City’s $110M budget fails by one vote THE VOICE OF THE PECOS VALLEY

Vol. 123, No. 182

75¢ Daily / $1.25 Sunday

BY JEFF TUCKER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The city of Roswell’s proposed $110 million budget came up a vote shy of passage Tuesday night as city leaders literally scrambled after the meeting to find a solution.

Not submitting a final budget to the state Department of Finance and Administration by Thursday’s deadline will at least result in an audit finding

against the city, said City Manager Larry Fry. Other political and administrative consequences of not having a spending plan in place, while the city is a month into its 2014-15 fiscal year, were uncertain.

Seven city councilors attended Tuesday night’s special City Council meeting when a resolution approving the city’s final budget for the 2014-15 fiscal year was on the agenda, along with a few other

resolution.

City Councilors Steve Henderson and Juan Oropesa voted against it.

City Councilors Savino Sanchez Jr., Art Sandoval and Elena Velasquez did not attend Tuesday night’s special meeting.

Mayor Dennis Kintigh may only vote when there is a tie.

Henderson alerted city councilors he might vote against the budget resolution prior to the roll call, while Oropesa did not tip

“housekeeping” items that were expected to pass, and unanimously.

When the final budget came up for a vote, the City Council voted 5-2 to approve the resolution, but Fry noted a majority of the entire 10-member City Council must vote in favor of a city budget for a budget to be adopted.

City Councilors Jeanine Corn Best, Tabitha Denny, Caleb Grant, Natasha Mackey and Jason Perry voted in favor of the budget

Police respond to stabbing report STAFF REPORT

Roswell Police responded to a report of a stabbing on College Avenue Monday evening.

According to police, a

couple driving down Lea Street saw a bleeding man walking along the road.

They picked him up and offered to take the wounded man to the hospital.

The man, 38, refused treatment and asked that

he be driven home instead.

The couple called the police and took the man back to his home on College Avenue. Police arrived at the scene and the wounded man told police he was attacked with a

machete and an axe. He said the attacker was a friend who got mad and attacked him.

The stabbing victim was taken to a local hospital for treatment, according to police.

his hand.

Henderson told his colleagues he was apprehensive about projected gross receipt tax collections. He said the budget is predicated on the expectation the city’s GRT collections will increase 2.5 percent in the city’s 2014-15 fiscal year, which began July 1.

The city of Roswell, Chaves County, and state of New Mexico collectively impose a 7.125 percent gross receipts tax on property and services sold in

the city, including leasing or licensing property. Businesses pay the total gross receipt taxes to the state, which then distributes portions to the state’s counties and municipalities.

widely depending where you live.

At East Country Club and Garden Street, 1.3 inches was reported. This number is very close to what the range gauge at the Roswell Daily Record picked up before midnight Monday, 1.18 inches.

One mile northwest of the city the rainfall was only .79 inches, Marshall said.

Though there was no hail or strong winds reported, lightning did cause some scattered power outages around the city.

An estimated 500 to 600 homes were without electricity Monday night, said Wes Reeves, an Xcel Energy spokesman based in Amarillo, Texas. He said several transfor mers in Roswell were zapped by lightning.

Reeves said local crews worked all night to get power back on and were relieved by Xcel workers from Clovis later in the day on Tuesday.

Reeves said there was a lot of mud that crews had

Henderson told the council he was dubious about the projected 2.5 percent GRT increase in the city’s budget.

“It’s a fairly substantial increase,” Henderson said.

Showers bring city 2.77 inches

When the 2.77 inches of rain that fell from Monday night to Tuesday morning is added to the running total since the beginning of the year, Roswell is doing well above average with nearly 10 inches.

The Roswell International Air Center reported 2.77 inches of rain from Monday night through Tuesday morning, according to the National Weather Service in Albuquerque.

On Monday, 2.22 inches fell at the airport, while .55 inches was reported Tuesday morning.

“Roswell had a bunch of rain,” said Troy Marshall, a meteorologist technician for the NWS. That was the most rainfall in a 24-hour period since May 24, when 4.4 inches of rain fell at the airport. Total precipitation so far this year is 9.71 inches.

Marshall said this is good news, because the normal value for this time of year is 6.8 inches.

The precipitation varied

New poll says state Commissioner: 89 at FLETC tested positive for TB Senate race tightening DHS tight-lipped on immigrant

BY JEFF TUCKER RECORD STAFF WRITER

A new poll taken 100 days before November’s general election says Republican challenger Allen Weh is closing the gap with U.S. Sen. Tom Udall in New Mexico’s Senate race, although another recent poll says Udall has a comfortable lead.

The poll conducted by CBS News and the New York Times Sunday showed Udall had a 7 percentage point lead over Weh. The poll has a margin of error of 3.6 percent.

However, a poll conducted

July 21 and 22 by Rasmussen Reports indicates Udall had a 22-point lead over Weh. That poll has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.

Weh said Tuesday the CBS News/New York Times is encouraging.

“We’re not saying this is the final poll because it’s not, but it’s one of several that we’ve seen that all put this race within single digits,” Weh said. “We do believe this is going to be a tight race.”

Eighty-nine out of 603 Central Americans housed at the Federal Law Enforcement T raining Center in Artesia have tested positive for tuberculosis (TB), according to Eddy County Commissioner Royce Pearson, who attended a briefing held July 22 at the center

High school graduation rates in New Mexico are low, and improving the graduation rates in Roswell is a concern for Pat Lujan, director of instruction for the Roswell Independent School District.

In 2012, New Mexico had an average freshman graduation rate of less than 70 percent, according to a study by the National Center for Education Statistics.

“We had 64 students apply to drop out last year,”

HIGH 94 LOW 64

TODAY’S FORECAST

Lujan told the Roswell Kiwanis Club members on Tuesday. “I met with everyone of those students and their parents, and discussed the requirements and regulations, and guess how many of those students stayed in the program to complete their GED? Just one.”

Students leave high school for a number of reasons, but one of the excuses Lujan hears most often is that the student wants to go to work.

“They say school is boring, and the teachers aren’t

teaching them anything,” Lujan said. “But a majority of the time, they also say they are ready to go to work.”

Oftentimes, Lujan is seeing students who are working to help keep their families fed, and sometimes those high school students are also the primary breadwinner for their families, and are responsible for feeding their brothers and sisters.

“When you have children facing those types of responsibilities, you see the magnitude of the problem.”

High school dropouts in New Mexico face a 13 percent unemployment rate and ear n an average income of $11,426, according to the state Public Education Department website.

Nearly every good job requires some certification, license, apprenticeship, associate’s degree, or other advanced credential.

“You can’t even join the military today without a high school diploma,” Lujan said.

Unfortunately, more often than not, high school dropouts become a burden

on the taxpaying citizens, Lujan said, either because they cannot get employed and wind up on welfare or because they become involved in criminal activities. Keeping students in school and engaged not only makes life better for that student, but it lifts up the entire community.

SWAT responds to report of burglar’s barricade

Parks wins reserve champion

The Roswell SWAT squad was deployed to the 600 block of West Mathews Street Tuesday night after a report of a burglary suspect barricading himself inside a home. The city's full SWAT unit responded with its Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected vehicle and parked it in the yard of the home at 608 W. Mathews St., where the suspect was believed to be holed up. The SWAT team deployed chemical gas into the home and later searched the residence multiple times. The suspect had not been found as of 10 p.m. Sgt. Jim Preston of the Roswell Police Department said time was on the side of police in the apparent standoff because no one had been injured and no one was being held hostage. Preston said police made several attempts to make contact with the suspect, but were unable to establish communications with the man in the home.

Dozens of police officers and onlookers were still on the scene as of press time.

Reserve Champion Meat Pens winner is Haylie Parks.

Haylie, 9, was competing for the first time, and on Monday, she showed three rabbits — Elvis, Chipmunk and Rose. Haylie is a member of the 4-H at Del Norte Elementary School and she has been in 4-H for three years. She said she intends to compete in the Eastern New Mexico State Fair in October, but with different rabbits.

Forty-seven percent of respondents said Udall, while 40 percent said Weh. Fence sitters were rare in the YouGov poll.

Four percent of respondents said they lean toward Weh, while 4 percent said they lean toward Udall.

Only 2 percent said they would not vote, 2 percent said they were not sure for whom they wold vote, and 2 percent said they would vote for someone other than Udall and Weh. Udall did well with younger respondents. Sixty percent of respondents ages 18 to 29 said they would vote for Udall, while 19 percent said they would vote for Weh. Udall also led Weh in all other age groups.

Udall also fared far better in the poll than Weh with women, while Weh had an advantage with men.

Fifty-one percent of women said they would vote for Udall, while Weh received support from 32 percent of women.

Reserve Champion winner Brennan Vaz and Grand Champion winner of market swine Zoe Walker show their awards on Tuesday. Vaz, 15, is a sophomore at Roswell High, while Walker, 15, is a sophomore at Goddard High.

Vaz said he became involved with FFA his freshman year, but has been in 4-H as long as he can remember. “We’re good friends and have known each other a long time,” Vaz said of Walker. “We have a healthy rivalry, and we’re always competing. We’re friends, but we want to compete with each other.” Vaz’s hog, Maisy Dae, weighed 270 pounds. He will return to compete in dairy heifers today and steers on Thursday. Walker’s hog was named Swagalashious and weighed 219 pounds. She also won second in light weight market goats on Tuesday morning.

She will show beef heifers and market steers on Thursday. She is a member of the Goddard FFA both Walker and Vaz are members of Barn Buddies 4-H. “We are both competitive but we’re good sports about it,” Walker said.

Weh, while 42 percent of men said they would vote for Udall.

Udall also had commanding leads among black and Hispanic respondents, and also a 46-41 edge among white respondents.

Weh’s campaign issued a news release Tuesday saying Weh is closing in on Udall and is within striking distance.

Paige McKenzie, a spokeswoman for Weh, said the gap between Udall and Weh is more narrow than several of the more high-profile Senate races that Republicans are targeting.

Democrats have a 55-45 advantage in the Senate over Republicans.

“For incumbents, what you see is what you get,” the Weh campaign quoted poll-

ster Brian Tringali of the Tarrance Group, an Alexandria, Va.-based strategic research and polling firm.

“This is going to be a tight race.”

Weh’s campaign said YouGov will conduct the same poll three more times before the Nov. 4 general election.

The telephone poll commissioned by Rasmussen Reports July 21 and 22 asked: “If the 2014 election for U.S. Senate was held today, would you vote for Republican Allen Weh or Democrat Tom Udall?”

The statewide Rasmussen poll of 750 likely New Mexico voters found Udall had support from 54 percent of likely voters, while Weh had 33 percent.

Three percent of Ras-

mussen respondents like some other candidate in the Senate race, while 10 percent were undecided.

Dan Sena, Udall’s campaign manager, said Udall is not taking the race lightly.

“I can tell you Tom is absolutely taking this race seriously,” Sena said. “He’s humbled and grateful for the support of thousands of New Mexicans who know he’s working every day to do what’s right for our state. He looks forward to continuing to visit with New Mexicans across the state and talk to them about the work he’s doing to create jobs by fighting for our labs and bases, support middle-class families and ensure veterans get the care they have earned.”

Udall was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 2008, after representing New Mexico’s 3rd Congressional District from 1999 to 2009. He was also New Mexico’s attorney general from 1991 to 1999.

Weh, chief executive officer of CSI Aviation of Albuquerque, finished second in the 2010 GOP gubernatorial primary. He’s a retired U.S. Marine Corps colonel who served two tours in Vietnam, one on the Persian Gulf War, in the U.S. expedition in Somalia, and in Iraq.

Budget

Continued from Page A1

“In my own mind, I question if we’ll have the revenues to cover that.”

Henderson said he also had concer ns about a decade-old state law that has reduced the amount of gross receipt taxes collected by counties and municipalities around the state since they may no longer tax food and medicine.

The state has been making up the shortfalls in GRT revenues to the state’s various counties and municipalities, although that “hold harmless” program is phasing out beginning in 2015.

Henderson said Roswell would lose 11 percent of its hold harmless aid from the state.

The hold harmless aid to counties and municipalities is scheduled to be completely phased out by 2030.

Henderson said the city may legally raise its gross receipt tax rate by threeeighths of 1 percent, adding a tax rate of 0.375 percent to the city’s current rate of 7.125 percent.

Parts of Espanola, Red River, and two water and sanitation districts in Taos County currently have the state’s highest GRT rates at 8.4375 percent.

TB

Continued from Page A1

Rural Lea County and Lovington’s industrial park have the state’s lowest GRT rates at 5.5 percent.

“In my mind, this budget ought to be preparing for a reduction,” Henderson said of diminishing hold harmless aid.

Henderson said the city could raise taxes by threeeighths of 1 percent to make up the shortfall.

“We’ve either got to pass the tax to replace that loss or pare back about $3 million, or 11 percent of the budget,” Henderson said.

Henderson said if the city proceeds with plans to hire three or four more police officers, the city might have to lay off the police officers this time next year. Henderson proposed waiting until January, the midpoint of the city’s fiscal year, to hire police officers or proceed with building demolitions, “so I can support the budget.”

Fry said the city would lose only 6 percent of its hold harmless aid in the first year of reductions in the city’s 2015-16 fiscal year. Fry said the city stands to lose $250,000 to $300,000 in the first year of hold har mless reductions, and a total of about $3.6 million by 2030.

“I think Councilor Henderson makes a very valid point,” Fry said. “I still

positive skin test for TB indicates exposure and not necessarily an infectious condition. For example, a person who has received TB inoculations, such as a health care provider or missionary, will show a positive reaction.

TB is caused by a bacterium that usually attack the lungs, but TB bacteria can attack any part of the body such as the kidney, spine and brain. If not treated properly, TB can be fatal. TB is spread through the air from one person to another. The TB bacteria are put into the air when a person with TB disease of the lungs or throat coughs, sneezes, speaks or sings. People nearby may breathe in these bacteria and become infected. Tuberculosis was one of the leading causes of death in the United States in the early 20th century.

Currently, only four out of 100,000 Americans get the disease, while in Central American countries the rates are 10 times as high.

Pearson had posted on the KZ93 Radio in Artesia Facebook page a lengthy statement about his concerns on the health status of many of the illegal immigrants at the center. His Facebook post was circulated in emails that were sent to the Daily Record.

Pearson confirmed by telephone that he posted comments on the KZ93 Facebook page.

Pearson said he wants the federal government to be 100 percent transparent with all the activities at FLETC. Pearson said in his post that so far, 89 individuals at FLETC have tested positive on the TB skin test.

“They are watching 12 individuals that have shown no active indications of TB,” he wrote. “They have 23 that are scheduled for X-rays.”

Pearson added there were eight cases of lice and two cases of scabies.

Pearson said he heard at the meeting that a 14-month-old child was sent to Lubbock for treatment for viral pneumonia and that another 15-year -old is being treated at Eastern New Mexico Medical Center in Roswell for pneumonia.

believe this budget is sufficiently protected.”

“I appreciate the concerns,” Kintigh said of Henderson’s fiscal apprehension.

“As far as sacrificing police officers, I’d vote to cut the parking lot before I voted to cut police officers,” Grant said.

At the end of Tuesday’s meeting, Henderson offered to meet with the City Council’s Finance Committee “and see if we can come up with some type of agreement” on the budget.

Kintigh said he would arrange a Finance Committee meeting.

After the meeting, Oropesa said he would also meet with the Finance Committee. Oropesa said he preferred to express his budgetary concer ns to the Finance Committee before making them public.

“There were several things that I’m not too happy with in the budget,” Oropesa said.

The city’s proposed $110,332,668 budget adds three police officers, one animal control officer and a part-time custodian to the city’s 600-employee workforce.

He said that a female was transported to Lovelace Regional Hospital in Roswell for problems related to her pregnancy. It was reported that she was no longer expecting a baby. An ICE official has not confirmed or denied that the mother miscarried.

The group at the July 22 meeting was told that, per legislative mandates, the medical facilities would be paid at Medicare rates and that ICE would not pay any co-pay.

Pearson said they were told at an earlier public hearing not to worry because the federal government would pay for everything.

On the government’s lack of transparency for the positive for TB tests, Pearson wrote, “The CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) website is not posting any of this!”

Brittany Behm, a spokeswoman for the CDC, said the Administration for Children and Families is the lead agency for unaccompanied children coming into the U.S. CDC is not involved in direct patient care of these children, she said.

Both of these agencies are a part of the Department of Health and Human Services.

Kenneth Wolfe, deputy director of HHS, has not responded to an email from the Daily Record.

Pearson said another problem is solid waste at the barracks housing the immigrants and that more dumpsters are needed.

On the evening of July 25, a bus with a Department of Homeland Security license plate was observed at the Roswell International Air Center. Jennifer Brady Griego, airport manager, confirmed that an outbound flight of illegals departed that day.

She said DHS did not inform her of the flight nor was she told of the number of passengers on the manifest.

Mike Gregory, an air traffic controller at the airport, said, “No, they don’t tell us [in advance] they come in when they come in.

Not sure where they originate, probably, Dallas-Fort Worth. I think they are going to Guatemala.”

By mid-afternoon Tuesday, about 20 or 30 customers were still without power in Roswell, but Reeves expected that everything would be back to normal by 6 p.m. or sooner.

“As the FLETC facility reaches maximum capacity, I am increasingly concerned for the health and safety of the women and children at FLETC and for the local community. The virus that has caused two residents to be put in isolation has halted all departures,” Pearce said.

Growing up in a family with 14 siblings, Lujan said he knew firsthand the draw students have toward dropping out — he had five siblings who failed to complete high school.

“The dif ference was, once they dropped out, my father made them go to work the very next day,” Lujan said.

“And they were expected to pay rent and pay for expenses; there wasn’t any laying around the house.”

Another program the district has implemented is geared toward ending bullying in the school district, Lujan said.

“It was about four years ago we realized we needed to have this program, and we were ahead of the curve,” Lujan said. The program was implemented in all the district’s schools and grade levels, with an emphasis on teaching children when to report bullying and who to

This decision by DHS is a concern, Pearce said, because it may cause an unexpected burden on local medical resources as patients are moved nearly an hour away from the center for treatment.

report it to.

However, even with the program in place, bullying still occurs, Lujan said, although overall the program seems to be working. “The program is up and running and I feel it is very successful,” Lujan said. The faculty works with parents and students to determine a plan of action to end bullying, but with both problems — bullying and drop-outs — the responsibility ultimately falls to the student, and oftentimes, the student does not have the necessary character traits to succeed.

“When I was young, my parents taught me responsibility, integrity, and they taught me that to be successful I was going to have to work at it and do whatever it took,” Lujan said. “Now, too many of these young people aren’t willing to do the work. When I talk to them about credit recovery programs, or the GED program, I tell them that if they are willing to take the courses online for credit or study the GED materials for the test, then they can succeed. However, too many of them just aren’t willing to do the work.”

OPINION/LOCAL

Lois Lowry’s ‘The Giver’ a portent of what might be?

With his approval numbers sinking to 39 percent a week ago, according to the Gallup tracking poll, President Obama isn’t alone in having a bad summer. So is Hollywood.

Entertainment Weekly calls gross receipts for what should have been a blockbuster July 4-6 weekend “downright terrifying.”

Writes EW, “Not only were grosses down 45 percent from last year’s holiday, according to Boxofficemojo.com, but it was Hollywood’s worst July 4 weekend since 1999.

(And that’s not taking into account inflation. In fact, this was the worst July-holiday weekend for ticket sales since the summer of ‘Dragnet’ in 1987.)”

Arriving in theaters next week is a film that could reverse the trend.

It’s called “The Giver,” based on the best-selling novel by Lois Lowry, which won the 1994 Newbery Medal. The film has an A-list cast, comprised of Meryl Streep, Jeff Bridges, Katie Holmes and

CAL

Taylor Swift.

For those unfamiliar with the book, the storyline depicts what occurs when a society deliberately destroys its social and moral foundations for a “higher purpose.” It is “Brave New World” meets “The Matrix” with a dash of “The Stepford Wives” thrown in. In the film, a teenage boy named Jonas (Hollywood aged the main characters for dramatic effect; they were younger in Lowry’s book) is the main character through whom the story is told. Jonas lives in a futuristic society in which all war, hatred and pain have been expunged.

Even prejudice has been eliminated. So has love. There is no competition and everyone looks and acts alike. Apologies abound (as do acceptances of apologies) to the point of insincerity. When a child reaches age 16, he or she is assigned a job. Spouses are assigned and couples are allowed just two children. They are born to “Birthmothers” who never see them, and spend their first year in something called a Nurturing Center with other babies, or “newchildren.”

The website Sparknotes expands on the plot: “When their children are grown, family units dissolve and adults live together with Childless Adults until they are too old to function in the society. Then they spend their last years being cared for in the House of the Old until they are finally ‘released’ from the society.”

Released is a euphemism for euthanasia.

The “Giver,” played by Jeff

Roswell Daily Record

Bridges, is the keeper of memories. He remembers a time when people loved, were ambitious and enjoyed personal freedom. He passes along those memories to Jonas, who bravely rediscovers his humanity with all its flaws and joys.

All movies have a “message.”

“The Giver” has a message for contemporary American culture. As we have thrown off all restraint, individualized morality and considered every idea as having equal value, “The Giver” shows where this could ultimately lead.

I was skeptical when I first heard about the film because it is distributed by The Weinstein Company, run by brothers Bob and Harvey (Harvey is a big Obama supporter), but became less so when I learned that Walden Media produced it. Walden Media, an entertainment company that specializes in family-oriented material, gave us the Oscar -winning “Ray” and “The Chronicles of Nar-

nia” series.

At the end of “The Matrix,” Neo says: “I didn’t come here to tell you how this is going to end. I came here to tell you how this is going to begin. Now, I’m going to hang up this phone, and I’m going to show these people what you don’t want them to see. I’m going to show them a world without you ... a world without rules and controls, without borders or boundaries, a world where anything is possible.”

“The Giver” echoes a similar theme. It is entertaining, but also instructive. It’s time to seriously think about where we’re headed.

“The Giver” shows us in ways few movies do.

EDITORIAL

Bias police can leave you speechless

Perhaps there is just not enough discrimination to occupy federal bureaucrats. How else to explain the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s lawsuit filed last month against Wisconsin Plastics Inc. for firing employees who were unable to speak English?

The case came to light when 11 Hmong and Hispanic workers at the Green Bay, Wis., plastic and metal manufacturer complained to the EEOC following their dismissal in the fall of 2012.

“Such alleged conduct violates Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which protects employees from discrimination based on national origin, which includes the linguistic characteristics of a national origin group,” the EEOC claimed in a press release.

“Our experience at the EEOC has been that so-called ‘English only’ rules and requirements of English fluency are often employed to make what is really discrimination appear acceptable,” EEOC regional attorney John C. Hendrickson lectured.

“But superficial appearances are not fooling anyone.”

The EEOC is suing for the former employees’ lost wages and punitive damages that could reportedly be up to $200,000 per employee, for a maximum of $2.2 million.

The EEOC’s charges are “false and completely without merit,” Wisconsin Plastics contended in a statement. The company noted that at the time the employees were laid off, 91 percent of its nearly 300 employees were racial and ethnic minorities.

The EEOC’s accusations are even more ironic and unlikely given the company’s history of trying to eliminate language barriers with its employees. As reported by Plastics News, Wisconsin Plastics was honored by a trade group in 2003 for its management’s attempts to learn the Southeast Asian Hmong language to improve communication with employees.

While one does wonder how employees with little to no English skills were hired in the first place, it hardly seems unreasonable to fire employees who are unable to communicate effectively with their supervisors. The EEOC’s actions are just another example of the government’s lack of respect for the freedom of contract and the troubling trend of bureaucratic overreach that is inexorable whenever government grows too big and powerful.

Guns in the workplace, NOT for pro-gun politicians

Its official title is the “Safe Carry Protection Act,” and when it was signed by Georgia’s Republican Gov. Nathan Deal, the National Rifle Association praised it as the “most comprehensive pro-gun bill in state history.” That’s because, under its provisions, Georgia residents are now able to carry guns into churches, bars and public buildings.

Georgia teachers, with a green light from their school board, can carry guns into their classrooms. This may explain why the statute is better known as the “Guns Everywhere” law.

While Christ remains for many the true Prince of Peace, and while firearms in church-

were a lot smarter than that.

But here’s the inconsistency. Those same Georgia legislators who championed the “Guns Everywhere” law “to arm law-abiding citizens in order to confront and to take down, if necessary, ar med law-breakers” in libraries or fast-food restaurants exempt one place where Georgians cannot bear arms: the state capitol in Atlanta — the very place where those legislators work.

Georgia legislators are not alone in voting to keep guns out of their own workplace.

Three-dozen states, which, like all 50, have their own concealed-carry laws that permit citizens to carry guns into

public places, specifically prohibit law-abiding citizens from bringing firearms into their state capitols, where, incidentally, those very legislators can be found.

Credit goes to Esme Deprez and William Selway of Business Week for capturing this glaring inconsistency, which some might even call hypocrisy on the part of progun politicians, when they interviewed South Dakota Republican Rep. Steve Hickey who owns 17 firearms, is a dues-paying NRA member and favors the untrammeled right of South Dakotans to pack heat in public places, that is

Joe Canon remembered; an Obama promise to vets Roswell Daily Record

Another former Roswell Veterans Honor Guard member and fellow Purple Heart recipient, Joe Canon, was laid to rest yesterday. Joe was extremely dedicated to his fellow veterans, an organizer/planner and one of the nicest guys you would ever want to know. In fact, he was one of our Honor Guard founders with one of the longest, continuous guard service records in our team. Joe was also one of the early organizers of our Roswell American Legion.

To take a quick glimpse of this unique “veteran serving veterans,” here is an excerpt from Joe’s brief history essay he compiled a few years ago.

“The Honor Guard was formed in 1982 — a rag tag group of veterans from all branches of the military. We had no uniforms at all, – only caps from our various Veterans organizations. We soon decided to get dress

except the state capitol, where, according to Hickey, “We have the most contentious issues being debated in public policy, affecting people in irate, angrily ways and af fecting millions and millions of dollars.”

Here in Washington, within the space of five days, two law-abiding Americans, the press secretary for U.S. Rep. Tom Marino, R-Pa., and the past president of the National Turkey Federation and the presidentelect of the National Pork Producers Council, were separately arrested and jailed after Capitol police found each trying to bring a pistol and ammunition into the Cannon House Of fice Building, which connects to the Capitol. If found guilty, the sentence could be five years in jail.

Capitol Hill, where Congress spends its time, has become an armed camp with uniformed and plain-clothes security people everywhere. It’s true that in 1998 there was a tragic

outfits as much as possible, without going to much expense. It was summer, so we decided on black pants, black shoes and socks, black ties and white shirts, as most of us already had these in our wardrobe. Some didn’t adhere to the code in the beginning. I recall one funeral where one of the members came in a T-shirt and Levis.

We used Springfield 1903 rifles for the ceremonies. The American Legion had 10 in almost mint condition. These were loaned to a local high school for their junior ROTC department. The sergeant in charge left and we haven’t shooting, resulting in the deaths of two Capitol Hill police officers. But that was 16 years ago, long before four-fifths of the current House Members had even come to Washington, and before the strong national movement to expand citizens’ right to carry firearms where they choose.

It’s clear these progun/anti-gun control politicians must believe that more citizens carrying more guns in the community or the workplace will make you and me safer. But somehow these same politicians do not believe those same citizens with those same firearms would make the state capitol and U.S. Capitol safer places.

They believe these citizens could somehow be a threat to THEM. If more guns were to make people safer, then the United States — which, with 310 million guns in private hands, leads all nations — would be the safest place on Earth.

LETTER

Dear editor, Since the city has found big money to repair Union, ramps, curbs, etc., they have enough left to put driveway aprons, curbs and sidewalks north of Stone on Delaware to 12th Street. They stopped on Stone almost 70 years ago and now when it rains (thank God it’s not that often) Delaware is washing down to 12th Street.

They are even putting sidewalks on East College toward Atkinson where only ground owls live. They have better paved alleys on the north side of town than streets south of College.

Our tax (property) should be used to fix (our) streets also. I would love to see our city council representatives look at our area and do something instead of talking before election and then forgetting.

Another important issue is Memory Lane Cemetery on 19th Street. We have a group of concerned people who have taken it upon themselves to clean it up. Why can’t the city or county send the jailbirds to do community service at the cemetery once a month? There is a saying among military veterans, “Gone but not forgotten.” Let me tell you, 300 or more veterans buried at that cemetery have been forgotten for a long time. We need some help.

“We met with commanders of the local veterans organizations and it was agreed that each group would donate funds to buy jackets.

ting, let’s evaluate a pre-election promise to veterans by BO, and see how he measures up on delivering. The following is an Obama campaign handout from the “Campaigner-in-Chief” himself.

As a member of the Senate Committee on Veterans’ Affairs and during his 2008 presidential campaign, Barack Obama has fought to end benefit disparities, bring homeless veterans in off the streets, strengthen mental health care, add billions of dollars in additional Department of Veterans Affairs funding, and (reform) a system that often places barriers between veterans and the benefits they have earned. As president, Obama will ensure we honor the sacred trust (to care for) our nation’s veterans. In an Obama administration, the VA will provide benefits and care that will be (accessible), high-quality,

reliable, responsive and fair, (year) after year. He will care for our wounded soldiers; improve the transition to civilian life; fully fund VA medical care; (improve the quality of VA health care); fix the Veterans Benefits Administration; honor veterans with the benefits and services they have earned, and (rebuild and repair the military). Not only is this the right thing to do — it is a necessary investment for a great nation to maintain an all-volunteer force.”

I think it’s reasonable to conclude this is another (among many) disappointments our fearless leader has bestowed on our “grateful nation.” Maybe he could, just once, say “me” didn’t deliver (and maybe throw in Billy “C” to boot)! God bless.

HONOLULU (AP) — Janice Nakamura knows the financial burden of going without health care, and she’s thankful for the Hawaii law that strictly expansive, mandates employer-provided coverage for her and her family.

Without that, “it would be a choice between paying for medical coverage or eating,” she said.

The Nakamuras are among the 763,000 Hawaii residents — more than half the state’s population — who rely on a unique, longstanding system that has been jeopardized by the federal health care overhaul.

State officials are concerned that if they don’t quickly find a solution, Hawaii will end up getting “punished for being too good,” as University of Hawaii law professor Hazel Bay described.

The problem starts with the Hawaii Health Connector, a federally mandated insurance marketplace that’s losing money. A temporary funding plan went into effect this month, but once that money runs out, lawmakers will need to settle on a long-term fix that officials characterize as a choice between propping up a failing system at the expense of taxpayers, or turning control over to federal authorities at the risk of unravelling the state’s comprehensive Prepaid Health Care Act. “That’s the danger I’ve warned against,” said Attorney General David Louie.

“The benefits mandated by the state are superior. We don’t want to lose that.”

It’s too early to guess how the Connector dilemma will play out. But as officials sort through the process of implementing the sweeping federal law, it’s clear their key concern is finding a compromise that preserves Hawaii’s high standards.

Hawaii was the first U.S. state to enact employer mandated health care. The 40-year -old law requires employers, even those with only one worker, to provide subsidized insurance plans.

Penalties for noncompliance go beyond fines — those that flout the law face having their businesses shut down. The federal Affordable Care Act, by contrast, requires nothing of employers currently but will eventually require large companies to either provide insurance or pay a fine.

The Hawaii law extends to those working as few as 20 hours per week, whereas the federal law kicks in at 30 hours. And Hawaii regulations put a harder cap on how much income employees have to contribute in comparison to federal requirements.

To preserve these benefits and show support for President Barack Obama, who championed the law, Hawaii officials decided to build and operate their own health care exchange and announced those plans before any other state.

Last crew member of Enola Gay dies in Georgia ATLANTA (AP) — The last surviving member of the crew that dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, hastening the end of World War II and forcing the world into the atomic age, has died in Georgia.

Theodore VanKirk, also known as “Dutch,” died Monday of natural causes at the retirement home where he lived in Stone Mountain, Georgia, his son Tom VanKirk said. He was 93.

VanKirk flew nearly 60 bombing missions, but it was a single mission in the Pacific that secured him a place in history. He was 24 years old when he served as navigator on the Enola Gay, the B-29 Super fortress that dropped the first atomic bomb deployed in wartime over the Japanese city of Hiroshima on Aug. 6, 1945.

He was teamed with pilot Paul T ibbets and bombardier Tom Ferebee in Tibbets’ fledgling 509th Composite Bomb Group for Special Mission No. 13.

The mission went perfectly, VanKirk told The Associated Press in a 2005

Her golf game had to be temporarily put on hold in 1991 when she contracted Guillain-Barre syndrome. Luckily, once she recovered, she was back on the links. In 1995, she lost her beloved Wayne, but she kept playing. It took developing rheumatoid arthritis and an inability to grip a golf club to actually slow her down. She still loved the game and could be found watching tour naments on television and following her favorite players’ progress on a weekly basis.

Glen was bor n June 18, 1959, in Clovis, New Mexico to Doyle and Fana Lou Miles and grew up in Dexter, NM and Portales, NM surrounded by the love of family and friends. Most of his adult life was spent in Montrose.

He was a great man who was loved everywhere he went. Glen had a real talent for mechanical work and could fix anything. He was a jack of all trades and a hard worker. Glen was known for his big smile, soft heart, honesty, and a willingness to help those in need. Even though his own health was poor, he was the one people called upon for assistance, and he was always there for his family and friends. He was a prankster, loved a good joke, and could tell countless funny stories from his childhood. In the eyes of his nephew and nieces, he was a legend in his own time, and he was adored by his sisters and parents.

Glen was a very courageous person who never complained about the many battles he fought, but put on his big smile and carried on making friends as he went. He felt extremely blessed to have been the recipient of a liver transplant which extended his time with us.

June Stanley was born on June 17, 1931, in Wichita Falls, Texas, to Elva Cor nelius Williams (Boe) and Myrtle Irene Horry Williams. She had two siblings, EC Buzz Williams and Patsy Swift; both preceded her in death.

In 1948, she married Charles Jackson. June and Charles had 3 beautiful daughters, all of whom survive June in Roswell; Joy Carol Jurecek (Mike), Judy Kay Jackson, and Diana “Jill” Livingston. Her marriage to Charles ended in 1973. She then met and married Lawrence Wayne Stanley in 1974. Wayne was the man responsible for putting a golf club in June’s hand for the first time. Being an avid golfer himself, he not only wanted a partner in life, but he wanted a partner on the golf course as well. Thus began her love affair with the game of golf. She loved it so much; she even competed in the National Senior Olympics multiple times and won a silver medal in

June was a longtime member of First United Methodist Church where she was a member of The Searchers Sunday School class for years. Her love of music and her love of the Lord also prompted her to sing in the Silver Cords Choir. She was famous for her pecan pies and was always asked to make them if there was any type of bake sale or bake auction.

She had an impeccable sewing ability, sewing anything from cheerleading uniforms to wedding gowns to doll clothes to quilts. In her earlier years, she was a bookkeeper for Johnston, Wilson, England CPAs. This led to her ability to keep immaculate records for everything, and we do mean everything. June was a member of Chapter K PEO, and was proud to be in that chapter with her daughter Joy, and her granddaughters Carri and Emily. She is survived by three granddaughters, all of Roswell; Carri Rebecca Jurecek, Emily Suzanne Hill, and Dianna “Anna” Suzanne Taylor (Timmy), one great-granddaughter; Lakynn Starlee Taylor, and one great-grandson; Case Paul Taylor. She was predeceased by one grandson; Robert “Bobby” Lee Livingston and a step-son Charles “Chuck” Stanley.

June is also survived by numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces, greatnephews, friends, golfing buddies, her two cats Jessie and Seely, five outdoor cats, and numerous turtles.

Nagasaki. The blast and its after math claimed 80,000 lives. Six days after the Nagasaki bombing, Japan surrendered.

Whether the United States should have used the atomic bomb has been debated endlessly.

VanKirk told the AP he thought it was necessary because it shortened the war and eliminated the need for an Allied land invasion that could have cost more lives on both sides.

“I honestly believe the use of the atomic bomb saved lives in the long run.

There were a lot of lives saved. Most of the lives saved were Japanese,” VanKirk said.

But it also made him wary of war.

“The whole World War II experience shows that wars don’t settle anything.

And atomic weapons don’t settle anything,” he said. “I personally think there shouldn’t be any atomic bombs in the world — I’d like to see them all abolished.

“But if anyone has one,” he added, “I want to have one more than my enemy.”

A gathering of family and friends is scheduled for 5 to 7 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 2, 2014, at Ballard Funeral Home. A memorial service is scheduled for 2 p.m., Sunday, Aug. 3, 2014, at First United Methodist Church with Dr. W. Douglas Mills of First United Methodist Church officiating.

Memorial contributions may be made in Mrs. Stanley’s name to the Cowboy Bell Scholarship Fund, 200 N. Pennsylvania Ave., Roswell, NM 88201 or First United Methodist Church Music Program, 200 N. Pennsylvania Ave., Roswell, NM 88201.

VanKirk stayed on with the military for a year after the war ended. Then he went to school, ear ned degrees in chemical engineering and signed on with DuPont, where he stayed until he retired in 1985. He later moved from California to the Atlanta area to be near his daughter.

Like many World War II veterans, VanKirk didn’t talk much about his service until much later in his life when he spoke to school groups, his son said.

“I didn’t even find out that he was on that mission until I was 10 years old and read some old news clippings in my grandmother’s attic,” Tom VanKirk told the AP in a phone interview Tuesday.

Instead, he and his three siblings treasured a wonderful father, who was a great mentor and remained active and “sharp as a tack” until the end of his life.

“I know he was recognized as a war hero, but we just knew him as a great father,” Tom VanKirk said.

Generation of tanners see spike in melanoma

Roswell Daily Record

WASHINGTON (AP) — Stop sunbathing and using indoor tanning beds, the acting U.S. surgeon general warned in a report released Tuesday that cites an alarming 200 percent jump in deadly melanoma cases since 1973.

The report blames a generation of sun worshipping for the $8 billion spent to treat all forms of skin cancer each year.

Rear Adm. Boris Lushniak said state and local officials need to do more to help people cover up, such as providing more shade at parks and sporting events.

Schools should encourage kids to wear hats and sunscreen and schedule outdoor activities when the sun is low in the sky. And colleges and universities should eliminate indoor tanning beds on campus much as they would prohibit tobacco use, he added.

“We need more states and institutions on board with these policies that discourage or restrict indoor tanning by our youth,” Lushniak said. “Tanned skin is damaged skin.”

The surgeon general’s “call to action” plan is part of a broader push this year by government officials and public health advocates to raise awareness on what they say has become a major public health problem. While other cancers such as lung cancer are

decreasing, skin cancer is rising rapidly. According to the Department of Health and Human Services, 5 million people are treated for skin cancer each year.

And the number of Americans with skin cancer in the past three decades eclipse the number of all other cancers combined.

Melanoma is the deadliest form of skin cancer with 9,000 people dying each year from the mostly preventable disease.

Stacey Escalante of Las Vegas, Nevada, blames years of sunbathing with baby oil and using indoor tanning beds for her melanoma diagnosis in 2005. The mother of two was a 34-year -old television reporter training for a marathon when she found a small red growth the size of a pencil eraser on her lower back. By the time she saw a doctor, the cancer had traveled to her lymph node, requiring two surgeries that left an 8-inch scar.

She then spent two years on an experimental drug.

Escalante said she realizes now that she was lucky to survive, and was foolish to think she was immune to skin cancer because her father was Hispanic and she tanned well. Now an advocate for early detection, Escalante is pushing for state legislation prohibiting minors from using indoor tanning beds.

US bars Kurdish oil from entering Texas

FOR T WOR TH, Texas (AP) — The U.S. has barred a shipment of Kurdish crude oil from reaching the Texas coast amid concerns independent oil sales from Kurdistan could further weaken Iraq’s fragile central government as it struggles to contain a Sunni military offensive.

A U.S. District judge ordered a U.S. Marshal to seize the cargo — about 1 million barrels of crude oil, worth about $100 million — aboard the tanker United Kalavryta in response to a complaint filed by the Iraqi government claiming the oil was smuggled out of Kurdistan without its permission.

However, the tanker, anchored some 60 miles off the Galveston coast, is in international waters and thus outside U.S. jurisdiction. If it moves in closer so that smaller vessels can deliver its oil to shore, the U.S. Marshal will act on the court warrant and seize the cargo from those vessels, spokesman Dave Oney said.

The United Kalavryta left a Turkish port in June carrying the crude from a newly opened pipeline that transports crude from the Kurdish oil fields. The buyer was not immediately known.

As the ship approached Texas, Baghdad acted on a threat to sue anyone who buys Kurdish oil, pre-emptively filing a civil suit in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Texas. On Tuesday, Iraqi Oil Ministry spokesman Assem Jihad welcomed the U.S. judge’s seizure order. “The Iraqi government considers these oil shipments to be illegal and we hope that everybody in the world will respect our measures,” he said.

Iraq’s Supreme Court in June rejected a request from the central government to outlaw direct oil exports from the Kurdistan region, which some Kurdish officials have interpreted as a license for independent sales.

The U.S. has supported the Iraqi government’s restrictions on buying Kurdish oil that has not been brokered by Iraq’s oil ministry, but the State Department has yet to intervene in any sale.

“We believe that Iraq’s energy resources belong to the Iraqi people and certainly have long stated that it needs to go through the central government,” State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said during a briefing Monday.

For years Iraq’s Kurdish north has feuded with the Baghdad government over control of oil fields in the autonomous region.

But the two sides have also worked together, with the Kurds twice providing critical support to al-Maliki’s bids for prime minister.

After the Kurds independently shipped oil to Turkey in January, the central government in Baghdad retaliated by withholding the 17 percent share of the national budget normally earmarked for the Kurdish region — an estimated $20 billion.

BORN TODAY Actor Arnold Schwarzenegger (1947), sculptor Henry Moore (1898), industrialist Henry Ford (1863)

Review: ‘Guardians’ is irreverent but not enough At the height of their powers, our overlords at Marvel have deigned to prove, like an emperor tolerating a court jester, that they do, in fact, have a sense of humor.

The Marvel universe, of course, isn’t entirely lacking comedy, as we’ve seen in “Iron Man” and “The Avengers.” But on the whole, the Marvel kingdom is built on an unshakable foundation of self-seriousness. The comic book studio seems to fear that if the solemnity of its fiction isn’t diligently guarded, people might start questioning whether all these men in spandex merit quite so much attention.

Yet “Guardians of the Galaxy,” a 3-D space opera about a ragtag crew of mercenaries, is Marvel’s most irreverent film yet, and has a welcome, slightly self-mocking tone that dares to suggest intergalactic battles over orbs might actually be a tad silly.

This is all very much to the good, but the problem with “Guardians of the Galaxy,” directed by James Gunn, is the weakness of the comedy it wears so proudly. It takes more than a soundtrack full of ’70s tunes, a talking raccoon and a few gags about “Footloose” to be funny. It’s “zany” in quotes.

As if demonstrating its

The Guardians, who were first introduced in a 1969 comic, are far from Marvel’s star players. But their not-primetime-player status is freeing to Gunn, whose 2010 comedy “Super” starred Rainn Wilson as a wannabe crime fighter. He wrote the film with Nicole Perlman, clearly aspiring for a rollicking adventure in the mold of “Indiana Jones” or “Star Wars,” which the movie’s poster evoked.

tonal distance from Marvel’s other planetary bodies, “Guardians of the Galaxy” takes place at the far reaches of space, where we find Peter Quill (Chris Pratt) skipping along on an abandoned planet. He removes his mask, presses play on a Walkman and does something normally sacrosanct in Marvel-land: He dances.

Blaring is the irresistible 1974 hit “Come and Get Your Love” by Redbone, the first of many such old

radio hits.

The music, as we learned in the prologue, is from a mixtape given to Quill as a child by his cancer-stricken mother shortly before her death. Distraught, he rushes outside only to — in quite the double-whammy — be beamed up by a spaceship.

Twenty-six years later, Quill is a Han Solo-like scavenger who stumbles across a silver orb also sought by some powerfully evil forces: Ronan the

Accuser (Lee Pace, obscured by makeup but still a severe presence) and his boss, Thanos (Josh Brolin). The warm spirit of “Guardians” owes much to Pratt, the guileless, formerly doughy “Parks and Recreation” star; his casting in inspired.

The resulting scrum for the orb introduces several more seekers: the greenskinned Gamora (Zoe Saldana), the hulking Drax (Dave Bautista) and a CGI odd couple: a bitterly sar-

But the film is terribly overstuffed and many of the jokes get drowned out by the special effects. Presumably awaiting meatier work sequels to come, fine actors like Glenn Close, John C. Reilly and Benicio Del Toro come and go with just a few lines. (How can a movie seeking humor in outer space not utilize Reilly?)

The pervasive movie references detract from the stab at freshness, and “Guardians” depends all too much on the whimsy of ’70s anthems for an original beat. Others, eager for any playfulness from Marvel, will surely be more excited by “Guardians of the Galaxy.”

To them I quote Solo: “Laugh it up, Fuzzball.”

Scott sees Lakers contending soon

Byron Scott smiles as he is introduced as the Los Angeles Lakers new head coach during a press conference, Tuesday.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif. (AP) — Byron Scott was a key component of the Los Angeles Lakers’ Showtime teams, a smooth shooting guard with sizzling competitive fire. He believes his purple-and-gold championship pedigree makes him the ideal coach to return the struggling 16-time champions to NBA contention.

“This organization is all about championships, period,” Scott said Tuesday at his introductory news conference. “We don’t look at Western Conference finals, Western Conference championships. We look at (NBA) championships. And we know we have some work ahead of us, but I’m excited. ... I love challenges anyway, so this is going to be fun.”

Scott’s fellow Lakers greats are already backing that notion. Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Jamaal Wilkes surprised Scott before he was for mally named the 25th coach in franchise history, standing behind him in a towering show of support.

In fact, Scott hadn’t even said a word before Magic took the microphone and praised his longtime backcourt mate.

“We wish we could put the uniform on for you and help you, but we will support you,” Johnson said. “Con-

Noon Optimist finishes second in state

BY AUSTIN MCNABB SPORTS EDITOR The Roswell Noon Optimist Little League team made it to the Southwest Regionals held in Waco, Texas, before falling short in walk-off fashion to Eastdale 4-1.

The 11-12 year olds’ journey started when they went 4-0 in the District 2 tournament in Alamogordo, outscoring their opponents by a whopping 68-9.

In their first game, they dismantled Valley 24-0. In their second game, Owen Alsup hit a walk-off ground rule double as they beat Alamogordo 6-5. In their third game, they destroyed Lions Hondo 31-3 before beating Alamogordo 7-1 in a championship rematch game.

In the state tournament in Carlsbad, they started off with an edging 5-4 win over Deming. In their second game, they won another close one against Los Alamos 3-1. The next game they suffered their first loss of the playoffs, losing to Eastdale 11-1, which put them in the losers bracket. There they faced Altamont, staying alive with a 10-7 victory before being eliminated by Eastdale.

Noon Optimist finished as the New Mexico State Runner-Up for the 2014 season, finishing 7-2 in the playoffs.

Others strongly disagreed.

Unlike a proposed settlement in a similar lawsuit against the NFL, this deal does not set aside any money to pay players who suffered brain trauma. Instead, athletes can sue individually for damages; the NCAA-funded tests that would gauge the extent of neurological injuries could establish grounds for doing just that.

One plaintiffs' attorney not involved in the negotiations called it a “terrible deal” that lets the NCAA off the hook far too easily. Jay Edelson called the agreement “window dressing,” saying the NCAA will be able to settle one-off suits for several thousand each. He estimated that a single, class-action damages settlement could have been worth $2 billion to players.

“Instead,” he said, “it's worthless.”

The settlement is primarily directed at men and women who participated in basketball, football, ice hockey, soccer, wrestling, field hockey and lacrosse.

Women’s soccer league finale coming

BY AUSTIN MCNABB SPORTS EDITOR The Roswell Ladies Soccer League is having a doubleheader of finales on Sunday.

The select league features women in the age range of 16 to 50 playing in Roswell and Artesia during the summer.

On Sunday at 5:30 p.m. in an Artesia duel, Beastmode will face Soup-a-Stars.

At 7:30 p.m., Roswell teams Punishers and Blast will face off. Blast is composed of Goddard soccer players who have already won the league.

If the Punishers win, they will get second place with the same being said for Beastmode. However, if both teams win, it will come down to tie-breaking rules.

According to Punishers coach Fabian Rivera, the players include those who have played soccer at a high school, collegiate and beyond level.

The double-header is free and will take place at the Cielo Grande Soccer Complex.

CHICAGO (AP) — The NCAA agreed on Tuesday to help athletes with head injuries in a proposed settlement of a class-action lawsuit that college sports' governing body touted as a major step forward but that critics say doesn't go nearly far enough.

The deal, filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago, calls for the NCAA to toughen retur n-to-play rules for players who receive head blows and create a $70 million fund to pay for thousands of current and former athletes to undergo testing to determine whether they suffered brain trauma while playing football and other contact sports.

A lead attorney for the plaintiffs who spearheaded nearly a year of talks culminating in the agreement said the provisions would ultimately improve players' safety and leave open the possibility of damage payments later.

“I wouldn't say these changes solve the safety problems, but they do reduce the risks,” Chicago attorney Joseph Siprut said. “It's changed college sports forever.”

Playoffs could create chances for Big Ten teams

CHICAGO (AP) — As he watched the BCS championship game last season, Michigan State quarterback Connor Cook could not help but wonder: What if a playoff system were in place? Would the Spartans be playing for the biggest prize?

No need to wonder anymore.

The old BCS system is out. A four-team playoff to determine a national champion is being implemented this season, and that could open some more opportunities for the Big Ten and the other four power conferences.

“Hopefully, this will give everyone an equal opportunity to play for a national championship, which everyone wants,” Cook said Tuesday as the Big Ten wrapped up its two-day media event.

It was a chance the Spartans would have loved to have last season.

They went 13-1, beat Ohio State in the Big Ten championship game and knocked off Stanford to capture the Rose Bowl. But when the BCS

matchup arrived, it was Florida State taking on Auburn.

“You’re watching Auburn and Florida State and (thinking), ‘You know what? If we were playing either one of these teams, we feel like we could have won,” Cook said.

The last Big Ten team to win a national championship was Ohio State in 2002, and no one from the conference has played for one since the 2007 season, when the Buckeyes lost their second straight BCS title game.

Michigan State comes into this season with big goals. So does Ohio State after going 24-2 overall and 16-0 in regular -season conference play its first two years under coach Urban Meyer, but it’s not just the traditional powerhouses. Competitive programs that aren’t quite marquee names see an opportunity now that a playoff system is in place.

How about a national championship for Northwestern at some point? To coach Pat Fitzgerald, that’s now a possibility and his

reasoning goes beyond unbridled enthusiasm.

He sees a more even field and a bigger opportunity for his program under the new system. A big reason is the initial Top 25 released by the selection committee in late October will be based solely on performance to that point. The BCS Top 25 was released around the same time, but it incorporated the coaches and Harris polls, which had preseason rankings. That, in turn, might have skewed the strength of schedule component.

“Up until this year, I don’t know if we did (have a shot),” Fitzgerald said. “I don’t know if we did. I’m not sexy. We’re not sexy, you know? Our fans don’t click on websites enough, on dotcom sites. All that nonsense is gone. It’s all gone, and I’m not saying the BCS was bad. You’ve got to win, period, and I like it. I think everybody in this room should feel real confident that if you win the Big Ten championship game with a competitive

Roswell Daily Record

schedule (you’ll be in the playoff).

And you’ve got to win now. Don’t think in any of these conferences that you’re going to be a nine-win conference champion or a 10-win conference champion and you’re going to be in the final four; it ain’t gonna happen.”

Under the new system, Fitzgerald said, strength of schedule becomes a more fluid element.

Playing an opponent that is unexpectedly struggling could hurt it.

Then again, a team on the rise might give it a boost. And what about a team that’s short-handed because of injuries?

“We play a team in November that may have won eight games already but lost two or their of their star players in one of those games, and now we beat them by three touchdowns,” Fitzgerald said. “Now, the narrative from you guys is Michigan didn’t have A, B and C, that’s why Northwester n won by three touchdowns. That’s what’s going to be interesting to me, how those things influence it as opposed to

what the strength of your conference has been in the past.”

The new system probably won’t solve everything. There will be that fifth — and sixth, seventh or eighth — team that feels it deserves to be in the field.

For fans, travel could be an issue. If they go to the first playof f game, will they be able to afford a second trip? And if they decide to wait a round, their team might be eliminated.

The playoffs could also be a grind for the players, Meyer said.

Ohio State could go from playing rival Michigan to the Big Ten title game, a semifinal and a national championship.

“That’s a tough road,” said Meyer, who’s in favor of the playoffs. “I think the teams that play a rival, then a championship game ... at Florida, we played FSU and then played the SEC championship game, then played the title game. Now you add one more after that. I’m not sure you’ve got enough steam in the engine to finish that game.”

ESPN suspends Smith Arizona Cardinal John for comments on abuse Abraham arrested for DUI NEW YORK (AP) — ESPN has suspended outspoken sportscaster Stephen A. Smith for a week because of his comments about domestic abuse suggesting women should make sure that they don’t do anything to provoke an attack.

Smith’s commentary occurred during a discussion on ESPN2’s “First Take” last Friday about the NFL’s two-game suspension of Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice following charges he assaulted his now-wife. The remarks attracted widespread attention, including a stinging rebuke online from a fellow ESPN personality.

Smith issued an on-air apology Monday, saying it was the most egregious mistake of his career.

A day later, ESPN took action. The network’s chief executive, John Skipper, told ESPN’s staff in a memo it was done after a “thoughtful discussion” about appropriate actions with men and women in his company.

“I believe his apology was sincere and that he and we have learned from what we’ve collectively experienced,” Skipper said.

Smith will not appear on “First Take” or ESPN radio until Aug. 6, the network said.

During the Rice discussion, Smith alluded to women in abuse cases when

he said, “Let’s make sure we don’t do anything to provoke wrong action ... we got to also make sure that you can do your part to do whatever you can do to make, to try to make sure it doesn’t happen again.”

Shortly after Smith’s remarks, colleague Michelle Beadle responded on Twitter that “I was just forced to watch this morning’s First Take. A) I’ll never feel clean again B) I’m not aware that I can provoke my own beating.”

Beadle, host of ESPN2’s “SportsNation,” continued with a series of tweets.

She said that “Violence isn’t the victim’s issue. It’s the abuser’s. To insinuate otherwise is irresponsible and disgusting.”

Smith, during his apology, said it wasn’t his intention to say that women could be responsible for their own abuse. “It was not what I was trying to say,” he said. “Yet the failure to clearly articulate something dif ferent lies squarely on my shoulder.”

Smith didn’t explain the point that he was trying to make.

ESPN frowns upon its personalities attacking each other on social media or other forums. But in this case, the network said it has decided not to discipline Beadle.

DeKalb County Jail records show that the 36-year -old was taken into custody June 29 and released the same day.

Abraham was driving a black, 2013 Dodge Challenger that had stopped in the center southbound lane of a suburban Atlanta road the afternoon of June 29, Brookhaven, Georgia police said in an incident report. Abraham smelled of alcohol and failed voluntary sobriety tests — including reciting a portion of the alphabet.

Grizzlies sign GM Chris Wallace to multi-year deal

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Grizzlies controlling owner Robert Pera has removed the interim tag and named Chris Wallace as Memphis’ general manager, signing him to a multi-year contract keeping him with the franchise.

Pera announced the deal Tuesday but did not disclose any terms. Wallace had been serving as interim general manager since a front office shake-up May 19.

“Chris has been at the forefront and a stable presence throughout some of the Grizzlies’ greatest successes,” Pera said in a statement. “His strong bonds and experience, not only within the organization and NBA but also within the Memphis and MidSouth communities, make him the ideal fit to lead our basketball operations. We believe Chris’ skills and expertise to be vital in our continued success of our franchise.”

Wallace originally was hired as general manager and vice president of basketball operations in June 2007, and he put together the core that has gone to a team-record four straight playoff berths and reached the Grizzlies’ first Western Conference final in 2013. He drafted Mike Conley, brought in Zach Randolph who has been a two-time All Star in Memphis, traded for Marc Gasol and signed Tony Allen as a free agent.

As the interim general manager, Wallace helped since Vince Carter as a free agent earlier this month and oversaw the June draft that brought in Jordan Adams and Jarnell Stokes.

“Robert Pera is strongly committed to the success of the Grizzlies, and I am excited to continue working in tandem with Robert, our front office and our coaching staff in helping realize his vision for the franchise,” Wallace said.

Memphis is the seventh NBA franchise Wallace has worked with in his career. He spent 10 seasons as general manager of the Boston Celtics, was director of player personnel in the last of his four seasons with Miami and also has worked for the Knicks, Clippers, Nuggets and Trail Blazers.

Wallace also said on radio Tuesday that Ed Stefanski also is joining the Grizzlies and will be the team’s point person for talent evaluation. Wallace said Stefanski, a former general manager of the Philadelphia 76ers whose last job was with Toronto, will be based in Philadelphia where he has a home.

Schaub settles in as Raiders starting quarterback Roswell Daily Record

NAPA, Calif. (AP) — The anointed starting quarterback for the Oakland Raiders is strengthening his hold on the position this training camp instead of losing it.

Matt Schaub is showing signs that last year’s disastrous season in Houston might have been an aberration as he looks in complete command as Oakland’s starter.

The per formance comes in stark contrast to what happened with Matt Flynn last summer.

Acquired to be the starter in the offseason, Flynn lacked the necessary arm strength in training camp and ultimately lost his job to Terrelle Pryor before getting cut early in the season.

Despite the presence of bigarmed rookie Derek Carr, Schaub is showing no signs of giving up the starting position with the Raiders.

“Schauby’s getting his mojo

Wednesday, July 30, 2014

back,” said defensive tackle Antonio Smith, who was a teammate of Schaub’s in Houston during his highest and lowest moments as a pro. “He’s getting his confidence back. He’s starting to believe in himself again.

“He’s starting to throw with confidence. Those are things you need to be a successful quarterback. You would be surprised just much a mindset is important in this game. ... The moment you are doubting yourself is the moment you start throwing a lot of interceptions and stuff.”

That’s exactly what happened to Schaub last season with the Texans when he set an NFL record by having an interception returned for a touchdown in four straight games.

Schaub threw 14 interceptions in all while losing the starting job to Case Keenum and posting a 73

passer rating that was his lowest in seven seasons as a starter.

After starting the season with back-to-back wins, the Texans lost their final 14 games and traded Schaub to the Raiders for a sixth-round draft pick in March.

“It was like a snowball effect,” Smith said. “A lot of things went wrong early on even though you felt you were playing some good ball. But you had key things happen to you in key moments. Lost a few games, then everybody starting to panic trying to find something wrong. And then things just get all out of whack.”

Schaub has put 2013 in the past and is focusing instead on reviving his career in Oakland where he is enjoying the opportunity to learn a new offense under coordinator Greg Olson after spending seven years running Gary Kubiak’s system in Houston.

While Schaub lacks the true No. 1 receiver he had in Houston all those years with Andre Johnson, he is excited to work with Oakland’s group that includes James Jones, Rod Streater, Denarius Moore and Andre Holmes.

“We’re still trying to mold what our offense is going to be and what each guy’s role in it will be,” Schaub said. “We’ll find out what guys do well. What things work, what things we like to do against certain looks and defenses. ... It’s an exciting chance to get going with this football team and this organization and climb that mountain.”

Schaub had success during his tenure in Houston, making a pair of Pro Bowls during his seven seasons as a starter. In 2009, he led the NFL in yards passing (4,770), completions (396) and attempts

NFL. His 11 touchdowns were tied for fourth that season. He followed that performance in 2010 with 69 catches for 1,041 yards and seven touchdowns while starting all 16 games.

Austin quickly became quarterback Tony Romo’s go-to option and even managed to score seven touchdowns in 2011 in just 10 games, as the hamstring injuries began to take their toll.

Coming into the league as an undrafted free agent, he’s always had the mentality to give everything — every game, every practice — his all. And regardless of his past, he’ll be fighting as hard as anybody on the field.

“I’m a competitive person, I’m laid-back but highly competitive,” Austin said. “So I’m going to go out there and try to win. If

it’s a scrappy-type practice, I’m going to get scrappy.”

It also helps that Austin has come into camp the healthiest he’s felt in a while.

“I feel good physically, which is a positive thing. I think it’s the most important thing regardless of what the actual results are for me,” Austin said. “I just want to continue to get more and more reps, more and more plays, know the of fense more and more, and just continue to work on my technique.”

Aside from hydrating as much as he can and altering his preand post-workout routine, Austin is sure he’s the same player he’s always been. And he won’t be changing anything that helped him become the 10th undrafted free agent in NFL history to ear n two 1,000-yard

receiving seasons.

“You run the play that’s called.

I’m not going to change or anything like that,” Austin said.

His fellow wide receivers are noticing the work ethic.

“Miles is the man,” Nate Burleson said. “He came out here the last couple of days and shown why he was so good in Dallas. He wants to prove that he can stay healthy and make plays.”

That means he’d be willing to play whatever role the Browns need him in, especially as the team awaits the potential suspension of wide receiver Josh Gordon.

“I felt like sometimes I was in the slot a lot more often the last couple of years in Dallas,” Austin said. “Whatever is asked of me I’m going to go out there

has denied understating the dangers of concussions, hailed the deal.

“This agreement's proactive measures will ensure studentathletes have access to high quality medical care by physicians with experience in the diagnosis, treatment and management of concussions,” NCAA's chief medical officer Brian Hainline said.

Siprut added that stricter rules and oversight should help ensure the viability of football by allaying fears of parents now inclined to not let their kids play.

“Absent these kinds of changes, the sport will die,” he said.

To keep the NCAA from having to hold unwieldy talks with multiple plaintiffs, 10 lawsuits filed nationwide were consolidated into the one case in Chicago, where the first lawsuit was filed in 2011.

The lead plaintif f is Adrian Arrington, a for mer safety at Easter n Illinois. He said he

endured five concussions while playing, some so severe he has said he couldn't recognize his parents afterward.

Another named plaintiff is former Central Arkansas wide receiver Derek K. Owens. His symptoms became so severe he dropped out of school in 2011, telling his mother: “I feel like a 22-year-old with Alzheimer's.”

Among other settlement terms, all athletes will take baseline neurological tests to start each year to help doctors determine the severity of any concussion during the season; concussion education will be mandated for coaches and athletes; and a new, independent Medical Science Committee will oversee the medical testing.

Robert Cantu, a Boston-based clinical professor of neurosurgery and a longtime critic of the NCAA, said the deal is a huge shift by the organization.

“It'll make collision sports

much safer,” said Cantu, who was one of the plaintiffs' experts.

But former UCLA linebacker Ramogi Huma said it's all for show.

“It takes some of the things many of us have been advocating for and pretends to address it,” Huma, president of the College Athletes Players Association, said.

Plaintiffs' filings say the number of athletes who may require testing to learn if they suffered long-term damage runs into the tens of thousands. They cite NCAA figures that from 2004 to 2009 alone, 29,225 athletes suffered concussions.

Internal emails unsealed in the lawsuit illustrate how pressure mounted on the NCAA over the issue.

In a Feb. 23, 2010, email, the NCAA's director of government relations, Abe Frank, wondered whether debates about new safeguards for young children playing

process,” Scott said. “This is Los Angeles. It’s still one of the best organizations in all of sports.

Still got a ton of people that would love to play for this organization, and you’ve got (former Lakers) sitting in the front row that are very adamant about that. They’re all advocates for this organization, so I don’t think it’s going to take long.”

Scott and Bryant have stayed close since they played together in Bryant’s rookie season. Scott acknowledged Bryant “has to be a little patient,” a quality that Kobe has never possessed in any measurable quantity.

Scott floated the idea that Bryant could play point guard for the Lakers on occaision, also saying his club will run an offense that blends elements of the Princeton schemes, the triangle and other sets.

“I think the first thing you’ve got to do is get them thinking like we used to think,” Scott said. “If you’re winning, it’s contagious. If you’re losing, it’s contagious. So you’ve got to change that mindset. ... When you lose games, you shouldn’t be sitting in the locker room having a good time. It should hurt.”

The Lakers finally hired a new coach almost three months after Mike D’Antoni’s resignation on April 30. General manager Mitch Kupchak opened the news conference by thanking Scott for his patience: Los Angeles first interviewed Scott two months ago, but kept him waiting through the draft and the unsuccessful free-agent signing period.

“I think it was clear, at least it was clear to us, that Byron was always our first choice,” Kupchak said.

Mike Brown and D’Antoni were respected veteran coaches with no Lakers connections, and neither lasted two full seasons.

Johnson and his fellow Lakers greats took turns savaging D’Antoni’s coaching style on social media and television broadcasts, a treatment Scott is likely to avoid.

Scott has been a head coach with New Jersey, New Orleans and Cleveland, but the Lakers have always been the ultimate for the Inglewood product who grew up sneaking into the Forum to watch Jerry West.

“This has been a dream of mine for so long,” Scott said.

“It’s a dream come true to be here today and to be introduced as the head coach of the Los Angeles Lakers. The passion and the love that I have for this organization is second to none.

Brandon McCarthy (3-0) went six innings for the Yankees, who have won all four of his starts since getting the big right-hander in a trade from Arizona on July 6.

David Robertson, the fifth New York pitcher, got his 27th save in 29 chances even after walking three and allowed two hits in the ninth. Elvis Andrus had a tworun single before Adrian Beltre’s game-ending flyball to Gardner in deep left with the bases loaded.

Mark Teixeira hit his 18th homer in his first start for New York in nine games after a back strain. He walked three times and scored three runs.

Gardner led off the game

against rookie Nick Martinez (1-7) with his 13th homer. Gardner went deep twice Monday off Yu Darvish.

Texas led 4-1 after Arencibia’s solo homer in the fifth. He had a two-run double in the third, the inning that started with Gardner’s running, sliding catch on a ball Shin Soo-Choo sliced into the leftfield corner.

New York went up 5-4 when Zolio Almonte hit an RBI single on reliever Shawn Tolleson’s first pitch after relieving Martinez.

Brendan R yan had a two-run double before Gardner’s flyball into right-center field gap.

Right fielder Alex Rios was call-

ing for the ball when he reached for it, but closed his glove too soon. The ball ricocheted off the back of his glove and then off the head of center fielder Leonys Martin, who was also in pursuit.

TRAINER’S ROOM Yankees: RHP Michael Pineda (shoulder), out since early May, threw 45 pitches in a bullpen session and is set to start an injury rehab assignment Sunday.

Infielder Kelly Johnson (strained left groin) is expected to be ready to play when eligible to come off the DL on Aug. 7.

Rangers: Nick Tepesch pulled himself out of his last start Saturday night because of left knee

(583) and was fifth in touchdown passes (29).

In 2012, he threw for 4,008 yards with 22 touchdowns and 12 interceptions to help Houston to its second straight AFC South title.

The Raiders believe he can put up those kinds of numbers again and that he can be a top 10 quarterback in the NFL. “I think he’s in a good frame of mind,” coach Dennis Allen said. “I think he’s very hungry. I think he’s excited about the new opportunity. I think anytime you go into something new there’s a little bit of, maybe it’s an increased focus, an increased intensity level, because it is new. You kind of force yourself out of your comfort zone a little bit. I think he’s done that.”

WR Miles Austin eager for fresh start with Browns BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Not too long ago, Miles Austin was on his way to becoming one of the elite wide receivers in the NFL. But nagging hamstring injuries got in the way, and the two-time Pro Bowler was released by the Dallas Cowboys after last season.

He has a fresh start with the Browns, though. And through the first four days of camp, he’s making the most of it.

“Paths happen in life, things happen. You’ve gotta overcome adversity,” Austin said. “It doesn’t matter if you stumble as long as you get back up. Until I’m 60 I’m going to be trying to continue to move in a positive direction.”

In his breakout 2009 season, Austin caught 81 passes for 1,320 yards, third-most in the

But plaintiffs blamed a tendency of some teams to hurry concussed players back into games, in part, on the NCAA's lax enforcement of the policy.

Jones’ HOF induction adds to Seattle’s big year Roswell Daily Record

RENTON, Wash. (AP) — As Walter Jones started going through names to give his induction speech at the Pro Football Hall of Fame, he constantly came back to his son Walterius.

The youngster was with him in New York during Super Bowl week when Jones found out he’d be honored in his first year of eligibility, and just the third player having spent their entire career with Seattle Seahawks to be inducted. It felt only right to have the 14-year-old give the speech.

Talk about a unique summer vacation project.

“When I asked him if he wanted to present me he was like, ‘Well, there’s nobody else that’s going to do it,”’ Jones said. “He’s been with me throughout this whole process, so he was an easy answer to present me.”

Regarded as one of the game’s best offensive tackles ever, Jones will get his gold jacket Saturday night and add to a year that has seen the Seahawks reach the pin-

nacle of the NFL. The party in New York in February didn’t stop with Jones being voted into the Hall of Fame on his first try. That was just the beginning. A day later, he was at MetLife Stadium to watch Seattle’s 43-8 rout of Denver to claim its first championship.

It was a moment Jones was hoping to experience as a player in February 2006 when Seattle reached its only other Super Bowl, losing to Pittsburgh. A championship is about the only thing missing from Jones’ extensive resume.

“When I came into the league, I wasn’t thinking about, ‘Man, I want to be in the Hall of Fame.’

As you play the game, you watch guys. You say, ‘That’s the way I want to play the game of football,”’ Jones said. “For me, it’s all about respect. You always go back to the word ‘respect.’ Even guys that don’t play the game of football - or just an average fan when they watch the game of

football, they can say, ‘OK, I respect what Walter’s doing out there.”’

Jones was deemed special when he was selected with the No. 6 overall pick of the 1997 draft coming out of Florida State.

He was a unique combination of size and power, but also speed and fluidity for a man who stood at 6-foot-5 and 325 pounds.

His offseason workouts became folklore, pushing Cadillac Escalades as part of his regimen — and usually during some sort of contract dispute. Yet he showed up for every season opener, whether he was unhappy with his contract or not.

Jones was selected to nine Pro Bowls. He was a four -time AllPro. Mike Holmgren, who coached the Seahawks from 1999-2008, once called Jones the best offensive player he has ever coached.

It’s a heady statement considering Holmgren coached Joe Montana, Brett Favre, Steve Young and Jerry Rice during his career.

Jones wanted to be like Anthony Munoz. And like Munoz before him, Jones became the standard for the next generation of offensive linemen.

“I think it’s a situation of setting the standard for how you want to play the game of football,” Jones said. “For me, I tried to do that every time I stepped on the football field. It just validates the things you did on the football field. So when people see you now, people say, ‘Oh, that’s the Hall of Famer Walter Jones.’

That’s something that makes you say I did it the right way,” Jones said. “When young kids go look at film, your name is talked about.

So I think that’s something that has changed.

“From Day 1 when I got in the league, I wanted to establish the standard that I set. I wanted to be a guy that when you talk about offensive linemen, I wanted my name to come up.”

Seattle’s coaches once put together the numbers that helped

state the dominant level at which Jones played: He blocked for more than 5,500 pass plays in his career and gave up just 23 sacks and was called for holding just nine times in 180 career games — all starts.

Jones is revered in Seattle in a way usually reserved for skill position players. It’s a statue of Jones that stands outside the Seahawks-themed bar at SeattleTacoma International Airport. His No. 71 was retired the day he retired, while Steve Largent (No. 80) and Cortez Kennedy (No. 96) had to wait for their entry to Canton before their numbers were raised.

“Getting a gold jacket and to be a part of that team, man, it’s just amazing,” Jones said. “Then to be a part of Seattle, it’s just amazing to represent the city of Seattle, man. It’s just amazing. I started there and I ended there. It’s a lot of stuff that goes on.”

ATLANTA (AP) — Claude Humphrey wishes he could have made the Pro Football Hall of Fame “a long time ago where I could have actually enjoyed it more.”

Even so, there’s a bonus for Humphrey, the former standout defensive end for the Atlanta Falcons and Philadelphia Eagles.

Now that he’s 70, it’s the perfect time for Humphrey’s 12-year-old grandson to savor the honor with him.

Humphrey’s daughter, Cheyenne Humphrey-Robinson, will make the introductory speech at the ceremony. Sitting in the audience will be her son, Archie Robinson Jr. “I couldn’t go without my wingman,” Humphrey said.

“It’s a legacy for my only grandson. He gets a chance to learn a little something about his granddad. It’s something I don’t have to tell him. Other people can tell him. He won’t think I’m telling him a lie.”

The young Robinson will learn Humphrey was one of the game’s most feared pass rushers during a career that began in 1968 and spanned three decades, including the 1979-81 seasons in Philadelphia.

Humphrey is credited with 94 1/2 sacks for a loss of 757 yards for the Falcons from 1968-78.

Each total is a team record, but because sacks weren’t officially recorded until 1982, Humphrey is convinced the numbers should be higher.

“Before they started keeping records of sacks, man, I was getting sacks left and right,” he said.

“That statistic they have has got to be wrong. ... The thing about me, I didn’t care so much about getting the sack. A sack was just a tackle back then. Tackling the quarterback or tackling the ballcarrier on a running play was all the same.”

Humphrey is only the second player drafted by the Falcons to make the Hall, following Deion

Sanders.

“Having Claude in is great because he represents the old guys,” said longtime Falcons linebacker Greg Brezina, who was a rookie with Humphrey in 1968.

“He was a great athlete. One of the best things about him was his winning attitude. He was a team player and, of course, he’s probably one of the best defensive ends that there was out there. It’s just a shame he played so long with a team that didn’t win much. He didn’t get the recognition.”

By the Falcons’ count, Humphrey set a career high with 15 sacks in 1976. STATS doesn’t list his sacks because the records are incomplete.

That’s OK with Humphrey, who wants to be remembered as more than a sacks specialist.

“The thing about my career is I just didn’t concentrate on sacking the quarterback,” Humphrey said. “I concentrated on being the total football player. Like batting the balls. Now it’s considered a

‘hurry,’ but back then it was just a batted ball. I would always be in competition with the defensive backs to see if I could get as many batted balls as they got.”

Falcons coach Mike Smith remembers Humphrey as “an allaround defensive end who could single-handedly wreck the game.”

“I remember Claude really before they had pass-rush specialists and all that,” Smith said, adding Humphrey posted two five-sack games with Atlanta.

“It speaks volumes of what kind of player he is,” Smith said.

Humphrey temporarily retired after four games in 1978 — missing his only chance at the playoffs with Atlanta. He returned with the Eagles and finally reached the Super Bowl in the 1980 season, when he had 14 1/2 sacks.

The Eagles lost to the Raiders in Super Bowl XV, but at least Humphrey had his long-awaited chance to play in the biggest game after so many losing sea-

sons in Atlanta.

“It was the most exciting thing that could have ever happened to me,” he said. “I went to Philadelphia to try to get on a winning team and experience what I experienced in college at Tennessee State. We were national champions two years in a row.

“In Atlanta, I never got used to losing. I just never got used to it.

It made me play harder. I used to say to myself, well if we lose the game, the guy who lined up in front of me won’t have anything to be excited about. When he looks at the film, he’s not going to like what he sees of himself. I’m going to go out there and try to wear him down. That was the only thing that kept me motivated.”

Now, after his long wait, Humphrey and his wingman are headed to Canton.

“I’m not glad that it took so long,” he said, “but I’m glad I got in when I can smell the flowers.”

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Brandon Lloyd returned to the San Francisco 49ers to finish what he started.

After taking a year of f from football, Lloyd said he came back to the team that drafted him in the fourth round in 2003 because nobody else could offer what he wanted: a chance at redemption and a Super Bowl title.

“When I was younger, I was in love with the winning attitude and culture that the team had.

And when I was finally able to play for the team, no one had that,” said Lloyd, whose first stint with the 49ers was from 2003-05.

“Now the team does have that, and San Francisco has always held a special place in my heart.

And so I didn’t explore any other options. I wanted to return to San

Francisco and maybe bring a certain amount of closure to my career.”

Lloyd has been a major addition through the first week of training camp, showing of f a smooth route-running ability that teammates call the best among the receivers. He has mostly shied away from talking about his comeback this summer, saying his focus is on making the team — and it still is.

But Lloyd finally began to open up about his journey back to the NFL. He said he wants to help mentor the team’s young receivers and cornerbacks while showing he still has what it takes to be an elite wide receiver at age 33.

He caught 105 passes for 1,510 yards and 13 touchdowns in his

first three years in the league with San Francisco. That included leading the team with 48 receptions, 733 yards receiving and five TD catches in 2005.

Lloyd then played two seasons with Washington and one in Chicago before stops with Denver, St. Louis and New England. He was cut by the Patriots in March 2013 and didn’t join any other team despite catching 74 passes for 911 yards and four touchdowns in 2012.

Lloyd signed a one-year contract with San Francisco in April to end his sabbatical, which included starring in a direct-toDVD zombie movie titled “After Effect.” Back on the field for the 49ers, he is learning an offense all over again.

Lloyd said his goals during

training are the same as they’ve always been: not to let the playbook defeat him, give maximum effort every time and make the plays when called upon.

“I put the same amount of pressure on myself as I did when I was younger,” he said.

Teammates on both sides of the ball credit Lloyd’s precise routes more than anything.

Quarterback Colin Kaepernick said he can count on Lloyd to create separation — even when it looks like he won’t — and be where he’s supposed to be on time.

“He has pretty easy body language to read,” Kaepernick said.

“And for the most part, he’s open by a step or two. So that makes it a lot easier.”

Lloyd said his skills will just

add to the “diversity” the 49ers have at receiver with Michael Crabtree, Anquan Boldin and fellow of fseason addition Stevie Johnson. Toss tight end Vernon Davis into the mix, and San Francisco has five players with 1,000-yard receiving seasons.

Even still, rookie cornerback Dontae Johnson said Lloyd is the hardest player to cover on the 49ers. He said Lloyd never tips his route in practice, which has helped him learn more about his own position.

“I haven’t played in the league,” Johnson said, “but I can promise you he’s probably the best in the league at doing that.”

Commonwealth suspends Nigerian player for first time for doping GLASGOW, Scotland (AP) — In the first doping scandal of the Commonwealth Games, a 16-yearold female Nigerian weightlifter was provisionally suspended Tuesday after testing positive for banned substances.

Chika Amalaha tested positive for the diuretic amiloride and masking agent hydrochlorothiazide — both banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency — after winning the 53kilogram weight class last Friday, games officials said.

She’s the first athlete to test positive during the games, which opened last Wednesday night.

Amalaha asked for the backup “B” sample to be tested, which will happen in London on Wednesday.

If that sample also comes back positive, she will be stripped of her medal.

“It sends a strong message to anybody in any sport that if you go down the path of doping, any

substance to enhance performance, they will be caught,” Commonwealth Games Federation chief executive Mike Hooper said.

It’s the second Commonwealth Games in a row that Nigeria has been in the doping spotlight.

Four years ago in New Delhi, three of the four doping cases involved Nigerian runners, including women’s 100-meter gold medalist Osayomi Oludamola.

Meanwhile, the king of the track met with British royalty in the athletes’ village.

Prince William and his brother, Prince Harry, met Jamaica’s Usain Bolt, the multiple Olympic sprint champion and world record-holder over 100 and 200 meters.

Harry posed for a photo with Bolt, who is running in the 4x100 relay this week. William was reported to have jokingly said to Bolt as he approached

him: “What’s all the fuss about?”

Elsewhere at the games on Tuesday: CANADIANS, KIWIS 1-2: Catharine Pendrel of Canada, the 2011 mountain bike cross-country world champion who finished ninth at the 2012 London Olympics, won gold in the women’s crosscountry race at the Cathkin Braes Country Park course in Glasgow.

Her Canadian teammate Emily Batty took the silver, with Rebecca Anderson of Australia earning the bronze. “We trained well as a team,” Pendrel said. “I knew from training and the nationals that Emily was on fire, so I’m proud she got silver.” In the men’s race, New Zealanders were 1-2, with Anton Cooper beating Samuel Gaze by just three seconds for gold. Australian Daniel McDonnell took the bronze.

Romo to skip full-time pad session for first time at camp OXNARD, Calif. (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys are taking it easy with Tony Romo’s back.

Romo was expected to sit out a competitive practice for the first time at training camp Tuesday, although coach Jason Garrett said it wasn’t because of any setbacks from surgery for a herniated disk in late December.

Garrett says the Cowboys are making daily decisions on workload, and Romo is in on them as well.

Executive vice president Stephen Jones said it was the 34-year-old quarterback’s idea to skip Friday’s full practice, which was lighter work without pads.

Romo did all the competitive work in the first two practices with pads Saturday and Sunday. The team was off Monday, and Romo was part of the morning walkthrough session earlier Tuesday.

“There’s an old adage in football, a day off can be really valuable, two days off can be life changing,” Garrett said. “So when you get in this kind of a situation, we had yesterday off, got some good work this morning in the walkthrough, some mental work of some of the different situations we’re working on.”

Romo injured his back against Washington last season but stayed in and threw a game-winning touchdown pass.

He had surgery two days before the Cowboys lost to Philadelphia with Kyle Orton at quarterback in a season-ending loss that kept Dallas out of the playoffs.

After being held out of competitive situations throughout the offseason, Romo was declared ready for camp. But the Cowboys have been cautious by limiting his throws. Tuesday’s break is the most significant cutback so far.

“The biggest thing we talked to Tony about and really all of our players about, is honest feedback,” Garrett said. “We recognize that you’re a tough player. I saw what you did against the Redskins last year. You just got to tell us how you’re doing, how it’s going and make sure we handle it the right way each and every day.”

Garrett said the feedback from Romo has been “good.”

“But we just have to monitor him,” the coach said. “We’ve just got to make sure we don’t overdo the reps ... just be mindful of where he is each and every day.”

The surgery in December was the second procedure on Romo’s back in eight months. He had a cyst removed before the start of offseason practices last year and didn’t do any significant work until training camp.

From Simple to Ornate and Beyond

Architecture Steps in Time Throughout the years, architecture has moved back and forth between classical styles with simple, clean lines and styles with a lot of ornament and design, such as the Gothic.

The Mini Page talked with an architectural historian at the Savannah (Georgia) College of Art and Design to learn about architecture ideas from the 1400s through today.

Around the 1720s and 1730s, architects grew more playful with the Rococo (ruh-KOE-koe) style.

The insides and outsides of buildings overflowed with ornaments and decorations. The curvy lines of the Baroque grew even curvier.

Rooms were filled with mirrors to make them feel more magical.

Scrollwork, artwork and statues decorated buildings.

During this time in Europe, wealthy people and royalty became even wealthier, while common people became poorer. The wealthy demanded more and more decorative rooms, furniture and fashion.

Moving Into the Modern Age Return to Classical Angered at the huge differences between wealthy, powerful people and everyone else in the 1700s, European and American citizens rebelled. American Colonists and the French overthrew their governments.

Architectural styles reflected these revolutions. In the mid-1700s and early 1800s, styles switched back to simpler classical lines. People thought a lot of ornamentation was tasteless.

They rebelled against excess.

Around this time, Greece again became an independent country.

Greece became a cool place to visit.

Westerners could now view these classical buildings for themselves.

They wanted to imitate those styles.

This return to the classical took several forms. In America, for example, the Neoclassical style offered pure, clean, regular forms with classical elements. In the Greek Revival style, architects designed buildings to look like Greek temples.

A party of styles

Into the 20th century

In the 1800s, technological advances such as steam power and photography allowed people to see more of the world. People imitated architectural styles from many time periods and countries.

Different styles were sometimes even mixed into one building. This is called Eclecticism (eh-KLEK-ti-sizuhm). When something is eclectic, it means it is made up of many different types of things.

In the early 1900s, Art Nouveau (new-VOE), or “new art,� brought back curvy and ornamental designs, but with a modern twist. photo by Henry Townsend

The Tempietto is a Renaissancestyle chapel at a church in Rome.

Can you spot the classical Roman style elements?

St. Charles Church in Vienna, Austria, was built in the Baroque style.

By the 1600s, architects were making classical forms more lively and decorative. They built with large curves and dramatic, ornamental columns. This period is known as the Baroque (buh-ROKE).

Furniture and art were also designed with curvier lines and decorations. Artists began creating sculptures as parts of the fronts and rooftops of buildings.

After centuries of ornamental Gothic designs, architects were eager to bring back the clean lines of classical Rome.

In the 1400s, they began building with Roman-style columns, domes and arches in the Renaissance style. “Renaissance� (REN-uh-zahns) means “rebirth.� Other arts had a rebirth during this time as well.

Leading Into the 21st Century Skyscrapers

Postmodernism

The Arts and Crafts movement also took hold in the early 1900s. It valued the use of natural materials, especially in homes. Nature themes inside the buildings were popular.

When technology such as elevators and steel frames were invented, it became possible to build a whole new type of building, the skyscraper.

Before the late 1800s, there were few buildings taller than six stories.

For many years, there were few skyscrapers outside of America.

Postmodern, or “after modern,� buildings sprang up around the 1960s. Architects honored history by playfully attaching classical bits to the fronts of buildings. They turned away from the modern glass box idea.

The Gilbert House in Los Angeles is an example of Arts and Crafts architecture.

DEAR ABBY: My husband’s family are hypocrites! They talk about everyone and their problems, yet when something arises in their family, they want it kept hush-hush.

My sister-in-law, “Gina,” had a baby recently. Her husband, “Allan,” was suspicious because their sexual relations had stopped years ago. He did a store-bought DNA test (twice) and realized the baby was not his. When he confronted her, she wouldn’t tell him who the father is, but said she had discussed the pregnancy with the father,

and they had decided it would be best for her to raise the baby as her husband’s.

Well, Allan and Gina are now being divorced, and he’s having his name removed from the baby’s birth certificate. Of course, everyone but me wants this to stay quiet. I want the wife of the man to know, and I want ALL the people my in-laws trash all the time to know!

Perhaps this seems mean, but DANG IT, why shouldn’t everyone know that Gina isn’t Miss Perfect? What do you think?

Argentina, US bondholders meet as deadline looms Roswell Daily Record

NEW YORK (AP) — Argentina’s economy minister emerged from daylong negotiations aimed at preventing a default Tuesday to say both sides had finally spoken for the first time, a development that raised hopes that a deal might be reached to avert a financial crisis.

Minister Axel Kicillof made the revelation shortly before midnight as he left talks he had joined several hours earlier.

Shortly afterward, courtappointed mediator Daniel A. Pollack issued a statement saying Kicillof had led a delegation that met lawyers for U.S. bondholders trying to collect about $1.5 billion they are owed

by Argentina.

He said the two sides met several hours in his office and in his presence.

“These were the first face-to-face talks between the parties. There was a frank exchange of views and concerns. The issues that divide the parties remain unresolved,” he said.

Although Kicillof said the negotiations would resume Wednesday, Pollack men-

Argentina's economy minister, Axel Kicillof, speaks to the media after leaving negotiations aimed at avoiding his country's second default in 13 years, Tuesday, in New York.

tioned the deadline day with more caution.

“Whether and when the parties will meet tomorrow (July 30) remains to be determined overnight,” he said in the statement issued just before midnight.

Argentina faces a deadline midnight Wednesday

when it must either meet its bond obligations or plunge into a default for the second time in 13 years.

A federal judge last week had ordered around-theclock negotiations, but sporadic talks did not seem to take on a sense of urgency until a team of negotiators

agreeing to provide Argentina with debt relief.

Argentina has labeled the U.S. funds “vultures” for picking up bonds on the cheap. The government has said paying the U.S. funds would likely trigger lawsuits from other bondholders demanding payment on similar terms. Argentina says that would cost more than $20 billion.

Late Tuesday, lawyers for a group of London-based who bondholders exchanged their bonds in the last decade said the financial firms that hold the bonds might be willing to drop a clause in their contracts that allows them to match deals reached with other bondholders.

The lawyers said the stance by the bondholders was a “clear signal that the republic may be able to obtain a waiver ... opening up a path to settlement.”

At a court hearing last week, attorney Jonathan Blackman told the judge that the clause was a “huge issue” that made a settlement by the end of the month impossible without some easement of his orders.

ordered Argentina to pay the U.S. bondholders if the South American nation also pays the other 92 percent of bondholders who swapped their bonds for less valuable ones in the last decade.

Kicillof’s entry into the talks came after the earlier arrival of Argentina’s Finance Secretary Pablo Lopez, treasury of ficial Javier Pargament and two lawyers who said nothing as they entered Pollack’s building.

Argentina has blamed the judge for the crisis, saying his orders are forcing it into insolvency.

Argentina last went into default in 2001.

The judge has twice rejected Argentina’s request to suspend the effect of his orders to give Argentina more time to negotiate a settlement with all bondholders.

President Cristina Fernandez has long refused to negotiate with the U.S. hedge funds, led by New York billionaire Paul Singer’s NML Capital Ltd., which spent more than a decade litigating for payment in full rather than

from Argentina showed up Tuesday morning.

Kicillof arrived seven hours later to meet with lawyers for U.S. hedge funds that bought Argentina’s bonds on the cheap and are now demanding payment.

As Fed meets, key issues likely to stay unanswered WASHINGTON (AP) — The Federal Reserve will likely end a policy meeting Wednesday with a lot of questions unanswered: When will it start tightening its benchmark short-term interest rate to make sure future inflation remains under control? How will it do so? And when will the Fed start reducing its enormous investment holdings — a move that will put upward pressure on interest rates?

Chair Janet Yellen gave few hints about the answers to such issues when she testified to Congress this month. And most analysts don’t think the central bank will fill in any of the blanks when it ends a twoday meeting with a brief policy statement. There will be no Yellen news conference this time.

make a sixth $10 billion cut in its monthly bond purchases, which have been aimed at keeping long-term rates low.

A key reason is that the economy needs less help now. Hiring is solid, and, at 6.1 percent, the unemployment rate is on the cusp of a historically normal range. Manufacturing is strengthening. Consumers are voicing renewed confidence.

Still, the economy isn’t back to full health.

Workers’ pay remains flat.

Turmoil overseas, from Ukraine to the Middle East, poses a potential threat. And as Yellen noted in her congressional appearance, long-term unemployment remains high and wage growth weak.

For that reason, the Fed is expected to reaffirm its plan to leave its key short-term rate at a record low near zero “for a considerable time” after it ends

its bond purchases.

“There are so many uncertainties, both economic and political, that the Fed wants to leave plenty of wiggle room,” said Sung Won Sohn, an economics professor at California State University, Channel Islands.

The Fed will almost surely announce that it’s reducing its monthly bond purchases from $35 billion to $25 billion. When the Fed started cutting the purchases in December, they stood at $85 billion a month.

The Fed intends to end its new purchases by October. By then, its investment portfolio will be nearing $4.5 trillion — five times its size before the financial crisis erupted in September 2008.

After the crisis struck, the Fed embarked on bond purchases to try to drive down long-term rates and help the

economy recover from the Great Recession. Even after its new bond purchases end, the Fed has said it will maintain its existing holdings, which means it will continue to put downward pressure on rates.

The Fed has kept its target for short-term rates near zero since December 2008. Most economists think it will start raising rates by mid-2015, though some caution that the Fed could do so sooner if the economy keeps generating jobs at a robust pace. There have been five straight months of 200,000-plus job growth.

Mark Zandi, chief economist at Moody’s Analytics, said he thinks chronically lagging pay growth, in particular, will stop the Fed from raising rates before mid-2015.

Besides discussing shortterm rates, Fed officials this week are likely debating how to

unwind their investment holdings. They face a delicate task in shrinking the portfolio to more nor mal levels without destabilizing markets. The Fed’s bond purchases allowed it to inject money into the financial system, which wound up as reserves held by banks and helped keep loan rates low.

To reverse that process and raise borrowing rates, the Fed is considering a variety of tools.

One would be to increase the interest it pays banks on excess reserves they keep at the Fed. David Jones, author of a new book on the central bank’s 100 year history, said any new exit details might not be revealed until the Fed releases the minutes of this week’s meeting in three weeks. Those minutes, Jones said, “may be the most interesting thing to come out of the meeting.”
