Bond could bring improvements to ENMU-R BY RANDAL SEYLER RECORD CITY EDITOR

When voters go to the polls on Nov. 4, they probably won’t be thinking about leaky roofs or outdated boilers. But those are the very things officials at Eastern New Mexico UniversityRoswell are counting on, and whether or not they happen depends on New Mexico’s voters approving Bond C. Bond C is one of three

bonds that will be on the ballot and one that must be approved statewide by voters, said Donna Oracion, college development director for ENMU-R, on Thursday.

“Bonds are voted on by the public every two years ... this one replaces a current bond that is retiring, and that is why there is no tax increase,” said Oracion.

Bond A funds senior centers across the state, while Bond B funds the state’s public and school libraries,

Oracion said. Bond C is for colleges and universities, and locally successful passage of Bond C will bring $3 million to ENMU-R and $4.8 million to New Mexico Military Academy.

The $7.8 million is expected to bring 78 new jobs to Chaves County, and voting in favor of the bonds does not increase anyone’s tax bill, Oracion said. Statewide, the passage of Bond C will provide $139 million for colleges and universities to perform needed

maintenance to facilities. ENMU-R has a population of about 4,000 students, while Eastern New Mexico University-Portales has about 5,600 students, Oracion said. The Portales campus also has an $11 million project on ballot. “It’s a way that we can continue to fund these maintenance projects. There used to be a fund called ‘building replacement and maintenance.’ It See BOND, Page A3

Gov. Martinez calls for an Ebola preparedness plan ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Gov. Susana Martinez has directed the state Department of Health to coordinate an Ebola preparedness plan in case the disease is diagnosed in any New Mexico patients. Martinez’s office says the Health Department will work with other state agen-

cies, local governments and hospitals across New Mexico to ensure officials are prepared.

Martinez says that despite the low risk, she wants to reassure residents that the state would be able to respond quickly if an Ebola case emerges.

High court allows Texas voter ID law

Artesia city councilor to Miss New Mexico gets to discuss detention center know a little about Mars ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A city councilor in southeastern New Mexico where 500 Central American immigrants are being detained is set to join a forum on the center’s conditions. Officials say Artesia City Councilor Jose Luis Aguilar is set to participate in a forum Sunday in Albuquerque that will also address how the immigrants are struggling to obtain legal representation.

Leticia Zamarripa, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, says since the Artesia detention center opened in June, more than 300 immigrants have been processed and deported from the facility.

But this week, Artesia Mayor Phillip Burch said ICE of ficials now report more detainees are getting released from the center than deported.

Faith is what keeps him going: Pastor Valdez has touched many lives over his 50 years in the ministry

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has allowed Texas to use its strict voter ID law in the November election even after a federal judge said the law was the equivalent of a poll tax and threatened to deprive many blacks and Latinos of the right to vote this year. Like earlier orders in North Carolina, Ohio and Wisconsin, the justices’ action before dawn on Saturday, two days before the start of early voting in Texas, appears to be based on their view that changing

in the area. Since Toni’s passing in May, Valdez has been less involved with the ministry but still attends church faithfully and still holds the title of Spanish pastor. “He’s been a great asset over the years,” said Brandon Hutchison, children’s pastor. “He has been a faithful church member and attends services as his health allows. He has been a great minister, specifically to our Spanish speakers, and has translated documents for the church.” When asked his age, the nonagenarian quipped that he is “91 years and 7 months old.”

Altogether, Valdez has been in the ministry for 50 years, including 14 years as the Spanish minister at the Baptist church in Dexter. In his pastoral career, Valdez has done a lot of marriage counseling and officiating at weddings and funerals. “That’s always been my favorite,” he said of officiating at weddings and funerals. Along with his impressive career in the ministry, Valdez has been a substitute teacher for 32 years, worked as a driver for the Chaves County J.O.Y. Centers and has worked at Lagrone

Tasmanian devil death probed at zoo

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Authorities are investigating the death of one of four Tasmanian devils loaned to the Albuquerque BioPark Zoo by an Australian group. The animal, named Jasper, was provided to the facility last year, along with three others, by the Healesville Sanctuary in Australia as part of an overall ef fort to start a breeding program for the endangered species, the Albuquerque Jour nal reported. The devils’ population on the island of Tasmania south of the Australian mainland has been decimated by a form of cancer. Jasper was discovered dead in his outdoor enclosure on Wednesday, the newspaper reported. Investigators suspect the animal was killed by someone who hit it with a piece of asphalt that was found near its body, according to an Albuquerque police report. “Upon hearing about it, the mayor was shocked, outraged, extremely concerned,” said Gilbert Montaño, Mayor Richard Berry’s chief of staff. “These little guys are an endangered species.” The zoo reported finding Jasper’s body in a pool of blood inside its enclosure. An examination of the animal found its skull had been fractured.

Authorities are asking anyone who saw something to come forward. “The whole idea to have the animals here was to create a breeding ground,” Montaño said. “We hope this doesn’t jeopardize our efforts to create a habitat for an endangered animal.”

Man dies in Border Patrol custody in Texas

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Federal authorities say a drug suspect has died while in custody at a U.S. Border Patrol facility in Texas. U.S. Customs and Border Protection says the 36year -old man was found unresponsive Friday in a holding cell at a Border Patrol checkpoint between Carlsbad, New Mexico and El Paso, Texas. Authorities say agents performed CPR on the man before he was transported to an El Paso hospital where he died. They say he was in custody for drug possession. U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Office of Internal Affairs is investigating.

WASHINGTON (AP) — For the third straight year, millions of Social Security recipients, disabled veterans and federal retirees can expect historically small increases in their benefits come January. Preliminary figures suggest the annual cost-of-living adjustment, or COLA, will be less than 2 percent. That translates to a raise of about $20 a month for the typical Social Security beneficiary. The government is scheduled to announce the COLA on Wednesday, when it releases the latest measure of consumer prices. By law, the COLA is based on inflation, which is well below historical averages so far this year. For example, gas prices are down from a year ago,

Congress enacted automatic increases for Social Security beneficiaries in 1975, when inflation was high and there was a lot of pressure to regularly raise benefits. For the first 35 years, the COLA was less than 2 percent only three times. If the COLA is less than 2 percent next year, it would be the fifth time in six years.

and so is the cost of clothing. Prices for meat, fish and eggs are up nearly 9 percent, but overall food costs are up less than 3 percent, according to the government’s inflation report for August. Medical costs, which disproportionately affect older people, are only 1.8 percent higher. But good news at the pump means bad news for benefit increases. Many older people who rely on Social Security are feeling the pinch of tiny benefit increases year after year. “You lose that increase, not only in the short-term, you lose the compounding over time,” said Mary Johnson of The Senior Citizens League. “For the middle class, for people that don’t qualify for low-income pro-

the city. The department also announced that it has submitted documents from the investigation on the death of 38-year-old James Boyd to the FBI and the Bernalillo County District Attorney’s Office. Both agencies can pursue charges against officers involved. Albuquerque police also released audio recordings and thousands of documents related to the shooting. A helmet-camera video of the March shooting showed Boyd, who authorities say suffered from schizophrenia, gathering his belongings before officers opened fire. An Albuquerque police officer who fatally shot the homeless camper vowed before the deadly encounter that he would shoot the suspect with a stun gun, according to a New Mexico State police sergeant’s interview released by city officials last month. An autopsy report released in May said Boyd was shot in the back, had multiple emergency surgeries and had his arm amputated before he died. The shooting sparked widespread calls for reform of the Albuquerque Police Department, and the U.S. Justice Department then released a scathing review of the agency’s use of force.

was state-funded for all the colleges and universities and that is what we used to use to fund all of our maintenance, and that was taken away, and so this was its replacement. This is how we get our money, but the voters have to approve it every two years.” Every two years, there are projects that all the schools put forward, and a committee approves or disapproves the proposed maintenance, then it is put on the ballot, she said. $1 million of the $3 million ENMU-R is hoping to receive will go toward repairs at the Aviation Maintenance Technology Center, where a new roof is estimated to cost $600,000 and a new boiler is expected to cost $400,000. Other plans for ENMU-R

include a $1.25 million upgrade of security for the campus, including new door locks, surveillance equipment, cameras and improved campus lighting, and a new roof for the Learning Resource Center, which is expected to cost $750,000. “The Learning Resource Center is our library, and we have significant leaks in that building,” Oracion said. “That roof is 26 years old, and the Aviation Maintenance Technology Center roof is 21 years old.” The Aviation Maintenance Technology program has about 30 students, and of ficials hope to expand that class to about 40, Oracion said. The aviation maintenance program is an FAA certified Part 147 training program, offering students the opportunity to complete instruction in about 14 months.

“We have a class of 10 graduating, and the classes are kept relatively small, but that is due to the FAA guidelines,” Oracion said. The students receive scholarships from AerSale, which helps pay for their education and many of them stay local and contribute to Roswell’s economy. “Many of the students in that program are older, they are career changers and ex-military,” Oracion said. “They are not the traditional, right-out-of-high school student because that program is very structured and very demanding. It is basically a job in itself.” The classes run eight hours a day, five days a week, and the students are required by the FAA to put in a certain number of hours to obtain their certifications. “So it is hard for a high school student to go

straight into that,” Oracion said. “And it is hard also for a person who has to work. They would work in the evenings, on weekends, so a lot of them need that scholarship funding and AerSale has been a good partner with us.”

AerSale is currently looking for more employees, and Oracion said the university is working to provide qualified maintenance technicians for the local industry. “We are trying to maintain our facilities and provide a good work space to keep that program top quality,” she said. “It is a unique program in the state so we want to keep investing in the program and keep it strong.”

but not college student IDs. The law has not previously been used in congressional elections or a high-profile race for governor. The Supreme Court’s brief unsigned order, like those in the other three states, offers no explanation for its action. In this case, the Justice Department and civil rights groups were asking that the state be prevented from requiring the photo ID in the Nov. 4 election, where roughly 600,000 voters, disproportionately black and Latino, lack acceptable forms of ID. The challengers said that the last time the Supreme Court allowed a voting law to be used in a subsequent election after it had been found to be unconstitutional was in 1982. That case from Georgia involved an at-large election system that had been in existence since 1911. Republican lawmakers in Texas and elsewhere say voter ID laws are needed to reduce voter fraud. Democrats contend that such cases are extremely rare and that voter ID measures are thinly veiled attempts to keep eligible voters, many of them minorities supportive of Democrats, away from the polls. The details of the laws appear to be less important than the timing of court rulings. In Wisconsin, half as many voters — 300,000 — did not have the required ID. Wisconsin also would accept photo ID from a four-year public college or a federally recognized American Indian tribe, while Texas does not. In a sharply worded dissent for three justices in the Texas case, Ruth Bader Ginsburg said her colleagues in the majority were allowing misplaced concerns about chaos in the voting process trump “the potential magnitude of racially discriminatory voter disenfranchisement.” Justices Elena Kagan and Sonia

Sotomayor joined the dissent.

Attorney General Eric Holder acknowledged the proximity to the election, but said that did not excuse the use of a law found unconstitutional by a federal judge. “It is a major step backward to let stand a law that a federal court, after a lengthy trial, has determined was designed to discriminate.” Ginsburg leaned heavily on the findings contained in the 143-page opinion of U.S. District Judge Nelva Gonzales Ramos, who called the law an “unconstitutional burden on the right to vote” and the equivalent of a poll tax.

Ramos, an appointee of President Barack Obama, blocked the law, but a panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans said her ruling came too close to the start of voting.

Richard Hasen, an election law expert at the University of California at Irvine law school, has written extensively about the Supreme Court’s reluctance to allow potentially disruptive changes to take effect at the last minute.

“The idea that courts should not impose a new set of voting rules just before an election is not a new one,” Hasen said after the court earlier this month ordered a halt to the Wisconsin law. That same motivation, though, appeared to be behind orders allowing restrictions on early voting, same-day registration and provisional ballots in Ohio and North Carolina to be in force for this election.

The partisan divide over the laws has been reflected on the court itself. Ginsburg and Sotomayor would have blocked the laws in all four states. Justices Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas would have allowed them to be used in each state.

OPINION

Exercise can improve mental, physical health Since moving to Roswell, I have gained 10 pounds. I must say that my diet has been terrible ever since my first year of college three years ago; I ate Mexican food almost every day my first year and then I ate Panda Express almost every day during my second year. My third year I ate a lot of ramen and rice. I never exercised except for when I was at work. But then I graduated, turned 21, went to Florida for vacation and moved here. The whole month of May I think I was eating out 80 percent of the time. I drank a lot of alcohol and I just didn’t pay attention to what I was doing to my body. Then I moved here and was the broke post-graduate who was too tired after work to make a meal complete with protein, carbohydrates and vegetables. From June

until just two weeks ago, my boyfriend and I were eating a lot of ramen, chicken, French fries and grilled cheese. Then the fair came. I missed my county fair in Ohio (which happens every August) so I was super excited for the fair here because I needed my funnel cake and cheese fries fix. While I was getting ready for the fair, I found my shorts were way too tight. I couldn’t breathe at all. Finding my shorts were too tight when at

the beginning of the summer they fit fine, made me completely selfconscious. That’s when I decided to do something. After going to the fair (after I ate my funnel cake and cheese fries that I so badly wanted), my boyfriend and I went to Target where we bought a scale and I bought some workout clothes. When we got home it was then I found out that I had gained 10 pounds after just four months in Roswell. My boyfriend even gained weight. So the next day, Sunday, my boyfriend and I decided to change everything we knew about eating and working out. I downloaded two fitness apps, MapMyWalk and myfitnesspal. MapMyWalk does just what the app is called: it tracks how far you have walked and/or ran and

tracks how many calories you have burned while exercising. The other app, myfitnesspal, tracks what you have eaten throughout the day and keeps track of your calories. The great thing about the two apps, I have found in the past two weeks, is that you can connect them. The calories lost in MapMyWalk will transfer over to myfitnesspal without the user doing anything. For the past two weeks I have been walking at least two miles every day (some days I walked close to 10 miles) and watching what I eat and tracking my calories. All I have been drinking is water. I bring salads to work every day instead of eating fast food. I am cooking more vegetables for dinner. In the past two weeks I have already seen a difference.

I have not stepped on the scale since the day I bought it but I can feel the difference in my body. I sleep through the night instead of waking up two or three times. After eating dinner, I do not feel sick to my stomach because of how much I ate and how ashamed of myself I was. I have more energy at work to get things done. I feel good after going for a walk. Although I have only been eating healthier and exercising for two weeks, I know I won’t stop any time soon. While I am still not the healthiest person in the world, I feel great. Going healthy was probably one of the best decisions I have made this year and I recommend going healthy to anyone. The difference you see in just a few weeks is worth it.

EDITORIAL

Make a commitment to honest government

Voter apathy is prevalent no matter where you live in the United States. Many voters feel that at best their choice of a candidate is a choice between “the lesser of two evils.” It takes money, lots of money, to run for even a local office such as sheriff or city commissioner. Consequently, many voters believe that the winner is not the candidate who will best represent the will of the people, but the will of big business and well-funded special interest groups. In New Mexico, 80 percent of people surveyed this year by Common Cause New Mexico believe that the impact of money in politics on the outcome of elections is a serious problem. Most voters in the Land of Enchantment believe that powerful interest groups use their donations to steer policy in the direction of their own interests, which may not be in the public interest. Common Cause is a citizens’ lobby that fights for open, honest and accountable government in Washington, D.C., and in all 50 states, according to its website. Heather Ferguson, campaign manager of Common Cause New Mexico, and Susan Boe, executive director for New Mexico Foundation for Open Government, visited the Daily Record offices Wednesday to ask the editor and publisher if they could get the word out to readers about an online pledge New Mexicans can sign to put our state on a path for creating a more responsive state government. The people who should truly sign the pledge, of course, are the elected officials, but anyone who wants to make a commitment to open and fair gover nment is encouraged to read and sign the petition at newmexicopledge.org. Every day, New Mexicans pay a heavy price due to the influence of money in politics. High unemployment, insufficient resources in our schools, and stagnant job growth continue to plague our state. The modern campaign system is broken and prevents elected officials from solving big problems, Common Cause states. The vast majority of elected officials in New Mexico are hard-working, ethical people who want the best for our state. Unfortunately, candidates must raise a massive amount of money to run for office. This makes candidates unduly dependent on major fundraisers that drown out the voices of normal New Mexicans who can’t afford to contribute. It’s no secret that New Mexico lags behind most other states in income levels and employment. New Mexico has the widest gap between the wealthiest residents and its middle- and lower-economic classes. While New Mexico struggles to create more jobs, ranking 48th among the states in employment growth, the economies of our neighboring states, Texas in particular, are growing. A government contract steered to a wellconnected political donor, or regulations written for big businesses that a small startup could never navigate. It’s the taxpayers who foot the bill for government waste, and our entrepreneurs and job seekers who pay the price. Now, we have a path forward to fix this problem. The pledge supports common sense solutions that will set our government on a path to solve problems that affect all of us. This is not about Democrat vs. Republican, this is about fixing a broken system, according to Common Cause. In Chaves County, voter apathy may not be as bad as in other places. Of the county’s 65,645 residents, more than half are registered to vote. The June 2014 primary with a four-way sheriff’s race brought out 17 percent of the county’s voters. While not an outstanding number, that still isn’t bad for a primary, where voter turnout is typically low. In the 2010 General Election, the last time there was an election for governor, 55

The crumbling of the constitution Does the Constitution still matter? When it was written, Ben Franklin said the Founders gave us a republic, “if you can keep it.” Few people thought the republic would last another 227 years, but it has. The Constitution’s limits on government power helped create the most free and prosperous country on earth. But now, some Americans, right and left, give up on the Constitution whenever it gets in the way of policies they like. Some on the right defend antiobscenity laws or want more mingling of church and state, while those on the left want endless economic regulation. Sen. Tom Coburn (R., Okla.) asked President Obama’s Supreme Court pick, Elena Kagan, “If I wanted to sponsor a bill and it said, Americans, you have to eat three vegetables and three fruits every day, does that violate the Commerce Clause?” Amazingly, Kagan wouldn’t say, “Yes, of course!” She dodged the question. Once on the Court, Kagan

was part of the 5-4 majority who concluded the government can force us to buy something much more expensive than fruit and veggies: Obamacare can force us to buy health insurance. Progressives have no problems with that. On my TV show, Ian Millhiser of ThinkProgress.com said government making you buy vegetables isn’t so strange: “I don’t know how to tell you this, but government already makes you buy things like broccoli. What do you think food stamps are? What do you think school lunches are? The government has the power to tax you and buy things with it.” Even creepier than wanting government to have so much power is the way progressives

shift their arguments to get policy outcomes they want. In 2009, Obama said that while Obamacare imposes a penalty on anyone who doesn’t buy health insurance, “Nobody considers that a tax.” The next year, when it appeared the Supreme Court would allow a tax but not a penalty, the New York Times reported, “Administration, Changing Stance, Now Defends Insurance Mandate as a Tax.” How effective is the Constitution if the Supreme Court itself is willing to help the President and Congress weasel their way around the constraints on federal power that the document was intended to impose? Millhiser said that Congress has broad power to regulate commerce, to control things like hiring and firing, but can’t pass laws against rape and murder. I’m glad Millhiser recognizes some limits, although he seems to suggest that the feds can do whatever they want except pass laws that might actually protect people.

Tim Sandefur of the Pacific Legal Foundation came on my show to rebut Millhiser, saying the Founders didn’t expect government to control everything that goes on in the economic realm any more than they expected it to control speech. “The Constitution is a promise about how government power is going to be used. It’s a promise written by people who had experienced life under tyrannical government,” says Sandefur. “The lesson they learned from that and from their knowledge of previous tyrannies was that the most important issue is to wall off government power from our private lives and to make sure that nobody — not elected officials, not a king, not a dictator — gets to dictate how we live our lives.” The Constitution doesn’t get the respect it deserves, but it can still slow the growth of government. In 1895, Congress passed an income tax, but the Supremes said, no, the Consti-

decrease the chances of catching this and many other contagious respiratory infections is by washing hands often. Make sure your kids keep their hands soapy and under the water for about 20 seconds. (That’s about the time it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” twice.) Other things you can do to help prevent infection include: • Tell your kids to avoid touching their nose, mouth or eyes — particularly when they haven’t recently washed their hands. • Wash surfaces frequently touched by a sick child, such as toys or doorknobs. • Avoid sharing cups and utensils. • Stay away from people you know are sick. • Remind your kids to cough or sneeze into their elbow, not

their hands. (Do this yourself, too!) If your child has asthma, be extra-vigilant about his or her asthma care routine. Make sure that he or she takes all medications as prescribed, especially “controller” medications such as a steroid inhaler. Regular use of controller medicines helps keep airway inflammation at bay. This can make all the difference if your child catches enterovirus D68. Also, if your child has asthma, make sure he or she always has “reliever” medicines handy. Don’t jump to conclusions if your child catches a cold, but do keep an eye on it. Most likely it is a simple cold, but stay alert for signs of breathing difficulties. These include

Take precautions to prevent enterovirus infection

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’m very worried about the new enterovirus I’m hearing about. What can I do to protect my kids against it? DEAR READER: Enterovirus D68 is a virus causing an epidemic of respiratory infections. It has been spreading across the news and across the country, making some children quite ill. Infection with the virus can cause nothing more than a garden-variety cold, but sometimes it can lead to serious breathing trouble, particularly for kids with asthma or a history of wheezing. Enteroviruses are nothing new. Each year, these common viruses cause 10 to 15 million infections. Most of these illnesses are mild. Symptoms might include colds, rashes, vomiting, low-

grade fever or mouth sores. But sometimes, as with this particular enterovirus, they can become more serious. So what should you do to protect your kids? To start, do the same things you would normally do during cold and flu season. As with other cold and flu viruses, people get enterovirus D68 by coming into contact with body fluids like saliva and nasal secretions. The best way to

Changing the world one seed at a time OPINION II

Roswell Daily Record

You can count the seeds in an apple, but you can’t count the apples in a seed. If you throw an apple in the trash, the apple and all the seeds that are within it are discarded. It is useless, worthless, ineffective in bringing about any future change. Any potential it once had is gone. If you take an apple seed, plant it properly, and nurture it, what it may do in the future can be immeasurable. It may feed or provide shade for generations to come. It will produce more seeds that will produce more trees that will produce more seeds that will produce more trees. What I am saying is the seeds we plant are more important than the apple that we are. In our lives we need to plant seeds for trees that we may never be able to enjoy. Surveys show that people who think they can change the world are more likely to change the world than those who don’t think they can. For that matter, people who believe they can accomplish anything are more apt to accomplish it than people who don’t believe they can. This world is filled with people who don’t believe they can accomplish things they really need to be accomplishing. What do you believe? I heard a sermon recently where one of the key points was that the most powerful force at mankind’s disposal

coughing frequently, breathing fast or heavy, having trouble talking or looking pale. These are signs you should get medical attention right away. As of now, it appears most kids will recover completely. Epidemics of this type of virus typically peter out by winter. But don’t forget to take the precautions that I

is the “ability to believe.” You can get a group of dogs together and collectively they may believe that they can’t wait until feeding time. But a group of the smartest dogs that ever lived is not going to change the world. A belief is behind anything major that has ever happened in this world. Someone believed we needed to create the country of America. Someone believed that a printing press could mass produce information for a world to read. Someone believed we could fly. And another believed that we could fly to the moon. Someone believed that all of mankind should have civil rights. Someone believed we could communicate instantly with anyone across the globe through electronic media. Someone believed we could cure polio. Someone believed that a person accused of a crime should have a jury of his peers determine if he is guilty or not. Someone believed that eternal life exists because a man predicted his death and resurrection and then died and listed. Better safe than sorry. Finally, don’t let this outbreak distract you from getting flu shots for your kids. The flu is also very common and can be very hard on them again, especially those with asthma.

came back to life. Anyhow, before anything significant has ever come to be, someone believed it. Then words were spoken by that someone. A second person listened and believed also. It spread to a third person and so on. We wake up in our world today because others who came before us believed that something could be done. Everything great that has ever been accomplished was because someone believed it could be. Too often we limit what we can accomplish by not believing big enough. An Ethiopian proverb states, “When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion.” In this proverb the lion’s downfall began with the belief of a single spider. You get the idea. Believing can also lead to evil. Hitler led his country of Germany into beliefs that changed our world forever. It was beliefs that caused 9/11. Terrorist groups continue to spread fear today because of their beliefs. Optimists who believe the best is yet to come typically out perform non optimists who rank higher on IQ test scores. In other words, beliefs are more powerful than knowledge. When we truly believe something, we will stick with it longer believing we can make a difference and bring about change. So do you believe you can change the world? How you answer this question will

Sunday, October 19, 2014

have a direct bearing on whether or not you change the world. Henry Ford put it well when he said, “Whether you think you can, or think you can’t, you are right.” And that is really what life is all about. There are things that you or I will seek to impact because we believe we can bring about change. There are things that we don’t even try because we don’t believe we can make any difference. The popular “Serenity Prayer” asks for wisdom to know the difference. You can change the world where you are right now on your journey of life. And you don’t have to cure cancer. You can change this world one life at a time. Mother Teresa’s advice was “Do not wait for leaders; do it alone, person to person.” Action begins on the inside. If you think you can make a difference in the life of a child, you will likely try to do so. If you don’t think you can, you probably won’t even start. If you think your activity in a noble cause will make the world a better place, you are more apt to make the world a better place. So what makes a “world changer?” It is someone who sees beyond herself and believes that in the life she lives she can make a difference, that she can plant seeds that will leave a positive impact behind. Changing the world doesn’t mean a

person has to take actions that land her on the front page of the newspaper. Sometimes a person’s greatest accomplishment in this world may be the investment she makes in the life of another. It may be tied to what happens in the life of a person who they pour his- or herself into. We always hope that the generation that comes after us flies higher than we fly. What do you think Abraham Lincoln’s parents’ greatest accomplishment was in their lives? What about Billy Graham’s parents? Or Martin Luther King, Jr.’s parents? But let’s move this to an even lower level. If your influence changes the life of another for the better and he in turn is able to “pay it forward,” you are changing the world one life at a time. Mahatma Gandhi said, “I shall pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.” Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. shared, “If I can help somebody as I pass along, if I can cheer somebody with a word or song, if I can show somebody he’s traveling wrong, then my living will not be in vain.” My challenge to you is to change the world. Begin where you are right now. Your past beliefs have brought you to where you

ROSWELL DAILY RECORD CALL 6227710

are on the path today. But what are your current beliefs about the future? What do you need to be doing today? It all begins with a belief that you can change the world. What seeds are you planting? Seeds plus time can equal amazing results. Seeds lead to fruit that leads to other fruit that leads to more fruit. The world is changed through the seeds you plant. We live our days and then they are through. What we receive dies with us, what we give lives on after we are gone. William James puts it this way, “The great use of life is to spend it for something that will outlast it.” Martin Luther King Jr. said, “Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree.” Plant seeds that benefit others and that will live on after you are gone. You may be long gone when the greatest accomplishment of your life occurs. Don’t just accept your life, make your life matter. Be a world changer! Just a thought.

Kids’ safety at Halloween must be planned A6 Sunday, October 19, 2014

Before we talk about Halloween, allow me to thank Ken Oswald, who has been the Safety Manager of Plateau Telecommunications for several years and is moving to another job in another company. Ken has been sending safety topics to hundreds of us around the state. Good luck, Ken. Wishing you smooth sailing and a following sea! Halloween is, to me, just a whole lot of fun. I don’t particularly think of it as a religious holiday (All Hallow’s Eve) and I certainly don’t find anything sacrilegious about it. Yes, a case can be made for either. But I just have some fun with it. Usually, we’ll have a small family party and I will likely be wearing an old man’s mask as I greet the

countless trick-or-treaters coming to my door. Actually, I may not need the mask anymore! Safety, however, must be seriously considered at Halloween time. All motorists need to be especially alert and cautious as they drive on city streets, and especially in those neighborhoods which are favorites for trick-or-treating. Sometimes, cars will be reversed President Harry Truman’s nationalization of the steel industry.

parked on both sides of the street and it is a challenge just to drive in between. Meanwhile, there are kids walking everywhere — on the street, on sidewalks, on the grass, on curbs, and on medians. They are darting in and out from between parked cars, and quite likely may be wearing dark clothing and costumes. We must all be acutely aware of pedestrians on Halloween night. There are several considerations about trick-or treating which parents and grandparents need to observe. Importantly, all children under the age of 12 should be accompanied by parents or by a responsible adult. Before they go out, instruct children to travel only in familiar, well-

T raffic and pedestrian safety rules should be reviewed with your children, even if you are going out with them. They must be reminded to look both ways as they cross the street, and to use crosswalks when possible. Walk, do not run, from house to house and watch out for unseen objects in people’s yards which might cause a fall. Kids should use sidewalks or, if there are none, walk on the edge of the road facing traffic. Once upon a time, we did

not have to be quite so careful with the treats our children got on Halloween, but sadly that is no longer the case in today’s world. We must insist that treats are brought home for inspection before anything is eaten, looking for choking hazards and tampering. It is perhaps a good idea to give children an early meal to help prevent them from filling up on Halloween treats before you have inspected them. And the rule is: when in doubt, throw it out. Another safety consideration for Halloween centers on the costumes our children wear. Certainly, costumes, wigs and accessories should be fire-resistant. Make sure that makeup is nontoxic and test it in

a small area so that you can be sure that it does not irritate the skin or eyes. Also, if they wear masks, be sure that vision is not impaired and that costumes and shoes fit the child well. These things will help to avoid trips and falls. As I said early in this column, Halloween is just great fun. I know that there will be several other activities in addition to trick-ortreat which occur on Oct. 31. Knowing that safety has been considered in all of these activities makes it even more enjoyable. Steve Wolfe is president of the board of the Roswell SAFE Coalition.

Gay-rights group backs use of HIV-prevention pill Roswell Daily Record

NEW YORK (AP) — The largest U.S. gay-rights organization Saturday endorsed efforts to promote the use of a once-a-day pill to prevent HIV infection and called on insurers to provide more generous coverage of the drug. Some doctors have been reluctant to prescribe the drug, T ruvada, on the premise that it might encourage high-risk, unprotected sexual behavior. However, its preventive use has been endorsed by the Centers for Disease

Control and Prevention, the World Health Organization, and many HIV/AIDS advocacy groups The Human Rights Campaign, which recently has been focusing its gay-rights advocacy on same-sex marriage and anti-discrimination issues, joined those ranks with the release of a policy paper strongly supporting the preventive use of Truvada. It depicted the drug as “a critically important tool” in combatting HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.

“HRC does not take this position lightly,” the policy paper said. “We recognize there is still ongoing debate ... and that there are those out there who will disagree with our stance.” T ruvada has been around for a decade, serving as one of the key drugs used in combination with others as the basic treatment for people with HIV. In 2012, the Food and Administration Drug approved it for pre-exposure prophylaxis, or PrEP — in other words, for use

Sunday, October 19, 2014

to prevent people from getting sexually transmitted HIV in the first place. “Today, there is an unprecedented chance to end the HIV/AIDS epidemic, in part through PrEP’s aggressive prevention of new HIV infections,” said Chad Griffin, president of the Human Rights Campaign. “There is no reason — medical or otherwise — to discourage individuals from taking control of their sexual health and talking to their doctor about PrEP.” The CDC says studies

have shown that Truvada, when taken diligently, can reduce the risk of getting HIV by 90 percent or more. Research discussed at the International AIDS Conference in July found that use of the drug does not encourage risky sex and is effective even if people skip some doses. As part of its announcement, the Human Rights Campaign called on insurers, regulators and Truvada’s manufacturer to take steps to reduce costs, raise public awareness, and

make the option available to all medically qualified individuals who could benefit from it, regardless of ability to pay.

KAILUA-KONA, Hawaii (AP) — Hurricane Ana was carving a path south of Hawaii on Saturday morning, producing high waves, strong winds and heavy rains that prompted a flood advisory. The center of the powerful Pacific storm was about 215 miles southwest of the Big Island as it passed and about 165 miles southwest of Honolulu, the National Weather Service said. There was little chance for hurricane conditions on the islands. But the weather service issued a flash-flood warning for the Big Island, a tropical storm watch remained in effect for much of the rest of the archipelago, and the strongest winds were about 80 mph, forecasters said. The Honolulu Star -Advertiser reported that flooding Saturday closed the Mamalahoa Highway near Kawa Flats on the Big Island. “Any of the islands could experience tropical storm impacts ... so it’s important to still prepare and make plans,” said Chris Brenchley, a weather service meteorologist. Waves were expected to

crest to 10 to 15 feet on both the North and South shores of Hawaii’s islands late Saturday and to remain tall through Sunday. The National Weather Service issued a tropical storm watch Saturday morning for much of the islands until further notice. Ana became a Category 1 hurricane earlier in the day when it was about 230 miles south of Hilo. Shortly before midnight, it had maximum sustained winds of 85 mph and was churning along its course at 13 mph. The hurricane was expected to gradually weaken to become a tropical storm again by early Sunday morning, Brenchley said. Swells were picking up on the Big Island’s south shores Friday afternoon, with 15-foot waves seen in Pohoiki Bay. The approaching storm didn’t stop some tourists in Honolulu from spending time around the beach. “We cannot see any threat here,” said Sergei Bygchkov of Vancouver, Canada.

The cost of T ruvada varies widely; a New York State Health Department fact sheet gives a range of $8,000 to $14,000 per year. The manufacturer, California-based Gilead Sciences Inc., has a program that provides assistance to some people who are eligible to use T ruvada but cannot afford it.

Cops: Remains may be those of missing student Hawaii island hit by hurricane winds, rains

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. (AP) — Police searchers found human remains on Saturday that could be those of a University of Virginia sophomore who has been missing since Sept. 13. Further forensic tests are needed to confirm whether the remains are those of Hannah Graham, but Graham’s parents were notified of the preliminary findings, Charlottesville Police Chief Timothy Longo told a news conference. The Albemarle County Police Department also said a volunteer search for Graham that had been planned for Sunday has been canceled so law enforcement can turn their attention to the new evidence. Longo said a search team from the Chesterfield County Sheriff’s Office found the remains on an abandoned property in southern Albemarle County — the same region where police found the body of 20-year-old Virginia Tech student Morgan Harrington three months after she vanished in 2009. Last month, after arresting a suspect in Graham’s disappearance, police said they found a “forensic link” between the two cases. Thousands of volunteers had searched for the 18year -old Graham in the weeks since her disappearance. “Countless hours, thousands of hours, have been

road leading to the site where the remains were found.

Surveillance videos captured some of what Graham did the night she vanished. Authorities say she met friends at a restaurant for dinner Sept. 12 before stopping by two parties at offcampus housing units. She left the second party alone and eventually texted a friend saying she was lost, authorities said.

spent by literally hundreds of law enforcement, civilian volunteers in an effort to find Hannah,” Longo said. “We think perhaps today proved their worth.”

Jesse Leroy Matthew Jr., 32, has been charged with abduction with intent to defile Graham. A preliminary hearing is set for Dec. 4 on the charge. In the meantime, Matthew is being held in the Albemarle-Charlottesville Regional Jail.

Albermarle County Police are now taking over the investigation. County Police Chief Steve Sellers said anyone who may have seen

suspicious activity in the area or may have seen someone who fits Matthew’s description in the area after Graham’s disappearance, should contact police. “Today’s discovery is a significant development and we have a great deal of work ahead of us,” Sellers said. “We cannot and we will not jump to any conclusions regarding today’s discovery, so I ask for the public’s patience as we move forward and pursue what is now a new ongoing death investigation.”

Tempo Restaurant owner Brice Cunningham has said Graham appeared to be incapacitated as she walked away with Matthew. Police have said they have no reason to believe she and Matthew knew each other before their encounter.

Matthew, an operating room technician at the university’s hospital who sometimes drives a taxi, had been drinking at the bar earlier that night before he encountered Graham, Cunningham has said.

Win, lose or draw Thunder BOLDT

I had an interesting exchange with a coworker and friend as I was leaving late Friday night after finishing up getting the paper ready for print for the next day. I mentioned I was going to the Down syndrome Buddy Walk Saturday morning and we discussed whether or not it was a sport. Her opinion was it’s exercise and getting out there and doing something, while my first impression was how could it be a sport if nobody wins? Even if nobody wins, in sports somebody always loses. So how could it be a sport? I should probably mention I have two brothers with Down syndrome and both have passed away from different forms of leukemia. Josh was 15 when he passed away in 2007 and Ben was 12 when he passed away nearly a year to the day of Josh. So the Buddy Walk turned out to be a little more difficult than I was expecting. I have come across kids with Down syndrome a few times and it’s always a little tough, all the memories, good and bad, come flooding back. I remember all the times I took Josh out in the backyard and shot hoops with him or taught him how to throw a baseball. He had more than a couple goose eggs on his head from the baseball, he loved to throw but catching was kind of tricky. Being around those kids reminded me that sometimes sports is about just us, how we learn and grow or just how we are able to relax and blow of f steam. It’s really not about who wins or loses. Yeah, that’s why we get so emotionally invested into “our teams”. But in the end – win, lose or draw - don’t lose track of what is really important and take some time out to shoot some hoops with someone who doesn’t care about the final score.

SPORTS Roswell Daily Record

Coyotes ground the Rockets with a 3-0 win

PAUL LESSARD FOR THE RECORD The Roswell High boy soccer team scored two early goals and coasted to another district victory over their cross-town neighbor, the Goddard Rockets. Amid a sea of pink, for the annual breast cancer awareness game, the Coyotes controlled most of the possessions as they improved to 15-2, 3-1 in district. “We don’t play too hard on Saturdays – I don’t know what it is,” stated Coyote coach James Vernon. “We came out strong in the first half and scored two early goals. I thought we played well. We had most of the possession. Goddard never threatened us I didn’t think. Out defense kept us in it and our goalkeeper did well.” From the onset the Coyotes were the aggressors as Sergio Carvajal had three early chances all in the first four minutes as he missed on a header and two breakaways down the middle. Luis Garcia gave the Coyotes all they would need on the afternoon as he converted a penalty kick at the 6 minute mark. A little less than three minutes later the Coyotes had made the score 2-0. Carvajal got the goal on an assist from Chris Mesquita as the Coyotes were rewarded for continually pressing the action. That would be the final tally for the day as both teams had their chances –

considerably more for Roswell High – but no more goals would be scored. Rocket goalie got his defense to calm down after the second goal and managed to keep the game interesting for the rest of the half. The Rockets didn’t get many chances, but when they did it seemed like Anthony Valadez and Robert Rios were there to shut the door. One of the best chances the Rockets had at getting on the scoreboard was with 12 minutes remaining when Daniel Najera hit a streaking Jesus Chavez, but Valadez was there again on D to thwart the attack. In the final 10 minutes of the half, Garcia had good look which was followed by two good attempts by Mesquita. All the attempts at goal came up short and the half ended 2-0. The second half was played on even terms as both teams had their chances. The Rockets had the first good attempt at cutting into the lead when Jonathan Sanchez battled through two defenders, but his shot was blocked. Mesquita would find Carvajal in the box at the 49th minute, but his shot just went awry. The Coyotes continued to get most of the touches and control most of the possession time, but the Rocket D did just enough to keep the half scoreless. The Rocket defense continued to keep the Coyotes

The Rockets managed two late corner kicks, but both opportunities resulted in no goals while Mesquita had two late chances – one shot that clanged off the post.

Rocket coach Fernando Sosa was pleased with the effort from his team. “We’ve been having trouble with our first 10 minutes…but, after that we’re good. We played some good defense and we were attacking pretty good. It’s just the first 10 minutes.” With the victory, the Coy-

With both teams sporting pink uniforms in support of breast cancer awareness, the Goddard Lady Rockets used three second half goals to down the Roswell High Coyotes 3-0 and now need only one more victory to claim the district title. “Very disappointing,” stated Coyote coach Samantha Ward of her team’s performance. “After the way we played with them two weeks ago, we know we can beat them. They came out and played better than we did. They wanted to win it and we didn’t.” The first half was played on even ter ms as both teams had their opportunities on the rainy, chilly afternoon. Desarae Flores would get the first good early chance as the Rocket sophomore had a nice shot, but the save was made and that’s how the half would continue. The Rockets would continue to try and drive the middle, but Yajayra Castillo was always there to thwart any good shots.

The Coyotes did have their chances as well as Ann Chavez made a good early run down the right side, but Angelica Lara, like Castillo, was there with the steal. Halfway through the half, Danielle Hubbard got past the first line of defense but Castillo was there again. Both Flores and Bethany Alvarez had some good opportunities that resulted in cor ner kicks, but still no goals. With six minutes to go, Chavez sent a great pass into the box, but Rocket goalie Averi Mann was there to make the save. Mann recorded her 8th shutout of the season as the sophomore continued to shine. The Rockets dominated the second half as they started to attack from all angles early in the game and continued it throughout. The Rockets finally broke through with a goal at the 45th minute when Flores managed to get one in after a scrum in front of the Coyote goal. Caitlyn Schmidt would

come out after this bye week and do what we’ve been doing.” Texas A&M (5-3, 2-3 Southeastern Conference) has lost the past three games to teams now ranked in the top 10. The Aggies, once ranked as high as No. 6, have a bye week before facing Louisiana-Monroe. For Alabama (6-1, 3-1), Blake Sims passed for 268 yards and three touch-

downs and scored on a 43yard run while leading the Tide to 35 second-quarter points. Alabama shut down the nation’s No. 4 offense and dominated a game that had produced two straight thrillers. “I think this is as close as we can get to the Alabama football that we want to try to get from our players in terms of effort, toughness, emotional excitement and

The final tally came from Bianca Morones as she put one in after a good cor ner from Hubbard. The goals came with 2:02 to play and all but wrapped up the victory. “The girls played really well today,” stated a happy Rocket coach Betty Elizondo. “started off a little slow but we picked it up. They know (what’s at stake) – they know what they have to do and, right now, they are starting to step it up and do a much better job.” The Rockets can clinch the district title with a win over Artesia on Tuesday. The Rockets struggled with the Lady Bulldogs last week in Artesia in the 1 goal victory. The Coyotes (7-11) host Lovington, a team they beat 10-0 earlier in district play.

Texas A&M reeling after 59-0 loss to No. 7 Alabama

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Kevin Sumlin and Texas A&M have an extra week to try to deter mine what’s gone wrong in a season that once held great promise. It’s going to be a busy seven days. The 21st-ranked Aggies were dominated on both sides of the ball, and from start to finish, in Saturday’s 59-0 loss to No. 7 Alabama that pushed the

losing streak to three games. It was Texas A&M’s first shutout since losing 77-0 to Oklahoma in 2003, and the program’s second-most lopsided defeat. “Coach Sumlin just said, ‘Nobody get down on each other,”’ Aggies quarterback Kenny Hill said. “‘We’re going to need everybody. You can’t point a finger at one person. It’s a group ef fort.’ We just have to

Hagerman Bobcats outlast the Jal Panthers in slugfest The Bobcats welcomed Jal into Bobcat Stadium Friday for the first of two district games on the schedule and it was a slug fest from the start. The Panthers got themselves on top first when they took their first possession and scored with a 1-yard run by Clay Adams. After a two point conversion, Jal was up 8-0. Their lead would quickly diminish on the next and first drive for the Bobcats of fense which ended with a beautiful 41 -yard pass from Alejandro Ramos to Michael Veloz. Hagerman would tie the game at eight after they converted the two point conversion. But, Jal would have a response of their own when once again Clay Adams would take it over the goal line and with another successful two point conversion Jal would take an 8 pt. lead at 16-8. They would exchange possessions and on Hager-

man's third possession Ramos would score from two yards out, the pat failed and the Bobcats were within 2 points, 1614. The 2nd Quarter would begin with another quick strike as Michael Veloz caught a pass from Ramos from 49 yards out and the two point conversion wasgood and the Bobcats took their first lead of the night 22-16. The Hager man squad would score 12 more points before the end of the half with TD's coming from Veloz and Ramos. The half would end with the 'Cats up by 18, 34-16. The second half would start out with a kickof f return by Michael Veloz. The extra point was good and the Bobcats were up 41-16. Jal would score on their opening drive of the second half and the Hagerman lead was down to 41-24. The Bobcats would then respond with

an 80-yard drive capped off by Michael Veloz on a seven-yard run and the lead was 47-24. After Adam Saenz recovered a Jal fumble, Jake Morales found himself on the receiving end of a Ramos throw and the Bobcats were up 53-24. In the 4th, the 'Cats would score again on an 80-yard pass play from Ramos to Veloz and the score was 60-24. Jal wasn't completely done scoring when Adams would once again score for the Panthers and cut the Hagerman lead to 60-32. The Bobcats once again responded when Alex Veloz scored on a 19-yard run.

Any hope for NFL’s bottom feeders?

For all the excitement over the rise of the Cowboys, improvement of the Browns and impressive per for mances by the Chargers, the NFL also is weighed down by some very weak teams. Sure, the Raiders and Jaguars weren’t expected to do much, and both still have shots at matching Detroit’s 0-16 record of 2008. But did anyone expect the Buccaneers, Jets, Rams and Redskins to be so bad? When Jay Gruden, in his first year as Washington’s coach, was asked if he was disappointed in the play of linebacker Brian Orakpo, he responded with an indictment of everyone. It could apply to the other bottom feeders, too. “Well, let me start by saying we’re disappointed in everything about this season so far,” Gruden said. “We still have a lot of games left obviously, but Brian, the whole defense in general, the whole offense, the whole special teams, we’re all disappointed in ourselves and in each other. “That’s just the way it is when you’re 1-5. I don’t think there’s anybody on defense that’s really performing up to par, up to our standards. There’s nobody on offense performing up to our standards.” What’s gone wrong in California, Florida, D.C., Missouri and the Meadowlands, with teams that are collectively 4-31: Oakland (0-5) The only team to fire its coach so far, the Raiders come of f their best performance in a 31-28 loss to San Diego as Tony Sparano

debuted as Dennis Allen’s replacement. Oakland spent freely, if not wisely, in the offseason; the joke around the NFL was that GM Reggie McKenzie had built quite a contender — for 2009. Most of the veteran additions have not worked out. On of fense, the team might have found its quarterback in rookie Derek Carr, but Oakland still has scored the fewest points, averaging less than 16 a game in a high-scoring league. Jacksonville (0-6) The Jaguars have their QB of the future in third overall selection Blake Bortles, but he’s working with no help. Their offense is even more measly than Oakland’s, they don’t have a receiver in the top 20 in catches or yards receiving, and they’ve rushed for a total of 417 yards. Add in allowing a leaguehigh 27 sacks and how much chance does Bortles have to survive, let alone develop this year? “We’re getting closer and closer and closer, but we just haven’t done enough to earn it yet,” said coach Gus Bradley, who is starting eight rookies on offense. “I think that’s what our team is trying to figure out: what else can we do?” Tampa Bay (1-5) This might be the most disappointing situation of all the cellar dwellers. Not only did the Buccaneers bring in a proven coach in Lovie Smith, but they seemed to have a solid talent base everywhere. Things would be more peaceful and productive

under Smith than in predecessor Greg Schiano’s stor my regime. Josh McCown would fill the chasm at quarterback so Mike Glennon could watch and lear n. Doug Martin was back to handle the running duties. Smith is a defensive wizard, but the Bucs rank last in that area. All part of the transition, he believes. “I think experience teaches you a lot. ... I’ve been in this situation before a few different times, and I just believe in what we’re going to do. But when you’re just starting off, there is a reason there’s something new starting off,” Smith said. Jets (1-6) The focus on the quarterback situation — which admittedly is pretty poor right now — has Jets fandom ignoring one other major problem: Rex Ryan’s defense hasn’t been very good. Yes, it improved in Thursday night’s loss at New England. It can rush the passer and has 20 sacks. Its front group, led by Muhammad Wilkerson and Sheldon Richardson, is dangerous. But it’s also inconsistent, and whenever it doesn’t pressure the quarterback, the defense is a sieve. The secondary is particularly weak. Plus, the Jets don’t have the of fense to overcome many defensive deficiencies — although did add speedy receiver/kick retur ner Percy Harvin on Friday in a trade with Seattle.

despite moving the ball with regularity against New England. Rams (1-4) Jeff Fisher’s third season at the helm has been distressing, but unlike some of the other coaches of these messes, Fisher has a decent excuse. The Rams have been ravaged by injuries, including losing starting quarterback Sam Bradford in the preseason. Their receiving group is so-so and will remain that way until Tavon Austin contributes. Worst of all, a team with Robert Quinn leading a staunch pass rush has produced one sack — and not by Quinn. Can DE Chris Long’s absence mean that much? Or are the complex defensive schemes of coordinator Gregg Williams too complicated? Redskins (1-5) Washington’s situation is similar to the Rams. Robert Griffin III went out in Week 2 and backup Kirk Cousins has struggled. Injuries have struck everywhere, and the Redskins are minus-9 in turnover differential, as bad as it gets. The running game needs to carry this team and Alfred Morris is capable of doing so while RG3 tries to get his game back. But it hasn’t happened in great part because the line isn’t opening holes. The Redskins also struggle with fundamentals: sloppy tackling and penalties. And their special teams are mediocre. ——— AP Sports Writers Joseph White and Mark Long contributed to this story.

OXFORD, Miss. (AP) — Bo Wallace threw two touchdown passes and No. 3 Mississippi had another dominating defensive performance in a 34-3 victory over Tennessee on Saturday night. Ole Miss (7-0, 4-0 Southeaster n Conference) fell behind 3-0 early in the second quarter, but scored the next 34 points to continue their best start since 1962. Wallace completed 13 of 28 passes for 199 yards, throwing touchdown passes to Vince Sanders and Evan Engram. Sanders had 108 yards receiving. Ole Miss came into the game giving up just 11.8 points per game, which ranked first in the SEC and second in the country. The Rebels lived up to those numbers, stuf fing Tennessee’s running game and harassing quarterback Justin Worley nearly every time he tried to throw. Worley threw three interceptions and the Volunteers (34, 0-3) also lost a fumble. Tennessee’s young offensive line, which includes two starting freshmen, had no answer for a relentless Ole Miss pass rush. The Rebel had seven sacks, including 2 1/2 from star freshman Marquis Haynes. Senquez Golson grabbed two interceptions, pushing his conference-leading total to seven. Ole Miss has allowed only six touchdowns all season. The Volunteers never came particularly close to the end zone on Saturday and finished with 191 total yards, including zero yards rushing. WEST VIRGINIA 41, NO. 4 BAYLOR 27 MORGANTOWN, W.Va. (AP) — Clint Trickett threw three touchdown passes and West Virginia surprised sloppy Baylor. The Mountaineers (5-2, 3-1 Big 12) earned their first win over a top-five opponent since beating No. 3 Oklahoma in the Fiesta Bowl after the 2007 season. West Virginia sacked Bryce Petty four times and limited the Bears to one touchdown in the second half. Baylor was penalized 18 times for a Big 12-record 215 yards. The old mark of 183 yards was set by Texas Tech against Rice in 2007. Trickett went 23 of 35 for 322 yards, his eighth straight 300-yard game going back to last season. Baylor (6-1, 3-1) couldn’t overcome a double-digit deficit as it did in a 61-58 win over TCU last week. Now the Bears will fall into a group of one-loss teams clawing for position the rest of the season for the College Football Playoff.

NO. 7 ALABAMA 59, NO. 21 TEXAS A&M 0 TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) — Blake Sims passed for 268 yards and three touchdowns and scored on a 43yard run while leading Alabama to 35 second-quarter points. The Crimson Tide (6-1, 3-1 Southeastern Conference) shut down the nation’s No. 4 offense and dominated a game that had produced two straight thrillers. Led by Sims, T.J. Yeldon and Amari Cooper, Alabama outgained the Aggies 602-172. Texas A&M (5-3, 2-3) has lost its past three games, all to teams now ranked in the top 10. Alabama set a school record for most points in a quarter and matched the second-most in a half while racing to a 45-0 halftime lead. Yeldon had 114 yards and two touchdowns on 13 carries, all in the first half. Cooper had eight catches for 140 yards and two touchdowns. NO. 8 MICHIGAN ST. 56, INDIANA 17 BLOOMINGTON, Ind.

The Spartans (6-1, 3-0 Big Ten) have won five straight overall, 13 consecutive games over conference foes and tied the school record with an eighth straight road win in league play. The Hoosiers (3-4, 0-3) had a scary moment when left tackle Jason Spriggs was carted off the field with 4:54 to play and taken away in an ambulance because of a feared neck injury. Team spokesman Jeff Keag said doctors gave Spriggs a “clean bill of health.” Keag did not have any additional information about the injury. NO. 10 GEORGIA 45, ARKANSAS 32 LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Nick Chubb ran for 202 yards and two touchdowns and Georgia dominated on the road for the second straight week. The Bulldogs (6-1, 4-1 Southeastern Conference), playing their second straight game without suspended running back Toddy Gurley, led 38-6 at halftime. They were sparked by a defense that followed up its shutout of

Missouri by forcing three first-half turnovers. Chubb had a pair of firsthalf touchdowns, including a 43-yard sprint, and Hutson Mason added 179 yards on 10-of-17 passing. Georgia has won five straight following a loss at South Carolina on Sept. 13. Jonathan Williams ran for 108 yards for the Razorbacks, (3-4, 0-4). They have lost 16 straight SEC games.

Catalon ran for 102 yards and two scores for the Horned Frogs (5-1, 2-1 Big 12). Oklahoma State (5-2, 31), which had won five in a row, was outgained 676 to 258 and held without a touchdown for the first time since a 27-0 loss to Oklahoma in the 2009 regular-season finale.

Barrett completed his first nine passes, ran for 107 yards and two touchdowns and threw for three more scores for Ohio State.

Abdullah had only 45 yards in the loss to the Spartans on Oct. 4. Northwestern (3-4, 2-2) wasted another big game for freshman Justin Jackson in its second consecutive loss.

Packers’ Sam Shields out vs Carolina SPORTS

Roswell Daily Record

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Green Bay’s defense had all it could handle the first time it faced Cam Newton. Three years after Newton had a breakout performance against Green Bay in his second NFL start, the Packers will have to try to contain the Carolina Panthers’ versatile quarterback without at least one key defensive player. Starting cor nerback Sam Shields won’t play Sunday, when the Panthers come to Green Bay for a game between division leaders. Shields, who leads Green Bay with two interceptions, sustained what coach Mike McCarthy on Friday called a knee strain in the a comeback win over the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.

McCarthy didn’t know if the injury would keep Shields sidelined more than a game. “He’s getting better, though,” McCarthy said. Tied for the NFC North lead, the Packers (4-2) might also be without their other starting cornerback against the NFC South-leading Panthers (32-1). Tramon Williams sustained an ankle injury in the last game. Like Shields, Williams didn’t practice this week, but McCarthy said the team isn’t counting out the veteran player from playing Sunday. Williams is questionable on the injury report. still going “We’re through the process, but he’s better today than he was yesterday,” McCarthy said. The Packers didn’t

practice Friday, but estimated Williams would have been a limited participant had they been on the field. “I think tomorrow will be the biggest indicator, obviously with us going (back) to the practice field,” McCarthy said. “As I stated earlier in the week, we’ll give T ramon Williams every opportunity all the way up to game time to play.” Williams has missed only one game in his eightyear pro career. That came in Week 2 of the 2011 season, when a shoulder injury kept Williams from playing the last time Green Bay and Carolina met. Green Bay won that game at Carolina, 30-23. McCarthy referred to Williams as “an old-school pro” for his high rate of

durability, playing in 128 of Green Bay’s 129 games (including playoffs) since 2007. “I don’t think there’s any question when we got back here Monday that he was going to do everything that he could to play in this game,” McCarthy said. Green Bay spent this week preparing the young tandem of Davon House and Casey Hayward to fill in at cornerback if it has to play without both Shields and Williams on Sunday. House and Hayward have played a lot in situational roles on defense this season. House has made two starts as the nickel cornerback, contributing an interception and a forced fumble. Hayward had his first interception of the season in the last game

ward are needed for enhanced roles Sunday. “I feel very fortunate,” Capers said. “I think the depth in our secondary is probably as good as it has been.”

Manuel R. Matta

Manuel R. Matta was surrounded by his family when God called him to his eternal home on Wednesday, Oct. 15, 2014. A rosary is scheduled for 9:30 a.m., Monday, Oct. 20, 2014, at St. Peter’s Catholic Church and Mass will follow at 10 a.m., Monday, Oct. 20, 2014, also at St. Peter’s Catholic Church with Father Charlie Martinez officiating. Burial will follow at South Park Cemetery. Manuel R. Matta was born on June 19, 1936, in Big Spring, TX. He moved to Roswell, NM, with his family when he was a child and has lived there his entire life. In 1955, Manuel met and married the love of his life, Gloria Melendez Matta, and celebrated their 59th wedding anniversary in August 2014. Manuel left school at an early age to work to help support his family. However, he was a self-educated man and was very intelligent and skilled in many areas. He was known as an excellent carpenter and could build and fix just about everything. He made beautiful furniture, stain glass, and wrought iron work. He also taught himself how to play the guitar and would entertain his family with his music and also played for the church choir in his younger years. He was always knowledgeable of world events and could always be relied on to give you all the latest news. He was an awesome storyteller and would share his life experiences with his children and grandchildren which often lead to much laughter. Manuel was of the Catholic faith and served the Lord in many ways. In healthier days, he served as an Eucharistic minister and was involved in the Cursillo movement, and as a musician in the church choir. He shared his faith in God with his family and friends. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping during his younger years, but in his

later years, he found his joy in spending time with his family. He loved his family very much. He was a loving husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, and great-great-grandfather. He will always be loved and will be greatly missed by family and friends. Manuel was preceded in death by his parents, Manuel Matta and Trinidad Ramirez. He is also preceded in death by his brothers, Robert Matta and Daniel Matta and sisters, Nico Rodriguez, Emma Martinez and Irene Aguilar. Those left to cherish his memory are his loving wife of 59 years Gloria Melendez Matta; daughters Jeanette Gonzales and husband Ross, Arlene Matta and Lorraine Kay Gutierrez and husband Alex; brothers Ar mando Matta, Ruben Matta and Joe Marquez; sisters Sally Flores and Alicia Velasco; grandchildren Yvette Gonzales, Jennifer Gonzales, Sarah Gonzales, Erique Gutierrez, Candace Clark and Jonathan Gutierrez; 16 great-grandchildren and one greatgreat-grandchild. Arrangements have been entrusted to Ballard Funeral Home and Crematory. An online registry can be accessed at ballardfuneralhome.com “We little knew that mor ning that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly; in death we do the same. It broke our Hearts to lose you; you did not go alone; for part of us went with you, The day God called you home. You Left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide; and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, the Chain will link again.”

MANHATTAN TRANSFER FOUNDER DIES AT 72

NEW YORK (AP) — Tim Hauser, the founder and singer of the Grammy-winning vocal troupe The Manhattan T ransfer, died Thursday from cardiac arrest, band representative JoAnn Geffen said Friday. He was 72. Hauser founded Manhattan Transfer, who released their debut album in the early 1970s and launched hits such as “Operator” and “The Boy from New York City.” They went on to win multiple pop and jazz Grammy Awards. Their critically acclaimed album, 1985’s “Vocalese,” earned a whopping 12 Grammy nominations. Alan Paul, Janis Siegel and Cheryl Bentyne — who joined in 1978 and replaced Laurel Masse — rounded out the foursome. “Tim was the visionary behind The Manhattan

Transfer,” they said in a statement. “It’s incomprehensible to think of this world without him.”

Hauser first formed Manhattan T ransfer in 1969 with Erin Dickins, Marty Nelson, Gene Pistilli and Pat Rosali. They disbanded and Hauser met some of the band’s new members as a taxi driver in New York City. He met a conga player while driving who introduced him to Siegel and he also met Masse while driving.

Hauser was born in Troy, New York. He is survived by his wife Barb Sennet Hauser, his son Basie and his daughter Lily.

Manhattan Transfer will continue their upcoming tour despite Hauser’s death. Their next show is Oct. 23 in Manchester, New Hampshire.

Bishops scrap welcome to gays in sign of split VATICAN CITY (AP) — Catholic bishops scrapped their landmark welcome to gays Saturday, showing deep divisions at the end of a two-week meeting sought by Pope Francis to chart a more merciful approach to ministering to Catholic families. The bishops approved a final report covering a host of issues related to Catholic family life, acknowledging there were “positive elements” in civil heterosexual unions outside the church and even in cases when men and women were living together outside marriage. They also said the church must respect Catholics in their moral evaluation of “methods used to regulate births,” a seemingly significant deviation from church teaching barring any for m of artificial contraception. But the bishops failed to reach consensus on a watered-down section on ministering to homosexuals. The new section had stripped away the welcoming tone of acceptance contained in a draft document earlier in the week. Rather than considering gays as individuals who had gifts to of fer the church, the revised paragraph referred to homosexuality as one of the problems Catholic families face. It said “people with homosexual tendencies

must be welcomed with respect and sensitivity,” but repeated church teaching that marriage is only between a man and a woman. The revised paragraph failed to reach the twothirds majority needed to pass. Two other paragraphs concerning the other hotbutton issue at the synod of bishops — whether divorced and civilly remarried Catholics can receive Communion — also failed to pass. The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said the failure of the paragraphs to pass meant that they have to be discussed further to arrive at a consensus at a meeting of bishops next October. It could be that the 11862 vote on the gay paragraph was a protest vote of sorts by progressive bishops who refused to back the watered-down wording and wanted to keep the issue alive. The original draft had said gays had gifts to offer the church and that their partnerships, while morally problematic, provided gay couples with “precious” support. New Ways Ministry, a Catholic gay rights group, said it was “very disappointing” that the final report had backtracked from the welcoming words contained in the draft.

Nevertheless, it said the synod’s process “and openness to discussion provides hope for further development down the road, particularly at next year’s synod, where the makeup of the participants will be larger and more diverse, including many more pastorally-oriented bishops.” A coalition of small prolife groups, Voice of the Family, said the outcome of the meeting had only contributed to “deepening the confusion that has already damaged families since the sexual revolution of the 1960s.” The gay section of the draft report had been written by a Francis appointee, Monsignor Bruno Forte, a theologian known for pushing the pastoral envelope on ministering to people in “irregular” unions. The draft was supposed to have been a synopsis of the bishops’ interventions, but many conservatives complained that it reflected a minority and overly progressive view. Francis insisted in the name of transparency that the full document — including the three paragraphs that failed to pass — be published along with the voting tally. The document will serve as the basis for future debate leading up to the October 2015 meeting of bishops

which will produce a final report for Francis to help him write a teaching document of his own.

“Personally I would have been very worried and saddened if there hadn’t been these ... animated discussions ... or if everyone had been in agreement or silent in a false and acquiescent peace,” Francis told the synod hall after the vote. Conservatives had harshly criticized the draft and proposed extensive

revisions to restate church doctrine, which holds that gay sex is “intrinsically disordered,” but that gays themselves are to be respected, and that marriage is only between a man and a woman. In all, 460 amendments were submitted. “We could see that there were different viewpoints,” said Cardinal Oswald Gracis of India, when asked about the most contentious sections of the report on homosexuals and divorced and remar-

ried Catholics. German Cardinal Walter Kasper, the leader of the progressive camp, said he was “realistic” about the outcome. In an unexpected gesture after the voting, Francis approached a group of journalists waiting outside the synod hall to thank them for their work covering the meeting. Francis has rarely if ever approached a scrum of journalists, except during his airborne press conferences.

Wilson-Cobb History and Genealogy Society to host workshop, teach better ways of researching

BY DYLANNE PETROS VISTAS EDITOR

For people who have always been interested in family history but didn’t know where to start, there is the Wilson-Cobb History and Genealogy Library right here in Roswell. If people don’t know where to start looking into their family history, the library is hosting its 20th workshop Oct. 25. The library has been in existence since 1999, because some residents were worried about what might happen to their family history documents in the future.

“There were a group of ladies that were very concerned about what was going to happen to their genealogical materials when something happened to them. They decided the best thing would be if there was some type of library and they decided to start one,” said Kay Lewis, secretary of the library. Over the past 15 years, the library has collected more than 5,000 books and 10,000 periodicals for people to use in their research, Lewis said. The library also has computers and subscriptions to three different genealogy websites for people to use. The goal of the workshop,

which will be at the Convention Center and start at 8:30 a.m., is “to educate people,” Lewis said. “It’s to teach them better methods of research or what’s available to research,” she said. Each year at the workshop, there is a different genealogical lecturer. This year’s lecturer is David Rencher, the chief genealogical officer for FamilySearch, which is located in Salt Lake City. Rencher’s specialty is Irish research, Lewis said. “We’re gonna have him do a talk on Irish research,” she said. Along with the talk on Irish research, Rencher will talk about FamilySearch, understanding

name lists and how to organize research that was gathered. “We try to get a variety of topics so that there is something for everybody,” Lewis said. Along with Rencher, there will be a book vendor from Ft. Worth, Texas, who will be selling books in between the lectures. The vendor, Bob Gordon, is the largest genealogical book vendor in the Southwest, Lewis said, and will be bringing more than 3,000 books to the workshop. When the workshop first started, it was hosted at First Presbyterian Church, but the library See WORKSHOP, Page C2

Dexter Elementary School recently hosted its Reading Round Up, where all students received three free books. The community came out to celebrate reading with games, like football and bobbing for apples, and food.

How to make a bouquet topic on Creative Living on Tuesday, Saturday

Information on making a wrapped bouquet, projects with candy melts, and making a fleece quilt will be the featured topics on “Creative Living” on Tuesday, Oct. 21, at 9:30 p.m. and on Thursday, Oct. 23, at noon. Floral designer, Carly Cylinder will show how to not only wrap a bouquet to give to someone, but will also talk about design principles and how to use various products to create an easy professional look. Her company is Flour LA and Flour LA Jr., and she lives in Brooklyn, New York. Nancy Siler is with Wilton Brands in Woodridge, Illinois, and she’s going to show lots of fun projects to make using candy melts. She’ll talk about how to dip storebought cookies, as well as homemade cookies, how to dip and decorate pretzels, rice cereal treats and even spoons. Sewing instructor Nancy Lovett says that piecing fleece to make quilts is very bulky. She’s going to show a non-traditional technique that reduces all of the bulk and results in a very beautiful quilt. She’s from Albuquerque. Information on jewelry, using a serger and doing coverstitching will be the featured topics on “Creative Living” on Tuesday, Oct. 21, at noon and on Saturday, Oct. 25, at 2 p.m.

Jacqueline Davis, independent representative for Silpada Designs, will talk about semi-precious stones, oxidation, jewelry cleaning, and how to layer jewelry for multiple “looks.” She’s from Clovis. Vivian Lavinskas is the manager of Consumer Affairs for Singer Sewing Co., and she will explain about flatlock stitching, which is usually sewn using a 3-thread serger. However, you can easily reproduce this popular effect using the blindhem and other stitches built in to most sewing machines. She is from LaVergne, Tennesee. Lovett will demonstrate how to do hems with coverstitching, which resembles those you see in readymade garments. Lovett represents Ann Silva’s Bernina Sewing Center.

Fun with Candy Melts

There are so many fun things to do with homemade or store bought cookies. For instance, you can add colored sugars to white dipped wafer cookies. Or double dipping chocolate chip cookies in different colors of melted candy wafers. Another idea has to do with pretzels. You can add hibiscus icing decorations on dipped pretzels. Rice cereal treats are easy to make and always a favorite — try dipping them in melted candy and then

Showin’ off their talents

Silver Taps

add jumbo stars, nonpareils and even cinnamon drops to each one. Here’s an unusual idea for you: Use plastic spoons and dip the spoon part in candy and use an assortment of decorations, such as rainbow chips, nonpareils, sugar pearls and jimmies for decorations. Another favorite is to dip various fruit in the melted chocolate and add piped zebra shapes or drizzle different colors of melted candy on strawberries.

Dipped marshmallows are fun to make. Dip each one in the candy melt of your choice, and then thread three or four on long skewers or sticks. They can be displayed in a Styrofoam block. For the ultimate treat, make a pan of candy bark from Cocoa Candy melts, banana chips, pecans, cherries, small marshmallows and rainbow nonpareils. After the candy sets up, you can break it in edible size pieces. Serve in dessert dishes for an elegant presentation. “Creative Living” is produced and hosted by Sheryl Borden. The show is carried by more than 118 PBS stations in the United States, Canada, Guam and Puerto Rico and is distributed by Westlink, Albuquerque.

quickly outgrew the venue. “We started getting better speakers and more people wanting to attend,” Lewis said. When the workshop first started, there were only around 35 attendees but now there are between 90-100 attendees from New Mexico, Texas and Arizona, said Nancy Siders, member of the library. Registration for the workshop is $55. “It’s our major fundraiser of the year,” Lewis said. With the money they raise from the workshop, the library plans on buying new shelves for the books and periodicals and a 40- or 42-inch television. “We do webinars for the Genealogy Society that meets here,” Lewis said. “It’ll be a

lot better for them to view webinars.” Another reason for the workshop is to teach people how to effectively find people in their family tree. “Everybody has brick walls. You have those members of the family that are just impossible to find. We are always going to conferences and stuff like this just to get … information,” Siders said. The workshop will start at 8:30 a.m. and go until 4 p.m. with a catered lunch break. People may register for the workshop by going to the Wilson-Cobb History and Genealogy Library, located at 301 S. Richardson Ave. Vistas Editor Dylanne Petros can be reached at 622-7710 ext. 307 or at vistas@rdrnews.com.

David Cronenberg writes first novel, ‘Consumed’ To finish his first novel, David Cronenberg had to work around a few other projects. Like the four movies he completed over the past eight years. “I would actually have to leave what I was writing for a year and a half and literally not think about it,” said the Canadian filmmaker known for “Dead Ringers,” “Naked Lunch” and his latest, “Map of the Stars.” “So I had concerns about continuity, that it was this sort of startand-stop thing,” he adds. “Somehow, it seemed to work.” Cronenberg begins his fiction career at age 71 with “Consumed,” an intellectual, macabre thriller of sex, violence and bodily transformation — themes not unfamiliar to fans of Cronenberg’s movies. The protagonists are freelance journalists caught up in a mysterious case of murder and cannibalism, a story inspired in part by the life of Louis Pierre Althusser, a French Marxist who strangled his wife. Interviewed recently at the offices of his U.S. publisher, Scribner, Cronenberg said that publisher Nicole Winstanley of Penguin Canada had suggested he try a novel. He set himself a goal of two pages a day and found the experience close to directing, a narrative for which he had a final say on casting, lighting, editing, sound effects and special effects. “The only thing you can do as a screenwriter is the narrative and the dialogue,” he says. Directors have long felt

an affinity with literary writers, although few have triumphed in both fields.

Elia Kazan wrote several novels after his movie career faded, and Jean Renoir wrote a handful of short fiction works in the last years of his life. More recently, Ethan Coen has published stories and poems, and Neil Jordan of “The Crying Game” has completed several novels and story collections. For years, Woody Allen has contributed stories to The New Yorker.

TORY BURCH BOOK GIVES LOOK AT WHAT INSPIRES HER

DALLAS (AP) — Tory Burch’s new book is all about color, a compilation of all of the influences that inspire her, from people to music to art to culture to travel to home design. “It’s this eclectic mix and that’s really what our company’s about as well, so it made perfect sense. It was really taking all the references that inspire us,” Burch told The Associated Press while in Dallas for an event Friday helping to kick off the release of her first book.

“Tory Burch In Color,” released Tuesday (Abrams), is arranged by color, with each chapter featuring photographs and anecdotes related to a different hue. The New York-based designer said the book really came together once she decided to arrange it that way. “After many months of trying to figure out the format, we printed out all the pictures and laid them on the floor and I just started to sort it by color and it just really started to take

Roswell Daily Record shape and come to life,” Burch said.

The book includes photographs of trips Burch’s parents took and snapshots from vacations she has gone on with her children, interiors of homes, images of works of art and fashions from her collections. Also featured are music playlists, reading suggestions and interviews with notable people, including Hillary Rodham Clinton and Carolina Herrera.

John Sayles has managed parallel careers, directing “Eight Men Out” and “Passion Fish,” among others, while writing wellregarded short stories and novels. He prefers completing a book without interruption, noting that he worked on his nearly 1,000-page historical tale, “A Moment in the Sun,” during a Writers Guild of America strike. Film projects took up so much time while he was writing “Los Gusanos,” published in 1991, that when Sayles returned to the novel, he realized he had a scene with a dead man in the trunk of a car and he had forgotten why he was there. “So I had one of the cops just say, ‘That’s going to be one of life’s unexplained mysteries,”’ Sayles said. “It’s a good idea when you have to leave a book for a while to make some good notes.”

Gus Van Sant, whose experimental novel “Pink” came out in 1997, said he doesn’t consider himself “the most natural writer,” but still enjoyed the work and only wished he had worked harder.

Star Wars 7 rumors leaving fans confused What’s new with Star Wars 7? A couple years ago, when Star Wars was officially purchased by Disney, some fans cringed while some hoot and hollered for joy as their longtime favorite franchise was finally going to continue. There were so many unanswered questions. Would it be a flop like the prequel series? Or would it have the same epic feel as the sequel series? Which, if any, of the expanded universe (books and fan fiction) storylines would it take? Should we even get excited about this? Will it stop at three more movies or can fans expect mini-series? Well, hardly any of those questions have been answered and will likely remain that way except one: We are getting Star Wars Episode VII, and it is set to release Dec. 18, 2015. But what do we know about the film? It started filming in May 2014 and will be the first live-action Star Wars film since 2005’s “Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith.” It will take place 30 years after the Battle of Endor and “Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.” It will still revolve around the stories of Luke, Leia and Han, which is why it takes place 30 years later since the actors who portrayed them have aged considerably. As far as directing it, it will be J.J. Abrams, who also will be co-writing the new movie. He has quite a bit of science fiction experience considering he directed the most recent “Star Trek” movies and “Super 8.” He also said he has been a lifelong Star Wars fan, so perhaps he

JOHN LEE

THE FINAL FRONTIER

is the perfect choice to direct the new movies. There are conflicting reports about what the content of the screenplay is, probably to keep fans guessing for the next 14 months. Some say it is solely focused on Luke, Princess Leia and Han Solo. Others say it is focused on the adventures of Luke Skywalker and the offspring of Leia and Han. So what’s up with casting? Obviously Luke Skywalker will be played by Mark Hamill and has been suggested to serve a Kenobi-esque influential role. Carrie Fisher will return to play Leia and the legendary Harrison Ford will return to play Han Solo. Rumor has it that Ford’s role will be huge while the jury is still out on Fisher’s role. While we are on the topic of Han Solo, it has been suggested that there could be a young Han Solo and Chewbacca mini-series in the works. Yes, Chewbacca will be in the new movie as well, played by Peter Mayhew, the seven-foot, three-inch British actor who wore the costume in the original series. Anthony Daniels and Kenny Baker will return to their droid roles of C3PO and R2-D2. So who are the new characters? Just as George Lucas would have it, the young actors that have been brought on board are relatively unknown. Adam Driver has been confirmed and is supposedly playing the antagonist. Other actors confirmed

to be filming it are John Boyega (“Attack the Block,” “24”), Daisy Ridley, Andy Serkis (“Rise/Dawn of the Planet of the Apes,” “The Hobbit: The Unexpected Journey”), Domhnall Gleeson (Harry Potter series, “True Grit”) and Mac von Sydow (“Minority Report,” “Shutter Island,” “Robin Hood” (2010) are just a handful of actors. All of these actors other than Ridley have decently impressive resumes. Also of ficially announced is Oscar-winning Lupita Nyong’o and Gwendoline Christie, who plays Brienne of Tarth on “Game of Thrones.”

Mysteries surrounding the next film include Boba Fett (who is rumored to have a spinoff movie), Yoda (also said to have a spin-off), ObiWan Kenobi (rumored to be a part of the movie), Emperor Palpatine (the expanded universe told he had a clone of himself; also rumored to be a part in the next movie), Lando Calrissian and of course John Williams (legendary composer for the series). I do know one thing, I don’t know what I would do if Williams isn’t writing the score for the next movie; there would be something wrong.

I am very excited about the new movie. Although I have bashed Hollywood for the number of remakes they have, Star Wars is more than just a movie series. Star Wars is a large part of our culture and deserves to have an installment consistently from now until the end of time.

The Staff at Pro Active Hearing LLC, includes from left, Richard Jones, Michelle Jones, and Howard Allman.

Hearing specialist looks to provide service to community BY SHANNON SEYLER SPECIAL TO THE RECORD

Have you heard about Pro Active Hearing LLC? This Roswell business, owned by Michelle Jones, is dedicated to helping patients with a wide array of hearing-related needs. Jones was for merly associated with Allman Hearing Health Care, a company she later purchased. “Now it’s called Pro Active Hearing LLC,” she says, “and I hope to be known for being proactive in giving back to my community and the areas I service by offering free ear checks, free hearing evaluations, free cleanings and consumer education. “We’re doing everything we can to educate the public about hearing aids and hearing loss, as well as providing information about dementia and Alzheimer’s,” Jones said. Jones studied with the Starkey Hearing Foundation in Minnesota, in addition to the International Hearing Society of Livonia, Michigan. As a result of this specialized training, she can make custom ear molds and custom ear protection. “By staying up to date with the latest technologies,” Jones explains, “I’m able to advise patients and explain the dif ferences in hearing

aids.” Other services provided by Pro Active Hearing include checking ears for cerumen (earwax) and the cleaning and repair of hearing aids. “I work with fitting hearing aids, and I can also help people who are dissatisfied with products they’ve purchased elsewhere.” The commitment to patients isn’t merely a one-time event, but an ongoing process. As the company’s website states, “One of the best things about Pro Active Hearing LLC is our dedication to not only diagnosing your hearing impairment, but striving to help you manage it on an ongoing basis.” The site further stresses the company’s commitment to an individualized approach to each and every patient. “Because we evaluate all your hearing and communication needs, we will recommend a treatment plan that is unique to you and designed to meet your needs.” Her spouse, Richard, also works at Pro Active Hearing, and serves as the company’s of fice manager. Michelle Jones believes in not only offering hearing assistance to her patients, but in staying active within her community. She is a member of the Roswell Chamber of Commerce.

She’s also a member of Sertoma Inc., which is particularly appropriate, since the organization specializes in helping people who are facing hearing loss issues. The group’s name is formed from the words “Service to Mankind,” and is wellknown for its ongoing activism with hearingrelated charitable work.

When it comes to doing business in Roswell, Jones observes, “People are so nice. I’m looking forward to all the new things that the City of Roswell Planning and Zoning Department will be doing, and what Mayor Dennis Kintigh is doing with all the old buildings, tearing them down. There are so many community functions here, along with associations to help people, and activities to get involved with.” Between operating her business and her various community commitments, Jones doesn’t have a great deal of spare time for hobbies, but notes, “When I retire, I’d like to try my hand at painting and quilting.” If you’d like to hear more about options for hearing loss and other related issues, Pro Active Hearing LLC is listening.

Philip Morris Int’l 3Q profit falls 8 percent

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — Philip Morris International’s third-quarter profit dropped 8 percent as cigarette sales fell in the overseas markets that it serves and it was hurt by foreign exchange rates for the U.S. dollar. The seller of Marlboro and other cigarette brands outside the United States said Thursday that it ear ned $2.15 billion, or $1.38 per share, in the quarter, down from $2.34 billion, or $1.44 per share, a year ago. On an adjusted basis, it ear ned $1.39 per share, beating Wall Street estimates by 6 cents, according to Zacks Investment Research. Excluding excise taxes, revenue fell about 1 percent to $7.86 billion. Analysts expected revenue of $7.74 billion. Its shares rose 48 cents to $84.06 in morning trading Thursday. Cigarette shipments fell less than 1 percent to 222.3 billion cigarettes. Total Marlboro volumes fell 3.5 percent to 72.6 billion cigarettes. Shipments fell 2 percent in Latin America and Canada and 1.3 percent in Asia. Shipments were up less than 1 percent in the company’s region that encompasses Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa, as well as in the European Union. Still, the company said its retail market share

This Jan. 17, 2008, file photo shows a pack of Marlboro cigarettes in Bremen, Germany. Cigarette maker Philip Morris International Inc., which sells Marlboros and other U.S. brands abroad, on Thursday said its third-quarter profit dropped 8 percent as cigarette sales fell in the overseas markets that it serves and it was hurt by foreign exchange rates for the U.S. dollar.

increased in a number of key regions, including Argentina, France, Germany, Italy, Russia, Spain and Switzerland. Smokers face tax increases, bans, health concerns and social stigma worldwide, but the effect of those on cigarette demand generally is less stark outside the United States. Philip Morris International has compensated for volume declines by raising prices and cutting costs. Because it does all its business overseas, the company also has to navigate changes in currency values. A stronger dollar cuts into

revenue generated overseas when it’s translated back into dollars. The company on Thursday cut its full-year earnings forecast to a range of $4.76 and $4.81 per share. Philip Morris International said Thursday that it’s planning to launch Marlboro HeatStick and an accompanying device called iQOS (pronounced EYEcohs) in Nagoya, Japan, early next month, including the opening of a flagship iQOS store. The product also is expected to be released in Milan, Italy, later this year.

Ebola causing some people to change travel plans DALLAS (AP) — Travel agents say customers are asking whether it’s safe to fly, and what steps they should take to guard against Ebola. The virus has killed more than 4,500 in West Africa since the current outbreak began several months ago. Several people who contracted the disease there have been treated in the United States, but only three cases have been diagnosed in the U.S., all in Dallas. Two of those victims flew on commercial flights shortly before falling ill. To put that in perspective, on an average day, about 2 million people fly on domestic and international flights operated by U.S. airlines. Still, Ebola fear increased when officials disclosed that a nurse tested positive for the virus just over 24 hours after getting off a Frontier Airlines plane from Cleveland to Dallas-Fort Worth. Frontier has grounded the plane and notified hundreds of passengers on seven flights involving the same jet. Frontier President Barry Biffle emailed employees Friday to tell them the nurse may have been at a more advanced stage of the illness than previously thought. He said the CDC has assured the Denverbased airline that crewmembers on the flights she took are at a very low risk of exposure. The airline put the pilots and flight attendants on leave for 21 days, which health experts consider the outer limit of how long it would take someone exposed to Ebola to

become sick. Biffle said passengers on the flights have also been notified. Tim Husted, a travelerservices executive for Carlson Wagonlit T ravel, a huge agency with offices around the world, said that fewer than 1 percent of the company’s leisure travelers have changed a booking because of Ebola. There is even less of a reaction among business he said, travelers, although a few have requested routes that avoid Dallas. Maryann Cook, a travel agent in New York, said that a Florida doctor who booked a $197,000 family

safari trip to South Africa for 30 people next year wants to rebook it for 2016, even if it means losing a $60,000 deposit. “He didn’t feel a real urgency because South Africa is so far away from the problem spot,” Cook said, “but he got a lot of stress from his children and his children’s children.” She said most of her other customers are still booking and still traveling. Blake Fleetwood, another New York travel agent, said that a client who booked travel to India is worried about a stopover in London, where there

could be a greater chance of exposure to travelers from West Africa. “We’re hearing from everyone. Even people flying domestically are very nervous,” Fleetwood said. He reassures them that flying is safer than other for ms of travel. But he understands — and shares — their anxiety. “I wouldn’t fly on Frontier Airlines,” Fleetwood said. “I know that’s a crazy thing to say, but I just wouldn’t want my mind to be bothered. I would take another airline.” Calls about travel insurance are also rising. Some people who bought insur-

ance and now want to cancel their trip because of anxiety are finding out that the insurance won’t help, said Megan Singh, marketing manager for SquareMouth.com, a travel-insurance-comparison website. “That really is canceling out of fear, and it’s not covered by most standard policies,” she said. Singh said consumers can buy a policy that lets them cancel for any reason, but it will cost 40 to 50 percent more than standard policies that run about 6 to 11 percent of the trip’s cost. Some notes about Ebola

and travel: • The U.S. government against cautions nonessential travel to Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone. The Obama administration has resisted Republican calls for a ban on travel from those countries. • Travelers leaving those three countries are screened at the airport for fever, a symptom of the disease. U.S. officials say about 150 passengers a day from one of those countries enters the United States. They are screened again if they enter at one of five big international airports. • Health experts and the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention say the risk of getting Ebola in the U.S. is extremely low and can happen only by direct contact with vomit, diarrhea or other bodily fluids of an infected and sick person. Dr. Robert Murphy, director of the Center for Global Health at Northwestern University’s medical school, said there is only a minuscule chance of catching Ebola on an airplane in the U.S. because the virus is not airborne. His recommendation for travelers? Use hand sanitizer — to protect against the flu virus, which is airbor ne and much more common. • Airlines say they clean their planes every night according to CDC recommendations, including the use of heavy-duty cleansers on ar mrests, tray tables and in lavatories.

Constitution takes trip before 3-year restoration

BOSTON (AP) — Old Ironsides took one last trip around Boston Harbor on Friday ahead of a major, multi-year restoration project, firing its cannons while the Dropkick Murphys punk band and a Boston Pops quintet entertained hundreds of special guests and dignitaries on board. The USS Constitution, the world’s oldest commissioned warship still afloat, was pushed along by a tugboat, its sails already taken down as it prepares to enter dry-dock for the repairs, which the Navy says could take about three years. The three-mast frigate, which earned its nickname after winning battles during the War of 1812 against Great Britain, gave a traditional 21-gun salute to Fort Independence on Castle Island, one of the oldest fortified sites in the country. It also gave a 17-gun salute at the Coast Guard’s Boston base and it’s all activeduty Navy crew laid a wreath in the harbor to honor the armed forces branch, which turned 239 years old this week. Gov. Deval Patrick and other high-ranking navy officials were among the 500 or so guests on board for the three-hour cruise.

“It was amazing,” said Bill Poole, a member of the Lexington Minute Men who was dressed in his Revolutionary War era garb. “It’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience to be on a ship of such antiquity.” Virginia Hart, an Easton resident who watched as the ship fired its cannons off Fort Independence, said: “That’s our history. She’s such an integral part of the United States.” Built in Boston and launched in October 1797, the USS Constitution was among the first warships of the new nation. It was commissioned by the U.S. Navy following the Revolutionary War in order to protect American merchant ships off the northern coast of Africa. For the most part, the USS Constitution still will be open for public tours until it officially enters dry dock in March 2015. The repair work is expected to involve re-coppering the ship’s hull, replacing worn riggings, changing out old planks on the gun and berth decks and making general repairs to the stern, bow and captain’s cabin. Dave Werner, spokesman for the Naval History and Heritage Command, which is overseeing the project, said the ship repairs

will cost about $12 million to $15 million and be paid for by the Navy. The last time the Constitution was dry docked for major repairs was 1995, in preparation for its

bicentennial. Some repairs were done while the ship was still in the harbor from about 2007 to 2010. The USS Constitution is expected to be back in the water by

2017. By spring or summer 2018, it should return to its familiar spot at the Navy Yard pier, where it has been a major tourist destination, with more than 500,000 visitors a year.

High court clears bullet train but problems remain SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California will forge ahead with plans to build the nation’s first bullet train by buying land in the Central Valley and demolishing buildings in the path of the $68 billion rail line after the state Supreme Court decided not to hear an appeal from opponents of the project. The California Supreme Court’s decision Wednesday to reject an appeal of a lower court ruling allowing Gov. Jerry Brown’s signature transportation project to proceed was another win for the beleaguered project that has suffered repeated legal setbacks. Demolition and engineering work has already begun around Fresno, one of the hubs on the first 28-mile stretch of highspeed rail planned for the Central Valley, but the agency is far behind schedule in acquiring all the land needed to actually begin construction, and the state has only found a fraction of the money needed before tracks will be installed. One of the arguments made by the plaintiffs, Kings County and landowners

The California Supreme Court’s decision Wednesday to reject an appeal of a lower court ruling allowing Gov. Jerry Brown’s signature transportation project to proceed was another win for the beleaguered project that has suffered repeated legal setbacks.

in the Central Valley, was that the state failed to identify the funding for the first useable segment of the rail line, having only $6 billion of the estimated $26 billion needed for the first 130 miles. At Brown’s request, the Legislature this year approved the first permanent funding source for the project, setting aside a portion of the annual fees the state collects through carbon taxes, a symbolic move that will deliver more money for rail but not billions a year. Dan Richard, chairman of the board of the California High-Speed Rail Authority, said in a written statement Wednesday that the agency will build a modern system that connects the state, creates jobs

and complies with the law. “We will continue to move forward aggressively to deliver the nation’s first high-speed rail system,” Richard said. Wednesday’s decision also concerns only one portion of the plaintiffs’ lawsuit. In a second phase still before a Sacramento County judge, attorneys will argue that compromises made to cut the price mean the bullet train won’t be able to travel from San Francisco to Los Angeles in 2 hours and 40 minutes as promised in the ballot measure. The 3rd District Court of Appeal agreed with the plaintiffs’ complaint that there are legitimate legal concerns about whether the “high-speed rail project the

California High-Speed Rail Authority seeks to build is the project approved by the voters” but said the arguments were brought too soon. Proposition 1A, approved in 2008, promised voters that the state would identify funding for the first useable segment of the rail line and that it would have necessary environmental clearances done before starting construction. Opponents argue that it has neither. The court’s decision not to hear the appeal “bodes poorly for all kinds of tax measures that go on the ballot because voters are going to say ‘How do I know they’re going to do this, how can I trust what they say?”’ plaintiffs’ attorney Stuart Flashman said Wednesday. Rulings by a Sacramento County judge last year prevented the sale of $8.6 billion in voter -approved bonds and created ongoing uncertainty about the project. The judge also ordered the state to draft a new funding plan and seek more environmental clearances, a requirement that was overturned by the appellate court.

Rare ancient Chinese bronzes go on display in US SANTA ANA, Calif. (AP) — When the mysterious people of China’s Sanxingdui packed up and moved away 3,000 years ago, they left behind no written language and no indication of who they were, where they were going or why. What they did leave was a gigantic cache of intricately fabricated, larger than-life bronze art works — each created at a time during which historians doubted technology even existed to make a bronze on such a grand scale. They also left several dozen elephant tusks, in an area where elephants were not believed to have been introduced yet. For whatever reason these objects were made and then discarded, they themselves are moving now, just as their creators did three millennia ago, and will go on display Sunday at Southern California’s Bowers Museum, the first stop on a rare U.S. tour. “China’s Lost Civilization: The Mystery of Sanxingdui” includes more than 100 ancient pieces, some never seen outside China. The exhibit will remain at the Bowers until March 15, after which they

will move to Houston’s Museum of Natural Science. “You look at these figures and they’re really unworldly,” said the museum’s president, Peter Keller, as he stood in the shadow of an 8-foot-tall statue of a man in bare feet, flowing robe and elaborate headdress. Keller was waiting inside the museum for workers to uncrate a 125-pound companion piece — a floppy-eared, bug-eyed bronze “mask” about the size of a sofa. “China is full of mysteries, but to me this is China’s greatest mystery,” Keller continued as he gazed at the mask that contained a smile as enigmatic as the Mona Lisa’s. “Who were these people and where did they go? That’s a mystery that’s been bugging archaeologists since Chinese bricklayers stumbled across the treasures in 1986, said Suzanne Cahill, an authority on ancient Chinese civilizations and the exhibition’s curator. “Wow, 1200 B.C. people are doing stuff like that and we think we’re so technically evolved,” she said. “It’s kind of humbling, actually.”

Although there is evidence of bronze works at that time in China’s Central Plain, some 750 miles away, none come close to being this elaborate. The Chinese first discovered they were on to something special in 1926 when a farmer uncovered a few relics in Sanxingdui, on the outskirts of Sichuan province’s capital city of Chengdu. But it wasn’t until 1986 that the country was awed by a find the Chinese would label one of the great wonders of the world. That was when workers began pulling the gigantic head, now named “Mask with Protruding Eyes,” out of the ground, along with the really tall guy who has since been nicknamed “Standing Figure.” Fifteen years later, more relics were found in another pit 25 miles away in Jinsha. Scholars suspect they were made by the same people, who also mysteriously abandoned that area. Little has subsequently been learned about these people, other than they abruptly vanished about 350 years after making the bronzes. “They certainly don’t look Chinese,” Cahill

said of the bronze images of people. “They barely even look human.” That, she added, has led some people to say, “Oh, my gosh, they must have been made by aliens.” She doubts that, noting the tall statute has a pair of hands that appear to have been shaped specifically to hold one of the 80 elephant tusks found buried with it. More likely it was modeled after a nobleman, she believes, or was created as a deity. But then there’s the

question of how the Asian elephants whose tusks were found in the pit got there. Elephants of the time were thought to be a thousand or so miles away in Vietnam or the far reaches of southwest China. The find indicates the Sanxingdui people may have lived on a heretofore unknown trade route. Although Cahill acknowledged that many questions about the works may never be answered, she’s excited about this

rare opportunity for people in the United States to see them and the artistic talents they represent. “My first reaction when I saw this stuff was I was just struck dumb,” says the scholar who has previously seen the works in China and, during a rare earlier trip outside the country, in Paris. “Now I belong to the ‘Gee whiz’ school of art history,” she said with a laugh. “They’re just so beautiful, so striking. And so weird.”

Stuntmen become directors with ‘John Wick’ Nixon comes alive in INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Chad Stahelski and David Leitch speak in shorthand when it comes to shooting sprees. Also mixed martial arts throwdowns, crazy car crashes and escaping explosions. After 20 years performing, choreographing, coordinating and directing movie stunts together — not to mention setting up their own stunt company — Stahelski and Leitch have become experts at big-screen action. Starting as stunt doubles for Keanu Reeves and Brad Pitt, they’ve grown to oversee stunt action on blockbuster fare such as “The Wolverine,” “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and “The Hunger Games” franchise. For the last few years, they’ve been ready to take the next step: finding a film of their own to direct. Reeves helped make that happen when he introduced them to “John Wick,” an action-saturated thrill ride in theaters Oct. 24. “When I got the script... I immediately thought of Chad and Dave for the action design, but I was secretly hoping they’d want to direct it,” Reeves said in a recent interview. “I knew that they would love the genre and I knew that they would love John

and the ego of ourselves — to prove that we could do something different,” said Stahelski, a tall, lean man in his mid-40s with an authoritative demeanor that belies his easy smile. He’s been friends with Reeves since working as his stunt double in “The Matrix” movies.

Reeves supported the pair’s pitch to producers, and the veteran stuntmen had their first directing gig.

Wick. And I thought the worlds that get created — the real world and then this underworld — would be attractive to them, and it was.” Reeves stars as the titular character, a retired killer-for-hire who’s drawn back into the underworld, seeking revenge after a group of thugs steal his car and kill the dog given to him by his dead wife. Willem Dafoe also stars. After reading the script, Stahelski and Leitch, both martial arts experts and Bruce Lee fans, told Reeves they wanted to tell

the story of “John Wick” with a graphic-novel twist, creating a stylized, heightened reality where the suit-clad killer could systematically shoot 84 people in a nightclub without batting an eye or wrinkling his clothes. They also wanted to craft a character whose outsized motivations would make sense to audiences.

Stahelski and Leitch, who was Pitt’s stunt double in “Fight Club” and “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” formed their stunt company, 87Eleven Action Design, in 2004. Their facility, tucked inside an industrial complex near Los Angeles International Airport, is a hub of muscle, flexibility and creativity, with a team of 16 choreographers on staff.

One section of the warehouse space holds weight machines and gymnastics mats; another has a springboard floor where lithe athlete-actors practice artful falls into stacks of empty cardboard boxes.

Shearer’s new show NEW YORK (AP) — Harry Shearer is hardly the first person to mine comedy from the rich vein where Richard Nixon shines. But no one has done it more faithfully than Shearer, who, in his new series, mimics Nixon unimpeachably while reenacting real-life scenes as the man known to detractors as Tricky Dick — all to hilarious effect. The creatively peripatetic Shearer’s credits include “This is Spinal Tap,” “The Simpsons” and the 30year-old humor-and-politics “Le Show” on public radio. Now, with “Nixon’s the One,” Shearer dramatizes, verbatim, bizarre but actual interludes lifted from the White House recordings Nixon secretly made — those very tapes whose revelations would wreck his presidency. A backhanded homage to the 37th president, “Nixon’s the One” finds Shearer transformed into the figure of Nixon and ensconced in the Oval Office as he delivers a profane slurry of tortured small talk, bitter outbursts against minorities and other supposed enemies, rants self-pitying and paranoid, and random moralizing, all in the company of top aides Bob Haldeman and John

Ehrlichman and other enabling yes men.

Hear him, from April 7, 1971, railing how “I’m sick of the bunch of them: my cabinet, the leaders in Congress. What a bunch of assholes!”

And on May 13, 1971, he cites ancient history in warning against gays taking over the nation: “You know what happened to the Greeks. Homosexuality destroyed ‘em.” While Sky TV has already aired the series in Britain to much acclaim, no U.S. outlet was willing to step up. But viewers on U.S. shores need wait no longer. The pilot episode premieres Tuesday on MyDamnChannel on YouTube, to be followed in subsequent weeks by five more half-hours set to handy themes (”Secrets,” “Religion,” “Elites,” etc.). Now 70, Shearer has been fascinated with Nixon all his life.

As far back as Nixon’s presidency, he had worked an impersonation into his improv act, and since 1974, when Nixon resigned beneath the weight of the Watergate scandal, Shearer has feasted on the White House tapes as more and more of them became public.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: Halloween is around the corner, and my 7-year-old daughter has decided to be a cowgirl. She wants the boots, the hat and the gun. Is it appropriate to let her have a holster and an obviously toy gun to accessorize her costume for trick-or-treating? She would not be taking that part of her costume to school on Halloween. I live in a part of the country where guns are an important part of our culture, but I am unsure how to proceed. CONFUSED ABOUT HALLOWEEN IN MONTANA

DEAR CONFUSED: Guns may be an important part of the culture where you live, but how do YOU feel about them? If it’s all right with you, and the weapon your child carries is obviously a toy, then there should be no problem as you take her from house to house collecting her goodies. But there is nothing wrong with a 7year-old cowgirl not having a gun and holster as part of her costume. If you need verification, have her check out the character Jessie in the movie “Toy Story 2.” P.S. Having her not take a toy gun to school is wise because many schools have strict policies about weapons — including toy weapons — being brought on campus.

##### DEAR ABBY: A female acquaintance recently asked me to submit a reference letter for her in order to help her in a custody battle with her ex-husband. She had problems with

COMICS

drugs and alcohol in the past, but has been sober for more than a year now. She wants the recommendation letter to reflect how much she has changed for the better. I didn’t know her a year ago and didn’t witness the change. Also, from what little I have seen, her parenting skills are questionable at best. How do I proceed? Ignoring her request isn’t an option because she has asked multiple times. ACQUAINTANCE IN GEORGIA DEAR ACQUAINTANCE: Tell your acquaintance a version of what you have told me, that you’re not comfortable writing the letter because you have known her only a relatively short time and haven’t witnessed how far she has come. It’s honest. (Do not mention that you think her parenting skills are lacking if you would like to maintain the relationship.)

Family Circus

I think supporting their business might be the best way, but I’m not sure what else to do other than simply continue buying from them. Do you have any advice? APPRECIATIVE IN ALBANY, N.Y.

DEAR APPRECIATIVE:

I believe that if people have something nice to say, they shouldn’t keep it inside. Tell the men their efforts are appreciated. I’m sure they’ll be pleased to know their hard work is recognized. Other than that, mention it to others who live in the area. It’s good publicity for the store, and it might increase their business.

KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Readers: Here is this week’s SOUND OFF, about service people’s time windows: “My Sound Off is about service people. Whenever I’ve needed service, they give you a four-hour or more window to come out. That is just too much time to sit and wait for service. Once, I was given an “8 a.m. to 5 p.m.” time. The service man came at 4:55. I was so upset. Whatever happened to customer service?” P.Z., via email

Well, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. is not really a “window,” it’s a day! A four-hour-orso time “window” is a winner for the company and the customer. A call may take the expected amount of time or may run longer, depending on the situation. Also, many customers will say the dreaded words: “As long as you are here ...” Please keep in mind, the service people want to do a good job, but if you tack on other tasks, and they have not planned for that time, it may bump other appointments. Give as much info as possible ahead of time. Many companies call and say that the technician is on the way, or will be there within the hour. I like that! Heloise #####

Indian schools face decayed buildings, poverty

WINSLOW, Ariz. (AP) — On a desert outpost miles from the closest paved road, Navajo students at the Little Singer Community School gleefully taste traditional fry bread during the school’s heritage week. “It reminds us of the Native American people a long time ago,” says a smiling 9-year-old, Arissa Chee. The cheer comes in the midst of dire surroundings: Little Singer, like so many of the 183 Indian schools overseen by the federal gover nment, is verging on decrepit. The school, which serves 81 students, consists of a cluster of rundown classroom buildings containing asbestos, radon, mice, mold and flimsy outside door locks. The newest building, a large, white monolithic dome that is nearly 20 years old, houses the gym. On a recent day, students carried chairs above their heads while they changed classes, so they would have a place to sit. These are schools, says Interior Secretary Sally Jewell, whose department is responsible for them, “that you or I would not feel good sending our kids to, and I don’t feel good sending Indian kids there, either.” Federally owned schools for Native Americans on reservations are marked by remoteness, extreme poverty and few construction dollars. The schools serve about 48,000 children, or about 7 percent of Indian students, and are among the country’s lowest performing. At Little Singer, less than one-quarter of students were deemed proficient in reading and math on a 2012-2013 assessment. The Obama administration is pushing ahead with a plan to improve the schools that gives tribes more control. But the endeavor is complicated by disrepair of so many buildings, not to mention a federal legacy dating to the 19th century that for many years forced Native American children to attend boarding schools. Little Singer was the vision in the 1970s of a medicine man of the same name who wanted local children educated in the community.

In this photo taken Sept. 26, students and faculty say the Pledge of Allegiance during an assembly at the Crystal Boarding School in Crystal, N.M. on the Navajo Nation. The school is one of 183 for Native American students run by the Interior Department’s Bureau of Indian Education.

Students often come from families struggling with domestic violence, alcoholism and a lack of running water at home, so nurturing is emphasized. The school provides showers, along with shampoo and washing machines. Conflicts and discipline problems are resolved with traditional “peacemaking” discussions, and occasionally the use of a sweat lodge. Principal Etta Shirley’s day starts at 6 a.m., when on her way to work, she picks up kids off the bus routes. Because there’s no teacher housing, a caravan of teachers commutes together about 90 minutes each morning on barely passable dirt roads. All this, to teach in barely passable quarters. “We have little to work with, but we make do with what we have,” says Verna Yazzie, a school board member. The school is on the government’s priority list for replacement. It’s been there since at least 2004. ——— The 183 schools are spread across 23 states and fall under the jurisdiction of the Interior Department’s Bureau of Indian Education. They are in some of the most out-of-the-way

places in America; one is at the bottom of the Grand Canyon, reachable by donkey or helicopter. Most are small, with fewer than 150 students. Native Americans perform better in schools that are not overseen by the federal bureau than in schools that are, national and state assessments show. Overall, they trail their peers in an important national assessment and struggle with a graduation rate of 68 percent. President Barack Obama visited Standing Rock Reservation in North Dakota in June, where he announced the school improvement plan. Already, tribes manage about 120 schools, and the plan will turn the rest over as Washington shifts to more of a support role. The plan also calls for board-certified more teachers, better Internet access and less red tape, making it easier to buy books and hire teachers. The Interior Department wants to help schools accelerate the use of Native American languages and culture. But the rundown state of many schools cannot be ignored. More than 60 are listed in poor condition. Less than one-third have the Internet and the computer

capability to administer new student assessments that are rolling out in much of the country. An estimated $1.3 billion is needed to replace or refurbish these schools, or at least hundreds of millions to fix parts of them. But since the 2009 release of about $280 million in stimulus money, little has gone to major school construction or renovation. So Jewell in a tight spot. She recently visited Crystal Boarding School on the Navajo reservation in Crystal, New Mexico, where some classes are held in a building constructed by Depressionera workers. The school is now primarily a day school, but about 30 kids stay in dor ms there, in part because they live too far to catch buses that begin running at 5:30 a.m. There’s a waiting list for dorm space, but a second dorm was condemned. Jewell was met by hugs from the kids, who performed songs in the Navajo language. She thanked the students for “making do with this school the way it is.” Later, she told school leaders she couldn’t promise the money will be there to build a new school. “For schools throughout Indian country, this is a

Trick or Peeps! Other holiday traditions bleed into Halloween NEW YORK (AP) — Holiday creep, it seems, is here to stay, and it’s spookier than it used to be. The blending of holiday traditions — think Hanukkah bush — now kicks off with Halloween in a variety of ways.

Elf on the Shelf

That little guy in the Santa suit comes with a rhyming book. He’s a stuffed “scout elf” that mysteriously moves around the house and can’t be touched as he reports on who’s naughty and who’s nice between Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve. Kids are encouraged to name their elves. Well, meet the new Switch Witches of Halloween. They’ve got their own kit with a rhyming book and a black-hatted witch doll. Not-so-oddly, the rhyming structure is a la “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas,” and kids have a little space in the back where they can name their witch. The book, “Switchcrafted: The Story of the Switch Witches of Halloween,” instructs kids to leave the witch their candy hauls in exchange for a healthier toy. Unlike the elf, Switch Witches can be touched — and they’re not spies, said co-creator Audrey Kinsman, a mom of two boys in Denver. “There are no strict rules,” she said of the witch. “The Switch Witch goes to the grocery store and takes the kids to school and sits in our kitchen. My boys play with her and hang her from the light fixtures and wrap her onto my dog’s collar. It’s supposed to be more interactive.”

Ugly Sweaters

The folks at Festified.com are thinking, hey, why not Halloween? There’s a sweater dress there, a vest and leggings in orange stripes with pumpkins and bats. Mike Golomb, owner of Uglysweaterstore.com, is not only all about ugly sweaters for Christmas, Halloween and just about every other occasion but he sells only VINTAGE ugly sweaters that he buys by the 1,000-pound bale. For Halloween, there’s a black sweatshirt that has a

chronic problem,” she said. “I don’t want to stand here and make promises I can’t keep. What I want to say is, I get it.” ——— These schools are the legacy of 19th century assimilation policies that still exist, in part, because of the government’s treaty and trust responsibilities. Thousands of Native American children were once taken from their homes — some forcibly — to attend boarding schools far from their families. That was the case for many parents of current students in the bureau’s schools; some were as young as 5 when they went away. Marie Williams, personnel coordinator and special education teacher at Little Singer, said she and her boarding-school mates were pulled so far from their roots that when they watched a John Wayne movie, they celebrated when the Indians were killed. She grew ashamed of her background, she said, only embracing her Navajo heritage when she went to college. “That kind of scarring and longtime mistrust is something that is hard to understand if you are an outsider,” said Don Yu, an Education Department official brought in to help

pumpkin exploding with fireworks, and a vest with smiley pumpkins and candy corn. “Christmas is still our biggest holiday, but we have Easter sweaters, Halloween sweaters, sweaters for teachers with apples and pencils on them,” said Golomb, in St. Louis. “We’ve seen increased sales in all the sweaters, especially any holiday.” Golomb sells his ugly sweaters for $30 to $300 each. “To us, the tackier the better,” he said. “Sometimes I think Halloween sweaters are more tacky than the Christmas sweaters, with the candy corn and bats and everything.”

Halloween Eggs

The Easter tradition of decorating eggs in pretty pastels has morphed into spooky or playful takes for Halloween. Consider this pumpkin egg project that landed on a 2004 cover of Martha Stewart Living magazine: A centuries-old Ukrainian dying technique called pysanka was used to draw a design with wax. The eggs were then dipped in dye and held close to a flickering flame so the wax melts away to reveal the decoration. The little pumpkins were placed in a cozy nest of hay and twigs. Decorating eggs is most definitely not just for Easter anymore, said Hannah Milman, the editorial director of crafts and holidays at Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia.

Halloween Trees

These days, Christmas trees aren’t just for Christmas, or even Hanukkah for that matter. Look no further than the Halloween display at Bronner’s Christmas Wonderland, which touts itself as the world’s largest Christmas store. Founded by Wally Bronner in 1945, Halloween and the fall harvest mark the official start of the holiday season at the store in Frankenmuth, Michigan. The store has a 98,000-square-foot sales floor nestled on 27 acres in the

the Interior Department improve the schools. “Any kinds of changes to the system, even under this administration, it will be met with a lot of skepticism.” Other complex issues are at play, too, including the difficulty persuading teachers to work in remote reservations where quality housing is lacking. One commission after another has tried to fix things. A panel in the 1920s said the students should be treated as “human beings.” The late Sen. Ted Kennedy, DMass., took a run at the issue with another commission, in 1969. The effort to shift more control to tribes has drawn praise from some school leaders. “It’s an important step for us to go ahead and take control over what we know we can do best,” says Kimberly Dominguez, Crystal’s vice principal. Others, though, say Washington is merely washing its hands of its responsibilities. Aubrey Francisco, 40, who attended Crystal and sends his 6-year-old son there, questions whether Navajo leaders can continue the school’s legacy. “With the tribe and its limited resources, they need to take that into account,” he said. He credits the school with preparing him for a career in the Navy. Ahniwake Rose, executive director of the National Indian Education Association, said her organization is cautiously optimistic, partly out of appreciation that Obama is seemingly engaged — a rarity for a president, she said. At Little Singer, Shirley, the principal, said she has some optimism, too, despite being let down so many times. One glimmer of hope: A House spending bill contains nearly $60 million for construction at Little Singer and two other bureau schools. All school officials can do is wait to see if Congress provides the estimated $20 million it would take to build a new school. “We need to get the kids out of the environment,” Shirley said. “That’s what’s really driving this. I lose sleep over it, just thinking about it.”

state’s Little Bavaria region. A religious man, Bronner wasn’t one for ghouls and goblins, but Halloween is hard to get around these days. “In the past few years we’ve gotten more and more Halloween ornaments and trims. People love Halloween. It’s a tremendous holiday,” said Sarah Schlegel, Bronner’s decorating coordinator. Her staff decorated a 4-and-a-half-foot tree with round orange pumpkin and white spiderweb ornaments.

Peeps

The sugary, marshmallow chicks — once the delight of Easter alone — have been reinvented for just about every occasion, including Halloween. One box of five green chicks comes with a plush, fiveinch “witch chick” with a black hat. Orange pumpkin Peeps can be had as singles or in a 24-count tray, along with white ghost-shaped Peeps. There are chocolate-covered Peeps and cats in the flavor of chocolate mousse, said Matt Pye, vice president of corporate affairs for Just Born, the company that owns Peeps and is based, where else, in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
