Troubles threatening Obama’s 2nd term WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama seemed to lose control of his second-ter m agenda even before he was sworn in, when a school massacre led him to lift gun control to the fore. Now, as he tries to pivot from a stinging defeat on that issue and push forward on others, the president finds himself rocked by multiple controversies that are demoralizing his allies, emboldening his political foes and posing huge distractions for all.

It’s unclear how long he will be dogged by inquiries into last year’s deadly attack in Libya, the IRS targeting of tea party groups and now the seizure of Associated Press phone records in a leak investiga-

tion. But if nothing else, these episodes give new confidence and swagger to Republicans who were discouraged by Obama’s reelection and their inability to block tax hikes as part of the Jan. 1 “fiscal cliff” deal.

Taken together, these matters will make it harder for the administration to focus on its priorities racking up a few more accomplishments before next year’s national elections.

“It’s a torrential downpour, and it’s happening at the worst possible time, because the window is closing” on opportunities to accomplish things before the 2014 campaigns, said Matt Bennett, who worked in the Clinton White House.

From here on, he said, “it’s going to be very, very difficult.”

So far, there’s no evidence that Obama knew about — let alone was involved in — the government actions in question.

But a president usually is held accountable for his administration’s actions, and Republicans now have material to fuel accusations and congressional hearings that they hope will embarrass him, erode his credibility and bolster their argument that his government is overreaching. Even some of his Democratic allies are publicly expressing dismay at the AP phone records seizure.

Bright, lime-green shirts swarmed about the Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell campus Tuesday for the 21st annual Super Day, an

event held for the Roswell Independent School District’s gifted elementary school students from kindergarten all the way through fifth grade to allow them to experience hands-on activities that could be potential future careers.

According to the event coordinator and gifted teacher at Berrendo Elementary, Nola Miller, there were two key purposes for Super Day: career education and the students discovering new things that interest them in order to fill their free

RISD submitted a plan last year that did not initially receive funding, PED Secretary Hanna Skandera said, but the PED saved more than $2 million through the program and became able to approve funding.

“It’s just a huge win for kids and for Roswell,” she said.

“New Mexico Reads to Lead” offers reading assessments and intervention for students from kindergarten through the third grade, she said, in an ef fort to identify struggling readers and provide resources that

will help them know how to read in time for fourth grade.

“We know if a student can’t read by the end of third grade, they’re four times more likely to drop out,” Skandera said.

Last year, a state assessment found about half of third-grade students are not reading on grade level, she said, and a national assessment found 80 percent of fourth-graders not reading at grade level.

Justice investigating IRS targeting of tea party

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department is investigating the Internal Revenue Service for targeting tea party groups for extra scrutiny when they applied for tax exempt status, Attorney General Eric Holder said Tuesday, widening a probe that includes investigations by three committees in Congress.

Ineffective management at the IRS allowed agents to improperly target tea party groups for more than 18 months, concluded one investigation, by the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. The inspector general’s report, released Tuesday, lays much of the blame on IRS supervisors in Washington who oversaw a group of specialists in Cincinnati who screened applicaSee IRS, Page A6

Shelters struggle after new ordinance passes Help from the govt: not just for big biz JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

Roswell’s new pet policy that puts several costly restrictions on dog and cat owners has flooded one local shelter, forcing it to seek out help from partnering groups from Albuquerque to Colorado Springs.

The Roswell Humane Society continues to overpopulate its space with surrendered puppies, dogs and cats. The shelter held 76 dogs and 23 cats Tuesday afternoon. The maximum it can shelter is 75 dogs and 24 cats.

“It’s very overwhelming,” said kennel worker Krystle Smith.

The “no kill” shelter was created to take in homeless and unwanted pets, and to assist with animal control by keeping adoptable pets for a longer time, Smith said.

But when residents show up with as many as 15 puppies at a time, the system is overrun.

“We just don’t have room to take in that amount on a daily basis,” Smith said.

The new ordinance that places fees, fines or limits on most everything, including fixing, breeding and pet limits, has prompted several owners to surrender animals instead of paying to have them spayed or neutered.

The Animal Humane Society of New Mexico in Albuquerque has taken 130 of Roswell’s sheltered dogs since February, said mar-

keting director Dawn Glass.

“We like collaborating with Roswell Humane Society,” Glass said.

The Albuquerque facility is also a “no kill” shelter with the state’s highest adoption rate at 90 percent.

A program called “Project Fetch” allows the shelter to transfer pets from across New Mexico to Albuquerque where it adopts pets out to the larger population, Glass said.

“Hopefully people will be comforted by the fact that we have transferred in many of those pets,” Glass said.

Interestingly, Roswell’s shelter is unusual because many of the pets it receives and later transfers to Albuquerque are “designer” small breeds that are attractive to new owners.

“It’s interesting when we are transferring from other shelters, we typically get mixed breeds, but from Roswell we get an abundance of smaller, highly adoptable dogs.”

Glass expects many owners may have surrendered puppies from puppy mills in the region or have purchased the designer dogs and did not have them spayed or neutered.

The private, nonprofit shelter typically takes in 1,000 animals from around the state each year. For more information, visit animalhumane.nm.org.

At the Roswell Humane Society at 703 E. McGaffey St., an adoption can cost

$50 for a dog, plus the price to spay or neuter the animal at a local veterinarian, though the shelter does provide $100 coupons to qualifying low-income owners, Smith said.

The new ordinance calls for no more than five dogs or cats per household over the age of three months without a valid breeder permit, or a multiple dog or cat permit, for instance. Pet owners applying for a breeder permit first must get a business license.

Also each household must get a litter permit and each female dog or cat can only have one litter per year, with no more than two litters in each house per year.

Owners face fines if found in violation of these new rules.

Smith said owners may face issues with the price of complying with the new ordinance, but it may be other issues owners face.

“Sometimes it is price, or it’s just pure laziness,” Smith said. “I don’t think the ordinance is the problem. At first, a lot of owners surrender and release. It will be better in the future. We just have to take the first step to make things better.

It’s going to be hard at first.”

Joseph Pacheco, supervisor at the Roswell Animal Shelter, said the city-owned facility hasn’t seen a big difference since the ordinance took affect April 27.

No animals were surrendered and no citations have

been issued, but many warnings were drafted in the past few weeks, he said.

“It’s so fresh, it’s so new, we’re still getting calls from people (who) don’t know of the changes,” Pacheco said.

“We’re giving them a chance to correct their problems.”

The city shelter, also on East McGaffey near the Humane Society, has seen its usual upswing in activity for the spring season.

“With early spring and summer, we get swamped at this time anyway,” Pacheco said.

The city shelter does use euthanasia if an animal isn’t adopted after seven days.

It does get some two boxes a day of puppies or kittens some days, Pacheco said, but that’s typical for the time of year.

The shelter is not full at this time, with 70 dogs in general population kennels, 18 in the puppy room, 34 in the cat room and 26 in the feral cat room, Pacheco estimated.

“We’ve already given out a few multiple-animal permits, but not like a really dramatic change,” he said. “Probably in the next one to two years we will see an increase in putting dogs down. Right now, people don’t even know there’s been changes.”

At the city shelter, adoptions cost $40 for pets 6 months old or older, and owners must prepay their veterinarian to adopt, or the city will file paperwork in municipal court.

Representatives from the New Mexico Economic Development Department and New Mexico Finance Authority visited the Roswell Chamber of Commerce Tuesday to share information about a funding program that can benefit small businesses.

The state received more than $13 million in 2011 from the U.S. Department of Treasury, as part of the State Small Business Credit Initiative.

The NMFA administers the funds through the Collateral Support Loan Participation Program and works with banks to provide capital to eligible businesses for expansion or job creation and retention.

“We don’t want to compete with the bank ... we’re here to partner with the bank,” said Sanjiv Doreswamy, commercial lender with the NMFA. “It’s a win-win situation for everyone all around.”

More than $8.5 million is available and funding amounts vary depending on location and how the funds will be used. Antoinette Vigil, finance development team leader for the state’s Economic Development Department, said at most, $3 million is available for businesses in rural areas.

“We want the small-business owner to know the state is not only helping big industries, it’s also helping small businesses,” she said. “To have these funds available can have an impact on retaining the small business community in rural areas.”

The state has until the end of the year to deploy federal funds, she said, but hopes to keep the program going afterward.

For more information on the Collateral Support Loan Participation Program, call local Economic Development Division Community, Business and Rural Development Team Representative Mark Roper at 562-0327 or visit gonm.biz/Business_Financial_Assistance.aspx.

Obama advisers on Tuesday cast the trio of controversies as matters that flare up in an institution as complex as the U.S. government, and they questioned the impact of them. The one exception, advisers said, was the brewing scandal at the Internal Revenue Service, which they see as the issue most likely to strike a chord with Americans.

The IRS has apologized for what it calls “inappropriate” targeting of conservative political groups, including tea party affiliates, that were seeking tax-exempt status in recent years. A Treasury Department inspector general’s report released Tuesday concluded that ineffective management led to the targeting, and Attorney General Eric Holder said he had ordered a Justice Department investigation.

But he distanced himself from the decision to subpoena the AP records, saying he’d had no part in it, stepping aside because he had been interviewed in a government investigation into who provided information for a news story that disclosed details of a CIA operation in Yemen.

The press case sparked bipartisan outcry, with several GOP and Democratic officials questioning Holder’s department’s actions in the matter. Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said the attorney general should resign over the issue, adding: “Freedom of the press is an essential right in a free society.”

Connecticut Sens. Richard Blumenthal and Chris Murphy, both Democrats, called on the Justice Department to explain the records seizure. And Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the House’s second-ranking Democratic leader, said, “This is activity that should not have happened and must be checked from happening again.”

roughly 250 children, but also as a competition. The T-shirt design was the product of design contest winner Kamrynn Alvarez.

A fourth-grader at Missouri Avenue Elementary, Alvarez used an upside down pie symbol and elements from the periodic table to spell out SUPER DAY, and written beneath were the Roman numerals for 2013 and the phrase: “It’s ELEMENTary.”

Each student was given 10 or so classes to choose from and was then put into four of his or her top choices. The classes covered a variety of topics, including American sign language, digital photography, soccer and New Mexico wildlife. There was a nice “balance of classes,” said Del Norte Elementary gifted teacher Diana Meier.

Fifth-grader Julianne Martinez from Berrendo has been going to Super Day since first grade and has had the chance to experience many of the offered classes.

One of her favorites was zumba, but her interest in music had her attending a theatre class this year. She was also looking forward to a fingerprinting class later on in the day.

Also excited for the fingerprinting was Jodi Smith, a third-grader at Missouri Avenue.

As the press and IRS issues boiled over Tuesday, many conservative activists stayed focused on the attack last September in Benghazi, Libya, that killed four Americans, including Ambassador Christopher Stevens. Republicans have spent the past eight months accusing the Obama administration of ignoring security needs before the attack, and of revising subsequent “talking points” to play down the role of Islamic terrorists in the assault, which occurred at the height of Obama’s re-election campaign.

Hillary Rodham Clinton — the secretary of state at the time, and a possible presidential candidate in 2016 — is the target of many GOP accusations.

Despite the noisy controversies, White House advisers tamped down suggestions that Obama would make any sudden moves, such as firing top officials or shaking up his team. In a Tuesday night statement on the inspector general’s IRS report, Obama said he expected those responsible to be held “accountable” though he did not specify what that should entail.

On all three matters, the White House Tuesday steered blame to other administration agencies. The disputed Benghazi talking points, advisers said, were chiefly the CIA’s work. In discussing the IRS controversy, the White House has emphasized the agency’s independent status. And Obama’s spokesman has deflected all questions about AP phone records to the Justice Department, saying that the president and his aides didn’t know about the case until they read press reports Monday.

Asked why Obama couldn’t simply ask the attorney general about the Justice Department subpoenas, Carney said, “A great deal prevents the president from doing that. It would be wholly inappropriate for the president to involve himself in a criminal investigation that ... involves leaks of information from the administration.”

Museum of Space History in Alamogordo.

“If they’re having fun, they’re learning something,” Shinabery said. And Smith was definitely having fun.

“It was awesome!” she said of the rocket launching. “I love explosions. I’m a different kind of girl.”

The students and teachers alike agreed that the hands-on activities offered were a great change of pace from the “pencil and paper” work of the average, everyday classroom. And although note-taking is important, Super Day gave the students a chance to learn in a more interactive way.

The various classes were taught by volunteer presenters ranging from teachers and district members to museum employees, and even included a doctor who presented for a laparoscopic surgery class.

There were layers and layers of planning involved, requiring many volunteers and cooperation among teachers, but they all thought it was worth it in the end. The students can’t wait for Super Day. “They talk about it from the very beginning of school, asking ‘When is Super Day?’ and ‘What classes will there be?’”

Meier said.

The students got a chance to learn in new ways, discover careers they may not have even known existed and also socialize with others in the gifted program. The hope is that it would “ignite the desire to learn,” Miller said.

Is New Mexico the most corrupt state?

A4 Wednesday, May 15, 2013

OPINION

SANTA FE — Has anyone ever told you New Mexico is the most corrupt state in the nation? I’ve heard it for years, including from an FBI agent, who investigated our financial corruption mess.

Since I was a kid, I remember hearing that some powerful New Mexican, maybe Dennis Chavez, as saying that if you want to get a degree in political corruption, go to Chicago. If you want to get a master’s degree, go to Louisiana.

But if you want a doctorate, go to New Mexico.

If you ask people from the East Coast, they’ll probably tell you that New York and New Jersey are the most corrupt states. It just depends on where you’re from.

New Mexicans can point out that former Sen. Manny Aragon still is in federal prison in Colorado for getting kickbacks from the federal courthouse in Albuquerque and that several others pled to lesser offenses.

EDITORIAL

JAY MILLER

INSIDE THE CAPITOL

They also can tell you the two state treasurers went to prison recently for pocketing money. And then there is the State Investment Council and its bad deals that greatly enriched a few and made the rest of us put off retirement a few more years.

And then there is former Gov. Bill Richardson, who is reported to have received big campaign donations in exchange for the bad campaign advice. The pay-to-play investigations, suits, countersuits and grand jury proceedings are slowly working their way through the system but no one has gone to

Roswell Daily Record

jail and Richardson has remained untouched.

The allegations did force Richardson to withdraw his nomination as secretary of Commerce, however. So far, there has been much smoke but no fire. Richardson got himself into some hot water but contrast that with Illinois, which has had seven governors arrested for corruption since 1850. At least one is still in prison for attempting to sell the U.S. Senate seat vacated by President Barack Obama.

New Mexico began its statehood efforts in 1850 and it may have been the closest we got for the next 62 years. President Zachary Taylor wanted to make us a state but he died after a July 4 party.

New Mexico’s governors were appointed by presidents until 1912. A few of those may have landed in jail for falling under the influence of the Santa Fe Ring.

Instead the president removed

them from office and sent a replacement.

This lawlessness surely was among the reasons it took New Mexico so long to become a state.

It settled down some in the late 1800s when Edmund G. Ross became the first New Mexican to be appointed territorial governor.

Ross was a man of principle. He cast the deciding vote against the impeachment of Andrew Johnson in the mid-1860s despite knowing it would cost him re-election to the U.S. Senate. His story was one of John F. Kennedy’s profiles in courage.

So New Mexico got off to a bad start with its corruption image but studies compiled in recent years indicate that we aren’t doing so badly in spite of the evidence listed above.

I wrote a column several years ago that cited a study showing New Mexico ranking 19 in corruption among the 50 states and the

District of Columbia.

John Robertson of the Albuquerque Journal wrote a piece more recently citing a Daily Beast report putting New Mexico at the 45th worst state for public corruption.

An even more recent report lists New Mexico in 39th place in risk for corruption. It looks at what each state is doing to prevent the corruption. It includes factors such as public access to information, executive, legislative and judicial accountability, lobbying disclosure and ethics enforcement agencies.

We did not do well at all but some states must be even worse.

Gov. Susana Martinez tried to fix some of these areas but her House Bill 13 didn’t make it out of its first committee this year.

Ways to appreciate teachers

“The art of teaching is the art of assisting discovery.” — Mark Van Doren, poet, professor “The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates.

The great teacher inspires.” — William Arthur Ward, author Teaching often winds up in that large container of things loosely identified by society as “thankless jobs.”

Oddly enough, it’s a designation often applied to tasks that constitute the backbone of our communities — teaching, law enforcement, fire protection and rescuers — those whose daily contributions are too vast to simply ignore or overlook.

Yet, it happens. And that’s a shame.

Because the truth should be far removed from this rather casual throwaway line — “thankless jobs.”

That’s why we pause today to note the importance of teachers to our past, present and most especially our future. The first week in May is National Teacher Appreciation Week, which includes National Teacher Day. National Teacher Day was marked for the first time in 1953 and was held in March. In 1985, the day to honor teachers was moved to the Tuesday of the first full week in May. In one way or another, we should say thanks to the teachers who mold the young minds of our nation — sparking the urge for knowledge and, well, discovery, each and every day.

According to the PTA, there are more than 3.2 million people teaching in public schools across the nation in grades kindergarten to 12.

Many of them make sacrifices to be part of a profession that for the truly gifted instructor is an avocation. They know going in, for example, that teachers make low-to-moderate pay.

Teachers’ salaries still lag behind other occupations requiring a college degree. And teachers take a lot of work home each night or are required to return to school for myriad extracurricular activities.

Teachers must be communicators, leaders, nurturers, accountants, readers, writers, mathematicians, historians, scientists and disciplinarians. They deal with everything from bathroom disasters to skinned knees, fragile egos and the inability to comprehend fractions.

So, what can be done by means of public support? Well, a good place to start might be saying “thanks” to a teacher when meeting one. Or folks could reach out to a former teacher who made a difference in their lives.

But those are in-the-moment gestures. Here are some more long-term suggestions.

— Let education and political officials know how important teachers are. Give them ideas for rewarding great classroom performance.

— Get involved in the PTA. — Visit a local school to find out what you can do to show your appreciation.

— Volunteer to help the schools your children attend.

— Write letters and cards of appreciation to your students’ teachers and ask how you can support them throughout the year.

Really, that’s probably what our teachers want most — a little support and two simple words.

Thank you.

Benghazi, IRS: Son of Watergate?

In his defense of President Obama, Press Secretary Jay Carney is beginning to sound a lot like Ronald Zeigler, Richard Nixon’s spokesman.

Carney only has to use the word “inoperative,” as Ziegler did when incriminating evidence surfaced that proved his previous statements untrue.

Following what appears to be a cover-up in the Benghazi attack, the Washington Post has obtained documents from an audit conducted by the IRS’s inspector general that indicate the agency targeted for special scrutiny conserva-

tive groups with “tea party” and “patriot” in their names, as well as “nonprofit groups that criticized the government and sought to educate Americans about the U.S. Constitution.”

IRS of ficial Lois Ler ner described the targeting efforts

as “absolutely inappropriate,” but said IRS actions were not driven by partisanship. How, then, would she explain why no groups with “progressive” in their titles were similarly targeted? Car ney labeled Lerner an “appointee from the previous administration.” In other words: Bush’s mistake, not Obama’s.

The Post’s editorial board writes, “A bedrock principle of U.S. democracy is that the coercive powers of government are never used for partisan purpose.” The board called for a full accounting. I doubt we’ll get it. Take Benghazi.

ABC News first reported that the now famous Benghazi “talking points” used by U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice on five Sunday mor ning news shows were revised 12 times, deleting references to “the alQaida-affiliated group Ansar al-Sharia (and) CIA warnings about terrorist threats in Benghazi in the months preceding the attack.”

Carney said Ambassador Rice’s initial claim — that the attack grew out of protests over a video that insulted Islam — was based on what

DEAR DOCTOR K: Today at the playground my toddler bit another child. How can I make sure she doesn’t do this again?

DEAR READER: Lots of toddlers between 1 and 3 years go through biting and/or hitting stages. Children at these ages cannot yet express in words their feelings, so they may bite or hit parents, children or caregivers to get attention or to express frustration. These young children also may bite just to see what kind of reaction it provokes.

Toddlers will try any behavior to achieve a goal — until they learn that the behavior is unacceptable. If we didn’t know it was unacceptable, we adults would probably revert to behaving like toddlers. (In

fact, no surprise, we sometimes do.) And kids who know a behavior is unacceptable still will do it when the conditions are right.

A friend’s 5-year-old daughter was alone in the living room bouncing a ball. The ball knocked over a vase. When her mother heard the crash, she came into the room, saw what had happened and said to her

daughter: “You know you’re not supposed to bounce a ball inside the house! Why did you do that?” Her daughter replied, “’Cause you weren’t looking, Mom.” Back to the biting: The reasons for this aggressive behavior may be understandable, but the behavior itself is never acceptable. Biting and hitting hurt, and children need to learn more appropriate ways to express themselves.

My pediatrician colleagues here at Harvard Medical School tell me that when your child bites or hits, it is very important to make a swift, direct response. Tell your daughter what she should not do, why she should not do it, and what the consequences

will be if she does it again.

State firmly and immediately: “No! Do not bite! Biting hurts!

If you do it again, no TV for you tonight!” Keep your words simple and short. Children this age don’t have the attention span or developmental ability to understand long explanations.

After responding to your child’s misbehavior, try to figure out why she acted this way. If she is biting or hitting to get attention, discourage this behavior by making extra efforts to praise her when she behaves appropriately. If your child has kicked or bitten another child, pay special attention to the victim. Your See DR. K, Page A5

Another plea for local VA medical care LULAC to meet Roswell Daily Record

This week, we have another report illustrating the problem local veterans are having with obtaining medical care at a distance of 6 hours or more, round trip, to the Albuquerque VA Medical Center. Some people have said, “why keep repeating the same stories?” First of all, each story is a brand-new, different story than all previous. Second, if some people are irritated at hearing this over and over, please consider what the veterans who have to live it on a daily basis, over and over, are going through.

A few weeks ago, Larry L. was driving vets from Roswell/Artesia to the Albuquerque VA Medical Center (AVAMC) on his weekly Southeast New Mexico Veterans Transportation Service trip (you know, our totally volunteer, we pay for it service, because the VA refuses us local medical care).

Before reaching the AVAMC, he was having extreme abdominal pains himself. Fortunately, he had an appointment in the internal medicine clinic that morning, so he let his fellow vets off, parked the van and went straight to the clinic. Unfortunately, Larry committed the cardinal sin of being 10 minutes late. That should teach him to care about his fellow veterans who are required to drive 6 plus hours round trip for medical care. The clinic administrative staff informed Larry that since he was grossly late (my words) (10 minutes), he would have to reschedule his appointment. He explained his pain and that he had a van full of veterans to take back to Roswell late in the afternoon, but the “clinic” explained he would have to make another appointment anyway.

He then called the Artesia clinic for

help, as his primary care physician was there (even though he has to drive 6 plus hours to Albuquerque for emergency care or urgent care). The Artesia clinic said he should go immediately to the VA emergency room (fortunately, he had already made the 6 plus hour drive to the AVAMC). The VA emergency room performed several tests (including EKG), but found nothing wrong (even though Larry’s pain was getting worse).

So, the VA found nothing wrong, he couldn’t get an appointment at the Albuquerque clinic for 2 weeks, he had a van load of veterans to return to Roswell, so he decided returning home was his only option. When reaching Roswell, he returned the van and vets, and immediately went to the Loveless emergency room, where they found his blood pressure abnormally high, his blood sugar was over 200 and several other vital signs were indicating “something was very wrong here.” He was immediately admitted to the hospital, and 5 days later released, after finding a dangerously acute blockage in his intestines, which was effectively eliminated and all systems brought back into stasis (I love those medical words, y’all).

I would love to say this was a

was known to U.S. intelligence at the time. But as last week’s testimony by three whistleblowers before the House Oversight Committee revealed, much more was known at the time.

Contributing to cover-up suspicions is the administration’s continued stonewalling when asked to provide information on Benghazi. CNN sources acknowledge that “An email discussion about talking points the Obama administration used to describe the deadly attack on the U.S. compound in Benghazi, Libya, show the White House and State Department were more involved than they first said...” The American people deserve the full story.

The latest, but probably not the last shocker, is a report in The Daily Caller about CBS News Correspondent Sharyl Attkisson, who has “steadily covered the Obama administration’s handling of the Benghazi terrorist attack in Libya,” reportedly frustrating CBS News executives who claim her unrelenting coverage is “bordering on advocacy” on the issue. Now, according to Politico, Attkisson can’t get some of her stories about Benghazi on the air. Oh, did I fail to mention that CBS News President David Rhodes is the brother of Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes? Coincidental?

Attkisson is reportedly in talks to leave the network. Is it because she chooses to behave like a real journalist instead of a cheerleader for Obama?

On Friday, Carney held a “secret briefing” on Benghazi for a select number of White House reporters, rais-

RANCH TOUR

The Lincoln County Historical Society is planning a group tour on Saturday to the historic Bar W Ranch near Carrizozo. Sterling Spencer, descendant of the first statehood New Mexico governor, will guide the group to noteworthy areas of the ranch.

The group will meet at 9 a.m. at the Carrizozo Heritage Museum, 103 12th St., Carrizozo, and will carpool together to the ranch.

Ranch tours are conducted by the Society from May-September annually by the Lincoln County Historical Society with reservations to each event strongly recommended. Participants are limited to 40 individuals. A $10 donation per participant is requested. Wear sturdy shoes as some walking over rough terrain may be necessary. Bring personal needs items, especially water, snacks, sunscreen, and hat.

4x4 wheel drive vehicles to share are desired. Signed release requested. Register at explorenm@yahoo.com.

For information on the Bar W Ranch, visit newmexicohistory.org/filedetails_ docs.php?fileID=460. See also: Carrizozo Street Fair Events, Labor Day weekend, 2012, “Round Up Time” at the ranch. http://carrizozostreetfair.org/cowboy-days/.

unique event, but unfortunately it is not. Our brother vets H. M., R. M., B. A., W. C., L.B. and A.? have all had similar encounters just recently.

Requiring medical care 6 plus hours away remains insanely stupid, and is continuing, since the decision makers (the VA, the politicians and Mr. President) don’t have to face that inhumane situation. We treat our pets and our (illegal) aliens with more compassion and better access to medical care!

Previously, I have made earnest challenges to our VA upper management “people,” our Congressional representatives (both Republicans and Democrats) and Roswell’s mayor. Very simply, make a binding mandate that each one of them (for a period of only 2 years) must drive to Albuquerque (if a local resident in Southeast New Mexico), or to Roswell (if an Albuquerque resident) for emergency room, urgent care, dental care, eye care and cardiac care. That’s what we veterans have had to do for the past 50 years (or more). The universal response from our leaders? Ha, Ha! Get serious! The consistent approach by those same people (supposedly acting in our best interest to resolve our medical care problem) is to be congenial, certainly not negative and “play nice.” That approach has had a 50year reoccurring outcome of absolute failure!

If we keep turning our cheeks, as our “decision-makers/advocates” keep telling us to do (which never works), the only result will be our faces falling off. Obviously, their “saving face” is infinitely more important. God bless.

ing the ire of reporters not in the room. Is this what the Obama administration calls transparency?

Rep. Frank Wolf (R-VA) has asked Speaker John Boehner to name a select committee to investigate the Benghazi attack with full subpoena powers that could place witnesses under oath. Boehner should. Meanwhile, House Oversight Subcommittee Chairman Charles Boustany (R-LA) has demanded the IRS turn over by Wednesday all communications containing the words “conservative,” “patriot” or “tea party.” And the IRS should.

Democrats now accuse Republicans of partisanship, claiming their motive is to damage Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential prospects. If she has nothing to hide, transparency should enhance, not harm, her chances.

We’ve learned more about Benghazi since her appearance before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in January and she should be asked to account for it.

In 1972, Republican partisans initially accused Democrats of wanting to destroy President Nixon, but most were forced to acknowledge his culpability in Watergate once the facts became known. One of the Articles of Impeachment of Nixon concerned his misuse of the IRS to undermine political enemies.

Journalists should stop protecting President Obama and Hillary Clinton and do their jobs, like Sharyl Attkisson. Congressional Republicans should press for all the facts. That’s their job.

child will learn that by misbehaving, her attempts to get your attention have backfired.

If she is biting to relieve teething pain, offer her something soft to chew on. If she is frustrated or angry, remove her from the situation. If she has started to talk, suggest words that she can use to express her feelings. If she is overstimulated, over -tired or hungry, address the specific need and try to anticipate it in the future.

If aggressive behaviors are properly addressed as soon as they occur, most children lear n quickly that this kind of behavior is unacceptable and stop. If your child is older than 3 years and is still hitting and/or biting, your pediatrician may recommend that she see a child psychiatrist.

IRS

tions for tax exempt status.

The report does not indicate that Washington initiated the targeting of conservative groups. But it does say a top supervisor in Washington did not adequately supervise agents in the field even after she learned the agents were acting improperly.

“The report’s findings are intolerable and inexcusable,” President Barack Obama said in a statement.

“The federal government must conduct itself in a way that’s worthy of the public’s trust, and that’s especially true for the IRS. The IRS must apply the law in a fair and impartial way, and its employees must act with utmost integrity. This report shows that some of its employees failed that test.”

Holder said he ordered the FBI to investigate Friday — the day the IRS publicly acknowledged that it had singled out conservative groups.

“Those (actions) were, I think, as everyone can agree, if not criminal, they were certainly outrageous and unacceptable,” Holder said. “But we are examining the facts to see if there were criminal violations.”

Three congressional committees already are investigating the IRS for

singling out tea party and other conservative groups during the 2010 congressional elections and the 2012 presidential election. But Holder’s announcement takes the matter to another level, if investigators are able to prove that laws were broken.

Holder said he wasn’t sure which laws may have been broken.

The agency started targeting groups with “Tea Party,” ‘’Patriots” or “9/12 Project” in their applications for tax exempt status in March 2010, the inspector general’s report said. By August 2010, it was part of the written criteria used to flag groups for additional scrutiny.

Lois Lerner, who heads the IRS division that oversees tax exempt organizations, had been briefed on the matter in June 2011. She ordered the initial tea party criteria to be scrapped but it later evolved to include groups that promoted the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

IRS agents were trying to determine whether the political activities of such groups disqualified them for tax-exempt status. These groups were claiming tax-exempt status as organizations promoting social welfare. Unlike other charitable groups, they can engage in political activity. But politics cannot be their primary mission.

It is up to the IRS to make the

determination.

But by using improper criteria, the IRS targeted some groups, even though there were no indications that they engaged in significant political activities, the report said.

Other non-tea party groups that had significant political activities were not screened, the report said.

“The criteria developed by the Determinations Unit gives the appearance that the IRS is not impartial in conducting its mission,” the report said.

In all, IRS agents identified 296 applications for additional, sometimes burdensome scrutiny. Ninetyone of them should not have been targeted because they did not indicate they were engaged in significant political activities, investigators concluded.

Of the groups that were not engaged in significant political activities, 17 were tea party, patriot or 9/12 groups, the report said.

The additional screening resulted in long delays as IRS agents asked intrusive, sometimes inappropriate questions, or merely let applications languish, the report said. Inappropriate questions included requests for lists of donors and the political affiliation of officers.

As of December, the delays averaged 574 days, which probably made donors reluctant to con-

Convicted Pa. abortion doctor gets sentence of life in prison

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — An abortion doctor convicted of killing three babies born alive at his rogue clinic dodged a possible death sentence on Tuesday in a hasty post-verdict deal with prosecutors.

Dr. Kermit Gosnell waived his right to appeal in exchange for a sentence of life without parole. Gosnell, 72, was convicted Monday of first-degree murder in a case that became a flashpoint in the nation’s abortion debate.

Former clinic employees testified that Gosnell routinely performed illegal abortions past Pennsylvania’s 24-week limit, that he delivered babies who were still moving, whimpering or breathing, and that he and his assistants dispatched the newborns by “snipping”

DOD may trim furlough days

WASHINGTON (AP) — After weeks of debate and number -crunching, the Defense Department announced plans Tuesday to furlough about 680,000 of its civilian employees for 11 days through the end of this fiscal year, allowing only limited exceptions for the military to avoid or reduce the unpaid days off.

Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel, in a memo to the department, called the decision “an unpleasant set of choices” between furloughing workers or cutting training and flight operations.

And during a town hall meeting with about 6,400 department personnel in Northern Virginia, Hagel was direct: “I tried everything. We did everything we could not to get to this day this way. But that’s it.

That’s where we are.”

Hagel said that the department will be evaluating the budget situation over time and will try to end the furloughs early if at all possible. But he and other officials also warned that while they will do all they can to avoid furloughs in the next fiscal year, they can’t promise it won’t happen.

The furlough notices are expected to begin going out May 28, and workers will have several days to respond or seek appeals.

The unpaid days off would begin no sooner than July 8, according to the memo.

Officials said the furloughs will save the department about $1.8 billion.

their spines, as he referred to it.

Prosecutors had been seeking the death penalty because Gosnell killed more than one person and his victims were especially vulnerable given their age. But Gosnell’s own advanced age had made it unlikely he would ever be executed before his appeals ran out.

Gosnell’s lawyer, Jack McMahon, said his client accepts the verdict and isn’t sorry he went to trial. “He wanted this case aired out in a courtroom and it got aired out in a courtroom in a fair way. And now he’s accepting what will happen.

He’s an intelligent guy,” said McMahon, who said Gosnell would now plead to federal drug charges that are still pending.

Gosnell has six children,

the youngest of them a teenager born to his third wife, who has also pleaded guilty in the case.

Gosnell was instead sentenced Tuesday to two life sentences for two of the infant deaths. He faces a mandatory third life term Wednesday in the third death, when he will also be formally sentenced in the overdose death of a patient and hundreds of lesser charges.

A 2011 grand jury investigation into Gosnell’s alleged prescription drug trafficking led to the gruesome findings about his abortion clinic. An FBI raid had turned up 47 aborted fetuses stored in clinic freezers, jars of tiny severed feet, bloodstained furniture and dirty medical instruments, along with cats roaming the premises.

Robert Chewning

Memorial services are scheduled for 2 p.m., Saturday, May 18, 2013, at the First United Methodist Church for Robert L ynn “Bob” Chewning, age 96, of Roswell, who passed away May 11, 2013. Dr. Douglas Mills and Rev. Jim Bignell will officiate.

Bob was born Nov. 16, 1916, to a pioneering family that helped originally settle the Pecos Valley. He was born and raised on a small family far m three miles east of Roswell on the Berrendo River. His parents, Henry and Sally Dunnahoo Chewning, instilled in him his love of family and friends, sense of community, love of music and nature and a strong work ethic.

Bob attended school in Roswell and while growing up worked on the family farm and for his brother at Clardy Milk. He went to work for JC Penney’s in the late ’30s. He married his wife Louise Jones on Sept.

6, 1940, and soon thereafter joined the 8th Air Force and was stationed in England during World War II. Upon his return from the war, he retur ned to work at JC Penney’s and later worked for Everybody’s Department Store.

In the late ’40s he partnered with Raymond Richmond and they for med “Richmond and Chewning” and together they operated the shoe department in Knadle’s Department Store at the corner of Third and Main streets. In the early ’60s, they moved their shoe business to the Broadmoor Shopping Center. During this time, Bob became very involved in the community,

OBITUARIES being an active member in Sertoma Club, Elks Club, Southeast New Mexico Fair Board and the Roswell school board. Richmond and Chewning opened their second store in the Monterrey Shopping Center on the same day it was announced that Walker Air Force Base was closing in the mid-’60s.

After Mr. Richmond died, Chewning Footwear moved to one location at the corner of McGaffey and Main streets and later built a new store at 301 W. McGaffey St. Bob and the Chewning Footwear “family” met the footwear needs for residents of the Pecos Valley and beyond for more than 60 years. Bob’s love of people and genuine interest in improving the quality of life of those around him could be seen in every aspect of his life. Through the years, he supported countless youth organizations and events, as well as a multitude of other worthwhile causes. His first wife, Louise, preceded him in death and he married Lorraine Cavanaugh in 1993, who passed away in 2010.

Bob is survived by his proud and loving family, MaryLou Davis and husband Jack of Scottsdale, Ariz.; Susan Siepel and husband Norm of Carlsbad; three grandchildren, Brian Davis of Portland, Ore.; Dr. Joshua Siepel and his wife Shelaine of Brighton, England and Jennifer Cassidy and husband Kevin of Houston. He has one greatgranddaughter, Astarte Davis of Portland, Ore. His extended family includes nieces and nephews, Lynda, Tim, Mike and Steve Whalen, Charlie Chewning, Patricia Chewning Galbraith and all their families. In addition, he is survived by his Chewning Footwear family, stepchildren, T im and Belinda Cavanaugh, Cathy and Luther Jones, Colleen Blackwell, Dina Cavanaugh and their children, as well as the multitude who considered him their “second Dad.” The family wishes to thank the “Chewning Angels” who so lovingly cared for Bob over the past three years — Julie and Mike Adams, Mona Dunn,

JoAnn Juarez, Lupe Portillo, Karen Knecht and Julia Dillard. A very special thanks goes to Silvia Mein, his “adopted daughter,” who literally dedicated the past three years of her life to seeing that he was well cared for, comfortable and content.

Memorial donations can be made to The Historical Society and Foundation of Southeast New Mexico “Chewning Footwear Exhibit” at 200 N. Lea Ave. in Roswell, Roswell Sertoma Club’s, Bob Chewning Scholarship Fund, P.O. Box 202, Roswell, NM 88202.

Jorge Valenzuela

A gathering of friends will be on Thursday, May 16, 2013, at Ballard Funeral Home Chapel, at 3 p.m. for Jorge Alfonso Valenzuela, 71, of Roswell, who passed away on Friday, May 10, 2013, due to a long fight with Lewy’s Body Disease.

Jorge was cremated per his request. Jorge was born on Nov. 26, 1941, to Fred and Minnie Valenzuela (both deceased) of Carlsbad.

Mr. Valenzuela dedicated his life to his family, his love of education and sharing his knowledge of piano, music and entertainment, soccer coaching, playing and refereeing, mathematics, linguistics and teaching. After moving from Denver, Mr. Valenzuela took on the family-owned business, the Carlsbad Tortilla Factory of Carlsbad. Jorge was active in his hometown’s community and fervently supported many youth and

adult clubs and organizations by sharing his talents and teaching abilities. He was also a co-founder of the Carlsbad Youth Soccer Association along with his wife Carol.

Jorge’s achievements included degrees, travels, licensures, certifications and being a business owner, all with a loving and supportive wife and children. After Carlsbad, Jorge moved on to continue with his education and teaching in Las Cruces and El Paso, Texas. Eventually, Jorge taught in Roswell at Goddard High School. While there, other than playing piano for community events, he was the trumpet player for the Goddard High Jazz Band, taught trumpet for S.O.Y. Mariachi and played French hor n with the Roswell Community Band. After retirement, Mr. Valenzuela found another opportunity to bring happiness and joy — as a therapy dog handler.

Jorge encouraged a sense of accomplishment with his family, friends, mentors and students; always with a sense of humor. Blessed with so many gifts and talents, Jorge will probably be most remembered for the way we all felt when we spent time with him — always inspiring happiness, love, joy and laughter. He is survived by Carol, his wife of 49 years; his children, Frederick and his wife Brenda of Carlsbad, Ricardo of Roswell, Chochi and his wife Kelly of Seattle and Cassandra and her husband Frank of Huntsville, Ala.; his brothers and sisters, Ricardo, Sylvia, Frieda, Javier and Marcella (deceased) and also eight grandchildren and six great-grandchildren.

In lieu of flowers, the family has asked to make donations to the Lewy Body Dementia Association, 912 Killian Hill Road, SW, Lilburn, GA 30047.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Ballard Funeral Home and Crematory. An online registry can be accessed at ballardfuneralhome.com.

Holder says he had no role in AP subpoena Airlines collected record WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday defended the Justice Department’s secret examination of Associated Press phone records though he declared he had played no role in it, saying it was justified as part of an investigation into a grave national security leak.

The government’s wideranging information gathering from the news cooperative has created a bipartisan political headache for President Barack Obama, with prominent Republicans and Democrats on Capitol Hill expressing outrage, along with press freedom groups.

The government obtained the records from April and May of 2012 for more than 20 separate telephone lines assigned to AP and its journalists, including main offices. AP’s top executive called the action a massive and unprecedented intrusion into how news organizations do their work.

Federal officials have said investigators are trying to hunt down the sources of information for a May 7, 2012, AP story that disclosed details of a CIA operation in Yemen to stop an airliner bomb plot around the anniversary of the killing of Osama bin Laden.

The probe is being run out of the U.S. Attorney’s office in the District of Columbia.

Asked about it at a news conference on a separate topic, Holder said he removed himself from the leaked-information probe because he himself had been interviewed by FBI agents as part of the investigation. He said he wanted to ensure that the probe

was independently run and to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest. It was the Justice Department’s No. 2 official, Deputy Attorney General James Cole, who made the decision to seek news media phone records, the department said.

In February, CIA Director John Brennan provided a less-than-ominous description of the plot in testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee. He told the panel that “there was never a threat to the American public as we had said so publicly, because we had inside control of the plot and the device was never a threat to the American public.”

The bomb plot came to light after the White House had told the public it had “no credible information that terrorist organizations, including al-Qaida, are plotting attacks in the U.S. to coincide with the anniversary of bin Laden’s death.”

In a letter to AP on Tuesday, Cole said the Justice Department had adhered to its rules for subpoenas for the news media and hadn’t sought information about the content of calls. “The records have not been and will not be provided for use in any other investigations,” Cole wrote.

In response, AP President and CEO Gary Pruitt said the department’s response failed to justify the breadth of its subpoena, which included phone numbers in locations used by more than 100 journalists.

Condemnation of the government’s seizure of the AP phone records came from both political parties.

Attorney General Eric Holder is questioned about the Justice Department secretly obtaining two months of telephone records of reporters and editors for The Associated Press, during a news conference at the Justice Department in Washington, Tuesday.

Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus called on Holder to resign, saying he had “trampled on the First Amendment.”

Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said “the burden is always on the government when they go after private information, especially information regarding the press or its confidential sources.”

Two Senate Democrats from one of the states where the AP records were seized — Connecticut — also said it was important to address the reasons for an action that they said could have a chilling effect on freedom of the press.

“I am concerned that this investigative action may fail to meet the government’s high burden when invasion

of privacy and chilling effects on First Amendment rights are at risk,” said Richard Blumenthal, also a member of the Judiciary Committee. “The Department of Justice must be forthcoming with the facts as soon as possible.”

Sen. Chris Murphy, DConn., added: “It’s incumbent on the Justice Department to explain why they’ve seized telephone records from reporters and editors at The Associated Press so that their actions don’t have a chilling effect on the freedom of the press.”

At the White House, spokesman Jay Carney said the president had learned about the phone records only Monday, through news reports. Carney said it would be improper for Obama or the White House to weigh in.

NEW YORK (AP) — U.S. airlines collected more than $6 billion in baggage and reservation change fees from passengers last year — the highest amount since the fees became common five years ago.

Passengers shouldn’t expect a break anytime soon. Those fees — along with extra charges for boarding early or picking prime seats — have helped return the industry to profitability.

Airlines started charging for a first checked suitcase in 2008 and the fees have climbed since. Airlines typically charge $25 each way for the first checked bag, $35 for the second bag and then various extra amounts for overweight or oversized bags.

The nation’s 15 largest carriers collected a combined $3.5 billion in bag fees in 2012, up 3.8 percent from 2011, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. Fees for changing a reservation totaled $2.6 billion, up 7.3 percent.

The airlines took in $159.5 billion in revenue last year and had expenses of $153.6 billion, according to the government.

That 3.7 percent profit margin comes entirely from the baggage and change fees.

Delta Air Lines once again took in the most fees — $865.9 million from baggage alone — but it also carried more passengers than any other airline.

Delta collected $7.44 per passenger — about average for the industry. Low-cost carrier Spirit Airlines collected the most, an average $19.99 per passenger in baggage fees last year.

Honor Flight Network

The Greatest Generation Recognizing our veterans

Have you ever heard adults talk about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Greatest Generationâ&#x20AC;?? The words are used to describe Americans who were kids during the Great Depression in the 1920s and â&#x20AC;&#x2122;30s and young adults during World War II. These events were two of the most difficult times of the 20th century. The Greatest Generation probably includes your great-grandparents.

Many people in this generation served in the U.S. armed forces during World War II and other conflicts.

As these veterans have grown older, many have not had a chance to visit war memorials in Washington, D.C.

The Honor Flight Network, or HFN, was created to help Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military veterans visit Washington free of charge, to spend time at the different memorials constructed in their honor, and to thank them for their service to our nation. Volunteers, veteran groups and various companies have helped the organization bring tens of thousands of veterans to our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital.

May 18 is Armed Forces Day. To celebrate, The Mini Page spoke with a volunteer for HFN and a veteran who participated in an honor flight to learn more about the group and its mission.

For many years after World War II, veterans didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk much to other people about their war experiences.

But eventually people started to recognize the work and sacrifices of the men and women who now serve in our military, along with those of people who had served in the past.

Americans wanted a monument to honor WWII veterans while they were still alive. Plans for a monument were approved by the end of the 1990s.

Construction began in 2001, and in 2004, the National World War II Memorial was opened to the public.

It is located on the National Mall between the Washington Monument and the Lincoln Memorial.

Supersport: Adrian Beltre Height: 5-11 Birthdate: 4-7-79 Weight: 220 Hometown: Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic

Adrian Beltre arrived in Texas two years ago and quickly became a star in the Lone Star State in 2012.

The sharp-fielding third baseman won the Texas Rangers Player of the Year award and made his third All-Star team.

Beltre was born to play baseball. He signed a pro contract at age 15 and has competed for four big-league teams. He has also long supported charities in the U.S. and Dominican Republic. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no wonder heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big hit in Texas.

The Honor Flight Network began in 2005. At first, the trips were made with small groups on small airplanes. However, interest quickly grew, and many honor flight groups were created across the country. photos courtesy Badger Honor Flight

Memories and thanks

Visiting Veterans

photo courtesy National Park Service

Most veterans from World War II are well into their 80s and 90s now, and some use wheelchairs or have other health issues. It is estimated that between 700 and 1,000 U.S. WWII veterans die each day.

Because of this, many people want to thank them for their service to our country and learn about their experiences while there is still time.

This is true for veterans of other wars as well, including the Korean War and the Vietnam War. Veterans from these conflicts who have terminal, or deadly, health conditions also may be eligible for honor flights.

ARE THERE VETERANS IN YOUR FAMILY?

ROCKETS S TATE CHAMPS! Steven Willis claims individual state title with 72 KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

LAS CRUCES — In dramatic fashion on Tuesday, the Goddard boys golf team won the program’s 12th state title and third in four years.

The Rockets edged District 4-4A foe Artesia in a team playoff after the two schools posted matching 627s.

“It’s just always nice to win,” said Rocket coach Billy Carlyle. “Winning is just a lot more fun. Playing golf is fun, but winning is more fun. “(The kids) were extremely excited (going into the playoff). ... It was a lot of pressure because they knew it was coming down to that. ... I’m just happy that it came back to the south and it couldn’t have been sweeter that two southern teams had a playoff.”

In the playoff, Goddard posted four pars on the par-4 first hole and Artesia posted three pars and a bogey.

PREAKNESS Napravnik poised for homecoming in Preakness NOTEBOOK Shug: Derby win worth wait

BAL TIMORE (AP) — Shug McGaughey worked as a trainer for more than 30 years before finally saddling his first Kentucky Derby winner.

It was worth the wait.

Speaking at Pimlico Race Course, where he will seek to win the Preakness with Orb, the 62-year -old McGaughey said, “I always said I wish I won the Derby when I was young so I wouldn’t have to worry about it anymore. I’m not sure that’s true now. If I

BAL TIMORE (AP) — Rosie Napravnik’s motivation for winning the Preakness has little to do with making history.

With a victory aboard Mylute on Saturday, Napravnik would become the first female jockey to capture the middle jewel of the Triple Crown. More importantly to her, though, it would serve as a triumphant return to Pimlico Race Course, where she launched her outstanding career.

“You know what? It would be a great accomplishment, but that’s not the reason I want to win it, because no other woman has won it before,” Napravnik said in a telephone interview. “I just want to win it for my own sense of accomplishment and for all the people who have been rooting for me since the very beginning. It would be unbelievable to win the race, and I really believe we have a good shot.”

LOCAL SCHEDULE — WEDNESDAY, MAY 15 — • Las Vegas at Roswell, 7 p.m.

PECOS LEAGUE

Napravnik, 25, finished fifth in the Kentucky Derby on Mylute, the best performance ever by a female rider in the sport’s most esteemed event.

“The Derby was a great race,” she said. “I mean, he just did everything right. He was a little farther back than I wanted to be, but that’s just sort of his running style.

He ran an excellent race, made a huge move around the turn down the lane, basically followed (firstplace finisher) Orb the whole way.

It was the kind of race that he will really move forward from.”

Charles Woodson set to visit with Broncos

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Charles Woodson is set to visit with the Broncos on Wednesday for both sides to determine whether Denver is a good fit.

Aside from a meeting with the San Francisco 49ers after the Green Bay Packers released him in February, the 36year-old defensive back has drawn little interest as a free agent.

Denver could prove the perfect spot for Woodson, who’s hoping to play a 16th NFL season.

He would likely compete with Mike Adams and Quinton Carter at strong safety or serve as an extra defensive back on passing downs for the AFC powerhouse.

Broncos front-office boss John Elway told 5,000 season ticket-holders in a call last

week that he felt good about the safety position but didn’t close the door on adding another veteran at the position.

A season ticket holder asked Elway why safety wasn’t addressed in the draft, and Elway replied that Adams and Rahim Moore, whose big blunder led to Denver’s loss to Baltimore in the playoffs, were still the starters.

“Safety-wise, we feel pretty good,” Elway said. “I think everyone is going to have their difference of opinions on what they think we need, but we did the best we could with what we thought were the most important needs for us. But we’re always looking, and we’re not totally done with anything.

“We’re always looking to improve our team, and if there’s a safety or somebody we see out there that can help us, then I think we do something there.”

Woodson played the last seven seasons in Green Bay. He spent his first eight seasons in Oakland after the Raiders drafted him out of Michigan with the No. 4 overall pick. His 55 career interceptions are second among active players.

Woodson was the NFL Defensive Player of the Year in 2009 and the Defensive Rookie of the Year in 1998.

Woodson signed a five-year deal with the Packers before the 2010 season that was worth as much as $55 million but he missed half of the 2012 regular season because of a broken right collarbone.

Former Saints, Chargers RB Chuck Muncie dead at 60

METAIRIE, La. (AP) — Chuck Muncie, a Pro Bowl running back with both the New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers, has died at age 60, the NFL clubs and a family spokesman said Tuesday.

Muncie family spokesman Vintage Foster of AMF Media Group in San Ramon, Calif., said Muncie died at his Los Angeles-area home on Monday from heart failure.

Muncie was the Saints’ first-round pick, third overall, out of California in 1976. He played 4 1⁄2 seasons in New Orleans before being traded in 1980 to San Diego, where he finished his nine-year NFL career.

In 1979, Muncie became the first Saint to rush for 1,000 yards, finishing with 1,198 and 11 touchdowns, and his 1,506 total yards from scrimmage earned him the first of his three Pro Bowl selections.

The 6-foot-3 Muncie, who played at 227 pounds, and fellow Saints running back Tony Galbreath formed what then-coach Hank Stram dubbed the “Thunder and Lightning” combination in the New Orleans backfield.

Muncie’s photo is among those featured on the Saints’ Hall of Honor inside the club’s training facility.

Saints owner Tom Benson said in a written statement that the Saints were mourning Muncie’s “untimely passing,” adding, “Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and other loved ones at this difficult time.”

Muncie was traded by the Saints at midseason in 1980 to San Diego, where he played 51 games and was named to Pro Bowl rosters two more times, in 1981 and ‘82.

In 2009, the club recognized him as one of the 50 greatest Chargers of all time.

His accomplishments on the field came despite cocaine use, and in 1989, five years after his retirement from pro football, Muncie was sentenced to 18 months in prison for a cocaine distribution conviction.

Thereafter, however, he began sharing his life story with at-risk youth, highlighting his struggles with drug abuse. He created the Chuck Muncie Youth Foundation, the mission of which was to offer children mentoring, educational assistance and counseling.

“His work with at-risk youth, the Boys and Girls Clubs and his foundation were the things that really made him shine,” Muncie’s daughter, Danielle Ward, said in a written statement provided by Foster.

Muncie also became an active alumnus for Cal, where he is a member of the university’s athletic Hall of Fame. In 1975, he helped the Golden Bears win a share of the Pac-8 Trophy and was the Heisman Trophy runner-up.

In nine seasons, Muncie finished with 6,702 yards rushing, 2,323 yards receiving and 74 total touchdowns.

Bryce Hoskins sank a 20-footer for Goddard’s first par in the lead fivesome, and Kemp Kuykendall, Tom Snyder and Steven Willis each made pars in the second fivesome.

Willis’ short tap-in sealed the win for the Rockets.

“It was great. There’s no better way to go out than in a playoff my senior year against one of our rivals, Artesia,” Willis said. “I was so excited for the team. I wanted to win more for the team than I did for myself. I wanted that blue trophy.

“I just told my team (before the tournament), ‘We’re here to compete and we’re here to win. Let’s go get the job done.’ And that’s what we did.”

The tap-in on the playoff hole was the second critical par-saving putt Willis made on the day.

He also made a downhill 10footer on 18 to secure the individual state championship, becoming the sixth Rocket to win a boys state title.

He started the day tied for second after an opening-round 74 and shot a second-round 72 to win the title by a shot over Albuquerque Academy’s Ben Albin.

Willis opened his second round on the back nine with a birdie, but gave it back with a bogey on the par-5 12th. He bounced back with a birdie on 13, but again gave a shot back with a bogey on the par-5 15th.

After back-to-back pars, he bogeyed 18 to go out in 37.

On his second nine, he bogeyed two of his first three holes, moving to 3 over on the day.

Then the senior went on a tear.

He birdied Nos. 4, 5 and 7 to get back to even on the day and just missed a fourth birdie in five holes when his birdie putt slid past on No. 8.

On his final hole, he tried to

SPORTS

carry his drive around the corner on the dog-leg ninth, but was left with a bad lie in a fairway bunker.

He left his second just short of the green.

As he walked to the green, he was told that he needed a par to win the state title.

“I knew I had to make par and I know I love to compete,” he said about his mindset before hitting his chip shot. “I just told myself to get it up there somewhere around the hole and make a putt because I had faith in my putting (today).”

After the chip, he was left with a 10-footer down the hill for the win.

He took his time reading the putt and calmly knocked it in to seal an individual state title and force a playoff for the team championship.

“There were some nerves. I was a little nervous,” he said about the championship-clinching putt.

“I fought through it.

Wednesday, May 15, 2013 “Finally, I got the job done (is what went through my mind after I made it). I was so relieved, and excited, and happy, and just pumped.”

Willis joined Chris Schjetnan (2001), Greg Wakefield (1991), Ted Waldrip (1988), Bill Torpey (1974) and Lloyd Rubio (1969) as individual state titlists from Goddard.

Goddard also got sub-80 rounds from Bryce Mott and Tom Snyder on Day 2.

Mott, who shot 83 in the first round, shot a 74 on Tuesday and Tom Snyder shaved of f three shots from his Day 1 round with a 78 in the second round.

Mott was even through his first five holes, but made three bogeys over the next four holes to go out in 39. On his second nine, the front, he was 1 over through the first three.

Mott made three birdies over the next five, though, and got to 1 over on the day. He finished with a bogey on 9 to come in at 35.

B3

Snyder started shaky, but finished strong.

He was 4 over through his first four holes, but made back-toback birdies on 14 and 15 to kickstart a run down the stretch that saw him play the final 14 holes in 2 over.

He went out in 40 and came in at 38 for the Rockets.

Bryce Hoskins posted the final score for Goddard with an 89. He made three straight pars over the final three holes to stay in the 80s.

Kemp Kuykendall, who shot 76 on Day 1, carded a 97 in the second round for Goddard.

St. Pius X finished third on the team leaderboard with a 629 twoday aggregate. Piedra Vista was fourth, Deming was fifth and Kirtland Central was sixth.

The 12 titles is the second most in state history, one behind leader Socorro, which won its 13th in 2006.

NBA playoffs: Pacers push Knicks to brink of elimination

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — George Hill scored 26 points and Paul George added 18 points and 14 rebounds Tuesday night, leading the Indiana Pacers to a 93-82 victory over the New York Knicks and a 3-1 lead in the second-round series.

Indiana needs one more win to reach the conference finals for the first time since 2004. Game 5 will be Thursday night at Madison

If there’s such a thing as home-track advantage, Napravnik will have it in the Preakness. Her first career win came at Pimlico in 2005, aboard her first-ever mount, Ringofdiamonds, just days after finishing her junior year of high school.

One year later, Napravnik swept the rider standings at all four meets at Pimlico.

And now she’s running in the Preakness, where she will become the third female rider to have a mount, joining Patti Cooksey (sixth aboard Tajawa in 1985) and Andrea Seefeldt (seventh with Looming in 1994).

“It’s always an advantage if you know a track well,” Napravnik said. “I won a lot of races at Pimlico and I like the track. I know the track like the back of my hand, and I

had won in ’89 with Easy Goer, I don’t know if I’d appreciate it as much as I did this past Saturday.”

McGaughey and his horse have attracted much attention this week, for good reason. Coming off his solid win at Churchill Downs on May 4, Orb is in position to become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978.

With a victory, McGaughey can add a Preakness win to his suddenly blossoming resume. The last time he was a participant in the middle jewel of the Triple Crown, Easy Goer lost to Sunday Silence by a nose in 1989.

“As soon as I got here, it all came back to me — where I needed to be, where I was going,” he said.

“I feel like I’m back on familiar ground, and I’m tickled to death to be here.”

McGaughey sent Orb to Baltimore from New York by van on Monday and was delighted to see his horse make a quick adjustment to his new surroundings.

“He had a lot of energy. I walked him a few tur ns and had to give him up,” McGaughey said Tuesday.

“So far, so good. I worried a little bit (Monday) coming down here. But I’m glad we got in here while it’s still good and quiet and got settled in. He had a good night

NBA scoring champ Carmelo Anthony fouled out with 24 points. J.R. Smith had 19 on another dreadful night for the Knicks.

The game followed a familiar patter n. New York’s shooting was of f, Indiana had a huge rebounding edge and the Knicks couldn’t challenge in the second half.

New York didn’t hang appreciate that fact.”

She can only hope that will be of use against Orb on Saturday.

“Whether we can win the race or not, it’s still to be seen. It’s going to be a tough race and Orb is definitely going to be tough to beat,” she said.

“Either way, I’d have to say it will be one of my proudest moments.”

That’s saying something, because Napravnik has accomplished much since trainer Dickie Smalls sent her out on her first mount on that memorable June afternoon in 2005.

Last year, Napravnik won 193 races. Along the way, she became only the second female rider in history to win a Breeders’ Cup race and the first woman in the 138-year history of the Kentucky Oaks to reach the winner’s circle.

Her career has provided her many rewards and more than a few broken

and a nice morning. Everything is good.”

—————— BAFFERT NEARS DECISION: It appears as if Hall of Fame trainer Bob Baffert will enter Govenor Charlie in the Preakness.

After the horse ran well over six furlongs on Monday at Churchill Downs, Baffert said Tuesday, “He came of his work really, really well.

We are prepared to go.”

Baffert is at home in California this week and has been receiving reports from Kentucky on the colt from his longtime assistant, Jimmy Barnes.

Govenor Charlie did not run in the Kentucky Derby because of a minor foot bruise that caused him to miss training time in April.

The injury no longer appears to be an issue.

“I’ve always been impressed with not only her riding skills, but her competitiveness,” said Org trainer Shug McGaughey, who has employed Napravnik in the past. “She wants to be a great jock, she’s very, very confident of herself, and when you’ve got her, you’ve got a great addition.”

It’s been eight years since her first ride at Pimlico, and Napravnik can’t wait for the next one.

“If I think about all the places I’ve been and the things I’ve done, wow, I’ve accomplished a lot,” she said. “But at the same time, it feels like it was just yesterday when I was galloping there when I was just 16.

—————— FIRST SINCE 1898?: The last time an AfricanAmerican jockey won the Preakness was in 1898, when Willie Simms reached the finish line aboard Sly Fox. Kevin Krigger has a chance to be the next, on Goldencents this Saturday.

“The media actually is paying more attention to it than I am because I really don’t have time to worry about that,” Krigger said.

“I’m focused here on getting Goldencents in the Preakness winner’s circle.”

Krigger will be the first African-American to ride in the Preakness since Wayne Bar nett, who finished eighth on Sparrowvon in 1985.

Spurs 109, Warriors 91

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Tony Parker had 25 points and 10 assists, and the San Antonio Spurs held the Golden State Warriors’ starting backcourt to 13 points for a 109-91 victory Tuesday night to take a 3-2 lead in the Western Conference semifinals.

Kawhi Leonard added 17 points, Danny Green scored 16 and Tim Duncan had 14 points and 11

rebounds for San Antonio.

Harrison Barnes scored 25 points, Jarrett Jack added 20 and Carl Landry 16 for Golden State. No other Warriors player had more than nine points.

The Spurs held Mark Jackson’s self-proclaimed “greatest shooting backcourt” in NBA history to 6for -22 shooting. Stephen Curry finished with nine points, going 1 for 7 on 3pointers, and Klay Thompson was held to four while not even attempting a 3.

Curry has not missed any time since turning his right ankle late in Game 3, but the injury seemed to limit his explosiveness.

Leonard stripped Curry and then outran him to the

Curry appeared to grimace when he attempted to push off to sprint for the loose ball.

The Spurs led for all but the opening 6 minutes of the game.

San Antonio went on a 12-2 run to take a 102-84 lead with 4 minutes remaining. The Warriors missed two shots and had two turnovers to facilitate the Spurs’ run.

San Antonio shot 72 percent in the first quarter, pounding the ball inside for layups and kick outs to open shooters in taking a 10-point lead.

FDA’s Office of Women’s Health and the GSA’s Federal Citizen Information Center have created the free Friends and Family Health Kit. It contains more than 20 publications that are quick to read, easy to understand, and feature health care and prevention tips for women and their families.

Abby, thank you for letting your readers know about the Friends and Family Health Kit, and for sharing advice we can all use to better care for ourselves and for one another.

MARSHA HENDERSON, FDA ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER FOR WOMEN’S HEALTH

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: When friends and family get together, the conversation often turns to the subject of health. They swap stories about the medications they may be taking and the lifestyle changes they’re making to improve their health. They look to each other for support and tips to get through the flu or a nasty case of food poisoning, and rely on each other’s experience to tackle challenges like quitting smoking, managing heart disease, diabetes, menopause or conquering insomnia.

To help your readers support their loved ones through these health issues and many more, the

DEAR MARSHA: Your letter is timely because we are in the middle of Women’s Health Week, which runs from May 12-18.

I’m always glad to receive your health kits because they are constantly being updated to reflect the latest information.

This year’s health kits cover subjects that include recognizing health scams, preventing food poisoning, managing your medications from pregnancy to menopause, participating in clinical trials (which can

be a lifesaver), controlling asthma, selecting a mammography facility, and staying safe with cosmetics and tattooing.

There is no charge for the Friends and Family Health Kits and they’re easy to order. Just send your name and address to Friends and Family Health Kit, Pueblo, CO 81009; go online to www.promotions.usa.gov/dearabby. html; or call: 888-8-PUEBLO (that’s 888-878-3256) weekdays, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Eastern time. The publications can also be read online in PDF format, or be downloaded to your computer and printed out. Print supplies are limited, so don’t wait to order them. ##### DEAR ABBY: I live in Alaska and have good friends I visit every summer on the East Coast. I have some acquaintances and former co-workers who live there, too. Many of them want me to visit when I come down. I have grown apart from these former friends and keep in touch only through occasional emails and Facebook.

Flying from Alaska to the East Coast is expensive and time-consuming. I really just want to rest and hang out with the friends I’ll be staying with. Even when I avoid posting pictures of my vacation on Facebook until after the trip, I get comments or emails about me not stopping by or letting them know I was in town.

What’s the polite way to tell these former co-workers and acquaintances that I don’t want to spend my vacation time with them? Or should I just get over it and devote some time to them as well?

TRYING TO BE POLITE IN ANCHORAGE

DEAR TRYING TO BE POLITE: If you have any desire to continue the relationships with your former co-workers and acquaintances, why not arrange to meet a group of them at an agreed-upon place one afternoon for a “reunion”? If you don’t, then either ignore their comments or respond to the emails by saying you needed to rest, which is the reason you didn’t socialize more during your vacation.

Dear Readers: The old saying that CARROTS are good for your eyes is true! They won’t make your vision better, but they can play an important role in your eye health.

Carrots, like other orange-colored produce (sweet potatoes, cantaloupe), are rich in beta carotene.

If your family isn’t fond of vegetables, try “sneaking” some good nutrients and vitamins into something sweet, like Heloise’s Carrot Cake: 1 cup sugar 3/4 cup salad oil 1 1/2 cups flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon salt 1 cup grated carrots 2 eggs 1/2 cup chopped nuts Mix sugar and oil. Slowly add sifted dry ingredients. Next, mix in carrots, then add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add nuts last, and blend.

Bake in a round cake tin at 375 F for 35 to 40 minutes. After the cake is cool, slice it horizontally to make two layers. Put filling (canned frosting) between the cut sides, and frost the remainder of the cake. Enjoy! For more recipes and money-saving hints, send $5 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (66 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Baking Soda, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 782795001.

The answer is yes and no, according to the experts. Technically, you can freeze them, but this supposedly gives only an additional 30day shelf life.

You also can keep them in the refrigerator, as I do. Wrap them securely in plastic wrap first, then put them into plastic bags to be sure no “refrigerator odors” seep into the bag.

US boom transforms global oil trade Stock market Wednesday, May 15, 2013

rises back into record territory

NEW YORK (AP) — The surge in oil production in the U.S. and Canada and shrinking oil consumption in the developed world is transforming the global oil market.

The threat of chronic oil shortages is all but gone, U.S. dependence on Middle Eastern oil will continue to dwindle, and oil will increasingly flow to the developing economies of Asia, according to a five-year outlook published Tuesday by the International Energy Agency.

The changes will have “significant consequences for the global economy and oil security,” the IEA says.

NEW YORK (AP) — The stock market marched back into record territory Tuesday as investors seized on the latest encouraging news about the economy.

This time, it was a report on the health of small businesses.

Small business owners were slightly more optimistic in April, according to a survey released by the National Federation of Independent Business before the stock market opened. That helped push the Russell 2000, an index of small-company stocks, up 1.3 percent, ahead of other major indexes.

“Small businesses are in many ways the backbone of the economy ... to see that index move up was a positive surprise,” said Quincy Krosby, market strategist for Prudential Financial. “Overall, the market wants to move higher and it’s hard to fight that.”

The Russell index is 16.1 percent higher since the start of the year, and is up more than the Standard & Poor’s 500 index, which includes larger, global companies. Small stocks are doing well partly because they are more focused on the U.S., which is recovering, and don’t get as much revenue from recessionplagued Europe as larger companies do.

The advance in small-company stocks is another sign of how optimistic investors have become. Smaller stocks are more risky than large ones, but also offer investors the prospect of greater returns in a rising market.

Another closely watched stock market indicator has also been on a tear: transportation stocks. The Dow Jones transportation average rose 1.9 percent Tuesday and is up 21.8 percent this year, far more than other major indexes. Investors often see these stocks as an indicator of where the economy is headed. When companies make and ship more goods, the thinking goes, truckers, airlines and railways do more business.

The market rose from the opening of trading and climbed steadily throughout the day. The Dow Jones industrial average rose 123.57 points, or 0.8 percent, to 15,215.25. The S&P 500 index rose 16.57 points, or 1 percent, to 1,650.34. Both closed at all-time highs after stalling on Monday.

The Dow has gained for 18 straight Tuesdays. The only day with a longer streak of consecutive gains is Wednesday, with 24 back in 1968, according to Schaeffer’s Investment Research.

May has been a strong month for the market. The S&P has risen eight of the past nine days, the Russell and Dow transportation average have risen seven.

The prospect of continued stimulus from the Federal Reserve has also supported the market’s run-up.

For stock investors, the U.S. economy is “not too hot, not too cold,” said Michael Sheldon, chief market strategist at RDM Financial. It’s weak enough that the Fed will continue its $85 billion-a-month economic stimulus program, but strong enough for companies to generate healthy earnings.

“There is a lot of momentum in the market right now,” Sheldon said. “It’s largely being fueled by the Federal Reserve and modest growth in the U.S.” The U.S. economy grew at an annual rate of 2.5 percent in the first quarter.

ABC adds 14 new shows for next season

NEW YORK (AP) — ABC is cutting its aging “Dancing With the Stars” back to two hours and one night next season, creating a slot for a new drama series based on the Marvel Comics world that’s aimed at expanding the network’s audience, its programming chief said Tuesday.

Condensing the celebrity dancing contest on Monday night “opens up Tuesday for a pretty aggressive play,” said Paul Lee, ABC Entertainment Group president, whose network became the third of the major broadcasters to announce its 2013-14 schedule. The network’s entire Tuesday lineup for the fall is made up of new series.

“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,” from hitmaker Joss Whedon of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “The Avengers” films, will help broaden the audience for ABC, which is the network leader among young adult women, Lee said. The comic-book based series presumably will attract some younger men to the network. “Dancing With the Stars” is big with older women.

The celebrity dancing contest, although still a ratings winner for ABC in its 16th season, has seen its overall audience decline and grow older, an issue for networks that get higher commercial ad rates for younger viewers.

Asked about how he felt putting “S.H.I.E.L.D.” on at 8 p.m. EDT Tuesday against TV’s top-rated drama, “NCIS” on CBS, Lee said the ABC drama will draw a different audience and has a built-in fan base from the

Marvel franchise.

During a Tuesday afternoon network presentation to advertisers that included clips of the new series, Whedon said that “what I loved about ‘The Avengers’ became ‘S.H.I.E.L.D.”’ The audience’s warmest response, including a standing ovation, was for Barbara Walters, 83, who announced this week that she planned to retire from television, including as co-host of ABC’s “The View.” ABC latenight host Jimmy Kimmel’s barbed jokes also went over big with the crowd.

He chided Madison Avenue for spending millions of ad dollars on a “network that rolled a 400pound comedian off a diving board,” a reference to the ABC reality show “Splash” and contestant Louis Anderson. Kimmel also took shots at the competition: “NBC is on a roll, aren’t they. ... No, not a roll. A spiral.”

Among ABC’s other new dramas are “Once Upon a T ime in Wonderland,” a spinoff from the fairy tale series “Once Upon a Time,” and the Steven Spielbergproduced “Lucky 7,” about a group of gas station employees who win the lottery.

Lee also touted the network’s new comedies, especially “Super Fun Night,” written by and starring “Bridesmaids” breakout star Rebel Wilson as a single young attorney, and “The Goldbergs,” about a geeky preteen growing up in the 1980s who puts his family’s antics on videotape.

ABC is introducing a total of 14 new shows next season, following other networks that also have hefty freshman programming

slates: Fox said Monday it’s adding 11 new shows and is making its largest financial investment ever, and NBC said it would introduce 17 new series.

ABC will take a less traditional approach to scheduling, Lee said, breaking some of its series into two sets of 12 episodes with a break between them to avoid airing repeats. The gap will be filled by limited-run shows, including dramas, he said.

His competitors also plan to make use of “event series,” the new label for the once popular genre known as the miniseries. Fox said this week its plans include a

limited-run return for “24” and the thriller “Wayward Pines” from filmmaker M. Night Shyamalan (”The Sixth Sense”).

Other new ABC dramas include “Betrayal,” about a photographer and her husband with political aspirations, with James Cromwell in the cast; “Killer Women,” a Texas Rangers drama focused on a female ranger; “Mind Games,” with Steve Zahn and Christian Slater as problem-solvers for hire; and “Resurrection,” starring Omar Epps, about a small town where the dead return to life.

The new comedies include

sitcom “Back in the Game,” about a single mom and her estranged dad, played by James Caan; the singles sitcom “Mixology” and “Trophy Wife,” starring Malin Akerman as a newlywed who gets a husband (Bradley and three Whitford) stepchildren.

Also on tap for next season are “The Quest,” a reality series from producers whose credits include “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Amazing Race,” and the special “Toy Story of Terror,” which puts the characters from “T oy Story” on a scary road trip.

Original cast members

Tom Hanks and Tim Allen are among the voice actors.

The network’s canceled series are “Body of Proof,” “Malibu Country” and “Happy Endings,” which Lee called a favorite but which failed to draw ratings.

The network is bringing back 10 current series including “Once Upon a T ime,” “Modern Family,” “Scandal,” “Grey’s Anato“Castle” and my,” “Nashville.” Moves are afoot for “Last Man Standing” and “The Neighbors,” which will air on Friday.

Jolie admired for bravery in mastectomy revelation NEW YORK (AP) — “I hope that other women can benefit from my experience,” Angelina Jolie wrote in a powerful op-ed article Tuesday, explaining her decision to go public with having her breasts removed to avoid cancer.

But amid the accolades for the film star’s courageous revelation, doctors and genetic counselors were careful to note that her medical situation — an inherited genetic mutation putting her at high risk of breast and ovarian cancer — was very specific, and that her course of action made sense for only a small category of women.

Still, they hailed her bravery and said that she would surely help increase awareness — and thus, perhaps, help save some lives.

“Having this conversation empowers us all,” said Rebecca Nagy, a genetic counselor who works frequently with women who test positive for a defective version of the BRCA1 gene, as Jolie did. “It’s wonderful what she’s done.”

In a stunning op-ed piece in the New York Times, Jolie, 37, began by speaking of her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand, who died of cancer at 56, before she was able to meet most of her grandchildren.

The actress revealed that beginning in February, she underwent three surgeries — which she succeeded in keeping secret from the public — in which her breasts were removed, and later replaced by implants.

“I wanted to write this to tell other women that the decision to have a mastectomy was not easy. But it is one I am very happy that I made,” Jolie wrote.

“My chances of developing breast cancer have dropped from 87 percent to under 5 percent. I can tell my children that they don’t need to fear they will lose me to breast cancer.”

The actress also hinted that she might, at some point, have her ovaries removed, saying that she had “started with the breasts” because her risk of breast cancer was higher than that for ovarian cancer. She did not say how long ago she was diagnosed with the faulty gene.

While admiring Jolie’s straightforwardness, cancer surgeons and others in the medical community were quick to point out that hereditary cases of breast cancer account for only about 5 percent to 7 percent of

all cases diagnosed each year.

And those connected to the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes are an even smaller group.

And so, women shouldn’t just run off and get tested for those genes, said Dr. Robert Shenk, medical director of the Breast Center at the University Hospitals Case Medical Center in Cleveland.

“My worry is that people will be inappropriately tested,” said Shenk. “Awareness is great, but people shouldn’t just run in off the street and get a test.”

Instead, he said, genetic counseling, including a close review of a patient’s family history, is crucial.

Nagy, the genetic counselor, who is also president of the National Society of Genetic Counselors, agreed.

“The clues are in the family history. Has there been cancer in multiple generations?” she said. “Are there clusters of cancers, like breast and ovarian, on the same side of the family? Has the cancer been diagnosed at an early age — under 50?”

If those factors exist, Nagy said, she conducts a thorough risk assessment with the patient. And if testing is warranted, there still needs to be some thought beforehand as to

what one might do with the information.

“It might not necessarily be surgery,” Nagy said. “It might be much more frequent screenings.

Surgery isn’t right for everyone.”

That’s the decision that Gabrielle Brett made — at least initially. Brett was only 23 when she tested positive for the BRCA1 gene. She had just met her future husband, James, a month earlier. She wanted to have a family, so she waited.

But at age 29, her husband said she shouldn’t wait any longer. She should have her breasts removed before they had kids, even though she wouldn’t be able to nurse them. She ultimately agreed. She had the surgery and then had two children.

Now 35, she is two weeks from her due date with her third.

Brett woke up in the middle of the night Tuesday, read about Jolie’s article on Facebook, and excitedly woke her husband. “It’s amazing to hear that someone so famous went through the same thing,” she said in a telephone interview. “It makes me realize we are all on the same journey.”

Brett, who lives in Shaker Heights, Ohio, also figures that Jolie went through some tough moments, however serene she

sounded in her article.

“I’m sure it wasn’t quite so simple,” she said. “There’s sadness, anger, fear. I did a lot of crying alone in the car. But once I had the surgery, I felt a huge weight come off of me. I was no longer worrying whether there was cancer growing inside me somewhere. I felt nothing but relief.”

And, she said, it was crucial that she was accompanied throughout her journey by “my own Brad Pitt” — her husband, who was there through every moment, as Jolie says partner Pitt was for her at the Pink Lotus Breast Center in southern California.

There is one part of the journey Brett has not tackled yet: removal of her ovaries. That, she said, will come a bit later, when she is 40.

Doctors stress that no one solution is right for everyone who tests positive. And even for those with a risky family history, it’s not necessarily always right to test right away, they say.

“You don’t necessarily want to test an 18-year-old, sending her into a panic at such a young age,” said Shenk. “You might consider that she’s unlikely to get cancer in her 20s. You would maybe test her later.”

Another potential downside to the testing: the cost, which can reach $3,000, though it’s usually covered by insurance and there are programs for women who can’t afford it.

And some women might simply not be prepared for the results, said Dr. Eric Winer, head of the breast program at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in Boston. “Once you get the information, you have to be able to deal with it,” he said.

If one does test positive, Winer stressed, it could be a reasonable solution to undergo intensive surveillance with MRI tests and mammograms. Or, some women choose to remove only their ovaries, which in premenopausal women seems to reduce the risk of breast cancer, too.

But in Jolie’s case, Winer said, it’s hard to argue with her choice of preventive surgery. “I tend to be a less-is-more doctor,” said Winer. “But I do think the choice she made is a rational, reasonable one.”

There is a risk, he noted, that with the actress’s celebrity power, people will see her choice and think it’s the only one. If they do get cancer, “most women are well-served by conservative surgery, as in a lumpectomy,” with chemotherapy and/or radiation, he said.

But any risk is outweighed by Jolie’s ability to promote awareness, Winer added. “The more people who ask their doctors about this, the better.”

Dr. Kristi Funk, founder of the Pink Lotus Center where Jolie was treated, agreed. “We hope that the awareness she is raising around the world will save countless lives,” Funk said.

Jolie’s most positive influence, some say, may be in the fact that such a glamorous woman has come forward — in great detail — to talk about how one can lose one’s breasts and still remain, well, a woman.

“I do not feel any less of a woman,” Jolie wrote in her article. “I feel empowered that I made a strong choice that in no way diminishes my femininity.”

That impressed Nagy, the genetic counselor. “For women, so much is tied to sexuality, to sensuality,” she said. “Many women feel defined by that. So for her to be such an icon and come out and say, ‘Look what I did’ — I’m hoping that prompts other women to have conversations, about their own options.”

Hedge fund boss Loeb lobbies for breakup of Sony

TOKYO (AP) — The U.S. hedge fund manager renowned for shaking up Yahoo Inc. has set his sights on Sony Corp., proposing that the Japanese electronics giant spin off up to 20 percent of its movie, TV and music division and use the money to strengthen its ailing device manufacturing unit. Sony rejected the plan, but analysts latched onto the idea as a way for Sony to unlock hidden value.

Sony’s U.S.-traded shares jumped $1.92, or 10.2 percent, to $20.81 in Tuesday afternoon trading.

In a May 14 letter to Sony President Kazuo Hirai, first published in The New York Times, Third Point LLC CEO Daniel Loeb suggests Sony take 15 to 20 percent of the entertainment unit public by offering current Sony shareholders the opportunity to buy shares in it.

Loeb said that would allow the Japanese maker of PlayStation game machines and Bravia TV sets to fund improvements to its battered electronics operations and provide existing shareholders with a way to own one of Sony’s most profitable businesses more directly.

Sony replied in a statement Tuesday that its entertainment business is not for sale, and stressed it is trying to strengthen both that division and its electronics operations.

“As president and CEO Kazuo Hirai has said repeatedly, the entertainment businesses are important contributors to Sony’s growth and are not for sale,” Sony said. “We look forward to continuing constructive dialogue with our shareholders as we pursue our strategy.”

Despite Sony’s rebuff, analysts hailed the idea.

Pivotal Research Group analyst Brian Wieser said that becoming a separate company would allow Sony’s entertainment division to grow and become more profitable. It would also focus investor attention on its assets, which would take on new value as a potential acquisition target for media companies like CBS Corp.

CBS spokesman Dana McClintock declined to comment on what he called “rumor and speculation.”

Besides distributing blockbuster movies like the James Bond hit “Skyfall,” Sony’s entertainment arm makes popular TV shows such as “Community” for NBC and “Breaking Bad” for AMC. Notable Sony Music artists include Beyonce, Adele, Bob Dylan and Kenny Chesney. Wieser said Sony operates 124 pay TV channels in more than 159 countries.

“Buried inside of a bigger company, Sony has not been able to highlight the valuable businesses,” Wieser wrote in a research note Tuesday.

Loeb’s letter said that over 40 percent of Sony’s enterprise value is tied up in its entertainment assets, but they are underperforming compared to their peers. If the division’s profitability were raised to the industry average, it would add 625 billion yen ($6.1 billion) to Sony’s market value, he said. With the rise in Sony’s stock Tuesday, the company has a market capitalization of about $21.1 billion.

Sony expanded into the entertainment business three decades ago as it grew into a global powerhouse. It acquired CBS Records in 1988 and Columbia Pictures in 1989.

But Tokyo-based Sony is often criticized for its failure to take advantage of having both electronics and entertainment under its wing.

Investors would like the

company to be more like Apple Inc., which has made iTunes and its App Store integral to the success of its iPods, iPhones and iPads.

Still, Sony’s stock is up 86 percent in 2013. Like other exporters, it has benefited from the Japanese government’s economic policies, which have weakened the yen and provided an instant boost to the earnings of Japanese companies on sales made abroad.

Sony has also attracted new investor attention recently after embarking on the sales of several assets. It sold its U.S. headquarters in New York for $1.1 billion in March, and a fraction of its interest in health-care data provider M3 to Deutsche Bank in February, a move that helped boost

the value of its remaining stake and generate a $1.3 billion one-time gain.

That sparked renewed speculation that the company is intent on reaping the value of its varied assets and perhaps spinning major divisions off.

“With the non-core assets that they sold, people speculated that they might do something more aggressive,” said analyst Daniel Ernst with Hudson Square Research.

Following four straight years of red ink, Sony reported a profit of 43 billion yen ($434 million) in the fiscal year that ended in March.

It had suffered a loss of 457 billion yen ($5.7 billion) the previous year, which was the worst in the compa-

ny’s nearly seven-decade history.

Sony’s electronics business has been ailing, particularly its TV division, which has lost money for nine straight years.

Sony fell behind in flat panel TVs, and has never been able to compete against Samsung Electronics Co. of South Korea in TVs as well as cheaper makers.

Outspoken investors like Loeb are still relatively rare in Japan. Major companies tend to have networks of shareholders such as banks and group companies.

Resistance to big change is strong.

Shareholders’ meetings, including those of Sony, tend to be boring affairs in which company agendas are

rarely challenged, except in proposals that are quickly defeated or in rambling speeches by shareholders seen more as a nuisance than a real influence on policy.

But change could be in store. Japan is seeing a surge in global investment interest because of its recent policies of super-easy money and an inflation target designed to wrest its economy out of the doldrums.

Loeb’s letter was also well timed. Sony’s corporate strategy meeting is set for May 22.

In his letter, Loeb pointed to the “Abenomics” monetary policies of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who took office last year, which have buoyed Tokyo stocks and

brought the yen down.

Loeb said Sony should seize on the opportunity provided by Abenomics to shore up its electronics business.

“Sony stands at the crossroads of compelling corporate opportunity and massive Japanese economic reform. Under Prime Minister Abe’s leadership, Japan can regain its position as one of the world’s pre-eminent economic powerhouses and manufacturing engines,” he said.

Loeb said in his letter that his fund owns 64 million Sony shares, which is about a 6.5 percent stake in Sony.

The 51-year-old billionaire is perhaps best known for instigating a massive shake-up at Yahoo Inc., using his 5.8 percent stake to gain seats on the board.

Loeb helped engineer the ouster of then-CEO Scott Thompson by revealing last May that Thompson did not have the computer science degree that was widely assumed. The ouster led to the eventual hiring of former Google Inc. executive Marissa Mayer as CEO last July. Since then, Yahoo shares have ralied about 70 percent.

Sony did not have the latest numbers on the fund’s holdings, but confirmed it is a major shareholder.

“Sony has stood for innovative engineering and consumer satisfaction for decades,” Loeb said. “Like many conglomerates we have invested in previously, Sony has two strong businesses facing different challenges side by side, each obscuring the other’s true worth.”
