Duran denies county’s questions for November ballot

BY JEFF TUCKER RECORD STAFF WRITER

New Mexico Secretary of State Dianna Duran has denied a request by the Chaves County Commission to place five non-binding questions on November ballots, although Bernalillo and Santa Fe counties are proceeding with their nonbinding ballot questions after a favorable state Supreme Court ruling last week.

Duran denied Chaves County’s request based on

timeliness and permissibility, saying the Sept. 19 ruling of the state’s high court conflicted with federal and state election laws. Duran also said non-binding ballot questions are not permitted under the state Constitution or state laws.

Conservatives such as Duran have criticized the Supreme Court’s ruling, accusing Ber nalillo and Santa Fe counties of playing politics in an attempt to increase Democratic voter turnout.

Chaves County Commis-

sioner Greg Nibert said he was not terribly surprised with Duran’s denial. Nibert said the issue will likely die due to timing, although he said Chaves County had made its point.

“Never in the history of New Mexico has there been a polling question on a general election ballot,” Nibert said Wednesday. “I can guarantee now that the Supreme Court’s opened this door, it’s going to be a mechanism that may be used by people who are trying to get, not a question

answered, but trying to get certain constituencies to go to the polls. Now we’re going to have things that don’t mean anything, but it’s just to drive people to the polls.”

Duran, a Republican, said in a letter this week to Chaves County Manager Stanton Riggs and County Clerk Dave Kunko, also a Republican, that the request from Chaves County was a good faith, “logical outgrowth of a hurried See BALLOT, Page A7

5,600 lose power in thunderstorm

This picture taken between 6:30 and 7 p.m. Wednesday from the St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church parking lot shows a tail cloud that formed during a thunderstorm that knocked out power to 5,600 customers and dropped golf-ball size hail north of the city.

Xcel Energy reports there were two widespread power outages that af fected around 5,600 customers in different parts of Roswell Wednesday night but roughly during the same timeframe.

There were no reports of outages Thursday morning.

After sunny skies in the daytime, southeastern New Mexico was pummeled Wednesday night with an abrupt thunderstorm as the sun began to set.

The National Weather Service in Albuquerque said there were two inches of rain east of Roswell. The Daily Record calculated slightly more than an inch with its own rain gauge.

In other areas around the city, .43 inches was reported at the Roswell International Air Center, .87 inches was reported west/northwest of the city and golf ball-size hail was

reported north of Roswell along County Road 16.

At 6:40 p.m., Xcel lost a major transmission feeder serving northwest Roswell, interrupting service to 4,686 customers. Service was restored and customers were back online 45 minutes later.

At 6:56 p.m., service was lost to 886 customers in south Roswell near the Roswell International Air Center. Power to those customers was restored at 8:13 p.m.

“The causes were related to line faults, likely caused by wind and/or lightning,” said Wes Reeves, Xcel spokesman for New Mexico and Texas.

“We still had some scattered outages around the area after those two lines were restored, but it appears the system is back to normal this morning,” he said.

Brake failure causes Deputy cabinet secretary visits city library commercial vehicle Trustees discuss upcoming Bond B election to overturn at WIPP STAFF REPORT

A commercial vehicle wreck with injuries occurred Monday at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant, approximately 26 miles near Carlsbad.

The driver, Er nesto Ramos, 39, of El Paso, Texas, was transported to the Carlsbad Medical Center with non-life threatening injuries.

Officers from New Mexico Motor T ransportation Police and New Mexico State Police responded to the scene.

The initial on-scene investigation revealed that the commercial motor vehi-

cle was southbound on the North WIPP Access Road, according to state officials.

As the vehicle approached the South WIPP Access Road, which is a T -shaped intersection, the driver attempted to stop. However, due to inoperable brakes, the vehicle proceeded through the intersection and then overturned.

The commercial motor vehicle was carrying 110 barrels of brine water when it overturned, according to state officials.

Details of the accident are still under investigation at this time.

A state official was in town Thursday visiting the Roswell Public Library and praising the work done by librarians across New Mexico.

“Libraries and the work that librarians do is very under appreciated,” said Michael Delello, deputy cabinet secretary for the state Department of Cultural Affairs. “I was in Artesia this morning, and it does the heart good to see two great facilities in a row like this.”

The Department of Cultural Affairs is over the State Library, and Delello has been visiting libraries

across the state as he fills in for the state librarian — a position that is currently vacant. The department is not only responsible for the state’s 118 public and tribal libraries, but also for 15 museums across the state, Delello said.

Delello stopped by the Roswell Public Library Board of Trustees meeting on Thursday afternoon at the library to meet the trustees and discuss the state of libraries in New Mexico.

“The state library was established as a mechanism for distributing federal funding to the public libraries,” Delello said.

“I think there are a number of challenges faced by libraries, and for many

US: Immigrant families fail to report to agents

WASHINGTON (AP) — Tens of thousands of young families caught crossing the border illegally earlier this year subsequently failed to meet with federal immigration agents, as they were instructed, the Homeland Security Department has acknowledged privately.

An of ficial with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement revealed that about 70 percent of immigrant families the Obama administration had released into the U.S. never showed up weeks later for

follow up appointments.

The ICE official made the disclosure in a confidential meeting at its Washington headquarters with immigration advocates participating in a federal working group on detention and enforcement policies. The Associated Press obtained an audio recording of Wednesday’s meeting and separately interviewed participants.

On the recording obtained by the AP, the government did not specify the total number of families released into the U.S. since

TODAY’S FORECAST

October. Since only a few hundred families have already been returned to their home countries and limited U.S. detention facilities can house only about 1,200 family members, the 70 percent figure suggests the government released roughly 41,000 members of immigrant families who subsequently failed to appear at federal immigration offices.

The official, who was not identified by name on the recording obtained by the AP, also said final deportation had been ordered for

of our rural communities, the library is the only cultural center in town,” Delello said.

Libraries today are not just book repositories; but they are places where people seek information on everything from how to get a job to where to apply for health care insurance.

“In the digital age, the importance of libraries has grown rapidly,” Delello said, “and in a lot of our rural communities, the library might be the only place that a lot of people have access to the Internet.”

The libraries also are offering digital books, music, children’s programs, DVDs and computer access — so much more

than just checking out books. And the bulk of the state’s 2 million residents live outside of the Albuquerque metropolitan area, which serves approximately 800,000 people, Delello said.

“The public library serves as a community center, and they are extremely important all over the state,” Delello said.

The trustees also discussed the Nov. 4 election and the statewide Library General Obligation Bond Issue B which, if approved by voters, will raise $10.8 million for the state’s libraries.

First flu case of season reported in New Mexico SUBMITTED

SANTA FE — The New Mexico Department of Health announced Thursday the first laboratoryconfirmed influenza case of the season in a 94-year-old man from Bernalillo County who was hospitalized.

Last year, the first case of influenza was also reported in mid-September.

“With the first influenza case reported, I want to remind New Mexicans about the importance of getting an influenza vaccine,” said Department of Health Cabinet Secretary Retta Ward. “It’s hard to predict how severe this flu season will be, but the flu vaccination is the best way to protect yourself and loved ones from influenza.”

The Department of Health recommends everyone six months of age and older should get the flu vaccine each flu season, especially people in the following groups because they are at high risk of having serious flu-related complications or because they live with or care for people at high risk for developing flurelated complications: • Children younger than 5, but especially children younger than 2 years old.

• Pregnant women (any trimester).

• People age 65 and older.

• People of any age with medical conditions like asthma, diabetes, lung or heart disease, and those who are immunocompromised.

• People who live in nursing homes and other long-

term care facilities.

• People who live with or care for those at high risk for complications from flu.

• American Indians and Alaskan natives.

• People who are morbidly obese.

• Health care personnel.

People in these groups should also consider seeing their health care provider as early as possible to be evaluated for antiviral medication if they develop flu symptoms because the sooner that these medications are begun, the better the chance of preventing serious complications. People who have the flu may have some or all of the following symptoms: Fever or feeling feverish/chills; cough; sore throat; runny or stuffy nose; muscle or body aches; headaches; fatigue (tiredness); some people may have vomiting and diarrhea, though this is more common in children than adults.

Remember that to avoid catching the flu or passing it on to others, everyone should wash their hands frequently, cover their mouth and nose when sneezing or coughing, and stay home when ill.

To find out about flu clinics vaccination throughout New Mexico, you can call the Immunization Hotline toll free at (866) 681-5872 or check http://flushot. out healthmap.org/ to see where the vaccine is being offered. You can find more information about flu and flu vaccines at the Department of Health website: http://nmhealth.org/about /phd/idb/imp/fluv/.

Job Corps luncheon shows off students’ skills

Mary Morgan Photo

The Roswell Job Corps held a community relations luncheon on its campus Thursday. Job Corps staffers Rhonda Smith and Eric Hollon introduce the culinary students as they state their names and jobs in front of the guests. The students prepared the lunch.

Dropouts clustered in 25 NM schools SANTA FE (AP) — About 11 percent of New Mexico’s high schools accounted for half of the students who dropped out in 2013, according to a legislative audit released Thursday.

The report by the Legislative Finance Committee recommended that the state better target its dropout-prevention efforts, focusing on schools with the worst problems and directing money at programs with a proven track record of success.

Auditors said 4.7 percent of students statewide dropped out in the 2013 budget year, up from 3.6 percent in 2008. Nearly 7,200 out of 152,000 students in grades seven to 12 dropped out in 2013.

Slightly more than two-thirds of dropouts were concentrated in 10 school districts and state-approved charter schools. About 25 of the state’s 230 high schools accounted for 52 percent of the dropouts.

Of those 25 schools, almost half of them are in Albuquerque and include some charter schools. The other schools are in Las Cruces, Roswell, Bernalillo, Hobbs, Deming, Belen, Carlsbad, Espanola, Clovis

and Gallup.

Increasing the number of students who graduate by 2,600 a year would provide a $700 million benefit to taxpayers and the students over their lifetimes, auditors said. Those benefits include higher earnings and a reduction in crime.

Sen. John Arthur Smith, a Deming Democrat and vice chairman of the legislative committee, expressed frustration about a lack of progress during the years at addressing dropouts and other school problems.

“We’re still putting money down a rat hole right here that keeps leaking and leaking and leaking — and yet there’s a cry, ‘Give us more money so we can do more of the same,’ “ Smith said. “I appreciate the innovation that is taking place in some school districts. But I despise the lack of innovation or the willingness to try something different in other school districts.”

The state plans to spend about $2.7 billion on public schools this year, which accounts for the largest share of the state budget.

Auditors made several recommendations, including revamping the formula for distributing state aid to

provide incentives to school districts to increase the number of students who graduate.

Public Education Deputy Secretary Leighann Lenti said the state’s graduation rate has improved, but “there is still work to be done.” About 70 percent of the class of 2013 graduated after four years.

The department is preparing to implement an “early warning system” to provide schools with data about their students at risk of dropping out, Lenti said.

More than half of students drop out as freshmen or sophomores in high school, according to the audit.

“We know that when a student has a pattern of being chronically absent in middle school and failing core courses that’s going to put them at greater risk for dropping out. So it’s prudent to identify those students early and help our districts support them better,” Lenti said.

The largest number of dropouts was at Gordon Ber nell Charter School in Albuquerque. It serves adults who are inmates at the Ber nalillo County Metropolitan Detention Center or have been recently released.

NAVAJO TO GET $554 MILLION IN SETTLEMENT WITH US

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) — The Navajo Nation is poised to receive $554 million from the federal government over allegations of mismanagement of tribal resources in the largest settlement of its kind for an American Indian tribe.

Much of the land on the sprawling reservation has been leased for uses such as farming, grazing, oil and gas development, mining

*30% *35%

Roswell Daily Record

and housing.

The leases once were largely overseen by the U.S. gover nment, which mismanaged the revenue and failed to properly invest and account for it, according to the tribe.

U.S. Interior Secretary Sally Jewell is scheduled to visit Window Rock, Arizona, the Navajo Nation capital, to formalize the deal Friday.

She released a statement Thursday saying the agreement strengthens ties between the Navajo and U.S. gover nments and helps empower the tribe’s communities.

Navajo officials hailed the settlement as a positive end to a long ordeal. President Ben Shelly, in a statement, called it “a victory for tribal sovereignty.”

The tribe agreed to settle

the case months ago but has been awaiting approval from federal agencies before the deal could be finalized. The Navajo Nation originally sought $900 million when the lawsuit was filed in 2006.

The 27,000-square-mile reservation is larger than any American Indian land base, and covers sections of Arizona, New Mexico and Utah.

The AP reported in June that the administration would not say publicly how many immigrant families from Central America caught crossing into the U.S. it had released in recent months or how many of those subsequently reported back to the government after 15 days as directed. The AP noted that senior U.S. officials directly familiar with the issue, including at the Homeland Security Department and White House, had dodged the answer on at least seven occasions over two weeks, alternately saying that they did not know the figure or didn’t have it immediately at hand.

The Homeland Security Department’s public affairs office during the same period did not answer roughly a dozen requests for the figures.

More than 66,000 immigrants traveling as families, mostly mothers and young children, have been apprehended at the border since the start of the budget year in October. Nearly 60,000 of those immigrants are from Honduras, El Salvador and Guatemala and cannot be immediately repatriated, so the government has been releasing them into the U.S. and telling

At the meeting, the ICE official acknowledged the no-show figures while explaining the administration’s decision in June to open a temporary detention center for families in Artesia. A second immigration jail in Texas was later converted for families and can house about 530 people. A third such detention center will open in Texas later this year. Before the new facility in Artesia, the government had room for fewer than 100 people at its only family detention center in Pennsylvania.

The ICE official said it was necessary to detain families to ensure they didn’t vanish into the U.S. He encouraged advocacy groups to help find ways to ensure that immigrants reported to federal agents as ordered so the government could begin processing their cases, including any requests to remain in the U.S. legally.

That’s just the way it seems to work A4 Friday, September 26, 2014

Suddenly, Kansas is the center of the political universe. Sen. Pat Roberts, a three-term Republican, is trailing an independent challenger, Greg Orman, in the polls. A Roberts defeat could jeopardize Republican hopes for gaining a majority in the Senate.

But the race for governor of Kansas, which has gotten far less attention, is actually more interesting. The incumbent, Republican Sam Brownback, has embarked on an ideological — even theological — crusade to slash state taxes. The result has been fiscal calamity.

Kansas is facing huge revenue shortfalls for the second year in a row. Since state law mandates a balanced budget, a healthy rainyday fund has been drained dry to cover the deficits, and two bond rating agencies have downgraded the state’s credit score.

As a result, more than 100 Republican officials staged a revolt this summer and endorsed Brownback’s opponent, Democrat Paul Davis, currently the minority leader of the state legislature.

One GOP rebel, banker and former state senator Wint Winter,

explained his defection to The New York Times: “I think Sam’s experiment, as he’s called it, is backfiring on us. It’s gone way too far. We’re all very alarmed by the damage to our public schools, very alarmed by the damage to the state’s financial responsibility and very alarmed about the credit downgrade that Wall Street is paying attention to.”

Kansas is a deeply red state — Mitt Romney beat Barack Obama there by 22 points — yet the latest polls show Davis with a narrow lead. He might not win, but the larger story of Brownback’s tenure is highly instructive.

The governor is really testing the idea that a rigid, hard-right philosophy — which dominates Republican thinking back in Washington — can actually be applied to gov-

Roswell Daily Record

erning a state.

So far the answer is clearly “no.”

Even conservative Republicans from other Midwestern states are echoing the view that Kansas has “gone way too far.” Oklahoma’s state treasurer, Ken Miller, told the Wall Street Journal: “Sometimes ideological experiments bring unintended outcomes. I think Kansas is seeing that, and it serves as a reminder for the rest of us.”

There have always been at least two distinct forms of conservatism.

One of them, centered in the South and heavily shaped by religious values, takes a normative view of politics. It might be called “evangelical” conservatism and treats the world as it should be, not the way it actually is.

The other tradition, rooted in the West, takes a far more pragmatic approach. Think of it as “frontier” conservatism, which flows from the life experience of pioneers and settlers, farmers and ranchers, miners and loggers. Yes, it embraces deeply conservative values, but it applies those values in a practical way. Ideology never drove a herd of cows or harvested a field of wheat.

And Kansas, for all of its Republican redness, is more of a frontier than an evangelical state.

When we covered Capitol Hill in the 1980s, the two Kansas senators, Bob Dole and Nancy Landon Kassebaum, were models of frontier pragmatism. Dole worked with Democrats on issues like disability rights, and Kassebaum partnered with Ted Kennedy on health insurance reform. Both would be “very alarmed” at Brownback’s brand of bombast.

“While the political power currently resides with the far right,” The New York Times reported recently, “this home state of Bob Dole and Dwight D. Eisenhower has a history of being governed from the center. It has elected five Democratic governors over the past 50 years and many of the Republicans who ran the state called themselves moderates.”

Brownback has defied that history, but his problem is not just an ideological one. He spent 15 years in the House and Senate and developed a lot of bad habits. Legislators make speeches, and are seldom held accountable for their policies.

Governors make decisions, and the results of their actions are unavoidable.

Like many other Republicans on Capitol Hill, Brownback preached the gospel that slashing taxes would actually increase government revenues. When the exact opposite happened, he blamed Washington for the deficits, but even fellow Republicans are not buying his attempt to escape responsibility.

“I mean, you can’t basically destroy the income tax base and then blame some spurious thing from the federal government,” Ed Rolfs, a former revenue secretary for a GOP governor, told the Wichita Eagle. “When you cut taxes, you lose revenue. I’m sorry, that’s just the way it works.”

Yes, it is. But the state of Kansas is now suffering from their governor’s refusal to recognize that reality.

Misassigning blame for weak tax revenue

A r ep or t t h i s w e e k b y S t an d a r d & Poor’s Ratings Services reads like it could have been written by President Obama’s White House Council of Economic Advisors. It declares that “increasing income inequality is under mining the rate of state tax revenue growth.”

It found that California tax revenue grew at an annual rate of 10.9 percent from 1950-79; 9.7 percent from 1980-89; 5.8 percent from 1990-99; and 3.39 percent from 2000-09. That steady decline has reversed itself; since 2009, tax revenue has grown at an annual average rate of 7.16 percent.

He r e ’ s w h er e t h e au t h or s of S & P ’ s report lost us: They attribute the decline in tax revenue growth from 1950-2009 to increasing income inequality.

And the authors attribute the revenue rebound since 2009 to government measures taken, supposedly, to narrow the gap between rich and poor — like Proposition 30, which hiked income tax rates from 10.3 percent to 12.3 percent on households earning at least $250,000, with another 1 percent on million-dollar earners.

But there’s another way of looking at the growth fluctuations in state tax revenue. It’s no coincidence that the steady decline from 1950-2009 in tax revenue growth coincided with the steady increase in California’s tax burden to one of the nation’s heaviest.

As to the improvement (if it can be termed as such) in state tax revenues since 2009, we think that bump is more at t r i b ut ab le t o t h e en d o f t h e G r e at Recession, as well as the recovery of the state’s housing market from one its worst downturns, than to Prop. 30’s tax hikes.

Our biggest problem with S&P’s report is its insinuation that states like California have found it daunting to balance their budgets because of the negative impact income inequality has had on their tax revenues.

The biggest problem with S&P’s report is that it employs static analysis in suggesting that income inequality weighs negatively on state tax revenues, making it hard for California and other states to balance their budgets.

Well, in those years when California had problems balancing its books and faced sometimes huge budget deficits, the cause wasn’t that Californians were paying too little in taxes, but that the state government was spending too much.

Indeed, the Legislative Analyst’s Office in August foresaw a 4.8 percent growth in state tax revenues for the 2014-15 fiscal ye a r. H ow eve r, s t a te s p en d i n g w i ll increase 7.2 percent, producing an operat i ng d efi ci t o f n e a r l y $ 9 00 m i l l i o n , according to the LAO. If we accepted at face value the conclusions of the S&P report, we would be misled to believe that the state government h a s a r ev en ue p r o b l em , t h a t i n c o me inequality is the root cause, and that even higher taxes on the affluent is the remedy.

But we know that to be untrue. For, no matter how much tax revenue California raises, Sacramento finds a way to spend it. And when it does, all too often it keeps spending, producing the operating deficit to which the LAO referred.

So what Califor nia needs is not the income redistribution S&P tacitly endorses. It simply needs the state government to exercise fiscal disciple; to spend no more each year than it brings in.

Even libs say no to Hillary in 2016

Last week, Hillary Clinton returned to Iowa for the first time since her 2008 presidential campaign loss, saying, “I’m back.” She continued: “It’s true. I’ve been thinking about it,” referring to another run in 2016. But the truth is that even many of her esteemed liberal cronies think it’s a bad idea.

I know that billionaire buddies such as Wal-Mart heiress Alice Walton, philanthropist Jon Stryker and progressive globalist George Soros were among 32 other wealthy elites who helped the former first lady raise over $4 million last year for the “Ready for Hillary” super PAC. However, outside of her super-rich comrades — who have clear self-invested interests in resurrecting and ensuring a Clinton dynasty — hosts of other liberals are petrified of the prospect of her becoming president.

CHUCK NORRIS

SYNDICATED COLUMNIST

Most expect us conservatives to oppose the 2016 presidential campaign of Hillary Clinton, but listen to the liberals themselves.

They’ve already done our bidding.

Let me give you 10 — among many other — liberal cases against Clinton, in their own words, including one from Clinton herself.

10) “It’s possible, even likely, that by 2016 the electorate will be restive, and ready for more change than a pillar of the Obama administration could provide. ... Progressives might think it’s

time to run a national campaign from the left, particularly on issues of national security. And it might indeed be time for a challenge to the bipartisan national security consensus that’s hardened since 9/11, as exemplified by the centrist-liberal crowd that feted Clinton at the Saban forum. It would be hard for that campaign to be Hillary Clinton’s. ... I do think people have valid reservations about the nepotism and inbreeding of our political elite. ... Like it or not, Clinton is inextricably tied to Obama’s presidency. If he stumbles ... her candidacy will be wounded if not doomed.” — Joan Walsh, former editor -in-chief of Salon.com and presently an MSNBC and CNN political analyst, writing for Salon.com 9) “You can’t be the candidate that shakes down more money on Wall Street than anybody since, I don’t know,

Woodrow Wilson, and be the populist. You can’t be the one to say we’re going to focus on rebuilding America if you voted to go to the Iraq War. There were 30-some Democrats who voted against that. ... Are we going to choose more leadership that is going to roll over and get scratched on the belly by corporations like a fat dog?” — Brian Schweitzer, former Democratic gover nor of Montana (2005-13), to Time magazine 8) “(Clinton) cannot simply ignore the controversies and wage an energetic defense, a full embrace of America’s international record at a time when (Barack) Obama is scoring the lowest poll numbers of his presidency on that issue. Obama’s foreign policy looks like a key vulnerability for Democrats in the next presidential election. ... Clin-

Blurred vision is the most common symptom of astigmatism. Some people describe it as double vision but in only one eye. You may develop eyestrain, squinting and headaches from working to focus on near or distant objects.

Many people have some degree of astigmatism; in fact, it is rare to find a perfectly formed eye. Though people are born with astigmatism, it is often not noticed until a child attends school or learns to read. Astigmatism tends to remain stable, but it may slowly worsen over time. An eye doctor can diagnose astigmatism using a standard eye examination.

Glasses are a good, reliable

choice for correcting astigmatism. Patients who prefer contact lenses may be limited to hard contact lenses. Soft lenses are sometimes an option, but they aren’t as effective for severe astigmatism.

Another option is corrective surgery. The most common type used to correct astigmatism is LASIK (laser-assisted in situ keratomileusis).

In LASIK, the doctor makes a small incision on the surface of the eye to create a small flap of tissue, which is lifted up. Then the doctor uses a cool laser beam to correct the irregular shape of the cornea. Recovery is usually quick and painless.

When LASIK surgery was introduced, I took a wait-and-

See NORRIS, Page A5

A good pair of glasses will correct most cases of astigmatism

DEAR DOCTOR K: At my last visit, my eye doctor told me I have astigmatism. He told me what that means, but I still don’t really understand what it is. Please explain it to me.

DEAR READER: Astigmatism means that the eye’s cornea has an irregular shape, which causes vision problems.

Astigmatism is very common; I am among the several billion people who have it. Fortunately, it’s easy to correct.

Let’s start with a little eye anatomy. The cornea is the clear, dome-like window at the front of the eye. Rays of light pass through the cornea and then through the lens, which focuses images onto the retina.

The retina captures the images, then sends them to the

ASK DR. K UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

brain via the optic nerve. (I’ve put an illustration of eye anatomy on my website, AskDoctorK.com.)

The cornea is normally round. In people with astigmatism, the cornea may be shaped like a football or oval.

This causes light to scatter instead of focus on a single point as it passes through the cornea.

And to the extent that she did play a role in Obama’s foreign policy, she cannot completely disassociate herself from his failures.” — world affairs columnist Frida Ghitis, writing for CNN 7) “The first real handhold that the president had in climbing out of single digits in the Democratic primaries in 2008 is that he had condemned the Iraq War and Hillary Clinton had voted for it. It was the first real dif ference between the president, and most of the rest of the field. For me, I could be wrong, but I still think a vote for that war still should be a dealbreaker in Democratic primaries.

But I was concerned about the possibility that over the longer term the surgery would become less effective, or there would be adverse effects. Today, after nearly 30 years of its use, I’m much more confident in recommending this procedure to my patients.

It’s the unusual person, though, who needs surgery to correct astigmatism. Glasses have always worked for me, as

G ot h am . S h e c om es across a small family of a married couple and their pre-teen son, as you can guess Bruce Wayne with his parents.

The standard aggravated robbery with murder story is told and we are flashed to a scene at the local jail involving a young detective, James Gordon, (Ben McKenzie) and his partner, Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue).

These two have a very unique partner dynamic as James Gordon is set in h is m or al, e th ica l an d judicial ways.

This is now a national, central issue, and anyone running for president needs to come up with a formula, or in my opinion, they forfeit their right to be taken seriously. ... I’m amazed that we are not hearing from leading candidates — Chris Christie or Jeb Bush or Hillary Clinton.”

— Al Sharpton, civil rights activist 5) “Many liberal and progressive activists don’t trust Clinton because they think she sides with big banks and big money instead of the middle class and they’re wary of her on national security. ... Possibly the biggest concern among liberals is Clinton’s coziness with Wall Street, their big bogeyman. Since leaving the State Department in 2013, she has spoken at events sponsored by Wall Street giants like Fidelity,

Goldman Sachs and Ameriprise Financial, and during her Senate runs and 2008 presidential run, Clinton defended lobbyists.” — “Why many liberals don’t trust Hillary Clinton,” by Dan Merica for CNN 4) “I don’t think she has been aggressive on the banks. When I think of Hillary Clinton, I actually think she is in bed with some of the banks and Wall Street is her ally.” — Nelini Stamp, a progressive political organizer from New York 3) “If there was an actual, authentic ‘I am going to listen to you about your issues’ from Clinton, instead of kind of pounding the drum of inevitability and stampeding over the left on her way to assumed victory, that would be effective. ... You wonder if it is a pivot or whether she is saying what the moment demands.” — Sally Kohn, a progressive activist and CNN contributor 2) “(Clinton) basically seems to be taking positions that are very similar to the vision of America’s

I think eyeglasses are one of the most important medical discoveries — right up there with antibiotics, X-rays and vaccines. So many children and young adults begin to lose clear vision due to myopia, astigmatism and other common eye problems. Without eyeglasses, society would be much less happy and productive.

GameStop said that it is looking to hire warehouse workers for distribution centers in Grapevine, Texas and Louisville, Kentucky; sales associates for its stores and about 250 consumer electronic technicians for its refurbishment operation center. It did not disclose exactly how many sales associates or warehouse workers it plans to hire.

The Grapevine, Texas, company said that it will of fer part-time, flexible work schedules with the possibility of up to 10 to 15 hours of work weeknights, weekends and during the day. Seasonal workers will receive a 15 percent discount on certain merchandise in stores and online.

Dear editor, Much has been written lately about recent events in Gaza and in Israel. No intelligent, sensitive person wants to see anyone suf fer and needlessly killed, especially children.

Why is the Arab hatred of the Jews so relentless?

They had to be carefully taught.

Barbara Tuchman, in her essay published in The Saturday Evening Post of Jan. 14, 1967, wrote that “The depth of Arab bitterness stems, one suspects, from humiliation. Much of the land they lost in Palestine had been sold as worthless to the early Zionist settlers who, draining the swamps in spite of malaria and building on sand dunes, made it livable. The Jews became in the process a reminder of Arab failings. Then in 1948 an astonished world watched as the assembled military forces of five sovereign Arab States were fought off by the Jewish colonists of Palestine, who declared themselves a state, held their ground, and put an end to infiltration and border raids. ...

The Arabs were left, like a woman scor ned, with a fury matching Hell’s ...”

An editorial in the Jerusalem Post of September 2003 entitled “The Sign of Lunacy” quoted Dr. Abdel–Aziz Rantisi of

LETTER POLICY

LOCAL Hamas who was interviewed in Haaretz the week before saying that “the struggle against the Jews would go on, if need be, for another 500 years.”

Here’s the editor’s reaction to Rantisi’s statement: “Imagine that! What sane person would wish to subject his people to another 500 years of abject poverty, social disruption, martyred, suicidal children and a permanent feeling of alienation, rejection, inferiority and hatred? That kind of thinking is a sign of lunacy.”

There is no easy solution to today’s crisis in the Arab-Israeli conflict. Both sides are culpable in one way or another. But one must realize that with few exceptions, the Jewish people had dwelt in relative security among the Arabs over the centuries.

The crimes perpetrated on the Jewish people had been inflicted on them by the so-called Christian nations, not those of Islam.

So what happened?

Historian Paul Johnson explains that “In 1921, Britain authorized a Supreme Muslim Counsel to direct religious affairs and it appointed Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, head of the landowning clan in Palestine, to be senior judge or Grand Mufti of Jerusalem

for life. It was one of the most fatal appointments in modern history. He was a dedicated killer who devoted his entire adult life to race-murder. It was said that he outrivaled Hitler in his hatred of Jews. He spent World War II in Berlin as a guest of Himmler. There’s a picture with Himmler and him signed

by Himmler in 1943 “to His Eminence, the Grossmufti.”

Husseini organized the systematic destruction of moderate Arabs. In the 1920s there were a great many of them. Many of the moderates even welcomed the Jewish settlers with modern agricultural ideas and sold land to them.

The Grand Mufti had the leading moderates assassinated. By the end of the 1930s moderate Arab opinion ceased to exist (at least in public).”

If you prefer movies to reading and research, watch the movie Exodus with Paul Newman to see what happened to any Arab who befriended a Jew. Even though the Balfour Declaration motivated the quest for a Jewish State, the Arabs had oil and Israel didn’t. The Arabs persuaded the British foreign Office that continued access to oil was in jeopardy if Jewish immigration continued. In 1939, the White Papers

Roswell Daily Record

brought Jewish immigration to a halt. In effect it repudiated the Balfour Declaration. There are good sources that suggest that if Roosevelt hadn’t died in April 1945, the Jews would never have gotten their State. Evidence is very strong that Roosevelt and his State Department were strongly anti-Semitic. And if it hadn’t been for the Holocaust and the destruction of 6 million Jews, the state may not have become a reality because most Jews were not Zionists, but assimilationists who wanted to become good citizens of whatever country they happened to be in. The Holocaust pushed them over the edge into Zionism.

There’s so much more to this situation; volumes have been written about this conflict. It’s easy to take sides on an emotional level, especially where children are killed.

One thing is clear: As Barbara Tuchman wrote in her book, The March of Folly, “all gover nments pursue policies which act against their own best interests.” She also makes the point that “mankind, it seems, makes a poorer per for mance of gover nment than of almost any other human activity.”

History is replete with incompetence masquerad-

ing as government. Consequently, the leaders change but the people as a whole continue to suffer.

Adam Urioste Roswell

Dear Editor, Once more Mark Shields, one of my favorite non-conservative, flaming liberal writers/commentators, has found a way to skew a bit of history to fit his ideological concept of wealth distribution.

In his column in the Sept. 24 issue of the Roswell Daily Record, Shields quotes a statement attributed to Abraham Lincoln. He then proceeds to imply the wide disparity of wealth between the “upper” 3 percent and the bottom 90 percent is somehow the fault of dirty capitalists.

No mention of what’s going on with the remaining 7 percent. How much guilt should they bear according to Shields?

Shields also quotes a statement from FDR’s second inaugural address wherein Roosevelt claims what a test of progress should be. The statement appears to indicate a need for wealth sharing.

But FDR also said in 1935 that welfare is “a narcotic, a subtle destroyer of the human spirit.”

Shields doesn’t mention

this.

Apparently, he seems to have forgotten or conveniently ignored LBJ’s “Great Society” and the “War on Poverty” which were supposed to bring everyone out of poverty.

Well, we’ve learned recently that our gover nment has spent about 20 trillion dollars over the last 50 years and the poverty rate has hardly budged. What we have now is a secondor third-generation welfare society which is almost totally dependent on the US government for existence.

Shield concludes his article with, “Is it not time we answered their (Lincoln and Roosevelt) summons and met their challenge to build a more human and humane American economy?” Can anyone tell me what that means? More governmental handouts?

I believe that Lincoln’s quote can be interpreted as meaning “one must work for his money.” I cannot believe that Mr. Lincoln intended for Americans to sit on their derrières and bleed the government, i.e., the U.S. taxpayers, dry.

Oh, by the way, does anyone know how closely akin Mark Shields is to his malevolent 3 percent?

decision by the Supreme Court last week.”

“Based on the legal analysis I have reviewed, there can be little doubt that the argumentation and logic used by Chaves County and contained in its resolution is sound in that it is grounded fir mly in a careful reading of the court decision,” Duran wrote Chaves County leaders.

However, Duran said after a thorough review by her legal counsel, she was constitutionally and by statute bound to deny Chaves County’s request.

She said the Sept. 19 ruling of the state Supreme Court conflicted with both state and federal election laws.

“Until such time as either the Legislature or the Supreme Court acts to resolve the conflict created by the Supreme Court’s decision, I am duty-bound to uphold federal and state law,” Duran wrote.

Ballot uprising The issue of non-binding ballot questions arose recently when elected leaders of both Bernalillo and Santa Fe counties asked Duran’s office to approve ballot questions regarding the decriminalization of small amounts of marijuana. Bernalillo County also requested a non-binding question on whether to impose a new tax levy to pay for mental health services.

Duran’s lawyer, Rob Doughty, contended that the state constitution and statutes don’t specifically authorize non-binding ballot measures.

Doughty said there has never been an advisory ballot question in a statewide election in New Mexico.

Duran’s office denied the requests from Bernalillo and Santa Fe counties, but the counties challenged Duran’s decision in court.

The state Supreme Court on Sept. 19 ruled in favor of the counties and ordered Duran to include the Ber nalillo and Santa Fe non-binding ballot questions on their general election ballots.

Duran said she was obligated to comply with the Supreme Court’s decision regarding Bernalillo and Santa Fe counties. But Duran said without a court order regarding Chaves County, she was obligated to deny its request for nonbinding ballot questions.

“Faced with an irreconcilable conflict between statutory mandates and a deci-

sion made by a court that ignores or violates those mandates, a constitutional officer is duty-bound to follow the law and adhere to the statute,” Duran wrote.

“That officer has no choice in the matter. His or her duty is to the people and their written laws.”

Duran said the Supreme Court based its decision on an antiquated New Mexico law passed in 1977, Section 1-16-8 of New Mexico’s statutes, which states “The form for ballots on those questions not statewide in application to be submitted to the voters of the county shall be furnished by the county clerk, and a copy of the resolution proposing such questions shall be sent by the county clerk to the secretary of state no less than 30 days prior to the election.”

“In this instance, the proposed advisory questions (of Chaves County) meet neither the substantive criteria established by the Legislature nor the timeframe for submission established by both federal and state law,” Duran wrote Chaves County leaders.

Counter balance It was the first time Chaves County leaders proposed non-binding ballot questions.

The Chaves County commissioners on Monday voted unanimously to seek placing five non-binding ballot questions on November general election ballots.

The resolution approved by the commissioners states the proposed non-binding ballot questions were proposed “in the event the New Mexico Supreme Court allows Bernalillo and Santa Fe counties to include advisory non-binding questions.”

The proposed ballot questions were about a proposed union-related right-to-work ordinance, a proposed voter ID ordinance, a concealed weapons proposed ordinance, amending the vermin ordinance to include the prohibition of wolves within Chaves County, and a proposed ordinance that would eliminate the county’s need to pay a local prevailing wage on all county projects.

Nibert said it was his initiative to propose the nonbinding ballot questions.

He said if leaders of politically liberal counties can include advisory questions on election ballots, leaders of conservative counties

should be able to do the same.

“What we wanted to do is show the Supreme Court that it’s a two-edge sword,” Nibert said. “We just wanted to make the Supreme Court aware it will cut both ways. It can be used by all sides to screw around with the election, and that’s wrong.”

Duran said Chaves County’s request meets the requirement of Section 116-8 to submit ballot questions to the Secretary of State at least 30 days before an election, but she said the Supreme Court ruling contradicts both state and federal election laws.

Duran noted a federal law requires military members serving overseas be sent ballots 45 days in advance of an election. She said state laws require proconstitutional posed amendments and ballot questions be printed on ballots at least 45 days before an election.

“Repeatedly therefore, state and federal law makes it abundantly clear that the actual deadline for ballot preparation and mailing to (uniformed and overseas citizens voting absentee) voters is 45 days prior to an election,” Duran wrote.

Duran said it currently takes up to 11 days to turn resolutions into actual ballots, therefore a 56-day window is needed.

“Following the Supreme Court’s legal reasoning, we could be faced with preparing ballots as late as 19 days before an election, which this year would be Oct. 15,” Duran wrote. ”With absentee voting for all voters beginning on Oct. 7, this is not manageable and illustrates the absurd position New Mexico is placed in as a result of the court’s reliance on Section 1-16-8 as the sole basis for opening up the ballot to unlimited polling questions, ballot congestion, voter fatigue and misunderstanding on the part of voters.”

Rushed decision Duran said the Supreme Court rushed into a decision, resulting in confusion for the state’s counties.

“In the final analysis, unfortunately Bernalillo and Santa Fe county attorneys pressed an obsolete statute into service,” Duran wrote. “It is important to note that Chaves County cannot be blamed for

attempting to do for its voters what other counties have successfully done.

Chaves County, following the court’s logic and therefore the provisions of that statute the court used, is doing nothing more than attempting to join the other counties on board what might be called ‘the Section 1-16-8 train.’

“The Supreme Court, inexplicably, followed this reasoning, but as a constitutional officer sworn to uphold both the U.S. Constitution and its laws, and the New Mexico Constitution and its laws, I cannot.”

Duran said the actual deadline for submission of ballot questions was not 30 days as the Supreme Court ruled, but 56 days in advance of the election, or Sept. 9, not the Supreme Court’s deadline of Oct. 4.

Chaves County submitted its ballot question request to the SOS Tuesday, well after the Sept. 9 deadline.

“Therefore, in order to follow the true time constraints contained in both state and federal law, I cannot allow your questions to go on the ballot based on timeliness,” Duran wrote.

No challenge Nibert, a Roswell attorney, said it is unlikely the Chaves County commissioners, all Republican, will challenge Duran’s decision in court.

“Sept. 9 was the last day to get things to the Secretary of State for inclusion on the ballot,” he said.

“Because our resolution didn’t occur until Monday, it’s kind of late. So I suspect it’s going to die its natural death.”

Asked if he thought it was fair, Nibert said politics were in play.

“I don’t know whether it’s unfair or not, but that’s politics,” he said. “It shouldn’t be the judicial system. I don’t think Secretary Duran was being unfair. I think she was trying to comply with the Supreme Court decree and recognize that ballots are already going out to the military, and changing the ballots in Chaves County now poses some real practical hardships that the Supreme Court failed to address. They cited that 30-day statute when they really should have been looking at the 56-day statute that’s in the books.

“I’d really be mad if Santa Fe and Albuquerque had not passed resolutions and submitted them prior

Friday, September 26, 2014

to the 9th of September and they got their issues on the ballot, but we didn’t get our issues on the ballot, I would be upset at that. My understanding is that Santa Fe and Albuquerque had both sent stuff up by Sept. 9, and when the Secretary of State refused to put them on the ballot, they both sued. We were not really in the same boat.”

Impermissibility Duran also rejected Chaves County’s ballot question request based on permissibility.

She said the Supreme Court’s ruling was so narrow it left no road map for the Secretary of State or Chaves County regarding the permissibility of nonbinding ballot questions.

“The dilemma for the county and for the SOS is that the sole basis for the (Supreme) Court’s order is a statute that cannot be operative, otherwise the same statute ends up violating federal law as well as the voting rights of service members,” Duran wrote.

“While some members of the (Supreme) Court made passing comments which seemed to try to imply that they were not necessarily ruling on the legality of the advisory questions, no statement of that kind appears in the order.”

Duran said based on the Supreme Court’s order and a lack of actual written opinion from the judges on the law, one could conclude the high court believes Chaves County has the discretion to submit advisory questions at least 30 days before an election.

However, Duran said her legal counsel advised her not to rely on the logic of the Supreme Court’s Sept.

19 ruling.

“If I were to do so and thereby accept Chaves County’s resolution, this office, and the state of New Mexico, would fall afoul of federal law, specifically the (Uniformed and Overseas Citizen Absentee Voting Act of 1986), as well as other state statutes,” Duran wrote.

Two wrongs, no right Duran said while some may call for uniformity in the election code and conclude that Chaves County also has the discretion to add non-binding ballot questions, she did not believe that “two wrongs would make a right.”

“Based on the foregoing, and in absence of any clear and binding legal ruling to

A7

the contrary, I am advised by counsel that it remains my statutory duty and constitutional obligation, never addressed or denied by any court, to conclude that advisory ‘poll’ questions not carrying the force of law, as is required in all provisions of New Mexico law, and that do not conform to the types of questions authorized by the Legislature, are not to be included on a general election ballot,” Duran wrote.

Nibert also was critical of the Supreme Court’s decision to allow non-binding ballot questions.

“I thought the Supreme Court ruling was not wellwritten and was not well thought-out,” Nibert said.

“Frankly, I didn’t think that the statute was unclear. I think matters that go on the ballot should be action items. When people vote, there ought to be some action. Allowing polling questions is nothing but an effort to engage in politics, and that’s why the Chaves County Commission wanted to bring that issue before the court.”

Nibert also said state lawmakers need to clarify the issue of non-binding ballot questions.

“I think the New Mexico Legislature needs to clarify it to make sure that ballots actually mean something, that you don’t use it as a forum to poll constituencies, because that can be used for political purposes that I don’t think are conducive to fair elections,” he said.

Nibert said the Supreme Court forced the hand of Duran with regard to Ber nalillo and Santa Fe counties.

“I certainly understand the awkward position she’s in and the problems that arise by virtue of the Supreme Court decision,” he said.

Eli, Giants torch Washington 45-14

Friday, September 26, 2014 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

LANDOVER, Md. (AP) — Larry Donnell kicked his right leg high as he fell to the turf in the east end zone, then did the same with his left leg at the west end. Touchdown catches that mirrored each other.

And he still wasn’t done for the New York Giants.

The tight end has become Eli Manning’s top receiver, the perfect target in the team’s new dinkand-dunk of fense. The second-year player who went undrafted out of Grambling State caught three scoring passes in the first half — similar twistthe-body grabs in the end zone of 5, 6 and 6 yards — in a 45-14 victory over the turnover-prone Washington Redskins on Thursday night.

After struggling in his first two games running new offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo’s West Coast playbook, Manning has led the Giants (2-2) to consecutive victories. Manning is

Section

Roswell Daily Record

supposed to complete 70 percent of his passes in this offense, and he surpassed that mark against the Redskins, going 28 for 39 — including three simple open-field drops — for 300 yards with four touchdowns and one interception.

Manning also ran for a 1-yard score, as did Andre Williams.

Donnell finished with seven catches for 54 yards. He had only one career touchdown catch entering the game, but he now leads the Giants this season in TD catches (4) and overall receptions (25). Daniel Fells had a 2yard scoring catch in the third quarter, which means tight ends have snagged seven of Manning’s nine TD passes this season.

5 teams passed on ‘young colt’ Jeter before Yanks See GIANTS, Page B2

New York Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter pauses as he walks around the field to acknowledge applause from the crowd after driving in the winning run against the Baltimore Orioles in the ninth inning of a baseball game, Thursday in New York. The game, which the Yankees won 6-5, was Jeter's last home game of his career.

NEW YORK (AP) — The 17-year-old kid from Kalamazoo drew all sorts of raves.

He was a “young colt” with a “perfect SS body” and was a “top student” who planned to study medicine at the University of Michigan, too.

“This guy is special,” one big league scout even wrote.

But, could anyone back then have projected that Derek Jeter the high schooler would someday become Derek Jeter the future Hall of Famer?

Now 40, Jeter is set to retire after this weekend. A five-time World Series champion and sixth on the career hits list, he spent two decades as the shortstop for the New York Yankees.

Five big league teams bypassed Jeter in baseball’s amateur draft in 1992 before New York selected him with the No. 6 pick. A year earlier, Yankees scout Dick Grouch had first spotted Jeter after his junior year.

“It was one of those serendipitous events,” Grouch recalled last week.

“I was going to cover a tournament on the other side of the state, and I knew they were having this talent identification camp at Mount Morris High School, so I stopped just to get a glance as to what was transpiring.”

This time, there was indeed something worth seeing.

“About 5 or 10 minutes in, he was taking ground-

balls at the time, and then he did things that caught my eye,” Grouch said.

With the short high school season, Jeter didn’t play many games during the school year, so Grouch watched him with the Kalamazoo Maroons summer league team. And then Jeter injured an ankle early in his senior season, limiting his playing time.

But Jeter already had caught the attention of scouts for many teams, according to reports that later went to baseball’s Hall of Fame.

Cincinnati scout Gene Bennett wrote in April 1992 that Jeter aimed to study medicine at Michigan, adding he “has leadership

Saints visit Cowboys looking for yet another win ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Jason Witten and the Dallas Cowboys can tell better than just about anyone the dif ference between the New Orleans Saints with and without coach Sean Payton.

The Saints hung on for a 34-31 overtime win in Texas two years ago on the same day they were eliminated from playoff contention in a lost season without their suspended coach.

Last year they became the first team in NFL history to get 40 first downs in a 49-17 blowout that was easily the worst for the Cowboys since coach Jason Garrett took over midway through the 2010 season.

“I think anytime you’re

humbled like that, there’s a respect factor you have,” Witten said of a game that propelled the Saints back to the postseason with Payton in charge while Dallas missed for the fourth straight year.

“It was good for our team to watch that tape and to see it, see what they did to us. I’m sure they watched that tape as well.”

Payton will be on the sideline at the $1.2 billion home of the Cowboys on Sunday night after watching from his Dallas-area home in 2012 because of his season-long ban over the bounty scandal. He was on Bill Parcells’ staff in Dallas when he got the chance to coach the

Saints.

“I’ve got a lot of close friends back there with that organization,” Payton said. “There’s a uniqueness about that program.

It’s special. Just having those opportunities, and ... when the schedule comes out and you see that it’s a Sunday night game, that’s exciting.”

Drew Brees can share in the excitement because he’s thrown for 838 yards with seven touchdowns and no interceptions in his past two games against the Cowboys.

1920 — A Chicago grand jury indicts eight members of the Chicago White Sox on charges of fixing the 1919 World Series, known as the “Black Sox Scandal.” White Sox owner Charles Comiskey immediately suspends the eight players.

1940 — Bud Brennan, a spectator at Memorial Stadium, races out of the stands and attempts to tackle Michigan’s Tom Harmon at the 3-yard line. Harmon easily evades Brennan and completes an 86-yard touchdown run, his third return for a touchdown, in a 41-0 rout of California.

1951 — Norm Van Brocklin of Los Angeles throws for an NFL-record 554 yards and five touchdowns to lead the Rams to a 54-14 rout of the New York Yankees. Elroy Hirsch catches four of the touchdown passes and finishes with 173 yards receiving and teammate Tom Fears has 162 yards receiving.

— 1964 Australia beats the Unites States 3-2 to win the Davis Cup, the first time it’s played on clay courts.

1968 — The Atlanta Chiefs beat the San Diego Toros 3-0 to win the first NASL championship.

1969 — Minnesota’s Joe Kapp throws for 449 yards and seven touchdown passes to tie an NFL record and give the Minnesota Vikings a 52-14 victory over the Baltimore Colts.

Cousins, who has the starting job while Robert Griffin III recovers from a dislocated ankle, finished 19 for 33 for 257 yards with four interceptions and a fumble for the first-year coach Jay Gruden’s Redskins (1-3), who dropped into the cellar in the NFC East, already 2 1/2 games behind the unbeaten Philadelphia Eagles.

Cousins threw three interceptions in a span of five attempts in the second half.

Donnell beat a trio of defenders for his hat trick of touchdowns: linebacker Perry Riley, safety Brandon Meriweather and rookie cornerback Baushad Breeland. Breeland was starting for three-time Pro Bowl defensive back DeAngelo Hall, who ruptured his

native showed that last weekend at Florida International with interceptions on consecutive plays, the first of which was a 32yard pickoff return for a touchdown that jumpstarted Louisville (3-1, 0-1) to 21 unanswered points in its 34-3 rout.

The low-key Holliman wasn’t available for interviews this week but recently credited Smith and Pryor for teaching him the finer points of coverage and tackling.

“Really, it’s just been about communicating with my DBs, learning where each corner and safety is, watching film and learning what the offense likes to do,” Holliman said of his play. “We’re playing aggressive because we have guys backing each other up.”

Holliman in tur n has passed his knowledge on to other Cardinals defenders such as Sample, a jun-

ior transfer who signed with Louisville late this spring. He debuted with eight tackles and an INT against Miami, one of two

by Louisville in a game in which Holliman returned a pickoff 61 yards.

“The more he does things and sees things, he’s pretty quick to pick up on it and he’s really been able to play fast with what we’ve asked him to do,” Cardinals defensive coordinator Todd Grantham said of Holliman. “We’ve really been pleased with his progress; we just got to continue to work to put him in position that he can make those kinds of plays.”

Floyd believes that the way Louisville’s secondary is playing right now, everyone is capable of making game-changing plays. As it is, defensive backs comprise five of the top 10 tacklers on a unit that’s allowing 178.2

Louisville has 7 interceptions through 4 games LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Louisville defensive backs say replacing all-conference safeties Hakeem Smith and Calvin Pryor hasn’t been easy.

But interceptions by safeties Gerod Holliman and James Sample and Charles cor nerback Gaines has helped the Cardinals make the transition.

Louisville’s secondary began the season looking to fill huge voids but enters Saturday’s Atlantic Coast Conference game against Wake Forest (2-2, 0-0) tied for fifth nationally with Central Michigan and Minnesota with seven interceptions. That’s nearly halfway to last season’s total (16), with Holliman leading the country with five interceptions.

The Cardinals also have 11 sacks and have forced a succession of young quarterbacks into mistakes in their new 3-4

when they were 13-0 and went on to win the Super Bowl in 2009. That win was the only one for Dallas in the past nine games against New Orleans.

“There’s a lot of new faces,” Payton said of the Cowboys. “The key, I think, and the message really was getting familiar with this team, the team we’re playing this weekend. These two teams really haven’t played each other yet when you look at the roster makeup.”

Things to watch in the fifth meeting in the past six seasons between the Saints and Cowboys, who lead the series 15-11 after winning 11 of the first 12 from 1967-84.

MOMENTUM FACTOR: The Cowboys have won two in a row for their fourth straight 2-1 record in four full seasons under Garrett. But they’ve never made it to 3-1 and haven’t won three straight in

defensive scheme. The pressure has helped the secondary be opportunistic while developing a rotation.

“That’s our job, to go out there and try to get the ball back,” said Louisville senior strong safety Floyd, who moved back this season after recording four interceptions at cornerback in 2013. “This defense puts us in perfect position to go out there and make plays on the ball. So, yes, we are very opportunistic.”

No one has epitomized that resourcefulness more than Holliman, a sophomore who has intercepted two passes in consecutive games and is the ACC’s Defensive Back of the Week.

A backup most of last season, Holliman has quickly blossomed into the hard-hitting playmaker that Louisville needed. The 6-foot, 206-pound Miami

almost two years.

The Saints (1-2) are trying to continue their recovery from an uncharacteristic 0-2 start under Payton.

They took the first step with last week’s 20-9 victory over Minnesota.

ROMO’S ROUTINE: Tony Romo skipped practice on Wednesday last week and played his best game since returning from back surgery in December in last week’s 34-31 win at St. Louis. He showed some mobility, found Dez Bryant wide open on a 68-yard touchdown pass and directed a rally from a 210 deficit.

So when he sat out Wednesday again this week, naturally the question of superstition came up. “No, it’s probably a little deeper than that, but you can write that if it helps,” Romo said with a smile.

WITTEN AND GRAHAM: Witten needs 106 yards to become the third tight end in league history with 10,000 yards receiving.

And he’s squaring of f against a standout in

Jimmy Graham who’s likely to join that list someday if he stays healthy. He already has 4,117 yards early in his fifth season.

Witten is in his 12th year.

ROB RYAN’S RETURN: Saints defensive coordinator Rob R yan returns to his old home field after the Cowboys fired him following the 2012 season.

He orchestrated the biggest defensive tur naround since the 1970 merger last year, and that included holding the Cowboys to their lowest yardage total (193) in five years.

SUNDAY NIGHT MAGIC: The Saints are 8-1 on Sunday night under the Payton era, easily explainable by outside linebacker Junior Galette.

“Sunday night football, your mama’s watching, your aunt,” Galette said.

“You know, everybody is going to be watching that game — your sixth-grade girlfriend. So you’re going to bring your A-game.”

yards per game through the air.

And the Cardinals still have two-thirds of their season left to get better.

“I think we still need some improvement, but I’m not surprised by how well we’re playing,” Floyd

said. “We’ve got a lot of talent in the secondary and I expected us to play this well. ...

“I expect teams to throw away from (Holliman) unless they want picks, but that opens up the door for a lot of other guys.”

ability with good makeup” and possessed “skills similar to (Barry) Larkin as high school player.”

Larkin, who played college ball at Michigan, became a Hall of Fame shortstop with the Reds.

The California Angels’ Jon Niederer noticed Jeter was “somewhat thin-chested and ‘pointy shouldered,”’ saying he had a “good face — very young looking” and was a “top student from a high class family.”

Niederer said Jeter had “all the tools to play the game at a high level.” He

took note of his “very quick hands and feet — so quick they can get him set up to make a play before the ball arrives and he looks out of synch.”

Ed Santa of the Colorado Rockies said Jeter had a “perfect SS body” and projected him to have All-Star potential.

“You get excited just watching him warm up,” he wrote in May 1992.

Dave Littlefield, who scouted Jeter for the Montreal Expos and went on to become Pittsburgh’s general manager, wrote a report that praised Jeter’s body type and bode well for future success.

“Hi butt, longish arms &

legs, leanish torso,” he said.

Among his other remarks was the “young colt” description.

“I think I got most of that right,” said Littlefield, who now scouts for the Chicago Cubs. “I wish in retrospect we had picked him.”

Jeter says he never really focused on scouts and is pretty sure they first showed up to scout another player on his summer team.

Grouch observed Jeter for about a year but tried not to interact with him.

“He always stayed away.

He kept his distance,” Jeter said.

Grouch had a reason for his behavior.

“I did not want him to

know that I was at the ballpark,” he said. “I sat in my car. I was in the bushes. I was in the woods. I didn’t want him to play for me, because I wanted to see how he handled failure.

And every game that he played was the same.”

As the draft approached, Yankees’ director of scouting Bill Livesey made the trip to Michigan to watch him play. But the entire organization avoided contact. Five other teams were ahead of New York.

“We pretty much zeroed in on him, but none of us wanted to get our hopes up,” Livesey said. And when Yankees executives met on the day before the

PAUL LESSARD FOR THE RECORD The Lake Arthur Panthers ran their record to 4-1 as they jumped all over the Calvary West Christian Huskies 71-12 in a game called at half. The Huskies, out of Anthony, New Mexico and playing their initial season of high school football, were overwhelmed as the Panthers scored on all seven of their possessions and saw Lake Arthur score three defensive touchdowns as well.

The game was a good rebound for the Panthers who were still smarting from a big loss to rival Hondo the week before.

The Panthers needed a little over a minute to get over that game as they opened up a quick 60-yard drive to go up 8-0 at the 7:32 mark.

Cody Dalton threw the first of two TDs on the evening – this one from 28 yards out.

Coach Jose Porras was pleased with the way his squad rebounded from their loss. “Congrats to these guys. They learned from last week and rebounded from the loss. One loss does not make a season – especially in the pre-season. We used this game to rebound, everyone got to play, and this is the best practice anyone could get – hitting and playing someone besides your own.”

The Huskies, who finished with -2 yards total offense, had trouble all evening gaining positive yardage. After turning the ball over on downs at their own 34, the Panthers needed 4 plays to go up 14-0.

Dalton was on the receiving end this time as Leonel Velo threw a perfect strike from 7-yards out.

Calvary lost 17 yards out on the ensuing possession

which led to a short drive by the Panthers. Velo ran in untouched up the middle from 3 yards out to give the Panthers a 20-0 lead after one quarter.

The second quarter was more of the same for both squads as the Panthers scored in every way imaginable while the Huskies did see the end zone a couple of times.

The Huskies fumbled twice and suffered a huge sack by Ignacio Lopez to give the ball again. The Panthers needed one play to score as Cody Dalton threw a bomb to his brother Brandon to stretch the lead to 28-0.

Brandon Dalton followed up his offensive score with a defensive one as he returned a tipped pass 17 yards for the first of three defensive scores to give the Panthers a 36-0 lead.

Velo intercepted the Huskie quarterback on the next play, and four plays later it was 43-0. Saul De La Cruz took a turn scoring as he ran it in from 4 yards out. De La Cruz would top the stats chart with 70 yards rushing on 8 attempts.

The Huskies got a spark on the following kickoff as Patrick Ayala took it the distance from 65 yards out to get the visitors on the scoreboard. The excitement would wane as Cody Dalton led a short drive that he would finish with an 8-yard scamper and a 51-6 lead.

Lilly would get another score as he ran back an interception 55 yards out.

“Mr. Lilly stepped it up from last week,” stated coach Porras. The score gave the Panthers the 50point cushion they were seeking.

The Panthers would add another defensive score as

draft, there was one last internal hurdle to overcome — and it was a big one.

“Mr. Steinbrenner was not real high on taking high school kids, simply because they were too long from the big leagues. So we had to convince him,” Livesey said, referring to late owner George Steinbrenner, who was suspended from baseball at the time.

“He asked me how long it was going to take for him to be in the big leagues,” Livesey said. “It was a little bit of the fib: I told him four years.”

The five teams ahead of the Yankees didn’t take Jeter. Not Houston, not

Cleveland, not Montreal, not Baltimore, not Cincinnati. When the Yankees were up, Jeter was there for the picking.

Jeter signed for a $700,000 bonus (he would make $266 million from the Yankees), reached the major leagues for the first time in 1995 and quickly blossomed.

Grouch says he had a feeling.

“He’s going to be able to play in the toughest venue in all of athletics, and that’s Yankee Stadium,” he said.

“And this guy, he was going to capture this entire city. He was going to capture New York.”

Nats in Playoffs Panthers crush Huskies 71-12 despite 7-4 loss vs. Mets WASHINGTON (AP) — This time, Ryan Zimmerman’s healing hamstring appeared to pass a seven-inning for the playoff-bound Washington Nationals.

Zimmerman hit, ran the bases and played left field to the satisfaction of manager Matt Williams in the Nationals’ 7-4 loss to the New York Mets in the opener of a day-night doubleheader Thursday.

“It was less thinking about it, I think, which is exactly what we want,” said Williams, who added that the two-time Silver Slugger winner could’ve finished the game if needed. “We want him to be able to react out there. I thought it was fine today.”

Matt den Dekker singled home the go-ahead run off Tyler Clippard (74) in the eighth inning to help the Mets (77-81) avoid a sixth consecutive losing season, at least for a few more hours.

Wilmer Flores drove den in Dekker from second with an infield single, and Ruben Tejada singled home another run in the ninth.

Curtis Granderson also had three of New York’s 15 hits and drove in three runs to prevent NL East champion Washington from clinching home field throughout the NL playoffs until at least Friday. Flores had three singles.

Zimmerman went 1 for 4 and played left field in his second start since straining the hamstring in late July. He’s batting .286 with 37 RBIs in 56 games as he attempts to get healthy for Washington’s postseason.

Zimmerman scored in the fourth after singling, going first-to-third at 75 percent pace on Adam LaRoche’s single, and running home at a similar speed on Ian Desmond’s sacrifice fly to center.

“I can’t really go 100 percent yet,” Zimmerman confessed. “I’m sort of learning what I have, what I don’t have, and the only way to do that is to go out and play.”

Saturday in his first start back, Zimmerman went 2 for 3, tripled and drove in a run, and was also removed after seven.

He was slated to play third, his position in past seasons, on Tuesday before residual soreness prompted Williams to reduce him to a pinch-hitting role.

“I’m just getting hits,” said Granderson, who is .229 with 19 homers and 65 RBI in his first season with the Mets, but is 9 for his last 21. “I really wish it was more complicated than that, but sometimes you find a little bit of grass or a couple of holes here or

there. That’s really it.”

Carlos Torres (8-5) pitched the seventh, and Jenrry Mejia worked the ninth for his 28th save.

Nationals left-hander Gio Gonzalez (9-10) faced Mets righty Zack Wheeler (11-10) in the second game Thursday.

The Nationals also play a home day-night doubleheader Friday against the Miami Marlins.

Washington’s Blake T reinen allowed four runs on eight hits in 4 13 innings, the shortest of his seven spot starts this season, while New York’s Dillon Gee gave up four runs on nine hits over five.

ROTATING FORWARD With RHP Jordan Zimmer mann (13-5, 2.78) starting Sunday, he could start the first or second game of next week’s NLDS, on four or five days rest so long as he shows no ill effects from a line drive taken to his throwing shoulder last Saturday.

“We wanted to get (his rest) as close to the same as possible for this start and his first start in the postseason.

TRAINER’S ROOM Nationals: CF Denard Span (right knee soreness) was left out of Thursday’s early game two days after he departed following a tumbling catch in the series opener. Williams said Span could be an option in the late game.

Mets: After David Wright 3B (inflamed left shoulder) said Wednesday he’s in the beginning stages of a six-week rehab program in hopes of avoiding surgery, manager Terry Collins Thursday said he may be more aggressive in resting Wright next season.

“What I’ve got to do is forget about the asking and just give him some time off,” Collins said. ...

C T ravis d”Ar naud (unspecified ailment) will not play at least until he sees Mets team doctors Friday, Collins said.

UP NEXT Nationals: Taylor Hill (0-0, 4.15) will make his first career major league start Friday, though it’s not clear whether he will pitch the day or night game. Doug Fister (15-6, 2.55) will make the other start against Miami, which is pitching RHP Jared Cosart (13-10, 3.70) early and LHP Andrew Heaney (0-3, 5.33) late.

Mets: LHP Jonathan Niese (9-11, 3.50) will attempt to reach the 10win plateau for the third time in his career in a series opener against Houston’s Brad Peacock (4-9, 4.82).

Lake Arthur defeated Calvary west 71-12 in a game that was called at the half. The win improves the Panthers record to 4-1 on the season.

Adrian Gonzalez would pick up a punt blocked by Carlos Montoya and go in from 15 yards to give the Panthers a 65-6 lead with 1:36 to play in the half. Porras was very pleased with the play of Gonzalez, in his first year of varsity ball. “This is a guy that wishes he would have come out a long time ago. Seeing that first touchdown of his life – he’s going to remember that for the rest of his life…to be a part of that…that’s what it’s all

about.”

As is the case in 6-man football, that is plenty of time as both teams score once more. Ayala scored again for the Huskies which was followed by Cody Dalton catching a 47 yard TD pass from Velo to finish up the scoring at 7112.

The Panthers look to continue their winning ways as they travel to play Clovis Christian next Friday night.

Apple’s response to iPhone glitches is key B4 Friday, September 26, 2014

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Apple’s response to a highprofile gaffe involving its iPhone software may be more important than the glitch itself.

As the giant tech company scrambled to fix a software glitch that left some of its new iPhones unable to make calls, some analysts said Thursday that Apple is doing the right thing by quickly acknowledging and apologizing for the problem — which it was slower to do with earlier iPhone problems.

Apple released a new update late Thursday that the company said would repair the problems caused by software it released Wednesday morning. And it repeated an earlier apology to owners of its newest iPhones who were affected by that buggy release.

“There’s a certain perception that Apple has to get things right, and when they don’t, the whole company gets questioned,” said Carolina Milanesi, chief of research at Kantar Worldpanel. “But they came out and said ‘We apologize; we’re working 24/7 to fix it.’

I think that’s what matters.”

Apple’s stock fell nearly 4 percent Thursday, leading a broader decline in technology shares, a day after the company was forced to withdraw an update to its new iOS 8 mobile software because of glitches that primarily affected customers who had purchased its new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus models.

The 6 Plus phone has also been the subject of social media reports that its extra-

large shell is vulnerable to bending.

In a statement Thursday, Apple defended its manufacturing standards and said bending “is extremely rare” with normal use of an iPhone. The company said just nine customers had contacted Apple to report a bent iPhone 6 Plus since they went on sale Friday.

Later in the day, Apple released a new update, dubbed iOS 8.0.2, which it said would fix the problems caused by the iOS 8.0.1 update that it released on Wednesday. “We apologize for inconveniencing the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus

companies have released fixes that they’ve had to pull because of unforeseen sideeffects,” he added.

As for the bending issue, Rubin said the iPhone 6 Plus is “a large, thin device.

That’s not to say customers should treat it gingerly, but it’s still an electronic product and it’s an investment, and it should be treated as such.”

Apple is held to a higher standard by many consumers, analysts said. But Milanesi said she thought the company suffered more harm a few years ago, when it was slow to acknowledge complaints about poor

ware known as iOS 8.

That new software contains a number of new features and is more complex than earlier versions of iOS, analysts said. Apple released the 8.0.1 update on Wednesday to fix some flaws that were detected after iOS 8 was released — only to find the 8.0.1 update created problems of its own.

The new problems included interference with calling and with a feature that lets people unlock their phones with their fingerprint.

That’s not uncommon, according to veteran tech analyst Ross Rubin of Reticle Research. “All major

users who were impacted by the bug in iOS 8.0.1,” the company said in a statement.

A day earlier, the company had also apologized “for the great inconvenience experienced by users” and vowed to work “around the clock” to fix the problem.

Cupertino-based Apple has said it sold a record 10 million of the new iPhone models over the weekend, in what the company has called one of the biggest product launches in its history. It also reported this week that nearly half of all iPhone and iPad users had upgraded to the new soft-

Abandoned truck dripping rancid chicken juice

MISSOULA, Mont. (AP) — A truck dripping rancid juices from thousands of pounds of rotting chicken sat in the heat attracting flies Thursday at a western Montana truck stop, where an Idaho trucking company employee abandoned it.

The driver left the trailer containing approximately 37,000 pounds of frozen chicken near the Flying J Truck Stop west of Missoula after the company refused his requests for more money, authorities said. The chicken was worth $80,000.

The truck was discovered Tuesday.

It may have been left there more than

reception and dropped calls that affected new iPhone 4 models when they were released in 2010. The company eventually offered a fix for the problem, after thenCEO Steve Jobs initially suggested users just needed to hold the phone differently.

“There wasn’t any of that this time,” Milanesi said.

She noted that Jobs’ successor, CEO Tim Cook, had also taken responsibility and apologized for initial problems with Apple’s Maps software when it was first released.

Meanwhile, one analyst said Thursday’s stock selloff was more likely related to broader market concerns than investor unease about the new iPhones.

“Earnings is what drives the stock the most,” said Walter Piecyk of BTIG Research. “It’s too early to say what the impact’s going to be, but it does not appear to be something that would impact the company’s ability to deliver on earnings” in the next two quarters.

Apple said users affected by the software glitch can connect their phone to a Mac or Windows computer and download a file to restore an earlier version of the iOS 8 software.

AP Photo

In this April 2014 image released by HBO, host John Oliver speaks during “Last Week Tonight with John Oliver,” in New York.

Oliver adds journalism to comedy NEW YORK (AP) — In poking fun at the Miss America pageant on the most recent episode of HBO’s “Last Week T onight,” John Oliver reached for the comedic equivalent of low-hanging fruit. Then he veered into something wholly unexpected — investigative journalism.

His subsequent report the questioning pageant’s scholarship program was the latest example of how Oliver has quickly moved beyond his roots at “The Daily Show” to produce something distinctive, and usually hilarious.

Oliver, who subbed for Jon Stewart as host of “The Daily Show” last summer and began his own HBO weekly show in April, often devotes about half of his 30 minutes to a single topic below the headlines. He’s discussed gender pay inequality, anti-gay laws in Uganda, net neutrality and the politics of the World Cup. Remember, this is a comedy show.

His 15-minute Miss America segment began with jokes about how dated a beauty pageant seems, and his incredulity at some of

the questions contestants are asked. He took some shots at Donald T rump, who owns a competing pageant. Then he zeroed in on the Miss America organization’s claim of making $45 million in scholarship money available to young women each year.

“Forty-five million,” Oliver said. “That is an unbelievable amount of money. As in, I literally did not believe that.”

His staf f researched documents, finding a federal disclosure form that said the pageant spent $482,000 in scholarships in 2012. They researched tax forms on statewide pageants, finding several scholarship offers that couldn’t possibly be awarded at the same time were added together to help reach the final figure. In other words, people shouldn’t confuse money that may be available with money spent.

That’s jour nalism, minus any appar ent attempt to let pageant officials offer their side.

The organization subsequently issued a statement not specifically Oliver’s addr essing charge that Miss America was being misleading,

but said that “as with any scholarship, the full amount awar ded may not always be used as recipients’ plans change or evolve.”

Oliver has journalists who worked at the New York T imes Magazine and ProPublica on his writing staff.

Robert Thompson, director of Syracuse University’s Bleier Center for Television and Popular Culture, calls Oliver’s work “investigative comedy.” Thompson has played the net neutrality segment for his students.

Resear ch indicates that young people ar e much more likely than their elders to take a deeper dive into news stories that inter est them, searching for more information online, said Tom Rosenstiel, executive director of the American Pr ess Institute.

What Oliver is doing responds to that desire, he said.

“Ther e is a natural link between committing journalism and committing comedy,” Rosenstiel said. “They’re both in the uncovering and unmasking business, but with different approaches.”

VENICE TO CLOSE AREA FOR CLOONEY WEDDING

MILAN (AP) — Venice city officials on Thursday ordered the closure of a walkway fronting the picturesque Grand Canal on Monday to keep crowds away from George Clooney’s wedding to human rights lawyer Amal Alamuddin.

The city order closes pedestrian access to walkways accessing the 16th-Century Cavalli Palace for at least two hours Monday, citing “the George Clooney wedding.”

The order is the first official indication of the timing of the nuptials.

Clooney revealed earlier this month at a star-studded benefit in Florence that he would marry Alamuddin in the lagoon city, but refrained from giving the date. Press reports have speculated that the couple would have two ceremonies, one on Saturday followed by a civil ceremony on Monday.

A Venice city official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media, said police requested the closure to prevent

crowds from gathering and creating a safety risk. The official said such closures have taken place previously for both public and private events.

Only city offices are affected by the closure area, not businesses that cater to tourists, the official said.

The Renaissance-era Cavalli Palace is used as a venue for civil marriage ceremonies, with rooms offering views of the Grand Canal and the famed Rialto Bridge.

The palace can be accessed by gondola for the most ‘’exciting arrival,” the Venice city website notes.

Clooney owns a lakeside villa in northern Italy and has been a frequent visitor to Venice, notably to premier movies at the annual film festival.

Clooney, 53, and Alamuddin, 36, a Beirut-born British national based in London, posted the required legal notice in Britain last month, declaring their intention to marry abroad, specifically in Italy.

It’s his second marriage and her first.

B6 Friday, September 26, 2014 DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: My husband recently passed away, and among his papers I discovered evidence of another previous marriage. It came as a shock because he had never told me.

Should I ask his family how long this previous marriage lasted, or should I let it go and be grateful for the good and loving husband he was during our 27 years together? He was a widower with no kids and I was a widow when we met. What do you think?

NUMBER THREE IN ARIZONA

DEAR NUMBER THREE: Your husband may have been divorced from wife No. 1, or the marriage could have been annulled and he didn’t think it “counted.”

While I agree that you should be grateful for the 27 happy years you spent together, I can’t ignore the fact that such an important piece of information was withheld from you.

If you have questions and think the family can answer them, you are entitled to know. ##### DEAR ABBY: My sister is difficult, and our relationship has been extremely rocky over the years. She insists upon doling out unsolicited advice and asking pointed personal questions about my finances, health, sex life, etc. I have told her more than once that these things are none of her business unless I choose to discuss them. Her response is she’s “only trying to help.”

Our mother died six months ago and my sister is again making overtures. I’m hesitant about speaking

COMICS

with her again because she’s so volatile. I’ll do it only if she respects my boundaries.

I am searching for the right words to tell her a relationship will work only if both parties respect each other, and that trust has to be earned. I’d appreciate any suggestions.

GUARDED SIBLING IN FLORIDA DEAR GUARDED SIBLING: Please accept my condolences for the loss of your mother. I am unclear as to why you would want to accept the overtures from someone with whom you have such a difficult relationship. However, because you feel that it would be possible under your terms, my advice is to write her a letter and tell her you will be willing to try only under the circumstances you described to me. To do so would not be rude, and it will be interesting to see if she is able to comply. ##### DEAR ABBY: I’m being married next year and

want to make sure I send written thank-you notes to everyone. I have been a diligent thank-you note writer for years.

Family Circus

Can you tell me what’s the best way to get everyone’s address? I have had problems with this in the past. I hate having to call and ask because the people always want to know why I want the information.

Would it be OK to have as part of the wedding website a place where guests who attend can confirm their mailing address?

BRIDE-TO-BE IN CALIFORNIA

DEAR BRIDE-TO-BE:

How do you plan to invite your guests to the wedding? Most brides send their invitations via U.S. mail, which requires the person’s name, address and ZIP code on the envelope.

However, if you plan to issue your invitations online, then I see no reason you can’t ask your guests to confirm their information on your wedding site. It wouldn’t be a breach of etiquette.

Barbara, via email Yes, I do have a great simple home remedy! All you need to remove the tar splatters is a jar of peanut butter, but NOT crunchy! Rub a glob of peanut butter on the spot and wipe with an old towel. It’s the oil in the peanut butter that helps remove all tar.

SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 78279-5000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise@Heloise.com Dear Heloise: Several weeks ago, you gave some good advice about using the LATCH system in a vehicle to secure a car seat. What you didn’t mention and what isn’t well known is that there is a weight limit for using the LATCH system. Some parents continue to use the LATCH system well past the time when they should be using a seatbelt to secure the car seat. The weight limit differs from vehicle to vehicle and is the combined weight of the child and seat.

Gordon W. in Houston How right you are! It’s not necessarily the age of the child, but the weight and height. Some toddlers may weigh more than the weight restriction, and we all know how fast the little ones grow! Take a look today at the car seat to see what the instructions are. You might save a child’s life or prevent serious injury.

Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: Recently, I had grab bars installed in my walk-in shower, which I really like to use. When visiting my daughter, I take a plastic grab bar with suction cups and place it on the shower wall. This works well and makes it safer for me.

Baynes H., San Angelo, Texas Good hint, but please be sure that the grab bar is really SECURED to the shower wall!

Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: Our small kitchen table broke recently. The chairs were still good, and we didn’t want to spend a ton of money on a new set. We went to a charitable-organization resale shop and found a table that worked with our chairs for very little money. We saved money and helped other people! It was a great deal.

Paula in Texas

Dear Heloise: I keep a yellow sticky note on my sewing machine. When I need to thread the needle, I hold the sticky note behind the needle, which helps me see the hole. I used to really dread changing the color of thread, since I had such a hard time getting the needle threaded. Now I don’t mind at all.

Mexican cartels steal billions from oil industry Roswell Daily Record

CIUDAD MIER, Mexico (AP) — Mexico overcame 75 years of nationalist pride to reform its flagging, stateowned oil industry. But as it prepares to develop rich shale fields along the Gulf Coast, and attract foreign investors, another challenge awaits: taming the brutal drug cartels that rule the region and are stealing billions of dollars’ worth of oil from pipelines.

Figures released by Petroleos Mexicanos last week show the gangs are becoming more prolific and sophisticated. So far this year, thieves across Mexico have drilled 2,481 illegal taps into state-owned pipelines, up more than one-third from the same period of 2013. Pemex estimates it’s lost some 7.5 million barrels worth $1.15 billion.

Pemex director Emilio Lozoya called the trend “worrisome.”

More than a fifth of the illegal taps occurred in Tamaulipas, the Gulf state neighboring Texas that is a cornerstone for Mexico’s future oil plans. It has Mexico’s largest fields of recoverable shale gas, the natural gas extracted by fracturing rock layers, or fracking.

Mexico, overall, is believed to have the world’s sixth-largest reserves of shale gas — equivalent to

60 billion barrels of crude oil. That’s more than twice the total amount of oil that Mexico has produced by conventional means over the last century.

The energy refor m passed in December loosened Mexico’s protectionist policies, opening the way for Pemex to seek foreign investors and expertise to help it exploit its shale fields. It hopes to draw $10 billion to $15 billion in private investment each year.

The attractiveness of the venture may hinge on

bringing Tamaulipas under control.

“The energy reform won’t be viable if we aren’t successful ... in solving the problem of crime and impunity,” said Sen. David Penchyna, who heads the Senate Energy Commission. “The biggest challenge we Mexicans have, and I say it without shame, is Tamaulipas.”

Goldwyn said the Mexican gover nment is going to have to be a lot clearer about its security plan for most shale exploration and production companies, which don’t have experience working in risky areas.

“What’s the government going to do, what kind of protection, what is it going to allow the operators to do inside their fence line?” he said in a recent conference call with reporters.

Two rival gangs, the Zetas and the Gulf cartel, long have used Tamaulipas as a route to ferry drugs and migrants to the United States and, in recent years, diversified their business: stealing gas and crude and selling it to refineries in Texas or to gas stations on either side of the border.

At least twice a day, the gangs pull up to one of the hundreds of pipelines that crisscross the state. Workers quickly shovel down a couple of yards to uncover a pipeline and siphon their booty into a stolen tanker truck, said army Col. Juan Carlos Guzman, whose troops have raided a number of such illegal taps.

A dirt far m road led down to one site outside Ciudad Victoria, 180 miles southwest of McAllen, Texas. About a half-mile from a nearby highway, thieves had dug out a pit

and inserted a large needlelike device into the pipeline.

By the time soldiers arrived, the gang members had fled, and only the driver of the half-loaded gasoline truck was arrested.

The knowledge needed to tap into the pressurized pipelines leads authorities to suspect the gangs have infiltrated Pemex or coopted company workers.

“It is impossible to do this without information on the timing and level of flows,” said Marco Antonio Bernal, a federal congressman from Tamaulipas who is drafting legislation to toughen punishment for pipeline thefts.

The suspicions were reinforced earlier this month when detectives nabbed a Gulf cartel leader who was found carrying a fake Pemex employee credential, complete with his photo and a false name.

Pemex is installing more automated pipeline shut-off valves operated remotely from a control room in Mexico City. Such controls allow them to not only stop spills often caused by illegal taps but to avoid having to send workers out to unpopulated, dangerous areas to tur n of f valves manually.
