Gov attends ChalleNGe graduation MATTHEW ARCO RECORD STAFF WRITER

FRIENDS OF BITTER LAKE Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge is nestled northeast of Roswell. The silent wilderness displays natural beauty in the rouged desert and is softened by the colorful plants and lake that rests below Comanche Hill. It is the epitome of the Land of Enchantment.

This terrain is home to many animals.

Gov. Susana Martinez congratulates Cadet Justin Godell, of the New Mexico National Guard Youth ChalleNGe, and his classmates during their graduation, Saturday.

Graduating cadets of New Mexico National Guard’s Youth ChalleNGe were greeted by a special guest on their special day Saturday.

Gov. Susana Martinez spoke to the class as news came from officials that the Youth ChalleNGe will not be leaving the city. Her visit came after the cadets toured the Roundhouse during January’s session and one asked the governor to attend their graduation.

“One of the girls asked me if I would come,” she said, adding, “I will do everything to keep this program.”

Martinez told the cadets about her struggles growing up and how self-deter-

mination, and not allowing people to tell you what you can or cannot accomplish, is the key to success.

“If you have the fire in your belly to do something, it can be done,” she said.

The governor’s visit came months after it was announced that the program which serves at-risk youth may have to shut down. Officials cited lack of funds and an aging building where the cadets are housed as reasons for its possible closure.

“We’re going to keep this going,” said Maj. Gen. Kenny Montoya, the top commander of the New Mexico National Guard.

“It’s going to happen. I will not leave here until it happens.”

HOT WITH 68 BETHESDA, Md. (AP) — Rory McIlroy kept punishing the golf course and the record book Saturday, setting himself up with an eight-shot lead at the U.S. Open with 18 holes left between him and his first major championship.

In a third round that felt more like a regular day on tour than the toughest test in golf, McIlroy shot 3-under-par 68 to finish at 14-under 199, breaking Jim Furyk’s record for the best 54-hole score by one stroke.

Joe Hicks cooks for all the families who attended Roswell’s annual Juneteenth celebration at Cahoon Park, Saturday.

Roswell celebrates Juneteenth in style Cahoon Park was filled with food, music, fun and excitement Saturday as families joined together to celebrate an anniversary pivotal to African-American history in America.

Roswell residents were out in full swing for the city’s annual Juneteenth celebration, one of the oldest known celebrations commemorating the end of slavery in the United States.

On June 19, 1865, Union sol-

diers reached Galveston, Texas, with news that the war was over and the slaves were free — two and a half years after President Abraham Lincoln’s Jan 1. 1863, Emancipation Proclamation.

“It’s important to me because it’s about the emancipation of the slaves,” said Audry Bass, one of the event’s organizers.

Aside from celebrating the occasion and being an event aimed at bringing families and the commu-

‘This is the life!’

nity closer together, Bass says the celebration is also about teaching history.

“This is mostly for the kids,” she said. “This is what it’s all about, the kids. It’s so they can learn what it’s all about.”

Bass said about 450 people attended Roswell’s 2010 Juneteenth event and she expected just as many people to gather at Cahoon Park this year.

The family event included a

basketball tournament, music and dancing, singing and guest speakers.

“We intend to have fun today,” Bass said.

Patricia Hopkins was the event’s guest speaker and gave the history surrounding the celebration to all the children and adults at the park.

“Education is important,” she said. “It’s about cultivating our community.”

One of Kermit’s distant relatives, he says the water is the perfect place to be on a hot late-spring day. When he’s not swimming, he can be found perched on lily pads, catching flies or 40 winks, or dodging errant golf balls.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner put partisanship aside, at least on the golf course, and teamed up to triumph on the final hole Saturday in their long-awaited links outing.

The match pitted the political rivals against Vice President Joe Biden and Ohio’s Republican Gov. John Kasich.

The match was won on the 18th hole, with the winning partners each pocketing a $2 prize.

The question now is whether a partnership forged on the tees, fairways and greens of a military base course can yield success in the policy arena.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Fifteen high school students are visiting the nation’s capital, Arlington National Cemetery and Normandy, France, to honor World War II soldiers who died on D-Day. The program organized by the National History Day contest begins Saturday with a dinner in Washington. On Monday, the students will hold a wreath-laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery. World War II veterans are scheduled to meet with the students.

After several days of classes, the delegation of students and their teachers will depart for Normandy.

Next Sunday, the students will hold a ceremony at the American cemetery there honoring soldiers from each of their home states.

The 15 students are from California, Illinois, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Indiana, Nebraska, New Mexico, Missouri, Maryland, Kansas, South Carolina, Rhode Island, New Jersey, and Washington state.

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says kids need quality time, structure and unconditional love from their parents, calling being a dad sometimes his hardest job — but also the most rewarding.

Just ahead of Father’s Day, the president devoted his regular Saturday radio and Inter net address to fatherhood, talking about growing up without a dad, his own failings as a father and the values he hopes to teach his daughters Malia, 12, and Sasha, 10. He described the responsibilities that all fathers have to their children and said his administration is trying to help during tough economic times and long deployments for U.S. troops.

The president spoke of helping to coach Sasha’s basketball team. “In the end, that’s what being a parent is all about — those precious moments with our children that fill us with pride and excitement for their future; the chances we have to set an example or offer a piece of advice; the opportunities to just be there and show them that we love them,” he said.

Obama, who was raised

largely by his grandparents in Hawaii after his father left when he was very young, also talked about what he wishes he’d done differently.

“I felt his absence. And I wonder what my life would have been like had he been a greater presence,” the president said.

“That’s why I’ve tried so hard to be a good dad for my own children. I haven’t always succeeded, of course — in the past, my job has kept me away from home more often than I liked, and the burden of raising two young girls would sometimes fall too heavily on Michelle.”

The president said he’s learned that what children need most is their parents’ time and a structure that instills self-discipline and responsibility, noting that even in the White House Malia and Sasha do their chores and walk the dog.

“And above all, children need our unconditional love,” the president said, “whether they succeed or make mistakes; when life is easy and when life is tough.”

progress on pacts to expand trade with South Korea, Panama and Colombia. The Obama administration wants the pacts but recently threatened to hold up final passage unless lawmakers agree to expand retraining assistance for American workers who lose their jobs because of foreign competition. Republicans say that issue should be addressed separately by the president.

“For the good of our

economy — and our country — he needs to send these free (trade) agreements to the U.S. Senate for approval now, so that U.S. workers and businesses can begin to realize their benefits,” said Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., in the GOP address.

“Our country needs the kind of pro-jobs, progrowth policies that will help us live up to our vision of a strong, peaceful, prosperous America,” he said.

WILDFIRES/CLOSURES UPDATE Arizona PHOENIX (AP) — Some residents evacuated because of wildfires in Arizona and New Mexico were allowed to return to their homes Saturday as firefighters battled strong winds and hot weather to try to keep more houses, dry forests and stretches of high desert from being consumed by the flames.

In eastern Arizona along the New Mexico border, residents of Alpine were allowed to return to their homes Saturday morning after being forced out for more than two weeks, but Greer residents still remained evacuated by the largest wildfire in Arizona’s history.

By late afternoon, authorities were evacuating Luna, N.M., as a precaution as strong easterly winds pushed the Wallow Fire over the New Mexico border.

New Mexico State Forestry spokesman Dan Ware said crews were working to move the fire around Luna, where about 200 people live. A shelter for evacuees was being set up at a high school in Reserve, N.M. The Wallow Fire has consumed about 782 square miles, a little more than 500,000 acres, and more than 4,500 firefighters

Montoya announced in March 2010 that the program would be closing its doors. A month later officials said the program would remain open through June.

Now officials say that, although a new multimillion dollar building is still crucial to its survival, the program will continue in the old building for now. The

were trying to stop its advance. The blaze this week exceeded a 2002 fire that burned 732 square miles and destroyed 491 buildings.

Containment rose to 38 percent Friday night, but more winds were predicted through the weekend with gusts of up to 60 mph possible.

In southern Arizona, a wildfire south of Sierra Vista remained 15 percent contained at 20,506 acres, or 32 square miles. Up to 50 homes already have been destroyed by the Monument Fire and about 12,000 residents remain evacuated as firefighters continue slurry drops to keep the fire from pushing down a canyon and toward the city.

Another wildfire in Cochise County is 70 percent contained after charring about 206,000 acres — more than 320 square miles.

Authorities in southern New Mexico were also looking for “persons of interest” as they searched for the cause of a fire that burned several homes in the wooded community of Ruidoso.

The T rack Fire began June 12 north of Raton and is now 45 percent contained. All remaining evacuated residents were allowed to retur n home Saturday.

Investigators from New Mexico State Forestry and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway say it appears an ATV rider trespassed onto land owned by BNSF railway through access from nearby private property.

The Colfax County Sherif f’s Department now is seeking information on the person or persons riding or operating ATVs in the area near the origin of the fire.

Santa Fe National Forest SANTA FE (AP) — Crews are battling a fire that’s burned up to 200 acres in Santa Fe National Forest about six miles northeast of Tesuque.

Eight air tankers, six engines, two helicopters and three crews are batting the fire with more resources on the way.

San Isabel National Forest DENVER (AP) — Firefighters are working to contain a seven square mile wildfire burning in the southern Colorado mountains ahead of hot, dry, windy weather returning this weekend.

Calmer weather throughout most of the day Saturday helped some 550 firefighters trying to contain the blaze. However, fire information officer Christe Feldmann says the winds began picking up in the after noon and, hot, dry windy weather is expected to move over the area Sunday.

About 350 people in both Custer and Fremont counties have been evacuated because of the fire.

It started Sunday in the San Isabel National Forest and is 15 percent conshirt and a baseball cap, putted for par, tapping in a short shot after missing a 12-footer.

Kasich, a for mer congressman, missed a 30footer, then tapped in for par. Boehner, one of the best golfers in Congress, gave a hearty “Oh yeah!” after draining a short putt.

Obama, who is not in Boehner’s links league, patted the speaker on the back as they headed toward the second hole, the president driving their cart.

After wrapping up the match, the foursome headed to the clubhouse, where they had a cold drink and talked with service members. They also caught some action at the U.S. Open, the professional tour nament going on in suburban Maryland.

say he revels in the chance to get out of the spotlight.

Obama’s penchant for privacy extends to his social life. He surrounds himself with a tight inner circle of family and friends, and rarely socializing with other politicians in Washington. In fact, Saturday’s golf outing was one of the first times Obama and Boehner have gotten together for anything other than a policy meeting.

White House spokesman Jay Carney said earlier in the week that the outing was “meant to be an opportunity for the speaker and the president, as well as the vice president and Ohio governor, to have a conversation, to socialize in a way that so rarely happens in Washington.”

The Obama-Boehner golf outing coincided with White House and congressional negotiations on a long-term deficit reduction plan and

raising the government’s borrowing authority.

Republicans have insisted on significant cuts of about $2 trillion over 10 years or 12 years before agreeing to increase the current $14.3 debt ceiling, which the government says it will surpass Aug. 2.

While aides for both men tried to lower expectations that deal on the deficit — or anything else, for that matter — would be reached on the course. But it could not hurt.

“It may move you a little bit closer toward the kind of compromise that we need to get the things done that the American people expect us to get done,” Carney said. “If it takes a few hours out on the golf course to help that process, I think it’s a worthwhile thing to do.”

OPINION

Roswell Daily Record

State employee rolls decreasing under budget crunch

SANTA FE — Last fall, both gubernatorial candidates promised state employees “no furloughs and no layoffs.”

We could be pretty sure there would be no furloughs. The furloughs in 2010 were wildly unpopular and, more importantly, they were a budget-cutting tool of Gov. Bill Richardson. Both candidates were running away from him.

At the conclusion of the 2011 Legislature, Gov. Susana Martinez and legislative leaders proclaimed the budget that was adopted would require no furloughs and no layoffs.

But layoffs already have begun.

They sometimes are called reductions in force, or RIFs, but the results are the same. On June 10, 44 state employees were told to clean out their desks. They will be paid through the end of the month.

The 44 employees are a drop in the bucket compared to the more than 3,000 reduction in state payrollers as a result of not being

JAY MILLER INSIDE THE CAPITOL

replaced when they left state employment.

That hiring freeze was ordered

by Gov. Richardson in the fall of 2008 and has been continued by Gov. Martinez except in the case of critically needed personnel.

A spokesman for the governor said the layoffs were made in order to streamline state government. Gov. Martinez said during her campaign that she would take a good look at the work of a committee appointed by the Legislature to make recommendations for government restructuring.

Several bills were introduced in the 2011 Legislature to reorganize state government but none of

them got far. It likely didn’t matter.

The governor’s actions thus far indicate she would rather veto legislation and then do it her way. In that respect, she is much like her predecessor.

Some of the agency cuts the governor made were predictable.

She had promised to modify or eliminate any state government rules and regulations that hurt businesses. So the cut in the Regulation and Licensing Department was to be expected.

There likely will be more cuts, especially in the Construction Industries Division. Regulations and inspections have been a major target of this administration.

The Construction Industries Commission has repealed the energy-efficient building codes from the Richardson administration. Public hearings around the state indicate homebuilders are split on the action.

It is a short-term fix to lower construction prices hoping to get the building market going again.

But utility usage will eat into those savings plus require more energy utilization.

Improving public school education was another promise of the governor. So it came as a surprise to see 33 of the 44 cuts last week come from the state Public Education Department. Evidently those 33 employees weren’t ones who were going to help bring about changes in the schools.

Soon after Education SecretaryDesignate Hanna Skandera was appointed, there was talk of her contracting with former colleagues in other states to help strengthen education in New Mexico.

Some wondered where the money would come from to bring in all those consultants. Maybe we have our answer now. If Skandera’s move truly does bring about improved student performance, the questions about her action will cease.

Surprisingly little static has resulted from elimination of the Commission on the Status of

Women. The method of eliminating a statutory body by vetoing its funding is legally dubious.

And the idea that the commission has served its purpose may be even more dubious. Does the election of a female governor mean that the status of women now is equal to the status of men?

Tough economic times hit the private sector before they started affecting public employees. The business world coined a phrase to describe the strategy of applying minimal resources to as many projects as possible. It is called the “peanut-butter spread.” It means spreading employees as thinly as possible.

So far, businesses have continued the peanut-butter strategy even as they are recovering. Many analysts predict the peanut-butter spread will be around for a long time.

EDITORIAL

World Opinion Turkey and Syria

They are both secular states and neighbors, but there is a gulf between what is happening in each. Recently, Turks went to the polls in the eighth democratic election since the military relinquished power in 1983. Meanwhile, President Bashar al-Assad continues to turn his tanks and helicopter gunships on Syrians seeking political liberalization. The contrast is between an open and a closed society, the first producing exceptional economic growth and enhanced regional authority, the second condemning its members to stagnation and pariah status. Yet instability in the one impinges on the other, as the flight of Syrians across the Turkish border is demonstrating.

The immediate foreign policy concern for Ankara now that the elections are over will be how to defuse this situation.

On a turnout of 87 percent the Islamist Justice and Development Party under Recep Tayyip Erdogan has won a historic third victory in a row. However, its failure to achieve a two-thirds majority prevents it from rewriting the constitution without a referendum.

At home, the new administration faces multiple economic challenges. Abroad, attention will continue to be focused on Syria.

Erdogan has condemned the Assad regime for “brutality” which “cannot be condoned.” If any two outside powers could determine the outcome of the crisis, one is Iran, which prefers the status quo ante. The other is Turkey, which recognizes the need for reform. There is no doubt as to which is the more attractive model.

Guest Editorial The Telegraph, London

IMF managing director candidates

With Israel’s central banker, Stanley Fischer, disqualified because of his age, the race for the top post in the International Monetary Fund is now between front-runner Christine Lagarde, the French finance minister, and Agustin Carstens, Mexico’s central bank chief. It also removes the shadow of ArabIsraeli conflict from the contest.

Fischer’s candidacy was considered a long shot, primarily because the fund historically has been led by a European. Still there were fears that he may present a serious challenge to Lagarde, for in the event of a deadlock between the front-runners, Fischer might become a compromise candidate.

The idea that an Israeli might become head of the IMF does not sit well with Arab countries.

The Arab Spring, for all the good it has done in bringing more freedoms to its people, has also greatly hurt their economies.

Lagarde remains the clear favorite, and she has history on her side. She has picked up major support, foremost from the powerful European bloc, where she has been deeply involved in dealing with fiscal crises.

There have been suggestions that Third World countries seek an IMF head from their part of the world so as to reflect the growing role of developing countries in the world economy. But in this case, the belief is that the IMF should stick with tradition.

Guest Editorial Arab News, Riyadh, Saudi Arabia DEAR DR. GOTT: I saw your article about the person who had a wart removed by rubbing chalk on it. I had a wart on my hand for seven years. Then I started teaching, using a blackboard and chalk. A couple of months later, I noticed the wart was getting smaller and eventually it disappeared forever.

My family and friends laughed when I told them I thought it was chalk dust that did it. I’m happy to see someone else agrees with my very unscientific conclusion.

DEAR READER: The white chalk you use in your classroom is generally made from calcium carbonate, a processed form of natural limestone. This chemical

A frightening expansion of police power I bet you didn’t know that federal law enforcement officers representing the Department of Education can break down your front door if you are suspected of violating the law.

I was not aware of this until I heard what happened to Kenneth Wright of Stockton, Calif. On June 7, at 6 a.m., Wright was awakened by a knock on his door. According to his account, he came downstairs in his boxer shorts, but before he could reach the door, federal police officers stormed in. They were looking for his estranged wife, who was not in the house. Wright

Making a difference as a good father

Being a father is much more than just contributing to the conception of a child. Unfortunately, some men think fathering a child ends even prior to conception.

Being a good father is much more difficult and complex. It can be the toughest challenge a real man can have, yet it can also be the most fulfilling.

A child is one thing on this planet that doesn’t come with an instruction manual. Each child is made special and unique. Yet even without a manual there are good ways and bad ways to parent a child.

God made two sexes. Both sexes are needed for mankind to continue to reproduce and to create more of mankind. God also created the family. The attributes and judgment skills of an adolescent child being launched into the world is directly tied to the family (or lack thereof) a child is brought up in.

For example, a child who grows up in a home with both of his parents loving each other and him will have different issues than one who grows up in an abusive home where a father regularly abuses the mother and then disappears when the child is 8 leaving him to be raised the rest of his youth in a single parent home by a mother who must work to survive.

license or to graduate from high school. There is not a single test that has to be passed to conceive a child — not a parenting test or any other. Many children are conceived by a man and a woman who just met earlier that evening.

Still other children are conceived by a man and a woman who, despite a prior relationship, have impaired judgment skills because of their choice to put drugs or alcohol into their body earlier in the day.

So how do we maximize the likelihood of a child being launched into the world with every chance possible to succeed and make a positive impact by the life he or she lives? It takes two parents working together.

There are dimensions that a mother brings to the upraising of a child that only a mother can bring. Then there are dimensions that a father brings to the upraising of a child that only a father can bring. Since today is Father’s Day, let me address dimensions that are provided by a father.

I recently received a mailing from “Focus on the Family” out of Colorado Springs, Colo., that wrote about issues involving fathers. It told about the importance of fathers by setting out five things that fathers do best. I enjoyed reading the brochure and thought it would benefit readers if I shared its message. The brochure states: “1. Fathers teach us empathy.

A study by the American Psychological Association found that children with very involved fathers are more likely to be sensitive to the needs of others.

Effective dads also helped their children become more generous and thoughtful too.

“2. Fathers give us confidence.

Fathers are more likely to challenge their children to try difficult things by taking safe and measured risks. Research shows that a man’s more physical play style — and slower response to help his children through frustrating situations — encourages problem-solving and self-confidence in both boys and girls.

“3. Fathers increase our vocabulary. Children who spend lots of time with Dad are more likely to have larger and more complex vocabularies. That’s because fathers are more likely to speak to their children as they would an adult. This often initiates a vocabulary lesson.

“4. Fathers protect us from

“5. Fathers promote better treatment of women. Find a young woman who won’t be victimized sexually, emotionally or financially, and we’ll show you a woman who most likely has a good dad. Even when a good dad stumbles, if Mom calls him on it and he responds like a gentleman, the kids take note.”

These are interesting results from research on fathers. Unfortunately, for various reasons, many children do not get the benefits of having a good father in their home. It is not the child’s fault, but the total package being launched into our world is a better one if real men step up and are good fathers to their children.

A child learns how to be a husband or wife by watching his or her parents. A girl learns how to be a mother to a child by watching her mother. A boy learns how to be a father to a child by watching his father.

Whitehead says the passage of the U.S. Patriot Act “opened the door to other kinds of invasions” beyond the search for terrorist suspects. Worse, the courts are increasingly approving this cozy association between government and the police. “The problems inherent in these situations,” he says, “are further compounded by the fact that SWAT teams are granted ‘no-knock’ warrants at high rates, such that the warrants themselves are rendered practically meaningless.”

Two recent cases demonstrate the threat. In an 8-1 Supreme Court ruling last month (Kentucky v. King), Whitehead says the court “effectively decimated the Fourth Amendment by giving police more leeway to break into homes or apartments without a warrant when in search of illegal drugs which they suspect might be destroyed if notice were given.”

My challenge today to those who are not fathers is to be grateful for good parenting by fathers in your family or that you interact with. How about a positive comment like “thank you Dad!” or telling your husband or son “I appreciate your efforts to be a good father.”

The best gift a father can give his child is to love his or her mother. The best gift a mother can give her child is to love his or her father.

Resistance, notes Whitehead, can be as simple as saying, “Wait, this is my home. What’s this about?”

If governments are permitted to slowly erode the Fourth Amendment and the public won’t resist, then not only that amendment, but others protecting speech, religion, the right to keep and bear arms and who knows what else could be in jeopardy.

Incidents like the one in Stockton should cause conservatives and liberals to be more vigilant about the encroaching power of government. If a gang of cops, acting on behalf of the Department of Education, can break down your door in possible violation of the Fourth Amendment, then none of us is safe.

The New York Times reports the FBI’s approximately 14,000 agents are being given “significant new powers” that will allow them more freedom to search databases, examine your trash and use surveillance teams to scrutinize the lives of people who attract their attention.

National Night Out 2011 is just around the corner Once again, it is approaching the time for National Night Out 2011!

This will be Roswell’s fourth straight participation in an event that involved 15,110 communities in 2010. There were National Night Out events in all 50 states, U.S. territories, Canadian cities and military bases worldwide.

Some 37 million people participated! Roswell was included in those numbers and here we go again.

National Night Out is designed to: •Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness •Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime programs

MILITARY NEWS

•Strengthen neighborhood spirit and policecommunity partnerships

•Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

We have in this community some 95 neighborhoods as a part of the Neighborhood Watch program. Some of these neighborhoods are, admittedly, not too active and need to be revitalized.

However, there are many groups which are organized, active and important to the security of their neighborhood. Immediately I think of block captains such as the Heckmans,

During a state flaglowering ceremony before the graduation, Ron was very honored to lower the New Mexico state flag, especially since he grew up in the state. Ron will recieve his Senior Master Sgt rank this fall. He graduated from GHS in Roswell in 1991. He is the son of Robert and Becky Ruzek of Roswell.

Army Sgt. Kristopher R. Morash has arrived for duty at the Melrose Park Recruiting Station, Ill.

Morash of Lexington Trace, Murfreesboro, Tenn., and Chryl Maher of Encanto Drive, Roswell.

Kaarina Jager, Linda Kral, Sandra Madero, Julie Morrow, Shirley Simon, and others who do such a wonderful job.

National Night Out 2011 is to be held on August 2.

We are planning it to be done similarly to last year.

That is, different Neighborhood Watch blocks having

an event of their own near their neighborhood. Perhaps an established area would want to join up with the next block or two and have a larger event. For example, Enchanted Hills neighborhoods could have hamburgers and hot dogs at the Enchanted Lands Park. What a nice Neighborhood showing that would be! These National Night Out 2011 block parties can be as structured as you prefer or as informal as you, the neighbors, want them to be. They can be two hours long or six. Maybe it would be better to celebrate your NNO on one of the weekends prior to or just after

August 2. It is not that critical.

Neighborhood Watch is a nationally recognized program in which Roswell is deeply committed. The Roswell Police Department and Chaves County Sheriff’s Office are highly efficient organizations and obviously critical to the community. However, law enforcement agencies must also rely on the citizens and the neighborhoods for some additional help in curbing crime in Roswell and Chaves County.

We will be communicating with all of the Roswell block captains in the next week or so to encourage

Weighing cancer risks, from cellphones to coffee which is more likely?

BY MARILYNN MARCHIONE AP MEDICAL WRITER

You’re sitting in a freshly drywalled house, drinking cof fee from a Styrofoam cup and talking on a cellphone. Which of these is most likely to be a cancer risk?

It might be the sitting, especially if you do that a lot.

Despite all the recent news about possible cancer risks from cellphones, cof fee, styrene and formaldehyde in building materials, most of us probably face little if any danger from these things with ordinary use, health experts say. Inactivity and obesity may pose a greater cancer risk than chemicals for some people.

“We are being bombarded” with messages about the dangers posed by common things in our lives, yet most exposures “are not at a level that are going to cause cancer,” said Dr. Len Lichtenfeld, the American Cancer Society’s deputy chief medical officer.

Linda Birnbaum agrees.

She is a toxicologist who heads the gover nment agency that just declared styrene, an ingredient in fiberglass boats and Styrofoam, a likely cancer risk.

“Let me put your mind at ease right away about Styrofoam,” she said. Levels of styrene that leach from food containers “are hundreds if not thousands of times lower than have occurred in the occupational setting,” where the chemical in vapor for m poses a possible risk to workers. “In finished products, certainly styrene is not an issue,” and exposure to it from riding in a boat “is infinitesimal,” she said.

Carcinogens are things that can cause cancer, but that label doesn’t mean that they will or that they pose a risk to anyone exposed to them in any amount at any time.

They have been in the news because two groups that periodically convene scientists to decide whether something is a carcinogen issued new reports.

Last month, the International Agency for Research on Cancer, part of the World Health Organization, said there is a possibility cellphones raise the risk of brain tumors.

“The operative word is ‘possibility,”’ said Lichtenfeld, who among others has pointed out the thin evidence for this and the fact that cancer rates have

not risen since cellphones came out.

Last week, the National Toxicology Program, part of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences — both of which Birnbaum heads — issued its report.

It adds to the list of known carcinogens formaldehyde, which is in building materials and some hair -straightening products, though Bir nbaum said on-the-job exposure is the main concern. The list also adds a plant substance in some “natural” arthritis remedies, aristolochic acid. Six other things were dubbed “reasonably anticipated” to be carcinogens, including styrene and another herbal medicine ingredient, riddelliine (rih-DELL-een).

Since 1971, the international cancer agency has evaluated more than 900 substances. Just over 100 have been deemed carcinogens, 59 are called probable carcinogens, and 266 others are possible ones.

In this last category of possibles — besides the electromagnetic energy from cellphones — are coffee, engine exhaust and talc-based body powder.

Talc in its natural for m may contain asbestos, though products sold for

home use since the 1970s have been asbestos-free.

Again, most risk is thought to involve occupational or unusual exposure to natural talc.

The evidence on coffee has gone back and forth for years, with no clear sign of danger and some suggestions of benefit.

However, known carcinogens include alcoholic beverages, estrogen treatments for menopause symptoms, birth control pills, certain viruses and parasites, and even some drugs used to treat cancer, such as cyclophosphamide and tamoxifen.

“Most people would probably be shocked to see the number of things they interact with every day” on these lists, Lichtenfeld said.

Here’s the problem: The agencies that pass judgment on a carcinogen don’t regulate it or deter mine what levels or routes of exposure are a concer n and for whom.

“People immediately assume it’s going to cause cancer at any exposure level, and that’s simply not true,” said A. Wallace Hayes, editor of the scientific jour nal Food and Chemical Toxicology, and an industry consultant.

The rule is “RITE” —

Risk Is equal to Toxicity times Exposure — and “they’ve left out half of the equation” by not saying how much exposure is a concern, Hayes said.

“The organizations that list these substances as possibly carcinogenic have to be conservative. That means if there’s any reasonable evidence, way before it’s a sure thing, they have to say, ‘Let’s be cautious.’ That’s their job — to raise the flag,” said David Ropeik, a consultant and author of “How Risky Is It Really? Why Our Fears Don’t Always Match the Facts.”

It’s human nature to fear risks we didn’t choose, such as hazardous chemicals, more than those we did, such as lack of exercise, poor diets or smoking, he said.

“A risk that is imposed on us scares us more than a risk we take voluntarily,” especially if it comes from companies we don’t trust, Ropeik said.

Styrene is an example: The government says it is a component of tobacco smoke and that is the biggest way most people are exposed to it. Smoking, of course, is the most easily preventable cancer risk.

To minimize risk, people can take reasonable meas-

ures to avoid exposure to possibly harmful things, experts say.

“If you walk into a room and you can smell formaldehyde, you probably want to vent the room before you spend a lot of time in it. That’s just common sense,” Bir nbaum said.

If you’re concer ned about pesticides, you can peel fruit and vegetables or choose organics, though there is some evidence that organic products may be less safe in ter ms of germs like E. coli and salmonella.

People worried about cellphones can hold them farther from the head, text-message instead of talk, or use a headset or earpiece as Lichtenfeld does. He was retur ning from a major cancer conference in Chicago last week when a fellow traveler pointed at Lichtenfeld’s Bluetooth earpiece and said, “Do you know that thing can cause cancer?”

“I said, ‘Yes, ma’am, I’m very familiar with the data and I choose to use Bluetooth,”’ said Lichtenstein, who didn’t tell her he was one of the biggest cancer experts she’d ever meet.

“You can’t live life in fear,” he said. “You have to live life.”

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS CRAWFORD PUT ON 15 DAY DL BOSTON (AP) — The Boston Red Sox placed left fielder Carl Crawford on the 15-day disabled list before Saturday’s game against the Milwaukee Brewers.

Crawford, a top free agent acquisition by Boston during the offseason, was hurt after straining his left hamstring beating out an infield hit in a 10-4 win over the Brewers on Friday night.

“The medical people thought at least 10, 14 days (that he’d be out),” Boston manager Terry Francona said. “I talked to (Carl) this morning. He gets it.”

One of the top free agents available this past offseason, Crawford signed a $142-million, seven-year deal with the Red Sox. After a slow start, he became a big contributor during Boston’s current hot stretch. The Red Sox have won 12 of 13 entering Saturday night’s game against the Brewers.

Boston recalled outfielder Josh Reddick from Triple-A Pawtucket to take Crawford’s place on the roster. He hit .230 with 14 homers and 36 RBIs for Pawtucket.

Crawford is batting .243 with six homers, 31 RBIs and eight stolen bases.

Darnell McDonald was scheduled to start on Saturday. Reddick and veteran Mike Cameron are also expected to get some time in left.

“I think we’ll fill in with Josh, Mac and Cam,” Francona said. “We’ll just piece it together.”

During a slow start, Crawford was moved around a lot in the order. He was hitting just .155 with one homer and six RBIs at the end of April.

I N VA D E R S UPDATE INVADERS DOWN PUPFISH, 9-5 ALAMOGORDO — Roswell scored six runs in the first inning and never looked back in a 9-5 victory over the White Sands Pupfish, Saturday.

The Invaders’ Mike McCravey pitched five innings and picked up the win, while Brandon Godfrey and Anthony Carillo pitched a combined four innings in relief and gave up only one run.

With the win, Roswell improved to 15-12.

SPORTS B McIlroy stays hot with 68 Roswell Daily Record

BETHESDA, Md. (AP) — Rory McIlroy kept punishing the golf course and the record book Saturday, setting himself up with an eight-shot lead at the U.S. Open with 18 holes left between him and his first major championship.

In a third round that felt more like a regular day on tour than the toughest test in golf, McIlroy shot 3under -par 68 to finish at 14-under 199, breaking Jim Furyk’s record for the best 54-hole score by one stroke.

McIlroy leads Y.E. Yang (70) by eight and Lee Westwood (65), Jason Day (65) and Robert Garrigus (68) by nine.

The 22-year -old from Northern Ireland will sleep on the lead heading into the final day of a major for the second straight time. But this lead is double the size of the one he held at the Masters two months ago, when he blew up on the back nine, shot 80 and finished 15th.

“Overall, I’m very happy with the way I played today,” McIlroy said. “Now, I just have to do that for 18 more holes.”

Knowing their chances were slim to catch the leader, the rest of the field took its frustration out on Congressional, a softy of a

course thanks to forgiving rough and rain-soaked greens.

There were 26 rounds under par, a record for the third round of the U.S. Open, and the 72 players carded a total of 224 birdies.

Could’ve been a scary scene for McIlroy, who saw the mid-60s on the board before he ever reached the first tee box, but he didn’t waver.

He played scrambling golf

over the first few holes, while he was having trouble finding the fairway, then made birdies on No. 5, 9, 11 and 14 to get to 14-under, a number never seen before on a U.S. Open scoreboard.

Of course, that’s old news by now. On Friday, McIlroy reached 13 under for the first time in U.S. Open history and took a record-tying six-stroke cushion into the weekend.

His eight-shot advantage is two short of the lead Tiger

Woods took to Sunday at Pebble Beach in 2000, when he routed the field by 15 shots. Though McIlroy is drawing comparisons to Woods, he wants no part of it.

“I’m still looking for my first one,” McIlroy said.

“That’s all I can say. I’m looking for my first one. I put myself in good position to do it tomorrow and we’ll see what happens.”

The way he’s playing, and with a cushion as soft as

the golf course he’s overrunning, it would take something of epic proportions to prevent it.

The rest of the players realize that.

“When you go in 12 behind somebody, you can play as well as you’d like to play but it’s still going to be a matter of the leader coming back to you,” Westwood said. “No use thinking about what Rory’s doing. But I’ve See OPEN, Page B2

Rangers nip Braves 5-4 in 10 innings

ATLANTA (AP) — Eight years after he was drafted

by Atlanta and four years after he was traded to Texas, Matt Harrison wouldn’t let a rain delay decide when he was going to leave his first game against the Braves.

Harrison remained in the game following a delay of 2 hours, 16 minutes, Adrian Beltre drove in the goahead run with an RBI single in the 10th inning and the Rangers beat the Braves 5-4 on Saturday.

Johnson, Gators top Texas 8-4 at CWS OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Brian Johnson delivered the big blow this time.

In the lineup for the first time in three weeks after suffering a freak concussion, Johnson broke open a close game with a two-run double that helped send Florida to an 8-4 victory over Texas at the College World Series on Saturday night.

“Sully talked to me before the at-bat,” Johnson said, referring to coach Kevin O’Sullivan. “He said it’s going to be a big at-bat for the game. So I just went up there really looking for one pitch I could drive. And I ended up getting that pitch.

“I was really excited to get back out there after three weeks not being able to play.”

Johnson, the Gators’

designated hitter and No. 2 starter, was knocked out by a throw from catcher Mike Zunino while pitching in the Southeastern Conference tournament May 28.

Zunino, Johnson’s roommate, tripped trying to throw out a runner at second base and hit Johnson in the back of the head.

It turned out Johnson’s big hit in the seventh inning should have been ruled a home run. Replays See CWS, Page B2 AP Photo

CWS newcomer Vanderbilt beats UNC, 7-3

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Vanderbilt was no nervous newcomer to the College World Series.

Connor Harrell hit the first CWS home run in the new TD Ameritrade Park to break a sixth-inning tie and three relievers held North Carolina scoreless on three hits the last five innings in the Commodores’ 7-3 victo-

ry Saturday.

After first baseman Aaron Westlake made a diving stop of Chaz Frank’s hard grounder and touched the bag for the final out, there were just the normal handshakes and backslaps behind the pitcher’s mound.

The Commodores (53-10) will save the dogpile for,

they hope, the championship game in about 10 days.

“That was a big victory for us,” Vanderbilt coach T im Corbin said. “You never know how you’re going to react the first time.”

Vanderbilt played as it has for most of the season — including its knack for

one after blowing an early 4-0 lead.

The delay came with two outs in the bottom of the fifth.

Harrison made an impression on both dugouts when he returned to pitch into the seventh inning.

“He wasn’t going to give up the ball until he had to give it up,” Texas manager Ron Washington said.

Harrison said he threw every 20 minutes in the indoor hitting cage.

“I was able to stay loose and keep my body going through the long rain delay,” said Harrison, who said he had never before retur ned after a delay longer than 45 minutes.

“I wanted to make sure if I got stiff I was coming out of the game,” he said.

Washington said Harrison “said he was feeling good” and then proved it

played with big leads in the past. It’s not easy. We’ll see what happens.”

McIlroy did, in fact, make a bogey on No. 10 after hitting his tee shot on the par3 into a back bunker.

But he came back on No. 11, hitting an approach shot from the rough to 18 feet, then sinking the putt and fist pumping as he walked to grab the ball from the hole.

That put him back at 13under par. On 14, he hit his approach to 6 feet and made that.

On the front side, McIlroy wasn’t nearly as locked in early Saturday as he was during the first two rounds,

scoring big runs with two outs — and North Carolina (50-15) got a so-so start from Patrick Johnson and left 16 runners on base.

“That’s pretty much the tale of the game for us, offensively,” North Carolina coach Mike Fox said.

Conrad Gregor tied it with two outs in the sixth with his double off the top of the wall, and Harrell followed with his two-run homer. Two-out singles by Tony Kemp and Anthony Gomez produced two insurance runs in the eighth.

“Coach Corbin told us to prepare like any other game, like another SEC home opener,” Kemp said.

“Everyone was making jokes, we prepared the same and we were lucky to get the ‘W’ today. It was a good job by the team.”

Vanderbilt, the No. 6 national seed, advanced to a Bracket 1 game Monday night against the winner of Saturday night’s TexasFlorida game. No. 3-seeded North Carolina plays the loser of that game Monday afternoon.

The 24,500-seat TD Ameritrade Park opened to much fanfare, but the crowd of 22,745 was well short of a sellout on a warm, humid afternoon.

The $131 million ballpark replaces Rosenblatt Stadi-

by taking pressure off the bullpen.

“You saw he didn’t lose much,” Washington said.

“Very gritty.”

Following the delay, pitching coach Mike Maddux stood behind the mound as Harrison made his warm-up throws.

“I’ve never really seen anybody come back,” Atlanta’s Dan Uggla said of Harrison. “He showed a lot of what he’s made of tonight.”

Harrison gave up a sixth-inning homer to Brian McCann for the only ear ned run he allowed.

The right-hander gave up three runs, one earned, on three hits in 6 1-3 innings.

He left with a 4-3 lead.

The Braves tied it in the eighth. Left-hander Darren Oliver made a wild throw to first for an error after fielding Jordan Schafer’s bunt, allowing Schafer to race to second.

Uggla, who had a runscoring double in the third, followed with a tying

RBI double off the top of the wall in center, only inches shy of a go-ahead home run.

Ian Kinsler led off the 10th with a double of f Scott Proctor (1-1), who was pitching in his third straight game. Kinsler stayed at second on a groundout by Elvis Andrus, who had three hits. Proctor issued an intentional walk to Josh Hamilton before Beltre lined the run-scoring single to center.

Mark Lowe (2-1) struck out the side in the ninth.

Neftali Feliz pitched a perfect 10th for his 14th save.

The Rangers’ only other road win in a one-run game this season was a 54 decision in 11 innings at Kansas City on May 18.

The Braves have lost five of six, including the first two games of the series.

The Braves, who had three errors in Friday night’s 6-2 loss to Texas, added two fielding miscues in the first inning Satur-

day, helping the Rangers score two runs.

Kinsler led of f with a single and scored from first when a hit-and-run single to right field by Andrus skipped past Jason Heyward for the first error.

Andrus scored when Hamilton’s grounder bounced off first baseman Freddie Freeman’s glove for another error.

The Rangers pushed the lead to 4-0 in the third.

Andrus singled and scored from third on a doublesteal. Michael Young’s single drove in Hamilton, who reached on a fielder’s choice grounder.

Harrison recorded eight straight outs before Derek Lowe’s double over right fielder Mitch Moreland’s head with two outs in the third. Left fielder Nelson Cruz dropped Schafer’s line drive for an error, allowing Lowe to score.

Uggla’s double drove in Schafer to cut the Texas lead to 4-2.

“I thought it went out,” O’Sullivan said. “But you don’t know. It’s a tough call.”

The No. 2 national-seeded Gators are just glad to be off to a winning start in the CWS after going two games and out last year in Omaha.

Florida (51-17) moves to a Bracket 1 winners’ game against Vanderbilt on Monday night. No. 7 seed Texas (49-18) meets North Carolina in an elimination game that afternoon.

“We came here last year and we were very disappointed to go two-and-

done,” Florida’s Daniel Pigott said. “So to start out this way — having a great game, good pitching, solid hitting — I think it was very, very big for us. Definitely going to give us a lot of confidence going through the rest of the tournament.”

Hudson Randall (11-3) followed up a terrific eightinning outing in the super regionals against Mississippi State with another 6 2-3 strong innings against the Longhorns, who are in the CWS for a record 34th time.

Randall scattered five

hits, walked none and struck out five. Only one of the four runs against him was earned.

Randall, Greg Larson and Maronde limited Texas to five hits, with Maronde earning his third save with two innings of no-hit relief.

Randall retired 13 straight batters starting in the third inning. Jacob Felts broke through with a two-out single in the seventh, and Jordan Etier followed with a run-scoring double to cut Florida’s lead to 5-4 and bring on Larson.

setting up the toughest courses on the planet. But Congressional hasn’t lived up to that reputation.

All the players knew it, even the ones who weren’t taking advantage.

“The rough isn’t quite as gnarly as at some other U.S. Opens,” world No. 1 Luke Donald said after shooting 3-over 74. “It has a different feel. It almost feels like the Firestone or something. But it’s still tough out there.

Some tough pins and you’ve got to play well to shoot a good score.”

Day was among those with the good scores. The 23-year-old, who finished second at the Masters, did not make a bogey and finished the day with a birdie on No. 18.

He scoffed at the idea that

everyone but McIlroy was playing for second. But as the day wore on and McIlroy’s play kept getting better, the inevitable was starting to set in.

when he set the 36-hole U.S. Open scoring record at 11-under 131. He missed fairways on 1, 3, 8 and 9 on the front side and pushed his approach into a greenside bunker on No. 4. But he made par or better on all those holes and his lead — six shots at the beginning of the day — never shrank.

The tone was set early, when Webb Simpson shot 5-under 66 to move to 1 under.

“The golf course is pretty soft. The greens are soft,” said Simpson, who made seven birdies. “I got a couple good lies in the rough today that I probably didn’t deserve. I think you’ll see some pretty good scores like mine, and some pretty high scores, too.”

Former President George W. Bush threw out the ceremonial first pitch after his father, for mer President George H.W. Bush, delivered a video message declaring a new era for college baseball at the $131 million stadium. The elder Bush played for Yale in the first CWS in 1947 in Kalamazoo, Mich.

Corey Williams (2-0) worked 2 2-3 innings of scoreless relief for Vanderbilt starter Sonny Gray.

Johnson (13-2), who had allowed three earned runs in his previous 45 innings, was tagged for four earned — five total — in six innings.

“I definitely didn’t have my best stuf f,” Johnson said. “They’re such a good hitting team. You can’t leave balls over the middle of the plate. I did that a couple times today, and they made me pay. But I wasn’t as sharp as I’ve been.”

Williams came on in the fifth to strike out Frank after Gray, the Oakland Athletics’ first-round draft pick, walked the bases loaded.

“The fifth inning was the decider,” Corbin said. “They had 20 guys reach base today. The fact they scored

three runs, we’re fortunate.

Corey’s strikeout with the bases loaded was big.”

Frank said he and his teammates simply were unable to deliver timely hits.

“I think they buckled down, especially when they had runners on base, when they had two outs, and I think their crowd got them into it,” Frank said.

Gray lasted 4 2-3 innings, the shortest of his 18 starts since going 4 1-3 in the season opener. He allowed three runs on eight hits, walked a season-high five and hit Colin Moran with a pitch that forced in a run in the fourth.

Vandy tied it at 3 in the sixth when Gregor drove a ball off the yellow line atop the wall in left center, and then Harrell hit Johnson’s 3-1 slider for his eighth homer of the season and a two-run lead.

“We knew Johnson has a pretty good arm,” Harrell said. “He was living off the outside part of the plate and was throwing breaking balls. He left it up per se, and I got it in that jetstream.”

Harrell said he didn’t find a lot of significance in hitting the first CWS home run at the new stadium.

“I guess it’s a pretty good trivia fact,” he said.

AP Photo Texas Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre, left, and first baseman Michael Young celebrate after a win against the Atlanta Braves, Saturday.

The 6-foot-8, 225-pound right-hander caught Tant Shepherd looking at strike three to end the threat.

Taylor Jungmann (133), the Milwaukee Brewers’ first-round draft pick, had another rough postseason outing for the Longhorns.

He went 4 1-3 innings for his shortest start of the season, and four of the five runs against him were earned.

Jungmann, who started the season 13-0, had come into the CWS off losses in his previous two starts. He allowed two doubles and a single, walked four, hit a

batter and threw two wild pitches.

“I felt for the first three innings I had decent command, but after that I fell out of rhythm,” Jungmann said. “I walked more guys than I usually do. They took advantage of it, and that was about it.”

Now the Longhorns find themselves in a familiar position. They had to win three straight in regionals after losing their second game, and they came back to win two in a row against Arizona State after losing the opener of their super regional.

Nationals double up Baltimore, Yankees top Cubs

WASHINGTON (AP) — All of a sudden, Nationals Park is a fun place to play and a popular destination for baseball fans.

Michael Morse put Washington ahead with a sixthinning homer, Ryan Zimmerman also connected, and the Nationals beat the Baltimore Orioles 4-2 Saturday for their eighth straight victory.

Just over a week ago, Washington was stumbling along in last place with a 27-36 record. Now the Nationals are within a game of .500 (35-36) and in third place in the NL East behind Philadelphia and Atlanta.

“It’s very significant,” manager Jim Riggleman said. “We felt like, we’re not going to catch the Phillies tomorrow, we’re not going to catch the Braves tomorrow. Let’s attack each game and set a goal that maybe we can attain. Let’s get to .500, and if we do that, we can set some more goals.”

Playing in his fifth game since being activated from the disabled list, Zimmerman had two hits, including a double that ignited a three-run uprising in the sixth. Washington is averaging 7.4 runs since his return.

He’s delighted to be back, and his teammates couldn’t be happier to have him.

“Just being around these guys, I think it’s fun to come to the park every day and play,” Zimmer man said. “I’m just having a good time playing hard, and good things are happening.”

The Nationals’ winning streak is their longest since an eight-game run from Aug. 2-9, 2009, and the fans are starting to take notice.

The interleague matchup of nearby rivals drew a crowd of 36,614, the second-largest of the season at Nationals Park behind opening day. The teams drew 35,562 fans on Friday night.

Granted, plenty in attendance were wearing Orioles orange. But Baltimore fans were by far the minority.

Jordan Zimmermann (56) gave up two runs and eight hits in 6 1-3 innings to win a third consecutive decision. The right-hander has not allowed more than three runs in nine successive starts since April 26.

“The last couple starts have been good,” he said.

“This one, it was good, but I didn’t have my best stuff.”

Adam Jones homered for the Orioles, who have lost six of seven to fall a season-worst six games under .500 (31-37). After wasting 18 hits on Friday night, Baltimore stranded eight and went 2 for 7 with runners in scoring position.

“We just have to be able to get the big hit,” Jones said. “We have to be able to get the runner in. That’s what it is. It’s not a lack of baserunners, it’s not a lack of opportunities. It’s just a lack of production.”

Starter Brian Matusz (12) absorbed his second straight loss and left in the sixth inning with cramping in his left hamstring.

Asked if he was concerned about missing his next start, Matusz said, “I would say no. I don’t think it’s a strain or anything like that. It’s just a cramp.”

With the score tied at 1, the Nationals went ahead for good in the sixth. Zimmerman hit a one-out double and Morse followed with his 13th home run. Ivan Rodriguez added an RBI double of f reliever Clay Rapada.

J.J. Hardy singled in a run in the seventh, but that’s as close as the Orioles would come. Drew Storen worked a per fect ninth for his 17th save in 19 tries.

Matusz was making his fourth start since being activated from the disabled list on June 1 after missing two months with a strained muscle in his left side. In

his previous appearance, he yielded four runs, five hits and four walks in 1 1-3 innings against the Tampa Bay Rays, who openly wondered whether the left-hander was at full strength.

Matusz pitched well for five innings against Washington but came unglued in the sixth. He was charged with four runs and six hits in 5 1-3 innings.

Yankees 4, Cubs 3 CHICAGO (AP) — Curtis Granderson hit a tiebreaking sacrifice fly in the sixth inning and Brett Gardner made a terrific play in the outfield to lead the New York Yankees to a victory over the Chicago Cubs on Saturday.

Granderson, who was born in nearby Blue Island, also had two hits and a walk as the Yankees won for the seventh time in nine games, bouncing back from a 3-1 loss in the opener of their first series at Wrigley Field in eight years.

Granderson’s fly ball to deep right put New York ahead 3-2, but the Yankees almost blew it with shoddy fielding behind A.J. Burnett (7-5), who struck out eight in 5 1-3 innings.

Errors on shortstop Eduardo Nunez and second baseman Robinson Cano helped Chicago load the bases with one out in the bottom of the sixth. Geovany Soto then hit a sinking liner to left of f Cory Wade, but Gardner tracked it down and made a strong one-hop throw to catcher Russell Martin, who held on for the final out after Carlos Pena slammed into him.

Wade pumped his right arm behind the plate when the play was over and Gardner sprinted in from the outfield as the Yankees bounced off the field.

Hector Noesi and David Robertson each worked a perfect inning for New York before Nunez also atoned for his error with an RBI double in the ninth. Mariano Rivera allowed two hits, including Reed Johnson’s leadoff homer, but still managed to close it out for his 17th save in 20 opportunities.

Pena hit a two-run homer and Starlin Castro added two more hits for the Cubs, who had won four of five.

Castro has at least two hits in five of his last six games and is batting .415 (17 for 41) in his last 10 games overall.

A crowd of 42,236 filled Wrigley Field for the middle game of this rare weekend series between two of baseball’s most popular teams, setting a season high for the second straight day.

But this one had a much stronger Yankees presence than Friday’s opener.

Alex Rodriguez was welcomed with a “roll call” greeting from a group of New York fans sitting in the bleachers. There were several “Let’s go Yankees!” chants, and Rivera and Jorge Posada each received a loud ovation when they entered the game.

Cubs starter R yan Dempster (5-6) was in trouble throughout the game, setting season highs with six walks and 119 pitches.

The right-hander allowed three runs and eight hits in 5 1-3 innings.

Dempster wriggled out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the first, striking out Robinson Cano and Nick Swisher to end the inning.

But he got into trouble again in the third.

With one out and runners on the corners, Cano hit a smash down the rightfield line to give the Yankees a 1-0 lead. Rodriguez moved to third on Cano’s RBI double and scored his 1,800th run on Swisher’s sacrifice fly, snapping a tie with Ted Williams for 16th on the career list.

Martin then walked and stole second before Dempster struck out Nunez to end the inning, leaving runners on second and

third.

Twins 1, Padres 0 MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Scott Baker struck out 10 over eight dominant innings and Danny Valencia homered to lift the surging Minnesota Twins to a win over the San Diego Padres on Saturday night.

Baker (5-4) allowed four hits and walked one as the Twins won for the sixth time in a row and 13th time in 15 games. Matt Capps pitched the ninth for his 11th save.

Father’s Day a special start to Wade’s summer

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (AP) — Dwyane Wade is getting used to being a father. And a son.

This is a Father’s Day weekend like none other for the Miami Heat star. Instead of lamenting over the NBA finals loss to the Dallas Mavericks — yes, it still hurts, to the point where he’s still avoiding television in case replays pop up — he was spending Saturday flanked by his two sons and their once-estranged grandfather at a jam-packed South Florida water park, enduring long lines because it’s what his kids wanted.

Three generations of family, together.

It wasn’t long ago when Wade feared he wouldn’t have any of them as mainstays in his life. Not anymore.

“It makes me feel whole,” Wade said.

This is the Heat star’s new normal: 6:45 a.m. alarm clocks in the house because his kids like to rise early, schedules posted everywhere to coordinate where everyone is, reviewing daily logs from the nanny when he’s traveling, karate lessons and Spanish classes and carpooling and video games and birthday parties.

He could have spent his days in clubs surrounded by bottles of bubbly; instead, on his kitchen counter these days, there’s a bottle of bubbles.

He’s never been happier.

The financial aspects of his divorce from Siohvaughn Funches Wade may not be complete until fall, but the marriage is officially dis-

solved and he now controls custody of his children — 9year-old Zaire and 4-yearold Zion. On Father’s Day, that’s enough to at least soothe the small matter of getting to the NBA finals and seeing someone else hoist the trophy.

“Every day, I’m constantly learning how different they are, which is crazy,” Wade said during in an interview with The Associated Press at his gated home. “Zaire, his personality is starting to come out. He’s always on the move. He’s into girls now.

He’s always busy. He’s into everything. Zion is all about him. Zaire will share. Zion, he knows everything’s about him. I learn more every day.”

As he’s saying this, Wade is sitting in a room with a Ushaped couch that could probably sit 20 people comfortably, with a dark hardwood floor and view of his backyard pool. Among the many pieces of artwork on the walls is a signed photo of himself and Heat teammates LeBron James and Chris Bosh, which isn’t far from a painting of Wade in his Marquette uniform.

Yet on the television, in a constant loop? Alvin and The Chipmunks.

“That’s Zion,” Wade said, just shaking his head and laughing as he reaches for the mute button on the remote.

The kids seem completely comfortable in their surroundings. Zaire answered the door for a visitor on Friday, hand outstretched with a big “How are you?” Zion nodded and waved, then went back to playing imme-

diately, undeterred by the half-dozen or so adults milling about in the family kitchen. The adjustment of moving in with their dad has been relatively seamless.

Dwyane Wade is quick to point out that as a father, he’s still learning many things and needs plenty of help — a nanny, his mother Jolinda, his sister Tragil and others — to make sure there’s no missteps. But his efforts are getting noticed.

Wade recently was honored by the National Fatherhood Initiative, for “his dedication to his two sons” given the demands of being a professional athlete and single father.

“He gives dads everywhere a great example,” said NFI President Roland C. Warren.

In Wade’s mind, one of the most interesting aspects of getting custody of his sons is that parts of their stories are incredibly similar to his own.

There are wild differences, of course: Instead of growing up in rundown apartments and always being broke in Chicago, Wade’s sons are getting settled into posh new South Florida digs, with a dad who makes, by some estimates, around $40 million annually.

Take all that away, and the fundamental roots are evident.

— Dwyane Wade was 9 when he starting living with his father after a divorce.

Zaire is 9.

— Dwyane was about 4 months old when his parents split up. Zion was about 4 months old when his parents split up.

“It’s crazy when you think

about it,” Wade said.

About five years ago, Wade was entering the realm of NBA superstardom after Miami won the 2006 title, with him the finals MVP. Around the same time, Wade and his father began mending their fences, after years of strained relations. His father remains largely out of the public eye, though he’s been in Miami for much of the past half-decade.

Having his dad around, Wade said, is helping him be a better father for his own

boys.

“A lot of things that happened in my life are some of the same steps that he went through,” Wade said. “A lot of steps I’ve taken in my life are like my dad’s, and I tried so hard not to be like him growing up.”

The one thing Wade has learned since gaining custody: His kids really don’t care if the Heat win or lose.

The day after Miami’s season ended with the Game 6 loss in the finals to Dallas, Wade was ill and ailing.

Everything ached, and he remained hidden from the world and in his bedroom until nearly 6 p.m. Monday, one day after the loss to the Mavericks.

Then he heard the kids downstairs.

“Carrying on like nothing happened,” Wade said. “So I got up. I went outside with them. Shot a few baskets. It still hurts. But I had to be out there for them.”

His entire offseason is built around the kids’ schedules.

Barber battled depression, says he needs football

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Tiki Barber says failures off the field after his retirement from football in 2006 led to a yearlong bout with depression.

The 36-year-old Barber, the New York Giants’ career leading rusher, acknowledged in an HBO report to be aired Tuesday that he now needs football more than it needs him.

Barber has spent the past four months working out in an attempt to make a comeback, although his chances rest on the league and its players reaching a new collective bargaining agreement.

Barber said football represents a necessary anchor in a life turned upside down by the depressive aftermath of scandalous divorce and disintegration of his television career.

“The game never needs you because there’s always someone else to come and take your place,” he said.

“But right now, I need the game.”

The Associated Press attempted to telephone Barber, but his old cell phone number now leaves a message saying the person who has the number is not available.

“I need to prove to myself that I can be successful at something,” he told HBO. “I know I’m going to be successful as a football player. I don’t know why. The odds say ‘No.’ I’m 36 and I haven’t played in four years. But I just know.”

The report recounts the downward spiral Barber’s life took shortly after his retirement. What started as a promising career as an NBC football analyst ended in his firing. His marriage to his college sweetheart collapsed.

And his relationship with a 23-year -old NBC intern which continues today soiled a well-honed, family man image.

Barber said he was unable to deal with losing his $2 million per year job, which started as a football analyst for Football Night in America

and progressed to a featured role on the Today Show. But his demotion to on-field duties and, eventually, to unemployment, led to depression.

“I crafted this career, right?” he said. “And I had gotten to the point where I was right where I wanted to be and then I failed. It’s hard to deal with.”

Barber said after his job at NBC ended, he didn’t do anything for a solid year.

“I remember there were days where I would literally wake up, have coffee, get something to eat and sit on the couch and do nothing for 10 hours,” he said. “I started to shrivel. I didn’t have that confidence. I didn’t have the, that aura anymore.”

Barber said his marriage actually started to crack six months after he ended his 10-year playing career.

His well-honed image as all-around good guy would take a huge hit when he moved in with Tracy Lynn Johnson while his wife was pregnant with twins.

The story that hit the tabloids painted him as an adulterer, though Barber said he and his wife had separated before he accelerated his relationship with Tracy.

“I was in a bad marriage,” Barber said in the interview “It was in trouble for a long time. And we decided to get separated. But Ginny got pregnant in the middle of it.

And a lot of people think children save marriages; sometimes it makes it worse.

And we split soon after she was pregnant.

“And I was on my own for a few days, and then I moved in with Tracy. And then, five months later, here comes the New York Post stalking me.”

Barber said he never second-guesses his relationship with his girlfriend.

“NBC, marriage. I mean, the only thing that felt right was Tracy,” Barber said. “It was the only thing that made me not really feel depressed.”

B6 Sunday, June 19, 2011 OBITUARIES

Walter J. Hopkins, M.D.

Walter Jones Hopkins, Jr., known to most as “Hoppy,” went to be with the Lord on June 17, 2011, at Heartfelt Manor, in Roswell, at the age of 87.

He was bor n June 30, 1923, in Ft. Worth, Texas, to Walter Jones Hopkins Sr. and Anna Theresa Bauer.

It was the loss of his father from appendicitis when Hoppy was 8 years old, that charted his course towards medicine, but there were a few bumps in the road before he achieved his medical degree in 1955 from the University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston. Hoppy’s mother contracted tuberculosis, rendering her unable to care for her two children; therefore, Hoppy and his younger sister Ora Mae “Dinkie,” were raised in the Masonic Home in Ft. Worth, Texas.

Following his graduation in 1941 from the Masonic Home High School, Hoppy enlisted in the U.S. Navy and was trained as a naval aviator. He was assigned to Torpedo Squadron Four (VT-4), about which a book has been written. This squadron was one of the Navy’s most remarkable and effective airborne combat units during World War II, as documented in the book. His squadron served three tours of duty: one in the Atlantic on the USS Ranger, participating with the British Home Fleet; one on the USS Bunker Hill, in the Pacific, starting with strikes on the Philippines; and the third on the USS Essex, ending with the invasion of Okinawa. During his last tour of duty, he narrowly escaped death

OBITUARIES/NATION aboard the Essex when it was hit by a Japanese kamikaze plane. Following three years of active duty as a lieutenant, Hoppy was honorably discharged from the service. He then enlisted in the U.S. Naval Air Reserves, serving from 1945-1961. For his patriotic service, Hoppy received the Distinguished Flying Cross, Navy Air Medal, American Defense Ribbon, Pacific Theatre Ribbon with three stars and the Philippine Liberation Ribbon with two stars.

While in college, Hoppy met Florine Newberg and they were married June 6, 1947, in Ft. Worth. He earned his B.A. degree in education in 1949 from North Texas State Teachers College in Denton. Hoppy and Florine moved to Lovington, where he took a teaching and coaching position at Lovington High School. He left Lovington in 1951 to pursue his lifelong dream of becoming a doctor, after he was accepted to medical school. Following his internship at Harris Hospital in Ft. Worth, the Hopkins returned to Lovington in 1956, and Hoppy began his family medicine and surgery, practice.

Hoppy was an active member and officer of numerous local, state, and national medical organizations over the years. He was a member of the First United Methodist Church and the Masonic Lodge No. 46.

Hoppy served on the Lovington School Board for eight years.

Hoppy remarried in 1969 to Gail Campell Marsh.

They moved to Picacho, where they resided at Casa Linda for a number of years. While living in the Hondo Valley, Hoppy changed his specialty to emergency medicine and he staf fed ERs in cities throughout Southeastern New Mexico and West Texas. While living at Casa Linda, he was struck by lightning in 1988. Hoppy and Gail moved to Lubbock, in 1995, where he established an occupational medicine practice until retiring in 2005. At that time, they returned to Lovington,where Gail lost her battle with cancer. Hoppy’s last four years were spent with family in Roswell.

Hoppy was preceded in death by his parents; sister; wife; and first grandchild Shayna Leigh Hopkins-Puma.

Those left behind to cherish his memories are Florine Hopkins Matthews and their four children; Michael Hopkins; Mark Hopkins and his wife, Sharon; Anne Puma and her husband Bob; and Gail Butler Shadix and her hus-

band Bob; grandchildren, Olivia Hopkins and her fiancé, Aryon Hoselton; Daniel Hopkins; Ariel Hopkins; Andrew Hopkins; Jini Puma and her husband, Eric Rice; Kristi “Cissy” Puma; Scott Puma; Ben Butler; Kelley Butler and her husband, Jared Ford; Leeanne Shadix and her husband, Robert Graf; Sandy Shadix and her husband, Michael Back; Kenda Collins and her husband Cris Giron; Kern Collins and her husband, Donald Fresquez; and great-grandchildren, extended family members, and lifelong friends.

The staf fs of Heartfelt Manor and Vista Care are extended a special thank you for the exceptional care, support and love showered on Hoppy and his family. Hoppy will always be remembered by his family for his zest for life; his spirit of adventure; his love of mankind and animals; and his dedication to the service of others. Please take a moment to share your thoughts and memories with the family in the online register book at andersonbethany.com.

Hoppy was cremated according to his wishes and will be intered at a future date in the DFW National Cemetery in Dallas. In lieu of flowers, friends may send memorials in his honor to the Lovington High School College Scholarship Fund sponsored by the Class of 1969. Contributions may be made online or remitted directly to either the New Mexico Junior College or Eastern New Mexico University, designating such memorial funds to the LHS Alumni Scholarship.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry not a 2012 candidate just yet

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — A candidate in waiting, Texas Gov. Rick Perry is elbowing the Republicans already in the 2012 presidential race as he courts party activists, operatives and donors still shopping for someone to back against President Barack Obama.

His appearance Saturday at the Republican Leadership Conference offered yet another tantalizing hint that he’s ready to upend a crowded field of candidates who have worked months to amass name recognition, organization and campaign cash. The longest serving governor of his state drew much interest despite little effort so far to put together a traditional campaign.

“I stand before you today as a disciplined conservative Texan, a committed Republican and a proud American, united with you to restoring our nation and revive the American dream,” Perry said during an address that repeatedly drew the crowd to its feet.

He sounded every bit a candidate.

“Our shared conservative values, our belief in the

individual is the great hope of our nation,” he said.

Perry has long insisted he wouldn’t run. But in recent weeks, he has softened his refusals and his advisers have started laying the groundwork for a campaign in Iowa. They characterize it as a coin-toss whether he enters the field in the coming weeks.

The coyote-shooting, tough-talking ex-Democrat has never lost an election.

As Republicans try to deter mine the strongest challenger to Obama, the party establishment and tea partyers don’t seem satisfied with their current options.

Perry’s message to them: never settle.

“Our party cannot be all things to all people. It can’t be. Our loudest opponents on the left are never going to like us so let’s stop trying to curry favor with them,” Perry said. “Let’s stand up and speak with pride about our morals and our values.”

The Republican presidential field remains murky.

U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, who

used Monday’s debate in New Hampshire to enter the race, raised the New Orleans crowd to its feet on Friday and spurred bloggers again on Saturday at the other end of the Mississippi where she cast herself as “a very different kind of leader.”

It’s a pitch similar to Her man Cain, a for mer pizza executive and tea party favorite who has never served in public office. U.S. Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, a favorite among the libertarian wing of the party, won the New Orleans straw poll after a rousing speech railing against Washington and the Federal Reserve.

All are trying to spark interest and capture the imagination of their party’s most active members. In speeches tailored for the party’s base, they hit similar messages about making Obama a one-term president, repealing his health care overhaul and lowering taxes.

Absent from the Southern event were the nominal front-runner, former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Rom-

ney; former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty; and former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman.

Pawlenty spoke in Des Moines, Iowa, on Saturday before speaking to online activists in Minneapolis.

Much of the talk this past week about Pawlenty concerned his self-described lackluster debate performance and his fumbled-thenrenewed attack on the health care overhaul that Romney put in place in his state.

Romney has assembled a strong organization and is expected to produce impressive fundraising results in the latest reporting period. But questions about his record and authenticity give some hesitation.

Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels and Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour both decided to skip the race.

Donald Trump flirted early and then left.

Sarah Palin, the former governor of Alaska and the GOP’s 2008 vice presidential pick, overshadowed former Romney’s presidential announcement in New Hampshire with an East

Coast bus tour that took her to his home base of Boston and then across the border into the state that hosts the first nominating primary.

She hasn’t said what she will do.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich’s campaign troubles have helped Perry.

Gingrich’s senior aides resigned en masse in disagreements with the candidate. Many of Gingrich’s top aides are alumni of Perry campaigns and could retur n to Texas should Perry decide to run.

Indications were that he was leaning that way.

Gingrich’s former political director was laying the groundwork for Perry in Iowa. Perry planned a national day of prayer in Houston, a move seen by GOP insiders as a play to evangelicals who are an important part of the GOP base, particularly in Iowa.

And he isn’t afraid of criticizing Obama.

“That mix of arrogance and audacity that guides the Obama administration is an affront to every freedom loving American,” Perry said.

Chou, veteran Lee split top Golden Melody Awards

AP Photo Taiwanese singer Jay Chou displays his awards for “Best Male Mandarin Singer” and “Best Album” for his new album The Era during the 22nd Golden Melody Awards in Taipei, Taiwan, Saturday.

TAIPEI, Taiwan (AP) — It’s been a milestone year for Jay Chou. The Asian pop sensation marked a decade in the music business with his 10th studio album, which became the latest in his recent string of best-sellers.

He also made his Hollywood debut by playing Kato in the hit action film comedy “The Green Hornet.”

The Taiwanese singer songwriter added to an already decorated year on Saturday by clinching the top awards at his home island’s 22nd Golden Melody Awards — Chinese pop’s answer to the Grammys — picking up the best Mandarin album and best Mandarin male singer trophies for his recent release “Cross-generation.”

Industry veteran Jonathan Lee also had a strong showing, sweeping song of the year, best composer and best lyricist for his single “Jonathan’s Song.” The soul-searching look at a man’s love life was a product of his “Super Band” collaboration with fellow Chinese pop standouts Emil Chau, Lo Da-yu and Chang Chen-yue, which yielded a yearlong tour and two albums.

The award for Best Mandarin female per for mer went to Hong Kong’s Karen Mok, who showcased her jazzy and laid-

back vocals on the CD “Precious.”

Chou, who has won 13 Golden Melody trophies over his career, was playful in his acceptance speech after clinching best Mandarin singer, joking about his superstitious belief that he tended to win when he didn’t attend the awards ceremony.

“The Golden Melody jury is different every year. I like the one this year,” he said. “I’ve always debated whether or not to attend the awards ceremony.

Usually when I skip it I win the big prizes. Thanks to the jury for changing my mind.”

Chou’s logic seemed to apply to Lee. The veteran singer songwriter missed the Saturday night ceremony at Taipei Arena because of work obligations.

He said of “Jonathan’s Song” in a statement published in the ceremony’s official booklet: “This isn’t just a song. This is the cry of the soul of everyone who is in love.”

Mok, who was also named best female singer in 2002, was emotional when her win was announced, raising her trophy aloft in celebration.

She wrote all the songs on the album, a collaboration with famed mainland Chinese producer Zhang Yadong, who oversaw several of Hong Kong diva

Faye Wong’s albums.

“I can’t believe I’ve won this award the second time. The more I win this prize, the more I want to win it again. I am addicted to it,” she said.

Taiwan’s Eric Hung was named best producer for the album “Flower of Love,” which drew inspiration from the classic songs of his father, legendary Taiwanese singer Hung Ifeng, who passed away last year.

A smaller version of the massive Japanese girl band AKB48 — which has 58 members — was guest per for mer. Dressed in identical blue scarves, ruffled white dresses and white boots, 16 members of the group waved their hands and swayed their bodies through two fast numbers and thanked the Taiwanese public for their donations to Japanese earthquake and tsunami relief.

Three AKB48 members also joined Calvin Chen and Jiro Wang of Taiwanese boy band Fahrenheit as presenters for the best lyricist and best pop group prizes.

Taiwanese pop diva AMei Chang anchored a tribute to late Chinese pop composers, singing a medley of their works with orchestra backing.

Organizers also presented seven awards to musicians performing in Tai-

wan’s aboriginal, Min and Hakka dialects, in a nod to the linguistic diversity of the country’s music industry. Taiwan’s President Ma Ying-jeou announced the best aboriginal album and congratulated the winners.

Aboriginal musicians also crossed over in the main categories, with aboriginal reggae group Matzka taking home the best rock group honors.

Best pop group went to Da Mouth, the TaiwaneseJapanese hip-hop group that has drawn comparisons to the Black Eyed Peas. Da Mouth also prevailed in the same category in 2008.

The winner of the lifetime achievement award was Huang Min, a veteran composer and producer of Mandarin and Min dialect pop. Huang was also honored with a medley perfor mance of his classic songs.

The Golden Melody Awards recognize outstanding achievement by singers, songwriters and producers mostly from Taiwan and Hong Kong.

Montgomery Gentry raises prostate cancer awareness

ATLANTA (AP) — Eddie Montgomery of the country duo Montgomery Gentry thought he was only getting a sore hip checked out when his doctor spotted a “shadow” on his X-ray. It turned out to be prostate cancer.

The singer was diagnosed in November, a time he describes as one of the most frightening of his life. But he was able to have the tumor surgically removed.

“When you hear the ‘C’ word, you don’t believe it,” said Montgomery, who is a father of three. “You don’t know how bad it is. I thought about my kids. It was tough to hear that I had gotten cancer. But we were able to find the cancer in its very early stage and had it removed. ... I’m glad I got tested early enough before it was too late.”

Now as a cancer survivor, the 47-year-old Montgomery and partner Troy Gentry want to bring awareness to the disease through a free concert. The concert is after the Atlanta Braves-Texas Rangers game on Sunday in support of Major League Baseball’s contest, “My Dad, My MVP.” Prostate cancer survivors who registered through the Braves’ website are able to attend the game for free. As part of Father’s Day, the platinum-selling group will take part in an on-field cere-

mony for the “My Dad, My MVP” winner.

“I’m a huge fan of these guys,” said Braves second baseman Dan Uggla, who said he’ll stick around to watch the concert. “Now that I know these guys, I’m proud to say that I’m friends with these guys. They’re very genuine. I hope the people at the concert will be able to grasp their message.”

Montgomery initially was not at the doctor’s office for himself. He visited a bone specialist to seek treatment for his son, who broke a few bones in his shoulder after he wrecked his off-road vehicle.

While his son was being examined, Montgomery told the doctor that he had some soreness in his hip. So the doctor offered to give him an X-ray, and Montgomery said the doctor saw a “shadow” in his results and urged him to immediately see his doctor.

Making matters worse, his wife, Tracy, filed for divorce almost three weeks after he was diagnosed with cancer.

The diagnosis came on his birthday.

“I hope nobody goes through what I went through,” Montgomery said.

“At the time, life kind of sucked. But knowing that I’m 100 percent cancer-free, life is just fine.”

With Montgomery now a

cancer survivor, he has preached to his family and friends about the importance of getting prostate exams.

He’s already encouraged the 44-year-old Gentry to get screened for the disease.

“You think sometimes it might not happen to you,” Gentry said. “But when it happens to somebody close to you, it definitely helped push the button for me to get in there and make an appointment. I’m not worried because I saw how strong Eddie was.”

The Friends of Bitter Lake Mission Statement

The refuge's creation and stewardship of quality wildlife habitat;

The refuge's environmental educational and scientific projects;

Projects and programs to increase the public's understanding and enjoyment of the refuge and

The mission of the National Wildlife Refuge system.

Motto

To Save What Could Be Lost STORY AND PHOTOS BY MARTHA D. URQUIDES-STAAB VISTAS EDITOR

Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge is nestled northeast of Roswell. The silent wilderness displays natural beauty in the rouged desert and is softened by the colorful plants and lake that rest below Comanche Hill. It is the epitome of the Land of Enchantment.

This terrain is home to many animals. Often described as an oasis in the Chihuahuan Desert, it was established in 1937 to provide a habitat for migratory birds and plays the role in conserving the wetlands. The area has many springs and sink holes that house many endangered species like the Pecos bluntnose shiner, assiminea snail, puzzle sunflower and many other species. The refuge has had a bountiful growth through the years and some of that is due to the Friends of Bitter Lake.

The Friends of Bitter Lake was established in 2000 and since then, they have achieved massive goals to make Bitter Lake a now nationally known refuge. They are a non-profit organization which increases public awareness, purchases trees and flowers, sponsors outreach activities and promotes the goals of the refuge and the uniqueness of the area.

“The Friends has accomplished so much in such a short time, they have established the Dragonfly Festival and also the new Visitors Center,” said Steve Alvarez, outdoor recreation planner.

The Dragonfly Festival was the brain child of, at the time, a handfull of people known as the Friends who wanted to get the community and youth involved in wildlife awareness. Many of the people who became Friends where originally volunteers and already actively involved in the refuge’s functions. Jim Montgomery was a volunteer-turned-friend and was one key to helping Bitter Lake land on the map. In the centennial year of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Montgomery out-shined many and won the volunteer of the year award. Montgomery is still part of Friends and serves as treasurer. Every year since the Dragonfly’s birth, the festival gets bigger and better as the years pass. Even though the festival isn’t for a couple more months, the planning is in full swing, and getting things in order is a daily task from here on out. The festival has gotten national recognition in many magazines and publications and has become a well-known event.

The second massive achievement the Friends helped make possible is the Visitors Center. They helped bridge the gap between Friends to politics to help gain funds to build their center. It was also made possible by the man the building is named after.

“U.S. Representative Joe Skeen enjoyed the refuge and what it had to offer, and the Friends approached him to seek help in allocating funds and build the center. They created Joe Skeen Day and that was where he would tour the area and enjoy the refuge’s surroundings,” said Alvarez.

The union was a very high profile match that helped with the growth the refuge is currently enjoying. Most refuges around the country don’t have visitor centers because there’s no room in the budgets to make them.

“What the Friends did, had never been done before. There are 500 other refuges and we were one of the few to get a big dollar project,” said Alvarez.

The Friends and the center help promote and educate the public about its unique wildlife. The refuge sits in an area where there is a high volume of rich biological wildlife which makes it a unique place to see something that can’t be seen anywhere else.

The refuge is a great place for recreational activities including the Butterfly Trail. This trail provides interpretive information about butterflies and landscaping to attract these beautiful insects. This is a perfect location to view native vegetation. The Oxbow Trail is four miles from the refuge headquarters office off the auto tour route. It formerly connected to the Pecos River; the deep water channel is an excellent location for bird viewing. The trail is approximately two miles long. The Desert Upland Trail is a one-mile trail that takes visitors through an area that hosts an assortment of native plant species. The shrubs and thicket areas provide excellent quail and songbird viewing.

There are photography, hiking, bicycling and guided tours available for visitors. When the fall comes around, some hunting on the refuge is permitted. Under the supervision of Bitter Lake staff, waterfowl, sandhill crane, quail, dove, pheasant and deer hunting is part of the refuge’s history.

The refuge is constantly in motion. While the public may not see it, the staff is working non-stop on a few projects. One that has been an ongoing project is salt cedar control. There are 21,000 acres of salt cedar along the Pecos River and in 2009 the refuge received funding from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 to clear the cedar from the most infested area of the refuge, the North Tract.

The future plans and projects for the Friends are still unknown but they continue to improve the Dragonfly Festival and continue to educate youths with their bookstore and other projects. Currently they are working on the next Festival, which will be held this September. There will be tours and presentations and many other exciting events added to the Festival that the Friends are confirming for the event. If the past 10 years have been monumental for the Friends, then the next 10 will be just as successful.

For anyone interested in becoming a Friend, membership costs are $5 for students, $10 for individuals, $15 for families and $50 for businesses. For more information call 625-4009.

Father’s Day, a time to remember what makes a good dad

Q: This will be my first Father’s Day (our daughter was bor n four months ago). Quite frankly, the entire concept scares me.

Who thought it would be a good idea to let ME be a dad? I don’t think I have what it takes.

Jim: If you’re not a little scared at the thought of being a parent, there’s probably something wrong.

It’s a tough assignment, but it’s also one of God’s greatest gifts!

Years ago, my friend, Dr. Ken Canfield, wrote a book called “The Seven Secrets of Effective Fathers.” Perhaps you’ll find these principles empowering as you start your journey.

First, effective fathers are committed to their children. Nothing else can fill a dad’s role -- not TV, not school and not even Mom. Fathers need to be there for their kids.

Second, effective fathers know their children. They ask them questions, spend

time on their tur f, and help them develop their own talents and interests.

Third, effective fathers are consistent in their attitudes and behavior. They keep their promises. Their lives are characterized by regularity and predictability.

Fourth, effective fathers protect and provide for their kids. This means not only putting a roof over their heads, but also knowing their emotional needs.

Fifth, effective fathers love their children’s mother. Dr. Canfield calls this “one of the best things you can do for your kids.”

Dads need to go on dates with their wives, and show them affection in front of the kids.

Sixth, effective fathers are active listeners. They pay attention when their kids talk to them, and block out distractions.

Finally, effective fathers spiritually equip their chil-

dren. They take them to church, and teach them to pray.

Some of these principles won’t apply until your daughter is older, but ingrain them in your mind now. Happy Father’s Day, and may God bless you in your role as a dad!

Q: My husband and I have been married for almost 15 years. We have two children together, and we have just grown apart.

We live under the same roof, but don’t seem to communicate. Recently I’ve started voicing my unhappiness, but my husband doesn’t seem to be too con-

cerned, and if anything, seems shocked that I’m unhappy. What do I do?

Juli: During the busyness of raising kids and managing life, it’s pretty normal for couples in your life stage to feel like the connection has gone out of your marriage. It is also common for you to be more sensitive to this lack of intimacy than your husband is. In general, women desire more emotional intimacy in marriage and are the first to notice when you begin to drift apart.

You didn’t mention any major conflicts that are contributing to “drifting apart.” This is good. How-

intimacy.

Finally, don’t give up.

Many couples go through stretches in which marriage is not fun or emotionally fulfilling. Investing through these rough spots will build an even deeper emotional connection for the future of your marriage.

Decluttering your home for healthier living

Herring

Dorothy and John Herring will be honored at a reception in celebration of their 70th Wedding Anniversary on Saturday, June 25, at 2-4 p.m. at First United Methodist Church in Fellowship Hall, Roswell.

They were married on July 5, 1941, in Fort Sumner. The family warmly extends an invitation to all those wishing to come by and offer congratulations on this joyous occasion.

JIM DALY

ever, if your marriage continues to drift, you’ll become more and more vulnerable to a crisis like infidelity. Now is the time to change things.

Since your husband doesn’t think there’s a problem, he may not be interested in marriage counseling. However, he might be willing to read a good book together on marriage or even attend a weekend marriage conference.

One of the simplest and most important things you can do is to start investing time in one another. Plan a date night at least twice a month. Take 15 to 20 minutes a day to check in with each other. Go out of your way to connect during the day with a quick text that says “I’m thinking about you” or a sweet note with lipstick on the mirror.

These might seem like very minor adjustments, but they can make a big difference in working toward

Turn chicken and brush with marinade occasionally while cooking. (Do not brush with any more marinade less than 10 minutes before chicken is done.) Cook until chicken is no longer pink in thickest part (cut to test), 15 to 30 minutes depending on size and piece. Yield: 6 servings (each serving about 6 ounces chicken.)

Healthy meals dad will enjoy this Father’s Day DR. MICHAEL FENSTER, MD, F.A.C.C., FSCA&I, PEMBA T ampa, Fla. — Dr. Michael Fenster believes that good health is the greatest gift anyone can give and receive. This Father’s Day forget the greasy burgers and the industrial mystery meat in tube form; go healthy with a great chicken barbecue.

As a practicing interventional cardiologist and chef, Dr. Fenster says “chicken does not have to mean boring. Chicken is a great source of low-fat protein and dressed up right, chicken can be an amazingly delicious treat.”

Dr. Fenster also suggests we make Father’s Day a day of health not only for dad but the entire family by adding some exercise to the day’s activities. “Moderate exercise has been shown to help suppress the appetite.

Walking is one of the best and easiest activities we can do. A short walk after a barbecue will help lower blood pressure and increase digestion. A relaxing walk is the perfect way to end the day.”

To make your Father’s Day barbecue complete, Dr. Fenster suggests adding fresh vegetables to the grill. “Take some red and green bell peppers, zucchini, some broccoli, and any other favorite vegetables, toss them in a small amount of olive oil and a few spices, then add them to the grill. You will be amazed at how delicious these grilled vegetables will taste and be so

good for you.”

WIPP called model for nuclear waste disposTHE ASSOCIATED PRESS A half-mile under the flat, scrubby desert in southeastern New Mexico, a warren of rectangular chambers is chiseled into a 250 million-year-old salt formation. For the last dozen years, forklifts have been filling these tombs with radioactive waste left over from the country’s efforts to build nuclear bombs.

Sometime this year, the 10,000th shipment will arrive at the Waste Isolation Pilot Program, or WIPP, sealed in steel casks the size of elephants on the back of a flatbed truck hailing from one of 10 government nuclear development sites around the country.

The U.S. has been trying for decades to site and build a place much like this to hold a different type of nuclear waste — spent nuclear fuel from the nation’s commercial nuclear reactors.

This effort has taken on a new urgency in the wake of the disaster at the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear station in Japan. Threequarters of the 72,000 tons of spent nuclear fuel scattered across 35 states is packed into spent fuel pools likes the ones thought to have overheated and released radioactive material into the air and water around the stricken Japanese reactors.

The older fuel remains in some of those pools in part because the government has failed to fulfill a promise made 30 years ago to build a permanent disposal facility. A planned repository at Yucca Mountain, Nev., has been abandoned.

By the end of July, a presidential commission appointed to recommend a new plan for spent nuclear fuel storage and disposal is to issue its draft report. And in the WIPP site, near Carlsbad, the commission may have found a template. An interim report it issued June 1 examines the history of efforts to build a nuclear waste repository in the U.S. and highlights WIPP as a “notable exception” to a long list of failures.

That there is no long-term plan for spent nuclear fuel in the U.S. is frustrating to utility executives, environmentalists and scientists because they say the United States has the geology, the space, and the technology to build a repository and it has been collecting money from electricity customers for nearly three decades to do so.

“I don’t want to say it’s a piece of cake, but it’s a piece of cake,” says Jim Conca, a geologist who helped design WIPP and the abandoned Yucca Mountain repository and who is now directing a nuclear waste program at the Department of Energy’s Hanford site in Washington State.

“You just have to let us do what we know how to do.”

A worker cuts through a salt formation at the Waste Isolation Pilot Project.

The problem, experts say, is political, not technical.

“The entire waste program has been pin the tail on the donkey,” said Charles Forsberg, executive director of a 2010 study by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology that examined ways to handle nuclear fuel. “It doesn’t matter, Republican or Democrat, the answer is, ‘Somewhere else.”’

WIPP has become the only long-term nuclear waste disposal site in the country in part because local officials in Carlsbad lobbied to have a repository built nearby to boost the local economy.

A 1957 report by the National Academy of Sciences recommended getting rid of waste in salt beds and domes as the “most practical immediate solution of the problem.” Salt remains an ideal substance for protecting nuclear waste, experts say.

Water does not filter through salt, so it can’t pick up radioactive material and spread it. The vast layers of salt underneath much of the U.S. Southwest are not prone to earthquakes. The for mation near Carlsbad has been geologically stable for 250 million years.

Also, salt doesn’t crack like granite. Instead, pressure makes it act like a plastic that heals its own fractures and fills voids. In New Mexico, the salt will close around the waste now being deposited at a rate of about three inches per year until it is sealed off.

“It’s a big trash compactor,” says Conca.

A first attempt at a salt repository in Lyons, Kan., failed in the early 1970s because of local opposition and problems including undocumented mining in the area and the site’s proximity to another salt mine. But just as the Lyons project was failing, falling salt prices were hurting the economy around Carlsbad, which was dependent on salt mining. Carls-

bad’s mayor invited officials to consider placing the project there.

Despite local support, opposition elsewhere in the state delayed WIPP’s opening 20 years.

To eventually get it approved, policymakers promised New Mexico that the site would only store mid-level nuclear waste — for example, tools, clothing or sludge contaminated with plutonium as the result of nuclear bomb-making. Lawmakers banned the site from accepting the high-level nuclear waste generated by commercial nuclear reactors, which is more radioactive, hotter and more difficult to handle.

WIPP started receiving waste in 1999. Miners have cut 56 huge rooms into the salt, arranged like a series of ladders laid on their sides. Each room has about 12,000 square feet of floor space and 13-foot-high ceilings. The rooms are separated by 30,000square-foot pillars of salt. Each room is designed to hold the equivalent of 10,000 55-gallon drums of waste.

Most of the debris has been contaminated with plutonium and other radioactive elements, but it is not so radioactive that it is generating heat. About 5 percent of the waste to be disposed of at WIPP is hot enough that it must be handled with machines.

At its most potent, it is in the lower range of the more radioactive waste like spent fuel from nuclear reactors.

“What the WIPP process affirmatively demonstrates is that with adequate patience, flexibility, and political and public support, success is possible,” wrote the president’s nuclear waste commission in its recent draft report.

Technical experts say that the salt formation under WIPP would be ideal for long-term disposal of spent fuel, though some worry that nearby oil and gas drilling deep below the salt beds could

raise concerns. The government has 16 square miles of land in the salt flats available. When WIPP is full it will occupy onehalf of one square mile.

Policymakers were led away from salt, and ultimately toward Yucca Mountain, for political and security reasons.

Spent nuclear fuel still contains huge amounts of untapped energy, but to process it into a useful form requires isolating plutonium, which is used to make nuclear weapons. The Ford and Carter administrations banned reprocessing out of concern that the plutonium could be stolen and used to make bombs.

Some then argued that the nuclear waste should be retrievable in case the nation decided someday to use the spent fuel as an energy source. One powerful proponent was former energy secretary James Schlesinger, who declined to be interviewed for this story.

The need for a site that could serve both as a dump that could be sealed off for thousands of years and an accessible storage locker made designing a facility far more difficult, and it led eventually to the troubled Yucca Mountain project. Yucca was

nation’s inventory than Yucca was designed to hold.

Yucca Mountain still has advocates, and the Obama administration’s abandonment of it is being challenged in court.

Experts say salt is not the only option for a disposal site, and that with the right safeguards granite, shale or clay formations — even Yucca Mountain — could be selected. “If it’s properly cited and designed there’s no reason to think any of them wouldn’t work,” says Mark Nutt, who is working on a nuclear waste program at Argonne National Laboratory.

Regardless of what is ultimately chosen, scientists, environmentalists and utility executives are urging that something be decided soon. In a March summary of testimony it had heard, the president’s commission wrote: “Several witnesses have stated that getting a disposal program back on track should be the highest priority of the commission.”

And in the June interim report, the commissioners wrote: “The need for a disposal solution is, in our view, inescapable.” The commissioners recommended underground storage as the “most promising and technically accept-

Texas Rep. Jim Wright was the Speaker of the House. Washington Rep. Thomas Foley was House majority leader. The legislation that led to Yucca was known as the “Screw Nevada” bill.

Yucca is near a seismically active zone, and it was designed to sit above the water table, which allows oxygen to circulate and corrode equipment. The fear is that over thousands of years, water could leak into the waste, pick up plutonium and other radioactive waste, and carry it into aquifers. Also, there is already more spent fuel in the

ed option available.”

Political and local opposition remains, as ever, daunting. During planning and design, WIPP was challenged in court by thenstate Attor neys General Jef f Bingaman in 1981 and Tom Udall in 1991. Those two now represent New Mexico in the U.S. Senate.

Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada, who helped kill the Yucca Mountain project, said in an interview he believes utilities should more aggressively move spent fuel into steel-andconcrete casks at the sites of power plants and wait for better technology to develop in the next decades. A long-term repository isn’t needed, Reid said. “They’re just so foolish in continually pushing that.”

Glenwood Springs honeybee enthusiasts rescue swarm

Wacek Topor checks on a swarm of honeybees in an apple tree at the Cedar Lodge Motel in Glenwood Springs, Colo., on June 4.

GLENWOOD SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — Two longtime friends Wacek Topor and Joe Koziol teamed up recently to rescue a swarm of honeybees that had gathered in an apple tree outside the Cedar Lodge Motel.

The nearly 20-year mainstays of the Roaring Fork Valley grew up near the Tatry Mountains in southern Poland and tended honeybees as a hobby.

“Many people don’t have a clue about how important bees are to us,” Koziol said, standing outside the

Cedar Lodge Motel on a Saturday.

When Koziol, 55, a maintenance worker at the Cedar Lodge, saw the swarm, he knew just who to call to remove the bees and transport them without harm.

Topor, 55, who is a maintenance worker at the Rodeway Inn, came right over to the Cedar Lodge with the equipment and know-how to safely capture the swarm.

“The bees try to protect us, they feed people, and still we try to kill them,”

Topor said as he was preparing the equipment.

“I’ll do my best to save them.”

Using a ladder, he placed an eight-frame hive box under neath the swar m, with a bucket below the box to prop it up. The idea is to coax the bees into the hive box so they can be safely contained and moved to another location.

Topor used gentle movements to urge the swarm of bees downward into the box. His preferred tools are a feather or a glove. He noted that handlers must be gentle with honeybees, as the slightest injury can kill them.

After capturing the swarm in the box, Topor said bees can have a tough time in Glenwood Springs between the cold winters and predators, such as skunks and bears.

“Glenwood is a tough place to keep bees,” he said. “The cold kills them, and I’ve even had two bears wreck my hives. It looked like a tornado went through them.”

Topor added that the best place for the bees is in an orchard with good souther n exposure, as they “like lots of sun and peace and quiet.”

Friends for nearly half a century, Topor and Koziol remember tending to the land — and bees — back in their native Poland, and

They oppose using toxic sprays to eradicate honeybee swarms that form and move in the late spring and early summer.

Honeybees swarm in an apple tree at the Cedar Lodge. Bees are looking for a new home when they swarm, and are not inclined to be aggressive or sting people while swarming. they have maintained their childhood admiration for honeybees throughout the years.

“They’re amazing. When a new queen comes into the hive, some will split with her and look for a new home. In the way they flap their wings and move, they tell the others where and how far the new hive will be,” Topor said.

Honeybee colonies have been on the decline now for many years, falling in number by 30 percent over the 2010-2011 winter, according to a recently released annual survey conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the Apiary Inspectors of America.

The loss was lower than for the previous winter,

2006.

Koziol believes the cause for bee population decline is pollution and toxins.

“Look where we’ve gone, 100 years ago we were on horseback, now we have iPods,” Topor added. “The bees have had the same technology for thousands of years.

“What’s important to me is just don’t kill them.”

DEAR ABBY: Because my 90-year -old mother is homebound, she qualifies for a meal program through a senior charity service. The program is free of charge for those in need. She didn’t like some of the meals, so she asked me to give them to my father-in-law, “Louis.”

Louis is 88. He still drives and is well-off, so he doesn’t qualify for the program, but he accepted the meals that were offered. My mother has now decided she can no longer eat any of these meals, so I told her we should discontinue the program.

When I mentioned it to my wife, she became very upset with me, saying her father appreciated those meals. I reminded her that her father is able to drive himself to the supermarket and buy frozen dinners similar to what is being provided through the service.

My wife is so angry she now says she will never again share any leftovers with my mother.

It’s an understatement to say this situation has created a major fight between us.

Is my wife correct in being upset about my discontinuing the meal service?

CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE DEAR CHARITY: It wasn’t wrong to offer the meals that had already been delivered to your mother to your father -in-law after she rejected them. They probably could not have been redistributed to other seniors by the food program at that point.

But to continue your mother’s food service while redirecting them to someone who is not in need is dishonest. It’s stealing necessary resources from people who truly need them.

Because your wife is upset, she should contact the agency that provides the meals, or another agency that serves seniors, and see if her father qualifies. But she shouldn’t punish you for refusing to go along with a deception.

If a guest has allergies, it is not unreasonable to ask that the person make his or her own accommodations, because I don’t have a use for a half-gallon of soy milk or a 3/4 loaf of gluten-free bread after my guest leaves. — Carly in Springfield, Ohio

FROM HELOISE

DEAR ABBY: Twice, while attending social funtions, my wife and I met couples for the first time. On each of these occasions as we were saying goodbye, the husbands said to me, “Your wife is gorgeous.” They said it in front of their wives, which surprised me. The first time it happened, I didn’t know what to say. The second time, I replied, “So is yours,” even though the women weren’t all that attractive.

I’m wondering if their comments were appropriate, especially because they were made in the presence of their wives. I wasn’t offended, just caught off-guard and felt uncomfortable for their wives. I’d appreciate your comments.

MARRIED TO A KNOCKOUT DEAR MARRIED TO A KNOCKOUT: Not only do you have a gorgeous wife, but your wife is blessed with a sensitive husband. The comments those individuals made strike me as insensitive to the feelings of their wives because it invited a comparison which could have made the women feel uncomfortable. I think you handled both situations gallantly.

NY Target store workers reject unionization push

NEW YORK (AP) — Workers at a Target store in New York voted against joining the country’s largest retail union Friday night, but the union said it would press on and broaden its push to represent the company’s workers nationwide.

The United Food and Commercial Workers Union Local 1500 also said it would contest the results and ask the federal government to order a new election, alleging that Target illegally intimidated work-

ers. Target denied the union’s allegations.

Both sides said the workers at Target’s Valley Stream store voted 137-85 against unionization. A “yes” vote would have made the store the first of the company’s 1,700 locations to bring in organized labor.

“Target did everything they could to deny these workers a chance at the American Dream,” said Bruce W. Both, president of United and Commercial Workers Union Local 1500,

in a statement. “However, the workers’ pursuit of a better life and the ability to house and feed their families is proving more powerful. These workers are not backing down from this fight. They are demanding another election.”

Target spokeswoman Molly Snyder said the company acted legally.

“Target absolutely believes we have followed all the policies and procedures that are outlined by the National Labor Rela-

tions Board in a completely lawful manner,” Snyder said.

In response to the vote, the union planned to begin a campaign called “Target: Democracy” at the company’s other 26 stores in the New York area and will begin coordinating a nationwide campaign with other union locals in major U.S. cities. Since two-dozen workers from the Valley Stream store approached the union with their grievances regarding hours and

pay in February, Target employees from around the country have been reaching out to the labor organization, according to Patrick Purcell, spokesman for the UFCW. The union consists of mostly grocery workers, but also represents employees at retailers that include clothier H&M. The vote comes at a time when union membership in the retail industry has waned. In 1983, 1.2 million retail workers were union members. Today, that

number is 703,000, with more than half of those workers in grocery stores, according to the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union.

At the same time, the quality of retail jobs has fallen. The median hourly wage for retail salespeople has dropped 3 percent since 2006 after adjusting for inflation. And shrinking hours for many workers make it hard to earn a living wage or qualify for benefits.

NATION Colonial Bank exec sentenced to 8 years

ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) — A former bank executive was sentenced Friday to eight years in prison for her role in a $3 billion fraud scheme that helped topple her bank as well as one of the nation’s largest private mortgage companies.

Federal prosecutors had sought a term of 11 years for Catherine Kissick, 50, of Orlando, Fla. Kissick had been a senior vice president at Alabama-based Colonial Bank.

Prosecutors said that Kissick, more than anybody, could have put a halt at the earliest stages to a staggering fraud scheme master minded by Lee Farkas, the owner of Florida-based mortgage company Taylor Bean & Whitaker.

18 charged in indie film investment scam

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Eighteen people from Southern California and Florida are facing federal charges in an alleged telemarketing scam that solicited more than $25 million for independent films.

According to two indictments filed Wednesday in Los Angeles federal court, the defendants lied to investors nationwide and falsely promised 1,000 percent returns.

One indictment says Cinamour Entertainment LLC took about $15 million from about 450 victims to promote “From Mexico with Love,” which cost $5 million to make and earned only half a million at the box office.

The other indictment alleges telemarketers for Q Media Assets LLC fraudulently raised about $9 million for a film called “Eye of the Dolphin” and a sequel.

The film made about $70,000 and the sequel went straight to video.

WORLD Election fears fuel capital flight in Russia

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia (AP) — Russia’s finance minister has acknowledged that the country’s growing capital flight is fueled by investors’ anxiety nine months before the presidential election.

Capital outflows from Russia reached $30 billion in the first four months of the year, even though the price for oil, the backbone of Russia’s economy, is well above $90 per barrel.

Alexei Kudrin told reporters on Saturday that investors are pulling out and withdrawing money on the back of anxiety about the presidential election in March.

GREEK DEBT CRISIS Head of Eurozone Juncker warns of contagion

BERLIN (AP) — Contagion from the Greek debt crisis could spread to at least five other European countries — including Belgium or even Italy — if it is not cautiously managed, the head of the eurozone group warned Saturday.

Jean-Claude Juncker told the Ger man daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung that demanding that private creditors contribute to the next Greek bailout package could be considered a “default” by ratings agencies — and that would have extreme consequences for Europe as a whole.

Juncker, the prime minister of Luxembourg who also chairs the 17 eurozone finance ministers, was quoted as saying that a Greek bankruptcy “could prove contagious for Portugal and Ireland, and then also for Belgium and Italy because of their high debt burden, even before Spain.”

“We are playing with the fire,” he told the paper.

His comments came a day after Moody’s war ned it may reduce Italy’s Aa2 credit rating over concerns about the country’s ability to increase growth and reduce its public debt, one of the highest in Europe. The warning followed a similar move by Standard and Poor’s, which cut its ratings outlook for Italy’s debt from stable to negative.

On Friday, German Chancellor Angela Merkel softened her government’s insistence on having private creditors share part of the Greek burden following a meeting with

French President Nicolas Sarkozy in Berlin, with both leaders agreeing that the participation should be “voluntary.”

Ratings agencies as well as the European Central Bank have warned that forcing bond holders to accept losses or give Greece extra years to repay its debt would likely be considered a partial default by Greece that could spread panic on financial markets.

Juncker stressed that a debt restructuring would ravage Greek banks, which hold a large amount of their country’s debt — some $114 billion — ultimately requiring yet another bailout for the banks.

“Everything is becoming yet more expensive because we are including private creditors due to domestic political considerations in Germany,” Sueddeutsche Zeitung quoted him as saying.

Merkel’s parliamentary majority recently agreed to the latest round of financial assistance for Greece while insisting that private creditors share any potential losses. Merkel, the leader of Europe’s biggest economy, restated that position Saturday.

“We again have to show solidarity and also have to include private creditors,” Merkel told fellow members of her conservative party in Berlin.

European officials will hold talks with the private sector — mostly banks, insurance companies and pension funds — and they will make a “substantial contribution” to a second bailout for Greece, Merkel

said, according to the news agency DAPD. But neither Merkel nor German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble have given an estimate of the private sector contribution they hope to achieve. Schaeuble told the German daily Boersen Zeitung the contribution must be “substantial, measurable and reliable” so that the burden of a new Greek aid package does not fall solely on taxpayers.

Juncker stressed that cutting spending and raising taxes alone was unable to revive Greece’s economy, and called for a loosening of EU rules to give Greece more direct financial assistance for investments that would spur growth.

“Europe should also develop an economic and political plan that restores hope for the Greeks,” he told Belgium’s daily Libre Belgique.

Heavily indebted Greece received a $157 billion bailout last year, but the country is expected to need a second bailout as its borrowing costs remain prohibitively high, making a return to the bond markets impossible. European finance ministers are meeting Sunday and Monday in Luxembourg to discuss the crisis, and it will certainly be a key item at an EU leaders summit later in the week.

Over 5,000 union members marched through Athens on Saturday to protest the Greek government’s latest austerity measures and plans to sell off state enterprises to appease creditors. Anti-austerity marches in Athens on Wednesday ended in clashes with police.

JRW Professional Gravesite and Monument Cleaning opened for business in Roswell on Wednesday.

The headstone cleaning service offers all-natural bio-washes to make the resting places of loved ones sparkle like new. The deep bio-washes extract fungi, lichens and algae hidden inside headstones, and restore sun-faded surfaces of headstone markers to near mint condition.

“I clean it all naturally,” sole proprietor Justin Wrinkle, of Roswell, said. “Some people just use a wire brush to scrub the surface, but I use the right chemical mixture for the right stone — marble or granite — for an all-natural bio-wash.”

Wrinkle says he has years of experience cleaning gravesites. It started out as a hobby when he was about 15 years old, searching for old cemeteries across the U.S. with his father whenever they were on vacation.

“Some dads and sons would go duck hunting and stuff like that,” he said. “We would go cemetery hunting.”

He’s had several careers in his time, as a private investigator at JR Investigations in Albuquerque for five years and most recently as a customer service representative for healthcare provider Quest Diagnostics. He was laid of f from Quest earlier this year and decided to make his boyhood skill and expertise of gravesites his next career.

“I knew that I had a skill that wasn't being offered here,” he said. “So I decided to create this service in Roswell. It makes people really happy when they see their loved ones’ final resting place look better, nicer and cleaner.”

JRW Professionals is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Saturday. To contact Wrinkle or for a free estimate, call 840-7977.

Medicaid cuts leave state hospitals high and dry, $200 million in lost revenue

BY MIKE BUSH THE TRITON GROUP

Steep cuts in government payments for Medicaid and other healthcare programs threaten the survival of hospitals across the state and throughout the United States.

The situation for New Mexico hospitals is so bad that Jeff Dye, CEO of the New Mexico Hospital Association, charged that the state’s $3.7 billion Medicaid budget is being balanced on the backs of New Mexico hospitals.

Dye told the New Mexico Business Weekly that cuts in the state Medicaid program enacted in late

LOCAL

BUSINESS

2010 will cost the state’s 40-plus hospitals $200 million a year in lost revenue.

“With another $200 million in uncompensated care that hospitals provide annually, and $765 million in decreased Medicare payments over the next 10 years, the state’s hospitals are hurting,” Dye added.

Rod Schumacher, CEO of

Roswell Regional Hospital, said the cuts have created a financial crisis for hospitals that is like none they have ever faced before, and it could mean some hospitals will not have enough money to meet their payrolls and pay their bills.

In 2008, The Associated Press and MSNBC predicted that hospital closings and mergers “are on the way,” noting that numbers of patient visits to doctors and hospitals were “flat,” and patients were delaying care due to the ongoing recession. They forecast cuts in funding for Medicaid and Medicare — a prediction that is beginning to come true, according

to Schumacher.

Medicaid patients now make up more than 25 percent of the total number of patients seen at Roswell Regional for the first time in the hospital’s history, Schumacher says. He predicts that state cuts in Medicaid reimbursements will result in a reduction of more than $2 million in Medicaid reimbursements for calendar year 2011 despite an expected increase in the number of patients.

Most of the babies delivered in Chaves County are delivered at Roswell Regional — 80 or more a month — and 60-70 percent of those are born to mothers covered by Medicaid. For each Medi-

caid-covered delivery, the hospital loses $865, amounting to losses of more than $54,000 a month.

In 2010, there were 10,366 emergency-room visits to Roswell Regional, 36 percent of which were Medicaid patients.

“We have tried to explain this to government officials at all levels, including Chaves County, the state of New Mexico and the United States Congress, but there seems to be no relief in sight,” Schumacher said.

He said the hospital is taking multiple actions to cut costs.

“We’re looking at everything,” he said, “and we are not alone.”

Creation or evolution?

Dear Editor: The May 29 Record had a letter insisting that the second law of thermodynamics does not prevent macroevolution. The writer made some fundamental mistakes, most notably confusing energy with order.

The sun gives us sufficient energy to turn a pile of lumber and nails into a house, but it lacks any organizing force, such as a genetic code. However you want to define a closed system, there is simply no way to reverse entropy in nature.

Three dedicated evolutionists grappled with this problem in an article in Physics Today. The best they could offer was, “Thus in principle at least, if we supply a system with a sufficient amount of negative entropy flow, we can maintain the system in an ordered state.” (I. Prigogine, G. Nicolis, A. Babloyantz, Physics Today, “Thermodynamics of Evolution” November, 1972 p. 24) Notice the phrase “negative entropy.” That would mean putting information into the system. Where could we find a source of information? Did someone suddenly invent DNA? Did God intervene?

We must consider some evidence for a young world. 1) Soft tissue and blood were found in a tyrannosaur’s bone. It could not remain for millions of years. It had to be a few thousand years old or younger. 2) Carbon14 decays with a 5,700 year half life. In about 250,000 years, all trace of it should be gone. No source of carbon below the Ice Age can be found that lacks the substance. Strata thought to be many millions of years old have carbon 14. 3) Helium is a product of decaying uranium and thorium. Helium produced in deep, hot Precambrian granite has not had time to escape, even though the rock is thought to be 1.5 billion years old. Recent measurements suggest that the helium has been leaking less than 10,000 years. (John R. Baumgardner, Ph.D, and D. Russell Humphreys, Ph. D. in Radioisotopes and the Age of the Earth, Vol. II, 2005.)

A good exercise is to find how often we could expect one billion monkeys, typing 10 random characters per second, to produce the phrase, “The theory of evolution.” I divided that number of years by 5 billion, the biggest estimate I have seen for the age of the Earth. I called 5 billion years, “One Earth Age Unit.”

We could expect that phrase to appear once in 5.9 million Earth Age Units, or 2.98 X 1016 years. I will be happy to share that exercise with anyone who wants to contact me. I am in the phone book.

We must say again, “The question of what happened ‘millions of years ago’ is not in the realm of natural science. We cannot test it with repeatable experiments, nor can we observe it.

Whether we argue for creation or evolution, both come from someone’s religious philosophy. Darwin developed his theory to support his Atheism.”

Many evolutionists are stubbornly insisting that order can come from disorder. It seems their problem is not so much with physics per se, but that it challenges their belief system. We must ask these people to tell us of one occasion when order has come from disorder with no ordering mechanism.

Thank you, Russell A. Scott Roswell

We the people

Dear Editor: There are many very good elected officials, but sad to say, there are so many “professional politicians” who have overstayed their welcome and effectiveness, that all suffer because of the few.

Roswell Daily Record

Citizen Congress? That was the original plan when the United States of America became an independent nation.

No, we now have professional politicians. Retirement, medical, salary, per diem, Franken privileges, travel, seek election for new office while receiving full salary as an elected official.

(How many people get to apply for a job, conduct interviews, mail campaign, etc., and have the current employer pay full salaries?) Campaigns for the 2012 election have already started and we are paying several elected congressional persons full salaries to campaign “on company time.”

We even had one official make the statement, we will have to educate the voters because they don’t understand the problems of government. On another auspicious (suspicious) occasion an elected official made the ever inspiring comment, “We will know what’s in the bill after we pass it.”

We continue to reelect the same crew to office, when they have produced a deficit budget (increase the deficit while they receive a salary increase, or at least the same salary), long-term debt increase, education results down, and increased crime.

They can’t take the time from campaigning to take action on those problems.

How can we complain when we put them in office and leave them in office. “The fault, dear Brutus is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we be underlings.” The fault dear citizens is not in our Constitution (government), but in our collective wisdom that we continue to reelect the same “good old club” that no longer works for us but dictates to us. They admit they don’t read the new bills, they admit they “didn’t understand the tax laws,” however, they have to “educate the citizens” so the citizens will understand “we are acting in their (the citizen’s) best interest.” They (the Congress) will have time to read the bill after it has passed and then they (Congress and the citizens) will understand what’s in the bill. Yes, the bard was right when he wrote “It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”

Yes, our apathy and blind acceptance has created an elected elite and we are reaping (weeping) what we have sown. At one time the government was to provide protection for the citizens and worked for the citizens. My, how times have changed! One would think the tables have been turned and the citizenry work for the government and the elected protect the government. The Bill of Rights has been interpreted and reinterpreted until it makes the head spin to see and hear some of the new interpretations. Check freedom of religion, right to bear arms and freedom of speech for starters.

It seems we will continue to sleep while America burns. We have lost the will to stand up and be counted. We will let “them” do it. We will complain, but do nothing. Let the other people settle the problem, we don’t have time, know who to contact, have the right connection, and any other possible excuse to avoid taking responsibility, Remember Little Red Hen? Our children and grandchildren will not have the opportunity to see, or know, America the Beautiful, or The Land of the Free if we continue on the present course.

Remember the movie “Mr. Smith Goest to Washington” or the movie “Network.” Read the Constitution, read the “Federalist Papers.”

It is past time to have term limitation as promised in the Contract With America. How many of the professional politicians kept any of the promises that were made and signed?

Study the issues and how they affect you! Study the political candidates and how they stand on the issues.

Vote — and vote carefully, thoughtfully and wisely.

“We the people ...” determine whether we have a citizen Congress — or one dictated to by professional politicians who have lost sight of the average citizen problems.

“We the people ...” determine whether we have a citizen Legislature or professional politicians who talk the talk — know the

The real reason for wars

Dear Editor: In these ongoing debates about cutting spending why isn’t exiting from our very expensive decade’s long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan given consideration? Sometimes an exit period is talked about, but they always pass with the excuse that “conditions aren’t right on the ground.” Right for who? I still don’t know why we are there ... well, I do, but it’s not the reasons our hawkish politicians give us.

I was 8 years old when Pearl Harbor was bombed by the Japanese. Ten years later I was serving as a young Marine in Korea. It seems our country has been at war (even if not called a war) ever since; fighting one country or another, with only brief intervals when our forces weren’t engaged in one part of the world or another.

I feel that as a veteran with 26 years of military service, having served in Korea and Vietnam, and having been called up for Desert Storm, even though I didn’t go over there, I have the bonafides to speak in this issue.

I said in the beginning of this letter I do know why we are there. I will let General Smedley Butler, major general, United States Marine Corps, and two-time Medal of Honor winner, speak for me. General Butler served as a United States Marine from 1898 to 1931. He wrote a book in 1935 titled “War is a Racket.” In 1933, the year in which I was born, he said the following: “I spent thirty-three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country’s most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high-class muscle-man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.”

I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.

I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long.

I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.

During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.

Nothing has changed.

Ga. museum dishes the history of Vidalia onions

VIDALIA, Ga. (AP) — They’ve started fistfights and court battles, been romanticized in country songs and counterfeited by bootleggers. Their trademark sweetness has made them a coveted ingredient in recipes from salads and relishes to cookies and muffins.

If a museum dedicated to onions sounds rooted in folly, the history behind the famous Vidalia onion can likely hold its own with other veggie shrines such as the Idaho Potato Museum, the Red River Valley Sugarbeet Museum in Minnesota and the tiny Carrot Museum tucked in a Rhode Island bed-and-breakfast.

The freshly opened Vidalia Onion Museum digs fairly deep to dish the good, the bad and the yummy on Georgia’s official state vegetable — including the unearthed origin of Vidalias’ reputation for being so sweet they can be eaten like apples.

“You go anywhere in the country and you get these crazy, random museums.

So naturally people expected we had an onion museum,” said Wendy Brannen, who oversaw creation of the museum in her job as executive director of the Vidalia Onion Committee, which handles marketing of the crop.

It took five years and $250,000. But the onion museum, which shares space with Brannen’s committee offices and the local tourism bureau, opened its doors April 29 to coincide with the celebration of the spring harvest.

The museum has exhibits on the science behind why onions grown in rural southern Georgia turn out so mild (low-sulfur soil, for starters). There’s a foodie section with recipes for Vidalia onion muffins and congealed salad with chopped onions, lemon gel-

atin and cottage cheese.

One corner is dedicated to TV clips and other popculture curios. There’s Sammy Kershaw’s country song about a girl with a funky name: “Sweet Vidalia/ You always gotta make me cry.” And who’d have thought knowing that Vidalias come from Georgia was an answer worth $25,000 on “Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?”

For the uninitiated, the museum handily breaks down the basics: Only 20 counties in Georgia can grow and sell onions under the Vidalia name, by order of state and federal law.

Each year onion farmers ship about 200 million pounds of Vidalias, valued at $150 million.

Still, the museum’s juicy centerpiece is a collection of photos, newspaper clippings and videotaped interviews that tell the story of how Georgia’s prized cash crop grew from a few Depression-era far mers who randomly started growing onions to supplement their cotton and tobacco harvests.

One of those early stories features a firsthand account from farmer Mose Coleman, who grew his first onions from mail-ordered seeds in the 1930s and sold them out of a trailer made from the back of a Model T Ford. Coleman tells of how he sold his crop to a grocery chain’s buyer by biting into a raw, ripe onion and eating it like a piece of fruit.

“I pulled out my onion and I ate it there in front of him,” Coleman recalled in a speech years ago in Vidalia.

“He’d never seen anything like it. There wasn’t any tears coming out of my eyes, and I wasn’t making no face.”

The Vidalia onion’s reputation rippled outward over the decades. A state farmer’s market established

AP Photo The Vidalia Onion Museum chronicles the rise of Georgia’s state vegetable from its introduction in Piggly Wiggly stores to how the onion’s sweet success prompted fist fights and lawsuits between competing farmers. The museum has attracted more than 250 visitors since it opened in April. It took five years of planning and cost $250,000. here in 1949 sold onions to consumers traveling in from Macon, Savannah and Augusta. In the 1960s, Vidalia-headquartered Piggly Wiggly supermarkets began buying the onions by the truckload and selling them across the South.

It took a while for farmers to settle on the Vidalia name. Grower Pinky McRae insisted on calling his onions “Toombs County Sweets.” Others stood by “Glennville Sweets,” named for a neighboring farming town. Disputes over what to call the onions grew so heated they sometimes erupted into fistfights.

By the 1980s, Vidalia far mers put aside their infighting to face a common foe: bootleggers who were shipping onions from Texas

into Georgia and bagging them with Vidalia labels to fetch premium prices.

Newspaper clippings chronicle tales of onion intrigue. One farmer hired a private investigator to go undercover and spy on a suspicious competitor.

Another grower was reported to have borrowed a gadget from Coca-Cola and so he could sneak into a neighbor’s fields and test the sugar content of his onions.

By 1985, one far mer accused of selling bogus Vidalias got hauled into court, but growers couldn’t make fraud charges stick.

Nothing in state law defined what made an onion a Vidalia.

Farmers began lobbying state lawmakers and Con-

gress. In 1986, the 20county Vidalia onion growing area was defined in Georgia law. It won federal protection in 1989.

The onion battles made headlines across America, and the crop’s legend grew.

Vidalia Mayor Ronnie Dixon says he realized his city’s namesake onions had become downright famous soon after he took office in 1994.

“People stated calling city hall and asking how they could get onions mailed to them,” Dixon said.

Even though the town’s a bit of f the beaten path, about 15 miles south of Interstate 16 between Macon and Savannah, plenty of pilgrims have been finding their way to the museum. There, onions

But before booking, travelers should heed this additional advice: •Book on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. That’s when airlines most often offer sales.

•Buy in advance, but not too early. The best time is four to six weeks before traveling. In general, prices for any given flight are highest eight to 10 weeks and two to three weeks in advance.

•Embrace social media. Airlines are giving more benefits, like exclusive sales, to travelers who interact with them on Twitter and Facebook. Those specials are often gone within hours.

•The so-called discount airlines — JetBlue, AirTran, Southwest and Frontier — adjust their fares less frequently than other airlines, so you can feel more confident locking in a price.
