Memorial Day 2011

The message of the Memorial Day Ceremony held at 11 a.m., Sunday, in South Park Cemetery, was one of dedication and honor for our fallen soldiers.

The Roswell Veterans Honor Guard presented and held the colors.

City Councilor Jason Perry read a proclamation from Mayor Del Jur ney, declaring May 30, Memorial Day and asked the public to use it as a day of prayer.

Representatives of four different organizations decorated a symbolic grave.

Phyllis Lester, American Legion; Shirley Power, Disabled American Veterans; Dorothy Canon, Military Order of the Purple Heart; and Patsy Silva, Veterans of

Foreign Wars, each presented a wreath to commemorate fallen soldiers.

Will Cabot read a letter from Representative Steve Pearce that read “Today people will celebrate a uniquely American holiday.” The letter urged people to remember that “the price was not only paid by the soldier, but also paid by their families.”

George Luevano, commander of American Legion Post No. 28, introduced the speaker, Michael Trujillo, who was an Iraqi War vet.

T rujillo served during Operation Iraqi Freedom and received top-gun honors.

Luevano said Trujillo’s family had carried on the patriotic tradition with a daughter and a son inducted into the National Guard.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Americans from the nation’s capital to Alaska marked Memorial Day with parades, barbecues and somber reflection in a holiday infused with fresh meaning by the approaching 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

The National Memorial Day Parade in Washington honored veterans and America’s war dead but also featured special tributes to Sept. 11 first

responders, victims and their families. Also fresh in the minds of parade participants and watchers was the killing less than a month ago of Osama bin Laden, who masterminded the attacks.

Elsewhere, military jets thundered through the sky above New York after a wreath-laying ceremony aboard an aircraft carrier that’s been turned into a museum, while hundreds of volunteers put small flags on the 25,000 graves

GOOSE CREW TRIUMPHS AGAIN AT HISI

In his address, Trujillo spoke of American freedoms. “Those freedoms do not come cheap,” he said.

He wanted citizens to “dedicate their loyalty to their country.”

Trujillo said he hoped as people celebrated at barbecues, they would take a moment to remember fallen soldiers. “Let us bear witness. Without witnesses, they would just disappear.

Let us remember with our actions and our words.”

He read the oath of military service, calling to mind the solemn service soldiers perform for their country.

Trujillo cautioned everyone present that the United States remains a country at war. “I have seen firsthand the results of war—children

U.S. troops fighting in Afghanistan also took time out to remember fallen comrades.

Along the parade route in Washington, children sat on parents’ shoulders and throngs cheered the passing high school marching bands and floats of war veterans. Special guests included Medal of Honor recipients, astronaut and Korean War veteran Buzz Aldrin and

actor Gary Sinise, a veterans advocate who played Lt. Dan in the Oscar-winning film “Forrest Gump.”

Hamilton Peterson, who lost his father and stepmother when the hijacked United Airlines 93 crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pa., said the looming anniversary of the terror attacks should serve as a reminder to Americans to be vigilant.

WASHINGTON (AP) — It’s a dramatic tale.

Elite Navy SEALs storm a walled compound in Pakistan and take out the world’s most wanted terrorist.

Footnote: They were all men.

While America’s last 10 years of war have propelled women into new and far more risky roles across the military, there are still some doors that are closed.

Chief among those are the special operations forces.

But perhaps that door is inching open.

“As a philosophical thing, there shouldn’t be anything that’s closed of f as a career,” said Navy Secretary Ray Mabus. And while he is quick to note there is a ban on moving women into combat and infantry jobs, Mabus said more and more women are working with special operations forces in support roles. And he did not rule out the idea that a qualified woman could eventually become an elite commando.

Still, Mabus cautioned that it would take time.

“We’re going to have to take some careful, well-thoughtout steps in that direction,” he said.

Obama chooses experienced Gen. Dempsey to be next Joint Chiefs head WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama moved Monday to seal an overhaul of his national security team, selecting Army Gen. Martin Dempsey as the next Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman amid protracted battle in Afghanistan, U.S. involvement in the NATO-led effort against Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi and a winding down of the war in Iraq.

Obama announced a new lineup of his top military leadership group in the Rose Garden of the White House just before venturing across the Potomac to pay tribute to the nation’s war dead at Arlington National Cemetery. The Memorial Day announcements had been expected, although there was no immediate indication what the military leadership moves might

imply for possible changes in military policy.

Already, the president had turned, in late April, to CIA Director Leon Panetta to succeed Robert Gates and secretary of defense and chose to move Army Gen. David Petraeus from his command of the Afghanistan war effort to the United States to replace Panetta at the CIA. Marine Gen. James Cartwright had long been rumored to be Obama’s favorite, and the president singled him out for praise at the announcement. But he tur ned instead to Dempsey, an accomplished veteran of the Iraq war, to succeed Adm. Mike Mullen as his top military adviser, calling the Ar my of ficer “one of our nation’s most respected and combat-tested generals.”

The president also announced he has chosen Navy Adm. James Winnefeld to succeed Cartwright as vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs and Army Gen. Ray Odierno as his candidate to replace Dempsey as Army chief of staff.

The nominees have to be approved by the Senate, and Obama voiced hope that could happen in a timely fashion.

At the White House, Obama called America’s servicemen and women “the best our nation has to of fer, and they deserve nothing but the best in return, and that includes leaders.”

GOP presidential contenders drift to the right

WASHINGTON (AP) — In the first presidential election since the tea party’s emergence, Republican candidates are drifting rightward on a range of issues, even though more centrist stands might play well in the 2012 general election.

On energy, taxes, health care and other topics, the top candidates hold positions that are more conservative than those they espoused a few years ago.

The shifts reflect the evolving views of conservative voters, who will play a major role in choosing the Republican nominee. In that sense, the candidates’ repositioning seems savvy or even essential.

But the eventual nominee will face President Barack Obama in the 2012 general election, when independent voters appear likely to be decisive players once again.

Those independents may be far less enamored of hardright positions than are the GOP activists who will wield power in the Iowa caucuses, the New Hampshire primary and other nominating contests.

“The most visible shift in the political landscape” in recent years “is the emergence of a single bloc of across-the-board conservatives,” says the Pew Research Center, which conducts extensive voter sur-

veys. Many of them “take extremely conservative positions on nearly all issues,” Pew reports. They largely “agree with the tea party,” and “very strongly disapprove of Barack Obama’s job performance.”

Climate policy is a dramatic example of how GOP presidential hopefuls have shifted to the right in recent years. Former Govs. Mitt Romney of Massachusetts,

Tim Pawlenty of Minnesota and Jon Huntsman of Utah, along with other likely candidates, have backed away from earlier embraces of regional “cap-and-trade” programs to reduce greenhouse gas pollution.

Such stands were unremarkable in GOP circles just a few years ago. Sen. John McCain, the 2008 presidential nominee, supported a cap and trade plan to place

prices and limits on the emission of heat-trapping gasses.

Now the position is anathema to millions of Republicans, and therefore to the party’s candidates. Pawlenty is the most effusive in his backtracking. “I was wrong, it was a mistake, and I’m sorry,” he says repeatedly.

The likely presidential candidates have shifted rightward on other issues as

well.

Romney, who leads in most polls, has rejected his earlier stands supporting abortion rights, gun control and gay rights. He says his 2006 law requiring Massachusetts residents to obtain health insurance was right for his state at the time, but he has condemned the Obama-backed mandate that would cover all Americans.

Pawlenty campaigns as a tight-fisted conservative who would refuse to raise the nation’s debt ceiling, even though many Republican leaders say economic chaos would ensue. Yet in 2006, Pawlenty told a newspaper, “the era of small government is over” and “government has to be more proactive, more aggressive.”

Pawlenty says he was partly quoting another person. But in the same 2006 interview he said, “there are certain circumstances where you’ve got to have gover nment put up the guardrails or bust up entrenched interests before they become too powerful.”

Pawlenty has de-emphasized such talk in his presidential quest.

The Republican Party’s rightward drift is causing headaches for the presidential hopefuls on the issue of Medicare, a potential minefield in the general election. House Republicans passed a bill that eventually would convert Medicare to a less costly, less generous program. It would help older Americans buy health insurance, but it no longer would provide benefits based mainly on a patient’s needs rather than costs.

Towns in Pa., Ohio reflect Libyan rebels distribute on tornado anniversary rules on POW treatment WHEATLAND, Pa. (AP) — As they dig out, tornado victims in the South and Midwest might find it hard to see past the wreckage of their communities to a future in which homes and businesses are rebuilt, trees are once again standing tall and proud, and life is back to normal.

Maxine “Sis” Cluse knows how they feel. She lost everything she owned exactly 26 years ago, when the deadliest U.S. tornado outbreak between 1974 and this catastrophic season nearly flattened her hometown of Wheatland.

Her simple advice to tornado victims: “You can’t give up.”

Today, a visitor would be hard-pressed to detect any physical sign of the twister that wrecked Wheatland on May 31, 1985. The same goes for Niles, a town just over the state line in Ohio that was changed forever by the same tornado.

If there’s a lesson to be learned in Niles, Wheatland and other towns devastated by long-ago disaster, it’s

that communities are resilient. And that rebuilding, however slow, fitful, frustrating and expensive, will probably take place, though what emerges will not necessarily be a carbon copy of what was there before.

The calamity that devastated Niles and Wheatland and has become an important part of both cities’ lore.

More than a generation removed from a tornado outbreak in three states and Canada that killed about 90 people, storm survivors still talk about what it was like — and some still get nervous when the forecast calls for severe weather.

The monster funnel, classified as an F5 on the Fujita tornado intensity scale, wrecked three miles of Niles before slamming into Wheatland as the strongest twister in Pennsylvania’s recorded history.

Though they fell victim to the same tornado, the towns took different paths to recovery.

In Wheatland, the super-

storm killed eight residents, leveled most of the town’s industrial base and left 400 people homeless in the rough-and-tumble Flats section near the Shenango River.

Wheatland rebuilt, but it wasn’t the same. Modern zoning precluded the kind of industrial-residential mix that had emerged gradually over many decades in the Flats, and the town council voted to turn the entire neighborhood into a 60acre industrial park. A promotional brochure from the era boasted: “Wheatland: The Town a Tornado Could not Beat!”

The new industrial park welcomed several specialty steel companies, a trucking firm, a storage business, a machine shop and a manufacturer of cylinder caps.

Yet most of the displaced residents never came back to Wheatland, and couldn’t even if they wanted to because of a lack of housing and room to build. By 1990, the town’s population had plummeted by hundreds of residents to 760.

BENGHAZI, Libya (AP) — The rebel administration that controls much of eastern Libya is distributing guidelines on how its fighters should treat prisoners of war, following a string of allegations that rebels have engaged in unlawful arrests, mistreated captives and killed sub-Saharan Africans wrongly accused of being mercenaries.

The rebels are holding about 300 prisoners, including 10 foreigners, according to the top legal affairs official in the newly created National Transitional Council, Salwa Fawzi al-Deghali.

The rebels say they want to make sure that these and future captives are treated in accordance with the Geneva Conventions governing the humanitarian treatment of prisoners and other victims of war.

The low prisoner count raises questions about what has happened to the scores of alleged mercenaries from sub-Saharan Africa that the rebels earlier reported capturing. The rebels have accused Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi of bringing in thousands of mercenaries, and their fate remains an open question.

Questions also are being asked about rebel detention and interrogation of people living in the areas they control who are suspected of supporting Gadhafi.

Al-Deghali said pamphlets containing rules on POW treatment were being handed out to rebel fighters on the front lines because most are civilians and aren’t

familiar with the Geneva Conventions.

“They need guidelines and advice about the rules and procedures they should respect,” she said.

“The NTC firmly believes that these prisoners’ rights are important, not just as a matter of principle, but that they will help all Libyans to build peace between themselves once the war is over.”

women will eventually be allowed to serve in special operations jobs. At some point, he said, “there will be a careful step in that direction.”

One of those steps is the Navy’s recent decision to allow women to serve on submarines. Of the 18 women selected for the program, eight will report to their submarines in November to serve as supply corps officers. Others will report to subs next summer.

The first eight — all are newly commissioned ensigns — will be divided among four ballistic missile submarines, the USS Wyoming, USS Georgia,

Mary Ann Murphy of Roswell’s Freedom Riders

said, “It’s an opportunity to pay homage to those who have paid the supreme sacrifice. Just being here with Tony Stiggins a few weeks ago makes it even more important.”

Husband Michael Murphy concurred.

later. He said that even though the anniversary was dredging up painful memories, it’s still critical that the public never lose memory of the attacks — especially to make sure they don’t happen again.

A commercial jet crashed into the Pentagon on Sept. 11, killing 184 people at the sprawling Defense Department headquarters.

“Reliving the event is not something that I look forward to, but I don’t think it should be something that’s not brought up to the public,” said McMichael, who attended the parade in Washington. “I don’t think people should forget about

what occurred.”

The parade featured a Shanksville fire engine and a red, white and blue float bearing the images of the victims on miniature twin towers.

Seventeen-year-old spectator Zach Garrett recalled watching coverage of the attacks as a third-grader.

“Watching it on the TV, it was disturbing at that age,” said the Alpharetta, Ga., resident who was visiting Washington with his family. “And here, 10 years later, this big parade — everybody’s participating and everybody’s on the sidelines cheering everybody on. There’s a lot of patriotism here.”

President Barack Obama

participated in a wreathlaying ceremony at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Cemetery near Washington.

“Our nation owes a debt to its fallen heroes that we cannot ever fully repay,” Obama said in a speech.

“But we can honor their sacrifice, and we must.”

In New York, Lynn Berat dressed her young daughters in matching red, white and blue sundresses for a the ceremony at the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum on the west side of Manhattan.

USS Maine and the USS Ohio. And there will be a senior female officer — likely a lieutenant — on each of the subs to serve as a mentor and work with the ensigns to help with the transition.

“We are making a concerted ef fort to not only look at retaining women, but at bringing more women into the Navy,” said Lt. Cmdr. Jean Marie Sullivan, chief of the naval personnel’s office of women’s policy.

With the addition of those women to the subs, the only Navy jobs still closed to female officers are with the SEALs. By announcing the subs and putting a senior female officer on board with the two ensigns, the Navy says it is working to ensure a

smooth transition that will gradually put women on attack subs, and eventually on nuclear submarines.

And, as more female officers merge into the ranks, they will pave the way for the eventual inclusion of enlisted women.

Currently, however, the cramped quarters on subs don’t provide adequate berthing for enlisted women, and it would be costly to make the necessary modifications.

Overall, the Air Force has the highest percentage of women in its ranks, with a bit more than 19 percent.

The Navy is close behind, with nearly 17 percent women, followed by the Army with 13 percent and the Marines with less than 7 percent.

On Friday, women made

up almost 21 percent of the 2011 graduation class of sailors at the U.S. Naval Academy at Annapolis, Md., and more than 17 percent of the Marines.

Across the services, just a handful of jobs are closed to women, and those are mainly combat, infantry, artillery, pararescue, tank and special operations forces.

The growth in the number of women in the military, and their increasing roles in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, may be tearing down slowly the remaining walls that bar them from serving in front line combat.

Earlier this year, a military advisory panel recommended that the final areas of discrimination be dismantled, bucking concerns

Americans came at a dear cost,” he said. “Our nation owes a debt to its fallen heroes that we cannot ever fully repay. But we can honor their sacrifice, and we must.” After his remarks, Obama and his wife, Michelle, visited a section of the cemetery that is the final resting place for many veterans of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Preceding Obama at the amphitheater, Gates said the country “must never forget” its men and women

in the military.

“As I come to the end of my time in this post,” Gates said, “ ... I will keep these brave patriots and their families in my heart and in my prayers.”

Dempsey, who began a four -year term as Army chief of staff on April 11, will have to be confirmed by the Senate, as will Winnefeld and Odierno.

Gates said that Dempsey, Winnefeld and Odierno are excellent choices.

“They possess the right

mix of intellectual heft, moral courage and strategic vision to provide sound and candid advice to the president and his national security team,” Gates said.

Hackers post phony Tupac story on PBS website

WASHINGTON (AP) — PBS officials say hackers have cracked the network’s website, posting a phony story claiming dead rapper Tupac Shakur was alive in New Zealand, and a group that claimed responsibility for the hacking complained about a recent “Frontline” investigative news program on WikiLeaks.

PBS confirmed Monday that the website had been hacked. The phony story had been taken down as of Monday morning. It had been posted on the site of the “PBS NewsHour” program, which is produced by WETA-TV in Arlington, Va.

Anne Bentley, PBS’ vice president of corporate communications, said in an email that erroneous information posted on the website has been corrected. The hackers also posted login information for two internal PBS sites: one that media use to access the PBS press room and an internal communications website for stations, she said.

She said all affected parties were being notified.

David Fanning, executive producer of “Frontline,” said he was learning of the hacking early Monday, nearly a week after the program aired its “WikiSecrets” documentary.

Phillips said two people suffered smoke inhalation and a firefighter had an eye injury, though all three were treated and released.

The home where Janet and Wick Culp had lived for the last 30 years was among those lost in the northwest fire.

“We’re still pretty numb about it,” Wick Culp told

said.

Murphy pointed to the graves decorated with American flags.

“I come here visit old friends, so they know they are not forgotten,” he said.

Vietnam veteran Jack Fox spoke of his comrades who fell in that conflict.

“It is a time of remembrance,” he said.

Five Army Rangers stationed at Joint Base LewisMcChord in Washington state climbed Mount McKinley in Alaska, reaching the summit Friday night in honor of 11 Rangers from their regiment who have died in the line of duty. They planted a flag at the summit bearing the names of the fallen.

U.S. troops fighting in Afghanistan paused for Memorial Day services, with some praying and holding flag-raising ceremonies to recognize the more than 1,400 who have been killed in combat there since the war began a decade ago.

Obama plans to draw that women lack the strength and stamina to fulfill those grueling jobs, or that the American public will balk at seeing large numbers of women coming home in body bags.

Already more than 255,000 women have served in Iraq and Afghanistan and nearly 150 have been killed in those wars.

And while women may not be SEALs, or members of the Army’s prestigious Delta Force, they are increasingly serving with special operations teams in supporting jobs such as intelligence analysts, legal specialists, builders and administrative assistants.

So, while the SEALs who stormed Osama bin Laden’s compound early this month were all men, women have great benefit of their decades of military experience and their command in combat operations.” He called Odierno a “combatproven officer who made a real difference in Iraq.”

Since 2007, 10 to 15 women have deployed with each NSW squadron, and more than 400 female sailors serve with the Navy’s special operations forces in supporting jobs.

That program temporarily assigns women to units that are close to the warfront, but it precludes them from doing combat missions. So far, said Sullivan, it has been very successful.

“One of the things we are seeing is that as women move up and get more and more responsibilities, our retention rates for junior officers and junior enlisted are going up as well,” Mabus said. on the security side,” he replied. “We will sustain losses as we have in the last few days. ... That said, I am confident that by the end of the year, we’ll be in a much, much better position.”

He said he hopes the public understands “the depth of sacrifice” made by servicemen and women.

Energy planning offers no neat solutions

Talking about infrastructure planning for the future of New Mexico energy is a serious exercise in testing your ability to tolerate reality.

Ther e is no pie in the sky.

This is about how you and I will be able to turn the lights on, 20 years from now.

PNM is currently undergoing such an exercise, with a full complement of public participation. The participants are not a hand-picked group. Everybody who showed up got a place at the table.

Wherever you are in New Mexico, this af fects you. You are part of the region and face similar cost issues and environmental trade-offs. You also breathe the same air.

The trade-offs look like this: First you have to estimate future demand based on avail-

MERILEE DANNEMANN TRIPLE SPACED

able data for projected population growth and likely energy demands per capita. You have to assume existing technology. You can’t engage in wishful thinking about a perpetual-motion machine that runs on garbage and eats carbon dioxide.

If reliable power is the top priority, you need an energy source that is available at all times.

Right now, the primary sources are coal and natural gas. Solar and wind power are available only when the sun shines or the wind blows.

This exercise is taking place in the shadow of last winter’s gas supply crisis, and in the wake of the Japanese nuclear plant disaster, which means new uncertainty about the futur e of nuclear. It’s taking place amid continuing concern over global warming as New Mexico experiences a genuinely scary drought.

Cost is a priority, so you have to evaluate each power source not only for operational costs but also for construction. New Mexico’s coal plants are already built.

Peak demand is another factor. The system has to be able to run the air conditioners on the hottest days. Peak demand is different economically from base load, because when you put a generating source online for few days of the year, it makes eco-

nomic sense to build the least expensive machinery and if necessary use the most expensive fuel.

One critical variable is a possible carbon tax, which primarily affects the cost of coal. Computer simulations have been run for various combinations of power sources. By changing the cost of the carbon tax you can see how the cost factors will change. Above a certain tax rate, it becomes more desirable to add mor e of the other power sources.

People around the table are also thinking about the nonmeasured environmental costs.

I’m thinking that wind generators, like jet engines, kill birds.

We don’t have good data for the environmental effects of acres upon acres of reflective solar panels. What do we sacrifice

when energy generation uses all that water? And where do they get the raw materials for those photovoltaic panels? These issues raise the level of complexity to the point where we could not have a coherent discussion.

But we all know that in the real world everything is related to everything else.

We are challenged today as never before to look at reality without flinching, without fantasies and without blaming anybody for our current predicament. When we do, it becomes clear that, as with other issues that we confront today — gover nment budgets, the health care system and all the rest — our lifestyle is stretching the boundaries of what the world can sustain. The only truly clean solution to our long-range energy needs is to need less. © New Mexico News Service 2011

Same old stalemate

It’s too bad for the Republican Party that Benjamin Netanyahu is not an American citizen. The Israeli prime minister would make a formidable presidential candidate.

Addressing a joint session of Congress last week (at the invitation of House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio), Mr. Netanyahu commanded the House podium with dignity, eloquence, humor and toughness. Though he was perhaps more deferential to President Barack Obama than a GOP presidential candidate would have been, Mr. Netanyahu demonstrated the proper Republican intransigence: He’s unwilling go along with Mr. Obama’s recommendations for moving negotiations between Israel and its Palestinian neighbors out of stalemate.

“Israel is not what is wrong about the Middle East,” Mr. Netanyahu said, hitting the applause line like the seasoned pro he is.

“Israel is what is right about the Middle East.”

Of course, Obama never said it wasn’t. In a speech at the State Department earlier this month, and again last week in remarks to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, Obama merely noted the geopolitical reality that the time will never be better for Israel to seek a permanent peace with the Palestinians. “(W)e can’t afford to wait another decade, or another two decades, or another three decades, to achieve peace,” Obama told the AIPAC meeting. “The world is moving too fast.

The world is moving too fast. The extraordinary challenges facing Israel will only grow.

Delay will undermine Israel’s security and the peace that the Israeli people deserve.”

The “Arab Spring” uprising in Egypt has created deep uncertainty. No one knows what Egypt’s new government will look like, but there’s no guarantee it will want to continue the peace with Israel that Anwar Sadat brokered and Hosni Mubarak continued.

There also is new uncertainty about Israeli relations with Turkey and Jordan. Israel’s Arab minority population is growing and by 2025 could be 20 percent of its population.

Europe is increasingly pro-Palestinian. In September, when the Palestinian Authority is expected to seek a United Nations resolution in favor of Palestinian statehood, only a U.S. veto in the Security Council will stand in the way.

The United States, always Israel’s best friend, is beginning to look like its only friend.

But this is only part of the reality.

Netanyahu outlined the other parts: The existential threat posed to Israel by Iran’s nuclear program. Rockets raining out of Gaza onto Israeli homes. Alliances, formal and informal, among the Palestinians and the terrorist groups Hezbollah and Hamas.

As a fundamental precondition for peace talks, Netanyahu demanded that Mahmoud Abbas, president of the Palestinian Authority, declare, “I will accept a Jewish state.”

This is reasonable. Netanyahu may not be willing to return Israel’s borders to those that existed between 1948 and the Six-Day War of 1967, as Obama (and his two predecessors) have suggested.

If the Palestinians do not reciprocate, it would at least gain Israel a few more friends in the world. It could use them.

Guest Editorial The St. Louis Post-Dispatch DEAR DR. GOTT: I am a 68year -old female who has been diagnosed with atrial fibrillation.

My family doctor has sent me to three cardiologists, one of whom was an electrophysiology cardiologist. I have received three prognoses. The first told me that I am getting old, so I just have to live with it and it wouldn’t cause any damage to my heart. The second did a heart catheterization and told me that my heart was great.

He confirmed the a-fib, told me that it wasn’t dangerous, and gave me 25 milligrams of atenolol to take every day. I do not have high blood pressure or chest pain, for which the medication is normally given, and it makes me listless and drops my pressure to 90/44.

Iraqis wary of decision on U.S. troops LARA JAKES AND QASSIM ABDUL-ZAHRA ASSOCIATED PRESS

BAGHDAD (AP) — The Obama administration is ready to play ball on keeping thousands of U.S. troops in Iraq beyond this year. But for Iraq’s gover nment, in the words of one lawmaker, the issue is like playing with fire.

No amount of advising, cajoling or even pushing by Washington so far has spurred Baghdad to decide if it really wants all 46,000 American troops currently in Iraq to leave by Dec. 31, as required by a security agree-

The third physician, the electrophysiology cardiologist, also confirmed that I had atrial fibrillation and told me to continue taking the atenolol. He said that a-fib could cause a stroke, so I needed the drug even though I have no symptoms that the medication treats. I have had four episodes in the past year, each one lasting

ment. Negotiations between the two nations have not even started, and it likely will be weeks if not months more before they do.

Even if Iraq asks the U.S. to keep troops here, there are no guarantees Baghdad ultimately will let it happen. Iraq’s parliament almost certainly will have to agree, and lawmakers are leery of embracing the American military.

“It’s a fireball. No one can hold it,” Sadiq al-Rikabi, an influential Shiite Muslim lawmaker and ally of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, said Wednesday with a wan smile.

So far, al-Rikabi said, politi-

longer than the one before. What do you recommend? How dangerous is it? Should I take a medication that treats symptoms I don’t have?

DEAR READER: Atrial fibrillation is an abnor mal heart rhythm that causes the heart to race, skip beats and may cause palpitations (feelings of the heart beating and/or skipping beats).

There are two types, chronic and paroxysmal. The latter for m occurs on occasion and resolves spontaneously. You are likely suffering from paroxysmal a-fib.

I don’t know that I would classify a-fib as dangerous, but it definitely has some dangers connected to it. Because the blood is not pumping through correctly, the abnormal rhythm can cause the formation of blood clots with-

cal enemies have used the troops quandary to taint their rivals: “The head of the political blocs want to throw it to another party to burn them.”

The U.S. has made clear that President Barack Obama is seeking to keep thousands of American forces in Iraq past 2011 for the sake of security — despite his campaign promise to bring all the troops home by the end of the year.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates, speaking last week in Washington, said “the United States will be willing to say yes” if Iraq asks for the troops to stay.

It’s widely believed that

Prevention is through the use of drugs, such as certain heart medications and anticoagulants, which ease the pumping of the heart and make the blood less sticky. This essentially makes it harder for a clot to form.

The atenolol you have been prescribed, a beta-blocker, would be appropriate if you require rate control for your a-fib. There are alternatives to beta-blockers for control; however, they tend to lower blood pressure. If, on the other hand, you do not require rate control, you may only need an anticoagulant.

Baghdad will, in fact, ask. But so far, “there is no negotiation,” a senior diplomat at the U.S. Embassy said. “There is no formalized or even informal request.”

The White House is willing to keep 10,000 to 12,000 forces in Iraq for a limited time, according to a senior administration of ficial in Washington. A senior U.S. military official in Baghdad said the administration is weighing what the troops’ mission would be before setting a new deadline for them to go

A senior Iraqi lawmaker said the U.S. forces will remain on nine bases in hotspots across the nation and stay up to four years longer — or right before Obama, if re-elected in 2012, leaves office.

All the officials spoke on condition of anonymity to describe the internal government talks frankly.

Iraqi Kurds and most Sunni Muslim leaders want American forces to stay, as do many Shiite politicians.

In an interview last week, Deputy Prime Minister Hussain al-Shahristani said Iraq’s air force and navy are not ready to defend the nation’s air space or waters, leaving its lucrative oil exports vulnerable.

Within Iraq, security forces are still battling an active if weakened al-Qaida.

They also have to contend with Shiite militia attacks on politicians and security forces, and the specter of ethnic violence between Kurds and Arabs over disputed oil-rich lands in the north.

But keeping American forces in Iraq risks the political — and potentially lethal — wrath of two of al-Maliki’s most powerful if uneasy Shiite allies: Iran and the cleric Muqtada al-Sadr.

Prodded by Iran, al-Sadr put aside years of fighting with al-Maliki and provided the crucial support to let the prime minister keep his job in a coalition government after national elections in 2010 resulted in no clear winner. AlSadr’s supporters now control key government agencies and have threatened to revolt if the U.S. troops they term “occupiers” remain in Iraq in 2012.

Such a revolt could spill over into sectarian violence, which al-Sadr’s militia appears all too eager to re-ignite. Thousands of Sadrists are expected to rally in Baghdad in a show of might that likely will yield dire warnings to U.S. forces to get out by the end of the year.

Iran has made no secret of its rancor over U.S. forces on neighboring soil, and intelligence of ficials believe recent attacks on American soldiers in Iraq have been carried out by Shiite militias acting at Tehran’s behest.

Al-Maliki has worked to improve relations with Iran, the only other Shiite-led government in the Mideast. The neighboring nations fought a bloody eightyear war under Saddam Hussein’s regime, but Tehran has had growing influence over Iraq’s political and economic decisions during al-Maliki’s tenure as premier.

The senior U.S. Embassy of ficial described a “large, uncomfortable feeling” among Iraqis over the prospect of

to date or have an ongoing relationship that doesn’t seem to be all that comfortable, you will find some straightforward answers in “Toxic Men: 10 Ways to Identify, Deal With, and Heal From the Men Who Make Your Life Miserable.” It could also help with toxic women.

One age old hint is still true; if your intuition tells you that something is not right, pay attention. You may feel anxious, edgy or restless, but decide to give them a second, third, fourth chance, or more, brushing off your feelings as irrelevant.

However, these are warning signs and Lillian Glass will help you recognize and act on those feelings instead of ignoring them.

A special section is included on detecting toxic men online, especially for those who are contemplating online dating. Since the Internet affords anonymity, it often allows people to be who they want to be, instead of who they really are. Since you can’t see or hear them, learn ways to analyze their communication and other ways to decipher online dating through their “red flags.”

These include the use of toxic monikers which may tell what really matters to that person or overuse of cyber lingo and abbreviations which can be a sign of a different generation. Check out either the hardcover print copy or the new online eBook edition.

Now, for all the women who find those truly amazing, non-toxic, wonderful men and make a commitment to share their lives, the library has books and e-books on weddings. The e-book “Wedding Book” by Katie Martin is the definitive guide for anyone planning the perfect wedding. It features nontraditional weddings, multicultural and interfaith ceremonies, planning for an eco-friendly event and using the Internet to set up a wedding website and to buy products and services. So start shopping for your dream gown and accessories and plan your dream wedding.

U.S. troops staying. But opposition fueled by Iran, he said, “is a sustained, broad, all-lines-of-operation effort to basically hijack the Iraqi political system and ensure that we don’t stay.”

At the same time, Tehran has been feeding Baghdad’s rumor mill with reasons why it might agree to an extended U.S. military presence — providing good spin to save face if American troops stay. Among Iran’s top concerns, an allied Iraqi lawmaker said, is that Israel might use Iraq’s airspace to attack Iran’s nuclear facilities once U.S. forces leave.

The U.S. also is looking beyond Iraq’s borders in its political calculus of whether its military should stay or go.

Sandwiched between Iran and the Sunni-governed Mideast, Iraq is a fault line for tensions in a region roiled this year by popular unrest and, in Bahrain at least, sectarian fighting. And the U.S. worries that without its military in place, Iran will use Iraq as a byway to support Shiite militias in Syria and Lebanon.

The troops decision “has the ability to create a much bigger regional, as well as domestic, impact,” said Salman Shaikh, director of the Brookings Doha Center think tank in Qatar. “It’s been brewing for some time, but it’s about to come to a head precisely at the same time things are going on in the region.”

With the stakes so high, Baghdad won’t rush to decide before lawmakers are able to build a strong consensus.

“The decision will be a national one, with the agreement of all political blocs, away from political haggling,” alShahristani said.

The Pentagon announced last week that three new military units are rotating into Iraq this summer and fall to replace outgoing troops. All the forces are planning to leave by Dec. 31, as required under the current deadlines.

But troops have been told to be ready to stay if Iraq asks for them.

It’s a decision that likely will come down to the wire — despite urging last month by Joint Chiefs Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen for Iraq to make up its mind within weeks. The current security agreement was approved in 2008 by Iraq’s parliament only five weeks before it took effect.

“We do have deadlines, but if we’re expecting quick results and we push it too hard and don’t get a consensus, that is not a favorable situation,” Shaikh said.

physician felt it was necessary to refer you to three cardiologists. A-fib is a fairly common condition that he or she can likely monitor and treat himself or herself. I also take issue with some of the comments you received from the specialists. First, at age 68, you are hardly old, and this is not a condition that you should just learn to live with. Second, both the first and second cardiologists don’t seem to have taken the time to ease your concerns or properly explain the condition and it’s potential consequences. Finally, the third specialist should have worked with you to find a medication that would not cause your pressure to drop so low as to cause side effects. Atenolol is not the only medication used for the treatment of a-fib.

As for your next step, you have two options, as I see it. First, return to your family physician and discuss your con-

Or you can request a referral to a fourth cardiologist, perhaps one associated with a teaching hospital, and explain your current situation and confusion. In either situation, you should request a medication change because the atenolol doesn’t appear to be helping and is causing your problem. Also, inquire about taking a daily aspirin, whether a full-strength (325 milligrams) tablet or a low-dose (81 milligrams) pill, if you aren’t already taking it or another anticoagulant.

Nora True Johnson Henn

Nora T rue Johnson Henn, of Lincoln, passed away on Friday, May 13, 2011, at 7:20 a.m. She was born on May 23, 1925, to Albert Johnson and Nora Murray Johnson in Dallas.

Nora attended high school in Dallas, before moving to California to care for relatives. It was there that she met and married Walter Henn, June 27, 1945, in Los Angeles. The couple lived in Rochester, N.Y., where they worked for Kodak and then Cannandaigua, N.Y., where they operated a newsstand and soda shop.

Nora and Walter Henn were instrumental in organizing the Lincoln County Historical Society, as well as the historical ordinance that keeps Lincoln in the pristine condition that tourists delight in finding today. Walter was the first director of the Lincoln County Heritage Trust,

and both he and Nora were largely responsible for the restoration of the Dr. Woods House and Montano Store. Walter passed away in 1999 at 82.

“Nora True” as she was known to her many friends, was the mentor and friend of many who came to Lincoln to study its history.

Some, of whom, still live here. Among them: Lynda Sanchez, Herb Marsh and Drew and Elise Gomber.

Nora and Walter Henn came to Lincoln in 1965, and after Walter's passing, Nora continued work on her book about the history of Lincoln County— a detailed work that will probably never be equaled.

In the words of her friend, Frederick Nolan, of London, “Nora not only knew the history of Lincoln County and its wars, she even knew the gossip from the period!”

Nora is survived by her niece, Rebecca Leger, of Canada, and her family.While Nora never had any biological children, it can truly be said that Nora did, in fact, have many children—those mentioned

Roswell Daily Record above, as well as many others.

“For many years, Nora and I had breakfast every Sunday to discuss history and to socialize. I will treasure those memories to the end of my days,” historian Drew Gomber said.

“She had probably forgotten more of Lincoln’s history than I will ever know.”

A memorial service will be held at the San Juan Mission, in Lincoln, at 2 p.m., Sunday, June 5. In lieu of flowers, donations should be made to the Henn-Johnson and History Archives Foundation, P.O. Box 141, Lincoln, NM, 88338 or the Lincoln County Historical Society, P.O. Box 579, Lincoln, NM 88338.

Aurora Matta

A rosary will be recited for Aurora Matta, 64, a lifelong resident of Roswell, Tuesday, May 31, 2011, at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church at 1:30 p.m., followed by the funeral service at 2 p.m., with Deacon Louis Romero officiating. Burial will follow in South Park Cemetery.

Aurora passed away on

May 28, 2011, in Roswell.

Aurora was bor n on October 1, 1946, in Roswell, to Bruno and Refugia (Cortez) Matta. She was an active member of St. John’s until she became ill. Aurora worked for Levi’s until her retirement, after twenty years of service. She loved to hang out with her friends and family and will be missed by all.

Aurora is survived by one son Martin and his wife Vanessa Matta of Roswell; four brothers, Vincent Matta, Tony Matta, Bruno Matta and Mike Matta, all of Roswell; sister Helen Castillo of Roswell; and grandchildren, three Essence, Christina and Andrew.

Aurora was preceded in death by her parents, brothers, Frank and Fred and sister Manuela.

Please take a moment to share your thoughts and memories with the family, in the online register book at andersonbethany.com.

Arrangements are under the direction of Anderson Bethany Funeral Home and Crematory.

Angel Fire opens first season as ‘bike park’ ANGEL FIRE. (AP) — There are riders who can blaze down Angel Fire’s 2,000foot mountain in less than five minutes, but Hogan Koesis is currently more interested in everybody else.

As the manager of Angel Fire Bike Park, Koesis’ challenge is to make the Northern New Mexico resort just as accommodating to the beginning or intermediate rider as it long has been for the most proficient downhill whiz.

“I don’t really care about daredevils,” Koesis said last week as he stood among the carefully sculpted dirt mounds of the resort’s new bike skills park. “My passion is to be an advocate for the sport and introduce people (to it).”

Though the mountain has a 25-year history of summer riding, 2011 marks its first season as a “bike park” and today is its first day of operations as such.

It’s the latest ski resort to add the dimension, a trend that Koesis says dates back about a decade.

“The chair-lift accessible bike park has just grown so fast,” said Koesis, a former professional cross-country rider. “We’re still in the beginning stages of what’s possible.”

Angel Fire currently boasts 29 miles’ worth of trails for riders of all levels and interests, including cross-country, downhill and the “all-mountain” category. The park will offer rental bikes and clinics.

Visitors will also have access to the skills park and pump track at the base; each can be enjoyed on its own merits or used as a taste of the challenges that exist farther uphill.

Those who come coated in heavy-duty protective gear to ride their $5,000 bikes at top speed and over the rockiest and trickiest features always have been a mainstay at Angel Fire. For years, the trails were established by and for that type of rider, said Angel Fire’s marketing director, Dave Dekema.

Angel Fire has hosted events as highprofile as the 2005 Union Cyclist Interna-

tionale World Cup and the NCAA Collegiate Mountain Bike Championships, and many of the trails reflect that level of athlete.

“A lot of the downhill terrain built here was built for racing events,” Dekema said.

Although the resort aims to become a more inclusive, family-friendly bike destination, Dekema said it’s not at the expense of the ace riders.

“You can still ride the World Cup downhill trail, all the same very, very technical sections. There is terrain to attract those experts. They love it here, and we would not get rid of any of that,” Dekema said. “(But) we also want to cater to the people who see them and think ‘Wow. That looks fun and easy.’“ The park currently has 10 trails. Six of them are what Koesis called “black” or

NM study targets survival rates of newborn elk ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Northern New Mexico’s Valle Vidal is known for its mountain vistas, clear streams and prized elk herd.

Wildlife managers with the state Game and Fish Department want to keep it that way. That’s why they’re scouring the area in hopes of capturing and tagging with radio transmitters as many of this year’s baby elk as possible.

The herd’s calves have about a 25 percent survival rate right now and if those numbers don’t improve the population will ultimately start to decline, said Stewart Liley, the department’s elk program coordinator.

“The Valle Vidal herd is a well-known elk herd throughout New Mexico

and throughout the rest of the western United States, not only from the hunting aspect but for wildlife viewing,” he said. “It’s important for us to find a stable balance so we don’t have a population decline.”

Elk calf survival rates in the Valle Vidal have been slowly declining for about the past decade, Liley said. The state started the monitoring program in 2009 to find out what was happening.

So far, the problem appears to be predation by black bears, mountain lions and coyotes.

Researchers estimate that between 40 and 50 percent of the elk calves that turn up dead were done in by bears.

Most of the department’s efforts are focused

on the Valle Vidal because of the importance of the area’s elk herd, but similar studies are also being done on the Valles Caldera National Preserve and on the sprawling Gila National Forest in southern New Mexico.

Work began about two weeks ago with the start of calving season and will continue through the summer.

“We’re trying to see if we’re experiencing the same kind of mortality across the board. That will tell us a number of things,” said Rick Winslow, the department’s large carnivore biologist.

High calf mortality rates can reduce recruitment of more cow elk into the herd. With fewer cows, there will be fewer calves born each year.

expert-level. Four are considered “blue” or “green” and therefore designated intermediate or beginner.

“Most places have a ratio of 3-to-1 green and blue to black, and we’re almost the reverse,” Koesis said.

That will soon change. Although weather has been a factor and limited the amount of progress that could be made since the end of ski season — employees were working in the snow last week — three new trails will be finished at some point this season. They include a new cross-country trail with a four-mile lower loop and eight-mile upper loop, and “green” trail that will connect riders from the top of the chair lift to existing trails.

The new pump track and skills park can already accommodate riders.

Koesis likens the pump track to a “mini BMX track” and says the loop’s purpose

is to teach riders how to navigate miniature hills and berms without pedaling but by strategic body movements and gravity.

“It teaches you how to transfer energy efficiently,” he said.

The newest riders can get their bearings on a basic skills park route that lines up a series of wooden ramps (each about 1 1/2 feet high) and a teensy rock garden.

The skills park also includes a series of “jump lines,” each composed of three earthen hills. There’s a row for each level of rider, with the most advanced getting the tallest jumps.

A bumpy jumble of rocks simulates terrain on the park’s most challenging trails.

The skills park incorporates elements that an experienced athlete would enjoy but creates an environment that appeals to the newbies, Koesis said.

“When you have something like this, it’s easy to learn with low risk,” he said.

“It’s not to the point where you’re rolling the dice.”

Koesis said he’s not interested in sending people to the hospital. In fact, his initial work at Angel Fire involved making everything safer.

“What we did a lot of last year was manage things. There are no puddles on the trail anymore; there’s no more dangerous sticks pointing at your face,” he said. “You have a sign you can follow down the mountain and not get lost.”

After working last year as a contractor, Koesis has been hired on at Angel Fire and is in the midst of his five-year bike park plan. He intends to add three trails this year, plus another each year after that, including cross-country trails on the back of the mountain.

Dekema said the resort is making “a six-figure investment” with the hopes that the payoff is 10,000 riders per season, up from about 3,000 to 4,000 in past years.

“We could be the Southwest’s destination point for bike riders,” Koesis said.

“There’s a lot of potential.”

Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad repairs hampered by May weather ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The holiday weekend marked the opening of summer season for the historic Cumbres & Toltec Scenic Railroad. But the long-awaited reopening of the tourist train’s full route remains on hold.

Repairs to the fire-damaged sections of the historic Lobato Trestle, about four miles north of Chama, have been hampered by a wet and snowy May. That means passengers who had been expecting to board the train in Chama will instead have to hop a shuttle to the Cumbres station 11 miles away, beyond the damaged 100-foot-high trestle.

That also means more waiting for Chama merchants, whose livelihoods were dealt a blow after the fire last June prevented the train from making the full run between Chama and Antonito for most of the 2010 season.

Just over a week ago, the Cumbres & Toltec had proudly proclaimed May 28 would be “a very joyful day in Chama” because trestle repairs would be completed and the train would once again ply the 60plus mile route through the high country bordering the south San Juan Wilderness in southern Colorado.

“We were perhaps more optimistic than we should have been,” Bill Hume, a member of the train’s board of directors, told the Albuquerque Journal last week. “After last year, we were so anxious to have this

done.”

The delay is due in large part to wild May weather. It has continued to snow at the trestle, just below the 10,000-foot Cumbres Pass and the second-highest trestle on the line. Randy Payment, the superintendant on the trestle rebuilding job for Wyomingbased contractor Reiman Corp. SW, said it snowed at the trestle Tuesday, and the temperature dipped to 20 degrees once the sun went down.

“It gets cold and wet and miserable,” he said.

Reiman employees have been pulling double shifts on the job in recent weeks, and much of their work consists of trudging up and down the steep sides of Wolf Creek Canyon, which is spanned by the trestle, sometimes while carrying 80-pound bags of concrete, Payment said. Workers have carved steps into the dirt, but progress moves much slower when the ground is wet or slick. Work on the trestle itself is all but impossible in bad conditions.

“It snows two or three days every week, and the steel gets wet and slippery,” Payment said.

And once work began to fix the heat damage — the steel on the trestle was badly warped by the fire — more issues were uncovered, like cracks in the concrete bases where the trestle’s legs fix to the ground. No definite cause of the fire was ever determined.

RDR Business Review Page is an effective way to advertise

The Roswell Daily Record’s Business Review Page is a great way for a business to advertise. The Business Review Pages run three times a week, in the Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday pages.

There are a few spots available right now on the Tuesday and Thursday pages. We usually have a “waiting list”.

The Daily Record’s Sarah Juarez can fill you in on the complete details. Phone Sarah at 622-7710 - ext. 15.

• • The basic setup for the Business Review Page is as follows: You sign up and we run your ad on the bottom half of the Business Review Page on it’s assigned day (Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday) each week. We have a maximum of twenty-six ads running per page.

After advertising weekly for six months, you will receive a ‘free feature article’ (then another free one six months after your first free one and so on) as our “Thank

You!” for advertising on the Business Review Page.

This six month schedule comes from having up to twenty-six advertisers per page and a fifty-two week year.

With ads starting as low as $26.78 (including tax,) per week, the Business Review Page is ideal for businesses large and small to obtain effective advertising on a small budget.

The feature article typically uses two photographs and the equivalent of two double-spaced typewritten pages of information about your business.

It’s an ad that looks like a written story. This info usually consists of what you have to offer (services and/or product,) who you are (history,) where you are located, when you are open and how to get in touch with you.

The typical layout can be altered to fit your circumstance. If you want more pictures, we can cut down on the article’s length. We do what ever works best for you.

Bill Flynt is the Business Review Page Editor.

Bill takes the photographs and either writes the text (with your input,) or uses an article that you provide for your feature story. We can also use your photographs, if you have ones you want to use.

Many local business owners (like the three pictured) have found this feature to be an ideal way for them to advertise economically. They have an ad in the Roswell Daily Record once a week, on their regular day, and then they have a half page write-up with pictures twice a year to tell the story of their business to prospective customers.

Call Sarah Juarez at 622-7710, ext. 15, for complete information and prices.

You’ve got to advertise to stay in business, and the Roswell Daily Record's Business Review Page is an effective way to do it.

ROSWELL DAILY RECORD — CALL 622-7710

MIAMI (AP) — Hip-hop singer Sean Kingston has been stabilized and moved to the intensive care unit at a hospital after crashing his watercraft into a Miami Beach bridge, his publicist said Monday.

The publicist, Joseph Carozza, said Kingston’s family is grateful for everyone’s prayers and support.

Kingston and a female passenger were injured when the watercraft hit the Palm Island Bridge around 6 p.m. Sunday, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission spokesman Jorge Pino said.

The Miami Herald reports that a passing boater saw the accident and took the two on board his vessel.

Both were hospitalized early Monday at Ryder Trauma Center, but Pino said he didn’t know their conditions.

Authorities are investigating the crash, and “nothing at this point would indicate that alcohol played a role,” Pino said.

Kingston rose to fame with his 2007 hit “Beautiful Girls” and was also featured on songs by artists including Justin Bieber. His self-titled debut album sold over 1 million copies worldwide.

On Twitter, Bieber posted a message of support for Kingston.

“Got my friend Sean Kingston in my prayers tonight,” Bieber tweeted early Monday. “A true friend and big bro.

Please keep him in your prayers tonight as well.”

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS ANIMAL RIGHTS GROUP BUYS VICK’S FORMER COMPOUND NORFOLK, Va. (AP) — An animal rights group bought NFL star Michael Vick’s former dogfighting compound on Friday and plans to turn it into a rehabilitation center for chained and penned dogs.

Vick pleaded guilty to federal felony charges and served 18 months in prison for running Bad Newz Kennels from the property, which led him to financial ruin. He eventually sold the Surry County property to a developer who had difficulty unloading it following Vick’s conviction.

Dogs Deserve Better of Tipton, Pa., bought the five bedroom home for about $600,000.

“I think by us overtaking this property we are winning for the dogs. We are, in essence, giving this property back to the dogs that were abused there by using it to help other dogs just like them,” said Tamira Thayne, the group’s founder.

The organization paid for the house with a 30 percent down payment secured through donations and a loan. An anonymous donor has agreed to make payments for the next ten years, but Thayne said fundraising will continue.

Ultimately, the group wants to raise $3 million to fully pay for the site, install fencing and build a facility for the dogs. The house will serve as the group’s new headquarters and Thayne said she or another staff member will live there to monitor the dogs.

The home has four and a half bathrooms, two fireplaces, cathedral ceilings, walk-in closets and an attached, two-car garage.

Thayne said she has not had any contact with Vick but has been told a filmmaker wants to take Vick back to the property where the dogfighting occurred.

Goose Crew triumphs again at HISI LAWRENCE FOSTER RECORD SPORTS REPORTER

Teams in Hike It and Spike It’s Men’s Show Me the Money division sure wish Goose Crew would take a few more years off.

Coming into the 2011 tournament, Crew had won three of the previous four Money titles. The one time Crew didn’t take home the cash was in 2010, when they didn’t compete.

On Sunday, Crew made it four out of the last five as they cruised to the title with a 33-19 win over Skin.

Skin opened the title tilt with possession and picked up a first down on a pass to Damon Morton on second down.

The drive ended on the next play, however, as Crew’s Manny Sanabia intercepted a pass in the end zone.

Crew’s first drive started with a 12-yard completion to Albert Espinoza. Another completion on a slant to Espinoza gave Crew a first down at the Skin 20.

On first down, Crew quarterback Jorge Cascudo hit Espinoza yet again and the wide out brought the ball to the 1.

After an incompletion on second down, Cascudo found Albert Leon in the back of the end zone to give Crew a 7-0 lead after a onepoint conversion to Carlos Jaime.

Skin opened its next drive with completions to Morton and Greg Velasco, which resulted in a first down at the Crew 23, but a pass break up by Sanabia, a drop by Velasco and an incomplete pass gave Crew possession again.

Two completions moved the ball to the Crew 24 and, on third down, they converted in a big way.

Sanabia ran a post and Cascudo hit him in stride.

The 2011 Show Me the Money Division champions Goose Crew pose with tournament sponsors and organizers after beating Skin 33-21 in the championship game, Sunday. It marked the fourth championship for the team in the past five years at the annual Hike It and Spike It flag football tournament.

A Skin defender had the angle on Cascudo so he pitched the ball to Jaime at the 10. Jaime then faked a lateral to Espinoza which cleared enough room for him to reach the end zone.

After a failed conversion attempt, Crew led 13-0.

The Crew defense put the game away on the next Skin possession.

On first down, Skin quarterback Chuck Lozano found Lee Aguirre for a 7yard gain. On second down, Jaime jumped a slant pattern and returned the interception 17 yards for a touchdown. After the one-point conversion to Espinoza, Crew had a commanding 20-0 lead.

Skin finally got on the board at the end of the first half when Morton hauled in a 22-yard scoring pass to See GOOSE, Page B2

ON THIS DAY IN...

AP Photo In this March 30 file photo, Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel arrives at a news conference in Columbus, Ohio. Ohio State announced Monday that Tressel has resigned as the NCAA investigates the Buckeyes for possible rules violations.

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Jim Tressel, who guided Ohio State to its first national title in 34 years, resigned Monday amid NCAA violations from a tattoo-parlor scandal that sullied the image of one of the country’s top football programs.

“After meeting with university officials, we agreed that it is in the best interest of Ohio State that I resign as head football coach,” Tressel wrote in the resignation letter he submitted on Monday morning.

“The recent situation has been a distraction for our great university and I make this decision for the greater good of the school.”

Luke Fickell will be the coach for the 2011 season. He already had been selected to be the interim coach while T ressel served a five-game suspension.

Ohio State spokesman Jim Lynch said he was unaware of any buyout or severance package. He added that Tressel had returned from vacation Sunday night and met with athletic director Gene Smith, who then met with staff. Tressel typed his resignation and submitted it to Smith, he said.

Under terms of Tressel’s contract, which was worth around $3.5 million a year through the 2014 season, Ohio State is not required to pay him any money or provide any benefits upon his resignation.

In a university video posted on YouTube.com, Smith said Tressel met with

his Buckeyes players on Monday morning.

“Coach Tressel did what we all knew he would do,” Smith said. “He did an eloquent job of explaining to the young men what transition really means and what they really needed to focus on. So he met with the team and exited.”

Smith went on to thank Tressel, express his confidence in Fickell and to say that Ohio State would not comment on “any of the matters around (the NCAA) case or any further accusations that may emerge.”

The resignation was first reported by The Columbus Dispatch.

Clearly, the turmoil had been building.

The resignation comes nearly three months after Ohio State called a news conference to announce it has suspended Tressel for two games — later increasing the ban to five games to coincide with the players’ punishment — and fined him $250,000 for knowing his players had received improper benefits from a local tattoo-parlor owner. The school said at the time it was “very surprised and disappointed” in Tressel. Yet, the school still managed to crack jokes.

Asked if he considered firing Tressel, Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee said then: “No, are you kidding? Let me just be very clear: I’m just hopeful the coach does not dismiss me.”

cut the lead to 20-6 entering the second half.

Crew opened the second half with the ball and quickly grew its lead back to 20.

After an incompletion on first down, a catch by Sanabia moved the ball to Crew’s 22.

On third down, Sanabia was once again the target and he caught the pass at the Skin 20. A Skin defender failed to break down and flew by Sanabia and, at the 10, Sanabia faked to the middle before cutting back to the outside, which made Aguirre fall to the ground. Crew couldn’t convert on a one-point attempt, but led 26-6.

Skin scored a touchdown on its next possession, but Crew matched the score, ending any hopes of a comeback.

Championship Semifinal

Skin 19, Dallas Blackout 6 The 2010 Show Me the Money champions Dallas Blackout couldn’t defend its title and fell to Skin in the semis.

With the wind howling, Blackout started the game with three consecutive deep passes that the wind took out of the field of play.

After the turnover on downs, Skin needed just three plays to take the lead.

On Skin’s first play, Lozano hit Clarence Moore on the sideline for a 13-yard gain. Skin picked up the first down on a 12-yard catch by Velasco and a penalty moved the ball to the Blackout 10.

Skin took the lead for good on the next play as Lozano found Aguirre in the end zone for a 6-0 lead.

Blackout once again turned the ball over on downs on its next drive.

Skin needed just two plays to score.

On first down, Aguirre caught an 8-yard pass, which was followed by Morton getting behind the Blackout defense for an easy touchdown that gave Skin a 12-0 lead.

The score would remain 12-0 until Blackout’s first drive of the second half.

Blackout picked up its first first down of the game on the first play of the drive on a flag-football type play.

Dallas quarterback Pat Alley hit Fred McDonald at midfield and McDonald lateralled the ball to Deerick Jackson, who proceeded to pitch it to Chad Dixon. Dixon had his flag pulled at the 1, but on the next play, he caught a quick shovel pass for the score. Blackout failed to convert a one-point try and trailed 12-9.

Dallas forced a three-and-out on Skin’s next drive, but couldn’t hold on to the momentum or the ball and turned

Invaders beat Vaqueros

The Roswell Invaders picked up another home victory on Saturday by defeating visiting Las Cruces 8-5 at Joe Bauman Stadium.

The Invaders jumped out a 5-0 lead, but Las Cruces rallied to tie the game at 5-5 after six before Roswell pulled away.

In the bottom of the sixth, Matt Palko and Adrian Martinez each reached to open the inning to bring Brycen Bell to the plate for the Invaders.

Bell singled into right, but Vaquero right fielder Steve Detweiler misplayed the ball, allowing Palko to score from second for the go-ahead run.

In the seventh, Clifton Thomas doubled to lead off the inning and then scored on a sacrifice fly by Troy Frazier. Trivon Howard, who had reached on a single after Thomas’ double, scored the final run when Las Cruces’ Dan Pembrooke couldn’t handle a ball off the bat of Adrian Martinez.

Frustration from the Las Cruces dugout boiled over in the eighth inning when both benches cleared after a Vaqueros coach disagreed with an umpire’s call on a pickoff attempt at first base.

After order was restored, Roswell’s Yoshinori Machida finished off the eighth and Anthony Carrillo came on in the ninth to earn the save.

Brian Fowler earned the win for the Invaders and also drove in two runs at the plate.

Bell finished the game 3 for 4 at the plate for Roswell, while Josh Cakebread and Frazier each had RBIs.

The Invaders return to the field Wednesday when they host White Sands in the first game of a four-game series at Joe Bauman Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 7:05 p.m.

Jets WR Edwards makes good on tuition promise

NEW YORK (AP) — Braylon Edwards has made good on a promise he made a few years ago by sending 100 Cleveland-area students to college.

The New York Jets wide receiver tweeted Thursday that “as the 2nd most hated man in Clev & a man of my word,” he was honoring his commitment to pay for the students’ college tuitions if they reached certain academic goals.

Edwards is giving about $1 million to the students from the ADVANCE 100 program, established by the receiver’s foundation while he was playing in Cleveland.

“Guys, enjoy and embrace your new beginnings,” Edwards tweeted, “and remember your promise to me, to reach back & help someone else along the way.”

Edwards is scheduled to be a free agent, but says he wants to stay with the Jets.

Tressel

Continued from Page B1

Gee was not joking about the Tressel situation over the weekend. Ohio State released a letter from Gee to the university’s board of trustees which said, “As you all know, I appointed a special committee to analyze and provide advice to me regarding issues attendant to our football program. In consultation with the senior leadership of the university and the senior leadership of the board, I have been actively reviewing the matter and have accepted coach Tressel’s resignation.”

Tressel’s downfall came with public and media pressure mounting on Ohio State, its board of trustees, Gee and Smith.

“We look forward to refocusing the football program on doing what we do best — representing this extraordinary university and its values on the field, in the classroom, and in life,” Smith said in a statement Monday. “We look forward to supporting Luke Fickell in his role as our football coach. We have full confidence in his ability to lead our football program.”

Tressel and Ohio State were to go before the NCAA’s infractions committee Aug. 12 to answer questions about the player violations and why Tressel did not report them.

He denied knowledge of improper benefits to players until confronted by investigators with emails that showed he had known since April 2010.

After several NCAA violations by him or his players over the years, Tressel’s problems deepened after learning several players received cash or discounted tattoos.

Contrary to NCAA bylaws — and his own contract — Tressel received emails from a former player about this and did not tell his athletic director, university president, compliance or legal departments or the NCAA for more than nine months.

The 58-year-old Tressel had a record of 106-22-0 at Ohio State. He led the Buckeyes to eight Bowl Championship Series games in his 10 years. Combined with a 135-57-2 record in 15 years at Youngstown State, where he won four Division I-AA national championships, Tres-

Bradley wins Byron Nelson

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Walking down the 18th fairway during a playoff and realizing he was about to get his first PGA Tour victory, Keegan Bradley got emotional thinking about a cowbell.

The one that is in the World Golf Hall of Fame. The one his grandmother rang after every win by his famous aunt, LPGA Tour great Pat Bradley, whose 31 victories included six majors.

“It was like pull it together, don’t start thinking about the cowbell,” Keegan Bradley said. “The cowbell in my family is an iconic thing.”

Bradley settled himself and won the Byron Nelson Championship, parring the first hole of a playoff with Ryan Palmer on Sunday.

Bradley sank a 2-foot par putt at the 419yard 18th hole in the playoff, while Palmer’s approach went into the water before a 13foot bogey putt.

Bradley, a PGA Tour rookie who never won on the Nationwide Tour, got his first professional victory nine days before his 25th birthday. He looked forward to talking to his aunt.

“She is a lot calmer on the golf course than she is watching me. I’m sure she was by the TV going crazy,” Bradley said. “I talk to her regularly through text messages and phone calls about tournaments and what it’s like to come down near the end. ... This is the closest thing we ever had in common in terms of playing.”

About an hour before the playoff, Bradley finished his closing round of 2-under 68 with a par at No. 18, dropping into a squat and hopping a few times in frustration when his 10-foot birdie chance slid by the hole.

Palmer (72) and Bradley finished at 3under 277, the highest winning score on the PGA Tour this year — and the highest in relation to par in a non-major since 1999. It was the fifth playoff in six weeks and 10th overall.

Palmer forced the extra hole with a 6-foot putt at No. 18 for only the second birdie there all day. When that putt dropped, Palmer punched his right fist in the air and then raised both arms over his head.

Bradley and Palmer then played No. 18 again, both going way right with their tee shots to start the playoff.

Tournament volunteers quickly dismantled and moved a temporary lemonade stand to give Bradley, a Vermont native who played at St. John’s, a line of sight to the green and avoid the necessity for a drop.

Bradley’s approach was dangerously close to sliding off the side of the green into the water, but stayed up. Palmer went in the same direction but his ball didn’t stay dry.

“I had a clear punch shot but it’s so easy to hit it left when I’m trying to hit a punch like that, and it squared left a little bit,” he said. “Then my putt, just wanted to tease myself a little more, I guess. But I got into the position to win the golf tournament and that’s all I can ask for.”

Ryuji Imada (71) and Joe Ogilvie (70) finished a stroke back at 2 under. Imada bogeyed three of his last four holes after getting to 5 under.

Defending Nelson champion Jason Day (67) was fifth at 1 under.

sel’s career mark was 241-79-2.

The author of two books about faith and integrity, he remains a scapegoat to many and a hypocrite to others. Even though he has many backers, a rising chorus of detractors had stepped forward during the ongoing NCAA investigation. There were also questions about his players and their friends and family members receiving special deals on used cars from two Columbus dealers.

But at one time his image was that of an honest, religious man who never said or did anything without thinking it through first. His nickname was “The Senator” for never having a hair out of place, praising opponents and seldom giving a clear answer to even the simplest of questions.

He’d gotten into trouble with the NCAA even before coming to Ohio State. He was the coach at Youngstown State when it received scholarship and recruiting restrictions for violations involving star quarterback Ray Isaacs.

Still, Andy Geiger, then Ohio State’s athletic director, favored Tressel over Min-

nesota coach and former Buckeyes linebacker Glen Mason for the job after John Cooper was fired in January 2001.

Cooper was let go ostensibly because the program lost direction. But perhaps more damaging was his 210-1 record against rival Michigan and 3-8 mark in bowl games.

SPORTS / HOROSCOPES / CLASSIFIEDS

Roswell Daily Record

Wheldon wins Indy 500 after leader crashes on final turn turn into Victory Lane.

“It’s obviously unfortunate, but that’s Indianapolis,” said Wheldon, who won Indy in 2005 and finished second the last two years.

“That’s why it’s the greatest spectacle in racing. You never now what’s going to happen.”

This might have been the whackiest one ever.

In his first event of the year, Wheldon captured the ultimate IndyCar prize. But the 100th anniversary of the

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Dan Wheldon was zipping toward the final corner of Sunday’s Indianapolis 500, surely figuring the best he could do was another runner-up finish.

Then he came upon JR Hildebrand’s crumpled car, all smashed up and sliding along the wall.

The rookie had made the ultimate mistake with his very last turn of the wheel, and Wheldon, not Hildebrand, made an improbable

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

BIGAR ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Your finances need to take precedence. If you don't have the funds, you don't have the funds. Accept YOUR HOROSCOPE that premise, and an alternate path will open up. Give up hitting your head against the same brick wall. Tonight: Hang out with some fun buddies.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Use the daylight hours to the max. You will accomplish whatever you feel must be done. Remain clear about your limitations. Honor what needs to happen in order to move forward and change your perspective. Tonight: Purchase that item you have been eyeing.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You might feel funky now, but late today you start feeling better and better.

Handle what you must behind the scenes, and don't stress yourself out. You can count on your energy returning. Remain present, knowing you have limits. Postpone important decisions. Tonight: Are you feeling your Wheaties?

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Keep reaching out for Legals

Legals

“Greatest Spectacle in Racing” will be remembered more for the guy who let it slip away with the checkered flag in sight.

Leading by almost 4 seconds and needing to make it around the 2 1/2-mile track just one more time, Hildebrand cruised through the first three turns with no problem.

The fourth one got him.

He went too high, lost control and slammed into the outside wall. Wheldon sped

past, while Hildebrand’s battered machine skidded across the line 2.1 seconds behind, still hugging the concrete barrier.

“It’s a helpless feeling,” Hildebrand said.

The 23-year-old Californian got into trouble when he came up on another rookie, Charlie Kimball, going much slower as they approached the last corner. Instead of backing off, the leader moved to the outside to make the pass — a decision

someone at a distance, knowing there is much more to discuss on a deeper level. The conversation could be a tad overdue, but it's doable. Make the first effort to communicate. Think positively. Tonight: Take some much-desired personal time.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH "Visualize and create" needs to be your slogan today. If you can think it, there is a strong possibility you can make that thought a reality.

Follow your heart, and you will make an authentic choice.

Tonight: Where the gang is.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Clearly, not everyone has the same response as you. Open up to new possibilities. You can and will make a difference. Realize what is important ultimately to your professional situation, and head down that path. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Your perception could be sort of avant garde. You might be determining what is necessary to act on. Perhaps being rational might not serve you. A brainstorming session could reveal some exciting news. Tonight: Don't sit on your haunches; go forward.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Listen to the drums beat. A partner might have a lot to say. Utilize this person's thoughts in a functional way, perhaps incorporating some of his or her ideas into a project or work-related matter. Giving those around you the sense that their thoughts count always is key. Tonight: Make a point of touching base with a loved one.

that sent him slamming into the wall to a collective gasp from the crowd of 250,000.

“I caught him in the wrong piece of track,” Hildebrand said. “I got up in the marbles and that was it.”

While Wheldon celebrated his second Indy 500 win, series officials reviewed the video to see if Wheldon passed the wrecked machine before the caution lights went on. He clearly did, and Hildebrand’s team said it wouldn’t protest the result.

That gave the Brit another spot on the Borg-Warner Trophy.

Not bad, considering he doesn’t even have a full-time job.

“I just felt a lot of relief.

It’s an incredible feeling,” Wheldon said. “I never gave up.”

He took the traditional swig of milk and headed off on a triumphant lap around the speedway — a lap that Hildebrand should have been taking.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH Let your fiery temperament dominate. You know what must be done, but you do need to include others. Share ideas. Let them feel as if they are part of what is going on. Creativity surges even more when two minds play off each other.

Tonight: Go with another person's ideas.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Of all signs, you understand the role of a strong foundation and long-term thinking. Allowing for more innovative thinking might threaten the status quo, but it also could make life better.

Infuse a situation with that energy. Tonight: Your pad.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Move forward.

You might be tempted to share an important revelation.

Until you feel more sure of yourself, hold off. Creativity surges in a conversation, especially if you plug in an idea or two. Be willing to work with what evolves. Tonight: Act on the moment.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Listen to what you know is important. Refuse to sell yourself short. By nature, you will see a situation differently in a few days. A smile goes a long way in helping others feel more at home.

Use care with an investment involving property, real estate or your home. Tonight: Order in.

DEAR ABBY: My wife is a wonderful woman who did a great job of rearing our large family, but our house was often too cluttered to suit my mother who, in those years, was judgmental and critical of my wife.

Years later, things have changed. My father passed away, the kids are grown and gone, and my mother is growing more lonely and needy every day. She now wants to spend time with us, but because she never developed a close friendship with my wife, my wife tolerates her but does not welcome her.

I love them both, but I’m becoming frustrated having to constantly choose and juggle schedules so I can keep Mom’s feelings from getting hurt.

Abby, please tell mothers-inlaw to build bridges while they can. Someday it may be too late. But any advice for me?

SPREAD THIN IN OKLAHOMA DEAR SPREAD THIN: Your cautionary tale deserves space in my column.

When your wife joined the family, instead of building bridges, your mother dynamited them. It’s not surprising your wife feels the way she does at the prospect of spending time with her mother-inlaw. Of course, while some degree of compromise is necessary, your mother should also be encouraged to find activities and contemporaries whose

Dear Heloise: Thank you to the reader who wrote about having all of your information ready when PHONING A CALL CENTER. I take calls all day long at a call center.

DEAR ABBY: I’m a woman in my mid-40s.

Over the years I have diligently exercised, eaten right and taken good care of my skin. I keep my hairstyle and clothing up-to-date.

I am constantly taken to be much younger than I am.

While some of my peers may be jealous of this “problem,” I find it extremely annoying. It’s especially bothersome in a business situation when someone my age or slightly older treats me as though he/she could be my parent.

I am not inclined to broadcast my age. Is there a professional way to deal with their condescending attitude?

LOOKS YOUNGER, BUT ISN’T DEAR LOOKS YOUNGER: Yes. First, take the chip off

your shoulder. Then recognize that your colleagues may not be condescending; they may be trying to be helpful. Accept the suggestions they offer without becoming defensive.

The more of themselves these “mentors” invest in you, the happier they’ll be about your successes.

HHHHH DEAR ABBY: My husband of almost a year and I have discovered a great technique to avoid screaming at each other in an argument. When we get aggravated with each other, one of us goes to the refrigerator, takes out one of our favorite candy bars (we keep a supply in there) and we split it. By the time we’re done eating the candy, we can calmly discuss our disagreement.

This helps because we literally take a break from the situation and share a mutual joy.

It works because we both love chocolate so much. We wanted to share this solution with your readers.

SWEET TOOTH IN ANGLETON, TEXAS DEAR SWEET TOOTH: Ingenious. The two of you have discovered yet another reason why chocolate is good for the heart. I hope as time goes by you’ll sustain a high level of compatibility because otherwise you’re going to weigh a ton. ing and challenging why you are being asked certain questions.

If you have received extragood service, please call back the same phone number and ask to speak to a supervisor, so you can compliment the service representative. This act of kindness helps that person in many ways.

A worker in Omaha, Neb. Thanks for the reminders to make the transaction go as smoothly as possible. At the end of your call, you also can ask to be put through to a supervisor to give a compliment.

Heloise HHHHH Dear Heloise: Yesterday, I, along with two family members, visited a buffet restaurant. We wondered, when it came time to tip, how much we should leave, since the only service by a waitperson was bringing us our drinks and clearing dishes off the table. The total bill was $50.10 before taxes. What would be the proper amount for a tip?

We usually tip 20 percent, but thought this was too much for self-service. What do you think?

Sharon H., The Villages, Fla.

Sharon, we took a poll here in our office. Most agree that $1$2 per person is a good tip for a buffet. What extra service did the wait staff provide? Tip more for extraordinary service.

Heloise HHHHH

Dear Heloise: I have a large wrist, and I prefer the stretchy watchbands.

I have difficulty finding a band that doesn’t eventually chew the inside of my wrist raw. If I stretch the band in the area of the inner wrist and wind yarn between the links, it not only stretches the band, but it also provides a soft cushion for my inner wrist. Gold yarn for a gold band, and silver yarn for a silver band.

Christine M., Rogers, Ark.

This is one way to solve the problem, but you also might want to look at men’s wristbands. I have one on my Spider-Man watch (it has a large face) and love it.
