Pope presides over Easter Vigil amid concerns

VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope Francis presided over the solemn Easter Vigil service Saturday night amid mounting Vatican concern for modern-day Christian martyrs whose deaths have dominated this Easter season.

Francis walked in the dark down an utterly silent St. Peter’s Basilica at the start of the vigil Mass, which precedes the joyous celebration on Easter Sunday commemorating Christ’s resurrection after his crucifixion.

In his homily, Francis said the Easter mystery requires the faithful to seek an answer “to the questions which challenge our faith, our fidelity, and our very existence.”

During the late-night service, 10 people from Italy, Portugal,

Albania, Kenya and Cambodia were being baptized.

On Friday, during the Via Crucis procession at Rome’s Colosseum, Francis denounced the “complicit silence” of the international community before the massacres of Christians in many parts of the world by Islamic extremists.

The latest was the Kenya university attack by al-Qaida-affiliated Somali militants that left nearly 150 people dead, many of them Christians.

Francis has voiced increasing alarm about the attacks, which have led Christians to abandon communities in the Mideast that have existed since Jesus’ time. He is likely to refer to those concerns during his “Urbi et Orbi” message on Easter Sunday.

A hoppin’, boppin’ Easter Despite a mild cold snap, several Easter festivities brought families outside Saturday.

The Easter fun included an Easter egg hunt at Spring River Park & Zoo, as well as contests and a parade at the Chaves County Courthouse lawn.

Activities at the Courthouse were organized by MainStreet Roswell as part of its Easter Parade celebration.

At 80, weight lifter, gardener still going strong

By Bill Moffitt Record Correspondent To say that 80-year-old Lester Peck has had an interesting life is like saying that there’s a lot of snow on an iceberg. He’s cheated death, fooled the Russians, pastored a church, played trumpet, was an inspector engineer for Roswell’s 12 Atlas missile sites, was stationed in Germany during the Korean War, is a record-holding weight lifter, was a city manager in Texas, was only two miles away the day President John F. Kennedy was shot, loves to work in his garden, does his own baking, runs Roswell’s Farmer’s Market on the Chaves County Courthouse lawn every year and bikes 10 miles every morning “before the traffic gets bad.”

“I have a lot of irons in the fire,” Peck said.

Peck remembers being 10 years old on D-Day. He was born June 6, 1934, in Iola, Kan. Like many Americans, Peck and his family stayed glued to their radio waiting for news updates on the conflict.

“People fail to realize how important D-Day was,” Peck said. “If they had not succeeded that first day the whole history of everything would have been changed.”

Peck took up the trumpet in junior high school and continued to play through high school and two years of college.

“I was pretty good,” he said.

“I’ve still got the trumpet out there in the garage.”

His trumpet-playing may have irritated some of his neighbors one day when there was a big flood in his hometown.

“I grew up in Kansas and we had a big flood in 1951,” he explained. “I sat out on the porch See SPOTLIGHT, Page A2 Bill Moffitt Photo

Doll collection donated to All Saints Catholic School

By Katy Ross Record Correspondent

Local philanthropist Claribel Marshall donated more than 300 dolls she collected from different countries to All Saints Catholic School.

The school honored Marshall on Oct. 31 in a ceremony. Two months later she passed away on Dec. 27.

The doll collection can only be described as extensive. It includes hundreds

with the flood waters running down to the creek, right across the street, and I was playing ‘Stormy Weather.’ I’m not sure if my neighbors appreciated that or not.”

The U.S. Army may not have appreciated him either at one point when he made the most of a mistake they made on his leave time when he was stationed in Germany during the Korean Conflict.

“They made a mistake on my leave time to my benefit, so, I had two weeks of leave that I wouldn’t have had ordinarily,” he said with a grin. “I went to Spain twice, I went to Paris six different times. I went across the Alps and into Italy. So, I had good remembrances of those times.”

The rest of the time he saw Europe “from the back end of a deuce-and-half truck.”

“Then, a year after I got out, they sent me a bill for it,” he said. “I had to pay them back so I sent them some money.”

By then he was studying engineering at Kansas State University with the money from his G.I. Bill.

Soon he wouldn’t be in Kansas anymore.

“The first thing out of the bag I got out of engineering school and they said: ‘We need someone in Roswell, New Mexico,’ “ Peck said.

“So I came down here and I put in Atlas missile sites. I could tell you the numbers on each one of them, where they were, and the history behind them.”

Peck remembers there were three accidents at the various sites while he was in Roswell. One of them killed a friend of his.

“I was out there at Site

of dolls, as well as trinkets and other items that come in a variety of sizes. The dolls are dressed in native costumes and some were specifically made for Marshall.

Dolls that can be found in this collection include a flower seller from Italy, a snake charmer from India, a pair of Rumba dancers from Cuba, a bull fighter from Venezuela, a wooden warrior and his wife from Kenya and a doll made to depict King Henry VIII.

2 (due north of Roswell) the day my friend Charlie Chambers got killed with five other guys. The missile was not in. They had put in the cryogenic tanks and they were finishing up the bottom of it. There were four or five cranes around … letting stuff down in the hole. Well, somebody didn’t set the brakes or the blocks on one of those cranes and the crane got loose and went right in the hole.

“There were ironworkers all over hanging on and it got about 30 feet down in into some of that steel and the gas tank exploded in that closed area. Charlie was at the very top (on a spiral staircase) and the blast knocked him off and he fell (188 feet) all the way to the bottom. I had just been there and talked to him and had gotten in my truck … and I heard on the radio what was happening down there. That was a bad day.”

Although 12 missile silos were eventually completed in the Roswell and Artesia areas, Peck said that none of them worked. So why did they finish them? Were they trying to fool the Russians?

“That’s the reason they were finished I’m sure,” Peck said. “There were 12 sites here and none of them were operational. The design, I think, was flawed.

Of course that’s just somebody’s opinion.

“At an open site the Atlas-F was a good missile.

But you put in all that piping — it takes lots — liquid oxygen and other mixes that have to come through that piping and into the missile (in a silo situation) … and that was one of my big jobs: inspecting the piping when it was put in. And can you imagine trying to keep those pipe connections absolutely clean out there with that wind blow-

There is also a section titled “Santas from all Over the World.” There is even a doll made right here in Roswell in which the woman’s head is made from an apple.

Kendra Mathison, secretary for the All Saints Catholic School, witnessed the process of the dolls being donated to the private school.

“Mrs. Marshall contacted our principal at the time, Scott Schoen, and said she had a doll collection, dolls from all over the world that

she [wanted] to donate and she selected our school. He met with her, looked at the collection and they agreed that it was really beneficial for the school.”

The process took roughly 10 months, from choosing to donate her collection to All Saints Catholic School to getting the custom cases built and placing the dolls in specific positions, according to Darlene Logan, who was Marshall’s friend of many years.

The opening ceremo-

ing in that damned desert?

All it took was a little bit of sand or grit in one of those things and it was gone.”

Peck met his wife in Roswell and they were married Nov. 24, 1961, by Rev. Clyde Spain at Tabernacle Baptist Church. The couple moved to Texas and Peck enrolled in the Dallas Seminary and got a master’s in theology. He pastored a church in Webster Groves, Missouri, near St. Louis, for 11 years.

The couple then moved back to Texas where he spent 14 years designing subdivisions out of an office in Killeen.

“We always went to Luby’s (across the street) for lunch,” Peck said. “That day we decided to go a mile up the road instead.”

When they returned, helicopters were flying overhead. A gunman had crashed his truck into the cafeteria and then shot victims where they lay, including a woman Peck knew along with his veterinarian.

Peck had been a marathon runner since he was 30. After he quit running he took up the bicycle. He chose mornings for his 10-mile-a-day rides after a friend of his was killed by a drunk driver while riding after work.

He then took up weight lifting about seven years ago just to tone up his upper body. He’s very modest about being New Mexico’s oldest weight lifter and the records that he holds.

“Once people turn 80 they quit for some reason,” he said. “So this became very easy. Not that I’m lazy. I can bench press 160 pounds.”

Peck is a member of N.A.S.A. That’s the Natural Athlete Strength Associa-

tion. Members lift according to their age and body weight. He’s hoping he’ll have some competition and he’s going to compete nationally in June.

“I’m surprised they don’t have weight lifting at the Senior Olympics,” he said.

He credits the owners of Alton’s Power Block Gym, 1300 N. Virginia Ave., for getting him started in weight lifting. They don’t put the weights over their heads though.

“That’s for Olympic lifters,” he explained.

Currently Peck’s big project is getting ready for this year’s farmer’s market which will meet every Saturday morning, from 7 to 11, in front of the Chaves County Courthouse. He encourages others to start small gardens like the wartime “Victory Gardens” to bring in fresh produce to sell. Most people make at least $100 a week, he says.

“On a good day we’ll have 4,000 to 5,000 people come through,” he said. “On a bad day we still get 2,000.”

Interested people may call Peck at 627-2239. A meeting is also planned May 21 at his home at 909 N. Lea Ave., for all the vendors to get together.

What advice does Peck give for staying in top condition?

“I try and stay in some kind of shape … and I’m just trying to stay healthy, too. That’s the big deal,” Peck said. “Eat right, sleep right, don’t smoke; moderation in every way. That’s my rules.”

ny for the dolls was on the day before Marshall’s 95th birthday. Along with a skit that was performed by the students at All Saints, students and teachers gave Marshall birthday balloons and a scrapbook that included pictures of the students.

The dolls are displayed in two glass cases. Teachers use the collection when they are teaching a history lesson or when they want to point out traditional clothing worn in a specific coun-

try. Mathison says the students love the collection. “... [The] kids really get a kick out of going down and looking [at the collection] when they have an opportunity to see all the different things [the collection displays],” Mathison says.

Logan says that when Marshall spoke at the dedication, her words triggered a “real connection” between everyone in attendance.

Kenya: Extremists vow more attacks GARISSA, Kenya (AP) — Somalia’s Islamic extremist group al-Shabab warned Saturday of more attacks in Kenya like the assault on Garissa University College that killed 148 people.

“Kenyan cities will run red with blood,” said al-Shabab according to the SITE intelligence monitoring group.

The Islamic militants said the attack on Garissa college was in retaliation for killings carried out by Kenyan troops fighting the rebels in Somalia.

“No amount of precaution or safety measures will be able to guarantee your safety, thwart another attack or prevent another bloodbath,” said al-Shabab.

Following the extremists’ threats, Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta vowed to take harsh measures against the Islamic militants.

In a nationally televised address, Kenyatta said

his administration “shall respond in the severest ways possible” to the Garissa attack, which occurred Thursday when four gunmen entered a campus and slaughtered students. The military moved in hours later and the gunmen were killed.

“We will fight terrorism to the end,” said Kenyatta. “I guarantee that my administration shall respond in the fiercest way possible.”

Kenyatta said the country’s “security forces are pursuing the remaining accomplices. We will bring all of them to justice ... We are also in active pursuit of the mastermind (of the Garissa attack) and have placed a reward for his capture,” said Kenyatta, who declared 3 days of national mourning.

Five people have been arrested on suspicion of involvement in the Garissa attack, a Kenyan official said.

Dolls Continued from Page A2

“At the dedication one of the things she talked about was … loving your neighbor as yourself and you look at those dolls from all over the world and you realize they are your neighbors...”

Marshall married I.J. Marshall, a physician to both the New Mexico Military Institute and to the city of Roswell, in 1944 and, in the late 1940s, they began to travel to countries around the world. I.J. Marshal preceded her in death in 1983.

John Bassett, a friend to both Marshall and her husband, says they traveled, not only to allow her husband time away from his job, but also because it was their passion.

“They were both interested in other countries of the world,” Bassett says. “As long as he was in Roswell, he The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Loved ones surround you.

was called upon all the time, day and night… So my guess is it was kind of an escape form, in a way and [it was] something they both really had a keen interest in.”

Bassett says she started to collect the dolls because she wanted to have mementos from the places she visited. He recalls Marshall as being an intelligent woman who was active for her age and describes her as “one of those wonders.”

Logan says, even though Marshall loved all the countries she traveled to, the one place Logan believes had a special place in Marshall’s heart was India, especially seeing the Taj Mahal. Logan explains that Marshall’s husband gave her a gorgeous bracelet he purchased across the street from the Taj Mahal. It was so special to Marshall because the building was made in honor of the emperor’s third wife.

Logan says the couple called her bracelet “the bracelet of love.”

Logan says, after I.J. passed, Marshall went on one trip with some friends, claiming traveling wasn’t the same without her husband.

Logan reveals Marshall’s “great joy” was seeing the world with her husband by her side.

Logan recalls that Marshall, from the very beginning, was active in the community of Roswell. She was a supporter of many organizations, including the Assurance Home and the United Way. Marshall also supported the I.J. Marshall Scholarship Fund at NMMI and supported Eastern New Mexico University-Roswell.

Opinion

Roswell Daily Record

Indiana and the culture wars still causing controversy If I visit a kosher restaurant and order a pork chop, am I being discriminated against when the waiter says they don’t serve pork?

If an establishment requires that men wear jackets and women dress in what that establishment defines as an “appropriate way,” does that constitute discrimination?

When I visit the Vatican, the Swiss Guards won’t let me in if I’m wearing shorts. They offer a cover-up. It is the same for women, if they bare too much flesh. Is that discrimination?

What about the sign “no shoes, no shirt, no service”? Is that bigotry against the shoeless and shirtless? Should the government force any of these entities to violate their standards?

That is the issue in Indiana, the latest front in the culture war. The state legislature passed and Gov. Mike Pence signed a law that says the government cannot force a business or individual to violate tenets of their religious faith, unless the gov-

Cal Thomas

Syndicated Columnist ernment has a compelling interest in doing so. The language in the Indiana law is similar to a federal law, the “Religious Freedom Restoration Act,” passed b y C o n g re ss a n d s ig n ed b y President Bill Clinton in 1993.

Though applicable to all religions, in ‘93, the motivating issues were the protection of sacred lands for Native Americans and the use of peyote as a part of religious tradition.

The backlash following the Indiana law’s passage was immediate. Gov. Pence later admitted there was some “confusion about the law,” and he has since asked legislators to change the measure to make clear, he said, “that

this law does not give businesses the right to discriminate against anyone.”

But facts don’t matter when the media and gay activists believe they can find an issue that stirs controversy (the media) and advances their cause (the activists).

Then-Illinois state-Sen. Barack Obama voted for a version of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act in 1998. Several other states have similar measures protecting conscience from government intrusion. The religious conscience issue was before the Supreme Court in the Hobby Lobby case. The Court upheld that company’s right not to cover certain contraceptives for female employees as part of its health plan because of the owners’ religious beliefs and their objection to abortion.

The uproar about Indiana’s law is political theater. It is also a trap set by the Left, which Republicans risk falling into. It works this way: Find a Republican state (Gov. Pence is a

Republican and the legislature is overwhelmingly Republican); pick an issue you can twist to your political advantage — and Republicans’ disadvantage; enlist the help of a gay-friendly media; threaten a boycott of the state by prominent individuals and businesses; use this issue in the next presidential campaign to brand Republicans as racists, bigots and homophobes.

In this theater of the absurd, any defense becomes indefensible. The die has been cast; the scarlet letter attached.

Gov. Pence wrote an opinion piece for Tuesday’s Wall Street Journal. In it, he professed the absence of discriminatory DNA, saying he believes in and lives by the Golden Rule and that the law, which is scheduled to take effect July 1, merely sets a standard by which a religious objection to a law can be judged.

It doesn’t matter. As reporter Stephanie Wang wrote in the Indianapolis Star, “The argument over what Pence has thus signed becomes not only intellectual,

but visceral, vitriolic, ugly. Both sides dig in, because each thinks the other is flatly wrong — in their hearts, and on the facts.

And the debate rages on, sometimes spiraling to a place so far away from the law itself.”

The debate has become far more visceral, vitriolic and ugly than intellectual, thanks to the secular progressives who have made it that way. A Wall Street Journal editorial correctly noted, “Indiana isn’t targeting gays. Liberals are targeting religion.”

Republicans have seen the potential for political damage.

Nationally, Republicans don’t want to debate social issues in 2016 because they see little advantage in doing so in a rapidly changing culture.

One potential good has emerged from this, however.

Miley Cyrus has announced she won’t be bringing her “twerking” self to Indiana, which is bound to have a positive effect on the state’s moral climate.

Cruzing speed The first Republican to officially announce his presidential bid was not former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Sen. Rand Paul or former Texas Gov. Rick Perry.

Instead, on Monday at Jerry Falwell’s Liberty University, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas announced he was running for president. If what you know about Cruz is the snippets of information offered when he was filibustering against President Barack Obama’s choice of CIA director, his support for a government shutdown in 2013 or that time Sen. John McCain called him a “wacko bird,” there is certainly more to the man than that.

Here are some interesting tidbits we’ve learned about the man born as Rafael Edward Cruz so far this week: His father is a Cuban refugee who initially supported Fidel Castro but then fled the dictator’s tyranny. Cruz’s father, Rafael Bienvenido Cruz, said of that time in Cuba, “A young, charismatic leader rose up, talking about ‘hope’ and ‘change.’ His name was Fidel Castro.”

As a teenager the senator memorized the Constitution, got his degree from Princeton, where he was a champion debater, and was the founding editor of the Harvard Latino Law Review while attending law school at that institution.

His resume includes clerking for Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, serving as a policy adviser and lawyer for the George W. Bush administration and as solicitor general of Texas.

In other words, Cruz is not the senatorial equivalent of Donald Trump or a few other Republicans we could name who don’t seem to have the mental wattage needed to back up their electrifying positions.

If you are wondering what President Cruz might do, he offered a few suggestions and insight into his thinking during his announcement speech: “The purpose of the Constitution, as Thomas Jefferson put it, is to serve as chains to bind the mischief of government.”

“Imagine in 2017 a new president signing legislation repealing every word of Obamacare.”

“Imagine a simple flat tax that lets every American fill out his or her taxes on a postcard. Imagine abolishing the IRS.” “Instead of the lawlessness and the president’s unconstitutional executive amnesty, imagine a president that finally, finally, finally secures the borders.”

“Instead of a federal government that works to undermine our values, imagine a federal government that works to defend the sanctity of human life and to uphold the sacrament of marriage.”

There was more obviously, but that’s enough to demonstrate that Cruz will most assuredly be one of the most conservative voices in the Republican primary. As he demonstrated in the Senate, he is far more interested in fighting for his core beliefs than he is in compromise in the hopes of passing legislation.

Cruz is likely to present himself as the answer to the more moderate choices — Bush and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — and make the argument that when “real” conservatives (like Reagan and George W. Bush) run for office, they win.

His opponents likely will argue that Reagan and Bush worked with the opposition from time to time and compromised on certain issues. For instance, Reagan gave amnesty to 3 million illegal immigrants, raised taxes multiple times and saw the size of government grow during his presidency.

Home subsidies won’t work, Congressmen They’re doing it again!

When the last housing bubble burst, politicians blamed “greedy banks.” They said mortgage companies lent money recklessly, making loans to people with dubious credit, for down payments as low as 3 percent.

“It will work out,” said the optimistic bankers. Regulators didn’t disagree. Everyone said, “Home prices will keep going up.” And home prices did — until they didn’t.

The bubble popped in 2007.

Lots of people were hurt, and politicians took more of your tax money to bail out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac along with reckless banks. They also gave the Federal Housing Administration a $2 billion bailout.

John

Stossel Syndicated Columnist Then the politicians said, “We’ll fix this so it doesn’t happen again.” Congress passed Dodd-Frank and a thousand new regulations. The complex rules slowed lending, all right.

It’s one reason this post-recession recovery has been abnormally slow.

But — April Fools’! — the new rules didn’t solve the problem of reckless lending, and it’s happening again.

Because our government subsidizes home purchases, recklessness is invited. Somehow, Americans buy cars, clothing, computers, etc. without government guarantees, but politicians think housing is different.

Both parties support the subsidies.

The left wants government to help struggling families, and the right thinks home ownership sends a wholesome cultural message. Both parties have cozy connections to home-builders and lenders.

At the time of the housing crash, most high-risk loans were guaranteed by the government. Those banks wouldn’t have been as reckless if they had their own money on the line.

But they knew they could grant a mortgage to most anyone and the FHA would back it or government-sponsored companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac would buy it. That fueled the frenzy of lending.

After the bubble popped, I assumed the political class would learn a lesson, but they haven’t. Today, even more American mortgages are guaranteed by government. More than 90 percent of new loans are backed by taxpayers. After the crash, Fannie and Freddie did raise their minimum down payment — to a measly 5 percent — but a few months ago, they lowered it again to 3 percent!

Are they crazy? A sensible See STOSSEL, Page A5

The Easter Bunny versus conquering death Today is a holiday for most everyone. Some will be looking for Easter eggs and some will be celebrating the resurrection of a risen Savior.

Others may not recognize either, but may use it as an opportunity to gather family together for fellowship and a meal.

Easter is typically an exciting time for young children.

Easter is typically the highest attended service of the year for most churches.

Regardless, Easter is what you make it.

Hiding Easter eggs has always been an exercise that I chuckle at. To take “prizes” and hide them in such a manner that they can’t be readily seen, but that are not hidden so well that they can’t be found is a clever concept.

If you leave them out in the

Rick Kraft

Just A Thought open, finding the eggs is not much of a game, or, if you hide them in a remote location that a child would not think of looking, it defeats the joy of the hunt.

A heavy stone being moved from the entrance of a tomb, not so a resurrected Jesus can get out, but so others could look in, is a direct act with eternal consequences.

Some would consider the events of that Sunday morning the greatest in the histo-

ry of mankind. Nothing was hidden when Mary or Peter arrived at the tomb. According to Wikipedia, “The Easter Bunny as an Easter symbol bringing Easter eggs seems to have its origins in Alsace and the Upper Rhineland, both then in the Holy Roman Empire of German Nation, and southwestern Germany, where it was first recorded in a German publication in the early 1600s. The first edible Easter Bunnies were made in Germany during the early 1800s and were made of pastry and sugar.

“The Easter Bunny was introduced to America by the German settlers who arrived in the Pennsylvania Dutch country during the 1700s.”

The arrival of the bunny was considered one of childhood’s greatest pleasures.

According to the tradition, children would build brightly colored nests, often made out of caps and bonnets, in secluded areas of their homes. The bunny would, if the children had been good, lay brightly colored eggs in the nest. As the tradition spread, the nest has become the manufactured, modern Easter basket, and the placing of the nest in a secluded area has become the tradition of hiding baskets.

The Easter Bunny is very similar to its Christmas holiday counterpart of Santa Claus, as they both bring gifts to good children on the night before their respective holiday.

Prescription take-back event will continue in Roswell

By Steve Wolfe Neighborhood Crime Watch Several months ago, we got press releases from the Department of Justice and simultaneously from the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) indicating that new rules were being released that create “many convenient but safe and secure prescription drug disposal options.”

Each announcement expressed the great threat to U.S. public health which is posed by unwanted, unneeded and expired prescription drugs thrown into trash barrels, flushed down toilets or being kept ad infinitum in medicine cabinets across the nation.

These press releases each spoke of a DEA Final Rule for the Disposal of Controlled Substances, which would allow pharmacies,

hospitals, clinics and other authorized collectors to serve as authorized drop-off sites for unused prescription drugs.

Continuing to read, we learned that some 6.8 million Americans currently abuse pharmaceutical controlled substances, more than the combined number of those who use cocaine, hallucinogens, heroin and inhalants! Nearly 110 individuals die every day from drug-related overdoses and a disproportionate share of those involve prescription drugs. Alarmingly, Attorney

Stossel

On my show, former FHA commissioner David Stevens, who did improve lending standards a bit after the crash (before Watt and his cronies weakened them), responded that this time the government has new regulations that will prevent things falling apart: “I think in the effort, post-recession, to make sure we never go down this path again, we have created more rules than ever existed in the history of this country.”

But more rules aren’t a solution. Government’s regulators didn’t foresee the problems last time. Fannie and Freddie got a clean bill of health right up until the collapse.

The solution is less government involvement. Canada doesn’t have a Fannie, Freddie or FHA. Canada didn’t have the trauma of a housing bubble. In Canada, lenders and homeowners risk their own money.

Does that mean Canadians cannot afford homes?

No! Without all that government help, Canada’s homeownership rate is higher than ours.

congressman, Rep. Jeb Hensarling (R-Texas), tried to get an answer from the administration’s new mortgage regulator, asking in a hearing, “All things being equal, is a 3 percent down riskier to the taxpayer than a 10 percent down loan?”

A pretty basic question — but one that director Mel Watt still dodged, responding, “Mr. Chairman, that is generally true. But when you pair the down payment with compensating factors ... look at other considerations ... you can ensure that a 3 percent loan is just as safe.”

What? That’s nonsense.

This is what happens when pandering politicians get to dispense your money. Watt is among the worst. When he was a congressman, he pushed for mortgage subsidies for welfare recipients who made down payments as low as $1,000.

Edward Pinto, who studies housing risk for the American Enterprise Institute, says policies like this put us on the way to another bubble: “The government is once again ... saying, let’s loosen credit, give loans to people that potentially can’t afford them, and everything will be fine because house prices will go up.”

Editorial Continued from Page A4

The traditional path of a Republican contender is to stake out conservative positions during the primary and then run to the middle during the general election in hopes of building a coalition that includes every flavor of Republican, most of the independents and some Dem-

General Eric Holder noted that nearly 4 in 10 teens who misuse or have abused a prescription drug have obtained it from their parents’ medicine cabinet.

In September 2010, the DEA began hosting National Prescription Drug TakeBack events, theoretically a temporary measure awaiting a full implementation of the Secure and Responsible Drug Disposal Act of 2010.

Since that time, there has been huge public participation in the nine events held, with more than 4.11 million pounds of medications collected from over 6,000 sites nationwide. As many of you know, we here in Roswell at the Neighborhood Watch office have been one of those sites.

The press releases sang on and on about the wonderful success of the takeback program, giving readers countless statistics and

positive impacts of the program. And then, in so many words, it said “Oh, yeah, we’re not doing it anymore!”

I’m sure that the intent of the 2010 Act is valid and the government is just not quite ready yet. However, deciding to check it out, I called the suggested toll free number to locate additional drop-off locations nearby.

I quickly determined that any rational person would not listen to recording after recording after recording, and still get nothing. I checked the web site, with equal aggravation, learning that there is “no location found within a radius of 50 miles.” I am convinced that any well-intentioned citizen would finally give up and just flush the medications down the toilet.

I strongly believe in this program. We have had enormous success with it in our little downtown office at

426 N. Main St. In the eight times we have participated, we have collected just short of 1,600 pounds of unwanted prescription drugs. I always say “That’s a lot of little bottles!”

We decided not to give up easily. Wondering if we could do it on our own here in Roswell, we contacted our DEA friends with whom we’ve worked for four years.

They were encouraging and supportive of the idea. They simply were no longer able to transport the drugs, nor were they able to incinerate them as they had in the past. But yes, local entities could do this in association with law enforcement agencies. Roswell could do its own take-back.

As we continued our quest (I love Don Quixote!), we spoke with key individuals at the Roswell Police Department, learning that they were willing to par-

ticipate, and we set forth a proposed plan of action.

City Manager Steve Polasek, and Police Chief Phil Smith, were brought into the picture and both enthusiastically supported the event.

Hooyah! If you have unwanted, unneeded or expired prescription drugs which you would like to get rid of, bring them to the Roswell Neighborhood Watch office at Fifth Street and Main on April 25, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Bring them as is in their bottles or dumped out into a plastic baggie, or in bottles on which you have obliterated information. Save the Day. And may God bless you on this glorious Easter Sunday!

looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.

Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee.

There you will see him.’

Now I have told you.”

John 20, verses 1-10 elaborates on what happened after Mary Magdalene left the tomb, “Early on the first day of the week, while it was still dark, Mary Magdalene went to the tomb and saw that the stone had been removed from the entrance. So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, ‘They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put him!’

“So Peter and the other disciple started for the tomb. Both were running, but the other disciple outran Peter and reached the tomb first. He bent over and looked in at the strips of linen lying there but did not go in. Then Simon Peter came along behind

him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen.

Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside.

He saw and believed (They still did not understand from Scripture that Jesus had to rise from the dead.). Then the disciples went back to where they were staying.”

Later that day, two of Jesus’ followers were walking to the town of Emmaus and Jesus appeared to them. Jesus interacted with them and many others over the next 40 days even showing his the wounds on his hands and his feet to a doubting disciple. Jesus explained to his followers why he had to suffer, die, and rise again. He instructed them to proclaim the gospel Jesus then led his followers to Bethany, blessed them, and ascended into heaven.

The Easter Bunny’s story is one of search and

find. It is one of “if you can find an egg, you get something sweet to eat.”

Jesus’ story is one of “ask and you shall receive.”

It is the story of giving the gift of eternal life to all who ask. The Easter Bunny story is one of immediate gratification.

Jesus’ story is one with everlasting consequences.

My challenge to you today is not about a tradition that came to us from Germany. What you do with your family and the Easter Bunny is up to you. But don’t let the Easter Bunny get in the way of the true meaning of Easter and that is the story of a man who died and then conquered death so that others may have the gift of eternal life.

More than just a thought ...

back almost 2,000 years and is recorded in the Bible. It was early Sunday morning, three days after Jesus’ crucifixion on the cross on Friday (Good Friday). What an exciting morning it was when some women came to the tomb to anoint Jesus’ body with spices and were met by an angel.

An account of this event is in the book of Matthew chapter 28, verses 1-7, “After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow. The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, ‘Do not be afraid, for I know that you are

ocrats.

We doubt a Cruz candidacy will look like that. And that’s a good thing.

Unlike other candidates, voters know exactly what they will be getting in Ted Cruz.

Dear Abby

Universal Press Syndicate DEAR ABBY: My wife, “Connie,” and I have been together for 30 years and have a wonderful marriage. She’s a schoolteacher, and I travel on business often. I think the time away from each other is good; it gives us a chance to enjoy some “me” time.

Connie is a genuinely nice person and makes friends easily, which I admire. However, over the last five years she has become very close

with a divorced woman who teaches at her school. They text each other seemingly nonstop, and when I travel, they always get together for a movie or dinner.

I like Connie’s friend, and I used to be included — or at least invited — to anything they did. Now, if I suggest we all go out, Connie says her friend has other plans or she’s sick.

I’m not really concerned that there’s any kind of physical relationship between them, but I feel their friendship has become like an “emotional affair.”

When I brought this up with my wife, she said, “You don’t want me to have any friends?”

What bothers me is that I used to be Connie’s best friend, but I feel I have been

Comics replaced. She tries to reassure me I’m still No. 1, then goes off into her bathroom to text with her friend. I think it’s obvious she gets something from this relationship that she doesn’t get from me. Do you think friendships between women can evolve into emotional affairs?

SHUT OUT IN TEXAS DEAR SHUT OUT: Women communicate with other women on a different level than they do with men.

You and your wife and her woman friend may have felt like the Three Musketeers years ago when the three of you would all get together -but it’s possible that after a while her friend began to feel like a third wheel.

Who can say why she doesn’t want to socialize

with you. Perhaps you don’t have enough in common, or perhaps she has sensed that you are jealous of her friendship with your wife.

But I wouldn’t call close friendships among women “emotional affairs” because I don’t think it’s true.

Since this bothers you enough to write to me, and Connie seems to be communicating in secret, please discuss this in depth with her.

Hints

from Heloise

King Features Syndicate Dear Readers: This week's SOUND OFF is in response to a recent Sound Off about restroom doors opening inward: "Why do bathroom doors push in? After using the bathroom and washing your hands, then you have to open the door using the dirty door handle. Why not have doors that you can open using your arm or body, keeping your hands clean? If I'm in a restroom where I have to pull the door open after washing my hands, I will pull my sleeve over my hand or take extra paper towels and open it."

For Better or For Worse

This is a never-ending complaint! Many people use an extra paper towel to touch the door handle. Good hint, but then where do you throw the towel? My hats off to the establishments that have a trash can right by the exit door.

Heloise Dear Readers: Other uses for cosmetic bags: • Keep medications in them for easy access.

• As an organizer for electronic chargers.

• Carry snacks in your purse for children.

• Make a portable first-aid kit.

• A pen-and-pencil pouch.

Heloise HHHHH Dear Heloise: My father gave me a box of old books. I would love to keep them, but some of them are rather musty. Is there any way to remove the smell?

Hannah in Texas There is, Hannah! The answer is one of my favorite household products: baking soda! The musty smell may be just age and/or being stored without good air circulation. Take some baking soda or cornstarch and sprinkle it between the pages like you are flouring chicken. Next place the book in a large, plastic zippered bag and leave for a week or longer. You can check the book by taking it out, giving it the sniff test and repeating if needed.

Don't use this for rare or antique books. Don't use on damp books, either. This is just one of the many ways baking soda can be used to save money and remove odors.

His wife, Teresa, is serving a 15-month federal sentence on the fraud charges. He will begin his sentence when hers is over.

Superior Court Judge Adam Jacobs said Joe Giudice has a “general disrespect for the law,” citing dozens of previous driving infractions and suspensions. He said he came close to rejecting the plea deal with prosecutors but wanted to follow a federal judge’s intention to allow Giudice to remain free while Teresa is in jail so he can care for their four daughters.

‘Real Housewives of New Jersey’ husband heads to federal prison

PATERSON, N.J. (AP) — A “Real Housewives of New Jersey” husband preparing to head to federal prison for bankruptcy fraud had his license suspended for two years by a state judge who called his driving record the worst he’s ever seen.

Joe Giudice lost his driver’s license and was fined the maximum of $10,000.

He pleaded guilty in October to unlawful use of an ID and impersonation. His guilty plea included an 18-month sentence.

That will run concurrent with his 41-month federal sentence for bankruptcy

Rockets walk-off to sweep doubleheader

By Doug Walp Record Sports Editor

Goddard’s baseball team improved to 11-1 this season with a doubleheader sweep over the visiting Valencia Jaguars Saturday afternoon at the Launch Pad at Goddard High School.

After the Rockets took game one by a score of 4-1, the Jaguars struck first in the second game, plating two runs on a pair of hits off Goddard starter Cal Villarreal in the top of the first inning, although Valencia also stranded two men in the frame.

But the Rockets answered right back in the bottom half of the first, scoring four runs to regain the early lead. Second baseman Mitch Naylor started things off with a long single, before advancing all the way around on a series of Valencia throwing errors to make it 2-1 Valencia.

Villarreal kept things going with a single that sent Derek Farmer to third, and Farmer would come home when the next batter, Gaylan Young, hit a sac fly to tie the game.

Ricky Roybal came up next and laced a single to score Villarreal, before Justin “Tino” Martinez smacked a double to bring home Dominic Dunlap and make it 4-2. Roybal was also right on Dunlap’s heels, but was thrown out at home on the play that Dunlap scored. Andrew Shanor then struck out to end the first inning.

Villareal came back out to the mound for the second inning, and made quick work of the Jaguars in the frame as he struck out the side.

Luke Fink led things off for the Rockets in the bottom half of the second with a long triple, and then

came home on a Farmer sac fly to make it 5-2 Goddard.

The top of the third inning was a near carbon copy of the second, as Villarreal struck out the side again.

The Rockets added another run in the bottom of the third when Dunlap doubled and then scored on a high chopper from Roybal that bounced over the first baseman’s head and rolled into the outfield.

Roybal was credited with an RBI single on the play.

Martinez then singled, and Roybal eventually moved to third on an error.

Shanor worked a walk to load the bases, and Fink would bring home Roybal on a fielder’s choice to make it 7-2 in favor of the host Rockets.

Naylor then laced a big single into the outfield, scoring both Martinez and Fink to push Goddard’s lead to 9-2.

Villareal worked another 1-2-3 inning in the fouth to keep Valencia in check.

In the bottom half of the fourth, Goddard added another run when Roybal singled to bring home Young, making it 10-2.

Valencia finally answered back with a pair of runs in the top of the fifth when Garret Garcia hit a 2-out 2-RBI single to make it 10-4.

After a scoreless bottom of the fifth for Goddard, Villarreal was replaced on the mound by Cole Wetland. But Wetland struggled, serving up a single, a wild pitch and two walks before being replaced by Dunlap on the mound.

Dunlap retired the first batter he faced, but then gave up a sac fly to Cade Guthrie that made it 10-5 Goddard. But Valencia still wasn’t done yet. After Dunlap walked Daniel

Barela, Carlos Ramirez cracked a single that scored two and made it 10-7. After another single that reloaded the bases for Valencia, Dunlap issued a walk that brought home the Jaguar’s eighth run of the game.

Goddard was retired in order in the bottom half of the sixth, taking the game to the top of the seventh inning with the Rockets clinging to a two-run lead.

The Rockets’ Nate Chavez came in to attempt to shut the door on Valencia, but the Jaguars would not go quietly.

Valencia’s Greg Barela started things off in the seventh with a single, but Chavez would retire the next two hitters to put See ROCKETS, Page B2

Spieth holds one-shot lead at Houston Open Lady Rockets edge Lady Coyotes 1-0

HOUSTON (AP) — Jordan Spieth’s pre-Masters run of extraordinary golf continued Saturday as the 21-year-old Texas native shot a 5-under-par 67 to take a one-shot lead over three players through 54 holes of the Houston Open.

A victory Sunday would be Spieth’s third on the PGA Tour and make him the second youngest after Tiger Woods with three titles since 1940. It would also allow him to wrest the lead in the point standings away from Jimmy Walker and further boost his confidence ahead of the season’s first major championship in Augusta, Georgia, next week. Spieth was the runner-up to Bubba Watson there last spring.

Spieth sank a 41-foot birdie putt from just off the green on the par-3 16, to get to 14 under par, where he finished.

His last two previous starts — winning a playoff in Tampa over Patrick Reed and placing second to Walker in San Antonio — lifted him to a careerbest No. 4 in the World Golf Rankings.

“Today was as comfortable as I’ve ever been with the lead on a weekend,” Spieth said. “I wanted to get into contention

Jordan Spieth hits his second shot on the 15th hole during the third round of the Houston Open golf tournament Saturday in Humble, Texas. as much as I could prior to the Masters, to have as much experience as I could to limit those nerves.

This feels really good.

(Sunday) I’ll certainly have nerves, but hopefully I’ll give myself a chance to win. Then I’ll take even more confidence into next

week.

“Anytime you can close out a tournament it’s going to be good for you the next time you tee up,” he said.

Austin Cook, who gained entry into the field through the Monday qualifier, is tied for second at 203 with first-round leader Scott Piercy and Johnson Wagner, the Houston Open’s 2008 champion.

Cook, who’s only 24 and still seeking his PGA Tour card, finished Friday’s second round with four consecutive birdies to catch Phil Mickelson for second place, then briefly claimed the lead with a birdie on the eighth hole Saturday.

Cook had an up-anddown back nine, suffering a double bogey on the par-5 15th before reclaiming a stroke with a birdie on 17. He sank a short putt on 18 to stay within a swing of Spieth as he tries to become only the third qualifier since 1986 to claim a Tour championship.

Piercy had tied the tournament-course record with an opening 63 but skied to 74 on Friday, only to bounce back strongly with a third-round 66. Wagner posted a 67 to fight his way into contention.

By Doug Walp Record Sports Editor Goddard’s varsity softball team edged Roswell 1-0 Saturday morning in a pitchers duel on the consolation side of the bracket at the Artesia Invitational Tournament.

“It was a difficult battle,” said Goddard coach Jay Edgett.

Goddard’s Jacelyn Reyes eventually outdueled Roswell’s Mykaya Olivas in a fairly rare non-district meeting between the two district foes. Reyes struck out five batters, while walking one and hitting another. Olivas struck out eight, and walked two, while allowing just three hits.

The Lady Rockets (8-3) scored the lone run of the game in the second inning. Jackie Dacanay reached with

a walk and then scored on an RBI-single from Cheyenne Lopez.

“We just didn’t execute when we were supposed to,” said Roswell coach Art Sandoval.

“We didn’t hit the ball like we should have, but not making any excuses,” Goddard would go on to win the consolation championshop game at 1 p.m. against Cobre by a score of 3-2, while Roswell (7-3) defeated Lovington 5-1 in its afternoon finale in Artesia.

The Lady Rockets return to action Tuesday in a home doubleheader against Portales starting at 4 p.m.. The Lady Coyotes will also play a home doubleheader Tuesday, against Class 6A Hobbs, with game one slated for 4:30 p.m.

Stars beat Predators on penalty shot in OT NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Cody Eakin scored on his first career penalty shot in overtime, and the Dallas Stars kept their faint playoff hopes alive Saturday by beating the Nashville Predators 4-3.

Colton Sceviour and Travis Moen each had a goal and an assist, and Tyler Seguin had a goal.

Jhonas Enroth made 33 saves as the Stars snapped a two-game skid.

They came in six points out of the Western Conference’s final wild-card spot and needed a win to remain there after the Jets beat Vancouver. Dallas has three games left in the regular season.

James Neal and Filip Forsberg each scored a goal and an assist, and Ryan Ellis scored for Nashville, which lost its third straight on home ice.

The Predators did get a point, and now sit atop the Central Division at 104, a point ahead of St. Louis.

the Jaguars on the ropes.

But a big RBI-single from Guthrie scored Barela and brought Valencia within one. Chavez then walked Daniel Barela before plunking Ramirez to load the bases. Chavez then walked Garcia to allow the tying run to cross, before finally getting out of the inning against the next batter.

Goddard went quietly in the bottom of the seventh, and Valencia was scoreless in the top of the eighth.

In the bottom of the eighth, Young was retired on a fly ball to begin the inning, but three consecutive walks to Dunlap, Roybal and Martinez brought Shanor to the plate with the chance to be the hero.

Shanor didn’t disappoint, as the junior first baseman connected with a line-shot double to left field that brought Dunlap across and earned the Rockets the doubleheader sweep.

Goddard will return to action next Saturday in a doubleheader against Class 6A Farmington on a netural field in Albuquerque.

Nashville Predators goalie Pekka Rinne (35), of Finland, blocks a shot by Dallas Stars center Tyler Seguin (91) in the second period of an NHL game Saturday in Nashville, Tenn.

Seguin and Sceviour each scored early in the third giving Dallas a 3-1 lead. But the Predators rallied with Ellis scoring at 10:46 and Neal tying it up with 1:55 left in regulation.

At 4:04 into overtime, Nashville defenseman Mattias Ekholm slashed the stick out of Eakin’s hands, giving him a chance to win the game. He did just that,

beating Pekka Rinne with a wrister.

The Stars, who lost 7-5 at home Friday to St. Louis, started a three-game road swing with a much-needed win against a division foe that won the first three games between the teams this season. They wrap up the regular season on April 11 against the Predators in Dallas.

NCAA championship game set

Duke routs Michigan State, headed for yet another championship game

AP Photo

Duke’s Justise Winslow (12) is fouled by Michigan State’s Gavin Schilling, rear, during the second half of the NCAA Final Four tournament college basketball semifinal game Saturday in Indianapolis.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The latest Duke team to reach the national championship game got there behind a couple of freshmen and some of the trademark defense coach Mike Krzyzewski’s teams have long been known for.

Justise Winslow scored 19 points and Jahlil Okafor added 18 to lead top-seeded Duke to an 81-61 victory over Michigan State on Saturday and into the title game.

The two freshmen put up some impressive stats in their first Final Four game. Winslow, who played through some early foul trouble, had nine rebounds and was 5 for 7 from the field, while Okafor grabbed six rebounds and was 7 for 11 from the field.

Senior Quinn Cook had 17 points for the Blue Devils (34-4), who dominated the game except for the opening minutes when they trailed 14-6.

Denzel Valentine led the Spartans (27-12) with 22 points and 11 rebounds while Travis Trice added 16 points.

Defensively, it was a team effort, just the way Krzyzewski has stressed for his 35 seasons at Duke. What had been wide open 3-pointers early for Michigan State became contested shots and when the Blue Devils started getting up and on the Spartans, the points were suddenly tough to come by.

“After the first four minutes, we were a different team. We played great basketball tonight, especial-

ly on the defensive end,” Krzyzewski said. “I’m so proud of my guys because they beat a great team.”

The win improved Krzyzewski’s record in national semifinal games to 9-3 and that includes 3-0 in Indianapolis where the Blue Devils won it all in 1991 and 2010. They had some success earlier this season in Indianapolis as well, beating Michigan State 81-71 on Nov. 18 at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in the Champions Classic.

A win on Monday night against Wisconsin would mean a fifth national championship for Krzyzewski breaking a tie with Kentucky’s Adolph Rupp and leaving him behind only John Wooden, who won 10 at UCLA.

Kentucky’s perfect season ends with loss to Wisconsin

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Nobody ever said they were perfect. Now, the Kentucky Wildcats aren’t undefeated, either.

The hard-nosed Wisconsin Badgers did what nobody else could Saturday night — knocking off the Wildcats 71-64 behind 20 points and 11 rebounds from Frank Kaminsky and a clutch comeback down the stretch.

Now, it’s Wisconsin heading to the final to play Duke, an 81-61 winner over Michigan State in the earlier — and much less entertaining — semifinal.

“It gives us another 40 minutes, I know that,” said Wisconsin coach Bo Ryan, who leads the Badgers to their first final since 1941.

And Kentucky has a long ride home, finishing the season at 38-1 — two wins short of becoming the first undefeated team in college basketball since the 1975-76 Indiana Hoosiers. Instead, these NBA-ready group of Wildcats join the star-studded 1991 UNLV team as the latest to take an undefeated record into the Final Four but lose in the semifinals.

So much has been made of Kentucky’s unflappability when things don’t look so good — like when the Wildcats got outplayed against Notre Dame last week but somehow pulled

This time, though, it was Wisconsin that came up clutch.

Trailing by four and gasping for breath after going 6 minutes without a bucket, the Badgers (363) responded with an 8-0 run to take a lead Kentucky couldn’t overcome.

Indians, Corey Kluber Serena wins 8th Key Biscayne agree on 5-year contract title by beating Suarez Navarro

AP Photo

In this Sept. 11, 2014, file photo, Cleveland Indians starting pitcher Corey Kluber delivers against the Minnesota Twins during a baseball game in Cleveland.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Corey Kluber has been rewarded for his Cy Young season. The Indians can only hope he can be that good again.

K lu b e r a n d th e c lu b agreed to terms on a fiveyear contract, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press on Saturday night.

The deal includes two club options, the person said, and is contingent upon him passing medical tests, which should be concluded within the next few days.

The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the Indians do not comment during contract talks.

Kluber went 18-9 with a 2.44 ERA for Cleveland last season, his first full year in the majors. He’s scheduled to pitch Monday’s season opener at Houston, and it’s possible the Indians will wait until later in the week to announce the deal.

The club signed second baseman Jason Kipnis to a six-year, $52 million deal last season hours before the home opener. Cleveland opens redesigned Progressive Field on Friday against AL Central rival Detroit.

Kluber’s new deal locks up a valuable player the mid-market Indians strongly believe in, and it allows them to avoid going to salary arbitration with him over the next few years. Kluber was under Cleveland’s contractual control through 2018.

The right-hander signed a o n e - y e a r d e a l wo r t h $601,000 last month as talks initially failed to produce a long-term deal. However, his agent, B.B. Abbott, continued to have discussions with the club and the sides were able to reach a deal on the Indians’ last day of spring training.

Kluber will turn 29 on April 10, and general manager Chris Antonetti made it clear during camp that the club was interested in investing in him for the future.

“There’s not a better guy to believe in,” Antonetti said.

Last season, Kluber made $514,000 and became the third pitcher in club history and fourth overall since 1987 to win 18 games, record a sub-2.50 ERA and strike out at least 260. Hall of Famer Bob Feller (1946) and Luis Tiant (1968) did it for Cleveland, and Roger Clemens, Randy Johnson and Pedro Martinez were the other major leaguers to accomplish the feat in the past 27 years.

The Indians also want to lock up No. 2 starter Carlos Carrasco, who was one of the AL’s top pitchers in the second half last season.

Carrasco went 8-7 with a 2.55 ERA in 15 starts. He split the season between the bullpen and rotation, but came on down the stretch, going 4-0 in six starts from Aug. 10 to Sept. 7. He shut out Houston on Sept. 17.

KEY BISCAYNE, Fla. (AP) — Clutching her latest trophy, Serena Williams brushed confetti from her arms and smiled for the cameras as she chatted with Martina Navratilova, her relaxed multitasking a reflection of vast experience with championship ceremonies.

Williams wins everywhere she goes, and she wins on Key Biscayne more than anywhere else. She earned her eighth title in the tournament Saturday and remained unbeaten this year by drubbing Carla Suarez Navarro 6-2, 6-0 in the Miami Open final.

Williams became the fourth player to win the same WTA event at least eight times. Navratilova won Chicago 12 times, the most titles by a woman at any tournament.

“I’d like to believe the older I get, the better I get,” said Williams, 33. But she grimaced when asked if she

“I hope not,” she said. “ I would be how old? No, let’s pray that I don’t get to 12.”

Navratilova was on hand to present the trophy, the second this year for the top-ranked Williams. She won her 19th Grand Slam championship at the Australian Open in January, and has now won 12 con-

secutive finals.

Sei Young Kim Pacers’ Paul George to return opens 3-shot lead against Miami after leg injury

AP Photo

Sei Young Kim, of South Korea, watches her tee shot on the second hole during the third round of the LPGA Tour ANA Inspiration golf tournament at Mission Hills Country Club on Saturday in Rancho Mirage, Calif.

RANCHO MIRAGE, Calif.

(AP) — Sei Young Kim used to dream about winning at Mission Hills when she watched the LPGA Tour’s first major championship of the season on television in South Korea.

“When Grace Park and Stacy Lewis won it, I remember them jumping into the pond,” Kim recalled Saturday after opening a three-stroke lead in the ANA Inspiration.

Kim will play alongside Lewis today.

“I’m getting a kick out of it because this is a tournament that I’ve watched since I was young,” Kim said through a translator. “To be here playing against the players that I’ve watched, I mean, I can’t believe it. ... If I were to win it tomorrow, it would be the biggest dream ever to come true for me,” Lewis was second after a 68.

“I’d probably even chicken out in starting a conversation,” Kim said. “But you know, just to be able to play with her on the final day, it’s an honor.”

The winner will take the traditional leap into Poppie’s Pond.

“For sure, it wouldn’t be bad jumping into that pond,” Kim said.

The long-hitting Kim shot a 3-under 69 to reach 10 under. She holed a downhill 18-footer from the fringe for a birdie on the par-4 16th, made a 10-foot birdie putt on the par-3 17th and two-putted for par from the back fringe on the par-5 18th.

Lewis bogeyed Nos. 15 and 17. The 30-year-old Texan won the 2011 event

18-0 in 2015. She withdrew before the Indian Wells semifinal last month with a knee injury, and was frustrated with her early play at Key Biscayne, drawing jeers for pounding the court with her racket.

But the sun-splashed crowd was firmly behind her in the final. A roar erupted when she entered the stadium, and she had the fans cheering her winners from the first point.

“It feels really good to have eight under my belt,” Williams said. “Can’t say I thought I would win eight, especially in the beginning of the week. It just feels really weird.”

Suarez Navarro looked uneasy at the start but managed to hold in her first two service games. Williams pulled away from there, and her grunts grew louder as she closed out the first set.

She won the final 10 games, including 25 of 30 points in the second set.

Mixing pace and direction, Williams won 21 of 22 points on her first serve, and she totaled 29 winners to three for Suarez Navarro.

Williams relied on more than mere power, coming forward to put away a volley on the first point, hitting delicate slice backhands and giving Suarez Navarro fits with her slice serve.

for the first of her 11 LPGA Tour titles.

“It’s just trying to just hang in there,” Lewis said.

“That’s what we’re all trying to do. We’re all just trying to hang in there.”

The 22-year-old Kim won her first LPGA Tour title in February in the Bahamas.

A five-time winner on the South Korean tour, she’s making her 13th LPGA Tour start.

“I feel a little bit pressured right now,” Kim said.

“Back in Korea, when I was playing on the Korean tour, I was known for coming from behind and winning tournaments. But to be in the lead going into the final round on the LPGA is fairly new for me.”

Top-ranked Lydia Ko shot a 74, her second straight over-par round after tying the LPGA Tour record for consecutive rounds under par at 29 on Thursday. She was tied for 48th at 2 over.

“I didn’t feel like it was too bad today,” Ko said. “I just couldn’t get the putts to drop.”

The 17-year-old New Zealander made an 8-foot putt on 18 for her lone birdie of the round. She has at least one birdie in all 187 of her rounds in 49 career events on the tour.

Morgan Pressel, Brittany Lincicome and Ariya Jutanugarn were tied for third at 6 under. Lincicome shot a 70 after driving into the water on 18 and making a bogey. Pressel had a 71, and Jutanugarn shot 66.

Lewis birdied six of the first 12 holes to take the lead at 9 under.

“I kind of hit it all over the place, but I scored really well,” Lewis said.

Williams said she backed off on the velocity of her serve because she had been struggling with it.

“I improvised today,” she said. “I took some pace off to get my first serve in and it worked for me, because I haven’t been serving in this tournament the way I would like to. Improvising was healthy.”

Williams’ demeanor was subdued for most of the final, which was 30 minutes old before her first fist pump. But she wore a big grin as she accepted the trophy.

Now 73-7 at Key Biscayne, Williams has won the past three titles. She considers it her home event because she lives 90 minutes up Interstate 95 in Palm Beach Gardens. She has gone home with the championship trophy eight of the 15 times she has entered, with her first title in 2002.

The 26-year-old Suarez Navarro was playing in the biggest final of her career, and she’ll crack the top 10 next week for the first time.

But she’s 0-5 against Williams, and has won only 12 games total in those matches.

“When I play with Serena, I know that she’s the best,” Suarez Navarro said. “She has the game to make me play bad.”

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Paul George was so excited he took a picture of his game shoes and posted it online.

No more street clothes for the two-time All-Star. The wait is over.

A little more than eight months after breaking his right leg during a Team USA scrimmage in Las Vegas, George will make his season debut Sunday night against Miami. Coach Frank Vogel said George will play about 10 to 15 minutes, likely in the first and third quarters.

“It’s almost like being drafted again and getting thrown back out there again for the first time.

It’s that same feel,” said George, who will be wearing his new No. 13 for the first time.

Larry Bird, the president of basketball operations for the Pacers, said Saturday that George had been cleared for game action a while ago, but was kept out because he was still working out with a limp. Before Friday night’s 93-74 victory over Charlotte, George

started lobbying harder, but still couldn’t convince the top brass to let him play.

Indiana started Saturday in the No. 10 spot in the East, 1 1/2 games behind Miami for the eighth and final playoff spot.

Less than 24 hours after the victory over the Hornets jump-started the Pacers’ fading playoff hopes, Bird and other team officials decided to put their biggest star back on the court.

“He’s not going to run as smooth as he used to, but over time he’ll get better and better. Just in the last month I’ve seen a major difference,” Bird said.

“Everybody thinks Paul George is coming back and that he’s 100 percent, but he’s not 100 percent and he’s in no condition to go out and play a 30-minute game.”

But it’s quite a turnaround from Aug. 1, when George ran into a basketball stanchion and broke his leg in two places. He had surgery within hours, and then returned to Indianapolis three days later.

Food boxes on floor, catnaps as diplomats sealed Iran nuclear deal WASHINGTON (AP) — Food boxes strewn across the floor.

An espresso machine buzzing constantly in the background.

Physicists catnapping, their heads on tables.

That was the scene at one of Switzerland’s finest hotels, where room service kept the deliveries coming as U.S. diplomats worked feverishly to achieve a landmark nuclear deal with Iran.

If the pressure wasn’t enough, Secretary of State John Kerry kept popping into the room to pull individuals aside or tell them to accelerate their efforts, according to U.S. officials. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk publicly about behind-the-scenes interactions.

From the start of March through Thursday’s breakthrough, Kerry spent 19 days in the Swiss cities of Geneva, Lausanne and Montreux negotiating with the Iranians.

For much of that time, the Europeans, Chinese and Russians stayed away or sent lower-level officials. Kerry and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif spent

Church in Roswell, NM. Shortly after graduation from Goddard High School in May 1981 he attended New Mexico State University and studied General Education and Business Administration. Randy moved to Arizona in 1990 and lived in several cities in and around Phoenix.

He crafted many beautiful stained glass art. He shared these gifts with family and friends. He also collected old bottles and filled them with his special trinkets. He was an avid Snoopy, I Love Lucy and Santa collector. He loved professional sports especially the teams of Arizona.

Randy is survived by his sister, Elizabeth Ann (Stirling) Hall, his three nephews, Eli (Crystal) Mascarenas, Nathan (Darla) Mascarenas and Ethan Wells and his uncle Arlis (Georgia) Hinson. He is also survived by his many friends including Eric, Richard, Tommy, Wayland, Larry, Jesse and Yvette. He also leaves behind his Chihuahuas, Rita and Miguel.

Randy is preceded in death by his father William (Bill) E. Carter and his mother Sarah Lynn (Hinson) Carter.

Private graveside services will be held at a later date in Roswell, New Mexico.

more than 10 hours together in one-on-one sessions.

The last round of discussions began March 26 with the goal of wrapping up work within five days.

The U.S. would extend the talks by two days, regularly preparing the plane for departure so the Iranians would not think the talks were open-ended.

Journalists were told three times to drop off their bags, only to be instructed to extend their hotel room bookings. Plane crews kept bumping up against mandatory rest periods after 15 hours on standby.

Kerry tried to keep a clear head, taking to his bicycle during the limited down time he had. Of his three rides, two were interrupted when President Barack Obama called for an update on the status of the negotiations.

In those instances, Kerry had to rush back to Lausanne’s 19th century Beau-Rivage Palace to dial into secure calls.

When talk of physics with the Iranians got too nitty-gritty, Kerry and Zarif sent top scientists out of the room to

discuss the matter fully.

U.S. Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz and Iranian atomic energy chief Ali Akbar Salehi, who studied at M.I.T. at the same time, would meet one on one and then report back on what they discussed.

When Kerry needed calculations or tweaks, officials described him putting his team to work and sometimes popping in to let them know they needed to move more quickly.

Kerry also got involved in details as granular as travel plans for the other foreign ministers and helping with scheduling conflicts. After Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov left, Kerry persuaded him to come back.

The critical meeting with the Iranians lasted nine hours between Wednesday night and Thursday morning.

Emotions at times ran high as sleep deprivation kicked in.

Funeral Services are pending for Augustine Horton, 52, and will be announced by Anderson-Bethany Funeral Home when they are finalized.

Craigslist helps The Jag recover guitar stolen at SXSW AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — An online offer of an expensive guitar for $250 has led to an arrest and recovery of another instrument reported stolen during the South by Southwest festival.

Travis County jail records show a 17-year-old Austin resident was being held Saturday on a felony theft

charge. Online records don’t list an attorney for the suspect.

KXAN-TV reports a Mississippi-based band called The Jag had $11,000 worth of equipment stolen March 17 in Austin.

A Craigslist shopper Tuesday saw an ad for a pricey Fender Stratocaster, met the

suspect but didn’t buy anything. The potential buyer later went online and discovered the reported theft.

The suspect later allegedly offered the shopper a Les Paul guitar. That $4,000 stolen instrument was recovered after the arrest.

The Stratocaster remains missing.

‘Black box’ shows co-pilot sped up plane on descent

PARIS (AP) — Information retrieved from the “black box” data recorder of a doomed German jet shows its co-pilot repeatedly accelerated the plane before it slammed into the French Alps, investigators said Friday.

France’s air accident investigation agency, BEA, provided the disturbing new details a day after a gendarme found the blackened data recorder buried in debris scattered along a mountainside ravine.

Based on an initial reading of the recorder, the revelation strengthened investigators’ early suspicions that co-pilot Andreas Lubitz meant to destroy the Germanwings A320.

French and German investigators are still trying to figure out why. All 150 people aboard Flight 9525 from Barcelona to Duesseldorf were killed in the March 24 crash, which has been a reminder of the trust that passengers place in pilots.

The BEA said the preliminary reading of the data recorder shows that the pilot used the automatic pilot to put the plane into a descent and then repeatedly during the descent adjusted the automatic pilot to speed up the plane.

The agency says it will continue studying the black box for more complete details of what happened. The Flight Data Recorder records aircraft parameters such as the speed, altitude, and actions of the pilot on the commands.

Recording from the plane’s other black box — the cockpit voice recorder — previously indicated that Lubitz locked the pilot out of the cockpit and deliberately crashed the plane, investigators have said.

Mountain officers and trained dogs are continuing to search the crash site.

When the terrain is fully cleared of body parts and belongings, a private company will take out the large airplane debris.

Hundreds of victims’ relatives have traveled to the region, officials say.

French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve, visiting the area Friday in a visibly somber mood, praised residents who opened up their homes to grieving relatives as well as police and others behind the often-jarring recovery efforts.

“No one is ever prepared to face such an event,” he said. “And yet immediately, a show of solidarity got organized — one of an entire region, the beautiful solidarity of people from the mountains; the one also through the state services.”

Separately Friday, the Paris prosecutor’s office announced it is looking into claims that information from the earliest phase of investigation into the crash was wrongly leaked

to the media.

The prosecutor’s probe follows a lawsuit filed last week by SNPL, France’s leading pilots union over the leaks. The suit doesn’t name an alleged perpetrator, a method in French law that leaves investigators to determine who is at fault.

The union is claiming a violation of French law about keeping information secret about ongoing investigations. Many pilots fear that details about the crash could damage public trust in an industry whose image has already been jolted by a string of recent incidents, like the mysterious disappearance of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 a year ago.

Lubitz, 27, spent time online researching suicide methods and cockpit door security in the week before crashing Flight 9525, prosecutors said Thursday — the first evidence that the fatal descent may have been a premeditated act.

German prosecutors say Lubitz’s medical records, from before he received his pilot’s license, had referred to “suicidal tendencies.”

Lufthansa, Germanwings’ parent company, said it knew six years ago that he had had an episode of “severe depression” before he finished his flight training.

Marseille prosecutor Brice Robin says his investigation is focusing on France for now, but he has filed a formal request for judicial cooperation from Germany that could expand the scope of his probe.

He said French investigators believe that Lubitz was conscious until the moment of impact, and appears to have acted repeatedly to stop an excessive speed alarm from sounding.

“It’s a voluntary action that guided this plane toward the mountain, not only losing altitude but correcting the aircraft’s speed,” he said Thursday.

Alice Coldefy, the mountain rescue officer who found the data recorder, described her unexpected discovery in a spot that had already been repeatedly searched.

“I found a pile of clothes, we were searching it, we were moving them downhill and while doing this I discovered a box. The color of the box was the same as the gravel, of the black gravel, that is everywhere at the crash site,” she told reporters in Seyne-lesAlpes.

So-called black boxes are actually orange, but this one had burned up in the crash and blended with the dark earth covering the area, known to local guides as “the black lands.”

“I didn’t realize I had found it and I wasn’t thinking it was possible to find it among all this debris,” she said.

Saudi-led coalition airdrops arms to Yemeni forces

SANAA, Yemen (AP) — A Saudi-led coalition trying to halt the advance of Yemen’s Shiite rebels airdropped weapons to beleaguered fighters in a southern port city on Friday, while al-Qaida militants overran a key military base in eastern Yemen, further expanding their gains in this violence-wracked country.

The developments underscore the magnitude of Yemen’s turmoil and the swift unraveling of the country’s military and other forces still loyal to embattled President Abed Rabbo Mansour Hadi, who fled Yemen to Saudi Arabia last week.

On one side, there is the ferocious fighting between Shiite rebels known as Houthis and southern militias loyal to Hadi. On the other, Yemen’s al-Qaida branch has been widening its area of influence in the country and gobbling up more territory.

Al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, as the branch is named, has benefited from Yemen’s political crisis ever since the Houthis first surged from their northern strongholds last year to take over the capital, Sanaa, and much of the north. The rebels are backed in their push by military and police forces loyal to Hadi’s predecessor, ousted autocrat Ali Abdullah Saleh.

On Thursday, al-Qaida militants overrun Mukalla, a major port city in southern Yemen and the provincial capital of the country’s largest province, Hadra-

mawt, seizing government buildings and freeing inmates from a prison, including a top Saudi-born leader.

The militants consolidated their hold of Mukalla on Friday, capturing its port and a major army base in the city, facing little resistance, said military officials. Soldiers fled the base without a fight as the militants advanced toward the city’s airport.

Hadramawt, which had been mostly peaceful as the crisis in Sanaa and Aden was building up, has a long stretch of the border with Saudi Arabia on one side and lies on the Arabian Sea on the other, making it strategically significant. It also houses key oil companies and close to the Mukalla port are fuel tanks that feed three major provinces.

Hadramawt’s governor, Adel Ba-hamed, described the fall of Mukalla as part of a “scenario aimed at dragging the province and its residents” into the chaos across Yemen.

“The changes are terrifying,” said activist Mohammed al-Sharafi, adding he worries al-Qaida’s presence will bring the Houthis to fight the militants, which in turn could invite Saudi-led airstrikes.

To the west of Mukalla, coalition airstrikes continued to target Shiite rebels advancing on the southern port city of Aden, Yemen’s major hub and the embattled Hadi’s last seat of power before he fled to Saudi Arabia.

Coalition planes air-

dropped weapons to fighters battling the Houthis in Aden early Friday, the first such airdrop since the strikes began nine days ago.

Saudi Brig. Gen. Ahmed Asiri, the coalition spokesman, told reporters in Riyadh that the fighters in Aden have managed to “change the situation on the ground.” He said the coalition was giving them “logistical support.”

Street battles intensified in several Aden districts Friday, including the vicinity of a major weapons depot, according to the military officials. They said that weapons were dropped above the city’s port.

Local pro-Hadi fighters, who are poorly armed, have been trying to keep the Houthis from overrunning Aden and the surrounding province and have often complained of lack of weapons and leadership. Ali Hussein, one of the fighters, told The Associated Press over the phone that there is “near absence of leadership and coordination.”

Overnight airstrikes focused on Aden’s rebel-held airport, and at least 30 rebels and Saleh’s forces were killed in the strikes, according to medical officials.

In the town of al-Mualla, also in Aden province, pro-Hadi fighters fought with the rebels on Friday, leaving at least eight dead on both sides, according to medical officials there. All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because

they were not authorized to speak to the media.

To the north of Aden, the rebels and Saleh loyalists shelled the city of Dhale and its surroundings for more than two hours on Friday, according to activist Ahmed Harmal. They area is a gateway to Aden.

Coalition planes also bombed the rebel-held municipal council building in Sanaa, killing three guards and wounding 32 civilians, the Interior Ministry said Friday.

The U.N. under-secretary general for humanitarian affairs, Valerie Amos, said Thursday that the violence in Yemen has killed an estimated 519 people in the past two weeks, 90 of them children, and that tens of thousands are fleeing their homes.

According to Abdel-Nasser al-Wali, a top medical official in Aden, 150 civilians were killed in Aden alone since March 28. The official said two Red Crescent ambulance workers were also killed by the rebels, who seized their vehicles.

Late Friday, the Saudi Interior Ministry said two border guards on the kingdom’s frontier with Yemen were killed in a cross-border shootout, according to the official Saudi Press Agency. It was the second reported fatal shooting along the border since the airstrikes started; a Saudi border guard was reported killed earlier this week in a similar incident.

Walker’s Wisconsin still lags nation in job growth

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Scott Walker has transformed Wisconsin politics, winning three elections in four years and signing laws that weaken unions, crippling a key ally of the Democratic Party.

But the likely Republican presidential contender has had less success changing Wisconsin’s economy and budget. The state lags in job growth and its budget faces a shortfall. It’s a record that complicates Walker’s path in early primary states as he sells himself as a reformer.

“Most of his activity was more politically focused than economically, job-creation focused,” said John Torinus, a Milwaukee businessman and venture capitalist who nevertheless praises some of Walker’s moves. “He was going to concentrate on job creation with a laser-like focus and he got distracted.”

Wisconsin has added private-sector jobs at a lower rate than the national average since July 2011 — six months after Walker took office. Walker promised in the 2010 campaign that if elected his policies would create 250,000 private sector jobs. But only about 145,000 such jobs were created over his first four years.

Wisconsin ranked 40th in private sector job growth for the 12 months ending in September, said the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.

Walker has called hiring in his state the “gold standard” for measuring his performance.

Still, there are positive economic signs Walker relies on to defend his record. Wisconsin’s unemployment rate has dropped from 8.1 percent to 5 per-

cent over his time in office.

The state has seen a higher rate of new businesses starting than the rest of the country and income growth for Wisconsin residents has exceeded the national average.

Per capita income growth in Wisconsin exceeded per capita American income growth.

Walker “wasn’t afraid to set big, bold goals to get Wisconsin back on track,” said AshLee Strong, spokeswoman for Walker’s political group, Our American Revival. “The governor is now taking his reform ideas that led to this economic success in Wisconsin and sharing them nationally.”

Heavily reliant on manufacturing, Wisconsin has perennially lagged the nation in job creation and often used fiscal tricks to paper over budget deficits.

Walker vowed to change that when he ran in 2010.

His most renowned move, just six weeks into his first term in 2011, was to curtail public unions’ collective bargaining power while also forcing them to pay more for pension and health care benefits.

Following weeks of protests, and the fleeing of Democratic state senators for three weeks to try to block a vote, Walker got his way. That drama, along with Walker’s 2012 recall victory and other laws he’s signed legalizing concealed weapons, requiring photo ID at the polls and last month’s right-to-work law, are central in his stump speech as he presents himself as a man of action with a record of conservative accomplishments.

To win Senate, Dems turn to candidates who’ve lost before

WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrats are turning to some proven election losers as they aim to retake control of the Senate in 2016.

In Ohio, Ted Strickland, who lost his bid for a second term as governor to former Rep. John Kasich in 2010, is running against Republican Sen. Rob Portman.

In Pennsylvania, former Rep. Joe Sestak wants another shot at Pat Toomey, the onetime Republican congressman who defeated him five years ago.

In Wisconsin, former Sen. Russ Feingold is considered the likeliest Democratic candidate to take on GOP Sen. Ron Johnson, in what would be another 2010 rematch.

Democrats do not have a candidate yet in North Carolina, Alaska or Georgia.

But mentioned most often are the party’s losing Senate nominees from 2014: Michelle Nunn in Georgia and former Sens. Kay Hagan in North Carolina and Mark Begich in Alaska.

Democratic campaign officials note that in Illinois, California, Missouri, Florida and elsewhere, they are putting up fresh candidates, and they say that Strickland, in particular, is a formidable politician who lost narrowly in a difficult year for Democrats. And although Strickland, Feingold and Sestak came up short in their most recent races, all have won more campaigns than they lost.

“Losing in 2010 or 2014, for that matter, I don’t think that makes you a bad candidate — Democrats lost everywhere in those years and a guy like Ted Strickland actually ran a much more competitive race than Democrats did all over the country,” said Justin

Barasky, communications director for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Those were nonpresidential election years, when Democratic President Barack Obama was not on the ballot.

Still, even some Democrats acknowledge that turning to candidates who last ran and lost reflects a spotty bench for a party struggling to win statewide races in contested states. It also shows the difficulty, for either party, of recruiting a candidate willing to take on a solid incumbent such as Portman or Toomey.

It’s evidence, too, of the challenge for Democrats struggling to reclaim the Senate, even in a presidential election year where a younger, more diverse electorate will help their party.

“We’ve had some challenges so far in recruiting candidates for 2016,” acknowledged Jim Manley, a Democratic consultant and former aide to Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev. “But after all it’s always difficult to put up a challenger against an incumbent.” Still, Manley said, “The math is on our side.”

Democrats will be defending 10 seats in November 2016, compared with 24 for the Republicans. Seven of the GOP seats are in states Obama won in 2012.

It’s a reversal from last November, when Democrats were playing defense and trying to hang on in seven states Obama had lost.

Democrats ended up losing nine seats and their Senate majority. To retake it they must net four or five seats, depending which party wins the White House and can send the vice president to cast tie-breaking votes.

Each year there is a special guest at the golf tournament. Last year’s special guest was Jessica Burson, center, Miss New Mexico, pictured with board members from left, Bob Donnell, Steve Wolfe and Robert Sherman. The golf tournament is an all morning event and everyone, including kids, are encouraged to come out. This year’s food will be provided by Los Cerritos and there will be prizes for holes such as first hole-in-one, longest drive and others.

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor Golfers will soon have the chance to win $10,000 in cash while also raising money for the Walker Aviation Museum.

At this year’s golf tournament, the first person to get a hole-in-one on No. 4, a par 3 hole, will get $10,000 in cash, said Bob Donnell, one of the board members for the museum.

This will be the fifth year for the tournament, which is May 9.

“The income that we make off this golf tournament are funds we use for operation for the Walker Aviation Museum,” Donnell said.

Right now the museum is housed in the airport terminal, but come April 9, they might be able to build a new home, said Judy Armstrong, one of the board members for the museum.

“We’re on the City Council agenda for 2.6 acres of land to the east of the airport terminal where we could build our own museum and display our plane and our firetruck,” she said.

Whether the museum gets the 2.6 acres of land or not, the money raised from the annual golf tournament will go to the general operation fund for the museum.

“We really wanted a museum that would really talk about the history … the passion and the lives of the people who served here,” Donnell said.

The museum, and the history, holds a special place in Armstrong’s heart since she lived in the flight path when she moved to Roswell in 1956, she said.

“We would run out every time we heard the plane,” Armstrong said. “My sister and I would go out and we would wave.”

The air force base was such a huge part of Armstrong’s life she said the museum is important to her.

“I want everyone to remember the sacrifice those people made for us,” she said.

Armstrong said when the base closed in 1967, Roswell had changed.

“It was like a ghost town,” she said. “The base is still really an important part of our lives and our economy in Roswell.”

Armstrong said the goal of the Walker Aviation Museum is to make sure citizens know the legacy of the air base.

“It’s always been our hope that along with the legacy … that we look to the future and we provide an educational component,” Donnell said.

“I think that educational component is both a hands-on practical education of math and sciences (and) a historical education of the past.”

Donnell said Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, schools and adults come to the museum to learn about the history of the base.

“There are some people that have forgotten,” he

said. “I think it’s important we remember.”

Donnell said the golf tournament is the main fundraiser of the year for the museum. Teams must be comprised of four people and the cost is $60 per player or $240 for a team.

The golf tournament will be a shotgun start, Donnell said, meaning all teams will start on a different hole.

Throughout the course there will be prize holes, Donnell said. The prize holes include the hole-inone $10,000 hole, a longest drive hole and closest to the pin.

Along with the prize holes there will be sponsor holes, he said. So far the sponsors for the holes are Eastern New Mexico Medical Center, Elwood Staffing and AerSale, which is the major sponsor for the tournament. There are more sponsor holes available as well, he said.

Armstrong said if businesses wish to be a sponsor, there are different levels of sponsorship. For each level of sponsorship, there will be different sizes of signs that will be made and displayed at the tournament. Businesses or individuals can become a sponsor.

If people wish to honor a loved one with a sign at the tournament, the cost is $100. For the sign, Donnell said, they need a picture and all entries must be turned in by April 17.

Busy month ahead for CASA Bowling for the kids

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor

April is an important and busy month for CASA. Not only is April Child Abuse Awareness Month, but it is also Volunteer Appreciation Month.

“It is really the perfect marriage for us,” said Carrie-Leigh Cloutier, executive director for CASA, Court Appointed Special Advocates.

Cloutier said CASA has more than 50 volunteers throughout the year. “(They) advocate in the most challenging of ways for our children who are abused and neglected,” she said. “These are kids who are frighteningly abused … they’re children who are paralyzed with fear and can’t function.”

The volunteers, she said, have the hardest job imaginable.

“They are advocates for these kids,” Cloutier said.

“They turn them from numbers into names and make them real.”

During the month of

April, CASA honors its volunteers, Cloutier said.

While honoring volunteers, CASA brings child abuse to the forefront of people’s minds and brings awareness to the problems in Roswell and in Chaves County.

There will be a child abuse awareness rally April 15 at noon, Cloutier said, on the the courthouse steps.

“We invite the entire community to come and learn more,” she said.

The amount of abuse that occurs in Roswell is shocking, Cloutier said.

“There is not one child in our community who’s not high-risk,” she said. “Social media, drugs (and) pornography at everybody’s fingertip.”

There are 20 programs available at CASA for children such as Girls Circle, Boys Leadership Program, Sand Tray Play Therapy, and Family Support Services.

“Everyone … needs to be aware of how vulnerable our kids are,” she said.

CASA is currently looking for new volunteers. Potential volunteers have to go through 30 hours of training and have a background check done, Cloutier said.

“It’s not a bake sale. It’s the hardest volunteer work you’ll do,” she said. “It needs to be people who like a challenge, people who are up to the challenge.”

Volunteers spend about two or three hours a week at CASA and while it’s not time consuming, Cloutier said it is worth it.

“It is so rewarding … to know that you’ve kept a child safe,” she said.

Currently, CASA is seeing a lot of babies born addicted to meth and most of the cases deal with that.

Cloutier said she could use 10 volunteers right this moment and they would be busy.

People who wish to become a volunteer can go to casakids.org and download the application.

An amount like $60,000 may seem like a lot of money to some people, but for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southeastern New Mexico, that amount doesn’t even cover half a year of operational costs.

To raise money for this year’s operational costs, the annual Bowl for Kids’ Sake will take place April 25 at Center City Lanes.

“It’s kind of a big party,” said Bill Wolf, executive director.

Bowl for Kids’s Sake, Wolf said, is the main fundraiser for BBBS. If people want to attend the event, there are two ways people can get involved.

“One is to form a team and have each person raise $100,” he said. “The second way is to be a sponsor.”

A team must be comprised of five people, Wolf said, and each team is encouraged to raise more than $100 per person.

Forms for the event must be turned in by April 17

and funds are due April 20, five days before the event.

If people wish to donate the day of the event, that is OK too, he said.

There will be three sessions for the event. The first session will be from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., the second session will be from 2-4 p.m. and the final session will be from 5-7 p.m.

BBBS serves children in Roswell, Artesia, Carlsbad, Hobbs and Ruidoso. This year, there was a Bowl for Kids’ Sake in Artesia for the first time, Wolf said.

The Eddy County event raised $18,000, he said.

At BBBS, it costs around $1,500 to start and support a match of a Big and Little for one year, said Amanda Ware, program director. Currently, there are 82 matches in the program, she said.

The reason each match is on the more expensive side, she said, is because there are extensive background checks done on mentors, or See BOWL, Page C2

“Our cost per match is a little high but that is because of all the labor intensive safety features that we have in our program,” she said.

While the cost per match is high, Wolf said there is no cost for the Littles and their families.

Bowl for Kids’ Sake, Ware said, is a thank you event to everyone who helped raise money.

“It’s not about the bowling really,” Wolf said. “It’s about having a good time, celebrating what we’ve done over the past three or four months to raise all the funds.”

West is known recently for her role in the TV musical show “Glee.” With credits that include work for artists such as Dave Stewart of Eurythmics, Prince, John Mayer, bassist, singer and songwriter West is anything more than just another pretty TV face with an unusual hairstyle.

BBBS is also a United Way agency, so they receive some money from the organization as well.

At the event, Ware said, there will be a silent auction.

The event is also a good way to meet the children in the program, she said.

“All the Big Brother and Big Sisters are invited to bowl for free,” Ware said.

BBBS is looking for males to become Bigs and attending the event is a way to get a foot in the door of the program.

“We have a waiting list for … 20 boys,” Ware said.

Lifetime deciding what to French Parliament approves measure against anorexic models do with Will Ferrell movie NEW YORK (AP) — The fate of a Lifetime TV movie featuring Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig remained unclear on Friday after the project’s planned secrecy was spoiled.

The former “Saturday Night Live” stars made the ominously titled “A Deadly Adoption,” playing a couple who befriend a pregnant woman in hopes of adopting her child. Lifetime’s movies, frequently melodramas about life and love that appeal to the network’s primarily female audience, are a genre onto themselves and often ripe for parody.

“We are disappointed that our secret project with Will and Kristen was leaked and the network is determining the fate of the movie,” said Michael Feeney, spokesman for Lifetime’s corporate parent, A&E Networks, on Friday.

A spokesman for the actors’ talent agency had no immediate comment on Lifetime’s plans.

After word of the project got out, Ferrell issued a statement that he and Wiig had decided it was “in the best interest for everyone to forego the project entirely.” Lifetime had said the movie was due to air this summer.

Ferrell’s statement may be an empty threat: Stars generally don’t have the ability to kill an alreadyfilmed project, except in the unusual circumstance where they fully financed the production, said Jonathan Handel, an enter-

Cord-nevers in luck as ‘Mad Men,’ ‘Game of Thrones’ hit Web NEW YORK (AP) — Cord-nevers, you’re in luck.

No more need to beg, borrow or steal your parents’ cable password to keep up with each episode of “Mad Men” or “Game of Thrones.”

When the hit shows return in the next few days, they will be available for streaming online with no cable or satellite subscription.

Here’s where you can watch.

“Mad Men”

The show is returning to AMC on Sunday to start its final seven-episode run.

The channel is available through Dish’s $20-a-month Sling TV streaming service and Sony’s $50-a-month PlayStation Vue. You can sign up for Sling TV at sling.com and watch through a num-

ber of apps. Sony’s service requires a PlayStation 3 or 4 and limits viewing to your home. (Plus, you need to live in New York, Chicago or Philadelphia for Vue.) Besides watching the channel live, Sling TV offers the past few episodes on demand through its apps.

Vue will let you record the show for viewing within 28 days.

Not caught up on where Don Draper, Peggy Olson and the other advertising executives stand? You can watch past seasons through Netflix or buy individual episodes or seasons through iTunes, Amazon or Google Play.

Don’t want to subscribe to Sling TV or Vue for new episodes? You’ll likely be able to buy them through iTunes, Amazon or Google Play the next day.

“Game of Thrones”

The HBO drama returns for a fifth season on April 12.

By then, HBO will debut its stand-alone streaming service, HBO Now. Cablevision’s Internet-access subscribers will be able to get HBO Now for an undisclosed price. Owners of Apple TVs, iPhones or iPads will be able to sign up through Apple’s iTunes for $15 a month.

HBO Now won’t operate exactly like the regular HBO cable channel. There might be a slight delay, but each new episode is expected to appear on the app before it finishes playing on TV. Sling TV will offer HBO for $15 as an add-on to those who subscribe to its basic service. The past few episodes are expected to be available on demand.

PARIS (AP) — In one of the most image-conscious cities on earth, France’s Parliament has moved to make it a crime to use anorexic models or encourage anorexia, as authorities try to crack down on the glorification of dangerously thin women.

Other countries including Israel and Spain have taken similar action. The French measures would only apply within France, but could have symbolic impact beyond, because of its outsized influence in setting style trends around the world.

“It’s not just about protecting the models but also teenagers, because this body-image pressure also affects them and contributes to the emergence of eating disorders and tendencies to eat less and less,” said Olivier Veran, a neurologist and legislator who championed the anorexia measure.

The lower house of Parliament adopted the amen d men t on mod els Friday, as part of a larger public health bill working its way through the legislature. The bill goes to a full vote next week, and then goes to the Senate.

The amendment forbids anyone with a body mass index below a certain level from earning money as a model. The level — based on height and weight — would be defined later by decree if the law is definitively passed.

Any modeling agency or person who pays a model below that index would face up to six months in prison and 75,000 euros ($80,000) in fines if convicted.

“The idea behind this law is not to send people to prison or fine them,” said Veran. “The law will be dis-

The measure’s defenders say they are targeting modeling agencies and protecting the models from pressure to lose weight.

The French Fashion Federation did not respond to phone calls and emails Friday seeking comment on the bill. Several French modelling agencies contacted by The Associated Press refused to comment until the law is finalized.

One agency representative described pressure from designers for thin models, but insisted that his agency did not employ anyone anorexic because they are suffering from a sickness. He spoke on condition of anonymity because his agency is concerned about repercussions from the bill.

The World Health Organization says that a body mass index of less than 18.5 is “underweight.”

Britain’s National Health Service says adults with

anorexia generally have a body mass index of less than 17.5. That would correspond to a woman who is about 5 foot 7 and 112 pounds.

French lawmakers adopted a related amendment earlier this week targeting those who run pro-anorexia websites, and another that would require publications to publish a note telling readers when they have altered a picture to make a model look thinner — or less anorexic.

“When you have websites dedicated to helping you hide from your family, your doctor, your friends that you are not eating, throwing up after meals or taking laxatives, when you have websites detailing what is it to be a perfect anorexic by telling you how to ingest cotton balls, drink tea and let them swell in your stomach to block your appetite, we are faced with a problem,” Veran said.

These websites, Veran said, are “aimed at an audience of minors, they are weak and it is normal that authorities take steps to put an end to it.”

However, the sites are often blogs run by teenagers themselves, making enforcement complicated.

Similar anti-anorexia measures in 2008 failed to get final approval in the French legislature, and this effort has also met resistance, including from health professionals who fear it will further stigmatize anorexic youth and make it harder to diagnose and treat them.

Up to 40,000 people are estimated to have anorexia in France, 90 percent of whom are women, according to the health ministry.

Roswell Daily Record

A historic Christian library is saved from militants MAR MATTI MONASTERY, Iraq (AP) — As Islamic State group militants advanced toward this monastery perched on a mountain in northern Iraq, the monks rushed to protect a cherished piece of their heritage: Their library of centuries-old Christian manuscripts. Dozens of the handwritten tomes were spirited to safety in nearby Kurdish-ruled areas.

There they remain, hidden in a non-descript apartment in the Kurdish city of Dohuk where Christians who have fled the extremists’ onslaught are living and watching over them.

The Associated Press was allowed rare access to the library, a collection of copies of Bibles and biblical commentaries, mostly written in Syriac — a form of the ancient Semitic Aramaic language — and mostly dating back 400-500 years. The oldest is a copy of the letters of Saint Paul, some 1,100 years old. The bound tomes, some with tattered pages written in black and red ink, lay on shelves.

Their rescue is a bright spot in the devastating onslaught by the Sunni extremists against Iraq’s people — particularly religious and ethnic minorities — and Iraq’s heritage, as they took over much of northern and western Iraq the past year.

When they captured Iraq’s second largest city, Mosul, and other parts of the north last summer, most Christians and other minorities fled the city and nearby towns for the Kurdish autonomous zone further north. The militants seized churches and monasteries in and around Mosul, removing symbols of Christianity like the cross and blowing some up. They have also attacked Sunni Muslim shrines they consider idolatrous. In recent months they have accelerated their campaign to destroy more ancient sites, like the 3,000-year-old ruins of Nimrud; they shattered artifacts in Mosul’s museum and burned

hundreds of books at Mosul’s library and university, including rare manuscripts.

The Syriac Orthodox Christians of Mar Matti, a monastery that dates back to the 4th century, moved to rescue their library of around 80 manuscripts in August, at the height of the Islamic State group’s blitz, when its fighters were bearing down from Mosul to the north, toward the monastery, 35 kilometers (20 miles) from the city. Their advance was halted by Kurdish pershmerga fighters, who now hold the road leading to the monastery.

That was a relief to the monastery’s monks and their community. But they aren’t taking any chances and are leaving the manuscripts where they are until the group is decisively defeated.

“Thank God they were unable to reach the monastery,” said Raad Abdul-Ahed, a local Christian who helped transport the library. But “we will keep it here until the crisis is over, until the situation is stabilized.” AbdulAhed, who fled his hometown near Mosul, now lives in the apartment with the manuscripts.

Still, their absence leaves a void — sentimental and practical — for the handful of monks who continue to live at Mar Matti, along with seven Christian families who have taken refuge there

after fleeing their nearby town of Bashiqa. They can still see their houses — just a 10 minute drive away down the mountain — but they can’t return since it’s still held by the Islamic State group’s fighters.

The monastery used to get throngs of visitors — nearly 2 million a year from around Iraq, the monks say. Now it’s too dangerous, and the only visitors are Kurdish fighters, taking a break from battle to take pictures of the site.

The Syriac Orthodox archbishop for northern Iraq, Saliba Shimon, now lives at the monastery after fleeing his home village outside Mosul. There, he teaches Syriac to students. Unfortunately, the rich trove of Syriac tomes is no longer there for him to use.

He wanders through the empty library room, showing where the manuscripts used to be.

He says many other Christian manuscripts that were scattered in churches in villages around Mosul are now lost after the militants overran the areas. He and other bishops managed to bring only a few as they fled.

“Each manuscript has its own spiritual value,” he said.

“When we keep the manuscript, we are not doing it for the sake of its financial value, but rather because of its spiritual value.”

As Islamic State group militants advanced toward this monastery in northern Iraq last year, the monks were determined to protect a fragile, vital piece of their heritage: They sent their library of centuries-old handwritten manuscripts to safety. Now the documents are hidden in an apartment in Iraq’s Kurdish areas.

State lacks evidence, frees man after 30 years on death row BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) — A man who spent nearly 30 years on Alabama’s death row walked free Friday, two days after prosecutors acknowledged that the only evidence they had against him couldn’t prove he committed the crime.

Ray Hinton was 29 when he was arrested for two 1985 killings. Freed at age 58, with gray hair and a beard, he was embraced by his sobbing sisters, who said “Thank you, Jesus,” as they wrapped their arms around him outside the Jefferson County Jail.

Hinton had won a new trial last year after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that his trial counsel was inadequate. Prosecutors on Wednesday moved to drop the case after new ballistics tests contradicted those done three decades ago. Experts couldn’t match crime scene bullets to a gun found in Hinton’s home.

“I shouldn’t have sat on death row for 30 years. All they had to do was test the gun,” Hinton said.

The state of Alabama offered no immediate apology.

“When you think you are high and mighty and you are above the law, you don’t have to answer to nobody. But I got news for them, everybody who played a part in sending me to death row, you will answer to God,” Hinton said. “They just didn’t take me from my family and friends.

They had every intention of executing me for something I didn’t do,” Hinton said.

Hinton was arrested in 1985 for the murders of two Birmingham fast-food restaurant managers after the survivor of a third restaurant robbery identified Hinton as the gunman. Prosecution experts said at the trial that bullets recovered at all three

crime scenes matched Hinton’s mother’s .38-caliber Smith & Wesson revolver. He was convicted despite an alibi: He had been at work inside a locked warehouse 15 minutes away during the third shooting.

“The only thing we’ve ever had to connect him to the two crimes here in Birmingham was the bullets matching the gun that was recovered from his home,” Chief Deputy District Attorney John R. Bowers, Jr. told The Associated Press on Thursday.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled last year that Hinton had “constitutionally deficient” representation at trial because his defense lawyer wrongly thought he had only $1,000 to hire a ballistics expert to rebut the state’s case. The only expert willing to take the job at that price struggled so much under cross-examination that jurors chuckled at his responses.

Attorney Bryan Stevenson, who directs Alabama’s Equal Justice Initiative, called it “a case study” in what is wrong with the judicial system. He said the trial was tainted by racial bias and that Hinton, an impoverished African-American man, did not have access to a better defense.

“We have a system that doesn’t do the right thing when the right thing is apparent. Prosecutors should have done these tests years ago,” Stevenson said.

The independent experts Stevenson hired to re-examine this evidence after taking on Hinton’s case in 1999 “were quite unequivocal that this gun was not connected to these crimes,” he said. “That’s the real shame to me. What happened this week to get Mr. Hinton released could have happened at least 15 years ago.”

Stevenson then tried in vain for years to

persuade the state of Alabama to re-examine the evidence. The bullets only got a new look as prosecutors and defense lawyers tangled over a possible retrial following the Supreme Court ruling.

The result: Three forensics experts could not positively conclude whether the bullets were fired from Hinton’s revolver, or whether they came from the same gun at all, according to the state’s request to dismiss the case against Hinton. Bowers said the “bullets were so badly mutilated that they did not have the necessary microscopic markings to make a conclusive determination.”

Asked how the state’s conclusions could be so different this time, Bowers said they put the same question to the experts, who said test standards have become more “conservative.”

“Some things back then that experts would be willing to attest to, they would not be willing to attest to now. They would need more now,” he Bowers said.

The science of bullet matching remains the same as it was 30 years ago, even though microscopes have improved since then: A gun is test-fired and the bullet is compared with a slug from the crime scene. Problems can result mainly through human error, or when analysts aren’t qualified, said Pete Gagliardi, a former ATF special agent in charge and vice president of Forensic Technology Inc. Hinton was one of the longest-serving inmates on Alabama’s death row, and is one of the longest-serving inmates to be released in the United States. But Stevenson said there are many others behind bars who were convicted “based on bad science.”

Anthony Ray Hinton wipes away tears after greeting friends and relatives upon leaving the Jefferson County jail, Friday, April 3, 2015, in Birmingham, Ala. Hinton spent nearly 30 years on Alabama’s death row, and was set free Friday after prosecutors told a judge they won’t re-try him for the 1985 slayings of two fast-food managers.

“We’ve allowed too many people to assert things in court that are not credible or reliable, painted over with this kind of scientific expertise which means there could be a lot of wrongful convictions,” Stevenson said.

Hinton left the jail for a cemetery, planning to put flowers on the grave of his mother, who died in 2002.
