Chemical leak at Leprino hospitalizes 17 JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

FAST FOOD WORKERS PROTEST WAGES

THE VOICE OF THE PECOS VALLEY

A liquid ammonia leak at Leprino Foods Company Thursday morning sent 17 workers to the hospital and forced an evacuation of the mozzarella cheese plant.

The leak occurred on a refrigeration system located on the roof outside the building just after 9 a.m.

Maintenance workers preparing to repair a condenser on the north side of the building took the brunt of the injuries when the unit malfunctioned and

they inhaled ammonia vapors, according to Leprino officials.

Some liquid ammonia dripped into the building, but the main leak was contained outside and vaporized instantly, said Leprino’s Senior Vice President of Corporate Affairs Mike Reidy.

Those who were injured, “had a variety of primarily respiratory issues as a result of being exposed to the ammonia vapors,” Reidy said. “It was a liquid release that almost instantly vaporized.”

All 17 were transported to local hospitals. One declined treatment. All were released by Thursday evening.

Leprino’s in-house hazardous materials team responded quickly and called the Roswell Fire Department for assistance, said Division Chief Jason Sweatfield.

The department dispatched three engines and support vehicles to assist with Leprino’s ef forts, Sweatfield said.

The action, welcomed by supporters of legalization, could set the stage for more states to legalize marijuana. Alaska could vote on the question next year, and a few other states plan similar votes in 2016.

The policy change embraces what Justice Department officials called a “trust but verify” approach between the federal gover nment and

states that enact recreational drug use.

In a memo to all 94 U.S. attorneys’ offices around the country, Deputy Attorney General James Cole said the federal government expects that states and local gover nments authorizing “marijuanarelated conduct” will implement strong and effective regulatory and enforcement systems that address the threat those state laws could pose to public health and safety.

City Council approved a new, two-year contract for the Roswell Police Officers Association Thursday that included a pay increase and other incentives in a positive step toward encourage retention, councilors said.

“When the city can come together with the police department or any collective bargaining unit and address the issues that are important to employees, it’s a step in the right direction,” Mayor Del Jur ney said.

Negotiations between the city and the police association went smoothly, said Detective Jeff Prince.

“We were happy,” Prince said. “City Council was able to make a nice offer for us.

It has stalled out before.

This time, it didn’t get to that. We were able to work out a solution. I have to hand it to the City Council.

Feds green light state regulation of marijuana WASHINGTON (AP) — Despite 75 years of federal marijuana prohibition, the Justice Department said Thursday that states can let people use the drug, license people to grow it and even allow adults to stroll into stores and buy it — as long as the weed is kept away from kids, the black market and federal property.

In a sweeping new policy statement prompted by pot legalization votes in Washington and Colorado last fall, the department gave the green light to states to adopt tight regu-

targets Los Alamos Co. SANTA FE (AP) — County clerks across New Mexico are joining a lawsuit that allowed same-sex couples to be married and plan an appeal to get a statewide decision by the Supreme Court on whether gay marriage is legal.

The executive director of a group representing county clerks said a district judge in Bernallilo County on Thursday allowed the New Mexico Association of Counties and county clerks

to intervene in the lawsuit.

The clerks and the association expect to file an appeal next week with the state Supreme Court.

The judge earlier this week ruled that it was unconstitutional to deny gay and lesbian couples a marriage license.

The clerks’ move came as a same-sex couple in Los Alamos County brought a lawsuit to require local officials to issue them a marriage license.

Obama administration seeks action on guns

WASHINGTON (AP) — Months after gun control efforts crumbled in Congress, Vice President Joe Biden stood shoulder to shoulder Thursday with the attorney general and the top U.S. firearms official and declared the Obama administration would take two new steps to curb American gun violence.

But the narrow, modest scope of those steps served as pointed reminders that without congressional backing, President Barack Obama’s capacity to make a dif ference is severely inhibited.

Still, Biden renewed a pledge from him and the president to seek legislative fixes to keep guns from those who shouldn’t have them — a pledge with grim prospects for fulfillment amid the current climate on Capitol Hill.

“If Congress won’t act, we’ll fight for a new Congress,” Biden said in the Roosevelt Room of the White House. “It’s that simple. But we’re going to get this done.”

One new policy will bar military-grade weapons that the U.S. sells or donates to allies from being imported back into the U.S. by private entities. In the

last eight years, the U.S. has approved 250,000 of those guns to come back to the U.S., the White House said, arguing that some end up on the streets.

From now on, only museums and a few other entities like the government will be eligible to reimport military-grade firearms.

The ban will largely affect antiquated, World War IIera weapons that, while still deadly, rarely turn up at crime scenes, leaving some to question whether the new policy is much ado about nothing.

“Banning these rifles because of their use in quote-unquote crimes is like banning Model Ts because so many of them are being used as getaway cars in bank robberies,” said Ed Woods, a 47-yearold from the Chico area of northern California.

Woods said he collects such guns because of their unique place in American history. He now wonders whether he’ll be prohibited from purchasing the type of M1 Garand rifle his father used during World War II. The U.S. later sold thousands of the vintage rifles to South Korea.

The contract calls for a 2 percent raise to employee salaries, with an extra 75 cents an hour for those who work the 4 p.m. to 2 a.m. shift and a $1 an hour raise for those who work 9:30 p.m. to 7:30 a.m.

Detectives will make $50 more a month and officers who are fluent in another language approved by the police chief will also be paid an extra $50 a month.

All officers will receive a $1,000 payment in December. The contract also has built in retention pay in three, four and five years.

“It is basically everything we discussed,” said Human Resources Director Sheila

Leprino

Nunez. “I think we’ve come to a very good agreement.”

The contract approval is expected to make a difference in officers’ paychecks by mid-September.

Councilor Elena Velasquez said she hoped the incentives would help the department.

“I feel like it is something police officers can look at in such a positive way,” Velasquez said. “It’s something they can look at to stay longer.”

The department recently reported that nine officer positions remain vacant.

Jurney was encouraged by the contract negotiations.

“It really made a positive impact and created a positive direction for future negotiations,” Jurney said.

“The people who work at the plant, who have been thoroughly training in hazmat procedures, coordinate actively with local fire department in preparation of situations like this,” Reidy said.

The plant was undergoing routine maintenance throughout the facility and operating with fewer staff.

Plant manager Pete Mayadag estimated some 100 or more workers were on site at the time.

“We did a full evacuation,” Mayadag said.

Leprino’s plant was evacuated as part of the company’s emergency procedures.

“The most significant focus for us is on the safety of our employees and our contractors and visitors at all times,” Reidy said. “The safety of all those people is absolutely paramount to us.”

Two-year Leprino worker Mark Meraz said he drove to the plant on his day off to buy cheese, only to find the road blocked.

“I know today was a down day and they don’t

schedule as many people,” Meraz said. “If anybody (is hurt) it may be maintenance, but they’re trained to deal with ammonia. As employees, we just exit out.”

The plant’s emergency hazardous response team dealt with the situation on site, in coordination with Roswell Fire and New Mexico State Police. The first responders often train for such events.

Roswell Fire and Leprino crews trained Tuesday for a similar situation, Sweatfield said.

“The good thing is, Roswell Fire and Leprino have actually done training,” Sweatfield said. “We know them and they know us, so it worked out well.”

The Roswell plant, on Omaha Road, manufactures mozzarella cheese and related whey products, including whey protein concentrate and lactose for Leprino, the world’s largest mozzarella manufacturing company. The facility is one of the largest of its kind in the company.

Sometimes having 12 people for a given session, the study can consist of 15 dif ferent assessments depending on the individual’s age. The various tests can last anywhere from 20 minutes for an infant to three and a half hours for an elderly person. These assessments cover everything from height and weight basics to a full body scan.

Although a patient can refuse a section of evaluation at any time, it is hoped that patients will participate in every aspect of the study. Most tasks are quite simple, such as testing grip strength.

Another potential part of the study, should an individual choose to take part, is the use of a physical activity monitor, a device worn for seven days before being mailed back to the CDC. Because this is an extra task, participants are compensated.

25 YEARS AGO

Friday, August 30, 2013 Under the new federal policy, the government’s top investigative priorities range from preventing the distribution of marijuana to minors to preventing sales revenue from going to criminal enterprises, gangs and cartels and preventing the diversion of marijuan a o u t si de o f st at es where it is legal.

Ot h er t op - p r ior it y en for cem e nt ar eas include stopping stateau t h or iz e d m ar iju an a activity from being used as a cover for trafficking other illegal drugs and preventing violence and the use of firearms in the cultivation and distribution of marijuana. The top areas also include preventing drugged driving, preventing marijuana cultivation and possession on federal property.

T h e J ust ice D ep ar ttest. But getting blood drawn is really not as bad as people think.

“Many have said they can’t even tell that blood is being taken,” Eklund said.

Regardless, individuals can still opt out of this assessment. “If you say ‘No,’ we know it means no,” she said.

The 35 well-trained members of personnel conducting aspects of the survey are on the road 48 weeks out of the year to collect this data. And they usually stay on the same team to try an aim for consistency, said Rita Washko, M.D., the survey physician for Team Two, affectionately nicknamed “The Meccies.” She has been working with NHANES for eight years and among other things, evaluates patients for emotional illnesses, studies dispositions and is the safety officer, on hand in case someone falls or has a chronic illness episode.

For example, in preventing the distribution of marijuana to minors, enforcement could take place when marijuana trafficking takes place near an ar ea associ at ed wit h minors, or when marijuana is marketed in an ap p ea lin g man n er to m in or s or d iver t ed t o minors.

Following the votes in Colorado and Washington last year, Attorney General Eric Holder launched a review of marijuana enforcement policy that included an examination of the two states. The issue was whether they should be blocked from operating marijuana markets on the grounds that actively regulating an illegal substance conflicts with federal drug law that bans it. within a relatively small amount of space, the staff has created an organized and ef ficient system.

Using a computer to monitor every individual’s movement from one station to another, they are able to move people through quickly and keep patients out of the waiting area.

Also, to ensure both anonymity and to have accurate data transferred to each station, each participant is given an armband with an ID number.

At each station, this band is scanned and information is collected and associated with that number.

Overall, NHANES staff expects about 470 patients between now and the end of their stay in Roswell on Oct. 7. And so far, the entire staf f is enjoying their new temporary home.

“Everyone is loving it here,” Eklund said.

“Roswell is very welcoming.”

OPINION

US has no moral standing to condemn Assad SHELDON RICHMAN THE FUTURE OF FREEDOM FOUNDATION

Whether or not Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad used chemical weapons, President Obama has no legitimate grounds to intervene.

U.S. airstrikes, intended to punish and deter Assad and degrade his military but not overthrow his regime, would deepen the U.S. investment in the Syrian civil war and increase the chances of further intervention. Obama’s previous intervention is what has brought us to this point. Instead of steering clear of this regional conflict, he declared that Assad must go; designated the use of chemical weapons as a “red line” the crossing of which would bring a U.S. response; and armed and otherwise aided Assad’s opposition, which is dominated by al-Qaeda-style jihadists who have no good feelings toward America.

Once an American president does these things, further steps are almost inevitable if for no other rea-

EDITORIAL

son than that “American credibility” will be said to be at stake.

One can already hear the war hawks berating Obama for his “merely symbolic” punitive airstrike that had no real effect on the civil war. Once he’s taken that step, will Obama be able to resist the pressure for imposing a no-fly zone or for more bombing? He and the military seem unenthusiastic about getting in deeper, but political pressure can be formidable. Will the American people maintain their opposition to fuller involvement when the news media turn up the volume of the war drums? How long before the pictures from the war zone create public approval for “humanitarian intervention,” which the hawks will then point to in support of their cause?

Make no mistake: the United States would be committing an act of war against Syria — and judging by the 2011 Libyan intervention, it would be doing so unconstitutionally, without congressional authorization. If history teaches us anything,

Roswell Daily Record

it is that war is unpredictable. Even limited “surgical” strikes can have unintended consequences (civilian deaths and American losses) and could elicit unanticipated responses, including from Syria’s allies Iran and Hezbollah.

Exploiting unsubstantiated allegations about chemical weapons also runs the risk of repeating the blunder of a decade ago, when dubious intelligence was used to justify an unlawful war of aggression against Iraq. Are there grounds for confidence in the claims that Assad’s forces used chemical weapons? Maybe they did, but something does not add up. Assad has much to lose by their use, while the rebels have much to gain: Western intervention on their behalf. (In May a member of the UN Independent Commission of Inquiry on Syria concluded that the rebels may have used chemical weapons at that time.)

As Peter Hitchens writes: What could possibly have possessed (Assad) to do something so com-

pletely crazy? He was, until this event, actually doing quite well in his war against the Sunni rebels.

Any conceivable gains from using chemical weapons would be cancelled out a million times by the diplomatic risk. It does not make sense.

Hitchens urges caution: It seems to me that there are several reasons to be careful. The first is that we seek to believe evil of those we have already decided to be enemies, especially in democracies where voters must be persuaded to sign the vast blank cheque of war.

Finally, it is grotesque to see officials of the U.S. government, such as Secretary of State John Kerry, condemning anyone’s war tactics as something “morally obscene” that should “shock the conscience of the world.” Since 1945, the U.S. government has launched aggressive wars in violation of international law. It has tortured prisoners detained without charge. It has dropped atomic bombs on civilian centers, and used napalm, Agent Orange,

depleted-uranium shells, and white phosphorus incendiary weapons. It has carpet bombed and firebombed cities. America’s unexploded landmines and cluster bombs still threaten the people of Vietnam and Cambodia. (Tens of thousands have been killed or injured since the war ended in 1975.)

Today the U.S. government cruelly inflicts suffering on Iranian men, women and children through virtually comprehensive economic sanctions — just as it did to the Iraqi people from 1990 to 2003. It also threatens aggressive war against Iran.

And while it selectively laments the humanitarian crisis in Syria, the Obama administration bankrolls Egypt's military government, which massacred over a thousand street demonstrators, and Israel’s repression of the Palestinians.

The U.S. government should get its own house in order and quit lecturing others.

March on Washington

Three days before he stood atop the stairs of the Lincoln Memorial and delivered one of the most momentous speeches in the history of the Republic, Martin Luther King Jr. appeared on the NBC interview program “Meet the Press,” during which he laid out his vision for a colorblind society.

It is worth recalling the remarks the much-revered civil rights leader uttered to a national television audience in 1963 as tens of thousands of celebrants gather in the nation’s capital to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington.

Under questioning from a panel of journalists, Dr. King declared that the black population had “waited for well now 345 years for our basic constitutional and Godgiven rights.”

He also lamented that, 100 years after Abraham Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which outlawed the continued enslavement of blacks, the descendants of those whom the Great Emancipator set free remained “at the bottom of the economic ladder.”

Before the nation would see the end of the racial unrest witnessed in 1963, “the Negro’s demand for equality must be approximated,” said Dr. King, if not totally fulfilled. That meant “the barriers of segregation must be removed,” he told his interviewers, as well as the equally malignant “barriers of discrimination.”

It all seemed a dream to Dr. King, as he stood before a throng of more than 200,000 on that historic August day in 1963. And, were he alive today, we imagine he would take a certain pride in the considerable progress the black population has made on multiple fronts since the March on Washington.

Indeed, to mark the milestone anniversary of what the New York Times in 1963 described as “the greatest assembly for a redress of grievances that (the) capital has ever seen,” the U.S. Census Bureau released a report last week that reminds us of the fruits of the civil rights movement.

In 1966, 42 percent of blacks lived in poverty. By 2011, the black poverty rate had fallen to 28 percent. In 1964, the black median income was $22,266 (in 2011 dollars). By 2011, it had risen to $40,465. In 1964, 4 percent of blacks were college graduates. By 2012, 21 percent blacks of boasted college diplomas.

In 1970, there were fewer than 1,500 black elected officials. By 2011, there were roughly 10,500. That included the occupant of the highest office in the land, President Barack Obama. His historic election in 2008 truly was the fulfillment of Dr. King’s dream in 1963 of “a day when people will not be judged by the color of the skin, but by the content of their character.”

That’s not to say that the “demand for equality” Dr. King enunciated a half-century ago has been fully realized. But we respectfully disagree with the 27 percent of blacks who, according to a poll released last week by the Pew Research Center, say America has made little or no progress toward racial equality since the 1963 March on Washington.

We suspect the decidedly downcast respondents to the Pew poll confused equal opportunity with equal result. For instance, black and white high school graduates have an equal opportunity today to enroll in the college of their choice. But once they are in the classroom, there is no guarantee of equal results. Their grades are determined by their individual initiative.

Now, we are under no illusion that, in 2013, racial bias has been entirely eliminated throughout this fair land. But we also think it self-evident that segregation and discrimination are no longer impenetrable barriers to upward mobility for the vast majority of the black population.

That is something Americans of all races can celebrate as the nation marks the 50th anniversary of the March of Washington.

Would Jefferson approve ot today’s public education (Part 3) In the first two parts of this series, I showed how Thomas Jefferson valued education as the tool to ensure our republic’s perpetuity and Americans’ “Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness.” But today’s public education system isn’t exactly what Jefferson had in mind for his academic reformation.

Yes, Jef ferson imagined schools as places that teach a broad range of academic basics, such as reading, writing, arithmetic and history.

But that’s about the extent to which Jefferson would agree with our elementary and high schools.

For Jefferson, there were

DEAR DOCTOR K: Why do so many people lose height and develop a stooped posture as they get older?

DEAR READER: You may be surprised by the answer. In many older people, loss of height and stooped posture results from fractures of the spine.

When you think of a bone fracture, you probably picture a long bone being snapped like a twig, as with a broken arm or leg. The vertebrae (bones of the spine) are not long bones. They are more like little cubes. When they break, they are compressed, not snapped. They get crunched down. Picture the way an upturned paper cup would be flattened when stepped on.

(I’ve put an illustration on my

three stages of academia. The first was elementary or pregrammar schooling. The second was grammar school (“for teaching Greek, Latin, geography, and the higher branches of numerical arithmetic”). And the third was the university.

But Jefferson — as well as most of the other Founding Fathers — couldn’t ever imag-

website, AskDoctorK.com, that compares compressed and normal vertebrae.)

When the bones of your spine lose height, you lose height. The bones of your spine hold you upright. Those bones (and other bones throughout the body) become weak and susceptible to fractures because of a boneweakening condition known as osteoporosis.

ine that public education would be controlled by the federal, much less a state, government. He believed that it should be run and funded by parents and those in local communities or wards.

In 1784, Jefferson proposed a bill in Virginia that outlined his thinking for a public education system. In it, he planned to divide “every county into small districts of five or six miles square ... and in each of them to establish a school for teaching reading, writing, and arithmetic.”

As late as 1816, while still trying to enact his educational plan, Jefferson wrote to Sen. Joseph C. Cabell about the

sheer folly of states running the educational system: “If, however, it is intended that the State government shall take this business into its own hands, and provide schools for every county, then by all means strike out this provision of our bill. I would never wish that it should be placed on a worse footing than the rest of the State. But if it is believed that these elementary schools will be better managed by the gover nor and council, the commissioners of the literary fund, or any other general authority of the government, than by the parents

Osteoporosis is more common in women than men. It affects all of the spine bones and many other bones. Women who have had a fracture of one spine bone have a greatly increased risk that other spine bones also will follow suit.

Though it may seem solid and unchanging, bone is continually demolished and reconstructed. Inside all of your bones, even as you read this, some cells are adding new bone and other cells are eating away at the old bone. Normally, the bone-building process is equal to the bone-destroying process, so that your bones are neither too thick nor too thin. With osteoporosis, bone reconstruction lags behind bone demolition.

Spinal fractures often occur without a traumatic cause like a fall. Even simple acts of daily life, such as bending over, coughing or lifting, can collapse a vertebra weakened by osteoporosis. A minor stress can be the “straw that breaks the camel’s back.”

In many cases, vertebral fractures cause little or no pain.

The main clue that they have occurred is a gradual shrinkage or stooped posture. One or two compression fractures in the spine may produce only a slight loss of height. But many fractures can profoundly affect appearance, mobility and health.

Respiratory care scholarship awarded Where to get to ENMU-R student Erik Valadez help identifying unknown insects Roswell Daily Record

Erik Valadez has been selected as the Eastern New Mexico UniversityRoswell recipient of the New Mexico Society for Respiratory Care Cory Sufrin Scholarship. The award is “for outstanding academic achievement.”

The recipient chosen exemplifies the ideals of exceptional patient care and scholastic achievement,” said Gina Buldra, Respiratory Therapy Program director. “Erik has exhibited an outstanding academic achievement but

also displays those other attributes that makes for a truly outstanding student--things like professionalism, leadership and communication skills, and good work ethic.” Erik is being presented the award by Roger Willcoxen, New Mexico Society for Respiratory Care President.

“I chose to pursue a career in respiratory care because of the opportunity to treat people who live with chronic respiratory problems and to learn

the skills to help people in cardiac and respiratory arrest,” said Valadez.

“Cardiopulmonary functions have always interest me. Being trained in these areas has been a great privilege.”

Once he obtains his RRT, Valadez plans on working at two locations, a local hospital and Del Sol Medical Center in El Paso. “I plan to stay here with my family in Roswell, but I would also like to build my skills by working at a level II major trauma facility. I feel that this would help mold me into a well-rounded respiratory therapist.”

“I would like to give recognition and a huge thank you to my instructors, Gina Buldra, and Mavis Williams.

Their hard work, dedication, and genuine care has given me and the class of December 2013 the opportunity to attend a highly recognized and great Respiratory Program at ENMU-R.” Cory Sufrin was a Respiratory Therapy educator at UNMH in Albuquerque who died of brain cancer. A scholarship was established not long after his death by the NMSRC. The scholarship was established to assist students in respiratory therapy programs with their education. It is considered by the NMSRC as an “investment in the future of the Respiratory Therapy profession.” Each of the respiratory care programs in the state select one worthy recipient. Each recipient will receive a check for $250 from the NMSRC at the Summer NMSRC conference in Albuquerque in August to use as he/she sees fit.

Cloudcroft — The Sacramento Ranger District will provide access to the slash pit, located one mile northeast of Cloudcroft, on Sept. 7 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., before closing for the remainder of the fall and winter seasons.

The primary purpose of the Forest Service slash pit is to dispose of debris from thinning and logging projects on National Forest lands. When possible, the slash pit is made available to local property owners for disposal of woody and vegetative materials, such as

trees, branches, shrubs, weeds, and grass. Trash and construction materials are not permitted.

The pit is neither designed, nor intended to meet long-term public demands for treatments on private land. The Otero County Solid Waste Department, La Luz Convenience Station (33 Gravel Pit Road, La Luz) will accept slash, trash, and tires, and they also provide recycling services.

The Sacramento Ranger District and Otero County are working together to pursue options to open the slash

pit on a more regular basis, in 2014.

If additional dates are identified for accessing and using the slash pit before the end of this year, those dates will be published in a subsequent news release.

For more information, call or visit the Sacramento Ranger District at 4 Lost Lodge Road, Cloudcroft, 575-6822551, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.4:30 p.m., and Saturday, Aug. 31, from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. To learn more about the Lincoln National Forest, visit fs.usda.gov/lincoln.

within each ward, it is a belief against all experience.”

Jefferson argued for the founding of “each school at once under the care of those most interested in its conduct.” Each elementary school was to be supervised by local parents and peers who were passionate to ensure children’s education, which included the selection and oversight of teachers (tutors), as well as their salaries.

And those who couldn’t afford their children’s tuitions would be covered, at least in part, by those who could assist them.

Regarding the most basic, or elementary, education, Jefferson proposed that “every person in it (be) entitled to send their children three years gratis, and as much longer as they please, paying for it.” And from there, parents would continue to pay for advanced education, too. (Jefferson’s basic parental fiscal philosophy was: If you bring them into the world, you pay for them until they are responsible enough to pay for themselves.)

Of course, Jefferson’s proposal for public education wasn’t perfect. Even he reflected some of the educational biases of his day. Chief among them was his view on limited education for women and slaves. But that doesn’t mean that he would have opposed their complete education in a more liberating era.

In fact, according to the Library of Congress, Jefferson wrote to Quaker Robert Pleasants and advised that slaves should have a system of education based upon

Design. A $1,000 scholarship was also awarded to Faith Sosa. She is pursuing an Occupational Therapy Assistant degree.

Crystal Knoch received a $500 scholarship from the Altrusa Foundation and a $400 Poole Nursing Scholarship managed by the Foundation. She transferred to ENMU-Roswell to pursue a degree in Nurs-

ing. Amy Saz also received a $500 scholarship from the Altrusa Foundation.

his 1784 plan for public education in Virginia as one step in preparing those who were “destined to be free” under our new republic.

In addition, for Jef ferson’s own daughters, he believed it was “essential to give them a solid education which might enable them, when become mothers, to educate their own daughters, and even to direct the course for sons, should their fathers be lost, or incapable, or inattentive.”

I’m not proposing that we follow every jot and tittle of Jefferson’s proposed educational system. However, I do believe we would be well-served by adopting some of his basic educational philosophies, such as returning complete educational autonomy to parents and experts in local communities. Overreaching educational laws and programs — such as No Child Left Behind — centered in Washington and even state capitals have only multiplied bureaucratic red tape, tied the hands of parents, administrators and teachers, and relinquished school funding and choices (including textbooks) to the power and pocketbook of special interest groups. *** In Part 4, I will address possibly the most controversial aspect of Thomas Jefferson and public education: Did he advocate and expect only a completely secular education for the public?

Q. One of my grape plants has been severely damaged by small (about .25 inch) greenish/gold beetles with segmented antennae.

Curtis S. Albuquerque A. Yes, dear readers, this is my own question about a problem in my garden. Dr. Carol Sutherland, NMSU Extension entomology specialist, provided the following information: “I would bet you have ‘Altica’, a metallic greenish flea beetle that fits that size description. In bright light they might have a gold glint to them; in dimmer light, they will appear more bluish. The bottom line is they chew tiny holes in the leaf blades of grapes, a variety of garden vegetables (especially those with ‘hairless’ leaves), and flowering plants. They can jump super -Olympic distances when disturbed; as well as fly. They can also gang up on foliage to the point they are all you can see on certain leaves. Sometimes, they do not know when to quit and will chew down the leaf blades to the midribs.

Any Sevin® product labeled for grape will certainly provide control of this pest. Alternatively you can try products with pyrethrins. Reports indicate that insecticidal soaps make the beetles really clean, but they do not seem to discourage them.

Neem/azadirachtin products are iffy.”

Dr. Sutherland’s advice was accurate and her control information worked. The name flea beetle is appropriate because these beetles can jump so quickly they seem to disappear from before your eyes.

If you find unknown insects damaging the plants in your garden, samples of the insect and a proper identification of the plants affected by the insects can be taken to your local NMSU Cooperative Extension Service office. The Extension Service will obtain an identification of the insect and provide management options.

increases, the spine becomes progressively more distorted. The upper body is thrust down and forward. The abdominal muscles sag, and the space between the ribs and the pelvis closes. The chest wall becomes cramped; abdominal organs are compressed and pushed forward.

Breathing may become difficult and digestion may be impaired. Since walking erect is difficult, a cane or walker becomes essential.

Given the serious consequences of osteoporosis,

you should take steps to prevent it: — Get enough calcium and vitamin D through foods and, if necessary, vitamin supplements.

— Regularly perform weight-bearing exercises.

— Don’t smoke.

— Avoid excess alcohol.

— If you have recently entered menopause, ask your doctor about preventive medications.

curb Tylenol overdoses WASHINGTON (AP) — Bottles of Tylenol sold in the U.S. will soon bear red war nings alerting users to the potentially fatal risks of taking too much of the popular pain reliever. The unusual step, disclosed by the company that makes Tylenol, comes amid a growing number of lawsuits and pressure from the federal government that could have widespread ramifications for a medicine taken by millions of people every day.

Johnson & Johnson says the warning will appear on the cap of new bottles of Extra Strength Tylenol sold in the U.S. starting in October and on most other Tylenol bottles in coming months. The warning will make it explicitly clear that the over -the-counter drug contains acetaminophen, a pain-relieving ingredient that is the nation’s leading cause of sudden liver failure.

“We’re always looking for ways to better communicate information to patients and consumers,” says Dr. Edwin Kuffner, vice president of McNeil Consumer Healthcare, the Johnson & Johnson unit

that makes Tylenol.

Overdoses from acetaminophen send 55,000 to 80,000 people in the U.S. to the emergency room each year and kill at least 500, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration. Acetaminophen can be found in more than 600 over-the-counter and prescription products used by nearly one in four American adults every week, including household brands like Nyquil cold formula, Excedrin pain tablets and Sudafed sinus pills.

Tylenol is the first of these products to include such a warning label on the bottle cap. McNeil says the warning is a result of research into the misuse of Tylenol by consumers.

The new cap message will read: “CONTAINS ACETAMINOPHEN” and “ALWAYS READ THE LABEL.” The move comes at a critical time for the company, which faces more than 85 personal injury lawsuits in federal court that blame Tylenol for liver injuries and deaths. At the same time, the Food and Drug Administration is

drafting long-awaited safety proposals that could curtail the use of Tylenol and other acetaminophen products.

Much is at stake for McNeil and its parent company. Johnson & Johnson does not report sales of Tylenol, but total sales of all over-the-counter medicines containing acetaminophen were more than $1.75 billion last year, according to Information Resources Inc., a retail data service.

Safety experts are most concerned about “extrastrength” versions of Tylenol and other pain relievers with acetaminophen found in drugstores.

A typical two-pill dose of Extra Strength Tylenol contains 1,000 milligrams of acetaminophen, compared with 650 milligrams for regular strength. Extra Strength Tylenol is so popular that some pharmacies don’t even stock regular strength.

SPORTS B NFL to settle concussion lawsuits Friday, August 30, 2013 Phone: 575-622-7710, ext. 304

Section

Roswell Daily Record

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — The NFL agreed to pay more than three-quarters of a billion dollars to settle lawsuits from thousands of former players who developed dementia or other concussion-related health problems they say were caused by the very on-field violence that fueled the game’s rise to popularity and profit.

The settlement, unprecedented in sports, was announced Thursday after two months of court-ordered mediation and is subject to approval by a federal judge. It came exactly a week before the first game of the 2013 season, removing a major legal and financial threat hanging over the sport for two years.

U.S. District Judge Anita B. Brody in Philadelphia is expected to rule on the settlement in two to three months but said it “holds the prospect of avoiding lengthy, expensive and uncertain litigation, and of enhancing the game of football.”

More than 4,500 former players, some of them suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or depression, accused the NFL of concealing the long-term dangers of concussions and rushing injured players back onto the field, while glorifying and profiting from the bone-crushing hits that were often glorified

in slow motion on NFL Films.

“Football has been my life and football has been kind to me,” said former Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Dorsett, one of at least 10 members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame who filed suit since 2011.

“But when I signed up for this, I didn’t know some of the repercussions. I did know I could get injured, but I didn’t know about my head or the trauma or the things that could happen to me later on in life.”

The settlement applies to all past NFL players and spouses of those who are deceased — a group that could total more than 20,000 — and will cost the league $765 million, the vast majority of which would go to compensate retirees with certain neurological ailments, plus plaintiffs’ attorney fees, which could top $100 million. It sets aside $75 million for medical exams and $10 million for medical research.

Individual payouts would be capped at $5 million for men with Alzheimer’s disease; $4 million for those diagnosed after their deaths with a brain condition called chronic traumatic encephalopathy; and $3

Senior U.S. District Judge Anita Brody in Philadelphia, announced Thursday that the NFL and more than 4,500 former players want to settle concussion-related lawsuits for $765 million.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Case Keenum and T.J. Yates each threw a touchdown pass in their battle for the backup job, and Cierre Wood and Dennis Johnson combined for 187 yards rushing, leading lead the Houston Texans past the Dallas Cowboys 24-6 in a preseason finale Thursday night.

Keenum directed touchdown drives of 87 and 80 yards, the latter capped by a 27-yard touchdown pass to Lestar Jean. Yates, the backup to Matt Schaub the past two seasons, threw a 21-yard scoring pass to Andy Cruse and led another drive to a field goal.

Alex Tanney was under pressure and struggled in his bid get Dallas to keep a third quarterback behind Tony Romo and Kyle Orton. He was 17 of 31 for 177 yards with an interception.

Wood had 107 yards rushing, and Johnson had 79 yards and a touchdown.

Keenum mostly handed off on an 87-yard scoring drive in the first quarter highlighted by a 29-yard run from Johnson, who went the final 5 yards for the score.

After the Cowboys slowed the run, Keenum beat them with the pass, completing 4 of 5 for 71 yards on an 80yard drive to the second touchdown directed by the former University of Houston star. He spent last season on the practice squad after leaving UH as the NCAA’s alltime leading passer.

Keenum’s scoring toss to Jean came after linebacker DeVonte Holloman was called for holding on fourth-and-1 when he grabbed Johnson as he was running past him in the flat.

Yates converted three third-down passes on his touchdown drive, starting with a 13-yard screen to Wood on

Robinson shines in Broncos’ loss to Cards 32-24 DENVER (AP) — Ryan Lindley threw for two touchdowns for Arizona in a 32-24 victory over Denver on Thursday night that capped a wild offseason for the Broncos.

Now, this summer’s trendy Super Bowl pick heads into next week’s NFL Kickoff against defending champion Baltimore after losing both of its “Doom & Gloom” pass-rush partners. Elvis Dumervil went to the Ravens in free agency after a fax foul-up, and Von Miller will begin serving a six-game suspension.

Together, they accounted for 29 1/2 of Denver’s league-leading 52 sacks last season.

How the Broncos make up for their absences will go a long way in determining if Miller’s Super Bowl guarantee he made back in February was bold or blather.

Gerell Robinson caught five passes for 99 yards, including a 25-yard TD pass from rookie Zac Dysert for Denver.

With their opener less than a week away, the Broncos, who also saw two of their executives suspended this summer after DUI arrests, will get a jumpstart on their cuts Friday.

Before getting hurt, linebacker Lerentee McCray made a strong case for extending Denver’s streak to a full decade in which at least one undrafted player made the 53-man roster in Week 1.

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Thailand’s Por nanong Phatlum shot an 8-under 64 on Thursday to take a one-stroke lead over Lexi Thompson after the first round of the Safeway Classic.

The 23-year-old Phatlum, winless in five seasons on the LPGA Tour, had 10 birdies and two bogeys in her after noon round at rain-softened Columbia Edgewater. The start of play was delayed an hour, and players were allowed to lift, clean and place their golf balls because of the wet conditions.

“Putting was so good,” said Phatlum, the winner of the unofficial LPGA Brazil Cup in 2012. “I changed putter for this week and feeling very good. And I made many birdies today,

million for players with dementia, said lead plaintiffs’ lawyer Christopher Seeger.

“We got what we wanted, let’s put it that way,” said Seeger, who noted that settlement discussions began more than a year ago.

The settlement does not include an admission from the NFL that it hid information from players about head injuries. Commissioner Roger Goodell told pro football’s lawyers to “do the right thing for the game and the men who played it,” according to a statement by the league.

Goodell was not made available for comment.

The NFL takes in revenues of more than $9 billion a year, a figure that will rise when new TV contracts start in 2014.

In addition to Dorsett, the plaintiffs include Super Bowl-winning quarterback Jim McMahon, who suffers from dementia; former running back Kevin Turner, who has amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or Lou Gehrig’s disease; and the family of All-Pro selection

Tanney was sacked six times and sent to the ground several others, although he bounced back to get the Cowboys in position for a late touchdown before three sacks.

Tanney almost had a nifty touchdown pass to rookie tight end Gavin Escobar, who couldn’t get a second foot down in the corner of the end zone.

Junior Seau, who committed suicide last year.

Turner, who played for the New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles, predicted that most of his peers would support the settlement.

“Chances are ... I won’t make it to 50 or 60,” said Turner, now 44.

“I have money now to put back for my children to go to college and for a little something to be there financially.”

All former NFL players are eligible to seek care, screening or compensation, whether they suffered a documented concussion or not. The amounts they receive will be based on their age, condition and years of play. They do not need to prove that their health problems are connected to playing football.

Players’ lawyers said they expect the fund to cover the exathletes’ expenses up to age 65.

Current players are not covered and, therefore, theoretically could bring their own lawsuits at some point.

“All of those ‘experts’ said this would be a 10-year process, but I personally believe both sides did whatever they had to, to help retired players — and at the same

The second-team defense for Dallas has been pushed around all preseason. Wood had 78 of Houston’s 120 firstquarter yards rushing, and he would have had more than 100 without a holding penalty that nullified a 49-yard scoring run.

Much like Keenum and Yates behind Schaub, Johnson and Wood are working to be a backup to Arian Foster. And both looked solid.

time, to not change the game of football as we know it,” said Craig Mitnick, one of the players’ lawyers.

If the settlement holds, the NFL won’t have to disclose internal files that might reveal what it knew, and when, about concussion-linked brain problems.

“I think it’s more important that the players have finality, that they’re vindicated, and that as soon as the court approves the settlement they can begin to get screening, and those that are injured can get their compensation. I think that’s more important than looking at some documents,” said lawyer Sol Weiss of Philadelphia, who filed the first lawsuit on behalf of former Atlanta Falcon Ray Easterling and a few others.

Easterling later committed suicide.

Sports law experts had thought the lawsuits might cost the league $1 billion or more if they went to trial. The NFL had pushed for the claims to be heard in arbitration under terms of the players’ labor contract.

The league had also argued that individual teams bear the chief responsibility for health and safety under the collective bargaining

Dorsett said each day is getting harder for him, as he struggles with memory problems.

“It’s frustrating. Frustrating.

And to have a 10-year old daughter who says to her mother, ‘Daddy can’t do this because Daddy won’t remember how to do it,’ it’s not a good feeling,” he told The Associated Press. “I’m glad to see there’s been ... acknowledgment that football has had something to do with a lot of the issues us players are going through right now.”

In recent years, a string of former NFL players and other athletes who suffered concussions have been diagnosed after their deaths with CTE, including both Seau and Easterling.

While some of those who sued suffered brain ailments, others were worried about future problems and wanted their health monitored.

“I’m relieved; I don’t know about pleased. There are probably too many details to work through that we don’t all understand yet, quite frankly. But I’m relieved that both sides came together to protect the game we all love and help the

And to especially help those who need help right now, who have cognitive issues and those whose quality of life has been taken away,” said Mark R ypien, the MVP of the 1992 Super Bowl for the Washington Redskins.

He has dealt with depression and memory problems.

“It’s a good day, because we’re getting help for those who need help,” R ypien said, “and a sad day, because we didn’t get this done earlier to help guys in the past.”

Researchers at the Boston University Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy, who have been examining brains of deceased NFL players, praised the $10 million set aside for research.

The lawsuits, along with a growing awareness that concussions can have serious long-term effects, have already spurred research into better helmets and changed the way the game is played.

Helmet maker Riddell, which was also sued, was not a party to the settlement. The company declined comment.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: My husband and I have two beautiful, hardworking daughters we brought up as loving, respectful parents. Recently, “Kellie,” 25, got tattoos covering her right arm, leg and ankle as well as her shoulders.

They are visible unless she wears long sleeves and long pants.

This has ruined our relationship because it shows how little she thinks of us as parents, and how disrespectful of our feelings she is to put the tattoos where everyone can see them. She knows we don’t like tattoos because we have mentioned it to her and voiced our disappointment when she got the first

one on her ankle.

I can’t sleep at night or look at my daughter knowing how little she cares about our feelings. I feel it’s a slap in the face that she doesn’t honor, respect or love us. What do you think?

BESIDE MYSELF IN FORT WORTH

DEAR BESIDE YOURSELF: I think it is time you toned down the high drama. What’s done is done. If you do not appreciate the person your daughter is BENEATH her skin, you will lose her. And THAT would be a tragedy! #####

DEAR ABBY: I have a 20-plus-year high school friend who is fighting ALS (Lou Gehrig’s disease). I have developed a close relationship with him and his parents. His mom has shared some of his comments with me, but he hasn’t shared those thoughts with me himself. The comments are, “I want to die,” or, “I want to go home to God.” I think listening and being a supportive friend is what I can do

for him, but I’m at a loss as to what to say to his mother. I don’t know what advice to give her so she can be supportive in her conversations with her dying son.

DEEP SORROW IN OHIO DEAR DEEP SORROW: I agree that listening and being supportive is what you can do best for your friend. When the son raises the subject again with his mother, she should tell him that she loves him and will see that his wishes are carried out, even though losing him will be losing a part of herself.

When you see the mother again, ask if he has an advance directive for medical decisions in place. In it, a person can specify that only palliative care is preferred.

A group that offers guidance in drafting these important documents — and one to which I contribute — is Compassion and Choices. The toll-free number is 800-247-7421. If your friend does not have an advance directive, it’s important that he make one now. #####

DEAR ABBY: Our across-the-street neighbors feel they need to mow their lawn three (excessive) times a week. This includes using a weed-eater and two mowers — a push mower and a large riding mower. Quite often, the husband chooses to mow after 8 p.m. He doesn’t work and could do it during the morning hours if he wants it cooler.

The noise is loud and extremely disruptive, and lasts about an hour because he goes over and over the same area. We work and would like to enjoy the few hours we have in the evening and relax. Any ideas?

TIRED OF THE NOISE IN MONTANA

DEAR TIRED OF THE NOISE: If you’re on speaking terms with this neighbor, you should ask him if he would please manicure his lawn at a different time because the noise is disruptive. If he is unwilling to cooperate, check with the city to find out if there are any noise ordinances in place. If there are, you can report the noise as a nuisance.

J.S., via email

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

You bet I do, and it’s using a cheap cleaning solution that you can make at home. If your wallpaper is washable, it’s as simple as a few drops of mild liquid dishwashing soap and a gallon or so of water. Apply to the wall using a damp sponge, and do only one small area at a time. Then wipe off with clean water and dry.

To test if your wallpaper is washable, try in a small, hidden area first and allow to dry. If you notice any changes in the wallpaper — e.g., it darkens or the colors run — then you cannot “wash” the wallpaper.

If your wallpaper is not washable, contact the installer or manufacturer to find out its recommendations. If you have any leftover wallpaper, the information might be located on the roll.

Another way to help keep your wallpaper clean is to vacuum it regularly. Use the brush attachment or a microfiber cloth to remove any dirt and debris. Hope this helps!

Dear Heloise: I enjoy your column. A reader recommended safe ways to bring seashells into the country while traveling. That reminded me of one of my tricks of traveling.

I take four pencil boxes with me when I travel — not the long and narrow boxes, but rather the plastic boxes that are approximately 8 inches by 4 inches. You can buy them at any office-supply store. I pack them with socks, underwear, etc. As I travel and purchase delicate keepsakes, I wrap them up and store them in the boxes. I’ve been doing it for years, and I always get my delicate keepsakes home without a scratch!

Dear Heloise: There may be hope for the woman who wrote about the yellow stains on her vinyl floor left by rubber-backed carpets. I had this problem, and I have avoided rubber-backed carpets ever since.

The once-unsightly stain on my bathroom floor is no longer noticeable. Perhaps time is the major player, but could sunshine have helped?

My floor is gray tones, not off-white, but the yellow rectangle was once highly visible!

A Reader, Ishpeming, Mich.

Yes, sunshine may have helped.

However, it also can hurt, and may darken or yellow some vinyl, depending on how much sun and/or top coating.

Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: I like to play games on my phone before going to bed, but the screen can be very bright, especially in a dark room.

It is really easy to change the brightness of my screen, so I do that when I am ready to lie in bed. On my phone, under the “Settings” menu, there is an option to change the brightness. In the morning, while I am getting ready, I just adjust the screen back to bright before I leave for the day.

US economy grew at 2.5 percent rate in spring

WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. economy grew at a 2.5 percent annual rate from April through June, much faster than previously estimated. The steep revision was largely because U.S. companies exported more goods and imports declined.

The Commerce Department said second-quarter growth was sharply higher than the initial 1.7 percent rate it reported last month.

And the growth this spring was more than double the 1.1 percent rate from January through March.

The improvement in the trade deficit helped offset a weaker government spending.

Economists expect growth will stay at an annual rate of around 2.5 percent in the second half of the year, helped by steady job gains and less drag from federal

percentage points from growth.

Government spending shrank an annual rate of 0.9 percent in the second quarter, much worse than the 0.4 percent drop initially estimated. Spending by the federal government shrank at a 1.6 percent annual rate. State and local governments cut at a 0.5 percent rate.

Two key areas of the economy — housing and business investment — remained strong in the revision to second-quarter growth. Housing construction grew at an annual rate of 12.9 percent, the fourth consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. Business investment on structures was revised up to at 16.1 percent rate, although spending on equipment was revised a bit lower.

growth in the October December quarter. But he said the forecast assumes the Obama administration and Congress reach a deal to fund the government before it hits its $16.7 trillion borrowing limit cap in mid-October.

The government’s estimates of economic expansion measure changes in the gross domestic product, the broadest gauge of the economy. GDP measures the output of all goods and services produced in the United States.

The revision was made after the trade deficit narrowed sharply in June — information that wasn’t available to government analysts produced their first estimate for second-quarter growth. The additional information left trade neutral in the second quarter, instead of subtracting 0.8

quarter growth when making a decision next month.

The bond purchases have helped keep long-term borrowing rates low.

Paul Ashworth, chief U.S. economist at Capital Economics, said stronger growth in the second quarter “should give Fed officials more confidence that the recovery is gathering steam as the fiscal drag begins to fade.”

He said the Fed is now more likely to slow the bond purchases in September, although that decision depends heavily on the August employment report.

The government will release the employment report next week.

Ashworth forecast that growth in the current JulySeptember quarter was likely to come in around 2.5 percent as well with the potential for even stronger

Fast-food protests underway around the nation

NEW YORK (AP) — Fast-food protests are underway in cities including New York, Chicago and Detroit, with organizers expecting the biggest national walkouts yet in a demand for higher wages.

Similar protests organized by unions and community groups over the past several months have brought considerable media attention to a staple of the fast-food industry — the so-called “McJobs” that are known for their low pay and limited prospects. But it’s not clear what impact, if any, they will have on business.

In New York, City Council Speaker Christine Quinn joined about 300 to 400 workers and supporters in a march before flooding inside a McDonald’s near the Empire State Building on Thursday morning. Shortly after the demonstration, however, the restaurant seemed to be operating normally and a few customers said they hadn’t heard of the movement. The same was true at a McDonald’s a few blocks away.

The lack of awareness among some illustrates the challenge workers face. Participating workers, who are asking for $15 an hour and the right to unionize, still represent a tiny fraction of the industry. The federal minimum wage is $7.25 an hour, which works out to about $15,000 a year for fulltime employees.

The movement comes amid calls from the White House, some members of Congress and economists to hike the federal minimum wage. But most proposals seek a far more modest increase than the one workers are asking for, with President Barack Obama wanting to boost it to $9 an hour.

In an interview with the Associate Press, Labor Secretary Thomas Perez compared the protests to the demands of demonstrators in the 1963 March on Washington, who

sought a national minimum wage to give workers better living standards.

“For all too many people working minimum wage jobs, the rungs on the ladder of opportunity are feeling further and further apart,” said Perez, who’s taking a lead role in Obama’s push for a higher minimum wage.

The Service Employees International Union, which represents more than 2 million works in health care, janitorial and other industries, has been providing financial support and training for local organizers in the fast-food strikes around the country.

Organizers say the walkouts will hit more than 50 cities on Thursday, following a series of strikes that began last November in New York City. The biggest effort so far was over the summer when about 2,200 of the country’s millions of fast-food workers staged a one-day strike in seven cities.

R yan Carter, a 29-year -old who was walking out of the McDonald’s where workers demonstrated on Thursday, said he “absolutely” supported workers’ demands for higher wages.

“They work harder than the billionaires in this city,” he said. But Carter, who was holding a cup of the chain’s coffee he bought for $1, said he didn’t plan to stop his regular trips to McDonald’s.

McDonald’s Corp. and Burger King Worldwide Inc. say they don’t make decisions about pay for the independent franchisees that operate the majority of their U.S. restaurants. At restaurants that McDonald’s owns, the company said pay starts at minimum wage and ranges upward depending on the employee’s position and experience level.

Hunter’s 3-run HR in 9th lifts Tigers over Oakland CLASSIFIEDS

Roswell Daily Record

DETROIT (AP) — Max Scherzer was roughed up, and Miguel Cabrera left with an injury. It made for a quiet scene in the ninth inning at a mostly empty Comerica Park.

Then Torii Hunter turned it around with one big swing for the Detroit Tigers.

Hunter hit a three-run homer with two outs in the ninth, lifting Detroit to a 7-6 win over the Oakland Athletics on Thursday that averted a four-game series sweep.

The celebration continued after the Tigers’ biggest comeback victory, with Cabrera vowing he would be in the lineup Friday when the AL Central leaders begin a three-game series with the second-place Cleveland Indians.

Cabrera departed in the fifth inning after hurting his abdomen while making an awkward slide trying to stretch a single into a double.

But he insisted he would be able to play in Detroit’s next game.

“I’m OK,” he said. “I’ll play (Friday) — don’t worry.”

The reigning Triple Crown winner limped off the field after aggravating a strain in his groin, abdominal and hip area that has bothered him for much of the month. He got two hits before the injury, increasing his major league-leading batting average to .359. He leads baseball with 130 RBIs, and his 43 homers trail only Baltimore’s Chris Davis.

“Every time something like that happens, we all get scared,” Tigers catcher Brayan Pena said. “But then when we see him smiling and stuff like that after the game, every-

body starts breathing again.”

The Tigers scored four times in the ninth against Grant Balfour (03). A two-out walk set up Victor Martinez’s RBI single, then Hunter connected for his 16th homer.

Scherzer gave up six runs in five innings, ending up with a no-decision instead of a loss.

“He still can go 20-1,” Hunter said. “He was jumping up and down when I came upstairs. He hugged me so tight I couldn’t breathe. I’m pretty sure he’s excited.”

Scherzer’s bid to become the first pitcher in the major leagues with 20 wins this season didn’t look good at the start.

“I probably should’ve taken a loss,” he said. “Torii bailed me out.”

The bullpen did, too.

Luke Putkonen pitched two innings of scoreless relief, Jose Veras was perfect in the eighth and Joaquin Benoit (4-0) gave up two hits in the ninth for the win.

Coco Crisp led off the game with a double and Jed Lowrie hit a oneout, two-run homer on a thigh-high, 92-mph fastball. Scherzer held the A’s to only one hit over the next two innings, but they built a four-run cushion in the fourth on sacrifice flies by Daric Barton and Eric Sogard.

Josh Donaldson hit a leadoff triple in the fifth and Brandon Moss homered deep into the right-field seats to make it 6-1.

A’s starter Bartolo Colon was in a position to win his 15th game. He allowed only one run and five hits without a walk over five innings in

his first start since Aug. 13, when a groin injury landed him on the disabled list.

Prince Fielder hit a solo homer in the sixth off Jerry Blevins, who gave up another run and retired only one batter as the Tigers pulled within three.

Oakland’s Dan Otero and Sean Doolittle each followed with 1 1-3 innings of scoreless relief, setting Balfour up to pitch for his 34th save in 35 chances.

Balfour gave up a leadoff walk to Austin Jackson and walked Fielder with two outs. He then got ahead 02 against Martinez, but couldn’t get a third strike against him and that proved to be costly. The All-Star closer gave up two hits and walked two.

“It’s nice to win three games here when you’re looking at it coming in,” A’s manager Bob Melvin said, “but certainly when you’re in position to win the fourth one, you want to win four.”

NOTES: Tigers manager Jim Leyland said the team has decided which players will be added to the roster when it expands to 40 players on Sept. 1, but declined to make any announcements. Leyland said the callups will happen in multiple groups, starting on Sept. 1 and continuing as minor league seasons come to an end. ... Moss’ four homers in the series were more than he hit in three of his first five major league seasons. Moss didn’t reach double figures until last year, his sixth, when he hit 21 for Oakland.

Torres fills in nicely, Mets beat Phillies

NEW YORK (AP) — Matt Harvey himself would have a hard time topping that.

Carlos Torres did his best imitation of the All-Star ace, carrying a two-hit shutout into the seventh inning for the New York Mets in an 11-3 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday.

Daniel Murphy had four hits, Eric Young Jr. got three and Anthony Recker launched a two-run homer on his 30th birthday as the Mets busted loose for their most runs since routing Washington 11-0 in the first game of a July 26 doubleheader.

“It started with Torres. He threw the ball so well,” Murphy said. “He’s done such a great job of any role we’ve asked him to do.”

Torres (3-2) pitched in place of Harvey, diagnosed Monday with a partially torn elbow ligament, and gave the Mets everything they could have hoped for in helping them earn a fourgame series split.

“I don’t really think of it like that. I think of it as, I’m just another pitcher,” Torres said. “There is no replacing Harvey whatsoever.”

Three days after making a brief relief appearance, Torres struck out six and walked none over 6 2-3 innings. He yielded four hits and left to a warm ovation from the crowd of 22,008 following Darin Ruf’s long sacrifice fly.

“It’s an audition every time you go out there,” Torres said.

“I’m just trying to show them that I’m willing to do anything.”

It was Torres’ fourth start for New York and first since getting hit hard July 28 in Washington. But the other three have been very effective, and he owns a 1.56 ERA in 23 games out of the bullpen.

“I’ve been very impressed with the way he’s gone about his job because of all the dancing around. That’s hard,” Mets manager Terry Collins said.

New York finished 3-6 on a tumultuous homestand that included news of Harvey’s injury and a trade that sent veterans Marlon Byrd and John Buck to Pittsburgh. Harvey hopes to avoid Tommy John surgery that would probably sideline him for all of next season, but the Mets said no decision will be made until the right-hander is re-examined in a few weeks after the swelling subsides.

Phillies starter Ethan Martin (2-3) struck out a career-high nine, including five in a row.
