STORY AND PHOTOS BY EMILY RUSSO MILLER Two men were shot dead, and another injured, in a double homicide early Saturday mor ning on the street of a residential

neighborhood at the Roswell International Air Center, police say.

Officer Erica O’Bryon, a Roswell Police Department spokeswoman, identified the deceased as Brandon Lucero, 19, and Rodney

Sanchez, 31.

O’Bryon says police responded to gunfire around 12:30 a.m., Saturday, on East Byrne Street, between South Brown and McDonald Place, after a verbal argument escalated

into violence.

“It began with a verbal argument, and the end result was two dead,” she said.

O’Bryon says a third person was transported by helicopter for medical treat-

The Roswell Independent School District will be audited this month by the New Mexico Public Education Department in a statewide effort to inspect suspect funding numbers, officials say.

The NMPED sent letters of notice of audit to 34 of the state’s 89 school districts, Thursday.

“Everyone who got this letter is under review,” Larry Behrens, NMPED public information officer, said.

Education Secretary-Designate Hanna Skandera said in a press release that the audits are in line with Gov. Susana Martinez’s promise to protect students and classroom spending.

Animal Alliance holds March for Babies raises $25,000 spay-neuter clinic MATTHEW ARCO RECORD STAFF WRITER

Take a male dog and a female dog, add six years in between and the couple, including their litter and their litters’ litter and so on, have the potential to make 67,000 pups.

It’s a statistic given by officials running Roswell’s Animal Welfare Alliance, an organization that provides low-cost spay and neuter procedures for dogs and cats, and should shed light on the importance of pet owners fixing their pets, said Jamie Blaha, Alliance vice president.

The organization holds a once a month three-day spay and neuter event, and for the first time they invited veterinarian assistant

students studying at Eastern New Mexico UniversityRoswell to join their team and get some hands-on experience.

“I like it. I lear n a lot more when it’s hands-on,” said Kellie Martin, an ENMU-R student who partook in the program during this month’s three-day event. “(What we lear ned in class) makes more sense now that we’re doing this,” she said.

The Alliance says it spays and neuters about 90 pets each day that they hold the event. Blaha explained that fixed animals are healthy pets and are at lower risk for certain types of cancers, for example.

Abstract painter debuts at RMAC Artist: Jesus on cross inaccurate JONATHAN ENTZMINGER RECORD STAFF WRITER

Spellbound, Jennifer Moses’ reflections and reactions to the phenomenon of daily life in New Mexico, opens Saturday at Roswell Museum and Art Center, 100 W. 11th St. “I came up with that title because part of the whole experience I have had has been one of feeling fascinated by this environment and also somewhat woozy,” Moses said. “I am struck by the hallucinatory aspects of the landscape. It’s hard to understand scale and distance and the dazzling light. In short, I am spellbound. It is also one of my favorite Hitchcock movies.”

The exhibition will include collages, drawings and paintings that express Moses’ moments of exploration of Bitter Lake National Wildlife Refuge, Carlsbad Caverns, Ghost Ranch and the Hondo Valley. In addition, works will also display “motifs” she discovered around town and at the artist-in-residence compound. They include spiderwebs and tumbleweeds, the pale colors of grass and scrub and the drama of the sky.

The artist goes into detail about her creative process for the show in her artist statement.

“I attempt to allow my day-to-day experience influence the work with equal regard for the elegant and the ordinary,” she writes. “Whether it is the hallucinatory landscape, the desert flora and fauna, or the rows of tantalizing craft supplies at Hobby Lobby, I allow things glimpsed and sensed to become part of the language of

Much of Roswell life has been quite foreign for the New Englander. She has been an associate professor of art at the University of New Hampshire for 22 years. Moses spoke about the contrasts.

“It’s like opposite land. I live in the city where objects are big and spaces are tight.

And I got out here ... and I felt like I was stumbling around. I think it starts to come out in the work, which is interesting. My work is usually much more constructed tight spaces. Here, I’m trying to do these open patterns and layers.”

Pearce will be joined at the rally by a number of opponents to the listing who claim jobs will be lost and serious economic impacts will follow if the species makes the list.

“Most of the oil and gas jobs in southeast New Mexico are at risk,” said

The Roswell rally will immediately precede the public hearing held by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife on the sand dune lizard.

The Los Angeles-based

Adam Uriquides, a New Mexico artist, never went to art school, does not hold a degree in divinity and is not a biblical scholar or reverend of any church.

However, if you debated with him about the death of Jesus Christ, he would argue that the Nazarene died on a stake, not a cross. He has even sculpted his own depiction of what Christ’s crucifixion might have looked like.

Uriquides said he has been interested in the details of the crucifixion after learning them from his mother Alicia, who he said taught him the “real story of the crucifixion” at a young age.

To back up his claims, Uriquides points to scripture like John 19: 14-19 in the Greek Interlinear Bible; Fairbarin’s The Imperial Bible Dictionary;

tions of the Bible, like the King James Version.

“Years ago, I had heard that Jesus didn’t die on a cross, that it was a stake,” Uriquides said.

“As I looked into it more, it became very clear that the Romans always impaled people. It was all a part of history. They never used two beams — it was one beam. The more I looked into it, it coincided with the Bible.”

Uriquides believes he has sculpted the second only known rendition of Jesus Christ on a stake, outside of a lesser-known Jonathan Entzminger Photo piece found in Italy, Adam Uriquides’ depiction of believed to have been crethe crucifixion of Jesus ated by Michaelangelo.

Uriquides, a self-taught Christ. oil painter, knows that his and, the research of Rus- rendition of Christ’s death sel Goldman.

a member of a California street gang called LVPL, Loma Vista Place Locos.

She says he was not involved with any gangs in Roswell.

She says Sanchez stepped out of the house Friday night around 11:30 p.m. to chat with a neighbor across the street, and that he was carrying a gun.

She says she was inside the house when she heard shots fired. She noted that Sanchez and Lucero knew each other, but were “not friends.”

Neighbor Jonathan Rothschild says he was sleeping in bed when he heard eight or nine shots fired and immediately called police.

O’Bryon says RPD Detective Kim Northcutt was appointed to lead the investigation. Northcutt did not release any details about the nature of the incident, but Sanchez’s 25-year-old girlfriend, who declined to be named, suspects the shooting may have been gang-related.

The girlfriend says Sanchez was a cook at Peachtree Village and that he lived at her home on 27 E. Byrne St. She says they are from Los Angeles, and that Sanchez moved to Roswell two years ago. She says Sanchez was formerly

year’s donations by about $5,000.

For some, like the Wheat family, it was an emotional event. Lara Wheat says her niece lost her son, Ryan, to a birth defect almost a year ago.

She says he was alive for 36 hours.

“We are walking for him today,” she said, pointing to her T-shirt that had a picture of Ryan on it.

Others, like Lori Fortin with the Grace Community Church group, say they just wanted to support a good cause.

“It’s a good foundation for our young kids,” Fortin said.

The Merchant family, as official ambassadors for March for Babies, thanked the crowd for participating before cutting the ceremonial ribbon at the starting line.

Horner said the Merchant twins were born prematurely and spent time in

“unusual” for East Byrne Street, where he has lived for 10 years. He called it one of the “quietest” blocks in the neighborhood, though he noted it wasn’t always that way.

“This was a bad, bad neighborhood,” he said.

“It’s a lot different now.”

The last homicide at RIAC was in 2002, when a 16-year-old boy was shot in the head. That incident took place at 42 E. Wells St., two streets down from East Byrne Street.

districts ‘gaming the system’ in New Mexico,” Skandera said. “This audit is designed to clear those who turn in honest data and put the spotlight on those who don’t. And above all, this audit signals a new era of transparency and accountability in New Mexico schools.”

An initial audit found nearly $18 million suspect funding claims among the 34 school districts in question, the department said. Behrens elaborated that there was a normal increase in student enrollment across the state (1 percent), but an “unexplained” increase in funding units. The funding units increased by 116 percent from last

Spay

year, Behrens said.

The Associated Press reported Skandera told KOB-TV that Las Cruces Public School District is one of the most concerning with $9 million more for special education funding and teacher training and education.

The wire service also reported that Albuquerque schools had a $1.5 million increase and Santa Fe Public Schools showed $1 million in increases.

RISD Assistant Superintendent for Financial Operations Chad Cole says the teacher training and education funding decreased by .05 percent last year in the Roswell school district. Both the district and the NMPED declined to say whether special education funding had increased or decreased in Roswell.

“It’s a general service for dogs’ health,” she said. “We love that (the students) are able to help and get handson experience. It’s also helping out the community by sending out knowledgeable and well trained technicians.”

Stacy Dietrich, a registered veterinarian technician at ENMU-R, said she was thankful to the organization in helping her students get the real life training.

“They help assist with bloodwork ... and surgical assistance,” she said. “It’s great that they’ve allowed us to do this.”

Cole noted that the school district understands why the state conducts audits, and that the district is more than willing to comply.

“Our books are wide open,” Cole said.

Cole also added that the school undergoes a financial audit each year in compliance with state statute. The last audit was completed Nov. 15 by Accounting and Consulting Group, LLP, a certified public accounting firm approved by the state’s internal auditing department.

Behrens says school districts will likely present their initial findings to the NMPED by April 27.

OPINION

Roswell Daily Record

Special session will be primarly about redistricting

SANTA FE — The near shutdown of the federal government was necessary in order to produce $38 billion in budget cuts. But that was chicken feed compared to what Congress and the president face when they get started on next year’s budget cutting.

That’s when the real hurt begins. Counting special sessions, New Mexico has been through four or five legislative sessions of budget cutting, each one more painful than the last. The next promises to be even more painful.

Congress began reducing its deficit by not cutting much of anything. It did exactly as New Mexico had done by looking in cubbyholes for leftover stashes of money. Tea partiers tried to add in some of their social issues, such as planned parenthood but the bill ended up a basically non-controversial conglomeration of leftover money.

Since the easy part almost caused a government shutdown, it is scary to imagine what the heavy

JAY MILLER INSIDE THE CAPITOL

lifting will cause. But remember last century when President Bill Clinton and a Republican Congress balanced the budget and decreased the deficit to the point there was a light at the end of the tunnel. The guy who erected a federal deficit counter on T imes Square took it down because it wouldn’t run backward.

Of course that Congress had an easier time. Our foreign entanglements weren’t nearly as expensive and we taxed the super-rich back then.

Calls for a special session of the Legislature have been heard to fix the cuts to public school funding that became evident after the ses-

sion. That is not likely since a special session will be necessary to act on redistricting as required after each decennial census.

Other additions to the special session also have been suggested for some important bills that died at the end of the regular session because of filibusters.

It isn’t likely to happen. Lawmakers don’t like extraneous issues diverting them from their task of redistricting our legislative and congressional delegations and the Public Regulation Commission. Not all legislators are on committees dealing with redistricting but since every lawmaker is affected by the redistricting results, it is difficult to focus on anything other than protecting one’s territory.

Back in 1981, when New Mexico gained a third congressional district, predictions were that we would gain a fourth seat by 2011.

Some New Mexicans countered that we would get a fourth seat by 2001. But it didn’t happen. And it

won’t happen in 2011 even though some reports have mistakenly quoted the old estimates.

New Mexico just keeps plodding along, lagging well behind its burgeoning neighbors. Maybe in 2021.

The redistricting of legislative seats will cause some pain. Previous redistricting has removed seats from eastern New Mexico and added them to Albuquerque, Rio Rancho and Las Cruces. It is sure to happen again. Most of eastern New Mexico has grown, but at a lower rate.

Besides extraneous items that may clutter the special session, Gov. Susana Martinez’s veto of an appropriation for expenses before the redistricting session may become an issue. Democrat leaders say the money was to fund hearings around the state to give people an idea of what was coming in their area and to get their feelings.

Martinez’s advisers may have figured part of the money would

be used for computer experts to devise the best deals for Democrats.

Democrats, by the way, say they are more unified than ever. This, despite a major challenge to House Speaker Ben Lujan and a Senate president pro tem elected by a coalition of Republicans and conservative Democrats.

It happens. When Democrats have comfortable margins, they tend to develop factions. Republicans are no different. Back in the 1980s, Republicans, with the help of a few straying Democrats, gained total control of the Senate.

But they hadn’t held it long when cracks began opening between the leaders and those who felt they weren’t getting their share of the new found power.

Democrats know they’re in trouble. It’s a preservation thing.

EDITORIAL

Keep Medicare from killing economy

Rep. Paul R yan, R-Wis., proposed a dramatic change to nudge us closer to market-based health care’s inherent economic freedom and away from Nanny State entitlements’ inevitable bankruptcy.

We will continue to argue for market solutions to America’s health care dilemm a , b ut w e f in d m u ch t o a d mi r e i n Ryan’s proposal. We hope Congress and the president will too. We believe the public would, if given the full story.

The harsh reality is that, without something akin to R yan’s reform, Medicare spending is on course to double in the next decade, require every tax bracket to double to pay for its increasing costs and double as a share of the economy by 2 0 5 0 . U n l ess M e d i ca r e s pe n d i ng i s curbed, it will implode and take the economy with it, leaving millions without any health benefits. To delay refor m is to ensure disaster.

A key component of Ryan’s budget-cutt i ng p r o po sal s u n v ei l ed i n C on g r e ss would transform Medicare, the government entitlement program for people 65 and older that uses taxpayer money to pay for every doctor visit and medical s e r vic e a p at ien t n ee d s. I t w o ul d b e replaced by subsidizing with taxpayer money older people’s purchase of health insurance from private insurers.

Ryan’s plan offers a semblance of market sanity to replace entitlement insanity.

Integral to his reform would be repeal of Obamacare, the government’s disastrous take-over of virtually the entire health care industry. Among Obamacare’s dire consequences will be eventual rationing o f m e di cal se r v i c e s un d e r M e di c ar e because in the real world there just aren’t enough taxpayer dollars for the government to pay for every perceived patient need.

The advantage of Ryan’s system is that limited taxpayer money would subsidize purchase of private insurance. Dubbed “premium support,” subsidies are estimated at about $15,000 a year, with poorer and sicker recipients receiving more. If subsidies don’t cover all costs, seniors would pay the difference, including for additional coverage they may desire. We agree with R yan that people shop more wisely when they spend their own money, and the result should be downward pressure on prices in a competitive market.

The R yan reform would apply only to people 55 years of age and younger today, once they tur n 65. Older persons will remain under Medicare. Subsidies would increase based on inflation, but not the higher rate of health care inflation.

Ryan’s reform deserves a chance, otherwise the nation can await the entitlement system’s certain collapse.

Guest Editorial The New Bern Sun Journal DEAR DR. GOTT: I greatly enjoy your column and have learned much through it. Some time ago, you ran an article from a reader who asked if body piercings could affect a person’s health, and you gave a list of medical procedures and appropriate tests. I think you missed an important possibility. In my experience, the young lady who would not go for counseling or testing is most likely addicted to prescription drugs. The symptoms described are common in withdrawal from opiates (which feels like the worst flu you’ve ever had). Kidney stones are often invoked ways of getting pain relievers. The frequency of the “illnesses” probably means she’s running out of medicine before it’s time to refill her pre-

‘Atlas Shrugged’ now on the silver screen

Twenty-nine years after her death, novelist Ayn Rand is coming to a theater near you.

After many failed attempts, her 1957 novel “Atlas Shrugged” has been made into a film.

In an age when overspending, overreaching, higher-taxing and overregulating government increasingly strangles the private sector, robbing us of our liberties and transforming the country into the model of a socialist state, Rand’s story reminds us how far ahead of her time she was and just how dangerous a time we live in now.

DEAR READER: You are correct that I failed to mention drug addiction as a potential cause of the young woman’s chronic illness. It is also possible that she does indeed have a medical condition, such as Crohn’s, for which pain medication was prescribed, which led to an addiction. Therefore, I stand by my previous statement urging the young woman and her parents to seek out medical attention and testing. However, to that I will add that addiction is a valid potential cause or worsening factor.

As for amotivational syndrome, this is a controversial condition. According to the World Health Organization, it is

“Atlas Shrugged” is a novel, but its plot is anything but fiction. In it, successful businesswoman Dagny Taggart, the head of one of the largest railroad companies in America, struggles to keep her company alive in challenging economic times. Searching for innovative ways to stay afloat, she teams with steel magnate Hank Rearden, the developer of an innovative metal alloy, thought to be the strongest metal in the world. Success seems assured. Then the federal government steps in. The gover nment proclaims the Taggart-Rearden partnership

a constellation of features said to be associated with substance abuse, primarily cannabis use.

These features (apathy, loss of effectiveness, low tolerance for frustration, impaired concentration and more) may be the result of chronic cannabis intoxication or may merely reflect the user’s personality, development stage or attitude.

DEAR DR. GOTT: I’ve noticed in the past there have been more letters from females about reoccurring yeast infections. My wife had that problem for several years before her doctor had her A1C checked and found she was type 2 diabetic. Once her diabetes was under control, she had no more problems.

DEAR DR. GOTT: A while ago, you had a column about a lady with a chronic yeast infection. Many years ago, I had a recurring problem in the same area. For months, my OB/GYN and I tried a variety of pills and ointments, but the irritation always returned. I discovered the cause by accident. When we were traveling in our motor home, I had no problem. But it came back as soon as we returned home. The culprit was the extra-soft toilet paper we used at home. I have been using the simple septic-tank-friendly paper ever since and have no more irritation.

DEAR READERS: Diabetes increases the risk of developing skin and yeast

infections. Undiagnosed, uncontrolled or poorly controlled diabetes increases the risk. It also increases the chances of nerve and kidney damage, cardiovascular disease, cancer, foot damage, brain problems and more. Diabetes can be diagnosed with a simple blood test.

Now to the extra-soft toilet paper. I have never heard of this causing a problem so this is completely new to me. I chose to print your letter because switching toilet-paper brands/types is a simple, inexpensive change that may be extremely beneficial to many people.

Dr. Peter H. Gott is a retired physician and the author of several books, including “Live Longer, Live Better,” “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Diet” and “Dr. Gott’s No Flour, No Sugar Cookbook,” which are available at most bookstores or online.

think in such cynical terms when it comes to the administration. In a headline about the negotiations that supposedly led to $38 billion in spending cuts, the AP wrote: “Budget Tricks Helped Obama Save Favorite Programs From Cuts.”

“Atlas Shrugged” is about those who would penalize individual achievement and subsidize “the collective.” It is the embodiment of Karl Marx’s philosophy, “From each according to his ability, to each according to his need.” To put it another way, the collective believes that if you earn $2 dollars and I make $1 dollar, you owe me 50 cents to make things “fair.” This is redistributionist or, to paraphrase the president, “spreading the wealth around.”

Ayn Rand is not for everybody. Her philosophy is rooted in objectivism, which, Wikipedia says, “holds that reality exists independent of consciousness, that human beings have direct contact with reality through sense perception ... that the proper moral purpose of one’s life is the pursuit of one’s own happiness or rational self-interest and that the only social system consistent with this morality is full respect for individual rights, embodied in laissez faire capitalism.”

Objectivism is a philosophy devoid of God and the opposite of what Thomas Jef ferson rightly believed to be the

This religious vacuum does not mean Rand was not on to something, just as Dwight Eisenhower was when he warned in his 1961 Farewell Address against the dangers of the “militaryindustrial complex.”

Like a human body that is bombarded with viruses, some of which manage to penetrate the immune system, freedom, capitalism and entrepreneurship are under constant assault, not just from foreign enemies, but also domestic ones.

The film has some problems; chiefly its setting in an age when trains reigned supreme. Younger people will need some historical background before seeing it, or some context afterward. I had to explain it to my daughter, but once I did, she “got it.”

Some will inevitably conclude “it can’t happen here” and this is just more conspiratorial posturing from the Far Right.

It can happen here and, in fact, with a country so much in debt to the Chinese and that no longer celebrates individual achievement, but seeks to punish, regulate and tax it to death, it is happening here.

Go see “Atlas Shrugged.” It’s in theaters now.

OPINION III

Roswell Daily Record

Each piece of the puzzle is important to the whole

There is something out there that only you can do. You are programmed to get that something done. If you don’t get it done, it won’t get done.

Some people in this world just LOVE puzzles. My mother is one of them. She always has and always will. If you want to bring a smile to her face, suggest that we pull out a puzzle and spend the evening putting it together. The more pieces the puzzle has, the larger my mother’s smile.

I’m not a puzzle person. To spend hours and hours and hours putting a puzzle together only to break it apart and put it back into the box isn’t at the top of my list of things to do. Further, a real difficult puzzle doesn’t relax me, but causes me stress as I have to work hard to find the right pieces.

Yet, assembling a puzzle serves a constructive purpose. It is putting together numerous small parts to create a bigger picture. It is very frustrating to work hard to assemble a puzzle only to get to the final pieces and find out that one or more pieces are missing.

Because of the missing pieces the picture cannot be completed.

Although just a small part of a bigger picture, a missing piece suddenly becomes very important. We will check inside the box again, get down on our hands and knees and search the floor, we walk the area around where the puzzle was assembled just in

case it fell into a person’s clothing and then was accidently carried away.

Our searching may lead to the missing piece being found. If so, great. We’ll joyfully plug it into the right spot and then the big picture becomes whole. Or, our search may be unsuccessful and we have the disappointment of looking at a picture with a hole in it.

Our lives are very much like a piece to a puzzle. Each piece, each life, has a specific part of a larger picture imprinted on it.

Maybe you’ve heard someone tell you “God has a plan for your life” before. You are a small part of a much larger picture. That picture won’t be complete without you fitting into the right place.

There may be times in our lives that we can’t see how or where we fit into that bigger picture. I think somewhere along life’s road, we get an idea that the world revolves around ourselves.

That’s not the way it is supposed to be. We fail to realize that, with one exception, the entire world consists of other people.

Dear Editor: Well, well, I see that two letter writers on the same day have upbraided me for observing that it is sensible to regard the universe, and the life-forms that it includes, as having arisen by perfectly natural processes. I must admit, I have been a bad boy, choosing to credit the hard-won advances of scientific understanding (a genuine series of triumphs of the human mind) over people who offer only a coloring-book version of how the world has come to be.

When people say that life in particular is too complex to arise spontaneously, they demonstrate that they have no clue how long a time we’re talking about when we refer to even a single billion years, let alone the three billion years (at least) of evolution of life on this planet, from hyperthermophile microorganisms and cyanobacteria all the way up to humankind. (One can scarcely blame them; our politicians demonstrate every day that they don’t understand large numbers either.)

Let me illustrate. If you had a ribbon a billion feet long, it would stretch around the earth at the equator a little more than 7.6 times. And consider that for each foot of this ribbon (one year of time) a flu virus, for example, can mutate sufficiently (changing through the self-beneficial effects of evolutionary natural selection) to render the previous year’s flu vaccines ineffectual against it.

It is quite obvious that there has been plenty of time to produce the life forms that we see around us.

Indeed the evidence resident in those very life forms themselves is ample and eloquent.

Human DNA is replete with evidence of our evolution. Consider, for example, that the DNA strand in Human Chromosome Two contains a stretch of telomere code (a certain nucleotide base-pair sequence ordinarily occurring only on the ends of chromosomes and made of a coding sequence that is quite specific) in its middle to show that this chromosome was fused from what was previously two chromosomes (of the sort still possessed by the chimpanzee). Mutational evidence shows this to have occurred some 100,000 years ago, much longer ago than the youngearth believers even say we have been here.

There are countless other examples.

In terms of what many people call intelligent design, one wonders what is the sensible design in what we humans possess as

You are an integral part of that picture, but you’re not the entire picture. Get the point?

I believe there is something that you were created to do that won’t get done unless you do it.

You have a calling that only you can do. There is a cause bigger than you that you are a catalyst in. As a piece of the greater puzzle, are you accomplishing what you need to be accomplishing?

What is not getting done because you aren’t doing it?

Let me go a little deeper with this comment, “Nothing great has ever been accomplished by only one person.” Great things result from team ef forts. If you can accomplish what you believe you are to accomplish by yourself, it could very well be a good or important accomplishment, but it is not a great accomplishment.

There is a cause for everyone. A short list of causes would include helping youth with terminal diseases, veterans, political parties, athletic leagues, homeless, orphans, abused children, abused adults, a political candidate, church groups, school organizations, civic clubs, disaster relief organizations, alumni associations, community development, youth leadership, city or county committees.

I think you get the idea. There are enough causes to fill the rest of this column. None of these groups would exist without people who support them. In other

the recurrent laryngeal nerve, which runs from the brain not to the larynx (as it should) but past the larynx, down into the chest cavity, and around and back up to the larynx.

This makes no sense in humans, but it did make sense as its homologous predecessor in fish anatomy, from which it is still in the process of deriving. The universe shows every sign of being an imperfect group of phenomena of precisely the sort that one would expect of a world unfolding by its own complex (and therefore sometimes flawed) dynamics.

Pardon me if I credit the work of scientists more readily than I credit the pronouncements of Bronze Age witch doctors. Those texts (if one ignores their barbarisms) may offer some good advice about how to live, but they make no sense as histories of the universe. For that, we must look to the evidence of our own senses as research and experimentation bear them out.

Sincerely, Donald R. Burleson, Ph.D. Roswell

Lessons from the Bible

Dear Editor: I read with some amusement Mr. W.H. Jennings’ letter, printed April 7 of this year.

His “scatter-gun” criticism of the church was wrong on so many levels.

The Bible clearly teaches that those who do not believe will be punished. Mark 9:43, 44 “If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life crippled, than, having your two hands, to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, (where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED.) If you are a believer in the scriptures you will believe that there is indeed a hell and those who “miss the mark” will suffer for it.

You ask “Is this what religion has come down to?” What you experienced was not religion ... it was a sincere attempt to warn you of the peril to come.

The next question you ask is, “What’s wrong with these people?” Honestly, sir, that sounds a little bigoted. Who are “these peo-

words, without supporters, none of the these causes would be advanced or even exist.

So where do you fit into the picture? I don’t know. But I hope you are in the picture.

If each of us chooses a cause we are passionate about, yokes ourselves with others, and then helps pull the plow, there is very little that can’t be accomplished.

President John F. Kennedy in his 1961 inaugural address stated “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country?” The best way to avoid a pity party is to not focus on what is in it for us, but to focus on doing things for others.

Some of you who are older remember the “Pogo” comic. My father told me about one of his favorite Pogo comics. The comic was about a group of firefighters getting called to a fire and how they heroically fought and put out the fire. It has a panel telling of the amazing efforts of a firefighter and then it shows little Pogo looking out of the corner of the panel with the fire hose in his hands and he says “And me holding the hose!” It moves to another heroic act by another firefighter and then it shows Pogo with the same pose again saying “And me holding the hose!” Pogo shares his phrase several more times.

The point is, someone needs to carry the hose. It is a small but important part of a bigger pic-

ple” you refer to? Is it the ones who put the card on your car? The church that is protesting everything? Or Christians in general? You say we all believe the same thing, I sincerely hope you just misspoke when you said that.

We truly do not ...

Were you not aware that there was only one church until Luther? It was his disagreement with the church on several matters that led to the Reformation. The teachings you mentioned (the trinity, hellfire and the immortal soul) are all biblical principles and, if the Bible is taught correctly, will be a part of anyone’s theology. To say that the pope changed the teaching of the Catholic church about hellfire so that it in someway negates the rest of the scripture is presumptuous and wrong.

I am sure the pope is a good man, nice to his mother and all, but as Paul said in Galatians 1:6 – 8 “I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting Him who called you by the grace of Christ, for a different gospel; which is really not another; only there are some who are disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed!”

Now, where in the Bible does God condemn war? Where did Jesus condemn the Roman soldiers? He didn’t, in fact God commanded the Children of Israel to make war in the Old Testament as they took the lands

ture. Without Pogo, the firefighters would not have been able to do their heroic acts.

Vince Lombardi said, “Individual commitment to a group effort, that is what makes a team work, a society work, a civilization work.” There is a Swahili proverb that goes like this, “A boat does not go forward if each one is rowing their own way.” And Bertrand Russell takes this concept global, “The only thing that will redeem mankind is cooperation.”

My challenge to you today is to remember that you are a piece of a bigger puzzle. You are an important piece. The puzzle cannot be completed without you.

The celebration at the completion of the puzzle for a job well done includes you.

There are acts for others that you were created to do. Only you can do them. Do you know what these actions are? Are you doing them? Are you making a difference? Are you working with others in a common cause to make a bigger difference?

If so you are adding value to others and you are adding value to yourself.

Just a thought ...

God had promised them. In fact the first battle of that conquest, Jericho, was God’s to win. All He told the army was to blow their trumpets — He knocked the walls down from the inside.

To condemn Christians so casually for supporting war is to not understand God’s heart. To believe a loving God would not allow people to be tortured for a billion years is also proof that you do not understand God’s heart. If everybody is going to get a get out of hell free card then Christ died in vain, “Jokes on Him!” In talking about the tithe, you were correct, the rule of 10 percent is an Old Testament teaching. Jesus taught that: “Do not acquire gold, or silver, or copper for your money belts, or a bag for your journey, or even two coats, or sandals, or a staff; for the worker is worthy of his support.” A worker is worthy of his support ... who supports him?

The Church! Besides, God wants us to trust Him to take care of us which means he wants all of our resources, not just 10 percent.

You talk about getting another threatening note, but from who? Man cannot send you to hell; only God. Rest assured Mr. Jennings — He will, if He needs to. God has given us the span of our life to accept His perfect gift of love; if we reject Him ... He will reject us.

Safety tips when mowing the lawn

As the grass begins to grow all over Roswell, more and more residents are beginning to work out in their yards. I tend to think of yard work as somewhat therapeutic, but it is certainly a chore as well.

There is also some risk.

One of the most dangerous tools around the home is the power lawn mower, with more than 65,000 emergency room injuries every year. Of course, many of those hurt are younger than 15 years old, just doing chores or ear ning some extra money.

Lawn mower injuries include deep cuts, loss of fingers and toes, broken and dislocated bones, burns and eye and other injuries. Some injuries are very serious. Both users of mowers and those who are nearby can be hurt. Mowing your lawn all starts with safety preparation and awareness. Here are a few tips to make your mowing safer: • Handle gasoline carefully. It is, of course, a flammable liquid which must be stored outdoors, marked and respected as a product which can burn down your house, destroy your vehicle, or cause great injury to yourself and to those you love.

• All mowers have certain safety devices. Never tamper with them, and you should make sure they are operating properly. Children and other bystanders can also be injured if they are nearby. T ragic accidents can occur to children who are fascinated by the noise and the mowing activity. You cannot assume that the child has remained where you last saw them!

• Check out the area you are about to mow. Pick up rocks, sticks or other debris which the lawnmower blades can throw into yourself or at a nearby person or through a window of your home.

• Riding mowers can present some of their own risks of injury. It may

appear to be a fun activity, but do not give a child rides on the riding mower. They can fall off and be badly injured. Children have great memories too! They will remember that quick ride you gave them two weeks ago, and anxious to do that again, they may suddenly appear where you are mowing, get run over and be hurt badly.

• Be careful when you mow on steep slopes. You run the risk of losing control or rolling over. The operator’s manual will have specific safety messages concerning operating your mower on a slope.

• There are several safety concerns that have to do with the clothing you wear when you mow your lawn.

Sandals, open-toed shoes and baggy clothing should not be wor n, and it is a good idea to wear long pants. If you’ve ever been hit in the shin by a flying rock, you will completely understand that it hurts!

Certainly, eye protection should be worn also.

The bottom line is really pretty simple. Lawnmowers are potentially very dangerous machines which can do great bodily harm to you, or your children, or your pets. Common sense safety considerations should be followed at all times and it is usually a matter of thinking out what you are about to do.

Thinking about setting up a Neighborhood Watch? Call Richard and Steve at 622SAFE (7233) for information. And don’t forget, the number for Chaves County Crime Stoppers is 1-888594-TIPS (8477).

NA T I O N A L BRIEFS GORDON WINS 70TH POLE TALLADEGA, Ala. (AP) — Jeff Gordon put himself in select company. So did Rick Hendrick.

Too bad they didn’t get there a little faster.

Gordon won his 70th career pole Saturday and led a Hendrick Motorsports sweep of the top four spots at Talladega Superspeedway — only the third team in NASCAR history to monopolize the first two rows for a Cup race.

Gordon turned a two-lap qualifying average of 178.248 mph for the Aaron’s 499. He broke a tie for third place on the career list with Cale Yarborough and trails only Richard Petty (123) and David Pearson (113).

As for Hendrick, he joined Pete DePaolo (Charlotte, 1956) and Jack Roush (California, 2005) as the only car owners to have the four fastest cars in qualifying for a top-division race. Jimmie Johnson claimed the outside of the front row with a speed of 177.844, with Mark Martin (177.807) and Dale Earnhardt Jr. (177.765) taking the second row.

“I had no idea what to expect, and neither did the team. We certainly didn’t expect to go out and do 1-23-4 for Hendrick,” Gordon said. “It’s funny how a plan comes together when you least expect it.”

But the four-time series champion wasn’t all that thrilled about another landmark: the slowest speed ever to claim the pole at Talladega.

Dallas’ Dirk Nowitzki, left, goes up in the lane as Nicolas Batum (88) and Brandon Roy defend during the Mavericks’ win over the Blazers, Saturday.

DALLAS (AP) — Dirk Nowitzki scored 18 of his gamehigh 28 points in the fourth quarter and the Dallas Mavericks defeated Portland 8981 Saturday night in Game 1 of their Western Conference first-round series.

Even though Nowitzki struggled from the field most of the night, making only 7 of 20 shots, he came through when the Mavericks needed him most.

Nowitzki scored 12 consecutive points in the gameturning spurt in the closing minutes when Dallas tied the game and eventually went ahead to stay.

Jason Kidd added 24 points, including a playoff career-best six 3-pointers.

LaMarcus Aldridge had 27 points for Portland and Andre Miller had 18.

Soon after Portland had its largest lead of six points, the Mavericks got back within 72-70 when Nowitzki made two free throws with 4:49 left.

After Kidd rebounded a Miller miss, Nowitzki got fouled and hit two more free throws to tie the game.

Miller scored with a finger-roll, but Nowitzki hit a 3-pointer from the right side to put the Mavs ahead to stay with 3:40 left.

Even after he was fouled hard to the floor and rubbing his left elbow before getting up on the next possession, Nowitzki made two more free throws.

Aldridge then had a scooping shot before Nowitzki spun between two defenders at the free-throw line and made the shot while being fouled. His free throw made it 80-76.

Dallas, the No. 3 Western Conference seed, survived in Game 1 against a fiesty bunch of Trail Blazers who have become a chic pick for a first-round playoff upset.

Partly because the Mavericks have been knocked out in the first round three of the last four years since taking a 2-0 lead in the 2006 NBA Finals.

Game 2 is Tuesday night in Dallas.

The 38-year-old Kidd, in his 122nd playoff game over 15 NBA postseasons, was 9of-14 shooting — including six 3-pointers. He also had four assists and two steals.

Portland built its lead to 72-66 when Brandon Roy turned and saw Nicolas Batum charging along the baseline and passed him the ball for an easy dunk.

Preps: Long ball powers Rockets to wins RECORD STAFF REPORTS

LOVINGTON — The Goddard boys baseball team found its power stroke and swept Lovington on Saturday.

The Rockets hit four homers in a 9-3 win in Game 1, and jacked six in a 14-5 win in Game 2, including three by Brad Blackwell.

In the first game, the Rockets jumped out to a 21 lead after the first inning and they led 3-1 after two.

Lovington cut the lead to 3-2 in the fourth, but Goddard pushed the lead back to two in the fifth and put the game away with a fiverun sixth.

Andre Shewcraft picked up the win on the mound for the Rockets. He pitched all seven innings and struck out six.

Chris Nunez, R yan Greene, Jason Butts and C.J. Wilcox all hit homers for Goddard in the first game. Wilcox’s round-tripper was a grand slam.

“We just hit the ball really well,” Goddard assistant coach Joe D’Arezzo said.

“That is what we were trying to do.”

In the second game, the score was tied 1-1 heading into the third, but the Rockets blew the game open with a five-run third.

Caelin Wilcox got the win on the mound for the Rockets in Game 2.

In addition to Blackwell’s three homers, Nunez, C.J. Wilcox and Jack Cassels ripped home runs in the nightcap.

Bulls guard Derrick Rose scoops in a layup in the middle of three Pacers defenders during Game 1 of the first-round playoff series between the two teams, Saturday.

CHICAGO (AP) — Never mind what everyone else was thinking, Derrick Rose insisted he didn’t expect the Chicago Bulls to roll over the Indiana Pacers.

They certainly didn’t in Game 1.

Rose scored 39 points and found Kyle Korver for a tiebreaking 3-pointer with 48 seconds left, helping top-seeded Chicago stage a late rally to beat the Pacers 104-99 in their playoff opener on Saturday.

“We knew it was going to be a hard game,” Rose said. “From the beginning I guess we weren’t prepared for it. Next time I think we’ll be ready.”

For the Pacers, the loss was tough to accept. They controlled most of the game, but couldn’t put it away.

They’d make little runs, Chicago would come back, and the Pacers would pull ahead again. With Rose staring at them, Danny Granger never felt safe.

“With Derrick Rose on the other team?

No,” Granger said. “With Derrick Rose on the other team, no. It’s like a crazy stalker ex-girlfriend. Everytime you tell her you don’t want to talk to her, she’ll show up at your door again.”

Trailing 98-88 in the final period, the Bulls showed the resolve that carried them to a league-best 62-20 record, closing with a 16-1 run over the final 3:38.

Rose scored seven during the impressive finish, including a three-point play and a floater that tied it at 99 with 1:27 left. He then hit Korver with a cross-court pass for

a 3 that gave the Bulls their first lead at 102-99.

Danny Granger then missed a 3 and Joakim Noah got the rebound. Rose eventually hit two free throws with 14.8 seconds remaining.

Game 2 in this best-of-7 series is Monday night at the United Center.

Rose again showed why he is an MVP favorite even though he was off target. He missed each of his nine 3-point attempts but made 19 of 21 at the foul line and finished with six rebounds and six assists.

Luol Deng added 18 points and Korver finished with 13, no shot bigger than that 3.

Rose said an open 3 is “like a layup” for Korver, who credited the dynamic point guard for finding him.

“Derrick made a great read,” Korver said.

“If my man helps, he’s going to kick it out to me. If he doesn’t help, he’s going to drive into the lane. That’s why it’s set up that way.”

Granger led Indiana with 24 points, and Tyler Hansbrough shook off an elbow from Kurt Thomas to finish with 22. Darren Collison scored 17, but had just two in the second half, and the Pacers came up just short in their first playoff game in five years.

Even so, they gave the Bulls all they could handle.

Broncos blow 9-2 lead in Game 2, drop pair RECORD STAFF REPORT

NMMI held a 9-2 lead heading into the seventh inning of Game 2 on Saturday, but allowed 18 runs over the final three innings and lost to Howard College, 20-9.

The Broncos also lost Game 1, 11-7.

The Hawks (32-11) went up 1-0 in the top of the second in Game 2, but NMMI took the lead in the home half of the inning.

The Broncos’ Jaime Vargas was hit by a pitch and advanced to second on a single

by Jessie Pantojas. A single by John David Gonzalez loaded the bases with one out and Javier Sanchez knotted the game at one when he was hit by a pitch.

A wild pitch by Howard’s Clint Sharp

plated Pantojas and the final two runs of the inning came via a single by Josh Loera.

After NMMI held the Hawks in check to start the third, it increased its lead in the bottom of the inning thanks to four Hawk errors.

The big blunder happened on a Gonzalez single up the middle.

With two men on and two outs, Gonzalez ripped a single up the middle, but Howard’s center fielder Todd Ritchie misplayed the ball, allowing all three NMMI runners to score.

The Hawks cut the lead to 9-2 in the sixth and took the lead for good with an eight-run seventh inning.

In the Howard seventh, Chase Durham blasted a 2-run homer and Landon Stein-

hagen smacked a 3-run double down the third-base line.

Howard took advantage of four walks and two wild pitches in the inning.

Bronco coach Bret Simmermacher said that good teams like Howard take advantage of mistakes.

“We can’t work behind pitchers and walk guys and hit guys,” he said. “Good teams such as Howard are going to take advantage of that and they did. They showed why they are a national-championship caliber team.”

NMMI couldn’t answer in the bottom of the inning and the Hawks scored four in the eighth and six in the ninth to put the game away.

Simmer macher said that the Hawk pitchers allowed Howard to get back in the

Hawks upset Magic in Game 1

ORLANDO, Fla. (AP) — Joe Johnson scored 25 points, Jamal Crawford finished with 23 and the Atlanta Hawks beat Orlando 103-93 in Game 1 of their playoff series on Saturday, overcoming a monster night by Magic star Dwight Howard.

Atlanta was eliminated

by Orlando in last year’s playoffs in the most lopsided four-game sweep in NBA history, but this one was much different. The Hawks led by as many as 18 points while running multiple bodies at Howard all night, and the rest of the Magic failed to step up.

Howard tied a career high with 46 points, to go along with 19 rebounds.

Jameer Nelson had 27 points but no other Orlando player reached double figures.

Game 2 is Tuesday night in Orlando.

The Hawks were in control throughout after stumbling into the playoffs with a six-game losing streak. They carried an 8571 lead into the final period and caught a break when Howard was whistled for his fifth foul with 10:58 to play.

But even with Howard playing less aggressively

under neath on defense, Orlando put together a 101 run that cut it to 92-83 with 4:40 left.

Howar d banked in a hook shot with under two minutes r emaining to make it 98-90. But a steal

by Josh Smith and 3pointer by Crawford put the Magic back into scramble mode and Atlanta was able to play keepaway the rest of the game.

The Magic came out with some renewed of fensive spirit in the opening minutes of the third, cutting Atlanta’s lead to 57-53.

The Hawks responded with an 11-0 run, aided by a string of Orlando possessions that produced either fouls or turnovers.

To compound matters, a few trips later Howard was hit with his fourth personal and a technical foul at the 5:37 mark for pulling Zaza Pachulia to the floor on a rebound attempt.

Three straight free throws by the Hawks made it 7154.

Nelson kept the Magic close, scoring Orlando’s next 15 points to trim the edge to 80-69 with under two minutes to play in the period.

Al Horford had 16 points

for Atlanta, which has won four straight against the Magic. Smith finished with 15 points and eight rebounds and Kirk Hinrich scored 13.

The Hawks took a 55-48 advantage into the break, relying on hot shooting to keep them out in front for most of the half. Atlanta

shot 55 percent overall, including a 14 of 17 from the field in the second quarter alone.

Howard went 16 for 23 from the field and 14 of 22 from the free-throw line, but he also had eight tur novers. Howard and Nelson combined for 26 of Orlando’s 34 field goals.

Bosh goes for 25, Heat win Game 1

MIAMI (AP) — Chris Bosh and LeBron James watched from afar when Dwyane Wade controlled the final portions of games during the Miami Heat’s championship run in 2006.

They got a closer look Saturday, when Wade helped save Miami from a Game 1 collapse.

Bosh had 25 points and 12 rebounds, James added 21 points and 14 rebounds, and Wade scored five of his 17 points in the final 1:34 as the Heat held off a huge Philadelphia comeback try and beat the 76ers 97-89 in the opener of their Eastern Conference quarterfinal series.

“The only number that matters right now is 1-0,” Wade said. “That’s all it’s about.”

Game 2 is Monday night.

Thaddeus Young had 20 points and 11 rebounds for the 76ers, while Jrue Holiday added 19 and Elton Brand finished with 17. It was the second time in 22 days that Philadelphia blew a big second-quarter lead in Miami: On March 25, the 76ers led by 16, and on Saturday, the margin was 14.

The Heat won both, and are now 4-0 against the 76ers this season.

“Second time in three weeks that we had a big lead and let it slip,” Brand said. “Right now, it’s the playoffs. Win these games or go home. So it’s more of a discouraging feeling knowing that we could have won these games.”

Also much like that March 25 game: Philadelphia gave itself a shot down the stretch.

The 76ers scored 12 straight points in the fourth quarter, closing to 88-87 — but never getting the lead back. Bosh made two free throws and Wade hit a tough bank shot to give

Miami a five-point edge. And after Young scored Philadelphia’s final points with 1:24 left, Wade sealed it with a pair of foul shots 14 seconds later.

“We’ll take this first win,” said Heat coach Erik Spoelstra, whose team has won 16 of its last 19 games overall. “Hopefully who we’ve been the last few weeks will be more who we’ll be the rest of the series, particularly offensively. We were not very efficient tonight.”

Wade, Bosh and James all were held under 50 percent shooting and Miami won anyway, in large part because the Heat held big edges in rebounding (52-39) and free throws.

Sixers coach Doug Collins spent much of Game 1 pointing out the game’s free-throw discrepancy to the officiating crew — Miami finished 31 for 39, while Philadelphia was only 12 for

15.

Afterward, he craftily took the high road.

“I could,” Collins said, when asked to explain the more-than-2-to-1 difference.

“My grandkids would lose their college fund. So I’ll have to dance around that one. I can’t respond to that.”

What was clear, however, was that Philadelphia’s fouls in the second quarter helped change the game.

“It’s kind of discouraging,” Holiday said, “But at the same time, we know we just have to keep at it. ... Calls are made and we have to fight through that.”

Just like the teams’ last regular-season meeting on March 25, the 76ers came out flying. They made eight of their first 10 shots, eventually running out to a 2511 lead. At period’s end, it was still 31-19 Philadelphia, on 61 percent shooting compared to 32 percent by

Miami.

Miami outscored Philadelphia 35-18 in the second quarter, and kept the lead — though far from easily — the rest of the way.

“No team is just going to lie down,” Bosh said. “You’re not going to play an 82game season and work this hard just to lie down when you get there. They’re a very gifted team. ... We do expect this series to have all close games. As long as we prepare for that and get that in our minds, we’ll be fine.”

Since the NBA went to best-of-seven opening rounds in 2003, No. 2 seeds that win Game 1 of their quarterfinal series have advanced 12 of 13 times, the lone exception being Dallas against San Antonio last year.

And when James and Wade get to enjoy 1-0 series leads, things tend to work out for them. The Heat have advanced all five times when taking a 1-0 lead with Wade on the team; the Cleveland Cavaliers won seven of eight series with James after winning Game 1s.

“It’s the postseason,” James said. “Just try to do whatever it takes to win.”

Brand’s rebound and short jumper with 7:58 left got Philadelphia within seven — the margin had been 16 late in the third quarter. And Wade went to the bench 38 seconds later with his fifth foul, but Miami stretched its cushion to 88-75 on a 3-pointer by James Jones, followed by James extending both arms skyward.

It was far from over, though Miami found a way to escape.

“It looked like they were going to run us out,” Collins said. “But we fought back.”

game.

“They got back into the game because their pitchers went out and did what we ask our pitchers to do,” he said. “When the game got tight, we got tight and went south of the border.”

Loera led NMMI with three hits and three RBIs in Game 2.

In Game 1, the Hawks went up 4-0 in the top of the second, but the Broncos answered with four runs of their own.

NMMI took the lead on an RBI single by Gonzalez in the third.

Howard took the lead for good with a three-run fourth and it tacked on three more runs in the sixth.

Johnnie Garrett, Brian Moneghan, Ullises Marrero and Loera had two hits each for NMMI in Game 1.

Mavs

Continued from Page B1

That came during a span with Dallas missing 10 consecutive field goals over a stretch of nearly 11 minutes after building a 10-point lead. Kidd’s stepback jumper with 5:28 left in the game ended that miserable spurt before Nowitzki took over.

Aldridge got off to a fast start with 11 points in the first 7 1⁄2 minutes of the game. That included eight points in a span of less than 2 minutes that he bookended with a pair of alley-oop dunks from Marcus Camby to put the Blazers up 15-14.

A long 3-pointer by Jason Terry put the Mavericks up 33-26. Portland cut the gap to 35-33 on

Batum’s bounce pass through the lane to Miller for a basket.

A putback dunk by Brendan Haywood ignited a half-ending 12-4 run.

That was the first of seven straight points for Dallas before Aldridge had another high-flying dunk with 3 minutes left in the half — this one on a pass from Miller — for his first basket since his early scoring flurry, and only other one before halftime.

After Portland scored the first six points of the second half, cutting the gap to 47-43, Kidd had consecutive 3-pointers.

Kidd ended up with the ball after missing another from beyond the arc, then got the ball to Shawn Marion for a 16-footer.

Less than 2 minutes later, Kidd hit another long jumper for a 57-47 lead.

With the two wins, Goddard’s record stands at 16-4.

Eunice 17, Dexter 12 DEXTER — Eunice plated at least three runs in four different innings and held off a late charge by the Demons to pick up a victory over Dexter, Saturday.

Leading 9-1 going to the bottom of the fourth, Dexter put up five runs to make it 9-6, but Eunice quickly answered in the fourth. The Cardinals plated three in the fourth and five more in the fifth before giving up six runs in the final two innings to provide the final margin.

“We had our chances. We took the lead in the first inning, but had some critical errors where we could have prevented them from scoring runs and it ended up costing us,” said Demon coach Archie Duran.

“They’re a good baseball team and we can’t make errors against them.

“We just have to prevent errors against that caliber of a team.”

Adam Brown took the loss in relief. After coming on for Francisco Duran, Brown gave up 11 runs on eight hits in 3 2⁄3 innings. Duran went the first 3 1⁄3 innings and allowed six runs on five hits.

Steven Marquez went 3 for 4 with a double, two singles and an RBI for Dexter (11-8, 1-2 District 42A). Ricardo Robles was 2 for 4 with two RBIs and Justin Salas was 2 for 4 with a double, single and three RBIs. Brenyn Marshall added two RBIs and Duran had an RBI. Eunice’s Tyler Almager hit two grand slams and had 13 RBIs to lead the Cardinals.

Elida 5-9, Lake Arthur 1-13 LAKE ARTHUR — Lake Arthur won Game 2 after dropping the first game of a doubleheader to Elida on Saturday.

Panther coach Jose Cruz Porras said that, in the first game, they couldn’t capitalize on scoring opportunities.

“You know, Game 1 was a pretty good game,” he said. “It was good defensively, except for the third inning. Offensively, we got runners on and, one time, left the bases loaded. There was another inning where we left runners on the corners. We just could not get them in.

“We did the reverse in Game 2. We were clicking on all cylinders. We got out of the shoots right away in the second game.”

3 Cavaliers have surgery

CLEVELAND (AP) — Cavaliers starting point guard Ramon Sessions has had surgery to repair a hernia.

The team says Sessions and rookie forwards Samardo Samuels and Semih Erden all underwent operations on Friday, two days after Cleveland’s season ended. The Cavs did not announce the surgeries until Saturday.

Samuels had surgery to repair a right wrist injury, and Erden had his left shoulder repaired.

Sessions started 38 games in his first season with the Cavs after coming over in a trade with Minnesota. He averaged 13.3 points and 5.2 assists.

Samuels averaged 7.8 points in 37 games — 10 starts — for Cleveland. Erden appeared in only four games for Cleveland after being acquired in a trade from Boston.

With the Pacers leading by 10, Deng hit two fr ee thr ows with 3:28 remaining to start the comeback. Noah followed with a tip-in and dunk to make it a four -point game, and the Bulls were on their way.

Exactly how far they’ll go remains to be seen, but they’r e certainly aiming high after securing home-court advantage thr oughout the playoffs. They won nine straight and 21 of 23 down the stretch, and anything less than a big run would be a big disappointment.

The Pacers were concerned late in the third quarter when Hansbrough was elbowed by Thomas as he was trying to r ebound a miss by Hansbr ough Rose. stayed down for several minutes and, still woozy, had to take a seat in the tunnel.

He eventually walked to the locker room on his own power. He returned with 5:33 remaining, and it looked as if he might

Teixeira drives in three as Yanks topple Rangers

NEW YORK (AP) — Freddy Garcia’s first scheduled start this season was wiped out by rain. The weather wasn’t much better when he finally got another chance to take the mound.

Garcia allowed two hits over six innings in his Yankees debut, Mark Teixeira drove in three runs and New York held off the Texas Rangers 5-2 on a bonechilling Saturday in the Bronx.

With temperatures in the mid-40s, Garcia (1-0) worked through steady rain showers and winds gusting to 30 mph to shut down the Texas offense. The only hits the veteran right-hander allowed were to Adrian Beltre in the first and David Murphy in the fourth.

“He pitched really good,” said Robinson Cano, who added a two-run homer in the eighth for the Yankees.

“He waited a long time for this.”

As the Yankees’ fifth starter, Garcia was supposed to start last week against the Minnesota Twins. When rain postponed the game, the well-traveled Garcia was pushed back more than a week, relegated once again to playing long toss and throwing bullpen sessions.

It sure must have kept him sharp. He needed to throw only 84 pitches against Texas.

“I’m really happy, thankful for starting,” said Gar-

cia, who did toss an inning of relief against Boston on April 10. “I’ve been waiting a couple of weeks and it came out good.”

He turned over a threerun lead to the bullpen, and Joba Chamberlain got through the seventh without trouble before Rafael Soriano struggled again in his new eighth-inning role.

The former Tampa Bay closer allowed run-scoring singles by Elvis Andrus and Michael Young that made it 3-2, and nearly a three-run homer by Beltre — the deep flyball landed in the seats just outside the right-field foul pole. Beltre eventually grounded into a double play.

“I’m sticking my head out and I thought it was foul, and I’m glad they called it that way,” Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. “The wind was blowing that way.”

Mariano Rivera worked around Yorvit Torrealba’s double in the ninth for his sixth save.

Indians 8, Orioles 3 CLEVELAND (AP) — Josh Tomlin delivered yet another quality start for Cleveland, Orlando Cabrera drove in four runs and the first-place Indians won their sixth straight at home on Saturday over the Baltimore Orioles, who have lost six in a row and are having trouble scoring.

Alex Gonzalez, right, is congratulated by teammates after hitting a sole home run in Atlanta’s win, Saturday.

Tomlin (3-0) gave up two runs — solo homers to Jake Fox and Luke Scott — and six hits in six innings.

Red Sox 4, Blue Jays 1 BOSTON (AP) — Josh Beckett had his second straight strong start, holding Toronto to one run over seven innings, and Jed Lowrie provided a spark at the top of Boston’s lineup with a two-run homer.

The win snapped a threegame losing streak for the Red Sox, who have the majors’ worst record at 310.

Travis Snider had an RBI single and stole a pair of bases for the Blue Jays.

Toronto lost for the sixth time in nine games.

Beckett (2-1), coming off a dominant outing in which he shut out the Yankees with 10 strikeouts over eight innings in a win last Sunday, struck out nine and walked two.

Royals 7, Mariners 0 KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Alex Gordon added three hits to his league-leading total and drove in two runs and Sean O’Sullivan outpitched Felix Hernandez, leading Kansas City past Seattle.

Mike Aviles had two hits and three RBIs as the Royals beat the Mariners for the third straight day and handed them their 11th loss in 13 games.

O’Sullivan (1-1) threw five shutout innings in his first start of the year. He allowed five hits and two walks, striking out four. He was helped by shortstop Alcides Escobar’s run-saving defensive play on a hard-hit grounder by Ichiro Suzuki, who was 0 for 5 and had his Kauffman Stadium hitting streak stopped at 16 games.

Only two of the five runs charged against Hernandez (1-2) were earned.

Rays 4, Twins 3 ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Ben Zobrist led off the ninth with a tying home run off Twins closer Joe Nathan (0-1) and Johnny Damon ended the game with a two-out single for Tampa Bay.

B.J. Upton walked and stole second. Nathan was replaced by Jose Mijares after walking Casey Kotchman and getting a flyball from John Jaso.

Mijares struck out pinchhitter Elliot Johnson for the second out before walking Sam Fuld to load the bases.

Damon then won it on his 2,583rd career hit — which tied him with Ernie Banks for 80th place all-time.

Juan Cruz (1-0) worked a scoreless ninth for the Rays, who have won five in a row.

Angels 7, White Sox 2 CHICAGO (AP) — Tyler Chatwood pitched seven impressive innings for his first major league win and Hank Conger hit a threerun homer to lead the Angels over the White Sox. After the start was delayed more than 2 hours by rain, the 21-year -old Chatwood (1-1) allowed just one run and five hits. The lone blemish was Carlos Quentin’s fifth-inning homer, his third of the season and the 100th of his career.

Howie Kendrick also homered and drove in three runs for the Angels. Leadoff man Maicer Izturis had three hits.

Gavin Floyd (1-1) took the loss, yielding six runs and eight hits over six innings.

He threw three wild pitches and allowed hits to the leadoff batter in each of the first four innings.

Giants 5, Diamondbacks 3 PHOENIX (AP) — Freddy Sanchez doubled in the tying run in the sixth inning, then put San Francisco up for good with a two-run single in the seventh and the Giants won their fourth in a row by beating the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-3 on Saturday night.

San Francisco starter Barry Zito sprained his right foot lunging for a bunt in the second inning and left the game. Replacement Guillermo Mota pitched a career-long 4 1-3 innings to get the victory. Mota (1-0) allowed one run on three hits, fanning four with no walks.

Buster Posey hit a tworun homer in the first inning off Joe Saunders (03), who gave up five runs on 12 hits in 6 2-3 innings.

Brian Wilson pitched a perfect ninth to give him a save in each of the Giants’ four straight wins.

Braves 4, Mets 2, Game 1 ATLANTA (AP) — Alex Gonzalez hit two of Atlanta’s four solo homers and the Braves finally provided some offense for Derek Lowe, beating the skidding New York Mets 4-2 on Saturday in the opener of a doubleheader.

Chipper Jones and Freddie Freeman also connected for the Braves, who finished with six hits.

Braves 4, Mets 0, Game 2 ATLANTA (AP) — Jair Jurrjens threw seven sharp innings in his return from the disabled list and the Atlanta Braves shut out the struggling New York Mets 40 Saturday night to complete a doubleheader sweep.

Jurrjens combined with George Sherrill and Scott Linebrink on a two-hitter.

In the opener, Alex Gonzalez hit two of Atlanta’s four solo homers and the Braves finally provided some offense for Derek Lowe in a 4-2 victory.

The Mets were swept in a doubleheader for the second time in three days to extend their losing streak to seven games, their longest since dropping 11 straight in 2004. Colorado swept the Mets in New York on Thursday.

Astros 5, Padres 3 HOUSTON (AP) — Pinchhitter Joe Inglet had a tiebreaking single in the seventh inning and the Houston Astros beat the San Diego Padres 5-3 Saturday night.

With the score tied 3-all, Inglet was batting for reliever Mark Melancon. He hit the first pitch from Chad Qualls for an RBI single.

Angel Sanchez also had a run-scoring single in the seventh.

Astros starter Nelson Figueroa settled in after allowing two first-inning runs. He went 6 2-3 innings with five strikeouts and two walks.

Melancon (1-0) entered with runners on first and third and got Orlando Hudson to hit a low fly to left that Carlos Lee made a diving catch on to end the inning and keep the score tied at 3.

Brandon L yon got his third save in four chances.

Reds 11, Pirates 2 CINCINNATI (AP) — Ramon Hernandez got one right there.

Looking for a pitch he could hit into the outfield for a sacrifice fly, the Reds catcher got one he could hit a long way. He broke open a close game with his sixth career grand slam, and Cincinnati overpowered the Pirates 11-2 on Saturday, sending Pittsburgh to its fifth loss in six games.

“We scored a lot of runs today,” Hernandez said.

“Especially after (getting) just one run last night, it gives you a little confidence back.”

Hernandez’s fifth-inning homer was his third hit off James McDonald (0-1), who let a tied game get away quickly. The Reds sent 10 batters to the plate for seven runs in the inning, capped by Drew Stubbs’ two-run homer.

Cubs 8, Rockies 3 DENVER (AP) — Casey Coleman scattered four hits while working into the sixth inning and Starlin Castro went 4 for 5 with a threerun homer in Chicago’s 8-3 win over Colorado on Saturday night that snapped the Rockies’ seven-game winning streak.

Alfonso Soriano also went deep for the Cubs, whose win ended a six-game skid at Coors Field that dated to Aug. 9, 2009.

The Rockies, who were missing Carlos Gonzalez (soreness) and Todd Helton (rest) from their starting lineup, hadn’t been blown out all year, losing just twice in their first 13 games, both in extra innings.

Jason Hammel (1-1) became the first Rockies starter to lose a game all season, allowing three runs on seven hits over six innings.

Brendan Steele steals lead with 68 at Texas Open

SAN ANTONIO (AP) — PGA Tour rookie Brendan Steele birdied Nos. 17 and 18 for a 4-under 68 on Saturday, grabbing sole possession of the Texas Open lead after beginning the day tied with a whopping six other players for the top spot.

The 28-year-old Californian put his third shot within 15 feet on the par-5 18th, then sunk the putt for his sixth birdie — offsetting a pair of bogeys.

“I decided to play it a little more conservative and laid it up, and it paid off,” Steele said of the birdie to end his round.

That late surge was enough for a one-stroke lead over another up-andcommer, second-year PGA Tour pro Cameron Tringale, who led by two after 16 holes but hooked his tie shot on No. 18 into the deep rough — almost reaching a creek. He recovered on the approach, only to miss a 13-foot putt and settle for a 4-under 68.

“I drove it left. I figured if I hit a good drive ... I’d be able to look at it in two, so I just swung hard,” said T ringale, who played at Georgia Tech and now lives in Las Vegas.

“I laid up to a pretty good

yardage and then just misjudged the wind, really,” he said. “Came up short, which was a bad mistake, given all the room behind the hole.”

Third-round winds were

calmer but still blew to nearly 30 mph at times, after strong gusts Friday saw the field struggle to a second-round scoring average of 75.289, the highest on Tour since the firstround of the 2008 British Open. Strong winds are forecast once again during Sunday’s final round.

“There’s going to be good shots that don’t end up good and bad shots that end up worse,” Steele said.

Another rookie and Californian, Kevin Chappell (70)

and 30-year -old Brandt Snedeker (70) were tied for third at 5 under. Steele, Tringale and Chappell, who led UCLA to an NCAA title in 2008, have just a combined 62 starts on tour, while Snedeker’s only PGA Tour victory came at the 2007 Wyndham Championship.

“There’s a lot of younger players getting on Tour quicker now than there ever has been and I think that’s really been the difference,” Tringale said. He added that

he is still new enough on tour that almost no one pronounces Tringale (Tren-galEE) correctly, instead calling him “Triangle” “Trin-gle” “Trin-nail” “Tri-nail” and a host of other names.

Steele said he’s never felt so much pressure on Tour as he will teeing off tomorrow with the lead.

“I definitely haven’t been in this position,” he said, adding that a win at the 7,435-yard TPC San Antonio “would validate a lot of things in my career as far

Masters champion Charl Schwartzel watches his tee shot on No. 4 in the second round of the Malaysian Open.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia (AP) — Masters champion Charl Schwartzel narrowly made the cut Saturday to join joint leaders Rory McIlroy and Alexander Noren in the third round of the Malaysian Open.

Defending champion Noh Seung-yul of South Korea was not as lucky when the second round of the rain-disrupted tournament was completed Saturday. Officials were considering extending the tournament by an extra day because of bad weather.

Schwartzel and Noh were among 77 players who were unable to complete their second round Friday after rain and lightning halted play for nearly three hours.

With the cut set at 1-over 145, Schwartzel survived with a 144 after shooting a second-round 71. Noh was 145.

McIlroy shrugged off his recent final-round collapse at the Masters, sinking eight birdies Friday to lead the tournament with Noren of Sweden at 11-under 133.

The pair are a stroke ahead of England’s Simon Dyson.

Stephen Gallacher of Scotland, 17-year-old Italian Matteo Manasserro and Australia’s Brett Rumford are tied for third at 137. World No. 1 Martin Kaymer of Germany is 3under 141.

Officials from the Asian and European Tours — who cosanction the tournament — are expected to decide Sunday whether to extend the Malaysian Open to Monday for the first time. In 2006, the tournament at the Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club was shortened to 54 holes due to heavy rain.

being a guy that’s just trying to feel his way out here right now as a rookie.”

Steele began his round tied for first at 3 under with Chappell, Snedeker, Geoff Ogilvy, Rich Beem, Kevin Sutherland and Charley Hoffman. The seven-way tie was the most crowded leaderboard on the PGA tour in a decade. Seven players tied after 36 holes hadn’t been seen on the tour since the 1977 Westchester. The record was an eight-way tie at the 2001 Greater Hartford Open.

Tied for fifth at 4 under after three rounds were Augusta, Georgia-native Charles Howell III, who had four straight birdies on the back nine to complement a birdie and a bogey on the front.

“You’ve got a drivable green on 14 that you can get home in two on, so there are some opportunities out here. But I think the play on this golf course is, keep the ball in play and take it when you can get it,” Howell said.

“It’s easy to get in trouble too.”

Even with Howell at 4 under was defending Texas Open champion Adam Scott (70) and Pat Perez who tied the mark for Saturday’s best round with a 5-under 67 at a tournament whose motto is “Unapologetically Texan.”

Also shooting 5 under was Sweden-born Fredrik Jacobson, who finished second to Scott here last year, and had seven birdies to offset a pair of bogeys and move to 2 under, tied for tenth.

Lola Eva Lobley was born in Fort Sumner, Sept. 19, 1919, to John and Eva Lobley. She was the fourth of nine children, all born in the family home, to these hard-working pioneer New Mexico settlers. Here, in this small community, where the family farm and orchard were located, she met her lifelong mate, James William “J.W.” Patterson Jr. They were married in 1937, and eventually raised five children. Her husband was a licensed pharmacist, which brought them to Roswell, where they remained for the rest of their lives. They created a wonderful loving home for their children and Lola worked tirelessly for her family. Lola was also an artist who loved painting with oils, and a seamstress who created anything from hats to evening gowns and other garments.

In 1978, she lost her youngest son William David “Billy” Patterson, in an unfortunate accident.

Later, in 1985, she lost her loving husband and soulmate. In 2003, her firstborn, Sherry Ann Knight, lost a long and courageous battle with cancer. Lola rarely left the side of her dying daughter, staying with her until the end.

Surviving, are her three remaining children, Anita Nelson, of Sequin, Texas, James E. Patterson and his wife Terry, and T rish LeMay and her husband Rodney, all of Roswell; her six grandchildren, Kevin Knight, Jon Knight, Todd Knight, Mary Louise Luensmann, Jon Nelson Jr. and John LeMay; 10 greatgrandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.

Lola was first preceded in death by her father J.E. Lobley; then her brother Howard Lobley, of Roswell.

Later, her mother Eva Lobley, who lived to be 100 years of age, passed away, followed by her sister Vi Clark, of Roswell, and then recently, another brother, Harold Lobley, of Wichita Falls, Texas. Her surviving siblings are Grady Lobley, of Midland, Texas, Stanley Lobley, of Wichita Falls, Jean Puckett, of Moriarty,

Jerry Lobley, of Texline, Texas, and Larry Lobley, of Wichita Falls.

Lola was a steadfast member of the South Main Church of Christ for more than 50 years. She rarely missed a service until she started having health issues. Her church family and friends have already expressed many, many beautiful thoughts and prayers. She will be greatly missed by all who ever knew her. Her smile would light up a room and her wit and humor would keep everyone laughing.

Throughout all the trials of her life, she remained a very positive person.

The family would like to express a special thanks to her neighbors Jerry and Jo Janow and to Randy and Aaron McGuire for taking special care of her over the years.

Honorary pallbearers will be Kevin Knight, Jon Knight, Todd Knight, Jon Nelson and John LeMay. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations please be made to New Mexico Christian Childrens Home, 1356 New Mexico 236, Portales, NM 88130.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Ballard Funeral Home and Crematory. An online registry can be accessed at ballardfuneralhome.com.

God saw you were getting tired, and a cure was not to be.

So he put his ar ms around you, and whispered, “Come, go with me.”

With tear ful eyes we watched you suffer, and saw you fade away.

Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands to rest.

God broke our hearts to prove, he only takes the best.

It’s lonesome here without you.

We miss you more each day.

Life doesn’t seem the same since you have gone away.

When days are sad and lonely, we seem to hear your whisper, “Cheer up and carry on.”

Each time we see your picture, you seem to smile and say, “Don't cry, I’m in God’s

hands, we’ll meet again someday.”

Government finances

Dear Editor: Congress has kept the gover nment going by cutting several billion dollars from the budget ... especially from programs that benefit ordinary people. We would not be in this fiscal mess if Bush had not started two unnecessary wars and cut taxes for the richest Americans and corporations. We were told that these tax cuts would stimulate the economy: Well they haven’t. The tax reductions of 2003 gave Steve Forbes $90,000 for each of his millions. I got $200.

General Electric, the biggest corporation in the U.S., paid no taxes in 2010.

When Clinton left office we had a budget surplus, but Bush ate that up right away and borrowed trillions more for his pet wars.

Ronald Reagan, that icon of the Republicans, raised taxes in order to bring us out of a slump and the Republicans love and revere his memory.

I am somewhat confused as to what is best for the country. Should we borrow, spend and pay high interest or should we tax those who have profited the most?

John Ford Roswell

Martinez violates the constitution

Dear Editor: In just three short months as governor, Susana Martinez has now twice been judged to have violated the constitution of our state. First the New Mexico Supreme Court ruled against her when she attempted to prevent the implementation of both a rule aimed at curbing greenhouse gas emissions and a measure which would control pollution from the dairy industry.

Now the court has ordered that two members of the Public Employee Labor Relations Board be reinstated, declaring her arbitrary removal of them to be an unconstitutional abuse of her authority.

It is troubling to find a former D.A. acting with such disrespect for the law.

Ellen Wedum Cloudcroft

Fence makes sense

Dear Editor, Just a few random thoughts in response to the “committee of one” opposing the fence to secure Spring River Golf Course. I do not recall Parks and Recreation giving notice to commence projects that protect the public, but fencing has been a priority for several years.

Apparently if we are talking about a view, 60-foot healthy elm trees, “good,” 6foot see-through fence, “bad.” You cannot have it both ways, sorry I did not make the rule, and logic just works that way.

Moving along we go to overstatement of the costs on to the reason for the fence “is to keep everyone off this property except golfers” Duh! It is a golf course. It’s not a walking path, not a jogging trail, not a playground, fishing, swimming, or bird watching area, it’s a golf course. Repeat it 50 times with me until you get it. Golf course, golf course, golf course!

My wife walks at Cielo Grande and I play golf at Spring River and so far we have managed to avoid getting them confused. One cannot hit golf balls in any park in Roswell and rightly so (safety), therefore why would any reasonably logical person be on a golf course when not

playing golf? The previously mentioned healthful activities all have facilities in Roswell provided by the tax payers that are free to the public. Golf is not free, golfers pay for their chosen activity.

The city has a responsibility to the public to fence certain areas for safety and liability issues, (zoo, tennis courts, baseball fields, and the list goes on.) The unsecured golf course is an invitation to vandals, particularly unsupervised youth in the summer as evidence by sand rakes thrown in the ponds, empty beer cans, trash and used condoms, not to mention extensive damage to the greens and restrooms.

Word has it some pinhead called Parks and Recreation to complain of the fencing because he walks his dog at night on the golf course. When asked why not go across the street to Cahoon Park, the reply was his dog liked to swim in the pond on the golf course. Several logical responses come to mind, 1. Leash law. 2.

Doggie clean up bags, (I doubt it), 3. Liability. Walking on a golf course day or night invites liability for the city. In case of a lawsuit over personal injury who do you think gets sued, the city or landowners?

Surely people know it’s a golf course when they buy property bordering it.

Reminds me of people who buy homes near an airport and complain of the noise.

Complaints of flying golf balls hitting homes, so golf course personnel plant trees for protection, homeowner complains of trees blocking view. How do you win?

Lets all take a deep breath, no I didn’t say hold your breath and turn purple till you get your way. In the immortal words of Sgt. Hulka in the movie “Stripes,” “lighten up Francis.”

Kent Perry Roswell

Creating jobs is the priority

Dear Editor; Jobs, Jobs, Jobs. Where are they going?

Downhill since the tea party convinced the Independents to vote against their best interests last November. The Republicans; worse yet, the tea partiers in control of the House is not in anybody’s best interest ... except the wealthy, big business, and some small business. By small, I don’t mean the mom and pop stores and farms around Roswell, but rather the 10 to 25 million dollar a year enterprises. For the rest of us, we lose.

Before the last November elections we were inundated with vitriolic TV spots promising that if we went with the Republicans, they would provide the jobs, jobs, jobs which they said Obama didn’t provide in his almost two years on the job.

Remember though, that while the Republicans were riding high during their eight years, not only did they give us a job loss of nearly ten million jobs, but a Great Recession to boot. Unfortunately, Obama was only able to end the Great Recession and get a net gain of only one million jobs so far. This despite the constant negative forces from the “Grand Old Party” of No. It seems that the mantra of jobs, jobs, jobs has been replaced by cut, cut, cut.

This was clearly revealed on Feb. 15, 2011, when Republican Speaker of the House John Boehner said: “In the last two years, under President Obama, the federal government has added 200,000 new federal jobs. “If some of those jobs

are lost, so be it. We’re broke.” Not only does he show little concern for the unfortunate, but he lies about being broke. We are not broke! The sky is not falling! We need jobs, jobs, jobs to put money in the hands of the people who will spend it and thus increase revenue and stimulate business to get out of this morass ... and then start spending wisely.

I interpret this Republican philosophy as “if you can’t get a job and take care of your family, don’t worry, we’re going to force layoffs so that you will have company and you won’t feel so bad.” Contrast that with Abraham Lincoln’s words which go something like this: “If your neighbor has a house and you don’t, it is better to build your own house than to tear down your neighbors’.”

The conservatives have lost sight of reality. Their rallying cry is to “reduce the debt and deficit to protect their grandchildren;” which is an important goal. But it should be done sensibly and not jeopardize the present for some time in the distant future. Responsible economists (Nobel class), say that the debt and deficit problem is not a crisis now. It will be in the future, but not now. Providing jobs and employment to grow the economy is the real crisis that will keep us from sliding back into recession ... or worse.

Sincerely, Chuck Russell Roswell

Marxists need to go

Dear Editor: With Obamacare, we got on the road to serfdom. Marxists now control half our economy and all they need is for us to pay for their welfare state. If they could, they’d seize the rich man’s wealth and dig deep into your pocket and still not fill their bellies. No matter how the Supreme Court rules, we’ll repeal Obamacare not only to repudiate Marxists, but to reject all future judges and justices who’d take your economic liberty away. There are four Marxists on the Supreme Court who’d force you to buy insurance, and Democrats seek to disqualify any of the five justices who’ll rule against them.

Next time you meet a Democrat, tell them to raise a hand so they can put it over their shoulder and pat themselves on the back. Congratulate them for the high price of gas and groceries. Tell them borrowing trillions of dollars weakens our currency. Marxists are profoundly ignorant of economics.

They think the wealthy won’t pass the

cost on to us when they raise their taxes.

They say big spending cuts will jeopardize our economic recovery (the opposite is true) while spending $5 trillion we don’t have is OK. They refuse to drill for oil and burn coal to save the planet. They’re not that dumb or deluded; they’re dishonest.

They’re lowering our standard of living, so we’ll become dependent on them. They use our money to get people to vote for them. If you’re a taxpayer, you pay the medical bills of a family of four making $40,000. How much do you pay for your insurance and what does it get you? Will you give it up to have the government stand between you and your doctor?

We cut last year’s budget by $38 billion.

Why? To allow Marxists to borrow and spend a trillion dollars every year forever?

If you want to keep your country from going broke, demand that Congress pass a Balanced Budget Amendment before agreeing to raise the debt ceiling. Don’t give in to extortion. Demand they pay our military and those on Social Security and forgo their own pay if they choose to shut down the government.

Becoming debt free and igniting our economy by cutting taxes is the only way back to prosperity. Marxists are incapable of doing either. They don’t produce a thing or make a profit. Democrats limit our economic freedom by consuming our money, and they’d still be bankrupting our country if we hadn’t voted them out of the People’s House. In 2012, we’ll make Obama one and done and reclaim the Senate. We’ll get people working again and retain our freedom by gutting the welfare state Democrats created.

Your job is to tell Sens. Jeff Bingaman and Tom Udall to balance the budget within five years or resign so our governor can appoint those who will.

Respectfully, your knuckle dragging, Bible banging, flag waving neighbor, Ralph Rivera Roswell

Cartoons enjoyed

Dear Editor: We want to thank Keith Bell for his cartoons, his gift for art and his oftentimes amusing messages are appreciated.

The recent one about the census brought a smile, we have had some mysterious happenings in our lives that cannot be explained and one thought rings true in “We shall see but a little way if we require to understand what we see.”

Time to pony up for a ticket to ‘War Horse’

NEW YORK (AP) — At the end of “War Horse,” the crowd at a recent curtain call rose to cheer a couple of real thoroughbreds.

Not actors — horses.

Humans are almost beside the point in Lincoln Center’s staging of “War Horse,” the astonishing World War I epic that opened Thursday at the Vivian Beaumont Theater following an award-winning run in London. The biggest claps here are reserved for a pair of equine puppets.

Based on the best-selling 1982 children’s novel by Michael Morpurgo and adapted by Nick Stafford, “War Horse” tells the story of the friendship between an English farm boy and his clever horse Joey set against the Great War. The puppeteers — three for the big horses, one or two for the others — provide the whinnies, snorts and snuffles of the animal in such an astonishingly lifelike way that their human manipulators — visible in period clothing — melt away.

Created by the Handspring Puppet Company of South Africa, the puppets are really more like exoskeletons with shredded leather for tails and pointy ears and limbs manipulated by levers and buttons inside. For adult horses, two humans are hunched inside the body and one stands alongside its neck offering the main sounds and moving its head.

The audience meets Joey for the first time as a fearful foal and watches his relationship with his young owner, Albert (a hardworking Seth Numrich), deepen. When Britain is sucked into war, Joey is sold to the British cavalry and later captured by Germans on the Western Front.

Albert — sent a sketch pad of drawings from the British soldier taking care of Joey — then joins the Army to find his beloved friend, risking his life among the barbed wire and cannon fire in the Somme Valley.

The cast of 35 includes people — British, German, soldier and civilian — and puppeteers who manipulate four horses; some actors pull double duty as both horse and human. The stage at Lincoln Center can barely contain all the action and, indeed, both horses and human characters race up and down the aisles.

The acting — human, that is — is a little over-the-top, but that’s to be expected from material inspired by a kids’ book. The reason to go see the show is its inventiveness, visual punch and its obvious reverence for the way animals move and behave. Look for a wayward goose to almost steal the show.

Directors Marianne Elliott and Tom Morris have their hands full juggling both beast and Homo sapiens, and they have been aided by a reunion of the production’s acclaimed London design team.

A projection screen — cleverly in the shape of a torn piece of the sketch pad — hangs over the stage, showing lovely animated videos by Leo Warner and Mark Grimmer.

The music by Adrian Sutton and songs by John Tams alternate from battle melodies to moving violin-and-accordion English folk. Paule Constable’s lighting — particularly in the battle scenes — is heart-pounding and stunning.

And put your hooves together for Toby Sedgwick, who is director of movement and horse choreography.

The show opened in 2007 at the National Theatre of Great Britain and transferred to the West End two years later, where it is still selling out.

Laying a foundation for success

The work of the ENMU-R Foundation helps ENMU-R foster student success by providng funding for the school’s scholarships and programs.

Metro Photo

The ENMU-R Foundation works to support students and the Roswell community Scholarship.

ERIN GREEN RECORD VISTAS EDITOR

The Eastern New Mexico UniversityRoswell Foundation helps students become a success every day.

Through annual and planned giving, scholarships and endowments and through community events highlighting the university’s work, the non-profit organization was created to provide a structure in which individuals, corporations and other private-sector entities may support the university and its work.

The foundation was formed in 1999 through the merger of the Oilfield Training Center and the old ENMU-R Foundation. The new foundation seeks to provide financial and material support for the promotion of education and training at ENMU-R, including fostering educational opportunities and the granting of scholarships and fellowships for academic, career and technical training.

A few upcoming events will highlight the foundation and its work supporting ENMU-R, said Donna Oracion, college development coordinator.

“We’re trying to be as visible as we can (within the community),” Oracion said.

The first event, the 10th annual Foundation for the Future banquet, will be held at 6 p.m., Thursday, April 21, at the Roswell Convention and Civic Center, 912 N. Main St. The annual foundation banquet is held to raise awareness about the work of the foundation and is a time to publicly recognize and thank those who have helped the university grow.

Two awards will be given at the banquet.

Bill Owen, former Roswell mayor and current vice president and exploration manager for David Petroleum Corporation, will receive the President’s Distinguished Service award, and the Altrusa Club of Roswell will receive the Diamond Service Award.

“Owen was always very supportive of our campus and got (ENMU-R) involved in the All-America City competition in 2001,” Oracion said. “Altrusa has awarded scholarships to students for more than 20 years, and our GED scholarships as well.”

Teen has more interest in texting than family

QUESTION: My teenager is constantly texting or on the phone and is not showing any interest in doing things with the family. Do you have some suggestions on how we can re-engage our child and help her want to do things with the family again?

JULI: No doubt about it, technology is a significant obstacle for communication in the average American family, especially with teens in the home. Here’s a two-prong strategy to deal with it: First of all, set boundaries on the use of technology in your home. Don’t make this about your teenager; make it about the kind of home environment that you want to establish. Some reasonable and helpful boundaries include no technology at meal times, during carpool, or in the bedroom. Set those boundaries for yourself as well as for your kids.

Honestly, I am just as guilty as my 13-year-old son is when it comes to letting technology interrupt family time.

Sure, I don’t text someone every three seconds or play video games, but how often am I pulled away from my family to check email or take a quick call?

Second, make family time a priority. Often, we as parents decide to have family time on the spur of the moment when our schedule finally clears. We expect our kids to drop everything and be excited about bonding with Mom and Dad. Plan regular family times during which your kids know that you expect them to be engaged. These can include a dinner routine of talking about your day, Friday night game or movie nights, or a planned weekend get-

Don’t take it personally if your teen still prefers her cell phone to you. Even when your kids are less than enthusiastic about a family event, it still provides a critical connection with you. ** ** ** QUESTION: In order to tighten up the family budget, we recently got rid of our premium satellite TV package and switched to basic cable. But that’s not cheap, either. Can you suggest other ways to trim our entertainment budget without going totally TV-free?

JIM: First, let me say that there are worse things than going TV-free. The Daly household eliminated the nightly TV routine from our home long ago, and we haven’t regretted it for a minute. Don’t knock it ‘til you’ve tried it!

However, if you’re not ready to take that step, there's still a way to enjoy TV without paying for it on a monthly basis. The New York Times reports that a growing number

Onion dip, more on ‘Creative Living’

Infor mation on using left-over gluten-free bread, cooking onions, and choosing happiness will be the featured topics on “Creative Living” on Tuesday, April 19, at 9:30 p.m., and on Thursday, April 21, at noon.

All times are Mountain.

Carol Fenster explains that since gluten-free bread costs more than regular bread it’s very important to make the most of every slice — even stale, leftover bread — and she’ll show how. Her business is Savory Palate, Inc., and she’s from Centennial, Colo.

Kim Reddin represents the National Onion Association in Greeley, Colo., and she’s going to demonstrate how to let onions be the life of your next party by demonstrating some fun and easy recipes with unique serving ideas, including an onion bowl. It’s great for dips and salsas at casual get-togethers or even special events.

Author Jane Thompson will talk about how judging, blaming and negativity prevent happiness in life. She admonishes that people recovering from divorce accept responsibility and

move on and turn each negative into a positive. Her thoughts are based on her book, “Choosing Happiness After Divorce.” She lives in Memphis, Tenn.

Infor mation on making beaded bracelets, making a tuffet and cooking with pecans will be the featured topics on “Creative Living” on Tuesday, April 19, at noon and on Saturday, April 23, at 2 p.m. All times are Mountain.

Sisters, designers and authors Liz Gourley and Ellen Talbott will show how to make popular stretchy bracelets using various beads. Their latest book is “Quick & Easy Beaded Jewelry.” Gourley lives in Ventura, Calif., and Talbott is from El Cajon, Calif.

Designer and sewing expert Jana Beus of Simplicity Pattern Co., will show how to make a tuffet, or hassock or foot stool, for the home. She’s from Sandy, Utah.

Ann Cox will dispel the notion that pecans are just for preparing desserts. She will demonstrate a variety of breakfast recipes that incorporate nutritious, delicious pecans. Cox

represents the Texas Pecan Growers Association in College Station, Texas.

Girls use Facebook to claim prom dress

NEW YORK (AP) — Teenage girls largely live in a lookalike culture, wearing the same styles that they got in the same stores as their friends. On prom night, though, the idea is to stand out, making sure no one arrives to the big dance in the same outfit.

To ensure their uniqueness — after they’ve shopped in faraway malls and tapped into store registries — girls are using social media to claim dibs on their dresses.

A photo of Ashley McGowan’s floor -length black gown is on the prom Facebook page for her school in suburban Somers, N.Y. She’s relieved that only one other classmate has posted a black frock.

“There’s an unwritten rule: the moment you buy it, you post it so it’s ‘your dress,”’ explains McGowan.

A fashion advice website, Fashism.com, has even launched a Facebookbased registry called “Got Dibs” that allows users to track who’s wearing what to which high school event, and get feedback on their outfit before they wear it.

Amy Avitable, senior vice president of marketing for Lord & Taylor, which is partnering with Fashism.com on Got Dibs, says the project is a way to give girls an insurance policy that they’ll have something special, while making sure they won’t be secondguessing their outfit at the last minute.

Here’s how Got Dibs works: Girls can snap photos of themselves with the tags still on the dress and get instant advice on what shoes to wear, if the hemline is right or if the silhouette is flattering.

The opinions of peers, whether they are best friends or online “friends” from around the country, are key to the tech-savvy, fashion-loving consumer, says Ashley Granata, Fashism.com’s co-founder

and chief marketing officer.

But for prom-goers, it’s the claim on a dress that matters most, she adds.

“When I was a junior, a freshman came to my prom in the same dress. I was mortified,” Granata recalls.

“It was a pink satin, princess cut with scalloped neckline. I thought it was interesting and beautiful. I was known to have individual sense of style — and then this trendy girl shows up in the same thing. Now I can say it’s really funny, but I was really upset about it.”

Hollywood stars make a strong impression by owning their looks, and teenage girls want to do the same, says Jane Keltner de Valle, fashion news director of Teen Vogue. They mimic celebrities with elaborate fashion fantasies and hair and makeup plans, but

they also play the part of stylist by scouring magazines and websites for months to get ideas, then try to secure exclusivity.

All the preparation fuels anticipation of the prom, which girls start thinking about months in advance.

They build it up — with help from movies, TV, fashion magazines and maybe even mom — as their big red-carpet moment.

“Girls feel tremendous pressure to get it right,” says Keltner de Valle. “They don’t want to feel like a copy of anyone else, and she also doesn’t want to be compared to anyone else.

They don’t want to wake up to the Facebook comparison of: ‘Who wore it best?”’

Staking an early claim on a dress may help girls breathe easier. And then it’s the girl who doesn’t follow these new etiquette

rules who risks rebuke, Keltner de Valle says.

Of course, she adds, it shouldn’t be that way: Girls should be celebrating who they are at the prom and not make it all about “the dress,” but, for better or worse, that is part of the tradition.

McGowan, a senior, says she has put a lot of thought into her dress and she’s sure she doesn’t want it to be a “typical prom dress.”

“I want to look different than all my friends,” she says, and she thinks she will be in a halter -top, floor -length black dress that she describes as “elegant.”

She shopped for the dress on her own, and asked the salesperson at an independent boutique to direct her to the racks intended for other more sophisticated formal occasions.

Katharine Imrie, a high school senior in Wausau, Wis., is still looking for her dress; she’s thinking purple or red to help her stand out from the crowd.

The prom wardrobe is “the buzz around school right now,” she says. Some of her friends have traveled about two hours away to Madison so they’d be able to pick from more stores offering a wider variety of dresses. “The stores in town here have a lot of the same things,” Imrie says.

The typical girl tries on 30 dresses before making a decision, says Lord & Taylor’s Avitable. It’s not price nor style that ends up driving the purchase, she observes, it’s the confidence that comes with a particular dress.

McGowan says a unique look on prom night will help leave a lasting impression on friends and classmates. “The prom is your last big hurrah of high school,” she said. “You want people to remember you at this moment of you looking your best.”

of families are saving money by canceling their cable service altogether and attaching a good, old-fashioned antenna to their TV sets.

There are a number of TV antenna models available and a decent one will generally cost anywhere between $25 and $150. But that’s a one-time expense. There’s no monthly fee after that. Of course, you won’t get the wide variety of sports, movies and other programming that cable offers. But you’ll get more than enough channels to keep up with the news and weather and maybe a few of your favorite shows. And if you live in a large urban area, your choices expand dramatically. The Nielsen Group reports that there are more than 40 free broadcast channels available in Los Angeles, for example.

Just think — your parents and grandparents survived for decades watching only a handful of channels on broadcast TV. I doubt whether any of them would suggest they were somehow “missing out” by not having hundreds and hundreds of channels to choose from. You and your family might consider the same arrangement and save yourselves hundreds of dollars a year in the process! ** ** ** 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.

Few blacks attend Civil War anniversary events CHARLESTON, S.C. (AP) — As cannons thudded around Charleston Harbor this week in commemoration of the start of the war that extinguished slavery, the audiences for the 150th-anniversary events were nearly all-white. Even black scholars lecturing about black Union troops and the roots of slavery gazed out mostly on white faces.

The reasons blacks stayed away are not exactly a mystery: Across Dixie, Civil War commemorations have tended to celebrate the Confederacy and the battlefield exploits of those who fought for the slaveholding South.

But the National Park Service is trying to make anniversary events over the next four years more hospitable to black people. “We’re trying to broaden the story to go beyond the battlefields to the home front and to talk about 150 years later, if much of the reason for the war was freedom for enslaved people, how far have we come?� said Carol Shively, a spokeswoman for the Park Service sesquicentennial in the Southeast.

ment of Fort Sumter that plunged the nation into its bloodiest war was marked in Charleston on Tuesday by hundreds of people.

Only a few blacks attended a pre-dawn concert of period music or were on hand for a ceremony re-creating the first shot a few hours later. One of the black people present was a Union reenactor who threw a wreath into the water and then saluted. “I think it’s very painful and raw� for blacks to attend such activities, said the Rev. Joseph Darby of Charleston, who is black and was not there for the Fort Sumter commemoration. “If you’re going to be authentic in the way you re-create it, it would be hard to filter out the triumphal air of the firing on Fort Sumter.�

On Wednesday, the Park Service sponsored events about blacks outside its Fort Sumter tour boat dock. It included lectures on slavery and on the Union 54th Massachusetts, the black unit depicted in the 1989 movie “Glory� starring Matthew Broderick, Denzel Washington and

“It’s almost like celebrating with the enemy,� she said. “I personally began to have a feeling of why would I want to be a part of it?�

The national NAACP has said the activities should neither romanticize the South nor ignore that slavery was the principal cause of the war. Both Scott and Darby credit the National Park Service with working hard to make events inclusive.

Earlier this year, the Park Service worked with Kennesaw State University in Georgia to conduct focus groups with blacks on the Civil War. Some of the participants worried that the Civil War as taught in the South reflects only the Confederate view and that the history of blacks is misinterpreted. “We need to overcome the shame and embarrassment of slavery — to see humanity� in the stories told by the parks, one participant said.

This week in Charleston “we presented the most historically accurate depictions of the American Civil War,� said Park Service spokeswoman Nancy Gray. “We didn’t count demo-

of Charleston by Union troops.

Joe McGill, who gave the lecture Wednesday on the 54th Massachusetts, said he wasn’t surprised by the turnout and that generally when he gives lectures, the audience is mainly white.

But he thinks more blacks should attend 150thanniversary events. “When you have the same celebration 50 years prior to this we were a missing element ago because we were involved in a bigger fight,� he said, referring to the civil rights movement. “Now if there is an element of the story being told that we should challenge, we need to challenge those things.�

Darby, the minister, said one sure way to interest more blacks in the commemorations would be to remove the Confederate banner that has flown on the Statehouse grounds in Columbia since the Civil War centennial. “There would be a lot of black folks who would come out if our Legislature would in 2015 of ficially decide the war was over and take the flag down,� he said.

DEAR ABBY: I was recently invited to a relative’s home because my nephew was introducing his fiancee, “Macy,” to the family. I asked my nephew what gift Macy might like, and he suggested a sweater and told me her size. I bought her a lovely one — at least, I thought it was lovely.

After Macy tried it on, I was shocked when she handed it back to me and said she didn’t like it. I couldn’t exchange or return it because it had been purchased from a store where I live, and this store doesn’t have a branch in their state. I took the gift home with me and got a refund. Now I don’t know what to do.

Because Macy gave it back to me, does she forfeit the gift?

Should I send her the amount of the store refund? Do I owe her anything as a substitute for the gift she refused? She will be a part of our family, and I need to know what to do if this happens again. I’d appreciate your thoughts.

— Tamara, Tupelo, Miss.

Tamara, I like the use of the word “puddle.” This means a bunch of material is at the bottom to keep insects, etc., from coming through.

HHHHH Dear Heloise: I have numerous magazine subscriptions. The publishers send repeated notices that subscriptions are ending when the subscription still has months left. I notice the deals get better; each time, the cost is lower, and they have even offered a free gift upon receiving the renewal confirmation. I renewed a subscription, only to have the publisher offer a free gift with the next day’s mail. I called and demanded the free gift, as I had just mailed the renewal, and the publisher honored it.

G-20 nations reach agreement on imbalances

WASHINGTON (AP) — The world’s major nations have put together a new monitoring process that they hope will halt the types of destabilizing economic imbalances that contributed to the worst global downturn since World War II. Finance officials in the United States and other members of the Group of 20 major economies said the new program will closely follow key measurements of economic health such as government budget and trade deficits, personal savings levels and investment flows between nations.

The hope is that the monitoring process will highlight problems before they become so big that they pose a threat to global growth. But the deal announced Friday by the G-20 left many questions unanswered about just how effective the new procedures will be.

Global financial refor m will continue on Saturday to be the focus of meetings of the policysetting committees of the 187nation International Monetary Fund and the World Bank. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke were representing the United States at the talks.

Geithner also had a round of one-on-one meetings scheduled Saturday with finance officials from Portugal and Greece, two

nations facing serious debt troubles, and officials from the European Union and Germany who have been involved in the efforts to deal with Europe’s debt problems.

Geithner was also scheduled to meet with Egyptian Finance Minister Samir Radwan for talks likely to focus on the types of financial support that Egypt needs during its governmental transition.

After the day-long G-20 talks ended, French Finance Minister Christine Lagarde told reporters Friday that the monitoring agreement was a significant achievement in efforts to restore confidence and prevent future financial crises.

“We have made huge progress in relation to the framework for growth,” she said. “This is a major step in the right direction.”

Lagarde said that all G-20 nations will take part in the monitoring process but in the beginning the focus would be on seven of the world’s largest economies.

She declined to name all of those countries but the group is expected to include the United States, China, Japan, Germany, France, Britain and India.

Much about the monitoring process, however, is still to be determined including whether countries found to have dangerous imbalances will be identified

publicly. China in the past has blocked public release of criticism it has received from the International Monetary Fund.

The initial monitoring effort will be reviewed at an October meeting of the G-20 finance officials who will report on how the process is working to G-20 leaders who are scheduled to meet in Cannes, France, in November.

Since there is no enforcement mechanism, it was unclear what pressure can be brought to bear on countries found with dangerous imbalances.

However, officials sought to portray the agreement as a major step forward in addressing the types of problems that were uncovered by the financial crisis that erupted in the United States in the fall of 2008 and contributed to pushing the global economy into the worst downturn since the Great Depression of the 1930s.

“The subprime crisis in the United States — that’s exactly the kind of accident we want to avoid in the future,” Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty told reporters.

British Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said he expected Britain would be cited in the first report next fall for its sizable government deficit.

Others suggested that the United States would also be cited for its

government deficit, which is projected to hit $1.5 trillion this year. China could be cited for its trade surplus.

G-20 leaders meeting in Pittsburgh in September 2009 agreed to a goal of rebalancing global growth. But China in particular has resisted the rebalancing program, seeing it as a backdoor to bring greater pressure on Beijing to allow its currency to rise in value against the dollar. Critics contend China is unfairly manipulating its currency for trade

Pioneer Bank wins business beautification award LOCAL

BUSINESS

Pioneer Bank, 3000 N. Main St., was awarded the Keep Roswell Beautiful Business Beautification Award, Wednesday, for the month of April.

Monthly awards are presented to local area businesses that have not only made efforts to keep Roswell looking more beautiful through outstanding landscaping and maintenance, but those that have successfully utilized methods and materials that promote sustainability and conservation.

Pioneer Bank, along with their contracted landscaping service providers, Garden Crest, created a beautiful and visitor-friendly landscape design, including a mixture of green spaces, decorative rock and “low water using” miniature green shrubs.

“We appreciate all the efforts and contributions that Pioneer continually makes to “green up” the Roswell community from their beautiful aesthetics to their paperless statements,” KRB President Joan Blodgett said. “Pioneer Bank continues to lead the way in environmental sustainability and community outreach.”

tives of the Keep Roswell Beautiful programs, encourages cleanliness, unity and economic development in the Roswell Community. In an effort to promote beautification through outstanding maintenance and landscaping by Roswell businesses and residents, KRB established the awards program.

The mission of KRB revolves around a core belief that individuals should take greater responsibility in improving their community environments. Encouraging this mission makes communities safer, healthier and more livable.

KRB believes that when a community and its residents unite with beautification as a common purpose, transformations occur; not only in the physical surroundings, but in the hearts and minds of everyone involved.

Recipients of the KRB award receive a sign to display in front of their business and a certificate of appreciation. For more information or to nominate a business or resident for the monthly KRB Beautification Award, call the Keep Roswell Beautiful Office at 637-6224, or info@KeepRoswellBeautiful.com.

China renews promises of ‘more flexible’ yuan

BEIJING (AP) — China’s central bank governor has renewed promises to ease controversial exchange rate controls — but says change will be gradual.

Zhou Xiaochuan said Friday that the exchange rate of China’s yuan will be made “more flexible” but in a “step by step” way, the official Xinhua News Agency reported.

Washington and other governments complain China keeps the yuan undervalued, distorting trade and hampering a global recovery. Officials of the Group of 20 major economies meeting Friday in Washington agreed to look at “currency misalignments,” a response to frequent complaints about the yuan.

Beijing promised more flexibility in June, but the U.S. Treasury Department says the 4.5 percent increase in the

yuan, also known as the renminbi, against the dollar since then has been too slow.

“China will continue to carry out reform in the financial department, including currency reform, pushing forward development of an ’exchangeable renminbi’ and making the renminbi exchange mechanism more flexible,” Zhou said at a conference in the southern Chinese city of Bo’ao, according to Xinhua.

“This is what we want to do, and we should do it step by step,” Zhou said.

Beijing’s controls require it to buy dollars and other foreign currency to restrain the yuan’s rise. China’s foreign reserves soared above $3 trillion in March, a sign the central bank is still intervening in currency markets despite the June promise.

advantages.

Russian Finance Minister Alexei Kudrin told reporters a key remaining question will be “whether we make the monitoring mandatory and have sanctions.”

In addition to global imbalances, the finance discussions have focused on ways to help poor nations deal with soaring food and energy costs and the dangers of rising inflationary pressures in China and other emerging economies.

3 online poker houses face fraud charges in NYC

NEW YORK (AP) — Federal authorities busted the three largest online poker websites in the United States on Friday with charges of bank fraud and illegal gambling against 11 people, accusing them of manipulating banks to process billions of dollars in illegal revenue.

Prosecutors in Manhattan said they’ve issued restraining orders against more than 75 bank accounts in 14 countries used by the poker companies, interrupting the illegal flow of billions of dollars.

U.S. Attor ney Preet Bharara said the defendants “concocted an elaborate criminal fraud scheme, alternately tricking some U.S. banks and effectively bribing others to assure the continued flow of billions in illegal gambling profits.”

The companies, all based overseas, were identified as PokerStars, Full Tilt Poker and Absolute Poker. The indictment sought $3 billion in money laundering penalties and for feiture from the defendants.

The indictment said the companies ran afoul of the law after the U.S. in October 2006 enacted the Unlawful Inter net Gambling Enforcement Act, which makes it a crime for gambling businesses to knowingly accept most forms of payment in connection with the participation of another person in unlawful Inter net gambling.

Authorities said Absolute Poker responded by saying in a release after the new law was enacted that it would continue its U.S. operations because “the

U.S. Congress has no control over” the company’s payment transactions.

Early Saturday, PokerStars posted a statement to its players through its computer software and on Twitter. The company said it has had to suspend real money play to customers based in the United States.

“Please be assured player balances are safe. There is no cause for concern,” the company said. “For all customers outside the U.S. it is business as usual.”

An attempt to look at the website for PokerStars.com was met with a message from the FBI saying the domain name had been seized as part of a criminal probe. In all, authorities said they had seized five Inter net domain names used by the poker companies to operate illegally in the U.S. Full Tilt Poker released a statement late Friday defending its executives named in the indictment, including Nelson Burtnick and its CEO, Raymond Bitar.

“I am surprised and disappointed by the government’s decision to bring these charges,” Bitar said in a statement. “I look forward to Mr. Burtnick’s and my exoneration.”

Bitar is accused of arranging for money received from American gamblers to be disguised as payments to online merchants that didn’t exist.

The company said it has suspended play for real money on its site in the United States but would continue offering gambling on poker in other countries.

PIONEER BANK,

‘The Conspirator’ is stately to a fault

Robert Redford’s latest film, “The Conspirator,” explores a time in American history that most of us probably never knew about, or at least forgot: the 1865 trial of Mary Surratt, a boarding house owner whose son was suspected of helping John Wilkes Booth assassinate Abraham Lincoln.

It should be tense and thrilling, full of rich, powerful performances; instead, it’ll make you feel like you should be taking notes in preparation for a highschool exam. And like the last film Redford directed, the terrorism drama “Lions for Lambs,” it’s painfully preachy and sanctimonious.

James McAvoy stars as Frederick Aiken, a 28-yearold Civil War hero for the Union who’s now the lawyer assigned to defend Mary (Robin Wright), the lone woman charged in the case.

Being young and idealistic — and functioning as the kind of character Redford himself would have played decades ago — Aiken says he doesn’t know whether Mary is guilty of conspiracy, but he feels she deserves a fair trial.

The entire nation is

against her — and against him, too, by association.

But Kevin Kline, as the power-hungry Secretary of War Edwin Stanton, makes it clear that someone must pay for the president’s death. It may as well be Mary Surratt.

Redford’s film, based on a script by James D. Solomon, is stately and respectable to a fault: It’s too safe. It feels the need to bang us over the head with how important it is. And Redford is trying way too hard to make these events from a century and a half ago seem like a relevant metaphor for where we are as a nation post-9/11.

Nobody ever evolves here; “The Conspirator” doesn’t offer characters so much as human representations of principles. Aiken is always determined and high-minded (and Alexis Bledel as his girlfriend is always sweet and boring). Mary remains the stoic martyr, proudly prepared to do whatever she must to protect her son, until the very end.

Stanton is always unscrupulously conniving and out for blood.

Even the film’s aesthetic motif is static and suffocating. Redford (with the help

of cinematographer Newton Thomas Sigel) shoots nearly all his interiors the same way: dark rooms pierced with shafts of misty, unforgiving sunlight. Whether they’re meant to provide enlightenment or cast blame, they feel repetitive.

Sure, “The Conspirator” has an excellent, pedigreed supporting cast including Tom Wilkinson, Colm Meaney, Danny Huston and Stephen Root in one great scene. (Justin Long, meanwhile, shows up with the worst fake facial hair known to mankind as one of Aiken’s fellow soldiers, and his presence feels awkward and way too contemporary.)

But then, Wilkinson, as Aiken’s superior, is saddled with clunky lines like: “It’s time to heal the nation, not wage more war.” Even an actor of his versatility and stature can’t make that sound like anything but what it is: a lecture.

“The Conspirator,” a Roadside Attractions release, is rated PG-13 for some violent content. Running time: 122 minutes.

One and a half stars out of four.

Debt-hit Ireland offering better deal for tourists DUBLIN (AP) — When Kelly Tetterton went online to research her family’s first big holiday escape from Chicago, her heart said Ireland. But her head worried it would involve too much hassle and money.

She got a pleasant surprise on both counts — and a weeklong vacation that earned rave reviews without breaking the bank.

Tetterton, her husband Peter and children Meredith and Alexander found their ample $5,000 budget stretched all the way to topend seaside restaurants, a night in a five-star castle, even a walk through medieval woods with trained falcons at their beck and call. All was easily previewed on the Internet and confirmed by warm, welcoming hosts.

A few years ago, the trip could easily have cost 50 percent more, been harder to book, and been met with a take-it-or-leave-it attitude that characterized boomtime Ireland. But today’s property-bust Ireland is the biggest financial disaster in Europe, a crisis that has hotel rates tumbling and the trip-planner in a position of strength not seen in Ireland since the early 1990s.

“We were offered a thousand choices of where to stay. Peter and I narrowed

each location down to two or three choices, expecting to find the best places booked up. But everything was available. And wherever we arrived, everybody was expecting us,” said Tetterton, an executive at a website design firm. “And staying in a castle was just freaking awesome.”

Ireland’s long been one of the world’s most popular tourist destinations, particularly for Americans, some 40 million of whom have Irish heritage.

But as Ireland enjoyed unprecedented prosperity during its Celtic Tiger boom of 1994-2007, the tourist experience suffered. Particularly at the tail end of the Tiger, many tourists experienced sticker shock and agreed with acerbic locals that Ireland had become “the Ripoff Republic.”

No longer — or at least, not necessarily.

Prices are still alarmingly high in tourist hot spots, like the castle town of Kilkenny and the pub-crawl paradise of Galway, and plenty of restaurants throughout Ireland charge way too much for secondrate fare. But visitors who do their homework can travel for a hefty discount versus the record-setting tourist year of 2007, when 9 million visitors came — dou-

ble the population of Ireland itself — among them 1 million Americans.

Those willing to haggle by email will fare even better.

Don’t be shy. Ireland needs your business.

“We need to get the message out there that we’re not as expensive as we were.

Because of our difficulties, things will be a little bit cheaper and visitors will get a better welcome than in the past. And we have really good hotels at a very low price,” said Ireland’s brandnew tourism minister, Leo Varadkar, himself the Dublin-born son of an Indian immigrant.

The reason Ireland’s hotels tend to be so new and competitively priced — the cheapest in western Europe, according to a March industry survey — is because of the nation’s spectacular property boom and bust, which was more severe than any U.S. housing market.

The previous government offered excessive tax breaks to property tycoons to build hotels with millions borrowed too easily from Dublin banks. Hotels sprung up like mushrooms, often in the middle of nowhere special, and sometimes amid urban decay — dubbed “Hanoi Hiltons” by Dublin wits.
