Shooting site to re-open; FBI reviews manifesto CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — A small group of parishioners was allowed inside the bullet-scarred Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal church on Saturday, getting a firsthand glimpse of the room where nine people from their congregation were slain.

Meanwhile, the FBI said it was investigating a manifesto purportedly written by the suspected gunman, 21-year-old Dylann Roof.

The website linked to Roof contained photos of him holding a burning American flag and standing on one. In other images, he was holding a Confederate flag, considered a divisive symbol by civil rights leaders and others.

The hate-filled 2,500-word essay talks about white supremacy, and the author says “the event that truly awakened me was the Trayvon Martin case” — the unarmed black teenager fatally shot by neighborhood watch volunteer George Zimmerman while walking home in Florida in 2012.

The manifesto said “it was obvious that Zimmerman was in the right” and that the case led him to search “black on White crime” on the Internet.

“I have never been the same since that day,” it said.

It’s unclear whether Roof wrote

the rants, but they are in line with what he has told friends and what he said before allegedly opening fire inside the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal church Wednesday night.

Overcoming adversity: 90 cadets graduate Youth ChalleNGe

Maturity, wisdom and self-control are among the lessons learned by the 28th cycle of cadets who on Saturday graduated from the New Mexico Youth ChalleNGe Academy at a ceremony held in Roswell. Several of the 90-cadet graduates shared their story with the Daily Record and showed what awards they won in addition to their various certificates, as they completed the program designed to help cadets put their past behind them and empower them to fulfill their futures.

Destanie Weaghington received two prestigious awards for her success during the academy, which according to its website is designed for at-risk youth who could become a permanent fixture in juvenile systems, adult prisons, or the welfare system.

It was Weaghington’s second time to attend the academy after getting in some trouble her first time

through. This time, she was awarded the Director’s Award and the Commandant’s Awards, which are the first and second highest awards of the program, she said.

“The Cadre have told me that this is the first time they’ve ever seen someone get both awards,” said Weaghington.

Weaghington said the most difficult part of the program was being away from family during the 22-week cycle. The 18-year-old self-proclaimed “momma’s girl” from Tuscon, Arizona lived with her family in Rio Rancho before entering the voluntary program.

“It was very hard ... I came back this cycle and I became company commander and learned from my mistakes,” Weaghington said.

Her mother, Jill Solano, couldn’t hold back tears as she described the change in Weaghington before and after the program.

Sheriff’s Office says ‘Country boy’ shunned big-city game Berrendo Creek death is not a homicide

By Jeff Jackson Record Staff Writer

By Jared Tucker Multimedia Journalist The Chaves County Sheriff’s Office has released more information regarding the partially decomposed body found near a green pickup along the Berrendo Creek on Friday.

Chaves County Sheriff Lt. Mike Herrington said there is no evidence that the death is a homicide.

“The circumstances surrounding the person’s death is still not known, but here’s no evidence to support a homicide,” Herrington said.

Herrington said the iden-

tification of the male body is not yet confirmed.

“The Office of the Medical Investigator is waiting on a toxicology report,” Herrington said, “also the dental records and medical records.”

Friday afternoon deputies responded to the 5500 block of Sequora Road in reference to a welfare check of a body laying next to a green Dodge Ram pickup, where inside was a deceased dog.

A few years after reaching his highest desire of playing major-league baseball, Tom Jordan realized he actually didn’t like it that much.

Sure, he loved baseball, but Oklahoma-born Thomas Jefferson Jordan preferred being among tall weeds in small towns over tall buildings in big cities.

“I never did enjoy playing in the major leagues like I did playing in the minor leagues,” Jordan, 95, said in the garage of his home near Goddard High School. “After the game, players would See SPOTLIGHT, Page A2

“The difference is in her attitude, her respect, she’s just grown so much as a person,” Solano said. “She told me she was going to come back and do it, and she did.”

Solano said her daughter’s graduation from the academy and her prestigious awards merit a super graduation present, so she gave Weaghington a 2005 Hyundai Sonata.

17-year-old Tyler Davis said self-control of his anger is one of the biggest skills he’s learned during the program. His family said it was extra difficult for him because he was dealing with the loss of his girlfriend who passed away in a car accident in November 2014.

“You learn how to cope with it,” Davis said. “(and) all kinds of other life skills, and job skills I didn’t know about.”

Davis’ father Vernie said watching his son graduate the academy Saturday was the most important day of his life.

“I’m just so proud as a father. He’s my only child.

He’s exceeded everything everybody thought he could do,” the elder Davis said.

According to The United Way of Central New Mexico’s Center for Nonprofit Excellence website, the program founded in 2001 is a “residential quasi-military training” facility that focuses on whole-person development through the emphasis of education and job skills training.

“Partnering with ENMU-R, the cadets obtain between 12-15 college credits while earning their GED,” the website states. The program serves all ethnic populations and has an annual budget of $750,000-$999,000, as stated on the website.

Waeghington said she already has a job at the Corrales Fire Department in a summer program, and wants to enlist in the United States Air Force. Davis is looking into several career options including all

branches of the military.

“You do everything. Hot shot crews, cleanup crews, just everything you need for experience as a firefighter,” Waeghington said.

Waeghington told future cadets to embrace and finish the program the first time.

“Find a silver lining. Find your motivation and work towards that,” Waeghington said.

“If the company gets disciplined for (something), just hold it in because you have to learn how to cope with your anger,” Davis said.

NMYCA Chaplain Jim Bignell gave the invocation at the ceremony.

“Today is a moment of opportunity that has come, and is a passage to a new future,” Bignell told the audience. “Today we pray for all those who have met the challenge, and kept the faith.”

Cleaning crews worked at the church Saturday, and church members announced they will hold a Sunday service. Harold Washington, 75, was with the small group that saw the lower-level room where the victims were shot.

“They did a good job cleaning it up,” he said.

“There were a few bullet holes around, but what they did, they cut them out so you don’t see the actual holes.”

He said he expected an emotional service with a large turnout Sunday.

Jordan became player-manager for the Roswell Rockets and led the Longhorn League in every batting category that didn’t require speed. He hit .391, slugged 44 home runs and 216 hits, scored 147 runs with 180 RBIs. As a hitter’s paradise, the Longhorn League did not have many Texas Leaguers. In 1955 with the Artesia Numexers, Jordan led all of organized baseball with a .407 batting average.

“There wasn’t any comparison playing here and West Texas, to playing in (the majors). That’s like comparing apples and oranges,” Jordan said. “I mean out here the wind

come by that we’ve never seen before and will probably never see again, and that’s OK,” he said. “It’s a church of the Lord — you don’t turn nobody down.”

The church had that same welcoming nature when Roof walked into their Bible study, Felecia Sanders said at Roof’s bail hearing Friday. Sanders survived the shooting, but her son Tywanza died.

As for the possible manifesto, Internet registry records show that the website was created Feb. 9 via a Russian registry service with the owner’s personal details hidden. A man who answered the phone at the Moscow-based company would not say who the

site’s owner was.

Roof is being held in jail, facing nine counts of murder and a weapons charge.

A police affidavit released Friday accused Roof of shooting all nine multiple times and making a “racially inflammatory statement” as he stood over an unidentified survivor.

Roof had complained while getting drunk on vodka recently that “blacks were taking over the world” and that “someone needed to do something about it for the white race,” according to Joey Meek, who tipped off the FBI when he saw his friend on surveillance images.

Just about 100 miles from Charleston, a large

crowd rallied Saturday in Columbia against the presence of the Confederate flag on the grounds of the Statehouse. The church massacre has renewed calls for the removal of the flag.

Police wouldn’t give an estimate for attendance, but there appeared to be hundreds, if not thousands, of people there, chanting “take it down.”

“We know what that flag symbolizes,” Michaela Pilar Brown, a Columbia artist, said at the rally. “We know the hate. We know the danger. It says ‘stop.’ It says ‘you are not welcome here.’

It says ‘fear for your life.’

Take down the flag.”

In Charleston, the grief was so palpable three days

after the shooting that a family re-routed its trip home from the beach and a bride-to-be interrupted her wedding day to pay their respects.

“It’s been a weird feeling, trying to have a celebration this weekend. But the whole city has been so supportive and such a show of grace,” said Kathryn Cole, 27, who lives two blocks away from the church and is set to say her nuptials Saturday night. “Life is carrying on. We aren’t letting this change our everyday lives.”

Greenville residents Stacey and Kenneth Penland arrived in Charleston for vacation Friday.

During their first full day

in the city, they came to the church with their children, 6-year-old Luke and 3-year-old Logan.

“We’ve been at the beach, and then the market, and of course we stopped by here,” said Kenneth Penland.

Derrick Jones was vacationing on Hilton Head Island when he decided to drive an hour out of his way home to Greenville. He stopped at the church with his wife and three boys.

“They’ve been asking questions all day since this has happened,” Jones said. “And I don’t really have all the answers. I try to explain it the best way I can.”

blew out all the time. The ball traveled about 50 feet farther than it did in East Texas. I think a lot of guys hit close to .400. Scouts didn’t even look at them.

They just didn’t pay attention to your batting average like in the major leagues.

There were a lot of big hitters.

“One game over in Odessa I hit three home runs, a double and a triple. I think we beat Odessa 25-23, something like that. That’s probably the best game I ever had,” he said.

A persistent injury and a yearning for home led Jordan to leave the big leagues for the minors, first in San Antonio then in Roswell.

“I quit. I walked away from the major leagues,” Jordan said. “I was supposed to go back to Cleve-

land. I could make more money playing in the minor leagues than I could playing in the major leagues.

I made a couple thousand more dollars playing minorleague baseball than I did major-league baseball. And I had the farm here, too.

I could stay around here, manage the farm, work on the farm.

“And my arm was hurting, too. It took two or three years to heal. I never did throw a baseball when my arm didn’t hurt.”

There is plenty that Jordan cherishes from his time in the majors, however, including the $50,000 check he received last year as part of settlement with retired players.

His debut came Sept. 4, 1944. The seventh-place Chicago White Sox were

next-to-last in the American League, 12 games behind the St. Louis Browns. But Jordan had a single in two at-bats as the Chisox beat the Detroit Tigers 6-3 in the nightcap of a Monday doubleheader.

“That was my ambition ever since I was kid to play in the major leagues.

As a matter of fact, on my high school diploma it said ‘Ambition: Major-League Baseball Player.’ Of course, that was pretty far-fetched then.”

He recalls meeting three Hall of Famers in the dugout in Cleveland.

“Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth and Tris Speaker, all three were sitting in the dugout about two hours before the game and I didn’t have sense enough to get either one of their autographs,” he said

with regret.

Jordan was catching in a game July 14, 1946, when Cleveland manager Lou Boudreau installed the famous “Williams shift” against Boston’s Ted Williams, whom many regard as the game’s best all-time hitter. Four infielders were deployed on the right side of the diamond. The same strategy is used often today.

“It took a lot of hits away from him,” Jordan said. “I played for Casey Stengel, Jimmy Dykes, Ted Lyons.”

Jordan’s playing career ended in 1957 with three games and one hit for the Carlsbad Potashers of the Southwestern League.

It was time to tend his farm and raise his kids, although he later scouted for the Tigers and Houston

Astros.

“Jodie Phipps was managing Carlsbad and he called me, wanted me to come down and play.

Shoot I hadn’t picked up a baseball the whole year and I went down there and played two or three games.

That was all. You could put a player on a 10-day look list. I was so sore but I went off the farm and went down there and played and he said ‘You’re better than these guys are even if you’re not in shape.’ It got to where it wasn’t no fun anymore, and I had a good farm. It was pretty good financially. And I had kids and a pretty nice home.”

Officials eye illegal sale of documents ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A state agency responsible for archiving New Mexico’s past is worried some of the state’s historic material dating back to the region’s Spanish rule may end up for sale online.

The New Mexico Commission of Public Records recently issued a warning that the sale of state public records is illegal.

The warning comes after officials noticed some documents being sold online.

New Mexico has lost many of historical documents from Spanish, Mexico and territorial periods to private collectors, state officials said. “The disappearance of government records into private hands deprives the public of access to important historical information that helps us to understand the history of our state and our nation,” the agency said.

In addition, the Albany, New York-based Council of State Historical Records Coordinators issued a statement requesting eBay’s assistance in alerting its customers to the illegal sale of historic public documents from all 50 states.

New Mexico State Records Administrator Linda Trujillo told The Associated Press that officials are not aware of any new cases of state records appearing for sale on online but they have discovered some in the past.

“We don’t want state public

documents to inadvertently end up in the wrong hands,” Trujillo said. “We just wanted to put this out as a warning and a reminder.”

A search Friday on eBay showed that the online auction site had a number of historical documents connected to New Mexico for sale. One seller posted a 1968 U.S. Cavalry Equipment document from Fort Sumner, New Mexico, related to the Indian Wars. Another seller had handwritten letters sent in 1903 from the Dawson, New Mexico, Mining Company to a resident in a ghost town.

Many public documents are passed down from family members who don’t know they shouldn’t be sold online, Trujillo said. Other times, the documents are stolen by former state employees or researchers who take the documents when workers aren’t looking, she said.

‘Chasing the pitch black’ at Carlsbad Caverns

You could say this column is a short follow up to the one I wrote last week about my travels throughout New Mexico since I started working at the Daily Record a little more than a year.

On Thursday I did go on a guided tour of Carlsbad Caverns starting from the natural entrance, and I still have sore hamstrings to prove it. It’s almost harder walking downhill than up.

The Big Room, the main attraction at the caverns, is about 750 feet below the visitor center and most visitors opt to take the elevator into the deep rather than hike it like I did. From the natural entrance, you snake down an asphalt trail of switchbacks that after 1.2 miles brings you to the Big Room.

Though there are restrooms near the entrance, our tour guide, cave scientist Dianne Joop, said all too often “biological spills” occur along the way from individuals who neglect to use those bathrooms and relieve themselves on the trail.

Joop is the education director for the National Cave and Karst Research Institute in Carlsbad, a nonprofit organization that studies caves and karst topography.

Timothy Howsare Ripcord into Reality Biological spills are very bad inside caves, I was told. So are sunflower seeds and spitting tobacco. The seeds attract raccoons and other hungry critters and the spitting tobacco is just, well, nasty. Bad smells of any kind linger for a long time inside a cave.

Even lint from our clothing and dead skins cells that flick off our bodies are invasive to cave environments, I was told.

Joop spoke of Onondaga Cave State Park in Missouri, where in an attempt to be cute, someone let loose a goldfish in one of the ponds. Joop said it took $10,000 and three months to track down the goldfish and remove it from the cave. In that short time, the little bugger had wreaked all kinds of havoc.

I asked Joop, “So even though everything inside a cave looks so

rock-hard solid it is actually a very delicate environment?” She said yes.

Another interesting thing Joop talked about was the variety of microbial life deep underground.

Some of the microbes, she said, are so sensitive that the heat from our bodies will kill them as we walk by.

There’s also a microscopic critter living deep inside the caverns that eats rock and excretes plastic, she said. It sounds like science fiction, but if these microbes could be mass-produced above ground, they might be used to produce plastic in place of oil.

The National Park Service has begun a three-year project to replace the incandescent lighting the caves with LED lights. The LED lights use less energy, but more importantly I was told, they will not grow molds like the incandescent lights.

Right now there is a bit of a controversy between the park service and the cave scientists, as highly visible black electrical conduits snake their way into the caverns for the new electrical system. We were assured by a park official at some point they all will be covered

Going along on the natural entrance tour with Joop and I were one of Joop’s coworkers, NCKRI Advancement Director Suzanna Hernandez and Maddy Hayden, reporter at Carlsbad Current-Argus.

Hayden moved to Carlsbad from Illinois two weeks ago to cover education and parks. She was touring the caves as part of her job. With me, it’s hard to tell when I’m on the clock and when I’m off.

Upon reaching the Big Room, I made a quick trip to the men’s room and then the four of us hooked up with Valerie Gohlke, NPS public affairs specialist, who guided our tour of the big room.

I don’t even know where to begin to describe it. The Big Room was one of the most spectacular things I’ve ever seen and I would probably be repeating a lot of what other people have already said.

Editorial

Blanket registration invite to voter fraud Voter fraud is not imaginary. But labeling reasonable efforts to ensure that fraud doesn’t taint elections as voter suppression is pure fantasy.

Loading the voter rolls with the names of people who don’t care enough about their civic duty to provide county officials with a name and correct address is an open invitation to fraud.

The incessant drumbeat, mostly from Democrats, that voter fraud doesn’t exist is simply untrue. They know it and we certainly know it.

Names of inactive voters on the rolls are the No. 1 asset voter fraud perpetrators rely on. The absentee ballot “warlords,” apply for absentee ballots in the name of people that will not vote.

The person might be dead or they might have moved away or simply may never darken the door of a polling place. But ballots are cast in their name anyway.

In other cases, fraud perpetrators get inactive voters to register and apply for an absentee ballot. When the ballot arrives at the person’s home, they sit down with the “voter” and tell them how to fill out the ballot.

Hillary Clinton’s call to automatically register everyone to vote when they turn 18 won’t generate new interest in voting. In most places, it is ridiculously easy to register to vote and it’s also easy to obtain the photo identification that people need to cast a vote at the polls.

What automatic registration would do is create exceptionally fertile ground for voter fraud. People don’t neglect to vote because it’s difficult to register or get to the polls. It’s not.

They fail to register and vote because they don’t care enough about the process of governing this country to make the effort — or perhaps they just don’t believe their vote makes a difference.

There is nothing wrong with leaving the decision about who will run the state, national and local government up to the people who will make the minimal effort required to exercise their franchise.

It is these citizens who should decide and not someone who cranks out ballots that have other people’s names on them. Anyone who won’t expend the time and energy to register isn’t likely to be capable of making an informed decision.

Clinton’s reasons for calling for universal registration are purely political.

She wants to turn attention away from her own problems, questionable fundraising and deleted emails, while positioning her Republican rivals as opponents of democracy.

She also knows those who commit voter fraud are her political allies. She knows voter fraud exists, but she also knows she has little to fear from it.

People who won’t make the minimal effort to register aren’t likely to vote.

Why let someone else vote for them?

The anti-science are back to mess with progress This year is the 10th anniversary of a book called “The Republican War on Science.”

I could just as easily write a book called “The Democratic War on Science.”

The conflict conservatives have with science is mostly caused by religion. Some religious conservatives reject evolution, and some oppose stem cell research.

But neither belief has a big impact on our day-to-day lives.

Species continue to evolve regardless of what conservatives believe, and if conservatives ban government funding of stem cell research, private investors will continue the work.

By contrast, the left’s bad ideas about science do more harm.

Many on the left — includ-

John

Stossel Syndicated Columnist ing a few of my fellow libertarians — are paranoid about genetically modified organisms.

These are crops that have DNA altered to make them grow faster or be more pest-resistant.

The left calls that “playing with nature” and worries that eating GMO food will cause infertility, premature aging and a host of other problems.

The fear makes little scientific sense. There is no reason to think that precise changes in a

plant’s genes are more dangerous than, say, the cross-breeding of corn done by American Indians centuries ago or a new type of tomato arising in someone’s organic garden. Nature makes wilder and more unpredictable changes in plant DNA all the time.

Yet the left’s fear of GMOs led activists to destroy fields of experimental crops in Europe and, most tragically, bans on GMO foods that might help prevent hunger and malnutrition in African and Asian nations.

Leftists often claim to be defenders of progress, but they sound more like religious conservatives when they oppose “tampering with nature.”

The new movie “Jurassic World,” in which scientists tamper with DNA to create a super-dinosaur that gets out

of control, doesn’t just recycle ideas from the original “Jurassic Park.” It recycles the same fears that inspired the novel “Frankenstein” 200 years ago — the idea that if humans alter nature’s perfect design, we’ll pay a terrible price.

But it’s nature that is terrible.

We should alter it. “Living with nature” means fighting for food, freezing in the cold and dying young.

The left’s anti-science fears also prevent us from building new nuclear reactors, especially after Fukushima and Chernobyl. But those reactor designs were already considered obsolete. Future reactors could be far safer and would reduce our dependence on carSee STOSSEL, Page A5

Use of vitamin D supplements is still controversial subject DEAR DOCTOR K: My doctor advised me to take a vitamin D supplement. Why do I need vitamin D? Also, my pharmacy sells vitamin D in two forms: D2 and D3.

What is the difference, and which one should I take?

DEAR READER: This is an area full of controversy because not enough research has been done. I typically recommend getting vitamins from food, but vitamin D is found naturally in only a few foods. Fatty fish is the main dietary source, and milk, many juices and breakfast cereals are fortified with it.

We get most of our vitamin D from the sun: When sunlight strikes the skin, skin cells make vitamin D. But these days, people get a lot less sunlight than they used

Ask Dr. K United Media Syndicate to.

Other factors also affect how much vitamin D your body makes. For example, how far you live from the equator, the season and the time of day all affect how much sunlight reaches your skin. Your age, skin color, how much skin you expose and your sunscreen use also influence your production of vitamin D. The amount of vitamin D

in your body is reflected by the levels of the vitamin in your blood. These levels can be divided into the following categories: clearly low, possibly low, on the low side of normal and on the high side of normal. Here’s what we know: People with clearly low levels of vitamin D are at greatly increased risk for osteoporosis, a bone-thinning disease, and should take vitamin D supplements. That’s not controversial.

Here’s where the controversy starts. Many studies also show that people with possibly low blood levels of vitamin D, or levels on the low side of normal, are at greater risk for several major diseases, compared to people with levels on the high

side of normal. Those diseases include high blood pressure, heart disease, multiple sclerosis, Type 1 diabetes, depression and colon cancer.

What’s controversial is this question: If your blood level of vitamin D is possibly low or on the low side of normal, does taking vitamin D supplements reduce your risk of developing these major diseases? My own view is that we just don’t know. Fortunately, research is underway to answer that question.

Until the answer is in, what should we do? A committee of experts convened by the Institute of Medicine recommends: (1) people below the age of 70 should take 600 international units See DR. K, Page A5

The consequences of the ‘what if’ game To some degree, a single event of a grizzly bear jumping out from behind a tree would be better than years of being anxious worried that behind each tree there could be a grizzly bear. It is a slow and perpetual loss of quality of life rather than a one time major happening that moves an existing fear into the rear view mirror.

At some point each of us needs to recognize there will always be trouble out there. Planes fall from the sky. The stock market tanks. Good people turn bad. The other shoe always falls. Something you thought you had is taken away by the fine print.

You can choose to live your life with a meteor shower of “what if’s.”

What if my car breaks down? What if I can’t afford braces for my child? What if no one likes me? What if I get laid off?

You get up each day with a trepidation, a suspicion, an unrest that something bad is going to happen to

you today. Then you go to bed with this attitude and then start all over again the next day.

It is like living with a pebble in your shoe. It slows you down each step you take. Pastor Lucado calls it “part chicken little and part Eeyore.” The sky is falling and it is falling disproportionally on me.

Mr. Lucado defines anxiety as a free floating sense of dread, an ill-defined sense of dread that might happen some time in the future. Anxiety is vague and distant. It is emotional and not logical. It is the attitude that “something bad is always going to happen to me.”

It is doom and gloom. In your life do you magnify the negative and diminish the positive?

What causes anxiety? Never in the history of mankind has society changed so much. In the past 30 years our world has seen more changes than the previous 300 years. Changes in technology, in world values.

We hear daily about ISIS. We hear immediately if an earthquake hits Nepal.

Bad news travels at the speed of sound, not across the ocean in a boat or received weeks later by letter. We even have instant alerts on our phone. We are inundated with information 24/7. We

have news stations always broadcasting live to report to us every crisis that occurs anywhere on our planet.

Add this to everything else that comes with being a normal human. We get sick, we get cranky, we have stresses on the job, we have issues at home.

The United States is the most anxious nation in the world. $300 billion a year is spent in medical bills and lost productivity because of anxiety. From 1997 to 2004, American’s use of anxiety related drugs climbed from $900 million to $2.1 billion.

Our generation is three times more likely to suffer from depression than the generation before us. And the generation before us was three times more likely to suffer from depression than the generation before them. You see what is happening here. How can this happen when today we are the most self sufficient we have ever been and we have safer products today than at any time in the history of mankind?

Are you laughing less than you once did? Do you have more negative thoughts than in the past? Are you not generous because of fear of running out of money?

If given the choice would you avoid interaction with

any human being for the rest of your life? Do you resist the success of others?

Pastor Lucado tells us the remedy is found in the Bible in the book of Philippians. He calls it God’s prescription. The Apostle Paul wrote in chapter 4 in verses 4-8, “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things.”

The solution to the anxiety disease is not that complicated if we choose to follow this prescription.

It is all in our head. We have the power to minimize anxiety in our own life.

Some people have worried so much in their life that they can’t imagine a world without perpetual

anxiety.

My challenge to you is not to avoid anxiety or worry. Like nitroglycerine, in small doses it can help your heart. But in large doses, you can have an explosion. Each of us will always have anxiety in some form or fashion.

My challenge is to avoid the large dosage that will rule your world, take your breath away, crush your spirit, weigh you down, destroy your quality of life, and rob you of today’s joy.

Life is short. Lived right, each day can be the best day of your life. For the most part and with few exceptions, you control this. Today is the only day you can live. Don’t let anxiety of what may or may not happen tomorrow drag you down.

Stop playing the “what if” game. One thing I can guarantee you: You won’t win!. As Paul wrote almost 2000 years ago, be anxious for nothing, but in all things rejoice.

Just a thought.

Dear editor, I was a judge at the recent Senior Olympics Games in Roswell and I must say the experi ence left me addled and exhausted, and that was only after two hours.

Some very wise people many years ago concluded there is no way to compare apples and oranges. Yet, that is what was expected of the judges. It is not possible to compare

an instrumentalist with a comedy routine, or a vocalist with a dancer, or even jazz dancers with tap dancers, or vocal soloists with group vocals. There is no basis for comparison. You came up with criteria that is common to all talent, but the variables are what make individuals talented.

You would never put a shuffle board player against a pool player, or

a swimmer against a discus thrower, or a cyclist against a tennis player, or a team against the prowess of an individual.

How is it that the sports are different from artistic talent? Dancing, making music, and singing are all conducive to a happier older life and should be encouraged.

The people who engage in the arts want to compete. They aren’t interest-

ed in coming to Roswell to have their four minutes on the stage at your affair on Thursday.

And if you can open a stage to talent on an afternoon and night, why not make it a competition? Someone alluded to the fact that there were contestants last year who shouldn’t have been allowed to compete because they weren’t good enough. Hogwash! That is

what the auditions are for.

And who ever thought a DVD or CD is better than live? You succeeded in paring a field of 70 down to 13. That doesn’t look like progress to me and cost you at least $2,500 in entry fees. There should be 150 contestants.

What is needed on your crew is someone who is interested in talent. It is clear to me that SPORTS are where you

want to expend your energy.

I could say a good deal about your choice of judges, but I will refrain. You need to look deeper.

Good luck with whatever you come up with for next year. My guess is you will manage to eliminate the talent division altogether.

crippling disease.

The left also objects to science that contradicts their egalitarian beliefs. A few years ago, I interviewed scientists who had discovered ways in which male and female brains differ from birth. The scientists told me that they wanted to continue such research, but political pressure against it was too intense. Men and women clearly have different aptitudes, but today leftists demand that government punish any company that treats genders differently.

Few scientists today would even study rela-

tive IQs of different ethnic groups. They know they’d be de-funded if they discovered the “wrong” facts.

I say, follow the truth wherever science leads. “Science Wars” is the subject of my next TV show.

Last week, I reported how SeaWorld had been smeared by animal rights activists.

The activists responded with more smears.

They claimed my producers and I wouldn’t talk to animal trainers seen in the film “Blackfish.” But I tried interviewing them — they refused to talk. The activists also claim we based our

report on views of Bridget M. Davis and Mark Simmons, but I don’t even know who they are. Then they claimed we got all our information from SeaWorld, but that, too, is a lie; of course, we consulted independent sources.

As often happens, activists put politics before reality.

I heard a speaker once say that we are always at one of three locations in our lives: we are either entering a storm, in the middle of a storm, or leaving a storm.

There will always be storms in our lives. In each of our lives we do have sunny days, but are they the rule or the exception in your life?

There are people in this world who live life anxious about the next storm.

They can’t relax in their world. Peace is temporary and short term (if peace exists at all). Bottom line, they lose today because they are too busy being anxious about tomorrow.

Some of these people even get anxious about being anxious.

I heard a sermon by Max Lucado, the Preaching Pastor at Oak Hills Church in San Antonio called “Anxious for Nothing.” He did a great job of identifying the serious problem we are facing today as well as offering the solution.

Pastor Lucado shared that some people live their lives fearful that a grizzly bear might jump out from behind any tree they pass by. It is not so much the sight of a grizzly bear, it is the suspicion that one may be behind any tree they pass that keeps them anxiously awake at night.

Little by little, with a kerosene lantern and makeshift ladders, White journeyed deeper and deeper into the caverns. Upon reaching the Big Room, he knew he had come upon something very huge and very usual.

His lantern light disappeared into the blackness. A blackness like none he had ever encountered.

Airbags are important to your automotive safety

By Steve Wolfe Airbags have been getting a great deal of attention in recent months because of a massive recall of vehicles which may have faulty airbags. These exploding airbags spray metal pieces — shrapnel — which cut the face, eyes, torso, and can actually kill a person. This column will not address that particular recall topic. Certainly, however, if you have reason for concern, please check the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA) website.

The history of the modern airbag seems surprisingly short. Allen K. Breed invented the modern airbag in 1968. Mr. Breed founded Breed Technologies of Lakeland, Florida, and in 1999, was inducted into the Automotive Hall of Fame. Truly, he was a pio-

neer in airbag safety. Over the next few years, the airbag underwent much experimentation and in 1988, Chrysler became the first company to offer an airbag restraint system as standard equipment.

This week a friend sent me a State Farm Safety Learning Center article in which the lead sentence is “Airbags can save your life, but they can also cause injury.” When a vehicle gets into an accident and the proper sensors are triggered, airbags are extremely powerful. They

will deploy automatically at speeds as high as 200 mph within milliseconds of the crash.

There are basically four types of airbags. Frontal Collision Airbags are those at the steering wheel and passenger’s side, mounted on the dash and which are particularly intended to protect the head and torso.

There are Adaptive airbags on the passenger side, which detect the presence of weight and seating position in the passenger seat.

A passenger sensing system may turn off the airbag in some situations. A third variety of airbags are Front and Back Side airbags, which will protect the torso, and a fourth is Side Curtain Airbags.

Side curtain airbags protect the head and will shield the vehicle occupants from flying debris.

I found it interesting to learn that the curtain ver-

sion stays inflated longer in order to provide greater protection in side impact and rollover collisions. Your vehicle will be equipped appropriately as determined by its make and model.

Notably, airbags can help save lives. It is estimated that frontal airbags helped save 2,213 lives in 2012. Statistics indicate that they help reduce deaths among drivers by 29 percent and front-seat passengers by 32 percent.

Side airbags reduce deaths in driver-side crashes by 37 percent in cars and 52 percent in SUVs. However, as mentioned, they can also cause injury and even death. During the period of 1990 – 2007, airbags seriously injured 38 children and 15 adults and actually killed 180 children and 104 adults. However, it seems that this 17-year timeframe versus 2,213

saved lives in only one year makes airbags an extremely wise addition to automotive safety. Speaking from a personal perspective, in 2011 I collided with a deer 20 miles north of Roswell.

That was a frightening few seconds, of course, but I learned something about airbags. In my case, it did not deploy and I am forever grateful! Apparently, the sensor was 6 inches below the point of impact.

The location of the accident on US285 allowed me the ability to steer back into control, and I think an inflated airbag would have been a major problem. Airbags are designed to do different things in different situations, and I suspect that I benefited from the technology.

There are some tips to minimize airbag injuries.

First, always wear your seatbelts. For example, in my case, if I had not

buckled up, my ability to react to a spinning car in a highway right-of-way may have been severely inhibited. Another tip states clearly that there should be no less than 10 inches between the driver’s body and the center of the steering wheel.

It is the same for the passenger to the dashboard airbag. Both seats should be moved as far back as safely possible.

Further, do not allow any child under age 12 to ride in the front seat. Fortunately, most young parents are fully familiar with seatbelt and airbag rules for kids.

Be safe this summer!

World shocked at racism, gun violence in US

BEIJING (AP) — Often the target of U.S. human rights accusations, China wasted little time returning such charges following the shooting at a historic black church in South Carolina that left nine people dead. Elsewhere, the attack renewed perceptions that Americans have too many guns and have yet to overcome racial tensions.

Some said the attack reinforced their reservations about personal security in the U.S. — particularly as a non-white foreigner — while others said they’d still feel safe if they were to visit.

Especially in Australia and northeast Asia, where firearms are strictly controlled and gun violence almost unheard of, many were baffled by the determination among many Americans to own guns despite repeated mass shootings, such as the 2012 tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, where a gunman killed 20 children and six adults.

“We don’t understand America’s need for guns,” said Philip Alpers, director of the University of Sydney’s GunPolicy.org project that compares gun laws across the world. “It is very puzzling for non-Americans.”

A frontier nation like the U.S., Australia had a similar attitude toward firearms prior to a 1996 mass shooting that killed 35.

Soon after, tight restrictions on gun ownership were imposed and no such incidents have been reported since.

Ahmad Syafi’i Maarif, a prominent Indonesian intellectual and former leader

of Muhammadiyah, one of the country’s largest Muslim organizations, said the tragedy shocked many.

“People all over the world believed that racism had gone from the U.S. when Barack Obama was elected to lead the superpower, twice,” he said. “But the Charleston shooting has reminded us that in fact, the seeds of racism still remain and were embedded in the hearts of small communities there, and can explode at any time, like a terrorist act by an individual.”

A 21-year-old white man, Dylann Storm Roof, is accused of fatally shooting nine people at a Bible study at the historically black Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina.

An acquaintance said Roof had complained that “blacks were taking over the world.”

Racially charged shootings in the U.S. have received widespread global attention.

Prominent Malaysian social commentator Marina Mahathir said many in her country find it puzzling why the U.S. government won’t restrict gun ownership laws.

The Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution protects the right to keep and bear arms.

“We are mystified by the freedom of guns there. It’s a bizarre idea that everyone should have their right to arms,” said Marina, the daughter of former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad.

In Britain, the attack reinforced the view that America has too many guns and too many racists. The frontpage headline of The Inde-

pendent newspaper said simply, “America’s shame.”

The newspaper said in an editorial that America seems to have moved backward in racial relations since Obama’s election, and that the “obscene proliferation of guns only magnifies tragedies” like the church shooting.

The leftist Mexico City newspaper La Jornada said the U.S. has become a “structurally violent state” where force is frequently used domestically and internationally to resolve differences.

“In this context, the unchecked and even paranoid citizen armament is no coincidence: Such a phenomenon reflects the feeling of extensive sectors about the supposed legitimacy of violent methods,” it said.

In China, the official Xinhua News Agency said the violence in South Carolina “mirrors the U.S. government’s inaction on rampant gun violence as well as the growing racial hatred in the country.”

“Unless U.S. President Barack Obama’s government really reflects on his country’s deep-rooted issues like racial discrimination and social inequality and takes concrete actions on gun control, such tragedy will hardly be prevented from happening again,” Xinhua said in an editorial.

On China’s Twitter-like Weibo microblogging service, some users compared the United States to lawless Somalia and said racial discrimination was fueling violence and high crime rates. Many reflected the official view that gun ownership and violent crime are

Recalling the recent killings of Chinese and other foreign students in the U.S., office worker Xie Yan said he was still eager to visit the U.S., but would be “extremely careful” there.

Xie said he had heard much about racism in the U.S., but was uncertain about the underlying dynamics.

“We tend to see the U.S. as a violent place, but I don’t think we understand a lot about racism there. Chinese are free to study, visit and live there so it doesn’t feel like we’re discriminated against,” Xu said while waiting for a train on Beijing’s busy subway line 1.

Like Australia, China has had its problems with racial

and ethnic discrimination.

China is overwhelmingly dominated by one ethnic group, the Han, and activists decry the lack of awareness about discrimination in jobs and housing faced by minorities such as Tibetans and Turkic Muslim Uighurs from the northwest.

Chinese police have been accused of heavy-handed tactics against those labeled separatists or terrorists, although such measures appear to be supported by most Chinese.

In Japan, discrimination tends to be based less on skin color than on national origin, resulting in biases against Chinese and Koreans, said Hiroko Takimoto, 41, a patent attorney in Tokyo.

Racially motivated killings are “simply something Japanese as a people cannot understand,” she said.

Yukari Kato, vice president of the company Ryugaku Journal that assists Japanese students on overseas programs, including about 2,000 in the U.S., said violence there was nothing new and most of the country remained perfectly safe.

“It’s no different from Japan. There are places where you can become a victim of crime. You just have to be prepared to defend yourself,” she said.

However, Yuka Christine Koshino, 21, a political science student at Tokyo’s Keio University, said she was devastated by the shootings, particularly after having participated in racism awareness campaigns while studying at the University of California, Berkeley. Those interactions had given her hope that the situation was improving. The shootings “shocked me,” said Koshino.

Greek island swamped by UK police probe whether flood; no relief is in sight men stowed beneath plane MYTILENE, Greece (AP) — An inflatable dinghy touches the shore in darkness. Dozens of men, women and children jump into the shallow water, stumbling on unseen rocks as they scramble onto a narrow strip of seaweed-strewn beach.

“Are we in Greece?” one man asks as he ditches his life jacket. They are — on the northeastern Aegean island of Lesbos. The group breaks out in jubilation. Men hug each other, couples snap selfies, children flash the victory sign.

The four dozen Syrians and Iraqis have just made a treacherous, threehour journey from Turkey crammed into a dinghy designed to carry less than half their number.

They trudge for miles into the island’s main town of Mytilene, joining a flood of thousands of refugees and migrants in Greece that has stretched authorities to the limit — especially at a time when the country is teetering on the brink of financial ruin.

Lesbos, Greece’s third-largest island, is bearing the brunt of the crisis. More than 25,000 people have arrived on the island of about 80,000 inhabitants since the start of the year — nearly half of the 55,000 who have reached Greece by sea from Turkey.

The figure is a staggering 620 percent increase for Lesbos from the same period last year, said Lesbos Coast Guard Lt. Cmdr.

Antonios Sofiadelis, who is also the local coordinator for Europe’s boarder agency, Frontex. He said he needs more staff and more Frontex patrol vessels to cope.

“At the moment it’s something unreal ... the numbers of migrants who arrive are enormous,” Sofiadelis said. “We are doing our duty, we are surpassing ourselves, we are work-

ing 24 hours a day, seven days a week. But this is now every day and as you understand fatigue sets in.”

Night after night, the packed dinghies come ashore along Lesbos’ eastern coastline. The vast majority are refugees fleeing conflict in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan. Many are professionals — engineers, technicians, lawyers and translators. They come cradling infants, clutching exhausted toddlers by the hand, supporting pregnant wives and elderly parents.

“We have run from the war. ... We want to just feel like we are human, like all the people,” said Lukman Muhammed Ali, from the Syrian town of Qamishli, wringing out his clothes moments after stepping ashore Wednesday. “I want to feel I am human, that I have freedom, like everyone.”

The relatively lucky ones are rescued by the coast guard, which transports them to Mytilene for initial processing and screening.

Those reaching the shore themselves have to make their own way. Arrivals on the island’s north face a 60-kilometer (38-mile), two-day trek through mountains. Local transport cannot pick them up, since Greek law stipulates that anyone caught transporting an unregistered migrant can face criminal prosecution as a smuggler.

“Every day in Lesbos, (it’s like) a new village is born,” said Spryos Galinos, the mayor of Lesbos.

“The numbers overwhelm us.”

A police-run registration and temporary housing center set up in former army barracks outside the village of Moira quickly reached its capacity of 600, so Galinos arranged tents outside to house the overflow. He also set up a second tent camp just outside Mytilene, in a former

recreational area used to teach children about road safety. But that, too, is filled way beyond capacity, with rudimentary conditions.

“If the flow doesn’t stop, we can’t cope,” Galinos said. “I’m making efforts (but) I create a center for 400 people, and then 700 arrive in one day.”

The island community is doing what it can. One group arranged a car pool — defying the law and transporting dozens of new arrivals from northern Lesbos to the main port.

A local priest, Efstratios Dimou, known as Father Stratis, operates a charity providing food, clothing and a place to rest for those tackling the two-day trek. He noted that many of the island’s inhabitants are themselves from refugee stock, stemming from a 1922 exchange of populations between Greece and Turkey.

LONDON (AP) — A man is in critical condition in a London hospital after he was found stowed away in the undercarriage of a plane that had just completed a 10-hour flight, and police are investigating whether a man found dead on a west London rooftop had fallen from the same plane.

Authorities at Heathrow Airport found the man in the undercarriage of a British Airways plane after it landed Thursday morning on a flight from Johannesburg. Police say they believe they know his identity and that he is 24 but they are awaiting confirmation before they release any details.

While there is no evidence to link the two cases, police say they are looking into whether there is a connection to the body found an hour later in the west London community of Richmond, which is below the flight path.

British Airways said it is working with police in London and Johannesburg to establish the facts in this “rare case.”

Experts believe roughly three-quarters of stowaways do not survive if they hide on a plane’s undercarriage because of the extreme cold and lack of oxygen they experience as the plane reaches cruising altitude. Though not common, stowaways have in the past plunged to the streets of west London as the planes lowered their landing gear.

In September 2012, a 30-year old from Mozambique, Jose Matada, died after falling from the undercarriage of a Heathrow-bound flight from Angola on to a street in Mortlake, which is not far from where the body was found Thursday.

An inquest into his death suggested he had survived freezing temperatures of up to minus

60 Celsius (minus 76 Fahrenheit for most of the 12-hour flight, but he was believed to be dead or nearly dead by the time he hit the ground.

Aviation expert Chris Yates described the latest situation as unusual because of enhanced security measures at airports meant to deter terror and other attacks. However, he noted that the stowaways who survive have tended to be young people.

The Rev. Neil Summers, from the St John the Divine of Richmond church across the way from where the body was found, said he would lead prayers for the dead man.

“In one sense it’s not totally surprising as it’s happened before,” he said.

“It’s very shocking when it’s so close to you. We are going to say prayers for the people concerned tonight.”

Goddard rolls, Roswell splits in Southwest Baseball Classic

By Karen Boehler Record Correspondent

Goddard swept its way through the first four games of the Southwest Baseball tournament, despite having to play three games Saturday instead of just two because of weather on the opening day.

“Summer baseball has been going well for us,” said Rocket coach Alan Edmonson. “We’ve got a lot of young kids playing, trying to impress us, and we’ve had some that have done that. We’ve got some kids who have really stepped up and shown some promise for next year that we’re really proud of.

So all the way around it’s been a good weekend for us.”

In the only game they played Friday, Goddard mercy ruled Ruidoso 9-1 after the Warriors struck first on two hit batters off starter Scott Haus and two fielding errors. But Haus settled down and the Rocket bats came alive, scoring two runs in the third, two in the fourth, four in the fifth and a final run in the sixth to end the game early. Logan Matheson and Zane Carillo scored in the second, with the only hit an RBI single by Tyler Hardwick.

Max Scherzer pitches no-hitter after losing perfect game in 9th

Shawn Naranjo Photo

Goddard’s Andrew Shanor smacks an RBI-double in the sixth inning to tie the game against Carlsbad Saturday morning at NMMI Field.

Walks, errors and an RBI single by Andrew Shanor scored Luke Fink and Ty Villareal in the fourth, and more of the same in the fifth brought in Matheson, Drew Price, Carrillo and Hardwick, with the only hits single by Hardwick and Fink. Ryan Perry scored the winning run on a walk and singles by Matheson and Carrillo.

The Rockets started off Saturday with a 9-6 victory over Carlsbad at NMMI — a makeup game from the

one missed Friday — then downed district rival Artesia 4-2 in the final poolplay game at Goddard.

Carlsbad did the same as Ruidoso, jumping out to a 4-0 second-inning lead. But the Rockets came back with five in the third, taking advantage of three singles, a walk and two errors. The Cavemen returned the favor in the fifth, going up 6-5, but Goddard closed it out under the 2-hour time limit, scoring four runs in

the bottom of the sixth.

Cole Wentland was the top Rocket hitter, going 2-for-3 with a triple, 2 RBIs and two runs scored.

Nathan Chavez also tripled and Shanor and Hardwick each doubled.

“Beating a loaded Carlsbad team was huge for us,” Edmonson said. “That was almost their full varsity squad and a lot of these young guys stepped up. We’ve got a lot of guys See BASEBALL, Page B3

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Max Scherzer celebrates after his no-hitter against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Nationals Park, Saturday in Washington.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Max Scherzer pitched a no-hitter and came agonizingly close to a perfect game, hitting a batter with two outs in the ninth inning Saturday in the Washington Nationals’ 6-0 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates.

Scherzer was masterful in retiring the first 26 hitters. He came within one strike of throwing the 22nd perfect game in major league history since 1900.

Pinch-hitter Jose Tabata fouled off three 2-2 pitches before Scherzer clipped him on the elbow with a breaking ball. Tabata dropped his elbow as the pitch approached, and Scherzer immediately grimaced after plunking him.

Scherzer (8-5) then retired Josh Harrison on a deep fly to left and was swallowed up by jubilant teammates near the mound.

After finishing off his first career no-hitter, the Nationals’ ace admitted there was a bit of a letdown when he hit Tabata.

“I mean there is, just because you’re so close, one strike away from a perfect game,” he said.

“But to get a no-hitter in front of these fans, there’s nothing better.”

The 30-year-old righty struck out 10 in his second straight dominant performance, and was cheered by a crowd of 41,104.

Scherzer got help from his infield in the late innings.

In the eighth, shifted second baseman Danny Espinosa barely threw out Pedro Alvarez from shallow right field to end the inning.

“Man, that was just a great play,” Scherzer said.

Leading off the ninth, third baseman Anthony Rendon ran hard to catch a foul pop by Gregory Polanco, and wound up bent over the dugout railing.

In his previous start,

Scherzer took a perfect game into the seventh at Milwaukee and finished with a one-hitter and 16 strikeouts. The lone hit was a leadoff single by Carlos Gomez just beyond reach of Rendon, who was playing second base.

Scherzer turned in perhaps the most magnificent consecutive starts in the majors since Johnny Vander Meer pitched backto-back no-hitters for Cincinnati in 1938.

Scherzer wound up with his third career shutout.

He had one in 219 lifetime starts before these two in a row.

Signed to a $210 million, seven-year contract in the offseason after leaving Detroit, the 2013 AL Cy Young winner pitched the second no-hitter in Nationals’ history. Jordan Zimmermann threw one against the Marlins last year to end the regular season.

It was the fourth no-hitter in the city’s baseball history — Walter Johnson and Bob Burke threw them for the old Washington Senators.

This was the second no-hitter of the season.

San Francisco rookie Chris Heston did it June 9 against the Mets.

Scherzer’s gem marked the second major achievement in the big leagues in two days. On Friday night, Alex Rodriguez got his 3,000th career hit for the Yankees.

Scherzer threw 106 pitches, 82 for strikes. He was throwing fastballs in the upper 90s mph and used a wicked slider in lowering his ERA to 1.76.

The Pirates twice hit balls to the warning track in his first time through the order.

Bryce Harper hit his 23rd homer and drove in two runs. He had missed two games after straining his hamstring.

Francisco Liriano (4-6) took the loss.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Shawn Porter beat Adrien Broner in a unanimous decision on Saturday night in a key welterweight matchup.

The judges scored the fight 114-112, 115-111 and 118-108 for Porter (26-1-1, 16 KOs), who got off to a strong start and held on after Broner knocked him down in the final round. Broner (302, 22 KOs) had a point deducted late in the 11th round after multiple warnings for holding Porter down.

In the co-main event, undefeated former Olympian Errol Spence (170, 14 KOs) kept his perfect record intact with an impressive third-round TKO over veteran Phil Lo Greco.

After a measured first round, Spence landed numerous body shots that quickly slowed Lo Greco.

A short right hand floored Lo Greco early in the third round and Spence followed with a number of calculated power shots, forcing the referee to stop the fight at 1:50.

Day moves into tie for lead at Rotary Desert US Open a day after collapsing Sun Golf Classic Roswell Daily Record

UNIVERSITY PLACE, Wash. (AP) – One day after he collapsed from a bout of vertigo, Jason Day was standing taller than ever Saturday in the U.S. Open.

When the medication began to wear off and the vertigo returned, Day fought his way to the finish with a 31 on the back nine for a 2-under 68. He wound up in a four-way tie for the lead with Masters champion Jordan Spieth, Dustin Johnson and Branden Grace of South Africa.

Day felt nauseous over the final hour. He had to steady himself to stick a tee in the ground and pluck a ball out of the cup.

And he considered quitting three times.

Good thing he didn’t.

The 27-year-old Australian is playing in the final group of a major for the first time.

“That was the greatest round I’ve ever watched,” said Colin Swatton, his caddie and longtime coach who whispered words of encouragement along the hilly terrain of Chambers Bay. “I said, ‘You’ve got the heart of a lion. You get to show the world today you get to be the greatest you can be and look, let’s do it.’ And he just put his head down and kept walking, one foot in front of the other. It was pretty impressive.”

Day steadied himself with a performance that brought to mind Ken Venturi winning the U.S. Open at Congressional in 1964 with a 36-hole final while suffering from heat exhaustion and severe dehydration, and Tiger Woods winning the U.S. Open at Torrey Pines in 2008 with a shattered left leg.

Day still has one day to

who’ve been playing really well for us. Cole Wentland is one who comes to mind. Ethan Coombes on the mound. Nate Chavez has done a fantastic job in the outfield with Luke Fink. Tyler Hardwick’s been swinging it well all summer, so we’ve got some young guys who have really stepped it up.”

The afternoon game against Artesia was much closer, with GHS taking a 4-2 victory, and this time, while they never trailed, they had to overcome a tied game.

Fink walked to open the game and came home on a Villareal triple. Matheson and Chavez both singled in the second, with Coombes bringing them in with an RBI single.

The Bulldogs scored two runs in the top of the fifth on a hit batter, fielder’s choice single and error to tie it at 2-2, but Goddard came back in the bottom of the inning. Chavez doubled then, two outs later, Price walked and Fink and Villareal both singled, making it 4-0 Rockets. Those two also combined to allow only six Artesia hits.

The closest game for the Rockets was the first bracketed game, which they won 4-3 over the Southeast — a team comprised of players from Texico, Melrose, Portales and Dexter — which was undefeated to that point.

The game was tied at 1-1 in the top of the sixth and both teams battled to the final out, but the Rockets came out on top. Edmonson said the way the Rockets are playing now will help come next season.

“Some of these young guys who have been playing all summer, in the springtime it’s going to be interesting.” he said.

“They’re going to push for a lot of spots. It’s going to be a lot of competition in the spring for spots out here, because we’ve got a lot of guys who can play.

seeking players

Submitted The Rotary Desert Sun Golf Classsic is looking for players for its 25th annual tournament, which will be held July 17-19 at Roswell’s Nancy Lopez Golf Course at Spring River.

The event is a PGA-sanctioned, two-day, 36-hole, Pro-Am tournament using USGA rules. Professionals will play for an estimated $23,000 in prize money, while amateurs compete for over $12,000 in pro shop credits at Nancy Lopez. This year’s event specifically honors the memory of Brett Leach and proceeds from the tournament will benefit CASA and ENMU-Roswell scholarship. It is presented annually by the Roswell Rotary Club, Pecos Valley Rotary Club and Sunrise Rotary Club. The major sponsor of the tournament is Desert Sun Motors of Roswell.

The first day of medal play will pair each professional with three amateurs for a best-ball team competition. This is a “tournament within the tournament.” At the same time each player will be playing the first 18 holes of the medal play event. Pro-Am teams will compete for $2,000 in pro shop credits with separate payoffs for morning and afternoon teams. Day two will see

Jason Day, of Australia, reacts after missing his par putt on the second hole during the third round of the U.S. Open tournament at Chambers Bay on Saturday in University Place, Wash. go and a course that is getting faster and scarier by the day. And he has plenty of company.

Spieth, trying to become only the fourth player since 1960 to win the first two legs of the Grand Slam, squandered three birdie chances late in his round and had to settle for a 71.

Johnson twice smashed driver that set him up for birdies down the stretch, and he couldn’t convert in his round of 70.

Grace overcame a rough patch in the middle of his round — three bogeys in five holes — and shot a 70.

Day wasn’t sure he would even play in the third round. He collapsed to the ground Friday in a frightening moment. He managed to get up with help, stagger into a bunker to play his next shot and made bogey to finish three shots out of the lead.

And then he delivered one of his best rounds con-

sidering the situation.

Day chose not to speak to the media out of sheer exhaustion. He offered a few comments to a USGA official, and then headed to his motor home to lie down.

“I didn’t feel that great coming out early,” said Day, who dropped two shots in his opening four holes to fall as many as seven shots behind at one point. “I felt pretty groggy on the front nine just from the drugs that I had in my system, then kind of flushed that out on the back nine. The vertigo came back a little bit on the 13th tee box, and then felt nauseous all day. I started shaking on 16 tee box and then just tried to get it in, really. Just wanted to get it in.”

He said it was worse than the vertigo he suffered last year at Firestone that caused him to withdraw.

This time, he kept playing.

For us to come out here and take four games today.

To beat Carlsbad. Beat a team that’s loaded up with a bunch of players from all over that were pretty darn good. We’ve been impressed with what we’re seeing.”

The Rockets will see Carlsbad again in Sunday’s championship game, scheduled for 4:40 p.m.

reliever “was just a little bit tired. That’s the first time we’ve used him that long, in that many innings. He threw well. He threw really good and we’re looking forward to throwing him again. We’ll use him a lot more this coming season.”

As for Carrillo, “He did really good,” Marrujo said.

“He’s been a good starter for us all summer. He throws a lot of strikes and keeps consistency.”

Bear Kyser got the final out, but not before walking one in. Still, with 11 hits on the day, including an inside the park home run by Nick Palomino in the fifth — Palomino was 4-for-4 on the day — Marrujo was a lot happier than after earlier games.

“We finally swung it really well,” he said. “Been working real hard in the cage this past couple of days, so they came out and hit the ball real hard.”

The Reapers couldn’t get on the winning track in their morning game, falling 7-2 to Hobbs, and, Marrujo said, it was the “Same thing as yesterday. Just didn’t get the bats moving.”

The Eagles went up 2-0 in the first and never trailed, adding two runs in the second and three in the fifth. The lone Roswell runs came in the second and sixth. In the second, with two outs, Renteria reached on an error, advanced on a wild pitch then came home on a second error. Castillo hit a solid shot over the fence in the sixth, touching all the bases.

The Hobbs pitcher held the Reapers to only three hits — the home run and two singles by Renteria, while Evans only allowed eight for the Eagles while striking out three.

Marrujo said the Reapers are looking to get their second summer win Sunday against Hobbs.

“I think the boys understand and they’re ready to go,” he said. “Real excited after today’s win and looking forward to tomorrow.”

That game is set for 11:30 a.m. at Goddard.

Roswell picks up win against Artesia The fourth time was the charm for the Roswell Reapers (the summer name for the RHS Coyotes) in the Southwest Baseball Tournament, as they went up 2-0 versus Artesia in the first inning of the first bracked game then had to hang on for a 12-10 victory.

Both teams looked sloppy in the field, and errors and pitching miscues contributed to a lot of runs.

Both teams also staved off bases-loaded situations, but in the end, the Roswell bats finally saw some life and a fly-ball out had everyone breathing easy after a sixth inning comeback by Artesia.

The Raptors scored in every inning but one, putting two runs on in the first; one in the second; two in the third; three in the fifth and four in the sixth. The Bulldogs added a trio of runs in the second off starter JoJo Carrillo, and Chris Carpenter had a solid relief stint until the sixth, which, by virture of the time limit, was going to be the last inning anyway.

But Carpenter couldn’t get the final out, the Artesia bats got hot and the fielding got sloppy. Leading 12-4, the Reapers gave up six runs before getting that final out.

“I think we just got real relaxed and didn’t come out and finish. Didn’t finish, just relaxed,” said Roswell coach Carlos Marrujo.

He was very pleased with both Carrillo and Carpenter’s efforts, noting the

“I think the goal was just to go through today and see how it goes,” he said.

For everyone else, it was a matter of hanging on.

Spieth, Johnson and Grace each had the lead at one point on the front nine.

Spieth holed a pair of 35-foot birdie putts early and stretched his lead to three shots until he gave them back with a pair of three-putts, slapping his knee at the mistakes. He held on with some key pars, rolled in a birdie at the 15th to get back into a share of the lead, and then wasted three great opportunities — three putts from just off the 16th green for a par, a missed 10-foot birdie on the 17th and a 12-foot birdie putt that missed on the final hole.

“Just need to limit the mistakes tomorrow,” he said.

In this May 16 file photo, Sweet Briar College graduates gather to have their photographs taken by family members before commencement at the school in Sweet Briar, Va. Virginia’s attorney general announced a mediated settlement Saturday to keep open Sweet Briar College, using $12 million raised by fiercely determined alumnae to keep the women’s college afloat in the upcoming academic year and sweeping out leadership of the 114-year-old school.

SWEET BRIAR, Va. (AP) — Virginia’s attorney general announced a mediated settlement Saturday to keep open Sweet Briar College, using $12 million raised by fiercely determined alumnae to keep the women’s college afloat in the upcoming academic year and sweeping out leadership of the 114-year-old school.

Attorney General Mark Herring said the resolution came after hundreds of hours of negotiations involving the college, the local county attorney fighting its closure and the money-raising nonprofit, Saving Sweet Briar Inc. The announcement of a rescue plan ended months frantic efforts to save the school, litigation that reached the state’s highest court, and national ruminations on the future of all-female higher education.

Herring said the agreement would be presented to a judge on Monday for his approval and final settlement. If approved, it would also end litigation aimed at blocking the college’s closure.

“Looking back, all parties wanted to preserve the legacy of the college, one through orderly closure, and the other by keeping the college open,” Herring said in a statement. “Both sides displayed the courage of Sweet Briar alumnae.”

In early May, leaders of the liberal arts college cited insurmountable financial challenges as the reason for the planned closure.

They cited mounting debt, deferred maintenance on the historic 3,250-acre campus in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains and declining enrollment. The school was scheduled to shutter in late August.

The administration’s claim of a dire financial situation was challenged almost immediately by alumnae, students and faculty. They questioned whether the college’s finances were as dire as depicted.

Sarah Clement, chairwoman of Saving Sweet Briar, said the settlement “is an answer to the prayers for many and a powerful validation of the value of fighting for what you believe in.”

Higher education experts, while acknowledging the steady erosion in the number of women’s colleges, were surprised nonetheless that Sweet Briar’s leaders had originally acted so quickly in their decision to close. They cited a sizeable endowment as one reason of wonderment.

Herring, a likely Democratic candidate for governor, had been the target of criticism from some alumnae who believed he should have led the legal challenge to keep the college from closing. His office brought together all the principals

in hopes of reaching such a resolution.

“The agreed settlement certainly is better for all parties than continued litigation, and more importantly, Sweet Briar College will stay open,” he said in a statement.

While many students have made plans to attend other schools, many said they would return to Sweet Briar if they could. Some schools to which they transferred said they would allow students to return if Sweet Briar was resurrected.

Sweet Briar had about 530 students in the spring semester.

Amherst County Attorney Ellen Bowyer had led the court fight to keep Sweet Briar open, arguing that the institute that operated the school was a trust and subject to court approval. The college argued it was a corporation and did not need a judge’s blessing to make a business decision.

In a statement, Bowyer credited Saving Sweet Briar Inc., which launched the fundraising effort soon after President James Jones and the board announced the planned closure.

“The strength of faith the alumnae have demonstrated in their college is extraordinary, and will stand the college in good stead in the future,” she said.

Sweet Briar issued a statement on the settlement: “While the current members of the board will be stepping down as part of this settlement, all of the directors offer their best wishes to the college’s new leadership and the assurance of any support that may be requested. “ Other key elements of the settlement: — The easing of restrictions on $16 million from the college’s endowment.

— Saving Sweet Briar will deliver the first installment on the $12 million in donations with a $2.5 million payment by July 2. Bowyer and the group believe the funds are sufficient through the upcoming academic year.

— Once the court approves the agreement, at 13 members of the board would resign and at least 18 new members will be elected, creating a majority. A list of candidates would be supplied by opponents of the planned closing.

— Seven days after the settlement is approved by a judge, Jones would resign.

“Sweet Briar is open for business,” said Teresa Tomlinson, mayor of Columbus Georgia and Sweet Briar College’s 2015 commencement speaker. “If you want your daughters to be a woman of courage, leadership and capability, send her to Sweet Briar.”

Police check out new lead on escaped New York prisoners FRIENDSHIP, N.Y. (AP) — The search for two killers landed Saturday in New York’s southern tier near the Pennsylvania border, about 350 miles from the prison where they escaped two weeks ago.

New York State Police spokesman Beau Duffy said officers were investigating a possible sighting of the prisoners in Allegany County near the Pennsylvania border.

A person spotted two men Saturday near a railroad line that runs along Route 20 in the town of Friendship, state police said, and police concentrated the search in the area along the route and Interstate 86.

David Sweat and Richard Matt escaped June 6 from the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, near

the Canadian border. The two broke out of the maximum-security prison using power tools and leaving behind dummies under bedcovers in their adjoining cells.

A door-to-door search involving up to 800 law enforcement officers has been underway since then, concentrated in a several-mile radius of woods and fields around the prison in the Adirondacks.

State police moved the search command post from the prison Saturday to nearby Cadyville and focused attention on the other side of the state. They advised the public to report any suspicious activity and asked residents who live in the Friendship area along the New York-Pennsylvania border to be on alert.

The two men are “very dangerous” and should not be approached, state police said.

Authorities said Friday that two men fitting the description of Sweat and Matt had been seen a week ago in Steuben County, east of Allegany County. Two men were seen walking near a rail yard in Erwin on June 13, and then seen the next day in Lindley, New York, heading toward the Pennsylvania border.

Investigators conducted interviews in both communities and have surveillance video that was initially deemed inconclusive but was being sent to Albany for analysis.

Sweat, 35, was serving a

Matt, 48, was doing 25 years to life for the 1997 kidnap, torture and hacksaw dismemberment of his former boss.

Prison worker Joyce Mitchell remained in custody Saturday on charges she helped the two men escape by providing them hacksaw blades, chisels and other tools. She has pleaded not guilty.

Officials said a corrections officer also has been placed on administrative leave as part of the investigation into the men’s escape. The state Department of Corrections and Community Supervision said no additional information was available.

Clinton says US Presidential candidate Rand Paul must face ‘hard is planning to ‘blow up’ tax code truths’ about guns LAS VEGAS (AP) — Hillary Rodham Clinton said Thursday the country has to face “hard truths” about guns and race in the wake of a shooting at a historically black church in South Carolina that left nine dead.

“How many innocent people in our country, from little children to church members to movie theater attendees, how many people do we need to see cut down before we act?” the Democratic presidential candidate said during a speech in Las Vegas, alluding to mass shootings a Connecticut elementary school and Colorado movie theater.

Clinton spoke at a meeting of the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, an event that afforded her the opportunity to campaign before a largely supportive crowd of Hispanic politicians. But campaign politics were overshadowed by the late Thursday slaying of nine people at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina.

Clinton had campaigned in Charleston earlier on Thursday, and said she learned of the attack after she landed in Las Vegas.

As did President Barack Obama earlier in the day, Clinton said this latest incident involving the killing of several people required a reckoning with the country’s history of gun violence.

“In order to make sense of it we have to be honest,” she said. “We have to face hard truths about race, violence, guns and division.”

In an interview later Thursday with Nevada journalist Jon Ralston,

Clinton embraced the idea of universal background checks. “Let’s just cut to the chase,” she said. “It’s guns.”

The suspect in the shooting, Dylann Storm Roof, 21, was described as an apparent “disaffected white supremacist” by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

The Justice Department said it had started a hate crime investigation.

The prospect that race played a role in the shooting hung over Clinton’s remarks. Speaking of critics of immigrants, Clinton said: “When I hear words of hatred and anger directed at any of our fellow human beings I ask myself, ‘What is motivating that?’”

In an email to supporters, Clinton’s rival for the Democratic nomination, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, called the shooting “an act of terror.”

“Nine of our fellow Americans were murdered while praying in a historic church because of the color of their skin,” Sander said, adding: “This hateful killing is a horrific reminder that, while we have made important progress in civil rights for all of our people, we are far from eradicating racism.”

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, had planned to campaign in Charleston on Thursday, but he canceled his event in the wake of the attack.

“Our hearts are broken at the senseless loss of life,” Bush said in a statement. “Our prayers are for the community that has lost its pastor and a brave leader. May the families and the city of Charleston be lifted up by the prayers of our entire nation.”

NEW YORK (AP) — An emotional former President George W. Bush credited becoming a father with helping him stop drinking, as he was honored Thursday as a “Father of the Year,” just days before Father’s Day. Bush and two other men were recognized at the 74th Annual Father of the Year Awards luncheon at the New York Hilton hotel. His daughter, Barbara, made the presentation.

In receiving the award, Bush paid tribute to his own father, former President George H.W. Bush.

The birth of his daughters brought a new priority to his world, Bush said.

“I think the most important priority for a dad is to be a dad. In my case, I might have been slightly self-absorbed at times, but when I became a dad, I only had one real job and that was to provide for these little girls. Was I

always successful? I don’t know. They can be the witnesses.”

He said he didn’t think he would have quit drinking if he hadn’t become a father.

“You see, what happened to me was alcohol was becoming a love. It was beginning to crowd out my affections for most important love, if you’re a dad, and that’s loving your little girls. And so, fatherhood meant sobriety.”

Also receiving recognition from the National Father’s Day Committee was Morris Goldfarb, the head of the G-III Apparel Group.

David Gonzales of Jacksonville, Florida, was recognized as the Ashok Sani “All-Star” dad. It recognizes a special father who is committed to both his own children and his community.

The luncheon raised $1.3 million for Save the Children’s U.S. programs.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican presidential candidate Rand Paul called Thursday for a “fair and flat tax” that would “blow up” the nation’s tax code, offering a proposal his campaign said would cut taxes by $2 trillion over the next decade.

The first-term senator from Kentucky released the outline of a plan to institute a 14.5 percent income tax rate on all individuals and on businesses. It was among the first major policy proposals released by Paul’s presidential campaign, although he did not make the full plan available for review.

“Basically my conclusion is the tax code can’t be fixed and should be scrapped,” he said in an interview with The Associated Press. “We should start over.”

Many of the dozen major Republican candidates for president list tax reform among their priorities. Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, for example, is among the GOP contenders calling for the wholesale abolition of the Internal Revenue Service — a position many experts say is unrealistic.

But few have offered detailed proposals, and while Paul said his plan would benefit American both rich and poor, he cited an independent analysis that his cam-

In a column describing highlights of his plan published Thursday in The Wall Street Journal, Paul called for the outright elimination of payroll taxes on workers and of several other federal taxes, including those on gifts and estates, telephone service and all duties and tariffs. He also proposed eliminating all corporate tax subsidies and personal tax deductions, except those for mortgage interest and charitable donations.

Paul says the first $50,000 of income for a family of four would

not be taxed and the earned-income tax credit would be preserved.

“In Washington, most Republicans are very tepid and very uninspiring on tax policy,” he said in the interview.

It was not clear how Paul would ensure cutting taxes so deeply would not at the same time explode the nation’s debt. He wrote in the column that his plan would “reduce the national debt by trillions of dollars over time when combined with my package of spending cuts,” but he did not detail those cuts.

In the interview, Paul referred to his previous

budget proposals, which include sweeping cuts in foreign and domestic spending. In particular, he has previously called to eliminate all aid to foreign governments, including Israel. He has also proposed eliminating the federal departments of education, energy and housing and urban affairs.

He noted, however, he’s also called for increased national security spending in his most recent spending plans. “I think that the priority for spending is national defense and national security so we don’t have significant cuts in our preparedness,” he said.

Sanders emerges as a Clinton challenger

INDIANOLA, Iowa (AP) — Bernie Sanders likes to call it “practicing democracy.”

He doesn’t take the stage to a blaring soundtrack. He doesn’t have a teleprompter or a phalanx of Secret Service agents surrounding him. But when his Brooklyn accent booms out at a campaign stop in rural Iowa, heads nod along in approval.

“What I’m doing in this campaign is trying to tell the people the truth — but a truth which is not heard a whole lot in Washington or discussed a lot in the media,” Sanders said recently at a picnic in Iowa’s Warren County, south of Des Moines.

“So let me lay it out on the table for you,” he said. “You’re living in a country today which has more wealth and income inequality than any major industrialized nation on earth.”

and the gap between the rich and poor is working for Sanders. The independent senator from Vermont is an unconventional messenger at a time when many politicians testdrive what they want to say in polls and with focus groups.

Sanders is drawing sizable crowds in the early voting states. He’s also gaining against Clinton in very early polls, particularly in New Hampshire, a factor that impresses the political class even though opinion surveys at this point are limited in predicting who will win.

Clinton remains the race’s overwhelming favorite, but there’s no question that the 73-year-old self-described democratic socialist, whose disheveled white hair might remind some of Doc Brown from “Back to the Future,” isn’t just a novelty.

anola. “This guy has only one standard. If it’s right for people, he’s going to fight for it. If it’s bad for people, he’s going to take a stand against it.”

Drawing unexpectedly large crowds, the campaign has moved a town meeting planned in Las Vegas on Friday into a more spacious venue. About 5,000 people are expected at a rally Saturday at the University of Denver.

“The challenge for us, really, is that at this point the crowds are way ahead of us,” said Sanders campaign manager Jeff Weaver.

Sanders is running with a relentless focus on policy. He rarely talks about his family, other than mentioning his four children and 7 grandchildren when explaining the importance of confronting climate change. In Minneapolis he was joined on stage by his wife, Jane, and noted they had just celebrated their 27th wedding anniversary.

He’s promoting a massive

government-led jobs program to fix roads and bridges. He wants a $15-an-hour minimum wage, and higher taxes on the wealthy and Wall Street. He advocates for a sin-

gle-payer health care system, an expansion of Social Security benefits and debt-free college.

He’s combative, too.

Sanders often points to

some European and Scandinavian countries that provide subsidized or free education, universal health care and generous family leave policies as models for the U.S.

versation. Don’t assume you know what they are about to say. Tonight: Out late.

This Week: Don’t hold back any longer. Speak your mind!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You might want to take yourself off the social stage and spend some quality time with a loved one. Get out of the house.

Enjoy a mutually preferred pastime that allows both of you to catch up on news.

Come from a grounded point of view. Tonight: Take your time.

This Week: Handle your finances with precision.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22)HHHH You can be found with friends or in a situation where you might enjoy celebrating the advent of summer. You could be holding a grudge against someone you really care about. Clear the air while everyone is light and easy. Tonight: Making up might be a lot of fun.

This Week: You enter the week with magnetism and style.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You might want some time alone, as you could be overworked or perhaps you have enjoyed yourself too much. Pressure builds around an older parent and/or a professional matter. You might have little choice as to what you should do right now.

Tonight: Out and about.

This Week: Do not get too entrenched in your feelings Monday or Tuesday.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You have felt pressured of late, but suddenly you’ll gain a broader perspective and see no reason to be so tense. Detachment needs to become a routine in your life. Consider how you could achieve this state more frequently.

Tonight: Where the crowds are.

This Week: Use Monday and Tuesday to the max.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov.

22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You will need to do a better job listening. How you visualize a matter involving a respected friend might be instrumental in how you decide to approach a conversation. Don’t worry so much about a choice you are about to make. Tonight: Get feedback over dinner.

This Week: Assume your role as the leader.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Many people seek you out, but you know who you want to be with. Allow greater giveand-take with a loved one.

You might consider making an adjustment that this person has asked for, as your relationship is likely to benefit. Tonight: The only response is “yes.”

This Week: Detach and reflect before making any important decisions.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH A partner might make a request that you would prefer not to meet. You seem to have

had enough of bending and giving. Speak your mind, but avoid creating uproar.

Understand that this person shows his or her caring through making requests.

Tonight: Relax.

This Week: One-on-one relating adds to the theme of teamwork.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You’ll feel the winds of summer warm up a relationship. If you are single, you seem to attract several potential suitors without batting an eye. Be open to celebrate the day, but don’t make any major commitments. Tonight: Follow a friend’s lead.

This Week: Everyone seems determined to have his or her way. Just give in.

Mary and Rick Hale are the recipients of the Commitment to Youth award and the Outstanding Leader award respectively.

By Christina Stock Vision Editor Among others this year, a husband and wife-team, Rick and Mary Hale, have been chosen to be recognized — each for their own merit.

Both agree that their marriage has helped them achieve their goals. They are now at a time in their life when they are passing the staff on to the next generation.

“We are equipping leaders. Teaching what is important, being responsible and having values,” Mary said.

Rick said, “Especially in the last 15 years, I saw my calling in getting people together and building new leaders.”

The Commitment to Youth Award will be presented to Mary Hale. This award recognizes those with a documented history of giving personal time to youth activities spanning

many years and known for their high moral standards, commitment to youth and respect in the community.

Mary has worked with youth in Roswell for more than 38 years. She began serving Roswell youth as a band director at Mountain View Middle School and assistant band director at Roswell High School.

While serving with Rick at Christ’s Church, Mary led a children’s choir with more than 100 students.

Mary has also trained the next generation of musicians as the director of music at Grace Community Church for more than 16 years.

Concerned about the school system removing fine arts from the curriculum, Mary chose to make a difference by starting the Fine Arts Camp for children and teenagers hosted at Grace Community Church.

“After reading ‘The

Dreamgiver,’ a book by best-selling author Bruce Wilkinson, I thought now is the time to take that leap of faith,” Mary said. “We started with 12 instructors including myself and over the past 12 years, this Fine Arts Camp has helped inspire 3,400 students.”

Mary continues, “This year is special, over 30 of our 120 instructors and staff are former students, who came back to teach themselves.”

Hale encourages interested parents to call in.

Though it is not guaranteed, there might still be a spot for this year’s summer fine arts camp available for their child. They also offer scholarships.

Call 637-0524 or stop by at the church office at 935 W. Mescalero Road. The Fine Arts Camp is for boys and girls entering first through seventh grade and See HALES, Page C2

Pecos will be smokin’ Friday, Saturday

By Christina Stock Vision Editor

The Kansas City Barbecue Society sanctioned Smokin’ on the Pecos, New Mexico’s State BBQ Championship takes place in Artesia on June 26 and 27.

This is for serious barbecue lovers.

It is more than a hobby, and more than fun and games for the competing teams who are trying to win $16,000 of prize money. It is a way of life. Many participants travel from event to event through the U.S. and even overseas.

David and Vickie Grousnick are the organizers who brought the event to Artesia four years ago. Since then kick-off is every year with a judging class, taught by an experienced KCBS judge and table captain for those who want to know what it takes to win and those,

who enjoy real good barbecue — a table captain helps the judges and has a more intense training about KCBS regulations. This class should come with a warning: “It is addictive.”

This year a student from London, United Kingdom is arriving for Smokin’ on the Pecos to become a judge.

His name is Will Griffiths, a 32-year-old energy consultant.

“One day I hope to bring together my experiences of ‘British barbecue’ together with some of the magic of American barbecue, perhaps to create a different kind of barbecue in the UK,” he said.

What many Europeans and even Americans consider “barbecue” is actually grilling — fast searing of meat over a gas or charcoal grill. The authentic barbecuing that happens at Smokin’ on the Pecos is low and slow and involves

The Smokin’ on the Pecos Shootout is hosted by the Bandaleros Cowboy Mounted Shooting Club and will be both Friday and Saturday. controlled heat and wood smoke to give the meat that distinct flavor.

“I was reading the Kansas City Barbecue Society website as part of my barbecue research and was particularly interested in contests,” Griffiths said. “Barbecue

contests don’t really exist in the UK, so I was eager to experience that culture which seems to be a big part of authentic American barbecue.”

Griffith continues, “Also, I figured that a great way to learn about how to create great barbecue, I should learn what to look for which is why the judging class sounded great. Smokin’ on the Pecos was an event which was hosting a judging class so I thought I’d get in touch. I thought if I can learn about what ‘great’ barbecue should be like, then maybe I can start to work towards making it myself. And having to eat loads of great food sounded like a great job. I am visiting some famous barbecue towns and restaurants on my trip, but Smoking

on the Pecos seems like a great way to see what barbecue means on a community level, bringing families, friends and visitors together.”

Anybody who would like to become a judge together with Griffiths can still sign up for the class on Friday, from 8 a.m. to noon.

The fee is $85 ($40 for current KCBS members) and includes the KCBS membership, name tag, oneyear subscription to their newspaper with all the events a judge can sign up and more. The training will take place at the Eddy County Fairgrounds, 3402 S. 13th St. in Artesia. More information is available at smokinonthepecos.com or See PECOS, Page C2

Again this year, the Saturday championship performance will be televised nationally as part of the Cinch High School Rodeo Tour telecast series on RFD-TV. Live broadcasts of each NJHFR performance will also air online at nhsratv.com. Performance times are 7 p.m. today and

9 a.m. and 7 p.m. every other day.

Along with great rodeo competition and the chance to meet new friends from around the world, NJHFR contestants have the opportunity to enjoy shooting sports, volleyball, tugof-war, contestant dances, family oriented activities, church services sponsored by the Fellowship of Christian Cowboys and shopping at the NJHFR trade show as well as visiting area attractions as Des Moines, Iowa hosts the NJHFR for the first time.

C4 Sunday, June 21, 2015 Dear Abby

Universal Press Syndicate DEAR ABBY: I have a dilemma. Last year my son became a professional in his sport, and he has recently become famous. Since then, everyone is asking for tickets to games because they want in on the action. I treated one relative who lives near me to a game with her son, and now her sister (with whom I’ve had very little contact) is saying she follows the games and would love to attend.

My son gets tickets, but they are not free and they do cost him something. It’s becoming very stressful for him.

Friends and family from all over

Comics now ask him for tickets. I don’t want to impose upon him for other than immediate family.

How do I tactfully tell these people that I won’t ask? I don’t want it to sound like HE doesn’t want to do it. I want it to come from a concerned mom who simply doesn’t get tickets for everyone, so they need to go online and buy them like normal people do.

PROFESSIONAL DILEMMA DEAR P.D.: These people may not realize they are being presumptuous. Tell them frankly, the same way you explained it to me, that the tickets aren’t free to the players. These people may not be aware of it, and it should bring them back to reality.

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: A good friend of mine began having trouble in her marriage of 16 years. She has been coming to me for advice. Her husband has grown distant and

refuses physical interaction. He speaks to her as if he is always irritated with her.

The reason she seeks my advice is because I’m going through a divorce and my husband exhibited the same signs.

I have tried to give her the best advice I can, but now she’s implying that her husband is attracted to me! It makes me very uncomfortable since I haven’t done anything wrong. What should I do?

WALKING ON EGGSHELLS DEAR WALKING ON EGGSHELLS: Your friend is an emotional wreck right now. Because her husband hasn’t given her the reason he is emotionally abusing her, she’s desperately looking for a reason. A step in the right direction would be to assure her that you are not, never were, and never will be attracted to her husband. Then suggest that she may need more support than you can give her and she might find it helpful to talk to a professional counselor.

Roswell Daily Record

DEAR ABBY: I was an invited guest at a dinner party along with a few other couples. During conversation, one of the guests mean-spiritedly used the N-word twice. I was appalled.

Because it was not my home, I said nothing.

Please tell me how I could have handled this to let the bigot know this wasn’t acceptable and was just plain wrong.

I no longer respect this person, and I’m not sure I want to associate with him or even be in his company again.

SHOULD HAVE SPOKEN UP DEAR SHOULD HAVE SPOKEN UP: If you choose to avoid the person, that’s your privilege and it’s fine with me. There’s a saying, “All that’s needed for evil to flourish is for good people to say nothing.” It would not have been rude to have said, “Please don’t use that word around me, because I find it offensive.”

Hints

from Heloise

King Features Syndicate Dear Readers: Here is this week’s SOUND OFF, about items rusting: “My Sound Off is about things that are supposed to get wet, but when they do, they get rust. I’ve enclosed a photo. (Heloise here: The photo shows a string mop, with a metal ring about a third of the way down. Rust city!) I have rust on my bathroom basin and washing machine. Whoever made these products, didn’t they know they would get wet?”

Kathleen H., Camp Hill, Pa. Kathleen, I am as outraged as you. Call the manufacturers right now! This is absolutely ridiculous!

The metal ring around the mop is rusting? Huh? SHAME! Fight back.

Call the manufacturer; take the mop back to the store. DON’T buy that brand again.

Heloise

Dilbert

For Better or For Worse

SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 78279-5000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise.com

Dear Readers: Other items to use as a jewelry stand: • A coffee-mug holder.

• A cupcake stand.

• A large frame with a screen in it.

• A corkboard with decorative thumbtacks.

• A small branch from a dead tree.

I love the last hint! Eco-friendly, unique and simple to do. Give me a can of spray paint, red or black, for my bathroom (blue for the guest bath) and I’m ready to create. Oh yes, don’t like the way the color turned out? Just spray over it with a new one. How simple, cheap and fun!

Heloise HHHHH Dear Readers: As usual, you came through with wonderful hints for Carolyn from Texas. She had a spoon collection, many from her 30 years of teaching school.

Rita in Idaho wrote: “She can make wind chimes, rings or napkin rings with them. She also can top a kitchen gift as an ornament, or attach them to a wreath.”

S. Kangas in Philip, S.D., wrote: “My daughter received several from her grandmother, and she used ornament hooks to put the little spoons on her Christmas tree.

She thought of her grandmother every time she looked at the tree.”

Stacy in New Hampshire suggested: “Why not use her spoons as handles on her drawers, cabinets and other ‘handles’ throughout the house? This way she can revisit her travels every time she opens something.” Heloise here: Love this! Talk about happy memories every time you see or open a cabinet.

Catharine in Connecticut wrote: “Buy a glass-top table, coffee table or end table, and use a mounting underneath. Place them there with some soft lighting — what a conversation piece.”

Keep sharing your hints, folks!

Hugs, Heloise HHHHH Dear Heloise: Don’t throw away that old iron and ironing board! Keep them for crafting. I needed a new iron (the old one worked, but was beat up and dingy). I use the old one as my crafting iron. This way, the new one doesn’t get gunked up when I work on my sewing projects. Ironon patches, fusible webbing, etc., can gunk up an iron pretty quickly!

Moser then recalled standing up and getting hit in the chest. “I remember falling and landing on her,” she said.

Holmes’ lawyers will now begin calling their own psychiatrists and presenting other evidence to argue Holmes was in the grips of a psychotic episode at the time of the shootings and should be found not guilty by reason of insanity. They plan to begin their case Thursday.

The defense says Holmes’ mental illness distorted his sense of right and wrong, a key factor the jury must consider in determining if he was sane. Holmes’ attorneys say he should be committed to the state mental hospital.

Prosecutors are seeking the death penalty.

Holmes abandoned a prestigious graduate program at the University of Colorado-Denver before he opened fire at the suburban Denver movie theater where more than 400 people were watching the midnight premier.

Prosecutors showed jurors nearly 21 hours of Holmes’ videotaped interviews with a state-appointed psychiatrist who concluded Holmes was

Prosecutors rest their case in Colorado theater shooting

CENTENNIAL, Colo. (AP) — Prosecutors in the Colorado theater shooting trial rested Friday, concluding their argument that James Holmes methodically planned and executed the 2012 massacre in a case that relied heavily — over defense objections — on victims’ recollections of the carnage he inflicted inside the darkened cinema.

Over the past eight weeks, prosecutors weaved the testimony of experts and psychiatrists with the personal stories of survivors to try to convince jurors that Holmes was sane when he opened fire on a midnight showing of the Batman film “The Dark Knight Rises.” The former neuroscience student killed 12 people and wounded 70.

The prosecution called as their last witness Ashley Moser, who was paralyzed and suffered a miscarriage in the attack. Her 6-yearold daughter, Veronica, was killed.

Moser came to the witness stand in a motorized wheelchair. She described hearing what she thought were kids setting off fireworks in the theater, and wanting to leave. She reached for her daughter’s hand, but it slipped away.

seriously mentally ill but legally sane at the time of the shooting.

On the video, Holmes said he felt nothing as he took aim at fleeing moviegoers. Halting and awkward, he blurted out that he feared being stopped from committing what he acknowledged was a crime.

Prosecutors also took jurors on a video tour of the theater, the camera moving past bodies wedged between rows of seats or sprawled throughout aisles amid spent ammunition, spilled popcorn and blood. The footage, taken by an investigator, zoomed in on bullet fragments, bloody stairs and shoes left behind in the panic to escape.

Prosecutors introduced a brown spiral notebook Holmes kept titled “Of Life,” in which he scrawled a self-diagnosis of his “broken mind” and described an “obsession to kill” since childhood.

Holmes made lists of weapons he planned to buy and included detailed drawings of the theater complex, complete with pros and cons of attacking different auditoriums and police response times.

Brian Williams’ rehabilitation efforts begun

NEW YORK (AP) — Brian Williams said the months since his suspension from NBC News had been like torture, and a come-clean interview with colleague Matt Lauer on the “Today” show must surely have felt like an extension.

The humbled anchorman told Lauer in an interview that aired Friday that he let his ego get the better of him in telling stories that exaggerated his role in news reporting and that he intends to make the most of his second chance. But he admitted he had trouble accepting his punishment — being stripped of his job as “Nightly News” anchor and assigned to reporting news at MSNBC — although he’s now come to terms with it.

By the end of Friday’s televised portion of the interview, a line of perspiration ran down Williams’ face.

He said he was always careful with his words on the job, but “after work, when I got out of that building, when I got out of that realm, I used a double standard. Something changed. I was sloppier. I said things that weren’t true.”

He was suspended for falsely saying that a helicopter he flew in while reporting on the Iraq War in 2003 had been hit by enemy fire, although a subsequent NBC investigation turned up other incidents

of embellishment, most during talk show appearances. NBC hasn’t released its internal report on what it found, and Williams declined to address other incidents in the interview.

On the Iraq incident, he noted: “I told that story correctly for years before I told it incorrectly. I was not trying to mislead people. That to me is a huge difference.”

Asked by Lauer whether he knew when he told the story on “Nightly News” that it was untrue, Williams said no. “It came from a bad place,” he said. “It came from a sloppy choice of words. I told stories that were not true over the years, looking back it is very clear. I never intended to. It got mixed up. It just turned around in my mind.”

He said he had to have been driven by ego. “I had to be sharper, funnier, quicker than anybody else, put myself closer to the action,” he said.

Why he felt the need to do that is something he’s been analyzing. Williams did not say whether he has sought professional help in finding the root causes of his actions.

“It looked like he was made to get up before he had to walk the plank. I feel for the guy,” said Jason Maloni, an expert in crisis PR at Levick Strategic Communications. Maloni said he believed NBC will regret taking a man with a clear

connection to viewers off “Nightly News.”

“I could see clearly the lines he felt he needed to say — I own this, and it was my ego — but I could also see lines where deep down inside himself he felt a little attacked.”

Williams, who starts his new role at MSNBC in August, said that he is “fully aware of the second chance that I’ve been given and I don’t intend to squander it.” He said he’d go doorto-door if he could to win back the trust of viewers.

He also acknowledged that he “pushed back at first” at his punishment. He expressed support for Lester Holt, who filled in during Williams’ suspension and on Thursday was named the permanent new anchor of “Nightly News.”

“Was it my first choice?

No,” he said. “Obviously I wanted to return to my old job. I thought we had a good 10-year run.”

He had some tough reviews for his Friday performance. David Hinckley, in the New York Daily News, said Williams “buried his remorse under so many evasive responses, so much tortured jargon” that it sounded like he’s still trying to process what happened to him.

“It was a tortured mea culpa that didn’t close a chapter,” wrote Alessandra Stanley in The New York Times.
