‘PLAY DEAD’ DRAWS ON SEANCES
October 31, 2010
“To support individuals and families challenged by developmental disabilities to discover their unique gifts as they work toward fulfilling their individual life goals and dreams.” So reads Tobosa Developmental Services’ mission statement. Saturday night at the Roswell Convention and Civic Center, with honors, food and dancing, the organization celebrated
both the “exemplary services” it offers to further its mission and all of those individuals and organizations that have made its work possible. Joe Madrid, the organization’s executive director, described the annual event as not only an opportunity to recognize outstanding achievement and Tobosa supporters, but also as “a celebration of a year’s worth of work.” Two hundred community members and Tobosa clients, employees and
board of directors came out for the gala. As for those recognized, Kmart, for its help with employment and fundraising, earned the community Supporter of the Year award, while Larry Hobson, who has lent his auctioneering skills to Tobosa raffles, ear ned the Helping Hand award. Employee of the Year was awarded to Brenda Bachman because of her work maintaining jobs for See TOBOSA, Page A9

ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — The New Mexico Court of Appeals ruled a program intended to speed up the determination of industry, farm and municipal water entitlements is illegal. The appeals court upheld a lower court ruling that the New Mexico Office of State Engineer had overstepped its legal authority with the program. State Engineer John D’Antonio said no decision has been made about whether the state will appeal the decision issued this week. The water rights problem has left a shadow of uncertainty about allocating the scarce resource in arid New Mexico. It can take decades for courts to sort out water rights entitlements in New Mexico river basins. During serious drought, there is no mechanism in many parts

A Halloween graveyard smash
Rockettes dance at Halloween Fest
PRESCOTT VALLEY, Ariz. (AP) — A creepy clown that holds the head of a witch will greet children who ring the doorbell at the home of Los Angeles transplants George and Anne Shelton on Halloween. “I thought my costume was funny until I saw you,” a recorded voice says. The clown is among several grotesque and hideous figures — some with recorded voices and moving body parts — that coexist with the native plants and rocks in the front yard — not to mention the neighbors. Shelton, a neo-expressionist artist who moved to Prescott Valley in 2001 after retiring from the Beverly Hills, Calif., Public Works Department, has expressed himself with Halloween displays for three years. “If you saw my slides, it is very similar to my art,” Shelton said. His art involves taking photographs of photos that he has painted over. Shelton, 69, has assembled a variety of scary characters in his front yard, on his porch and atop his roof, including witches, vampires, clowns, vultures, big spiders, bats, a mummy and a wolf. An old-style road sign near the driveway urges visitors to enter and clap, which sets off his creations. He uses fans and lights to simulate flames. He said he spent a month assembling his displays, and used driftwood that he gathered from Lynx Lake, burlap, a plastic pole and other materials to make the creatures. He bought skulls, wigs and other items from discount stores and thrift shops. Shelton said he made the legs and arms

RPD headquarters needs entire new roof
Roswell Police Department will need an entire new roof. Several contractors went to the RPD to take core samples and bid on repairs. However, their studies revealed the structure under the roof was damp. “It’s been needed,” said RPD Public Infor mation Officer Erica O’Bryon. She pointed to several places on the ceiling where water had seeped all the way through the second floor to the first. “We didn’t realize it was that bad,” said City Clerk Dave Kunko.

The work will also require that air conditioning unit, heater and other equipment be removed before roofing work can begin. Twice in the past, the roof has been patched with applications of tar and gravel. City of Roswell building codes only per mit one application. “Slapping on tar just doesn’t do it,” said Kunko.

of witches from driftwood, and used burlap, cloth and cardboard to build bodies. He uses buttons to make eyes. “What I like about it is kind of an art performance,” Shelton said. “It is like a canvas.” The displays outside the Shelton home have caught the eyes of neighbors and motorists. “I have been coming by for the last couple of years,” Kristy Crosby of Prescott Valley said as she pulled her pickup alongside the Shelton home Wednesday evening. “I know George. It is all homemade. It is all original. I’m waiting for him to dress up and jump out at somebody.” Nadia Welker, 7, and her brother, Aidan, 6, rode their bicycles by Shelton’s Halloween display. Nadia, who has a cochlear implant, held her thumb up to show appreciation. “That means ‘good,”’ Aidan said. Aidan pointed out a skeleton sitting on a bench, but said the displays do not frighten him. Why? “Because it’s not scary,” he said. “It’s just decorations.” Shelton said he will add to the atmosphere on Halloween Sunday by setting up bubble and fog machines, and a stereo playing haunted music. “That attracts kids. They want to play with bubbles,” Shelton said. Shelton said he will greet children on Halloween with a “barrel full of candy.”

Tenants have rights as well as responsibilities
Roswell Daily Record
JESSICA PALMER RECORD STAFF WRITER Roswell is facing a housing crisis, according to Jesse Chavez, community service manager for New Mexico Behavioral Health Collaborative. Quite simply, there is not enough af fordable housing for people on a fixed income or with low to moderate incomes. In a presentation he offers for the Local Collaborative 5 on Homelessness, Chavez states that many people use 80 percent of their income on housing costs alone. Jo Hicks, a paralegal for New Mexico Legal Aid, specializes in housing and benefits. “People have to realize that those people are low income for a reason. Often they have mental disabilities and poor coping skills.” She estimates that 60
percent of the people she sees have mental issues. “They get misinformation from a relative and they act on this misinformation. Their uncle will tell them to withhold the rent until repairs are made, but you can’t withhold the rent,” she said. Not all repairs are required. For example, anything cosmetic, such as new paint, would be considered nice-to-have rather than necessary. Mandatory repairs include wiring, plumbing and structural repairs, like a leaky roof. Any appliances supplied with the residence must be maintained in good working order. Tenants are responsible for any damage they cause. Thus, a window broken in a storm would be the landlord’s responsibility. A window broken by
the tenant would not. Many landlords will not accept HUD. Property manager Vicki Lopez of Century 21 Home Planning said, “People won’t accept HUD because they inspect homes annually, and they expect too much.” HUD requires that landlords maintain their properties at minimum standards. Jared Kallunki, managing attorney for Legal Aid, feels the problem is lack of understanding. “Landlords in Roswell don’t understand their obligations. Most are somebody’s mom and pop who think rental property is an easy way to make a buck.” According to Law Access New Mexico and Housing and Urban Development, repairs are the number one cause of conflict between landlord and ten-
ant. Often the conflict will find its way into court. Hicks described a case where the tenant had gone without hot water for two weeks. The tenant asked to have the water heater replaced and was told, “you are costing me too much,” and was evicted. This is known as a retaliatory eviction. Hicks noted that New Mexico statutes provide that an owner may not retaliate against a resident because the resident has complained to a government agency or exercised his rights to make a complaint to the owner to make repairs. Even a month-to-month tenancy is protected by this law. Any eviction within six months of a requested repair is viewed as retaliatory. “Any action that is intended to make them
strengthen community relations. Taos Police Chief Rick Anglada, who put his department on Facebook and Twitter in January, recently posted a grainy video on YouTube showing a group of young people suspected in a string of burglaries using a bolt cutter on a lock. Anglada hoped the video would help identify them. He’d also like to use YouTube for educational
videos on subjects such as what burglars look for in vehicles. Albuquerque Department of Public Safety spokesman T.J. Wilham said if social media can be used “to get the word out, to let people know instantly what they can do to protect themselves and what they can do to help us fight crime, any police department should do it.” The state Department of Public Safety started its

feel uncomfortable will be construed as retaliatory. Giving a bad reference after the fact is retaliation. A lockout is illegal,” Hicks said. A lockout is defined as changing the locks to a home to deny access, or cutting off utilities. The fines for retaliation are steep. The JEC Benchbook for Magistrate and Metro Court published by the University of New Mexico states that the landlord will owe the tenant two times the monthly rent and damages, which include, but is not limited, to the cost of the move. Retaliation is not limited to landlords, Hicks explained. “The tenant can’t get repairs done and then charge it back to the landlord or deduct it from the rent, without prior written consent.” Tenants have responsi-
bilities, the most important of which is paying the rent. Tenants must keep the property clean, keep the peace and obey the law. Hicks noted that there had been a recent change in the law. “The victims of domestic violence cannot be evicted for anything the spouse did. The mentally ill may do odd things, but even if it makes the other tenants feel uncomfortable, they cannot be evicted unless they break a specific law.” Landlords often know the law, says Hicks, but they don’t care. Her advice for those experiencing difficulties. “Call our of fice or Law Access before you get in trouble. Often when they come here, it’s too late.”
New Mexico police take advantage of Twitter, Facebook
ALBUQUERQUE (AP) — Thousands of people in New Mexico are keeping an eye on the police — through law enforcement postings on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and blogs. Albuquerque Police Chief Ray Schultz says such social media is “taking the wanted poster to the next level” to put extra eyes on the streets and help keep citizens informed. Law enforcement agencies large and small post information on Facebook and send text messages and alerts directly to citizens. Albuquerque’s police chief and the city’s public safety director tweet, or type messages into Twitter. The state Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management
sends tweets on everything from how to assemble an emergency kit to checking smoke alarm batteries. The Santa Fe County sherif f and others run blogs, while some departments put videos on YouTube. In late October, the Alexandria, Va.-based International Association of Chiefs of Police launched the Center for Social Media, a clearinghouse for information to help law enforcement agencies develop or improve the use of social media. The initiative, in partnership with the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Assistance, is aimed at helping law enforcement use new ways of communicating to prevent and solve crimes and

How will New Mexicans vote on Tuesday? A4 Sunday, October 31, 2010
OPINION
SANTA FE — Monday’s date is all zeros and ones. Computer programmers must be celebrating this special day for the binary code. As they say in the business, it’s digitalicious. Speaking of computer folks, they have been having a ball figuring out how we’re going to vote Tuesday. It has some Republicans betting on a landslide. Others are worried that expectations are being raised too high, which could make a narrow victory look like a loss. Another worry is the number of people who have dropped their land lines in favor of cell phones. Those people mainly are young and maybe more likely to vote Democrat. Some polls don’t call cell phone numbers. Could that be skewing these polls toward Republicans? Cell phones or no, the important question is whether these youngsters will turn out to vote. Many of them sound pretty disaffected. Whatever happens, we’re likely

INSIDE THE CAPITOL
to have some big changes. Very likely we’ll have a Republican U.S. House and a Republican New Mexico governor. Changes as big as we’ve seen the past two national elections, and probably this one also, have seldom ever been seen in our nation’s history. Our world is changing fast. Too fast for many. In the past six years both sides of the political spectrum have pleaded to “give us our country back.” Disasters such as 9/11, Katrina and the Gulf oil spill have exposed weaknesses in government. An increasing percentage of Americans and New Mexicans are saying
EDITORIAL
Roswell Daily Record
our country and state are headed in the wrong direction. We have quickly gone from an industrial to a high tech to a global economy with sometimes disastrous effects on jobs. We are becoming a majority minority country. And we’ve been engaged for eight years in two seemingly endless wars. New Mexico has been led the past eight years by a governor who promised bold initiatives. Now that we’ve seen those initiatives, we aren’t so sure we like them. Now we have candidates for governor and Congress promising to change all those recent changes. And most voters are likely to take them up on the deal. Following the 2008 elections, pundits were proclaiming that the Republican Party was dead. Would it ever be able to come back as a viable party, they asked. Soon the same questions will be asked about the Democratic Party. And the correct answer will be yes,
it will come back. Democrats will have Republicans to blame for voter dissatisfactions. It is a never-ending cycle. The difference now is that those cycles have been compressed to the point they are happening every two years. No wonder our heads are spinning. One factor that probably won’t change for New Mexicans this year is election of all Democrats to the down-ballot statewide races — or close to it. You’ve barely heard of the incumbents and you likely never have heard of their Republican challengers — even if you are a Republican. In such a situation, Democrats will almost always vote for the Democrats and Republicans for Republicans. Independents won’t vote. And since half of New Mexico voters are Democrat and only a third are Republicans, the outcome is easy to forecast. The secretary of state race has
received enough media coverage that voters might be able to remember which is Mary Herrera and which is Dianna Duran. The attorney general race includes incumbent Gary King, whose father was governor for most of our lives. His opponent, Matt Chandler, is running TV ads for something — maybe a future race. Ray Powell is running for state land commissioner. Ten years was not enough. Matt Rush has raised more money — but not enough. Auditor Hector Balderas is opposed by Errol Chavez. And treasurer James Lewis, with the longest resume in state government, is opposed by Jim Schoonover. Who? All these offices should be appointive, as they are at the federal level.

Vote
Tuesday is Election Day. If you haven’t already voted, get to the polls on Tuesday and vote. You not only owe it to yourself, but to all the people in our nation’s history who have sacrificed so much to ensure we live in a free country. Around the world — throughout history and up to the present day — there are people who have absolutely no say regarding the leadership of their national or local governments. We are lucky to live in a time and place which allows the citizenry to elect its leadership. This is a right our forefathers paid dearly to establish and retain and should not be taken for granted. On Tuesday we will be selecting our leaders at the federal, state and county level. Keeping track of all the candidates can be difficult, but it’s important that voters take the time to learn all they can and elect the people who will do the best job. At the national level, we’ll be selecting members of the U.S. House. Since the 2008 elections Congress and the president have made a lot of changes. It falls on the voters to let Washington know if this country supports or is opposed to the direction our leaders are heading. At the state level, we’ll be electing New Mexico’s first female governor. Whether it will be a Democrat or Republican is up to us. We’ll also be selecting a lot of state officials who will have an impact on our daily lives. Locally, we’ll be selecting legislators to represent us in Santa Fe as well a number of county officials. At the heart of our nation’s founding principles was the recognition of equality. The definition of equality has changed as our country has evolved, and at long last we truly live in a land where all citizens have an equal say when it comes to selecting our leaders. Of all our liberties guaranteed by the Constitution, it is our right to vote which best defines the soul of our country.

School support appreciated
Dear Editor: On behalf of Missouri Avenue School, I would like to thank the following people who gave of their time to make the Pancake Breakfast at Applebees a success: The staff, both past and present, the administration and the PTA of Missouri Avenue Elementary School, the Dolen family and committee members of the Save the Missouri Ave. murals effort. In addition, I would like to thank the customers who came to enjoy a good meal and in doing so, supported this fund raising event. Duane Evans Roswell
DEAR DR. GOTT: With no access to a suspected birth father for DNA testing, how can it be proved who someone’s father is? Testing with siblings is not an option. If a person has access to a suspected birth father’s blood relatives, could a test be conducted with them to prove paternity? If so, what is the test called? Which relatives would be the best to test? Would we need a doctor’s order? How much would the test cost? Is there a special facility other than a hospital that could perform the test? Any advice you have would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. DEAR READER: Paternity,
What Republicans must do to return to power
The great “what-if” looks like it is about to happen. With all of the media attention focused on Tuesday’s midterm election, Republicans are faced with a greater task than winning a majority in the House of Representatives or getting at least close enough to a majority that they will be able to halt or slow the Obama agenda. And come Wednesday, Republicans could either suffer the political equivalent of a mor ning-after hangover or find themselves in a position to do more than just say “no” to the administration’s policies.

to the best of my knowledge, is best proven with the father’s DNA; however, there is a test known as the grandparentage test that can prove whether the individual is related to the suspected birth father’s family. If there is only one son, then it is proof, but issues arise if there is more than one son because

the test cannot differentiate between them to determine which one is the father. It can, at least, establish some grounds. There are other tests, such as sibling tests, that can be used to determine whether two individuals are siblings, and if one has an established paternity, it can be used as proof of pater nity for the other. As for the cost of testing, it depends on the type of test used, the laboratory and other factors, such as whether there is more than one potential father.

What tensions do you have in your life? OPINION II
Roswell Daily Record
Tension is good. It is important that each of us have some. If you are living a life without tension, you probably aren’t accomplishing much with your life. You see, without tension, there is not much to life. If you went out to see a movie and the movie does not have tension at any point in the movie, it is probably not a movie that you would want to see. Think of your favorite television show. The writer wr ote tension into it. Every sporting event you attend has tension. Just driving your car into town will likely create tension for you and the vehicles around you. My wife Tanya and I went to a conference earlier this month in Atlanta. The title of the conference was “Tension is Good.” We heard 13 speakers over two days share their thoughts on a broad array of topics mostly directed at tension in our lives. There are areas in our lives that we don’t desire tension, then there are areas in our lives that tension should never leave. We need to recognize the areas of tension as such and not worry about the fact that ten-

be outsourced to the private sector to see if it can do a better job at less cost. America used to be a nation that celebrated inventors and the inventive. Today we penalize the productive and subsidize the nonproductive and get more of what we don’t need and less of what we require. The key for Republicans is to not allow Democrats and their big media allies to set the table. Too often the standard has been to highlight what Democrats propose and what Republicans oppose. That template needs to change. Republicans, if they are smart (and this will require some proof) must seize the agenda and demonstrate how and why their ideas are superior to the Democrats’ entitlement and spread-the-wealtharound philosophy. They can do this by going after the Democrat-

sion exists. For example, there has never existed a marriage without tension. Even after 26 years of being married to my best friend, Tanya and I still work through tension regularly. Parenting is packed with tension. Have you ever felt the battle between loving your child and disciplining him or her? Have you ever felt the struggle between doing things for your child and expecting your child to do things for himself or herself? What I am saying is that if you are a parent of a child and you have no tension, then you are probably doing things wrong. What we need to remember in these situations is that the battle that leads to tension is a good one. If, as parents, you never discipline your child, your child may run in front of a mov-
s’ base, starting with African-Americans. should Republicans introduce themselves to African-Americans, listen to them explain their hopes and aspirations and then help them achieve those hopes and dreams by employing Republican principles. For mer Speaker Newt Gingrich says the election is about food stamps vs. paychecks. Republicans can show the poor how to get off the former and start earning the latter. Playing against “type” will disar m Democrats and critics in the media. What are they going to say, “You can’t help poor African-Americans because we would rather they remain poor”? Newly elected members of Congress should bring their own staffs to Washington instead of the usual practice of employing existing staf f.

ing car or put his hand on a hot stove burner. If as parents you over discipline your child, your child may wake up each morning fearing you and the world. If you do everything for your child, he or she will become dependant on you and will not be prepared when it is time to leave the nest. If you don’t help your child at all, he or she may fail out of frustration and never try again. How do you handle tension in your life? In the situation of tension within a family, your level of commitment will determine if you can work through the tension of the relationship. If you decide that giving up is not an option with a child or children, you will fight to work through the tension. We shouldn’t live our lives seeking to create tension, but, in recognizing its existence, we must live our lives learning how to manage tension. Your ability to manage tension will determine the quality of life that you will experience. We should welcome good tension and use it to fly higher and to accomplish more in the lives we live.
coming GOP success is not a victory of party, but of philosophy. It is the tea party movement that is making it possible for Republicans to regain power. If party leaders in and out of Congress try to quell passions and put out the fire that is burning in so many bellies, they will deservedly lose everything in 2012. If the Republican Party stokes those flames and adopts a positive and workable strategy, not just to dismantle the Obama agenda, but to establish a new one of smaller, more effective and less costly government, accompanied by a commitment to personal responsibility and accountability, this election wave will become a tsunami two Novembers from now.

How should we handle bad tension? Unhealthy tension can cause a person much greater problems in the area of health or even cause conditions that lead to death. Another wor d sometimes used for tension is “str ess.” Many studies have shown that a significantly high percentage of health problems that people experience are stress related. Bad tension is a form of tension that regularly occurs in relationships that cause both sides to be impacted negatively through the relationship. It generally comes from poor communication. It often occurs when individuals or organizations solely look at the world from their own perspective with no consideration for the other’s view of the world. Open communication between the two sides may not correct the communication issue or end the tension, but it should reduce the tension by better understanding the other side. My challenge to you today is to recognize the role tension plays in your life. If there is no tension in your life, you may as well pass on. Seek the tension

She suffered for about a year and saw several dentists and doctors without help. One day, I noticed my mouth started burning.

This tension may push you way outside your comfort zone, but, done right, it will make this world a better place and will cause growth for you. If you are riddled with negative tension, find a way to minimize or eliminate the tension that is taking life fr om you. Schedule an opportunity to work through communication issues, change your way of seeing the world, or change what your life is involved in. It will add years to your life.

Questions about candidates
Dear Editor: As the election nears, I have been diligently trying to select the people I will vote for on Nov. 2, 2010. As I have no personal knowledge of these folks, I have been watching their advertisements to help in making this important decision. I am still slightly confused. To indicate the problem, I will use only those ads for the governor’s race. As far as I can tell from these ads, both of these women will lie for personal gain. They have both stolen taxpayers’ money. They are both corrupt. Both of their families are corrupt. Worst of all, neither of them seem to have a clue as to the needs of the wageearners in our great state. Finally, both are spending millions of dollars to get a job that only pays thousands. If they are foolish enough to spend their own money, they are obviously unfit to handle the finances of our state. If they are spending other folk’s money, what do those folks expect in return? With shenanigans like this, is it any wonder that folks don’t trust the government? Yours, Hal B. Clark Roswell

Praise for Ortega
Dear Editor: It gives me great pleasure to recognize an outstanding member of your parish community, Eloy Ortega, who has been nominated by Father Juan Antonio Gutierrez to receive the Bishop’s Instrumento de Paz Award for St. John’s Parish in Roswell. This award was created for the purpose of honoring the dedicated service of exceptional lay persons to their communities. Father Gutierrez nominated Mr. Ortega because “he has donated his time and service for the past three years in building a multi-religious center for our parishioners and their needs. He is very deserving of this award.” Please join me in congratulating and honoring Eloy Ortega’s service to your community. I am grateful to him and to all of you who dedicate yourselves to fulfilling the mission of Jesus Christ in your community. May God continue to bless you with such wonderful volunteers for many years to come. Ricardo Ramirez, C.S.B. Bishop of Las Cruces
Political mudslinging
Dear Editor: The Republican hierarchy in Albuquerque, in a mass mailing to Chaves County, has made allegations about Michael Trujillo, candidate for our County Commission, which are false. Mike is a small-business owner and employer who is keenly aware of the need for jobs, and Mike put his life on the line in Iraq.

Too much money for military
Roswell Daily Record
Dear Editor: When citizens are poor and uneducated it’s easy to manipulate them using fear. Lawmakers kept pushing the idea that the U.S. had to have the largest most powerful army in the world. So Americans spent massive amounts of their budgets on the military. One previous estimate showed about one third of the entire U.S. budget went to care for the current and past military! It also showed that the U.S. spending equals the next 15 nations combined! Can your mind grasp those numbers? More recently, the paper reported that China has tripled its military spending in the last 10 years from about $33 billion to $100 billion. The U.S. budget this year is said to be 617 billion! And believe me when I say that’s not even close to the real amount. So when I saw the letter from Delma Craig (Oct. 7) I was not surprised. “Here we go again,” I thought. It’s time to scare everyone that we’re “unprotected” and “Obama is not protecting us.” Well here is a reality check fact: The most sophisticated, technologically advanced, powerful, super army in the world is getting their butts kicked by a small group of poorly equipped, poorly trained, mostly unpaid, loosely organized, illiterate goat herders! They are going to win and they’re going to do it without aircraft carriers, and without drones, stealth bombers, night vision equipment, submarines, nuclear arsenals and computers. How do you like that? Do you think your tax dollars made you safe, or successful? Or do you think some defense contractor is laughing his head off right now? Why do you think Germany and Japan became economic superpowers? It’s because they lost the war and were not allowed to spend (or should I say waste) money building up a large military. So while they were building factories and infrastructure and universities, the U.S. was building missile silos that they would never use! You may say that they were needed as a deterrent. But that need is over. Now a terrorist can attack anywhere and organize that attack from any country. I guess that big, nuclear aircraft carrier won’t be much help then. Hasn’t it occurred to anyone that other large countries that don’t have massive armies don’t worry about being “unprotected.” Isn’t that one of the reasons countries join the U.N.? Did the U.S. become richer by having the largest army in the world? People today see China as a threat and it’s strange to think that China has to lend the U.S. money to operate their military. They could literally defeat the U.S. without firing a single shot. They would just have to stop lending them money. Randall Stinson
Mine rescue
“That’s our road commissioner lookin’ fer votes, let’s act like we don’t see him!” Roswell
Dear Editor: I spent three of my 20 years in the Army assigned to a special forces group which operated throughout Latin America. Hispanic culture, history and its people continue to fascinate me to this day. Like many Americans and others around the world, I’ve spent the last several hours glued to the TV, watching the rescue of the miners in Chile. This spectacle of tragedy and joy has really gripped me. With so much evil in the world, so much hatred and senseless conflict, it’s good to be reminded now and then that there are still lots of good people in the world making good things happen in bad times, never give up hope!

GOP flyers false
Dear Editor: This letter is to respond to a political flyer published by the Republican Party of New Mexico, Bill Redmond, Treasurer, concerning Michael Trujillo. In this invective, Michael is accused of raising the gross receipts tax by millions of dollars costing us jobs. What’s wrong with this picture? First of all, in the latest year in which figures are available, the total general sales and gross receipts tax revenues were $1,990,000. Would someone please explain to me how Michael could have raised these taxes by millions of dollars when the total is less than two million? Next, the Chaves County Commission is composed of five members, four are Republicans; one member, Michael Trujillo, is a Democrat. Michael could not raise taxes without the support of at least two Republicans. He could be overruled by three of the Republicans on the commission. Michael Trujillo has served our country as an active duty member of the National Guard in Iraq. He put himself in harm’s way for us. He built a local business that has created jobs in this county. He has served his community in numerous ways. He does not deserve this invective by the Republican Party. I hope that the chair of the Republican Party of New Mexico and the chair of the Republican Party of Chaves County will publically apologize to Michael before the election for these slanders. He deserves no less. Charles A. Berry Roswell
Trujillo man of character
Dear Editor: Although every race in Chaves County is important to the public, the one that stands out to me as being critical is the race Michael Trujillo is running against his Republican opponent for District 58. Most of us know Michael Trujillo as a man of integrity, a man of strong family values, a man who has served his country honorably, and a man of the people. This past week his opponent launched a vicious and deceptive attack on Michael with only two weeks left till the
election. Michael has refused to be negative. He is running on his record. Once again he shows himself as a man of character. Political opponents do this because by the time anyone finds out the truth the election is over and the damage is done. They do this because their own record is too weak to run on. This should serve as a lesson to all of us. It is exactly this kind of deceptive mind set we must stand up to. We should be outraged by this. Our resolve as citizens of Chaves County should be stronger than ever. Every one of us should be calling and urging people to get out and vote, and vote against this type of hypocrisy. If we, as citizens regardless of party affiliation, don’t stand together and fight these malicious attacks, then we’ll fall for anything. Very truly yours, Fred Moran
Drugs destroy lives
Dear Editor: I had to reply to the letter in today’s paper titled “Cops nab grandma.” Mr. Wolfert, do you think just because the lady was a grandma she was above the law? Do you know how much $3,000 worth of meth is? Do you have any idea the damage that stuff does not only to the user but to everyone that loves or cares about them. All I have to say to the law enforcement personnel involved in grandma’s conviction is congratulations for a job well done. Mr. Wolfert and anyone else who has a problem with such a conviction, you need to speak up in such a negative matter after you have had a loved one using the stuff. You can’t begin to imagine the fear and heartache that you live through when you see what it does to a person. There is no good reason for anyone to make or sale meth or any other kind of drug. All it does is destroy lives and kills. It destroys whole families not just individuals and somewhere down the line someone is going to be killed because of that drug. The money made from making, dealing, or transporting drugs is nothing but blood money. Someone is going to die because of those drugs and too many times it is an innocent person who is at the wrong place at the wrong time. How can you stand up for or condone grandma’s action? I will pray for you and all the others that are so blind to the drug situation. I will also pray you never experience the heartache of having a loved one addicted to drugs of any kind.

Protect yourself from card fraud Roswell Daily Record
This week’s Roswell SAFE Coalition Safety Column is brought to you by Chaves County School Employees Credit Union and the Roswell SAFE Coalition. As the holidays approach, the public will likely use ATM machines more than usual, and you can be assured that the criminals out there are beefing up their abilities to steal from you as well. Some are quite sophisticated and utilize “skimmers,” which are devices to capture information from the magnetic stripe on credit or debit cards. Here are some tips for protecting your credit and debit cards: • Keep your contact information up to date with your financial institution. Your bank can’t ask you about a suspicious charge unless it has your current phone number. • Make a note of the customer service phone number from the back of each of your debit or credit cards and keep this list in a separate location from your purse or wallet. • Let issuers know if you are travelling, especially to destinations not common to your nor mal activity. Card issuers may decline to honor transactions which are unusual and appear to be suspicious. • Sign up for banking alerts if they are offered by your financial institution. These will inform you when irregular card activity or other particular changes occur. • Stay away from ATMs that appear dirty or in disrepair. They may not work when you use them, or at worst, may be fake machines set up to capture card information. • Do not use ATMs with unusual signage, such as a command to enter your PIN twice to complete a transaction. • Watch out for ATMs that appear to have been altered. If anything on the front of the machine looks
VISTAS POLICY
crooked, loose or damaged, it could be a sign that someone attached a skimming device. • Don’t use an ATM if suspicious individuals are standing around. Criminals may try to distract you as you use the machine to steal your cash, or watch as you type your PIN. • Be aware that if your card gets stuck in the machine and someone approaches to help, it may be a scam. A criminal may be trying to watch as you enter your PIN code. • If your card gets stuck in the machine, call your financial institution promptly to report the incident. • As you key in your PIN, cover the keypad with your other hand to block anyone, or a camera, from viewing the numbers you type. Remember to check your balance on a regular basis. Federal law doesn't protect debit cards to the same degree as credit cards when it comes to fraud. If you notify the bank within two days of discovering the card was lost or stolen, your loss is limited to $50. After two days, this amount jumps to $500, and after 60 days of receiving the statement with the fraudulent charges, your loss may be unlimited.

Learn your way around the milk case BY JIM ROMANOFF FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS When it comes to milk, cows seem practically passe. Grocers these days are jammed with milks made from almonds, rice, hazelnuts, cashews and — of course — soy beans. The trick to enjoying these beverages is to match the best variety with how you plan to use it. In general, you’ll get the smoothest, most dairy milk-like flavor from soy, which is low in fat. Producers have been making it — and trying to make it similar to dairy milk — for a long time. Plain varieties can have a bit of a soy flavor, which some people dislike. But this often isn’t the case with flavored soy milks, such as vanilla. Milks made from almonds, hazelnuts and cashews will have a rich flavor and thick texture, as well as a pleasantly nutty taste. Rice milks tend to be a bit thinner than soy or nut milks and have a slightly sweet-
er flavor. Regardless of what they are made from, most non-dairy milks are available in a variety of flavors, including plain, vanilla and chocolate. When using these milks in baking or other sweets, vanilla is ideal, as these tend to have the creamiest flavor. But for savory recipes — such as a creamy soup — stick with plain (and, ideally, unsweetened). This basmati-almond rice pudding with mango uses a vanilla flavored almond milk both for its nutty flavor and its sweetness. No additional sugar is required for the recipe. ——— Basmati-almond rice pudding with mango Start to finish: 50 minutes Servings: 8 1 1/2 cups water 3/4 cup white basmati rice 1 teaspoon kosher salt 4 1/2 cups vanilla flavored

Cover and simmer over very low heat, stirring occasionally so the rice doesn’t stick, until most of the water is absorbed, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in 3 1/2 cups of the almond milk, the cardamom and mango. Increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is very soft and most of the milk is absorbed, 25 to 30 minutes. In a bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 cup of the almond milk and the cornstarch. Whisk the mixture into the pudding. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.

manage water in New Mexico next year if a forecast drought comes to pass. It leaves the state without the tools to determine who has high-priority water rights, and whose lower priority water rights might need to be curtailed if there is a water shortage, D’Antonio said. The ruling invalidates a program begun after the Legislature decided in 2003 that existing methods for determining water entitlements were too slow. 1,558 Democrats and 381 registered in other parties. The county has 31,275 total registered voters, however the county’s system has not been purged since 2007 and of ficials say that the actual number is likely between 2,000 and 3,000 fewer than that figure.

OKLAHOMA DOWNS COLORADO
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Ryan Broyles broke the school record with 208 yards receiving as part of the biggest passing day in Oklahoma history, and the 11th-ranked Sooners bounced back from their first loss of the season to beat Colorado 43-10 on Saturday night. Landry Jones threw for a career-high 453 yards and four touchdowns, including three to Broyles. Jones’ total was the second-best in school history, behind only Sam Bradford’s 468 against Kansas in his 2008 Heisman Trophy season. When combined with backup Drew Allen’s 35 yards, the Sooners (7-1, 3-1 Big 12) broke the school record for passing set on Bradford’s biggest day. Colorado (3-5, 0-4) kept it close for a quarter before losing its 15th straight road game and its 11th conference game in a row.

KEVIN J. KELLER RECORD SPORTS EDITOR
Going into Saturday’s home match against Midland College, the New Mexico Military Institute volleyball team was in control of its own destiny when it came to the Western Junior College Athletic Conference standings. With a win over the Chaps, then a win over Frank Phillips College on Monday, the Broncos could have forged a three-way tie atop the conference standings. And three games into Saturday’s match, it looked as though NMMI was well on its way to completing the first part of that. Then the error bug bit NMMI. The Broncos lost Game 4 and Game 5 and fell 3-2 to the Chaps. “That’s the story of our season. We beat ourselves,” Bronco coach Shelby Fortchner said after the game. “There’s not a whole lot of teams that have been able to step on the floor with us and just completely take over and dominate us. “We do it to ourselves. It’s been our receiving errors and serving errors all year long.” Leading 2-1 after winning back-to-back games, the errors started to haunt the Broncos in Game 4. After NMMI took an 8-5 lead in that game, a pair of service errors spurred the Chaps to a 10-9 lead. From that point, NMMI would lead just once, at 16-15, in the
game and Midland pushed its way to a 25-23 win. After going down 16-15, the Chaps rattled off six straight points and led 2116 when Sawyer Schaedig delivered an ace. NMMI rallied to within two on three different occasions and briefly had its deficit down to one with a kill by Ashton Garretson. However, Gabrielle Miller’s serve on the next point went deep and put Midland at game point. The Broncos
won the next point to make it 24-23, but a tip from Jordan Latham gave the Chaps the game and knotted the match at two games apiece. Midland took control from the outset in Game 5, winning eight of the first 10 points — with three of the points coming thanks to Bronco errors — for an 8-2 lead. NMMI rallied, though, by winning five of the next six to make it 9-7. The two teams then traded the next
three before NMMI won back-to-back points to cut the Midland lead down to 11-10. That’s as close as NMMI would get. The second NMMI service error of the game — and the 14th of the match — came on the next point to make it 12-10. The Chaps then won three of the next four to close out the match. “Game 1, we can’t pass the ball to save our life and, Game 2, every pass is to tar-
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Hey, you Longhorns, Aggies and Horned Frogs. Colby Lewis and the Texas Rangers threw the biggest tailgate party of them all, beating San Francisco 4-2 on Saturday night and cutting the Giants’ edge in the World Series to 2-1. Rookie Mitch Moreland hit an early three-run homer, Josh Hamilton later launched a 426-foot shot and the Rangers became the first team from Texas to win a Series game. Game 3 marked the first time the Series visited the Metroplex. On a college football weekend, the parking lots filled up early with flying pigskins and fine BBQ smoke. But Lewis and the Rangers showed there was
still a place in the Lone Star State for baseball, too. And they certainly brought more joy than the Cowboys, whose gleaming stadium is just a few Hamilton-sized drives. Big Tex himself, Nolan Ryan, got former President George W. Bush and the rest of the sellout crowd jazzed when he cranked up for the ceremonial first toss. The Rangers’ part-owner brought his heater — at 68 mph, pretty swift for a 63year-old guy wearing dress pants and a tie. Then it was time for Lewis to take over. He worked around solo home runs by Cody Ross in the seventh inning and Andres Torres in the eighth. The Giants eventually brought the tying run to the plate, but reliever
Darren O’Day retired Buster Posey to end the eighth. Texas manager Ron Washington finally brought in Neftali Feliz in the ninth, and the rocket-armed closer earned his first save of the postseason. Washington was criticized in the first two games at San Francisco for leaving Feliz in the bullpen while the Giants broke away. No team in World Series history has overcome a 3-0 deficit and now Texas won’t have to try, either. Rangers starter Tommy Hunter, especially good at home, faces rookie Madison Bumgarner in Game 4 on Sunday night. Lewis picked up where he left off in the AL championship series, where he finished off the defending
champion Yankees in Game 6. Lewis allowed five hits in 7 2-3 innings and struck out six. He stopped a Giants team that had become the first NL team to score at least nine runs in back-toback Series game. The Rangers looked more like themselves with Vladimir Guerrero back in the DH spot. Moreland, promoted to the majors in late July, won a tough at-bat against Jonathan Sanchez with a three-run homer in the second on the ninth pitch. Feliz stuck out two in a perfect ninth, setting off a big celebration. Bush leaned over and kissed Ryan’s wife as fireworks exploded over-

get. We’re just an up and down roller coaster,” Fortchner said. “That comes with the territory of having 10 freshmen and just trying to get the sophomore leadership out there, talking and communicating more than they are.” Despite the loss, there were positives for the Broncos, particularly the play of freshman Agatha Gibbins, who had 11 kills and five

RECORD STAFF REPORT
LEVELLAND, Texas — Three NMMI runners competed in the NJCAA Region V Championships on Saturday. The Broncos top finisher was Fanny Farfan who placed 11th with a time of 19 minutes and 30 seconds. There were 35 total competitors. “Fanny ran very good,” NMMI coach Jan Olesinski said. “She runs better and better every race, She’s a freshman and has never run before.” Iwona Czerniak took home 14th with a time of 19:48 and Kelly Whalen ran a 22:34, which placed her 27th. All three runners have been invited to the NJCAA National Championships November 13, at Spartanburg, S.C. “Last year, Iwona was 26th at the championship,” Olesinski said. “She was injured for six months, so she is almost caught up to where she was. I believe another two weeks, she’ll be better by 10 to 15 seconds. Fanny is just a freshman, so that will be another good experience for her.”

blocks on the day. That wasn’t the case before Game 2, which is when Gibbins really came alive at the net. And that spark stemmed directly from a Fortchner pep “talk” during a timeout. NMMI led 18-12, but the Chaps won four straight,
with the final coming on a block by Karolina Sawaniewicz off an attack by Gibbins. Fortchner called a timeout and lit into Gibbins in the huddle. “A lot of hers is just confidence,” Fortchner said about what she said to Gibbins. “You really just have to say, ‘Agatha, you’re 6-foot-1, you have huge monkey arms, just press them over

the net instead of being abused and letting someone abuse you.’ “Whenever you say it like that, in a little louder octave, she gets all fired up because she’s got that hunger deep down inside of her. So she just went out there and did it.” And did it she did. She had kills on two of the next four points, then a kill to put NMMI at game point
and a block on an attack from Sawaniewicz to secure the win in Game 2. NMMI then won Game 3 25-19 to go up 2-1. The Broncos have just one regular season match, against Frank Phillips at home, left before the NJCAA Region V tournament. And Fortchner doesn’t think the Broncos have peaked just yet. “We haven’t peaked yet.
That’s the awesome part about our team,” she said. “We’ve seen really, really good matches in us, but I don’t think we’ve seen our best. “We’re very close (to peaking). If we could just collectively do everything like we’re supposed to, from first point to last point, then we would be the team that’s really hard to beat.” kjkeller@roswell-record.com

Jaguars could use a lift; Cowboys could provide it Roswell Daily Record
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Their playoff hopes all but gone, the Dallas Cowboys still can prove some things the rest of this season. By continuing to play hard after a 1-5 start and while missing injured quarterback Tony Romo, they could show that they care. That, better late than never, they can stop making costly mistakes. That coach Wade
Phillips isn’t too soft, that offensive coordinator Jason Garrett does know what he’s doing. Then again, it’s not like the Cowboys are going to sneak up on anyone. If anything, their upcoming foes are probably giddy about kicking them while they’re down. The Jacksonville Jaguars are a perfect example. Jacksonville (3-4) visits
Dallas on Sunday looking for some healing of its own after losing the last two games by 22 and 27 points. The Jags could use a moodlifter going into their bye and beating the heavily hyped Cowboys in their $1.2 billion stadium could be a perfect remedy. For guys who feed off negative motivation, they can think about being the team that loses to a creaky Dallas club now led

by 38-year-old Jon Kitna. “It’s going to be two teams that are going to be feeling desperate, where they got to get a win,” Jaguars quarterback David Garrard said. “We can’t worry about the issues they’re having, we got to worry about what we’re doing.” Kitna likely will have the job for six to eight weeks while Romo’s broken left collarbone heals. Don’t be surprised if he has the job the rest of the season. Either the losses will continue to pile up and there will be no reason for Romo to risk another injury, or he’ll be playing so great the Cowboys will want to continue riding it out. Kitna hasn’t started a game since 2008, hasn’t won since 2007 and is 1-11 in his last dozen starts. But he spent 21 games getting familiar with the Cowboys’ system and players, and he’s as fresh as he is going to be the rest of the season. He’s even got a little momentum built up — two touchdowns in the final 3:17 against New York on Monday night. (OK, so the Giants were up by 18 and probably not trying their hardest. But, still ...) “Guys in this locker room know you have to be a professional each week and approach it like that and do
Ducks hold off pesky Trojans, 53-32
LOS ANGELES (AP) — LaMichael James rushed for 239 yards and three Darron touchdowns, Thomas threw three of his four scoring passes to Jeff Maehl and No. 1 Oregon roared back from a secondhalf deficit with a 53-32 victory over No. 24 Southern California on Saturday night. Thomas passed for 288 yards and Maehl had eight catches for a career -high 145 yards for the high-powered Ducks (8-0, 4-0 Pac10), who racked up 599 total yards in yet another barn-burning offensive performance. Oregon still trailed in the third quarter for just the second time all season after USC scored two touchdowns in 2 1/2 minutes to take a 32-29 lead, but James led the Ducks to 24 consecutive points to close their first win at the Coliseum since 2000. Matt Barkley passed for 263 yards and Marc Tyler rushed for two scores for the Trojans (5-3, 2-3), who used trickery and big defensive plays to stay competitive until the third quarter. “We have a tendency to wear people down,” Oregon coach Chip Kelly said. “I’m not into statements. I’m just into winning games.”

The role reversal atop the Pac-10 is essentially complete with this victory for the Ducks, who toiled for much of the past decade in the shadow of USC’s seven consecutive conference titles. Oregon shoved its way into the Rose Bowl last
season after a 27-point win over USC on Halloween night, and these speedy Ducks finally outran the probation-afflicted Trojans in the rematch. Despite a vibrant homecoming crowd cheering on its underdog Trojans, USC
lost at the Coliseum for the fourth time in seven games. Ronald Johnson caught a TD pass while making a handful of big specialteams plays for the T rojans, and freshman Robert Woods had seven receptions in what’s likely to be the biggest game of USC’s bowl-less season under NCAA sanctions. Lavasier Tuinei had seven catches for 78 yards and a score for the Ducks, who are likely to keep the first No. 1 ranking in school history for a third straight week and hold on to second place in the BCS standings behind Auburn. They’re four games away from a perfect regular season, with Arizona the only ranked team left on their schedule. After a slow start, James rolled to his third 200-yard game of the season. Maehl had a juggling, one-handed TD catch during his career day, and Thomas shook off a few early mistakes to go 19 for 32 with three TD throws of at least 30 yards. USC thought it still had a shot early in the third quarter. Defensive lineman Jurrell Casey intercepted a tipped pass on Oregon’s opening drive of the second half, and the Trojans swiftly drove for Johnson’s short TD catch just 1:17 in.

your job,” Kitna said. “We have 10 weeks left in this season, but the most important thing is that we need to stop the bleeding, so to speak, and get a win as soon as possible. That would be this week.” The blueprint for stopping the bleeding against the Giants was to get more turnovers, commit fewer penalties and improve on special teams. Well, the Cowboys did it all — getting five turnovers after having four all season, totaling a season-low five penalties and sparkling on special teams (93-yard punt return for a TD, 41-yard punt return and the longest return they allowed was 16 on a kickoff, 12 on a punt). And they still were down by 18 in the final minutes. “They just haven’t made
Don’t Forget the Ice
the plays when they’ve had to make them,” said Troy Aikman, the former Cowboys star turned Fox analyst. “That’s what separates them from a lot of the other teams. Good teams generally make those plays or at least make your share of them, and they haven’t really made any.” Both teams would love to get their running games going. The Cowboys are averaging 86 yards per game, near the bottom of the NFL. They had only 13 attempts in the last game (four by starterin-name-only Marion Barber and nine by new main man Felix Jones) and will need far more to help ease the load on Kitna. It also would help keep the clock running while their defense is resting on the sideline.

Favre dares Childress to break ‘The Streak’
Underwhelming, under investigation and now hobbled by a bum ankle, Brett Favre is either the toughest sonofagun ever to play football or simply the most self-absorbed. Either way, he’s daring Vikings coach Brad Childress to risk a mutiny by sitting him down Sunday against the Patriots. Favre hasn’t said as much, at least not directly, about what is expected to be a gametime decision. His latest dispatch, sent to ESPN.com on Saturday afternoon, was that his injuries had healed significantly and that he expected to start. Then again, Favre hardly has to plead his case. His name has turned up on the NFL’s weekly injury list nearly four dozen times over the last decade — with ailments stretching from the top of his head to the tips of his toes — and every one of his coaches over that span has given him the benefit of the doubt. That’s how the most venerated streak in sports reached 291 consecutive regular-season starts. The number is so daunting that even if Childress holds him out Sunday against New England, Favre’s closest pursuer, Colts quarterback Peyton Manning, couldn’t equal it until the third game of the 2016 season. Small wonder Favre’s reputation for playing hurt has reached almost-mythic proportions and won him the unquestioned loyalty of teammates everywhere he’s played. “It’s going to take the sky to fall for him not to go out there,” said Minnesota tight end Visanthe Shiancoe, “because he’s a fighter.” Favre has done nothing to discourage that notion. If anything, he’s embellished it. “I’ve always had a knack for healing, I think, quicker than maybe most people,” Favre said earlier this week. “I’ve been able to play with different types of injuries that probably most people wouldn’t have attempted.” Yet none of those other coaches had more to lose by benching Favre than Childress. His team is 2-4 and fast fading from playoff contention as the quarterback struggles through one of his most unproductive starts ever. Making matters worse, the Vikings were a popular preseason Super Bowl pick just months
after losing the NFC championship in New Orleans, when another risky Favre gambit at the end of regulation failed. Despite clashing more than once over how the Vikings offense should be run, it was Childress who doubled down. He dispatched three of Minnesota’s team leaders to Mississippi during the offseason to persuade Favre to return, and may have ceded control of his locker room along the way. Last year at Carolina, cameras caught the two barking at each other over Childress’ decision to yank Favre from the game. But in a telling sign, Favre simply refused to come out. One measure of how tense the situation has grown came after last week’s loss at Green Bay, when Childress uncharacteristically called out his quarterback. The latest came Friday after practice, when Childress was asked to assess Favre’s mobility. “Better than an iron deer on the lawn,” he said tersely. Childress describes himself as “a flat-line guy,” but there’s no doubt he’s feeling the pressure. He’s thick-skinned and understated in the way tough guys from the Midwest are, but unyielding when he thinks he’s right. Yet Childress has afforded Favre more leeway than any other quarterback who ran his

head. At a burly 6-foot-4, Lewis is built something like a fullback. He sure scored big for the Lone Star State in this one. Lewis is a below-.500 pitcher for his career, not including the two seasons he recently spent pitching for Hiroshima in the Japan league. Despite a shaky record, he’s known for this trait: He gets tougher in tight situations. Lewis escaped a two-on jam in the first by getting Pat Burrell to fish for a breaking ball, and worked around a leadoff walk to Ross in the second. The next time he got on the mound, he already had a nice cushion. Nelson Cruz opened the Texas second with a double off the center-field wall and eighth-place hit-

offense and bankrolled a five-year contract extension based largely on the results of last season. So far this season, he’s had to earn every penny. Childress knows exactly how much Favre values the streak and by contrast, how much of a gamble replacing him with unproven backup Tarvaris Jackson would be.

ter Bengie Molina drew a walk. It was trouble time for Sanchez — he owned the best hits-to-innings ratio in the NL this year, yet also led the league in walks and can unravel quickly. Moreland hung in, fouling off four straight 22 pitches and barely getting a piece on a couple of them. He then took a smooth swing that sent a liner far into the rightfield seats for his first career home run against a left-hander. It was the big hit the Rangers needed to get back into the Series. The crowd roared and Ryan stood up, thrust his right arm in the air and hollered. Hamilton gave his boss another thrill in the fifth. A bit jumpy at the plate early in the game, the probable AL MVP patiently waited for his pitch and launched a drive deep into the lower deck in right-center field.

Sharon Glenn Jackson
Sharon Glenn Jackson, beloved mother, daughter, sister, aunt and friend passed away unexpectedly at her home in Albuquerque, Friday, Oct. 22,
2010. She was born to Bill Sr. and Gloria Glenn on Feb. 4, 1954, at St. Mary’s Hospital in Roswell. He preceded her in death. She is survived by her fiancé, Dr. Scott Wright, of the home; son, Lance Jackson, of Austin, Texas, daughter and son-in-law, Tiffany and Bobby Latner; daughter and son-in-law, Amanda and Shawn McCasland; and daughter, Amelia Jackson, all of Albuquerque. She is also survived by her loving mother, Gloria Glenn; brother and sisterin-law, Bill and Sue Glenn; sister, Patricia Glenn; niece, Melanie Glenn and Jef f Bannister, all of Roswell; nephew and wife, Kyle and Brittany Glenn, of Las Cruces; and numerous other relatives and friends.

She started working in the computer department putting the county on the computer, which took her through the Assessor’s Office, Treasurer’s Of fice, and Clerk’s Of fice. Then she transferred to work as a juvenile detention jailer. From there, she worked in the Clerk’s Office for several years until she became secretary for Fire and Emergency and County Planning and Zoning.

Protesters blame UN base for cholera in Haiti
PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP) — Hundreds of protesters who blame U.N. peacekeepers from Nepal for Haiti’s widening cholera epidemic marched on a rural military base Friday to demand the soldiers leave the country. Demonstrators waving tree branches and carrying anti-U.N. banners walked from the central plateau city of Mirebalais several miles to the gates of the base perched above a tributary of the Artibonite River — a waterway identified by health officials as a conduit for the infection. The protesters chanted “Like it or not, they must go” as the Nepalese soldiers and other U.N. peacekeepers remained inside. Cholera has sparked widespread fear in Haiti, where it was unknown before the outbreak was first noticed by authorities Oct. 20. As of Friday morning, more than 4,700 people have been hospitalized and at least 330 have died, according to the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs. There has been no scientific conclusion on the origin of the epidemic, which became evident when dozens of patients began dying with high fevers and watery diarrhea at a hospital in the town of St. Marc a few miles from the last stretch of the river. Experts say the disease was likely imported. Until this month there had not been a diagnosed case of cholera in Haiti as far back as records go in the mid20th Century, said ClaireLise Chaignat, head of the global task force on cholera control at the World Health Organization.

is pandemic in parts of Africa and Asia. among Speculation Haitians is increasingly centered on the Nepalese peacekeeping base near Mirebalais, much of it being stoked by politicians including the town’s mayor — a Senate candidate — ahead of the Nov. 28 national elections. Cholera is endemic in Nepal and the country suffered outbreaks this summer. The current troop contingent arrived in shifts starting Oct. 9, after the outbreak in their home country and shortly before the disease broke out in Haiti. Cases have been concentrated down river along the Artibonite. The U.N. Stabilization Mission in Haiti, known as MINUSTAH by its French initials, is investigating the area around the base for signs of cholera, The Associated Press learned after happening on crews testing the site Wednesday. The results of those tests are still pending. None of the Nepalese soldiers based there have been tested for cholera because none presented symptoms, mission spokesman Vincenzo Pugliese said Friday. He said media reports published elsewhere were saying that all soldiers had tested negative for the disease were incorrect. “By none of them presenting the symptom of the cholera there was no need to do another test,” Pugliese told AP. “It’s not the same as saying they were all tested negative because none of them had to be tested.” The soldiers have not been tested for cholera since the outbreak,

Protesters who blame U.N. peacekeepers from Nepal for Haiti's widening cholera epidemic marched on a rural military base to demand the soldiers leave the country, Friday. he said. But about 75 percent of people infected with cholera do not exhibit symptoms and can still shed them into the environment and infect others for two weeks, Pan American Health Organization deputy director Jon Andrus told reporters at a press briefing on Oct. 25. The U.N.’s Medical Support Manual for peacekeeping operations lists neither diarrhea nor cholera on its list of conditions precluding peacekeeping service. The mission had initially responded to rumors of the base’s involvement with a Tuesday statement saying that sanitation around the base was in line with the standards set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the United
Nations. But when Associated Press journalists visited Wednesday, they found open and cracked pipes behind the base, with U.N. military investigators taking samples. There was an overpowering smell of human waste, and a pipe leading toward a septic tank was leaking foulsmelling black fluid toward the river. The waste is dumped across the street in open pits that residents, who live a few yards away, said often overflow into the Artibonite tributary running below. The contractor, Sanco Enterprises SA, says the pits are sprayed with bleach. On Friday, protesters called on the Haitian gover nment to kick out the

Nepalese soldiers. “The Nepalese brought this disease to the center of Mirebalais,” said Er nst Exilume, a 25-year-old student. “We have no water to drink. We have no choice but to drink the water from the river.” International aid groups had made hygiene and the control of disease priorities after the Jan. 12 earthquake, especially as millions of Haitians found themselves homeless and living in tarp and tent settlements around the capital. Throughout the year banners imploring people to wash their hands have hung over streets and on walls. Scientists from the CDC are retesting samples to determine the nature of the cholera strain at a molecu-
lar level, which could help pinpoint its origin, and hope to have results to share with Haiti’s Ministry of Health sometime over the weekend, CDC spokesman Tom Skinner told the AP. Tests can indicate the areas of the world where this cholera strain has been found, but the results may not reveal its national origin or how it got to Haiti, he said. The U.S. agency is not specifically investigating in the area of the base or taking environmental samples, another CDC spokesman, David Daigle, said. “For sure it is going to be important to know where the germ came from. I don’t know if we are going to get an answer,” Chaignat, the WHO official, said.
Israeli society shaped by borders JERUSALEM (AP) — All countries are literally defined by their borders, but few have had their history, society and national mindset shaped by their frontiers as much as Israel. Most residents of Israel, a narrow strip of land surrounded by Lebanon, Syria, Jordan, Egypt, the Palestinian territories and the Mediterranean Sea, live within a short drive of a frontier. The longest drive an Israeli can take without encountering a border runs from the country’s northern tip to the south, and takes about eight hours. Israelis can theoretically cross two of their borders, into Egypt and Jordan, but today few do. For the most part,
the frontiers are seen as virtually impassable walls keeping enemies at bay. With their barbed wire coils, hills scarred by patrol roads and weather -beaten guard posts manned by young soldiers, the borders are perhaps the most dominant single feature of the landscape. Numerous infiltrations, skir mishes and wars have made the frontiers a matter of life and death. The border dispute with the Palestinians in the West Bank has become the central feature of Israel’s fractious politics and one of the main obstacles in deadlocked peace talks the U.S. is currently trying to restart.

Retain Effective County Officials -
Vote YES for Constitutional Amendment #2
Constitutional Amendment No. 2 proposes to amend Article 10, Section 2 of the Constitution of New Mexico to allow county officials to serve three consecutive terms instead of two.
The New Mexico Association of Counties (NMAC) supports CA2. CA2 does not eliminate county term limits; it extends the existing term limits to allow elected county officials to seek a third term: This amendment: NMAC believes that the decision to retain or remove a county elected official should be made by the voters, rather than be mandated by state law. Current provisions in both the state constitution and statutes provide methods to recall or remove county elected officials for misfeasance, malfeasance and failure, neglect, or refusal to discharge the duties of the office. • Allows voters to retain experienced and effective officials and expands voter choice, particularly in low-population counties where the pool of willing, eligible and capable individuals is often small;
• Permits county officials to gain and utilize the expertise required by increasingly complex systems and services provided to the citizens of a county; • More equitably balances the expertise of officials chosen by the voters, against that of long-time career bureaucrats and lobbyists County officials who are completing their second consecutive term in 2010 would not be eligible for a third term if the amendment passes.

Iran says it is ready to restart nuclear talks Roswell Daily Record
VIENNA (AP) — Iran offered on Friday to negotiate with six world powers about its disputed nuclear program in a new bid to end growing concern that it could be used to produce weapons. The move, following a hiatus of more than a year, was anticipated in the wake of an invitation to the Iranian leadership last month by chief EU envoy Cather-

Antarctic copter crash leaves 4 French dead
ADELAIDE, Australia (AP) — All four passengers on a French helicopter that crashed in rough weather in Antarctica have been confir med dead. Another helicopter from the Dumont-d’Urville scientific station in Antarctica flew to the site of the crashed aircraft Saturday and a doctor on board confirmed the deaths. The Australian Maritime Safety Authority reported the deaths in a statement and said the French are conducting recovery operations with assistance from Australia’s rescue coordination center and the staff at the U.S. McMurdo base on Antarctica. The helicopter crashed Thursday evening. Those in the craft were four French citizens — a pilot, a mechanic and two employees of a state-run research center.
Less rain, aid hurts North Koreans
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — A predicted rainfall shortage in some parts of North Korea, combined with reduced food aid this year, will have an “alarming” effect on the nutrition of the nation’s young children and pregnant and lactating women, the U.N. Secretary-General warned Friday. Ban Ki-moon told U.N. member nations in a report on North Korea’s human rights situation that rainfall in some areas of the country is expected to be 18 percent lower this year than in 2009, despite torrential downpours and flooding that hit the country’s west on Aug. 20.
Egypt police shoot Sudanese migrant
EL-ARISH, Egypt (AP) — An Egyptian security official says a man from Sudan’s Dar fur region was shot dead trying to sneak across the border into Israel. Egyptian border guards surprised a group of Africans and their Egyptian smugglers trying to cross into Israel six miles south of the Rafah border town, said a security official. The two sides exchanged fire and the Sudanese man was killed while two others were taken into custody. The remaining Africans and their smugglers scattered into the desert border region. Egypt has killed dozens of migrants in recent years.

ine Ashton and following repeated statements by Tehran officials that they were ready for talks. Ashton called the Iranian of fer “a very important” development. Still, after eight years of Tehran refusing to halt uranium enrichment, despite U.N. Security Council sanctions, officials from the main countries trying to engage Iran expressed little hope of a
breakthrough. German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle said the readiness to talk should be viewed positively, “but out of the signals ... must come really concrete talks.” Tehran has said its uranium enrichment is designed only to generate nuclear power. But it also could be used to manufacture weapons-grade uranium as fissile warhead
material. While Tehran argues that it has a right to enrich for peaceful purposes, international concern is building over Tehran’s nuclear secrecy and its refusal to allow the Inter national Atomic Energy Agency to follow up on U.S. and other intelligence detailing alleged Iranian experiments geared at making nuclear arms.
Sunday, October 31, 2010
Iran’s Supreme National Security Council said in a letter to the EU’s foreign policy chief that Iran is ready to hold talks after Nov. 10 “in a place and on a date convenient to both sides,” the country’s news agency reported. Ashton had suggested Vienna, but the venue remained undetermined. According to a U.N. diplomat familiar with the
talks, the two sides are exchanging letters now on the date and place of the November meeting. With expectations modest, Washington appears keen to use the talks to demonstrate unity among the six powers — the U.S. Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany — in trying to bring Tehran to a nuclear compromise. Unity has been strained.

For the love of a dog ... or a cat

The Animal Welfare Alliance holds low-cost spay/neuter clinics to reduce the population of unwanted animals in Chaves County
ERIN GREEN RECORD STAFF WRITER
Standing over the operating table, veterinarian Bill Pearce takes off his gloves and stretches. It’s time for a quick break. Pearce has just finished spaying a large dog — one of 23 dogs and two cats he will spay or neuter on a bright, sunny October morning in Roswell. The El Paso, Texas-based doctor has been working with Roswell’s Animal Welfare Alliance at its monthly low-cost spay/neuter clinic, 927 E. McGaffey St., for two and a half years. Break time’s over and it’s time to get back to work. Pearce likes to do the spayings first, then the neuters. Surgeries go fast in any case — it takes about 10 to 15 minutes per spay, maybe five per neuter, but the species matters. “Cat day generally goes faster,” Pearce said, explaining that cat stomachs are shallower, which makes the surgery — an open abdominal, complete hysterectomy, including removal of the uterus, cervix and ovaries, under general anesthesia, in sterile conditions and with absorbable stitches — easier to perform. In any animal, however, ensuring that all reproductive organ tissue is removed is important. “In dogs and cats, we want to get both ovaries because (if any tissue remains) although they can’t get pregnant, they can still go into heat, bleed and attract males.” The AWA, dedicated to reducing the overpopulation of companion animals in Chaves County through aggressive spay and neuter programs, has been holding clinics since January 2006 to try to reduce the number of unwanted dogs and cats in Chaves County. At each clinic, Friday is devoted mainly to small and medium dogs, Saturday to large dogs and Sunday to cats. Surgeries are done for any amount from $1 to $70 for dogs and $25 for cats. To make an appointment, call 317-7439. McInerney cautioned that people should be patient and a volunteer will call back. But in the meantime, she urged people not to call any of the AWA officers’ personal home or cell phones. The group holds its clinics one weekend each month, January through November — the next clinic is scheduled for Nov. 19-21. The AWA’s goal is to spay or neuter 100 animals each month, or 1,000 each year — a goal it will surpass this year, according to Jo McInerney, president of the AWA. “To date (for 2010), we’ve done 1,095 animals,” McInerney said. “That’s 711 dogs and 384 cats, including the October clinic. I think we’ll do another 100 at the November clinic, so we’ll be at 1,200 for the year.”
AWA spay/neuter clinic dates in 2011 Jan. 21, 22, 23 Feb. 18, 19, 20 March 18, 19, 20 April 15, 16, 17 May 20, 21, 22 June17, 18, 19

Dawn Sage preps a dog during the Animal Welfare Alliance clinic, Friday.
Those numbers are good, she said. Numbers from Roswell Animal Control indicate that in the past month, some 411 animals — 190 dogs, 220 cats and one rabbit — were euthanized. In the course of a year, between 4,000 and 4,500 animals are euthanized. According to the Humane Society of the United States, the average number of litters a fertile cat can produce in a year is three, the average number of kittens in a litter is four to six. One unspayed female cat and her offspring can theoretically produce up to 420,000 cats in seven years. The average number of litters per year for a fertile dog is two, with an average of six to 10 puppies per litter. One unspayed dog can produce up to 67,000 dogs in six years. It’s numbers like that which what prompted the AWA to establish its own spay/neuter clinic, McInerney said. “If you have a responsible community out there
who realizes every litter adds to the pet overpopulation, you will have a more informed community,” McInerney said. “... It’s been really satisfying knowing we’ll be able to cut those euthanasia rates. When we’re only killing the vicious and the ill animals, that’ll be the day we pop the cork and celebrate.” But it takes time — about five years — to see euthanasia rates for unwanted animals to start decreasing, McInerney said. While it took awhile for the clinic to grow, the AWA’s efforts should start paying off soon. Since animals can be spayed or neutered at very young ages — Pearce said surgeries can be done on animals as young as 8 weeks, or when they weigh at least 2 pounds — the health and behavioral benefits are immediate. “A lot of folks want to let (their animals) go through a heat cycle,” Pearce said. “But it’s absolutely unnecessary. ... There aren’t any drawbacks to having these surgeries. It doesn’t affect their ability as a watch dog, their ability to be a watch dog, their ability to be trained. All it does is prevent them from procreating.” The benefits extend to health concerns in the animal’s later years, as well. Female dogs, in particular, can develop a uterine infection called pyometra, which is curable only by surgery and can be fatal. Pyometra can be introduced during a dog’s heat cycle, when the animal’s cervix is open, so older dogs and those which have given birth to multiple litters are more prone to it. Older, intact dogs are also prone to developing mammary tumors, Pearce said. “If they’re (female dogs) intact, the incidence of mammary tumors at age 10 is 60 percent and half of those are malignant,” Pearce said. “Spaying reduces that risk down to almost zero.” In male dogs, neutering’s benefits include a significant reduction in aggressive behavior, spraying and other behavioral problems. “If you do these things, you have much less problems,” he said. Doing all of these things also requires funding. The AWA relies on donations and grant money, which the organization applies for in December, when no clinic is held due to the holidays. These donations, including one made to the group on Friday by the Community Foundation of Chaves County, gave the group $750 to provide 40 to 50 low-cost surgeries. The organization also relies on volunteer help, such as 17-year-old Taylor Rodgers, who has been volunteering for almost a year. “Animals can’t take care of themselves,” she said of the reason she volunteers. “People can.” For more infor mation on the AWA, visit https://sites.google.com/site/awaroswell.

Girl’s sexual activity may be result of family upheaval Q: I’ve just learned that my 12-year-old daughter has experienced sex with a classmate. We’re both hurt by this. Three years ago her dad and I went through a divorce. Then he remarried and moved 18 hours away. All of this was pretty devastating to our daughter and I don’t know what to do now. JULI: My heart goes out to you and your daughter. Your heart as a mom must be broken as you think of her purity taken away at such a young age! At 12, your daughter is just beginning the emotional challenges of adolescence. She’s in the midst of trying to figure out who she is and what she believes. Losing her virginity at this age can be even more devastating if she begins building the foundation of her identity upon this one mistake. For this reason, you need to work hard to combat the messages she may believe about herself — “I’m unworthy; I’m bad,” etc. It’s also important that you reaffirm how much you love and value her. In the midst of spending time together, you’ll need to have some difficult conversations about what she’s feeling and the choices she has made. Because these topics are so sensitive, reading a book or watching a movie together that raises some of these issues can be a good way to open up the conversation. Also, find a counselor, pastor or mentor who can help your daughter work through the painful rejection she probably feels from her dad’s absence. Research overwhelmingly indicates that girls whose parents have gone through a divorce are far more likely to get involved sexu-

ally at an early age. It’s very possible that your daughter’s sexual activity is an attempt to replace the affection she once received from her dad. Finally, don’t neglect your own feelings in all of this. You need to be emotionally available for your daughter. That’s tough when you're in the middle of your own grief process. Connect with a good friend or counselor who can be a support for you as you support your daughter. ** ** ** Q: Our 22-year-old daughter is pregnant and living at home. She’s currently working and attending college. She and the father are “in love” but don’t feel ready to marry. She doesn’t feel like she should marry just because she is pregnant. What advice can you give me about helping her? JIM: First, I would praise her for choosing to have the baby. Abortion is often presented as a “solution” for unmarried mothers, but it only results in more pain for everyone involved. She needs your unwavering support and affirmation as she prepares to welcome this precious

Plan carefully before knocking down a wall
BY MELISSA RAYWORTH FOR THE ASSOCIATED PRESS If your home was built within the last decade, odds are it was designed with an open plan. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, and few walls separate the living and dining areas. But what if your home is a bit older? In the 1970s and ’80s, “houses were built with a separate great room, separate small living room, separate small dining area” and a kitchen walled off from the rest, says Ellen Goode, professor of interior design at Meredith College, in Raleigh, N.C. Phrases like “formal dining room” and “breakfast nook” were selling points. Today, many owners of those houses want the flexibility of an open plan, and are knocking down walls to get it. Kitchens are frequently merged with other rooms to create a larger, more inviting family area. “The kitchen is the hub of the household,” says Paul J. Zuch, president of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry. “Kids are doing homework ... mom wants to keep an eye on the kids when they’re on the Internet.” Busy families are trying to spend time together when they’re home. Another reason why walls in older homes are coming down is because beds, sofas and other possessions are larger than they were a generation ago, says Dorcas Helfant, past president of the National Association of Realtors. “We want big screens,” she says, “and we need space to sit back far enough from the screen.” Knocking down a wall may seem pretty easy, and it can be. But doing the demolition and rebuilding, and figuring out how to decorate the new combined space can be complicated, says Vern Yip, designer for
new life into the world. That said, she can’t stay with you forever. It’s good that she's got a job and is attending college, although those things will need to be set aside, at least temporarily, after the baby arrives. Even though it's not an ideal situation, you and your husband (and the baby’s father) need to be prepared to help her financially during this period. And speaking of the father, I hope that he and your daughter will, sooner rather than later, consider getting married — assuming he would be a good husband. They may not feel “ready,” but if they're truly committed to one another, getting married and creating a stable home will be in the best interests of both them and their child. Don’t pressure them into it, though — it’s a decision they'll need to reach on their own. Pray that the impending birth of their baby will help move them in that direction! ** ** ** Jim Daly is president of Focus on the Family, host of the Focus on the Family radio program, and a husband and father of two.

WEDDINGS AND ANNIVERSARIES Mike and Joy Juracek
Joy Carol Jackson and John Michael (Mike) Jurecek met at Mesa Junior High in 1963 and soon became junior high school sweethearts. After Mike moved away to Lovington, they soon found out that neither time nor space would keep them from what turned out to be God’s plan. They were married on Oct. 31, 1970, at Sunny Side Heights Methodist Church in Wichita Falls, Texas. They immediately moved to Houston, Texas, where they stayed for two years before moving home to Roswell in 1972. In 1995, they renewed their original wedding vows.
Mike retired from the Roswell Police Department in 1997 as the deputy chief. He is currently employed with the RISD as an attendance case manager. Joy is employed as the produc-

This undated photo released by Master Craft Installations of Copiague, N.Y., shows a remodeled home where columns are the only separators between the kitchen and living room. Today, many owners of older-style houses want the flexibility of an open plan.
HGTV’s “Urban Oasis.” Planning is vital, he says. And as potential DIY projects go, this one is best left to a professional. CHALLENGES, COSTS Demolishing a wall does not have to be expensive or complicated, assuming nothing is hidden inside. But it’s likely there is some mix of electrical wiring, heating ducts, plumbing, even sewer and gas lines snaking through the wall’s interior. Those items will need to be rerouted. And new electrical outlets will need to be installed elsewhere, perhaps in the floor, to make up for any that are removed. Another potential cost: Walls originally built before 1978 probably have a base layer of lead paint. Even if they’ve been repainted since then, the removal must be done in compliance with safety guidelines. A certified remodeler can test for lead, Zuch says, and remove it properly. Most important, a loadbearing wall (which kitchen
walls often are) will have to be replaced with architectural columns or some other type of support. So it’s wise to have the wall assessed by an expert before doing any demolition. In addition, there are costs that can’t be measured in dollars and cents: With a flowing floor plan, noise is harder to contain. If a child is doing homework at the kitchen table and needs quiet, Goode points out, you can’t close a door to keep out the sound of a television in the family room. And keeping pets and toddlers in one place becomes more dif ficult when you can’t simply close the kitchen door. Despite the difficulties and costs, says Zuch, “consider the benefits of changing the floor plan.” If an open plan means family members can spend more time together and really enjoy the space, he says, “it may be well worth the effort.” It also may add to your
home’s resale value. Says Helfant: “Space sells and flow sells.” DESIGN IMPLICATIONS From a design perspective, knocking down a wall brings opportunity and a few hurdles. “A home always seems much larger with fewer walls, even though you haven’t expanded your exterior envelope,” says Yip. “You open the possibility of more natural light pouring into parts that previously couldn’t access natural light.” But once a wall is down, “you don’t have Space A separated from Space B, so it all needs to work together,” he says. A kitchen and family room may both need to be redecorated if they’re now connected. Furniture can be used to delineate specific areas, but homeowners may not know how to accomplish that. “I see this all the time: I don’t know where to put my sofa, don’t know where to put my TV, because you’ve removed all your interior walls,” says Yip.

Roswell Sleep Center gets seal of approval Roswell Daily Record
JOE D. MOORE RECORD STAFF WRITER
After 21 months of service, earlier this month Roswell’s Sleep Diagnostic Center earned gold. On Oct. 8 the center, officially named Sleep Diagnostic Centers of New Mexico, became an American Academy of Sleep Medicine-certified sleep lab, what AASM’s website calls “the gold standard by which the medical community and the public can evaluate sleep medicine services.” Dr. Vijay Chechani, the center’s medical director and a certified sleep specialist, says, because of the accreditation, “Patients can be reassured that they’re going to get quality work when they get sleep studies done here.” Citing AASM’s stringent requirements for bestowing its seal of approval, he added, “It speaks to the quality of the lab.” To earn the gold standard, an AASM inspector investigated the center’s facilities, policies, procedures and observed how patients staying in the center’s four overnight rooms were treated. The center, which opened its doors in January 2009, now ranks among nine AASM-accredited sleep centers in the state and is the only AASM-accredited center in southeastern New Mexico,
Dr. Chechani, who has practiced in Roswell since 1992, says his lab treats all sleep disorders. The most common of which, according to the AASM website, are insomnia, jet lag, sleep walking, snoring and obstructive sleep apnea, or interruptions in breathing that can result in restless nights. The center provides free screening kits that test for sleep apnea, a disease, Dr. Chechani estimates, that afflicts 25% of middle-aged adults in the U.S., but goes undiagnosed in 75% of those who suffer from it. He adds that the prevalence of sleep apnea among people with high-risk diseases, such as diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension, congestive heart failure and atrial fibrillation, might be as high as 50%. And, in some cases, an undiagnosed sleep disorder is playing a part in bringing on these or other medical disorders. While, stereotypically, sleep disorders are associated with obesity, Karl Lynham, who manages the sleep lab, points out that 20% of the center’s patients are of average weight. In addition to treating adults’ sleeps disorders, Dr. Chechani also works with children 5-years-old and up and provides pulmonary and critical care services.

Fox, Cablevision reach agreement to end blackout
NEW YORK (AP) — Fox and Cablevision reached an agreement Saturday that will restore programming to more than 3 million New York-area subscribers who have been without some of their favorite shows and baseball playoff games for two weeks. Signals for all stations and cable channels were restored before the first pitch of Game 3 of the World Series between the Texas Rangers and San Francisco Giants, Fox said.
“In the absence of any meaningful action from the FCC, Cablevision has agreed to pay Fox an unfair price for multiple channels of its programming including many in which our customers have little or no interest,” Cablevision said. Cablevision, which had been without Fox signals since Oct. 16, thanked its customers for staying with them throughout the dispute. “In the end, our customers will pay more than
they should for Fox programming, but less than they would have if we had accepted the unprecedented rates News Corp. was demanding when they pulled their channels off Cablevision,” the statement said. The channels restored were Fox 5, Fox 29, My9, Fox Business Network, National Geographic Wild and Fox Deportes. The two sides declined to release details of the agreement Saturday.

DEAR ABBY: My sister “Penny” and I live in different states and lead completely different lives. We have grown distant over the years — my choice really. Penny isn’t a bad person. She just doesn’t “get” my lifestyle. I have decided to remain unmarried and childless. A husband and family are all Penny ever wanted, and she considers it an insult that I don’t want the life she always dreamed about for herself. I would like to spend time with my sister — occasionally — but she has a different personality, no close friends and feels we MUST have a close relationship because we’re sisters. Abby, I don’t want to be her replacement for the friends she is unable to make. Penny complains that I never visit. But when I do, we’re both miserable, tend to provoke each other and get under each other’s skin. I love her, but it isn’t productive for us to spend a lot of time together. I would like to have a less stressful relationship with her and my new nephew. What can I do to make this happen?

ly what you have told me. You CAN have a less stressful relationship with her, but it will require some compromise on the part of each of you. Explain to her that you do not have it in you to provide the closeness she appears so desperate for and perhaps she will finally accept what you are willing and able to give her. It may lessen the tension between you. DEAR ABBY: We’re planning a 50th wedding anniversary celebration for my parents. My son “Mark” and his girlfriend, “Cindy,” have been a couple for six years and have a 3-year -old son. They live in another town and plan to be married after Mark gets his degree. Abby, my father was never told about the birth of Mark and Cindy’s child, per strict orders from my mother. Because Dad adheres to the values and

morals he lear ned as a young man in the 1950s, Mom is afraid he would “have a stroke” if he knew. Mom refuses to allow Mark and Cindy to bring their son to the party because Dad still doesn’t know. All of the other greatgrandchildren will be there and included in the photos. This seems unfair and heartless. What can I do? ANONYMOUS IN THE MIDWEST DEAR ANONYMOUS: Depriving your father of knowledge that he has a great-grandchild has not only been unfair to the child, but also unfair to your father. The news will NOT “kill” him. He made it through the 1960s, ‘70s and ‘80s, didn’t he? At this point, he may be surprised, but by now NOTHING will shock him. What may disturb him is learning that this was kept from him for so long. You should insist that he be told. Your grandson is not a guilty secret. He deserves to know his great-grandfather while there is still time. And if your mother won’t tell your father, then you should do it — before the party.
• A Reader, via e-mail, said: “I counted my brassieres — I was amazed that I have 21 in my lingerie drawer. I would say that some of them are at least 15 years old. I still use them, I hand-wash them, and they have kept their shape.” • Sharon in Florida says: “I have always hooked in the back. I just find it easier — personal preference.” • J.R.B. in New Jersey says: “In regard to your recent column in The StarLedger, my bra is hooked in the back. The oldest bra I own is from 1953.” So, the oldest bra seems to be from 1953! That’s pretty darn old!

Dear Citizens, My opponent, Steve Pearce, is running a new TV campaign commercial where he launches a desperate, misleading and personal attack against me, my family and our business. His attack is a new low, so let me set the record straight.
We’ve owed a small business in a boom and bust industry for over 30 years. We know a lot about the hard decisions that business owners across the country are faced with on a daily basis, especially in tough economic times.
Well we’re in tough times now. And like a lot of other folks, we had to make tough choices to keep from laying people off and adding to the unemployment rolls. Yes, we had to make some difficult decisions and some hard cuts, BUT WE SAVED 200 JOBS so that our employees could keep paying their mortgages and taking care of their families. Congressman Pearce and his campaign have accused me of taking a three million dollar bonus at the same time our company was eliminating health benefits for our employees. Not only is he kicking a hard working business and its employees when they’re down, but Pearce’s accusation is nothing more than a disgusting lie.
For the last 21 months, I haven’t accepted any payments from our company – NO SALARY, NO BONUSES – NOT A PENNY!

We were forced, like many small business owners, to make a tough decision that came down to providing health insurance or providing jobs. We chose to save jobs, but we kept up the insurance for our employees until March 2010 – we did not cancel it four days before Christmas. That’s just another lie the Pearce campaign is spreading on TV, radio, their website and even in deceptive robocalls.
Unlike Congressman Pearce, I actually worked my way up in the oil fields. When my mom and dad got sick, my family needed help, so I went to work and started out as roughneck at the age of 17 making just $1.50 an hour. I did just about every job there was to do in the oil field and eventually built my own company. I know what that life is like and how hard people have to work. That’s why our employees have always been like family to me. In good times, we provided them affordable healthcare and even helped send their kids to college. When times got tough, I didn’t sell my company and abandon my employees, I dug into my own pocket and reinvested much of our families’ own money back into the company so we could keep on doing good work for our clients and keep paying our people. You know, I once considered Steve Pearce a friend. My wife’s family and his were in 4-H together and we occasionally ran into each other in Hobbs. But these days, Steve Pearce is desperate and willing to say anything to get back to Washington.
BEING YOUR REPRESENTATIVE HAS BEEN THE GREATEST HONOR OF MY LIFE. During the few weeks we have left before Election Day, I’m going to keep doing what I’ve been doing – staying in touch and working hard for the people of southern New Mexico. I believe voters will see through the lies and personal attacks and make a decision based on our records. I look forward to seeing you soon in your hometown soon! Sincerely, Harry

MGM says creditors approve Spyglass merger Roswell Daily Record
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Creditors of struggling Hollywood studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Inc. have voted to approve a merger with Spyglass Entertainment, MGM said Friday. The approval came with the backing of billionaire investor Carl Icahn, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press. The person was not authorized to discuss the issue publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
Icahn, a significant holder of MGM’s debt, voted for the Spyglass plan even though he had publicly supported a rival bid from Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., in exchange for representation on MGM’s board, the person said. More than half of the creditors, holding more than two-thirds of the $4 billion in debt outstanding, needed to support the plan. The news of Icahn’s support for the plan was earlier reported by
the Los Angeles Times. In a statement late Friday, MGM said the secured lenders voting in the process had “overwhelmingly approved its proposed plan of reorganization.” The plan had included a prepackaged Chapter 11 bankruptcy. MGM said it would move “expeditiously” to implement the plan. Spyglass co-CEOs Gary Barber and Roger Birnbaum are now set to head the storied studio behind

the James Bond franchise which also owns half the rights to the upcoming movies based on “The Hobbit.” Icahn, who also holds more than a third of Lions Gate’s shares, had been buying up MGM debt in order to better control the outcome of the vote. Lions Gate, upset at Icahn’s strategizing, sued him Thursday for first opposing its deal, the backing it after he had bought up stakes in both sides of the deal in
order to maximize his profits. Lions Gate said Icahn had obtained $500 million in debt at cut-rate prices without notifying other shareholders of his intentions. Icahn did not respond to a request for comment. Lions Gate had pressed its case strongly in the past week, detailing its proposal in a securities filing and touting its management’s expertise even in its suit against Icahn.
‘Play Dead’ draws on seances, old-time spook shows NEW YORK (AP) — Teller, the silent partner in the magic-comedy duo Penn & Teller, stabs his knife into the gravy-spattered meat loaf before him and puzzles over how to make the of f-Broadway show he has co-written and directed scarier. “Play Dead” has just had its first New York preview. Sitting in a Greenwich Village restaurant next door to the Player’s Theater where the play opens Nov. 11, Teller worries that the show isn’t there yet, despite the genuinely panicked screams emanating from the crowd that evening. “I want the audience to really wonder: If the dead could come back, would you want them to?” Teller explains. The show walks a thin line, trying to scare audiences out of their wits while reassuring them of their safety. It’s a delicate balance and one that Teller likens to “choreographing a Busby Berkeley dance spectacle with all of your dancers in blindfolds.” “Play Dead” doesn’t lack for scary material: There are cannibalistic child serial killers and beheaded rats; light bulbs are devoured like potato chips and at least one audience member is killed each evening. Audience members’ dead relatives speak from beyond the grave
amid legions of bats, hordes of spiders, gaggles of ghosts and bath-loads of blood. The tension is ratcheted up further by all the preshow safety advisories — cell phones must be turned off completely to ensure complete darkness and standing up when the lights are tur ned of f is strictly forbidden. It quickly becomes clear that aisle seats are not for the faint of heart. Still, Teller is intent on tightening the action to the edge of panic. “There may be enough fear around in our culture that it might be a nice idea to spend an evening using fear just to delight you,” Teller says of the play that draws on Midnight Spook shows and spiritualist seances for source material. Spook shows were a phenomenon across America from the 1930s up until the 1970s when magicians would take over a movie theater on Saturday nights after the last showing and decorate them like haunted houses, creating a venue for potentially scary tricks like sawing a woman in half. “It was mainly for teenagers who love to be thrown in the dark together,” Teller says. “Some were good. OK, most were terrible — some old drunk, misfit magician would decorate the place with
skulls.” For the finale, someone dressed as a mummy or werewolf would usually charge into the audience as the theater was plunged into total darkness, giving the teenagers an excuse to grope one another. “Play Dead” also draws on the experiences of the show’s star and co-author Todd Robbins, whose lifelong obsession with seances, car nies and geeks lends the show an added creepiness. “I saw a sideshow act when I was 12, and I was hooked by the sword swallowing, fire-eating, the tricks that weren’t tricks,” says Robbins, whose highvoltage smile can turn into a devilish grin on a dime. “In our show, what you think is fake is probably real, and what you think is real is probably fake.” For Robbins, the show’s success depends on a trick as old as theater itself: the suspension of disbelief. “The show has to flow without having a moment when the audience will pull back and say, ‘I don’t believe it,’” says Robbins, admitting that he envies and models his character after the spiritualist ministers who make a show of channeling the dead at seances. “When you have belief on your side, you don’t have to work as hard as I do every night.”

Scorsese foundation helps restore classic film “La Dolce Vita”
ROME (AP) — Martin Scorsese hailed “La Dolce Vita” as changing world cinema forever as he presented the restored version Saturday of Federico Fellini’s black-and-white classic. Scorsese, who was 18 when “La Dolce Vita” first came out in 1960, spoke of the impact the movie had on him and of the importance of preserving films for future generations. His institute for the preservation of film treasures, the Film Foundation, helped restore it. “We have an obligation to the future, we have an obligation to our children to at least let them know this is here, this is what it was like,” Scorsese told a press conference at the Rome Film Festival. “This is grand opera from Italy in the late 19th century.” Scorsese described “La Dolce Vita” as a landmark work both in world cinema and in Fellini’s own production. The movie broke narrative rules in that “there’s no story, there’s no plot, and the film is an epic
length — three hours,” Scorsese said. It said it had “a moral intensity, an intelligence and a maturity” that was unprecedented at that point in commercial movies. “This leveled the playing field for commercial cinema all throughout the world,” the American filmmaker said. “This changed everything.” The movie follows Marcello Mastroianni’s character — a journalist — as he covers jet society, movie stars and Rome’s nightlife in the late 1950s. Through Mastroianni’s eyes and quest for happiness, Fellini depicts a selfindulgent, ultimately decaying society. The Rome festival marked the 50th anniversary of the movie’s release with a world premiere of its restored version, an exhibit and other side events. Also shown at the festival were some scenes that did not make the final cut, including one bit from the iconic scene where Anita Ekberg seductively splashes in the Trevi Fountain. The Swedish actress came

to Rome for the screening. Scorsese, a New Yorker of Italian origin, is a great admirer of Italian cinema. His 1999 documentary “My Voyage to Italy” pays tribute to the Italian films that have influenced him, including those by neo-realist masters such as Roberto Rossellini or Vittorio De Sica, or Michelangelo Antonioni. Influence is an elusive idea, one that can’t be defined, Scorsese said Saturday. Still, he said, Fellini inspired him to be creatively free, both with “La Dolce Vita” and with later films such as “8 1/2.” “He wiped away all his concerns as a filmmaker with story on this picture and changed the world that way,” Scorsese said of Fellini. Since “La Dolce Vita,” Fellini never told straight stories again and started constructing his movies like “giant murals.” “La Dolce Vita,” Scorsese said, “gave us the freedom to go ahead and break open cinematic narratives” while at the same time creating “a spectacle of life, a spectacle of a society, a culture — and a

Stewart-Colbert rally mixes fun with sober message
NEW YORK (AP) — Jon Stewart was right. As promised, his rally was fun. Then, at the end, he took a few moments for “some sincerity.” For some viewers, those clearly heartfelt remarks on the innate goodness of Americans may have upstaged everything that went before. Fun was about as specific as Stewart had gotten in the weeks leading up to the Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear, which he hosted and produced with fellow Comedy Central star Stephen Colbert. Exactly what the rally would be, and what big names might show up for it, had been a guessing game for fans of “The Daily Show” and “The Colbert Report,” as well as the media, for weeks beforehand — at least until Wednesday, when a few names leaked. On Saturday, viewers of Comedy Central’s live telecast — and online streaming — of the three-hour shindig saw a dandy musicand-comedy concert with an inarguable social message. It was staged on Washington’s National Mall, with the U.S. Capitol as the glorious backdrop. The overarching theme was to redeclare Americans’ ability to get along and work together, regardless of their ideological differences. And to chastise the media and politicians for promoting polarization. To put this message across comedically, the rally
T.I.’s wife charged with drug possession in LA
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Prosecutors have charged rapper T.I.’s wife with one count of misdemeanor drug possession stemming from an arrest last month on the Sunset Strip. Prosecutors charged Tameka Cottle with possession of ecstasy on Friday and she is due in court for an arraignment on Nov. 1 in Beverly Hills. The 35year -old was arrested along with her husband on Sept. 1 during a traf fic stop. Prosecutors on Monday declined to charge T.I., citing a federal judge’s decision to send him to federal prison for 11 months for violating his probation on weapons charges and the small amount of drugs found on him. A charge evaluation sheet said deputies found four ecstasy pills on the Grammy Award winner. It was not immediately clear whether Cottle had an attorney.
harnessed the familiar onair personalities of Stewart, who, as anchor of the “Daily Show” satirical newscast, radiates bemused reasonableness, and Colbert, who inhabits a bloviating rightwing pundit on “The Colbert Report.” Their make-believe clashing in comic bits during the rally was exemplified when Colbert defended the value of unreasonable fear, as in the Garden of Eden. “If Eve had just had a healthy phobia of snakes, she would not have eaten that apple and cursed us all with original sin,” he blustered. “Then I’d be able to walk around naked everywhere.” “You’re just creating bogeymen,” Stewart protested. “Bogeymen?” Colbert erupted in alarm. “Where?” Later, Stewart introduced

Yosef (once known as pop star Cat Stevens), who sang his gentle 1970s anti-war anthem, “Peace Train,” until Colbert brought out Ozzy Osbourne, who ripped into his classic hit with lyrics including, “I’m going off the rails on a crazy train.” These dueling songs led to a standoff, which was settled when the O’Jays arrived to perform “Love Train.” Other musical guests included the Roots, John Legend, Kid Rock, Sheryl Crow, Jeff Tweedy, Mavis Staples and Tony Bennett, who sang “America the Beautiful.” But the proceedings never strayed too far from funny business, however pointed. Addressing a crowd in the tens of thousands, Stewart reminded them: “It doesn’t matter what we say or do here today. It matters what
is reported about what we said or did here today.” Demonstrating how the media could slant a given event in wildly different ways, he let two of his “Daily Show” correspondents take a whack. Wyatt Cenac described the throng as “freedom-loving patriotic Americans brought together by the common optimism of a perfect future,” while Jason Jones in his mock report said they “seem like a disorganized mass of activists here to push their own pet cause or grievance.” An overlong climactic set piece found Stewart insisting that Americans can come together and solve problems, with Colbert arguing, “The American people can’t work together on anything! They cannot stand each other!” His dismaying evidence:
video collages of politicians and cable-news analysts at their most overwrought and vitriolic. Colbert even had a comeback when Stewart proposed wielding a TV remote control to shut off such programming: A montage of fearmongering reports said remote controls are a magnet for bacteria. By then, the afternoon was long, but Stewart took time for some closing remarks and, playing it serious, attempted to explain the rally’s purpose — in his mind, at least. To some onlookers, what he said in those dozen minutes may have been superfluous, even self-indulgent. For others, he reached a level of eloquence that made the rest of the day just a prelude. Americans, he said, do “impossible things every day that are only made possible
through the little, reasonable compromises we all make.” But these are compromises the current crop of politicians are unwilling to make and the media are unwilling to recognize. “The image of Americans that is reflected back to us by our political and media process is false. It is us through a fun house mirror,” he said. Americans work together to get things done every day, he said. “The only place we don’t is here,” he said, pointing behind him at the Capitol building, “or on cable TV.” As a stirring pep talk and reality check, Stewart’s remarks were the sanest moments on TV in memory — and the surprise many viewers were seeking from the rally.
