NMMI cadet charged with aggravated assault

BY JEFF TUCKER RECORD STAFF WRITER

A recent cadet at New Mexico Military Institute faces a jury trial in February for allegedly severely assaulting another cadet at the NMMI campus last month.

Authorities allege Chance Butler, 16, of Pampa, Texas, wore a black mask and dark clothing while assaulting a football teammate on the NMMI campus on Nov. 19.

The victim, from Alabama, reportedly spent several days in the military school’s infirmary, although the extent of his injuries stemming from the alleged assault were unknown.

Both Butler, a high school junior, and the victim, a high school sophomore, are no longer enrolled at NMMI, according to the military school’s registrar’s office, although it was unclear if Butler or the victim had been expelled.

Both cadets first enrolled

Both Butler and the victim were members of the 2014 Colts high school football team. Butler was on the junior varsity squad, while the victim started for the varsity team.

Butler is charged with aggravated assault (disguised) and battery.

Butler is scheduled to stand trial before a jury Feb. 17 in 5th Judicial District Court, Children’s

Court Division, in Roswell.

Children’s Court Judge Freddie Romero is the presiding judge in the case.

Chaves County chief deputy prosecutor Michael Murphy explained that Butler is being charged as a delinquent child.

If Butler were an adult, the aggravated assault (disguised) charge would be a fourth-degree felony and the battery charge would be a misdemeanor.

Sponsors sought for historic Poe Corn Basketball Tournament STAFF REPORT

This year’s Sunrise Optimist Poe Corn Basketball Tournament will be held Dec. 29-31. This tournament is a continuing tradition of teamwork that brings several hundred people to Roswell.

Community involvement makes it possible to bring in six teams for three days, resulting in a boost to the local economy. Local teams benefit by the opportunity to play quality teams at no cost to their schools.

There are two ways the public can help: by purchasing an ad in the tour-

nament program or being a patron tournament sponsor.

The Poe Corn Basketball Tournament is the longest running basketball tournament in the state. After sitting dor mant for a few years, the tournament was adopted by the Sunrise Optimist Club in 2000 when the club was chartered. The tournament had often skipped years in its a long history for various reasons.

Originally called the Roswell Invitational Basketball Tour nament in 1948 by its founder Poe Corn, it was renamed the Poe Corn Invitational Bas-

Officials detail cleanup changes at Los Alamos See ASSAULT, Page A3

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Federal of ficials said Wednesday that they plan to issue a temporary contract for the removal of nuclear waste at Los Alamos National Laboratory to the same contractor that failed to meet previous cleanup goals.

The of ficials said they made the decision to avoid any disruption while oversight of the cleanup work is shifted from the National Nuclear Security Administration to the Department of Energy’s Office of Environmental Management.

Earlier this year, Energy Secretary Er nest Moniz ordered the cleanup program moved from the National Nuclear Security Administration to the Energy Department division after a barrel of waste packed at Los Alamos leaked and forced the closure of the government’s underground nuclear waste repository in southern New Mexico.

On Wednesday, agency officials said they plan to award the short-term contract to lab manager Los Alamos National Security to maintain stability during the interim.

Watchdog groups quickly criticized the proposal, saying the Energy Department would essentially be rewarding the contractor for its previous failures to meet cleanup goals and for lapses that led to the leak at the Waste Isolation Pilot Plant.

Greg Mello, executive director of the Los Alamos Study Group, said it’s “just a shame that DOE puts itself into tighter boxes while continuing with the same contractor.”

“It is a recipe for failure,” Mello said.

TODAY’S FORECAST

The dental hygiene program will no longer be available at Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell come the spring semester.

The news came at the ENMU-R board meeting Tuesday evening.

The program, which will graduate six students this semester, was cut due to costs and graduation rate.

“We cannot maintain a program with those types of

costs and those types of graduation rates,” said John Madden, ENMU-R president.

The news of the program being cut has sparked a negative reaction in the dental community, Madden said.

Although there has been a negative response, the program is not worth continuing when only six people are graduating this semester, he said.

Another topic of discussion at Tuesday’s meeting

was the budget for the 2015-16 school year.

“All of higher education based this year’s budget forecast on oil being $88 a barrel,” Gamble said.

Lottery CEO’s proposal draws ASUNM ire

BY DAVID LYNCH NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO

ALBUQUERQUE — The Associated Students of UNM voiced their support of the current state of New Mexico’s lottery scholarship that many students depend on, in the wake of lottery CEO David Barden proposing a reduced amount going toward education.

Resolution 9F, which passed unanimously at ASUNM’s final meeting of the semester on Nov. 26, opposed the possible dip in percentage of lottery profits that benefit students across the state.

Sen. Gabriela Eldredge, who sponsored the legislation, called Barden’s proposal unfair. She said she opposed more money potentially going to overhead.

“It’s a few people getting a large amount of money that could be helping out a lot of people in education,” Eldredge said.

Eldredge said that the resolution does not advocate for a higher percentage going toward the scholarship, but that the amount remains consistent.

“Basically, our legislation was saying that we stand with the 30 percent — we don’t want it lowered,” Eldredge said. “The idea was to bring it to the capitol’s attention, so that they realize we are concerned about it.”

The resolution states that in the 2012-2013 school year, almost 70 percent of students in research universities throughout the state were aided by the lottery scholarship.

Barden said he commended ASUNM for being involved with the issue. However, he expressed regret

that there was confusion surrounding his motivations. Barden opined that a lower percentage would help New Mexico students in the long run.

“Students receive actual dollars for scholarships, not percentages,” Barden said. “As an example, does 30 percent of $100 million generate more scholarship money than 25 percent of $150 million? The scholarship fund could stand to gain an additional $12.5 million through more robust sales if the mandate were to be abolished.”

Barden’s plan is to increase the amount of money that goes toward prizes and further promoting the lottery. If more people play, more money would potentially go toward education.

That seems to be a big “if” for UNM’s student governing body.

“By increasing the percentage of money toward prizes and promotions, you have the opportunity to increase sales, and therefore potentially increase what goes toward education,” Sen. Alex Herring said. “It could work — more money could end up going toward education — but it also couldn’t.”

Barden said that his goal is to modify the mandates in response to current trends of the lottery in New Mexico.

“Prizes push up profits, and the 30percent mandate has stopped the lottery from offering games that players want to play, which in turn has held back sales growth and scholarship money,” Barden said.

Since the lottery’s inception in 1996 until 2007, 23.4 percent of lottery profits went to the scholarship that thousands of New Mexico stu-

dents rely on each year.

In 2007, the Legislature mandated that, based on a study that outlined the importance of the lottery to New Mexico students, at least 27 percent of profits go toward the scholarship.

That number rose to its current minimum of 30 percent in 2009.

Due to rising tuition rates in recent years, state legislators have been pressured to amend the lottery scholarship in ways that would benefit everyone. The issue will almost certainly arise again when the legislature convenes early next year. Barden said he plans to talk to lawmakers at that time.

Herring brought up the possibility that Barden would benefit from the proposed changes.

“8.4 percent of lottery profits go to those who run the lottery, Barden himself included,” Herring said. “Lowering the 30 percent that currently is allocated toward education might increase that amount, meaning Barden himself could end up with a fatter wallet.”

During discussion of the resolution at ASUNM’s meeting, Herring said that Barden’s reasoning for lowering the amount that goes toward scholarships is a gamble.

Sen. Victoria Pryor said she agreed with Herring. Attention should be placed on students currently enrolled, Pryor said.

“It’s our job to responsibly maintain this scholarship for our students.

While there is the potential, I don’t think it is responsible,” she said. “I don’t think the lottery is at a stable enough place where we can make that gamble.”

Police identify officer in fatal shooting

FARMINGTON (AP) — New Mexico State Police have identified the officer involved in a fatal shooting in San Juan County last week.

Sgt. James Rempe fatally shot 27-year-old Myles Roughsur face after he pointed his gun at police, according to a news release.

The incident on Friday began when San Juan County Sheriff’s deputies were investigating reports of a person who was threatening people around the town of Spencerville with a gun. Spencerville is northeast of Farmington.

State police assisted in the investigation. Rempe, a 12-year veteran, spotted Roughsurface and fired because he felt an immediate threat to officers.

Police say Roughsurface had a rifle and pistol on him.

An investigation is ongoing.

years is being denied showers, exercise and proper medical care, according to a new federal lawsuit.

In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque against New Mexico Department of Corrections Secretary Gregg Marcantel and other staf fers, a lawyer for Justin Hinzo says the 39year -old prisoner is trapped in a windowless cell at the Penitentiary of New Mexico in Santa Fe and is deteriorating mentally because of the conditions.

The lawsuit said those conditions and neglect left Hinzo with post-traumatic stress disorder and he “has been permanently damaged by the infliction of long-term solitary confinement.”

But corrections spokeswoman Alex Tomlin strongly denied all the charges in the lawsuit and said prison logs show Hinzo often refuses to take showers and regularly has access to medical care.

“We categorically deny these accusations,” Tomlin said. “The logs speak for themselves.”

In fact, Tomlin said Hinzo is kept in a cell with a window and regularly is given a chance to leave isolation.

The must-pass measure also calls for transferring management of a 140-square-mile national preserve in northern New Mexico to the National Park Service and for a land swap in Arizona that would clear the way for North America’s largest copper mine.

“Having an aggravated assault for disguise is a little unusual,” Murphy said.

“It’s not something that you get all that often. But I don’t know what type of mask.”

Capt. Charles Yslas of NMMI’s police department wrote the official incident report in connection to the Nov. 19 incident.

Contacted Wednesday, Yslas declined to comment on the incident.

“I really can’t comment on it right now,” Yslas said.

Yslas is listed in court records as a witness for the prosecution, as is the victim.

The Daily Record on Wednesday officially requested a copy of the police report, pursuant to the state’s Inspection of Records Act. NMMI sports information director Geoff Gunn said Wednesday he was unaware of the altercation between Butler and the victim.

Los Alamos National Security “has been making excessive profits, given its poor per for mance, from both its weapons and cleanup activities,” Hancock said. “Any additional funding should be based only on excellent performance.”

more than two years, but that depends on how quickly the agency can prepare contracts for longterm cleanup requirements at the northern New Mexico lab.

The top-secret Manhattan Project to build the atomic bomb was headquartered at Los Alamos, and decades of research and development resulted in a legacy of radioactive and hazardous waste.

Under one of the most pressing deadlines imposed by the state, Los Alamos was ordered to remove thousands of barrels of toxic waste from outdoor storage before wildfire season peaked. The lab missed that deadline because shipments were halted following the leak at the West Isolation Pilot Plant.

Mark Whitney, acting assistant secretary for Department of Energy’s Of fice of Environmental Management, said the scope of the cleanup will not change under the short-ter m contract. He said the goal is to shift responsibility and accountability for the cleanup away from the contractor so it can focus on the lab’s national security missions.

The change is not a response to what happened at the nuclear dump or an effort to appease state regulators, he said.

“There have been multiple discussions about this over the years to try to approach the cleanup work at Los Alamos in a similar manner that we do at our other sites,” Whitney said.

Retaining cops in wake of pension reforms A4 Thursday, December 4, 2014

PERA’s fund is doing well.

That’s very good news for you if you are one of the thousands of former state or local government employees who rely on PERA (Public Employees Retirement Association) for all or part of your retirement income. (Disclosure: That includes me).

PERA’s assets have almost doubled since the stock market cratered at the end of 2008. The fund now has close to $14 billion, with current earnings at roughly 17 percent. The “unfunded liability” — the projection of how much money will be owed over time compared to what’s available — is still worrisome but going down.

This was accomplished in part by legislation in 2013 in which PERA-covered employees and retirees accepted a package of benefit reductions.

If you’re not covered by a secure pension, you could ask how any of this benefits you or

why you should have the slightest interest in the solvency of these programs. It’s a common question.

Here’s my answer: First, public service work is valuable work, and communities benefit when people who have expertise in their jobs keep working at them. Second, the whole community benefits when some of its members have stable, secure retirement income.

Government workers are distributed everywhere, including the smaller and poorer communities. Their purchases help keep

the stores open. If they stay in their home communities after they retire, they’re a positive economic factor.

With public pensions under attack in some other states, it’s worth mentioning this every now and then.

After years of angst finding a formula that would restore PERA to stability, suddenly the program is faced with a new problem: a city with a policing problem.

Albuquerque’s big municipal police force is losing officers to an increase in retirements, due in part to those very changes that saved PERA — reduction in the way benefits are calculated. The city has more than 1,000 officers at full strength but is already down by about 200, with more retirements expected. To retain experienced officers, the city has voted to offer salary increases to officers who stay.

Other municipalities facing the

same issue may want to do the same.

This extra salary translates into extra pension. In the nor mal course of careers, contributions to the pension fund increase gradually over time. Between the employee and employer contributions, plus ear nings on those funds, the total should cover that employee’s pension benefits — at least, that’s the theory. When a large group of employees gets a big bump in salary right before they are due to retire, it throws off the numbers.

So, on one hand, it’s a relief that a legislative interim committee has been sympathetic to the proposal offered by PERA director Wayne Propst, who asked for a five-year moratorium on changes to let the fund’s stability improve in the wake of the recent reforms.

On the other hand, the police problem is a serious concern, and it’s a statewide concern. Ironical-

ly, as retirements and vacancies increase in Albuquerque, it’s not unlikely that the city will draw replacements from the police forces of outlying communities.

And finally, a five-year legislative moratorium is unenforceable.

Even if the full Legislature enacts a bill (or more likely, a memorial, which doesn’t have the force of law), it would be merely a statement of intention, and intentions can change.

This issue is sure to pose a challenge when the Legislature convenes in January. I’m hoping legislators can find a solution that doesn’t hurt one legitimate public interest at the expense of the other.

There are suspicions that the brazen act of piracy, which included not only “Annie,” but at least four other films, is related to the cyberattack Hollywood’s biggest studio suffered last week, which compromised Sony’s computer system and apparently left its films vulnerable to online leaks.

Sony declared the piracy “a criminal matter.” And the studio has enlisted the assistance of the FBI to track down the culprits.

Meanwhile, this latest cyberattack upon a major U.S. company can only further undermine public confidence in computer transactions they make in the wake of similar such attacks the past year and a half on a plethora of companies across a number of industries.

Kmart disclosed in October that its payment system had been compromised by malware, exposing customer credit card and debit card numbers. Then came Staples’ announcement, also in October, that, like Kmart, its payments had an “issue involving credit card data.”

In September, hackers stole the credit card numbers of 56 million Home Depot customers. And, in July, the phone numbers and email addresses of 83 million JP Morgan Chase account holders were exposed to hackers.

On an episode that aired Sunday on CBS’ “60 Minutes,” the CEO of the cybersecurity firm FireEye estimated that 97 percent of all large companies “are getting breached.”

Companies “can’t spend money or hire enough people to solve the problem,” said Dave DeWalt.

The omnipresent threat of cyberattacks upon major U.S. firms may not equal economic terrorism, but it is in the neighborhood.

As such, threat assessments of such attacks, which often originate in Russia, China and, possibly in the case of Sony, North Korea, ought to rank just below that of an attack upon the nation’s transportation network.

Indeed, Mr. DeWalt told “60 Minutes” that his firm tracks assaults on its client corporations with a real-time map showing where the cyberattacks originate and their targets.

“It’s an eerie throwback,” he said, “to Cold War illustrations of what a nuclear missile attack might look like, but with cyber attacks.”

The analogy is apt. America’s enemies today do not attack with missiles or armies.

Most choose, instead, to use computer bugs to attack the pillars of the U.S. economy.

Time for tough love on wind energy tax credits

A pending vote on a taxextenders package — that would have a slim chance of passage in the new Congress — will reveal whether or not Congress learned anything from the 2014 midterms.

Throughout 2014, since the Production Tax Credit (PTC) for the wind energy industry expired on Dec. 31, 2013, lobbyists from the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA) have pushed Congress to vote to retroactively revive the PTC. The lame duck session provides their last opportunity.

The PTC provides one of the best examples of the worst kind of taxpayer waste being considered in a tax-extenders deal. The largest benefactors of the credit (underwritten by U.S. taxpayers) are wind energy turbine manufacturers like General Electric (which purchased Enron’s wind turbine business in 2002), and investors like Warren Buffet, who, without apology, recently admitted: “We get a tax credit if we build a lot of wind farms.

That’s the only reason to build them. They don’t make sense without the tax credit.”

MARITA NOON ENERGY COLUMNIST

The U.S. wind energy business started as a gleam in Enron’s eye, enjoyed an entitled childhood at taxpayer expense, and, by now, should have blossomed into an adult.

Instead, now, at the tail end of this Congressional session, the industry — by way of AWEA lobbyists — has its hand out for a ninth round of “free” taxpayer money.

For this lame duck Congress, AWEA’s panhandling seems like a grown child returning home for financial support — “just one more time.” Congress must now realize the inevitable: sometimes seeing our dependents grow up to be independent requires tough love and a line in the sand.

When the PTC was conceived in 1992, America’s

energy paradigm dif fered totally from today. At that time, Americans had a constant concern. The growing imports of foreign oil from the Middle East left us vulnerable to global market forces that were driving prices. We inherently knew then, as now, lowcost abundant energy is essential to America’s leadership on the global stage. Wind was touted as one of the answers. Despite the fact that wind produces electricity (albeit inefficiently, ineffectively, uneconomically), and electricity has nothing to do with foreign oil, Washington, throwing caution to the wind, embraced it.

The Energy Policy Act (H.R.775.ENR, or “EPACT92”) was signed into law in 1992 and quickly created the wind industry. Unfortunately, EPACT92 was long on hope, but short on encouraging the habits necessary for self-sufficiency. No one should be surprised that the industry’s immaturity has persisted for more than 20 years.

The wind PTC has been the industry’s biggest single source — though unearned —

of support. Each new wind energy complex earns the tax credits for a full 10 years. The machines only last an estimated 20 years — though the White House has authorized 30-year bird-kill permits that allow, without punishment, protected bald and golden eagles to be chopped up midflight. The 2.3 cent per kWh bonus has a pre-tax value as high as 3.5 cents — which creates a big benefit to billionaires like Buffett.

Wholesale market revenues and the wind PTC make up only about two-thirds of total proceeds flowing to wind development owners. The other third comes from the value of additional federal subsidies combined with the financial incentives inherent in state-level tax breaks and mandates. In the end, wind investor proceeds depend on roughly one-third sales revenue and two-thirds handouts.

AWEA continues to claim its costs are falling and “almost competitive,” but fails to answer the most important question: competitive with

Edema of any cause is often worst in the legs and ankles.

When we’re sitting or standing, gravity pulls the water inside blood vessels downward. That raises pressure inside the blood vessels, which pushes water out into the space between the cells.

The two most common causes of leg and ankle swelling are (1) prolonged standing or sitting, especially in hot weather; and (2) weakness of tiny valves inside the veins of the legs. The weakened valves make it more difficult for the veins to pump blood back to the heart. As a result, water leaks out of the veins and into the space between the cells.

Pregnancy can cause edema in the legs. The baby and uterus press on the veins carrying blood from the legs to the heart.

Like weakened valves in leg veins, this causes water to leak out of the veins and into the space between the cells. Fluid retention during pregnancy also can be caused by a more serious condition called pre-eclampsia.

One serious cause of leg and ankle swelling in adults is congestive heart failure. When the heart is not pumping efficiently, some blood pools in the veins of the legs (again, because of gravity), and water leaks into the space between the cells.

Another cause is low protein levels in the blood, often the result of malnutrition or kidney and liver disease. This produces swelling not only in the legs and ankles but everywhere; puffy

Swollen legs and ankles have multitude of causes

DEAR DOCTOR K: Why are my legs and ankles swollen?

DEAR READER: Swelling of the legs from a buildup of extra fluid is known as edema. In addition to the swelling, the skin above the swollen area is stretched and shiny. Your doctor can easily check for edema by gently pressing a finger over your foot, ankle or leg with slow, steady pressure. If you have edema, you will see an indentation where the doctor pressed.

Swelling of the legs and ankles is usually not serious.

However, it can be caused by diseases of the heart, lungs, liver and kidney.

Where does the extra fluid come from? About 60 percent of our body weight is from water.

The water is in three “spaces.”

Most is in the space inside each

cell. Some is in the space between our cells. The rest is in the space inside our blood vessels and a few other locations.

Water passes back and forth between these spaces.

The presence of edema means that there is more fluid than normal in the space between the cells. Usually, this extra fluid comes from the fluid inside the blood vessels.

RMAC’s Holiday Open House Saturday LOCAL

Roswell Daily Record

BY OLGA MCGUIRE RMAC MEMBERSHIP AND EVENTS COORDINATOR

As the membership and events coordinator of the Roswell Museum and Art Center, I am very thankful to have such support from the staff in assisting with preparations for our upcoming Holiday Open House scheduled from 5 to 7:30 p.m. this Saturday.

RMAC staff are pitching in to help make this a successful holiday event. Our preparator, Rick Hurless, is busy on our patio with his handiwork in adding Christmas lights to the trees, and setting up a fireplace for the Marshmallow Roast. He has also been busy hanging Christmas

wreaths on the bridge railing.

RMAC’s Curator of Exhibitions, Sara Woodbury, is adding a personal musical touch to this event. She will be playing the flute with an ensemble to bring holiday joy. Our new volunteer, pianist Leonard Meekins will also be celebrating the day with seasonal music for all to enjoy.

The Roswell Museum and Art Center is pleased to have Meekins volunteer his wonderful musical talents with the recent donation by the Anderson Museum of Contemporary Art of a

baby grand piano. Certainly, all of us feel so grateful to the Anderson Museum for their donation which has allowed the RMAC to express itself in music and help us put everyone in a festive mood at the open house.

The RMAC is also fortunate to have a touch of holiday art in the stars planned by our Planetarium Dir ector Mar cus de Thouars. Marcus will have three planetarium shows and activities scheduled for the Open House from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Another exciting activity will be ornament making.

This is a free craft activity where you can create a keepsake holiday ornament with our Curator of Education, Claudia Gonzalez. That activity will take place in the class rooms which

Thursday, December 4, 2014

will be accessible through the Bassett Auditorium where we will have numerous public service tables detailing some important programs in Roswell.

Of course our Membership table will be of service as well.

It’s the season for shopping, so what do you get someone that has it all? Consider an annual museum membership, with differ ent membership levels to choose from. Having a membership will be exciting all year round, which includes invitations to all member events, discounts on classes, and of course the museum store discounts.

Using sulfur to acidify the soil to release iron Q: I live about a mile north of Tome Hill off south El Cerro Loop on an old farm field. The caliche level is 12-18 inches deep. I have numerous trees that are chlorotic. I plan to use water-soluble sulfur pellets in 2-inch holes drilled around the drip line of the trees. In ad dition, I will spread the pellets around the surface. Is this a good idea? Will the sulfur in the holes be too concentrated?

How far apart should I drill the holes? How deeply?

How much sulfur in each hole?

A. Sulfur can indeed help acidify the soil to release iron that has been chemically bound to alkaline soil. A common recommendation is to auger several holes around the tree outside the dripline of the tree. These holes should be about 2 inches in diameter (however, diameter is not

critical) and about 1 foot deep. The hole can be made with a post hole digger, hand auger, power auger or water from the end of a water hose eroding a hole as the hose is pressed into the ground.

Moist soil will excavate much more easily than dry soil. These holes should be placed about every 2 to 3 feet apart in a circle around the tree. This will create a zone of acidified soil with iron available to the tree roots. You will need to do this again in a few years when the symptoms of chlorosis redevelop. At that time move out a little farther from the tree and

place the holes in locations between the previous holes.

We often recommend refilling the hole with a mixture of compost, iron sulfate or iron chelate, and sulfur. This mixture provides several benefits, and is less likely to damage roots than if the holes were filled with just sulfur pellets. In either case this is a measure temporary because the high level of calcium and other minerals in a caliche layer will ultimately overcome the effects of the sulfur and other acidifying compounds.

Compost is slightly acidifying, but helps provide bulk for refilling the holes for

safety, for holding moisture, and slowly releasing nutrients. Compost also creates an environment that encourages proliferation of roots in the area of the hole. The iron sulfate or iron chelate material provides iron to overcome the iron chlorosis you have described in your trees.

Iron sulfate will acidify the soil, but iron chelate will pro vide a longer lasting supply of iron to the roots of the trees.

An iron chelate compound (a substance that chemically binds the iron and slowly releases it to the soil) using the chelating agent EDDHA have proven to be the best chelating compounds for our alkaline soils. Addition of sulfur further acidifies the soil around the hole, prolonging the availability of the iron.

These holes filled with

New Mexico struggles despite federal largess

LOS ALAMOS (AP) — Tucked in the mountains of one of the poor est states is one of the nation’s wealthiest counties: Los Alamos, which, except for its landscapes, looks decidedly unlike the rest of New Mexico.

In Los Alamos, there’s a new county building and a renovated community center. Less than 30 miles north is Rio Arriba County, home to drug- and crime-plagued Espanola, whose main drag is a mix of fast-food restaurants, boarded-up businesses, a casino-hotel and a WalMart.

A verage per -capita income in Rio Arriba: $20,000, well below half Los Alamos County’s $50,740.

The contrast highlights an unusual wealth gap in New Mexico: Unlike other states, the richest residents of New Mexico work mainly in the public sector, while almost everyone else is employed in the private sector.

That dynamic is both a blessing and a curse. In all, according to a study by the Pew Charitable Trust’s Fiscal Federalism Initiative, about 35 percent of New Mexico’s economy comes from the federal government — the highest such figur e for any state.

Critics say an inability to diversify the economy has exacerbated income disparities. They say that at a time of tight federal budgets, the state can’t afford to stake its economic future on government spending.

Unless new industries can be attracted, workers will have to settle for whatever lower -paying government jobs are available or for low-wage service industry work, according to political leaders and experts on the state’s economy.

“The rest of the nation is

subsidizing New Mexico,” said Jake Arnold, a political consultant.

The issue was a key topic in this fall’s governor’s race, with Republican Gov. Susana Martinez saying she cut business taxes to spark the creation of mor e private-sector jobs.

But so far, large-scale job-creation efforts have faltered.

Spaceport America in Sierra County, the venture of entrepreneur Richard Branson, was supposed to lure both jobs and tourism dollars. Instead, the county is losing private-sector jobs, according to state data.

The building and runway sit nearly empty. The br eakup Oct. 31 of its experimental rocket-powered spaceship over the Califor nia desert has raised new doubts about whether the space-tourism flights will ever happen.

The company says tests flights could resume as early as next summer.

“I think we gave up on all that a long time ago,” said Stephanie Ontiveros, who works at the Butte General Store and Marine in Sierra County, which raised its taxes to help support Spaceport.

Sierra is now among the New Mexico counties with the lowest average wages, and, like Rio Arriba, it is plagued by empty buildings and businesses for sale.

New Mexico ranked last among states for job growth from January 2011 through 2013. It is second, behind Mississippi, in the percentage of its residents living in poverty — a per centage that increased from 20.8 percent in 2012 to 21.9 percent in 2013, Census figures show. It also consistently ranks at or near the bottom of national rankings for education and child welfare.

the mixture or just sulfur pellets will allow water to more easily reach the roots of trees. As with most of the above information the proportions of these materials, like the depth and diameter of the holes, is not critical. However, a rough guide to proportions is about six parts compost, two parts iron sulfate/chelate, and two parts sulfur by volume. So, 60 percent compost, 20 percent iron compound and 20 percent sulfur.

The soil around the holes will more readily provide iron to overcome iron chlorosis symptoms (especially if an iron supplying material is added). This zone of moist, less alkaline soil will foster growth of numerous, small absorptive roots that will collect the nutrients needed for tree health.

what? Last week, a New York Times headline proclaimed: “Solar and Wind Energy Start to Win on Price vs. Conventional Fuels,” yet, within the text, the article states: “Those prices were made possible by generous subsidies that could soon diminish or expire.”

Just days before the NYT piece was published, two of America’s brightest minds admitted, that after four years of trying to prove that it was possible “to produce a gigawatt of renewable power more cheaply than a coal-fired plant,” renewable energy simply “won’t work.”

The wind PR machine never brings up dependability and responsiveness to demand — attributes its fuel cannot, by definition, ever deliver. Without the ability to convert wind currents into electricity at all the right times, wind energy facilities cannot replace the existing dependable power plants that keep our lights on.

Wind’s fuel may be free, but having to build and maintain two sets of power plants instead of one costs far more than wind’s fuel-cost advantage can save.

Hardliners push Protests erupt as NY cop cleared opposing Obama immigration actions

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a defiant challenge to GOP leaders, immigration hardliners in Congress announced Wednesday they will oppose upcoming legislation to keep the gover nment open. They demanded specific provisions to stop President Barack Obama’s executive actions that granted a reprieve from deportation for millions.

“We aren’t with our vote going to give him one dime to execute his illegal action, and we believe the American people are going to stand with us,” said Rep. Michele Bachmann, RMinn., at a press conference outside the Capitol where she was joined by other House conservatives and Sen. Ted Cruz, RTexas.

Cruz war ned against “having a meaningless show vote” and said: “We should announce we mean what we say, we will use our constitutional authorities to force this president to faithfully execute the laws.”

The growing conservative opposition was a problem for House Speaker John Boehner and other Republican leaders a day after they

OBITUARIES

Bobbi Alcorn

Naomi Roberta (Bobbi) Alcorn, 89, passed away peacefully with grace and dignity on Sunday, November 30, 2014 surrounded by her loving family. Services are scheduled for Friday, December 5, 2014 at 11:00 am with an early preview from 10:30-11:00 at Grace Community Church with Pastor Rick Hale officiating.

Inter ment will follow at South Park Cemetery.

Born to Earl and Freida Korf on October 3, 1925 in Kenosha, Wisconsin, Naomi Roberta Kor f grew up in Chicago. By the age of 12, after developing a strong desire to dance and with the support of her mother, Bobbi was placed with the best teacher in Chicago, Merriel Abbott, who also directed the famed “Abbott Line” at the renowned Palmer House in Chicago.

After only three years of study in ballet, toe, acrobatics, tap, jazz and musical comedy, Miss Abbott told ‘a little white lie’ about Bobbi’s age, then 15, and deemed her a professional, launching her career as a dancer at the Palmer House.

Following a strict regimen under Miss Abbott while per for ming and teaching dance to new students, Bobbi also found time to graduate as Valedictorian from the Performing Arts High School she attended. She also got a taste of Hollywood when the Abbott girls appeared in several MGM movies.

At age 18, as American troops were marching through Europe during WWII, Bobbi joined a six month tour with the USO (United Services Organization), performing with the troupe and as a solo dancer in Europe, Asia and Africa.

Using the stage name, Naomi Roberts, military personnel voted her the “Pin-up Girl” of the Persian Gulf Command.

During the USO tour,

presented House Republicans with a two-part plan to respond to Obama’s move on immigration and keep the government running past Dec. 11, when a current funding measure expires.

The plan involves voting on stand-alone legislation this week to declare Obama’s immigration move “null and void.” Then next week, lawmakers would pass a spending bill that funds most government operations for a year but keeps the Department of Homeland Security running only for a few months. Since Homeland Security overseas immigration issues, the approach is meant to maintain leverage over those programs and revisit them next year when Republicans will control both the House and the Senate.

But for the most conservative House members, the approach does not do enough to rein in Obama, who incited GOP wrath with his move last month to grant work permits to some 4 million immigrants living in the country illegally.

Bobbi met her husband-tobe, Rex Alcorn, in Belgium.

They would marry three years later after both returned to the U.S. After the war, Bobbi retur ned to Chicago to begin a solo dance career, was called back to the Abbott Line and chosen to model for the Varga Calendar where she was honored to be named the “Varga Girl of 1946”. Continuing her modeling career after a back injury ended her professional dance career, photographers followed her Chicago, Dallas, to Phoenix, Los Angeles and San Francisco. She also taught modeling and was the model chosen when the color “avocado” made its debut in Dallas in 1949.

After their marriage, Bobbi and Rex lived in Dallas, then transferred to Carlsbad, NM and finally to Roswell where Rex served as a geologist for Sun Oil Co. and later as an independent. During the first several years of their marriage, they had three children, Dennis, David and Fawn. Shortly after their move to Roswell, Bobbi fulfilled a lifelong dream of opening a dance studio in 1961 to share her love of dance and assure that daughter, Fawn, would have an excellent dance education. She always felt there is much more to be gained through dance training than just a physical aptitude. There is beauty in working mind and body together.

During the early years of the Alcor n Academy of Dance, Bobbi enjoyed a precious relationship with a British bor n dancer, Laine Johns, who taught with her at the dance academy, later opening her own studio in El Paso. This extraordinary friendship endured for the rest of her life.

While Bobbi and daughter, Fawn, owned and operated the dance studio, she shared her professional talents with the community through the Roswell Symphony Youth Concerts, Assistance League Frolics productions and many other benefits. Further, while serving as an instructor for numerous dance organizations throughout the country, Bobbi worked with and choreographed many local theater productions, and judged several beauty pageants in New Mexico and Texas. She also served on the board and

NEW YORK (AP) — A grand jury cleared a white police officer Wednesday in the videotaped chokehold death of an unarmed black man stopped for selling loose, untaxed cigarettes, triggering protests in the streets by hundreds of New Yorkers who likened the case to the deadly police shooting in Ferguson, Missouri.

As the demonstrations mounted, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said federal authorities would conduct a civil rights investigation into the July 17 death of Eric Garner at the hands of Of ficer Daniel Pantaleo.

Staten Island District Attorney Daniel Donovan said the grand jury found “no reasonable cause” to bring charges, but unlike the chief prosecutor in the Ferguson case, he gave no details on how the panel arrived at its decision. The grand jury could have considered a range of charges, from reckless endangerment to murder.

Protesters gathered in T imes Square and converged on the heavily secured area around the annual Rockefeller Center Christmas tree lighting with a combination of professional-looking signs and hand-scrawled placards reading, “Black lives

faculty of the Texas Association Teachers of Dancing.

Bobbi was a member and past President of the Roswell Symphony Guild and a past member of the Parent Advisory Council to the Roswell ISD. She also served as President of the Roswell Petro Club, and on the Board of Patrons of the Roswell Little Theater.

After retiring in 2002, Bobbi spent many years caring for her beloved husband of 62 years, Rex, who passed away in 2011. She continued to do volunteer work at the Community Kitchen, Roswell Symphony Orchestra and the Eastern New Mexico Medical Center Auxiliary. As an auxiliary member until her passing, she cherished several precious friends who filled her heart with joy on a daily basis.

Having received numerous awards and accolades throughout the years, one of her most treasured is the recent honor as a Silent Servant presented by the Roswell Historical Society in 2011 for her contribution to the children and community of Roswell.

Thousands of students attended the Alcorn Academy of Dance throughout its 42 year history and the influence of “Mrs. A” will continue to positively impact lives for generations. Many of Bobbi’s former dancers continued to visit and stay in touch with her, always praising and thanking her for not only teaching them to dance, but how to live life fully with pride, dignity, perseverance and flair. Bobbi’s legacy will always be a blessing and inspiration to family and friends.

While Bobbi was dedicated to her professional accomplishments and community involvement, her greatest joy and passion in life was her family. The love and respect Bobbi and Rex shared was a gift to her children. Her discipline, generosity and kindness were an inspirational and everlasting example of a well lived life.

Bobbi is survived by son Dennis and wife, Debby, of Prosper, Texas, son David of Roswell, daughter Fawn Alcorn-Pierce of Roswell; grandchildren Zac Wilberger of Prosper, Texas, Holly and husband, David Triche of Austin, Texas and Tracey Wilberger of Frisco, Texas; and great-grandchildren Taylor Wilberger of Frisco, Texas and Nathanial Triche

They said his poor health was the main reason he died.

Mayor Bill de Blasio canceled an appearance at the tree lighting and met with Garner’s father and other community leaders. At a Staten Island church, he said, “There’s a lot of pain and frustration in the room this evening,” but he called on protesters to remain peaceful.

NBC’s Snyderman For Cosby accuser, a day in court awaits returns with apology

NEW YORK (AP) — NBC News medical reporter Nancy Snyderman apologized on the “Today” show Wednesday for violating her quarantine for Ebola exposure, saying she failed to appreciate how frightened Americans were of the disease.

It was Snyderman’s first on-air appearance in a month and a half, and she followed her talk with Matt Lauer by reporting a story on women and depression.

NBC had kept her off the air following an angry public reaction to her broken promise: After saying she’d stay in her New Jersey home until the danger for symptoms of the disease had passed, she was spotted in a car getting takeout food.

“I’m very sorry for not only scaring my community and the country, but adding to the confusion of ter ms that came as fast and furious as the news about Ebola,” said Synderman, a surgeon who has worked for NBC News since 2006 after a long stint at ABC. Snyder man had been reporting on the Ebola outbreak in Liberia in October and worked briefly with cameraman Ashoka Mukpo, who came down with the deadly virus.

Mukpo came back to the United States for treatment and has since recovered, and no one else from NBC was infected.

Snyderman said she and fellow crew members were taking their temperatures several times a day to check to see if they were developing symptoms. But within 72 hours of agreeing to a 21-day quarantine, Snyderman left her home, compelling New Jersey

authorities to then make her quarantine mandatory.

“We knew the risks in our heads,” Snyderman, “but we didn’t really appreciate and frankly were not sensitive to how absolutely frightened Americans were.”

She said “good people make mistakes and I stepped outside the boundaries of what I promised to do and what the public expected of me, and for that I’m sorry.”

Snyder man said she would be willing to go back to Africa tomorrow to cover Ebola. Left unsaid was whether NBC would take her off the story given the furor over her violation.

There was genuine doubt among NBC executives about whether Snyderman would be allowed to return at all. NBC said Wednesday it was not commenting beyond Snyderman’s interview.

More than 100 public comments about Snyder’s apology were posted on the “Today” show website by early Wednesday afternoon.

They were overwhelmingly negative, although there was some suggestion that she deserved some sympathy.

“We want to make you a loan”

$200 - $2,000 (575)622-0900

LOS ANGELES (AP) — For weeks, women have publicly shared stories of alleged sexual abuse by Bill Cosby with the expectation that any lawsuits they might file would be blocked due to longexpired statutes of limitations.

On Tuesday, however, a woman who claims Cosby molested her in a bedroom of the Playboy Mansion around 1974 filed a sexual battery lawsuit, using an exemption that allows victims of childhood sexual abuse to sue decades after the incident.

Judy Huth contends she was 15 years old when Cosby abused her and filed the lawsuit in Los Angeles because she only recently became aware of psychological damage caused by the incident. Experts say Huth’s lawsuit is the latest high-profile example of an alleged abuse victim getting their day in court.

“The reality is, with sex-

reality of victimization,” she said. “The original public policy is no longer valid because we know better now.”

She said statute of limitations laws that limited victims, especially those of childhood sex abuse, from filing claims later in life reflect an outdated public policy.

It can take decades for a victim of child sex abuse to realize the impact it’s had on their life, said Raymond Boucher, a civil litigator who was the lead attorney in molestation lawsuits against the Catholic Church of California.

Boucher’s work led to the settlement of many of the cases for $660 million in 2007.

“When you’re talking about rape or sexual abuse, so often the victims suppress the feelings, the emotion, and the incident itself,” Boucher said.

For Huth’s lawsuit to survive, she will have to show that she discovered the alleged abuse by Cosby caused significant psychological damage within the past three years.

Cowboys look to bounce back against Bears Thursday, December 4, 2014 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — If the Dallas Cowboys can avoid another late-season letdown, they can reach a significant goal: the NFC East title.

The first step is getting past the Chicago Bears on Thursday night.

They are a game behind Philadelphia in the NFC East after getting blown out 33-10 by the Eagles on Thanksgiving and have another showdown with them next week that could be for the division lead.

But before Dallas (8-4) can worry about that, there’s this matchup with the struggling Bears (5-7) at Soldier Field.

“It’s hard to get to this point in the year and be 84 and right in the middle of the hunt,” tight end Jason Witten said. “I think you play long enough like I have you respect the opportunity that you have and where you are positioned.

So I am excited about that.”

It’s not hard to see why he is excited considering the Cowboys last made the playoffs in 2009. But they have struggled in recent years once December arrived.

In 2011, they dropped four of their final five. A year later, they dropped their final two games after taking the first three in December. Last year, they lost three of their last four.

All three seasons they wound up 8-8, and anything less than a playoff appearance would be a big letdown for a team that started 6-1.

Of course, this week’s opponent knows all about disappointment. A loss at Detroit last Thursday all

but assured the Bears will miss the playoffs for the seventh time in eight years.

And the Bears may also be without kicker Robbie Gould this week. He was listed as doubtful because of a right quadriceps injury and the Bears signed veteran Jay Feely on Wednesday.

Chicago is basically in the spoiler role now, hoping to hand the Cowboys their first road loss. Dallas is a league-best 5-0 this season and has won six straight away from home since a 45-28 pounding at Soldier Field on a bone-chilling night last December.

Here are some things to look for in this game:

Bounce back

Dallas’ Tony Romo looks to rebound from a rough game.

Coming off back surgery last December and another back injury sustained on a sack in October, he appeared to be the Cowboys player most affected by the quick turnaround before last week’s game. He got sacked four times and intercepted twice while throwing for 199 yards, and his rating for the game was 53.7 compared to 106.2 for the season.

It also wasn’t a good game for the defense, which gave up a seasonhigh 464 yards against the Eagles.

The lion and the gazelle

Bears tight end Martellus Bennett acknowledged he and Witten were not exactly best friends when they were teammates in Dallas.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo (9) hands off the football to running back DeMarco Murray (29) during the first half of an NFL football game against the Philadelphia Eagles, Thursday, Nov. 27.

Part of that stems from the fact that he was a young player looking for an opportunity to contribute that was not there with a veteran ahead of him.

“Every single year there’s a lion coming out of college,” Bennett said. “You know what I’m saying? And every single year there’s an old guy in the NFL who’s a gazelle. And every single morning the gazelle wakes up because the gazelle has to run, otherwise the lion catches it. So every single morning the lion wakes up he chases the gazelle. In

that situation I was the lion. I didn’t catch the gazelle, though. I had to go to another jungle.”

Bennett had 85 receptions in four seasons with the Cowboys (2008-11). He made a big jump with the New York Giants in 2012, catching 55 passes, and he has emerged as one of the top players at his position in two seasons with the Bears. Bennett is tied with Jimmy Graham and Rob Gronkowski for league lead among tight ends with 65 catches and has 737 yards receiving.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — A two-day hearing at Florida State that could deter mine quarterback Jameis Winston’s future at the university ended on Wednesday with no decision and no definitive timetable on when the case will be resolved.

The hearing, which was held approximately two years after a female student said Winston sexually assaulted her in December 2012, was held to determine whether Winston violated any or all of four sections of the code of conduct — two for sexual misconduct and two for endangerment.

John Clune, an attorney representing the woman at the closed hearing, did predict that the for mer Florida State Supreme Court justice presiding over the proceedings will announce his decision by

the end of the year.

Justice Major Harding has given both sides up to five days to submit a proposed order on what they think the outcome should be, Clune said. Harding will use those briefs as the basis for his decision, which is supposed to come within 10 class days after the hearing ends.

Both parties have an opportunity to request an appeal within five days of the initial hearing decision. Florida State’s fall semester ends next week and the potential ramifications for Winston range from a reprimand to expulsion from school.

Attorneys for both Winston and the former FSU student had starkly different assessments of how the hearing went for their clients.

David Cor nwell, an adviser for Winston and

Another gear

Not that he’s in much danger of losing the rushing title, but DeMarco Murray’s pace has slowed a little in recent weeks.

He ran for a season-low 73 yards on 20 carries against Philadelphia. And in the four games since he ran for 141 against Washington, he is averaging just over 93 yards.

Even so, he still leads the rushing race by nearly 400 yards with 1,427. Pittsburgh’s Le’Veon Bell is second with 1,046.

Balancing act

The run-pass balance has been an issue for the Bears this season, and it came to the forefront again last week at Detroit.

Chicago ran the ball just eight times for 13 yards, with Matt Forte matching a career low with five carries for 6 yards. He called for more balance this week, as did coach Marc Trestman, quarterback Jay Cutler and offensive coordinator Aaron Kromer.

Jameis Winston’s FSU hearing ends, no decision

Florida State NCAA college football quarterback Jameis Winston, right, and his attorney David Cornwell arrive at Florida State's Materials Research building for his student code on conduct hearing, Tuesday.

his family, said the hearing contained “more inconsistencies” and “more lies” about what happened in December 2012. He said that there was “no evidence” presented that should prompt a hearing officer to find Winston violated FSU’s conduct rules.

Cor nwell repeated his assertions that the entire point of the hearing was to establish a record that could be used in a potential civil lawsuit against the Heisman Trophy winner.

“It was clear what this was about, absolutely clear what this was about, it is a shakedown,” Cornwell said.

Clune brushed aside Cor nwell’s statements, saying that the hearing went well enough that he thinks there is enough evidence presented to convince the hearing officer to

expel Winston from school.

“The testimony came in as we had hoped it would,” Clune said.

Clune also said the prospect of a civil lawsuit could depend on what happens to Winston.

Winston was never arrested following an investigation of the woman’s allegation. Prosecutor Willie Meggs declined to file criminal charges last year, citing a lack of evidence.

The Associated Press does not identify people who say they are victims of sexual abuse.

The hearing was closed to the public and media.

Winston did not speak to reporters outside the campus building and is expected to lead the Seminoles against Georgia Tech Saturday in the Atlantic

Monta Ellis hits shot at buzzer, Mavericks beat Bucks MILWAUKEE (AP) — Monta Ellis hit a wild, fallaway jumper at the buzzer, lifting the Dallas Mavericks over the Milwaukee Bucks 107-105 on Wednesday night.

A night after Ellis scored 38 points in a double-overtime win at Chicago, he got 23. He had eight in the final two minutes on what otherwise had been a bad shooting night for the Mavericks’ top scorer, playing against his former team.

The Mavericks won their fifth in a row while resting Dirk Nowitzki because of a sore back. Coach Rick Carlisle called it a “precautionary” move.

Nowitzki played 42 minutes in the Mavs’ win at Chicago. He recently was given another night off.

Tyson Chandler scored 18 points and added 20 rebounds for the Mavericks.

Brandon Knight scored

25 points and Khris Middleton added 21 for the Bucks in the third straight loss.

Dallas’ Jameer Nelson made a wide-open 3-pointer to cut the Bucks’ lead to one with just under two minutes left. After a travel

by Jabari Parker, Ellis hit a layup on the other end to give Dallas a 100-99 lead with 1:34 left.

In a back-and-forth ending, Ellis made a jumper that put the Mavs ahead with 32.9 seconds left, and Milwaukee turned the ball over on an offensive foul by Knight. Richard Jefferson hit one of two free throws for a 105-103 lead.

But Knight hit a jumper over Chandler to tie it with 8.9 seconds left. That set up Ellis, who made a shot falling away to his left with O.J. Mayo guarding him.

Tip-ins

Mavericks: Carlisle said

the team is being cautious to make sure Nowitzki’s back injury doesn’t linger or get worse. “We’ve got to get that thing knocked out of there and get him ready for whatever the next game is,” Carlisle said. ...

Carlisle, who coached Bucks coach Jason Kidd on the Mavericks’ 2011 championship team, said Kidd was among “the most competitive guys in the history of the game.” ... A technical foul was called on the Mavs’ bench early in the third quarter.

Bucks: Forward Ersan Ilyasova has been ruled out at last four games after an elbow to the face left him with a nasal fracture and concussion-like symptoms in Tuesday night’s loss at Cleveland. The team said Ilyasova also showed symptoms of a mild concussion. ... Zaza Pachulia was called for a technical late in the second quarter.

Texas beats New Mexico 86-37 AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Brady Sanders, making her first start of the season, scored 13 points to fourth-ranked help Texas beat New Mexico 8 6 - 3 7 o n We d n e s d a y night.

Sanders, a sophomore guard, replaced freshman Ariel Atkins in the starting lineup. Not that it mattered much who started. Twelve of the 13 Texas players who appeared in the game scored as the Longhorns improved to 6-0 to start a season for the first time since 2008-09.

Brianna Taylor and Brooke McCarty scored 11 points apiece for Texas, one more than Tasia Foman. Forward Nneka Enemkpali led Texas in rebounds with 10.

The Longhorns did most of their damage around the basket, outscoring New Mexico 44-14 in the paint.

Antiesha Brown led New Mexico (1-6) with 13 points.

Texas used a couple of devastating and prolonged runs to take a 50-12 halftime lead. The first push was 21-0; the

Winston

second 14-0.

New Mexico (1-6) went scoreless for nearly six minutes during the Longhorns’ first streak and nearly seven during the second.

Texas did most of its damage with a procession of shots from pointblank range, particularly during the 21-0 surge. The Longhor ns made nine layups and one short jump shot in that stretch.

The Longhor ns were credited with 30 points in the paint out of their 50. New Mexico helped out with 18 tur novers and Texas turned those into 24 points.

Texas coach Karen Aston knows she does not have a great collection of perimeter shooters — the Longhorns have hit only 31 percent on 3-pointers — and that is of concern to Aston.

But the Longhorns, loaded with quick guards and Kelsey Lang, a 6-foot-5 center who has a nice touch around the basket and from mid-range, have become paint-ball wizards, dominating opponents in the

lane.

B e f o r e We d n e s d a y , they had outscored opponents 35-21 per game in the paint.

Tip-ins

Texas: Imani McGeeStafford, the Longhorns’ 6-foot-7 junior center who has yet to play this season because she is recovering from a stress fracture in her left leg, could return to the lineup in December. In the meantime, her 6-5 former backup, sophomore Kelsey Lang, was named Big 12 player of the week after averaging 19 points, with 75 percent shooting accuracy, and 6.5 r ebounds against Texas-Pan American and Tennessee.

New Mexico: The Lobos ar e now 0-4 against nationally ranked teams this season. They lost to T exas A&M and Stanford, each ranked No.5 at the time of the game.

They also lost to DePaul, which was ranked 18th.

While Clune acknowledged that his client had testified, a document obtained by the AP states t h a t Wi n s t o n u s e d h i s right in the student code to refuse to answer questions from the hearing officer.

The document, which was Winston’s five-page statement in the case, says that he would only answer questions in a l e g a l p r o c e e d i n g w h er e the woman could be charged with perjury if she lied.

In his statement, Winston said he had consensual sex with the woman in his apartment and that he never used “physical violence, threats or other coercive means” to get her

to have sex with him. He also said he did not buy her a drink when they first met at a Tallahassee bar nor did he give her any drugs. Winston also said the woman never seemed upset and even hugged him when he dropped her off at an FSU dorm.

When informed of Winston’s statement, Clune questioned its merits.

“This was not testimon y, ” C lu ne t o l d t h e A P, “but just something obviously written by his lawyer. Mr. Winston still has yet to answer our questions about his conduct.”

The hearing was held as Florida State is investigated by the U.S. Department of Education on how it handles possible T itle

IX violations. The woman who said Wi n s t o n assaulted her filed a complaint with the department’s Office for Civil Rights, which decided the university should be investigated for the way it responds to sexual violence complaints.

T itle IX is a federal statute that bans discrimination at schools that receive federal funding.

The Department of Education in 2011 warned schools of their legal responsibilities to immediately investigate allegations of sexual assault and domestic violence, even if the criminal investigation has not concluded.

Woods returns with an eye to the past WINDERMERE, Fla. (AP) — T iger Woods is making his latest comeback in golf with an eye to the past.

Equipped with a new teacher and a stronger body, Woods said Tuesday he is working on a swing that incorporates previous moves that date as far back as his amateur days. He referred to it as “new, but old,” and the 14time major champion will start testing it this week against an 18-man field of elite players at t h e H e r o Wo r l d C h a l lenge.

How old were some of those videotapes he watched of his previous swing?

“Actually, it’s pretty interesting trying to find a VHS recorder,” Woods said. “I have a lot of tape like that. Fortunately, my mom is of age where she has that still in the house. So that was very beneficial to look at some of the old tapes.”

Otherwise, it’s another new beginning.

This is the fifth time Wo o d s h a s r e t u r n e d from injury — the back, this time — over the last five years. The breaks have ranged from four weeks to four months.

He last competed on Aug. 9 when he missed the cut at the PGA Championship, ending his shortest season (eight tournaments) since his 2008 knee surgery and the first time he did not have a top 10.

Wo o d s s a i d h e h a d enough time of f to let his body heal and to think about where he wants his game to go.

First, he split with swing coach Sean Foley, ending a three-year relationship that pr oduced eight PGA T our wins but no majors.

“I think that physically, I just wasn’t able to d o so me o f t h e th in gs that we wanted to do in the golf swing,” Woods said.

Woods said there was no reason to look back

at old swings at the time because he felt he was headed in the right direction — three victories in 2012, and five wins in 2013 in which he was voted PGA Tour player of the year for the 11th time. Those two years were relatively free of injuries.

“But unfortunately, physically I was getting damaged doing it,” he said. “So in retrospect, you look at it. Was I ever hurt when I was little?

Granted, I don’t think we all were. I think we all could jump off roofs and nothing would break. But playing detective and looking back on it, you have to somewhat have an understanding physically of where you are at the time.”

He announced just over a week ago that he had hired Dallas-based Chris Como as a swing consultant, after longtime friend Notah Begay put them together.

Woods said he had a plan, and that Como was on the same page.

“I was very surprised and very excited to see what he felt my swing should look like, and should look like going forwar d,” Woods said.

“Because that was very similar to the vision I had.”

Woods did not delve into specifics of his swing, which he rarely did when going through an overhaul with Butch Harmon, then Hank Haney and Foley.

“It is new, but it’s old,” he said. “I say that because I haven’t done it in a very long time.

We l o o k e d a t a l o t o f video from when I was a j u n i o r, i n j u n i o r a n d amateur golf. ... And it was quite interesting to see where my swing was then and how much force I could generate with a very skinny frame. How did I do that? How do I generate that much power?

That’s kind of what we are getting back into it.”

Even so, Woods concedes that age — he

tur ns 39 at the end of the month — has kept him from overpowering golf the way he once did.

Along with four operations on his left knee, and problems with his Achilles tendon in 2011, Woods lately has been coping with back problems. He had surgery a week before the Masters and missed two majors.

Upon his return in the s u m m e r, h e h a d h i s worst 72-hole showing in the British Open and missed the cut in the PGA Championship.

“I’ve gotten stronger.

I’ve gotten more explosive. I’ve gotten faster,” he said. “I now just need to hit mor e balls. But the body is good. I don’t have the sharp pain like I used to at the beginning of the year. I don’t have that anymore. I still have some aches and pains, just like anybody else who is my age and older.”

It took Woods about 18 months to work out the big change under Harmon, and about a year to adapt to changes under Haney. He won his first tournament just over a year after working with Foley. He doesn’t know how long this change will take, although he said the motor patterns are vaguely familiar.

“Am I game ready?

Probably not quite as I would like to be,” Woods said. “How long does it take me to get back into the flow of a round?

Sometimes it takes me a shot, sometimes it takes me three or four holes after a long layoff. I don’t know. We’ll see on Thursday.”

2015 European Tour season opens in Sun City Roswell Daily Record

The fight to topple Rory McIlroy starts again on Thursday.

It’s not yet 2015, but the new European Tour season opens this week in South Africa at the Nedbank Golf Challenge in Sun City, with three former top-ranked players among those looking to get a jump on 2014 money list winner and No. 1 McIlroy.

Martin Kaymer and Lee Westwood retur n to the Gary Player Country Club in the wilderness of northern South Africa as previous winners. Luke Donald is still searching for a win at Sun City, which first offered rankings points on the European Order of Merit last season.

Along with those ex-No. 1s, Thomas Bjorn defends his title following the biggest payday of his career 12 months ago, when the Dane made two back-nine eagles on the last day to claim the hefty $1.25 million winner’s check.

Like a few others in the 30-man field, Germany’s Kaymer faces the balancing act of winding down a tiring 2014 schedule with the chance to kickstart his 2015 season. Kaymer won a second major at the U.S. Open at Pinehurst in June

and was also part of Europe’s Ryder Cup-winning team in September.

“It has been a long season, probably the longest I’ve ever played,” he said.

“There won’t be much practice this week as it’s just about conserving energy.”

But Kaymer will rely on “positive memories,” he said, after winning the Nedbank in 2012.

“When I play on Thursday, I’m not going to be tired on the golf course.

Once the tour nament starts, there’s no problem with motivation.”

Westwood was dominant on the Gary Player designed layout to win back-to-back titles in 2010 and 2011.

The Englishman has been posting a string of photos from Sun City on his Twitter account over the past few days, saying the four flights he took to get to the resort he likes so much were well worth it.

“It’s always great coming back to a golf course where you’ve had success in the past,” he said.

Kaymer, Westwood and Bjorn are joined by fellow European Ryder Cup winners Jamie Donaldson and Stephen Gallacher, and Miguel Angel Jimenez, who

was one of Paul McGinley’s vice captains at Gleneagles.

Three Americans hope to be the first U.S. winner since Jim Furyk in 2006: Brooks Koepka, Kevin Na and Brendon Todd, with Todd a late addition after Victor Dubuisson withdrew with injury over the weekend.

Koepka won his maiden European Tour title last month in Turkey and was rookie of the year, finishing eighth on the money list in his first full season on tour.

There’s also a feeling the 7,831-yard (7,161-meter) Sun City design might suit the long-hitter, who called it a “neat course” after his first look.

“It plays to a lot of my strengths, which will be interesting as the week goes along,” Koepka said.

South Africans Charl Schwartzel and Louis Oosthuizen are the only other major winners in the field along with Kaymer. But fans’ hopes of a first home win at South Africa’s favorite tour nament in seven years are low judging by their form.

“I’m working on a lot of things,” Schwartzel said. “If you ask me how my game is I won’t lie to you, it’s pretty average.”

Julius Thomas edges closer to returning to lineup

Denver Broncos tight end Julius Thomas walks off the field during the first quarter of an NFL football game against the St. Louis Rams on Nov. 16.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.

(AP) — The Denver Broncos haven’t missed tight end Julius Thomas — until they reach the red zone.

The Broncos (9-3) have scored just six touchdowns on 15 trips inside the opponents’ 20-yard line since Thomas sprained his left ankle in the first quarter at St. Louis three weeks ago.

That 40 percent red zone efficiency pales in comparison to the 77 percent success rate (24 for 31) they had before Thomas got hurt.

“Julius is one of our top players and when you have one of your top players go out, you are going to miss him,” Peyton Manning said Wednesday. “We hope to get Julius back out there. There’s no question when he’s out there he makes a difference, he makes a lot of plays for us.”

Thomas leads the league with a dozen TD catches even though he hasn’t scored since Nov. 9. He was limited at practice Wednesday and hopes to return to action this weekend against the Buffalo Bills (7-5).

Last week at Kansas City, the Broncos settled

for five field goals from Connor Barth after stalling at Kansas City’s 4, 6, 11, 14 and 19.

“I’m looking forward to getting back,” Thomas said, “so maybe my presence can have us kicking a little bit less field goals.”

Manning called it unfair to blame Denver’s red zone woes solely on the absence of Thomas.

“I can’t point it there,” said Manning, who lamented his missed connections with Demaryius Thomas and Jacob Tamme last week when the Broncos scored on just one of six trips inside the 20 before a game-ending kneel-down at the 7.

“Every red zone opportunity has its own story,” Manning said. “Nobody wants to hear it. They just want to see if you got a touchdown or a field goal.

Some way, we’ve got to find a way — I’ve got to find a way — to help us get into the end zone with Julius or without him.”

Thomas’ return would add an intriguing challenge not only for the Bills but for the Broncos, who have had success emphasizing the run in Thomas’ absence.

Behind an O-line that’s jelling after a midseason

For Richardson, it’s different.

What he thought would be a long and successful career in Cleveland has been everything but what he expected. Things haven’t been the same since the Colts acquired him last year and now Richardson is looking for a breakout game this week against the team that drafted him — and traded him.

“They gave up on me,” Richardson said in a conference call with Browns media on Wednesday. “I’m going to go into this game like it’s my last.”

Richardson has struggled to move the ball in Indy, and the Colts have been criticized for the move and questioned for sticking with the former Alabama star.

Pagano made it clear the Colts plan to rely on Richardson as their starter.

“There’s going to be good days and there’s going to be bad days,” Pagano said.

“He’s had some days that have been very, very pro-

ductive and some tough days.”

Richardson totaled 12 yards on eight carries against Washington last week. He had 42 yards against Jacksonville the week before, and finished with zero yards on six carries against New England on Nov. 16.

Lack of productivity?

Richardson sees it more as defenses focused on him so much that he can’t get into a grove.

“You know what? People have just been stacking the box,” he said. “I haven’t been getting the looks that I was getting earlier in the season. Now that Ahmad (Bradshaw) is down, people are counting on me running the ball. I haven’t been getting all of the same looks as everybody else.”

Richardson says that sometimes defenses are thrown off when they think he’s going to run the ball, but Andrew Luck decides to pass instead.

“When it comes down to it, I want to say that I’ve been doing my job,” Richardson said. “Anytime I

Some Colts prepare for Cleveland homecoming

NDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Trent Richardson remembers the day he walked through the front doors of Cleveland’s training facility for the first time. He was wearing the suit he had on when the Browns called his name with the third pick in the 2012 draft.

Pat Shurmur, the head coach of the Browns at the time, met him at the door with a big smile on his face, Richardson recalled.

“It was one of those feelings that I didn’t think I would ever be playing with another team,” he said. “I thought I would always be there and it would be the last team I ever played for.

But it happened like it happened.”

The Colts acquired the running back from the Browns on Sept. 18, 2013, for a first-round draft pick — a move that Richardson said he was “shocked” by.

Now he and three other Colts players are headed to Cleveland this Sunday for a game against a team, and franchise, they know well.

Return specialist Josh

Cribbs, who joined the Colts last month as a free agent, signed with the Browns as an undrafted free agent in 2005. Safety Mike Adams played for the Browns for five seasons and D’Qwell Jackson was drafted by the team in 2006 before he suf fered two season-ending injuries.

Heck, Colts coach Chuck Pagano’s first four years in the league as an assistant were in Cleveland.

Cribbs left Cleveland after the 2012 season with a handful of records, including the all-time franchise leader in kickof f retur ns, kickof f retur n yards, and return touchdowns. Jackson is looking forward to the opportunity to face his for mer team, but says there won’t be any time to spend with friends and former teammates.

“I’m not going to change what I do,” Jackson said.

“In the offseason, if I go back, I’ll have dinner with some guys, but right now it’s a business trip and that’s the only thing that’s on my mind.”

shake-up, the insertion of third tackle Paul Cornick and the return of physical tight end Virgil Green, C.J. Anderson has run for 335 yards in back-to-back wins over Miami and Kansas City.

“C.J. has been awesome the past couple of weeks and it’s been awesome to watch,” Manning said.

If Thomas returns to the lineup, “I don’t really know how it’s going to change them,” Bills coach Doug Marrone said. “Obviously, they’ve got another great player coming back. They can do so many things.

They can hurt you so many ways. That’s a challenge and you have to be careful. If you try to take someone out or you try to take someone away, they have so much talent on that offense that they’ll exploit whatever weakness you have whether it’s by putting too many guys in the box or putting too many in coverage.”

The Broncos want Thomas on the field but they don’t want to take Green out — he was sorely missed in all three of Denver’s losses. The game plan was built around him as a fullback and a second tight end at Seattle in Week 3, but he sustained

a concussion on the first drive. His calf injury sidelined him at New England and St. Louis.

With Green back in the lineup, Denver has piled up 415 yards rushing the last two weeks.

Thomas said his return to action wouldn’t necessarily mean the Broncos will go back to throwing the ball more. “We’re going to go with whatever’s working well, and for us, we’ve been able to run that ball consistently well, and if that’s the case, we’ll continue to do that when I get back,” he said.

Green said he can’t venture a guess as to what happens upon Thomas’ return, but he knows one thing: “He’s a red zone nightmare.”

Notes: WR Demaryius Thomas (foot) and C Will Montgomery (knee) were limited Wednesday. ... Bills QB Kyle Orton didn’t want to reminisce about his time in Denver. Asked at the end of a five-minute conference call what comes to mind when he thinks about Denver, he replied, “The mountains,” then added “See ya,” and hung up.

Search is on for McIlroy’s contemporary rival

WINDERMERE, Fla. (AP) — Jordan Spieth took a big step in Australia for his confidence and career.

It was a mere baby step, however, toward being a legitimate rival to Rory McIlroy.

Then again, he’s in good company.

G o lf t hr i ves on g o o d rivalries, even if they are on e - s id ed , a nd m o s t of them are. That could be t h e c as e w i th Mc I lr o y , wh o a t 2 5 al r ea d y h as wo n f o ur m a jo r s. T i g er Woods, Jack Nicklaus and B o b b y J o n es w e r e t h e only other players to have that many majors at such a young age. Boy Wonder also has 14 wins around the world.

Even with that landslide win in th e Au s t r a l i a n Open, and with one of the gr eat closing r ounds of the year, Spieth still only has two victories.

That’s as many as Rickie Fowler.

And Jason Day. Patrick Reed has three victories. He can rightfully claim to be among the top five in the world, but only if he’s talking about five players in the same age group as McIlroy with the potential to challenge him over the next decade.

Rivalries aren’t restricted to age, of course. Nicklaus was 10 years younger than Arnold Palmer (and wo u n d u p w i n n in g 1 1 more majors). Tom Watso n wa s n in e y e a r s younger than Nicklaus.

T h e n e x t f ou r p l a y er s b e h i nd M cI l r o y i n t h e world ranking — Henrik S t e n so n , A d am S co tt , B u b ba Wat so n , S e rg i o Garcia — are all about a decade older.

Woods is in a league of his own. There remains p o t en t i al f o r a r i va l r y , though Woods is an old 39 b e ca u s e o f mo u n t in g i n ju r ie s . Wo o d s i s v er y much like Nicklaus, who had a r evolving door of rivalries throughout his career — Ernie Els, David D u v al , Ph i l M ic k e ls o n, Vijay Singh. There’s still t i m e t o ad d M cI l r o y t o that list.

A s g o l f wi n d s d o wn another season, one question for next year is which player in his 20s might emerge as a rival to McIlroy. “ T her e’ s a b u n ch o f y o u n g g u y s t h at c o ul d b r e ak t hr o u g h and b e co m e l e g en d s o f t h is ga me — R i ck i e F o wl er being one of them,” McIlr o y s ai d a f te r a fe w months ago after adding his second straight major.

“You just have to look at h o w h e’ s p l ay ed t h e majors this year.”

F ow l er j o i ne d Wo o ds and Nicklaus as the only players to finish in the top f i v e a t a l l f o u r ma j o rs , except that he didn’t win one. “ J o r d a n S p i et h i s a n o th e r, ” M cI l r o y s ai d . “ T h e r e ’ s a lo t o f g r e at , young players that will be playing in majors for the

next sort of 20, 25 years that can really make their mark on the game.”

Spieth deserved mention because he was 21 and in his second year. He had only one victory at t he t im e ( J oh n D eer e C la ssi c) , bu t he wen t down to the wire at the Masters and The Players Championship this year, after having the best rooki e cam p aig n o f an yo ne since Woods.

But it starts with winning.

N i cklau s an d P a lm er never went head-to-head as often as the greatness of their rivalry suggested.

N ickla us an d Wat so n clashed in three majors over a five-year stretch.

G r eg N o r m a n a n d N i ck Faldo took turns at No. 1, wit h N o r m an s pen di ng more time at the top and Faldo winning the showdowns in majors.

For all the rivals Woods had, Mickelson stands out w it h th e sec on d- bes t record in PGA Tour victories (42) and majors (five) Th er e is n ot a si ng le definition of a rivalry. You just know it when you see it.

Spieth was asked a few months ago what it would take for him (or Fowler) to become a true rival. He m en tion e d win nin g majors, before pausing to state the obvious.

“We need to win another TOURNAMENT first,” he said.

S o con side r t he A u s-

tralian Open a baby step.

Spieth moved up to No. 11 in the world, which felt a lot more than 10 spots in the ranking from McIlroy.

“I believe that I’m still far away because I believe that I have to win at least a major or two in order to at least start to significan tl y p r og r es s t o t ha t goal,” Spieth said.

McIlroy was runner -up in both of Fowler’s victories, in South Korea and at Quail Hollow. Fowler, h o wev er, h asn ’t w on i n two years, which led him t o sa y af ter t he P GA Championship that McIlroy was “definitely a step ahead of me — or two. Or four majors.”

Most intriguing about F ow le r i s th at h e a nd McIlroy have been competing against each other sin ce t he 20 07 Wa lk er Cup. McIlroy turned pro the next year, Fowler in 20 09. F or no w, th at ’ s where the similarities end.

“I definitely have some work to do, but there is a po ten t ia l of hi m a nd I being able to play against each other for a long time to come, both being the same age,” Fowler said. “ T her e’ s a lo t of g u y s under 30 in the top 50 in the world right now. So as far as Rory and I sticking out, I think Rory is kind of out on his own right now.

And we’ll see if a few of us can rack up some more wins.”

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: You mentioned in a recent column that few people write to follow up on what happened since their original letter was published. You printed mine April 1, 2001.

I am “Hurting in Houston,” the son who, with his partner, was suddenly no longer welcome in his parents’ home after they moved to a retirement community, because they were afraid their neighbors would shun them if they discovered they had a gay son. You advised that I should live my own life and, maybe, someday they would come around — and that is what I did.

After a number of years, I

received a call from a sibling informing me that my father was ill with only a short time left, and I should fly to their city to see him. I asked if I was wanted, and he said, “It doesn’t matter, just come!” So I swallowed my pride, flew there and made my way to the hospice house.

Although my mother received me well, Dad did not, and we never had a good moment before he died a few days later. I told my mother I was staying for the funeral whether she liked it or not and had my partner fly in.

After the service there was a gathering at my mother’s house with all their friends. I introduced my partner to them and everyone was as kind as could be. Many mentioned their own gay siblings or relatives.

When the event was over, my mother said, “Wow, this has all been pretty silly, hasn’t it?” It was such a colossal understatement that I could not find words to respond.

Ten years have passed; my

COMICS

mother is now in hospice care with only a short time left. We have built a great relationship, and she loves my partner of more than 20 years very much. We are glad to be able to be there for her.

Much has changed in the world over these years and the acceptance of gays has been remarkable, but for me, having these last years with my mother’s love will be a comfort I can hold onto for the rest of my life.

I have no great moral here, I just wanted to let you know what has happened. Thank you, Abby.

NO LONGER “HURTING IN HOUSTON”

DEAR NO LONGER HURTING: And thank YOU for letting me and my readers know your story has a happy ending. I couldn’t be more pleased to know you are doing well.

In case you didn’t see it, there was a follow-up column regarding your letter that was published May 24, 2001, in which a family in California offered to adopt you and

your partner! PFLAG (Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) was mentioned in that follow-up and is still an excellent resource for building bridges of understanding in families. Find it at pflag.org.

DEAR ABBY: I am the caregiver for my husband, who is in a wheelchair and has to be helped when using the bathroom. When we are out in public and he needs a bathroom, should I use the handicapped stall in the men’s or take him into the women’s? Unisex restrooms — one big room that can be locked — are wonderful.

CAREGIVER IN VIRGINIA DEAR CAREGIVER: I agree, but not all buildings and businesses provide unisex restrooms. If none is available, then the rule of thumb is the disabled person should use the restroom of his/her gender — in your case, the men’s room.

When the other cars’ windows are covered with ice and snow, mine are clear.

This is an old, classic Heloise hint. You want to mix either white or cider vinegar with water (a ratio of 3 parts vinegar to 1 part water) before using on car windows. This hint is one of many in my Heloise’s Fantabulous Vinegar Hints and More pamphlet. To order one, which includes some favorite recipes and other money-saving hints, please send $5 and a long, selfaddressed, stamped (70 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Vinegar, P.O.

When stuck at a loooong (yes, I spelled it loooong!) light, I figure, why waste that time? I dust a window or two, the control panel and any surface I can reach.

Dear Heloise: I have the solution for familyphotograph Christmas cards. I now have two trees — one traditional and the other with lights and only photographs cut to size.

Florist wire makes quick hangers, and you can put on enough lights so you can call it your “family tree.” It’s one-of-a-kind. I have been doing this for years, and during our open house, people spend more time looking at all the pictures than at my Nativity sets.

Catherine T., Conroe, Texas Dear Heloise: With our children off to college, my husband and I decided to sell our home and downsize.

Everything we wanted to keep would not fit in our new house.

So we rented a storage unit.

To keep boxes and furniture organized, we used differentcolor packing tape — red to storage and blue to the new home.

We tagged furniture with sticky notes of red or blue. We also organized the boxes in two separate areas.

The movers were grateful for our foresight, making their job easier. Also, it lessened the time to load and unload, so we had a lower-than-anticipated bill.

Theresa C., via email Dear Heloise: Don’t throw away your air mattress once it gets a hole in it and can’t be repaired. Cut it open on three sides, turn inside out and use it as a small tarp to cover outdoor items during winter.

Review: ‘Wild’ finds salvation in the woods JAKE COYLE AP FILM WRITER

Cheryl Strayed, as played by Reese Witherspoon in Jean-Marc Vallee’s “Wild,” is, bless the Lord, not an easily discernable type.

She’s also not the sort we’ve often encountered on the well-trod paths of female stereotypes in movies. Strayed is a bundle of messy imper fections, as we gradually lear n from flashbacks that accumulate throughout her therapeutic journey on the Pacific Crest Trail in “Wild.”

She’s a serial adulterer but no villain. (How many times have we seen that, in a woman, in our maledominated movies?) She’s curious, experimental and intrepid to the point of self-destruction. The same traits, though, may also be her salvation.

“I’m the girl that says ‘yes’ instead of ‘no,”’ she explains to a friend, with all the positive and negative implications of that statement abundantly clear.

Heavy with grief from the loss of her mother (Laura Dern) to cancer, haunted by remorse for

seven years of unfaithful marriage to her sensitive husband (Thomas Sadoski) and shaking off a dark turn into heroin, Strayed sets out to hike 1,100 miles up the coast, from the Mojave Desert to Oregon. She’s forcing selfrenewal not by fleeing her life but by confronting herself in isolation. When she wrestles to strap on her oversized backpack, she’s literally weighed down with baggage.

Her background isn’t neatly laid out before her hike begins (with scant preparation) in California.

But the film — adapted by Nick Hor nby from Strayed’s 2012 best-selling memoir — fills her journey with montages of memories. The scenes range from drugged-out heroin highs to tender moments with her mom, whose advice to “put yourself in the way of beauty” spurs Strayed’s trip. Dern, ever a force of warmth, glows.

On the trail, every encounter holds the threat of danger for a woman alone in the woods, though almost everyone turns out quite chummy.

Much has already been

Yet she still possesses an always-incontrol fortitude that perhaps makes her a less than ideal fit for the looser Strayed. Of Witherspoon’s many fine attrib-

flashbacks come in chunks or just a flash of imagery without sound, triggered by a smell or a song.

The hardest thing to get past in “Wild” — and this is a problem some have had since Thoreau — is that a much-documented solitude can’t help but seem artificially conceived. (Strayed isn’t seen writing in the film, but she does briefly express her literary hopes of being published in Harper’s, and she leaves cheesy quotes along the trail).

Such tales come with a prerequisite arc of salvation, the journeys seeming as much for the sake of a book or a movie as genuine reflection.

“Wild” is ultimately unique for its twist, even if it comes by an unfortunately intrusive narration.

Strayed’s rocky past does not need an apology if it gets her where she’s going.

“Wild,” a Fox Searchlight release, is rated R by the Motion Picture Association of America for “sexual content, nudity, drug use and language.” Running time: 115 minutes.
