Complaint charges Udall with IRS interference

BY JEFF TUCKER RECORD STAFF WRITER

A group formed to protect First Amendment political rights has filed a complaint with the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Ethics, charging New Mexico Sen. Tom Udall and other Senate Democrats with improperly interfering with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service.

The complaint filed by the Center for Competitive Politics on June 2 alleges

Udall and several other sitting Senate Democrats in 2012 improperly requested the tax agency shut down certain tax-exempt organizations in the midst of an election year and suppressed their First Amendment speech rights.

Udall’s office denied the allegations, saying the complaint is baseless and was filed by a group of Republican operatives in an attempt to generate unfavorable media coverage of Udall.

“This baseless ethics

complaint was filed by a group of political operatives to make political mischief,” Udall spokeswoman, Jennifer Talhelm, said Thursday. “Shadowy groups on both sides of the aisle are trying to skirt the law to sway elections and influence politicians with their money.”

The CCP is an Alexandria, Va.-based group that works to promote and defend First Amendment rights to free political speech, assembly and petition. Founded in 2005, the

CCP touts itself as the nation’s largest organization dedicated solely to protecting First Amendment political rights.

Udall is implicated in letters several Democrat senators wrote former IRS Commissioner Douglas Shulman in February and March of 2012, urging the IRS to impose a strict cap on the amount of political spending by tax-exempt, nonprofit groups.

In a Feb. 6, 2012, letter to Shulman signed by Udall and Sens. Michael Bennet,

D-Colo., Al Franken, DMinn., Jef f Merkley, DOre., Charles Schumer, DN.Y., Jeanne Shaheen, DN.H. and Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., the senators asked the IRS if it was investigating or intending to investigate whether groups designated as “social welfare” organizations were improperly engaged in a substantial or even predominant amount of campaign activity.

The senators urged Shulman to investigate their allegations.

The same group of senators, including Udall, wrote Shulman again on March 12, 2012, urging the IRS to regulate the political campaign activities of social welfare groups.

Federal law defines 501(c)4 groups as groups engaged exclusively in social welfare activities. The IRS, however, has allowed the 501(c)4 groups to venture into political activities as long as civic and chari-

During Independence Day, Americans remember all that makes this country great.

We celebrate the freedoms that were fought for us in the past so that we still fight to protect them today.

One symbol reminds us of all we have: The American flag.

Like all flags, there is a meaning behind its design.

There are several theories behind the choice of using red, white and blue. But the meaning behind the stars and stripes is the same.

The stripes are the original 13 colonies that settled in America. And the stars now stand for each of the 50 states.

But what about the colors? Many believe that red stands for the blood, war and courage, blue is justice and freedom and white is purity. Another belief is that white is for purity and innocence, red is hardness and valor and blue being the color of the chief, or presi-

The Gen. Douglas L. McBride Roswell Veterans Cemetery will officially open at 10 a.m. today with a memorial service and grand opening ceremony.

The community is invited to join the Chaves County Veterans Cemetery Board and local veterans at the cemetery, located on the north side of South Park Cemetery.

A process is in place to assist veterans’ families who need help paying for the burial costs.

The service will bring hundreds of people and several hundred motorcycles are also expected to be on hand for the ceremony.

“We will open on Friday, and we would like for everybody to be out there,” said Bert Eldridge, board member. “We hope to have 300 bikes, and we have

people coming from Taos and Albuquerque.

I think it will be pretty good.”

Families should contact Anderson-Bethany Funeral Home at 6225888 to complete the process, starting with the provision of a copy of the DD Form 214 for the deceased.

The Veterans Cemetery Committee is still seeking donations to pay for components of the work that need to be done prior to the opening. It is particularly important to get donations that will be used to purchase sod for the one-acre plot.

Tax-deductible donations can be made to Embrace Inc. at PO Box 4425 Roswell, NM 88202 or by calling Bert Eldridge at 4203527.

AerSale project to The tourists have landed: 2014 bring local revenue UFO Fest, CosmiCon begin today Roswell will be bringing in more revenue, thanks to a new project that AerSale is working on.

AerSale, a company that buys and leases airplanes, is working with Xtra Airways out of Boise, Idaho, to do maintenance on four 747s over the next four months.

“We basically take out all the interior, remove floorboards, and do a complete inspection of the aircraft looking for any corrosion, wiring issues, cracks, leaks, anything that doesn’t meet the inspection criteria,” said general manager Jim Barker.

Most of the corrosion that is found on an airplane is in the lavatories and in the galleries of the planes, said Valory Brakeman of the company’s human resources department.

The project is already underway, having started on June 24. The company hired 30 more people to work on the project, adding to the 60 mechanics they already have, Barker said.

There will also be 25 Xtra Airways workers who will be living in Roswell for the duration of the maintenance, living in the hotels and dining at local restaurants.

Barker said it is the first step of a relationship with the company.

“Going forward, their maintenance on their aircraft will be performed in Roswell,” he said.

This means that the company will be expanding, he said.

“We’ll have to build out our facility to support Xtra Airways and whatever maintenance and parts they may need or that they have,” Barker said.

UFO enthusiasts and skeptics and everyone in the middle have arrived in Roswell to participate in the 2014 UFO Festival and CosmiCon, the annual sci-fi/comic convention that coincides with the UFO Festival this year.

The UFO Festival celebrates one of the most debated incidents in history — the supposed crash landing of an alien craft near Roswell in the 1940s, according to the official festival website, ufofestivalroswell.com.

In July 1947, a mysterious object reportedly crashed on a ranch 30 miles north of Roswell.

The Roswell Ar my Air Field issued a statement claiming to have recovered a crashed “flying disk.” An article ran on the front page of the Roswell Daily

Record and the next day, RAAF changed its statement to say that the object was a weather balloon, not a flying disk as they previously reported.

This revised statement sparked immediate controversy and has continued to be a topic of debate more than 60 years later.

UFO festivities kicked off Thursday night with music and planetarium shows.

Planetarium shows continue today, along with guest speakers, authors and live entertainment.

Crash near Carlsbad Caverns Vet dies waiting leaves driver in critical condition for ambulance STAFF REPORT A driver is in critical condition following a single-vehicle crash either Thursday morning or Wednesday night near Carlsbad Caverns, the New Mexico State Police reported.

At approximately 6:50 a.m.

Thursday, state police of ficers responded to a crash on State Road 7 at the entrance of the Carlsbad Caverns National Park.

Visitors to the park spotted a badly damaged sports utility vehicle about 200- feet down a steep embankment near the visitor center, according to the National Park Service (NPS).

They alerted an employee who was arriving for work, and she made her way down the hillside. She found a male victim lying outside the vehicle, breathing but unconscious, and immediately called for help, according to NPS. An initial investigation on scene determined a 2006 Toyota SUV, driven by Clyde Elliott, 23, of Denton, Texas, was traveling north on S.R. 7. As he traveled north, he encountered a left-hand curve, according to the police report.

Elliott failed to negotiate the curve and drove off the east side of the roadway. Once off the road, the vehicle traveled down a canyon and rolled multiple times. Elliott was not wearing his seatbelt and was ejected.

A Denton, Texas, man is critically injured after he apparently ran off the road and into a canyon near the entrance of Carlsbad Caverns.

The victim may had been in the canyon since the night of July 2, but an exact time of the accident has not been determined, according to NPS. Elliott sustained multiple injuries in the crash and was flown from the scene by TriState to University Medical Center in El Paso, Texas.

Driver inattention has been determined as a contributing factor and it is unknown whether alcohol was a contributing factor, the crash reported stated.

An investigation is ongoing and anyone with information should call the state police at 505-827-9300.

Paul Bronston, a California emergency-room physician and chair of Ethics and Professional Policy Committee of the American College of Medical Quality, said it may sound ridiculous that staff had to call 911 but that practice is the standard at hospitals. Typically, an ambulance would arrive faster, and other factors can stall workers trying to rush patients to the emergency room on foot, he said.

“The question I would have (is) ... was there an AED (automated external defibrillator) on site as required?” he said.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A veteran who collapsed in an Albuquerque Veteran Affairs hospital cafeteria — 500 yards from the emergency room — died after waiting around 20 minutes for an ambulance, officials confirmed Thursday.

It took between 15 and 20 minutes for the ambulance to be dispatched and take the man from one building to the other, which is about a five-minute walk, officials at the hospital said.

Kirtland Air Force Medical Group personnel performed CPR until the ambulance arrived, VA spokeswoman Sonja Brown said.

Staff followed policy in calling 911 when the man collapsed on Monday, she said. “Our policy is under expedited review,” Brown said.

That policy is a local one, she said.

The man’s name hasn’t been released.

We must not be enemies A4 Friday, July 4, 2014

Howard Baker wrote his own epitaph.

The Tennessee Republican served in the Senate for 18 years — eight of them as his party’s leader — before retiring in 1984.

When he died recently at 88, we looked up a speech Baker gave in 1998, in which he described his leadership style.

“Very often,” he said, he found himself “engaged in fire-breathing, passionate debate” with fellow senators. But afterwards, “I would usually walk to the desk of my most recent antagonist, extend a hand of friendship, and solicit his support for the next issue for the following day.”

“People may think we’re crazy when we do that,” Baker continued. “Or perhaps they think our debates are fraudulent to begin with ... But we aren’t crazy and we aren’t frauds.

“This ritual is as natural as breathing here in the Senate, and it is as important as anything that happens in Washington or in the country we serve, for that matter. It signifies that, as Lincoln said, ‘We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be enemies.’”

EDITORIAL

OPINION

COKIE AND STEVEN ROBERTS

SYNDICATED COLUMNISTS

As we get older it’s tempting — and dangerous — to wallow in nostalgia for The Good Old Days, to believe that everything was better when we were more hopeful and less stained by disappointment.

But we both covered Congress during Baker’s tenure, and he’s right. The rituals of comity and compromise are critical to a functioning democracy. The United States Senate under his leadership was a far more productive and less rancorous place than it is today.

These days, lawmakers ignore Baker’s model and treat each other as enemies, even apostates, not as friends. Instead of shaking hands with their rivals, they stab them in the back.

As many obituary writers noted, Baker earned the sobri-

Roswell Daily Record

quet “The Great Conciliator.”

James A. Baker (no relation), who held several high posts in Republican administrations, eulogized the senator as “the quintessential mediator, negotiator and moderator.” His own stepmother, who served in Congress herself, once said of Baker, “He’s like the Tennessee River. He flows right down the middle.”

It’s hard to believe today, but those descriptions were all meant as high compliments. Baker’s overall voting record was pretty conservative. He served briefly as White House chief of staff during Ronald Reagan’s second term, and Nancy Reagan called him one of her husband’s “most valued advisors.”

Yet he defied ideological orthodoxy by working with Democrats to support stronger voting rights and tougher environmental rules, the Equal Rights Amendment and the Panama Canal Treaty. As a member of the Watergate commission, he helped bring down Richard Nixon, a fellow Republican, after he realized the president had broken the law.

Today, Howard Baker wouldn’t be praised for those practices;

he’d be challenged in a Republican primary as a heretic — just as his old friend Sen. Thad Cochran of Mississippi was recently assailed by the tea party for lacking sufficient purity.

Cochran barely survived and his opponent, Chris McDaniel, complained bitterly afterwards that GOP voters had abandoned “principle ... by once again compromising, by once again reaching against the aisle.”

He had it exactly wrong. It’s the McDaniels of the world, in both parties, who are violating the principles of democracy by denigrating compromise.

What forces shaped Howard Baker? And why have they lost their impact in today’s capital?

There are many complex answers to that question. He was a Navy veteran of World War II — a common experience that taught a whole generation of legislators about ideals and loyalties that transcend transient factionalism.

He came from a family that revered politics as a noble occupation: His father, stepmother, father-in-law and second wife all served in Congress. He came from a border state with two

strong parties and was succeeded in the Senate by a Democrat, Al Gore.

The word we keep coming back to, however, is “respect.” Baker respected his political foes, and he respected the institution they all served together. He knew that he was not always right, and he knew that at times the national interest had to come before partisan advantage.

As law professor Philip K. Howard wrote: “He had that rare quality — almost impossible to find in Washington nowadays — of moral authority. People trusted him.”

Yes, they did. According to one popular anecdote, a majority of Democratic senators would have supported him for president. And that story reveals the truth embedded in the epitaph Howard Baker wrote for himself.

When political rivals respect and even like each other, they aren’t crazy and they aren’t frauds.

They are Americans.

No good options for Snowden plea deal

Eclipsed by news in Iraq, the most important story in national security news is quietly, slowly unfolding right here at home.

The federal government is talking to Edward Snowden about a possible plea deal.

Negotiations are difficult, but proponents of a deal say we’re better off with Mr. Snowden than without him. For some, a plea bargain is the only way to bring him to justice. For others, it’s the best available means to protect him from life as a fugitive.

James Clapper, director of National Intelligence, says that estimate has been revised slightly downward. It also appears that federal officials have become somewhat less concerned about the security risk posed by those documents.

That’s raised rumors that Washington is willing to strike a real bargain with Snowden — if he accepts criminal liability for his actions.

Both the pro- and anti-Snowden case for a deal have their particular merits. Unfortunately for the American people, however, there are serious drawbacks to proceeding with either approach.

Letting Snowden go means letting go about one and a half-million documents — a trove for anyone who decides to capture or otherwise obtain Snowden’s cache. Even worse, leaving Snowden a fugitive will leave him in Russia, one of the places we’d least like him to be.

President Obama, however, just isn’t willing to pardon Snowden. Aside from questions of political principle, it would raise the ire of plenty of Obama’s critics, and some of his supporters.

A pardon would theoretically free up Snowden to exile himself somewhere less damaging to America’s interests. But officials believe that place to be the U.S. itself, not some quiet tropical island. The federal government has a powerful interest in taking custody of Snowden — not as a criminal, but as an asset.

That’s where things get problematic for the prospect of a plea deal. Washington loves hiring hackers. It’s been happening for years. There’s nothing a security state wants more than to monopolize the ability to steal information. One of the greatest benefits of recovering Snowden would be co-opting him once again in the infowars being conducted against America’s enemies and adversaries (and, some would add, allies).

Re-enlisting Snowden in America’s surveillance effort might appeal to the federal government. But for any American troubled by the size and scope of that effort to begin with, there’s something deeply wrong about any deal that uses Snowden to further the invasive practices he revealed to us.

Perversely, that kind of deal would not only embolden hackers, but draw more hackers into the corridors of government power. In that respect, it’s the worst of both worlds.

It’s hard to accept the idea that the status quo is the best option regarding Edward Snowden. But it’s easy to see how dissatisfying the alternatives can be.

REPRINTED FROM THE ORANGE COUNTY REGISTER

Is the American flag ‘a threat?’

It’s the very symbol of patriotism — Old Glory, as William Driver, a 19th-century American sea captain, nicknamed it. But even as we close in on Independence Day, more and more people across the country are calling the American flag a threat and inappropriate home garnishing.

A week ago, the landlord of a Texas man called the American flag “a threat to the Muslim community” and ordered him to remove it from his home, according to KHOU-TV. Duy T ran said the Stars and Stripes means a lot to him. Posting the flag was the least he could do, he said, especially in the light of his friends who died for this country.

Tran added: “What really

CHUCK NORRIS

SYNDICATED COLUMNIST

stunned me is that she said it’s a threat towards the Muslim community. I mean, I’m not a threat to (anybody).”

When KHOU-TV tried to confront the manager about the statement, she answered no questions, and the crew was escorted from the premises by a security officer with a note that read: “While the Lodge on El Dorado admires our resident’s patriotism, we must enforce our property rules and guidelines. Such

guidelines maintain the aesthetics of our apartment community and provide for the safety of all residents. The apartment community already proudly displays our country’s flag in a safe and appropriate manner at the entrances to our community.”

So even though Tran had hung his flag with proper etiquette from his balcony, it wasn’t “safe and appropriate”?

Are we now going to tell Americans that only one flag is allowed per 1,000 residents?

Tran rightly rejected that assault on his liberty, freedom and patriotism by saying, “I’m gonna leave my flag there, as an American, until she shows me proof that I don’t have the right to leave my flag there.”

That situation reminded me

of another one that happened just last summer.

KOVR-TV reported that former Army Spc. Jen Elliot, who was a heavy-wheeled vehicle operator and a .50-caliber gunner in Afghanistan before being blown into a wall there and receiving a traumatic brain injury, came home to her California apartment only to find an official violation on her door from property management stating that she could no longer fly her American flag from her balcony.

Elliot explained to KOVR-TV that she flew the Stars and Stripes because it reminded her of her Army unit overseas, which had incidentally lost six soldiers in the previous three months. She explained that

people who drink diet soda still have a higher risk for weight gain, Type 2 diabetes and heart disease than people who don’t drink diet soda.

There is some evidence that artificial sweeteners may affect the brain’s perception of sugars. They may increase a person’s appetite for sugars.

They may also interfere with the body’s natural ability to estimate calories based on how sweet a food is. Your body thinks that other sweet foods don’t have as many calories, either. So you may overeat sweet foods and drinks.

In any event, I’d advise you to try to cut down on both diet and regular soda. Reduce the size of your soda contain-

ers (cans usually have fewer ounces than bottles). Replace your soda with beverages that are naturally low in sugar: • Water: Flavor with a splash of fruit juice or a squeeze of lemon.

• Unsweetened iced or hot tea.

• Diluted juice: Mix 2 to 3 ounces of 100 percent juice with an equal amount of water. You’ll get half the sugar and calories.

• Low-fat milk: Low-fat milk has half as much sugar as soda and lots of nutrients.

• Coffee: If you add sugar to cof fee, try going “cold turkey.” You can acquire a

Diet sodas are not healthy substitutes for regular soda DEAR DOCTOR K: You often advise cutting out sugary soda drinks. Should I switch to diet soda?

DEAR READER: Sugary soda drinks have no place in a healthy diet. Excess sugar leads to weight gain — and obesity increases the risk of many serious health conditions, including heart disease and Type 2 diabetes. As I always say when giving dietary advice, I’m talking about a regular practice, not an occasional sin. If you like a non-diet (sugary) drink once in a while, enjoy it.

Multiple studies have shown that people who drink the largest amounts of soda are more likely to gain weight than people who drink the

smallest amounts. That’s not surprising when you consider that a 20-ounce bottle of soda can contain as many as 20 teaspoons — that’s 333 calories — of sugar.

Diet soda is made from artificial sweeteners that contain few or no calories. It may seem like the perfect alternative to regular soda, but researchers are finding that

she was particularly “upset and very offended” by the notice of violation because it demanded that she take down the flag for which she and her fellow comrades fought and still fight.

Elliot said she would move out before she would take down her American flag. She added: “It’s very important for me to have that up there. ... I’m not taking that flag down.”

Am I missing something? Do you remember the days when Americans not only used to be proud to fly Old Glory but frowned upon neighbors who did not? travesties These regarding flag flying wouldn’t be so tragic if they weren’t becoming so prevalent and symptomatic of an America moving away from its original mission and Founding Fathers’ intent.

So for this July Fourth, I say we not only fly Old Glory proud and high but also remind our families, friends co-workers and neighbors exactly why we do.

I agree wholeheartedly with Elliot, who concluded: “We live in America.

Why shouldn’t we fly our flag proudly?”

And what about those who oppose Old Glory’s posting?

Take your orders from Gen. Douglas MacArthur: “I see that the old flagpole still stands. Have our troops hoist the colors to its peak, and let no enemy ever haul them down.”

Then don’t hesitate for a moment to place your hand over your heart and say loudly and proudly for all to hear: “I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”

Then I realized that what I liked most about sodas was the carbonation. The “bite” of the fizz hitting the back of the throat was great, particularly when I was thirsty. Carbonated waters (flavored or unflavored, but without sugar or sweetener) served the purpose just as well.

Sanders family congratulates raffle winner

Submitted Photo The family of Roger Sanders would like to congratulate the winners of the Veteran in Need Raffle. A special thank you to Lori and Chris Green who spearheaded the event and the Roswell merchants who allowed the sale of the raffle tickets at their businesses. Sanders passed away June 10 after a long battle with cancer. The Sanders family would like to thank everyone who purchased tickets on his behalf.

LETTERS

Dear Editor, “Walk for Hope” is a fundraising event held each year that supports and raises money to assist community members with financial needs as they go through cancer treatment.

All proceeds raised go to Chaves County Cancer Fund Inc., an organization that has been financially assisting residents with cancer since 2006. In order for applicants to receive assistance, they must be a Chaves County resident and have a diagnosis of cancer. Roswell and the surrounding community have been extremely generous over the past several years to support this event.

On May 16, we held our fifth annual Walk for Hope Fundraiser and it was a huge success. This year we had more than 100 teams participate, 48 official sponsors, many more individual and group supporters and had approximately 5,500 people in attendance.

This event has grown from the first year of 850 people in attendance, 38 teams, and $20,000 raised in 2010. This year we hope to raise more than $60,000 after all of the monies have been received.

Of course, there is no way this event could be a success without the committed volunteers and financial support of so many dedicated people.

First, I would like to thank the planning committee and team for all of their hard work and many hours

needed to put this event together. They are: Artie Morrow, Tina Sanchez, Rita Kane-Doerhoefer, Jimmy Masters, David Rocha, Brittnye Lamb, Crystal Hester, Darryl Burkfield, Pebbles Cole-Irvin, Iris Smothermon, Wanda Porter, Sherri Miller and Jayla Irvin.

Next, I would like to thank all of our very generous sponsors who truly help us to raise the majority of our funds.

We start the evening with the Presentation of Colors by the Patriot Guard Riders and New Mexico Youth ChalleNGe Academy Color Guard, the American, New Mexico and military flags are represented, the national anthem sung, along with an opening prayer. The most special part of the evening is watching all of the cancer survivors in attendance take the first lap to start the event as participants follow behind to cheer them on. It is a celebration of those who have won their battle, support for those who are currently fighting

for their lives and honor to those who have gone on before us. Unless you have participated in one of the Walk for Hope events, you cannot fully appreciate the emotional response from the participants. It truly is one of the best ways you can experience the love and generosity of our community as they give of themselves so others can have some of their financial burdens relieved as they go through cancer treatment.

We are so blessed to live in such a kind and generous community. There are many other individuals and groups who also gave so generously but far too many to list. To each and every one of you who supported and participated in any way, please know that you have made a difference in the lives of those we help every year and our heartfelt thanks go out to each one of you.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The fire season has been relatively mild across the West this year, but officials in New Mexico and Arizona are doing what they can to rein in the use of fireworks given the dry conditions and high fire danger plaguing both states.

New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez has been pushing hard for cities and counties to restrict the use of fireworks with local ordinances.

New Mexico’s most populous cities are among the nearly two dozen municipalities and counties around the state that have already passed measures, but local and state land managers still fear the possibility of an uptick in fire activity heading into the Fourth of July holiday.

Dan Ware, a spokesman for the New Mexico State Forestry Division, said the state is experiencing one of its slowest fire seasons in the past decade. Still, nearly 90 percent of the 231 fires reported on state and private land so far this year have been caused by people.

Authorities say the human element, hot and windy weather and more opportunities to buy fireworks can make for a potentially dangerous combination.

“The big thing in the Albuquerque area is the use of illegal fireworks,” Ware said. “No matter how many times we say it, people are going to go and get illegal fireworks and shoot them off. We see it all the time.”

Just a week before the holiday, authorities

announced they would be closing national forest lands that border Albuquerque’s east side due to high fire danger.

Bernalillo County has banned all fireworks in wildland areas, including the foothills, throughout the East Mountains and along the Rio Grande.

The mountain communities of Angel Fire, Cimarron, Eagle Nest, Red River and Ruidoso have also limited the use of fireworks.

In Arizona, sales of fireworks are per missible statewide. But a recent change in state law means that cities in the state’s two most populous counties — Pima and Maricopa — cannot ban the use of the fireworks around the July 4 holiday.

Report shows US recovery is accelerating Roswell Daily Record

WASHINGTON (AP) — A surprisingly robust job market is energizing the 5year-old U.S. recovery and driving the economy closer to full health.

Employers added 288,000 jobs in June and helped cut the unemployment rate to 6.1 percent, the lowest since 2008. It was the fifth straight gain above 200,000 — the best such stretch since the late 1990s tech boom.

The stock market signaled its approval. The Dow Jones industrial average surged 92 points to top 17,000 for the first time.

The breadth and consistency of the job growth are striking in part because of how poorly the year began.

The economy shrank at a steep 2.9 percent annual rate in the January-March quarter as a harsh winter contributed to the sharpest contraction since the depths of the recession.

Yet employers have

shrugged off that setback.

They’ve kept hiring.

The unemployment rate dipped from 6.3 percent in May to its lowest level since the financial crisis struck with full force in the fall of 2008, when the Wall Street firm Lehman Brothers went bankrupt.

“This has now become a textbook jobs expansion,” said Patrick O’Keefe, director of economic research at the consultancy CohnReznick. “It is both broad and accelerating.”

At least one nagging doubt is dampening the enthusiasm: Can the stepped-up hiring lead to higher incomes? Wages have yet to outpace inflation for most workers.

Eventually, analysts say, the falling unemployment rate should cause pay to rise more sharply. But no one knows precisely when.

The jobs report did make clear that, five years after the recession of ficially

ended, the U.S. economy is showing more vitality even as major economies in Europe and Asia continue to struggle.

Last month’s solid hiring followed gains of 217,000 jobs in May and 304,000 in April, figures that were revised upward by a combined 29,000.

Over the past 12 months, the economy has added nearly 2.5 million jobs — an average of 208,000 a month, the fastest year-over-year pace since 2006.

Economists say the steady U.S. hiring should fuel more purchases of goods from Asia and Europe and strengthen those economies at least slightly. Much of Europe is suffering from high unemployment. And China is trying to moderate its economy’s growth without slowing it too much.

Young, active war wounded pushing medical science

SAN DIEGO (AP) — The blood is not the most jarring part of the photograph taken shortly after the bomb blew off Marine Gunnery Sgt. Brian Meyer’s leg and hand.

It’s his smile.

The bomb technician had asked a team member to take the picture. He knew his defiance in the face of death would keep his comrades going and ease the torment caused by what they had witnessed.

His attitude set the tone for the long journey the double amputee is taking along with nearly 2,000 troops who lost one or more limbs from combat injuries in Iraq and Afghanistan.

It’s also pushing military medicine to find better ways to accommodate such a large population of young, severely disabled combat veterans who want to maintain an active lifestyle. Many wear out their prosthetic limbs in a matter of months doing everything from mountain climbing to running marathons.

With survival rates reaching historic highs during the two wars, the Naval Health Research Center is launching a major, six-year study on wounded warriors to track their quality of life and

better understand the road to recovery.

So far, 1,500 people have signed up for the Wounded Warrior Recovery Project study. The Navy aims to recruit 10,000.

About 50,000 military personnel have been injured in the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, with 16,000 hurt so severely that they likely would not have survived previous conflicts.

Doctors say a positive attitude is key to recovery, so the study will also examine mental resilience and why some troops have it and others don’t. It will rely on Web-based, telephone and mailed surveys conducted every six months about mobility, ability to function and social activity.

Researchers will also analyze military databases detailing clinical encounters with each service member injured while deployed.

The study aims to provide one of the broadest reviews yet of how post 9-11 veterans with a variety of combat injuries are coping and enjoying life, and how much their quality of life impacts their long-term care.

Meyer is not yet part of the study but intends to participate.

SANTA FE (AP) — Republican Gov. Susana Martinez raised nearly $875,000 for her re-election campaign in the past month, which was more than twice as much as Democratic challenger Gary King.

King has collected $320,665 since late May, according to campaign finance reports filed Thursday.

Of King’s total receipts, $200,000 came from a loan by the candidate a few days after he won the Democratic gubernatorial nomination and prepared to start airing television advertising to counter an ad blitz by a national GOP group.

The latest reports cover fundraising from May 28 to June 28.

Martinez raised $874,752 and spent $860,054, with two-thirds of that going to produce and air TV and radio ads.

The governor had cashon-hand of $4.3 million in her re-election account as of last week.

King had a cash balance of $116,018.

His campaign spent $280,165, with $200,000 for ads that started on TV not quite a week after the June 3 primary election.

King had to start his general election campaign quickly to counter hard-hitting TV ads against him by the Republican Governors Association, which spent about $571,000 on its advertising barrage.

King has been outspent almost 6-to-1 on advertising by Martinez and the national GOP group.

Thursday was the deadline for candidates and political committees to file campaign finance reports with the secretary of state’s office.

Among the top contributors to Martinez were Texas real estate investor and developer Marcus Hiles and his wife, Nancy. Each gave $10,400, the maximum amount under state law.

California city is latest immigration flashpoint LOS ANGELES (AP) — When American flag-waving protesters forced busloads of migrants to leave Murrieta earlier this week, the Southern California city became the latest flashpoint in an intensifying immigration debate that could heat up even more as patriotism surges on the Fourth of July.

The city’s mayor has become a hero to those seeking stronger immigration policies with his criticism of the federal government’s efforts to handle the thousands of immigrants, many of them mothers and children, who have flooded the Texas border.

Some of those immigrants were flown to California and were supposed to be processed at a Border Patrol facility in Murrieta, a fast-growing community in the conservative-leaning Inland Empire region. But protesters blocked the road, forcing federal officials to take the immigrants elsewhere.

A second protest is planned for today, when another convoy of buses with immigrants is rumored to arrive.

“We’ve had it,” said Carol Schlaepfer, a retired Pomona resident who protested Tuesday in Murrieta. “We all want a better life. ... You can’t come to our country and expect American citizens to dole out what you need, from grade school till death.”

People on both sides of the issue want immigration reform, but immigrant rights advocates say antiillegal immigration protesters chastise the mostly

The senators asked the IRS to immediately change the administrative framework for enforcement of the tax code related to social welfare organizations because they said some of the tax-exempt groups are engaged in a substantial amount of political campaign activity.

“IRS regulations have long maintained that political campaign activity by a 501(c)(4) entity must not be the primary purpose of the organization,” the senators wrote. “These regulations are intended to implement the statute, which requires that such organizations be operated exclusively for the public welfare. But we think the existing IRS regulations run afoul of the law since they only require social welfare activities to be the primary purpose of a non-profit when the (tax) code says this must be its exclusive purpose. In recent years, this daylight between the law and the IRS regulations has been exploited by groups devoted chiefly to political election activities who operate behind a facade of charity work.”

The Democrat senators proposed three administrative changes to “bring IRS tax regulations back into alignment with the letter and spirit intended by those who crafted the (tax) code.”

The senators urged the IRS to adopt a “bright line test” in applying its primary purpose regulation to non-profit groups that are not “legitimate social welfare organizations.”

“The IRS currently only requires that the purpose of these nonprofits be primarily related to social welfare activities, without defining what primarily means,” Udall and the other senators wrote.

“Some have suggested 51 percent as an appropriate threshold for establishing that a nonprofit is adhering to its mission, but even this number would seem to

allow for more political election activity than should be permitted under the law.”

The senators threatened to write legislation defining a “bright line test” if the tax agency did not adopt such a test.

The senators also proposed that nonprofit groups be required to “show their math” to demonstrate that their political election activities do not violate the primary purpose regulation. “(S)uch organizations should be further obligated to document in their 990 IRS form the exact percentage of their undertakings dedicated to social welfare,” the senators wrote.

The senators also asked the IRS to begin requiring 501(c)(4) organizations to tell potential donors what percentage of a donation, if any, may be taken as a business expense deduction.

“We urge the IRS to take these steps immediately to prevent abuse of the tax code by political groups focused on federal election activities,” Udall and the other senators wrote. “But if the IRS is unable to issue administrative guidance in this area, then we plan to introduce legislation to accomplish these important changes.”

The CCP said the letters from the senators violated Senate rules and the Senate’s code of conduct.

“The purpose of the senators’ letter is plain: it is a request that the IRS immediately, and unilaterally, change the law to shut down certain Section 501(c)(4) organizations in the midst of an election year,” the CCP alleged in its complaint.

The CCP said the senators’ actons interfered with executive branch agency proceedings, were a misuse of of ficial resources for campaign purposes, constituted an appearance of impropriety, and demonstrated improper conduct which reflected discreditably upon the Senate.

“All of these actions appear to have been undertaken for electoral, rather than official purposes,” the CCP alleged in its 26-page complaint. “We request that the (Senate Ethics) Committee, in accordance with its mandate, investigate each violation accordingly and impose appropriate sanctions.”

The CCP’s complaint noted one of the articles of impeachment against President Richard Nixon was that Nixon “endeavored to obtain from the Internal Revenue Service, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, confidential information contained in income tax returns for purposes not authorized by law, and to cause, in violation of the constitutional rights of citizens, income tax audits or other income tax investigations to be initiated or conducted in a discriminatory manner.”

After the Watergate scandal, Congress passed a bill to help ensure future presidents would not make such requests.

“That law states it ‘shall be unlawful for any applicable person to request, directly or indirectly, any officer or employee of the Internal Revenue Service to conduct or terminate an audit or other investigation of any particular taxpayer,’” the CCP stated in its complaint.

The CCP said the actions of Udall and the other Democrat senators not only violated specific Senate rules and standards, but also violated established norms of Senate behavior.

“We respectfully request that this committee, as mandated by Committee Rule of Procedure 3(b), conduct an investigation, determine and assess the full extent of these senators’ interference with IRS proceedings, and impose appropriate sanctions,” the CCP stated in its conclusion.

John Sassaman, spokesman and chief counsel for the Senate Select Committee on Ethics, on

Wednesday declined to comment on the CCP complaint. The committee routinely conducts its business in executive session without publication.

The committee is evenly divided between Democrats and Republicans, regardless of which party controls the Senate, although the chairperson is always a member of the majority party.

Sen. Barbara Boxer, DCalif., is the committee’s current chair. Other members are Sens. Mark Pryor, D-Ark., Sherrod Brown, DOhio, Pat Roberts, R-Kan., Jim Risch, R-Idaho, and Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., who is the committee’s vice chair.

Talhelm said Udall believes the IRS should impose new guidelines for both conservative and liberal groups so that no group seeking to influence elections should receive tax-exempt status. She also said the senator believes all social welfare organizations defined by the IRS should be required to disclose their donors.

“When Tom signed the letters to the IRS, he made it clear that it was because he believes the IRS should enforce the existing law so political operatives can’t hide behind the tax code while they conduct political campaign activity, no matter what party they’re from,” Talhelm said. “Tom has worked his entire career to fight corruption and the unfair influence of special interests, even taking on members of his own party. He believes voters have a right to know who’s behind these secret special interest campaigns. That’s why he’s cosponsored legislation to require all political donors to disclose their identity and to allow voters to limit the influence of special interest money in elections.”

Talhelm also said Udall believes the IRS should comply with congressional inquiries.

“Tom agrees that the IRS must comply with the Free-

The crunch on the border in Texas’ Rio Grande Valley prompted U.S. authorities to fly immi-

dom of Information Act, do the right thing and produce its emails,” Talhelm said.

Allen Weh, the Republican nominee for U.S. Senate who will face Udall in November’s general election, on Tuesday called for Udall to release his correspondence with the IRS and return $46,500 of contributions Udall has received from the National Treasury Employees Union.

Weh said the pressure the IRS received from Senate Democrats and the IRS allegedly subsequently targeting conservative groups is no coincidence.

In 2013, allegations surfaced the IRS was targeting politically conservative groups, holding up their applications for tax-exempt status for months and even years.

“If the ethics complaint is found to be valid, it is right now a complaint, it has not been adjudicated to my knowledge, if it’s found to be a violation, Tom Udall should probably resign,” Weh said Thursday. “Until then, we reserve judgment.

“Without knowing all the facts, I am 1,500 miles away from Washington, it would appear suspicious and it certainly appears at a distance to be something that shouldn’t have been done. It is certainly coincidental with what we do know about the IRS obviously targeting American citizens in various groups, which in my view has clearly broken laws. There has been criminal action inside the IRS.” Weh said U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder should be impeached if Holder does not appoint a special prosecutor to look into alleged illegal political activity within the IRS. “All Americans are waiting on Attor ney General Holder to appoint a special prosecutor to fully investigate and hold those accountable,” Weh said. “In the conduct of that investigation, there should be additional light shed on the alleged participation of several Democrat senators,

grant families to other Texas cities and to Southern California for processing.

The Border Patrol is coping with excess capacity across the Southwest, and cities’ responses to the arriving immigrants have ranged from welcoming to indifferent. In the border town of El Centro, California, a flight arrived Wednesday without protest.

The same day, 140 miles north in Murrieta, an overflow crowd filled a school auditorium for a town hall convened on immigrant arrivals. Those in the crowd chanted “Send them back!” at a Border Patrol official.

Some local leaders said the outrage among some area residents is justified, given the already stressed social services infrastructure and the stagnant Inland Empire economy.

Murrieta has a population of about 106,000.

“It’s not the 140 we’re concerned about,” Riverside County Supervisor Jef f Stone said of the number of people on the three buses turned away

by Murrieta protesters.

“It’s the thousands more that will follow that will strain our resources and take away the resources we need to care for our own citizens.”

More protests are expected in the city Friday as rumors circulate of another convoy of immigrants arriving at the border patrol station there.

The Murrieta Police Department plans to have additional staff in place, Lt. John Flavin said.

one of whom is Tom Udall.

If he doesn’t appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the IRS, he should be impeached. I don’t expect Eric Holder to resign. None of these guys that are getting away with stuff resign, they just go on with impunity thinking they are beyond accountability.”

Weh disagreed with President Barack Obama and others who have said the IRS scandal is a “phony scandal.” Obama said in a Feb. 2 interview with Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly there was “not even a smidgen of corruption” within the IRS.

“I do not believe it’s a phony scandal, I think it’s a very real scandal, one of the most onerous of all because it involves the agency that most Americans fear the most and most Americans recognize can wreck their lives,” Weh said. “And that should be a bipartisan concern by the way. I said that the very day I announced on the radio. Of all the agencies, the very last agency you want to politicize in the federal gover nment is the IRS.”

Arthur threatens July 4th plans along East Coast

NATION

Roswell Daily Record

KILL DEVIL HILLS, N.C. (AP) — A strengthening Hurricane Arthur forced thousands of vacationers on the North Carolina coast to abandon their Independence Day plans while cities farther up the East Coast rescheduled fireworks displays threatened by rain from the storm.

Arthur strengthened to a Category 2 hurricane Thursday night, with winds of 100 mph as the storm neared North Carolina. Little change was expected in the storm’s strength Thursday night and Friday, and Arthur was expected to weaken as it travels northward and slings rain along the East Coast.

The annual Boston Pops Fourth of July concert and fireworks show was rescheduled for Thursday because of potential heavy rain from Arthur, while fireworks displays in New Jersey, Maine and New Hampshire were postponed until later in the weekend.

Either later Thursday or early Friday, Arthur was expected to pass over or near North Carolina and its Outer Banks — a 200mile string of narrow barrier islands with about 57,000 permanent residents.

“We don’t know for sure if the exact center of Arthur is going to pass over land or not. The chances have been increasing for that to occur

with the last couple of forecasts. But even if the exact center doesn’t go over you, you will experience impacts tonight. The weather is going downhill in North Carolina, even as we speak,” said Rick Knabb, the director of the U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami.

The islands are susceptible to high winds, rough seas and road-clogging sands, prompting an exodus that began Wednesday night.

Among the tourists leaving Hatteras Island were 27-year-old Nichole Specht and 28-year-old Ryan Witman of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The couple started driving at 3:30 a.m. Thursday on North Carolina Highway 12, the only road on and off Hatteras.

“We were just saying we were really, really lucky this year that the weather was so great, and then this,” Specht said as she ended a two-week vacation.

Many island residents, meanwhile, decided to ride out the power ful storm rather than risk losing access to homes connected to the mainland by a highway prone to washouts.

“All the people that I know who live here are staying put,” said Mike Rabe, who planned to stay in his Rodanthe home despite an evacuation order for surrounding Hatteras Island.

The departures of vaca-

tioners left things “pretty dead” on Hatteras Island during the normally bustling run-up to the Independence Day weekend, Rabe said. He spent Thursday running errands and helping neighbors prepare their homes for the storm.

Before the storm hit, tourism officials had expected 250,000 people to travel to the Outer Banks for the holiday weekend.

Gov. Pat McCrory sought to strike a balance between a stern warning to vacationers and optimism that part of the busy weekend could be salvaged.

“Of course, this holiday weekend, the July 4th weekend, is one of the biggest weekends for coastal tourism in the state, and we anticipate a beautiful weekend after the Tropical Storm Arthur or the Hurricane Arthur is out of North Carolina,” he said.

Arthur, the first named storm of the Atlantic season, prompted a hurricane warning for much of the North Carolina coast. On the Outer Banks’ Ocracoke Island, accessible only by ferry, a voluntary evacuation was underway. Officials said ferry service would end at 5 p.m.

Among those leaving the island was the Unmussig family of Midlothian, Virginia. They cut their vacation two days short when they left Thursday morning in an SUV towing a

trailer filled with bicycles and kayaks.

“Our cottage was right on the sound and we didn’t want that back-current surge coming in and flooding us out,” said Donald Unmussig, 50.

“I just didn’t want to risk getting caught there. I have to work Monday morning. I didn’t want to be late,” he added. “We just decided to cut the losses and go home and not have to deal with the problems.”

Tropical storm warnings were also in ef fect for coastal areas in South Carolina and Virginia and as far north as Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

On the Massachusetts

island of Nantucket, no evacuations were planned, but residents who have lived through many a fierce stor m said they know better than to totally relax.

“I think that for the most part it’s another storm, but you never know what can happen,” said Rocky Fox, who owns the Chicken Box nightclub on Nantucket. “Being the Fourth of July weekend, things seems to be magnified.”

Fox said Nantucket residents are used to being prepared. “Mother Nature was upset with us this winter, and she may not be through. We’re on an island. You can never tell

what it’s going to do. You prepare for the worst and hope for the best.”

On Thursday night, Arthur was located about 55 miles (90 kilometers) northeast of Cape Fear, North Carolina, and about 110 miles (165 kilometers) southwest of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina. It was moving northeast at 15 mph (24 kph).

If Arthur makes landfall in the U.S. on Friday, it would be the first hurricane to do so on July Fourth, according to National Hurricane Center research that goes back to the 1850s.

King, Tartt among those Headbanging caused brain backing anti-Amazon letter bleed in Motorhead fan

NEW YORK (AP) — Stephen King, Nora Roberts and Donna Tartt are among the hundreds of authors who have added their names to an online letter criticizing Amazon.com for restricting access to works published by Hachette Book Group.

The letter, initiated by Hachette author Douglas Preston, urged Amazon to resolve its standoff with Hachette over e-book prices and other issues. Readers were asked to email Amazon CEO Jef f Bezos at jeff(at)amazon.com and “tell him what you think.” Amazon has slowed delivery on books by Preston and other Hachette authors, limited discounts and removed pre-order tags for upcoming releases.

In a telephone interview Thursday, Preston said he was receiving so many emails of support that he felt like “a data entry clerk.” Known for such thrillers as “Blasphemy” and “The Codex,” Preston said he admired Amazon and appreciated how many of his books have sold through the online retailer.

But he objected to Amazon’s “scorched earth tactics.”

“A lot of pain is being inflicted on innocent third parties,” he said, referring

to authors whose books have been affected.

Preston’s next book, “The Lost Island,” is a collaboration with Lincoln Child that comes out in August. Only the audio edition can be pre-ordered.

“Our focus for years has been to build a bookstore that benefits authors and readers alike,” read a statement issued Thursday by Amazon. “We take seriously and regret the impact it has when, however infrequently, a terms dispute with a publisher af fects authors. We look forward to resolving this issue with Hachette as soon as possible.”

Other authors endorsing the letter, which appears o n http://www.prestonchild.c om/storage/med/preston/ 220—AmazonStatement.pdf ., include James Patterson, Andrew Solomon and Scott Turow. Some on the list are Hachette writers, but many are published by rival companies.

The authors include bestselling novelists such as King and Roberts, prizewinning historians such as Robert Caro and Taylor Branch, children’s authors Laurie Halse Anderson and Mary Pope Osbor ne, Pulitzer Prize winner Tartt and memoir writers Eliza-

beth Gilbert and Mary Karr.

“We’re in this for the long haul, as Amazon may well be, too,” Preston said.

Meanwhile, best-selling science fiction author Hugh Howey has written a petition addressed to readers that praises Amazon for offering low prices and for paying generous e-book royalties — as high as 70 percent, compared to the standard 25 percent from traditional publishers — to authors published by Amazon. Howey, who has had great success selling ebooks through Amazon, has been a leading defender of the Seattle-based company and an advocate for self-publishing.

“You probably aren’t aware of this, but the majority of your favorite authors can’t make a living off their book sales alone,” reads the petition, which can be found on https://www.change.org/p etitions/authors-to-thankour-readers-2 and is supported by J.A. Konrath and other popular Amazon writers.

“Very few authors could when New York Publishing was in charge. That is changing now that Amazon and other online retailers are paying authors a fair wage.”

LONDON (AP) — It may not destroy your soul, but it turns out heavy metal music can be hazardous to your brain. At least in some rare cases.

German doctors say they have treated a Motorhead fan whose headbanging habit ultimately led to a brain injury, but that the risk to metal fans in general is so small they don’t need to give up the shaking.

Last January, doctors at Hannover Medical School saw a 50-year-old man who complained of constant, worsening headaches. The patient, who was not identified, had no history of head injuries or substance abuse problems but said he had been headbanging regularly for years — most recently at a Motorhead concert he attended with his son.

After a scan, doctors discovered their patient had a brain bleed and needed a hole drilled into his brain to drain the blood. The patient’s headaches soon disappeared. In a follow-up scan, the doctors saw he had a benign cyst which might have made the metal aficionado more vulnerable to a brain injury.

“We are not against headbanging,” said Dr. Ariyan Pirayesh Islamian, one of the doctors who treated the man. “The risk of injury is very, very low. But I think if (our patient) had (gone) to a classical concert,

this would not have happened.”

Islamian said the violent shaking of the head in headbanging can sometimes be enough to cause damage as the brain bumps up against the skull and noted a handful of previous injuries, also in heavy metal fans. The latest case was described in a report published online Friday in the journal Lancet.

Motorhead is a British metal band known for helping create the “speed metal” genre, which inspires extremely fast headbanging. Islamian described the band as “one of the most hard-core rock ‘n’ roll acts on earth.”

Doctors said headbangers shouldn’t be discouraged from enjoying their favorite bands.

“There are probably other higher risk events going on at rock concerts than headbanging,” noted Dr. Colin Shieff, a neurosurgeon and trustee of the British brain injury advocacy group Headway.

“Most people who go to music festivals and jump up and down while shaking their heads don’t end up in the hands of a neurosurgeon.”

Islamian agreed heavy metal fans shouldn’t necessarily skip the headbanging.

“Rock ‘n’ roll will never die,” he said.

“Heavy metal fans should rock on.”

Defending champ Blixt leads Greenbrier Classic Friday, July 4, 2014 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

Roswell Daily Record

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. (AP) — Jonas Blixt’s memory of raising the trophy last year carried over to a strong start at the Greenbrier Classic.

The defending champion shot a 6-under 64 on Thursday to take a one-stroke lead over former Stanford star Patrick Rodgers and seven others at Old White TPC. Blixt tied for second in the Masters but missed the cut in three of his last four starts. Returning to The Greenbrier resort brought him back to a comfort zone.

Starting on the 10th hole in the morning with little wind, Blixt had six birdies on his front nine and made the turn at 5 under.

Six of the Swede’s eight birdies came on putts of 10 feet or less. He also chipped in from the rough for birdie on No. 16.

“The golf course is in perfect shape, like last year,” Blixt said. “You come back with a bunch of confidence knowing that you won here before.

“If I can get my putter to work the way it did today, I felt like I hit the ball on line

every time, and it could be a really good week.”

Rodgers is looking to make his third straight cut since turning pro. He holed a 118-yard wedge for eagle on the par-4 first hole — his 10th hole of the day.

After the round, he was back on the driving range.

“Being a new pro out here, you’re always trying to figure out and establish your routines,” Rodgers said, “and mine is just kind of cool down after the round and working on the things I felt like I can improve, and hopefully be ready for tomorrow.”

Also at 65 under were Chris Kirk, D.A. Points, James Hahn, Jason Bohn, Joe Durant, Jim Renner and Danny Lee. Steve Stricker, who has wife Nicki carrying his bag this week, was among eight player at 66. Jimmy Johnson, his regular caddie, was already scheduled to carry Chris Kirk’s bag when Stricker became a

WORLD CUP

AP Photo

RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Since Day 1, when Brazil put three past Croatia, the World Cup has enjoyed a goal deluge as sustained as an Amazon forest downpour.

A combination of factors jelled to put Brazil on a trajectory to smash the record for most goals at any of the 20 World Cups.

The target to beat is 171, from France in 1998. That could be surpassed in the semifinals or July 13 final in Brazil. Already, the 154 goals here — with eight games still to play — are more than in South Africa in 2010 or Germany in 2006.

Naturally, having 32 teams — the format since 1998 — produces more goals than earlier World Cups with 24, 16 or as few as 13 teams.

But the ratio of 2.75 goals per game in Brazil is impressive, too.

Organizer FIFA says that is the best average through this stage of the competition since 1986.

Here are reasons why goal-scorers have felt so at home: FITNESS: Thank not just players but their fitness trainers, too. Teams prepared superbly for the heat, humidity and arduous travel between far-flung venues. Players are coping remarkably from the exertions and accumulated fatigue of a match every five or six days.

Better fitness and endurance is allowing teams to attack at higher speeds for sustained periods and to threaten for longer. Players wilted and cramped at some hotter venues

Bouchard gives Canada a Slam finalist at Wimbledon

LONDON (AP) — Eugenie Bouchard could have lost her focus after the fourth game of her Wimbledon semifinal Thursday, when play was delayed for five minutes during Simona Halep’s medical timeout for a left ankle injury.

Bouchard also could have gotten sidetracked when action was halted again, smack-dab in the middle of a tiebreaker, because an ill spectator was being attended to in the Centre Court stands.

And everything really could have unraveled for Bouchard later, as she let match point after match point slip away. Able to steel herself time and again, the singularof-purpose Bouchard became Canada’s first Grand Slam finalist by beating French Open runner-up Halep 7-6 (5), 6-2 at the All England Club.

“I’m able to not worry about the distractions,” the 20-year -old Bouchard said.

“What I do well is I really don’t let it get to

me or affect me.”

In only her sixth major tournament, the 13th-seeded Bouchard will play for the championship Saturday against 2011 Wimbledon winner Petra Kvitova. The sixth-seeded Kvitova defeated No. 23 Lucie Safarova 7-6 (6), 6-1 in the first all-Czech women’s Slam semifinal.

“I know how (it feels) when you hold the trophy,” Kvitova said, “so I really want to win my second title here, and I will do everything (so) I can.”

Waiting in a hallway before walking on court, Kvitova and Safarova chatted, a pair of longtime friends who train at the same club back home. From 6-all in the tiebreaker, Kvitova won 31 of 48 points the rest of the way, using her overpowering serve and forehand that work so well on See WIMBLEDON, Page B3

3rd-generation pitcher shuts out Invaders, 6-0

Mike Ormseth pitched eight shutout innings as the White Sands Pupfish beat the Roswell Invaders 6-0 at Joe Bauman Stadium.

Ormseth (4-4) is a third-generation pitcher to throw on the mound at the stadium. His father, Mickey, did it for Roswell High in 1981-82, and his grandfather, Dennis, did it for the Roswell American Legion, which was an independent league for ages 15-17, in 56-57.

Yankees end five-game skid, beat Rays, 7-4

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Carlos Beltran gave the foundering Yankees a jolt with a three-run homer Thursday night, lifting Masahiro Tanaka to his major league-leading 12th win and helping New York end a seasonworst five-game skid with a 7-4 victory over the Minnesota Twins.

Zelous Wheeler homered in his big league debut after eight years in the minors. David Robertson notched his 19th save with a hitless ninth inning and the Yankees started an 11-game road trip with a sigh-of-relief performance that put their record back at the .500 mark.

Phil Hughes (8-5) was rolling right along against his former team, leading 2-0 until Beltran’s big hit cleared the tall wall above right field following consecutive singles to start the fifth. Wheeler went deep two batters later.

Tanaka (12-3) allowed a season-high four runs.

Sterling’s lawyers looking to make case federal

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Shortly before the start of a trial to determine whether Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling’s estranged wife can sell the team, his lawyers filed a motion Thursday to move the case to federal court, alleging his medical privacy has been violated.

A probate court trial is scheduled to begin Monday to determine whether Sterling is mentally incapacitated and Shelly Sterling can assume control of the family trust that owns the Clippers. She struck a deal in May to sell the team to former Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer for $2 billion after Donald Sterling’s racist remarks to a girlfriend were publicized and the NBA moved to oust him as an owner.

On Thursday, Donald Sterling’s attorneys filed a notice of removal to federal court, saying the airing of his medical information in the probate case violates federal privacy laws. In previous filings, they argued that Donald Sterling submitted to examinations of his mental competence under false pretenses, that there was undue influence in the doctors’ findings, and that the examination and letters about his capacity were defective and incomplete.

Shelly Sterling’s attorney, Pierced O’Donnell, called the move a “cowardly ploy” and said allegations of federal privacy violations are “preposterous” because Sterling expressly authorized public release of his medical records under the terms of his family trust.

“Donald Sterling’s 11th-hour attempt to move the probate trial into the federal courts is a desperate act by a desperate man,” O’Donnell said in a statement.

Ballmer’s attorney, Adam Streisand, also called the move “desperate” and said his side would seek to block it.

“We will be filing emergency relief in federal court to undo this last desperate and frivolous attempt to block our trial from going forward Monday,” Streisand said in a statement.

Donald Sterling’s attorney Bobby Samini denied the move was mere gamesmanship, saying “we feel strongly that this important issue should be addressed by

Diamondbacks 10, Pirates 2 PITTSBURGH (AP) — David Peralta had three hits, including a two-run homer, and drove in four runs to help Arizona avoid a series sweep.

Arizona scored three runs in the sixth and seven in the ninth.

The Pirates are 0 for 8 in chances to sweep opposing teams this season. They looked primed to get their first sweep as starter Vance Worley retired the first 12 batters he faced and carried a nohitter into the sixth inning.

Ender Inciarte broke up Worley’s no-hit bid with an RBI single with one out in the sixth. Peralta followed with his third home run

of the year which barely cleared the 21-foot-high fence in right field and gave Arizona a 3-2 lead.

Tony Gwynn Jr. led of f the ninth with a walk and eventually scored the tying run against Miami closer Steve Cishek (4-4).

Revere scored easily when Chase Utley hit a grounder and Solano could only get the out at first.

Phillies closer Jonathan Papelbon got his 19th save in 21 chances. Jake Diekman (3-2) got the win despite a shaky eighth, giving up two runs and costing Philadelphia the lead.

Marcell Ozuna had three hits and scored twice for Miami, and Christian Yelich also had a twohit night for the Marlins. Casey McGehee extended his hit streak to 10 for Miami, reaching base for the 27th straight game.

“While it has become popular to attack Donald Sterling for his regrettable comments, his right to privacy and to the protection of his medical records should not be acceptable collateral damage,” Samini said in a statement.

It was not immediately clear when a federal judge might rule on the issue, but the trial in state probate court remained scheduled to start Monday morning.

Collison, Kings agree to 3year, $16-mil. deal

The Sacramento Kings got some muchneeded depth at point guard and a possible backup plan if they lose starter Isaiah Thomas in free agency.

The Kings and Darren Collison agreed to a three-year contract worth about $16 million Thursday, a person familiar with the deal said. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because teams can’t officially sign free agents until the NBA’s moratorium on moves is lifted July 10.

The Los Angeles Times first reported the agreement.

Collison opted out of the final year of his contract with the Clippers that would have paid him $1.9 million next season. He averaged 11.4 points and 3.7 assists in 25.9 minutes last season, primarily as Chris Paul’s backup.

Collison has been a starter at times throughout his career since New Orleans drafted him 21st overall in 2009 out of UCLA, including 35 games last season while Paul was injured. He also played two seasons with Indiana and one in Dallas before helping the Clippers reach the second round of the playoffs.

Clippers coach and president of basketball operations Doc Rivers had called Collison the team’s No. 1 priority in free agency. Instead, Collison left for a big pay raise in California’s capital city and possibly even a chance to start.

With so much money already committed to DeMarcus Cousins and Rudy Gay next season, the Kings’ chances of keeping Thomas already were going to be tough this summer. Thomas, the last pick of the 2011 draft who has become a fan favorite in Sacramento, has worked his way into being a full-time starter who averaged 20.3 points and 6.3 assists last season.

The market for ball-handling guards also has been a booming one this summer.

Shaun Livingston left the Brooklyn Nets for a three-year, $16 million deal with Golden State. Kyle Lowry has a contract in place to return to Toronto reportedly worth $48 million over four years, and Kyrie Irving agreed to a five-year, $90 million contract extension with Cleveland.

Because Thomas is a restricted free agent, the Kings can match any offer he receives. Whether they will — or can afford to do so — remains unclear.

The Kings also are counting on some of their young guards to blossom.

Last year’s second-round pick, point guard Ray McCallum, showed signs of improving when he played bigger minutes in the final weeks of the season. And Sacramento has drafted a shooting guard with its last two first-round picks, Ben McLemore (seventh overall) out of Kansas last year and Michigan’s Nik Stauskas (eighth overall) this June.

Owner Vivek Ranadive, general manager Pete D’Alessandro and coach Michael Malone have made as many moves as any team in the league since taking over the Kings last year, so it’s also possible Sacramento could shuffle its roster with more trades again this summer.

late entry at The Greenbrier.

Stricker is playing only his eighth tour event this year. He’ll compete again next week at John Deere and is leaning against going to the British Open unless he has one or more high finishes before then.

“We’ll just keep plugging along and see what happens,” Stricker said.

Ryder Cup captain Tom Watson played alongside Keegan Bradley and Webb Simpson, getting a close-up view as he contemplates his three captain’s picks for the Sept. 26-28 event at Gleneagles in Scotland.

“The Ryder Cup’s a long way in the distance,” Watson said. “I’m watching other people as well. It’s fun to be out here to get to know the young players a little bit better.”

Watson took a similar approach in April, playing with Jordan Spieth at the RBC Heritage and Patrick Reed at Augusta National.

and in games taken into extra time, but perhaps not as dramatically as they might have done 10 or 20 years ago.

“We thought that with the weather conditions here in Brazil ... teams were going to be very economical with the expenditure of efforts,” said former Nigeria international Sunday Oliseh, now on a FIFA panel dissecting the play, tactical innovations and other on-field trends of this World Cup. “It's been end-to-end stuff.”

HOME ADVANTAGE: Teams from the Americas looked as comfy as Brazilian sunbathers on Copacabana beach, and swept up half of the last 16 places.

“The South American teams have got a sort of aggressive bite here which I don't see when they travel away from their base,” said former Liverpool manager Gerard Houllier, also part of the FIFA study group.

FORWARDS ON FORM: Attackers who forgot to pack their scoring boots for South Africa brought them to Brazil.

Arjen Robben and Robin van Persie scored three in total for the Netherlands in 2010. In Brazil, they've netted that many each before their quarterfinal chance to score more against Costa Rica.

Five goals made Germany's Thomas Mueller top scorer in 2010, but won't be enough in Brazil. James Rodriguez already has five for Colombia. Scoreless in South Africa, Lionel Messi has four for Argentina. So do Mueller and Brazil's Neymar.

“We think that one of the main reasons we have so many goals is because we have a generation of outstanding strikers,” Houllier said.

TACTICS: Coaches have been rewarded for fielding attacking formations.

Against Iran, Argentina started an awesome forward trio of Messi, Gonzalo Higuain and Sergio Aguero — almost too

Watson has said he would use a wildcard pick on Tiger Woods if he’s healthy and playing well, leaving all sorts of possibilities with the other two picks.

Simpson, who shot 71 on Thursday, is 17th in the U.S. Ryder Cup standings and Bradley, who shot 67, is 18th. Others ahead of them in the Greenbrier Classic field are Kirk at No. 11, Brendon Todd at No. 13 and Kevin Na at No. 15.

The top nine get automatic berths on the U.S. squad. Reed, also in the Greenbrier field, is at No. 9, while Phil Mickelson, not playing this week, is 10th.

“You’d think that one round or two rounds wouldn’t determine us being on the team. That would be kind of silly,” Bradley said. “It doesn’t hurt to play well. Put it that way.”

Bubba Watson, the top-ranked player in the field at No. 3 in the world, had a 68.

Only two rounds of 65 or better came during the afternoon when the wind picked up and the greens became more firm.

“I wish I could guess the wind differently, but otherwise it was a good day,” Watson said. much firepower.

Some teams slimmed down to three players in defense, allowing full backs to roam forward, swamp the midfield and enable midfielders to then push into the danger zones too. Teams are turning defense into attack with lightning speed, as Chile did in humbling dethroned champion Spain 2-0.

“Some of the games have been like hockey or basketball, just going from one goal to another,” Houllier said. “It's like a stream of players going forward.”

Players possibly also felt an extra need for flair because Brazil is the land of football as art.

“Everybody has come out blazing,” Oliseh said.

THE BALL: Players roundly criticized the 2010 ball for taking crazy dips and dives and even FIFA's study group noted it “picked up incredible speed.” But the 2014 ball has worked fine, as Rodriguez proved with the best goal so far, chesting it down and volleying in. Teams got the ball months in advance to practice with it.

KNOWLEDGE SPREAD: With the globalization of football, the gap in skills and know-how between the best and worst teams continues to shrink. Supposed minnows proved to be piranhas in Brazil, unawed by their supposedly more illustrious prey.

Playing abroad brings experience that footballers repatriate to their national teams, strengthening them. Sage foreign coaches have helped, too. Costa Rica's 23 players work in 11 different countries and have a coach from Colombia.

They beat former champions Uruguay and Italy, along with 2004 European champion Greece, on their way to their quarterfinals on Saturday.

“It's not easy to beat even the smaller nations. Everyone's improving and world football is evolving,” France defender Mamadou Sakho said. “Everyone is improving technically, tactically and physically.”

Pearce’s four hits lead to Orioles 5-2 win over Rangers

BALTIMORE (AP) — Baltimore manager Buck Showalter is running out of adjectives to describe how much Steve Pearce has meant to the Orioles this season.

Pearce had a career-high four hits and drove in two runs, and Wei-Yin Chen shut down Texas again as the Orioles completed a four-game sweep of the Rangers with a 52 victory on Thursday night.

The Rangers have lost nine consecutive road games — their longest skid since 2005 when Showalter was Texas’ manager. Baltimore (46-39) completed its first four-game sweep against the Rangers since 2004 and improved to a season-high seven games over .500.

The Orioles managed the feat while playing without All-Star third baseman Manny Machado, who is serving a five game suspension for throwing his bat on June 8 against Oakland.

“We’re relying on some people, and people are stepping up,” Pearce said. “We’re pitching, we’re hitting. We’re having timely hitting. We’re finding ways to get it done.”

Chen (8-3) allowed two runs and six hits with four strikeouts and two walks in six innings. He is 4-0 in four starts against Texas with a 1.67 ERA. Left-hander Zach Britton earned his 12th save and hasn’t allowed a run in 21 consecutive relief appearances.

Pearce, who was released at the end of April and then re-signed, had eight RBIs in the four-game series. Since the beginning of June, he is 31 for 81 (.383) with nine doubles and 17 RBIs. Nick Hundley had two of Baltimore’s six doubles and scored twice.

Texas right-hander Yu Darvish, who was scheduled to pitch Thursday, was pushed back one day after rain delayed the start of the game. With the threat of more rain after a nearly one-hour delay, Rangers manager Ron Washington decided to use long reliever Scott Baker against Baltimore and save Darvish until Friday night when Texas will

take on the Mets in New York.

The game, however, didn’t have another delay. The Orioles are scheduled to play an afternoon game in Boston on Friday.

“It’s so hard to win a four-game series, or three out of four, in the major leagues,” Showalter said. “The guys kept a real intensity level through the rain delay, not knowing whether we were going to play or not.

So many dynamics of what’s going on with the 1:30 game (Friday), and weather issues there, getting in and out tonight.”

Baker (0-2) allowed three runs and seven hits with two strikeouts and one intentional walk in 4 2/3 innings. Shin-Soo Choo hit his eighth homer of the season for Texas (37-48), which has lost 13 of 15.

“Bake was on alert (Wednesday) when we knew of the weather,” Washington said. “It wasn’t all of a sudden that Bake would be the guy. He knew coming into today that it was going to be a possibility so he prepared. He went out there and did a good job for us.”

It was the first time in the Orioles’ last 34 wins that they didn’t hit a homer.

Baltimore took a 1-0 lead in the third inning when Pearce hit a one-out RBI single to left.

Texas responded the next inning when Carlos Pena’s grounder to second scored Adrian Beltre, who led off with a single.

Choo made it 2-1 with a solo shot off Chen in the fifth.

“I knew it was going to be delayed from the start so I just went through my routine and waited for the notice that the game was going to start,” Chen said through a translator. “So, it wasn’t all that difficult. Six innings is the baseline for a starter, so I feel content but I do hope that next time I can go further, deeper in the game.”

Baltimore regained the lead at 3-2 in the bottom half of the inning. After Ryan Flaherty led off with a double, Hundley followed with another double, and scored on Pearce’s double to center.

grass to improve to 6-0 against Safarova.

In a year that zero American men or women reached Wimbledon’s round of 16 for the first time in 103 years, another Canadian, Milos Raonic, will try join Bouchard as a finalist. The men’s semifinals Friday are old guard vs. new guard matchups: seven-time champion Roger Federer against Raonic, and topseeded Novak Djokovic against Grigor Dimitrov.

As of now, the 24-yearold Kvitova is the only man or woman born in the 1990s to win a Grand Slam title. If Bouchard becomes the second, she also would be the youngest major champion since Maria Sharapova was 19 at the 2006 U.S. Open.

“It’s what I’ve worked so long for,” Bouchard said, without a hint of irony.

Yes, Bouchard is clearly in a hurry — and, by the looks of her muted postvictory reaction, didn’t appear all that thrilled to get past the third-seeded

Friday, July 4, 2014 Halep, who twisted her ankle in the early going and got it taped by a trainer.

“I feel like my job is not done here,” Bouchard said, “so there’s no need for a huge celebration.”

Taking the ball early while standing at the baseline, ending points quickly with flat groundstrokes, she reached the semifinals at the Australian Open and French Open this year before losing to the eventual champions.

“I totally feel like I belong,” Bouchard said.

Halep led 3-2 in the tiebreaker when chair umpire Kader Nouni noticed something was wrong with a woman in a lower -tier seat — it was the warmest day of the tournament, topping 75 degrees (24 Celsius) — and waved both players to the sideline. After a four-minute break, Halep went ahead 4-2. But on the next point, Bouchard hit a net-cord winner — “a lucky ball,” Halep called it.

Bouchard took four of the next five points, too, closing the set with a swinging forehand volley.

“I lost, a little bit, my

concentration,” Halep acknowledged.

Her opponent did not.

“She’s pretty calm, always composed,” said Bouchard’s mother, Julie Leclair, who sat two seats away from Bouchard’s pal, “Big Bang Theory” actor Jim Parsons, in the player’s guest box.

“She’s been working for this since she was 4 1/2 years old,” Leclair said.

“She just goes out every day, trying to be the best she can be.”

Bouchard’s first match point came while ahead 5-1 in the second set, and Halep serving at 15-40. A fan yelled, Bouchard tried to call time and let her guard down, allowing Halep to hit an 81 mph (131 kph) ace. Bouchard tried to persuade Nouni to let them replay the point, but he didn’t. Two more match points came and went in that game.

Then, serving for the match, Bouchard wasted two more chances to end things, before finally converting her sixth match point with a 99 mph (160 kph) service winner.

“It’s not, like, a surprise to me,” Bouchard said. “I expect good results like this.”

New York Knicks meet with Anthony in L.A.

NEW YORK (AP) — The Knicks went coast to coast to let Carmelo Anthony know they want him to stay in New York.

Team officials traveled to Los Angeles on Thursday night to meet with the free agent, a person with knowledge of the plans said.

Team President Phil Jackson and general manager Steve Mills were

expected to be part of the meeting but not Madison Square Garden chairman James Dolan, the person told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because details of the meeting were to remain private.

The meeting was first reported by ESPN. Anthony was in Los Angeles to meet with the Lakers, who are among the

teams hoping to convince the All-Star forward to leave New York. Anthony already visited Chicago, Houston and Dallas this week.

The Knicks can offer him the largest contract, nearly $130 million over five years, though Jackson has said he hopes Anthony will take less than a maximum deal.

A person with knowledge of the deal told The Associated Press on Thursday that Nowitzki would get a three-year contract worth roughly $30 million. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal has not been announced.

New contracts can’t be signed until next Thursday.

The 36-year -old Nowitzki is taking a big pay cut with a contract similar in value and structure to the one T im Duncan signed with San Antonio two years ago.

Duncan, who also took a much lower salary, is exercising a player option to return for the final season of his deal after helping

the Spurs win their fifth title since 1999.

Nowitzki just completed a fouryear deal worth $80 million, and he left money on the table in that deal hoping the Mavericks could get some pieces around him.

The pursuit of other stars is even more urgent with Nowitzki getting close to the end of what figures to be a Hall-of-Fame career. The 2011 NBA Finals MVP

Roswell Daily Record

put off finalizing the deal until after the Mavericks met with free agent Carmelo Anthony, which happened Wednesday night.

Mavericks owner Mark Cuban recently acknowledged that he couldn’t of fer Anthony a max contract, so Dallas figures to be stressing the 2011 title led by coach Rick Carlisle, Nowitzki and center Tyson Chandler, who recently rejoined the team in a

trade with the New York Knicks.

If the Mavericks miss out on Anthony, there are a number of other small forwards on their wish list, topped by Houston’s Chandler Parsons. He is a restricted free agent, and the Rockets can match any offer.

Dallas also wants to re-sign point guard Devin Harris, and will target several others at that position if Harris goes elsewhere.

Greinke helps Dodgers Cavaliers meet with bring down Rockies, 8-2 James’ agent in Cleveland DENVER (AP) — Zack Greinke challenged baseball’s hottest hitter. The Los Angeles right-hander won the battle with Troy Tulowitzki and the Dodgers went on to win the game.

Greinke pitched eight solid innings, Juan Uribe hit the go-ahead single in the ninth inning and Los Angeles beat the Colorado Rockies 3-2 Thursday night.

Uribe finished with three of the Dodgers’ six hits. Los Angeles moved into first place in the NL West, a half-game ahead of San Francisco, which lost to St. Louis on Thursday.

“It feels good where we’re at, and it’s where we want to be,” manager Don Mattingly said.

Greinke (11-4) got the win despite giving up the lead in the eighth inning. His teammates rallied in the ninth off reliever LaTroy Hawkins to help Greinke tie for the major league lead in victories.

“Anytime you can give up two runs at this park is special,” first baseman Adrian Gonzalez said.

Kenley Jansen worked the bottom of the inning to get his NL best 26th save in 29 chances.

Justin Morneau and DJ LeMahieu had two hits apiece for the Rockies, who have lost four straight and 15 of 17 to move within a half-game of last place in the NL West.

It looked like Greinke might go the distance. He needed just 82 pitches through seven innings with Los Angeles was leading 2-1.

But the Rockies rallied in the eighth.

Charlie Blackmon led off with a single and one out later Morneau tripled to right-center to tie the game 2-2. Tulowitzki, who entered the game hitting a major league-best .351, came to the plate with a chance to put Colorado ahead.

Mattingly came out to talk strategy, and walking Tulowitzki wasn’t considered.

“We wanted to get after him,” Mattingly

$90 million contract extension.

Now, they’re working on bringing back James, who has never ruled out the possibility of a return.

Two years ago, James was asked if he could ever see himself playing for the Cavs again.

“I don’t know. I think it would be great,” he said.

“It would be fun to play in front of these fans again.

I had a lot fun times in my seven years here. You can’t predict the future and hopefully I continue to stay healthy. I’m here as a Miami Heat player, and I’m happy where I am now, but I don’t rule that out in no sense.

“And if I decide to come back, hopefully the fans will accept me.”

Cleveland fans, most of them anyway, have gotten over James’ infamous “Decision,” when he announced he was leaving on a nationally televised special. He was booed mercilessly in his first games back with the Heat, but in recent years he has been received more favorably. Maybe that’s because the Cavs haven’t been to the playof fs since he left and Clevelanders know he might be the only chance they have to see a championship in their lifetimes.

Cleveland hasn’t won a title in any of the major sports since 1964.

James’ decision to leave Cleveland — Thursday the four -year was anniversary of the team’s last pitch to him — prompted Gilbert to condemn him in a scathing letter to Cavs fans. The owner also told The AP he felt James had quit during games in the playoffs.

ESPN has reported that Paul also met with representatives for the Phoenix Suns, Houston Rockets and Dallas Mavericks. A photo of Mavericks owner Mark Cuban in Cleveland circulated on Twitter, though he said he was there for a commitment for his TV show, “Shark Tank.”

While James has been out of the country with his wife, Savannah, and their two sons, Paul has been working on the fourtime MVP’s future. Unlike four years ago, when teams flocked to Cleveland to make presentations to woo James, the courtship of him this time has been low key and rather business-like.

The Cavs have waited patiently for their chance to try and convince the Akron, Ohio, native to come home. In the past few weeks, the Cavs have hired new coach David Blatt, selected Kansas swingman Andrew Wiggins with the No. 1 overall pick and gotten All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving to agree to a five-year,

CLEVELAND (AP) — Four years after their messy breakup, the Cavaliers and LeBron James are at least talking about a reunion.

Cavs officials met with James’ agent, Rich Paul, this week about the freeagent superstar’s possible return. The sides visited as James continued his family vacation, a person with knowledge of the details told The Associated Press on Thursday night.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the talks.

It was not immediately clear if owner Dan Gilbert was at the meeting.

James recently opted out of the final two years of his contract in Miami.

The two-time NBA champion has gone to four straight finals with the Heat. However, after the team was throttled by San Antonio in this year’s finals, James said he would weigh his options this summer.

One of them could be re-signing with the Cavs, the team he spent seven seasons with before leaving in 2010 to join forces with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh in South Florida. Wade and Bosh also opted out of their deals with Heat, raising speculation the “Big Three” could be headed in different directions.

said. “Not to give in, pitch him tough.”

Greinke started with a 93 mph fastball for a strike, and after Tulowitzki looked at two balls he popped out to shallow left field.

“It wasn’t really the plan. I was trying to get a soft grounder,” Greinke said. “It worked, but it wasn’t how we drew it up.”

After an intentional walk to Corey Dickerson, Greinke struck out Nolan Arenado with a high fastball.

“It was a total ball. I got a little overly anxious,” Arenado said. “I knew he was coming around middle-in and I just over swung a little bit. Bad pitch to swing at.”

Greinke went eight innings for just the second time this season. He allowed two runs — one earned — on nine hits, struck out eight and walked just two. It was the 37th straight game a Dodgers starter has walked two or fewer.

“We were joking it was going to be tough to (keep going) in Colorado and then having to intentionally walk someone,” Greinke said. “That would have been awful to lose it on an intentional walk.”

The Dodgers got the winning run in the top of the ninth. Matt Kemp worked a leadoff walk off Hawkins (2-2), went to second on Scott Van Slyke’s groundout and scored when Uribe singled under the glove of second baseman LeMahieu.

“I didn’t see it off the bat too well. By the time I saw it, I felt it was kind of by me,” LeMahieu said. “It’s a play I feel like I still (should) make.”

Colorado lefty Franklin Morales was making his first start since allowing six runs in 5 1/3 innings at Cleveland on May 31. He made eight relief appearances in June, going 1-0 with a 4.50 ERA in 14 innings. He was pressed into his 12th start after right-hander Jhoulys Chacin went on the 15-day disabled list with right shoulder inflammation.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: Two years ago I was involved in an unhealthy relationship for me and my children. Despite what everyone said, I gave him the benefit of the doubt. He ended up assaulting me and my kids.

For two months I struggled with depression, and I admit I wasn’t the responsible parent I should have been. Child Protective Services took the children. I hold myself accountable for my actions and my failure.

My parents are angry with me because of poor choices I made in the past and treat me like the black sheep of the family. Granted, my

mother, brother and I all have issues stemming from the past, but I’m tired of playing the guilt card, tired of playing the victim and tired of not having my family back me up at a time when I need their support to regain custody of my kids.

I miss my family and what good times we did have. How do I even begin to put the pieces back together on a very broken family?

THE BLACK SHEEP DEAR BLACK SHEEP: Fixing your broken family is something all of you must be willing to work on together, or it won’t be successful. Because your mother and brother are unwilling, what you need to do is start fixing yourSELF. Regaining custody will depend upon your ability to establish your independence, support your children and yourself financially, and start counseling to deal with your issues so you won’t get into another destructive, abusive relationship. It will take work and time, but if you can do it — and I think you can — your mother and brother will respect

COMICS

you for it. And you will be stronger and healthier because you will no longer be so needy.

#####

DEAR ABBY: I have been dating “Gene” for three years, living together for a year and a half. We’re both divorced and love each other very much.

Our biggest problem is, he doesn’t keep a “normal” schedule. Gene eats at odd hours, exercises at the strangest times and will stay awake ‘til the wee hours of the morning, then crash for a day or so. He seems unfazed by this wackiness. He’s responsible, holds a good job and comes from a terrific family, but his habits are taking a toll on me.

There are days when I want him home for dinner, or I want to cuddle with him. I want a normal schedule.

This is tricky because I have accepted his lifestyle and now the brakes have come on for me. Gene doesn’t understand my sudden change of attitude, and frankly, neither do I. Do I have only two choices — accept him for who he is or find

someone who follows a more conventional schedule? I love him so much that leaving would be very hard to do.

Family Circus

WANTS A NORMAL LIFE

DEAR WANTS:

It would be interesting to know what Gene does for a living. Does he work in a casino? Show business?

It’s possible your change in attitude has come about because you now realize that you might be living his unconventional lifestyle for the rest of your life. Compromises you could make on a temporary basis can seem daunting when you see they’ll be permanent.

If you need someone who lives his life on a normal schedule, one of you will have to make some changes. You will either have to accept this as your future or Gene will have to change his lifestyle. Because he seems to thrive on the schedule he’s living on, the adjustment may be very difficult for him.

Paula in Tennessee

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

Here are some easy ways to clean both. For the wooden door, use a broom to sweep away any excess dirt and cobwebs. Hose it down, and then use a microfiber cloth to wipe dry. If you want, you can use a soft terry towel and car or furniture polish to give it a coat of wax to protect it from the elements.

For the glass and metal doors, clean the glass with full-strength vinegar and dry with newspaper for no streaks. Then wipe the metal portion of the door with a damp rag (water only).

Any metal hardware, doorknobs, hinges, etc., can be cleaned with a little soap and water. Whenever I clean my doors, I take the time to check the weatherstripping to see if it needs replacing. Clean doors make for an inviting entranceway!

Dear Heloise: We recently had the experience of missing luggage while traveling abroad. Adding to the confusion was our difficulty communicating with the airline representative due to language issues. He asked us to describe the missing luggage and showed us a poster of many different sizes, shapes and colors. Ultimately, we did reunite with our bags six hours later. However, on the way back, we snapped a photograph of our luggage just prior to checking it in. How easy it would have been to identify the luggage had we had this photo to show the airline baggage coordinator.

Linda G., via email Dear Heloise: My rubber car mats are really dirty. Do you have any hints on how to clean them?

Steve in Texas

For a good cleaning, make a solution of equal parts vinegar and water. Give the mats a good scrub with the solution and rinse well.

Then let them air-dry thoroughly before putting them back into your car. To keep them cleaner between scrubbings, take them out and vacuum regularly. Vinegar is a cheap and eco-friendly cleaner. To receive my pamphlet full of vinegar hints, send $5 and a long, selfaddressed, stamped (70 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Vinegar, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001. To clean car windows, use the same solution of vinegar and water and a microfiber cloth.

Dear Heloise: Each summer when I bring out my fans, I take off the grilles by removing the screws, and wipe the blades with a damp cloth. Then I take the grilles down to the selfservice carwash and secure them in the clamps provided for car mats. A quick high-pressure spray cleans all the dirt and grime in those crevices. One must be careful to dry the grates completely before putting them back on the fans.

Director, 2 more indicted in fatal Ga. train crash SAVANNAH, Ga. (AP) — The director of a movie about singer Gregg Allman and two other executives on the project were indicted Thursday on felony charges stemming from a fatal crash in which a freight train plowed into the film’s crew in southeast Georgia.

A grand jury in rural Wayne County retur ned charges of involuntary manslaughter and criminal trespassing against “Midnight Rider” director Randall Miller as well as his wife and business partner, Jody Savin, and the film’s executive producer, Jay Sedrish.

If they are convicted, the filmmakers each could face up to 11 years in prison for the Feb. 20 death of Sarah Jones. The 27-

year-old camera assistant from Atlanta was killed and six other crew members were struck by a train while shooting footage on a railroad bridge spanning the Altamaha River southwest of Savannah. Authorities say the train was traveling at 55 mph when it crashed into the crew and a bed that had been placed on the tracks as a movie prop.

Jones’ parents, who have filed a civil lawsuit against the three indicted filmmakers and others, stopped short of praising the decision to seek a criminal prosecution.

“Elizabeth and I are comfortable that the authorities were both careful and meticulous in investigating and bringing charges related to the incident

that took our daughter’s life,” Richard Jones, the young woman’s father, said in a statement. “We must allow the criminal justice process to proceed unhindered. Our mission remains the same: to ensure safety on all film sets.”

Wayne County sheriff’s investigators have said filmmakers had permission to be on property surrounding the tracks from the landowner, forest-products company Rayonier, but lacked permission from CSX Railroad to be filming on the actual train tracks.

The indictment charges Miller, Savin and Sedrish with unintentionally causing Jones’ death by trespassing onto the railroad bridge. The filmmakers went

Friday, July 4, 2014

onto the train trestle even after CSX denied them access, the indictment says.

Donnie Dixon, an attorney for Miller and Savin, said Thursday that he had no comment on the charges. It was not immediately known whether Sedrish had an attorney.

Three civil lawsuits, including the one by Jones’ parents, related to the train crash are pending. Miller bristled at the suggestion that he was cavalier about his crew’s safety when he took the witness stand during a court appearance in May. He said his assistants were in charge of securing location permits, and that crew members were along the track to look out for trains during filming.

“I did not know it was a live train trestle,” Miller said. “We were told there were two trains from Rayonier coming through, and no more trains that day.”

Involuntary manslaughter is a felony carrying a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison under Georgia law. Criminal trespass is a misdemeanor punishable by no more than a year in prison.

None of the accused filmmakers, who live in California, have been arrested. They will likely be allowed to travel to Georgia and tur n themselves in at a later date, said Joe Gardner, the lead sheriff’s investigator in the case.

Libyan rebels fly to Bosnia to see revolution film

SARAJEVO, BosniaHerzegovina (AP) — More than a hundred Libyan rebels, sporting new suits, chartered a plane on Thursday to travel to the Sarajevo premiere of a documentary about their revolution.

tence and there were 10 people around me who said they want to come,” Marcie said. The word spread fast and initially 4,000 Zintanis wanted to come but in the end about 120 did.

Marcie said he made the movie to “to show the soul of a revolution.”

Mussa Dwaib, a rebel prominent in the film, said the men figured that if Marcie had the nerve to follow them through battle, the least they could do was get to Sarajevo.

“We struggled for freedom, we gained that freedom and now we are free people,” he said.

Another rebel, Ibrahim al-Madani, saw his father dying for the first time in the cinema Thursday since Marcie was the only one in the emergency room when it happened.

“My cousins also were fighting together against the Gadhafi troops and now they are not here,” he said.
