NM Senate approves $5.4B budget
Vol. 120, No. 66 50¢ Daily / $1 Sunday
SANTA FE (AP) — State spending will be cut 2.7 percent next year under a $5.4 billion budget proposal the New Mexico Senate approved Wednesday. Sen. John Arthur Smith, a Deming Democrat and Finance Committee chairman, said the budget was balanced without worker layoffs or furloughs, and without a general tax increase. “It’s obviously a real challenge trying to put

Public schools account for the largest portion of the proposed budget, nearly $2.4 billion. Education will be cut about $61 mil-
lion, or 2.5 percent, next year. The reductions for schools and other agencies reflect pension fund changes that require state workers, teachers and other educators to pay more for their pensions while the gover nment reduces its contributions by a similar amount.

A mid-afternoon blaze that swept through at least 200 acres of land just south of Roswell Wednesday, may have been an act of arson, fire officials said. Emergency crews from across the county responded to the fire that threatened numerous homes but was contained before destroying any residences, officials said. “Just about every county department had a truck out here,” said Chief James Salas, of the Roswell Fire Department, adding that the blaze could have consumed up to 500 acres. Salas said it may have been intentionally set because a suspicious fire started in the same area on Tuesday. He said it destroyed at least one outbuilding and that several firefighters sustained minor injuries, however no serious

Roswell Police Chief Alfonso Solis announced the retur n of student resource officers to Goddard High School, Monday. “I have been studying the problem even before I got this job,” Solis said. He realized it was an issue when he worked as administrator at Chaves County Detention Center. “Some of these students will end up in the jail system.” Solis started talking to officials at Roswell Independent School District as CCDC administrator, and continued the discussions after taking his post as
police chief on Jan. 14. “I have been negotiating with the Roswell Independent School District, and Mr. Gottlieb notified me that it had been approved by the School Board.” He said that the placement of the first officer at Goddard is indirectly related to the theft of cell phones and several larcenies that have taken place in the high school. “It would be a lie if I said that it had nothing to do with it. We have had several incidents, but it’s not the idea that we want to arrest students.Their primary job will be safety, and I think the majority of parents will
Unions seek order Japan begins air drop on reactor to reinstate board SANTA FE (AP) — Members of labor unions in New Mexico turned to the state Supreme Court on Wednesday in a dispute with the governor over the Public Employee Labor Relations Board. Gov. Susana Martinez fired the board’s executive director, Pam Gentry, on Feb. 5, and then fired the three-member board March 1. The unions are asking the court to order Martinez to reinstate the board and not to interfere with the board’s hiring of an executive director. The board is responsi-

Mexico: US drones allowed over its territory
MEXICO CITY (AP) — U.S. Customs and Border Protection has been surreptitiously flying Predator drones into Mexico for two years, helping Mexican authorities spy on suspected drug traf fickers, The Associated Press has learned. The border security agency’s surveillance flights, approved by Mexico but never announced by either country, predate occasional flights into Mexico by the U.S. Air Force’s $38 million Global Hawk drone that began last month. Mexico’s National Security Council said in a statement Wednesday that unmanned aircraft have flown over Mexico on specific occasions, mainly along the border with the U.S., to gather information at the request of the Mexican government. The flights expand the U.S. role in the drug war, in which Americans already have been training Mexican soldiers and police as well as cooperating on other intelligence. “When these operations are carried out, they are always done with the authorization, oversight and supervision of national agencies, including the Mexican Air Force,” the council said. It said Mexico always defines the objectives, the information to be gathered and the specific tasks in
which the drones will be used and insisted the operations respected Mexican law, civil and human rights. The drones “have been particularly useful in achieving various objectives of combating crime and have significantly increased Mexican authorities’ capabilities and technological superiority in its fight against crime,” the council said. The drones, which cost more than $10 million each, are equipped with cameras that can identify an object the size of a milk carton, provide real-time images to ground control operators and can fly for more than 30 hours without having to refuel, according to the U.S. Congressional Research Service. The Global Hawk drone operations were first reported Wednesday by The New York T imes, which said they began last month under an agreement between President Barack Obama and Mexico’s leader, Felipe Calderon. AP’s reporting found that similar operations using a different kind of drone have been going on since 2009. The flights were quickly criticized by some Mexican politicians, who have often been sensitive to the involvement of U.S. agencies on Mexican soil. Sen. Ricardo Monreal of the leftist Labor Party said
having U.S. drones flying over Mexico is “unconstitutional and it violates national sovereignty.” He issued a statement accusing Calderon’s government of being “too submissive to the neighbor to the north” and said Mexico’s Senate was never infor med of either drone operation. Last week, the Mexican Senate voted to summon Mexico’s ambassador to the U.S., Arturo Sarukhan, to talk about allegations that U.S. agents allowed guns to be smuggled into Mexico as part of investigations into drug trafficking. More than 35,000 people have died since Calderon launched a stepped-up offensive against the cartels upon taking office in late 2006. U.S. Customs and Border Protection began flying Predator B drones into Mexico in early 2009, said an of ficial at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security with knowledge of the operations. The official agreed to discuss the program only if not quoted by name. The agency operates four Predator B’s along the border, the official said. They are similar to craft used by the U.S. military to make missile strikes on suspected terrorists in Pakistan, though the model used by the border agency is equipped with only advanced surveillance equipment, not weapons.
Vietnam vet’s plight brings aid JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER
The story of a disabled Vietnam veteran touched the hearts of the people of Roswell. The 64-year-old victim was the subject of a home invasion, Sunday, when someone forced his way into his home and pinned the man and his wheelchair against the wall. The local television stations that carried the story on Monday have been inundated with calls from people who want to help. Southeast New Mexico Vietnam Veterans of America is collecting funds for the disabled vet. “People are more aware
now, and the people of Roswell for the most part are good people who want to help,” said Greg Neal, vice president of SENM Vietnam Veterans. Neal reported that a neighbor has replaced the television that was stolen during the incident. “He has bought a new phone, and his car was fixed, so he’s back up to the circumstances that he was in before the invasion, such that they were.” According to Neal, the victim had been lost to the system until his story came out on the news. “Richard Montcrief (the local veteran service officer) will help him get his benefits, and we will take him to Albuquerque next
week to see the doctors. His condition is starting to deteriorate and he shouldn’t be driving.” said Neal. Members of the SENM Vietnam Veterans of America have discussed his case with Harvest Ministries and The Salvation Army and he qualifies for assistance. “We’ve got him into the system now,” Neal said. Anyone interested in helping should send donations to the SENM Vietnam Veterans of America No. 986, 2114 W. Second St., Roswell, NM 88201 and mark the check Johnny’s Fund.

Mexican army soldiers stand outside an Acapulco home, where gunmen killed an elderly woman and two of her grandchildren, Tuesday.
Unlike the high-altitude Global Hawk, the smaller $4 million Predator typically flies at around 18,000 feet. The Predator flights were first suggested by the U.S. border agency, but once they actually started, the missions were based on specific requests from the Mexican government and were done with a Mexican of ficial at the command center where the flight was controlled, the official said. “They only occur based on intelligence from the Mexicans,” the official said. The Predator flights continue and there have been dozens of them into Mexico, the of ficial said. Mexico responded to the U.S. proposal by requesting flights twice a week, but that was soon scaled back to once every other week, the official said. A former Customs and Border Protection employee close to the drone program said the flights were not that frequent. In 2009, he said, there were occasional “proof of concept” flights, which would last about 10 hours and would venture no more than 10 miles south of the border. The former employee insisted on speaking anonymously
because of the sensitivity of the subject. Juan Munoz-Torres, spokesman for Customs and Border Protection, acknowledged that in July 2009, the agency sent a drone into Mexico to help investigate the murder of CBP Agent Robert Rosas, who was shot and killed while on patrol near San Diego. “At the request of the U.S. government and concurrence of the government of Mexico, the (drone) was flown in Mexico airspace to support law enforcement officers assigned to search and apprehend agent Rosas’ murder suspects who fled into Mexico,” Munoz-Torres said. A 17-year -old boy later turned himself in to U.S. authorities, pleaded guilty to Rosas’ murder, and was sentenced last year to 40 years in federal prison. When asked about U.S. drones flying into Mexico, Department of Homeland Security spokesman Matt Chandler said Wednesday that his agency “actively partners with our neighbors to the north and south on a wide variety of law enforcement missions, and shares mutually beneficial information and security
resources when appropriate.” There is a 20-year history of U.S. government aircraft flying over Mexican territory in pursuit of drug activity. Starting in 1990, U.S. Customs pilots routinely flew small Cessna Citation 2 jets with a Mexican copilot over northern Mexico to hunt for drug-runners’ aircraft. The program, known as Operation Halcon, started after U.S. efforts to stop drug smugglers flying small airplanes into the U.S. territory prompted traf fickers to land just on the Mexican side of the border and then load up drugs for a drive north. In May 2001, for mer commissioner of U.S. Customs Service Charles Winwood told a U.S. Senate committee that Customs had two Cessnas stationed in Mexico, one in Hermosillo and the other in Monterrey. The U.S. had others stationed elsewhere in Latin America. Operation Halcon ended in part because U.S. officials could not get the Mexican gover nment to give U.S. personnel immunity in case of an accident in Mexico.
Animal Control Officer David Allen was assaulted in Denny’s Restaurant, 2200 N. Main St., Saturday, as he was investigating a dog-bite case, said Travis Holley, public information of ficer for the Roswell Police Department. “The suspect evidently had issues with Animal Control,” said Holley “He began to verbally harass the officer.” According to Roswell Ani-
mal Services supervisor Joseph Pacheco, Allen had gone into the restaurant to ask a couple of questions about a dangerous dog report when the incident occurred. “David talked to other people in the restaurant, and this guy who isn’t too fond of us began to give him a hard time,” said Pacheco. RPD was called in to assist Allen.
The suspect, Brian Jaramillo, 30, attempted to elude the police after they arrived. “The officer had to deploy his taser,” said Holley. Two of f-duty U.S. air marshals came to help the officer taking the call. “They assisted (Jaramillo) to the ground,” Holley said. Jamarillo was taken to the Chaves County Detention Center where he bonded out.

Senate approves $50M cap on NM film subsidies Roswell Daily Record
SANTA FE (AP) — Tax subsidies for film production in New Mexico will be capped at $50 million a year under a proposal approved Wednesday by the state Senate. By limiting film tax credits, the legislation would free up an estimated $23 million next year that lawmakers plan to use in the state budget for public education, health care and public safety programs. Lawmakers developed the cap as an alternative to a proposal by Republican Gov. Susana Martinez. The state provides a 25 percent refund on certain expenditures on film and television projects in New Mexico. Martinez wants to reduce the rebate to 15 percent. Industry officials say that will drive film projects to other states, hurting the New Mexico economy. The Senate measure passed on a 30-10 vote shortly after midnight. It goes back to the state House, which has approved a $45 million cap.
Before approving the bill, state senators revised the measure to spread out large rebates to film companies over two or three years. The House-passed version also included a similar provision. A film industry official is backing the Senate measure and wants the House to accept it. “I think it ended up where nobody is completely happy and that’s sometimes the best deal you’re going to get,” said Jon Hendry, business agent for a local film technicians’ union. He said the industry preferred a $60 million cap. The gover nor’s of fice stopped short of endorsing the legislation. “The governor is encouraged that the film subsidy would be trimmed by roughly $23 million, but believes that the transparency language can be improved to ensure that New Mexicans know precisely how their tax dollars are being spent,” said Scott Darnell, a spokesman for
Martinez. The Senate rejected a provision that would have lifted tax confidentiality protections for information detailing the expenditures submitted by film companies for rebates. The legislation, as approved, provides for posting some expenditure on a state website. During Senate debate, supporters said the legislation offers certainty to film producers that the cap won’t prevent them from receiving all the refunds they qualify for under the state incentive program. “The industry is going to continue to be able to at least survive somewhat here,” said Sen. Phil Griego, D-San Jose. Opponents said the cap sends the wrong message to the film industry. “This could be a job-killer bill. That’s the risk we’re taking here,” said Sen. Cisco McSorley, D-Albuquerque. The state House and Senate must approve the same version of legislation
before it goes to the governor. If the House doesn’t accept the Senate-passed bill, a House-Senate negotiating committee likely will be assigned to work out a compromise. On Tuesday, lawmakers sent to the gover nor a measure to tighten the film subsidy program and help

study whether the incentive benefits New Mexico’s economy. The measure doesn’t reduce the rebate rate, but establishes new restrictions for expenditures to qualify for a refund. Film production companies will be required to withhold New Mexico personal income tax from non-
resident actors as a condition to receive a refund for its payments to an actor. The Senate-passed measure won final approval when it cleared the House on a 68-1 vote. The film rebate cap bill is HB607/622.
NM, Arizona utilities weigh proposed mercury rule ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Utility of ficials in New Mexico and Arizona said Wednesday they are weighing the potential impacts a federal proposal to regulate mercury and other emissions might have on coal-fired power plants that supply electricity to millions of customers in the Southwest. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency unveiled the proposed mercury standard Wednesday. If approved, the agency said the standard would prevent more than 90 percent of the mercury in coal from being released into the air. Plants would have four years to comply. Northwestern New Mexico is home to two coalfired plants, including the San Juan Generating Station, which is the state’s single largest source of electricity. The operator, Public Service Company of New Mexico, is reviewing the federal proposal. The San Juan plant is also being targeted by federal regulators who want PNM to install new equipment for meeting haze reduction standards. The state offered its own plan this week, but the EPA is already in the process of considering a separate plan that could cost the utility more than $750 million. The utility has said the cost of complying with the
haze regulations would be passed on to customers. Any costs related to meeting the mercury standard would also likely result in higher electric bills. Jeremy Nichols of the environmental group WildEarth Guardians argued that more investment needs to be focused on clean energy and that ratepayers shouldn’t have to choose between cheap electricity and clean air. The coal-fired plants in northwestern New Mexico and norther n Arizona have long been targets of the environmental movement. In fact, it was a lawsuit that prompted the emission control upgrades at the San Juan plant. Brown said the plant has seen dramatic reductions in mercury emissions since completing the upgrade in 2009. Mercury emissions dropped from nearly 500 pounds per year in 2006 to 66 pounds in 2010. Changes are also on the horizon at the nearby Four Cor ners Power Plant, one of the largest coal-fired generating stations in the United States. Arizona Public Service Co. is in the process of getting regulatory approval to purchase three of the plant’s five units from a California utility so they can be shut down. The two remaining units have so-called bag
houses installed that catch the bulk of mercury emissions so minimal impact is expected if the mercury standard is approved, said APS spokesman Alan Bunnell. The utility is also planning to install more emissions equipment at its Cholla plant in northeastern Arizona. Officials with Salt River Project, which operates the 2,250-megawatt Navajo Generating Station near Lake Powell, are also weighing the potential impacts of the proposed mercury rule. The four coal-fired plants have a combined capacity to generate more than 7,000 megawatts of electricity. That power is used by customers from California to Texas. Critics of the EPA proposal for limiting mercury, arsenic and other emissions at the power plants have characterized the rules as inefficient and costly. But Nichols, along with other environmentalists and medical groups, praised the agency’s effort. “Is it worth spending millions just to make coal cleaner or should we invest in something cleaner and better? Those are the same questions that keep coming up,” Nichols said. “At some point there’s going to be a tipping point.”
Senate OKs higher taxes on businesses
SANTA FE (AP) — The state Senate approved a proposal Wednesday to raise taxes on businesses and trim jobless benefits to maintain the solvency of New Mexico’s unemployment compensation program. The bill provides for a one-year tax increase generating $128 million during 2012, according to the Workforce Solutions Department. If nothing is done by legislators and the governor, the agency projects the unemployment fund will run out of money by next March. Average tax payments by a business for each of its employees will increase to about $370 a year starting in January. That’s a jump of $155, or about 72 percent. Rates vary for businesses depending on their history of unemployment claims. The measure is nearing
final approval in the Legislature. It cleared the Senate on a 38-3 vote. The House previously approved the bill, but senators made slight changes. The Senate and House must adopt the same version of legislation before it goes to the governor. The bill would cut costs of the unemployment program by about $8 million by eliminating benefits for most unemployed individuals who are attending school full time. The state might save more than $60 million by no longer paying half of the costs for benefits beyond 99 weeks. If the federal government doesn’t cover the full cost of those extended benefits, they won’t be available in New Mexico. About $3 million will be saved by limiting the supplemental payments that go to jobless workers with dependents. If the fund becomes insolvent, New Mexico
would have to borrow from the federal government to pay unemployment benefits. Then, taxes on businesses would increase to the highest rate under state law — averaging $512 a year for each of its workers — to repay the federal government’s loan and replenish New Mexico’s unemployment fund. The unemployment fix bill is HB59.

Defining moments or gradual slide into abyss? There have been so many “defining moments” in our nation’s history – every election today, for example, is proclaimed such – the term is more cliché than truth. Our war for independence was obviously a defining moment – not solely for our country, but for the world, as it turned out. The Civil War – the election of Lincoln and the anti-slavery voice countering the growing power of the South. Two world wars. The civil rights movement. We send a man to the moon. Those were genuinely defining moments. In every case, we rose to the challenge and excelled. We shared in sacrifice. Made ends meet. As trite as it may seem, the election of Barack Obama was less pivotal, perhaps, than the economic tumult we are in. Discussions about our recovery, though technically accurate,

desire to spend money – particularly on high priced fiascoes. For decades to come we’ll be paying for a train that runs in a straight line from Belen to Santa Fe. A half-billion-dollar headline grabber that serves those who live along the roughly 90-mile stretch of track in a state that measures 121,600 square miles. The Rail Runner is a textbook example of a progressive plan: It sounds hip. It serves an insatiable desire to dictate our lifestyle. It will run mercilessly in the red into perpetuity. Perhaps there’s some twisted comfort in knowing that nearly every state in the nation has its Rail Runner. Not trains, per se. Public employee contracts that obligate us to salaries and benefits we simply can’t sustain. Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s being vilified by the mainstream media for trying to right that state’s financial ship, in part, by
changing the state employees’ collective bargaining rules. A fascist act, you say? Well, take a look at how effective Wisconsin’s public employees’ unions have been in recent years. These are the oppressed workers of Wisconsin? My generation —Baby Boomers — seems hell bent on greedily demanding water from an empty well. Pick a state and odds are the cupboards aren’t just bare, the shelves have been gnawed away. In fact, every state on our border is operating in the red – ranging from Utah’s roughly $100 million deficit to Texas’ massive $25 billion-plus shortage. A lot of that debt is generated by the feds. Unfunded mandates are the perfect tool for the men and women in Congress to give the appearance of doing something and passing along the bill to the state. But in the end, states are bat-
tling public employee unions, while our federal misery stems from our desire to give everyone everything and pray to God someone down the line has the ability to pay for it. We can’t pay for it. The current administration admits as much. During recent hearings reviewing the president’s budget, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner told the Senate Budget Committee that that budget’s spending is “unsustainable.” The budget, in essence, is a plan that will collapse our economy. That’s the type of courage, no doubt, that will lift us up to this challenge, yes? Of course it won’t. We are staring down the barrel of a defining moment. Unlike our ancestors, however, we can’t seem to get our finger off the trigger. © New Mexico News Services 2011

It will be days or weeks before the full extent is known of the damage to several Japanese nuclear reactors from the magnitude 9.0 quake. As of press time, fuel rods reportedly were melting in three reactors, apparently going into “meltdown.” CNN reported, “The Japan nuclear power plant crisis prompted German Chancellor Angela Merkel to rethink a plan to extend the lifespan of her country’s nuclear power plants, Merkel said Monday. ‘The events in Japan have shown us that even things that seem all but impossible scientifically can, in fact, happen,’ Merkel said.” Germany has 17 reactors, all scheduled to be shut down by 2020. Other nuclearpower countries, including France, Canada, South Korea and Russia, are reassessing their programs. Rep. Ed Markey, D-Mass., long a critic of nuclear power, used the crisis to call for a moratorium on new nuclear power construction in this country. Nuclear-related U.S. stocks, such as Exelon and Entergy, fell in Monday trading. All these events occur as President Barack Obama has been trying to jumpstart America’s nuclear reactor program as part of his clean energy policy. The Japanese tragedy “certainly helps those who are anti-nuclear energy,”Jack Spencer told us; he’s a nuclear -energy research fellow at the Heritage Foundation. However, he said, in Japan, “(R)eactor containment is working. I think the Japanese operators will work this to a conclusion. The reactor vessels were engineered for precisely this kind of situation. If they carry out the function they were meant to, the damage should be contained.” The oldest reactor at Fukushima I, the plant with the most danger of melting down, is 41 years old. “Existing reactors are very safe,”Spencer said. “But each generation of nuclear reactors is even safer.” He said that, unlike earlier models, today’s reactors include “passive safety mechanisms” that shut down automatically should problems arise. This is an example of the tough policy choices that sometimes must be made. On the one hand, the policies of the Obama administration demand “clean” energy with little or no greenhouse gases emitted. “Alternative” energies, such as wind, solar, geothermal and biomass, are a very small percentage of current production and unlikely to rise higher without expensive tax subsidies. Limiting the production of coal or clean natural-gas plants only drives energy production to other countries. And nuclear plants, as we’re reminded again, have their own problems. From our free-market perspective, we don’t see anything wrong with developing the newest designs of nuclear power, provided there are no subsidies, and proper safety precautions are taken. That debate is just beginning. Guest Editorial The Orange County Register DEAR DR. GOTT: I learned I had mitral-valve prolapse (MVP) about 40 years ago and have had it monitored ever since.

Was Huckabee’s week a stumble or a ploy? ANDREW DEMILLO ASSOCIATED PRESS
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Were Mike Huckabee’s recent gaffes enough to doom any presidential ambitions he still harbors? A calculated play for the Republican Party’s base? Somewhere in between? The former Arkansas governor, who won the Iowa caucuses in 2008 and is considering another White House run, had to walk back two widely reported comments he made in radio interviews last week during a national tour to promote his latest book. First he referred to President Barack Obama’s boyhood in Kenya. It was a mistake; a

spokesman said Huckabee should have said Indonesia. Then Huckabee took on Hollywood and out-of-wedlock pregnancy. “One of the things that is troubling,” he said, “is that people see a Natalie Portman or some other Hollywood starlet who boasts of, ‘Hey look, we’re having children. We’re not married, but we’re having these children, and they’re doing just fine.”’ Verbal miscues are nothing new for the Southern Baptist preacher who now hosts a radio show and a weekly Fox News Channel program. He’s the first to admit that his mouth sometimes gets him in trouble — and probably will again. “This was a verbal gaffe. It’s

Reports were the tiny medical clip might literally save millions of Americans from openheart surgery. Mitral regurgitation affects more than 8 million people in the United States. The clip is reported to be far safer than surgery and nearly as effective.

And by the way, Bill, I’m going to make some more before I die.” Taken alone, Huckabee’s off-the-cuff remarks last week aren’t likely to derail a presidential bid. In 2008, he was done in by a lack of money and a paltry organization. His advocacy of some tax increases in Arkansas and his record on clemency — after commuting the sentence of a man who later killed four Seattle-area police officers — may threaten a second presidential run.

The right way to water plants
Q. Your Yard and Garden post of Feb. 12 mentioned “proper irrigation practices” for indoor houseplants. Please explain this. Inquiring readers want to know! A. Thank you for asking. I often have too little room in my column to explain some topics, so I count on readers asking for more detail. I was hoping someone would catch that phrase. Proper irrigation is based on several factors. First, does the plant being grown have its water requirements and its need for drying between irrigations met? It also depends on the quality of the water being used and finally on the potting soil and time since last repotting. Some houseplants need to be kept consistently moist, while others benefit from drying between watering. All plant roots need oxygen in the pore spaces between soil particles, so it is good to match both potting soil and irrigation to the needs of the plants. Those plants that need drying require higher levels of oxygen around their roots and often benefit from a potting soil that drains rapidly. However, potting soils often shrink when they dry. This creates a problem for the next irrigation. Water will often run around the soil rather than moistening the soil. Gardeners are told to water until water runs out the drainage hole in the bottom of the pot, but in the case of soils that shrink; this will not provide adequate water. Slow watering may help moisten the soil, but a faster way is to water from the bottom of the pot. Place the pot in a dish pan with enough water to cover the base of the pot, but not enough to cause the pot and soil to float and turn over. Allow the water to soak up from the bottom. This violates the gardening rule that says not to let potted plants sit in water. This rule is to prevent water logging the root system and causing it to rot and to prevent accumulation of mineral salts in the soil. To accommodate these purposes, do not leave the pots in the dishpan of water for a prolonged time — more than a few hours. Once the soil has moistened, remove the potted plant from the water and allow surplus water to drain away. By moistening the soil well, these accumulated salts will dissolve and more easily be drained from the soil. Of course, this also removes fertilizer salts, so you will need to fertilize periodically to replace the lost nutrients. A potting soil that has been in use for several months to years may have significant accumulated minerals. The quality of the irrigation water determines when too much mineral salt has accumulated and may begin causing “salt burn” symptoms in the plant leaves. Irrigation by dissolving and draining away surplus salts will help reduce the problem and irrigating with rainwater will help even more. Eventually, it will become necessary to repot the plants to replace salt laden soil with fresh soil.

stituency.” Ed Rollins, who chaired Huckabee’s 2008 campaign, doubted either of his recent comments was calculated. But Rollins added: “His base, and the people who made him the front-runner, are not going to be antagonized by either one of these.” “It was a lear ning week,” Rollins added. “It certainly didn’t hurt him among his base, but I think he can’t have a bunch of weeks like that.” For all the criticism Huckabee gets when his mouth causes him problems, there may be short-ter m political upsides: He could further endear himself to his conservative followers, some of whom believe false Internet rumors that Obama was raised in his father’s Kenyan homeland and who champion marriage and traditional family structures. There could be financial benefits, too: His new book, “A Simple Government,” is expected to appear on The New York Times’ best-seller list this weekend. Huckabee at times contradicts himself. He has said that questioning Obama’s citizenship distracts from the serious policy disagreements he has with the Democratic president. But he also has been quick to draw a distinction between his own upbringing and Obama’s. “I don’t remember any madrassas growing up in Hope, Ark.,” he said in a radio interview this week, referring to radical Islamic schools. Huckabee made his comment about Portman, winner of this year’s best actress Oscar for her role in “Black Swan,” in response to a question from conservative radio host Michael Medved about the Academy Awards ceremony and Portman’s pregnancy. Huckabee launched into a critique of celebrities who he says don’t give society a realistic portrayal of single mothers. Days later, Huckabee said his comments were never meant as an attack on Portman but as a commentary on society as a whole, a riff that conservative Christians could eat up. “A lot of things come out of my mouth that I go, ‘Uh-oh,’ this is going to get me

in trouble,” Huckabee told Medved in a follow-up interview Tuesday. “This, however, no, I never imagined.” Could Huckabee’s Portman comment and writings on single parents — the first chapter of his book is titled “The Most Important Form of Government is a Father, a Mother and Children” — be viewed as a subtle jab at potential rival Sarah Palin, whose daughter had a child while single? Or is that question too conspiratorial? Remember, this is the same person who while competing for the support of conservative Iowa Republicans in 2008 released a campaign ad wishing voters a Merry Christmas and reminding them that the holiday was about Christ’s birth — with a cross-like image created by a white bookcase in the background. Many viewed it as a subliminal message, but Huckabee said it was a coincidence. This is also the candidate who said he had decided against airing a negative television ad on rival Mitt Romney — and then promptly showed a roomful of reporters the ad. Stories of such gimmicks abound in his home state: He moved into a triplewide trailer while the governor’s mansion was being renovated in 2001, and he used actor Chuck Norris of “Walker, Texas Ranger“ for his first presidential campaign ad. And then there are the times he put his foot in his mouth. He angered state Democrats and others in 2000 by telling Don Imus’ national radio audience that Arkansas was a “banana republic” and that Democrats would attempt to steal the presidential election from Republican George W. Bush. In another interview with Imus six years later, Huckabee jokingly attributed his dramatic weight loss to time spent in a concentration camp. Calculated or not, his latest missteps are being ridiculed on the Internet and he’s becoming the butt of comedians’ jokes. It’s a position Huckabee has been in before, and one he’s overcome. Can he do it again? Andrew DeMillo has covered Huckabee and Arkansas government and politics since 2005.

knocked out power and ruined backup generators needed for their cooling systems, adding a major nuclear crisis for Japan as it dealt with twin natural disasters that killed more than 10,000 people and left hundreds of thousands homeless. A Japanese military CH47 Chinook helicopter began dumping seawater on the damaged reactor of Unit 3 at the Fukushima complex at 9:48 a.m., said defense ministry spokeswoman Kazumi Toyama. The aircraft dumped at least four loads on the reactor, though much of the water appeared to be dispersed in the wind. At least a dozen more loads were planned in the 40 minutes that each crew can operate before switching, to limit radiation exposure, the ministry said. The dumping was intended both to help cool the reactor and to replenish water in a pool holding spent fuel rods, Toyama said. The plant’s owner, Tokyo Electric Power Co., said earlier that the pool was nearly empty, which might cause the rods to overheat. The comments from U.S. of ficials indicated there were similar problems at another unit of the Dai-ichi complex. U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission Chair man Gregory Jaczko said at a congressional hearing in Washington that all the water was gone from a separate spent fuel pool at the plant’s Unit 4.

Board and that it was done as part of a review of boards, commissions and appointments. But the unions argue that allowing the governor to remove the board would give her the ability to circumvent the state Public Employee Bargaining Act by removing members who make findings against her. The law that guarantees bargaining rights for government employees is not operating because there is no board to enforce it, said Shane Youtz, an Albuworries about that unit, but that it was impossible to be sure of its status. Emergency workers were forced to retreat from the plant Wednesday when radiation levels soared, losing precious time. They resumed work after radiation levels dropped, but much of the monitoring equipment in the plant is inoperable, complicating efforts to assess the situation. The storage pools need a constant source of cooling water. Even when removed from reactors, the rods retain radioactivity and must be cooled for months, possibly longer, to prevent them from posing a threat of meltdown. Japanese officials raised hopes of easing the crisis earlier today, saying that they may be close to bringing power back to the plant and restoring the reactors’ cooling systems. The new power line would revive electric-powered pumps, allowing the company to control the rising temperatures and pressure that have led to at least partial meltdowns in three reactors. The company is also trying to repair its existing disabled power line. Nearly a week after the disaster, police said more than 452,000 were staying in schools and other shelters, as supplies of fuel, medicine and other necessities ran short. Both victims and aid workers appealed for more help. More than 4,300 people are officially listed as dead, but officials believe the toll will climb to well over 10,000. The threat of nuclear disaster only added to Japanese misery and frustration.
GENERAL
Taxation and Revenue Department charge fees to cities and counties for the distribution of certain gross receipts tax revenues. The fees will help pay for department operations, saving $4 million from the state’s main budget account. The Senate added money for several programs, including $1 million for developmentally disabled
services and $1 million for early childhood education. The budget cleared the Senate on a 24-17 vote, sending it back to the House for consideration of the Senate changes. Several senators objected that the Legislature was cutting spending, including pension changes that reduce the take-home pay of public employees, rather than looking at tax increas-
dards for what constitutes each of the A-to-F grades. An advisory group of school district superintendents will have a voice in developing those guidelines. “I think this is an experiment that basically has no legislative parameters on it,” said Sen. Cisco McSorley, D-Albuquerque. He war ned that the grading system will be a “catastrophe for poor school districts” and said it’s an “unfunded mandate” because the Legislature hasn’t ear marked money to pay for programs
to help struggling schools. The legislation originally called for financial rewards to high-performing schools and their faculty. However, those provisions were removed at the recommendation of Asbill, the bill’s sponsor, to ease objections from those worried that the incentives would siphon off money from schools with low grades.

A Cabinet spokesman, Noriyuki Shikata, said the government had no plans to expand the evacuation plan. But the U.S. Embassy issued an advisory urging all Americans living within 50 miles of the plant to leave the area or at least remain indoors. Elevated levels of radiation were detected well outside the 20-mile emergency area around the plants. In Ibaraki prefecture, just south of Fukushima, officials said radiation levels were about 300 times normal levels by late Wednesday morning. It would take three years of constant exposure to these higher levels to raise a person’s risk of cancer. A little radiation has also been detected in Tokyo, triggering panic buying.

But proponents of the legislation said the current system is bewildering to parents and others because it assigns vague labels, such as “corrective action” or “restructuring,” to schools missing the performance goals. Sen. Cynthia Nava, a Las Cruces Democrat and a school superintendent in southern New Mexico, said low-per for ming schools will be treated more fairly under the A-to-F grading system rather than the current ratings in which there are only two desig-
nations — meeting “adequate yearly progress” targets or missing them. “My opinion is that we need to get off the dime and move. I know that we already grade schools and the only grades we have are A and F,” said Nava. “For me it’s not about helping the governor or pushing the gover nor’s agenda,” said Nava. “For me it’s about helping students.” The school grading bills are SB427 and HB355.
RHS Student Resource Officer Charlie Corn notified immigration officials of her illegal status. She was transported to the Chaves County Detention Center and later deported to Mexico. “The controversy was before my time,” said Solis. As early as February 2009, RISD superintendent Michael Gottlieb said that he wouldn't mind having the resource offi-
cers back on school grounds. Gottlieb told the Daily Record then, “They provide a connection to the community and add a lot of support.” Solis would agree. He believes that reintroducing the program will enhance community relations and produce a greater connectedness between the youth of Roswell and the police.
one is designated by public employers and the third is recommended by the other two. Youtz contends the governor has no discretionary authority to name members other than those recommended. “The law says the governor shall appoint a person recommended by labor. From a legal perspective, that means ... she must appoint — not refuse to appoint,” Youtz said. Labor’s designee is Albuquerque attor ney
John Boyd, whose term ends July 1. The term of the public employers representative, Martin Dominguez, expires June 30, 2012. The term of the third member, Duff Westbrook, expired last June 30 but he continued serving until the firings. The unions filing the petition said they represent at least 31,000 public workers in New Mexico. Unions sent a letter to Martinez earlier this month demanding she reinstate the board.
“It’s a once in a lifetime chance for her to be able to experience all of that,” Isabel Clements, Gabrielle’s mother said. “I think it’s something that we can do all as a family.” Gabrielle is battling Pfeiffer syndrome, a cranial facial syndrome that is “a genetic disorder characterized by the premature fusion of certain skull bones,” according to ghr.nlm.nih.gov, part of the National Library of Medicine’s web site for consumer information. According to her parents, Gabrielle has endured several surgeries for her condition. The Clements are grateful for the opportunity to spend
some time away from the doctor’s office next week with Gabby and her sisters, Vanessa, 10, and Victoria, 12. The Make-A-Wish Foundation grants thousands of wishes to 2- to 18-year -old kids every year, who suffer from lifethreatening conditions. Applicants who qualify for the program are interviewed by an area volunteer, who helps coordinate the efforts to make a child’s wish come true.

First
ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your playfulness merges with your imagination. How can anyone hold you back? Especially if you were bor n Irish. An ability to synthesize what others say helps sort out mixed or confusing communication. Curb your temper. Tonight: It is obvious, isn't it? Paint the city green. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You are trying to keep the lid on a personal issue. The problem is, a friend might be working against you, not intentionally, and the lid will blow. Sort through what needs to be said and what is appropriate. Tonight: Be Irish at home. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You have a way or style about you that attracts many people, and most certainly at this moment. If you can get out of work early, by all means, do. You might want to paint the town green with likeminded Irish people (even if you are Irish for only one day!). Tonight: Having fun and not going far. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your sensitivity is needed when dealing with a child or loved one. People don't realize how tuned in you are, which is why you are moody more times than not. Don't commit to anything before checking out the costs. OK? Tonight: Treat yourself. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Someone around you could be vested in maintaining a haze around him- or herself. Wait until you have a more realitybound type of perspective. Note a tendency to be sarcastic and sometimes critical. Think before saying anything. Tonight: Don't kid yourself about a relationship. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Know when to step back and allow others to express their thoughts and ideas. Could you be ever so slightly overwhelmed? Honor those feelings and do step back. You will know when enough is enough. Tonight: If Irish, celebrate at home. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your ability to adjust and make the best of dif ficult situations emerges. A certain element
JACQUELINE BIGAR YOUR HOROSCOPE of pie-in-the-sky thinking surrounds you and those you care about. Don't worry about it. You simply need to be aware of a distortion. Tonight: Where people are wearing green! SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Whether you like it or not, you are in the limelight. Your ability to understand others and get to the bottom on an issue emerges. Understand how much you will have to give in order to complete a project or task your way. Tonight: Celebrating, whether you are Irish or not. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22Dec. 21) Reach out for those at a distance. You also might need to discuss an important matter with an expert or someone who often plays the role of devil's advocate. Either way, you solidify your thinking. Start thinking "vacation." Tonight: Follow the music. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) Relate to others directly, knowing full well what the end results could be. Understanding evolves to a new level as a result. Know that partners don't need to agree with each other, but you do need to respect each other's views. Tonight: Dinner for two. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18) Defer to others. Though you might not be sure they have the right path, you need to find out. Remain supportive rather than give them your opinion. A misunderstanding can easily be straightened out. Know when to pull back. Tonight: Relax. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might be left holding the bag today as others seem to stomp out of work, not quite completing this or that. Remain optimistic as you talk through a logistics problem. A close associate or friend emerges with a solution. Tonight: Join a coworker.

ATLANTA (AP) — U.S. life expectancy has hit another all-time high, rising above 78 years. The estimate of 78 years and 2 months is for a baby born in 2009, and comes from a preliminary report released Wednesday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. About 2.4 million people died in the United States in 2009 — roughly 36,000 fewer deaths than the year before. Deaths were down for a range of causes, from heart disease to homicide, so experts don’t believe there’s one simple explanation for the increase in life expectancy. Better medical treatment, vaccination campaigns and public health measures against smoking are believed to be having an impact. U.S. life expectancy has been generally increasing since at least the 1940s, though some years it held steady and a few times it temporarily dipped. Previously, the CDC said a onemonth dip occurred in 2008 to 77 years and 11 months. But in Wednesday’s report, the agency corrected that to 78 years, attributing the glitch to a computer programming error. Belatedly, “we realized there’s something wrong here” in the 2008 estimate, said Ken Kochanek, a CDC statistician. The 2009 report by the CDC’s

National Center for Health Statistics is based on nearly all the death certificates for that year. A final report is due later this year. More good news from the new report: The infant mortality rate hit a record low of 6.42 deaths per 1,000 live births, a drop of nearly 3 percent from 2008. But not everyone benefitted. While life expectancy for whites rose, it held steady for blacks. The infant mortality rate for black babies did not improve either. As a result, the racial gap got a little wider. Whites already live about four years longer than blacks, and the margin grew by about two months. The gap between the sexes also persisted. Overall male life expectancy is roughly 75 1/2 , for females it’s about 80 1/2.
Other highlights from the 2009 report include: — Death rates declined slightly for 10 of the 15 leading causes of death, including heart disease, cancer, stroke, accidents, Alzheimer’s disease, homicide and influenza and pneumonia. —Suicide passed blood infections to become the 10th leading cause of death. Suicide rates did not change significantly, but the blood infection death rate dropped nearly 2 percent. That puts suicide back in the top 10 causes of deaths for the first time since 1999, Kochanek said. —The influenza/pneumonia death rate dropped nearly 5 percent, even though 2009 was the year that the swine flu pandemic hit. Flu deaths rose by about 1,000 in 2009 from the year before, but pneumonia deaths dropped by nearly 4,000. Pneumonia is a flu complication most often seen in the elderly, and is a main reason why the overwhelming majority of flu-related deaths most years occur in the elderly. But while swine flu hit young adults and kids unusually hard, it caused relatively mild illness for people 55 and older. “The irony is there were less deaths because the elderly were spared in this pandemic,” said Dr. Keith Klugman, a professor of global health at Atlanta’s Emory University.

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS OCHOCINCO TO TRY OUT FUTBOL
KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Chad Ochocinco will try to play a different kind of football during the NFL lockout. Never short on publicityideas, the grabbing Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver is set for a fourday tryout with Sporting Kansas City of Major League Soccer starting Tuesday. The club said Wednesday that after the tryout, it would determine whether to extend the trial period. “We’re always searching for players who can help our team and bringing in new talent,” Sporting Kansas City manager Peter Vermes said. “We know that Chad is an exceptional athlete and that he loves the sport of soccer, and he did play a lot when he was younger. We’re excited to see how his skills will translate once he arrives next week and begins training with our team.” Ochocinco started playing soccer at age 4 but chose to focus on football in high school. “Due to the NFL lockout, I’m excited to be able to follow my childhood dream of playing for a Major League Soccer team,” Ochocinco said. The reality TV star is friends with such big names in soccer as Thierry Henry, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ronaldinho.

As trainer Bob Thompson spots for him, Philadelphia Eagles offensive lineman Todd Herremans works out at a gym Wednesday, in Cherry Hill, N.J. Right about now, many NFL players normally would be preparing for offseason workouts at their teams' facilities. Nothing more complicated than lifting weights, running, stretching, massages. This hardly is a normal year, though, and with the league having locked out the players, those practice venues are off-limits.

And while March isn’t the most critical time for pro football — it is, after all, nearly six months before kick-off of opening weekend — as the labor stoppage continues, the need for teammates to gather together will grow. Browns quarterback Jake Delhomme met former Cleveland teammates punter Dave Zastudil and safety Nick Sorensen at a local recreation center on Tuesday. The trio spotted for each other while lifting

weights and spent time in between sets discussing family matters and the labor situation as some of the gym’s members took note of the celebrity visitors. Wide receiver Greg Camarillo of the Vikings got an LA Fitness membership in Miami. “I’ve been trying to fit in with the regular gym-goers, which is interesting because I’m trying to work out to create physical strength and stamina while other guys are trying to work out to look good in the mirror,” he said. “There are guys in there for two or three hours without a single drop of sweat on them. I’m curious what they’re up to, but it works.” For NFL veterans, meanwhile, getting fit is part of the, uh, job. “Every player under-
Johnson scores 29 points, leads UTSA to NCAA win
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — Melvin Johnson III insists he’s in a deep shooting slump. Oh, really? The smooth guard with “SWISH” scrawled on the side of each orange shoe scored a career-high 29 points Wednesday night, putting on the most scintillating show so far in the NCAA tournament while leading Texas-San Antonio to a 70-61 victory over Alabama State in the “First Four” round. “It seems like the last four or five games, I can’t make a shot,” Johnson said. “I have ‘SWISH’ on the side of my shoes because I used to make shots. I might have to black it out for now.” No need to edit the footwear, not after that NCAA tournament debut. The Roadrunners (20-13) and their smooth guard head to Cleveland for a game Friday against top-seeded Ohio State, which won’t allow all those open shots. “No. 31, if he’s on like he was tonight, it should be a pretty good game,” Alabama State’s Jeff Middlebrooks said. Against Alabama State (17-18), Johnson took
advantage of every opening. The sophomore had a career high in the first half alone, when he outscored the star-struck Hornets 25-21. Middlebrooks and Tramayne Moorer had 12 points apiece for Alabama State, which had the worst record in the expanded 68-team tournament. “We let a guy get 25 points in the first half,” Moorer said. “He outscored us!” The Roadrunners came to Dayton with a stated goal: San Antonio had never won an NCAA tournament game of any sort. Now, they’ve got reason to raise a banner in their 4,080-seat UTSA Convocation Center. “Our first win in an NCAA tournament game in any sport — we’re very proud to be in this moment,” coach Brooks Thompson said. Might as well let Johnson pick the spot to place the banner. The 6-foot-5 guard did everything Wednesday. He scored off drives to the hoop and made fallaway jumpers from every spot, hardly missing in the decisive first half. Johnson was 8 of 14 from

the field, making one less field goal than all the Hornets combined. “Johnson got good look after good look, and he also made some tough shots,” Hornets coach Lewis Jackson said. “He got on a roll and it trickled down to everybody else.” Johnson also got to shoot four free throws after a pair of technicals on the Hornets. He made ’em all, of course. He even connected while sitting on the court after getting fouled in the second half. He playfully flipped the ball at the basket, and it went in. He took only four shots in the second half. UTSA’s front line took control during a 17-4 opening run that put the scent of a blowout in University of Dayton Arena. The Roadrunners got 14 of the first 18 rebounds, repeatedly giving themselves second chances after a miss. Johnson turned those extra chances into his showtime. He made a 3 that built the lead to 3113. Next time down the court, he was feeling so comfortable that he quickly got off a long 3 that came up short of the rim for one of his few misses.

Kyle McClellan has been impressive in three spring starts and is likely to take Wainwright’s spot. “McClellan, he has the pitches to do it and he’s got the swagger to do it, too,” Wainwright said. “You’ve got to have both.” Wainwright strained the elbow last fall and missed his final start, and said that may have been a warning signal. He speculated that may have blown out the elbow last fall if the Cardinals made the postseason and he had kept pitching. “It probably would have popped,” Wainwright said. “And I would have been fine with that.” Four members of the rotation have undergone elbow reconstruction. The exception is Kyle Lohse, who had forearm surgery last May.

Buc stops here: Hurdle aims at Pirates’ turnaround
BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) — Clint Hurdle shrugged his shoulders and kept talking. The Pittsburgh Pirates haven’t posted a winning record since Barry Bonds carried them in 1992, and their enthusiastic new manager doesn’t pretend to have all the answers for ending the longest stretch of futility in North American sports. Eighteen consecutive losing seasons, 299 losses over the past three years, a major league-low 57 wins in 2010. A major hurdle, indeed. But this Hurdle is nothing if not optimistic. That’s his trademark, and he says brighter days are ahead. Even if he can’t promise when.

SCOREBOARD
“Every man that’s come in here before me for the last 18 years, I have no doubt in my mind was coming with great intentions, trying to make a difference,” said Hurdle, the former Colorado skipper who left a comfortable job as hitting coach with the AL champion Texas Rangers to take over the Pirates. “Sometimes it’s timing. A lot of times it is talent. ... Right now, I think we’ve got a good combination of a lot of things coming together at the right time,” the 53-year-old manager said. The Pirates have averaged 97 losses per season since 2005, yet a strong nucleus of young talent that includes center fielder Andrew McCutchen, second baseman Neil Walker and third baseman Pedro Alvarez is a basis for real hope. “If I was a guy just looking for a check, all I’d do is mess this thing up,” said Hurdle, who guided the Rockies to their only World Series appearance in 2007. “They needed somebody to come in and be committed, roll their sleeves up, get some dirt in their spikes and put in a full day’s effort. Pittsburgh’s a blue-collar town, and it needs somebody with a blue-collar mentality. At least I know I have that. I’m not afraid to work, and I’m not afraid of a challenge.” And what a challenge it is — the Pirates were last in the NL in hitting, pitching and defense last season. Not since Jim Leyland guided Pittsburgh within one out of the 1992 World Series have the Pirates been a major factor in their own city. Since then, John Russell, Jim Tracy, Lloyd McClendon and Gene Lamont have occupied the dugout without success. Sure, PNC Park remains one of the prettiest places to play in the majors, far more cozy than old Three Rivers Stadium. Yet right down the road is Heinz Field, where the Steelers seem to make a Super Bowl charge every year. Even the Pitt Panthers are creating more interest, with local hoops fans thinking their team is poised for a Final

Four run. Put it this way: The biggest postseason noise the Pirates have made in nearly two decades came last fall when a thought-tobe-lost film of their Game 7 win over the New York Yankees in the 1960 World Series was found in Bing Crosby’s old wine cellar. So it made sense that when the entire Pirates roster assembled for the first fullsquad of spring training, Hurdle didn’t start out by talking about bats, balls and gloves. He instead spoke about trust, accountability and the type of dedication it would take to change a culture of losing. The players liked what they heard. “His attitude and the passion for the game that he’s brought to this clubhouse has definitely uplifted it. There’s no doubt about that,” said Walker, who hit .296 in 110 games last season. “His ability to instill confidence in his players, especially as a younger team, it’s something that’s very important for this organization. I think him doing that is going to affect us — not down the road, but right now and moving forward.” Labeled a phenom when he was only 20, Hurdle played parts of 10 seasons with the Kansas City Royals, Cincinnati Reds, New York Mets and St. Louis Cardinals before retiring in 1987, never having reached that top billing. He managed six years in the Mets’ minor league system before getting his first managerial shot in the big leagues with Colorado in 2002. The job he did to help transform a young Rockies team into a contender was one of the reasons Pittsburgh was drawn to him. Still, the Pirates’ brain trust had to sell themselves to Hurdle as much as he had to convince owner Bob Nutting, team president Frank Coonelly and general manager Neal Huntington that he was right for Pittsburgh. After all, he liked his job in Texas. And, the Rangers were coming off a World Series appearance. “I told them my DNA challenges me every day. I’m looking for challenges at 53, I’m not looking for comfort. Frank’s wired that way. Bob’s wired that way, I know Neal is wired that way,” Hurdle said. “Realistically, I don’t need the money. The job I had last year, 15 minutes after the game I’m out the door and with my family down the road. And, it’s a good team. Well, that was an honor to work there. ... It’s the same honor here. They’re just asking a different role out of me.” The 24-year-old McCutchen is embracing Hurdle, too. He hit .286 with 16 homers, 56 RBIs and 33 stolen bases as a leadoff man last season, but the new manager is searching for ways to create more offense. One possibility is dropping McCutchen in the third spot in the batting order. The budding star said Hurdle has a commanding presence in the clubhouse and is easy to talk to. Just as importantly, McCutchen said, the manager listens. Just as importantly, McCutchen said, the manager listens. “He’s definitely going to keep you on your toes, he’s going to push you, and at the same time he’s going let you know that he’s behind you in every step you take,” McCutchen said. “He doesn’t big league you in any way. He’s able to pinpoint certain things that we’re going through. ... He’s able to just say, ‘I’ve been there before, I know how you feel.’ ... He’s an all-around great guy. We have a lot of fun, but at the same time we know when to get serious with him.” Walker, like McCutchen, believes despite losing 105 games last season that the Pirates are headed in the right direction. “There’s no doubt. A lot of us younger guys had a half or close to a full season last year in the big leagues and kind of got our feet wet,” the 25-year-old second baseman said.

Bills start pay cuts during NFL labor dispute
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — All Buffalo Bills employees will take a cut in pay during the NFL labor dispute, though no layoffs are planned. Referring to them as “prudent preparations for the possibility of a work stoppage,” chief operating officer Russ Brandon said Wednesday the Bills have established a program of cuts that “focuses on shared sacrifice.” The comments were made in a statement released by the team to The Associated Press. “We have, for some time, been very upfront and transparent with our staff so that they too could make prudent preparations,” Brandon said. “Every employee in the organization will be affected.” The percentage of the cut will be based on salary, with the highest-paid employees receiving a larger cut in pay. “We plan no layoffs as a result of the situation at this time,” Brandon said. “Our hope is that our advanced planning will allow us to avoid them in the future as well.” The Buffalo News first reported the team’s pay cuts on Wednesday. The announcement of pay cuts comes two days after the team sent a letter to its season-ticket holders in which Brandon said

Brandon wrote that he shared fans’ disappointment regarding the work stoppage, which began Friday after the NFL Players Association decertified. The NFL followed by locking out its players. The Bills are coming off a 4-12 finish and will have the No. 3 pick in the draft next month. NFL teams have varied in establishing employee plans during the work stoppage. Some teams have announced pay cuts, while others are having staff take unpaid furloughs. Indianapolis Colts owner Jim Isray said this week that his employees will not be affected.
NFL: Suspensions more likely for illegal hits
The NFL will be more aggressive in suspending players next season for illegal hits, and also could make changes to instant replay and kickoffs. Ray Anderson, the league’s chief disciplinarian, said Wednesday that repeat offenders or players committing flagrant illegal hits will have a much greater chance of being suspended during the 2011 season. No suspensions were handed down in 2010 even after the NFL’s crackdown on such hits, in part because “we were operating under the principle unless you have given sufficent advance notice of what the results could be, you need to be more lenient,” Anderson said. “Frankly, now that the notice has been given, players and coaches and clubs are very aware of what the emphasis is and we won’t have that hesitation,” Anderson said. “Everyone will be very clearly on notice now that a suspension is very viable for us and we will exercise it ... when it comes to illegal hits to the head and neck area and to defenseless players.” The NFL increased the amount on its fines for such hits last year after a series of fouls on one October weekend. Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker James Harrison was fined $75,000 for one such tackle, while Atlanta Falcons cornerback Dunta Robinson and New England Patriots safety Brandon Meriweather were docked $50,000 for hits to defenseless opponents that weekend. Many more fines were implemented throughout the remainder of last season but no player was suspended, even though suspensions were considered, Anderson said. “We want to be much more clear on what can be a suspendable incident,” Anderson said. “The emphasis is on head and neck hits and what a defenseless player is. And we will work hard that people understand what is a repeat offender and what is a flagrant foul.” The league looks at two years worth of plays to determined repeat offenders. Rules defining a defenseless player will be expanded and now will include eight categories: —A quarterback in the act of throwing; —A receiver trying to catch a pass; —A runner already in the grasp of tacklers and having his forward progress stopped; —A player fielding a punt or a kickoff; —A kicker or punter during the kick; —A quarterback at any time after change of possession; —A receever who receives a blind-side block; —A player already on the ground. The league’s competition committee plans to propose at next week’s owners meetings moving the kickoff up to the 35yard line and bringing a touchback out to the 25. It also will propose making all scoring plays reviewable by the replay official.

children and more than 100 great- and great-greatgrandchildren. She was a wonder ful sister, wife, mother and grandmother. Elizabeth was a woman of great faith, which she passed on to all her family. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her and whose lives she touched. Friends and family will be received at the home of her granddaughter, Stephanie Hernandez, 1503 S. Kentucky Ave., in Roswell, NM 88203. Fallen Leaves Leaves that blow from autumn trees Prepare the way for winter freeze to chart the path of moving time. A cycle plays out nature’s rhyme. Though sometimes leaves do fall in spring The sounds an unfamiliar ring new from buds the leaves they form they grow amidst the sun so warm. So why do some release their bounds And tumble gently towards the grounds to disconnect from what they know And sacrifice the chance to grow? Only god can know these things And why he calls for leaves in spring Perhaps leaves choose to ride the wind To find some place to start again. We Love You

DEAR ABBY: I am a 17-year-old senior in high school. My boyfriend, “Kenny,” is 18 and goes to college five hours away. I’d like to visit him over the weekend sometime, but I need my parents’ permission. Mom is OK with it, as long as I take the train (she doesn’t want me driving that distance alone) and I pay for it. Dad is old-fashioned. He dislikes the fact that Kenny and I would be unsupervised in his dorm for a whole weekend, even though Kenny has a roommate. We’ve been together for a long time and have been unsupervised before, but Dad’s still uneasy. He treats me like I’m younger than my age. I’m almost 18 and have traveled alone by plane. I’m respectful to my parents and feel I deserve Dad’s trust. Kenny and I love each other, but having a long-distance relationship is difficult since we hardly get to see each other. Dad likes and approves of Kenny, but thinks it’s “unnecessary” for me to visit him since we call, Skype and text each other often. How can I get my father to see my point of view?

Nate Dogg, whose hooks boosted rap hits, dies
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Singer Nate Dogg, whose near monotone crooning anchored some of rap’s most seminal songs and helped define the sound of West coast hip-hop, has died at age 41. Nate Dogg, whose real name was Nathaniel D. Hale, died Tuesday of complications from multiple strokes, said Attorney Mark Geragos. Nate Dogg wasn’t a rapper, but he was an integral figure in the genre: His deep voice wasn’t particularly melodic, but its tone — at times menacing, at times playful, yet always charming — provided just the right touch on hits including Warren G’s “Regulate,” 50 Cent’s “21 Questions,” Dr. Dre’s “The Next Episode” and countless others. While Nate Dogg provided hooks for rappers from coast to coast, the Long Beach, Calif., native is best known for his contributions to the West Coast soundtrack provided by the likes of Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Tha Dogg Pound and more. Nate Dogg was even part of a “supergroup” featuring Snoop Dogg and Warren G, called 213. Nate Dogg, who had suffered at least two strokes since 2008, also put out his own solo projects but was best known for his collaborations with others. Last year, Warren G said Nate Dogg was in therapy but needed
help. “Everybody just gotta keep him in their prayers, ’cause he had two strokes and that’s real dangerous. And a lot of people don’t come back from that,” he said in an interview to HipHollywood. “’Cause the game needs him, I need him.” After word of his death spread, tributes poured in on Twitter. “We lost a true legend n hip hop n rnb. One of my best friends n a brother to me since 1986 when I was a sophomore at poly high where we met,” Snoop Dogg tweeted Tuesday night. Like Snoop Dogg, Nate Dogg got his start on Death Row when he was signed to the groundbreaking label by Dr. Dre. Nate Dogg got his start singing in the local church choir. He dropped out of high school to join the Marines but after three years was dishonorably discharged. He briefly got involved with the drug trade before forming a musical group with Snoop and Warren G. It was Warren G who was credited with giving their music to Dr. Dre. Nate Dogg made his debut on Dr. Dre’s classic album “The Chronic,” and immediately distinguished himself with a trademarked sound: a low, steady croon that came across as intimidating as the rap verses. His vocals made him one of the
most sought after collaborators for rap songs. Fifty Cent, who tapped Nate Dogg for his 2003 love song “21 Questions,” tweeted Tuesday: “I wrote the chorus to 21 questions I needed nate to sing it for me. He had a way of making everything feel hard.” Nate Dogg could be heard on songs ranging from Ludacris’ “Area Codes” to Tupac Shakur’s “All About U” to Eminem’s “Shake That.” Even as times changed, and rappers came and went, he didn’t fall out of fashion. He faced several legal problems. In 1996, he was acquitted of an armed robbery charge; a jury deadlocked on another and he was not retried. In 2000, Nate Dogg was accused of trying to kidnap an ex-girlfriend, but those charges were dismissed. He pleaded no contest to gun possession and was sentenced to probation. In January of 2008, he suffered a debilitating stroke but a few months later was arrested for stalking and threatening his estranged wife. He appeared in court in a wheelchair. The charge was dropped a year later. Nate Dogg spent the last years of his life trying to rebound from his medical problems. “All dogs go to heaven ... RIP NATE DOGG,” tweeted Snoop Dogg.
