Commissioners deny rezoning request again BY RANDAL SEYLER RECORD CITY EDITOR

The Planning and Zoning Commission once again denied a zoning change request, which would allow a dispatch and maintenance facility to be built within the city limits, by a vote of 4-2. The property owners, Bill and Mary Shepard, will appeal the commissioners’ decision on Thursday, and the matter will move on to the full City Council in September. The Shepards want to change the zoning of their property at 1602 East Second St. The zone change

was requested to allow the property to be used for storage of oil field service and rental equipment at the site, according to a meeting abstract provided to the councilors in their meeting packets. A buyer for the property wants to create a new dispatch and maintenance facility in Roswell, which will be a building and yard to park and maintain vehicles between oil field trips on a daily shift basis, and to rent equipment to third parties such as oil field lighting, generators, pumps and other outdoor field hardware consistent with I-1

zoning, according to a memo from Manatt & Company Realtors, who represent the Shepards. Several residents who were against the rezoning were in the audience and they spoke their minds before the commission. “I have my home and business east of this property, and his property doesn’t flood because it drains onto my property, and everyone else’s property,” resident Diana Tuttle said. On July 31, the planning commissioners voted 7-0 to deny a request for a zone

Kim Wiggins, left, and Dorothy Peterson were honored at the Historical Society for Southeast New Mexico's 33rd annual Heritage Award Dinner at the Roswell Civic Center. Each year, the historical society honors members of the community who have made a profoundly positive impact on the community. Peterson and Wiggins were honored for their contributions on both documenting the local culture as well as their community involvement. The dinner also serves as the primary fundraiser for operating costs for the historical museum and archive. Wiggins and Peterson both donated artwork that was auctioned off at the event. A Wiggins piece raised $5,200 for the museum.

NM panel discusses future of Gila River

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — New Mexico is no closer to deciding what to do with its share of water from the Gila River after experts and advocates weighed in Tuesday on more than a dozen proposals that call for everything from building dams and reservoirs along the river to boosting conservation among farmers and residents. The Interstate Stream Commission has to make a decision by the end of the year. The problem is none of

the proposals have risen to the top as the best option despite more than 200 meetings, volumes of public comment and $3 million spent on studies over the past decade. “At the present time, the staff has found no showstoppers,” said Estevan Lopez, the commission’s director. He said it wouldn’t be prudent for the commission to make any preliminary determinations before the

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A U.S. Department of Defense program that loans local law enforcement agencies surplus military gear has sent $10.2 million worth of weapons, helicopters and armored trucks to New Mexico, according to an audit of the equipment. The audit by the Pentagon office responsible for the 1033 program shows that the equipment went to 32 agencies. Departments as small as the Clovis Police Department and the New Mexico State University Police received massive MineResistant Ambush Protected vehicles, or MRAPs, while San Juan County Sheriff’s Office was granted the use of a $4 million helicopter to help patrol a 5,200 square-mile region in the Four Corners area. The Albuquerque Police Department also received

weapons from the program, documents show. The document was obtained by The Associated Press through a public records request. The surplus equipment program is under review by the Obama administration in the after math of the police response to unrest in Ferguson, Missouri, following the shooting death a black 18-year -old by a white police officer. President Barack Obama said images of well-armed police confronting protesters made it useful to review how local law enforcement agencies have used federal grants that permit them to obtain heavier armaments. Law enforcement agencies in New Mexico said the extra military gear helps them in their work. “We use it simply as a See GEAR, Page A3

FBI wanted NM sheriff’s badge for DNA

ESPANOLA (AP) — Federal agents were looking for a New Mexico sheriff’s badge during a May raid to test it for DNA in connection with an encounter with a motorist, newly released court documents said. According to unsealed court documents, FBI agents wanted Rio Arriba County Sherif f Thomas Rodella’s badge and silver handgun when they searched his house and car, the Albuquerque Journal reports. Rodella and his son were indicted this month for conspiracy to violate a motorist’s civil rights during an offduty traffic stop in March. An indictment says the men engaged “in a high-speed pursuit and unreasonable seizure” of the driver, identified in the court papers only as M.T. The sheriff was not in uniform when he jumped out of his Jeep SUV

EPA takes comment on permit for Four Corners plant

NENAHNEZAD (AP) — The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency is seeking comment on a proposed permit for a northwestern New Mexico power plant. The operator of the Four Corners Power Plant near Far mington plans to upgrade two units at the coal-fired plant to reduce nitrogen oxide emissions. The EPA says the installation of what’s known as selective catalytic reduction technology will result in an increase in sulfuric acid emissions. That increase means the power plant is required to get a permit from the EPA As of 10:45 p.m., Tuesday, there were 0.06 inches of rain in the gauge at the Daily Record.

armed with a silver revolver, court papers said. The indictment says Rodella shoved his badge in the motorist’s face. According to an FBI affidavit used to obtain a warrant to search Rodella’s home, an agent reviewed Tafoya’s booking photograph from the Rio Arriba County jail “which shows a reddish, swollen area under his right eye.” “This is consistent with Tafoya’s statement that Sheriff Rodella hit him in the face with his badge, and then ground the badge in his right eye and against his cheek,” the affidavit said. The new documents do not indicate if anything was seized in the search. FBI agents raided Rodella’s home in June just hours after he lost the Democratic nomination for Rio Arriba County sheriff to challenger James

Court eyes tossing charges in NM van shooting

SANTA FE (AP) — A proposed state appeals court order would dismiss charges against a Tennessee woman whose van was chased and shot at by a New Mexico State Police of ficer during a chaotic

Lujan by 200 votes. Lujan was a deputy Rodella had fired. Meanwhile, the Santa Fe New Mexican reports that Rodella has asked New Mexico State Police Chief Pete Kassettas to investigate possible misconduct by Rio Arriba County employees. Reserve Deputy Quintin McShan, a spokesman for the sheriff’s office, said the office turned over a possible criminal matter to state police on Monday but said he couldn’t identify the targets of the investigation. Rio Arriba County commissioners gave Rodella until Tuesday to step down as sheriff before they would ask “higher authorities” to remove him from office. But Rodella has said through his lawyer, Robert Gorence, that he will not step down.

October traffic stop. The Albuquerque Journal reports that a New Mexico Court of Appeals judge proposed Monday tossing the criminal case against Oriana Farrell. Last year, a New Mexico State Police officer shot at Farrell’s van carrying her five children after she twice sped off and was stopped by another of ficer for speeding outside of Taos. Video of the shooting gained national attention and the officer was later fired. Farrell, of Memphis, Tenn., is facing charges of fleeing an of ficer, child abuse and other charges.

The Taos district attorney can challenge the appeals court’s proposal.

Report: New Mexico pedestrian deaths rank high

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — A new report says New Mexico was the nation’s fifth most deadly state per capita for pedestrians in 2011 with alcohol as a key factor. The Albuquerque Journal reports that an analysis by the Mid-Region Council of Governments released last week found that New Mexico reported 41 pedestrian fatalities statewide in 2011.

change from commercial C-2 District to industrial I-1 or a special use for outside storage in a C-2 District. However, during the July meeting, the commissioners met in closed session, which meant they had to meet and revote on the matter. City Attorney William Zarr was on hand Tuesday night to oversee the meeting and to ensure the commissioners followed the Open Meetings Act. During the July meeting, the commissioners went into a closed session to discuss the matter, which they are allowed to do as an adjudicative body, but they did not state subject matter of the closed session, and when they returned from closed session, they didn’t make a motion to resume the regular meeting but just came out continued the meeting, Zarr said. “What they did was not in accordance with the Open Meetings Act, then that makes their actions not valid,” Zarr said. “It was my recommendation that they go back and do it again.” Commissioners David Storey and

RHS

Bruce Gwartney voted in favor of granting the change of zoning. Commissioners Riley Armstrong, Shirley Childress, Toby Gross and Eddie Carrillo voted against the change. Zarr instructed the commissioners that their findings should support the reasons provided to the commissioners by City Planner Marlin Johnson, whether for or against. Armstrong said he was against the change from Commercial to Industrial because there was already Commercial zoning in the area, and he did not think the requested usage fit into the current usage of properties in that area. “The protests also weighed heavily in my decision,” Armstrong said. The other dissenting commissioners concurred with Armstrong’s reasoning. Zoning Administrator Louis Jaramillo asked that the appeal documents be in his office by Thursday so he could begin the process. Bill Shepard said he was willing to work with any of the neighbors to

make the property rezoning acceptable to them.

“I am more than happy to put in detention ponds, and I will work with anyone,” he said. Shepard noted that the property is already zoned Commercial-2, and he noted the property is entitled to 26 different usages under the current zoning. He also noted that there is Industrial zoning along that same stretch of Highway 380. “This is the last piece of property on Highway 380 that is in the city limits,” Shepard noted.

“I think it has been convoluted in this case,” Armstrong said. “This is not any different than any other case of rezoning, yet we are being told it is different, and it’s not.”

“All this time, we’ve just made a motion and that has always been good enough,” Armstrong said. “Now all of a sudden, it’s different. So there you go.” City Editor Randal Seyler may be contacted at 622-7710, ext. 311, or reporter02@rdrnews.com.

activities have started, including volleyball and soccer, and cross-country also begins this week. “And of course, we have football beginning this Friday, with us hosting the Ruidoso Warriors,” Bolanos said. Although Ruidoso is a 4A school, Bolanos said Coyote fans shouldn’t expect Friday’s game to be a cakewalk. “They have a receiver who is getting attention from national recruiters, and they have some other good players as well,” Bolanos said. “We are going to have to work for it, and that is the beauty of competition.” Competition teaches students strategy and how to best an opponent, and competition in the school is not just found on the playing field, and it isn’t just the students who have to work toward improvement, Bolanos said. Roswell High received a “B” grade from the state this year, which was up from its three-year average of a “C” grade, the principal said. “I am really proud of our improvements, but I am also proud of our district.” Bolanos said no school in the Roswell Independent School District received an “F” this year, and he noted that Goddard High School had received an “A.” “Kudos to Goddard High

Critics say the equipment is contributing to the unnecessary militarization of local police. “This has nothing to do with policing. This has nothing to do with making communities safe,” said David Correia, an American Studies professor at the University of New Mexico. Under the program, the Defense Department sends out excess equipment on permanent loan to the police as long as the gear is maintained, accounted for and never sold or given away. Local agencies usually pay for shipping and maintenance. The most recent audit of equipment in New Mexico by the Defense Logistics Agency found that the state was com-

— it takes a lot of work to achieve a grade like that.” One of the areas Roswell High was graded an “F” in was graduation. “We need to get every freshman to stay until graduation,” Bolanos said. “And if we could tell their parents, ‘no, you can’t move away and take a better job, you have to stay here,’ we could keep them all,” he added, jokingly. Bolanos said the freshman students are kept together in the 300 wing of the high school during their early days as high schoolers, so they can become used to the new environment. “We repeat the message, ‘when you graduate, when you graduate,’ to the ninth-graders, because if we can keep them through that freshman year, there is a greater

chance they will graduate,” he said. Roswell High ranks in the top five schools in the state for improvement in its English learner students, Bolanos said. “Good things are happening at Roswell High School,” he said. “We are doing good things, especially for a school our size.” One of the most important skills high school students can pick up is reading, Bolanos said, so the program stresses teaching reading comprehension. “It isn’t like you remember, we aren’t reading Shakespeare, but we are reading,” he said. “Now it is more likely we are reading instructions on how to put together a lawnmower, or clippings from a newspaper, but we are stressing the importance

of reading.”

When students say to Bolanos they want to be a doctor or a lawyer, he asks them, “What books have you read lately? What books are you reading?”

Ultimately, Bolanos said it is the goal of the high school to not just create students, but to create successful, informed citizens who will be a benefit to their community and society as a whole. “It’s not just about giving them information, or even job skills,” Bolanos said. “It is a lear ning process — we teach them how to become involved in the community.”

last round of studies are complete in September and October. At stake are tens of millions of dollars in federal funding and a new source of water that some see as a rare opportunity to bring relief to the southwestern corner of this droughtstricken state. Under a 2004 settlement with Arizona, New Mexico is entitled to an average of 14,000 acre-feet of water a year, or about 4.5 billion gallons. Up to $128 million in federal funding would be available if the state builds a diversion system, or about half that if the state pursues other water projects in the region. While it’s still unclear how much the water would cost consumers in southwestern New Mexico, critics are concerned the bill for diverting the water would end up surpassing what federal subsidies are available and result in skyrocketing water bills for the region’s residents. “The evidence is mounting that a Gila River diversion doesn’t make fiscal sense and non-diversion alterna-

pliant with its recordkeeping of equipment and of ficials were praised for their oversight. Agencies in other states have been accused of misplacing equipment or poor record-keeping. The Department of Homeland Security and the Justice Department also have similar programs. A recent Albuquerque Journal analysis found the state received more than $28 million this year in Homeland Security grants, although state of ficials don’t have a breakdown how that money was spent. Los Lunas Police Chief Naithan Gurule said despite the concer n about weapons, he believes the program has helped save lives in his small city. In May, officers using an armored vehicle were able to shelter residents and officers while state police officers shot a man who was locked in a five-hour standoff with police, he said. Authorities say the man shot at police at least 70 times.

tives such as municipal and agricultural conservation, efficiency and sustainable groundwater management can meet our future water needs at a fraction of the cost,” Allyson Siwik of the Gila Conservation Coalition told commissioners Tuesday. An analysis done by the Bureau of Reclamation, the federal government’s water management agency, shows construction costs for diverting and piping the water as far south as Deming could total more than $500 million. Millions more would be needed each year for maintaining and operating the system.

Gila San Francisco Water Commissioner Vance Lee and Luna County Commissioner Javier Diaz told commissioners there’s a need for more water in southwestern New Mexico. Lee talked about the river going dry before reaching the canals that feed farms in the Verdin Valley, and Diaz said he gets calls from residents every week about their drinking water wells going dry.

If ISIS attacks again, what will US do? A4 Wednesday, August 27, 2014

The Obama administration is reportedly considering airstrikes in Syria against the terrorist group ISIS. The New York Times quotes “a top national security adviser” to the president as saying the U.S. is “‘not going to be restricted by borders’ to protect its interests...” What about American cities? If ISIS attacks one or more U.S. cities, as it has threatened to do, what then? We can’t bomb ourselves. How would we counter a nosedive in the stock market or the ensuing chaos and fear? The U.S. and Europe are vulnerable because of a false belief that we can somehow “convert” ideological and religious fundamentalists into pluralistic, tolerant people by exposing them to our way of life. So we let them into our nations. They build mosques, often with funding from Saudi Arabia, which practices and teaches a radical brand of

Islam known as Wahhabism, and allow them to set up Islamic schools, at least some of which teach hatred of Jews, Christians and Western values. France has seen its Muslim population explode to more than 8 million, and growing, according to the Gatestone Institute. It is the same in other European nations. While not all of these immigrants are terrorists, no doubt terrorists immigrated along with those looking for a better life, or were radicalized after arriving. Many Muslim immigrants have lived in isolation from Wester n cultures and values

which their faith has taught them to hate. According to the Pew Research Religion & Public Life Project, “the estimated share of legal Muslim immigrants entering the U.S. each year has roughly doubled, from about 5 percent of legal immigrants in 1992 to about 10 percent in 2012.” While it is a diverse group with not all holding to the same ideology or hatred of the West, there are enough radicals among them to constitute a clear and present danger. Groups like the Council on American–Islamic Relations (CAIR) intimidate some politicians and the media with cries of “Islamophobia” whenever anyone warns of the radicals’ agenda. As the Center for Immigration Studies points out, “Since the November 1990 assassination of Rabbi Meir Kahane by an Egyptian, the immigrant Muslim community has been associated with

a great number of violent incidents — all these even before the atrocities on Sept. 11, 2001. In its long history of immigration, the United States has never encountered so violent-prone and radicalized a community as the Muslims who have arrived since 1965.” So, if even a small number of Muslim immigrants — or American citizens who have been radicalized by imams — attack a shopping mall, killing and terrorizing shoppers, what will the president do? Will he treat it as a crime, “workplace violence,” or call it by its right name? Will civil libertarians have their way in opposing further surveillance of potential and actual radicals, deporting some and stripping others of their U.S. citizenship, if they travel to align themselves with ISIS fighters and try to return to the U.S.? Will they be allowed in? They should be

barred. These and many other questions must be answered before another attack, which our leaders repeatedly warn is coming. Why is it coming? Because presidents over several administrations have not done all they could to prevent it, preferring soft words to tough action. What will the current president do when the next attack comes? Will the public take matters into their own hands and fight back? Vigilantes are the last thing we need, but they could rise up, if government fails to perform its constitutional duty to protect us from enemies, foreign and domestic.

EDITORIAL

Our missing governor

While we were saddened to hear that incumbent Gov. Susana Martinez had declined to appear at a guber natorial debate at next month’s New Mexico Press Association convention, we weren’t surprised. We haven’t made up our minds to support Attorney General Gary King in his bid to replace Martinez — yet — but we were struck by the ring of truth in something he said Aug. 21 to our reporter. King suggested that one reason Martinez might have for passing up the debate is that the questions won’t be available to her in advance. Obviously, we don’t know Martinez’s reasons for avoiding the state’s newspapers, since she isn’t giving any. But King’s suggestion reminded us of our experiences with Martinez the last time she was a candidate, four years ago. In 2010, Democratic candidate for governor and then- Lt. Gov. Diane Denish visited Grant County several times, and stopped into the Daily Press newsroom on two separate occasions to discuss the issues and her campaign with our editor and publisher. Both conversations were informal and wide-ranging, and they were very helpful in understanding her plans for the future of the state. Since we hadn’t yet decided who to endorse, and in the interest of fairness, we contacted the Martinez campaign to offer her the same opportunity. The response? If we would submit our questions in writing in advance, Martinez would consider meeting with us. As it turns out, that prescient glimpse of Martinez’s style was an insight into her attitude toward both the media and the people of this state after her election, and the pattern has been repeated again during her campaign for re-election. We believe that Martinez’s refusal to debate her Democratic opponent in front of the state’s newspapers reflects a lack of respect, not just for us as reporters and editors covering the debate, but for you, the citizens of New Mexico. You deserve to know what your next governor really thinks about the issues facing all of us, and how that compares and contrasts with the views and reactions of his or her opponent. You deserve more than poll-tested answers to pre-submitted questions, or slick, misleading and expensive television ads. Unfortunately, it would appear that Martinez has decided that those things are the keys to her re-election, not honest communication with the citizens. However, it’s not too late for Martinez to prove us wrong. R EPRINTED F ROM T HE S ILVER C ITY D AILY PRESS

Editor’s note: The editorial staff at the Daily Record is hopeful that Martinez will agree to debate her opponent.

Dear editor, Bob Entrop hit the nail on the head with his article in the Roswell Daily Record titled “Roswell’s inferiority complex (Saturday, Aug.23).” Roswell has had this complex for many years and what is the result? The result is a self-fulfilled prophecy of ourselves — an inferiority complex. Even though we have some of the best of everything in the state, we also feel like we are second best! Why! We constantly hear that we can’t do this, or it costs too much, or we don’t have the staff, or that other city can do it but we don’t have the resources. As a result of hearing this all the time, what is the expected result? Simply stated: We can’t do

Oy vey! I’ve a baby boy! Ack! Honoring the privacy thing, I won’t use last names in this essay. John, a business associate and his wife Maria, recently celebrated the birth of their firstborn, a son. Congratulations are, of course, the first order, followed by some advice from yours truly gleaned by helping to bring my and the not so favorite exwife’s two wonderful sons into our world. Actually, this essay is for John and any other male reader of my words who have seen or are soon to experience the birth of their first son. In other words, women, this essay is a male thing for the simple reason, mothers have a natural grasp on this kid-raising thing, while we men stumble, gag, and grope our way through the process till our sons are at least, 30 years old. So John, now that your son is two weeks old, how’s that sleep thing working for you? Not so good you say? Well, get ready, your sleep time will get

shorter and shorter as the days and months proceed. You will lear n to cherish whenever possible, that fiveminute nap. All of a sudden going off to work will be even more of a blessing because you can use your mor ning and after noon breaks plus your lunch hour, I figure about an hour and a half, to catch up on sleep. A word of caution. Before you get home from work, give your eyes a good rubbing to give the appearance of, no sleep. Diaper changing, or referencing “gag” from the above paragraph.

breathing apparatus can be ordered through any environmental outfit. Changing diapers on baby boys, I developed the following technique. Place the little guy on his stomach while changing a soiled diaper, learn to attach the diaper that way in order to prevent the inevitable, hosing. Learn a simple shrug when your wife questions why the baby’s diaper is on backwards and feign with, “Sorry honey, just sleepy, I didn’t notice.” Don’t forget (important) to yawn while saying such. Dining out? Fagettaboutit! Or at least until your baby is a teenager or you trust in a babysitter. There is one exception to this rule, and that is McDonald’s. If I have to explain such, John, suffice to say, there will be difficult days ahead for you and Maria. One thing I learned about Mickey D’s, they have clean restrooms, and clean diaper changing tables, where many eateries, do not. Don’t forget,

John, change the little guy in the stomach down position. How to raise your baby books. There are a gazillion of the damned things gracing bookshelves, the Inter net, churches and pediatrician’s offices. Stay away from any book that has the words ‘scientific approach’ in the title. If you see Maria reading one and she looks up and gives you the eye, just smile back. There are two directions a couple should take on how to correctly raise a baby. First, the coin toss gut reaction dive into it method.

This study further confirms a link between sleep and weight. Many previous studies have also shown that when children and adults don’t get enough sleep, it increases their risk of being overweight and having heart disease. How much sleep should your children get? These are the recommended daily amounts for young kids: • 6 months to 2 years: 12 hours • 3 to 4 years: 10 hours • 5 to 7 years: 9 hours Here are some ideas for improving the amount and quality of your child’s sleep: • Set and enforce a regular bedtime. • Limit TV, especially before bedtime. The kind of light emitted by a TV can make it

harder to fall asleep. • Have soothing bedtime routines, such as bathing, quiet time and reading stories. • Consider room-darkening curtains or a white-noise machine. Why would sleeping less increase a child’s (or an adult’s) weight? We don’t know for sure that it does. But in recent years we’ve discovered some ways that it could. Most of the studies have been done with adults, not kids. In adults, experiments that restrict sleep to four to five hours each night lead to a fall in blood levels of the hormone leptin. Leptin travels in the blood, reaches the brain and has two ef fects. First, it decreases

Studies suggest link between obesity, lack of sleep

DEAR DOCTOR K: I recently saw a headline that said children who sleep less weigh more. Is that true? How much sleep should my preschooler and first-grader get each night? DEAR READER: I believe you’re referring to a study recently published in the medical jour nal Pediatrics. Researchers found that children who don’t get enough sleep may also have a higher risk of being overweight. Researchers from Harvardaffiliated Massachusetts General Hospital for Children kept track of more than 1,000 children from the ages of 6 months to 7 years. They asked mothers how much sleep their children got at the age of 6 months, 1 year, and then

every year until the end of the study. Between ages 7 and 8, researchers measured the children’s body fat and body mass index (BMI). They found that kids who were the most sleep-deprived were about 2 1/2 times as likely to be obese as those who consistently got enough sleep. They also scored higher on other measurements of body fat.

Battle fatigue, shell shock — aka PTSD LOCAL

Roswell Daily Record

I’ve talked with several people over time who know the term Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) as some “illness” soldiers “picked-up” in Vietnam and current wars, but want to know more about it. The following is a column I did on this disabling killer back in 2007 as a refresher and still relevant. PTSD has not been confined to one or two wars. It has been around since war has existed, but has not been known by one term or even been known as an illness. There are written accounts of similar symptoms that go back to ancient times, and there is clear documentation in the historical medical literature starting with the Civil War, where a PTSD-like disorder was known as “Da Costa’s Syndrome.” There are particularly good descriptions of post-traumatic stress symptoms in the medical literature on combat veterans of World War II and on

this, or it costs too much, or we don’t have the staff, or that other city can do it but we don’t have the resources. As a community, we begin to believe that it can’t be done, and we are forever going to have to live in a second-class community, when we see everyone else around us doing what a first-class community should be doing! We end up with an “inferiority complex.” We need to figure out a way to shift our thought processes from, “It can’t be done!” to “Let’s figure out a way to get it done!” We need to change our belief of “It costs too much!” to “If we can be creative and innovative, we can figure out how to make this happen!” With that said, Roswell is a great place to live and work. Roswell is a “stand alone” community with tremendous potential for economic growth. Where is that growth? It is a part of the “inferiority complex” that Mr. Entrop mentions. Let’s be more specific. Everything that Mr. Entrop mentions that is a plus for the community of Roswell has to do with the economic development of Roswell. He talks about our quality of life. Everything on his list is recreational or leisure oriented in nature. Even the crime rate can be considered directly related to the leisure and recreational programs offered in our community! These are all things that make Roswell a great place to live! Although recreation and leisure is only a part of our quality of life, it almost always ranks in the top two or three reasons why business moves to a community or even stays. Not counting the Roswell Symphony Orchestra, I have to mention that it was the former special event supervisor, Mr. Joe Vargas of the Roswell Parks and Recreation Department, who really pushed the concert movement in Roswell, and he still does. He was able to bring to Roswell some local, some regional and some national acts according to his limited budget, and once people started seeing what could be done, others started to realize that Roswell was ripe for these types of acts ... we just needed others to take charge, and needed additional venues.

Holocaust survivors. “Battle fatigue” and a soldier being “shell shocked” are both tags of essentially the same disorder. Making this illness more difficult to isolate, name, define and treat may be in the fact that it is not found just in soldiers or just in wartime. PTSD is a psychiatric disorder that can occur following the experience or witnessing of lifethreatening events such as military combat, natural disasters, terrorist incidents, serious accidents, or violent personal assaults (like rape). People who suffer from PTSD often relive the experience through nightmares and flashbacks,

mind, the community, in public meetings to develop the master Plan for Cielo Grande Recreation Area, stated that Roswell needed a large outdoor venue for concerts that could handle 6,000 to 8,000 people at a time. Naturally, this new amphitheater planned for Cielo Grande Recreation Area costs too much, or we don’t have the resources to build such a facility. Wait a minute, did I just promote our “inferiority complex” by saying we can’t? I should have said, “If we can be creative and innovative, we can make this venue happen!” Some events have already been scheduled in the area where the new amphitheater is scheduled to be built at CGRA. They have been very successful. Can you imagine what would happen once this facility is built? Can you imagine the economic impact of such a facility to be used all year around? This is just an example! We have other recreational and leisure oriented facilities that have been planned that will also have a large economic impact on the community when built. We have to start changing our negative attitudes about Roswell to something that says, “Let’s discuss these opportunities in a positive way with the public, so that Roswell can begin to get out of its inferiority complex.” Roswell is a great place to live.

If I were asked to try and give a nonclinical description of what it feels like, it would be similar to looking at a flash bulb or strobe light the second it went off, then close your eyes. You can still vividly see the light in the total darkness. For a while, you can open and close your eyes and still see the “flash” in the darkness each time you close your eyes. For combat soldiers, that “flash” in their mind’s eye is the buddies you watch die, women and children you watch being slaughtered by enemy bombs and bullets or being shot yourself, unable to move and realizing you are going to die in the next few minutes or seconds. However, those “flashes” when you close your eyes don’t

A golden rule to follow John is never ever hand the baby back to Maria and say, “I can’t get him to sleep, you do a better job of it.” If you make that mistake, as I did and learned, there will be many sleepless nights with you asleep, if possible, alone on the couch.

Road trips. Simple, for most babies road trips are good for sleep. Course, once your destination is reached, getting them back to sleep can be quite the task. If that situation arises, simply retur n to your auto, strap the little guy into his seat, and drive around the block a few times. This approach is also helpful every night of the week, traveling or not. Works like a charm plus your wife catches up on her lost sleep, and you, well, you don’t!

fade away over time. PTSD is marked by clear biological changes as well as psychological symptoms. It is complicated by the fact that it frequently occurs in conjunction with related disorders such as depression, substance abuse, problems of memory and cognition, and other problems of physical and mental health. The disorder is also associated with impairment of the person’s ability to function in social or family life, including occupational instability, marital problems and divorces, family discord, and pronounced difficulties in parenting. PTSD is also marked by increased likelihood of co-occurring psychiatric disorders. In a large-scale study, 88 percent of men and 79 percent of women with PTSD met criteria for another psychiatric disorder. The cooccurring disorders most prevalent for men with PTSD were alcohol abuse

I must ask, John, if you know who Harry Chapin is or was? “Was” is there for Harry is no longer alive. Harry Chapin was a folksy singer songwriter from back in the late 1960s and 1970s who wrote the song “Cats in the Cradle.” Find the song, John, listen to Chapin’s words.

Headaches, gastrointestinal complaints, immune system problems, dizziness, chest pain, or discomfort in other parts of the body are common in people with PTSD. Often, medical doctors treat the symptoms without being aware that they stem from PTSD. As with other war “illnesses,” PTSD for the last several wars was “ignored” or avoided by the government for the same old reason (if you define it and name it, you’ve got to treat it!). Soldiers coming home from World War I, World War II, Korea and Vietnam showed similar pronounced disorders, many of which ended with the veteran committing suicide and (all to often) taking someone with them. A study was called for by four separate presidents

Two major studies were completed: the National Vietnam Veterans’ Readjustment Study (1983 to 1988) and a study from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (1978 through 1982). It took almost 14 years from the first request for assistance by veterans organizations (an earlier study by the Disabled American Veterans) until the first “Vet Centers” were built and staffed to treat PTSD. Many, many veteran tragedies occurred before action was taken by our politicians. When asked by a reporter why it took so long, the director of the Veterans Administration at the time, Harry Walters, made the comment on National TV (heard with my own ears), “Well — you know the gover nment (huge laugh)!” Yep!

Gaza truce open-ended, but puts off tough issues Roswell Daily Record

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Israel and Gazaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ruling Hamas agreed Tuesday to an open-ended cease-fire after seven weeks of fighting â&#x20AC;&#x201D; an uneasy deal that halts the deadliest war the sides have fought in years, with more than 2,200 killed, but puts off the most difficult issues. In the end, both sides settled for an ambiguous interim agreement in exchange for a period of calm. Hamas, though badly battered, remains in control of Gaza with part of its military arsenal intact. Israel and Egypt will continue to control access to blockaded Gaza, despite Hamasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; long-running demand that the border closures imposed in 2007 be lifted. Hamas declared victory, even though it had little to show for a war that killed 2,143 Palestinians, wounded more than 11,000 and

left some 100,000 homeless. On the Israeli side, 64 soldiers and six civilians were killed, including two killed by Palestinian mortar fire shortly before the cease-fire was announced. Large crowds gathered in Gaza City after the truce took effect at dusk, some waving the green flags of Hamas, while celebratory gunfire and fireworks erupted across the territory. Mahmoud Zahar, a senior Hamas leader, promised to rebuild homes destroyed in the war and said Hamas would rearm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will build and upgrade our arsenal to be ready for the coming battle, the battle of full liberation,â&#x20AC;? he declared, surrounded by Hamas gunmen. The Israeli response was more subdued. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This time we hope the cease-fire will stick,â&#x20AC;? said gover nment Israeli

spokesman Mark Regev. He portrayed the deal as one Hamas had rejected in previous rounds of negotiations. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faced some criticism from hardline critics and residents of Israeli communities near Gaza who said the deal failed to defuse the threat from Gaza militants. Since July 8, Hamas and its allies have fired some 4,000 rockets and mortars at Israel, and tens of thousands of Israelis evacuated areas near Gaza in recent weeks.

Under the Egyptian-brokered deal, Israel is to ease imports to Gaza, including aid and material for reconstruction. It also agreed to a largely symbolic gesture, expanding a fishing zone for Gaza fishermen from three to six nautical miles into the Mediterranean.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, left, shakes hands with Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko, right, as Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev, center, watches, prior to their talks after posing for a photo in Minsk, Belarus, Tuesday.

No sign of quick end to Ukraine conflict MINSK, Belarus (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Ukraineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s president said Wednesday that Vladimir Putin accepts the principles of a peace plan for Ukraine but the Russian leader insisted that only Kiev can reach a ceasefire deal with the proMoscow separatists. Following meetings between Putin and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko that included a one-on-one session that stretched into the night, there was no indication of a quick end to the fighting that has engulfed eastern Ukraine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not our business,â&#x20AC;? Putin said of any cease-fire plan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is Ukraineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s business.â&#x20AC;? Russia â&#x20AC;&#x153;can only help to create an atmosphere of trust for this important and necessary process,â&#x20AC;? Putin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We in Russia cannot talk about any conditions for the ceasefire, about any agreements between Kiev, Donetsk, Luhansk,â&#x20AC;? the

two rebel regions. Although Poroshenko told reporters that he had secured support for a peace plan from leaders who attended the summit and Putin called the sessions â&#x20AC;&#x153;overall positive,â&#x20AC;? the first substantial encounter between the two leaders did not produce a breakthrough in efforts to end the fighting. If anything, there were signs of spreading violence. For the past two days, heavy shelling hit an area of southeast Ukraine that had escaped the intense fighting of recent weeks, and Ukrainian officials said the pro-Russia separatists it has been battling were aiming to open a new front. The meeting in the Belarusian capital, Minsk, also came on the same day that Ukraine said it captured 10 Russian soldiers who had come over the border. Putin did not directly

address the allegation but appeared to tacitly recognize it and suggested that the soldiers simply had become lost.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t received a report from the defense ministry and the general staf f yet, but the first thing I have heard is that that they were patrolling the border and may have found themselves on the Ukrainian territory,â&#x20AC;? Putin said.

Shortly after becoming president in June, Poroshenko put forth a peace plan that included an amnesty for those not accused of serious crimes and called for some decentralization of power to the region.

Early Wednesday, he said â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can say that the logic of this peaceful plan was finally supported by all, without exclusion, of the heads of state,â&#x20AC;? according to the Interfax news agency.

UN ENVOY OPPOSES FOREIGN INTERVENTION IN LIBYA

CAIRO (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; The newly appointed U.N. envoy to Libya said Tuesday he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe foreign intervention can halt the North African countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s slide deeper into turmoil after mysterious airstrikes against Islamist militias prompted allegations that outside powers were trying to swing the fight. The diplomat, Bernardino Leon, said that only an inclusive political process with all Libyans represented in parliament, government and other state institutions will end the chaos gripping the country more than three years after the uprising that forced longtime strongman Muammar Gadhafi from power. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Foreign intervention whatsoeverâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; because there are many types of interventionâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; any kind of intervention or foreign intervention wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help Libya get out of chaos,â&#x20AC;? Leon said. France, Germany, Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States raised similar concerns, saying in a joint statement that â&#x20AC;&#x153;outside interference in Libya exacerbates current divisions and undermines Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s democratic transition.â&#x20AC;? The New York Times, citing unnamed American officials, reported in its Tuesday edition that Egypt and the United Arab Emirates secretly carried out airstrikes against Islamist militias inside Libya, which it said caught American officials offguard. American officials have not made similar

claims publicly. Egypt has repeatedly denied involvement. Emirati officials have not commented. Islamist militias in Libya have made similar allegations against Egypt and the Emirates following two days of mystery airstrikes against Islamist-allied militia positions in Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capital, Tripoli, since Aug. 18. The strikes happened as Islamist-backed militias were fighting for control of Tripoliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s international airport. Libyan officials have repeatedly called the airstrikes â&#x20AC;&#x153;foreign,â&#x20AC;? and the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s air force likely does not have the capability to fly night sorties. Libyan lawmakers recently voted to ask the United Nations to intervene in the ongoing militia battles throughout the country. These militias largely are comprised of the rebels who toppled and later killed Gadhafi in 2011. Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shukri on Tuesday strongly denied reports of an Egyptian role in the airstrikes, calling them â&#x20AC;&#x153;unsubstantiated rumors promoted until they become a reality.â&#x20AC;? Shukri said his country respects Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s popular will and elected parliament, and supports its legitimacy and armed forces and will reach agreements on how to train them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But we have no direct connection to any of the military operations on the ground in Libya,â&#x20AC;? Shukri said.

Federal prosecutions not easy in police shootings

WASHINGTON (AP) — As the Justice Department probes the police shooting of an unarmed 18-year-old in Missouri, history suggests there’s no guarantee of a criminal prosecution, let alone a conviction.

authorities Federal investigating possible civil rights violations in the Aug. 9 death of Michael Brown in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson must meet a difficult standard of proof, a challenge that has complicated the path to prosecution in past police shootings.

T o build a case, they would need to establish that the police officer, Darren Wilson, not only acted with excessive force but

also willfully violated Brown’s constitutional rights. Though the Justice Department has a long history of targeting police misconduct, including after the 1991 beating of Rodney King, the high bar means that many highprofile police shootings that have raised public alarm never wound up in federal court.

“It’s a very difficult standard to meet, and it really is satisfied only in the most egregious cases,” said University of Michigan law professor Samuel Bagenstos, the former No. 2 of ficial in the department’s civil rights division. “Criminal enforcement of constitutional rights is not

It really requires building a case very carefully, very painstakingly.” Federal prosecutors, for instance, declined to charge New York police of ficers who killed the unar med Sean Bell in 2006 in a 50-shot barrage following his bachelor party in Queens.

BOULDER, Colo. (AP) — A provocative anti-marijuana campaign aimed at Colorado youths has angered marijuana activists for its tag line, “Don’t Be a Lab Rat.” Now, a Colorado city is holding off on displaying a human-size cage used in the campaign after a school district raised concerns. The city of Boulder said Tuesday it is putting off the campaign. The city is delaying installation after the Boulder Valley School District said the display was a bad prop for 12- to 15-year -olds, The Daily Camera reported (http://bit.ly/1tGYlxn ). “We had concerns about the use of human-scale rat cages being an effective tool for getting 12- to 15-yearolds to understand the risks involved with their developing brains,” school district spokesman Briggs Gamblin said. The 12-foot-long, 8-foothigh cage attracted vandals and jeers in its run at two different Denver locations, the public library and the downtown skate park. Recreational pot sales to those 21 and older in Col-

orado became legal this year. The state’s chief medical officer says the campaign is effective because it is getting kids talking about the risks of marijuana use. “From the public health standpoint, we want kids to take notice, and we want adults to talk with kids about marijuana,” Dr. Larry Wolk said Tuesday. He said he was surprised the campaign has sparked opposition. “I’m a little surprised, but I would hope that for the sake of the kids or their health, they would at least agree with the intent behind the campaign,” Wolk said. Boulder’s Shawn Coleman, a marijuana industry lobbyist, said the campaign suggested pot use could usher someone behind bars. “The first thing that happens is you see the illusion that cannabis use equals cage. So using marijuana equals jail,” he said. Gamblin said the school district simply worried about how students would take the campaign.

Judges chide state lawyers over gay marriage bans City puts off anti-pot CHICAGO (AP) — Federal appeals judges bristled on Tuesday at arguments defending gay marriage bans in Indiana and Wisconsin, with one Republican appointee comparing them to now-defunct laws that once outlawed weddings between blacks and whites. As the legal skirmish in the United States over same-sex marriage shifted to the three-judge panel of the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago, more than 200 people lined up hours before to ensure they got a seat at the much-anticipated hearing. While judges often play devil’s advocate during oral arguments, the panel’s often-blistering questions for the defenders of the same-sex marriage bans could be a signal the laws may be in trouble — at least at this step in the legal process. Richard Posner, who was appointed by President Ronald Reagan in 1981, hit the backers of the ban the hardest. He balked when Wisconsin Assistant Attorney General

Supporters of gay marriage in Wisconsin and Indiana attend a rally at the federal plaza Monday, in Chicago.

T imothy Samuelson repeatedly pointed to “tradition” as the underlying justification for barring gay marriage. “It was tradition to not allow blacks and whites to marry — a tradition that got swept away,” the 75year-old judge said. Prohibition of same-sex marriage, Posner said, derives from “a tradition of hate ... and savage discrimination” of homosexuals. Attorneys general in both states asked the appellate court to perma-

nently restore the bans, which were ruled unconstitutional in June. Its ruling could affect hundreds of couples who married after lower courts tossed the bans and before those rulings were stayed pending the Chicago appeal. Gay marriage is legal in 19 states as well as the District of Columbia, and advocates have won more than 20 court victories around the country since the U.S. Supreme Court ordered the federal government to recognize state-

played an inner strength that made him a leader among men. He was an example of a loving husband, a successful farmer, and a valiant soldier. He was also a member of the Church of Christ. During his military service with the 200th Coast Artillery, United States Army, as an anti-aircraft gunner, he engaged the Japanese until there were no supplies left to sustain the fight He became a prisoner of war on April 9, 1942, one year after enlisting. For three and a half years, he and his fellow soldiers endured unthinkable atrocities from the Japanese during the Bataan Death March, confinement at Philippine camps, and forced labor at a steel mill in Japan. In his memoirs, he wrote that prisoners would often be lined up and randomly killed for the slightest infraction. On one occasion, someone slipped outside the steel mill to get some beans from a nearby garden. After the discovery of the theft, Clyde willingly stepped forward to take the blame hoping to save someone else’s life. As a result, he endured stricter confinement with half-rations. In spite of experiencing malaria, losing around 80 pounds, and other atrocities, he acknowledged that God kept him alive by providing miracles to sustain him. We are thankful for

Clyde’s example. We salute you. “It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed” Deut 31:8 Condolences may be made online at lagronefuneralchapels.com. Arrangements are under the personal care of LaGrone Funeral Chapel.

ZERONA: The first non-invasive body contouring procedure to effectively remove stubborn fat. As seen on the Dr. Oz show, Rachel Ray, The Doctors, and Nightline. Zerona is the first FDA cleared non invasive body contouring treatment to effectively remove excess fat without negative effects associated with surgical methods. Zerona has been proven to provide clinically significant results in just two weeks without pain, swelling, bruising or downtime.

•How does it work? The Zerona low level laser stimulates the fat cell to liquify the fat within the cell. The liquefied fat then moves from inside the cell thru a temporary pore formed in the cell membrane to outside the cell

where it is in the interstitial space until absorbed by the lymphatic system. This results in millions of fat cells becoming smaller so inches are reduced off of the waist, hips and thighs. The fat cells are not injured in any way during the process.

What if I have a medical condition? Zerona is safe, with two exception. If you are pregnant or have a pace-maker, Zerona is not for you. There are no detrimental risks known but potential unknown risks to those individuals could exist. Zerona may not be as effective to those with

Denver Broncos already facing adversity

DENVER (AP) — General manager John Elway wanted more of an edge on defense after Denver’s shellacking in the Super Bowl, so he went out and signed free agents DeMarcus Ware, Aqib Talib and T.J. Ward. This trio of thumpers brought a new energy to the Broncos, who also got a big boost with the return of several starters who sat out that nightmare at the Meadowlands, notably Von Miller and Chris Harris Jr. The fervor wasn’t limited to Denver’s revamped defense, however, as the offense also showed off a new impetuosity. A reconfigured offensive line features the return of left tackle Ryan Clady and the feisty Orlando Franklin sliding over from right tackle to left guard. The Broncos’ interior has nearly 1,000 pounds of muscle to open lanes for bruising running back Montee Ball and provide a better pocket of protection for Peyton Manning. Speaking of the five-time MVP, he’s

brawnier in Year 3 in Denver. Forget all that talk about Manning losing it on deep throws, too. He’s as strong at age 38 as he was before those neck problems sidelined him in 2011. And he proved more irascible than ever by getting into the faces of teammates and opponents alike. First, he called out his offense after a clumsy performance in the first of three skirmish-filled joint practices with the Houston Texans. Then, he went after safety D.J. Swearinger in the preseason game for a hard hit that left Wes Welker with his third concussion in 10 months. “I loved it,” nose tackle Marvin Austin said. “It’s a beautiful thing. Peyton’s not really a trash-talking guy.” So, when Manning has something to say, everybody’s all ears. The Broncos are hoping this across-theboard pugnacity helps them become the first team since the 1972 Miami Dolphins

Healthy Romo key for Dallas defense in disarray See BRONCOS, Page B3

Denver Broncos kicker Matt Prater was suspended for the first four games of the regular season for testing positive while drinking beer in the offseason.

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Even if Tony Romo’s surgically repaired back holds up, the Dallas Cowboys could have a difficult time matching the 8-8 finish they’ve had for three years running. A beleaguered defense that gave up the third-most yards in NFL history last year is in disarray, and it won’t be long before the season opens against San Francisco. More than likely, the Cowboys will simply have to outscore opponents to avoid matching the franchise record of five straight years without a trip to the playoffs. “It’s been a tough three years in a row, so you want to have that breakthrough that you talk about,” said Jason Witten, who needs 201 yards receiving to join Tony Gonzalez and Shannon Sharpe as the only tight ends in league history with 10,000. “We’ve just got to go show it. We know what it takes. The only way to do that is to work hard every day.” Romo, Witten and receiver Dez Bryant hold the keys to that breakthrough, along with running back DeMarco Murray and an offensive line the Cowboys have invested in heavily with three first-round picks the past four years.

The makeover up front started in 2011 with tackle Tyron Smith, who recently signed an extension that gave him the second $100 million contract in franchise history after Romo. Dallas added center Travis Frederick in 2013 and guard Zack Martin this year. Bryant, who has 2,615 yards and 25 touchdowns the past two seasons, is motivated by his desire for a new contract — but more by the fact missing the postseason again will mean all five of his seasons in Dallas have ended without a playoff game. “Of course it bur ns me, especially because of how much I love this game,” said Bryant, who was drafted in the first round the year after Dallas’ only playoff victory since 1997. “Not only it bothers me, it bothers everybody else. You feel like you work hard and the results don’t come out right.” Things to watch as the Cowboys try to break a .500 rut that includes a 136-136 record going back to 1997, and seasonending losses to NFC East foes that kept them out of the playoffs each of the past

USC looking into BRIEFS Shawn’s heroic story Carlsbad shuts out Roswell in rain Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo’s surgically repaired back in late last season has kept him on and off the field leading up to the season opener.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Southern California coach Steve Sarkisian says the school is investigating defensive back Josh Shaw’s claim that he injured both of his ankles jumping off a balcony to save his nephew from drowning. Sarkisian said USC has received several calls contradicting Shaw’s story about the circumstances leading to his two high ankle sprains. Shaw’s story was told in a detailed post on the Trojans’ website Monday hailing the team captain’s heroism, but Sarkisian acknowledged USC isn’t exactly sure what happened. “We’re looking at it,” Sarkisian said after practice Tuesday morning. “Josh is adamant with what occurred, and we’ll continue to vet some of the other stories that have come across our desk or across our phones, and see where we can go from there.” Lt. Andy Neiman of the Los Angeles Police Department also said Tuesday afternoon that a man named Joshua Shaw was mentioned — but not as a suspect — in a report involving a Saturday night break-in at a downtown apartment building. Sarkisian said he had “no history to not believe Josh and his story,” but acknowledged the situation was increasingly murky. The first-year USC coach declined to See SHAWN, Page B3

U.S. Open: Serena Williams sizzles in leopard dress NEW YORK (AP) — Serena Williams doesn’t just play fierce. The five-time champion strode on court for her opening-round U.S. Open match against Taylor T ownsend on Tuesday night wearing a black-and-white, leopard-print dress that looked as tough as she plays. After Williams’ straight-set victory, ESPN’s Pam Shriver gave her review in the post-match TV interview: “By the way, the dress is phenomenal.” Williams responded with a growl. It’s not the first such fashion statement for Williams, who is seeded No. 1. On her way to the 2002 title, she wore a skin-hugging, all-black “catsuit,” and in 2004 she tur ned heads in a midriff-baring black top with a pleated blue jean skirt.

yet. He also earned a spot in the doubles main draw by winning the USTA Boys’ 18s title with Stefan Kozlov. The 16-year -old Kozlov was Rubin’s opponent in the junior Wimbledon final last month. If they win their first-round match, they face 15-time major champions Bob and Mike Bryan. Now that would be a great story, too.

Back To School: Noah Rubin will stick around the U.S. Open for at least a few more days before he starts his freshman year at Wake Forest. He’s already enrolled in classes: art history, writing, astrono-

my and Intro to Judaism. And what if he’s asked in his writing course to pen an essay on what he did over the summer? “I played a little tennis, recreationally, and took it from there,” Rubin said with a smile. A little tennis that took the 18year-old all the way to the junior Wimbledon title. Rubin made his Grand Slam main draw debut Tuesday at the U.S. Open, a spot he earned by winning the USTA Boys’ 18s National Championship. He lost to 66th-ranked Federico Delbonis of Argentina 6-4, 6-3, 6-0. “I learned that I can definitely compete with these guys at the best level, definitely things to learn,” Rubin said. “Fitness is one. Nerves came into play a little bit also.” Rubin grew up nearby in Long Island and drew a standingroom-only crowd on Court 13. Asked how many he knew personally, Rubin said, “Too many.” He has decided to forgo playing next week’s junior event, but his U.S. Open isn’t over quite

Light Reading: Ana Ivanovic is an avid reader — maybe a bit too much, sometimes. As she struggled with her game in the years after her 2008 French Open title, the Serbian star cracked open more than a few psychology books, searching out the mental keys to regaining her edge. She eventually had to force herself to cut back. “I’m sure when you study to be a doctor, you probably start to feel all these pains in your body,” Ivanovic said Tuesday. “So it’s the same. I started to read psychology, and I started to

feel all of that in myself.” Now 26, Ivanovic finally seems to have her head in the right place. This month, she returned to the top 10 for the first time in more than five years. “I really enjoy psychology — I

think it’s amazing what the human mind can or cannot do depending on how you perceive a situation,” Ivanovic said. But, now, she added: “I try to read something on the light side.”

LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — After Texas Tech’s Holiday Bowl win, the Red Raiders’ leading rusher approached coach Kliff Kingsbury to ask if he could switch positions. Kenny Williams saw how depleted the Red Raiders were going to be at linebacker during the upcoming season, so he offered to help out by heading to the other side. Now, after leading Texas Tech in rushing the past two seasons, the 5-11, 228-pound senior is set to start at outside linebacker when the Red Raiders host Central Arkansas on Saturday. “Linebacker is just like the mirror position to running back, so a lot of that (experience) comes in handy,” Williams said. “In certain situations I can kind of process what the running back is doing. It’s really been

for working me.” Williams will be taking over the position from Terrence Bullitt, who had two sacks and 37 tackles Kenny Williams last season. Williams, who had 497 yards rushing and eight touchdowns, also played on special teams. He had 14 tackles in that role and will probably again be in on kickoffs, punt blocks and kick returns. Williams was a triple threat on offense last season. In addition to his running back role, he caught one touchdown pass and threw for two others. Kingsbury’s seen improvement on defense from Williams and expects that to continue. He also

isn’t ruling out bringing Williams in on offense occasionally. “There are certain things he does really well offensively, so we may plug him in any given moment,” the second-year coach said. “We’ll see how the season’s going.” Williams is no stranger at linebacker. His began there at the start of his junior year at Hendrickson High in Pflugerville, Texas. Since then, though, he’s been a running back. Williams wants to play some on offense — and he smiled wryly when asked about slipping in on offense. “I have to have that click, that quick switch when they call me over to the offensive side of the ball,” he said. Matt Wallerstedt, the first Red Raiders defensive coordinator since 2009 to stay longer than a year, sees a great athlete in

Williams. “He’s a compact, powerful kid that plays with a lot of energy and a lot of effort,” Wallerstedt said. “You can’t take enough of those guys. He’s going to be a force to reckon with on the perimeter.” Williams doesn’t downplay that the switch to linebacker came with challenges. Learning the schemes and understanding the terminology was difficult, but he said those have come together after spring and fall workouts. He enjoys his time on special teams, too. “From an early age I learned that special teams are a key part of the game,” he said. “That’s how you have to treat it. Special teams can either lose or win games, and I’ve always taken pride in that.” Wallerstedt believes Williams’

skills will give him a better shot at playing in the NFL. “They’re going to see how versatile he is, and they’ll see how well he does on special teams,” he said. “A guy like that can have a lot of different roles with a lot of different teams with his speed. I think he could play in the league for a while.” On a defense that lost several key players (Kerry Hyder, Dartwan Bush and Will Smith), Williams wants to be a leader for some of the younger players. “A lot of guys look up to me,” he said. “If the guys look up to you, knowing that they’re looking up to you, you want to go all out.”

Roswell Daily Record

Lovestruck: Kevin Love pledges commitment to Cavs INDEPENDENCE, Ohio (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kevin Loveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s phone rang in July and LeBron James asked the All-Star forward if he wanted to play with him in Cleveland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in,â&#x20AC;? Love told James. For the long haul. Getting used to a new city and new team after being acquired by the Cavaliers on Saturday, Love said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s committed to winning an NBA title with the Cavaliers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; however long it takes. Love, who didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the playoffs during six sometimes rocky seasons with Minnesota, can opt out of his contract and become a free agent next summer. But 25-year -old Love, regarded as the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top â&#x20AC;&#x153;spacingâ&#x20AC;? forward, said he intends to stay with James and the Cavs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m committed to this team, committed long term to the end goal and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to win champi-

discuss the discrepancies in detail, or the identity of the callers who contradicted the story. Shaw, a fifthyear senior, wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t made available to reporters, and he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t return a phone call. Shaw apparently told the school he was at a family party in Palmdale, California, when he saw his 7year -old nephew, Carter, struggling in a pool. According to the website post, Shaw jumped from a second-story balcony onto concrete before dragging himself into the pool and rescuing his nephew, who doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how to swim. Although Shawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s injuries arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expected to keep him out for the season, Sarkisian still wants to know exactly how they happened. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to know your players,â&#x20AC;? Sarkisian said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Josh Shaw has been a good leader for us. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s given me no reason

Broncos

to win the Super Bowl the year after losing it. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to navigate some potholes to get there:

Bowlenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Absence: Even as dementia began to rob him of some of his fondest memories over the past few years, team owner Pat Bowlen reported to work every day to oversee multimillion-dollar upgrades to the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s training facilities and roster. Alzheimerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s is preventing the 70-year-old former triathlete from running the team anymore. Elway and team president Joe Ellis, both tearyeyed when camp began minus the beloved Bowlen, pledged to continue running the team as he did. Elway said the highlight of his career was when Bowlen held high the Lombardi Trophy in 1997 and declared, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for John!â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want nothing more than to return that favor,â&#x20AC;? Elway said. Prater Problem: The Broncos will be without the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top kicker for their first four games after Matt Prater was suspended for

onships,â&#x20AC;? he said. Cleveland is smitten with its newest superstar. Love was introduced Tuesday by the Cavs, who acquired him in a blockbuster, three-team trade that instantly tur ned Cleveland, which won just 33 games last season, into an NBA championship favorite. The deal also gives the team a star-powered trio in Love, James and Kyrie Irving. Love and James became friends two summers ago as U.S. Olympic teammates in London. It was there, while chasing a gold medal together, that James began recruiting Love, who wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure what to make of the four -time league MVPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overtures. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sitting next to me, a locker really close to me and he would always tell me how good he thought I was,â&#x20AC;? Love said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For

not to believe what he has told us that occurred, but we do need to know. I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to know in the direction weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re headed.â&#x20AC;? In another layer to the confusion, Neiman said LAPD officers answering to a report of a woman screaming in a downtown apartment complex Saturday interviewed a woman inside and several witnesses. USC is on the south end of downtown. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a mention of a Joshua Shaw in this report but not in ter ms of him being a suspect,â&#x20AC;? Neiman said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To make any link at this point would be premature.â&#x20AC;? The woman told officers that someone had pried open a window, entered the third-floor apartment and fled, but nothing was taken, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The victim acknowledged that she had a relationship with a Mr. Shaw,â&#x20AC;? Neiman added in an email. The 15th-ranked Trojans open their season Saturday at home against Fresno State. Olvera who passed it to Chris Mesquita for the assist. Gilbert Moreno came up with the second goal while the last goal came from a free kick by Moreno that Joseph Contreras put in back of the net. Jennings played 90 minutes and had two saves. Carlsbadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jesus Estrada scored the second goal.

Goddard 5, Ruidoso 1 Goddard came up with a 5-1 win in their season opener on the road against Ruidoso with violating the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s substance abuse policy by drinking alcohol. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why did I risk it?â&#x20AC;? Prater said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I made a mistake. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have an excuse for it. I screwed up and now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m paying the price for it.â&#x20AC;? The suspension will cost Prater $705,882 in base salary and forces the Broncos to go with unproven first-year pro Brandon McManus.

Replacing Holliday: What was shaping up as one of the NFLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best comeback stories ended when wide receiver Jordan Norwood tore his left ACL in camp after emerging as Trindon Hollidayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s replacement on punt returns. Cut five times by four teams and out of football last year, Norwood had also added depth to Denverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s receiving group. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m very disappointed for him and at this point for us, selfishly,â&#x20AC;? coach John Fox said.

Trevathanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Trevails: Weakside linebacker Danny Trevathan broke his left leg at practice, robbing the Broncos of their leading tackler for the first month of this season. Taking his place is Brandon Marshall, a 24-year -old every-down

me I would just kind of brush it off and shake it off because I was standoffish because I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know him well.â&#x20AC;? James persisted and after more conversations, Love realized there could be a time when their careers could intersect again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought that one day maybe I could play with LeBron James,â&#x20AC;? he said. And now that Love is gone, the Timberwolves are left to rebuild around No. 1 overall pick Andrew Wiggins and last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top pick, Anthony Bennett, two young players they were able to pry from Cleveland. Love didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t leave the Timberwolves on the best of terms. He was the face of the franchise, and Minnesota is where he developed into one of the gameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top rebounders and scorers, a dual threat from inside and out.

Shaw, a starting cornerback, is widely regarded as a solid teammate who leads by example, although several T rojans recalled a handful of fiery in-game speeches from Shaw last season. The Florida transfer is a key component of USCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s secondary, considered one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best groups. Shaw had four interceptions while starting 14 games last season, his second with the Trojans. He has played both safety and cornerback, moving around a defense with little depth due to NCAA sanctions. Shaw is out indefinitely, but Sarkisian said X-rays and MRI exams on the defensive backâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ankles all showed no structural damage. Chris Hawkins and Kevon Seymour will fill in for Shaw during his absence, with freshman Adoree Jackson likely serving as the third cor nerback. three players named Jonathan involved in scoring action. The Rockets led 3-0 at the half. Jonathan Sanchez scored the first goals before two Jonathan Villa scored the next one. Daniel Najera came out with the first goal in the second half. Then Joel Dominguez got on the scoreboard. Jonathan Gutierrez had one assist. Sanchez had an assist. Dominguez had an assist. Roswell outshot 15-7. Ruidosoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Brian Ramirez had one goal. linebacker known mostly as the man who gets mistaken for the OTHER Brandon Marshall, the Chicago Bearsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; star receiver. This Marshall has but one career tackle. Yet, he promises there will be no drop-of f in Denverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense even though Trevathan led the team with 124 tackles last season and 24 more in the playoffs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will get it done,â&#x20AC;? declared Marshall, whom the Broncos trust enough to relay Jack Del Rioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play calls. Bad Connection: After throwing for more yards and touchdowns than anyone in NFL history, Manning had to say goodbye to wide receiver Eric Decker, who signed with the Jets. He was replaced by Emmanuel Sanders, who has better separation and speed than Decker. However, a nagging thigh injury kept him from developing a good chemistry with Manning, who finally texted him one night and told him heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d better get back on the field. Finding that rhythm is â&#x20AC;&#x153;going to have to be in-seasonâ&#x20AC;? now, offensive coordinator Adam Gase said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to have some growing pains there.â&#x20AC;?

Wednesday, August 27, 2014

But the years of losing wore on him and it was no secret that he wanted out. Still, Love said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look back on his first NBA home as a positive experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The people of Minnesota were great, the fans were great, they showed up, win, lose or draw, and I really developed a lot of relationships all the way down through the organization,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a great six years, and I enjoyed my time, and I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say enough good things about it.â&#x20AC;? While Love was saying good things about his former team, his old boss wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as war m about him. Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure Love fits in Cleveland as well as many believe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I question Kevin if this is going to be the best deal for him because I think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be

the third player on the team,â&#x20AC;? Taylor said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to get a lot of credit if they do really well. I think heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get blame if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s around a couple guys that are awful good. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not saying Kevin isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t good. I think where maybe he got away with some stuff not playing defense on our team, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s how itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to work in Cleveland. I would guess theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to ask him to play more defense â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foul prone.â&#x20AC;? The Cavs know nothing is certain, and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s risk in bringing aboard Love. But with James, Love, Irving, guard Dion Waiters, relentless rebounder Anderson Varejao and newly signed veterans Shawn Marion, Mike Miller and James Jones, the Cavs have the makings of a championship team â&#x20AC;&#x201D; this season and for many more to come.

Spencer to start on active roster IRVING, Texas (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Dallas defensive end Anthony Spencerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s recovery from microfracture surgery on his left knee is coming along well enough for him to start the season on the active roster. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said on his radio show Tuesday that Spencer wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be ready for the Sept. 7 opener against San Francisco, but would avoid a sixweek stay on the physically unable to perform list. The 30-year-old Spencer said he hopes to return to practice within two weeks, but canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be ready for a game. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still working to get back on the field,â&#x20AC;? Spencer said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the main goal. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll know when I get my first type of contact against another player, how much of that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to need.â&#x20AC;? Spencer dealt with a nagging knee issue throughout the offseason last year and skipped the opener before playing in Kansas City. When swelling and soreness

three years.

Garrettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Offseason: Owner Jerry Jones said when training camp opened that Garrett wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t coaching for his job. But the backup quarterback on Dallasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; championship teams of the 1990s is in the final year of his contract, and his fourth full season. Only twice has Dallas missed the playoffs five straight times â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the franchiseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first five years starting in 1960, and a stretch that included Jonesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; first two seasons as owner. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think about it at all,â&#x20AC;? Garrett said.

LB Quandry: The Cowboys are having trouble settling on a plan to replace Sean Lee, who tore a knee ligament in the first offseason practice. They would like for mer top 10 pick Rolando McClain to start in the middle, but theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re bringing him along slowly after he sat out in 2013 and twice walked away from football during a brief stint in Baltimore. Justin Durant was in the middle, but is more suited to an outside spot. Bruce Carter is coming off a subpar season. Rookie fourth-round pick Anthony Hitchens is an even bigger part of the mix now that second-year player DeVonte Holloman has been advised by doctors to quit playing because of a neck condition.

persisted, he opted for microfracture surgery last October. The eighth-year player made about $19.5 million over two seasons playing under the franchise tag in 2012 and 2013. When he re-signed for $1.3 million with only $250,000 guaranteed, it still wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t certain he would return from a surgery thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s described as potentially career-ending for professional athletes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a timetable for myself,â&#x20AC;? said Spencer, who had a careerhigh 11 sacks two years ago. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really was taking on the strength of my body. Right now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stronger than it has been. I feel like weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a good place.â&#x20AC;? Spencerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s return could be a boost to a defense still trying to figure out the rotation for a front four thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s missing franchise sack leader DeMarcus Ware and 2013 sack leader Jason Hatcher from last season. Ware signed with Denver after the Cowboys released him, and Hatcher chose Washington in free agency.

relationship, and Linehan was spending a lot of time with Romo even when his 34-year-old quarterback wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t taking competitive snaps in offseason workouts. Linehan also seems intrigued by Murrayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backup Lance Dunbar, a speedy change-of-pace back. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Scott is a really gifted play caller,â&#x20AC;? Romo said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We will talk for hours sometimes.â&#x20AC;?

D-Line Without D-Ware: Franchise sacks leader DeMarcus Wareâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s departure could loom large if the Cowboys are as porous as they were defensively last year. Free agent tackles Henry Melton and Terrell McClain missed most of training camp and the preseason. Rookie second-round pick DeMarcus Lawrence, their heir apparent to Ware in more than name only, is out until probably midseason with a broken foot. Undrafted rookie Davon Coleman has been starting in the preseason, and unheralded second-year man Zach Minter was one of the exhibition stars. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I liken this defense to a no-name type defense,â&#x20AC;? executive vice president for personnel Stephen Jones said.

Romoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Backup: Kyle Orton bailed on the final year of his contract after starting the finale against Philadelphia last season, a loss that was sealed by his late interception. The Cowboys quickly grabbed Brandon Weeden, who was released by Cleveland just two years after getting drafted in the first round. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 5-15 as a starter, but the Cowboys seem committed to him should anything happen to Romo.

Latest Astrodome proposal: A giant indoor park HOUSTON (AP) — The iconic but shuttered Houston Astrodome could come back to life as an indoor park that county officials say would be the world’s largest, according to the newest proposal for reusing the stadium and saving it from demolition. The pitch came from Harris County Judge Ed Emmett, the county’s top elected official, during a news conference Tuesday on the floor of the 49-year -old county-owned building. Emmett said while some people feel the structurally sound but dilapidated stadium should be demolished, he views the Astrodome as an asset that’s still useful. “Before we just toss it on the trash heap, we need to take a look at what people in our community need,” he said. Emmett said he came up with the idea while on a morning walk during one of Houston’s hot and humid days. The proposal includes a green space for festivals and other gatherings, a possible amphitheater and an area for sports activities. Emmett pointed to the Astrodome’s upper seating levels

Tuesday, saying they could be a good location for hiking, biking and fitness trails. Opened in 1965, the so-called Eighth Wonder of the World once housed MLB’s Astros and the NFL’s former Oilers but hasn’t been home to a sports team since 1999 and has been closed to all events since 2009. Many of its brightly colored seats were sold to the public last year, along with the AstroTurf that once covered the floor. It’s not in any immediate danger of being demolished after voters last year didn’t authorize $217 million in bonds to turn it into a multipurpose special events center. But local officials have continued to struggle to find an alternative use. Other proposals have included a water park and sports memorabilia museum, but none has gained much traction. Emmett did not offer a firm funding plan or a cost estimate for his indoor park proposal, though he suggested creating private-public partnerships to pay for it. A detailed proposal on the indoor park idea could be pre-

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Dez Bryant couldn’t stop smiling at the luxury watches that are more expensive than some cars, far removed from his days as a troubled rookie facing a lawsuit over unpaid jewelry bills. The Dallas Cowboys were giving their star receiver the fancy timepiece as a reward for being among just four players chosen to attend a news conference announcing a partnership with the Swiss manufacturer Hublot. Bryant beamed for the cameras during Monday night’s ritzy event at the $1.2 billion home of the Cowboys, and then offered one more illustration of his transformation. While reiterating that he wants to be paid like a big-time receiver, he wants negotiations to stop

before the Sept. 7 opener against San Francisco with or without deal. Why? Because a player who was the king of distractions four years ago doesn’t want to be “distracted” once the regular season starts. “I don’t want to talk about it anymore,” Bryant said. “Put it behind me. I love this game. Either way, I feel like I can’t be distracted once I’m on the football field.” The fifth-year receiver is entering the final year of his rookie contract after Tyron Smith, drafted a year later and one of the teammates joining him for the watch presentation, recently got an eight-year extension that pushed the value of his deal to more than $100 million.

sented by the Harris County Sports and Convention Corp. to Harris County commissioners, the group of local leaders who manage the county, within three months, officials said. “I think it’s got legs,” Beth Wiedower, senior field officer with the National Trust for Historic Preservation, said of Emmett’s idea. Wiedower’s organization has been one of various groups that have been working to save the Astrodome from the wrecking ball. Wiedower said she is not aware of any other indoor park on the scale that Harris County is proposing. The world’s first multipurpose domed stadium is also under consideration for a “state antiquities landmark” designation from the Texas Historical Commission that would make it more difficult to tear it down. But a decision from the commission is on hold. Emmett’s idea comes after a $66 million proposal by the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo was unveiled last month that calls for destroying the structure to make way for green space and a 25,000-square-foot replica of the stadium that would

house an Astrodome hall of fame. The rodeo and the Houston Texans have been proponents of demolishing the Astrodome, which sits next to the sleek and modern NRG Stadium, where the NFL team plays and where the rodeo is held each year.

The stadium’s most prominent use in recent years was as a shelter for Louisiana residents displaced by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. The National Park Service added the Astrodome to its National Register of Historic Places in January.

believes he belongs in that company. “I believe a player should get paid what he deserves,” said Bryant, who is tied for the league lead with 25 touchdowns over the past two seasons. “If I’m top five, I’m top five. If I’m top three, I’m top three. If I’m top two, I’m top two.” Owner Jerry Jones, not one to offer many details on negotiations, didn’t reject Bryant’s suggestion that there was a “big chance” a deal could be done by the end of next week. Bryant’s agent, Eugene Parker, didn’t return a call seeking comment. “He’s got a good sense of it,” Jones said at Monday’s event, which was also attended by tight end Jason Witten and running back DeMarco Murray. “He obvi-

ously feels in the right circumstances he wants to get something done. We do, too.” Bryant’s tumultuous first two years with the Cowboys included jewelry lawsuits that were settled, a baggy pants incident at an upscale Dallas mall and a domestic disturbance charge over an incident with his mother. He’s also created stirs with a variety of sideline antics. While the sideline shows are more recent, the brushes with the law are now at least two years old. And he says a big contract won’t change him. “I’m here to take care of my family,” says Bryant, who has two young sons. “That’s all I ever wanted to do, is take care of my family. I know how to survive with nothing.”

Obama to award Medal of Honor to Civil War officer WASHINGTON (AP) — A century and a half after his valiant death at the Battle of Gettysburg, a Union Ar my of ficer is being awarded the nation’s highest military decoration, thanks to a decadeslong campaign by his descendants and Civil War buffs. The White House announced Tuesday that President Barack Obama approved the Medal of Honor for 1st Lt. Alonzo H. Cushing, who was killed standing his ground against Pickett’s Charge during the pivotal, threeday Battle of Gettysburg. Congress granted a special exemption last December for Cushing to receive the award posthumously since recommendations normally have to be made within two years of the act of heroism and the medal awarded within three years. The White House also announced that Obama will award the medal in a ceremony on Sept. 15 to two Vietnam War soldiers who also received the con-

gressional exemption — Army Command Sgt. Maj. Bennie G. Adkins and Army Spc. Donald P. Sloat. The medal is given to members of the Ar med Forces who risk their own life in an act of great personal bravery. Cushing was bor n in Delafield, Wisconsin, raised in Fredonia, New York, and buried at his alma mater, West Point, after being killed on July 3, 1863, at age 22. He commanded about 110 men and six cannons, defending the Union position on Cemetery Ridge against Pickett’s Charge, a major Confederate thrust that could have turned the tide in the war. Cushing received a bullet wound in the head. The fierce battle near the town of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, resulted in more than 51,000 casualties. Confederate soldiers advanced into the Union fire but eventually retreated with massive losses. The South never recovered from the defeat. Four months later, President

Abraham Lincoln memorialized the Union war dead in his Gettysburg Address. During the battle, Cushing’s small force stood their ground under a severe artillery bombardment as nearly 13,000 Confederate infantrymen waited to advance. Cushing was wounded, and his battery was left with two guns and no long-range ammunition. Historians say his stricken battery should have been withdrawn and replaced with reserve forces, but Cushing insisted on ordering his guns to the front lines on the last day of fighting. “Refusing to evacuate to the rear despite his severe wounds, he directed the operation of his lone field piece continuing to fire in the face of the enemy,” the White House said in its announcement. “With the rebels within 100 yards of his position, Cushing was shot and killed during this heroic stand. His actions made it possible for the Union Army to successfully repulse the Confederate assault.”

His descendants and Civil War buffs have been pushing for the Union Army lieutenant killed at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to receive the award.

Social media users shy away from opinions US eager to cater WASHINGTON (AP) — People who use Facebook and Twitter are less likely than others to share their opinions on hot-button issues, even when they are offline, according to a surprising new survey by the Pew Research Center. The study, done in conjunction with Rutgers University in New Jersey, challenges the view of social media as a vehicle for debate by suggesting that sites like Facebook and Twitter might actually encourage self-censorship. Researchers said they detect what they call the “spiral of silence” phenomenon: Unless people know their audience agrees, they are likely to shy away from discussing anything controversial. In other words, most of us are more comfortable with ice-bucket challenges than political banter. “People do not tend to be using social media for this type of important political discussion. And if anything, it may actually be removing conversation from the public sphere,” said Keith Hampton, a communications professor at Rutgers University who helped conduct the study. The survey was conducted shortly after Edward Snowden acknowledged leaking classified intelligence that exposed widespread government surveillance of Americans’ phone and email records. Hampton said the Snowden case provided researchers with a concrete example of a major national issue that divided Americans and dominated news coverage. Of the 1,801 adults surveyed, 86 percent they would be willing to discuss their views about government surveillance if it came up at various in-person scenarios, such as at a public meeting, at work or at a

Online loudmouths may be annoying, but a new survey suggests they are in the minority. In a report released Tuesday, the Pew Research Center found that most people who regularly use social media sites were actually less likely to share their opinions, even offline.

restaurant with friends. But just 42 percent of Facebook or Twitter users said they would be willing to post online about it. What’s more, the typical Facebook user — someone who logs onto the site a few times per day — was actually half as likely to discuss the Snowden case at a public meeting as a non-Facebook user. Someone who goes on Twitter a few times per day was one-quarter as likely to share opinions in the workplace compared with those who never use Twitter. Only when a person felt that their Facebook network agreed with their opinion were they twice as likely to join a site discussion on the issue, the survey found. Another finding was that social media didn’t make it easier for peo-

ple to share opinions they wouldn’t otherwise share. Of the 14 percent of Americans unwilling to discuss the Snowden case with others in person, fewer than one-half of 1 percent were willing to discuss it on social media. Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Research Center Internet Project, said it’s possible that social media actually sensitize people to different opinions.

“Because they use social media, they may know more about the depth of disagreement over the issue in their wide circle of contacts,” he said. “This might make them hesitant to speak up either online or offline for fear of starting an argument, offending or even losing a friend.”

COSTA MESA, Calif. (AP) — On a hot summer day, nearly two dozen Chinese tourists descended from a white shuttle bus for an afternoon of shopping at one of Southern California’s signature upscale malls. One tourist conferred with a salesman at South Coast Plaza about a plumcolored, $610 Prada handbag while fellow visitors on the 10-day tour sauntered through the mall, each with their sole child in tow, after a morning of whale watching off the California coast. It’s a common scene at the popular destination in Orange County, which is doing what it can to keep buses filled with Chinese tourists coming. To make them feel at home, it accepts China’s UnionPay card and provides Mandarin-speaking salespeople. From the mall’s shops to tourist spots that of fer maps and brochures in Mandarin to hotels serving congee, or rice porridge, for breakfast, businesses in Califor nia are trying to entice the growing numbers of Chinese tourists coming to the U.S. to visit the state — and spend money. Tourism from China to the U.S. has soared since the countries signed an agreement in 2007 promot-

ing travel. More than 1.8 million Chinese visited last year, a three-fold increase in five years. By 2018, the number is expected to surpass 4 million, according to the U.S. Department of Commerce. California, the No. 1 destination, holds particular allure due to its proximity to China, theme parks and sunny weather. Nearly half of all Chinese tourists make a stop in the state. Haybina Hao, of the National Tour Association, which qualifies U.S.-based tour operators to receive Chinese tour groups under the 2007 agreement, said the tourists are keen to see how a relatively young country like the U.S. developed so quickly and became so prosperous. “Until they have visited U.S.A., they don’t feel they have done their international travel yet,” Hao said. “They need to see it and put themselves in the photograph, so they can prove they have done this.” During their travels, they each spend an average of $5,400, 21 percent more than the average for all overseas tourists. “We see tremendous potential,” said Nick Hentschel, vice president of AmericanTours Inter national LLC.

Soggy start: Rains leave Burning Man crews stuck at Wal-Mart RENO, Nev. (AP) — Ah, Burning Man, the annual weeklong rave that draws thousands of freethinkers to a remote spot in the Nevada desert. It’s a festival so remote and bizarre that the only limit to free expression is imagination ... and that dust that always gets into the electronics. Except when it rains. That’s when the “Burners” end up in the parking lot of the Reno Wal-Mart. Turned back at the gate to the Black Rock Desert after rare showers on Monday tur ned the ancient lake bottom to a muddy quagmire, hundreds of “Burners” were forced to overnight on the Wal-Mart blacktop. Nearly a hundred other RVs pulled into the parking lot of the Grand Sierra Resort casino, across the street. “We’re just trying to stay positive,” said a woman from Oakland,

California, who identified herself only as “Driftwood,” and was hanging out with some first-timers from T exas. “Positivity can raise everything up.” Organizers announced after midnight that they could roll onto the lake. By midmorning Tuesday all but a few dozen of the RVs were back on the road again, and by most accounts, no worse for the wear. “We’ll make the best of things” said Aviva Mohilner, a former public relations specialist from Los Angeles making her third trip. “It always works out. Burners make it good.” One New York City man loading coolers into a UHaul on his first voyage to the desert wilderness said he was in too much of a hurry to make it to the desert Tuesday to talk. But another New Yorker, Ben Zion, asked a

reporter to take a picture of him and his eight friends from Israel, all anxious first-timers. The rain delay was actually good for them, he said: “We got to get some rest and a shower.” Cuong Huynh, a four time Burner and IT specialist from San Diego, California, said he’s usually more concer ned about dusty wind storms than rain, which is why he keeps his cellphone in a plastic bag. Last year, it rained just before the festival, packing all the dirt and keeping the dust down, he said. “Rain is really good for us, just not while you’re out there,” he said. Destin Gerek, an 11year veteran, thinks the delay will add a spark to the gathering. “All this pent-up energy,” said Gerek, 36, who teaches Bur ning Man

workshops on the “intersection of sexuality and spirituality.” Gerek grew up in New York City, lives in California and has toured 25 different countries. “In all

my travels, Burning Man is utterly unique,” he said. “Absolutely nothing compares.” That was the general consensus among Burners Monday night as

many of the RVs, VW buses and truck’s pulling trailers gathered at a makeshift staging area under the blinking pink casino lights twinkling through the night.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

DEAR ABBY: Five years ago, my husband got drunk and physically attacked me in front of his family. It was horrible. I was in shock, and our relationship never recovered. The next four years were a series of court visits for custody of our child and eventually a divorce. Last year, his mother began requesting visits with our son. I was happy about it because I have tried to be accommodating to my ex and his family regarding our son. Finally, late last year, I called my ex to ask if we could sit down and discuss our son (something we had never done). We have met

twice during the last two weeks, and each time had long conversations about everything. (Our son, our past, our relationship.) Many misconceptions were cleared up, and it’s obvious that we both have made many necessary changes within ourselves. Now I’m confused about what comes next. Speaking with him has brought back so many feelings. Prior to the attack, our stress levels had been high and our communication was terrible, but there had been no physical violence. I’m not sure if this is the universe giving us an opportunity to give the family we started another chance. Should we start over? WAVERING IN NEW YORK DEAR WAVERING: What comes next might be that you and your ex can become good friends and parent your son in a congenial, cooperative fashion. What comes next might be that you rekindle your romance. Or it might be that you get back together and he assaults you again. If your ex has sought help for his drinking and anger manage-

COMICS

ment issues, a reconciliation could work out beautifully. However, if he hasn’t, I certainly wouldn’t recommend it. Sometimes people can care deeply about each other, but shouldn’t be married. ##### DEAR ABBY: My 95-year-old mom feels that her age “entitles” her to speak without a filter, and she has become totally intolerant and critical. She is mentally sharp and highly intelligent, which makes her nasty comments even more hurtful to family and friends. Standing up to her isn’t an option because of her age and she knows it. She doesn’t seem to recognize how damaging her attitude has become to those who love her. If you could print this and offer some advice, she might recognize herself. A LOVING SON

DEAR LOVING SON: The fact that someone has celebrated 95 birthdays does not give the person license to be deliberately unkind to others. Negativity is

an unattractive trait, regardless of how old you are. People who deliberately say hurtful things invariably find the circle of those who want to be around them shrinking. My advice to your mother would be, before opening her mouth, ask herself whether what she has to say is true, helpful and KIND. And if it isn’t all THREE, she should rephrase her comment or not say it at all. #####

Family Circus

DEAR ABBY: What does one say to casual acquaintances who stop by uninvited and with no prior phone call? NANCY IN AURORA, COLO. DEAR NANCY: Let me tell you first what one DOESN’T say. It’s “Come in!” It is perfectly acceptable to explain that the person caught you in the middle of your housework or a project you need to finish and, please, in the future to call before dropping by so you can make some plans together.

I love the stuff and mix it with soy sauce or red-wine vinegar to use as a dip for egg rolls. Chances are there is a bottle in your kitchen. But how much do you really know about it? Which of the following is NOT an ingredient in regular (original) Worcestershire sauce? A) Tamarind extract B) Molasses C) Pepper D) Anchovies E) Garlic

Dear Heloise: I read your hints daily in the (Waterbury, Conn.) RepublicanAmerican and find them really helpful, or there are some I already do and didn’t think they were good enough to share. Here’s one that I love, and it saves me a ton of time and mess: I use a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop to fill mushrooms after I mix up my stuffing mixture. This results in perfectly mounded stuffed mushrooms every time! Yum! Laurie B. in Connecticut Dear Heloise: I keep a bottle of my favorite Italian-style salad dressing in my pantry all the time. This “can do” liquid helps make a delicious meal. I marinate chicken before baking and add to cooked pasta and vegetables for a delicious pasta salad. And I place cut-up meat in the slow cooker, add some salad dressing and put it on rolls for a dinner sandwich. Janet D. in Indiana

These are all clever uses for Italian dressing and examples of how cooking can be fun and easy when experimenting in the kitchen. I like to add different spices and substitutes in recipes. (However, my husband, David, does question some of my “tests.”) Many of my hints and recipes are in Heloise’s Seasonings, Sauces and Substitutes pamphlet. To order one, please send $3 and a long, selfaddressed, stamped (70 cents) envelope to: Heloise/Seasonings, P.O. Box 795001, San Antonio, TX 78279-5001.

Burger King plans expansion of Tim Hortons B8 Wednesday, August 27, 2014

MIAMI (AP) — The fight for the coffee and breakfast crowd is heating up, both at home and abroad. Burger King said Tuesday it will buy Tim Hortons in an $11 billion deal that would create the world’s third largest fast-food chain. The company is hoping to turn the coffee-and-doughnut chain into a household name outside Canada, and give itself a stronger foothold in the booming morning business. Alex Behring, Burger King’s executive chairman, said the new company would be one of the fastestgrowing fast-food chains in the world. The international ambitions for Tim Hortons echo the strategy Burger King’s owner, 3G Capital, has applied to Burger King since buying the hamburger chain in 2010. Given Burger

King’s struggles in the U.S., the investment firm has focused on opening more locations in countries including China and Russia by striking deals with local franchisees.

Last year, for example, 3G accelerated expansion and opened 670 Burger King locations. Burger King now has nearly 14,000 locations globally, but the company has noted that’s still far less than the more than 35,000 McDonald’s restaurants around the world.

In the U.S., Tim Hortons could also give Burger King another way to tap into the attractive coffee and breakfast markets, which have been dominated by players including McDonald’s, Dunkin’ Donuts and Starbucks. Marc Caira, the CEO of Tim Hortons, noted the Canadian chain’s recent

efforts to make a bigger push into the U.S., including updated store designs that feature couches and fireplaces.

Caira said he felt T im Hortons could “win much quicker” in the U.S. with the help of Burger King. Most of T im Hortons more than 4,500 locations are in Canada; 866 of them are in the U.S. Last year, Tim Hortons’ U.S. sales rose 1.8 percent at established locations.

Winning over customers will nevertheless be a challenge for Tim Hortons, considering the chain’s lack of name recognition in the U.S. Competition in the mornings has also been intensifying. Taco Bell, for instance, recently launched a national breakfast menu and Starbucks revamped and expanded its breakfast offerings.
