Suspect described plot before Miranda BOSTON (AP) — The surviving suspect in the Boston Marathon bombings acknowledged to the FBI his role in the attacks but did so before he was advised of his constitutional rights to keep quiet and seek a lawyer, officials said Wednesday.

It is unclear whether those statements before the Miranda rights war ning would be admissible in a criminal trial and, if not, whether prosecutors even need them to win a conviction. Officials said physical evidence, including a 9 mm handgun and pieces of a remote-control device com-

The suspect, Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, told authorities that his older brother, Tamerlan Tsar naev, 26, only recently recruited him to be part of the attack, two U.S. officials said. The CIA, however, named Tamerlan to a terrorist database 18 months ago, officials said Wednesday, an acknowledgment that will undoubtedly prompt congressional inquiry about whether investigators took warnings from Russian intelligence officials seriously enough.

The U.S. of ficials who spoke to The Associated

Press were close to the investigation but insisted on anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case with reporters.

Tamerlan, whom authorities have described as the driving force behind the plot, was killed in a shootout with police.

Dzhokhar is recovering in a hospital from injuries sustained during a getaway attempt.

Authorities had previously said Dzhokhar exchanged gunfire with See BOSTON, Page A3

The Roswell Police Department enlisted the help of Animal Control Wednesday afternoon, after three llamas escaped from a local ranch. The three gathered in a field in the 1900 block of West Country Club Road. It was other duties as assigned for both city and county Animal Control officers as they attempted to herd the creatures to the nearest fenced-in area, but the llamas were having none of it, preferring to stay in a field of recently sprouted hay. Then the goal for Animal Services was to keep them out of the street. The llamas’ owners showed up 45 minutes later. Here, the llamas chew another mouthful of tender hay and pose for the camera.

ARC of NM, Center for Self Advocacy hold conference

SANTA FE (AP) — An independent think tank wants New Mexico’s political parties to adopt rules allowing unaffiliated voters to participate in primary elections.

Think New Mexico Executive Director Fred Nathan made the request in a letter Wednesday to leaders of the Democratic and Republican parties.

Nathan contends election turnout will increase if independent voters, who are unaffiliated with a political party, can cast ballots in 2014 primary contests. About 18 percent of the state’s registered voters are independents, including Nathan.

He said open primaries also will “decrease the polarization of candidates in both parties” because more voters will have a voice in selecting candidates who are the party nominees.

“As you know, many New Mexico elections are essentially decided during the primary, so opening the primaries to more voters will ultimately result in elected officials who represent the perspectives of more of their constituents,” Nathan wrote.

GOP Chairman John Billingsley said the request will be reviewed but “the idea of open primaries allows for outside groups to organize and disrupt the party’s primary process.”

Democratic Party Executive Director Scott Forrester said the proposal will be considered over the next year. It would need to gain the support of a party committee and then be submitted for possible approval at a state convention next spring.

Crime Stoppers, Neighborhood Watch address United Way board JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The board of United Way of Chaves County hosted Crime Stoppers and Neighborhood Watch at their meeting at the Boys & Girls Club, Wednesday. The purpose of the talk was to discuss safety in Chaves County.

President of Crime Stoppers and Neighborhood Watch advisor Steve Wolfe said that Roswell has a

total of 90 Neighborhood Watch groups, some more active than others. He pointed out that law enforcement resources are stretched and emphasized that all citizens have a part to play in crime prevention.

“It’s a program for the community.”

Wolfe gave a brief history of Chaves County Crime Stoppers which was founded in the 1980s and became a 501(c)3 in 1991.

The CCCS program had

languished, but has found new life in the past 3 years.

“Since November 2010, we have given out $10,050 in rewards.”

He said they contracted a call center in LaPorte, Texas, to ensure not only the safety, but the anonymity of their callers.

“We don’t want people to worry that someone might recognize their voice.”

Crime Stoppers hopes in the future to provide a means by which callers

might text or email.

Roswell Police Department Public Information Liaison Sabrina Morales described the upcoming public access website where people can pick up accident and other reports online. Currently dubbed P2C (police to community), the goal is to have it up and running in the next few weeks.

Wolfe also encouraged people to take advantage of the Prescription Take-back

program from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, at the Historic Conoco Building, 426 N. Main St.

NM grapples with tough choices as drought persists

AP Photo

A trickle of water left in the Rio Grande is pushed downstream by the wind near the chile growing community of Hatch, March 19. The mighty Rio Grande has gone dry, and farmers are worried about dwindling water supplies as the state enters its third straight year of drought.

HATCH (AP) — In southern New Mexico, the mighty Rio Grande has gone dry — reduced to a sandy wash winding from this chile farming community to the nation’s leading pecan-producing county. Only puddles remain, leaving gangs of carp to huddle together in a desperate ef fort to avoid the fate of thousands of freshwater clams, their shells empty and broken on the river bottom.

Across the state’s eastern plains, wells stand empty and ranchers are selling their cattle. In the north, urbanites face watering restrictions while rural residents see the levels of their springs dropping more every day.

Going on three years,

drought has had a hold on nearly every square mile of New Mexico. Now, with forecasts predicting hotter, drier weather ahead, farmers and small and large communities alike are questioning whether dwindling supplies can be stretched enough to avoid costly fights over water.

From the chile fields and pecan orchards of the Hatch and Mesilla valleys to Albuquerque, Santa Fe and beyond, New Mexicans are facing tough choices and dire consequences.

“Last year my son said, ‘Mom, what do we let die?

The hay, the wheat, the onions or the chile?’” said Rena Carson, whose family owns a chile-drying plant and spice company in the

Burglars busy on S. Union South Union Avenue has been subjected to a rash of crimes. The area from the 3000 block to the 3400 block has been hit by burglars five times in the past 10 days.

On April 12, a resident reported $2,000 worth of items stolen. Two days later, another residence was broken into and $2,015 taken. On April 17, more than $400 worth of tools were removed from a shop.

One place was hit twice. On April 18, subjects removed five air conditioners from a locked shed. On Monday, subjects kicked in the back door of the residence and reportedly took $22,789 worth of items.

Total losses for the neighborhood are estimated at nearly $27,000.

Items ranged from clothing, personal documen-

tation, a children’s bike to electronics — such as cell phones, computers, televisions and games consoles. In each incident, damages were also reported when the culprits gained access to the buildings. Locks were cut or doors kicked in.

The Roswell Police Department urges people to stay alert and contact the RPD if they see any suspicious activities.

Officers have placed the neighborhood on close patrol.

RPD spokeswoman Sabrina Morales recommended to cut down on crime: “Introduce yourself to your neighbors, or contact Steve Wolfe and start a Neighborhood Watch program.”

The Neighborhood Watch number is 6224014.

Perps pry door, lift electronics •Police were dispatched to the 200 block of North Kansas Avenue, Tuesday, after subjects gained entry into a residence by prying open the door. A laptop, a 500 gigabyte external hard drive, a Blu-Ray player, DVDs and some jewelry were reported missing.

•Police received a report of vehicle burglary, Wednesday, from a Dexter man. The incident took place in the 100 block of East 19th Street. He told officials that a clipboard,

an undisclosed amount of cash and a phone charger had been removed from the vehicle.

Hatch Valley and ships tons of products around the world annually.

In the last two years, the family has drilled two new wells to draw more irrigation water, but the groundwater level in the valley continues to drop — and the wells can’t be drilled any deeper. This year, the family had to let 20 of their 800 acres go uncultivated.

Throughout these valleys, patches of farmland that should be verdant are brown and sit idle. Some pecan growers have trimmed trees to their trunks to save on watering.

Others are drilling new wells and installing pipelines to make the most of every drop pumped.

Some are sharing water and splitting the costs of pumping with neighboring farmers, or buying up land for the water rights.

Pecan growers rely mostly on wells to irrigate. Without a flowing river, the aquifers that feed the wells have little chance of being recharged.

“When that river is flowing, everything is fine,” said Dickie Salopek, whose family has hundreds of acres of pecan trees in Dona Ana County, the top pecan-producing county in the U.S. “When it’s not flowing, you better be thinking outside the box.”

New Mexico produces more than 60 million pounds of pecans annually, while its world-famous chiles infuse an estimated $300 million into the economy each year.

Roswell Daily Record

In Hatch, the self-proclaimed “Chile Capital of the World,” drinking water wells have dropped and the Pepper Pot restaurant is charging for tap water.

“WATER ... .50,” reads a note on a menu advertising enchiladas and tacos smothered with chile. Town officials worry about finding new sources of water for the area’s chile farms.

Without them, said former town trustee Andy Nunez, the village would wither.

“That’s what we’re afraid of,” he said.

Across the easter n plains, the story is the same. Wells that provide drinking water are going dry, ranchers have been forced to sell off cattle, hay prices have skyrocketed, and reservoirs have reached record low levels — leaving little surface water for downstream users.

“We are really facing some extraordinary challenges,” said Dennis McQuillan with the state Drinking Water Bureau. He pointed to residential wells outside of Santa Fe that are going dry and the potential for the city of Clovis to drain its aquifer in the next 20-40 years.

Most rural communities have robust wells, but members of the New Mexico Rural Water Association said water levels have been drawn down and that the drought and effects of wildfires are complicating their ability to keep some reservoirs full.

“The drought is a slowly building disaster,” said

Matt Holmes, the association’s executive director.

In southeaster n New Mexico, farmers in Carlsbad are demanding that groundwater users in Roswell and Artesia stop pumping in order to protect their rights to water in the Pecos River. A similar fight is happening on the Rio Grande, with Texas asking the U.S. Supreme Court to keep New Mexico from pumping and to force the state to send more water to farmers in El Paso.

In northeaster n New Mexico, the spring that feeds rural Wagon Mound is dropping. Village officials worked with the state to develop a plan to keep the spring flowing, something McQuillan said could be a model as many of the state’s 1,200-plus water systems consider revamping their water protection plans to make infrastructure improvements or find alternative water sources.

The dismal conditions of 2011 and 2012 made for the war mest and driest two-year period in New Mexico since forecasters began keeping track more than a century ago. Last year marked the seconddriest year on record, with precipitation at 60 percent of nor mal. Snowpack in some places was half of normal heading into spring, leaving little hope that mountain moisture will reach the Rio Grande or other waterways.

Much of the U.S. faces persistent drought conditions, as well.

Albuquerque known for prostitution.

A follow-up post from Kush’s account said the woman was “hot enough to almost make me register democrat.”

A statement from Ber nalillo County GOP Chair Frank Ruvolo on Wednesday afternoon said Kush had been suspended without pay indefinitely for his “insensitive remarks.”

Kush then issued a formal apology, saying the remarks on his personal Facebook page “were both insensitive and inappropriate. I regret my now obvious ill-fated attempt at humor.”

Cornelius apologized on Facebook and to the woman personally. Cornelius said he was not at the meeting and did not know Evans, but that he had reached out to her first thing Wednesday morning and apologized for what he called inappropriate, unfair and

degrading comments.

“I’ve been thinking about my comment last night. I did make that comment in jest & I do apologize to this lady for this off color comment,” the updated post reads.

“It’s not fair to her, and it was inappropriate for me to makes comments like that.”

The exchanges were circulated Wednesday morning by the liberal-leaning ProgressNow, which criticized the GOP for attacking hard-working women.

“If the Republican Party wants to know why they have such a hard time connecting with young women, they should start by examining the very public way their leaders feel about young working women,” Pat Davis, executive director of ProgressNow New Mexico, said in a press release. “Mr. Kush, Mr. Cor nelius and the Republican Party owe these particular women an apology as public as

Models from the National Climatic Data Center show it would take more than a foot of rain over the next six months to end drought conditions in parts of the state. However, forecasts show no significant moisture on the horizon.

Albuquerque and other cities already have imposed restrictions limiting the days and times at which residents may water outdoors. And in the Hatch and Mesilla valleys, leveling far mland and orchards with lasers has become the norm to ensure water does not pool and go to waste.

Pecan grower Greg Daviet is changing his watering schedule to irrigate trees when their roots are primed to absorb the most moisture. He’s also testing a new sensor that monitors soil moisture at different depths.

Unlike chile, onions, alfalfa and cotton, pecan trees can’t go a year without water. They will die and take with them generations of cultivation and investment. Some New Mexico orchards are more than 70 years old.

“We have to farm them whether the resources are easy to get or not,” Daviet said. “It hurts right now, but it will get better. It’s been wet before. It’s been dry before. It will be both again, and there’s not a whole lot I can do about it anyway.”

NM GOP leader suspended for social media exchange ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The executive director of the Bernalillo County GOP was suspended Wednesday for making inappropriate social media comments about women testifying for a minimum wage hike.

During a Tuesday night Bernalillo County commission meeting, a Twitter comment from the account of Ber nalillo County Republican Party Executive Director Steve Kush referred to a volunteer who was testifying on behalf of Working America as a “radical (expletive).”

Then, as that same group’s director, Chelsey Evans, waited to testify, there was a comment from Kush’s Facebook account that said, “Uh oh another Working America chick...nice boots.”

the forum where they chose to attack them.”

State GOP Chair man John Billingsley issued an apology to the women individually, and “to the women of New Mexico.”

Evans said she was disappointed by the attacks.

“Comments like those have no place in public discourse,” she said in an email.

“Despite these degrading comments,” she wrote, “we are focused on celebrating a victory in Bernalillo County for all of working families, and we applaud all the hard work by our members, organizers and activists, and we will continue to push this effort statewide.”

The commission voted 3-2 to raise the minimum wage in the county’s unincorporated areas to $8.50 an hour, matching the wage approved by Albuquerque voters in November.

Self-advocate Cynthia Berkheimer attests to how important it is that a disability does not define a person and that he or she still deserves respect.

“We’re no different from anyone else,” Berkheimer said. “We have feelings and we have rights.”

The organization’s motto, “Nothing about us without us,” is a fighting statement to push for a person’s involvement in meetings that concern his or her future.

More than 127 attended the conference, and sessions covered everything from an occupational training program at Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell, to a group of high school students with a club to spread awareness, to personal testimonies to promote the acceptance of differences.

Under pressure from Congress, however, the Department of Justice has said investigators may wait until they have gathered intelligence about other threats before reading those rights in terrorism cases. The American Civil Liberties Union has expressed concern about that.

Regardless, investigators have found pieces of remote-control equipment among the debris and were analyzing them, officials said. One official described the detonator as “closecontrolled,” meaning it had to be triggered within several blocks of the bombs.

Authority officer, two U.S. officials said.

The officials told the AP that no gun was found in the boat. Boston police Commissioner Ed Davis said earlier that shots were fired from inside the boat.

Asked whether the suspect had a gun in the boat, Davis said, “I’m not going to talk about that.”

Kurt Schwartz, director of the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency, did respond to the report.

“Within half a mile of where this person was captured, a police officer was shot. And I know who shot him.” Schwartz said. “And there were three bombs that went off, and I know where those bombs came from. ... To me, it does not change anything.

say Jacobs, Seth Lujan, Sarah Luschei and Mireya Esnayder traveled from Las Cruces to talk about their club’s initiative to stop the use of the “R” word, complete with shirts declaring, “Spread the Word to Stop the Word.”

“Last year every day I heard people use the word ‘retard’ or ‘retarded,’ and I thought you know, no, this has to stop,” Tomlin said. “Back in the 1960s and 1970s I guess it was OK because it was a medical ter m. But today, this is now, and everyone uses that just because they try to be funny and make it as a racist joke.”

Using activities that include everyone, those with and without disabilities, such as the Harlem Shake or a softball game, the Advocates in Action club has gotten more than 1,000 signatures to say they will put an end to the use of the “R” word and also raised $1,800 for the March of Dimes.

“Students speaking out can be a powerful influence for change,” Jacobs said.

Another speaker, Roel Adamson, spoke about the importance of embracing diversity and overcoming life’s obsta-

cles.

One of the hardest aspects of having a disability is overcoming others’ reactions and behaviors.

“When talking to someone who has a disability, speak normally,” Adamson said. “Shouting, baby-talking and talking to a person with a disability as if they were stupid reveals the speaker’s level of ignorance. For example, people have shared with me that they will try to compensate for their discomfort of my disability by changing their own speech. However, it gives me a headache when they shout, it makes me laugh at them when they baby talk, and when they treat me like I am stupid, I get frustrated. Then I must try to show who I am not.

So instead of getting to know me, I am trying to prove to them who I am not: not deaf, not a baby, not dumb.”

The conference brought together people who want to be self-advocates along with people already selfadvocating.

“You may not have a disability, but each of us has abilities on which we can build to not only improve our lives but the lives of those around us,” Adamson said.

Shelbie Allen of New Mexico Legal introduced the group to a new statewide initiative run by the Attor ney General’s Office, the Homeownership Preservation Program, which is designed to help people keep their homes.

Thursday, April 25, 2013 In Russia, U.S. investigators traveled to the predominantly Muslim province of Dagestan and were in contact with the brothers’ parents, hoping to gain more information.

Investigators are looking into whether Tamerlan, who spent six months in Russia’s turbulent Caucasus region in 2012, was influenced by the religious extremists who have waged an insurgency against

Russian forces in the area for years. The brothers have roots in Dagestan and neighboring Chechnya but had lived in the U.S. for about a decade.

Santa Fe Opera selects new chief conductor SANTA FE (AP) — The Santa Fe Opera has selected British conductor Harry Bicket to become its chief conductor.

Opera General Director Charles MacKay said Wednesday that Bicket’s appointment takes effect in October and he will conduct a per for mance of Beethoven’s “Fidelio” in the

summer of 2014.

Bicket was born in England and educated at Oxford. He became artistic director of the English Concert in 2007, and will continue in that position.

MacKay described Bicket as “one of the most important and sought-after conductors working today.”

Bicket currently is con-

ducting performances at the Metropolitan Opera of Handel’s “Giulio Cesare.”

The Santa Fe Opera’s season runs from June until late August.

Opera chief conductor Frederic Chaslin resigned last year to focus on composing and because of his concert and recording schedule.

Public lands maps organize knowledge A4 Thursday, April 25, 2013

OPINION

BY HAROLD MORGAN NEW MEXICO PROGRESS

Map geeks live in Albuquerque’s North Valley. Their home is a modest suite in an even more modest one-story brown stucco office building on North Fourth Street.

Even the sign for the Public Lands Interpretive Association is modest.

Fourth Street is commonly thought to be the route of El Camino Real, or Chihuahua Trail, that connected Mexico with Ohkay Owingeh pueblo, north of Española. An Albuquerque planning document corrects that “misperception,” reporting that El Camino Real had two routes through the North Valley, neither of them Fourth Street.

Maps organize knowledge, which is a great human achievement.

Getting things right—eventually— is what maps are for, after all, urban mythology to the contrary.

The “geek” label may be unfair.

Still, that was the impression. The

website, publiclands.org, is thorough, almost daunting. The products are resolutely paper.

My family involvement in mining may explain liking maps. Mapping mineral deposits is essential. Three dimensional mapping comes with today’s computing power.

Global positioning system, Wikipedia explains, is “a spacebased satellite navigation system that provides location and time information in all weather conditions, anywhere on or near the Earth where there is an unobstructed line of sight to four or more GPS satellites. ... A geograph-

ic information system (GIS)… is the merging of cartography (mapping), statistical analysis, and database technology.”

GIS and GPS have settled into our intellectual background and our cars as the technology and the organizing of knowledge has moved forward.

We first found the association’s maps at another place of nirvana for information and often beautifully printed things having to do with land—the bookstore at the New Mexico Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources on the campus of New Mexico Tech in Socorro.

Poking around one day a couple of years ago, we found a set of six maps showing about everything there is to show about public lands in the state and much information about the rest of the land. The maps are large—21 inches by 39 inches—which allows detail. Few maps, I suggest, show the Alamogordo Valley and Alamogordo

Roswell Daily Record

Creek, which are a little way south I-40 in the Cuervo and Newkirk vicinity and a long way from Alamogordo. Nor do many maps show reservation roads and the locations of chapter houses.

The maps wonderfully organize knowledge about New Mexico. This service is valuable because our people relate to the land in fundamental ways that while differing from group to group, in sum, define the Land of Enchantment.

At $6.95, the maps aren’t cheap.

But you get what you pay for. The maps were finished in 2010. The title is modest, “Recreational Map of New Mexico.” Then, on the front of the map, is a claim that rings completely true: “The most comprehensive recreational map to the Public Lands of New Mexico.”

Complete with a GPS grid.

The Association’s income is from operating campgrounds, being the customer service contact for the Valles Caldera National Preserve

near Los Alamos, and running bookstores at Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Fish and Wildlife Service facilities in Oklahoma, New Mexico and Arizona.

As a not-for-profit entity, the association describes profit as “net revenues.” Whatever the label, the money goes to the interpretive and educational efforts. “Interpretive associations” have a legal definition and date to the early days of the National Park Service.

The Public Lands Interpretive Association plays a role beyond maps, interpretation and education, thanks to the Internet, I suppose. From the modest North Fourth headquarters, it is a window on the world for New Mexico and the West. That makes the association one of those pockets of excellence we keep forgetting.

Elder abuse needs close monitoring

One reason criminal law exists is to protect the weak and defenseless. A lot of those efforts over the years have centered on child abuse, something currently in the spotlight since April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month.

However, there’s a growing problem on the other end of the life cycle — elder abuse, defined by the U.S. Department of Justice as “intentional actions by a caregiver or other trusted individual that causes harm to an older adult.”

Such actions can include physical, emotional or sexual abuse, neglect or financial exploitation.

According to a Department of Justice study, 11 percent of older people who responded to a 2009 phone survey reported being abused in some way. About 5.2 percent said they had been taken advantage of financially by a relative in the previous year.

About 4.6 percent of those over age 60 said they had been emotionally mistreated during the same time frame. Only 8 percent of those folks reported that mistreatment to authorities; and the study estimated that for every abuse case that is reported, five aren’t.

To some, those won’t seem like huge numbers; to us, anything greater than zero is unacceptable.

The cases are heart-rending and they typically don’t involve strangers, either.

According to a study by the National Center on Elder Abuse, roughly 90 percent of abusers are family members.

The average life span in the U.S. has grown by six years since 1980, according to a report last year by the Office of Management and Budget, so there are more elderly people in this country. Many are remaining vital and active longer; others, unfortunately, are not.

In either case, they don’t deserve to be abused or have their pockets picked.

DEAR DOCTOR K: I’m a woman in my 30s, and I’ve never had an abnormal Pap test. Do I still need one every year?

DEAR READER: The answer used to be yes. This helped ensure that you had regular Pap tests to screen for cervical cancer.

But new guidelines recommend less frequent Pap tests for younger women, and no Pap tests for many older women.

The new guidelines, issued in 2012, revised the recommendations for cervical cancer screening. They suggest that women ages 21 to 65 have a Pap test every three years or, for women ages 30 to 65 who want to lengthen the screening interval, have a combination Pap test and human papillomavirus (HPV) test only once every five years. (Most cervical cancers are caused by specific types of HPV, a sexually transmitted virus.)

In addition, most women ages 65 and older and women who have had a hysterectomy (and no longer have a cervix) do

I wrote recently how teachers unions, parent-teacher associations and school bureaucrats form an education “Blob” that makes it hard to improve schools. They also take revenge on those who work around the Blob.

Here’s one more sad example: Ben Chavis, founder and principal of the American Indian Public Charter Schools, got permission to compete with the Blob in Oakland, Calif.

Chavis vowed, “We’ll outperform the other schools in five years.” He did. Kids at the three schools he runs now

have some of the highest test scores in California.

His schools excel even though the gover nment spends less on them.

But Chavis paid his wife to do accounting work, rented property to his schools and didn’t follow all of the Blob’s

ASK DR. K UNITED MEDIA SYNDICATE

not need to have Pap tests. The exceptions are women with a history of precancerous cells, cervical cancer or abnor mal Pap/HPV tests.

The new recommendations stem from a better understanding of how cervical cancer develops. It doesn’t develop very rapidly. Rather, there are clear precancerous stages that take years to progress.

What’s the downside of an annual Pap test? For young women in particular, frequent Pap tests can lead to false positive

rules. So last month, the Oakland School Board said it might close the schools.

Parents and students begged the Blob — pardon me, the school board — not to.

One sobbing mother pleaded with the board: “As soon as (my son) goes to this school, he’s a top student. ... And now you guys want to take that away from me.” Many students implored, “Please don’t close down our school!”

The school board voted to close the schools anyway.

The students will now probably have to go to Oakland’s gover nment-run schools,

results (the test result suggests a possible cancer, but there really is no cancer). That false positive result can lead to unnecessary worry and anxiety. It also can lead to further, and invasive, diagnostic tests such as a colposcopy and biopsy of the cervix.

These invasive diagnostic tests, in turn, can cause vaginal bleeding, infections and pain.

And, less often, the Pap test and HPV test can produce false negative results (the test result is normal, but there really is a cancer).

For cervical cancer and many other cancers, our screening tests are not perfect.

With a perfect test, every time it came back abnormal there would really be a cancer — and that would justify additional invasive diagnostic tests. And with a perfect test, every time it came back normal you could know for sure that you were free of that cancer.

If there were a perfect test, of course you

which are not as good. We asked to talk to members of the Oakland School Board, but they refused.

Chavis, though, explained how working with his wife and renting space to the schools — regarded by the board as too incestuous — saved government money.

“Yes. Some of the money did go to me,” he told me. “Someone had to step up and get space. We had 34 kids when I started. Today, we have 1,200.”

And those kids got a better

would want to have it periodically. But if the test were imperfect, and could cause you complications, you’d want to have it when it was more likely to benefit you than to harm you.

So recommendations as to how often a woman should have a Pap test are based on what studies show are the risks of a false positive or false negative result, and how likely cervical cancer is in the person having the test. For example, cervical cancer is less common in young women than in women in their late 50s.

The bottom line: You still need the Pap (and the HPV) test, but not as often as you did in the past.

What constitutes euthanasia

Dear Editor, It has come to my attention that a horse slaughter facility plans to open as soon as April by owner Rick De La Santos, of Valley Meat Co. in Roswell. I have some knowledge on horse slaughter houses and I happen to know that horse meat can be harmful to consumption. The chemicals and medicines in wormers, medications, and even fly sprays are labeled “not for consumption.”

Phenylbutazone otherwise known as “bute” is a pain and inflammatory medicine. Bute is a drug banned from any human consumption. It is not only banned in the U.S. but Europe as well where horses are commonly considered food to humans and in some countries considered delicates. A horse can never be slaughtered for consumption in Europe if it has been given bute. Different types of American horses are commonly given bute, which then are slaughtered and shipped to Mexico and Europe where it is illegal to consume horse meat from a horse who has received bute. The Roswell Daily Record also states in the same article Horse Slaughter Video Sparks Outrage “In the video Sappington is seen taking a horse he purchased for slaughter and shooting it...” Who is to know if this horse he purchased which was intended for slaughter has had bute in its lifetime? The previous owner might now be aware the horse was being sold for consumption and given it bute prior. Or on another circumstance the previous owner might not have known if the horse was given bute.

Horse owners often worm their horse six months out of the year. If the horse was wormed and sent to a slaughter facility, the consumers would then be consuming chemicals. On the other hand if an owner refuses to worm their horse, the horse will get worms.

Imagine yourself as a human being who plans to consume horse meat. What would you rather consume, horse meat with worms, or horse meat with chemicals that can harm your body? Both are disgusting offers.

Phenylbutazone has been used in humans to treat arthritis but disallowed in 1949, because of toxic reactions humans get from this drug.

Mr. Tim Sappington is an employee of Rick De La Santos, president and owner of the company. It was brought to my attention March 22 in The Roswell Daily Record that Mr. Sappington has murdered a beautiful, defenseless, and unaware horse on a gruesome video. His behavior should not be tolerated and he should be charged with animal cruelty with his inhumane acts. The reason of murder was apparent in this video. The horse was not killed for consumption although it may be consumed, but it was killed because Mr. Sappington was unhappy and seemingly threatened with animal activists trying to shut down on his and the company’s plans of the Horse Slaughter Facility in Roswell. His anger was obvious with the heartless act, and harsh language. The company said the fol-

lowing statement in the Roswell Daily Record and I quote, “We have seen the video showing Mr. Sappington euthanizing a horse for slaughter...” To those who have seen the video, who can say this was a simple euthanasia? Euthanasia is in most circumstances intended to put an animal out of suffering and is supposed to be humane. This video is in no way a humane circumstance but is nothing but cruelty.

Lacy N. Corman Horse slaughter Dear Mr. Editor,

For several years there have been heated debates over the possibility of opening a horse slaughtering plant in New Mexico. Now, the burning issue has appeared once again. This issue has always outraged me, because I strongly believe in the humane care of animals.

In 2007, the plants were banned and thankfully, they became a thing of the past.

Decent people should be outraged at the idea of resuming domestic horse slaughter, as am I. Thankfully, Gov. Martinez is among the opponents of the idea.

Ragland completes training; Johnson, bachelor of science degree

Yes, the slaughter plant will create a few jobs in this time of distress our economy is facing, but not the kind of jobs anyone should want. The owner will reap profit and pay minimum wages to a death squad of employees assigned to shoot bolts into horses’ heads.

A 2011 report from the federal government accountability office has stated that horse abandonment and abuse has increased substantially since Congress effectively banned horse slaughtering by issuing a funding cut for the USDA inspection program in 2006. I believe this dramatic increase is far from a coincidence. Now, the USDA has approved the request for locating a slaughtering facility in Roswell. I am appalled. Soulless, heartless humans who choose to make their money by slaughtering horses have managed to persuade our government to assist in doing their bidding.

Where have our beliefs in morality gone?

The connection between animal abuse and violence against humans is a well-documented fact. Isn’t this simply about money, the root of all evil?

In my opinion, the approval of opening this horse slaughtering plant in Roswell, permanently documents a cascading downward spiral of the moral values of the human race.

education for less tax money. Who cares if Chavis kept some?

The Blob cares. The school board will get about $10 million back if they are no longer obliged to send pupils to Chavis’ schools.

They’ll be hard-pressed to beat Chavis’ academic results, though. U.S. News & World Report says his schools are No. 1 in Oakland. The Washington Post this month said American Indian is No. 1 on the list of most challenging high schools in America. Over the past three years, 100 percent of Chavis’ high school seniors were accepted to four-year colleges.

By contrast, in New York City, where I live, a third of high school students don’t even graduate in four years.

Chavis says that if the board thinks he stole money, they should arrest him instead of shutting down his schools.

“If I did steal anything ... punish me.

Don’t punish the students.”

And while options for kids in Oakland shrink, the Blob grows.

Over the past six decades, as the number of students in public schools doubled, the Friedman Foundation reports that the number of non-teaching staff got eight times as large. Non-teaching staff means assistant principals, associate principals, secretaries, social workers, etc. Twenty-one states now have more school administrators than teachers.

Despite all that new staff, test scores stayed flat.

At least there are a few signs of hope.

Remember the union protests at the Wisconsin state capitol two years ago?

The union there eventually lost its fight to stop Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker from limiting collective bargaining. Now they can bargain over pay but little else.

Contracts negotiations that used to take years are sometimes resolved in 15 minutes.

Union membership is no longer automatic but has to be renewed annually by individual members, voluntarily. The result: Teachers unions lost about a third of their members.

I expected that but had no idea that some of the savings in Wisconsin would come from ending the union’s monopoly on health insurance. The union had demanded that its members buy insurance from a company the union created.

Allowing other insurers to compete lowered insurance costs so much that Wisconsin has saved tens of millions of dollars.

Good for Scott Walker. Less money for the Blob means more money, and freedom, for the rest of us.

DID YOU KNOW? IT’S NATIONAL PARK WEEK PINE SPRINGS, Texas— Guadalupe Mountains National Park Superintendent Dennis A. Vasquez invites everyone to get to know their Guadalupe Mountain National Park, one of 401 units of the National Park System nationwide, National Park Week. This year’s dates are April 20-28, with free admission to all national parks, including Guadalupe Moun-

tains National Park, on April 22-26. However, normal campground use fees still apply. “This year’s theme, ‘Did you know…’ provides a fun way to discover the wonders of America’s national parks,” said National Park Service Director Jonathan B. Jarvis. “For example, did you know that there are national parks in all 50 states? Did you know that national parks include

seashores, battlefields, and historic homes? Did you know that you probably live within an hour or two of a national park? National Park Week is a great time for all Americans to visit a nearby national park to camp and hike, watch wildlife, stroll a Civil War battlefield, and connect with our heritage and each other.”

APRIL IS NATIONAL CHILD ABUSE PREVENTION MONTH

Remember to be kind and gentle with your children, they are precious. Be patient, they are still learning. Play with them—enjoy them. They are only small for a little while.

Discipline your child fairly, firmly and with love; never when you are angry. It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken

adults.

Every day children in our communities are being abused and neglected. Protecting children is everyone’s job. If you know or suspect that a child is being abused or neglected please call the Statewide Central Intake line at 1-800-797-3260 to report.

POR TALES — Funeral services for Buck L. Wilson, 97, currently of Roswell, will be at 11 a.m., Saturday, April 27, 2013, at Central Christian Church, with Kenneth Broad officiating, assisted by Don Thomas.

Burial will follow in Portales Cemetery, with Carl J. Foley Jr., Robbie Cranford, Robert N. Isbell, Boaz E. Easley, Brent H. Wilson,

Grant L. Wilson, John Bridges and Sammy Ellison serving as pallbearers.

Buck W. Easley, Kevin W. Wilson, his great-grandsons and all of his railroad buddies will be honorary pallbearers.

Buck L. Wilson was born Oct. 26, 1915, in Council Bluffs, Iowa, to the home of Daisy (Keenan) and Manzo Harvey Wilson, and died in Roswell on April 22, 2013.

Mr. Wilson was orphaned, and lived in an orphanage in Council Bluffs for about two years, before he and another young man left to make their way in the world. They were in New Orleans when a ship’s captain of fered them jobs.

They worked aboard ship and sailed around the Horn, and ended up on the West Coast. From there they worked their way up to Alaska and back, taking jobs along the way. He eventually ended up in Fairview, Okla.

It was in Fairview that he met Miss Josie Chaloupek, and they were married on May 16, 1936. About 1940, Mr. Wilson went to work on the railroad, and in 1942 took a job with the Santa Fe Railroad. He moved to Belen at that time and lived there several years before being transferred to Clovis.

In 1977, he moved to Portales. Mr. Wilson retired after more than 40 years as an engineer.

He was a faithful Christian man, and a longtime member of the Central Christian Church. He loved to hunt and fish and prospect for gold. Mr. Wilson also enjoyed gardening and growing things. For several years, he and his son owned and operated Wilson Nursery, where they grew and sold all varieties of pine and cedar trees.

Buck also liked reading and playing cards.

He is survived by his son and daughter -in-law Dr. Buck and Roberta Wilson, of Portales; his two daughters, Dorothy Jo Meaders and Fae Foley, both of Roswell; a daughter-in-law Judy Wilson, of Caballo; grandsons, Brent (Debbie) Wilson, Kevin Wilson, Grant (Shawna) Wilson, Robert (Cindy) Isbell, Buck W.

tracked. His bill would subject businesses to penalties by the Federal Trade Commission if they do.

“I do not believe that companies with business models based on the collection and monetization of personal information will voluntarily stop those practices if it negatively impacts their profit margins,” Rockefeller said.

Industry is pushing back. The Digital Advertising Alliance points to its Web-based icon program that links consumers to an opt-out site of participating advertisers. They say some 20 million people have visited their site and only 1 million of those consumers chose to opt out of all ad tracking. Testifying at the

hearing, Lou Mastria, managing director of the Digital Advertising Alliance, said he thinks the industry has “delivered basically in principle” what Rockefeller proposes through legislation.

“Consumers are very pragmatic people,” Mastria said in an interview this week. “They want free content. They understand there’s a value exchange.

And they’re OK with it.”

The Do Not T rack proposal is part of a broader debate about online privacy that includes what sensitive data might be collected from a person’s mobile device. Because a smartphone can divulge a person’s location, the FTC warned in a recent report that detailed profiles of a

person’s movements can be collected over time and in surprising ways, revealing a person’s habits and patter ns and making them vulnerable to stalking or identity theft.

Some researchers also say they suspect retailers are engaging in “price discrimination” — the practice of setting a price based on personal data, such as the average home price in their area or a person’s proximity to a competitor.

Another concern is that companies might determine a person’s eligibility for certain products and services based on information collected online, potentially violating credit reporting and fair lending laws.

Senate chairman wants ‘Do Not Track’ bill for online privacy

AP Photo

Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Warning consumers that industry has failed to protect their privacy online, a top Senate Democrat said Wednesday that he will press legislation this year that would create a universal “Do Not Track” option for consumers and penalize companies that fail to honor it.

“The American people are smart,” said Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-W.Va., chairman of the Senate Commerce Committee. “They are going to figure this out. And as they figure this out, they better like what they see if the Inter net is going to prosper.”

Rockefeller’s proposal could face an uphill battle in a divided Senate already consumed with immigra-

tion and the budget. But his comments put renewed pressure on an industry struggling desperately to escape regulation.

The online privacy debate has mostly stumped Congress and prompted a tempered reaction from the Obama administration, mindful of consumers’ concer ns but reluctant to crush a growing industry in a difficult economy. Last year, the White House unveiled a “Consumer Privacy Bill of Rights” calling on industry to give consumers more control over their personal information and suggesting Congress pass legislation to enforce it.

But while everyone agrees that people should be given a choice to opt out of data collection and online tracking, advertising businesses and privacy groups remain at odds over how to implement it. Much of the debate focuses on whether consumers should have to click an opt-out button, or if their browser should automatically do it for them.

Rockefeller said Wednesday that voluntary efforts by industry have fallen short because some online advertisers ignore consumer requests not to be

S u p p o r t t h e U n i t e d Wa y

obligations for companies to tell you what information they have about you” and give you the opportunity to correct it, said Justin Brookman of the Center for Democracy and Technology.

Adam Thierer, a senior research fellow at George Mason University’s Mercatus Center, told the Senate panel that he thinks many of the privacy concer ns cited with data collection are worst-case scenarios that probably won’t happen. In the end, he said, data collection is merely “creepy” and might not warrant legislation.

“I think a lot of my neighbors are creepy, but I don’t think they’re har mful,” Thierer said.

Jerry Canales. Probation and Parole Dept. fugitive. Stopped reporting to authorities on March 21. Remains in the Roswell area and frequents the South Michigan/W. Albuquerque area of Roswell. He is serving 1 year parole for Aggravated Battery with a Deadly Weapon and Contributing to the Delinquency of a Minor.

Chaves County Crime Stoppers is on the job!

Christopher Carson: Age 31. 5'11” 185 lbs. Blue Eyes Wanted for Battery against a household member from an incident in the 600 block of West Alameda on January 19, 2013.

Well, we still have work to do! As long as Roswell and Chaves County continue to have a crime problem, Chaves County Crime Stoppers will be involved.

Back in the mid1970's, Detective Greg MacAleese of the Albuquerque Police Department was becoming very frustrated. He was conducting a homicide investigation and was getting absolutely nowhere. There was no question in his mind that the public would need to get involved and thus he began to formulate an idea to encourage their help.

Detective MacAleese was convinced that someone had to know who committed that crime! Additionally, he was sure that if he could guarantee that a tipster would remain anonymous as well as the promise of a cash reward, the crime could be solved. MacAleese was able to gain support for his idea, the case was solved with the help of the public, and the Crime Stopper programs of today continue to work nationally and internationally.

Crime Stoppers programs typically focus on criminal activities which are going on in a community.

This week, however, we also want to encourage a program which addresses one of the major sources of drug abuse in the nation and that is Prescription Drug abuse. On Saturday, April 27, from 10:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m., you may bring your expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs to the Neighborhood Watch offices at 426 North Main Street. This is the sixth National Take-Back Initiative of the Drug Enforcement Administration and marks the fifth time that the Roswell Neighborhood Watch has participated. Working hand-in-hand with the Roswell Police Department and the Chaves County Sheriff's Office, we have previously collected in excess of 635 pounds of these potentially misused and abused drugs! That's a lot of little pill bottles!

Certainly, we hope you are able on Saturday morning to bring your unwanted drugs to the historic Old Conoco Building at 5th and

Main Street beginning at 10:00 a.m. and we must stop receiving them at 2:00 p.m.

Detective MacAleese had it right. The public must become involved in solving crime in any community. Organizations such as Neighborhood Watch, Crime Stoppers, and many others all exist because law enforcement agencies, while they are very effective, simply cannot do it all. They must have the assistance of the rest of us. It's just too big a job.

Here's how Chaves County Crime Stoppers works. If you see something or you are aware of some criminal activity, call the number 1-888-594-8477 (TIPS). An operator at our call center, which is in another state, will take your call. No one will recognize your voice. You will be given a special number and you should write it down.

Information from your call goes to a special police department coordinator who will direct the call to the right agency or the right person. If an arrest is made

or a warrant issued based on the tip you made, you may be eligible for an award of up to $1,000.00.

It is important to call the Crime Stopper number first, unless of course it is an emergency. There are clearly times when a quick call to 911 will be more important

than any reward you might receive.

We are proud of the eleven citizens and law enforcement personnel who give of their own time and effort to serve as members of the Board. Likewise, as a board, we are appreciative of the wonderful community

support which we get. To date, we have awarded more than $10,000 and those calls have placed more than thirty people in jail. While it seems a shame to be proud of such statistics, it is necessary so that we can maintain just a little more control over crime in Roswell.

The flowing Iowa cornfields of “At Any Price” have nothing on the amber waves of Zac Efron’s hair.

In “At Any Price,” Ramin Bahrani plants a sweeping Midwest tale of fathers and sons, fields and seed. His camera floats over cornfields listening to the rustling of the stalks, but the somewhat graceless stabs of grandeur in “At Any Price” don’t register in this uneven but respectably ambitious heartland drama.

Dennis Quaid stars as Henry Whipple, an obsessively driven Iowa seed salesman, a family business he has inherited, along with constant pressure, from his overbearing father (Red West). Efron plays Henry’s rebellious, race car-driving son Dean. (In the lengthy history of James Dean odes and references, this may well be the most overt.)

Efron, a dashing screen presence making interesting choices for a heartthrob actor, attempts a classic American icon: a sweaty, sandy-haired, jean-wearing teenage trouble-maker. But the rebel role doesn’t suit Efron: He doesn’t have a lick of danger about him.

In any case, this is Quaid’s movie. He’s not your father’s farmer. His thousands of acres aren’t pastoral, so much as the backdrop to the hulking modern machinery that drives his small empire, one fed by genetically modified seeds that he aggressively sells to other farmers.

Early in the film, he and a reluctant Dean try to pur-

chase land at a funeral.

“Expand or die,” is Henry’s manta.

But Henry is struggling to grow. A rival seed salesman (an excellent, easy Clancy Brown) is dwarfing his business. He also finds himself under investigation for selling used seeds, the authorities tipped off mysteriously.

His family life isn’t much better. He’s cheating on his wife Irene (Kim Dickens) with a younger woman (Heather Graham). His older, more loved son has abandoned him to travel in South America. Dean has no interest in the family business, though his girlfriend (Maika Monroe) begins accompanying him on visits to his customers.

Checking up-to-theminute corn prices on his phone and glad-handing his customers with awkward folksy cheer, Quaid’s Henry Whipple is part businessman, part politician and all huckster. He papers over the less noble sides of his life with forced smiles and strong-willed evasion, but his eyes give away his desperation. It’s a strong if sometimes grating performance in need of less clicheridden dialogue.

Only after a flash of violence occurs (an implausibly setup moment in the screenplay co-written by Bahrani and Hallie Elizabeth Newton) does Henry glimpse the price of his relentless capitalism. (And, no, the metaphors aren’t subtle.)

There’s much to admire about “At Any Price,” with

status is very possible.

Tonight: Meet friends, and dance the night away.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) # # # Pressure builds at home, and it could seep into other areas of your life. It would be in your best interests to do something to stop this pattern.

A family member might be overserious. There is no way around it. You have humor and caring going for you. Tonight: Make it early.

its seldom-seen portrait of men under financial, moral and corporate pressures. It can be applauded, too, for upending quaint notions of farm life in favor of a more realistic depiction of the modern agricultural industry.

But Bahrani, in his largest scale film yet and his first effort with big-name stars, seems to be wrestling with the balance of a more sizable production. His earlier indie films, like the simple but memorable “Man Push Car” (about the life of a Pakistani food-cart seller in New York), show a depth of empathy.

Predicting the 1st round of NFL draft days

Thursday, April 25, 2013 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

NEW YORK (AP) — Get me out of here.

Maneuvering to move down in tonight’s first round of the draft will be a common behind-thescenes scramble. There simply are few franchise-type players teams will be enamored of, yet plenty of depth to make picking up extra picks later on a worthwhile strategy.

The big bodies will dominate the opening round. Look for 17 of them to go in the top 32 at Radio City Music Hall.

The mock draft presumes no trades (but 100 percent accuracy).

1. KANSAS CITY (2-14) The Chiefs already have their quarterback — not that it is worth taking one at the top this year — and a good running game. The guy who could be the cor nerstone for the entir e of fense, as well as QB Alex Smith’s protector for next few years, plays left tackle.

Unlike the Chiefs, the Jaguars are virtually devoid of talent everywher e. So anyone they choose will be an upgrade.

There’s talk they could jettison Blaine Gabbert, their first-round pick two years ago, and go for Geno Smith at quarterback.

They’d love to trade down, but if not, they’ll upgrade the pass rush and defensive athleticism instead.

DION JORDAN, DE-OLB 3. OAKLAND (4-12) By far the worst team in drafts over the past decade.

Like Jacksonville, Oakland could go anywhere with this pick, but is less likely to look to move down.

DAY

Oklahoma City Thunder • Kevin Durant is known for his scoring and he did plenty of that on Wednesday, scoring 29 points in a 105-102 win over Houston. Scoring isn’t all Durant did, however, as he handed out nine assists, grabbed four boards and swatted a shot as the Thunder took a 2-0 series lead over the Rockets.

Cowboys could keep up draft trend of moving around

IRVING, Texas (AP) — The Dallas Cowboys are sending signals that they might trade down in the draft Thursday night.

If so, they would do well to remember their disastrous “special teams” draft of 2009, the last time Dallas focused on stockpiling picks.

Not one player remains from the class with the ill-fated label from owner and general manager Jerry Jones, who didn’t have a first-round pick and focused on depth believing the Cowboys had the pieces to contend even though they were coming off a 97 season.

Dallas did make the playoffs that year and picked up the franchise’s only playoff win since 1996. But it wasn’t because of any significant contributions from the 12 draft picks known

as the “dirtiest dozen,” a derisive reference to the 1975 draft that was called the “dirty dozen” after 12 Dallas rookies made the roster for a team that went to three of the next four Super Bowls.

Plus, the Cowboys haven’t been back to the postseason since, and last season they kept signing players off the waiver wire when they didn’t have the depth to endure injuries on defense.

“We’ve got to do a better job going forward of taking your lumps early, but developing these guys and putting them in your lineup,” executive vice president Stephen Jones said at the team’s draft preview Monday.

Dallas sits at No. 18 this year, possibly too low for an immediate upgrade needed for the offensive line. While there is a theory

that a draft short on elite talent makes it a good idea to surrender picks to grab one of the top prospects, the Cowboys seem to be leaning the other way.

“Typically you save those big move ups for your skill players ... whether it’s a corner or a pass rusher on defense, a quarterback, running back, receiver,” Stephen Jones said in a radio appearance Tuesday. “You’re usually willing to give up a player later in the draft to really get a guy you want. I don’t necessarily see that for us this year.”

The Cowboys have moved up twice in the three drafts since the whif f of 2009, with what appear to be good results.

Dallas jumped three spots to grab a sliding Dez Bryant late in the first round three years ago, and the receiver had a break-

through season in 2012. The Cowboys moved way up last year, from 14th to sixth, and took cor nerback Morris Claiborne. He had modest numbers for an underper for ming and depleted defense, but was one of the reasons the team felt it had the personnel to switch back to the 4-3 after nearly a decade in the 3-4.

The best of the past four drafts for Dallas was the one time Jerry Jones stood pat. In the first three rounds of 2011, the Cowboys got tackle Tyron Smith, linebacker Bruce Carter and running back DeMarco Murray.

All three are expected to be cornerstones in the coming years.

The 2009 draft may not have been Jones’ worst. Facing similar constraints in 2001 — no first-round pick thanks to a bad

trade — the Cowboys traded down in the second round and took quarterback Quincy Carter at least two rounds ahead of where he was projected.

Carter was one of many postTroy Aikman failures, and Jones didn’t take another quarterback until 2009, his next truly bad draft. Stephen McGee went in the fourth round and was never more than a third-stringer behind Tony Romo and a host of backups.

Still, Jones is undeterred on the idea of trading down if that’s what fits.

“There’s enough depth in this draft that you sure want to keep your ears open for trades, because you very well could get as good or a better player at another level,” Jones said. “We will have our minds open.”

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Grizzlies center Marc Gasol insists he isn’t being charitable when he credits his teammates for winning his first NBA Defensive Player of the Year award. Playing great defense is just what they do in Memphis.

He said Wednesday that he believes the entire team has been recognized for how the Grizzlies play defense, crediting guards Tony Allen and Mike Conley for having a big share of the award with him.

“It’s a team game, and there’s no way around it.

That’s how we play basketball,” Gasol said. “We play as a unit, and defensively, you need five guys to play.

One of us is not playing defense, we cannot do it. We play as a team. It actually feels much better when we do it like that. You create something bigger than your-

self. It’s not just about you.”

Gasol anchored that defense, and he received 212 points and 30 firstplace votes to edge Miami’s LeBron James, who had 149 points and 18 firstplace votes. Gasol appeared on only 60 of the 121 ballots cast, with James on 47 ballots despite his 129 steals and 67 blocked shots.

The 7-foot-1 Spaniard became the first European to win the award, though just the latest big man following Tyson Chandler of New York last year and Dwight Howard three straight seasons before that.

Gasol called being the first European to win this award an honor.

“Now I think my kids are going to believe me when I tell them I played in the NBA,” Gasol said, smiling.

Gasol averaged 1.7 blocks and 1.0 steals for a Mem-

phis defense that allowed a league-best 88.7 points per game. The five-year veteran ranked 12th in the league in blocks. Memphis became the first team to hold opponents below 90 points per game in a season since 2005-06 when both the Grizzlies (88.5) and San Antonio (88.8) accomplished the feat.

Teammate Zach Randolph sat on the front row for the news conference and applauded enthusiastically.

Memphis coach Lionel Hollins sat a couple seats down from Randolph and later posed for photos with Gasol and the award.

“It’s a great honor,” Hollins said. “Marc’s played well. There’s a lot of other guys that are worthy, you know. They saw fit to give Marc the award, and he was deserving.”

Oklahoma City’s Serge

Ibaka was third with 122 points and 14 first-place votes.

The 28-year-old Gasol is the first Grizzlies player to earn defensive player honors, and he did it in a season when he wasn’t an AllStar. His older brother, Pau, was the Rookie of the Year in 2002 when he still played for the Grizzlies.

Gasol also had to beat out two teammates in Tony Allen, who received 102 points and nine first-place votes, and guard Mike Conley, who received a point.

Allen was picked for the NBA’s All-Defensive team a year ago and finished sixth in voting for Defensive Player of the Year. The Grizzlies held opponents to an average of 6.8 fewer points with Gasol on the court, the same stat with Allen on the court. Allen said he was happy for Gasol.

out the big deficit and put the Rockets up 95-91. But the top-seeded Thunder were able to respond and protect the home-court advantage they’d spent all season earning.

Game 3 is Saturday night in Houston.

The Thunder’s big lead melted away with nine straight empty possessions as the Rockets mixed in a zone defense.

Harden was able to get into the lane to create his own opportunities, and he also kicked the ball out to set up two 3-pointers by Delfino. His second 3, from the right wing, provided a four -point lead with 3:27 to go.

Oklahoma City came back to tie it before Harden knifed to the basket for a layup to give Houston its last lead at 97-95 with 2:42 to play. Durant answered right away with a deep 3 from the left wing at the opposite end, and the Thunder came up with back-to-back stops before Thabo Sefolosha’s 3 pro-

returns, as a receiver and even perhaps in a version of the wildcat. They can’t resist ...

vided a little breathing room at 101-97.

Serge Ibaka added a long jumper to make it 103-98 after Durant was forced to give up the ball.

Durant and Kevin Martin, both in the top 5 in the league in free-throw percentage, both went 1 for 2 at the foul line in the final 12 seconds to give the Rockets one last chance.

Backup Patrick Beverley moved into the starting lineup as Houston went with a three-guard unit, and it didn’t take long for the rookie to get under Westbrook’s thin skin.

Beverley lunged for a steal as Westbrook stopped to call a timeout after Houston took a 42-41 lead midway through the second quarter, with his hip slamming into Westbrook’s right knee.

Westbrook smashed his right hand onto the scorer’s table in anger and hobbled back to the huddle, but was able to stay in the game. He stripped Beverley for a runout layup two possessions later, but the Thunder still couldn’t shake free.

As the noise in the theater r eaches a cr escendo, with chants from blue-shirted Giants fans of “MAN-TI, MAN-TI,” the Giants indeed fill their need for an inside linebacker with good instincts, passion and leadership skills.

Wisely, the Rams went with Vaccaro at No. 16 and still get the wideout to boost their passing game at this spot.

23. MINNESOTA (10-6) With two selections in the next three slots, Minnesota is going to help itself on defense both times. First up, yes, the Vikings see plenty of value in that Notre Dame linebacker.

MANTI TE’O, ILB 24. INDIANAPOLIS (11-5) Seeking a pass rusher to

Smith, drew a technical foul when he jawed at Ibaka after dunking on the NBA’s top shot-blocker and Houston was still within 57-55 at halftime.

Just after Harden’s driving throwdown put Houston ahead 63-61, Oklahoma City raged back with a string of 13 straight points with Ibaka keying the run.

He swatted Omer Asik’s dunk attempt, hit two free throws and grabbed an offensive rebound that set up Westbrook’s threepoint play. The Thunder started the fourth quarter with an 11-2 to run to push their lead to 89-74 after Martin’s 3-pointer with 9:22 to go.

Coach Kevin McHale called time out, and the Rockets immediately responded with Beverley’s 3-pointer off a set play — and that was only the beginning of the comeback.

The Rockets made a concerted effort to draw charges against Westbrook after McHale’s complaints that he was allowed to make uncontested straight-line drives to the hoop in Game 1.

George leads Pacers past Hawks 113-98 for 2-0 lead

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Paul George followed his triple-double by scoring a playoff career-high 27 points to lead Indiana past Atlanta 113-98 on Wednesday night.

The Pacers lead the best-of-seven firstround series 2-0 and have won four straight home games over the Hawks. It’s the first time Indiana has held a 2-0 series lead since the 2004 Eastern Conference semifinals.

George, playing in his first game since being named the league’s Most Improved Player, was 11 of 21 from the field, had eight rebounds, three assists and four steals and again played well defensively.

George Hill had 22 points.

Atlanta was led by Devin Harris with 17 points. Jeff Teague and Josh Smith both had 16. The Hawks head home for Game 3 on Saturday.

Indiana again took control late in the first quarter and never trailed again.

The Hawks did play with more passion after being chastised by coach Larry Drew for not playing through calls and getting “manhandled” by the Pacers in Game 1.

The problem on Wednesday was that they got too aggressive at times. Josh Smith drew two fouls in the first 2 minutes and spent most of the game in foul trouble. An angry Al Horford charged toward an official in the second quarter after already picking up one technical and, fortunately for the Hawks, Harris grabbed Horford with two hands and pulled him away — keeping Horford and the Hawks in the game. Atlanta’s other big inside players, Johan Petro and Ivan Johnson got

into foul trouble in the second half, too.

It resulted in a second straight doubledigit loss for the Hawks — a game in which the Pacers produced their highest postseason point total since a 120-87 rout of the Los Angeles Lakers in the 2000 NBA Finals.

In many ways, Wednesday’s game looked awfully similar to what happened Sunday.

After scoring the first six points in Game 1, Atlanta opened Wednesday’s game with the first five points. Then, just like Sunday, the Pacers rallied to take the lead after one quarter and didn’t allow the Hawks to catch up. Indiana extended its 25-19 lead to 59-50 at halftime and to 16 late in the third quarter.

The Hawks did get within 88-76 after three, then watched Indiana go on a 9-0 run midway through the fourth quarter to take a 104-85 lead with 5:41 to go and the Hawks never challenged again.

Notes: Injured Pacers guard Danny Granger presented his friend George with the NBA’s Most Improved Player trophy at midcourt before tip-off. ... Indiana has lost 11 straight at Atlanta. ... Indiana lost starting guard Lance Stephenson late in the first quarter when he landed hard on his right hip after being called for a charge.

He was diagnosed with a bruised right hip and did not return until the start of the second half. Hill, the Pacers’ other starting guard, appeared to hurt his right elbow late. ... Indiana is 51 of 63 from the freethrow line over the first two games. Atlanta is just 18 of 34.

Rosario led off the 12th with a double to left off Luis Ayala (1-1). After Cuddyer was intentionally walked, Belisle, who had to bat with no one else left on the bench, struck out on a bunt attempt.

Torrealba ripped a single to left, and Justin Upton's throw home was wide as Rosario slid in with the winning run.

The Rockies rallied off closer Craig Kimbrel in the ninth to deny Tim Hudson his 200th career win. Dexter Fowler hit a tying double off the wall in left with two outs. Jonathan Herrera hit a one-out double and pinch-hitter Troy Tulowitzki followed with a single before Eric Young Jr. struck out.

Hudson looked set for his milestone win after he allowed three runs on six hits in six innings, struck out three and helped out with an RBI single in the fourth.

It was 48 degrees at first pitch, more than double Tuesday's 23-degree start to the doubleheader. Sunshine bathed Coors Field in the final game of a 10game homestand that included three postponements due to snow.

Abby, I can’t tell you what that meant to me. I thought about his encouragement whenever I felt hopeless and was thinking of giving up.

The memory of his kind words inspired me to go on. Thirty years later, I still think about his encouragement with amazement and gratitude.

We all have a choice: We can be kind to each other and offer friends and strangers alike support for the challenges we all face, or we can make ourselves feel superior by being cruel and demeaning. In the end, our choice shapes our character and we receive what we give, so we must choose wisely.

I’m sorry that “Losing” has met with only ignorant jerks so far. I would be honored to pay it forward and tell her how incredibly brave she is, and to encourage her to stick with it. Because she has the courage to keep exercising in the face of constant humiliation, I know without a doubt that she will reach her goals.

WENDY IN COLORADO

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: I was moved by the letter from “Losing Slowly in Ohio” (Jan. 14), who is 50 pounds overweight and walks every day with her friend to lose weight. She said that almost daily people made fun of them. My heart goes out to her.

I was in her shoes once. With diet and exercise I lost more than 60 pounds, and I’ve kept it off. But I was never ridiculed as she was. On the contrary, one day after I had just begun a daily 1-mile jog and was struggling to keep going, I passed by a man who cheerfully called out to me to “keep at it, and one day you’ll be a 10!”

DEAR WENDY: Thank you for your upbeat response. Many other readers were

COMICS

quick to “weigh in” with letters of support for “Losing Slowly”:

DEAR ABBY: I, too, have a weight problem, which I am working to resolve. But I can tell you from experience that the worst kind of discrimination is directed against people with weight problems. I have been insulted in the workplace, in restaurants and doctor’s offices. I have not been hired for jobs because I am perceived as fat and lazy.

I am NOT lazy! I keep a clean house, work hard at my job as a secretary every day, and I am a good wife and parent. We may ignore it and pretend that it doesn’t hurt us or matter, but I can tell you it IS painful, demeaning, and it doesn’t go away. I have been in meetings or at social functions and have had to excuse myself to have a good cry.

STILL SUFFERING IN KENTUCKY

DEAR ABBY: Please let “Losing Slowly” know she has another option to continue her new, healthy lifestyle in a safe environment. I have worked in malls for years, and they have all had a mall walkers’ club.

The mall allows people in to walk, including many seniors, before it opens in the morning. There she will have access to a place where everyone is on the same page. The walkers are safe from traffic, the climate, and morons who have the manners of a junkyard dog. The regulars there can tell her how many miles they can cover. It’s a great society of people who support and root for each other.

NEVER GIVING UP IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DEAR ABBY: I would suggest the two ladies create T-shirts that read “At Least We’re Trying!” and watch the jeers turn into cheers.

CAROL IN WISCONSIN

DEAR ABBY: I applaud her effort and your response, but may I raise the issue of people like myself who are ridiculed about being too THIN? Strangers say things like “Eat something, or the wind will blow you away!” Please remind your readers that making fun of very thin people is just as hurtful as doing it to overweight individuals.

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

To see or not to see (with a working flashlight), that is the question!

The refrigerator is NOT the place for flashlight batteries. Batteries today are not your grandmother’s batteries of yesterday.

You want to store your flashlight and batteries in a cool, dry, roomtemperature location where you will remember you placed them if needed during an emergency.

Try to keep an unopened package of batteries with the flashlight, but not in it. This will preserve the battery life, and they will work when you need them most. Avoid temperature extremes of hot or cold, which can reduce how a battery performs, or cause it to leak and even rupture.

Dear Readers: Most women have several handbags/purses. Here are some hints for storing the handbags you are not using: * DO NOT store handbags by the handle, especially if heavy. The handle or strap can end up getting damaged by the hook. * Handbags should be stuffed with tissue paper (preferably acidfree) when not in use. This will help the bag keep its shape. * If possible, store each handbag, if seldom used, in a dust cover or pillowcase. * Smaller bags can be stored in a hanging shoe bag or on shelves in bins. Special-occasion bags, such as clutches, that are rarely used should be stored in containers.

Dear Heloise: I use plastic grocery bags to clean my cat’s litter box, but I spent a lot of time adjusting the bag in my hand. Now, I place the bag into and around an inexpensive plastic wastebasket, and my job takes half the time. The bag is held wide open, and I no longer drop litter on the floor.

I also use the plastic litter-box liners, but have one cat that tears holes in them. When I change the litter, I now put two liners in the box. When the top one becomes too shredded, I clean the waste and pour the remaining litter into the bottom liner, which is another timesaving hint.

Terrie S. in Indiana Dear Heloise: I have a dozen or more round bracelets, and they took up quite a bit of space on my jewelry stand. I came up with the idea of buying a kitchen paper-towel holder and placing them on the holder. It holds many bracelets, freeing up lots of space for more jewelry on my jewelry stand.

Daimler profits slide on European struggles Roswell Daily Record

FRANKFURT, Germany (AP) — Daimler AG warned Wednesday that profits this year would be lower than last year’s as it reported a 60 percent slide in first-quarter earnings amid slumping auto sales in Europe.

The maker of Mercedes-Benz luxury cars said net profit fell to 564 million euros ($733 million) from 1.42 billion euros in the same quarter a year ago. Revenue was down 3 percent at 26.1 billion euros.

Profits fell short of the 810 million euros expected by analysts surveyed by financial information provider FactSet. The company’s share price was steady at (euro) 40.90 in morning trading in Europe.

Daimler laid much of the blame on the economic problems afflicting many countries in Europe. The economy of the 17 countries that use the euro currency is in a recession and struggling to reduce excessive levels of government debt.

CEO Dieter Zetsche said “many markets developed worse than expected for economic reasons, especially in Wester n Europe.”

Daimler kicked of f what could be a rough earnings quarter for European carmakers, as the region’s sales have slumped alar mingly in the first three

months of the year. U.S.-based Ford Motor Co. reports earnings later Wednesday.

BANGKOK (AP) — An increase in new U.S. home sales and strong corporate earnings across a range of industries lifted investment sentiment in Asia, where most stock markets rose Wednesday.

Luxury handbag maker Coach, Lockheed Martin and DuPont reported results that were better than analysts expected.

Netflix, which streams TV shows and movies over the Internet, announced profits that delighted investors. Meanwhile, the U.S. government reported that sales of new homes rose 1.5 percent in March, adding to evidence of a sustained housing recovery.

That offset results of a survey into manufacturing conditions among the 17 European Union countries that use the euro.

The monthly purchasing managers’ index fell to a 3-month low in April.

“Sentiment was upbeat yesterday as solid U.S. earnings and new home sales data helped equities shrug off disappointing PMI data earlier in the day,” Gary Yau at Credit Agricole CIB said in a commentary.

Japan’s Nikkei 225 index jumped 1.8 percent to 13,772.98, trading above 13,700 for the first time in nearly five years. South Korea’s Kospi rose 1 percent to 1,936.83. Australia’s S&P/ASX 200

added 1.4 percent to 5,087.90.

Hong Kong and mainland Chinese stocks also climbed on expectations that the central government might take action to boost the Chinese economy after recent data showed growth lagging in the world’s No. 2 economy.

“Because the macroeconomic situation is still bad, we are expecting there might be some new policy coming out,” said Linus Yip, strategist at First Shanghai Securities in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong’s Hang Seng advanced 1.3 percent to 22,088.95. The Shanghai Composite Index rose 0.7 percent to 2,199.41 and the Shenzhen Composite Index rose 1.3 percent to 935.07. Benchmarks in Singapore, Taiwan, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines also rose.

Among individual stocks, Japanese vehicle maker Mitsubishi Motors Corp. jumped more than 16 percent after raising its group net profit forecast for the year ending March 2013, Kyodo News reported.

On Wall Street, corporate earnings propelled all three major indexes higher. The Dow Jones industrial average climbed 1.1 percent, to close at 14,719.46. The S&P 500 index rose 1 percent to 1,578.78. The Nasdaq composite rose 1.1 percent to 3,269.33.

European auto sales fell 9.8 percent in March, the 18th monthly drop in a row, measured on a yearly basis, according to the European car industry association ACEA. Consumers are reluctant or unable to spend, as governments cut spending to deal with their debt problems. That has dented growth rates across Europe and pushed unemployment higher.

The economic fallout is worst in indebted countries in southern Europe such as Italy and Spain. But sales have also fallen in better -of f Ger many, home market for Daimler’s flagship Mercedes-Benz luxury brand. Sales for all auto companies fell 13 percent there in March.

Stocks little changed after mixed earnings AP Photo

Trader Neil Catania works on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange Wednesday.

Stuttgart-based Daimler said it expected the U.S. and Chinese markets to grow but warned that European car sales would decline further this year. The company said that “the German market cannot detach itself from this development and is expected to fall significantly short of the previous year’s level.” Daimler also said the market for trucks would fall 5 percent due to the slow economy.

NEW YORK (AP) — The stock market finished pretty much where it started Wednesday as a mixed bag of ear nings from big-name American companies left investors uninspired.

The Dow closed down 43.16 points, or 0.3 percent, at 14,676.30. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index — the market’s most widely used barometer —was flat at 1,578.79.

In other markets, the price of oil soared, posting its biggest gain this year. The price of gold and the yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury rose.

The Dow was held back by big drops in Procter & Gamble and AT&T. P&G issued a weak quarterly profit forecast and AT&T lost subscribers from its contract-based plans for the first time.

But other companies impressed investors and boosted their stock prices with strong quarterly earnings: Defense contractor General Dynamics and airplane maker Boeing easily beat expectations from financial analysts.

While the majority of corporations have delivered profits that were better than expected in the first quarter, their revenue hasn’t been as impressive, suggesting they are struggling to grow.

“Overall, the earnings environment is very lackluster, for want of a better word,” said Robbert van Batenburg, director of market strategy at Newedge.

P&G, the maker of Tide detergent and Gillette razors, dropped $4.82, or 5.1 percent, to $77.12 after its forecast came in below what financial analysts were expecting. P&G was hurt by uneven demand for new products.

AT&T dropped $1.96, or 5.2 percent, to $37.04 after it lost phone subscribers from its contractbased plans in its latest quarter. It’s a sign that industry growth is slowing now that most American have smartphones.

General Dynamics, the aerospace and defense company, jumped $4.62, or 6.9 percent, to $71.73.

CEO Phebe Novakovic called the quarter’s

results a “strong start” to achieving the company’s goals this year, saying they reflected its focus on cuttings costs and generating cash.

Boeing climbed $2.65, or 3 percent, to $90.83 after the airplane maker said its first-quarter net income rose 20 percent despite problems with the 787 Dreamliner. The company said it would meet its financial and airplane delivery goals this year.

So far, 175 of the companies in the S&P 500, or 35 percent, have reported quarterly earnings and two-thirds of the Dow’s 30 members have reported.

Sixty-nine percent of companies in the S&P 500 have beaten profit expectations, better than the 10-year average of 62 percent, according to S&P Capital IQ. However, only 39 percent have beaten revenue forecasts.

Looking ahead, the outlook dims. Of the 35 companies that have given earnings forecasts for the second quarter, 28 have been “negative,” according to S&P Capital IQ, with only four “positive” and three “in-line.”
