Cristina Parker, media coordinator for the Border Network for Human Rights, said her group will include college students and workers who will talk about how immigrants

benefit from the current law.

“These will be working people who all have personal stories to share,” said Parker. “I hope that the governor gets the message that this law has helped working people.”

Somos Un Pueblo Unido hopes to draw advocates, community and religious leaders from around the

state for an “Immigrant Day of Accion” in front of the Capitol Thursday.

Police chief named interim secretary of Corrections JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

Alfono Solis Roswell’s police chief was named as New Mexico interim secretary of Corrections after Lupe Martinez resigned Friday. Martinez, 50, held the position for eight months and was the first woman to lead the state prison system. Sen. Tim Jennings, DRoswell, called Martinez an American success story after her confirmation to the Cabinet post last winter.

“I received a phone call from the governor, Friday, around two in the afternoon, saying ‘I’d like you for interim.’”

He said he had to get permission from the city to take up the temporary post. “I just happened to be driving past the city building. I told her that I’d ask and call her back. She decided to stay on the line.”

Solis said that City Administrator Larry Fry thought he was joking when he said he had the governor on the phone. I passed the phone to him.”

In the end, the chief received the blessings of both Fry and Mayor Del Jur ney. “As much as I would like you to stay here.

We are also New Mexicans and must help the state when we can.”

Solis plans to spend weekends here in Roswell and he approximates that the temporary appointment will last about 12 weeks.

Among his duties in this position will be figuring out the budget and starting a nationwide search for a per manent secretary of Corrections. “It’s a huge responsibility,” said Solis.

Other priorities include filling some of the vacanSee CHIEF Page A3

Roswell Police Chief Alfonso Solis elaborated, Monday, on the information received late Friday about the attempted murder at Goddard High School.

He said that the stabbing of a fellow student by Britanny Russell, 17, appears to have been a random act and the victim a random target. “As far as I knew there had been no previous arguments. She (the victim) just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.”

Solis said he had know idea what the motivation was for the attack.

“The wound,” he said, “was superficial. She (the student victim) stepped back so Russell just grazed the victim’s chin.”

Resource Officer Helen Cheromiah had been in another school at the time she received the call reporting the incident.

Solis commended the student for her quick thinking. “She somehow managed to divert the knife away from her face. She talked her (Russell) down. After she got the knife from the suspect, she walked her alleged assailant down to the counselor’s office.

Solis said there was no evidence to indicate that the incident was gang related.

He also complimented Cheromiah’s actions. “She’s doing a good job. She’s spread pretty thin right now. We need more resource officers. Still she was able to obtain information for the detectives before turning Russell

Dismal jobs data shakes Asian markets WASHINGTON (AP) — The dismal U.S. job market, which has intensified fears of another recession, may be even worse than the unemployment numbers suggest.

The shockwaves from the Labor Department report on Friday that employers stopped hiring in August have rippled around the world, sparking a steep retreat in Asian stock markets. The lack of hiring in the U.S. last month surprised investors — economists were expecting 93,000 jobs to be added. Previously reported hiring figures for June and July were revised lower.

The jobs picture may even be worse than the 9.1 percent unemployment rate suggests, because America’s 14 million unemployed must also compete with 8.8 million other people not counted as unemployed

Libya rebels hold off on attacking Gadhafi bastion

Rebel fighters have positioned several outposts along the Mediterranean coast, some 60 kilometers south of Misrata, Libya, Monday.

TARHOUNA, Libya (AP) — Thousands of rebel fighters closed in around one of Libya’s last proGadhafi strongholds Monday, but held back on a final assault in hopes of avoiding a bloody battle for the town of Bani Walid.

The standof f came as rebel leaders in T ripoli said Libya’s transition to democratic rule would begin with a “declaration of liberation” that was unlikely to come before Gadhafi’s last strongholds were defeated and the

fugitive former dictator had been captured.

The declaration would mark the start of an eightmonth deadline for Libya’s transitional council to arrange the vote for a national assembly, and eventually to a constitution and general elections.

“When the clock starts ticking on those eight months remains to be seen,” rebel spokesman Jalal el-Gallal said, adding it wasn’t yet clear how liberation would be defined.

Special U.N. envoy Ian

Martin, meanwhile, said the United Nations was helping the rebel leadership prepare for its elections, stressing the country faces immense political hurdles after nearly 42 years of dictatorial rule.

“The U.N. is certainly ready to move very fast to bring in the electoral expertise that can assist the authorities,” he said at a news conference in Tripoli with Ahmed Darrad, the interior minister.

Pastor trying to secure hay for NM ranchers

CLOVIS (AP) — With a surplus of hay in Iowa and a shortage in the southwest, a Clovis pastor is working to bring hay to area farmers and ranchers in need.

Pastor Bonita Knox with the T rinity Lutheran Church tells the Clovis News Jour nal they’re gauging the need.

Knox says the issue of moving surplus hay to shortage areas came up when an Iowa farmer was seated next to a Texas rancher during a midAugust nationwide gathering of Lutherans in Florida.

The conversation grew to a plan, now known as “Hay Lift.”

Knox says she jumped at the chance to include the Eastern Plains in the relief effort.

Now Knox is putting out a call to the community to tell her how much hay is needed so that she can report back by Tuesday morning.

The couple’s 20-year-old son, Benjamin David Baroz III, was charged Wednesday with firstdegree murder, felony shooting, felony tampering with evidence, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and possession of drug paraphernalia.

The younger Baroz is jailed at the Otero County Detention Center on a $1 million cash-only bond pending his arraignment.

The elder Baroz is jailed without bail for a parole violation. His wife is being held on a $30,000 bond.

2 Albuquerque abortion clinics are facing inquiry

ALAMOGORDO (AP) — An Alamogordo man and

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The New Mexico Medical Board has agreed to investigate two Albuquerque clinics that perform abortions.

That comes after complaints based on 911 calls for emergency transports of clinic patients to hospitals. advocates Pro-life sought the investigation and provided tapes of 13 calls, which date back to late November 2008.

Representatives for the clinics say the complaints to the board are nothing more than a national strategy of harassment by anti-abortion advocates.

Whether the 911 calls signify actual problems with physician care or treatment of patients will be up to the medical board to decide.

The Albuquerque Journal says the two clinics involved are the privately owned Southwester n Women’s Options and the University of New Mexico’s Center for Reproductive Health.

PHOENIX (AP) — Explosives that went missing from Phoenix’s international airport during a routine police training several days ago were spotted by a passing motorist sitting next to a roadside on Monday, police said.

The explosives — two half-pound tubes set inside a blue, soft-sided Igloo container — were taken by an “unknown individual” Friday afternoon from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. Police had placed the container in the public area of at the airport’s Terminal 4 to train police dogs. The area was outside security checkpoints,

where there are no restrictions on items carried into the airport, police said.

Authorities searched the airport several times over the weekend, although airport operations weren’t disrupted because of the disappearance, Phoenix police Sgt. Tommy Thompson said in a statement. Police eventually concluded that the container wasn’t near the airport.

On Monday, the motorist saw the container next to a south Phoenix street and recognized it from news reports. He picked it up, saw the explosives inside and called police.

Santa Fe man accused of having sex with 4year-old

SANTA FE (AP) — A Santa Fe man is in custody for allegedly having sex with a 4-year-old girl.

New Mexico State Police say 43-year -old Martin Soriano remains in the Santa Fe County Jail in lieu of a $250,000 cashonly bond and an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainer.

He reportedly was planning to return to his native El Salvador before he was arrested on Aug. 26.

Authorities say Soriano is being held on suspicion of criminal sexual penetration of a minor, criminal sexual contact of a minor and aggravated indecent exposure.

Police say the girl complained to other family members around Aug. 22 after she had been babysat at Soriano’s house for the previous three days.

The girl’s family had the child examined at a hospital.

It’s unclear whether Soriano has a lawyer.

LITITZ, Pa. (AP) — In a fledgling nation hungry for men to fight in the American Revolution, conscientious objectors were frequently greeted with scorn and their loyalty was questioned.

As war appr oached, leaders in Pennsylvania’s Lancaster County sought to ease tensions by urging the gr owing number of German immigrants with religious objections to war to demonstrate their patriotism by giving as much money as they could afford to the revolutionary cause.

The pr oposition is spelled out in a July 11, 1775, public notice known as a “broadside,” which is on display at the Moravian Archives & Museum here.

Experts r ecently confir med it as the only known English-language copy.

Lancaster played an important r ole in the nation’s early history. It was the largest inland town in America, said Scott Gordon, an English professor at Lehigh University in Bethlehem. It was the nation’s capital for one day — Sept. 27, 1777, while the Continental Congress was fleeing British tr oops who had captur ed Philadelphia.

And it was Pennsylvania’s capital from 1799 to 1812.

Gordon stumbled across the br oadside while r esear ching another aspect of the colonial era.

Driven by curiosity, he checked with authorities on the historical signifi-

cance of early American publications and confirmed its uniqueness.

The one-page broadside does not alter historians’ understanding of colonial history, but it adds texture to the record of the fier ce debate among colonists over how to deal with the Anabaptists, Quakers, Moravians, and other religious groups that were built on pacifist principles and whose members were moving to Pennsylvania, said Gordon, who also chairs Lehigh’s English Department.

The Moravian Church, which traces its origins to the 15th century in what is now the Czech Republic, calls itself the world’s oldest international Protestant denomination.

Early American policymakers wrestled with the conflicting forces of religious tolerance and wartime patriotism.

The 236-year-old broadside, yellowed but still clearly legible, urges citizens whose “r eligious scruples” pr event them from bearing arms to contribute toward the “necessary and unavoidable” expenses of the larger community.

No contribution amount is suggested, but the notice says the sum should be enough to dispel suspicion that they are using their beliefs as a pretense for not paying their fair share.

The broadside was published by Lancaster County’s “committee of correspondence and observa-

Burglary

Police were dispatched to the Spanish Calvary Baptist Church, 600 E. Tilden St., Saturday. A subject or subjects gained entry into the church by removing a window air conditioner. Among the items stolen were the air conditioner, a computer, printer and monitor, and a plant.

Estimated value of missing items is $1,130.

• Police were called to West Byrne Street, Friday, where subjects entered a home and took a 17-inch HP laptop and three LG Runner Cellphones. The victim also reported that someone had tampered with a desktop and a DVD player. Missing items were valued at $900.

Colonists asked pacifists to pay

In Loving Memory of

tion,” one of many panels local leaders formed at the request of the Continental Congress to keep citizens informed.

The Lancaster County committee published at least 10 broadsides during 1775 and 1776, Gordon said. The notices wer e posted in public places or r ead aloud. Most wer e printed in both English and German — up to 400 copies in each language.

A tor n portion of the German-language version of the July 11, 1775, broadside is in the possession of the Library of Congress in Washington. But checks with that institution, the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester, Mass., local collections in Pennsylvania and standar d r efer ences on historical publications turned up no copy of the English version, Gordon said.

Without fanfar e, the Lititz broadside has been displayed in the museum of the shade-dappled Moravian Church Square since the 1970s, according to Dorothy Earhart, who is in charge of tours of the complex.

In colonial times, Earhart said, “We had people in all phases, fr om those who were very much opposed to the war and anything to do with it to those who went into the militia — and all colors in between.”

The rebels’ most immediate concern is Bani Walid, a desert town some 90 miles (140 kilometers) southeast of Tripoli, where they say a small but heavily armed force of pro-Gadhafi fighters — at least some of them high-ranking members of his ousted regime — have taken up defensive positions.

The loyalists are spreading fear in the town to keep other residents from surrendering, the rebels say, telling people the rebels will rape their wives and daughters.

The regime loyalists “know if they hand themselves in, they will be punished. They are trying hard to mess things up, to drag other people with them into a battle,” said rebel Col. Abdullah Hussein Salem.

Most of the country has welcomed the uprising that swept Gadhafi from power, though rebel forces — backed by NATO airstrikes — have yet to capture loyalist bastions like Bani Walid, Gadhafi’s hometown of Sirte and the isolated southern town of Sabha.

Gadhafi has been on the run since losing control of his capital last month, though the rebels say at least two of his sons had been in Bani Walid in recent days. Moussa Ibrahim, Gadhafi’s spokesman and one of his key aides, was still believed to be in the town, rebel officials said.

Talks broke down over the weekend after Ibrahim insisted the rebels put down their weapons before

The rebels have extended to Saturday a deadline for the surrender of Sirte and other loyalist areas, though some rebel officials have said they could attack Bani Walid sooner because it has so many prominent loyalists.

For the most part, though, the rebels are urging patience, saying they want to avoid a bitter intertribal fight that could create lasting divisions.

“We won’t go inside Bani Walid unless the Warfala tribe invites us,” said rebel commander Ismail alGitani, referring to the town’s main tribe. “The War fala have to lead us into Bani Walid. Hopefully no one will be shot. We don’t want to use our weapons. But if the Gadhafi loyalists shoot at us, of course we will return fire.”

The Warfala are believed to be about 1-million strong, one-sixth of Libya’s population.

Rebel commanders have said they were willing to hold more talks about the town’s surrender, though apparently no negotiations were held Monday. Rebel negotiator Abdullah Kanshil added that the rebels were talking to individual families in the town about their urgent needs for water and food.

A field hospital with ten doctors also has been set up about 40 miles (60 kilometers) from Bani Walid.

“Our families in Bani Walid asked us to start this hospital just in case fighting breaks out,” said Abdel Baset el-Beib, a doctor.

Fears that the U.S. economy may be stuck in neutral, or worse, slammed Asian stocks.

“The problem is that there simply hasn’t been any meaningful jobs growth, which is precisely why markets are so worried about slipping back into recession,” said Ben Potter of IG Markets in Melbourne, Australia.

“The authorities have thrown a lot of stimulus at the problem and to date, it’s basically done nothing,” Potter said. Markets are realizing “that there probably isn’t a lot more authorities can do.”

work. Once they start looking again, they’ll be classified as unemployed.

And the unemployment rate could rise.

Intensified competition for jobs means unemployment could exceed its historic norm of 5 percent to 6 percent for several more years. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office expects the rate to exceed 8 percent until 2014. The White House predicts it will average 9 percent next year, when President Barack Obama runs for re-election.

The jobs crisis has led Obama to schedule a major speech Thursday night to propose steps to stimulate hiring. Republican presidential candidates will likely confront the issue in a debate the night before.

The back-to-back events will come days after the government said employers added zero net jobs in August. The monthly jobs report, arriving three days before Labor Day, was the weakest since September 2010.

Reaction from U.S. markets won’t be evident until Tuesday, when trading resumes after the holiday.

Combined, the 14 million officially unemployed; the “underemployed” parttimers who want full-time work; and “discouraged” people who have stopped

looking make up 16.2 percent of working-age Americans.

The Labor Department compiles the figure to assess how many people want full-time work and can’t find it — a number the unemployment rate alone doesn’t capture.

In a healthy economy, this broader measure of unemployment stays below 10 percent. Since the Great Recession officially ended more than two years ago, the rate has been 15 percent or more.

The proportion of the work force made up of the frustrated part-timers has risen faster than unemployment has since the recession began in December 2007.

That’s because many companies slashed workers’ hours after the recession hit. If they restored all those lost hours to their existing staff, they’d add enough hours to equal about 950,000 fulltime jobs, according to calculations by Heidi Shierholz, an economist at the Economic Policy Institute.

That’s without having to hire a single employee.

No one expects every company to delay hiring until every part-timer is working full time. But economists expect job growth to stay weak for

Some groups are disproportionately represented among the broader category of unemployment that includes underemployed and discouraged workers. More than 26 percent of African Americans, for example, and nearly 22 percent of Hispanics are in this category. The figure for whites is less than 15 percent.

Women are more likely than men to be in this group.

Nationally, 4.5 unemployed people, on average, are competing for each job opening. In a healthy economy, the average is about two per opening.

Martinez’s license caper leads to court A4 Tuesday, September 6, 2011

OPINION

Gov. Susana Martinez has been hauled into court again, although this time it’s Martinez’s Taxation and Revenue Secretary Demesia Padilla who is targeted in a case filed in Santa Fe state district court.

The suit cites Padilla for implementing the governor’s directive to dispatch some 10,000 letters seeking proof of residency from New Mexico licensed drivers presumed to be illegal immigrants.

Such licenses may be legally obtained by foreign nationals in New Mexico under a state law passed in 2003.

Martinez doesn’t like that law and promised to have it repealed during her campaign last year.

She failed in that effort at the 2011 Legislature, but is again seeking repeal at the special redistricting session under way at the Roundhouse.

Meanwhile, fearful lest illegals from other states slip into New

Mexico and get themselves licensed, the governor has been trawling for the scofflaws by requiring recipients of Padilla’s letters to show up in Albuquerque or Las Cruces with proof of their residency in this enchanted land.

The suit was filed last week by a number of Democratic state lawmakers, along with perhaps the nation’s leading Latino civil rights group, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund.

Shortly thereafter, District Judge Sarah Singleton ruled that Martinez’s proof of residency gam-

bit cannot be implemented pending further court review.

One of the legislators pressing this case is Silver City Sen. Howie Morales, whose sister -in-law, Marisela Morales, has been a legal resident of New Mexico for a decade and a half. Nonetheless, she is one of thousands who received a letter directing her to validate her claim to a driver’s license by proving her New Mexico residency. Not surprisingly, Ms. Morales is among the petitioners in this case.

The basic charge against the Martinez administration here is that in casting its net for foreign nationals who have improperly acquired state drivers’ licenses, the governor has acted beyond her authority by singling “out a specific class of individuals for an onerous and wasteful exercise of state resources.”

“This case is about an abuse of power,” said a MALDEF lawyer, a contention Judge Singleton will

almost certainly weigh in reviewing this case.

Meanwhile there lurks a disquieting impression that, having failed thus far to vindicate her campaign promise to revoke the law authorizing drivers’ licenses for foreign nationals, Martinez has arbitrarily opted to harass the recipients of those licenses.

It seems quite gratuitous, Martinez’s residency verification venture. Certainly there is nothing in the 2003 law permitting drivers’ licenses for foreign nationals in New Mexico that authorizes this or any governor to undertake such a program.

Nor did the 2011 Legislature set aside funds to finance such an undertaking, even though Martinez admits having diverted almost $50,000 from the Motor Vehicle Division budget for that purpose, including the services of a 1-855 Foreign National Call Center.

Sen. Dede Feldman, an Albuquerque Democrat, is emphatic when asked about the matter: “No,” she snaps. “We did not appropriate any money for her to conduct this kind of thing.”

Here we have what could be the crux of the matter for Judge Singleton: If the residency verification program isn’t authorized by state law and if the Legislature did not fund such a program, where does the governor get the authority to institute it?

Martinez’s spokesman Scott Darnell reacted to Judge Singleton’s temporary blocking of the program with a ho-hum statement that “it is fairly standard as the court examines the residency certification program.”

David Urias, one of the attorneys who filed the suit, thinks it indicates the judge takes the case seriously.

Urias is closer to the mark.

Why stimulus isn’t working

President Barack Obama, preparing to announce his big new economic fix, appointed labor specialist Alan Krueger as chairman of his Council of Economic Advisers. Need more jobs? Hire a labor expert, of course.

Obama and Krueger will not think beyond the paradigm of government stimulus. It worked for Obama’s predecessors, so why not now? Even if it creates problems for future generations, tossing money at the economy should create an economic bubble and an election-year illusion of prosperity.

It doesn’t work anymore, and Harry Dent — an economic analyst with an MBA from Harvard — may know why.

Dent predicted with precision the economic downfalls of Japan and the United States.

Unlike most prognosticators, Dent combines economic and demographic data. Money and wealth mean nothing in the absence of human activity. Economies grow when thriving populations produce and trade; they contract when populations age and spend less.

“In a modern and industrialized economy, as we age we go through very predictable spending stages of life that occur at predictable ages,” Dent explains on his website, http://www.hsdent.com. History tells us that humans hit their peak spending between the ages of 46 and 50. As the majority of baby boomers moved toward their peak spending ages, Dent continually and accurately assured investors of bull markets and economic growth.

“Our spending continues to increase until about age 47 as our kids reach their late teenage years and are still living in the household,” Dent explains on his website.

“As we reach 50 and the kids leave home, we begin to spend less.”

When does the recession end? Not for another 10 to 11 years, as members of the 1990s “baby boomlet” generation, aka Generation Z, begin their earning years.

In an interview with Dent, investment blogger Brett Owens asked why Keynesian stimuli by Presidents George W. Bush and Obama have not worked. He came away with this: “During previous recessions, the government could float easy money out into the economy, and eager consumers would grab it and spend it — because they were in the upswings in their spending patterns,” Owens wrote. “But this time, (they) are merely pushing on a proverbial string. The Fed can extend credit, but they can’t force the consumer to take it! ... It’s a time to save, not spend, in their lives. Want a mortgage at record low rates? No thanks — we’re already choking on debt! And we hope to retire someday.”

If our country’s economy is to grow reliably, Obama and other politicians should focus on demographics as much as monetarism. That means getting serious about immigration reforms and policies to incentivize American fertility. Our economy isn’t built on currency. It is built on humans producing and consuming in ways that ever improve the human condition. Economic growth is human progress; contraction is human regression.

I realize there are a lot worse things that can happen to a person, but it has really screwed up my life. I would simply like to know if any progress has been made in recent years in finding an effective treatment or if a cure is anywhere in sight.

DEAR READER: Ulcerative colitis is a type of inflammatory bowel disease that affects the lining of the large intestine and rectum. Inflammation destroys the cells that ordinarily line the colon, ultimately leading to ulcers that bleed and produce pus. It also causes the colon to empty frequently in the form of diar-

These are not tea partiers, but rather for mer Obama endorsers and enthusiasts — immigrants from many backgrounds pulled together by an organization called Presente.org.

Symptoms can vary from person to person. They may begin slowly or rapidly, being mild in some and quite severe in others. They include diarrhea, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, fatigue, growth failure in children, anemia, and cramping that is relieved by having a bowel movement.

Complications include severe bleeding, osteoporosis, kidney stones, severe dehydration, increased risk of colon cancer, and skin, joint and eye inflammation.

Book Talk

New Mexico is a large diverse state. It would take a whole collection of books to begin to describe the history, culture, traditions, geology and technological advances of New Mexico. The library’s Southwest collection of more than 4,400 fiction and nonfiction titles portrays New Mexico, along with some areas of surrounding states.

New Mexico is known for having a rich tradition in agriculture and ranching. In Roswell and Chaves County, that tradition continues to be a big part of the culture that continues from generation to generation. Tomás González, reference staff member, has researched books to provide insight into the ranching culture from families and ranches located around Roswell and southeast New Mexico.

Barbara Corn Patterson’s “The Rock House Ranch: My Lazy-ABar Days” shares her experiences of growing up on a ranch located northwest of Roswell. She details her younger days, describing the

ing the Civil War. In 1916, the first selfservice grocery store, Piggly Wiggly, was opened in Memphis, Tenn., by Clarence Saunders.

In 1939, the Union of South Africa declared war on Germany.

In 1948, Princess Juliana of the Netherlands was inaugurated as queen, two days after the abdication of her mother, Queen Wilhelmina.

In 1949, Howard Unruh, a resident of Camden, N.J., shot and killed 13 of his neighbors. (Found to have paranoid schizophrenia, Unruh was confined for the rest of his life; he died in a Trenton nursing home in 2009 at age 88.)

ed that there would be “prosecutorial discretion” in deciding who to deport.

But White House spokesman Luis Miranda stated to me what really should have been the headline: Yes, there is some hopeful change on the horizon, but the actual number of deportations presided over by this president won’t change.

The president could enact an executive order — something the protesters have been asking for with signs that say “With the Stroke of a Pen,” because with that, the deportations of mothers and fathers and students and undocumented family members of some men and women serving in the military could stop altogether. Imagine a soldier fighting on

from pain and control infection and diarrhea. Corticosteroids and immunomodulators might provide relief.

Immuno-modulators may take up to six months to be of full benefit.

Up to 40 percent of patients with ulcerative colitis ultimately have their colons removed because of extensive bleeding, extreme illness, colon rupture or the risk of cancer. Surgery to remove the colon and rectum is known as proctocolectomy.

Researchers are investigating how and why the immune system is activated, how ulcerative colitis damages the colon, and continue to study the healing process. There are numerous ongoing clinical trials on the subject that may be of interest and can be followed through the National Institutes of Health sponsored website at www.ClinicalTrials.gov.

On the home front, specific foods and beverages can aggravate your symp-

joys and struggles of ranching life. Her daily chores included dealing with different animals, from their own personal livestock to unwelcome predators. Other chapters focus on family history.

Descendants of the family are still living in Roswell today.

Another New Mexico rancher is Bob Crosby, a rodeo champion who became a three-time winner of World’s Champion Cowboy and permanent holder of the Roosevelt Trophy, as well as numerous other rodeo trophies and awards. “Bob Crosby: World Champion Cowboy” is written by his wife, Thelma Crosby, and Eve Ball. Thelma starts with how she met Bob, her marriage and life with Bob Crosby. The book continues with different rodeos and world championships in which her husband competed and on his rise to the top of the rodeo world. Many events and stories are detailed to provide a greater insight into a local legend, who was also known as King of the Cowboys. The Crosby family owned the ranch at Kenna, but they moved in Roswell to raise their two children. During his 26 years as a rodeo star, Crosby became an undisputed champion in the sport.

Ernestine Chesser Williams published many articles in magazines and newspapers about the history on both the Chesser and Williams families. Both Ernestine and her husband grew up locally in families whose history goes back as far as four generations.

These articles were gathered

during a parliamentary session in Cape Town.

In 1970, Palestinian guerrillas seized control of three U.S.-bound jetliners. (Two were later blown up on the ground in Jordan, along with a London-bound plane hijacked on Sept. 9; the fourth plane was destroyed on the ground in Egypt. No hostages were harmed.)

In 1985, all 31 people aboard a Midwest Express Airlines DC-9 were killed when the Atlanta-bound jetliner crashed just after takeoff from Milwaukee’s Mitchell Field.

In 1991, the Soviet Union recognized the independence of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. Russian lawmakers upheld a decision by residents of Leningrad to restore the city’s pre-revolutionary name, St. Petersburg.

the front lines worried about his deported dad. Hard to “be all that you can be” in a situation like that.

So unless the president chooses to use his leadership in a forceful, direct, uncompromising manner to challenge Congress on immigration law, you can expect more vociferous protests, and you can expect that you will begin to hear more stories about neighbors, coworkers, employees, pizza-delivery men, gardeners, nannies and cooks disappearing than ever before.

Haitians protest alleged attack by UN peacekeepers Roswell Daily Record

inary U.N. investigation “doesn’t see this as an attempted rape, based on the attitude of the troops, who were all completely clothed.� “This was a joke in bad taste, at a bad time and a bad place,� Bique said.

The case has embarrassed Uruguay’s military, which has 900 troops among the 12,000 U.N. military and police personnel in Haiti, and it has fed

complaints that the U.N. mission has been abusive to the local population.

Uruguay’s Defense Ministry has removed its military commander in Haiti, though it did not release his name, and it said on Sunday that officials began investigating the case as soon as they knew of the video. The ministry said it is cooperating with U.N. and Haitian officials and that anyone found guilty

would be prosecuted in Uruguay. The country’s Navy commander has threatened anyone convicted with a dishonorable discharge and loss of retirement benefits.

The military says the soldiers at least violated rules against having outsiders in their barracks.

The secretary of Uruguay’s presidency, Alberto Breccia, said later Monday that the Defense

Ministry had presented charges against the peacekeepers. He did not specify the charges.

The episode began when a soldier took the youth into the base in Port-Salut, according to the judge and the mother of the alleged victim.

The U.N. soldiers and police deployed nationwide have been key in supporting Haiti’s economy and providing security since

the mission arrived in 2004 after former President Jean-Bertrand was toppled in a rebellion.

President Martelly has called for a reduced U.N. presence in Haiti, with troops focusing more on development instead of security matters, and he campaigned for a revival of the Haitian Army, which was dissolved in 1995 because of human rights abuses.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) — Several hundred Haitians demonstrated Monday in support of an 18-year-old man who says he was sexually assaulted by peacekeepers from Uruguay on a U.N. base along the southern coast of Haiti.

The alleged attack occurred on July 20 but only became public last week when a video taken by cell phone was circulated and the United Nations announced an investigation. The Uruguayan military has called the incident a prank that got out of hand and says a preliminary U.N. investigation shows no evidence of rape.

Haitian President Michel Martelly “vigorously condemned� the alleged assault in the town of PortSalut, saying in a statement that it was an “act that revolts the national conscience.�

Protesters in Port-Salut called for reparations over the alleged assault, which threatened to worsen the reputation of the U.N. in Haiti. Many Haitians view the world body as an occupying force and are still angry over a cholera outbreak that was inadvertently brought to the country by peacekeepers from Nepal last year.

In a statement Sunday, the Uruguayan defense ministry said a U.N. preliminary investigation had found that the men did not sexually abuse the Haitian teen but that they committed misconduct by allowing a civilian into their barrack and could face severe penalties.

The video of the encounter is clearly sexual in nature. However, a U.N. spokeswoman in Haiti, Eliane Nabaa, said the U.N. had not come to any conclusions.

Dr. Clifford Gauthier, a physician who examined the young man a month after the alleged attack, told the AP he found evidence that was consistent with signs of sexual abuse even five weeks after the attack. He said he asked the young man why he waited so long for treatment and didn’t get an answer.

Resting on a white sheet in a cinderblock home, the teenager recalled the encounter. “I was scared, very scared,� he told The AP on Saturday. The Associated Press typically does not identify possible victims of sexual assault.

His mother said “When I saw the video, I stopped sleeping.�

The widely broadcast 50second version of a cell phone video that surfaced last week showed several Uruguayan troops pinning the young man down on a mattress as they laughed.

They helped him up at the end and it was not clear what happened.

A Haitian judge, Paul Tarte, provided the AP with a slightly longer version, purportedly taken directly from a soldier’s phone, which is clearer. It shows several Uruguayan troops pinning the young man face down on a mattress, laughing and pulling his pants down. They shout “What’s the problem here?� as the man repeatedly responds “No problem.�

Then, the Uruguayans laugh as a shirtless peacekeeper stands in between the man’s legs and seems to simulate a sex act until others shout “stop, Crazy.�

The peacekeeper then slaps the man’s naked rear end several times and steps away.

For several seconds toward the end of the episode, it’s not clear whether the teen is laughing or grimacing.

Uruguayan Navy spokesman Sergio Bique told Uruguay’s El Pais newspaper that the prelim-

Lythgoe: Lewis welcome on MDA telethon anytime

LAS VEGAS (AP) — “American Idol” executive producer Nigel Lythgoe said after co-hosting the annual Muscular Dystrophy Association telethon Sunday night that he’s sorry comedian Jerry Lewis didn’t participate, but the organization needs to move on to ensure the fundraiser continues.

Despite Lewis’ absence, the telethon raised nearly $61.5 million Sunday, an increase of about $2.6 million over last year, MDA officials said.

Lythgoe told The Associated Press minutes after the six-hour live broadcast ended on the East Coast that he thought the 85-yearold actor would show up either during the telecast or earlier to film a taped segment of his signature song “You’ll Never Walk Alone.”

“I was fully expecting him to turn up at any point and join that six hours — and I’m sorry he didn’t,” Lythgoe told the AP. “And hopefully another year he might. I mean, he knows that he is always welcome on the telethon. It’s his baby.”

An orchestra was ready to film Lewis, but he didn’t come to the Las Vegas casino where the telethon was filmed, Lythgoe said.

Lewis publicist Candi Cazau declined comment when reached by the AP. Earlier, she said Lewis never agreed to any appearance — recorded or live — after the MDA announced in August he wouldn’t take part in the show or be its chairman.

Lythgoe and co-host Jann Carl said during the show that Lewis “retired.”

Lewis has not publicly said why he is no longer chairman of the MDA, or why he didn’t personally appear in this year’s telethon. The co-hosts’ remarks during the show

were the first time the MDA has addressed Lewis’ departure since it was announced, and telethon spokesman Jim Brown declined further comment about the split.

Lewis’ absence ended a 45-year run in which he raised $1.66 billion.

The fundraiser raised $58.9 million last year, but was shortened this year from 21 1/2 hours.

Brown said early Monday that this year’s donations increased to nearly $61.5 million, the MDA’s best showing since 2008 when the recession started.

Lythgoe said he and other telethon hosts knew Lewis — a man inextricably bonded to the telethon — would be a presence even in a show that never included his voice.

“There appeared to be an elephant in the room, and it’s one that you go talk about,” Lythgoe said. “This guy is someone who’s put this whole thing together.”

Buy L ythgoe said the telethon and cause can’t center around one man — even Lewis.

“It has to continue without him and we are going to need a lot of help from everybody to ensure that it does continue,” L ythgoe said. “Because Jerry, bless him, is 85 and isn’t going to be around forever anyway.

And the MDA and this telethon has to continue.”

The Lewis-less telethon began airing live on the East Coast Sunday night with an opening number featuring young dancers performing to David Guetta’s “Titanium,” with an introduction from Abbey Umali, the organization’s tween goodwill ambassador.

L ythgoe, Carl and cohosts Nancy O’Dell and Alison Sweeney then spent five

minutes after being introduced talking about Lewis and his lifelong legacy felt by the telethon, the MDA and everyone who participates in the charity’s pushes for neuromuscular research, clinics and summer camps for youngsters known as “Jerry’s Kids.”

SPORTS Roswell Daily Record

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

Week 2 of the high school football season is in the books and it’s time again to take a look at what we learned about the area’s teams.

Dexter

In Week 2, we learned that the Demons might well be on the right track. Dexter hung tough with a quality Plains (Texas) team, and that is usually a good indicator for a New Mexico team.

Bryant Zabala had two rushing touchdowns for the Demons on Friday, which bodes well for an offense that is still seeking a go-to option.

If Zabala can step in and be consistent, the Demons might be in a position to contend for the district crown by the end of the season.

Gateway Christian

The Warriors responded well in Week 2 to the loss to Mountainair in Week 1, which is something they didn’t do last year.

Mason Miller continued his stellar play on Friday and that should not surprise anyone in the state.

He’s an outstanding weapon and will give the Warriors a chance to win every week.

Goddard

Where do I start with this one?

The Rockets looked as good as I’ve seen them look in the three years I’ve been covering them for the Daily Record. David Anaya was good, Ryan Greene was good, Cody French looked good, the defense was outstanding, the special teams looked good and the offensive line looked great.

French is emerging as a versatile weapon in an of fense that was already good. He’s going to be fun to watch grow and mature over the course of this season and over the next two years.

Goddard is loaded and I think this week’s trip to Canyon (Texas) Kevin J.

However, Loving is an under-the-

• More shorts on B2

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Irsay hasn’t been shy about using Twitter to share his thoughts.

Not this time — and certainly not when it involves the health of his star quarterback.

“There is nothing2say on Peyton’s status except we move cautiously n deliberately on projecting,beyond day2day,his healing process n recovery,” Irsay wrote.

It was about as cautious as the Colts owner has been in his posts.

Irsay’s latest posting came amid new reports swirling about Manning’s possible availability for Sunday’s season opener at Houston.

ESPN reported that Manning was expected to see more doctors about the slow pace of his recovery.

Presumably, Manning has been seeing doctors regularly since he agreed to his new deal on July 30 because team officials have repeatedly said Manning would not be cleared to practice without the consent of the doctors.

Manning started training camp on the physically unable to perform list as he continued to recover from surgery to repair a nerve in the neck, though he was seen by reporters running and throwing at camp.

Last Monday, the Colts finally activated their franchise quarterback.

Manning, however, did not even dress for Thursday night’s exhibition finale at Cincinnati and missed the entire preseason for only the second time in his career.

COLLEGE PARK, Md. (AP) — Nick Ferrara kicked a 32-yard field goal with 1:39 left, Danny O’Brien threw for 348 yards and a touchdown, and Maryland beat short-handed Miami 32-24 on Monday night in coach Randy Edsall’s first game with the Terrapins.

Miami was playing its initial game under Al Golden without eight suspended players, including quarterback Jacory Harris, linebacker Sean Spence and defensive linemen Marcus Forston and Adewale Ojomo.

Stephen Morris capably filled in for Harris, going 19 for 28 for 195 yards and running for a touchdown. But on a fourthand-4 in the final minute, the sophomore threw an

interception that Cameron Chism took 54 yards for the clinching score with 39 seconds remaining.

It was the second touchdown by the Maryland defense, both involving Chism. He also forced a fumble that provided the Terps with a 20-14 halftime lead.

The Hurricanes, conversely, struggled defensively from the outset in this Atlantic Coast Conference duel.

Maryland amassed 311 yards and 19 first downs in the first half alone and finished with 499 yards, including 92 yards on 21 carries by Davin Meggett.

NORTON, Mass. (AP) — Webb Simpson, a PGA Tour winner for the first time just three weeks ago, figured his next win would be easier. It was more work than he could have imagined Monday at the Deutsche Bank Championship.

He had to make three par saves in the middle of the back nine just to stay in the game. He had to make a 30-foot birdie putt on the final hole for a 6-under 65, which got him into a playoff only when Chez Reavie finished with a bogey on the easiest hole at the TPC Boston.

Simpson made a 15-foot birdie putt on the 18th in the playoff after Reavie chipped to tap-in birdie range. Then, Simpson completed his comeback with an 8-foot birdie on the second extra hole at No. 17 to win the FedEx Cup’s second playoff event and move to No. 1 in the standings, giving him a clear shot at the $10 million prize.

Pretty simple, huh?

“I told somebody early this week that I feel like next time I was in contention, it’ll be a lot easier than Greensboro,” Simpson said. “And it wasn’t that way at all. It was just as hard. The shots and the putts were just as hard. I think it helped calm me down a little, but it was like I had never won a golf tournament before.”

It was hard on Reavie, too, for a variety of reasons.

He started the season on a medical exemption because of knee surgery a year

ago and lost full status by June. Not only did Reavie claw his way into the playoffs, he had a one-shot lead playing the par-5 18th.

His plan all along was to lay up short of the ravine with a one-shot lead. He didn’t count on his sand wedge turning with the wind and going over the green, leading to a bogey when he missed a 10-foot putt.

“Unfortunately, my wedge didn’t quite work out,” Reavie said. “But all in all on the day, I played fantastic.”

He immediately found some consolation in his 66 for a runner -up finish. Even though he won’t have full status on tour until next year, Reavie moved to No. 9 in the standings and is assured of getting to the FedEx Cup finale at the Tour Championship, putting him in Masters, U.S. Open and British Open.

His eyes welled with tears just thinking about how far he has come this year.

“It’s unbelievable,” Reavie said. “Starting the year on a medical and not knowing what’s going to happen, to be able to go to the Tour Championship is a goal. It’s what I wanted to do.”

A day filled with big crowds and big moments — appropriate to golf’s version of the postseason — the pressure was felt by more than just the leaders. The top 70 advance to the third playoff event in two

Serena, Djokovic make quarters

NEW YORK (AP) — Mardy Fish found himself dealing with all sorts of problems as he tried to reach the U.S. Open quarterfinals for the second time.

There was the brief flap with his opponent, 11thseeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga, and the chair umpire over some distracting cheering in the stands.

There were the aching right hip and hamstring that left Fish flat on his back, getting massaged by a trainer before the fifth set.

There was the pressure of knowing that he was, for the first time, the highestranked American at the country’s Grand Slam tennis tournament.

There was the whipping wind that sent shots this way and that.

And then, of course, there was Tsonga, the big-hitting, athletic Frenchman, who feels more confident than ever — and it shows. The eighth-seeded Fish wasted a lead and lost the fourthround match at Flushing Meadows 6-4, 6-7 (5), 3-6, 6-4, 6-2 on Monday night, bringing what he saw as a premature end to what he hoped would be a run to a major semifinal.

“This might have been my best chance so far,” the 29year-old Fish said, knowing that he played well all summer on the type of hard courts used at the U.S. Open, including one title, two other appearances in finals and a victory over

Novak Djokovic returns a shot during his fourth-round match at the U.S. Open, Monday.

Rafael Nadal.

“For whatever reason — old age, I guess — my body didn’t check up like I had hoped,” said Fish, who limped out of his news conference. “Look, that’s not why I lost. But it would have been nice to be able to run without pain.”

Tsonga reached his first U.S. Open quarterfinal, but unlike Fish, he’s already tasted this sort of success.

Tsonga made it to the final of the 2008 Australian Open

before losing to Novak Djokovic, and got to the Wimbledon semifinals this year — where he again lost to Djokovic — by stunning Roger Federer after dropping the first two sets of their quarterfinal.

There could be a Grand Slam rematch in New York, because Tsonga next plays either 16-time major champion Federer or Juan MonaSee U.S. OPEN, Page B3

Gerina’s Journey: In contention 2 weeks in a row

Hello Roswell!

It’s that time again to update you on my last two golf tournaments.

The first tournament was the Safeway Classic located just outside Portland, Ore., at Pumpkin Ridge Golf Club. The course was built in 1990 and has hosted U.S. Women’s Opens and U.S. Amateurs.

With that in mind, I had high expectations for the quality of the facility. On another note, I was fortunate to be able to stay at PGA Tour player Ben Crane’s home in Beaverton.

Crane lives in Dallas and is a friend of ours, which is how I got hooked up with this sweet deal. He grew up in Beaverton and still has a house there for the summertime.

The course was one of the best I’ve played all year.

I was a little nervous, though, because the green surfaces are a poa annua

grass. My record on poa annua grass hasn’t been great this year.

I wanted to change that, so I spent a lot of time on the practice green, and I even changed to a new putter. The time I put in paid off and, as the week went on, I became a fan of poa annua greens. My attitude was very positive and the results showed.

The Safeway Classic was my best finish all year and ever in an LPGA event. It was exciting being in contention and having a chance to win a golf tournament. In the final round, I was paired with Paula Creamer. She usually attracts large crowds and that Sunday was no exception. I enjoy playing in front of the big galleries and, by the end of the day, they were rooting for me just as hard as Creamer.

validated that I belong out here and can play with the best in the world.

After the Safeway, I jumped on a big steel bird and headed eastbound to the CN Canadian Women’s Open in Montreal, Quebec.

I took a red eye, so it was difficult adjusting to the time change. Montreal is an interesting city. While it’s only about 20 miles from the U.S. border, it has the feel of a far away foreign country. The whole city speaks almost exclusively French. There are French signs and brands everywhere you go.

There is little English spoken there, so I had to use my instincts when getting around. I definitely had a hard time driving around in the city and it was a relief when my husband Martin flew in. Martin is way better at directions and big-city driving than I am.

The Elite Fall Baseball training program will hold sign-ups for its Session I, II and III workouts from 46 p.m. at Joe Bauman Stadium on Sept. 7.

The cost for Session I is $60 and runs six weeks.

The sessions are for students in eighth grade and up.

GERINA’S JOURNEY

BY GERINA PILLER

Preparing for the tournament, I just kept reminding myself of the previous week. That I did belong out here and I could play with the best in the world. The weather conditions were different from Oregon as we were at sea level and the ball did not carry as far.

The course was fairly soft and was going to play long all week. However, soft greens usually translate into low scores as you can be more aggressive on your approach shots.

I began the tournament the same way I left off in Portland. Rounds of 70 and

66 put me in fourth place heading into the weekend and I was back in contention.

Saturday was a difficult pill to swallow. I had a rough front nine and, while my game felt good, nothing seemed to go my way. I was proud of myself for coming back and shooting 69 on Sunday in difficult conditions as Hurricane Irene made her way through Montreal. I actually felt like I was back at home with all the wind (haha).

With these last two finishes, I moved up on the money list and increased

huge for him. He’s looked forward to it for a long time.”

Buddy Ryan was as outspoken and boisterous as his boys are, a persona he could back up with his team’s success on the field.

He was defensive coordinator of two renowned Super Bowl champions, the Joe Namath-led Jets who pulled off the huge upset in 1969, and the 1985 Bears who ran his 46 defense to perfection. He is also known for throwing a punch at the offensive coordinator while he was running the Oilers’ defense. Ryan also had entertaining stints as the head coach of the Eagles and the Cardinals.

Both sons were on their dad’s staff with the Cardinals in 1994 and ’95. They’ve since made a name for themselves, with Rex leading the Jets to the AFC championship game the last two years, and Rob winning two Super Bowls as an assistant coach for the Patriots’ Bill Belichick. This is Rob’s first season in Dallas after working as defensive coordinator of the Browns and Raiders the last four years.

The brothers have squared off before, and every time is special for the Ryan family, especially the patriarch.

“This game’s important to him,” Rob said. “He wants to see these two rams bat heads.”

Cancer can’t keep Buddy Ryan from Cowboys vs. Jets

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Not even cancer surgery can keep former NFL coach Buddy Ryan from being in the stands when his twin sons coach against each other Sunday night in the prime-time opener between the Dallas Cowboys and New York Jets.

Cowboys defensive coordinator Rob Ryan said Monday his dad was diagnosed last week with a form of cancer “in his gland that’s right through his neck.” Brother Rex, the Jets coach, said through a team spokesman that it was the parotid gland, the largest of the salivary glands.

Having already beaten melanoma in 1968 and ’80, and another form of the disease earlier this year, the 80-year-old Ryan said this was “less serious” except that “whenever you go under anesthesia, you never know what’s going to happen.” So he told doctors to postpone the operation until he returns from the Meadowlands to see Rob and the Cowboys play against Rex and the Jets. He said he’ll fly to New York on Friday and will return to his home in Kentucky on Monday.

“They said to go ahead and go,” Ryan said during a telephone interview. “I’ve got to be able to do something” while waiting for the operation.

Rob Ryan said his dad’s approach to fighting the disease is typical.

“That’s just the way he is,” he said. “This is a big thing for him, a big thing for the Ryans. He’s just about the only guy that’s beaten cancer about every time. He’s been through it about four or five times. I’m sure the prognosis is great for him because he always wins.”

He said his father’s illness will be more motivation than distraction.

“All he taught us is ‘Do the job,”‘ Rob said. “That’s the way he is, so it’s not that difficult. Obviously, (we’re) praying a lot for him and things have to go well because that’s what it is. But he raised us to do the job. Whatever we do, we’re going to be the best at it — and that’s what we are.”

From Jets camp, Rex added: “It’s going to be great having him here. I know this is

Colts won’t use Tressel until 7th game

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The Colts won’t use former Ohio State coach Jim Tressel as a replay consultant until the seventh game of the season.

Colts vice chairman Bill Polian said Monday that Tressel won’t join the team until late October. The team recently announced it would employ Tressel as a game-day consultant to help determine when the team should challenge plays with a video review.

In a statement, Polian said that “questions were raised with respect to the equity of his appointment as opposed to suspensions being served this season by present and former Ohio State players.”

Tressel was pushed out at Ohio State after an investigation into improper benefits by his players, including quarterback Terrelle Pryor.

Pryor recently was taken by Oakland in the NFL’s supplemental draft and will face a five-game suspension in the NFL. Tressel resigned from the Buckeyes job on Memorial Day.

Romo trusts his three young, unproven blockers Roswell Daily Record

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Tyron Smith is so young he doesn’t turn 21 until nearly Christmas.

Bill Nagy is so unproven he didn’t even start every game at Wisconsin last season.

Phil Costa’s body of work as an NFL lineman includes two games last year and two this preseason before hurting a knee.

Yet those guys are three-fifths of the Dallas Cowboys’ offensive line that will protect Tony Romo in the opener Sunday night, a game that also marks his first real action since breaking a collarbone last October.

As much pressure as that might seem, it’s not even the full story.

The Cowboys will be trying to slow a Jets defense that could be more aggressive than usual because their head coach, Rex Ryan, will be looking to show off with his twin brother, Rob, across the field coordinating the Dallas defense. They also have to deal with the setting: a nationally broadcast, prime-time game from New York on a night when the city will pay tribute to the 10-year anniversary of the terrorist attacks.

Can these blockers handle all of that?

“I think we’re banking on it,” Romo said Monday. “These guys have done a good job coming together. They’re starting to jell.

They just have to go out and play, do what they’ve been coached to do. I think we’ve got a good group of guys. Guys are going to work hard and give it their all out there, and that’s all that you can ask.”

Smith was the Cowboys’ top draft pick and has been at right

Nagy, a seventh-round pick, moved into the lineup at left guard midway through camp.

Costa played center on the first team early in camp when Andre Gurode was hurt. Once Gurode returned, Costa mostly played with the second team. He was injured around the same time the Cowboys decided to cut Gurode and hand him the job. So he has not even snapped the ball since earning his promotion.

weeks outside Chicago.

Ernie Els, Geoff Ogilvy and Chris Stroud made it by one shot with clutch play on the 18th hole — birdies for Els and Ogilvy, an eagle for Stroud.

“You screw up on the 18th leading and now you’re going to finish second and you’re going to have a $600,000 check,” Els said. “Here, I’m going home. It’s a bad place to be, but it’s a good place to come back from.”

Simpson, who had to play well late last year just to keep his PGA Tour card, started the season at No. 213 in the world. His second win in three weeks moves him up to No. 14, and the $1.44 million check assures him a spot in the Presidents Cup. Best of all, he is atop the FedEx Cup. “I couldn’t expect anything more,” Simpson said.

came down to the closing minutes. Soon after O’Brien completed a 52yard pass to Kevin Dorsey down the right sideline, Ferrera entered only one series after missing from 23 yards out. This one, however, was right down the middle.

Chism then provided the clincher.

A year ago, O’Brien went 9 for 28 for 134 yards in a 26-20 loss to the Hurricanes. In this one, he was 31 for 44 — including 19 for 26 for 228 yards after only four series.

is expected to go practice fully on Wednesday.

“I’m glad they put the confidence in me,” Costa said. “I’m just happy to have this opportunity.”

The Cowboys decided to get younger and more athletic on the line during training camp, shedding the age, size and contracts of Gurode, Leonard Davis and Marc Colombo. The holdovers are left tackle Doug Free and Kyle Kosier, who has moved from left guard to right guard.

The overall crew remains in

than 400 rushing yards and eight touchdowns (Naceanceno had all eight) against the Panthers. Generally speaking, when an opponent’s best two players do that, you usually lose by more than 12 points.

I think Lake Arthur learned what it needs to do to win the state title again this year, and I fully expect Panther coach Jose Cruz Porras will get them ready to do just that.

I also think you’ll see this game again — in the 6-Man state championship in Clovis.

NMMI

The Colts, in a nutshell, need to get

round on Labor Day. It was so scrambled that seven players — including world No. 1 Luke Donald — had a share of the lead at some point.

Simpson one-putted seven of his last eight greens, mostly for par on the back nine in regulation to stay in the hunt, then received just enough help from Reavie.

Reavie came roaring up the leaderboard on the back nine. He made four birdies in a six-hole stretch — including on the toughest par 3 at No. 11 and the toughest hole at No. 14 — and was poised to capture his second PGA Tour title until one wedge cost him.

“It’s definitely difficult to think about it,” Reavie said.

“It’s not hard to make a 5. I mean, I’m going to make a 5 there nine times out of 10. Unfortunately it was the only bogey I had all day.”

Brandt Snedeker, who closed with a 61 last week to tie for third, went out in 30 to take the lead until getting wild off the teed on the back nine. He had to But Maryland couldn’t put the finish on several impressive drives. The T errapins got to the Miami 11 or closer on six occasions, yet they scored only one touchdown and twice came away with nothing.

The Hurricanes took a 21-20 lead early in the third quarter on a 5-yard run by Morris. Maryland regained the lead when Ferrara kicked his third field goal to end a 14play drive.

The patter n ended when Miami received three penalties, including two straight for delay of game, and had to punt.

O’Brien began moving the T erps in a march that bridged the third

settle for a 66 and another tie for third.

Donald, who matched birdies and eagles with Simpson in regulation, fell apart with a double bogey on No. 12 and a tee shot over the 16th green that led to bogey. He closed with a 67 and tied for third, along with Jason Day, who had a 68.

Bubba Watson, who had a one-shot lead going into the wild final day, chipped in for eagle on the final hole to salvage a 74 that put him in a tie for 16th, seven shots behind.

Some of the most intense golf came hours before Simpson and Reavie went into their playoff.

Els, who barely qualified for the playoffs and then narrowly made it to the second stage in Boston, made two key par putts and finished with a 5-foot birdie over his last four holes to move up to No. 68 and advance.

Ogilvy, trying to keep alive his hopes of making the Presidents Cup in his native Australia, thought he and fourth quarters. In the middle of the drive, a rain that began at halftime picked up in intensity.

Maryland managed to get a first-and-goal at the Miami 5, but could get no closer before Ferrara’s field goal try sailed off to the right.

Morris then directed a 67-yard march that ended with a 30-yard field goal by Jake Wieclaw for a 24-23 lead with 4:01 remaining.

Miami converted a fourth-and-1 on the drive and also benefited from a questionable defensive holding call on Chism.

That, however, would be the Hurricanes’ final surge.

flux. Dallas kept veteran guard Montrae Holland and second-year tackle Sam Young when the roster was whittled to 53 players on Saturday, but already has dropped both, replacing them with guard Derrick Dockery, who’d been without a job the entire preseason, and fullback Tony Fiammetta. The Cowboys didn’t have a single fullback on the roster.

Garrett said the Cowboys had been keeping an eye on Dockery, an eight-year veteran who lives in the Dallas area.

better at holding onto the ball. Turnovers once again hurt them this week and that is something that needs fixed in a hurry.

If that gets fixed, the Colts should be all right going forward.

Colt coach Randy Montoya knows what needs to be fixed and it’s something he will drill into the heads of this year’s team. I would expect a very tough week of practice at the Institute.

Roswell

I like the fact that Roswell was able to put up 54 points this week, but I dislike the fact that the defense gave up 35 points.

“He plays with some aggressiveness and some snap to him,” Garrett said. “He has some position flex, but more than anything else some veteran experience in the interior of the line.”

They can use all the knowledge and experience they can get. The other backups are as unproven as the new starters.

Costa said Kosier helps with many of the calls he has to make, and Romo said he will help, too.

The big thing is the on-the-job experience they’ll have to get.

“We need to be thinking the same thing,” Romo said.

Romo added he’s trying to help guide them as much as he can on the practice field and in team meetings. He goes back and forth between pats on the back and kicks in the rear.

“At different times you get on them. You have to. I think that’s part of the position, part of what some guys need,” Romo said.

“Other times, they need encouragement. They’re getting ripped three times by a coach, right in a row, they need you to come over and let them know that, ‘Hey, you’re working hard, doing right, you’re going to make mistakes.

You just have to understand now that you can’t make that same one again. You learned it, boom, move on, don’t let it happen again.”‘ Garrett’s confidence in the linemen is typical of his outlook for the whole club. After all, they’ve yet to miss a block or lose a game so far this season.

“When you’re zero wins and zero losses with the whole season in front of you,” Garrett said, “I think you are hopeful.”

James Singleton looked great on Saturday and put up some monster numbers — 92 rushing yards, 240 passing yards, four rushing touchdowns and two passing touchdowns.

That is a sign that Roswell’s offense is on the track that Coyote coach Robert Arreola wants.

However, I would suspect that allowing 35 points to Kirtland Central is not something Arreola wants out of his defense.

Buckle down on the defensive side — and with Speedy Faith in charge, they will — and the Coyotes are contenders. kjkeller@roswell-record.com

Obama says GOP must back US first, create jobs

DETROIT (AP) — President Barack Obama used a boisterous Labor Day rally to put congressional Republicans on the spot, challenging them to place the country’s interests above all else and vote to create jobs and put the economy back on a path toward growth. “Show us what you’ve got,” he said.

In a partial preview of the jobs speech he’s delivering to Congress Thursday night, Obama said roads and bridges nationwide need rebuilding and more than 1 million unemployed construction workers are itching to “get dirty” making the repairs. He portrayed Congress as an obstacle to getting that work done.

I’m going to propose ways to put America back to work that both parties can agree to, because I still believe both parties can work together to solve our problems,” Obama said at an annual Labor Day rally sponsored by the Detroitarea AFL-CIO. “Given the urgency of this moment, given the hardship that many people are facing, folks have got to get together. But we’re not going to wait for them.”

“We’re going to see if we’ve got some straight shooters in Congress. We’re going to see if congressional Republicans will put country before party,” he said.

Congress returns from its summer recess this week and the faltering economy and jobs shortage are expected to be a dominant theme.

Besides spending on public works, Obama said he wants pending trade deals passed to open new markets for U.S. goods. He also said he wants Republicans to prove they’ll fight as hard to cut taxes for the middle class as they do for profitable oil companies and the wealthiest Americans.

The president is expected to call for continuing a payroll tax cut for workers and jobless benefits for the unemployed. Some Republicans oppose extending the payroll tax cut, calling it an unproven job creator that will only add to the nation’s massive debt. The tax cut extension is set to expire Jan. 1.

Republicans also cite huge federal budget deficits in expressing opposition to vast new spending on jobs programs.

But Obama said lawmakers need to act — and act quickly. “The time for Washington games is over.

The time for action is now,” he told a supportive union crowd that Detroit police said was in the thousands.

The event at a General Motors Corp. parking lot in the shadow of the automaker’s headquarters building had the sound and feel of a campaign event, with the union audience breaking into chants of “Four More Years” throughout the president’s 25minute speech.

Obama could be including himself in that call for action. His remarks came as he’s facing biting criticism from the GOP for presiding over a persistently

weak economy and high unemployment. Republicans dubbed him “President Zero” after a dismal jobs report last Friday showed that employers added no jobs in August — which hasn’t happened since 1945. The unemployment rate, meanwhile, remained unchanged at 9.1 percent.

The report sparked new fears of a second recession and injected fresh urgency into Obama’s efforts to help get the unemployed back into the labor market — and improve his re-election chances. No incumbent in recent times has been reelected with a jobless rate that high, and polls show the public is losing confidence in Obama’s handling of the economy. His approval rating on that issue dropped to a new low of 26 percent in a recent Gallup survey.

GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney said the report was disappointing, unacceptable and “further proof that President Obama has failed.” Romney is scheduled to get ahead of Obama by outlining his job-creation plan in a speech Tuesday in Nevada, two days before the president addresses Congress.

Tax credits for businesses that hire and spending on school construction and renovation also are expected to be part of Obama’s proposal.

Underscoring the political dueling under way over the economy, Obama plans to visit Richmond, Va., on Friday, the day after his speech, on the first of many

trips he’ll make to rally the public behind his plan.

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., one of Obama’s fiercest critics, represents part of Richmond.

Obama’s broader goal with the speech is to make a sweeping appeal for bipartisan action on the economy by speaking not just to the lawmakers in front of him but also to the public at large. In that sense, the speech will mark a pivot from dealing with long-term deficit reduction to spurring an economic recovery.

Aides say Obama will mount a fall campaign centered on the economy, unveiling different elements of his agenda heading into 2012. If Republicans reject his ideas, the White House wants to use the megaphone of his presidency to enlist the public as an ally, pressure Congress and make the case for his reelection.

“People will see a president who will be laying very proposals significant throughout the fall leading up this next State of the Union” address, Gene Sperling, director of Obama’s National Economic Council, told The Associated Press in an interview.

While Obama has said any short-term spending proposals will be paid for over the long term, aides say the speech will not offer details on what deficit reduction measures would be used to of fset such spending. The speech also is not expected to include a

detailed plan to resolve the housing crisis, a central cause behind the weak economy that has vexed the White House since the beginning of Obama’s administration.

Sperling suggested that Obama would address the housing issue separately during the fall.

Meanwhile, the Chamber

of Commerce unveiled its own jobs plan on Monday.

In an open letter to the White House and Congress, the business lobby called for measures to immediately boost employment, including stepped-up road and bridge construction, more domestic oil drilling and temporary tax breaks for corporations.

NM classrooms deal with textbook shortage due to budget cuts

In this Aug. 30, photo, Mountain View Middle School eighth-grade science instructor, Cheryl Kerby, center, uses a smart board projector during her lessons in Rio Rancho. In some classrooms across the state, students are more likely to be cracking open a laptop or pulling out a work sheet than opening a textbook. State funding for textbooks has taken a dive in recent years.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Homework usually means sitting down and cracking open a textbook.

But in some classrooms across the state, students are more likely to be cracking open a laptop or pulling out a work sheet.

State funding for textbooks has taken a dive in recent years. Textbooks are purchased from the instructional materials budget, which is separate from the operational budget, and funding is based on the 40th-day enrollment figures from the previous year.

A few years ago, the statewide instructional materials budget was $39 million, but that has been slashed by more than half, according to Tom Sullivan, executive director of the New Mexico School Superintendents Association. Larry Behrens, spokesman for the New Mexico Public Education Department, said that budget was $15.1 million this year.

“It’s a huge issue statewide,” Sullivan said. “That fund has continued to be eroded and has made a dramatic effect on districts.”

At Rio Rancho Public Schools, for example, textbook funds went from $100 per pupil in the 2007-08 school year to the

current level of $36 per student.

RRPS board President Don Schlichte said the state requires the district to adopt new textbooks every year but doesn’t provide enough money to pay for those books.

Many middle and high school teachers have only about 40 books for the 120 to 170 students they teach each day.

While the state requires the districts to adopt new books each year, it doesn’t require that they buy them immediately.

Albuquerque Public Schools is facing the same cuts as the other districts, but it doesn’t have the same textbook shortages as Rio Rancho because the district decided to delay buying new books, APS spokeswoman Johanna King said.

Textbooks for various subjects are adopted on a staggered six-year cycle, so a district might adopt science books one year and math the next. This year’s adoption involved a new social studies text, and that’s why in many districts those classes are particularly feeling the pinch.

APS classes are not because its students are using social studies texts that are about six years old, King said. The district will update its books as funds become available.

Rio Rancho teachers are having to find alternative ways to provide class materials, said Rio Rancho Public Schools Associate Superintendent Carl Leppelman. Leppelman said textbooks can cost anywhere from $60 to $130. Rio Rancho received a total of $597,592 this year, compared with $2 million in 2007, when it had fewer students.

Mountain View Middle School Principal Julie Arnold said teachers are adapting.

She said some are referring students to websites that have content similar to what is being taught in class and are relying more heavily on classroom time — rather than homework — to provide instruction.

Some are providing work sheets for homework assignments.

“Teaching and learning is still taking place,” she said. “They are just relying more on technology.”

A student who does not have access to technology is allowed to check out a textbook, and teachers also have a limited number of copies of the textbook on CD, she said.

Arnold said the lack of textbooks is not necessarily a bad thing, as teachers are embracing the use of technology.

“The future of education is wrapped up in technology,” she said. “I don’t really see a downside of this. There are some schools out there that don’t really even rely on textbooks.”

For Rio Rancho, a district where most students have access to the Internet at home, that may not be a problem, but New Mexico is below the national average when it comes to Internet access, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In New Mexico, 65 percent of households have Internet access. The national average is 73.5 percent.

Allan Tapia, interim superintendent for Bernalillo Public Schools, said 78 percent of the district’s students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and of those, most don’t have Internet access at home. He said BPS faced the same funding shortage but used operational money to supplement the instructional materials budget.

“But that still means we had to take money from something else,” he said. “We had to make cuts.”

Pulling from the operational budget allowed the district to purchase new social studies textbooks for grades six, eight and

Lee still poses flood threat in South SAUCIER, Miss. (AP) — While Lee’s winds have lost some of their punch, forecasters warn that its slowmoving rain clouds pose a worse flooding threat to inland areas with hills or mountains in the coming days.

The massive storm system dumped more than a foot of rain in New Orleans and spawned tor nadoes

elsewhere before it weakened to a tropical depression Sunday night. Its remnants were expected to continue to march to the northeast.

Areas of Alabama, Louisiana and Mississippi near the coast reported scattered wind damage and flooding, while New Orleans levees and pumping system were doing their jobs.

National Hurricane Center specialist Robbie Berg said Lee’s flash flood threat could be more severe as the rain moves from the flatter Gulf region into the rugged Appalachians.

Closer to the Gulf, the water is “just going to sit there a couple of days,” he said. “Up in the Appalachians you get more threat of flash floods.”

nine through 12. Seventh-graders are still using the old textbooks, he said, because the books were still in good shape and had not changed much since they were last adopted seven years ago.

At the elementary level, students have readers but are not allowed to take them home. The district is relying on in-class technology, projects and other materials to provide instruction.

“Books are only a resource,” Tapia said.

“They are not the curriculum. Bringing other things into the classroom to teach is the direction most school are moving.”

details of my “surprise.” When I went to our mailbox, I found two invitations to my party that were undeliverable. I pretended I’d forgotten to pick up the mail and asked him to get it.

Should I tell my husband I know about the party or continue to play “dumb”? I have been told in so many ways that it’s getting harder not to say anything, but I don’t want to ruin this for him, either. I feel guilty for knowing. What should I do?

NOT SO SURPRISED

Family Circus

DEAR NOT SO SURPRISED: Stop feeling guilty — you did nothing wrong. Keep your mouth shut and act surprised. Your husband is going to a lot of trouble to give you a special gift, and you should accept it in the spirit in which it is being given.

Dear Heloise: Years ago in a Heloise column, I read that there was a use for USED POSTAGE STAMPS, and I have saved many during my working years. Do you know where I can send them?

Yes, I do, and I am happy to reprint the information. Stamp Camp USA is located in Pennsylvania, and it welcomes stamps.

The camp was founded in 1995 and introduces stamp collecting to children with a year-round program.

Stamp Camp can use donations of new and used stamps (both U.S. and foreign), as well as numerous office supplies, craft supplies and stamp-collecting supplies. Go to the website for exact supply needs: www.stampcampusa.org. Some examples of what it can use? All sizes of envelopes, copy paper, ribbon, pipe cleaners, buttons, etc.

Send your canceled stamps and other donations to: Stamp Camp USA, 117 Court St., Suite A, Elkland, PA 16920. You also can contact Stamp Camp USA by phone at 814-258-5601. This is a wonderful program that helps kids learn the joys of stamp collecting while also recycling.

Dear Readers: Recently, I ran some hints about customer-service issues, both from the customer’s perspective and from the salesperson’s view. A reader wrote in with some additional requests of salespeople. Here is a selection: * Don’t eat or sip a drink when I am asking you a question. * I have my debit card and ID. Give me a moment to get them out. * All tags should be on the merchandise so you won’t have to call for a price check. * Please don’t use the phone for personal calls. * If I unfold an item and try it on, just say “Thank you” and take care of putting it back.

Going the extra mile will bring the customer back. I always tell the manager about salespeople who treated me well.

Thanks for the feedback.

Dear Readers: Websites can show you pictures of your medications! (Your pharmacy also should have this information.) If you come across a loose pill and don’t know what it is, there usually is a number embedded or stamped on the pill. Type that number into an Internet search window, and the name and dosage of the medication should pop up. The only caution? The number won’t tell you the age of the pill; it may be expired.
