City’s land lease temporarily halted MATTHEW ARCO RECORD STAFF WRITER

GIFFORDS IS IMPROVING

January 18, 2011

Roswell’s mayor is standing by his and other city officials’ decision to temporarily reject bid proposals for leasing city land to outside sources, following an eleventh hour plea from a Chaves County commissioner to toss the bids and reconsider the agenda item.

The vote took place during the council’s Jan. 13 regular monthly meeting.

Mayor Del Jurney said Monday that he and the city councilors who

voted to reject the bids acted appropriately, despite concerns from other officials who called the last-minute decision unfair to the other bidders.

“I think it’s our responsibility to maximize our opportunities, especially with our real estate assets,” said Jurney, four days after his tiebreaking vote on the Kerr Ranch lease.

The city retains the roughly 3,500 acres of land for its water rights, but leases it to outside sources who typically use the property for grazing cattle. The council

voted 4-4 on Thursday to reject the bids after the land’s current occupant, Commissioner Kim Chesser, told councilors that his use of the land goes beyond using it simply for grazing purposes.

City staff recommended that the bid be awarded to someone other than the county of ficial, who offered about $1,500 less for the property than the highest bidder.

According to state procurement code, of ficials are required to accept the lowest bid for services and the highest bid when dealing with selling city services.

Chesser, who operates a guest house on his ranch that offers outsiders from around the globe a glimpse inside the life of ranchers, explained to councilors that his business — the Burnt Well Guest Ranch — brings worldwide attention to Roswell. He argued that the bidding process didn’t take other benefits to leasing the property into account.

“I did not receive the bid,” said Chesser, during the meeting. “But,

National and local politicians joined members of the King family at Ebenezer Baptist Church in Atlanta to mark what would have been the civil rights icon’s 82nd birthday. Members of the King family also laid a wreath at the tombs of King and his widow, Coretta Scott King, on the 25th anniversary of the federal holiday established to honor the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize winner.

The Roswell Police Department has begun actively recruiting more officers.

The RPD has 12 positions to fill, although two people have received conditional offers.

“They still have to undergo psychological and medical evaluations and the final interview,” said Travis Holley, public information of ficer for the Roswell Police Department.

The vacancies have been created in a number of ways. “It’s part of natural attrition. We have people leave to go to other agencies. We have had some unfortunate firings. ... We have had two people promoted which creates spaces at the bottom,” said Holley.

“It’s important that we recruit top quality people,” Holley said, adding that new recruits must have a clean criminal record, a clean driving record and a good work history.

In addition, they must be a U.S. citizen, have a high school diploma and be at least 21 years of age and men must be registered with the selective service.

“We don’t need perfect people,” Holley said.

“Everybody has a history, but we need honest people.

ATLANTA (AP) — The nation observed the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday on Monday with thousands volunteering for service projects and more reflecting on his lessons of nonviolence and civility in the week following the shootings in Arizona.

Six people were killed in Tucson and Democratic Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords is fighting for her life. The violent outburst was a reminder to many gathered at King’s former church in Atlanta that the Baptist preacher’s message remained relevant nearly four decades after his own untimely death at the hands of an assassin.

Attor ney General Eric Holder praised him as “our nation’s great-

est drum major of peace” and said the Jan. 8 bloodshed was a call to recommit to King’s values of nonviolence, tolerance, compassion and justice.

“Last week a senseless rampage in Tucson reminded us that more than 40 years after Dr. King’s own tragic death, our struggle to eradicate violence and to promote peace goes on,” Holder said.

President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle volunteered to paint for a service project at a middle school in Washington’s Capitol Hill.

He urged Americans to get out into their communities — a step he suggested would have special meaning following the shootings.

Educators rally Stolen items placed on view against budget cuts at the Roundhouse JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

SANTA FE (AP) — On the eve of a new legislative session, Republican Gov. Susana Martinez and educational groups were on a collision course over budget cuts and tax increases.

More than 300 educators, parents and children rallied at the Capitol on Monday against budget proposals by the governor and a legislative committee to reduce spending on schools and colleges. They called for tax increases to provide additional money for public education.

The Legislature convenes Tuesday for a 60-day session that will be dominated by financial issues because the state faces a budget shortfall of up to $400 million next year.

“Our lawmakers must do what it takes to raise revenues instead of cutting education no matter how politically uncomfortable it is ... because our children are worth it,” Christine Trujillo, president of the American Federation of Teachers-New Mexico, said at the rally.

She and others suggested raising taxes on liquor, upper-income New Mexicans or large corporations.

As rally participants cheered the calls for tax increases, Martinez was in Albuquerque vowing to oppose higher taxes to balance the budget.

“Instead of digging deeper into the pockets of New Mexico families and small businesses, what we have to do is change how the state spends money,” Martinez said at a news conference. “We are not undertaxed. The state govSee LEGISLATURE, Page A3

Roswell Police Department placed items confiscated from area burglaries on display Monday, at the Unity Center, 1500 W. College Blvd. in Cielo Grande Park.

Detectives obtained the items while serving an arrest warrant.

All totaled, the RPD has recovered nearly $33,000 in stolen goods since Dec. 30. Many items came from the burglaries of storage units.

Nearly 100 people had gone to view the display before noon on Monday.

The event will last two days.

“We had a line of some 50 to 60 people earlier today,” said Detective Kim Northcutt.

According to investigating Detective Albert Aldana, five people were able to reclaim items and two police reports were completed.

Police suspect the confiscated goods come from a number of dif ferent burglaries.

Giffords smiles; contines improving

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — The husband of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords says his wife’s condition has improved so much that she has been able to smile and give him a neck rub as he has kept a near -constant vigil at her hospital bedside.

The interactions with astronaut Mark Kelly are new signs of Gif fords’ impressive progress in recovering from a gunshot wound to the head at a political event nine days ago. Giffords still cannot speak, because of a tube in her throat that is helping her breathe.

“She’s in the ICU. You know, gone through this traumatic injury. And she spent 10 minutes giving me a neck massage,” Kelly explained in an interview with Diane Sawyer to air Tuesday on ABC. “It’s so typical of her that no matter how bad the situation might be for her, you know, she’s looking out for other people.”

Such encounters indicate higher levels of functioning, implying that “she’s recognizing him and interacting, perhaps in an old familiar way with him,” said Dr. Michael Lemole.

Dr. Randall Friese said Kelly also told doctors he saw Giffords smile. He said sometimes people see what they want to see, but that “if he says she’s smiling, I buy it.”

Kelly has also been helping Giffords’ staff through the tragedy, said Mark Kimble, a Tucson staf f member who stood only a few feet from Giffords when she was shot.

“There is not a doubt in his mind and not a doubt in any of our minds that she’s going to be back,” Kimble said. “He’s been cheering us up. He’ll come over and when we’re down, he’ll say, ‘Gabby’s going to make it, Gabby’s a little better today.’ That’s a big help to all of us.”

The steady progress for Giffords came on the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday to remember the legacy of the civil rights leader who was killed by an assassin’s bullet 42 years ago.

Political leaders invoked the assassination attempt against Giffords as they asked Americans to recommit to King’s values of nonviolence, tolerance, compassion and justice.

“Last week a senseless rampage in Tucson reminded us that more than 40 years after Dr. King’s own tragic death, our struggle to eradicate violence and to promote peace goes on,” Attorney General Eric Holder said at King’s for mer church in Atlanta.

Doctors upgraded Giffords’ condition from critical to serious over the weekend and say they carried out three successful procedures that demonstrate she is recovering well.

Burglary reported

A good Samaritan called the police to the 100 block of South Lea Avenue on Monday, when a burglar alarm woke him. The police cleared the scene, but were unable to talk to the residents. Police investigation revealed pry marks on the door, but nothing appeared to be missing from the home.

• Police were dispatched to the 200 block of South Pennsylvania Avenue on Sunday, after someone broke a window while the victim was inside the residence. Nothing was taken; however, the victim feared that the subjects would gain entry into the home.

Window replacement costs are estimated at $50.

Noise complaint

Police were called to the 1100 block of South Kentucky Avenue, Saturday, following the report of a disturbance. Officials made contact with the individual inside the residence where the noise originated. The subject stated she was blowing a horn to scare away the evil spirits that had been urinating inside her stove.

Threatening phone calls

Police were called to the 600 block of South Hemlock Avenue on Sunday, where a family was receiving a series of harassing calls. The victim reported that the calls had started on Thursday. The caller made sexual noises and threats. The victim did not know who the caller might be, but said she heard the sound of children playing in the background.

Missing person

The police were dispatched to Eastern New Mexico Medical Center on Saturday, after a patient left the building. He was last seen wearing a hospital gown, and he had an IV port. Hospital personnel are concerned and would like the patient to return because the risk of infection with the IV port is high.

Criminal damage

A good Samaritan called the police to the 500 block of East Albuquerque Street on Saturday, when they heard the sound of breaking glass and saw subjects smashing windows on a vehicle. The person reporting the incident said the subjects left in a 2000 blue Chevy side-step pickup.

Two unidentified women pause at a makeshift memorial outside the office of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords in Tucson, Ariz., on Monday. Giffords is recovering from a gunshot wound to the head suffered at a political event nine days ago outside a Tucson grocery store. Six people were killed and 13 others were injured.

A breathing tube was moved from her mouth to her throat along with a separate feeding tube that was shifted from her nose to her stomach. Dr. Randall Friese said removing the tubes in her nose and mouth reduces the risks of infections.

Doctors also said they performed a surgery on Giffords’ eye socket to remove bone fragments to relieve pressure on her eye. There were no complications from the surgery; doctors needed to perform the eye procedure all along but waited until her condition improved to do it.

Elsewhere, doctors have transplanted the corneas from the youngest victim of the Jan. 8 shooting that left a total of six dead and 13 wounded. Christina Taylor Green’s father said Monday that the Donor Network of Arizona told him and his wife that the transplants from the 9-year -old have saved the eyesight of two children.

Also, more details emerged Monday about one

of the shooting victims who became distraught and was arrested during a televised town hall meeting.

James Eric Fuller, a military veteran and selfdescribed liberal, started ranting at the end of the program Saturday. He took a picture of Tucson tea party leader T rent Humphries and yelled “you’re dead.”

Fuller apologized Monday through his girlfriend, Dorothy Deruyter. Fuller has been in a hospital since being involuntarily committed Saturday for a mental health evaluation but wrote a statement and called Deruyter, who read it to The Associated Press on Monday.

Fuller apologized to Humphries for his “misplaced outrage.”

“It was not in the spirit of our allegiance and warm feelings of each other as citizens of this great country,” Fuller said in the statement.

The suspect in the shooting, 22-year -old Jared Loughner, remained jailed

in a federal lockup in Phoenix. Investigators have described him as a mentally unstable man who was kicked out of a community college last year and became increasingly erratic in recent months.

He apparently became obsessed with inflicting violence on Gif fords since attending one of her campaign events in 2007.

Kelly said he would be willing to meet with the parents of Loughner, who have remained in seclusion since the shooting. Kelly, who has two teenage daughters from a previous marriage, said the parents have to be in a tremendous amount of pain.

“I don’t think it’s their fault. It’s not the parents fault,” Kelly told ABC. “You know, I’d like to think I’m a person that’s, you know, somewhat forgiving. And, I mean, they’ve got to be hurting in this situation as much as much as anybody.”

“WHAT IS THE MLS”

by Connie DeNio of Roswell 622-7191 or 626-7948

If you’re buying or selling a home you probably have heard the term Multiple Listing Service, or MLS, but maybe you’re not quite sure what it means.

Multiple Listing Service is a cooperative listing organization formed by local real estate companies to share the listings they receive from sellers.

Listing brokers enter information into the MLS computer - information

which is then immediately available to every real estate office on the MLS system.

This way, a buyer can work with only one broker who has access to all properties listed and who can identify homes which fit the buyer’s needs and price range. When a property is sold, the listing broker and the selling broker share the commission.©

Police were dispatched to the 1600 block of South Madison Avenue on Saturday, after a woman discovered jewelry, worth $5,115, missing from her home.

Home invasion case nearing conclusion

A home invasion case, in which multiple subjects forced their way into a home on Resolana Drive on Jan. 13, is moving toward a conclusion, according to Travis Holley, public information officer for the Roswell Police Department.

“We’ve recovered the vehicle, along with some other evidence,” Holley said.

The vehicle, a 2010 white Kia Sportage, was found in a parking lot, although Holley was unwilling to say which one.

“We would welcome any additional information,” said Holley.

People should contact Crime Stoppers at 1-888594-4877, or the RPD. Those with information leading to an arrest may be eligible for a reward.

Visitors to the Burnt Well Guest Ranch are taken onto city property to drive cattle.

The nearly hour -long discussion regarding the bid during the council meeting raised concern from some city officials, who said they didn’t agree with changing paths so late in the process.

“I do not think it is fair to other citizens to go through a bid process and then after the process has taken its course ... to change ball games,” said Councilor Jason Perry on Monday, chairman of the Building and Lands Committee.

“It was too late,” he said. “At the end, you just can’t change.”

Perry, along with Councilors Barry Foster, Steve Henderson and Art Sandoval voted against rejecting the bids. Councilors Dusty Huckabee, Bob Maples, Judy Stubbs and Elena Velasquez voted in favor of the action.

The bid was prepared to be awarded to Steve Oldfield, the highest bidder.

“I’m upset about the deal,” Oldfield said. “It just seems odd that he did not get the bid, (but) he was able to change it within a weeks time. I don’t know.”

The mayor and council indicated during the meeting that city staff would likely rebid the Kerr Ranch lease as a request for proposal, which would allow other factors to be taken into consideration to determine a bidder’s overall value.

“Really, what we’re learning is that in a lot of dif ferent areas, the low bid — or, the high bid in this case — is not always the best opportunity,” Jurney said.

The mayor added that he doesn’t think that the last-minute decision to reject the bids was unfair.

Two of the Kings’ four children, Martin Luther King III and the Rev. Bernice King attended Monday’s ceremony. Their brother, Dexter King, was unable to attend the service because he is recovering from injuries he received in a car crash last year. Yolanda King, the eldest of the King siblings, died in 2007. Bernice King is also president-elect of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, which her father co-founded in 1957.

Rep. John Lewis of Georgia, who worked with King during the civil rights movement, issued a renewed call for Americans to unite in peace and love as King preached during his lifetime.

“If Dr. King could speak to us today, he would tell us that it does not matter how much we disapprove of another person’s point of view, there is never a reason to deny another human being the respect he or she deserves,” Lewis said.

The Rev. Raphael Warnock, pastor of Ebenezer, called for members of Congress to show solidarity during the State of the Union Address this month. Quoting the Bible and Abraham Lincoln, Warnock said, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.”

“Maybe after Arizona what our children need to see is us sitting together,” Warnock said.

Public schools account for the largest share of the state budget — about $2.4 billion this year — even though the state has cut school spending by about 7 percent since the 2009 fiscal year. Lawmakers avoided deeper cuts by using nearly $300 million in temporary federal economic stimulus money to replace aid for school operations.

Stephanie DeBellis, a kindergarten teacher in Albuquerque, said her class sizes have increased because of budget cuts.

“Parents, children and school employees have given and given to this state to shore up the budget ... in the name of shared sacrifice, but today that is no longer acceptable. We have cut to the bone,” she said at the rally.

Coloradans marked the day with marches and parades in Denver and Greeley, and the National Western Stock Show was set to host its annual Martin Luther King Jr. African-American Heritage Rodeo on Monday evening.

In South Carolina, the day was an opportunity for the NAACP to underscore its opposition to a Confederate flag that flies outside the Statehouse. It was moved from atop the Capitol dome in 2000 after protests by the group.

“Take down that flag,” North Carolina NAACP president, the Rev. William Barber, told the audience at a rally in Columbia. He argued the flag’s presence disrespects people not only in South Carolina but across the nation.

But the South Carolina commander of Sons of Confederate Veterans disagreed.

“They have the right to view it any way they wish. ...

But I’m telling you it is. It is our heritage, and we will honor it,” said Mark Simpson of Spartanburg, whose great-great-grandfather was a Confederate soldier.

In Maine, Gov. Paul LePage changed plans and attended a King memorial breakfast just days after saying critics could “kiss my butt.”

King is the only American who was not a U.S. president to have a federal holiday named in his honor. He has been recognized on the third Monday in January since 1986.

The governor also will deliver her first State of the State address to a joint session of the House and Senate.

Cervantes is trying to assemble a coalition of Republicans and Democrats to oust Lujan, who has served as speaker for a decade.

Republicans picked up eight seats in the general election, narrowing the Democratic advantage in the House to 37-33.

Cervantes predicted that a majority of Republicans would support a change in the House leadership, but said he had not agreed to any power-sharing arrangement with Republicans if he’s elected speaker. No Republican, he said, would be named as a committee chairman.

“I am a Democrat. I am proud to be a Democrat. I’ve made very clear to my Republican colleagues that I am going to try and advance a ... Democratic Party agenda but I would like to do so with a new commitment to ethics, a new commitment to openness and transparency,” said Cervantes.

Jack Schmitt would be a poor fit in energy department

After announcing a string of appointees with solid professional credentials, the new governor made her first purely political pick. Harrison “Jack” Schmitt has little in his resume to support the decisions he would need to make as secretary of the Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department.

He is, however, a luminary among conservatives for publicly denouncing the many who believe global warming is human-caused.

Some might agree with him, but we need to ask how his convictions will serve New Mexicans.

Everyone knows Schmitt was an astronaut and the last man to walk on the moon. Educated as a geologist (Cal Tech and Harvard), he was the only scientist astronaut. Some may remember that he served one unremarkable term from 1977 to 1982 as U.S. senator from New Mexico and was voted out of office after showing scant interest in New Mexico

issues.

Schmitt then faded from the public eye — consulting, writing and speaking, teaching engineering physics at the University of Wisconsin. From 1994 to 1998, he became chairman and president of the Annapolis Center for Science-Based Public Policy, which has questioned the impacts of fossil fuels on climate, air pollution on asthma and crop pesticide residues on health.

In 2008, Schmitt resigned abruptly as chair man of the NASA Advisory Council. A month later he left the Planetary Society over differences in goals for the

space program and views of global warming.

“I am sorry, but I can no longer support the society in its goals as they seem to have gone back to being more political than rational,” he wrote in a widely circulated email.

He questioned the consensus that “humans are causing global warming when human experience, geologic data and history, and current cooling can argue otherwise. ‘Consensus,’ as many have said, merely represents the absence of definitive science. You know as well as I, the ‘global warming scare’ is being used as a political tool to increase government control over American lives, incomes and decision making. It has no place in the Society’s activities.”

Schmitt drew more attention in 2009 when he spoke at the rightleaning Heartland Institute’s International Conference on Cli-

mate Change, an event for doubters. (The institute describes Schmitt as a “global warming expert,” even though he’s not a climate scientist and has never published a peer -reviewed paper.) There he described himself as a true denier of humancaused global war ming. “The conclusion seems inescapable that nature produces the primary influences on climate,” he said.

Schmitt criticized the Intergover nmental Panel on Climate Change and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, saying, “There is no historical or scientific basis” to believe CO2 increases were responsible for climate change. In an interview with Fox News, he continued his assault.

Back in the limelight for the first time since his moon-walk days, “Schmitt seemed to revel in his status as a doubter of manmade climate change,” observed a

conservative publication in Denver.

If confir med, Schmitt the denier can hold forth as a cabinet secretary, and Democrats have already opened fire. My purpose isn’t to re-argue climate change, but we need to ask if an ideologue can effectively steer sensitive negotiations and set state policy.

The infamous pit rule, for example, grew out of legitimate concern for ground water. It was a heavy-handed solution and needs to be rewritten, but that will require diplomacy. Energy producers can argue that it’s their turn, that they’ve suffered at the hands of ideologues, but is it progress to shift from industry lawsuits to environmental lawsuits?

The public wants to see meaningful compromise, not more litigation, but compromise doesn’t appear to be Schmitt’s strong suit. © New Mexico News Services 2011

Obama in Arizona

A little girl was buried Thursday in Tucson, Ariz.

Christina Taylor Green was 9. She was an A student, a member of her student council, born on Sept. 11, 2001, and, as a result, interested in American politics.

“She saw public service as something exciting and hopeful,” President Barack Obama said at a memorial service Wednesday night.

The tragedy at that shopping center in Arizona revealed some of what is worst in America. But also what is best. Courage.

Selflessness. The need to comfort. The need to heal.

Daniel Hernandez, a young aide to U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, ran to her when he heard the gunshots. He gave basic first aid, covering her wounds with his bare hands, sitting her upright so that she wouldn’t choke on her own blood. He likely saved her life.

Dorwan and Mary Stoddard were in the crowd, waiting to hear what their elected representative had to say. Dorwan dove on top of his wife when the shooter opened fire.

He lost his life, but he saved hers.

In each of these stories, and in dozens more that day, is an element of instinctive heroism and goodness.

Obama honored their sacrifice and then said that reflecting on how we talk to one another would be a fitting way to remember the dead: “If this tragedy prompts reflection and debate — as it should — let’s make sure it’s worthy of those we have lost. ... Let us remember it is not because a simple lack of civility caused this tragedy — it did not — but rather because only a more civil and honest public discourse can help us face up to the challenges of our nation in a way that would make them proud.”

And he called on Americans to look to the idealism of this child and, perhaps, recapture their own.

Echoing the biblical reference about faith, the president said: “She saw all this through the eyes of a child, undimmed by the cynicism or vitriol that we adults all too often just take for granted. I want to live up to her expectations. I want our democracy to be as good as Christina imagined it.”

The losses in Arizona are unalterable.

What comes next is not.

Tragedy in Tucson touched countless lives

TUCSON, Ariz. — Stationed in front of the University of Arizona Medical Center for three days covering the tragic massacre that took the lives of six people and left 13 wounded, including U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, I got to see firsthand what it is to show compassion.

The front lawn was full of flowers, candles, pictures and heartfelt messages of support for the victims. People from different walks of life, political ideologies, socio-economic levels and ethnic backgrounds came to pay their respects.

Most of them didn’t know any of the victims, yet they felt

as if one of their own had been attacked. “Gabby Giffords is a good woman; she cares about Latinos,” one woman told me, who’d arrived with her husband and youngest daughter. But tears rolled down her face when she began to talk about little Christina Taylor Greene, the

9-year-old who was killed in the shooting.

“I have a daughter her age and son 18 years old. To think of having a child like mine killed by someone close to his age is frightening,” she said.

“What is happening in our country, this is the type of violence you see in Third World countries,” she added.

All loss of life is tragic, but the killing of someone so young with such a promising future was particularly unsettling. Christina was a bright and active child who was the only girl on her Little League Baseball team. She had just been elected to the student

council and was interested in politics. Her neighbor believed it would be a good experience for her to meet Giffords. They held hands as they stood in line waiting to greet her, when the shooting began. The neighbor survived and is healing from her wounds, but the emotional recovery will most likely take longer.

At Mesa Verde Elementary School, where Christina was in the third grade, there were flowers and stuffed animals hanging on the gate, and signs that read “Christina, we will miss you.”

DEAR DR. GOTT: I am begging for help, please. I am 73 years old and have lost 120 pounds on Weight Watchers. My problem is that when I walk, take a bath, get excited, angry or upset, I break out in hives that look like measles. And they’re so itchy!

I have been to a few doctors, and they tell me to take antihistamine tablets, but I cannot tolerate them. I need to walk to keep my weight down and my “new” knees working. This started four years ago after having bilateral knee replacement, but I’m not sure if there is any connection. I walked three miles a day before but cannot do that any longer.

DEAR READER: Hives are red or white, raised, itchy welts that appear on the skin. They can be either acute or chronic. Acute hives can last from several minutes to up to six weeks. Chronic hives last longer — perhaps for more than six months. As a general rule, hives are harmless and don’t leave any lasting marks, even when left untreated.

A condition known as angioedema resembles hives but is more serious. It occurs deeper in the skin and can present with swelling, blisters, pain, abdominal cramping, severe swelling of the face, arms, hands, legs, feet and genitalia and, in severe cases, dif ficulty swallowing and/or breathing.

Both conditions are triggered when mast cells release histamine and other chemicals into the bloodstream and skin. Causes might include exposure to latex, pollen, animal dander, insect stings, shellfish, nuts, most medications, heat, cold, sunlight, emotional stress, exercise and a host of other possibilities. Hives and angioedema can occur in response to the body’s production of antibodies because

of immune-system disorders such as cancer, lupus, some thyroid disorders, hepatitis and other infections, and the common cold. Hereditary angioedema is linked with low levels or the abnormal functioning of specific blood proteins that play a rule in regulating how the immune system functions.

If symptoms of either condition occur regularly and your physician cannot deter mine the cause, try a patch test, where an allergen is applied to the patch that is placed on the skin. Latex and medication reactions might be discovered. An intradermal test uses purified allergen extracts that are injected into the skin of the arm and will likely See GOTT, Page A5

Medicare or Medicaid? Learn which one does what

The most knowledgeable people in town use these two ter ms, Medicare and Medicaid, interchangeably, but they are as different as Heineken and Old Milwaukee.

Medicare is a federal program, the same in every state, mostly for your hospital and doctor bills, for a short nursing home stay, and for drugs, all once you hit 65.

Medicaid is a state program, essentially welfare, great for all ages, covering drugs, doctors, hospitals and long nursing home stays, different in every state, and you only get it when you have “spent down.” Maybe you were born spent down, in which case you understand the meaning already, that being broke flatter than gravy on a plate (the old cowboys mentioned a fluid other than gravy). This is the first in a many-part series on M&Ms, mostly Medicaid, after we introduce Medicare this time. Quite frankly, Medicare is not very interesting. Think you know the difference yet? Let’s see, there’s Medicare and Old Milwaukee.

TOM

DUNLAP ELDER LAW TIDBITS

Right!

Medicare is boring because you don’t have a lot of input with respect to how it affects you. If you are 65 and still alive, Medicare will pay for its approved portion of your hospital stay and doctor bills, most of 20-100 days or so for rehab in a nursing home, and after that then it is up to the doctor, nursing home or hospital to decide whether they will sue you for the balance.

Many doctors and institutions need your money more than you do, and they have lawyers and collection agencies to help them get it.

Some doctors and hospitals won’t come after you for the part

that Medicare won’t pay because they accept Medicare assignment.

Medicare bases its approval on what the government considers a reasonable charge on a regional basis. Hopefully, you can afford a Medicare supplement insurance policy to cover most charges that Medicare will not approve. A little long-term care insurance helps too if you are younger, healthy and want to pay. The new health care law may phase in some longterm care options, and it will definitely phase in colorectal screening, mammograms and annual checkups under Medicare. Ask your doctor. Medicare also offers a prescription drug benefit called Medicare Part D. If you have questions about Medicare then call the number (1-800 Medicare), or the number on their paperwork, or visit them on their website, www.medicare.gov. If you want a face-to-face with an expert, then call Senior Circle and find when Lucas Zurtuche of the New Mexico Aging Department is making his monthly visit (he also comes

to The J.O.Y. Center periodically), or you can call him at 1-800-7628690 or 575-647-2023. Another resource is your local congressman’s office. If you think your doctor, hospital, home care provider or any kind of medical service provider is ripping off Medicare then that means they are ripping off us all, since we, as taxpayers, fund the entire program. Report suspicions of fraud to the fraud numbers on your paperwork.

Enough on Medicare, except to say that if I live long enough to get it then I’ll finally be able to get myself a checkup and fix whatever’s broke. In the meantime, my remedy is good, clean living and plenty of Old Milwaukee. Dad was waiting until 65 to get his heart fixed so he could have Medicare coverage instead of losing his entire retirement nest egg to the profitable medical industry ... another six months and he would have made it, but at least my mom still had the nest-egg. Dad could have made it anywhere over there in Europe, Japan, Canada

or Australia because they have those Commie government run health care systems.

In the next several issues, we’ll focus on the state run Medicaid system, the nature of “spend down” and how you really have nothing to fear from Medicaid but fear itself. A healthy spouse is allowed to keep many assets and still qualify the other spouse for Medicaid. Nobody comes and takes your house, and if you give things away then you have made a big mistake. So relax, read the articles and don’t react to rumors and the know-it-all.

Local author Burleson to speak at library this Saturday LORETTA CLARK ROSWELL PUBLIC LIBRARY

Storytimes for children and visiting authors for adults and teens are some of the exciting free activities provided each month by the Roswell Public Library, 301 N. Pennsylvania Ave. A monthly Calendar of Events showcasing the programs is available at the library and on the library’s website at www.roswellpubliclibrary.org . Local author Donald Burleson will be presenting a program this Saturday at 2 p.m. as he shares information on several of his books, including “A Capitalist Christmas Carol” and “UFOs and the Murder of Marilyn Monroe.”

Book Talk

Burleson, who has master’s degrees in mathematics and English with a Ph.D. in English literature, is semiretired from ENMU-Roswell.

He has written numerous short stories and novels, including “Flute Song,” “Arroyo” and “A Roswell Christmas Carol,” as well as non-fiction books on the topic of UFOs. Burleson is a certified UFO field investigator, research consultant, and

New Mexico state director for MUFON, the Mutual UFO Network. Scott May, Adult Services librarian, invites readers to uncover the information in his books before the program.

His newest title, “A Capitalist Christmas Carol,” is a very loose adaptation of the Dickens classic, “A Christmas Carol.” However, Burleson promotes the viewpoint that it is beneficial to the economy and enhances the income of ordinary employees for an entrepreneur to be successful and make a good profit. Edward Scrooch is a skilled businessman, but he has become troubled by the notion that there is something basically evil about making more money than the average person. Just like in the original story, Scrooch is visited by the ghost of Christmas Past, the ghost of Christmas Present and the ghost of Christmas Future.

They try to show him that there is nothing inherently evil about being a successful businessman, making a legitimate profit, and having

Treatment includes over-the-counter diphenhydramine, loratadine, cetirizine and chlorpheniramine; the application of cool, wet compresses; bathing with tepid water sprinkled with baking soda and/or uncooked or colloidal oatmeal; and prescription levocetirizine, hydroxyzine and desloratadine. Severe cases might require the use of an oral corticosteroid.

It appears your hives might be trig-

more wealth than ordinary people.

Burleson has been fascinated with the death of Marilyn Monroe for many years and had heard rumors of a UFO connection with Monroe’s death. In “UFOs and the Murder of Marilyn Monroe,” he proposes the theory that she was murdered by government operatives because she knew too much about the Roswell UFO incident and cover -up. Using toxicology reports and other evidence, he asserts that Monroe did not commit suicide, but was actually murdered. Burleson devotes much of the book to reviewing the available information about that fateful evening in 1962, when her body was discovered.

He argues that she died several hours earlier than the official report states.

Then he discusses the extent and nature of her relationships with John Kennedy and Bobby Kennedy and shows that Bobby Kennedy was at her house about the time of her death. He speculates that she learned a considerable amount about secrets and classified information from these two government leaders and argues that she was murdered to

gered primarily by physical and emotional stress. Consider yoga or tai chi instead of walking. Experiment with different water temperatures and soaps when bathing. Try to reduce your exposure to emotionally charged situations, and practice relaxation techniques such as meditation or deep breathing. When something triggers the hives, make a mental note (or keep a journal) and avoid it in the future. In other words, take whatever steps are necessary to reduce your stress level.

Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books, including “Live Longer, Live Better,” “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Diet” and “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Cookbook,” which are available at most bookstores or online.

prevent her from having a news conference to divulge Kennedy secrets, as she supposedly threatened Bobby that she would do.

Then Burleson shows reasons why he believes that most of those secrets were related to UFOs and quite likely the Roswell UFO incident. It is interesting reading, whether you are a believer or a skeptic, and should appeal to anyone who enjoys reading about history, politics, celebrities or conspiracy theories.

Burleson’s visit is sponsored by the Friends of the Library and refreshments will be served. He will also have books available for purchase and signing.

At Giffords’ office, mourners came by to leave handwritten messages, and staffers and interns stood around, visibly moved by the tragedy. Her office had been vandalized months earlier when she voted in favor of health-care reform. She had received numerous threats, yet chose not to have security at her public events.

“She is the kind of person who likes to talk to people and listen to their concerns,” Tucson City Council Member Regina Romero told me. She knows Giffords well and considers her a friend.

On that tragic day, Giffords called her to invite her to the event, but she was holding one of her own. She remembers thinking, “I’ll call her Monday to see how things went.”

Several staffers were with Giffords at the Safeway supermarket that morning. Gabe Zimmerman, her 30-year-old director of community outreach, who was engaged to be married, died in the attack. Another two staffers are recuperating from their wounds.

Among those assisting her that day was a young intern who is now being hailed as a hero, responsible for saving Giffords’ life. Twenty-year -old Daniel Hernandez is a political-science student and had been interning with Giffords for only five days. His quick thinking,

a handprint and popcorn; as well as coloring a popcorn bookworm and “family night at the movies” bookmark.

The stories may vary between the programs and the quantities of some craft items may be limited.

Turtle Time will be the theme of the 2 p.m. Saturday storytime. The books could include “Turtle Song,” “A Turtle in the Toilet,” “Ocean Pop-up” or “Jump, Frog, Jump!” For the related crafts, precut paper and other materials will be used to create a mosaic “Southwest” turtle, make a felt turtle on a used CD, or assemble a stand-up turtle. The quantity of some craft items may be limited.

strength of character and first-aid training led him to react immediately. Hernandez ran toward Giffords while Jared Lee Loughner was still shooting. When Hernandez saw her down, with a bullet through her head, he raised her head, applied pressure to the wound and held her hand. “All I could do at that point was wait for the paramedics and try to calm her down and give her emotional support,” he said.

Councilwoman Romero says that knowing what a strong woman Giffords is, she is probably fighting for her life, for her family and for her future. Romero believes the power of her strength will get Giffords through this.

A lot of questions remain unanswered: What motivated Loughner to commit this heinous crime? Why were signs of his mental instability ignored? How was he able to buy a semiautomatic weapon so easily? Should gun laws be strengthened? Should elected officials always have security? Did the divisive political discourse influence the already-deranged young man?

The answers might or might not come.

But now is the time for grieving, as a nation, along with the families of the victims, and for searching in our souls as a society for lessons learned from the tragedy in Tucson.

John was born on Aug. 29, 1932, in Roswell, to Omer and Ruthia Owen.

They have both preceded him in death. He is also preceded in death by his brothers: Donald R. Owen and Dr. Oliver E. Owen.

John married Ruth Warrer on Oct. 7, 1970, in Santa Fe. She survives him at the family home.

Owen, Megan Bull, Sheldon Bull, and Morgan Bull; great-grandchild: Cameron Roger; sister in-law: Paula Owen, of Gladwyne, Penn.

John graduated from Roswell High School in 1950. While attending high school, he became the state high school lightweight boxing champion and later the state Golden Glove lightweight boxing champion. He then advanced to the semi-finals in Chicago as the N.M. lightweight boxing champion in 1951, while attending NMMI on a scholarship obtained from the Roswell Sertoma Club.

John graduated college in 1954, from NMMI with a bachelor of science degree.

John was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the U.S. Army Armor Division. After basic ar mor training at Ft. Knox, John was sent to Ft. Benning, Ga., for airborne training and became a paratrooper, Ft. McClelland, Ala., for chemical warfare training, Gary Air Force Base in San Marcos, Texas, for fixed wing flight training and then graduated as a fixed wing pilot. He was sent to Fort Rucker, Ala., and graduated from helicopter training. John was then assigned to Straubing, Germany.

From 1956 to the early part of 1959, John’s primary duty in Germany was to patrol the Czechoslovakian border from Passau to Nuremberg during the Cold War period between the United States and Russia.

While in Germany, John obtained his commercial pilot ratings in single engine fixed wing, helicopter and instrument ratings prior to returning to the United States. John was discharged in New York on April 3, 1959.

John returned to Roswell and joined the N.M. Army Reserve, flying missions for and with the reserve for approximately 10 years, and was promoted to captain during that time.

John became a real estate broker, selling new

OBITUARIES homes for C.F. Smith construction Co. He later became a partner with Charles F. Smith of C.F. Smith Construction Co., who had built approximately 600 homes over the years in Roswell. Upon the closing of Walker Air Force Base, Mr. Smith discontinued the construction of new homes. There was no longer a market for new homes as FHA and VA repossessions were piling up due to the closing of the 509th Bomb Wing of Walker Air Force Base, the missile sites shut down, the major oil companies and related businesses left Roswell along with many of their associates and employees.

Roswell’s economy changed drastically, and the real estate of fice of John Owen, Inc., was for med. He became the president of the Roswell Board of Realtors in 1965.

During his Board of Realtors’ presidency, he and Mayor Gail Harris assisted in the start-up of “Retire in Roswell” program, along with VA and FHA for the handling of approximately 3,000 foreclosures when Walker Air Force Base closed.

The program helped Roswell work itself out of this problem, and became known as a good example of what could be done by other cities having base closures.

John Owen received “The Realtor of the Year Award” in 1984. He became the first Certified Commercial Investment Member in Roswell and has participated in residential and commercial properties, investments and partnerships for more than 50 years. John and his wife, Ruth, primarily managed their own properties. They have enjoyed being in Ruidoso, mainly in the summer months, for more than 20 years.

John is a former member of Sertoma and Rotary Inter national. He holds memberships in the Experimental Aircraft Association and has attended national EAA, Oshkosh, Wis. annual meetings, as well as other states’ EAA meetings.

Roswell Daily Record

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Don’t believe Brett Favre is finally done?

Well, NFL’s all-time leader of almost every major passing mark has at least filled out the forms.

Favre has made another move toward leaving the game for good by filing retirement papers with the league, NFL spokesman Greg Aiello confirmed Monday.

This is merely a procedural matter, to start the clock on a player’s pension and Hall of Fame eligibility. It’s worth noting, too, that Favre has done this before, only to change his mind. Retired players can request to be reinstated at any time.

But the news, first reported by Fox Sports on its website, was another sign that Favre’s thrillfilled 20-year career has come to an end, as he repeatedly insisted throughout a painfully disappoint-

ing 2010 season for the Minnesota Vikings.

The 41-year-old threw for only 11 touchdowns in 13 games and was intercepted 19 times, finishing with a career-low 69.9 passer rating that ranked third-worst in the NFL among qualifying quarterbacks.

His body took quite a beating, getting knocked out of three different games while dealing with injuries to his elbow, foot, chin, neck, back, ribs and calf — plus the sprained throwing shoulder that ended his all-time record streak of 297 straight regular-season games started. Then he suffered a concussion in what wound up being his last game, on Dec. 20 against the Chicago Bears.

ALAMEDA, Calif. (AP) — The Oakland Raiders promoted offensive coordinator Hue Jackson to head coach on Monday after he helped the team more than double its scoring output in his first year with the franchise.

Jackson will be formally introduced at a news conference Tuesday — two weeks after the Raiders announced they were not picking up an option to keep coach Tom Cable.

“The fire in Hue will set a flame that will burn for a long time in the hearts and minds of the Raider football team and the Raider Nation,” owner Al Davis said in a statement.

Jackson was widely considered the leading contender to get the job as soon as the Raiders announced Cable’s departure. This is Jackson’s first head coaching job at any level.

Jackson was hired a year ago to take over the playcalling duties from Cable and oversaw a transformation on offense. Oakland scored more than twice as many points in 2010 as it did in ’09 — and the Raiders won eight games and avoid an eighth straight losing season.

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh coach Jamie Dixon almost couldn’t believe it as the Panthers built their lead — 5-0, 110, 13-0 and finally to 190. The larger the lead got, the more he fretted.

This wasn’t IllinoisChicago or North Florida, teams that Pitt wiped out by big margins in November. This was No. 3 Syracuse in mid-January, and he knew it couldn’t last.

And it didn’t.

Pittsburgh lost its huge early lead, then came back behind Nasir Robinson’s 21 points to hand the Orange their first loss Monday night, winning 74-66 in a game of remarkable runs.

“It was a strange game,” Dixon said While the start was r emarkable, the finish wasn’t — Pitt’s eighth victory in nine games against Syracuse, which played

Brad Wanamaker added 15 points to help the fifthranked Panthers (18-1) improve to 6-0 in the Big East for the first time and halt a long Syracuse winning streak for the second successive season.

The Orange (18-1, 5-1) couldn’t match the 19992000 team’s school record by winning their first 19 games. Syracuse won its first 13 last season, only to lose to Pitt 82-72 at the Carrier Dome.

C.J. Fair had 16 points and nine rebounds while Scoop Jardine added 12 points for Syracuse, which answered Pitt’s big start with a 17-0 run that helped tie the score at 41 with 13:46 remaining. But Pitt scor ed nine of the See PITT, Page B2

Local roundup: Broncos fall by 10 at Cahoon RECORD STAFF REPORTS

The New Mexico Military Institute men’s basketball team again struggled from the field on Monday and dropped its third straight Western Junior College Athletic Conference title in a 6858 loss to shorthanded Howard College at Cahoon Armory.

The Broncos made just 22 of their 59 attempts from the field and missed all 17 of their trys from beyond the arc in the loss to the Hawks, who played with just five players for most of the game due to disciplinary issues.

Despite being shorthanded, the Hawks led for a large majority of the game. NMMI held just one lead in the game — at 5-4 — and tied the

game once prior to taking its only lead on a free throw by Pat Moore.

Howard led by 12 at the break, but the Broncos closed that gap to get back within striking distance. NMMI got to within two in the latter half of the second, but Howard answered with a five-point run to make it a seven-point game.

NMMI trimmed that lead by two shortly therafter, but could never get any closer.

Howard’s Tramel White and Carlos Emory led all scorers with 22 points apiece. Cory Stern also added 10 points and 13 rebounds for the Hawks.

For NMMI (8-9), Mike Buffalo had 14, Mike Pinson had 10 and Josh Gener had 10. Jon Marsh finished with six points after shooting 2 for 17 from the field and missing all eight of his

3-point attempts.

As if the league’s oldest rivalry needed an extra kick, Jay Cutler and the Chicago Bears gave it a big one by beating the Seattle Seahawks 35-24 in a divisional playoff game Sunday.

That means they’ll host Green Bay in the NFC championship game. That’s right, it’s Packers and Bears again, only this time, a spot in the Super Bowl is at stake.

“We got off to a horrible start and Pitt got off to a great start,” Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim said. “We had a long way to come from back from the beginning. ... That’s as good a Pitt team as I’ve seen. That’s probably the best team we’ve played.”

“It’s like you’re on the treadmill running at 10 miles an hour and then someone just hits the stop button,” Brady said. “I think we’re a pretty good football team, but not when we play like today.”

Brady lost his third straight postseason game and was outplayed by second-year pro Mark Sanchez, who is 4-1 in his playoff career. Sanchez threw three touchdown passes — a 7yarder to LaDainian Tomlinson, a 15-yarder to Edwards and a 7-yarder to Santonio Holmes — as the Jets took a 21-11 lead two minutes into the fourth quarter.

Others didn’t.

Antonio Cromartie calling Brady an expletive. Bart Scott said Wes Welker’s “days in a uniform are numbered” after the Patriots wide receiver used several foot references — a shot at Ryan’s foot-fetish video controversy — during a press conference. Belichick benched Welker for the Patriots’ first series, apparently because of those comments.

“We don’t care what people say or whether they like us,” Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis said. “We just focus on what we need to do to win games.”

About a half hour before the game, R yan got his first boos when he was shown on the Gillette Stadium video screens hugging Jason Taylor as the can walk away and say that. Individually and from a team standpoint, it was way more than I ever dreamed of.”

Syracuse appeared to have a chance to make a final push after Dixon drew a rare technical foul and Dion Waiters made the two free throws, cutting it to 57-53. But Pitt scored the next eight points, and Syracuse never got closer than five points after that.

“It’s the first time I’ve played in a game like that,” Wanamaker said. “They made their run, but we stuck with it the whole game.”

Pitt is 9-0 in the Petersen Events Center against Top 5 clubs, including a 78-63 victory over then-No. 4 Connecticut on Dec. 27.

Pittsburgh’s 19-0 run lasted nearly eight minutes, beginning with Robinson’s nine consecutive points to start the game — he came in averaging 7.5 — and ending with Wanamaker’s dunk.

“We practiced all week with me attacking the middle of their (2-3) zone and then passing to Brad or Ashton (Gibbs),” Robinson said. “Getting inside opens up a lot against that zone.”

The deficit was Syracuse’s largest since it trailed Oklahoma by 27 in an NCAA tournament game two seasons ago.

The fans had little to cheer about early in the game.

Brady was pressured as much as ever. The defense allowed the Jets to have a balanced attack that produced 120 yards on the ground, led by Shonn Greene’s 76 on 17 carries.

The last one, with 1:41 left in the game, was a 16-yard touchdown that he celebrated in an unusual manner.

Greene set the ball down in the end zone and lay his head on it as if it were a pillow. By the time he got up, the excited but decidedly slower R yan had already run down the sideline waiting to pat him on the helmet.

“Maybe everybody else never believed, but we believed,” Ryan said. “We’re moving on. Same old Jets, back to the AFC championship. The only difference is this time we plan on winning.”

Green Bay dominated top-seeded Atlanta 48-21 on Saturday behind a superb ef fort by Aaron Rodgers, who threw for 366 yards and three touchdowns.

“They looked good and we knew we had to come out and kind of make a statement like they did last night,” Bears tight end Greg Olsen said, “and I think for the most part we did.”

Olsen did his part with three catches for 113 yards, including a 58-yard touchdown in the opening minutes that set the tone.

The Bears defense, meanwhile, shut down an of fense that scored 41 points in a stunning win over defending champion New Orleans last week. The Seahawks wound up with 276 yards but had just 111 through three quarters, and all their points came after the game got out of hand.

The Bears harassed Matt Hasselbeck, who threw for 258 yards. Chicago also held Seattle to 34 on the ground. Marshawn L ynch finished with two yards on four attempts a week after delivering that spectacular TD run against New Orleans.

Chicago stumbled into its off week at 4-3 following a 3-0 start.

DEAR ABBY: I am writing in response to “Blue at Christmas” (Dec. 13). I think the card-making tradition she has with her niece is beautiful. In a time when so many people are rushed, and so many of us are focused on finding the “best deal” for Christmas, it is wonderful that “Blue” is teaching her niece the importance of thinking of others and spending time with loved ones. I hope they will carry on their tradition because I’m sure many people look forward to those handmade cards and treasure them every year.

LINDSEY IN GRANITE CITY, ILL. DEAR LINDSEY: If the avalanche of mail that poured into my office is any indication of how popular homemade cards are, the major greeting card companies had better look out. Read on:

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: “Blue’s” niece does not need to hear that she should quit a project just because some miserable, jealous “friend” makes ugly comments about it. Insulting other people’s efforts, while attempting nothing on her own, indicates that the person is unwilling to tap into her own creativity and is jealous of anyone who does.

“Blue” should show those people how much their opinion Dear Readers: Recently, one of my assistants was shopping for a sofa.

She was greeted at the door by a SALES ASSOCIATE, asked specifically what she was looking for, walked right over to two sofa choices, then asked which one she liked.

DEAR ABBY: I have sent homemade cards for some time, for all major life events. I consider it my “ministry” because when I make them and enclose a personal note in each one, I’m thinking of and saying prayers for the recipient. That poor buffoon who doesn’t grasp the significance of a handmade card doesn’t deserve to get one.

harsh. Those people have already been cursed — with the taint of commercialism. If a store-bought card is what it takes to impress them, maybe they’ll get all they can stand.

Meanwhile, “Blue” and her niece should continue their creative and loving efforts and send their blessings to veterans, our troops, children or elders in hospitals and homes, or to others who will appreciate the value of time and love. I know I’d appreciate one of those masterpieces.

DEAR ABBY: In no way should they stop their tradition just because one “Scrooge” put a damper on things. This is a great teaching moment for the aunt to talk with her niece about human nature, how some people see the glass half-full while others see it halfempty. We should never allow the “half-empties” to steal the joy we derive from the little things in life.

And let’s hear from salespeople. What do you expect from consumers?

Heloise HHHHH Dear Heloise: Recently, a reader suggested putting a deadbolt on the bedroom door for people who live alone. When my mother utilized her emergency alert system, which automatically calls the paramedics and/or fire department, they found her door locked. This increased the time it took to get to her. They told her not to lock the bedroom door in the future.

Anne, thanks for the information. Most times, this should not be a problem. Readers, keep this in mind when deciding whether to lock your door.

Heloise HHHHH

Dear Heloise: I have an aunt who is bedridden. We put a multipocketed shoe bag under the lamp base and let it hang off the night table.

She is no longer frustrated when grabbing for something.

We put her eyeglasses, tissues, candy, magazines, comb and everything else in these easy-toreach and organized pockets. It is amazing how well it works.

Danny in New York Keeping organized is important in any situation. Just be sure the shoe bag is secure and does not cause the lamp to fall.

Heloise

HHHHH

Dear Heloise: After having my pillbox (with the press-open lids) come open in the baggage area during a plane flight, I didn’t want the same thing to happen again. I found the best solution ever — plastic wrap wound around the box!

UN peacekeepers in Ivory Coast fire warning shots

ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast (AP) — United Nations peacekeepers in Ivory Coast fired warning shots in the air on Monday to disperse a mob allied with the president who is refusing to give up power, and a regional envoy arrived to try to persuade the defiant leader to cede office in the interest of peace.

The crowd descended on a parking lot near the luxury Pullman hotel where African Union envoy Raila Odinga was expected to stay. The hotel was being guarded by United Nations armored personnel carriers, and reporters including an Associated Press Television News cam-

eraman saw the mob encircle the vehicles, shouting and pumping their fists in the air.

Seconds later, there was the crack of gunfire; a cloud of birds flew out of nearby trees and protesters scattered.

Odinga, the prime minister of Kenya, spent the afternoon with incumbent president Laurent Gbagbo, who is insisting he won the Nov. 28 presidential election even though results tallied by his country’s electoral commission and double-checked by a special United Nations observation mission showed opposition leader Alassane Ouattara had won.

Attacks against the U.N. have been mounting. Last week six of their cars were destroyed by proGbagbo mobs, who accuse the U.N. of bias, and of being part of “a foreign plot” to remove the leader.

Odinga’s trip is the fifth highlevel visit by an African leader trying to find a solution to the standoff. In a statement released Monday, Odinga said Gbagbo’s unwillingness to respect the results could create a crisis of confidence for Africa and lead people to think their votes do not matter in a year when 17 presidential elections are scheduled.

“The refusal to respect the will

of the Ivorians as expressed in the November elections will deal a deadly blow to the wave of democracy that is sweeping Africa,” Odinga said, according to the statement.

On Monday night after leaving the presidential palace, Odinga was expected to visit Ouattara, who is holed up in a hotel across town, unable to leave except by helicopter because troops loyal to Gbagbo have sealed off the roads. The latest attempt at diplomacy comes as the chiefs of staff of the armies of 15 neighboring nations planned to meet this week to consider military intervention to oust Gbagbo.

There are fears, though, that military action could spark retaliatory attacks by the Young Patriots, a militia-like organization allied with Gbagbo. The group’s members were behind the attempted attack on the U.N. at the Pullman.

Over the weekend, the group’s leader, Charles Ble Goude, held a rally to warn he would soon give “the command” — implying that he planned to unleash the mobs — as he did in 2004 and 2005, when the group gang raped foreign women, beat French citizens and attacked peacekeepers.

Egyptian man sets himself on fire

CAIRO (AP) — An Egyptian man set himself on fire Monday outside the country’s parliament, security officials said, in an apparent protest emulating the self-immolation of an unemployed Tunisian man last month that helped trigger a popular uprising.

Egyptian security officials said policemen guarding the parliament building in central Cairo and motorists driving by at the time used fire extinguishers to quickly put out the blaze engulfing the man. Health Ministry spokesman AbdelRahman Shahine said the man was taken to the hospital with light burns, mostly to his face, neck and legs.

The officials identified the man as Abdou Abdel-Monaam Hamadah, a 48-year-old owner of a small restaurant from Qantara, an area close to the Suez Canal city of Ismailia east of Cairo. They said Hamadah was protesting a government policy preventing restaurant owners from buying cheap subsidized bread to resell to their patrons.

A subsidized loaf of typical Egyptian flat bread sells for about 1 U.S. cent apiece, but sells for five times that much to restaurant owners.

Hamadah asked policemen guarding the parliament building to meet speaker Fathi Sorour, officials said. When they refused, Hamadah stepped back, took out a bottle filled with petrol from his pocket, doused himself with the liquid and set himself alight.

The policemen and passing motorists rushed to him with fire extinguishers to put out the flames.

The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to brief the media.

The website of Egypt’s leading Al-Ahram daily said Hamadah was a father of four and had repeatedly entered heated arguments with local officials over the bread issue.

Hamadah’s act follows that of Tunisian Mohamed Bouazizi, a 26-year-old with a university degree, who set himself on fire after police confiscated the fruits and vegetables he was selling without a permit. He later died in a hospital near Tunis, and his desperate act touched a nerve with educated, unemployed youths nationwide in Tunisia, and sparked the mass protests that toppled President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. It also follows a similar act in Algeria on Saturday. Algeria’s Liberte daily said that a 37-year-old man set himself alight over the weekend in a village near the Tunisian border, and died hours later in the hospital.

News of the Tunisian uprising has dominated the Egyptian media over the past few days, with opposition and independent newspapers lauding the fall of Ben Ali and drawing parallels between his toppled regime and that of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, who has ruled for nearly 30 years.

Egypt has posted impressive economic growth rates over the past few years, in part fueled by a host of ambitious reforms. But the growth has failed to filter down to many of the estimated 80 million Egyptians.

Nearly half of all Egyptians live under or just below the poverty line set by the U.N. at $2 a day. Mubarak and his ruling National Democratic Party have been pledging to ensure that the fruits of economic reforms benefit more Egyptians.

Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak attends a press conference in the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, in Jerusalem, Monday.

Israel’s defense minister defects from Labor Party JERUSALEM (AP) — In a shocking move that instantly shook up Israel’s political scene, Defense Minister Ehud Barak defected from his Labor Party Monday, leaving in shambles the iconic movement that founded the country and ruled it invincibly for decades.

The move appeared to shore up Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing coalition by leading to the resignation of the other Labor members, who had been at loggerheads with the government over stalled peacemaking efforts. But it could weaken the Israeli leader in the long run by reducing his majority and undermining his attempts to portray himself as a centrist leader.

Barak, the departing party leader and former prime minister, will stay in the ruling coalition with four other followers in a new party. But Labor’s eight remaining lawmakers — including three ministers — will withdraw.

Netanyahu’s remaining majority of 66 seats in the 120-member parlia-

ment now seems safer than before, and it will be dominated even more by hawks opposed to serious concessions to the Palestinians.

The Palestinians refuse to negotiate until Israel completely freezes settlement construction in the West Bank and east Jerusalem — captured areas they claim for a future state. It’s unlikely the current coalition, dominated by nationalist and Orthodox Jewish parties, will do so.

Barak, 68, said he was tired of the infighting within Labor and accused his former partners of being too soft on issues of war and peace. His colleagues have been agitating to leave the government, and had been pushing for a party decision to withdraw from the government entirely, which would have made it more awkward for Barak to stay.

“We are embarking on a new path,” he said during a news conference at Israel’s parliament. “We want to wake up without having to compromise, apologize and explain.”

He said his new party — to be called Independence — would be “centrist, Zionist and democratic.”

For Labor, the dramatic announcement marked another chapter in its stunning fall from grace.

The once proud party dominated Israeli politics for the country’s first three decades, producing a string of prime ministers that included David Ben-Gurion — Israel’s founding father — Levi Eshkol, Golda Meir and the slain prime minister, Yitzhak Rabin.

Barak himself briefly served as prime minister from 1999 to 2001.

Labor led Israel to independence in 1948 and left its imprint on all important aspects of Israeli life for decades.

Its stalwarts founded the kibbutz movement — communal farms that for a time captured the world’s imagination — and set up the basic institutions of state that live on today. It was finally unseated by the more hard-line Likud in 1977, beginning a period of two-party domination that has ended with Labor’s drop in support.

Prosecutors: Italian Premier Berlusconi had many prostitutes

ROME (AP) — Italian Premier Silvio Berlusconi had sex with a significant number of prostitutes, Milan prosecutors alleged Monday in documents seeking authorization to search some of his properties.

The prosecutors are leading a probe aimed at determining if the 74-year-old media mogul paid for sex with a 17-year-old Moroccan girl nicknamed Ruby who attended parties at one of his villas last year. Prostitution isn’t a crime in Italy, but exploiting or aiding prostitution with minors is.

The prosecutors alleged in documents examined by a parliamentary committee Monday that Berlusconi had sex with a “significant” number of young female prostitutes and used apartments to compensate the women, along with cash payments.

Berlusconi has denied wrongdoing and Ruby has said she never had sex with him.

The scandal, which exploded Friday with word that Berlusconi was under investigation, gained momentum Monday with the arrival in parliament of a nearly 400-page dossier from prosecutors on the case.

And it was having political implications, with one of Berlusconi’s party leaders, Fabrizio Cicchitto, raising the prospect of early elections if the already weakened government can’t muster more parliamentary support.

The prosecutors asked the Chamber of Deputies to authorize a search of offices in a residential complex near Milan that belong to Berlusconi, who is both a member of the Chamber and premier. Members of the Chamber enjoy parliamentary immunity, including from arrest or searches in criminal probes, unless a Chamber committee decides otherwise on a case-by-case basis.

The Chamber posted the prosecutors’ request on its website Monday.

The teen, now 18, has said she was

She has said in a TV interview that the premier last year gave her 7,000 ($9,000) to help her financially.

Prosecutors want police to search an apartment complex in Segrate, near Milan, which includes the offices they alleged could contain documentation that young women were given money and rent-free apartments — in another residential complex — by Berlusconi in compensation for prostitution.

In the request, Prosecutor Edmondo Bruti

Liberati wrote that one of the premier’s lawyers said the offices are part of Berlusconi’s property and thus enjoy parliamentary immunity from searches.

Prosecutors alleged in their request that these parties were a cover for prostitution, and that besides the rent-free arrangement, cash payments doled out by a go-between compensated the prostitutes.

Liberati alleged that three close associates of the premier “continuously carried out an activity of inducing and abetting prostitution,” by selecting and accompanying to Berlusconi’s various residences, a

“significant number of young women, who prostituted themselves with Silvio Berlusconi, receiving payment of money” from him.

Among the prostitutes, prosecutors alleged, was the 17-year-old Ruby. Liberati in his request to parliament said investigators’ analysis of the girl’s cell phone data indicated she “frequented” Berlusconi’s Arcore residence in a period spanning February to May of last year.

The teenager has said she was first invited to Arcore for a soiree of dinner, song and dance with Berlusconi and several other young women on Valentine’s Day in 2010.

She claimed she had given her age as 24, so others at the party, including Berlusconi, wouldn’t know she was a minor.

For three days running, culminating in a recorded video message shown on Italian TV Sunday night, Berlusconi has dismissed allegations that he paid for prostitutes, including a minor, as “grotesque.”

He railed against prosecutors’ use of telephone interceptions as a violation of privacy; wiretaps of participants at the Arcore dinners were also part of the prosecutors’ documentation turned over Monday to parliament.

Berlusconi claimed to have found a steady girlfriend following his separation from his second wife, Veronica Lario. Lario has cited his frequenting of “minors” and “infatuation” with young women as a reason she wanted to end the marriage.

Italian news reports say prosecutors want to question Berlusconi later this week. The premier could invoke protection from prosecution in his role as premier. Italy’s constitutional court recently ruled that judges could determine, instance by instance, if commitments connected to his role as head of government could excuse him from attending trial or appearing before prosecutors.

Italian designers do classic tailor-

MILAN (AP) — As the menswear preview winter showings wind down it is clear that designers are not in the mood for sports.

After several seasons of safe casual clothes, Italian designers return to their first love — classic tailoring — and in more than one case, go beyond.

Earlier in the week Dolce&Gabbana presented a latter-day dandy who flaunts a velvet tuxedo jacket worn with distressed jeans. On the third of the four day preview presentations for the fall-winter 20112012 Monday, Frida Giannini for Gucci created a new dandy based on the rock-star atmosphere of the 1970s.

While every show has devoted a lot of space to revisited suit wear, luxurious fur and ample outerwear also play a big part in the winter fashion scene.

‘Boardwalk Empire,’ ‘Glee’ big winners at Globes

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (AP) — It was a good night for HBO, “Glee” and probably the bartenders at Hollywood’s annual Golden Globe awards.

HBO’s Prohibition-era drama “Boardwalk Empire” dethroned “Mad Men” as television’s top drama — in the estimation of Golden Globe voters. Al Pacino and Claire Danes both won acting awards for their roles in HBO movies.

“Glee,” meanwhile, won the Globe for television’s best comedy or musical, its second Globe for the two years the exuberant Fox series has been on the air. Actors who play two of its indelible characters, Jane L ynch and Chris Colfer, won supporting actor awards.

NBC’s broadcast Sunday was loose and colorful, as it usually is at an awards show where alcohol is openly served. The night’s first award winner, movie actor Christian Bale, uttered a swear word that was wiped out by censors. Robert De Niro, who won a lifetime achievement award, also joked about foreign press association members and waiters being deported and was censored for saying “Christ” at one point.

Host Ricky Gervais got off several zingers. He touched on personal

problems of Charlie Sheen and Robert Downey Jr., for example.

Gervais “used to be a slightly chubby, but very kind comedian,” Tom Hanks said in presenting a late award.

“Neither of which he is now,” chimed in Tim Allen. Gervais later thanked the audience for being good sports.

Besides beating “Mad Men,” HBO’s “Boardwalk Empire” also topped another hot new show, AMC’s “The Walking Dead.” Steve Buscemi, the Atlantic City boss who is the star of “Boardwalk Empire,” won his first Golden Globe as best actor in a drama.

“I hope we do it for years and years and years,” Buscemi said.

T erence Winter, who created “Boardwalk Empire,” seemed ready to pinch himself. “To my family and friends in Brooklyn, I can’t believe I’m sitting at a table with Al Pacino, either,” he said.

Pacino had his own walk to the stage, picking up his fourth Golden Globe, for acting in a television movie. Pacino, who portrayed suicide doctor Jack Kevorkian in HBO’s “You Don’t Know Jack,” talked about how interesting it was for him to play real people instead of fictional charac-

ters.

The lead “Glee” actors — Matthew Morrison and Lea Michele — were nominated but did not win.

Instead, the best actress award for a comedy went to Laura Linney of Showtime’s “The Big C,” for her portrayal of a cancer patient. She was not there to accept the Globe. (Her father, playwright Romulus Linney, died Saturday at his home in upstate New York.)

Jim Parsons of CBS’ “The Big Bang Theory” was honored as best actor in a comedy. He thanked his writers for creating a character that “I enjoy playing and have so much interest in playing week after week.”

Katey Sagal won the award for best actor in a TV drama for her role in “Sons of Anarchy” on the FX network, the motorcycle drama created by her husband Kurt Sutter. She had been nominated four times for her work on Fox’s comedy “Married ... With Children” and never won.

“This is awesome,” she said.

The Sundance Channel’s story of a drug kingpin, “Carlos,” won the Globe for best miniseries or television movie. The drama beat three different HBO productions in the category, including the World War II drama “The Pacific.”
