A neighborhood reacts to the shoot-out that occurred early Sunday morning at 1803 S. Monroe Ave., where seven people were wounded, three of them critically. The street was subjected to a “barrage of gunfire,” said Officer Travis Holley, spokesman for the Roswell Police Department. The ferocity of the gun battle is evidenced by “the vehicle we located riddled with gunfire across the street from the local hospital,” said Holley. The shoot-out resulted from what Holley called an altercation during a party. He would not say if the altercation were violent. “It was significant enough that he came back to try and retaliate and immediately was met with return fire.” A neighbor told the Daily Record, “The police got it wrong. He was drinking with them and they beat him to a pulp. He went to get help.” See NEIGHBORS, Page A3

Gov inks tax break for border rail hub, chile law

AP Photo

Gov. Susana Martinez shows off a chile ristra in Hatch, Tuesday, shortly after signing into law a measure aimed at protecting New Mexico’s chile crop from false advertising.

SANTA FE (AP) — The state will offer a tax incentive for a planned Union Pacific rail hub in southern New Mexico under legislation signed into law Tuesday by Gov. Susana Martinez. The company expects to start construction this summer on a rail center on 2,200 acres in the Santa Teresa area, which is west of El Paso, Texas, and just north of the Mexico border. Union Pacific plans to spend more than $400 million on the project, including a facility to fuel locomotives, a switching yard, buildings for crews and a

terminal for loading and unloading cargo containers that can be used on ships, trucks and trains. It’s planned as a major hub on a Union Pacific route from Los Angeles to El Paso. The governor traveled to Santa Teresa to sign the legislation, which offers a tax deduction on locomotive fuel as an incentive for the project. Union Pacific estimates there will be about 3,000 construction jobs through 2015, and about 600 permanent jobs when the rail center is at full capacity in 2025. “We must encourage

businesses to invest here by implementing policies that make financial sense for job creators,” Martinez said in a statement. “This legislation is an important step toward putting our economy back on track and making New Mexico a friendlier place to do business.” Under the new law, the company will pay no New Mexico taxes on diesel for its locomotives starting in July 2013, if construction on the rail project is under way. The tax break is expected to cost the state See BORDER Page A2

Shutdown showdown Character Counts! honors

WASHINGTON (AP) — Prodded by an insistent President Barack Obama, Congress’ top two lawmakers sought to reinvigorate compromise talks Tuesday aimed at cutting tens of billions in federal spending and averting a partial government shutdown Friday at midnight. There was at least a hint of flexibility, accompanied by sharply partisan attacks and an outburst of shutdown brinksmanship. According to Democrats, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, suggested at a White House meeting that fellow Republicans might be able to accept a deal with $40 billion in cuts. That’s more than negotiators had been eyeing but less than the House seeks.

The speaker’s of fice declined comment, and Boehner issued a statement saying, “We can still avoid a shutdown, but Democrats are going to need to get serious about cutting spending, and soon.” For his part, Senate Majority leader Harry Reid sounded an accusatory note. “I hope the Republicans do what the country needs, not what they believe the tea party wants,” he said at the Capitol. Boehner and Reid met privately later in the day. While there was no indication of substantive progress, there was a marked change in tone afterwards. See SHUTDOWN, Page A3

RPD seeks person of interest ‘NATO isn’t doing enough’ JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER

The Roswell Police Department is seeking Billy Joe Hammonds, 19. His last known address is 407 S. Sycamore Ave. Hammonds is described as 5-feet, 10-inches tall, 130 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Hammonds has been identified as person of interest in connection with the Feb. 25 burglary of Blount’s Firearms, 1200 N. Virginia Ave. No charges have been filed against Hammonds, said RPD spokesman Of ficer Travis Holley. The burglary occurred around 7 p.m. when RPD responded to an alarm call at the recently opened business. “We were there within minutes,” Holley said. Officers arrvied to discover the front door smashed and firearms stolen. According to the owner, the value of the merchandise removed was in excess of $3,000. Holley said this is one of the biggest thefts of firearms he has seen in his 13 years in law enforcement. “It’s pretty brazen to break into a gun shop,” said Holley. Holley was unwilling to reveal the number or types of guns stolen. “We have to be careful not to reveal anything of evidentiary value.” He also noted that firearms are often targeted as valuable items in residential burglaries. He referred to an instance where a firearm stolen from Roswell was recovered near Dallas after it was used in a gangstyle shooting that resulted in a murder. “We’ve recovered them from all over the United States,” Holley said, but he noted that the number of guns stolen versus the number of guns recovered is low.

“We make every attempt to give them back to the owner. ... We need to remind people to record those serial numbers. We have an evidence locker full of firearms and no way to return them to their rightful owners without the serial numbers.” Anyone with infor mation about the Blount Firearms burglary or Hammonds’ whereabouts is asked to contact Detective Keith Rightsell of the Criminal Investigations Division, 624-6770. Detectives are also asking for the public’s help in gaining information about the March 29 burglary of the offices of GoldenSeward and Kelly CPAs, 601 W. Second St, where a large amount of electronics was taken. Detectives have no suspects and would like assistance. Anyone with information about this case is also asked to contact Rightsell. To remain anonymous, people with information about either of these two cases can call Crime Stoppers, 1-888-594-TIPS (8477). Callers to Crime Stoppers may be eligible for a reward.

Teacher gives kids grown-up recipes EMILY RUSSO MILLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

Students received an education on how to bake edible undergar ments and make pomegranate wine from scratch when a teacher at Berrendo Middle School accidentally handed out age-inappropriate worksheets to her technology class, Monday. The school received several phone calls from angry parents who reviewed the photocopied article from Wired maga-

zine called “The Hungry Scientist Handbook: A Lab in Every Kitchen.” The article lists five recipes for domestic scientists to concoct using common household items, including the items in question. Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources Mike Kakuska said the teacher did not review the article before making it available to students. Kakuska said it was one of several articles students could choose to read as a make-up

assignment, if the student had missed an assignment earlier in the semester. “She just screwed up,” Kakuska said, adding that “By that teacher’s admission, (she) did not check ... those articles, and there were a couple of them in there that were not appropriate.” Kakuska said the teacher immediately called the parents of her students to apologize once she realized her mistake. emiller@roswell-record.com

BENGHAZI, Libya (AP) — A rebel military leader lashed out at NATO Tuesday, saying it was falling short in its mission to protect Libyan civilians. The alliance said ruler Moammar Gadhafi’s forces position heavy weapons in populated areas, preventing some airstrikes. Abdel-Fattah Younis, chief of staff for the rebel military and Gadhafi’s former interior minister, said he was asking the opposition’s leadership council to take their grievances to the U.N. Security Council, which authorized force in Libya to stop government troops from wiping out the anti-Gadhafi uprising that began Feb. 15. NATO forces “don’t do anything” even though the United Nations gave them the right to act, Younis said. He said bureaucracy means that NATO strikes sometimes come eight hours after rebels’ have communicated targets. “The people will die and

this crime will be on the face of the international community forever. What is NATO doing?” Younis said. NATO last week took control over the international airstrikes that began March 19 as a U.S.-led mission. The airstrikes thwarted Gadhafi’s efforts to crush the rebellion in the North African nation he has ruled for more than four decades, but the rebels remain outnumbered and outgunned and have had difficulty pushing into government-held territory even with air support. The government pushed back rebel forces in a strategic oil town to the east Tuesday, while rebels claimed they fended off an attack by Gadhafi’s forces in one of a string of opposition-controlled towns southwest of Tripoli, the capital. The rebels have maintained control of much of the eastern half of Libya since early in the uprising, while Gadhafi has clung to much of the west.

DEMS CHOOSE PARTY OFFICERS

The Democratic Party of Chaves County elected Fred Moran as its party chairman late last month. The county organization convened March 31 during its biannual convention to elect party officials and make appointments. Moran, who recently ran an unsuccessful bid to unseat Ron Lethgo as Chaves County assessor, will now serve as chairman of the organization. He says the group will focus its efforts on growing the Democrat voice in the county. “We want to grow the party so that it has a respectful showing in the county,”

Moran said. “We need to get out the vote. ... (and) make efforts to help the party grow.” The Democratic Party of Chaves County also elected Robbie White as first vice chairwoman. Michael Trujillo, Virgil Beagles, Jimi Gadzia and Leanna Young were chosen as state central committee members.

The group also appointed Gary Hartwick as treasurer and will announce in the future appointments for positions of second vice chairman and party secretary.

Mexico, provide nearly $1.3 million for a jobs training program and re-establish a tax credit for research and development costs by small businesses. The research credit expired in 2009. The governor also signed into law legislation that makes it illegal to advertise any product as New Mexico chile unless the hot peppers are grown in the state during a stop at the Pepper Pot Restaurant in Hatch, a southern village that bills itself as the Chile Capital of the World. Martinez says New Mexico’s chilies are a core part of the state’s culture and economy and that the new law will ensure people around the world know that the best chile comes from New Mexico. Hatch Rep. Andy Nunez sponsored the bill during the recent legislative session. He says the measure is intended to bring honesty to advertising and to protect growers in New Mexico.

Gadhafi has been putting out feelers for a cease-fire, but refuses to step down as the opposition is demanding. On Tuesday his government announced a new foreign minister: Abdelati al-Obeidi, who has been in Europe seeking a diplomatic solution. He replaces Moussa Koussa, who defected last week. Al-Obeidi’s deputy Khaled Kaim said the opposition council doesn’t represent most Libyans and that al-Qaida is exploiting the crisis. He accused nations supporting the airstrikes of supporting terrorism “by arming the militias, by providing them with materials, and the coalition’s decision to starve 85 percent of the Libyan population, while there was another course for solving this crisis, which was the political course.”

announced Boehner and Reid would meet later in the day. If they can’t sort out their differences, he said, “I want them back here tomorrow.” And if that doesn’t work, he added, “we’ll invite them again the day after that. And I will have my entire team available to work through the details of getting a deal done.” Obama, eager to regain the confidence of independent voters as he seeks a new term, said the American public expects that its leaders “act like grown-ups, and when we are in negotiations like this, that everybody gives a little bit, compromises a little bit in order

to do the people’s business.” At issue is legislation needed to keep the government running through the Sept. 30 end of the budget year, and a desire by all sides to avoid being blamed politically if there is a shutdown. New to power, House Republicans grabbed onto the need for a spending bill last January as a way to force spending cuts on reluctant Democrats and the president. An initial House-passed measure, which included $61 billion in cuts and dozens of unrelated provisions, drew a veto threat from Obama and fell short of the 60

votes needed for passage in the Senate. At the same time, several Senate Democrats joined with Republicans to reject an alternative measure to continue spending at current levels — a post-election signal that they, too, wanted to see cuts take effect. In the weeks since, Congress has approved two stopgap bills, containing a total of $10 billion in cuts at Republican insistence, and Obama has signed both into law. In the interim, talks on the longer -term bill have grown increasingly acrimonious. Democrats said Boehner would eventually

have to part company from tea party-backed lawmakers who propelled Republicans to power, and they accused him of reneging on an agreement to cut $33 billion. In return, Republicans accused Democrats of resorting to budget gimmicks to make it look like they favored deep cuts, when in fact they sought higher spending. On Monday, Boehner infor med rank-and-file Republicans he would seek passage of a new stopgap bill, a week-long measure that includes $12 billion in cuts and funds the Defense Department through the end of the year.

Obama rejected it. He said he would sign an interim bill only if one were needed to get the paperwork together on a broader agreement and pass it through both houses. “What we’re not going to do is to once again put off something that should have gotten done several months ago,” he said. Obama didn’t say so, but that was an implied jab at Democrats, who had control of both houses of Congress last year and were unable to pass a budget or any of the 12 annual spending bills.

One of the recipients of the Character Builder Award, which is presented to four adults in the community, said she sees everyday examples of how the program makes a stronger community. “I think it’s a great thing,” said Juliana Halvorson, one of this year’s character builders. “I don’t feel deserving ... but I’m honored to say the least,” she said. “I think the program is a part of life (in Roswell).” Halvorson was nominated for the award by Mayor Del Jur ney, who agreed that the program plays a large role in Roswell and in the county. “This is a great opportunity to give recognition to people that make Roswell the great community that it is,” he said.

Republican U.S. Senate race could get very exciting SANTA FE — The GOP U.S. Senate race to replace Sen. Jeff Bingaman in 2012 promises to be full of excitement if it ends up a face-off between former U.S. Rep. Heather Wilson and Lt. Gov. John Sanchez. Wilson already has announced. Sanchez is officially “considering” a run. But he slipped recently and revealed his decision already has been made. If he does run, the race should be even livelier than the 2008 battle between Rep. Wilson and Rep. Steve Pearce. All the elements of suspense will be present: a lieutenant governor who looks strong in the primary election, a former U.S. representative who could be strong in the general election and a governor who clashes with both despite having close ties to both. Gov. Susana Martinez, who gives indications of national political aspirations in 2012, will have to share the spotlight with

her lieutenant governor and the for mer head of her transition team. It won’t be easy — or pretty. Gov. Martinez has given indications she doesn’t like to share the spotlight. Soon after her election, she sent new Lt. Gov. John Sanchez on a fishing expedition to every county in the state to find out what businesses want. The results were to be turned into legislation. No legislation in the 2011 session was publically advanced as being a result of that tour. I received no news releases or saw any media reporting on the visits of Lt. Gov. Sanchez when he

stand out as being the tea partytype of conservative he now says he is. Rep. Wilson had 10 years in the U.S. House to build a moderate record, somewhat similar to that of Sen. Pete Domenici. It may have been Pete to whom Sanchez was referring when he called Wilson a relic of the past. I hope so. It is difficult for a person of 73 to hear a 50-year-old referred to as a relic of the past. Domenici may be a relic but he never had any trouble winning elections. That is what Wilson is talking about when she says she is the only Republican candidate capable of winning statewide election. Republican winners of high public office in New Mexico during the past 80 years all have been rather moderate. Besides Domenici, they include Govs. Ed Mechem, Dave Cargo, Garrey Carruthers and Gary Johnson. If John Sanchez does win the

journeyed to each county. Could the tour have been primarily to keep the lieutenant governor out of the way while Martinez put together her government? One definite result of the tour was to strengthen Sanchez’s ties in every county of the state. It is highly likely that Sanchez met with every single GOP county chair man in the state. Sanchez has run for statewide office four times already so he already knows the state. But this tour was as a public official and it is certain to have done him much good. Although Bingaman had not made his retirement announcement yet, Sanchez, 48, knew he would have future political opportunities even if Bingaman ran again. Sanchez says he’s the true conservative in the Republican primary. He had only two years in the New Mexico House to establish a record but he didn’t

GOP senatorial primary, you can be sure the Democratic candidate, whoever that might be, will tie every unpopular act by the Martinez administration directly to Sanchez, just as Martinez tied Democratic gubernatorial candidate Diane Denish to Gov. Bill Richardson. You might call it a game of payback. As I have often noted, no New Mexico lieutenant governor has ever been part of a governor’s administration. They always are kept out of the loop. But that reality never has been believable to the voting public. For that reason, lieutenant governors have always had trouble moving to higher office. I can find only one governor, one U.S. House member and one state Supreme Court member who have moved up since statehood.

Obama energy plan

President Barack Obama says forcing automakers to squeeze even more miles per gallon out of the vehicles they produce is the cornerstone of his initiative to secure America’s energy future. So Detroit will again pay the price for Washington’s penchant for economic central planning. Obama’s promise is to save more oil over the next decade than the United States currently imports from unsavory regimes. To get there, he will more actively manipulate the private marketplace, involving federal regulators in everything from the type of cars and trucks built to picking which “clean energy” industries bloom with the help of taxpayer dollars. Rather than reducing oil imports by increasing domestic production, the effort will be focused on forcing automakers to stretch fuel-saving technology well beyond what the industry believes possible. Even before Obama’s speech last week, automakers were balking at the tougher fuel standards expected this summer for 201725. The automakers have agreed to a fleetwide average of 34.1 per gallon by 2016. Getting there will require them to reduce the size and power of their vehicles and sell large numbers of hybrids and plug-ins. But the sticking point is that consumers haven’t warmed to either hybrids or smaller cars. And plug-ins remain costly, and will likely become even more so under Obama’s plan to snatch them up for the federal fleet. The option for automakers, and particularly Detroit’s Big Three, will be to make far fewer of the still high demand light trucks and sport utility vehicles. There goes their profit margin. We’ve been down this road before under prior administrations mandating costly fuel economy rules that haven’t reduced the nation’s oil demands and which have imposed billions in costs on the auto industry. The industry is spending billions to meet the 2016 targets; the bar should not keep moving higher without giving them an opportunity to recoup their investments. It’s not just automakers that will suffer. Oil companies are in the cross hairs as well. Obama has conjured up yet another wealth transfer scheme, this time confiscating the “windfall profits” of oil producers to give some families an “emergency energy rebate” aimed at easing the pain of the higher costs his policies are creating. The windfall profits tax and the loss of tax breaks for oil exploration will limit domestic production and further restrict oil supplies. And despite pushback from Congress, industry groups and consumers, Obama is sticking to his cap-and-tax carbon reduction dreams, pledging to implement a program that reduces greenhouse gases by 80 percent by 2050, and forces Americans to get 25 percent of their energy from costly alternative sources by 2025. He can accomplish that, but only by throttling the American economy and choking off energy supplies. Guest Editorial The Detroit News DEAR DR.

Spreading the wealth the right way

During the 2008 presidential campaign when candidate Barack Obama told “Joe the Plumber” that he wanted to “spread the wealth around,” it sounded to a lot of conservatives like socialism: “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need,” in the words of Karl Marx. There is a kind of wealth spreading, however, that ought to meet the political litmus test of conservative Republicans, liberal Democrats and radical Independents.

debate. The moral issue in executive pay is whether management deserves these high salaries while employees are laid off, or denied pay increases. Last April the Baltimore Sun reported that Stanley-Black and Decker in Towson, Md., announced plans to lay off 4,000 of its 38,000 employees. Yet, according to USA Today, Stanley-Black & Decker CEO John Lundgren made more than $32 million in 2010, up 253.1 percent from the previous year. U.S. Bancorp chairman Richard Davis was paid $16.1 million in 2010, a 143.0 percent compensation boost. In January, U.S. Bancorp announced that 64 workers in its Milwaukee office would be cut.

least in part due to the lack of pay increases, I would feel morally obligated to take less money. I would ask the chief financial of ficer of my company to share some of my wealth with loyal employees so that they could continue caring for their families. One doesn’t have to be a liberal who believes in income redistribution to see the unfairness in disproportionate pay. Think of the kudos and favorable press coverage that would come to a corporate chief who shared his wealth, rather than lay off employees. It could change not only the media coverage of big business, but also the way the public perceives the super rich. Heck, some of them might even start voting Republican! Five CEOs saw a slight decline in compensation, according to the USA Today/Governance Metrics international data, but they still ear ned more than most lottery winners receive. President Obama has spoken of some of these CEOs as not “needing”

the money they get. Again, that is a subjective judgment. What he should be doing is shaming those companies that lay off workers while paying their top management such exorbitant salaries and benefits. Stockholders ought to demand that no competent worker should be laid of f if a CEO earns above a certain amount of money. Stockholders also have a moral responsibility beyond the dividends they receive. Making money is a noble American objective, making a living is a nobler one. Corporations ought to have enough decency and compassion to make sure no worker is let go solely to increase the bottom line or pad the boss’s pockets with more money than he (or she) can ever hope to spend in a lifetime.

THE WEST/OBITUARIES/RECORDS

Companies use microbes to turn Wyo. coal into gas

GILLETTE, Wyo. (AP) — New scientific research has a pair of energy companies betting that the future of the U.S. natural gas industry lies in persuading microorganisms to treat old coal deposits like all-you-can eat buffets. Coal, researchers have found, is full of microbes that consume the fossil fuel and break it down into methane gas. Two companies want to take advantage of this naturally occurring phenomenon on a large scale to create vast amounts of natural gas in energy-rich places like Wyoming. “Once you figure out the recipe that feeds the bugs and gets them reactivated, it’s pretty simple,” said Bob Cavnar, chief executive of Luca Technologies. Luca and Ciris Energy have begun experimenting with using this type of microbe-friendly formula in gas wells drilled into coal deposits years ago. The companies have been spiking the wells with substances including calcium, magnesium, phosphate and glycerol, which encourage the microorganisms to reproduce, feed and release the coveted methane gas. The hope is to get old and nearly tapped-out coal-bed methane wells to double or perhaps triple gas production. The process works on a smaller scale, said Michael Urynowicz, a researcher at the University of Wyoming who has studied using microbes to turn coal into methane. “The question is, at the field scale, how economically viable it will be?” he said. Some worry it will contaminate the groundwater that supplies more than 6,000 area homes. What Luca calls “nutrients,” Jill Morrison of the Powder River Basin Resource Council calls “chemicals.” “They make it sound like it’s yogurt and granola or something. It’s not,” Morrison said. “I’m not saying that maybe this technology doesn’t

have some promise at some point. But I don’t think we’re there, and we don’t know enough about it.” The experiment comes in the midst of a natural gas boom that has seen companies in several states just begin to tap vast gas deposits only now being recognized for their enormous potential. To many, those reserves look all the more attractive while the Japanese nuclear crisis raises worries about nuclear energy and the Gulf oil spill casts doubt on tapping the nation’s best remaining oil deposits. But drilling for gas can require multimillion-dollar investments to bore thousands of feet into the ground. Such wells produce a lot of gas quickly, Cavnar said, but production falls off before long, requiring companies to drill more and more sites to remain profitable. If successful, the microbe technology could help prolong the future of Wyoming’s gas industry, which supports tens of thousands of jobs and provided $1.1 billion in tax revenue to the state in 2009. Luca officials cast aside environmental concerns, saying its process for tapping into natural gas is more eco-friendly and ef ficient than drilling because the wells, roads and pipelines already are in place. Acquiring methane from existing coal beds requires very little new infrastructure, Luca says, and puts to use byproduct groundwater by pumping the water back down into the coalbed methane wells. About 30,000 coal-bed methane wells have been drilled in the Powder River Basin in northeaster n Wyoming over the past 15 years. About half are nearly or completely tapped out. “We think the source here is huge for us to be able to go in and reactivate those wells and start producing gas again,” Cavnar said.

microbes — no one knows exactly how many species are down there — live in the thick coal seams several hundred feet beneath the rolling prairie in northeast Wyoming. Luca has been doing DNA research to identify the fewer than 100 species which play different roles in breaking down the complex organic molecules in coal into a single simple molecule, said Roland DeBruyn, the company’s vice president of engineering. “The microbes, they’re really working in communities,” DeBruyn said. “They’re kind of taking dif ferent pieces of the chain apart. And in the end, you’re left with the smallest pieces of the chain, which is basically methane.” The other company looking to tap into the new source of energy, Ciris Energy, got a $4.8 million matching state grant in 2009 to build an above-ground pilot facility that would employ microbes to turn coal into methane. Wyoming has a substantial interest in such investments: About 40 percent of the U.S. coal supply comes from Wyoming, providing more than $2 billion in economic benefit to the state each year. Amid concern about climate change, the federal government estimates 15 percent of total U.S. carbon dioxide emissions come from burning Powder River Basin coal. Burning methane, however, yields half as much carbon dioxide as burning coal. The Ciris Energy plant remains on the drawing board. Meanwhile, the company is waiting for state regulators to finish writing rules for methane far ming before experimenting with any more gas wells. “It would be small-scale to start. Sixteen wells to 64 wells, something in that range,” said Robert Downey, president and founder of Ciris Energy. Already the company’s environmental record is less than spotless. Wyoming regulators recently fined Ciris Energy more than $26,000 after a whistleblower reported that Ciris put chemicals in the ground without a state permit; Downey said another company with an interest in the wells was supposed to get the permit. For their part, Luca of ficials compare the approach to taking vitamins. “If you take one a day, then that’s good,” said Roland DeBruyn, Luca’s vice president of engineering. “If you eat the whole bottle, you might have a serious health problem because that’s just too much.”

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You notice just how lucky you are right now. Put your best foot forward, and watch everything — well, nearly everything — tumble as you would like, if not better. Taking a risk today is OK. Going to extremes could backfire. Tonight: Indulge in a favorite pastime. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Take a hint from Aries. Recognize just how far you push others. Step back and know that you can undo any of the damages — and that is exactly what you should do. Be kind to someone who serves as a benefactor or a very caring individual in general. Tonight: Just wish upon a star. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Recognize what is happen-

JACQUELINE BIGAR YOUR HOROSCOPE ing around you. Continue to watch and observe while clearing your mind of as many judgments as you can. You could be taken aback by how much comes up for you. Tonight: You might try airing out some of your thoughts with a trusted friend or respected individual. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You definitely know where you are going and how to handle a key situation. Take charge, as others sense your savvy in this area. A meeting could prove to be instrumental. A friend — most likely male — wants special time or attention. Tonight: Where the gang is.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You will come out on top if (1) you decide to assume the lead and (2) if you explain how you perceive an event or situation. You see what others don’t. Your high level of charisma speaks for itself. Tonight: Could be a late one. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Start combining your mind and emotions more often, especially when dealing with partners. As odd as it seems, soon you will need to be a mind reader in order to figure out what another person wants. Let others think they dominate. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.” LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Your knowledge helps others achieve more of what they want. Realize everyone has limits, but at this point a key associate doesn’t appear to be restricted in any way, shape or form. Enjoy being a follower. Tonight:

Icahn, Dish, debtholders vie for Blockbuster

NEW YORK (AP) — Billionair e investor Carl Icahn, Dish Network and a group of debtholders were the three remaining bidders for movie-r ental chain Blockbuster on Tuesday at U.S. Bankruptcy Court in New York. The bankruptcy auction will decide the fate of the Dallas movie-rental chain and could decide whether it will survive at all. The bidding was expected to continue well into the evening. It was not clear when it would finish. After several rounds of bidding, the last bid by the group of debt holders called Cobalt Video Holdco, of $308.1 million was deemed the best when the courthouse closed for the day. The auction was continuing at law firm Cadwalader Wickersham & Taft, where the proceeding

was closed to the public. Another bidder, SK Telecom, dr opped out after two r ounds of bids. An expected joint bid by two liquidation firms, Gordon Brothers Group and Hilco Merchant Resources, did not materialize. Though the early bidding took place in open court, the pr ocess was har dly action-packed. Lawyers, bidders and others took extended breaks over the day to revise their bids and negotiate. Icahn himself made an appearance in court at midday. The successful buyer or buyers could continue to operate the chain in full or part or liquidate the company, pressing “stop” on the stores that brought movie night to millions of families. Blockbuster is already a shadow of its former self.

Roswell Daily Record

When Blockbuster, based in Dallas, filed for bankruptcy protection, it was down to 3,000 stores, less than a third of the peak of 9,100 in 2004. There are about 2,400 curr ently open with plans to close about 700 more by midApril. Blockbuster used to dominate the U.S. movie rental business. But it lost money for years as that business declined because customers shifted to Netflix Inc., video on demand and DVD rental kiosks. Icahn was part of the group of debtholders that pr ovided Blockbuster financing to operate while in bankruptcy in September. Everyone in the group except for Icahn made the initial “stalking horse” bid in February to buy Blockbuster for $290 million.

Take the lead. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Others simply demand to run with the ball. That is the only way they will accept what is happening. Your ability to clear out a problem right now needs to take a backseat. You understand a lot more than what is obvious. Stay mum. Tonight: Don’t push your luck. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Whether dealing with a risk or a loved one, you must be carrying a magic wand, as everything somehow works out beautifully for you and everyone else concerned. Wherever you are, at work or off, makes no difference. Tonight: Love the moment. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Remain upbeat. You seem to have an unusual resilience right now, which does make a difference in various situations. You might want to rethink an offer that involves an invest-

ment. Tonight: Light up the moment. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You have such a convincing manner that someone who decided earlier to give you a “no” in response to a request will say “yes.” Make sure this person won’t change his or her mind later, or keep it in mind that this is a possibility. Tonight: Head home — all smiles. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You could be mixing apples and oranges, despite the fact that you are sure you aren’t. Remain optimistic, but do a better job of listening to associates. If everyone is saying the same thing, but not what you think, look again. Tonight: Hanging out is fun.

Third ‘Dark Knight’ to film in Pittsburgh PITTSBURGH (AP) — Criminals beware, Batman will be on the beat this summer in Pittsburgh. Film director Christopher Nolan, who has helmed the two previous Batman films — starring Christian Bale as the caped crime fighter and his alter ego, Bruce Wayne — said Tuesday the Pennsylvania city will host filming for a third film for at least a month. “Pittsburgh is a beautiful city. We have been able to find everything we were looking for here and I am excited to spend the summer in Pittsburgh with our final

installment of Batman,” he said in a statement, adding that he finally settled on the city because of its architecture and diverse sampling of locations. Mayor Luke Ravensthahl said the decision was “another example of the growing film industry in our community and we will be rolling out the red carpet for them.” The city is no stranger to film productions, having been the location for more than 100 film and television products since 1990, including “I Am Number Four” and Kevin Smith’s “Zack & Miri Make A Porno.” The Pittsburgh Film

Of fice is a non-pr ofit economic development agency that markets southwest Pennsylvania as a location for filming. “Film pr oduction means jobs for Pennsylvanians, it’s as simple as that,” Of fice dir ector Dawn Keezer said. “A single film can mean millions of dollars and many local jobs. A franchise as prestigious as Batman opens our region up to an entirely new audience as filmmakers and studio executives experience southwestern Pennsylvania.” She said filming could last between four and six weeks and will start in July.

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS BEATEN GIANTS FAN MAY HAVE BRAIN DAMAGE LOS ANGELES (AP) — A San Francisco Giants fan who was beaten at Dodger Stadium after last week’s opening game shows signs of brain damage and remains in critical condition, a doctor said Tuesday. Meanwhile, detectives were looking into unconfirmed reports that the same suspects struck other Giants fans minutes before the attack that left Bryan Stow in a coma. Stow, a 42-year-old paramedic and father of two from Santa Cruz, remained in critical but guarded condition at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center. He suffered a severe skull fracture and bad bruising to his brain's frontal lobes, said Dr. Gabriel Zada, a neurosurgeon. At one point, doctors had to remove the entire left side of his skull to ease pressure on his brain. The pressure is now normal but Stow remains in a coma from his injuries and from sedation to reduce his brain activity, Zada said. “There is evidence of brain injury and dysfunction,” Zada said. It was too early to make a prognosis but such injuries can affect memory, thinking ability and even personality, Zada said. “It’s going to be a long recovery process,” he said. Stow was in a parking lot heading to a taxi stand after the Dodgers’ 2-1 victory over the Giants on March 31 when two shaven-headed young men in Dodgers clothing began taunting and swearing at him and two other fans, who were all wearing Giants gear, police said. Stow was punched in the back of the head. He fell down, bashing his head on the pavement, and was kicked before the attackers ran off. They fled in a four-door sedan driven by a woman who had a boy with her, police said. Composite sketches of the men have been released. The City Council on Tuesday voted to offer a $50,000 reward for information leading to arrests.

NMMI boys ace Goddard, 9-0 LAWRENCE FOSTER RECORD SPORTS REPORTER

The Energizer bunny is synonymous with never stopping or slowing down. The NMMI boys tennis team could replace the bunny, because it keeps going and going and going. The Broncos continued their tear as they swept Goddard, 9-0 on Tuesday. Goddard’s girls team beat a short-handed NMMI team, 9-0. At first singles, NMMI’s Jose Gonzalez had his hands full against Goddard’s Tristan Collar, particularly in the first set. Collar opened the match with serve and didn’t drop a point in taking a 1-0 lead. Gonzalez answered back with a jack-of-all trades effort in his service game. On the first point, Gonzalez had Collar running the baseline before he ripped a winner down the line. The Colt went up 30-0 on a powerful serve that Collar couldn’t handle. Collar won the next point, but Gonzalez hit a beautiful drop shot on the ensuing point to take a 40-15 lead. On game point, Gonzalez evened the match at one with a put away at the net.

Collar once again held serve without dropping a point and Gonzalez did the same on his service game to knot the score at two. It became evident that the first person to break serve would have a big advantage and the fifth game was played with a match point intensity. Collar fell behind 30-0, but battled back and had two consecutive set points, but he had unforced errors on both points and three deuces later, Gonzalez had broke his serve and captured the momentum. Gonzalez won three of the final four games to win the first set 6-3. NMMI coach Jim Kelly said that the first set gives Gonzalez a chance to feel out his opponent and figure out how to beat him. “That’s the way Jose plays,” he said. “When I say that, I mean he will play a game and he will figure (the opponent) out. He will win the first set (6-5 or 6-4) and then in the next set it will be love. He has all the shots. “He’s cerebral and will take you out. If the opponent isn’t doing anything, he will go ahead and put you See BUNNY, Page B2

Aggies drop Notre Dame for title

AP Photo Texas A&M head coach Gary Blair stands inside the hoop after cutting the net after his team's 76-70 win over Notre Dame in the women's NCAA Final Four college basketball championship game in Indianapolis, Tuesday.

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Skylar Diggins turned the NCAA tournament into a bit of a coming out party. S h e' ll g et an ot h er chance next year for the cor on at i on sh e r ea ll y wants. Notre Dame's dynamic sophomore guard scored 23 points against Texas A&M but committed six turnovers against the stifling Aggies, including one that sealed A&M’s 76-70 victory in Tuesday night's n at ion al c ha mpi on sh i p game. The budding star who led her prep team to four In dian a st at e ch am p ionship games, won Indian a ’s M iss B a sk et b all award two years ago and made the all-tournament t ea m eve nt ually su ccumbed to A&M’s quickness. “We didn’t handle their pressure,” she said, fighting back tears. “We turned it over too much. I don’t know if it was nerves or what. We just didn’t handle the pressure.” In the closing minute,

Diggins lost the ball after get t in g d ou b le- t eam ed near the free-throw line, m issed a ju m p er t h at would have kept it a one p ossess ion gam e an d wast ed too m u ch tim e looking for an open teammate.

She struggled again, too, midway through the secon d h alf wh en N ot r e Dame blew a seven-point lead. “We really dug ourselves a hole early,” coach Muffet McGraw said. “We were very nervous. I thought we wer e a lit t le flu st er ed offensively and completely out of synch.” That has been a common thread throughout the postseason for Texas A&M, which limited each of its first four opponents

NMMI baseball splits pair with Texico RECORD STAFF REPORTS

If there ever were a sports version of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, the NMMI boys baseball team was it on Tuesday. In the Colts’ first game against T exico, they won 10-0 in five innings, but in the nightcap they allowed 16 runs and lost 16-15. In Game 1, NMMI jumped out to a 6-0 lead after the first two innings. The Colts took advantage of an err or and two wild pitches to score five in the second. They finished the game with a four -run fifth, which included a two run single by Caleb Saiz. Saiz also picked up the win for NMMI, pitching all five innings while striking out four and allowing just three hits. Blue Steele and Joseph Stearns led the Colts with two hits each in the first game. Trent Barclay allowed eight hits and 10 runs in picking up the loss for Texico. The second game started out just as the first had ended for NMMI. The Colts held Texico off the board in the first inning and put up seven runs of their own in the home half of the inning to take a 7-0 lead. That’s when the wheels started to fall off for NMMI, however.

Texico scored at least one run in the final six innings, including seven in the seventh to take a 1614 lead. In its last at bat, NMMI was able to close the gap to one, but a strikeout by John Bonhoff with a runner on second ended the game. Harshul Ganjawla led NMMI with three hits in Game 2. Bryce Villaneuve drove in three runs for the Colts, while Stearns was charged with the loss in the nightcap. The split made NMMI’s record 9-6.

Artesia 16, Roswell 1 Artesia jumped on Roswell early and never let up in its five-inning win on Tuesday. The Bulldogs allowed just one hit to the Coyotes. Roswell’s only run came from Robert Gonzalez, who scored on a throwing error. Roswell coach Dane Kyser said that his team has a long way to go. “We have a really long way to go,” he said. “We were missing some kids tonight too because we had some guys that missed practice. It is a tough situation. We went with what we had, the nine kids that were there on Friday. The ones that are dedicated, we’re going to go with them.”

David Herrera was charged with the loss for Roswell.

away then.” Gonzalez figured something out because in the second set, he cruised to a 6-1 victory. Goddard coach Joe Harton said that the match was good for Collar. “He is playing tough and he just has to work on consistency more than anything,” he said. “He keeps playing and keeps building off of it. Confidence wise, he can play with (Gonzalez). (Gonzalez) just had experience on him.” In other singles action, NMMI’s Freddy Sanchez beat Konnor Kundomal (second; 6-0, 6-1), Jorge Garza downed Goddard’s Darren Powers (third; 6-0, 6-1), the Colts’ Jerry Estrella knocked off Andrew Wiser (fourth; 76, 1-6, 6-2), Luis Zaragoza topped the Rockets’ David Sweet (fifth; 6-0, 6-1) and Maricio Moncada beat Eric Lamm (sixth; 6-2, 6-4).

NFL awards $1 million to players' charities

NEW YORK (AP) — The NFL has awarded $1 million in grants to the charities of nearly 90 current and former players. The league said Tuesday that star quarterbacks Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Ben Roethlisberger and Philip Rivers were among those receiving money for their foundations. NFL Charities has given more than $17 million to player foundations over two decades, and that didn't change with the lockout this year. Brees’ foundation gets $10,000 to build an athletic facility at a New Orleans high school destroyed by Hurricane Katrina. Manning's charity receives $12,500 for its Peyton’s Pals program, which provides opportunities for 15 to 20 teens in Indianapolis. Ravens center Matt Birk was presented the maximum $50,000 to support two programs that encourage and improve reading by at-risk Baltimore-area children. Grants were awarded to 87 of the 95 foundations that applied. Other current and former players receiving grants include Nnamdi Asomugha, Derrick Brooks, Cris Collinsworth, Doug Flutie, David Garrard, Tony Gonzalez, Torry Holt, Jim Kelly, John Lynch, Anthony Munoz, Chad Pennington, Junior Seau, LaDainian Tomlinson, Mike Utley, Troy Vincent, Kurt Warner and Steve Young.

Augusta has never been kind to world No. 1 Kaymer

AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Martin Kaymer got a little jolt of adrenaline when he turned onto Magnolia Lane for the first time this year. He’s the guy everyone else is chasing. He’s No. 1. Then, back to reality. Major season begins at Augusta National, a course that’s bedeviled the 26year-old German in his young career. Three times, he’s played the Masters. Three times, he’s failed to make it to the weekend. “I haven’t done well here,” Kaymer said Tuesday. “But, you know, there’s always a first time.” He’s already had a couple of big breakthroughs. Last August, Kaymer won the PGA Championship in a playoff for his first major title. Then, after an eight-shot romp at Abu Dhabi, he made the final of the Match Play in February to vault past Lee Westwood for the top spot in the world rankings.

“I wouldn’t say it’s important, but it’s a nice feeling,” Kaymer said. “I was not thinking that it would happen (this) soon. Obviously, my expectations, they were high, but I was not expecting myself to be No. 1 by the Masters.” The top ranking comes with an additional burden. The world’s best player isn’t supposed to be missing the cut in one of the biggest events. With that in mind, Kaymer decided to change things up, hoping a different routine might produce a better result at the Masters. He traded the PGA Tour event in Houston for a week at Sage Valley, prepping his game at a more leisurely pace on the Tom Fazio-designed course right up the road from Augusta National. “Obviously, I didn’t really play well here, never made the cut. So I needed to change something,” Kaymer said. “If you miss the cut three times, then I think it cannot get really worse.” Indeed, it can’t get much worse. Kaymer has broken par only once in six Augusta rounds. Three times, he’s struggled around the course with a mediocre score of 76. Forget the back nine on Sunday afternoon. He’s never made it to the front nine on Saturday morning. What’s the problem? Kaymer used to think that his game just didn’t set up well for Augusta National. He’s never been particularly adept at drawing the ball, producing shots that will bend gently from right to left on holes such as the fifth, and the ninth, and the 10th, and the 13th, and ... well, you get the idea.

Goddard 6, Lovington 3 LOVINGTON — Danielle Hubbard went all seven innings and limited Lovington to three runs as Goddard picked up a road win on Tuesday. Mandie Varela went 2 for 4 for Goddard. “It was a pretty good game overall,” said Rocket coach David Lawrence.

Eunice 23-18 Lake Arthur 0-0 EUNICE — The Lake Arthur Panthers opened its season with a pair of tough losses on Tuesday. Despite the scores, first year coach Kristy Rogers said that her green team played well. “They actually played r eally well,” she said. “I think nerves got to them for the most part. About half of our team, this is their first year playing softball.” Lake Arthur’s next game is a doubleheader on the road against Artesia’s JV team on Monday. First pitch is set for 4 p.m.

He’s even thought about how much easier it would be to tackle the course as a lefthander — specifically, defending champ and three-time winner Phil Mickelson. “I wish I could play the other way around,” Kaymer said. Mickelson chuckled at the thought. “I would love Martin to play this tournament left-handed,” Mickelson quipped. “I don’t think the golf course favors one side or the other. There are a couple of holes that I feel more comfortable on left-handed. But there are a couple of holes that I feel more uncomfortable playing left-handed.” Besides, Kaymer has settled on another reason for his Augusta woes. “I was not sharp enough in my short game,” he said. “I missed a lot of short putts the last few years. I didn’t make a lot of upand-downs. I only missed the cut by one or two shots always. If I could improve my short game this week, then obviously it’s no problem to make the cut.” Like most Germans, Kaymer grew up playing soccer. It wasn’t until he was 14 or 15 that he decided to focus all his energies on one sport. Golf got the nod, but he still wonders where soccer might’ve taken him. “I think I would have become good,” Kaymer said. “I don’t know if you would have seen me in 2006 in Germany playing the World Cup, but I think I would have been decent. Any sport that I approach, I try to become one of the best. That’s just my nature.” Hard to argue with the results. Kaymer had a brilliant year in 2010, winning four events and breaking the European Tour record for earnings in a season. His confidence is off the charts, and he hasn't even reached the prime of his career. Now, he just has to figure out Augusta National. “If you win tournaments like (the PGA Championship), it gives you the motivation and the self-belief that you can win any tour-

nament," he said. "I have struggled here, but still there's a reason why I am No. 1 in the world.”

DEAR ABBY: I have been dating a wonderful woman I’ll call “Shannon” for a year and a half. She has most things that I want in a partner, and I often feel she’s better than I deserve. We’re in our early 30s, and Shannon is saying she will soon need some kind of idea where we are going in the future. I’m having trouble with the notion of committing to her forever because I’m still attracted to other women. (I haven’t been involved with anyone else since starting to date her.) More worrisome, I’m afraid I’ll meet someone I’m more attracted to a few years down the road. How can I be sure that Shannon will make me happier than anyone else I might meet in the future? CONFLICTED IN WASHINGTON STATE DEAR CONFLICTED: You say Shannon has “most” things you want in a partner. Yet I sense that you’re not as physically attracted to her as you think you should be. If this woman does not appeal to you, then face it — she’s not for you.

Dear Heloise: How long can I keep SUGAR AND FLOUR in a tightly closed container? Can I store them in a freezer? L. Mills in Houston

Both sugar (granulated) and flour (all-purpose) can be stored in sealable plastic bags or airtight glass or plastic containers, and both can be frozen. However, before using, you will want to let them warm to room temperature. Interesting tidbit: Sugar has an indefinite shelf life. For best flavor, though, it is recommended that you use brown sugar within six months of opening. Flour should be used by the “better if used by” date for optimum results.

DEAR ABBY UNIVERSAL PRESS SYNDICATE

Of course, regardless of how attractive one’s partner is, there are no guarantees that anyone — male or female — won’t meet someone who is different and appealing at some point in the future. But those who are mature and committed usually realize they have enough invested emotionally in their marriage and children that they can resist temptation. It’s called being an adult.

Today’s Crossword Puzzle

out of lanes without signaling, she is often talking on her cell phone (which is not illegal in our state). I’d be happy to drive. I have a comfortable, reliable car and a safe driving history. I have offered, “I’d be glad to drive so you’ll be free to give your full attention to important phone calls.” None of my efforts has worked. I don’t want to be rude or insulting — and certainly don’t want to create an awkward situation with my boss — but I don’t want to keep putting myself at risk with her terrible driving. I’d be grateful for some advice. RIDING SHOTGUN IN MIAMI

DEAR RIDING SHOTGUN: It’s time for another — more direct — chat with your boss. You should not have to worry every time you get into a car with her that you might not arrive in one piece. Tell her: “When you talk on the phone while you drive, it makes me very nervous. I’m concerned about my safety as well as the safety of others when you do it. If you don’t want me to drive so you can make your calls, I will meet you at our destination.” der, a quick substitute is 1/4 teaspoon baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar. However, this does not store well, so don’t make too much at one time. Another hint: How to tell if baking powder is still active? Put a teaspoon of baking powder in 1 cup of warm water. If it bubbles, it is still good! Heloise ★★★★★

Dear Heloise: I think that the following hint was used by you many years ago, but it is well worth repeating. After use, put your steel wool in a plastic bag and store it in the freezer. It will not rust. — Eric B., via e-mail Yes, this is a great hint that, thanks to your letter, we are happy to share again! Heloise

Dear Heloise: As usual, I found a great recipe in one of the many magazines in the doctor’s waiting room, but there was no way to copy it, and I won’t tear it out. Then I thought of using my phone to take a picture of the recipe. It took several photos, but I got it all and can enlarge each one enough to copy to my recipe book. Now, no more missed recipes! Linda Baggett, Big Sandy, Texas

Linda, you never know where you will find a good recipe. So keeping this in mind will allow you to have a copy of the recipe no matter where you are. Heloise

Dear Heloise: My husband and children occasionally come home with smoothies in disposable plastic cups. These usually have a rounded-dome lid with a hole at the top for a straw. I save these lids to use as funnels when I fry bacon or have other greasy, messy pans. I just let the grease cool a little, put the “funnel” on a recycled jar and pour the grease. Then I don’t feel the need to wash the funnel, and I don’t spill down the sides of the jar. A Reader, via e-mail

Dear Heloise: Another suggestion for keeping buttermilk on hand is to buy powdered buttermilk. Buttermilk pancakes taste as if we used fresh buttermilk! It stays good in the refrigerator for a couple of years, too! D.P. in Virginia

How did it start? In the mid-1800s, the United States was less than 100 years old. But the country was growing quickly. In the northern states, more factories and businesses provided jobs to people. There was less farming and more industry. These steady jobs made the economy, or the buying and selling of products and services, more stable.

Toasted Pineapple

War breaks out

In the South, the economy was based on growing crops such as cotton and tobacco. African slaves were used to do the back-breaking work in the fields of plantations, or large farms. Plantation owners depended on good crops for their success, so slavery was important to that part of the country.

Fort Sumter in South Carolina was a U.S. military fort. Civilian soldiers from South Carolina told the major in charge to surrender, but he would not. Early on the morning of April 12, 1861, Confederate soldiers began firing on Fort Sumter, and the Civil War had begun.

Jefferson Davis

The 16th president of the United States had a big job in managing the war. Some of the generals he chose for the Union army didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work out. Finally, Lincoln assigned Ulysses S. Grant to lead the army, and the Union won the war in 1865.

Davis was born in Kentucky and served in the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate. His training at West Point and military service led him to be the president of the Confederacy.

When the war started, Lincoln asked Lee to lead the U.S. armies, but Lee wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fight against his home state, Virginia. Instead, he became a general for the Confederacy. He fought several successful battles, but in April 1865 he surrendered to Ulysses S. Grant in Virginia.

Born in Ohio, Grant attended West Point AND SERVED IN THE -EXICAN !MERICAN 7AR In the Civil War, he was known for his aggressive battle strategies. In 1868, Grant was elected president of the United States.

African-Americans Lead the Way Against Slavery &REDERICK $OUGLASS Douglass, a former slave, pressured Lincoln to free the slaves. His newspaper, the North Star, argued against slavery. He also wrote books about his time as a slave.

Lincoln was elected in November 1860. By the time of his inauguration in March 1861, seven states had seceded, or separated, from the Union:

Harriet Tubman Tubman was born a slave. As an adult, she ran away to Philadelphia and started the Underground Railroad, which helped hundreds of slaves escape to freedom.

What Do You Know? What do you know about the Civil War? There are thousands of personal stories from the war. Maybe your family treasures include letters or diaries saved from forefathers on the field of battle. More than 3 million men fought in the war. In some families, the war caused brothers to fight against brothers. In fact, four of Abraham Lincolnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s brothers-in-law fought for the Confederacy. ! RECENT EXHIBIT AT THE .ATIONAL !RCHIVES h$ISCOVERING THE #IVIL 7AR v EXPLORES many unusual records and facts about THE WAR 4HE EXHIBIT IS TRAVELING AROUND the U.S. We share some of the items from THE EXHIBIT HERE

All the following jokes have something in common. Can you guess the common theme or category?

photo courtesy National Archives

Did you know â&#x20AC;Ś

Did you know â&#x20AC;Ś Emma Edmonds came to the United States from New Brunswick, Canada. When the Civil War began, she wanted to fight for her new country, so she cut her hair and bought some menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clothing. She enlisted as Frank Thompson. Emma, as Frank, served as a nurse before volunteering to be a Union spy. She disguised herself Emma Edmonds as an African Seelye and worked at the Confederate front, learning a lot about the size of the army and other important facts. She later wrote a book about her #IVIL 7AR EXPERIENCES CALLED h.URSE AND 3PY IN THE 5NION !RMY v

Did you know â&#x20AC;Ś There was a draft for the Civil War. A draft requires men to report for military service if they are called. In 1863, the Union Army needed more soldiers, but many men didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to fight. The U.S. Navy didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a draft; instead, it attracted young men with a promise that the Navy would pay better than the Army.

Did you know â&#x20AC;Ś Most people who died in the Civil War were killed by disease. Soldiers were brought close together from different regions, and they had little resistance to new diseases. Healthy food was hard to find, and soldiers were often cold and wet.

The Confederate seal included an image of George Washington. The father of our country was included on the seal because he led the revolution of the United States against Britain. Washington was a Southerner from Virginia. The seal shows him on horseback, similar to a statue of him in Richmond, Va.

Did you know â&#x20AC;Ś Some men ended up fighting for both the Union and the Confederacy. For EXAMPLE 0RIVATE (ENRY Scott started out as a Confederate soldier. He was captured and taken prisoner by the Union. After he reached a prisoner-of-war camp in Maryland, he took an oath to join the U.S. Volunteer Infantry. But soon after, he deserted, or ran away. The Civil War even affected events around the world. In 1864, Confederate ships were attacking U.S. merchant ships around the globe from Europe to Asia. To help stop this, the U.S. ambassador to China asked that country not to let Confederate ships into Chinese waters.

* A sesquicentennial is a 150th anniversary.

Southern states established the Confederate States of America. Their capital was in Richmond, Va. This first national flag of the CSA was often mistaken for the Unionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Stars and Stripes.

In the North, people began to question the idea of slavery. The Republican Party, which formed in 1854, was dedicated to stopping the spread of slavery. When Abraham Lincoln, a Republican, was elected president in 1860, people in the South became worried that Congress would make slavery illegal. They thought states should be able to decide for themselves about the issue.

One hundred and 50 years ago, the United States began its most difficult test. On April 12, 1861, Confederate soldiers attacked a U.S. military fort near Charleston, S.C., and a war began that tore the nation and many families apart. On this sesquicentennial* of the beginning of the Civil War, The Mini Page studies the reasons for the war and some of the individual stories that came out of the four years of battle.

The question of slavery

Kansas joined the Union on Jan. 29, 1861, just before the war began. This flag, with 34 stars, includes the new state. It was used until 1863.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;And the war cameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;
