JAZZ FESTIVAL

September 18, 2011

Men from all over the country, who served for the 6th Bomb Wing and the 40th Bomb Squadron at Walker Air Force Base, came together Saturday evening at the Sally Port Inn to attend the first banquet in their honor. The Walker Aviation Museum Foundation Board honored Walker Air Force Base Veterans at the event entitled “Lest We Forget.” The program coincided with the 70th anniversary of the establishment of the

Roswell Army Flying School, the first anniversary of the opening of Walker Aviation Museum and the reunions of both the 40th Bomb Squadron and the 6th Bomb Wing.

Mayor Del Jurney presented a proclamation at the banquet declaring Sept. 17, 2011 as Walker Air Force Base Veteran’s Appreciation Day. The mayor also expressed his appreciation towards the Field of Honor events that took place at the New Mexico Military Institute.

“As a mayor of a small town of 50,000 plus people, the pride I felt, in watching the cadets carry, indi-

vidually, 1, 500 flags to be put in a formation, with such dignity and integrity, for the people that they represented and honored. And for the Institute to allow that to stand like that over the course of the past week for people to just drive by at all hours of the day and night to stop and reflect and share, that was pretty special.”

Highway dedicated to two local state policemen JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

A four-mile portion of U.S. Highway 70 in southeast New Mexico will be named after two Roswell natives and state policemen who lost their lives in a helicopter crash. The highway dedication will commemorate Patrolman Damon Talbott and Patrolman Ramon Robert Solis.

Both Solis and Talbott were based in Roswell.

The medical helicopter crashed east of Roswell around 3:40 p.m. on Oct. 19, 2001. The helicopter, owned by Eastern New Mexico Medical

Center, was returning from a training exercise.

Two others were seriously injured in the accident.

New Mexico State Transportation Commissioners approved the naming the portion of the highway the “Patrolman Damon Talbott and Patrolman Ramon Robert Solis Memorial Highway” during their monthly meeting held in Las Cruces on Thursday.

At the time of the accident, Talbott, 21, was the youngest state police of ficer ever to die on duty. Talbott was born

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is keeping up his appeal for public support of his $447 billion proposal to boost jobs and consumer spending by urging Americans to press Congress to pass the legislation. “No more division or delay,” he said.

In his weekly radio and Internet address Saturday, he focused on a message that has become central to a presidency struggling to address stubbornly high unemployment numbers and dipping approval of his handling of the economy.

The president announced his jobs legislation to a joint session of Congress last week and has since gone outside Washington to build a case for its passage. He has been to Virginia, Ohio and North Carolina.

“The No. 1 issue for the people I meet is how we can get back to a place where we’re creating good, middleclass jobs that pay well and offer some security,” he said.

His address Saturday came in the face of sobering public opinion ratings for the president.

A New York Times/CBS News poll released Friday showed nearly half of those surveyed worried the economy was headed for another recession and nearly three out of four said they believe the country is on the wrong

Reno airshow plane crash kills nine

See BILL, Page A3

RENO, Nev. (AP) — The death toll rose to nine Saturday in an air race crash in Reno as investigators deter mined that several spectators were killed on impact as the 1940s-model plane appeared to lose a piece of its tail before slamming like a missile into a crowded tarmac.

Moments earlier, thousands had arched their necks skyward and watched the planes speed by just a few hundred feet off the ground before some noticed a strange gurgling engine noise from above.

Seconds later, the P-51 Mustang dubbed the Galloping Ghost pitched oddly upward, twirled and took an immediate nosedive into a section of white VIP box seats.

Walk to End Alzheimer’s a success

VANESSA KAHIN RECORD STAFF WRITER The Alzheimer’s Association’s Walk to End Alzheimer’s Saturday morning focused on memory loss — but not necessarily that of Alzheimer’s patients.

Candy Beeman, who attended the event that took place at the Chaves County Courthouse, spoke to the crowd that had gathered at the lawn.

She attended the event with her husband, Ike Beeman.

Beeman shared the story of her mother -inlaw, Irene Beeman, who had Alzheimer’s and passed away last year.

Witnesses who looked at photos of the part said it appeared to be a “trim tab,” which helps pilots keep control of the aircraft.

Reno police also provided a GPS mapping system to help investigators recreate the crash scene.

“Pictures and video appear to show a piece of the plane was coming off,” NTSB spokesman Mark Rosekind said at a news conference. “A component

said her mother -in-law, who lived through the Great Depression, was “green before green was the thing. … Nothing went to waste.”

Once af flicted with Alzheimer’s, Irene would escape the watchful gaze of family members and go out walking. During one instance, Irene Beeman walked in hot weather while wearing nine layers of clothing. During another instance, she climbed a four-foot barbed wire fence.

When the family decided to take Irene to a nursing home, people who did not know her commented on how healthy she looked and questioned the need to place her in a nursing home.

“Alzheimer’s disease is deceitful,” Beeman said.

She spoke of how the family had to learn her mother-

ily to identify anyone who may have been exposed to the highly contagious disease so more cases can be prevented.

Authorities recommend that anyone who’s unsure of their vaccina-

has been recovered. We have not identified the component or if it even came from the airplane ...

We are going to focus on that.”

The dead so far included the pilot and eight spectators. Officials said 54 people were transported to hospitals, but more came in on their own. Eight remained in critical condition late Saturday and nine were in serious condition.

Despite the large number of dead and injured, witnesses and people familiar with the race say the toll could have been much worse had the plane gone down in the larger crowd area of the stands. The plane crashed in a section of box seats that was located in front of the grand-

stand area where most people sat.

“This one could have been much worse if the plane had hit a few rows higher up,” said Don Berliner, president of the Society of Air Racing Historians and a former Reno Air Races official. “We could be talking hundreds of deaths.”

Some credit the pilot with preventing the crash from being far more deadly by avoiding the grandstand section with a last-minute climb, although it’s impossible at this point to know his thinking as he was confronted with the disaster and had just seconds to respond.

Witnesses described a horrible scene after the plane struck the crowd and

sent up a brown cloud of dust billowing in the wind.

When it cleared moments later, motionless bodies lay strewn across the ground, some clumped together, while others stumbled around bloodied and shocked.

Ambulances rushed to the scene, and officials said fans did an amazing job in tending to the injured. Just that morning, the 25 emergency workers at the air show had done a drill for such a large-scale emergency like this.

The crash marked the first time spectators had been killed since the races began 47 years ago in Reno. Twenty pilots including Leeward have died in that time, race of ficials said.

in-law’s language, as she would often substitute words as well as names.

Being called by a different name was something that distressed Beeman’s children, because it made them feel that their grandmother no longer remembered them. This changed when Irene taught the family something they may not have realized about memory loss.

One day, while meeting with one of her granddaughters, Irene admitted she could not remember her name.

“I can’t put a name to you,” Irene said, “but it doesn’t matter, (because) I know you’re special. I know you’re one of my granddaughters.”

Candy Beeman said that, from that moment on, the family looked at memory loss in a dif ferent light.

This prompted them to do a little reprioritizing.

“It didn’t matter if she remembered who we were,” Beeman said of her moth-

er -in-law, “but that we remembered who she (was).”

Beeman, who is the director of the Solana Alzheimer’s Care Unit at Mission Arch Care Center, also said it is important that the loved ones of those with Alzheimer’s disease realize there are others going through the same circumstances.

“The journey may seem lonely,” she said, “but we are not alone.”

Event organizers estimate about 200 people met at the Chaves County Courthouse to walk in honor of someone they know or knew that had Alzheimer’s and to raise awareness of the disease.

Attendees were given one of four colors of artificial flowers. Purple symbolized someone who had lost a loved one to the disease.

Blue represented someone

with Alzheimer’s.

A yellow flower was given to those who support or care for someone with Alzheimer’s disease. An orange flower symbolized someone who supports the cause and the vision of a world without Alzheimer’s disease.

Siobhan Mitchell, director of operations at the Alzheimer’s Association’s Albuquerque office, said everyone got a flower for just showing up to the walk. The Tee-shirts, however, were incentives for raising funds to help the cause.

“All the funds we do raise provide support and services to families dealing with Alzheimer’s,” she said.

a qualifier for the world championship next month in Amarillo, Texas — she made the best time during the first stage of the competition, overall.

“I beat all the boys,” she said with a grin.

Originally from Phoenix, Lenseigne has made a career out of cowboy mounted shooting. Aside from competing, she instructs riders and trains horses. She said she trained her own horse, Justin, to become more acclimated to the sound of gunfire.

Although Justin was skittish at first, Lenseigne said she has won seven world records in cowboy mounted shooting with him.

“He’s amazing,” Lenseigne said of her horse.

The CMSA’s shooting competition attracted com-

petitors from as far as Germany, where restrictive gun laws make it almost impossible to have such events.

Originally from Boklund — which is about 50 miles north of Hamburg — Vanessa Schmidt and Heino Hagge live on a ranch with horses.

Although they enjoy cowboy mounted shooting, they have almost no opportunities to practice the sport in their native country.

“The Ger man gover nment doesn’t want people to have guns,” Hagge said.

He said Germans are able to purchase one gun after taking a course, passing an exam and getting a license.

Once a gun is purchased in Ger many, it must be kept in a special gun safe, Hagge said.

“The gover nment is allowed to come to your house just to find out (whether or not) your guns are secure,” he said.

With all the government procedures involved, owning a gun is a very expensive endeavor in Germany.

This is Hagge’s third time and Schmidt’s second time visiting the Double E Ranch in Gila, New Mexico, where they get to practice their shooting with relative ease.

Hagge said he met Alan Eggleston, the owner of the ranch, when he visited Germany to give a presentation there about cowboy mounted shooting. The horses Schmidt and Hagge used during Saturday’s event came from the Double E Ranch.

“We’re happy … that we’re allowed to do this sport here,” Hagge said.

He said he doesn’t consider the possibility of ever winning an event because it is difficult to practice the sport in Germany and because he doesn’t believe he can be better than American competitors.

“The Wester n style of riding was bor n here,” Hagge said. “A lot of the guys here were able to ride before they were able to walk, it seems like.”

The event Saturday also attracted people from throughout New Mexico, California, Arizona, Texas and Colorado.

Eggleston has been instrumental in bringing cowboy mounted shooting to New Mexico. He said the sport began in Phoenix. He took an interest in it and started to host cowboy mounted shooting clinics and matches in New Mexico.

There is currently a club for cowboy mounted shooting in New Mexico, as well as the annual CMSA state championship.

OPINION

Legislature needs to speed up redistricting efforts

SANTA FE — Time’s a-wastin’.

Tuesday is the end of the second week of the New Mexico Legislature’s special session on redistricting. And not much has happened.

The first encouraging sign emerged the middle of last week when 13 of 15 Republican senators signed a bill redistricting the Senate so that no returning Republican senator gets hurt.

That feat was accomplished soon after Sen. Kent Cravens, an Albuquerque Republican, announced that he will be leaving the Senate to become director of governmental affairs for the New Mexico Oil and Gas Association.

Senate Democrats also have an Albuquerque member, Sen. Eric Griego, who has announced his intent to leave the Senate to run for Congress. With those two advantages, Senate Democrats and Republicans might be able to get together on an agreeable redistricting plan.

It’s about time. The general

timetable reportedly in legislative minds calls for redistricting to be decided in about two weeks, followed by several days of discussion about Gov. Susana Martinez’s 11 agenda items.

Sufficient money has been appropriated for a three-week session ending Sept. 27. By that time, the House, Senate, Democrats, Republicans and the governor need to agree on redistricting of the U.S. House, state House and Senate, Public Regulation Commission and state Board of Education districts.

Mere passage of redistricting legislation does not accomplish the task. Unless bipartisan agree-

Roswell Daily Record

ment can be reached, including the governor, the court is going to end up drawing the new districts at a cost to the state of about $5 million in attorney fees.

It isn’t important to fret about this session costing $50,000 a day. That is 1 percent of my estimated cost to taxpayers of legal fees if everything goes to court.

All parties might as well agree now because if it goes to court, the baby will be split resulting in a least-change compromise. So let’s make those compromises now — even if it takes a few days longer. If it takes the entire 30 days, that is all right too.

Nothing on Gov. Martinez’s agenda is much of an emergency.

The capital outlay work would be good to get started soon. It will create more jobs and the money will come out of severance tax income rather than from the state’s general fund.

It would be a real feather in everyone’s cap if agreements can

be reached. There will be some members leaving the House also, which may help the combining of districts there.

Another consideration is what New Mexico’s population pattern will look like 10 years from now.

Albuquerque’s West Side is projected to continue its rapid growth so it shouldn’t be shortchanged now.

Dona Ana County’s Hispanic population is expected to grow enough that the 2nd Congressional District area of dominance could shift from the East Side in a decade.

One strategy being considered

by Democrats this year is to make the southern congressional district even more Republican so the 1st Congressional District in the Albuquerque area can be made easier for a Democrat to continue winning.

Southern Democrats aren’t happy with the possibility of being thrown under the bus this time

because they think voting patterns will begin shifting in their favor before the end of this decade.

So where is state government’s head right now? Is there a desire to reach accord and save state taxpayers the money for a court solution to redistricting? Or will we see an effort to load up for the 2012 election campaigns?

Gov. Martinez and House Republicans appear to be aiming toward a GOP takeover of the House in next year’s elections while Senate Republicans and Democrats show signs of wanting to make everything work.

For the past decade, and longer, the dynamics have been just the opposite. The House got its work done in a businesslike manner and the Senate was always in uproar. It’s likely due to a change in personalities.

Losing faith in leadership

A recently released poll revealed that Americans have more faith in their military than in their elected leaders.

We know why; in fact, anyone who lives around and interacts daily with military personnel can understand from where that trust comes.

The poll, conducted the Associated Press in partnership with the National Constitution Center, says that the majority of Americans — 63 percent — believe the gover nment, including the ar med forces, is doing a good job of maintaining the nation’s safety and security. Of those polled, 53 percent have deep confidence in the military.

That’s a horse of a much different color from the turbulent years of Vietnam, when returning troops were treated more like criminals than human beings doing a very important job.

The poll also says that almost seven in 10 respondents said they were volunteering, which indicates that even in the depths of a recession and high joblessness, Americans are looking for ways to make their communities better. That’s another sign of hope for those anxious to see this country get back on its feet. And while some gover nment agencies and employees are finding that the preponderance of Americans believes they’re doing good jobs, Congress and the Executive branch — not so much.

It’s hard to feel bad for the boys and girls who actually make the laws.

Although there are, no doubt, some good and principled members of Congress, mostly what the people who elect them see is a pass-the-buck mentality. The jobs bill, which President Obama recently sent to the Hill, falls into that category, with lots of spending that does little but exacerbate the federal deficit and plunge the country deeper into debt.

And, oh yeah — most of the so-called jobs that are supposed to be created happen to target states where unions reign supreme. Right-to-work states won’t see much come their way.

Congress and the president need to take a good, hard look at what Americans are trying to tell them: They want fiscal responsibility, fair and simplified taxation, an end to excessive gover nment bureaucracy, and an emphasis on selfreliance and responsibility.

This country needs to return to the type of government that made us so great in the first place and start doing so now.

Otherwise, come November 2012, a lot of fat cats in the Washington, D.C., area are going to hear the people who sent them there in the first place saying, “Don’t let the door hit you on your way out.”

Guest Editorial The Jacksonville Daily News DEAR DR. GOTT: My husband and I are both in our late 40s. He has suf fered from restless legs syndrome (RLS) for more than 20 years. He has taken different prescription medications that either have not worked or have left him groggy the next day.

A couple of months ago I had some mild heartburn and my legs had that creepycrawly feeling, so I got up and took two Tums. Even though my heartburn did not completely go away, the sensation in my legs did. The next night my husband’s legs were bothering him, so I told him to take two Tums. For the past couple of months he has continued to take them every night. If he forgets and his legs start to bother him, he gets up, takes

Normally, a hypothetical question should not be answered, but in this case it revealed something about the questioner and sparked a controversial, but necessary answer from Rep. Ron Paul.

For those watching the two Monday Night Football games, the question was: “A healthy 30-year-old young man has a good job, makes a good living, but decides, you know what?

Other deficiencies, most notably iron, magnesium, folic acid and B vitamins, are known to cause RLS symptoms in some. Some studies have found that diabetes and other diseases may also lead to RLS. Treatment includes supplementation for deficiency, prescription medications and relaxation techniques.

For other sufferers or those interested in learning more, there are several online sources that discuss symptoms, causes and treatment.

The most popular of these is the Restless Legs Foundation (www.RLS.org).

DEAR READER: Hypoglycemia, or low blood sugar levels, is not a disease, but rather a symptom. It is most commonly seen in diabetics who do not have their sugar levels under proper control. In non-diabetics it is the result of an underlying condition.

For diabetics, carefully managing blood sugar levels and medication use is vital.

In non-diabetics, small, frequent meals throughout the day can help keep blood sugars steady, but this isn’t recommended for long-term treatment, so testing to determine the cause is necessary.

Possible underlying causes include certain medications, tumors, alcoholism, anorexia, hepatitis, kidney disorders and endocrine deficiencies.

Hypoglycemia can be fatal if symptoms are ignored. Signs can include confusion, abnormal behavior, visual disturbances, tremor, anxiety, hunger, sweating, heart palpitations, seizures and loss of consciousness that typically occur between meals or on an empty stomach.

When symptoms occur following a meal, it can be the result of the body producing too much insulin. This is usually seen in those who have had gastric bypass surgery. It is important to note that these symptoms can be the result of other conditions, too, so it is important to seek prompt medical attention, especially if onset is new.

Treatment is twofold. First, blood sugar must be brought back into normal range. Then the underlying cause

Why couldn’t this work in the U.S. gover nment? Why can’t President Obama and his family, his cabinet members and agency heads each “adopt” an unemployed family and help them find meaningful employment? What about the Republican presidential candidates? Michele Bachmann and her husband are experienced in adoptions.

How about all of those rich congressmen and senators? Warren Buffett and Bill Gates think we should pay more taxes. Can’t they be asked to personally do more to help others? They would be a fine example.

If we want smaller government, we will have to pick up the slack. Helping change another life for the better may be the most satisfying work we do on Earth. It is part of my own ethic and I can testify to the satisfaction it has given me. Make it a fad and it could become a trend.

Now, in our two-income households when we buy so much stuff we must rent public storage units for the overflow, we hardly have time for our own families, much less the concerns of others. How many of us know our neighbors?

I was intrigued by a story I read last month in London’s Sunday Times. The story followed street rioting that shocked Britons and caused Prime Minister David Cameron to lament the loss of moral teaching in British schools and society. The headline read “Tory Ministers to ‘Adopt’ Jobless Families.”

Some of the jobless have been without work for several generations. A recent survey found that in many homes, no one had ever worked and had no desire or expectation of employment.

The ministers have pledged to set an example for others to follow by volunteering to become “family champions” to the unemployed.

OPINION III

Leadership as No. 1 and the Grand Canyon

I am often reminded of the saying, “If you can’t win the race, help the one who finishes ahead of you do a personal best.” Those of you who are runners or who compete in individual sporting events will understand this concept. Either way, success in a competition should be tied to preparing well and then giving your best. If your best causes another to fly higher, you have lifted two people up.

I was out jogging along Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, Hawaii, when my mind wandered from running to leadership. As I ran along the walkway I ran at a fairly good clip, but I had no benchmarks to measure my pace by. I was just running for exercise and doing my own thing. I passed some other runners and other runners passed me. I chose my own pace independent of others.

When I reached the end of the walkway and turned around to run back, I found myself right behind a younger couple that were running at a slightly quicker pace than I had been moving. I decided I would try to stay with them and I set a goal of not letting them pull away from me. I pushed myself harder, kept pace behind them, and I improved my time by running back to our condominium in a quicker time than I had run from it.

As I ran back, I recognized that is it much easier to follow behind another and to let him or her set the pace than to set the pace myself. The next morning when I

went out running, as I ran back to our condo I heard footsteps behind me for much of the run as another jogger was pacing herself off of me. Hearing footsteps right behind me also pushed me to run faster.

From experiencing both, I recognize that it is easier to jog as number two, pacing off number one, than to be pushed from behind as number one. Either way, because of the influence of others, my time was improved. It is just that pacing off another is much less stressful than setting the pace.

I have been in leadership roles in many organizations, both “for profit” and “not for profit.” Often I have held the top position and often I have held positions that are lower in the organization. I will tell you that there is a world of difference between being in the number one position and being in a second or lower position.

Typically the second position is a great place to be. You are in a position of influence in the organization, but the stress level is much lower. When things go wrong, others bypass you and

Obama misses opportunity

Dear Editor: We really didn’t think it would happen, but it has. The president has blocked new air quality standards. He said this would hurt the economy. How?

A failure in education

Dear Editor: I’d like to comment on Mr. Rick Wolfert’s letter regarding the pitiful state of American schools. I was born and raised in Roswell. My two children graduated from Roswell High School.

When I was growing up, my parents didn’t have much money. In fact, by today’s standards, we would have been classified as very poor. Instead of going on welfare, my father worked two jobs for 25 years. My brothers and sisters were expected to do our very best in school.

If we ever got in trouble, we were disciplined again at home.

How times have changed and not for the better. There is no discipline in schools, nor many homes. I’m very concerned about a new program that has been implemented in two of Roswell’s middle schools. It seems to be another entitlement program that will fail students

typically shoot at the one at the top.

Number one is the one who is the lightening rod. Number one has a target on his or her back.

Number one is the first one to be criticized when anyone down the ladder doesn’t like the way something is being done. That comes with the territory. It is the challenge of being number one and what is great about being number two.

You can fill in the blank with anyone, from the top down. Our president (or go back three years to our former president), our governor (or go back a year to our previous governor), our other governmental leaders at all levels, and the list goes on and on. The ratio of criticism to the top position is exponentially greater than that of the second position. How often do you see President Obama’s name or did you see President Bush’s name in an article critical of their efforts versus seeing Vice President Biden or Cheney? People shoot at number one, not number two.

What I am saying is that there is a Grand Canyon of difference between the number one position in an organization and number two.

Back to my jogging. If I am running behind someone, I can watch what is happening ahead of me and I can respond accordingly. If I like the pace the leader is setting, I can spin off him or her. If I am running ahead of others I am setting not only my own

Roswell Daily Record

pace, but the pace of others.

Although leading an organization as number one is a great experience and can be very rewarding, the downside of this position is the critical nature of others. Others will watch what you do and if they like your decisions, then you may very well be taken for granted. Silence from others (or no news) is good news. If you do something that others (even outside the organization) don’t like, you will likely hear criticism of your leadership efforts.

It is hard for an individual who is not in the number one position to fully judge all of the decisions number one makes, as the other person doesn’t know all of the facts or have all of the information available to number one. It is much easier to be behind the leader throwing stones at him or her than it is to be out front with a target on you.

Nevertheless, we live in America and each of us is entitled to our own opinion. We have the right to stand on a mountaintop and yell to the world that we are unhappy with our president or any other leader on down the line. It is the American way. We each reserve the right to assess or critique anyone who leads.

I am not saying that there aren’t poor leaders filling the number one position in organizations. Obviously there is such a thing as good leadership and poor leadership, but generally leadership of any complex matter is a mixture of both. Some leaders are

and wreck their future. I call it the DDOC: “dumbing down our children.” A few of the outrageous directives are: 1. No homework for students, as they are poor. 2.

No zero’s can be given for assignments not turned in.

The students will receive a MA (missing assignment). 3.

Teachers are not allowed to give any grade below a 50.

In other words, you will be passed on to the next grade without any effort on the student’s part.

How is that fair to the students who try their best to get good grades? What is RISD teaching these students; that you can achieve a passing grade without working for it? Most of these kids have been passed from grade to grade, they can’t read, write or do simple math. By the time they get to high school they can’t cope and drop out. Don’t worry, they will go on welfare and you will support them for the rest of their lives, they haven’t been taught that you get what you work for.

It’s time to get back to the basics: reading, writing, math, spelling. It’s time to stop being politically correct —no Christmas, no Good Friday on RISD calendar even though the majority of peoplet believe in God. It’s time to take back our schools and our country, and to quit making excuses. Hard work will get you everywhere.

Sincerely, Carol Robertson Lincoln

more effective in their leadership skills than others.

Each organization will rise or fall on its leadership. If I want to find out about any organization, I look to its leader. There is a saying that the leader sets the pace of the pack. I agree. The best gauge for success in any organization is to look at the leadership skills of the number one leader.

My challenge to you today is to lead from where ever you are in your organizations. Leadership at any level is critical and can be very fulfilling. It can also be very depressing. If you are number one, congratulations! Step up to the plate and give it your best shot, but recognize that you will be a focal point for critical thinkers.

If you hold a position as number two or lower in an organization, be aware of how different the role is that number one plays.

Be a positive influence on the number one position. Be critical with a solution, not a machete.

Support the number one position if you can, or move out of the organization if you can’t.

There is a Grand Canyon of difference between the number one position and number two.

Church put on great tribute

Dear Editor: I have read so many anti-religious/patriotic letters in this paper that I felt it was time to show that there were still people out there who are proud to worship our Lord and have a deep patriotism for this country.

I have been to many religious/patriotic programs in my life, but I can honestly say that the program Waymaker Church put on in remembrance of 9/11/01 was the most moving that I have ever attended. My eyes were seldom dry during the entire program.

I recently lost my husband, Gary, who was a retired Army veteran, a source of pride to our family, always.

Before he passed away, he was able to talk with Pastor Mike Knowlton, and one of the things they spoke of was the 9/11 celebration. We were so hoping my husband would be able to attend.

I’m so sorry that Gary wasn’t able to be present as he would have been so proud to be there.

September is National Cholesterol Awareness Month Roswell Daily Record

Nearly ten years ago, I learned a new word (actually an acronym) that sounds like a vegetable, looks a lot like lettuce and goes very well with corn beef. However, the phrase “CABG” has now become extremely important to me and to thousands of other men and women. A quintuple Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) was the source of my new information and certainly my cholesterol level was at least a part of the cause. This column today is purely to help you lessen your risk of needing such a procedure.

You don’t want to do that!

September is National Cholesterol Awareness Month and it’s a very good

time to get your cholesterol checked and to take steps to lower it if it is too high.

High cholesterol levels can affect some of your choices of food and certainly will cause you to make some significant lifestyle changes. It is a serious condition that increases your risk for heart disease.

However, you may not recognize the problem because it really has no identifiable symptoms, and that alone makes high cholesterol even more dangerous!

Cholesterol is described as a fat-like substance in your blood, which builds up in the walls of your arteries. Over time, that buildup causes the arteries to become narrowed and

the blood flow to the heart becomes restricted or blocked. When blood supply to the heart is sufficiently blocked, the result will likely be a heart attack.

It is suggested that everyone age 20 and older should have their cholesterol levels checked at least every five years. A lipid pro-

file is a blood test which helps determine your risk of heart disease and which gives infor mation about your Total Cholesterol, LDL (“bad”) Cholesterol, HDL (“good”) Cholesterol, and finally Triglycerides.

The following are “Desirable Cholesterol Levels” and it is here that I give you my disclaimer. I have learned that different doctors and medical persons may have different opinions on what these levels should be. Therefore, please understand that your doctor or medical professional will advise you on the levels which he/she believes are acceptable. These are merely guidelines: •Total Cholesterol

Less than 200 mg/dL •LDL ( “bad” cholesterol) Less than 100 mg/dL •HDL (“good cholesterol) 60 mg/dL or higher •Triglycerides Less than 150 mg/dL

If you have high cholesterol, there are things you can do to lower it. First, eat more low-fat and highfiber foods such as fresh fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. Additionally, make sure you are getting some vigorous exercise every week. Remember, the heart is a muscle and it needs a workout. This will perhaps help with your ability to maintain a healthy weight. And finally, if you don’t smoke, don’t

start, and if you do smoke, quit!

Your doctor must be your guide. He or she can direct you to getting your cholesterol check done, and if it is appropriate, may prescribe medications to lower the levels. Don’t wait until your heart sounds of f.

"A Mighty Fortress is our God"

IMMANUEL LUTHERAN CHURCH

Roswell, NM - wants you to know who we are and what we believe.

- The Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod believes:

-The Bible is actually the Word of God , and therefore, is totally truthful, reliable and free from any error.

(2 Tim 3:16; 2 Peter 1:20-21)

- The office of the pastoral ministry was instituted by God himself and that this office should be held by a male (1 Tim 3:1-2; 2 Tim. 2:2; 1 Cor. 14:33-34) - Homosexual behavior is wrong and clearly against the Bible's teaching.

(Genesis 19; Romans 1)

- Abortion is wrong and contrary to God's commandment not to murder.

(Jer. 1:5; Ps. 139:16; Luke 1:41-44) - We must obey God rather than men. (Acts 5:29)

- We must reach out with the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all people.

(Romans 5:8; Acts 4:12)

- That all are born sinful and in need of a Savior-that Savior is Jesus Christ. (Psalms 51:5; Romans 3:23)

Every organization, every people, must have a base on which to stand. For us in the Missouri Synod it is God's Word, the Bible, which is without error or contradiction. In the 16th century, Martin Luther, a German monk, made his stand on the Word, stripping away human traditions and requirements that had drawn attention away from God's truth. From the Word, we know that there is one God, but that He is three persons-Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe the Father created and sustains the world. The Scriptures tell us that human beings chose to follow their own way and fell into sin-direct disobedience to God. We believe that Jesus Christ, True God and true man, suffered and died on earth as punishment for all sin. On the third day He rose victoriously from the grave. He lived in perfect obedience to God. He was without sin.

It is only because of Him-not because of anything we can do-that our perfect relationship with God is restored through the forgiveness of sins. Then God counts the righteous life of Jesus as if we lived it. We believe that the Spirit inspired the writers of the Bible and through it inspires faith in us. Three principles undergird our beliefs: Scripture, faith and grace. The Scripture is the only source of knowledge about God and His will for us. Grace tells us that as human beings we cannot earn God's love, forgiveness, or everlasting life. It is all a gift of His love. Only by faith in Jesus Christ, the Savior of the cross, do we receive forgiveness and life eternal. As redeemed children of God, we are able to live in faith and serve our neighbor. It is our Lord who continues to forgive, nurture and keep us in the true faith through His Word and Sacraments. We give thanks to God who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. To find out more about us, please join us for worship and Bible study, or call us. You are always welcome.

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS PITT, SYRACUSE APPLY TO ACC

The Atlantic Coast Conference has received application letters from Pittsburgh and Syracuse to join the league, a move that would leave the Big East scrambling to replace two of its longest tenured members.

Florida State President Eric Barron told The Associated Press on Saturday before the Seminoles played No. 1 Oklahoma that the ACC was excited about adding to its “northern tier.”

“Pittsburgh and Syracuse, who have applied, these are solid academic schools, and the ACC is a truly academic conference,” Barron said.

“Certainly great basketball teams, a good history of football.

“I’m sure consideration will be very fast. I’ll be surprised if it’s not tomorrow (Sunday).”

He confirmed that 11 of 12 ACC presidents attended a meeting in Greensboro, N.C., on Tuesday — the other participated by phone — and unanimously approved raising the exit fee to $20 million — up from $12 million to $14 million — for any member leaving the conference.

trolled the tempo and set the tone for the match.

In the eighth minute, Carlsbad took the lead and, to that point, had already put six shots on goal.

In the 13th minute, the physicality of the game escalated into a fight that lasted a few minutes.

Coyote coach Samantha Lawrence said that she didn’t really know how the scrum started. “(Carlsbad coach Misty Long) and I aren’t sure how it started,” she said. “I think it just got to the point where they were shoving each other back and forth on the defensive line and it escalated into something that shouldn’t have been.”

As a result of the fight, two players from both teams were issued red cards and the rest of the game was played with nine players on each team.

More telling than the fight was the reaction from both teams to the first physical play after the altercation.

Roughly two minutes after the fight, Roswell’s Victoria Meraz attempted to gain possession of the ball

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

The Hagerman Bobcat volleyball team lost to Dexter for the first time in more than three years earlier this week. On Saturday, the Bobcats rebounded from that loss in resounding fashion.

Hagerman blitzed Gateway Christian in the first two sets and then pulled away late in the third set of the championship match at the Lady Warrior Invitational at the Red Rock Warrior Center to capture the tournament championship.

“I think we needed it,” said Bobcat coach Kate DeHoyos about the win in the championship game. “It was good to play against people other than our JV. Hopefully this gets us ready for this next week.”

Hagerman’s bane against Dexter was the service game, but it was a strength for the Bobcats against Gateway.

Hagerman missed just six serves in the match, three of which came in the final set.

“We missed six in three games instead of 17 and that makes a huge difference,” DeHoyos said.

“Serving aggressive is high risk and high reward, but that’s a chance that we take. The serves were much better today.”

That was most apparent in the first set.

The Bobcats put together runs six, four, six and nine to run away with a 25-4 win.

Oklahoma quarterback Landry Jones (12) dives into the Florida State defense, including Florida State linebackers Nigel Bradham (13) and Vince Williams (11), for a touchdown during the first quarter of Oklahoma’s win over the Seminoles, Saturday.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — Landry Jones’ pass seemed like it would never come down.

Kenny Stills waited in the end zone for what must have felt like an eternity, then reached high for a touchdown that gave No. 1 Oklahoma the type of rugged road victory that teams need to win national championships.

Stills, playing for the first time this season after being suspended for the opener because of an offseason DUI arrest, grabbed a 37-yard scoring pass midway through the fourth quarter for the tiebreaking score, and Oklahoma’s defense made the lead stand as the Sooners beat No. 5 Florida State 23-13 on Saturday night.

“We won ugly, but that’s OK,” said Jones, an Artesia grad, who came in 3-5 as a starter the past two seasons in true road games.

The Seminoles (2-1) played the final 20 minutes without starting quarterback E.J. Manuel, who left in the third with a left shoulder injury.

Backup Clint Trickett kept the Seminoles in it. He hooked up with freshman Rashad Greene for a 56yard touchdown on a thirdand-28 with 9:32 left in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 13.

But on the next possession, Jones went deep down the sideline to the 6-foot-1 Stills, who easily outleaped the 5-8 Greg Reid for the touchdown.

Trickett couldn’t respond.

On the next drive, he had a pass tipped at the line by Ronnell Lewis, and Harris came up with his second interception near midfield.

easily ran away for a lopsided victory.

The swing in momentum started on the 12th point of the set with Hagerman leading 6-5.

Gateway failed to capitalize on a side out and Hagerman sided out to bring Marisol Caro up to serve.

She delivered an ace on her first serve, fueling a seven-point run — the final three coming on kills from Taylor Hamill, Lori Gossett and Melissa Olivas — that put Hagerman up 13-5.

Gateway briefly drew within five at 13-8, but Hagerman won 12 of the final 15 points for a 25-11 victory.

The third set was a closer affair, but the result was

the same — a Hagerman victory, 25-21.

The Bobcats ran off six in a row to stretch their lead to 15-8 midway through the match, but Gateway fought back.

The Warriors answered the Bobcat run by winning five of six points to draw within three at 16-13.

The two teams traded three-point spurts and then traded the next six points.

Hagerman led 22-19 at the point and Gateway won back-to-back points to close within one.

Gossett sandwiched an Olivas ace with a pair of kills on the final three points to secure the championship for Hagerman.

“The third game was better,” Warrior coach Kerri Pirtle said about what positives she took out of the loss.

“We changed our defense in the middle of the second game and I think it was working better. It was just too late to get started.”

Gossett led the Bobcats with eight kills and two aces and Brieanna Olivas added four kills.

Sadie Fox and Julia Harvard each had two kills to lead Gateway. kjkeller@roswell-record.com

“As soon as the fight happened, I told them that if something happens, you have got to get up. As hard as it is to be the bigger person, you have got to get up and be the bigger person.”

In the 21st minute, Carlsbad tacked on another goal that made the score 2-0.

Roswell’s defense held up well considering that 80 percent of the game was played on the Coyotes’ side of the pitch.

“Carlsbad controls the ball well,” Lawrence said regarding the amount of time Carlsbad had the ball. “They keep it at their feet and they pass to their players. We have a hard time getting it at our feet and keeping it for our team. Technically, Carlsbad is a good team.”

Flores made another save in the 64th minute when Carlsbad had another breakaway. The shot went high and Flores was able to deflect the ball, but it went over her head and headed toward the goal.

Goddard 1, Robertson 0 ROBERTSON — Goddard’s Jadon Flores scored the only goal of the game as the Rockets improved to 5-7 with a win over Robertson.

Goddard assistant coach Tim Lucas said that his team played well.

“It was a very even game,” he said.

“It was a good game, but we were hoping that we might do a little better. We did have a lot of shots on goal, but, unfortunately, their keeper had a good game. Overall, I am very pleased with the shutout and with the win.”

Roswell 4 (4), Carlsbad 3 (2) CARLSBAD — Trailing 3-2 in the 75th minute, Roswell’s Fernando Sanchez tied the game and, after two scoreless overtimes, Jovanny Andrade scored the decisive penalty kick that gave the Coyotes a win over Carlsbad on Saturday.

Roswell struck first with a goal from David Herrera and the lead stood until the 45th minute when the Cavemen tied the game.

Sanchez scored his first goal to give Roswell a 2-1 lead, but Carlsbad once again tied it and then took the lead with about 10 minutes left in the game.

In the 75th minute, Sanchez hit what Roswell coach James Vernon called “one of the most beautiful shots I have ever seen in person,” from 30 yards out that tied the game at 3.

Win streak over: Clemson upsets Auburn B4 Sunday, September 18, 2011

CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — Auburn certainly misses Heisman Trophy winning quarterback Cam Newton.

It may miss star defensive tackle Nick Fairley even more.

No. 21 Aubur n’s luck ended Saturday along with its 17-game winning streak as Clemson piled up 624 yards in beating the defending national champions 38-24.

“It’s been a long time since we lost,” Aubur n safety Demetruce McNeal said. “I guess it’s a new feeling for us all.”

And a new one for Clemson, which hadn’t opened 3-0 since 2007.

Clemson quarterback Tajh Boyd led the way, completing 30 of 42 passes for 386 yards and four touchdowns in his third start. While Clemson’s of fense was rolling up yardage, its defense was shutting down an Auburn attack that had a knack for staging late-game rallies.

That’s what happened a

SPORTS

year ago when Aubur n overcame a 17-0 deficit to beat Clemson 27-24 in overtime.

This time, it was Boyd picking apart Aubur n’s defense, something Fairley, the Detroit Lions’ firstround pick, rarely let happen last season.

Auburn (2-1) took a 14-0 lead in the first quarter before Boyd began hitting his targets over the final three periods. Clemson converted 10 straight third-down attempts during one stretch, sapping Aubur n’s energy said defensive back R yan White.

“We got to get off the field on third down,” White said.

“That killed our spirit. You go on the road, that takes a lot of energy and you could see they rallied. They got the crowd into it and they couldn’t be stopped.”

Aubur n may have a dynamic offense, but its was last in Southeastern Conference defense coming in and it showed at Death

Valley. Clemson scored on five of six possessions at one point and its 624 yards was the most it ever totaled against an SEC opponent.

T railing 38-24 in the fourth quarter, Aubur n moved to Clemson’s 8-yard line. But Barrett T rotter was intercepted by Coty Sensabaugh to end the threat.

“We’re angry that we lost that game,” Trotter said.

“That goes without saying.”

Michael Dyer led Auburn with 151 yards rushing and two touchdowns.

Clemson players jumped around in celebration when the clock struck zero and fans swar med the field.

Coach Dabo Swinney told his players they had greatness in them but had to decide to show it.

“I couldn’t think of a better place to end the streak than Death Valley, South Carolina, baby,” he said.

Clemson had lost 14 straight to Auburn since a 34-0 win in 1951. That was also the last time Clemson

’Bama blanks North Texas

No. 2 Alabama 41, North Texas 0 TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — T rent Richardson and Eddie Lacy had two long touchdown runs and career rushing highs each as the T ide’s defense smothered North Texas (0-3).

Richardson scored three times — including a 58-yarder and a career -long 71yarder — and had most of his 167 yards on the two long ones. He had 24 yards at halftime against the Mean Green (0-3) and the nation’s 117th-rated defense.

No. 7 Wisconsin 49, Northern Illinois 7 CHICAGO (AP) — Russell Wilson threw for 347 yards and three scores, Montee Ball rushed for another two TDs and the Badgers piled up more than 600 yards in the game at Soldier Field.

Ball finished with 91 yards on 18 carries, James White added 100 yards and another score, and Nick Toon had two TD catches for the Badgers (3-0). Wisconsin improved to 12-1 against the Huskies (1-2).

No. 9 Texas A&M 37, Idaho 7 COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) — Cyrus Gray had three touchdowns and 101 yards rushing, and Ryan Tannehill threw for 337 yards and two scores in less than three quarters as the Aggies (2-0) shook off a sloppy start.

Gray finished with 101 yards rushing for his ninth straight 100-yard game.

Idaho (1-2) had to punt 10 times, converted two of 14 third downs and had nine penalties for 66 yards.

No. 10 South Carolina 24, Navy 21 COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Marcus Lattimore ran for a career-high 246 yards and three touchdowns to help the Gamecocks (3-0) hang on to defeat Navy.

Lattimore carried 37 times and averaged 6.6 yards a carry. South Carolina ran 37 plays in the second half, and the sophomore touched the ball on 26 of them.

The Midshipmen (2-1) rushed for 274 yards split among seven players.

No. 11 Nebraska 51, Washington 38 LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Taylor Martinez threw for two touchdowns and ran for a third to lead the Cornhuskers.

Martinez looked to have put away the Huskies with his 6-yard TD run, but Keith Price passed 52 yards to James Johnson for his fourth TD toss to make it a 13-point game with 4:27 left.

Nebraska (3-0) won the third meeting of the teams in 364 days. Nebraska won in Seattle last September but lost in a rematch at the Holiday Bowl.

Washington’s (2-1) Chris Polk ran for 130 yards. Nebraska’s Rex Burkhead had

120 yards rushing.

Price was 21 of 37 for 274 yards.

No. 12 Oregon 56, Missouri State 7 EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — LaMichael James ran for 204 yards and three touchdowns, including a 90-yarder, and the Ducks cruised.

James’ 90-yard dash was Oregon’s longest run since 1938. He also had a 1yard TD in the first quarter and a 50yarder in the third.

Darron Thomas threw for 206 yards and three touchdowns for the Ducks (2-1).

Lavasier Tuinei caught scoring passes of 8 and 34 yards, and Oregon sat most of its starters early in the second half. Missouri State fell to 0-3.

No. 13 Virginia Tech 26, Arkansas State 7 BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) — Logan Thomas threw for 292 yards and two touchdowns for the Hokies, who are 3-0 for the first time since 2006.

Thomas hit D.J. Coles with a short pass that Coles took 49 yards for a touchdown and found Danny Coale from 4 yards out.

Thomas was 21 for 33 and also threw two interceptions.

Arkansas State (1-2) came in averaging 480 yards but managed little after a 51yard pass on its first offensive play set up its only scoring drive.

Notre Dame 31, No. 15 Michigan State 13 SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — Cierre Wood ran for two touchdowns, freshman George Atkinson III returned a kickoff 89 yards for a score and Robert Blanton had a late interception for the Irish (1-2).

The Spartans (2-1), who stunned Notre Dame in overtime a year ago with a gamewinning TD pass off a fake field goal, tried to surprise the Irish with another fake late in the first half. But it failed when Ethan Johnson broke up a shovel pass attempt and the Irish led 21-10 at the break.

No. 16 Florida 33, Tennessee 23 GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Chris Rainey had 233 total yards, including an 83-yard touchdown catch, and the Gators extended two decades of dominance in the Southeastern Conference series.

Rainey finished with 108 yards rushing, 104 yards receiving and blocked a punt that led to a field goal. His touchdown pretty much sealed it, allowing the Gators (3-0, 1-0) to push their winning streak in the series to seven games.

The Volunteers (2-1, 0-1) have lost 16 of the last 22 games in the series.

homa turned it into a field goal, this one from 31 yards out by Jimmy Stevens.

“All of a sudden the crowd’s on you, they tie it up at home,” said OU coach Bob Stoops, who shared a hug with his brother, Mark, the Florida State defensive coordinator, after the game. “We come back ... with the big drive, defense gets the turnover, we eat up the clock and get a field goal.

I’m really proud of ’em.

Our kids really answered the bell when they had to.”

Jones finished 18 for 27 for 199 yards with two interceptions, though he did become the school’s career passing leader, moving past Heisman Trophy winner Sam Bradford.

“All great games come down to two or three plays,” second-year Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher said. “They made plays; we didn’t.”

Watkins finished with 10 catches for 155 yards, both setting Clemson records for a freshman. these two heavyweight programs have played. The Sooners won their last national championship in 2000 by beating the Seminoles 13-2 in the Orange Bowl.

The Sooners scored a touchdown on their first possession and one of the most potent offenses in the country didn’t find the end zone again until the fourth quarter. Florida State looked as if it would never get there.

Then Greene’s touchdown sent most of the record crowd of 84,392 at Doak Campbell Stadium into hysterics. Like Stills, he went high in traffic to come down with Trickett’s pass then broke free from the pack and raced for the score.

“It was just loud, I couldn’t hear anything, especially down there when we were in their student section,” Jones said. “I called some plays six or seven times, and I still don’t think the guys heard me.”

Florida State showed it’s worthy of again being considered a national title contender, a title the Seminoles held for 14 years under Hall of Fame coach Bobby Bowden, but relin-

Seminoles Fisher’s aren’t quite all the way back, but they are getting there.

Oklahoma seemed to pick up right where it left off last year in Norman on the first drive of the game, zipping down field with little resistance for an 80yard drive that ended with Jones’ 1-yard touchdown sneak.

Dustin Hopkins booted a 53-yard field goal to make it 7-3 with 2:42 left in the first.

Turnovers, penalties and defense dominated the rest of the way.

Florida State’s best shot to get in the end zone in the first half came when Manuel found Kenny Shaw deep down the middle inside the 5, but the receiver was sandwiched

by Wort and Harris, taking a double-helmet shot, and the ball came out. The Sooners were flagged 15 yards for the hit and Shaw lay motionless on the turf for several minutes. He was carted off, conscious and moving his arms, and taken to the hospital for X-rays. He later returned to the sideline in the fourth quarter.

Justin Rose builds four-shot lead at Cog Hill Roswell Daily Record

LEMONT, Ill. (AP) — It’s not quite the “fifth major” for Justin Rose, though it’s a big deal. He spent last week at the “J.R. Challenge,” named after himself and involving seven of his best friends from childhood who meet each year for a week of golf.

They went to Long Island and settled for a rotation of Sebonac, Garden City Men’s Club, National Links and Friars Head.

Using the Stableford format and a cumulative score through four rounds, Rose was a runner-up for the miniature trophy.

“They play me off a plus 7 — plus 7 and a little bit hungover, so that’s not a great combination,” Rose said Saturday. “But I did tie for second, so I worked pretty hard.”

Among the top 70 on the PGA Tour at the BMW Championship, Rose seems to be having a much easier time.

Even as Cog Hill played tougher under sunshine and swirling wind, Rose made only one bogey as his top challengers fell apart. He wound up with a 2-under 69 and built a four-shot lead going into the final round at Cog Hill.

He attributes his best golf of the year to cleaning up his swing with coach Sean Foley this week, keying on one swing and playing as though he has nothing to lose.

At No. 34 in the FedEx Cup, Rose is virtually assured of making it to the Tour Championship next week, and he might even go to East Lake with a win and a real chance at the $10 million bonus.

“It would certainly be a huge win at the right time,” said Rose, who was at 13under 200.

The closest player to him was John Senden of Australia, who needs to win to have any chance of making the Presidents Cup team. Senden had a rugged start, but had four birdies on his last eight holes for a 70.

Mark Wilson, who started the day tied for the lead, played a five-hole stretch in 5 over on the back nine and shot 77. He played the last hour unsure if he would get a twoshot penalty for grounding his club in the bunker at No. 14, although he was cleared because his club was placed in the sand to keep his balance as he replaced his ball.

Wilson still shot 77 and fell eight shots back.

Top 25 capsules

Webb Simpson was in contention until going from a bunker into the hazard and making double bogey on No. 17. He shot 73 and was six shots out of the lead.

Even with Rose looking like a runaway winner, there was plenty at stake for two cups — the FedEx Cup that pays $10 million to the winner next week at East Lake, and the Presidents Cup in Australia that doesn’t pay a dime.

The latter means more to Geoff Ogilvy, who grew up in Melbourne and now has a home on the 14th hole. He put himself into position for a shot at both of them with four birdies late in his round for a 68, leaving him in a tie for third at 8-under 205.

A week ago, he was on the verge of being eliminated from the FedEx Cup playoffs until making a birdie on the final hole to finish at No. 69, when only the top 70 advanced to Cog Hill.

If he can stay no worse than a two-way tie for third, he will go to Atlanta and qualify for the International team at the Presidents Cup. “I’m trying not to think about anything other than just play good golf, but it creeps into your mind every now and then,” Ogilvy said. “It’s a bit more complicated than your normal tournament.”

He was tied with Bill Haas, who was within three shots of the lead until a bad break on his tee shot at the 16th led to double bogey. Haas, who is No. 12 in the Presidents Cup standings, had to settle for a 69 and was five shots behind.

If he can hold his position, Haas would make the team.

Rose is 1-7 on the PGA Tour when he has at least a share of the 54-hole lead. A year ago, he lost a three-shot lead in final round at Hartford and barely hung on with a four-shot lead a week later in Philadelphia.

“I’ve been there a little bit last year — won one, lost one when I was in a situation like this,” he said. “So I’ve got some good experience on which to count on. Just keep seeing good shots and keep playing one shot at a time. I don’t think you can get defensive. A four-shot lead isn’t really a big enough lead to waste holes.”

It was enough to give Senden some hope.

Justin Rose watches his tee shot on the third hole during the third round of the BMW Championship, Saturday. Rose leads the tournament by four shots.

“I’m going to go out there with the idea of shooting a good score because Justin Rose is in great control, and who knows what could happen?” Senden said. “It’s a funny game. Anything could happen Sunday afternoon.”

Luke Donald, the world No. 1 who was an NCAA champion at Northwestern, is kicking himself for the way he started. He opened with a 75, yet followed that with rounds of 66 and 67 and was tied for seventh, although eight shots off the lead. The only other player with a 67 Saturday was Sergio Garcia, who broke a club in anger along the way. Garcia also was tied for sev-

enth.

Jim Furyk, holding down the No. 9 spot in the Presidents Cup, had a 70 and was tied for seventh. He is narrowly ahead of David Toms, who is narrowly ahead of Brandt Snedeker.

They all took turns making a run, though Toms and Snedeker shot 73s and were tied for 14th.

“It’s hard not to look at the scoreboard and see how things are going,” Furyk said.

“I would have liked to have a shot a better score today. I need to go out and fire a good number tomorrow. That’s the only thing I can control.”

Betty Lou Miller Kelly

A rosary will be held at 7 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 19, 2011 at Assumption Catholic Church for Betty L. Kelly, 67 years of age, who passed away on Sept.

17, 2011 surrounded by family and friends at a local hospital. The resurrection mass will be held at 10 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 20, 2011 at Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Catholic Church with Father Joe Pacquing officiating. Inter ment will be held at 3 p.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 21, 2011 at

NATION/OBITUARIES Frisco Catholic Cemetery near Reserve. Father Bill McCann will officiate.

Betty Lou was born Dec. 11, 1943 in Albuquerque to William Kelly, Jr. and Fannie Romero-Kelly, who have both preceded her in death.

She was also preceded in death by two brothers, Thomas Kelly and Wilford J. Kelly.

She was raised on a ranch between Glenwood and Reserve (AKA “Gut Ache Mesa”). She went to grade school in Glenwood and graduated from Reserve High School. Betty was proud to have been a lifetime resident of New Mexico and had resided in Roswell for 40 years. For more than a decade, she served as one of the nursing faculty members at Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell. She was also an alumni of ENMU-R receiving her A.D.N. degree in 1988. She received her B.S.N. degree from the University of New Mexico in 1992, and completed her M.S.N. degree at the University of Texas at El Paso in 1995. Her “passion” in

life was instructing nursing students and following their successes. She thoroughly enjoyed outdoor sports and loved to travel.

She cherished and enjoyed time spent with family and dear friends.

Betty is survived by her wonderful children, Tracy J. Laney (son) and his wife Lupe, and Terri Lynn Harlow (daughter), and husband Jim. She is also survived by 8 grandchildren, whom she loved dearly. She is also survived by her two much loved sisters, Sue Greear and Lucy Dorr, and one brother Emmett Kelly, plus several nieces, cousins, and aunt.

Pallbearers will be Karen Curtis, Gloria McDaniel, Chris Goodyear, Rachel Gallagher, Teresa Luna, Barbara Whitten, Candi Miller, Felicia Harvey, Toni Hall, Dova Callihan, Fran Haas, Fran Wallis, Judy Hobson, Karolyn Anderson, Violet Mills, Viola Jaramillo, Nan Hudson, Shirley Scott Downey, Connie Wehrheine, Carol Ann Ritz, Jacque Fryar, Linda Oberg.

“The American public has turned selfish. They don’t really want to invest in this stuff,” said Robert Atkinson, a technology think tank executive who helped lead one of the federal transportation commissions. “It’s akin to leaving your house to your kids when you die without fixing the roof because you wanted to spend the money instead on Florida vacations.”

In Delaware, of ficials have delayed dozens of capital projects, but still expected a $21 million shortfall in the state’s transportation trust fund this summer. The deficit is seen as growing to $1 billion by 2016.

In Texas, a committee recently declared the highway system inadequate and war ned lawmakers that congestion would worsen without money for road improvements. Gov. Rick Perry’s plan for a toll road across the state was abandoned in the face of uproar from ranchers whose land would be seized to build it.

In Pennsylvania, 5,906 bridges, or about 27 percent of the state’s total, are graded structurally deficient, the highest rate in the nation, according to the Washington-based policy group Transportation for America.

The emergency closure this month of the 50-yearold Sher man Minton Bridge, one of three spans that connect southern Indiana and Louisville, Ky., has snarled the daily commute for tens of thousands of motorists. Officials found cracks in the steel span, raising safety concer ns.

The two states have struggled for years to find the money to build two more bridges.

Maryland business leaders persuaded the governor and lawmakers to spend more on road construction after a state commission found nearly $1 billion in transportation dollars had been diverted to the general fund budget.

In Georgia, lawmakers approved legislation to

allow 12 regions around the state to ask voters next year whether to raise their sales tax by a penny per dollar to pay for an approved list of transportation projects. Officials in the 10-county Atlanta region recently endorsed a $6.14 billion draft list of transportation projects, from light rail to new highways, to ease congestion that’s among the worst in the nation.

The consequences of inaction are severe.

Atkinson’s commission forecast “unimaginable levels of congestion” in the coming decades. Safety will be reduced. Goods and services will cost more. The quality of life will be eroded, and the nation’s economic competitiveness diminished, the commission predicted.

The Federal Highway Administration predicts 40 percent of the nation’s major highways will be congested by 2035 without major fixes.

“Our highways are clogged with traffic. Our skies are the most congested in the world. This is inexcusable,” President Barack Obama told Congress in a speech last week in which he demanded passage of a jobs bill.

“Building a world-class transportation system is part of what made us an economic superpower. And now we’re going to sit back and watch China build newer airports and faster railroads? At a time when millions of unemployed construction workers could build them right here in America?”

Despite the sense of urgency, federal highway and transit programs that underwrite about 40 percent of transportation construction have been in a kind of legislative limbo for two years, limping along under a series of shortterm extensions because

States struggle for financing to meet road needs

LAS VEGAS (AP) — The Hoover Dam, one of the world’s great engineering feats, is marred by roads with traf fic so jammed along the Nevada-Arizona border that it tells a different story about the political will to maintain 21st century infrastructure.

The road leading to the dam cannot accommodate the torrent of tourists and spills them into the overwhelmed little town of Boulder City. Nevada lawmakers are trying to find a private company to build a $400 million bypass because the state can’t afford it.

The phrase “you can’t get there from here” is increasingly apt nearly everywhere one turns. America’s roads, highways, bridges and transit systems are falling apart. Even those not in disrepair are often so crowded that a horse and buggy might seem faster.

Cities and suburbs are outgrowing their infrastructure far faster than local governments can find the money to fix them.

While the problem is plain to all, the money and the political will to fix it isn’t there.

Two congressionally mandated commissions and a slew of experts and committees have said the nation needs to double, even quadruple, what it spends each year to maintain and repair its aging transportation infrastructure and expand to accommodate population growth.

So there’s the rub. No one likes traffic jams and potholes. No one wants people to die because an unsafe bridge has collapsed. But raising federal gas and diesel taxes or boosting tolls and fees isn’t popular, either.

Pew Center polls in the last year show that 67 percent of those questioned said their state should not cut money for roads and public transit to balance its budget. But only 38 percent want federal spending increased and only 27 percent favor an increase in the gas tax that often pays for it.

At the same time, threequarters say more spending

Congress can’t figure out how to pay for them.

Republicans want the programs to be funded almost entirely through existing transportation taxes, primarily the 18.4 cents per gallon federal gas tax and 24.4 cents per gallon federal diesel tax. But revenue from the taxes is declining as people drive less and buy more fuel-efficient cars.

GOP Rep. John Mica of Florida, chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, has proposed a six-year, $230 billion plan that would slash annual transportation spending by about 30 percent.

Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer of California, who heads the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee, has developed a plan that would last only two years and cost $109 billion. But it would maintain current spending levels with some adjustment for inflation.

Federal inaction is “a big variable, right now,” Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley, chairman of the Democratic Governors Association, said recently. “You wouldn’t have thought so because it’s been routinely extended in the past, but some of these guys in Congress really do believe that bridges are like trees and if you leave them alone long enough they grow taller and stronger with age, so it’s hard to say.”

At the state level, 21 states cut transportation money last year even with a $48.1 billion infusion of federal stimulus dollars for road projects, according to the National Conference of State Legislators. The proportion of spending on transportation at the state level has held steady at 9 percent since 1995.

“People need to understand all across America what’s at stake,” said Tony Dorsey of the American Association of State Highway and T ransportation

Officials.

State legislators aren’t any more eager than members of Congress to raise their gas tax to fix roads. In Maryland, Delaware, Utah and Wyoming, lawmakers rejected gas tax increases to pay for new road work because, they said, residents couldn’t afford higher taxes.

“If I got a pair of wornout Levis, I don’t go out and buy another pair just cause I need them,” Republican state Sen. Chris Buttars of Utah said last spring as he argued against raising that state’s gas tax by 5 cents per gallon. “I’ve got to have the money.”

About two dozen states are making due with the same fuel tax they charged in 1996, according to the federal government. But in Califor nia, for example, inflation has eaten away half the value of that state’s gas tax, which has remained at 18 cents per gallon since 1994.

Review: Rollins, Coleman pair up for first time CHARLES J. GANS ASSOCIATED PRESS

Sonny Rollins, “Road Shows, Vol. 2�

(Doxy/Emarcy)

T enor saxophonist Sonny Rollins remains an irresistible force of nature who is best heard in live concert settings where his exuberant, impassioned solos can blow an audience away. “Road Shows, Vol. 2,� which consists of tracks recorded at concerts in Japan and from Rollins’ September 2010 80th birthday concert in New York, finds the jazz legend upping his game, pushed by guest soloists, trumpeter Roy Hargrove and alto saxophonist and free jazz visionary Ornette Coleman.

Rollins uses a familiar standard as a launching pad for his elongated, inventive improvisations on the opening track, an uptempo version of Irving Berlin’s “They Say It’s Wonderful.� He is supported by one of his tightest touring bands of recent years, trading licks with the young drummer Kobie Watkins and guitarist Russell Malone. Rollins sits out the next track, a subdued take on “In a Sentimental Mood,� performed by guitarist Jim Hall, his partner on the 1962 album, “The Bridge.�

The album’s centerpiece is the nearly 22-minute blues “Sonnymoon For Two,� marking the first time longtime friends Rollins and Coleman have

performed together in public. It begins with Rollins stretching out with bassist Christian McBride and fellow octogenarian, drummer Roy Haynes, in the piano-less trio format the saxophonist favored on some of his classic, late 1950s albums. Coleman makes his unannounced entrance just under the nine-minute mark, launching into one of his abstract solos with asymmetric melodic phrases, yet rooted in the blues. As they trade solos, Rollins’ playing goes more outside, until they climax in a frenzied unison outburst.

Hargrove and Rollins cool things down by embracing the lush ballad “I Can’t Get Started,� but then engage in some spirited call-and-response on Billy Strayhor n’s “Rain Check.� An abbreviated version of Rollins’ joyful calypso “St. Thomas� provides an encore.

Unlike “Road Shows, Vol. 1� (2008), which offered live performances spanning 1980 to 2007, Rollins has blended together a more cohesive sequel from concerts recorded a month apart that show why he remains the “Saxophone Colossus.�

CHECK THIS TRACK OUT:

“Sonnymoon For Two� is a historic recording with its first-time matchup of the two greatest living jazz saxophonists, each soloing in his own distinctive style and supported by an allstar rhythm section.

Panettiere to be honored for DC statehood advocacy WASHINGTON (AP) — Actress Hayden Panettiere is being honored by District of Columbia officials for her commitment to making the district a state.

Panettiere played a cheerleader with superpowers on the NBC drama “Heroes� among several other roles.

She is an advocate for numerous social and environmental causes, including the plight of marine mammals. On a trip to Washington several years ago, she learned that residents of the nation’s capital have no voting representation in Congress and began speaking out about the statehood fight.

She has appeared at numerous pro-statehood events and in public service announcements.

Stars rake in the swag as Emmy gift suites abound LOS ANGELES (AP) — Emmy nominees are always talented, and in the days leading up to the awards ceremony many are gifted, too.

Gift suites catering to Emmy nominees and presenters beckoned the stars, writers and producers of TV’s top shows Saturday with loads of luxury freebies.

The stars who came by the Nokia Theatre to rehearse for Sunday’s ceremony were invited backstage to the HP Touchsmart Gift Lounge, where HP gave away notebook computers and made a donation to the TV academy’s nonprofit foundation for each celeb who stopped by.

Actor David Boreanaz of TV’s “Bones” came to the suite with his family in the morning and was among

the stars who collected bedazzled toasters, sneakers made from recycled plastic water bottles, designer sunglasses, Centrum vitamins, Nautica watches and a $700 hair dryer.

At the Four Seasons Hotel across town, the HBO Luxury Lounge was a crowded, multi-room affair that drew LL Cool J, Loretta Devine, who won an Emmy for her guest-starring role on “Grey’s Anatomy,” “Mad Men” creator Matthew Weiner and veteran actress Cloris Leachman, among others.

Her cousin Les Berman says Bay died Thursday at a Los Angeles area hospital after being diagnosed with pneumonia.

After working as a radio actress before World War II, Bay married and became a housewife. She returned to acting in the 1970s and her

The 19-year -old

As an 8-year-old who faced bullying, Lovato had an eating disorder and later started cutting her wrists to vent her despair.

MARTHA D. URQUIDES-STAAB VISTAS EDITOR

The sounds of saxophones, trumpets, banjos, clarinets and guitars will fill the autumn air, the only explanation for this sweet, toe tapping music, the 6th annual Jazz Festival has officially arrived.

The 6th annual Roswell Jazz Festival will make its way downtown Oct. 7,8 and 9, and the schedule is jam packed full of events and incredible jazz artists are traveling from all over the country on abroad to perform for this grand event.

This year marks the 6th year the festival has been running in the community. The origins of this festival come from the traumatic event in 2005, Hurricane Katrina. Katrina still remains fresh in the minds of those in the gulf coast as being one of the top five worst storms in U.S. history. The hurricane displaced thousands of people. One of those storm victims arrived in Roswell, Dr. Roger Dickerson.

Dickerson is a composer; jazz pianist and Pulitzer Prize nominee, came and helped form a committee to plan local jazz concerts in the city. The proceeds earned from the event would then go to the children’s fund for those who were displaced from the hurricane. That event drew in 200 people at First Presbyterian Church. Following that successful event Dr. Dickerson and the committee helped sponsor a Mardi Gras event in February of 2006 and several per for mances were scheduled throughout that weekend with the help of Michael Francis and several others. Proceeds, after those expenses established the small seed for the major jazz festival. From then on out the festival has become an annual event that brings a different style of music and culture to our corner of the world.

“The generosity of this community has been so wonderful they have embraced this festival,” said Duane Evans, festival chairman.

Since its existence, Michael Francis, music director has been traveling all over the country in search of jazz musicians willing to lend their talents to the festival. Francis, also a jazz musician of nearly 40 years, is responsible for creating the biggest part of the festival and bringing these world famous artists here for the event. He travels three times out of the year to various places and scouts jazz clubs in search of new artists. He discovered this year’s guest of honor, Nicki Parrott several years ago in New York City.

Nicki Parrott, is a world famous Australian jazz artist who has been at the festival several times but this will be her first time being the guest of honor.

“I’m honored to be named the guest of honor for this event. I’m use to helping honor someone, but I’m not use to being the honoree, I’m delighted,” said Parott. She has been to Roswell several times and enjoys her visits every time she visits. She loves how the community comes together and loves the arts and everything they do to create the festival.

Parrott was born in Australia and was introduced to music as a teenager. Her sister was a musician and told her she needed a bassist for her band. At the time she played classical flute and piano. She picked up the bass and taught herself how to play. From then she didn’t want to do anything else.

After she finished high school she moved to Sydney to study jazz at the New South Wales Conservatorium of Music. In May 1994 Parrott went to New York on an Arts Council grant from Australia to study with the internationally acclaimed bassist, Rufus Reid. Since then she has been traveling all over the world and has worked with several other jazz musicians and has recorded over 30 albums since 1995. In her travels she has visited beautiful places

VISTAS Roswell Daily Record

around the world including Switzerland and Japan.

Parrott is excited to return to Roswell and bring the sounds of jazz to the city “What’s important is to entertain an audience. If I have entertained them and they enjoy it, I’ve done my job. I keep coming back to this festival because its so much fun, some of the artists, I have worked with before and its great because we get to catch up and make music together,” said Parrott.

Another jazz musician from Florida is making his way back to Roswell for the festival. Allen Vache has performed at the festival before and enjoys returning to the alien city.

“Roswell is a unique city and the audience there is appreciative which makes the festival enjoyable,” said Vache. Vache spends the majority of his time on the road traveling to festivals all over the country introducing jazz to many of those who are unfamiliar with the music genre.

“The thing about Jazz is that its spontaneous, you play what you feel. Jazz is America’s true art form,” said Vache.

Vache has also recorded several albums and is currently working with a label in Clearwater, Fl. The Festival also offers an opportunity for those who want to learn jazz, The School of Jazz. Duane Evans is the founder of the school and was created after the first festival.

“Now a days Jazz is a tough sell, especially in this part of the world. The school shows students the roots of which their favorite music is stemmed from,” said Evans. Evans who is a former educator brought this program to life from his past educational duties and introduced it to the festival and has been exposing others to the genre. He hopes that the love of jazz will stick with the younger generations and keep it alive for years to come. The school teaches something different every year and this year Ginsberg Music will be hosting the school which is free to the public.

The Roswell Museum and Art Center is also helping with the festival by hosting a block party. The party will include a Latin Jazz group who will be performing on an outdoor stage led by Chuck Redd and joined by nine of the festival headliners. The event is free and open to the public.

The 6th annual Roswell Jazz Festival will begin at noon at the Courthouse Lawn Oct. 7, and will continue on through the weekend at various venues throughout the downtown area.

The Jazz Festival has big visions for the future of this festivaland hopes to keeping bringing music to the city. The committee extends their thanks to the Roswell Lodgers Tax for being a key contributor to making this event possible.

Don’t be afraid to ‘wage war’ when disciplining children

Q: Our 8-year -old son isn’t overtly rebellious, but he definitely has “selective hearing.” We have to demand that he get ready for bed three or four times, for example. Is it worth waging war to make him comply instantly?

Jim: Yes, it’s probably worth “waging war,” at least in the long term. If you let him get away with ignoring your instructions, you’re probably setting him up for heartache in the future.

Although you might not like to hear it, what you’re describing sounds like a case of overly permissive parenting. It might start as a seemingly harmless compromise at bedtime. But the next thing you know, you may find yourself taking up slack for your son in all sorts of areas ... making excuses to his teachers when homework is late, or coddling him when he whines and tries to manip-

ulate you.

Dr. Kevin Leman offers some great advice for parents who tend to be too permissive. First, it’s OK to get mean! Not in the sense of screaming or being abusive, of course. But parents need to establish firm rules and expectations, and be willing to administer punishment when those rules aren’t followed. Your son will likely see this approach as “mean,” but you’re actually teaching him respect and self-discipline.

Dr. Leman also suggests that parents not issue warnings to their children.

Giving an instruction once is enough. Repeating yourself can send two harmful messages to your son: 1)”Mom and Dad don’t really mean what they’re saying;” and 2) “Mom and Dad think I’m incompetent because they say everything three or four times.”

If you feel you’ve been too

permissive, don’t despair.

Your son may be shocked at first when you decide to enforce the rules more decisively, but he may just thank you later on for putting those boundaries in place. Employing these simple steps can add a huge measure of peace and sanity to your household, as well. ** ** ** Q: Our oldest son is 8 years old and was invited to sleep over at a friend’s house. I remember sleepovers and slumber parties as a kid, but things have changed since then. My husband says I’m paranoid,

but I’m just not comfortable letting my son sleep over at someone else’s house. What’s your advice?

Juli: My advice is to trust your “mother’s instincts.” I would be very leery of sleepovers unless you know the child’s family very well.

Leaving an 8-year -old in the care of another family is not something to take lightly. Does the family share your value system?

Will it be a safe environment? Although most sleepovers are nothing more than good, clean fun, you need to be certain that your child would not be at risk. For example, most

President of Consumer Affairs with Wilton Enterprises in Woodridge, Ill. Connie Moyers is going to demonstrate two delicious recipes, as well as share other suggestions for preparing some quick meals, using either your electric skillet or the microwave oven. Moyers is with the New Mexico Cooperative Extension Service and lives in Clovis.

Georgia Durante is a professional stunt car driver and former model who was involved in an abusive relationship for years before finding the courage to change her life.

Her story deals with a topic that needs to be

shared with others.

Durante is from North Hollywood, Calif.

the burden of driving,” she says.

The number of seats car buyers seek is typically nonnegotiable, said Rob Hardy, consumer preference product manager for Edmunds.com. “There are certain things people will trade off, like price vs. luxury or speed vs. fuel economy, but the number of seats — there’s no tradeoff,” he says.

Hardy’s own family bade farewell to a five-seater and said hello to a minivan a year after getting kicked out of a carpool that grew too large for his car. “Everyone except us had a minivan so we were booted,” he said.

While workplace carpooling has dropped markedly since 1980, several experts said kids’ carpools may be on the rise, although there are no statistics. Raymond De Young, a professor of environmental psychology and planning at the University of Michigan who has studied workplace carpooling, says it’s not just the economy that has more parents thinking about carpooling.

Families might be carpooling more in part to live a “green” lifestyle and be environmentally conscious role models for their children, and they’re more familiar with and open to the concept of carpooling.

And he noted that parents drive more because fewer kids walk or bike on their own.

Naturally, there’s guilt if parents can’t participate fully because they have a smaller car. Corridan suggests that smaller-car parents offer to reciprocate another way, such as minding a child after school. “Sometimes there’s an element of bartering,” she said.

With all the benefits of carpooling — which include making the ride a little more fun for the kids — there are also downsides.

Although parents are thankful for their carpooling comrades, “there’s a lot of negative feelings that come up because there’s a lot of opportunity to interact with parents who might do things differently,” Corridan said.

Gone are the days when kids were allowed to pile into the way back of the station wagon for a carefree, unbelted ride.

Today, there’s the parent who plays music with inappropriate lyrics, the child who misbehaves, and the mom who’s running late or texts behind the wheel, Corridan said. Some parents say they’ve heard of kids being left in the car alone or riding without a seat belt.

“We advise you to have deal breakers — something you can’t budge on, like anything that jeopardizes the child’s safety,” Corridan says.

There’s also the danger of competitive carpooling: In Roslyn, N.Y., mom Barbara Adler cites the social pressures. Some parents, she says, fill their vehicles — sometimes over capacity — with kids they want their children to be seen with, regardless of how far away they live.

“It is beyond a hot topic in my neighborhood,” said Adler, 50, who has boys ages 12, 14 and 16 who play tennis and basketball.

Carpools are “talked about.

They’re criticized, They are joked about. They are a source of worry and concern. There are multiple layers of issues that are triggered by the word ‘carpool.’ If you’re in one? If you’re not? Who’s in your carpool? That’s a standard question.”

For Stevenson, things are simpler. She feels grateful for her neighbors who take her kids to activities.

“To have people that are so close both in proximity and mindset that I would blindly hand them my chil-

incidents of childhood sexual abuse are committed by people a child knows, including family members and friends.

Whenever your child goes over to a friend’s house for a sleepover or otherwise, be sure he understands appropriate boundaries and knows that he can contact you at any time.

Don’t shy away from asking the parents questions, like who will be home with the kids, what movies they might watch, and whether they will have access to the Internet. I’ve turned bright red while asking these questions, but my embarrassment is worth protecting my kids.

More and more families are avoiding the whole issue by adopting a “no sleepover” rule for their kids. Instead, they let their children attend birthday parties but pick them up at night before bedtime. Sure,

your son may miss an exciting game of truth-ordare at midnight, but it is better to be safe than sorry.

Unfortunately, in today’s environment, a little parental paranoia is warranted. ** ** ** Jim Daly is president of Focus on the Family, host of the Focus on the Family radio program, and a husband and father of two.

The carpool: Has this become the staple of modern parenting?

BY LISA A. FLAM FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS With three kids who need to get to soccer, lacrosse, football, cheer and swim team — not to mention school — Allison Stevenson says her eight-seater minivan is crucial for carpooling.

“I always have extra children in my car. I couldn’t function with a smaller car,” says Stevenson, 37, of Greer, S.C., who bought her Honda Odyssey in 2007.

Stevenson, who has 6and 8-year-old daughters and a 10-year -old son, shares a morning carpool to school with a neighbor and swaps rides with other parents after school.

“They have lots of children involved in lots of activities, so we depend on each other to get everybody to where they need to be,” says Stevenson, adding that most of her neighbors also have vehicles with the important-for -carpooling third row of seats.

Sure, carpooling has been around for decades.

Kids got carted around in the big station wagons of the ‘70s and early ‘80s, then the minivans of the ‘90s and, most recently, the SUV. But the carpool has become an important piece of the parenting puzzle for some parents of heavily scheduled kids.

“Unfortunately, it’s imperative these days that your child is extremely well-rounded,” says Stevenson, who believes after school activities can impart lessons in dedication and teamwork that are important later in life. “There is pressure for your children to do a thousand different things.”

Many parents also see carpooling as a way to save money, time, and wear and tear in a time of higher gas prices and a shaky economy.

Kara Corridan, health editor of Parents magazine,

says carpooling may be more common now because more women have reentered the work force; fewer children walk to school; and there are more extracurricular activities, and sports being offered at younger ages. Without sharing the driving, parents say they couldn’t do all they want for their kids.

“For some parents, it’s vital,” says Corridan, whose own family began helping another with rides after the mother went back to work.

With more seven-seat (or larger) vehicles on the market today than there were 10 years ago, more families are now driving big cars, says TrueCar.com analyst Jesse Toprak. TrueCar.com found that eight of the 10 most popular cars bought by drivers ages 28 to 45 in 2009 and 2010 had at least seven seats.

“The main buyers of the vehicles are the parents with school-age children, which clearly, at that age group, carpooling becomes a factor,” Toprak says.

In Folsom, Calif., Lori Barudoni has been part of eight carpools over the last 13 years, and says they gave her the flexibility to send her children to a mix of public and private schools. She began carpooling when her oldest child was in preschool and she was driving a five-seat car. She quickly realized the carpool math: With more seats, she’d be able to carpool with more families and reduce her own driving.

“After that, when I went to purchase my next car, I said, ‘It’s got to be a 7seater,”’ Barudoni, 48, recalls of her minivan purchase about a decade ago.

While the gas for a bigger vehicle may cost more, the carpools have saved her time and money. “My gas bill actually goes down with the larger vehicle because I can carry more kids, which means more families share

Household wealth dipped in the spring C4 Sunday, September 18, 2011

WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans’ wealth declined this spring for the first time in a year, as stocks and home values fell. At the same time, corporations increased the size of their cash stockpiles.

The combination could slow an already weak economy because it means businesses and consumers are spending less.

Household net worth dropped 0.3 percent to $58.5 trillion in the April-June quarter, according to a Federal Reserve report released Friday. That followed three straight quarterly increases.

The value of Americans’ stock

SUNDAY BUSINESS

portfolios fell 0.5 percent to $8.9 trillion in the second quarter.

Home values dropped 0.4 percent to just under $16.2 trillion.

Declining wealth is the latest risk to the economy, which is already struggling with high unemployment and meager pay raises. People spend less when they feel poorer, and that slows growth.

Businesses respond by cutting back on hiring and expansion plans. Corporations held a record $2 trillion in cash at the end of June, an increase of 4.5 percent from the January-March quarter.

It can become a cycle.

Budgets matter to businesses

Stocks fell even further in late July and early August. A key reason was the government said the economy barely grew in the first half of the year. Investors also reacted to lawmakers’ battle over raising the government’s borrowing limit and Standard & Poor’s downgrade of long-ter m U.S. debt.

“August put a big dent in whatever confidence consumers had left,” said Greg McBride, senior financial analyst at Bankrate.com. That’s a big reason retail sales were flat last month, he added.

Overall, household wealth,

Roswell Daily Record

which mostly consists of home equity, stock portfolios, and other savings, has risen 15 percent since the recession of ficially ended in June 2009.

The main reason for that is one of the fastest bull markets in history. Stocks have doubled in value over the past two years, according to the S&P 500 index.

But Americans’ wealth has taken a hit since the second quarter. The S&P index has tumbled 11 percent since its April peak, and 8 percent since the end of the quarter. That could cause household net worth to drop further in the July-September quar-

ter.

Stock portfolios make up about 15 percent of Americans’ wealth.

That’s less than housing but ahead of bank deposits, according to the Fed’s report.

An estimated 88 percent of people with 401(k) retirement savings plans now have more money in their accounts than they did at the 2007 market top, according to Jack VanDerhei of the Employee Benefit Research Institute in Washington. That’s largely because of workers’ continued contributions to their accounts over the past four years.

Business owners striving to survive the tough economy need to know how cash flows in and out of their business.

A good place to start is with a budget — a basic tool used to forecast when cash will be collected and when expenses must be paid.

Many business owners don’t take the time to create a budget, or they neglect to update the one they have. In this slow economic recovery, it’s more important than ever to know where money is going. Financial institutions also want to know; banks often require that borrowers include a budget with their loan requests.

Understanding how to create a business budget is vital to improving a business’s chance of survival. A good budget has six key components.

• Current description of the business and its market.

Describe the economic factors affecting the business and its cash flow. Include how sales are recorded and collected (cash, credit card) and the estimated length of time between billing and collection. The same details should address how bills are normally paid. Business activities fluctuate and this section should reflect precisely what is being done now.

• Explanation of how the budget supports the company’s mission, vision, values and goals. Budget items should support the company’s overall objectives. Items that don’t correspond to goals should be questioned. If a company doesn’t already have a mission statement, this is a good time to compose one. This step ensures money isn’t being spent inappropriately.

• Line-items that describe and account for allocated funds. Typical examples include staff and payroll; real estate, including rents and utilities; equipment needs; and production materials. Costs should be split between fixed expenses — those such as rent that continue whether or not sales are made — and variables that fluctuate with production or sales levels. Although it can be tedious to maintain a detailed budget for all company expenditures, the extra work provides essential information to manage cash flow. The budget can track expenses and guide spending decisions.

• Performance expectations. A budget is useful for analysis only if it is updated regularly to accurately reflect actual spending. Items that may have been under- or over-budgeted, and thus caused cash to deviate from projections, can be analyzed and controlled in the future.

• Supporting appendices. These may include historical budgets and their corresponding results analyses, departmental documents, cost trends and market projections.

Supporting documents should provide a record of why decisions were made and whether estimates were based on the prior year’s expenditures or forecasted market conditions.

• Executive summary. This section condenses all of the information in the budget and provides practical “takeaway” information. More important, the executive summary can make the budget more digestible to lenders and outside investors.

To learn more about how cash flow can be leveraged to optimize a business’s fiscal health, attend a workshop hosted by Accounting & Consulting Group, LLP at one of their six New Mexico offices. The next one will be held on Sept.

23 in Albuquerque. For more information, contact Marla Gorena, MBA at mgorena@acgnm.com.

‘Due process, and other fables’ Native American Sandra Schaefer prays for her son, Matthew, one recent morning at her home in Roswell. Below, posing for a portrait in her living room, Schaefer holds up a picutre of her son.

Roswell woman launches justice group for Native Americans EMILY RUSSO MILLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

Every morning and evening, Sandra Schaefer kneels on both knees, raises her hands to the heavens and prays for the fate of her son, who has been detained in a Los Angeles jail since January, in the foyer of her Roswell home.

Her son, Matthew, is facing child abuse charges, but Schaefer says the only thing he is guilty of is spanking his fiance’s child.

“He never abused a child,” Schaefer said. “He spanked his fiance's 6year-old son — one spanking.”

Dealing with the law has been a nightmare, Schaefer says, from not being able to afford his bail, to hiring incompetent attor ney after attorney, to traveling back and forth from her New Mexico residence to California. But navigating the legal system has been an eye opener to the retired 65-year-old former business owner, who is half Lakota Sioux.

For one thing, there was no place for her to turn to receive help in her son’s case. Most legal advice for Native Americans dealt with land rights, she said, not alleged child abuse. She also strongly believes her son was discriminated against as a Native American, and has been treated worse than criminals accused of rape and murder.

“He's on $100,000 bail,” she said, adding that Matthew is a Sundancer, who is considered to be a holy man to the Lakota tribe. “You would think he was the criminal of the world.”

The ongoing ordeal has forced Chicago-born Schaefer, who retired with her husband, Greg, in Roswell a few years ago, to learn more about the legal history of Native Americans in the United States, which she studied in her 20s at University of California Los Angeles. What she learned has shocked her into opening her own business in Roswell this past month. It’s called Native Americans for Social Justice, and it aims to provide resources, information and funding for Native Americans struggling with legal and social injustices. (She is also in the process of applying for a nonprofit status for the organization.) She is penning a book about it, called “Due Process and other fables for Native Americans.”

“The concept of Native Americans for Social Justice arrives out of my desire to provide a clearinghouse for resources and information to help people,” Schaefer said.

Native Americans face a sundry of injustices today, she argues, ranging from a rejection of their culture in the public school system and lack of access to quality health care to poverty. But most modern issues stem from a history of being mar-

ginalized in society, she said.

Native Americans still don’t have the right to appeal court decisions to a state, federal or supreme court and virtually lack judicial review, she says, and they weren’t considered people in the Constitution, in addition to the well-known saga of Indians being pushed off their land, as authorized by the 1830 Indian Removal Act passed by Congress.

“In fact, Thomas Jefferson in a statement he made said Indians are like the wild wolves of the woods — They should be driven to the stony mountains and killed. So that from one of the founding fathers,” Schaeffer said. “George Washington himself chased Indians, hunted them down and killed them.”

Today, about 4.1 million Native Americans live in America, and 165,944 in New Mexico, according to 2006 estimates. Schaefer urges them all to contact her new business if they are in need.

“When we learn to stand united, we'll have a stronger voice, and we'll have ways to carry forth and overcome the issues that are nearly killing our people,” she said. “If they remain the silent majority, they're going to become an endangered species.”

White House wary of Solyndra re-election effects

AP Photo

In this Aug. 31 file photo, Solyndra workers leave Solyndra in Fremont, Calif.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration was worried about the financial health of a troubled solar energy company even as officials publicly declared the company in good shape, newly released emails show.

An email from a White House budget official to a co-worker discussed the likely effect of a default by Solyndra Inc. on President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign.

“The optics of a Solyndra default will be bad,” an official from the Office of Management and Budget wrote in a Jan. 31 email to a senior OMB official. “The timing will likely coincide with the 2012 campaign season heating up.”

The email, released by the House Energy and Commerce Committee as part of its investigation into a half-billion dollar federal loan to Solyndra, said the budget official wanted White House budget director Jacob Lew to warn Energy Secretary Steven Chu about the risk posed by Solyndra, which was once the poster child for the Obama administration’s clean energy

program but by early this year was teetering on collapse.

At the time of the email, the Energy Department was pushing to release an additional $67 million to Solyndra. The Fremont, Calif.-based solar panel maker received a total of $528 million in federal loans before declaring bankruptcy Aug. 31 and laying off 1,100 workers.

The Silicon Valley company was the first renewable-energy company to receive a loan guarantee under the stimulus law, and the Obama administration frequently touted Solyndra as a model for its clean energy program. President Barack Obama visited the company’s headquarters last year.

Even as Obama declared that “the future is here” during a May 2010 visit to Solyndra, warning signs were being sent from within the government and from outside analysts who questioned the company’s viability as a “going concern.”

At least three reports by federal watchdogs over the past two years warned that the Energy Department had not fully

developed the controls needed to manage the multibillion-dollar loan program.

Emails obtained by The Associated Press show that a White House official dismissed reports about Solyndra’s gloomy future. An email from Greg Nelson, a White House official who had been involved in the planning of Obama’s May 2010 trip to Solyndra’s headquarters, to a Solyndra executive downplayed a July 2010 news story in a trade publication that criticized the company’s financial health.

“Seems B.S.,” Nelson wrote.

A 2009 report by the Energy Department’s inspector general warned that the DOE lacked the necessary quality control for the loan guarantee program, which was created in 2005 to support clean-energy projects that could not obtain conventional bank loans due to high risks.

In July 2010, the Government Accountability Office said the Energy Department had bypassed required steps for funding awards to five of 10 applicants that received conditional loan guarantees.

Sinise honors wounded vets at SC’s Lt. Dan Weekend Roswell Daily Record

BEAUFORT, S.C. (AP) — Ever since playing Lt. Dan — the character in the movie “Forrest Gump” who lost his legs fighting in Vietnam — actor Gary Sinise has devoted time and treasure to helping the nation’s military personnel and first responders.

Last week he returned to South Carolina’s Lowcountry, where much of the 1994 film was shot, for the second annual Lt. Dan Weekend, a gathering of military personnel and vets who wer e sever ely wounded in Afghanistan and Iraq.

Volunteers raise donations so the vets have a chance to get away.

Sinise’s Lt. Dan Band scheduled a benefit concert on the Beaufort waterfront Friday night.

“We have a lot of folks who ar e banged up out there and need our help,” said Sinise, the star of “CSI-New York,” during a Thursday reception for the 65 wounded personnel, their caregivers and families attending the four-day weekend.

“I always r emember this gr eat Calvin Coolidge quote that the nation that forgets its heroes will itself be forgotten.”

The cover band, formed in 2004, plays about 40 shows a year, most of them for charity and many for military personnel and veterans. Sinise has also for med a foundation to support the military and first responders.

Tickets and T-shirts for a waterfront concert by actor Gary Sinise and the Lt. Dan Band are sold in Beaufort, S.C., on Thursday.

The idea of the Lt. Dan Weekend came from Steve “Luker” Danyluk, who in 2007 founded the Independence Fund which provides support for those who suf fer ed sever e wounds in the war on terror.

Danyluk, who moved to the Beaufort ar ea two years ago, is a Marine vet who served in Iraq and later worked with the wounded at the Military Severely Injured Center.

He said he was sitting in a

restaurant with his wife and saw pictur es fr om “Forr est Gump” on the wall.

“It just popped into my head that we should get Gary Sinise here to do a benefit because he had performed for us in Dallas,” he said, adding that he e-mailed Sinise. “I didn’t know if I would get anything back but I got a response in about 20 minutes.”

Sinise replied “Lt. Dan Band in Beaufort — make

it happen,” he recalled.

This weekend’s events include the concert, a bike ride, golf tournament, an art exhibit dealing with the wars and films, including a presentation of “Happy New Year,” about injured veterans dealing with the psychological scars of combat.

More than $1.5 million has been raised through the two Lt. Dan weekends.

“It’s a purely volunteer effort. We don’t have any big corporate sponsors

although American Airlines ran a flight to bring in the band,” Danyluk said. “Gary has donated everything.”

Judy Ferguson, a 69year -old r etir ee fr om Bluffton who was helping with the reception, said the wounded warriors bring home what the military has been dealing with for a decade.

“When you see them, you have no doubt in your mind of what these guys are facing,” she said.

One of the wounded is 22-year -old Marine Cpl. Justin Gaertner, who lost his lower legs to an IED, or improvised explosive device, in Afghanistan. He was working with a unit sweeping mines.

He said he has been walking on artificial legs for about six months now and has gone water skiing, scuba diving, kayaking, fishing and sky diving.

“It’s all about who you are. If you are self-motivated and want to go out and do that stuff you can,” he said.

But he’s not sur e he now wants to stay in the Marines.

“Unless they give me my metal detector back, I don’t want to stay in,” he said. “I’m not the kind of guy to sit behind a desk.”

Danyluk said it’s sometimes hard for people to deal with the sever ely injured.

“It’s r eally painful to look at somebody who has a severe injury and you can’t help think, ‘What if it was me,”’ he said.

“Not everybody wants to go to a hospital and visit wounded soldiers,” Sinise agreed. “As many as the dozens and dozens of times I have visited the hospital, there is always a little bit of apprehension because you don’t know what you’re going to see.”

But as you get there, he said, “You forget about yourself and put yourself in their shoes and they are happy to see you.”

Rare minnows rescued from Texas river amid drought

FOR T WOR TH, Texas (AP) — Wildlife biologists scooped up minnows from a shrinking Texas river Friday in one of the first rescues of fish threatened by the state’s worst drought in decades.

Hundreds of smalleye shiners and sharpnose shiners were collected from the Brazos River, about 175 miles northwest of Fort Worth. They will be taken to the state’s fish hatchery but returned to the river when the drought abates.

Scientists waded through the muddy river bed to reach the shallow pools of water, where they used a large net to scoop up the finger-size fish and put them in buckets.

With the water drying up in the drought, the fish don’t have the 100 miles of river they need to reproduce. And, their life span is just two years, so scientists are scrambling to save the two species.

Both are candidates to be listed as threatened or endangered under the federal Endangered Species Act. While they are the most abundant fish in the upper Brazos, they are found nowhere else in the world.

“If this drought continues for another year and they haven’t reproduced . . . we may lose the entire population,” said Gene Wilde, a fish ecology professor at Texas Tech who has spent much

This kind of large-scale effort is

Serb mother says son, nephew are human magnets

GORNJI MILANOVAC, Serbia (AP) — Two small boys from a central Serbian town are able to attract metal objects, acting much like human magnets, according to their mother. It’s a claim that is raising doubts among some experts.

Sanja Petrovic, the mother of 4-year-old David, said it first came to her attention “about a month ago.”

“I asked him to fetch me a spoon so I cold feed his little brother, and he yelled back: ’Mom, it sticks!”’ Petrovic recalled. “I found him with several spoons and forks hanging from his body.”

Terrified, the 26-year-old woman — who lives in the town of Gornji Milanovac — phoned her sister, who discovered that her son, Luka, 6, has the same attraction.

“Other kids in the family can’t do this, just the two of them,” Petrovic said.

The phenomenon is rare and so far medically unexplained. Several similar cases, however, have recently been reported in the media in Serbia, and also in Croatia and Bosnia.

“As far as I know, there is no medical or scientific explanation,” radiologist Mihajlo Dodic, who runs a practice in the Serbian capital, Belgrade, said.

Other experts questioned whether the boys actually have any special abilities.

“I doubt very much that someone is magnetic,” said Patrick Regan, a physics professor at the University of Surrey in Britain. “Humans are made of the wrong material to be magnetic. Humans are mostly water and water does not have any magnetic properties.”

“It would be pretty unsafe to have metal objects sticking to you against the force of gravity,” he added. “You couldn’t switch something like that off — unless it’s fake.”

Luka’s father, Slavisa Lukic, said doctors have examined the boys, and announced them to be perfectly healthy, adding that they should be monitored as they grow up. “Nobody can tell us why this is happening,” he said.

David’s mother said her son loses his magnetic powers when he is asleep, but regains them when he wakes up and starts moving.

When he plays with his friends “anything will stick to him,” she said. Afterward, he will feel a little chilly and tired, she said.

Both David and Luka are happy to put on a show for visitors. On cue, the boys proudly smile and raise their hands in the air to show that cutlery and plates stick to their bodies without assistance.

The rest of the family also seem to have grown accustomed to the peculiarity and the attention.

“It was in shock at first, but now we just try to keep the knives away from them,” Petrovic says.

rare. But as the drought persists, rescues could become more common for fish, amphibians and other creatures in Texas, which is home to 86 species considered endangered or threatened.

There has been a push for more fish rescues as early as this

fall in Central and West Texas.

The San Saba, Colorado and Llano rivers are home to several species of mussels, some of which are listed as threatened in Texas and for which petitions are pending for federal status.

Several federally endangered

species — including the fountain darter and the Texas blind salamander — could need rescuing from the Comal and San Marcos Springs, south of Austin. If stream flows drop to pre-determined levels, biologists with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will evacuate as many samples of the species as possible.

About 88 percent of the state is in the worst stage of drought, according to the U.S. Drought Monitor map released Thursday.

Texas just finished its driest 11 months on record and is in its worst single-year drought ever.

Texas also had the hottest June through August on record in the U.S. When the Brazos River and its forks have healthy flows, the minnows live by picking bugs out of the water or sifting through the sandy dunes formed by currents.

They can migrate more than 100 miles upstream to spawn and release their buoyant eggs to float downstream to hatch.

The 2-inch-long minnows are prey to game fish like catfish or largemouth bass, according to a release Thursday from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department.

“If we lose them, we won’t have the same ecological vitality,” Wilde said in the release.

For auction: Il Duce’s last suitcase of clothes ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — An Army corporal stationed in Italy in the waning days of World War II acquired a suitcase of war booty he sent home and stowed in a bedroom closet in upstate New York for 65 years. In it: Il Duce’s duds.

The brown leather suitcase was purported to have been taken from Benito Mussolini when the Fascist dictator and his mistress, Claretta Petacci, were captured and executed by partisans in April 1945 as they tried to flee northern Italy along with retreating German forces.

The family of Paul Moriconi, a

Rochester doctor who died last year at 87, said he acquired the suitcase from his supervisor, Col. Charles Poletti, a regional commissioner for the Allied military government in Italy who had served briefly as New York’s governor in 1942.

The ensemble — a gray gabardine military tunic, matching riding pants, a khaki Italian military shirt and a rust-colored woolen dress — is being auctioned in Dallas today by Greg Martin Auctions/Heritage Auctions, which estimates it could fetch $10,000 to $15,000.

Martin, a specialist in antique arms,

armor and historic memorabilia who sold a globe that once belonged to Adolf Hitler for $100,000 at a 2007 auction in San Francisco, said “the provenance of this material is impeccable.”

The uniform carries no identifying marks linking it to Mussolini. The jacket had no medals attached, and a tuxedo stripe running up the side of the trousers had been removed. But the tale of how the items came into Moriconi’s possession was recounted in a formal letter Poletti sent on request to his former personal secretary in 2001.

Jonah Hill’s boyhood aim: Longtime Opry star Wilma Lee Live with ‘The Simpsons’ TORONTO (AP) — At around age 7, Jonah Hill had a simple ambition: to live in Springfield, hometown of “The Simpsons.”

That is what Hill told his parents back then when they asked him what he wanted to do with his life.

Once they explained to their little boy about the impracticalities of living in a cartoon town alongside Homer, Marge, Bart and Lisa Simpson, Hill revised his goal.

“They said, ‘You can’t live there.

It’s not a real place. There are people that write what Homer says, and there’s a guy that is Homer’s voice, and there are people that animate all those characters,” Hill said in an interview at the Toronto International Film Festival, where his latest film, “Moneyball,” premiered.

“And I said, ‘I want to write what Homer says.’ So that says a lot that a 7-year-old, my ambition as a 7year -old was to be a writer on a prime-time animated series. Most kids that age, they say they want to be a fireman or whatever.”

The 27-year-old star of “Superbad,” “Get Him to the Greek” and next year’s big-screen update of “21 Jump Street” eventually got to hang out in Springfield as a guest voice star on “The Simpsons.” Hill also has achieved his aim of writing for a TV cartoon show as creator and voice star of the animated show “Allen Gregory,” about a precocious 7-year-old boy.

Opening Monday, “Moneyball” continues Hill’s move from comedic roles into more serious parts that began with last year’s “Cyrus,” in which he played a mama’s boy trying to sabotage the relationship of his mother (Marisa Tomei) and her new boyfriend (John C. Reilly).

Adapted from the book by Michael Lewis, “Moneyball” chronicles the efforts of Oakland A’s general manager Billy Beane (Brad Pitt, Hill’s voice co-star in last fall’s animated comedy “Megamind”) to build a winning team on a meager budget and compete with franchises that have three times as much money to spend on players.

Hill plays Beane’s new aide, Peter Brand, an Ivy League-schooled economist who uses his statistical genius to crunch numbers to identify under-appreciated players that can be signed for peanuts compared with baseball’s superstars.

Unlike the film’s real-life characters, Brand is a composite of a number of economic analysts Beane

hired, “with a little Jonah sprinkled on top,” Pitt joked.

Also a producer on “Moneyball,” Pitt said Hill is part of a wave of comedic actors, including Danny McBride and Russell Brand, who are “pushing the irreverence, but there’s a truth to it. It’s all grounded in some kind of personal pain or need or pathos.”

“I love him and love what he does,” Pitt said. “But upon meeting him, you meet a guy, I’ve been marveling at him, he’s just incredibly open. He’s not cagey, he’s not protective in any way. Really, really genuine in his exuberance for the people around him and for life. If we were populated by Jonah Hills, it would be a really nice place.”

True to his early goal of putting words in Homer Simpson’s mouth, Hill started writing in college, trying his hand at short stage scenarios.

The move into acting began with an attempt to improve his lines of communication.

“I really found that I couldn’t talk to actors. I didn’t know how to express what I wanted them to do,” Hill said. “So I took an acting class to become a better writer and director and learn how to talk to actors, and from that, I fell in love with acting. That was the impetus for all of this. From that moment on, I was like, oh, there isn’t that crazy sepa-

ration between the three. That’s why a lot of the people I love can do all of that, because it’s really about your voice.”

One of Hill’s idols was Dustin Hoffman, whose children happened to be college classmates of his in New York City. Hoffman helped Hill land his first screen role in 2004’s “I (Heart) Huckabees.”

A year later, Hill hooked up with the Judd Apatow comedy gang for a scene-stealing bit as an eBay outlet browser desperate to buy a pair of gaudy boots. He has been an Apatow regular ever since, as leading man in “Superbad” and “Get Him to the Greek” and supporting player in “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” and “Funny People.”

Hill also was a voice co-star in “How to Train Your Dragon” and stars as the world’s worst babysitter in “The Sitter,” due in theaters this December.

“21 Jump Street,” a new take on the show that made Johnny Depp a star in the late 1980s, casts Hill and Channing Tatum as cops who go undercover as high schoolers to investigate youth crime. Hill, who co-wrote the screenplay, had not been a fan of the show but was struck by the action and comedy possibilities as he watched the old episodes on DVD. “I realized this is just a great idea, the idea of young-looking cops going back to high school, once we cracked the idea of, they think they’ve moved on and grown up and matured,” Hill said. “But once they go back, they immediately revert to the same insecurities from when they were 16 years old.”

Hill’s “Moneyball” character reveals plenty of social insecurities himself. Economist Peter is short, nerdy and nervous, out of his element among athletes and coaches.

He could have made a fortune using his statistical talents in the business world, Hill reasoned, yet Peter sticks around the front office running the numbers on pitchers, batters and infielders.

“A big key for me is I realized he just loved baseball,” Hill said. “He couldn’t do anything else. It’s like I couldn’t do anything else but movies. I got lucky and won the lottery, but I just couldn’t do anything else.”

Cooper is dead

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Wilma Lee Cooper, who teamed with husband Stoney Cooper as a top country duo for some three decades and earned the title “The First Lady of Bluegrass,” is dead. She was 90.

She died Tuesday of natural causes at her home in Sweetwater, Tenn., The Grand Ole Opry announced Friday.

She and her husband began recording in the late 1940s, then performed regularly on the Opry from 1957 until his death in 1977. She continued as a solo singer on the show until 2001.

With her husband, they had such hits as “Cheated Too,” “There’s a Big Wheel” and “Come Walk With Me.” The two were members of the West Virginia Music Hall of Fame.

Wilma Lee was known for her big voice and boundless enthusiasm.

In 1974, the Smithsonian Institution honored her as “The First Lady of Blue-

grass.”

She had a stroke at age 80 in 2001, leaving her voice and speech affected.

After that, she lived in Sweetwater with a caretaker.

In February 2005, she walked onto the stage during an Opry show at the R yman Auditorium and received a standing ovation.

She also joined in a group sing-along in September 2010 when the Grand Ole Opry House reopened after being closed four months because of flooding.

Cooper was born in Valley Head, W.Va., and sang with her parents and siblings as the bluegrass and gospel group The Leary Family.

The Coopers’ daughter, Carol Lee, performed on the Opry beginning in 1975.

The Opry said she asked that there be no memorial service.

“She will be remembered for her music and her faith,” the Opry statement said.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — Colorado Springs bail bondsman Bobby Brown is suing the creators of the A&E television show “Dog the Bounty Hunter” for more than $75,000 in damages.

The lawsuit filed on Wednesday against A&E, Hybrid Films and D&D Television says Brown appeared in more than 40 shows of “Dog the Bounty Hunter.” It says he was paid $6,000 for his contributions

but wasn’t compensated for each Colorado episode.

KRDO-TV in Colorado Springs reports Brown feels the network and the show’s creators used his likeness for their own gain without properly compensating him and made false promises that led him to focus on the show instead of his bail bonds business.

KRDO reported that A&E hadn’t returned its phone calls seeking comment Friday.

Party crasher: Journey guitarist broke up marriage

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Celebrity White House gate crasher Tareq Salahi filed for divorce Friday, claiming his wife was flaunting her af fair with the lead guitarist for the rock band Journey.

Tareq Salahi filed paperwork in Warren County saying his wife, Michaele Salahi, abandoned the marriage when she left their Virginia home Tuesday to be with Neal Schon in Tennessee. He also accused Schon of emailing him a picture of a penis, though he doesn’t elaborate as to why.

“Over the objections of me, she continually exposes our friends and acquaintances to her adulterous relationship and has flaunted the same throughout the community, the nation and indeed the world, and thus caused ... me to suffer great harm, humiliation, and embarrassment,” he said in the divorce petition.

Schon did not return an email. A representative for the group did not return a call seeking comment. Neither Tareq Salahi nor his attor ney retur ned messages seeking comment.

Tareq reported his wife missing the day she reportedly ran off with Schon. He told police he feared she had been kidnapped, but authorities who talked to her said she told them she was “where she wanted to be.”

Court documents say the couple had a prenuptial agreement, but the terms were not specified. The couple was married in November 2003.

“There is no hope or possibility of reconciliation,” Tareq Salahi said, adding that he “has been greatly hurt and disturbed” by Michaele Salahi’s actions.

The couple gained notoriety in 2009 when they crashed a White House state dinner. Michaele Salahi was a cast member

of the reality show “Real Housewives of D.C.” last year, but the show was canceled after one season.

She was thrown of f the reality show “Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew” when it became apparent she wasn’t addicted to anything.

Tareq Salahi said in the court filing that Schon was his wife’s former boyfriend.

Schon’s band had played at the couple’s northern Virginia winery, and photos on social networking websites show them partying with the band on several occasions. He also said the band paid for his wife’s travel, accommodations and other expenses.

Tareq Salahi claims he has suffered both emotional and physical harm from his wife’s actions. In addition to being able to stay in their home, he asked the court to ban both parties from harming the value of their assets, threatening or harassing each other.

Will Arnett, Amy Poehler keep Emmy rehearsals casual

LOS ANGELES (AP) — The Emmy Awards were still a day away, but the Nokia Theatre was already abuzz Saturday as celebrities popped in to rehearse their lines for Sunday’s ceremony.

TV stars such as Will Arnett, Amy Poehler and Zooey Deschanel practiced presenting awards on the swooping Emmy stage inside the mostly empty theater.

Seat-saving placards sat where real stars will be Sunday. Laura Linney, nominated for her lead role on “The Big C,” and multiple nominee (and repeat winner) Jon Stewart both have aisle seats for

easy stage access.

Poehler, a double nominee for producing and starring in “Parks and Recreation,” went makeup free for Saturday’s rehearsal.

Dressed casually in jeans, a button-down blouse, nude pumps and a ponytail, the actress jokingly presented an Emmy to Barack Obama, “for this rehearsal only.”

When producers asked her to practice accepting an award for an absent winner, Poehler playfully admonished the fake winner: “(He) thought he was too special to come tonight,” she said. “Bad move.”

Poehler, a double nominee for producing and starring in “Parks and Recreation,” went makeup free for Saturday’s rehearsal. Dressed casually in jeans, a button-down blouse, nude pumps and a ponytail, the actress jokingly presented an Emmy to Barack Obama, “for this rehearsal only.”

Poehler’s husband Arnett, a fellow Emmy nominee for his gueststarring role on “30 Rock,” carried a coffee cup on stage before running through his lines with co-presenter Deschanel. He wore jeans,

a T-shirt and a black jacket; she rocked a red sweater with a horse on it over skinny jeans and pumps. Together they retooled their presentation of the comedy series writing award.

“I was on a plane switching stuff around,” she told him.

Once they got their lines down, Deschanel was afraid to open the winner’s envelope.

“It says it. Can we say it?” she asked an off-stage director. She got the OK, presented a fake trophy to fake winners, and she, Arnett and two stand-ins disappeared beneath the stage.

Also rehearsing Saturday were the Tenors, who will perform during the show’s “In Memoriam” segment.

The Emmy Awards will be broadcast on Fox.

Hollywood balks at big budget movies as DVDs drop

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Hollywood — long considered the land of excess— is becoming more cost-conscious, as movie executives rethink what they’re willing to pay to make a blockbuster.

After years of beefing up budgets to meet audience expectations, movie studios are cutting back and canceling projects that are too costly. Half-baked, expensive movie ideas that would have received approval a few years ago are now under scrutiny. For movies that are made, producers have to settle for toned-down special effects, cheaper actors and fewer locations for shoots.

In the past five years, major studios have trimmed the annual number of films they release by nearly a third to cut costs and avoid having big movies compete head-to-head on opening weekends.

In July, two major projects were stopped mid-stream because of budget pressures.

The Walt Disney Co. halted “The Lone Ranger,” starring Johnny Depp, even though sets were already half-built in New Mexico. Universal pulled out of “The Dark Tower,” a three-movie, two-TV-series colossus based on books by Stephen King.

A person familiar with Disney’s thinking said the budget on “The Lone Ranger” was creeping north of $250 million, and the company wanted to shave it to around $200 million.

Universal, which became a unit of cable TV provider Comcast Corp. this year, withdrew from “The Dark Tower” because of problems with the business model, according to another person, who is familiar with that matter.

Neither person was authorized to speak publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Disney CEO Bob Iger explained the company’s approach to analysts in July.

“It’s our intention to take a very careful look at what films cost,” Iger said. “If we can’t get them to a level that we’re comfortable with, we think that we’re better off actually reducing the size of our slate than making films that are bigger and increasingly more risky.”

Blame it on declining DVD sales.

Until recently, studios could afford to churn out movies with heart-pumping action scenes featuring pricey special effects and high-salary actors.

Although many of those movies cost more than they garnered in ticket sales, Hollywood could count on overall strong sales of DVDs to make up for excessive expenses.

“The DVD buying boom covered up a lot of sins in the middle part of the last decade,” said Tom Adams, principal analyst and director of U.S. media for IHS Screen Digest.

But the curtain is falling on the DVD era. IHS said U.S. video disc sales fell from $10.3 billion in 2004 to $7 billion last year.

The popularity of low-cost rental options, such as Netflix and Redbox, along with the ease of piracy, has cut into DVD sales, making it tougher to profit from the movie business. Bluray disc sales and gains in digital purchases haven’t made up for the shortfall.

Hollywood economics have been strained by movie budgets that have been rising steadily over the past couple of decades.

To cut costs, some studios have dropped smaller budget movies with big-name, expensive actors, but kept making summer blockbusters based on franchises such as superheroes.

That trend has increased the average cost of major studio movies to $78 million in 2011 from about $42 million in 1995, according to Bruce Nash, the founder and president of Nash Information Services LLC, which operates The-Numbers.com Fewer small movies means that each big-budget project has more pressure to deliver. Nash believes Hollywood will rely on tried-and-true material — sequels and reboots — rather than take a chance on untested pricey projects that follow in the footsteps of “Avatar.”

“Studios are willing to spend money for well-established franchises,” Nash said. “There’s not that much enthusiasm in completely new franchises built from scratch.”

While Hollywood’s newfound frugality doesn’t exactly herald the coming of sock-puppet cinema, the belt-tightening is likely to favor more character-driven productions such as “The Help,” which struck box office gold with sales of $139 million so far, despite costing an estimated $25 million to make.

That was the strategy former Disney CEO Michael Eisner pursued when he brought cheap-toproduce but profitable films including “Down and Out in Beverly Hills” and “Ruthless People” to the big screen.

While the millions made on each film don’t stack up to the estimated $400 million profit on 20th Century Fox’s “Avatar,” Eisner characterized his strategy as an attempt to string together a series of small hits rather than always swinging for a home run.

Eisner said many major studio movie budgets these days appear frightening. Big films can make more money, and they can also lose a ton.

“Yes, you can make a small fortune, but you better come with a large fortune,” Eisner said in an interview. “It’s just a riskier business.”

Consider Universal Pictures’ “Cowboys and Aliens,” which had an estimated budget of $163 million but grossed $129 million in global ticket sales since its release July 29. Universal likely spent tens of millions of dollars on advertising, and it only keeps about half the take from theaters. Even if it does well on home video, the film is headed toward a multimilliondollar loss.

Hollywood couldn’t afford to make those bets any longer.

In 2004, American audiences spent $2.04 at home consuming movies for every $1 they spent on theater tickets, according to IHS Screen Digest. But that ratio has been falling consistently for the past five years. Last year, the ratio was $1.37 to $1.

Meanwhile, box office sales in the U.S. and Canada were flat in 2010, as rising prices from 3-D ticket surcharges offset falling attendance. The declining home video market means a big chunk of revenue — more than $7 billion a year globally — has disappeared from the movie economy.

Although theatrical revenue has grown overseas, thanks to booming markets like China, Hollywood is losing share to local producers.

Producers of “The Lone Ranger” and “The Dark Tower” are scrambling to get the movies made after their studios balked.

While neither project is dead, they may be made for less.

Oliver L yttleton, a U.K.based writer for the blog The Playlist for IndieWire, said the inflated budget for “The Lone Ranger” might have been caused by an ambitious early script from 2009, which he read.

It featured wolves, a mysterious creature named a Wendigo, a train crash, a silver mine that features a major battle scene and “loads of explosions.” Not to mention the Western theme with its elaborate sets and costumes.

He speculated that Disney might have to swap out director Gore Verbinski to shave costs. The big-budget director helmed Disney’s first three “Pirates of the Caribbean” movies, but, according to the Los Angeles Times, he clashed with a previous studio head over the budget of the third movie and was dropped from directing the latest “Pirates” flick, which came out this year.

“It’s not inconceivable that Verbinski will throw his hands up and just go, ‘If I can’t make the movie I want to make, I’ll sling my hook,”’ Lyttleton said.

Disney isn’t saying anything specific about how it might cut costs.

The producers of “The Dark Tower” are faced with raising money and finding another studio to distribute the series.

Producer Ron Howard said in a statement sent to The Associated Press, “we are continuing to be actively working on the project.”

Howard and his co-producer Brian Grazer face a tough fight.

Not only did they produce the money-losing “Cowboys & Aliens,” but Hollywood’s love of sequels tends to fade quickly if the first installment fails to perform.
