Democratic Party chair endorses Jurney Vol. 123, No. 43 75¢ Daily / $1.25 Sunday

JILL MCLAUGHLIN RECORD STAFF WRITER

The chairman of the Chaves County Democratic Party sent a strongly worded email to members Friday, throwing his support behind “party friend” Mayor Del Jurney.

In the email, chairman Fred Moran asks county Democrats to get the word out by emailing and calling friends and family and urging them to vote for Jurney. He also told them that mayoral candidate Dennis Kintigh was “wrong for Roswell.”

Moran confirmed he sent the email Friday from his personal account, but asked the Record not to publish the contents.

“That email that you have, it’s not for publication. That was a private email to private Democrats,” Moran told the Record. “I wouldn’t publish it if I wer e you.”

Jurney said endorsements are always positive.

“People are always endorsing various candidates,” Jur ney said. “Endorsements are always positive and the support that it shows for the candidate. I would

look at this one in the very same way.”

Although the position is nonpartisan, both candidates are Republicans. For Moran, he said the decision came down to choosing the “lesser of two evils.”

Moran doesn’t think Jurney has gone far enough, but he’s headed in the right direction.

“It’s like two bald guys fighting over a comb, in the eyes of Democrats,” Moran said.

Jurney has been a friend to the Democratic Party since in office, according to Moran. With

Jurney, Democrats have access to the office, he’s open to listening and he’s a good man.

“Democrats don’t have a big part to play her e in Chaves County, but we’ve always been able to reach out to the mayor for things,” Moran said.

When the party needed to host the Fall State Central Committee in Roswell, Jurney intervened and secured the Civic Center for the event. He helped the party host a barbecue on the Chaves County Courthouse lawn and personally welcomed the state central committee to Roswell.

Jur ney also gave the Civic Center facilities to the group to host an event to help raise funds for former Sen. Tim Jennings, which raised $36,000 for Big Br others, Big Sisters of Southeast New Mexico.

Jur ney said he often helps groups get access to city venues, but he is more of a facilitator.

“We’ve done that for multiple organizations and for multiple reasons,” Jurney said.

Moran contends that Kintigh, a former state representative, is

Ethiopian co-pilot hijacks plane Big Brothers GENEVA (AP) — It seemed like a routine overnight flight until the Ethiopian Airlines jetliner went into a dive and oxygen masks dropped from the ceiling.

Only then did the terrified passengers — bound for Italy from Addis Ababa — realize something was terribly wrong.

The co-pilot had locked his captain from the cockpit, commandeered the plane, and headed for Geneva, where he used a rope to lower himself out of a window, then asked for political asylum.

Authorities say a prison cell is more likely.

One passenger said the hijacker threatened to crash the plane if the pilot didn’t stop pounding on the locked door. Another said he was terrified “for hours” Monday as the plane careened across the sky.

“It seemed like it was falling from the sky,” 45year -old Italian Diego Carpelli said of the Boeing 767-300.

The jetliner carrying 200 passengers and crew took off from the Ethiopian capital on a flight to Milan and then Rome, but sent a dis-

Once the plane was over Europe, two Italian fighter jets and later French jets were scrambled to accompany it.

The annual Bowl for Kids’ Sake, sponsored by the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Southeastern New Mexico, is seeking bowling teams for the fundraiser, which will be held on April 26.

Bowl For Kids’ Sake is the Big Brothers Big Sisters’ signature fundraiser, and money raised through the bowling event allows Big Brothers Big Sisters to make more mentoring matches, according to a news release.

The event will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and from 2 to 4 p.m. on April 26 at the Town & Country Bowling Center, located at 3905 S.E. Main. Registration and bowler names submissions are due by April 12.

The funds raised allow Big Brothers Big Sisters to provide ongoing monthly support to the volunteers, children and their families.

Toni Lewis suspects tea party Republicans are “a bunch of people who probably need some mental health treatment.”

This Jan. 27 file photo shows former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton speaking in New Orleans. The debate about whether to continue the dragnet surveillance of Americansʼ phone records is highlighting divisions within the Democratic and Republican parties that could transform the politics of national security.

North Carolina and the Massachusetts liberal live a world apart.

Who or what could get them thinking the same?

Edward Snowden and the National Security Agency.

By exposing the NSA’s vast surveillance web, Snowden created a link between tea partyers and liberals — two tribes camped on opposite sides of the nation’s political chasm.

These people to the right and left of mainstream America sound a lot alike now.

Sparks, a federal retiree in the Blue Ridge mountain town of Sparta and a political independent, condemns the NSA programs as “a breach of privacy which

Lifetime Democrat Lewis, a social worker in the city of Brockton, near Boston, says, “When we’re violating the rights of U.S. citizens, I think that’s a dangerous line to be walking.”

Whether they are Republicans, Democrats or independents, almost half of Americans say they support the tea party movement or call themselves liberal.

Archbishop of Santa Skandera nomination stalls in committee Fe says he will resign SANTA FE (AP) — Archbishop of Santa Fe Michael Sheehan announced Sunday he will resign later this year, citing church rules that will require him to submit his resignation on his 75th birthday.

In a recorded message played to parishioners, Sheehan said he will write the letter on his birthday in July.

“At that time I must submit my resignation letter to the Holy See,” he said. “It may take a while for my successor to be appointed.”

It will up to Pope Francis on when to accept the resignation and when to appoint a successor, archdiocese officials said.

SANTA FE (AP) — The nomination of Hanna Skandera as Republican Gov. Susana Martinez’s secretary of education stalled on Monday, but she will continue to serve in her cabinetlevel job.

The Rules Committee split 5-5 on whether to send Skandera’s nomination to the Senate for a confirmation vote without a recommendation on whether she should be confirmed.

The deadlock means that Skandera nomination will remain bottled up in the committee, with the Legislature set to adjourn on Thursday.

But nothing prevents Skandera from remaining as the top administrator in the agency that oversees

After the committee vote, Skandera told reporters she had no plans to resign and described it as a “day of politics.”

“The disappointment is we’ve allowed politics to rule at the end of the day versus our kids,” she said. “I think I’ve demonstrated from start to finish that I’m committed to delivering for our kids, and nothing has changed.”

Skandera has drawn opposition from many Democrats and educational unions because of the governor’s

Skandera’s critics also contend she doesn’t meet a constitutional requirement for the department secretary to be a “qualified, experienced educator.”

GENERAL

CARLSBAD (AP) — Meet Bill Huff. His age is unknown but the raspy tone in his voice hints at a person who has seen a lot during his lifetime. It was a rand o m d a y i n 1 9 8 2 a n d t he African-American man spent almost two hours discussing a t im e i n C ar l s b a d t ha t n o w seems like a distant memory.

H e t a lk ed ab o ut s ev er a l things, but mostly he talked about some of Carlsbad’s darker times during segregation. However, he never let the negative feelings ruin his time in a city he had come to admire.

“It’s a nice wonderful town,” he says. “Lovely people here and nice folks here. Majority (people) here are good folks and they always been good folks here in this town, regardless of creed or color.”

Huff may just live as a memor y i n so me of C ar l s ba d r es idents’ minds; he is just one of Carlsbad’s black residents who were interviewed to be included in New Mexico State University’s oral history interview collection.

In his interview, Huff said he moved to Carlsbad in 1944 from Colton, Texas, following a brief visit to the city. He did some minor work at a local car garage which is how he earned his liv-

ing in Texas. Money was ultimately the deciding factor to drag him and his wife across s ta t e b o r de r s. A fi gu r e on a week’s check from the Carlsbad g a ra g e w as t h e t icket , e ve n though it startled him at first.

He sa i d h e t h o u gh t h i s fir st w ee k l y p a y c h ec k fr om t h e garage was a mistake. He was u se d t o r ec e iv i ng $1 2 fo r a w ee k ’ s w o rt h o f pa y at t h e garage in Texas. So, it should be understandable his shock when he saw a check for $55 at the end of the week. It was news he immediately told his wife.

“I said ‘Honey, I tell you what.

D i d y o u k no w I m ad e m or e money in one week then both of u s w or k d o w n t h er e i n a month?”’

The decision was simple and Huff moved down to Carlsbad.

W h i l e $ 55 d o l la rs a week sounds paltry by today’s standards, he admitted in the interview it was the most amount of m on e y h e e ve r se en at t ha t point. Work was a value Huf f seemed to respect and honor. In the interview, he said his first job involved him washing dishes f or a w o ma n w h en h e was younger. His pay: a chance to use her new bike for 40 minutes, which was fine by him. He

asked his father if he could get a new bike he wanted, but his father could not afford a bike at the time. So his trade-off was to work for bike time. And he had no complaints.

“That was my pay,” he said. “I was satisfied. (I) Had a stomach full food free of charge and riding a bicycle.”

For Leget Reynolds, aka Deaco n J on es, li fe in C ar lsb ad be ga n ea rli er. B or n in Charleston, Ark., Jones moved to Carlsbad in 1929, before the start of the Great Depression and was later interviewed to work for the library.

Jones talks about his time as a g uit ar playe r fo r co wbo y dances around town. He loved playing, something he said during his interview, he still did at a local church. And like Huff, Jones enjoyed his pay. Jones said he and his partner would split $80, $90, and even $100 per gig they played.

“I was scared to say anything about it,” he said. “Somebody might rob me.”

Jones was the youngest of 15, he said during the interview. He moved to Carlsbad for a better place to live. Jones spent time doing farm work, railroad jobs and highway work.

Roswell Daily Record

“When I first came to Carlsbad, there were just mesquite bushes and cotton patches,” he said. “There weren’t no country clubs. Just mesquites and sand dunes.”

But don’t add bartending as a job he loved. In the interview, he said it was the worst job he had. He spent time as a bartender at several local bars, but the fights and drunks became too much for Jones he said. In fact, he credits bartending as o ne o f t h e r eason s h e qu it drinking in 1965.

While these two people reminisced on some of their good times in Carlsbad, both Huf f and Jones spent most of their first years in Carlsbad witnessing segregation first hand.

“When I first came to Carlsbad it was segregated,” Jones said. “When I first come here, I couldn’t go in the cafe in front.”

And segregation extended further than the restaurants. Public schools were also, at one time, segregated.

Huff said African-Americans were not allowed to stay at the local hotels and motels on their trips from Hobbs to El Paso.

“The black folks that would come through here, they had to go to El Paso to spend a night,”

Navajo panel to hold hearing on discrimination

Huff said a local man at the time felt so bad about accommodations for African-Americans he offered Huff the chance to take over a five-room motel.

Huff was only required to pay utilities for the facility, which he said featured furnished beds and stoves.

Huff was able to manage the small motel for blacks, which was profitable enough for him to build a second one down on San Jose Boulevard. Huff also op en ed u p a gr ocer y st or e, which he claims in the interview was the first African-American operated grocery store.

When desegregation became a r equ ir em en t , Hu f f said h e struggled to stay afloat. Many of the other hotels offered more amenities such as swimming pools and restaurants. His second motel, which still had a loan on it, was sold to another buyer, he said. But it didn’t keep him down.

SHIPROCK (AP) — A Navajo panel on human rights is inviting tribal members to testify about gender discrimination experienced by women, gays and lesbians in the community.

The Farmington Daily Times reports (http://bit.ly/1hm2RyI) the Navajo Nation Human Rights Commission will hold a public hearing Wednesday at the Shiprock Chapter House.

Leonard Gorman, executive director of the Human Rights Commission office, says the commission has received reports from international human rights groups that indigenous women are experiencing a rise in acts of violence.

Gorman says the hearing also wants to address discrimination against bisexual, transgender and homosexuals.

Gorman says the commission will also take written testimony.

The hearing will run from

10 a.m. to 5 p.m. It’s the last in a series of public hearings. There were two others in Arizona.

Game Commission chair resigns

SANTA FE (AP) — The chair of the New Mexico Game Commission has resigned amid allegations that he was an accessory to an unlawful killing of a cougar.

The Department of Game and Fish announced Monday that Scott Bidegain turned in his resignation over the weekend.

Officials say department officers filed a misdemeanor charge against Bidegain in Quay County Magistrate Court on Monday in connection with the cougar killing.

Bidegain says he was present during “a hunting incident earlier this month” and he believed it was in the commission’s best interest that he stepped down.

Officials say Vice Chairman Thomas “Dickie” Salopek will lead the commission.

“The pilot went to the toilet and (the co-pilot) locked himself in the cockpit,” Geneva airport chief executive Robert Deillon told reporters. He “wanted asylum in Switzerland.”

It wasn’t immediately clear why he chose Switzerland, where Swiss voters recently demanded curbs on immigration. However, Italy has a reputation among many Africans as not being hospitable to asylum seekers.

Ethiopian Airlines is owned by Ethiopia’s government, which has faced persistent criticism over its rights record and its alleged intolerance of political dissent.

“His action represents a gross betrayal of trust that needlessly endangered the lives of the very passengers that a pilot is morally and professionally obliged to safeguard,” Redwan said.

One passenger, Francesco Cuomo, told the Italian news agency ANSA that he and other passengers woke up shortly after midnight when the plane started to “bounce.”

“The pilot was threatening (the hijacker) to open the cockpit door and tried to knock it down without succeeding,” said Cuomo, a 25year-old economist from Italy.

“We got scared because we saw these (oxygen masks) come down and the voice of the pilot, that usually is friendly and mellow, was cracking and worried, saying, ‘Breathe with the oxygen masks!

Sit down!’... Then the plane fell sharply two times,” Italian passenger Paola Casale told The Associated Press.

“I thought that the co-pilot had gone nuts,” Cuomo told the Corriere della Sera newspaper, adding that “there was a lake below us, and so we suspected that we weren’t landing in Milan.”

“I realized we weren’t in Italy any longer when I recognized the Alps,” he said. “When we started circling above Geneva, we were really afraid.”

Panel shelves early childhood ed proposal

SANTA FE (AP) — A proposal to boost funding for early childhood education has stalled in a Senate committee with time running out in the legislative session.

The measure was tabled by the Finance Committee on 8-2 vote Monday night, likely dooming the proposal.

The Legislature adjourns on Thursday.

The proposal by Senate Majority Leader Michael Sanchez would change the state constitution to increase how much is allocated annually from the $13 billion Land Grant Permanent Fund.

Supporters say the measure would provide $160 million a year for early childhood programs that could help kids succeed in school and later in jobs.

Opponents contend the proposal would slow the fund’s growth, lessening payouts for future generations.

If lawmakers endorsed the proposal, it would be placed on the November general election ballot for voter approval.

Among the 200 people on board were seven crew members, as well as 139 Italians, 11 Americans, 10 Ethiopians, five Nigerians and four French citizens.

Swiss authorities initially thought the Ethiopian plane wanted to land in Geneva for emergency refueling before realizing it was being hijacked, Geneva police spokesman Eric Grandjean said.

Minutes after landing in Geneva, the co-pilot used a rope to climb out of the cockpit, then approached police forces deployed near the plane and “announced that he was himself the hijacker,” Grandjean said.

Police escorted the passengers out of the jetliner one by one, their hands over their heads, and took them to waiting vehicles. Video

Finally, the committee deadlocked on a move by Republicans to send the nomination to the Senate without a recommendation on whether Skandera be confir med. Five Democrats opposed that ef fort.

Republicans supported it along with Sanchez.

Senate GOP Leader Stuart Ingle of Portales said after the hearing that he thought Skandera would have won confirmation had the Senate been able to vote. Democrats hold a 25-17 advantage in the Senate.

“I think it’s basically political,” Ingle said in an interview. “That’s all it is.”

He said, “Every governor has the right to choose people for their cabinet. There’s been this constant protest because she does want to change some things.”

Kintigh dismissed allegations in Moran’s email as false and misleading, including a quote Moran apparently took out of context that characterized Kintigh as calling community members names.

“I think Mr. Moran is way off base,” Kintigh said.

The Archdiocese of Santa Fe includes more than 300,000 Catholics in central and northern New Mexico.

Kintigh met with Moran last fall and of fer ed to appear before the county Democratic Party, he said. He offered to answer any questions the group had.

“What I was told subsequently was the Democratic Party of Chaves County did not want to hear me,” Kintigh said.

However, several state Democrats have openly supported Kintigh’s campaign, he said. “ As mayor, I will reach out and initiate conversations with all parts of this community,” Kintigh said. “I’ve reached out to, and met with, former Mayor Bill Brainers, for mer Mayor T om Jennings, visited with (former) Sen. Tim Jennings, a number of times. I don’t have a problem visiting with any individual, or groups of individuals, in this community. And, I think my record clearly demonstrates that.”

The organization’s mission is to help boys and girls, most of whom are considered at-risk and live in single-parent homes, achieve their full potential through long term, personal relationships with carefully screened, dedicated adult volunteers.

According to the website, research shows that after only 18 months in a Big/Little match, children are twice as likely as their peers to avoid drug use, perform better in school and get along better at home and in the community.

The program is offered at no charge to the children and their families.

Geneva prosecutor Olivier Jornot said the co-pilot will be charged with taking hostages, a crime punishable by up to 20 years in prison in Switzerland. In Ethiopia, he could face up to 25 years in prison for the hijacking.

Jornot said the hijacker’s chances of winning asylum were slim.

“Technically there is no connection between asylum and the fact he committed a crime to come here,” he said. “But I think his chances are not very high.”

The Swiss federal prosecutors’ office took over the case later Monday.

net data, an Associated Press-GfK poll shows.

By a 2-to-1 margin, these two groups say the government should put protecting citizens’ rights and freedoms ahead of protecting them from terrorists.

Nearly 6 in 10 Republicans support the tea party movement. Nearly 4 in 10 Democrats call themselves liberals. Combined, they are buoying a coalition of conservative and liberal lawmakers pushing to rein in the NSA, while party leaders balk at anything that might weaken the agency’s ability to foil terrorists.

Why does the NSA unite the right and left ends of the political spectrum?

“More extreme political views lead to more distrust of gover nment,” said George Mason University law professor Ilya Somin, who’s studied the tea party’s focus on the Constitution. People at the far ends of the political spectrum are less likely than middle-of-the-road voters to feel gover nment is responsive to them.

On the flip side, Somin said, moderates generally don’t follow politics as closely as people at the extremes, so they may be less aware of the scope of the NSA’s activities.

“The whole thing is wrong,” says Virginia Greenfield, a tea-party supporter in Cortland, N.Y. But, she says, “most people don’t want to believe that the government would do what it’s doing.”

Liberals, who tend to trust government to handle many matters, also tend to be suspicious of intrusions into privacy or civil liberties. That aligns them on some issues with libertarians, the champions of individual rights who make up a substantial portion of the tea party movement.

Another segment of the tea party — social conservatives — deeply mistrusts President Barack Obama and his administration, an attitude likely to extend to

the NSA while he’s in charge.

Obama is a point of contention in the anti-surveillance coalition. Eight in 10 tea partyers dislike the way he’s handled the issue; only about half of liberals disapprove. Still, the NSA brings liberals closer to the teaparty way of thinking than usual: On other big issues, liberals’ approval for Obama generally hovers around 70 percent.

When it comes to Snowden, tea-party supporters and liberals are back in step — about half of each group says the former NSA contractor did the right thing. Among non-tea party Republicans and nonliberal Democrats, a strong majority thinks he was wrong to reveal classified programs.

Christina Ott, who works on her family’s farm near Woodbury, Tenn., found Snowden’s action inspiring.

“I thought it was somebody taking a moral stand and a big risk,” said Ott, a liberal Democrat.

She isn’t surprised to find herself siding with the tea party for once. Regardless of their political views, Ott said, the people who worry about mass surveillance are the ones “who are paying close attention and believe it is possible for things to go badly wrong.”

But Lewis, an Obama fan, is shocked to agree with tea partyers about anything.

“I can’t explain it. It’s kind of scary,” she said, joking: “Now I might have to rethink my position.”

The AP-GfK Poll was conducted Jan. 17-21 using KnowledgePanel, GfK’s probability-based online panel. It involved online interviews with 1,060 adults. The survey has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.9 percentage points for all respondents. Those respondents who did not have Internet access before joining the panel were provided it for free.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Most Americans with intellectual or developmental disabilities remain shut out of the workforce, despite changing attitudes and billions spent on government programs to help them.

Even when they find work, it’s often part time, in a dead-end job or for pay well below the minimum wage.

Employment is seen as crucial for improving the quality of life for people with these disabilities and considered a benchmark for measuring the success of special education programs.

Yet the jobs picture is as bleak now as it was more than a decade ago.

Only 44 percent of intellectually disabled adults are currently in the labor force, either employed or looking for work, while just 34 percent are actually working, according to a survey by Special Olympics and conducted by Gallup and the University of Massachusetts at Boston. That compares with 83 percent of nondisabled, working-age adults who are in the workforce.

“The needle has not changed in more than four

decades,” said Gary Siperstein, professor at the University of Massachusetts and one of the authors of the study. “We just can’t move the barometer. And we’ve invested a lot of resources with lots of good programs around the country.”

Intellectual disability can include conditions such as autism or Down syndrome.

But the vast majority of cases are those with limited intellectual capacity — generally an IQ of about 75 or less — and limitations in handling basic life skills, such as counting money or taking public transportation.

About 28 percent of working-age adults with intellectual disabilities have never held a job. Even those who do manage to find jobs often end up working only part time and get lower pay than workers without disabilities, the study found. On the positive side, 62 percent of disabled people who work in a competitive setting have been there three years or more, showing they can work and stay with it.

“A lot of the problem has

to do with low expectations,” said L ynnae Ruttledge, a member of the National Council on Disability, an independent federal agency that advises the government on disability policy. “Schoolteachers don’t have high expectations, and parents tend to be very protective of their children.”

But attitudes are changing, she said. There are now more programs to help disabled children to gain work experience while still in school, making it easier to find a job. Many intellectually disabled people work in fast food, and retail chains such as Walgreens, Best Buy and Safeway that have stepped up to hire them.

Another hurdle is that about 30 percent of intellectually disabled people who work do so in sheltered workshops, where they perform basic tasks but are segregated from nondisabled workers. They can legally be paid less than the minimum wage under a 1938 federal law that allows wages to be based on comparing their productivity level with that of a nondisabled worker.

Older Americans are early winners under health law

CHICAGO (AP) — For many older Americans who lost jobs during the recession, the quest for health care has been one obstacle after another. They’re unwanted by employers, rejected by insurers, struggling to cover rising medical costs and praying to reach Medicare age before a health crisis.

These luckless people, most in their 50s and 60s, have emerged this month as early winners under the nation’s new health insurance system. Along with their peers who are self-employed or whose jobs do not offer insurance, they have been signing up for coverage in large numbers, submitting new-patient forms at doctor’s offices and filling prescriptions at pharmacies.

“I just cried I was so relieved,” said Maureen Grey, a 58-year-old Chicagoan who finally saw a doctor this month after a fall in September left her in constant pain. Laid off twice from full-time jobs in the past five years, she saw her income drop from $60,000 to $17,800 a year.

Now doing temp work, she was uninsured for 18 months before she chose a marketplace plan for $68 a month.

Americans ages 55 to 64 make up 31 percent of new enrollees in the new health insurance marketplaces, the largest segment by age group, according to the federal government’s latest figures. They rep-

Republicans were in less of a mood to celebrate.

Furman said the economy is “undoubtedly in a stronger position” because it has grown for 11 straight months, although not at a pace that would be considered robust. Businesses have also added 8.5 million jobs since early 2010. Obama initially sold the stimulus as an investment that would produce a dramatic decrease in unemployment that ultimately did not materialize.

Unemployment remains high, at 6. 6 pe r ce nt i n Ja nu ar y , though it has fallen considerably since reaching double-digit highs early in Obama’s administration.

Moving the needle and leveling the playing field A4 Tuesday, February 18, 2014

OPINION

As I write this, House members were still nose-to-nose, haggling over the budget, and the Senate had begun the process. How is it, you might ask, that the two parties are stalled on what amounts to 1 or 2 percent of the total budget?

The education arguments by now look like deep ruts in a dirt road, the kind that wheels and water keep following because it’s difficult to do anything else. We’ve heard them in countless meetings, newspaper commentary, and legislative hearings. So I wasn’t expecting the House floor debate to be much different, and yet there were some points made that bear repeating.

House Minority Leader Don Bratton, R-Hobbs, reminded everyone that the state’s financial underpinnings are oil and gas, but hanging our hats on oil prices is precarious because the horizontal drilling and fracking that increased production here have

SHERRY ROBINSON

ALL SHE WROTE

increased production everywhere else. Supply and demand could tilt prices against us.

Employment growth in the state is inching along at 1 or 2 percent, so increasing the budget 4.8 percent doesn’t seem prudent to him.

Worthy arguments.

Bratton and his fellow Rs then said that Democrats have “owned the educational system for 50 years” and blamed the Ds because one third of our kids don’t graduate and half of those who do need remedial work in college. That’s a stretch, folks.

Roswell Daily Record

Ownership of those problems deserves to be spread around.

Rep. Patricia Lundstorm, DGallup, ran the education subcommittee of the House Appropriations and Finance Committee.

“I called the secretary and invited her to sit with us,” Lundstrom said in floor debate. “It’s like a scrum. Everybody has their ideas, and some of the new ideas were not really discussed fully.

They were not really brought forth until now.”

Lundstrom said she asked Public Education Secretary-designate Hanna Skandera how she would use the funding she sought, “and the response was, ‘We’ll figure it out.’ There’s not clear path for the funding.”

That led to charges by Dems that the administration wanted a blank check for Skandera and charges by Rs that Dems wanted a blank check for the districts.

But districts don’t exactly get a blank check; all above-the-line

money moves through the state’s education equalization formula, which Democratic education stalwarts adamantly defend.

The formula assures that all the state’s districts are treated fairly in budget allocations. It’s challenged from time to time (one challenger was Lundstrom’s own district), but in a state where resources can be thin, it’s been a pretty reliable way to apportion funding.

To Dems, steering money “below the line” to the Public Education Department, means skirting the funding formula. But Bratton and others argued that every administration, every education secretary, has the right to their programs. Maybe they’re successful, and maybe they’re not, but they have the right, he said.

“As a school administrator,” said Rep. Dennis Roch, R-Texico, “I understand the need for abovethe-line spending, but I also see

the need to move the needle.”

If I had a dime for every time somebody talked about “moving the needle,” I could buy myself a latte. “Moving the needle” has become to education what “leveling the playing field” is to business – a handy cliché that loses meaning with use.

To Republicans, moving the needle means handing more money to Skandera to invest in programs, which they fervently believe will work. To Democrats, moving the needle means early childhood education and funneling more money directly to districts.

Everybody has lofty intentions, but even the legislative process, where much gets hashed out in public, has proven resistant to compromise on this issue. Positions harden, like ruts in the road. By the time you read this, they will have crept toward an agreement or maybe high-centered. There is no easy exit.

EDITORIAL

In the battle of good and evil, a lot of people choose good

In a world of good and evil, humans are charitable and selfish. Common decency competes with self-interest and process.

Courage contrasts with cowardice. Consider two stories in the news.

A man collapsed in cardiac arrest Jan. 25 in Washington. To his potential fortune, 77year -old Medrick "Cecil" Mills was just across the street from a fire house. His daughter ran to the station and begged for help. Others joined her. Mills was fighting for his life, they explained. The man had moments to live. Please help. A paramedic or two could save him.

Mills did not survive. His daughter and others have gone public, insisting the firefighters would not be bothered to cross the street. Instead, based on news reports, they spoke of obedience to protocol. They needed an order from central dispatch before they would respond.

Furious, D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray calls the incident "an outrage." Fire Chief Kenneth Ellerbe and the mayor insist firefighters do not need to wait on dispatch before rendering aid. Heads are rolling at the firehouse, but nothing can restore the life that is lost.

Humans have battled good and bad, right and wrong, justice and injustice, life and death since the temptation of Adam.

We can find no shortage of behavior that causes or allows others to suffer and die. We can hang our heads about younger generations, choosing to believe humanity has chosen an irrecoverable state of decline. Or, we can take an honest assessment of the world around us and give thanks.

As millions seek God this weekend, they should remember to focus on acts of good that are often taken for granted. They should rejoice that good overwhelms evil, even when all seems lost.

Mills deserves justice and his story should be told. But remember this: Had firefighters responded, and saved his life, we would not know the story. Firefighters save lives each day. Airplanes take off and land safely; it's the occasional crash we hear about. Families, charities and volunteers provide food shelter and clothing to the poor and homeless each day. It's the person who falls through the cracks — the rare individual who suffers in the street — who gets our attention.

Good is the norm, as most people sacrifice for others. Sometimes it gets our attention, which brings us to story two.

Three days after Mills collapsed, another plea was made for help. An Alabama hospital called Dr. Zenko Hrynkiw for emergency brain surgery on a patient with a traumatic brain injury. Hrynkiw was the only brain surgeon in the vicinity of Birmingham's Trinity Medical Center during a violent winter storm. Because of the snow, Hrynkiw could not get more than a few blocks in his effort to respond. No one would blame him for getting stuck in a blizzard that killed five people. Cell service was poor. Just before it cut out, a hospital nurse heard the doctor say "I'm walking."

This was not a trek across the street. The 62-year -old walked more than 6 miles in deadly conditions to reach the patient. Protocol, personal safety and comfort did not enter his mind. It was one person putting another ahead of himself. The patient survived.

Culture bombards us with negativity, but we should not despair. All humans have the option to choose good. Most of them do.

Recycling for fun and profit: The imminent return of the ‘Clinton Scandals’ JOE CONASON CREATORS SYNDICATE

Hillary Clinton may well run for president in 2016. Or she may not. But while the nation awaits her decision, both jittery Republican politicians and titillated political journalists — often in concert — will seize upon any excuse to recycle those old “Clinton scandals.”

The latest trip around this endless loop began when Sen. Rand Paul, the Kentucky

Republican of extremist pedigree and nebulous appeal, deflected a question about his party’s “war on women” by yapping about Monica Lewinsky, the former “inappropriate” playmate of Bill Clinton.

Then the Free Beacon, a rightwing Washington tabloid, published some old papers about the “ruthless” Hillary and the “loony toon Monica” from the archives of the late Diane Blair, a longtime and intimate Arkansas friend of the Clintons.

Suddenly, the media frenzy of the ’90s resumed, as if there had never even been a pause.

What was truly bizarre in Paul’s outburst was his suggestion that somehow Hillary Clinton is implicated in the Lewinsky affair (which he and others have wrongly characterized as “harassment” or victimization of the young White House intern). Most voters will consider that kind of insinuation more repulsive than persuasive.

Still, there were other longrunning pseudo-scandals that featured Hillary Clinton. Are we doomed to revisit every crackpot allegation and conspiracy theory? Very likely so, if only because that brand of moonshine brought in wads and wads of money from the same credulous wingnuts who follow Fox News. Last week, many of them surely sent money to Paul or clicked on the Free Beacon.

is very likely (but not certain) he or she will develop the disease.

Testing for these genes is costly and is not usually covered by insurance. At this time, there is no treatment proven to prevent or slow the onset of Alzheimer’s disease.

However, some people want to know if they have one of these genes so they can use that information in planning for their future.

If one of my parents had developed early-onset Alzheimer’s, I would have wanted to know if I had inherited the gene. If so, I might have planned my career and my non-professional life differ-

ently. Fortunately, my parents did not develop this disease.

You also may choose to be tested. For you, like me, perhaps bad news is better than living with uncertainty. Or you may want the opportunity to enroll in trials for experimental treatments.

Everything I’ve said so far applies only to early-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Most cases of the disease start after age 60. We know of just one gene that is a reasonably strong predictor of this more typical form of Alzheimer’s: APOE. People who inherit two copies of the APOE4 type of

DEAR READER: Family history is indeed a risk factor for Alzheimer’s. If you have a parent or sibling with Alzheimer’s, you’re more likely to develop the disease than someone who does not have a close relative with this condition.

Genetics is most important in families with a history of early-onset Alzheimer’s (occurring between ages 30 and 60).

Gardeners interested in spring planting are invited to a free presentation tonight at 6 p.m. in the Roswell Public Library’s Bondurant Room. Sandra Barraza, Chaves County Extension agriculture agent, will share information on a variety of plants that have adapted to our area.

Although the season of spring is a month away, now is the time to determine what to grow, where and when to plant. Barraza’s topics will range from soil temperatures to cool season vs. warm season vegetables to ornamental and fruit trees. Not everyone was bor n with a “green thumb,” but both the Extension of fice and the Roswell Public Library, 301 N. Pennsylvania, provide a multitude of resources to aid in growing plants for beauty and for food.

The library’s gardening books may be found in the Children’s Room, in the Adult and Southwest collections and as an Ebook. Other resources are DVDs, magazine articles and computer databases purchased by the library, such as Ebsco, which includes the Hobbies & Crafts Reference. The library is open from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. on Monday and Tuesday, from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Wednesday through Saturday and from 2-6 p.m. on Sunday. Reference librarians are available to assist in locating books and information.

Book talk

The library contains many reading tables and chairs. In addition, three reading areas with

comfortable chairs are located next to a wall of windows that provide natural light and invite the reader to sit and peruse the books. One area is in the Children’s Room, another is next to the Teen Section, and the third is where the south and west walls meet in a corner that looks out on the “Tree of Knowledge” sculpture. On the south wall next to the reading corner is the Oversize Collection containing the larger or “coffee-table” type of books. This section is a treasure trove of graphics-heavy books that are both eye-pleasing and information-laden on a variety of subjects. Amanda Davis, reference librarian has selected a few oversize books that just wouldn’t be the same in a smaller format.

Christopher Cooper’s “Our Sun: Biography of a Star” is illustrated with large stunning photographs of the sun and other cosmic bodies from NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory that was launched on Feb. 11, 2010. “Our Sun” reveals the science behind the sun, including a graph breaking down the composition of the sun’s rays. The book traces the sun’s impact on human history beginning with ancient people, how they viewed or worshiped the sun and the gods they ascribed to the sun.

Explorers and their reasons for exploration include trading, searching for lands to colonize, scientific curiosity and missionary zeal. Alasdair Macleod’s “Explorers: Great Tales of Adventure and Endurance” tells the story of humanity’s explorations both on land and under water, including the obstacles that the courageous people faced. Macleod focuses on 50 of the world’s greatest explorers, along with shorter entries on 60 of their helpers and companions. These include women who traveled Arabia, an American who explored the Inca Ruins, the man who explored the oceans on a raft made of reed and papyrus, seekers of the source of the Nile River and many more. The book is filled with biographical information and first-person accounts in the explorers’ own words. There are also separate entries on their clothing, the scientific instruments and the use of the solar system. “Explorers” is written in association with the Royal Geographical Society and features exclusive color photography from the RGS archive, including pictures of artifacts, rare maps and specially commissioned artworks.

Only an oversize book is big enough to fully describe their tales of adventure and endurance.

His straight-forward approach to reference material is compiled into easily-navigable entries. The larger pages mean the encyclopedic-style entries can be supplemented by many different types of pictures; old photographs of the trains from the early 1900s, design sketches, pictures of how they evolved and where they sit now.

Written by an expert and illustrated with over 700 photographs, this is an exhaustive reference guide to the history of locomotives.

Night Before the Tooth Fairy,” “The Dinosaur Tooth Fairy,” “Little Bear Brushes His Teeth” or “Brush Your Teeth, Please.” The Tooth Fairy crafts will have kids assembling a necklace with precut paper teeth and beads and making a T -Rex mask to wear home. During the mor ning crafts, younger children will also decorate a headband with teeth and fairies. The afternoon crafts could also feature folding a precut paper treasure chest for the tooth money left by the Tooth Fairy.

The Saturday program of Fangs, Tusks and Teeth could focus on the stories of “Teeth and Tusks,” “Bedtime Bugs,” “Hippo Goes Bananas,” “The Night Before the Tooth Fairy” or “Tusk! Tusk!”

The related crafts might use precut animals with big teeth to decorate a spiral mobile, make a walrus mask or assemble a 3-D elephant.

February is National Children’s Dental Health Month, so what better topic for this week’s story and craft hours than teeth. The Wednesday story times begin at 10 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. highlighting Here Comes the Tooth Fairy.

Then on Saturday at 2 p.m., the theme will be Fangs, Tusks and Teeth. Children attending the story portion of the program are invited to be creative during the related craft session. The stories may vary between programs. All materials are provided, but the quantity of some craft items may be limited.

On Wednesday, the Here Comes the Tooth Fairy storytimes could feature the books “The

SANTA FE — All 16 Republicans in the Senate chamber voted against changing the State’s Constitution to require businesses to pay an increase in the statewide minimum each year based on a cost of living increase. According to Senate floor testimony, the minimum wage could increase from $7.50 to up to $8.25 the first year.

Republicans on the Senate floor said a minimum

wage should not be placed in the State Constitution.

They also said the decisions regarding minimum wages should be made at the local level because economic conditions vary throughout the state.

The chairman of the Senate Finance Committee also voted against Senate Joint Resolution 13/s- Annually Increasing Minimum Wage.

The vote was 17 against and 24 in favor.

the APOE gene are at much higher risk for developing Alzheimer’s compared with people who have no copies of the gene.

However, most authorities do not recommend getting tested for the APOE4 gene. That’s because the gene does not provide a solid answer. If you inherit two copies of the gene, you may still avoid Alzheimer’s. And if you inherit no copies, you may still get it. Nevertheless, some people want to know if they are at increased risk. I have not had myself tested for this gene.

Human genetics has developed enormously in

the past 30 years. In the 1980s, few scientists imagined that we would discover the structure of every human gene in their lifetime, or even their children’s lifetime.

But we have. And we have identified thousands of genes that are linked to particular diseases.

However, this information has not yet led to many highly accurate predictions of what diseases a person is at high risk for, or to many cures. In tomorrow’s column, I’ll explain why.

The Clintons are still big box office in the mainstream media as well. Our historical amnesia will make the old charges against them sound new again. And if there’s a sucker born every minute, a lot of minutes have passed since they left the White House.

To prepare for the coming tsunami of bull-bleep, a brief guide to past scandals may prove useful.

Then when another lightweight politician or television personality starts spouting about Whitewater or Filegate or Travelgate — about which he or she actually knows approximately nothing — pertinent facts will be available. (For the longer

version, with colorful narrative, consult “The Hunting of the President.”)

WHITEWATER: Kenneth Starr spent roughly millions of dollars trying to find evidence of chicanery in a land deal that lost money for the Clintons — and his probe ended up demonstrating their innocence, like several earlier investigations. Having whispered to gullible journalists that he was about to indict Hillary in December 1996, Starr instead abruptly resigned as independent counsel in February 1997, knowing he had no case against her.

Indeed, the Clintons have undergone more thorough and invasive financial vetting than any couple in American history, from the exhaustive Starr investigation through Hillary’s Senate financial disclosures to

the Clinton Foundation donors disclosed before her nomination as Secretary of State.

TRAVELGATE: Feverish coverage of Hillary Clinton’s firing of several White House employees who handled press travel arrangements neglected some salient facts — such as the suspicious absence of accounting records for millions of dollars expended by the White House Travel Office, the Travel Office director’s offer to plead guilty to embezzlement, and evidence that he had accepted lavish gifts from an air charter company. The first lady and her staff didn’t handle the controversy skillfully, but she had plenty of reason to suspect chicanery. And again, exhaustive investigation found no intentional wrongdoing by her.

FILEGATE: Sensational accusations that Hillary Clinton had ordered up FBI background files to target political opponents soon became a Republican and media obsession, with respectable figures warning that Filegate would be the Clintons’ Watergate.

“Where’s the outrage?” cried Bob Dole, the 1996 Republican presidential nominee. Starr investigated the matter and found no evidence of wrongdoing. Finally, in 2010, a Reagan-appointed federal judge mockingly dismissed a civil lawsuit based on the allegations, saying “there’s no there there.”

In truth, there never was.

ENMMC Senior Circle members have the spirit!

BUSINESS REVIEW

Roswell Daily Record

The Eastern New Mexico Medical Center chapter of Senior Circle has more than 4,000 members and what great members they are!

“With so many members, we couldn’t manage without our volunteers,” Marifrank said Senior DaHarb, Circle director. “We have several who devote a half day a week doing whatever needs to be done answering the phone, helping walk-ins, doing mailings,” she said.

“But we also have volunteers for special things such as staffing tables at health fairs and labeling our newsletters for mailing!”

But Senior Circle does much more than provide a workplace for people who volunteer! Open Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., the organization offers many activities.

Aerobics classes are held at 9 a.m. four days a week, with line dancing on the fifth day. Two different yoga classes are held each week. Tai Chi is offered twice a week, and our most popular exercise class, Strong Bones, is held three times a week. That class helps keep osteo-

porosis at bay and can even improve it!

A movie is shown Monday every pop(including corn!). There’s a monthly book club, two health talks a month, usually featuring a physician.

Those talks are open to the public and there are always refreshments.

“We have a nurse here on Wednesdays to take blood pressure and administer free flu shots during flu season,” DaHarb said. “The vaccine and supplies are provided by the hospital.”

said DaHarb activities for “mental health” are offered too, including meeting for lunch once a week, offering craft activities and classes and a monthly birthday party.

Also, Senior Circle has five computers up and running on the Internet that members are welcome to come in and use during office hours. Cindy Bolin is Senior Circle’s computer guru and she’s also a Notary Public offering free Notary services to members as well as copying and faxing.

“We have a choral group directed by Vonnie Goss.

They’re wonderful and seem to be having a great time.

They rehearse at 10:30 Tuesday mornings and could use more singers, especially men!

They usually perform at our monthly birthday parties and sometimes go out to retirement homes to entertain.

“Senior Circle’s trips are very popular,” DaHarb said.

“For the rest of this year, there are trips to San Antonio, Australia Texas; and New Zealand; and California for the Tournament of Roses. And we’re considering a trip to Branson, Missouri.”

Eric King, left, who turned 100 January 13, takes youngster Hubert Blount under his wing. Hubert is only 90 as of January 25.

DaHarb said people interested in trips do not have to be Senior Circle members, or even seniors.

Senior Circle is a resource of Eastern New Mexico Medical Center for people in the area age 50 or older. Nationwide, there are 120 chapters in 29 states and more than 100,000 members. ENMMC’s chapter, which celebrates its 15th anniversary in April, is the largest in the nation.

Since Senior Circle is sponsored by the hospital, there are benefits at the hospital such as a free upgrade to a private room if one is available and a daily free meal for the spouse or caregiver. And one of the most popular features is the Senior

Most of the discounts are unique to Senior Circle members.

DaHarb said membership in Senior Circle is just $15 a year or $27 for two people in the same household.

DaHarb said. “Of course, meals out and trips are paid by members.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You will be full of fun as you seek to make a change, but a partner might not feel the same way. This person will view this adjustment more seriously. Relate to a loved one directly. A chat might not solve a problem, but it will show your compassion.

Tonight: Try not to push so hard.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

CINCINNATI (AP) — The Cincinnati surgeon who wrote the book on saving choking victims through his namesake Heimlich maneuver has now penned a new book: his memoir.

Dr. Henry Heimlich’s views on how the maneuver should be used and on other innovations he has created or proposed have put him at odds with some in the health field.

But he hopes his recently published memoir will preserve the technique that has cleared obstructions from windpipes of choking victims around the world for four decades and made his name a household word.

“I know the maneuver saves lives, and I want it to be used and remembered,” the 94-year -old retired chest surgeon told The Associated Press this month. “I felt I had to have it down in print so the public will have the correct information.”

Much of his autobiography — “Heimlich’s Maneuvers: My Seventy Years of Lifesaving Innovation” — focuses on the maneuver, which involves thrusts to the abdomen that apply upward pressure on the diaphragm to create an air flow forcing food or other objects out of the windpipe.

Heimlich says thousands of deaths reported annually from choking prompted him in 1972 to seek a solution. Over the next two years, leading a team of researchers at Jewish Hospital in Cincinnati, he successfully tested the technique by putting a tube with a balloon at one end down an anesthetized dog’s airway until it choked. He then used the maneuver to force the dog to expel the obstruction.

“By 1974, I knew I needed to get the maneuver to the public as soon as possible to save lives,” he said.

He appeared on radio and television shows including “Good Morning America” and “The Late Show Starring Johnny Carson” and started hearing from people who had used the maneuver or been saved by it.

The maneuver made headlines again this month. Clint Eastwood was attending a golf event in Monterey, Calif., when the 83-year-old actor saw the tournament director choking on a piece of cheese and successfully performed the technique.

“The best thing about it is that it allows anyone to save a life,” Heimlich said.

Anne Jutt of Mason, a Cincinnati suburb, said Heimlich will always

be a hero to her family. She used the maneuver last spring when her 6-year -old son was choking on a cherry tomato.

“I was scared of hurting him, but he was starting to get limp,” she said. “I put everything I had into it, and the tomato flew out like a bullet.”

Heimlich points with pride to some of his other innovations, such as a chest drain valve credited by some with saving soldiers and civilians during the Vietnam War. But he has drawn sharp criticism for his theory that injecting patients with a curable form of malaria could trigger immunity in patients with the HIV virus that causes AIDS. Medical experts have said injecting patients with malaria would be dangerous and have criticized Heimlich for conducting studies involving malariotherapy on HIV patients in China.

Heimlich mostly brushes off criticism about his work.

“I’ll be the first to admit that a number of my ideas are controversial and in some ways unorthodox,” Heimlich said. “But I have enough guts to know that when I am right, it will come about as the thing to do, even if others do the wrong thing for a time.”

SOLID GOLD

ICE DANCERS

SOCHI, Russia (AP) — Through 17 years of grueling practices, of defeats and victories, Meryl Davis and Charlie White insist they’ve never considered parting ways.

A perfect pairing, they were nearly flawless at the Sochi Olympics, and on Monday they became the first Americans to win an ice dance gold medal.

“The closest we came to breaking up, I can’t pinpoint one because there hasn’t been one,” Davis, 27, said. “Certainly there have been struggles. It hasn’t been easy to get where we are. ... It’s a partnership which I couldn’t have asked for more.

“Charlie and I are very different. We used those difference to balance it out. There has never been a moment of doubt.”

Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir of Canada, the 2010 champions, took silver, while bronze went to Russia’s Elena Ilinykh and Nikita Katsalapov.

Davis and White won silver in Vancouver, but in the four years since, they have overtaken the Canadians, their training partners in Detroit under Russian coach Marina Zoueva.

The reigning world champs scored 116.63 points in the free dance to finish with 195.52, 4.53 ahead of Virtue and Moir.

“No athletes like it to sit in this position,” Moir said. “We came here to win the competition. But it’s easier when we see them and know how hard these guys work.”

When their program to “Sheherazade” ended with White on a knee, Davis rested her head on his

Roper’s 23 U.S. women beat Sweden, reach championship not enough for Broncos WOMEN’S HOCKEY

SOCHI, Russia (AP) — The work began before the U.S. women’s hockey team reached the medal round, before it arrived in Sochi, before the roster was even selected.

Four years ago, the Americans left the Olympics with a silver medal. And Julie Chu was determined to be back.

“When that buzzer goes off and it erupted in the arena and we fell short of our goal of being the best in the world, that hurts,” the four-time Olympian said after the United States beat Sweden 6-1 on Monday to reach the gold medal game in Sochi. “The last four years, that’s been our goal.”

Megan Bozek and Brianna Decker each had a goal and two assists, and the Americans outshot Sweden 70-9 to clinch no worse than a silver medal. The U.S. has medaled in every Winter Games since women’s hockey was added in 1998, and just once — with a loss to Sweden in the 2006 semifinals — failed to reach the

Holcomb, Langton win bronze

KRASNAYA POLYANA, Russia (AP) — The first thing Steven Holcomb noticed when he crossed the finish line Monday night was that the Russian fans were wildly cheering.

Not a good sign, the USA-1 pilot figured.

The next second felt like forever.

Had he medaled? Had he blown it?

He had no idea. But as his sled slowed to a stop, friendly, joyous faces — people clad in red, white and blue — came into view.

“I saw the flood of Americans coming up and over the wall,” Holcomb said, “and that’s when I knew.”

Victory was not his. But he’d ended another 62-year drought for U.S. bobsledding, and that was more than enough. Holcomb and Steve Langton won the bronze medal in two-man bobsledding at the Sochi

Games, the first Olympic medal by an American sled in the event since 1952.

By now, 62 must be Holcomb’s favorite number. His four-man gold medal at the Vancouver Games also snapped a 62-year U.S. drought in that race.

“If there’s anybody who needs a 62-year drought broken, give me a call and I’ll try to help you out,” Holcomb said.

Russia’s Alexander Zubkov and Alexey Voevoda won the gold in a dominant home-ice show, beating the Swiss team of Beat Hefti and Alex Baumann by 0.66 seconds. Holcomb, of Park City, Utah, and Langton, of Melrose, Mass., were another 0.22

LEVELLAND, Texas — Marcus Roper scored a game-high 23 points, but it wasn’t enough for New Mexico Military Institute on Monday.

South Plains handed the Broncos their 11th conference loss of the season, 60-50, at the Texan Dome.

The Texans built a 33-26 halftime lead, but NMMI made things interesting midway through the second half.

The Broncos (12-13, 2-11 WJCAC) turned a 44-38 deficit into a 46-45 advantage with an 8-1 run over a 3 1⁄2 minute stretch. Dane Williams provided the capper for that run with 8:26 left with a steal and a runout layup that gave NMMI its first lead since the 9:16 mark of the first half.

South Plains answered in a big way, rattling off a 14-2 run over the next 5

Karrie Webb captures fifth Women’s Australian Open title SPORTS

MELBOURNE, Australia (AP) — Karrie Webb won the Women’s Australian Open for the fifth time Sunday, shooting a 4under 68 in the final round to beat Chella Choi by one stroke.

Webb birdied the 18th hole to take the outright lead, then watched as Choi, who shot a course-record 62 on Saturday to take a share of the third-round lead, pushed a 10-foot putt wide of the hole at 18 to miss the chance for a playoff.

Webb, who clinched her 40th LPGA title, finished at 12-under 276 overall. She previously won the Australian Open in 2000, 2002, 2007 and 2008.

“I got off to a great start and I just did a great job mentally today,” Webb said. “I can’t think of another time when I held myself together as well as that.”

The win marked a remarkable change of fortune for the No. 8-ranked Australian, who was disqualified from last week’s Australian Ladies Masters after signing an

incorrect scorecard. She had been the defending champion at the event.

Webb started five shots off the lead Sunday, but made six birdies and only two bogeys as the other leading challengers struggled in a strong wind on the Victoria Golf Club course.

Choi had played 14 holes and was at 11 under when Webb finished her round, leaving the Australian with an anxious wait to see whether her score would hold up. But the South Korean, who had two eagles and six birdies in her record-setting third round, couldn’t make a birdie on the back nine Sunday.

World No. 2 Suzann Pettersen of Norway faltered in her bid to take over the top ranking from South Korea’s Inbee Park.

Pettersen, who started the day three shots off the pace in fourth place, needed to finish first or second to pass Park, but had three double bogeys in a final round 80 to drop back into a tie for 28th.

back in exhausted elation. The two started skating together in 1997 in Michigan, and on the biggest day of their career, they performed just as they had visualized it.

“That in itself justified 17 years of hard work,” White, 26, said.

The music swelling over the final minute of the program, their feet were in nonstop motion, yet every step was intricately choreographed. Their lifts were a blur as White spun across the ice with Davis held aloft, their movements

and expressions still fierce despite the draining demands of the performance.

As they told the story of the Persian king and the woman who enchants him, White was regal in purple velvet, Davis beguiling in a lavender dress with jewels shimmering on her midriff.

They now have one medal of each color after winning bronze in the new team event in Sochi, the first American figure skaters to own three.

Virtue and Moir had become the first North American ice dance gold medalists at their home Olympics in Vancouver.

Their free dance to Russian classical music told the story of their

seconds back, finishing just 0.03 seconds ahead of another Russian sled in the race for bronze.

“Man, thank God,” said Holcomb, who raced through a strained left calf that required treatment Sunday and Monday. “There was a lot of pressure on me there.”

Holcomb needed 45 minutes of treatment after racing Sunday night before he could emerge for interviews, and it was clear the team was worried about his leg. Langton said he and Holcomb didn’t even discuss

own partnership, which also stretches back to 1997.

In a performance at times tender and at others triumphant, Moir kissed her hand at the start and again throughout the program.

“I think there is relief,” Moir said. “It has been a journey to get here since 2010, a lot of sleepless nights to get to the Olympic Games. If I could only have been that 22-year-old at Vancouver.

“The reason we stayed in is we wanted a different journey. Now, the pressures of this game are just melting away.”

Ilinykh and Katsalapov were just ninth at last year’s world championships but are now the

the injury on Monday. Langton just knew Holcomb was going to show up and do his job, one way or another.

“Best driver in the world,” Langton said, pointing across a room toward Holcomb. “The best. That guy.”

Zubkov had the home-ice edge.

Hefti has long been one of the best two-man drivers. And for quite some time, Holcomb has been fighting to dispel the notion that he’s only truly elite when racing on the North American tracks he knows best.

He debunked that theory Monday.

Olympic championship game.

Canada, a three-time defending champion that has played in every Olympic final, will have a chance for a fourth gold in a row after a 3-1 victory over Switzerland later Monday. Not since the inaugural tournament in Nagano have the Americans beaten Canada, losing in the championship game in 2002 and 2010 and again in the preliminary round of the Sochi Games on Wednesday.

There are 11 players on the U.S. roster who played in the final in Vancouver, but Chu is the only one who was also on the team in Salt Lake City or Turin. She has two silver medals and a bronze.

And coach Katey Stone would like to see her get it.

“It’s about time isn’t it? It’s time,” said Stone, who was also Chu’s coach at Harvard.

“Julie’s been everything to the program, she’s been a youngster, she’s been a veteran ... she’s been a mother to the younger kids. Kids like that don’t come around all the time. She’s a special one. I certainly hope she gets what she wants.”

In goal, Jesse Vetter needed just eight saves for the victory.

The U.S. scored five times in 47 shots on starting goalie Valentina Wallner before she was replaced in the second period by Kim Martin Hasson. The backup was the winning goaltender when Sweden upset the Americans in Turin, and she stopped 22 of 23 shots.

Eastern Conference wins All-Star game

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — The Eastern Conference finally stopped Kevin Durant and Blake Griffin — then stopped their losing streak at the NBA All-Star game.

Kyrie Irving had 31 points and 14 assists and was voted the game’s MVP, Carmelo Anthony made an All-Star record eight 3pointers and scored 30

and Alex Shibutani, finished eighth and ninth.

Russia has won 18 of 33 medals in ice dance’s Olympic history, but now North Americans own two straight golds. Virtue and Moir have said they’ll likely retire. For Davis and White, talk of the future can wait until this historic victory starts feeling real.

“We wanted to fight for the best performance we could give and we did that. You dream of this for so long, work so hard, and they worked hard, too,” White said, referring to Virtue and Moir.

“They always have been with us, pushing us, and we couldn’t have done it without them.”

She’s only 19; he’s 22. The home fans started cheering when the first few notes of “Swan Lake” played for their free dance, and they were roaring when it ended with Katsalapov collapsed on his knees and Ilinykh weeping.

“The program builds and builds and builds,” Katsalapov said through a translator, “and the audience gave us energy to keep building it more and more.”

France’s Nathalie Pechalat and Fabian Bourzat were fourth, 6.26 points out of bronze. The other U.S. teams, Madison Chock and Evan Bates and siblings Maia

tions in which he’s never trained, facing a 62-year drought — and he delivered.

Great U.S. drivers such as Brian Shimer and Todd Hays tried in recent years to be the streakbusters, coming close but never getting over the final hump. So maybe it was fitting that one of the first people Holcomb embraced when that mob of love reached his sled was Shimer, who simply beamed.

“Holcy’s the man,” USA-2 pilot Cory Butner said, “and he proved it again.”

Holcomb and Langton gave the U.S. its fourth sliding medal so far at the Sochi Games.

B4 Tuesday, February 18, 2014 DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: You were wrong to advise “Starting Anew in Ohio” (Nov. 7), the mother of a 10-year-old girl who wanted the bigger bedroom in their new house, to have her kids draw straws. When the girl made the request, her older brother said he didn’t care. The time to have drawn straws was when the girl first made the request, not two months afterward.

The girl is at an age when children can be particularly sensitive about trust issues, and the boy is old enough to know that words have consequences. If the parents reverse course now, the girl will learn that her parents’ promises mean nothing,

and the boy will learn that he doesn’t have to worry about what he says because he can always change it later.

These are not good lessons to teach children. That the father would bow to the boy’s request made the situation worse. Maybe he’d think twice if he realized his daughter will now always doubt his word.

JUDY IN OHIO

DEAR JUDY: You are not the only reader who told me my answer wasn’t up to my usual standards. In fact, not a single person who wrote to comment agreed with me, and their points were valid.

Their comments:

DEAR ABBY: Your solution won’t keep the peace in that household; it will end it. The daughter will learn her parents can’t be trusted to keep a promise; the son will think he can take anything he wants from his sister because, as the male, he gets his way.

No, Abby, a promise is a promise.

And if there’s any lesson more important to teach our children, I can’t imagine what it is.

HOLLY IN PENNSYLVANIA

COMICS

DEAR ABBY: This is the time to teach that 12year-old “young man” to be a man of his word. He made the decision that his sister could have the room. The daughter had the guts to ask for what she wanted. Good for her for asking for what she wants. Now they should draw straws to determine the outcome?

The message this sends to the children is, “If you’re older, you can get what you want. If you make a promise, you can break it.” The daughter should not lose out on what she was promised.

DANIELLE IN WISCONSIN

DEAR ABBY: May I offer a suggestion? The children should be told that each year around the anniversary of their moving to the new house that they will change rooms. It may take some effort and energy, but the benefit would be that both brother and sister get to experience the larger bedroom.

It will teach them to compromise.

TAMI IN COLORADO DEAR ABBY: Having been through this type of situation as a child, I can tell you it

destroyed my trust in my mother.

Believe me, this will have far-reaching and unintended repercussions in that little girl’s life. A promise is a promise!

CANDACE IN THE ROCKIES HHHHH

Family Circus

DEAR ABBY: Whatever happened to respect for your elders? None of my six nieces and nephews has ever called me “Uncle Sam,” nor have any of their children called me “Mr. B.” When the 5-year -old called me “Sammy,” a name I loathe, I nearly snapped. Am I out of line?

SAM IN SHEFFIELD, MASS. DEAR SAM: If “Uncle Sam” is what you prefer to be called, you should have made that clear to your siblings when the nieces and nephews were little. Children are imitative. If their parents call you and refer to you as just plain Sam, don’t blame the children for doing the same. I don’t know how old the kids are now, but it may be a little late for you to start complaining about this.

FROM HELOISE

KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Heloise: With all the identity theft, should I SIGN THE BACK OF MY CREDIT CARDS or not?

Janice W., via email

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

Yes, you should sign credit cards, even if there is concern that someone might practice your signature and then use the card. Credit-card companies tell retailers not to accept the card for use if it is not signed, so if you want to be sure you can use it, you’d better sign it.

Merchants can ask you to sign the card in front of them (if it is not signed when you hand it to them) and then produce another form of ID with a matching signature. If you refuse, the credit card may be declined for payment.

Heloise

Dilbert

For Better or For Worse

P.S.: You can add the words “Check ID” by your signature and hope retailers will look at the back of the card, see those words and ask for it, but it is no guarantee.

HHHHH Dear Heloise: On a recent trip, I stayed at a hotel that has a little fast-food type restaurant in the lobby.

My hint is to make sure you check the operating hours. Some of these hotel “restaurants” will shut down for a few hours between mealtimes and may close early on Sundays. Saves you the surprise of finding out they are closed when you need a meal!

K.W., A Traveler From Texas

How right you are! I’ve been stuck in the same situation, but I always carry some peanuts or granola in my carry-on bag. They have saved me a few times when nothing was open.

Heloise

HHHHH Dear Readers: Do you have any torn or ripped stamps? Good news — these may be salvageable. Mail is put through machines that automatically check for a valid stamp. If a stamp is torn or ripped, the machine might not recognize it. It then is checked manually and will be sent back if not valid. However, a little tear should not make much of a difference. When in doubt, call the post office and ask.

Heloise

Garfield

Hagar the Horrible

Snuffy Smith

HHHHH Dear Heloise: Here is a helpful hint for the kitchen sink at cleanup time that my husband, Henry, came up with. When the daily newspaper is delivered, we save the plastic sleeve (bag) that it comes in, in a box in the laundry room.

When we are prepping for dinner, we place the bag in a corner of the sink and drop all scraps into it.

When finished, we tie it up neatly and toss it into the garbage can.

No fuss, no mess and no smell.

The Andersons, Neptune, N.J.

Dear Heloise: When putting on rain boots over several pairs of socks during cold, wet weather, use a plastic grocery or produce bag as your last layer before putting on your boots. They will slide more easily into the boot and make the boot easier to get off.

Next up: TV ads just for you, dear voter

WASHINGTON (AP) — The days when political campaigns would try to make inroads with demographic groups such as soccer moms or white working-class voters are gone. Now, the operatives are targeting specific individuals.

And, in some places, they can reach those individuals directly through their televisions.

Welcome to Addressable TV, an emerging technology that allows advertisers — Senate hopefuls and insurance companies alike — to pay some broadcasters to pinpoint specific homes.

Advertisers have long bought ads knowing that only a fraction of the audience was likely to respond to them. Allowing campaigns — political or not — to finely hone their TV pitches to individuals could let them more efficiently spend their advertising dollars.

“With a traditional TV buy you can end up paying for a lot of eyeballs you don’t care about,” said Chauncey McLean, chief operating officer of the Analytics Media Group, an ad and data fir m.

“Addressable TV is a powerful tool for those that are equipped to use it. If you know who you want to talk to and what you want to say, you can be much more precise.”

Data geeks look at everything from voting histories to demographics, magazine subscriptions to credit scores, all in the hopes of identifying their target audience. The advertiser then hands over a list of targets and, without the viewer necessarily realizing it, the ads pop on when viewers sit down to watch a program if their broadcaster has the technology.

“This is the power of a 30-second television commercial with the precision of a piece of direct mail targeted to the individual household level,” said Paul Guyardo, chief revenue officer at DirecTV. “Never before have advertisers had that level of precision when it came to a 30-second commercial.”

The level of precision on televisions has long been a dream for political campaigns, which are decided by relatively small groups

of voters. President Barack Obama’s campaign in 2012 experimented with it on a small scale, but too few homes were in broadcasting systems equipped to handle house-by-house decisions.

But earlier this year, DirecTV and Dish Network announced a partnership that would allow political clients to reach into about 20 million households by matching up customers’ identities with their satellite receiver, much like a telephone number rings at a specific handset.

At the same time, NBC and parent company Comcast are opening the door for advertisers to target specific households using video-on-demand services in 20 million more households.

The communications giant is not yet ready to implement the targeting during live broadcasts, though.

And GroupM, which handles

about one-third of the world’s ad buys, recently formed a division to handle such addressable advertising.

“We can send different commercials to different households based on what we know about these people. Instead of one message per state, it could be 12 messages per state,” said Michael Bologna, GroupM’s director of emerging communications and president of the newly formed Modi Media.

The broadcast companies are expected to be able to charge more per viewer than for other ad orders, but in exchange advertisers get a greater confidence that their message is finding its target.

For instance, Allstate has used such an approach to weed out homeowners when it is pitching rental insurance on some broadcast systems.

Such specific political outreach

has been possible for years as strategists buy, build and scour detailed data on each home to determine whether it is worth the time to knock on a door, to register a voter or to phone them to remind them to cast a ballot.

In recent years, Democrats have built an advantage on that data front.

The Republican National Committee has made catching up a priority, saying it would focus on data this year and leave advertising to outside groups. The RNC has announced one effort, branded Para Bellum Labs, to help the party build its list of likely supporters for races up and down the ballot.

The RNC has a lot of catching up to do. Obama’s two presidential campaigns had a better grasp of the data.

Last year, Democrats built on those abilities in Virginia’s guber-

natorial contest. Strategists there used technology that pointed to specific individuals for a knock on the door, a call on the phone or an ad on their social networks.

It wasn’t immediately clear to those Virginia voters that they were getting more attention than their neighbors. But behind the scenes, Democratic candidate Terry McAuliffe’s advisers were going after just a few thousand voters. For instance, his strategists pinpointed 494,000 voters and flooded them with Facebook messages criticizing McAuliffe’s rival, Ken Cuccinelli.

“It’s a shift from identifying groups to identifying people,” said Andrew Bleeker, president and CEO of Bully Pulpit Interactive, the main firm advising McAuliffe on digital strategy.

‘Lego Movie’ won’t leggo of top spot LOS ANGELES (AP) — “The Lego Movie” built a huge lead on top of the weekend’s new releases at the box office.

In its second outing, the Warner Bros. animated film featuring the voices of Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks and Will Arnett earned $48.8 million to take first place, according to studio estimates Sunday. That brings the film based on the toy brick-building franchise’s domestic box office total to $129.1 million, cementing it was one of the biggest blockbusters of the year.

“It’s crossing over to all audiences,” said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for box-office tracker Rentrak. “It’s not just a kids’ movie. There’s something for boys, girls and adults, as well. The likeability is astronomical. That across-the-board appeal is giving ‘The Lego Movie’ unstoppable momentum, even in a weekend loaded with new competitors.”

“The Lego Movie” earned an additional $27.7 million from 42 international territories, including the United Kingdom, Holland, Sweden and Norway. The worldwide total box office for “Lego Movie” now stands at $180.3 million.

Sony’s romantic comedy “About Last Night” starring Kevin Hart and Michael Ealy

came in second place with $27 million. The strong showing further demonstrated Hart’s clout as a box-office draw. The actor-comedian’s other film, the buddy-cop comedy “Ride Along” with Ice Cube, nabbed $8.8 million in its fifth weekend to take the sixth spot at the box office.

“I don’t think there’s anyone funnier out there today than Kevin Hart,” said Rory Bruer, head of distribution for Sony. “He’s at the top, and he couldn’t be a nicer or more hardworking guy. He got out there and promoted ‘About Last Night’ really, really hard.

The chemistry that he brings to the table is just infectious. You can’t help but wanna take the ride with him.”

The action-packed “RoboCop” reboot from Sony and MGM featuring Joel Kinnaman, Gary Oldman and Michael Keaton captured third place with $21.5 million. The update to the original 1987 sci-fi film starring Peter Weller as a robotic officer performed better overseas, earning $35 million from 37 international markets, including France, Australia and Germany.

The weekend’s other new releases, Universal’s coming-of-age drama “Endless Love” and the Warner Bros. novel adaptation “Winter’s Tale,” respectively earned the fifth

and seventh spots at the box office. “Endless Love,” starring Alex Pettyfer and Gabriella Wilde, wooed $13.4 million, while the Colin Farrell drama “Winter’s Tale” made a chilly $7.8 million.

Estimated ticket sales for Friday through Sunday at U.S. and Canadian theaters, according to Rentrak. Where available, latest international numbers are also included.

Final domestic figures will be released Tuesday.

1. “The Lego Movie,” $48.8 million ($27.7 million international).

2. “About Last Night,” $27 million.

3. “RoboCop,” $21.5 million ($35 million international).

4. “The Monuments Men,” $15 million ($8.9 million international).
