Health care debate shifts to states

WASHINGTON (AP) — True or false: States suing to overturn core requirements of President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul are refusing to carry out the law. If you said “true,” you’d be wrong. Republican state legislators and governors are working on how to deliver coverage to more than 30 million people now uninsured, as the law calls for, even as GOP attorneys general lead the legal battle to overturn the law’s mandate that most Americans have health insurance. The result? Perhaps the first practical opportunity for the two political parties to work together on an issue that divides them in Washington.

“I can be philosophically opposed and recognize that we can’t be asleep at the switch,” said Alabama state Rep. Greg Wren, a Republican playing a national role. “I for one have no interest in ceding any regulatory or statutory authority to the federal government in this area and allowing our state to default while we pursue the litigation side,” said Wren, co-chairman of a National Conference of State Legislatures task force on the health care remake. The debate in the nation’s capital seems headed for a stalemate this year because Senate Democrats have the votes to thwart House Republicans’ efforts to repeal the law. Denying the Obama administration money to carry out the law

isn’t a sure strategy either; most of the money was woven tightly into the legislation Congress passed last year. “We will see a lot of small battles in Congress, but the real center of gravity will shift to the states,” said Mike Leavitt, former Republican governor of Utah and health secretary under President George W. Bush. “Bipartisanship is more vibrant in the states than it is in Washington. That doesn’t mean it’s plentiful, but at least it’s alive.” States have to be ready to take on major responsibilities when the coverage expansion gets going in 2014. If not, the federal government will come in and run things. States must set up and operate health insurance markets where

an estimated 24 million people eventually will buy private coverage, most with the aid of federal subsidies. Also, states must open their Medicaid programs to a broader segment of low-income people. The Medicaid expansion worries state of ficials. They’re already struggling with the costs of the program, draining money from other services from education to law enforcement. Special added Medicaid payments that Washington funneled to the states in the economic downturn will end this year, worsening the crunch. About 16 million newly eligible

Local author Donald Burleson, a UFO investigator, appeared at the Roswell Public Library, Saturday afternoon, to discuss his controversial book “UFOs and the Murder of Marilyn Monroe.” He proposes that the government murdered Monroe by lethal injection because she knew too much about the Roswell UFO coverup. And he has the CIA documents to prove it. Well, maybe not. The Roswell Daily Record sat down with the author to talk about his evidence. Here’s an excerpt:

Donald Burleson: There had been a CIA memo circulating for several years at the time that I did (“UFOs and the Murder of Marilyn Monroe”). Basically, (the memo was) talking about how Marilyn’s house was being wiretapped and how they were con-

ce r n ed a bou t h er k e ep in g a diary and the Kennedys telling her things that were ... Well, things maybe that they shouldn’t have been telling her. Things, in fact, that were classified in some cases. Of course she had af f a ir s wi th bo th B o bby a nd Jack Kennedy which was pretty well known. Their wives even kn ew ab ou t it . A nd I g ot intrigued with that memo and decided to start to really look into it some more, and so I went looking for investigative work that other people had done on Marilyn, like Donald Wolfe, for example, who had done a really good study of Marilyn Monroe’s last days. And there was definitely something, from his viewpoint, there was definitely something shady about the whole way she died, even though they passed it off as a suicide. Roswell Daily Record: You assert in the book that she didn’t kill herself.

DB: Oh, absolutely. And, in fact, Donald Wolfe came to that conclusion because he looked at the toxicology reports, and he did a lot of good leg work on this thing. But he never made the connection. He even had a copy of that memo in the back of his book, but he never made the connection about what it really said because it has a clear reference in there to UFO-related things and I guess, maybe, he just didn’t want to get into that. I even wrote to him and asked him why didn’t you pursue that? I mean, after all, it’s right there in the memo. You got the memo in an appendix, and he never even answered me. RDR: But you decided to pursue it. DB: Yeah. Basically, I’ve been a UFO investigator for so long that my hands are already dirty. I d o n’ t h a ve t o w or r y ab ou t

A special school district general obligation bond election will be held this upcoming summer in August, Roswell school officials say. According to school district bond r eports, the bond will allow continuation of the remodeling or replacement of four elementary schools already approved by the Public School Capital Outlay Council — a state body which provides grant money to schools based on need. The bond would also allow for remodeling of two high schools, Roswell and Goddar d, and Parkview Early Literary Center without financial assistance from the PSCOC. Superintendent of the Roswell Independent School District Michael Gottlieb said passage of the bond would help bring school buildings and facilities up to code and current safety standards without raising property taxes. Gottlieb noted that all 19 schools in the district have asbestos (although it was recently eradicated from three schools), only two schools have secur e entrances and other schools have antiquated heating and cooling systems. The four elementary schools that would benefit fr om the bond passage ar e Berr endo (total r emodeling cost: $9,880,371 with $7,113,867 from PSCOC), Military Heights (total r emodeling cost: $7,411,839 with $5,336,524 from PSCOC), El Capitan (total replacement cost: $16,969,694

Realtors hold 63rd annual banquet JONATHAN ENTZMINGER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The Roswell Association of Realtors held its 63rd annual dinner and dance banquet Saturday at The Roswell Country Club. “(It) is the annual installation banquet for the Roswell Association of Realtors,” said Diana Bergman, 2010 RAOR president. “We ... install new officers and directors for the coming year. We also announce Realtor of the Year and Rookie of the Year for 2010.” Bergman was the emcee for the program. The evening began with an awards presentation for Realtor of the Year and Rookie of the Year. P.J. Marshall, of Century 21 Home Planning, won Realtor of the Year honors. Marshall was at a loss for words during her acceptance speech. “I don’t know what to say ... thanks,”

Marshall said. “I don’t know what else to say. (I) thank my buddy Richard ... Richard was my (real estate) partner for many years.” Brad Davis, of Prudential Enchanted Lands, Realtors, won Rookie of the Year honors. “This award means a lot to me,” Davis said. “I’m proud to be among the ranks of all the other previous rookies.” The banquet also included three skits on the history of the real estate business, produced by Carole Schlatter of Prudential Enchanted Lands, Realtors.

Congressman Steve Pearce was recently appointed to three subcommittees of the House Committee on Financial Services. The Roswell and greater southern New Mexico congressional representative in the U.S. House will serve on the Capital Markets and Government Sponsored Enterprises, Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit and Oversight and Investigations subcommittees. “I look forward to serving the people of New Mexico through these subcommittees,” stated Pearce in a news release. “I have long argued that main street should not be punished for the mistakes of Wall Street ... (and) on these subcommittees, I will work to protect and create jobs for New Mexicans.” The Capital Markets subcommittee is responsible for laws pertaining to U.S. capital markets, the securities industry and oversight of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Financial Institutions and Consumer Credit subcommittee handles the oversight of financial regulators and the Oversight and Investigations subcommittee is responsible for the oversight and investigation of all entities under the Financial Services Committee’s jurisdiction.

POTOMAC, Md. (AP) — R. Sargent Shriver was always an optimist, pioneering the Peace Corps and running the War on Poverty during the turbulent 1960s — an idealist even as the running mate on a Democratic presidential ticket doomed for failure. At his funeral Mass on Saturday, mourners from philanthropist and musician Bono to Vice President Joe Biden to former President Bill Clinton honored a man who dedicated his life to serving others. The celebration was filled with songs, laughter and fond memories. “Fifty years ago, President Kennedy told us we should ask what we can do for our country,” Clinton said. “A whole generation of us understood what President Kennedy meant by looking

at Sargent Shriver’s life.” Shriver, who died Tuesday at age 95, was affectionately known as “Sarge.” He grew up during the Great Depression, went to Yale on a scholarship and served in the Navy during World War II. Then, he fulfilled his brother -in-law John F. Kennedy’s campaign promise by developing the Peace Corps into a lasting international force. “When he was starting the Peace Corps from scratch, many people thought he was naive and too idealistic, wanting to send a bunch of young Americans abroad” to some of the poorest countries of the world, said his son, Mark Shriver. “Daddy saw people helping people.” Others were inspired to their own social activism. “I was a student really of

read short remembrances about their grandfather, recalling his passion for helping people, his hugs and his love of baseball. Cardinal Wuerl told Shriver’s grandchildren to live with the same courage and conviction. Shriver’s youngest son, Anthony Shriver, welcomed guests before the Mass began, cracking jokes and honoring his father for always making people feel valued. Anthony Shriver recalled one of his last conversations with his father. He said his father told him: “You tell Cardinal Wuerl to make Eunice a saint!” The crowd erupted in laughter. Shriver’s late wife was Special Olympics founder Eunice Kennedy Shriver.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Lawyers for a mother accused of suffocating her 3-year-old son and then burying him in a park will be allowed to present an insanity defense at her murder trial. District Judge Stan Whitaker gave approval Friday to Tiffany Toribio’s attorneys to present the defense. She is accused of suffocating Ty Toribio in May 2009 and burying him in sand at an Albuquerque park’s playground. Toribio has pleaded not guilty to murder, child abuse and other charges. She reportedly told police after her arrest that she was homeless and didn’t want her son to have the same kind of life. The decision wasn’t opposed by prosecutors, despite a law saying they should have been given notice within three weeks of her arraignment in June 2009, according to KRQE-TV.

Bono founded the Red Campaign with Shriver’s eldest son Bobby to fight AIDS in Africa. “It’s a rare combination of grace and strategy,” Bono said of Sargent Shriver.

Wyclef Jean played the piano and sang “All the Ends of the Earth” as guests — and even Cardinal Donald Wuerl, the archbishop of Washington — clapped along.

people eventually would get Medicaid under the law, and potentially several million more who are eligible today but not signed up could enroll as well. The law says the federal government will pick up the full cost of those newly eligible for the first few years, but doesn’t deal directly with covering the other group. If state officials are unsure about the Medicaid expansion, they’re intrigued about what they might be able to do with the new insurance markets, known as exchanges. Consumers will be able to go online and pick a private plan from a range of coverage levels and options. Comparison shopping will be easier because benefits will be standardized. Nearly every state has applied for an initial round of federal planning grants to explore how to design the markets. “State exchanges are good from a conservative standpoint because they involve consumer choice and markets,” said former Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, a Tennessee Republican.

with $12,218,180 from PSCOC) and Valley View (total remodeling cost: $7,987,243 with $5,750,815 fr om PSCOC). Goddard High School will receive $3 million to replace the heating and cooling system and finish the sports field and $1.5 million for asbestos removal, ceiling r eplacement and cleaning the plenum, without help fr om PSCOC. Roswell High School would r eceive $300,000 without help from PSCOC to build a field house for girls athletics in compliance with Title IX. Parkview Early Literacy Center would receive $1.75 million without the help of PSCOC for a new roof, heating and cooling. PSCOC already voted last Thursday to award the four aforementioned elementary schools funding for planning and design for renovations. Usually these awards are made annually at the end of July, but PSCOC decided last September to allow a delayed 2010-2011 Special Standards-Based Capital Outlay Award cycle to begin design for the top 60 neediest schools. Valley View, Berrendo, Military Heights and El Capitan elementary schools wer e deemed especially needy as they ranked 10, 33, 37 and

48, respectively, on the New Mexico Condition List. The NMCL measures the physical condition and adequacy of a school facility based on the state’s adequacy standards. The school district has spent nearly $58 million updating schools since 2004, according to construction pr oject r eports. Most of the schools have not been updated since they were built. The four elementary schools listed and Roswell High School were all originally constructed in the mid 1950s while Goddard was built in 1965. The School Boar d made it a goal to revamp school facilities in the early 2000s, Gottlieb said. Since then, the schools have relied on general obligation bonds passed by voters and PSCOC to provide funding for the Facilities Master Plan. PSCOC covers 72 percent of the total renovation cost, if local funds (usually through bonds) cover the remaining 28 percent and if the district complies to state guidelines. In previous bond elections, voters approved funding to r enovate East Grand Plains, Missouri A venue, Pecos, Monterrey, Sunset Elementary schools as well as provide science labs for Goddar d and Roswell high schools. emiller@roswell-record.com

“What I would like to see is more flexibility given to states in the regulations that define how the legislation works,” said Frist. “Each state can develop the exchange that best meets the needs of their people.” Two models already exist: Utah’s, which is light on regulation, and Massachusetts’, where the state government is more directly involved. Frist, a heart transplant surgeon, has teamed with Democrat Tom Daschle of South Dakota, also a former Senate leader, to try to change the health care debate by stepping back from the repeal fight and using the law as a foundation that can be improved. They expect to direct many of their recommendations to the states. In New Jersey, Democratic Assemblyman Herb Conaway is hoping to be able to work with Republican Gov. Chris Christie to design their state’s exchange. Conaway, a primary care doctor, heads the health committee and is the Democratic counterpart to Alabama’s Wren in national planning efforts by state legislators. “There will be tangible benefits that come to states for taking on these problems,” said Conaway. “Done right, there is a benefit that comes to them from getting their people insured. An insured population uses resources more wisely, instead of going to the emergency room and getting treatment that costs four times as much.”

SANTA FE — There are two new sheriffs in town. Is Santa Fe big enough to hold both of them? It will have to. And it will be interesting to watch. Ever since her election, Gov. Susana Martinez has been referred to as the new sheriff in town. It fits. She spent many years as a prosecutor. Her husband, Chuck Franco, was also in law enforcement, capping his career as an under-sheriff. But the day before the Legislature convened, another sheriff appeared in town. The tea party arrived to ensure that the 12 new House Republicans it had elected followed their laws. And the first law was “Thou shalt not vote for a Democrat for House speaker.” That made it tough on the other new sheriff. Martinez and House Republican leaders had cooked up a deal with some southern Democrats to unseat House Speaker Ben Lujan

with Democrat Joseph Cervantes, of Las Cruces. That deal looked like it might work until a posse of tea partiers arrived in town and a stampede of emails demanded that every House Republican vote for a fellow Republican for speaker. So at the last minute, the deal was off. There had been hope among Republicans that with Cervantes as speaker, he and Martinez could work together to pass some great legislation, as one Republican leader phrased it. It didn’t happen. And it probably wouldn’t have anyway. With the tea partiers’ insistence that all

Roswell Daily Record

Republicans vote for a Republican for speaker, they were saying no compromises. If we can’t have it all, we’ll take nothing. And that’s what they got. That philosophy is typical of both the far right and far left — neither of which the tea partiers say they are. If you aren’t with us 100 percent of the time, you aren’t with us and we’ll work to defeat you in the next election. So if the tea party influence continues throughout the session, there wouldn’t have been any chance of a Martinez-Cervantes coalition passing the “great legislation” for which some Republicans had hoped. Why? Because any legislation a governor is going to get through a Legislature controlled by the other party is going to require some compromise. And the tea party doesn’t appear to allow such a thing. Martinez’s deputies obviously

saw that ambush coming and it may have affected her opening day remarks to the Legislature. If she were looking at working with a Cervantes-led coalition, she might have been a little more Reaganesque in trying to charm her opposition into working with her for a better New Mexico. Instead, her message seemed to be more one of don’t mess with me because I’m tough and you’re not going to get away with anything. The majority of the audience were supporters who came to listen to their new governor. And they loved it. How is all this going to work out? Will it be a bitter fight the next two years leading up to the 2012 election when all 112 lawmakers will have to defend their seats? It could happen. Lujan’s election positions Republicans to run against the Ben Lujan Legislature the way they used to run against the

“Manny and Ray” Legislature in the 1990s. And remember, Lujan was former Gov. Bill Richardson’s biggest supporter in the Legislature. This enables Republicans to run against Richardson again in 2012. But my guess is that it won’t happen quite that way. Lujan needs every vote he can get to hold his party together. He can’t be as vindictive as he was the last time he was challenged. He’s a practical politician. He’ll work with others. Likewise, I imagine Martinez will be more practical than she is sounding for her true believers right now. She knows she is being watched nationally by people who want to know if she can get things done. Two years of gridlock and she will fall off many radar screens.

National Opinion Financial reform

“While the financial system is far stronger today than it was a year ago, it is still operating under the exact same rules that led to its near collapse.” President Barack Obama’s quote is as true today as it was last January. Congress passed financial legislation in 2010, but it hardly qualifies as reform. Certainly not the re-regulation appropriate in light of the brutal lessons learned at the expense of investors, home buyers and taxpayers. Banking executives are lining up to receive bonuses that date to 2007, the front end of the international economic collapse. America’s largest banks, bailed out by the U.S. Treasury, prospered. The revolving door between the regulators, Congress, the executive branch and lucrative private employment ensured sympathy stayed with keeping a light rein on the financial industry. Bankers, busy stuffing bonuses in their pockets, tallying record profits and sitting on vast sums of money and not making loans, could rattle politicians by claiming reforms were antibusiness and a threat to jobs. Financial practices that fueled the Great Depression resulted in rules that protected the economy for 60 years. The nation is struggling to get past the Great Recession. This time the only lessons learned were how to bully and cajole Congress into doing nothing. Be advised: The rules that got the U.S. economy into trouble still exist. Guest Editorial The Seattle Times

Obama’s speech in Arizona

The puzzling, persistent question reached the height of its intensity a month or so ago. In the wake of political defeat and legislative stalemate, what had become of President Barack Obama? Where was the renowned, if understated, passion? Where was the formidable resolve? Where were the words that used to captivate the nation? Such queries have effectively answered themselves. Obama’s consoling overture to all those affected by the Tucson, Ariz., massacre, and his cautious call for civility among all those trying to make some sense of what seems to defy all reason, have reasserted his presence in the center of what, for good or ill, is the ongoing civic conversation in America. At the Jan. 12 memorial, the president was at once mournful, conciliatory, philosophical and gently inspiring. He was everything, in essence, that the country demands of its leaders in the most despairing of times. Here was an even more soulful version of the “One America” speech with which Obama first captured the nation’s attention, and admiration, more than six years ago. With that, the president won over some of his fiercest critics, at least for a time. How long the more considered, and considerate, dialogue he yearns for can be sustained is, in part, up to those same critics — and even the ones who are more shrill and less reasonable.

Abortion: the eclipse of reason

Dear Editor: Recently, I attended a Sanctity of Life and Unity Day rally in Santa Fe bringing together people of various religious faiths in support of the rights of the unborn. The following is a brief history of the abortion movement, and why pro-life organizations throughout the U.S. have set aside, for the last 38 years, the month of January to observe the sanctity of the life of the unborn. On Jan. 22, 1973, in Roe vs. Wade, the U.S. Supreme Court legalized abortion determining that an unborn human being is not a “legal person” but is the property of the mother. Although the decision was qualified (abortions were not automatically approved for the second and third trimesters) it was quickly interpreted by both sides as allowing an abortion at any time during the pregnancy. It soon became apparent to pro-life advocates that the general public knew very little about what takes place during

kill an unborn child — even when it is capable of living outside the womb — that Congress must restore the original intent of the Framers, which includes the “endowed by their Creator” clause in the Declaration of Independence. The Constitution cannot be separated from the Declaration, its philosophical and moral foundation. Restoring recognition of an unborn child’s right to live is the objective of Rep. Paul Broun M.D., a Republican from Georgia’s 10th District. On Jan. 7, Broun re-introduced the Sanctity of Human Life Act, H.R. 212, a bill that states, “human life shall be deemed to begin with fertilization.” In a statement, Broun said: “The right to life is the most fundamental right, and it should be defended vigorously and absolutely. As a physician, I know on the basis of medical and scientific evidence that human life begins with fertilization. I am committed to ensuring that not one tax dollar is used to fund abortion, but that is not enough. God cannot continue to bless America while we are killing 4,000 unborn babies every day. This atrocity must end ...”

NOTICE TO OUT-OF-TOWN SUBSCRIBERS

an abortion. During the late 1970’s, a Christian film company produced a movie showing an actual abortion. The film, “A Matter of Choice,” showed a D & C, or dilatation and curettage abortion, where the abortionist inserts a tiny hoe-like instrument, the curette, into the womb, scrapes the wall of the uterus, cutting the baby’s body into several pieces. The late Charlton Heston, in introducing the film, made the observation that the mutilation of an unborn baby’s body is indeed an “Eclipse of Reason.” The pro-choice people eased their conscience responding that most abortions occurred during the first trimester and that the baby was just a fetus, a nonhuman. As abortionists became more greedy (abortion is a multi-million dollar industry) and less sensitive to the sanctity of life, more second and third trimester abortions were performed. In 1993, then-President Bill Clinton signed into law legislation, authorizing for the first time in U.S. history, government funded medical research using tissue This is a debate worth continuing, regardless of how far H.R. 212 gets. Callousness toward human life leads to indifference to other things. When we become comfortable and apathetic about one great evil, tolerance of other evils inevitably follows. Consider news reports about the pressure on Medicare and Medicaid, along with talk of “rationing” health care due to the growing number of retirees. This will inevitably lead to a question about whose life is “worth” saving and whose is not. Once one category of human life is deemed worthless, it is a short step to devaluing other categories of human life. Politicians who won’t protect an unborn child probably can’t be counted on to protect the elderly or the sick and disabled when they begin to cost too much. If personal choice and economics are the new standards for determining human value, is there anyone who should feel safe if they fail to meet those standards, which are ever-changing and subject to the shifting winds of the age?

from aborted fetuses. With this stroke of a pen, it became legal to cannibalize and commercialize the tiny bodies of aborted babies. Harvesting these body parts became a very lucrative business. A baby who is bor n dead is of little value to fetal tissue researchers, because brain tissue and other organs quickly deteriorate when deprived of oxygen. Thus, the abortionists utilize a means of extracting the body parts and brain matter from a living baby who is not yet expelled from the birth canal. The procedure is called a D & X (dilatation and extraction), or better known as partialbirth abortion. “Partial-birth abortion,” said the late Democratic Sen. Moynihan, “comes as close to infanticide as anything I have seen in our judiciary.” In 2004, Congress, with President Bush’s signature, passed a law banning this draconian practice. When the ban was upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court in 2008, the then-Sen. Obama vociferously opposed the decision, stating that the court was denying “equal rights for women.” Since becoming president, Obama has promised Planned Parenthood to support the Freedom of Choice Act which would nullify every pro-life law passed at the state or federal level, including the ban on partial-birth abortion. Since abortion was legalized in 1973, it has been estimated that there have been

In New York State, the “abortion capital” of the U.S., 33 percent of all pregnancies are terminated, and in the suburb of Manhattan one of every two pregnancies are aborted. Most alarming, is the fact that one of four women who regularly attend church in the U.S. have had an abortion. There was a time when the nation of Israel turned from worshipping Jehovah God and embraced Baal worship, which practiced child sacrifice. One place where children were sacrificed was outside the walls of Jerusalem, at a site called Tophet. It is supposed to have been called Tophet from the root word Toph, a drum, because the priests would beat drums to drown out the screams of the children as they were rolled into the fire. The T oph in America today that is drowning out the muted cries of the unborn in the womb is the “deafening silence” of our pastors and religious leaders who will not speak out against these atrocities.

An overpopulated world

Dear Editor: Considering the present state of our world, growing populations are creating many new problems. Namely we are using up basic resources such as fresh water and minerals, polluting our atmosphere and notwithstanding; the world’s weather patterns are becoming more destructive with each passing decade. The changes in our world are no longer subtle. They are in our face so to speak. Ground water (aquifers), which took millions of years to fill, are reaching dangerously low levels. Oil supplies, our primary form of energy, are on the downhill slope. As for the world temperature, the ice melt on both poles is telling us the temperate world, we have enjoyed, may never return again. In fact an average temperature rise of only 5 degrees, over the next 100 years, can turn our entire world into desert. If you have checked the world’s financial markets lately you have seen that energy and commodities are definitely on the rise. Energy especially, with the promise of big retur ns, is soaking up the money supply and leaving the consumer wondering where all the money went. If you doubt this wisdom then try getting a sizable loan. They say “Green Energy” is an answer to many of our world’s problems but I ask you to think again. In ter ms of pure investment, nuclear power and oil production outstrip “Green Energy” more than a hundred to one. I guess it goes to prove old habits die hard and therefore suggests, at least for the time being, “Green Energy” will remain on the back burner. If you are asking yourself how all these changes affect you, I would have to say, whether you see it or not, you are in the middle of a financial revolution, which in turn, is changing your lifestyle. By that I mean higher energy prices mean higher everything. That includes transportation, food, housing, clothing, electronic gadgets and in fact just about everything you buy on a daily basis. Think about this. What is going to happen when oil prices start spiking upward? Can you really afford $4/gallon gasoline; or what about $5 or $6 for a gallon of gas? Gets gruesome does it not? I predict we Americans are within 18 months of seeing $4/gallon gasoline prices (with little or no increase in wages). This is all assuming a war does not break out in the Middle East. In that case we will all have to hold on to our hats, because oil will then turn into a commodity as valuable as gold. Granted I am not painting a pretty picture here but facts are facts. Many informed oil analysts are more pessimistic than I am. The world is starting to roll over financially because of future energy costs and the consequences are unavoidable. Our planet simply does not have the natural resources to sustain over six and a half billion citizens let alone the population growth predicted over the remainder of this century. Something will have to give here and that something will not be pretty to look at. I fear more war is unavoidable as

OPINION III more nations increase their defense budgets. Saudi Arabia, for example, just spent $25 billion to buy new fighter aircraft and NATO is starting a new round to enhance its military capability. The U.S. is spending untold billions developing a new tactical fighter aircraft and strategic defensive missiles capability. In all, the world is becoming more paranoid as the world’s natural resources are being depleted and thus more expensive. As a veteran I truly regret the thought of what always seems like useless and tragic warfare. Not only will soldiers have to die but cultures will become enamored with the thought of self defense — a condition in which all participants are defending themselves against an aggressor whose only cause is oppression. This will be doubly stringent and violent in a world fighting for food and minerals rather than just for political gain — in short the face of future warfare will be nuclear and all that nuclear warfare implies. If I could honestly predict a different future for the world, I would, but given the population growth of this crowded world of ours, as well as the slow depletion of the world’s natural resources and the expansion of military spending, it is hard to predict otherwise. We are in a phrase, “Hell-bent for disaster.” It would be interesting to see what our planet will look like 100 years into the future. Although it is impossible to predict, my best guess is the world will sooner or later understand some form of population control will be required to sustain human life. That in fact, in a world already depleted of much of its mineral wealth, it will be impossible to maintain such large populations of people. Whether or not this guess will come true is certainly debatable but nonetheless it is my hope humanity will one day learn how to live together without warfare. In closing I of fer this analogy for thought ... In many ways our planet is comparable to life on a spaceship. That is a space ship would have limited resources and thus the management of supplies would be a first priority. This would be especially true where oxygen and food wer e concer ned. In fact, before a long voyage ever began, the rules of consumption would be clearly spelled out as the occupants of the spaceship would realize their very existence depended upon intelligent use of their resources. In reality our planet is not much different from a spaceship. Our planet does travel vast distances through space and time with a crew of billions. Our planet’s atmosphere can be easily damaged and our planet’s food, usable water and mineral resources cannot last forever. The point of my analogy is this: The difference between the crew of this theoretical spaceship and humanity is vision. The crew of the spaceship sees vividly the consequences of over consumption while humanity, caught up in survival, lacks the vision to see these same and critical consequences. Jim Osborne Roswell

Praise for Schmitt’s appointment

Dear Editor: Rebuttal to 1/18/11 opinion article by Sherry Robinson re: Jack Schmitt’s appointment. The state of New Mexico is fortunate to have a native son like Harrison Schmitt willing to serve as secretary of energy. Our family has known Schmitt and his brilliant wife, Teresa, since 1976. They are great, honorable people who have served our state and country well. With regard to Dr. Harrison Schmitt’s position on global warming, I would suggest that Ms. Robinson research Milankovitch’s theory. There are several theories to explain why ice ages and warming occur. These include CO and volcanic dust in the atmosphere, wandering poles or changes in the sun. Milutin Milankovitch’s (Yugoslav 1878-1958) theory, first proposed in 1924, is gaining current acceptance. His theory considers combinations of three Earth orbital variations. The tilt of the Earth’s axis changes about 1.29 percent from the average 23.1 percent over 41,000 years. This change affects the seasons as does the shape of the Earth’s orbit around the sun from circular to elliptical (eccentricity 0.00 to 0.06) over a 97,000 year period. The axis also changes its alignment to the stars (precision of the equinoxes) and alters the seasons over 22,000 years.

Roswell Daily Record by Ace Reid

Today the axis is aligned to about one degree of the North Star (Polaris.) In 1500 AD it was three and one-half degrees from Polaris and in 2100 AD it will be only one-half of a degree. Computer modeling shows a correlation between the ebb and flow of the ice ages and the Milankovitch theory during the last 600,000 years. With some possible contradictions sea cores confirm these calculations, as do temperature studies from ancient reef deposits. Many other factors deter mine the earth’s macro and micro climates. The drifting continents change the great heat engines like the Gulf Stream or the Japanese Current. When North and South America drifted together some 4 million years ago, it closed the sea passage between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans and made major climate changes. Ice melting near Greenland may have allowed and then accelerated the smaller recent ice ages. The action of the ice could alter the action of the great Gulf Stream heat engine. Mountains rise and fall and impact the Earth’s atmosphere’s movement. Mountain rain shadows come and go. Man must adapt and survive. It should make him stronger. Schmitt is a very intelligent and experienced scientist with political service. New Mexico could not do better than to have his services in this position. Bert Murphy Roswell

Russian spy Anna Chapman reveals ‘all the secrets’ MOSCOW (AP) — Russian spy Anna Chapman stares seductively into the camera lens and declares “I will uncover all the secrets.” It’s the top of a new television show that takes her post-espionage career as a media persona to a new level. The secrets to which the 28year -old Chapman alludes aren’t about her years of undercover work in the U.S., but on unexplained mysteries of the occult. The new television show, which debuted Friday night on the private REN-TV network, further raises Chapman’s profile among Russians who have already seen her pose halfnaked in a men’s magazine and

It also neatly avoids her previous life as a deep cover spy in America, something she has vowed not to discuss and the network’s officials have promised not to raise. “We don’t talk about the situation that made Anna famous. We understand that her activities were in the interests of the state,” REN-TV’s documentary series head Mikhail Tukmachyov was quoted as saying in mass-selling daily Komsomolskaya Pravda. Chapman, in a red-and-black dress with a black collar, narrated some of Friday’s show, which probed how Arabic script might have appeared on the

Chapman stripped down to lingerie in a photo shoot for the Russian edition of Maxim, appearing on the cover of the November issue under the caption “For Your Eyes Only.” A month earlier, she attended a Russian rocket launch in Kazakhstan where she brushed aside questions from a reporter. She has also become the new celebrity face of a Moscow bank that works with aerospace industries and joined the leadership of the youth wing of the main pro-Kremlin party.

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

It doesn’t happen often, but on occasion, the first quarter can decide a basketball game. That occurred on Saturday in Roswell’s win over Ruidoso. Roswell broke open a nip-and-tuck game with a 21-6 run to end the first quarter en route to a 29-15 first-quarter lead and a 7554 win over the Warriors at the Coyote Den. The turning point came midway through the opening stanza. Ruidoso had just taken the lead, 9-8, on a Forrest Sanchez jumper, prompting Coyote coach Britt Cooper to call for a timeout. “I just told them that it’s time start to playing,” Cooper said about what he told his team during the break. “We just showed up and thought it was going to be easy. Ruidoso came to play; they came into the game with a three-game

winning streak and beat West Las Vegas (Friday) on the road. “They were ready to play us and we weren’t meeting their intensity.” message was The received. Roswell forced five Warrior turnovers and rattled off a 15-0 run over the next minute and a half — highlighted by a stretch of nine in a row over a 33-second span — for a 23-9 lead with 1:52 left in the opening quarter. Ruidoso never got closer than 12 the rest of the way and all of those occasions came as the teams traded points down the stretch of the first. Deyton DeLaCerda’s runner with 1.4 seconds left in the first pushed Roswell’s lead back to 14 as the quarter came to a close. “We picked it up and I thought we finished the quarter all right,” Cooper said.

NATIONAL BRIEFS CELEBRATION DRAWS NEARLY 80K TIGER FANS

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) — Cam Newton and Auburn’s football team put on one last Saturday afternoon show at Jordan-Hare Stadium. With an estimated 78,000 fans on hand, including hundreds of students crowded onto the field before the stage, the Tigers celebrated their first national championship in 53 years. It also turned into a farewell for stars Newton and Nick Fairley, both skipping their senior seasons to enter the NFL draft. Newton slapped hands as he danced along the line of students, then struck a Heisman pose at the podium and sang out, “War Eagle.” He thanked the fans for standing by him through the revelations that his father, Cecil, sought payment to sign with Mississippi State, a scandal that shadowed Newton for the season’s final two months. The biggest applause came when Auburn introduced Fairley and Newton. Both took turns at the podium, along with Gov. Robert Bentley — who is from Tuscaloosa — and others.

NFC: Stout defenses

LAKE FOREST, Ill. (AP) — Aaron Rodgers, get ready for Julius Peppers. Jay Cutler, have fun dodging Clay Matthews. With their rocket arms and fleet feet, both quarterbacks have a chance to cement themselves among the game’s best when the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears take their historic rivalry to a new level in Sunday’s NFC championship game at Soldier Field. This will be the 182nd meeting between these teams — none more anticipated than this one. Only once have they played in the postseason and that was a week after the bombing of Pearl Harbor, when the Bears beat the Packers at Wrigley Field. The men behind center will certainly be under the spotlight, but the guys on the other side just might steal it. After all, both defenses ranked among the league’s stingiest. “It’s probably the best defense we’ve played to date, just fundamentally sound in the way they’re playing,” Packers coach Mike McCarthy said. Bears cornerback Charles Tillman said, “Right now, the best thing we can do is out-execute their defense.” It won’t be easy. The Packers boast the league’s fifth-ranked defense and tied for second with 47 sacks, the highest ranking in franchise history. Matthews was fourth in the league with 13 1/2. That doesn’t bode well for Cutler, who got sacked a league-leading 52 times. Yes, the protection improved down the stretch, but containing the blitz won’t be easy. “I would expect them to be aggressive,” said Cutler, who got sacked six times in a loss at Green Bay to end the regular season. “They have in the past four or five games, you know with Charles (Woodson) blitzing a lot and Clay Matthews and those guys. We’ve just got to be on our keys and our tips, hit our hot routes and do what we do in the offense.” Rodgers figures to have his hands full, too, against a team that seemed like a longshot at best to reach the playoffs not too long ago. The Bears were a mess at 4-3, with three losses in four games heading into their off week. Cutler had little protecSee NFC, Page B5

AFC: Playmakers aplenty

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The rundown nearly always begins with the names Polamalu and Harrison, Revis and Scott. Fair enough, because defense is the calling card for the Pittsburgh Steelers and New York Jets. Look at the other side of the ball, though, and the list is impressive: Roethlisberger, Ward and Wallace; Tomlinson, Holmes and an emerging Sanchez. Yes, the teams playing for the AFC championship on Sunday have playmakers on offense, too. Does that mean Heinz Field’s scoreboards will light up with points? Don’t count on that. But count on some of those offensive standouts having a significant impact. Holmes, for instance, was a postseason star for the Steelers two years ago, when they won their record sixth championship, and is doing it again this month in his first playoffs since being traded to New York. He even admits his lunging touchdown catch in last week’s victory at New England probably was more difficult than the reception from Ben Roethlisberger to beat Arizona in the Super Bowl. Regardless, they were huge plays. “Your mindset has to be you are going to be the guy to make that play,” Holmes says. Just as a coach’s mindset has to be to get the ball to a guy like Holmes. “Having not really followed the Steelers, other than some of the playoff

And another in Mike Wallace, the speedy second-year wideout from Mississippi.

Ward no longer is the top target, although his 59 receptions were just one less than Wallace had. Because he does so much else — block as well as any receiver in the game, according to Jets coach Rex Ryan; calm younger players in the locker room, on the sideline and on the field — Ward remains as much a key as Wallace, who had 10 TD catches and averaged 21.0 yards a reception, tops

They kept changing it up and we had

trouble getting into our offense. We just had a hard time of fensively,” Jones said about the third quarter, adding that he was happy with his team’s effort. Lane Vander Hulst led Goddard (11-8) with 16 points, while Chase Salazar added 15.

Previewing the NFC Championship Game Matchups for the NFC championship game between the Green Bay Packers and Chicago Bears at Soldier Field:

When the Packers have the ball

Until the playoffs began, the Packers were a pass first, second, third and all the time team. QB Aaron Rodgers (12) did not have a go-to running back all season after Ryan Grant was hurt. Rodgers even was the secondleading rusher during a 10-6 season. But in Philadelphia for the wild-card round, rookie RB James Starks (44) emerged with 123 yards rushing, and he had 66 tough yards against Atlanta. The Bears must be aware that Green Bay will try to run, although Rodgers not only is the Packers’ main weapon, he’s been the top quarterback in the playoffs. A pass rush is a must for the Bears, which means DLs Julius Peppers (90) and Israel Idonije (71) have to be factors early and often. LBs Brian Urlacher (54) and Lance Briggs (55) had strong years and need to get after Rodgers. Greg Jennings (85), Donald Driver (80), James Jones (89) and Jordy Nelson (87) are a formidable receiving corps, but Rodgers will find anyone in a Packers uniform. He also has scrambling skills and will take off

when a play breaks down, making something out of nothing. Again, Urlacher and Briggs will be the keys to short-circuiting Rodgers’ runs. Green Bay’s offensive line has improved throughout the season, with RG Josh Sitton (71) the standout. He’ll see lots of DTs Tommie Harris (91) and Anthony Adams (95). The Bears need to be aggressive in coverage with CBs Charles Tillman (33), Tim Jennings (28) and D.J. Moore (30) certain to be busy. Chicago’s best secondary player is safety Chris Harris. If Harris is able to roam despite a hip injury, he could be a difference maker.

When the Bears have the ball

Chicago was 4-3 going into its of f week, and the offense got something of an overhaul. Coordinator Mike Martz and coach Lovie Smith reined in QB Jay Cutler (6), cutting down his erratic play; revamped the offensive line, where C Olin Kreutz (57) is the leader; and became more dependent on RB Matt Forte (22). Forte responded with 1,069 yards rushing and six touchdowns. Cutler also responded and the Bears won seven of nine to win the NFC North ahead of Green Bay. Cutler, who like Rodgers is mobile — he had two TDs rushing and two passing against Seattle last week, tying a record set in 1954 and ’55 by Otto Graham — has advantage over his quarterback buddy (they text each other frequently, although presumably not this week). Greg Olsen (82) is an elite tight end, even if he doesn’t get much notice. Olsen was unstoppable against the Seahawks. The Packers can be run on and that’s what Chicago wants to do from the outset. If Green Bay gets stingy on the ground, WRs Johnny Knox (13), Earl Bennett (80) and Devin Hester (23) need to win matchups with topnotch CBs Charles Woodson (21) and Tramon Williams (38), whose 70-yard interception return helped do in Atlanta last Saturday. That’s a very tough chore for Chicago. One key could be backup RB Chester Taylor (29), who along with Forte can be dangerous as a receiver out of the backfield. Checkdowns could provide a lifeblood for the Bears, except that sensational LB Clay Matthews (52) is certain to be nearby. Matthews is the Pack’s difference maker on D.

Special Teams

The edge here belongs to Chicago. Atlanta’s Eric Weems returned a kickoff for a TD against the Packers last week, and Chicago has a superb punt returner in the record-setting Hester. He ran back three punts for scores and could see action on kickoffs, too. Danieal Manning (38) normally is used on kickoffs. Chicago also covers well, Green Bay not so much. Robbie Gould (9) made 25 of 30 field goals and has range. The tricky winds at Soldier Field won’t bother him, but they also shouldn’t be a factor for Green Bay’s Mason Crosby (2), who hit 22 of 28 tries. Both have made plenty of clutch kicks. Both punters, veteran Brad Maynard (4) for Chicago and first-year player Tim Masthay (8) for Green Bay, are

efficient if not spectacular. Maynard certainly has the edge in experience.

Coaching

Smith and the Packers’ Mike McCarthy each should get support in Coach of the Year balloting. Not much was expected from the Bears this season, even after they started 3-0. But their play in the final two months of the schedule was impressive as they showed they can win with offense or defense, complemented by strong special teams. Martz, in particular, deserves some credit for taming his own gambling instincts and, in turn, taming those of Cutler. The improvement on the offensive line also stems from the coaching. Rod Marinelli might get ridiculed for overseeing the only 0-16 team in NFL history while he was the Lions’ head coach, but he’s a fine defensive coordinator who got the most out of Peppers, not always an easy assignment. McCarthy and his staff have dealt with an unfair number of injuries — 15 on injured reserve including six key defensive players, Grant and TE Jermichael Finley — yet found the kind of depth that carries teams deep into the playoffs. Green Bay has peaked in the last month, with Rodgers playing the best football of his career. Dom Capers’ defense is fast, smart and aggressive, led by second-year LB Matthews, veteran Woodson and NT B.J. Raji (90).

Previewing the AFC Championship Game

Aaron Rodgers works out at a Green Bay practice.

Matchups for the AFC championship game between the New York Jets and Pittsburgh Steelers at Heinz Field:

When the Jets have the ball

Don’t be fooled by the Jets’ claims they need to pound the ball on the ground to win. For one thing, nobody pounds the Steelers, who allowed the fewest yards rushing, a mere 1,004, this season. For another, the Jets have thrown the ball well recently, particularly in last week’s shocker at New England. QB Mark Sanchez (6) has completed 60.7 percent of his passes, had three TDs against the Patriots, and his 91.6 rating is nothing to ignore. He also has dynamic receivers in former Steelers star Santonio Holmes (10), the MVP of Pittsburgh’s February 2009 Super Bowl triumph, and Braylon Edwards (17), and reliable ones in Jerricho Cotchery (89) and TE Dustin Keller (81). New York’s offensive line is a strength even without injured RT Damien Woody (Achilles’ tendon). Nick Mangold (74) is a Pro Bowl center and RG Brandon Moore (65) probably deserved to go to Hawaii. Still, the defense New York faces is far more fierce and formidable than what it saw in Indianapolis or New England the last two weeks. Neither the Colts nor the Patriots have playmakers like S Troy Polamalu (43), who could wind up anywhere on the field at any time, and LBs James Harrison (92) and LaMarr Woodley (56). The Jets must get solid performances from tackles D’Brickashaw Ferguson (60) and Wayne Hunter (78), plus dependable blitz pickups from RBs Shonn Greene (23) and LaDainian Tomlinson (21), along with steady veteran FB Tony Richardson (49). Tomlinson has had a rebirth in New York. He and Greene have combined for 271 yards rushing in the two

postseason games. If they get anywhere near their playoff averages Sunday, it bodes well for the Jets. Regardless, Sanchez must remain consistent and throw in some big plays such as the TD pass to Holmes last week or the one to Edwards that set up the winning field goal in Indy. Keller should expect to be rocked by Polamalu and S Ryan Clark every time he touches the ball, but Pittsburgh’s cornerbacks are beatable.

When the Steelers have the ball

Don’t be fooled by the Steelers’ claims they need to pound the ball on the ground to win, either. The running game might be a bit more critical for them, and Rashard Mendenhall (34) can be a beast; he rushed for 1,273 yards and 13 touchdowns during the season, but managed only 46 yards against Baltimore. Pittsburgh’s offensive line, banged up all year, will be tested by a resurgent Jets defense that pressured Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Rookie C Maurkice Pouncey (53) has more than held his own, but QB Ben Roethlisberger (7) doesn’t always get the same support from the rest of his blockers. Of course, few quarterbacks can manufacture something out of chaos the way Roethlisberger does — and has done in winning two Super Bowls. He masterfully led the comeback from a 14-point deficit against Baltimore last week. Although Hines Ward (86) is the key receiver in big spots, Mike Wallace (17) figures to get the Revis Treatment. Shutdown CB Darrelle Revis (24) will be a huge challenge for Wallace, Ward, Emmanuel Sanders (88) and Antonio Brown (84), one of the heroes of the win over the Ravens. Just like Manning and Brady, Roethlisberger probably will go after CB Antonio Cromartie (31), and look over the middle for TE Heath Miller (83). New York doesn’t cover tight ends over the middle particularly well. Even if the Jets get penetration similar to what they got against the Patriots from Shaun Ellis (92) and Calvin Pace (97), that doesn’t mean Roethlisberger will be stymied. His ability to take hits, avoid the rush and throw on the run make him dangerous everywhere.

Special Teams

A strength of the Jets under coordinator Mike Westhoff, with Brad Smith (16) as the main threat. Smith ranked second in the league with 1,432 yards on kick returns, a 28.6 average, and two touchdowns. The Steelers very well remember the 97-yarder Smith had to open New York’s 22-17 victory at Pittsburgh on Dec. 19. The Steelers counter mostly with Brown on returns. Brown had one kickoff runback for a score during the season. Both teams are solid on kickoff coverages in particular. Pittsburgh changed placekickers in midseason from Jeff Reed to Shaun Suisham (6) and it worked out nicely. The turf at Heinz field can be problematic, but Suisham went 14 for 15 on field goals. New York’s Nick Folk (2) isn’t quite so reliable, even missing a 30-yarder at Foxborough. He did hit the 32-yarder that lifted the Jets past the Colts. Steve Weatherford (9) gets good hang time and can punt directionally. Having kicked in the Meadowlands all year should prepare him for tricky winds, the kind that Steelers P Jeremy Kapinos (13) knows well.

All the kidding aside about their personalities being so

dissimilar, Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin and Jets head man Rex Ryan have much in common. Both are superb defensive coaches, albeit with different styles. Tomlin, who won a championship in 2008, is blessed with the likes of Harrison and Polamalu — and coordinator Dick LeBeau, possibly the best the NFL has seen. They get the most out of everyone on D. Tomlin is a terrific evaluator of talent and a strong motivator. Ryan might be bombastic, but he gets results, in great part by letting assistants such as Westhoff and offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer have freedom. His roster fits the personality Ryan wants for his team: brash, rugged, clutch.

UNLV squeaks past New Mexico, 63-62

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Tre’Von Willis made a steal and go-ahead free throws with 27 seconds left and UNLV survived a frantic final few seconds Saturday to defeat New Mexico 63-62. The Rebels (14-6, 3-3 Mountain West) trailed 61-60 when Willis intercepted Tony Snell’s pass and was intentionally fouled by Dairese Gary. Willis made the two free throws, and Oscar Bellfield hit 1 of 2 free throws with 18 seconds left to make it 63-61. On the ensuing possession, New Mexico (13-7, 1-4) turned it over with 2.9 seconds remaining when Kendall Williams’ pass went off Phillip McDonald’s hands. But Williams stole Derrick Jasper’s inbounds pass and was fouled in the act of shooting with 1.1 seconds left. After making the first, Williams missed the second and UNLV survived. Chace Stanback had 20 points and nine rebounds to lead UNLV, while Bellfield added 13 points and five assists. Gary led New Mexico with 15 points, while Williams had 11. Drew Gordon had 10 points and 13 rebounds. After the Rebels led 34-30 at halftime and scored the first three points of the second half, the Lobos countered with a 12-3 run. Later, UNLV built a 56-50 advantage with 5:54 left, but the Lobos responded with an 8-0 run, setting up the dramatic ending. Snell and McDonald each added 10 points and six rebounds for New Mexico, which will meet the Rebels again Feb. 23 in Albuquerque, N.M. New Mexico outscored UNLV in the paint 34-18 and outrebounded the Rebels 33-22. In the first half, the Lobos led 19-16 before the Rebels went on a 10-0 run — including seven from Bellfield. UNLV built its largest lead at 33-22 with 3:08 left before halftime. Stanback had 16 points in the first half, including all three 3-pointers he attempted. ————— Top 25 Capsules By The Associated Press No. 1 Ohio State 73, No. 23 Illinois 68 CHAMPAIGN, Ill.

The Buckeyes trailed by eight with 12:51 left before going on a 14-0 surge. Tisdale’s 3-pointer brought Illinois within 69-68 with 16 seconds left, but Craft’s free throws and Diebler’s strip preserved the win.

No. 7 Villanova 83, No. 3 Syracuse 72 SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — Maalik Wayns scored 17 of his 21 points in the first half as Villanova took a big lead and then held on to beat Syracuse in front of a raucous Carrier Dome crowd. It was the second straight game for each squad against a top-10 team. Villanova (172, 5-1 Big East) lost 61-59 at No. 8 Connecticut on Monday, when the Orange (18-2, 5-2) lost 74-66 at fifth-ranked Pitt. Syracuse had won 16 straight at the Carrier Dome dating to last February, but disappointed a season-high crowd of 33,736, second-largest in the building’s history. The Wildcats hit eight 3-pointers in the first half, then withstood Syracuse’s rally. The Orange cut a 13-point lead to five with 63 seconds left but the Wildcats, who went 22 for 24 on free throws, hit six straight in the final minute to hold on. Corey Stokes and Corey Fisher each had 16 points for Villanova. Kris Joseph, who missed the Pitt game with a head injury, finished with 23 points. Rick Jackson had 16 points and 15 rebounds.

No. 4 Duke 83, Wake Forest 59 WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) — Kyle Singler scored 24 points and keyed the run that helped Duke pull away from pesky Wake Forest. Ryan Kelly added a career-high 20 points on perfect shooting and Nolan Smith shook off a slow start and finished with 19 on 6-of-22 shooting for the Blue Devils (181, 5-1 Atlantic Coast Conference). The league’s highest-ranked team took care of its worst down the stretch, using two big runs to outscore Wake Forest 42-27 in the second half. Duke won its fourth straight and claimed its second victory of the week on an instate rival’s home floor. Travis McKie scored 12 points for the Demon Deacons (7-13, 0-5). They had separate droughts of 9 1⁄2 minutes without a field goal and 7 minutes without any points, and lost their fifth straight and 10th in 12 games. No. 5 Pittsburgh 80, DePaul 50 CHICAGO (AP) — Gilbert Brown scored 17 points and Ashton Gibbs added 13 to lead Pittsburgh over DePaul. With the exception of a brief lapse early in the second half, the Panthers (19-1, 7-0 Big East) cruised to their ninth straight win. The troubles continued for DePaul (6-13, 0-7 Big East). The Blue Demons dropped their 20th straight game in the conference and have lost 43 of their last 44 Big East regular-season games. Cleveland Melvin led DePaul with 11 points.

Kaymer shoots 66, leads by 5 strokes in Abu Dhabi

ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Defending champion Martin Kaymer extended his lead at the Abu Dhabi Golf Championship to five strokes over Rory McIlroy after shooting a 6-under 66 in the third round on Saturday. Kaymer, the 2010 PGA Championship winner, birdied three of his last four holes to total 18-under 198 at the Abu Dhabi Golf Club. “The great thing is I’ve made only one bogey so far, and that was the first day,” Kaymer said. “I played very consistently. I’ve made a lot of birdies the last three days.” McIlroy finished birdie-eagle for a 65 to move into second place. David Lynn of England (67) is at 204, two strokes ahead of Race to Dubai leader Charl Schwartzel of South Africa (71) and Alexander Noren of Sweden (67). U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell struggled with putting and finished with a 71. Paul Casey of England (67) made a hole-inone at the 12th. Four-time major winner Phil Mickelson was 3 under at the turn, only to make four bogeys on the back nine. He shot a 72 and trails the leader by 15 strokes. Top-ranked Lee Westwood had a 73 and is tied for 65th. Kaymer beat McIlroy by two shots in last year’s tournament, and the Northern Irishman is aware he faces a challenge on Sunday. “Kaymer is very, very good on this golf course,” McIlroy said. “He’s always good when leading from the front as well, so I’m going to have a difficult time to try and catch him.”

Texas snaps Kansas’ Allen Fieldhouse win streak

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — J’Covan Brown scored 23 points and keyed a second-half run that erased a 15-point deficit and led No. 10 Texas past No. 2 Kansas 74-63 on Saturday, snapping the Jayhawks’ 69-game home winning streak. Kansas scored the game’s first 10 points and led by as many as 15 in the early going. But Texas (16-3, 4-0 Big 12) outscored the Jayhawks 36-13 while turning a 12-point halftime deficit into a 59-48 lead on a 3-pointer by Cory Joseph. The Jayhawks (18-1, 3-1) had not lost at home since Feb. 3, 2007, the longest current streak in the nation, and were 70 at home against Texas since the inception of the Big 12 in 1996. Jordan Hamilton had 17 points for the Longhorns and Tristan Thompson added 10 in a bruising game that included two technical fouls against both teams. Tyrel Reed had 17 points and Marcus Morris 16 for Kansas, which went 8 of 30 from the field in the second half. With the loss, No. 1 Ohio State and No. 6 San Diego State are the only remaining unbeaten teams in the nation. Brown’s second 3-pointer in a 13-2 run finally wiped out the big deficit and gave the Longhorns their first lead, 45-44, with 10:39 to go. Kansas tied it with Markieff Morris’ free throw, then Tristan Thompson and Brown scored for a 49-45 Texas lead. Tyshawn Taylor’s runner in the lane brought Kansas to 49-47 before Brown made two free throws and Joseph drilled a momentum-turning 3-pointer, giving the Longhorns a 54-47 lead at the 7:32 mark. With a stunned crowd that hadn’t seen the home team lose in almost four years growing silent, the Longhorns built the lead to 59-48 on a basket by Joseph and then, just ahead of the buzzer, another 3pointer by the freshman guard, who had 11 points. The Jayhawks were unable to get a

good look against Texas’ pressure defense for almost the entire second half. When they did, they usually missed. They committed five turnovers while missing eight of their first 10 shots in the second half as Texas slowly chipped away at a 35-23 halftime deficit. The Jayhawks, who came in leading the Big 12 with a shooting percentage of 52.4, hit only 36 percent for the game, while Texas shot 46 percent and outrebounded the Jayhawks 42-33. There was a moment of silence before the game for the mother of Kansas sophomore Thomas Robinson, who died unexpectedly on Friday night. Robinson stood stoically during the tribute while Marcus Morris stood next to him and wiped away tears. Robinson scored two points, got five rebounds and committed four fouls. As T exas inched closer, Hamilton dropped in two free throws, making him 6 for 6 from the line, Kansas’ Mario Little turned it over and Gary Johnson moved in for another easy Texas bucket that got the Longhorns to within five at 42-37. Marcus Morris was then called for a technical foul and Brown made one foul shot. Earlier, a technical on Hamilton sent Reed to the foul line, where he made both shots. But Hamilton had scored and been fouled and made the free throw after Reed hit his two, leaving Kansas with a 42-33 lead. From that point, it was all Texas, with Brown hitting two 3-pointers in a flurry that finally put Texas in the lead 45-44. Reed and Markieff Morris each hit 3s as Kansas scored the first 10 points of the game and quickly seized an 18-3 lead on Brady Morningstar’s bucket. The capacity crowd roared when Robinson rebounded Marcus Morris’ miss and dropped the ball through the net, giving the Jayhawks a 22-9 lead.

LA QUINTA, Calif. (AP) — Gary Woodland and Jhonattan Vegas realize the marathon Bob Hope Classic will come down to a sprint. At least the weather will be perfect for a good run at their first PGA Tour victories. Vegas birdied the final five holes Saturday to rejoin Woodland for the second straight day atop a leaderboard dominated by hungry, inexperienced 20-somethings. Woodland and Vegas shot 66s to set up a fifth-round showdown between two 26year-olds with tremendous driving power and little experience in such pressurepacked situations. Neither slugger had ever held a lead on the PGA Tour until this week. “This deal is still long from over,” Woodland said. “It’s going to be a shootout again. The conditions will be perfect again. The greens are perfect. You’re going to have to go low and get that putter hot.” Vegas fell several shots behind Woodland with a rough start on the La Quinta course before his flurry of birdies to get to 6 under, matching Woodland at 24 under for the week. Woodland was as steady as the postcard-perfect weather on the Palmer Private course in the PGA Tour’s only five-day, four-course event. “I saw the leaderboard and saw that Gary was (ahead), so I really tried to push it a little bit, and things went my way,” said Vegas, who finished his round with an 18foot birdie putt. “I stayed patient, stayed positive throughout the round, and was able to hit some really good shots in a row.” Vegas and Woodland will play together Sunday with Scotland’s Martin Laird, who

was two shots back, on the generous Palmer course. The ideal Palm Springs conditions, described by more than one golfer as playing in a dome, are likely to make near-perfection necessary. “You know right from the first hole you’ve got to keep firing away,” said Laird, who has only one PGA Tour win. “You can’t play defensive golf. ... You’ve got to fire at flags. I don’t know what it’s going to take, but I think last year, 30 under won, and I would not be surprised if it was that or lower tomorrow.” Laird also shot a 66 to stay right behind the leaders, and defending champion Bill Haas jumped into a tie for fourth place with a 10-under 62 on the Palmer course. Haas, Chris Kirk, Keegan Bradley and Daniel Summerhays were 21 under. With most of the sport’s top names taking the week off or playing in Abu Dhabi, the Hope is a prime opportunity for a young player looking to make a mark in a historically important tournament fallen on leaner times despite its $5 million purse. None of the Hope’s top seven leaders are older than 28 — and Vegas, Kirk, Summerhays and Bradley all were members of the Nationwide Tour’s graduating class last year. The prospect of a frantic finish intrigues both Woodland, the former college basketball player playing in his 28th PGA Tour event, and Vegas, the Venezuelan golf pioneer making just his fifth appearance. Woodland never even won on the Nationwide Tour, but plans to draw on his basketball experience and on his four tournament victories during his senior year at Kansas. “You’ve got to stay in the moment, that’s

the main deal,” said Woodland, who has never finished higher than 21st on the PGA Tour. “Even if you have a six-shot lead, these guys out here on this golf course, that’s nothing. You can make up six shots in four or five holes.” Their formidable power off the tee actually hasn’t been much of an asset on two of

the courses, with the simpler holes requiring smaller clubs that won’t overpower the holes. Just how tantalizing are these courses? Vegas has 32 birdies in four rounds, two shy of Steve Stricker’s 34 at the Hope in 2009. The PGA Tour record for birdies in a 72-hole tournament is 32.

tion and there was no balance on offense, but they fixed that, sparking a 7-1 run that gave them the NFC North championship and a first-round bye. The defense was never an issue, though. The Bears made a big investment after missing the playoffs for three straight years when they signed Peppers to a six-year deal worth potentially $91.5 million. The return to form of healthy Pro Bowl linebacker Brian Urlacher after he missed almost all of last year with a wrist injury provided a major boost, too. Throw in another Pro Bowl season from Lance Briggs, and it’s not hard to see why the Bears’ defense ranked ninth this season. But it’s not all about the stars. Packers center Scott Wells mentioned Anthony Adams and Israel Idonije, not exactly the first names that come to mind when you think “Monsters of the Midway.” Then again, the Bears have never played that way under coach Lovie Smith. They’ve always been more about speed, technique and creating turnovers than bone-breaking hits, and they’re looking more like the defense that led the way to the playoffs in 2005 and 2006 than the one that struggled in recent seasons. “Their starting four, they’re outstanding up front,” Wells said. “They do a great job holding their gaps and playing their scheme.” Adams and Idonije are two important pieces on a

in the AFC among regulars. “He brings guys to his level,” Steelers offensive coordinator Bruce Arians said. “He is so smart that if and when a play breaks down, he has a great camaraderie with Ben and a great feel of which way he is going. And it’s also computed in his brain what the coverage was. He will find a spot, or he is strong enough to shake his guy loose. He is one of the best of improvising that we have, along with our quarterback.” And Wallace? “That kid’s about as good a vertical receiver as there is in the game right now,” Ryan said. Which leads to another question: “So who do you put him on?” Ryan asks. One of your playmakers, of course. Which is where the likes of cornerbacks Darrelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie come into the picture. That leads us back to defense, which seems inevitable with these teams. After all, Pittsburgh ranked second overall and the Jets (13-5) were third. The Steelers yielded a league-low 232 points; the Jets were sixth at 304. Roethlisberger, whose ability to extend a play by avoiding sacks, taking hits and still throwing, or rolling away from the pocket to make room for his rocket arm, recognizes the challenge. Especially with Revis, who has been the epitome of the shutdown cornerback in the two playoffs victories. “It’s tough,” he said. “As a competitor, you don’t want

defense that ranked ninth overall and second against the run. The same goes for D.J. Moore, who had two interceptions in an early win at Dallas and emerged as the Bears’ nickelback. That gave the secondary a boost, as did the return of safety Chris Harris after three years in Carolina. He had five interceptions and tied Charles Tillman for the team lead, but it all starts up front. Specifically, with Peppers. Even if his eight sacks put him in single digits for just the third time in his nine seasons, he’s creating all sorts of problems whether it’s drawing false starts or double and triple teams. That leads to open-

point second half to upend Fort Sumner on Saturday. The Demons led 14-12 through one, but Fort Sumner held a 28-25 lead at the break. Dexter posted 22 points in the third and 23 more in the fourth to rally for the eight-point win. “We came out in the second half and started playing as a team,” said Dexter coach James Bracken. “We started attacking their zone and moved the ball and I think their guys just got tired from moving around. “As a result, we got some good looks. We just attacked the zone and that made the difference.” Tyler Miles led Dexter (9-9) with 20 points, while Steven Marquez had 15 and Justin Salas added eight.

NMMI 42, Capitan 27 The Colts rallied out of an 11-4 hole after one by holding Capitan to six points combined in the second and third quarters on their way to a win at Cahoon Armory on Saturday. NMMI won the second quarter, 10-2, to take a 1413 lead at the break. The Colts then won the third, 94, for a 23-17 lead. NMMI closed the game out by winning the fourth, 19-10. Mike Hill led the Colts with 13 points, while Stephen Powers added 11 and Ethan Elks had 10.

ings for teammates when he’s not making the big plays himself. One beneficiary has been Idonije. He wound up with a career -high eight sacks, tying Peppers for the team lead, in his seventh season with the Bears — and his first as a starter. “When Izzy steps up and makes the plays that he’s been making this year, you start to understand why some of those decisions were made,” Briggs said. “I’m happy that Izzy got a chance to start and I’m happy with what he’s been able to do with it. He’s going to be key in our success this week and onto the Super Bowl.”

Deming 59, Goddard 43 DEMING — Cheyenne Kyser had 16 points and Abbie Blach had 13, but it wasn’t enough as the Rockets fell to 1-18 on the year with a loss to the Wildcats. “(Deming) got a lot of its offense off of free throws and we can’t give other teams that many free opportunities at the line,” said Rocket coach Greg Torres. “We made up some ground offensively, but we’ve just got to keep on working.” Kyser’s 16 included a 12 of 16 performance at the charity stripe for the Rockets, who trailed 32-14 at the break before outscoring the Wildcats 29-26 in the second half.

to ever say you are scared of anybody or you don’t want to go after someone, but you’ve got to use your head. Being a competitor is being smart as well. Knowing how good he is and with all those other guys they have over there, you can’t just be like, ‘Forget that, I’m a competitor. I’m going after him. I don’t care what happens.’ You have got to be able to use your head and know when to attack.” Being smart certainly helps negate some of the playmaking talents of a dangerous receiver or a stingy defensive back. But sometimes, physical skills take over, and a playmaker becomes a difference maker. For Pittsburgh’s D, that often means star safety Troy Polamalu, who was injured for New York’s 22-17 win at Heinz Field on Dec. 19. Polamalu’s unpredictability — he has enough freedom

to pop up anywhere in the defensive alignment — makes it that much more difficult to avoid him. “I think of how phenomenal of an athlete he is,” Steelers DE Brett Keisel said. “There isn’t anyone in the league that can cover space like Troy can. There isn’t anyone that has a feel for the game, I think, like Troy has. You don’t see anyone jumping over on fourthand-1 situations on a quarterback sneak, timing the blitz up perfectly to where they snap the ball, and he is over there making the play. “That’s the biggest thing: You know you are going to get a couple of special plays from that guy, especially when it comes around to playoff time. We look forward to seeing some spectacular moves from Mr. Polamalu.” The Jets don’t.

Roswell 46, Rio Rancho 23 CLOVIS — The Coyotes followed up a quality win over the No. 1 3A team on Friday with a quality win over a 5A opponent, Rio Rancho, on Saturday at Rock Staubus Gymnasium on the second day of the Clovis Invitational. “We played with not as much passion as we did (Friday), but we had a 10-point lead at half and I felt like we were in good shape,” said Coyote coach Joe Carpenter. “Our bench did outstanding this game and took the load off our starters. “It was a good effort by the second bunch.” The Coyotes won every quarter en route to the victory and held the Rams to fewer than six points in each of the final three quarters. “We stumped them quite a bit with the half-court defense,” Carpenter said. “Our execution wasn’t as precise as it was (Friday), but it wasn’t horrible. “We just have to continue to improve and I think this game will help us in that.” Shanice Steenholdt was the lone Coyote in double figures with 10 points as nine different Roswell (16-2) players scored at least two points. Diana Carrillo added eight and Rikki Ornelas had six.

We little knew that morning that God was going to call your name. In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same. It broke our hearts to lose you, you did not go alone; for part of us went with you, the day God called you home. You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide; and though we cannot see you, you are always at our side. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same; but as God calls us one by one, the Chain will link again.

‘Big Brother 9’ champ gets Leave four years in drug case your

BOSTON (AP) — The winner of the CBS reality show “Big Brother 9” appealed to a judge for leniency Friday, saying he wanted “a chance to get out and find out who I really am,” before he was sentenced to four years in federal prison on drug trafficking and tax charges. U.S. District Court Judge William Young handed down the sentence while Adam Jasinski, 32, of Delray Beach, Fla., listened and nodded while his parents quietly sobbed. Jasinski was arrested for attempting to sell 2,000 oxycodone pills in October 2009 to a witness cooperating with the government in North Reading, Mass. “You were drug trafficking, and you were drug trafficking until they caught you,” said Young. “You got to a position where you thought that the rules didn’t apply to you.” The sentence came after Jasinski asked Young for a lighter sentence or time served. Jasinski pleaded guilty in October to possession with attempt to distribute oxycodone and failure to file a tax return for 2008, the year he won the $500,000 “Big Brother” prize. “I’m sick. I won $500,000 and I blew it

all,” said an emotional Jasinski, who also has admitted to being treated for bipolar disorder and drug addiction. “I apologize. I’m a mess...Give me a chance to get out and find out who I really am.” Jasinski’s lawyer, Valerie Carter, sought for a sentence of around 10 months, or time served. Young told Jasinski he had shown progress in seeking treatment for his drug addiction and his mental illness. Young said that’s why he opted not to adopt Assistant U.S. Attorney Linda Ricci’s recommendation for a 4 1/5 year prison sentence. But Young said it was the second time Jasinski was convicted on drug charges. He was sentenced to five years’ probation after his previous conviction in New York. Jasinski had faced a maximum 14 years on the drug charge and one year on the tax charge. After Jasinski won “Big Brother 9” in April 2008, Ricci said Jasinski failed to file an income tax return and failed to pay taxes owed on the prize money. The series features contestants who live under constant surveillance and vote once a week to evict each other.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Zsa Zsa Gabor’s publicist says the actress is going home from the hospital, a week after doctors amputated most of her right leg. John Blanchette says doctors are pleased with Gabor’s recovery and she’ll be transported by ambulance Saturday evening back to her Bel Air mansion. Doctors at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center decided to amputate Jan. 14 when a persistent infection wouldn’t heal. She had been expected to remain in the

hospital for at least two weeks. Blanchette says the 93-year -old “Moulin Rouge” and “Queen of Outer Space” star will be monitored daily by nurses. He says Gabor is happy to be heading home. Gabor broke her hip and had replacement surgery in July. She has been hospitalized several times for swelling in her legs and blood clots throughout her body.

Ivanka Trump and husband expecting baby

NEW YORK (AP) — Ivanka Trump and her husband are expecting their first child. The “Celebrity Apprentice” co-host announced Friday on Twitter that she’s pregnant. In 2009, she married Jared Kushner, a New York real estate scion and publisher of The New York Observer weekly newspaper. The 29-year -old Trump hasn’t said when she’s due. Trump, the daughter of Donald Trump and his former wife Ivana, is a vice president at her father’s real estate company and has a jewelry company. She graduated from the University of Pennsylvania. Kushner’s father was a prominent Democratic political donor who pleaded guilty to campaign and tax law violations.

ERIN GREEN RECORD VISTAS EDITOR

Bryttini Bitner wants a laptop computer. A senior at Goddard High School, the 17-year-old is looking forward to college. But first, Bryttini, a member of Girl Scout Troop 31, plans to earn her laptop by selling Girl Scout cookies. She can earn a laptop computer — by selling 2,500 boxes of Thin Mints, Caramel deLites (formerly Samoas) and Peanut Butter Patties (formerly Tagalongs), among other varieties in the popular cookie program — but she also has her sights set on earning a trip to Disneyland in July by selling 3,000 boxes of cookies. Cookies are $3.50 a box; sales and delivery of orders are currently underway. Cookie booth sales will kick off Jan. 29 and continue through March 15. Bryttini and her sister, Rebekah, 15, have both been Girl Scouts for more than a decade. For Bryttini, being involved in Girl Scouts has been a very big, important part of her childhood and teen years — one that she will continue after graduation by assisting with the younger girls. “You get to meet a lot of new people,” Bryttini said. “It’s a great way to meet new people, make new friends, get out of the house. It’s something fun to do on the weekends.” Rebekah, a sophomore at Goddard, said she loves being a part of the Girl Scouts. “These are the times I’ll never forget,” she said. Rebekah, who has earned her Bronze and Silver Awards, wants to write a proposal to start a music camp in the hopes of earning a Gold Award, the

About the Girl Scouts Girl Scout Mission

Girl Scouting builds girls of courage, confidence and character, who make the world a better place.

Girl Scout Promise

On my honor, I will try: To serve God and my country, To help people at all times, And to live by the Girl Scout Law.

Girl Scout Law

I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, courageous and strong, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect myself and others, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout.

Daisy Girl Scout: ages 5-6; Kindergarten and first grade Brownie Girl Scout: ages 6-8; First through third grade Junior Girl Scout: ages 8-11: Third through sixth grade Cadette Girl Scout: ages 11-14; Sixth through ninth grade Senior Girl Scout: ages 14-17; Ninth through 12th grade highest honor in Girl Scouting. “Since I’m in marching band, I have the experience,” Rebekah said, adding she plays the clarinet, the bass clarinet and the synthesizer in the GHS band. In addition to her Girl Scouting activities and band, Rebekah also tutors, which also keeps her quite busy. “I rarely have a day where I just sat home,” she said. “It’s very rare that we have a weekend where we’re not doing something.” The Bitners are just two of the many

girls throughout Roswell building courage, confidence and character through Girl Scouting, said Christi Patton, director of programs for Girl Scouts of the Desert Southwest. Scouting helps girls discover the world around them, connect with themselves and others and take action to help make the world a better place, she said. Girl Scouting is open to all girls age 5 through 17; membership is $12 a year and girls may participate in a number of ways — individually,

trhough a troop or a group, by attending events and camps or through travel.

“It’s for girls, by girls and it’s girllead,” Patton said. “The girls decide what they want to do. They know what they’re doinng, where they’re going.”

A good example of this is the annual Girl Scout cookie sale, Patton said. The girls set individual and troop goals, like the Bitners did. The money raised stays within the local community to fund the girls’ goals for the year, to fund community service projects and to attend camps such as Camp Mitre Peak, and to provide events for girls in the community.

Along with the popular Thin Mints, Peanut Butter Patties and Caramel deLites, the new cookie for 2011 is the Shout Outs!, a Belgian-style caramelized cookie. The Shout Outs! are joining a line-up of cookies which also include Peanut Butter Sandwiches, Shortbreads, Thanks-A-Lots and Lemonades.

Pattons said girls also learn valuable life skills — customer service skills, decision making, money management, people skills business ethics and much more.

Troop 31 Daisy Girl Scout leader Donna O’Connor said she likes what her daughter, Sarah, 10, learns from participating in cookie sales.

“It teaches them responsibility and leadership,” she said. “They learn all sorts of things.”

Wife sees real estate venture as possible financial mess Q: I’ve found a great rental property, but my wife doesn’t want us to buy it because doing so would require going into debt. What do you think? JIM: There are so many variables involved that your best option would be to consult a financial planning or real estate expert. Specifics aside, you should know that you’re not alone — arguments over finances are one of the leading causes of marital conflict, when a mountain of debt is involved. Let’s explore the issue of debt a bit further, since that seems to be your primary sticking point. Financial experts Ron Blue and Jeremy White have noted that men and women respond to debt differently. Men tend to become workaholics as a first response to debt, even though more work and longer hours are not the answer. A wife typically wants her husband to be home more during a financial crisis, not less. Also, a husband often won’t tell his wife when he takes on more debt, because he’s afraid she’ll react negatively. Women, on the other hand, have an innate need for security, so the prospect of debt makes them anxious. Even if a husband suggests going into debt to finance a business opportunity or investment, many wives will respond negatively. Some resort to “nagging” their husbands about finances at every opportunity. This often indicates their desire for open communication on the issue. Others go to the opposite extreme, pretending the debt doesn’t exist and spending money carelessly.

DR. JULI SLATTERY

JIM DALY

FOCUS ON THE FAMILY

When it comes to finances, the husband’s basic drive to provide may conflict with his wife’s basic need for security. That is why you and your wife need to communicate with each other before debt is assumed. And no matter what you decide, make sure the decision is mutual. That will help avoid bitterness and resentment later on. ** ** ** Q: My husband is obsessed with his job. He works 50 to 60 hours a week and even when he’s home, it seems that he’s always thinking about work. Meanwhile, I’m home alone with three little kids. What do I do? JULI: What you’re describing is a typical challenge for a couple five to 10 years into marriage. Just because it’s typical doesn’t mean it’s not serious. Many marriages have fallen apart in the first decade as the husband pursues his career and the wife plunges into motherhood. You need to take care of yourself. As a busy mom with three little ones and a preoccupied husband, you must

What happens when teens unplug for 6 months?

BETH J. HARPAZ ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK (AP) — Susan Maushart lived out every parent’s fantasy: She unplugged her teenagers. For six months, she took away the Inter net, TV, iPods, cell phones and video games. The eerie glow of screens stopped lighting up the family room. Electronic devices no longer chirped through the night like “evil crickets.” And she stopped carrying her iPhone into the bathroom. The result of what she grandly calls “The Experiment” was more OMG than LOL — and nothing less than an immersion in RL (real life). As Maushart explains in a book released in the U.S. this week called “The Winter of Our Disconnect” (Penguin, $16.95), she and her kids rediscovered small pleasures — like board games, books, lazy Sundays, old photos, family meals and listening to music together instead of everyone plugging into their own iPods. Her son Bill, a videogame and TV addict, filled his newfound spare time playing saxophone. “He swapped Grand Theft Auto for the Charlie Parker songbook,” Maushart wrote. Bill says The Experiment was merely a “trigger” and he would have found his way back to music eventually. Either way, he got so serious playing sax that when the gadget ban ended, he sold his game console and is now studying music in college. Maushart’s eldest, Anni, was less wired and more bookish than the others, so her transition in and out of The Experiment was the least dramatic. Her friends thought the ban was “cool.” If she needed computers for schoolwork, she went to the library. Even now, she swears off Facebook from time to time, just for the heck of it. Maushart’s youngest daughter, Sussy, had the hardest time going off the grid. Maushart had decided to allow use of the Internet,

find some breathing room or you will continue to feel burned out and angry. Get involved in a mother’s group in your church. Trade “mommy days” with another mom just to go to the grocery store by yourself. You need a break! Also, you have to address this issue with your husband. Express to your husband how much you miss him and how you feel like you are drifting into different worlds. In these busy years, you are unlikely to have lots of time and energy for each other, but you have to stay connected. No matter the cost, schedule a date night twice a month. Be willing to hear about his work (share his world) and ask him for regular scheduled time with you and the kids (your world). Work together to find things that you enjoy doing together: cooking, exercise, a book club. You need to get back to enjoying life together. If you find that these suggestions are falling flat, it’s time for you two to get some counseling. Don’t wait until your anger has festered for several years and you can barely stand to be in the same room together. ** ** ** Jim Daly is president of Focus on the Family, host of the Focus on the Family radio program, and a husband and father of two.

TV and other electronics outside the home, and Sussy immediately took that option, taking her laptop and moving in with her dad — Maushart’s ex-husband — for six weeks. Even after she retur ned to Maushart’s home, she spent hours on a landline phone as a substitute for texts and Facebook. But the electronic deprivation had an impact anyway: Sussy’s grades improved substantially. Maushart wrote that her kids “awoke slowly from the state of cognitus interruptus that had characterized many of their waking hours to become more focused logical thinkers.” Maushart decided to unplug the family because the kids — ages 14, 15 and 18 when she started The Experiment — didn’t just “use media,” as she put it. They “inhabited” media. “They don’t remember a time before e-mail, or instant messaging, or Google,” she wrote. Like so many teens, they couldn’t do their homework without simultaneously listening to music, updating Facebook and trading instant messages. If they were amused, instead of laughing, they actually said “LOL” aloud. Her girls had become mere “accessories

of their own social-networking profile, as if real life were simply a dress rehearsal (or more accurately, a photo op) for the next status update.” Maushart admits to being as addicted as the kids. A native New Yorker, she was living in Perth, Australia, near her ex-husband, while medicating her homesickness with podcasts from National Public Radio and The New York Times online. Her biggest challenge during The Experiment was “relinquishing the ostrichlike delusion that burying my head in information and entertainment from home was just as good as actually being there.” Maushart began The Experiment with a drastic measure: She turned off the electricity completely for a few weeks — candles instead of electric lights, no hot showers, food stored in a cooler of ice. When blackout boot camp ended, Maushart hoped the “electricity is awesome!” reaction would soften the kids’ transition to life without Google and cell phones. It was a strategy that would have made Maushart’s muse, Henry David Thoreau, proud. She is a lifelong devotee of Thoreau’s classic book

“Walden,” which chronicled Thoreau’s sojourn in solitude and self-sufficiency in a small cabin on a pond in the mid-1800s. “Simplify, simplify!” Thoreau admonished himself and his readers, a sentiment Maushart echoes throughout the book. As a result of The Experiment, Maushart made a major change in her own life. In December, she moved from Australia to Long Island in New York, with Sussy. Of course, the move merely perpetuated Maushart’s need to live in two places at once: She kept her job as a columnist for an Australian newspaper and is “living on Skype” because her older children stayed Down Under to attend university. Ironically, the Internet eased the transition to America for Sussy, who used Facebook to befriend kids in her new high school before arriving. Another change for Maushart: She’s no longer reluctant to impose blackouts on Sussy’s screentime. “Instead of angsting, ’Don’t you think you’re spending too much time on the computer? Don’t you think you should do something else like reading?’ I now just take the computer away when I think she’s had enough,” Maushart said.

Givenchy lets dogs out with late menswear show Roswell Daily Record

PARIS (AP) — The 2007 Marc Jacobs show that started two hours late is stuff of fashion legend. It looked likely that Givenchy’s fall-winter 2011-2012 menswear show Friday would also pass into the annals of “la mode,” after the fuses blew, plunging the crowd of fashion insiders into the dark and delaying the show by a whopping hour-and-a-half. By the time the it got rolling, the show’s theme — mad dogs — matched the audience’s mood: Bermuda shorts and silk shirts printed with rabid Rottweilers have never looked so appropriate for an occasion. Across town — and off to a late start, thanks to Givenchy — British madcap John Galliano was up to his usual theatrical high jinx with a Rudolf Nureyevthemed collection that included a mini blizzard and sweaty, bare-torsoed ballet dancers. Utilitarian garb for the urban sophisticate was on offer at Dior Homme designer Kris Van Assche’s signature line, while Brazil’s Gustavo Lins showed off the skills he honed in architecture school. Saturday’s Paris menswear calendar includes shows by storied luxury labels Kenzo and Hermes and emerging talents Damir Doma and Ber nhard Willhelm. Menswear week concludes on Sunday, and on Monday, the City of Light’s three-daylong haute couture shows begin. GIVENCHY It’s tempting to say that never before has a show’s theme so perfectly expressed the audience’s mood. The show’s hour-and-a-half-long delay was partially due to a power outage — the

lights went out just as the first model took to the catwalk, forcing him to backtrack in the dark — but that didn’t help matters: After the show, many a frazzled fashion journalist, editor and stylist quipped, “I cannot believe I waited all that time for that.” The West Coast hip hop-inspired shirt and short ensembles — paired with tights, in a concession to winter weather — were printed with growling Rottweilers, bits of foam flying from their menacing canines. Dog collars were the naturally the accessory of choice. Fur was also de rigeur. Boxy beaver coats were worn with matching beaver backpacks and fur baseball caps, pimped up with dog ears. The label’s Italian-born designer picked up on the layered outerwear vibe that’s permeated Paris collections from Louis Vuitton to Issey Miyake, piling leather blazers on top of bulky fur coats. Riccardo T isci’s bold exploration of street style has won him a devoted fan base, and it was easy to imagine that this hip hop-infused collection would strike chord with a certain demographic in Hollywood and beyond. Just don’t ask the snarling fashion editors to like it. JOHN GALLIANO You know it’s a Galliano show when clomping Russian emigres, tin cups tied to their waists and pots and pans strapped to their backs, share the catwalk with sixties swingers in painted-on pants and sweaty ballet dancers swathed in knit leggings. Indeed, for Friday’s theatrical blockbuster of a show, the British designer

In this era of Korean barbecue food trucks, molecular gastronomy and foodie obsessions even among kindergarteners, a renewed fascination with country captain — an Americanized “curry” recipe dating back at least 154 years — seems either horribly quaint or painfully hip. You decide. Considered Southern fare for most of its long life, classic country captain combines seared chicken with bell peppers, tomatoes and bottled curry powder. Golden raisins or currants provide sweetness, and slivered almonds offer crunch. An array of condiments such as bacon, coconut, scallions, and peanuts make the dish festive. In its heyday several decades ago, county captain was a treasured staple of bridal showers and Junior League luncheons, the kind of food mentioned in the same breath as turkey tetrazzini or curried chicken salad with grapes. “It was in the artillery of the country clubs,” says Scott Peacock, former chef of Georgia’s Watershed restaurant and the protege of Souther n cooking doyenne Edna Lewis. “I think of it along with cheese straws, that there’s some representation of gentility about it.” But recently, country captain has seen new life. And new flavor. It reflects its past, but doesn’t necessarily taste much of it. Today’s country captain is more likely to have cumin than currants, asafetida than almonds. And while it is still firmly an American dish, the greater availability of formerly “exotic” spices, the proliferation of Indian restaurants, and the number of Americans who have experienced authentic Indian fare have influenced these revisions. “Americans are more willing to try new things than they ever have been,” says Andrew F. Smith, culinary historian at The New School and editor of the Oxford Encyclopedia of Food and Drink in America. “When I was growing up, you didn’t do that. If your mother didn’t serve it, you didn’t eat.” Legend holds that county captain was imported to the South by a British sea captain returned from India. But the late Cecily Brownstone, Associated

looked to dancer Rudolf Nureyev, who defected from the Soviet Union in 1961, for a collection steeped in Russian sensibility. Models in oversized fur hats and pastedon beards, various utensils tied to their body with string, opened the show, braving a blizzard of fake snow that stuck to their oversized woolen coats as they stomped down the runway. A pianist in full costume played strains of show tunes from “Fiddler on the Roof” on a mid-catwalk piano. Then came Nureyev lookalikes in swinging sixties garb, complete with printed pants and velvet vests. After that, models in clingy knit dance garb — sweat pouring from their hairlines and glistening on their

toned torsos — pranced their way along the catwalk, which was lined with ballet bars. The show closed with a band of turbaned aristocrats in harem pants made from flower printed silk — a reference, the collection notes said, to the “sumptuous decadence” of Nureyev’s later life. The show was pure Galliano, fashion in four over-the-top acts. And it wouldn’t be complete without an encore appearance by the maitre himself. Dressed in fur hat shaped like the cap of some giant mushroom, Galliano took to the stage for a cocky strut, his chest puffed out like a proud rooster as the audience hooted its approval.

Country captain: An old American dish becomes new This Dec. 12 photo shows soba noodle stir-fry in Concord, N.H.

Sunday, January 23, 2011

Press food editor for nearly 40 years until 1986, offered a Yankee provenance, tracing country captain’s roots to “Miss Leslie’s New Cookery Book,” published in Philadelphia in 1857. Brownstone’s favorite recipe came from a 1906 cookbook by Alexander Filippini, the chef at New York’s iconic Delmonico restaurant. James Beard’s “American Cookery,” considered the repository of an American food canon, offers three recipes for the dish: Miss Leslie’s, Filippini’s and Brownstone’s. Fashionable from the 1950s on, country captain peaked in the 1960s and 70s with myriad recipes in newspaper food columns, then ran aground in the 1980s. But during the last few years, magazines, cookbooks and even television chefs have registered renewed fascination with the dish. Food Network stars Emeril Lagasse and Rachel Ray have offered their interpretations, and in 2009 Bobby Flay challenged competitors to a country captain “throwdown.” And though hardly a deluge, during the last five years country captain recipes have resurfaced in cookbooks, according to research provided by the cookbooktracking site Eat Your Books, with as many as eight recipes published a year. Some chefs and food experts attribute the renewed attention to the food industry’s constant search for the next under exploited dish. Others say country captain never really went away. “These dishes seem to go in cycles,” says Jack Bishop, editorial director for Cook’s Country magazine, which ran a feature story on country captain in February 2010. “This had a history that went on for several decades. There’s a reason a dish lives that long, and it’s because people think it tastes good.” But apparently not good enough. Indian food is the fastest growing segment of the ethnic food market, according to a 2009 survey by the market research group Mintel, making its once mysterious flavors more commonplace on American tables. The reincarnated country captain tends to reflect that with spices and techniques that are more authentically Indian.

Mine fields circle holy site

QASR EL-YAHUD, West Bank (AP) — Just months before the official opening of one of Christianity’s holiest sites to visitors, the area where John the Baptist is said to have baptized Jesus remains surrounded by thousands of land mines. Israel says the sites visited by pilgrims and tourists in an area known as Qasr elYahud will be safe, but advocacy groups warn that crowds could be in danger. On Tuesday, some 15,000 Christian pilgrims marched between two fenced-in mine fields to reach the Epiphany ceremony led by the Greek Orthodox patriarch on the Jordan River, 5 miles east of the oasis town of Jericho at the edge of the West Bank. Worshippers from around the world dipped themselves in the muddy waters, facing fellow believers on the other side of the small river. Orthodox clergymen dressed in dark frocks and robes chanted prayers as Patriarch Theofilos III blessed the waters, hurled branches and released white doves into the air. This site is Christianity’s third holiest — after the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem, on the spot where Christian belief says Jesus was crucified and resurrected, and the Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, where tradition holds Jesus was born — and the baptism marks the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry. Since Israel took control of the area in

the 1967 Mideast war, pilgrims have had to coordinate their visits with the Israeli military, because of security concerns and leftover land mines. The ancient churches and monasteries on the Israeli side, some dating back to the fourth century, are surrounded by signs reading “Danger! Mines!” “Since it was a border, the place is really littered by hundreds and hundreds of mines, and therefore the area is not open to the public and to the believers and pilgrims,” said Avner Goren, an archaeologist who works with Israel’s Tourism Ministry. The ministry says about 60,000 people visit each year, but with the upcoming official opening that number is expected to rise to the millions. No date for the opening has been set. The Israeli military says the baptism site and adjacent churches are located in a “completely mine-free zone,” and insists “no danger is posed to tourists or worshippers.” “The (military) regularly clears away minefields in the Jordan River Valley, and in the last year alone approximately 8,000 mines have been removed from the area,” the military said in a statement. Dhyan Or, the Israel director of a global anti-mining advocacy group said there are half a million mines in the Jordan Valley — an area prone to floods. He warned that land mines could drift from the fenced areas, and that overzealous worshippers could stray from the marked paths.

Chile’s president acts on dream of riverfront park

SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — President Sebastian Pinera is determined to fulfill an old dream: turning the river that once carried sewage through the center of the capital into a navigable waterway, lined with parks and attractions. Inspired by the transformation of Barcelona, Spain, before its Olympic games, Pinera hopes to encourage a greening of Santiago’s most gritty neighborhoods with the Mapocho river project, which is finally beginning in earnest and is expected to be completed before he leaves office in 2014. “We came to the conclusion that Santiago’s soul, its backbone, was the Mapocho river, which we had abandoned tremendously,” Pinera said recently as he laid the first stone in the initial $28 million phase of the project — a riverside park to be financed with private donations. “We want to transfor m the Mapocho river into a more welcoming gathering place, pleasant and full of life.” The river, which runs for 21 miles through the capital, was turned into a concrete trench many years ago and stopped serving as Santiago’s open sewer

only last year, when a treatment system was installed to collect wastewater. Long stretches of the Mapocho’s banks are lined with garbage, and homeless people live under some of its bridges. A relatively shallow but rapidly gushing and dangerous flow of water rushes down the middle of the canal year -round, swelling to considerable depths only with the snowmelt from the nearby Andean mountains that for m Santiago’s dramatic horizon. The riverside park project should become a big attraction for Santiago’s citizens. Slowing a section of the river with a system of five locks, the idea is to feed a lagoon where people can row around in small boats. There also will be a large swimming pool, green spaces for picnics, a huge fountain and a Ferris wheel. Pinera has dreamed about this project for a long time and went public with the idea in 1990, asking his architect friend Cristian Boza to develop plans. At the time, the center-left government scoffed at the idea, and the project was shelved. Many doubted the river could ever be navigable. As soon as he became president last March, the billionaire

PROMISES, PROMISES:

Scrutiny of Afghan no-bid deal WASHINGTON (AP) — The U.S. awarded a no-bid, $266 million contract for a lucrative electricity project in southern Afghanistan despite promising last year to seek competitive bids, The Associated Press has learned. The U.S. Agency for International Development made the change despite criticism over how it has managed billions of dollars spent on reconstruction contracts. In January 2010, the agency said companies would compete for the project, which was awarded to Black & Veatch Corp. of Overland Park, Kan. USAID had chastised the company for cost overruns and busted deadlines on a diesel-fueled power plant in Kabul. But the U.S. let 10 months pass before deciding to award a contract without competitive bids, saying that it couldn’t spend more time seeking offers. A rival company that was interested in bidding, Symbion Power LLC of Washington, D.C., said USAID broke its promise and spent more than it should to expand electricity into Helmand and Kandahar provinces. “I was stunned because of the cost of it,” Symbion chief executive Paul Hinks said. The no-bid contract comes as the independent Commission on Wartime Contracting is examining how wisely billions of U.S. money is being spent and how well contractors are being supervised in Afghanistan. USAID and Black & Veatch executives are scheduled to testify Monday at a commission hearing. USAID opted against seeking competitive proposals “to meet the tight timelines required to have an urgent impact,” the agency said in a statement to the AP. Black & Veatch defended its selection for the work without competition. “The cost of this contract is entirely reasonable” and includes multiple projects in a large area subjected to intense conflict, the company said in a statement. During the 2008 presidential campaign, Barack Obama criticized the Bush administration for awarding con-

Roswell Daily Record

tracts without competition, a practice he said cost the U.S. billions of dollars each year. Once in office, Obama didn’t prohibit sole-source contracts, saying agencies needed the flexibility to tailor contracts to meet their needs. Hinks, who has previously fought against Black & Veatch over contract issues on the troubled power plant in Kabul, said his company successfully completed more energy projects for less money at the height of fighting in Iraq. Symbion handled about $250 million in Defense Department projects in that country, including building 11 power substations and nearly 300 miles of transmission lines. Hinks said USAID could have received a better deal. The agency had to discuss the project for months with Black & Veatch to craft a no-bid agreement and should have sought proposals at that time from other companies working in the region, he said. Agency officials told Hinks in several e-mails last year that Symbion and other companies would have the chance to bid on the work. “USAID intends to procure services through a full and open competitive procurement process and Symbion is invited to submit a proposal,” William Frej, then the agency’s Afghanistan director, wrote to Symbion in February 2010. In November, USAID changed course, saying Black & Veatch would receive the no-bid contract because the company already was working on USAID energy projects. Under the latest contract for work in southern Afghanistan, Black & Veatch will upgrade electrical distribution in Kandahar city, install diesel generators, rebuild power substations and install a third hydro-electric turbine generator to the Kajaki Dam in Helmand province.

ambitious projects before — in 2006, he and students developed a plan to remodel Havana’s Malecon waterfront.

Juarez maquiladoras recovering

CIUDAD JUAREZ, Mexico (AP) — Despite a weak U.S. economy and a drug war that has turned this city into Mexico’s deadliest, the maquiladoras are on the rebound. These assembly-for-export plants, which crank out everything from brake pads to plasma TVs for U.S. companies, are opening new facilities, expanding existing ones and hiring more employees. Some firms looking for lower costs have even begun shifting production from China back to Juarez. The recovery of approximately 350 maquiladoras is the single bright spot in a city where drug violence has killed 7,000 people in three years. The maquiladoras may also be a sign that the economy in the region is finally turning the corner, after gross domestic product for Mexico as a whole shrank by almost 7 percent in 2009, the worst contraction in decades. “There’s some real competing realities in Juarez at the moment,” said Bob Cook, president of the Regional Economic Commission in El Paso, Texas, Juarez’s cross-border sister city. “The violence has not targeted our industry, and the cartels ... have not destroyed all the advantages of doing business there.” Unemployment for Juarez is high, at 7 percent compared to Mexico’s national average of 5.4 percent. But plants that furloughed employees in 2008 and 2009 are now offering overtime as well as jobs.

Pillar of Italy Jewish society dies

ROME (AP) — Tullia Zevi, a pillar of Italy’s Jewish community and an ardent anti-fascist who spent the war years in exile in Switzerland, France and the U.S., died Saturday. She was 91. Zevi, the only female president of the Union of Italian Jewish Communities, died in Rome, current union president Renzo Gattegna said. One of four children of a bourgeois Jewish family, Zevi was vacationing with her parents in Switzerland in 1938 when Italy passed its racial laws. The family, known for her father’s anti-fascist beliefs, moved to France and later the U.S. as World War II raged. She returned to Italy in 1946 and worked as a journalist as well as with various center-left political parties. In a biographical article she wrote in 1999, Zevi said she returned because she wanted to help Italy and its Jews rebuild after the war. “The horrors of the war had just been discovered; the mass extermination of the Jews, the gypsies and political opponents, the devastation of Jewish communities,” she wrote. “It seemed right, having had the fortune of having survived, to return and participate in the reconstruction of this traumatized community in chaos, and also to participate in the rebirth of democracy in Italy following the defeat of fascism.”

Thousands protest in Yemen

ADEN, Yemen (AP) — Drawing inspiration from the revolt in Tunisia, thousands of Yemenis fed up with their president’s 32-year rule demanded his ouster Saturday in a noisy demonstration that appeared to be the first large-scale public challenge to the strongman. Clashes also broke out Saturday in Algeria, as opposition activists there tried to copy the tactics of their Tunisian neighbors, who forced their longtime leader to flee the country more than a week ago. The protests in Yemen appeared to be the first of their kind. The nation’s 23 million citizens have many grievances: they are the poorest people in the Arab world, the government is widely seen as corrupt and is reviled for its alliance with the United States in fighting al-Qaida, there are few political freedoms and the country is rapidly running out of water. Still, calling for President Ali Abdullah Saleh to step down had been a red line that few dissenters dared to test. In a reflection of the tight grip Saleh’s government and its forces have in the capital — outside the city, that control thins dramatically — Saturday’s demonstration did not take place in the streets, but was confined to the grounds of the University of Sanaa.

Palestinian charged with insulting leader online

Palestinian reporter Mamdouh Hamamreh at his home in the West Bank, Saturday.

RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) — A reporter tagged in a Facebook image that mocked the Palestinian president said Saturday he faces trial for insulting a public figure, raising concerns about freedom of speech in the Western-backed Palestinian Authority. Mamdouh Hamamreh, who works for the pro-Hamas AlQuds TV, said security forces detained him in September, just hours after the image appeared on his Facebook feed. The picture showed President Mahmoud Abbas — a Hamas rival — standing next to an actor who plays a villain on a popular Syrian soap opera, the reporter said. Hamamreh said he was held for more than 50 days in a Palestinian lockup after the picture appeared on his feed. He said he had nothing to do with

the image. He was released in November and says a hearing has been set for next month. “I censor myself now,” Hamamreh said. “I’m careful of what I say.” Facebook allows people to tag images, video clips or articles so they automatically appear on another person’s profile with that person’s name attached. The second person can remove the item. Abbas’ security forces have previously mined social networks to catch dissenters. In November, an atheist blogger was arrested after posting incendiary comments about Islam on Facebook. His forces also have cracked down frequently on West Bankbased loyalists of Hamas, the Islamic militant group that seized control of Gaza in 2007

after routing Abbas’ fighters. Gaza’s Hamas rulers have also gone after Abbas supporters and other opponents, including reporters. Riham Abu Aita, a media rights activist, said about 30 reporters were detained in the West Bank and Gaza in 2009, but did not have figures yet for 2010. Ghassan Khatib, spokesman for the Abbas government, said there is considerable free speech in the West Bank but special circumstances needed to be taken into account — an apparent reference to the bitter rivalry between Abbas and Hamas. In another development, European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said she “deplores” the continued imprisonment of prominent Palestinian activist Abdullah Abu Rahmeh by Israel. Since 2005, Abu Rah-

meh has been a key figure in weekly protests against Israel’s separation barrier which cuts into West Bank land. In Friday’s statement, she said the Palestinians have the right to engage in peaceful demonstrations. He was to have been released Nov. 18, after serving his yearlong sentence. However, earlier this month, an Israeli military court extended his sentence by four months following a request by a military prosecutor. Israel has portrayed the weekly protests as violent riots. Routinely, Palestinian demonstrators throw stones at Israeli forces who fire tear gas, stun grenades, rubber bullets and at times live rounds.

Obama says opening markets key to jobs

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says one of the most important things he can do to create jobs and help U.S. businesses is to open up more markets around the world to American goods. Warming up for a State of the Union address that is expected to focus on jobs and the economy, Obama said Saturday in his weekly radio and Internet address that getting access to foreign markets is the reason he met with China’s President Hu Jintao at the White House this week. During the summit, China announced $45 billion in contracts and said it would increase its investments in the U.S. by several billion dollars — deals that Obama said will support 235,000 American jobs. A newly inked trade deal with South Korea and recent agreements with India will also boost U.S. exports, Obama said. Obama spoke the day after a quick visit to a General Electric plant in Schenectady, N.Y., that is producing steam turbines and generators for a project stemming from one of the India deals. He also lauded GE’s plans to build a clean energy center, an advanced battery manufacturing plant and other state-of-the-art facilities in that economically battered city in upstate New York — all projects he said would create jobs and help make the United States

more competitive globally. “Leading the world in innovation, opening new markets to American products — that’s how we’ll create jobs today,” Obama said. “That’s how we’ll make America more competitive tomorrow. And that’s how we’ll win the future.” Efforts to create jobs and help America compete with the rest of the world are expected to be major themes of the annual State of the Union address Obama will deliver Tuesday night to a joint session of Congress. In Schenectady, Obama also announced that he had named Jeff Immelt, the chief executive of GE, to chair a new advisory panel that will generate ideas to keep the economy growing. “Here’s the truth about today’s economy,” Obama said. “If we’re serious about fighting for American jobs and American businesses, one of the most important things we can do is open up more markets to American goods around the world.” Republicans devoted their weekly message to the party’s promise to repeal the landmark health care law Obama signed last year. That effort got under way this week when the House voted 253-175 to wipe it off the books. That sent the bill to the Senate. Speak-

John Barrasso of Wyoming called for a vote. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has said he will not schedule one. “Thanks to the vote in the House of Representatives, we are now one step closer to

victory in the fight for a health care policy that puts Americans first — not Washington,” said Barrasso, an orthopedic surgeon. “Our job won’t be done until we repeal and replace this bad law,” he said.

Lawmakers’ soft words hide spending cuts’ pain

WASHINGTON (AP) — Terms like “cutting spending” and “raising taxes,” though they sound straightforward enough, are becoming battlegrounds in the Republicans’ and Democrats’ bids to frame the debate over how to cope with the growing national debt. Newly empowered congressional Republicans are playing down the big impact their proposed spending cuts would have on millions of Americans, according to Democrats and some bipartisan groups. Prominent Republicans, for instance, have said a return to 2008 spending levels would not amount to “cutting,” even though billions of federal dollars would be lopped off. Another GOP leader minimized the economic impact of firing thousands of federal workers, saying overall employment would rise. Bill Hoagland, a former Republican budget aide now with the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, said many elected officials are misleading the public. It’s easy to say that eliminating “waste, fraud and abuse” will balance the budget, he said, but the huge programs that must be reined in include Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, which

are barely being discussed. People talk about “cutting the government,” Hoagland said, “but the real problems come right out of our pockets.” That’s true of those “entitlement” programs, he said, as well as federal highways, border security, education and other programs. Although Republicans are leading the budget talks for now, Democrats also have been coy about fiscal realities. They have defined the middle class as families making up to $250,000, and said a return to higher Bush-era tax rates would not constitute a tax increase. And both parties have given only lip service to addressing the most costly and fast-growing programs cited by Hoagland: Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. House conservatives have vowed to slash domestic programs even more deeply than their party leaders have proposed. The Republican Study Committee, whose conservatives comprise about three-fourths of all House Republicans, called Thursday for bringing domestic agency budgets to their 2006 levels. That’s about a $175 billion cut from current levels, and roughly $90 billion more than the cuts

promised by Republicans last fall. The proposed cuts, which Senate Democrats are likely to soften or reject, would fall entirely on “discretionary” programs like education, environmental protection, agriculture and the Justice Department. Left untouched would be the military, homeland security, Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. Some Republicans, however, have said they are now willing to put the military on the cutting board, too. The GOP study committee would reduce Pell Grants and eliminate entire programs, all of which have advocates in Congress and elsewhere. They include the national endowments for the arts and the humanities; the Legal Services Corporation, which provides legal help to people who can’t afford a lawyer; Amtrak subsidies; and community development grants popular with local officials. The White House says the plan would force the firing of about 3,000 food inspectors, 4,000 FBI agents, 800 Alcohol Tobacco and Firear ms agents, 1,500 drug enforcement agents, 900 U.S. marshals and 5,700 correctional officers. National unemployment, at 9.4 percent, is a chief worry for both

Local dairy business earns premium plus rating

Current concern for the environment led Jack Pirtle to open the Pirtle & Sons LLC to an independent environmental evaluation by the Daily Quality Center. The results of the on-site review were good news for the environment, the community and the 78,000 people who rely upon Pirtle & Sons LLC for milk every day. The Pirtle & Sonds LLC has earned the prestigious “Producer of Sustainable Milk & Beef” designation that accompanies the Verified Premium Plus recognition or highest level of attainment for dairy business by the DQ Center. Earning this distinction is based upon an on-site Walk-Through by a licensed veterinarian. The Pirtle & Sons LLC was reviewed by Robert Bamberg, DVM, a professional consultant for the DQ Center located in Stratford, Iowa. Water test analyses, feed component tests, nutrient tests of manure, and soil tests were the foundation of the impact on the environment evaluation. These science-based tests were blended with a subjective third party review of air quality,

noise level evaluation, attention to facility appearance, animal health and worker safety. The Verified Premium Plus designation will be in effect for one year. The quality assurance program has been in place for the dairy industry since 1990. Over twenty thousand dairy operations have been independently reviewed for quality assurance, and only a select few have been designated as Verified Premium Plus dairy businesses. The owner, employees and community are to be congratulated for encouraging a sustainable environmentally-friendly industry such as Pirtle & Sons LLC to flourish in their community. This accomplishment by Pirtle & Sons LLC puts actions behind the DQ Center’s slogan: “Milk— Good for you, Good for the Environment!” The Pirtle & Sons LLC is owned by Randy Pirtle and located near Roswell. For more information on quality assurance, contact the DQ Center at 800-5532479 or vpp@agri-ed.com.

parties. Ohio Rep. Jim Jordan, who chairs the Republican Study Committee, suggested that cutting the government will boost overall employment, even when it involves big federal layoffs. “We actually think, if you reduce federal gover nment spending, you help create jobs, you help foster a framework and an environment where the real job-creators can do what they do, create jobs and improve our economy,” he told reporters Thursday. His office said it’s not aware of studies directly addressing the issue, but it believes “government spending takes money out of the private economy that could otherwise be used by families and businesses with more efficiency, innovation, and lasting job creation.” Rules Committee Chair man David Dreier, R-Calif., defended the House GOP leadership’s earlier call for somewhat less dramatic spending reductions, which would return most non-military agencies to 2008 levels. “We’re not talking about cutting,” Dreier told his committee. “We’re talking about getting to ‘08 levels, which provides a high level of funding for (health research), Pell Grants and for food and drug safety.”

Lawrence Brothers IGA win honor, 2nd year in a row

CHICAGO, Ill.— IGA today announced that Roswell-based Lawrence Brothers IGA and owner Jay Lawrence have been awarded the IGA Five Star honor for achievement in IGA’s Assessment Program. Five Star is the highest level of recognition possible under the Assessment Program’s rigorous standards. The IGA Assessment Program focuses on store appearance and product quality, employee training, customer service, engagement in IGA consumer -focused marketing events, and support and involvement in the local community. The IGA Assessment Program involves four unrevealed and one revealed assessment within the course of a year, and also incorporates a customer feedback component. “IGA’s customers know that when they shop at IGA, they’re supporting not only their local independent retailer, but their community as a whole,” IGA CEO Mark Batenic said. “The heart and soul of IGA retailing is providing our customers with

Lack of rain means wheat crop in jeopardy CLOVIS (AP) — Warm days and little rain mean the winter wheat crop in eastern New Mexico’s Roosevelt and Curry counties is in jeopardy. Farmers in the area say the crop has suffered badly two months into the growing season. If rain doesn’t arrive soon, much of the crop may fail. Rick Ledbetter, a cotton and alfalfa farmer in Roosevelt County, said the situation with wheat crops is not yet serious. He said if local farmers do not see precipitation in the next several weeks, the situation could become dire. “If we don’t get some moisture, we won’t be able to harvest the wheat,” Ledbetter said. “We’ll see some effects on our summer crops, too, if we don’t get some moisture.” Ledbetter said he can visibly see the difference in his dry land crops versus those irrigated, but the dry land wheat is still alive. The young wheat just isn’t growing.

Under the GOP leaders’ proposals, funds to pay Food and Drug Administration workers would fall by 35 percent, more than $1 billion. College Pell Grants would be cut by more than $1,000 from the current $5,550 maximum. Chad Stone, chief economist for the liberal Center for Budget and Policy Priorities, said it’s misleading to contend that those are not cuts. Federal budgets have grown in recent years partly because of population growth, recessionfueled public needs and modest inflation, he said. “Going back to an earlier level is absolutely a cut,” Stone said. In the Capitol Friday, some lawmakers and advocates scoffed at the proposed spending cuts, saying many of them will face powerful defenders of the targeted programs. The GOP study committee would ax the Appalachian Regional Commission, saving $76 million a year. The office of Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell, whose home state of Kentucky includes parts of Appalachia, did not respond to a query about the proposed cut.

Curry County commissioner and wheat farmer Frank Blackburn said he has never seen such a dry season in his 60 years in the county but that there’s time for rain to help the crop recover. “I haven’t given up yet,” Blackburn said. “There’s still plenty of time. We need moisture by at least April 1...” Blackburn said his main concern is wind erosion, because wheat crops are not large enough to withstand harsh, dry winds. Another Roosevelt County farmer, Kevin Breshears, said winter kill is what farmers will be facing if their wheat crops do not get moisture soon. “If we don’t get any moisture in the next 30 days, it’s gonna get serious,” Breshears said. “This is a classic La Nina year.” Breshears said the Great Plains area is the largest hard, red winter wheat producer in the U.S. “We really won’t know what damage we have until (the wheat) starts breaking dormancy in the next 30 days,” he said.

the very best level of service along with a personalized, community-focused experience. Lawrence Brothers is a shinning example of a store that is elevating the power of the IGA Brand by providing a total customer experience. We’re proud of Jay Lawrence and Lawrence Brothers IGA achievement and thank all the customers who inspired the Lawrence Brothers team to be the best.” “We at Lawrence Brothers IGA are so proud to be Roswell’s Five Star IGA,” Blake Meek, store director, said. “We achieved this honor by working as a team to meet the needs of our customers.” IGA is the world’s largest voluntary supermarket network with aggregate worldwide retail sales of more than $21 billion per year. The Alliance includes nearly 5,500 Hometown Proud Supermarkets worldwide, supported by 36 distribution companies and more than 55 major manufacturers, vendors and suppliers encompassing everything from grocery to equipment items.

GM adding 650-plus jobs at Mich. plant

DETROIT (AP) — A person familiar with the plan says General Motors Co. is adding a shift and more than 650 jobs at its assembly plant in Flint. The person spoke Saturday to The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because the announcement had not yet been publicly made. An announcement is scheduled for Monday. The Detroit News reported earlier Saturday about GM’s planned investment in the Flint plant. The plant builds the heavy-duty Chevrolet and GMC Sierra crew and regular cab trucks and the light-duty Chevrolet Silverado crew and regular cab trucks. Flint is the birthplace of GM and once was a powerful auto manufacturing town, but its economy and population have steadily declined over the past few decades. It’s about 50 miles northwest of Detroit.

Franzen, Smith nominees for critics awards

NEW YORK (AP) — Jonathan Franzen is back in the awards circle. Franzen’s “Freedom,” among last year’s most highly praised novels, is a finalist for the National Book Critics Circle awards. Franzen had been bypassed for the National Book Awards, judged by fellow authors, but was an obvious choice for a prize voted on by reviewers, many of whom placed “Freedom” on their annual best-of lists. None of the fiction nominees for the National Book Award, including winner Jaimy Gordon’s “Lord of Misrule,” was chosen for the critics circle prize. The 31 nominees in six competitive categories (autobiography has six finalists) announced Sat-

urday were an inter national blend of popular authors such as Franzen, Christopher Hitchens and Patti Smith and the kind of lesser-known picks critics pride themselves on, such as GermanDutch novelist Hans Keilson, 101 years old, and cited for the acclaimed “Comedy in a Key.” Finalists were published by Random House Inc., Simon & Schuster and other major New York houses, and by McSweeney’s, Graywolf Press and the Feminist Press. Winners will be announced March 10. There are no cash prizes. Nominees also included Jennifer Egan’s novel “A Visit From the Goon Squad,” Isabel Wilker-

son’s history “The War mth of Other Suns” and memoirs by Hitchens (“Hitch-22”) and Smith, whose “Just Kids” won an NBA for nonfiction. Books written in foreign languages but available in English translation also are eligible, so fiction finalists besides Egan and Franzen included Keilson and Israel’s David Grossman for “To the End of the Land.” The fifth nominee was Irish novelist Paul Murray for “Skippy Dies.” The nonfiction choices were Wilkerson, S.C. Gwynne’s “Empire of the Summer Moon,” Jennifer Homans’ ballet history “Apollo’s Angels,” Barbara Demick’s “Nothing to Envy” and Siddhartha Mukherjee’s “The Emperor of All Maladies.”

Subjects in the biography category included Somerset Maugham, Crazy Horse and Charlie Chan. The finalists were Sarah Bakewell’s “How to Live, or a Life of Montaigne”; Selina Hastings’ “The Secret Lives of Somerset Maugham”; Yunte Huang’s “Charlie Chan”; Thomas Powers’ “The Killing of Crazy Horse”; and Tom Segev’s “Simon Wiesenthal.” Besides Hitchens and Smith, autobiography nominees were Darin Strauss’ “Half a Life”; David Dow’s “The Autobiography of an Execution”; Rahna Reiko Rizzuto’s “Hiroshima in the Morning”; and Kai Bird’s “Crossing Mandelbaum Gate.” Former U.S. poet laureate Kay Ryan (“The Best of It”) and prize-

winning poet-translator Anne Carson (“Nox”) were poetry finalists, along with Kathleen Graber’s “The Eter nal City,” Terrance Hayes’ “Lighthead” and C.D. Wright’s “One with Others.” Finalists for criticism were Terry Castle’s “The Professor and Other Writings”; Ander Monson’s “Vanishing Point”; Elif Batuman’s “The Possessed”; Susan Linfield’s “The Cruel Radiance”; and Clare Cavanagh’s “L yric Poetry and Modern Politics.” Two honorary awards will be presented. Parul Sehgal has won the Nona Balakian Citation for Excellence in Reviewing, while the Ivan Sandrof Lifetime Achievement Award goes to the Dalkey Archive Press.

Olbermann and MSNBC: a failing relationship NEW YORK (AP) — Keith Olber mann’s exit from MSNBC appeared abrupt to viewers of his show, but the talk-show host and his network were involved “in a relationship that’s been failing for a long time,” an NBC Universal executive said Saturday. Olbermann’s announcement at the end of Friday’s “Countdown” that it would be his last show quiets, at least for the moment, the most dominant liberal voice in a cable-television world where opinionated talk has been the most bankable trend over the past several years. As Olber mann read from a James Thurber short story during a threeminute exit statement Friday night, MSNBC simultaneously e-mailed a statement to reporters that the network and host “have ended their contract.” Neither indicated a reason nor addressed whether Olbermann quit or was fired. But the NBC Universal executive characterized it as a mutual parting of the ways, with Olber mann taking the first step. The executive spoke on condition of anonymity because settlement talks were kept confidential. Olbermann was nearly fired in November but instead was suspended for two days without pay for violating an NBC News policy by donating to three political campaigns, including the congressional campaign of Arizona Rep. Gabrielle Giffords. He returned and apologized to his fans, but not the network. Last fall, Olber mann saw his role on NBC’s ‘Sunday Night Football” eliminated. Olbermann, a former sports anchor, had willingly worked six days a week to be involved with the highly rated football telecast. NBC said he was removed so he could concentrate on his MSNBC job. MSNBC spokesman Jeremy Gaines insisted Olber mann’s exit had nothing to do with the

acquisition of parent company NBC Universal by Comcast, which received regulatory approval Tuesday. That deal marks the exit of NBC Universal chief Jeff Zucker, who saw Olber mann’s value in turning around a onceunprofitable network, despite headaches the mercurial personality sometimes caused his bosses. Olber mann and his manager did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Saturday. One clue Olber mann of fered in his goodbye statement was that he’d “been told” that Friday was his last show. But Olbermann also said that “there were many occasions, particularly in the last 2 1/2 years, where all that surrounded the show — but never the show itself — was just too much for me. But your support and loyalty and, if I may use the word, insistence, ultimately required that I keep going. My gratitude to you is boundless.” “He did more than anybody to establish the credibility of progressive views through market-driven success,” said David Brock, founder and CEO of the left-wing media watchdog Media Matters for America. Olbermann’s show was also an incubator for leftwing talent on the air, he said. Two-thirds of MSNBC’s prime-time lineup, Rachel Maddow and Lawrence O’Donnell, got their own shows after successfully subbing for Olbermann. His show also gave platforms to bloggers like Josh Marshall and Markos Moulitsas, as well as his own organization and the Center for American Progress, Brock said. “Countdown” took off at a time when there was a large imbalance toward conservatives in radio and television political talk, Brock said. “Keith led the way in correcting that,” he said. “Now we’re back to some degree of the balance going the other way.” After Giffords was shot in the head on Jan. 8,

In this May 3, 2007 file photo, Keith Olbermann of MSNBC poses at the Ronald Reagan Library in Simi Valley, Calif. Olbermann came into the studio and took to the air on his day of f with an emotional editorial saying politicians and talk-show personalities — including himself — need to swear of f any kind of violent imagery so as not to incite anybody into acts like the Giffords shooting. He said on Jan. 10 that he was ending his “Worst Person in the World” feature because some viewers took literally a feature that was “born in humor.” The after math of the Giffords shooting led to a discussion about the need for more civility in political talk, but Olbermann made no mention of that issue on Friday night. MSNBC is replacing him with

O’Donnell and moving anchor Ed Schultz into the 10 p.m. time slot and, along with Maddow, all of them swing left politically. Phil Griffin, MSNBC’s chief executive, expressed confidence in his new lineup Saturday while declining to talk about what happened with Olbermann. “They’re tested,” he said. “We didn’t have to bring anyone here who is new. We brought in people we know and who will succeed and that’s why we’re confident going forward.” Anyone who expects the volume of political rhetoric on MSNBC will go down will be “rudely surprised” in about a week, said

others. Someone even could toss money into the mix in an attempt at manipulation. The only way to win this is to not play the game. Tonight: Nothing complicated.

Don’t allow someone to coerce you by throwing around his or her weight. Tonight: Balance your checkbook. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Once more, someone reveals his or her inner agenda. You sometimes get tired of having the same conversation. As a result, coldness emanates from you. Stay in touch with your desires. Be willing to state your feelings. Tonight: In your element.

Brent Bozell, founder of the conservative watchdog Media Research Center. O’Donnell “is every bit as mean-spirited (as Olbermann), but not as creative,” Bozell said. “I don’t think the philosophy of MSNBC will change one iota.” While he disagreed with most everything Olbermann said, “he had probably the best-produced show on television,” Bozell said. That’s the danger for MSNBC and liberals — Olber mann may be replaced by someone who has the same viewpoints, but not necessarily with a show people are as eager to watch. “I’m not in the slightest bit surprised” by Olber-

mann’s exit, Bozell said. “I’ve been expecting this to happen for a long time. But I was expecting a more spectacular blowup.” Olbermann’s peripatetic career landed him at MSNBC eight years ago — his second prime-time stint on the network — with a humorous show counting down the day’s top stories. That changed on Aug. 30, 2006, when Olbermann aired the first of a series of densely wor ded and blistering “special comments,” this time expressing anger at then-Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld’s criticism of opponents to the war in Iraq. More anti-Bush administration commentary followed. Olber mann dropped any pretense of journalistic objectivity, and he became a hero to liberals battered by the popularity of Fox News Channel and its conservative commentators. Olbermann openly feuded with Fox, often naming personalities like Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck “worst persons in the world” for some of their statements. “Countdown” became MSNBC’s most popular show. Instantly, a network that had often floundered in seeking a direction molded itself after Olbermann. The Cor nell graduate first became known for his work on ESPN’s “Sportscenter,” where he also cultivated a reputation for being talented but difficult to work with. His first MSNBC stint ended in the late 1990s when he quit, complaining his bosses wer e telling him to talk too much about Pr esident Bill Clinton’s impeachment scandal. Olbermann’s plans are unclear. He signed a fouryear contract with MSNBC two years ago; contract buyouts typically include noncompete clauses that keep a personality off TV for a period of time.

lations will remain ineffective. Meetings point you in a new direction. Don’t hesitate to act rather than talk. Avoid thinking about an argument. You need to focus. Tonight: Where people are; not alone. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You are at a point where you would like to shed some of your responsibility. Your priorities are rapidly changing and, as a result, what you want to do with your time will change. Allow this transformation to emerge. Tonight: Burning the candle at both ends. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Reach out for more information and different opinions. Many people would fear this type of diversity, as it would take away or nullify their plan. You welcome knowledge. This increasing information can only make a project or your life better. Tonight: Find an outlet for your high energy. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Work with key people individually, allowing a greater give-and-take of ideas. Resist bigger meetings at the moment. Take some time to sift through different suggestions. How sound are they? Curb a tendency to sit on anger, as you are likely to express it in an inappropriate manner. Tonight: Catch up on a roommate’s or loved one’s day.

Pakistani actress slams cleric for criticism ISLAMABAD (AP) — A Pakistani actress castigated for appearing to cuddle with an Indian actor on a reality show lashed out at a Muslim cleric who had criticized her during a widely watched television exchange this week. The unusual outburst, punctuated by tears, came at a sensitive time in a country where Islamic fundamentalism is spreading and liberals are increasingly afraid to express their views. “What is your problem with me? You tell me your problem!” an angry Veena Malik asked the Muslim scholar, who accused her of insulting Islam. Earlier this month, a liberal Pakistani governor was shot dead for opposing the country’s harsh laws against blasphemy. In the aftermath, his killer was cheered as a hero among many in the public, shocking the country’s small liberal establishment. Malik, 26, participated recently on Bigg Boss, an Indian version of “Big Brother.” Clips of

the show on the Internet include ones in which she appears cozy with Indian actor Ashmit Patel. Those scenes, and her involvement with a show in Pakistan’s archrival India, prompted criticism online and on the air. “You have insulted Pakistan and Islam,” Mufti Abdul Qawi accused her on the Express TV channel talk show via a television link. The exchange first aired Friday and then again Saturday. A furious Malik shot back, saying Qawi targeted her because she is a woman, reminding him that the Quran admonishes men not to stare at a woman’s beauty beyond a first glance, and telling him there were bigger problems in Pakistan, including the alleged rape of children at mosques. During the exchange, Qawi admitted he had not seen the clips of the show but had heard about it from others. “What does your Islam say, mufti sir?” the actress asked. “You issue edicts on the basis of hearsay.”
