SKI LIFT ACCIDENT CARRABASSETT VALLEY, Maine (AP) — A 35year-old chair lift set for improvements failed Tuesday in high winds at a Maine resort, sending skiers — some of them children — plummeting into ungroomed snow far below that fell with the Northeast’s recent blizzard and softened the landing.

Passengers still stranded; NY digging out NEW YORK (AP) — Hundreds of airline passengers were stranded for up to 10 hours on the tarmac at overworked Kennedy Airport.

Ambulances struggled to get patients through unplowed streets. City buses sat abandoned in the snow.

The Christmas weekend blizzard proved to be the curse that keeps on giving Tuesday, as confusion and frustration snowballed in New York and the rest of the country.

Officials warned it could take until New Year’s to rebook all passengers and straighten out the transportation mess created by the storm, which shut down all three of New York’s major airports for 24 hours and caused a ripple effect across the U.S. A high school band from Pennsylvania faced the prospect of marching in the Rose Bowl parade in Pasadena, Calif., with only half its musicians after the stor m stranded the rest in Philadelphia. European tourists who planned to fly into New York found themselves in Chicago when their flights were diverted.

T ravelers as far away as San Francisco were marooned, even though they were headed nowhere near the Northeast.

New York’s airports struggled to get planes in and out. But some jetliners couldn’t even get to the gate.

passengers waited five hours for an open gate, and then two more hours for customs to open, said John Lampl, a spokesman for the airline. A Cathay Pacific flight

that had been diverted to Toronto spent 10 hours on the tarmac, and a second Cathay Pacific plane with 250 people sat on the runway for about eight hours Tues-

Where are the jobs? For Gonzales set to many companies, overseas hold New Year’s Eve celebration

PALLAVI GOGOI AP BUSINESS WRITER Corporate profits are up.

Stock prices are up. So why isn’t anyone hiring?

Actually, many American companies are — just maybe not in your town.

They’re hiring overseas, where sales are surging and the pipeline of orders is fat.

More than half of the 15,000 people that Caterpillar Inc. has hired this year were outside the U.S. UPS is also hiring at a faster clip overseas. For both companies, sales in international markets are growing at least twice as fast as domestically.

The trend helps explain why unemployment remains high in the United States, edging up to 9.8 percent last month, even though companies are performing well: All but 4 percent of the top 500 U.S. corporations reported profits this year, and the stock market is close to its highest point since the 2008 financial meltdown.

But the jobs are going elsewhere. The Economic Policy Institute, a Washington think tank, says American companies have created 1.4 million jobs overseas this year, compared with less than 1 mil-

Hospital: Kids injured on ski lift

CARRABASSETT VALLEY, Maine (AP) — A 35year -old chair lift set for improvements failed Tuesday in high winds at a Maine resort, sending skiers — some of them children — plummeting into ungroomed snow far below that fell with the Northeast’s recent blizzard and softened the landing.

At least eight people, the children among them, were taken to a hospital after the double-chair lift at Sugarloaf derailed during a busy vacation week at the resort 120 miles north of Portland. Dozens of skiers remained on the crippled lift for an hour or more until patrols could get them down.

The resort was not operating the failed lift and two others early in the day because of winds but deemed them safe to use before the accident at 10:15 a.m., said Ethan Austin, spokesman for Sugarloaf. The resort said the cable that supports the chairs jumped off track, though the exact cause of the failure is being investigated. Winds were gusting at 40 mph at the time.

The resort said the lift, which went into service in 1975 and recently passed an inspection, was set for upgrades or repairs but declined to specify when.

About five chairs fell 25 to 30 feet onto a ski trail below, officials said.

Rebecca London, one of the skiers who tumbled to the snow, told The Associated Press that her face hit a retaining bar, but that her goggles spared her from serious injury. She credited new snow underneath the lift with a soft landing; the resort said it got 20 to 22 inches in Monday’s storm.

“Thankfully, they didn’t groom it last night, so they left it like it was,” she said.

“So the snow was all soft.”

Most of the skiers who fell appeared to be stunned but OK, she said, and the ski patrol was on the scene within minutes to treat the injured. London, 20, of Carrabassett Valley, said she wasn’t hurt badly enough to go to a hospital.

Jay Marshall, a ski coach who hunkered down in a cold wind while on a lift next to the broken one, said that his lift was moving but that the broken one was not.

There was a “loud snapping noise” after the lift restarted, he said, then some screams.

“The next thing I know, it was bouncing up and down like a yo-yo,” said Marshall, of Carrabassett Valley. He said it was too difficult to watch, so he looked away.

“It was terrifying,” he said.

There could have been as few as 50 people or as many as 160 on the lift at

the time, according to Sugarloaf, owned by Boyne Falls, Mich.-based Boyne Resorts. Sugarloaf workers used a pulley-like system to lower skiers to safety.

Jill Gray, a spokeswoman for Franklin Memorial Hospital in Farmington, 45 miles away, said eight adults and children were taken there but did not give details on the injuries. One of the injured was flown on to Maine Medical Center in Portland, she said.

It’s unclear whether the accident was wind-related or mechanical. Because of its position on the face of the mountain, the lift that failed is more vulnerable to being shut down because of high winds, said Austin, the resort spokesman.

The failed lift and two others started the day on a “wind hold,” Austin said, but Sugarloaf officials later deemed it safe to operate before the accident at

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The deadliest city blaze in decades killed eight homeless squatters who were burning debris in an abandoned warehouse to stay warm Tuesday, authorities said.

Firefighters said they could not tell the ages or genders of those who died because their bodies were so badly bur ned. A 23year-old man who escaped told the American Red Cross he could not get back in to help his friends because of the smoke, agency volunteer Thomas Butler said.

The Orleans Parish Coroner’s Of fice said it was uncertain when the dead would be identified. However, a group of young people sitting on the steps of an abandoned house near the scene later Tuesday said the dead included three women and five men.

Rachel Park, 27, of California, estimated the ages ranged from 19 to 30.

She said the victims never thought of themselves as homeless and rejected the “gutter punk” label used by some locals to describe transient youths often seen begging

for money or cigarettes on French Quarter streets.

“They were all accomplished musicians or artists — jolly, happy people,” Park said, adding that four dogs died along with the eight people.

Park knew the victims by first names only and said one or two were from the New Orleans area, while the others were from elsewhere in the U.S. Temperatures were just below freezing early Tuesday, not unheard of but unusually cold for New Orleans. The warehouse is in a blighted city neighborhood left even more so by the flooding that followed Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

Agencies that work with the homeless said they believe some or all the victims were in their late teens or early 20s. Linda Gonzales, of the New Orleans Mission, said homeless young adults and teenagers often avoid shelters for several reasons.

“Some of them choose to stay out and you can’t make them come in,” she said.

The number of transient youths fluctuates, but there could be several hun-

dred homeless young people in the city at any given time, said Mike Miller, an official with the homeless advocacy and aid group UNITY of Greater New Orleans.

The blaze was reported just before 2 a.m., and fire trucks arrived within five minutes to find the building engulfed in flames, fire department spokesman Greg Davis said. Some of the victims may have been rendered unconscious by carbon monoxide, a danger with indoor fires.

All that was left of the warehouse, which sat amid graffiti-covered rail cars and ramshackle buildings, was the blackened foundation and a partial shell of singed corrugated metal.

Nearby, inhabited woodframe houses, some with Christmas decorations, are interspersed with boardedup homes with holes in the roofs. The city has more than 55,000 such blighted properties, according to

Identity theft

This photo provided by Betsy Twombly shows a skier being helped down from a lift chair, center, after a lift derailed on the state's tallest ski mountain at the Sugarloaf resort in Carrabassett Valley, Maine, on Tuesday, 10:15 a.m.

Guidelines for “wind holds” include wind speed and other factors, but sometimes it’s as simple as noting whether chairs are swinging in the wind, he said.

The failed lift is 4,013 feet long, gains 1,454 feet of elevation and nearly reaches the summit of 4,327-foot Sugarloaf, the state’s second-tallest mountain. It went into service in 1975 and was modified in 1983, according to Sugarloaf officials.

Betsy Twombly of Falmouth said the resort notified season pass holders like herself that the lift would be the first to be replaced under a 10-year improvement plan. Austin told reporters it was on a list of those to be upgraded but declined to say when that was due to happen.

A 22-year -old woman who was not in the warehouse when the fire started told the Red Cross she was one of several squatters who had been using the building for shelter.

Three young people who watched from across the street as firefighters searched for victims with dogs said they knew those who died but would not say more.

Later Tuesday, Audrey Bean, 19, of Philadelphia, strummed a ukulele. “I was living in there with them for a few weeks,” she said.

Park and Bean were among a small group of young people in worn clothing, their hands and faces dirty. They piled into a beat-up van and drove away shortly before dusk near the burned remains of the building.

Police took a walk-in report about identity theft on Monday. The victim reported that his home in Texas was broken into in 1998. In 2002, the IRS started to take deductions from his Social Security. The victim later discovered that an unidentified individual from Utah was making his child support payments. Investigations have revealed that driver’s licenses have been issued in his name in Colorado, Kansas and Arizona.

Texas social worker named to run CYFD SANTA FE (AP) — Gov.-elect Susana Martinez on Tuesday selected a Texas social worker to run the agency that operates New Mexico’s juvenile justice and foster care systems and provides protective services for neglected and abused children.

Martinez listed several reasons for nominating Yolanda Berumen-Deines to run the Children, Youth and Families Department.

“It is because of the passion that Yolanda Deines shares with me and the importance of this department and certainly because of the impact she had in my career,” the Republican governor-elect said.

Martinez first met Berumen-Deines more than 20 years ago when she was an intern for a district judge in Texas. Berumen-Deines was testifying on behalf of two young boys whose father was being tried for the murder of their pregnant mother. Martinez said it was Berumen-Deines’ compassion for the boys and her toughness in the pursuit of justice that inspired her to become a prosecutor.

Berumen-Deines, 61, is a licensed clinical social worker from El Paso, Texas. She also has worked for the El Paso Center for Children as director of training for its healthy marriages initiative, the Texas Department of Human Services and a number of nonprofit advocacy groups.

While in private practice, Berumen-Deines has specialized in helping sexual abuse victims and supporting the efforts of law enforcement. She has also trained prosecutors, teachers and others in Dona Ana County on how to spot physical and sexual abuse among children.

E-mails, letters favor pardon for Billy the Kid Roswell Daily Record

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — More people say they favor a pardon for Billy the Kid than oppose the idea after Gov. Bill Richardson’s office set up a website and e-mail address to take comments on a possible posthumous pardon for one of New Mexico’s most famous Old West outlaws.

Richardson’s office received 809 e-mails and letters in the survey that ended Sunday. Some 430 argued for a pardon and 379 opposed it.

The website was created in mid-December after Albuquerque attorney Randi McGinn petitioned for a pardon, contending New Mexico Territorial Gov. Lew Wallace promised one in return for the Kid’s testimony in a murder case against three men.

Richardson’s term ends Friday, leaving him only a few days to decide whether to pardon the Kid in the 1878 killing of Lincoln County Sheriff William Brady.

“I might not pardon him. But then I might,” Richardson told The Associated Press last week.

His successor, incoming Gov. Susana Martinez, has already said she won’t be

wasting her time on a pardon. The Republican said Tuesday that state issues, such as a balanced budget and a controversial move of the state’s DNA laboratory, were more pressing.

“There’s an awful lot of work to be taken care of for us to be wasting so much time on such a consideration. It’s just a waste,” she said.

Billy the Kid, also known as William Bonney or Henry McCarty, was shot to death by Sheriff Pat Garrett in July 1881, a few months after escaping from the Lincoln County jail where he was awaiting hanging for Brady’s death. He killed two deputies while escaping, but McGinn’s pardon request does not cover those deaths.

McGinn, knowing Richardson’s interest in the Kid, offered to look into the issue this summer. She petitioned for a pardon Dec. 14 after reviewing historical documents and other material.

E-mails debating the issue came from all over the U.S. and beyond, including England, Japan, France and New Zealand, said Richardson’s deputy chief of staff,

were running low and he was worried about his wife and 2-month-old daughter.

“We’re going to be in trouble very shortly. There’s no food left for her,” he told The Associated Press by cell phone, shortly before the family got off the plane.

Airlines were dispatching planes to the airport without lining up gate space first, causing backups on the ground, said Steve Coleman, a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates Kennedy.

Cathay Pacific spokesman Gus Whitcomb said the planes had taken off under the assumption that they would have somewhere to go upon landing.

In general, U.S. airlines operating domestic flights are not allowed to keep passengers waiting on the tarmac for more than three hours. But the rule does not apply to international flights or foreign airlines.

The chaos was also reflected in New York’s streets, where hundreds of abandoned city buses and dozens of ambulances still sat in the middle of snowdrifts from the storm, which clobbered the city with up to 2 feet of snow. A video that instantly went viral on the Internet showed city crews accidentally smashing a parked car as they tried to free a city construction vehicle.

Officials predicted streets would not be clear until Wednesday, a day later than they first promised.

“And even then I’m not so sure,” Mayor Michael Bloomberg said.

versus what is good for the American economy,” says Scott.

American jobs have been moving overseas for more than two decades. In recent years, though, those jobs have become more sophisticated — think semiconductors and software, not toys and clothes.

And now many of the products being made overseas aren’t coming back to the United States. Demand has grown dramatically this year in emerging markets like India, China and Brazil.

Meanwhile, consumer demand in the U.S. has been subdued. Despite a strong holiday shopping season, Americans are still spending 18 percent less than before the recession on furniture, and 10 percent less on electronics, according to MasterCard’s SpendingPulse.

“Companies will go where there are fast-growing markets and big profits,” says Jeffrey Sachs, globalization expert and economist at Columbia University. “What’s changed is that companies today are getting top talent in emerging economies, and the U.S. has to really watch out.”

With the future looking brighter overseas, companies are building there, too. Caterpillar, maker of the signature yellow bulldozers and tractors, has invested in three new plants in China in just the last two months to design and manufacture equipment. The decision is

Eric Witt.

“This has clearly generated a lot of interest globally,” Witt said.

He said responses, pro and con, came from people familiar with the legend of Billy the Kid as well as from people knowledgeable about the territorial era and the Lincoln County War, in which the Kid and Brady were on opposite sides.

Some argued that circumstantial evidence points toward Wallace offering a pardon and said it was not implausible since Wallace pardoned other people involved in the Lincoln County War. Others questioned why Richardson would consider pardoning “a cop killer,” Witt said.

McGinn has said the point is not who was killed, but whether a government has to keep its promise.

Among those opposing a pardon are Garrett’s grandson J.P. Garrett, of Albuquerque, and Wallace’s great-grandson William Wallace, of Westport, Conn.

J.P. Garrett has said there’s no proof Gov. Wallace offered a pardon — and he may have tricked the Kid into testifying.

“The big picture is that Wallace obvious-

Brooklyn resident Annie O’Daly waited more than 30 hours for help after falling and breaking her ankle Sunday night at around 8 p.m., said Jim Leonhardt, her husband. An ambulance didn’t arrive until 2:30 a.m.

Tuesday. Leonhardt had to help paramedics carry her out onto the unplowed street and over a snowbank.

Officials pleaded with private companies to help out, and the city converted various vehicles in its fleet into snowplows, including trucks typically used for cleaning graffiti.

“It’s a bad situation and we’re working together to correct it,” Bloomberg said.

Some 1,000 vehicles had been removed from three major New York City-area expressways alone, the mayor said. In New Jersey, police in helicopters counted at least 60 vehicles stranded along a highway at the shore.

Motorists were taken in National Guard Humvees and other vehicles to shelters.

In Asbury Park, N.J., a commuter train hit a tractortrailer that got stuck at a railroad crossing. The driver had left the truck and no injuries were reported.

More than 5,000 flights had been canceled since Sunday night at all three New York-area airports, about 1,000 of them on Tuesday alone.

Adriana Siqueira, 38, a housekeeper from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., was told she and her 10-year-old daughter cannot get home from New York’s LaGuardia until New Year’s Day. They had already spent one night in the terminal and couldn’t afford a hotel.

“I have no idea what I’m going to do,” Siqueira said. “I don’t feel good.” based on demand: Asia-Pacific sales soared 38 percent in the first nine months of the year, compared with 16 percent in the U.S. Caterpillar stock is up 64 percent this year.

“There is a shift in economic power that’s going on and will continue. China just became the world’s second-largest economy,” says David Wyss, chief economist at Standard & Poor’s, who notes that half of the revenue for companies in the S&P 500 in the last couple of years has come from outside the U.S. Take the example of DuPont, which wowed the world in 1938 with nylon stockings. Known as one of the most innovative American companies of the 20th century, DuPont now sells less than a third of its products in the U.S. In the first nine months of this year, sales to the Asia-Pacific region grew 50 percent, triple the U.S. rate. Its stock is up 48 percent this year.

DuPont’s work force reflects the shift in its growth: In a presentation on emerging markets, the company said its number of employees in the U.S. shrank by 9 percent between January 2005 and October 2009. In the same period, its work force grew 54 percent in the AsiaPacific countries.

“We are a global player out to succeed in any geography where we participate in,” says Thomas M. Connelly, chief innovation officer at DuPont. “We want our resources close to where our customers are, to tailor products to their needs.”

While most of DuPont’s research labs are still stateside, Connelly says he’s impressed with the company’s overseas talent. The company opened a large research facility in Hyderabad, India, in 2008.

ly had no intent to pardon Billy — even telling a reporter that fact in an interview on April 28, 1881,” he wrote to Witt. “But I do think there was a pardon ‘trick,’ in that Wallace led Billy on to get his testimony.”

William Wallace said his ancestor never promised a pardon, so pardoning the Kid “would declare Lew Wallace to have been a dishonorable liar.”

The Kid wrote Wallace in 1879, volunteering to testify in the murder case if Wallace would annul pending charges against him, including the Brady indictment.

McGinn said Wallace responded he had the authority “to exempt you from prosecution if you will testify to what you say you know.”

The Kid kept his end of the bargain, but Wallace did not, she argued.

J.P. Garrett said there’s no written proof Wallace offered a pardon.

And, he noted, when the Kid was awaiting trial in Brady’s killing, “he wrote four letters for aid, but never used the word ‘pardon.”’

Man arrested by task force JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The Chaves County Inter net Crimes Against Children task force made its second arrest on Dec. 14.

Cesar Mendoza, 35, was charged with 21 counts of sexual exploitation of children. The criminal complaint against Mendoza details the technicalities of tracing a computer through a website and an IP address.

The affidavit describes examples of explicit video clips that feature prepubescent females and males.

During his initial interview Mendoza stated the video clips pop “up once and a while, but I close it.”

He admitted he had seen one with an adult male and two girls.

Later during the initial interview, Mendoza said he downloaded child pornography and opened them.

“Um, I have looked at them,” he said in the interview.

Each count of sexual exploitation of children is a fourth-degree felony. Lt. Britt Snyder said each of the counts carry an 18month sentence and a fine.

Chaves County Sheriff James “Rob” Coon explained if Mendoza is convicted of all counts he will serve more than 30 years in prison.

Mendoza appeared Tuesday in Magistrate Court for

Cesar Mendoza

a preliminary hearing.

He is being held in the Chaves County Detention Center with a $100,000 cash surety bond.

Defense attorney Scott Douglas Jones-Witt asked for a reduction of bond.

“I have some heartburn over that,” said Judge John J. Halvorson. He then lowered the bond to a $5,000 cash-only bond, which halved the original bond of $10,000 amount required to pay for cash surety. He also made the stipulation that should Mendoza make bail, he not have access to a computer or have contact with children under the age of 18.

Mendoza is the second arrest made by the task force. The first, Robert Buie, was made in October.

The task force has a further eight cases ongoing and five or six cases pending.

Mendoza will remain in CCDC until he can arrange bond. j.palmer@roswell-record.com

It was a bad year for political predictions A4 Wednesday, December 29, 2010

OPINION

SANTA FE — After closely watching the New Mexico political scene for more than 50 years, it had become fun and easy to predict events of the next year.

Regardless of what was said by our politicos, actual events fell into a predictable pattern.

Until two years ago, that is. At almost exactly this same time in 2008, Gov. Bill Richardson announced he would not be leaving New Mexico midway through his second term to join the cabinet of the incoming Barack Obama presidency.

Lt. Gov. Diane Denish’s transition team had about finished its work. Bill Richardson was just an afterthought. And then came the bombshell. Richardson wasn’t leaving.

His 500 political appointees, who had been busily assuring Denish of their loyalty, were running over each other in the Roundhouse hallways to reassure Richardson they were still solidly

obscurity to a place on the national stage in less than a year.

This coming year will be equally difficult to call. Who knows how Martinez’s first year in the saddle will go? She still is a relatively unknown quantity. I have been chided for putting her on the national stage before even serving a day in office.

But let me remind you that 10 years ago, when Bill Richardson was still working for the Clinton administration and Gary Johnson had just begun his campaign to legalize drugs, I predicted both would be running for president before the decade was over.

Everyone but Bill Richardson told me I was crazy. I may not be crazy about Susana Martinez’s possibilities either. There is ample evidence Martinez still is receiving national assistance to assure a successful tenure in office.

in his corner. And my predictions of what would be happening during a Denish administration could be thrown in the waste can.

Despite losing her chance to take over early as governor, Denish built up a $2 million campaign war chest and scared out all possible Democratic challengers. And both Steve Pearce and Heather Wilson, considered Denish’s two toughest possible opponents, had decided this wasn’t the time to run for governor.

Denish looked unbeatable. It was at that point that I boldly predicted Denish would best Allen Weh for governor. But Susana Martinez came from statewide

for cabinet secretaries of the Public Education Department and the Human Services Department were both people of national stature — probably not an accident.

A year ago, I picked Reps. Martin Heinrich and Ben Ray Lujan to win their congressional seats again. I demurred on the TeaguePearce race. I picked libertarianleaning Adam Kokesh to win the 3rd Congressional District Republican primary.

I based that on Kokesh’s fundraising ability and his aggressive full-time campaign. I should have heeded an anonymous tip from a GOP leader that beating Kokesh was a Republican Party priority because the guy was scary.

I predicted New Mexico’s economy would remain bad throughout this year despite legislative predictions of a 6 percent increase. That was an easy one. So was my prediction that ethics reform would continue to receive much lip service but little action.

We heard much about ethics and corruption during the recent political campaigns but it isn’t likely to result in any stricter laws.

My prediction that former Gov. Gary Johnson would become more visible nationally but wouldn’t get invited to any Republican functions because of his libertarian views on drug legalization and foreign entanglements turned out to be only half right. He has been invited to Republican functions in states with early presidential primaries.

And my final prediction, which proved accurate, was that Billy the Kid would remain in the news in a big way this year. That was an easy one too because Richardson was sure to take one last shot at linking his name with the world’s most famous New Mexican.

Furiously flapping lame ducks

To the surprise of most observers, the lame-duck session of Congress proved to be prolific in passing legislation. Whether it was productive is another question.

The existence of lame-duck sessions, that period in which legislators rejected by voters in November get to pass new laws before the winners assume office in January, is one of the annoying anomalies of our political system. These short-termers allow issues and positions that voters, the supposed ultimate source of political authority, have rejected, to be implemented, anyway.

The genesis of this lame-duck session grew from the fact that Congress had not confronted the scheduled sunset of the Bush-era tax cuts and, consequently, existing tax rates were set to increase dramatically Jan 1. In addition, Congress had not passed appropriations bills, so the government was technically scheduled to run out of money.

One might have expected the lame-duck session to confine itself to those issues, especially in a year in which voters more dramatically than in decades rejected the administration’s agenda. Instead, those who had been admonished by voters seized on one last chance to enact portions of their agenda before a new Congress, more closely reflecting public opinion, took power.

From our perspective of individual liberty, however, not all the results were lamentable.

The repeal of the “don’t ask don’t tell,” a policy under which homosexual Americans could only serve in the military by lying about who they were, was long overdue. And while one might have preferred a more deliberative approach, Senate ratification of the New START nuclear arms treaty with Russia, which points toward modest reductions in these weapons by both countries, was not a bad thing.

The lame ducks did show some apparent signs of understanding what voters were trying to tell them when they rejected a lastminute effort by Old Bull appropriators to pass an omnibus spending bill larded with pork. That this decision reportedly was part of a deal that secured a few Republican votes for repeal of “don’t ask don’t tell,” however, suggests that it was more business as usual than recognition of a changing political climate.

Legislators defied what appears to be growing voter sentiment for a more-limited government by passing a wholly unnecessary food safety bill that gives the Food and Drug Administration more arbitrary power and will accelerate the government-induced process of squeezing out small family and organic farms in favor of giant agribusiness.

President Barack Obama is the main winner in all this legislative activity, but it is premature to call him the “comeback kid” on the basis of a couple of good days.

As to the GOP’s behavior, the question remains: Will these be the Republicans of a rediscovered devotion to cutting back government, or the Old Bulls who were happy to overspend through the Bush years and who will dominate most important committee chairmanships in the new Congress?

We’ll be interested to see.

Guest Editorial The Orange County Register DEAR DR. GOTT: I have an average of three dreams nightly, some of which are upsetting.

This started after my wife passed away. I dream about her a lot, but there are many other dreams such as losing my way and trying to get back home, worrying about my family worrying about me, losing my billfold, car being stolen, coming out of church and can’t find the car, church happenings and many other miscellaneous things. I sometimes wonder if this is the doorway to Alzheimer’s. I’m 90 years old and a World War II veteran. I don’t think my problem is normal, but my doctor can’t help me so I will have to rely on you.

That prompted an answer from the president that his views on the subject of samesex “marriage” are “evolving.”

Let me go out on a limb and predict they will “evolve” to acceptance, even advocacy, just in time for his re-election campaign.

Mark Knoller of CBS Radio wanted the president to “explain the anger and even

Help Ernie and new VA health care cuts, care access Roswell Daily Record

Our local veteran in need Ernie Burgos’ project, Ernie’s Home, at 1900 W. Alameda St., is in desperate need of money and volunteers. As sometimes happens, projects start with a bang, then sputter as the newness wears off. We need to kick the tires and re-ignite the fires! Please call Harry McGraw at 622-1454 or Ink Plus (Mark or Ron) at 627-7244, if you can spare a few dimes or volunteer some time, it would be greatly appreciated.

Now for an urgent topic affecting a lot of us. Payment for health care at civilian facilities will be cut starting Feb. 15. Here's more health care cost savings to help pay for that new national health plan, according to 38 CFR, Part 17, RIN2900–AN37.

The summary reads: “This document affirms as final, with changes, a proposed rule that updates the Department of Veterans Affairs medical regulations concerning the payment methodology used to calculate VA payments for inpatient and outpatient health care professional services and other medical services associated with non-VA outpatient care. (The rule has been designed to ensure that it will not have

adverse effects on access to care.) This final rule is effective Feb. 15, 2011.”

It will not negatively af fect current access? Makes me feel a lot better — how about you? In brief, it makes significant reductions in payment to local health care providers for treating local veterans. This is what drove local physicians to stop treating Tricare patients for retired military and families. That's not a negative impact to access?

“In a proposed rule published on Feb. 18, 2010, we proposed to amend § 17.56 to apply Medicare payment methodologies to all non-VA inpatient and outpatient health care professional services and other

medical charges associated with non-VA outpatient care.” What is extremely menacing about this plan is the process used — Medicare's hospital outpatient prospective payment system. Medicare makes up a large percentage of physician and health providers’ billing. VA patients not so. Veterans will simply not be able to be seen locally — the current situation for Tricare veterans. The OPPS forced a number of small, not for profit nursing homes, home healths and hospices out of business in the late 1990s.

What exactly are the effects? To use the VA’s own numbers, as reported publically, four “groups” were assessed. Keep in mind, this is only four groups. Clinical lab claims: Payments under VA current method are $71.4 million. Payments under Medicare pricing would be $18.1 million.

Cost “cuts” would be $53.3 million. Percentage reduction would be 74.6 percent.

Using other figures computed by the VA private contractor, VA fee basis outpatient dialysis facility claims will be cut by $68.2 million, or 38.8 percent. Ambulatory surgery center facilities’ charges will be cut

And so it went with a liberal question about the defeated “Dream Act,” and many other suck-up questions that ought to have embarrassed any self-respecting journalist.

On MSNBC, Tom Brokaw compared Obama’s yearend legislative successes to Lazarus rising from the dead. As most nationally known journalists are anything but “religious,” that analogy could stump Brokaw’s secular media colleagues. They might even have to look it up, which would not be a bad thing for them to do.

The lapdog big media will predictably question everything the new Republican House attempts to do, characterizing it as “insensitive,” pro-rich and even inhuman. They will be helped by unions, which will stage demonstrations against any program cuts or attempts to reduce the size and reach of government. Characters are already in the wings, waiting for their moment on stage. These will include the elderly, the poor, the homeless and other “victims” who make up much of the Democrat base.

will dutifully cover them without fact-checking a single one, much less suggesting such people could better their lives by relying less on government and more on themselves.

As Byron York correctly noted in The Washington Examiner, Democrats will again cry “Washington is broken” after Republicans take control of the House and improve their numbers in the Senate. To them, Washington “works” only when it is passing bills authored by Democrats that cost and tax more, while expanding the size and reach of government. Washington is “broken” when Republicans say “no” to more dependence on government and yes to liberty, opportunity and personal responsibility.

The message from the November election was about ending Obamism, not expanding it. You wouldn’t know that from the drooling big media, which is already trying to re-establish the liberal narrative that everything Democrats do is good and everything Republicans do is evil. The big question is: What narrative do Republicans have to counter, even replace, the Democrats’ narrative? That I can’t predict, except to say we’ll soon know.

$11.3 million, or 1.2 percent. Hospital outpatient department and emergency room facility charges for VA purchased care will be cut by $62.5 million, or 33.2 percent.

In the next four years, the respective percentage “cuts” in payments to local health care providers will range from 47.9 percent to 56.1 percent. The total will be $1.81 billion or 51.1 percent, but there is a caveat. Medicare will also be reducing its reimbursements over the coming years, adding further “cuts” in VA local payments. In simple terms, no local providers can afford to see VA patients, and the VA can now say “not our fault.” OK, so in New Mexico they say that now anyway.

So, if doctors and medical providers are considered “greedy,” then politicians should be viewed through the same spectacles, don’t you think? In the spirit of “cost reductions” in veterans' medical care and disability benefits, don’t you think a reduction in government salaries and expenses in like proportions is in order?

God bless.

Farmers, pecan growers say coal plant kills plants

BASTROP, Texas (AP) — Along a stretch of Highway 21, in a pastoral, hilly region of Texas, is a vegetative wasteland. Trees are barren, or covered in gray, dying foliage and peeling bark. Fallen, dead limbs litter the ground where pecan growers and ranchers have watched trees die slow, agonizing deaths.

Visible above the horizon is what many plant specialists, environmentalists and scientists believe to be the culprit: the Fayette Power Project — a coal-fired power plant for nearly 30 years has operated mostly without equipment designed to decrease emissions of sulfur dioxide, a component of acid rain.

The plant’s operator and the state’s environmental regulator deny sulfur dioxide pollution is to blame for the swaths of plant devastation across Central Texas.

But evidence collected from the Appalachian Mountains to New Mexico indicates sulfur dioxide pollution kills vegetation, especially pecan trees. Pecan growers in Albany, Ga., have received millions of dollars in an out-of-court settlement with a power plant whose sulfur dioxide emissions harmed their orchards.

Now, extensive tree deaths are being reported elsewhere in Texas, home to 19 coal-fired power plants — more than any other state. Four more are in planning stages. In each area where the phenomenon is reported, a coal-fired power plant operates nearby.

The Fayette Power Project sits on a 10-

Antonio Cruz-Lopez

Antonio Cruz-Lopez quietly passed away on Dec. 24, 2010, at Casa Maria Health Care Center. Antonio will be lying in state at Ballard Funeral Home Chapel on Tuesday, Dec. 28, 2010, until the time of the Mass. The rosary will be at 6:30 p.m., Wednesday, Dec. 29, 2010, at Ballard Funeral Home Chapel.

A Mass will be held at St. John’s Catholic Church on Dec. 30, 2010, at 10 a.m.

Fr. Juan Antonio Gutierrez of St. John’s Catholic Church will officiate. Burial will follow at South Park Cemetery.

Antonio Cruz-Lopez was born in Gran Morelos, Chihuahua, on May 10, 1925.

His parents were Trinidad Lopez and Pedro Cruz.

Both have preceded him in death, as well as a brother, Francisco Cruz and two sisters, Bertha Amada Lopez and Elisa Estrada, all of Chihuahua, Mexico.

He met his beloved wife of 56 years, Sabina Medrano Cruz, in Mar fa, Texas, where they married on May 23, 1951. She preceded him in death in March 2008.

Survivors include his daughter, Guadalupe Garcia, and husband, Raul, of Roswell; his son, Albert Cruz, and wife, Martha, of Roswell; grandson, Stephen Anthony Garcia, of Albuquerque; three granddaughters, Valerie M. Garcia-Clark and husband, Jeremy, of Phoenix, Ariz., Angelica Cruz and partner, Lizeth Chavez, of Mesa, Ariz., and Erica Cruz Flores and husband, Wesley; g r e a t - g r a n d d a u g h t e r, Gabrielle Marie Flores, of Albuquerque; a nephew, Carlos Lopez, and wife, Socorro, from Juarez, Mexico; niece, Berta Alicia Lopez, of Delicias, Chihuahua; and many close friends.

Antonio and his family moved to Roswell in the early 1960s. He first worked very hard long hours as a farm laborer in

the fields. Later, he was employed by The Roswell Inn, transporting people back and forth from the airport to the motel. Somehow, with little education he always managed to find a job to support his family.

His next job was at Denny’s restaurant and finally for more than 25 years till his retirement, he did maintenance work at Furr’s Cafeteria. At that time he was well over 70 years old.

He was a beautiful person at heart. He loved dancing and enjoyed all kinds of music. He was very generous and giving while never expecting anything in return. “Toni,” as some would call him, treated all with great respect, regardless of gender, background or race. His deep blue eyes saw everyone as a friend. Our Papi was precious and will be missed so much by so many. We’d like to send a special thanks to all those who visited with him when he was alive. We also wish to thank all the young ladies at Casa Maria for being so good to him.

Pallbearers will be Stephen Garcia, Orlando Vargas, Carlos Lopez, Wesley Flores, Jeremy Clark and Pete Salazar. Honorary pallbearers are Paul Ontiveros, Raul Saenz, Marcy Salazar, Joe Shamas, Valentin Gonzalez and anyone who loved him.

Archie was born on Dec. 23, 1945, in Clovis, to Alford and Melba Langford.

They have both preceded him in death.

Archie married Gynn Ancell on March 1, 1971, in Roswell. She survives him at the family home.

Pecan grower Harvey Hayek said he has watched his once-prosperous, 3,000-tree orchard in Ellinger, just south of the Fayette plant, dwindle to barely 1,000 trees. Skeletal trunks and swaths of yellowed prairie grass make up what had been a family orchard so thick the sun’s rays barely broke through the thick

Archie is survived by a son, Grant Langford, of Albuquerque; daughters: Betsy Shields and her husband, Alton, of Roswell, and Judy Cano and her husband, Josue, of El Paso, Texas; sisters, Joveta Hutto of Kyle, Texas, Melba Johnson of La Luz, and Detta Scates of Roswell; two grandchildren, Tara and Terrence Shields.

Pallbearers will be Ray Jones, David Ancell, Bert Ancell, Jimmy Sanders, Dru Sanders, Rod Price, Joe Smith and Alton Shields. Honorary pallbearers are Bob Booth, Clif f Johnson, Dennis Goodwin and Kenneth Scates.

Archie was a devoted husband, father, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend who was loved by all.

Archie was a lifelong resident of New Mexico, born in Clovis and raised here in Roswell where he was a contractor. He started Langford Tractor Work in 1977 with a riding lawnmower in the back of his pickup and for the past 30 years built it up into a thriving business that it is known as today. He was a member of Midway Assembly of God. Archie was an avid drag racing enthusiast, loved being outdoors and loved God and life in general. Those who knew Archie at all were probably a victim of one or several of his practical jokes and, his way of telling a “tall tale.”

Archie never met a stranger, and was truly a friend to all.

“Everywhere you look, it’s just dead, dead, dead,” Hayek said.

The grove that had produced 200,000 pounds of pecans annually yielded a mere 8,000 pounds this year. Hayek said as the family’s business decreased, he watched his father -in-law, Leonard Baca, fade.

Baca, 73, died after shooting himself in the head.

Retired University of Georgia plant pathologist Floyd Hendrix, who has done extensive research on sulfur dioxide damage to vegetation, said he has reviewed photographs and test results from Hayek’s grove.

“From what I’ve seen so far, there’s not any doubt in my mind that it’s SO2 injury,” Hendrix said.

Sierra Club chemist and botanist, Neil Carman also has visited the ranch. Aside from the decreased nut production, the orchard’s leaves bore telltale brown spotting associated with damage, Carman said.

Leo Lombardini, a horticulture professor at Texas A&M University who has visited Hayek’s ranch, said he could not rule out water or soil issues causing the damage.

However, he said, the ranchers in that area irrigated their orchards after being advised to do so by the university, so “in this case I don’t think that was an issue.”

Only extensive research would definitively prove whether pollution from the coalfired power plant killed the trees in that area, Lombardini said.

NEW YORK (AP) — Time Warner Cable Inc. customers from Portland, Maine, to Pensacola, Fla., could lose access to one of their network TV stations because of a contract dispute with Sinclair Broadcast Group.

The dust-up between Sinclair and Time Warner is one of a growing number of disputes over the fees that cable providers pay broadcast stations to include their signals in channel lineups. The last high-profile dispute that caused a blackout came earlier this year when Cablevision Systems Corp. customers went without Fox programming for 15 days — missing two World Series games.

In most cases, however, cable and broadcast companies have been able to avoid blackouts, even if negotiations go down the wire.

Broadcast companies used to allow cable providers to carry their channels for free and made their money selling commercial time. But competition with cable networks for ad dollars has intensified, and the recession underscored how quickly ad spending can fall off when businesses need to cut spending. Now broadcasters see these fees from cable providers as a crucial, second revenue stream.

In the latest dispute, Sinclair is asking for more cash for the right to carry signals from its stations, but Time Warner Cable is resisting the increase.

If a deal isn’t reached, 33 Sinclair stations in 21 markets could go dark for Time Warner customers after midnight Friday.

However, Fox owner News Corp. has agreed to provide Time Warner with network programming in case a local station operator withholds its signal. That resulted from an agreement a year ago between the two companies to resolve a similar dispute over fees.

NATIONAL BRIEFS LLOYD NAMED TO PRO BOWL

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.

(AP) — Brandon Lloyd put together a breakthrough season in his eighth year in the NFL, and the Denver Broncos’ deep threat with incredibly sure hands punctuated the campaign with his first Pro Bowl berth on Tuesday.

The recognition comes in the wake of a season of firsts for the wide receiver who has evolved into the Broncos’ No. 1 downfield option, whether Tim Tebow or Kyle Orton was behind center. Last year, he was so far down the depth chart that he spent the first 14 games on the inactive list before playing in the final two.

Lloyd had his moments playing previously for San Francisco, Washington and Chicago but never with any sustained consistency. His career was at a low point when he joined Denver two years ago at the urging of former Broncos coach Josh McDaniels, who was dismissed in early December.

SPOTLIGHT ON SPORTS 2007 — The New England Patriots complete a perfect regular season, finishing with a remarkable 16-0 record following a thrilling 38-35 comeback victory over the New York Giants. New England is the first NFL team since the 1972 Dolphins to win every game on the schedule, and that one was only 14-0.

Roswell boys cruise past Los Alamos Section

Roswell Daily Record

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

When you’re a team that plays in stretches, there’s one thing that is critical to your success — making sure a good stretch always comes before a bad stretch.

Roswell did that on Tuesday and it helped them win their openinground game of the Poe Cor n Invitational at the Coyote Den. The Coyotes tur ned a 16-10 second-quarter lead into a 32-12 halftime lead and cruised to a 63-35 win over Los Alamos to advance into the consolation semifinals of the annual tournament.

“It’s important,” Roswell coach Britt Cooper said about how critical it is for his team to make a run and get a comfortable cushion.

“We play too much in spurts. We’ll go on a 16-2 spurt, but we also didn’t score for 3 1/2 minutes to start the second half.

We’ve got to get better at playing more consistently.”

The latter half of the first half was the good stretch for Roswell on this night.

Fernando Lujan’s bucket with 3:25 left in the second kickstarted what turned into a 16-2 run and Roswell rode out the cushion from there.

Los Alamos got its final hoop of the first half with 2:35 left. Roswell followed that by scoring 13 points in the final 2 1/2 minutes for a 32-12 lead.

Roswell would never lead by fewer than 15 the rest of the way.

Los Alamos scored the first five of the second half, but Deyton DeLaCerda broke a nearly 3 minute scoreless drought by the Coyotes with a putback off a Jonathan Ervin miss with 5:05 left in the third.

The middle two quarters belonged to DeLaCerda, who scored 13 of his game-high 18 in the second and third quarters.

His play helped Roswell (5-2) survive a rough patch in the third quarter. He picked up his second and third fouls in less than 10 seconds with about 3 min-

utes left, but showed no fear in stepping into the lane to take a charge less than a minute later.

“He’s kind of the quarterback. We need him in there as a stabilizer, and certainly if (our opponent is) making a run,” Cooper said about DeLaCerda.

“He’s the only one with any experience, so sometimes you just want him out there to keep (the guys) doing what we’re supposed to be doing.”

DeLaCerda capped the third with back-to-back jumpers with less than 10 seconds left in the period, pushing Roswell’s lead to 44-23 going to the fourth.

The Coyotes then won the fourth, 19-9, to secure the win and move into the championship semifinals, where they will face District 4-4A foe Artesia, which beat Belen, 70-25, in the first round.

Ervin and Luis Arenivas were both in double figures with 14 and 10, respectively.

Nick Baker led Los Alamos with 10 points.

into the game, they had a 60 lead.

With 5:20 left in the first, Chaparral’s Shawn Collins hit a 15-foot jumper to cut the Goddard lead to 10-4.

After that bucket, the Rockets went on a tear, scoring the next 10 points.

Austin Rader (6) and Ruben Otero (4) scored all of the Goddard points during the run and they closed the first quarter with a 20-9 lead.

The second quarter was almost a mirror image of the first for Goddard.

The Lobos scored three points in the first 2 minutes of the quarter, but scored just six points the rest of the way as the Rockets defense forced Chaparral into seven turnovers.

At halftime, Goddard led 34-18 and was in control the game.

Otero had a big first half, scoring 14 points and Rader chipped in with 10 first-half points.

Jones said that effort and intensity are the key to Otero’s game.

“You know, Ruben is one of those kids where he’s all heart,” Jones said. “He’ll bust his butt on both ends of the court. He is vocal and he directs traffic. He just plays with a lot of energy

and that is contagious.

“That’s what he brings to the team. He really runs the floor well and I tell our kids if they’ll just run the floor, they will get eight to 10 points just on fast breaks.”

In the third quarter, Goddard’s defense got even tougher as they allowed just seven Lobo points. Offensively, the Rockets exploded for 22 points to break the game open.

Of the 22 Goddard thirdquarter points, 14 came as a direct result of a Lobo turnover, which is what Jones has been preaching to his team.

“You know, we preach to the kids that defense is our best offense,” he said. “So we challenge them every game defensively, because I think that’s where the better teams make a difference in the game. You can’t trade baskets with the better teams. You have got to have some stops and create some turnovers and we did that tonight.”

Otero finished the game with 19 points, four rebounds, four steals, four assists and two blocks.

Lane Vanderhulst had eight points and 10 rebounds for the Rockets.

Otero leads Rockets to win over Lobos LAWRENCE FOSTER RECORD SPORTS REPORTER

Stealing in the real world is frowned upon with good reason.

On the basketball court, however, it pays to be a thief and the Goddard boys basketball team’s 76-39 victory over Chaparral is a perfect example of that.

The Rockets stole 20 passes and forced 35 Lobo turnovers.

Having recently played Chaparral, Goddard knew what to expect and coach Kevin Jones told his team to be more aggressive when attacking the passing lanes.

“We told them to get more into the passing lanes,” he said. “If they did go back door, I told our down guys we had to play to the ball.

When they make that pass, we had to step in and steal it and it happened to work.

Not everything works, but it just happened to go our way tonight. The kids were more aggressive than the first time we played Chaparral.”

The Rocket defense was aggressive from the start as the first five Lobo possessions resulted in turnovers.

Goddard was able to convert those turnovers into points and less than 2 minutes

The old-saying is, a win’s a win.

For the Goddard girls basketball team, its 42-35 victory over Los Alamos was much more.

The Rockets (1-11) had lost 40 consecutive games before their victory over Hilltoppers at the Goddard Holiday Classic.

“To them it was like a championship game and I wanted them to celebrate,” Steve Notz Photo

LEFT: Members of the Goddard girls basketball team celebrate after beating Los Alamos, Tuesday. The Rocket win snapped a 40-game losing streak.

Goddard coach Greg Torres said about his team’s reaction to their win. “I wanted them to have that feeling and understand what it’s like to win a ballgame. I wanted to let them celebrate and they celebrated like they had won a championship. At the same time, when we got into the locker room I had to let them know we have to get back at it in less than 24 hours.”

After the first quarter though, it seemed as if Goddard was on its way to another loss as they fell behind 13-4 and trailed 199 at the half.

DEAR ABBY: My husband travels a lot — three to four days a week.

Sometimes when he’s intoxicated and we’re having sex, he acts like he doesn’t know who I am.

I asked him once, “Are you married?” He said, “No ...”

Another time I asked, “Do you have a girlfriend?” and he said, “No, but you’re fine ...” The next day he has no idea he said any of this. Should I be worried?

WRONG ANSWER IN CHICAGO

DEAR WRONG ANSWER: Absolutely. You should be worried not only about the fact that your husband is probably having extracurricular sex, but also that he has a drinking problem so severe he doesn’t always know who he’s sleeping with. You should be worried that after a night of drinking he can’t remember clearly the next day what he has said (or has possibly done).

If he won’t admit he has a problem and seek help, you should contact Al-Anon (it’s in your phone book, or find it online at www.al-anon.org).

And you should schedule an appointment with your physician to be tested for STDs, because I’M worried he may have given you one — or more.

My parents relocated here a few years later. When I asked if they would be living nearby, I

was told, “No way! We raised our kids already.” Hearing it felt hurtful.

As time has passed, they have made themselves available to a family who lives near them for baby-sitting and help running their business when the family is on vacation. We have asked my parents on several occasions if we could have some help watching our children, but they said they were too busy or it was too much to handle.

We feel we should take priority over “outsiders.” But when we bring up the subject, it is met with strong opposition. We just feel like we’re not good enough, and don’t know how to answer our children when they ask about their grandparents.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

DEAR ABBY: I lost my 84-year-old mother in an accident. I called Mom’s friends, many of whom are also elderly. Several of them talked on and on about their problems, their poor health, their spouses’ poor health — and one even went on and on about her hot water tank “blowing up”!

Would you please remind people that when they get a courtesy call from a grieving family member to please listen, say, “Thank you for calling to let me know,” and to offer condolences for their loss.

BEREAVED DAUGHTER, LIVONIA, N.Y. DEAR BEREAVED DAUGHTER: Allow me to offer my condolences for the loss of your mother. I’m pleased to print your letter because not everyone knows how to handle a phone call such as you had to make. It’s possible that the folks you called were either uncomfortable with the subject, and so they tried to deflect it by discussing what was going on in their lives — or they have heard about death so often at their age that they have become accustomed to hearing such sad news. (As for the woman who mentioned her water heater — I hope you were kind enough to refer her to a plumber.)

toes, and it was always a lastminute dish for me to prepare, until I came up with this idea. I cook and mash the potatoes before my guests arrive. I put the potatoes in a lightly greased casserole and put in the oven at 225 degrees for 20 minutes.

When I’m ready to serve, I put the casserole in an attractive casserole carrier. The potatoes are hot, and the dish is easy for my guests to pass.

Cleanup is easy, and I no longer have the last-minute stress of making mashed potatoes.

R.H. in Minnesota Dear Heloise: I was trying to clean a glass cake pan I had used to roast potatoes when I realized I didn’t have any abrasive cleanser. All I had was dishwashing powder. It worked great; my pan looks better than ever!

Janine in New York

Janine, dishwasher powder is super to use on bakeware. But abrasive cleanser is not. Manufacturers caution against this, because it may cause the glass to break. Also, don’t use a metal scouring pad or brush, because these will scratch the surface.

Use a plastic brush or pad.

Dear Heloise: Due to limited space, I stacked three plastic cake containers together. Bad idea — I could not get them apart. I finally thought about putting them in the freezer for a couple of hours. Worked like a charm — they came apart with no effort.

Glenda in Gastonia, N.C. Dear Heloise: After squeezing one and a half of the four lemons I had to squeeze, I was getting very annoyed at the tedium of removing the seeds.

Richard A. in Missouri

Dear Heloise: I had a pan boil dry and burn the contents. I poured vinegar in the pan, let it sit just a few minutes and scrubbed the burn out of the pan. I also had a stainless pan that had burn marks on the inside; I poured vinegar in it and scrubbed for just a few minuets. Hooray — out came the marks, and it was like a brand-new pan.

that boat before,” Torres said of the first half. “We dug ourselves a hole and we knew we had to dig ourselves out. We stepped up our defense in the third quarter, holding them to just five points. I told them I was OK with the 19 points defensively.

“In the second half, the girls just got it in their mind that they wanted to come out and make a good run at it. We cut into their lead in the third quarter and trailed by only five heading into the fourth. We had a huge fourth quarter and most of our points came at the free-throw line.

“We ended up going 12 of 15 at the line in the fourth. That’s something we don’t typically do. It’s like we’ve been telling them all year, it’s the little details that can make the difference between a loss and a win.”

Goddard will square off against Ruidoso for the third time today and Torres hopes the third time is the char m for the Rockets.

“Our girls are going to have to come out and play well against Ruidoso,” he said. “We’ll see if we can carry over today’s victory. We’re hoping that the third time is the charm.”

Roswell JV 50, Dexter 43 A poor shooting day cost the Dexter girls basketball team in its loss to the Roswell junior varsity squad on Tuesday in the second round of the Goddard Holiday Classic.

The Demons (3-9) played well enough on the defensive end to win, but couldn’t find a rhythm at the offensive end.

“We couldn’t buy a basket today,” Dexter coach Kim Hamill said. “We missed wide open 2-foot shots under neath. We couldn’t get the ball to go in no matter what we did.

But we still played hard and played well defensively.”

Dexter trailed 44-30 entering the final quarter, but turned on the defensive pressure to make it a close game.

“We started pressing and picked up our intensity in the fourth,” Hamill said. “We changed up our defense and if a couple of shots fall here or there, it’s a different outcome.”

Roswell 52, Robertson 35 The Roswell girls basketball team raced out to a 13-2 lead after the first quarter en route to a win over Las Vegas Robertson on Tuesday at the Goddard Holiday Classic.

A day after grabbing a 52-12 halftime lead, the Coyotes (8-1) once again held a big advantage at the intermission as they led 31-12.

Roswell coach Joe Carpenter said that defensive pressure led to the quick start.

“We pressured them up top with a lot of threequarter and half court pressures,” he said. “We were trying to get them to turn it over and they did.

We were fortunate to win two out of the last three quarters. We won three of the four quarters, so that’s pleasing against a strong Las Vegas team.”

Shanice Steenholdt led the Coyotes with 18 points and Desirea Allen poured in 11 points.

Vikings surprise Eagles, 24-14 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The Philadelphia Eagles got their bye a week early — and not the way they wanted.

Joe Webb threw for 195 yards and ran for a touchdown in his first career start filling in for an injured Brett Favre, and the lowly Minnesota Vikings stunned Michael Vick and the NFC East champion Eagles 2414 in the NFL’s first Tuesday game since 1946.

Adrian Peterson ran for 118 yards and a score, helping the Vikings (6-9) knock Philadelphia out of contention for a first-round playoff bye.

The Eagles (10-5) could’ve secured a first-round bye with a victory over the Vikings and Dallas and with a loss by either Chicago or Atlanta next week.

“We don’t deserve it after that performance,” Eagles coach Andy Reid said.

“Every phase was terrible.

We didn’t coach well enough. We didn’t play well enough. I’m disappointed in myself. It’s embarrassing.”

Now the Eagles are locked into the NFC’s No. 3 seed and will host the No. 6 seed on Jan. 8 or 9. Their final game against the Cowboys is meaningless in the standings, so it’s likely Vick and most of the starters will rest.

Smith: Atlanta must stay true to core principles

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) — Coach Mike Smith says the Atlanta Falcons take pride in three core principles.

Win the turnover battle. Win third downs.

Win time of possession.

The Falcons did none of those in Monday night’s 17-14 loss to New Orleans and missed a chance to clinch the No. 1 playoff seed and win the NFC South.

They still can accomplish both of those goals with a victory Sunday against Carolina, but Smith sees a long list of problems that need correcting.

Foremost is eliminating unforced errors.

Running back Michael Turner mishandled the ball on second-and-goal at the 1.

Center Todd McClure muffed a snap from a shotgun formation.

“It’s very uncharacteristic of our football team this season,” Smith said Tuesday.

“There’s no doubt about it. They unfortunately happened at the worst time, but we have to overcome those plays later in the ballgame.”

Smith reminded the players and coaches that the Falcons can’t take for granted that they will always achieve their core principles.

If the offense has a giveaway, the defense must get a takeaway. If the defense allows opponents to convert several third downs, the offense must respond.

That is how Atlanta (12-3) usually wins the time of possession battle, a category in which the Falcons rank fourth.

Offensively, the running game stalled.

Turner broke off a 27-yard run in the second quarter, but averaged 1.3 yards on his other 16 carries. With New Orleans stacking its line with eight or nine defenders, Turner couldn’t reach the second level of the defense.

Smith gave credit to Saints coach Sean Payton and defensive coordinator Gregg Williams for executing their game plan.

“They did some things of slanting, moving their line, and it was effective,” Smith said. “My hat’s off to Sean and his staff.

They won the ballgame last night.”

Third downs in the passing attack were undermined by a Saints scheme that double-teamed tight end Tony Gonzalez and took away receiver Roddy White’s deep threat by shadowing him behind cornerback Jabari Greer.

“We know who they want to get the ball to, and the main thing was that we stopped their running attack and didn’t allow Turner to get going,” New Orleans safety Darren Sharper said. “Once we did that, it made our jobs a lot easier.

“It forced them to start throwing the ball.”

Defensively, Smith was generally pleased outside of the Saints’ winning drive, which covered 90 yards in 13 plays and con-

snowflake visible at the Linc. The game was switched from Sunday because of a howling storm that dumped about a foot of snow in the area — perhaps a good idea considering Philadelphia’s history of snowball-throwing fans.

But 42 years after fans got a bum rap for tossing snowballs at Santa — the man in the costume said it was playful pelting — the Eagles said snowballs didn’t factor in the decision to move the game.

“There were a lot of issues considered, but that was absolutely not among them,” said Pamela Browner White, the Eagles senior vice president of public affairs and government relations.

Nine days after rallying from a 21-point deficit in the final 7:18 to beat the New York Giants on DeSean Jackson’s 65-yard punt return on the final play, there would be no miracle at the Linc for the Eagles.

The Vikings looked more like a team with a lot at stake rather than a group that’s ready to hit the golf courses and tropical resorts. The win could help interim coach Leslie Frazier get the job permanently.

Vick, selected as the NFC Pro Bowl starter shortly before the game, mostly struggled after his 3-yard TD pass to Clay Harbor in the first quarter gave the

Eagles a 7-0 lead. He lost two fumbles, threw an interception and was sacked six times.

Vick has been battered in recent games and he looked gimpy, gingerly walking to the huddle and off the field most of the night.

Trailing 17-7 to start the fourth quarter, the Eagles cut the deficit to 3 when Vick scored on a 10-yard TD run. But the Vikings answered on the ensuing drive. Peterson ran in from the 1 to put Minnesota up 24-14 with 6:43 left. The Pro Bowl running back showed no signs of the right knee injury that had him listed as questionable.

Favre was inactive for the Vikings because of a concussion, missing his second game in three weeks after an NFL-record 297 consecutive regular-season starts.

He watched in street clothes on the sideline and enthusiastically thrust his arms in the air when Webb scored a TD. The 41-year-old Favre got hurt last week against the Chicago Bears and was listed as doubtful. Frazier said on Monday that Favre still hadn’t passed initial concussion testing.

The Vikings tied it at 7 in the final minute of the first half when Antoine Winfield sacked Vick, knocked the ball loose and returned the fumble 45 yards for a score.

sumed 7:11 of the fourth quarter.

After that long drive, Atlanta couldn’t sustain a drive of its own and Smith punted, giving the ball back to New Orleans with 2:44 to play.

Smith doesn’t regret punting after a three-and-out possession.

“I think that’s how you have to approach it, and I know it’s going to be a conversation piece because it was a crucial time in the football game,” he said. “But I’d do it again.”

Atlanta defense wants to do things differently against Carolina.

Fatigue eventually set in against New Orleans and tackling suffered. The defense usually takes about 60 snaps a game, it took 73 against the Saints.

Players wore down and even before that, couldn’t — or didn’t — wrap up Drew Brees.

Several times Atlanta pass rushers had open lanes to disrupt the Saints quarterback, but he often stepped calmly aside, kept his eyes on receivers and completed passes.

‘Tell Me About ‌’

Getting to Know You One of the best things about the holiday season is spending time with family and friends. For some people, it’s the only time of year when they see loved ones who live far away.

For 2011, you could make a resolution, or promise, to get to know family and friends better. You can do that by becoming an interviewer.

This is sort of like being a reporter, but instead of you building the story, you let loved ones tell their own stories.

The Mini Page talked with some professional interviewers to find out more about this process.

Experts say a good place to start an interview is with questions about old photographs. Ask your family if there is an old scrapbook or box of pictures you can use during your interview.

from The Mini Page Š 2010 Universal Uclick

Why ask questions?

When you interview a friend or family member, you are making history.

Whether your interview is saved in your own notes, on an audio recorder or a video recorder, the words will be there for others to learn from and enjoy. Maybe your own kids will someday read the stories you collected.

Sometimes we forget that older relatives were once young and went to school and played with friends.

Interviewing an older person helps us see that Grandma or Uncle Paul is not just an old person, but a real person.

It doesn’t matter whether you are related to your interview subject. You might have a kind neighbor or a special teacher whom you’d like to find out more about.

Xtranormal charges for formerly free cartoon tools SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Animation website Xtranormal — whose cartoon-making tools have spawned viral videos of cuddly puppies debating such topics as quantitative easing and the iPhone in stilted monotones — is no longer of fering free, unlimited use of its tools.

The change reflects the higher costs of running Xtranormal as the site’s popularly grew.

More than 2 million people now use its simple moviemaking tools, up from about 500,000 in June.

According to Xtranor mal, those users have published about 9.3 million videos so far.

But it made a number of characters and settings free to use, and only about 1 percent of users bought items. Now Xtranormal charges for all characters and sets, and for publishing videos for sharing, which used to always be free.

The minimum purchase is now $10 for 1,200 points — it used to be $5 for 300 points — though new users get 300 for free and can earn points for such tasks as getting friends to use Xtranormal.

Characters and backdrops, known as sets, cost 37 to 150 points, and publishing costs 100. A previously free movie using two puppies standing in a

Then, as now, the videos don’t include ads beyond an “Xtranormal” logo in the bottom left corner, and any characters and sets you buy are yours to use in other movies.

Users who signed up for the site before Thursday and already paid for characters or sets will be able to publish videos using those items for free until Feb. 1.

Bruno Langlais, Xtranormal’s vice president of marketing, said the company had to impose the new charges so it can become profitable quickly.

Xtranormal expects to turn a profit for the first time in the first half of 2011.

Every movie users make costs

Xtranormal, he said. This rises as the site gets more users.

reasons to stick close to home. If you are single, you also do need to go out. You are more likely to meet someone while out and about. Tonight: Catch up with friends.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Someone is impervious to your messages. Try as you might, you cannot break through. Instead of trying or triggering, just forget it.

This person will not relate until he or she is ready. This afternoon, clear your desk and finish a project. You are unusually efficient. Tonight: Head home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) A financial matter might get the best of you, perhaps creating a lot of negativity. You wonder what to do. Focus on communication; speak about what is bothering you. Others might have suggestions that open up your creativity. Brainstorm away. Tonight: Visit with friends — on the phone, in person or in a chat room.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Someone finds you to be very difficult at this moment. As a result, this person could blow up as you rarely have seen. Know that it is not just him or her; it takes two to cause such an explosion. If you are handling your finances, trust your judgment in this area. Tonight: Buy a token of affection on the way home.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Refuse to take someone’s words personally. You could become very angry if you do. Defer the whole comment; deal with it in a few days. The afternoon sees you energized and magnetic. Discussions become quite animated. Tonight:

“freemium” model in June. Many more people discovered the site and tried it out because enough of it was free and easy to use.

The latest change could backfire, though, if current users — those who boosted the site’s popularity through their videos — become incensed by the change and stop using it.

Langlais doesn’t believe this will happen: He said Xtranormal polled users before making the change and found them supportive.

He also pointed out that Xtranormal has revamped its online video-making tool to showcase more of the options users have when creating cartoons and, perhaps, entice them to buy more characters and sets.

Whatever knocks the Scorp’s socks off!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Zero in on your priorities this morning. You still could hit a snafu.

Give yourself a day or so before trying to dislodge the issue. Use the afternoon for quiet work or for where your intuition is needed. Tonight: Get extra R and R. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Assume the lead once more, but also know that eventually you will step down and relax. Let others know this, too. Use this afternoon for getting together with others. Note where and with whom you feel the most comfortable. Tonight: Where the fun is, of course.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) T ake an overview. Detach or imagine what it is like to be the other person. This afternoon, clear out some must-do’s.

Check in with a boss and/or older relative or friend.

Tonight: Know that, without question, you are leader of the gang.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A partner or someone key to your life could be very difficult. Let go. You also don’t have support from as many people as you might like. Detach in the afternoon. Pretend you are someone else. You might see life quite dif ferently.

Tonight: Follow the music.
