More states grant in-state tuition to immigrants

WASHINGTON (AP) — Giancarlo Tello paid $14,000 more than other New Jersey high school graduates to attend Rutgers University, the state’s flagship public college. Why the difference? Tello spent much of his childhood in the U.S. without legal permission after his parents moved from Peru when he was 6. That changes if he reenrolls this fall, as he plans, thanks to a law recently signed by New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie that provides in-state tuition to immigrants like him. Supporters of immigrants’ rights are energized

because after years of contentious fights, New Jersey and three other states passed statutes last year that will allow such students who came to the U.S. when they were minors to pay in-state tuition.

Fifteen states now have such a statute, said Ann Morse of the National Conference of State Legislatures. In addition, university boards in Hawaii, Michigan and Rhode Island have granted these students instate tuition. To qualify, high school graduates typically must meet requirements such as living in a state for a set number of years.

Florida, Indiana, Massachusetts, Missouri, Mississippi, New Hampshire and Virginia have bills under consideration that would extend the in-state benefit, said Tanya Broder, a senior attorney with the National Immigration Law Center. Supporters next plan to step up lobbying on a related issue: making these students eligible for state financial aid, including scholarships or grants. Already, California, New Mexico and Texas have laws spelling out this right, and it is under consideration in states such as Washington. Sen. Patty Murray, D-

They’ve got it!

Wash., and Rep. Jared Polis, D-Colo., filed a bill in Congress that would provide money to states that of fer in-state tuition or financial aid to these students. “It’s an economic issue, and it’s an issue of fairness,” Murray said. In this time of financial austerity, the bill faces a difficult road. The students are known as “Dreamers” — from the shorthand for legislation stymied in Congress that provides a way for them to permanently remain in the U.S. The measure’s full title See TUITION, Page A2

NM expects fewer sign-ups for health exchange enrollment

SANTA FE (AP) — New Mexico’s state-run health insurance exchange has sharply reduced its enrollment expectations for this year by about half. Mike Nunez, interim chief executive officer of the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange, says problems with the federal healthcare.gov website slowed the state’s efforts to promote enrollment. The state had expected up to 83,000 people to register this year, according to a 2011 study cited in an application for a grant under the Affordable Care Act. The Santa Fe New Mexican reports Nunez now estimates only between 40,000 and 50,000 will enroll. The exchange announced Thursday it was awarded a

$69.4 million grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. The state had applied for $81 million. The lesser amount was due to federal spending cuts and lower than expected costs for integrating infor mation technology systems for the state health exchange, Nunez said.

The first open-enrollment period for individual policies ends March 31. Smallbusiness enrollment will be open for the remainder of the year. The state health exchange had little turnout in November with only 934 consumers registering. But about 7,688 enrolled by Dec. 28. New Mexicans ages 35 to 64 represented about 74 percent of enrollment.

Deadline nears for Keystone XL foes undaunted by report Gila River decision SANTA FE (AP) — Should the state’s last free-flowing river be allowed to keep running free, or should it be managed as a new supply of water for parts of southwestern New Mexico? New Mexico has rights to some of the Gila River and one of its tributaries under a 2004 settlement with Arizona. The deadline for deciding what to do with the water is at the end of the year. If New Mexico doesn’t use the water, it will keep flowing into Arizona and the state will forgo millions of dollars in federal funds available for construction of a diversion project.

Environmentalists and sportsmen contend any dams or diversions would har m the area’s wildlife and limit opportunities for recreation. But far mers throughout the region say the Gila would offer a backup source of water as dry conditions persist.

Estevan Lopez, director of the New Mexico Interstate Stream Commission, acknowledges that reaching any kind of consensus among the stakeholders has proven to be an elusive task. However, he thinks conserving the river and diverting it aren’t mutually exclusive.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — With yet another obstacle removed for the Keystone XL pipeline, opponents were pressing forward with a lawsuit to challenge the project, public protests and an effort to inject the issue into the November elections. Supporters and opponents both were quick to claim victories with the U.S. State Department report released Friday, which raised no major objections to the pipeline. The oil industry, some union groups and congressional Republicans called on the Obama administration to move forward with the project, while a coalition of landowners and environmentalists say

there is still cause for denying a federal permit. The project would ship 830,000 barrels of oil a day from Canada to Texas Gulf Coast refineries. Meanwhile, farmers and ranchers in Nebraska who oppose the pipeline are planning to run for seats on a state board that regulates power stations that are needed along the project route. And national activists say they have recruited more than 75,000 volunteers willing to participate in civil disobedience, should President Barack Obama approve the Keystone project. The project now goes to a 30-day comment period and a review by U.S. Sec-

retary of State John Kerry and other agencies. Obama has 90 days to make the decision on the pipeline, but the White House on Friday disputed the notion that the report is headed to a fast approval. Oil began flowing last week through an Oklahoma-to-Texas section already approved by Obama. “There’s no question, if the president approves this per mit, that there will be civil disobedience,” said Jane Kleeb, executive director of the group Bold Nebraska, which has helped organize opposition in the state. “We’ve said from the beginning that we will support the landowners and what

Jurecek’s long journey from Japan to Roswell TESS TOWNSEND RECORD STAFF WRITER

The parents of Roswell resident Mike Jurecek had to go through a special process to bring home their baby boy in 1952. The couple had to get a bill passed by United States Congress to make Jurecek (pronounced jereck) their own. Jurecek was adopted by his parents while his father, a master sergeant in the Air Force, was sta-

tioned in Japan. Baby Jurecek was found by police at a train station in Ueno, Japan, on June 23, 1950. Police estimated the abandoned young boy was about 2 months old when he was discovered. Not knowing the exact date the boy was bor n, what Jurecek refers to as the Japanese equivalent of the Children, Youth and Families Department assigned him a birth date: April 23, 1950. It also assigned him a

name: Minoru Nakajima. Jurecek spent about a year in an orphanage before his adoptive parents, who believed themselves to be infertile, found him. The family contacted former U.S. Rep. Antonio M. Fernandez of New Mexico and asked him to sponsor a bill allowing them to adopt their son. At the time, intercountry adoptions required approval by Congress. Jurecek knows the bill

number: HR 5297. He knows when it was passed: During the second session of the 82nd Congress. And he knows that he’s glad things worked out. “I had some of the best parents a person could ask for. They really cared

for me, loved me a lot,” he said of his now deceased adoptive parents. The rest is history — kind of. Growing up a military brat, Jurecek has lived throughout New Mexico

they want to do and what they think is best for their pr operty. I think you’ll see some landowners driving really slow on their county r oads to block the (pipeline) trucks.”

Project backers said the report — the latest in a five-year review by state and federal agencies — bolsters their case for the pipeline and eliminates the need for further delays.

The Keystone XL is “not about energy versus the environment. It’s about where Americans want to get their oil,” said Russ Girling, CEO of pipeline developer TransCanada.

and Texas, and spent some time around the age of 10 living in Sidi Slimane, Morocco, with his family. It later turned out his parents weren’t infertile, and in 1957, they gave birth to Jurecek’s younger brother. While he’s moved frequently, Jurecek has a strong connection to the community of Roswell. He’s also among many “firsts” for the community. He was one of the first students at Goddard High School when it opened. He was one of the first to play on the school’s football team. He says he and his teammates “got our rear ends beat.” Jurecek was also the first DWI compliance officer with the Chaves County DWI Program. The job is only one of a variety of careers to which Jurecek has given his time since he returned to Roswell after spending a few years in Houston, Texas, with his wife in his early 20s. He spent 22 years as an of ficer with the Roswell Police Department, eventually making his way up to the position of deputy chief. He retired from the force in 1997. After that, he did a stint in sales before taking on his position with the DWI program, which he did for eight years. He now works for the Roswell Independent School District as the liaison for homeless families. In his current position, Jurecek ensures that district students whose families don’t have permanent homes have access to proper school supplies, clothing and other resources, and that they are able to stay at the same school all year long.

As diverse a set of careers as Jurecek has had, he says there’s a unifying theme. “I just enjoy working with people,” he says. “For me, it’s rewarding when you have people that will thank you for doing your job.” He notes that former defendants in the DWI program will approach him to tell him how he helped them turn their lives around. “They’ll come up to me and say, ‘Yeah, you were my probation officer. I want to thank you for helping me get back on the right track,’” said Jurecek. The children he now works with will approach him in the grocery store to thank him as well. “That’s a great reward,” he says. Jurecek has been married for 43 years to his junior high school sweetheart, Joy. The two met in seventh grade at Mesa Middle School. They have two daughters, who also live in Roswell and work as teachers for the district. The women moved back to Roswell after their father had a heart attack in 2002. Jurecek is happy to stay where he is and says he feels no pressing urge to visit Japan. “A lot of people, they want to go back and see where they were bor n and try to find out more about their ancestry,” he says. “It’s not one of my top priorities.” “I’m so fortunate because the opportunities that I’ve had by being brought to the United States and by having the family that I did to raise me and show me these opportunities. ... If I was brought up in an orphanage in Japan, I feel sure I just wouldn’t have opportunities.”

is the Development, Relief, and Education for Alien Minors Act (DREAM Act). Lacking legal immigration status, the students typically aren’t eligible for federal financial aid and many other aid programs. But in many cases they are able to remain in the United States under President Barack Obama’s 2012 “deferr ed action” pr ogram. That allows immigrants brought into the United States without legal permission as children by their parents to obtain temporary resident status for two years. The status is renewable. Tello and Yves Gomes, 21, who was brought to the U.S. from India as a toddler, signed up.

Gomes attends the University of Maryland and pays in-state tuition, which he had lobbied for. But he says in some cases that isn’t enough. He called for state and other financial aid, especially for those who don’t qualify for Maryland’s in-state tuition benefit.

Tuition and fees for Maryland residents come to about $9,000 this academic year, compared with mor e than $28,000 for those from other states. That doesn’t include thousands more in room and board.

have to survive,” Gomes said. The issue of what educational benefits should be available to immigrants living illegally in the country has been contentious. Critics say helping the students encourages unlawful behavior and means they potentially take someone else’s seat at taxpayers’ expense. Kansas passed a law in 2004 that granted the instate tuition benefit to students living in the country illegally. Alabama, Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, South Carolina and Indiana bar the in-state benefit altogether, according to the National Confer ence of State Legislators. In Wisconsin, in-state tuition

was authorized in 2009, but later repealed.

Politicians have taken heat on both sides.

In the 2012 Republican pr esidential primary, T exas Gov. Rick Perry ended up apologizing after saying critics of in-state tuition for students in the country illegally “did not have a heart.” In last year’s gubernatorial race in Virginia, GOP Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli was dogged during his unsuccessful campaign by a vote opposing the instate tuition benefit earlier in his career.

Christie agreed to sign the New Jersey bill only after issuing a conditional veto that took out the financial aid component.

Inmates to sell artwork at old prison Roswell Daily Record

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The artwork of New Mexico inmates will go on sale at the site of one of the deadliest prison riots in the nation’s history. Beginning in May, tourists who visit the Old Main prison can buy the art that was created as part of a rehabilitation program, the New Mexico Corrections Department said. It’s just one of many offerings planned as the department transforms the now-closed prison near Santa Fe into a museum. Last October, the CorDepartment rections

Former New Mexican nominated for FERC position

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A former University of New Mexico law professor and U.S. attorney for the district of New Mexico is the White House pick to lead the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Norman Bay was nominated this week. The nomination will go before the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee. Bay is currently director of FERC’s enforcement office. Sen. Martin Heinrich, a New Mexico Democrat, describes Bay as an admired public servant with outstanding credentials. Bay taught law at UNM from 2002 to 2009. He served as U.S. attor ney from 2000 to 2001 and worked as an assistant U.S. attorney for more than a decade before that.

Crews from the Penitentiary of New Mexico will help with repairs, and the museum could open within three to five years, official said. The final cost is not unclear. Inmates from the penitentiary, located next to Old Main, would be involved in operating the

Drive and Landers Road for a traffic violation. Deputies found Borrego’s 5-year-old son and 2-yearold daughter improperly restrained in the car. They also detected a strong odor of alcohol from the car. They say Borrego consented to give a breath test at their headquarters and failed. She has been booked into the Dona Ana County Detention Center. Deputies charged her with DWI, two counts of child abuse and neglect, failure to stop at a red light, making an improper turn and having an open container.

The Daily Times reports agents arrested one suspect Friday at a Motel 6 and the other two in the car. Police seized nearly one pound of methamphetamine, nearly a pound of

heroin, $2,830 and a 2004 Audi. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has placed a hold on all three men. Agents say AlvarezSalazar had an expired visa and the other two men have been deported from the U.S. twice.

Differing perspectives fuel debate in Knox case SEATTLE (AP) — T o some Americans, especially those in her hometown of Seattle, Amanda Knox seems a victim, unfairly hounded by a capricious legal system in Italy that convicted her this week in the death of a 21year -old British woman. But in Europe, some see her as a privileged American who is getting away with murder, embroiled in a case that continues to make global headlines and reinforces a negative image of U.S. citizens behaving badly — even criminally — abroad without any punishment. As she remains free in the U.S., the perceptions will likely fuel not only the debate about who killed Meredith Kercher in 2007 and what role, if any, Knox played in her death, but complicate how the U.S. and Italian govresolve ernments

whether she should be sent to Italy to face prison. “It’s been a polarizing case, and that polarization will remain,” said Anne Bremner, a Seattle attorney and Knox supporter.

The divergent views on who killed Kercher are rooted not just in the typical dynamics of a legal case in which the two sides hold opposing narratives, but also in the differences between the justice systems in the U.S. and Italy, and examples of Americans avoiding Italian justice.

After being first convicted and then acquitted, Knox and her onetime boyfriend, Raffaele Sollecito, were convicted again Thursday, following their third trial. Knox was sentenced to 28 1/2 years, Sollecito to 25 years. The court’s reasoning isn’t expected to be released for three months.

State of the Union 2014

A4 Sunday, February 2, 2014

Suppose a president of the United States delivered a State of the Union address and nobody cared? Isn’t that what happened Tuesday night when the increasingly irrelevant — and, yes, boring Barack Obama — droned on about predictable things in a predictable way? We have been forced to listen to him so many times (often several times in a single day) that it could qualify as cruel and unusual punishment in violation of the Constitution. One of the problems with political speech is that it exists in its own world and creates its own standards. Politicians measure their policies according to their own “facts,” ignoring outcomes that don’t fit their beliefs. A new ABC News-Washington Post Poll reveals the problem for the president. After taking office with sky-high approval and credibility numbers, the president now finds that 63 percent of American voters surveyed lack any confidence he will make right decisions for the country’s future. Furthermore, according to the

When they are gone, the administration crumbles in the minds of its citizenry and shrinks in stature around the world. In a world full of threats and challenges, this can only encourage America’s enemies, who might think they have nothing to fear from a toothless tiger. Given the sources of information available to the average citizen, deconstructing the president’s grand claims is not difficult. “Today, after four years of economic growth, corporate profits

and stock prices have rarely been higher, and those at the top have never done better. But average wages have barely budged,” the president said. “Inequality has deepened. Upward mobility has stalled. The cold, hard fact is that even in the midst of recovery, too many Americans are working more than ever just to get by — let alone get ahead. And too many still aren’t working at all.” Yet the nonpartisan Tax Foundation points to a Congressional Budget Office finding on income inequality: “Inequality today is slightly higher than the average of the past 30 years, but less than it was during the last two years of the Clinton administration.” The president has mentioned the need for fixing American roads and bridges — infrastructure — in all of his State of the Union addresses. He claims the economy is improving and there has been strong job growth. Yet, according to a report from Sentier Research on household income trends, since President Obama

Roswell Daily Record

came into office median household income has dropped by $3,827. It went from $56,124 in January 2009 to $52,297 in December 2013. The poverty level, according to the U.S. Census, has increased during the same period, from 13.2 percent to 15 percent. A record 46.5 million Americans are now considered poor. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that the average number of weeks the unemployed have been without jobs has nearly doubled during Obama’s presidency, from 19.8 weeks in January 2009 to 37.1 weeks in December 2013. It’s easy to give a point-bypoint rebuttal to an Obama speech, but why bother? America is getting over Barack Obama. He is like a holiday houseguest who stays too long. Increasing numbers of Americans are coming to realize their faith in him to “change the way Washington works” was misplaced, as it always is when anyone puts more hope in a politician than in one’s

self. All of the president’s laments and criticisms are about conditions that exist on his watch. It is his economy, his high unemployment rate, his dysfunctional health care plan and his ineffective foreign policy. This presents an opportunity and a danger for Republicans. The opportunity is to fill the vacuum with proposals that will turn the country in a positive, more prosperous direction and reduce the size, cost and reach of the federal government. The danger is that Republicans will blow it, nominating candidates who cannot win with policies that are more negative than positive. Nothing of legislative significance is likely to happen before the fall election. If Republicans reclaim the Senate, the president will be more than a lame duck. Politically he will be roadkill.

Should New Mexico legalize marijuana?

Some progressive state senators think so and we have the chance to weigh in.

SJR 10, introduced into this legislative session by Senator Ortiz y Pino, is a constitutional amendment that would allow for the legalization, taxation, and regulation of marijuana in New Mexico.

If passed by both the House and Senate, SJR 10 would appear on the ballot in next November’s election where voters would then decide whether or not they want legal, taxed, and regulated marijuana in New Mexico. New Mexico would see between $19 million and $20.82 million in annual tax revenues from the legal sale of marijuana and the state would save over $33 million on police, courts, and corrections costs from no longer enforcing marijuana prohibition.

A majority of New Mexicans favor the full legalization of marijuana. Last week President Obama said even he believes that marijuana is no more dangerous than alcohol and US Attorney General Eric Holder the nation’s top cop - said he won’t stop banks from providing banking access to legal marijuana businesses in states. That's why we created a petition to The New Mexico State Senate.

ProgressNow New Mexico is a non-profit, non-partisan, grassroots communications and advocacy organization working to unite, empower, and enhance the progressive voice in the Land of Enchantment. We function as a progressive communications hub and our mission centers on the promotion of progressive issues and policies, correcting conservative misinformation, and holding elected officials and corporations accountable.

Climate Change Debate?

I have been following Marita Noon’s “Energy Makes America Great” on her blog site for a couple of years and most recently in our local paper. I will give her kudos for knowing and understanding the gas and oil industry and for communicating the benefits of those energy sources to the general public. However, her recent commentary on climate change addresses a topic she knows very little about by her own admission. She wrote this last article based on other people’s assertions and opinions, both pro and con, and as a result, was very confusing. The whole notion of climate change is based on several theories and the great thing about theories is that they can evolve as more evidences become available and previous predictions do not materialize. People often confuse weather pattern changes with long-term climate changes. The Earth was first for med about 4.54 billions years ago and has evolved through climate and geological changes ever since. For example, Roswell was once an inlet sea off the Gulf of Mexico. How do you think all that salt got under Carlsbad that they built the WIPP facility in. All that water eventually evaporated and ended up somewhere else, such as ice and snow in the polar regions and glaciers on the mountain tops. Oil comes from the respiration of vegetation so at one time; Midland, Texas, was probably a rain forest and the shorelines of the continents extended out to what is now sea water. I don’t argue about climate change because it is already a given. However, is mankind causing con-

Those who have read my letters over the past year know that I am an advocate for thorium as the fuel for future energy requirements. I do support hydrocarbons as long as we reduce the amount we burn (causes CO2). I also support renewable as a supplement to more reliable base load power sources (utility provided) and for individual entities like homes and small businesses.

For example, 6,600 tons of thorium could provide the energy equivalent of the annual global consumption of 5 billion tons of coal, 31 billion barrels of oil, 3 trillion cubic meters of natural gas, and 65,000 tons of uranium. Add to that, thorium is 200X more energy dense than uranium, which is 1,000X more energy dense than hydrocarbons. The only positive thing about renewable is that the sun will shine for another 5 billion years, but unless they can improve the capture efficiency and long term storage, it won’t get the job done for 10 billion people (2050 estimate).

You choose the influencers in your life OPINION

Roswell Daily Record

Who in this world influences your life? We all are influenced by others. We don’t live our lives in a vacuum. We are not each born on a remote island with no one around. We don’t live our lives with an abundance of food, clothing, and shelter automatically provided without us ever having to lift a finger. Studies have shown that the average American receives between 2200 and 3500 new pieces of information in a typical day. Wow! Just thinking about this makes me tired. There are countless categories this information falls into. The information may be a red stoplight, a commercial, a phone call, a smile from a stranger, a gust of wind as you cross a street, a broken heel on your shoe, a hug from your grandchild, or an article in the newspaper. You get the idea. Included in the above number is that each day we average 240 requests of our time. These may be a family member asking a question, a fellow employee asking for instructions, a phone call from a telemarketer, or an e-mail asking for input on an issue. So how do we get up each day, get out of bed, keep our heads up and maneuver our way through a day of influences? Some days are easier than others. Given a day without any influences, what path would we take? We would likely get bored missing the excitement that life provides.

Taken from the ENMU website: Shall the Eastern New Mexico University Roswell Branch Community College District establish the mill levy tax rate at three dollars ($3.00) for each one thousand dollars ($1000) of net taxable value of all taxable property within the district, the proceeds to be used for current operations, maintenance and capital improvements of the Eastern New Mexico University Roswell Branch Community College, effective January 1, 2015? I read that the figure raised for the University would be $2.1 million per year, every year, and trust me this is just the start because I guarantee that the begging bowl will be out at regular intervals for ‘just’ another 1/8 of a mill, and ‘just’ another ¼ of a mill. Be honest, if schools had all the money in the world, it still wouldn’t be enough. ‘Current operations, maintenance and capital improvements ‘ Nothing specific but broad enough to mean “Give us money and we can find some way to spend it” Since 1996 there have been 11 multi-million dollar bonds issued to pay for capital improvements at ENMU, where did that money go? And it’s not over because there is a proposed 2014 $1.1 million general obligation bond to pay for half the repairs to the ENMU Golden library. From that it’s a reasonable assumption that there will be another bond issue to pay for the other half at a later date. And despite the claim that they have reduced staff by 33% to cut costs they still maintain a staff of 4 dedicated to arranging Federal and private student loans. This adds to the Federal, State and local grants, the fees students pay for classes, meals and accommodation, and the private donations. And search as I may, I cannot find any audited accounts to show where the money is being spent. If the University of Phoenix can operate without any taxpayer money, why can’t ENMU Roswell? Just for once we have a chance to see our taxes reduced by $2.1 million, leaving a little more in our pockets and what would we do with that money? We would put it into the Roswell economy where small businesses will benefit; they can grow and employ more people. I know some of the read-

JUST A THOUGHT

How do we decide what we let influence us? More importantly, how do we decide who influences us? One of my favorite sayings is “Life is 10% what happens and 90% how we respond.” Let me explain this truth in reverse order. The 90% response arises countless times throughout the day. How do you respond when someone cuts you off as you drive to the grocery store, when someone yells at you, when someone opens the door for you, when someone calls you in tears? You choose your response. You choose how you let each of these events influence your world. The 90% response to the 10% is critical. It is what life is all about. It is how you let the influences in your world impact you. The 90% determines if you face each day with vigor and a proactive approach or if you drag from sunup to sun-down letting others control your quality of life. With this foundation laid, I want to go back to the opening question, “Who in this world influences your life?” Let me focus the rest of this

ers will be saying “I rent so this doesn’t af fect me”. Wrong, it affects your landlord, who will undoubtedly raise your rent substantially to cover the increase. So please vote no on this issue and put $2.1 million each and every year into local business, not the bottomless pockets of ENMU. Mr. Neil Binderman

Thanks to Emergency City Sewer Workers!

FYI, if you ever have an after hour problem with sewer, water, or streets, there is an emergency phone number listed under City of Roswell-Central Control and is 347-5421. Here is what happened to us. On Friday, January 24, we had frantic phone calls from all of our senior citizen residents living in our fourplex on N. Grand. All 8 bedrooms were flooding through commodes. We contacted the City Sewer Department at 622-1449 and a crew was immediately dispatched. They determined a problem in the City’s main sewer line. They worked diligently all day Friday until dark. They were kind enough to stop by the fourplex and tell our residents they thought the line was clear but keep an eye out. But by Saturday mor ning 8:30am, our folks were calling with the same problem! Not realizing the City has the before mentioned number, we reluctantly called our Mayor Del Jurney at his home. He was very gracious, said not to worry and he would take of it. Within 15 minutes the sewer crew was on the scene and the problem was fixed within an hour. We then received a phone call from our City Manager, Larry Fry, who told me to call him directly if we had any problems over the weekend. The story isn’t over yet! My daughter, Trina Browns owns an 8 plex on E. 23rd Street and one of her renters called 9:00 Sunday night with a clogged sewer line. Being so late, she said she would send out a repairman first

column on the segment of the 10% that you can control. If you pulled out a pad and paper and listed the 25 individuals who influence your life the most, who would be on the list? And if you listed them in order from the greatest influence on down, what order would you put them in? Your list might include a spouse, children, parents, close relatives, friends, a boss, co-workers, a pastor, congregation members, people you visit with in organizations you are active with. The order in which they influence you is also important. Are you influenced more by a close friend than you are your spouse? Does your boss influence you more than your pastor? Understand that you control you. Also understand that others influence you to think the thoughts you think and to take the actions that you take. Remember, we don’t live in a vacuum. A teenager is more apt to commit a crime if he hangs with others who commit crimes. A mother is more apt to go to a weekly Bible study if her friends are active in Bible studies. Let me go a step further with this line of thought. With the exception of the family you are born into, you choose who influences you. None of us chose our parents. This was done by God. But outside this scope, each of us chooses who is impacting our lives. You chose your spouse. You choose where your work. You choose where you

They determined the main sewer line that services such a large business as Holiday Inn, Leisure Inn and also Denny’s, What a Burger, Roswell Daily Record and many others. We just have to say that these City Sewer Crews deserve a lot of praise! They have been diligently working to correct this problem since Monday and we are writing this letter Friday, January 31,. They have been working around the clock on this, even 0 degrees wind chill several nights! It has taken this long because of the huge amounts of water coming in to the line from the business plus numerous apartments in the area and also because the line kept caving in when they were trying to dig. ALL OF US TAKE FOR GRANTED, WITHOUT A PASSING THOUGHT, ALL THE FOLKS WHO KEEP ROSWELL BEAUTIFUL AND FUNCTIONING! WE WANT TO EXPRESS OUR SINCERE THANKS TO: 1. All the people who work so hard to keep the City Sewer lines flowing including supervisors Daniel Mendiola and Art Torres. 2. Our Mayor Del Jurney who took time on his weekend to get the ball rolling and 3. Larry Fry our City Manager who bothered to do a follow up call to us on his weekend. We live in the County and even though we own property in the City, we are not allowed to vote in City Elections. There is such an election coming up in March. If we could OUR VOTE WOULD BE FOR DEL JURNEY FOR MAYOR! HE IS AN ELECTED OFFICIAL WHO IS NOT A “POLITICIAN” BUT INSTEAD IS AN ELECTED SERVANT OF ROSWELL RESIDENTS!

If you think through a typical week in your life and ask yourself why you do what you do, in virtually every instance you will realize that what you have chosen to get involved in started with an individual or individuals who influenced you to get involved. You were placed in the path of another and he or she has influenced your life in a direction that you have chosen to move. So we get back to the base question, who is influencing your life? Are the influencers in your life adding to you or taking from you? Are you a better person because of those who influence you? As a result of each relationship, are you a better mother, a better son, a better friend, a better coach, a better banker, a better teacher, a better husband, a better citizen, a better member of our community? Are there influencers in your life who trip you up? Are there individuals who tempt you, who lead you down roads that you should never travel, who cause negative thoughts in your life, who dilute you, who cause you to lose focus on your purpose in life? I will represent to you, unless you are very highly disciplined, given enough time you will become like those who influence you. So take time right now to determine the top 10 or the top 25 indi-

Dear Editor:

Thank you Melissa Urban and others on the “Stand Together, Heal as One” committee who worked so hard to get the Arapahoe High School teens from Centennial, Colo., to Roswell! My daughters all went to Berrendo and I personally know some of those affected, so like many of you, my thoughts and prayers have been with all concerned. When I heard about and viewed the video that Arapahoe senior David Courtney put on YouTube offering encouragement and help to the students at Berrendo, I was impressed. He and his schoolmates after all had undergone a similar tragedy at their school just a month and a half earlier. When I heard that this committee had arranged for David and 14 other students to travel to Roswell to do what they could to help our Roswell youth and families, I knew that I had to go to Pearson Auditorium last Saturday to hear them and let them know how much we appreciated them for their desire to help. The event was a mix of formality (a fire department color guard, guest National Anthem singer Summer Lara from Artesia, a master of ceremonies, Texas Tech student Garrett Looka singing a song he wrote after hearing the news) and informality. The informality was somehow attained within that formal environ-

viduals who impact your world and then ask yourself are these individuals who you would like to become like? Are these influencers adding to your world or are they causing you to make stupid decisions? My challenge to you today is to first recognize that you control you. The choices you make are not anyone else’s fault, they are yours to be proud of or yours to seek forgiveness for. Either way the actions you select cause consequences. Once you recognize the control and responsibility you have over your own life, determine if your influencers are good choices. If there is someone who you are allowing to influence your world in a negative manner, evaluate the relationship. Take action if necessary. It may be necessary to end the relationship or to redefine it. If a relationship is darkening your light, you can’t be the person you need to be. Recognize that you control who influences you. You have chosen the influencers in your life. You are accountable for you and the impact the influencers have on your life. Just a thought...

ment in Pearson, primarily due to the Arapahoe students. They left their seats and perched along the edge of the stage, just feet from the Berrendo students who came. Then, the amazing healing words spilled from them. Each shared very personally how they were af fected by Arapahoe’s shooting, their relationships with the girl who was killed and the boy who shot her, the ways their parents helped them, their community’s response, and their own healing process thus far. Seeing and hearing them was probably the best thing that could have happened to Berrendo students and parents. To be honest, I planned to stay for awhile and make an early exit, but I simply could not leave while they were talking and answering questions from parents and students. Their words lifted me. Their example awed me. I wanted to get to know each one of them personally. What a wonderful reminder that we have great teenagers in spite of the troubled environment of our modern day world. Luckily, as it worked out, I was able to meet and talk to each one of them after they accepted our invitation to come to Classics Frozen Custard after the event! They stood in the cold, eating ice cream, and continued to impress me. Only after that time did I realize that there had been controversy surrounding their trip to Roswell. I had been very disappointed in the tur nout at Pearson

Auditorium, and had not seen any Berrendo teachers that I recognized, which I thought was strange. I am not a Facebook addict, and had not heard about the fact that our own school administration had for some ill-advised reason not only refused to allow the students to come as guests of the schools or speak at Berrendo, but had refused to support the grassroots effort to get them here or to even attend the event. I heard, hopefully incorrectly, that the teachers were even told NOT TO ATTEND! UNBELIEVABLE. And if this actually occurred, I cannot believe that a large percentage of teachers did not ignore this directive and attend anyway! I know and respect many of you, so I can only hope that the school district’s decision was made because the powers that be sincerely believed the visit would not be beneficial to the students and families for some reason, or might har m them in some inconceivable way. I hope it was not due to some attorney or insurer -advised liability fears. Whatever reasons the schools and teachers had for not attending, let me make it absolutely clear: YOU MADE THE WRONG DECISION!!! How do I know? Because I was there. I saw the kids, I heard their words, I felt their hearts, and I saw the Berrendo kids war m to them (most of them probably ended up with crushes See LETTERS, Page A6

LOCAL/OPINION

Give some thought before you use that portable ladder STEVE WOLFE ROSWELL SAFE COALITION The lead paragraph in the article says “A 54-year -old woman suffered a fatal ladder fall after retrieving Christmas decorations from her attic. Reports indicate that one of the ladder rungs broke while she was standing on it. A single crack caused this tragic event…..” And what really grabbed my attention was that the attached photograph could have been taken in my garage, of my exact ladder going up into my exact attic! Falls are the leading cause of death in construction and every year, falls from ladders make up nearly a third of those deaths, hundreds of them. Over the years, I have learned that always one of the questions which will be asked in an accident investigation is “Is this accident preventable?”

Cowpokes

Simply put, ladder accidents are considered to be 100 percent preventable and are therefore a critical topic in the safety programs of companies around the world. Lives can be saved by following safe work practices. By the way, all of these things apply equally to the do-it-yourselfer. When you want to reach a higher work area (the British call It “work at height”), think about

the best equipment to use - the proper type of ladder or maybe not a ladder at all. Like most jobs, choosing the right tool for the job can make all the difference when it comes to safety. First, make sure that the ladder’s weight capacity has been considered. Exceeding the limit could cause the ladder to break and the user to fall or become injured. The necessary height for the job is another consideration. Many injuries occur when the ladder selected is not tall enough. Rather than selecting a different ladder, workers sometime place the too-short one on a platform of some kind or they stand on the very top rung in order to obtain the necessary height. Both of these short-cuts are extremely dangerous. Furthermore, it may be that bringing in other equipment, such a scissor lift or a ladder with a working platform and

hand rails is the right thing to do. That decision may be determined by the heavy items you will be holding, how long you can expect to be working from this height, and if you have to stand on the ladder sideways to do the work. Once the ladder is chosen, the user should always inspect it, looking for wor n or damaged parts and reading the labels and markings. If any damage is found, do not use the ladder until it is repaired or replaced. Avoid electrical hazards! Be sure to look for overhead power lines before handling a ladder and avoid using a metal ladder near power lines or exposed energized electrical equipment. Likewise, watch that you don’t place the ladder on soft and uneven ground or surfaces. Finally, always maintain a 3point (two hands and a foot, or two feet and a hand) contact on

Education should be left to local governments and parents. “Immigration: It’s odd that I’m seen as a friend to immigrants, given that I’ve deported more of them than the previous president did.

on one or more of them — could that have been the imagined harm?) and I personally felt their love. How I wish the entire student body could have heard them. I wish every person affected by this event could have heard them and spoken to them. Their ultimate message was one of forgiveness, hope, and love.

So, even though the controversy was embarrassing, many Berrendo students were helped and the healing was accelerated by this event. Parents were healed as well. High school students were the perfect age to serve as a link to the younger middle school kids, while also understanding what parents were dealing with. In other words, even without degrees and counseling licenses, they were by far the best therapists Roswell could have trucked in to help with a traumatic and life-affecting situation. If you haven’t figured out

a way to help yet, let me suggest you do what these kids did. Get involved. Talk to those affected. Volunteer to help with our youth in Roswell, through the schools, churches or families. Write letters to them, even if you do not know them well. Donate money to the victims, do something to encourage the family of Mason Campbell. Talk to your own kids, teach them to care for their fellow students.

If you write letters to the editor, do not belittle others for their beliefs. Help the one at your workplace who seems to have problems or difficulties. Take responsibility for yourself. T reat clerks and food servers with respect. Forgive the guy who cut you off in traffic. Have patience. In other words, there are lots of ways we can help Roswell be a better place to live. Decide today to do something positive for our youth and community. Tim Miller

(Reaching out to the side with one hand while using the opposite leg to maintain balance is not a good idea. Seriously.) There are lots of safety considerations about ladders. However, it may be that we spend enough time on them so that it has become second nature. If we realize that it has become too comfortable, we should stop and think about what we are doing. Failing to do so is when we will get hurt. Now, back to my own ladder which leads to the attic at home. It is cracked and broken and frankly unsafe. No more Christmas decorations will make that upward trip on this particular ladder! It’s time for a change.

If people struggle with addiction — as I’ve struggled to give up cigarettes — putting them in prison isn’t a smart way to help. Let’s legalize all drugs.

Walter Jones

AP Sports Writer NEW YORK (AP) — The hang time is over for Ray Guy. The longtime punter for the Oakland Raiders is all by himself once again. After waiting 23 years, Guy is the first punter elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame. “Good things are worth waiting for,” Guy said Saturday night after being elected along with six other players. “It’s just a matter of time when it will show up. And

I knew it would, sooner or later. It had to, whether it was me or somebody down the road. But sooner or later, it had to show up, because that is a part of a football game.” The class of 2014 also included defensive end Michael Strahan, receiver Andre Reed, defensive back Aeneas Williams and defensive end Claude Humphrey, who like Guy was a senior selection.

Manning wins fifth MVP ward

NEW YORK (AP) — Peyton Manning made his fifth MVP award a family affair. Manning’s record-setting season earned him The Associated Press NFL MVP award Saturday night in a landslide. No other player has won more than three. Denver’s record-setting quarterback, who threw for 55 touchdowns and 5,477 yards in leading the Broncos to the AFC’s best record, earned 49 votes from a nationwide panel of 50 media members who regularly cover the league. New England quarterback Tom Brady got the other vote. Manning won his other MVPs with Indianapolis in 2003, ‘04, ‘08 and ‘09. He also was the runner-up last season to Adrian Peterson. “I am humbled by this recognition and grateful to my family, (Broncos owner) Pat Bowlen, John Elway, John Fox and the entire Denver Broncos organization, and of course, my coaches and my teammates,” Manning said in a prepared video acceptance speech. He was not on hand as he gets ready for Sunday’s Super Bowl against Seattle. “Now, I sent a couple of guys over there tonight to pick up the trophy on my behalf: my father Archie and my son Marshall. Thank you very much and God bless you.” See AWARDS, Page B4

The Southern Mississippi product averaged 42.4 yards, falling under the 40-yard bar only during the strike-shortened 1982 season. Only three of his 1,049 punts were blocked, and he set an NFL record with 619 in a row without a block. He had 209 See HOF, Page B4

Roswell wins 10th 44-32 KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR

The Roswell girls basketball team may sport a .500 record, but don’t let that fool you — the Coyotes are one of the best teams in 4A this year. A meat grinder of a schedule has made them

that way. They were right back in the middle of that meat grinder on Saturday when Las Cruces, which is ranked ninth in 5A, visited the Coyote Den. Roswell, ranked eighth in 4A, snapped its fivegame slide with a 44-32 win over the Bulldawgs.

“I don’t think we have (a confidence level). I think we’re still kind of going, ‘Are we good? Are we not good?’” Coyote coach Joe Carpenter said. “That tough schedule makes us that way. It’s

Top 25 Capsules No. 3 Florida 69, Texas A&M 36 GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Michael Frazier II scored 21 points, Dorian FinneySmith added 11 and No. 3 Florida overwhelmed Texas A&M. The Gators (19-2, 8-0 Southeastern Conference) pushed their winning streak to 13 games and extended a school record for consecutive home wins to 27. The latest one was another defensive gem. It tied the fewest points Florida has allowed in SEC play since 1950, matching last year’s defensive effort against South Carolina. Florida held the Aggies (12-9, 3-5) to 26 percent shooting and 20 percent from 3point range. The Gators also outrebounded Texas A&M 57-27.

No. 4 Wichita St. 81, Evansville 67 WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Fred VanVleet and Ron Baker had 14 points apiece, and Wichita State withstood an early barrage by Evansville. Cleanthony Early scored 13 and Tekele Cotton added 12 points for the Shockers (23-0, 10-0 Missouri Valley), who haven’t lost since last year’s surprising run to the Final Four. Wichita State spotted Evansville a 15point lead before using a massive run to carry the advantage into halftime. The Shockers merely had to coast the final 10 minutes as the lead approached 20 points, wrapping up their latest convincing conference victory. D.J. Balentine scored 26 points for the Purple Aces (10-13, 3-7).

No. 25 Texas 81, No. 6 Kansas 69 AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Isaiah Taylor scored 23 points, Jonathan Holmes had 22 and Texas to its sixth consecutive victory. Texas, which lost its top four scorers from last year’s 16-18 squad, has been the surprise of the Big 12. The Longhorns have four consecutive wins over Top 25 opponents and now sit in second place after dominating a team that had been playing as well as anyone in the country in recent weeks. The Longhorns (17-4, 6-2) thumped the Jayhawks (16-5, 7-1) with suffocating defense that held the Big 12’s best shooting team to 39 percent from the floor. Kansas freshman Andrew Wiggins, who averaged 24 points over the previous three games, scored seven before fouling out late. Wayne Selden Jr., scored 21 for the Jayhawks.

Georgetown 64, No. 7 Michigan St. 60 NEW YORK (AP) — Markel Starks scored 16 points and Georgetown ended a five-game losing streak. Jabril Trawick came up with two big plays down the stretch as the Hoyas (12-9) won the late-season nonconference game that was part of the New York area’s celebration of Sunday’s Super Bowl. Michigan State (19-3) played without injured frontcourt players Adreian Payne and Branden Dawson, and the Spartans had a tough time shooting the ball. Gary Harris led the Spartans with 20 points, including going 4 of 10 from 3-point range. D’Vauntes Smith-Rivera added 12 points for the Hoyas.

Baylor 76, No. 8 Oklahoma St. 70 STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Brady Heslip scored a season-high 20 points to help Baylor end a five-game losing streak. Rico Gathers had 14 points, Gary Franklin scored all 11 of his points in the second half and Cory Jefferson had 11 points and 13 rebounds for Baylor (14-7, 26 Big 12), which greatly improved its fading NCAA tournament hopes. The Bears had scored fewer than 70 points in four straight games, but shot 52 percent from the field and outrebounded the Cowboys 32-26. Markel Brown scored 24 points and Le’Bryan Nash had 19 points for Oklahoma State (16-5, 4-4), which lost to rival Oklahoma 88-76 on Monday night. Marcus Smart added 15 points, seven assists and six rebounds.

No. 9 Villanova 90, Temple 74 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — James Bell scored 19 points to lead Villanova to the win. Villanova (19-2) improved to a perfect 40 record in Big 5 play and earned its 22nd Big 5 championship in program history. Temple (6-14), meanwhile, missed out on a share of the city title and an opportunity to upset a top-10 team for the sixth consecutive season. The Wildcats took a five-point lead at the half and stretched it to as much as 24, at 6440, with 10:17 to play. Will Cummings had 24 points for the Owls.

No. 11 Kentucky 84, Missouri 79 COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Aaron Harrison scored 21 points and James Young added 20 to power Kentucky to the victory. The Wildcats (16-5, 6-2 Southeastern Conference) kept their poise one game after calling a players-only meeting to discuss the team’s issues away from home. Jabari Brown finished with a career-high 33 points and Jordan Clarkson scored 28 to keep Missouri (16-5, 4-4) in the game. Clarkson’s layup with 51.9 seconds remaining narrowed the Tigers’ deficit to 80-77, but Aaron Harrison answered with a layup 30 seconds later to end the threat.

No. 24 Ohio St. 59, No. 14 Wisconsin 58 MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Aaron Craft scored all seven of his points in the final 4 minutes, LaQuinton Ross finished with 13 points, and Ohio State got a confidenceboosting road win. Amadeo Della Valle added 11 points for the Buckeyes (17-5, 4-5 Big Ten) in a bruising back-and-forth affair with the Badgers (17-5, 4-5). Sam Dekker missed a 3 at the buzzer for Wisconsin, which has lost three in a row at home. Freshman Nigel Hayes led the Badgers with 17 points.

Silver replaces Stern as NBA commissioner

NEW YORK (AP) — Adam Silver has become the NBA’s fifth commissioner. The NBA posted a picture on its Twitter account Saturday of Silver holding a basketball and shaking hands with outgoing commissioner David Stern. “It’s official: Adam Silver succeeds David Stern as NBA Commissioner” the caption read. Stern retired after exactly 30 years in charge, making him the NBA’s longest-serving and most successful commissioner. Silver joined the NBA as his assistant in 1992 and has been the deputy commissioner since 2006. “It is a source of great satisfaction to me that the NBA will now be led by Commissioner Adam Silver, for whom I have tremendous admiration, respect and expectations as he and his experienced and dedicated team take the NBA to successes that were unimaginable even a short while ago,” Stern wrote Friday in a thank you email to media members. Stern announced he would retire on Oct. 25, 2012, and owners unanimously chose Silver as his successor. The NBA will now begin using balls with Silver’s signature in games.

He immediately provided blindside protection for Warren Moon and quickly became the first Seahawks lineman to earn a Pro Bowl spot.

While there is controversy about that play, the gap-toothed Strahan was one of the top twoway defensive ends. Younger teammates said he taught them how to work to become NFL players, and he walked away from the NFL after winning the Super Bowl in February 2008. “It’s hard to find guys with everything, but this guy had everything . size, speed, power, toughness, endurance, motor, smarts, leadership, heart, love for the game, but what I admired most about Michael was his pride,” Giants general Jerry Reese said. “No matter what the circumstances were, when he walked out on that field on Sunday, he

Especially when they were pressing us and trapping us, she was ready, she was wanting (the ball) and she wasn’t a post who was hiding from it.

This time, running back LeSean McCoy of Philadelphia was second with 10 votes, followed by Kansas City running back Jamaal Charles with four. Carolina grabbed two major awards, with Ron Rivera winning AP NFL Coach of the Year and linebacker Luke Kuechly voted top defensive player. Rivera engineered the Panthers’ turnaround from a 7-9 record to 12-4, the NFC South title and a first-round playoff bye. Kuechly keyed a defense that allowed 241 points, less than every team except NFC champion Seattle. “I had no idea,” he said of adding the award to the top defensive rookie honors he got last sea-

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — Jerami Grant scored eight points in overtime to finish with a career-high 24 and Jim Boeheim’s No. 2 Syracuse stayed unbeaten, topping Mike Krzyzewski’s No. 17 Duke 91-89 on Saturday in a matchup of the two winningest coaches in Division I history. Coach K said before the game that he hoped the highly anticipated matchup lived up to its billing. After the Orange withstood a tying 3-pointer in regulation and won before a Carrier Dome record crowd of 35,446, Boeheim said it certainly did, and then some. “We’ve had a lot of games that have been here that are great. There’s never been one as good as this one,” Boeheim said. C.J. Fair scored a career -best 28 points as Syracuse (21-0, 8-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) set a school record for consecutive wins to start a season. The Orange remained one of three undefeated teams in the nation, along with No. 1 Arizona and No. 4 Wichita State. Syracuse students camped out in the cold and were part of a crowd that was charged up from the start for the first ACC meeting between these longtime powers.

was going to give it ALL to you. There aren’t many guys who can say that.” Reed came out of little Kutztown (Pa.) University and played his first 15 seasons with Buffalo, getting to four Super Bowls, but never winning one. His final season was with Washington. His 951 career receptions are third in league history, highlighted by nine consecutive seasons of 50plus catches. Long before people spoke about yards after the catch, Reed was doing it. He finished with 13,198 yards and 87 touchdowns. A walk-on at Southern University, Williams was a shutdown cornerback in his 14 NFL seasons, the first 10 with the Cardinals and the last four with the Rams. He had 55 career interceptions, getting at least one in every season except his last. He had

two assists. “She was aggressive with the ball, especially early in the game when we needed it,” Carpenter said. “We needed that kind of play from her. I think playing the tough schedule has made her get tougher, I really do.” The Coyotes trailed after the first (11-9) and second (21-19) quarters, but took command in the third and never looked back. They opened the second

Williams shared the NFL record for longest fumble return with a 104-yarder for a touchdown against Washington in 2000, his last year with the Cardinals. He started at cor nerback for the Rams in the 2001 Super Bowl and played safety in his final two seasons. The Hall of Fame doors finally opened for Humphrey on his 28th year of eligibility and his fifth as a finalist. The durable six-time Pro Bowl pick had 122 career sacks in 14 seasons with the Falcons and Eagles, who acquired him after a brief retirement in the 1978 season. His 14 1/2 sacks in 1980 helped the Eagles reach the Super Bowl.

Sanchez scored nine of the 12 during that stretch thanks to guards who started looking down low first. “We challenged the posts. I think our guards weren’t looking inside enough, so we challenged the posts,” Carpenter said. “We thought that we had a size advantage inside and,

Those guys are both studs.” Green Bay running back Eddie Lacy and Jets defensive tackle Sheldon Richardson were the top rookies for 2013. San Diego quarterback Philip Rivers took the Comeback Player of the Year award at the NFL Honors show. Rivera’s fine work in his third season in charge in Carolina brought him 21 1/2 votes. That outdistanced Kansas City’s Andy Reid, who got 13 1/2 votes. In his first year with the Chiefs, Reid took them from 2-14 to 11-5 and an AFC wild-card berth. “I do feel a lot of pride because it has been a long journey, but it also was a part of the process,”

at halftime, we talked about that. So we said, ‘Get the ball inside, get the ball inside.’” Alexis Florez and Alexis Angeles benefitted from the approach as well, combining for nine points and 18 rebounds.

at this time, record wise. We played pretty much as tough a schedule, so I am proud that my girls have been able to bounce back and get to that point. “I think we are going to play solid in district. I think anything can happen in our district and I don’t know that has been the case the last 10 years or so. I think it will be a dog fight every game.” Stephanie Kolker led Goddard with nine points, while Robinson chipped in with five. Williams finished with a game-high 25.

Rivera said. “Just like us getting to where we are winning 12 games was part of the process. We started, the team was 2-14 before I got there and we went to 6-10 and then 7-9, and this year we broke through at 12-4. It was part of the process of growing and developing.” Rivera is the second Panthers coach to win the award. Dom Capers was AP Coach of the Year in 1996, Carolina’s second season in the NFL. All-Pro Kuechly received 19 votes, ahead of Indianapolis AllPro linebacker Mathis, who earned 11 1/2. Kuechly was credited with 96 tackles, four interceptions, two sacks, eight passes defensed, and was a presence from sideline to sideline on the NFL’s No. 2 unit. A second-round pick (61st overall) from Alabama, Lacy was a key performer in the Packers’ offense,

particularly when star quarterback Aaron Rodgers was sidelined for seven games. He rushed for 1,178 yards on 284 carries (4.1 average), with 11 touchdowns. He also had 35 receptions. That was good enough for 35 votes. “I’m comfortable where I am, and my teammates believe in me, and they make me feel comfortable, so I’m able to play the way I’m capable of playing,” said Lacy, who beat out San Diego wide receiver Keenan Allen, who received 12 votes. Richardson, the 13th overall pick in April’s draft on a selection acquired when New York traded star cornerback Darrelle Revis to Tampa Bay, won a close race over Buffalo linebacker Kiko Alonso. Richardson received 23 votes; Alonso, a second-round choice (46th overall), got 19.

Bairstow leads Lobos past San Jose St. 72-47 ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — After missing the past two games with a shin injury, New Mexico post Alex Kirk showed little rust in scoring 13 points in 19 minutes Saturday against San Josi State. His return helped the Lobos to a 7247 win over the Spartans, their 10th straight loss. “It was great to have Alex back with the team,” said New Mexico coach Craig Neal. “He looked really, really, as I would say, spry for a 7-footer. But his leg is better. He has no issues.” Kirk’s leg had been bothering him for chunks of the season, but it finally got to the point where he needed to sit. “I feel like I could have played the last three games, 30 minutes, but you have to look at the future of it,” Kirk said. “Could I have been able to play 30 Wednesday? When would this finally catch up to me?” After using his time on the bench to root on the Lobos (17-4, 8-1 Mountain West) two to road victories, he was anxious to get back on the floor. “You just kind of sit there and cheer on your teammates,’ Kirk said. “I hoped that’s the rowdiest our bench has been all year on those two road games. .When it’s gone, it does feel good to come back. And when I came back, I just played my hardest like I normally do.” With Kirk as a catalyst scoring seven quick points, the Lobos never trailed and used an early 13-0 run to take a 17-3 lead. In the game’s first seven minutes, the Spartans (6-16, 0-10) went 1-for-9 from the field, with the only basket coming on

a wild, off-balance, banked 3-pointer by Isaac Thor nton as the shot clock expired. After San Josi State closed within 2216, New Mexico’s ensuing 11-2 run upped the lead to 33-18 and it remained in double digits the rest of the way. Cameron Bairstow scored 14 points with seven rebounds for New Mexico and Kendall Williams added 11 points and five assists. Rashad Muhammad scored 15 to lead San Josi State. The Lobos dominated all phases of the game with a 40-26 rebounding edge, including 11-2 on the offensive glass. New Mexico had 20 assists, with Hugh Greenwood dishing out seven, compared to a season-low three turnovers. “Anytime you can have 20 assists and three turnovers, that’s outstanding,” Neal said. As for Kirk, Neal said he didn’t even make a decision on whether to play him until the morning of the game. “I was going into the game that he wasn’t going to play because he hadn’t practiced,” he said. Friday “was his first practice. Then my decision was going to be made on how he felt (Saturday) morning. Did his leg ache? Did he have any pain? It was kind of a calculated thing that we’re doing with him.” Kirk said he felt fine after the game. His playing time going forward will be re-evaluated by the doctors and coaching staff, Neal said.

you forgot), they are the team of destiny. The Broncos donʼt have all the emotionallystirring storylines that the Ravens had a year ago, but they have all the markers of a team of destiny. Peyton Manning is continuously questioned and maligned despite the fact that he is the greatest quarterback to ever set foot on an NFL field. Yes, his playoff record is lackluster at best, but heʼs 3-1 in conference championship games and 1-1 in the Super Bowl (and that lone loss is to maybe the ultimate team of destiny, the Saints, who were championing the cause for New Orleans not long after one of the most devastating hurricanes to ever make landfall). The team heʼs captaining this year is probably the best heʼs ever had. This yearʼs Bronco offense is the best in the history of the NFL — and thatʼs not just an opinion, the numbers are there to prove it. I love a good defensive battle just as much as any hardcore NFL fan, but, when it comes right down to it, scoring more points than the other team is how you win the game. And the Broncos score points better than any other team in the history of professional football. With Peytonʼs plethora of pass catchers, itʼs nearly impossible to hold the Broncos to a number that will allow your offense to compete. The Seahawks have a great defense, yes, but the Broncos have a remarkable offense. I know the cliché is that defense wins championships, but I think that is passé in todayʼs NFL. Denver just has too many weapons to defend. The key to the Broncosʼ offense is creating mismatches and they do it to near perfection. Even if you assume that Seattleʼs stellar secondary can, for the most part, hold the wide receivers in check, Denver still has guys like Julius thomas, Jacob Tamme and Joel

Dreessen who will beat linebackers in coverage on nearly every snap. The Seahawks have one of the most aggressive defensive units in the NFL when it comes to blitzing, which is something that will be their downfall in this game. Manning is the smartest quarterback to ever play the game and he has one of the quickest releases of all-time. The Seahawks will dial up a few too many blitzes in an effort to get pressure, and Manning will burn them with screen passes, just like heʼs done to every defense that has tried to run blitzheavy schemes against him. The Broncosʼ offense vs. the Seahawksʼ defense is the matchup everyone is talking about, but Iʼm intrigued to see the flip side. Denverʼs defense hasnʼt exactly been great this year, but Seattleʼs offense has been downright atrocious on several occasions. Russell Wilson seems to be everyoneʼs golden boy, but, in reality, heʼs been really bad far more times than heʼs been really good in his short career. In 2013, heʼs thrown for less than 220 yards 12 times in 18 games, including both playoff games, and heʼs thrown as many or more interceptions than touchdowns in a third of his teamʼs games. I think he will be a very good starter in the NFL for a long time, but heʼs not good enough to win a Super Bowl just yet. And, trust me, it will be up to him to win it, because the Broncos will make darn sure that Marshawn Lynch wonʼt get into “Beast Mode” or enjoy any celebratory Skittles. Back to that team of destiny thing, though. With the Manning storyline (this could be his last game depending on the health of his surgically-repaired neck) and the John Fox storyline (he had heart surgery and still returned to the sideline to lead his team to the Super Bowl), I like the Broncos to win Super Bowl XLVIII. — Kevin J. Keller

year is played today and this Super Bowl matchup has the potential to be one for the ages. On the other hand, it means the football season is just about over and games wonʼt be played again until August. Donʼt worry if you shed a tear after, it is definitely sad. I choose, however, to focus on the pot of gold at the end of the NFL seasonʼs rainbow — Denver vs. Seattle for the Lombardi Trophy. Last season, behind a miracle against Denver and the retiring Ray Lewis, the Ravens hoisted the trophy and were widely regarded as the team of destiny. Naturally, I picked against them. This year, the Denver Broncos seems to be favored by destiny and, once again, I am picking against them. For just the second time in the past 20 years, the top two seeds will be squaring off and, for the fifth time since the AFL-NFL merger, the leagueʼs top scoring offense (Denver) will take on the leagueʼs best scoring defense (Seattle). If you were wondering if there is truth to the “defense wins championship” cliché, look no further than the previous four matchups of the top offense against the top defense. The defense has emerged victorious three times, the last of which was 1990 when the Giants edged the Bills — it pains me to type that — 20-19. It will happen for a fourth time today. Seattleʼs defense is stacked and will be the Broncosʼ most difficult matchup of the year. While the “Legion of Boom” gets many of the headlines — deservedly so — this game will be won, or lost, with Seattleʼs defensive line. Whoever is in charge of cleaning Peytonʼs jersey this postseason has had a fairly easy go of it, as Denver has allowed zero sacks in two games. Manning and Denverʼs offense is all about timing and rhythm. Getting pressure is always

important, but if you are going to beat the Broncos, it is essential. To get pressure, Seattleʼs D-line, including Red Bryant, Michael Bennett, Chris Clemons, Cliff Avril and Brandon Mebane, should attack the middle of Denverʼs offensive line. If you attack the edges, Peyton has enough mobility and pocket awareness to just step up. Pushing the center and guards into his face, however, will force him to move laterally, which is definitely not his strength. Aside from pressure, Seattle will have to neutralize my X-factor for Denver — Julius Thomas. The gifted tight end is a matchup nightmare for teams and Denver will move him around, trying to isolate him on a linebacker. Seattle will be able to take away the Denver wideouts, and as long as it doesnʼt allow J. Thomas to go off, it will keep the Denver offense in check. Offensively, Seattle has to stay patient. If Denver goes up early, the Seahawks canʼt panic and abandon Lynch. I anticipate early on, Denver will stack the box and force Russell Wilson to prove he can make plays in the passing game, something that hasnʼt consistently happened in the last month and a half. He will make those plays in this game, though, which will allow “Beast Mode” to do his thing, particularly late. Denverʼs defense has allowed 30 fourthquarter points in two playoff games. That shows to me that Denver has a tired defense and, if Seattle can run the ball and keep the game close through the first three quarters, Lynch and a stellar offensive line will win the game. As a fan of the Bills, I have no rooting interest in this game. I just want a close, exciting game. I just believe that Seattleʼs defense and running game will prove too much for Peyton and the Broncos. — Lawrence Foster

B7 XLVIII

Sunday, February 2, 2014

THE MATCHUPS WHEN THE SEAHAWKS HAVE THE BALL Beast Mode. And big plays. That's what got the Seahawks to the big game for the second time in eight years, although nobody is left from that team which lost to Pittsburgh. RB Marshawn Lynch (24) has been pretty much unstoppable in the playoffs after a late-season slump. He powered his way to 109 yards and a 5.0 average per rush against San Francisco's staunch defense in the NFC title game. His 40-yard TD run got Seattle back in the game, and he ran all over New Orleans the previous week. Denver has stepped up defensively on the ground, led by NT Terrance Knighton (94) — yep, "Pot Roast vs. Beast Mode" — and LBs Danny Trevathan (59) and Wesley Woodyard (52), and will be in excellent shape if it can slow Lynch. And don't think Lynch can't burst free for big gains as well as get the tough yards inside. Seattle's offensive line struggled protecting Russell Wilson (3), but was fine when pounding it out against the 49ers. The Broncos aren't as physical or as deep defensively, and without LB Von Miller, there could be vulnerability. Then again, they are 10-0 without him as Trevathan has become a standout, DE Jeremy Mincey (57) has sealed the edge, and LB Shaun Phillips (90) and Robert Ayers (91) have ramped up their play. Seattle prides itself on an unrelenting physical offensive line. It's anchored by center Max Unger (60) and tackle Russell Okung (76), but it's also deep because injuries forced backups into action all season. Where the Seahawks sometimes struggle is keeping pass rushers off Wilson; he was sacked four times by San Francisco. Phillips led the Broncos with 10 sacks during the season and has two more in the playoffs,

while Ayers also has become dangerous. The key is to keep Wilson contained in the pocket. Once he gets outside, he will create big plays either running or passing. Despite what some critics maintain, he does have the targets to produce with his arm. Doug Baldwin (89) has been superb in the postseason, and Golden Tate (81) is just as formidable at wide receiver. Third wideout Jermaine Kearse (15) caught the 35yard TD pass for the winning points last week. Denver's battered secondary handled Tom Brady quite well for the AFC championship, so it should ride a wave of confidence into the Meadowlands. Veteran DBs Champ Bailey (24), Tony Carter (32) and Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (45) will have a tougher time against these receivers than they did against New England. Don't underestimate the abilities of TEs Zach Miller (86) and Luke Willson (82) to get open and contribute, either. And if WR-KR Percy Harvin (11) is recovered from a concussion suffered against the Saints, it adds more speed and elusiveness for the Seahawks.

WHEN THE BRONCOS HAVE THE BALL The Seahawks ranked first in overall defense this year, yielding a league-low 231 points. All Denver did was score 606, shattering the previous NFL mark. Even juicier for this Super Bowl, Seattle was tops against the pass, which, of course, is a Peyton Manning (18) specialty. This is likely where the game will be decided. If Seattle's unequaled secondary led by All-Pros cornerback Richard Sherman (25) — yeah, the guy can talk, but he sure can play, too — and safety Earl Thomas (29), supported

SUPER BOWL Barry Wilner AP Pro Football Writer Prediction: Seahawks 23, Broncos 21

by terrific S Kam Chancellor (31) and emerging CB Byron Maxwell (41) can handle Manning's myriad receivers in man coverage, the Seahawks get a huge edge. Denver has not faced a defense with these cover skills, and those talents even extend to nickel backs Walter Thurmond (29) and Jeremy Lane (20). Of course, Seattle has not faced a QB like Manning, either. His 400-yard game against New England epitomized his sensational season. Manning will look for WRs Demaryius Thomas (88) and Eric Decker (87) in favorable matchups, especially on the outside, and for slot receiver Wes Welker (83) and TE Julius Thomas (80) over the middle. The Seahawks like to keep LBs Bobby Wagner (54) and Malcolm Smith (53) on the field as much as possible, so one of them could wind up against the dynamic Denver tight end. So might the now-healthy LB K.J. Wright (50). Manning will go there quickly to see if Seattle can handle Thomas. The Seahawks' defenders will play tight and tough on those targets. For those who haven't noticed, mesmerized by Manning and his record-setting performances, the Broncos have a running game. The question is whether that ground attack will get anywhere against Seattle, which held the 49ers' thirdranked rushing unit to 161 yards, 130 by Colin Kaepernick. Manning hasn't accumulated 130 yards rushing in his last eight seasons combined. So no worries there. The worry for Seattle is workhorse Knowshon Moreno (27), who can offer enough balance with his running to keep the opposition, well, off-balance. Moreno's work as a receiver out of the backfield gives Manning an astonishing five targets who caught 60 or more passes. All five also

scored 10 or more touchdowns. Denver's line has surrendered a mere 20 sacks, none in the postseason. RG Louis Vasquez and RT Orlando Franklin and center Manny Ramirez are particularly stout, and will need to be against Seattle's deep D-line rotation. Watch for Michael Bennett (72), Chris Clemons (91), Cliff Avril (56), Red Bryant (79), Brandon Mebane (92), Tony McDaniel (99) and Clinton McDonald (69) all to play roles. SPECIAL TEAMS Denver PK Matt Prater (5) broke the NFL record with a 64-yard field goal and might have the strongest leg in the league. He shouldn't be bothered much by the swirling winds should they blow through MetLife Stadium. Seattle's Steven Hauschka also is very reliable, although his range is not like Prater's. But he has made 17 of 18 field goals from 40 yards or longer. With Denver's offense clicking, Britton Colquitt has punted just once in the playoffs. Seattle P Jon Ryan (9) excels at putting the ball inside the 10. If Harvin is healthy, it adds a lot to Seattle's return teams: a gamebreaker any time he touches the ball. Tate is a solid punt returner with a penchant for gambling and Baldwin had a 69-yard kickoff runback against San Francisco. Denver's Trindon Holliday (11) also can break open big returns, but must show he can hang onto the ball. COACHING Seattle's Pete Carroll and Denver's John Fox both took over moribund franchises. Now look where they are. Both are strong motivators, although Carroll does it in more of a rah-rah style his players embrace.

No team is more aggressive, especially on defense, Carroll's specialty, than the Seahawks. He had some success in a previous head coaching stint with the Patriots, then went to USC and won two national titles. Since returning to the pros, Carroll has done a brilliant job turning the Seahawks into a championship contender. Fox, who missed a month of the schedule after heart surgery, is smart enough to keep the reins very loose on Manning. His background is in defense, where the Broncos struggled until recently. His players and assistants credit his energy and easygoing manner with helping steer them through a season of potholes to get to the Super Bowl. INTANGIBLES Manning's legacy overrides many other elements of this game. He's already proven to be among the greatest regular-season players the NFL has seen. But he is only 1-1 in Super Bowls; hey, even his younger brother, Eli, is 2-0 in them. Eli will be on hand in his stadium to root on Peyton, who was in Indianapolis two years ago when his bro beat the Patriots for his second championship. There's also the possibility, perhaps remote, that Peyton will emulate Broncos boss John Elway and retire should he win a second ring. Elway said he doesn't see that happening. The Seahawks lost in their only previous Super Bowl, which adds to the franchise's hunger. They also recognize that in Super Bowls featuring potent offenses against stingy defenses, the defensive team usually wins. Carroll coached in the Meadowlands in the 1990s as defensive coordinator, then head coach of the Jets. That didn't end well, and he could erase a few demons with a victory.

Creative Learning Center’s Arts Connect program brings excellence and equity in art to RISD K-6-graders Tess Townsend Record Staff Writer

The Arts Connect program launched in the Roswell Independent School District in fall 2004 with only three teachers and two support staff working through the Creative Learning Center. Staff worked to provide K-5 students with eight lessons that school year. The program, now in its 10th year, has since grown to include 10 teachers and three support staff providing lessons and projects to K-6 district students. Students in kindergarten through fifth grade receive one lesson each week for 32 of the 36 weeks in the school year. The program has a special mantra for students. “There are no mistakes and everyone is an artist,” recites CLC Arts Integration Facilitator Gretchen Phillips. Arts Connect is a statewide program implemented with the passage of the New Mexico Fine Arts Education Act, introduced by New Mexico State Rep. Max Coll. In the local district, elementary students were not required to receive any arts education before the bill’s passage. Phillips and CLC Director Cindy Simmons say that while law makes arts education available for all New Mexico elementary students, Roswell public schools are unique in the frequency and regularity with which students receive such instruction. The district receives roughly $1 million each year to provide instruction to at least 5,000 students.

The money comes from the state, but Phillips and Simmons say credit for the quality of Roswell’s program goes to the district. “Really, our superintendent and our school board are very much arts advocates,” said Phillips. Elementary students see performing arts and visual arts instructors in alternating weeks. One week, a class might create a puppet show. The next, they might construct masks. Each year’s curriculum is broken into eight themes of “artists’ habits of hand, heart and mind.” These habits include: observe, imagine, explore, choose, engage, express, create and reflect. Simmons says one goal is for Arts Connect crafts to bleed into the teaching of core subjects. “What we ultimately want teachers to do is teach through the arts,” she said. She gave as examples an English teacher having students use puppets to make skits about “main ideas,” or a science teacher having students use puppets to make a skit about science topics. Fifth-and sixth-grade students engage in special projects each year. Fifth-graders work with area artists to create “legacy” projects. The projects can be in the form of permanent art installations at the students’ schools or performances that are recorded. This year, former Roswell Artist-in-Residence fellow Jessica Kirkpatrick is working with Monterey Elementary School students to create cyanotype prints depicting people and events of historical importance to New Mexico.

Some schools this year have had students write and perform plays about topics of their choosing, which have ranged from Dr. Seuss to dog shows. Sixth-graders participate in the “Rakuto-Go” multisession program taught by renowned local sculptor Aria Finch. The project involves outdoor firing of student creations that are ultimately constructed into totem poles displayed at the students’ schools and in other public venues. The Arts Connect program in Roswell also puts student work on display at several public events each year, including the Eastern New Mexico State Fair, the Roswell Museum and Art Center Block Party and at school board meetings. The largest event Arts Connect puts on is Celebrate the Arts Day, which this year takes place Saturday, March 29. The allday event includes performances, as well as exhibits from kindergarten through fifth-grade students. Phillips and Simmons say that equity and excellence are the overall aspirations of Arts Connect. Simmons says what this means is that Arts Connect is focused on bringing art to all students. “If the child is not having a great experience ... then we haven’t done what we want to do,” she says. “That’s what we aspire to, to provide excellence and equity in the arts for every student in RISD.”

Don’t use social media to vent about marriage

Q: Is there anything wrong with seeking support from my Facebook friends when I need to “vent” about my marriage? Sometimes I get frustrated and upset with my spouse, and feel like I need to express my feelings to someone who cares and understands. Jim: Everyone needs to “vent” once in a while, and there’s a place for it in any relationship. But that place isn’t Facebook. If you air your dirty laundry in an open forum, you’ll only hurt your marriage and destroy trust between you and your spouse. Because venting is intensely personal, it should be done only with someone you trust, who understands your situation, and who has a personal interest in the emotions you’re experiencing. The purpose is to get your feelings out in the open so that you can take a second look at them, view them more impersonally and

evaluate them. This is an important part of the process of communicating with loved ones, setting and readjusting goals, and making necessary changes. But it should only be done in a private setting with a trusted confidant. If you need to vent, take it offline. If the two of you find it difficult to communicate, locate a trained marriage counselor who can help you work through your issues. If you need to let someone else know what’s going on, open your heart to a spiritual mentor, a parent, a sibling, a pastor or a close friend. Don’t make yourself vulnerable with anyone but a person you know you can trust. As for your Facebook “friends,” you can let them know that you need prayer without discussing any details. That’s as much information as they need. Q: I’m a single mom of a teenage son who’s never been given any responsibility. He’s

Is it too late to turn this around? Dr. Greg Smalley, Vice President, Family Ministries: It’s never too late to require ageappropriate responsibility from a child. And with a humble approach and firm resolve, you could start seeing some immediate progress. Begin by having an honest conversation with him. Let him know

that you’ve been misguided in your efforts to show compassion toward him, and that you’re sorry you haven’t given him the opportunities he’s needed to grow as a man. Sincerely apologize, ask forgiveness, and then ask him to join you in making some positive changes that will benefit both of you. How the discussion moves from there will depend on his response. Your goal is for him to buy in and you want to avoid a power struggle. He may be cooperative and agreeable, but regardless, he should understand that his participation isn’t voluntary. Discuss what’s involved in running a home. Because everything’s been taken care of for him, he probably has no clue what all needs to be done. Once you’ve painted that picture, invite him to suggest what responsibilities he’d like to take on. Again, don’t ask him “if” he could help

around the house. Make a list of chores that need to get done and let him pick. At first, you may need to work with him to provide instruction and show him what results are acceptable. It’s also critical that you determine and clearly communicate what the consequences will be if chores don’t get done. Accountability and consistency will be the keys to your success.

Post Traumatic Stress Disorder

The anxiety disorder PTSD usually follows a stressful life event, such as being in combat, being assaulted, or experiencing domestic abuse. Following the incidents, the person “re-lives” the experience, may have flash-backs, nightmares, and strong, uncomfortable reactions to the event. PTSD usually disturbs ones day-to-day living, making it difficult for them to go about their normal routine. Therapy can help these people to address the situation. The prevalence of PTSD is that 7-8 percent of the total population will experience it at some point in their life. However, when it comes to military members, the number of those who experience it is much higher. Up to 20 percent of those who served in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars experience it, 10 percent of those who served in the Gulf War, and 30 percent of Vietnam veterans experience it. Guardians of Rescue have an animal therapy program, through their Animals Helping People Program, that helps people, such as military members with PTSD. The program pairs PTSD trained therapy dogs with veterans who need the therapy. The program has been successful in pairing numerous dogs with military members. They are ready to provide the assistance to others as well. Treated, people can overcome the issue and go on to live a normal life. Left untreated, they can often go on to experience depression, alcohol or drug addiction, and related medical conditions. Based in New York, Guardians of Rescue is an organization whose mission is to protect the well being of all animals. They provide aid to animals in distress, including facilitating foster programs, rehabilitation, assisting other rescue groups, and providing support to families, both military and no, who need assistance due to economic factors. To learn more about Guardians of Rescue, visit their website at: www.guardiansofrescue.org. “Creative Living” is produced and hosted by Sheryl Borden. The show is carried by more than 118 PBS stations in the United States, Canada, Guam and Puerto Rico and is distributed by Westlink, Albuquerque.

(AP) Why wait for dessert to give your Valentine’s Day dinner a sweet touch? We’ve created a delicious savory dinner that has a sweet side thanks to a touch of honey. Start with homemade pasta tossed with a lemon-honey sauce and chopped fresh herbs. Don’t be intimidated by making pasta from scratch. If you enjoy cooking together, dumping the ingredients on the counter and knead them together into a dough. Or for ease, do it in the food processor. Either way, the fun is in rolling it out and cutting it. No special equipment needed. While you’re working on the pasta, roast the second course — honey-pepper olives and green beans with shrimp. And for dessert? Keep it simple. Fresh strawberries drizzled with honey.

Handmade pasta with lemon, herbs and honey

Start to finish: 45 minutes Servings: 4 For the pasta: 2 cups all-purpose flour 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 eggs 2 tablespoons olive oil 2 tablespoons water For the sauce: Zest and juice of 2 lemons 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 2 tablespoons honey 1/2 cup mixed torn fresh herbs (such as parsley, chervil, basil, tarragon and

chives) Salt and ground black pepper Parmesan cheese, to serve In a food processor, combine the flour, salt, eggs, olive oil and water. Process until the dough forms a ball. Continue processing for another minute to knead the dough. Transfer the ball of dough to the counter. Cover with an overturned bowl or plastic wrap and let rest for 30 minutes. Once the dough has rested, cut it in half. Using a rolling pin, one at a time roll each half out on a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into an oblong as thin as possible. Using a pizza wheel or paring knife, cut the dough into long strips or irregular squares. Sprinkle the cut pasta with a bit of flour or cornmeal to prevent it from sticking. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Drop the pasta into the water and cook until al dente, about 3 to 5 minutes. When the pasta has cooked, drain it, then return it to the pot. Add the lemon zest and juice, butter and honey. Toss until the butter is melted. Add the herbs, then toss again. Season with salt and pepper. Serve topped with grated Parmesan.

True West Magazine names Lincoln the ‘Best Preserved Pioneer Town’

True West Magazine has named the town of Lincoln the “Best Preserved Pioneer Town” for the second year in a row. The award will be announced in the February 2014 issue. Lincoln is joined in the awards by other wellknown Lincoln County sites such as the Ellis Store in Lincoln and the Lincoln County Cowboy Symposium in Ruidoso as well as such other New Mexico sites as La Fonda Hotel and the Pink Adobe Restaurant in Santa Fe. The town’s five museums are housed within historic buildings operated together as the Lincoln Historic Site — some 17 structures and outbuildings, such as the Old Lincoln County Courthouse, used at one time or another as a private home, Masonic Lodge, store and jail. The shelves of the Tunstall Store are still stocked with the original 19th-century merchandise, the village’s Torreón still stands tall, and services are still held in the historic San Juan Mission Church. Manager Gary Cozzens is extremely proud of the award. “Both the Lincoln Historic Site and citizens of the community of Lincoln have worked to keep the town preserved much as it was in the late 1800s when Billy the Kid and Pat Garrett walked the streets. It is also the most popular state historic site with up to 30,000 visitors a year,”

Merchandise in the Tunstall Store.

Cozzens was quoted as saying in a press release. More about the Lincoln Historic Site, a division of the New Mexico Department of Cultural Affairs, may be found by visiting nmmonuments.org/lincoln. New Mexico Historic Sites are culturally significant sites located throughout the state. Founded in 1931 as a part of the Museum of New Mexico and originally called State Monuments, New Mexico Historic Sites preserve and interpret the state’s diverse history and pre-history. There are currently eight state Historic Sites – Coronado in Bernalillo, Jemez near Jemez Springs, El Camino International Heritage Center south of Socorro, Lincoln and Fort

10 Super Bowl Ads to watch out for

Roswell Daily Record

NEW YORK (AP) — Actress Scarlett Johansson gives SodaStream some sex appeal in a controversial spot, Kia revives actor Laurence Fishburne’s “Matrix” character Morpheus in its commercial. And cute puppies and kids abound in ads for Cheerios to AnheuserBusch. Advertisers are planning to pull out the tools in their arsenal during Super Bowl time this Sunday, including celebrities, A-list rock bands and cinematic story lines. Of course, there will still be ad surprises on Sunday with major brands like Chrysler and CocaCola staying mum on at least one of their ads. But the ones that are already out use a variety of tactics to draw viewers’ attention. Overall, marketers are doing a better job getting their branding message across — while still entertaining — than previous years when a cheap joke or gag ruled supreme, says Kelly O’Keefe, professor of brand strategy at the Virginia Commonwealth University Brand Center. “This year there’s much more focus on brand personality: the spot has to be both interesting and funny and link back to the core assets of the brand,” he said. “I’m predicting a stronger Super Bowl than last year.” Advertisers are in the

game to win. The Super Bowl is advertising’s biggest showcase, with more than 108 million people expected to tune into the game. And companies are paying an estimated $4 million to have their ads be a part of the action. Here are 10 ads to watch for on Sunday. 1. Anheuser-Busch: The biggest Super Bowl advertiser’s ad in the fourth quarter shows an adorable Golden Labrador becoming enamored with one of the beermaker’s iconic Clydesdales to the tune of “Let Her Go” by Passenger. 2. General Mill’s Cheerios: The cereal maker brings back an interracial family that starred in a prior spot. This one shows a father telling his daughter that they’re going to have an addition to the family, a baby boy. Then, the little girl strongly suggests they also get a puppy. The ad airs during the first unscheduled time-out of the game. 3. Bank of America: The bank will promote its partnership with AIDS nonprofit (RED) by having music group U2 sing their new single “Invisible.” between the first and second quarter. The song will be a free download on iTunes during the game and for the following 24 hours. Bank of America will donate $1 each time it is downloaded to the Global Fund to Fight AIDS.

Actress Helen Mirren "twerks" onstage during her roast as woman of the year by Harvard University's Hasty Pudding Theatricals in Cambridge, Mass., Thursday.

Mirren receives Harvard’s Hasty Pudding honor CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (AP) — Helen Mirren has been honored as woman of the year by Harvard University’s Hasty Pudding Theatricals, twerking as part of the traditional spoof roast on Thursday. Mirren at first tried to sign the word “twerk,” then let slip a curse word and danced. She said she’s tried to twerk privately in her bedroom and having to do it in public was humiliating. She also joked that being honored by Prince Charles as Dame of the British Empire at Buckingham Palace didn’t come anywhere close to getting the ceremonial Hasting Pudding pot at Harvard. The festivities also included a parade. Mirren, 68, won the 2007 best actress Oscar

for her role as Queen Elizabeth II in “The Queen” and has been nominated on three other occasions. She also appeared in “Age of Consent, “Gosford Park” and “The Madness of King George.”

She said she’d still like to play the powerful 18th century Russian monarch, Catherine The Great.

Mirren said she’s rooting for “12 Years A Slave” at this year’s Oscars.

Hasty Pudding Theatricals is America’s oldest undergraduate drama troupe. It annually honors performers who have made a lasting and impressive contribution to entertainment. Actor Neil Patrick Harris will be honored as man of the year Feb. 7.

4. SodaStream: The Israeli at-home soda maker company has stirred up controversy on two fronts. Their ad features “Her” actress Scarlett Johansson touting the health and environmental benefits of the soda maker and will run in the fourth quarter. The ad first made waves when the company said it would delete its last line, “Sorry, Coke and Pepsi,” at a request by Fox. Then on Thursday, Johansson resigned her Oxfam ambassadorship. The nonprofit was unhappy she was linked with SodaStream, which operates in Israeli settlements in the West Bank of Palestine. Oxfam is opposed to that. 5. H&M: The clothing maker’s ad in the second quarter features nifty technology that will allow people with some Samsung Smart TVs to order soccer star David Beckham’s Bodywear products with their remote control in real time. 6. Nestle’s Butterfinger: A suggestive teaser ad showed a couple, “Chocolate” and “Peanut Butter,” in ’70s-style couple’s therapy talking about the need for “change” and “excitement.” The actual ad in the third quarter will have a related theme and Butter finger is expected to introduce its Peanut Butter Cups with some tongue-in-cheek double entendres.

Detroit” ad in 2011 to last year’s “Farmer” ad featuring scenes of American farmland and a voiceover by conservative radio broadcaster Paul Harvey. Look for another surprising spot or two this year.

Johansson parts with Oxfam over ad

JERUSALEM (AP) — Scarlett Johansson has parted ways with the international charity Oxfam because of a dispute over her work for SodaStream, a company operating in a West Bank settlement that features the Hollywood star in an ad that will air during the Super Bowl. Johansson became the latest casualty of a widening campaign to boycott the settlements, drawing attention to a larger debate about whether Israel will become an international pariah, at a steep economic price, if it fails to reach a peace deal with the Palestinians. Israeli Finance Minister Yair Lapid stoked such fears this week, warning that if negotiations break down “and we enter a reality of a European boycott, even a very partial one, Israel’s economy will retreat backward and every

Johansson

Israeli citizen will feel it straight in the pocket.” His comments reflected a growing sense in Israel that the coming weeks will be decisive for the country’s future. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is formulating ideas for an Israeli-Palestinian framework agreement and is expected to present them next month.

Israeli and Palestinian leaders have balked at some of his expected proposals and, if sticking to their positions, could derail what is widely seen as a last chance for ending a long-festering conflict. Meanwhile, European officials have warned that Israel could face deepening economic isolation if it presses forward with the construction of settlements in the West Bank and east Jerusalem, war-won lands the Palestinians want for their state. The fate of dozens of settlements, home to 550,000 Israelis, is a key sticking point in the talks. Johansson, 29, stepped into that controversy this month when she agreed to become a global brand ambassador for SodaStream, a Tel Aviv-based company that makes home soda machines and has its main plant in an Israeli

industrial park next to the West Bank settlement of Maaleh Adumim. The actress, nominated four times for a Golden Globe, is to appear in a SodaStream ad during the Super Bowl on Sunday. Her decision riled Oxfam International, a humanitarian aid organization for which she had served as global ambassador for eight years, helping raise donations for victims of natural disasters in Indonesia and the Philippines, among other causes. On Wednesday, Johansson said in a statement that she was stepping down from that role, citing a “fundamental difference of opinion” with Oxfam. The actress, whose movies over the past two years include “The Avengers” and “Her,” said she supports economic cooperation between “a democratic Israel and Palestine.”

Cases may mean more than legal woes for Bieber

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Justin Bieber’s court cases on both sides of the U.S.Canadian border could complicate the pop star’s jet-setting ways as his troubles bring more scrutiny by judges and prosecutors, Legal experts said a decision by Toronto authorities to charge the 19-year -old Bieber with assault on Wednesday makes his legal situation more complicated and difficult to untangle. He is already facing a driving under the influence case in Miami and remains under investigation for felony vandalism in California. All the cases are in the early stages and it’s uncertain whether the Grammynominated singer might be convicted of any charges. But if he is, it would impact how judges deal with him, said Stanley L. Friedman, a former federal prosecutor who now practices criminal defense in Los Angeles. “I think the legal system is much more likely to treat him harshly as somebody who needs to be taught a lesson,” Friedman said. “Now he’s become a nation-

thousands of dollars in damage. If Bieber is charged in that case, a California judge may look at him more harshly in light of the Florida and Toronto cases, said Stan Goldman, a criminal law professor at Loyola Law School, Los Angeles.

al poster child for being a bad boy.” Andrew Flier, a criminal defense attorney who has represented sports stars and actors, said immigration issues are likely Bieber’s biggest problem at this point. If the singer is convicted, he could get closer scrutiny when traveling from his homeland of Canada to the U.S., where he now lives. “Multiple convictions even on misdemeanors could be troublesome to the non-citizen,” Flier said. Bieber has pleaded not

guilty to DUI, resisting arrest without violence and driving without a valid license in the Miami case. A preliminary toxicology report released Thursday showed that he tested positive for marijuana and the anti-anxiety drug Xanax. Bieber told police after the arrest that he had been smoking marijuana and had taken a prescription drug. In California, the singer remains under investigation for an egg-tossing incident that left his neighbor’s house with

“The fact that you’ve got three is a heck of a lot worse than one,” Goldman said.

Bieber has not addressed the vandalism claim in Califor nia, and his attorney Howard Weitzman has said the singer’s legal team believes their client is innocent in the Toronto case. Friedman agreed and said Bieber’s other cases might make it more likely that he will be charged in Los Angeles. Prosecutors have a lot of discretion in how they pursue cases, and a judge has limited influence in the early stages about what deal Bieber might be offered or whether the case goes forward.

Obama asks CEOs for help hiring long-term jobless WASHINGTON (AP) — Confronting the persistent joblessness that has marred the economic recovery, President Barack Obama won commitments Friday from more than 300 companies to reach out in their hiring to the nearly 4 million Americans who have been unemployed for half a year or more. “It’s a cruel Catch-22,” Obama said at a White House event with CEOs, job training groups and advocates for the unemployed. “The longer you’re unemployed, the more unemployable you may seem.” Obama called that “an illusion” because, he said, such workers are often better qualified and better educated than workers who just recently lost their jobs. In addition to convening CEOs and getting their hiring pledges, Obama also signed a presidential memo directing federal agencies not to discrimi-

nate against those longterm unemployed workers in its own hiring practices. As a percentage of the total labor force, the number of people who have been unemployed for more than 27 weeks — 3.9 million — is the highest in four decades. The number doesn’t include Americans who have been looking for so long that they have given up. For policymakers, the number of such workers is particularly troublesome when it persists even as the economy grows. Behind the numbers are the faces of unemployed machinists like Vincent Gates in Cincinnati or cashier Bill Paci in Philadelphia or Barbara Greene of Colorado Springs, Colo., who worked for decades as a medical receptionist before becoming jobless. “At this point, at 44, I’m trying to get a skilled trade,” Gates said. “I feel like they don’t look at me as a good long-ter m

investment” for training. Paci, who was laid off in September from a cashier job, believes a higher minimum wage or federal spending on civic improvement and infrastructure projects would better help the unemployed and wonders why any CEO would feel any obligation to Obama to hire the longterm unemployed. “He could say that, but there’s no pressure on these people to do that,” he said. Greene, 59, who has been out of work for almost a year, said the president’s push doesn’t make up for the looming expiration of her unemployment benefits due to congressional gridlock. “I think he’s blowing smoke,” she said. “I don’t see anybody, Congress or anybody, who wants to do anything about it.” Obama’s event and his memo-signing illustrated the types of targeted, nonlegislative measures he promised to undertake to

Google’s misstep could be Lenovo’s boon SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — An expensive mistake by Google could turn into a golden opportunity for China’s Lenovo Group as it expands beyond its success in the personal computer industry.

Google is ridding itself of a financial headache by selling Motorola Mobility’s smartphone business to Lenovo for $2.9 billion. The deal announced late Wednesday comes less than two years after Google bought Motorola Mobility for $12.4 billion in the biggest acquisition

of Google’s 15-year history. While Google Inc. is backpedaling, Lenovo Group Ltd. is gearing up for a major expansion. Already the world’s largest PC maker, Lenovo is now determined to become a bigger player in smartphones as more people rely on them instead of laptop and desktop computers to go online. Lenovo already is among the smartphone leaders in its home country, but it has been looking for ways to expand its presence in

other markets, especially the U.S. and Latin America. The company had been rumored to be among the prospective buyers for BlackBerry Ltd. when that troubled smartphone maker was mulling a sale last year. “We will be going from an emerging-market player to a worldwide player in smartphones,” Lenovo CEO Yang Yuanqing said in an interview with The Associated Press. This marks Lenovo’s second high-profile deal this month. The company

testosterone have increased more than five-fold in recent years, with sales over $1.6 billion. Testosterone injections have long been used for men with hypogonadism, a disorder defined by low testosterone caused by injury or infection to the reproductive organs. But the latest marketing push by drugmakers is for easy-to-use gels and patches that are aimed at a much broader population of otherwise healthy older men with low levels of testosterone, the male hormone that begins to decline in the body after age 40. Drugmakers and many doctors claim testosterone therapy can reverse some unpleasant of the signs of aging — ranging from insomnia to erectile dysfunction. Those claims are mostly based on short-term studies. The National Institute on

Aging is currently conducting a long-term, 800-man trial to definitively answer whether testosterone therapy improves walking ability, sexual function, energy, memory and blood cell count in men 65 years and older.

announced plans last week to buy a major piece of IBM Corp.’s computer server business for $2.3 billion. For Google, the sale is a tacit admission that a company that prides itself on employing some of the world’s smartest people miscalculated how much Motorola was worth. Google previously recovered some of the money that it spent on Motorola by selling its set-top operations last year to Arris Group Inc. for $2.35 billion.

tive victories are slim in in an election year and with a divided Congress.

“Just because you’ve been out of work for a while does not mean that you are not a hard worker,”

Obama said. “Just means you had bad luck or you were in the wrong industry or you lived in a region of the country that’s catching up a little slower than others in the recovery.”

Small investors on edge as stocks drop worldwide

NEW YORK (AP) — January’s global sell-of f in stocks has left many small investors more puzzled than panicked — and unsure how to act. They’re holding on for now as prices continue to tumble, but their anxiety is mounting. The number of small investors who say they feel “bearish” soared this past week, according to a U.S. survey. Some stock funds have been hit with their biggest withdrawals since 2012. If more people start selling, it would reverse a new and surprising trend in some of the world’s biggest economies: individuals moving back into stocks after years of shunning them. “I don’t know what to do,” says Ken Duska, a retiree in Mingo Junction, Ohio, who is sticking with his investment plan for the moment, though he’s not sure that’s wise. “After (the) upswing last year, it probably isn’t going to continue.” Small investors around the world were on edge even before growing signs of a slowdown in China and plunging emerging-market currencies dragged many stock indexes down to their worst start of a new year since 2010. They worried stocks were overdue for a

drop, after soaring by double-digit percentages in countries like the United States, Japan and France in 2013. In the U.S., many noted, the market had not fallen by 10 percent or more, known on Wall Street as a correction, for more than two years. Now, with the Dow Jones industrial average down 5 percent from a recent peak, one is closer at hand. “The question is, ‘Is this all of it, or is there significantly more to come?”’ says Greg Sarian, a managing director at the Sarian Group at HighTower, a wealth advisory fir m in Pennsylvania. Anxiety has ramped up in Asia, too. “Clients were very worried as they haven’t seen such market jitters in a while,” says Lee Younghwan, a private banking consultant at Daishin Securities Co. in Seoul, South Korea. Still, he says that many are more inclined to snap up stocks now at lower prices, than to bail out. That country’s main index, the Kospi, is down 3.5 percent since the start of the year. In Japan, the Nikkei is off 8.5 percent, after soaring 58 percent last year.

FDA reviews the safety of Reports suggest 2014 could be testosterone therapy for men an election year awash in money

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Food and Drug Administration said Friday it is reviewing the safety of popular testosterone drugs for men in light of recent studies suggesting they can increase the risk of heart attack, stroke and death. A study published earlier this week suggested testosterone therapy could double the risk of those problems in men older than 65. Another study published in November found that the hormone increased the risk by 30 percent. The FDA said it is evaluating infor mation from those studies and others but hasn’t yet reached any conclusion. The investigation comes amid an advertising blitz for testosterone gels, patches and injections marketed for low sex drive, fatigue and other age-related ailments in men. U.S. prescriptions for

Meanwhile the market for testosterone replacements has grown increasingly crowded.

The top-selling product in the field is Abbvie’s Androgel, which is applied to the shoulders and arms. Watson Pharmaceuticals markets the Androder m patch, which slowly releases testosterone into the bloodstream. Fortesta is another testosterone gel from Endo Pharmaceuticals, and Eli Lilly’s Axiron is an underar m gel that rolls on like deodorant.

WASHINGTON (AP) — An early but incomplete snapshot of 2013’s political fundraising came into focus Friday, suggesting this election year will be flooded with money. The political parties’ federal campaign committees spent $300 million — in a year when just two states had special Senate elections and six House districts had unplanned races. The parties raised $371 million for federal races and another $78.3 million for governors. All told, the major committees collected about $450 million in 2013. That sum leaves out individual candidates’ hauls and doesn’t count many of the outside advocacy groups, which didn’t share Friday’s deadline to report to the Federal Election Commission. Friday’s top-line num-

bers put Democrats slightly ahead of Republicans, but not by such a margin that would decide the fate of candidates in 2014. Taken with the Democratic National Committee’s almost $16 million debt and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee’s $3.75 million in red ink, they are roughly even. The DNC started 2013 with $20 million in debt. The DSCC started its year with $15.7 million in debt. Heading into this year, the reports suggest heavy spending will be the nor m. The Republican National Committee alone spent $76 million last year, largely on rebuilding its campaign technology and hiring operatives to work alongside state parties. “The reason we did

pretty well raising money in 2013 is that we were selling a plan to the people that were going to invest in the RNC,” party chairman Reince Priebus said earlier this month. “The plan was putting boots on the ground early, getting into Hispanic, African-American and Asian communities, solving a primary and debate problem that we’ve all talked about a lot, and fixing a pretty big digital and data problem.”

The Republican National Committee said it raised almost $81 million last year and has $9 million in hand to keep working on a technology gap that, in part, cost it the last two presidential races. The RNC said it’s debt-free.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: One of my childhood friends got married at a young age. She’s now expecting and due in a few months. Every day she messages me on Facebook about something else her husband has done to cause her emotional stress. For example, a few weeks ago she found flirtatious erotic messages he had exchanged with another girl. I want to help her because we have been friends for so long. We’re both 19, and I feel I should know how to help her, but since I’ve never been married I don’t

know what to say. Any advice? FRIEND IN KENTUCKY

DEAR FRIEND: What a sad situation. Your friend is married to someone who apparently doesn’t want to be married — and it’s open to question whether he will be much of a parent. If she has family, she should talk to them about this because she may need their help soon. She should also make plans for how she will support herself and the child, because her husband appears to be a flake. Please pass this advice along. And let this be a lesson to you about the importance of achieving independence before assuming the responsibility of parenthood.

DEAR ABBY: My mother is in her mid-90s. Several of her lifelong friends, widows, still live in their own homes, as she does. However, they no longer drive. A phone call would help them

communicate directly with each other about life situations, but it doesn’t seem to happen. Instead of calling and talking to each other, they hear about each other third-hand. Is it typical for the elderly to abandon each other and be so cruel? If so, what could help people communicate better regardless of age? CONCERNED SON IN COLORADO

DEAR SON: Not everyone in their 90s ages the same way. Some individuals are still active; others are less so. When seniors stop driving, there can be a tendency for them to become isolated and depressed. Others may be taking medications that affect their memory. A way to help people in your mother’s age group would be to see that they have transportation to a senior center, where they can mingle face-to-face if they wish. I recommend this for your mother and her friends because I’m sure

none of them are being deliberately cruel.

Family Circus

DEAR ABBY: I am an addict of Turner Classic Movies and wondered how those handsome actors and beautiful actresses control their libido during passionate love scenes. Or is there more to it than appears? FILM BUFF IN ENCINITAS, CALIF.

DEAR FILM BUFF: Generally speaking, what an audience sees on the screen isn’t an amorous encounter. Every gesture has been carefully choreographed. There may be a lot more acting than passion involved. (That’s why it’s called acting.) Remember, there is a director and there can be a crew of as many as 30 people standing around. Of course, there are always exceptions — Liz Taylor and Richard Burton would be one of them, and Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie would be another.

We also leave a sheet of all the typical emergency information our sitter MAY (but hopefully doesn’t!) need. I like throwing a few snacks in for the sitter so he or she doesn’t have to go hunting for food in our house.

Homer Durham, Martin Luther King, Jr., Ralph Abernathy, an unidentified participant, Rev. Louis Eaton and Msgr. Robert Donahoe at Goodwin Stadium, Arizona State University. Above: This undated photo provided by Arizona State University Libraries, shows Martin Luther King ASU speech 1964 tape box with audio reel with typed label "M L King Tempe 1964."

Tape of MLK Jr. Ariz. speech found PHOENIX (AP) — Mary Scanlon had no idea a $3 purchase from a Goodwill store in Phoenix would turn out to be a rare link to the civil rights movement’s most revered leader. Last April, Scanlon was at the thrift store when she spotted a pile of 35 vintage reel-to-reel tapes, including one labeled with the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.’s name. Despite the moldy and torn packaging, she snapped up all of them. “I didn’t really necessarily have any expectation that this tape would be rare,” Scanlon said. Arizona State University archivists have found that

tape is the only known recording of speeches the slain civil rights leader gave at ASU and at a Phoenix church in June 1964. The hour-long audio has since been digitized and is now available for listening on ASU’s website through June 30. The tape illustrates that King had been eager to visit supporters in Arizona, a state that would draw criticism more than 20 years later for rescinding the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. Scanlon, who donated all the tapes to the school, said the find is one of the high points of her life. “To have anything about myself connected in any

Anti-gay law protests focus on Sochi games

NEW YORK (AP) — Despite seven months of inter national outcry, Russia’s law restricting gay-rights activity remains in place. Yet the eclectic protest campaign has heartened activists in Russia and caught the attention of its targets — including organizers and sponsors of the Sochi Olympics that open on Feb. 7. Over the past two weeks, two major sponsors, Coca-Cola and McDonald’s, have seen some of their Sochi-related social media campaigns commandeered by gayrights supporters who want the companies to condemn the law. Several activists plan to travel to Sochi, hoping to team up with sympathetic athletes to protest the law while in the Olympic spotlight. And on Friday, a coalition of 40 humanrights and gay-rights groups from the U.S., Western Europe and Russia — including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and the Human Rights Campaign — released an open letter to the 10 biggest Olympic sponsors, urging them to denounce the law and run ads promoting equality for lesbians, gays, bisexuals and transgender people. “LGBT people must not be targeted with violence or deprived of their ability to advocate for their own equality,” the letter said. “As all eyes turn toward Sochi, we ask you to stand with us.” The law, signed by Russian President Vladimir Putin in July, bans pro-gay “propaganda” that could be accessible to minors — a measure viewed by activists as forbidding almost any public expression of gay-rights sentiment. The law cleared parliament virtually unopposed and has extensive public support in Russia. Since July, when they launched a boycott of Russian vodka, activists have pressed the International Olympic Committee and Olympic sponsors to call for the law’s repeal. Instead, the IOC and top sponsors have expressed general opposition to discrimination and pledged to ensure that athletes, spectators and others gathering for the Games would not be affected by the law. Putin has given similar assurances in regard to Sochi, but remains committed to the law’s broader purposes.

way to Martin Luther King, what more could a person ask for? I’m so proud,” Scanlon said. Rob Spindler, a university archivist and curator, said it’s miraculous that the audio was still intact. When he first spoke with Scanlon, he immediately warned her not to try and play the tape. “When the material is that old, sometimes you only get one shot to preserve it,” Spindler said. The tapes were taken from the Ragsdale Mortuary, which was owned by Lincoln Ragsdale, a civil rights leader in Phoenix who died in 1995, Goodwill employees said. Spindler sent the tapes to

a company in Kentucky to copy them to a digital format. On May 17, Spindler, Scanlon, a university librarian and two ASU prowho have fessors researched King gathered to listen to the recording for the first time. Hearing King’s voice brought most of them to tears. “It answers a question we’ve had for decades,” said Spindler, who believes it was King’s first public appearance in Arizona. “What did Martin Luther King say to us that night and how did he arrive here in Phoenix? Now we have a much better idea of those things.” Arizona was the last stop on a West Coast tour

King had been doing, Spindler said. The university and the local chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People worked to get the preacher to come. About 8,000 people attended the June 3 speech at Goodwin Stadium that started about 8 p.m. In his remarks, King focused on the Civil Rights Act, which at the time was stuck in a filibuster in the U.S. Senate. Keith Miller, an ASU English professor who has written two books on King, said King’s visit affirmed the importance of Arizona’s African-American community. While African Americans made up about

2 to 3 percent of the state population, there was an active group in Phoenix that conducted sit-ins and protests, Miller said. The afternoon before the ASU event, King spoke for five minutes to the black community at Historic Tanner Chapel African Episcopal Methodist Church, Phoenix’s oldest African-American church. He tells the audience being in Arizona is “a privilege” and that he had “longed to come here for a long, long time.” He also says his remarks will be brief because of illness but jokes, “Briefness is always a magnificent accomplishment for a Baptist preacher.”

Labs set record in popularity NEW YORK (AP) — It’s puppy love for the record books: The Labrador retriever was the nation’s most popular dog breed last year for a 23rd year in a row, the American Kennel Club announced Friday. That’s the longest any breed has been top dog since the organization’s 1884 founding. German shepherds, golden retrievers, beagles and bulldogs are holding steady in the top-five pack, with Yorkshire terriers, boxers, poodles, Rottweilers and dachshunds continuing to round out the leading 10, which mirrors last year. But the comical French bulldog is newly on their heels after a decade-long popularity spurt. Surpassing the poodle’s 22year reign some decades ago, the Lab has proliferated as a congenial, highly trainable dog that was developed to fetch game but has readily taken on other roles: searchand-rescue aid, therapy dog, competitor in canine sports and all-around family pet. “They’re a very versatile dog. They’ll adapt to just about anything,” says Michael Wiest of Warren, N.J., who has bred them for 45 years. The rankings reflect newly registered dogs, mostly puppies. The AKC doesn’t release exact numbers but estimates its registry has included more than 40 million purebred dogs over its history. The top 10 remains a testament to the variety of purebreds, from the pert, portable Yorkie to the muscular, purposeful Rottweiler. But overall, the AKC has logged some leaning toward larger dogs in the past decade. Shih tzus and Chihuahuas have dropped out of the top 10, while Rottweilers and

bulldogs have marched in. Such big breeds as the Doberman pinscher, the Bernese mountain dog and even the great Dane have made double-digit gains on the popularity ladder. But no breed has rocketed up the rankings quite like the French bulldog, now the nation’s 11th most popular purebred after its numbers more than quadrupled in the last 10 years. The Frenchie was 14th last year - and 58th in 2002. With foreshortened faces, large pointed ears and an attitude that’s been described as “a clown in the cloak of a philosopher,” French bulldogs were in vogue in the U.S. around the turn of the 20th century. Then their popularity waned until recent years, when they’ve gotten exposure in such venues as Martha Stewart’s chic-domesticity empire, TV’s “Modern Family” and a 2012 Skechers Super Bowl commercial. Some people flock to Frenchies because they’re compact and don’t need a lot of exercise or elaborate coat care. After 15 years of breeding cocker spaniels, Gale Golden developed tendinitis in her elbow and had dif ficulty brushing them, so she decided to try the short-coated Frenchie. Now she has eight. “They have so many funny and endearing qualities,” including being people-oriented, said Golden, of Marlborough, Mass. “A Frenchie is everyone’s friend.” Still, popularity causes some consternation for aficionados, who fear demand can drive irresponsible breeding. To be sure, dog breeding in general has critics who feel

it’s more focused on human tastes than canine health and draws dog lovers away from mixed-breed pets that need homes. Purebred fans counter

that conscientious breeding aims to create healthy dogs with somewhat predictable traits, helping people and dogs make lasting pairings.
