Pearce to hold prairie chicken town hall today cans an explanation for why their extraordinary cooperative efforts to preserve lesser prairie chicken habitat were not good enough.”

The FWS listed the lesser prairie chicken as a threatened species in March. Several industry leaders and officials in southeastern New Mexico hoped the agency would not list the bird, after months of negotiating and spending millions on conservation agreements.

Officials in the five-state prairie chicken range fear the listing could further impact agriculture, oil and gas and other activities.

Congressman Steve Pearce has invited anyone affected by the recent listing by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife of the lesser prairie chicken to join him at 1 p.m. today for a town hall meeting at the Roswell Chamber of Commerce.

“You have a right to ask government officials why they made the decisions they made,” Pearce said.

“Their choices affect your right to farm your land, graze your cattle, or continue the energy boom that’s created so many good-paying jobs throughout southeastern New Mexico.

have in the future, he said.

The nearly 90-minute discussion included questions about what rights the residents would have going forward if they did not sign conservation agreements with the government, Pearce said.

“We had a big turnout in Lovington,” Pearce said. “It was very productive. Everybody has a waitand-see attitude. There is deep concern about the listing’s affect on the ability to ranch or have oil and gas wells.”

Pearce, R-Dist.2, announced Monday he would host three town halls for local citizens this week to provide a venue for them to meet face-to-face with him and federal officials. Representatives of the

U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, U.S. Dept. of Agriculture and the Bureau of Land Management were invited to attend.

“I’m just trying to get the information out and have people get their questions answered,” Pearce said. “I’m there just to see that we get that. It’s an important discussion for the community. There is a lot of nervousness. People have the right to ask the questions.”

As of the date of the listing, ranchers and other landowners had signed range-wide conservation plan agreements to participate with the federal government on more than 3-million acres.

Hispanic contribution to rocketry recalled Fatal crash See PEARCE, Page A3

blamed on drivers lack of attention

RANDAL SEYLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

When Dr. Robert H. Goddard was in New Mexico creating the era of rocketry that would usher in the Space Age, he had a little help — his Hispanic assistants referred to by Walter Winchell as “his Don Quixotes.”

Roswell resident Erinda Ornelas Vale wants the contribution of the Hispanic community to Goddard’s research remembered, and she wants to honor the men who helped Goddard as well as the famous professor when the city celebrates “Aiming For The Stars” in October.

Vale, 74, says she remembers hearing stories of her father, Pablo Ornelas, and her uncle, Tony Or nelas, and their work with Goddard in the 1930s.

“Many years ago as I watched the American astronauts step on the moon I heard Walter Winchell say, “if it were not for Robert Goddard and his Don Quixotes we would not be seeing this today,” Vale told the League of United Latin American Citizens recently. She asked the LULAC membership to help her promote the history of the Hispanic involvement with Goddard.

Former Mayor Bill Brainard initiated the idea to hold a twoday event to honor the legacy of rocket pioneer Robert H. Goddard and his years of research in Roswell.

Regional legislators speak at annual lunch JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

State legislators provided attendees with a legislative update from this year’s session Monday at the Chamber of Commerce’s Lunch and Learn.

The main topics included explanations of recently passed legislation, education funding, capital outlay, oil and gas revenue funds and agriculture.

House representatives Nora Espinoza, Dist. 59, Bob Wooley, Dist. 66, Candy Spence Ezzell, Dist. 58, were joined by Sens. Stuart Ingle, Dist. 27, Cliff Pirtle, Dist. 32, Bill Bert, Dist. 33, and Gay Kernan, Dist. 42.

“Overall it was a good session. In a 30-day session we’re supposed to do a budget and that’s it,” said Ingle, Senate minority leader. “There was a lot of joint resolutions introduced this year thank goodness only three passed, because that’s something folks vote on. I’m not against voting on things. But there was junk introduced there that were just hideous.”

Ingle explained the process of passing this year’s budget and how he was pleased that the Legislature was able to get it done before the session See LUNCH, Page A3

A Carlsbad woman died Monday after the car she was driving was struck by a commercial truck. State police say driver inattention was a contributing factor in the crash.

Officers responded to the intersection of U.S. 285 and Derrick Road, between Carlsbad and Loving, at 8:06 a.m. One victim was reportedly unresponsive at the scene.

Initial reports showed that Carl Deisher, 47, of Artesia, tried to turn westbound onto Derrick Road off U.S. 285 while driving a 201 Kenworth truck. He tried to make a wide right turn.

Oralia Lara, 50, of Carlsbad, was driving southbound in the outside lane of the highway. When Deisher turned, his commercial vehicle crossed directly in front of Lara’s 2011 Honda passenger car.

Obama speaks with Putin on Ukraine tension WASHINGTON (AP) — Speaking for the first time in more than two weeks, President Barack Obama and Russian President Vladimir Putin showed little sign of agreement Monday, with the U.S. leader urging pro-Russian forces to deescalate the situation in eastern Ukraine and Putin denying that Moscow was inter fering in the region.

The White House said Russia initiated the phone call, which came as pro-Russian forces deepened their insurgency in Ukraine’s east, seizing more than a dozen government buildings.

Police investigate mugging, assault Gabriel Horton, 32, was arrested around 5 p.m. on Sunday, after officers responded to the area of Atkinson Avenue and Pear Street in reference to a call about a man with a gun.

The man, later identified as Horton, had reportedly pointed the gun at an individual and fled, according to police.

Dispatch was able to inform officers that Horton may have headed toward Eldora Drive. A man matching Horton’s description was found by officers on the 800 block of Eldora Drive. Horton was commanded by officers to put his hands up. Instead of complying with the officer’s commands, Horton ran into a residence on the 800 block of Eldora Drive.

Officers ordered Horton out of the residence via patrol car public address system. Horton complied, was detained and arrested.

Through the course of the investigation, officers discovered Horton had allegedly pointed a handgun at three individuals. Two of the individuals were in a vehicle with their two young children when Horton allegedly pointed a gun at them and demanded they exit the vehicle. Instead of exiting, the driver put the vehicle in reverse to get away. Another individual was sitting in the bed of his truck and Horton allegedly pointed a gun at him as well.

Horton has been charged with three counts of aggravated assault, one count of child abuse, and one count of eluding an officer.

Officers took Horton to the Chaves County Detention Center where he remains on a $25,000 cash only bond.

Sub will be used in search for jet

PERTH, Australia (AP) — Search crews will for the first time send a robotic submarine deep into the Indian Ocean on Monday to try to determine whether underwater signals detected by sound-locating equipment are from the missing Malaysian jet’s black boxes, the leader of the search effort said.

The crew on board the Australian navy’s Ocean Shield will launch the unmanned underwater vehicle Monday evening, said Angus Houston, the head of a joint agency coordinating the search off Australia’s west coast. The Bluefin 21 autonomous sub can create a threedimensional sonar map of the area to chart any debris on the seafloor.

The move comes after crews picked up a series of underwater sounds over the past two weeks that were consistent with an aircraft’s black boxes, which contain flight data and cockpit voice recordings.

The devices have beacons that emit “pings” so they can be more easily found, but the beacons’ batteries last only about a month, and it has been more than a month since the plane vanished.

“We haven’t had a single detection in six days, so I guess it’s time to go under water,” Houston said.

Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott raised hopes last week when he said authorities were “very confident” the four underwater signals that have been detected are coming from the black boxes on Flight 370, which disappeared March 8 during a flight from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Beijing.

But Houston warned that while the signals are a promising lead, the public needs to be realistic about the challenges facing search crews, who are contending with an extremely remote, deep patch of ocean.

“I would caution you

against raising hopes that the deployment of the autonomous underwater vehicle will result in the detection of the aircraft wreckage — it may not,” Houston said. “However, this is the best lead we have, and it must be pursued vigorously. Again, I emphasize that this will be a slow and painstaking process.”

The Ocean Shield has been dragging a U.S. Navy device called a towed pinger locator through the water to listen for any sounds from the black boxes’ beacons. Over the past 10 days, the equipment has picked up four separate signals.

The Bluefin sub takes six times longer to cover the same area as the ping locator, and the two devices can’t be used at the same time. Crews were hoping to detect additional signals before sending down the sub, so they could triangulate the source and zero in on where exactly the black boxes may be.

But it has been 38 days since the plane disappeared, and search crews haven’t picked up any new

Lynn and Richard (Dick) Waggoner

Lynn and Dick Waggoner were married in Albuquerque, NM on April 15, 1954. In 1954 income taxes were not due on the 15th, but, it made no difference then, as they had no money anyhow. They were married at the Church on Lomas and Girard. This was a union of two families that had been friends since the turn of the century. Lynn’s Grandfather, Victor Van Hook, and Dick’s grandfather, Walter Mallory, worked for the Santa Fe Railroad, and were based in Las Vegas, New Mexico. Lynn’s grandmother, Grayce Van Hook, remembered Richard’s mother, Chloe Mallory, as a child in Las Vegas. The families had kept in touch over the years. When Victor Van Hook, L ynn’s grandfather was transferred to Albuquerque, he and Grayce took residence across the street from Harold and Chloe Waggoner. Lynn’s Uncle Victor (aka Sonny) was Richard’s childhood buddy. Lynn would come to visit her grandparents, and of course, her Uncle Sonny. Lynn was about 3 years younger than Richard and Sonny; however she still fit in pretty well with the boys’ activities. Richard sort of lost track of Lynn as they grew up. Lynn’s mom and dad, Pauline and John Trigg, settled in Albuquerque.

Lynn went to Highland High School and Richard was off to New Mexico Military Institute. About 3 years after Richard’s 1950 high school graduation from NMMI, he saw a picture of Lynn in a paper. He was so impressed that she had grown to be such a beautiful woman. So, he called Sonny and asked him to set up a date with Lynn. Their first date was December 26, 1953, and a whirlwind romance blossomed. What great news to both sides of the families when they learned that the marriage was in the offing. Richard’s folks remembered Lynn as a pretty little girl with tightly braided pigtails and a cute nose. It was thought that Richard’s mother, Chloe, loved Lynn more than she did Richard.

Richard, with Lynn’s great help, went on to finish Architectural College at UNM and set up his practice in Roswell.

sounds since Tuesday, suggesting that the devices’ batteries may now be dead.

That is why officials will now begin using the Bluefin, Houston said.

The submarine will take 24 hours to complete each mission: two hours to dive to the bottom, 16 hours to search the seafloor, two hours to return to the surface, and four hours to download the data, Houston said. In its first deployment, it will search a 40square-kilometer (15square-mile) section of seafloor.

The black boxes could contain the key to unraveling the mystery of what happened to Flight 370 after it disappeared with 239 people on board. Investigators believe the plane went down in the southern Indian Ocean based on a flight path calculated from its contacts with a satellite and analysis of its speed and fuel capacity. But they still don’t know why.

Meanwhile, officials were investigating an oil slick not far from the area where the underwater sounds were detected, Houston said. Crews have collected

a sample of the oil and are sending it back to Australia for analysis, a process that will take several days.

The oil does not appear to be from any of the ships in the area, but Houston cautioned against jumping to conclusions about its source.

A visual search for debris on the ocean surface was continuing on Monday over 47,600 square kilometers (18,400 square miles) of water about 2,200 kilometers (1,400 miles) northwest of the west coast city of Perth. A total of 12 planes and 15 ships would join the two searches.

But Houston said that the visual search operation would be ending in the next two to three days. Officials haven’t found a single piece of debris linked to the plane, and Houston said the chances that any would be have “greatly diminished.”

“We’ve got no visual objects,” he said. “The only thing we have left at this stage is the four transmissions and an oil slick in the same vicinity, so we will investigate those to their conclusion.”

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — New Mexico may be the worst in the nation when it comes to child well-being, but U.S. Sen. Tom Udall on Monday said raising the minimum wage and providing unemployment insurance to those parents who have been without jobs the longest could make an immediate difference in the lives of children.

“Extra dollars to families really make a difference,” Udall said.

The New Mexico Democrat hosted a round table discussion with children’s advocates, business leaders and others to address the state’s dismal rankings. His goal is to identify steps that can be taken at the federal level to lift children and families out of poverty and to boost opportunities for children to succeed.

Udall acknowledged that improving child well-being

is a concern that transcends New Mexico’s borders. He said too many children in the U.S. are being “neglected, left behind and lost.”

The discussion comes as New Mexico embarks on a series of major reforms to keep abused and neglected children from falling through the cracks. Providing safe environments for children was one of the factors discussed by experts at the meeting.

Other issues included challenges faced by minority populations, access to early childhood education and health care, and poverty.

In New Mexico, the most recent annual Kids Count report shows nearly onethird of children live in poverty and 60 percent live in low-income families.

About 37 percent have parents who lack secure employment.

“Real Estate Corner”

HOW THE “MLS” WORKS

by Connie DeNio of Roswell 622-7191 or 626-7948

If you’re buying or selling a home you probably have heard the term Multiple Listing Service, or MLS, but maybe you’re not quite sure what it means.

Multiple Listing Service is a cooperative listing organization formed by local real estate companies to share the listings they receive from sellers.

Listing brokers enter information into the MLS program - information

which is then immediately available to every real estate office on the MLS system.

This way, a buyer can work with only one broker who has access to all properties listed and who can identify homes which fit the buyer’s needs and price range. When a property is sold, the listing broker and the selling broker share the commission.

“The president emphasized that all irregular forces in the country need to lay down their arms, and he urged President Putin to use his influence with these armed, pro-Russian groups to convince them to depart the buildings they have seized.”

In its own description of the call, the Kremlin said Putin told Obama reports of Russian interference in the region were “based on unreliable information.” The Russian leader also urged Obama to discourage the Ukrainian gover nment from using force against those protesters.

She said she was also frustrated by the money spent on transportation projects in the western region of the state, when highways in southeastern New Mexico remain unfixed.

“Sadly, they wound up being lost and hopefully dispersed.”

Vale said she inquired about the photos at the Roswell Museum and was told they were stored in a box under a counter. Her brother also saw photos in a Las Cruces museum documenting the “Don Quixotes.”

The White House has blamed the unrest on Russia, saying there are undeniable similarities between the situation in eastern Ukraine and the Kremlin’s maneuvers in Crimea, the Black Sea peninsula Russia annexed from Ukraine last month.

“The evidence is compelling that Russia is supporting these efforts and involved in these efforts,” Carney said. “You saw this coordinated effort in a number of cities across easter n Ukraine all at once that sure didn’t look organic to observers from the outside.”

Despite those assertions, it was unclear whether the U.S. planned to respond with deeper economic penalties. Obama has repeatedly warned that Russian advances into eastern Ukraine would mark a serious escalation of the crisis that would warrant a stronger inter national response, including the prospect of sanctions on Russia’s energy

“My uncle Tony had recommended him for the position when he heard there was a need for someone who knew about internal combustion engines,” Vale said. “He was the Hispanic expert on engine repair and rebuilding of old cars. It was his recreation and part-time job.”

sector and other key industries.

But the administration has avoided saying whether Russia’s actions in the east thus far have crossed that line. U.S. officials are also still trying to rally support for sector sanctions from Europe, which has a far deeper economic relationship with Russia and would therefore be more likely to be negatively affected by the penalties.

As part of that effort, Obama spoke Monday with French President Francois Hollande. The French leader said in a statement that he and Obama discussed the importance of avoiding provocations in Ukraine and establishing a policy of strong and calibrated sanctions along with other European partners.

A high-ranking European Union official said foreign ministers did decide Monday to sanction more Russians with asset freezes and visa bans, though they appeared to stop short of the broader penalties on Russia’s economy.

Police: Utah mom admitted to killing her 6 babies PROVO, Utah (AP) — Authorities say a Utah woman accused of killing six babies that she gave birth to over 10 years told investigators that she either strangled or suffocated the children and then put them inside boxes in her garage.

According to a probable cause statement released by police Monday, Megan Huntsman said that between 1996 and 2006, she gave birth to at least seven babies at her home and that all but one of them were born alive.

She said she killed them immediately after they were born, and put their bodies inside boxes. The statement said each baby was wrapped in either a towel or a shirt, and placed in a plastic bag.

Huntsman is being held on $6 million bail.

Transparency: Easy to say, harder to do A4 Tuesday, April 15, 2014

Transparency is hard. Just ask the governor, who is now learning, as her predecessors did, that one of the sacrifices of her job is privacy.

In the latest skirmish of the transparency wars, Gov. Susana Martinez called out a Democratic lawmaker for using a legislative agency to dig dirt on a political opponent.

Some perspective: The Slurpy hit the fan last month after the governor tried to restrict the Legislature’s two biggest watchdogs, the Legislative Finance Committee and the Legislative Education Study Committee, by requiring them to go through her chief of staff for information. A torrent of criticism from the media and both parties forced the governor to uncuff the committees.

This happened just after Sunshine Week, a media event that reminds elected officials to keep their cards on the table and their decisions out in the open.

OPINION

SHERRY ROBINSON

ALL SHE WROTE

Coverage of this controversy was interesting. The Albuquerque Journal, which has been so blatantly pro-Martinez as to sacrifice its credibility, blasted the administration for this move. Even red-county newspapers have noted the long fall from grace of the governor who campaigned on transparency. (To be fair, the Legislature has its own transparency blind spots, but that’s another column.)

We’re seeing more public records challenges.

The Associated Press sued after the Governor’s Office refused to provide records of the governor’s

travel, work schedule, cell phone calls and expenses of her security team. Among other things, the AP wants to know if New Mexico taxpayers subsidized the governor’s participation in Mitt Romney’s campaign for president in 2012.

Former Gov. Bill Richardson made that information available, and he reimbursed the state for security costs of his political appearances, but Martinez’s lawyers argue that enforcement of the state Inspection of Public Records act would violate the U.S. Constitution. The New Mexico Foundation for Open Government disagrees. The Santa Fe New Mexican has asked similar questions and has waited six months for a response.

The Alamogordo Daily News opined: “To suggest that the public only has the right to know about the governors out-of-state travel when it involves official state business is preposterous. Each time

Roswell Daily Record

the governor leaves the state, the lieutenant governor is in charge.

We have a right to know when she is on the job, when she is not, and why.” The News also pointed out that the governor claimed executive privilege in denying records requests, a step she promised not to take during her first State of the State speech.

The Santa Fe Reporter sued after Martinez refused to respond to the newspaper’s questions because she didn’t like the tone of the newspaper’s coverage. In legalese, this is “prior restraint” and hinders the dissemination of information.

In her own mind and on her campaign website, the governor is still the transparency governor for gestures like filming legislative floor sessions and committee meetings and posting employee salaries and state budgets. That suggests she thinks sunshine laws apply to everybody else.

Last week the governor com-

plained that Rep. Patricia Lundstrom, D-Gallup, was using the LFC to gather information to use against an opponent in the primary election. Lundstrom told me she was just trying to ascertain what records are public and it was a miscommunication. Maybe. Lundstrom is one of the smartest and hardest working lawmakers in the Roundhouse, but even smart people can screw up. Using Lundstrom’s mistake to justify muzzling the LFC still doesn’t wash.

More disturbing is the governor’s continued attacks on the LFC’s director and staff, who normally work behind the scenes. They’re probably the most knowledgeable people in state government and certainly among the most respected. Why pick on them?

The governor and her people must hope to deflect criticism as they dodge information requests, but it only reinforces the question, “What’s she hiding?”

EDITORIAL Solution in search of a problem

Is America fundamentally hostile to women? It’s a notion that seems difficult to reconcile with the reality we see around us. In the March jobs report, for instance, women and men had exactly the same unemployment rates. Women substantially outnumber men on American college campuses. And, with 63.7 percent of women voting in the 2012 presidential election (as opposed to 59.7 percent of men), it’s not as if they’re being shut out of the political process.

How, then, should we understand the complaint — formalized in this week’s “Equal Pay Day” — that women make 77 cents for every dollar earned by their male counterparts?

The supposition of the political Left is that the disparity owes to pervasive, institutionalized discrimination. We have to marvel that such a contention — intellectually indistinguishable from a conspiracy theory — receives serious attention from much of the press and the political class.

In order to accept the progressive understanding of the issue, one has to assume that employers throughout the nation are colluding in order to suppress women’s wages — and that there are no dissenting employers out there willing to pay higher wages to attract female talent. In short, one has to be economically illiterate.

The real story is far more prosaic. The difference between the genders owes not to discrimination but to differences in the way that men and women behave in the workforce.

Men tend to work longer hours, choose more dangerous professions (which often pay a premium), and opt for jobs in more lucrative industries.

In addition, women who take time off to have children (especially if their absence from the workforce is prolonged), sacrifice experience, a factor that affects their level of compensation when they return to the job market.

In other words, the discrepancy owes overwhelmingly to people making different choices, not to pervasive discrimination.

Misconceptions about the pay gap are bad enough in the abstract, and worse when they give rise to misguided pieces of legislation like the Paycheck Fairness Act, which the Senate considered Tuesday. The proposed law would not change anyone’s paycheck, but would, instead, make it easier to allege wage discrimination and bring class-action lawsuits. In practical terms, that means employers would face greater potential liabilities when hiring female employees — hardly a recipe for gender equity in the workplace.

America ought to be proud of the tremendous progress made by women over the past half-century — and we ought not to belittle it by finding discrimination when there is none.

The major economic issues facing the country — of which widespread unemployment is surely paramount -- threaten all Americans. If lawmakers want to help women, they should turn their attention to precisely those kinds of pressing concerns.

If hypocrisy were a felony

By Mark Shields Creators Syndicate

(Editors Note: Joe Conason is off this week.)

To be fair, most Republicans have never hidden their distaste for campaign-finance laws that place limits on how much someone can give to a political candidate or campaign, or how much the candidate or the campaign can spend. The reform most consistently championed

by Republicans and conservative editorial pages has instead been support for complete and timely disclosure of all campaign contributions and spending.

And the GOP made a pretty good case in favor of transparency. The 1996 party platform called for “true reform” to be defined as “requiring full and immediate disclosure of all contributions.” Invoking that year’s nominee, the 2000 platform spoke of “Governor (George W.) Bush’s agenda for more honest and open politics” that would “require full and timely disclosure on the Internet of all campaign contributions so that the media and the public can immediately know who is giving

how much to whom.”

The editorial page of The Wall Street Journal has long advocated a trade-off of “disclosing political contributions as part of a larger deregulation that allowed any American to give as much as he wants to any candidate.” Proving he is no Johnnycome-lately to the reform cause, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., wrote in a home-state paper in 1997, “Public disclosure of campaign contributions and spending should be expedited so voters can judge for themselves what is appropriate.”

That’s it: the voters. The ordinary citizens who are now sentenced by Supreme Court decisions to watch helplessly (fewer than a half of 1 percent of the nation’s adults make political contributions of $200 or more) as anonymous oligarchs and unidentified corporations reach into their deep pockets and seek to buy more national elections. Our fundamental American sense of fair play demands that voters be able to “immediately know who is giving how much to whom.”

In making their decisions, voters need to know who is bankrolling the candidates for

Congress as well as who is underwriting the TV commercials attacking their home-state senators. In 2012, the President Barack Obama-affiliated Priorities USA Action, with no requirement to reveal its donors, raised and spent $65 million — all of it in attack ads against Mitt Romney. Shed no tears for Mitt. The Romney-affiliated Restore Our Future collected $142 million (from Lord knows whom, but no American civilians) and spent approximately 85 percent of it attacking the opposition.

Freer and fuller access to information might have helped avoid the Wall Street financial crisis. It would certainly have put the chill on insider trading and it can only help Americans make more-informed decisions about to whom and to what the candidate who seeks their precious votes could be beholden.

But wait, conservative support for full disclosure has disappeared. Just last week, The Wall Street Journal went looking and miraculously found “another reason to rethink our views on campaign-finance disclosure laws.” Comparing the call — which The Journal had

long endorsed -- to make public the contributions of billionaires, such as those of the Koch brothers and George Soros, to “how Southern racists tried to subpoena NAACP membership lists for intimidation purposes in the Jim Crow era” qualifies as a new high, or low, in the rewriting of history.

The new, unimproved Republican position on campaignfinance disclosure is, “Never heard of it.” Gone without a trace from the party platform.

Bluntly put, it’s the 1 percent’s country, and whoever in the 1 percent wants to write a check to, anonymously, destroy an unfriendly incumbent or elect an accommodating challenger, it’s nobody’s business except the purchaser and the purchased. If hypocrisy were a felony, on the issue of campaign-finance disclosure alone, the GOP would be doing hard time.

Talk to your kids early about cyberbullying

DEAR DOCTOR K: My daughter will be starting middle school this year. How can I protect her from cyberbullying?

DEAR READER: Bullying can be particularly difficult during middle and high school, when popularity and peer acceptance feel like the most important parts of life. Adding technology to the mix makes it worse still.

Cyberbullying is not simply bullying that takes place through electronic means. There are two unique problems with bullying through text messages or social media. First, if the bully keeps

ASK DR. K UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

quiet about it, the bullying can be invisible to others. Just your child and the bully know about it.

And if your child has trouble talking to you about it, no one else will know — not teachers,

school counselors or your child’s friends.

Second is the opposite problem made possible by modern technology: The bully can hurt your child by spreading false and hurtful stories very easily to large numbers of people, including most of your child’s classmates.

Once something is out in cyberspace, it’s very hard to control it.

For these reasons, cyberbullying can be particularly damaging.

It can lead to anxiety, depression, substance abuse — even suicide.

It’s not easy to prevent cyberbullying. Probably the most

important thing parents can do is talk to their children about what they do, see and experience online. Start these conversations early — as soon as your child starts using the Internet or a cellphone.

Your child may not come to you if she experiences cyberbullying.

For clues that it might be going on, watch for changes in behavior. Ask lots of questions if you notice this occurring.

If she does encounter any cyberbullying, report it. Some of it could be illegal and should be reported to the police. This

includes threats or sexually explicit content. Even if it’s not illegal, all cyberbullying should be called out. After years of neglect, the problem of school bullying is being taken increasingly seriously. Ask your school’s advice about who the best person to provide help would be. It may be a guidance counselor, or the parent of the bully.

There are two sides to cyberbullying, and you should also talk to your daughter about not becoming a cyberbully herself.

Reference librarians are available to assist patrons in locating the books and information to aid in undertaking your life -changing decisions.

Book talk

If your decision is to maintain a healthier lifestyle, good nutrition and a proper diet are important.

The library has cookbooks related to nutrition, to unique or specialized diets and to just good, enjoyable food. In fact, the collection of cookbooks offers diverse recipes and expertise. Beverages are a popular aspect of food and Amanda Davis, librarian, reference explores drink recipes ranging from indulgent milkshakes to the healthier alter native of juicing to recipes for aspiring bartenders.

Milkshakes, the quintes-

sentially American combination of milk, ice cream and syrup, has delighted generations invoking memories of soda fountains, family fun and high-school activities. Adam Ried’s “Thoroughly Modern Milkshakes” contains 100 classic and contemporary recipes, providing a fresh spin beyond chocolate, strawberry or vanilla. For milkshake modernization, use creative combinations of ingredients to concoct new flavors. There are categories featuring tea and coffee shakes, unconventional shakes, fruity shakes, etc. For instance, cherry juice and preserves added to chocolate and vanilla ice cream create a Black Forest Shake. For the more adventurous, concoct a Mango Chile Lime Shake. If you’re looking to cool down this summer with some fun, new milkshakes or perhaps you want to impress your friends with your culinary creativity, check out “Thoroughly Moder n Milkshakes.”

While milkshakes are an indulgent treat, other folks might be looking for a healthier alternative. Carole Jacobs, a former nutrition editor from Shape magazine, chef Patrice Johnson and dietician Nicole Cormier join together to present “The Everything Juicing Book: All You Need to Create Delicious Juices for Optimum Health!” Together, they provide 150 recipes to make consuming fruits and

veggies fast, delicious and fun. The chapters are broken up with recipes and nutritional infor mation, such as the zinc in cauliflower is recommended for improving memory and can be mixed with tomato to protect cells along with lettuce leaves for a savory juice blend. The Fountain of Youth cocktail combines blackberries, raspberries, lemon and ginger root for loading up on antioxidants.

Not only does the book list the benefits of specific ingredients for juices, it warns of those that may have adverse health effects for certain ailments. If you’re one of the millions of Americans who don’t get their recommended daily amounts of fruits and vegetables, juicing is nutritious and this title is a reference for tasty drinks.

For aspiring bartenders, Dave Broom’s “The New Bartender’s American Handbook” is a handy little guide to a plethora of different drink recipes. There are helpful guides on the ingredients used and he even names the different glassware that is used.

Ray Foley’s “Bartending for Dummies” of fers clear, easy-to-follow instructions.

For less common drink recipes that have more of an upscale flair, Nick Mautone’s “Raising the Bar: Better Drinks Better Entertaining” or Jim Meehan’s “The PDT Cocktail Book: The Complete Bartender’s Guide from the Celebrated Speakeasy” each have their own unique recipes from a

That is exactly what is happening every day in Rio Rancho when groups like Washington Federal and St. Felix Pantry team up to feed the hungry.

Shortly after it arrived in New Mexico, Washington Federal was contacted by St. Felix Pantry asking them to help feed New Mexico’s hungry. Michael Aragon, a local assistant VP and branch manager of Washington Federal in Rio

Rancho, called the pantry and said he had a check for a $1,000 to present to the Pantry. Manuel Casias, vice president of development for St. Felix Pantry says, “that much money goes a long way and will feed several hundred hungry children, older adults, veterans and all the other people coming to the Pantry looking for food every day.”

NATION/OBITUARIES

Post, Guardian win Pulitzers for NSA revelations

NEW YORK (AP) — The Washington Post and The Guardian won the Pulitzer Prize in public service Monday for revealing the U.S. government’s sweeping surveillance programs in a blockbuster series of stories based on secret documents supplied by NSA leaker Edward Snowden.

The Pulitzer for breaking news was awarded to The Boston Globe for its “exhaustive and empathetic” coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing and the manhunt that followed.

Two of the nation’s biggest and most distinguished newspapers, The Post and The New York Times, won two Pulitzers each, while the other awards were scattered among a variety of publications large and small.

The stories about the National Security Agency’s spy programs revealed that the government has systematically collected information about millions of Americans’ phone calls and emails in its effort to head off terrorist attacks. The resulting furor led President Barack Obama to impose limits on the surveillance.

The reporting “helped stimulate the very important discussion about the balance between privacy and security, and that discussion is still going on,” said Sig Gissler, administrator of the Pulitzer Prizes.

The NSA stories were written by Barton Gellman at The Washington Post and Glenn Greenwald, Laura Poitras and Ewen MacAskill, whose work was published by The Guardian US, the British newspaper’s American operation, based in New York.

“I think this is amazing news,” Poitras said. “It’s a testament to Snowden’s courage, a vindication of his courage and his desire to let the public know what the government is doing.”

Snowden, a former contract employee at the NSA, has been charged with espionage and other offenses in the U.S. and could get 30 years in prison if convicted. He has received asylum in Russia.

In a statement issued by the Freedom of the Press Foundation, Snowden saluted “the brave reporters and their colleagues who kept working in the face of extraordinary intimidation, including the forced destruction of journalistic materials, the inappropriate use of terrorism laws, and so many other means of pressure to get them to stop.”

Snowden’s supporters have likened his disclosures to the release of the Pentagon Papers, the secret Vietnam War history whose publication by The New York Times in 1971 won the newspaper a Pulitzer. His critics have branded him a criminal.

“To be rewarding illegal conduct, to be enabling a traitor like Snowden, to me is not something that should be rewarded with a Pulitzer Prize,” said Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y. “Snowden has violated his oath. He has put American lives at risk.”

At The Boston Globe, the newsroom was closed off to outsiders, and staff members marked the announcement of the breakingnews award — coming just a day before the anniversary of the bombing — with a moment of silence for the victims.

“There’s nobody in this room who wanted to cover this story. Each and every one of us hopes that nothing like it ever happens again on our watch,” Globe Editor Brian McGrory told the newsroom.

The bombing last April 15 that killed three people and wounded more than 260 also led to a Pulitzer in the feature photography category for Josh Haner of The New York Times, for his photo essay on a blast victim who lost his legs.

Rancher inspects cattle after showdown Chief: Suspects wore GPS devices during killings

RENO, Nev. (AP) — A Nevada rancher said Monday he’s trying to determine if federal agents damaged his cattle when the animals were rounded up then released in a showdown with angry protesters over a decades-long dispute about rangeland rights.

U.S. Bureau of Land Management Director Neil Kornze said the agency backed off to avoid a potentially violent situation over the weekend.

However, he vowed to go to court to collect more than $1 million in back grazing fees he says Cliven Bundy owes for trespassing on federal lands since the 1990s.

Bundy, whose family has operated a ranch since the 1870s southwest of Mesquite a few miles from the Utah line, does not recognize federal authority on the land that he insists belongs to Nevada.

On Saturday, the bureau released about 400 head of cattle it had seized from Bundy. The operation had been expected to take a month to collect as many as 900 cattle.

The animals were freed after armed militia members joined hundreds of states’ rights protesters at corrals outside Mesquite. Bundy said they were united in defense of their constitutional rights.

“They have faith in the Constitution,” he told KDWN-AM in Las Vegas on Monday. “The founding fathers didn’t create a government like this.”

The BLM’s National Wild Horse and Burro Advisory Board was meeting in Sacramento on Monday on the broader issue fueling the conflict over how to divide the scarce forage on mostly dry lands across the West between livestock, wild horses and wildlife.

Wild-horse protection advocates say the government is rounding up too many mustangs while allowing sheep and cattle to feed at taxpayer expense on the same rangeland scientists say is being overgrazed.

The Bundy family and their supporters fly the American flag as their cattle were released by the Bureau of Land Management back onto public land outside of Bunkerville, Nev., Saturday.

Ranchers say the government refuses to gather enough horses in the herds that double in size every five years.

Advocates on both sides accused the board of not addressing their concerns.

“Americans want wild horses on our public lands,” said wild horse advocate Bonnie Kohleriter. “You cattlemen and wildlife people are special interest groups. ... You need to stop attacking the wild horses, attempting to diminish their numbers, and make resources available to them.”

Debra Hawk, a biologist representing the Wildlife Society, said the BLM’s failure to cut the number of wild horses is harming other species that rely on the land. She criticized the agency for indicating it may not continue the horse roundups, saying the BLM should “utilize all methods available” to cut the population.

“It’s going to take a lot to revive the calves that were nearly dead when they were retur ned to the Bundy Ranch because they had been separated from their mothers during the roundup, and a few most likely won’t make it,” said Fiore, a Republican from Las Vegas. “It’s time for Nevada to stand up to the federal government and demand the return of the BLM lands to the people of Nevada.”

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Two parolees raped and killed at least four women while wearing GPS trackers, and there may be more victims, a California police chief alleged Monday.

Franc Cano and Steven Dean Gordon, both registered sex of fenders, were both wearing ankle bracelets when the women were assaulted and killed last fall and earlier this year, Anaheim police Chief Raul Quezada said at a news conference.

Authorities at the news conference did not explain how Cano and Gordon allegedly managed to carry out the killings while under supervision, but Quezada said data from the GPS devices “was one of the investigative tools we used to put the case together.”

Anaheim police Lt. Bob Dunn earlier said the two were complying with a requirement to check in monthly with authorities and police had no reason to watch them more closely and hadn’t received any such request from other agencies.

The discovery of one woman’s body on a conveyor belt at an Anaheim trash-sorting plant last month was the key to breaking the case, Quezada said.

Investigators were seeking the other bodies.

“They put a stop to a serial killing that would likely have continued beyond this point,” District Attorney Tony Rackauckas said at the news conference.

Quezada said authorities were confident that there was at least a fifth victim and perhaps more.

The department has contacted other places with missing-persons cases across the country, Dunn said earlier.

Police believe the men killed a woman in Anaheim this year and three in Santa Ana last October and November while on parole.

Cano, 27, and Gordon, 45, were arrested by investigators on Friday. Each man was charged Monday with four felony counts of special circumstances murder and four felony counts of rape.

If convicted, they could face a minimum sentence of life without parole or the death penalty. They were being held without bail and expected to be arraigned Tuesday.

Police at first didn’t link the disappearances of the four women.

“These individuals were not on our radar whatsoever,” Santa Ana Police Chief Carlos Rojas said.

Aw, geez, ‘Fargo’ is on TV with Billy Bob Thornton

NEW YORK (AP) — After failed attempts and broken dreams, by golly, someone went and put “Fargo” on series TV. The 10-episode season premieres Tuesday at 10 p.m. EDT on FX. And it mesmerizes. As a furtherance of the 1996 crime classic by Joel and Ethan Coen that starred Frances McDormand, William H. Macy and Steve Buscemi, the TV adaptation is a wonder.

Like that movie, the series is set in rural, snow-glazed Minnesota, but 20 years later (in 2006), and is stocked with new characters, deadly mischief and a bounty of stars including Allison Tolman as a bright-eyed deputy and Martin Freeman as a nebbishy insurance salesman (distant echoes of the roles played by McDormand and Macy in the film). Also on hand are Colin Hanks, Bob Odenkirk, Oliver Platt, Kate Walsh, Keith Carradine, Adam Goldberg, Keegan-Michael Key and Jordan Peele, and more.

At the core of its deliciously deranged narrative is Lorne Malvo, a sotto-voce psycho whose mysterious path brings him to the town of

Bemidji, with many repercussions.

Lorne is played by Billy Bob Thornton, who still radiates menace while sporting what he calls “a haircut gone wrong.”

“This was not from a salon,” Thornton explains. “It was done by a friend. But looking in the mirror, I thought, ‘Wow — this dark character having bangs, which you associate with innocence, would be great.’ So we decided to go with it.”

The man bringing “Fargo” back to life after ill-fated tries by NBC and CBS in the late 1990s is Noah Hawley, who serves as the show runner, an executive producer and the writer of all 10 episodes.

Somehow Hawley internalized the rules and deadpan tone of the Coens (who are also onboard as executive producers), then ran with their sense of twisted realism to create his own thing.

“He captured the Coen Brothers’ spirit, got their vibe, and yet he did not imitate ’em,” says Thornton. “I thought, if you’ve done that, you’ve done something great.”

And when he encountered Lorne

Malvo in Hawley’s pilot script, “I don’t know why, but I just went, ‘Yeah. That fits: a hand in a glove.’

“I liked the idea of playing a guy who has no conscience,” Thornton goes on. “He has this weird sense of humor. He likes to mess with people.

And as we went along I started thinking, he’s a loner, so messing with people is actually his social life, his recreation.”

This is a guy who, when threatened on his home turf by a thug twice his size, unconcer nedly steps to his bathroom, drops his trousers and takes a seat. His foe, appalled, beats a hasty retreat.

“He doesn’t like weakness,” Thornton adds. “He has this weird curiosity about weak people. And he sees them as people he can use.”

Having drawn Freeman’s jammedup pipsqueak into his lair, Lorne shares his code on being tough: “We used to be gorillas. All we have is what we can take and defend.”

MTV Movie Awards big Hollywood studio plug-fest

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Last year, the MTV Movie Awards moved up its broadcast date from June to April to incorporate a summer movie plug-fest. Sunday night’s show cemented that change as clips from anticipated blockbusters debuted at the madcap ceremony.

Now in its 22nd year, the MTV Movie Awards show has become an important event for Hollywood studios. And, oh yes, there were some awards, too.

Last year’s show, which saw an average of 3.8 million viewers, up from 3.2 million for the previous year’s telecast, included new footage from “Iron Man 3” and the world premiere of “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” trailer, which was introduced by Liam Hemsworth, one of the film’s stars.

Sure, an abundance of golden popcorn-shaped prizes were again presented for fun fair, like the

award for best shirtless performance, which Zac Efron accepted, well, shirtless. But it’s the summer movie teasers — and the stars attached to them — that really make the show.

Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone (who will also appear in Woody Allen’s “Magic in the Moonlight,” opening July 25) and Jamie Foxx star in the seventh installment of Sony’s “Spider -Man” franchise, which kicks off the summer movie season on May 2. The trio introduced a film clip showing SpiderMan (Garfield) and the sparkling blue villain Electro (Foxx) battling in New York’s Times Square.

Fox’s “X-Men: Days of Future Past” was touted with an intro by Ellen Page, who plays Shadowcat.

The film, out May 23, sees the XMen joining forces with their younger selves and introduces a number of new mutants — Blink, Sunspot, Warpath and Bishop.

Aaron Taylor-Johnson, star of Warner Bros.’ “Godzilla,” which opens May 16, presented the award for best fight. A short clip of the film, showing the monster preparing to wreak havoc, aired before Taylor-Johnson appeared onstage.

Seth Rogen, Dave Franco and Efron, who lead Universal Pictures’ comedy “Neighbors,” out May 9, presented the award for best kiss.

No clip was shown for DisneyMarvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy,” a bit of a superhero spoof set in space, but Chris Pratt, the star of the film, out Aug. 1, checked in with a long speech encouraging viewers to vote for their favorite nominees online.

First-look footage from Fox’s “The Fault in Our Stars,” starring Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort, showed the beginnings of the on-screen couple’s romance in the

heartfelt comedy.

Mark Wahlberg, who received the generation award, touted his upcoming “Transformers: Age of Extinction,” saying the Paramount Pictures’ flick would be the biggest movie of 2014. Some of the crew of the hit HBO show “Entourage” presented Wahlberg with his award, and the presence of Adrian Grenier, Jerry Ferrara and Kevin Dillon reminded viewers the “Entourage” movie is being readied for 2015.

Channing Tatum will appear in the buddy cop comedy “22 Jump Street,” out June 13, with Jonah Hill (who picked up the best comedic performance award for “The Wolf of Wall Street”) and the sci-fi fantasy “Jupiter Ascending,” out July 18, with Mila Kunis (who scored the title of best villain for “Oz the Great and Powerful”).

Both Kunis, looking very pregnant in a short, loose black dress,

and Hill presented Tatum with his Trailblazer Award.

And not to be missed was Josh Hutcherson’s mention of Philip Seymour Hoffman, who died Feb. 2 from a combination of heroin, cocaine and other drugs.

Hoffman appeared in “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire,” which earned the evening’s top prize of movie of the year.

“If Philip were here he would think this was really cool,” said Hutcherson, one of the stars of “Hunger Games” and the recipient of the best male performance award.

“To have him in our movie was one of the coolest things,” Hutcherson said. “We think about him every day on set. This definitely goes out to him as well.”

“The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 1” will be released later this year.

Bubba Watson wins another green jacket

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — One of golf’s most exciting players squeezed most of the drama out of the Masters on Sunday. That’s just fine with Bubba Watson.

All he cared about was slipping into that green jacket.

Instead of hitting a 40-yard hook out of a forest of Georgia pines — the signature shot in his playoff victory two years ago — the final act Sunday at Augusta National took place on the 18th green. Watson had a three-shot lead and consulted with his caddie on a 15-foot birdie putt.

“I went over to him and I said, ‘I’m not very good at math, but we’ve got four putts, right?”’ Watson said.

This was more about great golf than Bubba golf.

Watson kept his poise during an early burst of birdies from 20-year-old Jordan Spieth, turned the tournament in his favor with consecutive two-shot swings to close

out the front nine, and coasted to a 3-under 69 to win the Masters by three shots over Spieth and Jonas Blixt of Sweden.

“Small-town guy named Bubba now has two green jackets,” Watson said. “It’s pretty wild.”

Watson made it look routine over the final hour. On a Sunday when Spieth was trying to become the youngest winner in Masters history and 50-year-old Miguel Angel Jimenez had a chance to become the oldest major champion, Watson turned in another masterpiece and joined an elite group as the 17th player to win multiple Masters.

Surprisingly for Augusta, the most compelling action was on the front nine.

His only nervous moment was a drive so mammoth around the corner on the 13th hole that it clipped a few trees and still went some 360 yards, leaving just a sand wedge into the par 5. That was his lone birdie on the See BUBBA, Page B4

SPOTLIGHT

Michael Phelps is coming out of retirement, lured back into the pool by the fun of it and the possibility of swimming at a fifth Olympics in Rio in 2016.

The 22-time Olympic medalist will compete for the first time since the 2012 London Games at a meet in Mesa, Ariz., on April 24-26.

Bob Bowman, the swimmer’s longtime coach, told The Associated Press on Monday that Phelps is entered in three events — the 50- and 100-meter freestyles and the 100 butterfly.

“I think he’s just going to test the waters a little bit and see how it goes,” Bowman said by phone from Baltimore. “I wouldn’t say it’s a full-fledged comeback.”

Phelps returned to training last fall and reentered the U.S. drug-testing program. He has completed his six-month waiting period by the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency to be eligible for competition.

Bowman said Phelps is “pretty far” from being back in top form. He’s been training Monday through Friday with Bowman’s team at the North Baltimore Aquatic Club.

“He’s gotten back into good shape since September,” the coach said. “He can give a good effort and certainly not be embarrassed. He’s in enough shape to swim competitively.”

Besides Phelps, USA Swimming said Olympians Ryan Lochte and Katie Ledecky are among those expected to swim in the Arena See PHELPS, Page B4

49ers’ Aldon Smith arrested at airport B2 Tuesday, April 15, 2014

SPORTS

LO S A NG E L ES (A P ) — S a n F r a nc i sco 4 9 e r s l i ne b ac k er Aldon Smith was arrested Sunday at Los Angeles International after authorities said he became belligerent during a security screening and threatened that he had a bomb.

The 24-year -old player was randomly selected for a secondary screening at Terminal 1 and became uncooperative with the p r o ce ss , ai rp or t p ol i ce Sg t .

Karla Ortiz said. She said he told a TSA agent that he had a b o m b b ef or e w a l ki ng t o t h e gate. When airport police officers caught up with him, Ortiz said Smith became uncooperative and was taken into custody.

A w it n es s v id e o p o st e d o n TMZ.com shows Smith exchanging words with an officer as he

was b ei n g h a n dc uf f ed an d escorted out of the gate area.

Wi t h t h e a r r es t, S mit h i s involved in three pending criminal cases.

“We are disappointed to learn of the incident today involving Aldon Smith,” 49ers general manager Trent Baalke said in a statement. “As this is a pending legal matter and we ar e still gathering the pertinent facts, we will have no further comment.”

A fearsome pass-rushing specialist, Smith took a five-game leave of absence from the 49ers last season to undergo treatment for substance abuse. He rejoined the team Nov. 5.

Smith played in a 27-7 home loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sept. 22, two days after he was

arrested and jailed on suspicion of DUI and marijuana possession. After the game, he publicly apologized for his behavior and later announced he would leave for treatment.

Leading up to the playoffs in early January, Smith said during an interview with The Associated Press he was encouraged by the strides he had made to better himself off the football fiel d t h a t p u t l if e — an d h is work — in perspective. He said at the time he hadn’t had any alcohol since before his Sept. 20 DUI arrest, and that he wasn’t craving it. When he rejoined the team Nov. 5, he insisted he was on the path to lifelong sobriety and stuck by that statement.

Smith emerged as one of the NFL’s most-feared pass rushers in 2012. He had a franchiserecord 19.5 sacks that year, but failed to record a sack in his final six games including the team’s postseason Super Bowl run.

S m it h fin ish e d wit h 8 1 /2 s ack s a n d 3 4 t ack le s in 1 1 games last season, making eight starts.

In November, Smith pleaded not guilty to three felony counts o f ill eg al p oss ession of an assault weapon, stemming from a June 2012 party at his home.

Investigators say several shots were fired, two partygoers were injured and Smith was stabbed.

In the subsequent investigation,

Smith and former teammate Delanie Walker were named in a lawsuit last September filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court by a Northern California man who said he was shot at a party at Smith’s house on June 29, 2012.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Miami Heat opted for rest for LeBron James and Chris Bosh over the pursuit of the Eastern Conference’s top seed, and the Washington Wizards capitalized in a 114-93 breeze of a game Monday night that clinched the No. 1 seed for the Indiana Pacers.

Trevor Ariza scored 25 points for the Wizards, who shot 59 percent and made 14 3-pointers to move 1 1/2 games ahead of the Charlotte Bobcats in the race for the East’s No. 6 seed. Washington would secure sixth place if the Bobcats lost at Atlanta

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Adrian Beltre was hoping to get back in the lineup for the Texas Rangers this week before being told he was going on the disabled list instead because of a strained left quadriceps muscle.

“I did not agree with the decision. It was out of my hands,” Beltre said Monday, a day after the DL move was made. “Obviously the medical staff and the front office thought it was best. ... I have no say over that.”

The Rangers are being cautious, and the 35-year-old third baseman even acknowledged that the move was “probably smart.”

Beltre said he was ready to try to play Tuesday night in the second game of the home series against Seattle. He played five seasons for the Mariners before joining the Rangers as a free agent before the 2011 season.

After coming out of a game at Boston last Tuesday, Beltre returned to Texas for a medical exam and an MRI. With the disabled list move retroactive to Wednesday, the earliest he will be eligible to be activated is April 24, an off day for the Rangers.

Even while dealing with hamstring issues most of last season, Beltre played 161 games. His last DL stint was for five weeks late in the 2011 season because of a left hamstring strain.

Beltre said he was planning to manage the quad issue like he did with the hamstring last season, and is used to not being 100 percent healthy.

“But this is a different injury than I’m used to,” he said. “There was nothing I could say because the decision was already made.”

Manager Ron Washington said it was a tough decision, but that the team is hopeful that the extra time for Beltre now will be beneficial for the third baseman and the team as the season progresses.

General manager Jon Daniels had indicated over the weekend that the Rangers were leaning to putting Beltre on the disabled list.

Beltre went through a workout with no issues Saturday, but he wasn’t able to get on the field for another scheduled session Sunday because of poor weather.

The Rangers announced just before Sunday’s game the DL move for Beltre that created a spot on the roster for newly acquired right-hander Hector Noesi.

coach Erik Spoelstra sat James and Bosh, saying they were dealing with “the residual of a long season.”

“Just where we are right now, (James is) dealing with some minor ailments,” Spoelstra said. “Nothing that’s significant enough that will keep him out.

Same thing with Chris. We made this decision and everyone else is ready to go. Everything is day by day.”

James has made it part of his annual routine to rest before the playoffs. He missed the final game in 2011 and sat out the last two in both 2012 and

2013.

The Heat went with their 20th starting lineup this season and trailed by as many as 36 in the second half. Dwyane Wade, who needs the work after returning Sunday from a sore right hamstring that cost him nine games, started and scored nine points in 18 minutes.

The Heat have lost four of five. Miami is just 11-13 since March 4, including 39 on the road.

Marcin Gortat had 10 points and 13 rebounds, and John Wall added 13 assists for the Wizards, who have been hot and

Browns’ Mack looking forward with business over

BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Dressed in a powder blue T-shirt, plaid shorts and a pair of flip-flops, Alex Mack looked ready to take a stroll on a beach somewhere in Florida.

Maybe someday.

Instead, Mack walked back into work in Cleveland, still a member of the Browns.

Relieved that a whirlwind few weeks are behind him, the Pro Bowl center said he’s looking forward to focusing on football and a day when the Browns stabilize into a consistent winner.

“It’s been a long road, and I’m absolutely happy with where I’m at,” he said. “I’m here to win games. I’m here to work hard.

That’s what we’re all about.”

Mack reported for the Browns’ offseason program on Monday, three days after the team quickly matched the five-year, $42 million offer sheet he signed from the Jacksonville Jaguars. The deal, which guarantees him $18 million in the first two years, also allows Mack an option to become a free agent in 2016, when he could choose to leave Cleveland.

For now, he’s not going anywhere other than to the weight room, and intends to spend the next few weeks learning Cleveland’s new offense.

At various points during his complicated entanglement, Mack, who had been given a transition tag by the Browns when free agency began, was reportedly fed up with the constant losing and turnover in Cleveland. And while he acknowledged the instability has worn on him, Mack insisted that any stories floated about his dissatisfaction with the Browns was merely “positioning” by his agents.

“Business is business,” he said. “All I can say is that I’m happy to be here, I’m excited to play football and I’m ready to work.”

Now the NFL’s richest center, Mack, who has played 4,998 consecutive snaps since the Browns drafted him in 2009, said he’s encouraged by some of the team’s moves this winter, including the hiring of coach Mike Pettine. Mack has played under three other head coaches in his first five seasons with Cleveland.

Before free agency opened, Pettine traveled along with owner Jimmy Haslam and several assistant coaches to visit Mack. He said the meeting had a positive effect on him.

“I’ve had pretty much only two opportunities to really interact with him now and it’s been real positive,” Mack said of Pettine.

“He flew out to California. I had a really good strong message there. It was exciting today in the team meeting also. It was good to see him in the workplace environment.”

The Browns feel the same way about seeing Mack back in their headquarters.

As the 6-foot-4, 310-pound Mack met with reporters, there were members of the team’s sales staff nearby working the phones as they tried to get season-ticket holders to renew and others to buy into Cleveland’s future. With Mack sticking around, it’s an easier sell.

Mack has been impressed with what new general Ray Farmer has done to enhance Cleveland’s roster.

“I think we have a really good core group of guys,” Mack said. “I think we have a lot of talent on this team and it was exciting to think about coming back here and seeing what we can build. We added a good group of guys last year and we had a lot of real tight games, so when you think about how close you were and just building upon that into this year, I’m excited.”

Along with traveling to Peru and Brazil this winter, Mack also had a stopover in Jacksonville, where the Jaguars made an impressive presentation and nearly stole Mack away before the Browns intervened.

He nearly changed team colors, but is glad to stay in brown and orange.

“I was excited to see what they brought and when I signed the contract, I had to be OK with either way it went,” he said. “It’s a

cold down the stretch but at least have found a way to escape their 3-point shooting slump. After going 6 for 50 from long range over a three-game span, they’ve since made 22 of 51 in their last two games.

Ariza, whose shooting was hampered by a bout with the flu, made 5 of 8 3pointers Monday night.

Also, Nene, who sat out the Wizards’ previous game after feeling some stiffness in his recently sprained left knee, looked more like his energetic old self as he scored 18 points of f the bench.

Nene converted back-to-

back three-point plays in the second quarter to give the Wizards their first 10point lead, overpowering Chris Anderson with a baseline move on the first one and taking a nice feed from Andre Miller to set up the second.

Miller supplied the game’s biggest highlight, making an overhand paintto-paint pass to Beal that would make an NFL quarterback jealous. Miller hit Beal in stride as if it were a post patter n, and Beal made the layup in one fluid motion while drawing a foul to get a three-point play.

NBA Capsules: Bobcats edge Hawks SPORTS

Roswell Daily Record

ATLANTA (AP) — Chris Douglas-Roberts dribbled into the lane and sank a short jumper as time expired, and the Charlotte Bobcats overcame a 15point deficit in the final period to beat the Atlanta Hawks 95-93 on Monday.

Al Jefferson had 27 points and 15 rebounds for Charlotte, which remained one game behind Washington in the race for the sixth spot in the Eastern Conference playoffs. Gary Neal had 17.

Jefferson’s turnaround jumper gave the Bobcats a 93-91 lead before Lou Williams answered with a tying jumper for Atlanta with 2.6 seconds remaining.

Following a timeout, Douglas-Roberts penetrated and lobbed the soft jumper as the buzzer sounded.

The Hawks rested starters Kyle Korver, Paul Millsap and DeMarre Carroll. Mike

Scott led Atlanta with 20 points.

Raptors 110, Bucks 100 TORONTO (AP) — Greivis Vasquez scored 25 points, Kyle Lowry had 24 and the Toronto Raptors set a franchise record with their 48th win, beating the Milwaukee Bucks.

Jonas Valanciunas had 14 points and 13 rebounds and Tyler Hansbrough had 12 points and 11 rebounds as the Raptors won for the sixth time in seven games and completed the first season sweep of Milwaukee in franchise history.

Toronto had dropped 11 consecutive games against the Bucks coming into this season, but has since won four straight.

Ramon Sessions scored 21 points, Jeff Adrien had 19 points and Brandon Knight 18 as the Bucks lost

their 14th straight road game, matching a record for futility set in the 2004-05 season. Milwaukee has not won away from home since beating Philadelphia on Feb. 24.

76ers 113, Celtics 108 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Michael Carter-Williams had 21 points and 14 rebounds, Tony Wroten scored 20 points, and the Philadelphia 76ers beat the Boston Celtics.

Chris Johnson appeared to hit the tying 3-pointer with 0.9 seconds remaining, but stepped out of bounds before attempting the desperation shot. James Anderson made two free throws a half-second later to seal Philadelphia’s win.

Kelly Olynyk scored 28 points to lead the Celtics.

Jeff Green had 27 points and Avery Bradley added 23.

Rajon Rondo finished with eight points, 14 assists and 11 rebounds.

Bulls 108, Magic 95 CHICAGO (AP) — Joakim Noah had 18 points and 10 rebounds and eight assists, Mike Dunleavy scored 22 points and the Chicago Bulls pulled away late for a victory over the Orlando Magic.

With one game left in the regular season, the Bulls are fourth in the Eastern Conference playoff race and looking at a first-round matchup with Brooklyn.

Rockets 104, Spurs 98 HOUSTON (AP) — Chandler Parsons scored 21 points and Dwight Howard and Terrence Jones added 20 apiece to lift the Houston Rockets to a win over the San Antonio Spurs.

The victory gave No. 4 seed Houston home-court advantage in their firstround playoff series with Portland.

San Antonio used a big run at the beginning of the fourth quarter to go on top and was up by three later in the period when Houston scored eight straight to regain the lead, 95-90.

Pelicans 101, Thunder 89 NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Tyreke Evans scored a career-high 41 points to go with nine rebounds, eight assists and three steals, and the New Orleans Pelicans snapped an eight-game skid

by shocking the playoffbound Thunder.

New Orleans beat the Thunder for the first time in 11 meetings, dating to Jan. 24, 2011.

Evans made 14 of 26 shots while scoring mostly on quick, powerful bursts to the hoop. He also scored 12 points at the foul line and made a 3 that put the Pelicans ahead 90-82 with 4:21 left.

Kevin Durant scored 25 for the Thunder, who have lost two straight and won’t lock up the No. 2 seed in the Western Conference playoffs without at least one more win or a Los Angeles Clippers loss.

Remaking of Von Miller’s image well under way Chicago’s Carlos Boozer, right, dribbles past Orlando’s Kyle O'Quinn during their game, Monday.

DENVER (AP) — The reshaping of Von Miller’s image and physique are well under way.

After a rough 2013 season that began with a six-game drug suspension and ended with a blown out knee in December, the Denver Broncos pass-rusher showed up for his foundation’s inaugural event at Sports Authority Field Monday night 20 pounds lighter and with a rediscovered smile.

In between posing with kids for selfie photos on their cell phones, Miller helped hand out prescription glasses to 104 underprivileged children.

“I can’t even put into words how it makes me feel, especially through all the stuff that’s been going on and still be able to do stuff for the community and do some positive, it’s great,” Miller said.

The glasses provided by his Von’s Vision foundation for the

kids ages 6-13 “could be a gamechanger in the classroom,” said Miller, who’s known almost as much for his big-frame glasses he sports off the field as for his tormenting of QBs on it.

Miller has kept a low profile this offseason, save for trying to get into the Seahawks’ Super Bowl party following Seattle’s 438 win over Denver, a game Miller watched from the sideline after undergoing knee surgery to repair a torn right ACL in January.

Miller, however, insisted this charity event had nothing to do with rehabilitating his image that took a beating last year.

“I’m not too big on the perception of the fans. In time everybody will see the type of guy that I am and the type of things that I do,” Miller said. “I can’t rush that. But the guys in the locker room, my teammates, the people

who are close to me, they know what type of guy I am.”

Still, TV shots of Miller mingling and laughing with kids from the Boys & Girls Clubs in the Denver area are a welcome sight for the Broncos, who witnessed several missteps by Miller last season, including an arrest at a local gun club for a missed court appearance.

Broncos general manager John Elway said this offseason that he believes Miller, who turned 25 last month, has matured and needs to put last year behind him.

What was clear Monday night is that Miller’s frame is back to what it was in 2011 and ’12 before he bulked up to 270 pounds last season, 24 more than what it was when the Broncos made him the second overall pick out of Texas A&M in 2011.

Miller said he’s down to about

250 pounds.

“I’m great right there,” he said.

Miller said he began light running two weeks ago: “Not nothing like marathon stuff but I’ve been getting back into the motion. I’m feeling good about it. I don’t have a timetable or anything like I want to be back Aug. 3 or anything like that. But today I’m ahead of schedule and I’m feeling good,” Miller said.

He said he hopes to be back to 100 percent by the season opener.

“I want to play every game this year,” Miller said. “I would like to play every game. But if it’s not there, it’s not there. I don’t want to put any limitations on where I want to be at or this or that. I’m just going to grind and attack every day and I truly believe it’ll work out.”

Miller said Adrian Peterson’s remarkable recovery from a torn

ACL to an MVP season two years ago set a new standard in the NFL. “He definitely set the bar high and it’s a great thing. It’s a great challenge and I embrace it and I’m hoping I can grind and do something similar,” Miller said.

Miller, who had just five sacks in nine games last season after collecting 30 his first two seasons, including a team record 18 1/2 in 2012, said he believes his best years are ahead of him, especially now that DeMarcus Ware is his teammate.

“I mean, I’m 25 years old. I’m hoping that my coming years are better than my first two,” he said. “Every year I get smarter with the game. You recognize stuff faster. The game is a little bit slower. Vets told me when I first came in that was going to happen. I think it’s starting to happen.”

Mariners add run on replay, beat Rangers Chen sharp as Orioles

Seattle’s Mike Zunino runs the bases after a solo homer during the Mariners’ game against Texas, Monday.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Mike Zunino homered an inning before adding an RBI single in Seattle’s strange six-run outburst that included three Texas Rangers errors and a replay reversal that gave the Mariners a run in their 7-1 victory Monday night.

Roenis Elias (1-1) worked into the seventh inning with five strikeouts for his first major league victory in the left-hander’s third career start.

The Mariners went ahead to stay in the fifth on Zunino’s solo homer off Colby Lewis (0-1), who made his first big league start in 21 months after elbow and hip operations.

Seattle’s six-run sixth got started when Robinson Cano hit a leadoff single and scored on Michael Saunders’ triple to left-center — a ball that center fielder Leonys Martin bobbled without getting charged with an error. Kyle Seager followed with an RBI single that chased Lewis, and then things got interesting.

Dustin Ackley and Zunino had consecutive RBI singles after catcher J.P.

Arencibia couldn’t pull in a foul ball before reaching out and teetering over a camera well railing. Mix in two fielding errors, and the bases were loaded when Brad Miller hit a comebacker.

Relief pitcher Pedro Figueroa threw home, and umpire Paul Schrieber initially ruled a forceout even though Arencibia bobbled the ball on a transfer without dropping it or making a throw.

Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon challenged the call. After a review that took 3 minutes, 31 seconds, the umpires reversed their ruling, erasing the out and giving Seattle a run on the error by Arencibia.

Rangers manager Ron Washington immediately came out to argue and was ejected by crew chief Ted Barrett because managers aren’t allowed to argue replay rulings. Washington’s ejection came a night after Boston manager John Farrell became the first big league skipper tossed under those circumstances this season.

beat Tampa Bay 7-1

BALTIMORE (AP) — Wei-Yin Chen pitched better than he had all season, and Tampa Bay Rays righthander Chris Archer was never worse.

The result was a lopsided 7-1 victory for the Baltimore Orioles, who got their offense back on track Monday night at Archer’s expense.

Chen (2-1) retired his first 10 batters and didn’t allow a hit until James Loney doubled with one out in the fifth. The left-hander gave up one run, five hits and two walks in 6 1/3 innings.

In his previous two starts, Chen yielded eight runs and 21 hits in 10 2/3 innings.

“I think the main difference tonight was the movement on my pitches was better and the hitters had more trouble with it,” Chen said through a translator.

Chen also got a big assist from his defense, beginning with the first play of the game when third baseman Ryan Flaherty snagged a sharp grounder and threw out Ben Zobrist.

“I thought balls went right at some fielders,” Orioles manager Buck Showalter said. “We were fortunate tonight. Real good defense. ... The baseball gods were kind to him tonight after not being kind to him early on.”

Matt Wieters and J.J. Hardy each had three hits, scored twice and drove in a run for the Orioles, who were coming off a three-game series against Toronto in which they scored only five runs in 30 innings.

In this one, Baltimore built a 6-0 lead over the first three innings and coasted to the finish. The Orioles had 13 hits, including five doubles.

“A lot of big two-out hits, a lot of big RBIs with guys on second,” Wieters said. “It wasn’t really the long ball that did it tonight, but we found a way to win.”

back nine. No one got closer than three shots the rest of the way.

“The shot out of the woods made me famous,” Watson said. “But this one was a lot better for me and my nerves.”

This was nothing like the Masters he won two years ago, especially when it was over.

His wife and newly adopted son were home in Florida in 2012 when Watson made four straight birdies on the back nine and won on the second playoff hole with his great escape out of the trees.

When he tapped in for par on 18, there was 2-year-old Caleb — decked out in a green-and-white striped Masters shirt and green tennis shoes — walking toward him. Watson had tears streaming down his face when he scooped him up, a prize as great as the green jacket.

“Seeing him back there ... what an amazing feeling as a parent,” he said. “And

then throw on the green jacket on top of it just changes everything.”

After high-fiving the crowd on his way to sign his card, Watson returned to Butler Cabin to take back that green jacket after slipping it on Adam Scott a year ago.

“After giving it away last year, I wanted it back,” Watson said. “I told Adam we could just swap it back and forth every year.”

Spieth could only watch from the side of the green.

He dazzled the massive crowd early by holing out for birdie from the front bunker on No. 4, and making backto-back birdies to build a two-shot lead through seven holes. Bidding to become the first player in 35 years to win a green jacket in his first try, Spieth looked to be well on his way.

But he three-putted for bogey on No. 8 — the first 6 on his card all week — as Watson got up-and-down for birdie to tie for the lead. Spieth then made a rookie mistake, leaving his approach below the flagstick on No. 9 and watching it roll back into the fairway, setting up

Grand Prix at Skyline Aquatic Center.

“I’m excited to see what he can do,” Ledecky told the AP by phone in between classes at her high school in Maryland.

“Definitely it’ll bring some more energy to swimming again.”

Phelps turns 29 in June and is the winningest and most decorated athlete in Olympic history. He captured 18 gold medals and 22 medals overall at the last three Summer Games. He broke Mark Spitz’s record for a single Olympics by winning eight gold medals at Beijing in 2008.

If he comes back and doesn’t dominate, Bowman said it wouldn’t tarnish Phelps’ reputation.

“His legacy is sealed,” the coach said.

Ledecky agreed that Phelps has nothing to lose by diving back in.

“It’s just for his own personal kind of thing,” she said. “He’s already done so much. Whether he adds a couple more gold medals or not, what he’s done has been so incredible, whatever he does next should be accepted by all.”

Phelps had vowed that he wouldn’t swim into his 30s. Since retiring less than two years ago, he has stayed busy with a chain of swim schools, a foundation focused on water safety and appearances on behalf of his sponsors. He devoted lots of time to golf and participated in a reality

another bogey and two-shot swing.

Whatever prayer he had might have ended at Amen Corner.

His tee shot on No. 12 found Rae’s Creek. He missed a short birdie attempt on the 13th.

Watson was too powerful, too experienced, too tough to beat. Spieth closed with six pars for a 72 and tied for second with Blixt, who never went away but never really threatened. Blixt shot a 71.

“Obviously, I’ve worked my whole life to lead Augusta on Sunday. And although I feel like it’s very early in my career, and I’ll have more chances, it’s a stinger,” Spieth said.

Watson finished at 8under 280 and goes to a career -best No. 4 in the world.

Jimenez, the ageless wonder from Spain, shot 71 and finished alone in fourth.

Matt Kuchar lost a share of the lead with a four -putt double bogey on the fourth hole and never challenged again. He closed with a 74 and tied for fifth with Rickie Fowler (73).

show with famed coach Hank Haney.

His camp is being low-key about the comeback.

“I think he’s just really enjoying it,” Bowman said. “He enjoys the training and being physically fit. He just kind of wants to see where he’s at. It’s more really for fun. It’s been nice for me to see him swim just for the joy of it really.”

Olympian Jessica Hardy, who will compete in Mesa, said many swimmers were surprised by the news.

“He kept it pretty much under wraps,” she told the AP. “Even if he’s not at peak performance, it’s great for the sport and each athlete particularly to keep learning from him. I don’t think anyone wants to put pressure on him. He’s accomplished everything you pretty much can. It’s just great to see what else you can do.”

Phelps won’t be coming back for the money, having earned tens of millions of dollars in endorsements during his career.

However, his endorsement potential certainly goes up if he’s in the water. His presence on the pool deck will give a boost to USA Swimming, which can endlessly market him.

“Anytime you can have the most decorated Olympian in history in the pool, it’s a fantastic thing for swimming,” said Chuck Wielgus, executive director of USA Swimming. “USA Swimming and Michael share the goal of growing the sport, and his return to competition will surely inspire even more kids to give swimming a try.”

Roswell Daily Record

Nine players were separated by three shots at the start of the final round only for this to turn into a twoman show. For the opening two hours, it was anything but dull.

After trading pars on the opening hole, either Watson or Spieth — sometimes both — made birdie or bogey over the next nine holes.

Spieth holed out from a bunker for birdie on the tough par -3 fourth. He made back-to-back birdies with a 12-foot putt on the seventh for a two-shot lead.

Two holes to close out the back nine changed everything. Amen Corner swung the Masters in Watson’s favor for good.

Watson won for the second time this year, and his second major puts him at the top of the R yder Cup standings.

He was guided all week by a simple game plan of hitting fairways and greens, and he was calmed by knowing that regardless of how it turned out, he still had a green jacket. Now he has two of them.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: I read your Jan. 8 column about the warning signs of an abuser.

Would you use your influence to say that men are also victims of abuse?

My son was in a three-year relationship with a woman who scored 15 out of 15 on your list. We knew it was a toxic relationship, but he couldn’t see that.

The night he came to us for help, battered and bloody, I finally took a stand. It took six months to get her out of his life. My son was ashamed to be a battered man, and she had told him that men who call 911 go to jail. It kept him from calling.

Please, Abby, help to change that.

If you use this, please keep me anonymous. He thinks I’m an “interfering mom,” but at least he’s not being abused anymore. I love him and miss him terribly.

INTERFERING MOM DEAR MOM: I’m glad you wrote so I can emphasize that abusers can be members of both sexes, from every economic level and sexual orientation. I received a TON of mail about this: DEAR ABBY: Thank you for including both “he and she” in the warning signs of abusers. My second marriage was a sad and unhealthy rebound affair.

My ex was attractive, talented and host to multiple addictions — risky sexual encounters with men and women, cocaine, alcohol and marijuana. I became aware of her blackouts and outrageous behavior just before our wedding.

I finally left after two years to avoid committing a crime in response

COMICS

to her physical abuse, chronic infidelities, psychological cruelty and pathological intoxication. Please urge men to report their abusers, file charges and flee bad situations! I had no way of knowing what lay ahead for me back then.

Do you have advice for other men contemplating marriage to a pretty party girl? Today I’m happily married to a deeply beautiful and noble woman, and grateful to have found her.

SET FREE IN NORTH CAROLINA DEAR SET FREE: I think you’ve stated it well. All I can add is that men who suffer physical abuse at the hands of a partner should go to an emergency room for treatment so their injuries can be documented, then file a formal complaint and end the relationship.

DEAR ABBY: Gay people need to read those warning signs because abusers abound in the gay community, too. I have gay and lesbian friends who were involved with abusers. Gay and

The Wizard of Id

lesbian centers offer counseling for this. LGBT people face the same problems as straights do.

MIKE IN DAYTONA

Family Circus

DEAR ABBY: I spent four years in a relationship before I realized I was being abused.

My lady friend pushed for a lifelong commitment within a month of our meeting, was jealous and controlling, shut my friends out, cursed and hit me on more than one occasion and, when I protested, she’d say she was “just trying to get my attention,” or “I only got what I deserved.” When I finally told her I was leaving, she threatened to kill me.

I have since learned that lots of men suffer psychological damage and physical danger from an abusive spouse or partner. Please inform your male readers they can get help from a skilled therapist or counselor by calling the Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men and Women at 8887HELPLINE (888-743-5754) in the U.S. and Canada. The website is DAHMW.org.

Dear Readers: Recently, we asked you to send in your hints on all the ways you reuse those small, brown, plastic PRESCRIPTION BOTTLES. Here are some of the many ways you reuse and recycle these bottles: * Rosanna D. in Kentucky wrote: “Use for travel storage of used diabetic fingerstick pins and test strips. Once home, seal the bottle for trash disposal.” * Mary G., via email, said: “After collecting and drying seeds from my garden, I store them in empty prescription bottles. Just be sure the seeds are completely dry, or they will mildew.” * Charlotte F., via email, said: “As a Cub Scout den leader, I taught my Scouts to use empty prescription bottles to keep matches dry. In a separate bottle, store tinder (cotton fibers and other dry plant material) for kindling fires (under strict supervision only, of course).” * Marty B. in Arkansas wrote: “My hunting buddies and I use these bottles to store cotton balls saturated with deer scent. Take the lid off and place on the ground.

When finished hunting, put the lid back on.”

Dear Heloise: Do you have a hint on how to clean an LED screen?

Julie M., via email Yes, and here is the Heloise information: Wipe the screen gently with a microfiber cloth. There are cleaners made specifically for these screens, but you do not want to use any harsh liquid cleaners. A little splash of tap water on the cloth will help if the screen is really dirty.

Dear Heloise: Our daughter and her family travel a lot with our grandson’s wakeboarding team. She is like everyone else who hates to have their loaf of bread squashed, so by accident she found a way to keep it intact.

After emptying a 12-pack of canned drinks, she decided to try to see if her bread would fit at the end of the drink box, and it did!

Now, wherever we go, we use this idea to keep our bread from getting mashed.

Mary S. in Louisiana Dear Heloise: If you put a microfiber cloth in your clothes dryer with every load, it will pick up tissues left in a pocket. The microfiber cloth will come out of the dryer with the entire tissue on it. I keep a microfiber cloth on top of my dryer just for this purpose. It picks up threads as well.
