It was 66 years ago on a day not unlike today that World War II came to an end. To commemorate the announcement of the war’s end on Aug. 14, 1945, as well as those who served during the war, local World War II vets and their loved ones gathered for a Spirit of ’45 Day ceremony at Peachtree Village, Saturday.

Congress established the Spirit of ’45 Day last year. Mayor Del Jurney, Rep. Steve Pearce, R-N.M., Secretary of Veterans Affairs of New Mexico Timothy Hale, and musician Tom Blake showed their spirit and support while honoring local veterans.

“I want you to know how honored I am to be your mayor,” said Jur ney.

“We’re a blessed community. ... We’re blessed by

Pearce, a Vietnam veteran, said he often speaks to veterans and that many would rather not discuss what they went through during war. He said it is necessary for veterans to share their stories and,

most important, that their accounts be remembered.

“We can never forget the medals in the boxes that represent ... sacrifice beyond our comprehension,” Pearce said. “We are the beneficiaries ... of that nobleness of the human spirit called service.”

Pearce and Jurney gave an honorable mention to five World War II veterans: Fred T. Bartlett, who served during the Battle of the Bulge and was awarded, along with his division, the Presidential Citation; James Goss, who also fought during the Battle of the Bulge; Rudy Cum-

mins, a fighter pilot who is the recipient of the Purple Heart; Lloyd Soleman, who flew 23 missions into Ger many; and John Anderson, whose twin brother died when they were both stationed at Pearl Harbor during the Dec. 7, 1941, attack.

Goss said the special honor took him by surprise.

“I was sandbagged,” he said. “It’s kind of embarrassing. A lot of guys did a lot more than I did.”

Goss said he was on his way to the South Pacific

Only one of 20 schools in the Roswell district made its adequate yearly progress mark in 2011, but a few just barely missed the mark, the district superintendent said in a recent interview.

Goddard High School, which met AYP last year, fell short in making its reading rating by just three students, while reaching its targets in math. If a school doesn’t meet AYP in both reading and math, the school does not make AYP. Berrendo Middle is another school that

missed making AYP by a hair. Like Goddard, it met its math rating, but not its reading rating, and by just a couple of students, Roswell Independent School District Superintendent Michael Gottlieb said.

See SPIRIT, Page A3

Four other schools in the district made their math ratings (Missouri Avenue Elementary, Pecos Elementary, Sidney Gutierrez Middle Charter School and Washington Avenue Elementary), but only one school made its reading rating, Sidney Gutierrez, making it the only school in the Roswell Independent School District that made AYP. AYP represents the annual academic targets in reading and math that the state, school districts and schools must reach to be considered on track with the federally mandated goal of

SENM BBBS to undergo structural changes EMILY RUSSO MILLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southeastern New Mexico is in the process of merging managerial staff with its chapter in northern New Mexico to create a new agency to serve both regions, officials say.

No paperwork has been signed yet, Adriann Ragsdale, president of the regional board of directors for the southeast chapter, said on Friday, but the board of directors

expects to hold a vote on the matter in the near future.

“We know our program works, and I believe in our mission 100 percent,” Ragsdale said. “We just want to make it better, and we feel that this is the best way to combine all of our assets and resources to provide more services for our kids.”

Bachmann wins Iowa straw poll Medical examiner rules AMES, Iowa (AP) — Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann won a test vote of Iowans on Saturday, a show of strength five months before the state’s caucuses kick off the GOP presidential nominating season.

Overall, 86 of 89 school districts in the state did not make AYP in 2011, nor did 720 out of 831 schools in New Mexico, according to New Mexico Public Education Department data.

“It was disappointing, but we knew it was coming,” he said.

One reason this year was so dif ficult, he said, is because standards, or the bars for meeting proficiency, drastically increase each year as the 100 percent proficiency goal by 2014 deadline closes in.

math, and 64 percent in reading, in order to make AYP. This year, 66 percent of all students had to be proficient in math and 75 percent of all students had to be proficient in reading to make AYP. That’s a 14 percent jump in math proficiency and 11 percent jump in reading proficiency in just one school year’s time, PED spokesman Larry Behrens said in a recent interview.

New Mexico also likely had more schools and school districts making AYP in previous years because the goals for proficiency were lower. In 2004-2005, the first year the PED began testing for AYP, only 38.3 percent of all students

had to be proficient in math and just 33.7 percent in reading in order to make AYP. Another perceived flaw in testing for AYP, Gottlieb pointed out, is there are too many things that students are expected to know in order to be called proficient. In mathematics alone, there are about 98 state standards for numbers and operation, algebra, geometry, measurement and data analysis and probability, and some 200 performance standards below that, that must be met in order to be deemed proficient.

“You can’t say everything is essential,” Gottlieb said.

“What you have to say is

dren qualify for service and how local donations are used.”

Retired Marine Corps Col. Ronald McKay, who is af filiated with the Save Our Magic campaign, says he worries that future donations to BBBS will only benefit the northern chapter instead of the chapter in southeastern New Mexico.

“It’s needed in the southeast part of the state, not in Santa Fe,” he said in an interview Friday.

McKay, a longtime donor to BBBS and a former Big Brother mentor, believes that the merger will jeopardize the children

enrolled in the program, he wrote in a recent letter to the Daily Record.

“I am dismayed by the lack of understanding and concern exhibited by this small group of board members that are jeopardizing the vulnerable children and selfless volunteers in our community as well as the dedicated staff that has worked so hard to turn the organization and its critical programs around,” his letter read.

Ragsdale denies that the merger would affect the children in the program and the staffers who hold jobs at the southeast chapter. No one will lose their job, she said.

Rather, Saturday’s outcome suggests that Bachmann has a certain level of support and, perhaps even more important, the strongest get-out-the-vote operation and widest volunteer base in a state whose caucuses require those elements.

Texas Rep. Ron Paul finished second, ahead of for mer Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty in third.

day, the epicenter of the presidential contest was in this Midwestern town.

In speeches throughout the day, candidates scouted for support by assailing Obama and offering themselves as the answer to an America plagued by high unemployment, rising debt and stock market swings.

Gottlieb also noted that the test used to determine AYP results, the New Mexico Standards Based Assesment, has been criticized as one of the hardest in the country. The assesment tests vary from state to state.

Gottlieb also added that a system is needed to be able to show the public that students are learning in school, but that it’s a nearly impossible task to measure real learning and real retainment.

“Does one test give you a picture for the whole year?” he asked. “Well, we all

know that that's not possible, but the public needs something to say whether its working or not.”

He says he hopes Education Secretary-designate Hanna Skandera’s plan to submit a waiver in the fall to the U.S. Department of Education to replace the No Child Left Behind accountability rankings with New Mexico’s own A through F grading system will offer a better alternative.

“Secretary Skandera has been working real hard on this,” he said. “She brings a whole new light to New Mexico on that, and it will just be a new system for all of us. And I hope a good system.” emiller@roswell-record.com

“I don’t want the perception to be in the community that we’re leaving, because we’re not leaving,” she said, emphasizing that the program will still serve children in Chaves and its surrounding counties.

“We’re going to entrust our management to a very stable, well run organization, and we’re going to continue to grow and build our program.”

She added that donations to the southeast part of the state would stay there, and they would likely be able to serve more kids if they were a part of a larger agency.

“I think this is a very positive move,” she said.

“We haven’t been able to serve as many kids as we would like to and by combining our resources with a larger agency, we will be able to serve more kids.

This is only going to help our agency and help our kids in our community by being able to better serve them.”

The board of directors voted in the spring to explore the option of merging managerial staff with the northern New Mexico BBBS. Ragsdale says she would like the move to become official soon, and effective by Jan. 1, 2012.

looks to infringe on her base of tea party and evangelical support. She invoked God and faith as she stressed what she called her conservative values.

Pawlenty also had a lot on the line. He’s ranked low in polls and was looking to prove he was still a viable candidate. He argued that he was the candidate of results, given his record as Minnesota governor. Trying to control expectations, he had predicted the poll would show his campaign’s momentum. He did not promise his supporters a win.

Paul, with a following among libertarian-leaning voters, wanted a surprise showing that might convince Republicans he was more mainstream than not in his second shot at

the GOP nomination. ” For mer Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, businessman Her man Cain and for mer U.S. House Speaker Newt Gingrich of Georgia also were on the ballot. So were GOP frontrunner Mitt Romney and for mer Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman, though they weren’t competing in the contest.

Perry and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, who made a splash Friday when she visited the state fair, weren’t listed. But their backers planned write-in campaigns that could outpace candidates who have spent months trying to line up supporters to participate.

The straw poll amounts to a popularity contest and a test of organizational strength.

RPD’s Solis: Not more crime JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

Roswell Police Chief Alfonso Solis wants to assure the citizens of Roswell that the city is not experiencing an increase in crime. “I’ve been hearing from people, ‘What about this new crime wave?’ We don’t have a crime wave.”

Solis explained. “This is all a part of our new policy of openness with the media. The media then reports the crimes to the public.”

He referred back to the statements he made at the time he took over the office of chief that he wanted to involve the public. He said then “You are our eyes and our ears.”

Solis pointed to the success of Roswell’s Most Wanted. “I’d like to thank

the Roswell Daily Record and the crime writer who started it. I also want to thank the public for their response. Of 23 people listed in Roswell’s Most Wanted, only two remain at large.”

He also expressed his commendations for groups Richard Lucero and Steve Wolfe of Neighborhood Watch, Crime Stoppers and the Roswell Safe Coalition.

He encouraged more people to become involved.

“We can’t do this job without the help of the public,” said Solis.

The chief views cooperation as the key to fighting crime. “We just had a joint meeting with the U.S. Attorney’s office, the ATF (Alcohol Tobacco and Firear ms), DEA (Drug Enforcement Agency), the FBI, U.S. Marshalls, federal

probation, and the New Mexico State Police.”

The federal government is going to lower the threshold on crimes that come under federal jurisdiction. “The criminals know when it becomes a federal crime, that means hard time.”

Solis has been pleased with the response from local civic and religious groups. “That gets back to we need the help of the public. We cannot do it without you.”

He said law enforcement requires both education in keeping the public informed and prevention.

Robbery suspects turn themselves in Tiffany Green, 21, and Rosalinda Herrera, 24, who were suspected of the armed robbery staged at the Valero station, 3300 N. Main St., on June 6, tur ned themselves in to the Roswell Police Department, Thursday.

“Their lawyers called to make arrangements the day after the information appeared in the media,” said Public Information Officer Travis Holley.

The robbery happened at 10:30 p.m. at the Valero store where Green worked as a clerk. She reported to the police that she was robbed at gunpoint and struck on the back of the head by one of the two male suspects.

Detectives, viewing the video footage, felt that

many things about Green's testimony did not add up.

Eventually, Green implicated Nina, or Rosalinda, Herrera as the person who decided to stage the robbery.

A warrant has been issued for the arrest of Dominic Larez, 17, for the August 7 shooting of Arthur Baca, 23. The incident occurred in the 300 block of East Summit Street. Baca was flown to Lubbock for treatment of severe injuries that resulted from the shooting.

Larez is Baca’s cousin and a resident of San Antonio, Texas. Larez is described as 5 feet, 8 inches tall, 160 pounds,

with black hair and brown eyes.

People who have information on Larez’s whereabouts are urged to call Crime Stoppers at 1-888594 TIPS (8477). Callers remain anonymous and may be eligible for a reward.

Roswell will host its first medical conference on Sept. 9. Conference organizer Barbara Gomez of Frontier Medical said she expects around 100 medical personnel to attend.

She said that the idea for the conference came from requests she received from nursing staff at Frontier Medical to put on an education program that would provide them with continuing education units.

“I decided to do one for both doctors and nurses,” said Gomez. “I wanted to make it top notch. You have only one chance to make a good first impression, said.”

Since that time, the units have also been approved for respiratory therapists.

Thus, the conference will provide the continuing education required to maintain licensure for doctors, nurses and for respiratory therapists.

The conference will be presented by Eastern New Mexico Medical Center and Frontier Medical, with additional sponsorship provided by the Chamber of Com-

merce, Chaves County Medical Society, Roswell Regional Hospital and Primm Drug Store.

“We’ve gotten great support from the community and great speakers, top-ofthe-line-speakers.”

The keynote speaker is Dr. Barry Ramo, cardiologist for New Mexico Heart Institute and a professor at University of New Mexico and Duke University. Ramo will talk about the cardiac disease and the elderly.

Stephen Beeson, a member of the Studer Group of San Diego, Calif., will discuss the changes in medicine, which includes client or patient expectations and the best behaviors to deal with patients in order to improve trust, to ensure compliance and win loyalty.

Miranda Felde, assistant vice president of The Doctors Company, Napa, Calif., will speak on “Critical Hand-off,” which refers to communications required when a doctor sends a patient to another doctor or provides orders to nurses.

The accuracy and clarity of information given during hand-of f is essential to patient care.

Luis Padilla-Paz, M.D., of

Lovelace Health Systems and a specialist in OB/GYN, will discuss surgical robotics.

Deborah Caswell, of St. Vincent’s Hospital in New Mexico, and local authority Dova Callihan, will cover advances in wound care.

Larry Loring, of the New Mexico Board of Pharmacology, will provide education that is of interest for both health care and law enforcement professionals about the abuse of prescription drugs.

Barry Tong, a genetics counselor and specialist from Houston, will discuss cancer, genetics and genetics in risk assessment for cancer patients.

Easter n New Mexico Medical Center and Roswell Regional Hospital will open their doors for a tour on Sept. 10. Pharmaceutical companies will be among the vendors, and Pecos Valley Winery will hold a wine and cheese party the evening of Sept. 9.

Japanese surrender freed Bataan vets A4 Sunday, August 14, 2011

SANTA FE — Recent discussion of a Manhattan Project National Park and the use of atomic bombs on Japan make recognition of Japan’s surrender 66 years ago seem appropriate.

Japan announced its surrender to the Allied Powers on Aug. 15, 1945, thus ending World War II — except for the paperwork. This sometimes is called VJ Day but President Harry Truman decreed that Sept. 2, the official document signing, would be observed.

In 1945, winning the war was cause for great celebrations in every city, town and village throughout the nation. The same was true in all the allied nations.

Next to the flag-raising on Iwo Jima, the most famous picture in the world may be of a sailor kissing a nurse on Times Square during New York City’s celebration on Aug. 14.

Confused about the dates? Was it Aug. 14 or 15? It was Aug. 15 in Japan but Aug. 14 in the United

States. There’s that messy thing about the International Dateline between us.

The event isn’t celebrated anymore. Neither is the date of the German surrender. We don’t like to rub the nose of two present allies in the dirt on an annual basis.

At high noon on Aug. 15, Japan announced its acceptance of the Potsdam Agreement demanding complete surrender. Official confirmation was announced by President Harry Truman at 6:10 p.m. that same day, which was Aug. 14 here.

I remember the day well. I was

Roswell Daily Record

a 7-year -old, staying with my grandparents, on Melendres Street, in Las Cruces. At about 4:30 p.m., my grandmother and I heard many sirens and car horns.

She said she had been hearing on the radio all day that the war might end soon.

We sat on the front steps to hear all the celebrating around town. I knew it meant that the fathers of some of my friends would be returning to Deming from Japanese prison camps. It was a joyous occasion.

What I didn’t know was that boys who had just graduated from high school had been drafted and would soon be on their way to the Pacific to prepare for an invasion of Japan.

They had great reason to celebrate. U.S. military leaders estimated that we and our allies might lose as many as a million troops during the invasion. Japan would suffer even greater losses because of the number of civilians

who would be killed.

We learned later that Japanese military leaders were trying to recruit a million kamikaze fighters to give their lives in suicide missions to repel our attack.

Another reason we don’t commemorate the day when our last worldwide war ended is because of another commemoration that occurred last week and has occurred every year for a great many years.

Our decision to use the bombs was controversial. How could we have done such a horrible thing?

The bombs killed no more people than the saturation bombings of Tokyo and other Japanese cities we were conducting from Tinian Island every night.

But these bombs were different.

They were bigger and they released radiation that brought disfigurement and death to many more people.

They were scary enough that even though many other countries

now have nuclear arsenals, the weapon hasn’t been used again in over 60 years of international strife.

But in 1945, we were aware that both Germany and Japan were working on nuclear devices.

Germany didn’t get its first bomb finished by the time it surrendered.

But a few days before, a German submarine slipped into the North Sea and out into the Atlantic, headed for Japan with all the makings Germany had assembled up to that point.

Fortunately the U.S. Navy intercepted the sub early in its voyage and diverted its cargo to the American nuclear program. But Japan was still in the war and with a little more time, it might have its weapon ready to use against us.

The politics of fear

It’s a terrible thing to live in fear. Unfortunately, that’s exactly the case for many Americans when it comes to the current economic stability of this nation.

We’re not financial experts, but even we know there are some very tough times on the horizon in regards to federal spending.

What’s worse is that the people charged with leading our country are apparently more interested in using the looming catastrophe for political gain than in trying to work toward a solution.

Everyone has seen the numbers countless times already, but let’s review a few of them again. The current national debt stands at about $14.6 trillion. Yes, it has already gone up about $300 billion just since the increase in the debt ceiling was approved on Aug. 2.

Coincidently, $14.6 trillion also happens to be the estimated gross domestic product of the United States for 2010.

The Treasury Department said Wednesday that the deficit through July totaled $1.1 trillion. In the course of seven months the government had to borrow that much more to meet its obligations. During that period the interest on the debt amounted to $213 billion.

If you want to see something really frightening, go to usdebtclock.org and watch the increase in real time. Realizing that numbers like “billions” and “trillions” are generally too big for the human mind to grasp, the site also breaks down the figures in other ways.

As of this writing, if the national debt was distributed evenly among all taxpayers, each person’s share would be about $130,000.

Feeling nervous?

We recognize the current members of Congress are not entirely responsible for this quagmire. True, there’s been a lot of pork spread around in recent years. There’s also been a lot of wasted money due to mismanagement. Considering the current state of affairs, however, these problems should at best be secondary concerns.

The true culprit has been the lack of attention regarding entitlement spending.

Everyone knew Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid were on course to disaster. For decades Congress has kicked the can down the road. To mix metaphors, that policy of letting sleeping dogs lie has come home to roost.

Congress needs to come up with a workable plan now. Unfortunately, we are convinced there will be no progress on this problem until after the 2012 general election. Too many politicians are relying on this issue as a weapon to hurl at their opponents.

Both Democrats and Republicans have been guilty of fear mongering. One side claims the cost of fully funding entitlement programs will crush the economy. The other side says our nation’s most vulnerable citizens are in danger of being tossed to the wolves.

When a plan is finally developed to address entitlement spending, it’s not going to be pleasant for anyone. Reduced benefits for entitlement recipients and increased taxes are almost certain. Delaying the process is only going to cause more problems. Not knowing what the specific changes will be produces fear for everyone. Unsure of the future, people and businesses alike are hunkering down and sitting on their cash.

That’s bad for the economy and that’s why there’s no chance of a significant recovery until the government gets its act together.

Fear is a powerful motivator. One of the most powerful fears is that of the unknown.

If Congress is serious about turning the economy around it needs to address its own budget problems first. Allowing fear to spread, or to be so despicable as to actually encourage fear for political advantage, is unacceptable.

The solution, whatever its form, is going to make a lot of people very angry. It’s going to cost some people in Congress their seats. We hope there are enough selfless people in Washington to risk making the right, if unpopular, decisions.

Our elected representatives should be willing to shoulder the risk of some anger if it means the rest of us can know what lies ahead and cast aside some of the fear our leaders are foisting upon us.

Riots the result of poor morality, greed POR TSTEWAR T, Northern Ireland — Some have compared the riots in the UK to the London Blitz. It’s a flawed comparison. The strategic bombing of London in 1940 came from an external enemy, Nazi Germany.

Aug. 14, 2011 • All the drama, color and excitement of frontier life in 19th-century New Mexico comes vividly to life this weekend when the 1986 Billy the Kid Pageant gets under way in Lincoln. The annual three-day pageant will include several performances of a play which re-enacts the most memorable events of the 1879 Lincoln County War, as well as a western parade, an old-time fiddlers contest and a series of “living history” demonstrations throughout the weekend. The pageant has been held every year since 1940 with the exception of the years during World War II. The first person to play the role of Billy the Kid was the late Peter Hurd, then living at his ranch at nearby San Patricio and already one of New Mexico’s foremost artists.

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound OPINION II

Roswell Daily Record

My family was attending an interdenominational chapel service at the YMCA of the Rockies in Estes Park, Colo., when the visiting pastor spoke to us about grace. He spoke about numerous instances in his life when he had been given grace. He closed his sermon leading us in singing the most beloved hymn of all time: “Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found, was blind, but now I see. “’Twas Grace that taught my heart to fear and Grace, my fears relieved. How precious did that Grace appear the hour I first believed.

“Through many dangers, toils and snares we have already come. ’Twas Grace that brought us safe thus far and Grace will lead us home.

“The Lord has promised good to me, his word my hope secures.

He will my shield and portion be as long as life endures.

“When we’ve been here ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun. We’ve no less days to sing God’s praise than when we first begun.

“Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. I once was lost but now am found, was blind, but now I see.”

basis. It is a favorite song for both Christians and non-Christians, cutting across core beliefs and national boundaries. On a worldwide basis, the song is associated with America.

The hymn is as old as our country, written in 1773 by sailor turned pastor John Newton. Born in London in 1725, Mr. Newton had become a Christian in Warwickshire, England in 1748. The roots of the song come from his experiences aboard his slave trade ship, the Greyhound, in 1748.

Returning home on one of his voyages, while he was attempting to steer the ship through a violent storm, Mr. Newton experienced what he was to refer to later as his “great deliverance.” He recorded in his journal that when all seemed lost and the ship would surely sink, he exclaimed, “Lord have mercy on us.” Later in his cabin he reflected on what he had said and began to believe that God had addressed him through the storm and that grace

Frankly, I am baffled by your case, as it appears many other physicians were. You definitely have run the gamut on specialists, testing and treatment. I am glad, however, that you now have relief, and I hope others who may be suffering similarly will find your story helpful.

DEAR DR. GOTT: I am a 64-year-old female with toenail fungus. I am sure I got it from trying on a pair of shoes without wearing socks or nylons about two years ago. Initially I went to my family doctor, who dismissed it as cosmetic and chose not to give me any treatment.

I have since tried overthe-counter treatments applied to the nail and skin around the nail and home remedies including vinegar soaks and iodine application. All have had some initial success, but then the effects seem to level off and the fungus remains.

Could this be more serious? Was my doctor too dismissive? A dermatologist is expensive, but would one be appropriate? Is there an effective way to keep from reinfecting my toenails from my own slippers and shoes once cured?

DEAR READER: Nail fungus can be especially difficult to treat and can sometimes take a year or more before positive results are seen.

My advice is to start with a podiatrist (foot

had begun to work for him. In the years to follow he gave up sailing and was ordained as a minister.

Mr. Newton’s song sums up the doctrine of divine grace. He wrote the words for a ser mon he preached on New Year’s Day in 1773. His sermon was based on scripture from the Bible found in I Chronicles 17:16, “Then King David went in and sat before the Lord, and he said: ‘Who am I, O Lord God, and what is my family, that you have brought me this far?’” This verse is the beginning of a prayer by David that spans 10 more verses and in which he marvels over the fact that God had chosen him and his family.

Divine grace is also addressed in the Bible in Ephesians 2:8-9, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God not by works, so that no one can boast.”

The melody for the Amazing Grace hymn was not written by Mr. Newton. He was not a composer. As was the case with other hymns of this period, the words were sung to a number of tunes.

It is believed that the tune as we know it today is Scottish or Irish in origin as it is pentatonic and suggests a bagpipe tune.

Amazing Grace was a popular song on both sides of the American Civil War. While on the “Trail of Tears,” the Cherokee were not

specialist). He or she may be less expensive and likely has more experience dealing with toenail fungus and its treatment than a dermatologist (skin specialist).

The doctor will probably start with an examination of your toes and may do scrapings and other testing to determine if you do, in fact, have a nail fungus.

If you choose to continue trying over -thecounter and home remedies, you might consider mentholated chest rub, Miranel, tea tree oil or Pau D’Arco tea soaks.

Beforehand, you should carefully clip your nails back as far as possible without causing pain or bleeding and remove any debris you may encounter (from the fungus). This can be made easier by soaking your feet in war m water to soften the nails. Keeping your toes uncovered may also be beneficial since fungi, like bacteria, prefer dark, war m, moist environments.

I suggest you periodically wash your slippers and shoes in hot, soapy water and let them dry, either in a clothes dryer or outside in the sunshine.

always able to give their dead a full burial. Instead they sang “Amazing Grace” leading some to view the song as a Cherokee National Anthem. The song is a favorite of supporters of freedom and human rights as a result of its slave trading roots. In recent years, this song has also become popular in America with drug and alcohol recovery groups at celebrations of how they “once were lost, but now are found.”

The song has been recorded by countless artists, including folk singer Judy Collins in the early 1970s, and many Native American musicians. Versions of the song have spent 67 weeks on the British charts and have reached number one on the charts in Australia.

Grace has been defined as “God giving us what we don’t deserve.”

This is dif ferent than mercy which has been defined as “God not giving us what we do deserve.”

The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language, College Edition provides 10 definitions of “grace.” Two of the definitions are, “an unmerited gift from God,” and “a favor rendered by one who need not do so.” Both of these definitions emphasize that grace is not earned by the receiver, but is graciously given by the giver.

Regardless of how grace is

nomic and political. British history and values are no longer being adequately taught in the UK for fear a sense of super-nationalism might be conveyed. This at a time when no nation is to be considered superior to any other, a view expressed by President Obama.

According to a 2007 research report on church attendance in the UK from Tearfund, a UK Christian relief and development agency, just “15 percent of UK adults go to church at least once a month.” BBC News reports that according to a 2001 Census survey, “a fifth of children are in lone-parent families ... 91 percent of these families headed by mother” and there is “a minority of married couples for the first time — 45 percent of the population versus 64 percent in 1981.” So when the government calls on parents to be more vigilant about the whereabouts of their teenagers, the likelihood there are enough stable two-parent households who care enough to do so is not encouraging.

If civility, right and wrong, personal responsibility and accountability and the right to life, liberty and personal property are not values worthy of being passed on to the next generation, then their opposites will be taught by default. Children don’t “catch” goodness and

defined, it is something that most everyone wants to receive. It would be accurate to say that it is easier to receive grace than it is to give it.

My challenge to you today is to recognize the amazing grace that has been given to you. Be thankful that undeserving grace has been extended to you without your even lifting a finger. Be a gracious recipient. Possess an attitude of gratitude. Extend grace to others.

Although blind in his later years, John Newton influenced many as he continued to preach to large congregations. His words describing amazing grace, “I once was lost but now am found, was blind, but now I see,” continue to ring down through the generations.

He died in London in 1807, secure in his faith that amazing grace would lead him home for eternity ... “when we’ve been here ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun, we’ve no less days to sing God’s praise than when we first begun.”

An eternal thought ...

right behavior as they do a cold. Their natural tendency is to do wrong. The goal of discipline is to teach them to do right. The London riots are the extreme outcome when “right” is no longer defined.

When a society refuses to impose a moral code in its schools, homes and culture, pandemonium is the result — think Detroit, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C. Multiply that several times and you have the lawlessness that has swept Britain with greater force than its mad cow disease scare.

“This was not an angry crowd; this was a greedy crowd,” said Chris Sims, chief constable of West Midlands police. One could see that from the TV shots of women trying on clothes and shoes before stealing them and men ripping flat-screen TVs off walls and smashing windows and jewelry cases.

There’s a TV program called “Sons of Anarchy.” It is fiction. These rioters are the real sons (and daughters) of anarchy and it will take more than political condemnations to repair the damage they’ve caused. Seventy years ago, the London Blitz forged a national unity in Britain. Where’s that unity today?

Another National Night Out complete!

A6 Sunday, August 14, 2011

LOCAL

National Night Out has come and gone one more time, and certainly we would call it a great success. NNO 2011, which was held nationwide, was very similar to last year’s NNO. Several of the Neighborhood block captains within the town organized special events for their groups. There were hamburger cookouts, hot dog cookouts, some hamburger and hot dog cookouts. One group had a great ice cream social. Each of these groups epitomize the concept of Neighborhood Watch, that idea of actually knowing your neighbors, and what vehicles they drive, and their kids,

maybe even knowing the kids’ friends. Most importantly, it’s the concept of looking out for your neighbors and understanding that they will be looking out for you as well.

We want to thank those block captains who participated. They sponsored those events in their yards, front and back, in their homes, in their driveways, and Valle Encantada Apartments held its event right next to a very tempting pool. The results were wonderful! We want to express our appreciation to Lana and Joe Reese, to Tommie Burnett, Julie and Artie Morrow, Pat Hittle, and to Jana Powell and her hus-

Additionally, we want to say “thanks” to two Roswell Police Department officers, Travis Holley and Sergeant

Tom Moody, who went along as we visited each of these events on August 2.

It is critical to the Neighborhood Watch program, as well as other crime prevention activities, that the police department is supportive. Our police department certainly is that! I also want to recognize Jessica Palmer, the Roswell Daily Record crime reporter, who attended some events, and is certainly important to the Chaves County Crime Stopper program too. Target Corporation, once again, is a national sponsor, and we appreciate its help locally as always.

Finally, it is important to

acknowledge those neighbors who attended these National Night Out 2011 activities. You must have leaders, who we have mentioned, but certainly if the neighbors don’t play, the program cannot survive.

Therefore, thank you to the people who attended for taking time out of your day to learn more about your neighbors!

And now, let’s turn our attention to National Night Out 2012, one year from now. I think we should consider a BIG event. Perhaps we should have a large event at Cahoon Park or some other park with some activities for Neighborhood Watch kids. Lots of

hamburgers, or hot dogs, or maybe just some snacks and cold drinks. If you are involved in a group now, give it some consideration in the next few months.

Or, if your neighborhood doesn’t have an existing Neighborhood Watch, let’s set one up! If you have an idea, give us a call. We’ll make 2012 a National Night Out to remember!

Call Steve or Richard at 622-SAFE (7233) for information about Neighborhood Watch. And don’t forget, the number for Chaves County Crime Stoppers is 1-888-594-TIPS (8477).

A group of professionals, led by New Mexico State Representative Dennis Kintigh, have written the independent review over the past few months. The independent study group

Some of the scientists and experts involved in the review include: Kintigh, Dr. Donald Wolberg, New Mexico Tech University; Calvin

Smith, executive director, Western Heritage Museum Complex; Texas rancher Bill Wight; and David Codding, Santo Petroleum, LLC. Following the review, members of the Congressional Delegation can submit the group’s findings to officials at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. FWS is

expected to make the final decision on whether to list the dunes sagebrush lizard as endangered later this year.

Immunization awareness month

August is recognized as National Immunization Awareness Month. It is a perfect time to bring children’s and adults’ shot records up-to-date and catch up on needed vaccinations early in the school year. Blue Cross and Blue Shield of New Mexico is partnering with nurses from the Department of Health to help make this easier for Roswell families.

The goal of National Immunization Awareness Month is to increase awareness about immunizations across the life span, from infants to the elderly.

Immunizations are one of the most significant health achievements of the 20th century. Vaccines provide safe and effective protection from infectious diseases. “Prevention is the

Heather Locklear engaged to TV co-star Jack Wagner NEW YORK (AP) — Heather Locklear is engaged to fellow “Melrose Place” actor Jack Wagner.

Locklear spokeswoman Sarah Fuller confirmed the engagement on Friday but offered no other details.

The actress’ divorce from Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora was finalized in April 2007. She had been dat-

ing Wagner since at least 2008.

Locklear and Wagner worked together in the 1990s on “Melrose Place,” a spinoff of “Beverly Hills, 90210.” Locklear played Amanda Woodward. Wagner played Dr. Peter Burns.

Locklear also starred on the primetime soap opera “Dynasty” and the

William Shatner police drama “T.J. Hooker.”

Wagner isn’t just an actor. He sang the 1980s pop hit “All I Need.” And he’s an accomplished golfer who twice has won the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship, an event usually won by professional athletes.

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS ROCKIES TOP CARDINALS, 6-1

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Carlos Gonzalez hit a three-run homer, Jason Hammel pitched into the seventh inning and the Colorado Rockies beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-1 on Saturday night.

Gonzalez also doubled in a run in the ninth to help the Rockies snap a three-game slide. Colorado also had dropped their last five games in St. Louis by a combined 22-3 score.

Left-hander Jaime Garcia had a rare off night at home as St. Louis fell five games behind first-place Milwaukee in the NL Central.

Gonzalez went deep in the third inning, sending an 0-2 pitch over the wall in right for his 18th homer. He also became the first lefty batter to connect against Garcia since Philadelphia slugger Ryan Howard accomplished the feat on July 21, 2010.

Gonzalez also homered in Friday night’s 6-1 loss and has three homers in his last six games. The Rockies have homered in their last six road games.

Garcia (10-6) gave up five runs in five innings, dropping to 6-3 with a 2.06 ERA in 11 home starts this season.

Ochoa, Cowboys force Game 3 Section

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

One swing; one simple, yet powerful swing.

That’s all it took for Alpine’s Nacho Ochoa to change the complexion of Saturday’s Pecos League playoff game at Joe Bauman Stadium.

Ochoa walked to the plate with the bases loaded and two outs in the top of the seventh as a pinch hitter for Eric Garcia.

He dug in, raised his back elbow high and waited for the first pitch.

When he finally got that pitch, he muscled it more than 400 feet over the leftcenter field fence for a grand slam that eventually led to a 6-5 Cowboy win in Game 2 of a three-game series.

“It was first-pitch fastball and he was sitting on it,” said Invader manager Chris Paterson about the homer.

“Nacho’s a good hitter and we just put a ball in a place we shouldn’t have.”

The Ochoa grandy capped a five-run inning for the Cowboys and put them up 6-1.

Roswell got one back in the bottom half of the same inning to make it 6-2 before they made things very interesting in the ninth.

Roswell’s Mike Miller fouls off a pitch in the bottom of the first during the Invaders’ game against Alpine on Saturday. Alpine beat Roswell 6-5 to even the best-of-three series at one.

Mike Miller walked to open the ninth for Roswell and it looked as if Trivon Howard was about to single as well in the next at-bat.

Left fielder Austin Newell made an outstanding diving grab to rob Howard, though, and that would prove to be an important storyline shortly thereafter.

Clifton Thomas singled after Howard’s fly out, bringing crowd favorite

Adrian “Boom Boom” Martinez to the plate.

He lived up to the nickname on the first pitch he saw with a high drive over the left-field wall for a threerun jack to make it 6-5.

“We usually hit the other team’s bullpen, so we knew we would tonight,” Paterson said after the game. “We just came up one short.

“The left fielder made a great play and, if he doesn’t

make that play, it’s a tie ballgame.”

The game was a pitcher’s duel for a majority of the early innings with Roswell taking a 1-0 lead in the first on a Martinez double that scored Howard.

Alpine tied things at 1-1 in the fourth when David Valesente drove in Javier Arrieta with a sacrifice fly to right field.

There was a hard-hit ball that hit Brycen’s arm and that was what kind of opened it up with the two outs,” Paterson said. “It was just a bad hop that got to

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Colby Lewis and four relievers combined on a five-hitter and the Texas Rangers beat the Oakland Athletics 7-1 on Saturday.

Ian Kinsler had two hits and three RBIs for Texas, which increased its AL West lead to three games over the Los Angeles Angels. Mike Napoli and Elvis Andrus hit run-scoring doubles off A’s starter Trevor Cahill as the Rangers (68-52) moved a season-best 16 games over .500 with their seventh consecutive victory over Oakland.

Jemile Weeks singled, doubled and tripled for Oakland, which committed four errors, had two wild pitches and lost for the seventh time in 11 games.

Dufner, Steele share lead after third round at PGA

JOHNS CREEK, Ga. (AP) — Brendan Steele is playing in his first major championship. Jason Dufner has never won a tour event.

Hard to tell at the PGA Championship.

The no-names stayed cool on a sweltering Saturday at Atlanta Athletic Club, setting up a final round that will be short on recognizable faces but could end a major drought for the Americans. Steele shot 4-under 66 and was tied with Dufner, who joined him at 7-under 203 with a 68.

Keegan Bradley, another guy playing in his first major, bounced back from

a double bogey at the first hole for a 69 that left just one stroke back heading to the final round, another perfect fit for what is developing as the theme of the year’s final major.

Who are these guys anyway?

“It feels pretty good,” Steele said. “This is something else.”

ing one run and three hits over 6 1-3 innings while striking out eight. He did not walk a batter while beating his former team for the third time this season.

The right-hander, who pitched for Oakland in 2007, was dominant after surrendering a triple to Weeks on his first pitch of the game. Lewis retired the next 17 hitters in order, including five consecutive strikeouts during one stretch.

Weeks ended Lewis’ streak with a two-out double in the sixth but Scott Sizemore struck out to end the inning.

Lewis, who hadn’t won since July 22, headed for the dugout after Josh Willingham doubled in the seventh. David DeJesus hit an RBI double off Darren Oliver, but Koji Uehara came in and struck out pinch-hitter Conor Jackson before Ryan Sweeney flied out to left to end the inning.

Kaymer and several other stars are watching from home, failing to make the cut. U.S. Open champion Rory McIlroy, who came into the week as the favorite, struggled to a 74 with his ailing wrist and won’t be a factor on Sunday.

Into the void stepped several Americans known only to the most ardent golf fans. But they’ve put the U.S. in position to capture its first major title since Phil Mickelson won the 2010 Masters. Since then, it’s an 0-for -6 drought, this country’s longest of the moder n Grand Slam era.

Ochoa’s homer came two at-bats later.

Matt Rossignol (1-1) took the loss for Roswell after allowing two runs on five hits and striking out seven in 6 1/3 innings.

Alfredo Caballero (7-3) got the win for Alpine and Brian Hobbs earned the save — his fifth of the year.

The two teams meet in the third and deciding game of the semifinal series today at 7:05 p.m.

“We still have one of our best pitchers going tomorrow in Reed Brown, who’s

else going and only made things worse with a steady stream of shaky plays in the field.

Manager Bob Melvin had his team take infield before the game but it didn’t seem to help much.

Oakland’s four errors — all coming in the infield — led to only one unearned run but extended several innings. It’s the fourth time this season the A’s have had four or more errors in a game.

It also spoiled what was an otherwise solid outing by Cahill.

Cahill (9-11) faced the minimum through five innings and carried a nohitter into the sixth before Yorvit Torrealba’s one-out single gave the Rangers their second baserunner.

Torrealba, who extended his hitting streak to 11 games, was thrown out trying to steal second but the Rangers still scored after two errors by Weeks on Endy Chavez’s grounder to second kept the inning alive.

Kinsler followed with a run-scoring double down the left-field line. longest par -3 on the course, and made it two in a row by rolling in a 12footer at the next hole.

He’s got the closest thing to a home-course advantage among the leaders — he lives about two hours away in Auburn, Ala., and is used to playing in the blistering heat and on Ber muda greens.

Steele, a 28-year -old Californian, birdied five of the first 10 holes, shaking off a double bogey at the seventh when he drove into a swale on the left, tried to putt it on and watched in dismay as the ball rolled back to his feet.

Bradley, the 25-year-old nephew of LGPA Hall of Famer Pat Bradley, got off to a jittery start. He drove his first shot into a bunker, did the same with the second and wound up taking a double-bogey 6.

But he quickly steadied himself, dropping only one more shot with a bogey at the seventh on the way to

a 204.

There were some familiar names lurking near the top. Forty-seven-yearold Scott Verplank had two late birdies for a 69 and headed to the clubhouse at 205, his creaky body holding up in the heat. Steve Stricker, the top-ranked American in the world at age 44, was another stroke back after a 69 of his own.

Neither of the old-timers has won a major title.

Maybe this will be their week.

Jim Furyk was in the mix until he put two balls in the water at the 18th and took double bogey.

The 73 dropped him to 209, a daunting six strokes off the lead. He was joined by the world’s top-ranked players, No. 1 Luke Donald (68) and No. 2 Lee Westwood (70).

Donald closed within a shot of the lead until a brutal finish. He drove into a bunker at the 18th and had no choice but to

blast out into the fairway.

Then, going at the flag a little too aggressively, he dunked his third shot in the water and wound up taking double bogey.

Masters champion Charl Schwartzel was at 208 after a 66, trying to win a second major title before the year is done.

“The course is just very penalizing,” the South African said. “I just played a little bit more — I want to say conservative maybe — but more clever. A few of the holes that were inviting me the first two rounds, I took with a bit more caution.”

David Toms, who won the PGA the last time it came to Atlanta in 2001, went even lower with a 65 and also was five shots back.

been doing good all year,” Paterson said. “We’ve got him, which is a great thing, and we’ve still got a lot of bullpen left. We’ll see what Alpine throws out there.

“The better team will win tomorrow. We have a good record, we have good players and we’re going to come out tomorrow and get this back.”

The winner of today’s deciding game will face Ruidoso in the Pecos League Championship Series. Ruidoso beat White Sands 7-0 on Saturday to complete a sweep of the Pupfish and reach the championship series. kjkeller@roswell-record.com

Ravens newcomer Evans receives Mason’s No. 85

OWINGS MILLS, Md. (AP) — The Baltimore Ravens were running a twominute drill in practice Saturday when a sure-handed receiver wearing No. 85 cut to his left, caught a pass, tapped both feet within the sideline and slipped out of bounds to stop the clock.

It was a move that Derrick Mason — good old No. 85 — did countless times in game situations. On this occasion, it was newcomer Lee Evans.

One day after being traded from Buffalo for a fourth-round draft pick, Lee Evans passed his physical and wasted no time making himself part of the Baltimore offense. He ran plays with the first team, caught several passes from Joe Flacco and finished the afternoon with a broad smile on his face.

“I was very excited to come here and be a part of something special,” said Evans, who experienced only one winning season since being selected in the first round of the 2004 draft by the Bills.

“Obviously, this has been a very historic franchise, a winning organization. I just want to come in and do my part, and do anything I can do to help them win.”

The 30-year-old Evans fills the hole created when the Ravens cut Mason last month in a salary-cap purge. Not only did he assume Mason’s role as Flacco’s second target behind Anquan Boldin, but he also took Mason’s number, the only one left in the 80s.

“It’ll probably change,” said Evans, who wore 83 in Buffalo. “It’s the only available one right now.”

Evans wouldn’t care if the Ravens gave him a number suited for a left tackle, because he loves the idea of playing for a team that has reached the playoffs in each of the past three seasons. To Evans, the Ravens represent a sense of normality compared to Buffalo, which went through a vari-

ety of quarterbacks and four head coaches during his seven-year tenure.

“It’s been a whirlwind in Buffalo,” he said.

“To come into a stable situation, it builds confidence that I can continue to get better every day.”

Evans was surprisingly sharp during Saturday’s three-hour session, which began outside but moved inside after it began to thunder within the opening 60 minutes.

“He looked good out there today. He definitely has an extra gear to him,” Flacco said. “That’s going to be a big plus for us, to be able to kind of stretch the field vertically a little bit and challenge some teams. So, I’m excited about it. Yeah, he can run, and he can run routes well, too.”

Evans started all 16 games for the Bills in each of his first six seasons before an ankle injury cut his participation to 13 games last year. He finished with a career-low 37 catches and four touchdowns — three against the Ravens in a 37-34 overtime defeat.

“I remember the success he had against us. It’s a bad memory. We couldn’t cover him,” Baltimore coach John Harbaugh said.

Brewers edge Pirates, Blue Jays crush Angels

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Marco Estrada pitched five innings in a spot start, combining with four relievers on a three-hitter, and Yuniesky Betancourt homered to carry the NL Centralleading Milwaukee Brewers to a 1-0 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Saturday.

Takashi Saito, LaT roy Hawkins, Francisco Rodriguez and John Axford, who ear ned his 34th save by working around a lead-off triple in the ninth, completed the shutout.

Pinch-hitter Xavier Paul tripled to center leading off the ninth. But Andrew McCutchen and Matt Diaz both grounded out with the infield, leaving Paul at third.

After Garrett Jones walked, Axford struck out Neil Walker swinging, but the ball trickled away from catcher Jonathan Lucroy, who pounced on it and threw to first to end the game.

Estrada (3-8) took the mound for Chris Narveson, who was placed on the disabled list Wednesday with a cut thumb on his throwing hand.

Kevin Correia (12-11), who leads the majors with 10 wins on the road this season for Pittsburgh, lost for the second time this season at Miller Park.

Estrada retired the first seven batters before Ronny Cedeno lined a single to left with one out in the third.

He advanced on Correia’s sacrifice, but second was as far as any Pirate got in five innings as Estrada caught McCutchen looking to end the inning.

He retired the side in order in the fourth and fifth before being lifted for Zack Greinke, who pinch hit for him in the bottom of the fifth. Greinke wore Sunday’s special jersey with Bierbrauer across the front of the jersey. No protest was raised.

Estrada struck out five in his fifth start and 33rd appearance of the season.

His other win came April 6, the same day his contract was selected from Triple-A Nashville. He beat Atlanta at home in a start for Greinke who was on the disabled list with a cracked left rib.

Narveson needed eight stitches to close a deep slice across the top of the thumb on his throwing hand. He cut it Tuesday while using scissors to repair his glove.

Betancourt fouled off the first two pitches from Correia before sending the third to the bleachers in left for his ninth home run of the season.

The Pirates had been providing more than six runs in support of Correia, but came up empty against Estrada and company.

Correia worked 6 2-3 and allowed seven hits.

It was Milwaukee’s 11th straight and 33rd in 35 games when Pittsburgh visits, dating to May 4, 2007.

Blue Jays 11, Angels 2 TORONTO (AP) — Jered Weaver wasn’t going to sulk about one awful outing. In fact, he even had a song ready for the occasion.

“Mama said there’ll be days like this,” the Angels ace sang as he prepared to leave the clubhouse following a rare pounding.

Adam Lind hit a grand slam, Edwin Encarnacion and Mark Teahen also went deep, and the Toronto Blue Jays beat Weaver and the Los Angeles Angels 11-2 on Saturday.

All three homers came off Weaver, who allowed eight runs and eight hits, both season highs, in 4 2-3 innings, his shortest outing of the year.

“It took 20-some odd starts for it to happen, but it’s going to happen,” Weaver said. “You can’t hang your head. Just get out there and battle the next time.”

The right-hander, who had won eight of nine decisions, saw his AL-leading ERA rise from 1.78 to 2.13.

“He’s been lights out all year,” Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. “This is one where it just wasn’t there for him. He’ll be ready for his next start.”

Weaver (14-6) was pitching for the first time since Aug. 5 after serving a sixgame suspension for throwing over the head of Detroit’s Alex Avila in a loss on July 31. The Angels ace originally appealed the suspension, but decided last Saturday to serve his punishment in full. Still, he acknowledged feeling “rusty” after a seven-day layoff.

“Just kind of flat,” he said. “Nothing was very sharp. I usually have a pitch I can go to to get me out of situations and I did not really have that today.”

Riding a streak of 15 consecutive quality starts, Weaver was in trouble from the get-go against Toronto, surrendering a two-run shot to Encarnacion in the first, the 10th homer of the season for the Blue Jays infielder.

Toronto added one more in the second on back-toback doubles by Rajai Davis and John McDonald, then blew it open with a five-run fifth.

Yunel Escobar hit a oneout double before walks to Eric Thames and Encarnacion loaded the bases for Lind, who drove Weaver’s first pitch over the wall in right for his 20th homer and third career grand slam. One out later, Teahen chased Weaver with a solo drive to right, his fourth.

The slumping Lind had just eight hits in 58 at-bats before the grand slam —

his 100th career home run.

He homered for the first time since July 26 against Baltimore.

“You make a mistake to a guy like that and he’s going to put it where he wants to, and he did,” Weaver said.

The beneficiary of Toronto’s offensive outburst was Ricky Romero, who won his fourth straight start for the second time in his career.

The left-hander allowed one run and two hits in seven innings. He walked two and struck out three.

Romero (11-9), who also won four straight in his 2009 rookie season, has an ERA of 1.15 over his past four outings and has allowed just 11 hits in 31 1-3 innings.

“Just being consistent, throwing strikes, getting quick outs and getting deep into games,” Romero said.

“There’s really no other formula. I’m kind of just going out there and competing.

The key for me every time I go deep into games is strike one. That’s big with me, and when I do that I feel like I’m in control.”

The Angels’ lone run against Romero came on a leadoff homer by Alberto Callaspo in the fifth.

“He’s got the kind of stuff that he deserves to be an ace on any staff,” former teammate Ver non Wells said of Romero.

Yankees 9, Rays 2 NEW YORK (AP) — Jorge Posada hit a grand slam and drove in six runs in his first game since being benched six days ago, and Phil Hughes made his case to remain in the New York Yankees’ rotation with six effective innings in a 9-2 victory Saturday that ended the Tampa Bay Rays’ fivegame winning streak.

Posada laced a basesloaded single off Jeremy Hellickson (10-8) in the second to give New York a 2-0 lead. He singled in the fourth then hit his 10th homer and 10th career slam in the fifth off Brandon Gomes.

Hughes (3-4) gave up four hits and two runs. He walked one and struck out seven.

Indians 3, Twins 1 CLEVELAND (AP) — Asdrubal Cabrera hit a three-run homer and Josh Tomlin pitched shutout ball into the seventh inning, leading the Cleveland Indians to a 3-1 victory over the Minnesota Twins on Saturday night.

Cabrera connected in the third, driving a 1-0 pitch from Brian Duensing (8-11) over the wall in left for his 20th homer. Shin-Soo Choo hit a leadof f single and Jason Donald walked before Cabrera went deep.

Tomlin (12-5) and four relievers made it hold up, with Chris Perez pitching a perfect ninth for his 25th save in 28 chances.

Reds 13, Padres 1 CINCINNATI (AP) — Miguel Cairo and R yan Hanigan each homered twice, and the Reds hit seven in all off starter Tim Stauf fer and the Padres bullpen — matching a San Diego record — while powering their way to a 13-1 victory on Saturday night.

The Reds won their fourth straight game — one shy of their season high — with their biggest home run

splurge of the season.

Stauffer (7-9) gave up five homers in only three innings, tying Woody Williams’ club record for most allowed in a game.

Stauffer gave up three — his previous career high — in a 9-8 loss to the Mets on Monday.

Reds starter Homer Bailey (7-5) gave up six hits in seven innings, including Kyle Blanks’ homer.

Phillies 11, Nationals 3 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Ryan Howard homered and drove in four runs and Roy Oswalt pitched seven solid innings to lead the Philadelphia Phillies to an 11-3 victory over the mistake-prone Washington Nationals on Saturday.

Oswalt (5-7), making his second start since coming off the 15-day DL Aug. 6 with a back injury, gave up three runs on six hits in seven innings. He also earned the victory in his last start despite tying his career high by allowing 12 hits in a 3-1 win at San Francisco Aug. 7.

The Nationals committed three costly errors that led to seven runs.

John Lannan (8-8) surrendered seven runs, but just one ear ned run, in three innings on four hits while walking five and striking out one. He did not come out to pitch the fourth due to a possible injury.

Giants 3, Marlins 0 MIAMI (AP) — Tim Lincecum allowed two hits in seven scoreless innings and Jeff Keppinger provided a first-inning solo home run to lead the San Francisco Giants past the Florida Marlins 3-0 on Saturday night.

Lincecum (11-9) walked

three, struck out 10 and hit a batter while lowering his league-leading road ERA to 2.08. He has given up one run or less in six of his last seven starts overall.

Jeremy Affeldt pitched a 1-2-3 eighth and Brian Wilson a scoreless ninth for his 35th save in 39 tries.

Javier Vazquez (7-10) surrendered three runs and five hits in seven innings.

He struck out 10 and threw two wild pitches. It was his eighth quality start in his last 11 outings.

Keppinger’s first-inning shot extended San Francisco’s major league record of consecutive solo home runs to 21.

Tigers 6, Orioles 5 BAL TIMORE (AP) — Miguel Cabrera homered in a five-run sixth inning that featured six consecutive two-out hits, and the Detroit T igers rallied to beat the Baltimore Orioles 6-5 Saturday night.

Detroit trailed 5-0 in the second before mounting its biggest comeback of the season.

Baltimore’s Jeremy Guthrie (5-16) took a twohitter and a 5-1 lead into the sixth. He retired the first two batters before Magglio Ordonez doubled and Cabrera hit the next pitch over the right-field wall. Victor Martinez and Jhonny Peralta followed with singles, and Alex Avila hit a ground-rule double on a 3-0 pitch to cut the deficit to 5-4.

R yan Rabur n chased Guthrie by grounding a two-run single up the middle.

Fill-in Costa may have earned job on Cowboys’ line Roswell Daily Record

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — When center Andre Gurode reported to Dallas Cowboys training camp with a recently repaired knee, Phil Costa was bumped up to the first team.

Gurode returned to play Saturday and immediately regained his spot over the ball in front of Tony Romo.

Costa, meanwhile, might not be going far.

Team owner Jerry Jones gushed with praise for the second-year lineman, practically promising he will be a starter. While there’s always the chance Costa could unseat Gurode at center, he’s more likely to wind up at left guard, which is currently manned by rookie David Arkin.

“Costa is going to play a lot for the Cowboys — now.

Now,” Jones said, emphasizing the word the second time. “Boy I am glad we’ve got him. I don’t know if anyone has had a better preseason than he’s had. I put him right there at the top, from my perspective, of preseason work and how impressed we’ve been with him.”

Gurode, a five-time Pro Bowler, had arthroscopic surgery on his knee this summer. While he could have done it earlier in the lockout and healed in time for training camp, Jones continues to maintain a better-late-than-never attitude, perhaps especially now that it created an opportunity to see Costa in action.

Costa has taken control of the job from the start.

Coaches praise his leadership in the huddle and at

the line, recognizing what the defense is trying to do and passing along that information to the rest of the line.

He’s pretty good once the ball is snapped, too.

“Since he’s been here, he’s been kind of a bulldog — he scratches and claws and fights and really battles in all areas,” coach Jason Garrett said. “He plays from the snap to the whistle and we like how he goes about it. It’s good to know he’s improved as much as he has.”

Costa played the entire first half of the preseason opener against Denver.

Jones said Costa’s grade for the game included “two or three double plusses.”

“I wouldn’t blink or lose any sleep over Costa starting a game for us,” Jones said. “He certainly has played well enough to give us a lot of confidence. I have addressed that directly with the coaches and they feel the same way.”

The offensive line has been in flux since the lockout ended and Jones made re-signing left tackle Doug Free his top priority.

Free indeed stuck around, and would be the only incumbent back in the same spot if Costa winds up at center.

Top pick Tyron Smith was handed the right tackle spot, replacing the released Marc Colombo, and Jones raved about the rookie’s performance so far. To help ensure Smith has a smooth transition to the NFL, veteran Kyle Kosier has been moved next to him, at right

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Dennis Allen hopes to make the job of Denver Broncos defensive coordinator something more than a short-time gig.

Six men have held the job in the previous six years: Don Martindale (2010), Mike Nolan (2009), Bob Slowik (2008), Jim Bates (2007) and Larry Coyer (2003-06).

Allen is the latest to try to find some success and staying power.

“Hey, it’s crazy like that,” said defensive tackle Marcus Thomas, one of the Broncos’ longest-tenured players as a fourth-round pick in 2007. “But with this new ‘D’ and everything, it seems like he’s going to be here for a while.

Everything he’s saying, it fits how I play. Everybody’s buying in and catching on real fast. It’s real solid out there.”

Denver’s defense ranked last in total yards (390.8) and points per game (29.4).

The pendulum had swung so far that the Broncos brought in a defensiveminded head coach in John Fox as a counter to the offensive leaders that roamed the sidelines for more than a decade in Mike Shanahan and Josh McDaniels.

Fox’s long-standing relationship with three members of the New Orleans staff — head coach Sean Payton, defensive coordinator Gregg Williams and defensive line coach Bill Johnson — led to an interview with Allen, who had served as the Saints’ assistant defensive line coach and defensive backs coach.

He was widely known as an up-and-coming young assistant.

Fox had been Denver’s coach for a week in January when he began preparing for his move from North Carolina. The only way Allen and Fox could align their schedules was by meeting at Fox’s home. Fox picked up Allen at the airport around 8 a.m. and the two talked philosophy and scheme for the next seven hours before an offer was

extended and accepted.

“Kudos to my wife,” Fox said. “She had a grease board and all that stuf f lined up. I had pens, little erasers. So basically she converted my bar into a little coaches’ office, and it was kind of neat. It was neat for him, I think, to be somewhere other than somebody’s facility. He’s a very sharp, impressive coach and I think he’s a real good candidate as a head coach.”

Allen’s first job is to return Denver’s defense to respectability.

The addition of second overall draft pick Von Miller at strong-side linebacker, the return of defensive end and 2010 NFL sack leader Elvis Dumervil and a slew of signings in the interior defensive line will help. The Broncos’ philosophy has changed from a 3-4 alignment to a 4-3 look that will attack from a variety of angles.

“It’s partly scheme but a lot of it is just mentality,” Allen said. “I think the only advantage defenses have anymore is they have to be feared. So that’s the thing that we want to be. We want to be a violent, aggressive defense that plays within the rules, but we’re going to try to hit you as hard as we can and then obviously schematically, we’re going to try to bring pressures in different areas when we get you in those downs and distances.”

Denver’s 24-23 loss in the preseason opener at Dallas didn’t provide many clues into the ultimate ef fectiveness of Allen’s group. The first-team defense was on the field for only one series. The low point was a missed tackle in the hole followed by a breakaway run, this time for 18 yards by the Cowboys’ Felix Jones. Yet pressure by Dumervil on a third-and-10 play forced quarterback Tony Romo to step up in the pocket and hurry a throw that was incomplete, stopping the drive at 54 yards and keeping the damage to three points.

Allen looks for long stint with Broncos

amount after the temperature hit at least 100 degrees in 40 of the last 41 days.

Problem was, Dallas was supposed to work out at team headquarters because there was an all-day youth football tournament at Cowboys Stadium. But the tournament was put together by former Super Bowl MVP Larry Brown — one of Garrett’s former teammates — and they were able to work everything out. The kids’ schedule was adjusted, with the consolation prize that about 1,000 of them and their families got to watch the Cowboys practice.

“We were going to go out to Valley Ranch and use it as an opportunity to get back out in the heat and work, and I open up the curtains this morning very early and all of a sudden it was 68 and raining,” Garrett said. “I said to the players, ‘How big was the group prayer last night?’ ... It was great to know part of the Cowboys family was a part of that thing and helped us out. It made for a good day of practice for us.”

NOTES: NT Jay Ratliff and CB Michael Jenkins also returned to practice Saturday and could play against San Diego a week from Sunday. ... LB Keith Brooking and RB Tashard Choice are more likely to play the game after that. ...

CB Terence Newman is a bit ahead of schedule in his recovery, which means he is more likely to play the opener, Sept. 11 at the New York Jets.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo calls a play against the Denver Broncos during the first quarter of their game, Thursday.

guard.

Kosier started at left guard the last few years, with Leonard Davis handling the right side. But Davis was waived and Montrae Holland was given first dibs there. Holland hurt his back, triggering Kosier’s move and Arkin’s promotion on the left side. The Cowboys didn’t want to plug Arkin in next to Smith because that would’ve meant side-by-side rookies.

Holland could still be an option at left guard, but the competition is more likely between Arkin and whoever doesn’t end up at center, Costa or Gurode.

“We’re letting things play

out as they are, and see how Montrae comes on,” offensive line coach Hudson Houck said. “There’s a lot of moving parts at this point.”

Gurode had a solid return to practice. He got a few plays off to give him extra rest and went off for his own conditioning work while teammates ran a series of sprints.

“We try to practice with a great tempo and we believe the center and the quarterback have a lot to do with everybody practicing at a great tempo,” Garrett said.

“So he needs to get up to speed with us, and he understands that. As practice wore on, I thought he

did a good job of hanging in there and really setting the pace for us. He needs to continue to do that. He needs a lot of work, but he’s an awfully good football player and it’s good to have him back.”

Gurode said his knee is “getting better and better every day.”

“I felt like I wasn’t as sharp as I should have been, but I was happy to be back out there with the guys,” he said.

This was the Cowboys’ first day of training camp back in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, and it began with a twist: nearly an inch of rain, the first serious

Fixing the federal budget

Dear Editor: Almost 55 years ago, on Nov. 18, 1965, Nikita Khrushchev, in an address to Western ambassadors at a reception at the Polish embassy in Moscow said, “We will bury you!”

That was during the height of the Cold War and we all thought he meant in the aftermath of nuclear war. Perhaps that wasn’t what he meant. Perhaps he was looking a half century into the future.

The Soviet Union isn’t around anymore.

But there are plenty of countries left in the world who would be more than happy to act as pallbearers after the self destructive demise of the late, great, USA. The Washington establishment seems suicidal. The Democrat saying, “No cuts in social programs!”

The Republicans crying out, “No new taxes!” The president holding his head in his hands wondering what he can do with these spoiled children in the sandbox called Congress.

While we have a three-ring circus passing the blame around like a game of musical chairs the adults in the world are shaking their heads and wondering what the hell happened to the greatest super-power on Earth. Why are we on this path to selfdestruction? To national suicide?

Neither party seems to have a plan except one that absolves themselves of all blame and denies themselves of any responsibility for fixing the problem.

I have a plan. Probably not a very good one since I am not a politician. I never went to college so I don’t have a degree in anything. All I have is 77 years of life experience. But it is a plan. I call it my 10 percent plan and it includes everybody who is a member of this vast family we call the United States and its government of the people, by the people, and for the people, even though it is currently an extremely dysfunctional family.

I propose an across-the-board 10 percent cut in every government program from defense to entitlements. A 10 percent cut in Social Security checks for those who get more than $1,000 a month in those payments. A 10 percent increase in Part B Medicare contributions from $98 dollars to $107.80 a month. Likewise a 10 percent cut in military retirement annuities. (I collect both Social Security and a military retirement annuity so I am not asking anyone to do what I am not prepared to do myself. Most NCOs are like that.)

Likewise, a 10 percent increase in income taxes and FICA contributions. That would raise the top marginal rate from 35 percent to 38.5 percent. Certainly not that big a pill to swallow for your country if you have any spark of patriotism left in your body.

TODAY IN HISTORY

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Today is Sunday, Aug. 14, the 226th day of 2011.

There are 139 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight On Aug. 14, 1941, President Franklin D. Roosevelt and British Prime Minister Winston Churchill issued the Atlantic Charter, a statement of principles that renounced aggression, endorsed the right of people to choose their form of government and called for improving the economic well-being of nations.

cuts to those who collected entitlements.

It’s the fault of all of us directly or indirectly.

When a household finds itself in financial straits, the way out is cuts in spending for things like dining out, going to the movies, eating T -bones instead of hamburger and making that pair of shoes last another six months or so. And the breadwinner usually takes on a second and perhaps a third job to increase household revenues to accelerate the debt payoffs, perhaps save a bit, and shorten the time in which they can become solvent again. For our country that second job has to be revenue increases in the form of my proposed increased tax rates and closing tax loopholes.

So, is America going to be a family that sticks together in a time of crisis, or are we going to keep bickering our way to selfdestruction and give those pallbearers waiting in the wings the task they are gleefully hoping for?

Hope, change never materialized

Dear Editor: In your Friday and Saturday editions of the paper you published two lengthy letters trying to clarify the Democratic Party’s point of view on the nation’s recent financial dilemma. Both letters bemoaned those of the “tea party” persuasion for participating in the political arena. The letters were sprinkled with a litany of demeaning, but colorful terms that portray tea party supporters in a very poor light.

A couple of our large local business establishments failed to escape the wrath of Friday’s letter as they were castigated for driving small businesses out of business or not providing enough aid to our social disadvantaged. Wal-Mart operates in the real world where competition is a fact of life, and in America competition has always been a strong underpinning of our capitalist system.

Should Halliburton have a branch that provides aid for the social disadvantaged?

Good grief I don’t think so. The “socially disadvantaged,” an ever-growing segment of society, is cared for and nurtured by various levels of our government. Halliburton along with other businesses and taxpayers already care for this group of society by paying taxes to the government who in turn redistributes our collected tax monies in a fair and equitable manner to those claiming “social disadvantage” status.

As for the “chairman” who appeared in Saturday’s paper (Fred Moran seems to be a regular contributor), he certainly has no lack of passion in his writings; however his “indisputable facts” seem as much off base as his historical recollections.

In 2007, when the U.S. House was taken over by the Democrats with Nancy Pelosi

In 1848, the Oregon Territory was created.

In 1908, a race riot erupted in Springfield, Ill., as a white mob began setting black-owned homes and businesses on fire; at least two blacks and five whites were killed in the violence.

In 1909, the newly opened Indianapolis Motor Speedway held its first event, a series of motorcycle races.

In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act into law.

In 1936, Rainey Bethea, 22, became the last man to be publicly executed in the

United States as he was hanged in Owensboro, Ky., for raping 70-year-old Lischia Edwards.

In 1945, President Harry S. Truman announced that Japan had surrendered unconditionally, ending World War II. In 1947, Pakistan became independent of British rule.

In 1951, newspaper publisher William Randolph Hearst, 88, died in Beverly Hills, Calif.

In 1969, British troops went to Northern Ireland to intervene in sectarian violence between Protestants and Roman Catholics.

as speaker she implemented the draining of the swamp. I guess the “stark reality” of that task has proven it to be undoable.

Then there was “PayGo.” Another promise

by Pelosi for no debt ceiling increases. This turned out to be another undoable. In 2007 George W. Bush was the president, but the House and Senate were controlled by a Democrat majority. Unemployment for 2007 was 4.6 percent. The yearly average for 2008, even with the president, Senate and House controlled by Democrats was still a respectable 5.8 percent. The average unemployment figure for 2009 at 9.3 percent reflected the results of a nation being run for over a year by an ideologue whose “Hope & Change” policy wreaked havoc on the nation.

The incalculable damage to the nation’s economic engine continued the following year as Obamacare was enacted and unemployment rose to 9.6 percent. To stem the upward spiral of unemployment, close to a trillion dollars was spent. Time seems to show that this huge expenditure was for naught, but the public has been

repeatedly assured it would have been much worse if the government hadn’t intervened. With the budget expenditures at an all-time high we needed a debt ceiling to match. Reluctantly this was recently enacted and as a reward the stock market nosedived and the nation’s credit rating was lowered to AA+.

“Hope & Change” has amounted to our nation being run by an administration of incompetents backed by the duplicity of Congress. I thought the election of 2010 would show Washington that a different direction was desired. I was wrong. Now whether watching TV, or reading the paper I know as a “tea party” supporter I will repeatedly be referred to by one foul term after another, and all the time the Democrats will be crying out for more civility in our political discourse.

On to the elections of 2012, it is with great anticipation I look forward to once and for all an end to the term of our worst president in history.

Moran gets it wrong

Dear Editor: I first glanced at the article written by Fred Moran, chairman of the Democrat Party of Chaves County, published by the Roswell Daily Record on Aug, 6 and thought it was a joke.

The first laughable comment Mr. Moran made was that of George Bush making it possible for the terrorists to blow up the Twin Towers. Mr. Moran attempts to remove all blame for the terrible economy we have under the present president, Hussein Obama. Of course I find this is very typical of most radical Democrats. Furthermore Mr. Moran appears to use the history of the “Brown Shirts” under Adolf Hitler, to begin his attack on what I always considered “fellow Americans” even if they belonged to a different political party. Perhaps the leader of the Democrat Party here in Chaves County sees things much differently.

Mr. Moran’s comment on “War for Oil” left me wondering if this was a war I and others missed. I tried to find some information of such a war but failed. I suppose Mr. Moran had access to a professional statistician to arrive at the amount of $4.2 trillion added to the deficit. I wonder how much was added to the deficit because of illegal use of welfare loopholes, entitlements and the enormous amounts lost because of Carter’s “Prime Loan” fiasco and further pushed by ladies’ man, Bill Clinton? I have always heard that a good statistician can mathematically prove that one could saddle a duck and enter it into the Kentucky Derby.

Moran stated that Obama had the country on the mend. Duh! Now that part I completely missed. I do remember Obama literally throwing money to the wind, calling it stimulus money. I see very little it did, in fact it might have done considerable harm.

Chrysler took it and sold out, General Motors took it and downsized, others took it and only God knows what happened to it.

I must say, the thread Obama used to mend the hole was a very cheap grade, did not last long, broke so fast apparently only Mr. Moran saw the fix.

He calls the tea party an (asylum) and the members act like terrorists! He indicates he thinks most or all of the members are uneducated and rather stupid. Some of my tea party friends are teachers, lawyers, Realtors etc. There are also members that are disabled veterans, two are amputees. I would call these people highly educated and certainly not terrorists. Actually, I would be afraid to call them terrorists. I believe Mr. Moran is making a terrible mistake in thinking the working people in the tea party are not intelligent, or maybe he knows they are educated, intelligent and honest, so he writes a very untrue accusing

LETTERS rant, hoping others will follow his belief.

Attempting to belittle Rep. Steve Pearce is a terrible mistake. Rep. Pearce is one of the most capable congressmen I have ever had in my district. I am proud of him for doing the job he has done here in his district. He serves with dignity and honesty and has never turned his back on his constituents. He has never refused to listen or help anyone who asked. Rep. Steve Pearce does not deserve the criticism you have made during your ranting and raving. This could cause a backlash among your party members, because I know many of them and they are outstanding American citizens.

Group pushes fossil fuels

Dear Editor: Everyone is entitled to a view but those should always be listed as what they are (views) and not be presented as facts.

Maybe those people/organizations should be listed for what they are when their opinions are being published so their agendas are known.

Marita Noon’s two-page “opinion” needs to be exposed for what it is, agenda of a fossil fuel advocacy organization.

The state could indeed become a major source for alternative energy as with its fossil fuel. But to stop alternative energy through fear tactics would take benefits away from the future citizens of New Mexico (its children). If a deal was worked out to benefit the state and all its citizens with the utility companies everyone in the state could receive free energy. Let’s do some dealing with energy companies for the people of New Mexico. So many possibilities for a good future for New Mexico and the United States. Let’s not just have the status quo, it isn’t working.

Some interesting facts: The Citizens’ Alliance for Responsible Energy is a fossil fuel advocacy organization. The group opposes environmental activism and the pursuit of “green,” or sustainable energy development, saying the pursuit of solar and wind power “will end the America we know and love.” The group refers to sustainable energy advocates as “Gang Green.” The group’s website contains a quote by Fred L. Smith Jr., president of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, in which he claims that environmental activists are seeking to undermine American sovereignty and advance a “global wealth transfer scheme.”

“We can say this for environmental activists — they are persistent, constantly developing collectivist schemes to increase the size and scope of government. And they

are becoming more ambitious. Not content with giving more power to Uncle Sam, they now seek to give greater power to the United Nations, a move that would seriously undermine American sovereignty and pave the way for top-down global wealth transfer schemes that would make the Great Society look small.”

The group was founded by Mark E. Mathis, its executive director, a former TV anchor, a radio talk show host and a consultant to the Independent Petroleum Association of New Mexico. A disclosure statement with an opinion column stated that Citizens’ Alliance for Responsible Energy is funded by more than 250 members including New Mexico oil and gas producers.

The executive director of the Citizens Alliance is Marita Noon, who, before joining the Alliance was known nation-wide as a popular Christian speaker. For the previous 30 years, Noon was in the business of training Christian speakers.

On its website, CARE states that it is “devoted to educating the public about the need to guarantee our access to the affordable energy that drives our nation forward.”

A June 2008 blog post stated that veteran anti-environmentalist Ron Arnold had been “an integral part of CARE’s founding.”

In March 2006 Mathis was a co-signatory on a letter, initiated by the Competitive Enterprise Institute, in support of an expansion of oil drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

In its 2005 annual return, CARE reported that it had total revenue of $184,815. Of this Mark Mathais was paid $59,580. The following year CARE’s income dropped marginally to $160,163 but Mathais’ renumeration had climbed to $74,063.

‘Wealth redistribution’ equals Communism

Dear Editor: This is in response to the letter to you from Democrat chairman Fred Moran (Aug. 6, 2011, RDR). In his letter, Mr. Moran advocates increasing taxes so the federal government can spend its way out of debt!

He then urges that Republicans study economics!

Before his election in 2008, President Obama had never managed anything even as large as a sidewalk lemonade stand. So he is eminently qualified to run the largest economy in the world.

The recent downgrading of the U.S. debt

by Standard and Poor’s should come as no surprise. It is the direct result of Obama’s

Roswell Daily Record borrow and spend policy. According to Mr. Moran, however, our current financial ills are really the fault of George W. Bush!

Blame for everything bad must go Bush, otherwise we would blame the incompetent Obama and his crowd.

Perhaps Mr. Moran should take his own advice and read a little history. When asked how long the American Republic would last, Thomas Jefferson replied, “Only until the majority learns that it can vote itself largess from the public treasury.” We are at that point now. Fully one-half of Americans pay no federal income tax. The result is that only one-half of Americans are saddled with the entire federal tax burden. This does not bode well for our future.

History from a more recent time might be instructive for Mr. Moran. For several years during his teens, Barack Obama was “mentored” by a man named Frank Marshall Davis. Davis was an admitted Communist on whom the FBI had a thick file. In his books, Obama never gave Davis’ full name, only referring to him as “Frank.” A few years later Obama became associated with Bill Ayers and his wife, Bernadine Dohrn.

Both Ayers and his wife were admitted Communists, founders of the Weather Underground, and terrorists who committed bombings in various federal buildings.

In his book, “Das Kapital,” Karl Marx described Communism as “from each according to his means and to each according to his needs.” This redistribution idea was tried in the Soviet Union, Communist China, Cuba and numerous other countries. It has utterly failed wherever it has been tried. Here in this country, President Obama has often stated that, “We need to redistribute the wealth in this country.” His policies reflect that belief. One cannot be faulted for wondering what, or who, might be the basis for Obama’s economic ideas.

Yours very truly, William F. Brainerd Roswell

119 Roswell churches all correct?

Dear Editor: Faith and superstition have the same dictionary meaning.

Faith — complete acceptance of a “truth” which cannot be demonstrated or proved by the process of logical thought.

Superstition — a belief or beliefs not justified by reason or evidence or religious canon.

Might be something to ponder for the 5,000 people (10 percent) who attend church on any given Sunday.

Roswell Fine Art s L eag ue a nd New Mexi co Min iature A rts Society Present: 28t h Annu al J uri ed Ar t S how and Co mpeti ti on

Oil paintings, sculptures, photography are the arts the community can enjoy when the Roswell Fine Arts League and New Mexico Miniature Arts Society combine to present the 28th annual Juried Art Show and Competition. The show will be held at the Roswell Museum and Art Center, Aug. 18 through Aug. 28. The show will feature over 250 extraordinary works of art by artists from all over the United States and abroad.

The event will kick off with a gala reception Thursday, Aug. 18, and will begin at 6:30 p.m. There will also be a presentation of awards. The exhibition will continue through Sunday, Aug. 28, during regular museum hours; Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays 1 to 5 p.m. This event is free and open to the public There are over 275 entries by nearly 100 artists spanning the United States and even England. The works are a plethora of mediums, including oils, watercolors, pastels, collages, pen and ink; three-dimensional works, including functional works and sculptures; photography and digital creations; miniature works, which are impressive with their detail and intricacy. Also featured will be a special collection of student art, from preschool through high school.

Jurors select the art that will be showcased at the art show. This year those jurors are Noel Marquez and Nancy Fleming.

Noel Marquez is a nationally known muralist and painter. In 2008 he received the Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts for Painting and Mural Artistry.

His public mural creations can be seen in such communities as Hobbs, Lake Arthur, Carlsbad, Mesquite and Artesia.

Nancy Fleming has worked with the Roswell Artist-inResidence Program and Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art for more than 15 years. She is also currently affiliated with the legacy program for Roswell I.S.D. Art in the Schools program and the Sidney Gutierrez Middle School.

“Its interesting to see all the submitted work. We picked the pieces we enjoyed looking at and knew that other people would enjoy looking at them as well. I appreciate the fact that they picked me to be a juror this year,” said Fleming.

This year’s judges are Diane Marsh, who is a nationally known studio artist noted for her work in oils. She has been awarded such prestigious grants such as the National Endowment for the Arts and the Roswell Artistin-Residence Program. She is the current director of Special Projects for the RAiR-Roswell Artist-in-Residence Foundation.

Another judge is Stacie Peterson and she is the registrar of the Roswell Museum and Art Center. She cares for and manages the museum’s permanent collection.

She is a graduate of Texas Tech University with a master’s in museum science and history.

The art show will be held at the Roswell Museum and Art Center, and museum director Laurie Rufe is thrilled for the upcoming event.

“This event is a staple in the Roswell arts community and it is our biggest draw. It’s great to see local and

regional artists’ work and it’s a great opportunity to promote literacy in the arts.”

Richard Cibak, logistics director of the show, says the quality of art has increased over the years, and become more diverse.

“Most of the years we have a lot of Roswell people and it’s neat to see high-quality artists here and those that come from all over the country; it’s fun.”

Many of the artists are excited for the upcoming show and to see how they placed.

Stephanie DeFranco, from Roswell, is a secondyear entrant and has passed from student level to artist level in photography.

“I’m excited for the show. All the pieces I submitted got in.”

DeFranco has also taken part in various shows in southeastern New Mexico and will try to get into other juried shows and will be returning for next year’s show here.

Denise Imke, from Alto, is a first-time entrant in this year’s art show. She has entered shows in Texas and decided it was time to enter this year’s art show in Roswell.

“I enjoy the museum and it’s close to home,” she said. All four pieces she submitted entered the show. Imke is a still-life painter and says she collects various items throughout the year and when it’s time to paint she picks her favorites that have good, reflective quality. One of her paintings she submitted, took her a week to create. Imke says the majority of her work is still-life painting, others are figurative, whimsical paintings. She has been oil painting for 30 years and says it is very likely she will enter again.

Steven Jackson, from Santa Fe, is a third-time entrant and has submitted a variety of photographs.

“I spend a lot of time in Hondo, and I captured the light in an area in Hondo right before the sun went down, Lots of photographs just happen, you can never plan them,” said Jackson. Jackson has been photographing since college and has had his work displayed at the Hubbard Museum and several museums in Santa Fe. Jackson’s photographs are inspired by the drives he takes and how the light hits various things he sees. He says he will return to next year’s art show depending on the work he captures beforehand since he says he doesn’t like to use old work.

Karl Franklin, originally from California, recently moved to Roswell. He entered his oil painting “The Commute.” Franklin is no stranger to juried art shows. He has frequently shown his work in museums in southern California.

This year’s show is expected to be an extravagant display of talented artists’ hard work. The event will open with a gala reception Thursday, Aug. 8, and will begin at 6:30 p.m. and there will also be a presentation of awards. The exhibition will continue through Sunday, Aug. 28, during regular museum hours; Monday through Saturday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays 1 to 5 p.m. This entire event is free and open to the public. This event is sponsored in part by the City of Roswell Lodger’s Tax Fund and the Xcel Energy Foundation. For more information call 622-4985.

Lack of communication source of marital trouble

QUESTION: My wife has moved out and our communication is strained. Can you give me advice on how I can try to reconcile with her?

Juli: It is difficult to give specific advice without knowing some background about your situation. However, here are some basic principles to consider if you are serious about wanting to win your wife back.

Ask her to clearly communicate what has caused her to leave. She probably feels like she has told you 100 times what the issue is, but have you ever really listened? You will naturally want to be defensive and explain why her complaint is no big deal and how she has done hurtful things to you, too. Now is not the time for that. Don’t respond other than to ask clarifying questions. Take home the information she has given

you to think and pray about, and perhaps sort through it with a counselor.

Take responsibility for your part in the split. Remember that even if your intention was not to hurt her, you have.

The next step is to let her know you are committed for the long haul. Your wife will be skeptical if you make big gestures and commitments to her that don’t stand the test of time.

If you want to win her back, show her love consistently, even if she doesn’t respond right away. If she sets boundaries regarding how much she wants to communicate, respect those. Even so, let her know that you are willing to wait.

A strong marriage is made up of not just the good parts of sharing love, but patience and unrelenting love when a crisis like

yours hits.

QUESTION: Our son is very athletic, but I’m afraid he may be overdoing it. He goes out for soccer in the fall and baseball in the spring, and also plays in various summer leagues.

He’s only a sophomore, but he’s already experienced broken arms and numerous sprains. Should we ask him to tone it down?

Jim: I had my share of youthful sports injuries, and I have the scars to prove it. When I was 13, I played a game of catch with an extended family member who also happened to pitch

for the California Angels’ farm team. One of his fastballs “went wild,” as they say, and impacted squarely with the left side of my face. I spent two weeks in the hospital with a broken nose, cheekbone, eye socket, and jaw, and a fractured skull. To this day, the left side of my face is still numb as a result of reconstructive surgery.

By the time I was a senior in high school, football had become my primary passion. But my dreams of gridiron glory ended with a broken collar bone.

But the U.S. Board on Geographic Names said federal policy is to avoid adding names to peaks in

federal wilderness areas, and Mount Sopris, a majestic volcanic summit west of Aspen, is in one.

Littleton resident J.P. McDaniel said she has thousands of signatures supporting her idea to name the east peak of the 12,965-foot mountain after Denver. She’s sending application documents to the geographic names board, which is based in

Reston, Va. A review process could take up to a year.

McDaniel said she chose the mountain’s east peak because Denver wrote “Rocky Mountain High” at Williams Lake, on the east side of Mount Sopris, which was named after Richard Sopris, an early Denver mayor who led a prospecting expedition nearby.

American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons found that young people are facing more serious sports injuries than ever before: torn ligaments, dislocated shoulders, neck and knee injuries, and strained muscles and joints. We’re not talking about the NFL or Major League Baseball here ... this is all from high school sports!

I’m not slamming youth sports. It would be a shame to prohibit your son from participating in athletic activities that he enjoys and in which he clearly excels. But you might encourage him to find a balance between sports and other less physically demanding activities.

Rather than being involved in sports year-round, perhaps he can be persuaded to take a season off to pursue the debate team.

teens his age feel indestructible. But even though they’re young and energetic, teens’ bodies need time to rest and recuperate.

It’s also in the Maroon Bells-Snowmass Wilderness Area, which poses a problem. The geographic board’s executive secretary, Lou Yost, said that under the board’s interpretation of the Wilderness Act of 1964, applying new names to features in wilderness areas detracts from the wilderness experience.

The Silica has an important role in treating skin conditions with its exfoliating and deep-cleansing ef fects. Recent research shows that Blue Lagoon Silica strengthens the skin barrier function. Healthy functioning of the skin barrier is one of the key elements in maintaining healthy and radiant skin.

Obama sets sights on rural America to talk jobs Roswell Daily Record

President Barack Obama speaks Thursday in Holland, Mich., about the economy.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Trading Washington’s hot house for states critical to his re-election prospects, President Barack Obama is headed to the Midwest after a summer of discontent over a protracted debt showdown with Republicans and the downgrade in the nation’s credit rating.

Obama’s bus tour, his first as president, begins Monday and will take him to prairie communities in Minnesota and through Iowa and Illinois, with stops in the farmland and rural towns that launched his first White House bid.

The former Illinois senator is expected to tell audiences that he agrees with their frustrations about a dysfunctional federal government.

“What we’ve seen in Washington the last few months has been the worst kind of partisanship, the worst kind of gridlock — and that gridlock has undermined public confidence and impeded our efforts to take the steps we need for our economy,” Obama said Thursday in Michigan. “It’s made things worse instead of better.”

sweep in 2008 of Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois and Michigan, a region that has supported Democratic presidential candidates since 2000, except for President George W. Bush’s narrow victory in Iowa in 2004.

But Obama’s standing in these states, like elsewhere, has grown precarious as the economy has slumped.

Republican governors are now in charge in three of those five states and Obama’s approval rating, as measured by Gallup, is hovering around 50 percent in most of the region.

Cell phone shutdown

Safety issue, or hint of Orwell?

Commuters enter and exit a Bay Area Rapid Transit station in San Francisco's financial district in this 1997 file photo.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — An illegal, Orwellian violation of free-speech rights?

Or just a smart tactic to protect train passengers’ safety from rowdy would-be demonstrators during a busy evening commute?

The question resonated Saturday in San Francisco and beyond as details emerged of Bay Area Rapid Transit officials’ decision to cut off underground cell phone service for a few hours at some stations Thursday. Commuters at stations from downtown to the city’s main airport were affected as BART officials sought to tactically thwart a planned protest over the recent fatal shooting of a 45-year-old man by transit police.

Two days later, the move had civil rights and legal experts questioning the agency’s move, and drew backlash from one transit board member who was taken aback by the decision.

“I’m just shocked that they didn’t think about the implications of this. We really don’t have the right to be this type of censor,” said L ynette Sweet, who serves on BART board. “In my opinion, we’ve let the actions of a few people affect everybody. And that’s not fair.”

Similar questions of censorship have arisen in recently days as Britain’s government put the idea of curbing social media services on the table in response to several nights of widespread looting and violence in London and other English cities. Police claim that young criminals used Twitter and Blackberry instant messages to coordinate looting sprees in riots.

Prime Minister David Cameron said that the government, spy agencies and the communications industry are looking at whether there should be limits on the use of social media sites like Twitter and Facebook or services like BlackBerry Messenger to spread disorder. The suggestions

have met with outrage — with some critics comparing Cameron to the despots ousted during the Arab Spring.

In the San Francisco instance, Sweet said BART board members were told by the agency of its decision during the closed portion of its meeting Thursday afternoon, less than three hours before the protest was scheduled to start.

“It was almost like an after-thought,” Sweet told The Associated Press. “This is a land of free speech and for us to think we can do that shows we’ve grown well beyond the business of what we’re supposed to be doing and that’s providing transportation. Not censorship.”

But was it truly censorship? Channels of communication were cut off for everyone at a given station, not just those whose speech the transit authority was trying to impede.

And beyond that, there are legal nuances to consider, including whether under the law BART is considered a government agency — a key component in deciding if censorship.

These situations are largely new ones, of course.

A couple of decades ago, during the fax-machine and pay-phone era, the notion of people organizing mass gatherings in real time on wireless devices would have been fantasy.

BAR T Deputy Police Chief Benson Fairow said that, for his agency, the issue boiled down simply to one of public safety.

“It wasn’t a decision made lightly. This wasn’t about free speech. It was about safety,” Fairow told KTVU-TV on Friday.

But like in London, BART’s tactic drew immediate comparisons to authoritarianism, including acts by the former president of Egypt to squelch protests demanding an end to his rule. Authorities there cut Inter net and cell phone services in the country for days earlier this year. He

left office shortly thereafter “BART officials are showing themselves to be of a mind with the former president of Egypt, Hosni Mubarak,” the Electronic Frontier Foundation said on its website. Echoing that comparison, vigorous weekend discussion on Twitter was labeled with the hashtag “muBARTek.” Aaron Caplan, a professor at Loyola Law School in Los Angeles who specializes in free-speech issues, was equally critical, saying BAR T clearly violated the rights of demonstrators and other passengers.

“We can arrest and prosecute people for the crimes

they commit,” he said. “You are not allowed to shut down people’s cell phones and prevent them from speaking because you think they might commit a crime in the future.”

Michael Risher, the American Civil Liberty Union’s Northern California staff attorney echoed the sentiment in a blog: “The government shouldn’t be in the business of cutting off the free flow of information.

Shutting down access to mobile phones is the wrong response to political protests, whether it’s halfway around the world or right here in San Francisco.”

“We got a president who got a decrease in the credit rating of our nation, and that’s because our president simply doesn’t understand how to lead and how to grow an economy,” Republican hopeful Mitt Romney said in Thursday’s Iowa debate.

Romney and his GOP rivals blamed Obama for the growth of the federal deficit and the credit downgrade by Standard and Poor’s, the first in the nation’s history.

The GOP race is intensifying with Texas Gov. Rick Perry’s entry Saturday.

When Obama arrives at a town hall meeting in Decorah, Iowa, on Monday afternoon, Perry intends to meet with voters in eastern Iowa, about 100 miles away.

Nationally, Obama’s approval rating is comparable to President Ronald Reagan’s ratings in August 1983. But recent Gallup polls found that Obama’s approval rating was hovering between 44 percent and 49 percent in 10 states closely watched by his political advisers. Those states include Iowa, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Florida.

Nobel winner Yunus promotes social business

WASHINGTON (AP) — The bruising dispute with Bangladesh’s government that saw Muhammad Yunus ousted as chief of the Grameen Bank has not diminished the Nobel laureate’s enthusiasm for business projects to help the Asian nation’s poor.

Cellphones, drinking water, yogurt for malnourished children and solar power for rural homes are all part of the dizzying network of Grameen initiatives. Yunus chairs the board of many of them despite being forced out as the bank’s managing director in May. Yunus was in Washington this week beating the drum for his concept of “social businesses” that aim to find commercially viable ways of tackling poverty.

He received a hero’s welcome Friday at a conference of development specialists. On Thursday, he met Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Such praise is a far cry from the the bumpy ride he’s had this year at home, where Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has accused Grameen Bank and other microfinance institutions of charging exorbitant interest and “sucking blood from the poor borrowers.”

Still, Yunus, who obtained his economics doctorate in the United States then returned to Bangladesh after its bloody 1971 war for independence, has no plans to leave his homeland.

“Not a chance,” he told The Associated Press.

In 1983, he founded the Grameen Bank, pioneering the idea of issuing small loans to the poor, which has been replicated around the world. The work earned him and the bank the 2006 Nobel Peace Prize. The bank now has about 9 million borrowers in Bangladesh, virtually all women.

But in March, the central bank removed the 71year-old as Grameen’s managing director for violating government retirement regulations, which he disputes. Despite expressions of concern from the United States and a group of elder international statesmen over Bangladesh’s treatment of Yunus, he was left with no choice but to comply with the order after the nation’s Supreme Court upheld it.

Yunus has long had frosty relations with Hasina.

She was reportedly angered by Yunus’ 2007 attempt to form his own political party, backed by the powerful army, when the country was under a state of emergency and Hasina herself was behind bars. A Bangladesh government-appointed investigation in April found that Grameen Bank violated its charter as a microlender by creating affiliates that did not benefit the bank’s shareholders, and recommended the government integrate those affiliates with the bank. Yunus maintains these social businesses are independent and should remain so.

Eras clash on Nevada’s Comstock VIRGINIA CITY, Nev. (AP) — More than 150 years after the discovery of one of the world’s richest silver veins touched off a mining frenzy that drew thousands of people west and made Virginia City a wealthy boomtown, a mining company wants to resume digging for riches in the dusty hills southeast of Reno.

But unlike the scrappy miners who used picks and shovels to chisel away at the massive, underground pocket of silver and gold known as the Comstock Lode, the company’s plans are for open pit mining. They aren’t being met with open arms.

Residents in the historic Comstock region embrace the catacombs of century-old mines with pride and purpose. But these days, it’s not wealth from gold and silver but the mining of tourists lured by the rich history of the Old West that keep the town humming.

Tours are conducted in an old underground mine beneath a saloon, and The Way It Was Museum displays artifacts from the past. Camel and outhouse races and a Rocky Mountain oyster festival keep tourists coming to take a “Step Back in Time” — the region’s marketing slogan.

Residents fear that Virginia City image is threatened by the Comstock Mining Co.’s proposal to use earth-moving machinery to dig up truckloads of earth and process the loads to extract flecks of the minerals that have reached record prices.

With the stock market fluctuating wildly, the price of gold soared lastl week, setting new records — $1,800 an ounce on Wednesday, for example.

Using high-tech modern mapping techniques and historic records, the company says it has identified roughly $2.8 billion in gold, if prices hold around $1,750 per ounce. That’s roughly double the price the company estimated was needed to make the venture profitable.

Doug McQuide, Comstock public relations director, said the company hopes to begin production sometime this year.

Comstock thinks modern mining can coexist with history and complement the tourist trade, he said.

The company purchased the historic Gold Hill Hotel, and has invested in shoring up old mill sites to preserve the region’s history. “We want to be overwhelmingly supported” by the community, McQuide said.

But it has been a tough sell.

For many folks in Virginia City, Gold Hill and Silver City, the idea of open pit mining in this state and national historic district is repugnant.

“Mining does work for Nevada,” said Daan Eggenberger, proprietor of the restored Tahoe House Hotel, an antique-laden lodge on Virginia City’s main drag. “It just doesn’t work in a historic district.”

The National Trust for Historic Preservation named Virginia City to its 2009 list of a dozen “Distinctive Destinations” across the country. The historic mining boomtown still boasts mines, mansions, saloons and museums that provide a glimpse into frontier life.

Founded with the discovery of the Comstock Lode in 1859, Vir-

In this July 25 photo, the area is seen where Comstock Mining Inc. wants to begin it's "starter mine," on the site shown near Gold Hill, Nev. Below, Doug McQuide, of Comstock Mining, explains the company's plans for open pit mining. ginia City made so many millionaires that the town was called the “richest place on earth.”

The wealth it generated helped finance the Union cause during the Civil War and to build San Francisco and the Bay area.

Mining has come and gone in the Gold Canyon region since the lode played out. Tailing piles that have stood for decades at old mill sites dot the mountainsides.

In Gold Hill and Silver City, tiny towns a few miles down a twisting highway from Virginia City, residents say their serenity was disturbed last fall when Comstock Mining renewed exploration drilling at an existing site and disclosed it had begun exploration on parts of mining claims it has acquired covering 6,100 acres. Of that, about 1,000 acres is on private property; the rest is public land.

Residents formed the Comstock Residents Association to fight the company’s plan.

Storey County Sheriff Gerald Antinoro understands the dispute.

From a bluff outside his front door, he overlooks a canyon to the hills on the other side where heavy equipment has carved a dirt road up the steep slope. For a time, a test drill was erected a stone’s throw from his front door.

He hears the engines, the warning backup beeps, sees the dust.

He’s not against mining.

“I’m not an opponent and I’m not a proponent,” Antinoro said.

But he’s unsatisfied with the company response when he asks how the landscape will be restored once the gold and silver play out.

“They’ve told me several different things and I’ve yet to hear a plan,” Antinoro said. “Hopefully they’ll come up with something pretty soon.”

Comstock Mining has applied to Storey County for a special use permit to expand its exploration drilling. A five-hour hearing on that application drew an overflowing, heavily anti-mining crowd on July 7. The hearing continues

Aug. 18.

Corrado De Gasperis, Comstock president and chief executive officer, tried to assure residents and planning commissioners the company wants to be good neighbors.

“We care very much about the rich mining and natural history of the Comstock,” he said. “We want to be judged by our actions.”

Robin Cobbey, 62, who lives with her husband David Toll in Gold Hill, presented the planning commission with a petition signed by more than 300 opponents.

“One thing is clear is that the residents of the area don’t want this,” Cobbey said. “You can’t mitigate an open pit mine that’s 800 feet deep and a quarter-mile wide.

It’s there forever.”

Signs have sprung up around town reading, “No Open Pit.” McQuide said the company’s plan is to begin with a “starter mine,” a pit of about 30 acres and roughly 250 feet deep, but he said there’s no plan to excavate the entire region.

Underground mining techniques would be used to mine areas near Virginia City and Gold Hill, he said.

Of the total acreage, “probably less than 10 percent is envisioned as even targeted for pit mining,” McQuide said.

Said hotel proprietor Eggenberger, 65, “Our community has a vibrant tourist economy. They’re looking to destroy that. Spare me the grief of you telling me you’re going to revitalize the Comstock.”

Residents also question how mining can be allowed in a region that includes Superfund sites designated in 1990. They want extensive environmental studies.

The state has issued a permit for mercury emissions controls.

Another general air quality permit is pending. But officials said the state lacks authority to require a full environmental study, something that would be required to mine on federal lands. So far, all of Comstock’s activities, except for some exploration, are on private lands.

Behre Dolbear, a worldwide mining technical consulting group, said the Comstock project could conceivably double the precious metals it has estimated.

But that doesn’t sway opponents.

“Virginia City is a changed place now, it’s a tourism destination,” said Chris Chrystal, recently retired from the Nevada Commission on Tourism. “It would not be a good idea to hurt one economic contributor for the gain of another.”

Tough for gay members to return to full military

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Former Air Force of ficer Michael Almy’s five-year battle to get back into the military after being discharged for being gay is still far from over despite the end of the policy that halted the decorated war veteran’s 13-year career and left him curled up on his bathroom floor, crying.

The repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell” coincides with the most competitive time in recent history to get into the military because of the sluggish economy, and the Defense Department says it has no plans to give priority to those discharged for being gay, even if they still meet the military’s age limits, fitness standards and cutoffs for time out of service.

Many, like Almy, a 41year -old former Air Force major, see the only way back to active-duty as being through the courts.

He and two other discharged of ficers — one from the Air Force officer and one from the Navy — are suing the Justice Department to demand they be reinstated, and they hope a federal appeals court will help their efforts by upholding a lower court ruling last year that declared the law unconstitutional.

Activists believe if the ruling stands it could open the legal doors for a classaction suit or settlement for many of the nearly 14,000 military members discharged under the nearly 18-year-old policy that prohibited the military from asking about the sexual orientation of service members but required discharge of those who acknowledged being gay or were discovered to be engaging in homosexual activity.

“The sad truth is repeal really does nothing for people thrown out of the military,” Almy said. “There is no restitution, no reparations, no special personnel process to help those to get back in the military who were thrown out.”

Almy said he never admitted to the military he was gay, but was discharged under the policy in 2006 after a service member snooped through his emails on a governmentissued computer in Iraq when Almy’s deployment there ended. Almy testified for the Log Cabin Republicans at a trial last year.

U.S. District Judge Virginia Phillips temporarily halted the policy after the trial, declaring the law violated the constitutional free speech and due process rights of gay military members.

Heavy clashes as Libyan rebels enter Zawiya

AP Photo

Libyan rebels are seen in the back of a pick-up truck headed for the frontline near Zawiya in western Libya, Saturday.

BIR SHAEB, Libya (AP) — Libyan rebels fought their way into the strategic city of Zawiya west of Tripoli on Saturday in their most significant advance in months, battling snipers on rooftops and heavy shelling from Moammar Gadhafi’s forces holding the city.

Zawiya, 30 miles (50 kilometers) from the capital, is a key target for rebels waging a new of fensive launched from the mountains in the far west of Libya, an attempt to break the deadlock in combat between the two sides that has held for months in the center and east of the country.

A credible threat from the rebels in the west could strain Gadhafi’s troops, which have been hammered for months by NATO airstrikes.

Defending Zawiya is key for the regime but could require bringing in better trained forces who are currently ensuring its hold over its Tripoli stronghold or fighting rebels on fronts further east.

A group of about 200 exuberant rebel fighters, advancing from the south, reached a bridge on Zawiya’s

southwestern outskirts, and some rebels pushed farther into the city’s central main square. They tore down the green flag of Gadhafi’s regime from a mosque minaret and put up two rebel flags. An Associated Press reporter traveling with the rebels saw hundreds of residents rush into the streets, greeting the fighters piled into the backs of pickup trucks with chants of “God is great.”

Gadhafi’s forces then counterattacked with a barrage of heavy weapons, and the loud crackle of gunfire could be heard as rebels and government troops battled.

Regime snipers were firing down from rooftops on the rebels, said one resident, Abdel-Basset Abu Riyak, who joined to fight alongside the rebels when they entered the city. He said Gadhafi’s forces were holed up in several pockets in the city and that there were reports of reinforcements coming from Tripoli, though there was no sign of them yet.

Rebel spokesman Jumma Ibrahim claimed that the opposition’s fighters controlled most of Zawiya by night-

fall. “What remains are few pockets (of Gadhafi forces) in the city,” he said. “The road is now open all the way from the western mountains to Zawiya, we can send them supply and reinforcement anytime.”

Perhaps more importantly,the rebels now control the main highway linking Tripoli to the Tunisian boarder, according to Fadlallah Haroun, the head of the rebels’ security council in Benghazi. The road passes through Zawiya.

Zawiya’s residents rose up and threw off regime control when Libya’s anti-Gadhafi revolt first began in February. But Gadhafi’s forces retaliated and crushed opposition in the city in a long and bloody siege in March.

Many of Zawiya’s rebels fled into the mountains — and were among the lead forces advancing on the city Saturday — while others like Abu Riyak remained in the city, lying low.

Speaking to the AP by telephone, Abu Riyak said residents were now joining up with the rebels’ assault, saying, “95 percent of Zawiya’s people are with the revolution.”

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: My friend "Sarah" is married to "Karl," who emotionally abuses her. My husband and I used to spend a lot of time with them, but we have gradually dropped Karl from our circle because we can't tolerate the way he treats her.

Sarah has asked me not to drop her because she has very few friends left. She stays with Karl because she's afraid she'll lose too much financially if they divorce. I have tried to tell her that her happiness should outweigh her desire for material things, but she likes living in her fancy home.

Karl hasn't worked in almost 10 years and does nothing but drink and belittle Sarah. He's also hostile to her adult children, who are fabulous people.

If Sarah wants to see her grandchildren, she goes to their home because he doesn't want them around. Abby, this is a career woman who could retire in a few years but probably won't because her work is her escape.

I think Sarah is living a miserable existence. She deserves so much more. I know I'm not being as good a friend as I can be -- and I feel guilty -- but I have lost respect for her. I'm sick of hearing how "he's trying to be better." It's hard to watch someone who chooses to live her one life this way. How can we support her when we can't stand her spouse or understand her reason for staying in a loveless marriage?

hit that a divorce would cause.

Your friend could use both counseling and legal advice, and if you care about her, you should suggest it. But other than that, if you want to remain friends, my advice is to stop judging her.

DEAR ABBY: I suffered from severe depression and low self-esteem when I was younger. Because I didn't have the coping mechanisms to deal with what I was going through, I starved and cut myself.

I got treatment, gained weight and stopped cutting. I'm 30 now, married and much happier. I'm at a healthy weight, so my past eating disorder is no longer obvious. But the scars I bear from the selfinjury can be seen from across a room. I dress modestly to cover them most of the time, but I don't want to wear long sleeves and pants for the rest of my life out of fear of what people might say.

I'd like to wear a swimsuit or tank tops in the summer, but I have no idea how to address the stares and questions that would go along with that. How do you advise me to deal with the reaction of others to my scars? I don't necessarily want to discuss my past depression.

WAY BEYOND IT NOW IN OREGON DEAR WAY BEYOND IT: Because your scars are so noticeable, my advice is to be honest. An alternative might be to wear sun-protective jackets when you're not in the water, which more and more smart people do these days to avoid sun damage.

However, because you do not wish to cover up, you will have to deal with the inevitable questions. How much you choose to reveal would depend upon who is asking. You don't have to share intimate details with a stranger. A way to deflect it would be to respond, "That's very personal and I'd rather not discuss it." However, if someone you know is asking out of concern, you might handle it by saying: "When I was a teenager I became depressed and cut myself. But that was a long time ago."

AMR moves closer to Eagle spinoff C6 Sunday, August 14, 2011

SUNDAY BUSINESS

Company declined to say

if there were any offers to buy Eagle, but expect deal to be complete by Jan. 2012

DALLAS (AP) — The parent of American Airlines is one step closer to spinning off regional airline American Eagle as a separate company.

AMR Corp. described terms of the spin-off to AMR shareholders in a regulatory filing Thursday. It expects to complete the deal by year-end.

AMR tried to sell or spin of f Eagle in 2007 but dropped those plans a year later when recordhigh fuel prices and the recession cut the value of regional airlines. It revived the plans last year.

Company officials declined to say Thursday whether they received any offers to buy Eagle.

Eagle operates shorter flights and connects passengers from secondary airports to American Airlines flights at hub airports. AMR thinks it can save money by putting that service up for bidding between Eagle and other regional airlines.

Eagle would operate regional flights for American for nine years after the spin-off, according to an AMR filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Eagle had revenue last year of $1.2 billion, a tiny part of AMR’s total of $22.2 billion. It operates 281 planes and 1,650 daily flights.

AMR says Eagle would transfer jets to American and lease them

While American uses an inhouse company for regional flying, most other large U.S. airlines contract with independent operators such as Pinnacle Airlines Corp. and SkyWest Inc. Dan Garton, the longtime AMR executive now leading Eagle, said consumers won’t notice a differ-

ence from the Eagle spinoff. He said American will still pick routes and set fares and service.

“The vast majority of the regional airline business already operates in this manner,” Garton said. “When you walk on an airplane, it says, ‘United Express operated by’ and some fine print (naming the operator). That’s the direction we’re going.”

As an independent company, Eagle should be stronger because

it will be able to bid for work with other airlines besides American, Garton added.

Ray Neidl, an analyst with Maxim Group LLC, said expensive jet fuel has hurt regional airlines and made Eagle a growing financial burden on AMR.

Italy to slash political jobs in new austerity

AP Photo

Italian Premier Silvio Berluconi reacts during a press conference at the end of a Cabinet Ministers meeting on the approval of the new austerity measures, in Rome, Friday.

ROME (AP) — Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi predicted Saturday his government’s emergency austerity package — which raises taxes, cuts political jobs and consolidates small towns — would quickly be passed by parliament.

Berlusconi also said the $64.8 billion package won praise by European leaders including German Chancellor Angela Merkel and by the European Central Bank.

“I have received great appreciation,” Berlusconi told the ANSA news agency, saying he had spoken with Merkel and ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet earlier in the day. “It was not just the Italian position to be in question — the euro was in question, therefore Europe itself.”

Berlusconi’s comments on Merkel were confirmed

by Berlin.

“The chancellor has made positive and appreciative remarks on the Italian austerity package,” a Ger man gover nment spokesman said, declining to be named in line with government policy.

Roswell Daily Record

The package — a mix of spending cuts and tax increases, including a “solidarity tax” for high-earners — aims to calm market turmoil and make sure Italy is not the next victim of Europe’s debt crisis.

It looks to raise 20 billion euro next year and 25.5 billion euro in 2013, but analysts say it is not clear if it will spur Italy’s low growth.

Italy is expected to grow only by about 1 percent this year and has one of the highest debts in the 17nation eurozone. The European Central Bank last week began buying Italian and Spanish bonds to try to stop those countries’ borrowing costs from soaring.

The news measures were passed in an emergency decree approved by the Cabinet on Friday evening, after days of frantic negotiations. The decree is effective immediately but must be turned into law by parliament within 60 days.

“I believe it is going to be a safe journey,” Berlusconi was quoted as saying by ANSA. He said that some

difficulty may arise as lawmakers may resist cuts to administrative jobs and perks.

Those cuts are prominent in the package, which was passed at a time of widespread discontent among citizens over the generous salaries and benefits enjoyed by Italy’s political elite.

Cabinet Minister Roberto Calderoli promised Saturday the number of national lawmakers, currently almost 1,000, would be halved — though this requires a lengthy constitutional process.

He said provincial administrations for towns with less than 300,000 residents or smaller than 1,160 sq. miles will be abolished.

Provincial administrations — inbetween municipalities and regions — are seen by many as redundant and expensive.

While the exact number will be determined by a fall census, the measure is expected to affect between 29 and 35 provincial governments, Calderoli said.

Newspaper La Repubblica

said these include Siena, T rieste and Prato, an important business center outside Florence.

Towns with fewer than 1,000 residents will merge with larger communities, a change that affects about 1,970 out of Italy’s 8,094 municipalities, according to the government.

These cuts mean about 5,000 elected jobs will be slashed, plus several thousand related jobs, Calderoli said. The measures take effect at the next local elections.

The issue of excessive administration has been a mainstay of the Italian political debate for years.

But citizens have expressed new outrage recently that Italy’s political class has spared itself from cuts it demanded of others.

Some critics said the measures didn’t go far enough, others said they targeted mostly local administrations.

However, national lawmakers saw their “solidarity tax” double compared to other citizens, who face a 5 percent additional tax on income above $128,250 and a 10 percent additional tax on income above $213,750.

Italy already passed a $99 billion austerity package last month, but the financial situation has deteriorated significantly since then. Under intense pressure from the European Central Bank and eurozone leaders, the government agreed to speed its goal of balancing the budget to 2013 instead of 2014, and to come up with structural reforms that stimulate investment and growth.

The new package will be taken up by a Senate commission on Aug. 22, and then be discussed by the whole house early September. It must also be

approved by the lower chamber.

Berlusconi’s conservative forces control both houses.

While most of the opposition has criticized the package as unfair, some have praised elements of it.

Some resistance might come from outside of parliament, too, with Italy’s largest union, CGIL, threatening a mobilization against what it calls as an attack on labor and the pension system.

The new package also includes plans for the liberalization of local services, such as trash collection or transport. It also seeks to open up the country’s rigid labor market by allowing more room for direct negotiations between companies and unions in areas now regulated by the national contract. It promises to crack down on businesses or professionals who do not issue a receipt —a practice so common that customers now are sometimes offered either a discount or the receipt.

Some analysts fear that the belt-tightening measure will leave many Italians too cash-strapped to spend and ultimately hurt the country’s growth prospects.

Italian Finance Minister Giulio Tremonti said the economic impact of some of these reforms might be significant but for now Italy is not revising its economic growth forecasts.

He also repeated his stance in favor of the creation of Eurobonds, saying such a tool would be the best solution to the crisis engulfing the eurozone.

“We wouldn’t have gotten here if we had had Eurobonds,” Tremonti told reporters. He called for more “integration and consolidation of public finances in Europe.”

Principal of Fidelity Mortgage James Pulsipher received 1,785,714 shares of common stock of PSMH for his equity in Fidelity Mortgage, and will also sit on the board of directors of UCMC. Fidelity Mortgage has been doing business in Grand Junction since 1986, and Pulsipher will continue to lead the Grand Junction mortgage operation for PSMI.

NATION Federal judge throws out Obama drilling rules

CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) — A judge on Friday threw out Obama administration rules that sought to slow down expedited environmental review of oil and gas drilling on federal land.

U.S. District Judge Nancy Freudenthal ruled in favor of a petroleum industry group, the Wester n Energy Alliance, in its lawsuit against the federal government, including Interior Secretary Ken Salazar.

The ruling reinstates Bush-era expedited oil and gas drilling under provisions called categorical exclusions on federal lands nationwide, Freudenthal said. gover nment The argued that oil and gas companies had no case because they didn’t show how the new rules, implemented by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management and U.S. Forest Service last year, had created delays and added to the cost of drilling.

Freudenthal rejected that argument.

“Western Energy has demonstrated through its members recognizable injury,” she said.

“Those injuries are supported by the administrative record.”

Powertech writes down $2.3M tied to Colo. land

FORT COLLINS, Colo.

(AP) — Powertech Uranium Corp. has written off $2.3 million it lost when a land deal connected with its plans to mine uranium in norther n Colorado fell through.

The Canadian company had the option to purchase 3,585 acres from Howard and Donna Diehl of Carr and Thomas and Dianna Varra of Nunn for $11.45 million but opted to focus its resources on plans to mine in South Dakota instead.

The Coloradoan reports the company said in a filing with Canadian regulators that it was writing down all historical charges associated with the option agreements in the amount of $2.3 million. The company has said it is still interested in working with the landowners to develop uranium on their property.

Rapper could face charges tied to flash mob LOS ANGELES (AP) — A rapper could face criminal charges after a tweet from his account incited a telephone flash mob that overwhelmed the emergency phone system at one of busiest stations of the Los Angeles County sheriff’s department, the agency said Saturday.

The sherif f’s department alleges the Game tweeted the phone number of the Compton station Friday and told his 580,000 followers to call the number if they wanted an internship.

The southeast LA County station’s phones started ringing Friday evening, and the lines were jammed for more than two hours. During that time people with legitimate issues that included a missing person,

spousal abuse and two robberies were also trying to call in, department spokesman Steve Whitmore said.

The rapper later posted that his account had been hacked but also tweeted that it was an accident.

“Yall can track a tweet down but cant solve murders!” the tweet said. “Dat was an accident but maybe now yall can actually do yall job !!!!”

A call and email to The Game’s publicist, Greg Miller at Big Hassle Media, was not immediately returned.

Investigators will document what happened and turn over the information to the district attor ney’s of fice by Monday, Whitmore said. The rapper could face obstruction of justice or other charges related to

delaying a peace officer from doing their job, he said.

“The most important thing for the sheriff’s department is that anything that stands in the way of us doing our job we take very seriously and we need to look at,” Whitmore said. “You’ve got a guy who posts on a social media site the phone number of a sheriff’s station. We want to get the word out ’Don’t do that,’ obviously.”

The Game is a Califor niabased rapper whose 2005 debut album, “The Documentary,” entered the charts at the top and sold 586,000 units in the first week, according to his website. The rapper, who grew up in Compton, has collaborated with famed rappers including Dr. Dre, Kanye West and 50 Cent.

3 Doors Down gets introspective on new album NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Multi-platinum rock band 3 Doors Down is moving forward by looking back.

“The title of this album really kind of hits it on the head, ‘Time of My Life.’ It talks about a lot of things that went on in the past,” lead singer Brad Arnold said in a recent interview.

“But it talks about a lot of more lighthearted things as well, and (there’s) a lot of fun songs on this record, too.”

The band had a long history to pull from for this effort. Most of them have known each other for more than 20 years, having grown up together in Mississippi and officially for ming in 1995. Their debut album, 2000’s “The Better Life”, featured the song “Kryptonite” and sold six million copies.

In many ways the group (comprised of Arnold, lead guitarist Matt Roberts, bassist Todd Harrell, guitarist Chris Henderson and drummer Greg Upchurch) wanted to get back to that initial feeling from their early years.

“This being our fifth record, it is really similar to our first record in a lot of ways in that we really approached it with kind of new eyes. ... with a good heart and hungry hearts and ready to do something new,” Arnold said of the album, released last month.

“We did things that we normally wouldn’t do in the past, and it shows,” said Harrell. “You know how every band in their career has that one record, like Rush has

‘Moving Pictures,’ and Def Leppard has ‘Hysteria’? I think this is our record. I think this is it, because it’s by far, to me, the best record we’ve ever done.”

The album’s leadof f song, “When You’re Young,” became the band’s 10th top 10 single on the mainstream rock chart.

“I think this song strikes a chord with fans, because everybody can relate to how hard it is to be young, whether you’re presently young or whether you’re just looking back on how hard it really was,” said Arnold.

“This song in a way is a mockery of how easy people think it is sometimes

‘Lone Ranger’ filming shut down over budget issues

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Walt Disney Studios’ much-anticipated big-screen adaptation of “The Lone Ranger” starring Johnny Depp and Armie Hammer has been shut down, according to a source close to the production.

Those involved in the project are figuring out their next steps, and it’s possible filming could resume, said the source, who was not authorized to speak publicly about the discussions and requested anonymity.

The development was first reported in Deadline Hollywood, an entertainment industry news website. It cited difficulties with reducing the movie’s estimated $250 million cost to $200 million.

and how easy people talk about how it is to be young.”

At age 32, Arnold said he thinks of his band mates as brothers. Harrell, 39, agreed and said he feels that 3 Doors Down is finally coming into its own.

“I think the band right now as a whole is proba-

bly better than it’s been ever. I think we’re all a lot tighter,” Harrell said. “If you do something as long as we’ve done it, you can’t help but get better at it, you know?”

“As far as where we’re at in our lives, I think the band’s all great. Everybody’s in a good spot right now, and we’re just hav-

ing fun. We’re ready to go out and have a lot of fun with the fans,” he added.

3 Doors Down are currently on a U.S. tour through October. They just released a new single, “Every Time You Go,” and the music video features footage from their European tour earlier this summer.

Arriving at the Imagen Awards

Jerry Bruckheimer was set to produce the film with a script by Justin Haythe.

Hammer was expected to play the title character, and Depp was set to be the Lone Ranger’s partner, Tonto.

The Lone Ranger show — about a masked Texas Ranger who battles injustice in the Old West — first aired on radio in the 1930s and became a hit TV series during the 1950s. The movie adaptation was scheduled to be released Dec. 21, 2012.

The film would bring together Depp and Bruckheimer, who have collaborated on the wildly successful “Pirates of the Caribbean” franchise. That franchise has raked in billions of dollars in worldwide box office sales for Disney.

Baldwin, wife dropping divorce filings LAKE OSWEGO, Ore. (AP) — Daniel Baldwin’s wife says the couple is attempting to reconcile and is dropping divorce filings.

Joanne Baldwin told The Oregonian on Friday that “we have a lot of work to do in our marriage.” The actor filed for divorce last

month and was granted a restraining order against his 41-year-old wife.

The newspaper reports a Clackamas County court has dismissed the restraining order. Baldwin’s manager did not respond to a request for comment.

Joanne Baldwin says she is living separately from

her husband but they have joint custody of their two daughters, ages 1 and 3.

She was jailed July 13 after her husband reported she became violent when she drank and threatened to kill him. A judge gave her a 10-day sentence for violating probation on a drunken driving conviction.

Tributes planned for ex-Warrant frontman Jani Lane

LOS ANGELES (AP) — As investigators searched for clues Friday as to what killed Jani Lane, the former lead singer of the metal rock band Warrant, his family and friends prepared for a pair of memorial services to honor the rocker.

Lane, 47, was found around dead Thursday in a hotel room in the San Fernando Valley, which is north of downtown Los Angeles.

Coroner’s officials did not determine a cause of death after an autopsy Friday, but said they would wait to see the results of toxicology testing that could take up to two months.

With his long blond hair and tight leather outfits, Lane embod-

ied the excess of 1980s “hair metal” rock bands. He joined Warrant in 1984 and wrote such hits as “Heaven,” “Down Boys” and “Cherry Pie.” He had an on-and-off relationship with the band, leaving it in 1992 before returning and quitting several times. He left the band for good in 2008.

The current band will offer a tribute to Lane at a performance Friday night in Grand Forks, N.D., their publicist said.

“Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family,” the band wrote in a statement. “Jani was a very important part of our lives for a long time. We will always be incredibly proud of the music we

created together. He was a true talent and will be missed by all of us.”

His family will convene Sunday for a private memorial service, Lane’s manager and longtime friend Obi Steinman said. A public memorial with performances by fellow metal rock bands including Great White and L.A. Guns will be held in Hollywood on Aug. 24 at a venue to be announced later, he said.

“He was one of the great rockand-roll frontmen and singers of all time,” Steinman said. “His music helped shape the ’80s.”

Lane had a pair of drunken driving arrests in recent years.

Steinman said he battled alco-

holism for years.

“He finally succumbed to that,” Steinman said. “He lost his battle over alcohol.”

“Cherry Pie” became a hit record when it was released in 1990, but Lane had mixed feelings about the song over the years.

Lane wrote the song after a record executive told him they needed a radio-worthy single for Warrant’s second album. “As a joke, Jani wrote ’Cherry Pie’ overnight in a hotel room,” Steinman said.

It became the album’s title and the band and Lane’s biggest hit.

The racy music video for the song was also a hit, and Lane

married the model who starred in it, Bobbie Brown.

“He used to laugh,” Steinman said. “It was a curse and a blessing all at the same time.”

Although Lane denounced the song in the 1990s, Steinman said the rocker later embraced it, but just didn’t want it to “define his artistry.”

He spent recent years writing music for other musicians and himself, Steinman said. He also appeared in a season of VH1’s “Celebrity Fit Club.”

Lane had been married for about two years to his third wife, Kimberly, Steinman said. He has two daughters from two previous marriages.

U2 guitarist still pursuing Malibu development LOS ANGELES (AP) — The guitarist for U2 and several other property owners whose proposal to build a cluster of mansions overlooking Malibu failed to get past state regulators have filed lawsuits against the California Coastal Commission.

The lawsuits filed Friday argue that the basis for the commission's decision to deny their permits in June was not legal.

The property owners say

they are five separate owners each building a single home on separate lots, an argument that would have made it more difficult for the commission to reject their proposal.

The commission, however, determined there was enough evidence to show the project was under common ownership, coordinated and led by U2 guitarist The Edge, whose real name is David Evans.

The proposal called for

five multilevel homes of up to 12,785 square feet to be built on 156 acres in the Santa Monica Mountains.

Project designs said the homes would have the top green building certifications and the guitarist himself said the mansions would be some of the most environmentally sensitive in the world.

"When we buy property zoned for residential use, we expect to be able to build a home," said Fiona

Nelson Mandela opera comes to Johannesburg

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — A sexy dose of jazz and the refined strains of Western opera and traditional Xhosa song drive a new opera about South Africa’s former and antipresident apartheid hero Nelson Mandela.

The range of musical styles in “Mandela Trilogy” reflects South Africa’s mix of cultures, the production’s writer and director Michael Williams said in an interview before a dress rehearsal on Friday.

After preliminary runs in the eastern coastal city of Durban and the heartland town of Bloemfontein, the Cape Town Opera’s production comes to South Africa’s economic and entertainment hub Saturday.

The sweeping action of “Trilogy” moves from Mandela’s boyhood village in southeastern South Africa to the Johannesburg townships where he became a political leader and then to the prisons where he spent 27 years. Mandela is shown cheating on his wife, making political missteps and struggling with the burden of holding others’ lives in his hands.

“Mandela Trilogy” ends triumphantly, with Mandela’s 1990 release and stirring speech to a crowd in Cape Town.

The scenes in the village allow the singers to showcase the hymn-like power of African choral music. As the setting moves to Johannesburg, it’s clear that African jazz easily crossed the boundaries apartheid tried to draw between black and white, African and European. The classical sections, said Philisa Sibeko who sings the role of Mandela’s second wife, Winnie Madikizela-Mandela, draw on opera’s storytelling strengths.

“It’s visual, it’s audible, and it’s got all these emotions involved,” said Sibeko, who grew up in a Cape Town household led by her great grandmother, who conducted African choirs.

South Africans have made opera their own.

Sibeko is the second singer to take the stage as Madikizela-Mandela this year. In April, another creative team brought “Winnie the Opera” to South Africa’s national theater in Pretoria, the capital.

A South African “Carmen” opened in New York in 2004 and a film version won an award at the Berlin Film festival the next year. A South African “Magic Flute” played London’s West End in 2008.

“There is in South Africa

Hutton, spokeswoman for the property owners. "But in this case, after years of working cooperatively with the Coastal Commission and planning the most environmentally sensitive homes possible, government changed the rules and is now denying these families right to use their land."

Project opponents, however, including the National Park Service said the development would scar the

expansive ridgeline. The musician and his partners had appeased one of its staunches opponents, the Santa Monica Mountains Conservancy after agreeing to give the agency more than $1 million, dedicate nearly 100 acres to open space and provide public access to hiking trails if the homes were approved.

In the end, the majority of the commission deemed the project too environmentally destructive to allow

and voted against permitting it.

Charles Lester, acting executive director for the commission, could not directly comment on the lawsuit because they had yet to see it but said the commission had ample evidence to support its decision.

"The commission had a comprehensive presentation on this issue and felt there was a legal basis for their vote," he said.

this incredible singing tradition,” Williams said. “We have wonderful choirs here.

And opera is the next step.”

A 40-piece orchestra of Western instruments backs the singers of “Mandela Trilogy.” The music is punctuated by the clashing of the fighting sticks of the Xhosa village characters, the clanging of metal cups against prison bars, and the tapping feet of dancers performing the pantsula jazz style.

The opening scene shows Mandela in prison, but not acting like a prisoner. He meets his jailers as their equal: “May I remind you, we are not criminals, but political prisoners, jailed for our belief in a free South Africa,” he says.

In preparing to take on Mandela as an operatic figure, Williams studied biographies and delved into the official archives at the Nelson Mandela Foundation.

The set is decorated with reproductions of calendars and photographs Mandela had in prison and that now are housed at his foundation. Most in the audience won’t be able to see such details, but they show the artistic team’s determination to create a realistic atmosphere. Sets use archival footage of antiapartheid protests and a photograph of Mandela’s Robben Island prison cell projected on screens.

Williams also read histo-

ries of Johannesburg’s townships, discovering an obsession urban South African criminals in the 1950s developed for the 1948 Hollywood gangster movie “The Street with No Name.” Scenes from the movie play silently in the background during the jazz segments.

Some lyrics are taken from Mandela’s speeches and other writings. The result can sometimes seem stilted, but the words often flow poetically, as in the final scene, when Mandela and chorus sing: “We must not allow fear to stand in our way.”

Gloria Bosman dons a red crushed velvet dress to deliver a compelling performance as the South African jazz age star Dolly Radebe — once Mandela’s mistress.

“It’s information that’s documented. It’s not gossip,” she said. She added she did not believe Mandela should be seen as a god, because that might discourage others from trying to make the right choices in life despite their frailties.

Three singers portray the anti-apartheid icon as a village boy, a young revolutionary in the city, and a prisoner who is to become president.

“Mandela Trilogy” runs from Aug. 13-19 in Johannesburg. Performances are scheduled next year in Britain and Norway.

Outside Lands fest about more than music

In this June 10 photo, Win Butler of Arcade Fire performs during the Bonnaroo Music Festival in Manchester, Tenn.

NEKESA MUMBI MOODY AP MUSIC WRITER

The Outside Lands festival has acts like the Grammy-winning Arcade Fire and Muse as headliners, but co-promoter Rick Farman is just as excited about another attraction at the threeday event — its culinary delights.

“People (are) talking about what they’re going to eat and going to drink ... almost as much as what they’re going to see or hear music-wise,” he said about the event, which started Friday and wraps up Sunday.

Outside Lands, now in its fifth year, this year features acts including Erykah Badu, John Fogerty, the Arctic Monkeys and dozens more. Since its inception, the festival has played up its San Francisco food-and-wine connections. Its “Taste of the Bay” lineup includes numerous local eateries, and it also has a separate wine component.

“It was very much a part of the original plan of the event, to really incorporate some specific aspects of the Bay area culture into the event, and food

and wine were two of those top things that we focused on right off the bat,” said Farman, whose Superfly Presents is one of the two promoters of Outside Lands.

“But that said, it certainly has grown each year, and this year, sort of the vision that we had first set out for the festival has really culminated.”

Many music festivals incorporate art, food and other elements to enhance the event. Superfly Presents also puts on the Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival in Manchester, Tenn., which also has film, comedy and other attractions.

Far man said Outside Lands was inspired by the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, which incorporates that city’s famous food fare into the festival.

“We really looked to that in some ways as a mode — how could we create an event that expressed the culture of the Bay area? So I think it is something certainly festivals in general can offer music fans other than something beyond (the) music experience,” he said.
