Mud, Sweat and Tears:

SUNDAY

Competition and camaraderie make Roswell’ s first mud run a success

AMY VOGELSANG RECORD STAFF WRITER

Exhilaration and tension swept across Noon Optimist Park. The sun broke through, war ming the crisp air and shining upon neon colors, taffeta skirts and an overwhelming amount of team spirit. Some paced nervously. Some danced with excitement. For some, it would be challenging. For others, it would seem like nothing. Only one thing was certain: No person would emerge unscathed. There would be mud. Roswell’s first mud run, Roswell Mud, Sweat and Tears, had a great turnout Saturday mor ning. Although no finite number was determined on Saturday, Barbara Gomez, coordinator of the run, said there may have been more than 300 people, far exceeding the goal of 150. And many runners came from neighboring states like Arizona and Texas, as well as all over the state. “I had people tell me they were going to go out of town for another run, but decided to stay in Roswell for this run,” Gomez said. Whether runners were out for competition in a 5K or simply running for fun in the 1.5 mile, everyone was beaming. Some proceeds of the event went to Operation Wounded Warrior New Mexico, and the Wounded Warrior team started off

the races. Husband and wife Kenny and Brandie McMillon, Jennifer Tucker and Jessica Eastman helped make up the WW team. But their group was headed-up by Legion Rider Jimmy Montoya. “We work together and are pretty close knit,” Eastman said. “So when Jimmy mentioned running for Wounded Warriors, we all volunteered.” None of them had done a mud run before, but they didn’t seem the slightest bit worried. Mostly they just emitted excitement. “I wanted to rise to the challenge of leading by example,” Montoya said. And in their leadership, they were the first to run the course. A group of girls in matching Wonder Woman outfits, “The Dirty Girls” and “Women O Sweat” were just a few of the groups to follow. There also was a mother-daughter duo facing the extremes of the mud run. Heather Schmidt and daughter, Celina, dressed alike in curly white wigs streaked pink and purple and their faces peaked out behind masquerade masks. “We went to the costume store and threw on what we had,” Heather said. “You can be as crazy as you want because no one can recognize you!” Being incognito apparently has its advantages, even in a mud race. A lot of camaraderie was seen along every point of

limitless gover nment, bureaucratic arrogance and a disregard of a will of the people,” said Rep. Marlin Stutzman, R-Ind. Another Republican, Rep. Darrell Issa of California, reacted angrily when asked whether he would eventually support a standalone spending bill if needed to prevent a shutdown. “How dare you presume a failure? How dare you? How dare you?” he said. Apart from its impact on the health care law, the legislation that House Republicans decided to back would assure routine funding for government agencies through Dec. 15. Under House rules, the measure went to the Senate after lawmakers voted 248174 to repeal the medical tax, then 231-192 for the

one-year delay in Obamacare. A companion measure to assure U.S. troops are paid in the event of a shutdown passed unanimously. The government spending measure marked something of a reduction in demands by House Republicans, who passed legislation several days ago that would permanently strip the health care law of money while providing funding for the gover nment. It also contained significant concessions from a party that long has criticized the health care law for imposing numerous government mandates on industry, in some cases far exceeding what Republicans have been willing to support in the past.

prizes, enjoyed the event. “Everyone who crosses that finish line covered in mud looks tired, but they all have huge smiles on their faces,” observed onlooker Mike Walsh. As music kept playing and the Roswell Daily Record took victorious pic-

tures of teams so covered in mud that it was sometimes hard to know who each person was, there was no shortness of grinning. Ultimately, it was agreed that the happiness felt by everyone made the first mud run a success.

Shutdown nearing, GOP seeks health care delay noon on Monday, 10 hours before a shutdown would begin, and even some Republicans said privately they feared that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., held the advantage in the fast-approaching end game. If so, a House GOP rank and file that includes numerous tea party allies would soon have to choose between triggering the first partial shutdown in nearly two decades — or coming away empty-handed from their latest confrontation with Obama. Undeterred, House Republicans pressed ahead with their latest attempt to squeeze a concession from the White House in exchange for letting the government open for business normally on Tuesday. “Obamacare is based on a

WASHINGTON (AP) — Locked in a deepening struggle with President Barack Obama, the Republican-controlled House approved legislation early Sunday imposing a oneyear delay in key parts of the nation’s health care law and repealing a tax on medical devices as the price for avoiding a partial government shutdown in a few days’ time. Even before the House voted, Senate Democrats pledged to reject the measure and the White House issued a statement vowing a veto in any event. Republicans are pursuing “a narrow ideological agenda ... and pushing the government towards shutdown,” it said. The Senate is not scheduled to meet until mid-after-

De La O’s dainty doe takes grand champion

TESS TOWNSEND RECORD STAFF WRITER The daintiest of Nubian does stole the title of grand champion during Saturday’s dairy goats show at the Easter n New Mexico State Fair. Junior exhibitor Kaden De La O, 11, of Tatum, said he was “excited” and “surprised” that his class three goat, 20-month-old GigiAlley, won. Judge Stacy Eberhart, a science teacher at Roswell High School, praised the goat for its femininity and its sharp and angular features. She said Gigi-Alley is “just a doe that you can tell has a great future ahead of her.” The title of reserve champion went to Silver, raised by senior exhibitor and Kenna resident Hannah Bilbrey, 15, daughter of Cody and Travis Bilbrey. Bilbrey said she did not expect Silver to win due to the doe’s relatively advanced age. “She’s six, so she’s not as good as she used to be,” said Bilbrey, who has participated in the Elida chapter of 4-H for six years. Silver won the title of grand champion three times in her younger years. Bilbrey said she keeps her champion Lamancha goat in shape through tender love and care. “Spend time with them,

mess with them, make sure they’re gentle and everything,” she advised. De La O said that his parents David and Esmeralda, who are dairy goat farmers, have taught him to bottle feed goats beginning in infancy, so as to tame them sooner. “We get good goats out of it,” he said. De La O is the only of the two champions who plans to go into agriculture. He said he hopes to one day take over his family’s farm, so that he can pass the craft down to his own children.

ATF offers $5K reward in pipe bomb case

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Federal authorities are offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction in a case in which several pipe bombs were left in two eastern New Mexico communities. The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firear ms and Explosives announced the reward Friday. Anyone with information is being asked to contact the ATF. Authorities say six pipe bombs were recovered in Roswell and Clovis during a three-month period earlier this year. All of the pipe-bomb devices were similar, except for one. The unique device recovered in Roswell was a homemade hand grenade-type device. Authorities say all of the devices were found intact and unexploded in outdoor areas. Three were found in Roswell and three were found in Clovis.

Lane contends the federal agency doesn’t have a viable recovery plan for the wolves. “Their approach puts stakeholders in a predicament of deciding to participate in a process that lacks defined objectives for wolf recovery, or risk sitting on the sidelines and watching the process unfold without the opportunity to provide input,” Lane said in a statement issued Friday.

SANTA FE (AP) — The state Game Commission has decided its wants New Mexico to have a seat at the table when it comes to making decisions about the federal government’s efforts to reintroduce Mexican gray wolves to the American Southwest. The commission voted this week to direct the New Mexico Game and Fish Department to sign to a memorandum of understanding with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as the federal agency drafts an environmental impact statement for the troubled wolf program. The vote comes two years after the Game and Fish Department officially pulled out of the program. Now, state Game and Fish Director Jim Lane said the department wants to help in the interpretation of scientific data and influence any decisions that will ultimately

Roswell and Anderson museums honor Finch TESS TOWNSEND RECORD STAFF WRITER

A cluster of women chatted with raised voices in the lobby of the Roswell Museum and Art Center. “I’m 2009,” says Shirly Myers, 71, a past president of the Pecos Valley Potters Guild founded by Finch. She calls herself a “baby.” Wanda Dent, 70, who also previously served as president of the guild, says she started in 1987. Geneva Bailey, 64, refers to Dent as “old as water.” The women are referring to the years in which they began studying pottery under the tutelage of Roswell ceramic artist and educator Aria Finch. They were among hundreds of friends, students, colleagues and family members of Finch attending the reception of Finch’s show Tweeting Elations at the Roswell Museum and Art Center and ensuing dinner held at the Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art Saturday evening. The dinner celebrated Finch’s receipt of the Governor’s Award for Excellence in the Arts. The award recognizes Finch’s work in art education in Roswell. The award is granted by the New Mexico Arts Commis-

sion to honor the lifetime achievements of artists and supporters of the arts in New Mexico. Finch says receiving the prestigious award is “humbling” and “amazing.” She describes how the honor contrasts with the low-key nature of pottery. “The medium is dirt, it’s clay,” she says. “The craft is humble and functional.” Laurie Rufe, who retired from her role as director of the RMAC, nominated Finch for the award. “I think Aria is probably one of the most gifted artists in our community,” said Rufe. “I think she’s changed people’s lives. I really do think that’s a major outcome of having her as an instructor.” According to Anderson and Roswell museum sources, about 140 people attended the dinner, and 200 attended the reception for Tweeting Elations, a display of Finch’s art centered around ideas of communication. The show was reviewed in the most recent edition of Vision Magazine, a Daily Record publication. The Anderson Museum event was sponsored by the Roswell and Anderson museums, the Potters Guild, the Roswell Artist-inResidence Foundation, and

members of the Anderson family, including Anderson Museum founder Donald Anderson, his wife and nephew. The dinner included music performed by Roswell-based vintage rock and easy-listening duo David Hett and Tina Williams. Tinnie Mercantile Store and Deli catered. As she introduced a toast to Finch, Anderson Museum Event Coordinator Sue Wink said she knew Finch preferred not to be the center of attention, but that everyone present wanted to congratulate her anyway. “This is long overdue,” she said of the award. Finch has been involved in bringing art to the masses for little or no cost since she first came to Roswell in 1979 to work as the manager of the Roswell Museum’s ceramics program. She says she has taught art to more people than she “can even begin to guess.” She currently teaches up to 85 students per term at the Roswell Museum. The museum holds four terms of classes each year. In addition, Finch and her students and colleagues in the Pottery Guild teach pottery to just under 800 students in the Roswell Independent School District each year.

Community comes together to benefit Humane Society AMY VOGELSANG RECORD STAFF WRITER

It was still dark, and surprisingly cold, but these obstacles didn’t discourage the vendors who set up stands at the Humane Society’s garage sale Saturday morning. As the fourth such event, it has grown from 38 vendors the first time to 78 this year, said Epic Events Event coordinator Enrique Moreno. Two years ago, Moreno saw that the Humane Society had posted on Facebook that they needed dog food, and he thought, “They shouldn’t have to do that.” He also wanted to help them promote the organization’s thrift store, and in joining fundraising with the store he conceived of the community garage sale. He said the event doesn’t just help the Humane Society, but also each vendor who participates. “You’re going to make money,” he said confidently. One man the first year made $2,200 in four hours and now buys out four stations. Of course, Moreno also enjoys the event himself, sometimes walking about a table and saying, “I’ll come back for that,” and vendors will hold items for him. “I just want to do some shopping of my own, but I also like to see the commu-

nity get together,” he said. Of course the Humane Society had a table, mostly filled with jewelry, as well as “little antiquey things,” said Manager Carol Rogers. “We make more money for our four-legged friends,” she said. “We usually do very well. Roswell is very good to the Humane Society.” The garage sale is one of its big fundraisers. And all the items are donated. Some vendors will even donate whatever they don’t sell at the end of the day, and they immediately start preparing for the next sale. They have two sales a year, usually around April and then around September, so there isn’t a lot of time in between for planning. But the Humane Society was only one of many tables selling items. Visiting all the way from Texas after her daughter told her of the fundraiser, Cindy Williamson, owner of CWdreams and More, displayed some of her artistic talent in football crosses made with napkins and découpage as well as team spirit earrings made from duct tape. Tina Woodell found herself dragged out of bed at 3

Finch says she started teaching to support herself, and that a symbiotic, cyclic relationship soon developed between her role as an educator and artist. She says teaching helped her develop greater patience. This patience, she says, leads to her taking on the role of student as she researches new concepts and techniques to teach to her students. As she teaches what she learns to her students, she identifies new material to explore, and renews the process of learning and teaching. Many of Finch’s students stay with her for decades. Finch’s student Bailey says she did not think of herself as an artist before taking the classes with

And at yet another booth, guitars, trumpets, cornets, a keyboard, flutes and other musical instruments could be purchased at reasonable prices, perfect for students.

OPINION

President Obama’s U.N. speech gets it wrong

President Obama’s speech to the United Nations General Assembly in New York was flawed, displaying a type of moral equivalency that does not exist for America’s enemies. His claim that “The world is more stable than it was five years ago” is demonstrably false. In Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Kenya, Congo, to name only a few, there are at least as many conflicts as in 2008 and far more now than when the United Nations was created. According to Themner, Lotta and Peter Wallensteen, in “Armed Conflict, 1946-2011,” Journal of Peace Research, there were fewer than 20 armed conflicts in 1946. Today there are more than 30. The president seemed to take at face value a “fatwa,” or religious edict, issued by Iran’s supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, against the development of nuclear weapons. He said, “President Rouhani has just recently reiterated that the Islamic republic will never develop a

nuclear weapon.” There are reportedly a half-dozen nuclear sites in Iran where uranium is being enriched. They are buried deep in the earth and have concrete walls several feet thick. The Iranians claim they’re developing electrical power for peaceful purposes. That’s not the profile of any power station with which I am familiar. Breaking news for the president: Our enemies lie by telling us what we want to hear while behaving duplicitously.

mention at all the Muslim war against Coptic Christians in Egypt. Why dwell on unpleasant realities when wishful thinking feels better? The president again dredged up the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians, repeating the “twostate solution” formula that the Palestinians pay lip service to, while preferring a one-state solution, absent Israel. President Obama seemed to again blame America for Muslim “hostility” because of U.S. involvement “in the Muslim world.” U.S. motivation for such involvement has been two-fold: strike at terrorists and reduce the threat they pose to the U.S. and its interests, and free people from political and religious oppression. One can debate whether those goals were sufficient to prompt U.S. “involvement,” but there can be no debate that America’s objectives were altruistic and rooted in self-preservation. As an example of how political and religious differences can be

resolved, the president again pointed to Northern Ireland and its many decades of internal conflict. While the Northern Ireland conflict pitted Protestants against Catholics, the central issue was loyalty to Britain vs. a united Ireland. Religion helped fuel the fire, but it wasn’t the fire itself. Neither side claimed a divine mandate to wipe out the other. Apparently unbeknownst to the president, the peace process in Ireland embodies something the fight for peace in the Middle East does not — a willingness by all sides to cooperate. Have we seen any real offers of cooperation from Iran? Afghanistan? Egypt? The president said America has been humbled by its foreign adventures. Humility and retreat are not a policy, unless we plan to surrender to Islamists. He didn’t articulate America’s foreign policy, because he doesn’t have one. Islamic fundamentalists can only be encouraged by this speech. They include Iran’s president, Hassan

Rouhani, who wants to suddenly make nice with President Obama in large part to ease crushing economic sanctions. The last line of the president’s U.N. speech may have been the most fantastical of all: “... we remain convinced that this community of nations can deliver a more peaceful, prosperous and just world to the next generation.” There is no “community of nations.” There are individual nations with individual interests. If the United Nations could bring peace and prosperity to the world, progress toward that goal should have been made by now. Instead, 68 years after its founding, wars and rumors of wars are increasing. (Write to Cal Thomas at: Tribune Media Services, 2225 Kenmore Ave., Suite 114, Buffalo, N.Y. 14207.

Policymakers need to remain vigilant

The U.S. Federal Reserve has brought good and bad news by deciding to delay scaling back its massive bond-purchasing program. The Fed has been printing money to inject liquidity into the financial system and thereby stimulate the U.S. economy. Each month, it has purchased $85 billion worth of Treasury and mortgage bonds to encourage people to borrow, spend and invest. Until early last week, the Fed was expected to take its first step toward rolling back the stimulus measures. A majority of Wall Street analysts predicted that it would announce a reduction of $10 billion-$15 billion in its bond purchases at its Sept. 18 meeting. But it decided to keep the current quantitative easing measures intact, citing the weak hiring and economic growth figures. The Fed’s unexpected move is good news for a group of emerging countries whose currencies have plummeted in value since May when Fed chairman Ben Bernanke first suggested a possible pullback of the stimulus program. These countries, including Indonesia, India, Thailand and Turkey, suffered an outflow of foreign capital as the prospect of higher U.S. interest rates caused the flows of money to reverse. The Fed’s decision is welcome as it will give some relief to these vulnerable economies. It also gives them more time to prepare for Washington’s eventual tapering of the monetary stimulus. The Korean government also welcomed the decision, although it experienced an inflow, rather than an outflow, of foreign capital in recent months. For Korea, the U.S. represents the secondlargest single export market. A slow recovery of the U.S. market would hamper growth of Korea’s exports. Yet it seems to be only a matter of time before the Fed starts winding down the stimulus program. It is expected to take its first step within this year. Policymakers need to keep their guard up.

Kenyan atrocity a wake-up call

The slaughter of innocent men, women and children perpetrated by Islamic militants at the Westgate Shopping Mall in Kenya, a country that is a longstanding and important Western ally, should leave the international community in no doubt about the dire consequences when failed states are allowed to become breeding grounds for terrorism. Somalia, the wreck of a country on the Horn of Africa from which the evil, al-Qaidaaffiliated al-Shabab thugs responsible for the massacre emanate, has lacked stability since the regime of General Siad Barre, a Soviet toady, lost power in 1991. In the ensuing anarchy — with the international community unable and unwilling to do much — the worst forms of malevolent Islamic extremism have spawned and thrived, leading to the attack by the alShabab terrorists that claimed the lives of scores of people, including Tasmanian-born architect Ross Langdon and his pregnant wife, Elif Yavuz. Another 200 people were wounded. Kenya, which has 4,000 soldiers in Somalia as part of an African Union military force battling to restore security to Somalia, is the al-Shabab terrorists’ immediate target, but Nairobi needs help and the international community should be unhesitating in coming to its aid because the threat posed by the Somali terrorists could spread beyond Africa. Given the large Somali diaspora around the world, attacks could also be staged elsewhere. Such atrocities cannot be tolerated and the international community cannot turn a blind eye. It is to the credit of the African Union that it is leading the way in seeking to deal with al-Shabab, but far more than Africa’s interests are at stake in the battle. As the death toll in the Nairobi massacre again shows, Islamic terrorism threatens us all, and the international community must do all it can to confront it. Somalia’s chaos and the terrorism it has spawned as a failed state was allowed to fester for far too long. Guest Editorial The Australian

A look at innovation versus stagnation

Invent something and the first thing that goes through some people’s minds — especially politicians’ minds — is what might go wrong. 3D printers now allow you to mold objects right in your living room, using patterns you find online. It’s a revolutionary invention that will save time, reduce shipping costs and be kind to the Earth. But what critics see is: guns! People will print guns at home! Well, sure. On TV, Rachel Maddow sneered about “a well-armed anarchist utopia, where everybody fends for themselves with stupid-looking plastic

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’m a postmenopausal woman who suffers from urinary incontinence. I’ve just learned that my incontinence is due to pelvic organ prolapse. What does this mean? What is the treatment? DEAR READER: Pelvic organ prolapse is a condition in which tissue from the uterus, bladder, urethra or rectum drops down into the vagina. As many as one in three middle-aged women have some degree of pelvic organ prolapse. Mild prolapse usually doesn’t cause symptoms, but more advanced prolapse can. The most common are discomfort, heaviness or pressure. A woman can feel these sensations in her vaginal area, pelvis, lower abdomen, groin or lower back. With the most advanced prolapse, a woman notices a bulge of tissue protruding from her vagina. Prolapse can also cause pain during sex or an inability to have an orgasm.

move to ban things. In Texas, Cody Wilson used a 3D printer to make a plastic gun. He called it “the Liberator” and posted its specs on the Inter net. The State Department then ordered him to take the specs down. He did. But by then, 100,000 people had downloaded it. Wilson takes pride in pointing out how his gun shows that gun “control” is an illusion. Being able to print a gun in your own home will render laws against purchasing guns unenforceable and irrelevant. “I’m your full-service provocateur,” Wilson told Kennedy, my TV show’s correspondent.

ASK DR. K UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

You ask about incontinence. Along with a frequent urge to urinate, incontinence is common in women with pelvic organ prolapse. That’s because when the pelvic organs drop down from their normal position, they put pressure on the bladder and the tube (called the urethra) through which urine flows. This can increase the urge to urinate and reduce a woman’s control over when she urinates. Why do women get pelvic organ prolapse? Probably the most important fac-

“Here’s the printed gun. I’m not here to make you feel better about it. I’m here to say, ‘Look, this space is occupied. Deal with it.’” The “Liberator” didn’t work well. It broke before Kennedy could fire a shot. However, printed guns will improve over time. Wilson’s point: “prohibiting this is no longer effective.” Technological innovation constantly threatens centralized authorities. Now we take the Internet for granted, but when it first became popular, people worried that it would mainly be

tor is having given birth. Women who have given birth to four babies are 10 times more likely to develop prolapse than women who have never given birth. Especially when the birth has been a vaginal delivery, rather than a C-section, there is a chance that the muscles and tissues in the floor of the pelvis will be weakened. That predisposes a woman to prolapse in later years. Kegel exercises to strengthen pelvic floor muscles may be enough to control mild incontinence. To perform Kegels, squeeze the muscles you would use to hold back urine or to stop urinating midstream. Tighten these muscles and hold them tight for a few seconds. Repeat 10 times per session. Do approximately four sessions each day. Another treatment option is a pessary, which is a rubbery, ring-shaped device See DR. K, Page A5


Are you talking about your ethics or mine? OPINION II

Roswell Daily Record

Several years back when I was the New Mexico State Bar president I was speaking to a group of a few hundred lawyers at a conference and I asked the group the question, “How many of you in this room are unethical?” Not a hand went up. Good, I thought. I pulled up short of asking the next question, “How many of you in this r oom know an attorney who is unethical?” My guess is that almost every hand in the room would be raised. Maybe a better follow-up question would be, “How many of you in this room know an unethical attor ney who is in this room?” My guess is that there would be some hands that were raised, but not a forest of hands like the prior question. Now, I am picking on attorneys because I am one, but these questions could be asked of members of any profession. Each profession has good apples and bad apples. No profession is immune to unethical people entering into it. And each profession struggles with ethics. It is so much easier to talk about others’ ethics than to examine your own. My point is that we use different standards to measure others than we do to measure ourselves. This is an interesting paradox to me. Several years ago I bought a book by John Maxwell titled

used by terrorists, child molesters and moneylaunderers. “Smash the Internet!” said a cover story in the conservative magazine Weekly Standard, illustrated with a sledgehammer smashing a computer screen. Even today, after Google, Facebook, Wikipedia, eBay, Yelp, Craigslist, WebMD, YouTube and more have clearly made our lives better, Luddites in the media fret about problems. “The Internet Is Making Kids Stupid” says PC Magazine. CBS’s Bob Schieffer whines that in the absence of supervising editors, “ignorance travels as rapidly as great ideas.” There’s some truth behind these complaints. The Internet does make some people isolated. It does allow ignorant ideas to spread. But so what? It also creates new forms of human interaction and allows the crowd of users to correct ignorant mistakes. Schieffer is prematurely old, but even hip novelists like Dave Eggers and Jonathan Franzen worry about the Net. Eggers’ latest novel suggests it creates “unnaturally extreme” needs, and a Franzen essay attacks “technoconsumerism.” Comedian Louis CK gets laughs by worrying that cell phones just keep us distracted

that fits into the upper portion of your vagina. Pessaries can help prop up your uterus and bladder and prevent them from dropping into the vagina. (I’ve put an illustration of how a pessary helps to control pelvic organ prolapse on my website, AskDoctorK.com.) You may also consider surgery to repair the ligaments, or bands of fibrous tissue, in your pelvic area. Surgery helps to relieve symptoms and restore normal anatomy, bowel and bladder function, and the ability to have sex.

RICK KRAFT JUST A THOUGHT

“Ethics 101, What Every Leader Needs to Know.” The book is packed with good information regarding ethical issues. Many of the quotes in this column are from the small book. Dr. Maxwell states the problem is that ethics is never a business issue or a social issue or a political issue. It is always a personal issue. Amen! I agree w i t h D r. M a x w e l l , e t h i c s i s always a personal issue. Individuals who are ethical in their daily lives will likely be ethical at work or in other aspects of their lives. I have said many times, the way to improve any profession is to get good people to enter it. Much of the rest will take care of itself. But if bad people enter any profession, the profession’s bar will be lowered. Reprogramming bad people into good people once they have entered your profession is a very dif ficult task and can be next to impossible. It is interesting that people say they want integrity, but they don’t always act with integrity themselves. In the workplace 43 percent of people

— but not really happy or sad — until we die. He’d prefer his kids did not have them. They are right that any activity can become a time-waster, but to all the fearmongers I say, stop whining! Overwhelmingly, innovation brings us good things. It’s even changed the way Americans find love. A University of Chicago study says 35 percent of new marriages now start online. We don’t think twice about miracles like computer dating or email or the fact that, today, most everyone in the world has access to all the world’s knowledge on a little phone. We take it for granted that we can put a piece of plastic into a wall and cash will come out — and the count is always accurate. Government could not do that. Government can’t even count votes accurately. In a free market, a symphony of desires comes together, and they’re met by people who constantly rack their brains to provide better services and invent solutions to our desires. It’s not a few people desiring guns that I fear. It’s government getting in the way of all those new possibilities.

Why Government Fails, but Individuals Succeed.” © 2013 John Stossel For post-menopausal women, hysterectomy, the surgical removal of the uterus and sometimes the cervix, is the most common treatment. There’s some question about whether surgeons should also remove the ovaries of postmenopausal women during this procedure. If you’re considering a hysterectomy, ask your doctor about the individual risks and benefits of removing your ovaries. (Dr. Komaroff is a physician and professor at Harvard Medical School.

admit to having engaged in at least one unethical act in the last year and 75 percent have observed such an act and done nothing about it. Dr. Maxwell shares, “The same person who cheats on his taxes or steals office supplies wants honesty and integrity from the corporation whose stock he buys, the politician he votes for, and the client he deals with in his own business.” We are moving into the field of judging others. My favorite concept on judging others is “ We j u d g e o t h e r s b y t h e i r actions, we judge ourselves by our intentions.” These are two vastly different scales: others and ourselves. Hence the question, “Ar e you talking about your ethics or mine?” There are many definitions of ethics. I like the definition by The Josephson Institute of Ethics, “Ethics is about how we meet the challenge of doing the right thing when that will cost more than we want to pay.” I remember a law school professor telling our class one day, “Anyone can be ethical for a dime!” His point was well made. I guess the true test of ethics would be when a large reward lays in front of you and you get to elect whether to step over the ethics line and take the reward or to hold firm to solid ethics and pass the reward by. D r. M a x w e l l i n h i s b o o k writes, “I believe there are two paths to achievement a person

can choose. You can go for the gold, or you can go for the golden rule.” The core of his book is that the ultimate test for ethics is the golden rule. It doesn’t matter in what country you live or what profession you are in, if you always do unto others what you would want done unto you, you will be an ethical person. Jim Blanchard said, “If we had only one rule in this company, it would be the golden rule. If we’ve got that one right, no other rules are necessary.” How do we lear n ethics? It begins with the family you grow up in. I know many parents who did not truly feel accountable for their actions until they had little eyes watching them. Having children sheds a whole new light on the world. I also think that we transpose who we are on others. For example, hurting people hurt people. Or people with good attitudes are apt to see people they interact with as having good attitudes. In other words, I think people who are unethical are more likely to look for and accuse others of being unethical. That is just the way they see the world. I like this quote from Wolf J. Rinke, “If you mistrust your employees, you’ll be right 3 percent of the time. If you trust people until they give you a reason not to, you’ll be right 97 percent of the time.” Your world view is imposed on others. Dr. Maxwell says, “There are

really only two important points when it comes to ethics. The first is a standard to follow. The second is the will to follow it.” I have to believe that the average person out there knows right from wrong and knows what is ethical from what is not. Although two people can argue over exactly where the line of ethics falls, I think most everyone has a line they don’t believe they should cross. I think the struggle we have as humans is the will or the discipline to follow ethical practices. With knowledge of what is ethical and the will to make ethical decisions, success in our daily lives will follow. My challenge to you today is to make ethical decisions in each decision you make. You can’t change any of the past ethical dilemmas you have experienced, but you will have countless ethical decisions ahead. I believe you can distinguish between what is ethical and what isn’t. When you come to the crossroads on an ethical issue, my prayer for you is that you have the discipline and will to make the right decision. Just a thought ...

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Re: “In defense of Kintigh”

Dear Editor, In a rebuttal published in Tuesday, September 10’s Daily Record Mr. Greg Neil, who views himself as local political king maker, disputes my statements on Denis Kintigh’s address to a Veterans Dinner. Mr. Neil is correct in that I was not in attendance, however many veteran friends of mine were. Their reaction to Mr. Kintigh’s remarks were shocking, so much so they made a point to inform me and asked me to share. Each recounted the same story. Even some of Mr. Kintigh’s political allies were amazed at his message and told me that he is a “one issue” candidate. Mr. Neil in the past had attached himself to the Jurney administration but was sidelined when he over stepped his reach. Evidently he feels that will not be an issue in a Kintigh administration. If Mr. Neil wants to make policy for the City of Roswell, I suggest he throw his hat into the ring and let the citizens of Roswell decide if he is electable. In Mr. Hudson Boue’s letter, of the same date, he makes a few arguably factual points, however he tries to tie Mayor Jurney to me, because of my support of the 1⁄8 of 1 percent GR T initiative on the last municipal ballot. He sites growth in other SE New Mexico cities during the same period. What he neglects to mention is that most of the communities he named voted for increases in their Gross Receipts Tax to help spur their economic growth. In fact the Roswell plan was modeled after the Clovis plan. Mr. Boue is quick to point out that I’m the chairman of the Chaves County Democrats. Well that I am Mr Boue, and a proud Democrat at that. Since both Mayor Jurney and Denis Kintigh are Republican, I don’t have a horse in this race... yet. My letter was based on my personal Christian convictions and not as the Democratic Party Chair. The Democratic Party of Chaves County does not endorse my opinions nor would I make statements on their behalf without prior approval of our executive committee. Mr. Boue has also confused my plea for common sense with a plea for leniency for people with substance abuse problems. I would be no less lenient with people who suffer from any other treatable medical illness. The U.S. incarcerates 25 percent of the world’s prisoners but has less than 5 percent of the world’s population. As of late we have taken to privatizing the prison system here in the U.S. Private prisons are like hotels, they profit only when the rooms are full. An estimated cost to tax payers of keeping a person in prison is approximately $100,000 per year. Is this the way we want to spend our tax dollars? Those individuals do not leave prison rehabilitated, so essentially we are subsidizing their education in “how to become better criminals.” One hundred thousand dollars would go a long way to help individuals who have committed non-violent crimes, become productive citizens if they were sent to mandatory rehab and trained in a skill that would enable them to earn a living rather than marking them as a felon which virtually assures little or no employment prospects and perpetuates the cycle of in

and out of jail. Mr. Boue states in his letter “Roswell has an anemic program to persuade businesses to locate here.” The reasons, companies are less than eager to locate here is that; The workforce is unskilled. The cost of transportation is high. Poor infrastructure in the industrial zones. Their key management personnel refuse to relocate here for reasons such as, the poor quality of education for their children, the lack of access to major hubs, etc. These are the issues that city and county governments need to address if we really aspire to growth in this community. Republican or Democrat, Roswell needs leaders who understand business, who can rally and unite people of all cultural, socioeconomic and political backgrounds to enhance the quality of life for everyone in our community. In the 22 years I’ve made Roswell my home, I’ve witnessed almost every major employer leave this town. All of this under the leadership of myopic administrations. It’s time to put aside the political posturing and develop a real and sustainable plan for economic growth in Roswell. Sincerely, Fred Moran Private Citizen Roswell

The perks of solar energy

Dear Editor, I read with some interest Ms. Marita Noons’ column on solar energy. She condemns the practice of people who invest in solar being paid for the power they sell back to the power companies. She does not mention the cost to the individual who has it installed or the long time it takes to get a small part of their investment back. These programs are in place to encourage people to generate electricity to help reduce the carbon content in our atmosphere. Global warming is a serious threat to the future of the planet and should be addressed much more aggressively. One area here in the U.S. and Canada is ignored: Glacier National Park, Montana. By 2020, the name will have to be changed. Of the 150 glaciers in the park some years ago, only 25 are left. Coal-fired power plants are the worst CO2 producers and should be replaced with other power sources. China is even doing that while we do everything to NOT change. We are consuming far too much fossil fuel and brag about our oil sales. Oil is a finite resource and we do not produce it, we mine it and it is absolutely necessary to modern living. The products we make with it are a huge part of our economy and when the oil is gone what will we do? Solar and wind technology help alleviate that and global warming. I am an old man and these problems will not affect me too badly yet, but what about the younger people? the next generation? Shouldn’t we educate them and encourage them to clean up the planet and the atmosphere?

Coming soon: a Forum and a Prescription Takeback Roswell Daily Record

STEVE WOLFE ROSWELL SAFE COALITION

The Forum: On Tuesday, Oct. 1, the Roswell SAFE Coalition will be presenting the fourth in our series of public forums. That’s just two days from now and those of us who are involved in the coalition are very much looking forward to it! We are convinced that the public will be pleased as well. “Today’s Criminal Trends. Protect Yourself Now” is what we’ve entitled this forum, which will be held at the Bondurant Room of the Roswell Public Library on Tuesday at 6 p.m. An officer of the New Mexico State Police will be presenting this topic. We appreciate Sgt. Jay Blakeney of the local NMSP office for his work in making this happen.

It’s an interesting criminal world, it seems to me. While I am only on the fringes of it through activities of the Neighborhood Watch and of the Chaves County Crime Stoppers, I continue to be surprised at things I learn. These people who steal from the rest of us are no dummies! They know about technology and they know how it can be used to their advantage. What we have come to

know as “social media” is a definite tool of the criminal trade, as is the computer world in general. Facebook, for example, can be a wonderful place to learn about people’s travel plans. We may want to shout to the world how excited we are about that trip to the Bahamas next week, but as soon as we do so, we have provided a target and a time frame for a burglar. This is only one of hundreds of opportunities that our technology can give to criminals. Identity Theft is another of the devastating crimes thrust upon victims in today’s world. We cannot ever let our guard down on the phone or on the internet. As soon as we give key personal information to a caller, we have enabled him or her to take what we have. It’s frightening, huh? I’m sure that the State Police

Remember, Roswell Public Library on Tuesday, Oct. 1, at 6 p.m. The Takeback: For the sixth time since April of 2011, we here in the Neighborhood Watch office are delighted to give the community an opportunity to get rid of expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs. This will occur on Saturday, Oct. 26, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. Sponsored nationally by the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) and in association with our local law enforcement

agencies, this program has been enormously successful here in Roswell. To date, we have collected 902 pounds of these drugs! Believe me, that’s a lot of little pill bottles! Unused prescription drugs should not be simply thrown in the trash, nor should they be flushed down the toilet. In the trash, they can be retrieved and abused. In the toilet, they can contaminate the water supply. This is a wonderful chance to destroy these potentially dangerous drugs, legally and safe for the environment. Save the date! Bring your unwanted prescription drugs to 426 North Main Street (the Historic Old Conoco building at fifth and Main). If you would like more infor mation, please call 6227233.

New foundation board created to aid the Yucca Center In order to continue the work of the Yucca Recreation Center, a group of Roswellites have met over the past few months to create a supporting Foundation. The Board, along with the advice of Cuic Gonzales, the center’s director, and with the approval of the mayor, formed a Foundation Board Sept. 12 to assist financially and to meet some of the needs of the Yucca Recreation Center. The Foundation Board consists of 11 members. At the last meeting officers were elected, President Roger K. Burnett, Vice President Melinda Robson, Sec/Trea Nicola Baily and the following eight board members, Tracy Mumford, Dr. Warren McKelvy, Clyde McKee, Dora Paz, Patricia Burnett, Carol Himanga, Bonnie Talbot and Cheryl Saavedra. Also at the meeting the Yucca Center Foundation Board developed a mission statement, constructed bylaws, and has applied for a 501c3. Although the center is financed by the City of Roswell, there are some expenses the city simply cannot cover. The goals of the Foundation are to secure funding for student scholarships and recreational fees so more children can participate in the Yucca’s activities, to secure funds to upgrade the building and repairs, to assist with securing funding for equipment

RICHTER PIECE SELLS

NEW YORK (AP) — An oil painting by Ger man abstract artist Gerhard Richter from Eric Clapton’s collection is heading for a New York City auction. Christie’s auction house says “Abstraktes Bild” is estimated to sell for $20 million to $25 million on Nov. 12. It says the English guitarist and songwriter bought the painting at auction in 2001. The large oil painting was executed in 1994. It has a rich palette of red, purple, violet and yellow evocative of a fall landscape. Richter’s “Domplatz, Mailand” set a record for any living artist at auction in May when it sold at Sotheby’s for $37 million.

GRANT HELPS KIDS

ROSWELL—Easter n New Mexico UniversityRoswell recently received a generous grant from Xcel Energy Foundation. The Foundation helps build stronger communities through focus area grants in arts and culture, community development, education, and the environment. ENMU-Roswell received $5,000 for its Kids’ Kollege program. The program was offered July 29-Aug. 2.

NMMI BRONCOS 23 SNOW BADGERS 20

EPHRAIM, Utah — Snow hadn’t lost to New Mexico Military Institute since 1975. Until Saturday that is. Quinn Billerman hit Delvon Carpenter for a 13-yard touchdown in overtime and the Broncos beat Snow 23-20 for their fourth straight Western States Football League win. The Institute (5-1, 4-1 WSFL) had to hold off a late rally by the Badgers, who scored 10 fourthquarter points to force an extra stanza. On Snow’s overtime possession, the Badgers pushed the ball to NMMI 4, but a third-down pass from Crosby Jensen fell incomplete. Spencer Groner kicked a 21yard field goal after that to give Snow its first and only lead of the day, 20-17. On NMMI’s possession, Billerman hit Leslie Young with a 17yard aerial down to the Snow 8 on the second play. After a false start pushed the ball back to the 13, Billerman

hit Carpenter for the game-winning score to snap Snow’s 38year unbeaten streak against the Broncos. NMMI had built a 17-7 lead through the opening three quarters at Robert L. Stoddard Field thanks to a pair of Billerman TD passes. Billerman hit Zach White with 3:49 left in the first for a 54-yard aerial score, but Snow tied it at 7 with 10:29 left in the second on a 15-yard run by Louis Hamilton. NMMI took the lead back late in the second when Billerman and Carpenter hooked up for a 61-yard score. Hunter Heck’s 21-yard field goal with 6:38 left in the third made it 17-7. In the fourth, Jensen hit Chase Loftin for a 20-yard TD with 4:05 left to draw the Badgers within 17-14. NMMI had a chance ice the See BRONCOS, Page B3

ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Two out of three ain’t bad. Georgia is certainly not complaining. Aaron Murray threw four touchdown passes, including a 25-yarder to Justin Scott-Wesley with 1:47 remaining, and the No. 9 Bulldogs rallied to beat No. 6 LSU 44-41 in a thrilling game between Southeastern Conference powerhouses Saturday. The Bulldogs (3-1, 2-0 SEC) completed their opening-month run through a gauntlet of top teams with a victory that propelled them back into the thick of the national championship race. “We’ve played some hard teams,” Scott-Wesley said. “It just shows we’re a great team. We can handle anything anybody throws at us.” Georgia was only the fourth team since the BCS began in 1998 to face three top 10 teams in the first four games of a season. The Bulldogs opened with a 3835 non-conference loss to Clemson, but came back to beat South Carolina 41-30 and now the Tigers. “We’ve grown up a lot this past month,” Murray

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Joe Nathan feels like the Texas Rangers have been playing elimination games for a week. Now they are down to the regular season’s scheduled finale, still with a chance to get into the playoffs for the fourth year in a row. A rain-drenched Nathan struck out Howie Kendrick with two runners on and the infield flooding to close out the Rangers’ sixth straight victory, and second in less than 24 hours. They beat the sloppy Los Angeles Angels 7-4 on Saturday. “It doesn’t change what we need to do, we need to come in and win a game tomorrow,” Nathan said. “We don’t want to have to rely on somebody to help us all the time.” They did get some help Saturday when Tampa Bay lost at Toronto, dropping the Rays (90-71) into a tie with the Rangers for the AL’s second wild-card spot. Cleveland (91-70) won its ninth consecutive game, winning at Minnesota to hold the top wild card by a game and ensure the Indians will play past Sunday.

AJ McCarron completed 25 of 32 passes for 180 yards with an interception for Alabama, which came in ranked last in the league in rushing. Alabama was held to 36 rushing yards in building a 9-0 halftime lead but gained another 218 on the ground in the second half. Bo Wallace was 17-of-30 passing for 159 yards for the Rebels. The Rebels’ fast-paced offense came in averaging 38 points and 490 yards, but never got going and managed just 46 yards on 25 rushes.

ACC. Not saying we wanted to lose. Don’t get me wrong. But this is huge.” LSU (4-1, 1-1) got a career -best 372 yards passing from former Georgia quarterback Zach Mettenberger in his return to Athens, and the Tigers went ahead 41-37 on Jeremy Hill’s 8yard touchdown run with 4:14 to go. But that was plenty of time for Murray and the high-powered Bulldogs on a day when neither defense had much success. He completed three straight passes to quickly move the Bulldogs into LSU territory, and freshman J.J. Green broke off an 18yard run to the Tigers’ 25. Then it was Scott-Wesley, breaking wide open behind the secondary to haul in a pass and tiptoe just inside the pylon for the winning score. “We have a long road ahead of us to get back to the top,” Mettenberger said. “We have to win out.” Murray ran for Georgia’s other touchdown on a sneak and finished with 298 yards passing. “We all know your quarterback has to play well to win a game like this,” Richt said. “Aaron was phenomenal, gutsy, tremendous.” Murray and Mettenberger were in the same recruiting class at Georgia, contending for the starting job in the spring of 2010.

Jensen then engineered an eight-play, 39yard drive to set up Groner’s 45-yard field goal with 3 seconds left that tied the game at 17.

Mettenberger pleaded guilty to misdemeanor sexual battery charges after an incident in a bar and was kicked off the team.

could be expected of them. Mettenberger had three touchdowns on 23-of-37 passing, continually burning the Bulldogs on third down. He completed a 25-yard pass on Odell Beckham on third-and-22 to improbably extend an LSU drive that led to Hill’s go-ahead touchdown. Chris Conley had five catches for 112 yards and a touchdown. Michael Bennett hauled in a pair of scoring passes. Georgia finished with 494 yards, though the bulk of those came in a back-and-forth first half that ended with Georgia on top 24-17.

said. “Texas made four errors in one inning and overcame it.” The Rangers opened the series with that fourerror inning Thursday but won on rookie Jurickson Profar’s gameending homer. Nathan was the winner after pitching the ninth of that game and saved the last two. With 43 saves in 46 chances, Nathan said he is ready to go again if needed. If the Rangers win the final game Sunday, they will be guaranteed at least a wild-card tiebreaker. The 11:07 a.m. start was the earliest home game in the 42 seasons the Rangers have played in Texas — the game was moved up eight hours because of the threat of bad weather. The game was played mostly under overcast

skies, and there were quick showers while the Rangers batted in the first and fifth innings without any delays. It was a downpour in the ninth after Nathan got two quick outs before Josh Hamilton had a pinch double and Mike Trout walked. “I was saying we’ve got to stop this game,” Rangers manager Ron Washington said. “The guys standing on the infield, if a ball is hit to them, I can’t see them throwing it across the infield. But we didn’t have to worry about that because Joe got him out.’ Nathan described it as “basically a lake out there.” Joakim Soria (1-0) got his first major league victory since July 23, 2011, striking out two in 1 1⁄3 scoreless innings in relief of Derek Holland. Robbie Ross and Tanner Scheppers each worked a scoreless inning before Nathan took over.

NFL: With a win, Bears could take charge of division Roswell Daily Record

First place in the NFC North is at stake Sunday, and the Green Bay Packers will be nowhere in the vicinity. Instead, it’s the Bears, one of seven 3-0 teams, against the Lions at Ford Field. A victory for Chicago would give it a stranglehold on the division through one-fourth of the schedule. The Bears have been impressive under new coach Marc Trestman, showing a knack for clutch plays on both sides of the ball. They have a league-high 11 takeaways, are making good decisions, and Devin Hester is averaging 38 yards a kickof f return. But they also have some injuries, with defensive end Henry Melton (knee) gone for the season and star cornerback Charles Tillman hobbled but saying he will play. Tillman normally would match up with the Lions’ top threat, receiver Calvin Johnson. “He’s a big, strong, physical corner,” Johnson said of Tillman. “He’s smart. He’s seen a lot of football, so he understands some of the concepts probably that we do on offense, so we’ve got to throw different things at him to get him off balance.” Detroit (2-1) is winning the close ones — the Lions have outscored the opposition by only 13 points. Their passing attack is second in the league, but just lost a key piece when receiver Nate Burleson was injured in a car accident. The Lions got some good news: Running back Reggie Bush has recovered from the left knee injury that sidelined him in last week’s win over Washington. “He’s a very valuable part of our of fense and he af fects the way defenses play us,” coach Jim Schwartz said. “If we can get him back on the field, that will be a big plus for us.” Week 4 began with San Francisco’s 35-11 rout of St. Louis in which the 49ers (2-2) had five sacks, limited the Rams (1-3) to 18 yards on the ground and got 153 yards rushing and a touchdown from Frank Gore. On Sunday, it’s New England at Atlanta, Seattle at Houston, Pitts-

burgh vs. Minnesota in London, the New York Jets at Tennessee, Philadelphia at Denver, Dallas at San Diego, the New York Giants at Kansas City, Cincinnati at Cleveland, Baltimore at Buffalo, Indianapolis at Jacksonville, Washington at Oakland, and Arizona at Tampa Bay. Monday night’s matchup has Miami at New Orleans. Off this week are Green Bay and Carolina, both 1-2.

Miami (3-0) at New Orleans (3-0), MNF Sean Payton’s return to the sideline has made a world of difference in the Big Easy, and his hiring of Rob Ryan to run the defense so far has been a stroke of genius. The Saints rank fourth in overall defense, almost unheard-of territory in New Orleans. “Any time you go into a situation where it’s a new defensive coordinator that’s installing a new defense, you always have the question of how you’re prepared,” said outside linebacker Parys Haralson, acquired from San Francisco in late August. “Everybody was pretty confident in what they had, in what we have here. This is a defense full of talented players.” The Dolphins got the first comeback victory of second-year quarterback R yan Tannehill’s career last Sunday.

New England (3-0) at Atlanta (1-2) A pretty strong Sunday nighter, even with Atlanta’s early-season struggles. The Falcons need to get healthy as much as anything, and find ways to stop the pass. That, of course, is essential against Tom Brady, whose receiving corps looked far more professional in the romp past Tampa Bay than in the first two wins. Seattle (3-0) at Houston (2-1) Under Pete Carroll, the Seahawks have been dominant at home, but mediocre on the road. They began turning that around late last season, and this would be a statement win.

Carroll brings the NFL’s stingiest defense, particularly against the pass, into Reliant Stadium. Houston also has a rugged D, but the Texans got pushed around by Baltimore last week and have yet to make their own statement as a power.

Pittsburgh (0-3) vs. Minnesota (0-3), at London Wembley Stadium has been sold out for months, and there will be three big stars on the field: Pittsburgh’s T roy Polamalu and Ben Roethlisberger, Minnesota’s Adrian Peterson, the leagues reigning MVP. With the way both sides have performed so far, it might be a better idea to tour Buckingham Palace or the Tower of London. Pity the loser having to stew at 0-4 on the long plane ride back home, then stew some more with an upcoming bye week. New York Jets (2-1) at Tennessee (2-1) Rex R yan and Mike Munchak entered the season with tenuous job security. As each team has gotten off to decent starts, the heat has subsided a bit, and this is a better matchup than previously expected. Although the Jets got a gift win in the opener against Tampa, they came close in New England to upsetting the Patriots. They are far too sloppy, especially with penalties, but, as usual, R yan has a solid, physical defense. The Titans needed a long TD pass with 15 seconds remaining to rally past San Diego. But they have shown vast improvement on defense and have not turned over the ball.

Philadelphia (1-2) at Denver (3-0) Don’t believe Peyton Manning is losing any sleep over this one. Manning runs an offense so potent it looks unstoppable, and the Eagles can’t tackle in the open field and aren’t much in pass coverage. The game is in the Mile High City, where the Eagles’ fast-paced attack could run out of breath less than a halfmile in.

Sunday, September 29, 2013

Philly’s best hope is through the air; Denver ranks first in ground defense.

Dallas (2-1) at San Diego (1-2) Two teams difficult to get a handle on. Dallas looked excellent last week against St. Louis and has won both its home games. But it frittered away plenty of chances to win at Kansas City in Week 2. The Cowboys’ defense, sparked by end DeMarcus Ware and linebacker Sean Lee, could decide this one. San Diego has trouble closing out games. All three have been down-tothe-wire affairs, and the Chargers allowed Houston’s big rally in the opener, then Jake Locker’s late TD pass last week.

New York Giants (0-3) at Kansas City (3-0) If Eli Manning thinks last Sunday’s seven-sack barrage was ugly in Carolina, well, the Chiefs lead the league in taking down quarterbacks and have a better all-around defense than the Panthers. The Giants, whose offensive line is banged-up, must find a running game; might be time for coach Tom Coughlin to swallow hard and give mercurial (and fumbleprone) David Wilson the ball. After Andy Reid’s successful return to Philadelphia, the Chiefs lead the NFL with a plus-9 turnover differential. They have yet to have a giveaway.

Cincinnati (2-1) at Cleveland (1-2) The Ohio faceoff got some added luster when the Bengals beat Green Bay and the Browns stunned Minnesota. Still, Cincinnati is in far better shape and has the look of a contender. There’s big-play capability on both sides of the ball, with playmakers like WR A.J. Green and rookie RB Gio Bernard on offense, Geno Atkins and Reggie Nelson on defense. Cleveland came to life after the stunning trade of Trent Richardson. The Browns’ defense is solid, and their offense was impressive at Min-

nesota behind journeyman QB Brian Hoyer and tight end Jordan Cameron.

Baltimore (2-1) at Buffalo (1-2) After two weak showings, the Ravens looked much more like champions in manhandling Houston last week. There’s hope Ray Rice can return to the backfield from his hip flexor. Baltimore could use a spark for its offense. Buffalo is dealing with the growing pains of a rookie QB, EJ Manuel, and a defense that can’t stop the run. It couldn’t grab a victory last Sunday when the Jets seemed willing to hand one over.

Indianapolis (2-1) at Jacksonville (0-3) Coming off their huge win at San Francisco, the Colts need to remain sharp — although a lesser performance still should be enough to beat the undermanned Jaguars. Indy will have RB T rent Richardson more indoctrinated in the offense after a full week of practice. Jacksonville gets back starting QB Blaine Gabbert for an offense that has produced a mere three TDs.

Washington (0-3) at Oakland (1-2) If the Redskins can’t get off the schneid against the Raiders, some changes might be in order. It’s difficult being patient waiting for Robert Griffin III to return to full fitness, or for the league’s worst defense statistically to turn it around. Oakland is dealing with QB Terrelle Pryor’s concussion, and all the bruises physically and emotionally from that Monday night rout at the hands of the Broncos.

Arizona (1-2) at Tampa Bay (0-3) Some members of the Cardinals must smirk about Tampa Bay’s unstable QB situation given how Arizona went through four of them last year, none productive. Now, the Cardinals have a veteran passer with credentials in Carson Palmer, and the Bucs are going with rookie Mike Glennon over benched Josh Freeman.

NATION

Farm workers urged to protect hearing INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Far from the clatter of cities, the nation’s farmers are assaulted every day by the earsplitting squeals of hundreds of hogs, the roar of tractors and the incessant whine of grain dryers during the fall harvest. An estimated one-third of the nation’s three million far mers have some level of hearing loss caused by their inner ears’ daily bombardment from sounds that can rival a rock concert’s sonic impact. Even farmers still in their 20s can end up with the muffled hearing of someone in middle age if they fail to protect their hearing. “You just can’t get away from the machinery. We’re driving those tractors and they’re so goddamn loud,” said Tom Duerst, a 55year-old Wisconsin dairy farmer with partial hearing loss he attributes to

far m noises he was exposed to in his youth. Many far mers are on their own when recognizing their elevated risk of hearing loss, because only the largest U.S. far ms operate under federal workplace safety regulations. Though the risks have been known for decades, only more recently have nonprofits, university researchers and federal agencies focused on trying to educate farmers and their children how to avoid hearing loss by wearing sound-cutting earmuffs or ear plugs. Design changes in farm machinery, such as tractors, has made some equipment run quieter, but many still use older, noisier models. And livestock — such as hogs and chickens — packed into bar ns still produce the same cacophony of noises; a squealing hog, for exam-

Radio problems cited in Prescott firefighter deaths

PRESCOTT, Ariz. (AP) — A three-month investigation into the June deaths of 19 Arizona firefighters found that the men ceased radio communication for a half hour before they were killed in a wildfire blaze, but did not assign fault. Some family members say that reluctance could put other lives in danger. The 120-page report released Saturday found that proper procedure was followed in the worst firefighting tragedy since Sept. 11, 2001. Investigators suggested that the state of Arizona should possibly update its guidelines and look into better tracking technology. All but one member of the Granite Mountain Hotshots crew died June 30 while protecting the small former gold rush town of Yar nell, about 80 miles northwest of Phoenix, from an erratic, lightningsparked wildfire. Hotshots are elite backcountry firefighters who hike deep into the brush to fight blazes. While maintaining a neutral tone, the investigation cited badly programmed radios, vague updates, and a 33-minute communication blackout while the men hiked out of their safe zone to the spot where they would eventually be overcome by the fire. Though

the report points to multiple failures, investigators did not consider whether the deaths could have been avoided, raising questions about what lessons firefighters will be able to take from the tragedy. At a news conference in Prescott, where the fallen firefighters lived, Shari Turbyfill implored officials to draw stronger conclusions about why her stepson and his comrades died, and recommend immediate changes. “Your protection of us is killing us,” she said. “We’re willing to take the heat right now, but I don’t want another family to deal with this.” Her husband, David, said the command center should never have lost track of his 27-year -old son, Travis. “You have to look at communications and GPS devices,” he said. The report, produced by a team of local, state and federal fire experts, provides the first minute-tominute account of the fatal afternoon. The day went according to routine in the boulder-strewn mountains until the wind shifted around 4 p.m., pushing a wall of fire that had been receding from the firefighters all day back toward them.

ple, can be as loud as a running snowmobile. To nudge far mers to protect themselves, farm extension service educators often highlight sobering noise-impact facts at trade shows or conventions. And 4-H programs and some Future Farmers of America chapters use online resources to urge the next generation to wear earmuffs or ear plugs to ward off noises such as operating a tractor without a cab — which can damage hearing in only 15 minutes without protection. Duerst recalls spending hours as a youth around rumbling tractor engines and loud milking machines on the 500-acre dairy far m he now coowns near Madison, Wis. “That was just normal when you were a kid. That was just life,” he said. He is certain now those noises

are the cause of his partial hearing loss. In his late 20s, Duerst began using ear muf fs during clay pigeon shoots. He realized the same equipment could protect his hearing when he operated an open-cab tractor. Now, all of the

far m’s tractors ar e equipped with headphones that are permanently attached by cords for convenience — and as a constant reminder to use them. Grain far mer Charles Schmitt, a 63-year -old who far ms mor e than

2,000 acres of corn and soybeans near the southwestern Indiana town of Haubstadt, said he also suffered hearing loss in his youth from exposure to tractors and other noises. He’s worn protection for about five years, as does his son.

On the outside, it’s an unremarkable building; nothing about its facade distinguishes it to motorists as they briefly stop at the four-way stop sign on Alameda Street and Richardson Avenue. On the inside, it’s an absolute treasure trove of historical and genealogical information. Its walls are lined with books, periodicals, maps, census records and funeral records, just to name a few of its offerings. Additionally, a computer lab with free access to genealogical websites helps the Wilson-Cobb History & Genealogy Research Library not only remain up-to-date with what the digital world has to offer, but also assures its visitors that regardless of where their ancestors came from, the library can help with their genealogical research. Host of an annual genealogical workshop that brings expert speakers who may not come to Roswell otherwise, the research library will soon present Curt B. Witcher, senior manager for Special Collections at the Allen County Public Library in Fort Wayne, Ind. Through an all-day series of presentations collectively titled, “Mining the Mother Lode: Overlooked Genealogical Resources,” Witcher will offer helpful information for everyone, from research beginners to seasoned genealogical buffs. The event will take place at the Roswell Convention Center, 912 N. Main St., on Oct. 12, with registration at 8 a.m., introductions and announcements at 9 a.m. and the first presentation kicking off at 9:15 a.m. The day of the workshop is marked by “goodie bag” gifts for attendees; also, breakfast, lunch and snacks will be provided. Books and Things, the largest genealogical book vendor of the American Southwest, will be at the workshop with a large sample of works. The cost to attend the workshop is $40 for research library members and $45 for those who are non-members. Although attendees may register up until the day of the event, early registration is encouraged, as the cost to do so is bumped up to $50 after Oct. 5. Steadily growing thanks to large donations of books and other informative material, the WilsonCobb History & Genealogy Research Library, 301 S. Richardson Ave., is home to more than 6,000 books, about 8,000 periodicals, microfilm, microfiche, CDs, maps, and census records from various time spans and U.S. states. Its computer lab offers free access to genealogical websites such as ancestry.com, fold3.com, which specializes in military records, and genealogybank.com. Since the research library subscribes to these sites guests may access them for free; the only charge would be if someone were to make copies, which are $.15 each. Also helpful is the staff of the Wilson-Cobb History & Genealogy Research Library, who not only know the material at hand, but have years of genealogical research under their proverbial belts. “Genealogy is a journey, not a project,” said Kay Lewis, second vice president of the research library Board, as she shared a quote from an unknown source. “Come on, use the right word. It’s an addiction,” joked Pat Balok, librarian and president of the research library, inciting a ripple of laughter from those who assist at the library. Quick to admit she always collects things, Lewis said she often comes across quotes that relate to genealogy, and the ones she likes, she keeps. The quotes are small consolations along an arduous, uneven path — although hardcore genealogists may suddenly come across a “mother lode” of information pertaining to one long-lost ancestor, they may go long stretches of time without finding anything. Through it all, library staff is able to help, and are available during library hours from 1-4 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. “We are more than happy to show (visitors) how everything works,” Lewis said. She said often visitors come in knowing just a bit about an ancestor and, before they know it, this small hint opens up an entire world. “Anybody (can) come in and start from scratch,” Lewis said. “They’ll find a whole lot.” For more information about the Wilson-Cobb History & Genealogy Research Library, call 6223322 during office hours. vistas@rdrnews.com

Son’s graduation brings up old family tensions

Q: I’ve never gotten along with my in-laws. Three years ago, there was a huge argument and we haven’t spoken since. At that time, they told my wife they’d pay for a divorce if she would end the marriage. Now my son is graduating and he wants my in-laws to be there. I want to forgive and get along for the sake of my son, but I’m just so angry. What should I do? Jim: Situations like this one are extremely common. In home after home, family gatherings that are supposed to be filled with love and warmth end up turning into tense, uncomfortable confrontations. But “extremely common” isn’t the same thing as “unavoidable.” You’re an intelligent and morally responsible human being, and you can make choices that will lead to positive change. One option is to be honest. Let your son know that it would simply be too awkward and uncomfortable to invite the in-laws, and that for his sake, you don’t want

the graduation to tur n into a family debacle. Naturally, you and your son (not to mention your wife) will have to be in agreement on this. A second choice would be to invite them, but ensure that all graduation-related activities take place at a neutral location, such as a restaurant or community center. If the party disintegrates into a shouting match, politely excuse yourselves and take refuge in the tranquility of your home. There is a third option. You could approach the graduation with an entirely different attitude.

Try to see it as a time for reaching out in kindness and grace. Look for opportunities to demonstrate love to some unlovely people. Take the initiative to extend an olive branch. You might be surprised at how well your peacemaking gesture is received! Q: My wife doesn’t communicate well with me. I work long hours, and when I get home I want her to fill me in on what is going on in the family. I try to make time so we can talk about any issues, but she always just tells me everything is fine and then later I find out things that I never knew about. How can I improve our communication with each other? Dr. Greg Smalley, vice president, Family Ministries: In many cases it’s the other way around — the wife wants a deeper connection, while the husband is uncommunicative. But in either case, the frustrations are very real. To encourage more meaningful

communication, ask your wife if she’d be willing to try the “TenMinute Plan.” Three times a week, you’ll spend four minutes reading a recommended marriage book together. After that, take four additional minutes to have a positive discussion about what you’ve read (no criticism allowed). Then, finish with a two-minute prayer. In addition to trying the TenMinute Plan, keep the following in mind: — Communicate your need for conversation in a clear, respectful and honest way. Don’t assume your wife knows what you’re thinking. — Be sure to take notice when your wife does make an effort to talk with you. Reinforce this behavior by expressing your appreciation with sincerity and kindness. — Look for opportunities to turn routine activities — shopping, cooking or yard work, for example — into times of mean-

Wonder bread returning to shelves

NEW YORK (AP) — Wonder bread is back almost a year after it vanished from shelves. Flowers Foods Inc., which bought Wonder from the now-defunct Hostess Brands, said the bread started returning to supermarket shelves Monday. The company, which also makes Tastykake and Nature’s Own bread, snapped up five bread brands after Hostess went out of business late last year. The $355 million deal included Butternut, Home Pride and Merita, which are all returning to shelves along with Wonder. Keith Aldredge, vice president of marketing at Flowers Foods, said the company is still deciding the fate of the Nature’s Pride bread brand, which was also acquired from Hostess. The demise of Hostess Brands, which had been troubled by years of management turmoil, sparked an outpouring of nostalgia for treats such as Twinkies, Ding Dongs and Ho Hos. Soon after the company said it was shutting down its factories last November, people headed to shelves and wiped out supplies of Twinkies and other cakes. Flowers is apparently hoping to tap into that nostalgia. Aldredge said the company decided to go back to retro packaging for the relaunch of Wonder bread. He also said Flowers decided to use a Wonder recipe from “an earlier time,” although he could not provide details on what that meant or how the bread would be different from what was on shelves most recently. Despite the nostalgia certain brands may evoke, it’s not unusual for companies to tweak recipes and ingredients over time. The Twinkies on shelves today, for example, have a shelf life of about 45 days, which is nearly three weeks longer than a year ago. Flowers said Wonder bread is being made at that company’s existing plants. The 20 Hostess plants the company acquired as part of the deal were closed, Aldredge said. The bread is being distributed in the areas where Flowers currently distributes its products, with hopes of expanding over time. Flowers Foods, which based in Thomasville, Ga., said it reaches about three-quarters of the country.

Powdery mildew — Is the fruit still safe to eat? Roswell Daily Record

Sunday, September 29, 2013

Q. Is it safe to eat apples that were harvested from a backyard tree with powdery mildew? A. If the trees were not sprayed with fungicide or other pest control agents, the apples should be safe to eat. Powdery mildew and most plant diseases do not infect people, but I would wash the apples well anyway. People are rarely infected by fungal diseases that may be contracted through a wound when handling packing material around some nursery stock. This is rare, but it is rare and unexpected and difficult to diagnose, so gardeners should be prepared to tell their doctors if they have handled the moist packing material around roots of bare root trees or similar substances. Once again, this is rare. Eating fruit from trees with foliar diseases like powdery mildew or similar

fungi is not hazardous. If the fruit had been injured by hail or insects and begun to rot, then there would be cause for concern. Your local NMSU Extension Home Economics agent can help you determine if that is the case. Food safety is an important issue. If the trees were sprayed, potential hazards will depend on what they sprayed and when they applied. The labels on any products used should tell how long before harvest to stop applying the product. Your local NMSU

County Extension Service agent can help you find this information and explain it if necessary. Q. Is now a good time to plant fall bulbs for spring flowers? A. Yes. Most garden centers have bulb and other perennial plants that can over winter and bloom in the spring. Now is a good time to plant them. If you have been fortunate to have had recent rains, the soil should be easy to dig and prepare for planting these plants. For most bulbs and perennials, loosen the soil deeply; and thor-

After the planting bed is properly prepared, plant the bulbs at the depth recommended for each species. Some must be planted quite deeply, others, such as peonies, should be shallowly planted. After planting, moisten the soil and irrigate once every 3 weeks to once a month through the winter. Roots will be developing and must have moisture. In late winter, water is important as the flower stalks elongate. Lack of

ALBUQUERQUE—This month in September, Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation is celebrating 50 years as the only foundation solely dedicated to improving the quality of lives for thousands of New Mexico children with disabilities and their families. The Foundation was established on Sept. 24, 1963 with the goal of raising funds for Carrie Tingley Hospital and providing support for patients and their families. “The Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation helps thousands of New Mexico’s children with disabilities each year and their families who face challenges once they leave the hospital,” said the Foundation’s Executive Director Jeff Hoehn. “As the only foundation in New Mexico solely dedicated to improving the lives of children with disabilities, we have very little ‘red tape’ so we can help families in need very quickly.” “Carrie Tingley Hospital Foundation is filled with compassionate people who pushed me

towards my future and taught me determination in learning new techniques to manage my paralyzed body,” said Cody Unser, who launched the Cody Unser First Step Foundation in 1999 after suffering paralysis from Transverse Myelitis. “Both the hospital and Foundation will always remain in my heart and I’m excited to help kids there facing difficult times by showing them the freedom of scuba diving. I enjoy giving back to a place that gave me so much. Congrats on 50 years!” The Foundation has posted several heartwarming, personal stories of their small patients on their website: carrietingleyhospitalfoundation.org/patient_stories.htm. The Foundation supports efforts of Carrie Tingley Hospital, who celebrated its 75th year in 2012, which is the State’s only pediatric rehabilitative hospital. Much of the Foundation’s efforts also involve long and short term financial assistance, scholar-

ships, and quality of life programs including the Patient and Family Assistance Program, Quality of Life Program, and Respite Care Program. The Patient and Family Assistance Program assists families with funding for critical items such as: wheelchair ramp installations in homes, van conversions, medical equipment needed but not covered by insurance, short term emergency rent or utility assistance, handcycles, therapeutic tricycles, and standers. Likewise, the Foundation’s Quality of Life Program provides scholarships for families to participate in recreational opportunities for children with disabilities including: an adaptive cycling program, Beyond Limits Summer Wheelchair Sports Camps, dance program in cooperation with the Keshet Dance Company, and recreational therapeutic horseback riding program. The Foundation hopes to expand on their Respite Care Pro-

gram, which gives families a much deserved break from caring for their child with disabilities by supplying them with a trained care provider who cares for the child in his or her home. The upcoming sixth annual Festival of Trees is scheduled from Dec. 6–8 at Sandia Resort and Casino. The event includes live entertainment, visits from Santa, and holiday music. Each tree will feature a poster with a child’s photo and touching story about his/her challenges and how the Foundation and Carrie Tingley Hospital have helped. The Foundation hopes to raise over $100,000 at the Festival and is seeking tree sponsors. Contact Tanya Robinson to learn more about sponsorship at 505-2436626. Other third-party fundraiser events through the end of the year include: Jiffy Lube Lubathon (Oct. 19), Mark Pardo Fashion Show (Nov. 9), Nutcracker on the Rocks (Dec. 6-8), and Toys for Tingley, sponsored by the Albu-

oughly work compost or other organic amendments and a source of phosphate (bone meal or commercial phosphate fertilizer) into the soil. In our organic soils, bone meal will not readily release the phosphorous into the soil without organic matter or sulfur to increase the soil acidity. Commercial phosphate fertilizers may be more effective in soils with low levels of organic matter.

moisture will result in stunting of the flower stalks. If there is adequate winter moisture to maintain soil moisture at the depth of the bulbs you will not need to irrigate, but since we often lack sufficient winter moisture some irrigation is usually necessary. Organic mulch can also help maintain soil moisture and provides an additional benefit by moderating changes in soil temperature as the weather changes.

Stocks fall on government shutdown worries C4 Sunday, September 29, 2013

BY JOSHUA FREED AP BUSINESS WRITER The budget fight may be happening in Washington, but it’s investors on Wall Street who keep getting smacked. Stocks fell Friday for the sixth day out of the last seven, and ended the week with a decline. Investors focused on the risk that the government could shut down on Tuesday unless Congress agrees to a new spending bill. And even if that hurdle is cleared, the dispute is poised to continue into the middle of October as legislators debate raising the nation’s borrowing limit. There were a lot of moving parts for investors to keep track of on Friday. The U.S. Senate approved a spending bill that is already considered dead in the House of Representatives, where Republicans want changes to President Barack Obama’s health care law. Obama spoke on live television during the closing minutes of trading. And investors braced for the possibility that when markets reopen on Monday, none of this will have been resolved, even though the House will be in session over the weekend. So how should an investor get ready for next week?

SUNDAY BUSINESS

“I don’t know what’s going to happen 15 minutes from now,” said Stephen Carl, head of equity trading at The Williams Capital Group. He noted that volume on Friday was low, suggesting that some investors were waiting for more information. Stocks moved little as Obama spoke during the final minutes of trading. He reiterated a previous vow not to negotiate with Congress under the threat of a shutdown. The Dow Jones industrial average fell 70.06 points, or 0.5 percent, to close at 15,258.24. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell 6.92 points, or 0.4 percent, to 1,691.75. The Nasdaq composite was down 5.83 points, or 0.15 percent, at 3,781.59. Still, the indexes are off only about 1 percent for the week, and the S&P 500 is just 2 percent below its record high set Sept. 18. Investors are also dealing with mixed economic signals. On Friday, a government report showed that incomes and consumer spending grew slightly last month. The increases suggest anemic growth that is not strong enough to accelerate the economic recovery. A survey showed that consumer confidence declined this

month as Americans worried about the possible government shutdown and their own finances. The survey found that half of households expect no pay increase in the coming year. The Federal Reserve’s view last week that the economy is still weak is scaring people, said Frank Fantozzi, CEO of Planned Financial Services. “If you keep saying things are bad, even if things are good, people are going to believe they’re bad, and they’re going to act accordingly,” he said. Eight out of 10 industry groups in the S&P 500 index fell. Health care and consumer discretionary stocks had small gains. Among big stock movers: J.C. Penney Co. shares slid $1.37, or 13 percent, to $9.05 after the struggling retailer said it would raise about $811 million through a stock of fering. The shares fell as investors noted that the new shares are priced at $9.65, less than J.C. Penney’s closing price of $10.42 on Thursday. Also, the growing pool of shares means investors’ current stakes in the company will shrink. United Continental Holdings Inc. fell $3.16, or 9 percent, to $30.91 after it projected third-

Coming up with new ways to scare BlackBerry posts LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ozzy Osbourne can’t help himself. While on a behind-the-scenes trek through a Universal Studios Hollywood attraction based on the recently released Black Sabbath album “13,” Osbourne spots a bloody mannequin corpse reclining on a phony altar. Without hesitating, the gruesomely theatrical Sabbath frontman leans down and acts like he’s devouring the blood from the decapitated body with his tongue. Faced with increasingly hardcore rivals and savvy visitors, organizers of such Halloween attractions this year have conjured up several new theatrical and technological innovations in hopes of licking the competition, as well as promoting entertainment fare like horror films and records. For Sabbath, it marks the first time their tunes have been turned into a maze. “It adds another dimension to what we do, which is incredible because we’ve been doing it for 45 years,” said Osbourne while standing inside the attraction. “It’s been a remarkable year because we had our first No. 1 album in America — believe it or not — and now this. I’ve never seen anything like it. I keep thinking I’m going to wake up.” “Well, don’t wake up in here,” joked Sabbath bassist and lyricist Geezer Butler next to him. For the first time since Halloween Horror Nights returned to the Universal Studios backlot in 2007, creative director John Murdy has incorporated video effects into a maze. In a room inspired by the song “Electric Funeral” within Sabbath’s colorful 3D realm, monitors made to look like windows broadcast explosive 3D visuals in tandem with a wind machine. “I just thought it would be cool to have a nuclear bomb go off and our guests be in the middle of that,” said Murdy. In recent years, Halloween Horror Nights traded warrens based on longrunning slash-’em-up franchises like “A Nightmare on Elm Street” for attractions inspired by more contemporary properties, such as the “Hostel” movies, “Silent Hill” video games and “The Walking Dead” television series. The biggest challenges for Murdy and his team for this year’s six Universal mazes included figuring out how to depict the freaked-out kid from “Insidious” constantly shivering in his bed while toy rocking horses galloped by themselves. Also troublesome was

how hordes of guests could be vomited on all night long by an “Evil Dead” demon. “They’re all like little science projects,” said Murdy. “No matter how successful we were the previous year, our philosophy is to always treat it like it’s the first year we’re back in business.” Beyond the rotating attractions at Halloween Horror Nights, a few celebrities have invested in their own haunted attractions. “Hostel” filmmaker Eli Roth opened his year-round maze Goretorium in Las Vegas last year, and Neil Patrick Harris serves as one of the producers of Delusion, an annual theatrical Halloween experience taking place this year in an old Los Angeles church. Several spooks at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights are hyping new releases from the entertainment industry. Besides Sabbath’s “13,” there’s a “scare zone” populated by actors dressed as the nasty Chucky doll from the direct-to-DVD sequel “Curse of Chucky,” and a new maze incorporating supernatural elements from the “Insidious” films. “I think it strengthens the brand,” said Jason Blum, producer of “The Purge,” “Insidious” and “Paranormal Activity” horror flicks. “Because it’s done so well, it also gives us a little more street cred. In the case of ‘The Purge,’ there’s so much mythology

that wasn’t necessarily included in the first film, it makes it well suited to a live event.” In addition to the attractions based on both “Insidious” chapters and “The Purge” at Universal Studios, Blum and his Blumhouse production company are hosting their own Halloween event that expands on the kill-or-be-killed mythology of “The Purge” in a shuttered theater in downtown LA. While the event will include a traditional maze in the theater’s basement, “The Purge: Fear the Night” will also invite guests to freely roam around upstairs and interact with more than 40 actors portraying members of the Founding Fathers group depicted in the film. Some guests who give up their cellphone numbers may also be contacted with clues throughout the evening. At Knott’s Berry Farm in Buena Park, Calif., the 10 mazes that comprise the 41-year-old Knott’s Scary Farm haunt are based on original storylines, not established franchises. Without such brand equity, the organizers are hoping some new tricks — such as suspending “scare-actors” from the ceiling of a magical maze — will attract victims. For the second year, Knott’s will also feature a special attraction called “Trapped,” which requires advanced reservations and costs an extra $60 on top of a regular ticket.

TORONTO (AP) — BlackBerry said Friday that it is committed to completing a series of major changes quickly after posting a nearly billion-dollar loss and a 45 percent drop in revenue for the second quarter. “We are very disappointed with our operational and financial results this quarter and have announced a series of major changes to address the competitive hardware environment and our cost structure,” Thorsten Heins, the chief executive officer, said in a statement. “We understand how some of the activities we are going through create uncertainty, but we remain a financially strong company with $2.6 billion in cash and no debt. We are focused on our targeted markets, and are committed to completing our transition quickly in order to establish a more focused and efficient company.” The troubled smartphone company reported a loss of $965 million and revenue of $1.6 billion, in line with what it warned when it surprised the market by releasing dismal earnings projections last week and announcing 4,500 layoffs. A year ago, it lost $235 million on revenue of $2.9 billion. The company had announced Monday that Fairfax Financial Holdings Ltd., BlackBerry’s largest shareholder, is making a tentative $4.7 billion offer to buy the company and is trying to attract other investors. BlackBerry cancelled its previously scheduled Friday conference call with analysts in light of that overture. The adjusted loss was $248 million, or 47 cents per share, in the latest quarter. Analysts surveyed by FactSet had expected an adjusted loss of 16 cents per share. The head of Fairfax Financial Holdings, Prem Watsa, told The Associated Press this week he has every intention of completing the acquisition of BlackBerry, despite doubts that the deal will go through. Fairfax signed a letter of intent that “contemplates” buying BlackBerry for $9 a share. Watsa said Fairfax won’t be contributing more to the bid than the 10 percent it already owns. The deal is subject to six weeks of due diligence and there is no breakup fee for BlackBerry should Fairfax walk away. The stock has been trading around a dollar less than the $9 bid on fears the deal won’t happen. BGC analyst Colin Gillis said the conditional offer is skewed in Watsa’s favor, noting Fairfax is not putting in more equity into the deal and is allowed to bring in other unnamed investors. “He’s putting up nothing and he’s getting something,” Gillis said. Analysts say that although BlackBerry’s hardware business is not worth much, the company still has a smartphone service business where it manages BlackBerrys and competing smartphones on its network. The service business brought in 46 percent of BlackBerry’s $1.6 billion in revenue in the quarter. The company also owns valuable patents. BlackBerry is also strong in having total cash and investments of about $2.6 billion, with no debt, though it’s burning through that stockpile. In just the past few months, it’s spent more than half a billion dollars. Its U.S.-traded shares closed up 8 cents at $8.03 Friday — nearly $1 per share less than the buyout price suggested by Fairfax.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: I was divorced 14 years ago. Afterward, my ex, “Tom,” hid from me because he was afraid I’d have him arrested for not paying child support. Our son is a Marine, and the Red Cross notified him that his father was dying in a hospital on the East Coast. My ex’s aunt had contacted them to notify my son as next of kin. Tom had remarried, divorced again and had a girlfriend. He died a few days later. Nobody is willing to pay for his cremation. I asked his sister and aunt if we could split the bill three ways, even though I realize I’m not obligated. They refused, even after being told the remains would be

deemed “unclaimed.” The county would dispose of him as an indigent drifter. Their excuse was they hadn’t heard from him in several years. I told them they were preaching to the choir, since I was the one he hid from. I do not resent my ex because I realize his death was as unpredictable as his life. But I do feel bitterly taken advantage of. When I accused his relatives of false concern, they got angry at me. How can I demonstrate honor to my son by dishonoring his father that way? ON THE SPOT IN CALIFORNIA DEAR ON THE SPOT: You are not the next of kin; your son is. Ask him what he thinks would be the appropriate way to handle his deadbeat dad’s remains. You made the effort to have the family pay for the burial, and that should show your son that you tried to honor his father. I don’t know how long it has been since your ex passed, but this is a case where the body could have been donated to a medical school. There is nothing dishonorable about that. #####

COMICS

DEAR ABBY: A friend who lives out of town asked me if she can stay with me for a few days. We often host each other. However, she also mentioned that she has a bedbug infestation. I could take precautions, but some friends have said it was nervy of her to even ask because it put me in an awkward position. I honestly would prefer she not come, but I feel guilty. Any advice? POSSIBLE HOST IN NEW YORK DEAR POSSIBLE HOST: Yes. Tell your friend you would love to see her, but in light of her revelation, you think it would be better if she stays in a hotel during this visit. And unless you are absolutely sure that her home and clothing are insect-free, entertain her away from your dwelling. Bedbugs can cling to EVERYTHING — suitcases, clothing, you name it. Hostess, protect thyself. ##### DEAR ABBY: My husband died three years ago and I’m still grieving deeply. Time hasn’t made it easier; in fact, it’s get-

ting more difficult. No one around me understands or even cares, for that matter.

How do I find a good therapist? I don’t know what questions to ask to see if I can trust him or her with my thoughts, and if we would get along. Any suggestions? DYING OF A BROKEN HEART

DEAR DYING:

A way to find a good therapist would be to ask friends and/or your doctor for referrals and explain that since your husband’s death your grief hasn’t lessened. Your state psychological association can also provide the names of members who specialize in grief counseling.

Interview several prospective therapists. A question you should ask is how many patients with your problem he or she has successfully treated. However, the bottom line is whether you feel the therapist listens well and has the compassion to help you, which is as important as any diploma hanging on the wall. You’ll know when you meet someone you are comfortable with.

Stricken United plane captain dies in Boise

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Idaho officials have identified the United Airlines captain who died after suffering a mid-flight heart attack as 63-year -old Henry Skillern of Humble, Texas. Ada County Coroner Erwin Sonnenberg performed an autopsy on Skillern late Friday morning and confirmed that he died at a Boise hospital of a heart attack. The captain was piloting United Flight 1603 from Houston to Seattle when the emergency occurred Thursday forcing an off-duty pilot to take over control of the plane. Two Madigan Army Medical Center doctors onboard performed CPR, according to Jay Ebbeson, a spokesman for the hos-

pital at Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Ebberson says the two are captains and radiology residents who were returning to the base near Tacoma, Wash., from a medical course at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio. They were unavailable Friday to talk about the incident, he said. The plane made an emergency landing in Boise and Skillern was still alive when he was taken to Saint Alphonsus Regional Medical Center, but he died during treatment, spokeswoman Jennifer Krajnik said Friday. The news lit up social media in the early morning hours Friday. Passenger Ken Martin told Seattle TV

Miss Philippines wins Miss World in Bali BALI, Indonesia (AP) — Miss Philippines, Megan Young, was cr owned Miss World on Saturday amid tight security on Indonesia’s resort island of Bali, where the contest’s final r ound was moved following protests by Muslim har dliner groups. “I pr omise to be the best Miss World ever,” Young, 23, said after winning the 63rd annual event, as a large number of Filipino fans who traveled with her celebrated by jumping and waving the country’s flag. Despite threats from the Islamic Defenders Front to disrupt the contest, police said no rallies were staged Satur-

day. The gr oup has demonstrated for weeks, calling for the gover nment to cancel the pageant because members say it shows too much skin and goes against Islamic teachings. The 127 contestants vying for the crown were intr oduced Satur day wearing evening gowns shimmering in sequins, many of them with plunging necklines and slits up the leg. Four candidates dropped out earlier, mainly due to illnesses, said Syafril Nasution, one of the local organizers.

Miss France, Marine Lorphelin, 20, took second place, while Miss Ghana, Carranzar Naa O k a i l e y S h o o t e r, 2 2 , came in third. Miss World organizers had earlier agreed to cut bikinis from the swimsuit competition, replacing them with more conservative sarongs. But pressure continued to mount, and more mainstream groups joined in and called for the show to be banned.

station KOMO (http://bit.ly/19Fu3A4) a first-year resident doctor sitting next to him volunteered to help perform CPR. She told Martin the pilot appeared to weigh over 300 pounds and was taken into the first class cabin where CPR was performed. Passenger Bryant Magill described a calm scene onboard. “I’m really impressed with all the flight attendants,” Magill told KOMO. “They kept themselves calm. They kept it professional. There was no panic on the plane.” United Airlines spokeswoman Christen David said another off-duty United Airlines pilot was onboard and helped land the plane. She declined to immediately release

details of the situation. “I am sad to confirm that our co-worker passed away last night. Our thoughts are with his family at this time,” David said in an email. Pilots are required to get medical certificates that show they don’t have major heart problems, according to the Federal Aviation Administration website. The flight landed safely about 8 p.m. local time and was met by paramedics who took the pilot to the hospital. The Boeing 737-900 had 161 passengers and a crew of six on board. David says another pilot flew the plane and passengers to Sea-Tac Airport.

SANTA FE, NM — ”Breaking up” with AMC’s ”Breaking Bad” may be hard to do for the millions of obsessed fans who will see the series come to its conclusion this Sunday. But they can cure their blues in New Mexico. The show filmed there for five seasons, inspiring a profusion of themed tours, hotel packages, food, drink and souvenirs designed to immerse visitors in Walter’s world. ”New Mexico became an important character in the story, as well as a second home to the ’Breaking Bad’ cast,” said Monique Jacobson, the state’s secretary of tourism. ”Here, fans of the show can check out iconic shooting locations and experience everything that made the cast fall in love with New Mexico — its natural beauty, food, culture, history, and friendly people.” Just a few examples of ”Breaking Bad”related travel experiences to be had in and around the Albuquerque area include the

Albuquerque Trolley Company’s special location tours, as well as Hotel Albuquerque and Nativo Lodge’s hotel packages. Visitors can also enjoy a Breaking Bad-themed ”Blue Sky” donut at Rebel Donut, pick up a $1 bag of blue rock candy at Old Town’s The Candy Lady (the same candy was supplied as props to the show) or take home some ”Bathing Bad” bath salts from Great Face & Body. For beer aficionados, Marble Brewery has introduced Walt’s White Lie and Heisenberg’s Dark Ale in tribute to the show. For full details and further suggestions, travelers can visit newmexico.org/filmtrails, a new travel planning resource that helps them plan trips based on ”Breaking Bad” as well as the hundreds of other popular TV series and movies shot in the state. Created by the state’s tourism department, the web page offers special itineraries, film history and lore.

ENTERTAINMENT

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll turn up the fun level just by being yourself. A conversation could YOUR HOROSCOPE become rather intense, and you might find that the other party is distancing him- or herself. Remember, everyone needs to feel comfortable in this situation.

Iceland’s wild scenery, tax breaks lure Hollywood REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) — It has doubled as an alien planet, a Himalayan peak and even the snow-filled fantasy world of the “Game of Thrones.” Still recovering from financial collapse, Iceland can perhaps be forgiven for seeking alternate identities. And Hollywood is providing the remote North Atlantic island much needed revenue and jobs — as well as a touch of glamour — as it struggles to emerge from its nationwide banking and currency debacle. The country’s unique environment, along with generous tax incentives, continues to attract some of the biggest Hollywood filmmakers and television producers. “The main factor is the incredible landscape that we have,” said Einar Sveinn Thordarson, the director of marketing for Pegasus, which provides production services for HBO’s “Game of Thrones”; the hit series has filmed in Iceland three times. “It’s very unique, and that’s what inspires people the most.” This summer, about 300 crewmembers spent two weeks at Iceland’s Thingvellir National Park, shooting for the upcoming fourth season. Game of Thrones producer Chris Newman told Icelandic news website Visir this summer that they were creating the Westeros world in the drama — and that Iceland fits the vision for the imaginary continent. “I’ve been filming here and working here for 25 years working on and off and I know, having driven around so much, that there’s so much landscape here to make the show just seem enormous,” said Newman. Producers have come to treasure Iceland for its strange and magnificent appearance: otherworldly black lava fields, active volcanos and gushing geysers. The variety of locations and landscapes is a huge selling point not only for television shows, but also big Hollywood

Iceland is turning to Hollywood for much needed revenue and jobs, as well as a touch of glamour, as it struggles to recover from a nationwide banking and currency collapse. films, said Leifur Dagfinnsson, chairman and founding partner of Truenorth, which has worked on films including “The Fifth Estate” — a film about WikiLeaks and its founder, Julian Assange — and “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.” Director Ridley Scott chose Iceland as his alien planet for the 2012 sci-fi film “Prometheus,” choosing to shoot in Iceland’s northern highlands. Iceland also hosted a crew of 1,000 people for Clint Eastwood’s 2006 war film “Flags of Our Fathers.”

In addition to the wild landscapes, there are financial reasons to shoot in Iceland. Tax incentives lure filmmakers, as the government operates a generous reimbursement program. Visiting film productions could get reimbursed up to 20 percent of their production costs while filming on Icelandic soil, a substantial benefit on films costing tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. To qualify for the rebate, filmmakers must establish a company in Iceland, or create an Icelandic branch of an existing

company. The filmmakers then send details about the film to Iceland’s Ministry of Industry, along with an estimate of production costs. Eligible production costs do not include wages for employees who pay tax in another country. “We wouldn’t stand a chance without this rebate,” said Dagfinnsson. While Iceland’s environment is beautiful, it’s very unpredictable. Weather patter ns change rapidly, and foreign production crews have to be ready for anything.

During filming for Ben Stiller’s “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty,” actors and crewmembers were in a battle against fierce winds. “We were filming Walter Mitty August into September,” said Dagfinnsson. “We had strong winds coming down in September when cold glacier air meets warmer air. We had Sean Penn’s trailer capsize in the wind. We had to dig through (his possessions) and collect his weights so he could train in his hotel. It was that kind of weather where we were held inside the hotel for two days.”

8 years after Katrina, historic Saenger Theater reopens

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Eight years ago, Hurricane Katrina and massive flooding spurred by broken levees heavily damaged the historic Saenger Theatre. On Friday, the theatre reopened for business following a $52 million renovation that restored the 86-year-old ornate movie theatre into what now hosts stage productions and live music concerts. Mayor Mitch Landrieu, elected officials and investors who partnered to bring the restoration to fruition stood on the newly renovated stage to celebrate the theatre’s formal reopening. A sold-out performance by comedian Jerry Seinfeld later Friday will mark the theatre’s return. Two more shows by Seinfeld are scheduled Saturday. Landrieu and others used words like “wow,” ‘’breathtaking,” ‘’amazing” and “beautiful” to describe the Saenger’s transformation. Designers returned the theatre to its 1927 grandeur with a historically replicated carpet, original and replicated chandeliers, and a historically

accurate paint scheme. Improvements also include technical upgrades, including new fiber optic stars in the auditorium, expanded restrooms and concession facilities. The theatre used to seat about 4,000 but now seats about 2,600, giving patrons more room and comfort, officials said. Landrieu said the theater, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, is the city’s best symbol of resurrection and resilience. “This is just a spectacular moment for all of us,” Landrieu said. “We don’t want to be like Atlanta, New York and D.C. We want to take the old and the new and create that authentic New Orleans that can’t be replicated anywhere else in the world. And we’ve done that. I encourage you to use it and enjoy it.” David Rubenstein, chair man of the Canal Street Development Corporation, said the theatre is another step in the revitalization of the Canal Street corridor. “This is just another reason to come

and spend the weekend in New Orleans,” he said. Former Mayor Moon Landrieu, the current mayor’s father, recalled the first time he saw a movie at the Saenger. “I remember looking at the ceiling, seeing the ‘stars’ (twinkling lights in the ceiling) and wondering if I was looking at the sky. I was so excited to be here. When I look at all the statuary in here ... they’ve restored everything exactly as my old memories tell me,” he said. Rick Isley, a New Orleans native and singer who dropped by to see the changes, said the facility is still as luxurious as he remembers. “It’s just beautiful,” he said. “This is where I first saw ‘Enter the Dragon,’ back in the 1970s. Now look at it.” City Council President Jackie Clarkson recalled entering the theatre on her 5th birthday “before World War II.” “This is the greatest comeback of all led by this administration,” Clarkson said. “The memories it springs are so genera-

tional. Everybody still alive in this city can still remember the first time they walked into this gorgeous theatre.” Councilwoman Cynthia Hedge Morrell said her now-husband took her to see “The Sound of Music” on their first date some 48 years ago. “It looks the same,” she said, smiling. She said she hoped the theatre would “further open up jobs for the city’s residents.” “I’m thinking in terms of behind the scenes,” she said. “Those doing the props for the productions, the caterers. I’m hoping the cultural economy will steer jobs to our citizenry so that this city becomes one where everyone can get a ‘good’ job.” Other upcoming theatre highlights include an Oct. 5 performance by actress Kristin Chenoweth and the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, a show by singer Diana Ross on Oct. 30 and the return of Broadway to New Orleans with the Tony Award-winning play The Book of Mormon on Oct. 15.
