Snyder maintains 12-vote lead in sheriff’s race
THURSDAY
www.rdrnews.com
16 provisional votes qualified in GOP primary STAFF REPORT
Results from the Tuesday primary for Chaves County sheriff still stand at a 12vote lead for Britt Snyder. The race for the county’s top law enforcement job see-sawed back and forth Tuesday night between Snyder, a 24-year veteran of the sheriff’s office, and Patrick Barncastle, an investigator for the Chaves County District Attorney’s Office. Not counted Tuesday night were the provisional
ballots, which are set aside because of voting irregularities and not initially counted on election night. Some could be considered valid, and therefore could change the final tallies. The county clerk’s office is responsible for verifying whether provisional ballots should be included. At the end of the workday Wednesday, the clerk’s office said there were 21 provisional votes that qualified, with 16 of those cast in the Republican primary. The clerk’s office could
not say how the votes were cast in the four-way sheriff’s primary. The clerk’s office said there also were two votes in lieu of absentee votes, which means those voters cast their votes at the polls instead of turning in their absentee ballots, and one military tally sheet vote to be added to the totals. The ballots will be canvassed at 9 a.m. Friday by the Chaves County Board of Commissioners at the County Administrative Center, 1 St. Mary’s Place.

Thousands of vets in state left without doctor ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Of ficials at a Veterans Affairs medical center in Albuquerque say as many as 3,000 patients were assigned to a doctor who didn’t actually see them, a New Mexico congresswoman said Wednesday.

Who says geeky science stuff isn’t fun? Sixty-eight elementary students in the Roswell area are participating this week in Camp Invention, a one-week educational camp sponsored by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. The camps are held across the country with the mission to inspire children to create and invent outside the box in a fun environment. The Roswell camp is being held at the St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church with the assistance of several local sponsors. On Wednesday, many kids dressed up as scientists by wearing white lab coats. In one classroom, children had to take a small electric car and “morph” it so that it could travel on land, sea and air. The cars also had to have characteristics of animals. From left, Reese Melton, 9; Klarisse Vasquez-Banda, 9; Reagan Battle, 10; and Max Lopez, 10.
The of ficials told U.S. Rep. Michelle Lujan Grisham, D-N.M., that the practice of putting patients without primary care doctors into a separate pool was part of an effort to balance demand and a shortage of doctors at a facility that handled nearly 660,000 outpatient visits last year.
They said the health of patients was monitored and those who needed urgent care were seen either in clinics, emergency rooms or squeezed onto the schedule of another doctor, but it
wasn’t immediately clear whether the practice put any veterans at risk. It also wasn’t clear how long they waited to be assigned to a doctor. Officials said the practice began in summer 2012 and lasted until January 2014, but they have not said what prompted the end of the program. congressional The staffers were told nearly two-thirds of patients at the Albuquerque VA medical center are seen within a 14-day window, but Lujan Grisham questioned the data given that VA officials weren’t initially forthcoming about the patient pool. The disclosure of the separate patient pool, which was managed though the

Habitat for Humanity selected as Rotary’s golf charity SUBMITTED
Roswell Habitat for Humanity has been named the primary beneficiary of the 2014 Rotary Desert Sun Classic Golf Tournament. The organization was selected after a review of more than 30 requests from local charities, many of which may also be funded if the tournament is as successful as in past years. Habitat for Humanity builds houses in partnership with low-income families in the Roswell area. The program requires the families receiving the houses to share in the actual labor efforts and enter into a mortgage when they move into their home. A major contribution from the Golf Tournament will defray building
costs and reduce the mortgage amounts for the next four houses built. “Most of our partners are single-parent families who either rent or live with relatives,” says Bob Williams, Habitat for Humanity treasurer. “Having a home of their own stabilizes their lives and builds our community.” Over the last 23 years, the Rotary Desert Sun Golf Classic has raised almost $650,000 for worthwhile causes in Chaves County —$42,000 last year alone. Following last year’s successful format change, the 2014 Rotary Desert Sun Golf Classic remains an amateur-friendly, Saturday-and-Sunday tournament featuring two-person teams and a mix of golf formats. Teams will compete for over $13,000 in cash and prizes and the
top finishers from each flight then compete for additional prizes in a ninehole shoot-out Sunday afternoon.
The tournament takes place July 19-20 at Roswell’s renamed Nancy Lopez Golf Course at Spring River. Entry fee is $250 per golfer and includes green fees, cart, gift card and social events. Field is limited to 60 teams.
The Rotary Desert Sun Golf Classic is presented annually by the Roswell Rotary Club, Pecos Valley Rotary Club and Sunrise Rotary Club. Major sponsor is Desert Sun Motors of Roswell, Travis Hicks executive manager. Contact golf professional Carlton Blewett for entry information on desertsungolfclassic.com.

the ongoing changes in healthcare in the United States, especially with regards to Obamacare,” Jones said. “Dr. Dalton has continued his education in post doctorate work with an emphasis in conservative primary care. I believe he is Board Certified in Diagnosis and Internal Medicine and is certified in Advance Practice.” The “Chiropractor of the Year” honor is an award that is given out once a year to one member of the association, Jones said. Nominations for the award are given to the NMCA executive director and then those names are voted on for the award. “This award reflects the respect Dr. Dalton’s colleagues have for him as a person and as a physician. Dr. Dalton well deserved this award,” Jones said. Dalton’s clinic, Pecos Valley Health and Wellness, of fers patients a holistic approach to health care. Besides the standard chiropractic care, the clinic also has a nurse practitioner, Loretta Sparkman, on staff. The clinic offers a variety of patient services, including Rolfing, massage therapy, IV vitamin therapy, hormone replacement therapy, and weight loss programs. Rolfing is provided by Dameron Midgette, of Santa Fe, who comes to Roswell twice a month, Dalton said. The clinic also has its own hyperbaric chamber, which is used in treatment of a number of illnesses. “People don’t usually come to us just for a back adjustment — now, they are also coming looking for advice on how to approach their health from a more holistic, alternative approach,” Dalton said. Originally from Albuquerque, Dalton himself became interested in chiropractic while in college after seeking treatment for a sore neck. “After that experience, I wanted to learn more about chiropractic,” Dalton said. As he prepared to attend chiropractic school, he worked as a Spanish teacher in Texas while he attended college to finish the prerequisite classes. “Once I completed my prerequisites, I went full time to chiropractic college,” he said. Dalton attended Parker University in Dallas to receive his D.C. degree. He has been a doctor for 18 years; for 15 of those, he has been located here in Roswell. He is also very active in the community. Dalton serves as second vice president of the Roswell Chamber of Commerce, as vice president of Alianza of New Mexico, and he serves on the Roswell Symphony Orchestra Board.

tage. Martinez is a rising political star as the nation’s first female Hispanic governor. The normally low-key King blistered Martinez for failing to deliver on a 2010 campaign promise to bring “bold change” to New Mexico. The state is one of the few nationally to have lost jobs in the past year, he pointed out. A social advocacy group has ranked New Mexico the worst in the country for child well-being. “If you guys can tell me of a bold change in New Mexico in the last three years, I think we should go look at it,” King said at a news conference at which his Demo-
cratic primary rivals pledged their support in the general election. Martinez, who was unopposed in the GOP primary, has hammered away at King and the other Democratic gubernatorial candidates for weeks. Martinez campaign spokesman Chris Sanchez blasted King for his office’s handling of public corruption prosecutions. Charges against former Democratic Secretary of State Rebecca Vigil-Giron were dismissed in 2012 because a judge decided delays in the case violated her constitutional right to a speedy trial. King’s office is appealing
the decision. “Instead of taking on the state’s biggest corruption cases, Gary King either bungled them or looked the other way while Bill Richardson’s friends were not held to account,” Sanchez said in a statement. The Martinez campaign frequently invokes the former Democratic governor’s name in TV ads and in remarks. Richardson’s popularity plummeted in his second term in part because of political influence-peddling allegations, which never resulted in criminal charges against him or his aides.
Country Club Board. One of the biggest challenges patients face is diet, Dalton said. “If you have the willpower to avoid fast foods and eat healthy, you will extend your life by a lot,” he said. “The big thing I tell everyone is for your evening meal, all you need is a protein and a neutral.” By that, Dalton said he means people should eat simply in the evening, such as a piece of fish, chicken or beef for protein and a salad. Avoiding the starches, such as potatoes or rice, makes it easier for the body to digest the food. Patients who follow the wellness advice, modifying their diet and taking vitamins and supplements, can lose weight and feel better all around, Dalton said. Two of Dalton’s patients, Doug and Sandy Howard, said that Dalton has been caring for them for several years. “We first saw him when we were severely ill with mold exposure,” Sandy Howard said. “He treated us wonderfully with chiropractic, holistic, and homeopathic alternative treatments.” Dalton has helped the Howards over the years with injuries, allergies, surgery recoveries, misalignments and general preventive measures. “He has been a true friend and is very knowledgeable in many, many areas,” Sandy Howard said. “He is so much more than a chiropractor. He is a compassionate soul, a good, involved citizen, and a friend to his patients.” Another of Dalton’s patients, Patricia Gomez, said that Dalton was able to cure a disease that she had been told was incurable. “I have something called Meniere’s syndrome, which causes extreme vertigo,” Gomez said. “The room is spinning like you are on a merry-go-round.” Gomez said she went to nine doctors all over country and they all told her that her vertigo was incurable. “When it hits you, you can’t move,” Gomez said. “The whole room is spinning and you are throwing up. It was awful.” A friend recommended that she visit Dr. Dalton, and he diagnosed Gomez’s problems to be caused due to allergies. “He gave me a test, and told me to stop eating this, this, this and this, and I have been vertigo-free for a year now,” Gomez said. “I looked on Mayo Clinic website and it said that Meniere’s is incurable.” Gomez said she couldn’t say enough about Dalton. “I am on Cloud Nine because I have a life again,” she said. “I had stopped driving, and my children all live out of town and I couldn’t visit them. I am very appreciative of Dr. Dalton, he’s my hero. “
nents are no longer needed and not part of the compression-only CPR. “It’s hard to do 20 compressions, but if you need to use it, I think just being involved in the incident will get you going,” Silva said.
local VA’s computer system, comes as the Veterans Affairs Department grapples with allegations that secret waiting lists and delayed care sometimes led to the death of veterans in other states. The congresswoman said she has asked for more information from VA officials, including the results of an internal review. “We want everything, and I don’t think we should stop until there’s no stone left unturned,” she said. A VA spokeswoman didn’t immediately retur n messages seeking comment Wednesday. The Albuquerque Journal first reported on the practice by the Albuquerque medical center last week.

Details about scheduling problems at other VA facilities have continued to surface since the investigation began. The probe has found widespread problems throughout a health care system that provides medical care to about 6.5 million veterans annually.
An official with the VA medical center in Wichita, Kansas, said Wednesday that 385 veterans appeared on an unauthorized list of those waiting for care and an unknown number of those veterans waited longer than 90 days for treatment. The VA maintained 10 secret waiting lists of veterans seeking care at facilities in Kansas, Missouri, Illinois and Indiana, according to VA letters released this week. The letters also said at least 96 veterans waited more than 90 days for treatment at seven facilities in those states.

Teacher pay, copper wire micro school districts
A mood-setting short statement, typically from a policy person about policy, each year begins the legislative session report from the Legislative Council Service. For the “2014 Highlights,” released in May, a poet, T.S. Eliot, provided the statement, “Between the dream and the reality, between the motion and the act, falls the shadow.” Legislatures and poets deal with moods, uncertainty and mysterious processes. The key word was “shadow.” The council service said an important and obscure technical matter dominated discussions — the degree to which public school money goes to districts to use for overall education or how much is program-specific according to requirements set in Santa Fe. Two Democratic representatives, absent due to illness, provided another overlay of uncertainty, a second shadow.
HAROLD MORGAN
NEW MEXICO PROGRESS
The Legislature completed its main and constitutionally assigned task of creating a budget for the budget year beginning July 1. Priorities remain, in spending order, public schools, human services, higher education, general government, aka everything else, public safety and judicial. The normal budget track starts in the House and, once approved, moves to the Senate. About 40 percent of the time, the Senate starts the budget, as proved the case this year.
Roswell Daily Record
Highlights of the “Highlights” include: The above/below the line discussion resulted in both approaches getting more money. The 19 “micro” school districts, those with 200 or fewer students, will be required to find efficiencies as a trade for funding formula adjustments. (HB 35). A new term, “high school equivalency credential” replaces various names for what we lay folk call the GED, which turns out to be a trademarked term for something substituting for a high school diploma. (SB 44). Level 1 or “provisional” teachers and other education staff get a 3percent raise. The starting minimum for provisional teachers goes to $32,000.A three-year phased return to legally required class sizes and teacher loads begins. (HB 280). Charter schools lack these
requirements. Via “age-appropriate curricula,” students are to get instruction about sexual abuse and assault and prevention. (House Judiciary Committee Substitute for HBs 92 and 101). The most significant higher education bill was a patch for the lottery scholarship fund. (Senate Finance Committee Substitute for SB 347). Definitions were the stuff of SB 158 including “dual credit course,” and adding home schooling to “high school.” The redesigned Medicaid plan is called “Centennial Plan.” Hospitals get a Medicaid base rate increase. A safety net care fund will match federal funds for payment to hospitals. Counties other than Bernalillo and Sandoval “contribute.” New awareness promotion will hit human trafficking (HB 181) and the risk of older adults falling (HB 99). Copper wire theft got attention
(Senate Public affairs Committee Substitute for SB 21) as did texting while driving (SB 19). A driver may still legally pull over and text from the side of the road. Three of 36 proposed constitutional amendments made it. They are SJR 16 about judicial candidate filing, SJR 22 about urban counties, and HJR 16 about managing the land grant permanent funds. All three appear to be about details and therefore support reconsidering our Constitution to eliminate such trivia. Bills claiming to help the state economy seem worthy might do just that—a tiny bit. There will be a one-stop business portal (SB 9), liens on commercial property from real state brokers (HB 185), and state money to help communities pay for economic development professionals (HB 273). All so incremental.
EDITORIAL
President Barack Obama’s tough love for the planet
The Obama administration finally took the leadership role it needed to take on climate change when the Environmental Protection Agency announced a plan Monday to, for the first time, reduce carbon dioxide emissions from power plants by 30 percent from 2005 levels by 2030. The plan won’t take final form until next year, but the administration has set the right target, which could lead to significant mitigation of climate change if other nations follow, as well as a stronger economy through the development of new technologies and new markets. President Barack Obama’s tough love for the planet The new rule also should serve as a signal to India and China that the United States is serious about addressing climate change and is willing to take big steps to reduce its carbon footprint. At the same time, there is enough flexibility within the EPA’s proposal for states to meet the new standard in ways that best suit them, through shifting away from coal, making power plant upgrades, investing in renewable energy and improving energy efficiency. Meeting the new standard does not mean ruining the economy or sharp spikes in electricity costs, despite what you might be reading from hand-wringing opponents today. Nor does it mean going back to the Stone Age or living in the dark. Instead, this is a reasonable goal that can be met with minimal harm to the economy. And it’s a goal that needs to be met. A United Nations panel of scientists and the National Climate Assessment report both said recently that climate change is already here and that human activity is a primary cause. It is long past time to take action; reducing carbon emissions can help mitigate climate change. Curbing emissions from power plants is a good place to start because, as the EPA notes, they are the largest source of carbon emissions in the U.S., accounting for about onethird of all domestic greenhouse emissions. But other sources, such as vehicle emissions, also need to be addressed in the U.S. and especially in India and China. An analysis by the World Resources Institute analysis found that Wisconsin can reduce its carbon dioxide emissions “43 percent below 2011 levels by 2020 by extending its clean energy policies past 2015 and making better use of existing infrastructure.” The analysis said the state could meet that goal by meeting its renewable energy standard of 10 percent and continuing to build renewable energy generation; saving energy through increased use of its Focus on Energy program; increasing coal plant efficiency; increasing the use of natural gas plants; and using more combined heat and power systems — which use waste heat to generate electricity more efficiently than the average power plant — at sites such as universities, hospitals and dairy farms. We would include more nuclear power plants in that mix. A We Energies spokesman said in an email Sunday that the utility was concerned that the technologies needed to meet the rule might not be commercially available or costeffective. The utility also is concerned about the effect on the rates its customers pay. But he pointed out that We Energies already has begun to address climate change by making significant investments in renewable energy, switching some older coal plants to natural gas and building new coal plants that are far more efficient than their predecessors. He also said the utility hopes it receives credit under the new rule for making those improvements. Fair point. The new rule should not send anyone into a panic. Utilities and states already have begun to meet the standards. Furthermore, the rule is not as stringent as it might have been; there was an industry concern that the baseline would be 2012, which would have required deeper cuts than the 2005 baseline. Eventually, the U.S. will need to get to that level, but this is a good start. done that. Our bet is that the world will follow. Anything less than Monday’s announcement would have been a failure of leadership. REPRINTED FROM THE MILWAUKEE WISCONSIN JOURNAL SENTINEL
Welcome to the ‘no pee’ section of the pool America is poised to become the “no pee” section of the global swimming pool and the useless actions will cost us a bundle — raising energy costs, adding new taxes, and further crippling the economy. Yet, for President Obama, it’s all about legacy. On June 2, the EPA released its new rules for CO2 emissions from existing electricity generating plants—which the New York Times (NYT) states: “could eventually shut down hundreds of coal-fueled power plants across the country.” Supporters seem gleeful. USA Today cites the Center for American Progress’ Daniel J. Weiss as saying: “No president has ever proposed a climate pollution clean up this big.” In the Washington Post (WP), advocacy group Clean Air Watch’s director, Frank O’Donnell is quoted as saying: “This is a magic moment for the president — a chance to write his name in the record books.” The NYT claims the plan is “the strongest action ever taken by an American president to tackle climate change,” and could: “become one of the defining elements of

Mr. Obama’s legacy.” When the plan was released, there were two key aberrations. Much can be gleaned from what didn’t happen. It was widely believed that President Obama would make the announcement himself. Just two weeks ago, regarding Monday’s rule release, EPA Gina McCarthy said: “The president has indicated his intent to announce himself.” The Hill reported: “McCarthy called the move by Obama to announce the proposal ‘a strong indication of how important he sees this.’” But when it came right down to it, McCarthy made the announcement while Obama, according to the NYT, played “a supporting role by making a telephone call to the American Lung Association.”
The White House’s own website, in November 2009, announced Obama’s plans: “In light of the President’s goal to reduce emissions 83 percent by 2050, the expected pathway set forth in this pending legislation would entail a 30 percent reduction below 2005 levels in 2025 and a 42 percent reduction below 2005 in 2030.” Many media outlets, including the left-leaning Daily Beast, have indicated: “The EPA rules issued Monday are largely modeled on a March 2013 blueprint from the NRDC [Natural Resources Defense Council].” The NRDC plan projects 35-40 percent cuts in CO2 emissions over 2012 levels by 2025. As a result it was reasonable to expect reductions in the 40 percent range. The U.S. Chamber of Commerce did an extensive analysis of the impacts of carbon cuts of 42 percent—and the results aren’t pretty. But when the draft regulations came out, the goal was 30 percent, not 42, or even 35-40. The EPA attempted to debunk the Chamber’s claims. Tom Reynolds, the EPA’s associate
administrator for external affairs, called the report: “Nothing more than irresponsible speculation based on guesses of what our draft proposal will be.” Reynolds continued: “Just to be clear — it’s not out yet. I strongly suggest that folks read the proposal before they cry the sky is falling.” Obviously, Reynolds knew what the rest of us didn’t. Bloomberg calls the new rule “politically painful” for Democrats from coal-producing regions “as it forces power-plant closures and threatens to increase electricity rates for consumers.” It is clear that the administration has received pushback over the reported economic impacts of the regulations — which tells us why Obama didn’t make the announcement himself and why the required reduction was lower than expected. (It is important to note that within the proposed rule is an acknowledgement that the final number could be much higher — likely, closer to the expected 40-42 percent range.)
muscle and joint aches. I spoke to my colleague Dr. Jorge Plutzky, director of the Vascular Disease Prevention Program at Harvard-affiliated Brigham and Women’s Hospital, about this problem. Here’s what he shared: Muscle and joint aches typically go away gradually as your body adjusts to a statin. If not, switching to a lower dose, a different statin, or an every-other-day medication schedule should help. Another option is to take an over -the-counter coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supplement along with your statin. CoQ10 replaces an enzyme depleted by statins. Advocates say it relieves and prevents muscle pain. These benefits have not been proven in rigorous studies, but the supplement is unlikely to hurt you. And it
may allow you to continue taking your statin. There’s another, far more serious, muscle-related side effect of statins that you may be concerned about. It’s called rhabdomyolysis, a breakdown of muscle tissue that leads to the release of muscle fiber contents into the bloodstream. The symptoms of rhabdomyolysis are severe, body-wide aching, severe muscle weakness and cola-colored urine. They leave little doubt that something is terribly wrong. Still, if you develop muscle aches with statin use, tell your doctor. A simple blood test can tell if your muscle is, in fact, breaking down. If not, your doctor will likely encourage you to remain on a statin because

Statins have benefits beyond lowering cholesterol DEAR DOCTOR K: I had bypass surgery last year, and I’ve been on two different statins. But I had severe muscle and joint pain. Do I really need to be on a statin? The side effects are awful for me.
DEAR READER: Statins are the most widely prescribed cholesterol-lowering drugs. They significantly lower levels of harmful LDL cholesterol in the body. And they’ve been shown to reduce death, heart attack and stroke risk by up to 30 percent in people at high risk. Although statins were developed with the goal of lowering LDL cholesterol, they turn out to have at least one other major benefit. They quiet the inflammation that is inside plaques of atherosclerosis in

arteries of the heart, brain and other organs. That inflammation-fighting effect also protects against heart attacks and strokes. That’s the reason that recent authoritative guidelines recommend that people with, or at risk for, atherosclerosis take statins — regardless of their cholesterol levels. Most people tolerate statins without a problem, but statins can cause side effects, including

Artifacts can be misunderstood without their history Roswell Daily Record
MICHAEL HALL RMAC EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
As the executive director of the Roswell Museum and Art Center, I am responsible for educating the public on our many treasured artifacts. It is my belief that the RMAC’s collections represent a very wide variety of artifacts which teach our patrons about art, history and science. As a case in point, the Rogers and Mary Ellen Aston Collection of the American West is one of our most unique as well as one of our most famous permanent exhibits. It is an extremely popular exhibit for our numerous out-ofstate visitors especially. However, the exhibit itself is often misunderstood.
LETTERS
Rogers Aston is fondly remembered today as a prominent Roswell businessman, philanthropist and most notably as an artist. In the 1970s, he began creating a famous series of bronze castings from hand-carved, waxcovered, clay molds called the lost wax process. His fine bronze statues were the end product. They primarily dealt with the history of the American West, although he did touch on other themes as well. Greatly influenced by the art and friendship of Tom
Dear Editor, On the website of “Democracy for New Mexico,� a whole lot of gloating is going on is regard to a recent decision by Roswell’s mayor to pay for punitive damages in a recent lawsuit. The reason/excuse provided was that the insurance will cover it. Really! A comment from the website (www.democracyfornewmexico.com/democ racy_for_new_mexico/2012/04/aclu-suesroswell-for-violating-christian-preachersright-to-free-speech.html) reads: “I have personally witnessed these ‘preachers’ yelling at people and calling them names, such as ‘fags’ and ‘whores,’ and they were not dressed in suits hugging Bibles, but were dressed in militant black attire. I asked what church they were from, and they would only identify themselves as Baptists. I asked one of the preachers if he was without sin, and he answered, “Yes.� Considering that all mortal men are sinners, I suggested to one of his followers that they find a new preacher. “I am all for free speech and spreading the Word, but these two seem to be hiding behind the coat tails of the ACLU to continue stirring up the trouble they appear to thrive on, hence the multiple arrests and who know how many calls to the local law enforcement agencies.� Lesson learned: in some locales (hhhhmmpphhh it begins with an R) crime does pay. As many of us are aware, those “bullies without a pulpit,� the nefarious De Los Santos brothers, aided and abetted by courthouse con artists of the ACLU, scored big! Without a fight, our city has paid out $97,000! Far too often, our government spends other people’s money without considering the consequences. What adds as much surprise as disappointment is that

The chamber reported that global emissions are expected to rise by 31 percent between 2011 and 2030, yet, all the pain — economic and political — the new regulations, based on the reductions in the 40 percent range, would inflict “would only reduce overall emissions levels by just 1.8 percentage points.� Now, with the 30 percent reduction number, the global impact will be much smaller. Defending the NRDC plan, David Hawkins, director of climate programs, is quoted in Grist: “Power plants don’t operate in a vacuum. The energy they produce is fungible.� The same is true for the emissions. The U.S. can adopt these draconian regulations, but the U.S. doesn’t operate in a vacuum. The emissions are fungible. Bloomberg states: “The administration and its Democratic allies are bracing for a political fight over the rule, which is critical to Obama’s legacy on climate and his efforts to coax other nations to agree.� Australia has already walked away from its previous administration’s stringent climate policies due to economic pain and public backlash.

Lovell and Peter Hurd, all of Aston’s works convey great emotion through detailed casting of figures central to our history and culture. What very few people realize is that the Rogers Aston’s bronze works on display at the RMAC were inspired by the many western-related historical artifacts also on display in the Aston Gallery. True, Rogers Aston was a collector of artifacts from the early age of 14, when he first used his allowance to purchase an antique pistol. His wife, Mary Ellen, also had a passion for collecting Native American artifacts. These are now on exhibit in the Aston Gallery as well. Yet, the hidden story of
Mayor Kintigh’s appeal to the electorate is that he is said to be tough on crime; in this case, however, he is an enabler. Roswell’s City Council has a reputation of capitulating like a broken lawn chair when even the mention of a lawsuit is pending or whispered. Roswell is an easy mark for frivolous litigation by numerous flimflam men, street preachers, as well as motorists and bicyclists who circumnavigate barricades. (Are you taking notes Madame Marketing Director? This can be a tourist draw.) So what is to be done? Submitted for your approval is the case of Greece, New York. (supremecourt.gov/opinions/13pdf/12696_4f57.pdf) This town of 94,000 in upstate New York began its monthly town board meetings with a moment of silence. In 1999, the newly elected town supervisor, John Auberger, invited a local clergyman to the front of the room to deliver an invocation. And guess what, somebody sued, but unlike Roswell, the Greece Town Council rallied about doing the right thing over the easy thing and won in a Supreme Court decision. While the folks in Greece (the town, not country) provide us inspiration we still need a practical “how to� methodology to counter the anarchistic manifesto of the ACLU. This information can be found at http://aclj.org/get-legal-help. The American Center for Law and Justice, or ACLJ, offers free legal advice to citizens and local governments who are developing a strategy to fight back the ACLU. I encourage our mayor, city councilors and city attorney to toughen up and get battle ready for the next procession of swindling snake oil salesmen, but that time just say no. Jerry Heck Roswell

why those artifacts are so pertinent to Rogers Aston’s bronze sculptures is interesting. The secret is revealed when looking closely at those bronzes and the many sculpted details portraying firearms, helmets, knives, saddles, lassos and a host of Western-themed paraphernalia. If you tour the Aston galley itself, you can see those actual artifacts detailed in his bronzes. That is no accident because the historic artifacts which the Astons collected over the years served as models for the bronze details Rogers Aston depicted. Years later, they just happened to become extremely rare artifacts
from a collecting standpoint, and thanks to the Astons’ patronage, these wonderful and now priceless antiques are on display at the RMAC. It is completely thanks to Rogers and Mary Aston for their patronage to the RMAC that those artifacts now complement one another and are on permanent display. Rogers Aston will always be honored and remembered by this museum. He is a part of our history. Rogers Aston actually served as a curator at the RMAC for 18 years and focused on preserving the Robert H. Goddard historical artifacts which make up much of our present-day permanent Goddard exhibit
gallery. His enthusiasm for New Mexico-area history and culture complemented the RMAC so well because like the West, this museum is all about discovery. The dedication of key people like him over the years is why this museum is now such a strong and mature institution. Now being a municipal museum, the City of Roswell allows us to proudly preserve and educate our community about the wonderful artifacts we have. We hope you come and visit our Aston Collection soon because it is a treasure like many others in this museum which belong to all of you.

New study supports benefits of active video games
(Editor’s Note: “The Final Frontier normally appears on Sunday in the Roswell Daily Record.)
I have touched on the plethora of benefits that come from video games that are often over-looked by the stigma that violent video games and child obesity brings to the table. But now it seems that the latter of those two issues could be on the mend.
A study performed by UnitedHealth Group had participants, ages 8 to 12, enroll in a pediatric weightmanagement program called

First, a little bit about JOIN for ME. According to the UnitedHealth Group website, JOIN for ME is a first-of-its-kind, whole-family program to fight childhood obesity that engages
kids who struggle with extra weight, along with their parents, in a series of group sessions to achieve healthier weights through healthier family food choices, increased activity, and lifestyle improvement tracking.

with Kinect, with an active video game at their first session and a second game halfway through the program. Both groups received the same instruction, which means the second group didn’t receive additional instructions on how to use the games or how long to play each day.
However, providing participants with an active gaming console and a game resulted in a significantly greater reduction in relative weight and body mass index (BMI) percentile. These results more than doubled the impact of the program. So what does this mean? Active video games in moderation can be constructive for children.

help a child lose weight, but the fact of the matter is weight loss, as we all know, is a very tricky subject. Diet, frequency of exercise and even the lifestyle of a person affect body weight.
This study brings optimism to an industry that has long had fingers pointed in its direction as the cause of child obesity.
Now back to the study. The first half of the group enrolled in the program just as it is, while the other half received Xbox 360 consoles
The results, according to Mashable.com, were all children, regardless of study group, exhibited significant and clinically meaningful reductions in weight, consistent with the original JOIN for ME research.

mixture of clay, silt and sand. Sand is the coarsest mineral component and gives the grainy feel to soil. Silt is finer and feels like talcum powder or flour, and clay is composed of even smaller particles. The clay is small, flat plates that, when wet, slide over each other and give clay the slippery characteristics. When dry, the clay particles bind together strongly. The small gaps between the clay particles give clay its excellent water and nutrient holding characteristics. Organic matter is not a mineral component
of soil, but its ef fect on clay makes the clay behave like loam. Organic matter can also cause sandy soil to behave like a loam soil, holding more water and nutrients. However, organic matter continues to oxidize over time, turning into carbon dioxide and water. It must be replaced periodically. As many New Mexico gar deners have experienced, the clay soils, when dry, are more like concrete than soil. Digging and rototilling dry soils can be a major challenge. Even our sandy soils may have enough clay to bind the sand grains together and make the soil difficult to work. Adobe is formed by mixing clay and sand. In spring and summer, the best source of organic matter is compost (potting soil will work for this). In the autumn, manure may
be used to supply organic matter. The problem with adding manure to the soil during the growing season is that the high level of salt in manure can burn plants. Well-composted manure, fr om which salts have leached, or manur e applied in the fall and exposed to winter precipitation will add less salt to the r oot zone of gar den plants. The material collected from anthills may be useful or har mful. If the material excavated by the ants is very coarse, like large sand, it can help add porosity to the clay soil. If it is very find sand, it can turn the clay into adobe and may do mor e har m than good in your garden. You said you live on a sandstone mesa, so the important consideration is the size of the material
excavated by the ants. Organic matter, compost, is the best material to add to improve your garden soil. However, I do collect coarse, granular material from harvester anthills to use in potting soil for plants like cacti that require excellent drainage and good aeration around their roots.

Organic matter added to clay makes good gardening soil Q u e s ti o n : I live on a ranch about 15 miles from Fence Lake, atop a sandstone mesa and surrounded by heavy clay soils. My question has to do with modifying the clay soil to make it suitable for vegetable growing. I am constructing a raised bed 16-foot by 4foot and intend to backfill it with a layer of clean straw, topped with a mixture of purchased potting soil and some native soils as well. As I was looking for possible sites on the ranch that might have sand, I wonder ed if the material excavated from the large anthills might be useful material. Do you know what this material is and whether it has horticultural value? Or is it simply more clay? A n s w e r : The key to modifying clay soil to make it a better garden
soil is organic matter. Organic matter causes the very small clay particles to bind together into grains or clumps that cr eate channels for air and water. The clay still retains its characteristic to hold nutrients and water. The organic matter also helps hold nutrients to r elease to plants. The improved structure of the soil caused by the organic matter causing the formation of the grains makes it easier to dig and till the soil. Clay soil modified with organic matter performs more like loam soil, the preferred garden soil. T rue loam is a proper

BUSINESS REVIEW
Dr. Ranjith Wijeratne of Eastern New Mexico Gastroenterology recommends: Five Steps to Colon Health
Roswell Daily Record
Cancer of the colon is the third most common cancer in the United States – and, caught early, it’s also one of the most curable. About 90 percent of individuals whose cancer is found before it has spread survive five years after diagnosis. But, if not caught at this point, the fiveyear survival rate is just 10 percent. Colon cancer is cancer of the large intestine, the lower part of the digestive system. Most cases begin silently, as a polyp that causes few symptoms. Five simple steps can protect your health.
1. Get tested All adults over age 50 should begin routine colon cancer screenings. In 2008, the American Cancer Society (ACS) issued new screening guidelines to stress prevention as the primary goal and steer providers and patients toward those tests with the highest potential to prevent cancer. The recommendations add two new tests and more specifically define the differences between tests: Those
that find cancer, and those that can find precancerous growths (also known as polyps). ACS recommends those tests that actually examine the interior of the colon because they can not only detect cancer, but also prevent it by finding – and removing – polyps or growths that can potentially cause cancer. These tests include flexible sigmoia doscopy (every five years); a colonoscopy (every 10 years); a double contrast barium (every five enema years); or a CT colonography or virtual colonoscopy (every five years). Polyps found during these tests can be removed on the spot, simply and painlessly.

• Ethic background. African Americans have the highest number of colorectal cancer cases in the United States. 3. Know the symptoms vigilant about Be scheduled screenings, and if you have certain symptoms, see your doctor sooner. Symptoms may include persistent stomach discomfort, a change in bowel habits (diarrhea, constipation, or a change in stool consistency), abdominal pain accompanying a bowel movement, dark stools, weakness or fatigue, unexplained weight loss, or blood in the stool.
Testing options that look for evidence of actual cancer, include three types of stool tests – an annual fecal occult blood test, the annual fecal immunochemical test (FIT), and a periodic stool DNA test.
Dr. Ranjith Wijeratne specializes in Gastroenterology and can answer all your questions about colon health
• A high-fat diet.
• A family (i.e., sibling or parent) or personal history of colorectal cancer.
2. Develop awareness Know the risk factors associated with colon problems:
• A history of polyps or growths inside the colon and rectum.
• Advancing age, i.e., over age 50.
• Certain conditions that elevate your risk, such as Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis.
• Diabetes. People with diabetes have a 40 percent increased risk of colon cancer.
Symptoms vary, and certain foods or medications can also mimic these symptoms. It’s best to err on the safe side and check with your doctor about changes.
4. Practice prevention A balanced diet, regular exercise and smart lifestyle choices will keep your risk level in check. A diet rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains provides nutrients and the antioxidants that fight disease. Low-fat dairy
A7
products and limited consumption of red meat keep your saturated fat intake low. Getting your vitamins and minerals through a daily supplement helps, but food-based vitamins are more effective and more easily absorbed by the body. Regular exercise – at least 30 minutes most days of the week – helps build your body’s defenses. Finally, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption help, too.
5. Know your options Talk with your doctor about the best way to manage your risk. If you have an aboveaverage risk for colon cancer or an initial test reveals polyps, you and your doctor can decide the course of action that works best for you.
To schedule a colonoscopy, to learn more about any lifestyle modifications you can take now to prevent colon cancer, call to make an appointment Ranjith with Dr. Wijeratne at 624-4651, or log onto Eastern New Mexico Medical Center’s Web site at www.enmmc.com for more information.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Make time to reach out to someone you deal with on a regular basis. Tension might build around a money matter. Optimism seems to surround a roommate or family member. Though you enjoy this perspective, you might wish it were more realistic. Tonight: Go with a suggestion. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your imagination could go haywire, visiting nearly every topic except the one that is pertinent to the moment. Attempts to discipline your mind might fail. If you can, take a personal day, or take off half the day. You will feel refreshed soon enough. Tonight: Let the fun begin. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Pressure builds on the homefront. A partner, family member or roommate could become demanding, or a problem involving your home might become more obvious. Don’t expect to accomplish a lot with this issue looming over you. Tonight: Paint the town red. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Listen to news more openly. Your perspec-

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Sometimes you underestimate the effect you have on others. Therefore, you’ll make a point of
being very dramatic. Trust that you don’t need to present an exaggerated form of yourself. Refuse to become critical of someone. Tonight: Live it up, as only you can. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might wonder what is needed to follow through on a long-term commitment. You could be even more detail-oriented than usual, but in this case, you’ll be helping others involved see the big picture. Confusion seems to surround a partner. Tonight: Keep your own counsel.

or years, the name Steve Nunez was synonymous with Goddard High School baseball. Now Nunez is trading in the blue and white for the red and white. Nunez was hired as the head coach of the Roswell baseball program on Monday. “It’s exciting. I’m very enthused and happy, and just pumped up to get back into coaching and to get over to Roswell High,” said Nunez, who won 104 games in his seven-year tenure at Goddard. Nunez, a Goddard alumnus, stepped down after leading the Rockets to the state semifinals for the second time in 2011, and returned as an assistant under his successor, Alan Edmonson, for the 2014 season. “God has led me this way. I’ve prayed about it,” Nunez said. “I was with Alan over there at Goddard and had no inkling of being a head coach again, was just going to help out (as an assistant).
E-mail: sports@rdrnews.com
“But, everything kind of fell into place. ... The job came open and I started thinking about it and praying about it. God has led me that way and here I am.” Nunez was one of six finalists for the position. Ernie Lujan, Brian Espinoza, Roswell assistant Robbie Lovato, Roswell softball assistant Carlos Marrujo and former NMMI Bronco head coach Dr. Bret Simmermacher were the others. “What it came down to was Steve knowing the community having been around it and having been a head coach,” said Roswell High School assistant principal Brian Byrd, who, along with district athletic director Brian Shea, performed the interviews and made the final decision.

CALIFORNIA CHROME IS 3-5 FAVORITE BELMONT STAKES
NEW YORK (AP) — California Chrome became the early 3-5 favorite on Wednesday to win the Belmont Stakes and become horse racing’s 12th Triple Crown champion and first in 36 years. The Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner will face 10 rivals old and new on Saturday at Belmont Park. Since Affirmed became the last Triple Crown winner in 1978, three Belmont fields with the same history on the line also drew 11 horses in 1981, 1988 and 2002. “They better worry about me,” California Chrome trainer Art Sherman said. California Chrome will break from the No. 2 post under Victor Espinoza, putting nine horses to his outside and giving Espinoza a good look at the early speed. Eleven Belmont winners have come out of that spot in the starting gate, the last being Tabasco Cat in 1994. “I like number two,” Espinoza said. “Hopefully, it’s my lucky number.” Racing fans looking for an omen will see California Chrome listed No. 2 in the betting program, the same number as 1973 Triple Crown winner Secretariat, who won the Belmont by a record 31 lengths while setting a track record that stands for the 1 1⁄2-mile race. California Chrome went for his usual gallop earlier Wednesday, and Sherman was pleased. “I feel better about this race than I have any other race, to be honest with you, just looking at the horse and saying, ‘Wow,”’ he said. “I see how far he’s advanced.

Heat, Spurs start up again SAN ANTONIO (AP) — LeBron James and Dwyane Wade can point to statistics showing just how close the 2013 NBA Finals were. T im Duncan doesn’t need them. He can’t forget the way his San Antonio Spurs lost, especially since every replay brings another painful reminder. The Spurs were on the verge of celebrating a fifth title in Game 6, and just two nights later were congratulating the Miami Heat on their second straight crown. The Spurs wanted a
rematch, and so did basketball fans. It begins Thursday in San Antonio. “I think it’s great that these two franchises have this opportunity in back-to-back years to compete for a championship,” Wade said Wednesd a y . “Last y e a r was an unbelievable series and ... it went down to the very end. We won the series by a total of five points, you know? That’s how close it was. But it was a very even series. I think this year it could be another great See FINALS, Page B3

Habitat for Humanity selected as beneficiary R
oswell Habitat for Humanity has been selected as the primary beneficiary of the 2014 Rotary Desert Sun Classic. Habitat for Humanity builds houses in partnership with low-income families in the Roswell area. The program requires the families receiving the houses to share in the actual labor efforts and enter into a mortgage when they move into their home. A major contribution from the tournament will help defray building costs and reduce the mortgage amounts for the next four houses built. “Most of our partners are single-parent families who either rent or live with relatives,” says Bob Williams, Habitat for Humanity treasurer. “Having a home of their own stabilizes their lives and builds our community.” Over the past 23 years, the Rotary Desert Sun Classic has raised nearly $650,000 for worthwhile causes in Chaves County, including $42,000 last year alone. The tournament takes place July 1920 at Roswell’s renamed Nancy Lopez Golf Course at Spring River. Entry fee is $250 per golfer and includes green fees, cart, gift card and social events. The Rotary Desert Sun Classic is presented annually by the Roswell Rotary Club, Pecos Valley Rotary Club and Sunrise Rotary Club. The major sponsor is Desert Sun Motors of Roswell.

Offense carries Invaders past Douglas
Roswell scored at least four runs in three different innings and at least one in two others en route to a lopsided 16-3 win over visiting Douglas on Wednesday at Joe Bauman Stadium. After the Diablos scored three times in the first, Roswell blitzed three different Douglas pitchers for 16 runs on 15 hits. The Invaders took the lead with four in the first, then added two in the second, one in the fourth, five in the fifth and four in the seventh. Tyler Garkow improved to 2-2 after his second complete game in three starts. He struck out 14 and allowed eight hits. Tim O’Calighan last just 2 ⁄ 3 of inning and took the loss, his first decision of the year.

DETROIT (AP) — Adam Lind doubled twice to drive in three runs and Melky Cabrera added a homer and three hits, lifting the Toronto Blue Jays to an 8-2 victory over the Detroit T igers on Wednesday night. Lind’s two-run double off Rick Porcello (8-3) in the sixth put Toronto ahead 3-2, and Aaron Loup got out of a bases-loaded, none-out jam in the bottom of the inning in relief of R.A. Dickey (64). The AL East-leading Blue Jays added three runs in the eighth and two in the ninth in winning for the 18th time in 22 games. Miguel Cabrera and Ian Kinsler homered for Detroit, but Kinsler also left the bases loaded twice. The AL Central-leading Tigers left 11 runners on base in their fourth straight loss. Detroit has dropped 12 of 16. Jose Bautista also had three hits for Toronto, including a tworun double in the ninth.
Cubs 5, Mets 4 CHICAGO (AP) — Starlin Castro went 3 for 4 with three RBIs and the Chicago Cubs outlasted the New York Mets Wednesday night in a mistake-filled game that featured a combined 13 pitchers. Anthony Rizzo went 1 for 2 with two walks and two runs scored for the Cubs. Lucas Duda had a two-run double for a Mets offense that left the bases loaded in the fifth and sixth innings. The Mets have dropped two straight after winning three in a row and are 8-18 in one-run games. Cubs starter Edwin Jackson (45) lasted five innings, allowing five hits and five walks. Just one of the four runs he surrendered was earned. Hector Rondon pitched the ninth for his seventh save in eight chances. Reliever Dana Eveland (0-1) gave up a run in 2⁄3 of an inning to get the loss.

Longtime baseball fixture Don Zimmer dies at 83
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Don Zimmer, a most popular fixture in professional baseball for 66 years as a manager, player, coach and executive, died Wednesday. He was 83. Zimmer was still working for the Tampa Bay Rays as a senior adviser, and the team said he died at a hospital in nearby Dunedin. Zimmer had been in a rehabilitation center in Florida since having seven hours of heart surgery in mid-April. “Today we all lost a national treasure and a wonderful man,” Rays principal owner Stuart Sternberg said in a statement. Zimmer started out as a minor league infielder in 1949. Easily recognizable for the big chaw that always seemed to be in his cheek, he went to enjoy one of the longestlasting careers in baseball history. Zimmer played alongside Jackie Robinson for the only Brooklyn Dodgers team to win the World Series, was on the field with the original New York Mets, nearly managed the Boston Red Sox to a championship in the 1970s and was Joe Torre’s right-hand man as the bench coach with the
just as Nelson Cruz did a day earlier, and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Texas Rangers 6-5 Wednesday night. Markakis’ single in the sixth inning came after Adrian Beltre’s second home run of the game — a three-run shot — pulled Texas even at 5-all in the fifth. Cruz had three singles and reached twice on errors by Luis Sardinas, a surprise fill-in at shortstop for Elvis Andrus. It was the second time in less than a week Andrus wasn’t in the starting lineup. Bud Norris (4-5) allowing six hits and five runs in five innings for the Orioles, and the bullpen pitched four scoreless innings. Zach Britton earned his fifth save.
Athletics 7, Yankees 4 NEW YORK (AP) — Yoenis Cespedes homered twice, Josh Donaldson hit a tiebreaking shot in the seventh inning and Oakland overcame a four-run deficit to beat skidding New York for its fifth straight victory. Donaldson connected off Jose Ramirez, who was making his major league debut, and added a pair of infield singles. Cespedes also had three hits to help the A’s move a season-best 15 games over .500 at 37-22, the best mark in the American League. Jacoby Ellsbury had three hits, including a three-run homer, but the Yankees matched a season worst with their fourth consecutive defeat. They’ve been outscored 21-0 from the seventh inning on during the slide. An error by Derek Jeter hurt New York, which dropped to 1-5 on a seven-game homestand. Padres 3, Pirates 2 SAN DIEGO (AP) — The Padres had only one hit — Everth Cabrera’s bunt single in the first inning — and still beat Pittsburgh thanks to Francisco Liriano’s wildness. The Padres played ultimate small-ball, scoring on a sacrifice fly, an error and a bases-loaded walk to avoid a three-game sweep. Rene Rivera’s fly to Andrew McCutcheon to end the eighth was the only ball fielded by a Pirates outfielder. Carlos Quentin’s hit a sacrifice fly in the first, but it was
New York Yankees’ most recent dynasty. “I hired him as a coach, and he became like a family member to me. He has certainly been a terrific credit to the game,” Torre said in a statement. “The game was his life. And his passing is going to create a void in my life and my wife Ali’s. We loved him. The game of baseball lost a special person tonight. He was a good man,” he said. There was a moment of silence at Dodger Stadium for Zimmer before Los Angeles played the Chicago White Sox. “On behalf of Major League Baseball and the many clubs that ‘Popeye’ served in a distinguished baseball life, I extend my deepest condolences to Don’s family, friends and his many admirers throughout our game,” Commissioner Bud Selig said in a statement. Zimmer was married at home plate during a minor league game in 1951 — he is survived by his wife, who went by “Soot.” Along the way, he played for Hall of Fame manager Casey Stengel and coached Derek Jeter — quite a span, by any major league measure. Zimmer is survived by his wife; son Thomas, a scout with the San Francisco Giants; daughter Donna, and four grandchildren.

caught in short right by second baseman Josh Harrison. Ian Kennedy (5-6) won his third straight start, striking out seven and allowing two runs on five hits in six innings. He walked one. Huston Street pitched the ninth for his 18th save in as many chances. Liriano (1-6) walked six and struck out seven in five innings.
Marlins 5, Rays 4 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Donovan Solano hit a three-run homer off David Price to help Miami extend Tampa Bay’s longest losing streak in nearly five years to nine games. It is the secondlongest losing streak in the major leagues this season. Casey McGehee had an RBI single for the Marlins, who won the first two games of a four -game home-and-home series in Miami, including Tuesday’s 1-0 win on a bases-loaded walk. The sputtering Rays, coming off an 0-8 trip that was the worst in team history, tumbled 14 games under .500 at 23-37 — the second-worst record in baseball. The last time they were this far below the break-even point was the end of 2007, the final season they were called the Devil Rays. Cardinals 5, Royals 2, 11 inn. KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Matt Carpenter had a career-high five hits, including the go-ahead double in the 11th inning, and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday night to snap a three-game losing streak. After the Royals rallied with two runs in the ninth, Peter Bourjos worked a one-out walk off Royals reliever Kelvin Herrera (1-2) in the 11th. Carpenter then rapped his double to center field, drawing a roar from a crowd comprised mostly of Cardinals fans. Allen Craig added a two-run single off Tim Collins later in the inning, and Pat Neshek breezed through the bottom half to end the Royals’ six-game winning streak against National League clubs. Sam Freeman (1-0) earned the win with a perfect 10th inning.
Morse and Juan Perez homered with two outs in the sixth inning and San Francisco ended Cincinnati’s season-high four-game winning streak. San Francisco won for the 10th time in 13 games, improving the best record in the majors to 38-21. Morse hit a solo shot and Perez had a two-run homer off left-hander Tony Cingrani (2-6), who has lost all of his four starts since returning from shoulder tendinitis. Ryan Vogelsong (4-2) extended his recent streak of solid pitching by giving up two runs and seven hits in 6 1⁄3 innings while fanning a career-high nine. The right-hander is 3-0 with a 2.05 ERA in last four starts.
Twins 6, Brewers 4 MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Oswaldo Arcia drove in four runs, including the go-ahead run in the seventh inning to lead Minnesota to its seventh win in its last eight games against Milwaukee. Arcia hit a three-run home run in the fourth inning, going deep for the third time in 10 games since his recall from Triple-A, and Josh Willingham forced in a run with a bases-loaded walk in the fifth inning before setting up Arcia’s go-ahead single with a twoout double. Aramis Ramirez returned from the disabled list after missing 21 games with a strained left hamstring to wallop a three-run homer that tied the game at 4 in the seventh, following leadoff singles by Jonathan Lucroy and Carlos Gomez. Ricky Nolasco (4-5), who retired 13 straight batters until that point, recovered to finish the in ning and pick up the victory when the Twins rallied again in the bottom of the frame.
Nationals 8, Phillies 4 WASHINGTON (AP) — Stephen Strasburg struck out 11 in seven innings Wednesday night as the Washington Nationals kept the Philadelphia Phillies’ bats quiet yet again, winning in a rain-interrupted game.

Attorney: Donald Sterling agrees to sell Clippers
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling agreed Wednesday to sign off on selling the team he has owned for 33 years to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer for $2 billion, bringing the possibility of a resolution to weeks of rumors, uncertainty and looming possibilities for legal action. The agreement hadn’t been officially signed Wednesday afternoon, according to an individual with knowledge of the negotiations who wasn’t authorized to discuss them publicly. But Donald Sterling’s attorney, Maxwell Blecher, said he “has made an agreement with the NBA to resolve all their differences.” Sterling gave his consent to a deal that was negotiated by his wife, Shelly Sterling, to sell the team, Blecher said. Representatives for Shelly Sterling and the NBA declined to comment. The agreement was an about face for Donald Sterling, who just last week filed a $1 billion suit against the NBA in federal court alleging the league violated his constitutional rights by relying on information from an “illegal” recording that publicized racist remarks he made to a girlfriend. It also said the league committed a breach of contract by fining Sterling $2.5 million and that it violated antitrust laws by trying to force a sale. Blecher said that as a result of the agreement, the federal suit will now be dismissed. Sterling’s comments to V. Stiviano included telling her to not bring black people to Clippers games, specifically mentioning Hall of Famer Magic Johnson. They resulted in a storm of outrage from the public and players and even prompted President Barack Obama to comment on what he called Sterling’s “incredibly offensive racist statements.” NBA Commissioner Adam Silver ultimately decided to ban Donald Sterling for life and began efforts to force Sterling to sell the team. For weeks, Donald Sterling said through his attorneys that he would fight the NBA’s decisions to try to force his ouster as a team owner. But last week Shelly Sterling utilized her authority as sole trustee of The Sterling Family Trust, which owns the Clippers, to take bids for the team and ultimately negotiate a deal with Ballmer. Ballmer beat out bids by Guggenheim Partners and a group including former NBA All-Star Grant Hill. Ballmer made more than an hour-long personal visit to Shelly Sterling’s Malibu home last week and laid out his plan.

— and for the fourth time without issuing a walk. All but one of the strikeouts were swinging, including Marlon Byrd (95 mph fastball), Ryan Howard (95 mph fastball) and Domonic Brown (88 mph changeup) when the rain started to fall in the sixth inning. The only consolation for the Phillies is that they scored an earned run for the first time in four games when facing the Nationals’ ace. The streak reached 25 innings.
Angels 4, Astros 0 HOUSTON (AP) — Garrett Richards stuck out nine to match his career best over eight excellent innings and Los Angeles snapped a season-worst four-game skid. Richards (5-2) bounced back from a terrible outing in his last start when he allowed five runs while getting only two outs. It was the shortest non-injury-related start of his career. Joe Smith struck out one in a hitless ninth to complete the fourhitter for the Angels. Erick Aybar had two doubles and an RBI, and David Freese doubled and drove in a run for the Angels. Houston starter Jarred Cosart (4-5) allowed eight hits and three runs and tied a career-high with eight strikeouts in 6 2⁄3 innings.
Mariners 2, Braves 0 ATLANTA (AP) — Hisashi Iwakuma combined with two relievers on a six-hit shutout and streaking Seattle completed a two-game sweep. Cole Gillespie and Kyle Seager hit run-scoring singles. Seattle has won five straight, matching its longest winning streak of the season. Iwakuma (4-2) gave up only six hits with seven strikeouts and no walks in seven innings. The righthander was sharp, throwing 71 of his 96 pitches for strikes. Mike Minor (2-4) allowed only one run in seven innings, but the Braves fell to 0-6 in interleague games. Yoervis Medina pitched a perfect eighth before Fernando Rodney earned his 16th save with three straight outs in the ninth.

it’ll be tougher going a mile and a half, but this horse is a good horse. I think he’s the real McCoy.” Of Califor nia Chrome’s 10 rivals, four come into the Belmont off a five-week break. Commanding Curve hasn’t run since finishing second in the Kentucky Derby on May 3; Wicked Strong has been off since stumbling and finishing fourth in the Derby. Two other Derby horses, Samraat (fifth) and Medal Count (eighth), also skipped the Preakness on May 17.
Wicked Strong was a distant second choice at 6-1 and drew post No. 9. The colt is based at Belmont, and has one win in two previous races at the sprawling track. “I’m pretty confident; as confident as I can be,” Wicked Strong trainer Jimmy Jerkens said. “I really like how he’s doing. It’s a big, prestigious race and people are going to take a shot, especially with the distance being a big question for everybody.” None of the horses has run as far as they will on Saturday, and few will ever be asked to do it again in their careers. Since most U.S. horses are trained for speed, the distance is unfamiliar and they aren’t regularly trained to
Nunez
Finals
“Just watching what he’s done at Goddard, and how he built that program into a statetitle contender, that put him at the top of the list.” Nunez takes over a program that has won just seven games over the past two seasons and hasn’t won a District 4-4A contest since 2012. Dane Kyser won just 15 games in four seasons at the helm and resigned in May after finishing the season 5-22. Nunez said his first priority as the new coach is to bring a fresh attitude to the program. “My first priority is to get a new attitude, a new positivity,” he said. “We need to get the boys positive about what they’re doing and positive about the new philosophies I’m fixing to bring over there. He said that taking over at Roswell is a new beginning. “It’s a new beginning for me too. I’ve never really not liked Roswell High, but I never thought I’d be there. It’s a change. I’ve been welcomed with open arms over there.”
series.” From Tony Parker’s circus shot that stole Game 1 for the Spurs, to Ray Allen’s 3-pointer that saved Game 6 for the Heat, to James’ jumper that put away Game 7, almost every contest provided a new highlight. It deserved an encore, just like when the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers seemed to pick up right where they left off in the 1980s. The NBA hasn’t had a finals rematch since 1998, when Michael Jordan’s Chicago Bulls beat Utah for the second straight season. San Antonio is considered a slight favorite this time, perhaps a little deeper, healthier and better than it was last year, and owning the home-court advantage this time. The Spurs don’t need to change much to change the result. They outscored the Heat 684-679 over

run that far. The Belmont is the longest of the Triple Crown races. Four newcomers to the Triple Crown trail will try to derail California Chrome’s bid for history. Tonalist was made the third betting choice at 8-1 odds and will break from the No. 11 post. The colt has experience over the track, having won the Peter Pan Stakes on May 10. So are Commissioner and Matterhorn, both trained by Todd Pletcher, and Matuszak. Commissioner, listed at 20-1, finished second in the Peter Pan, and 30-1 shot Matterhorn was fourth. “We’re in the Belmont because we feel like they’re horses that want to stay the distance,”
seven games, and there were 47 ties and 42 lead changes, according to STATS. “If you look at the numbers, the lead changes, the ties and the points in that series, it’s almost even,” James said. “So we did our part, they did their part. “Both teams put themselves in a position to win an NBA championship, and we just happened to make one or two more plays to win it.” Duncan, a three-time NBA Finals MVP who had been 4 for 4 at this stage, wasn’t on the floor when the Spurs couldn’t come up with a rebound just before Allen’s shot. He then missed a shot and follow attempt from right in front of the basket in the final minute of Game 7 with San Antonio trailing by two. Not even getting back to the finals again with the league’s best record can make him forget. “It lasts. I have a very good memory, especially for my misses and losses. You keep those, you learn from them and you hope to

Pletcher said. “They both need to improve and they both need to run their best races to be a part of it.” Matuszak was second in the Federico Tesio at Pimlico on April 19, making him the most wellrested colt in the race. The 30-1 shot is trained and ridden by Hall of Famers Bill Mott and Mike Smith, respectively. Smith won last year’s Belmont aboard Palice Malice. Ride On Curlin and General a Rod are the only other horses besides California Chrome that will run in all three legs of the Triple Crown. Ride On Curlin was seventh in the Derby and second in the Preakness, while 20-1 shot General a Rod was 11th at

Churchill Downs and fourth at Pimlico. “Hopefully, another five-sixteenths of a mile and we’ll be able to catch him as opposed to the Preakness, but that Chrome is going to be hard to catch,” Ride On Curlin trainer Billy Gowan said. Ride On Curlin will have a new jockey for the Belmont in Hall of Famer John Velazquez, who regularly rides at the track. General a Rod has a new rider, too, with Rosie Napravnik aboard. At 12-1, Ride On Curlin was one of eight horses in the Belmont field listed at double-digit odds. General a Rod is one of four 20-1 shots. games in the first three rounds. The Spurs’ Manu Ginobili is also in much better shape this year and Patty Mills has emerged as an effective point guard off the bench, giving San Antonio options if Parker is slowed by the sore left ankle that knocked him out of Game 6 of the Western Conference finals. It’s the sixth finals for the Spurs since 1999 and Miami’s fifth in nine years, but both face uncertain futures. Duncan, Parker, Ginobili and coach Gregg Popovich could be near the end of their run together. James, Wade and Bosh can all become free agents this summer. That’s for July. For now, maybe the teams can duplicate last June. “You hope it’s going to be a great series for both teams’ sake, for the fans that love our game,” James said. “You hope it can be one of the great finals appearances.” Just like last year.
change them next time,” Duncan said. “That stuck with me and obviously it’s always in the back of my mind, and every time I see anything to do with that, it pops right back in.” James had similar regrets in his first finals with Miami in 2011, but it’s been all smiles since. The Heat are the first team to play in four straight finals since Boston from 1984-87, and can become the first three-time champion since the Lakers more than a decade ago. But their focus is only on winning the next title, not reminiscing about the last couple. “Last year is last year and we’re excited about it, but this trophy this year belongs to nobody,” James said. “It’s up for grabs.” Both teams have reason to think they will win it. Wade is much healthier than last year, when he needed extensive treatment before Game 7, and the Heat have been able to get him extra rest by losing just three
Kings take 1-0 lead in Stanley Cup finals
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Justin Williams scored 4:36 into overtime after a turnover by Dan Girardi, and the Los Angeles Kings beat the New York Rangers 3-2 on Wednesday night in the Stanley Cup finals opener. Williams was left alone in the slot after Girardi’s pass from his knees went straight to Mike Richards. Williams put his eighth goal of the postseason past Henrik Lundqvist, who made 40 saves and nearly stole an early win for the

The tension-filled opener was a fitting start to the finals for two teams that traversed perilous paths to the first New York-L.A. championship playoff meeting since the YankeesDodgers World Series in 1981. The Kings and the Rangers played a combined 41 games in the first three rounds — just one fewer than the maximum — to emerge from the middle of the playoff pack.

OBITUARIES
Roswell Daily Record
Last of original group of Navajo Code Talkers dies FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — The language he once was punished for speaking in school became Chester Nez’s primary weapon in World War II. Before hundreds of men from the Navajo Nation became Code Talkers, Nez and 28 others were recruited to develop a code based on the then-unwritten Navajo language. Locked in a room for 13 weeks, they came up with an initial glossary of more than 200 terms using Navajo words for red soil, war chief, braided hair and hummingbird, for example, and an alphabet. Nez never tired of telling the story to highlight his pride in having served his country and stress the importance of preserving the Navajo language. The 93-year-old died Wednesday morning of kidney failure with plenty of appearances still scheduled, said Judith Avila, who helped Nez publish his memoirs. He was the last of the original group of 29 Navajo Code Talkers. “It’s one of the greatest parts of history that we used our own native language during World War II,” Nez told The Associated Press in 2009. “We’re very proud of it.” Navajo President Ben Shelly ordered flags lowered across the reservation in honor of Nez from sunrise Thursday to sunset Sunday.
OBITUARIES
Gary Todd Sandoval
A Vigil with Rosary is schedule for 7 p.m., Thursday, June 5, 2014, at Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church for Gary Todd Sandoval, 48, who passed away Saturday, May 31, 2014, in Roswell. A Mass of the Resurrection is scheduled for 2 p.m., Friday, June 6, 2014, also at Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church with Rev. Joseph Pacquing presiding. Gary was born December 5, 1965, in Roswell, NM, to Johnny Sandoval and Celesta McCollom Sandoval. His mother preceded him in death. Gary is also preceded in death by his brothers Stanley Tubbs and Stewart Tubbs. Those left to cherish his memory are his loving wife of eighteen years Melissa Sandoval; daughter Gena Sandoval; father Johnny Sandoval; brothers Stacey Tubbs and wife Crystal, Steve Tubbs, Cliff Sandoval and wife Sabrina and Clay Sandoval and wife Ann; sister Sharon Northcott and husband Doug and numerous nieces and nephews. Gary had lived in Roswell all his life. He was of the Catholic faith and a member of St. John’s Catholic Church. Gary had worked at Roswell Wrecking for 24
Nez was in 10th grade when he lied about his age to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps not knowing he would become part of an elite group of Code Talkers. He wondered whether the code would work since the Japanese were skilled code breakers. Few non-Navajos spoke the Navajo language, and even those who did couldn’t decipher the code. It proved impenetrable. The Navajos trained in radio communications were walking copies of it. Each message read aloud by a Code Talker immediately was destroyed. “The Japanese did everything in their power to break the code but they never did,” Nez said in the AP interview. Nez grew up speaking only Navajo in Two Wells, New Mexico, on the eastern side of the Navajo Nation. He gained English as a second language while attending boarding school, where he had his mouth washed out with soap for speaking Navajo. When a Marine recruiter came looking for young Navajos who were fluent in Navajo and English to serve in World War II, Nez said he told his roommate “let’s try it out.” The dress uniforms caught his attention, too. “They were so pretty,” Nez said. About 250 Navajos showed up at Fort Defi-
years and then moved on to work for Progressive Insurance as a Senior Claims Adjuster. Gary was an amazing father, husband and friend. He will be greatly missed by his family and friends. Gary enjoyed spending time with his beautiful daughter Gena. Gena was Gary’s life and meant the world to him. He was known for his love of the Dallas Cowboys and dreamed of going to the new Dallas stadium. Arrangements have been entrusted to Ballard Funeral Home and Crematory. An online registry can be accessed at ballardfuneralhome.com. THE DAY GOD CALLED YOU HOME God looked around his garden And he found an empty place. He then looked down upon this earth, And saw you tired face. He put His arms around you And lifted you to rest. God’s garden must be beautiful He always takes the best. He knew that you were suffering, He knew you were in pain, He knew that you would never Get well on earth again. He saw the road was getting rough, And, the hills were hard to climb, So He closed your weary eyelids, And whispered “Peace Be Thine.” It broke our hearts to lose you, But you didn’t go alone, For part of us went with you The Day God Called You Home.
Doyle Lee Miles
Doyle Lee Miles, a long-
ance, then a U.S. Army base. But only 29 were selected to join the first allNative American unit of Marines. They were inducted in May 1942 and became the 382nd Platoon tasked with developing the code. At the time, Navajos weren’t even allowed to vote. After World War II, Nez volunteered to serve two more years during the Korean War. He retired in 1974 after a 25-year career as a painter at the Veterans Affairs hospital in Albuquerque. His artwork featuring 12 Navajo holy people was on display at the hospital. For years, Nez’s family and friends knew only that he fought the Japanese during World War II. Nez was eager to tell his family more about his role as a Code Talker, Avila said, but he couldn’t. Their mission wasn’t declassified until 1968. The accolades came much later. The original group received Congressional Gold Medals in 2001 and Nez often joked about pawning his. He measured the accuracy of the movie “Windtalkers,” based on the Code Talkers that came out the following year, at 78 percent and said the Navajo spoken by Adam Beach was hard to understand but “he tried his best.” Code Talkers have appeared on television and
time resident of Roswell and Dexter, passed away peacefully on June 3, 2014. Doyle was born in Dexter, NM, on May 29, 1930, to Fred L. and Mary N. Miles. His parents preceded him in death. Doyle was also preceded in death by his brothers Forrest Miles and Kenneth Goins and his sisters Lauda Ann Miles and Shirley Miles Pryor. He is survived by his beloved wife of 58 years, Fana Lou Miles, of Roswell, NM; his children Becky Conner and husband Tom of Roswell, NM, Glen Miles and wife Colleen of Montrose, CO, and Carrie Mead, of Portales, NM, along with his 4 precious grandchildren Cody Conner, Megan Hearting and husband Rusty all of Albuquerque, NM, and Micaela Mead and Whitney Mead (Scott Lara) all of Portales, NM. He is also survived by his brother Roy Miles and his wife Jetta of Roswell, NM. Additionally, Doyle is survived by many dear lifelong friends from the area. Doyle served in the US Army as a young man and had a long career with the AT&SF Railroad. He began his career as a telegrapher and mastered the Morse Code quickly and then progressed to station agent in both Dexter and Portales. Doyle was an honest, compassionate, and generous man. All who had the pleasure of knowing him felt his deep love and care. He had a keen sense of humor that kept others laughing throughout his life. It gave him great pleasure to bring a smile to others. He had a way with words and was an excellent story teller. Doyle was a talented woodworker and his creativity and talent were shared through his many projects. He leaves behind a wonderful legacy of love and kindness and his memory will live on in his family and friends. While we are sad to say goodbye, we know that he is bound for greater things and is resting in heaven watching over his family and friends.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE
DEAR ABBY: I just found out my husband was arrested for being with a hooker. My in-laws (whom I love and adore) bailed him out of jail. No one said a word about it to me. I don’t know how to confront all of them with the fact that I know about this “dirty little secret.” What should I do? BETRAYED WIFE DEAR BETRAYED: First, visit your gynecologist and ask to be treated for every STD known to man. Then invite your inlaws to a “family dinner,” tell them the cat is out of the bag and ask why
this was kept from you. And while you’re at it, ask your mother-in-law (whom you love and adore) how SHE would feel if your father-in-law had possibly exposed her to an STD and it had been kept from her. The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree. ##### DEAR ABBY: I’ll bet this is an issue in many homes. When my son “Chet” graduated from high school, we gave him a very nice graduation party, which included his friends and family. He received many gifts. I gave my son thank-you cards, stamps, and a detailed list of whom to send the cards to. So far, he has refused. Chet is normally thoughtful and considerate. I don’t know what to do. I’m embarrassed by his lack of gratitude. I have told him we have received thank-yous from his friends and that the cards can be brief. Should I send the thank-you notes myself, or just let it go? EMBARRASSED MOM IN CALIFORNIA
COMICS
DEAR MOM: If the amount of mail I receive from readers complaining that their gifts are not acknowledged is an accurate barometer, your problem is very common. Without being confrontational, ask your son why he refuses to thank the people who gave him gifts. If the answer is he doesn’t know what to say and he’s embarrassed that he has procrastinated, offer to help him by making suggestions. You’re right; the thank-yous don’t have to be lengthy. But DO NOT write them for him. Chet is a big boy and the responsibility is his. #####
DEAR ABBY: I am a divorced, single woman in my 50s. I love my grandchildren dearly but am faced with a dilemma. I work full-time and take my grandchildren some nights and on the one day I have off — usually on weekends. I can’t plan things on a weekend without feeling I have made it difficult for my son and his wife to find someone to watch their children. Her
mom, a stay-at-home wife, watches them several days a week.
I want to continue spending time with my grandkids, but I also want the freedom to be there when I choose to be. I realize finding a sitter you can afford and trust to watch your children is a challenge. I have tried talking to my son, but it doesn’t seem to get through to him. I know I need to do something, but what? I’m afraid I won’t see the kids at all if I take a stand.

LADY ON THE LAKE IN MICHIGAN
DEAR LADY:
Check your calendar and plan some time for yourself — one or two weekends a month. Then tell your son and his wife which ones you will be AVAILABLE. Free baby-sitting services are hard to come by, and you are not giving yourself enough credit. If the unspoken threat is that it’s “all or nothing,” then, frankly, you should step back further and let your son and daughter-in-law shoulder even more responsibility for the children they brought into this world.

Today’s Crossword Puzzle
Dear Heloise: I really appreciated your column in the Orange County (Calif.) Register on CARBON MONOXIDE. I had carbon-monoxide poisoning in 2013, after being sick for one and a half to two years, with symptoms coming and going. I had seen 35 doctors in one year and gone to the emergency room so many times that I couldn’t keep count. I was told I had anxiety and that was why my heart was racing out of nowhere. I finally tried alternative medicine, and I was told that I had too much gas in my body. This convinced me that I was being poisoned by something in the air, but I couldn’t figure it out. I finally bought a carbon-monoxide detector and tied it around me. It went off in my car! I had an exhaust leak from a broken bolt in my highend SUV, which caused the detector to go off like crazy! I made one final trip to the emergency room because I was so dizzy and thin. I asked them to do a blood-gas test (that was never done on me), which came back positive for carbon-monoxide poisoning! I think the message needs to be out there that carbon-monoxide poisoning is very real, and it can be in your home or even your car (I am now in a new car). Suzanne L. in California What an extreme case, but worth sharing with others! So glad you are now doing well and were able to figure this out! Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: I groom my Yorkshire terrier. I can see the damage if I cut off a knot of hair with scissors. Instead, I use an envelope opener (the square, plastic kind with a razor blade inside it). It magically separates and removes the knot. R.N., via email

Dogs can get knotted so easily, and they feel so much better with the knots gone! Just be careful when using any sharp object near your dog, especially close to the eyes! Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: My wife and I divide the to-do list around our house. I write mine on the back of one of the extra business cards we have lying around. I can easily slip it into my wallet and have access whenever I need it. Jack in Tennessee Dear Heloise: Would you please tell your readers that when sending sympathy cards, memorials, donations, flowers and even food, in memory of someone who has passed away, to please sign their first and last names and add their mailing address? After my mother’s funeral, I wrote 350 thankyou cards. However, there were several people whom I could not thank, even though I wanted to, because I did not know their last names and/or mailing addresses. D.E., via email Dear Heloise: If you put ointment on a bandage pad, rather than directly on the wound, it’s less likely to smear onto surrounding areas, which keeps the bandage from adhering well.
