Duffey declared winner after recount

CANCUN, Mexico (AP) — Even if we stopped spewing global warming gases today, the world would face a steady rise in food prices this century. But on our current emissions path, climate change becomes the “threat multiplier” that could double grain prices by 2050 and leave millions more children malnourished, global food experts reported Wednesday.

From left, Republican James Duffey was confirmed Wednesday as the winner of a Chaves County Commission race following a three-day recount.

A District Court judge affirmed local election results that declared Republican James Duffey the winner of a Chaves County Commission seat.

Duffey defeated Democrat Eloy Ortega by one vote following a three-day recount of the race that originally put the Republican ahead by two votes. Judge Charles Currier denied an attempt

by Ortega’s attorney to disqualify a military absentee ballot which would have resulted in a tie.

“The ballot is valid,” Currier said. “I’m satisfied by preponderance of the evi-

dence that the ballot was legitimate.”

Ortega, who posted more than $13,400 as security to cover the cost of the recount, and fellow Democrats walked out of the courthouse declining to speak with reporters or say if they planned to contest the entire race.

Timothy Cusack, Ortega’s attorney, also declined to comment.

“I’ll know I’m the county commissioner when I’m sworn in,” Duffey said.

Both parties spent the third and final day of the recount in court discussing the absentee ballot. It raised suspicion by Democrats because it was smaller in size compared with other

TRUMP SAYS HIRE LEACH

Mike Leach would love to be back on the sidelines next season. He says he just hasn’t heard from anyone interested in hiring him yet.

The former Texas Tech coach is getting some lobbying help for the open job at Miami, though.

Donald Trump sent a letter to university President Donna Shalala this week, suggesting the Hurricanes hire Leach to replace the departed Randy Shannon.

Leach and Trump have been friends for several years.

Woman sentenced to 3 years for selling prescription drugs

Barbara Sanchez, 46, was sentenced Wednesday to three years, with five years probation, for traf ficking a controlled substance.

Fifth Judicial District Judge Steven L. Bell explained that one year was mandatory and two years were for underlying charges.

The arrest was the result of an investigation done by the Chaves County Metro Narcotics Task Force Division of the Chaves County Sheriff’s Office.

According to the criminal

complaint filed in Chaves County Magistrate Court in January, Sanchez sold 20 prescription morphine tablets on Sept. 30, 2009, to an undercover agent.

Assistant District Attorney Ben Schrope asked for the full sentence of nine years, plus one year enhancement, for a total of 10 years.

Defense attor ney Jesse Cosby argued that this was not a regular habit for the defendant.

Robert Tringes spoke for the defense, saying that Sanchez currently was the primary

caregiver to her three grandchildren, ages 1, 2 and 5 years.

When Bell pronounced his sentence, he stated, “I don’t condone what was done. It’s different than trafficking in street narcotics ... still it’s an illegal act.”

He accepted the fact that Sanchez was a caregiver with three children at home, allowing her until Dec. 27 to get her affairs in order at which time she is scheduled to turn herself in to Chaves County Detention Center.

“I felt like they were just trying to throw out a (valid military) ballot for no reason,” said Coakley, following the hearing and after taking the stand for about one hour. “I’m embarrassed that that happened in Chaves County.”

The County Commission is slated to meet Monday to recanvass the 2010 General Election results because the figures have changed.

The total votes are 1,004 for Duffey and 1,003 for Ortega.

Coakley said Duffey will be sworn in Jan. 1.

Lawmakers negotiate tax cuts

mattarco@roswell-record.com

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House held the door open Wednesday for a yearend compromise that would extend all the Bush-era tax cuts temporarily and the Senate’s top Republican said the only question that remained was how long current rates should be allowed to continue before they expire.

Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell said all Republicans and some Democrats oppose any plan that would allow tax rates for the wealthy to rise. He predicted the Senate would approve extending the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts for everyone.

“The only thing we’re discussing now is just how long” to extend them, McConnell said Wednesday evening.

Officials said negotiations center on a one- to three-year extension of the current rates.

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs reiterated that President Barack Obama’s main goal is to prevent a middle-class tax increase. Obama’s “other line in the sand” is that he won’t support a per manent extension of tax cuts for the wealthy, Gibbs said on ABC’s “Good Morning America.”

Obama has specifically voiced his objection to a per manent extension “to the wealthiest Americans.

“Having said that, we agreed that there must be some sensible common ground,” Obama said.

That leaves open the possibility of a temporary extension of all the tax cuts.

Later, Gibbs declined to say whether Obama would support extending all the tax cuts for up to three years, which would push the issue beyond the next presidential election, in 2012.

Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., said, “At the end of the day, I’ve been saying for six months, we’ll end up with a minimum of two years of tax policy.”

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and White House Budget Director Jacob Lew held two closed-door meetings Wednesday with a group of four lawmakers from both parties to negotiate a deal on tax cuts.

“We are still talking in somewhat general terms although we’ve asked the staff of the various committees to make sure that we have detailed infor mation on certain issues,” Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., said after the evening session.

State proposing changes for medical marijuana

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Some medical marijuana growers in New Mexico say proposed changes to the state’s program, which include new fees imposed on producers, weren’t adequately considered and would destroy small-scale licensed growers.

T he st at e D e par t m e nt o f H e al t h announced proposed changes to the program’s regulations in late summer, and revised them after growers and patients criticized the changes during a September hearing.

A hearing on the latest plan is set for today in Santa Fe. Health Department officials have said they want to raise fees to pay for administering the program, which until now has been funded from other agency programs.

“We tried to project income in such a way that it will support the program substantially, especially given the current budget situation,” Health Secretary Dr. Alfredo Vigil said.

Initially, the agency proposed creating a new annual fee equal to 7 percent of a producer’s yearly gross receipts. The department scuttled that plan after objections that the fee in essence doub le d t he g r os s r e c e i p t s ta x g r o we r s already pay.

The agency now proposes an annual

The agency now proposes an annual fee based on how long a grower has operated, ranging from $5,000 for producers licensed for less than a year up to $30,000 for those licensed for more than three years.

fe e b a se d o n h o w l on g a gr owe r h as operated, ranging from $5,000 for producers licensed for less than a year up to $30,000 for those licensed for more than three years.

Santa Fe grower Len Goodman said a fixed dollar amount will allow large, wellcapitalized producers such as himself to continue but will kill small ones. “ E v er y co mm un i ty in N e w M exi co should be able to have a small-scale producer to take care of small needs. That fee precludes that,” he said.

However, one large producer, SFINM, in comments prepared for the hearing, said the proposed rules are well thought out and that the proposed renewal fees are realistic.

The attorney for the newly formed New Mexico Medical Cannabis Producers’ Guild, Paul Livingston of Placitas, contended in a recent letter to Vigil that the

department failed to adequately consider the costs or justification for its proposals — in particular, the increased fees on the licensed, nonprofit growers.

The guild, only about three months old, is too new to have developed a position on the plan, Livingston said in an interview.

However, he said there’s “a general feeling it’s unreasonable to demand a fee” without detailing how it would be spent and without addressing other concerns growers have.

Producers also are upset the state did not propose raising the current limit on the amount of medical marijuana they can have — 9 5 m a tu r e p lan t s a n d seedlings and enough inventory of medical marijuana to meet the needs of current patients.

Army revamps training diet

FORT LEONARD WOOD, Mo. (AP) — At Army training sites across the nation, the mess hall is beginning to look different. Milk and juice dispensers are replacing soda fountains, and whole grains are being substituted for white bread and pasta.

The military increasingly believes that producing quality recruits starts at the dinner table during basic training, so it has started a more emphatic effort to change their eating habits. Color-coded labels point the way to healthy items, and drill sergeants stand watch over the chow line, calling out soldiers who don’t put enough fruit on their plates.

Many new soldiers have never given much thought to their diets — a problem that reflects the poor food choices of a nation with more and more obese people.

91-year-old cyclist hit by vehicle EMILY RUSSO MILLER RECORD STAFF WRITER

A 91-year-old man on a bicycle was struck by car travelling southbound on Union Avenue Wednesday afternoon, authorities say.

The victim was transported to Roswell Regional Hospital to be treated for his injuries.

The driver of the gold Honda Accord LX said the elderly man was in the middle of Chisum Road and

Union Avenue, a busy fourlane intersection in a school zone, when she hit him.

“I wasn’t going that fast,” the young driver, visibly shook up, said after the accident.

She estimated she was driving approximately 25 miles per hour when the cyclist collided with the front right side of her vehicle, shattering a portion of her windshield, breaking the sideview mirror and

denting the front bumper.

Roswell police officers who responded to the scene said the man was conscious before he was whisked away in an ambulance.

“He was coherent,” Officer N. Poire confir med while at the site of the accident.

No charges have been filed yet, and police say the investigation is still ongoing.

Witnesses who saw the

active patients the state has licensed.

New Mexico has 17 growers, six of them licensed just last month.

Producers suggested increasing the limit to 200 plants or more.

Goodman said it was “an enormous disappointment” the department did not propose higher plant limits.

He said he’s the state’s largest producer, but his business runs out within hours of a crop being ready. It takes two weeks to produce the next one, he said.

“We need plants because our patients need medicine,” he said.

SFINM, however, said plant numbers are sufficient and increasing them to more than 100 “invites federal scrutiny.”

Vigil said the proposed changes to the regulations were “fine-tuning” the program.

New Mexico’s medical marijuana law “was carefully crafted to make it a conservative, medical program,” Vigil said.

“I don’t think we’re restructuring the program any radical or significant way,” he said.

Vigil said he hoped final regulations would be in place soon, but Livingston said he’d prefer a study of the program’s medical, legal and economic aspects before regulations change.

Handgun stolen from vehicle

Police were called to Oak Place on Tuesday to take a report regarding the theft of a firearm. Police noted that there were no signs of forced entry. The victim stated a PT 145 Millenium 45 ACP Taurus, worth $350, was removed from her vehicle.

Unlawful weapon

Police were dispatched to Roswell High School, 800 W. Hobbs St., Tuesday, following a report of a student carrying weapons into the school. Officials received a tip that the student had knives hidden in his backpack. When checked, officers noted he had two knives which he was trying to sell to another student. The police issued a juvenile arrest citation for unlawful carrying of a weapon.

Battery

In a separate incident, police were called to Roswell High School, 800 W. Hobbs St., after one student struck another with brass knuckles during the first passing period. The battery was apparently gang-related. A witness said the subject struck the victim because one was a member of the Westside Gang and the other a member of the Northside Gang.

to include other issues, including a package of business and individual tax cuts that expired at the end of 2009.

The business tax cuts, including a popular research and development tax credit, have wide support in Congress, but lawmakers have been unable to agree on spending cuts or other tax increases to pay for them.

“We need to figure out where there’s agreement between the House and the Senate on those packages, what would be in something if we decided to move forward,” Van Hollen said.

More talks are scheduled for today.

Obama and Democratic leaders in Congress want to extend the Bush era tax cuts for individuals making less than $200,000 and married couples making less than $250,000. Republicans and some rank-and-file Democrats want to extend the tax cuts for everyone.

Making tax cuts permanent for middle- and lower-income taxpayers would add a little more than $3 trillion to the national debt over the next decade.

Making them permanent for high earners would require an additional $700 billion in federal borrowing, according to congressional estimates.

The House vote, scheduled for today, would extend middle-class tax cuts while letting tax cuts for high earners expire. Even if it passes the House, the bill stands no chance in the Senate.

Nevertheless, House Democrats want to publicly stake out their position before compromising on extending the tax cuts for everyone.

Some Senate Democrats are pushing for a similar vote.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., said the House vote wouldn’t undermine bipartisan negotiations on the tax cuts, “nor is it intended to embarrass or to put Republicans in a difficult place.”

House Republican Leader John Boehner of Ohio called the vote, “a Washington stalling tactic with jobThe Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce took a strong stance against the House Democratic measure, saying it “fails to prevent a massive tax increase on small businesses.” It also issued a letter signed by more than 1,300 businesses and trade associations calling on Congress to adopt a “long-ter m extension” of all expiring tax provisions by the end of the year.

Obama said Wednesday he is confident Democrats and Republicans will be able to resolve their differences over tax cuts, though he said there would be some “lingering politics” that have to be dealt with.

Forty-two Senate Republicans signed a letter to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., saying they intend to block action on all Democraticbacked legislation until the Senate votes on extending the Bush tax cuts, as well as a budget bill needed to keep funding the government into next year.

The strategy would further doom already dismal prospects for Democratic attempts to end the Pentagon’s practice of discharging openly gay members of the military service and give legal status to young illegal immigrants who join the military or attend college.

Republicans have little incentive to make major concessions in December, considering their power on Capitol Hill will gr eatly incr ease in January.

Democrats still control both chambers until the end of the year, but they need Republican votes in the Senate to pass a tax bill.

“Congress should vote immediately to cut spending and stop all the tax hikes,” Boehner said. “If the lame-duck Congress is unwilling to cut spending and per manently stop all the tax hikes, the new House majority will act in January.”

Police investigate ex-sheriff’s purchases

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — State police said Wednesday they are investigating whether Santa Fe County’s former sheriff sold new as well as used equipment from his department over the Internet.

Greg Solano, who resigned Nov. 24, released a letter in which he said he’d been having financial problems in recent years and had been

selling old, discarded department equipment online, including protective vests, phones, flashlights, police belts and holsters.

But state police spokesman Lt. Eric Garcia said Wednesday that there’s evidence some of the statements in Solano’s letter “were not accurate.”

“One of those statements was that he was selling used

equipment. Some was used, but some was brand-new as well,” Garcia said.

Solano’s attorney, Brooke Gamble, said Wednesday she would have no comment.

Garcia would not discuss whether state police had conducted searches in the case, and said court documents have been sealed.

Government does do some useful stuff A4 Thursday, December 2, 2010

OPINION

Sometimes my friends on the right get a little tiresome with the continuing litany that government is bad. That isn’t entirely true.

Government does do some good stuff beyond the basic missions of education, health care, public safety and infrastructure.

Nor is it true that when government does something good, such as cut taxes, all is sweetness and light. Here I’m referring to the current argument from Paul Gessing of the Rio Grande Foundation that the Richardson tax cuts explain New Mexico’s climb in state per capita income ranks the past few years.

(Disclosure: A grant obtained by the Rio Grande Foundation paid for operating the now-defunct print version of Capital Report New Mexico in 2009 and 2010. I was editor and publisher of Capitol Report and appreciate the support.)

Nationally, I buy the argument that if taxes are cut, the economy

NEW MEXICO PROGRESS

grows and even more tax revenue results. For New Mexico, I don’t think it’s quite that simple.

To start, after three legislative sessions, according to analysis at the time from the Legislative Council Service and my arithmetic, Richardson raised taxes (or withdrew promises to lower them) by a cumulative tune $762 million. Tax cuts totaled $567.6 million, making Richardson’s overall tax record one of increases with a three-year $194.5 million total.

Richardson also did some clever things that pulled money from municipalities. The offset of the

Roswell Daily Record

food tax cut was one. Escalation of local gross receipts taxes resulted.

Eight percent rates are found throughout the state.

In any case, taxes aren’t part of personal income. Given that per capita income is personal income divided by population, I don’t see tax changes affecting per capita income rankings. Gessing reports a correlation, I believe. Nationally, gross domestic product, the total of economic activity, measures tax change effects. For states, the measure might be gross state product.

As for the evils of government, some huge pieces of the state’s “basic industry” (in economic developer’s jargon) come from the government. These institutions get buried in the continuing rhetoric about “depending” on “The Government,” as if “The Government” is one thing and one check is written to New Mexico to pay for everything.

While our Air Force bases —

Cannon and Holloman — are one thing, so far as I know, our research institutions are not. Kirtland Air Force Base is a highly unusual beast, a multi-mission facility with everything from aerospace studies, para-rescue training and special operations. That’s a bunch of checks.

Sure the core mission of our large research institutions — Sandia, Los Alamos and White Sands — is national defense with emphasis on nuclear. But there is much more.

In Santa Fe, the various Museums of New Mexico are a central element in making Santa Fe a world-class destination. State government operates the museums.

The History Museum, the Palace of the Governors, the Art Museum, the Folk Art Museum, and the Indian Arts Museum reek of excellence.

Finally there is this whole notion that we “depend” on government. Think about it. An image

develops: the New Mexico civic and economic polity lying back, stoned out of its collective gourd with an IV directly injecting those government dollars.

Not exactly.

These institutions are a rich environment littered with worldclass people. Former LANL director Siegfried Hecker is today’s headline-grabbing example. Hecker, a really smart and enormously decent man (from my limited acquaintance some years ago), is the world’s expert on North Korean nuclear activity.

On the museum side, the Art Museum is an important player in photography, one art area about which I know a little.

These institutions draw other top-level entities such as the O’Keeffe Museum and the Santa Fe Institute.

It just so happens the government pays the bills. © New Mexico News Services 2010

Congressional Republicans face a test of their newly rediscovered principles. They can save taxpayers billions of dollars and spur the free market simply by allowing to expire at year’s end the subsidies for domestic ethanol production and tariffs on imported ethanol.

We soon will know whether the GOP, reenergized by the tea party, lives up to its own hype. The ethanol lobby for manufacturers of the blended fuel historically has been more closely aligned with Republicans than it has with Democrats.

At midnight Dec. 31, a 45-cent-per-gallon Volumetric Ethanol Excise Tax Credit and a 54-cent-per -gallon tarif f on imported ethanol expire. All Congress needs to do to rid the country of these twin evils is nothing. But armies of lobbyists whose clients benefit from the taxpayer-subsidized and gover nment-protected domestic cor n ethanol industry are pressing for up to a five-year renewal of both special treatments.

“Congress should never have enacted a Soviet-style production quota for ethanol,” scolded a recent open letter to Congress from the Competitive Enterprise Institute, American Conservative Union, National Taxpayers Union and other free-market and taxpayer organizations.

The tax credit drains up to $6 billion a year from the general fund. The tariff protects domestic ethanol manufacturers from lower-priced Brazilian sugar cane ethanol competitors. Both result in inflated fuel prices and a faux industry that otherwise couldn’t operate profitably.

The GOP has many opportunities to reverse years of bad policies established by the George W. Bush and Barack Obama administrations. But none will be a better measure of the party’s principles — or lack of them — than the opportunity to end tax subsidies for contrived commercial enterprises propped up with free trade-retarding tariffs.

The 2005 and 2007 energy bills mandated use of ethanol. Among unanticipated ill effects was a boom in corn production, which crowded out other crops, while diverting corn to fuel manufacturing. The repercussions reached the world market, with some even blaming ethanol for Mexican riots over the scarcity of tortillas.

Environmentalists recognized the harm of vastly larger corn crops that demanded more fertilizer production and use, adding to harmful runoff, which some blamed for “dead zones” in the Gulf of Mexico adversely affecting aquatic life. The expanded corn crop acreage also was blamed for soil erosion and endangered wildlife habitats.

Unintended consequences are numerous and bizarre. Oversupply, The Wall Street Journal reported, forced down prices and drove some ethanol producers into financial trouble. It’s time Congress and conservative, free-market Republicans, in particular, let this “industry” die.

Guest Editorial The New Bern Sun Journal DEAR DR. GOTT: I have heard that surgeons are using Super Glue to close wounds in the operating room. Is this true? If it is, could I use it to close painful cracks in my heels and hands?

DEAR READER: This is a common practice that has been used for a number of years; however, the product is not Super Glue. DermaBond contains a variety of components found in Super Glue and is approved for medical use.

This clear epoxy resin sets in about three minutes and lasts up to 10 days. It cannot take the place of sutures or staples in all cases and its uses are relatively restricted. Complicated closures still require traditional stitches. DermaBond

Military looking long-term at Afghanistan SHELDON RICHMAN THE FUTURE OF FREEDOM FOUNDATION

President Obama once said withdrawal from Afghanistan would begin in July 2011 — maybe, conditions permitting.

But then he backed off that date. Now NATO, echoing American officials, says security won’t be fully turned over to the Afghan government any earlier than the end of 2014 — again, maybe; the alliance has signed a long-term security agreement with the Afghan president. Allied troops thus will remain in Afghanistan — as occupiers always say — in

a supporting role beyond 2014 and even 2015. Calling the Dec. 31, 2014, an “aspirational goal,” Pentagon spokesman Geoff Morrell said, “It does not mean that all U.S. or coalition forces would necessarily be gone by that date.”

Even before Obama backed off the 2011 timetable and before the NATO summit, Gen. David Petraeus had told Bob Woodward, “You have to recognize that I don’t think you win this war. I think you keep fighting. You have to stay after it. This is the kind of fight we’re in for the rest of our lives and probably our kids’ lives.” And Defense Sec-

Home-use tissue-adhesive products are available but should only be used on small lacerations once all contamination has been removed from a wound to prevent infection. I urge anyone with an open wound to consult a physician before taking matters (or glues) into their own hands.

DEAR DR. GOTT: I’ve had a sinus infection for the past eight years. I’ve had two unsuccessful sinus operations.

I use a nasal steroid twice a day and a saline solution wash up my nose every day. I’ve had numerous antibiotics and still have the infection. I quit alcohol because my sinuses became more inflamed and swollen after drinking. A med-

retary Robert Gates went even further, telling Woodward: “We’re not leaving Afghanistan prematurely. In fact, we’re not ever leaving at all.”

Thus no one seems to take target dates or even aspirational goals very seriously.

The U.S. national-security apparatus is planted in Afghanistan and appears in no hurry to leave.

This is confirmed by concrete facts. Award-winning investigative journalist Nick Turse notes that the U.S. gover nment is engaged in a “base-building surge that has left the countryside of Afghanistan dotted with mili-

DEAR READER: Alcohol prevents nutrients from feeding the immune system. Once in the blood, it will reduce the number and impair the function of the white blood cells (WBC) in the body. The lower the white-blood-cell count, the more difficult it becomes to fight off disease. Low white blood counts can occur with See GOTT, Page A5

Turse says government documents “reveal plans for largescale, expensive Afghan base expansions of every sort and a military that is expecting to pursue its building boom without letup well into the future. These facts-on-theground indicate that, whatever timelines for phased withdrawal may be issued in Washington, the U.S. military is focused on building up, not

drawing down, in Afghanistan.”

Turse has examined plans to expand a variety of military facilities at a cost of tens of millions of dollars, with completion not expected until well past the time the American withdrawal was supposed to commence. The facilities include airstrips that support large transport aircraft, “airfield parking space,” maintenance installations, ammunition storages, and living quarters for troops.

“Documents reveal that this sort of expansion is now going on at a remarkably rapid pace all over the country,” Turse writes. “… And whenever you stumble upon a document indicating that work of a certain sort is taking place at one FOB (forward operating base), you can be sure that, sooner or later, you will find similar work at other FOBs.” The magnitude of the building project is extraordinary, Turse says. After describing the enhancement of FOB Shindand in western Afghanistan, documented by the Washington Post, Turse comments: “Multiply this, FOB by FOB, the length and breadth of Afghanistan, and you have a building program fit for a long war.”

Turse notes, when Petraeus told ABC News last year that the military had “finally gotten the inputs right in Afghanistan” and that the “counterinsurgency clock” had restarted. Really?

After years of occupation and untold deaths and injuries the military is just now claiming that it is getting things right. “But it is just at this point that we feel that we do have the organizations that we learned in Iraq and from history are necessary for the conduct (of) this kind of campaign,” Petraeus said. This sounds like a talking point. The Iraqi occupation has empowered the Iranbacked Shi’a majority, which does not need a U.S. presence to survive. There is nothing comparable in Afghanistan, where the U.S. government backs a puppet minority government in Kabul that has little legitimacy in the rest of the country.

“The building boom occurring on U.S. bases across Afghanistan and the contracts for future construction being awarded at the moment,” Turse writes, “seem to confirm that, whatever the White House has in mind, the military is operating on something closer to the Petraeus timeline.”

Obama gets Powell’s backing on START nuclear deal Roswell Daily Record

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama rallied support for a stalled nuclear treaty from former Secretary of State Colin Powell Wednesday, as Republican lawmakers indicated a greater willingness to ratify the agreement with Russia by the end of the year.

Both Obama and Powell warned of grave consequences if the Senate fails to ratify the New START pact, which would reduce how many strategic warheads the United States and Russia could hold and set up a system so each could inspect and verify the other’s arsenal.

“When you have uncertainty in the area of nuclear weapons, that’s a much more dangerous world to live in,” Obama said from the Oval Office after a meeting with Powell and Vice President Joe Biden.

Powell, a retired four-star Army general and former Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman, said he fully supports the treaty, and believes Obama has adequately addressed the concerns of Republicans lawmakers over verification and modernization of the remaining U.S. nuclear arsenal.

Failing to ratify the treaty, Powell said, could leave the U.S. in a vulnerable position.

“We’re not exactly sure what’s going on in the Russian Federation, and they’re not exactly sure what’s going on in the United States,” said Powell, who joined Obama in urging the Senate to ratify the treaty by the end of the year.

White House officials were cautiously optimistic Wednesday that momentum was building toward the treaty’s ultimate ratification. Officials specifically pointed to comments this week from Sen. George Voinovich, R-Ohio, and Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who both indicated they’d like to finish work on the treaty this year.

More than a dozen GOP lawmakers met to discuss the administration’s proposal on funding for modernizing the nuclear arsenal. Republicans, led by Sen. Jon Kyl, have argued that the Senate should not consider the treaty until more is done to maintain and improve the nuclear com-

OBITUARY

George and Celia Romero

A rosary will be recited for George E. Romero, 70, of Roswell, and Celia L. Romero, 64, of Roswell, at 7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 2, 2010, in Saint John the Baptist Catholic Church. A funeral Mass will be celebrated at 10 a.m. Friday, Dec. 3, 2010, at Saint John the Baptist Church. Burial will follow at Lake Arthur Cemetery.

Celia and George Romero, who were both longtime residents of Roswell, passed away on Nov. 28, 2010.

George was born on April 16, 1940, in San Ignacio to Andrea Salcido Romero and Ramon Alarid. He married Celia Romero in Lake Arthur on Sept. 8, 1962.

George was a hardworking man, who began at Pepsi Cola, then started his own business, Romero’s Pest Control. George was also a very talented artist, who followed in his son’s footsteps and opened Romero’s Tattoos in 1995. He was an extremely proud, familyoriented man who loved spending time with his children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

Those preceding George in death were grandparents, Jose and Agueda Romero; father, Ramon Alarid, mother, Andrea Salcido Romero, brother, Daniel Romero, and daughter, Stephanie Jane Romero.

Celia was born to Frank Anaya and Guadalupe Sandoval Anaya in Lake Arthur on July 8, 1945. Celia was a very religious woman and gave thanks to God every day for helping her battle with breast cancer. She was very adamant in teaching breast cancer awareness and was a 14-year cancer survivor. Celia was loved and cherished by all of her patients during her 22-year career as a certified nurse’s assistant. Later in life, she enjoyed teaching

plex.

Sen. Richard Lugar, a proponent of the treaty, said that he presented a letter at the meeting from the directors of the main U.S. nuclear laboratories backing the administration’s plan and that it was well received by his colleagues.

Maine’s moderate Republican Sen. Olympia Snowe credited the White House for working with Republicans to address their questions.

“Speaking for myself, I think there is that reflection and recognition that we can get it done this year,” she said.

Leading Republican senators had argued that any action on START would have to come after the Senate addresses an extension of Bush-era tax rates and legislation to keep the government operating during the lame-duck session.

Republicans have threatened to block

Celia was preceded in death by her father, Frank Anaya; mother, Guadalupe Sandoval Anaya; daughter, Stephanie Jane Romero; and two sisters, Grace and Elisha Anaya.

Those left to cherish the memory of George and Celia are their beloved children, Barbara and husband, Manuel Miranda, Daniel and wife, Tera Romero, Agnes and husband, Matt Bonham; nine grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren: T io Pablo, Joe E. and daughter, JoAnn Romero, Jose Segura and family, Emily Salazar and family of Hobbs, Carla, Daniel and wife, Virgie, Lilia, Frances, Emma and husband, Joe, Carol and husband, Ernesto, Virgie, Mary, Lena and husband, Wes, Bertha and husband, John, Nancy, Lionel, and Anita and husband, Joe. George’s pallbearers will be Daniel Romero, Mathew Bonham, Jose Segura, Manual Miranda Jr., Daniel “Pelon” Romero Jr., and Christopher Bonham.

Celia’s pallbearers will be Julian Martinez, Thomas Martinez, Tony Vasquez, Cay Medrano, Phillip Lopez and Alfred Montoya.

Honorary pallbearers include Manual Miranda Sr., Monica Little, Georgia Romero, JoAnn Romero, Joey Martinez, Chris Padilla, Matthew Torrez, Jay Rock Morales, Joshua Moreno and Larry Joe Anaya.

“Were we to finish the two things that we absolutely must do — taxes and spending — the more time that would be left for something else,” Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky said.

Reid also wants to hold votes on immigration legislation and ending the military’s don’t-ask, don’t-tell policy for gay service members.

The White House has sought to cast the treaty’s ratification as a national security imperative, not a political issue. Officials have underscored the need for the U.S. to show credibility in its newly improved relationship with Russia, whose support is vital in providing supply help for the war

in Afghanistan and strengthening international pressure on Iran over its nuclear intentions.

“The relationships and trust that have built from the new START treaty spill over into a whole host of other national security issues that are of vital importance to America,” Obama said Wednesday.

Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has bluntly warned that his country would build up its nuclear forces if the U.S. does not ratify the treaty.

In an interview to be broadcast Wednesday on CNN, Putin said that if START isn’t ratified, “we’ll have to react somehow,” including deploying new nuclear technology. Putin said it would be “very dumb” for lawmakers to block the treaty.

The White House has launched a highprofile, high-stakes campaign to highlight the treaty’s support both in the U.S. and around the world.

Powell, who served as Secretary of State under former President George W. Bush, is one of several current and former national security officials Obama has brought in to boost the case for the treaty’s ratification.

Last month, the president met at the White House with what he called “some of the most able statesmen from both parties” to get support for START. They included for mer secretaries of state Madeleine Albright, James Baker III and Henry Kissinger, for mer defense secretaries William Perry and William Cohen and former National Security Adviser Brent Scowcroft.

During a NATO summit in Portugal, Obama also secured the backing of several Easter n European nations, easing Voinovich’s concerns that the treaty would undermine the confidence of allies in Central and Eastern Europe.

Whether Republicans will be swayed by the shows of support for the treaty was unclear. One top Republican, Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas said Wednesday that Powell’s endorsement would have no impact on his vote.

First lady Michelle Obama hugs White House Executive Chef Cristeta Comerford after she visited Christmas arts and crafts workstations Wednesday in the State Dining Room of the White House.

‘Simple Gifts’ is Christmas theme at White House WASHINGTON (AP) — Bo’s pawprints are all over Christmas at the White House this year.

A larger-than-life version of President Barack Obama’s dog, made of 40,000 twisted pipe cleaners, is one of the first things tourists and other guests will see when they stroll through White House halls all decked out for the holidays.

The 2-year-old Portuguese water dog features prominently in the 350-pound, white chocolate-covered gingerbread White House. A version of the furry pooch, made from almond paste, sits on the edible grounds near a replica of Michelle Obama’s fruit and vegetable garden.

“This year, Bo has taken on increased importance in the house so we made him a little bigger,” White House pastry chef Bill Yosses told reporters Wednesday during a preview of the holiday decorations.

His fingers were still stained black from sculpting the mini Bo. Bo joined Obama, Mrs. Obama and daughters Malia and Sasha Obama in signing the family’s Christmas card — with a paw print.

Guests can also take a bite out of Bo — the Christmas cookie variety.

The first lady held an open house Wednesday for children of parents on active duty or reserve status in the Marine Corps. They and their parents, in their dress blues, were the first guests to see the White House in its holiday glory, Mrs. Obama said.

staffers later led the kids down the Christmas tree-lined hall to the State Dining Room, where they lear ned how to ice gingerbread cookies, use fruit and vegetables stamps to decorate a card, and make magazine trees.

Mrs. Obama joined the hands-on activities. She decorated a cookie and a card, and sampled a cookie given to her by one of the kids.

She described the pipe cleaner version of Bo as “pretty, pretty shocking. But it’s very cool and he’s very soft.”

Mrs. Obama settled on the theme of “Simple Gifts” for her second holiday season as first lady, emphasizing what she says are the simple things that bring joy at Christmas time, such as music, children, friends and family, and gifts made from nature.

Some of the White House decorations are made from basic and reusable materials, such as wood, newspaper and magazines.

The usual centerpiece of Christmas at the White House is the official tree, one of 19 trees in public areas of the building.

The 18 1/2-foot Douglas fir is anchored to the Blue Room ceiling to keep it from tipping over. Its

theme honors county and state fairs, and the tree is decorated with prize ribbons from each state and territory.

One addition this year was Mrs. Obama’s idea for a “military appreciation tree.” It is stationed near the entrance for visitors and is decorated with glass bulb ornaments representing the five branches of the military. A handmade dove is the topper.

Guests will be encouraged to write messages to troops using stationery kept in a nearby basket. The notes will be collected and delivered to service members in Iraq, Afghanistan and other parts of the world.

Also new is a children’s area — with a tree decorated with gingerbread or naments and Bo’s pipe cleaner replica. The real Bo met the other Bo on Tuesday.

It took less than a week to transform the White House into a Christmas wonderland. Nearly 100 volunteer decorators from around the country flew in to town and began working on the decorations the day after Thanksgiving.

In all, more than 100,000 people are expected to tour the White House by the end of the month.

NATIONAL BRIEFS ESPN EXECUTIVE EXPECTS JON GRUDEN TO STAY IN BROADCASTING

CORAL GABLES, Fla. (AP) — An ESPN executive said Wednesday he expected Jon Gruden to stay in broadcasting and not return to coaching.

The Super Bowl-winning former Tampa Bay and Oakland coach has been linked to the opening at the University of Miami.

Gruden was hired as an analyst for “Monday Night Football” before last season after being fired by the Buccaneers.

Asked if he thought Gruden would remain with the network, ESPN executive vice president Norby Williamson said, “Absolutely.”

“My feeling is Jon is in Year 2 of a long-term contract, and we expect Jon to be on ‘Monday Night Football’ doing what he’s been doing for a long time to come,” Williamson said on a conference call about ESPN’s baseball announcers.

But Williamson also went on a long tangent about how it was worth the risk to hire announcers who might soon return to coaching if it meant having the top talent, however briefly.

Gruden had issued a statement through ESPN late Sunday, saying “I am committed to ‘Monday Night Football’ and to ESPN.”

Tashard wants to be the No. 1 ‘Choice’

IRVING, Texas (AP) — Dallas Cowboys thirdstring running back Tashard Choice has spent most of the season wondering why he wasn’t playing more.

Now that he’s likely headed toward his most time yet this Sunday against the Colts, he’s gotten some answers and they weren’t what he was hoping to hear.

Team owner Jerry Jones said Choice’s reduced role in the offense — 14 carries in 11 games — stems from his poor performance on punt and kickoff units.

“Your third back has to be a real contributor on special teams and he’s not,” Jones said on his weekly radio show. “That really handicaps him.”

Interim coach Jason Garrett added that Choice simply isn’t better than the two guys ahead of him, Felix Jones and Marion Barber.

“When he’s gotten the bulk of his carries in the past, it’s been because Felix or Marion has been hurt,” Garrett said. “I think that is the right place for him given the other guys’ strengths.”

Now Barber is hurt, dealing with a calf injury that kept him out of practice Monday and Wednesday. So Choice is practicing more and likely to be part of a rotation with Jones on Sunday in Indianapolis.

season hoping to be part of a three-man rotation at running back. It sets up great on paper, with Barber a basher, Jones a slasher and Choice capable of playing either style.

He proved it as a rookie in 2008. His first career start came against a ferocious Pittsburgh defense and he had the best per-

formance of any running back against those Steelers, running for 88 yards and gaining another 78 as a receiver.

Over his first two years, he averaged 5.3 yards per carry and 8.8 yards per catch. The Cowboys showed they valued him by turning down trade offers.

“He’s unique,” Jones

said. “He really has a lot of the Emmitt (Smith) feel to him when he runs, if he just finds the soft spot.

And he’s really a heck of a good runner. But there’s more to it.”

That’s what he is learning. The hard way.

Choice went four straight games without a carry or a catch. Dallas

lost all those games and its running game was pathetic. Yet as badly as the Cowboys needed a spark on offense, Garrett — the offensive coordinator throughout Choice’s career — never gave him a chance.

Michigan State's Kalin Lucas, left, and Duke's Nolan Smith battle for a loose ball during the first half of Duke’s victory over the Spartans, Wednesday.

DURHAM, N.C. (AP) — Freshman Kyrie Irving scored a season-high 31 points and No. 1 Duke beat No. 6 Michigan State 84-79 on Wednesday night in the marquee matchup of the ACC/Big Ten Challenge.

Nolan Smith added 17 points and Kyle Singler scored 15 for the Blue Devils (7-0). They shot 47 percent, turned 20 Michigan State tur novers into 28 points, used a 12-2 spurt midway through the second half to take a double-figure lead and held off the Spartans down the stretch by hitting 9 of 12 free throws in the final 1:15.

Korie Lucious scored 20

points and Draymond Green added 10 of his 16 in the final minute for Michigan State (5-2). The Spartans shot 49 percent, were held to one field goal during a critical 7-minute stretch that coincided with Duke’s run but otherwise hung tight with the reigning national champions.

The Spartans put a few of the Blue Devils’ impressive winning streaks to the test. But ultimately, Duke found a way to win its 17th straight game dating to last season’s national title run, claim its 23rd straight victory at Cameron Indoor Stadium and run its NCAAbest streak of nonconfer-

ence wins at home to 81.

Mike Krzyzewski claimed the 875th victory of his Hall of Fame career to move one win behind Adolph Rupp, who’s in third place on the all-time list.

But for much of the way, little came easy for Duke.

Michigan State closed to 69-64 on Durrell Summers’ dunk with 3 1/2 minutes left before Singler stuck back Irving’s miss. Mason Plumlee hit two free throws to push it to 73-64 with 2:22 left.

Plumlee finished with 10 points and 10 rebounds for Duke, which won the first See DUKE, Page B2

Mike Leach would love to be back on the sidelines next season.

He says he just hasn’t heard from anyone interested in hiring him yet.

The for mer Texas Tech coach is getting some lobbying help for the open job at Miami, though.

Donald Trump sent a letter to university President Donna Shalala this week, suggesting the Hurricanes Donald Trump hire Leach to replace the departed Randy Shannon. Leach and Trump have been friends for several years.

“It’d be fun” to coach at Miami, Leach told The Associated Press.

After all, it’s just a three-hour drive to Miami from Key West, Fla., where Leach moved his family from Lubbock shortly after his dismissal last December.

Besides Miami, there are Big Ten coaching vacancies at Indiana, which fired Bill Lynch over the weekend, and Minnesota, which dismissed Tim Brewster during the season. Speculation abounds about the future of Rich Rodriguez at Michigan, which ended the year 7-5, and Pac-12-bound Colorado fired Dan Hawkins, too.

“I think most folks know where to find me,” Leach said.

The fact that he hasn’t heard from any schools with openings, “further illustrates the damage” the firing has had on his reputation, Leach said.

Texas Tech fired Leach on Dec. 30, 2009, two days after suspending him amid allegations he mistreated Adam James, a receiver with a concussion. James, the son of former NFL player and ESPN analyst Craig James, has said Leach twice ordered him to stand for hours while confined in a dark place during practice.

Leach has denied he mistreated the player and suspects an $800,000 bonus he was to have received See TRUMP, Page B2

“I was just excited to get in there,” Choice said.

Choice said Monday he hadn’t asked his bosses for an explanation about his reduced role “because it will make me mad.” He guessed it mostly had to do with Barber and Jones.

On Wednesday, after hearing the comments from Jones and Garrett, utes belonged to Duke.

Irving started the run with a free throw, and Singler hit two 3s during the burst — capping it with one in which he pump-faked Green in the corner, took one step left and swished it to make it 61-49 with 9:21 left.

Meanwhile, the Spartans — who entered averaging 17 turnovers — made the kinds of mistakes that usually prove problematic at Cameron. They turned it over six times during a stretch of eight possessions during Duke’s run.

Choice said, “It’s best for me not to say anything. I need to be quiet for now.”

Besides, he knows words aren’t going to change his situation.

Only gaining yards — and making tackles and blocks on special teams — can do that.

“You prove yourself being able to play,” Choice said. “When the opportunity ain’t there, Kalin Lucas added 14 points and Summers finished with 11 for Michigan State, which always seems to draw a tough assignment in this made-for -TV event.

This was the second straight year they had to face the reigning national champion on its home court. North Carolina claimed an 89-82 victory last year against the Spartans, who trailed by 19.

And a year earlier, Michigan State suffered a 35point loss to the Tar Heels at Ford Field.

Tateyama joining Texas Rangers

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Japanese free-agent pitcher Yoshinori Tateyama agreed Tuesday to a one-year contract with the AL champion Texas Rangers that includes club options for 2012 and 2013.

A sidearm thrower who turns 35 on Dec. 26, Tateyama is looking to pitch in the United States for the first time.

General manager Jon Daniels said Tateyama’s deal is for a split contract with a lower salary while in the minor leagues.

“We have a good feel for what he is, a quality relief pitcher who can throw the ball over the plate,” Daniels said. “He will have a chance to win a spot in the bullpen and help us during the season. ... Let’s not make it any more or less than that.”

Daniels said there were other teams interested in Tateyama, which is why he is getting a guaranteed contract.

“We felt it was worthwhile,” he said.

Tateyama has spent his entire career (1999-10) with the Nippon Ham Fighters in Japan’s Pacific League. Primarily a r eliever, he has a 3.43 ERA in 438 appearances.

In 58 games last season, Tateyama had a career-low 1.80 ERA. He was 1-2 with four saves and held opposing hitters to a .213 average. He struck out 59 and walked 11.

Daniels said T ateyama was recommended by the same group of scouts that last winter advised the return of Colby Lewis, the 1999 Rangers amateur draft pick who had pitched in Japan the previous two seasons.

“He tur ned out to be a pretty good acquisition,” Daniels said. “When these guys speak up, I tend to listen.”

Lewis was 12-13 with a 3.72 in 32 regular-season starts, then went 3-0 with a 1.71 ERA in four postseason starts for the Rangers.

Dec. 31, 2009, was the reason he was fired. He has sued the university for wrongful termination and filed a separate libel suit last week that accuses ESPN and a Dallas PR agency of slander.

As for football, Leach said he doesn’t care which conference he winds up in. What matters to him, he said, is to coach a competitive team at a school that backs his emphasis on academics and in a position where there would be stability.

At least he has T rump on his side.

The tycoon lobbied Miami to hire Leach in 2006, when they ultimately chose Shannon. University officials confir med the authenticity of Trump’s note Wednesday.

“You made a big mistake when you did not take my advice and hire Mike Leach of Texas Tech ... and you can now get him for the right price,” Trump wrote to Shalala.

DEAR ABBY: I’m responding to the letter from “Petless in Maryland” (10/13), who moved without her dog, cat and goldfish, but wants to encourage her son’s love of animals. Your advice was spot-on, but there is a deeper issue that was not addressed. By moving and leaving their pets behind, she has taught her son that animals are “disposable.” An animal is a commitment for life, not an object to be disposed of once one’s lifestyle changes. A pet is a member of the family, the same as a child or other family member.

“Petless” should have kept looking until they found an affordable place where they could keep their pets. The shelters are full of pets who have been abandoned by their families due to moves, divorces, etc.

“Petless” cannot afford the fees to keep a pet — but I’m willing to bet that she can afford a cell phone, cable TV, etc. She missed a chance to teach her son how to be a responsible pet owner, and how to honor the commitment that was made to those pets.

What a shame.

DEAR ABBY: There are a lot of options for pet lovers without resources for permanent adoption. “Petless” could contact the local SPCA and other agencies that might be looking for volunteers to have “visits” with pets.

SANDI IN SAN FRANCISCO

DEAR ABBY: There are rescue groups that have to put some of their adoptable dogs into boarding while they wait for a forever home. These dogs would love an hour or two of “breaking jail” for a walk or a trip to the dog park. A reputable organization would know the personalities of their dogs and be able to steer the mom toward “kidtested” dogs that would get along great with her son. It would not only be an excellent way to encourage the boy, but also a wonderful thing for the dogs.

ASHLEY IN SAN MARCOS, CALIF. DEAR ABBY: How about “Petless” contacting a senior center to see which seniors might need assistance with walking their dogs or with cat care? An assisted-living facility could also use this type of help. It would provide “Toby” a chance to share the love of animals, and the elderly residents would welcome such a sweet helper.

Dear Heloise: I was planning to make up some of your exfoliating body wash to give as Christmas presents and put the recipe with it. Now I can’t find the recipe! It had glycerin, Epsom salts, perfume or oils, and I’m not sure what else.

Vicki Dillman, via e-mail

Vicki, the Heloise Bath Salts recipe is easy to make and doesn’t cost much, either. I love using this recipe, and what a great idea for a Christmas present! Since you are planning on giving these as gifts, you could decorate the containers and attach the instructions for use.

Place 3 cups of Epsom salts in a bowl (do NOT use plastic).

In another bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of glycerin, a few drops of food coloring and enough perfume or essential oil to scent it. Mix all the ingredients together. Store the mixture in a covered plastic or glass container.

When you are ready to use it, get in a hot shower and apply the salts to your skin to exfoliate and leave it soft and silky. You also can use the salts for a soothing bath; just add 1-2 cups to a tub of hot water.

Dear Heloise: When I was younger, my brother and I used to love to go Christmas shopping with my parents, but they were always nervous about losing us in the large crowds at the mall. They purchased metal Christmas-bell necklaces on strong red cords, and the necklaces became our shopping bells. We were taught that if we were separated, we were to stand still and ring that bell as loud and hard as we could.

Cecelia, via e-mail This is a good hint for times other than the holiday season.

With all the holiday sounds in a store or mall, a whistle might be a better choice than a ringing bell.

Dear Heloise: The blades on my blender would not move; I thought I would have to buy a new blender. One teaspoon of cooking oil overnight and the blender works perfectly again.

Global experts: Warming could double food prices Dec 5

Dec 27

CANCUN, Mexico (AP) — Even if we stopped spewing global warming gases today, the world would face a steady rise in food prices this century. But on our current emissions path, climate change becomes the “threat multiplier” that could double grain prices by 2050 and leave millions more children malnourished, global food experts reported Wednesday.

Beyond 2050, when climate scientists project temperatures might rise to as much as 6.4 degrees C (11.5 degrees F) over 20th century levels, the planet grows “gloomy” for agriculture, said senior research fellow Gerald Nelson of the International Food Policy Research Institute.

The specialists of the authoritative, Washington-based IFPRI said they fed 15 scenarios of population and income growth into supercomputer models of climate and found that “climate change worsens future human wellbeing, especially among the world’s poorest people.”

The study, issued here at the annual U.N. climate conference, said prices will be driven up by a combination of factors: a slowdown in productivity in some places caused by warming and shifting rain patterns, and an increase in demand because of population and income growth.

Change apparently already is under way. Retur ning from northern India, agricultural scientist Andrew Jarvis said wheat farmers there were finding warming was maturing their crops too quickly.

“The temperatures are high and they’re getting reduced yields,” Jarvis, of the Colombia-based International Center for Tropical Agriculture, told reporters last month.

For most farmers around the world, trying to adapt to these changes “will pose major challenges,” Wednesday’s IFPRI report said.

Research points to future climate disruption for agricultural zones in much of sub-Saharan Africa, south Asia and parts of Latin America, including Mexico.

In one combination of climate models and scenarios, “the corn belt in the United States could actually see a significant reduction in productivity potential,” Nelson told reporters here.

“Unlike the 20th century, when real agricultural prices declined, the first half of the 21st century is likely to see increases in real agricultural prices,” the IFPRI report said.

Even with “perfect mitigation,” the implausible complete elimination immediately of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions, it said real prices for grain would rise because of growing demand and other factors — by 18 percent for rice by 2050 under the most optimistic scenario, to up to 34 percent for corn in the most pessimistic, a scenario envisioning high population growth.

But climate change “acts as a threat multiplier,” making feeding billions more mouths even more challenging, IFPRI said.

With climate change factored in, the increases in real prices by

W-weather, s-sunny, pc-partly cloudy, c-cloudy, sh-showers, t-thunderstorms, r-rain, sf-snow flurries, sn-snow, i-ice

2050 could range from 31 percent for rice in the most optimistic scenario, to 100 percent for corn in the most pessimistic. And IFPRI has estimated that such skyrocketing prices could boost the global population of undernourished children by 20 percent, by an additional 25 million children.

Up until 2050, endpoint of the experts’ projections, some of the impact could be offset by research development of higher -yielding varieties of corn, wheat and other crops, and by freer, more flexible global trade in food commodities, IFPRI said.

But beyond 2050, if temperatures rise sharply, “the world is a much more gloomy place for agriculture,” Nelson said.

Only deep reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and billions spent to help farmers adapt to a changing climate can head off serious food shortages, Nelson said. IFPRI, which is supported by world governments, estimates that at least $7 billion additional spending a year is needed for crop research and improved irrigation, roads and other upgrades of agricultural infrastructure.

Needed just as much, it said, are better satellite data on how the world’s farming zones are changing crops, land use and practices, and on-the-ground information from “citizen datagatherers equipped with GPSenabled camera phones and other measuring devices.

“Such data would yield huge payoffs in illuminating the state of the world as it unfolds,” it said.

Bitter cold kills 8 people, slams air traffic in Europe

GENEVA (AP) — Heavy snow and subzero temperatures swept across Europe, killing at least eight homeless people in Poland, closing major airports in Britain and Switzerland and causing hundreds of highway accidents.

Gatwick, London’s second largest airport, and Geneva, a major hub for low-cost carrier Easyjet, were forced to shut down Wednesday as staff struggled to clear runways of snow. Edinburgh airport in Scotland, Leeds airport in northern England, and Chambery and Grenoble in southeastern France also were closed.

In Poland, police said eight men died Tuesday night after a bitter cold front roared in, with temperatures falling to around -20 Celsius (-4 Fahrenheit). Police spokesman Mariusz Sokolowski said the men, from different parts of the country, had been drinking. The eastern Polish city of Bialystok hit -26 Celsius (-15 Fahrenheit) on Tuesday night.

Winter weather caused some 2,000 accidents on German roads Tuesday, officials said.

In northern Austria, police said a 69year-old retiree froze to death overnight when he slipped on a snow-covered bridge on his way home from a funeral and lost consciousness.

airport and 10 percent of flights out of Orly airport in Paris today. The authority on Wednesday urged passengers flying out of the airports to check with their airlines.

Officials at Gatwick, south of London, said the airport would remain closed until early today, stranding about 600 flights that were expected to leave Wednesday.

Extra staf f were working “around the clock” to clear the runways, and passengers were advised to check with their airline or Gatwick’s website for updates.

Gatwick was under five to six inches of snow Wednesday morning and has seen continuous snowfall throughout the day, said spokeswoman Andrea Hopkins, adding that she was unable to provide a current estimate.

Geneva’s airport will be closed until at least 6 p.m. (1700 GMT) Wednesday, a spokesman said. The city has seen 10 inches (25 centimeters) of fresh snow in the past 24 hours and many travelers unable to find a room spent the night in civil protection shelters.

Zurich, Switzerland’s biggest airport, reported delays and cancelations on the day many VIPs, including former President Bill Clinton and Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero, were travel-

ing to FIFA’s headquarters to push their countries’ bids to host the 2018 and 2022 football World Cups.

Airport spokeswoman Sonja Zoechling said the presence of so many private jets and charter planes in Zurich meant the airport had to turn down requests Wednesday for diverted landings.

Swiss weather agency Meteosuisse forecast more snow throughout the day as a low-pressure front centered over western Europe moves slowly eastward.

“We’ve got unusually cold air over large parts of the eastern Atlantic, and where that meets warm air coming for example from the Mediterranean you have a lot of snow,” said meteorologist Heinz Maurer.

He predicted that snowfall would ease in central Europe by today but nights will remain extremely cold.

La Brevine, in northwestern Switzerland, recorded temperatures of -31 degrees Celsius (-24 Fahrenheit) overnight, Maurer said.

Even the undersea Channel Tunnel was hit with travel delays due to the snow. Six Eurostar trains to and from London were canceled and delays on other services were expected.

In Ireland, flights from Dublin airport

were temporarily suspended early Wednesday while thick snow and ice was cleared from a main runway. With many schools closed and minor roads impassable due to snow, authorities urged drivers to stay home unless absolutely necessary. Grocery chain Tesco said the cold snap had seen a rise in sales of whiskey — often served warm in winter — and hot chocolate.

Nine regions in northwest and southeast France were put on a weather alert, warning of snow and ice until this morning.

SNCF, France’s national railway, said traffic on the main southeast routes had been affected by heavy snow, but 80 percent of its high-speed trains were still running.

In Poland, police were carrying out patrols to find homeless people and get them into shelters. The bad weather was also blamed for a collision between a tram and a car that killed one person in Szczecin.

Further south, some 300 people were evacuated from their homes in the northern part of Montenegro because of heavy rains. Authorities in the town of Berane said dozens of homes and roads were flooded and more evacuations were likely.

Neighboring Albania declared a state of emergency due to widespread flooding in Shkodra district, 75 miles (120 kilometers) northwest of the capital, Tirana, along the Drini River delta.

Hydroelectric power generated from the river covers the bulk of Albania’s energy needs. Prime Minister Sali Berisha says the flooding has resulted in an increase of energy output.

NCAA: Newton is eligible, but father broke Thursday, December 2, 2010

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) — Heisman Trophy favorite Cam Newton can focus on playing for the SEC championship instead of worrying about pay-for-play.

The NCAA ruled Wednesday that Auburn’s quarterback won’t be punished for the pay-for -play scheme concocted by his father, Cecil.

Instead, the younger Newton will lead the secondranked Tigers into the Southeastern Conference championship game Saturday against South Carolina — with a shot at the national title on the line.

The NCAA cleared Newton to compete without conditions, saying it was Cecil Newton and “an owner of a scouting service” — former Mississippi State player Kenny Rogers — who violated amateurism rules.

The NCAA became involved over the summer in investigating the pay-for play scheme that was discussed during Newton’s recruitment. Two Mississippi State boosters accused Cecil Newton and Rogers of trying to get up to $180,000 for Cam Newton to play for the Bulldogs while the quarterback was being recruited out of junior college last year.

“Based on the information available to the reinstatement staff at this time, we do not have sufficient evidence that Cam Newton or anyone from Auburn was aware of this activity, which led to his reinstatement,” Kevin Lennon, NCAA vice

Roswell Daily Record

president for academic and membership affairs, said in a news release.

“From a student-athlete reinstatement perspective, Auburn University met its obligation under NCAA bylaw 14.11.1. Under this threshold, the student-athlete has not participated while ineligible.”

The question of how much Auburn and Cam Newton knew about the pay-for-play scam has dogged the 12-0 Tigers since news of the recruiting scandal became public last month.

The NCAA and Auburn moved swiftly this week to bring at least some resolution.

The sports governing body concluded Monday that a violation had been committed by Cecil Newton and Rogers. A day later — following NCAA bylaws — Auburn declared Newton ineligible and then requested his eligibility be reinstated.

But Lennon seems to have left the door open for future discipline. The NCAA would not say Wednesday that the case is closed, referring to its statement that notes reinstatement likely occurs “prior to the close of an investigation.”

Still, it was good news for Auburn.

The ruling at least temporarily allays weeks-long fears that the Tigers would lose the player who has helped propel them from a middling SEC team last year to a never -say-die powerhouse with a shot at the title.

Newton is eligible to play in the SEC title game, even though the NCAA says his father broke rules by shopping his son to another school. The NCAA released its finding in a statement on Wednesday.

It also temporarily eases concerns that Auburn’s 12 wins — and any titles — would wind up being vacated if the NCAA had found that Newton had been ineligible because of violations committed before signing with the Tigers on New Year’s Eve 2009.

“We are pleased that the NCAA has agreed with out position that Cam Newton has been and continues to be eligible to play football at Auburn University,” Jay Jacobs, Auburn’s athletic director, said in the NCAA

This Oct. 9 file photo shows LeBron James throwing powder into the air prior to his team’s preseason game against the San Antonio Spurs. Shaquille O’Neal plans to watch James’ return to Cleveland on Thursday night for one reason. “I’m anxious to see if he’s going to do that powder thing,” O'Neal said before a shootaround on Tuesday.

Cleveland ready for LeBron’s

CLEVELAND (AP) — They’re coming armed with lingering anger from an emotional summer breakup. They’re going to yell and scream and vent at someone who did them wrong. It’s the Akron kid they watched grow up, the one they loved, the one who restored hope ... only to rip their hearts out.

Indeed, Cleveland fans are on edge this week. And that can mean only one thing: LeBron James, Northeast Ohio’s prodigal son, is coming home.

On Thursday night, James returns to a city he captivated for seven seasons to face the Cavaliers, his former team and a franchise he lifted to unimagined heights and almost to an NBA title. But when the 25year-old, wearing a No. 6 Miami Heat jersey, steps onto the floor of Quicken Loans Arena as a visitor, he will be the enemy and the eye of a fierce storm he created.

“I hope he’s safe,” said Oklahoma City’s Kevin Durant. “Just from everything that happened this summer, fans are very upset.”

This homecoming king won’t be crowned or applauded, for sure. Not this time. On Thursday, James will be surrounded — 20,000 against 1.

The same crowd he once thrilled will be outwardly hostile and hateful toward him, but hopefully, harmless. He’ll be booed, taunted and subjected to ridicule beyond his imagination.

“He deserves every bit of it,” said Jim Osherow, a Cavaliers’ season-ticket holder for 36 years. “When you leave a team the way he did, that’s what you got coming. It was rotten what he did. It’s not just that he ruined the fans’ expectations of him, but he ruined this franchise from being able to pick up any other free agents. Then he goes and has his own show? Wrong. Wrong, man.”

James and Cavaliers fans went their sepa-

Section

rate ways in July. Five months later, they’ll meet face to faces with the potential for closure.

No one knows exactly what to expect before, during or after James’ hyped return, a game Cleveland fans first circled on their calendars months ago and a nationally televised event that civic leaders and the NBA trust will not develop into an embarrassment.

Extra security measures have been implemented to prevent trouble and to protect James. The Heat typically distribute the team’s travel itinerary as a courtesy to beat writers covering the team, but did not for the trip to Cleveland, which will begin following Wednesday night’s home game against Detroit.

The Cavaliers, who were James’ caretakers for seven years, are taking extra steps to safeguard the two-time league MVP. There will be uniformed and undercover police officers in the stands, near Miami’s bench and lining the tunnel area leading to the Heat locker room.

Fans will pass through metal detectors — as always when entering The Q — and any purchased beverages will be poured into cups, so plastic bottles can’t be thrown.

Cavaliers owner Dan Gilbert, fined $100,000 for blasting James and accusing him of quitting in the hours after the All-Star announced his intentions to leave, believes fans will react strongly ... but safely.

“I’m sure a lot of them will make their feelings known, but as long as everybody plays by the rules and doesn’t go over the top, everything will be fine,” said Gilbert, who added he has “moved on” from James’ departure. “I really believe that Cleveland people will do the right thing.”

release.

The NCAA said Wednesday that Auburn and NCAA enforcement staff agreed that Newton’s father and an owner of a scouting service worked together on the scheme. The NCAA did not name Rogers.

Auburn has agreed to limit Cecil Newton’s access to its athletic program and Mississippi State has dissociated itself from Rogers, who worked for a sports agent.

“The conduct of Cam Newton’s father and the involved

individual is unacceptable and has no place in the SEC or in intercollegiate athletics,” said Mike Slive, Southeastern Conference Commissioner. “The actions taken by Auburn University and Mississippi State University make it clear this behavior will not be tolerated in the SEC.” It wasn’t immediately clear what access Cecil Newton would have at Auburn, and school officials said they would have no immediate further comment.

The Newtons’ attorney,

George Lawson, told WSBTV of Atlanta on Nov. 18 that he is “1 million percent” certain that Cam Newton did not take any money. Lawson says if Cecil Newton discussed money, his son “knew nothing” about it.

“No money has been offered to Cam Newton. Cam Newton hasn’t asked for any money,” Lawson said in the report. “Cam Newton, Cecil Newton and Jackie Newton have participated in the ongoing NCAA investigation.

They have been truthful and candid with the NCAA.”

McKinley was deep in

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Denver Broncos wide receiver Kenny McKinley had a gambling problem and was deep in debt when he committed suicide on Sept.

21, friends and family told authorities during a probe into his death.

McKinley committed suicide with a gun he had purchased months before from teammate Jabar Gaffney, who told investigators McKinley wanted the weapon for his own protection, according to an investigative report by the Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Department that was obtained by The Associated Press. Arapahoe County Sheriff Grayson Robinson said there was nothing inappropriate about the sale of the gun.

Detectives also determined that McKinley had spoken about suicide with at least three of his friends, including former Broncos backup quarterback Tom Brandstater. Brandstater told investigators he had lent McKinley $65,000 and that McKinley owed $40,000 in casino markers in Las Vegas.

McKinley, 23, suffered a season-ending left knee injury during the first week of Broncos training camp.

He underwent an operation several weeks before he shot himself in the left temple at his rental home near the Broncos’ practice facility.

McKinley had injured the same knee in the Broncos’ next-to-last game in 2009.

The 131-page report, which states the investigation has closed, quoted witnesses as saying McKinley was depressed over his second knee surgery in eight months and was worried about how he would care for his toddler son when his football career was over.

Days before his death, McKinley had been ordered to pay $3,000 a month in child support by a South Carolina court. He had told friends he was being threatened with a paternity suit by another woman who said she was pregnant with his baby, according to the sheriff’s report.

McKinley had missed a South Carolina court hear-

ing in the child support case on Sept. 14.

The Broncos declined to comment on the sheriff’s report out of respect for McKinley’s family.

McKinley’s parents and Brandstater told investigators they had been trying to help him fix his financial problems.

According to investigators, the Broncos were apparently aware of McKinley’s financial troubles.

The team’s player development director, Harold Chatman, had been asked by Brandstater’s representative to hold onto a copy of a contract Brandstater had with McKinley, stating McKinley would repay the $65,000 loan.

The Broncos called it an internal matter. A message was left by the AP on Wednesday with Brandstater, who is now on the Miami Dolphins’ practice squad.

The knee injury was costly financially for McKinley, who signed a four -year, $1.95 million contract with the

Broncos in 2009 after they drafted him in the fifth round out of South Carolina.

The deal included a $200,200 signing bonus, and he made the rookie minimum salary of $310,000 last year. However, he had a split contract, meaning that because he was to spend all of 2010 on injured reserve, he would receive $240,000, instead of $395,000.

There were no guarantees that he’d recover from his second knee operation to earn the $480,000 due him in 2011 or $565,000 in 2012.

McKinley’s agent, Andrew Bondarowicz, told the AP that under NFL players’ association rules he couldn’t get involved with McKinley’s finances and thus could not discuss them.

The sheriff’s report quotes McKinley’s father, Kenneth McKinley, as saying that he and his wife were getting many letters for their son at their home in Mableton, Ga., from casinos in Las Vegas.
