Brighter outlook for US as Chaves County vaccinations rise and deaths fall reaches Green
Level
By Julie Watson and Carla K. Johnson The Associated Press
More than three months into the U.S. vaccination drive, many of the numbers paint an increasingly encouraging picture, with 70% of Americans 65 and older receiving at least one dose of the vaccine and COVID-19 deaths dipping below 1,000 a day on average for the first time since November. Also, dozens of states have thrown open vaccinations to all adults or are planning to do so in a matter of weeks. And the White House said 27 million doses of both the one-shot and two-shot vaccines will be distribut-

Area government planners talk about marijuana zoning
By Lisa Dunlap Roswell Daily Record
Planners for the city of Roswell and Chaves County are asking their governing boards and commissions to think about how a legal recreational marijuana industry might impact zoning regulations and government ordinances should the New Mexico Legislature decide to authorize it this year. New Mexico has had a legal medical marijuana industry since 2007, and five bills to regulate recreational marijuana were considered by the 2021 regular session of the New Mexico Legislature that ended Saturday. House Bill 12 made it the furthest, passing the House of Representatives on Feb. 26 by a vote of 39 to 31 and receiving the approval of two Senate committees.
But the entire Senate did not vote on it during the final days of the session. Because no bill passed, Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham and her staff have said that she intends to call a special session of the Legislature soon to work on the legislation. Chaves County Planning and Zoning Director Louis Jaramillo recommended to the five members of the Roswell-Chaves County Extraterritorial Authority during its Tuesday night meeting that they familiarize themselves with House Bill 12 and consider what changes might need to be made to the zoning ordinances. The extraterritorial zone, or ETZ, covers properties in the county that also are within

Chaves County’s continued improvement in reducing the spread of COVID-19 pushed it into the medium-risk Green Level in the state’s Wednesday update of the risk assessment system. The county averaged four new cases of COVID-19 per day per 100,000 people from March 9 to March 22, dropping from 9.1 for the previous two-week period, according to the New Mexico Department of Health’s COVID-19 dashboard. The threshold for the Green Level is eight or fewer. The county’s test positivi-
ty rate also improved, dropping almost a full percentage point to 1.33%, well under the target of 5% for the Green Level. Changes of restrictions under the public health order went into effect immediately upon the update Wednesday afternoon, meaning most businesses and other activities such as indoor dining and houses of worship could increase to 50% capacity from the 33% allowed in the Yellow Level. Large entertainment venues such as theaters, racetracks and concert venues can now open for indoor

Local lawmakers react to end of legislative session
By Alex Ross Roswell Daily Record
New Mexico legislators concluded their 2021 legislative session Saturday, one that will go down as unique in the state’s history. The session, which began Jan. 19, was the first regular session of the New Mexico Legislature since the pandemic began. Lawmakers had met in two short special sessions last year. For Democrats, who enjoyed their third consecutive year of unified control of state government, it was marked by considerable legislatives wins. Lawmakers representing southeast New Mexico though — specifically in districts that include Chaves County, a Republican stronghold — are glad the session is over. “My headache hasn’t gone away,” state Rep. Greg Nibert, R-Roswell, said Monday.

States sue to undo Biden pause RPD seeks on US oil & gas lease sales information in homicide
By Kevin Mcgill The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — Thirteen states sued the Biden administration Wednesday to end a suspension of new oil and gas leases on federal land and water and to reschedule canceled sales of leases in the Gulf of Mexico, Alaska waters and western states. The Republican-leaning states, led by Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry, seek a court order ending the moratorium imposed after Democratic President Joe Biden signed executive orders on climate change on Jan. 27. The suit specifically seeks

SBA relief loan amounts, terms change Roswell Daily Record
The U.S. Small Business Administration is increasing the maximum amount small businesses and non-profit organizations can borrow through its COVID-19 Economic Injury Disaster Loan (EIDL) program.
According to an SBA news release, the SBA is changing the criteria for the COVID-19 EIDL program starting April 6 so that businesses can receive up to $500,000 to cover 24 months of economic injury. Right now, the maximum loan
amount is $150,000 to cover six months of economic injury. Businesses that receive a loan subject to the current limits do not need to submit a request for an increase at this time. SBA will reach out directly via email and provide more
details about how businesses can request an increase closer to the April 6 implementation date. Any new loan applications and any loans in process when the new loan limits are implemented will automatically be considered for loans covering 24 months
of economic injury up to a maximum of $500,000. On March 12, the SBA announced that it would extend deferment periods for all disaster loans, including COVID-19 EIDLs, until 2022 to offer more time for businesses to recover. To shift all
EIDL payments to 2022, SBA will extend the first payment due date for disaster loans made in 2020 to 24 months from the date of the note and to 18 months from the date of the note for all loans made in the calendar year 2021.
NM to issue $600 one-time tax rebates amid pandemic
ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The New Mexico Taxation and Revenue Department has started issuing $600 one-time rebates for taxpayers who are not dependents and who receive the Working Families Tax Credit.

ed next week, more than three times the number when President Joe Biden took office two months ago. Still, Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government’s top infectious disease expert, said Wednesday he isn’t ready to declare victory. “I’m often asked, are we turning the corner?” Fauci said at a White House briefing. “My response is really more like we are at the corner. Whether or not we’re going to be turning that corner still remains to be seen.” What’s giving Fauci pause, he said, is that new cases remain at a stubbornly high level, at more than 50,000 per day. Nonetheless, the outlook in the U.S. stands in stark contrast to the deteriorating situation in places like Brazil, which reported more than 3,000 COVID19 deaths in a single day

an order that the government go ahead with a sale of oil and gas leases in the Gulf of Mexico that had been scheduled for March 17 until it was canceled; and a lease sale that had been planned for this year in Alaska’s Cook Inlet. And it calls for other suspended lease sales to go forward. Sales also have been postponed for federal lands in Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Montana, Oklahoma, Nevada and New Mexico. Biden and multiple federal agencies bypassed comment periods and other bureaucratic steps required before such delays can be undertaken, the states claim in the lawsuit, which was filed Wednesday in the federal court’s Western District of Louisiana. The lawsuit notes that coastal states receive significant revenue from onshore and offshore oil and gas activity. Stopping leases, the lawsuit argues, would diminish revenue that pays for Louisiana efforts to restore coastal wetlands,
The department said Tuesday that recipients must have an adjusted gross income of no more than $39,000 if they are married and filing as the head of a household, or $31,200 or less if they are single filers, the Albuquer-
que Journal reported. The Legislature authorized the rebates earlier this year, more than 110,000 rebates worth more than $66 million have already been issued. New Mexico’s Working Families Credit is worth

for the first time Tuesday, and across Europe, where another wave of infections is leading to new lockdowns. The gloom in Europe is compounded because the vaccine rollout on the continent has been slowed by production delays and questions about the safety and effectiveness of AstraZeneca’s shot. Public health experts in the U.S. are taking every opportunity to warn that relaxing social distancing and other preventive measures could easily lead to another surge. Dr. Eric Topol, head of the Scripps Research Translational Institute, sees red flags in states lifting mask mandates, air travel roaring back and spring break crowds partying out of control in Florida. “We’re getting closer to the exit ramp,” Topol said. “All we’re doing by having reopenings is jeopardizing our shot to get, finally, for the first time in the American pandemic, contain-
ment of the virus.” Across the country are unmistakable signs of progress. More than 43% of Americans 65 and older — the most vulnerable age group, accounting for an outsize share of the nation’s more than 540,000 coronavirus deaths — have been fully vaccinated, according to the CDC. The number of older adults showing up in emergency rooms with COVID-19 is down significantly. Vaccinations overall have ramped up to 2.5 million to 3 million shots per day. Deaths per day in the U.S. from COVID-19 have dropped to an average of 940, down from an alltime high of over 3,400 in mid-January. Minnesota health officials on Monday reported no new deaths from COVID-19 for the first time in nearly a year. And in New Orleans, the Touro Infirmary hospital was not treating a single case for the first time since March
2020. And Fauci cited two recent studies that show negligible levels of coronavirus infections among fully vaccinated health care workers in Texas and California. “I emphasize how we need to hang in there for just a little while longer,” Dr. Rochelle Walensky, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said Wednesday. That’s because “the early data are really encouraging.” Nationwide, new cases and the number of people hospitalized with COVID19 have plummeted over the past two months, though Walensky remains concerned that such progress seemed to stall in the past couple of weeks. New cases are running at more than 53,000 a day on average, down from a peak of a quarter-million
raise energy costs and lead to major job losses in oil producing states. Although Landry and the lawsuit’s supporters said the moratorium has already driven up prices and endangered energy jobs, Biden’s suspension doesn’t stop companies from drilling on existing leases. But a longterm halt to oil and gas sales would curb future production and could hurt states like Louisiana that are heavily dependent on the industry. Biden’s team has argued that companies still have plenty of undeveloped leases — almost 14 million acres (6 million hectares) in western states and more than 9 million acres (3.6 million hectares) offshore. Companies also have about 7,700 unused drilling permits — enough for years. “This will not affect oil and gas production or jobs for years to come,” White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said when asked about the lawsuit’s claims
at a Wednesday briefing. Administration officials have declined to say how long the pause on lease sales will last. Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Texas, Utah and West Virginia are the other plaintiff states. Western Energy Alliance, an industry lobbying group based in Colorado, sued over the leasing suspension in federal court in Wyoming on the same day it was announced. The Biden administration had not responded to the complaint as of Wednesday. The Interior Department is hosting a livestreamed forum on the leasing program Thursday as it considers changes that could affect future sales and how much companies pay for oil and gas they extract. A report outlining initial findings and the next steps in the review is due this summer.

The number of daily travelers at U.S. airports has consistently topped 1 million over the past week and a half amid spring break at many colleges. Also, states such as Michigan and New Jersey are seeing rising cases. National numbers are an imperfect indicator. The favorable downward trend in some states can conceal an increase in case numbers in others, particularly smaller ones, said Ali Mokdad, professor of health metrics sciences at the University of Washington in Seattle. And the more contagious variant that originated in Britain has now been identified in nearly every state, he said.

in early January. That’s uncomfortably close to levels seen during the COVID-19 wave of last summer. Biden has pushed for states to make all adults eligible to be vaccinated by May 1. A least a half-dozen states, including Texas, Arizona and Georgia, are opening up vaccinations to everyone over 16. At least 20 other states have pledged to do so in the next few weeks.

moving forward with the session, citing the need to provide economic relief to individuals and businesses impacted by the pandemic. The public was able to offer comment and participate by calling into committees or taking part via Zoom. Daniel Marzec, a spokesperson for the House Democratic Caucus, said Monday that 19,090 people took part in virtual hearings. Nonetheless, critics say the absence of the public’s presence did have an effect. “The crafting of public policy without the public being present made it much more difficult,” Nibert said of the session. Republicans pointed out that many New Mexicans in rural areas of the state lack access to dependable broadband service. Townsend alleged that people who did call into committee meetings had a one-minute limit on their comments. He added that each year groups from across the state devote considerable time and energy to come to Santa Fe to inform legislators of their priorities and promote their communities, something they were deprived of the chance to do this year. “People want to have the ability to go in, sit down and talk about bills that come up,” he said.
Legislation
In all, 199 pieces of legislation were forwarded to Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham’s desk for action, according to the official website of the New Mexico Legislature. They include 158 bills, 36 memorials and five resolutions. Lujan Grisham has until April 9 to sign or veto the measures. After that deadline, items not acted upon will not become law. At a press conference Saturday, Lujan Grisham touted the accomplishments of the session, including repeal of the state’s dormant 1969 law criminalizing abortion, an overhaul of the state’s liquor licensing system and some COVID-19 relief for businesses. Others items passed included a series of healthcare and environmental measures, and a state constitutional amendment that, if approved by voters, would allow a portion of money from the state’s permanent fund to be used for early childhood education. “You name a priority area, and I can tell you that we had incredible leadership and incredible success in the legislative session,” she said. Republicans though had a less favorable view. Finding themselves badly outnumbered, Republicans mounted efforts to quash some proposals, but with little success. “It didn’t matter if we debated a bill for three hours and pointed out every flaw, they still passed it because of the speaker,” state Rep. Candy Ezzell, R-Roswell, said.
the ETZ zoning rules and ordinances. “We have to pay really close attention to what they do in Santa Fe and how they put this new recreational act together,” said Jaramillo. “We have to protect our residents — the ETZ and the city and even further out in the county where they are all grouped into subdivisions. We have to, because if we don’t, it will become a mess.” Some members of the authority — with the current members being Chaves County Commissioners Richard Taylor, T. Calder Ezzell Jr. and Jeff Nibert said from his perspective much of what passed will continue to “grow government” and make it more challenging for businesses and industry to operate in New Mexico. He cited Senate Bill 8 (SB 8) as an example. The legislation, if signed, will allow the state to set air quality and hazardous waste standards more stringent than those set by the federal government. “And it is mine and many others’ belief that that is primarily focused on the oil and gas industry,” Nibert said. Millions of dollars in COVID relief was approved while the session was underway. Townsend though said the big emphasis should not have been on approving dollars for assistance but getting rid of the last vestiges of COVID restrictions placed on businesses. “That is the kind of relief they are looking for,” he said.
Bills on emergency powers
Measures introduced by Republicans were also not taken up during the session, chief among them bills designed to curtail the governor’s emergency powers. Nibert, along with state Rep. Daymon Ely, D-Corrales, sponsored two measures, one a bill and the other a joint resolution for a state constitutional amendment, that would require a governor to convene a special session when they believe any emergency order would last more than 90 days. The measure initially garnered bipartisan support, with the constitutional amendment passing the House Consumer and Public Affairs and State Government, Elections and Indian Affairs Committees. The bill passed the State Government, Elections and Indian Affairs Committee. The bill and the resolution were both slated to be taken up by the House Judiciary Committee. However, Nibert blames the governor’s vow to veto the bill, and pressure Lujan Grisham placed on Democrats to kill both measures, for dooming the effort. He said that state Rep.

Bilberry and Roswell City Councilors Margaret Kennard and Jeanine Corn Best — suggested that the county might want to consult with other counties as well as the New Mexico Counties Association to discuss ideas. Jaramillo mentioned that only 12 of the state’s 33 counties have adopted zoning ordinances. Jaramillo and authority members said that there could be many concerns about where some cannabis growers and manufacturers would be located, not only to be consistent with prior zoning decisions that require medi-
cal marijuana operations be located at least 300 feet from schools, daycares, churches and parks, but because marijuana growing and the manufacturing of cannabis-derived products have led to fires and explosions in some cases. They also discussed the potential crime issues that could develop if black market sales develop. During its meeting, the authority also approved a public meeting notice resolution and voted to select Ezzell as chairman and Best as vice-chair. Recreational marijuana also was addressed

the job,” she said. Breaking news reporter Alex Ross can be reached
Special Session
One priority that failed to reach Lujan Grisham’s desk was legislation to legalize the use, purchase, sale and production of adult-use recreational cannabis. The governor and other legalization advocates have pointed to the additional state and local revenue and added job opportunities that could result from legalization. One bill, House Bill 12 (HB 12) passed the House 39 to 31 and advanced through committees but a stack of proposed amendments prevented the bill from reaching the floor before the session ended. Lujan Grisham has floated possibly calling a special session on or around March 31 to approve a bill to make New Mexico the 16th state to legalize recreational cannabis use for adults. Some local Republicans though are opposed to the idea of returning to Santa Fe so soon after the end of a regular session. “I think it’s ridiculous,” Ezzell said. A one-day special session comes with a price tag of as much as $54,480 a day, according to a figure from 2015 provided by the Legislative Council Service. Nibert added that he does not see adult-use cannabis legalization as rising to the level of urgency that requires a special session. Townsend said that calling a special session is disrespectful to individual lawmakers and shows a disregard for the legislative process. Lujan Grisham said Saturday the unique nature of the session slowed the pace of the legislative process, and that there is enough agreement to get a

Appreciating my sense of smell more By Steve Hansen
T
UCUMCARI — I still haven’t recovered much of my sense of smell since having COVID-19, but I find I can live with limits on the sniffer, even if I can’t fully enjoy corned beef and cabbage on St. Patrick’s Day. I know I share this lingering post-COVID-19 symptom with many who have otherwise recovered from the disease. The scientific term for this condition is “anosmia,” which is pronounced “a NOSE mia.” It basically means “a nose, missing in action (mia).” There have been hundreds of thousands of words written about loss of smell, one of the most common COVID-19 and post-COVID symptoms, and why some of us don’t get it back even months after having COVID-19. The answer after all those words? Nobody knows. Usually, the articles start with a heart-wrenching tale of emotional devastation because of a handicapped nose. In some cases, like chefs and cooks, wine experts, restaurant critics and taste-testers, loss of smell can be devastating. Most of flavor is due to smell, not the five tastes from the tongue. For most of us, however, if that’s our only postCOVID-19 complaint, we should count our blessings. Many COVID-19 “long-haulers” can’t climb a flight of stairs without having to pause to catch their breath and can no longer think well enough to hold a job. Still, I would like very much for my olfactory functions to return full strength. Aside from missing good smells and tastes, the inability to detect bad smells can be dangerous when smoke or another otherwise undetectable warning sign is present. Sadly, I suppose, medical science has not paid as much attention to olfactory functions as other processes. Olfaction, or smelling, begins with molecules traveling up your nose and reacting with nerve cells high up in nasal passages. The nerve cells send messages to a brain area just on the other side of the skull from the nose called the “olfactory bulb.” The bulb then sends messages to memory areas that identify “banana,” or “McDonald’s Quarter Pounder with Cheese,” or “stale bread.” Exactly where in this process COVID-19 causes damage is uncertain. One theory is that glamorously named “sustentacular” cells, which support the nerve cells, might be where the nasty coronaviruses hook their vicious little protein spikes in order to have their way with smell detectors before they communicate with the brain. I have doubts about the most-mentioned treatment for anosmia and its variants. That is, to take good strong whiffs of stuff you can smell for about 15 minutes a day. Just in case, I take deep sniffs of cinnamon, cloves, coffee and garlic a few times a day. It can’t hurt and people smarter than I am say it helps. I have decided when I can taste pistachio nuts, my sense of smell will have returned, and I will rejoice. Pistachios aren’t working yet, but other flavors reawaken briefly sometimes. I remain hopeful. I am half-vaccinated now, and I appreciate abilities I could easily have lost to COVID19 even more than I did before the coronavirus struck. ——— Steve Hansen writes about our life and times from his perspective of a semi-retired Tucumcari journalist.

Do Just One Thing
By Eco-Expert Danny Seo
Did you know that most houseplants thrive in an environment that’s at least 40% humidity? That level is higher than what’s found in the average home, but you can give your plants the environment they need without having to run humidifiers. The simplest way is to spray water from a misting bottle to saturate their leaves. You can also group plants together, which can create a small microclimate that increases the moisture levels in the space around them. Finally, fill a tray with pebbles and water and rest the potted plant on top; the water will offer a bit of humidity as it evaporates.

Dems’ views on filibuster have changed
O
n April 7, 2017, less than four years ago, a majority of Democrats in the U.S. Senate joined a majority of Republicans to sign a letter supporting the filibuster. The letter, to Senate leaders Mitch McConnell and Charles Schumer, began: “We are writing to urge you to support our efforts to preserve existing rules, practices and traditions as they pertain to the right of members to engage in extended debate on legislation before the United States Senate.” The senators continued: “We are united in our determination to preserve the ability of members to engage in extended debate when bills are sent to the floor.” The Senate plays a “unique role” in the legislative process, the senators said, and that role should continue unchanged. “Therefore, we are asking you to join us in opposing any effort to curtail the existing rights and prerogatives of senators to engage in full, robust and extended debate as we consider legislation before this body in the future,” the letter concluded. Thirty-three Democrats signed the letter — among them Sens. Chris Coons, Joe Manchin, Patrick Leahy, Mark Warner, Amy Klobuchar, Bob Casey, Jeanne Shaheen, Sherrod Brown, Dianne Feinstein, Kirsten Gillibrand, Cory Booker, Mazie Hirono, Joe
Byron York Syndicated Columnist Donnelly, Tim Kaine, Sheldon Whitehouse and Bob Menendez. Some of the 33 are now gone, but most remain in the Senate today. One of the filibuster supporters was then-Sen. Kamala Harris, now vice president of the United States. Remember that in April 2017, Democrats were in the minority in the Senate. It was not surprising that they wanted to defend minority rights. But 28 Republicans, a majority of the Senate GOP, also signed the letter, even though the president, Donald Trump, was of their own party and supported eliminating the filibuster. Both leaders, Republican Majority Leader McConnell and Democratic Minority Leader Schumer, opposed killing the filibuster. Now, much has changed. Nearly all Senate Democrats, including Schumer, want to kill the filibuster. Only two Democrats, Sens. Joe Manchin of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona, have publicly supported keeping it. Their supporters condemn the filibuster as rac-
ist, a “relic of Jim Crow.” It is unclear why so many Democrats would have supported a “relic of Jim Crow” so recently, but in any event, they have now experienced moral enlightenment and want to eliminate the procedure. Many Republicans, to their credit, hold the same position today, with a Democratic majority and a Democratic president, that they held a few years ago, with a Republican majority and a Republican president. McConnell is chief among them. And recently the now-minority leader delivered a devastating critique of the Democrats’ filibuster hypocrisy. McConnell pointed to pro-filibuster statements made by Schumer and the second-ranking Senate Democrat, Richard Durbin. They supported the filibuster when they were in the minority just a short time ago, but now, McConnell said, “under pressure from the outside, many of our Democratic colleagues are abandoning their stated principles as fast as possible.” Some Democrats are also pushing Manchin and Sinema to surrender. “The Senate Democrats who are pressuring our colleagues from Arizona and West Virginia to reverse themselves are not just arguing for some procedural tweak,” Mc C o n n e ll s a id . “T h e y are arguing for a radically less stable and less con-
sensus-driven system of government. Forget about enduring laws with broad support. Nothing in federal law would be settled.” Most of the coverage of McConnell’s speech focused on his threat to slow Senate work to a crawl and to pass, if the filibuster is eliminated and Republicans win a simple majority, bills on issues that are anathema to Democrats, like defunding Planned Parenthood and outlawing sanctuary cities and allowing concealed carry nationwide. If doing such things is possible with a simple majority, McConnell vowed, Republicans will do them the first moment they can. “This pendulum would swing both ways — hard,” McConnell said. But just as important for Republicans to note is the complete and utter hypocrisy of those Democrats who supported the filibuster a short time ago when Trump was president and Republicans controlled the Senate but now want to eliminate it when Joe Biden is president and Democrats (barely) control the Senate. What is unknown now is whether Manchin and Sinema, and perhaps some other currently silent Democratic senator, will save the party from itself. ——— Byron York is chief political correspondent for The Washington Examiner.

California lets union organizers ‘raid farms’
B
efore dawn, dozens of union activists invaded a strawberry farm, shouting through bullhorns. This frightened workers and infuriated the farm’s owner, Mike Fahner, who thought that in America, owning property means you have a right to control access to that property — your home is your castle, and all that. Not in California, where politicians allow union organizers to raid farms. “If I didn’t allow them, I’m the one going to jail,” says an outraged Fahner in my new video. “That is asinine.” The property invasion law’s supporters say the United Farm Workers union deserves the exception to property rules because rich farmers abuse migrant workers. I threw their argument at Fahner, who replied that it’s absurd to say he abuses workers, because they keep coming back: “450 people travel 400 miles. ... Why in the world, if they were being abused, would they continue to return year after year?” Because they don’t know they have other options, says the union. They also don’t know about their right to union-

Stossel Syndicated Columnist ize, so unions must come onto farms to tell them about union benefits. The union’s predawn farm invasion didn’t win over many of Fahner’s employees. Fewer than 10% joined the union. Fahner already pays almost double California’s minimum wage. But the protests themselves impose a cost. He only has six weeks to harvest, pack, ship and process his strawberry plants. “If we miss that window, you destroy the fields.” In response to the farmers’ complaints, California Deputy Attorney General Matthew Wise claimed, “Any access to the property is brief, unobtrusive ...” But the law allows union organizers to enter a farm three hours a day, up to 120 days a year. That’s hardly “brief” or “unobtrusive.” This week, Fahner and another business, Fowler Packing, challenged the
law at the Supreme Court. I hope the Court sends a strong message to California’s union-owned politicians: Get off people’s private property! In earlier court battles, Wise said the exception to private property rules is justified because “workers remain isolated ... from the flow of information that is characteristic of modern society.” But that’s not true. Maybe it was true in 1975 when the law passed, but now there’s the internet. And cellphones. “Every person has a cellphone in their pocket,” says Fahner “All have phones?” I ask. “Yes,” Fahner replies. “They know how to communicate through Facebook and through Twitter, much better than most!” Even if they didn’t, the union could always approach workers after work at their motels. “All those union people had access to (the motel rooms). They could knock on their door and talk to them about their agenda.” Plus, the union has two radio stations. But it’s much more fun to intimidate businesses with predawn protests. California officials now argue that this Supreme Court case “threatens
... public health.” Leftist media like Vox quickly agrees, claiming that denying access to farms “could endanger government functions like fire inspection and workplace safety.” But that’s not true, says Fahner’s pro-bono attorney from the Pacific Legal Foundation, Joshua Thompson. He points out that “Those types of routine government inspections are searching in a reasonable manner. What happened here is the government is taking our property ... just giving that to a third party to come on to proselytize. To use bullhorns to intimidate.” I asked the United Farm Workers union for their side of the story. They didn’t respond. So, in my video, Fahner gets the last word. He uses it well, saying, “This is trespassing. You should be going to jail for doing this.” ——— John Stossel is author of “Give Me a Break: How I Exposed Hucksters, Cheats, and Scam Artists and Became the Scourge of the Liberal Media.” The views expressed in this column are those of the author.

Tragedy strikes the Apollo Program
W
ith the end to Peggy the Gemini ProBohlin gram, NASA was ready to start the Space Bytes Apollo Program to put men on the moon. The United States was prepared to win the Space Race against the USSR. The first manned mission was Apollo 1. The Apollo missions would have three astronauts involved. The three astronauts chosen for this first flight were Virgil “Gus” Grissom, commander; Edward H. White II, senior pilot; and Roger B. Chaffee, pilot. Gus Grissom was born on April 3, 1926 in Mitchell, Indiana. He graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. Grissom joined the Air Force and flew as a combat fighter pilot in the Korean War. After the war, he was a flight instructor and test pilot. Grissom became the second American astronaut to fly into space for the Mercury-Redstone 4 mission on July 21, 1961, aboard the Liberty Bell capsule. He also flew in the first crewed Gemini flight, Gemini 3, on March 23, 1965. Apollo 1 was going to be his third mission. Edward White was born on Nov. 14, 1930 in San Antonio, Texas. He graduated from West Point with a Bachelor of Science degree. He joined the Air Force and flew fighter jets in Germany. After his time abroad, he earned a Master of Science degree in Aeronautical Engineering from the University of Michigan. Edward White was the pilot for Gemini 4 from June 3-7, 1975 and was the first American to perform a spacewalk. Apollo 1 was going to be his second mission. Roger Chaffee was born on Feb. 15, 1935 in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Aeronautical Engineering. He joined the Navy and served as a safety officer and quality control officer. Apollo 1 was going to be Roger Chaffee’s first mission. Grissom, White, and Chaffee trained many hours for the Apollo 1 mission. It was scheduled to launch on Feb. 21, 1967 on top of a Saturn 1B rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida. On Jan. 27, 1967 Grissom, White, and Chaffee were conducting a simulation preflight test of Apollo 1 inside the command module, which was sitting on top of the Saturn 1B rocket on the launch pad when a flash fire broke out. The fire was caused by faulty wiring and flammable materials inside the oxygen-rich environment of the capsule. It spread quickly due to the conditions. The astronauts were unable to escape since they could not open the capsule from the inside. All three men perished in the fire. Grissom and Chaffee were buried at Arlington National Cemetery, Washington, D.C. White was buried at the U.S. Military Academy, West Point, New York. There was an intense investigation afterwards. Many people from NASA and NAA lost their jobs. There were over 100 changes, including a quick-opening hatch, that were recommended to ensure that the future Apollo missions were much safer. Due to the tragic deaths of Grissom, Chaffee and White, the next Apollo manned mission would not be launched for over a year and a half. The hope of putting man on the Moon by the end of the century looked bleak. Would the United States and NASA be able to accomplish this task on time? ——— Peggy Bohlin is a retired teacher from Roswell and serves as the STEM instructor for the Roswell Public Library.

Recalling childhood frustrations
T
hat is a novel concept isn’t it? Frustrations — we all have them. Life, finances, or even what to make for supper. I just started thinking of my childhood frustrations. I remember being harassed by my cousins because I wore my skate key on a chain around my neck. Don’t you remember, those skates didn’t fit — couldn’t take them off without that skate key. My cousins wore jeans, so had pockets to put that skate key in. I wore shorts or pedal pushers and there were no pockets. But my cousins’ parents were buying new skate keys bi-weekly. I had my skate key until I had to get new skates because of course, my feet grew. My frustration was my cousins gloating that I had a chain. Oh well, I think I fared better than them. My grandma never bought replacement skate keys. I always wanted to collect baseball cards. That was not acceptable when I was a kid, girls didn’t do baseball cards. My cousins would buy those Topps baseball cards with the gum. That was the nastiest tasting gum. At the store, grandma would buy some of them every time. My cousins were excited about them when they visited. I always asked for the extra cards — you know those cards you already have, then
Gena Sterling Generations got another one. Well, no, they kept for trades. Oh well, I never got to get a trading card. Do you remember the long jumping ropes? The ones at school that were 10 or 12 feet long, maybe more. I was good at doing the fast turns. But slow turns were hard for me. I could do the jumping with one or two ropes, even two people jumping. I just didn’t jump well with the slow turns. I tried hard to get good at it. That just wasn’t in the ropes for me. What was your favorite candy at the swimming pool? I always had trouble figuring out which one I wanted. I didn’t like the new Willy Wonka candy. I feel the same about Harry Potter candy too. I liked the chicken sticks, we called them. I have found them in the mini sizes at a dollar store, one time. But they just stick in my teeth now. I love 5th Avenues — sadly, no almonds on top now. But chocolate in the summer in the heat, no, I usually got something that wouldn’t melt. Most of the time didn’t buy anything. Grandma would ask me why I brought my money home. I didn’t want
anything. I miss those days, swimming and getting sunburned. Splashing with my friends and jumping off the diving boards. I wish those times were back. So, did you master the Jacob’s ladder on the playground? I could do cat’s cradle, a jumble of stuff, but not Jacob’s ladder. I remember asking my grandma for colored string to make the designs with. I had it sometimes, I really liked the pink string. We didn’t wear it around our necks though. That round string was good for some idiot to pull it and almost choke you. I wonder if anyone else jumped the chain? I got into so much trouble about that. One teacher banned me from the swing sets in second grade. It was funny, someone else would do it too. She would get so mad about that. The adults seemed to deem that to be dangerous. I think it was a rite of childhood to do something dangerous in a safer setting. I still love to swing, but I don’t jump the chain. Coloring — do you like to color? I don’t. My aunt ruined that one. She had been an art major. She said I had to shade it and whatever. I was the kid that colored the whole page in one color and was done. I even negotiated with a teacher in high school to take a quiz

instead of coloring a map for a certain A grade. I hate coloring. Adult coloring books and apps on your phone are not appealing to me. My childhood was not favorable to coloring. But my kids liked it, I just don’t have the patience or the gift. My daughter does, just like her paternal grandmother. Lastly, what were your favorite models to put together? I had cousins that did cars. I wasn’t into cars. I liked ships and boats. I would sit out underneath the apple tree at the picnic table. I had my pieces, my plans and my glue. I would work all day on the ships; I think USS Constitution, an aircraft carrier, was my favorite ship I made. The Nimitz, a super carrier, was so cool. Nimitz was from the San Antonio area. He was a major player in World War II in the Navy. It was cool to research him and put together that aircraft carrier. Note that now there are Nimitz class carriers. ——— Gena Sterling was born and raised in Texas. Gena also lived in Oklahoma, where she met her husband.

Masks and gloves are saving lives — and causing pollution By Haven Daley The Associated Press PACIFICA, Calif. — Disposable masks, gloves and other types of personal protective equipment are safeguarding untold lives during the coronavirus pandemic. They’re also creating a worldwide pollution problem, littering streets and sending an influx of harmful plastic and other waste into landfills, sewage systems and oceans. In Northern California, environmental groups are tracking the issue along the coast — and trying to do something about it. The Pacific Beach Coalition recently noticed a dramatic increase in discarded PPE on beaches in and around the city of Pacifica, south of San Francisco, where it’s been doing monthly cleanups for nearly 25 years. Volunteers record what they pick up to gauge what might end up in the ocean. Until 2020, the litter was mostly cigarette butts and food wrappers. “What are we going to do? We got masks. We got gloves. We got all those hand wipes, the sani wipes.

Pacifica Beach Coalition volunteers Iona Pratt-Bauman, from left, Anneliese Phillips, Sophia Woehl and Amaelia Bringas, all 16, pick up trash off Sharp Park Beach in Pacifica, Calif. on March 17. They’re everywhere. They’re in my neighborhood, in my streets. What can we do?” asked Lynn Adams, the coalition’s president. The group and others are calling attention to the issue, saying what’s
recorded is likely only a fraction of the personal protective equipment hitting beaches and oceans. Larger mammals can ingest PPE, and plastic from the items can disrupt the ocean’s food chains.
“They’re all made of plastic,” Adams said. A report last year by the advocacy group OceansAsia found nearly 1.6 billion masks would flood oceans in 2020 alone, based on global pro-
duction estimates and other factors. OceansAsia said masks could take as long as 450 years to break down. The Marine Mammal Center, a conservation group that rescues and rehabilitates mammals, conducts research and provides education, said animals can get trapped in discarded PPE, or mistake it for food. “Obviously, PPE is critical right now, but we know that with increased amounts of plastic and a lot of this stuff getting out into the ocean, it can be a really big threat to marine mammals and all marine life,” said the center’s conservation educator, Adam Ratner. One small thing Ratner suggests is cutting the loops before discarding a mask, which can help prevent animals from getting tangled in them. Sophia Woehl was among those volunteering in the cleanup at a beach in Pacifica last week. “We want to keep ourselves safe, but we also want to keep the rest of the environment safe, too, and we’re not doing that right now with just leaving them on the ground,” she said.

Betty Sims-Solt Betty Sims-Solt was born and raised on the family ranch near Pastura, NM in 1935. Her parents, George Edgar Sims and Wahlecia Dell Blackwell Sims had five older sons before Betty arrived. Her five older brothers showed her the “ropes” of rodeo, and began entering into competitions by the year of 1950. By 1954, she managed to win and place in multiple NM State rodeos, leading her to the opportunity to compete in the High School National Finals in Louisiana, Montana, South Dakota and Texas where she also placed in several events. Betty went on to attend college New Mexico A&M, (now known as NMSU) where she ended up winning the NIRA National AllAround cowgirl title in 1957, along with the National Barrel Racing Championship in 195758. She also joined the Girls Rodeo Association (now known as the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association) along with the South-
Obituaries
west Rodeo Association, winning the Barrel Racing title in 1958. She was a busy and ambitious woman, even helping to start the NIRA Alumni Association. In college she earned a degree in Animal Husbandry, along with her teaching certificate that allowed her to teach for 33 years in the Roswell Public schools. Every now and then Betty would teach her classes how to rodeo. Everyone, including the other teacher were always so intrigued. After she retired, she decided to get the saddle back out and buy a small ranch North of Roswell where she ran a Cow-calf operation alongside her brother. Betty was also quite creative, as she wrote and performed cowboy poetry that has been published. In 1990, she was inducted into the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame in Ft. Worth and Las Cruces where you can still see her ranch symbol, and in 2003 she received the National Cowboy Culture Pioneer Woman Award. Betty had one daughter, Georgia Solt Perry and two grandchildren Ethan Wayne Perry and Genna Wahlecia Perry. No services will be held at this time. The family will have a private service at a later date. Please take a moment to share a kind thought or memory with Betty’s family at www.andersonbethany.com.

Charles Lewis, former DC chief at AP and Hearst, dies at 80 WASHINGTON (AP) — Charles Lewis, a former Washington bureau chief for The Associated Press and The Hearst Newspapers who tirelessly advocated for the release of AP journalist Terry Anderson from kidnappers in Lebanon, died Saturday. He was 80. Lewis, of Arlington, Virginia, died at a hospital from complications from cancer. He had been fighting a series of illnesses the last several years, according to his wife, Vivian Chen. Open and friendly as a newsman, but tough and by the book in his personnel duties, Lewis was a journalist for four decades. He became known for his dedication to Anderson’s release even when it meant walking a fine line at times. He had been AP’s bureau chief in Washington for a year when Anderson, the news organization’s chief Middle East correspondent, was abducted from the streets of Beirut in 1985 in the midst of the country’s civil war, thrusting Lewis in the middle of often tense and sensitive U.S. efforts to get Anderson released. As part of an effort to help Anderson and other Western hostages believed to be held in Lebanon, Lewis sought help from the White House, which directed him to Lt. Col. Oliver North, the White House aide who was the point man on the hostage negotiations. Lewis campaigned internationally with Anderson’s sister, Peggy Say, with AP support to seek Anderson’s freedom, including several meetings with North. That stirred complaints from two AP Washington
reporters who later said they felt Lewis held them back on their early reporting on North’s shadowy contacts with Nicaraguan contras. Anderson was finally released in 1991. “It was complicated, because of the arms-for-hostages story,” said Walter Mears on Sunday, who was executive editor of the AP at the time. “He played it the only way he could.” Lewis later came to acknowledge that his handful of meetings with North as the reports of the aide’s clandestine activities became known was “a pretty hairy experience.” “I never felt all that comfortable,” he told The New York Times in 1990, after leaving the AP to become Hearst’s Washington bureau chief. “I think that the AP will look back on this period as one of great internal frustration. It has been a balancing act, wearing different hats at different times, and I know it lends itself to perception problems. Still, the bottom line is that journalism didn’t suffer one bit.” Lou Boccardi, AP’s president at the time, praised Lewis for his steady leadership. “Many people throughout the AP shared in the agony of Terry Anderson’s ordeal and Chuck stood out among them for his unrelenting dedication to the cause of finding some contact, some channel that might hold a key to Terry’s freedom,” Boccardi said in an email. “He was tireless, even as he shouldered the heavy responsibility of running our Washington bureau.”

‘Virginia Woolf,’ ‘Goldbergs’ star George Segal dies at 87
By Andrew Dalton AP Entertainment Writer
LOS ANGELES — George Segal, the banjo player turned actor who was nominated for an Oscar for 1966’s “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” and worked into his late 80s on the ABC sitcom “The Goldbergs,” died Tuesday in Santa Rosa, California, his wife said. “The family is devastated to announce that this morning George Segal passed away due to complications from bypass surgery,” Sonia Segal said in a statement. He was 87. George Segal was always best known as a comic actor, becoming one of the screen’s biggest stars in the 1970s when lighthearted adult comedies thrived. But his most famous role was in a harrowing drama, “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?”, based on Edward Albee’s acclaimed play. He was the last surviving credited member of the tiny cast, all four of whom were nominated for Academy Awards: Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton for starring roles, Sandy Dennis and Segal for supporting performances. The women won Oscars, the men did not. To younger audiences, he was better known for playing magazine publisher Jack Gallo on the long-running NBC series “Just Shoot Me” from 1997 to 2003, and as grandfather Albert “Pops” Solomon on the “The Goldbergs” since 2013. “Today we lost a legend. It was a true honor being a small part of George Segal’s amazing legacy,” said “Goldbergs” creator Adam Goldberg, who based the show on his 1980s childhood. “By pure fate, I ended up casting the perfect person to play Pops. Just like my grandfather, George was a kid at heart with a magical spark.” In his Hollywood prime, he played a stuffy intellectual opposite Barbra Streisand’s freewheeling prostitute in 1970’s “The Owl and the Pussycat;” a cheating husband opposite Glenda Jackson in 1973’s “A Touch of Class;” a hopeless gambler opposite Elliot Gould in director Robert Altman’s 1974

Actor George Segal arrives at the AFI Lifetime Achievement Awards honoring Mike Nichols on June 10, 2010 in Culver City, Calif. “California Split;” and a bank-robbing suburbanite opposite Jane Fonda in 1977’s “Fun with Dick and Jane.” Groomed to be a handsome leading man, Segal’s profile had been rising steadily since his first movie, 1961’s “The Young Doctors” in which he had ninth billing. His first starring performance came in “King Rat” as a nefarious inmate at a Japanese prison camp during World War II. In “Virginia Woolf,” he played Nick, one half of a young couple invited over for drinks and to witness the bitterness and frustration of a middle-aged couple. Director Mike Nichols needed someone who would get the approval of star Elizabeth Taylor, and turned to Segal when Robert Redford turned him down. According to Nichols’ biographer Mark Harris, the director said Segal was “close enough to the young god he needed to be for Elizabeth, and witty enough and funny enough to deal with all that humiliation.” He rode the film to a long run of stardom. Then in the late 1970s, “Jaws” and other action films changed the nature of Hollywood movies, and the
light comedies that Segal excelled in became passe. “Then I got a little older,” he said in a 1998 interview. “I started playing urban father roles. And that guy sort of turned into Chevy Chase, and after that there was really no place to go.” Except for the 1989 hit “Look Who’s Talking,” Segal’s films in the 1980s and 1990s were lackluster. He turned to television and starred in two failed series, “Take Five” and “Murphy’s Law.” Then he found success in 1997 with the David Spade sitcom “Just Shoot Me” in which he played Gallo, who despite his gruff manner hires his daughter (Laura San Giacomo) and keeps Spade’s worthless office boy character on his payroll simply out of a sense of affection for both. Series co-star Brian Posehn was one of many paying Segal tribute Tuesday night. “I grew up watching him, total old school charm, effortless comedic timing,” Segal’s “Just Shoot Me” Posehn said. “Doing scenes with him was one of the highlights of my life, but getting to know him a little and making the legend laugh was even cooler.” Throughout his long
acting career, Segal played the banjo for fun, becoming quite accomplished on the instrument he had first picked up as a boy. He performed with his own Beverly Hills Unlisted Jazz Band. Born in 1934 in Great Neck, New York, the third son of a malt and hops dealer, Segal began entertaining at the age of 8, performing magic tricks for neighborhood children. He attended a Quaker boarding school in Pennsylvania and as an undergraduate at Columbia University organized “Bruno Linch and His Imperial Band,” for which he also played banjo. After graduating Segal worked non-salary at the New York theater Circle in the Square, doing everything from ticket taking to understudy acting. He studied drama with Lee Strasberg and Uta Hagen, and made his first professional acting appearance off-Broadway in Moliere’s “Don Juan.” It lasted one night. After a stint on Broadway in Eugene O’Neill’s “The Iceman Cometh,” he was drafted into the Army. Discharged in 1957, he returned to the stage and would begin getting small film roles. In 1956 Segal married television story editor Marion Sobel and they had two daughters, Elizabeth and Polly, before divorcing in 1981. He married his second wife, Linda Rogoff, in London in 1982 and was devastated when she died of a stomach disease 14 years later. “It was a time when I said, `It’s not adding up; I don’t get it anymore,” he recalled to an interviewer in 1999. “With Linda dying, I lost interest in everything. I worked just to make a living. Acting, like life, became a joyless job.” Eventually he reconnected with Sonia Schultz Greenbaum, who had been his girlfriend in high school some 45 years earlier. They talked on the telephone, sometimes as long as six hours, and were married just a few months after reuniting. “She helped me through the worst days of my life just listening to me unload,” Seagal said in 1999. “It was magic.”
Boylan, Rutgers radio voice, former hoops coach, dies PISCATAWAY, N.J. (AP) — Joe Boylan, a popular radio voice for Rutgers basketball and a former coach when the team made its only Final Four appearance nearly a half-century ago, has died. He was 82. Rutgers announced his death on Monday. Boylan had a stroke on Wednesday and died Sunday, the day the Scarlet Knights lost to Houston and ended their first NCAA Tournament in 30 years. “One of the nicest people I’ve ever met,” said current coach Steve Pikiell, who called Boylan “our beloved radio guy.” “He traveled with us for the last five years and was the voice of Rutgers basketball. He will be really missed. He was one of the greatest people that I’ve been around. He was a special person.” Boylan was in the sixth season of his second stint as the men’s color analyst for the Rutgers Sports Network. He previously served as

Boylan also was an assistant athletic director as well as the program’s radio analyst from 1985-91. Prior to returning to Rutgers, the Baltimore
native served as athletic director for Loyola of Maryland for 19 years, retiring in 2010. “Everyone Joe met became his friend. He remembered people and knew their families, and he always went out of his way to say hello to everyone,” Loyola president Rev. Brian F. Linnane said. “He was a real gentle-
man, and he would be there for you. He always gave good advice — and, as president, I relied on him for that advice,” Linnane said. Boylan attended Lafayette and played basketball and soccer. Boylan is survived by his wife, Molly; daughter Heather; son-in-law Dave Wojcik; and grandson Jake.

Andrea Moore, Roswell Chamber of Commerce executive director, said Wednesday afternoon she didn’t know of any businesses in town that would open specifically because of the move to the Green Level. “It might take a day or two for everybody to get the information,” Moore said of those businesses that can now open. Attempts to contact the management of Apex Cinema, 900 W. Hobbs, and Galaxy 8, 4501 N. Main, were not successful by press time. Moore noted several more restaurants that have been closed planned to reopen in early April. Those include Cattle Baron, 1113 N. Main; Farley’s, 1315 N. Main; and Golden Corral, 2624 N. Main. Peppers Grill and Bar, 500 N. Main, recently opened. In all, 17 counties advanced to a less restrictive level in Wednesday’s update.

State examining changes for Red to Green risk assessment
By Juno Ogle Roswell Daily Record
As New Mexico’s COVID-19 cases decrease and vaccinations increase, state health officials are considering changes to its risk assessment system. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now recommends that only people who have symptoms of COVID-19 get tested for the disease. That, combined with lower case counts and more vaccinations, could actually mean test positivity rates will increase, Dr. David Scrase, New Mexico secretary of Human Services, said in a livestreamed press conference Wednesday. “We think in the next two to four weeks that will become a real phenomenon, and we don’t want to start penalizing counties as that test positivity rate moves up,” he said. Scrase said a study in the state last fall showed that among people with COVID-19 symptoms who were tested, the positivity rate was 16%, while among those who were No counties went to a more restrictive level, and no counties are in the Red Level in the latest assessment. Thirteen
asymptomatic it was 4.9%. Test positivity is one of the two gating criteria the state uses in its Red to Green risk assessment system. Scrase said state officials are still determining what metrics to use but will likely announce a new system soon. “I think we should have something in the next two to four weeks to revisit that in a way that will no longer have test positivity be a critical factor,” he said. Some changes have already been made to the Red to Green system so counties with small populations won’t move back and forth between levels with only small case counts. For example, in Harding County, with a population of 657 people, just one case in a two-week period would adjust to eight cases per 100,000 people, Scrase said. That would have put the county in the Red Level in this week’s assessment. The state will apply an interim “fix” in calculating the risk assessment for seven counties with fewer

than 6,250 people — Harding, De Baca, Catron, Union, Hidalgo, Guadalupe and Mora — until a new system is in place, Scrase said. Secretary of the Department of Health Dr. Tracie Collins gave an update on vaccination efforts in the state. While the state is still giving priority to health care workers, everyone 75 and older, and those 60 and older with a chronic health condition, Collins said the state is making plans to open Phase 2, which is essentially all New Mexicans age 16 and older, in mid April. Two out of every five New Mexicans 16 or older have received at least one dose of vaccine and nearly one in four are fully vaccinated, Collins said. In Chaves County, 28% of the population 16 or older has had at least one dose and 16% are fully vaccinated, according to the NMDOH vaccination dashboard. In its daily case update Wednesday, the health department reported 218 new cases of COVID-19 in 23 counties, with three new cases
periods. Ten counties are in the Green Level and the remaining 10 are in the Yellow Level.
in Chaves County. The total number of cases in the state is now 190,275, with 91% of those considered recovered. The Chaves County total has been adjusted for two cases determined to be duplicated reports, according to Wednesday’s press release. That total is now 8,708, with 96% considered recovered. No local deaths related to COVID-19 were among the six reported Wednesday. San Juan County reported three deaths with Bernalillo, Doña Ana and Sandoval counties each reporting one. The total number of deaths in the state is 3,909. The number of hospitalizations in the state was not available due to a disruption in reporting, according to the press release.

2010: Rockets roll past Coyotes, 42-0
In anticipation of Friday night’s big game between the Rockets and Coyotes, RDR Sports is taking a look back this week at some of each team’s memorable victories over their crosstown rivals. In 2010, Goddard lived up to their motto “Taking Care of Business” as they manhandled the Coyotes for their 10th consecutive win over Roswell. Goddard running back David Anaya racked up 153 rushing yards against the Coyotes’ defense. Goddard’s win gave them a 9-0 record. Roswell ended their season with a winning record. Below is the story of the Rockets’ 2010 victory. E d i t o r ’ s n o t e : This story first ran in the Oct. 30, 2010 edition of the Roswell Daily Record. They ran, they passed and they scored on defense. The Goddard Rockets essentially did it all on Friday night, including beating crosstown rival Roswell for the 10th straight time. Goddard ran for 311 yards, passed for 117 yards and scored 21 points in each half to cruise to a 42-0 win over the Coyotes in front of a Wool Bowl that was filled to nearly 90 percent capacity. “I have no explanation for it,” said Goddard
senior Said Fuentes, who goes out of the rivalry with a perfect 4-0 mark against Roswell in his high-school career. “It feels good for me and my other fellow seniors. “It feels good, it means a lot for us to beat them.” While Fuentes said it feels good to beat Roswell, he, along with fellow senior Dustin Levario, still looked at the game from a “taking care of business” perspective. “It’s just another game. I want to get to that game,” Levario said, talking about the state championship, where Goddard is hoping to get for the fifth straight season. The win moved Goddard within one win of the program’s first undefeated regular season, but both Fuentes and Levario said that getting to 9-0 just means they’re one game closer to their ultimate goal. “It means we’re doing a pretty good job,” Levario said about what it meant to get to 9-0. “Nine wins, that’s all it means, is nine wins,” said Fuentes. “One more week to go, that’s all it means.” Getting that ninth win or beating Roswell for the 18th time in school history was never really in doubt on Friday. The Rockets (9-0, 2-0 District 4-4A) scored on their first possession on a 3-yard run by David Anaya with 6:51 left in the first. They punted on their
next possession, but on the first play of Roswell’s ensuing possession, David Strickland scooped up a botched Coyote pitch and went 37 yards for a score to make it 14-0. Another Coyote fumble on the second play of the next drive then led to another Goddard score and a 21-0 Rocket lead. Bishop Whiteside recovered the Kevin Kelly fumble and, seven plays later, Greene was diving into the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown with 9:04 left in the second quarter. To that point, Roswell never advanced past the 50 and already had two turnovers. The turnovers, according to Coyote coach Robert Arreola, is what took his team out of the game. “That’s something we talked all week long about,” the third-year coach said. “We have got to take care of the ball. Any time you’re playing a team like Goddard, they’ll make you pay for it. “And it showed that they did. Every mistake we made, they capitalized on it. You can’t do that against good teams and Goddard is a good team.” Roswell got into Goddard territory on the next drive following Greene’s TD run, but a fourth-down pass from James Singleton to Richard Medrano fell incomplete to end the threat at the Rocket 26. Roswell would never

2019: Coyotes repeat as district champs, 24-14
In anticipation of Friday night’s big game between the Coyotes and Rockets, RDR Sports is taking a look back this week at some of each team’s memorable victories over their crosstown rivals. This game wasn’t the beauty that the 2018 game was. It was a street fight marred by flags. It would take everything both teams had to make it to the end of the game. With 20 flags thrown in the game, it became a game in which the team that made the fewest mistakes would win. Roswell senior Joel Sanchez kicked a field goal to give the Coyotes a district title and help coach Jeff Lynn claim his first undefeated regular season. The team would stay undefeated and go on to defeat Los Lunas 25-19 for their second consecutive title. Here is the story of that pivotal 2019 contest. Editor’s note: This story first ran in the Nov. 2, 2019 edition of the Roswell Daily Record. This wasn’t a game for the faint of heart, and in the end, it is what got Roswell through to their second district title — and first undefeated championship — in the Jeff Lynn era. This game was not a beauty like last year’s game, it was marred by flag-fest. There were enough
flags thrown in the game for the referees to open a flag shop. It seemed like the referees broke the first rule of officiating when they interjected themselves into the game for both teams. There were over 20 flags thrown on Goddard and over 12 on Roswell. Neither team could find a rhythm and there were long delays in the action without explanations. One of the longest pauses in the action was when Goddard coach Chris White came out onto the field and was arguing with an official for over 10 minutes. In the end, the referee picked up the flag — it was not enough to stop Roswell, as they defeated Goddard, 24-14, Friday night at the Wool Bowl. “It was a really good win,” Roswell coach Jeff Lynn said. “I really thought our defensive coaches went in at halftime and made a couple of tweaks and did a good job. Give our defensive coaches credit, they tweaked a few things and it made a difference in the second half.” The game was hard-hitting, and there was a similarity to last year’s game when Roswell forced a turnover on downs and drove the length of the field. With a fourth down and nine yards to go at the Rockets 20-yard line, Roswell coach Jeff Lynn called a timeout and sent in Joel “Mr. Everything” Sanchez and he nailed a 31-yard field goal to put the Coy-
otes up 24-14 with 2:15 to play in the game. Goddard received the ball back at the 35-yard line and was moving the ball, but ended up throwing an interception to Armando Silva with 44 seconds left in the game. Once again, Roswell added a little something-something to their team’s uniforms, as they wrapped their helmets. ‘We are always going to do something special this game, every year,” Lynn said. “I want to send a shout-out to Pilar Carrasco for wrapping our helmets.” Roswell looked like they were going to run away with the game when they came out and took the opening kickoff downfield, and Joel Renteria scored on a 2-yard touchdown run with Sanchez adding the PAT with 8:46 in the first quarter. Goddard scored when Rion Lee ran a 35-yard toss sweep in the second quarter for a TD with 10:24. Goddard went for two points but was unsuccessful to make the score Roswell 7-6. In the second half, Roswell went for an onside kick, but it was recovered by Goddard. Goddard recovered the ball at their 48-yard line. On the next play they fumbled the ball as the Coyotes recovered at Roswell’s 42-yard line. Roswell used that to drive the to the Rockets’

two-yard line before Sanchez scored and added the PAT to give Roswell a 14-6 lead with 8:02 in the third quarter. “I thought we had a good kick,” Lynn said. “It didn’t bounce our way, but right after that we got that turnover.” Goddard wasn’t done as they were aided by a flag to keep their drive alive. On the next play Goddard quarterback Robert Aragon rolled out on fourth and goal from the 6-yard line. He would dive in for the score and Sammy Zaragoza ran up the middle for the two-point conversion to tie the game at 14-14 with 1:24 in the third quarter. Roswell came into the game ranked No. 1 and the showdown with No. 2-ranked Goddard was not what the fans expected. The one thing that has made Roswell a special team this season from the very first game is: whenever they have been challenged by another team they have immediately come back
and scored. Friday night was no different — after Goddard scored Roswell drove the field with a heavy dose of running on the legs of Renteria, and a lot of Reese, who ran up the middle and on a couple of jet sweeps. Reese scored on a 4-yard sweep with Sanchez adding the PAT to make the score 21-14 with 11:23 to play in the game. For coach Lynn this is his first undefeated regular season crown — undefeated in the district in his seventh year. Roswell will have the No. 1 seed throughout the playoffs and earn a bye next week. This is the fifth consecutive win for Lynn over Goddard. “This is the first time we’ve been a 3-0 district champ,” Lynn said. “We’re moving into the playoffs and it’s do or die. We’re going to celebrate this and take a couple of days off and heal up a little bit. We’ll hit the weight room Monday and start to regain our focus for the playoff run.” Brackets are expected to be announced this weekend. Roswell has earned the No. 1 seed throughout.

get any deeper into Rocket territory the rest of the night. In fact, Roswell crossed the 50 just two more times in the game. Goddard scored on its first possession of the second half with a 49-yard drive that started after
Roswell tried an onside kick coming out of halftime. Roswell appeared to recover the onside try, but it was ruled that a Coyote touched the ball before it went the mandatory 10 yards. The Rockets scored seven plays later on a 9-yard pass from Greene to Brandon Youngblood — who had two catches
for 38 yards — to make it 28-0. Roswell (5-4, 0-1) committed its third turnover on the night on the next possession when Greene picked off a Singleton pass. Anaya scored on the ensuing play with a 32-yard run to make it 35-0. Greene added the final Rocket TD on an 8-yard
The Lady Bears pulled away in the second half when Ruffridge had 17 of her points. Franklin finished with 11 points and 11 rebounds. Angel Baker and Shamarre Hale each had 10 points for the 13th-seeded Raiders (19-8), who got outscored 40-20 after halftime and outrebounded 47-31 overall. They had gotten their first-ever NCAA Tournament victory in the opening round against Arkansas on Monday. “Today was tough obviously. We didn’t make the shots that we thought that we would,” Wright State coach Katrina Merriweather said. “Credit Missouri State with their game plan, their defense. Never did I imagine that this group would get outrebounded the way that we did. So there’s a lot of things when you look at that stat sheet, it’s difficult to comprehend.” Agugua-Hamilton succeeded Kellie Harper, who after coaching the Lady Bears’ 2019 Sweet 16 team was hired by Tennessee, her alma mater. Missouri State then went 26-4 in Agugua-Hamilton’s debut
last season before the NCAA tourney was canceled because of the pandemic. Missouri State went ahead on two tiebreaking free throws by Missouri Valley Conference player of the year Brice Calip with 2 minutes left in the second quarter before Mya Bhinhar swished a 3-pointer for a 24-19 halftime lead. Sydney Manning’s 3-pointer capped a 12-3 run to start the second half. That trio was also on the last Sweet 16 team. After opening this tournament with a 21-point win over UC Davis, another mid-major, Missouri State now has to play the Cardinal, the No. 1 overall seed in this NCAA Tournament. Stanford beat the then-No. 11 seed Lady Bears 55-46 in the Sweet 16 two years ago. Wright State got even at 19-all Wednesday when Emani Jefferson made a 3-pointer that hit the rim, popped straight up and then fell through the net with 3:44 left in the half. The Raiders didn’t get any more breaks after that. “They had great execution, great patience. I think they controlled the tempo
run with 9:26 left in the game and finished with 68 yards on 11 carries. The junior also completed 10 of 13 passes for 117 yards. Anaya led Goddard with 153 yards on 20 rushes. Goddard held Roswell to 126 total yards on the night. Kelly had 17 carries for 58 yards to lead the Coyotes.
Sweet 16 again for Missouri St. women, 64-39 over Wright St.
By Stephen Hawkins AP Sports Writer
SAN ANTONIO — Another sweet season for Elle Ruffridge and Missouri State. Ruffridge had a careerhigh 20 points with five 3-pointers, Jasmine Franklin had a double-double and the fifth-seeded Lady Bears are going to their second consecutive Sweet 16 in the women’s NCAA Tournament after knocking off Wright State 64-39 in matchup of mid-major teams Wednesday. “It feels amazing. I cannot tell you how much I love this team,” Ruffridge said. “We have been waiting since 2019 to punch our ticket back. I’m just speechless right now.” Ruffridge and Franklin are among nine current Missouri State players who were also part of the Sweet 16 team two years ago, though they have a different coach. The Lady Bears (23-2) lost in 2019 to Stanford, the same team they will play in the Alamo Region semifinal Sunday. “We’re going to enjoy this one. Making it to the Sweet 16 is not easy,” second-year Missouri State coach Amaka Agugua-Hamilton said. “There’s so many teams that would love to be in this position. We are not taking that for granted at all. So we’re going to enjoy this. We’re going to enjoy each other. That’s what we do, we enjoy the journey. Obviously, we’re going to be prepared.”
of the game,” Merriweather said. “They just played an amazing 40 minutes, even with the slow start that I feel like we both had. Containing them would mean we could not be a step slow like we were today.”
Baker slowed
Baker had averaged 25.6 points in four postseason games for the Horizon League champions before Wednesday. Her 3-pointer with 29.1 seconds left put Wright State ahead of Arkansas. Baker was averaging 18.4 points on the season, but was 3-for-14 while mostly defended by Calip. “Brice is just a lock-down defender. Brice did things that may not have shown up in a stat line, but she was huge for us. Big stops, limiting Angel under average,” Ruffridge said.

Oakland launches guaranteed pay plan for low-income people By Adam Beam The Associated Press SACRAMENTO, Calif. — The mayor of Oakland, California, on Tuesday announced a privately funded program that will give low-income families of color $500 per month with no rules on how they can spend it. The program is the latest experiment with a “guaranteed income,” an idea that giving poor people a set amount of money each month helps ease the stresses of poverty that often lead to poor health while hindering their ability to find full-time work. The idea isn’t new, but it’s having a revival across the U.S. after some mayors launched small, temporary programs across the country in a coordinated campaign to convince Congress to adopt a national guaranteed income program. The first program launched in 2019 in Stockton, California, led by former Mayor Michael Tubbs. Tubbs, who founded the group Mayors for a Guaranteed Income, has said about six similar programs in other cities should be up and running by the summer. “We have designed this demonstration project to add to the body of evidence, and to begin this relentless campaign to adopt a guaranteed income federally,” Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf said. The Oakland Resilient Families program has so far raised $6.75 million from private donors including Blue Meridian Partners, a national philanthropy group. To be eligible, people must have at least one child under 18 and income at or below 50% of the area median income — about $59,000 per year for a family of three. Half the spots are reserved for people who earn below 138% of the

Participants will be randomly selected from a pool of applicants who meet the eligibility requirements. Oakland’s project is significant because it is one of the largest efforts in the U.S. so far, targeting up to 600 families. And it is the first program to limit participation strictly to Black, Indigenous and people of color communities. The reason: White households in Oakland on average make about three times as much annually than black households, according to the Oakland Equity Index. It’s also a nod to the legacy of the Black Panther Party, the political movement that was founded in Oakland in the 1960s.
“Guaranteed income has been a goal of the Black Panther platform since its founding,” said Jesús Gerena, CEO of Family Independence Initiative, which is partnering with the program in Oakland. “Direct investment in the community in response to systemic injustices isn’t new.” The idea of a guaranteed income dates to the 18th century. The U.S. government experimented with it in the 1960s and 1970s when Republicans Donald Rumsfeld, later a defense secretary, and Dick Cheney, the future vice president, oversaw four programs across the country during the Nixon administration. Those studies concluded the money did not stop people from working, causing Nixon to
recommend expanding the program. But it never got through Congress. Decades later, proponents are trying again, only this time it’s led by progressive mayors. The program in Stockton, California, ended in February. An independent review found that after one year of getting the money, 40% of recipients had full-time jobs compared with 28% before the program started. “The fact that mayors are piloting (guaranteed income programs), using political capital to raise capital to allow their constituents to have basic necessities, is a policy failure,” Tubbs said. “It’s an admission that we need to do more.” It’s unclear what a national guaranteed income program would

Critics, including labor unions, worry such expensive programs could force the elimination of other safety net programs, like Social Security and food stamps. But Schaaf said she is unapologetic that “the social safety net programs must remain.” “We believe that those safety net programs should not go away, but should be supplemented with unconditional cash that gives families the dignity and flexibility to meet their needs,” she said.

A form of guaranteed income could take effect for many parents this year as part of the latest federal stimulus package. Congress expanded the child tax credit, with the goal of giving many parents monthly payments of up to $300 per month. Those payments are temporary. In California, a proposal by Assemblyman Evan Low to give $1,000 a month to adults with certain incomes could cost up to $129 billion annually — more than half the state’s total budget — paid for by a new 1% tax on incomes above $2 million.

US, Europe, NATO close ranks to counter ‘aggressive’ China By Lorne Cook The Associated Press BRUSSELS — The United States and countries around Europe are closing ranks to respond to “aggressive and coercive” behavior by China, days after the U.S. and its allies launched coordinated sanctions against Chinese officials accused of rights abuses in the far-western Xinjiang region. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Wednesday that he wants to work with the U.S.’s partners on “how to advance our shared economic interests and to counter some of China’s aggressive and coercive actions, as well as its failures, at least in the past, to uphold its international commitments.” Blinken spoke after talks in Brussels with NATO foreign ministers. He will also raise the tense state of relations with China in talks later Wednesday with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell. “When we are acting together, we are much stronger and much more effective than if any single one of us is doing it alone,” Blinken said.

On Monday, the U.S., EU, Britain and Canada imposed asset freezes and travel bans on a group of officials in Xinjiang. China retaliated by slapping sanctions on 10 Europeans, including lawmakers and academics, and four institutions. Beijing said they had damaged China’s interests and “maliciously spread lies and disinformation.” Initially, China denied
the existence of camps detaining Uyghur Muslims in Xinjiang but has since described them as centers to provide job training and to re-educate those exposed to extremists. Chinese officials deny all charges of human rights abuses there. Blinken said in a speech at NATO that Beijing’s retaliatory sanctions “make it all the more important that we stand firm and stand together, or
risk sending the message that bullying works.” But views on the way that business and trade should play out differ across the Atlantic. The EU is China’s biggest trading partner but they are also economic competitors. As Beijing has become more assertive in recent years, the 27-nation bloc has struggled to balance its commercial interests with a country that it sees as “a
systemic rival” and has human rights concerns about. The two sealed a major investment agreement in December giving European businesses about the same level of market access in China as those from the United States. It was announced just weeks before President Joe Biden took office and raised some concerns that the Europeans were undercutting Biden’s leverage as he
looked to take a tougher line on China. But Blinken said “the United States won’t force our allies into an ‘us-orthem’ choice with China.” He warned of Beijing’s threatening behavior, but said “that doesn’t mean countries can’t work with China where possible, for example on challenges like climate change and health security.” In terms of China’s military aggressiveness, Blinken noted its “efforts to threaten freedom of navigation, to militarize the South China Sea, to target countries throughout the Indo-Pacific with increasingly sophisticated military capabilities. Beijing’s military ambitions are growing by the year.” NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said the military alliance does not “regard China as an adversary, but of course the rise of China has direct consequences for our security.” He noted that China is investing heavily in military equipment, including nuclear-capable missiles. “More importantly, China is a country that doesn’t share our values. We see that in the way they deal with democratic protests in Hong Kong, how they suppress minorities in their own country, the Uyghurs, and also how they actually try to undermine the international rules-based order,” Stoltenberg said.
Massive cargo ship becomes wedged, blocks Egypt’s Suez Canal
By Jon Gambrell and Samy Magdy The Associated Press
ISMAILIA, Egypt — A skyscraper-sized container ship has become wedged across Egypt’s Suez Canal and blocked all traffic in the vital waterway, officials said Wednesday, threatening to disrupt a global shipping system already strained by the coronavirus pandemic. The Ever Given, a Panama-flagged ship that carries cargo between Asia and Europe, ran aground Tuesday in the narrow, man-made canal dividing continental Africa from the Sinai Peninsula. Images showed the ship’s bow was touching the eastern wall, while its stern looked lodged against the western wall — an extraordinary event that experts said they had never heard of happening before in the canal’s 150-year history. Tugboats strained Wednesday to try to nudge the obstruction out of the way as ships hoping to enter the waterway began lining up in the Mediterranean and Red Seas. But it remained unclear when the route, through which around 10% of world trade flows and which is particularly crucial for the transport of oil, would reopen. One official warned it could take at least two days. In the meantime, there were concerns that idling ships could become targets for attacks. “The Suez Canal will not spare any efforts to ensure the restoration of navigation and to serve the movement of global trade,” vowed Lt. Gen. Ossama Rabei, head of the Suez Canal Authority. Bernhard Schulte Shipmanagement, which manages the Ever Given, said all 20 members of the crew were safe and that there had been “no reports of injuries or pollution.” It wasn’t immediately clear what caused the ship to become wedged on Tuesday morning. GAC, a global shipping and logistics company, said the ship had experienced a blackout without elaborating. Bernhard Schulte, how-
ever, denied the ship ever lost power. Evergreen Marine Corp., a major Taiwan-based shipping company that operates the ship, said in a statement that the Ever Given had been overcome by strong winds as it entered the canal from the Red Sea but none of its containers had sunk. An Egyptian official, who spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to brief journalists, similarly blamed a strong wind. Egyptian forecasters said high winds and a sandstorm plagued the area Tuesday, with winds gusting as much as 50 kph (30 mph). However, it remained unclear how winds of that speed alone would have been able to push a fully laden vessel weighing some 220,000 tons. Tuesday marked the second major crash involving the Ever Given in recent years. In 2019, the cargo ship ran into a small ferry moored on the Elbe river in the German port city of Hamburg. Authorities at the time blamed strong wind for the collision, which severely damaged the ferry. A pilot from Egypt’s canal authority typically boards a ship to guide it through the waterway, though the ship’s captain retains ultimate authority over the vessel, said Ranjith Raja, a lead analyst at the data firm Refinitiv. The vessel entered the canal some 45 minutes before it became stuck, moving at 12.8 knots (about 24 kph, 15 mph) just before the crash, he said. An image posted to Instagram by a user on another waiting cargo ship appeared to show the Ever Given wedged across the canal as shown in satellite images and data. A backhoe appeared to be digging into the sand bank under its bow in an effort to free it. The Egyptian official said tugboats hoped to refloat the ship and that the operation would take at least two days. The ship ran aground some 6 kilometers (3.7 miles) north of the southernly mouth of
the canal near the city of Suez, an area of the canal that’s a single lane. That could have a major knock-on effect for global shipping moving between the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea, warned Salvatore R. Mercogliano, a former merchant mariner and associate professor of history at North Carolina’s Campbell University. “Every day, 50 vessels on average go through that canal, so the closing of the canal means no vessels are transiting north and south,” Mercogliano told the AP. “Every day the canal is closed ... container ships and tankers are not delivering food, fuel and manufactured goods to Europe and goods are not being exported from Europe to the Far East.” Already, some 30 vessels waited at Egypt’s Great Bitter Lake midway on the canal, while some 40 idled in the Mediterranean near Port Said and another 30 at Suez in the Red Sea, according to canal service provider Leth Agencies. That included seven vessels carrying some 5 million barrels of crude oil, Refinitiv said. In addition to the economic implications, security experts warned that idling ships in the Red Sea could be targets after a series of attacks against shipping in the Mideast amid tensions between Iran and the U.S. “All vessels should consider adopting a heightened posture of alertness if forced to remain static within the Red Sea or Gulf of Aden,” warned private marine intelligence firm Dryad Global. The closure also could affect oil and gas shipments to Europe from the Mideast. The price of international benchmark Brent crude jumped nearly 2.9% to $62.52 a barrel Wednesday. The Ever Given, built in 2018 with a length of nearly 400 meters (a quarter mile) and a width of 59 meters (193 feet), is among the largest cargo ships in the world. It can carry some 20,000 containers at a time. It previously had been at ports in China before heading

Opened in 1869, the Suez Canal provides a crucial link for oil, natural gas and cargo. It also remains one of Egypt’s top foreign currency earners. In 2015, the government of President Abdel-Fattah el-Sissi completed a major expansion of the canal, allowing it to accommo-
date the world’s largest vessels. However, the Ever Given ran aground south of that new portion of the canal. The stranding Tuesday marks just the latest to affect mariners amid the pandemic. Hundreds of thousands have been stuck aboard vessels due to the pandemic. Meanwhile, demands on ship-
ping have increased, adding to the pressure on tired sailors, Mercogliano said. “It’s because of the breakneck pace of global shipping right now and shipping is on a very tight schedule,” he said. “Add to it that mariners have not been able to get on and off vessels because of COVID restrictions.”

Universal Press Syndicate DEAR ABBY: I am a faithful male reader of your column. I lost my beautiful wife of 40 years last year. During our marriage, I had prostate cancer and decided to have the surgery to remove it. I was told by my doctor that there was a chance I would never again be intimate with my wife, and she was OK with it. Now that she’s gone, I have grown close to her childhood best friend. I don’t know whether a relationship is in the making, but I’m afraid once she finds out I’m unable to perform, the relationship will die. I have tried every pill on the market,

It would have been better if you had explained that you are uncomfortable in large groups and would prefer to see her one-on-one if she was willing. It may not be too late to get that message across to her. If the price of her company is that you will have to learn to be more social, you will then have to decide which is more important. HHHHH

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
ARIES (March 21-April 19)
Hard work will pay off. Reach out to someone who can provide you with pertinent suggestions. Don’t be lazy when it comes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Commit to taking better care of yourself.
Indulgence will tempt you. Before you overdo it, think about the possible consequences. You can have fun without going overboard or being obsessive. Focus on self-improvement. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Attend a virtual networking event. The connections you make will yield plenty of suggestions that will help you rethink the best way to use your skills. It’s up to you to make the first move. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Rearrange your domestic surroundings to suit your needs. Consider making a move if you’ve outgrown your space or it’s time to downsize. A change will give you the boost you need. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Don’t lose sight of your dreams in the face of opposition. Satisfy your needs and follow the path that feels right. Expect emotional manipulation if you get into a joint venture or share expenses with someone. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Do something because it interests you, not because someone is twisting your arm. Personal growth will bring satisfaction and attract the attention of people who appreciate your individualism. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Refuse to let a change of plans frustrate or anger you. Nurture a meaningful relationship, but don’t let anyone faze you. Be reasonable and diplomatic to avoid a pointless
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Indecisiveness will set in if you let your emotions run amok. Do what you must to find peace of mind. Putting up with something that brings you down or disrupts your life won’t help. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Look for opportunities that allow you to use what you already have. Sidestep someone jealous or eager to make you look bad. Don’t let anyone interfere in your domestic or love life. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Don’t take a health risk or jeopardize your relationship with loved ones. The changes you want to make at home will be pricey if you don’t do your homework. Be mindful of your budget. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Concentrate on getting what you want. Keep at a distance anyone who is trying to tempt or mislead you. It’s important to be true to yourself and your beliefs. Put your energy where it counts. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Do your own thing, and avoid getting into a spat with a friend or relative. Tidy up loose ends, and put changes in place that will give you greater freedom to follow your dreams, hopes and wishes.
