Girl Scouts from Troop 31 watch the Roswell Veterans Day Parade, Saturday morning.

More spectators than ever before lined both sides of Main Street for a Veterans Day parade, Saturday morning.

This year’s theme was soldiers who enlisted following the terrorist attacks of 9/11. To honor this theme, three soldiers who served their country following the attacks served as grand marshals for the MainStreet Roswell-sponsored parade.

Active duty Ar my Spc. Anthony Hall, Army Sgt. Zachary McPherson and

Marine Staff Sgt. Jeremy Gooch helped kick off the parade by placing a wreath at the newly unveiled veterans memorial on the Chaves County Courthouse lawn.

Many veterans were in the parade, which started at the courthouse and went north on Main Street, concluding just before 19th Street. Veterans rode in style thanks to members of the Valley Vintage Motor Car Club who donated antique vehicles for the occasion.

“We always provide (antique cars) for this parade,” said event organiz-

er Rita Kane-Doerhoefer.

“Almost every driver was a veteran.” Kane-Doerhoefer noted downtown establishments that featured windows decorated with 9/11themed posters.

Mayor Del Jurney proclaimed Nov. 7-13, 2011, as Veterans Week. He acknowledged the varied events that took place in Roswell throughout the week that helped recognize and honor area veterans, as well as provide safe, family fun.

CLOVIS — Some people counted them out at the beginning of the season.

They said they couldn’t get back to the top without what they lost from last year or that they wouldn’t have horses to run in the lead pack.

They were the Lake Arthur Panthers and they proved all those detractors wrong on a wind-swept afternoon at Yucca Field in Clovis.

Roswell DAR celebrates centennial year in style VANESSA KAHIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

A local group of women have upheld the ideals of their ances-

tors — namely God, home and country — for 100 years.

Roswell’s chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution became an of ficial group in

November 1911. To mark the centennial, local members joined DAR members from throughout the state for a traditional tea party at the Historical Society for

Rehab Center may be razed (after the asbestos is gone) JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The former New Mexico Rehabilitation Center, 31 Gail Harris Road, now faces potential demolition.

According to T imothy Korte, public information officer for the General Services Property Control Division, “The Roswell site is among a handful of state buildings around New Mexico that are falling into disrepair. ... During the 2011

Legislative Session and the Special Session in September, we requested $2 million in capital outlay funds for demolitions statewide, but nothing was appropriated.”

The disrepair of which he spoke refers to the vandalism that has occurred since May, when the building was vacated. The structure has been vandalized eight times. According to Roswell Police Department estimates, vandals have

Fall arrives late in some Southwestern pockets ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Forests throughout the Southwest are growing quiet as the season for bugling elk comes to an end. The aspens in the high country and cottonwoods in the valleys are dropping their golden leaves, and snow has dusted mountain tops in Colorado, New Mexico and Arizona.

There’s no denying it’s fall.

But for land managers, hunters and other outdoor enthusiasts, it was a long time coming in some areas.

They had to wait a few extra weeks for summer to loosen its grip.

The slow change in season comes on the heels of months of volatile weather.

Dust storms enveloped Arizona, drought paralyzed Texas and New Mexico and temperatures far above normal plagued most of the country. The summer that would never end is how forecasters with the National Weather Service in Albuquerque referred to it.

caused $7,000 worth of damage.

In the last incident, the Roswell Fire Department was called after vandals set off fire extinguishers, which the neighbors mistook for smoke. Fire Marshal Bill Wells then contacted the state and asked that the first floor windows be boarded up.

He admitted it was not the best solution, since once the boards were in place the building present-

ed a particular hazard to Fire Department personnel and the public.

“If someone breaks in now and starts a fire, they could get killed because they could not find a way out,” said Wells. “With a building of that size (19,000 square feet) it would be almost impossible to find them, and I’m afraid that firefighters would be killed trying to rescue them, but that’s our job; that’s what we to do, and

we’ll do it.”

The cost of materials for boarding up the 88 windows on the first floor is estimated at $3,000. This figure does not include the cost of labor.

Do you recognize the Man in the Locket?

Does anyone recognize this man? His photo is inside a locket that was found in an empty field in Roswell in the mid-1970s.

VANESSA KAHIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

Does anyone recognize this man?

Until someone comes forth with more information, the photograph’s origins remain a mystery. Some things about the photograph are, however, certain: It is inside a locket that was once in Roswell; it has since traveled to Albuquerque; and now resides in California.

A little girl found the locket in a field near her home on Bland Street.

“I was just playing in the field next to my home,” said Marcella Flores. “I remember looking down and seeing a shining (object).”

Flores found the locket in the mid1970s. Her parents Juan and Bella Flores moved the family to Albuquerque in 1977. Marcella attended high school and the University of New Mexico. Upon graduation, she moved to southern Cali-

fornia. The locket went with her everywhere she lived.

Flores said the locket has remained with her so long because her family moved soon after she found it. Although it’s a cherished part of her childhood, Flores said she knows the locket means much more to its rightful owner.

“I always knew in my heart it was special to someone,” she said. “I remember thinking that this woman must have really loved her sweetheart to put his picture in a locket for her to wear near her heart.”

Flores now owns Boot Camp LA, a fitness business in Los Angeles, but is still taken back to her childhood when she comes across the locket. When she sees the locket these days, she wishes she had been able to search for its owner sooner.

“It never occurred to me to keep it for me, and I never had that ‘because I found it, now it’s mine’ feeling,” Flores said. “I knew someone who loved (the locket) held it once and that possibly they got it as a gift. I knew it was special. I was just too little to do something about it and with my family moving to Albuquerque, it got tucked away in a jewelry box.”

Although the chances of finding the locket’s owner may be slim after more than 30 years, Flores has hope someone may at least provide the first hint as to whom it belongs, by identifying the man in the photograph.

“It would make my heart happy to see (the locket) find its way home,” Flores said in an E-mail. “While this gentleman or his family may or may not reside in Roswell, it is my hope that someone may recognize him.”

If someone has more infor mation about the man in the photograph, or is able to say who it is and can accurately describe the locket, they may contact the Roswell Daily Record or this article’s writer at the E-mail address below.

Porras arrested for fraud, forgery

A Roswell man was arrested for fraud and forgery. According to the police, Daniel Porras, 49, used fraudulent checks to start a restaurant. Porras opened a commercial bank account for Casa Caliente, 415 W. Second St., with three checks totaling more than $3,000.

Days later bank officials discovered that the account on which the checks were drawn did not exist and called in police.

Porras turned himself in at the Roswell Police Department around noon, Thursday. Porras has a history of fraudulent checks and defaulting loans, with nine cases listed in the state records.

Fall

Those sweltering temperatures are thought to be one reason fall was late in some spots. The obvious measure was the foliage.

By the end of September, cars are usually funneling up the narrow roads leading to New Mexico’s ski areas so spectators can soak in the colors. Near Santa Fe, many of the trees were still green in early October.

There were similar reports from Flagstaf f, Ariz., Ouray, Colo., and Taos.

“I was up in Taos last week and noticed that it was late. Everyone was talking about how late it was. But it was very beautiful,” said Andy Graves, an entomologist with the U.S. Forest Service in New Mexico. “A lot of people are just attributing it somewhat to the drought and maybe the elongated summer. It was a weird year.”

Some areas escaped the shift of the season’s start.

Along the Rio Grande in central New Mexico, officials said the yellowing of the cottonwoods was on schedule. So was the migration of the sandhill cranes and geese that visit Bosque del Apache National Wildlife Refuge each fall.

In Gunnison, Colo., U.S. Forest Service pathologist Jim Worrall said things appeared to be nor mal, with only some reports of foliage changes being a week late.

Slight shifts in the peak

of fall foliage are normal since the tur ning of the leaves is affected by moisture, temperature and exposure to daylight. Scientists say those elements come in different combinations each year, making no two autumns alike.

But with the sting of record drought and high temperatures still lingering, scientists are looking carefully at the region’s forests to ensure they are healthy.

With their white bark and lush understories, aspens are sometimes looked to as a “report card” for the forest.

It was a combination of record-breaking temperatures and a severe drought that peaked in southern Colorado in 2002 that triggered a sudden decline in the aspen population, Worrall said.

In Arizona, the culprits were frost and drought, said Mary Lou Fairweather, a forest pathologist based in Flagstaff.

Another aspen die-off is possible given the age of the stands and pressures of continued drought, especially in New Mexico, the experts said.

Another factor is the Western tent caterpillar, which has defoliated about 82,000 acres in New Mexico this year. That’s more than double the area of leaf-less trees that was mapped last year, Graves said.

The insect usually does not kill the trees, but a few consecutive years of defoliation would be cause for concern, he said.

In the mountains sur-

rounding Chama, officials have noticed changes this fall. Joe Carrillo, a timber manager with the State Forestry Division, said some of the trees’ leaves went straight from green to brown before dropping off, while others took longer to change color.

After the tent caterpillar eats away a tree’s leaves, the tree buds again later in the season. The new, smaller leaves can hang on longer, but late summer moisture and cold temperatures can cause wrinkles in the regrowing process.

“I’ve talked to loggers who have been in this area for generations. They’ve noticed the fact that whenever we get late moisture, the leaves tend to either not turn at all or are late in tur ning color,” Carrillo said, offering another theory for the late signs of fall.

Whether aspens, cottonwoods and other deciduous trees are taking longer to change color or are losing their leaves faster, scientists can generally point to the weather. It’s harder to pinpoint why neighboring stands respond differently, Carrillo said.

“It’s one of those things where it’s not one single vector,” he said. “It may be insects. It may be disease.

It may be some other environmental conditions.”

Despite fall’s tardiness in some areas, experts said there should be no consequences come next spring’s growing season. And that could come sooner given forecasts of more abovenormal temperatures and little precipitation.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — District Attorney Kari Brandenburg says the case against former UNM President F. Chris Garcia and other suspected leaders of a large-scale online prostitution ring will likely be presented to a grand jury within a month.

Garcia is accused of recruiting new prostitutes

to the online ring and protecting it from law enforcement under the alias “Burque-Pops.” He was charged with promoting prostitution, conspiracy and tampering with evidence. He has denied any wrongdoing. Police said the ring served more than 1,400 johns.

The Albuquerque Journal

reports charges against Garcia and others were dropped temporarily in September to give police more time to sort through countless data found in a computer that was seized.

Also charged were the site’s owner and for mer owner.

We do not need a special day to bring you to our minds.

The days we do not think of you are very hard to find.

Our hearts still ache with sadness and secret tears still flow.

What it meant to lose you, no one will ever know.

Our thoughts are always with you, your place no one can fill.

In life we loved you dearly; in death we love you still.

There will always be a heartache, and often a silent tear.

But always a precious memory of the days when you were here.

If tears could make a staircase, and heartaches make a lane, we’d walk the path to Heaven and bring you home again.

We hold you close within our hearts; and there you will remain, to walk with us throughout our lives until we meet again.

Our family chain is broken now, and nothing seems the same, but as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

It’s been 2 years and our hearts still ache.

began to perform an hour before the parade began, to entertain parade goers and participants as they lined up on Main Street.

Leftover flags from the Field of Honor — a 9/11 remembrance event that took place during the terror attack’s 10th anniversary — were used.

Nicole Vargas, founder of Roswell’s Adopt-a-Soldier program, also helped organize the event. She said there seemed to be more spectators this year.

As she watched a uniformed New Mexico Military Institute officer hand an American flag to a toddler sitting on the sidewalk watching the parade, Vargas said she was optimistic about the

20th century, when the group was founded.

“We believe in preserving history,” said DAR Roswell Regent Genora Canon. “We are really strong on history and patriotism.” This shows in their dedication to honoring history teachers and other promoters of history in the community. The group also strongly supports veterans and preserving the Constitution the way the Founding Fathers intended it.

There is only one condition for DAR membership — one must be able to trace one’s lineage back to a soldier who fought in the American Revolution, or to a supporter of America’s efforts during that war.

If tracing ancestors back 200 years sounds daunting, the DAR is available to help.

“We are a genealogical group that helps people trace their heritage back to a Revolutionary soldier,” Canon said. The group can also help people trace their lineage

future.

Vargas said that, in years past, veterans were not treated with gratitude. This is especially true, she said, of veterans who served in Vietnam and Korea.

“These were the vets that were spat on. These were the vets who got called baby killers,” Vargas said. “These veterans gave years of their life and there’s just one day we say ‘thank you.’”

The parade included members of the American Legion Post No. 28, as well as the newly installed American Legion Riders, who rode on their motorcycles. The riders group was granted an official local chapter last month.

They were joined by the Vietnam Veterans of America and Murphy’s Marauders, a motorcycle

enthusiast group.

Kane-Doerhoefer said Murphy’s Marauders brought about 100 riders, many of whom are veterans.

Kane-Doerhoefer said all four of Roswell’s public middle school bands combined to march in the parade. The Roswell and Goddard high school bands also joined forces for the sake of the event.

Not to be left behind by local schools, Dexter Elementary had a float in the parade.

Members of the Roswell Fire Department, Police Department and members of the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office were also present.

The day’s event was concluded with Taps, played by two NMMI buglers.

back to a supporter of the American Revolution.

Membership criteria may seem a little bit confining, but Canon said they are working to make it more inclusive. The discovery of Spanish support for the American Revolution, for example, has made it possible for many Hispanics to join the DAR. DAR member Jacquelyn Chase said that, in the 1990s, a researcher found a letter written by Spain’s King Carlos III to the Spanish colonies. The king requested that they send funds to support the American Revolution.

“When this document was found, the DAR deter mined that these men contributed to the American Revolution, even though they did it through Spain,” Chase said. These included the Santa Fe Presidio soldiers, who sent a donation to support the Revolution.

Chase said this support “counts as patriotic service.” Women who can trace their lineage back to the Presidio soldiers may become members of the DAR. Still, most of the local

DAR chapter’s 41 members cannot trace their lineage back to a Spanish supporter of the American Revolution. Instead, many local members have ancestors who once resided in one of the original 13 colonies. Such is the case with Laura Nelson. She can trace her lineage back to a Lillard family that once lived in Virginia.

The silver tea set that DAR members sipped from belonged to Nelson’s maternal grandmother, who was also a DAR member.

Mayor Del Jurney paid the group a surprise visit.

He congratulated the local DAR for 100 years of service.

“God, home and country. That’s the per fect order of how we need to put things in perspective,” Jurney said.

ing boarded up is the best presentation of the community, definitely not. But I am an optimist. I believe this represents an opportunity.”

Since the building was boarded up, criminal activity has increased. On Oct. 30, the police were called to the old rehabilitation center after someone broke out a second-story window. It was the second incident in less than a week. On Nov. 4, the facility was entered twice in a 24-hour period.

In one incident, subjects gained access to the building through a third-story window. Thieves removed $400 worth of copper from the roof. Later that same day, the police were called out for a burglary in progress, when it was discovered an additional window had been broken. Estimates for each window range from $50 to $100.

These four incidents cost the state between $200 and $400. With the copper theft, the losses in a single week range from $600 to $800.

On Tuesday, criminals struck again, gaining entry through a second-story window where they tore $2,500 worth of copper from the walls. The costs of these incidents added to the previous estimate of $10,800 for vandalism and materials, the total cost to the state is nearly $14,000.

Meanwhile, the latest incident creates a whole new hazard for local residents. Previous surveys of the building revealed the walls contain asbestos.

According to New Mexico’s Air Quality Bureau, if the walls had remained intact, then the asbestos would not have presented a health risk.

“If the unauthorized entry results in destruction of sur faces containing asbestos, the dust particles raised can cause a significant hazard to the public, especially the neighboring buildings,” said Allan Morris of the Air Quality Bureau. He further noted that the General Services Division could be held legally liable by their negligence for their failure to protect the public.

These damages and the potential risk to the public

could have been prevented.

In December, an agreement was reached between the Regional Housing Authority and then-Gov. Bill Richardson’s administration to turn the rehabilitation center into a community center. When Chuck Gara became division director, the project was derailed.

When questioned why the GSD reversed its decision, Korte said that the agreement had been rescinded because the GSD wanted a paying tenant.

Last week, Korte reported, “Unfortunately, nothing has changed regarding the old rehabilitation hospital in Roswell. The Property Control Division remains open to an outcome that would place a tenant in the building. ... The most recent talks have been with the Veterans Af fairs Department and CYFD, but there is no agreement to report.”

Now that the walls have breached and been asbestos has been released, few tenants would accept the building. Chris Herbert, executive director of the Regional Housing Authority who was part of the South Roswell Community Center project, said he was still interested in the building for housing for the disabled and for veterans. However, he said he would probably request an asbestos survey to assess the damages.

Any proposed demolition further complicates things.

Unless the building is cleared of asbestos, demolition represents a danger to everyone living in the area, not just those who enter the building illegally. Federal law requires abatement before demolition of a building containing asbestos can take place.

However, the capital outlay of $2 million requested by GSD would barely cover abatement and not the cost of demolition.

Rocky Mountain Abatement Inc., estimated costs on abatement of a building the size of the old rehabilitation center between $1.2 million and $1.8 million.

Demolition without abatement would contaminate the soil, making any future use of, or construction on, the property impossible.

Any person who walked across the property, any child who played on the property, kicking up dust, would be at risk. Wind

would propel contaminants into nearby residences.

Morris explained the process. Asbestos particles combine with dust particles and once the dust becomes airborne, it can be inhaled.

“In quantities large enough, it can cause immediate respiratory distress. ... The actual health effects aren’t known for years,” said Morris.

John Taylor, who was a part of the committee in charge of the demolition of the former St. Mary’s Hospital, confirmed the figures for abatement. “I can tell you from experience. The cost for asbestos abatement at St. Mary’s ran into seven figures. This didn’t include the cost for demolition. ... It’s going to take a lot of money to tear the thing down.” He also agreed that soil contamination would be a problem without the proper abatement.

As a veterans’ advocate, Taylor was also involved in the project to convert the Rehabilitation Center to a community center. During that time, he contacted state officials to see if he could facilitate that transfer of the building. “We got totally stonewalled.”

Southeast New Mexico Vietnam Veterans representative Greg Neal discussed his attempts to get the building for use as a veterans center.

“I just went to a veterans meeting in Santa Fe, and I can tell you the veterans would just love it. We have nothing here for vets here in Southeastern New Mexico. You have to go to El Paso if you need help.”

Neal expressed his dismay at the situation. He said he did not understand why the GSD did not take advantage of the opportunity to turn the building over to another gover nment entity. “They’re not making any money on it. It’s costing them money. So why don’t they sign it over?

They could have signed it over to us and let us deal with it. It’s a good example of not seeing the unintended consequence of a decision.”

Korte acknowledged that renovation or even demolition of the building is not an immediate option because of a lack of funding. j.palmer@roswell-record.com

Have relaxed regs given economy a boost?

A4 Sunday, November 13, 2011

SANTA FE — Does New Mexico have too many regulations? Gov. Susana Martinez thinks so. She campaigned for smaller government.

Eliminating regulations is one way of making government smaller.

With fewer regulations, fewer inspectors are needed to monitor and enforce the regulations. And it is easier to conduct business with fewer rules to follow.

So Gov. Martinez appointed a Small Business Friendly Task Force.

The group has reported on ways to eliminate regulations and reduce waste. As one might guess, the Regulation and Licensing Department and the Construction Industries Division were two of the first targets.

Gov. Martinez has heard plenty from the construction business about the onerous regulations they face. Many of the regulations involve improving the environment, which was a major goal of former Gov. Bill Richardson.

Richardson wanted to be known as the greenest governor in the nation. That is a popular item in the

national Democratic platform. Many also believe that production of alternative energy equipment is a way for the nation to regain some of its international trade leadership.

But Martinez thinks Richardson overreached considerably in his efforts. Her task force has recommended to her that New Mexico go no further than federal environmental requirements. New Mexico was quickly becoming the leader in that field.

The task force also recommended New Mexico withdraw from the Western Climate Initiative and become merely an observer. Martinez says she still wants green businesses to come to New Mexico.

Roswell Daily Record

Martinez and the task force encourage small businesses with complaints about state regulations to call the Office of Business Advocate, 505-827-2486, with any problems on interaction with government agencies. All complaints will be kept confidential.

Many findings of the Task Force seem to be common sense. Environmental interests likely are pushing for too much regulation. Martinez likely wants too little in terms of environmental controls.

The task force also had recommendations about middle management personnel in state agencies who have an anti-business attitude.

Some of the staff shuffling in state agencies that we have seen in the past seven months may be a result of that finding.

The task force was established by Gov. Martinez on Jan. 1, her first day in office. It called for 90 days of study, followed by a report. That report was submitted on April 1.

The Small Business Friendly Task Force was neither small in size nor

composed of representatives from small businesses. The website lists 29 members composed primarily of top management and lobbyists from New Mexico’s largest businesses.

There isn’t a mom and pop operation on the list. Representatives of environmental groups claim their meetings were closed to the public and that it was necessary to file public records requests to obtain any of the work products of the meetings. That information is now on the Internet.

The governor’s office and the Economic Development Department now have had the report for seven months. Little has been said publicly about any action on the report.

Possibly some legislative action will be required in January but these recommendations were intended mostly for executive action, which doesn’t require changes in the law. Regulations fall within the purview of the executive branch of government.

So the question is, has there been a reduction in regulations as a

result of the report and, if so, have we seen any improvements yet in our economy?

One might have expected to see a rise in housing starts but that may be hampered by the lending market being so stingy.

As long as interest rates remain as low as they are, banks say what they spend on due diligence and paperwork make the measly interest they make from a loan less than what they can get investing their money.

This summer, the Legislature and governor’s office reported some fairly rosy revenue projections but by fall those projections were backed off considerably.

So the answer seems to be that it is too early to have seen any economic results from trimming back regulations.

Voters tell politicians to get serious

Politicians should be wary of reading too much into the results of Tuesday’s off-year elections. Politics these days are far too volatile for quick conclusions. Ask Herman Cain.

Still, President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign did a modest victory dance Wednesday morning to celebrate the decision by Ohio voters to repeal Ohio Senate Bill 5, which would have severely curtailed the bargaining rights of the state’s public employee unions. The Obama campaign and organized labor had made an all-out push to marshal grassroots opposition to the bill.

Because of organizing efforts in Ohio and around the country, wrote Obama campaign field director Jeremy Bird in a memo to campaign supporters, “this past week has been a huge success.”

Well, maybe. But how to explain that Ohio voters also decided Tuesday that they wanted no part of the individual mandate to purchase health care insurance that is part of Obama’s health care reform law?

A more cautious analysis of the Ohio vote, as well as the results of elections in Mississippi, Maine and Arizona, would suggest only slight pushback against conservative efforts to go too far, too fast with the momentum they gained in 2010.

American politics swing on a pendulum.

Parties that win one year tend to overreach, and the pendulum swings back the other way. For all the hysteria of the 24-hour news cycle, this remains a centrist nation.

Pendulums usually don’t swing back in a single year. But these are extraordinarily difficult and divisive times. In that there is a cautionary note for both parties.

In Ohio, voters told Republican Gov. John Kasich and his GOP legislative colleagues that SB 5 was a reach too far. The bill would have stripped public employees, including police officers and teachers, of any effective collective bargaining rights. In any dispute, management would have had the right to impose a settlement. Police officers and firefighters called the bill a threat to public safety — hyperbole, perhaps, but the message resonated with voters.

In Maine, voters restored Election Day voter registration, which had been struck down by GOP legislators.

In Arizona, Russell Pearce, the Republican state Senate president who sponsored the state’s 2010 crackdown on undocumented immigrants, was recalled. His replacement, charter school executive Jerry Lewis, also is a Republican but has said that immigration reform should be reasonable.

Elsewhere, results were mixed. In Virginia, Republicans captured control of the state Senate, giving them the governor’s mansion and both houses of the Legislature. But in Iowa, Democrats held on to the Senate.

Democrats held on to the governorship in Kentucky, and Republicans held on in Mississippi. Big-city mayors of both parties held their seats.

Conclusion: The country is narrowly divided, angry and restive, in no mood for games and phony issues. Politicians, take heed.

Guest Editorial The St. Louis Post-Dispatch DEAR DOCTOR K: I’ve been yawning a lot lately, and it got me thinking about what causes this phenomenon. Does anyone know why we yawn, and do you have any idea why yawns seem to be contagious?

DEAR READER: Most people yawn several times per day, sometimes without even noticing it. In fact, almost all vertebrate animals yawn up to 10 times per hour, by some estimates. Yawning is most common in the early morning and late evening.

What do these yawns mean?

That you are tired? Bored?

The fact is, we don’t know.

It’s probably a myth that yawning always means you’re sleepy.

People do often yawn as they are ready to go to sleep at

Salazar’s new order contradicts his 2010 order MARITA NOON ENERGY MAKES AMERICA GREAT INC.

Weeks after the infamous BP oil spill in late-April 2010, the Minerals Management Service, the agency that managed leasing and regulation, was split up into three parts.

Addressing the reorganization, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar, said: “We will be able to strengthen oversight of the companies that develop our nation’s energy resources.”

He addr essed a per ceived conflict of interest between departments due to the leas-

night, but it also happens when we wake up in the morning and at other times of day. Nevertheless, I find myself yawning more often when I’m sleepy (or having trouble waking up).

Yawns do seem to pass from person to person, as if they were contagious. What causes this? It’s probably the power of suggestion. We see someone yawn, and all of a sudden we

ing and regulatory functions being in one agency — one brings in revenue and one regulates (and perhaps punishes) the businesses generating the income.

His mid-May 2010 actions bring his new Secr etarial Order to reorganize a different agency into question.

On Oct. 26, 2011, Secretary Salazar signed Secretarial Order 3315 that will consolidate the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement (OSM) within the Bureau of Land Management.

The order states that “fee collections” and “regulation,

also need to yawn. Maybe it’s a behavior that is programmed into us. Maybe it’s a way of showing someone else that we are connected and sympathetic to them.

None of the theories about why we yawn have been proven.

But there are still lots of theories, anyway.

People used to think yawning meant our bodies weren’t getting enough oxygen, because yawning forces us to take in more air. But a study in 1987 debunked this theory. When volunteers were exposed to high oxygen levels, they didn’t yawn any less.

Some believe that yawning stretches out the lungs and nearby tissues, preventing tiny airways in the lungs from col-

inspection and enforcement, and state program oversight” will now be integrated — the very tasks split out within the MMS reorganization.

Because this new or der seems in direct contradiction to the 2010 SO 3299, it raises suspicion as to the true purpose of the agency reorganization — especially since the impacted industry is the administration’s favorite villain — coal.

SO 3315 was announced to the surprise of most in the industry and to those in OSM. Charlie Boddy, a mining and government relations consultant with more than

lapsing. Yawning may also help make us more alert after a period of relaxation, because it’s associated with stretching of the muscles and joints and an increased heart rate. Both of those theories seem reasonable to me, particularly the first one.

My red-flag question to you, if you were my patient, would be, Has your yawning increased beyond the nor mal amount recently? Believe it or not, yawning may be a sign of disease.

Excessive yawning has been observed among people with multiple sclerosis, ALS (also called Lou Gehrig’s disease), following radiation treatments, and among people treated for

40 years in the industry and former vice president of government relations with Usibelli Coal Mine Inc., said when he first hear d the announcement, he thought it was a joke. “It is,” he said, “without a doubt, the most bizarre proposal to come out of the Obama Administration.”

The fact that there was no consultation with the stakeholders, states or Congress raises additional concerns. If there was a desire to work with the industry, the general belief is that they would

Parkinson’s disease. Rarely, it may precede a migraine headache.

Don’t misunderstand: If you find yourself yawning more often than usual, the chance that you have any of these diseases is still very small. I raise this point only to say that when a patient tells me that he or she is yawning more

often than usual, I look harder for other symptoms.

That’s why I think that noticeable changes in the amount you yawn may be worth mentioning to your doctor. Or maybe you just need to get more sleep.

have been involved. The order’s surprise element can’t mean good things for coal mining.

On Nov. 4, as a part of a hearing on an investigation into a re-write of the 2008 Stream Buffer Zone Rule, Representative Doug Lamborn, R-Colo., stated: “In addition, we will also discuss the recent Secretarial Order requiring the merger of the Of fice of Sur face Mining with the Bureau of Land Management. A proposal I am deeply concerned about impacting the ability of the nation’s ability to access our vast coal resources. Furthermore there are clear statutory limitations prohibiting the OSM from leasing or promoting coal, which is a key responsibility of the BLM.” Doc Hastings, R-Wash., chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee, issued the following statement: “I have serious concerns about this Secretarial Order to suddenly and dramatically alter the management of coal mining and the multiple-use of Western BLM lands. The Obama Administration has not made secret its desire to put an end to America’s coal-mining industry, and this appears to be one more step in that direction.”

Because of the “bombshell” nature of the announcement, the administration’s attitude toward the coal industry, the totally different missions of the OSM and the BLM, and the fact that they operate under different specific provisions and acts of Congress, the proposed merger can only be considered suspect.

In an inter nal memo to the DOI team, Secretary Salazar states: “This integration reflects our ongoing commitment to good gover nment” and claims that it is about “Doing more in a limited budget environment.”

The OSM is a little agency by comparison to the BLM. OSM's 2011 budget appropriation is about $160 million compared to more than $1.1 billion for BLM. OSM has about 500 employees, compared to 10,000 at BLM. “In the scheme of government fat, OSM is one of the tiniest little targets you can take aim at,” said Kathy Karpan, a former OSM director. “It's a little, tiny entity that would be lost at BLM.” Industry sources fear that OSM will

be lost inside the BLM and view the move as a way to make coal mining more dif ficult; to delay per mitting.

Normally a coal mine can be permitted through OSM in less than a year. Permitting of a hard rock mine through the BLM can take 7-10 years.

The OSM primarily deals with mines on private or Indian lands — mostly in the east. They cooperate with the states. They do regulation.

The BLM primarily deals with federal lands — mostly in the west. They have little experience with private lands or state agencies. They generate revenues.

Like last year’s SO 3310 that circumvented Congress’ unique ability to designate Wilderness Areas by creating a new “Wild Lands” designation, SO 3315 brings authority into question.

Insiders believe that a reorganization of this magnitude requires congressional action.

Some industry groups are taking a wait-and-see approach: “It may be a good idea, but no one really knows.”

Coal mining companies are still evaluating, but initial reactions are not supportive.

History tells us that we do not need to “wait and see.” The longer there is silence, the harder it will be to reverse the or der, which is scheduled to become effective Dec. 1 — following consultation with applicable congressional committees and will remain in effect until “amended, superseded, or revoked, whichever occurs first.”

While this may seem like a little issue in light of all the big problems we are facing in America, it is one more in a string of power grabs designed to take away authority from the states and move it to the federal government — meaning more centralized power.

Don’t let them slip it in until “revoked.” Call Congress and stop SO 3315 before it starts.

Ultimately, less coal mining means job cuts, higher electricity prices and a diminished America.

The fine art of eating an elephant A6 Sunday, November 13, 2011

You find yourself eyeball to eyeball looking up at an elephant. He is right in front of you, directly between you and where you want to be. What do you do?

What is in your world that appears to be too big for you to conquer? What is it that overwhelms you? What is ahead of you in the path of life that has got you worried and questioning that you might not be able to get past it?

Sometimes life just overwhelms us. It knocks us back on our rear.

Sometimes it seems hopeless. It looms over us and we wonder how we can make progress moving forward. We are looking up at a wall that must be scaled, a mountain that must be climbed.

Our worries and fears of the future cause us to not live today to the fullest. We allow ourselves to be robbed of our quality of life today by something in front of us.

It may be days, weeks or months ahead, yet nevertheless, there it is, dead ahead.

difficult situation. If you don’t find yourself looking up at sizeable challenges ahead, you are likely living too much within your comfort zone. You probably need to push yourself, or maybe you need to be pushed.

ward. Every one of us can eat an elephant if we do it one bite at a time.

There are two keys to remember in eating an elephant when you come upon one. First, the only way to get by the elephant is to take action. Merely standing in front of the elephant doesn’t help you get by it. Sometimes we think that if we stand still and stay the same long enough, the problem will go away. No action equals no solution.

The second key to eating an elephant is to break it down into manageable pieces. There is no way to get by such a sizable challenge without reducing the challenge to something that is manageable. One bite at a time, the elephant will go away and the path will become clear.

Any one of us can eat an elephant given motivation and time.

There will not be an elephant that you can’t conquer. We are told in the Bible in 1 Corinthians 10:13, “No testing has overtaken you that is not common to everyone. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tested beyond your

huge obstacle in front of you do you bolt and run? Do you become paralyzed with fear? Do your knees shake uncontrollably? Or do you continue to move forward, finding a way to take on the challenge ahead?

Let’s go back to the elephant analogy. We can equate these situations to having an elephant on the path in front of us. If we are on a narrow path with no option of going around the elephant ahead, we have no choice but to encounter the elephant if we want to get where we want to go.

We come upon the elephant and find ourselves eyeball to eyeball with it. We realize that the elephant is much bigger than we are and we recognize the elephant is not going to move voluntarily.

Along my path of life I often come upon elephants. Each time this occurs I ask myself the question, “How do you eat an elephant?� The answer is always the same, “One bite at a time.� If the task ahead seems overwhelming and too much to take on as a whole, I break it down into bitesize pieces and keep moving for-

Dear Editor: I saw the letter by Dick Bartlett (Sept. 9) and it appears he is desperately trying to find a way to prove the Trinity. He wants us to magically change history and tell all the historians that know when the teaching of the Trinity actually began that they are wrong. As a matter of fact, I challenge Bartlett to write to all the historians and publishers of the encyclopedias, and dictionaries and tell them that they ever translated John 1:1 “a god,� he should look at these other translations: The New Testament in an Improved Version (1808) “the word was a god,� The Diaglott “a god was the word,� The New Testament (L. Thimme, 1919) “and God of a sort the word was,� The Complete Bible, An American Translation “the Word was Divine,� The Authentic New Testament (H.J. Schonfield) “the Word was divine,� The New Translation of the Bible (Moffatt) “the logos was divine,� The New Testament (R. Boehmer) “itself of divine being,� The New Testament (C. Stage, 1907) “itself of divine being,� The New Testament (F. Pfaefflin, 1919) “and was of divine weightiness.�

So as you can see, other people correctly understood the correct translation of John 1:1. Examine that scripture further and you

see it talks about the “beginning as is shown in Proberbs 8:22 “The Lord himself produced me as the beginning of his way, the earliest of his achievements of long ago.�

Colossions 1:15 calls him “the firstborn of all creation� and Revelation 3:14 says he is the “beginning of the creation by God.� In heaven he is known as the chief angel or “Archangel� Michael who commands the armies of heaven first in throwing Satan and the demons out and then in destroying all the useless, worthless governments, religions and wicked people on the Earth at Armageddon, making way for his wonderful Kingdom Government to rule the Earth from heaven.

And that brings me to the final point: The reason Trinitarians know nothing about the Kingdom is because they have a poorly translated Bible that says “the kingdom of God is within you� (Luke 17:21) and so assume that the kingdom must be some good feeling inside your heart instead of what it actually is, a new heavenly world government (Isaiah 9:6,7). The scripture, when translated correctly, actually says, “the kingdom of God is in your midst.� Jesus said this to the Pharisees because the future king of that Kingdom was standing right in front of them. He was definitely not telling the unbelieving Pharisees that God’s Kingdom was in their stubborn hearts! So once

again, they’ve fallen victim to poor translators with a hidden agenda. And by the way, the King James Version translators made another mistake in Luke 23:43. The comma has been put in the wrong place, which totally changes the meaning of the verse. It should say, “Truly I tell you today, You will be with me in paradise.� Not “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.�

They absolutely were not in paradise that day! They were in the grave. Jesus was said to be in hell (which is simply the grave) for those following three days before being resurrected. Jesus was telling him that day, that he would be with this evildoer in paradise when Jesus, ruling the Earth from heaven in the near future, resurrects him back to life on Earth.

Political bigotry

Dear Editor: There is only one acceptable form of bigotry left in the United States. Political bigotry.

This recent exchange between Ann Coulter and Sean Hannity is a perfect example.

Sean Hannity asked Ann Coulter why lib-

erals were so “threatened� by Herman Cain.

Because “Our blacks are so much better than their blacks,� she said, speaking of Democrats.

Really Ann? What about Martin Luther King Jr.?

How about the late Barbara Jordan, a congresswoman from Texas? She was recently honored on a postage stamp. Her oratory was classic.

What about Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall, Fannie Lou Hamer, Mary McLeod Bethune, Medgar Evers and Rosa Parks?

That is not to say there aren’t successful and notable African Americans who are conservatives like Herman Cain.

Thomas Sowell, Shelby Steele, Armstrong Williams, Walter Williams and Clarence Thomas come to mind. Are these people better than the Democrats I mentioned? Not to my way of thinking.

What’s the matter with politics today? The last major political party that designated a group of people inferior existed in Germany in the 1930s and ’40s. Let’s hope Ann Coulter and other conservative talk radio hosts and their followers don’t try to lead us down that road.

It is very comforting to know that God will not allow us to be given more than we can handle. If He leads you to it, He will see you through it.

My challenge to you is to recognize that elephants on your path are a way of life. They’d better be.

If you do not anticipate encountering elephants ahead, then you are likely not doing much with your life. It is important to keep moving as action will bring results. Don’t be a coward and freeze.

A new Christmas tradition

Dear Editor: As the holidays approach, let’s give Christmas a new meaning in America.

At least we can in Roswell!

The giant Asian factories are kicking into high gear to provide Americans with monstrous piles of cheaply produced goods — merchandise that has been produced at the expense of American labor. This year will be different.

This year Americans will give the gift of genuine concern for other Americans. There is no longer an excuse that, at gift giving time, nothing can be found that is produced by American hands. Yes there is!

It’s time to think outside the box, people. Who says a gift needs to fit in a shirt box, wrapped in Chinese produced wrapping paper?

Everyone — yes everyone — gets their hair cut. How about gift certificates from your local American hair salon or barber?

Gym membership? It’s appropriate for all ages who are thinking about some health improvement.

Who wouldn’t appreciate getting their car detailed?

Small, American owned detail shops and car washes would love to sell you a gift certificate or a book of gift certificates.

Are you one of those extravagant givers who think nothing of plunking down the Benjamins on a Chinese made flat-screen? Perhaps that grateful gift receiver would like his driveway sealed, or lawn mowed for the summer, or driveway plowed all winter, or games at the local golf course.

There are many, many owner-run restaurants — all offering gift certificates. And, if your intended isn’t the fancy eatery sort, what about a half dozen breakfasts at the local breakfast joint. Remember, folks this isn’t about big national chains — this is about supporting your home town Americans with their financial lives on the line to keep their doors open.

How many people couldn’t use an oil change for their car, truck or motorcycle, done at a shop run by the American working guy?

Thinking about a heartfelt gift for mom? Mom would love the services of a local cleaning lady for a day.

My computer could use a tune-up, and I know I can find some young guy who is struggling to get his repair business up and running.

OK, you were looking for something more personal. Local crafts people spin their own wool and knit them into scarves. They make jewelry, and pottery and beautiful wooden boxes.

Plan your holiday outings at local, owner operated restaurants and leave your server a nice tip. And, how about going out to see a play or ballet at your hometown theater? Musicians need love too, so find a venue showcasing local bands.

Honestly, people, do you really need to buy another 10,000 Chinese lights for the house? When you buy a $5 string of lights, about 50 cents stays in the community. If you have those kinds of bucks to burn, leave the mailman, trash guy or babysitter a nice big tip.

You see, Christmas is no longer about draining American pockets so that China can build another glittering city.

Christmas is now about caring about us, encouraging American small businesses to keep plugging away to follow their dreams. And, when we care about other Americans, we care about our communities, and the benefits come back to us in ways we couldn’t imagine. Let’s make this the new American Christmas tradition.

We all know, Roswell has hundreds of small businesses that would benefit from our help, as well as our friends enjoying special gifts.

May GOD bless everyone who will help introduce this new tradition!

It was clear that the Catholic teachings of hellfire, immortal soul and trinity are very dear to Parsons and he doesn’t care what the Bible says or historians or even what the Catholic church, which established these teachings, says. And he doesn’t care that they make no sense. He also wants people to kill for their country and he wants to get paid to preach the word of God. Does that pretty much sum it up? So is there any point to continue this discussion? Are we going to get a weekly letter telling us to “burn in hell”? I agree with all the others, please believe what you want to believe and preach what you want in your own church, but spare us the sermons.

I do want to thank Parsons for helping me examine Bible teachings and see the facts clearly. I have a renewed interest in studying what the early Christians believed and continuing the work Jesus started of preaching the good news of the Kingdom. I now see the uselessness of supporting man made governments and I now see that God doesn’t burn people in hell. It’s all making sense now and it’s such a relief. I used to wonder how people could go to war and be Christians. I used to wonder how I could tell if a religion was a false religion and where all the confusing teachings came from. Who knew that they would explain it in their own encyclopedias? History books have been a big help and getting an accurate Bible translation has also helped.

Finally, I was a bit surprised that Parsons would use such a poor illustration for the Trinity. A man who is a father, son and husband would at all times know the exact same things and have the same qualities, because of course, he is always the same person. He tries to apply this to God, the Son and the Holy Spirit. But if God and his Son were two separate beings we would see this in the scriptures. God would know some things that Jesus would not know, such as when the end would come (Matt. 24:26).

God would also have authority that the Son would not have, such as choosing people to go to heaven (Matt.

20:23). God would also not be equal to his Son, as when Jesus said his Father was greater than him (John 14:28).

And the list goes on and on. But, as I said before, Dan Parsons made it clear that all that doesn’t matter. He believes what he wants and that’s that. So, I hope your church members who go to war and lose against the Taliban the way they lost against the Vietnamese will not blame God and I hope that when the government you voted for and put all your faith in goes right down the drain, you’ll understand that this is what you asked for. No one forced you to go into that voting booth and turn your back on God’s Kingdom Government and your one leader Jesus.

Sincerely, Elaine Herron Roswell

The Lake Arthur Panther football team poses for a picture with its championship trophy, banner and bracket after beating Clovis Christian 54-26 in the NMAA 6-Man state championship game at Yucca Field in Clovis, Saturday.

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

CLOVIS — Some people counted them out at the beginning of the season. People said they couldn’t get back to the top without what they lost from last year or that they wouldn’t have horses to run in the lead pack.

They were the Lake Arthur Panthers and they proved all those detractors wrong on a wind-swept afternoon at Yucca Field in Clovis.

The Panthers returned to the top of 6-Man football with a 54-26 win over Clovis Christian in the NMAA 6-Man state championship, Saturday.

“It’s the greatest feeling in the world,” said Ever Tarango, who is one of only three seniors on the Panther roster with Hector Salcido and Gerardo Rubio.

“Especially when it is your senior year and you go out with a big blast. I just thank my whole team for making this happen for me.”

BRIEFS COACK K TIES BOBBY KNIGHT

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Mike Krzyzewski tied Bob Knight atop the Division I men’s career wins list with his 902nd victory in No. 6 Duke’s 96-55 rout against Presbyterian on Saturday.

Ryan Kelly scored 17 points for the Blue Devils (2-0), who shot 61 percent and used a huge first-half run to deliver another milestone victory to their Hall of Fame coach.

Coach K improved to 902-284 during his 37th season as a college coach at Army and Duke. He can pass Knight — his coach and mentor — on Tuesday night against Michigan State at Madison Square Garden.

Krzyzewski continued his steady climb up the wins list by matching Knight — for whom he played point guard at Army in the 1960s. The Cameron Crazies chanted “902” as the final seconds ticked away, then chanted his name after the horn.

Krzyzewski briefly huddled with the Blue Devils on the court, then hustled into the locker room as the song “Celebration” blared from the speakers.

Freshman Austin Rivers scored 15 points, Miles Plumlee had 13 points and 11 rebounds and younger brother Mason Plumlee added 13 points for Duke, which improved on a couple of streaks at Cameron Indoor Stadium. The Blue Devils won their NCAAbest 38th straight home game and their 88th in a row against nonconference opponents at home.

The biggest challenge the Blue Devils faced — aside from all the attention for their coach’s march toward history — was the possibility of fatigue after a quick turnaround. The game against Presbyterian started roughly 17 hours after Duke’s tighter-thanexpected, 77-76 victory over pesky mid-major Belmont in the opener.

Duke outscored Presbyterian 29-6 midway through the first half to push its lead well into double figures and remove all the drama from this one.

Cook and Seth Curry finished with 10 points apiece.

Tarango may have thanked his teammates during the post-game interview, but his teammates should probably be thanking him.

He single-handedly outscored Clovis Christian after scoring three touchdowns and kicking six PAT tries to finish with 30 points.

His back-to-back TDs in a span of less than two minutes in the third quarter are what put the game out of reach.

With Lake Arthur clinging to a 22-20 lead after an Eagle score with 3:59 left, Tarango returned a kickoff 65 yards for a score to put LA on top 30-20.

On Clovis’ ensuing drive, Tarango put his stamp on the game again.

BRIAN BYRD SPECIAL TO THE DAILY RECORD

The Roswell Coyotes accomplished something on Saturday that they had not done in more than 10 years — they won a home playoff game and gave fourth-year head coach Robert Arreola his first playoff victory.

Led by a defense that limited the high-octane of fense of the Grants Pirates to 186 total yards, the Coyotes (7-4) cruised 42-6 at the Wool Bowl and advanced into the quarterfinal round of the 4A playoffs.

Panther 5 and weaved his way into open field en route to a 75-yard pick-six.

The Panthers led 38-20 at that point and the feeling of inevitability started to sink in on the Eagle sideline.

In the fourth quarter, a pair of G. Rubio touchdown catches sandwiched a 62yard TD run by Clovis Christian’s Kevin Naceanceno to provide the final margin.

“My mind cleared and I was just like, ‘We did it. We got the team that beat us early in the season. We fought the adversity and we got them finally,’” said Tarango about what went through his mind after the final seconds ticked off the clock, alluding to Lake Arthur’s loss to the Eagles in Week 2.

“It feels freaking awesome right now to end my high-school career with a state championship,” said G. Rubio, who finished with two catches — both touchdowns — for 64 yards.

“You’ve got pretty much mixed emotions,” he said about the final seconds of the game. “You’ve got pain circulating your body from the hits you’ve been taking, but your eyes fill up because you know you’ve already won and all you have to do is kneel down

and take your trophy.”

That trophy returns to Lake Arthur after spending a year with Clovis Christian. It will sit beside the 2009 trophy that the Panthers won over Hondo Valley.

And it might not be returning to Lake Arthur without the efforts of Cody Dalton.

To put it bluntly, Dalton was a force, both on the of fensive and defensive sides of the ball.

He threw for 101 yards and two scores and ran for 59 yards and a TD. “It felt really amazing to even be at this level, but to make those plays at this level, it just put it over the top,” the freshman said about his play. “We knew we had to come in and stop (Naceanceno) and that’s what my coach wanted me to do, so I blitzed in the middle and I got him.

“There were times that he got away, but my team backed me up. That’s all I needed. That’s all anybody needs, is a good team to back them up. And we have that. We have it this year, next year and years to come.”

The “meat” of that team is Miguel “Meatball” Rubio, and he turned in another “meaty” performance for the Panthers.

The sophomore ran for 178 yards and a TD despite an ankle injury he sustained on Lake Arthur’s first drive of the game.

The Lake Arthur Panthers hoist the 2011 NMAA state championship trophy after they beat Clovis Christian 54-26 in the state title game at Yucca Field in Clovis.

“It’s unexplainable,” he said about being a state champion. “It’s really good.

My brother won a state championship and I’ve always wanted to top him.

“We’re equal right now. It just feels so good.”

It was Rubio’s lone TD

run, a 65-yarder, that put Lake Arthur ahead for good in the second half.

After a low-scoring first half that saw Lake Arthur with an 8-6 halftime lead, the Panthers exploded for 30 third-quarter points.

A Tarango 2-yard run opened the half to make it 14-6, but the Eagles tied the game at 14 when Naceanceno — who ran for 280 yards and two TDs on 34 carries — scampered in for a 30-yard TD and Zech

Lucero added the kick PAT. Just 16 seconds later, Rubio was rumbling into the end zone for a 65-yard score on the first play of Lake Arthur’s ensuing drive.

Tarango added the PAT to put the Panthers on top for the remainder.

Kenny Duong — 123 yards and two scores on 12 rushes — scored on Clovis’ next drive, but Lucero’s was blocked. kick Tarango’s kick return TD

came next, followed shortly thereafter by his pick six to cap the third quarter scoring.

“It’s surreal,” said Panther coach Jose Cruz Porras about being a state champion. “This whole season has been surreal.”

Who needs the surreal when you have the reality.

And that reality is that the Lake Arthur Panthers are the 2011 NMAA 6-Man state champions. kjkeller@roswell-record.com

as a team today,” Arreola said. “Everyone was swar ming to the ball.

Georgie (Aho) played big for us today as well as Nate (Lopez), and some of the other guys.

“The secondary did a great job today. A total team ef fort. Everyone doing their part makes us better defensively.”

Roswell jumped ahead 7-0 with 7:12 left in the first quarter on a 60-yard James Singleton run.

The Coyotes extended the lead on their next possession with the assistance of a facemask and holding penalty by the Pirates. Singleton then scampered in from 26 yards out to make the score 14-0 with 4:13 left in the first quarter.

After both teams traded

possessions, Grants would find the end zone for the only time with a 1-yard run by quarterback Robert Ramirez.

Roswell answered on its next possession with a Singleton to Jacob Sedillo 15-yard scoring strike to make the halftime score 21-6 in favor of the Coyotes.

The second half was all Roswell.

The defense got in on the act when Sedillo returned a Pirate fumble from 2 yards out to put Roswell up 28-6 with 4:04 left in the third period.

When Grants’ next possession resulted in a punt, Roswell only needed three plays to find the end zone again.

A 15-yard pitch pass from tailback Andrew Collier to Sedillo made the score 35-6 in favor of the Coyotes.

After another failed possession resulted in a

turnover on downs for the Pirates (7-4), Sedillo capped off the scoring for the Coyotes by hauling in a 41-yard pass from Singleton.

Sedillo turned in a monster performance for the Coyotes. He scored three touchdowns through the air on four catches for 79 yards and helped lead the defensive surge against the Pirates.

His performance was no surprise to Arreola.

“He’s one of those players that makes things happen, both offensively and defensively,” Arreola said. “He’s been playing both ways. When Richard (Medrano) went out early in the game, he stepped up and made some big plays for us.”

Roswell will look to continue its season next week when the Coyotes travel to Aztec to take on the second-seeded Tigers. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m.

Manny Pacquiao escapes with a decision

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Manny Pacquiao was taken to the limit Saturday night before escaping with a majority decision win over Juan Manuel Marquez in their welterweight title fight.

Pacquiao won on two scorecards, while the third ringside judge had it a draw. It was a narrow escape for the Filipino congressman, who took as much punishment as he got over 12 rounds.

The third fight between the two was as close as the previous two, and by the time they finished 12 rounds the outcome was still in doubt. Pacquiao won some rounds with sheer agression, while Marquez won others with brilliant counterpunching, keeping Pacquiao from getting inside.

Marquez was a 7-1 underdog, but it was clear early he would be in this fight. He picked Pacquiao apart with right hands almost every time he tried to get inside, and landed good hard flurries throughout the fight.

Pacquiao was the aggressor throughout, and landed some sharp punches of his own.

But when the decision was announced, the crowd booed roundly and, once again Marquez had lost a close fight.

One ringside judge had it a 114-114 draw, while two others favored Pacquiao by 115113 and 116-112. The Associated Press had it 114-114.

The sellout crowd at the MGM Grand arena threw bottles and cans toward ringside after the decision was announced, with one full can hitting a ringside writer. Marquez, who had been bitter about the scoring in the first two fights, stormed out of the ring.

Pacquiao continued his remarkable run with the win, but it didn’t come easy. He had trouble all night finding his range and, when he did get inside, Marquez often moved to the side and landed a counter right hand.

It was the third close fight between the two men, though this one was fought at 144 pounds instead of 125 as was their first fight seven years ago. That fight was a draw, while Pacquiao won a split decision in the second bout in 2008 at 130 pounds.

“My fans are very happy because they thought I won,” Pacquiao said when asked about the crowd reaction.

Marquez fought going backward all night, and that might have been his undoing. While he landed well at times, Pacquiao was in his face most of the night.

“I got robbed,” Marquez said. “I don’t know what else I can do to win.”

Pacquiao earned a minimum $22 million for the fight, while Marquez got $5 million.

Top 25 Roundup No. 1 LSU 42, Western Kentucky 9 BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Alfred Blue and Kenny Hilliard each scored two touchdowns, and No. 1 LSU overcame a slow start.

One week after playing most of LSU’s 9-6 overtime victory at Alabama, Jordan Jefferson made his first start of the season against the Hilltoppers, hitting 8 of 14 passes for 168 yards, including a 59-yard scoring strike to Rueben Randle.

LSU (10-0), which came in favored by nearly six touchdowns, led only 14-7 at halftime before dominating the second half.

Keshawn Simpson had a 2-yard touchdown run for Western Kentucky (5-5), which saw its winning streak end at five.

Hilltoppers quarterback Kuwaun Jakes completed 11 of 24 passes for 97 yards and was intercepted once by linebacker Tahj Jones.

No. 2 OKLAHOMA STATE 66, TEXAS TECH 6 LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — Brandon Weeden threw for 423 yards and five touchdowns and Joseph Randle ran for three more scores to send the Cowboys to the first 10-0 start in school history.

The Cowboys, who improved to 7-0 in the Big 12, next play at Iowa State before closing their season at home against Oklahoma in the Bedlam game. Win both, and they likely will be headed to the BCS championship game.

Weeden threw touchdown passes of 2, 27, 28, 48 and 66 yards, and had no interceptions before his backup came in late in the third quarter. Justin Blackmon and Josh Cooper each had more than 100 yards receiving.

It was the Red Raiders’ most lopsided loss ever and the most points allowed in program history. Seth Doege completed 25 of 43 passes for a season-low 169 yards and an interception for Texas Tech (5-5, 2-5).

No. 4 Alabama 24, Mississippi State 7 STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) — Trent Richardson rushed for 127 yards and a touchdown and Alabama’s defense gave up just 131 total yards.

It was a typical no-frills victory for Alabama (9-1, 6-1 Southeastern Conference), which has won nine of its last 11 against Mississippi State, including four straight. The Crimson Tide defense has held 11 straight opponents to 14 points or less.

Alabama struggled again with field goals, missing two of them in the first half after missing four in last week’s loss to No. 1 LSU. But Richardson and Eddie Lacy, who rushed for 96 yards and two touchdowns, made up for those miscues.

Mississippi State (5-5, 1-5) remains one victory from bowl eligibility. Third-year coach Dan Mullen is now 2-11 against SEC Western Division rivals, with both victories coming against Ole Miss.

The Bulldogs averaged just 2.2 yards per play.

No. 8 Arkansas 49, Tennessee 7 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Dennis Johnson accounted for 140 total yards and a pair of touchdowns and Arkansas won its sixth straight.

The Razorbacks (9-1, 5-1 Southeastern Conference) kept alive their hopes for a second-straight BCS bowl game — and possibly more. They also earned their seventh straight win against an SEC East opponent.

Johnson led Arkansas with 97 yards rushing, including a 71-yard touchdown run in the first half. He also had 43 yards receiving.

Jarius Wright added five catches for 94 yards, setting the school record for career receptions. Wright now has 154 catches, moving ahead of Anthony Eubanks’ previous record of 153.

Rajion Neal had an 11-yard TD run for the Volunteers (4-6, 0-5).

No. 9 Clemson 31, Wake Forest 28 CLEMSON, S.C. (AP) — Chandler Catanzaro kicked a 43-yard field goal as time expired and No. 9 Clemson rallied from 14 points down in the second half to win the ACC Atlantic Division title.

Catanzaro missed a 30-yard attempt 2 minutes before his game-winner for the Tigers (9-1, 6-1). However, Clemson’s defense quickly got the ball back for one last drive.

This time, Catanzaro’s attempt was straight

and true and sent the Tigers to the Atlantic Coast Conference title game for the second time in three years.

Catanzaro was mobbed by teammates as fans swarmed the field in celebration.

The Tigers, 7-0 at home this year, completed their first perfect season at Death Valley since 1990 and next weekend will face North Carolina State with a chance to reach 10 wins for the first time since 1991.

Tajh Boyd overcame a poor outing with two touchdown passes after Wake Forest (55, 4-3) had taken a 28-21 lead. Andre Ellington rushed for 98 yards and two touchdowns for the Tigers.

No. 13 Michigan State 37, Iowa 21 IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Kirk Cousins threw for 260 yards and three touchdowns and 13th-ranked Michigan State took control of the Big Ten’s Legends Division.

B.J. Cunningham caught a pair of TD passes for the Spartans, who snapped a seven-game losing streak at Iowa dating to 1989.

Michigan State (8-2, 5-1) took a commanding 31-7 lead with two touchdowns in a 36-second stretch late in the second quarter.

Cunningham followed Le’Veon Bell’s 25-yard TD run with a 22-yard touchdown catch to put Michigan State up by 24 at the break.

The Spartans now can earn a spot in the Big Ten title game with wins over Indiana and Northwestern in the next two weeks.

James Vandenberg threw for 262 yards and two touchdowns for Iowa (6-4, 3-3), which absorbed its first home loss.

No. 14 Georgia 45, No. 24 Auburn 7 ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Aaron Murray threw four touchdown passes to surpass Matthew Stafford’s school record and Georgia moved within one win of playing for the Southeastern Conference championship.

The Bulldogs (8-2, 6-1) won their eighth in a row with a dominating performance in the Deep South’s oldest rivalry. They raced to a 35-7 halftime lead over the stunned Tigers (64, 4-3) and finished with their biggest win in the series since 1946.

Georgia can clinch its first division title in six years at home next weekend against Kentucky.

Murray now has 27 TDs for the season — nine in the past two weeks. He broke the school mark of 25 set in 2008 by Stafford, a top pick in the NFL draft.

No. 15 South Carolina 17, Florida 12 COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — South Carolina quarterback Connor Shaw ran for 88 yards and two touchdowns.

Freshman Brandon Wilds rushed for 120 yards as the No. 15 Gamecocks (8-2, 6-2 Southeastern) edged the Gators (5-5, 3-5) and left themselves a chance to make it to a second straight SEC title game.

South Carolina led 14-3 after Shaw’s sneak just before the half, but Florida rallied.

A 2-yard touchdown run by Jacoby Brissett made it 14-12, but the Gators never threatened again.

The win gives South Carolina six SEC victories for the first time since joining the league in 1992.

No. 16 Wisconsin 42, Minnesota 13 MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Montee Ball broke the Big Ten’s single-season touchdown record and 16th-ranked Wisconsin trampled Minnesota to keep Paul Bunyan’s Axe for the eighth straight year.

Russell Wilson had a season-high four touchdown passes. He was on target with every throw and every decision, connecting on all but his last throw, a deep ball that Nick Toon had in his hands but let trickle out as he hit the turf hard midway through the third quarter. Toon, who finished with eight catches for 100 yards and two scores, was shaken up on that play. Wilson went 16 for 17 for 178 yards.

In just 10 games, Ball has 27 total touchdowns.

The Gophers (2-8, 1-5) scored twice on special teams, a 5-yard run by kicker Jordan Wettstein on a fake field goal and a 96-yard return of the second-half kickoff by Duane Bennett, but they were dominated on both sides of the ball all day.

No. 17 Kansas State 53, Texas A&M 50, 4OT MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — Collin Klein scored on a sneak in the fourth overtime for his sixth touchdown of the game, giving Kansas State a dramatic victory.

tion to hand the Aggies (5-5, 3-4) their third consecutive loss.

The Aggies had the ball first in the fourth overtime and moved down to the Kansas State 3 before their drive stalled. Facing fourth-and-1, coach Mike Sherman played it safe and kicked the field goal, and that gave Kansas State the opening it needed.

Klein pounded forward for three yards on third-and-3 at the 18 for a first down, and a pass interference call on Toney Hurd Jr. in the end zone gave Kansas State the ball at the 2.

Klein went straight up the middle twice, getting across the goal line on his second try as the crowd erupted, and the Wildcats poured off the sideline to celebrate the victory.

Missouri 17, No. 21 Texas 5 COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Kendial Lawrence topped 100 yards with a touchdown in relief of injured Henry Josey and Missouri ended a six-game losing streak in the series.

James Franklin completed his first 10 passes and ran for a 2-yard score for the Tigers (5-5, 3-4 Big 12), who beat Texas for the first time since 1997. Lawrence had 106 yards on 18 carries with a 35-yard score in the second quarter.

Texas (6-3, 3-3) entered with injury concerns at running back and was held to 76 yards rushing in only its third road game of the year. Missouri allowed only a chip-shot field goal for the game’s first score and a safety off a blocked punt in the third quarter.

Texas was kept out of the end zone for first time since 2004.

No. 22 Michigan 31, Illinois 14 CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Fitzgerald Toussaint ran for 192 yards and a touchdown and backup quarterback Devin Gardner threw a key TD pass for Michigan.

Denard Robinson didn’t play after a big third-quarter hit. Details about his injury weren’t available. Gardner came in and hit Martavious Odoms for a fourth quarter touchdown that gave Michigan (8-2, 4-2 Big Ten) a 24-7 lead after Illinois scored.

The Illini (6-4, 2-4) finished with 214 yards of offense but had just 30 at halftime. They’ve lost four straight.

the NMMI defense broke down in the second half.

“Our defense kind of let us down in the second half,” Schooley said. “We should have been able to maintain (the lead we had).

NMMI fell behind by as many as 16 in the second half, but came back to make things interesting late, something Schooley said he liked to see out of his team.

Dos Santos claims Velasquez’s UFC belt in Fox show

ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Junior Dos Santos stopped Cain Velasquez just 1:04 into their UFC heavyweight title bout Saturday night, claiming Velasquez’s belt and bringing a swift end to the mixed martial arts promotion’s prime-time network debut.

Dos Santos hit Velasquez with an overhand right early in the first round, staggering the previously unbeaten champion to the canvas. The Brazilian challenger jumped onto Velasquez, who defended himself briefly before finally succumbing to Dos Santos’ relentless ground-and-pound blows.

The brief fight was the only event on a one-hour broadcast on Fox, which signed the UFC to a seven-year broadcast deal earlier this year.

The national television audience got a taste of MMA’s violence, but not much else in the incredibly short fight. UFC President Dana White chose these two fearsome fighters for his Fox debut because of the high potential for a stoppage victory — but White probably wasn’t thrilled with just how quickly that stoppage arrived.

Dos Santos (14-1) burst into tears in celebration, while Velasquez (9-1) apologized to his fans after the bout, saying the punch disrupted his equilibrium. The first minute before Dos Santos’ decisive blow included almost no action except a takedown attempt by Velasquez that was thwarted by Dos Santos.

Velasquez hadn’t fought since October 2010, when he claimed the belt from Brock Lesnar in the same octagon at Honda Center.

After recovering from surgery on his torn rotator cuff, Velasquez knew he had a tough comeback fight against Dos Santos, the preternaturally strong boxing specialist who had won eight straight bouts.

Dos Santos earned the title shot with a victory over Shane Carwin in Vancouver in June. His next opponent is expected to be the winner of Lesnar’s bout against Alistair Overeem in Las Vegas on Dec. 30.

Exactly 18 years to the day after the UFC debuted with an eight-man tournament featuring no weight classes and one-round fights to the finish with almost no rules, MMA’s dominant promotional company kicked off its long-anticipated major television contract with its first live prime-time show. Most of the broadcast was taken up by a primer on MMA and the two fighters — along with more postfight analysis than expected.

Velasquez and Dos Santos both are talented boxers who had ended nearly all of their fights by early stoppage. Velasquez was a star wrestler at Arizona State, while Dos Santos is fluent in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. They are the top two young heavyweights in MMA, quietly building toward this bout while Lesnar, the former pro wrestler, gets much of the casual fans’ attention.

Benson Henderson won a one-sided unanimous decision over Clay Guida in the final undercard fight at Honda Center, which has hosted several major MMA events in the sport’s relatively short history.

That’s quack-tastic: Ducks upend Stanford

STANFORD, Calif. (AP) — LaMichael James ran for 146 yards and three touchdowns and No. 6 Oregon sprinted past third-ranked Stanford 53-30 on Saturday night, giving Andrew Luck’s Heisman Trophy campaign a blemish and taking a giant step toward hosting the inaugural Pac-12 championship.

James ran for scores from 1, 4 and 58 yards and had Stanford (9-1, 7-1) defenders slipping all over a slick field. The Ducks (9-1, 7-0) ended the nation’s best winning streak at 17 games — which the Cardinal began after a loss in Eugene more than a year ago — and can clinch the league’s North Division crown over Stanford with a win in one of their final two games.

Luck threw for 271 yards and three touchdowns with two interceptions and a fumble. Stanford had five total turnovers.

The Quack Attack just has Luck’s number.

Oregon’s no-huddle, spread-option ended any hopes of Stanford’s first national championship.

Instead, the Ducks are suddenly back in the BCS title mix after rolling off their ninth straight victory — and first against a top-five team on the road team — since a season-opening loss against top-ranked LSU. Darron Thomas threw for 155 yards and three touchdowns to anchor one big-

Penn State players Derek Moye (6), Quinn Barham (67), Devon Still (71) and Drew Astorino (28) link arms as they lead the team onto the field before the Nittany Lions’ loss to Nebraska, Saturday.

STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — If they didn’t know better, fans in Happy Valley would have thought they were watching Joe Paterno’s team.

No. 12 Penn State played tough defense and basic of fense. The Nittany Lions fought back when they were down, trying to rally from a 17-point deficit against No. 19 Nebraska on Saturday.

But on a day when the outcome was secondary, Penn State began the journey forward from a devastating scandal and the firing of Paterno with a draining loss, 1714 to the Cornhuskers.

The game closed a tumultuous week that began with the arrest of former defensive coordinator Jerry Sandusky on shocking child sexual abuse charges. Major college football’s winningest coach was pushed out in the aftermath.

“I was awful proud,” said interim coach Tom Bradley, who took over for the 84year -old Paterno. “They got down 17-0.

They didn’t quit. They hung tough.”

No one would have blamed the Nittany Lions (8-2, 5-1 Big Ten) if they decided to pack it in. But they didn’t.

Time expired after a fourth-down pass

by Matt McGloin fell harmlessly to the ground. McGloin and his teammates soon turned toward the tunnel to file back to the locker room. Most were silent. Some had blank stares.

Afterward, linebacker Nate Stupar was heartened the team ended up following Paterno’s advice. “(Bradley) kept saying, ‘Beat Nebraska.

Do what JoePa said,’” said Stupar, who had a team-high 13 tackles. “Be a team and you’ll be teammates for life and just keep that goal in mind. No matter what, stick together. That’s what we did today.”

Rex Burkhead ran for 121 yards and a touchdown for Nebraska (8-2, 4-2) before the Nittany Lions scored 14 points on two second-half touchdown runs by Stephfon Green. But a key drive ended when Silas Redd was stopped on the fourth down with 1:49 left at the Penn State 38.

School president Rod Erickson met the Nittany Lions in the locker room afterward and praised, “how much courage, how much heart, and how much character” the players had, he said.

Most Penn State fans heeded calls for a “blueout,” wearing the school’s familiar dark blue in support of victims of child sexual abuse. Fans formed the outline of a blue ribbon in the student section.

“We are ... Penn State,” roared the crowd through the afternoon, the signature State College cheer.

“I think today it just made the healing process start to begin,” Bradley said.

The last time Penn State played a game at Beaver Stadium, on Oct. 29, Paterno was feted by Spanier for his 409th career victory, the most in Division I history.

On Saturday, he was nowhere to be found — save for a few fleeting images on the video boards overhead. That was enough to get spontaneous cheers of “Joe Paterno!” ringing through the stands.

manding 36-16 lead in the third quarter.

All the Luck in the world couldn’t bring Stanford back.

tackle at the goal line and got planted in the grass.

Too late again.

While a pair of the nation’s highest-scoring offenses showed imperfections, Oregon pounced on the mistakes and ran away with points each time.

Dewitt Stuckey also intercepted a pass by Luck that set up the Ducks’ first

score, a 4-yard touchdown pass from Darron Thomas to Lavasier Tuinei that started an avalanche of Oregon offense.

James ran through the middle untouched for a 58yard touchdown to extend Oregon’s lead to 15-6 early in the second quarter. The Ducks threatened to pad their lead again until Delano Howell, with a cast around his right hand, punched the ball loose from Kenjon Barner and Stanford recovered.

Oregon coach Chip Kelly gambled all night and his offense made him look good.

On fourth-and-7 from the Stanford 41, De’Anthony Thomas took a short pass and raced down the sideline for a 41-yard TD that pushed Oregon in front 229 late in the first half. With the Ducks again about to make the game a rout, Luck answered in impressive fashion.

He led an eight-play, 84yard drive capped by a threaded 13-yard TD pass to Whalen for the second time. The crucial score with 24 seconds remaining in the half trimmed Oregon’s lead to 22-16.

It was the first time Stanford trailed at the half since at Notre Dame in 2009, when the Cardinal were down 24-20. Stanford rallied for a 45-38 win in South Bend.

No comeback this time.

TCU upsets Boise State

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — Boise State’s quest for perfection and BCS glory were dashed again by a missed field goal.

The fifth-ranked Broncos had a chance win a last-second thriller against TCU on Saturday, but freshman kicker Dan Goodale’s 39yard kick sailed wide right as time expired to give Horned Frogs a 36-35 victory.

TCU now has a clear path to the Mountain West Conference crown.

For the Broncos, losing this way may seem all too familiar. Last year, Boise State’s unbeaten season and BCS hopes were spoiled when senior Kyle Brotzman missed from short range in regulation and overtime, enabling Nevada to walk away with a 34-31 overtime win.

Kellen Moore, who drove the Broncos into scoring range in the final 55 seconds, deflected any postgame parallels to the last season’s misery in Nevada, arguing instead that losses in big games rarely come down to one player or a single player.

“We missed opportunities.

I don’t think it’s just one play, it’s a variety of plays,” said Moore, who threw for 320 yards, two touchdowns but lost for the first time at home in his career. “It’s a loss so it feels similar, but there’s not great feelings.”

The Broncos (8-1, 3-1) clearly had their chances to avoid any field goal dramatics in a back-and-forth battle between two perennial BCS busting teams.

Leading 35-28, Boise State got the ball at its own 32 with 5:37 remaining.

Moore then engineered a methodical drive and got the Broncos in scoring position when a fumble by backup running back Drew Wright was recovered by TCU (8-2, 5-0) with 2:26 remaining.

Then Casey Pachall took over — and that was bad

The sophomore was 24 of 37 for a career -best 473 yards and five touchdown passes, including scores of 75, 74 and 69 yards in the first half.

Pachall calmly marched the Horned Frogs before firing a 25-yard TD pass to Brandon Carter, who leaped over a defender to make the grab in the end zone and pull TCU within 36-35 with 1:05 remaining.

TCU coach Gary Patterson made a gutsy call, opting to put the game in Pachall’s hands and go for the lead

instead of the tie. It worked.

Pachall tossed a short pass to Josh Boyce, who fought his way into the end zone, putting TCU up 36-35.

Patterson said the decision to go for two points was easy considering the circumstances.

“We’re not going to win this if this keeps going,” Patterson said. “So, the only way we’re going to be able to do it is to steal it. We were able to get the play and get the points and we were fortunate that they missed a field goal. It’s just as simple as that.”

Patriots-Jets: Tough matchup for New England Roswell Daily Record

A month ago, everything favored the Patriots in their divisional brawl with the Jets. New England won, handing New York its third straight loss.

Rex R yan’s team has tur ned things around since, winning three in a row thanks to a bruising defense — exactly what New England has struggled against recently, and could have trouble with again Sunday night at the Meadowlands.

The Patriots have dropped successive games to the Steelers and Giants, both of whom got very physical with Tom Brady’s receivers in press coverage, then let loose the pass pressure up front. They hurried him into very un-Bradylike poor throws and mistakes.

Still, the Patriots almost never lose three in a row; the last time was in 2002 when, as defending Super Bowl champions, they dropped four straight and missed the playoffs.

“No doubts around here, and that’s me being honest,” wide receiver Deion Branch said. “Guys are still very enthusiastic about coming in, getting the game plan for this week and getting out to practice ...

“As far as the two losses, we can see the mistakes that we made during the course of the game. Very coachable, and that’s why I do know and understand why the coaches are not all down on us. We’re all mad about the losses, but at the same time there are very coachable mistakes that were made during the course of the games, and hopefully we’ll try to go out and eliminate those things so we don’t go down that road again.”

The road is exactly where the Jets don’t want to be come playoff time, which makes this prime-time meeting so vital to them.

Sure, they are 4-2 in the postseason under Ryan, all road games and the most recent victory at Foxborough. But Ryan has been stressing for months how badly his team needs to win the AFC East to ease the way to perhaps the Jets’ first Super Bowl appearance since 1969.

“We know what this game represents,” Ryan said. “We’re not afraid to talk about it. It’s not one of those, ‘well, if we don’t, there’s still a lot of season left.’ We’re approaching it like we have to have this game. We want to win our division. We think it goes through New England.”

Elsewhere Sunday, with nobody on a bye, it’s Pittsburgh at Cincinnati, Baltimore at Seattle, the New York Giants at San Francisco, New Orleans at Atlanta, Detroit at Chicago, Buffalo at Dallas, Denver at Kansas City, Houston at Tampa Bay, Jacksonville at Indianapolis, Arizona at Philadelphia, Tennessee at Carolina, Washington at Miami and St. Louis at Cleveland.

On Monday night, Minnesota is at Green Bay. The weekend began with Oakland at San Diego on Thursday night.

Pittsburgh (6-3) at Cincinnati (6-2) Yes, the Bengals are tied with the Ravens atop the AFC North. No, they haven’t beaten anyone special and this is their first true test since rallying past Buffalo five weeks ago.

But there they are.

“You have done a great job of setting yourself in a good position, but that good position doesn’t mean anything if you don’t capitalize on it,” left tackle Andrew Whitworth said. “So, it is great. It’s more than people ever expected at this point even if we didn’t do anything good from here, but it is not what we expected.”

Cincinnati mirrors Pittsburgh’s success of the past, using a staunch defense and solid running game. The Steelers have gotten away from that on offense as Ben Roethlisberger becomes more comfortable with his strong group of receivers, but the defense let them down in the final minutes against Baltimore last Sunday night.

Baltimore (6-2) at Seattle (2-6) Many in Baltimore believe quarterback Joe Flacco and the Ravens’ offense took the next step with the way it performed down the stretch at Pittsburgh. The

Sunday, November 13, 2011

defense already is staunch, so big plays from the offense could mean big results the rest of the way.

Certainly, the Ravens are solid favorites against Seattle, which has lost three in a row and has the next to worst offense in the NFC. This could be a trap game for Baltimore with Cincinnati and San Francisco up next, except the Seahawks appear vastly outmanned.

N.Y. Giants (6-2) at San Francisco (7-1) The winner at Candlestick Park will have the inside track for a postseason bye.

Indeed, the 49ers have a five-game lead over their wretched NFC West opponents and are closing in on one of the earliest division clinchings in league history.

They’ve won six in a row with a stingy defense that is tied for the league lead with 19 takeaways, and a steady, punishing running game sparked by Frank Gore.

New York comes off an uplifting comeback win at New England, breaking a bunch of Patriots home winning strings, and seems to fear no one. Without top receiver Hakeem Nicks and RB Ahmad Bradshaw, the Giants still had enough offense — and plenty of defense — to win in Foxborough.

This game also features two coaches at the top of their games: Tom Coughlin and rookie Jim Harbaugh, front-runners for Coach of the Year honors halfway through the schedule.

New Orleans (6-3) at Atlanta (5-3) A Saints win, with a bye next week, sets them up beautifully for the rest of the season. To get it, they need to show more strength in run defense and find a way to get turnovers; their eight takeaways are the fewest in the NFC. “There’s no question,” Saints coach Sean Payton said. “Having done this long enough, when teams are having success running the football against you and it’s second-and-2 or second-and-4, that has an effect on your team. When you’re the team that’s having success and are able to run the football, that’s important.”

Atlanta is one of those teams having some success running it and stopping the run.

Detroit (6-2) at Chicago (5-3) One of the success stories of the first half of the season, the Lions come off a bye eager to prove they belong in the playoff discussion. A win at Soldier Field would do just that, but they need to locate a running game; Jahvid Best has been plagued by concussion symptoms.

Chicago inserted itself into the postseason discussions with its gutsy win at Philadelphia as versatile RB Matt Forte continued his brilliant work. The Bears, winners of three straight, also can’t be happy with how the Lions took them down on national TV last month.

Buffalo (5-3) at Dallas (4-4) Dallas is so predictably unpredictable that its .500 record is fitting. The Cowboys must find some consistency quickly to become a contender, and after Buffalo they face Washington, Miami and Arizona. So now is the time, and with the emergence of RB DeMarco Murray, it might happen.

Remember, though, the Bills are no pushover, with an offense that will test Dallas’ inconsistent (of course) secondary and linebacking. Bills RB Fred Jackson could be even more of a force Sunday than is Murray.

Minnesota (2-6) at Green Bay (8-0) No Brett Favre drama in this one. Probably no drama, period.

Sure, the Packers are showing vulnerability against the pass, especially the deep ball, and Minnesota gave them a tough game just three weeks ago. With Jared Allen coming after Aaron Rodgers, the Vikings can offer up a challenge.

Still, Rodgers and the Pack attack have been unstoppable, sending out more quality receivers than an all-star team

Denver (3-5) at Kansas City (4-4) Shockingly, a Broncos win could put them right in the mix for the AFC West crown, and they are 2-1 with Tim Tebow at the helm — even if he has been mediocre, at best, for most of those games. Willis McGahee has re-emerged as a factor in the running game.

Everything was on course in Kansas City until the Chiefs laid an egg against Miami, handing the Dolphins their first win in a rout. Expect a far better effort this week from the co-leaders of the division.

Houston (6-3) at Tampa Bay (4-4) Houston is cruising in the NFC South, so a non-conference loss here might not be all that damaging. But the Texans, closing in on their first playoff berth, should get back their best offensive player, WR Andre Johnson. Without him, the Texans have been dynamic on the ground thanks to Arian Foster and Ben Tate. With him: watch out, Bucs.

Tampa’s season quickly has eroded and the Bucs’ hopes for improving on their 106 record of 2010 depends on getting hot now. Their spotty defense has held them back, as has the up-and-down performances of QB Josh Freeman.

Jacksonville (2-6) at Indianapolis (0-9) Perhaps the Colts’ best chance to avoid an 0-for-’11 comes against the Jaguars, who had a bye last week and are no pushover, despite their record, or against Carolina in the game following Indy’s bye.

Normally by mid-November, the Colts are in the mix for home-field advantage in the playoffs.

Of course, they normally have Peyton Manning.

Jacksonville is the only team to have scored fewer than 100 points. But the Jags get after teams on defense and it doesn’t take a whole lot of that to beat the Colts these days.

Arizona (2-6) at Philadelphia (3-5) So the Eagles are back on the rise, ready to make a run for the postseason. That’s what a whole lot of folks thought until

Monday night’s home loss against Chicago.

Philly is missing the decisive touch. All season, it has failed to put away opponents in the fourth quarter, whether it be with dropped passes, missed blocks or penalties on offense, or sloppy work on defense.

The Cardinals found one unique way to win, breaking a five-game slide when Patrick Peterson returned a punt 99 yards in overtime against St. Louis. Peterson broke every rule in the special teams book with that one. Don’t think anybody in the Valley of the Sun is complaining.

Tennessee (4-4) at Carolina (2-6) Both teams are in rebuilding mode with new coaches and, despite neither being a winner right now, both have decent resumes.

The T itans were 3-1 and have gone downhill the last month, but if they can ever get RB Chris Johnson on track, they could challenge for a winning record.

Carolina, coming off a bye, has one of the NFL’s most exciting pass-catch duos in rookie QB Cam Newton and veteran wideout Steve Smith, a prime contender for comeback player awards. Smith against Tennessee’s cornerbacks could be a highlight in this match.

Washington (3-5) at Miami (1-7) Four consecutive defeats and a slew of injuries have the Redskins plummeting toward the bottom of the NFC. They’ve thrown 13 interceptions and have 19 giveaways, both the most in the NFC. Miami came close in recent weeks before breaking through for win No. 1 at Kansas City — in blowout fashion, too. A second victory in a row hardly would be a surprise, particularly if WR Brandon Marshall and RB Reggie Bush can repeat their KC heroics.

St. Louis (1-7) at Cleveland (3-5) Both rosters have been ravaged by injuries, with Cleveland’s backfield hit particularly hard. That is not the case with St. Louis with Steve Jackson now healthy and productive.

All of which means the Rams could give Jackson 40 touches against the NFL’s 30th-ranked rushing defense.

Jane Boone Ellis

HOUSTON — Jane Boone Ellis, 74, died Wednesday, Nov. 9, 2011, in a Houston hospital due to complications from pneumonia. She entered the hospital on Aug. 8 for a minor surgery, and never returned home.

Jane was bor n Jane Pharr Boone in Houston’s St. Joseph Hospital on July 29, 1937. Her parents J.P. and Margaret P. Boone predeceased her. Jane, along with her two sisters, Anne and Elaine, and her brother Paul, attended River Oaks Elementary, Lanier Junior High and Lamar High School in Houston. Jane graduated at Lamar with the class of 1955. She very much enjoyed her Lamar class reunions over the years, and kept in touch with several classmates, namely Cecile Wilson Lambert and Ann Suggs Ford.

Jane’s special love was music. She started voice lessons at age 12, and continued studying voice for many years. She sang in the church choir at Central Presbyterian Church for many years and later sang in the choir at St. Martin’s Episcopal Church. Jane and her husband are currently members of St. Cuthbert Episcopal Church in West Houston.

After high school, Jane attended North Texas University in Denton for one year, and then transferred to Trinity University in San Antonio, where she continued her voice studies with John Seegle and studied elementary education. She graduated from Trinity University in 1961 with a Bachelor of Science in elementary education.

While at Trinity, she met her future husband, also a student there, Irve Allen Ellis. They married in Houston on July 28, 1961, and this past July 28, they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary.

After their marriage, Jane and Irve moved to Roswell, N.M., his hometown, where they lived for about a year. Her husband then entered the Army, and the couple lived in New Britain, Conn., and in Providence, R.I., for three years.

In 1965, they moved to Houston where they have resided to the present.

Jane and Irve had no children, but they enjoyed their many nieces and nephews along with Jane’s sisters and her brother and many friends from church and Kiwanis. Her husband was a member of the Galleria Area Kiwanis Club for many years. This club had a twin club in Panama City, Panama, and the couple enjoyed visiting there for a week.

Jane was also predeceased by a nephew, Bill Crumpacker. She is survived by her husband Irve; her sisters, Anne Crumpacker, of Conroe, Leave your mark

and Elaine Craig, of New Braunfels; her brother Paul, of Austin; and many nieces, nephews and cousins.

Honorary pallbearers are Cecile Wilson Lambert and Ann Suggs Ford, both longtime friends and members of Jane’s Lamar High School graduating class of 1955; Lee Adcock Hunnell, of Houston, and Toni Kellor of Madison, Wis., both long-time friends from her days at Trinity University; Catherine Oberpriller, of Houston; Mike Bledsoe, of Joshua; Billie and Robert Garner, of Southlake, longtime friends from Jane’s college days at North Texas University; Patti and Bill Roberts, of Roswell; Deanne Clark, of Lubbock; Dianne Dumas, of Santa Fe, N.M.; Sue Farnsworth Bennett, of Great Falls, Va.; Dick Wyly, of Alberta, Canada; and Elizabeth and Jeremy Hunt, of London.

Be sure that you report suspicious activities!

Roswell Daily Record

The general public is an essential component in protecting Roswell and Chaves County from criminal activity.

That’s a major reason that the Neighborhood Watch program exists. All citizens are able to help by using their observation skills as they pursue their daily lives. Law enforcement personnel, who are well trained in the use of these skills, are able to note things and events which seem out of place, which do not fit the normal routine.

However, they cannot be everywhere all the time.

And so, the rest of us have to work harder at observation.

One of the questions frequently asked is “What is suspicious activity? What are some of the things I should watch for that could be suspicious?” That said, today’s column is intended to give you, the readers, some common examples of suspicious activity.

•Strangers loitering in your neighborhood or a vehicle cruising the streets repeatedly. Someone loitering around schools, parks and secluded areas.

•Someone peering into cars and windows.

•Lots of traffic going to and coming from a home every day and perhaps at unusual hours. Strange odors coming from a house,

it just may not look or feel right!)

•Multiple persons who appear to be working in unison and are exhibiting suspicious behaviors.

•Signs of forced entry or tampering with security or safety systems. Perhaps a series of unexplained burglar or fire alarms, prank emergency calls or similar actions. These may indicate someone testing or probing security and emergency response systems.

•Abandoned vehicles.

Certainly, these are just a few examples. There are countless other situations which would be considered suspicious activity. But in a nutshell, suspicious

activity can refer to any incident, event, individual or activity that seems unusual or out of place.

Yes, you can make a difference in the safety of all of us. If it looks wrong, or feels wrong, report it. You, the average citizens of our Roswell and Chaves County community, are valuable tools in the fight against crime!

Winter Wonderland

MARTHA D. URQUIDES-STAAB VISTAS EDITOR PHOTOS BY MARTHA D. URQUIDES-STAAB AND REY BERRONES

Only a few weeks into November and the Christmas season is in full effect, ever much so in the First American Bank, when first stepping through its doors Christmas trees and décor are seen on walls and halls as far as the eye can see. The bank is not just festive, it is lending its building to CASA for its seventh annual Winter Wonderland event.

Businesses and individuals lend a helping hand by donating trees, decorations, wreaths and other holiday décor to CASA so these items can be auctioned off at its Winter Wonderland event. With program cuts affecting many programs and organizations throughout the city, CASA has not had immunity against such cuts, events like Winter Wonderland give money right back to CASA to help children who have been abused and neglected.

“The bank is so sweet and loving, they let us come in here and invade their space,” said Carrie Leigh Cloutier, executive director of CASA. The bank lobby and halls are adorned with many festive trees of various themes.

One tree in particular is called ‘The hope for families,’ decorated by artist Marci Struzinski.

Struzinksi’s work is sold through Hallmark. She decorated a special tree with limited editions of her work in ornaments and tree skirt.

Many other trees are traditional, some unique and others tell a story. One unique tree is one that stands out and will make those who see it never forget it: The now infamous upside down ‘Persian Peacock’ tree created by Down Home ‘Falala’ by Boutique and Manzano LLC. donated by Mary Salazar.

Salazar is currently on the CASA board of directors and is the vice president.

“I had never been on a board before, but when I learned more about CASA and what they did, I knew I had to join the cause,” said Salazar. This is Salazar’s second year in donating trees to the event, and she is sure she will continue doing so in the future. Down Home decorated the tree and has been helping with Winter Wonderland since the beginning, donating numerous items to help CASA with the event through the years.

“We believe in this organization with a strong, firm Christian belief that we need to take care of our children in the community,” said Tammy Stephens, owner of Down Home Boutique.

Salazar’s company, United Drilling, has also lent its hand to the cause w i t h Salazar’s daught e r Jackie Salazar designing and creating a tree for her family’s comp a n y .

The tree is named ‘The Promise of Christmas’ and tells the story of Christ, a reminder that Christ is the reason for Christmas.

“When thinking about the theme of the tree, I would think about how much propaganda and commercialism is put into Christmas, and how people cross out Christ in Christmas, that I would tell the story of Christ and the true meaning of Christmas,” said Jackie.

The tree has several different colors of ribbon running throughout the tree that carry a meaning for each color. Purple means royalty, gold is the color of kings and white for purity. The ornaments throughout the tree include gold nails that represent the nails Christ was nailed to the cross with during his crucifixion, gold crowns, and a gold cross that sits in the middle of the tree.

“The cross was the hardest and longest process of the tree, I spray painted the Styrofoam gold and hand glued the rhinestones which took three weeks to complete. The assembly of the tree and ornaments took two days,” said Jackie.

The most special ornament on this tree is the crown of thorns that sits on the top of the tree. The crown of Ornament from ‘The hope for families’ tree by Marci thorns is from Jerusalem and is blessed.

“I didn’t know what I wanted to put on the top of the Struzinski. tree, so I started looking on-line and I found this crown from Jerusalem. When I received the crown a letter of authenticity came with it stating it came from there and that it had been blessed,” said Jackie.

Jackie stated she already has ideas for the company’s tree next year and will continue to support the cause for CASA. J&G Electric and Tinnie Mercantile are more of the many businesses who believe in helping CASA since Winter Wonderland’s inception and who are annual participants, and enjoy contributing to this festive event.

Emma the CASA dog even has her very own tree titled Emma Love. The tree is adorned with dog themed ornaments and photo of Emma under neath the tree. The CASA giving tree is also nearby.

The Roswell Fire Department’s firemen have come together and donated money out of their pockets to donate a Firefighter ‘Emma Love’ Tree themed tree.

For organizations, businesses, and individuals who donate but don’t have time to decorate, CASA has its very own tree designer.

Located on the second floor of the bank, is a room similar to Santa’s workshop, a room the bank ‘The Promise of let CASA borrow for the event.

Mendez has always liked crafts and has always been creative. She took on the role as tree decorator and has produced more than 50 trees for this event.

“I want the community to come out and meet us and learn about CASA and share the excitement with us.

There is something for everyone here,” said Cloutier.

Winter Wonderland will take place Nov. 18, at First American Bank, with a live and silent auction. Chef Mariano will be on hand making delicious munchies.

Parents can help kids learn to handle schoolyard bullies

Q: My fifth-grade daughter has always loved school, but not this year. She cries every morning, begging to stay home. A group of girls who used to be her friends have started teasing and excluding her. It breaks my heart! What can I do?

Juli: When they hear the word “bullying,” most people think of boys getting shoved in lockers or beat up on the playground. As your daughter is unfortunately learning, girls can be just as vicious. In handling a bully situation, you have to find the right balance of protecting, equipping and counteracting.

In your daughter’s case, protecting means setting up a conference with her teacher to make sure he or she is aware of the situation. It might also mean contacting one or more of the other girls’ parents to discuss what is happening.

In extreme situations, protecting your daughter could potentially include remov-

ing her from the environment.

Unfortunately, what your daughter is facing is pretty normal in groups of adolescent girls. Even if she were in a different class or different school, she’d be likely to encounter at least some teasing and rejection. You want to use the opportunity to teach her assertiveness and coping skills. You may even role-play with her what to say and do when someone teases or rejects her. Watching and discussing a movie together, like “You Again” or “Back to the Future,” can be a nonthreatening way to talk through how she feels and to address coping with bullies.

Finally, be intentional to counteract the effect the bullying is having on her.

Help her find friends or a social group where she is accepted and affirmed. The early adolescent years are traumatic for most kids.

Your unconditional love

on social networking sites, and it’s critical that parents remain in the loop.

and encouragement will be key to getting your daughter through.

Q: My teenage son recently got a friend request on Facebook from a woman who was completely naked in her profile picture. He swears he doesn’t know this person, and I believe him. To me, it looks more like an X-rated ad disguised as a “friend request.” Can you shed any light on this?

It’s likely your son’s “friend request” was indeed an ad for online porn, but there’s another sinister possibility. One recent study suggests that prostitutes are now promoting their services by setting up Facebook accounts. A professor at Columbia University interviewed nearly 300 New York City prostitutes and made this startling discovery. With the tighter restrictions on adult ads on Craigslist, many prostitutes were moving their operations over to Facebook. In fact, 83 percent of the pros-

Roswell Daily Record

titutes interviewed said they had a Facebook page.

The professor estimated that Facebook would be the leading online recruitment space for prostitutes by the end of 2011.

In fairness, Facebook has restrictions in place that prohibit por nographic material and other obscene content. However, there’s no way to prevent a prostitute from opening an account, or to prevent someone -- anyone -- from posting explicit photos. Ideally, Facebook will take action on that content once it is brought to light, but by that point, numerous users, including your son, may have already been exposed to it.

I’m not suggesting that we make our kids delete their social networking accounts. But we do need to make sure we’re aware of how they’re using them, and that they have the necessary security and privacy settings in place. We’d

never let them go wandering alone in the red light district. Unfortunately, the red light district is creeping into their online world.

Toy Hall of Famers: Dollhouse, Hot Wheels, blanket, etc.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. (AP) — Is Linus jumping for joy?

The blanket, an all-purpose plaything as well as a comfort for generations of thumb-suckers like Charlie Brown’s best friend in the “Peanuts” comic strip, landed Thursday in the National Toy Hall of Fame along with Hot Wheels and the dollhouse.

The trio take their places at The Strong, a children’s and cultural history museum in upstate New York, alongside 46 classics ranging from the bicycle, kite and teddy bear to Barbie, Jack-in-the-Box and Mr. Potato Head.

Curators said the blanket was a special addition in the spirit of two earlier inductees, the cardboard box and the stick. They praised its ability to serve either as recreational raw material or an accessory transfor med in myriad ways by a child’s daydreams.

“Every now and again we like to shake things up, remind folks there’s play experiences that happen purely creatively ... rather than coming with rules, a path, a backstory you feel constrained into,” said Christopher Bensch, the Rochester museum’s chief curator.

“Blankets have been keeping people warm for centuries, but they’ve also been heating up kids’ imaginations,” serving as magic carpets and superhero capes, a peek-a-boo veil, a chair -draped fortress or “an island of safety surrounded by sea monsters.”

For Linus, the comfort imparted by his precious blue blanket blends with its “play function” as a lasso, a whip, a Snoopy towrope and, in later adventures, “when he talks about turning his blanket into a sports coat when he grows up,” Bensch said.

Longevity is a key criterion for getting into the 13-

year -old hall, which was acquired in 2002 from A.C. Gilbert’s Discovery Village in Salem, Ore. Each toy must be widely recognized, foster learning, creativity or discovery through play, and endure in popularity over generations.

T rying to create a toy that would be as big a success with boys as Barbie was with girls, Elliot Handler hit upon an idea for miniature die-cast vehicles with sleek designs. Hot Wheels were introduced in 1968 and the brand became a big hit.

Handler, who died in July at age 95, grew Mattel Inc. into the nation’s largest toy maker along with his wife, Ruth, who created the Barbie doll in 1959.

The dollhouse evolved from 16th-century “baby houses,” wooden cabinets in which wealthy European women displayed their collections of miniature furnishings.

German toy makers produced variations for youngsters to furnish with tiny chairs, tables, beds, tapestries and floor coverings and, by the 19th century, mass-production methods enabled dollhouses to grow in popularity.

“The dollhouse has gone on to hold a special place in the hearts of children everywhere,” said Patricia Hogan, the museum’s curator of toys and dolls. “From the most elaborately crafted mansions to the simplest home-made structures, the dollhouse gives kids an ideal environment for creative play, from furnishing and refurnishing rooms, making up stories and collaborating with friends and siblings.”

More than a few heavyweight nominees fell short in 2011, including the puppet, the pogo stick and Rubik’s Cube.

Storm could lead to higher electric rates in Conn.

Roswell Daily Record

HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A rare October snow storm that caused record-breaking power outages could lead to increased electricity costs in Connecticut, where residents who endured days in the dark and cold already pay higher rates than any other state in the continental United States.

The price tag is expected to run to $100 million or more for the 12-day campaign that involved crews from as far as Colorado and Michigan in restoring power to more than 850,000 customers.

In a recent financial filing, the parent company of Connecticut’s main electric utility said it expects to recover costs for the Oct. 29 snow storm by going through regulators. With multiple investigations probing the utility’s storm response, however, the state’s energy commissioner and a key state lawmaker told The Associated Press that claims of mismanagement and subpar performance — if proven true — could block the company from passing costs on to ratepayers.

“We don’t know if it’s going to be borne by ratepayers. I think it’s very premature to make that statement,” said Connecticut state Rep. Vicki Nardello of Prospect, cochairwoman of the legislature’s energy committee. She said Connecticut Light & Power has insurance against storms and a reserve account, and state energy regulators can prevent the utility from passing storm-related expenses on to customers if they are deemed to be “imprudent.”

The rare, pre-Halloween nor’easter dumped up to 2 feet of wet, heavy snow that snapped tree limbs and power lines, breaking a state record for the number of customers left in the dark by a single storm that had been set only two months earlier when the remnants of Hurricane Irene slammed the Connecticut shoreline. A week after the storm hit, 176,000 customers were still without power. Electricity was restored to virtually all customers by Thursday.

Sunday, November 13, 2011

In this Nov. 4 file photo, a worker removes trees around downed lines in Simsbury, Conn., after an Oct. 31 snowstorm. The cost to restore service after the record-breaking power outages could lead to increased electricity rates in Connecticut for residents who already pay higher rates than any other state in the continental United States.

Connecticut Light & Power has described it as the region’s worst October snow storm in centuries.

Northeast Utilities, the Hartford-based parent company of CL&P, said in its filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission that it expects the storm costs will meet the criteria for reimbursement. A CL&P spokeswoman, Katie Blint, said the utility will make its case to the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority and it will be up to that agency to decide whether ratepayers will bear some of the burden.

An NU spokesman, Al Lara, said it will take weeks or months to determine the total cost of the restoration effort. He said he expected the regulatory review would not be influenced by the investigations targeting

the outages.

“I would expect the process to be independent,” he said.

Although it may make for good politics to side with customers after such a storm, utilities are able to recover most of their costs from ratepayers in the vast majority of cases, according to Neil Kalton, a senior equity analyst for Wells Fargo Securities in St Louis.

“I think at the end of the day pragmatism tends to prevail and there is a realization that when you have a massive storm like this at a bad time of year when the leaves are still on the trees, it’s really out of the control of the company,” Kalton said.

Only Hawaii has higher electric rates than Connecticut, a happenstance blamed

on the state’s high cost of living, the lack of coal-fired power plants and a fee that a former governor and state lawmakers imposed on electric utilities to pay off borrowing that helped balance the state budget. The average homeowner’s electric bill in Connecticut is about $143 a month, compared to the national average of about $104 a month, according to the latest data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Any request for a rate increase would go before the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority, which meets at least once every four years to set new rates and last did so in 2010. The utility could ask for a rate hike in the interim to cover storm-related costs.

Daniel Esty, who oversees PURA as commissioner of the state Department of Energy and Environmental Protection, said there are several concerns involving CL&P staffing levels, how quickly crews responded after the storm and whether enough crews were on standby.

“The expense of responding here is going to run in the hundreds of millions of dollars. But I think there’s a significant question of whether some of that should be disallowed,” he said.

The storm response is the subject of several investigations at the state and federal level, including a review by the Washington, D.C.-based disaster response consulting firm Witt Associates. In announcing that probe into CL&P’s response last week, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said: “I presume we’re going to find some level of malfeasance.”

Elin Swanson Katz, the state’s consumer counsel, said the findings of the various investigations will affect the utility’s ability to recover storm-related costs. Katz, whose office advocates for electric ratepayers, said she was concerned in particular by stories of crews that were paid to sit in parking lots for hours while they waited for instructions from CL&P.

Artesia General Hospital staff honored Oil price flirts with $100 per barrel Kenneth Randall, CEO of Artesia General Hospital, has announced that two nurses who work at Artesia General Hospital recently received New Mexico State Awards at the 2011 Nursing Excellence Awards ceremony.

These prestigious awards recognize excellence in nursing practice and honor nurses for the contributions that they make to their organizations, communities and the state. Elizabeth Estrada, RN, BSN, and Ronda Clayton Tasker, RN, BSN, were chosen from across the state and from the 165 nurses nominated. Both of these dynamic, dedicated women are examples of nursing and leadership at its best. Randall proudly shares that these respected caregivers and educators are recognized as outstanding role models for the many other caregivers at AGH that are continuing to advance innovative nursing practices close to home.

Elizabeth Estrada, “Liz,” director of Emergency Services, received the Excellence in Emergency Care Award and Ronda Tasker Clayton, director of pharmacy, received the Excellence in Rural Practice Award.

Estrada has approximately 30 years of experience in health care. Tammie Chavez, acting nurse director at Artesia General Hospital, explained, “She has dedicated her professional expertise and service to each family and individual in our community.”

Among Estrada’s accomplishments are researching, designing and implementing initiatives to decrease the percentage of hospital patients leaving without treatment despite the fact emergency room visits have increased. She has significantly decreased the “wait time” in the emergency room exceeding national standards and developed an emergency response system with the hospital working with county, state and federal emergency response organizations.

Estrada is also helping lead Artesia General’s conversion to electronic medical records, is a mentor to staff reporting to her and has developed a teaching program to ensure staff members are up-to-date with certifications.

“She instills a culture of patient safety, practice standards and collaboration between departments and medical staff to reflect increasing core measure scores, reduced patient complaints and compliance with regulatory agencies,” Chavez explained.

Chavez goes on to share that Liz is not one to rest on the laurels of her 24/7 job for she carries her unwavering service commitment into the community. She holds seven certifications, not including her degrees, for which she is an instructor in four of them. She has either initiated, built or participated in trauma programs, chest pain centers and emergency/disaster preparedness programs for not only

the facilities within this county but also for the county just north of this one. She is past chair, presently vice-chair of SE Regional Trauma Advisory Committee, a member of the Community Education Accreditation Committee, a member of New Mexico Trauma Advisory and System Stakeholder Committee, a member of New Mexico’s Stroke Advisory Committee and a member of D-Mat Team. She also sits on the board for the Boys & Girls Club, organizes the annual injury prevention fair, is an educator for the Lion’s Club on organ donation and in her spare time she teaches community CPR. Tasker Clayton has been with Artesia General Hospital since 1993.

Although not a pharmacist, she is recognized for her clinical expertise in pharmacy, functioning as a resource for nurses in the hospital and other medical staff. Chavez shares, “she excels in developing new strategies by moving the department’s skill base and technology forward. We have an outpatient pharmacist who visits daily to review the pharmacy orders; however, the pharmacy is within her hands.”

Chavez praised Ronda for also assisting nursing staff with patients in the Intensive Care Unit or on the Medial-Surgical Units and following up on patients long after they are discharged from the hospital. Clayton developed a program to assess each patient’s medications, lab-

oratory and microbiology test values to make sure tests were conducted appropriately and efficiently, helped develop and distribute patient and family medication education for in-patients and those being discharged and has reduced the cost of inventory by building systems to monitor medication expiration and turnover controls.

Clayton was also lauded for being very customerfocused whether she is dealing with patients, physicians or staff members; showing genuine interest in staff progress and respecting the opinions and abilities of others as well as their ability to contribute. In addition, she developed an IV Compatibility & Drip manual which has significantly reduced medication errors and shortened time required to administer IV medications.

“She is a ‘jack of all trades’ who has continuously refined her nursing expertise to include independent and self-directed practice ... I believe her characteristics represent all that is good in our profession,” Chavez said.

Clayton serves on the Pharmacy & Therapeutics, Emergency Operations Center, Patient Safety/Quality Management and Infection Control committees at Artesia General Hospital and holds numerous certifications and is also an active sports program promoter in the Artesia schools.

NEW YORK (AP) — The price of oil is flirting with $100 per barrel for the first time since the summer, as fears fade that Europe’s debt crisis will spread and trigger another recession.

On Friday benchmark crude rose $1.21 to end the day at $98.99 per barrel in New York. Prices climbed as high as $99.20 earlier in the day. Brent crude, which is used to price many foreign oil varieties, increased 45 cents to finish at $114.16 in London.

Higher oil prices will lead to more expensive gasoline, since gas is refined from crude. The national average of $3.44 per gallon is already the highest ever for this time of year, and analysts say pump prices are likely to hit $4 a gallon by spring.

Oil prices have climbed from about $77 a barrel at the beginning of October as two of the market’s biggest fears — an unraveling of the 17-nation eurozone and another recession in the U.S. — gradually eased. That has reassured investors that demand for oil will likely stay strong.

Greece and Italy now have new political leadership to help them deal with their massive debts. Greece appointed former European Central Bank Vice President Lucas Papademos as its new prime minister, and an interim cabinet was sworn in Friday. And Italy approved crucial economic reforms that were demanded by the European Union. Italy will also get a new prime minister.

Stock markets rose Friday as well, with the major indexes up about 2 percent.

A rise in oil prices to $100 per barrel is a key milestone, indicating that the economy can afford to pay those prices.

“It’s a sign of confidence that we’re not going to flip back into recession,” PFGBest analyst Phil Flynn said. “It’s also sending a message that we better conserve supplies or find new sources of oil.”

Oil, gasoline and diesel supplies have been falling this year, and continued declines could push oil prices higher. The government said this week that crude supplies are 7.3 percent below their five-year average, while gasoline supplies are 2.9 percent lower and diesel supplies are down 7.5 percent.

New Mexico Rancher to serve on American Lamb Board

Antonio Manzanares, Tierra Amarilla, was appointed to the 2012 Lamb Promotion, Research and Information Board by U.S. Secretary of Agriculture Tom Vilsack on Nov. 4. Manzanares will serve a three-year term, which began with his appointment.

“As a sheep producer who has successfully developed a niche market for his lamb product, Antonio understands not only what it takes to raise a lamb, but also what works when it comes to the consumer,” said Marc Kincaid, New Mexico Wool Growers, Inc. president. “He will be a great asset to the American Lamb Board.”

Established under the Commodity Promotion, Research, and Information Act of 1996 and the Lamb Promotion, Research, and Information Order, the board is financed by a mandatory assessment of one-half cent per pound on ovine animals of any age, including ewes and rams, sold by producers, seedstock producers, feeders and exporters.

Also, an assessment of 30 cents per head must be paid by first-handlers. Assessments began on July 1, 2002.

“The promotion, marketing and research funded by the Lamb Checkoff are vital to the survival of our industry,” Kincaid said. “We appreciate Secretary Vilsack’s attention to selecting members of the American Lamb Board, who administer those funds.”

One-third of the board, made up of six sheep producers, three feeders, one seed stock producer, three first-handlers and one member of the general public are appointed each year. Newly appointed board members include: Joanne Nissen, Soledad, Calif., representing producers; Ben R. Lehfeldt, Lavina, Mont., representing feeders; and Wesley R. Patton, Orland, Calif., representing seed stock producers.

Reappointed to the board are: Leo J. Tammi, Mount Sidney, Va., representing producers; and Cody J. Hiemke, Stoughton, Wis., representing first handlers.

I don’t know this family very well. They’re new to the neighborhood. But I was flabbergasted that they would act this way. When I asked about the birthdays of the other family members, I was told that since none of them fall on a “bad day” they are celebrated with parties, gifts and everything.

Megan was allowed to accept my gift and thanked me, but her mom made it clear this was to be an exception to the rule. Abby, what gives?

But I have recently started COOKING and was going through old cookbooks. I found two old Heloise books, “Kitchen Hints” and “All Around the House,” from the ‘60s! (Heloise here: These were my mother’s books.) I received these 13 years ago from my mother -in-law when she moved from Austin, Texas, to Denver and was downsizing everything.

It has been such a delight to read these books for the first time. I really appreciate everything our mothers and grandmothers did with no-stick cooking spray, zipper -lock bags and all the rest! I can’t wait to devour your website as well.

I have been sharing the fun tips and stories with my mother and my friends.

Gaming: ‘Skyrim’ reviewed, ‘Call’ sets sales mark

I’ve explored the highest mountains and the deepest dungeons.

I’ve killed hundreds of wolves, bandits and zombies, and been mauled by bears, trolls and giants. I’ve helped out lovelorn suitors, ghosts and a talking dog, and foiled the nefarious plots of vampires, evil mages and demon gods.

Oh, and I’ve slain a few dragons.

I’ve played more than 60 hours of “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim” (Bethesda Softworks, for the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, PC, $59.99), and after all that time I still feel like I’m just scratching the surface. I still have dozens of places to visit and quests to conquer, and if I didn’t have other obligations I could happily spend the rest of the year wandering around this massive fantasy world.

“Skyrim” has taken over my life. But, hey, it’s a good life.

It doesn’t look promising at first. You are a mysterious prisoner being led to your death. As you rest your head under the executioner’s blade, though, a dragon arrives and starts belching fire — giving you a chance to escape.

The return of the flying lizards, long missing from the “Elder Scrolls” world of Tamriel, is the central mystery in “Skyrim.” And your character — the mythical Dragonborn, who can absorb the powers of a dying dragon — is the key to its solution.

You have plenty of options in creating your character: male or female, scrawny or brawny, human or elfin, catlike or reptilian. Unlike most role-playing games, however, you aren’t forced

trust the talking dog. Four stars out of four.

Latest ‘Call of Duty’ game breaks sales record

In this video game image released by Bethesda Softworks, a Dragonborn hero battles one of the flying lizards in “The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.” to choose one career. You can use magic, both healing and destructive, and still wield a wicked blade. (You can even use both at once, shooting fireballs with one hand while swinging your sword with the other.) Your skills improve the more you use them — so if, say, you prefer picking off enemies at a distance, you get better with a bow and arrow.

As you explore Skyrim, you’ll meet various groups that would love to have the Dragonborn on their team. You can enroll in the College of Mages and get on the spell-casting fast track. You can join the Imperial Ar my or the rebellious Stormcloaks. You can

train to become a bard, a thief or an assassin. Starting on any of these career paths opens up hours of adventures, and you’re allowed to dabble in some of each.

“Skyrim” is so open-ended that your most difficult task is often deciding what to do next. There are hundreds of quests, ranging from simple delivery jobs to exhausting dungeon forays. Amid the more conventional action sequences are some clever changes of pace: There are murder mysteries, ghost stories and tales of political intrigue, and at one point I found myself trapped in the mind of a mad prince.

The world of “Skyrim” is vividly realized, from its humblest villages to its grandest castles. Even in its most isolated reaches, you’ll notice tiny details and find unexpected rewards. More than any other virtual world before it, Skyrim feels lived-in.

And once you’ve moved in, you won’t want to leave. “Skyrim” is one of the most ambitious video games ever developed, and it lives up to its ambitions in every way. I could easily write a review 10 times this length describing all its wonderful surprises, but every gamer deserves the opportunity to forge his or her own path in this remarkable world. Just don’t

NEW YORK (AP) — By the third time around, it really shouldn’t be a surprise. The latest “Call of Duty” video game set a first-day sales record this week, generating $400 million in sales in its first 24 hours in stores. That breaks the record its predecessor set this time last year.

“Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3” is the third game in the military shooter series to set such a record. Last year, “Call of Duty: Black Ops” raked in $360 million in its first 24 hours on sale. “Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 2,” sold 4.7 million copies in its first 24 hours to reap $310 million The latest installment of the game from Activision Blizzard Inc. went on sale at midnight Tuesday in North America and the U.K. Activision said Friday the game sold 6.4 million units in its first 24 hours.

A rival shooter game from Electronic Arts Inc., “Battlefield 3,” meanwhile, sold 5 million units in its first week in stores last month, making it the fastest-selling game in EA’s history.

The figures show there’s a big appetite for big shooter games this holiday season, boding well for their publishers and retailers such as GameStop Corp.

Shares of Activision Blizzard slipped 16 cents to $12.82 in morning trading Friday.

In new testimony, James Murdoch blames underlings

LONDON (AP) — He didn’t see. He wasn’t told. He didn’t know.

Called back to Britain’s Parliament after former News Corp. employees challenged his credibility, senior executive James Murdoch insisted he’d been kept in the dark about widespread phone hacking at his nowdefunct News of the World tabloid, blaming two of his senior lieutenants for failing to warn him of the paper’s culture of criminality.

“None of these things were mentioned to me,” he told an often-skeptical House of Commons’ media committee.

Over more than two-anda-half hours of questioning, Murdoch stuck to that line.

“It was not shown to me,” he said of an explosive email which implicated one of his top reporters in phone hacking.

“It didn’t occur to me to probe further,” he said when quizzed about the legal advice his subordinates had supplied him.

“It didn’t seem necessary for me to ask for a copy,” he said of a seven-page document warning of overwhelming evidence of illegal behavior at his company.

Speaking quickly and confidently, Murdoch laid the blame at the door of former News of the World Editor Colin Myler and former in-house lawyer Tom Crone, both of whom resigned soon after the scandal broke earlier this year. Over the past few months, the pair have challenged the credibility of

their former boss, accusing the 38-year-old News Corp. executive of not telling the truth when he claimed they never told him about the incriminating email back in 2008.

Murdoch made one important concession to their version of events — acknowledging that he’d been briefed on the incriminating email back in 2008 — but insisted that its importance was kept from him.

“What never happened is Mr. Crone and Mr. Myler showing me the relevant evidence, explaining to me the relevant evidence — and its relevance — or talking about wider spread criminality,” Murdoch said.

“That simply did not happen.”

In a statement, Crone attacked Murdoch’s testimony, insisting that he hadn’t misled lawmakers.

“At best, his evidence on the matter was disingenuous,” he said of Murdoch’s comments. He did not immediately return calls seeking further comment.

Myler’s telephone number is unlisted, and a letter sent to him more than a month ago has gone unanswered.

Murdoch did find support for his story after his testimony finished. Neville Thurlbeck, a former chief reporter at the paper who was arrested on suspicion of phone hacking and later released, told Channel 4 News that he had compiled a dossier of evidence, including audio recordings,

that would exonerate himself and support Murdoch’s version of events.

“It will back up his claim that he has been seriously misled by senior executives on the News of the World,” Thurlbeck said.

Murdoch’s solo performance was far less dramatic than the July 19 hearing at which his 80-year -old father Rupert Murdoch repeatedly banged the table to back his points.

Although the navy-suited James Murdoch showed flashes of annoyance — occasionally starting his answers with “as I testified earlier” or “as I answered earlier” — he kept his cool, even when Labour lawmaker Tom Watson described him as a bumbling crime lord.

“You must be the first mafia boss in history who doesn’t know he’s at the head of a criminal enterprise,” Watson said in what sounded like a carefully crafted sound bite.

Murdoch, stony-faced, dismissed the comment as inappropriate.

He struck an apologetic tone when questions steered him toward his company’s failure to get to grips with the scandal. He said executives at the company had given assurances, and that the company “relied on those assurances for too long.”

“I’m sorry for that,” he said.

He also apologized for the use of a private investigator to tail the lawyers of phone

hacking victims, calling the practice “appalling.”

James Murdoch runs News Corp.’s European and Asian holdings and remains tipped to succeed his father at the helm of the global media conglomerate. Thursday’s appearance was mandated by lawmakers investigating the industrial-scale espionage at the News of the World, the exposure of which has already forced the paper’s closure and scuttled a multibillion pound (dollar) bid for full control of satellite broadcaster BSkyB. More than a dozen journalists at News International, News Corp.’s British newspaper subsidiary, have been arrested, and several executives, including The Wall Street Journal’s publisher, Les Hinton, have resigned.

Although the media committee’s investigation isn’t as serious as the ongoing police investigation — its recommendations are nonbinding — Murdoch still needed to put on a strong show. Investors have become increasingly restive as the scandal continues to spread, and analysts say Murdoch’s position as heir apparent to his father’s company is under threat.

Paul Connew, a media consultant and former tabloid editor, said he believed Murdoch had given a mixed performance.

“Polished to a certain extent, but again suffering from the amnesia factor,” he said.

The media committee wouldn’t be calling Myler or Crone back for more testimony, Chairman John Whittingdale told reporters after the hearing. He said the committee’s lawmakers had already heard from the pair and would now be weighing whose version of events to believe.

“It is plain that the two accounts we’ve heard, one of them cannot be true,” he said.

Connew warned that even if Murdoch’s reputation isn’t damaged by the report, he would not be home free. A judge-led inquiry into Britain’s media could call him back to the U.K. for more questioning.

And detectives could dredge up more damaging revela-

tions.

Lawmakers suggested as much Thursday, with one asking whether Murdoch was aware of any phone hacking at The Sun, the News of the World’s sister paper and currently Britain’s biggest selling daily.

Murdoch refused to say, citing an ongoing investigation.

Asked whether he would close The Sun if evidence of phone hacking emerged there, he declined comment.

Separately, Scotland Yard chief Bernard Hogan-Howe announced Thursday that police were working their way through some 300 million emails from News International.

Giffords will make first TV appearance Monday

PHOENIX (AP) — Rep. Gabrielle Giffords is able to speak with a clear voice in her first TV interview since she was shot 10 months ago.

The 41-year-old congresswoman was seated with her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, as she spoke with ABC’s Diane Sawyer for an interview that will air Monday. A preview was broadcast Thursday on “World News.”

Giffords was wearing a yellow top with gold buttons and dark eyeglasses. Her brown hair has grown out since it was shaved after the shooting.

When Sawyer asked how she felt, Giffords said, “Pretty good.” She also said her recovery was “difficult.”

Giffords is recovering from a brain injury she suffered Jan. 8 when a gunman opened fire outside a Tucson, Ariz., supermarket. Six people were killed and 13 were wounded, including Giffords.

Teachers, facing low salaries, opt to moonlight

MIAMI (AP) — By day, Wade Brosz teaches American history at an A-rated Florida middle school. By night, he is a personal trainer at 24 Hour Fitness.

Brosz took the three-night a week job at the gym after his teaching salary was frozen, summer school was reduced drastically, and the state bonus for board certified teachers was cut. He figures that he and his wife, also a teacher, are making about $20,000 less teaching than expected to, combined.

“The second job was to get back what was lost through cuts,” said Brosz, a nationally board certified teacher. “It was tougher and tougher to make ends meet. I started personal training because it’s flexible hours.”

Second jobs are not a new phenomenon for teachers, who have historically been paid less than other professionals. In 1981, about 11 percent of teachers were moonlighting; the number has risen to about one in five today. They are bartenders, waitresses, tutors, school bus drivers and even lawnmowers.

Now, with the severe cuts many school districts have made, teachers like Brosz, who hadn’t considered juggling a second job before, are searching the want ads. The number of public school teachers who reported holding a second job outside school increased slightly from 2003-04 to 2007-08.

While there is no national data for more recent years, reports from individual states and districts indicate the number may have climbed further since the start of the recession.

In Texas, for example, the percentage of teachers who moonlight has increased from 22 percent in 1980 to 41 percent in 2010.

“It’s the economy, primarily,” said Sam Sullivan, a professor at Sam Houston State University, which conducts the survey.

In this Oct. 26 photo, Michelle Hartman, an elementary school language arts and science teacher, cleans a mirror at an accounting firm in Oakland Park, Fla. The single mother has a master’s degree in educational leadership and has been a teacher 15 years. But she says she cannot afford to leave any of her additional jobs.

the Texas State Teachers Association, said cuts in education have forced many teachers to take furlough days. It’s an extra strain because, unlike in the past, many teachers are now the primary breadwinner, either because they are a single parent or their spouse is unemployed, Haecker said.

“It affects their morale in the classroom,” she said.

“The last thing we want is our teachers worried about how they are going to pay their bills.”

The average salary for a public school teacher nationwide in the 2009-10 school year was $55,350, a figure that has remained relatively flat, after being adjusted for inflation, over the last two decades. Starting teacher salaries can be significantly

lower; compared to college graduates in other professions, they earn more than $10,000 less when beginning their careers.

“I think people have felt the need to supplement their teaching salaries in order to have a middle class lifestyle,” said Lawrence Mishel, president of the Economic Policy Institute, which published a study this year concluding the average weekly pay of teachers in 2010 was about 12 percent below that of workers with similar education and experience.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, which collects data on student performance across the globe, advised the United States earlier this year to work at elevating the teaching profession in order

The International Union for the Conservation of Nature said Thursday that the Western Black Rhino of Africa, a species related to these black rhinos, is officially extinct.

Poaching blamed for loss of rhino

GENEVA (AP) — Conservationists blame lax antipoaching efforts for the loss of the last wild specimens of West Africa’s Black Rhino.

Craig Hilton-Taylor of the Inter national Union for Conservation of Nature says enforcement was weak and even poachers who were caught weren’t sentenced, meaning there was no deterrent.

The Wester n Black Rhino, like other rhinoceros species, is sought for its horns that are used as trophies or for traditional medicine.

Roswell Daily Record

Hilton-Taylor said Friday that the last confir med sightings of Western Black Rhino was of 10 animals in Cameroon in 2000.

A survey in 2006 found no trace of them and the subspecies was declared officially extinct by Switzerland-based IUCN this week.

to improve student performance. The recommendations included measures like raising the bar for who is selected to become a teacher, providing better training and better pay. In many nations where students outperform the U.S. in reading, math and science, including Japan and South Korea, teachers earn more than they do in the United States.

“International comparisons show that in the countries with the highest performance, teachers are typically paid better relative to others, education credentials are valued more, and a higher share of educational spending is devoted to instructional services than is the case in the United States,” the OECD report concluded.

While moonlighting isn’t unique to teachers, they do tend to have second or third jobs at a higher rate than other professionals. One researcher estimates their moonlighting rates may be four times higher than those of other full-time, college educated salaried workers.

Eleanor Blair Hilty, an education professor at Western Carolina University, said most teachers make around $5,000 through outside work. Yet when asked if they would quit if given a raise in the equivalent amount, most said no. Her conclusion: teachers are getting something more from their second job other than an extra paycheck.

“A lot of it has to do with what I think is wrong with the teaching profession,”

Hilty said, noting that teachers have little autonomy and control over what and how they teach. “They found their moonlighting jobs to be satisfying.”

Policies on moonlighting vary by district; some have no written guidelines, while others merely advise teachers to ensure any outside work doesn’t interfere with their duties at school.

In North Carolina, a survey conducted in 2007 found 72 percent of teachers moonlight, whether it’s an after-school job or summer employment.

“There’s a culture of silence,” Hilty said. “Everybody knows that moonlighting goes on and they know it’s part of what teachers do but nobody likes to talk about it very much.”

Michelle Hartman, a language arts and science teacher at a Plantation, Fla., elementary school, is balancing two other jobs, one as an organist with the local Presbyterian church, playing at church services, weddings and funerals, and another doing janitorial work twice a week at her father’s accounting firm.

The single mother has a master’s degree in educational leadership and has been a teacher 15 years. But she says she cannot afford to leave any of her extra jobs, which she said brings in about $6,000 year, in addition to her $46,000 teaching salary.

“I’m tired some days,” Hartman said. “But no matter what, it doesn’t matter because I know I need to be there for the students.”

Yet working an extra job inevitably does take a toll.

On top of their work in the classroom, teachers have to grade papers and plan lessons — work they often do at home. One study on teachers who moonlight in Texas cited the case of a teacher who ended up grading papers at the restaurant where she worked.
