Groups, volunteers honor veterans

By Jared Tucker Multimedia Journalist

A member of the EagleRiders motorcycle club places American flags at the graves of veterans buried at the Memory Lawn Memorial Park Saturday morning, while flags placed by a different group of volunteers Friday evening fly in the foreground.

A local motorcycle group and its parent fraternal group gathered at the Memory Lawn Cemetery Saturday morning to place flags on the graves of departed veterans and to replace “Old Glory,” which is flying proudly in the center of the cemetery.

It’s a tradition that was started about 30 years ago

by Martha Yates, former Veterans of Foreign Wars Post No. 2575. The annual event was taken over a few years ago by the EagleRiders, the motorcycle club of the Roswell Chapter of the

Fraternal Order of Eagles.

“This is something we are very grateful for,” Yates said.

Though he’s not a veteran, Yates’ grandson, EagleRiders President Michael Guerin, said he’s proud to help honor the local fallen heroes and take over the tradition his grandmother started decades ago.

“A lot of her friends aren’t able to do it anymore, so the last couple of years she’s asked us to step in and do it,” Guerin said. “We’re happy to do it.”

Around 300 of the 600 interred at Memory Lawn are veterans, according to

an article published in July 2014 in the Daily Record.

When Yates, Guerin and the other 20 volunteers showed up Saturday morning, they discovered someone had been there the day before and lined the sidewalks with American flags.

“We don’t know where they came from,” volunteer Patsy Silva said.

Silva’s 19-year-old brother served in the U.S. Army, she said, and was killed while serving in the Vietnam War. She places flags at both Memory Lawn and the Gen. Douglas L. McBride Veteran’s CemeSee VETERANS, Page A3

Book lovers have a friend in Wiser Bush, Christie rise in

defense of Patriot Act

By Jeff Jackson Record Staff Writer

As a Friend of the Library for 10 years, Cindy Wiser considers books some of her best friends.

She’s surrounded by books either at the library, by other people who love books or at Books Again, the bookstore she and other volunteers operate to raise money for Friends of the Library and the Roswell Public Library.

“The main things that we do for the library is we give them money for extra things that go

above and beyond what they are budgeted for,” said Wiser, who has been president of the FOTL board for three years.

“For example, we give them money to buy extra copies of the new bestsellers because See SPOTLIGHT, Page A3 Today’s Forecast

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Likely Republican presidential contenders Jeb Bush and Chris Christie heartily endorsed the Patriot Act on Friday and mocked those who deride the intelligence overhaul passed after the Sept. 11 attacks as an encroachment on civil liberties.

“There is ample evidence that the Patriot Act has

Military ID tags found in Roswell dumpster

By Jared Tucker Multimedia Journalist A Roswell couple has found something that they believe needs to be returned to either the owner or his family, and are asking the public’s help in doing so.

Venus Wooddell said she and her husband were removing some scrap metal from a dumpster on North Main Street Saturday, when they came across a pair of military ID tags, better known as “dog tags.”

She knew right away she needed to track down the rightful owner, or the owner’s family.

“I just didn’t want to see them thrown away,” Wooddell said.

The name on the tag reads, “Basil D. Robinson, and with Memorial Day just one day away, Wooddell feels even more compelled

to seek Robinson out, or his family.

So she enlisted the help of her internet-savvy daughter Tina to spread the word over social media.

So far, she’s been contacted by a person who says Robinson has passed away, and his brother lives outside New Mexico. She was waiting to hear back on some kind of confirmation on that claim at press time Saturday.

Tina says she’s helping the effort to return the tags because if it was her family member she would like to have them back. The potential family member of Robinson she spoke with Saturday said she wears her husband’s original tags while he’s away on deployment, and it gives her comfort.

tery every year. Memorial Day is a special day for her, she said. ”Not only for my brother, but for all the branches of the services,” Silva said.

Silva said she wishes the current wars that the United States is fighting would end. She acknowledges soldiers fight for the freedom of U.S. citizens, but loathes the young lives who have been lost fighting in the Middle East in what she calls a losing battle.

“I know we have freedom, but what’s the use of losing so many young kids?” Silva said. According to the Memory Lawn Memorial Park Facebook page, at least two people, Lisa Shipman and Shelly Forrester placed the flags along the sidewalks Friday evening.

“Our concern is for the many vets buried here and their service to our country and the others who rest here,” Shipman said in an online message to the Daily Record. Shipman acknowledged the community effort from residents who have

“I’m the only person in this national conversation at the moment who has used the Patriot Act, signed off on it and convicted terrorists because of it,” he said.

The forceful defense of the law came as Congress struggled to meet a deadline to renew or replace a portion of the law known as Section 215, which allows the National Security Agency to collect phone records in bulk and the FBI to obtain a wide range of records that agents deem relevant to terrorism investigations.

At multiple campaign stops this week, Bush said the law, signed by his brother, former President George W. Bush, is necessary to “protect the homeland,” adding that an extension “is definitely part

Volunteers placed American flags around the graves of veterans, sidewalks and the entrance sign at the Memory Lawn Memorial Park Friday and Saturday. given their own time to restore the cemetery to a respectable condition.

The cemetery became neglected when the facility’s trust money dried up in 2013, according to previous Daily Record reports.

Chaves County Commissioner Robert Corn was awarded receivership of the cemetery by a district court judge in the wake of a lawsuit filed against the previous owners in 2011.

Improvements have been made such as overhauling the water well and install-

ing a sprinkler system.

Benefactors have donated a solar-powered light so the American flag can fly at night, and moved a veterans memorial headstone to the front of the cemetery since.

“It’s a one-way street,” Corn said. “You spend it, it’s gone. Actually the trust was losing money at the time we were able to settle the trust. We’re just trying to do the best we can with what we’ve got and try and maintain the property,” Corn said in 2014.

Yates and Guerin plan to install a new flag pole that can support a very large flag — the size of the one that flies in the parking lot of the Plains Park Shopping Center on West Hobbs Street.

“We’re still working on it. There’s some logistical stuff ... the powers at be and the whole bit,” Guerin said.

of a comprehensive strategy for foreign policy.”

“I do know, because I’ve checked with a lot of people inside and outside of government, that there’s no evidence, not a shred of evidence, of violations of civil liberties because of the Patriot Act,” Bush told reporters in Salem, New Hampshire, on Thursday.

In oversight reports issued since at least 2003, the Justice Department inspector general has identified dozens of incidents it blamed on the FBI in which demands issued under a separate section of the Patriot Act were unauthorized or improper.

In some cases, the FBI obtained records for phone numbers no longer used by targets of its investigations or permission to conduct the investigations had already lapsed. Some of the FBI violations were deemed “willful and intentional,” according to internal FBI records.

An analysis issued Thursday by the Justice Department’s inspec-

tor general found that FBI agents testified that the law contains valuable investigative tools, but noted agents “did not identify any major case developments” that came from using Section 215.

The Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board, an independent bipartisan agency, declared NSA’s phone records collections program illegal in 2014, and a federal court of appeals reached the same conclusion earlier this month.

“It’s not an accurate statement to say the Section 215 programs haven’t violated rights,” said Neema Singh Guliani of the American Civil Liberties Union, which challenged the NSA phone records sweeps in court. “They’ve had an enormous effect on privacy ... in a way that weakened our protections against government gaining information about innocent people.”

Among Republican senators opposed to allowing the NSA to continue to

gather phone records in bulk are two other GOP White House hopefuls, Sens. Rand Paul and Ted Cruz. They argue the act makes it too easy for intelligence agencies and law enforcement to violate citizens’ constitutional rights with no consequences.

Paul spent 10 hours making that case Wednesday on the Senate floor, where he blasted the law as “the most unpatriotic of acts” and criticized those calling for its renewal. While Christie and Bush didn’t cite Paul or Cruz by name, their comments Friday about the law were aimed their way.

“These same folks who are criticizing this now will be the same people who will stand on Capitol Hill if there’s another attack on America and interrogate a CIA director or the FBI and ask them why they didn’t connect the dots,” Christie said.

that’s what people want obviously when they go to the library. We pay for that, we help fund some of the advertising for the Summer Reading Program, we help to the fund refreshments for the teen nights, things like that. We also help to fund the electronic sign that’s out front of the library.

“When they have things that are above and beyond what their budget can provide they will come to us as one of their possible resources.”

Roswell’s Friends of the Library has more than 150 members and a board of 12 officers and staffs the used bookstore at 404 W. Second St. that has been open for five-and-ahalf years. The concept is not unique to Roswell, although it does stand out among other stores in the state, Wiser said.

“We got the idea from a Friends of the Library bookstore in Colorado. There are other Friends stores, but I have not found one in New Mexico that does things to the extent we do. Albuquerque, they do have a store but I think the library runs it more than volunteers and they sell books in their branches. But a standalone, separate store, I’m not aware of another one in New Mexico,” she said.

In addition to helping bring people to the library, FOTL also brings the library to the people.

“What it does for the library, in addition to the money things, is we have a program called Books on the Go. We put mostly Readers Digest books in local hotel rooms, hospital waiting rooms, the dialysis center, mobile home recreation centers,” Wiser said. “We’ve done that for many, many years.

It’s a little thing we try to do to encourage people to read.

“We also sponsor the Books on Wheels, which is where we have volunteers check out books and take them to people who are homebound. We also have a new thing we started called the Flybriary. We have books at the airport. Actually the Air Center contacted us, because there’s no books out there, and asked if we could do something. Marna (Hunt) kind of runs that. There’s a little table with a bookshelf on it out there.”

The Flybriary program has been in effect for six to eight weeks and has provided about 150 books to travelers, Wiser

said.

“I always say that reading and literacy is my passion.

I know people overuse that phrase but all of us, especially the five of us who kind of run the store, are here at least one full day a week. As a volunteer, that’s a lot,” Wiser said.

“We wouldn’t do this unless we were really passionate about this. So it’s been very fun these 5½ years. The people who work here are awesome.

We have about 25 volunteers I’d say.

“Our customers are just the best people. Just to give you an idea, we’ve never had a bounced check. People that read are just the best people.

They’re reliable, they’re honest people. They’re here because they really love books, too. We get lots of donations, more than we can sell sometimes, but we do try to recycle everything we can’t sell.”

Raising funds to help the library is a financial goal of FOTL, but a larger objective is to help create a reading culture, Wiser said.

“One thing we have said from the beginning about this store is that our purpose is not just to make money. It’s to give people in Roswell a place to buy books that are inexpensive. It’s to recycle the books, give them another life,” Wiser said. “Our purpose of the store is not just to raise money; it’s to promote reading in this community and make it easier for people and make it inexpensive for people because we all have a really firm belief that reading makes you a better person. It makes you more informed, it makes you more compassionate even.

I just think it’s really an important part of a well-rounded person.

“I think that people that don’t read or that just say ‘I just watch TV’ I think that’s sad when it comes to news or entertainment or whatever.”

Small paperbacks cost 25 cents, while big paperbacks and hardcover books are discounted by 75 percent of the cover price, including a new release if one happens to find it.

“Sometimes you can find a brand new hardback book in perfect condition and instead of paying $25 for it you’re going to pay $6 maybe. In May, all the fiction’s a dollar, hardback, paperback, anything. And the bigger paperbacks, they’re priced the same way the hardbacks are,” Wiser said.

Obama’s hot-air commencement address

I didn’t attend my commencement ceremony at American University in Washington, D.C. I chose instead to receive my degree in the mail. I didn’t want to listen to a boring speaker, likely unaffiliated with the school or anyone in it, drone on in Washington’s notorious summer heat.

Too bad graduates of the U.S. Coast Guard Academy did not have the same option. They had to endure a commencement address by President Obama on “climate change.”

Linking the rise of Islamic terrorism to a warming planet, the president told the grads, “Understand, climate change did not cause the conflicts we see around the world. Yet what we also know is that severe drought helped to create the instability in Nigeria that was exploited by the terrorist group Boko Haram. It’s now believed that drought and crop failures and high food prices helped fuel the early unrest in Syria, which descended into civil war in the heart of the Middle

Cal

Thomas Syndicated Columnist East.”

Really? Are young girls and women being raped and forced into slavery because religious fanatics can’t grow crops on arid land? Marie Harf, a State Department spokeswoman, recently claimed that lack of jobs is what turns people into terrorists.

Which is it?

If “climate change” made terrorism possible, how does the president explain violent jihadism dating back to the time of the Prophet Muhammad, long before carbon was a concern, or even a footprint? If unemployment causes terrorism, millions of jobless Americans would be taking up

arms.

No amount of evidence will dissuade a climate change cultist that he is wrong, but for students who might Google the subject for a term paper, let’s try.

Responding to the president’s address, Marc Morano, who runs climatedepot.com (with numerous links to scientific studies, including data from NASA, NOAA, and other credible sources) said this: “It is hard to even take today’s speech by Obama seriously on either a logical, scientific or political level. The speech was so farcical in its claims that it hardly merits a response. It is obvious that the climate establishment is seeking new talking points on ‘global warming’ to change the subject from the simple fact that global temperatures are not cooperating with their claims.”

Don’t you love farce?

According to Remote Sensing Systems (RSS) data, “Since December 1996, there has been no global warming at all. ... A new record length for the Pause:

18 years 5 months. ... The discrepancy between prediction and observation continues to widen.”

In fact, extreme weather has failed to follow the alarmist predictions of climate change cultists. Data readily available and linked to scientific studies through climatedepot.com has found no trends, or declining trends when it comes to the frequency of hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, floods and wildfires.

What about the multiyear drought in California, you might ask? According to NOAA, in 2014 rainfall in California returned to its normal pattern, though reservoirs will take a while to replenish. Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina calls the most recent drought “a manmade disaster. With different policies over the last 20 years, all of this could be avoided.” Appearing on Glenn Beck’s radio program, Fiorina added that the “tragedy” of California is that the state has “suffered from droughts for millennia” and still “liberal environ-

mentalists have prevented the building of a single new reservoir or a single new water conveyance system over decades during a period in which California’s population has doubled.”

Francesco Femia, co-founder of the think tank Center for Climate and Security, speaking with Moyers and Company’s John Light, claims “climate change” contributed to the civil war in Syria. Various liberals back him up.

The Coast Guard Academy graduates deserved better from their command-in-chief. At least Kermit the Frog — who “spoke” at Southampton College on Long Island in 1996 — was entertaining. President Obama’s address was just more hot air on a subject many Americans believe doesn’t hold up to scrutiny. For them, Islamic terrorism, not droughts, ice or tornadoes, presents a far greater clear and present danger.

The surveillance state is illegal

A U.S. appeals court’s ruling that the National Security Agency’s metadata collection was illegal turned the spy state upside down in almost 100 pages of common sense and solid understanding of the rights Americans have under the law.

It shows, once again, that both common sense and a respect for the rights of all Americans seem to be impossible concepts for the leaders of the “free world” to grasp.

The federal appeals court ruling came after Edward Snowden revealed (among other things) that the National Security Agency was scooping up “metadata” (numbers called and received, length of call, date and time) on, well, everyone at home and abroad. They did this by using a secret court authorized by the Patriot Act to issue secret and continuing orders to telephone and Internet companies forcing them to turn over the data and stay silent about it.

When the program was revealed, NSA officials claimed it was authorized under the Patriot Act (which turned out to be a surprise to the actual congressional authors of the act who said it did no such thing) and that our spies were collecting the data and storing it, but only using it when they received a warrant based on probable cause.

In refuting their claims, the appeals court simply pointed to what police can and can’t do under the law. Officers can, for instance, follow someone around while they are in public to build a criminal case against them. This isn’t illegal under the law, simply because people should not expect strict privacy in their day-to-day movements.

However, police officers can’t place a GPS tracker on an individual’s car for a period of time without a warrant.

Courts have held that the defendant’s expectation of privacy had been violated, because the long-term surveillance revealed a “mosaic” of information in which individuals had privacy interests, even in the absence of a privacy interest in discrete pieces of such information.

Police and the NSA might argue that there is no difference between the two, but it’s obvious the difference is breathtaking. The police (and the secret police) should not, without probable cause and a warrant, be able to track anyone and everyone all day, every day for as long as they choose.

They also should not be able to examine every phone call a person makes or — as the world becomes ever more attached to the Internet — every website they visit or interaction they have on the Web. The NSA, the U.S. Justice Department and other members of this nation’s security apparatus believe they have a right to any information about any individual they want at all times. They say they need this to protect Americans from terrorists, even though they are silent when asked about a single terrorist attack that was prevented using these methods.

The Patriot Act always has had a deadline because it gave the government extraordinary powers in a time of crisis.

When that crisis ended, those programs were supposed to end as well. The clear problem with that line of thinking is that the threat of “terrorism” will almost assuredly never end. There will always be someone, somewhere, who wants to kill innocent people for their cause.

Yes, government agents and agencies should do everything in their power to stop terrorism and other threats to the American people. However, it’s clearly time for congress to publicly debate and decide exactly how much power the government should have over the lives of the people they claim to work for.

State schools aren’t as good as you think

By Shawn McCoy Guest Columnist

Politicians lie. This is an unfortunate reality that most people have come to expect.

But as elections come around, we’re supposed to have the opportunity to examine the performance of politicians in office. We have data — unemployment rate, GDP growth, poverty rate, crime, student achievement — that can help us judge whether we should reelect our leaders.

Except that last data point, student achievement, is a statistic that is being gamed by politicians nationwide. Elected officials and bureaucrats are preserving their careers at the cost of our children’s education. When we hear politi-

cians proclaim the gains made in education and the strength of their state’s schools, they are likely citing data that is skewed to deliver a desired result.

A new study released last week by Achieve, a nationally recognized education reform organization, finds that state proficiency test scores in math and reading far overestimate grade-level proficiency in these areas.

Fourth grade reading and eighth grade math scores are considered key indicators of achievement because students need to be able to read by fourth grade and have eighth grade math proficiency to move on to higher-level math.

State proficiency tests showed an average 23.3 percent dif-

ferential for eighth grade math and a whopping 30.3 percent differential for fourth grade reading in comparison to scores from the National Assessment for Education Progress (NAEP). NAEP scores are considered the gold standard for testing by liberals and conservatives, but rarely are parents and students informed of these scores.

The unfortunate outcome of states lowering proficiency standards is that students graduate from high school without being ready for college or their careers. Taxpayers and businesses are spending more money every year to provide remedial courses to high school graduates once they move on to college or the workforce. More than 50 per-

cent of students who enroll in a two-year community college program are required to take remedial courses. Their likelihood of graduating is slim. Higher education is not intended as a way to catch up on the basic math and reading standards that states have eliminated to make parents feel proud and politicians look good.

This “honesty gap” results from a lack of political courage. States have been setting their own standards and defining them too low. “It is an incredible disservice to your citizens,” said Tennessee Governor Bill Haslam, a Republican, in reaction to the study. Delaware Governor See MCCOY, Page A5

Cholesterol-rich foods can be enjoyed sparingly DEAR DOCTOR K: Does the amount of cholesterol you eat affect the cholesterol levels in your blood?

DEAR READER: I’m glad you asked this question, because I think doctors and the news media have not made it clear.

For decades, doctors and food scientists have warned against the dangers of eating foods high in cholesterol. That seemed to make sense. First, high blood levels of so-called “bad” (LDL) cholesterol definitely are bad for your health.

Second, it seems logical that the more cholesterol you take into your body when you eat, the higher the cholesterol in your blood.

But there’s growing agreement among nutrition scientists that cholesterol in food has little effect on cholesterol in the bloodstream. This topic was discussed last year by the

Ask Dr. K United Media Syndicate scientific advisory panel for the not-yet-released 2015 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. A summary statement from their meeting stated that “Cholesterol is not considered a nutrient of concern for overconsumption.” Translation: You don’t need to worry about cholesterol in your food.

What has changed? The cholesterol in your body comes from two sources. Some comes from the cholesterol in your food, but most is made by your liver. If your liver is stimulated

to make lots of cholesterol, levels rise in your blood.

What stimulates the liver to make cholesterol? Primarily, saturated and trans fats. On my website, AskDoctorK.com, I’ve listed foods that are rich in saturated fats and foods rich in trans fats. Saturated fats are abundant in red meat, butter and full-fat dairy products.

Trans fats are abundant in stick margarine, commercially baked goods and fried foods.

Now, I’m not saying you should never eat foods rich in saturated fats or trans fats — just that you should eat them infrequently.

And I’m not saying you should now eat as many eggs, shrimp and other cholesterol-rich foods as you would like.

Eating a lot of cholesterol can raise your blood cholesterol.

For example, we’ve talked previously in this column before about eggs. Current science

finds that it’s OK to eat an egg a day, except for diabetics or people at high risk for heart disease. But eating a lot more eggs than that is not a good idea.

I worry every time I pass on the latest results of nutrition research. That’s because, as with any type of research, the more you study the more you learn. And sometimes what you learn modifies what you previously thought; that can’t be avoided. What you have every right to expect, from your doctor and from columns like this one, is the best current understanding. But sometimes that understanding will be amended by new discoveries.

So when you’re shopping and looking at the Nutrition Facts label on foods, don’t ignore the amount of cholesSee DR. K, Page A5

Being joyful in life is always contagious Be joyous. Be joyous today. Be joyous and contagiously spread your joy to others.

It all starts on the inside. It then continues on the inside. At some point it can end on the inside or it can continue on to the outside.

What is important here is that you control your inside. You determine who can control your inside regardless of what others do on your outside.

Another way to put this is to recognize that life is what you make it. Your experience in walking this world is primarily governed by what happens between your two ears.

What are your “pet peeves?” I know you have them. Have you ever stopped to think about how much your pet peeves steal joy from your life? While you are bothered and busy pointing your finger at another, your joy is being taken from you.

I heard a sermon recently by Max Lucado, the Minister of Preaching for Oak Hills Church in San Antonio, Texas. The sermon was called “Bear With One Another.” He talks about joy, pet peeves, and how the Bible addresses these issues.

It is not uncommon for any of us to be bothered by simple things. We identify them to others when we say things like, “Do you see the way he chews gum with his mouth open?,” “She wears too much make-up,” “He is too critical,” “She is so edgy,” “He is so laid back,” “She knows just how to push other’s buttons,” “He is really annoying,” “If he would just

Rick Kraft

Just A Thought brush his teeth,” or “If she would not wear so much perfume.”

Sometimes we follow up with comments such as the above with “I wish he would_____ or “if only she could______” and then we state action we would like to see taken. We are stating what is bringing us down and why it bothers us.

What does a pet peeve cost?

Every pet peeve takes some of your joy. It writes a check drawing down your happiness account.

It is like you begin the day with a bowlful of ping pong balls that represent joy in your world. If you can end your day with all your ping pong balls, you have lived a joyous day. Each time you exercise a pet peeve, you give away a ping pong ball.

Joy is such a precious commodity. Why do we waste it on silly things? The one who suffers from a pet peeve is not the one who is being criticized, it is the one who is doing the criticizing.

This concept can be broadened outside of pet peeves. We can give away ping pong balls when we get into a critical mode and we allow the acts of others to rob us of joy.

Comments such as “He gets on

my nerves,” “She never puts her clothes in the hamper,” “Why did she get a tattoo?” or “Why did he have to grow that beard?” may not be considered a pet peeve, but can still drag you down.

Before the day is over, many people run out of joy. They have no ping pong balls left. How can you spread joy to others if you are running out of joy in your own life? And who is to blame? We would like to say we lost our joy because of the acts of another, but often it is how we choose to respond to the acts of others.

Life is 10 percent what happens and 90 percent how we respond.

In most instances we should blame ourselves if we are going to blame anyone. We choose to give up our ping pong balls.

Pastor Lucado talks about losing joy being a “love” issue. He cites from the New Testament of the Bible, I Corinthians 13:5 that tells us that love is not easily provoked. Or, as stated in other translations, love is not touchy, quick tempered, irritable, quick to take offense, easily angered, or quick to fly off the handle.

The cure for pet peeves is found at Ephesians 4:2, “Be completely humble and gentle, be patient, bearing with one another in love.”

Patient people still see the peculiarities of others, they just don’t give up joy over it. We must put up with one another.

You can love somebody and not like them. You support them and are there for them and praying for the best for them, but you may not enjoy spending time next to

them. In our daily lives we must learn to put up with a lot in other people.

To bear with someone means to do your best to put up with any oddity they may have.

If you flip this concept you realize that someone else is tolerating your quirks right now. Pastor Lucado said tongue in cheek that “there is only one normal person in this world and my wife is married to him.”

It is clear that we are all different. If you struggle to put up with another, ask yourself who is struggling to put up with you?

Matthew 7:3 and Luke 6:41 quote Jesus asking the question “why do you worry about the speck of dust in your brother’s eye when you have a log in your eye?”

Jesus envisions a person walking around in life with a big piece of wood in his eye pointing out every flaw he can find in another.

Examine yourself first. Jesus said we should see if we can first take the wood out of our own eye.

Then, if it is still necessary, we can address the dust in another’s eye.

What is going to happen to you this week? How will you respond when someone takes up two parking spots or cuts you off in traffic?

What if someone has 16 items in the “10 or less item” store checkout lane? Are you going to give away one of your ping pong balls?

Are you looking past the log in your eye to see the dust in another’s? You lose joy and the other person doesn’t lose a thing.

Do the best you can do is to

bear with one another.

My challenge to you is to live a joyous life. Find joy on the inside.

Work on developing this joy. Try to minimize or even eliminate your pet peeves. The one who is causing your pet peeve may not even know he or she is doing so. Pet peeves hurt the person holding them.

Carry full your bowl of ping pong balls. The devil loves to take these from you as often as you let him. Don’t give them up.

Pastor Lucado closed with a neat example. He talked about a beautiful valley outside of San Antonio with a river he loves to visit. He talked about the trees by the river. Not a one of them is perfect; each one of them is bent.

They were all made that way. But he appreciates the beauty each tree has and how together they contribute to the beauty of the valley.

The sooner we can find the beauty in our “bentness,” the better. May we see other’s bentness for what they are, be patient and understanding, and recognize the beauty in others.

May you end each day with your bowl still full of ping pong balls.

Just a joyous thought.

Jack Markell, a Democrat, explained last week that his state is actively working to better measure student achievement, and he is preparing parents for the fact that scores are going to drop as the state becomes more honest about whether students are proficient in reading and math.

Testing alone cannot improve education. But it helps to diagnose prob-

lems. Conservatives and liberals can agree on this point. The ideal scenario is that the states can come together and agree on a common set of standards for what students should be able to achieve by grade level in English and math.

For example, by the end of fourth grade, students should understand the difference between first- and third-person narration, and

by eighth grade, students should be able to interpret a scatterplot. If this idea sounds familiar — to have common college and career-ready standards and aligned testing—that’s because it already exists in the form of Common Core.

There is a lot of misinformation about Common Core. You may have heard it was created by the Obama administration. It

Federal data: As oil production soars, so do pipeline leaks The oil pipeline leak that fouled a stretch of California coastline this week reflects a troubling trend in the nation’s infrastructure: As U.S. oil production has soared, so has the number of pipeline accidents.

Since 2009, the annual number of significant accidents on oil and petroleum pipelines has shot up by almost 60 percent, roughly matching the rise in U.S. crude oil production, according to an analysis of federal data by The Associated Press.

Nearly two-thirds of the leaks during that time have been linked to corrosion or material, welding and equipment failures, problems often associated with older pipelines, although they can occur in newer ones, too. Other leaks were blamed on natural disasters or human error, such as a backhoe striking a pipeline.

Industry officials and federal regulators say they have adequate means of gauging the safety of pipelines, but the aging infrastructure is a source of lingering concern for outside experts.

Robert Bea, a professor emeritus in civil engineering at the University of California, Berkeley. “Things get older. They don’t get stronger.”

Since 1995, there have been more than 2,000 significant accidents involving pipelines carrying crude oil and refined petroleum products that have caused about $3 billion in property damage, according to data from the federal office that oversees pipeline safety, the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. That’s an average of a little over 100 per year. But after dipping to 77 in 2009, that figure has spiked to at least 121 in each of the past two years.

No cause has yet been determined for the pipeline failure northwest of Santa Barbara that spilled up to 105,000 gallons of crude oil, making it among the largest spills in the U.S. over the past two decades.

The leak covered sand and rocks with a thick, tar-like goo and forced two state beaches to close ahead of the Memorial Day weekend. About a fifth of the oil reached the Pacific Ocean. Federal regulators

on Friday barred the pipeline from reopening until a series of corrective actions are taken.

Plains All American Pipeline LP, which operates the pipeline, and its subsidiaries have reported 223 accidents along their lines since 2006. Those accidents resulted in a combined 864,300 gallons of spilled hazardous liquids, damages topping $32 million and 25 enforcement actions by federal regulators.

Corrosion was determined to be the cause in 76 of those accidents. Failures in materials, welds and other equipment were cited more than 80 times.

The company and its affiliates have had the fifth highest number of significant pipeline accidents among all of the nation’s pipeline operators since 2006. Plains All American Pipeline said Friday that it spent $300 million last year on “maintenance and integrity.”

T h e 2 -fo o t-wid e p ip e at issue in California had no previous problems and was thoroughly inspected in 2012, according to the company.

Campaign worker sends fake news release saying foe left race CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — A campaign worker for a New Hampshire House hopeful has been charged with a felony for sending out a fake news release saying the opponent had dropped out of the race.

Attorney General Joseph Foster says 28-year-old Carl Gibson of Concord was charged Friday with felony voter suppression and a misdemeanor count of distributing a false document. Gibson is scheduled to be arraigned June 22 in Concord District Court. He told the Concord Monitor this week that he “probably had one too many beers” before sending out the false email.

Gibson had been working for Democrat Maureen Mann, who ended up losing the close race in the special election. Republican opponent Yvonne Dean-Bailey won the election to represent Candia, Deerfield, Northwood and Nottingham.

And some claim that it usurps the power of the states by setting a national curriculum. In reality, the states and local school boards can still teach how they see fit.

Standards are not a curriculum, but instead help to align the states so that a high school graduate in Georgia will not find herself at a competitive disadvantage to a graduate from a different state with higher standards.

Americans have an opportunity to raise the standard of education while also holding our leaders more accountable.

We’re falling behind the rest of the world in educating our children because we’re allowing standards to match political expediency rather than college and career readiness. Common Core is the best way to achieve that goal.

You’ll need your calendar to save these dates

By Steve Wolfe

Today’s column is intended to be several “Headzups” (as I call them) of events-to-come in our fair city. Another way of putting it is Save the Date, seen most frequently these days in wedding announcements. I’m going to do this in chronological order so that it’s most clear, at least to me.

Coming up soonest is an event called “Celebrate Altrusa Park!”

It will happen on Saturday, June 6 from 10 a.m. until 1:00 p.m.

There will be hot dogs, Roswell Fire Department’s really cool combat course, RPD’s Mobile Command Center, Healthy Kids in the Park activities and lots of games and other things to do.

Oh, did I say there would be hot dogs?

Briefly, when it was determined that it was time to retire and replace the old Missouri Avenue Elementary School, a brand new, state of the art, two-story Mis-

souri Avenue school was built. It sits diagonally across Washington Avenue from the old school.

On completion of the new, the old was demolished, leaving one square block vacant. Soon, that vacant lot became a wonderful park. Several of the playground items and other features of the park can be attributed to the generosity of the ladies of Altrusa Club of Roswell! Their sizable donation and their dedication to the cause of literacy make it altogether fitting that this park is

named “Altrusa Park.”

June 16 will bring the second public meeting concerning the City Master Plan. I attended the first meeting last Tuesday evening and I am pleased that I did so. There was a good crowd, which I think is important, but it is critical that more of us as citizens participate. In my mind, one of the key comments was offered by a gentleman who believes that we have allowed our expectations for Roswell to be too low. I think he is correct. We should not accept Roswell as second best!

Every one of us as residents must step up to the plate to support a city management team which is making extraordinary strides to re-invigorate Roswell.

Please look for announcements of the Second Public Meeting on the City Master Plan. You should be there. Save the date — June 16.

Headzup Number 3 is to remind you that National Night

Out 2015 will occur on Aug.4, the first Tuesday of August 2015. This is an annual Neighborhood Watch event and last year was fabulous! It was held at the Zoo Park, a super venue for this, our ninth NNO. This year will be even better, with hot dogs, (Hey, hot dogs here too!), participation by the RFD and the RPD, some great music, and lots of other games and kids’ activities. We understand that Target Store will again be helping us and they have just been priceless in previous events. We appreciate their team members who are always in full force, and who do some great face-painting and other good stuff. We are delighted that some neighborhoods will do NNO events on their own. (Yes, Julie Morrow, I’m talking to you.)

Please let Richard and me know how we may be able to help your event.

Coming up in the fall are two more items for my Save the Date

Column. You will see much more detail as the dates get closer.

First, the Walker Aviation Museum Foundation is sponsoring “Brigadier General Kenneth N. Walker Day” on Sept. 18. Douglas Walker, son of the late general for whom Walker AFB was named, will be our special guest, and many activities are planned.

And finally, we will be conducting another Prescription Drug TakeBack on either Oct. 17 or 24. More information is to come, but please save your unwanted, unneeded, or expired prescription drugs. Put them in a safe place until then, and look for more information as October approaches.

OK, that’s it. June 6 and 16, Aug. 4, Sept. 18 and Oct. 17 and 24. Save the dates!

China’s impact looms large as US debates its own WASHINGTON (AP) — If the U.S. doesn’t write the rules of international trade, President Barack Obama warns, China will.

In fact, China is already helping write those rules, and in some ways has jumped ahead of the game.

There’s intense competition between the U.S. and China for economic influence in the world. As Obama seeks to persuade lawmakers to back his trade agenda, he has cast that competition as an economic threat.

“They’ll write those rules in a way that gives Chinese workers and Chinese businesses the upper hand, and locks American-made goods out,” the president said in Oregon this month.

As a result, China’s impact, both current and potential, is partly shaping the U.S. debate over whether Congress should grant Obama greater trade-negotiation authority. Under such authority, lawmakers could still set parameters for trade deals, but once an agreement was negotiated they could only approve or reject it, not change it.

Obama is seeking the “fast-track” authority to complete a Trans-Pacific trade deal with 11 other countries along the Pacific rim, many of whom are also negotiating separate trade pacts with China.

China’s ample reach

The U.S. is the largest economy seeking to conclude the Trans-Pacific trade deal. China is the largest economy negotiating the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership, 16 countries that include the 10 members of

the Association of Southeast Asian Nations as well as Australia, India, Japan, South Korea and New Zealand.

There is significant overlap. Countries involved in both negotiations include Brunei, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

China, under President Xi Jinping, is also starting an Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank and has enlisted 57 countries to sign up. Such a venture is designed to broaden China’s practice of using its state-owned companies and its workers on foreign capital projects.

The U.S. and Japan, leading shareholders of the World Bank and Asian Development Bank, have expressed concern over the new bank’s governance standards and the types of projects it might finance.

“They may be very good for the leaders of some countries and contractors but may not be good for the actual people who live there,” Obama said last month.

Still, Britain, France and Germany have broken with Washington and are seeking membership.

As a result, the Trans-Pacific trade deal Obama seeks would do less to thwart China than to help the U.S. “rebalance” toward Asia and gain a foothold in a major world market.

“The U.S. has to be in the game itself,” Evan A. Feigenbaum, a former deputy assistant secretary of state for South Asia, said at a recent conference on U.S.-China economic relations. “In the full sweep and scope of Asia institu-

tions, agreements, functional areas, clearly the United States, if it’s going to adapt and compete, has to compete with something.”

How tough on labor rights

When Obama says the U.S. needs to “write the rules for trade” he is addressing a difference between the trade deals that China is negotiating and those that the U.S. is hoping to complete. The Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership is much like a traditional free trade agreement that simply seeks to lower tariffs and increase access to markets.

The Trans-Pacific Agreement, however, also aims to set labor and environmental standards for its participants. Presumably, that would enhance U.S. competitiveness in its exports.

The debate in the United States centers on how enforceable those standards would be. The North American Free Trade Agreement negotiated by President Bill Clinton had side agreements on labor and the environment that were not enforceable. More recent deals, many with Latin American countries, have built enforcement into the agreements.

monitoring. It found that of five labor complaints submitted to the Department of Labor since 2008, only one had been closed.

“The history of these agreements betrays a harsh truth: that the actual enforcement of labor provisions of past U.S. FTAs lags far behind the promises,” concluded a report this week by Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., a vocal critic of Obama’s trade efforts.

Administration officials concede past problems in addressing claims. They say some delays are due to a lack of resources and others are the result of labor standards that are unclear or too weak to make a strong case. They say the Trans-Pacific deal would reflect those lessons.

Playing with currency

U.S. administrations have long complained

that China subsidizes its exports by keeping its currency values artificially low. And while China is not a participant in the Trans-Pacific agreement, critics and even some supporters of the deal believe it should include measures that would crack down on nations that manipulate currency.

“Past administrations have had a number of tools at their disposal, but they’ve sat in a drawer gathering dust,” Sen. Chuck Schumer, the New York Democrat who succeeded in placing currency valuation restrictions in related trade legislation, said last week.

But administration officials say any provision that would punish countries deemed to be purposefully undervaluing their currency to gain a trade advantage would prompt retaliation and lead to a trade war. The

administration on Tuesday said that if the currency manipulation restrictions are placed directly in the “fast track” legislation, Obama will veto it.

“There was a time when China was pretty egregious about this,” Obama said during a trade pitch at Nike headquarters in Oregon last month. “And we pushed back hard, and China moved. ... That’s not an argument against this trade agreement.”

Still, Jared Bernstein, who served as an economist for Vice President Joe Biden, believes the trade agreement should contain currency enforcement provisions.

He said in an email: “One reason for our persistent trade deficits is that some of our trading partners have managed their currency to subsidize their exports to us and tax ours to them.”

Results have been mixed

A Government Accountability Office report last year found that while some countries have taken steps to strengthen labor rights, enforcement has been limited and U.S. agencies have been inconsistent in

‘Arabian Nights’ canine named Cannes’ top dog CANNES, France (AP) — A small white dog named Lucky has taken the award for Cannes’ best performance on four legs.

The maltipoo — a cross between a Maltese terrier and a poodle — was awarded the Palme Dog at the film festival on Friday for a sparky performance as Dixie the dog in Miguel Gomes’ “Arabian Nights.”

The Portuguese director’s three-part film is a six-hour story set in present-day Portugal but inspired by Middle Eastern classic “The 1,001 Nights.”

Runner-up for the Palme Dog was Bob, the canine companion — and brother — of Colin Farrell’s character in Yorgos Lanthimos’ “The Lobster,” a surreal story in which people who can’t find mates are turned into animals.

An unofficial part of the Cannes Film Festival, the Palm Dog was founded in 2001 and is judged by a panel of film critics.

Its name is a play on Cannes’ top film prize, the Palme d’Or.

Colombia rebels cancel cease-fire after army raid BOGOTA, Colombia (AP) — Colombia’s largest rebel group on Friday called off a unilateral cease-fire in reaction to a military raid on a guerrilla camp that killed 26 of its fighters, further straining negotiations to end the country’s half-century-old conflict.

The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia said in a statement Friday that it hadn’t wanted to lift the fivemonth-old truce aimed at facilitating the peace talks, but that the constant pursuit of its fighters by the military made it necessary.

The Thursday attack on the guerrilla camp in Cauca province, which President Juan Manuel Santos called a major blow against the FARC, appears to have been in retaliation for the rebels’ own stealth raid last month, also in Cauca, on an army patrol. Ten soldiers were killed in that attack, which

Hike It & Spike It kicks off successfully

By Jeff Jackson Record Sports Writer

This year’s Hike It & Spike It event through the opening half-day has been a well-executed game plan with no fumbles, interceptions or deflated footballs, one co-organizer said.

“It’s been great, one of the smoothest tournaments we’ve ever had,” Cla Avery said Saturday afternoon.

“And all the credit goes to the 200 event staffers, from registration to the T-shirt handout people to the trash staff, our restrooms, our officials, the parking staff.

We have around 70 people to handle the parking alone.”

In addition to all the people who make the four-onfour flag-football tournament a success, Avery also thanked higher powers for cooperative weather, unlike last year when the city record 4.39 inches of rain on May 24.

“We’re very blessed to have missed (Friday) night’s forecasted storm. It appears we’re going to have a beautiful weekend weather-wise,” Avery said.

The city of Roswell departments for Parks and Recreation, Fire, Police and Sanitation deserve gratitude, Avery said. Parks and Recreation and Sanitation

prepared the grounds and facilities at Cielo Grande Park for the football, while Police provide security and Fire medical treatment.

The Parks department also brought in bleachers, storage units and installed a repeating tower that facilitated walkie-talkie communication for the Hike It & Spike It staff, Avery said.

“We appreciate all they do on our behalf,” he said.

Busy but not overwhelmed were the 12-member MASH units run jointly by Eastern New Mexico Medical Center and the Roswell Fire Department, which tended to the usual twisted ankles and broken bones. As of 2 p.m. Saturday, there were no transports to the hospital.

“We’ve had a few injuries.

We’re a basic first-aid tent,” said medical coordinator Jamie Luna.

Luna reported a ruptured knee ligament, a broken collarbone and dislocated fingers among the treatments administered by on-site doctors and nurses.

“Our MASH unit is just amazing,” Avery said.

The medical staff at the tournament also is taking donations, which will be forwarded to a youth football league in Roswell, Avery added.

Today’s play begins at 8 a.m., and the earliest final is scheduled for 1:30 p.m.

In the Show Me The Money

category, the first-place team will win $10,000, the second-place team $3,000 and the third-place team

$2,000. In addition, one team in each of the 41 divisions will earn a Character Counts! award.

Upsets aplenty on Day 1 of Hike It and Spike It’s ‘Show me the money’ division

By Karen Boehler Record Correspondent

The 20th anniversary of Roswell Hike It and Spike It 4-on-4 flag football tournament is off to a rousing start, with strong competition throughout and some major upsets in the Show Me the Money bracket.

“This has been the most amazing Saturday we’ve ever had in 20 years of Roswell Hike It and Spike It charity flag football tournament,” said tournament organizer Cla Avery. “We have 580 teams from all over the country, and that includes little kids, old men and of course the very elite teams from around the world.”

And it’s in that elite field that the upsets were huge.

“Our first and second place teams from last year have been upset,” Avery said. “Both of them are in the position where they have to come back through the loser’s bracket to get back to the money.”

One of the teams doing the upsetting was a Ros-

Goddard High and NMMI Bronco players (Clarence Cheadle, Kevin Kelly, David Anaya, Desmond

Anaya, Jeremy Johnson, Manny Dominguez, Luis Herrera and captain Josh Williams) started the day

with a 22-20 play-in victory over Texas squad Free Agents. That put them up against Dallas Blackout,

last year’s championship team and a perennial top pick.

And they pulled off a 31-28 victory over the defending champion, something that made quarterback Clarence Cheadle very happy.

“We’ve been playing in a bunch of tournaments together and we just came together this morning,” he said. “We’ve been working on certain plays and they’ve been working. And our defense stepped up big time.”

The other upset was Goose Crew of Miami, Fla., which lost its opening game to Amarillo’s Rampage, sending it into the loser’s bracket.

“We came out flat,” said Jorge Caspudo. “We made mistakes. The other team played very well, capitalized on our mistakes and we couldn’t come back and win.”

By the end of Saturday’s play, both upset teams were still in the running,

Playaz also will have to battle back, as they fell 34-18 to Los Angeles’ Dream Team in their third game of the day “We were flat,” said team captain Williams, who, because of a broken arm, had to cheer his team on from the sidelines. “I think the hype of the Blackout game, we took too much from it, instead of just coming out and doing what we needed to do. And I think it showed. The scoreboard don’t lie.”

Still, everyone is still thinking positive.

“We’re still in it, and we’ll represent Roswell,” Williams said. “That’s what we came out to do. We’re trying to make a name for ourselves, so we’re coming out here to represent Roswell and try to do big things for it. We’ve got

Curry, Golden State obliterate Houston 115-80 to take 3-0 lead HOUSTON (AP) — Stephen Curry scored 40 points and the Golden State Warriors made it look easy against Houston, beating the Rockets 115-80 on Saturday night to take a 3-0 lead in the Western Conference finals.

The Warriors won the first two games by just five points combined. There would be no such drama in this one, with Curry leading them to a 26-point advantage in the second quarter.

Now the baby-faced MVP has Golden State just one victory away from its first trip to the NBA Finals since 1975. Game 4 is Monday night in Houston.

Curry was unstoppable, making seven 3-pointers to break the NBA record for most 3s in the playoffs in a season with 64.

MVP runner-up James Harden finished with 17 points behind 10-of-11 free-throw shooting, but made just 3 of 16 shots as the Rockets dropped three straight for the first time all season. Dwight Howard, who played despite a knee injury suffered in Game 1, had 14 points and 14 rebounds.

Draymond Green and Klay Thompson added 17 points apiece for the Warriors.

Curry had 37 points after three quarters and went to the bench for good with about 5 1/2 minutes remaining after his seventh 3-pointer made it 103-73. He also had seven rebounds and five assists.

After coach Steve Kerr complained about turnovers in the last game, the Warriors had just one before halftime to help them run away with this one early.

Reds manager Bryan Price ejected even before game begins

CLEVELAND (AP) — Cincinnati Reds manager Bryan Price was ejected Saturday before the game against Cleveland began.

Price was thrown out by crew chief Jim Reynolds after the lineup cards were exchanged. The two had a lengthy heated argument that continued as the Indians

players took the field. Reynolds then threw out Price.

The discussion continued before Price finally went to the dugout and returned to the clubhouse. It’s unclear what led to the argument, although several Reds players were unhappy with plate umpire Manny Gonzalez’s strike zone Friday night.

Kevin Na regains sole lead at Colonial

Roswell Daily Record

FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — The last time Kevin Na took the lead into the final round of a tournament, he faltered badly.

For Ian Poulter, though he laughs about it, there is that anonymous survey of PGA Tour players done by Sports Illustrated where he and Rickie Fowler tied as the most overrated player on tour.

Na and Poulter both have a chance to change perceptions at Colonial.

With a birdie on the 17th hole Saturday, after the pair played from almost the same spot, Na regained the outright lead for a one-stroke advantage over Poulter going into the

final round at a very damp Hogan’s Alley.

“When it comes to crunch time, you’ve got to trust your stroke and just stay in the moment,” Na said when asked about a chance for his second PGA Tour victory Sunday.

At The Players Championship three years ago, Na led after 54 holes before closing with a 76. He shared the second-round leading there this month before Fowler’s victory that Poulter eluded to this week.

“Rickie went out there and obviously made amends,” Poulter said, referring to the SI survey.

Na shot a 1-under 69 on Saturday, a round

that included a couple of bogeys, to reach 11-under 199. Poulter had a 68.

Poulter made a 30-foot birdie putt on No. 7 for a share of the lead at 10 under. He was still part of the lead after a sand save at No. 9, where he blasted to 6 feet from a bunker to save par.

But he dropped out of a lead after starting the back nine with a four-putt double bogey from 16 feet at No. 10. A 3-footer on his third putt doing a U-turn around the cup without going in, though he got one of those strokes back with a 6-foot birdie putt at the 635-yard 11th.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — They call the Indianapolis 500 “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” for its high speeds, rich history, enormous crowd and the takeyour-breath-away competition.

This year, IndyCar is hoping the 99th running of the event won’t be a spectacle because of a serious on-track incident.

Concern hangs over Indianapolis Motor Speedway after the cars of Helio Castroneves, Josef Newgarden and Ed Carpenter all went airborne during practice sessions in the 10 days leading up to Sunday’s race.

All three drivers walked away unscathed, but IndyCar officials scrambled on qualifying day for a solution.

All three drivers were driving Chevrolets, and the manufacturer worked with the series on adjustments to the bodywork of the cars, plus a reduction in horsepower before qualifying.

One day later, James Hinchcliffe suffered a life-threatening injury when he slammed into the turn three wall at more than 220 mph and a broken piece of his suspension pierced his left thigh. Hinchcliffe’s accident was unrelated to the three cars that had gone airborne, but one of IndyCar’s most popular drivers was rushed into surgery in critical condition and will miss Sunday’s race.

The four wrecks have many wondering if Sunday will see a safe race.

“This will never be a safe race — it’s an open wheel car going 230 mph over three and a half hours trying to win,” said Rahal Lanigan Letterman Racing driver Oriol Servia. “Safe is not really what defines it.

It will never be. But I think it could be safer than what we’ll do Sunday.”

IndyCar officials aren’t certain what caused the three cars to lift off the track following mild crashes. Although some wanted to point to the new body kits Chevy and Honda are

allowed to use this season, most drivers doubted the manufacturers were to blame.

And some have even grumbled that the wrecks cast an unfair pall over the race and created an unnecessary hysteria.

“I just think we need to be careful not to lose our heritage and the roots of what we do,” said KV Racing driver Sebastien Bourdais, who praised the safety efforts as long as it didn’t destroy “the purpose and the reason of why we do things we do and how we do it.”

“People make mistakes, whether it is human mistakes, mechanical mistakes, it is part of what we do,” he said. “That needs to be respected because when you travel at the speeds we travel, things can go bad. When it goes bad, it shouldn’t be, ‘Oh my God, what just happened?’ What happened is what we do is dangerous.”

That sentiment is shared by most in Sunday’s field.

Race car drivers have always accepted that danger, death and disability are part of the profession, and most are able to overlook it when they pull on their helmet and climb into the car.

Asked if he’s expecting a “safe race” on Sunday, pole-sitter Scott Dixon was candid.

“I hope so, that’s all you can do,” said the driver from New Zealand. “We’ve always been at these speeds, or close to them, and accidents are going to happen. You just hope everyone will be safe.”

The only thing Dixon was certain of for Sunday is that the race should be a thriller for drivers and fans.

The last few faces have all featured gripping battles for the checkered flag.

Even after the wrecks and Hinchcliffe’s hospitalization, the drivers staged a pair of intense practice sessions that featured slicing and dicing and multiple lead changes.

“I think everybody will be

on the edge of their seats,” Dixon said. “The race will be very good.”

It could also be dominated by Chevrolet drivers, particularly those from Team Penske and Chip Ganassi Racing.

Both organizations have been the class of the field all month and have nine cars entered in all — including the first five drivers on the starting grid.

Roger Penske, with Will Power, Simon Pagenaud and former winners Helio Castroneves and Juan Pablo Montoya, will be seeking his 16th Indianapolis 500. Ganassi will be trying to win his fifth on his 57th birthday with Dixon, Tony Kanaan, Charlie Kimball, Sage Karam and Sebastian Saavedra.

Clydia Lou Gant, 77, passed away on May 21, 2015, in Roswell, NM. She was born on May 31, 1937, in Winters, TX, to Leonard McDonald and Rosemary Blount.

She was married to Charles Gant for 39 years, until his passing in 1998.

Clydia worked at Broadmoor Drug in Hobbs for 15 years, before she became a Respiratory Therapist, in the emergency room at the Hobbs hospital, where she also worked 15 years. Her family meant everything to her, including the love she had for her grandchildren.

Everyone that knew Clydia, loved her for who she was.

Preceding Clydia in death was her husband, Charles Ivy Gant.

Survivors include her sons, Kirt Gant and wife Connie, of Hobbs, NM; Zane Michael Gant and wife Vicky, of Roswell, NM; grandsons, Brandon Gant, of Albuquerque, NM; and Zachary Ivy Gant, of Roswell, NM; granddaughters, Misty Wooddell and husband James, of Roswell, NM; and Zana Michelle Gant, of CA.

Bates Boles, a longtime resident of Houston, passed away at the age of 93 on May 14, 2015, at the Village of Gleannloch Farms. The services will be held at 2 p.m. on Saturday, May 16, in the chapel of Klein Funeral Home on Champion Forest with the Rev. David Schultz officiating. Burial will be at South Heights Cemetery in Sapulpa, Oklahoma.

Bates was born June 1, 1921, the tenth child of Mary Etta and David Smith Boles of Devol, Oklahoma. His childhood was spent in a farm community near Cookietown, Oklahoma. Bates graduated from Oklahoma Agricultural and Mechanical College (Oklahoma State University) (1947). Boles became a pilot and joined the Army Air Corp. During World War II, he became a bombardier, (known as BB) on the crew of the “Stumpy Joe.” On their second mission, all eleven men parachuted to safety in Yugoslavia and survived behind enemy lines for two months with the help of partisans and the Russian Army.

They were all returned safely to their headquarters in Bari, Italy. After the war, Bates returned to Oklahoma. In later years, the “Stumpy Joe” crew enjoyed many reunions.

In June 1947, Boles began a thirty-six year career with Gulf Oil Corporation. Serving in field office management, his career took him and his family from Oklahoma to New Mexico to Texas to Louisiana. Late in his career Bates was often in Washington, DC, as he served as the Manager of Government Compliance for Gulf Oil. Bates and Helen Rae Payne were married in

WASHINGTON (AP) — Congress has sent President Barack Obama a bill to keep highway and transit aid flowing to states for another two months and prevent shutdown of summer construction projects.

The Senate approved the bill by voice vote early Saturday; the measure passed the House earlier in the week.

Authority to spend money from the federal Highway Trust Fund, which finances most aid to states, was due to expire May 31.

It’s the 33rd time in more than six years that Congress has resorted to a temporary patch to keep transportation programs going, 12 bills specific to highway and transit

programs and 21 other more general measures designed to keep the Transportation Department and other government agencies open. The repeated fixes are a reflection of lawmakers’ continuing lack of consensus on how to solve the nation’s infrastructure financing woes.

While Obama is expected to sign the measure, White House spokesman Josh Earnest urged lawmakers to use the two months to negotiate a long-term bill “After all, you hear regularly from Republicans about the ... economic benefits of certainty,” Earnest said. “And in this case, the economic benefits of certainty in terms of our infrastructure investments would

Retirement began in 1983 with Bates and Helen traveling the world, attending military reunions, growing tomatoes and hitting the garage sales. Bates had a passion for playing dominoes and cards, listening to country music, and following sports, especially the Oklahoma State Aggies.

Bates Boles is survived by his children, Daniel Boles (June) of Belen, New Mexico; and Linda Edens (Dennis) of Spring, Texas. Three grandchildren: James Edens (Laura Rebecca) of Wrangell, Alaska; Jacoby Boles of Sidney, Nebraska; and Laura Edens of Houston, Texas.

Four great grandchildren: Ander, Clara, Everett, and Lillian of Wrangell, Alaska.

He is preceded in death by his wife, Helen; his parents; and his nine siblings.

Maxine Morrison Machen

Donald E. Quesenberry, 86, passed away on May 22, 2015, in Roswell, NM. He was born on January 26, 1929, in Moore, OK, to Lloyd Quesenberry and Maye Whisinant.

After serving in the Air Force for four years, Donald began his career as the owner of Big O Tires in Roswell and Clovis, until he retired in the early 1990s.

Donald would meet his special friend, Les Walker, every afternoon at Denny’s for coffee and conversation.

They were friends for more than 40 years. Donald, a very loving person, was also a member of the Optimist Club.

Preceding Donald in death were his first wife, Mable Quesenberry; second wife, Ruth Quesenberry; his parents; brother, Rus-

A Memorial Service for Maxine Morrison Machen will be held on Tuesday, May 26, 2015, at 9:30 a.m. at Peachtree Village, 1301 W. Country Club Rd., Roswell, NM, to be officiated by her pastor, Bro. Richard Grisham. A loving mother, grandmother and good friend, Maxine passed from this life into the arms of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on April 25, 2015, at the age of 92. A private graveside service was held April 29, 2015.

The first child of Harvey L. Roush and Bernice Eaton Roush, Maxine was born on January 30, 1923, in Oakland, CA, as she loved to relate, in a hospital overlooking an artichoke patch. She grew up in Oakland with her younger sister, Nadine. She spent seven years in and out of the Shriner’s Orthopedic Children’s Hospital in San Francisco, and often shared

The uncertainty over whether federal aid will be forthcoming has cause several states to cancel or delay tens of millions of dollars in construction projects The trust fund relies on revenue from the federal 18.4-cents-a-gallon gasoline and the 24.4-cents-a-gallon diesel taxes, but fuel taxes haven’t been increased since 1993. Meanwhile, construction costs have risen and the money the taxes bring in isn’t enough to cover transportation spending. Most lawmakers, however, are reluctant to raise the gas tax, seeing that as unpopular with voters.

Unable to find a politically acceptable solution, Congress has kept the trust fund teetering on the edge of insolvency since 2008. The extension passed by Congress would expire July 31, when many lawmakers say they expect to go through the same exercise again.

Several top House and Senate Republicans have indicated they hope to find enough money to put an end to the temporary patches as part of a larger effort to rewrite tax laws. But no bill has yet been introduced and broad tax legislation is notoriously difficult to pass even without the complication of finding a transportation spending solution.

her gratitude for the great love and compassion she experienced there. In June of 1941 Maxine graduated from Oakland Technical High School and helped in the war effort through her work at Marchant’s Calculator Company.

Maxine fell in love with John Foch (J.F. - Jeff) Morrison, her sailor boy, at the beginning of WWII. After being separated 19 long months, they married during his shore leave in June of 1943, then were again separated for almost as many more. Becoming very sick during her mid20s, Maxine and Jeff moved to Phoenix, AZ where she healed by basking in the sunshine and solitude of an orange grove and eating her mother-in-law’s good cooking. She expressed her thankfulness for this illness as both she and her husband came to know Jesus Christ as their Savior during this time. They later moved to Brownwood, Texas, where Jeff earned a ministerial degree at Howard Payne College and Maxine became a mother. Two daughters were born to the Morrison clan in Texas: Lanice and Tressa. Finally settling in Hobbs, NM, they attended Taylor Memorial Baptist Church, where Maxine taught Sunbeams, a children’s ministry, as her children grew up, as well as working for Lea General Hospital, J.C. Penney’s and the State of New Mexico’s Health Department.

The family moved to Roswell in 1967 where they joined South Manor Baptist Church and later First Baptist Church. After 32 years in a loving marriage with Maxine, Jeff passed away in 1975 following a long illness.

Maxine spent 25 years as a social worker with the State of New Mexico’s Children’s Medical Services here in Roswell. Assisting families with their sick children was her calling, not just a job. Maxine did everything possible to help these children, just as if they were her own. Many lasting friendships were forged during this time.

She taught adult Sunday school at First Baptist Church here in Roswell for many years. Maxine met Harry Machen when he became the substitute teacher for her Sunday school class. Several years later, after the death of his wife Pat, Maxine and Harry fell in love, marrying on August 8, 2001. During their 12 year marriage, Maxine was blessed by inheriting a second family, Harry’s two sons and two daughters, their children and grandchildren. Harry passed away August 1.

2013.

Maxine loved and served the Lord Jesus and her heart’s desire was to know Him better, spending many hours praying, and reading and studying her Bible. A great mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and true friend, she had a servant’s heart and loved doing for others and spending time with her family and friends. She was a hard worker and never sought the limelight. She loved singing and music of most every kind, finding time to take piano lessons after she retired. She loved writing short stories and writing down her thoughts, flowers and gardening, playing dominoes and card games with friends, crocheting baby blankets and knitting dishcloths for her friends, and greatly enjoyed time spent fishing.

Maxine is survived by and will be greatly missed by her family: Lanice White, her husband Gary White, of Roswell, and their daughter, Terry Kay Gilbert, her husband, Brian Gilbert, and their four children: Holly, Christine, Chase and Spencer of Las Cruces, NM; and Tressa Caddell, her husband, Joe Caddell, and son, Neil and his wife, Yvette, all of San Antonio, TX; Harry’s children: Don Machen, his late wife, Carol, and their five children, of Metamora, Illinois; Chris Wilkes and her husband, Larry, and their five children, of Coffeyvilley, KS; Russ Machen and his wife, Ann, and their two children, of Cortez, CO; and Jane Machen of Hudson Falls, NY. Our mother, Maxine, truly embodies the truth of Provers 31:28 which says: “Her children will rise up and call her blessed.” We have truly been blessed by having Maxine as our mother.

We, her family, wish to thank the staff of Peachtree Village where Maxine lived for the last 10 years, for their love and many kindness, as well as the nurses, volunteers and chaplain of Gentiva Hospice for the wonderful, kind and loving support extended to Maxine and to her children during her illness.

Donation remembrances in Maxine’s honor may be made to Ezra International, P.O. Box 120926, Clermont, FL 34712-0926, ezrainternational.org, or to a charity of your choice.

this year proposed spending $478 billion over six years on transportation, a 45 percent increase over current spending levels. The administration proposes to make up the gap between fuel tax revenue and spending with a one-time 14 percent tax on the estimated $2 trillion in untaxed earnings that U.S. companies have accumulated and parked overseas. The tax is opposed by industry. House lawmakers introduce the bill this week, but the measure has been ignored by the GOP, which controls Congress.

There is no shortage of

other proposals, including some with bipartisan support.

Reps. Reid Ribble, R-Wis., Jim Renacci, R-Ohio, and Bill Pascrell, D-N.J., have introduced a bill that would index fuel taxes so that they rise with inflation and set up a bipartisan commission to find a long-term solution. Rep. John Delaney, D-Md., has also proposed taxing U.S. companies’ foreign earnings, but at a lower, 8.75 percent rate, to pay for transportation programs over six years. It would also create a $50 billion fund to leverage private financing for infrastructure projects.

US: Myanmar should share responsibility for Rohingya crisis YANGON, Myanmar (AP) — Navy ships from two countries scoured Southeast Asian waters Friday for boats believed to be carrying thousands of migrants with little food or water, and a top U.S. diplomat said Myanmar needs to shoulder some responsibility for the crisis. That’s something it has been reluctant to do.

U.S. Deputy Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said Rohingya Muslims fleeing the predominantly Buddhist nation are risking perilous journeys and putting their lives in the hands of human traffickers because “they are in despair and don’t see a future” at home.

They have been denied citizenship and chased off their own land. They have little access to education or adequate medical care and cannot move around freely.

“The root of the problem for those leaving Myanmar is the political and social situation on the ground,” Blinken told reporters at a news conference in Yangon wrapping up his Southeast Asia tour.

“Even as we tackle the

immediate humanitarian emergency — that is literally to save and rescue people, bring them back to land, get them the care that they need and treat them appropriately — we also have to get at the underlying conditions.”

He said he made that point when he met with President Thein Sein, the army commander-in-chief and other top officials.

Southeast Asia is grappling with a humanitarian crisis of monumental proportions.

Fearing arrests after a crackdown on human trafficking networks in the region, captains earlier this month started abandoning boats that were packed with Rohingya Muslims fleeing persecution and Bangladeshis escaping poverty.

More than 3,600 migrants have washed ashore in Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand since May 10, and thousands more are believed to be trapped at sea. The United Nations has warned that time is running out to save them.

Governments have been reluctant to help, worried that accepting even a few refugees would open the floodgates for more. In recent days, several navies pushed back boats packed with desperate and starving men, women and children.

The first breakthrough came Wednesday, when Indonesia and Malaysia said they were willing to shelter new arrivals as long as the international community promised to help resettle them to third countries within a year.

And in the first official rescue operation, four Malaysian navy ships were searching for boats on Friday, said navy chief Abdul Aziz Jaafar. He said three helicopters and three other ships were on standby.

Myanmar’s navy found two fishing trawlers filled with 208 men during a patrol off Rakhine state, the main point of departure for fleeing Rohingya.

Zaw Htay, director of the presidential office, said Friday the men were identified as Bangladeshi and would be sent to the neighboring

Rohingya migrants sleep under a tent at a temporary shelter in Bayeun, Aceh province, Indonesia Friday. In the past three weeks, thousands of refugees and migrants have washed ashore in Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand, according to the International Organization for Migration. country.

Rohingya, numbering at around 1.3 million, have been identified by the United Nations as one of the most persecuted minorities in the world.

After Myanmar moved from dictatorship toward democracy in 2011, newfound freedoms of expression gave voice to Buddhist

extremists who spewed hatred against the religious minority and said Muslims were taking over the country. Attacks that followed left up to 280 people dead.

Another 140,000 Rohingya were driven from their homes and are now living under apartheid-like conditions in crowded displacement camps.

The government refuses to recognize them, regarding them as illegal migrants from Bangladesh, even though many have lived in Myanmar for generations.

It has expressed skepticism that those fleeing are actually from Myanmar and insists it is not to blame for the current crisis.

DENVER (AP) — Students in 11 states and the District of Columbia will spend less time next year taking tests based on the Common Core standards, a decision made in response to widespread opposition to testing requirements.

The decision to reduce testing time by about 90 minutes was made by the states and the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for Colleges and Career, or PARCC. The PARCC tests are administered to students in grades three to eight and once in high school. As a result of the decision, the math and English exams will only be given once a year, instead of twice.

The 11 states involved are Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Mississippi, New Jersey, New Mexico, Ohio and Rhode Island.

“We’ve listened to the voices of all stakeholders — educators, parents, and students — and are using the lessons learned,” New Mexico Education Secretary Hanna Skandera said in a statement.

The PARCC tests took effect this year and sparked a round of intense opposition from teachers, parents and students who said test-

ing requirements take away from classroom instruction and put undue pressure on kids. Parents in pockets of the country opted their children out of test taking in PARCC states and elsewhere.

Julia Sass Rubin, the mother of a seventh-grader in New Jersey and a founder of Save Our Schools New Jersey, a group that is critical of the test, said the reduced time is a good first step. She was among thousands of New Jersey parents who boycotted the tests.

“It shows that the parents were sufficiently communicative,” she said. “It’s very good that they’re listening.”

But she said cutting the test back to once a year does not address all the lost instructional time and overarching concerns about “narrowing of the curriculum and teaching to the test.”

Mike Wetzel, spokesman for the Colorado Education Association, the state’s largest teachers’ union, welcomed the decision.

“But as a country, we still over-test and we want to see some significant changes in Washington next year,” he said.

Wetzel was referring to the congressional debate

to overhaul the No Child Left Behind education law, which has annual testing requirements.

Colorado is among the states that didn’t wait for PARCC to reduce exam time. On the same day the PARCC reduction was made, Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper signed into law a reduction in testing before third grade and later in high school. Similar testing reductions have been passed in many states affiliated with the Common Core standards, which spell out what skills students should be able to master at each grade level.

“There needs to be some sort of evaluation and testing, but we need to allow local districts to use what works for them,” said Colorado state Sen. Jerry Sonnenberg, a rancher who made headlines earlier this year for taking a PARCC test and failing it. Sonnenberg got the answers right, but didn’t show his work.

“There’s a lot of problems with these tests and it’s good they’re reducing them, but we have more to look at,” Sonnenberg said.

PARCC is one of two exams developed by groups of states and tied to the Common Core standards.

The other is Smarter Balanced.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — In the Clinton administration’s final months, then-first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton took an active role in White House efforts to give tax breaks to private foundations and wealthy charity donors at the same time that the William J. Clinton Foundation was soliciting donations for her husband’s presidential library, Clinton-era documents show.

Memos archived in the Clinton Library show that Hillary Clinton endorsed the administration’s legislative push for the tax reductions and unveiled the proposals to influential nonprofit representatives during a conference call in January 2000, three months after she and President Bill Clinton hosted charity leaders for a conference on philanthropy at the White House.

The blurred lines between the tax reductions proposed by the Clinton administration in 2000 and the Clinton Library’s fundraising were an early foreshadowing of the potential

ethics concerns that have flared around the Clintons’ courting of corporate and foreign donors for their family charity as she launched her campaign for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination.

White House documents reviewed by The Associated Press show Hillary and Bill Clinton kept close tabs on the development of proposed tax breaks to reduce and simplify an excise tax on private foundations’ investments and allow more deductions for charitable donations of appreciated property to wealthy donors. An interagency task force set up by Bill Clinton designed those tax breaks along with a provision to offer deductions to middle-class taxpayers who did not itemize their returns. Federal officials estimated the full plan would cost the U.S. government $14 billion in lost tax payments over a decade.

In a January 2000 memo to Hillary Clinton from senior aides, plans for a “philanthropy tax initiative roll-out” showed her

scrawled approval, “HRC” and “OK.” The document, marked with the archive stamp “HRC handwriting,” indicated her endorsement of the tax package.

The Clinton White House included the proposed tax breaks in its final budget in February 2000, but they did not survive the Republican-led Congress.

“Without your leadership, none of these proposals would have been included in the tax package,” three aides wrote to Hillary Clinton in the memo, days before she led a private conference call outlining the plan to private foundation and nonprofit leaders.

Federal law does not prevent fundraising by a presidential library during a president’s term. While most modern-day presidents have held off until the end of their term, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush allowed supporters to solicit donations while they were still in office, and President Barack Obama is now doing the same.

Jeb Bush shifts style, critiques States move to reduce time spent brother’s budget management on Common Core-based exam

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Only a few days after saying he wouldn’t “go out of my way” to point out what he saw as mistakes made by his brother, Jeb Bush did just that Thursday, criticizing former President George W. Bush’s record on the federal budget.

“I think in Washington during my brother’s time, Republicans spent too much money. I think he could have used the veto power,” Bush said toward the end of a twoday campaign swing through New Hampshire.

“He could have brought budget discipline to Washington, D.C.” The remark, made when Bush was asked to distinguish himself from his brother, came during a shift in campaign style for the former Florida governor, who — after months of relentlessly raising money to support his likely run for president in 2016, and unquestionably his roughest week in politics this year — is spending more time talking about himself.

While that includes telling stories about meeting his wife as a foreign exchange student in Mexico, and his record while serving two terms as Florida governor, they are stories that aren’t all that new. The criticism of his brother’s time as president is.

“I’m blessed to be a member of the Bush family, but I also have lived my own life,” Bush said Thursday.

Although Bush said earlier in the week that “the ship is stable,” the shift in approach is an acknowledgement of what may be his biggest challenge in the 2016 presidential primaries. While most voters can’t help but know Bush’s name, thanks to his father’s and brother’s presidencies, they don’t yet know much about him.

“I didn’t know what to expect,” said Peter Rice, a retired Marine from Portsmouth, who attended a business round table with Bush on Wednesday. “I think he has more to offer the Oval Office than his brother did. And he does not come off as elitist, as his father sometimes did.”

How Bush believes he differs from his father and brother led off his appearance before

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush answers questions as he speaks to a morning crowd at the Draft restaurant, Thursday, in Concord, N.H. roughly 50 small business owners in Concord the next day.

“Apparently there’s a little confusion that all family members are supposed to be clones of one another,” Bush said.

That discussion point has become all the more important for the younger brother of former President George W. Bush and son of former President George Bush, more so since he struggled last week to answer questions about the 2003 war in Iraq — a nation both his father and brother invaded while commander in chief.

It was a week he ended by telling reporters he wouldn’t “go out of my way” to point out what he saw as mistakes by either former Bush president. “It’s just not going to happen,” he said. Yet when asked to distinguish himself from his brother on Thursday, Bush did so with the critique of his older brother’s fiscal record.

Since expressing interest in running for president in 2016 four months ago, Bush has spent much of his time speaking to private fundraisers aimed at fueling the super PAC that’s expected to advocate for his candidacy once he enters the race later this summer.

The mission now is to combat the appearance of Bush’s imminent campaign as a foregone conclusion, aides said.

That’s a real concern for Bush, said Tom Rath, a New Hampshire Republican who supported George W. Bush in 2000 and advised 2012 nominee Mitt Romney.

“The name is known so well-known and comes with the perception of a front-runner,” Rath said.

“That can be off-putting

in New Hampshire. It’s a problem they are going to continue to have.”

And so in the past week, Bush has moved to spending more time at events with politically influential audiences, such as small groups of Republican National Committee members at a party meeting in Arizona, and GOP officials and groups in Iowa, home of the leadoff caucuses.

“Few Iowans have really been exposed to his record as governor of Florida, which includes a number of things conservative voters would appreciate,” said Craig Robinson, an Iowa Republican who called Bush’s description of reducing the size of the state’s payroll and launching a comprehensive school-choice program eye-opening.

“There is a misperception that Governor Bush is a national figure who has spent lots of time with the political class in Washington,” said Bush spokesman Tim Miller.

“He’s been focused on Florida or the private sector his whole career.”

Beyond the biography and the effort to set himself apart from family members who have already lived in the White House, Bush said the talk of his wife and grandchildren — what Bush described as showing his “heart” — has a tactical payoff.

“The simple fact is you’re going to get attacked. You have to show who you are first,” Bush told 50 people at a restaurant in Salem.

“People have to shrug their shoulders.”

Amid celebrity show offs, $30 million raised at AIDS gala CAP D’ANTIBES, France (AP) — Amid celebrity schmoozing, glamourous fashions, musical performances and the frequent banging of the auction hammer, the French Riviera’s annual, star-filled amfAR gala brought in its expected share of drama — with celebrity invitees including Leonardo DiCaprio, Jake Gyllenhaal, Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, Sienna Miller and Adrien Brody.

But, importantly, Thursday’s celebrity auction in Cap d’Antibes, at the luxurious Hotel du Cap-Eden Roc, raised in excess of $30 million for the fight against AIDS, a cause for which Elizabeth Taylor, one of the organization’s founders, fought until her death in 2011. The late icon figured prominently into the hours-long event, as an Andy Warhol portrait of her was auction off — and quickly snapped up by Eva Longoria for 540,000 euros ($600,000).

Here are some other highlights from the starry night:

Jeff Koons caps art sales

The highlight of the celebrity auction was the sale, at about 11.6 million euros ($13 million) of art-

ist Jeff Koons’ “Coloring Book” sculpture to Russian billionaire Leonard Blavatnik. It was installed and much-admired by guests at the event venue, the Hotel Du Cap-Eden Roc hotel.

Art-collector-cum-”Titanic” star DiCaprio donated a work from his personal collection by enigmatic British street artist Banksy — bought for about 986,000 euros ($1.1 million). He also donated a gala ticket for his Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation charity event in St. Tropez, including a private dinner with him; that sold for 205,000 ($280,000).

Why was Sharon Stone not there?

The longtime amfAR auction host Sharon Stone was nowhere to be seen, a surprise, given her intense dedication to the event.

But in a statement to The Associated Press sent by amfAR, the 57-year-old said that she could not “attend due to work commitments.”

“I am grateful that on this my 20th year with amfAR, we have become a solid community that has grown to the point of functioning and succeeding in fundraising and HIV/AIDS awareness,” she added.

Australia in Europe’s Song Contest? In a word, yes.

VIENNA (AP) — For the first time in its 60-year history, the Eurovision Song Contest may be won by — Australia.

The land Down Under is making its debut in Europe’s favorite songfest, invited as a wild card due to its strong fan base. Its entry, Guy Sebastian, is one of the bookmakers’ favorites.

Sebastian is touted as being among the top five contestants along with entries from Sweden, Italy, Russia and Estonia. But all 27 nations contesting the top spot Saturday after surviving the elimination rounds have at least a theoretical chance of walking away the winner.

Still, Australia’s participation is this year’s buzz at the extravaganza, which catapulted into world consciousness last year with the win of bearded Austrian diva

Conchita Wurst. A co-host in this year’s competition, she has opted for a small role, so the spotlight stays on this year’s singers.

The Aussies are already stoked, or as Sebastian put it, “bitten by the Eurovision bug.” Australian delegation head Paul Clarke attributed the huge interest among his countrymen in part to the country’s “incredibly strong European presence.”

Delayed TV broadcasts of Eurovision contests have been shown for 30 years in Australia and Eurovision parties are common there. This year it will be shown live in Australia’s early morning hours, along with audiences elsewhere. Organizers expect a television audience of about 200 million to tune in globally to the spectacle taking place in Vienna’s sprawling Stadthalle, which has

been outfitted with the latest stage and light technology.

Huge public viewing screens have also been set up in key locations throughout the city for those brave enough to ignore Saturday’s predicted cold and windy showers.

The winner will be decided by votes weighed equally between those from a jury and those called in by viewers. To eliminate the population advantages of larger nations, viewers cannot cast ballots for their own country.

The annual competition is supposed to be removed from politics, and fittingly, this year’s theme is “Building Bridges.” Even so, the Ukraine crisis is making its presence felt.

Kiev is not sending a candidate this year. With many in the West viewing Moscow as the aggressor

in the Ukraine conflict, Russian contestant Polina Gagarina is raising some eyebrows with her pacifist-themed song, “A Million Voices.”

And in Russia, where propagating homosexuality is against the law and many view Wurst as a threat to traditional family values, the Orthodox Church already is warning of the consequences should Gagarina win, since the winner’s nation usually hosts the next year’s contest.

Tass and other Russian news agencies quoted Patriarch Kirill as saying her victory would bring the contest to Russia “with all those bearded female singers.” Acts such as Wurst’s promote values “repulsive to our soul and our culture,” he declared.

Despite such sentiments, millions saw Wurst’s win last year as a triumph for tolerance.

Signs of a heart attack are rarely this obvious.

The cast of ‘An Evening of Culture’ has been preparing for the play within a play since the end of March.

By Christina Stock Vision Editor Shakespeare might just be “doin’ the cattywampus” rotating in his grave, if he would know what a southern community little theater is doing to his “Romeo and Juliet.”

Despite the title, “An Evening of Culture,” the play is anything but. It is a full-blown slapstick comedy and the audience is advised to bring some tissues for all the tears of laughter. It’d written by Mark Landon Smith, who grew up in Arkansas.

“We played it once in our old location in 2004,” said Director Patti Stacy. “It was so much fun, and people were asking to bring it back. I had new ideas for the play and of course our wonderful new actors are adding to it. That turns it into a new play, even if you have seen it before.”

The play is actually a play within a play. The actors slip into the rolls of inept hilarious southern actors at the Mineola Council for Culture Recognition. Those actors have each several different rolls — sound familiar? Indeed, that is how it often happens at a local small community theater. Only in

this case, everything goes wrong.

Julie Ferguson plays Violet Farkle – the Director, trying to keep control, when everything is breaking; actors don’t know their lines, accidents happen, an actor forgets his costume and one wants to play something different – 20 minutes before the play starts.

Gina Montague Amos plays Mildred Carson, who plays Juliet. It is supposed to be a role for a teenager… but Mildred is a little on the mature side, as is Romeo, played by John Crocker, who plays Bubba Bedford and the rest of the actors.

Amos and Crocker are a couple made in heaven, or rather in the backwoods of Arkansas. They are as cute and funny together as a toe sack full of puppies. Both are known actors performing regularly at the Roswell Community Little Theatre.

Alethea Hartwell plays Naomi Farkle Carson, Juliet’s “momma,” also a local beautician doubling as make-up artist for the stars and trying to sell her beauty products while the play is in process. Hartwell is well-known in the community as actress and director, recently direct-

ing the Kids Arts Programs Play “Thea Thud and the Quest for Weird Beard.”

Chris Samuels plays Delbert Fink, who is not only the dangerous bad set builder but also is the “Prince;” hopefully he will find his crown before the play.

Denise Samuels plays Ruthann Barns, that poor “thang” has to cover all bases in her roles as friar, the page and a servant.

Shelly Forrester plays sexy Faye McFaye, Juliet’s nurse. Jonathan Wildman plays Luther Carson as Benvolio.

Stacy has been an actress, assisting director and director for the Roswell Community Little Theatre since 2001. “I have the best cast and crew for this action-packed comedy,” she said.

The Roswell Community Little Theatre is located at 1717 S. Union Ave. Performances will be on Friday, Saturday, June 5 and 6 at 7:30 p.m. and next Sunday and June 7 at 2 p.m. Call 622-1982 for reservations or visit the website to make reservations at roswelltheatre.com.

Kids Kickin’ It at Carpenter Park to start June 1

By Dylanne Petros Vistas Editor A brand new park program for kids will be open this summer starting June 1.

The program, Kids Kicking It at Carpenter Park, is a new program started by the Roswell Parks and Recreation Department in order to get kids moving during the summer.

The new director with Parks and Recreation, Tim Williams, challenged Laurie Jerge, recreation superintendent, and her team to create more activities for the community.

“He has challenged us to …. really meet needs of the under-served,” Jerge said.

The program, Jerge said, was not designed

just for kids who are home alone during the summer while parents work, but as a family activity.

Kids can go to the park from 9-11:30 a.m. and play, eat lunch provided by the Roswell Independent School District’s lunch program and listen to the Roswell Police Department officers speak.

“What’s really different … to do things together as friends with the other departments,” she said.

The police department will speak to kids so the kids can feel comfortable.

“The police department will be out there talking to the kids and making it so that children are not afraid to go up to a police officer or the fire department,” Jerge said. “We have a friendly staff across

the board.”

The program is free for all kids and their families, Jerge said. Sponsors include the Parks and Recreation Department, the Roswell Public Library, the Roswell Museum, the RPD and the Roswell Fire Department.

Carpenter Park is located at 300 E. Buena Vistas St., off Southeast Main Street.

“It’s just an opportunity to make a difference in the lives of a child to really give them some place to go,” she said.

Anniversary

Submitted Photos

First graders at Nancy Lopez Elementary School sent Vietnam veterans letters back in November for Veterans Day. On Tuesday, local Vietnam veterans visited the first grade class, bringing cupcakes and small American flags. The veterans talked to the students about the war and answered all questions the students asked. The veterans spent about an hour with the kids to show appreciation for the letters they received.

Reading to give to others

Submitted Photo

The students at Military Heights Elementary decided to participate in The Read to Give program. The students who reached their Accelerated Reader goal for the third nine weeks had the opportunity to pick a book out from the school book fair sponsored by the school PTA instead of receiving a prize for themselves. The book was given to local organizations for other children. The top readers of each grade level assisted in delivering the books to the Eastern New Mexico Medical Center received by CEO Maridel Acosta-Cruz and staff members of CASA.

Longtime Roswell residents Robert Paul Byron and Jeannine Hooper Byron celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary in an intimate gathering with family and friends at Pepper’s restaurant on May 23, 2015.

The evening began on the patio with a renewal of the vows they made 60 years ago followed by a champagne toast. The guests joined them in the banquet room for a reception dinner.

Bob and Jeannine Byron were married on May 15, 1955 in Roswell at Saint Andrews Episcopal Church

by Father Davies.

The couple met on a “blind date” when Bob was a college sophomore attending New Mexico Military Institute and Jeannine was a junior and a cheerleader at Roswell High School. Bob graduated from the NMMI four-year college with a bachelor of arts degree in 1954.

While attending NMMI, he participated in ROTC, which earned him his commission as a Second Lt. in the U. S. Army and was assigned to the 73rd Tank Battalion in Korea. Jeannine began her studies at Texas Tech university where she was in Kappa Kappa Gamma Sorority.

Jeannine attended her sophomore year at the University of Texas while Bob was in graduate school at The University of Oklahoma. Bob asked Jeannine to meet him in Dallas at the OU vs. Texas Red River Rivalry and during halftime he proposed to her and gave her an engagement ring. Jeannine transferred to the University of Oklahoma and they were married in Roswell.

Six months later, Bob was deployed to Korea for a year and a half while Jean-

nine went to work at the Ohio Oil company in Roswell.

When Bob returned from Korea as a 1st Lt. he was hired as an “Oil Scout” by Magnolia Petroleum Company and sent to San Antonia, Texas where their first child Dollianna “Dolli” was born. The couple was transferred to Corpus Christi, Texas.

Bob was promoted to Petroleum Land Man and the family was transferred to Shreveport, Louisiana, where their son, Robert “Bob” Vincent Byron was born. He then transferred to Jackson, Mississippi for a little over a year and then returned to Shreveport, Louisiana where their third child Paul Hunter Byron was born.

The family moved back to Roswell in 1971 where Bob and Jeannine opened their business, Byron Oil. Jeannine has been active in the Morning Garden Club as an accredited flower show judge, the symphony guild, Goddard Booster Club, Kappa Kappa Gamma Sorority, Petro Club and Birthday Club. Bob has been involved in the NMMI Alumni Association, St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church, a two-time president of the New Mexico Landman’s Association and the two-time vice-president of the 73rd Tank Battalion alumni.

Dolli Byron of Norman, Oklahoma, is a 1976 graduate of Goddard High

School and a 1980 Graduate of the University of Oklahoma. She is the top sales associate at Speedhorse Magazine. She has one daughter, Kourtni Beebe who is a 2011 graduate from Oklahoma City University and is an actor living in New York City.

Bob Byron of Plano, Texas is a 1981 graduate of NMMI and a 1985 graduate of the University of Oklahoma. Bob is a MIS specialist. His wife Michele Byron is a graduate of The University of Oklahoma. They have three children, Alexandra “Alex” who is attending the University of Oklahoma, Robert “Connor” who is attending the University of Texas and Zachary “Zach” who is attending Jasper High School in Plano.

Paul Byron of Champaign, Illinois is the student body president of the graduating class of 1988 at Goddard High School, a 1990 Graduate of Musicians Institute and a 1992 graduate of South Planes College. Paul is a hearing aid specialist. He has two children, Sylvia and Robert “Rob” who attend Next Generation School. Sylvia is the 2015 Illinois state silver medalist in the 100 hurdles.

Bob and Jeannine love traveling to see “Sooner” football and to see family and friends. They continue to reside in Roswell and enjoy their residence in Ruidoso.

C4 Sunday, May 24, 2015 Dear Abby

Universal Press Syndicate DEAR ABBY: My son’s dad cheated on me for years, which resulted in a child with another woman. When I finally got the nerve to date and trust again, the new guy gave me herpes.

Now I find myself repulsed at the thought of sex, and I have no intention of putting myself in the position of having to disclose this information to a new partner. I am content to never have sex again.

The problem is, I have a young son who longs for a father and has asked on sev-

Comics eral occasions why I won’t get a boyfriend. I feel it is unfair to him to miss out on something so important as having a father, but I can’t stomach the thought of being with another man. What should I tell him?

DISGUSTED AND ALONE DEAR DISGUSTED: Tell your son a version of the truth — with some judicious editing. Tell him that you were very much in love with his father, but that it didn’t work out. Explain that finding the right partner can take a long time — it’s the truth — and you’re not sure when you will be able to provide a father for him. If he wants to know why, tell him your heart isn’t ready.

While it’s understandable that you would have trust issues after what you have experienced, not all men are cheaters, and a surprising number of people in the United States who have herpes (HSV-2) do not know they have it -- and that they can infect others. This may have

been the case with the man from whom you caught it.

If you are reluctant to disclose this information because of embarrassment, there is a website that you might find interesting, H-Date.com. It offers a free dating service through which thousands of men and women meet one another. Many very nice, eligible people -- people just like you -- have herpes and live full, happy lives. Please check it out.

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: I have been asked to be a bridesmaid in my best friend’s wedding. I am more than delighted she wants me and honored to have been asked.

However, this will be my third wedding as a bridesmaid.

I have been told, “Three times a bridesmaid, never a bride.” Abby, is this true? If so, how can I gently let her know I can’t be in her wedding for fear of never being married

Roswell Daily Record

myself, because her wedding will be my third trip to the altar as a bridesmaid?

ENOUGH ALREADY DEAR ENOUGH ALREADY: I don’t know where that saying came from, but my advice is not to dwell on the negative. There is another old saying that could apply here.

It’s “three times is the charm.”

In other words, if you agree to be your best friend’s bridesmaid, it’s possible you could meet your future husband at the wedding. Which one you choose to believe is up to you.

HHHHH DEAR READERS: Along with the millions of Americans who are observing this Memorial Day, I would like to add my prayer of thanks to those men and women of our armed services who sacrificed their lives in service to our country. May they rest in peace.

Hints

from Heloise

King Features Syndicate Dear Readers: Here is this week’s SOUND OFF, about baby-food jars: “Who on earth invented the shape of baby-food jars? Obviously it was not a mother! Recently, my partner and I began feeding one of our elderly dogs baby food, as she would not eat her regular food. It’s almost impossible, even with the smallest spoon, to get all of the food out of the jar!”

Marilyn M., Colonial Beach, Va. Marilyn, you aren’t the only one who thinks this way. Part of the problem is that manufacturers aren’t (though they should be) thinking about the consumer using the product. They are concerned with the product, the baby food, and not really with the container. It all comes down to money!

Heloise

Dilbert

For Better or For Worse

HHHHH Dear Readers: Here are other uses for a changing table: • Use outside for plants and a garden workstation.

• In a craft room for supply storage.

• In an entryway to store keys, umbrellas, gloves, etc.

• In a laundry room as a folding station.

• As a buffet or sideboard in the dining room.

Heloise P.S.: Readers, do you have any other smart ways to repurpose a changing table?

Garfield

HHHHH Dear Heloise: I once read in one of your columns how to remove label glue on cloth. I bought a pair of denim jeans, and when I pulled the long strip with the size printed on it, there was glue residue left. What should I do?

Mona, via email This is one of those “What the heck were they thinking?” situations. Once, I forgot to take off the strip, and I went on my way to run errands. Luckily, a very nice lady at the store mentioned it to me, and boy, did I feel like a dummy! Here is the easy fix: Apply some petroleum-based prewash spray, cleaning fluid or liquid laundry detergent to the backside of the material.

Turning the garment inside out makes it easier to work on. Rub in the cleaning agent and let it sit for 10 minutes or so to give it time to work. Launder as you usually do, but DON’T put the jeans in the dryer until you check to make sure all residue is gone. Repeat the process if needed — it may take a second or third attempt.

SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O. Box 795000 San Antonio, TX 78279-5000 Fax: 1-210-HELOISE Email: Heloise(at)Heloise.com

Dear Heloise: I live on a dark country road.

We don’t have streetlights, and it is hard to find our driveway at night.

We tried reflectors, but they did not help because so many people use reflectors. To make our driveway stand out, we lined it with garden solar lights. They charge during the day and light up at night. Now it is easier to find our driveway.

M.A. in Texas Very good hint! I, too, live in an area where it’s very dark and there are only a few streetlamps. This also will help guests if they come to visit after dark.

Scout as a summer camp leader. He also cited broader developments related to gay rights.

“I remind you of the recent debates we have seen in places like Indiana and Arkansas over discrimination based on sexual orientation, not to mention the impending U.S. Supreme Court decision this summer on gay marriage,” he said. “We must deal with the world as it is, not as we might wish it to be.”

Gates said the BSA technically had the power to revoke the charters of councils that defied the ban on gay adults, but said this would be harmful to boys in those regions He also noted that many states have passed laws prohibiting employment discrimination based on sexual orientation, raising the possibility of extensive legal battles.

“Thus, between internal challenges and potential legal conflicts, the BSA finds itself in an unsustainable position, a position that makes us vulnerable to the possibility the courts simply will order us at some point to change our membership policy,” Gates said.

He expressed concern that an eventual court order might also strike down the BSA’s policy of banning atheists.

“Waiting for the courts is a gamble with huge stakes,” he said. “Alternatively, we can move at some future date — but sooner rather than later — to seize control of our own future, set our own course and change our policy in order to allow charter partners — unit sponsoring organizations — to determine the standards for their Scout leaders.”

Such an approach, he

said, would allow churches, which sponsor about 70 percent of Scout units, to establish leadership standards consistent with their faith.

“I truly fear that any other alternative will be the end of us as a national movement,” he said.

But some churches may be alienated nonetheless.

Some Southern Baptist churches stopped sponsoring troops after gay scouts were allowed, and letting in gay adults will likely prompt even more departures, said Southern Evangelical Seminary President Richard Land, who formerly led the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission.

To him, Scouts shouldn’t have leaders who are sexually attracted to their gender, whether a heterosexual man leading Girl Scouts or a gay man supervising boys, no matter objections that leaders of any sexuality shouldn’t be assumed to be potential pedophiles.

“This seems to me to be sound judgment 101,” he said, calling Gates’ message a display of “political correctness.”

The Utah-based Mormon church is the nation’s largest sponsor of Boy Scout units, and in the past has supported the ban on participation by openly gay adults.

In a brief statement Thursday, the church said it would examine any policy changes “very carefully to assess how they might impact our own century-long association with the BSA.” The Human Rights Campaign, the largest U.S. gay-rights group, called Gates’ speech “a step in the right direction.”

“But, as we have said

Boy Scouts’ leader says ban on gay adults not sustainable

NEW YORK (AP) — The president of the Boy Scouts of America, Robert Gates, said Thursday that the organization’s longstanding ban on participation by openly gay adults is no longer sustainable and called for change in order to prevent “the end of us as a national movement.”

In a speech in Atlanta to the Scouts’ national annual meeting, Gates referred to recent moves by Scout councils in New York City and elsewhere to defy the ban.

“The status quo in our movement’s membership standards cannot be sustained,” he said.

Gates said no change in the policy would be made at the national meeting.

But he raised the possibility of revising the policy at some point soon so that local Scout organizations could decide on their own whether to allow gays as adult volunteers and paid staff.

In 2013, after bitter internal debate, the BSA decided to allow openly gay youth as scouts, but not gay adults as leaders.

The change took effect in January 2014.

Gates, who became the BSA’s president in May 2014, said at the time that he personally would have favored ending the ban on gay adults, but he opposed any further debate after the Scouts’ policymaking body upheld the ban.

On Thursday, however, he said recent events “have confronted us with urgent challenges I did not foresee and which we cannot ignore.”

He cited the recent defiant announcement by the BSA’s New York City chapter in early April that it had hired the nation’s first openly gay Eagle

many times previously, half measures are unacceptable, especially at one of America’s most storied institutions,” said the campaign’s president, Chad Griffin. “It’s time for BSA leaders to show true leadership and embrace a full national policy of inclusion.”

Until Thursday, there had been no indication how the BSA would respond to the New York Councils, which on April 2 announced the hiring of Pascal Tessier, an 18-year-old Eagle Scout.

Tessier, currently finishing his freshman year of college, has been a vocal advocate of opening the 105-year-old organization to gay scouts and leaders.

Tessier had been getting legal advice from prominent lawyer David Boies, whose recent causes include arguing for recognition of same-sex marriage. Boies said it was possible that Tessier’s hiring could lead to litigation between the New York chapter and the BSA’s national headquarters, but he expressed hope this could be avoided.

After Tessier’s hire, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman’s office opened an inquiry into the BSA’s membership policies and influence over local councils’ hiring decisions. The office, which cited state laws against hiring discrimination based on sexual orientation, was reviewing Gates’ remarks Thursday.

One of Tessier’s lawyers, Josh Schiller, expressed hope that the BSA’s ban would be lifted.

“People will join the Boy Scouts and look at them as an organization that has the principles of equality,” he said.

Gay couple has adoption vacated, now they can marry When Bill Novak and Norman MacArthur moved to the Philadelphia suburbs nearly 20 years ago, they were dismayed to learn that Pennsylvania would not recognize their domestic partnership from New York.

So, in 2000, Novak adopted MacArthur — two years his junior — as his son. The move reduced their inheritance tax liability and gave them hospital visitation and other legal rights then unavailable to same-sex couples.

“We were told when we started to look into this that hell would freeze over before Pennsylvania allowed same-sex marriage,” said MacArthur, now 76. “So doing the adoption was literally the only thing we could do to give legal underpinning to our relationship.”

After a federal judge lifted Pennsylvania’s samesex marriage ban last year, the couple, who have been together more than 50 years, wanted to tie the knot. But their legal status as father and son stood in the way.

No longer.

Judge Gary B. Gilman of Bucks County Orphans’ Court vacated the adoption decree last week. It’s the first time a same-sex couple in Pennsylvania petitioned to have their adoption dissolved so they could marry, according to the couple’s attorney, Terry Clemons.

“It removes the hurdle for other people who may be in the same position as Bill and Norm,” Clemons said.

There are no statistics on the number of gay couples who have used adoption as a means to obtain legal recognition of their relationships. But the practice had been controversial within the gay community, said Angela Giampolo, a Philadelphia attorney specializ-

ing in lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender law.

Giampolo said she was approached years ago by a gay couple who wanted her to help them navigate the adoption process, but she turned them down.

“What a lot of advocates back then were saying was this was delegitimizing” of same-sex relationships, said Giampolo, who blogs as Philly Gay Lawyer.

Also, unlike a marriage, the adoption could not be undone, she said she told the couple.

MacArthur said his status as Novak’s legal son did not change the dynamics of their relationship in any way. Friends and family greeted it with a shrug, he said.

About 30 of the couple’s friends were in the courtroom last week when the judge, noting rapid acceptance of same-sex marriage nationally, agreed to vacate the adoption.

“The courtroom burst into applause. I burst into tears,” MacArthur recalled.

“They were certainly happy tears. After months of investigating ways that we could do this and finally having the decision coming down in our favor, I’m still walking 3 feet above the ground.”

He said he knows of several gay couples who went through the adoption process, and Clemons is representing one other couple who is petitioning to vacate the adoption so they can marry.

Novak, 78, and MacArthur have already gotten a marriage license and plan to wed soon.

The Doylestown Patch news site first reported on the couple.
