year? Some of the trees are starting to bloom already.

Susan Schlesinger Via NMSU University-wide Extension

A: You did not tell where you live in New Mexico, but weather conditions last year reduced fruit production over most of the state.

The very dry winter caused significant stress, and the repeated frosts and freezes after most fruit trees flowered caused the many trees across New Mexico to lose their fruit. Some trees consistently flower too early in New Mexico, producing fruit only once

in several years. However, even apple trees that flower after other fruit trees lost their fruit last year, as you experienced.

Leaves often for m after the flowers in fruit trees, so the leaves are often less affected by the cold. The temperatures that cause damage differ somewhat between species, and especially at different stages of development.

Buds that are just beginning to open as the leaf buds were last year are hardier than flower buds that have already opened. The unopened buds can withstand very cold temperatures, while buds just beginning to open may still survive temperatures as low as 25 degrees. Once the buds have opened and flowers are exposed temperatures of 29 to 30 degrees are sufficient to damage

Man convicted of selling drugs in elementary school zone

LOVINGTON — A local man arrested Jan. 8 for selling drugs from a residence across the street from the Yarbro Elementary School was convicted March 13 in District Court of trafficking controlled substances and being a felon in possession of firearms.

A jury took just 31 minutes to reach a verdict in the case against Joseph Skaggs, 34, of Lovington. After a lengthy investigation, Lovington police served a search warrant at Skaggs’ residence and discovered approximately 20 grams of methamphetamine, drug paraphernalia, packaging supplies and firearms.

“We hope the jury’s swift verdict sends a message to anyone thinking of distributing narcotics near a school,” LPD Chief Danny Bryant said.

Immediately after the verdict, Judge Mark Sanchez sentenced Skaggs to 10-1/2 years, but sentencing enhancement due to his prior felonies may take the it as high as 22 years in prison.

The case began through a Crime Stoppers tip.

Rodeo funding request denied, commission cites uncertainties

LOVINGTON — The Lea County Rodeo was the first casualty of financial cuts due to the uncertainty of the county budget after the signing of Senate Bill 268 by Gov. Susana Martinez.

With passage of the bill, the county will have to make a $4.1 million payment to the state Human Services Department next year. The funds will be matched by the federal government and redistributed to 29 hospitals in the state for uncompensated care in Medicaid, indigent and charity cases.

Lea County Fair Board chairman Corey Helton asked the commission for a 4 percent increase ($5,625) for payouts to cowboys who compete here in August. The increased payout would help move the local rodeo to Gold Tour status.

“We are going to have to make some concessions somewhere,” said commissioner Tom Pierce.

the fruit and sometimes burn early leaves.

Some gardeners have tried to run sprinklers on their fruit trees during cold nights. As water freezes it releases heat, protecting the buds and encasing them in a blanket of ice. This blanket of ice may insulate the buds from colder temperatures, but in our conditions, the blanket of ice can become heavy enough to break branches and do more harm than good. This is also not a good way to conserve water.

Other gardeners may string Christmas lights in their fruit tree (the older, large incandescent bulbs that heat up). They cover the tree with plastic sheets (very feasible with some dwarf fruit trees). This may protect the buds close to the light bulbs and in

some years even those farther away. However, if the wind blows strongly, as it often does in New Mexico during the spring, the plastic may break branches and do significant harm to the trees.

Research conducted by NMSU researchers many years ago indicated that delaying bud break is more effective. This is done by putting micro emitters in the tree and causing them to run on days in January and February when temperatures exceed 50 degrees.

The sprinklers run only a few seconds every 15 minutes only when the temperatures are above 50.

Wetting the twigs cools the buds as the water evaporates and can delay the opening of buds by up to two weeks, preserving their hardiness. In some years this is sufficient to protect the fruit and obtain a crop. This does use water, a consideration in dry years, but does not increase the risk of branch breakage by the formation of ice. This procedure is much more complicated than other techniques and was not deemed effective for commercial use, but may be useful for home gardeners.

The department found a 12 percent decrease during that time, going from 22.6 percent of o b e s e thirdgraders in 2010 to 19.9 percent in 2013. Obesity rates among Native American thirdgraders, the group with the highest prevalence, also declined from 36.6 percent in 2010 to 29.5 percent in 2013 — a 20 percent decline.

The department, however, remains concerned about the significant increase in childhood obesity between kindergarten and third grade. 19.9 percent of New Mexico’s third-graders were obese in 2013, compared to 13.2 percent when the same age group was in kindergarten in 2010.

CLAYTON — Due to increasing fire danger throughout the state, New Mexico State Parks implemented restrictions on open fires, charcoal and smoking on March 8 within the following state parks: Bottomless Lakes, Brantley Lake, Clayton Lake, Conchas Lake, Oasis and Sumner Lake.

“The region has not had any substantial precipitation lately,” said Director Tommy Mutz. “Low moisture levels have significantly dried out vegetation within the restrictions necessary for the safety of our visitors.”

The boy was reportedly driving because his parents were too drunk to be behind the wheel.

Mark G. Martinez, 37, and Karla D. Naranjo, 31, both of Vallecitos, were arrested on charges of child abuse and negligent use of a deadly weapon. Martinez was also charged with battery.

Magistrate Judge Alex Naranjo set bail for both Martinez and Naranjo at $10,000, with 10 percent to the court, $1,000.

Deputies allege Martinez attacked Joseph Jacquez, while Martinez’s wife and two children were with him, then drove away. When the red car Martinez allegedly fled in was later located, deputies found Martinez and Naranjo’s son, Marcos Martinez, 13, to be driving.

to let them get me on camera saying “fraccident.”

Once I was back at home and at my desk, I did a search on drilling, accident, and pizza. The story came up—but it wasn’t a “fraccident.” While the exact cause of the Greene County, PA, well fire is still under investigation, the local news reported: “Chevron had previously completed drilling and hydraulically fracturing, or fracking, the well and was in the final stages of using steel pipe to hook it up to a pipeline distribution network for production.”

The Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection’s Scott Perry stated: “the problem may have come from a defect in the wellhead itself. Chevron’s wellheads are ringed with collars that have set pins running horizontally through them.” Perry says one of the pins may have blown out of

the collar, releasing the gas.

The accident referenced by the Daily Show, took place in a rural area and no homes were ever endangered. But Chevron realized that the increased truck traffic and other activities inconvenienced the folks of Bobtown. In an effort to be a “good partner” in the community, Chevron offered vouchers to the only eatery within 80 miles.

While the locals aren’t upset with Chevron for the gesture, saying: “The whole issue was blown out of proportion,” comedians have had a field day with it and the anti-fossil fuel crowd is using it for messaging. A petition has been started at MoveOn.org demanding that Chevron apologize for the free pizza—calling it “an insult.” There are currently 1200+ signatures, mostly from distant locales, but none from Bobtown.

Another consideration regarding fruit formation during cool springs is the presence or absence of pollinators. Cool springs may provide fewer honeybees and other pollinators. If the flowers are not pollinated, the fruit will not form.

There is no way to guarantee a crop, but planting varieties that bloom later and use of protective procedures mentioned above can help.

Española city councilor has a rocky first week

ESPAÑOLA — Española police arrested a newly elected city councilor March 9 on charges of child abuse after he allegedly choked his 13-year-old son over the last few crisps in a bag of potato chips.

Police allege Phillip Chacon Sr., who was sworn in to the City Council on March 7, choked and punched his son. The elder Chacon was arrested after an investigation into the claims of his son.

Española police transported Chacon to the Tierra Amarilla Detention Center, where his wife posted his $5,000 bond on the thirddegree felony the same day he was arrested, according to court documents.

He has not been arraigned as of press time.

Phillip Chacon Sr. threatened to “knock out” a Rio Grande SUN reporter on March 9, after he had been released from the T ierra Amarilla Detention Center.

The reporter walked out of the Rio Arriba County Sherif f’s Of fice lobby at 11:51 p.m., after taking pictures of a man suspected of driving while under the intoxication of methamphetamine, who was in

possession of a fully automatic assault rifle.

The reporter heard his name called as he walked across the parking lot. He saw Chacon standing, his legs apart, his hands behind his back with a water bottle in his right hand.

The reporter said, “Oh, hi, Phil,” as he moved his hands toward his camera.

Phillip Chacon Sr. responded with a threat of violence: “You better not take my picture or else you’ll get knocked out,” he said.

An unidentified woman, accompanying Chacon, said, “Oh, babe.”

The reporter, fearing for his safety, did not take a picture of Chacon. Chacon, the woman he was with and a group of unidentified adults got into two sedans and left the parking lot.

Chacon said in an interview March 11 that he passed the reporter in the parking lot while on his way to the Sheriff’s Office to pick up one of his family member’s cars, left there during an attempt to pay the bond for his release. He said he had no intention to visit the Sheriff’s Office.

Jailed militant key to Mideast talks

RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — A prominent Palestinian uprising leader imprisoned by Israel could soon emerge as the key to keeping fragile U.S.-led peace efforts alive.

According to several top officials, the Palestinians are seeking the freedom of Marwan Barghouti, who is serving multiple life sentences for his alleged role in killings of Israelis, as part of any plan to extend negotiations with Israel beyond an April deadline.

A release of Barghouti, a popular figur e among Palestinians, could inject new life into the troubled peace pr ocess, boost embattled Palestinian Pr esident Mahmoud Abbas, and even provide the Palestinians with a plausible successor to their 78-year -old leader.

But Israel seems unlikely to approve the request, setting the stage for a possible br eakdown in the talks.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — The FBI is helping Malaysian authorities investigate deleted data on a flight simulator belonging to the pilot of the missing Malaysia Airlines plane, while distraught relatives of the passengers unleashed their anger Wednesday, wailing in frustration at 12 days of uncertainty.

The anguish of relatives of the 239 people on Flight 370 boiled over at a briefing near Kuala Lumpur’s airport. Two Chinese women who shouted at Malaysian authorities and unfurled a banner accusing officials of “hiding the truth” were removed from

the room. In a heartwrenching scene, one woman screamed in sorrow as she was dragged away.

“I want you to help me to find my son! I want to see my son!” one of the two unidentified women said. “We have been here for 10 days.”

Files containing records of flight simulations were deleted Feb. 3 from the device found in the home of the Malaysia Airlines pilot, Capt. Zaharie Ahmad Shah, Malaysian police chief Khalid Abu said.

It was not immediately clear whether investigators thought that deleting the

files was unusual. The files might hold signs of unusual flight paths that could help explain where the missing plane went.

Defense Minister Hishammuddin Hussein told a news conference that Zaharie is considered innocent until proven guilty. He said members of the pilot’s family are cooperating in the investigation.

A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity because the official was not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation by name, said the FBI has been given electronic data to analyze.

U.S. Attorney General

Eric Holder said in Washington that the FBI was working with Malaysian authorities.

“At this point, I don’t think we have any theories,” Holder said.

Flight 370 disappeared March 8 on a night flight from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing. Malaysian authorities have not ruled out any possible explanations, but have said the evidence so far suggests the flight was deliberately turned back across Malaysia to the Strait of Malacca, with its communications systems disabled. They are unsure what happened next and why.

Ukraine bows to Crimea seizure, plans for pullout

SEVASTOPOL, Crimea (AP) — Surrendering to Russia’s inexorable seizure of Crimea, Ukraine announced plans Wednesday for mass troop withdrawals from the strategic peninsula as Moscow-loyal forces seized control of Kiev’s naval headquarters here and detained its commander.

Crime Stopper success across state lines! We’re all smiles!

You will remember about a week ago when a Roswell Police Department officer made a routine traffic stop in downtown Roswell and ended up being dragged about 30 feet by the driver of the vehicle. The suspect was a man named Brian Rudloff of Odessa, Texas.

Mr. Rudloff’s truck, which we learned had been stolen in Odessa, was found shortly at a local hotel, but unfortunately he managed to escape.

Well, that did not last very long! Based on a tip to Chaves County Crime Stoppers and an alert call center, the tip was forwarded to Odessa and, only one day after the incident, Mr. Ludloff was apprehended in Odessa! We are appreciative for the initiative shown by our call center, and for the efficiency of the law enforcement community in Odessa, Texas. In our conversation with Executive Director Susan Rogers of Odessa Crime Stoppers, We are convinced that there will be some future networking between our organizations. They are a well-

established non-profit agency in Texas, successful in what they do and with ideas which we may find useful in Roswell and Chaves County.

Police Chief Phillip Smith arrived here in Roswell a couple of years ago as a deputy chief, and we have had the pleasure of some very good interaction with him over that period of time. He recognizes the importance of citizen involvement in preventing and solving crime.

Chief Smith has expressed that philosophy clearly in the few months he has been at the helm, including two large Neighborhood Watch meetings focused on his answering questions by residents. There will be more of these opportunities to meet the chief.

Chaves County Crime Stoppers is a key opportunity for us as citizens within our community to be involved in crime prevention.

It’s really a simple concept.

If you know of a fugitive

from the law or can provide information concerning a crime, which leads to an arrest, you may be eligible for an award of up to $1000.

Call 1-888-594-TIPS (8477), a call center in LaPorte, Texas and give your absolutely anonymous tip. The center is manned 24/7 and able to take calls in English or in Spanish. You should be given an identifying number for follow-up and the call will be directed to the Roswell coordinator. The Police Coordinator is a police officer who will take the digital call and forward it to the correct office or agency for action.

Remember, your tip could bring you a cash award of up to $1000!

1-888-594-TIPS (8477).

Our web site is www.chavescountycrim estoppers.com. And we do, of course, have a

Facebook page. no Twitter yet!)

(Sorry,

Once an arrest is made or a warrant is issued based on a particular tip, it becomes the job of the Crime Stoppers Board of Directors to determine what will be the amount of the award, up to $1,000. There are some standards we use, but importantly, the board relies on our law enforcement board members to suggest the “value” of the successful tip. We are particularly proud of our Board of Directors, citizens of our community who give their time and energy to a worthwhile organization.

These directors include Susie Snyder, Toni Pemberton, Neil Roe, Charles Shannon, Richard Lucero, Bill Golden, Don Bullock, Steve Wolfe and four law enforcement officers,

Sheriff’s Deputy Detective Bill Daleske, Commander Tom Moody of the RPD, and Detectives Albert Aldana and Officer Scott Wrenn, also of the Roswell Police Department.

Remember, the Chaves County Crime Stoppers number to call is 1-888-594TIPS (8477). No one will know who you are!

One other thing: On April 26, 2014, we will be doing another Prescription Drug Takeback at our office, 426 North Main, the corner of Fifth and Main.

Apprehended: Brian Rudloff, 36, in Odessa/Tx. If you have unused, unwanted or outdated prescription drugs, bring them to us from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m.

Death of designer L’Wren Scott is ruled a suicide NEW YORK (AP) — The death of fashion designer L’Wren Scott, the longtime girlfriend of Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, was suicide, the New York City medical examiner’s office said Wednesday.

An autopsy completed on the body of 49-year-old Scott found that she died of hanging, according to Julie Bolcer, a spokeswoman for the city medical examiner.

Scott was found dead in her Manhattan apartment Monday mor ning. Police said her assistant found her kneeling with a scarf wrapped around her neck that had been tied to the handle of a French door.

There was no note.

The Stones canceled their seven-date tour of Australia and New Zealand in the wake of Scott’s death. Jagger called Scott his “lover and best friend” in a Facebook tribute and said he was struggling to come to grips with her death.

Jagger’s bandmates voiced their support for him amid a trying time.

Keith Richards said in a statement Wednesday that “no one saw this coming” and that Jagger has “always been my soul brother and we love him.”

“We’re thick as thieves and we’re all feeling for the man,” he added.

Charlie Watts said the band’s priority is the 70year-old Jagger.

“Needless to say we are all completely shocked but our first thought is to support Mick at this awful time,” he said. “We intend to come back to Australia

ROSWELL 80/48

and New Zealand as soon as it proves possible.”

Ronnie Wood echoed Watts’ statement.

“This is such terrible news and right now the important thing is that we are all pulling together to offer Mick our support and help him through this sad time,” Wood said. “Without a doubt we intend to be back out on that stage as soon as we can.”

Scott had been Jagger’s companion since 2001.

The Rolling Stones frontman paid tribute to his girlfriend Tuesday on his Facebook page writing, “I will never forget her.”

“I am still struggling to understand how my lover and best friend could end her life in this tragic way.

We spent many wonderful years together and had made a great life for ourselves. She had great presence and her talent was much admired, not least by me.”

The fashion label founded by Scott had been heavily in debt and was reportedly about to fold.

Former New York Times fashion writer Cathy Horyn said in an essay on the paper’s website that Scott had been planning to announce that she was closing her business.

Scott canceled her London Fashion Week show last month, citing production delays.

Scott launched her highend fashion label in 2006.

First lady Michelle Obama, Nicole Kidman and Penelope Cruz were among the big names to wear her designs.

SPORTS B Cowboys sign DT Henry Melton Thursday, March 20, 2014 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

IRVING, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys have signed defensive tackle Henry Melton to an incentive-laden one-year contract with the free agent coming off a major knee injury.

The deal signed Wednesday has a $1.25 million base salary and could be worth up to $5 million.

The Cowboys hold a three-year option after the 2014 season.

The 27-year-old Melton missed most of last season for Chicago

after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee against Pittsburgh on Sept. 22.

Dallas is trying to rebuild its defensive line after franchise sacks leader DeMarcus Ware was released and 2013 leader Jason Hatcher signed with Washington.

Melton has 15 1/2 sacks in 48 career games but will be needed more as a disruptive force in the middle. His best years came in 2011 and 2012, when he had 13

of his sacks and 50 of his 63 career tackles.

Melton was a running back in high school in the Dallas area before becoming a defensive lineman with the Texas Longhorns.

He was a fourth-round pick by the Bears in 2009 and missed his rookie season with an ankle injury.

He will be reunited with former Chicago defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli, who now has the

same title with Dallas after Monte Kiffin was reassigned after the Cowboys finished last in the NFL in total defense.

“It’s like you’re betting on yourself,” Melton said on the team’s website. “I feel like with me and my rehab and coming back with Rod and the good defense that’s here, I can get back to that form.

I believe in that, and obviously they believe in me to get it done.”

Melton was arrested in Decem-

ber in Grapevine, where he went to high school, on charges of assault and public intoxication after police say he refused to leave a bar and fought with employees.

Police say Melton was accused of punching the bar manager in the face and biting his ar m.

Melton’s agent, Jordan Woy, said at the time that his client didn’t start the altercation.

Knicks open Jackson era with win NEW YORK (AP) — Carmelo Anthony scored 34 points and the New York Knicks opened the Phil Jackson era by beating the Indiana Pacers 92-86 Wednesday night for their season-high seventh straight victory.

With their new team president watching from a midcourt seat, the Knicks dominated the first half, then pulled away after the Eastern Conference leaders finally got untracked in the second half.

Fans stood to cheer Jackson in the first quarter and were on their feet again in the final minute to watch the Knicks beat the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last year.

Lance Stephenson had 21 points and nine rebounds for the Pacers, who had their four-game winning streak snapped and failed to extend their three-game lead over the Miami Heat, who lost to Boston earlier Wednesday. Roy Hibbert scored 20 on 8-of-10 shooting, but All-Star Paul George missed all six first-quarter shots and finished 4 for 17 for his 17 points.

New York’s previous six wins had all come against non-playoff teams, but this was against a team that seemingly had returned to form after dropping a season-worst four in a row.

Amare Stoudemire added 21 points and Tyson Chandler grabbed 14 rebounds for the Knicks, who are four games behind Atlanta for the final East playoff spot.

Jackson met with coaches and players earlier Wednesday, then watched the game from a seat above center court, receiving a loud standing ovation when shown

on the overhead screen during a first-quarter timeout.

The 11-time champion as a coach also was on the Knicks’ only two title-winning teams as a player, and there was a different energy in the building during what’s been a hugely disappointing season before recent days.

Mike Woodson said before the

game he wasn’t angry that Madison Square Garden chairman James Dolan had originally talked to Jackson in December about the coaching job, adding that “the city should be buzzing” over his return. (Not all of it is; a group of fans frustrated with Dolan’s mismanagement of the franchise went through with a previously planned

protest outside the arena before the game).

Anthony said he was excited about the hire, but that it was difficult to think about that with the players trying to focus on the game as they try to make a late run for a playoff spot.

Bay Hill will have to go on without Tiger Woods ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — The four-time Masters champion has an ailing back, and he’s been having it checked out even more regularly the last two weeks. It has reached the point that he is planning surgery after the Masters to see if he can get more comfortable playing golf.

Tiger Woods?

No, that would be Arnold Palmer.

“The doctors have seen things that they think they might be able to do something about,” Palmer said Wednesday at Bay Hill. “And I’m at this point about a month away from having an operation on my back to help me enjoy the game a little more.”

Palmer can’t speak for Woods, who is unable to defend his title this week in the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

A year ago at Bay Hill, all the talk was that Woods was back. He won Bay Hill to return to No. 1 in the world for the first time in more than two years.

Now all the talk is about Woods’ back.

He withdrew with five holes to play in the Honda Classic. His back bothered him the following week at Doral, and then flared up on Sunday as Woods posted a 78, the highest final-round score of his career. After a week off, the lower back pain was persistent enough that Woods called the 84-year-old tournament host to tell him he couldn’t defend his title in the Arnold Palmer Invitational.

DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Now that Cal Poly has gotten its first NCAA victory out of the way, why stop at one?

Chris Eversley scored 19 points to help Cal Poly become the first team in 59 years with 19 losses to win an NCAA tour nament game, beating Texas 81-69 on Souther n Wednesday night in the First Four.

Now the team with the worst record in the tournament (14-19) moves on to face the one with the best — top-seeded Wichita State (34-0) — in the second round in St. Louis on Friday.

It’s exactly what Mustangs coach Joe Callero had hoped.

“I’m so weird that I was cheering the last five years that a 16 (seed) never upsets a 1,” he said.

“Because if we ever got a bid, we’d be a 16 seed and then we’d have a chance to

make real history.”

They’ve already done that.

The Mustangs were 0-3 and 4-9 early this season. They did not exactly inspire confidence heading into the Big West Conference tournament — losing nine of 11 — but they won the title to earn the program’s first NCAA bid.

There have been 23 teams with losing records in the NCAA tournament since 1955. Only three had won in the first/opening round.

The only other 19-loss team to win was Bradley (7-19), which won a game but lost in the final eight in 1955.

David Nwaba added 17 points and Brian Bennett — who was a perfect 5 for 5 from the field — had 10 for the Mustangs. Held back by injuries all season, a team that shot 41 percent from the field for the season saved its best for last by making 57 percent on the biggest stage. The 81 points was its second most in a game all year.

So should Wichita State be worried?

“Wichita State is a great team.

They’re a national favorite.

They’ve been undefeated all season,” Eversley said after flashing a quick grin when he heard the question. “We’re going to get on a plane tonight, get to St. Louis, Mo., and just go start on a scouting report and make sure we’re ready for Wichita State — and go out there keep playing the way we’ve been playing.”

Aaric Murray closed out his career with 38 points for Texas Southern (19-15), champs of the Southwestern Athletic Conference tournament.

“He was going to get his points either way, so we knew

Vols

he would just need to take the other players out of the game,” said Nwaba, who got Cal Poly out of the blocks with eight of its first 10 points. “That was our plan going in.”

Murray was the top player on the court, but that wasn’t enough for the Tigers. Originally a blue-chip recruit for La Salle, he left there for West Virginia where he was dismissed from the team. In his final year of eligibility for Texas Southern, he had 28 points against Stanford, 30 against Tulsa and 48 against Temple in his return home to Philadelphia.

Cal Poly dominated most of the first half to build a 12-point lead at the break and never let it go.

The Tigers, who had won nine in a row, cut the lead to 73-66 with 2:16 left, but the Mustangs hit 8 of 10 fouls shots over the last 1:42 to seal the deal.

The Mustangs pulled away midway through the opening half.

Cal Poly took the lead for good on Bennett’s slashing move to the hoop. After a Texas Southern miss, Bennett scored again on a 14-foot jumper. Those two baskets keyed a 16-7 burst for a 32-24 lead.

“They took advantage of our mistakes defensively,” said Texas Southern coach Mike Davis, who had also led Indiana and UAB into the tournament. “They shared the ball well. They had one turnover in the first half. It’s hard to beat a basketball team that has one turnover.”

Murray finished 14 of 23 from the field, 3 of 5 behind the arc and 7 for 7 at the line.

“They didn’t let me catch the ball one on one; they didn’t let me go against their big one on one,” he said. “And they just played some good defense.”

The Mustangs led the Big West

They found a very improbable way.

Tennessee didn’t lead until Antonio Barton’s 3pointer put the Vols up 5957 with 3:05 left in regula-

tion. There were five lead changes before the Vols’ Jordan McRae missed a jumper at the buzzer, leaving it tied at 64.

Stokes’ three-point play was the key moment in his 18-point, 13-rebound performance, putting the Volunteers ahead to stay. Tennessee’s highly regarded defense took it from there, holding Iowa (21-13) to one free throw. The Hawkeyes missed all eight of their

Rivalry gets early kick start in 2014 MLB season Roswell Daily Record

SYDNEY (AP) — Suspensions to eight players and a controversial NL Westclinching swimming pool incident last season helped expand a growing rivalry between the Los Angeles Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks.

But Dodgers manager Don Mattingly says he doesn’t expect any serious animosity to carry over from last year when the teams meet to open the major league season Saturday and Sunday at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

But he couldn’t rule it out either.

The suspensions came after a brawl last June, and the incident was credited with igniting the Dodgers’ run that moved them to the division title. Then when the Dodgers clinched the division crown in Arizona, they upset many Diamondbacks players by celebrating in the Chase Field swimming pool.

“Kirk (Gibson, Diamondbacks manager) talked about it a bit yesterday,” Mattingly said. “It’s a rivalry when you play somebody 19 times a year in your own division. Those games get heated.

“I don’t feel like there is going to be (problems) .... maybe there is. These guys play hard, and they’re tough. For us, what happened last year is over and we should move forward and play.”

Gibson was more or less

Knicks

Hibbert scored 14 points in the third quarter to help Indiana wipe out nearly all of a 16point deficit, and it was just a one-point game early in the fourth when George made just his second field goal. But the Knicks answered with eight in a row, going ahead 75-66 on Stoudemire’s basket with 7:57 remaining, and Anthony spun for a dunk and knocked down a jumper for consecutive scores after Indiana trimmed it to five with under 4 minutes to go.

Woodson improved to 45-16 in March and April as Knicks coach, but New York faces an uphill climb to dig out of the hole a 211 February created.

conciliatory when asked about the brewing rivalry on Tuesday, preferring to talk about Australia as the location for his 1985 honeymoon “and that worked out pretty good, so I’m hoping this does. We’re ready to go.”

Mattingly said people don’t think of baseball as a tough physical sport “in terms of football, hockey or in this country, rugby.”

“Baseball is more mental toughness,” he added.

“Night in and night out, the travel, getting in late, all kinds of different things you deal with.”

And he feels like the Dodgers match up.

“We feel like we’re tough,” Mattingly said. “We got down in the division 10 games at one point, surviving that and then ended up winning by 10 or 11. When you love to play, it’s easier to get ready to play. I think we’ve got guys who love playing.”

Mattingly said first baseman Paul Goldschmidt typified the toughness of the Diamondbacks.

“He’s kind of gotten to be a beast, hard to deal with, tough to pitch to,” Mattingly said. “He’s really killed us. He’s just getting to be a tough and tougher out. We treat him with a lot of respect.”

On Tuesday, Goldschmidt said of the rivalry: “We play each other a lot.

Guys aren’t going to be worried about being laid The Knicks shot 24 percent in the first quarter, missing all five 3point attempts, but had a 21-14 lead after going 9 of 10 from the free-throw line.

New York ran off 12 in a row to open its biggest lead at 39-23 on Stoudemire’s basket midway through the second, and the Pacers could only trim that to 47-35 at halftime NOTES: Andrew Bynum will be out the rest of the week resting his sore right knee. The center aggravated his troublesome knee after playing Saturday against Detroit, his second appearance since signing with the Pacers. He has averaged 11.5 points and 9.5 rebounds thus far. ...

“I think that he needs to take (time) — whether it’s this week, next week or the following week — to get ready for Augusta. Certainly, if I were in that position, I’d be doing much the same.”

field.

On Thursday, the Dodgers will play Team Australia in an exhibition game and the Diamondbacks provide the opposition against Australia on Friday.

“We won’t use any topline pitchers in that game,” Mattingly said of the exhibition. “We’ll try to make sure we won’t have anyone

over-exposed.”

In injury news, Mattingly said he didn’t expect a right shoulder injury to Dodgers left fielder Carl Crawford during a minor league game Tuesday to be serious. Crawford left the game after the injury.

Mattingly said no MRI exams or other scans were scheduled, “but that could change.”

Crawford is one of four Dodgers left behind at Camelback Ranch in Phoenix because his fiancee is about to give birth.

“It sounds like he had a checked swing, and felt a little something in his shoulder,” Mattingly said.

“He stopped right there. He had a planned day of f tomorrow, and we expect him to play the day after.”

champion Jason Day (No. 4 in the world) pulled out with recurring pain in his thumb, and Phil Mickelson (No. 5) is not playing this year.

Not that it would change the dynamics of what already has been a peculiar season.

With 18 tournaments in the books since to the official start of the season in October, Zach Johnson is the only player to win a PGA Tour event while ranked among the top 10 in the world.

Jimmy Walker has won three times. Patrick Reed, who feels like No. 5 but who still is only No. 20, has two victories, including a World Golf Championship.

The Masters is three weeks away. Is it time for the stars to come out?

“Hopefully, this one does,” Masters champion Adam Scott said, pointing to himself with a laugh. “But as far as unexpected winners, it

seems to me that’s happening more and more in golf.

There are more and more guys breaking through, putting in a lot of hard work and getting what they deserve. So I think we’ve seen a bit of a shift in the game over the last couple of years — a lot less domination by top players.”

Graeme McDowell, a runner-up to Woods two years at Bay Hill, said he can understand what the No. 1 player is going through with injuries. He also believes that competition might be an even larger obstacle than his health for Woods to break Jack Nicklaus’ record in the majors. Woods is at 14, four short of tying Nicklaus.

“He’s a physical player who creates a lot of speed and a lot of power and his body is starting to struggle a little bit, no doubt about it,” McDowell said. “But I’m sure he’ll fix it. ... But we all talk about how good the

fields are nowadays. Taking Tiger’s fitness and physicality out of it, winning major championships is getting harder and harder for everyone — including the best player maybe that’s ever lived in Tiger.

“He’s got more than just his body to be fighting.

There’s a lot of great players in the world now,” McDowell said. “It’s going to be harder for him to achieve Jack’s record. But if anyone can do it, I’m sure he can find a way because we all know how good he is.”

Scott already had one chance at Doral to try to get to No. 1 in the world. Even if the Australian were to win this week, he would not go to No. 1, though a combination of winning and the math involved in the world ranking would put him there before the Masters.

For now, there is at least one less star to worry about this week — Woods.

Southern Mississippi defeats Toledo 66-59 in NIT

AP Photo

Southern Mississippi guard Michael Craig (24) pushes against Toledo guard Jordan Lauf (25) during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game in the first round of the NIT in Hattiesburg, Miss., Wednesday.

HATTIESBURG, Miss. (AP) — With less than 2 minutes remaining and Southern Mississippi nursing a tight lead, senior point guard Neil Watson knew the situation called for milking the clock.

But Michael Craig was streaking toward the basket, there was eye contact, and Watson couldn’t help himself.

The long alley-oop pass was perfectly placed to Craig, who slammed it home to put the exclamation point on Southern Miss’ 66-59 victory over Toledo in the first round of the National Invitation Tournament on Wednesday night.

“Had we missed that, you probably would have heard Coach (Donnie) Tyndall cussing both of us on national television for going outside the playbook,” Watson said with a grin.

Southern Miss (28-6) has a 15-0 record at home this season and its 28 wins are the most for the program since it moved to Division I in 1972.

Craig led the Golden Eagles with 16 points and nine rebounds, while Watson added 12 points. Southern Miss had a 39-29 rebounding advantage.

It was a strange night for the Golden Eagles, who grabbed a big lead in the first half, lost it early in the second and then rallied to win by a fairly comfortable margin.

Southern Miss took a 34-19 lead into halftime by shooting 14 of 28 from the field, but Toledo responded with a 24-6 run to open the second half and had a 43-40 lead with 11 minutes remaining.

“We were playing not to lose versus playing to win,” Watson said. “Everybody out there was kind of lackadaisical.”

Tyndall — grinning only slightly — said his strategy to shake the Golden Eagles out of their slump including “yelling real,

real loud.”

“When you have a senior -dominated team like we do, you can challenge guys,” Tyndall said. “Things weren’t going our way and for a 2- or 3-minute stretch guys kind of had their heads down. So we challenged them. We said, ‘Look, we’re on our home floor, 8 or 10 minutes to go, we’re fine. Stay the course. Stay aggressive.”’

The game remained tight until Aaron Brown’s corner 3-pointer with 4:22 left gave Southern Miss a 57-51 advantage.

Julius Brown led the Rockets (27-7) with 19 points. Justin Drummond added 14 points and seven rebounds.

Toledo shot 7 of 25 (28 percent) during the first half, but 16 of 30 (53.3 percent) in the second to get back into the game.

“In the first half, I wasn’t displeased with the way we were playing because we got some really good looks,” Toledo coach Tod Kowalczyk said. “We just didn’t make the shots. In the second half, we made a few.”

Toledo earned the bid to the NIT after winning a school-record 27 games.

“I’m proud of our guys and our season and I’m even more excited about our future,” Kowalczyk said. “We only lose one guy who plays a lot of minutes, so we’ll be back and we’ll be better for this.”

United beats Olympiakos, through in Champs League

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Robin van Persie ushered Manchester United into the Champions League quarterfinals — and potentially saved his manager’s job — with a hat trick in a 3-0 victory over Olympiakos that completed one of the competition’s greatest comebacks on Wednesday.

On one of the memorable European nights at Old Trafford, Van Persie scored three times in a 27minute span either side of halftime to overtur n a 2-0 deficit from the first leg. A slew of brilliant saves by David de Gea were also key to a famous win for the English champions — and a vital one for their manager, David Moyes.

Moyes’ position had come under intense scrutiny after United’s humiliating 3-0 loss to fierce rival Liverpool in the Premier League on Sunday, the latest in a string of dreadful results in his first season in charge.

An early exit in Europe could have stretched the patience of fans and United’s hierarchy beyond breaking point — but Moyes is left hoping this can be a watershed moment in his United career.

“I don’t want to come out here and say this is the moment,” Moyes said, “but at the same time, I really hope it is.”

A nerve-shredding night ended with Olympiakos captain Giannis Maniatis on his knees and in floods of tears, and Moyes saluting home fans and wearing the broadest grin.

The under-fire United manager was saved by the goal-scoring qualities of Van Persie, who converted a penalty in the 25th minute, side-footed home his second goal in first-half injury time

Roswell Daily Record

Fans appeared to be starting to waver, although the banner reading “The Chosen One” — a nickname given to Moyes after he was hand-picked for the job by predecessor Alex Ferguson — remained hung up high in the Stretford End as Olympiakos kicked off.

Initially, United was gripped by panic — misplacing passes, diving into tackles and showing no shape defensively — but the nerves were settled by Van Persie’s penalty.

The Netherlands striker tumbled after being barged in the back by Jose Holebas after bringing down a cross-field pass from Giggs, and he got up to convert his penalty unerringly.

Giggs was the architect of the second goal, too, floating another pass to Wayne Rooney, who crossed for Van Persie to caress his finish under goalkeeper Roberto’s dive.

The aggregate score was now 22 and Moyes greeted the goal with repeated fist-pumps and marched back to the dressing rooms, breaking into a jog at one point.

He was celebrating again within six minutes of the second half when Van Persie curled home a free kick from just outside the area, with Roberto earning the wrath of his defenders for not trusting his wall and vacating the area near where the ball crossed the line.

With Olympiakos attacking relentlessly in the final 25 minutes, the final whistle was met with relief as much as joy by home fans. Languishing in seventh place in the Premier League, the Champions League remains a potential source of silverware for United this season.

and curled in a free kick in the 52nd. And he also had words of praise for Ryan Giggs, who at the age of 40 delivered a tireless performance in midfield.

Giggs lasted the full match, despite having played only 81 minutes since Jan. 7, and played a crucial role in Van Persie’s first two goals.

“His all-round play was very good,” Moyes said. “He defies his age.”

Van Persie was carried off on a stretcher in the final minutes after hurting his leg in a challenge but Moyes said he didn’t think it was a serious injury.

Olympiakos slumped to its 12th straight away defeat in England and missed out on securing a place in the last eight for the first time since 1999.

The Greek champions had their chances — some of De Gea’s saves were breathtaking — but defensively they were chaotic and they became only the sixth team to squander a two-goal lead from the first leg of a Champions League match.

“We were unlucky,” Olympiakos midfielder David Fuster said, “and we’re pretty upset about it.”

In Wednesday’s other last-16 match, Borussia Dortmund

advanced 5-4 on aggregate despite losing the second leg 2-1 at home to Zenit St. Petersburg.

The draw for the quarterfinals is held on Friday.

“We probably now will go into it as underdogs,” Moyes said. “If we play to our capabilities, which we have not done too often, then I think we will be a match for any team.”

Moyes insisted on the eve of the biggest game of his reign that his position was not under threat, saying United’s vision was “long term,” the board was still supportive and stressing that he was in a six-year contract.

Steve Cherundolo ends career due to knee injuries THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

American defender Steve Cherundolo, nicknamed “Mayor of Hannover” during a 15-year career that saw him play for just one club and rise to become Hannover’s captain, is retiring because of persistent knee injuries.

Cherundolo said Wednesday that several knee injuries in the last 15 months made it impossible to continue playing and that he was becoming assistant coach of Hannover’s under-23 team.

Roswell Daily Record

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: Due to various anti-drug lectures he was exposed to at school, my 13-year -old son believes that marijuana is not only illegal, but also is very bad for you. He said it is poison.

My state has recently legalized marijuana and I am at a loss about how to explain to him that pot is no longer “that bad,” as people partake of it in a r esponsible manner going forward. Any suggestions?

COLORADO MOM

DEAR MOM: Marijuana isn’t poison, unless it was sprayed with a poisonous chemical before being harvested.

The marijuana being sold to adults in the states where it is now legal has been carefully cultivated and harvested. Its use is not encouraged among teenagers, however, because research has shown it can impair brain development among young people.

Stress to your son that like alcohol, marijuana can slow reaction time and impair judgment and memory, which is why it’s illegal for minors to use it. Whether it will become legal across the nation is still an open question. If it’s abused the way that alcohol sometimes is, smoking weed may also be harmful because, like any smoke, it poses a risk to the lungs.

#####

DEAR ABBY: I moved into my boyfriend’s home several months ago. In the beginning, he was very attentive

COMICS

and we had fun together. But over the last couple of months, he has become abusive and unbearable to live with. He orders me around and double-checks to make sure I’m doing things “his way.”

I feel as though there isn’t room to breathe and no way out. I have lost weight, and I’m having trouble sleeping now. I have no family or friends who can help me out. I want to end this misery!

But how?

MISERABLE IN FLORIDA DEAR MISERABLE: Pick up the phone and call the National Domestic Violence Hotline (800-799-7233). Although your boyfriend’s controlling behavior hasn’t yet escalated to physical abuse, it very well could. The counselors at the hotline can help you to formulate a plan so you can safely get away. Please don’t wait to make the call, because the symptoms you’re having are ones of extreme stress.

#####

DEAR ABBY: We live in a small town. My husband is friendly and outgoing and seems to know everyone. We can’t go anywhere without running into someone he knows.

Meals out that should be quiet affairs turn into social situations I do not want to be part of.

I have wracked my brain as to a polite response to people when they say, “Join us!” I don’t WANT to join them. How do we politely decline their friendly offer?

“NOT TONIGHT” IN NORTH CAROLINA

Family Circus

DEAR “NOT TONIGHT”: A polite way to refuse would be to say, “We’d love to do that another time, but it has been a long day and we just want to sit and be quiet.” It wouldn’t be considered rude unless you say it often.

If these people are friends, they should understand because not everyone is up for company all the time. It is also understandable if a couple has things they need to discuss privately.

FROM HELOISE

KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Heloise: What is the proper way to INSERT A GREETING CARD into the envelope?

Rosa H., Moundridge, Kan.

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

Rosa, good question! There is not a right or a wrong way to put a card into an envelope. A good way to follow is to hold the card with the card front facing up and slide it into the envelope so the fold ends up at the bottom of the envelope. The front of the card should be toward the back of the envelope. That way, when the recipient opens it, he or she immediately sees the front of the card. And by grabbing the open side of the card, it prevents anything sent inside the card from falling out. Readers, what do you think?

For Better or For Worse

#####

Dear Heloise: I usually buy whichever brand of facial tissue that is on sale.

I’ve found that the cheaper brands typically take the box with them when you’re trying to remove the tissues. So, I have found all kinds of unique square tissue-box holders at thrift stores or discount stores. I have boxes all over the house and in my office, so I didn’t want to spend a ton on holders. They are always heavy enough to hold the box in place when removing a tissue, and now I have quite a random collection that matches my decor.

Marj A., Garland, Texas Dear Heloise: Recently, we had an outdoor fire pit built using native stone on the exterior. Upon its completion, the workers suggested that in one week I scrub the exterior using a stiff brush and 1 pint of vinegar to 1 gallon of water. They said this would “brighten” the rocks and concrete. They further stated that after working with cement, they used this method to clean their hands at home. I even was able to clean our birdbaths, and they were the cleanest they had been in years. — John W. in Arkansas This is a wonder ful way to clean certain stone/rock areas.

Just make sure vinegar can be used on the type of stone you have, because you should not use it on limestone, marble or travertine. With vinegar being so inexpensive, I have written Heloise’s Fantabulous Vinegar Hints and More to share many other hints that use vinegar. To order a pamphlet, send $5 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (70 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Vinegar, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 782795001. Soak a cloth in undiluted vinegar and use it to wipe away the white rings of salt on outdoor clay pots.

Dear Heloise: I just read the idea to use twin-size sheets as tablecloths.

The reader might try using a twin ready-made quilt, too. I’ve used them with seasonal motifs, purchased when on sale.
