US debates cutting some aid to Egypt WASHINGTON (AP) — The Obama administration, undertaking a major review of U.S. relations with Egypt, edged closer to a decision Tuesday about curtailing some of America’s $1.5 billion in annual aid after the Egyptian military’s crackdown on supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi.

Tensions in Egypt have soared since the ar my ousted Morsi, who was the nation’s first freely elected president. The July 3 coup followed days of protests by millions of Egyptians demanding that Morsi, who hails from the Islamist Muslim Brotherhood, step down. Some 1,000 people have been killed in ensuing violence.
Smoothing out the street
The U.S. is in a bind. While it wants to continue aiding Egypt to maintain ties with the military-run government and assert its influence in the region, the Obama administration and lawmakers do not want to appear to be condoning the bloody crackdown. To express its displeasure, the U.S. suspended the delivery of four F-16 fighter jets to Egypt and canceled biennial U.S.-Egyptian military exercises planned for next month. In canceling the military

INDEX
New Mexico maintains laws not found in other states. For example: it retains the distinction between assault and battery. Assault is behavior that is threatening where no physical contact is made. Thus, if one person shouts at or makes a gesture to another individual that suggests threat of bodily har m, but does not touch the person, this is assault. If the person strikes another with a fist, open hand or even spits on someone, this is battery. The difference is the element of touch. Aggravated assault requires the use of a weapon in the implied
threat. Therefore, one man pulls a gun on another individual, but does not shoot it, it’s aggravated assault. Meanwhile, shooting at an individual and missing is covered by another statute “shooting at or from a motor vehicle or residence.” If the person is struck with a weapon, whether it is a baseball bat or a bullet, this is aggravated battery. Often, statutes appear straightforward, the language simple and direct. The interpretation of the laws change once the appellate and supreme courts rule on them. What was once clear -cut can become complicated. It has

State officials cleared in Benghazi security gaps
WASHINGTON (AP) — Four State Department officials have been cleared of security failures that led to an attack last year on a diplomatic outpost in Benghazi, Libya, that killed U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, authorities said Tuesday. State spokeswoman Marie Harf said the officials, who held senior positions at the Bureau of Diplomatic Security and the Bureau of Near East Af fairs during the Sept. 11, 2012, attack, will be reassigned to new jobs. She said an inter nal State r eview concluded
See LAWS, Page A3
“there was no breach of duty” by any of the four, who have been on paid administrative leave for months.
The State Department is not investigating any other employees. But the Benghazi attack has been under intense scrutiny by some House Republicans who have suggested the Obama administration is trying to cover up the circumstances and aftermath of the attack that left Stevens and three other Americans dead. A review in December by the independent Benghazi Accountability Review
Board described a security vacuum in Libya after rebel forces toppled the decades-long r egime of str ongman Moammar Gadhafi. It singled out the State Department’s Bur eau of Diplomatic Security and the Bureau of Near East Af fairs for lacking cooperation and being confused over protection at the diplomatic post in Benghazi. Among the four officials are Eric Boswell, assistant secretary of state for diplomatic security; Charlene Lamb, deputy assistant See BENGHAZI, Page A3

Ex-wife testifies in murder trial of Ariz. escapee ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The call from her ex-husband came in the middle of the night. All Joy Glattfelder knew was there were hostages involved and John McCluskey needed her to pick him up in Flagstaff, Ariz. It was just hours after a prison break. McCluskey, a fellow inmate and their accomplice had kidnapped a pair of truckers, commandeered their semi and had been driving for more than four hours. They needed another ride. “It was a matter of a life and death situation. If I didn’t go, some people were going to die,” she tes-
tified Tuesday. “I really didn’t know what to do. I was in a really bad situation.” Glattfelder took the stand Tuesday in the capital murder trial of McCluskey, the last of three defendants to be tried on federal carjacking and murder charges in the 2010 slayings of Gary and Linda Haas of Tecumseh, Okla. Glattfelder told jurors that she didn’t immediately know what had happened but that something wasn’t right. She knew McCluskey was supposed to be “locked up.” After panicking and pacing her
Prescott Valley home, she decided to go. She loaded up some clothes and her 12-yearold daughter, then took the trio to a country store owned by McCluskey’s mother. There they picked up cash, supplies and keys to another get-away car that was parked at a family home in Mesa. Under questioning, Glattfelder said she couldn’t recall many details of that night. McCluskey’s defense team, meanwhile, questioned her credibility, accusing her of cooperating with prosecutors to get her own charges in the
escape reduced to one charge of hindering the prosecution. She faces up to 30 years in prison. Glattfelder described McCluskey and the others as nervous. She said she was nervous too but acknowledged not taking advantage of any opportunities to leave the group or call authorities. She said McCluskey told her not to contact anyone. Prosecutors said it was two more days before McCluskey and the others would decide to target the Haases for their pickup truck and trailer at a rest stop near the Texas-New Mexico state line.

Judge to announce Manning’s sentence
FORT MEADE, Md. (AP) — A military judge said announce on she’ll Wednesday the sentence for Ar my Pfc. Bradley Manning, who gave reams of classified information to WikiLeaks. Army Col. Denise Lind said Tuesday she was still deliberating but she was confident she would have a sentence by Wednesday morning. “At 10 a.m. tomorrow I will announce the sentence,” Lind said about 2 1/2 hours into her deliberations. Manning faces up to 90 years in prison for leaking more than 700,000 Iraq and Afghanistan battlefield reports and State Depart-
ment diplomatic cables in 2010 while working as an intelligence analyst in Iraq. He also leaked video of a U.S. helicopter attack in Baghdad in which at least nine people were killed, including a Reuters news photographer and his driver. Prosecutors have asked for at least a 60-year prison ter m. Capt. Joe Morrow said in his closing argument Monday that a long prison sentence would dissuade other soldiers from following in Manning’s footsteps. “There’s value in deterrence,” Morrow said. The defense has suggested a prison term of no more than 25 years, so that

Group says lottery scholarships should be awarded on need ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A nonprofit advocacy group recommends that New Mexico change its lottery-funded college scholarship program to provide assistance based on a student’s financial need. New Mexico Voices for Children issued a report Monday suggesting the change to help prevent the program from running short of money in the 2014-2015 school year. New Mexico students qualify for a scholarship covering tuition if they
enroll in a public college or university in the state after graduating from high school, attend full time and maintain a 2.5 point grade point average. Scholarship costs are growing faster than lottery revenue in part because of tuition increases.
The report said most student aid in New Mexico is based on academic merit rather than financial need although the state has a high poverty rate.
Lonetree, the only Marine ever convicted of espionage, was given a 30-year sentence, later reduced to 15 years, for giving the Soviet KGB the identities of U.S. CIA agents and the floor plans of the embassies in Moscow and Vienna in the early 1980s. U.S. civilian courts have ordered life in prison for spies, including Aldrich Ames, a former CIA case officer convicted in 1994 of spying for the Soviet Union and Russia and former FBI agent Robert Hanssen, convicted in 2001 of spying for Moscow.

measured some 4.8 inches of rainfall since January. But the city should have received 8 inches by this time. “What we haven’t really gotten yet is the kind of rain events that create enough running water to have enough impact for our aquifer and the Pecos River,” Balok said. The region needs monsoon flood events to bring in large quantities of water in short amounts of time to recharge the Roswell Basin aquifer and get the rivers flowing. “To get a large delivery to the downstream areas and to Carlsbad, they need those flood events,” Balok said. But the rain has helped local agriculture by growing grass. “It’s done wonders for
the ranchers,” Balok said. “It’s helped everyone.” The rain hit the fields at the right time, according to Dick Smith, PVACD board member and superintendent of the county Flood Commission. The corn will soon be harvested, at which time water use will drop off dramatically. “Once the corn is harvested, they quit irrigating,” Smith said. “So the water use is going to slow down shortly and the water table will typically begin to recover during that time.” Earlier this month, the USDA estimated U.S. corn output could be a record 13.76 billion bushels, 28 percent more than last year. Farmers will begin to plant grains in the fall

a direct influence not only on the courts, but also on police work. Lt. Britt Snyder of the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office said: “New Mexico is like our own little country in terms of our laws because of the appellate courts.” District Attorney Janetta Hicks commented during a recent Republican Women’s Dinner: “The laws change daily.” The interpretation of statutes changes often enough that a weekly magazine, The New Mexico Bar Bulletin, is issued to attorneys statewide to keep them abreast of the most current revisions. Law enforcement, though, is not issued copies of the revisions, with the result that officers learn when they submit material to the courts that more work is required because of revisions in statutes that come from either appellate or supreme courts. “In many situations, the line between what the courts deem acceptable and unacceptable police action is very gray. Of ficers are expected to accurately apply that law to their current situation, sometimes in a matter of seconds, and then lawyers spend months picking apart those decisions. It leaves good officers
very frustrated,” said Hicks. The DA’s office holds classes for the various law enforcement agencies every two years to keep them apprised of the changes. New Mexico, like many other states, has a provision for habitual offenders which provides a sentencing enhancement from one to eight years, depending on the number of crimes. The higher courts, though, deemed that the only offenses that can be counted are those which occur after the conviction for the first offense. If a burglar is caught and charged for theft in November, with the trial set in May, the culprit can then commit a number of burglaries subsequent to the original. However, if the offenses happen before the trial for, and conviction of the original crime, then these offenses do not count. Even if the offender is later convicted for the subsequent burglaries, the crimes do not count according to case law interpretation of the habitual offender act. The person can be convicted of five burglaries, but only the first will count if those burglaries and arrests take place before the first conviction. In State vs. Koonsman, the higher courts ruled: “there was only one crime-conviction (the August-September 1994 offense and conviction) in proper sequence prior to the February-August 1999 offense and convic-

exercises, President Barack Obama said that America’s traditional cooperation with Egypt “cannot continue as usual” while violence and instability deepen. The administration now is deciding what it wants U.S. engagement in Egypt to look like and what, if any, aid, should be cut. Congress, meanwhile, appears split on whether to suspend the aid, with some saying that would deprive Washington of leverage over those in power in Cairo. So far, Obama has opted against any swift
that don’t require as much water. Unfortunately, the rain hasn’t been steady or enough to send it downstream to Carlsbad and begin fulfilling an agreement to provide its agriculture community with irrigation. “We haven’t had much recharge yet,” Smith said. “I’m hopeful that we get some.” Since Aug. 1, Roswell has measured 1.46 inches of rainfall. “We need floods to get some water down there to Carlsbad,” Smith said. The region needs at least a week of steady rain every day, followed by one strong storm, to get the runoff it needs to replenish the aquifer. And, the greener the ground gets, the less
reaction, insisting it would not serve U.S. national interests to suddenly eliminate funding for operations that cover everything from fighting al-Qaida in the heart of the Middle East and safeguarding the stability of the Suez Canal to halting weapons flow to the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip and ensuring Israel’s security. For weeks the administration has said it won’t characterize the military’s takeover of the Egyptian government as a coup d’etat.’ Such a determination
tion. The August 26, 1994, crimeconviction cannot be counted because it fell between the August 19 offense and the related September 1994 conviction. The December 1998 offense cannot be counted because there was no conviction for it before the February 1999 offense was committed.” In addition, the habitual offender act, as passed by the Legislature, imposes a 10-year time limit. A person convicted of a crime, or series of crimes, in 2000 who commits a similar offense in 2011 cannot receive the sentencing enhancement as the habitual offender because 10 years have passed between offenses. This has a direct bearing on cases tried in Roswell. For example, the district attorney has a case where a man is facing charges of burglary. He has been arrested and convicted on these same charges multiple times, but none were committed within a permissible time frame, so his convictions count only as one crime. The sentencing enhancement would have allowed for eight years for four or more convictions to be added to standard sentence of 18 month, but does not qualify. Snyder said: “Sometimes it seems that they tie our hands at every chance. The U.S. Supreme Court often rules in favor of law enforcement, New Mexico rarely does.”
would not only make it appear that the U.S. was taking sides in the internal conflict, but it also would, under U.S. law, trigger an automatic suspension of most aid programs. However, while the administration has not declared Egypt’s military takeover a coup, officials are essentially treating it as such internally and are reviewing aid under the guidelines that govern such a determination, a U.S. official said. Stopping short of making a formal declaration gives the U.S. flexibility in what aid it might cut off, the official said. It also would make it easier to reinstate aid later. The official spoke only

Meteorologist Amanda Martin, of the National Weather Service in Albuquerque, said a high-pressure system that has taken hold above central New Mexico is keeping precipitation away from Chaves County. A moisture surge from Mexico is headed into the region, but will likely hit wester n and norther n New Mexico because of the high-pressure system. “It really doesn’t look like we’re going to be tapping into too much of that moisture because of the position of that high pressure,” Martin said.

Tuesday’s announcement dr ew a sharp r ebuke fr om House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, who has been leading a congressional probe of the government’s response to the attack. “Instead of accountability, the State Department offered a charade that included false reports of firings and resignations and now ends in a game of musical chairs where
no one misses a single day on the State Department payroll,” Issa, R-Calif., said in a statement.
He called the government’s response to the attacks “more of a public relations strategy than a measured response to a failure in leadership.”
Issa has repeatedly questioned the State Department review’s findings in December, which he says were developed in secret and appear to have failed to include interviews with witnesses.
He said he will expand his investigation to include the department’s decision to not discipline the four officials.
Beware warrior cops in a warrior society A4 Wednesday, August 21, 2013
We need police to catch murderers, thieves and con men, and so we give them special power — the power to use force on others. Sadly, today’s police use that power to invade people’s homes over accusations of trivial, nonviolent offenses — and often do it with tanks, battering rams and ar mor you’d expect on battlefields. In his book “Rise of the Warrior Cop,” Radley Balko recounts the rise of police SWAT teams (SWAT stands for Special Weapons And Tactics) armed with heavy military equipment. SWAT raids began as rarely used methods of dealing with violent situations, like hostage-takings. But government always grows. In the 1970s, there were about 300 SWAT raids per year. “As of 2005,” says Balko, “100 to 150 per day.” What began as a few specialized groups of police trained to address genuine threats to safety has degenerated into small armies descending on organic far ms where far mers

The increase began under Nixon-era politicians who wanted to look “tough on crime,” even if that meant exaggerating the threat posed by illegal drugs. As the futile war on drugs escalated, cops worried that drug users would destroy evidence if cops knocked and announced themselves. So they stopped doing that, changing a centuries-old rule that treated citizens’ homes as their castles — castles whose owners must be presented with a warrant before police can enter. Soon, every police department wanted a SWAT team — and many were more interested

in getting cool military gear than in considering the potential downside — like terrorizing innocent people, raiding the wrong house and causing violence. “I found over 50 cases where a completely innocent person was killed in one of these raids,” says Balko. Often this happens because the homeowner does not realize who is breaking down his door in the middle of the night. Iraq War veteran Jose Guerena just knew that armed men were bursting in. So he picked up his semi-automatic rifle. Before he could take the safety off, police fired 71 bullets, hitting him 22 times. Police raided his house because they suspected drugs were there. But after Guerena was killed, police found no drugs and no evidence of drug dealing. Today, the vast majorit y o f S WA T r a i d s a r e a b o u t drugs, not terrorism or hostage situations. Guerena’s brother was arrested on drug charges. Balko says, “It appears Guerena’s crime was being related to
someone.” Now that the public is finally starting to have doubts about the drug war, another type of w a r h a s a r r i v e d : t h e Wa r o n Terror. The idea that domestic enemies need to be raided and rooted out — that law enforcement should be given a free hand or we could all be killed — got a new lease on life. And a new source of funding. Despite laws clearly saying that soldiers may not be used for domestic policing except in very special circumstances, the Pentagon and the Department of Homeland Security now offer armored vehicles — tanks and troop transports, body armor and stun grenades — to police departments, large or small. Local police jumped at the chance to have new toys — so they expanded the circumstances under which those toys get used. A sherif f in quiet Concord, N.H., cites people not so different from me as an excuse for getting DHS money to buy an armored vehicle. In an application for what is essentially a
tank, he wrote that groups like the Free State Project — libertarians who moved to New Hampshire seeking increased individual freedom — pose “daily challenges” to the police of Concord. Most libertarians argue that police, courts and military are legitimate functions of government. We focus our skepticism on completely illegitimate government actions, like corporate welfare. But few freedoms are more basic than being able to sleep securely in your bed without armored men bursting through your door. John Stossel is host of “Stossel” on the Fox Business Network.

The coldest, most refreshing beer editorial ever
It is good to see the “beer wars” resume. It’s been years since Anheuser-Busch and its various rivals were attacking each other’s advertising.
This time the issue is the “world’s most refreshing can,” as touted by MillerCoors for its Coors Light beer can. It’s not entirely clear how a can can be refreshing, so A-B complained to the advertising industry’s Advertising Self-Regulatory Council.
As reported Thursday by the Post-Dispatch’s Lisa Brown, A-B also is unhappy with MillerCoors’ claims that its can provides a “smoother, more refreshing pour,” that it “locks in frost-brewed taste” and can make the beer “as cold as the Rockies” (the mountains, not the baseball team). MillerCoors declined to take part in the council’s deliberations, so the matter has been turned over to the Federal Trade Commission. This is an excellent use of federal resources.
In the glory days of the post-1975 “beer wars,” the breweries fought hilariously. They actually took the issue of what is “light beer” to the Supreme Court. They argued about Dalmatians and carbohydrates, ice beer and the color of beer bottles.
Now A-B is alleging bogus claims for beer cans. For a company that boasts of Budweiser’s superior “drinkability,” this is very boldable.

DEAR DOCTOR K: What does magnesium contribute to good health? Should I have my magnesium level checked? DEAR READER: Magnesium is important for good health. You need adequate magnesium for bone health, and it’s essential for proper nerve, muscle, heart rhythm and immune function. It helps regulate blood sugar levels and promotes healthy blood pressure. We get most of the magnesium we need in food. About half of the magnesium we absorb is stored in bone; the other half is stored in cells throughout the body. Excess magnesium is excreted through the kidneys. If you eat whole-grain bread and your tap water is “hard” — meaning it contains relatively

high levels of minerals — you probably consume more magnesium than a person who favors white bread and drinks “soft” water. Why? The refining process used to make white flour strips away the magnesium-rich germ and bran layer of the wheat. And hard water contains more magnesium than soft water.

their blood. If you’re otherwise healthy, your magnesium level is probably normal and you don’t need to check it regularly. Magnesium deficiency is rare in this country. When it does occur, it can cause muscle weakness, cramping or cardiac arrhythmias. Conditions that impair magnesium absorption include chronic vomiting, Crohn’s disease (an inflammatory condition of the intestine), celiac disease and gastric bypass surgery. In all of these conditions, magnesium is lost in what is vomited or passed in bowel movements. As a result, people with these conditions often have magnesium deficiency. If you suffer from any of them, talk to your doctor about having your magnesium level checked periodically.

Commonly used diuretic medicines also can cause the kidneys to eliminate magnesium in the urine, lowering the level of magnesium in the blood and throughout the body. The thiazide diuretics (such as hydrochlorothiazide) or “loop diuretics” (such as furosemide) are both culprits. People with diabetes whose blood sugar is not well controlled also lose magnesium in the urine. The same is true for people who abuse alcohol. Finally, there are a group of rare inherited diseases that cause an excessive loss of magnesium. How much magnesium should you get? For women ages 19-30, 310 milligrams (mg) daily; ages 31 and older, 320 mg. For men ages 19-30, 400 mg; ages 31 and older, 420 mg.

Popular multivitamin brands contain between 10 percent to 30 percent of the recommended daily allowance (RDA) for magnesium.

eral’s (OIG’s) ef forts to ensure that high quality health care and benefits services are provided to our Nation’s veterans.” The first major assessment regulation reviewed is, “Evaluate how well VA facilities are accomplishing their missions of providing veterans convenient access to high quality medical and benefits services.” Since no deficiency report was issued against the Albuquerque VA Medical Center, you can only conclude the VA OIG considers the 6 ½ hour drive for southeastern veterans as OK! As further consideration, let’s turn the tables for a moment. People making the decision on “access” to VA medical care would not, (themselves), make the trip (from Albuquerque) to Roswell, Hobbs or Carlsbad on a regular basis for their medical care. A couple years ago, one of the high-
est ranking officials in the state veterans services organization, in Roswell for a “dog and pony show” for the local vets, was overheard talking to a colleague from Santa Fe by three of us “down here.” He made the statement he hated making the long, boring and tiring trip from Albuquerque down here. He stated that’s why he does not drive down here but once or twice (a year) unless there’s an emergency. Consider this. We are having gasoline price problems in our country, yes? Think of all the gasoline being wasted by the thousands of trips made by southeastern NM vets to Albuquerque each year. Now, let’s take just one service, say dental care, and have one dentist and a hygienist drive down to Roswell and Hobbs three times a month (or each
T ime after time, distances traveled by veterans in other states (data from in Texas, meetings Arkansas, the New England states, to name a few) were considered excessive if more than 70 minutes round trip (three separate areas in Texas), up to an “unheard of” travel time of 2 hours round trip (Maine). Yet, southeastern NM veterans have to travel 6 plus hours, but that seems to be OK. As a matter of fact, Roswell (was to have) regional services established by the VA more than 10 years ago (CARES commission initial recommendations), but all that was cancelled after the CARES hearing in El Paso on Sept. 18, 2003. Arguments from the Texas American Legion State Commander, the Texas VVA Commander, the Texas DVA Commander and rather pointed letters from (Texas) Senator Kay
Bailey Hutchison, (Texas) Senator John Cor nyn, (Texas), Congressman Charlie Stenholm, (Texas) caused Roswell’s not becoming a health care hub. Any mystery why proposed services in Roswell were cancelled? I think not! Now, here is a glaring bit of bureaucratic imbecility (or foolishness). The VA Office of the Inspector General, not the US OIG, inspects VA medical centers on a regular basis.

Peake (predecessor to current Gen. Shinseki) had appointed 13 people to a new Veterans Rural Health Advisory Committee, “which would advise him on health care issues affecting veterans in rural areas.” In reviewing the committee members, there were two members from Montana, two from Utah, one each from Kansas, Virginia, Maine, West Virginia, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, North Dakota and, (you guessed it!) Texas. Seems like one of the four reps from Utah/ Montana could have been replaced with someone from southeastern NM — but what do I know! Bottom line? An extended clin-

conviction and authority. For those who were not alive at that time, it is important to remember the enormous pressures facing Dr. King, his family and associates. Many voices rejected Dr. King’s nonviolent strategy. They believed such a tactic delayed and thus denied justice. Stokely Carmichael, H. Rap Brown, Eldridge Cleaver, Bobby Seale and his Black Panther Party and others preferred confrontation, including violence. King thought it more effective to appeal to the better angels of whites. He saw goodness — or at least its potential — even in those who called him a communist and much worse. Observing that sea of humanity stretching down the Reflecting Pool was the beginning of a turning point in my own view of civil rights. King appealed to religious themes at a time when much of America still responded to such ideals and even when some, especially Southern churches and Southern Democrats, used scripture to justify segregation. The civil rights movement seems cool in retrospect, but it was dangerous for many and deadly for some. Friends of mine were beaten and jailed for marching for the rights of African-Americans — and not only in the South. Journalists were attacked. This month, Turner Class Movies has been running the documentary “King: A Filmed Record ... from Montgomery to Memphis.” While it has long been available, first on VHS and now DVD and excerpts have been tele-

vised over the years, the broadcast of the entire documentary is magnetic. Mostly without narration, the film is allowed to speak for itself and speak it does ... loudly and powerfully. One sees contorted faces and hears un-bleeped profanities hurled at black marchers. “Go back to Africa!” is one of the few slurs that can be printed in a family newspaper. The scenes are gut-wrenching, embarrassing. Mine was not the only life touched by Dr. King’s “I Have a Dream” speech. It is rightly called one of the greatest orations of all time. For those who were there, this is not an overstatement. One wonders what Dr. King might think of racial progress today. Yes, there have been great advances in civil rights, but fewer advances in strong black families and economic empowerment. Dr. King’s sacrifice opened the door to progress for African-Americans. Perhaps he would say many who are mired in poverty need to go back and retrieve something they seem to have lost, including personal responsibility, accountability and, yes, even faith about which Dr. King often spoke as he salted his speeches with spiritual truths. Such as this one: “I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together.” (Readers may e-mail Cal Thomas at tcaeditors@tribune.com.)
ALBUQUERQUE—American Indian Alaska Native Tourism Association Board Member and Standing Rock Sioux Tribal Tourism Director LaDonna Brave Bull Allard will make a presentation on “Life in the James River Valley” at the Whitestone Hill 150th Commemoration Event this Saturday at 9 a.m. at Whitestone Hill, Kulm, N.D. Sponsored by the State Historic Society of North Dakota and Whitestone Hill Battlefield Historical Society, the event will include stations throughout the day for Dakota life ways, food demonstrations, military life and settler reenactments, Dakota drum and dances, Dakota War history and more. “The 150th Commemoration of the Whitestone Massacre should always be remembered so this never happens again,” said Allard. “This event changed my people forever; we lost our lives, our homes, our land and most of all, our center. On this day of commemoration, we begin the long journey of healing by bringing my nation together again as a people. We remember, we pray and we heal.” Whitestone Hill is where the 6th Iowa and 2nd Nebraska Volunteer Cavalry troops — under Brig. Gen. Alfred Sully — battled with Dakota (Sioux) warriors on Sept. 3 and 5, 1863. The attack was the last battle of the 1863 campaign, and the last major battle between soldiers and American Indians east of the North Dakota’s Missouri River. On the actual anniversary date, Sept. 3, Dakota and Lakota will gather at Whitestone Hill for a private observance. Tentative schedule of events: • 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Stations and Demonstrations • 9 a.m. Opening Prayer by Kevin Locke of The Kevin Locke Native Dance Ensemble • 9:15 a.m. Life in the James River Valley by LaDonna Brave Bull Allard • 11 a.m. The Military Context of Whitestone Hill – Tactics, Artillery and Non-Combatants by HistorianArchaeologist Richard M.

Above: In this Tuesday, Sept. 28, 2010, file photo, author Elmore Leonard works on a manuscript at his home in Bloomfield Township, Mich. Right: In this June, 18, 1996, file photo, writer Elmore Leonard sits on the set of his latest book-turned movie, "Pronto," in Miami Beach, Fla. Leonard, a former adman who later in life became one of America's foremost crime writers, has died. He was 87. His researcher says he passed away Tuesday morning, Aug. 20, 2013, from complications from a stroke.
Author Elmore Leonard dies at 87 DETROIT (AP) — He was the master of his genre, the Dickens of Detroit, the Chaucer of Crime. Pretty much every novel Elmore Leonard wrote from the mid-1980s on was a best-seller, and every fan of crime stories knew his name. George Clooney was an admirer. So were Quentin Tarantino, Saul Bellow and Stephen King and millions of ordinary readers. Leonard, who died Tuesday at age 87, helped achieve for crime writing
what King did for horror and Ray Bradbury for science fiction. He made it hip, and he made it respectable. When the public flocked to watch John Travolta in the movie version of “Get Shorty” in 1995, its author became the darling of Hollywood’s hottest young directors. Book critics and literary stars, prone to dismissing crime novels as light entertainment, competed for adjectives to praise him. Last fall, he became the first
crime writer to receive an honorary National Book Award, a prize given in the past to Philip Roth, Nor man Mailer and Arthur Miller. Few writers so memorably traveled the low road. His more than 40 novels were peopled by pathetic schemers, clever conmen and casual killers. Each was characterized by moral ambivalence about crime, black humor and wickedly acute depictions of human nature: the greedy
dreams of Armand Degas in “Killshot,” the wisecracking cool of Chili Palmer in “Get Shorty,” Jack Belmont’s lust for notoriety in “The Hot Kid.” Leonard’s novels and short stories were turned into dozens of feature films, TV movies and series, including the current FX show “Justified,” which stars T imothy Olyphant as one of Leonard’s signature characters, the cool-under pressure U.S. marshal Raylan Givens.
“So to waste his time when he has other professional responsibilities doesn’t seem fitting, when I don’t intend to use him.” Hasan, an Americanbor n Muslim, began the trial by telling jurors that evidence would show he was the gunman but that it wouldn’t tell the whole story. Since then, he has leaked documents to the media, seemingly to justify the attack as a defense of his faith. One leaked report showed that he told mental health experts after the attack that he believed he could be a martyr if convicted and executed by the government. Prosecution witnesses, including several soldiers shot during the rampage, described how a lone gunman wearing Army fatigues shouted “Allahu Akbar!” — Arabic for “God is great!” — before drawing a laser sighted pistol and opening fire inside a medical building at the Ar my post on Nov. 5, 2009. The building was crowded with unarmed soldiers, many preparing for deployments, getting vaccines and tests. When asked to identify the gunman, witnesses pointed at Hasan, who was left paralyzed and wheel-
chair -bound after being shot by officers responding to the rampage.
Critics loved Leonard’s flawlessly unadorned, colloquial style, as well as how real his characters sounded when they spoke. “People always say, ‘Where do you get (your characters’) words?’ And I say, ‘Can’t you remember people talking or think up people talking in your head?’ That’s all it is. I don’t know why that seems such a wonder to people,” he told The Associated Press last year. Leonard spent much of his childhood in Detroit and set many of his novels in the city. Others were set in Miami near his North
Palm Beach, Fla., vacation home. He died at his home in the Detroit suburb of Bloomfield Township, where he did much of his writing, from complications of a stroke he suffered a few weeks ago, according to his researcher, Gregg Sutter. Crime novelist James Lee Burke said Leonard was a “gentleman of the old school” whose stylistic techniques and “experimentation with point of view and narrative voice had an enormous influence on hundreds of publishing writers.”
Prosecutors rest in Fort Hood trial Hot, dry summer FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — Military prosecutors rested their case Tuesday against the Army psychiatrist accused of killing 13 people during the 2009 shooting rampage at Fort Hood, but whether the soldier plans to do anything to defend himself remains to be seen. After calling nearly 90 witnesses in only 11 days, prosecutors completed their case against Maj. Nidal Hasan. The soldier also is accused of wounding more than 30 people at the Texas Army post during the attack, the worst mass shooting ever on a U.S. military base. The judge then adjourned the trial for the day, meaning Hasan could begin his case Wednesday — but he indicated Tuesday that he planned to call no witnesses. When reminded by the judge when it was time to formally argue that prosecutors hadn’t proven their case, Hasan declined. In fact, Hasan has sat mostly silent during the trial despite acting as his own defense attorney. He has questioned only three witnesses and raised few objections, leaving even the judge, Col. Tara Osborn,
skeptical about whether he would try to convince jurors not to convict him. “We’ll resume tomorrow with the defense’s case, if any,” she said. If convicted, Hasan could face the death penalty. He is charged with numerous counts of premeditated murder and attempted premeditated murder. Osborn reminded Hasan that if he takes the witness stand, he would be required to ask and answer his own questions and couldn’t simply make a statement. She also — again — advised him to take advantage of his standby attor neys, then asked if he still wanted to represent himself. “I do,” Hasan said. But he told the judge he no longer planned to call a professor of psychology and religion at San Francisco Theological Seminary. He did not give a reason, but the professor was the last of two witnesses Hasan had initially said might testify. The move visibly concerned Osborn, who said she wanted the professor at Fort Hood in case Hasan changed his mind. Hasan balked. “I object. I’m not going to be using him,” Hasan said.

Testimony from medical examiners revealed that at leave five of those killed were shot while lying down. An FBI agent testified that Hasan’s apartment was nearly barren when searched the night of the shootings, finding little more than a folding table and prayer mat.
Among the three witnesses Hasan questioned was his for mer supervisor, retired Lt. Col. Ben Phillips. Hasan mumbled rambling questions about “medical personnel initiating mercy killings” and a water supply in Iraq being contaminated with gas. He was cut off by prosecutors’ objection, which was upheld by the judge.
Immediately after prosecutors rested their case Tuesday, the judge reminded Hasan that he could make a motion asking her to find him not guilty, if he believed prosecutors hadn’t proven their case. Hasan — in a rare move — then turned to one of his standby attorneys, who flipped through a law book to point out the appropriate regulation.
pushes wild fire spending past $1B
GRANTS PASS, Ore. (AP) — Wildfires burning in Oregon, Idaho and Montana are taxing national firefighting resources and helping to push spending past $1 billion for the year. The National Interagency Fire Center in Boise upped the national wildfire preparedness level Tuesday to the highest level for the first time in five years. The center lists two central Idaho wildfires as the country’s top priorities, helping provide crews and resources for the Beaver Creek fire, which forced the evacuation of 1,250 homes in the resort area of Ketchum and Sun Valley and has cost nearly $12 million so far. President Barack Obama was briefed Tuesday morning on the wildfires. The White House said the administration’s focus is on supporting state and local first responders and that Obama’s team is in ongoing contact with federal and local partners. More than 40 uncontained, active and large
wildfires dot the U.S. map from Arizona to Washington state and Alaska, the White House said. About 17,800 people have been dispatched to the fires. Steve Gage, assistant director of operations for the fire center, said they can’t fill all the requests for crews and equipment from the 48 fires that remain uncontained around the country.
Gage said as fire season progresses, the center moves crews around to where the greatest assets like houses are threatened, and tries to have crews positioned to catch new fires when they are small.
In Oregon, winds have doubled the size of a wildfire to 10 square miles. The Government Flat fire burned two homes and threatens 150 more on the norther n flanks of Mount Hood. Four days into the battle the cost has topped $1 million, said Oregon Department of Forestry spokesman Dave Morman.

More cases linked to Mass. lab scandal Roswell Daily Record
BOSTON (AP) — A disgraced for mer state chemist may have tainted more prosecutions than officials had first estimated, an independent reviewer of narcotics cases said Tuesday. More than 40,000 defendants may have been affected by the chemist’s mishandling of samples, said David Meier, an attorney appointed by the Massachusetts governor last fall to review prosecutions connected to the state lab scandal. Meier, a former prosecutor who led a file-by-file review of narcotics cases in which Annie Dookhan tested samples, submitted his final report along with a database of defendants who had potentially been affected. The names will not be made public, but will be available to prosecutors, defense attorneys and judges so that “fundamental fairness can be done in the courtrooms,” he said. Authorities had previously estimated publicly that Dookhan had tested samples involving about 34,000 defendants. They have alleged that Dookhan tampered with evidence and faked results during her nine years at the now-closed Boston lab. Dookhan, 35, of Franklin, has pleaded not guilty to a 27-count indictment related to her alleged wrongdoing in cases stemming from six counties. Gov. Deval Patrick thanked Meier for his work to try to help resolve the legal morass. “Now, with this detailed information, the many participants in the criminal justice system can do the work of getting each individual case right,” Patrick said in a statement Tuesday. Administration officials also said Tuesday that the state had spent $7.6 million to date in dealing with the crisis, with
another $2.8 million approved for expenditure. The Legislature has authorized up to $30 million to cover costs incurred by the court system, prosecutors, public defenders and other state agencies. Meier’s law firm of Todd & Weld was separately paid $12,500 per month during the review, the governor’s office said. A year ago, Patrick ordered the lab closed after state police took over the facility through a budget directive and uncovered what they called Dookhan’s failure to follow testing protocols and her deliberate mishandling of evidence. The scandal sent a ripple through the state’s criminal justice system, exposing thousands of convictions to legal challenges. A state spokesman said last week that at least 337 state prison inmates have been let out of custody as a result of the lab scandal, and the Massachusetts District Attorneys Association said at least 1,115 cases were dismissed or not prosecuted because of Dookhan’s involvement or due to problems with producing documents because of the lab closure. Of the 40,323 individuals identified by Meier’s team, about 10,000 were deemed as priority cases because the suspects were incarcerated, awaiting trial in Superior Court or had been convicted based on samples tested by Dookhan, according to the report. Meier said the vast majority of the remaining 30,000 individuals were nonviolent or first-time drug offenders whose cases were heard at the lower district court level. Defense attorneys and legal rights advocates said those people deserved justice as well.

Ryan Miller looks through plants as he is photographed in his yard in Arlington, Va., Monday. Miller has been lobbying his local government to break out the pesticides this year to fight mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes worse this summer in parts of US WASHINGTON (AP) — The tiny mosquito all too often has man on the run. And this summer, it seems even worse than usual. “You can’t get from the car to inside our house without getting attacked, it’s that bad,” high school teacher Ryan Miller said from his home in Arlington, Va. Minutes earlier, he saw a mosquito circling his 4-month-old daughter — indoors. Experts say it’s been a buggier -than-normal summer in many places around the U.S. because of a combination of drought, heavy rain and heat. It may be worst in the Southeast, which is getting hit with three years’ worth of bugs in one summer, said Jonathan Day, who studies insects at the University of Florida. Two years of drought were followed by incredibly heavy rain this year. During dry spells, mosquito eggs often didn’t get wet enough to hatch. This year’s rain revived those, along with the nor mal 2013 batch. In parts of Connecticut this summer, mosquito traps had double the usual number of bugs. Minnesota traps in July had about triple the 10year average. And in cen-
tral California, traps had five times as many of one key species as the recent average. Humans have been battling the blood-drinking bugs for thousands of years, and despite man’s huge advantages in technology and size, people are not getting the upper hand. Just lots of bites on the hand. “We have to keep fighting just to hold our own,” said Tom Wilmot, past president of the Mosquito Control Association and a Michigan mosquito control district chief. And in some places, he said, the mosquitoes are winning. In southwestern Florida around Fort Myers, Lee County mosquito control was getting more than 300 calls per day from residents at times this summer, a much higher count than usual. But the more impressive tally was the number of bugs landing on inspectors’ unprotected legs: more than 100 a minute in some hotspots, said deputy director Shelly Radovan. Across Florida near Vero Beach, Roxanne Connelly said there have been some days this month when she just wouldn’t go in the backyard. It’s been too bad even for her — and she’s a mosquito researcher at
the University of Florida and head of the mosquito association. Many communities fight back by spraying pesticides, but mosquitoes are starting to win that battle, too, developing resistance to these chemicals. Soon many places could be out of effective weapons, Connelly and other mosquitofighters said. Miller, who teaches environmental sciences, said he normally would oppose spraying but has been lobbying for the county to break out the pesticides this year. The county told him there was no money in the budget and recommended he hire a private pest control business, he said. The type that buzzed his daughter — the Asian tiger mosquito, named for its striped body — hit the U.S. a quarter -century ago in a batch of imported scrap tires in Houston and eventually spread to the Northeast, the Midwest and, in 2011, the Los Angeles area. Climate change is also likely to worsen mosquito problems in general because the insects tend to do better in the hotter weather that experts forecast, said Chet Moore, a professor of medical entomology at Colorado State University.

Pakistan court indicts Musharraf in Bhutto killing
RAWALPINDI, Pakistan (AP) — In an unprecedented ruling that tests the military’s aura of inviolability, a court indicted for mer president and army chief Pervez Musharraf Tuesday on murder charges stemming from the 2007 assassination of ex-Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. Musharraf, who became a key U.S. ally in the wake of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks, pleaded not guilty. The decision by the court in Rawalpindi marked the first time a current or former army chief has been charged with a crime in the country. Musharraf, a 70-year-old for mer commando who took power in a 1999 coup and stepped down from office in disgrace nearly a decade later, now faces a
string of legal problems that in many ways challenge the military’s sacrosanct status in Pakistani society. The retired general was charged with murder, conspiracy to commit murder and facilitation for murder, said prosecutor Chaudhry Muhammed Azhar. He did not detail the accusations against Musharraf, but prosecutors have alleged he failed to provide enough protection to Bhutto as she led her Pakistan People’s Party in a parliamentary election that might have given her a third term as prime minister. She was killed in a gun and bomb attack at a rally in Rawalpindi, near the capital, Islamabad. The charges also include clearing the scene of a crime and destroying evi-
dence, Azhar said. Bhutto was respected by many Pakistanis for her condemnation of militancy and support for the poor. But her premiership was marred by accusations of widespread corruption. Her assassination set off protests across the country and helped propel her party to power in parliament and her husband to the presidency. Bhutto’s supporters say Musharraf ignored requests for additional security, and a 2010 U.N. report on her death said he failed to make serious ef forts to ensure Bhutto’s safety. The court also harshly criticized investigators for hosing down the crime scene, failing to perform an autopsy and quickly blaming a Taliban commander for the assassination.
British newspaper recounts confrontation with UK spies LONDON (AP) — A newspaper British released new details of its confrontation with the country’s intelligence service on Tuesday, saying it destroyed hard drives containing material leaked by Edward Snowden in order to insulate the former American intelligence worker from potential prosecution and to keep reporting on his leaks. The Guardian said senior staffers shattered the electronics using angle grinders and drills in midJuly in a bid to avoid legal action or even a police raid that could halt its reporting or provide evidence for U.S. of ficials seeking to put Snowden behind bars. “I didn’t want to get in that position,” editor Alan Rusbridger said in a video interview posted to the Guardian’s website. “Once it was obvious that they would be going to law, I
would rather destroy the copy than hand it back to them or allow the courts to freeze our reporting.” He said the paper has other copies of the same material located elsewhere. Rusbridger spoke as disquiet continued to grow over the detention of Guardian journalist Glen Greenwald’s partner, David Miranda, who was held for nine hours at London’s Heathrow Airport on Sunday as he was ferrying material related to the Snowden story between filmmaker Laura Poitras in Germany and Brazil, where Greenwald is based. Snowden’s leaks have served as the jumping off point for a series of stories about America’s globespanning surveillance program, including revelations that U.S. spies reach deep inside private companies to keep track of tens of millions of innocent Americans’ phone and Internet conversations with limited
independent oversight. The stories have emboldened privacy activists and embarrassed President Barack Obama, who recently unveiled a slate of reforms intelligence intended to calm public concerns. Legal commentators have questioned the legality of Miranda’s detention, which civil liberties groups have decried as an abuse of power aimed at sabotaging Greenwald’s coverage. The British government has declined to comment on the shattered hard drives, but it defended its decision to detain Miranda, saying it was right to stop anyone suspected of possessing “highly sensitive stolen infor mation that would help terrorism.” A law firm representing Miranda has begun legal action against the government, calling his detention unlawful and seeking
The prosecutor said he has a list of 148 witnesses and documents including a note Bhutto sent to a close friend complaining that Musharraf was not providing her with proper security. The judge set Aug. 27 as the next court date to present evidence. But Pakistan court cases can drag on for years, and convictions are often overturned on appeal. But analysts questioned whether the evidence would be sufficient. “To me, it would be very difficult to prove unless they can show an order by him,” said Hasan Askari Rizvi, an independent political analyst. “You can’t really get hold of a president simply because security was not adequate.” The chief U.N. investigator looking into Bhutto’s death, Heraldo Munoz,
assurances that British officials would not share the material seized from Miranda with anyone else. In a letter released to The Associated Press, Londonbased Bindmans called on the government to return a “mobile phone, laptop, memory sticks, smartwatch, DVDs and games consoles” taken from Miranda. “These items contain sensitive, confidential journalistic material and should not have been seized.”
Experts have suggested the government’s case is dicey. The piece of legislation used to stop Miranda — Schedule 7 of the 2000 Terrorism Act — is especially contentious because it allows police to stop people for passing through airports for up to nine hours without suspicion they have committed an offense.
British legal blogger David Allen Green said Schedule 7 could only be to deter mine used whether or not a person was a terrorist — and not, as he put it, “a fishing expedition for property.”

wrote in an article in Foreign Affairs magazine that Bhutto feared militant sympathizers within Musharraf’s government. But
Munoz, who has authored a book on the investigation, said Bhutto likely didn’t think Musharraf actually wanted to kill her.
BEIRUT (AP) — Car bombings targeting Hezbollah strongholds south of Beirut have shaken the Shiite militant group, bringing fear to a community that was largely spared the violence plaguing the rest of Lebanon. Nowadays, pistol-wielding Hezbollah operatives man checkpoints guarding the capital’s southern suburbs, searching vehicles for explosives, frisking residents and occasionally deploying sniffer dogs. Last week’s massive car bombing that killed 27 people and wounded more than 300 in the area was the second such bombing in five weeks and the deadliest one in nearly three decades. It was also the first time the group’s urban bastion, long considered a tightlycontrolled state-within-a state, was targeted by bombers seeking to cause maximum civilian casualties as opposed to targeted assassinations. In a departure from its standard rhetoric, Hezbollah is not blaming its traditional foe Israel,
but rather Sunni extremists for the attacks. Many in Lebanon see the strikes as retaliation for Hezbollah’s highly divisive and controversial armed support for President Bashar Assad in Syria’s civil war. While there has been no credible claim of responsibility, Syrian rebels have threatened to hit back at the group for intervening on behalf of the Assad regime in a conflict that is being fought on increasingly sectarian lines, pitting Sunni Muslims against Shiites. The violence has sent the group’s supporters into unchartered territory. For now, they are closing ranks and voicing unflinching support for the leadership. But recurrent attacks could eventually create new dynamics that loosen Hezbollah’s hold over its Shiite constituency. “Hezbollah is really testing the tolerance level of its support base,” said Bilal Saab, director of the Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis, North America.

Owners Donald and Andrea James relocated to Roswell in July, 2009 from Buffalo, NY. Donald's parents had lived in
Roswell for 10 years prior to Don and Andrea purchasing a house in Roswell. Several factors brought them to Roswell, Don's dad's health was failing and they just wanted to be here to help in any way they could. Sadly before Don and Andrea were able to relocate his dad passed away. “So Mom was here alone and we promised him that we would take care of her. Now we take care of each other. Don insists he moved here to get away from the cold and snow in upstate New York,” Andrea says. Don works fulltime at Roswell Tire & Appliance as the appliance service technician (he has been in this field for over 30 years). Andrea works fulltime at Pioneer Bank in the
mortgage department. Their long-term goal is to be able to retire with their business, Ancients of Days. Don and Andrea are members of the Chaparral Rockhounds whose meetings are held on the 3rd Thursday of every month at the Roswell Adult Center at 7:30 p.m. Coming in October the annual rock and mineral show.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Broncos linebacker Von Miller received a six-game suspension under the NFL’s substanceabuse policy Tuesday, taking away the best defensive player from a team many expect to make a run at the Super Bowl. The league wanted a longer penalty for the third-year linebacker, but the sides agreed to less than half the season, a person familiar with the negotiations between the linebacker and the NFL told The Associated Press. The person who spoke to the AP did not want to be identified because details about the negotiations were not public. Broncos executive vice president John Elway said the team
was frustrated with what happened “and, I think, disappointed in Von.” “We’ll live with that decision,” Elway said. “What I’d like to do is try to do everything we can to prevent any other situations.” According to the NFL, Miller is eligible to play and practice through the last two preseason games. His suspension, without pay, will begin Aug. 31, and will cost him more than $800,000 of the nearly $2.3 million he’s scheduled to make this season. He’ll be allowed at the team facility, but not at practice during the suspension. He can return to the field Oct. 14, the day after Denver’s home game against Jacksonville, and will be eligible for an Oct. 20 contest at

the Indianapolis Colts. After being notified of the decision, Miller released a statement saying, “although my suspension doesn’t result from a positive test, there is no excuse for my violations of the rules.” “I made mistakes and my suspension has hurt my team, Broncos fans, and myself,” he said. “I am especially sorry for the effect of my bad decisions on others. I will not make the same mistakes about adhering to the policy in the future. “ The NFL has two drug policies — one that covers use of performance-enhancing substances and the “Policy and Pro-

Goddard’s Bianca Morones (14) controls a loose ball in front of teammate Danielle Hubbard during the Rockets’ win over Alamogordo in the debut for both teams, Tuesday.
Aside from district and playoff games, there is not a more anticipated game in the high school soccer season than the season opener. Before the opening whistle, teams have dreams of district titles and blue trophies dancing in their collective heads. While a season can’t be won or lost after just one game, a team’s mindset and style of play can be deter mined after 80 minutes of action. What did Rocket fans find out about their girls soccer team following their 4-1 victory over Alamogordo in the season opener? That they will be aggressive at both ends and have multiple scoring threats. “I was pleased with the way we played. The young girls stepped up and did an excellent job,” said Goddard coach Betty Elizondo regarding her team’s play. “I think the younger girls I have, they are aggressive. They have some experience playing select team ball and with their experience on that, it helped out.” The Tigers nearly took the lead less than 30 seconds in when Genevieve Telles had an open look at goal, but Goddard’s Bianca Banda made a nice save to keep the game scoreless. Goddard (1-0) controlled possession for a majority of the first half
Kelly tabs Vick as starting QB in Philly
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Michael Vick took a pay cut and had to compete for his job when he returned to the Eagles. Part of the choice had to do with the up-tempo offense mapped out by new coach Chip Kelly. “I just thought,” Vick said, “this was the best opportunity, the best fit for me.” Turns out, Vick was the best fit for Kelly. With his first chance to put his stamp on Philadelphia’s offense, Kelly named Vick the starting quarterback on Tuesday, giving the veteran the nod over Nick Foles after a sterling effort in the preseason. “He’s our starter for the season,” Kelly said. “It’s not a one-game trial

DUNCAN, Okla. (AP) — With a motive that’s both chilling and simple — to break up the boredom of an Oklahoma summer — three teenagers randomly targeted an Australian collegiate baseball player who was attending school in the U.S. and killed him for fun, prosecutors said Tuesday as they charged two of the boys with murder. Prosecutor Jason Hicks called the boys “thugs” as he described how Christopher Lane, 22, of Melbourne, was shot once in the back and died along a tree-lined road on Duncan’s well-to-do north side. He said the three teens, from the grittier part of town, chose Lane at random and that one of the boys “thinks it’s all a joke.” Hicks charged Chancey Allen Luna, 16, and James Francis Edwards Jr., 15, of Duncan, with first-degree murder. Under Oklahoma law they will be tried as adults. Michael Dewayne Jones, 17, of Duncan, was charged with using a vehicle in the discharge of a weapon and with accessory to firstdegree murder after the fact. He is considered a youthful offender but will be tried in adult court. Jones wept in the courtroom after he tried to speak about the incident but was cut off by the judge who said it wasn’t the time to sort out the facts of the case. Jones faces anywhere from two years to life in prison if convicted on the counts he faces. The two younger teens face life in prison without parole if convicted on See CHARGED, Page B3

Dempster suspended five games, fined for plunking A-Rod
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Boston’s Ryan Dempster accepted his punishment without admitting any misdeed. Dempster was suspended for five games and fined by Major League Baseball on Tuesday for intentionally hitting New York Yankees star Alex Rodriguez with a pitch last weekend. While Dempster still maintains he was only trying to establish the inside part of the plate and wasn’t trying to hit Rodriguez on purpose, he will not contest the punishment and began serving it Tuesday. “I thought about appealing,” Dempster said before Boston played the Giants. “At the end of the day, I think Major League Baseball does a really good job of thinking through punishments before they hand them out. I thought it was in the best interest of us as a team to go ahead and serve my suspension.” MLB senior vice president Joe Garagiola Jr. announced the penalty two days after Dempster hit A-Rod in the second inning at Fenway Park. Yankees manager Joe Girardi was fined for arguing with plate umpire Brian O’Nora.
Dempster’s fine was $2,500 and Girardi’s was $5,000, people familiar with the discipline told The Associated Press. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the amounts were not announced. Dempster was scheduled to pitch Saturday at the Los Angeles Dodgers but now could be pushed back to next Tuesday’s homestand opener against Baltimore. He will throw a simulated game on Friday. Boston is off Thursday, and Jon Lester will be able to pitch on regular rest Saturday in Dempster’s place. Jake Peavy is set to go Sunday on normal four days’ rest. “That has nothing to do with it,” Dempster said. “I think it has to do with taking my suspension and put it past. There’s no point in carrying out an appeals process. We have other things to worry about and that’s going out and winning a ballgame tonight against the San Francisco Giants. I’ll take my punishment.” Earlier Tuesday, Girardi insisted it would be “open season” on Rodriguez if MLB failed

Beltre homers for Texas in 4-2 win over Astros
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Adrian Beltre hit his 26th homer for the AL West-leading Texas Rangers, who reached 20 games over .500 for the first time this season with a 4-2 victory over the Houston Astros on Tuesday night. Beltre’s two-run drive came against rookie righthander Jarred Cosart (1-1) in the sixth inning. Beltre, whose 160 hits are one behind Miguel Cabrera for the major league lead, also doubled and scored in the second. Matt Dominguez homered for Houston, which has lost seven in row and 13 of 14 against the Rangers. Neal Cotts (5-2) struck out the first three batters he faced over 1 1⁄3 innings and was credited with the win. The lefty was the second reliever after T ravis Blackley pitched four innings against his former

Former Ohio State coach Tressel teaching class
It’s now Professor Tressel. Former Ohio State coach Jim Tressel will teach a course this fall at the University of Akron, where he has worked in an administration role for the past two years. He will instruct students in “General Principles of Coaching” with former Zips coach Jim Dennison, who was Akron’s coach when Tressel began his coaching career at the school as an assistant in 1974. “He gave me my first opportunity to coach,” Tressel said, “and he provided guidance that has lasted me a lifetime.” The three-credit course, which will be held once a week and run into December, will be open to Akron students and the general public. Tressel was forced to resign at Ohio State in 2011 amid a scandal involving several players. He spent 10 years as coach of the Buckeyes, winning a national title in 2002. Tressel became Akron’s vice president of strategic engagement in 2012. In a release from the school, Tressel is referred to as the school’s Vice President for Student Success. As one of the conditions of a showcause sanction by the NCAA, Tressel was banned from coaching for five years. Tressel plans to have current Akron football coach Terry Bowden and men’s basketball coach Keith Dambrot as guest lecturers.

team only a week after being traded to Texas. Joe Nathan struck out the side in the ninth for his 37th save in 39 chances.

The Rangers expected for him to throw around 65 pitches, and he threw 66, 42 for strikes. Chris Carter walked and scored on Dominguez’s 17th homer in the second. There were 11 pitches in the first, including a hard shot by L.J. Hoes that ricocheted off Blackley’s foot toward the third base line. Jurickson Profar made a barehanded grab and threw in one motion to retire Hoes. Astros manager Bo Porter quickly came out to unsuccessfully argue with umpire Lance Barksdale that Profar’s throw pulled first baseman Mitch Moreland off the bag.

of challenge Porter may have won. Max Stassi, called up from Double-A Corpus Christi earlier Tuesday, made his major league debut as the designated hitter and got a single in the fifth. He will also remember what happened after his first major league hit. A comebacker by Marwin Gonzalez was snagged by reliever Jason Frasor, who turned and made a high throw that went off shortstop Andrus’ glove and caught by second baseman Ian Kinsler backing up the play. But Stassi, apparently thinking he was already out, wandered off second base and was tagged by Kinsler. Stassi had another single in the seventh.

Ex-players suing NFL Films over use of footage
Ten former NFL players, including five Hall of Famers, are asking the league and its production arm to pay up. On Tuesday, a group that includes Curley Culp and John Riggins filed a classaction suit in U.S. District Court in New Jersey to reclaim payment for the use of their names, images and likenesses from film footage they say was used on NFL Network and to promote the league without the ex-players’ consent. The other Hall of Famers suing are Dave Casper, Tom Mack and Ron Yary. “NFL Films has never obtained authorization from retired players to use their images to be, as NFL Films puts it, the ‘backbone’ of the NFL Network,” according to the 81-page filing obtained by The Associated Press. “NFL Films’ conduct goes far beyond simply use of images without consent. It continues to this day to strike licensing business deals, in New Jersey, affirmatively, and falsely, misrepresenting that it has obtained all former players’ consent to appear in its promotional materials. The NFL does likewise.” The complaint against the NFL and NFL Productions notes that in 1993, all players’ contracts began to include clauses that granted the NFL authority to use the names, images and likenesses of players to publicize and promote the league. They claim it was never included with the players in the suit. The filing also contends that the league and NFL Productions violated state laws regarding unfair competition and rights of publicity, as well as a federal statute claim-
Rockies 5, Phillies 3 PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Troy Tulowitzki and Wilin
ing the league and its production arm were unjustly enriched by improperly using the ex-players. The other former players listed on the suit are Mike Bass, Willie Buchanon, Roman Gabriel, Joe Kapp and Phil Villapiano. It also asks that former players who have opted out of the Dryer v. NFL lawsuit, their heirs and assigns be included in this case. Though there is no stated sum in the complaint, it notes that according to published reports in 2002, NFL Films was making $50 million per year in licensing revenue, which applied only to third parties such as television networks. “It did not include the far greater value to NFL Films, and the NFL itself, to use NFL Films footage to promote the NFL’s global brand, and to form the ‘backbone’ of the NFL Network,” the suit said. The NCAA and video game company Electronic Arts are facing similar suits in California. This case cites a recent ruling in California that determined EA Sports could not use First Amendment protections to defend its actions.

Rosario homered to lead the Colorado Rockies past the Philadelphia Phillies 53 on Tuesday night. Jorge De La Rosa (13-6) pitched into the seventh to win his third straight start. Dexter Fowler also drove in a run to help the Rockies jump out to a 5-0 lead. Rockies third baseman Nolan Arenado made a fantastic backhanded stop and in-the-air throw to first in the seventh inning to rob Jimmy Rollins of a runscoring hit. Rafael Betancourt tossed a scoreless ninth for his 16th save. Tyler Cloyd (2-3) allowed five runs in six innings in his first major league start since June 12. Recalled after last night’s game to make the start, Cloyd was coming off consecutive complete games in the minors. Against the Rockies, Cloyd was hit hard
from the start. Tulowitzki’s second homer in two games was a two-run shot deep into the left-field seats. Phillies outfielder Dom Brown never moved as the ball soared high over his head. Michael Cuddyer followed Tulowitzki’s 22nd homer with a double. He moved up on a grounder and scored on a wild pitch to make it 3-0 in the first inning. Fowler added an RBI single in the second, and Rosario extended his hitting streak to 11 games with a two-out drive in the third. Staked to a 5-0 lead, De La Rosa allowed three runs in the third. Chase Utley had an RBI single to right and Brown added a sacrifice fly. De La Rosa walked three and struck out three in 6 1⁄3 innings.

Vick

Jacksonville (0-2). Foles has been sacked six times in two games, and has a quarterback rating of 65.5, after showing flashes as a rookie last season while Vick was injured. Vick played in just 10 games last season, while Foles topped 340 yards twice as a rookie. The Eagles (1-1) are coming off a 4-12 season, coach Andy Reid’s last, and haven’t made the playoffs since they won the NFC East at the end of the 2010 season. “We had a good amount of tape, a good amount of us seeing them on the field,” Kelly said. “And seeing them in a lot of different situations, and wanted to put a guy in place, if we could, in enough time to get us to prepare the season.” Kelly has only shown flashes of his up-tempo offense in the first two preseason games and defenses already seem tired and confused while the Eagles are moving the ball with ease. The first-team offense led by Vick and Foles has four touchdowns on eight-plus possessions in two games. One drive ended with an end-zone interception and two others ended with fumbles. Behind Foles will be Matt
Barkley, a rookie from Southern Cal. “The competitor in me, you always want to be the one on the field playing,” Barkley said. “At the same time, I love Mike. We’ve gone about it the right way. We’ve kept our great friendship and we’ve pushed each other. I’m proud of him. I’m going to do anything I can to help him become the best quarterback possible. “I’m excited for him. Nothing changes in my preparation. I’m going to prepare the same way.” Vick had a breakout year under Reid in 2010, leading the Eagles to the division title, winning The Associated Press Comeback Player of the Year award and starting in the Pro Bowl. But he’s battled injuries and inconsistency the last two years. Now 33, Vick sustained a concussion in Week 10 last year and Reid decided to let Foles play the rest of the way because the Eagles were in last place. Vick returned to start the season finale against the New York Giants because Foles was hurt. He finished the year with 2,362 yards passing, 12 touchdowns and 10 interceptions. He lost five fumbles. “I think Mike is ahead right now. I think Nick made it very difficult,” Kelly said.

Browns name Weeden starting quarterback BEREA, Ohio (AP) — Brandon Weeden had a lot to prove. Before his second NFL season began, he had to convince some teammates, a new coaching staff and front office and many skeptical Cleveland fans he deserved to start. He desperately wanted to be their quarterback, the guy. On Tuesday, Weeden’s efforts were rewarded. Browns coach Rob Chudzinski named Weeden his starter, an announcement that erased any uncertainty — and there wasn’t much — that the secondyear QB would be behind center for the Sept. 8 season opener against Miami. Weeden has spent the past few months doing everything he possibly could to win the job, and he did — fair and square. “Brandon has earned this,” Chudzinski said, “and that’s extremely important to me that he did. He has gained my complete trust. He has gained his teammates’ complete trust and this organization’s trust. We’re all behind him and we’ll all be behind him to support him.” Weeden, who survived a bumpy rookie season, took the news that he had beaten out veteran Jason Campbell in typical stride. Unlike a year ago, when he was essentially anointed as Cleveland’s No. 1 from the moment he was selected in the first round of the draft, Weeden had to fight for this. He immersed himself in the playbook to learn the Browns’ new system and performed at a high level during spring practices and summer training camp. If there was any doubt, Weeden removed by completing 18 of 25 passes for 229 yards with three
touchdowns and no interceptions in two preseason games. Case closed. “I’ve taken the steps that I needed to take to better myself,” Weeden said. “But I have to keep continuing to work, keep continuing to do the things that I’ve done all along up until this point to become that player that I want to be. I’m not satisfied. I feel like I have a lot of work to do, and that’s kind of my mindset moving forward.” While there was widespread speculation outside of Cleveland’s locker room about whether Weeden should remain the starter, the Browns were certain he was up to the challenge. “I can’t really say I had any doubt,” wide receiver Josh Gordon said. “It seems as though he’s the guy who’s been here. He’s shown improvement ever since he got here, every day, every week, his commitment and work ethic. He’s definitely stepped up into that leadership role that everybody expects him to be. He’s doing a great job and we’re glad to have him. “I’ve got 100 percent faith in him.” Chudzinski does as well. The 29-year-old Weeden has impressed his coach with every aspect of his game — on and off the field. “I have been very pleased with how he has gone out,” Chudzinski said. “He has taken the opportunity, seized the opportunity and produced. So I have been pleased from that standpoint and I think that he has garnered a lot of respect from, not only me, not only the coaching staff and the organization but from his teammates, as well.”
Local briefs: Roswell boys down Clovis in opener
CLOVIS — There are certain ways teams want to begin a season and falling behind 2-0 in the first 20 minutes of action isn’t one of them. Fortunately for the Roswell boys soccer team, its finish was better than its start. The Coyotes (1-0) scored four unanswered goals to come away with a 4-2 win over Clovis in the season opener for both teams on Tuesday. Trailing 2-0 in the 20th minute, Fernando Sanchez put Roswell on the board with a goal. Roughly 20 minutes into the second half, Sanchez set up Brighton Pope for a goal that tied the game at 2. The Coyotes took the lead for good when Victor Garcia assisted on another Sanchez goal, and Garcia put the game away a few minutes later with a goal of his own. “It was amazing for us to come back,” Roswell coach James Vernon said regarding his team’s play after falling in a 2-0 hole. “It took us about 30 minutes to get used to (the artifi-

and, following a few near misses, took the lead in the 18th minute. With possession on the left sideline, Caitlyn Schmidt and Bethany Alvarez did a give-andgo which set Alvarez up with a good look at goal from within 15 feet. Her shot was deflected by Alamogordo’s Kayla Ross, but she came away with the carom and cashed in, giving the Rockets a lead they wouldn’t relinquish. Banda kept it at 1-0 in the 34th minute when she made a spectacular diving save on a breakaway by Adela Trevino. In the 50th minute, Goddard pushed its lead to 2-0 when August Bush hit a cross that Bianca Morones turned into a goal. The play of the game came eight minutes later on a Goddard corner kick. In the 58th minute, Danielle Hubbard lined up to take a corner kick from the left corner and drilled a high-arcing shot to the opposite post. Instead of finding a teammate’s head, the ball continued to bend until it snuck into the corner for an improbable goal that made it 3-0. Alamogordo made it 3-1 with a goal in the 75th minute, but Goddard sealed the win with Morones’ second goal of the game. Following the game in which three different girls scored and a handful of others nearly did, Elizondo said she was excited about the potential of her offense in 2013. “(Having that many people be able to score) is great, because it is like, ‘Who are they going to pick?’” she said. “That is what I have always wanted. This team I have this year is probably one of the better teams I have had simply because I have a lot of girls who can score. “Other teams can’t just hone in on one or two girls, because they can all score.” l.foster@rdrnews.com

Roswell (1-0), learning a new formation, kept things close in the first half before the Eagles took control in the final 40 minutes. Coyote coach Samantha Ward said that her team played hard. “Well, the first half it was 1-0,” she said. “We had a great first half and we came out and worked really, really hard.

said. “I think we all tend to look at the glass half full instead of half empty. But now the reality is there and I’m kind of glad we’ve gotten to where it is finalized.” It gives Fox a chance to finalize “Plan B” for a team listed at most Vegas sports books as the favorite to win the Super Bowl. Miller is the best player on the Broncos defense — the second pick of the 2011 draft, the NFL’s 2011 Defensive Rookie of the Year and runner-up last season for the league’s Defensive Player of the Year. He had 18 1⁄2 sacks last season and 30 over his two years. Likely to take his spot at the
the murder charge. “I’m appalled,” Hicks said after the hearing. “This is not supposed to happen in this community.” In court, Hicks said Luna was sitting in the back seat of a car when he pulled the trigger on a .22 caliber revolver and shot Lane once in the back. Hicks said Jones was driving the vehicle and Edwards was in the passenger seat. Edwards has had prior run-ins with the law and came to court Friday — apparently after the shooting — to sign documents related to his juvenile probation. “I believe this man is a threat to the community and should not be let out,” Hicks said as he requested no bond for Edwards. “He thinks it’s all a joke.” The two younger boys were held without bond; bond was set at $1 million for Jones. Before the hearing, Edwards’ father, James Edwards Sr., said he knew where his son was 95 percent of the time and would call or text him. The 15-year-old was involved in wrestling and football, his father said, and was trying to forge the same sort of athletic career as Lane. He was heading into his sophomore year in high school. Edwards Sr. said Luna was also like a son to him. Luna’s mother, Jennifer Luna, said her son likes to play basketball at a local court and play on his iPhone and
rush linebacker position is Shaun Phillips, a 10-year veteran the Broncos signed in free agency during the offseason. Others in the mix in a juggled linebacker corps include Nate Irving, Wesley Woodyard and Danny Trevathan. Another linebacker, Stewart Bradley, had emerged as a front-runner over Irving at middle linebacker during training camp, but he hurt his left wrist in a preseason game Saturday night and underwent surgery. On Tuesday, the Broncos signed 12th-year veteran Paris Lenon, who played ahead of Bradley in Arizona last year. “We’re going to have to have
Xbox. “I know my son. He is a good kid,” she said. Lane played baseball at East Central University in Ada, 85 miles east of Duncan, and had been visiting his girlfriend and her parents in Duncan after he and his girlfriend returned to the U.S. from Australia about a week ago. Duncan police Chief Dan Ford has said the boys wanted to overcome a boring end to their summer vacation — classes in Duncan resumed Tuesday — and that Jones told officers they were bored and killed Lane for “the fun of it.” Family and friends on two continents were mourning Lane, who gave up pursuit of an Australian football career to pursue his passion for baseball, an American pastime. His girlfriend, Sarah Harper, tearfully laid a cross at a streetside memorial in Duncan, while half a world away, an impromptu memorial grew at the home plate he protected as a catcher on his youth team. “We just thought we’d leave it,” Harper said as she visited the memorial in Duncan. “This is his final spot.” His old baseball team, Essendon, scheduled a memorial game for Sunday to raise funds for Lane’s parents as they worked to have their boy’s remains sent home. Meanwhile, Essendon Catholic School, where Lane was a student, planned to remember him at a memorial Mass in November.

guys play better,” Fox said. “Everybody is going to have to step up. I know it’s ‘Next man up,’ but he’s a hard man to replace.” Miller will be sidelined for the season opener against Baltimore, then at the New York Giants, home against Philadelphia and Oakland, at Dallas and home against Jacksonville. His return coincides with Manning’s first game in Indianapolis since he last put on a Colts uniform. “The guys around him have to play better,” Fox said. “The guys on the other side of the ball have to play better. That will be the challenge to our team.”
to suspend Dempster. Girardi had hoped for a suspension long enough to make Dempster miss a turn. “I think I made my feelings pretty clear then,” Girardi said after the suspension was announced. Dempster threw one pitch behind A-Rod’s knees and two more inside during the second inning. Then his 3-0 pitch struck Rodriguez’s left elbow pad and ricocheted off his back. “You don’t throw at a guy four times,” Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia said. “He violated every code in every way.” Dempster said he will never stop pitching inside. “That’s a real important part of pitching to any hitter, especially a big power hitter,” he said. Girardi sprinted onto the field, screaming at O’Nora for not ejecting the pitcher. Girardi was tossed as the benches and bullpens emptied, and Rodriguez homered off Dempster to spark a sixth-inning rally that lifted New York to a 9-6 win. “That baseball is a weapon. It’s not a tennis
ball. Or it’s not an Incrediball that’s soft. It’s a weapon, and it can do a lot of damage to someone’s life,” Girardi said before a doubleheader against Toronto. “And that’s why I was so upset about it. You can express your opinion and be upset with someone, but you just can’t start throwing baseballs at people. I mean, it’s scary.” Girardi said his profane rant at O’Nora probably was the angriest he’s been on a ball field. Rodriguez was suspended for 211 games on Aug. 5 for violating baseball’s drug and labor agreements but is playing while he appeals. Red Sox pitcher John Lackey criticized the rules last week for allowing A-Rod to play. Girardi said prior to the announcement that if Dempster wasn’t punished, it would make Rodriguez “open season for people, and that can’t happen. It’s not fair. If a player is suspended for throwing at someone, they’re going to get their appeal. Are we just going to throw that out, too?” Asked later if the level of penalty would make it open season, he responded: “That’s my concern. We’ll find out. I sure hope not.”

Meet Sheila Turnage Her background
Sheila Turnage won a 2013 Newbery Honor Book award for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Three Times Lucky.â&#x20AC;? This is her first novel for kids.
Learning to tell stories Sheila said her experience â&#x20AC;&#x153;just shows how important teachers are.â&#x20AC;? Her teacher could have discouraged her instead of making her excited. Many members of her parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; families were great storytellers, she said. She learned from them. She has written many magazine articles, especially travel stories. She has also written adult-level nonfiction books and one picture book for kids.

Advice for kids â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you want to be a writer, just jump in there and do it. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do it wrong. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing it for yourself, nobodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be grading it. Write about what you really, really care about.â&#x20AC;? In the picture book â&#x20AC;&#x153;Trout the Magnificent,â&#x20AC;? a fish asks the animal council for permission to fly. But problems arise that take Trout on great adventures.

For some, the beach is a place to bask in the sun. For Kelly Slater, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a place to battle the waves. Slater is a super surfer, one of the all-time best. Where many have fallen, he has twisted, spun, flipped and maintained his balance in the foaming sea. Slater won his first world title at age 20 in 1992 and his 11th at age 39 in 2011. He also has done charity work, appeared in a few films, and been honored by the U.S. House of Representatives as an â&#x20AC;&#x153;ambassador for his sport and as a role model.â&#x20AC;? Talented youngsters keep surfacing in the surfing world, but Slater doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t shy away from competition. He still answers the call of the roaring ocean and takes on the giant waves.

Sheila decided to become a writer when she was in the first grade. After she wrote her first story in class, the teacher said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is an excellent story, and you are an excellent writer.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I absolutely believed her,â&#x20AC;?

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE
DEAR ABBY: I am a twice-divorced woman who has never been good at choosing the men in my life. Two years ago, I met a man who is 12 years my senior. He is sweet, thoughtful and caring, and would do just about anything for me. What started as companionship has turned into a full-blown love affair. The problem is that he is married. His wife is not well. She has a chronic disease and other medical problems. The way he cares for her is what attracted me to him in the first place. He spends what time he can with me, but mostly he is there
for his wife. I am OK with the situation, as I don’t want him to leave her for me. I have tried breaking it off with him, but he gets me to take him back, saying he doesn’t know what he would do without me in his life. He is very strong-willed. Abby, I feel like I’m in the background waiting for her to die so I can take her place as his wife, and I hate this feeling. What should I do? GUILTY IN KENTUCKY DEAR GUILTY: Your feelings are well-founded. You ARE waiting in the background for this man’s wife to die. But what if she doesn’t? You say you have never been good at choosing men, and I have to agree. Please don’t think I am unsympathetic, but it’s time to ask yourself why you chose to get involved with someone who isn’t available except for a few stolen moments. If marriage is what you really want, your priority should be to find a man who doesn’t have the kind of previous commitment this
one does.
COMICS #####
DEAR ABBY: I have recently been contacted by an old boyfriend who is now incarcerated. He claims I was the love of his life and he thought about me often after our breakup. He is now asking me to become his pen pal and send him money occasionally. I have bitter memories of our relationship, so it’s hard to believe he cared for me as much as he says. He is begging me not to “abandon” him or forget about him, but I don’t want the role of pen pal and provider. How do I share my thoughts without hurting his feelings? RELUCTANT IN CALIFORNIA DEAR RELUCTANT: If you are smart, you won’t respond to him at all. I have printed letters from more than one prison guard who wanted to warn kindhearted, gullible women that inmates send multiple “solicitations” of this kind in the hope that SEVERAL of the recipients will send money.
You are not responsible for this man’s well-being. Since your breakup, your lives have obviously gone in polar opposite directions. My advice is to keep it that way, for your own sake.

DEAR ABBY: What is the proper way to dispose of leftover milk in your cereal bowl? To dump it out is wasteful, to spoon it up like soup seems a bit much, and to drink it right from the bowl seems rather cat-like. Does the answer differ if you are in your own kitchen vs. a restaurant or other residence? GOT MILK IN SAN FRANCISCO DEAR GOT MILK: If you’re in a restaurant, you should not lap liquid from the bowl. If you’re at home — anything goes. And if you have so much milk left in your bowl after the cereal has been consumed, you are pouring too much in and need to adjust the amount.

FROM HELOISE
KING FEATURES SYNDICATE Dear Heloise: Could you please reprint the Heloise recipe for CINNAMON BUTTER that was in our newspaper and that I forgot to save? Thank you very much. Judy, via email
Today’s Crossword Puzzle
Happy to share this Heloise recipe for all readers to enjoy. It is such a tasty addition to your morning toast, bagel, waffles or pancakes. You just need the following ingredients: 1/2 pound of butter or margarine (not diet) 3 tablespoons of cinnamon 1/2 pound of powdered sugar Mix all of the ingredients using an electric mixer. Once well blended, place the butter in a container or old margarine tub, and store in the refrigerator. For even more delicious, favorite recipes like Heloise’s Olive Nut Dip and Heloise’s Apricot Preserves (one of my favorites), order my All-Time Favorite Recipes pamphlet. To receive one, send $5 and a long, self-addressed, stamped (66 cents) envelope to: Heloise/All-Time, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001. Cinnamon-sugar is a great addition to French toast. Combine 3 cups of sugar with 1/2 cup of ground cinnamon. Store this mixture in a container with your spices. Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: After replacing my stove’s drip pans for the umpteenth time, I had an epiphany. I was setting my selfcleaning oven to clean overnight, and I placed the grimy drip pans inside. In the morning, I just had to wipe them down, and they were good as new. — Natalie Schuldt, via email Readers, be sure to check YOUR oven’s manual. You can leave oven racks in and place the electric range drip pans inside the oven when selfcleaning. But do this only if your manual recommends it, and be aware that the racks may change color and be hard to slide out. Heloise ##### Dear Heloise: Being a military wife, we move often. I have learned that no two ovens cook at the same temperature. Familiar recipes need new cook times. When making a meal or baked good, start checking it 20 minutes earlier than you expect it to be done. Keep checking every five minutes to ensure that you catch the proper cook time. Once you have that recipe’s time, you can adjust cook times for your other recipes. Kimberly J., Abilene, Texas Dear Readers: Cleaning out my spice cabinet, I found a jar of annatto seed (also known as achiote seed) and couldn’t remember why I’d bought it! Used in Latin American and Mexican cooking, it adds rich yellow and orange colors to foods. The seeds can be added to soups and stews, and rice, pork or fish dishes, providing a peppery flavor. Try some in your next dish! Heloise #####
Dear Heloise: I was making a meat-salad spread for lunch and was totally out of mayonnaise. I grabbed a bottle of ranch salad dressing, and it worked wonderfully. It was also less expensive, so I will use it instead of mayonnaise in the future. Kathi White, Hutchinson, Kan.

estate investment trusts — investment companies that focus on buying and managing real estate. An index that tracks REITs, as real estate investment trusts are commonly known, is down nearly 8 percent.
Investors also have broader economic concerns. It is unclear how the possible ending of the Fed’s bond-buying program will affect growth.

NEW YORK (AP) — It’s been a chilly August for the stock market. At the start of the month, the Dow Jones industrial average and Standard & Poor’s 500 index hit alltime highs. Now the market is down 4 percent from its peak, and August is on track to be the Dow’s worst month since May 2012. On Tuesday, the Dow posted in its fifth straight day of losses, the first time that’s happened this year. While the S&P 500 and Nasdaq composite index did rise modestly, it was the first time in four days those indices have seen green. The stock market slide in the last couple of weeks reflects a shift in investor strategy that began in the bond market and spilled into stocks. The spillover then mixed with lingering concerns about the U.S. economy, leading to the last several weeks of volatility, market observers say. “The bond market is the catalyst for this selloff,” says Quincy Krosby, market strategist with Prudential Financial. While most of the selloff occurred in the last couple weeks, it had its origins months ago. Up until early June, bond funds had been one

of Wall Street’s more popular investments — particularly among average investors. More than $1.2 trillion was socked away into bond mutual funds and bond exchange-traded funds between 2009 and 2012, according to TrimTabs. “People were just throwing money at bonds, even at low rates,” says Julius Ridgway, an investment adviser with Mississippibased fir m Medley & Brown. That was before Federal Reserve Chair man Ben Bernanke said the central bank could pull back on its $85 billion-a-month bondpurchase program, which was designed to keep bond yields low. Ber nanke made bond investors nervous in midJune by saying that the Fed, one of the bond market’s biggest customers in the last several years, may scale back its buying. Investors pulled more than $65.8 billion out of bond funds in June, according to mutual fund research firm Lipper, the largest amount ever on a cash basis and the second largest outflow in percentage terms since the financial crisis in 2008. Investors pulled an additional $22.5 billion out of bond funds in July, accord-

ing to Lipper. With so many investors exiting bonds — particularly T reasuries — at the same time, bond prices declined sharply. The yield on the benchmark 10-year U.S. T reasury note has climbed from 1.63 percent in early May to as high as 2.88 percent this week. Yields climb as prices fall. “As the 10-year yield has inched higher, the selling has led to more selling,” Krosby said. This exodus out of bond funds has touched the stock market in two different ways, investors say, starting with dividend-paying stocks. Shares in industries such as utilities, pharmaceuticals and telecommunications are often purchased because they provide a higher -than-normal dividend. As Treasury yields rise, it makes all dividendpaying stocks less attractive to investors. That’s because T reasuries can provide a similar retur n with significantly less risk. Dividend-paying stocks have been hurt the past month. The S&P Utilities index is down nearly 5 percent while the S&P Telecommunications index is down 4 percent. Another type of investment that got hit in recent weeks was real

“Bernanke is going to try to make this transition as smooth as possible, but we just don’t know how much (the bond buying) is going to be scaled back,” Krosby says. “And the biggest enemy to the market is uncertainty.”
Investor worries have also been heightened by bad news from retailers. Wal-Mart, Kohl’s, Macy’s and Saks all cut their investment outlooks for the year last week — raising concerns that the American consumer, who makes up roughly 70 percent of the U.S. economy, might be pulling back.
On Tuesday, the S&P 500 index rose 6.29 points, or 0.4 percent, to close at 1,652.35. The Nasdaq composite rose 24.50 points, or 0.7 percent, to 3,613.59. The Dow fell 7.75 points, or 0.05 percent, to 15,002.99.
Sarian says more turbulence will come until investors get clarity from the Fed about its bondbuying program.
“Expect to see more volatility or see a shortter m pull back,” Sarian says.

NEW YORK (AP) — Barnes & Noble says it plans to keep making its Nook electronic readers and will focus on offering content to its customers, even as its firstquarter net loss nearly doubled. The quarterly results came as the struggling bookseller’s chairman said he is abandoning his bid for the company’s retail stores. Shares tumbled over 12 percent. Barnes & Noble is reviewing its strategy in the wake of CEO William Lynch’s departure in June and continuing declines in Nook revenue, a unit the company has invested heavily in. In a call with investors, Barnes & Noble Michael Huseby, president of Barnes & Noble and CEO of its Nook business, said the 4-year-old Nook business has had some success, with 10 million devices sold and a 22 percent share in the e-book market. But he said there have been missteps. “We have faced an increasingly challenging competitive landscape and, as it turned out, we were overly optimistic the past two holiday seasons, forecasting demand for our Nook devices falling far short of our expectations,” he said in a call with investors. In June, Barnes & Noble said it would explore making its color Nook devices with a third-party manufacturer. On Tuesday Huseby elaborated, saying the company continues to design and develop both black-and-white and color Nook devices, with at least one new Nook due out for the holiday season and more products in development. He said the company already works with thirdparty manufacturers for parts of the device such as screens and microchips, and there are opportunities to expand those relationships. He declined to give any specifics on a possible partner for the color devices, however, saying “we will report our progress on these issues at the appropriate time. Revenue at stores open at least one year fell 9.1 percent. The measure is a key retail metric because it excludes volatility from stores that opened or closed during the year. Excluding the Nook, the measure fell 7.2 percent.
While stocks have declined noticeably in the last few weeks, it’s important to keep things in perspective, says Greg Sarian, managing director of the Sarian Group at HighTower Advisors and a certified financial planner. The S&P 500 is up 16 percent this year while the Dow is up 15 percent. In any nor mal year, such returns would be considered respectable for a retirement portfolio.
