House OKs higher worker pension payments
SANTA FE (AP) — Public employees and educators will pay more for their pension programs while government lowers its contributions under a nearly $111 million budget-balancing proposal approved by the House on Monday. By trimming government pension costs, the measure cuts state spending to help balance the budget. Supporters say the pension changes will prevent possible worker furloughs or layoffs. “Without this legislation or something similar ... the budget doesn’t

work,” said House Republican Whip Donald Bratton of Hobbs. The bill passed the House on a 43-26 vote and was sent to the Senate. Under the legislation: — About $49 million will be saved by requiring state workers, public school employees and college faculty to contribute an extra 1.75 percent into their pensions next year while the state reduces its payments by a similar amount. This will expire after one year. Supporters say a 2 percent reduction
in the federal Social Security withholding tax will offset the pension change, which otherwise will reduce a worker’s take-home pay. — The state did a similar 1.5 percent pension swap two years ago and that will be continued for two more years, saving $42 million annually. — Postpone for the next two years the pension contribution increases mandated by a 2005 law to shore up an educational retirement program. The state will save more than $19 million next year
and almost $39 million in the following fiscal year. Approval of the bill came after the House rejected a proposal to make permanent the 1.5 percent pension swap. Supporters said it would improve the state’s longterm finances. “It’s only fair and reasonable to the rest of the hundreds of thousands of workers across the state of New Mexico that help fund this very generous retirement program to make this shift and make this shift permanent,” said Bratton.

Against Libya’s Group gathers to protest bill rebels, Gadhafi controls the skies RAS LANOUF, Libya (AP) — Repeated airstrikes by Libyan warplanes on Monday illustrated the edge Moammar Gadhafi holds in his fight against rebel forces marching toward the capital: He controls the air. After pleading from the uprising’s leaders, Britain and France began drafting a U.N. resolution for a nofly zone in Libya that could balance the scales. President Barack Obama warned that the U.S. and its NATO allies are still considering military options to stop what he called “unacceptable” violence by Gadhafi’s regime. NATO decided to boost flights of AWACs surveillance planes over Libya from 10 to 24 hours a day, the U.S. Ambassador to NATO Ivo Daalder said. “I want to send a very clear message to those who are around Colonel Gadhafi.

A group of local residents gathered Monday to peacefully protest a bill prohibiting the issuance of driver’s licenses to illegal aliens. The bill in question passed the New Mexico House of Representatives by a 42-28 vote on Friday. Nearly 40 people attended the peaceful vigil held at St. John’s Catholic Church, 506 S. Lincoln Ave. A march the group had planned did not take place due to the high winds. Felipe Botello passed out literature calling attention to the fact that immigrants pay taxes in New Mexico and help the economy. He pointed out that the people who will be the most influenced are parents with children. “They have to respect the (traffic) laws. If they’re not going to get a driver’s license, they can’t get insurance,” he said.

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Former Republican Rep. Heather Wilson made official Monday what had been rumored for days — she’s running for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Democratic Sen. Jeff Bingaman. Wilson announced her decision to seek the GOP nomination at an Albuquerque paper supply warehouse packed with more than 100 supporters. The warehouse was decorated with a huge American flag behind the podium. Wilson’s family, and a who's who of New Mexico Republicans, flanked her as she made her announcement. Introduced by for mer U.S. Sen. Pete Domenici, Wilson criticized President
Barack Obama and Democrats in Congress, and said the nation's free market system, economy and tradition of limited government are under assault. “If we stand by and do nothing, history will judge our generation as the beginning of America’s decline,” she said. Domenici said she is “experienced, ready and can do the job.” More than 40 Republican officials and former officials also said they would support her candidacy. Former New Mexico congressman and Interior Secretary Manuel Lujan Jr. said the crowd for Wilson’s announcement was important to show her level of support to other Republi-
cans and perhaps persuade them not to challenge her in the 2012 primary. The 50-year -old Wilson represented an Albuquerque-area congressional district for five terms. She gave up the seat in 2008 to make an unsuccessful run for the GOP nomination for the state’s other U.S. Senate seat, left vacant when Domenici retired. Wilson lost the 2008 GOP primary to Steve Pearce, who ran for Senate rather than seeking re-election in New Mexico’s 2nd District. Pearce lost in the general election to Democrat Tom Udall.

Obama restarts Guantanamo trials
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama reversed course Monday and ordered a resumption of military trials for terror suspects at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, making his once ironclad promise to close the isolated prison look even more distant. Guantanamo has been a major political and national security headache for the president since he took office promising to close the prison within a year, a deadline that came and went without him ever setting a new one. Obama made the change with clear reluctance, bowing to the reality that Congress’ vehement opposition to trying detainees on U.S. soil leaves them nowhere else to go. The president emphasized his preference for trials in federal civilian courts, and his administration blamed congressional meddling for closing of f that avenue. “I strongly believe that the American system of justice is a key part of our arsenal in the war against al-Qaida and its affiliates, and we will continue to draw on all aspects of our justice system — including (federal) courts — to ensure that our security and our values are strengthened,” Obama said in a statement. “Going forward, all branches of gover nment have a responsibility to come together to forge a strong and durable approach to defend our nation and the values that define who we are as a nation.” The first Guantanamo trial likely to proceed under Obama’s new order would involve Abd al-Rahim alNashiri, the alleged mastermind of the 2000 bombing of the USS Cole. Al-Nashiri, a Saudi of Yemeni descent, has been imprisoned at Guantanamo since 2006. Defense of ficials have said that of around 170 detainees at Guantanamo, about 80 are expected to face trial by military commission. On Monday, the White House reiterated that the administration remains committed to eventually closing Guantanamo — which is on a U.S. Navy base — and that Monday’s actions were in pursuit of

that goal. But the outcome Obama wants seemed even more distant. Critics of the military commission system, which was established specifically to deal with the detainees at Guantanamo, contend that suspects are not given some of the most basic protections afforded people prosecuted in American courts and that serves as a recruitment tool for terrorists. Obama’s administration has enacted some changes to the military commission system while aiming to close down Guantanamo. More than two dozen detainees have been charged there, but the charges against a number of them were dismissed in the wake of Obama’s order in January 2009 to halt the commission process. So far six detainees have been convicted and sentenced, including Ali Hamza al-Bahlul, Osama bin Laden’s media specialist who told jurors he had volunteered to be the 20th Sept. 11 hijacker. He is serving a life sentence at Guantanamo. Meanwhile, the first Guantanamo detainee tried in civilian court — in New York — was convicted in November on just one of more than 280 charges that he took part in the al-

Qaida bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa. That case ignited strident opposition to any further such trials. Another case is that of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the professed mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, who had been slotted for trial in New York before Obama bowed to political resistance and blocked the Justice Department’s plans. With the military tribunals set to restart, it’s likely Mohammed will be put back in that system to face trial alongside other admitted 9/11 conspirators. Under Obama’s direction Monday, Defense Secretary Robert Gates issued an order rescinding his January 2009 ban against bringing new cases against the terror suspects at the Cuba prison. Gates said the U.S. must maintain the option of prosecuting alleged terrorists in U.S. federal courts, but in his order Monday he also said the review of each detainee’s status had been completed and the commission process had been reformed to address legal challenges. House Ar med Services Committee Chair man Howard “Buck” McKeon, RCalif., said he was pleased with Obama’s decision to
restart the military commissions. But he said the administration must work with Congress to create a trial system that will stand up to judicial review. Monday’s announcement also included a process for periodically reviewing the status of detainees held at the prison. That’s an effort to resolve one of the central dilemmas at Guantanamo Bay: what to do when the government thinks a prisoner is too dangerous to be released but either can’t prove it in court or doesn’t want to reveal national security secrets by trying to prosecute him? The answer, the White House said, is that the U.S. will hold those men indefinitely, without charges, but will review their cases periodically. However, if a review determines that someone should be released, there’s no requirement that he actually be freed. That decision on such a process had been expected for some time and was roundly criticized by rights groups. Tom Parker, a policy director at Amnesty International, condemned Obama’s new order as reinstating a much discredited commission system that will rely on periodic reviews similar to what was done during the Bush administration.

New owner sought for historic warship in Philly
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — A historic warship in Philadelphia is looking for a new owner. The USS Olympia, a one-of-a-kind steel cruiser from the Spanish-American War, needs $2 million to $5 million in immediate repairs to stabilize it and an additional $10 million to $20 million for dry dock and restoration. The Independence Seaport Museum says it’s looking for someone to take ownership of the National Historic Landmark. The museum posted a transfer application Monday on its website. It’s looking for a state, city or charitable organization that will assume ownership of the Olympia. Individuals and for-profit groups are not eligible to apply. The museum is holding a summit at the end of March for potential buyers, and museum officials are hoping to have the transfer wrapped up by November 2012. They said they cannot afford the repairs and that the Olympia, purportedly the world’s oldest steel warship still afloat, will be scrapped or scuttled if a new owner is not found. The 344-foot-long protected cruiser ideally should have been dry-docked every 20 years for maintenance, but it has not been out of the water since 1945 and its hull has extensive damage at the water line. Its caretakers have said that without major repairs, the Olympia could sink at its moorings on the Delaware River. Since taking stewardship of the floating museum from a cash-strapped nonprofit in 1996, the Independence Seaport Museum has spent $5.5 million on repairs, inspections and maintenance.

Scientists skeptical of meteorite alien life claim
WASHINGTON (AP) — NASA and its top scientists are distancing themselves from a space agency researcher who concludes that he found alien bacterial life in meteorites that were collected many decades ago. Richard Hoover of NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala., claims that he found fossils that look like the remnants of bacteria in at least two meteorites. His research paper, published online Friday in the Journal of Cosmology, concludes these must have come from outer space. But his claim has been roundly disputed by other scientists. “There has been no one in the scientific community, certainly no one in the meteorite analysis community, that has supported these conclusions,” NASA Astrobiology Institute Director Carl Pilcher told The Associated Press Monday. “The simplest explanation for Mr. Hoover’s measurements is that he’s measuring microbes from Earth. They’re contamination.” In the paper, Hoover states that chemical analysis makes it unlikely to be contamination. Instead, he wrote they are “indigenous fossils” from outer space rather than something found on Earth.
Scientists inside and outside the space agency have criticized and even ridiculed Hoover’s study, his credentials and the journal itself. They say that Hoover works in solar physics and doesn’t have expertise in astrobiology. Hoover and the editor of the journal have not responded to e-mails and phone messages from The Associated Press. In a statement on the journal’s web site, editor -inchief Rudy Schild of Harvard University, called Hoover “a highly respected scientist and astrobiologist with a prestigious record of accomplishment at NASA.” On Monday, NASA issued a statement by Paul Hertz, chief scientist in the science division, questioning the validity of claims that have not gone through peer review. NASA said Hoover failed to advise the agency he had submitted the paper to the Journal of Cosmology after it failed to get published in a more established peer-reviewed journal. “NASA cannot stand behind or support a scientific claim unless it has been peer -reviewed or thoroughly examined by other qualified experts,” Hertz said in the statement. “This paper was submitted in 2007 to the
International Journal of Astrobiology. However, the peer review process was not completed for that submission.” The Journal of Cosmology bills itself as peer-reviewed. In his note, Schild wrote that he has asked “100 experts” and “over 500 scientists from the scientific community” to review the paper with their commentary to be posted online, after the paper was released. Typically, scientific journals obtain peer review before deciding whether to publish new research. The paper’s findings were first made public by Fox News. Pilcher said the cosmology journal “has published papers in which the authors assert that life could not possibly have started on Earth and must have started in interstellar space 10 billion years ago,” he said. That theory is not one held by a majority of mainstream scientists, he said. Similar claims about life in a meteorite found in Antarctica were made by other NASA scientists in 1996 and announced by President Bill Clinton on the White House front lawn. But they were not backed up by follow-up research and remain in dispute. Back then, NASA trumpeted the finding, but not so this time.

Egypt swears in new Cabinet
CAIRO (AP) — Egypt’s military rulers on Monday swore in a new Cabinet that includes new faces in key ministries, responding to protesters’ demands that the new government be free of stalwarts of ousted President Hosni Mubarak. The new Cabinet, headed by Prime Minister Essam Sharaf, a U.S.-educated civil engineer, is expected to be met with the approval of the pro-reform groups that led the 18-day uprising that forced Mubarak to step down on Feb. 11. State TV showed members of the government taking an oath during Monday’s swearing-in-ceremony before the head of Egypt’s Armed Forces Supreme Council, Field Marshal Hussein Tantawi. The caretaker government’s main job and challenge will be to help steer the country through reforms and toward free elections. Among the most significant changes in the Cabinet designed to meet with protesters’ demands, Sharaf named a new interior minister. Maj. Gen. Mansour elEssawy, a former Cairo security chief, replaces Mahmoud Wagdi, who held the post for less than a month. The Interior Ministry is in charge of the security forces. El-Essawy, according to a report by the state news agency, pledged after meeting Sharaf Sunday that he would work to restore security and reduce the role of the hated State Security agency. Protesters have over the past few days rallied outside about a dozen State Security offices across the nation, in many cases stor ming the buildings, including the agency’s main headquarters in the Cairo suburb of Nasr City. The protests followed reports that agents were burning and shredding documents to destroy evidence that would incriminate them in possible cases of human rights abuses. On Sunday, army soldiers fired in the air and used stun guns to disperse hundreds of protesters who attempted to storm the State Security offices inside the Interior Ministry in downtown Cairo. The protesters said they wanted to see for themselves whether the building had secret cells and to stop officers from destroying documents. Forty-seven police officers and soldiers were jailed after an investigation found they were among those who burned documents and destroyed computers at the Nasr City building, the attorney general’s office said Monday. The State Security agency, which employs about 100,000 of Egypt’s 500,000-strong security forces, is blamed for the worst human rights abuses against Mubarak’s opponents. Dismantling the agency has been a key demand of the protest groups that led the uprising. In another sign of the simmering unrest in Egypt, thousands of Coptic Christians protested in Cairo Monday to demand an end to the discrimination they say the minority faces. The crowds were also angry over a dispute between a Christian and a Muslim family south of Cairo over the weekend that resulted in the deaths of two people and the torching of a church. Egypt’s military promised to rebuild the church, but the protesters said they wanted more steps to improve the status of Christians. Among the other new faces in Egypt’s Cabinet was Nabil Elaraby, a veteran and popular public figure who replaces Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul-Gheit.
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — The United States is beginning to decide what its responsibilities will be in Afghanistan after U.S. combat troops leave, Defense Secretary Robert Gates said Monday, but he ruled out permanent military bases in the strategically important country. President Hamid Karzai wants U.S. military support even as he heavily criticizes the current U.S.led military campaign for being too quick on the trigger. Nine Afghan boys died in an accidental air strike last week, reopening a raw issue. Gates said the U.S. is interested in keeping a military presence in this for mer al-Qaida haven beyond the planned end of combat in three years. At a news conference with Karzai, Gates said a team of U.S. of ficials would arrive here next week to begin negotiations over a new compact for U.S.Afghan security relations after 2014, when all international combat forces are supposed to be gone. U.S. forces have been in Afghanistan since 2001, and President Barack Obama has repeatedly said the war is not openended. The Pentagon chief also said the U.S. and its allies will be “well positioned” to begin withdrawing forces in July this year, although he gave no specifics. The withdrawal would continue through 2014, with Afghan forces gradually taking over the fight against the Taliban-led insurgency. Gates’ promise to draft a post-2014 “strategic partnership” with this poor, unstable nation is meant to reassure the mercurial Karzai, who fear that he and the country’s fragile civilian government might be overthrown without U.S. military backing. It is not clear how far reaching or binding the document would be. Vexing questions remain about whether Kabul will be ready to govern by 2015 and prevent a return to extremist Taliban rule. Gates opened his remarks by offering a personal apology for the chil-

dren’s deaths last week, an incident that had prompted Karzai on Sunday to issue a statement calling the deaths unacceptable and reject an apology issued by U.S. Gen. David Petraeus, the top commander of American and NATO forces in the country. “This breaks our hearts,” Gates said of the deaths. He called it a setback, too, for U.S. ties to the Afghan people — a relationship that is central to Petraeus’ strategy for countering the Taliban insurgency by winning the loyalty of ordinary Afghans. Asked by a reporter whether he accepted Gates’ apology, Karzai said, “I trust him fully when he says he’s sorry.” He added that words alone from even the most senior American defense official was not enough for Afghans tired of civilian casualties. “They want it not reduced — they want it stopped,” Karzai said. The top U.S. commander in the area where the nine Afghan boys were killed, Ar my Maj. Gen. John Campbell, told reporters traveling with Gates that the incident was regrettable, but he also said without offering any details, “there is a lot
more to that story.” He said it is still being investigated. Campbell said 90 percent of civilian casualties in his area of responsibility are caused by the Taliban. Gates arrived Monday on a two-day visit intended to give him a first-hand sense of how Obama’s war strategy is faring, and whether it is on track to sufficiently weaken the Taliban while building up the capacity of Afghanistan’s own army and police. “While no decisions on numbers have been made, in my view we will be well positioned to begin drawing down some U.S. and coalition forces this July, even as we redeploy others to different areas of the country,” he said. He immediately added a reassurance to Karzai that, “we are not leaving” this summer. “Come September, October and beyond, there will still be substantial numbers of coalition troops still partnering with Afghans,” he said. Karzai and Gates both mentioned that their discussions included the topic of negotiating a strategic partnership, which in Karzai’s eyes is a way to parlay the enormous U.S. investment in blood and treasury since
2001 into the foundations of long-term stability. “The specifics remain to be negotiated,” Gates said. “But I would say that if the Afghan people and the Afghan government are interested in an ongoing security relationship,” with some level of U.S. military presence, ‘’The United States I think is open to the possibility of having some presence here in terms of training and assistance,” possibly using Afghan bases. “We have no interest in permanent bases” for the U.S., he said. “But if the Afghans want us here, we are certainly prepared” to stay. Negotiations over a post-war security agreement with Afghanistan recall the struggle to fashion a security compact with Iraq three years ago, although these talks are unlikely to be as contentious. In both cases the United States had an interest in ensuring that chaos did not follow a U.S. withdrawal, allowing a new foothold for alQaida. What’s different is that the U.S. has a written agreement with Iraq that requires all U.S. forces to depart at the end of this year unless the Iraqi government reopens the question and invited the U.S. to stay.

Behind the curtain of the House meltdown
Little girls in flamenco costumes filled a ladies room in the state capitol one day last week, primping before they danced in the rotunda, a gentle appeal to preserve funding for the arts and culture. These diminutive, ruffled lobbyists are one of many such waves coursing through the Roundhouse, all with a message. They’re the backdrop to a lot of political theater and explain, in part, the meltdown we saw last week in the House and its precedent-setting outcome. On the legislative session’s first day, the tea party held a rally outside. For the next week, we saw a succession of education proponents, including early childhood advocates with small children in tow. Human Rights Day produced a massive rally in support of undocumented immigrants — and their driver’s licenses. They wore T -shirts saying, “We chose New Mexico too.” Another day, hun-

dreds of the elderly handed out heart-shaped AARP fans. The film people made a dramatic showing in T-shirts reading, “We are New Mexico.” Meanwhile, citizens stream through lawmakers’ offices. An elderly woman with a walker inches through a cramped waiting room. College students in school colors plead with their legislator to not raise tuition. Contrary to what you’ve heard, citizens’ voices are heard. Usually. Last week, Rep. Andy Nuñez succeeded in plucking his bill from the committee that tabled it and
dragged it onto the House floor, a maneuver the longest-serving members could only remember occurring once. We may not always agree with their decisions, but committees filter, study and often improve bills. Some die because they weren’t well thought out, others because they’re unnecessary or fly against majority opinion. HB 78 would repeal driver’s licenses for undocumented immigrants. The unconventional move, coupled with the divisive subject matter, led to 13 hours of emotional speechifying. In the six or seven hours I heard, two words popped up repeatedly: “my constituents.” Nuñez insisted he’d heard from hundreds of constituents demanding this bill. Rep. Eliseo Alcon said he’d heard from his own constituents and many of Nuñez’s. “They’re the people who clean your hotels and pick your chile,” Alcon told the Hatch farmer. Pundits look for the wizard
behind the curtain, and in this case the wizard is in plain sight. Gov. Susana Martinez campaigned on this issue (as did her opponent), and wants to deliver. Critics think she’s pushing a wedge issue to raise her profile as a national Republican candidate, but about this time in a session, previous governors have flexed their muscles to get bills passed. The difference is that none have upended the process itself. Democrats expended a lot of lung capacity trying to rip open Nuñez’s curtain, but he performed like a coached witness in a big trial, with some polished, prepared Republicans defending him. Some, no doubt, assumed Nuñez acted out of revenge, having paid a price for failing to dethrone the House speaker. His transformation began earlier. In his 10 years as a representative, Nuñez has carried water- and agriculture-related bills and championed the occasional liberal
cause. In the 2010 session his House memorial declared solidarity with the people of Ciudad Juarez. In November he won a close election against a Republican who now chairs the Las Cruces tea party. One day after refusing to vote for House Speaker Ben Lujan, Nuñez introduced the bill in question. In rapid succession, he changed his party affiliation to Independent, agreed to change his bill to suit the governor, and saw his bill tabled. Maybe it was about his constituents. The result nonetheless is a precedent that will smack everyone in the teeth. Now anybody who disagrees with a committee decision can short circuit the process. It’s a long way from the wishes of most constituents. They still want lawmakers to stop this foolishness and work together to solve problems. © New Mexico News Services 2011

Military funeral protests
On Wednesday, the U.S. Supreme Court held in an 8-to-1 decision that the Constitution’s free speech guarantees protect the despicable demonstrations staged at military funerals by a Kansas family group obsessed with homosexuality. In Snyder v. Phelps et al., Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. wrote that the First Amendment applied because the protests addressed matters of public concern. At the same time, a dissenting opinion by Associate Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. raised serious questions for media organizations considering coverage of such demonstrations. The court affirmed an appeals court ruling that Albert Snyder, the father of Marine Lance Cpl. Matthew Snyder, could not be awarded monetary damages for the profound psychological pain he suffered as a result of protests at his son’s funeral. Matthew Snyder, 20, was killed in the line of duty in Iraq in 2006. The funeral in his hometown of Westminster, Md., was targeted for demonstrations by members of the Phelps family of Topeka, Kan., who have conducted similar protests for the last 20 years. The extended family operates through an organization it calls a church and asserts that the deaths are divine punishment for U.S. government policies and tolerant American attitudes toward homosexuality. The signs at the protests, which took place under police supervision in a fenced area 1,000 feet from the services, used the disgusting language characteristic of the Phelps group, including “Thank God for Dead Soldiers,” “God Hates Fags” and “God Hates the USA.” (The sexual orientation of the deceased is irrelevant to the Phelps family. As it happens, Lance Cpl. Snyder was not gay.) “The placards,” Justice Roberts wrote, “highlighted issues of public import — the political and moral conduct of the United States and its citizens, the fate of the Nation, homosexuality in the military,” and others. The court did not rule on laws in more than 40 states that attempt to regulate such protests. Last year, a lower court ruled that three Missouri statutes were unconstitutional. Justice Alito’s dissent devoted considerable attention to the Phelps family’s media strategy. “This strategy works because it is expected that (the Phelps’) verbal assaults will wound the family and friends of the deceased and because the media is irresistibly drawn to the sight of persons who are visibly in grief.” The Phelps’ advance publicity campaign, he wrote, “guaranteed that Matthew’s funeral would be transformed into a raucous media event.” Indeed, Albert Snyder never saw the hurtful protest signs at his son’s funeral. He saw them for the first time on television coverage that night. The Phelps’ vile protest antics are not new or newsworthy. News organizations should think long and hard before becoming patsies in Phelps’ publicity schemes and, in doing so, inflict even more pain and suffering on grieving military families.

American Library Association honors outstanding books LORETTA CLARK ROSWELL PUBLIC LIBRARY
This week is Teen Tech Week, sponsored by the Young Adult Library Services Association. The 2011 theme is “Mix & Mash @ Your Library.” Teen Tech Week encourages teens to use libraries’ nonprint resources for education and recreation, and to recognize that librarians are qualified, trusted professionals in the field of information technology. Teens are invited to the library for a special teen event today at 7 p.m. to participate in a “Dance Dance Revolution.” March is National March Into Literacy Month, celebrating the love of reading among children and promoting awareness of literacy as a fundamental skill for success. It encourages reading among children through a variety of activities and events. Promoting good literature is one way to promote reading. Each January, the American Library Association selects books that are deemed special and many awards are given. The most familiar awards are the Newbery, Caldecott and Printz awards.

the Youth Media Awards. The Newbery medal goes to the author of the most distinguished contribution to children’s literature for the year. This year’s winner is Clare Vanderpool’s “Moon Over Manifest.” In 1936, in the midst of the Great Depression and the Dust Bowl, Abilene Tucker is sent by her father, Gideon, to stay with a preacher in the small Kansas town of Manifest while he works on the railroad. After arriving in Manifest, Abilene finds a hidden stash of letters and treasures left by someone named Ned to someone named Jinx. Abilene’s curiosity is peaked and she’s determined to find out the story of the two young boys. Help comes in the form of the local diviner, Miss Sadie, who knows the tale of the boys. Abilene is anxious to find out if one of these boys is her elusive father. Readers join Abilene as she follows the story of Ned and Jinx back in 1917 and as she currently lives in 1936. This is a story of family, friendship and history and even a little mystery.
Dear Editor: On behalf of the Music and Media Ministry of Grace Community Church, I would like to express my sincere appreciation to those who attended the most recent Fabulous February Follies and to the individuals and merchants who so graciously donated door prizes.

and over -the-counter pain relievers for mild cases. As symptoms exacerbate, heavier prescription drugs might follow. When those fail to offer relief from pain, drugs such as codeine might be ordered. Some medications, such as lidocaine patches, antidepressants and antiseizure drugs, have shown promise when prescribed for nerve pain. On the home front, I recommend you stop smoking if you currently do so, exercise regularly if your physician approves, massage your feet to improve circulation, and avoid activity such as crossing your legs when sitting, a habit that can worsen the nerve damage.

The Caldecott medal is awarded to the artist of the most distinguished picture book of the year. This year’s medal goes to “A Sick Day for Amos McGee,” illustrated by Erin E. Stead and written by Philip C. Stead. Amos McGee is a zookeeper who has an everyday routine which includes playing chess with the elephant and reading stories to the owl. But one day Amos McGee was so sick he couldn’t get out of bed! The animals at the zoo missed him so they decided to bring the zoo to Amos; they show up at his door ready to play chess and read a story to him. The illustrations are done with quiet, muted colors and look deceptively simple but are in fact amazingly detailed and beautiful. The Printz Award is given for excellence in young adult literature. This year’s winner is “Ship Breaker” by Paolo Bacigalupi. “Ship Breaker” takes place sometime in the future where people have to scavenge for any and all materials left behind from a previous time.

Retaining physicians
Dear Editor: Dear Mayor Jurney: On behalf of everyone here at Roswell Regional, we extend to you our sincere thanks for your recent column on the retention of physicians in Roswell. The overwhelming majority of physicians who practice primarily at Roswell Regional have been in this community for 20 years or more, and as far as I know, they do not plan to leave. The physicians who practice here are free to seek privileges to practice at Eastern or at any other hospital of their choosing, and we make no attempt to restrict them from doing so. We certainly want patients to have their choice of hospital, and we are happy for physicians to have that same

She is scheduled for another colonoscopy soon, and we wonder whether there is a point at which this uncomfortable procedure will no longer be recommended. What are your thoughts on the benefits versus the risks, or is it an individual decision based on the person’s health history? DEAR READER: T o my knowledge, there is no set age at which colonoscopy is no longer recommended. Your mother’s medical history will tell the story. She should discuss her concer ns with her physician. It is also her right to discontinue the testing whenever she chooses regardless of a doctor’s advice. Dr. Peter H.

choice. As to physicians who leave, there are many reasons that anyone, including a physician, may choose to leave a community. Those reasons could involve such factors as geographical and cultural preferences, over which we have virtually no control. Unfortunately, there is no single area of concern that we can easily remedy, and thus fix the problem. Further, Roswell is hardly the only community facing this issue. For example, a recent report in the Dallas Morning News reveals that most of the primary care physicians in the neighboring state of Texas are concentrated in the larger cities — Houston, Dallas, San Antonio and Austin. We have a similar problem here. Despite Roswell’s apparently growing population, it remains a rural and medically under-served area, and increasingly, physicians across the country are taking their talents to urban areas. There is also the issue of economics. The reimbursement rates in New Mexico — the rates of payment to health care providers by such entities as Medicare and Medicaid — are lower than in many surrounding states. The physicians with pre-existing ties to New Mexico will often remain here, even if it means working for less money, but those physicians who are recruited to New Mexico from elsewhere will oftentimes move on if they are confronted with an opportunity to make more money in another location. We must also consider the expenses of
on immigration reform. There was a political battle inside Mexico, but it was short-lived and not filled with the vitriol and hate-speak of the immigration debate in our country. There was talk of “Arizona style” legislation. There was pressure to build up the borders with the military. (By the way, there are thousands of Americans living “illegally” in Mexico. They are everywhere, from San Miguel de Allende to Baja California to Cancun, and many don’t have official permission to be there. Nothing in the proposed new law would go after these people per se. But in the world of “South is North,” I do think it’s important to challenge our own image of an “illegal alien.” In Mexico, those images are Bob Smith and his wife, Suzy, blond-haired, blue-eyed and monolingual Englishspeaking.) My all-time favorite thing that the Mexican government did with this reform is that it has officially declared that these migrants are not “illegal immigrants,” and that term has been done away with. Migrants from Central and South America who cross

maintaining medical practice. Tort reform is always a hotly debated topic, but there is no denying that physicians in New Mexico pay much higher rates for expenses such as malpractice insurance, than do their counterparts in Texas. The lower premiums must be at least somewhat attractive, because the president of the Texas Medical Association has stated that since Texas enacted tort reform in 2003, 21,000 new physicians have come to Texas for that reason alone. Finally, there is a nationwide shortage of primary care physicians, thanks in part to the fact that primary care physicians make less money than do specialists. Across the country, we face a shortage of almost 40,000 primary care physicians, and that number will continue to grow nationwide. Accordingly, the pool of available primary care physicians is shrinking. Still, none of this means that the situation is hopeless. We can and should do more to recruit primary care physicians to Roswell, and then do all we can to retain them. I would be pleased to lend my meager talents to your committee or to any effort that has as its purpose the improvement of the quality of health care being delivered to the citizens of Roswell and the surrounding area. Roswell Regional is committed to it. Thank you again for your keen interest in meeting this challenge. With kindest regards, I remain, Rod M. Schumacher, CEO Roswell Regional Hospital
through Mexico might soon get a “transmigrant visa.” And when the new law goes through final approval, these once-shunned people will have rights to things such as health care and education, and have been guaranteed basic human rights, humane treatment and decency. Officially, the reform gives these migrants a transit visa that allows them 60 days to legally be in the country. There is just something special when a government of a big country says it will no longer talk about people as illegal. I know it will take a lot for this to work in real life (opinions and actions don’t change overnight), but this is a big step forward. For the past several years, whenever Mexico officially complained about the treatment of Mexican immigrants in the U.S., the U.S. would say, “Look at how you treat immigrants in your own country! You can’t complain. You don’t have the moral right!” Now Mexico does. Checkmate. Maria Hinojosa is an award-winning broadcast journalist.

BUSINESS REVIEW
Roswell Daily Record
Roswell welcomes Johns Hopkins-trained Gastroenterologist Dr. David Liang discusses an easy formula to promote prevention, awareness of colon cancer
David Liang, M.D. has joined Akbar Ali, M.D., and Sebastian Lopez, M.D. at Zia Medical Associates. Here on a temporary assignment, Dr. Liang was recruited by Eastern New Mexico Medical Center to fill a community need for an additional gastroenterologist. The hospital continues aggressive recruitment for a fulltime GI specialist, and in the meantime, Dr. Liang is seeing patients at Zia Medical Associates, and is performing colonoscopies and other surgical procedures at ENMMC. “We're fortunate that we were able to secure a physician of this caliber to help meet patients' need while we are recruiting for a gastroenterologist,” said John Ballard, ENMMC practice administrator. Dr. Liang was the Chief Fellow in Gastroenterology at Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland where he completed his training in June 2010. Dr. Liang arrived in Roswell just in time for increased demand for colonoscopies, prompted in part by national attention to the annual designation of March as Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month. “Colon cancer can be a tough cancer to battle,” said Dr. Liang. “The good news is that when found early, there's a 90% chance of cure.” Cancer of the colon is
the third most common cancer in the United States - and, caught early, it's also one of the most curable. About 90 percent of individuals whose cancer is found before it has spread survive five years after diagnosis. But, if not caught at this point, the five-year survival rate is just 10 percent. Colon cancer is cancer of the large intestine, the lower part of the digestive system. Most cases begin silently, as a polyp that causes few symptoms. Five simple steps can help protect your health. 1. Get tested All adults over age 50 should begin routine colon cancer screenings. In 2008, the American Cancer Society (ACS) issued new screening guidelines to stress prevention as the primary goal and steer providers and patients toward those tests with the highest potential to prevent cancer. The recommendations add two new tests and more specifically define the differences between tests: those that find cancer, and those that can find precancerous growths (also known as polyps). ACS recommends those tests that actually examine the interior of the colon because they can not only detect cancer, but also prevent it by finding - and removing polyps or growths that can potentially cause cancer.
These tests include a flexible signoidoscopy (every five years); a colonoscopy (every 10 years); a double contrast barium enema (every five years); or a CT colonography or virtual colonoscopy (every five years). Polyps found during these tests can be removed on the spot, simply and painlessly. Testing options that look for evidence of actual cancer, include three types of stool tests - an annual fecal occult blood test, the annual fecal immunochemical test (FIT), and a periodic stool DNA test. 2. Develop awareness Know the risk factors associated with colon problems: o Advancing age, i.e., over age 50. o A high-fat diet. o A family (i.e., sibling or parent) or personal history of colorectal cancer. o A history of polyps or growths inside the colon and rectum. o Certain conditions that elevate your risk, such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. o Diabetes. People with diabetes have a 40 percent increased risk of colon cancer. o Ethic background. African Americans have the highest number of colorectal cancer cases in the United States. 3. Know the symptoms Be vigilant about scheduled screenings, and if you

have certain symptoms, see your doctor sooner. Symptoms may include persistent stomach discomfort, a change in bowel habits (diarrhea, constipation, or a change in stool consistency), abdominal pain accompanying a bowel movement, dark stools, weakness or fatigue, unexplained weight loss, or blood in the stool. Symptoms vary, and certain foods or medications can also mimic these symptoms. It's best to err on the safe side and check with your doctor about changes. 4. Practice prevention A balanced diet, regular exercise and smart
lifestyle choices will keep your risk level in check. A diet rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains provides the nutrients and antioxidants that fight disease. Low-fat dairy products and limited consumption of red meat keep your saturated fat intake low. Getting your vitamins and minerals through a daily supplement helps, but food-based vitamins are more effective and more easily absorbed by the body. Regular exercise - at least 30 minutes most days of the week - helps build your body's defenses. Finally, quitting smoking and limiting alcohol consumption help, too. 5. Know your options Talk with your doctor about the best way to manage your risk. If you have an above-average risk for colon cancer or an initial test reveals polyps, you and your doctor can decide the course of action that works best for you. If you're over 50, with
or without colon cancer symptoms, you need to schedule a colonoscopy soon. “It's normal to be uncomfortable at the thought of a colonoscopy,” said Dr. Liang. “But staying healthy is nothing to be embarrassed about, and a colonoscopy is one of the best ways to do it. It's fast, almost painless, and the typical person only needs one every 10 years.” So if you're over 50 or have a family history of colon cancer, see your doctor. Honestly, a colonoscopy isn't a big thing. And if it's caught early enough, colon cancer doesn't have to be a big thing either. To speak with Dr. Liang about the resources available to you and learn the best way to manage your risk, contact Zia Medical Specialists at 575627-0535. ** Sources: The Mayo Clinic (www.mayoclinic.com/health/co The National lon-cancer/), Institutes of Health (www.nih.gov).

month. The repetition is important. It takes 5,000 repetitions to turn action into muscle memory. To qualify for SWAT, officers must pass a tough physical fitness test and shoot with an accuracy at or above 90 percent. Then, the potential candidate is interviewed by the entire team. The men vote on each new candidate. For Meredith, being a member of SWAT is all about teamwork. They receive no additional pay for their work. “You don’t do this for the money,” Meredith said. “It’s for the extra advanced training and working with a bunch of guys you like.” Team member Detective Ken Roberts agrees. “When I’m climbing through a dark and dirty attic or under a home, I want to know that he (Meredith) is behind me,” Roberts said. “It’s not about who gets the glory. The worst fear for members of SWAT is letting other team members down,” Meredith said. SWAT has three new members. The newest is also the youngest. Nate Clay has been a member for two weeks. The team also includes two members of Roswell Fire Department, Rich Lindberg and Donald Ragsdale, who provide emergency medical treatment on the scene. Each spoke with pride about the team. Detective Miguel Lopez of Technical Services has been with SWAT for three months. He said that the hardest thing is learning the multitude of things a member must know. SWAT has a special training site set up with separate rooms for potential scenarios. The walls are moveable to present different hazards and obstacles for the men. The training session begins with a weapons inspection to ensure that the standard ammunition has been replaced with Simunition, bullets with soap tips. Meredith admits being hit with a Simunition bullet hurts, but he views
this as a benefit. “If you’re hit, it lets you know that you are vulnerable without killing you,” Meredith said. Men are given instructions about each situation before the training program. They are given minimal information, including the number of potential weapons, possible subjects and victims. “You need to think on your feet,” Meredith said. A Daily Record reporter was one of the hostages, held close by the subject. Seven rounds were fired at close range. The “perp” was shot, but not one simubullet hit the victim. Meredith discussed the basics of SWAT work, which he confessed are ideals that may not always be attainable. The goal is that no member works alone. “We try to stay within visual sighting, but in some structures, you can’t do this,” Meredith said. “After a room is cleared, a man may be left behind to secure the area. “Each man has a sector of responsibility, a sector of fire. We want to make sure we always have two guns in the fight, and I’d like to have more. ... We don’t want a fair fight. I want seven guns against the bad guy’s one,” Meredith said. Communication is key. If stealth is required, they have nonverbal signals. New recruits are told that if they run into obstacles, such as furniture, to go over them. “Do not allow furniture to dictate your path. What we’re looking for is fluidity of movement,” Meredith said. “... The opposition will be looking for any opening.” After each session, the team’s actions are assessed and suggestions for improvement are discussed. Individuals are given specific instructions, and if errors are made, it can result in discipline, usually in the form of physical fitness exercise. The teamwork and camaraderie extends beyond their duties. Each day the team works out together. On some days they swim. On others, they do weight training or receive training from Brad Brimhall at New Mexico Military Institute. “The entire unit owes him a debt of gratitude,” Meredith said. j.palmer@roswell-record.com

querque, headed the transition team for Republican Gov. Susana Martinez after last year’s general election. Even before Wilson’s announcement, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee put out a video about her time in Washington and a news release contending she improperly pressured the then-U.S. attorney in New Mexico, David Iglesias. He was among nine federal prosecutors fired in a series of politically tinged dismissals in 2006. Wilson and Domenici came under fire after Iglesias alleged they pressured him before the November 2006 election to bring an indictment in a public corruption case. Wilson and Domenici acknowledged calling Iglesias but denied pressuring him. Wilson is the most prominent Republican set to enter the Senate race. Conservative businessmen Greg

ues to take place,” Obama said during remarks in the Oval Office Monday. Libyan warplanes launched multiple airstrikes Monday on opposition fighters regrouping at the oil port of Ras Lanouf on the Mediterranean coast a day after they were driven back by a heavy government counteroffensive aimed at stopping the rebel drive toward Tripoli, Gadhafi’s stronghold. One strike hit near a gas station in Ras Lanouf, blasting two large craters in the road and wounding at least two people in a pickup truck. The rebels oppose any Wester n ground troops deploying in Libya, but they’re pressing for a no-fly zone to relieve them of the threat from the air. The rebels can take on “the rockets and the tanks, but not Gadhafi’s air force,” said Ali Suleiman, a rebel fighter at Ras Lanouf. “We don’t want a foreign military intervention (on the ground), but we do want a no-fly zone. We are all waiting for one.” Arab Gulf countries joined the calls for a no-fly zone, with the foreign minister of the United Arab Emirates saying to a conference of his country’s neighbors that the U.N. Security Council should “shoulder its historical responsibility for protecting the Libyan people.”

Sowards of Las Cruces and Bill English of Alamogordo announced for the GOP nomination last year. On the Democratic side, U.S. Rep. Martin Heinrich, state Auditor Hector Balderas and former Lt. Gov. Diane Denish have said they’ll make a decision soon. Albuquerque political activist Andres Valdez has announced plans to run for the party’s nomination. Wilson, an Air Force Academy graduate, won election to the House in 1998, becoming the only female veteran in Congress. A member of the third class of women to graduate from the Air Force Academy in 1982, she later became a Rhodes scholar at Oxford University and served from 1989 to 1991 on President Bush’s National Security Council. Wilson came to New Mexico to marry her former Air Force Academy law professor, Albuquerque attorney Jay Hone. She was tapped in 1995 by then-Gov. Gary Johnson to head the state Children, Youth and Families Department. Still, Western military intervention does not seem imminent — and the warnings may be an attempt to intimidate Gadhafi with words before deeds. British and French officials said the nofly resolution was being drawn up as a contingency and it has not been decided whether to put it before the U.N. Security Council, where Russia holds veto power and has rejected such a move. Western officials have said a no-fly zone does not require a U.N. mandate, but they would prefer to have one. In the battles over the weekend, Gahdafi’s forces unleashed their strongest use of airpower yet in the nearly three-week-old uprising. A powerful assault by warplanes, helicopter gunships and heavy barrages of artillery, rockets and tank fire drove the opposition forces out of the town of Bin Jawwad, 375 miles (600 kilometers) east of the capital. The counteroffensive blunted what had been a steady advance by a force of 500 to 1,000 rebel fighters pushing down the coastal highway along the Mediterranean Sea west toward Tripoli. The rebels were forced back to Ras Lanouf, about 40 miles to the east. The past three days of fighting killed 30 rebels and wounded 169, said Gebril Hewadi, a doctor at Al-Jalaa Hospital in Benghazi. The rebels are now struggling to set up supply lines for weapons, ammunition and food, with many living off junk food, cookies and cans of tuna.

Oil settles above $105 a barrel, gas above $3.50 NEW YORK (AP) — Oil prices continued to set new post-recession highs Monday as forces loyal to Moammar Gadhafi pounded rebels near a key oil port in Libya. It’s unclear how long the country’s oil exports will be cut off, and traders prepared for a worst-case scenario in which world supplies would be under pressure for months. Benchmark West Texas Intermediate crude for April delivery gained $1.02 to settle at $105.44 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The price almost hit $107 per barrel earlier in electronic trading, the highest level since Sept. 26, 2008. In London, Brent crude fell 93 cents to settle at $115.04 per barrel. The rise in oil is driving U.S. gasoline prices to levels that weren’t expected for at least another month. Pump prices have jumped an average of 39 cents per gallon since the Libyan uprising began in mid-February, forcing motorists to pay an additional $146 million per day for the same amount of fuel. The national average hit $3.509 per gallon on
Monday, according to AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service. Libya, which sits on the largest oil reserves in Africa, has been engulfed in a four-week rebellion as militants try to oust Gadhafi after 41 years in power. Officials in the country say oil fields continue to operate, but daily exports of 1.5 million barrels could be cut off for some time. On Monday, Libyan warplanes launched more airstrikes on rebel positions around the Ras Lanouf oil port as forces loyal to Gadhafi tried to keep rebels from advancing on his stronghold in the capital, Tripoli. OPEC has ramped up production to make up for the loss of Libyan crude. The Financial Times reported Monday that Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, and Nigera are planning to put another 1 million barrels per day on the market. Also, the Obama administration is evaluating whether to tap U.S. strategic oil reserves to slow the rising price of oil. A White House spokesman said officials will base that decision on a variety of factors, including the flow

of oil to the U.S. The government started to stockpile oil after the 1973 Arab embargo. The Strategic Petroleum Reserve, located in massive underground salt deposits in Texas and Louisiana, currently holds 727 million barrels of oil — enough to supply the nation for 37 days. Releasing additional supplies and ramping up production could temporarily cool off overheated energy markets, but experts warned that it also would put a tighter squeeze on the world’s oil as the global economy recovers and consumption rises. “They’ll remove the cushion of extra supplies,” said Jim Ritterbusch, president of energy consultancy Ritterbusch and Associates. “Until this situation gets resolved, prices are going to continue to grind higher.” It also doesn’t make sense to tap into the U.S. reserves right now, analyst and trader Stephen Schork said. The supply problem exists mostly in Europe, where many refineries rely on Libyan crude. In contrast, U.S. refineries have access to a relatively large supply.

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — Rachel Alexandra is going to be a mom. The 2009 Horse of the Year is in foal with an expected due date of Feb. 1, 2012. Farm Stonestreet announced the pregnancy Monday, two weeks after the 2009 Preakness winner was bred to two-time Horse of the Year winner and stablemate Curlin. The two horses mated in a breeding shed at Lane’s End Farm, near Versailles, Ky., on Feb. 21. The gestation period takes almost a year, with the earliest chance to find out the sex coming at around the twomonth mark. Owner Jess Jackson was not available for comment, but he’s been anticipating getting two of racing’s biggest names together since he purchased Rachel Alexandra days after her record run in the 2009 Kentucky Oaks. He has said that any future offspring from the
two stars could produce a “super horse.” His wife, Barbara Banke, called it a “privilege” to bring the two greats together. Rachel Alexandra captured 2009 Horse of the Year honors in spectacular fashion, becoming the first filly in over 80 years to beat the boys in the Preakness then backing it up with wins in the Haskell and the Woodward. It was all part of an 8-0 campaign that ranks among the greatest ever. She struggled regaining her form in 2010, winning just two of five races. Jackson retired her last September, saying it was time to “reward her with a less stressful life.” By then she’d become a crossover star. Off the track, Jackson used her success to help raise money for various charitable causes, including cancer research by auctioning items related to Rachel. There was little doubt her See EXPECTING, Page B2
NFL, NFLPA meet for 4 hours in Washington
WASHINGTON (AP) — The NFL and the players’ union negotiated for four hours Monday before calling it a day. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, NFLPA executive director DeMaurice Smith and members of the two negotiating teams are expected to reconvene before a federal mediator on Tuesday morning. The current collective bargaining agreement was set to expire last Thursday, but two extensions have now pushed the cutoff to the end of Friday. The sides have made progress during 11 days at the offices of mediator George Cohen, but they still remain apart on key economic issues. What will happen this week is still anyone’s guess. A deal could be reached at any time. Talks could break off. The sides could agree to yet another extension. By buying extra time, the league and union made it clear neither was quite ready to make the drastic move of shutting down a league that rakes in $9 billion a year and is more popular than ever. The past two Super Bowls rank No. 1 and No. 2 among most-watched TV programs in U.S. history. The NFL has not lost games to a work stoppage since 1987. The current CBA was agreed to in 2006. Owners exercised an optout clause in 2008. Money, not surprisingly, is at the center of the standoff. One person with knowledge of the negotiations told The Associated Press last week
that the NFLPA has not agreed to any major economic concessions — and that the NFL has not agreed to the union’s long-held demand that the league completely open its books and share all financial information. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because Cohen asked everyone involved not to comment on the substance of the talks. The key issues all along have been: —How to divide revenues, including what cut team owners should get up front to help cover costs such as stadium construction and improvement. Under the old deal, owners received about $1 billion off the top. They entered these negotiations seeking to add another $1 billion to that. —A rookie wage scale, and where money saved by teams under that system would go. —Benefits for retired players. —The owners’ push to expand the regular season from 16 games to 18 while reducing the preseason by two games. For the players to agree to a longer regular season, they would want substantial reductions in offseason workouts, minicamps and training camp. Should they get that, and if Smith can coax, say, five extra roster spots per team (160 more jobs), perhaps the league and union could find common ground on that issue. See 4 HOURS, Page B2

LUBBOCK (AP) — Texas Tech fired Pat Knight on Monday, ending a disappointing tenure for a coach who failed to lead the Red Raiders to the NCAA tournament after taking over for his father in February 2008. He will coach the Red Raiders at this week’s Big 12 tournament and then step down. Knight said he was glad his dismissal came before the tournament because of all the potentially negative media chatter about a pending firing. “It’s not just negative toward us. It’s negative to the university,” Knight said. “It’s not good, even for the guy that’s following ... that’s why I just told them, when they told me, ‘You’re not going to get another year,’ let’s just get it out there now. It worked out for the best.” Knight is 50-60 in his first Division I coaching job and his third full year as head coach. He had only one winning season (19-16 in 2009-10) at Texas Tech.

first chance at becoming a broodmare would be with Curlin. The 2007 and 2008 Horse of the Year stands for $40,000 at Lane’s End following a brilliant career in which he set a North American record by winning over $10.5 million in purses. He was retired at the end of the 2008 season following a fourth-place finish in the Breeders’ Cup Classic. “Rachel Alexandra and Curlin are true champions,” Banke said last month. “Both horses embody that intangible equine ideal that separate mere horse from legend. Both Jess and I are so pleased that these powerful bloodlines will pass to future generations.”

“There are so many moving parts, so much that goes on,” New Orleans Saints union representative Jon Stinchcomb said. “When you have these CBA negotiations, what we establish now will affect how we do business for years to come. It’s more than just how to slash the pie. It’s how you go to work, what your offseason will look like, benefits for former players, how protected are we when injuries come along.”

Michigan prep hoops team plays 1st game after death
HOLLAND, Mich. (AP) — Two Michigan high schools are hoping to make a Monday night state tournament basketball game a tribute to a star player who died last week. Fennville High will be playing its first game since Wes Leonard, a star athlete, hit a winning shot then collapsed and died from a heart ailment. Fennville was scheduled to meet Lawrence High in a Class C district opener on Monday. Fennville’s decision to play came after school officials talked to Leonard’s family. The game was supposed to be played at Lawrence but will be played instead at Hope College in Holland to handle a larger crowd. “We want to do as much as we can tonight to focus on athletics, on unity — but most of all remembering Wes,” said Dirk Weeldreyer,
superintendent of the Fennville school district. “So to some degree the outcome of the game — you know, it’s a little less important. We want to see certainly a wellplayed game, a well-fought game because that’s what Wes would have wanted, too. But I think both teams are realizing that there’s more to life than this win or loss tonight.” Fennville’s last game was Thursday, when Leonard, a 16-year -old junior, made the game-winning basket in overtime on his home court against Bridgman to cap an undefeated regular season at 20-0. Teams shook hands after the game and Leonard was lifted off the floor in celebration, a wide grin on his face. Seconds later, he fell to the court, stunning a crowd estimated at more than 1,400. Leonard was rushed to a hospital where he was
Gonzaga tops Saint Mary’s LAS VEGAS (AP) — Robert Sacre scored 12 points, including a dunk and six late free throws and Gonzaga beat Saint Mary’s 75-63 Monday night to win the West Coast Conference tournament for the second time in three years. Gonzaga (24-9) received an automatic bid into the NCAA tournament for its 13th straight appearance. Saint Mary’s (24-8) will have to hope for an at-large berth. Steven Gray led Gonzaga with 15 points and Dower had 10. Sacre had four blocks and eight rebounds. Mickey McConnell led Saint Mary’s with 24 points and Matthew Dellavedova added 21. The game was tied at 53 when Gonzaga reserve Sam Dower started an 8-0 run with a pick-and-roll layup. Freshman guard David Stockton, with Hall of Fame father John Stockton in the stands, hit a 3-pointer to put Gonzaga ahead 58-53.

Saint Mary’s made it 61-58 on a 3pointer by Clint Steindl, but Elias Harris countered with a tip-in, and Sacre made two more free throws and a power ful dunk off a pass from Stockton to put it out of reach. Rob Jones and Mitchell Young both fouled out with more than five minutes remaining. The teams split the regular -season series. Saint Mary’s won 73-71 on Jan. 27 and Gonzaga taking the rematch 89-85 in overtime on Feb. 24. This one was just as close despite the final margin. The teams met in the WCC title game four times previously. Gonzaga won in 2004, 2005 and 2009, and the Gaels took last year’s title. Gonzaga won the women’s title earlier Monday with a 72-46 victory over Saint Mary’s.

Report: Tressel was alerted to gear sale in April
Yahoo! Sports is reporting Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel was informed that some of his players had sold memorabilia to the owner of a tattoo parlor more than eight months before the school said it was made aware of improper transactions. The website, citing an unidentified source, reports Tressel received information as early as April 2010 that players were selling items to Edward Rife, who owns Fine Line Ink Tattoos in Columbus. Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith has said the local U.S. Attorney’s office on Dec. 7 alerted the school that some of its players were selling items such as jerseys and championship rings to Rife. Soon after, the school opened an investigation and informed the NCAA of the possible rules violations. On Dec. 23, quarterback Terrelle Pryor was among five players suspended by the NCAA for the first five games of the 2011 season. All the players were allowed to play in Ohio State’s 31-26 victory against Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl. If it is proven that Tressel knew about the possible NCAA violations and did not inform Smith or the compliance office, the coach and the program could face more sanctions. Tailback Dan “Boom” Herron, wide receiver DeVier Posey and left tackle Mike Adams, along with Sugar Bowl star Solomon Thomas, a backup defensive end who had the game-clinching interception were also suspended. Each player was also made to repay to charity the value of what he gained by swapping their memorabilia for cash and tattoos. Ohio State is appealing to the NCAA to get the suspensions reduced, although the NCAA’s decision to allow the players to participate in the Sugar Bowl drew a wide range of criticism and questions.

Sabbatini wins by a shot
PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Rory Sabbatini’s shot barely beat the buzzer. Holding a two-stroke lead at the Honda Classic, the South African stepped to the tee at the treacherous par-three 17th hole and lofted his drive to the middle of the green, avoiding the lake that had been collecting balls all week. Moments later a horn sounded, signaling a suspension of play because of lightning. As rain began falling harder, Sabbatini walked briskly to his ball and happily marked it before finding refuge in a van. “I was pretty content to have it on the green at that time,” he said. The tee shot left Sabbatini significantly closer to victory, and after a 28-minute delay he completed his march to the title, shooting an even-par 70 Sunday for a one-stroke win. Y.E. Yang made it close, cutting a fiveshot deficit to one in the span of seven holes. But Sabbatini birdied No. 16, then came through with a clutch par on 17. While spectators wondered if Sabbatini would fold, Yang said he was actually the shakier player down the stretch. “Usually if you’re in front, if you’re running away from somebody, you tend to be a bit nervous,” Yang said through an interpreter. “But in Rory’s case, apart from No. 14, he seemed really calm. I commend him for being I guess so emotionally stable. I was not.” Sabbatini sealed the title with a 2-foot par putt on No. 18 for a 72-hole total of 9-under 271. The resident of Fort Worth, Texas, earned his sixth PGA Tour victory and his first since the 2009 Byron Nelson Championship. Yang, Honda’s 2009 winner, birdied the final hole for a closing 66 to finish 8 under. Jerry Kelly, who played with Sabbatini and Yang in the last threesome, shot a 67 and took third at 7 under.

pronounced dead. An autopsy by the Ottawa County medical examiner showed Leonard died of cardiac arrest due to an enlarged heart. “We went from the highest of highs to the lowest of lows within the space of just a few minutes at the end of that game last Thursday night,” Weeldreyer said. A visitation on Sunday drew such a crowd that a line of people who wanted to pay their respects wrapped around Fennville United Methodist Church. Leonard’s funeral is Tuesday.

Howard Amason on April 20, 1910, in Thorndale, Texas. She spent her early years in Austin, Texas, but later moved to Roswell with her family, where she attended Roswell Senior High School. At age 16, Marjorie retur ned to Austin to attend the University of Texas, graduating with a degree in psychology. It was at the University of Texas where she met first husband, J. R. Potsy Allen. They wed in 1930, and raised three children. They remained happily married until his death in 1974. In 1982, Marge married Col. Robert H. Schulz of Roswell. Whether at home in Roswell or on one of their many worldwide adventures, Marge and Bob were constant companions, and she embraced his children as her own. Married 28 years, Bob was by her side until her death. With a lifelong devotion to healthy eating and liv-
ing, Marge stayed active late into her 90s and kept up her daily walking regimen until late in her life. Known among family members and others for speaking her mind, Marge often left no doubts as to where she stood on any particular issue.

Wis. gov. rebuffs meeting request
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Democrats who fled the state nearly three weeks ago asked Monday for a meeting with Gov. Scott Walker to talk about changes to his plan to eliminate most public workers’ union rights, a request the gover nor dismissed as “ridiculous.” Walker said he and his administration have been in communication with at least a couple of the AWOL Senate Democrats about a deal that could bring them back, but the lawmaker who asked for the meeting, Senate Minority Leader Mark Miller, “is fir mly standing in the way.” That accusation led to a flurry of angry responses from Democrats who said Walker was misrepresenting the talks. The sometimes-angry exchange suggested that any resolution to the stalemate was farther away than ever. “Right now, I’m so damn mad at his misrepresentation of the truth and the public should be as well,” said Sen. Bob Jauch, one of two Democrats who had talked last week with the Senate Republican leader about possible compromises. “T rust is completely broken down now. I don’t believe anything he says.” The standoff has drawn national attention and placed Wisconsin at the center of a vigorous debate over the future of union rights. Walker’s proposal to balance the state budget remains in limbo because, without the 14 Democrats, the state Senate does not have enough members present for a quorum. The senators said pressure is mounting on Walker and the GOP to compromise after weeks of protests that have drawn tens of thousands of people to the Capitol. In addition, polls show substantial opposition to the governor and his plan, and recall efforts have been launched against Republican senators. Recall efforts have also begun against

the Democrats. “The problem for the Democrats is to figure out how to come back and not be seen as conceding,” said Charles Franklin, a University of Wisconsin-Madison political science professor and founder of pollster.com. “Both sides have been so strongly supported by their constituencies that it makes it awfully hard to compromise unless they can find a way to both claim victory,” Franklin said. “And that’s certainly difficult.” Walker tried to place blame for the stalemate on Miller, the Democratic leader in the Senate, saying he blocked progress on talks with Jauch and Sen. Tim Cullen. “It leads you to question who’s in charge,” Walker said at a news conference also attended by the Republican leaders of the Senate and Assembly. Miller issued a statement saying if Walker didn’t want to talk with him, the governor could meet with any of the 14 Senate Democrats. And Democratic Sen. Jon Erpenbach said it was
Walker who was standing in the way. “We continually reach out with suggestions, ideas, offers,“ Erpenbach said. ”We’re not the ones getting in the way.” Before Walker refused the meeting request, Democrats were talking more openly about the need to retur n sooner rather than later. And even if they lose in a Senate vote, the lawmakers said, they had accomplished their broader goal of striking a nationwide political blow against the GOP’s plans to cut back union rights. “I don’t think anyone expects us to stay here forever,” Jauch said in a telephone interview from Illinois. Walker’s proposal would remove most collective bargaining rights for public employees, except over wage increases no greater than inflation. Police and fire departments would be the only exemptions. The legislation would also require state workers to start paying more for their pension and health care benefits starting in April,
which amounts to an 8 percent pay cut on average. The unions have agreed to the pay concessions as long as they can retain their bargaining rights. Over the past three weekends, rallies at the Capitol in opposition to the bill have grown as large as 80,000 people. “We want to come back to the state of Wisconsin and stand with these hundreds of thousands of citizens who are now engaged,“ Jauch said. “Every day I feel like I’m closer to getting back because there has to be a transition from us to the rest of us. This isn’t our fight. This is the citizens’ fight.” Since last week, Miller has been talking about the importance of returning to oppose Walker’s larger budget bill, which cuts about $1 billion from public schools and local gover nments to deal with a projected $3.6 billion shortfall. “I don’t think a lot of us have the stomach to stay away and watch our state plummet off a cliff,” Democratic Sen. Chris Larson said.

DEAR ABBY: My 9-year-old son’s friend “Isaac” was over for a visit. He was captivated by our Labrador retriever, “Layla,” who is very loving. Isaac doesn’t have a dog, so he wanted to play with Layla. At one point, I overheard him say to my son, “Look, I’m riding your dog!” I immediately intervened, but I was too late. A day or so later, Layla was unable to descend our stairway and was clearly in pain. She has been on pain medication for three weeks and is growing progressively worse. The next step is to get X-rays and/or an MRI to see if she has a spinal injury, and then determine her treatment. It’s possible the damage is irreversible. My wife and I are extremely upset about this, but we’re afraid to tell our son or Isaac and his parents for fear it will place undue guilt on a 9-yearold boy. On the flip side, I wouldn’t want him to do this to anyone else’s beloved pet. How do you recommend we proceed? HEARTBROKEN IN NEW YORK DEAR HEARTBROKEN: Children are not mind-readers. If you don’t tell them when they make a mistake, they won’t realize they have made one. Contact Isaac’s parents and explain what happened. If your dog needs treatment, they should be responsible for whatever damage their son did.

DEAR ABBY: The other day I was with a friend who is a bit overweight. We were trying on clothes in one of the stores. She grabbed a shirt she was sure she could fit into, but when she tried it on, it ripped. She had to pay for it. On the ride home my friend asked me, “Am I fat?” I was at a loss, so I told her no. What should I have done? I feel horrible for lying, but I didn’t know what else to do. LOST FOR WORDS
DEAR LOST FOR WORDS: You could have replied, “What size was the shirt?” And when she answered, you should have said, “I guess you’re a size or two larger.” It would have been more tactful than saying she was fat, and gotten the point across.

kerchief. On the way home, this sparked a conversation about the obligation of a person who receives a handkerchief. Should it be returned after the event, or should it first be laundered? Or is it considered a gift, not to be returned at all? Later that evening at a movie, I noticed a woman hand someone her handkerchief saying, “It’s monogrammed. It was my mother’s.” No mention was made of a request that it be returned. I’m sure most people wouldn’t mind letting go of a standard handkerchief, but one with sentimental value would be different, wouldn’t it? What do you suggest? REAL MEN CARRY HANDKERCHIEFS
DEAR REAL MAN:
You were chivalrous to offer your handkerchief to the grieving daughter. Had it merely been used to dab away a tear, it could have been returned to you at the end of the service. If, however, there was makeup on it — or the dab was followed by a swipe of her nose — the woman should have held onto it, laundered it and returned it to you in the presumably pristine condition it was in when you gave it to her.
As to the monogrammed (heirloom) hanky you saw lent in the theater, when the woman explained its significance to her friend, that was the tip-off that she expected it to be returned.

Dear Heloise: My wedding ring seemed to snag my sheets last week, and I decided to take it to a jeweler to make sure the prongs were not loose. I found out that of six prongs, two of them were missing, and one was turned to the side. I easily could have lost my diamond. Please remind your readers to check their rings occasionally to make sure they are not damaged. A Reader in Texas Dear Heloise: To help organize your tax receipts for the year, use a 12month flip calendar. Turn the calendar upside down and put January’s receipts behind the January page, February’s receipts behind the February page, etc. This also helps if you need to find a receipt from the year and you know the approximate month of the transaction.

Duchess of York got loan from wealthy US
LONDON (AP) — Prince Andrew and his ex-wife Sarah are in the spotlight for their ties to a wealthy U.S. sex offender — he for being pictur ed with an underage masseuse at the man’s home and she for accepting money from the American to help pay off her massive debts. Andrew’s ex-wife, Sarah, Duchess of York, confir med in an interview Monday in the Evening Standard newspaper that she did receive financial help from convicted U.S. sex of fender Jef fr ey Epstein. But she claimed to have known nothing about his background and vowed to repay the 15,000 pounds ($24,500) he advanced to settle a debt to her for mer personal assistant, Johnny O’Sullivan. “I am just so contrite I cannot say,” the duchess was quoted as saying. “Whenever I can I will repay the money and will have nothing ever to do with Jeffrey Epstein ever again.” The payment was handled thr ough Andr ew’s office, the duchess said, and she wasn’t directly involved. Ther e was no immediate comment from Andrew’s office.

Meanwhile, Prime Minister David Cameron gave his backing to Andr ew, who has also been under fire for hosting the son of Tunisia’s dictator shortly before a popular uprising overthrew the leader and his relationship with Seif al-Islam Gadhafi, one of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi’s sons. Some politicians had urged that the prince be sacked from his position as the U.K. trade envoy, although Business Secretary Vince Cable noted that the government had no power to fir e him — he’s a volunteer, not an employee. Over the weekend, British newspapers carried photographs of Andr ew with his ar m ar ound a young woman who now claims to be one of Epstein’s underage victims. There has been no suggestion, however, that Andrew was involved in inappr opriate r elationships with underage women. Asked whether Cameron had full confidence in the prince, spokesman Steve Field said “yes.” “The prime minister thinks he is doing an important job and is making a major contribution

opposition Labour Party lawmaker, said Monday that Parliament could not hold Andrew to account because he is a royal. “We can’t ask questions about the truth of the allegations that were in the newspapers and elsewhere. I think his position is untenable,” Gapes said in a BBC interview. Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 to two prostitution offenses in Florida, and was sentenced to 18 months in prison and a further year under house arrest. Prosecutors said Epstein paid several girls younger than 18 for naked massages that sometimes became sexual encounters. Much of the controversy in Andr ew’s life has involved his marriage to Sarah in 1986 and their divor ce 10 years later. They have two daughters. A key moment in the break up was the publication of photographs of a topless Sarah being kissed by a boyfriend. Since then, the duchess has made and lost large sums of money, and she got into more trouble last year after an undercover newspaper reporter filmed her apparently offering to sell access to her ex-hus-
band in r etur n for 500,000 pounds ($724,000). In Monday’s interview, she said with Andr ew’s help she had settled all of her debts, which had been estimated at around 5 million pounds ($8.1 million). “I have made another huge error in my life in order to get debt free but the duke and I are a united front on all that has happened over the last few days,” the Evening Standard quoted her as saying. “He, my girls and I are a unit who will always stick together even though we live separate lives.” The duchess said she had made “a terrible, terrible error of judgment” in accepting help fr om Epstein, though she said she had no direct contact with him. “Once again, my errors have compounded and rebounded and also inadvertently impacted on the man I admire most in the world — the duke (Andrew),” she said. “He has supported me and come to my rescue again and again and ther e is absolutely nothing that I would not do for him.”
DENVER (AP) — Goldie Hawn, Tom Cruise and media mogul Charlie Ergen are among the people benefiting from a legal property tax break because their Colorado homes and estates are categorized as agricultural land. People can qualify for the agricultural tax rate simply by cutting hay or allowing livestock to graze on their land, even if they don’t have very much to do with food production, The Denver Post reported Monday. Cruise allows sheep to graze for brief periods each year on the land he owns near Telluride. The newspaper says the actor pays about $400 in taxes on the 248 acres he bought for nearly $18 million. He pays $11,380 in taxes on another property where his vacation home is located.

and he is supportive of him in that r ole,” Field said. “We are not reviewing that role in any way.” The comments fr om Cameron’s office appeared at odds with an earlier statement from Cable, who told the British Broadcasting Corp. that “obviously there are conversations that will take place with him (Andrew) about what he is to do in future.” Andr ew draws no pay for his trade promotion work, but his expenses are paid by the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills. Expenses in 2007, the latest year available, were 128,000 pounds. The government rounded up a string of endorsements for the prince from British business leaders, including Royal Dutch Shell’s managing director, Malcolm Brinded; Peter Levene, chair man of Lloyd’s of London; and Sir John Rose, chief executive of Rolls Royce Group. “As first a diplomat and then as a banker, I have seen at first hand the tangible benefits which have flowed from the work of the duke of York,” said Sir Thomas Harris, vice chairman of Standar d Chartered Capital Markets.
