CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — President Barack Obama inherited a wreck of an economy, “put a floor under the crash” and laid the foundation for millions of good new jobs, former President Bill Clinton declared Wednesday night in a rousing Democratic National Convention appeal aimed at millions of hardpressed Americans yet to decide how to vote.

Animal cruelty cases have made the news. Two of the worst incidents occurred in the county during August. Luis Baltazar, 47, was arrested and charged with extreme animal cruelty after neighbors reported their suspicions to the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office. Baltazar excused his actions, saying he was tired of the dogs barking. The dogs were confiscated and

SANTA FE (AP) — A federal judge Wednesday sentenced Ponzi schemer Doug Vaughan to 12 years in prison, saying the disgraced real estate executive’s scheme that bilked more than 600 investors out of $75 million has made him more notorious than famed New Mexico outlaws like Billy the Kid. “I don’t think despicable covers it quite frankly,” U.S. District Judge Bruce Black said of Vaughan’s actions after reading letters from victims, many retired, who lost their life savings. “Unfortunately, you have become the most infamous criminal in New Mexico history. You have exceeded Billy the Kid, (train robber) Black Jack Ketchum, others who have been notorious in this territory.” The 64-year-old Vaughan has been under house arrest for nearly two years. He appeared gaunt, pale and on the verge of tears throughout the sentencing

hearing. He looked down, often closing his eyes, as several victims talked of the betrayal of trust from the one-time family friend who has admitted running the scam that snared victims from Washington state to New Jersey. Vaughan pleaded guilty to two felony charges as part of a plea agreement reached in December. While some of his victims called for that agreement to be thrown out and the maximum possible sentence imposed, Fred Mossman of Albuquerque, told the judge Vaughan was a compassionate man who gave a lot to the community over the years. Vaughan made eye contact with him, nodding as he walked away from the podium. Three other Albuquerque investors, however, told how they were ruined by their association with Vaughan.

Kutless concert, Sept. 13 JULIA BERGMAN RECORD STAFF WRITER

Top-selling moder n rock/worship band Kutless will soon be striking a chord in hopes of making a difference in the lives of impoverished children. The band will take to the road Sept. 12 as the headliner for the 23-city Believer Tour. Roswell will be Kutless’ second stop. “Our focus for our band and our music and our live show is to not only doing hopefully the best we can at providing an excellent show but also our heart is to impact people’s lives,” said lead singer Jon Micah Sumrall. Portland, Ore.-based Kutless, who have been together for 10 years, features Sumrall on vocals, bass player Dave Luetkenhoelter, guitarists James Mead and Nick Departee and drummer Kyle Peek. Joining Kutless on the tour will be Grammynominated rockers Fireflight, Minneapolis, Minn.-based rock band Hyland, southern-rock newcomers Rhett Walker Band, and author/ speaker painter Eric Samuel Timm. The tour will be presented by Compassion International, the world’s largest Christian child development organization that partners with local churches to help permanently end child poverty. The tour will give Compassion a platform to delineate its mission and to help secure more children sponsors.

Sumrall and his wife Shannon have sponsored a girl through Compassion for the past 12 years. And over the years, each of the band members has individually sponsored children through the organization. Kutless often incorporates its Christian roots into its music. “You kind of just write songs about your life, what you’re going through and who you are. I think most artists do that. For us our faith is a part of who we are and it’s a big part of our lives,” Sumrall said. “I almost feel like to delete that out of our songs would actually be taking a big part away from who we are as people. It’s a very natural integration for us.” Sumrall said, overall, the song that resonates most with Kutless fans is the successful radio single, “What Faith Can Do.” Fans often share their stories with the band of how their faith helped them through their struggles. The testimonies are so moving that the band created an impact page on its website to share them. The Believer Tour takes its name from the band’s newest studio album, Believer, which debuted at No. 1 on the iTunes Christian Albums chart earlier this year. Kutless will play at Grace Community Church, 935 Mescalero Road, Sept. 13, at 7 p.m. T ickets can be purchased on the band’s website kutless.com.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Hispanics with the highest profiles in this year’s political conventions, Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida and Mayor Julian Castro of San Antonio, stand as opposites in a cultural and political split that has divided millions of U.S. Latinos for decades. Republicans chose Rubio, who is Cuban-American, to introduce Mitt Romney at the party’s convention last week. Democrats, meeting this week in Charlotte, N.C., picked Castro, who is MexicanAmerican, as keynote speaker, the role that launched a young Barack Obama to national political prominence. Although they often are lumped together as Hispanics, Rubio and Castro are emblematic of acute political distinctions between Mexican-Americans, who are the largest Latino group in the U.S., and CubanAmericans, who are the most politically active. Despite their shared language, these two constituencies have different histories in the United States and are subjected to distinctions in immigration policy that go easier on Cuban immigrants. “Historically, many Cuban-Americans for the past few decades have tended to be a little more conservative. So it’s not surprising that you would see Sen. Rubio and the Republican nominee for Senate in Texas, Ted Cruz, running as Republicans,” Castro told The Associated Press. “And I don’t begrudge them for that. I think the policies they espouse are wrong, are not the best ones. But, you know, they’re doing what they believe. And I applaud them for that.” Rubio, 41, was born in Miami. His parents left their native Cuba for the U.S. 21⁄2 years before Fidel Castro overthrew the Cuban government. Fiftynine percent of Cubans in the U.S. in 2010 were foreign-born, according to the Pew Hispanic Center, and three-quarters were American citizens. Julian Castro, 37, was born in the U.S., as were his parents. Almost 64 percent of people of Mexican descent in the country are U.S.-born, according to the Pew Hispanic Center. Moises Venegas, a retired Mexican-American educator and Latino community activist in Albuquerque, N.M., said the two groups have little in common besides a historical connection to Spain, and Spanish

surnames. “The Cubans have never been one of us,” Venegas said. “They didn’t come from Chihuahua or Sonora in Mexico and from poor backgrounds. They came from affluent backgrounds and have a different perspective. The Republican Party also has opened doors just for them.” Pedro Roig, a CubanAmerican attorney and senior researcher at the Institute for Cuban and CubanAmerican Studies in Miami, disputed the notion that there is significant rivalry between the groups. He attributes divisions between Cuban- and Mexican-Americans in part to geography and noted that many in the Cuban community admire Castro’s selection as the Democrats’ keynote speaker. Of the 52 million Latinos in the U.S., 33 million are of Mexican descent, followed by 4.7 million who are Puerto Rican and 1.9 million of Cuban descent, Pew Hispanic Center numbers show. Immigration is the greatest source of division between the groups, with Cubans having an easier and faster route to legal residency and citizenship. Early migrations of Cubans included upper- and middle-class families, but people who came to the U.S. during the 1980s Mariel boatlift were not as well-off. Cuban-Americans began embracing the GOP in the early 1960s after the Bay of Pigs invasion, which failed to topple Fidel Castro. The loyalty deepened after President Ronald Reagan courted Cubans with his antiCastro policies. The U.S. amended the Cuban Adjustment Act of 1966, which had provided Cubans in the country with temporary visas and a path to legal citizenship, with what is known as the “wet foot, dry foot policy.” The 1995 measure allows Cubans who reach American shores, “dry foot,” to apply for legal residency and eventually citizenship. Cubans who are intercepted at sea, “wet foot,” are returned to Cuba or sent to another country that will accept them. By comparison, Congress has for years refused to rewrite immigration laws to provide U.S. residency for immigrants in the country without legal permission, many of whom are from Mexico. It also voted down a bill that would have given residency to immigrants brought to the country by their parents who entered or stayed illegally.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Iraq’s acquiescence in possibly allowing Iranian weapons deliveries to the Syrian regime demonstrates Washington’s limited influence in postwar Iraq, its inability to halt Syria’s 18-month conflict and its continued struggle against Tehran for supremacy in the region. U.S. of ficials said Wednesday that Iraq had shut down the movement of Iranian aid to the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad earlier this year, but that suspected arms deliveries resumed in July. And three U.S. senators warned Baghdad that it risked damaging relations with the U.S. if it is allowing Iran to use Iraqi airspace to deliver weapons to Syria. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to discuss the information publicly. Iraq’s government said Iran had assured it that the flights to Syria were delivering only humanitarian aid, and challenged the U.S. to prove otherwise. It was the latest example of Baghdad’s warming relations with Tehran and weakening ties with Washington, after a decade in which the U.S. spent hundreds of billions of dollars and lost almost 4,500 lives after the 2003 invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein’s dictatorship and tried to stabilize the country. “The Iranians have been so explicit, so clear about their unyielding support for the murderous Assad regime,” State Department spokesman Patrick Ventrell said. “All of this destructive assistance should stop, whether it’s materiel, whether it’s direct training and assistance to help stage manage the repression.” Ventrell declined to delve into the details of diplomatic discussions, but the U.S. official said the issue of Iranian weapons transfers to Assad’s forces has been a bone of contention for several months, with American intelligence noting a significant increase in the number of flights over Iraq as the Syrian regime has gotten

more desperate. The resumed flights were first reported by The New York Times. White House spokesman Tommy Vietor said Iraq has taken steps in the past to meet its U.N. Security Council obligations to prevent Iran from exporting weapons. “It must continue to do so,” he said in an email. On a visit to Baghdad, Sen. Joe Lieberman, IConn., was far more blunt, calling into question the long-term partnership Iraq and the United States agreed to in 2008. “This kind of problem with these Iranian overflights can make it more difficult to proceed with the Strategic Framework Agreement in the manner that the prime minister and we would like to see happen,” Lieberman told reporters in Baghdad. “So I hope this is cleared up quickly.” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., blamed the Obama administration for letting U.S. influence in the Middle East slip. Sen. John McCain, RAriz., also was on the trip. “This region is about to explode,” Graham said. Iraqi leaders, he added, are “probably not pushing back on Iran ... because they don’t see how this ends. There’s an amazing lack of American leadership, and it’s beginning to show on all fronts.” The issue of the overflights reflects a trifecta of worries for the United States. Iraq is a fragile democracy sandwiched by long-time Shiite allies Iran and Syria, a country in the midst of a brutal civil war that has now killed at least 23,000 people, according to activists. The Obama administration has been touting Syrian rebel advances in recent weeks, insisting that the tide of the war is turning against Assad. But Iranian support for Assad is one of the factors that could greatly prolong the conflict, especially as the U.S. and other Western powers insist on staying out of the conflict militarily and not providing weapons to the antiAssad opposition.

Dinosaur more like Frankenstein? NEW YORK (AP) — A New York judge has expressed surprise a dinosaur skeleton seized by the U.S. government is a composite of several ancient creatures, what he calls a “kind of Frankenstein model.” Judge Kevin Castel made the observation Wednesday as he ques-

tioned a lawyer for a Gainesville, Fla., fossils dealer. The judge says lawyers must learn more about the specimen seized in June after it was sold by a Dallas-based auction house for $1 million. The U.S. government says it is certain the skeleton came from Mon-

golia and returned.

Attor ney Michael McCullough says the dinosaur skeleton was assembled from the bones of several dinosaurs. He argues it should be retur ned to its owner because it’s not a sure thing the bones originated in Mongolia.

OPINION

The economy should be the news, but too often isn’t

Gasoline is closing in on the $4 p er g al l on m a r k he r e. I t ’ s passed that in more progressive states. Milk, bread, meat, laundry detergent — except for the value of our homes, virtually every consumer cost is on the rise. Unemployment remains above 8 p er c e n t. A nd t h a t n u mb e r isn’t trustworthy. Our employment base has shrunk, and, if yo u ad d b ac k t h e m e n a n d women who have stopped looking for work altogether, unemployment is likely closer to 16 percent. To quote Bill Clinton’s 1992 campaign: It’s the economy, stupid. Only for Clinton, guess what? He inherited an economy that was growing. The 1990-1991 recession lasted eight months and was due almost entirely to the savings and loan collapse. For the last three quarters of

1991 the economy was on the rebound. Yet Clinton, in cooperation with the media, convinced vote rs t h e e co n o m y wa s i n t h e tank. In fact, it is easy to make a case that Clinton’s 1992 tax hike — his first legislative initiative — caused the economy to recede again. Clinton’s biggest claim to econ o mic f a me i s “ cr ea tin g” a budget surplus. Even ther e, h o we ve r, h e s t r e tch es m or e than a bit. Republicans won Congress in 1994. With them

came welfare reform and budget reform. New Mexico’s Sen. Pete Domenici had a greater role in creating the surplus than Clinton. F or s om e od d r e aso n, t he media forgets Clinton’s dot.com economy was overheating as he and his staff were taking furniture from the White House and pouring Super Glue on computer keyboards to welcome the new administration. George W. Bush received not only the burst of the high tech economy, with less than one year in office he found himself standing amidst the rubble of one of America’s great financial centers. Few people realize how close al Qaeda came to oblitera tin g o ur e con om y, a nd, i n turn, the world’s economy on Sept. 11, 2001.

It’s fair to say Barack Obama inherited a mess. It’s equally fair to say he’s made it worse. Whether or not Obama was unprepared is moot. He set out with an agenda that had little to do with job creation and everything to do with gover nment exp an sio n. F r om G en er al Motors to banks to the jewel in the crown, our health care system, Obama set his sights on empowering the federal government at the expense of the market. In fact, the market is being vilified. When Obama told business owners large and small, “You didn’t build that,” he was n ot qu o te d ou t of c on t ext . Rather he was working to twist more anti-free market sentiment into the race. Hard to create jobs if you hate the source of job creation. In an er a wh er e t h e n e ws media didn’t play such a power-

ful role — or at least didn’t pick favorites — the economy story would be the story. Day in, day out. But we live in a world where the overwhelming majority of Americans still get their national news via the three big networks. It’s almost painful to wat ch t h e len gt h s Br ia n Williams and his cohorts will go to talk about anything but the economy. It’s not something the Obama campaign wants to talk about, so they’re talking about a “war on wom en ” or ju st si mp ly attacking Mitt Romney personally — anything to take our eyes off our economic morass. Look, our economic numbers are horrific. Did you ever think we’d look back on the halcyon days of Jimmy Carter? We cannot af ford four more years of Barack Obama. © New Mexico News Services 2012

People need to take back elections

Americans heard a lot about the Founding Fathers during the Republican convention last week. The founders’ names are sure to be dropped this week as the Democrats meet. But James Madison and George Washington said a few things you didn’t — and won’t — hear at national party gatherings. Both men repeatedly warned of the danger to our republic inherent in the growth of political parties. “The arts of electioneering will poison the fountains of liberty,” Madison wrote. In his farewell address, Washington sounded the alarm about the “baneful effects” of parties, saying that they would eventually become the country’s “worst enemy” and would leave liberty in ruins. “In the course of time,” said America’s first president, political parties would become “potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people, and to usurp for themselves the reins of government; destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.” In his new book, “The Parties Versus the People: How to Turn Republicans and Democrats into Americans,” Mickey Edwards, a former GOP member of Congress from Oklahoma, sounds the warning again. Edwards writes persuasively that the two political parties have overtaken our electoral system, leading to the current era of partisan demagoguery. Slavish party loyalty trumps political philosophy, be it liberal, conservative or something in between. Edwards lays out a better system that is worth a serious look. He has three key suggestions to fixing the process by which we elect members of Congress. They closely mirror the suggestions we have put forth to improve Missouri’s Legislature. First, join Louisiana, California and the state of Washington in adopting open primaries. In those states, thanks to citizen initiative drives, independent voters no longer have to wait for the general election to have a say in who the top two candidates should be. All candidates, Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians and others, run in the primary together. The general election then pits the top two candidates, whether or not they are from the same party. Imagine what would have happened in the Aug. 7 Senate primary had McCaskill also been in it. The Republicans would have had to seek independents, moderates, and, yes, even Democratic votes. Both parties fought this change in California, which most recently adopted the system. The parties lost. The people won. Second, Edwards suggests redistricting reform, taking politics out of the process by which congressional districts are divvied up. This page has urged several times in recent months that Missouri adopt a nonpartisan redistricting commission similar to those in Iowa and 12 other states. That’s a far better way to draw boundaries than allowing politicians to cut deals to protect their own turf. Finally, Edwards writes that the influence of money is destroying political campaigns. Again, When powerful Republican interests outside of Missouri can put pressure on a candidate to step out of a race by threatening to withhold millions of campaign dollars, the system has been turned upside down. At a fundraiser at the Republican National Convention, Karl Rove, the king of GOP strategists, told a crowd, “We don’t care who the candidate is,” as long as it’s not Todd Akin. George Washington never knew Karl Rove, but he is the embodiment of the “cunning, ambitious and unprincipled men” the nation’s first president warned about. This is the great challenge for Americans: It is time to fix our dysfunction in Congress, not by sending a new batch of extremists or party loyalists to Washington, D.C., but by changing the system to one more in line with what our Founders intended. Edwards puts it this way: “As a citizen, take back your democracy. End partisan rule. Do it now.” Guest Editorial The St. Louis Post-Dispatch

What I ask of Romney and Obama The Republican Convention ended on the theme “Believe in America.” That sounded nice, but it was just another platitude. Mitt Romney’s speech was filled with platitudes: “We will honor America’s democratic ideals. ... We’re united to preserve liberty.” Please. Liberals and conservatives have real dif ferences. We should state them. America is going broke, and tough decisions must be made. To save our future, we must slow the growth of entitlements and military spend-

I want to believe that if Romney is elected, he will finally impose some fiscal discipline and fight to put America on a sustainable course — but his Tampa speech gave me no confidence that he would. Instead, he pandered, saying, “As governor of Massachusetts, I chose a woman lieutenant governor, a woman chief of staff, half of my Cabinet and senior officials. ...” So what?

It’s offensive that politicians force taxpayers to pay $18.3 million to subsidize these pep rallies. Sen. Tom Coburn, ROkla., tried to end the subsidies, saying, “There is no justification for spending public funds on booze, balloons and confetti.” He’s right. But Congress ignored him.

U.S. government banned it from soft drinks.) The main stimulant in modern energy drinks is caffeine. There typically is two to three times more caffeine in energy drinks than in conventional cola soft drinks. The biggest concer n about sports drinks, with their high sugar content, is that they contribute to obesity. Ads for sports drinks suggest that they are necessary for the best athletic performance. The ads would have us believe that we need sports drinks whenever we exercise to replace what we lose in sweat and to maintain energy. This is not true. Sports drinks can be useful during prolonged vigorous exercise. I’m thinking of activities such as a soccer tournament, where a child plays several games in a row, or long-distance running for older kids. But for the vast majority of exercise that kids engage in, water is all they need. Ads for energy drinks

include the message that they boost energy, decrease fatigue and improve mental alertness. But my pediatric colleagues tell me that energy drinks should never be consumed by children and adolescents. In kids, they are more likely than in adults to cause agitation, anxiety, irritability and insomnia. They can even cause heart rhythm problems and seizures. You may not always find caffeine in the ingredient list of energy drinks. But assume that anything marketed as an energy drink contains a stimulant (called a xanthine) that has the same effect as caffeine and can be dangerous for children. So when you are packing your child’s sports bag, skip the sports and energy drinks, and pack a water bottle instead. (Dr. Komaroff is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.

The Republicans did some good things in Tampa, like showing two debt clocks and allowing speakers like Ted Cruz to say, “Rights are secure only when government power is restrained.” But then Mitt Romney spoke. He said nothing of significance. “Believing in America” means objecting when politicians claim they solve our problems. Romney said he has a “plan to create 12 million jobs.” Huh? Why not 13 million? Why not 50? Promising 12 million is an absurd conceit. When politicians say, “Yes, we can,” we should say: No, they can’t! Government fails, but individuals succeed. The Dems are worse. What do they stand for? They say they believe in a progressive, liberal society, but to them that means a giant government that pretends to solve problems, causes new ones and then spends even more to appear to solve those problems. I say “appear” because they never actually do it. President Obama came in full of promises. What’s he accomplished? He expanded George W. Bush’s dangerous debt. Government spending sets peacetime records. He proposed nothing serious to bring Medicare under control. He didn’t curtail our role as world policeman — on the contrary, the administration routinely bombs several populations by remote control. Military spending continues to grow. Here’s what I wish Obama would say this week: “I was wrong to expand government the way I have. I

overreached. Modern liberalism put us on an unsustainable course. I will save America by restoring limited government that keeps the peace but then leaves free people alone.” Hey, I can hope. Mr. President, like you, I believe in social justice. But I believe in Thomas Jefferson’s idea of social justice: a free society where people are unimpeded by bureaucrats and politicians; where people freely trade goods and services — that is, cooperate — without anyone telling us what to do. It means that the government won’t engage in what Frederic Bastiat called “legal plunder”— taking resources from some (mostly working people) to bestow them on others. That’s genuine liberalism — original liberalism. You, Mr. President, have bought into the upside-down distortion of liberalism, where government runs things (much of it on behalf of cronies — the well-heeled and wellconnected) and the rest of us follow directions. That’s not liberalism. Let’s call it what it is: corporatism, state socialism, crony capitalism. Liberalism is about liberty: individual freedom and free markets. Only that can bring us the real hope and change that freedom represents. John Stossel is host of “Stossel” on the Fox Business Network.

Continued from Page A1

from Election Day in a tight race with Republican challenger Mitt Romney. Under criticism from Romney, the Obama camp abruptly rewrote the dayold document to insert a reference to God and to declare that Jerusalem “is and will remain the capital of Israel.” Some delegates objected loudly, but Los Angeles Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, presiding in the largely-empty hall, ruled them outvoted. White House aides said Obama had personally ordered the changes, but they did not disclose whether he had approved the earlier version. The convention hall rocked with delegates’ applause and cheers as Clinton — unofficial Democratic ambassador-in-chief to anxious voters in a tough economy — strode onstage to sounds of “Don’t Stop Thinking About Tomorrow,” his 1992 campaign theme song. He sought to rebut every major criticism Republicans have leveled against the president at their own convention last week in Tampa, and said that in fact, since 1961, far more jobs have been created under Democratic presidents than when Republicans sat in the White House — by a margin of 42 million to 24 million. Clinton accused Republicans of proposing “the same old policies that got us into trouble in the first place” and led to a near financial meltdown. Those, he said, include efforts to provide “tax cuts for higher-income Americans, more money for defense than the Pentagon wants and ... deep cuts on programs that help the middle class and poor children.” “As another president once said, ‘There they go again,”’ he said, quoting Ronald Reagan, who often uttered the remark as a rebuke to Democrats. On an unsettled convention day, aides scrapped plans for the president to speak to a huge crowd in a 74,000 seat football stadium, citing the threat of bad weather in a city that has been pelted by heavy downpours in recent days. “We can’t do anything about the rain. The important thing is the speech,” said Washington Rey, a delegate from Sumter, S.C. Clinton’s speech marked the seventh consecutive convention he has spoken to party delegates, and the latest twist in a relationship with Obama that has veered from frosty to friendly. The two men clashed in 2008, when Obama outran Hillary Rodham Clinton’s wife for the

Democratic presidential nomination. Whatever the past differences between presidents current and past, Obama and his top aides looked to Clinton as the man best able to vouch for him when it comes to the economy, his largest impediment to re-election. As a group, white men favor Romney over Obama, according to numerous polls, but a Gallup survey taken in July showed 63 percent of them view the former president favorably, to 32 percent who see him in unfavorable terms. Republicans have suddenly discovered a lot to like about Clinton — a man they impeached in late 1998 when they ran the House and he sat in the Oval Office. Ryan made no mention of those unpleasantries when he told a campaign audience in Iowa, “Under President Clinton we got welfare reform. President Obama is rolling back welfare reform. “President Clinton worked with Republicans in Congress to have a budget agreement to cut spending. President Obama, a gusher of new spending.” Independent fact checkhave repeatedly ers debunked the claim about Obama’s welfare proposals. Nor did the Wisconsin lawmaker mention that under a balanced budget compromise with Clinton to rein in federal spending, Republicans agreed to create a new benefit program that provides health care for lowerincome children and others ineligible for Medicaid. The changes in the platform came after the Republicans criticized an earlier decision to strip out a reference to God. Romney said that “suggests a party that is increasingly out of touch with the mainstream of the American people. ... I think this party is veering further and further away into an extreme wing that Americans don’t recognize.” Romney had declared in a summertime trip there that Jerusalem was the country’s capital. U.S. policy for years has held that the city’s status is a matter for negotiations between Palestinians and Israelis, and Democrats said at the time he was pandering to Jewish voters in the United States. The switch puts the platfor m in line with what advisers say is the president’s personal view, if not the policy of his administration. “Jerusalem is and will remain the capital of Israel,” it says. “The parties have agreed that Jerusalem is a matter for final status negotiations.

taken to Animal Services. The most severely injured had to be euthanized. The other three remain at Roswell Animal Service. Kennel manager Tammy McKee said that Animal Services gets one or two cases a month. In the past two weeks, she had one puppy and one adult dog in intensive care, both suffering from severe neglect. Around the end of August, Sherif f’s Sgt. Scott Ouillette was on patrol when he saw Daniel Valdez, 43, beating a female Ger man shepherd with a riding crop. Sheriff Rob Coon said Valdez became belligerent and “told the sergeant that he could beat the dog on his own property if he wanted to, and he said he was trying to teach the dog a lesson.” The dog, Scoobydoo, was taken to Animal Services, and Valdez was arrested and charged with animal cruelty. Later, Valdez tried to get Scoobydoo from Roswell Animal Services. They refused to return her. Chaves County Animal Control Of ficer Laura Height said such cases were rare in the county. However on Christmas Eve, Robert Youngblood, 25, allegedly shot his dog in the leg during a violent family argument. Although they represent the extreme, the incidents of neglect and abuse are reported regularly to Animal Control. “We have several pending right now. Most are neglect rather than cruelty,” said Animal Services supervisor Joseph Pacheco. He noted that Animal Services receives two to three calls each day from citizens concer ned requesting welfare checks, but he noted the calls tend to be seasonal. The calls peak, number-

Philip Dugan questioned why Vaughan has received preferential treatment in that he was allowed to live with his girlfriend under house arrest with no bond since his arrest. Dugan also noted that Vaughan was able to negotiate a light sentence when others recently convicted of similar crimes have gotten life sentences or hundreds of years in prison. Prosecutors said they agreed to the plea bargain because for a man of Vaughan’s age and health, it will likely be a life sentence. And a lengthy trial could cost taxpayers $1 million or more. Additionally, U.S. Attorney Ken Gonzales noted, Vaughan has given up any right to appeal the criminal or civil actions against him. He has also agreed to make restitution, though prosecutors acknowledged that

ing between 8 to 9 calls, in the summer months and during days of extreme cold. Three cases were tried in Municipal Court in the past year. According to court records, one defendant was fined $345 and sentenced to five days in Chaves County Detention Center. In addition, she had to pay $129 a day for the five days and had to complete Community Service. It was her second offense. In August 2011, a dog got into a fight and the owner refused to take it in to the veterinarian for treatment. The dog was impounded, but not until the Roswell Police Department were called in to assist Animal Control officers. The court documents state the defendant pleaded guilty to dogs as public nuisances, because they were allowed to run loose. She paid $429 in fines and $54 in court costs per violation. The record, dated July 11, 2012, notes $1,700 in fines were suspended conditional on her serving six months unsupervised probation. Dogs that are allowed free range are a continual problem for the community. They can be lethal for their neighbors and their neighbors’ pets. This week, a man had two dogs tur ned over to Animal Control after they attacked a Chihuahua, breaking its back.

The judge rejected a defense request for a 10year sentence and incarceration at a so-called federal prison camp rather than a traditional lockup, although he did allow Vaughan 48 more hours under house arrest to wrap up personal business before voluntarily surrendering.

Vaughan spoke briefly before his sentencing, apologizing to his victims, saying he has found the Lord and hopes to do God’s work while in prison. He also said his real estate investment scheme, which promised investors higher rates of return than traditional loans, was intended to be an alternative to traditional banks before it spiraled out of control.

Vaughan had victims in a number of states, including New Mexico, Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Wyoming, New Jersey, Oregon and Washington.

They’ve either greatly deceived themselves, or they’re being willfully ignorant of the facts. T ransportation is 98 percent petroleum-based. There is no good alternative to oil for transportation, and there will not be for decades to come at the earliest. “Not electric cars, not hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. There is nothing on the horizon that we can change over quickly from oil. Natural gas is the only thing that can help us be less dependent on oil, but even that proposition, you’re looking at something that’s going to take at least a couple of decades to make any sort of meaningful impact, and it’s going to cost a lot of money.” Mathis said the main thing people don’t understand is that oil powers the transportation of virtually every product. “Everything you buy. Every piece of our moder n economy is oilbased. ... From the carpet we’re standing on, to the paint on the walls. “People who think we can just move away from that — well, it would be nice, to have some diversification so that we’re not dealing with just one source. That’s what makes us vulnerable. That would be real nice. But the simple fact of the matter is there isn’t anything that is going to make a big difference in this area

the UWCC, and uses 100 percent of that money to provide its many services, Perez said. He said some of the more common examples of assistance include help with payments for rent, utility bills, emergency medical transport and bus tickets. “Our United Way funding goes out the front door in ter ms of direct assistance to the public, in the programs listed. “... If you’re going to give to the United Way and you designate it to go to The Salvation Army, just understand that 100 percent of what you give is going into the hands of the person who needs help. We are not holding a nickel back for our own overhead. I don’t believe you can make a better investment.” The local Salvation Army helped with disaster efforts related to the Little Bear fire earlier this summer, providing assistance to hundreds of people. Perez said members from four Salvation Army locations in New Mexico and Arizona were sent to the Ruidoso area to help, and that Roswell’s team was chosen expressly to provide counseling. “I’m very pleased they sent the Roswell team to do chaplaincy; we counseled hundreds. And when we were done, we just

Thursday, September 6, 2012 for a long time.”

The theme for the club’s 2012 industry appreciation banquet was Connect, Commit and Communicate, an approach Mathis said he feels is of major importance in this day and age. “In this setting, you have people who are part of the oil and natural gas business, and for them, I tell them to connect with people outside the business. Communicate with them the essential nature of these commodities, oil and natural gas. Get people in the general public to understand the importance of this stuff.

“... If we don’t have enough oil to run the modern world, really bad things happen really fast. It’s unhealthy for the majority of the American public not to know this.”

Mathis said the idea that oil companies are gouging the public is incorrect, citing that the industry makes about an 8 percent profit margin on their product. He said the figure is in line with the national average for companies across the country. “If people want to be unhappy with companies that make a lot of money, well, they need to be unhappy with CocaCola, and Nike, and Apple, and Google — companies that make well over three times the profit margin that oil companies make. That’s the reality, and that’s what I’m trying to get people to understand.” nvernau@rdrnews.com

returned and went about our business.”

Perez said that at the end of the day, putting food out to those who need it most makes up the lion’s share of The Salvation Army’s commitment to the community. “We do it every day — providing no-cost food to people for a variety of reasons.” He said The Salvation Army’s presence in Roswell becomes even more important when you consider that the number people who need food in the area rises a little bit each year.

The Salvation Army is already preparing for its seasonal drives, and will hold its first Christmas planning meeting on Monday. Perez said the seasonal drives help hundreds each year, and estimated that The Salvation Ar my helped about 600 people last year during Christmas alone.

He said one of The Salvation Army’s mottos is “heart to God, hand to man,” an approach that has entrenched the organization into the fabric of Chaves County. “We are part of the foundation of the community. We are a redemptive agent for the hopeless. People routinely tell us that they have found they are welcome in The Salvation Army. ... A lot of what we do is picking up broken pieces.” nvernau@rdrnews.com

Stars attend NYC funeral of hip-hop mogul Lighty

NEW YORK (AP) — Hip-hop royalty including LL Cool J and Sean “Diddy” Combs packed a standing-room-only funeral chapel Wednesday to pay their respects to music-industry mogul Chris Lighty. Mourners at the Manhattan funeral home also included Missy Elliott, Q-Tip, Russell Simmons, Busta R ymes, 50 Cent and Grandmaster Flash. The 44-year-old Lighty was found dead in his Bronx apartment last week with a gunshot wound to the head. The medical examiner ruled it a suicide, but his family has asked for a second autopsy. Speakers at the funeral, who included family members as well as LL Cool J and Busta Rhymes, didn’t allude to the circumstances of Lighty’s death. Instead they stressed his legacy in the music world and his life as a family man. Mourners filed past the flower-bedecked coffin where Lighty was laid out in a dark suit. A slideshow depicting his life appeared on a screen. By the time the service started, the chapel had become as crowded as a hot nightspot, with security guards only letting people in if someone else left. Lighty had been a part of the hip-hop scene for decades, working with pioneers

like LL Cool J before starting his own management company, Violator. But he was in the midst of a divorce and had been having recent financial and personal troubles. A player in the hip-hop game since he was a child disc jockey, Lighty rose through the ranks at Rush Management, Simmons’ first company, before eventually founding Violator Management in the late 1990s. His roster ranged from Academy Awardwinners Three 6 Mafia to Elliott to up-andcomer Papoose and perpetual star Mariah Carey. He made it his mission not so much to make musical superstars but rather to create multifaceted entertainers who could be marketed in an array of ways: a sneaker deal here, a soft drink partnership there, a movie role down the road. In a 2007 interview with The Associated Press, Lighty talked about creating opportunities for his stars — a Chapstick deal for LL Cool J, known for licking his lips, and a vitamin supplement deal for 50 Cent. “As music sales go down because kids are stealing it off the Internet and trading it and iPod sales continue to rise, you can’t rely on just the income that you would make off of being an artist,” he said at the time.

Cowboys down Giants 24-17 Section

Roswell Daily Record

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys waited all year for another shot at the New York Giants. When they got it in the 2012 season opener, they were ready. So were the replacement officials, who barely were a story as Dallas dominated the Super Bowl champions for much of a 24-17 victory Wednesday night that wasn’t nearly so close.

It won’t make up for the New Year’s Day loss that cost the Cowboys the NFC East title and sent the Giants on their way to the NFL championship. It sure could provide impetus for this season, though, particularly with the discovery of a new game-breaker, Kevin Ogletree. While the officials were expected to be a big focus as the league’s lockout of the

regulars continued, there were no controversies, no blatant mistakes or rampant confusion. The spotlight belonged squarely on the Cowboys, from Tony Romo’s three touchdown passes and 307 yards in the air to DeMarco Murray’s 129 yards rushing to Ogletree’s two scores. Dallas’ defense frustrated Eli Manning and his offense with three sacks, a half-

thing.” OK, it’s not really a rematch — 16 of those Rockets, including David Anaya, R yan Greene and David Strickland, graduated and 24 of those Tigers, including Bryce Grady, Ty Atencio, Michael Perry and Derrick Hirsch, are gone. “(It’s) really hard to say (what the differences are from last year to this year),” Jernigan said. “They don’t have a lot of players they did last year and we don’t have some of the players we did last year.” Some of the faces for Aztec are the same, though. Like Adam Lucero. The 6-foot-1, 190-pound senior quarterback returns to again captain a T iger offense that was notorious for big numbers and outrageous statistics in 2011. “He’s a good athlete and,

Lucero wasted no time in returning to form last week despite his team’s 50-28 loss to Los Lunas. He completed nearly 60 percent of his passes, tossed three touchdowns and threw for 382 yards.

NATIONAL BRIEFS RODDICK’S CAREER ENDS

NEW YORK (AP) — Chants of “Let’s go, Andy!” rang out between points during the last service game of his career, and again before the start of what would wind up as the last return game. Always a fan favorite at the U.S. Open, and the 2003 champion, Andy Roddick headed into retirement with a 6-7 (1), 7-6 (4), 6-2, 6-4 loss to Juan Martin del Potro of Argentina in the fourth round at Flushing Meadows on Wednesday. It was an emotional farewell for Roddick, who sat in his changeover chair, covering his face with a white towel, after sailing a running forehand long on the last point. He choked up during an on-court speech at Arthur Ashe Stadium, telling the crowd, “Oh, wow. For the first time in my career, I’m not sure what to say.” “Since I was a kid, I’ve been coming to this tournament. I felt lucky just to sit where all of you are sitting today, to watch this game, to see the champions that have come and gone,” Roddick told the fans. “I’ve loved every minute of it.” The American surprisingly announced last Thursday, his 30th birthday, that the U.S. Open would be his final tournament. That impromptu news conference came a day before Roddick’s second-round match, and he wound up winning that one, and a third-rounder, too, riding a wave of support in the stands. But those two opponents were ranked 43rd and 59th, and the seventh-seeded del Potro, the 2009 U.S. Open champion, provided a far more daunting challenge — especially once he lifted his energy level and got his big, flat forehand cranked up. The match was suspended because of rain Tuesday night after Roddick took the first point of the opening-set tiebreaker, and they resumed more than 18 hours later in front of thousands of empty blue seats. It took Roddick only four minutes to close that set, fresh and strong as can be, while del Potro was rather sluggish. The key, probably, was the third set. Neither man faced so much as a single break point, and this time it was del Potro’s turn to dominate the tiebreaker. Gaining more traction on his opponent’s once-allpowerful serve, del Potro whipped a cross-court forehand return right at Roddick’s feet on set point. Del Potro’s momentum swing continued when he broke to begin the third set. He hit a drop shot that Roddick chased, grunting loudly, and eventually del Potro deposited a passing winner that left Roddick hanging his head.

Rockets prepared for state title rematch KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

Two hundred seventyeight. That’s how many days it’s been since the Aztec Tigers broke the heart of 49 Goddard Rockets and thousands of their fans. With one Michael Perry run and a hurdling leap by Adam Lucero, Aztec won its first state championship since 1953 and brought the Goddard nation to its knees. Friday, the two teams meet again; this time, far less is on the line. “I can’t speak for them, but I think the only thing on the line for us is that we need to start the season on a winning note,” said Rocket coach Sam Jernigan. “I think that’s the biggest

He’s got a strong arm. “He’s real mobile, so even whenever you might be able to get some pressure on him, he can escape, buy some time and get his eyes downfield. He’s always a threat on any given play.”

Hagerman ready for Falcons in home-opener Talk about polar opposites in Week 1. In Hager man’s season opener against Capitan, the Bobcats scored 35 first-half points in a 48-6 road victory. Loving’s first game didn’t go nearly as well. The Falcons fell to the Carlsbad JV

Nearly 30 years ago, Charles McVay was the driving force behind making softball a prominent sport within the city of Roswell. Now, five months after his passing, Tom Kuemmerle is working to get the softball field on the north side of the Wool Bowl, or McVay’s “office,” renamed in his honor. Kuemmerle got to know McVay as a coach in the late ’70s. McVay approached him and said he needed someone else on staff to make sure he wasn’t too hard on his daughter.

We expect to see a lot of people there.” On the field, Hagerman will have to stop an offense that features quarterback Chaz Sartin and running back Ramon Avitia. Crandall said that the Falcon attack is similar to the one run by Capitan. “Loving’s offense is going to be similar to Capitan. They have some big, huge linemen,” he said. “They are going to try to run it right through us. They will try to run, spread us out and then try

agreed and served as assistant coach for a decade. During that time, he learned McVay’s unorthodox philosophy on running a team. Rather than putting together a squad based solely on talent, he recalls McVay saying “give me a kid with a big heart and a good attitude, and I’ll make a ballplayer out of them.” McVay would do just that, winning numerous city titles and even the state title in 1980.

Rockets shouldn’t have a problem doing that this week. Simply put, Aztec’s rush defense looked more like a sieve than a wall last week. The T iger defense allowed 290 yards on the ground to Los Lunas, 125 of which came in the first half as Los Lunas ran out to a 22-8 halftime lead. A state championship may not be on the line, but there’s one thing that is — Goddard’s schoolrecord regular-season winning streak. The Rockets have reeled off 24 straight victories in the regular season, a streak that started with a 41-17 triumph over Carlsbad on Oct. 9, 2009. Kickoff is set for 7

to run again.” Loving may be down to one big, huge lineman after injuries to Austin Cowart (6-foot, 270 pounds) and Lawrence Granado (5-10, 230) in Week 1. Regardless of who plays on the line, Falcon coach Doug Santo said that both the offensive and defensive lines need to play better. “Well, (we thought we’d be able to run against Carlsbad JV), but we had a lot of breakdowns on both the offensive and defensive lines,” he said. “It was a semi disappointment.

Minor, Kimbrel pitch Braves to 1-0 win

ATLANTA (AP) — Mike Minor held Colorado hitless for six innings, Craig Kimbrel earned a four-out save and the Atlanta Braves beat the Rockies 1-0 on Wednesday night. Minor (8-10) lost a no-hit bid in the seventh when Jordan Pacheco led off with a single. Pacheco stole second, but was stranded when Minor struck out Ramon Hernandez swinging, Chris Nelson on a foul tip and Andrew Brown looking. Minor allowed one hit, four walks and struck out seven. The left-hander threw 63 of 108 pitches for strikes. He left the game when Tyler Pastornicky pinch-hit for him in the seventh. The Braves made it 1-0 in the fourth off Alex White (2-8) when Chipper Jones led off with a single, moved to second when Freddie Freeman walked and scored when shortstop Josh Rutledge threw errantly to first after recording one out on Brian McCann’s fielder’s choice grounder. Atlanta began the night with a two-game lead over St. Louis and a 3 1⁄2-game lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL wild-card race. The Braves had lost 11 of 17. Jose Constanza drew a leadoff walk in the seventh for Atlanta off Matt Ottavino, stole second and moved to third on Pastornicky’s sacrifice bunt. Matt Reynolds and William Harris got the last two outs with strikeouts of Michael Bourn and Martin Prado. White, who was facing the Braves for the first time in his career, allowed two hits, one unearned run and four walks with no strikeouts in four innings. Atlanta continued to struggle offensively despite second baseman Dan Uggla and McCann returning to the lineup. Uggla was benched the last three games with a .208 batting average, and McCann missed the last three games after taking a cortisone shot in his right shoulder. Uggla and McCann combined to go 0 for 7. The Nos. 2-4 hitters — Prado, Jason Heyward and Jones — each left three runners on base, but the Braves did manage to improve to 6-40 this year when scoring two or fewer runs. Atlanta had lost 11 of 17 when scoring two runs or less. Harris pitched the final 1 1-3 innings for Colorado, helping the Rockies’ bullpen run their streak to 15 consecutive scoreless innings in the four-game series.

said. “When we run, we are going to try to combo block to try and open up some holes. With those big guys in the middle, we will try to hit them with our quick passing.” In addition to the quick passing game, Crandall hopes to wear Loving down with an up-tempo offense. “We have been stressing tempo with these guys because we are undersized,” he said. “We are going to really try to wear those guys out.” While winning is always the goal, Santo said that he just wants to see his team improve from its first game. “We are looking forward to playing someone a little bit more

Facing Eric O’Flaherty in the eighth, Dexter Fowler walked with one out and advanced to third on Rutledge’s single. After O’Flaherty struck out Carlos Gonzalez and Rutledge stole second off Kimbrel, the Atlanta closer struck out Pacheco to end the threat. Kimbrel earned his 32nd save in 35 chances. In the ninth, he struck out Hernandez and pinch-hitter Tyler Colvin. After pinch-hitter Jason Giambi walked, Wilin Rosario struck out to end the game. Minor, who singled in the second, improved to 2-3 with a 2.98 ERA in his last seven starts. In his first career start against Colorado on May 5 in Denver, Minor allowed 10 hits and eight runs but received no-decision in the Braves’ 13-9 win.

With this particular team, at this particular moment, (winning) is not the most important thing. “What we are looking for is a significant chunk of improvement from Carlsbad.” For Hagerman to come away with its second victory, Crandall said turnovers and tempo are the key. “Turnovers and tempo are the key,” he said. “If we can get the tempo in our favor the way we want and can be plus three or plus four, we like our chances.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. companies got more output from their workers this spring than initially thought. Productivity rose at a modest 2.2 percent annual rate in the April-June quarter, largely because employers cut back sharply on hiring. Most economists expect productivity will slow later this year, a trend that could boost hiring. The Labor Department said Wednesday that productivity in the second quarter was better than its initial estimate of a 1.6 percent gain. The main reason for the increase was the government revised growth in the second quarter to an annual rate of 1.7 percent, up from an initial estimate of 1.5 percent. That led to more output, which boosted productivity. Productivity is the amount of output per hour worked. Labor costs rose at an annual rate of 1.5 percent, slightly lower than the 1.7 percent initially estimated.

Rising productivity can boost corporate profits. It can also slow job creation if it means companies are getting more from their current staff and don’t need to add workers. Still, there are limits to how much companies can squeeze from their staffs. When that happens, productivity slows and a company typically must hire more workers to keep pace with demand. Economists said they expected productivity will slow from the spring pace for the rest of this year and through 2013. Michael Englund, chief economist at Action Economics, said he was looking for productivity growth at a slight 1 percent or less in 2013. Productivity declined 0.5 percent in the January-March quarter. One reason productivity improved in the second quarter is hiring slowed to just 75,000 jobs a month from April through June. That’s down from an average of 226,000 a month in the first quarter.

Wanda Marie Wallace

Wanda Marie Wallace, 83, of Roswell, passed away on Saturday, Sept. 1, 2012, at ENMMC after a brief illness. She was the daughter of the late Albert and Wanda (Wakefield) Wallace and was bor n Nov. 24, 1928. Wanda attended Eastern Michigan University and the University of Michigan. Wanda worked for Michigan Bell Telephone Co., Utica, Mich., school system and took care of family members most of her adult life. Her love of travel took her to Canada, Europe and Puerto Rico several times. She moved to Roswell in 1988 from Rolla, Mo., and quickly became involved in the community as a volunteer for several organizations. Family and friends were Wanda’s passion and joy. She cherished every occasion she had to spend time with others. Those who knew Wanda loved her hearty laugh, quick wit and caring spirit. She is survived by family members, Ronald George Wakefield, of Layton, Utah; Jeanne Tambouri, of Florida; George and Karen Wakefield, of Dothan, Ala.; Mark Wakefield, of Mount Clemens, Mich.; Jamie (Wakefield) and Kyle Oliver of Evans, Ga.; Gregory and Sandi Wakefield, of Dothan; Matthew Oliver, Mason Wakefield, Justin Oliver, Katie Beth Wakefield, and Brooklyn Oliver, who lovingly called her “Nana”; James Shaune; Vicki Pietrykowski; Brian Shaune; Jackie Shultz; Michael Shaune; and Lori Doak. She also leaves behind many loving friends, especially her dear friend Corrine Meda, of Roswell, and her cat, “Dulcie.” Cremation arrangements are being handled by Anderson-Bethany.

U.S. employers added 163,000 jobs in July, the best month of hiring in five months. The unemployment rate edged up to 8.3 percent. Hiring probably won’t accelerate from that level unless growth picks up or productivity slows, economists say. The government will release the August employment report on Friday. Economists forecast that the economy added 135,000 jobs last month, and the unemployment rate stayed at 8.3 percent. The Federal Reserve closely follows changes in productivity and labor costs to make sure that inflation pressures are not getting out of control. Over the past year, productivity has risen 1.2 percent. That is far below the 3 percent average productivity growth turned in during 2009 and 2010. Those gains were a result of massive job layoffs during the recession as companies slashed costs in the face of falling demand.

Wedding photos can be of the two families separately, including the stepmom. Otherwise, resentment will linger and poison the relationship between stepmom and stepdaughter. ANOTHER STEPMOM

DEAR ABBY

DEAR STEPMOM: I encouraged “Disappearing” to attend the wedding to support her stepdaughter and inject a dose of reality into the “fantasy,” and readers were quick to share their views:

UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: “Disappearing Stepmother’s” June 9 letter brought back memories of my stepdaughter “Amy’s” wedding. Her mother also tried her best to prevent us from being involved. However, Amy included all four of her parents in the wedding. Dad and Stepdad walked her down the aisle together, and her mom and I lit the bride’s candle together (though I’m sure she gritted her teeth when she did it). The bride needs to develop a backbone and stand up to her mother. The dad (who’s paying for half the wedding) should at least put his foot down about the guest list, and invite whomever he and his wife would like to be there.

DEAR ABBY: I, too, am stepmom to two beautiful young women whose mother harbors animosity toward me and my husband. When the girls were kids she filled their heads with lies about us. Their father and I remained noncritical, loving and constant. There were some rocky years, but my stepdaughters and I have made it through. When the younger one was married two years ago, she did a beautiful job including me. Her mother spent the wedding day spewing vile lies about us to anyone who’d listen, and is still bitter these 26 years later. The girls see their mother as she is and do not let her affect their relation-

ship with us. For this I credit my husband, who never tolerated her ill treatment of me. Stepmoms are not looking to be in the spotlight or take anyone’s place. But we are an important part of the modern family and should be treated with the honor and respect we deserve. MADE IT THROUGH

DEAR ABBY: I work in the wedding industry, and all too frequently I see the engaged couple manipulated by a parent in order to hurt the former spouse and alienate the stepparent. It is the bane of my professional existence. They cause so much stress for the couple that I’ve had brides break down and cry in my office and choose to elope rather than deal with the drama. Parents must realize that their children are loved by MANY people, and the best gift they can give them on their wedding day is to set aside differences and old grudges in order to support the couple as they begin their marriage.

DEAR ABBY: I sympathize with “Disappearing,” having myself been ignored at “blended” family events, including weddings. I am also conveniently excluded from family photos. I deal with all of this by staying in the background during events. The gathering is not about me. My stepkids are simply trying to keep the drama caused by their mother to a minimum. They would never hear the end of it from her, and she has been known to go off in public. I know they appreciate my quiet approach because, when not in their mother’s presence, they treat me with kindness, love and humor. MARCIA IN VIRGINIA

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

Dear Readers: When heading away to college, and into a dorm room or apartment, never underestimate the value of a GOOD SET OF TOOLS! Especially at the start and the end of each semester. A back-to-school basics (or first time moving out) kit should include: * Hammer * Wrench * Pliers * Multihead screwdriver * Duct tape (a necessity!) * Nails and screws. Being well prepared may invite students to your room to borrow tools and/or an extra set of hands! To make sure your tools “come back,” buy a decorated set. Homeimprovement stores and some major retailers carry tools that have designs and are not the regular black. If you are using tools you already have, you can code them with bright nail polish or patterned (or colored) duct tape! Make sure your tools are allowed in your dorm. Heloise

P.S.: My father gave me a small set when I first went to college, and I was the hit on my floor! I still use the hammer with pink nail polish on the handle! #####

For Better or For Worse

Dear Heloise: I am an avid recycler, forever forgetful about returning plastic bags to the grocery store, and I find it a nuisance to store them until returned. Now I straighten out the bag, twist and wind it around two fingers, then tuck the “tail” into the middle, forming a little rosette. I hang one bag near my recycle bin to toss the “rosettes” into. When full, I tie the handles and have a neat little bundle to return to the store. Linda in Hickory, N.C.

Dear Heloise: I have a 12-year-old cat that has a problem with her stomach and vomits occasionally. The acid stains the carpet and doesn’t go away, even after cleaning. We just got new carpet, and I would love to hear your suggestions before another accident ruins the new carpet. Laima W., Lahaina, Hawaii Aloha to my friends in Hawaii! Start by scooping up pet (cat or dog) vomit with a big spoon. Once it’s been picked up, mix 1 tablespoon of liquid dish soap, 2 cups of warm water and 1 tablespoon of white vinegar. Lightly dampen the carpet with this mixture and blot until the carpet is dry. Finally, use cold water to remove any remaining residue. If an odor or stain still exists, you may need to purchase a commercial cleaner specially made with enzymes for pet odors and stains, which is available at most pet specialty stores. Heloise #####

Dear Heloise: I recently went on vacation with my two small children. I packed a small container of nonabrasive cleanser and a sponge so that I could clean the tub in the motel. I know that housekeeping cleans the tub daily, but with children who need to take baths, not showers, I felt better cleaning it myself. I figure a little extra cleaning can’t hurt, and it gives me peace of mind. Rachel, via email

Feds vow to prove gross negligence by BP EPA Roswell Daily Record

AP Photo

Hotel owners and supporters demonstrate outside BP's Houston Headquarters protesting their exclusion from the economic claims of the 2010 spill on Thursday, Aug. 23, in Houston. They claim they suffered damages from the spill, but were outside of the geographical area eligible for damages.

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Justice Department is urging a federal judge to ignore BP’s assertion that the Gulf Coast’s natural resources are making a “robust recovery” from its

massive 2010 oil spill.

ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — No one would confuse the Nite Moves strip club with the Bolshoi Ballet, but what the lap dancers do there is art and entitled to the same tax exemption other performances enjoy, a lawyer argued Wednesday in what was surely one of the racier tax cases ever to go before New York’s highest court. W. Andrew McCullough, an attorney for the suburban Albany strip joint, told the Court of Appeals that admission fees and lap dances at the club should be freed of state sales taxes under an exemption that applies to “dramatic or musical arts performances.” He said that lap dancing is an art form and that, in any case, the state is not qualified to make such determinations, and that making such distinctions would be a violation of the constitutional right to freedom of expression. A lawyer for the state rejected that analysis, and authorities are demanding about $400,000 in back taxes from the club. A ruling is expected next month, with possible consequences for the estimated 150 to 200 adult nightclubs

in the state. During Wednesday’s arguments from the club’s lawyer, a skeptical Judge Eugene Pigott Jr. said the women are hired untrained and simply “do what they do.” “We need to get past the idea that somehow this is the Bolshoi,” Pigott said. McCullough acknowledged that, but added: “What we’re saying is the state of New York doesn’t get to be a dance critic.” He presented testimony from a cultural anthropologist who visited the club and concluded that the exotic dancing there qualifies as an art form. Robert Goldfarb, an attorney for the state, said that nobody would visit the club if the dancers didn’t remove their clothes. He also argued that the exemption applies to “choreographed” performances, and what the Nite Moves dancers do does not qualify. At least three members of the seven-judge panel questioned the notion that a performance must be choreographed to be considered artistic. Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman suggested “creative artists in partic-

In a court filing Friday, government lawyers also renewed their vow to prove at trial that BP engaged in gross negligence or willful misconduct leading up to

the deadly rig explosion that killed 11 workers and spawned the nation’s worst offshore oil spill. BP PLC faces billions of dollars in fines if U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier ultimately sides with the government. The memo’s combative language is a sign that BP and the Justice Department aren’t close to a settlement that would resolve the federal government’s claims against the oil giant before a trial scheduled for next year. “It’s a shot across the bow,” said David Uhlmann, a University of Michigan law professor and former chief of the Justice Departenvironmental ment’s crimes section. “Generally speaking, when you see the gover nment use such strong language, it’s intended to signal its readiness to go to trial.” In the filing, government lawyers accuse BP execu-

tives of trying to minimize their role in the disaster and shift blame to blue-collar rig workers and their partners on the drilling project, including rig owner Transocean Ltd. “The behavior, words, and actions of these BP executives would not be tolerated in a middling size company manufacturing dry goods for sale in a suburban mall,” they wrote. “Yet they were condoned in a corporation engaged in an activity that no less a witness than (former BP chief executive) Tony Hayward himself described as comparable to exploring outer space.” The Justice Department was responding to a BP memo urging Barbier to sign off on a proposed settlement of economic damage claims filed by tens of thousands of Gulf Coast residents and businesses. The government said that it

issues clean gas waivers

doesn’t take a position on the merits of that deal but that BP’s Aug. 13 memo contained “plainly misleading representations” that shouldn’t go unchecked.

BP said the Justice Department’s memo makes it clear the federal government isn’t opposed to its proposed settlement with private plaintiffs’ attorneys. BP and plaintiffs’ attorneys both believe the settlement is “fair, reasonable and adequate” and meets all the legal requirements for Barbier’s final approval, the company said in a statement.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration is temporarily waiving clean gas requirements in eight states affected by Hurricane Isaac. Governors requested the waiver because fuel supplies from refineries in the Gulf area were disrupted by Isaac. EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson says extreme circumstances could cause a gas shortage. The waiver lets gas stations sell less environmentally friendly fuel, normally reserved for winter, in addition to the regular fuel they normally sell during summer, when ozone levels are higher. It covers Louisiana, Florida, Tennessee, South Carolina, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and North Carolina. A temporary waiver issued last week only applied to parts of Louisiana. Oil production in the Gulf of Mexico is ramping up after Isaac. The Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement said Tuesday only 3.5 percent of Gulf oil platforms remain evacuated.

“Other issues raised by the gover nment simply illustrate that disputes about the underlying facts remain. BP believes it was not grossly negligent and looks forward to presenting evidence on this issue at trial in January,” the company said.

Attorney W. Andrew McCullough, representing the strip club Nite Moves, right, makes an argument as Assistant Solicitor General Robert M. Goldfarb, representing the NYS Tax Appeals Tribunal, left, listens, Wednesday, in Albany, N.Y. McCullough argued its lap dances are entitled to the same tax exemption that other artistic performances enjoy and the club should qualify for the exemption that covers "dramatic or musical arts performances."

49ers begin season with big hopes for receivers

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) — Randy Moss still carries himself with that same old swagger and avoids saying much about his NFL return after a year away. Mario Manningham has no qualms speaking out about how he wants to show the West Coast what he can do seven months after leading the New York Giants to a Super Bowl title. The San Francisco 49ers are depending on this talented twosome for an upgraded receiving corps in 2012.

He will get his first chance in the season opener Sunday at Green Bay. “When you add some weapons to the mix like Manningham and Moss, you can open it up more,” Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said Wednesday. “On paper they look a little better.” Smith realizes the questions about Moss could be an advantage, perhaps providing some mystery or element of surprise.

He pretended to pull down his pants and moon the Wisconsin Cheeseheads during Minnesota’s playoff win in which he caught two TD passes. “For sure, the unknown,” Smith said of what Moss will offer on game day. “It works both ways, the unknown and what they’re going to do. A guy like Randy and the unique toolset that he has creates a lot of problems. I think it gives them a lot to think about — the big-play potential, the matchup problem that he is.”
