Boy, 9, hospitalized after being mauled by 3 dogs

BY RANDAL SEYLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

A 9-year -old Chaves County boy is in the hospital after being mauled by three dogs early Wednesday morning.

The dogs were pit bull mixes, and two of the animals were shot by the boy’s father, said Lt. Mike Herrington of the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office.

The incident occurred at 5196 Vista Lane, which is the location of a kennel,

Herrington said.

“The people there run a shelter where they rescue animals from the pound.

These four dogs had gotten out.”

The kennel was operated by a group called Doggy Saviors, according to officials. There were four dogs in the pack that attacked the boy, but only three animals actually bit the child.

“One of the dogs was killed, and the other was wounded and ran of f. It was later put down by the

detective who lives out in the county. The police department is not releasing any infor mation on the incident, including the name of the detective involved.

animal control officer,” Herrington said. “The other two dogs in the attack have been quarantined for observation to make sure they don’t have rabies.”

The attack happened at about 9 a.m. and the boy was taken to a local hospital, then airflighted to Lubbock for medical care.

“I was at the hospital this morning, and I saw that little boy,” said Mayor Dennis Kintigh. “It wasn’t good.”

The boy is a son of a Roswell Police Department

“What was disturbing to me is that the reports I have received indicate that these particular pit bulls had been rescued from the pound,” Kintigh said, “and that animal rescuer was not keeping the dogs under See DOGS, Page A3

Veterans Affairs requires veterans to travel to its facility in order to get treatment. If a veteran does not live near a VA facility, there are numerous challenges.

While there is an abundance of dysfunctional issues pertaining to VA health care, patient travel is one of easiest fixes.

To make that fix, U.S. Rep. Steve Pearce sponsored H.R.635 — Help Establish Access to Local Timely Healthcare for You (HEAL THY) Vets Act of 2013. The bill would allow veterans to access local health care facilities, which will save the veteran time, money and physical strain.

Currently, veterans must travel to VA hospitals for the majority of their treatments. This distance can often be a major roadblock to health care for veterans living in rural areas who have to travel long distances to reach the closest VA hospital. Veterans in Roswell and surrounding areas are faced with this

challenge.

The HEALTHY Vets Act would allow veterans to use health care providers in their hometowns by directing the VA to contract with local hospitals and doctors on a case-by-case basis to provide medical services.

The bill, which was originally filed in February of last year has been reintroduced, and action is soon expected.

At a recent town hall meeting, Pearce discussed his advocacy for a fee-forservice-based system as detailed in the bill. One of the veterans present at the meeting described the route he underwent to get hearing aids. After waiting two years, the hearing aids were finally acquired, but he said a better use of health care funding would have been for the expenditures to have gone toward a local doctor instead of on gasoline and Albuquerque hotel rooms.

Eric Espinoza of Pearce’s Roswell office said that an additional advantage of a

Anderson transferred to ILEA welcomes officers from Central America Lovelace rehab hospital STAFF REPORT

Phelps Anderson, owner of SunValley Energy Corp., was transferred from University Medical Center in El Paso to Lovelace Rehabilitation Hospital in Albuquerque Tuesday as he recovers from injuries he sustained in a single-vehicle crash on May 18.

The wreck occurred on U.S. Highway 70 near the 297 milepost, according to the New Mexico State Police.

Anderson apparently was trying to avoid a deer coming home from his family’s ranch in Picacho. His vehi-

cle collided with the guardrail and rolled three times in the median. After the crash, Anderson was airlifted to University Medical Hospital, where he was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit.

In a released statement, Anderson’s wife, Ann, said Lovelace provides a bed for the patient’s spouse, which allows her to keep a close watch on him.

“His humor is returning, so a close watch on Phelps, as you know, is imperative,” she said.

people are excited about it.

“We are very pleased to be here,” said Denzie Phillips, the delegate speaker from Belize. “The connections we are building … will serve meaningful purpose.”

Mayor Dennis Kintigh has spent most of his career in law enforcement and said that Roswell is very different than other areas in the U.S. “[There are] very few people working in a large area,” he said. “You will also come away with a better understanding of Americans.”

Final wishes important for families to know

Gabriel Casaus, manager and funeral director at LaGrone Funeral Chapel, asks for a show of hands of everyone with automobile insurance during his discussion of pre-planning for funerals and final wishes at the Roswell Kiwanis Club meeting on Tuesday.

They say two things are inevitable in life — death and taxes.

Everyone complains about taxes, but most people don’t even like to talk about death. However, that lack of discussion eventually often leads to hard feelings and financial hardships for families.

“Everyone has insurance on their car, and most people have insurance

against a house fire, but how many people have pre-planned their funeral?” asked Gabriel Casaus, manager and funeral director at LaGrone Funeral Chapel. “People buy insurance all the time for something that might happen, but not many buy insurance for something that is definitely going to happen to everyone sooner or later.”

Casaus was speaking to the Roswell Kiwanis Club on Tuesday about pre-

planning for funerals and the different types of preplanning insurance available.

“Typically, the pre-planning insurances programs are transferrable, from one funeral home to another and from state to state,” Casaus said, “and they typically are paid out in three -, five- or seven-year programs.”

The payment plan option is usually not available once a person reaches the age of 90, but if the

amount of the services are paid in full upfront, then age is not an issue.

“The typical funeral costs $7,000 to $10,000,” Casaus said, “and unfortunately, a lot of people think that their life insurance policy will cover funeral expenses, but the average amount of insurance the typical American has is only $10,000 to $20,000.”

Stay informed by using RPD’s websites STAFF REPORT

In September, the Roswell Police Department announced two new websites that are available to the Roswell community.

By utilizing the websites, individuals not only have a greater opportunity to stay informed as to what law-breaking is actually occurring within the community, but also how police are combating crime. The RPD remains enthusiastic in being able to assist the community in a different way online.

The first site is the Roswell Police Department website. It features each division of the RPD (as well as the most recent division added,

street crimes) in such a way that everyone will be able to see the many intricate divisions of the police department.

The roswellpolice.com site features Roswell’s most wanted information, including a photo and brief description of the wanted individual, as well as a press release section.

Off-site links are also available on the site, such as the RPD Facebook page, the Chaves County Crime Stoppers, a link to the Neighborhood Watch program and more.

The second website is something new to New Mexico. It is a police-tocitizen website that can be accessed via the RPD website. The website is called RPD P2C. “P2C” stands for

“Police 2 Citizen.” The site allows public access to PDF versions of incident and accident reports.

One of the most used features of the “P2C” site is the Daily Bulletin.

By utilizing the Daily Bulletin, community members are able to see at a quick glance what incidents, arrests (with mug shots), and accidents occurred on a specific date. A “frequently asked questions” (FAQ) section is also available. Please be patient as this site may take a little longer to upload. It is also possible you may have to disengage a “popup blocker” that will not allow you to access the site.

For more information, call 575624-6770.

The funeral insurance programs are now federally insured and are regulated, making them safe investments.

“In the past, there were funeral homes that would take the money and run, but that isn’t the case anymore,” he said.

As a funeral director, Casaus said when people bring pre-planned policies to him, he honors them as written because that is what the customer purchased and expected.

However, not all funeral homes follow that policy.

“In some cases, there could be additional expenses,” Casaus said.

Applicants must have a minimum accumulative GPA of 3.0 and have completed at least one semester of college.

These scholarships are available for applicants from Roswell or the immediate surrounding communities. Scholarship applications for the fall 2014 will be available by Aug. 1 in the Volunteer Services Department at ENMMC. Through sales in the Auxiliary’s Hospitality and Thrift Shops, membership dues, memorials and

numerous fund raising activities, the ENMMC Auxiliary has awarded over $650,000 in scholarships since 1996 to students in the medical field.

The Auxiliary is a 501(c)3 organization instituted in 1958 and provides services in the hospital and throughout the community.

cerns are not the biggest problem when people are faced with the death of a family member.

“If there isn’t some sort of communication before hand, the family is left to guess what the deceased person’s final wishes were,” Casaus said.

This not knowing is something Casaus sees every week, and it is stressful on the survivors, who are also dealing with grief and all the emotions that come with the death of a loved one.

“A relative will come in and say, ‘grandma wanted this for her funeral,’ then another relative will say, ‘Hey, you didn’t see her for 10 years! How do you know what she wanted?’”

Casaus said. “It can get really ugly, and I see it all the time.”

“People have all this grief, fear and anger, and they bring those emotions with them, and sometimes tur n them against the funeral director and other family members,” Casaus said. “Having a plan ahead of time takes at least that emotional stress

away from the family.”

Casaus suggests people make their final wishes known, even if they don’t purchase pre-planned funeral insurance.

VistaCare Hospice of Roswell, a Gentiva company, has a booklet called “Five Wishes” available for the public. Published by Aging with Dignity of Tallahassee, Fla., the booklet is a way for people to write down their final wishes, not just for funeral services, but for end of life care as well.

VistaCare Hospice is located at 400 N. Pennsylvania Ave., in the Wells Fargo building.

It is an easy to complete form that lets the person filling it out say exactly what they want, and once it is filled out and properly signed, it is valid under the laws of most states.

“Five Wishes” meets the legal requirements for an advance directive in New Mexico, according to the website, agingwithdignity.org.

“Just like in 41 other states, you can use ‘Five Wishes’ in New Mexico to

of the U.S.” “These people … friends, my delegates — when they return home, they have more than their professional title. They are ambassadors,” he said.

A lot of the visiting police officers have felt at home in Roswell.

“The people here are very warm, nice and friendly.

The hospitality is awesome.

Sometimes I have to ask myself, ‘am I home or somewhere else?’” Phillips said.

Some of the police officers said they are so apprecia-

tive of the hospitality in Roswell that they plan on doing the same for Americans in their countries.

“I can say that if you’re ever planning to go to Honduras, you will have place to stay,” said Honduras delegate Miguel Martinez.

express how you want to be treated if you are seriously ill and unable to speak for yourself, using a document that is easy to understand,” the website states. “All you need to do is check a box, circle a direction, or write a few sentences.”

Once the booklet is signed and witnessed, it becomes a legal document, according to the website.

The “Five Wishes” program was started by Jim Towey, who worked with Mother Teresa for 12 years. Inspired by his experiences, Towey sought a way for patients and their families to plan ahead and to cope with serious illness.

The “Five Wishes” booklet is available in 26 languages and in Braile.

“Just having your wishes known can make a big difference,” Casaus said.

“I recommend everyone have that discussion and let your loved ones know what you want your funeral to be like. It can save a lot of stress at a very stressful time.”

Harrell said his goal is to infuse scientific curiosity in children. The Curious Kids Club Promise states: “I will search for my very own answers, to my very own questions, on my very own!

Big people, the TV and computers can help me, but I will first use my own eyes, ears, nose, mouth, hands, feet and my own mind to satisfy my curiosity.”

Harrell said he used the “inquiry method” when he taught fourth through sixth grades at the Arts Academy at Bella Vista in Clovis.

“The more kids can do hands-on, the more they are going to learn,” he said.

His music kept the youngsters engaged, when they weren’t vying with their raised hands to be volunteers in his next scientific demonstration.

Harrell, of Portales, said Roswell is a natural location to spark an interest in young scientists.

He used props, songs and volunteers to demonstrate the meaning of New Mexico’s state flag. Children volunteers helped him discuss the state’s insect, the tarantula hawk wasp; the state tree, the pinon tree; the state amphibian, the spadefoot toad; and the state cookie, the bizcochito.

“I taught science when I was teaching, so I can continue to teach in a relaxed environment,” Harrell said.

“Science is like a segue to reading, math.”

Children later pretended they were rockets blasting of f or planetary bodies orbiting the earth. Harrell demonstrated rocket propulsion with a small pyrotechnic explosion that wowed the young audience.

Harrell’s last demonstration tackled the big state question of which was preferable — red chile, green chile or “Christmas” chile, a combination of both red and green.

Harrell’s two performances at the library Wednesday were the first of the “Fizz, Boom, Read” series with guest performances every Wednesday through July.

Seating is limited to the first 150 people in the library’s Bondurant Room.

Wednesday was Harrell’s first per for mance at the library.

“In the summer, we invite special guests to share their creativity and their knowledge with us,” said assistant children’s librarian Kate Keith. “It’s a fun way to get people to come to the library. Come enjoy reading, enjoy the summer reading program. It’s a good way to keep kids reading over the summer vacation, and grown-ups too.”

The Spring River Zoo will present next Wednesday at 3:30 p.m.

A dairy classroom will be held July 25.

The Roswell Fire Department will make a presentation July 9, followed by the Spring River Zoo and Roswell Police Department on July 16.

Andy Mason is the guest performer July 23 and Tall Paul Magic closes the guest performances on July 30.

The library’s year-round free story times will continue throughout the summer, every Saturday. Tween craft workshops will take place on Fridays for children ages 10 to 12.

The library’s Summer Reading Adventure program ends July 31.

All ages may participate in the summer reading program, reading either fiction or non-fiction works. Prizes are awarded for the number of hours spent reading or listening to books being read.

For more infor mation about the library’s summer programs for children, call children’s librarian Deanne Dekle at 622-7101.

VA-funded local-fee-for-service program is that it would help rural areas by providing an enticement for physicians to open private practices. These doctors would serve veterans as well as all members of the community.

Espinoza added that discussion is under way to create partnerships between VA and medical schools to facilitate such opportunities. Doctors who opt in would gain valued experience in the treatment of longterm outpatient care of veterans requiring follow up treatment from battlefield trauma injuries.

It was also learned that the VA does have a small, unpublicized program feebased service where if the stringent eligibility requirements are met, the VA will pay for services if the veteran is farther than 40 miles from a VA facility.

The Rural Health business manager at the VA Center in Albuquerque was contacted on how a veteran can obtain eligibility for fee-based services. The call was forwarded to the Public Affairs Office, and the VA official was not aware of the program but would follow up.

Little seems to be known about the feebased services or proposed voucher program in the private sector as well.

When Lori Volkin, public information officer at Lovelace Regional Hospital in Albuquerque, was asked whether vouchers would be accepted by Lovelace, Volkin said the hospital system was not aware of the specifics of the proposed legislation.

Volkin referred the question to Lovelace Regional Hospital-Roswell’s CEO, Dawn Tschabrun, who responded, “Lovelace Health System is committed to the health and well-being of active military members, National Guard, veterans and their family members.

“We continually work with these groups to provide accessible and high quality care.

Lovelace supports any efforts to make health care access easier and more convenient for veterans across New Mexico.”

There is considerable agreement on the principles of Pearce’s initiative among many legislators and veterans’ organizations.

Garry Augustine, executive director of the Disabled American Veterans, said, “They [the VA] have always had the authority to utilize purchased care, and we don’t think it’s used very effectively.”

Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M., introduced the Rural Veterans Improvement Act of 2014 to improve the state of health care services for veterans living in rural areas of the country. This bill would allow for the VA to work and coordinate with non-VA mental health care providers in rural areas, increasing local access for veterans. In addition, the bill seeks to improve the VA’s transportation program, so that veterans would not have to rely on their friends and families for rides to and from appointments. Udall’s bill has similar provisions as those discussed by Espinoza to incentivize health care professionals to work in rural areas for doctors by creating programs in universities to help prepare medical students for work in such rural areas.

A co-sponsor of Pearce’s bill is Rep. Andy Harris, R-Md., who is a Navy veteran and physician with experience in both the military and veteran health systems.

Under Harris’ plan, veterans would be able to opt out of the VA Health System entirely, and instead get care through a private health insurance plan.

Harris’ observations are in line with Pearce’s.

Harris stated on his website, “In rural parts of the country, like the Eastern Shore of Maryland, which is in my district, veterans often have no choice but to drive several hours to a full-service VHA-run hospital, or to see a physician specialist.

“This is in stark contrast to all other Americans with health insurance who can go to physicians and hospitals just up the street or in the next town over.”

The compact of citizens with the defenders of the nation extends almost 500 years to when the Pilgrims of Plymouth Colony enacted laws to care for those injured in the defense of the settlement. The Continental Congress pledged to care for the wounded patriots of the Revolutionary War. President Abraham Lincoln personally corresponded with widows of the Union and Confederate armies to ensure these pensioners were properly compensated.

Veteran care was initially provided by the states. The first federal program for veterans dates back to 1811. The establishment of the Veterans Administration occurred in 1930, when three different federal agencies were combined. President George H.W. Bush elevated the agency to cabinet-level in 1989, when the Veterans Administration became the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs.

In 1930, the Veterans Administration operated 54 hospitals. Now, there are 152 Veterans Affairs hospitals, 800 outpatient clinics, 126 nursing homes and 35 domiciliary facilities.

The VA is a brick-and-mortar 1930sbased leviathan comprised of 300,000 employees or about 15 percent of the total federal civilian work force.

Last week, Senate Veterans Affairs Committee Chairman Bernie Sanders, D-Vt., and Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., agreed on the framework of a bipartisan veterans’ health care bill.

The bill would implement a number of reforms, such as expediting the authority to fire incompetent high level VA officials.

The Sanders-McCain bill mirrors Pearce’s plan by allowing veterans living more than 40 miles from a VA hospital or clinic to access private health care.

Anthony Wallis of The Association of the U.S. Navy testified to the Joint House and Senate Committees on Veterans’ Affairs on March 6: “It is well known that a large population of our nation’s veterans comes from rural areas of the country. This presents numerous challenges to a veteran if he or she has a service-related disability, as time of travel, expense of travel and ability to do so are all affected by distanced care centers. The VA must do more in terms of attracting promising young health care professionals to needy rural areas.”

The VA is conducting a 90-day surge by extending hours at all VA facilities.

The owners of the kennel, Doggy Saviors, signed the remaining 18 animals, including two surviving animals that were involved in the attack, over to the animal control officers, and county and city animal control worked together to transport the animals to the shelter in Roswell.

OPINION

I stand corrected: Front-runners can finish last

I stand corrected.

In a column late last March this reporter opined to the effect that “Front-runners don’t finish last.”

The impetus for this contention was the dead-last finish New Mexico Attorney General Gary King had posted just a few days earlier at the state Democratic Party’s preprimary convention.

Gary King’s name recognition with New Mexico voters is considerable, I noted. He has been on statewide ballots no fewer than two times. His family has been prominent in state politics going back to the 1960s. He served in the Legislature with distinction for 12 years.

What’s more, leading up to this year’s state Democratic convention, he was seen as the logical front-runner for the top spot on the Democratic June primary ballot where his competition consisted of four other Democrats who

were little known to the rank and file party voters who would be voting in the June 3 primary.

On top of all that, no New Mexican who had finished last at his or her party’s state convention had ever gone on to win that party’s primary election contest.

It seemed inevitable, but I now stand corrected.

On June 3 Gary King comfortably won the 2014 Democratic nomination to carry his party’s gubernatorial standard into the Nov. 4th general election where his opponent will be the incumbent Republican gover nor,

Roswell Daily Record

Susana Martinez.

Pundits in New Mexico’s political vineyards assure us that it will be an uphill and, most likely, losing battle.

Martinez, they note, has more money in her campaign kitty than Fort Knox has gold in its vaults.

Her poll numbers are high. She has a campaign organization every bit as savvy and taut as the one that put her in office four years ago.

She also has the determined support of all the major political figures and big time GOP money bags who call the shots and ladle out the campaign boodle in national Republican Party affairs today.

Gary King’s campaign, in turn, is by all accounts cash poor.

Aside from his primary election victory this month, his campaign organization is untested as it inches its way into the fray.

No less ominous, his national

political party has made it known that it plans to put its money elsewhere, in Democratic gubernatorial campaigns where the odds of success are more promising.

And words once uttered by the chairman of his own state Democratic Party, Sam Bregman, are now being used against Gary King in a television advertisement paid for by the national Republican Governors Association.

That ad began broadcasting in New Mexico just days after King’s primary victory.

Bregman has notoriously looselips and the state Democratic Party made a curious choice when it picked him to be its chairman heading into a general election year.

He’s a jovial fellow, off stage, that is. But Sam Bregman has a history of grandstanding and popping-of f at odd political moments.

In the recent primary campaign for the Democrats’ State Treasurer nomination, Bregman threw himself into the race when he publicly blasted one candidate, John Wertheim, for his criticisms of another candidate, T im Eichenberg, just days before the election.

Eichenberg won, but Bregman’s intervention on his behalf raised not a few Democratic hackles.

Nor were some state Democrats amused to discover that remarks he made earlier describing Gary King as “the worst attorney general” in New Mexico history are now the centerpiece of that Republican Governors Association TV spot, which became the GOP’s first salvo against King in the 2014 gubernatorial campaign in New Mexico.

Perhaps it is time Sam Bregman says, “I stand corrected.”

Obamacare boosts ER patients, wait times

Five hours, 26 minutes. That's the average length of time, according to the California Healthcare Foundation, that emergency room patients in this state must wait before being admitted to a hospital as an inpatient.

One of the promised benefits of the Af fordable Care Act was that it would reduce such agonizingly long emergency room waits by expanding the federal-state Medicaid program — known in this state as MediCal — and providing the low-income uninsured access to primary care.

But it hasn't turned out that way. A recent survey by the American College of Emergency Physicians suggests that President Obama's health care “reform” actually has had a deleterious effect on the nation's emergency rooms.

Indeed, nearly half of emergency physicians surveyed by ACEP reported a rise in ER visits since Jan. 1, when expanded Medicaid coverage under Obamacare took effect. More ER visits mean more crowded waiting rooms.

Defenders of the Affordable Care Act suggest it is “a work in progress,” as House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-San Francisco, described the law last month. They are persuaded that Obamacare's unintended consequences will be corrected, including, presumably, increasingly crowded emergency rooms.

However, nearly nine of 10 surveyed emergency physicians expect emergency visits to further increase over the next three years. And more than three-quarters told ACEP that they fret their ERs are inadequately prepared for significant increases.

“Many physicians do not accept Medicaid patients,” explained Dr. Alex Rosenau, ACEP president, “because Medicaid pays so low.” So, he said, “(w)hen people can't get appointments with physicians, they will seek care in emergency departments.”

States like California that expanded Medicaid under Obamacare saw the biggest increases in the volume of Medicaid emergency patients, according to ACEP. That's the last thing California needed, with the lowest number of emergency rooms per capita of all the states.

Dr. Rosenau's group urges Congress to hold hearings to address the unintended consequences Obamacare has had on the nation's emergency rooms. We'd certainly like to hear how Rep. Pelosi would ease overcrowding and shorten wait times.

Dear Editor,

Congress must act now for our veterans. The Veterans Affairs recent scandal has excited veterans organizations all across the country demanding resolve of the atrocities noted in that scandal for poor leadership and mismanagement of VA medical centers nationwide.

Investigative reports continue to show there is more then meets the eye.

Deaths of veterans waiting for medical attention for months on end.

Illnesses that have worsened due to lack of attention. Our Congress, Senate and President Obama are on the bandwagon wanting answers.

Why did they not take action many years ago when they received complaints from veterans? It was known well over a decade ago about mistreatment.

Those complaints fell upon unhearing ears, now we have needless deaths that could have been prevented and illnesses that could have been better treated. America has some of the finest medical resources in the world, but to put those resources to work for our veterans cost dollars, is it cheaper to bury a veteran

Lung nodules not always signs of cancer

DEAR DOCTOR K: I saw my doctor because I've been getting short of breath. He did an X-ray and CT scan that found three small “pulmonary nodules.” Do I have lung cancer?

DEAR READER: There are few things more frustrating, for both you and your doctor, than when the doctor says: “Well, it's almost surely nothing to worry about ... but there is a small possibility that it's bad.” How often does that happen? Pretty much every day, in my experience.

The tests we have available today — particularly imaging tests — are much better at spotting possible problems than the tests available when I was in medical school. But how good are they at giving you a clear answer to the simple question: “Do I have something to worry about, doctor?”

Not very good at all.

Pulmonary nodules are a good example. The term nodule usually describes a small rounded growth or lump. Nodules can be a sign of cancer.

But more often they are

ASK DR. K UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

benign (noncancerous) growths.

Pulmonary nodules are found in the lung and have several possible causes. These include: • Lung infections, including infections that occurred years or decades ago.

• Exposure to lung irritants, such as coal dust or silica.

• Abnormal blood vessels.

• Minor abnormalities that have been present since birth.

• Inflammatory conditions.

• Lung cancer.

• Cancer that started in another organ and spread to the lung.

To determine what caused

your nodules, your doctor will perform a thorough evaluation. This usually starts with your medical history. For example, a small lung nodule in a healthy 40-year-old who quit smoking 15 years ago is probably benign. On the other hand, several large nodules in a woman with breast cancer could mean the cancer has spread.

Next, your doctor will review your X-rays. Certain characteristics may make the nodules appear more or less worrisome. For example, a smooth growth that's surrounded by calcium (which appears white on an X-ray) is almost always left over from an old infection.

If a nodule is found on a regular X-ray, a doctor will likely order a computed tomography (CT) scan, as yours did. Newer types of tests, such as positron emission tomography (PET) scans, can provide additional information to help your doctor determine what caused your nodule. These additional tests are definitely superior to the standard X-ray in telling you

there's nothing to worry about. But they're not perfect.

If your doctor believes your nodule is benign, he or she may recommend a repeat Xray or scan in three to six months. At that time, your doctor will check whether the nodule has grown. If the nodule remains the same size, this is usually reassuring.

If your nodule looks suspicious or grows over time, you may need a biopsy. A small piece of the nodule will be removed and examined in a laboratory. That is the best way of knowing what you are dealing with. But it's a procedure you have to go through, and it's not as simple as a scan. Someday, scans will be so accurate that you won't have to go through a biopsy.

New Mexico now. When/if the monsoon arrives, timing will become more critical.

The quantity of seeds in the lawn may be diminished somewhat (not totally eliminated) by dragging burlap or old carpet through the lawn area.

These fabric materials should collect some of the weed seeds and may be burned or disposed of away

from the lawn. Any seeds that have already germinated will need to be pulled manually before they blossom and for m seeds.

Residual seeds that are not collected by the fabric, but are dor mant and do not germinate this year may create problems in future years. So, you will need to watch for seedlings and treat for several years. The potential for future infestations will diminish yearly if you allow no puncture vine plants to develop to the point of producing new seeds.

I hope the corn gluten meal works for you. As I said, I could find no listing

of puncture vine as one of the targeted weeds. The general statement that said it was for controlling most lawn weeds, and the fact that its mode of action is to kill the roots of germinating seeds, this product is a possible answer to your problem. Other, synthetic, preemergent herbicides are labeled for this purpose if the corn gluten meal fails, but most of these products do not meet your “nontoxic” criteria. The manual removal of the puncture vine seeds with fabric or carpet remnants may not meet the criterion of safety.

Getting rid of those nasty goathead seeds in your yard

Q. I have millions of goathead seeds in my yard. I am looking for a safe, nontoxic method of removal.

What would you recommend?

A. A product called corn gluten meal is a natural (made from corn) preemergent herbicide. It kills the roots of seeds as the seeds are germinating. It is not selective, so it will kill seeds you intentionally plant as well as weeds.

You can use it around transplants in the vegetable and flower garden because their roots are already formed. It will just inhibit root development in germinating seeds.

In Hill testimony, Hagel defends Bergdahl trade WASHINGTON (AP) — Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel delivered an aggressive defense Wednesday of the secret prisoner exchange of five Taliban detainees for a U.S. soldier, telling Congress that the risks were too great and the situation too uncertain for the administration to tell lawmakers about the plan.

In a nearly five-hour Capitol Hill hearing that was at times contentious, House members accused Hagel and the White House of not trusting them enough to follow the law and fill them in on the decision to exchange Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl for five detainees at the U.S. facility at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

An equally combative Hagel said the deal provided “the best possibility that we had to get him out, and we were concerned we might lose it.”

He said officials discussed

the law requiring that Congress get a 30-day notice of detainee exchanges but said the Justice Department told them that in such extreme circumstances President Barack Obama had the constitutional authority to forego the notice.

The Justice Department declined to comment on advice it gave the White House.

The first Obama administration official to testify about the prisoner swap, Hagel acknowledged up front that the matter could have been handled better.

But he offered no apology for keeping Congress in the dark, insisting that Qatari officials negotiating the swap between the U.S. and the Taliban made it clear that “time was not on our side.”

U.S. officials said last week that intelligence suggested that the captors might have killed Bergdahl if word of the swap leaked

out.

Calling the operation an “extraordinary situation,” Hagel said there were concer ns about Bergdahl’s health and safety, the lastminute arrangements over where to pick up the soldier and persistent fears the Taliban may have been negotiating in bad faith.

He said the deal only came together in the final 96 hours, and that the commandos sent to retrieve Bergdahl only knew the exact location an hour before the exchange.

“As the opportunity to obtain Sgt. Bergdahl’s release became clear, we grew increasingly concerned that any delay or any leaks could derail a deal and further endanger Sergeant Bergdahl,” Hagel told the House Ar med Services Committee. “We were told by the Qataris that a leak, any kind of leak, would end the negotiation for Bergdahl’s release.”

In this combination of Associated Press photos, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, RVa., left, and Dave Brat, right, react after the polls close Tuesday, in Richmond, Va.

Big changes coming to GOP leadership after Cantor loss WASHINGTON (AP) — Repudiated at the polls, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor announced Wednesday that he will resign his leadership post at the end of next month, clearing the way for a potentially disruptive Republican shake-up just before midterm elections with control of Congress at stake.

Cantor informed fellow Republicans of his intentions at an emotional closed-door meeting, then made his public announcement at a news conference where he appeared upbeat, all less than 24 hours after losing Virginia’s GOP primary

election to David Brat, a little-known and underfunded rival backed by tea party groups.

Lawmakers in both parties said Cantor’s defeat and the prospect of a change within the Republican high command probably signal the demise of immigration legislation along the lines President Barack Obama is seeking and will also have a negative impact on the balance of his secondterm agenda.

Even so, Obama disputed the notion that Cantor’s surprise loss crushed the prospects of House Republican leaders bringing an immigration

bill to the floor this year.

Addressing Democratic donors in Massachusetts, Obama rejected what he called “conventional wisdom” proffered by Washington pundits.

“I fundamentally reject that and I will tell the speaker of the House he needs to reject it,” Obama said.

Cantor also has been deeply involved in GOP attempts to develop an alternative to the health care law that Republicans want to repeal.

Fellow Republicans set leadership elections for June 19, assuring that any campaigning would be brief.

GROUPS ALLEGE ABUSE OF CHILD IMMIGRANTS AT BORDER

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Unaccompanied children arrested by U.S. border authorities are packed in frigid cells and sleep on hard floors without enough food or medical care, advocacy groups said in a complaint Wednesday that alleges widespread abuses amid a surge of illegal crossings by young immigrants from strife-torn Central American countries.

The Esperanza Immigrant Rights Project and four other groups produced 116 allegations of abuse of children who were in Customs and Border Protection custody.

They said more than 80 percent received inadequate food and water, about half were denied medical care, and about one of every four was physically abused.

A 13-year-old boy said he was threatened by an official with a metal rod and was later sexually molested while in custody, a 14-year-old girl reported her asthma inhaler was confiscated, and a 14year-old boy was unable to sleep for five days because the lights were always on. A 16-year-old boy said an official told him, “You are in my country now, and we are going to bury you in a hole.”

The allegations described in the administrative complaint to the Department of Homeland Security were based on interviews with the children from around March to May. The complaint doesn’t provide dates of the alleged abuse, but

authors said much of it occurred over the last year. The locations are not listed because, the authors said, the children were frequently shuttled around and didn’t know where they were.

The children were identified only by initials in a 25-page version of the complaint that was made public but the authors said they provided names and other biographical information to the Homeland Security’s inspector general and office civil rights and civil liberties. They urged the department to investigate the complaints, punish any wrongdoing and make its findings public.

Bergdahl Facebook posts show frustration, struggle BOISE, Idaho (AP) — In Facebook posts written before he vanished from his military base in Afghanistan, Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl spoke of his frustration with the world and his desire to change the status quo.

He criticized unnamed military commanders and government leaders and mused about whether it was the place of the artist, the soldier or the general to stop violence and “change the minds of fools.”

In his personal writings, he seemed to focus his frustrations on himself and his struggle to maintain his mental stability.

Together, the writings paint a portrait of a young man who was dealing with two conflicts — one fought with bullets and bombs outside his compound, the other fought within himself.

Bergdahl’s Facebook page was found

by The Associated Press Wednesday,

and it was suspended by Facebook for a violation of its terms a short time later. Bergdahl opened the page under the name “Wandering Monk.” His last post was made May 22, 2009, a few weeks before he was taken prisoner.

About two and half weeks after his last Facebook post, Bergdahl sent a partially coded email to Kim Harrison, a longtime friend, suggesting he had concerns about his privacy and so couldn’t share his plans.

Harrison shared that email and other personal writings of Bergdahl with the Washington Post because she said she’s concerned about the way he’s being portrayed, as a calculating deserter.

Two weeks after the coded email, Bergdahl vanished from his base. A box containing his journal, laptop computer and other items arrived at Harrison’s home several days after that.

OIL BOOM PRODUCES JOBS BONANZA FOR ARCHAEOLOGISTS

TIOGA, N.D. (AP) — Drilling crews are eager to plunge their equipment into the ground. Road builders are ready to start highway projects, and construction workers need to dig.

But across the hyperactive oil fields of North Dakota, these and other groups have to wait for another team of specialists known for slow, meticulous study: archaeologists.

They are the experts who must survey the land before a single spade of dirt can be turned, a requirement that has produced a rare jobs bonanza in a field that forces many highly educated professionals to hop from project to project around the world and still struggle to make a living.

Without the oil boom, a lot of young archaeologists might “never get the experience,” said T im Dodson, who endured a long job search before finding work overseas and later coming to North Dakota.

The positions also come with a constant tension: The archaeologists are trained to find evidence of the past, but the companies that pay them would prefer not to turn up anything that gets in the way of profits.

Archaeological surveys are intended to protect any historical treasures that might lie buried atop the region’s oil and natural gas deposits. Although not required on all oil projects, they are a mandate for most federal drilling permits.

The work involves inspecting a site for any artifacts or evidence of past human habitation and cataloging the effort. If significant discoveries emerge, most oil companies will change plans to avoid the hassle of drilling in a sensitive area.

Long before the oil boom, previous archaeological digs uncovered a nearly complete duck-billed dinosaur fossil with skin, bones and tendons preserved in sandstone. Other excavations have focused on old trading posts, military forts and battlefields, according to the State Historical Society of North Dakota.

OBITUARIES

Martha Hyer, Oscar-nominated actress, dies ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Martha Hyer, an Oscar nominated actress who starred alongside the likes of Frank Sinatra and Humphrey Bogart, and later gained notoriety for her extravagant lifestyle, has died.

Hyer passed away May 31 in Santa Fe, Raymond Lucero of Rivera Funeral Home told The Associated Press. She was 89.

Born in Fort Worth, Texas, the easygoing actress began her movie career with a small role in the 1946 movie “The Locket,” but she got her big break in the 1954 comedy “Sabrina,” starring Bogart and Audrey Hepburn. In that movie, she played the fiancee of a character played by William Holden.

Hyer would later write in her memoir that Bogart was helpful in scenes with her.

Hyer would later say that loss devastated her.

After the Oscar nod, Hyer would star in a number of American and foreign films that garnered little attention. But she gain notice for her expensive taste thanks to a 1959 Life magazine photo feature highlighting her Pissarro painting and showing her getting a massage dressed only in a towel. By the 1980s, Hyer found herself millions of dollars in debt to loan sharks.

In 1966, she married film producer Hal Wallis, who took her to New Mexico for the first time during the filming of “Red Sky at Morning.” Hyer remained married to him until his death in 1986 and moved to Santa Fe shortly after.

“This country casts a spell, and it never lets go,” she would later write about New Mexico.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) #### You might feel that a partner is overly assertive at present. Understand that you are more than capable of handling this person’s energy right now. You need to be more aware of how much you are spending. Fatigue could mark an interaction. Tonight: Too much to juggle.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) ##### You will have the best intentions, but somehow you’ll get stuck in a difficult or awkward interaction. A discussion about money could get out of hand, and you might want to drown your sorrows in some wild spending. Say “no.” Tonight: Try to keep a lid on a volatile situation.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) #### You will be out of control, swinging from one wild situation to another.

Today’s Full Moon might bring chaos into a relationship.

Know when enough is enough. You could be causing yourself a problem if you continue with a heated discussion. Tonight: Accept an offer.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) #### Pace yourself, and do what you must. Your emotions might make you feel as if you can’t reach a resolution. If you tap into your logical side, others will think that you make sense; however, they still might head in a different direction. Tonight: Get some much-needed rest.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) #### Your imagination takes a different stance on what is being discussed. You could have difficulty following through on a key task because your mind is elsewhere. A sticky situation involving your personal life might not be resolved easily. Tonight: Play the night away.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) #### You will need to anchor in and work through a problem involving a misunderstanding. Be aware that others are likely to overreact.

A DIFFERENT LOOK For a closer look at Pinehurst No. 2 Turn to Page B5 in todayʼs issue

T

he Open starts Thursday, and for anyone who takes a quick look at Pinehurst No. 2, there is sure to be one question.

Just which Open is this?

The fairways are as much brown as they are green, mainly along the edges. They are running so fast that some players are hitting iron off the tee on par 4s that measure more than 500 yards. The sandy areas along the fairway appear to be dunes.

It all makes this look more like a British Open.

The U.S. Open is notorious for tight fairways and thick rough. Pinehurst has plenty of room off the tee and — get this — no rough.

Bill Coore, who along with Ben

15 named all-staters

Fourteen area baseball players and one area softball player were selected to the 2014 all-state baseball and softball teams.

In baseball, Goddard’s Mitch Weathers, Taryn Nunez, Cal Villareal, Josh Wagner, Adam Brown and Cody French; NMMI’s Ben Morgan, Thomas Haley, Caleb Saiz, Blade Allen and Daniel Zaragoza; and Dexter’s Dominic Lomeli, Jacob Sanchez and Lorenzo Coronado were all-state picks.

First-team honors in 4A went to Nunez (catcher), Villareal (pitcher) and French (outfield).

Weathers (first base), Wagner (pitcher) and Artesia’s Zane Pittam were secondteam picks.

Honorable-mention honors went to Adam Brown (pitcher), and Artesia’s Jharyss Granger (designated hitter) and Kyle Parriera (pitcher).

Piedra Vista’s Matt Martin and Mike McGaha won the top player and coach awards, respectively.

In 2A, first-team honors went to Haley (pitcher), Lomeli (pitcher) and Zaragoza (outfield).

Saiz (shortstop) and Coronado (outfield) were second-team picks.

Honorable-mention honors went to Morgan (first base), Haley (second base), Sanchez (pitcher) and Allen (pitcher and outfield).

Cobre’s Willie Fletcher and Artie Sanchez won the top player and coach awards, respectively.

In softball, Dexter’s Clarissa Chavez was a second-team selection in 1A/2A. Artesia’s Vinnie Olivas was a secondteam choice in 4A. The NMHSCA North-South All-Star Games for 1A/2A/3A baseball and softball games were played last weekend and seven area players participated.

In baseball, Allen, Haley, Saiz and Zaragoza represented NMMI, while Andrew Meeks and Jacob Moody represented Gateway Christian.

In softball, Chavez represented Dexter in the 1A/2A/3A games. Taylan Halsell represented Artesia in the 4A/5A games.

The 4A/5A baseball games will be played Friday and Saturday in Las Cruces. Wagner, Nunez, French and Weathers will represent Goddard.

LOCAL SCHEDULE — THURSDAY, JUNE 12 — • Roswell at Alpine, 7 p.m.

Crenshaw was in charge of the restoration project at this Donald Ross masterpiece, can only imagine the conversations.

“What’s all this brown about?

What’s all this sand? What’s all this native grass about?” Coore said. “People could look at this on television and go, ‘Oh my God, Pinehurst quit maintaining the course.”’

What hasn’t changed is the U.S. Open reputation as the toughest test in golf.

No one expects anything less.

PINEHURST, N.C. (AP) — Some of the names at the U.S. Open sound a little different.

They are among thousands of plants thriving at Pinehurst No. 2 after a 2011 restoration project to

the course’s natural look from more than a half-century ago. Yet those areas of natural growth also have plenty of what most people would call weeds in an unkempt yard.

This is not the typical pristine look of a course hosting a major championship. Pinehurst looks a

lot rougher than the last time the U.S. Open came here in 2005.

“It is what they want to call undergrowth,” said Curtis Strange, a two-time U.S. Open champion and ESPN analyst. “I call it weeds. It is everything that See WEEDS, Page B2

Rangers beat Kings 2-1 to stay alive STANLEY CUP FINALS

NEW YORK (AP) — The champagne the Los Angeles Kings had ready for a coronation stayed in boxes. The New York Rangers suddenly have some life in the Stanley Cup finals.

Henrik Lundqvist made 40 saves and had the Madison Square Garden crowd chanting his name in the Rangers’ 2-1 victory in Game 4 that kept the Los Angeles Kings from sweeping them on Wednesday night.

Benoit Pouliot and Martin St. Louis each scored for the Rangers, who kept the Kings at bay. Los Angeles leads the series 3-1 and will get its second shot to claim the Cup for the second time in three years Friday night at home.

Los Angeles hoped to become the first team since 1998 to complete a sweep in the finals. Now the Rangers will try to become the second team to erase a 3-0 hole in the finals and go on to win the Cup. The Kings had that kind of comeback in the first round against San Jose.

“It’s not impossible,” Lundqvist said.

“They’ve done it.”

SAO PAULO (AP) — American fans decked out in red, white and blue watched their team’s lone public training session in Brazil, cheering and seeking autographs.

Jurgen Klinsmann maintains they shouldn’t expect the U.S. to lift soccer’s top trophy for the first time July 13, even if that stance upsets some.

“I think for us now, talking about winning a World Cup is just not realistic,” the American coach said Wednesday during his first news conference in Brazil

“First, we’ve got to make it through the group. So let’s stay with our feet on the ground and say let’s get that group first done, and then the sky is the limit.”

Florida assistant Phillips resigns; Leak steps in

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Florida receivers coach Joker Phillips has resigned, prompting coach Will Muschamp to turn the job over to former Gators standout quarterback Chris Leak.

Leak will coach receivers for the 2014 season.

Phillips said in a statement Wednesday that he stepped down for “personal reasons.”

“I’m thankful for the opportunity that the University of Florida and Will Muschamp provided to me and my family, but at this time I have decided to step down from my position on the UF coaching staff for personal reasons,” Phillips said.

Phillips joined the Florida staff in December 2012 and spent one year coaching Florida’s receivers. Prior to that, he was Kentucky’s head coach for three seasons (2010-12).

“I appreciate Joker’s contributions to our program and wish him and his wife, Leslie, nothing but the best in the future,” Muschamp said.

Leak, who captained Florida’s national championship team in 2006, ended his career as the school’s all-time leader in passing yards (11,213), completions (895) and attempts (1,458). He joined Muschamp’s staff last May and served as a graduate assistant last season.

“I appreciate the opportunity that coach Muschamp has given me and my family,” Leak said. “It’s an honor to be coaching at my alma mater, where I have so many fond memories both on and off the field. We have a tremendous coaching staff, a great group of players and a support system in place, and I’m excited to be a part of it.”

Phillips is the third offensive assistant to leave after last season’s 4-8 finish, the program’s first losing season since 1979.

Offensive coordinator Brent Pease and offensive line coach Tim Davis were fired, replaced by former Duke offensive coordinator Kurt Roper and former USC offensive line coach Mike Summers.

St. Louis football stadium running out of money

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The indoor football stadium that the St. Louis Rams call home is running out of money as the NFL’s team long-term future in the city remains murky.

The publicly-funded Edward Jones Dome anticipates needing an extra $40 million to cover maintenance over the next 15 years, the St. Louis Post -Dispatch reported Wednesday. The St. Louis Regional Convention and Sports Complex Authority, which owns the downtown dome, expects to exhaust its $16 million in savings in six years.

The dome receives a total of $24 million annually from the city of St. Louis, St. Louis

you have seen in the worst- kept lawn you’ve ever seen in your life.

“It is dandelions growing up 12 to 15 inches, it’s low growing weeds, and in some cases it’s actually difficult to find the golf ball.”

Well, that depends on where it lands.

The natural areas have replaced the thick green swaths of high grass typically surrounding the fairways and greens. In some spots, the rough is little more than sandy patches scattered between pine needles or leaves with a few ankle-deep weeds on level terrain.

In others, the ball will vanish in lurking grassy clumps or among plants growing hip-high.

SCOREBOARD

County and the state of Missouri for maintenance and to pay off construction debt , but those payments are scheduled to cease over the next decade.

And the stadium’s future remains in limbo as lease negotiations between St. Louis Rams owner Stan Kroenke and the stadium authority drag on. The Rams can break their 30-year lease after the upcoming season, which would be a decade early.

Brian McMurtry, the authority’s executive director, is asking the three governments to not only continue providing at least $4 million for annual upkeep payments but to also consider sending the dome an additional $40 million in cash, or selling $40 million in new bonds. He’s also suggested putting several stadium-related items on the city’s bond issue list for a public vote as early as this November.

“This golf course at Pinehurst, you have more chances for rub of the green, good and bad then maybe any other Open,” Joe Ogilvie said Wednesday on the driving range. “The element of chance is at the forefront here, and I think guys will embrace it.”

Carley said that most of the course’s 75 identified plant species are native to the region.

That makes them easier to grow, while having natural areas means Pinehurst Resort officials use less water than they would to make grass grow thick and high in the rough.

Carley is hoping that that Pinehurst’s changes will stand out this weekend and during the U.S. Women’s Open next week.

“We hope that everybody will see these practices can really enhance the look of a course — the sustainability element, the economics, but really start to educate people that these aren’t weeds,” Carley said. “Some of

Twice Los Angeles put the puck on the goal line, but couldn’t get it all the way across. The last came with 1:11 left in the game when Rangers forward Derek Stepan pushed the puck out of danger in the crease after it got behind Lundqvist.

Pouliot scored 7:25 into the first period and St. Louis added a goal in the second for the Rangers.

New York squandered multiple two-goal advantages in losing the first two games in overtime in Los Angeles.

chances of winning the title at 250-1, up from 60-1 before December’s draw.

“I’ll be at the Natal game. I’ll be in Manaus. And I’ll also be in Recife — and, hopefully, the next stage,” Liliana Ayalde, the U.S. ambassador to Brazil, said after the almost two-hour training session.

Klinsmann won the 1990 World Cup as a player for West Germany and coached Germany to the 2006 semifinals. He caused a stir last weekend when he was quoted by The New York Times Magazine as saying in a December interview “we cannot win this World Cup, because we are not at that level yet.” Klinsmann, who has lived in Orange Country, California, for most of the last 16 years, was accused by some commentators of having an un-American mentality.

“If it’s now American or not American, I don’t know,” he said.

Not this time.

Lundqvist and the Rangers continued their mastery of extending their seasons. New York is 11-2 in the past 13 games when facing elimination, and Lundqvist was in goal for all of them.

The Rangers also have won an NHL-record eight consecutive home games when facing elimination, dating to 2008, behind Lundqvist.

New York has also won a home game in 15 consecutive playoff series, tying a league mark.

The Kings pressed for the tying goal in the third period and outshot the Rangers 15-1 in the frame

they will approve the sale.

Court filings Wednesday indicated the NBA has set a hard deadline of Sept. 15. If the sale isn’t completed then, the league will undertake proceedings to seize and sell the team on its own.

Donald Sterling’s lawyer, Bobby Samini, left the courthouse without comment after a clerk announced the trial schedule. Neither Sterling was present.

The crux of the case will center on the question of whether the 80-year-old Donald Sterling is mentally competent to be a co-trustee of The Sterling Family Trust, which gives him the authority to determine the team’s future. According to the trust’s terms, he can be ruled “mentally incapacitated” after being evaluated by two doctors, said Pierce O’Donnell, Shelly Sterling’s attorney.

Shelly Sterling activated that clause in negotiating what would be a record-breaking deal with Ballmer as sole trustee. But Donald Sterling challenged the removal in a letter sent Monday to his wife’s attorney said “any attempt to remove me as a Trustee of the Sterling Trust is invalid and illegal. Further more, any assertion that I am ‘incapacitated’... is false and without merit.”

Texans, Broncos to hold joint practices in August

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Jadeveon Clowney and J.J. Watt get to chase Peyton Manning around for a few days at practice this August, not that fans will get to watch in person.

The Denver Broncos and Houston Texans will conduct three joint training camp practices in Colorado leading up to their Aug. 23 preseason game at Sports Authority Field. They will practice together Aug. 1921 at the Dove Valley training headquarters.

Because of a $35 million construction project of an indoor practice facility, the Broncos aren’t allowing fans to view their workouts this summer for safety reasons. They can watch three practices at their stadium, all of which will take place before the Texans’ visit.

It’s the first time the Broncos will have hosted another team at the Dove Valley facility since practicing with the Dallas Cowboys in the 2008 preseason.

The Texans and Broncos last held joint practices in 2003 and 2005 in Houston.

“It’s always good to do that when you can, to practice with another team, especially after a couple of weeks of camp. You’re seeing the same things from your offense and they’re seeing the same things from us. So, it can be a good change-up,” Denver defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio said.

“And it can be very beneficial as long as both teams come to work with the idea that you’re going to practice and not spend the day being chippy.”

“You can correct me however you want.”

Mix Diskerud, the 23-year-old midfielder with a Norwegian father and Arizonan mother, took Klinsmann’s remarks as a challenge.

“That’s an opportunity for us to prove him wrong,” he said.

Midfielder Alejandro Bedoya thought it was a meaningless debate, but he does feel the Americans are dismissed by the soccer cognoscenti.

“People still have around the world a little bit of a prejudice maybe or something that America is still growing in the soccer world,” Bedoya said. “They still poke fun maybe that we call it soccer and not football.”

Only eight nations have won the World Cup, all from Europe and South America. Brazil has a record five titles, followed by Italy (four), Germany (three), Argentina and Uruguay (two each), and

and 41-19 overall.

“I think we sat back a little too much in the third period. But we didn’t blow the lead this time,” Stepan said.

Two nights after Jonathan Quick stopped 32 shots in a 3-0 victory that put the Kings on the brink of another championship, Pouliot got a puck past him.

St. Louis then put in a rebound at the left post 6:27 into the second, giving the Rangers their fifth two-goal lead of the series.

But just like in Games 1 and 2, a two-goal deficit sparked the Kings.

Trial will determine if Sterling properly ousted LOS ANGELES (AP) — A trial will be held next month to deter mine whether Donald Sterling, who opposes his estranged wife’s planned sale of the Los Angeles Clippers, was properly removed as an administrator for the family trust that owns the team.

A probate court judge in Los Angeles Wednesday denied Shelly Sterling’s urgent request to confirm her authority as sole administrator of The Sterling Family Trust so that she can unilaterally proceed with a $2 billion sale of the team to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. Instead, the judge agreed to an expedited hearing because of looming sales deadlines.

The development is the latest in a legal tug-of-war following the NBA’s decision to ban Donald Sterling for life after racist remarks to a girlfriend were recorded and publicized.

Donald Sterling is fighting the decision and suing the league for $1 billion.

The league has contended the comments were bad for business and damaged both the Clippers and the NBA. The four-day trial was granted exceptionally quickly and will begin July 7. The deadline for the sale is July 15, which also is the date the NBA’s owners hope to vote on whether

“You come here obviously with that dream in the back of your mind. Let’s not be silly. At the same time you have to be realistic and understand there are some teams that maybe are a bit more favored than we are obviously to win the tournament.”

The Americans enter ranked 13th, nine below their record high in April 2006. Their best World Cup finish was at the first tournament, when they reached the semifinals in 1930.

This is the seventh straight World Cup appearance for the Americans, who failed to qualify from 1950-90.

“I think we are every year making another step forward,” Klinsmann said. “We always now approach games where we say we don’t look at ourselves as an underdog, even if a lot of people want to put us as the underdog.

In this very difficult group, we’re not. We’re going to go in there and take the game to Ghana and they will take it to us, and then we’ll go back and forth and hopefully the people see an exciting game and us as a winner at the end of the day. And then we go from there.”

York hadn’t scored since Derick Brassard’s secondperiod goal in Game 2.

Pouliot’s fifth goal of the playoffs came 2 seconds after Kings defenseman Willie Mitchell finished serving a high-sticking penalty.

John Moore fired a drive from the center of the blue line that Pouliot deflected high with his stick blade into the top right corner behind Quick, who finished with xx saves.

The Kings almost tied it at 1-1 with 8:11 left — seconds into a power play — when defenseman Alec Martinez’s shot got behind Lundqvist and slid along the red goal line without

crossing it. Rangers defenseman Anton Stralman cleared the puck away as Jeff Carter and Marian Gaborik pressured in the crease.

Video r eplay clearly showed that the puck didn’t go over the line.

Madison Square Garden had a different feel than the festive atmosphere of Game 3 when the Rangers returned home from Los Angeles. There were no tshirts draped over the seats, and some of the seats in prime-viewing areas were empty. But as the Rangers started to score, the crowd slowly came alive, roaring in approval.

Heat turn to tape to make fixes

MIAMI (AP) — LeBron James has learned an important lesson during his journey from 19-yearold rookie to two-time NBA champion: Never talk back to the coach during a film session.

“Let him make his point, whether he’s right or wrong, and you live with it and move on,” James said.

Especially when the coach has as much to show his players as Erik Spoelstra did to James and the Miami Heat on Wednesday.

Miami’s defense didn’t offer much resistance early in Game 3 of the NBA Finals; the San Antonio Spurs played like they were on the court by themselves. San Antonio made 19 of its first 21 shots and shot a finals-record 75.8 percent in the first half of a 111-92 victory.

Just like last year, Game 3 was a blowout that left the Heat facing a 2-1 deficit. Miami came back to win the series, so nobody was overreacting to what happened Tuesday, especially since the Spurs themselves don’t expect to shoot that way again. But the Heat have things to clean up before Game 4 on Thursday, or they risk going back to San Antonio facing the end of their title reign.

“You’re always on edge in the postseason, but I don’t want to be concerned at this point,” James said. “For us, we have to make the adjustments.”

The Spurs had the same lead last year after a 113-77 victory in Game 3, a start-to-finish beating that was even more thorough

than Tuesday’s win. So they were taking no satisfaction in their position, and certainly not comparing it.

“I don’t think about last year at all at this point,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “I don’t think about last year Game 3, Game 4, at all. This is a different animal and I’m just concerned about the game tomorrow night.”

The bigger concerns belong to the Heat, whose defense was also sliced up by the Spurs in the fourth quarter of Game 1. So Spoelstra gathered his team to look at the painful tape of Tuesday’s performance, which featured among its problems: —Chris Bosh getting only four shot attempts after scoring 18 points in Games 1 and 2.

—James trying to do too much to rally the Heat and ending up with seven of their 20 turnovers.

—Mario Chalmers missing all five shots and falling to 3 for 12 in the finals.

“We did not play a good basketball game,” Spoelstra said. “All of us have owned that. It doesn’t matter ultimately how many you lose by or what the game is like.

You have to learn from it, move on.”

Spoelstra said watching themselves get clobbered on tape was “painful” and “frustrating,” but necessary. He wouldn’t reveal what he told his players, but whatever it was, James wouldn’t have argued. That’s a lesson he said he learned “quite a few years ago, when you realize that it wouldn’t change anything.”

Shop New Mexico

“You know, the coach is always right,” James added. “It’s like a teacher. They’re always right, and that’s fine. That’s fair. They make the rules and we’ve got to live by them.”

Spoelstra’s process suits the Heat, who have won 13 straight postseason games following a loss. They followed last year’s Game 3 no-show with a rout of their own to swing the series back in their favor, and are confident they can make corrections before Thursday.

But the Spurs, who didn’t think they played that well in the first two games, have shown that not even the respected Miami defense can stop them when they execute the way they did Tuesday.

“We finally put a game together for not the full 48, but for as long as we could, where we did exactly what we planned to do and executed in that respect,” Tim Duncan said, “and that’s what we’re going to need again.”

No team has overcome a 3-1 deficit in the NBA Finals, and a victory Thursday would guarantee the Spurs two chances to win the series on their home floor, starting with Game 5 on Sunday.

Dwyane Wade said the Heat aren’t thinking that far ahead.

“We’re an in-the-moment team,” he said. “And right now in the moment is the day after a loss, getting better mentally, physically and then coming into tomorrow and playing the game of basketball here on our home floor and trying to win Game 4. That is all we focus on.”

“Over par wins,” Blixt said, and he kept right on walking.

Weather usually dictates scoring in the U.S. Open. Rory McIlroy shattered records at rainsoftened Congressional three years ago at 16-under 268 to win by eight. He is a U.S. Open champion who still feels as though he has something to prove in golf’s second-oldest championship.

“I haven’t won a tournament whenever it’s been like this,” he said of the hot, crispy conditions. “That’s why I’m relishing the challenge. It’s conditions that I haven’t won in before and

I’d love to be able to prove to myself, prove to other people, that I can win in different conditions. It’s a great opportunity to do that this week.”

Thunderstorms are likely to pop up in the heat of the afternoon. Even so, Pinehurst already has proven to be a beast under any circumstances. In the previous two U.S. Opens here, only Payne Stewart finished under par at 1-under 279 in 1999.

Michael Campbell won at even par in 2005.

USGA executive director Mike Davis has been beaming all week, mostly at the tinge of brown across what used to be emerald Pinehurst.

“We are really ready right now,” Davis said Wednesday.

“This is exactly where you want it. You’re not always lucky to get it this way going into every National Open Championship.

But we’ve got it this year.”

The perception is the U.S. Open wants a winning score at about even par. Davis swears that isn’t the case. Earlier in the week, he said the USGA could set up the golf course so that 15-over par would be the winning score.

“You could make these things unplayable,” he said. “We don’t want to do that.”

Still, he left little doubt that something around par would go a long way. The last two U.S. Open champions finished at 1over par — Webb Simpson at Olympic Club, Justin Rose at Merion. The last time three straight U.S. Opens had a winning score over par was from 1957-59.

“What the winning score is?

I’m not a good guesser at that, partly because I never know what the weather is going to give us,” he said. “But I will tell

Thursday, June 12, 2014 you, if we don’t get any rain from here on out, this is going to be a tough test.”

For all the talk about brown, the character of Pinehurst No. 2 always has been the greens.

They often are described as turtle backs or inverted saucers.

Masters champion Bubba Watson of fered a dif ferent description.

“It’s going to be tough for me just because the greens are so unfriendly, I guess is the best way to say it,” Watson said.

Unfriendly meaning unfair?

“No, they’re going to be fair to somebody,” he said. “The top 10 this week are going to be happy with them. The guy winding up holding the trophy is going to be happy.”

The course measures 7,562 yards, extremely long for a par 70. There are six holes over 500 yards, and only two of them par 5s. Davis, however, said the

B5

course will never play as long as the scorecard because of tees moving forward over the next four days.

“It is unusual,” McIlroy said.

“You think of a U.S. Open and you think of tight fairways, you think of thick rough. You used to miss the green in a U.S. Open by 3 or 4 yards and you’re having to hack out of cabbage. But now ... you’ve got so many different ways to play. You’re going to have to be imaginative.”

Only nine of the 156 players in the field were at Pinehurst for the 1999 and 2005 championships. That experience won’t help all that much now. Jason Day had never seen Pinehurst until recently, so this is all he knows.

“I think it’s going to be a very difficult course,” he said. “And I think it’s going to be a good challenge for all of us.”

MLB: Darvish wins with his first MLB complete game ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Yu Darvish pitched his first complete game in the majors, Shin-Soo Choo broke a long hitless streak with a three-run double and the Texas Rangers denied Miami’s bid for a record interleague winning streak, beating the Marlins 6-0 on Wednesday night.

Darvish (7-2) struck out the side in the eighth to end a streak of one baserunner in each of the first seven innings for the Marlins. The Japanese ace finished his 73rd career start with his 10th strikeout, getting Garrett Jones swinging to complete a sixhitter.

The Marlins had to settle for tying the New York Yankees (2003-04) and Tampa Bay (2004) for the longest interleague winning streak at 13 games. It was Miami’s first interleague loss since Aug. 12 at Kansas City.

Jacob Tur ner (2-4) was the loser.

Reds 5, Dodgers 0 CINCINNATI (AP) — Johnny Cueto matched his career high with 12 strikeouts in six innings, and Joey Votto and Jay Bruce — the missing core of Cincinnati’s batting order much of the season — each drove in runs, leading the Reds past Los Angeles.

Cueto (6-5) followed his shortest start of the season with one of his most dominating. He gave up three singles and didn’t walk a batter, leaving after his 112th pitch. Cueto lasted only five innings during an 8-0 loss to Philadelphia on Friday night.

Jonathan Broxton escaped a bases-loaded, one-out threat in the seventh by getting Hanley Ramirez to ground into a double play.

Votto doubled home a pair of runs off Hyun-Jin Ryu (7-3), who had won his last four starts.

Orioles 6, Red Sox 0 BALTIMORE (AP) — Wei-Yin Chen allowed four hits over seven innings, Chris Davis homered and Baltimore beat struggling Boston at soggy Camden Yards.

Nick Hundley had two hits and an RBI for the Orioles, who yielded only one run in winning two of three from the defending World Series champions.

Chen (7-2) did not return after rain delayed the game for 1 hour, 38 minutes in the middle of the seventh. The Taiwanese left-hander had a season-high seven strikeouts, walked none and was aided by three double plays.

Rubby De La Rosa (1-2) needed

Rays 6, Cardinals 3 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Desmond Jennings had a tworun single in a four -run fourth inning and Tampa Bay snapped a club-record 31-inning scoring drought in a victory over St. Louis.

Tampa Bay won for just the second time in 16 games after having been shut out in its previous three contests. The Rays had scored 35 runs over the previous 15 games.

Yadier Molina had two RBIs for the Cardinals, who entered with three consecutive shutout pitching performances. The Rays’ big fourth inning came against Michael Wacha (4-5).

Juan Carlos Oviedo (2-2) went 1 1 ⁄ 3 inning for the win. Grant Balfour threw the final 2 1 ⁄ 3 innings for his 10th save.

Phillies 3, Padres 0 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Reid Brignac hit a three-run homer in the ninth inning to lift Philadelphia past San Diego, giving the Phillies consecutive victories for the first time since a three-game streak May 17-20.

Nick Vincent (0-2) walked Domonic Brown with one out and hit Carlos Ruiz. Brignac then sent a 2-0 pitch into the right-field seats for his first homer with the Phillies and his second walk-off hit in two weeks.

Starters Cole Hamels and Tyson Ross matched zeros, but didn’t get decisions. Hamels struck out a season-high 11 and allowed five hits in eight shutout innings for the Phillies. Ross struck out seven in seven scoreless innings, giving up four hits.

Jonathan Papelbon (2-1) tossed a scoreless ninth for the win.

White Sox 8, Tigers 2 CHICAGO (AP) — Jose Abreu hit an early homer off Justin Verlander, then singled to start a seven-run burst in the sixth inning that sent John Danks and Chicago past Detroit.

Abreu went 3 for 4 with a walk and scored twice. The Cuban rookie has 19 home runs and 50 RBIs this season.

Danks (5-5) allowed two runs and six hits in seven innings to continue his recent turnaround.

Lucroy doubled twice and drove in a run, raising his batting average to .341. Carlos Gomez and Jean Segura each had an RBI as the NL Central leaders wore down Jacob deGrom (0-3).

Peralta (6-5) used a 96-98 mph fastball and nasty slider to hold the punchless Mets to four hits in 6 1 ⁄ 3 innings. New York lost for the seventh time in eight games.

Twins 7, Blue Jays 2 TORONTO (AP) — Josh Willingham hit a two-run home run, and Minnesota’s Phil Hughes struck out a season-high nine to win in Toronto for the first time in almost three years.

Hughes (7-2) allowed seven hits and walked none in seven shutout innings for his first win at Rogers Centre since July 17, 2011, when he played for the New York Yankees. He’s 7-1 with a 2.27 ERA in his past 10 starts.

Royals 4, Indians 1 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Yordano Ventura dominated Cleveland for seven stingy innings, and Kansas City scored all of its runs on sacrifice flies.

The four sacrifice flies tied a franchise record, and the Royals became only the second team to score four runs all on sacrifice flies since it became an official stat in 1954. The Montreal Expos did it in an 8-4, 14-inning loss to the Chicago Cubs on May 28, 1980, according to STATS. Ventura (4-5) allowed six hits while striking out three without a walk to win back-to-back starts for the first time. Trevor Bauer (13) took the loss.

Kansas City has won four straight.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: My girlfriend and I live next to a married couple our age we have befriended. Unfortunately, the husband has been making unwanted advances toward my girlfriend. Being friendly with them both, we have kept it to ourselves so as not to hurt the wife. She’s ill and has been in and out of the hospital.

The husband is approaching my girlfriend saying he needs “stress relief” because his wife is ill. We now feel something needs to be said to the wife, but we still have to live next door to them.

We’re at a loss. What’s the best way to handle this?

HAD ENOUGH IN FLORIDA

DEAR HAD ENOUGH: The next time this man hits on your girlfriend, she should tell him bluntly that it’s not her job to “relieve his stress.” That is his responsibility. She should also tell him if it happens again she’ll tell you AND his wife what he’s up to.

As to being friendly with this couple in the future, FORGET IT. That bridge was burned the first time he stepped out of line.

DEAR ABBY: I have a colleague who’s a drama queen. Perhaps I’m a little bit guilty, too, but “Sharon” talks excessively about her personal life. There’s the boyfriend who doesn’t support her and their 2year-old child financially or emotionally, her mom who suffers from many medical conditions, and her neighbor whose daugh-

COMICS

ter was murdered some months ago. Sharon’s life seems to be a magnet for drama.

My colleagues and I have lent our ears and our shoulders to cry on. I have also tried to advise her (like you do) to no avail. I have now reached my limit. Is there a tactful way to deal with her? We work in proximity at least half the time, so total avoidance is not possible.

INUNDATED IN HAWAII DEAR INUNDATED: If Sharon asks you for advice, tell her you don’t have any more to offer. And if she starts dumping on you, handle it by saying kindly, but firmly, that you need to work and don’t have time to listen. If you say it often enough, Sharon will find someone else to listen. Trust me.

DEAR ABBY: Do you have any advice for fathers who don’t listen to you?

Or fathers who are too protective

and don’t know how to let go?

STARGIRL IN MICHIGAN

Family Circus

DEAR STARGIRL: My advice to fathers would be to form as close a relationship with their daughters as they can while the girls are little. Teenage girls whose fathers are involved in their lives tend to engage in sexual activity at later ages.

However, whether a father is “too protective” may be a question of perspective — the father’s or the daughter’s. I have heard many adults say in retrospect how much they appreciate that their parents were strict. But I have rarely heard the contrary.

FROM HELOISE

KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Heloise: I read your column in the Omaha (Neb.) World-Herald. I recently bought some new cotton bath towels, which I thought were 100 percent cotton. When I used them, I found out that they are not absorbent. I looked at the label and found that they are 100 percent cotton and 100 percent ALGODON. Can you tell me what algodon is, and why they use it? Also, can I do something to the towels to make them absorb moisture?

Janice K. in Nebraska

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

Janice, be assured that the towels you bought are 100 percent cotton. “Algodon” is simply the Spanish word for “cotton,” and you purchased towels with a bilingual label.

Now, how to make them more absorbent? Make certain that when you wash the towels, you do not use fabric softener (liquid or sheets). Fabric softener makes towels absorb less water.

Heloise

Dear Heloise: Someone asked about bringing back the natural color of a leather recliner. We had the exact same problem with a chocolate-brown recliner and couldn’t find any answers. The furniture company had no ideas except to replace the chair, or the footrest — both very expensive alternatives. Finally, I had a flash. Our local shoemaker deals in leather bags and shoes every day. Bet he has an idea! For $10.50, he sold us a bottle of polish, which we rubbed onto the bad place on the chair. Problem solved!

Grayce U., Davie, Fla.

Dear Heloise: When packing for a move, purchase “swim noodles.” Cut one side lengthwise and slip over the frame of large pictures to prevent damage. Then pictures can be stacked on top of each other or side by side with no damage.

Louise M., Waco, Texas Dear Heloise: I put on my eye makeup last thing in the morning. When I am done applying it, I take my powder brush and do one last quick swipe under my eyes. It takes away any loose eye shadow that may have fallen.

S.P., San Angelo, Texas

Dear Heloise: I found a great use for an old, faded denim shoulder bag that I’ve had for a number of years: It is now my clothespin bag. The center section holds all the clothespins, the front pocket holds my sunglasses, and the back pocket holds an old pair of socks that I use to wipe off the lines with. That’s what I call handy!

A.S., Harrisonburg, Va. Dear Heloise: My husband wears black socks all the time. We were having a hard time keeping the pairs matched because they all look so similar. I took out my sewing kit and sewed a few stitches into each, with a designating color for each pair. Now, I can easily match up the socks.
