Kintigh’s curfew clears committee

Vol. 120, No. 38 50¢ Daily / $1 Sunday

A Roswell lawmaker’s attempt to give municipalities the authority over whether to enact curfew laws for minors, cleared its first hurdle Saturday as it made its way through the House Health and Government Affairs Committee. Rep. Dennis Kintigh’s, RRoswell, legislation seeks to give local governments the authority to restrict minors from being unattended in public at night and would also give police the power

to escort truant children back to schools during the day. The bill passed the weekend committee meeting following a 3-2 vote and will now head to the House Judiciary Committee. “That’s a very positive sign,” said Kintigh, following the vote. “This is a good discussion.” Addressing the committee, Kintigh told fellow lawmakers that his bill seeks to protect minors from danger, rather than simply impose restrictions on their movement. A similar curfew law established by the

However, Kintigh says this bill would be different and fixes the technicality that allowed the ACLU to have the Albuquerque curfew tossed. The lawmaker also said the bill has the

was brought to me by members of the City Council in Roswell.” According to the law, police who find minors out past curfew are obliged to contact the child’s parents or actually drive the child home. Minors cannot be put into juvenile detention centers, and municipalities would be required to set up a separate area to hold detained individuals.

WASHINGTON (AP) — House Republicans called for cuts in hundreds of programs across the face of government Friday night in a $61 billion savings package toughened at the last minute at the demand of tea party-backed conservatives. From education to job training, the environment and nutrition, few domestic

programs were left untouched — and some were eliminated — in the measure, which is expected to reach the floor for a vote next week. Among the programs targeted for elimination are Americorps and the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. In contrast, spending on defense and veterans’ pro-

grams were protected. The measure marks an initial down payment by newly empowered Republicans on their promise to rein in federal deficits and reduce the size of government. In a statement, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., called the measure “a historic effort to get our fiscal house in order

SANTA FE (AP) — New Mexico National Guard troops have joined state workers helping restore water service to communities east of Alamogordo that lost service because of gas outages. Members of a Guard company from Roswell have been deployed to assist in the ef fort in Ruidoso. About 1,900 homes still were without water Satur-

day. Service to Timberon and Cloudcroft has been restored except for two homes. A pipeline that carries water from Bonita Lake to Alamogordo is out of service but efforts are being made to get it back online. A boil water advisory remains in effect for communities that have had water service restored.

RENO, Nev. (AP) — A contractor has been cleared of allegations of wrongdoing in connection with a videotaped Jan. 27 incident involving a wild horse that fell during a government roundup of mustangs from the range in easter n Nevada. U.S. Bureau of Land Management Director Bob Abbey said an inter nal review found that Sun J Livestock did not violate existing agency policy during the ongoing gather of mustangs about 60 miles south of Wells. The review team found the mare was not over-driven by the contractor’s helicopter and did not collapse from exhaustion as horse advocates claimed, Abbey said. The team concluded the mare stumbled or tripped, then fell when it lost its footing in a small snow drift. The horse ran free following attempts by the helicopter to herd it into a trap. While the team found no evidence of wrongdoing, the agency must continue to look for ways to minimize risk to the animals, Abbey said. “Since 1976, when Congress first authorized the use of helicopters in the gathering of wild horses,

capture techniques have steadily improved,” he said in a statement. “But we must advance as far as possible in ensuring the humane treatment of wild horses and burros, both on and off the range. We need to create a ‘new normal’ for doing business.” Activists say their video shows the older mare collapsed after stampeding for miles followed by a helicopter; was forced to its feet by wranglers; and chased again by the helicopter. The video shows the horse visibly exhausted, breathing hard with its sides heaving, they added. The video has been widely disseminated on the Inter net, including on YouTube. “It’s no surprise the BLM Antelope roundup report is a whitewash,” said Ginger Kathrens, director of the horse advocacy group

From NMMI cadet to Blue Angel pilot No. 4

began his first semester like all the others— a RAT, or Recruit-At-Training. RATs receive basic training daily and are inducted into the strictly regimented military framework of the school. Being a RAT wasn’t always easy, Kurrle remembers, nor was making the transition from civilian to cadet. “No one enjoys being yelled at,” he said laughing. “And it takes away a lot of your freedoms and liberties. It is a military school.” But playing tennis for the school under Coach Gene Hardman and having a close-knit group of friends helped, he said. One of his closest friends was fellow RAT Mark Garner, who also hailed from North Carolina, about 20 minutes away from Kurrle’s hometown of Statesville. “Here we are, two North Carolina boys, and we’re out in Roswell, New Mexico,” Kurrle chuckled. “We became friends very quickly.” The two remained close friends until the summer of 2009, when Capt. Garner was killed in action in Afghanistan. An improvised explosive device

Long before Lt. Robert Kurrle became a Navy Blue Angel, he first had to learn to salute. It was at New Mexico Military Institute that the then-18-year-old aspiring aviator received the first military training in his career, including “how to salute, how to march and how to follow orders.” “I would not trade going to NMMI for anything in the world,” Kurrle said by phone from Naval Air Facility El Centro, Calif., where the Blue Angels annual winter training takes place before the show season starts in midMarch. “It taught me discipline, good study habits, time management and how to operate and perform under stress.” In the fall of 1997, the new cadet attended NMMI through the Naval Academy Foundation, a program for a select number of Annapolis applicants that requires a year of preparatory school before entering the Academy. NMMI is one of the colleges across the country that hosts the program. Fresh out of high school, the North Carolina native

Kurrle is the demonstration safety officer as his slot position in formation allows him better “situational awareness” and a wider view of the other Blues that fly 300 to 350 miles per hour only inches beside his canopy. “We’ll get as close to 18 inches apart during some of our manuevers,” Kurrle said, noting that it requires precision and trust in the other pilots to form the Blue Angels’ Diamond For mation. “It’s really impressive to see.” While Blue Angels one through four, which make up the “Diamond,” perform at lower speeds and tight formations during an air show, the “solos,” Blue Angels five and six, show off the “maximum performace capabilities” of the F/A-18 Hornet at soundbreaking speeds. Kurrle said his favorite manuever, the Loop Break Cross, comes at the end of a show. “We have all six airplanes back together, it’s really fun,” he said. “You're all back together in formation, then you break off in different directions, then cross in the center at the same time.” The Blues hold practice sessions during the winter

I left there with a lot of good friends.” After graduation, Kurrle attended the Naval Academy, where he played tennis, and graduated with a Bachelor of Science in mechanical engineering in 2002. He was commissioned as an ensign in the U.S. Navy. In 2009, he was invited to join the Blue Angels, the Navy’s flying aerobatic team that’s known world over for performing aweinspiring stunts at near sound-breaking speed. “I never thought in a million years I would end up with the Blue Angels,” Kurrle said. “It’s a dream come true.” One of only six flying pilots, Kurrle flew as the “Left Wing” in 2010. This year, he’s Blue Angel No. 4, a second-year senior position with more responsibility. Angels only fly for about two or three years, he said, so there is usually a 50 percent turnover per year.

Battleship New Mexico honored with exhibit

SANTA FE — Not many landlocked states get to see a Navy exhibit, but New Mexico is one of them as the state’s history museum in Santa Fe honors the World War I and II battleship USS New Mexico as well as its newly commissioned namesake, a nuclear submarine that is the most powerful warship ever built. New Mexico can be very proud of its two warships. The battleship New Mexico was ready just in time for our entry into World War I. It is a tradition to name battleships after states, and New Mexico and Arizona had both just become states as our nation saw itself slowly being dragged into World War I. The first USS New Mexico was the first of its class of battleship to be built, so subsequent battleships were called New Mexicoclass. After World War I, the USSNM became the flagship for the Pacific Fleet during the

1920s. The designation turned out to be appropriate since New Mexicans distinguished themselves in the Pacific as defenders of Bataan and as Navajo code talkers throughout the Pacific. The USS New Mexico made a quick appearance in the Atlantic in 1941 when Ger man ships threatened shipping from our Eastern seaboard. And that is how the New Mexico missed being at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. The USS New Mexico soon was back in the Pacific, fighting in the Gilberts, the Marshalls, the Solomons and the Marianas. It finished the war as one of our

Roswell Daily Record

nation’s most battered battleships, having taken hits from kamikazes, bombs and suicide boats. But after repairs, it kept on fighting. It was on its way for the invasion of Japan when the war ended. In recognition of its valor, the USS New Mexico was among the ships invited to Tokyo Bay to witness Japan’s surrender. A touching picture of our battleship, with Mount Fujiyama in the background is on display at the New Mexico History Museum through May 9. Also on display will be a 56piece silver service commissioned from Tiffany’s by New Mexico’s third Legislature for $10,000. The set includes a cigar humidor in the shape of Taos Pueblo, along with 24 silver plates engraved with scenes ranging from Coronado to the territorial period. Also on display are many relics of our battleship, along with a tel-

evision documentary telling the old ship’s dramatic story. It is tradition in the Navy to name war ships after previous ships that have served with honor and that the new ships carry items from their ancestral ship. Thus some of the silver collection and other items will be donated to the New Mexico nuclear submarine. The new USS New Mexico will join the U.S. Navy’s operational fleet in January 2012. Its homeport will be Gorton, Conn. It is likely to be stationed somewhere near the Middle East. It isn’t easy to get a second major ship named after a state. It took years of work by New Mexico’s congressional delegation along with outstanding efforts by New Mexicans headed by Dick Brown of Albuquerque. The captain of the USS New Mexico will be George Perez. During construction of the nuclear

sub, New Mexico native Commander Robert Dain was in charge of the ship. Dain was born in Shiprock, where his father was a doctor. Later, Dain lived in Tijeras and Cedar Crest. He graduated from Albuquerque St. Pius High School in 1982. It isn’t common for many of the crew to be from the state for which a ship is named. Dain was a happy exception. The crest of the ship also was designed by a New Mexico high school student. New Mexico can be proud of the work done by New Mexicans to get our name on this new ship. Don’t miss your chance to learn more about it at the New Mexico Museum of History, 113 Lincoln Ave., in Santa Fe.

Businesses ‘Do for America’

President Barack Obama gave sound advice Monday in a speech to the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. “I want to be clear: even as we make America the best place on Earth to do business, businesses also have a responsibility to America,” Obama said. “As we work with you to make America a better place to do business, ask yourselves what you can do for America. Ask yourselves what you can do to hire American workers, to support the American economy, and to invest in this nation.” It’s hard to argue with that, but it’s a bit like advising an Olympic runner to run fast. To survive, a non-subsidized business owner must “do for America,” just as an athlete must run fast to win a race. In a free market of minimal subsidization and regulation, American consumers reward only those businesses that make their lives better. Consumers ignore and destroy businesses that don’t improve their lives. Americans don’t wait in lines to buy iPhones out of obligation to enrich Steve Jobs. They do it because Jobs invented an affordable phone that improves their lives. Jobs, like all great American inventors, found a way to “do for America.” When Bill Gates sold software that greatly improved American productivity, he did it for America. When John Mackey founded Whole Foods, he found a way to “do for America” by inspiring a revolutionary upgrade of American supermarkets. When David Jenkins founded Nor’wood Development Group, he did for America by creating innovative neighborhoods that Colorado Springs homeowners love. Most of what makes American life so great is the result of business owners finding ways to do for the country they love. In general, winners in business “do for America;” losers do for themselves and quickly disappear. Obama wants businesses “to hire American workers.” Because he says so? Businesses will hire workers when efforts to “do for America” result in the need for assistance from new employees. They will “support the American economy” and “invest in this nation” by providing goods, services and commodities that improve the lives of Americans. They will do for America just as an athlete will run fast. But they won’t enter the race unless they are certain it’s not rigged against them. When businesses quit trying to do for America, it’s usually because government is choosing winners and losers. When farmers grow too much corn, rather than crops Americans want and need, it’s because government pays them to. Remember when banks made big loans to businesses that sought to “do for America?” That was back when a bank had to “do for America” in order to make money and survive. Then the federal government, at the insistence of former President George W. Bush, handed out billions in bailout funds — even to banks that weren’t failing. That’s when large banks stopped trying to “do for America.” That’s when their business models changed and they began hoarding cash — without the need to do much at all for America. President Obama, do what you have spoken of. Work to skillfully extract government from the marketplace. Let businesses fight for their lives, which will force them to “do for America” and hire new employees. Guest Editorial The Colorado Springs Gazette

DEAR DR. GOTT: My 26year-old son has been diagnosed with homocysteinemia. It seems that physicians don’t know a great deal about this. I know it is a genetic disease that has something to do with amino acids in his blood. The neurologist who confirmed the disease has told us that he has Marfan-like features (my son is 6 feet 7 inches, 160 pounds and has long limbs). He has had an irregular heart rate for many years that fluctuates from 40 into the hundreds. (His cardiologist said a lot of people have this.) His level was 16 at his last blood test. My research states that a nor mal level is

He should be tested for kidney disease, hypothyroidism, clotting abnormalities and abnormal cholesterol levels. If his blood is clotting abnormally, he may benefit from daily aspirin or a prescription anticoagulant medication, such as warfarin, to reduce the possibility of developing an errant clot. If his cholesterol is elevated, he may require treatment. Niacin, flaxseed oil, omega-3 oils, and plant sterols and stanols are good over-the-counter options. Prescriptions include statins, selective cholesterol absorption inhibitors and others. In the meantime, he should be on a low-fat diet, reduce his coffee consumption, stop smoking (if he does), and consider taking a vitamin B complex supplement.

year. You see, Dad has pancreatic cancer and is slipping away ... and when he closes his eyes for the very last time, Roswell will have lost a very good man. Dad has lived his life to make Roswell a better place for everyone. He practiced dentistry for more than 50 years, and he was the best-of-the-best ... saving some of his best work for those who could least afford it. The walls of his office were annually decorated with junior high and high school sponsorships, as well as newspaper clippings that brought honor to his friends and patients. Dad served in various capacities on boards and commissions ... he supported the efforts of economic development for the better part of 30 years ... he gives generously to our symphony and museums, to the United Way of Chaves County and to many of the non-profit organizations that serve the needs of this community. Dad lives his life with a smile on his face, a song on his lips and a warm acknowledgement to anyone and everyone he meets. His words are kind and his heart is generous ... and he doesn’t let the color of your skin or the style of your appearance distract him in wanting to know more about the person within. He has a remarkable way of making even the briefest of acquaintances seem like lifelong friendships. My life could have been drastically dif fer ent, wer e it not for Dad. His patience and his encouragement allowed me to fall and get back up ... to fail, with the knowledge that success was forthcoming ... to fear the struggles ahead with the realization that in time, all would be OK.

It’s what happens when compassion allows you to forgive and patience allows you to forget. It’s what happens when you get to know your neighbor ... when you treat others as you would want to be treated ... when you develop a servant’s heart. That’s who my Dad is, and I want to thank him publicly for sharing a little of himself with an entire community. Now you know where it comes from ... my desire to balance the trials and tribulations of a community that I care so much about. I learned day-by-day, the value of commitment and dedication, of responsibility and accountability, of doing the right thing for the right reason. I learned from my Dad, but I also learned from his peers and the community leaders of yesteryear. Continuing in their footsteps is an honor and a privilege. Chances are that you’ve never met Dad ... I wish you could, but you know, my Dad is not so uncommon. In my mind, he represents the kind of people who call Roswell home ... who work hard to better our community ... who share their time, and their talents, and their treasures unconditionally ... who never meet a stranger. I sometimes wonder if Roswell helped to create a great man or if Dad helped to create a great community. But then again, does it really matter? As we set the stage for the next generation of leaders in Roswell, I hope that we will emulate good people like Al Mulliken. I hope that we will continue to fight the good fight, to share in our hopes and dreams for Roswell and to work together to accomplish our goals and objectives.

OPINION III

Will you please be my Valentine, now and forever?

“If you live to be a hundred, I want to be a hundred minus one day, so I never have to live without you.” Words of wisdom spoken by the great philosopher Winnie the Pooh. I have a plaque on my desk here at home that reminds me of this daily. Years ago my wife, Tanya, promised me that she would outlive me. This was a very important promise for me. Because of this I can go through each day knowing that I will never have to live another day without her. I can live my life and do what needs to be done each day, and then I can return home knowing that she will always be there. It was 27 years ago on Valentine’s Day that I dropped to one knee and asked Tanya to be my wife. I was a nervous wreck and literally fumbled the box with the ring in it to the floor while anxiously awaiting her reply. After 26 years of marriage and over a half century on this planet I recognize that what I have been able to accomplish in my life is directly tied to Tanya and the stability of my relationship with her. Knowing that I will never have to be alone helps me better tackle each day. And the world sure

LETTERS

A couple should have expectations of each other, but should not take their spouse for granted. A powerful poem that helps me keep my relationship with Tanya in perspective is a writing by Norma Burnett titled “If Tomorrow Never Comes.” It is good advice on how to view today so that there are no regrets tomorrow. “If I knew it would be the last time that I’d see you fall asleep, I would tuck you in more tightly and pray the Lord, your soul to keep. “If I knew it would be the last time that I see you walk out the door, I would give you a hug and kiss and call you back for one more. “If I knew it would be the last time I’d hear your voice lifted up in praise, I would video tape each action and word, so I could play them back day after day. “If I knew it would be the last time I could spare an extra minute or two to stop and say ‘I love you,’ instead of assuming you know I do. “If I knew it would be the last time I would be there to share your day, I’d be sure it was your best, before it slipped away.

looks different when you wake up each morning next to your best friend. I believe that life was meant to be lived in couples. That is why God made man and woman. A couple should add to each other. Figuratively speaking, one plus one should equal a number greater than two. A couple should celebrate together and grieve together. They should argue from time to time, but conquer each difference because of their commitment to each other. They should laugh together and make good memories. A couple should provide stability for their children. They should model for their children a healthy husband/wife relationship and good parenting to children who will someday become a spouse and will parent the next generation.

And today may be the last chance you get to hold your loved one tight. “So if you’re waiting for tomorrow, why not do it today? For if tomorrow never comes, you’ll surely regret the day that you didn’t take that extra time for a smile, a hug, or a kiss and you were too busy to grant someone, what turned out to be their one last wish. “So hold your loved ones close today, whisper in their ear.

My challenge to you today and as we move into Valentine’s Day Monday is to have a happy marriage. It is one of the toughest things any of us can do, but it is well worth the effort. I know, it takes two. But are you doing what you can to make it work or are you so focused on the flaws of your spouse that you don’t see your own. Are you modeling for your spouse the way you want them to be or are you setting a bad example in your words and actions? Give it your best and find ways to grow together with your spouse, not apart. Do it for the sake of your marriage. Do it for the sake of your children. You never know when tomorrow won’t come. Enjoy one another just in case tomorrow never comes. Enjoy one another and live to be one hundred minus one day so you never have to live a day without your best friend. Just a thought...

RECORD STAFF REPORTS

The NMMI Men’s baseball team dr opped two games to T rinidad State on Saturday. The Broncos lost 7-3 in Game 1 and 13-5 in Game 2. Two big innings cost NMMI in the first game. Neither team could plate a run during its first at bat, but in the top of the second the T r ojans grabbed the lead in unusual fashion. The Trojans loaded the bases thanks to two hits and a walk and Wade Beauvais scored on a balk to give T rinidad a 1-0 lead. After the balk, NMMI pitcher Javier Sanchez settled down and got two outs, but with runners on second and third, Jacen Davis ripped a single down the left-field line that plated two runs. Over the next four innings, Sanchez allowed just four hits and no runs, but the Br onco of fense could only muster a run in

the bottom of the sixth to cut the lead to 3-1. In the top of the seventh, the T r ojan’s had another big inning, as they scored four runs to increase the lead to 7-1. The Broncos were able to get two runs back in their last at bat, but the deficit proved too big and they lost 7-3. Johnnie Garr ett and Josh Loera had two hits each for NMMI in Game 1. In the nightcap, big Trojan innings cost NMMI again. T rinidad scor ed four runs in both the second and third innings to take an 8-1 lead. NMMI was able to cut into the lead in the home half of the fourth. With runners on first and second with one out, the Broncos’ Robert Orona doubled to right, driving in Brian Moneghan. Garr ett was the next batter and he dr ove in Ullises Marr er o on a ground-out. Orona made the score 84 when he scor ed on a

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Nobody’s perfect. Jordan Taylor and Wisconsin found themselves in a huge hole against previously unbeaten Ohio State, but the Badgers only needed about 13 minutes to shatter the Buckeyes’ chase at an undefeated season. “We knew we had a run in us,” Taylor said. Taylor scored 21 of his 27 points in the second half, rallying No. 13 Wisconsin fr om a 15-point deficit to beat No. 1 Ohio State 71-67 on Saturday and keep Division I without a perfect team since Indiana in 1975-76. Taylor was the catalyst, sparking a 15-0 run with eight straight points, then keeping the Badgers calm down the stretch with his poise. “(He) made all the differ-

RESTON, Va. (AP) — Redskins Washington defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth has been formally charged with misdemeanor assault stemming from a road rage incident earlier this month. Fairfax County police say the 29-year-old Haynesworth and his attorney appeared at a police station Saturday morning. Haynesworth signed a summons warrant charging him with assault and left. He's scheduled to appear in court on March 31. The encounter that led to the charge occurred on Feb. 2. Police said a 38year-old man told investigators he was assaulted by the driver of a pickup truck who was tailgating him. The driver was later identified as Haynesworth. Haynesworth's agent, Chad Speck, has said the player is innocent and that his accuser is seeking fame and money.

Thompson, Texas hold off Baylor, 69-60

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Freshman Tristan Thompson had 17 points and 13 rebounds and No. 3 Texas held off a furious rally by LaceDarius Dunn and Baylor to remain undefeated in the Big 12 with a 69-60 victory Saturday. Dunn scored 22 points in the second half as Baylor cut an 18-point deficit to three in the final 2 minutes. Texas led 65-60 when Dunn’s 3-pointer rattled in and out of the rim with about 25 seconds left and Texas’ Gary Johnson made two free throws to put the game away. Texas (22-3, 10-0) could have settled the game much earlier, but went 22 of 37 from the free-throw line. Baylor (16-8, 6-5) was the first Big 12 team to stay within 10 points of Texas this season. Jordan Hamilton scored 17 points and Johnson added 13 for the Long-

horns, who could make a move to No. 1 after topranked Ohio State’s loss to Wisconsin on Saturday. The Longhorns handed No. 2 Kansas its only loss of the season, on Jan. 22. Texas reached No. 1 for the first time in program history last season with a 17-0 start, then went on a losing run that left them unranked in a matter of weeks. Baylor tested the Longhorns like no other team has during the winning streak. Texas was in complete control after a blistering first half, then looked helpless to stop Dunn in See TEXAS, Page B3

He came down and hit those back-to-back 3s and got us right back into it, and from there you could just see we had some momentum,” Wisconsin’s Jon Leuer said. “It was unbelievable what he was able to do in such a short period of time, when we were battling adversity.” Wisconsin (19-5, 9-3 Big Ten) topped a No. 1 opponent for the first time since 1962, when it was also Ohio State. The Badgers joined Florida as the only programs to knock off the same No. 1 school in both football and men’s basketball in the same academic year. The Gators also beat Ohio Sta te in both sports in 2006-07. Fans at the sold-out Kohl Center stormed the court, just like when they rushed the field at Camp Randall Stadium following the Badgers’ 31-18 win there over then-No. 1 Ohio State on Oct. 16. “I kind of like ours because it just happened,” coach Bo R yan said. “I See UPSET, Page B3

National League teams at start of spring training

WEST San Francisco Giants Manager: Bruce Bochy (fifth season). 2009: 92-70, first place, World Series champions. Training Town: Scottsdale, Ariz. Park: Scottsdale Stadium. First Workout: Feb. 15/Feb. 19. He’s Here: SS Miguel Tejada. He’s Outta Here: INF Juan Uribe, SS Edgar Renteria. Going campin’: The Giants, minus a superstar, made an improbable run to capture their first World Series title since 1954 and first since moving West in 1958. Then they retained much of their roster heading into 2011 — a group manager Bruce Bochy has referred to as “castoffs and misfits”: outfielders Cody Ross and Pat Burrell, first baseman Aubrey Huff and others. Miguel Tejada, who began his big league career across the bay with Oakland, steps in at shortstop to replace departed World Series MVP Renteria. Third baseman Pablo Sandoval was told to shape up this winter if he wants to make the team and keep his spot, and he spent the winter working out in Arizona. Lefty Barry Zito, left off the roster for all three postseason rounds, will look to bounce back from a 9-14 season. He begins the fifth year of his $126 million, seven-year contract. Can reigning Rookie of the Year catcher Buster Posey put together another strong showing in his second year. Infielder-outfielder Mark DeRosa hopes to be back in the mix after playing in just 26 games because of wrist problems that eventually required seasonending surgery. ——— San Diego Padres Manager: Bud Black (fifth season). 2010: 90-72, second place. Training Town: Peoria, Ariz. Park: Peoria Sports Complex First Workout: Feb. 14/Feb. 19. He’s Here: 2B Orlando Hudson, SS Jason Bartlett, 1B Brad Hawpe, CF Cameron Maybin, RHP Aaron Harang, RHP Chad Qualls, C Gregg Zaun, RHP Dustin Moseley, C Rob Johnson, INF Jorge Cantu, OF Eric Patterson, RHP George Kontos. He’s Outta Here: 1B Adrian Gonzalez, SS Miguel Tejada, 2B David Eckstein, RHP Jon Garland, RHP Chris Young, C Yorvit Torrealba, INF Jerry Hairston Jr., OF Scott Hairston, RHP Adam Russell, LHP Cesar Ramos, RHP Kevin Correia, RHP Edward Mujica, RHP Ryan Webb. Going campin’: The Padres have retooled considerably since winning 90 games and still falling one victory short of making the playoffs. The biggest move was trading AllStar slugger Adrian Gonzalez to the Boston Red Sox for three top prospects plus Patterson. The Padres said they wouldn’t be able to afford to keep Gonzalez once he hit the free agent market after this season. General manager Jed Hoyer also rejiggered up the middle by acquiring Jason Bartlett in a trade with Tampa Bay, signing Orlando Hudson as a free agent and acquiring Cameron Maybin in a trade with Florida. The big spring training battles will be for the Nos. 4 and 5 spots in the rotation behind ace Mat Latos, Clayton Richard and Aaron Harang. Among those competing for the jobs will be Dustin Moseley, and returning pitchers Wade LeBlanc and Cory Luebke. ——— Colorado Rockies Manager: Jim Tracy (third season).

Going campin’: After fading down the stretch last season, the Rockies committed $273 million in contracts this winter, signing sluggers Troy Tulowitzki and Carlos Gonzalez to long-term deals and re-signing LHP Jorge De La Rosa, who teams with ace Ubaldo Jimenez and up-and-coming star Jhoulys Chacin to give the Rockies one of the most promising young rotations in baseball. The bullpen is stellar. What the Rockies need is more offense outside Tulo and CarGo, who put together MVP-worthy performances last season. A more consistent offense would go a long way toward addressing last year’s perplexing splits: The Rockies were 52-29 at Coors Field but just 31-50 on the road. Catcher Chris Iannetta gets his first real shot at winning the starting job and his offense must improve along with plenty of other players, but his handling of the pitchers will be a big key, too. After struggling all of last year, 1B Todd Helton said recently he plans to play out the final three years on his contract, but he’ll be splitting time with Wigginton and Jason Giambi to keep him fresh. ——— Los Angeles Dodgers Manager: Don Mattingly (first season). 2009: 80-82, fourth place.

Titans hire Jerry Gray as defensive coordinator

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Titans coach Mike Munchak has filled one of the biggest openings on his staff by hiring Jerry Gray away from the University of Texas to become Tennessee's defensive coordinator. The Titans announced the move Saturday, a day after Munchak picked Gray up at the airport to interview him for the job. Munchak said he respected Gray both as a player and a coach and was someone he knew right away he wanted to talk to about being his defensive coordinator. "It was evident to me during interview process that he will fit well with us — he is familiar with our system and the type of players that we have on the roster. He is a great teacher and a great person, and I think the players will respond well to his style," Munchak said. Gray was hired by Texas, his alma mater, to be defensive backs coach and assistant head coach to Mack Brown last month. He was due to make $425,000, but this job meant at least doubling that for this season. Gray said in a statement that he knows the timing of this move isn't ideal. "But this was something that I couldn't turn down," Gray said. He replaces Chuck Cecil, who was fired in January a week before the Titans parted with coach Jeff Fisher. A two-time All-American at Texas, Gray was a four-time Pro Bowl pick during his

nine NFL seasons with the Los Angeles Rams, Houston Oilers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He started his coaching career with the then-Tennessee Oilers in 1997 as defensive quality control assistant when Munchak was promoted to offensive line coach. Gray was promoted to secondary coach in 1999 and 2000. Samari Rolle and Blaine Bishop earned Pro Bowl honors in 2000 when the Titans ranked first in the NFL in fewest yards passing and total yards allowed. He left in 2001 with Gregg Williams for Buffalo as defensive coordinator through 2005. His defenses in 2003 and 2004 ranked second in the NFL in each season for yards allowed. Both defenses ranked in the top 10 in points allowed. In 2004, the Bills led the NFL with 39 takeaways and were fifth in red zone defense. He coached the secondary in Washington between 2006 and 2009 before moving to Seattle for the 2010 season. Gray played with Munchak during the 1992 season for the then-Houston Oilers. "I have known Mike for a number of years and if he is a head coach like he was a player or a position coach, we are going to be in great shape, because he has had so much success and everything he does," Gray said. This is Munchak's second hiring since taking over on Monday. He also hired close friend and fellow Hall of Fame lineman Bruce Matthews to replace him as the offensive line coach. Munchak still has several openings left to fill including offensive coordinator, running backs assistant, defensive line and a couple of other assistants.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Washington Redskins kick returner Brandon Banks and a close friend were stabbed early Saturday during an altercation outside a downtown D.C. nightclub. Banks received a surface wound to his side that required stitches and was expected to be released Sunday from an area hospital, his agent James Gould said in a statement. The player's unidentified friend was critically injured and underwent surgery, Gould said. The stabbing occurred shortly after 3 a.m. outside The Park at 14th, an upscale nightclub. According to D.C. police, a man got into a verbal altercation with two men, then pulled a knife and stabbed them. Police did not identify the victims, but the Redskins confirmed that Banks was injured in the attack. The suspect — Jason Shorter, 24, of Lanham, Md. — was arrested and charged with assault with intent to kill, police said. Police and jail officials did not know whether Shorter had an attorney. According to Banks' agent, the friend was attacked first and Banks was injured while coming to his aid. Banks was not implicated in any wrongdoing, Gould said. "Brandon's immediate concern is for his lifelong friend who is like a brother to him," Gould said. "He would like to thank everyone for their prayers and well wishes for him and his lifelong friend." The team was gathering facts about the incident, Redskins spokesman Tony Wyllie said. Banks was an undrafted rookie out of Kansas State last season. He returned a punt 53 yards the first time he touched the ball in an NFL game. He also recorded a 96yard kickoff return for a touchdown. He is the lightest player in the NFL — listed at 5-7, 155 pounds.

Wisconsin, which won its 17th straight at the Kohl Center and improved to 150-11 at home under Ryan. Sullinger scor ed 19 points and had 12 rebounds, for the Buckeyes, whom coach Thad Matta said has bigger objectives ahead than an unbeaten season. “The goal for this basketball team when we set out was not to go undefeated,” Matta said. “We’ll see our character of how we recover when we come back into practice.” Wisconsin was sharp from beyond the arc, hitting 12 of 24 3-pointers to key the upset, but it sure didn’t look like the Badgers would be close after falling behind big. Taylor sparked the first big run, hitting a floater and two deep 3-pointers, first 15 minutes. Texas did just about anything it wanted to offensively in the first half, whether it was shooting over the zone or driving through it. Hamilton had 12 points in the first half and his baseline dunk on a threepoint play put Texas ahead 34-15. Defensively, the Longhorns forced 10 turnovers, had six blocks in the half and all but shut down Dunn over the first 20 minutes. Texas led 38-22 at halftime and opened the second with Thompson's dunk on an alley-oop pass from Dogus Balbay.

Texas Tech came back with 9-2 run, including four points by Reese, a basket by Jaye Crockett and a 3-pointer by David Tairu to pull within 4846. The Red Raiders regained the lead, which they relinquished late in the first half, on a layup and a fr ee thr ow by Roberts to go up 50-48. Middleton tied it at 54 on a layup and put them ahead on a jumper on their next possession to give the Aggies a 56-54 lead with just under 10 get ready for state. We have to step it up another level to compete at state. That’s what the whole season comes down to.”

High School Tennis Goddard Invitational NMMI The NMMI boys tennis team won the Goddard Invitational in dominating fashion on Saturday. The Colts dropped just one game, which came in their 8-1 win over Loving. In NMMI’s other two matches, they won 9-0 over Goddard and Artesia, respectively. Colt coach Jim Kelly said it was a good way for the boys to kick-start their season. “It was a pretty good weekend and a pr etty good start for my boys,” he said. “Besides the one loss to Loving, which was my second doubles team, we didn’t drop a single set. We have never beaten Goddard since I have been her e. We worked hard and we drill hard. “Last year I had three r eally str ong players.

then Wisconsin went on another 10-0 run down the stretch to hold on. “They had to play for that stretch damn near perfect to get us and they did,” Matta said. “They deserve the cr edit for that.” After the Badgers’ first spurt, Ohio State took a 55-52 lead on two fr ee thr ows by Aar on Craft with 7:11 left. Bruesewitz tied it with a thr ee and when Sullinger tried to crash the of fensive glass, he tripped and left Keaton Nankivil open on the other end for a jumper. Taylor then made a three fr om the left side and added two free throws to give Wisconsin a 62-55 lead with 4:18 to play. Jon Diebler and Sullinger each hit two free throws cutting it to hanging on the rim. Dunn made one of two free throws to start a 7-0 Baylor run — including another dunk by Perry Jones III, who was locked in a game-long battle under the basket with Thompson. The Bears had clearly found their rhythm and cut Texas’ lead to 44-36 when Dunn hit a tough shot over Balbay and converted a three-point play. Dunn was just getting started on a dizzying run of layups and jumpers over the next 10 minutes. He scored 16 of Baylor's 17 points in one stretch to get the Bears within 6157 with 3:42 to play. minutes remaining. T exas T ech pulled ahead 65-63 with 3:33 remaining when Roberson hit a 3, but a few minutes later he had the ball stolen by Dash Harris who got the basket to make it 67-65 and put the Aggies up for good. “We practice late-game situations every week,” said Nathan Walkup, who finished with 11 points and 13 rebounds for the Aggies. “We work on execution. Every time we’re in a close game we feel a little mor e and mor e comfortable. It showed in these last couple of games.” Knight was disappointed in his team’s overall play. “Ther e wer e a lot of bad plays we made.

Craft then lost the ball out of bounds, and the cr owd began pouring down to the lower level for the celebration to come moments later. Leuer was hoisted by the crowd and pumped his ar ms for more noise in the middle of the madness.

Time after time, the Longhorns missed one or both shots to give away points and keep the Baylor rally going. It wasn’t until the Bears cut the lead to 63-60 on Jones’ three-point play that Thompson, who was 5 of 10 at that point, made two free throws. Dunn missed his chance to keep Baylor alive and Texas finished the game making four straight free throws by Johnson and Cory Joseph in the final seconds. scorer, played just 4 minutes because of a calf problem that Knight said he didn't know about before the game. Turgeon found Texas Tech more difficult without Singletary. “They wer e har d to guard,” he said. “They had us spaced out.” The Aggies led 39-37 at halftime. Texas Tech started fast and A&M appeared sluggish. The Red Raiders led 18-8 when their regular starter Mike Singletary came in. The substitution proved beneficial for the Aggies, who used a 13-3 run to tie it at 21 with 8:05 remaining. Later, they used a 7-1 run, including a 3-pointer by Holmes and a basket each by Middleton and Walkup. Tech turned the Aggies' eight turnovers into 13 points. kids out of the gr oup fr om last year. I don’t want to say we ar e rebuilding, but we are getting better and better. “I think all of them did well, but they all have room to grow. They have room to get better.” The Rocket girls won the girls tournament. Goddard cruised past Portales (9-0) and Lovington (8-1) before beating Artesia 5-4 in the finals. Rocket coach Becky Joyce said that her team did well. “Since we haven’t practiced much I thought we did really well,” she said. “We just started in late in January. We are pretty young so we have good potential for this year and the next few coming years.” Joyce said that a match like the one against Artesia is beneficial for her team. “You like to see that early in the season so you know what to work on when district comes around,” she said.

Sunday, February 13, 2011 wore black “3407” patches on the two-year anniversary of the crash of Continental Connection Flight 3407 that killed everyone on board including Ohio State video coordinator Kevin Kuwik’s girlfriend, maintained their composure in the noisy envir onment over the opening minutes. Wisconsin went ahead by six early and Gasser's 3-pointer made it 24-19 with just over four minutes left in the first half. But Bufor d scor ed 15 points in Ohio State’s 236 run that turned a fivepoint deficit into a big lead that the Buckeyes failed to protect. “Rankings don’t matter. It’s about the last team that’s standing at the end of the day the first week in April,” Sullinger said. “At the end of the day,

you want to be the last team standing.” About 10 minutes before introductions, the Kohl Center crowd was whipped into a fr enzy when highlights of the Badgers’ win over Ohio State in football wer e shown followed by the message “Let’s T ake Down No. 1 Again.” The honorary coach was John Erickson, who led Wisconsin’s 1962 squad to its only other win over a top-ranked opponent. Fans rushed the court that day in March. Forty-nine years later, they did again. “There’s so many people trying to get closer and closer. It’s like suffocating,” Leuer said. “It’s fun to celebrate.”

No. 16 Louisville downs No. 12 Syracuse, 73-69

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Louisville honored the 25th anniversary of its 1986 national championship on Saturday, reveling in its past with a raucous celebration that rattled off the rafters at the KFC Yum! Center and stirred the echoes of the program's glory days. Turns out, the present is pretty good too. Kyle Kuric scored 23 points, Preston Knowles added 22 and Peyton Siva dropped in the clinching free throws in the final moments to lead the 16thranked Cardinals past slumping No. 12 Syracuse 73-69. “We don’t get down,” coach Rick Pitino said. “(Director of basketball operations) Ralph (Willard) told me this was going to be a tough year (but) we’ve had some surprises along the way. We really haven’t had a bad game in the Big East.” Syracuse, can’t say the same. Brandon Triche led the Orange (20-6, 7-6 Big East) with a season-high 21 points and Scoop Jardine had 20 points and four assists but Syracuse could not quite erase a 20-point second-half deficit to lose for the sixth time in its last eight games. “It’s tough when you’re (20) down on the road to come all the way back,” Syracuse coach Jim Boe-

heim said. “We made a great effort and got our offense going and did some good things on the defensive end, but you can’t get that far behind.” The Orange pulled within three points twice late but Louisville (19-6, 8-4) survived thanks to clutch free throws from Siva and Chris Smith. “We’re used to close games,” said Siva, who finished eight points, six assists and three steals. And they’re used to winning them. Louisville improved to 5-1 in games decided by four points or less. The Cardinals, facing a significant size disadvantage even with the Orange playing without 7-foot freshman Fab Melo, whom Boeheim said is “done playing for now” after missing practice. Louisville made 13 of 27 3-pointers to beat Syracuse for the seventh straight time. Pitino worried his team was on the verge of collapse after squeaking by with a patchwork lineup in recent weeks. The Cardinals are as healthy as they have been all season after the return of power forward Rakeem Buckles, who missed six weeks with a broken left index finger. His return gave Louisville’s frontline a much-needed boost following a draining overtime loss at No. 8 Notre Dame on Wednesday.

“I felt good, I had a lot of fun out there,” Buckles said. “But I’m nowhere close to where I need to be. I’ve got to get back, get better.” While Buckles was hardly spectacular, turning it over five times in 14 minutes, he didn’t have to be. He left that up to Kuric and Knowles. Knocking down shots from all over the court, the duo helped Louisville build a 57-37 lead with 15:23 remaining. Syracuse, however, dug in behind T riche. The Orange ripped off eight straight points in the next 90 seconds to get back in it, then slowly chiseled away as Louisville went cold and struggled to find any momentum in the halfcourt. “It’s hard to play with that kind of lead,” Kuric said. “You try to ice it but you can’t do that. You’ve got to keep looking and keep attacking.” The Orange went on a 205 burst over a 9-minute stretch, pulling within 6966 on a layup by Triche. Louisville managed to steady itself in the face of Syracuse’s halfcourt trapping, eventually drawing enough fouls to get to the line. Smith hit two free throws with 28 seconds remaining to put the Cardinals up 7166. Triche took a deep 3pointer from the top of the key that banked off the

backboard then rolled around the rim before falling out. Siva made a free throw to push the lead to six before Jardine hit a 3 to get the Orange within 7269. Siva made one more at the line with 6 seconds left then collected a loose ball at midcourt to help the Cardinals hold on. “There was a lot at stake (today),” Pitino said. “I told them we’ve got to get this Syracuse game. ... This team keeps battling, keeps fighting to the end. Syracuse did a fantastic job coming back.” Still, it wasn’t quite enough for the Orange to halt their bizarre late-season stumble. Louisville picked apart Syracuse's zone for easy baskets — finishing with 20 assists on 26 field goals — and there was a lack of urgency by the Orange until they were down a dozen. “We left too big a hole for ourselves to get out of,” Boeheim said. Maybe it will help the Orange if they don't come to Louisville on a day of celebration. The Cardinals knocked off Syracuse last March in the final game at Freedom Hall, an emotional victory that provided one last signature moment at the old barn. This time the Cardinals paid tribute to its last national championship, with several players return-

VILLANOVA, Pa. (AP) — Brad Wanamaker scored 21 points, Nasir Robinson had 15 and No. 4 Pittsburgh escaped with a 5754 win over No. 9 Villanova on Saturday night. It was a festive homecoming for Wanamaker and Robinson, two local players who shunned the Philadelphia schools and headed to Western Pennsylvania. The Panthers (23-2, 11-1 Big East) show no sign of relinquishing their conference lead with six games left. They stor med into town and did what no team had done since Jan. 6, 2007 — beat the Wildcats in their on-campus home. Antonio Pena tried to win it for Villanova (19-6, 7-5) in the final minute. He

hit a 3-pointer with 58 seconds left to make it a three-point game, then forced a turnover on Pitt’s possession. Dominic Cheek missed a tying 3-point attempt and the offensive rebound was kicked out to Maalik Wayns. His shot swished through the net — a tick after the final buzzer. Each team had one less reliable long-range option with their top 3-point shooters out. The Panthers played without leading scorer Ashton Gibbs, sidelined with a left knee injury. Corey Stokes walked into the Pavilion wearing a protective boot on his left foot because of tur f toe and immediately declared himself out before hitting the

locker room. The Wildcats softened Stokes’ status before the game but he never played. They missed one heck of a physical battle between the preseason picks to finish 1-2 in the Big East. The Panthers are headed toward a conference title while the Wildcats lost their second straight game. Tempers flared when Isaiah Armwood either threw a soft punch at Robinson or grazed him as he attempted to place his arm around Mouphtaou Yarou. No matter the intent, there

was contact and Armwood was whistled for a technical foul. The Panthers had a devastating counter punch — big baskets. Travon Woodall hit Pitt’s first 3 after seven misses to make it 37-34 and the Panthers ended a horrid funk and shooting stretched the lead to 4636. The game turned on a tech and the Panthers never trailed again. The nasty play continued when Corey Fisher, who fouled out with 4:50 left, crashed to the court on a

Pitino called that team one of the most beloved in program history, though he believes the current group may be his favorite since he took over for Crum a decade ago. “We don’t play with ego,

they love playing with each other,” Pitino said. “Ego kills potential. I’ve never coached but maybe one other team that played for what's on their jersey.” Syracuse controlled things early before Louisville came to life late in the first half, roaring past the Orange in the final 5:40 with a blistering 21-4 burst.

driving layup attempt. Fisher and Robinson were whistled for technicals. The Wildcats, who shoot 45 percent from the floor, made three baskets in the first 14 minutes of the second half. Gilbert Brown stepped out of bounds in front of Pitt’s bench and ‘Nova capitalized. Wayns sped from the top of the 3-point arc

to the hoop for a basket and the free throw that made it 52-49. Wanamaker silenced the 8-0 run with a three-point play, off a jumper at the free-throw line, for some breathing room. In a game between two of the six Big East teams ranked in the top 12, it fittingly came down to the last minute.

With 72, Woods 1 behind leaders in windy Dubai Roswell Daily Record

DUBAI, United Arab Emirates (AP) — Tiger Woods is bidding to end his drought in the desert. The former world No. 1 is one shot off the lead going into Sunday’s final round of the Dubai Desert Classic, rallying from a disastrous start with an eagle and three birdies on the back nine for a par 72 in windy conditions Saturday. “The fact I was able to battle from 4 over par and put myself with a chance going into tomorrow, I’m proud of that,” Woods said. “Hopefully, I can build on that.” He finished the third round at 7-under 209, in a seven-way tie for fourth behind co-leaders Rory McIl-

roy (75), Anders Hansen (71) and Thomas Aiken (74). Woods showed some of the resilience that recently has been lacking from his game on a dusty day in the desert during which the wind reached 28 mph. After a double bogey at No. 9 left Woods at 4-over 39, he started his surge with an eagle on the par-5 10th and followed with a birdie on No. 11. He closed with birdies on Nos. 15 and 18 sandwiched around a bogey on 16. “I just had to stay patient,” he said. “I made two mistakes with two bad swings at 8 and 9 that cost me four shots right there. I had three par -5s and 17 drivable.

Marino hangs onto the lead at Pebble

Woods is fortunate to be in contention thanks to the tough conditions taking a toll on most of the top players. McIlroy finished at 3 over and Sergio Garcia — eight shots ahead of Woods after nine holes — finished with a 75, and was among those tied with Woods. Woods had an eagle, four birdies, four bogeys and a double bogey. He started with bogeys on the first two holes, mostly from errant drives that went well left of the fairway. He pulled a shot back on the third with a birdie. But he bogeyed the eighth and ended up with double bogey on No. 9 after his approach got caught up in the wind, dropping just short of the green and rolling into the water. Woods chipped in from 35 feet for his eagle at the 10th. He followed that with a birdie that seemed to settle him down. But after running off several pars, his putting woes returned with a bogey on No. 16 — prompting Woods to swear before ending with “Come on Tiger.” He pulled out all the stops on the par-4 17, driving to the back edge of the green on the 359-yard hole. But his chip ran past the hole and he missed an easy birdie putt. He played cautiously on the 18th, choosing to lay up rather than drive the green. It paid off when he managed to curl in a 30-foot putt, prompting a fist pump as the gallery cheered. Woods won in Dubai in 2006 and 2008.

“So I figured the back nine, I could make up some ground and hope the leaders did not pull away.” Woods’ last victory came at the Australian Masters in November 2009, which was just before the Thanksgiving night car accident that derailed his run as the world’s top golfer. He is now No. 3 in the rankings behind Lee Westwood and Martin Kaymer. The top-ranked Westwood was tied for 13th at 5-under, while Kaymer was eight shots off the lead after a 76. Westwood could lose the top ranking if Kaymer wins and he finishes lower than second, and if Kaymer finishes second and Westwood is out of the top 10.

Spain's Sergio Garcia tees off on the 9th hole during the third round of the Dubai Desert Classic at the Emirates Golf Club in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Saturday.

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (AP) — Thousands of fans came to Pebble Beach for sunshine, scenery and celebrity entertainment. The leaders were somewhere else Saturday in the Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. Far away from the commotion, Steve Marino struggled with the speed of the greens on the Shore Course at Monterey Peninsula and ended his round with a three-putt bogey from 4 feet for a 1-over 71. That still was enough for him to take a one-shot lead going into the final round over Jimmy Walker, who had a 63 at Monterey Peninsula, and Bryce Molder, who counted about a dozen people in his gallery at Spyglass Hill on his way to a 68. Next up is the final round at Pebble Beach, where some measure of normalcy returns to his PGA Tour. But not entirely. D.A. Points was among the few players atop the leaderboard who was at Pebble Beach in the third round, and he was getting plenty of attention — or maybe that was for his amateur partner, Bill Murray, decked out in an Elmer Fudd hat. Points took a double bogey by going over the cliffs on the ninth hole, birdied the 16th and 17th and was poised to take a share of the lead until he couldn’t get out of a fairway bunker on the 18th and wound up with a bogey. That gave him a 71, putting him two shots out of the lead. His pro-am team is only one shot behind, meaning Murray gets another crack at Pebble on Saturday. Marino has been in the final group on the PGA Tour before. He’s never had the assistant head greenskeeper at Bushwood playing in the group ahead of him. Could he imagine trying to win on the PGA Tour for the first time with Murray in his group? “That would have been a trip,” Marino said. “I don’t know about that.” Murray has as many tour victories as the top four players on the leaderboard, which would be none.

Marino, who was at 12under 202, might be the most tested, having lost in a playoff at Colonial a year ago and finishing with one of the best shots of the young season at the Sony Open last month in Honolulu to finish second. He is not too bothered by a round that featured a trio of three-putt bogeys, an unplayable lie from a bush and an eagle. Marino said he hit the ball better than he has all week, but could not get used to the pace on the Shore’s greens. “A strange round,” he said. Alex Cejka and Tom Gillis were at 9-under 205, while the group another shot back included J.J. Henry, Kevin Sutherland and Aaron Baddeley. They were the only players in the top 10 who have won on tour. Molder has some experience being in contention, although he is trying to bury part of that memory. A year ago at Pebble Beach, he was closing in on the lead when he took a quintuple-bogey 9 on the 14th hole. Two other players also made 9 on that hole, which is quickly growing a reputation as one of the toughest par 5s on tour without a water hazard. “I don’t remember what you’re talking about,” Molder said with a grin. “You know, all you can do is laugh. I got there this year (on Thursday) and made a mess of it, had a good up-and-down for bogey.” Phil Mickelson moved into contention for a fourth title at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am by making three birdies over his final five holes for a 69. That moved him to 7-under 207, only five shots back going into the final round. “I thought that the round could have been a lot better, but toward the end ... I probably got as much out of the round as I could have,” Mickelson said. “But throughout the course of the day, I had many opportunities to go low and I didn’t take advantage of them. I’ve got to go really low tomorrow to give myself a chance.”

McIlroy, who won his only European Tour event here in 2009, also had a dreadful start on a day when about two-thirds of the field didn't break par. He had three straight bogeys to hand the lead to Garcia, including a drive on the second that landed in sandy scrub and one on the third that ended in the bunker. Like Woods, McIlroy was

able to turn his game around on the back nine with a birdie and a string of pars. “There’s been a few rounds that I let get away from me ... and I didn’t let that happen today which was a positive sign,” McIlroy said. “And I’m still, you know in the lead, tied for the lead ... I’m still in there with a great chance.”

Radio announcer preserves Navajo language Roswell Daily Record

GALLUP (AP) — Harrison Dehiya’s voice travels across the Navajo Nation every morning and reaches hundreds of Navajo families, some in remote places where there’s no electricity or running water — and where no word in English might be spoken for days, sometimes weeks at a time. A radio announcer with KGAK, Dehiya has become so popular for his vivid and entertaining description while broadcasting news and sports in his native Navajo that last month he was featured in Sports Illustrated. He was praised for his talent broadcasting basketball and football games and for keeping a once-forbidden language alive. Not surprisingly, when the unpretentious man in his mid-50s walked in the Ellis Tanner Trading Store recently, young attendants asked for his autograph. “He is a legend,” said 22year -old Sherilyn Livingston. “They all have different styles but he is the family name. Since I was a child, I wake up every morning feeling that he is there. His voice gives you comfort.”

Dehiya was at Ellis Tanner to promote Dine Speak, a free 15-minute community radio announcement program that goes on the air at noon every day except Sunday. In a matter of minutes and with a fast tongue, which Dehiya jokingly calls “sheep tongue,” he announced chapter news, community events and the funeral arrangements on behalf of a Mariano Lake family. It is hard to tell how large Dehiya’s audience is, but KGAK in Gallup covers a 5,000-watt radius and his programs can be heard as far west as Steamboat, Ariz., and Albuquerque in the east. And Navajo families in rural areas with no electricity, where most plug their boom boxes to car batteries or solar panels, listen to Dehiya to connect with friends and relatives and to stay in tune with what goes on around the Navajo

reservation. Dehiya is that bridge between the modern world and the forgotten, maintaining a language that for many years was forbidden in boarding schools for elders who are still holding on to the Navajo tradition, according to KGAK station manager David Singer. And he is also the reason some fans prefer to follow local basketball and football games from home. “That’s why I don’t go to the games,” said 60-yearold Freddie Wero. “I’d rather listen to him.” KGAK account executive Pat Jarvison said the Navajo language is “guttural,” so rich in nouns and poetic at the same time that it gets lost in translation. That’s why it makes sense that those who know the language would rather listen to Dehiya. “He has the gift of tongues,” she said. Dehiya has been broadcasting for the same station

in Navajo, and the rest is history. In the 1980s, Dehiya worked for KTNN in Window Rock, Ariz., for six years. There’s a gap in his career because he struggled with alcohol for some

time, but he has been sober for more than 14 years. If he has someone to thank, Dehiya said it is “my wife, who stuck to me throughout all these years.”

for almost 15 years but his career goes back to the late 1970s, when he got his first radio job by chance. Like most Navajos at the time, Dehiya grew up herding sheep and climbing the red rocks of Coolidge, his hometown. He attended Thoreau High School, where he played basketball, and later attended junior college in Muskogee, Okla. He returned to the Gallup area in 1977 and like most young men his age, he knocked on doors while looking for “any jobs, from dishwasher to janitor, anything,” he said. After a long day of job searching, it starting pouring rain as he was walking to the bus station, where he was supposed to catch his ride to Coolidge. He found shelter inside a random building, which happened to be KGAK. He met the right person, was offered a job announcing chapter meetings and news

Roswell Daily Record

Celebrating their generation The 2011 Baby Boomer Health & Business Expo is set for Feb. 18 at the Roswell Convention and Civic Center

ERIN GREEN RECORD VISTAS EDITOR

They were born during the postWorld War II years, to parents who voted for Dwight Eisenhower and later for John F. Kennedy. They’re old enough to remember when “Grease” really was the word, and when Martin Luther King Jr. lived and tragically died. They fought in Vietnam; they protested Vietnam. They grew up watching shows such as “I Love Lucy,” “Gunsmoke,” “The Ed Sullivan Show,” and “Leave it to Beaver.” They’re old enough to remember the Cold War, the dawn of rock ’n’ roll, Woodstock, the moon landing, Watergate and the early days of television. They listened to Elvis Presley, to the Beatles, the Rolling Stones. They watched and participated in the fight for civil rights and led the sexual revolution. They’re sons, daughters, nieces, nephews, husbands, wives, mothers, fathers, grandmothers and grandfathers. They’re the biggest generation of Americans ever — they’re the some 75.8 million people born during the period from 1946 to 1964, collectively known as the baby boom generation. The oldest baby boomers are now turning 65, but they’re not slowing down. Now, the 2011 Baby Boomer Health & Business Expo, which will be held from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Friday, Feb. 18, at the Roswell Convention and Civic Center, 912 N. Main St., will give people born during that time information on subjects of interest to them — including everything from veterans’ rights and benefits, to living wills, to investments, to cardiac care, exercise and much more. Presented by Frontier Medical, the free conference is sponsored by Easter n New Mexico Medical Center, Primm Drug, Roswell Regional Hospital, Scor PC, N.M. Digestive Institute, N.M.

The event is organized by Barbara Gomez, marketing director for Frontier Medical and a member of the baby boom generation herself, as a way to distribute information to the approximately 10,000 baby boomers in Roswell about issues directly affecting them and their families. “Baby boomers need stuff,” Gomez said. “We need health care. We need to know about living wills and cardiac health. We need to know about diabetes and finances. ... (But) more than needs, we have wants. We want

to have fun. We want to live well. We want to travel.” But Gomez cautions the conference is not just for boomers — she said the information is valuable for those of all ages. “It’s information for everyone,” she

said. “The theme is boomers, but the information is for everybody.” The conference will be packed with “close to 80 (vendor) booths,” according to Gomez, offering a wide variety of information and services to, for and about boomers. Vendors will

include both hospitals, many medical and home care groups, doctors, community clubs and organizations and much more, Gomez said. Break out sessions will start at 10:30 a.m., starting with “Veterans Rights and Benefits,” by the Southeastern New Mexico Vietnam Veterans of America; “Senior Financial Strategies,” by Ralph Hicks, CEO of Ralph Hicks and Associates; and “Heart Health for Baby Boomers,” by Clarence Pearson, M.D. At 11:30 a.m., participants can hear about “Colon Cancer Screening & Reflux,” by Frederick French, M.D.; “Roswell Fire Department,” by Mike Sorenson, assistant fire marshal; and “Back Pain Relief,” by Omar Osmani, M.D. At noon, a free lunch of hot dogs will be served, compliments of CocaCola and Lawrence Brothers IGA. The afternoon break out sessions start at 1 p.m., with “Trends in Plastic Surgery,” by Miguel Gallegos, M.D.; “How’s Your Ticker Ticking?” by Fundudar Adajar, M.D.; and “Prostate Cancer,” by Jay Bishop, D.O. At 2 p.m., participants can learn more about “Power of Attorney/Living Wills & Medicaid Wrap Up,” by attorney Tom Dunlap; “Social Security Disability Answers,” by Josh Worley, attorney; and “Diabetes,” by Peter Jewell, M.D. The final break out sessions are at 3 p.m., including “Secrets to Professional BBQ Cooking,” by Mike O’Berry, founder of Pit Master University, a session that will be “really fun,” according to Gomez; “Housing Options for Seniors,” by Kurt Gass of Prime Source Mortgage; and “Make Varicose Veins Disappear!” by Sebastian Lopez, M.D. The fun continues at 4 p.m., with a performance of 1950s and 60s rock ’n’ roll by Vinnie Baggatone & the Baggavaughns, sponsored by the Ocotillo Performing Arts Center in Artesia. And participants will definitely not want to miss the 5 p.m. drawing for a new 2010 Scion XD and a new 2009 Eton Matrix 50cc scooter, both from Champion Motorsports. Tickets for the drawings are available at Frontier Medical and at the door. Tickets cost $10 each, three for $25, or five for $45. Proceeds benefit the Chaves County Cancer Fund’s “Walk for Hope,” and the Alzheimer’s Association. The winner must be present. “Even if you don’t win the car, it’s a great opportunity to give money to great local causes,” Gomez said of the drawing.

Dad must make daughters’ Valentine’s Day special

Q: My wife and I have three teenage daughters and I’m dreading the drama that comes with Valentine's Day. They are already talking about not having boyfriends for Valentine’s Day. As a father, how do I help them weather all of the focus on romance and boyfriends? JULI: I think every woman can remember the sting of those teenage years — the highs of being in love and the lows of feeling unwanted and unloved. Valentine's Day definitely accentuates both the highs and the lows! I’d encourage you to reclaim Valentine’s Day to be about more than sweethearts, but about love instead. Let your daughters know how much you love them with a special dinner, a note or a little gift. They may roll their eyes, but the love you express to them will make deep deposits for them emotionally. In fact, when a dad is involved in his daughter’s life, she is less likely to fall into destructive dating relationships. Also, challenge your daughters to think about how they can show love to others. When I was in high school, the cheerleaders sold carnations for $1 that were delivered in homeroom on Valentine's Day. Popular kids carried around dozens of flowers while other students didn't receive any. My senior year I decided not to mope about how many flowers I had, but to show kindness to other kids. I bought 10 carnations and had them sent anonymously to kids I knew wouldn't receive any. Showing love to other people will boost your daughters' self esteem and lessen the focus on their longing to be loved. In the midst of this, don't forget to shower your wife with love. Not only will it make her Valentine's Day special, but also it will model for your daughters a love that's

How can we get our act together? JIM: At least you realize that living on a budget is important. Prior to the recession, USA Today reported that only one in five people even used a monthly budget. The National Foundation for Credit Counseling found that the number had improved to more than two in five Americans (43 percent) as of last year, but still, 56 percent of us do not use a budget at all, and as a result, many are swimming in debt.

— 38 percent of your monthly budget toward housing. — 15 percent toward transportation, including the purchase and maintenance of vehicles. — 12 percent toward food. Then, five percent of your NSI should be applied to each of the following categories: — Debt relief — Insurance (other than medical coverage) — Recreation and entertainment — Clothing — Medical and dental expenses — Savings Now, these are general guidelines, and your own situation may look different. You'll also notice that the categories only add up to 95 percent, which will give you five percent of “wiggle room” as you craft your budget. The important thing is that you allocate your money wisely in these categories, even if the percentages are slightly different. If you're spending too much in one area, the others will suffer and you'll go over your budget.

Pit bulls: Man’s best friend or worst enemy? Add a touch of LOS ANGELES (AP) — Pit bulls are the most abused, reviled, abandoned and euthanized dogs in the United States. More than 500 cities ban the breed or require sterilization, muzzles in public or insurance. Some regulate the size of fences that keep pit bulls enclosed, or the weight of leashes that keep them restrained. Even the Army and the Marines ban pit bulls in base housing. In an Associated PressPetside.com poll, 53 percent of American pet owners said they believed it was safe to have pit bulls in residential neighborhoods, but 43 percent said the dogs were too dangerous. Of 60 percent who support breed bans, most put pit bulls at the top of the list, according to the poll conducted by GfK Roper Public Affairs and Corporate Communications. Only one state, Ohio, has a statewide pit bull law, requiring owners to confine them as “vicious dogs” and carry at least $100,000 in liability insurance. Is the breed predisposed to be dangerous, or is man to blame? The divide between advocates and detractors is wide. “Dogs are products of their environment. Dangerous dogs are not born, they are created,” said Adam Goldfarb, director of the pets at risk program for the Humane Society of the United States in Washington, D.C. More than 250,000 pit bulls are maimed or killed in dog fights every year, he said. Up to 75 percent of dogs in many shelters are pit bulls. “When you hear about a dog being set on fire or attacked by an ax, it usually involves a pit bull and it’s not their fault. In some communities, there is a perception that pit bulls have less worth than other dogs,” Goldfarb said. Colleen L ynn of Austin,

Texas, isn’t convinced. She was jogging in Seattle on June 17, 2007, when she was attacked by a pit bull that knocked her to the ground and grabbed her ar m. The dog was being walked on a leash and was pulled away, but not before L ynn’s arm was broken, she said. Last year, 33 people were mauled to death and twothirds of the dogs were pit bulls, Lynn said. California reported the most fatal maulings with seven. Under most laws covering the dogs, pit bulls are defined as American pit bull terriers, American Staf fordshire terriers, Staffordshire bull terriers, or any dog displaying the physical traits of one of those three. Lynn, through her DogsBite.org, encourages breed

bans. “A ban saves the most human lives by preventing attacks before they occur,” she said. Jennifer Walsh of Los Angeles doesn’t consider her 7-year-old pit bull, TC, a threat. “I have a dog a lot of people might be really scared of and think he might be ready to attack at any moment. But he’s like a little bundle of love. I can pick him up, I can roll him over, I can do anything I want to him and he doesn’t care,” she said. A pit bull traditionally loves people, play and attention, Goldfarb said. They are smart and athletic, and owners have to nurture those qualities, he said. “A misbehaving dog might be a dog whose needs are not being met.” Lynn doesn’t believe pit

bulls are born vicious. “We believe pit bulls are born dangerous. They are born with a dangerous tool set. They can use it or not use it,” she said. In 2007, pit bulls and dogfighting became synonymous with Michael Vick, an NFL quarterback who served 18 months in prison over a dogfighting operation based on his property in Surry County, Va. Fifteen of the dogs seized in Vick’s case are rehabilitating at the Best Friends Animal Society in Kanab, Utah, far from the basements where they were chained and forced to fight. Their recoveries have included disease, injuries and skittishness. L ynn said Vick’s dogs hadn’t been bred for generations like those in so many illegal fighting rings. But, she said, all fighting dogs should be euthanized because they are too unstable. Despite temperament tests given by some shelters, Lynn said a dog that has been trained to fight will always be a risk to people and their pets. Goldfarb disagrees. “If genetics were as strong a factor as they’re suggesting then every dog fighter could easily breed lots of super aggressive dogs. Every dog in every fighter’s litter would be unmanageably aggressive and that’s just not the case,” he said. Pit bulls bite, hold and shake, ripping your skin like a shark, L ynn said. “They don’t let go. They shake back and forth,” because that’s what owners of fighting dogs want and have bred into the animals, she said. There is no science supporting a correlation between dog breed and bite style, Goldfarb said. Across the country, 4.7 million people are bitten by dogs every year, the American Veterinary Medical Association said.

maple to chicken

J.M. Hirsch AP Food Editor Those of us living in New England — home to great rivers of maple syrup — know that this richly sweet treat deserves star treatment far beyond the breakfast table. It belongs in chili, in barbecue and certainly in baked beans. It works with ham, with roasted squash and carrots, and especially slathered over broiled salmon. For this simple weeknight dinner recipe, I decided to fully embrace the savory side of maple by using two varieties of it on both the side dish and the main course. I start by tossing chunks of sweet potato with a blend of granulated maple syrup sugar (usually sold in the baking goods aisle), salt and pepper. I then rub that same mixture onto chicken thighs. Traditional maple syrup then is drizzled over the chicken and everything is roasted together in a Dutch oven. The result is sweetly savory and delicious. ——— Double maple roasted chicken thighs with sweet potatoes Start to finish: 45 minutes Servings: 4 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks 2 tablespoons olive oil 1/2 cup granulated maple sugar 2 teaspoons kosher salt 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 2 pounds bone-in chicken thighs (skin removed) 1/3 cup maple syrup Zest of 1 lemon Heat the oven to 350 F. In a large Dutch oven, combine the sweet potatoes and the olive oil. Toss well to coat. In a small bowl, mix together the maple sugar, salt and black pepper. Sprinkle half of this mixture over the sweet potatoes, then toss to coat. Arrange the sweet potatoes in an even layer over the bottom of the Dutch oven. Use your hand to rub some of the remaining maple sugar mixture over the chicken thighs. Arrange the chicken over the sweet potatoes. Drizzle the maple syrup over the chicken. Cover the pot and roast for 20 minutes. Remove the cover and roast for another 10 minutes, or until the chicken reaches 165 F at the thickest part. Serve the chicken with the sweet potatoes. Just before serving, sprinkle the lemon zest over the chicken. The sweet potatoes can be served as roasted chunks, or can be mashed. If mashing, add some of the liquid in the pot until the sweet potatoes reach the desired consistency. ROSWELL DAILY RECORD

Romance is in the mountain air in Tennessee FEATURE

Roswell Daily Record

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Romance is definitely in the mountain air as Cupid-inspired couples head for the Smokies for Valentine’s Day vows. Approximately 30 wedding chapels in the Gatlinburg-Pigeon Forge area in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park expect brisk business this weekend and Monday when excited couples repeat their vows on a romantic adventure with mountain majesty as a backdrop. The love-struck have been descending on the East Tennessee area for years to get married, and Valentine’s Day and the weekend before have turned into marriage marathons. Gatlinburg, in fact, touts itself as “the wedding capital of the South.” Hundreds of couples are

projected to say “I do” over the three-day period with mist from the peaks as a witness. “Couples romanticize about getting married on Valentine’s Day,” said Guy Jacob, senior coordinator for the Gatlinburg Wedding Center. Weddings are such big business in Gatlinburg that his center has diversified in the finest Wall Street tradition: It includes three wedding chapels, a reception business, a bed and breakfast and a bridal store. “The city in general is a draw,” Jacob said. The popularity as a wedding spot has several explanations: It’s fairly easy to get married in the area, it’s a picturesque setting and can’t-wait couples can honeymoon instantly without driving or flying off.

A blood test is not required and there is no waiting period, but couples must be 18. “You get your license in the morning, and then get married,” Jacob said. Cupid’s Chapel of Love, a white log chapel in business 15 years, says it’s been the site of more than 15,000 weddings and proclaims itself “Tennessee’s most photographed wedding chapel.” Its rates run as high as $1,400, but its “Just Get r Done” package costs $99. Jacob, whose company operates the chapel, describes “Just Get r Done” as “a simple ceremony with no photos and no fanfare.” It lasts eight to 12 minutes, and is “a full Christian ceremony, with a scripture reading.”

“It’s the most common wedding at that chapel,” Jacob said. A marriage license costs $38.50 for out-of-state applicants and $98.50 for Tennesseans, but the extra $60 for those in-state lovers is waived if couples complete a four -hour premarital course. Licenses can be obtained any day of the week except Sunday. Weddings in Gatlinburg’s Sevier County each February have been almost double those in January. The ceremonies have kept pace with those in March when the weather moderates and even with weddings in the traditional marriage month of June. There were 10,711 weddings last year in the county, which is within a day’s drive of much of the Southeast and part of the Midwest.

“People come here 12 months a year (to get married),” Jacob said. Once they reach the county, they find blocks of motels, restaurants, T -shirt shops and miniature golf courses. Not to mention bears, mountain peaks and even an Elvis impersonator or two. Ever resourceful, some of the chapels offer discounts for weekday weddings instead of Saturday. The Cupid’s Chapel Of Love was founded by a woman who was a Las Vegas entertainer. “It had that (Vegas) feel for many years,” Jacob said. “We took out a purple neon cross and put in new floors. But it has the appeal of being a fun, affordable place.”

Little sweetener goes a long way in a healthy diet Maple-garlic roasted parsnips

Sunday, February 13, 2011

Moderation is a wonderful thing. Not only do health experts say it’s the key to making — and sticking with — healthy eating choices, it also goes a long way to making the healthy foods we choose more pleasurable. Sweeteners are a good example of a place in the American diet where moderation can make a big difference. While the massive amount of high-fructose corn syrup consumed by many people isn’t a great choice, a more moderate amount of natural sweeteners can be a wonderful complement to a healthy diet. A bit of maple syrup, for example, can create a wonderfully sweet glaze for roasted poultry or root vegetables. Likewise, maple sugar (a granulated form of the syrup) can be great in a rub for beef or pork. In this recipe for garlic-maple roasted parsnips, maple syrup creates a deliciously sweet glaze. If parsnips aren’t your thing, feel free to substitute carrots, beets or other root vegetables. ——— MAPLE-GARLIC ROASTED PARSNIPS Start to finish: 50 minutes (20 minutes active) Servings: 6 to 8 2 pounds parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces 4 cloves garlic, chopped 1 1/4 teaspoons salt 3 tablespoons maple syrup, or more to taste 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 2 tablespoons granulated maple sugar Heat the oven to 350 F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large bowl, combine the parsnips, garlic, salt, maple syrup and oil. Toss well to coat, then transfer to the prepared baking sheet, arranging the parsnips in an even layer. Bake for 45 minutes, or until tender and starting to brown. During roasting, stir the parsnips every 15 minutes for even browning. In small bowl, mix together the black pepper and maple sugar.

JUNEAU, Alaska (AP) — The FBI file of the late U.S. Sen. Ted Stevens adds colorful detail to the life of the longtime Alaska lawmaker, but reveals few new facts about the 2008 corruption case that ended his political career. Friday’s release of a roughly 3,600-page file comes six months after Stevens’ death in a plane crash in Alaska, the state he represented for 40 years in the U.S. Senate. It includes documents detailing threats made a g a i n s t Stevens during his time in of fice, complaints against Stevens that seemingly went nowhere and requests from the senator that his office be swept for listening devices amid AP Photo the Watergate Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Ala. scandal. It had been expected to shed greater light on the circumstances surrounding Stevens’ indictment and trial. But aside from the copious amount of news clippings, there’s little mention of the case. Stevens was convicted on counts of lying on financial disclosure forms about gifts, including renovations of his Alaska home, which was investigated by the FBI. But a federal judge later tossed the case, finding prosecutors withheld evidence at trial. The agency’s public records’ officer did not immediately return a message from The Associated Press. Efforts to reach Stevens’ widow were not immediately successful; a recording for the phone number listed said it had been disconnected.

The FBI often releases the files of highprofile public figures after they die. The file also detailed a boozy night on the town with a federal judge in the 1950s, when Stevens was a U.S. attorney, as well as official correspondence — sometimes cordial — between the former senator and the FBI. The records offer a glimpse into Stevens’ legislative style and colorful personality, and signs of an at-times rocky relationship with the FBI dating to his days as a U.S. attorney. It also underscores Stevens’ staying power on the political scene spanning from the rough-and-tumble days when Alaska was a territory to his days as one of the nation’s most powerful senators. One of the more descriptive documents stems from the days before statehood, when Stevens was a U.S. attorney in Fairbanks. The FBI was investigating a complaint against federal judge Vernon Forbes, who was accused by an unidentified source of being drunk in public and frequenting “disreputable places of entertainment.” Forbes denied being drunk or other misconduct. Stevens, in an interview with investigators, described a night of drinking and club hopping, including seeing a midnight floor show by vocalist Tommy Roberts at the Flamingo Club. At one point, Stevens said, he invited a deputy U.S. marshal to join them because he didn’t want a federal judge in a south Fairbanks night club “without having someone armed along for protection.” A 1973 memo cites a Stevens’ request to have his Senate office swept for “possible ’bugs’” ahead of “very sensitive meetings.” Handwriting on the memo indicates the sweep was approved. It came at a time when a paranoid President Richard Nixon was secretly recording conversations before he resigned, although the FBI didn’t mention any connection. Complaints about or investigations into numerous threats against Stevens or harassing calls are detailed.

Researchers find whaling ship from 1823 wreck

HONOLULU (AP) — A fierce sperm whale sank the first whaling ship under George Pollard’s command and inspired the classic American novel Moby-Dick. A mere two years later, a second whaler captained by Pollard struck a coral reef during a night storm and sank in shallow water. Marine archaeologists scouring remote atolls 600 miles northwest of Honolulu have found the wreck site of Pollard’s second vessel — the Two Brothers — which went down in 1823. Most of the wooden Nantucket whaling ship disintegrated in Hawaii’s warm waters in the nearly two centuries since. But researchers found several harpoons, a hook used to strip whales of their blubber, and try pots or large cauldrons whalers used to turn whale blubber into oil. Corals have grown around and on top of many of the objects, swallowing them into the reef. “To find the physical remains of something that seems to have been lost to time is pretty amazing,” said Nathaniel Philbrick, an author and historian who spent more than three years researching the Essex — and its fatal encounter with the whale — the Two Brothers and their captain. “It just makes you realize these stories are more than stories. They’re about real lives.” Officials from the Papahanaumokuakea Marine National Monument — one of the world’s largest marine reserves — were due to announce their findings at a news conference Friday, exactly 188 years after the Two Brothers sank. Kelly Gleason, the maritime archaeologist who led the discovery, first saw the ship’s anchor in 2008 while surveying French Frigate Shoals. The anchor could have belonged to any one of three 19th-century whaling ships that sank at this atoll. But additional artifacts found by Gleason’s team over the next two years — like the cast iron cooking pots scattered around the wreck site — were unmistakably from the 1820s, while the other two vessels sank in 1859 and 1867. The sinking of the Two Brothers was relatively uneventful compared to the Essex’s epic run-in with the whale. After the Essex capsized, Pollard and fellow crew members drifted at sea without food and water for three months before they were rescued. To survive, Pollard and others resorted to cannibalism, including eating one of the captain’s cousins. Still, Thomas Nickerson, a crew member who served under Pollard both on the Essex and the Two Brothers, later

described his boss as being in a daze as they had to abandon ship for the second time. “Capt. pollard (sic) reluctantly got into the boat just as they were about Shove off from the Ship,” he wrote. Fortunately, the Two Brothers was sailing with a fellow whaling ship, the Martha, which had taken shelter near a rock. When the sun rose, the 20 or so crew members of the Two Brothers rowed over to the Martha which picked them up. They all survived. Pollard gave up whaling, though he was just in his mid-30s, and returned to Nantucket, Mass., where he became a night watchman — a position of considerably lower status in the whaling town than captain. While the sperm whale attack inspired Melville to write Moby-Dick, the author isn’t believed to have used Pollard as the basis for the book’s notorious Capt. Ahab. Melville actually didn’t meet Pollard until about a year after his novel was published, some three decades after Two Brothers sank. Philbrick said the meeting left a strong impression on the author, whose creation hadn’t been an immediate critical or commercial success. “He was a man who had the worst cards possible dealt to him but was continuing on with nobility and great dignity,” Philbrick said. “He is the anti-Ahab. Ahab is enlisting the devil and whatever to fulfill his crackpot schemes. Pollard was someone who had seen the worst but was quietly going about his life with the utmost humility.” The Two Brothers wrecked in water only 10 to 15 feet deep, and would have likely been stripped clean had it wrecked closer to a populated area. But the isolation of French Frigate Shoals means the site has been untouched. “We had the opportunity to find something that’s probably as close to being a time capsule as we could get,” Gleason said. The Two Brothers was like other New England whaling ships of the time, in that its crew sailed thousands of miles from home hunting whales to harvest their blubber. They boiled the fat of the massive marine mammals into oil used to light lamps in cities from New York to London and to power early industry. The appetite for whale blubber oil, however, meant the ships quickly exhausted successive whale grounds. The Essex was far off the coast of South America when the sperm whale rammed into it. The Two

Brothers was passing through poorly mapped waters northwest of the main Hawaiian islands on the way to recently discovered whale grounds closer to Japan when it hit the reef. “It was kind of like this ship trap of atolls,” Gleason said. “It went from about 40 feet to all of the sudden they were in about 10 feet of water.” For Hawaii, the discovery is a reminder of the great upheaval the whaling industry brought to a kingdom still adjusting to life after the first European travelers arrived. The hundreds of whaling ships that called on Hawaii’s ports starting in 1819 boosted the kingdom’s economy, but this mostly benefitted a few men who became suppliers to the vessels, said Jonathan Osorio, a professor of Hawaiian studies at the University of Hawaii-Manoa. The arrival of thousands of outsiders — some of whom claimed Hawaiian law had no jurisdiction over them because they were American or European — challenged the young monarchy. Gleason said the artifacts are due to go on display at the marine monument’s Discovery Center in Hilo and she hopes the exhibit will travel to Nantucket. The archeologists also have more surveying to do. There’s still no accounting for another five whaling ships that sank in the atolls that now make up the Papahanaumokuakea monument.

Webb to push criminal justice reform before exit

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — U.S. Sen. Jim Webb of Virginia says he plans to push for passage of criminal justice reform legislation before he leaves the Senate in nearly two years. Webb contends that the current system incarcerates too many people at too high a cost, with poor results. He said legislation got bogged down last year but that he’s confident it will pass in this session. “We’re going to get it done,” the 65-year -old Democrat told The Associated Press in a brief phone interview on Friday. Webb announced this week that he had reintroduced the National Criminal Justice Commission Act to create a panel to review the system and make reform recommendations. He noted that the measure had bipartisan support last year, clearing the Senate Judiciary Committee and passing the full House of Representatives. The senator’s announcement Wednesday that he would not seek re-election set of f a scramble among Democrats to field a candidate who could hold the seat for the party in 2012. Many Democrats hope to recruit former Virginia

Gov. T im K a i n e , chairman of the Democratic National Committee, to run. The move could further imperil Democrats’ hopes of maintaining their AP Photo n a r r o w S e n a t e Sen. Jim Webb, D-Va. majority. Webb told the AP that he’s leaving office at the end of a single ter m because he’s got nothing more to prove. He said he has accomplished much of what he campaigned on in 2006, when he successfully launched a long-shot bid to unseat then-Sen. George Allen. “We spent a lot of time thinking about it,” Webb said. “It’s an eightyear decision, not a two-year decision. I’m very competitive, you know that, but sitting down with my family, we said, ‘Six years is about right for me.”’

Republicans, intent on winning back the seat they lost with Webb’s narrow victory, believe his exit improves their odds. Among the declared Republican candidates is Allen, a former Republican governor and congressman who served one Senate term. He is the son of the late NFL coach George Allen. Webb laughed off the suggestion that he was influenced by the prospect of a tough rematch against Allen. “You can’t let this get personal,” he said. Allen already faces one opponent for the GOP nomination, Virginia tea party activist Jamie Radtke, and others are considering a run. Webb said he takes pride in several achievements, including sponsoring and guiding a new package of benefits for U.S. military veterans, the GI Bill of Rights, through Congress three years ago. He had campaigned against what he believed was an imprudent decision by Republican President George W. Bush to commit U.S. troops into Iraq, a conflict in which Webb’s son fought as a Marine. Webb has seen the drawdown of American combat troops there. While Webb said in a statement

Wednesday that he plans to remain involved in issues, he made clear in the interview that he doesn’t think he has to stay in the Senate to effect change. The Senate, he said, should not become a career. “My view of this is kind of old school. The way this place was designed, the Senate was sort of the gathering of the citizen-legislators, people who could bring experience from other areas into the national debate,” Webb said. A Naval Academy graduate and decorated Marine veteran of the Vietnam War, Webb brought a broad resume to the Senate. He was a lawyer, Navy Secretary under President Ronald Reagan, combat journalist, best-selling writer of novels and movie screenplays about Vietnam combat before bolting the GOP to run for the Senate in 2006 as a Democrat. “I think I’ve given our country and the people who elected me exactly what I told them I would give them. I’ve given them a full measure of my devotion for six full years,” Webb said. “That’s about it.”

Spring forecast: Bats, balls sun and eternal hope

The Super Bowl hit a deep freeze, NBA teams got stranded in blizzards, an NHL game was iced by a snowstorm. Most everywhere, the winter weather is wicked. Good thing the weekend forecast in Arizona and Florida calls for sunny skies and temperatures in the 70s: King Felix, Joe Mauer and friends are coming. Spring training is starting up. Let’s trade ski masks for catcher’s masks. And pitchers, take off your mittens and put on those mitts. Just in time, right? “I would say there might be some of them from the Midwest or Northeast who might go to their respective spring training places and accelerate the real estate market,” Colorado Rockies

manager Jim Tracy said. “Unless they really like being behind a snow blower.” Even before the sunscreen mixes with pine tar, Bruce Bochy is eager. World Series champions always want to get going. The San Francisco Giants manager and his players are among the many teams opening camp in the next few days. “Especially some of them who have been in this harsh weather we’ve had this winter, they’re looking forward to getting to spring training,” Bochy said. “I also think when you get two or three weeks off, you start getting a little bit itchy. Then when it gets to late January, you’re ready. You’re ready to get back and see your teammates, getting back on the field

and getting ready for the season,” he said. In many places, that means new pals. Clif f Lee, back in Philadelphia after a oneyear absence. Manny Ramirez and Johnny Damon, taking their hairraising antics to Tampa Bay. Carl Crawford and Adrian Gonzalez, now swinging for Boston. Vladimir Guerrero, Jayson Werth, Vernon Wells, Dan Uggla and World Series MVP Edgar Renteria, all switching uniforms. “It makes you feel good to come here and know they wanted me to play there. It’s awesome,” said strikeout-prone slugger Mark Reynolds, traded from Arizona to Baltimore. “This is kind of a fresh start.” Shaun Marcum already is looking way ahead. Traded from Toronto to Milwau-

kee, he was part of the Brewers’ busy winter — they also acquired former Cy Young winner Zack Greinke from Kansas City. “Nothing against Toronto as an organization, but this is the first time I’ve gone through the of fseason working out and thinking that I’m going to be pitching in October and not ending my season Oct. 2. I’m working hard knowing that I’m going to be pitching Oct. 23, Oct. 24 — just throwing those dates out there,” Marcum said. But there’s plenty of time until then. A lot to do, in fact, before the pitchingrich Phillies host Florida State on Feb. 24 in the first exhibition game of the year. A host of new managers need to meet and greet their guys.

the Brewers and John Farrell of the Blue Jays will be managing for the very first time. In all, 12 teams go into opening day on March 31 with a different skipper than they started with last season. Gone are four longtimers, each leaving with glittery rings — Joe Torre, Bobby Cox, Lou Piniella and Cito Gaston. Also missing this spring, baseball’s newest retirees: Postseason wins champ Andy Pettitte, career saves leader Trevor Hoffman and former World Series MVP Mike Lowell. Still to be decided: Albert Pujols and his contract status. The three-time NL MVP set a deadline for the start of his spring training — either he gets a new deal with the St. Louis Cardinals or he’ll cut off talks until he becomes a free agent after the season.

Wary China warns of Egypt ‘chaos’ after uprising

BEIJING (AP) — China’s state-controlled media downplayed the news of Egypt’s popular uprising that toppled its president, with some outlets carrying only brief items and one editorial warning Saturday that the country could fall into “chaos.” The reluctance to highlight the Cairo celebrations likely stemmed out of wariness of spawning unrest at home that might threaten the Communist Party’s monopoly on power. China’s authoritarian government relentlessly punishes political dissent and bans most public demonstrations. Most Chinese newspapers and online portals were running a terse report on Saturday from the official Xinhua News Agency that gave basic facts about President Hosni Mubarak’s resignation while only briefly mentioning the widespread, emotional demonstrations that brought about his ouster. The news from Egypt was buried in the middle of state television’s noon newscast Saturday. CCTV did not air any footage of protesters but instead used showed scenes of shuttered shops and empty streets. “Social stability should be of overriding importance. Any political changes will be meaningless if the country falls prey to chaos in the end,” said the editorial in the China Daily, an English-language paper.

DEAR ABBY: A friend told me something recently that was so disturbing I’m having trouble sleeping. “Marie” was at a mini-mall when a man parked his car next to hers and walked into one of the stores, leaving a boy about 8 years old in the back seat with a cat. Marie saw the boy abuse and torture the animal. She said she could hear the cat howling through the closed vehicle. When the man returned to the car, my friend approached him and told him what she’d seen. Abby, the man did not say one word. He climbed into his car and drove off. I haven’t been able to get the image out of my head. That child learned his behavior somewhere, and his father condones it! If Marie had not been so shocked, she would have scribbled down the man’s license number and reported the incident to the police or the SPCA. HORRIFIED IN WISCONSIN

I’m struck by the fact that all of those you mentioned require you to make a “quick sale.” With speed dating you establish that you’re both available and there’s a superficial attraction, but not much else. Bars are the worst places I can think of to look for a serious relationship. No one’s at their best after downing a couple of shots, and the noise level isn’t conducive to meaningful conversation. The Internet has been known to bring results, but many people — of both sexes — are wary because so many users fudge the facts on dating sites. Singles events are better, but you might have more luck meeting men if you go places that nice people go, where there’s less pressure. How about volunteering some time in your community — the library, a hospital, the police department, a shelter? I recommend places like these because they offer the chance to form relationships with more depth.

Obama likens budget to family pocketbook choices

WASHINGTON (AP) — Portraying his fiscal choices as kitchen table budgeting, President Barack Obama says he is making difficult cuts to allow needed spending increases in education, technology and basic infrastructure like roads and bridges. In a broad preview of his administration’s budget for fiscal 2012, Obama says the combination of cuts and new spending will result in an overall freeze in annual domestic spending for the next five years. “This budget asks Washington to live within its means, while at the same time investing in our future,” the president said Saturday in his weekly radio and Internet address. The White House plans to release his budget on Mon-

day. With public opinion turning against increased spending, Obama is making a concerted sales pitch to cast his initiatives as fiscally prudent. But the dual goal of taming deficits while adding dollars to selected projects comes as the government faces a projected $1.5 trillion deficit this budget year, which ends in September. Republicans are demanding greater deficit reduction efforts and members of the House GOP say they want to cut the current 2011 budget year by $61 billion. Obama, in his address, recounted the struggles of a Missouri family — David and Brenda Breece — who have faced difficult financial times by living frugally so they can continue to pay

for their daughter’s college tuition. “So Brenda and her husband know what they can do without,” Obama said. “But they also know what investments are too important to sacrifice.” The White House projects that the five-year freeze will save $400 billion over 10 years. Cost-saving measures include a two-year freeze on wages for civilian federal workers. The budget also would make cuts in some cherished programs such as the Low-Income Home Energy Assistance Program, which could be trimmed in half — by about $2.5 billion. The Energy Department plans to propose cutting the Office of Fossil Energy by 45 percent, or $418 million. The Pentagon’s budget

would see reductions of $78 billion. Obama said the government also is getting rid of unused government-owned buildings and he said he would also save money by vetoing legislation that contains earmarks, congressionally inserted spending measures for special projects. At the same time, Obama has proposed a series of new spending initiatives: Education Secretary Arne Duncan said Friday the administration is looking to spend on new early learning programs, on educational overhauls and on making college more affordable. Obama also has a plan to raise $30 billion over 10 years by auctioning of f space on the radio spec-

trum to commercial wireless carriers. The money would be used to develop a $10 billion national broadband network for public safety agencies and $5 billion for infrastructure to help rural areas access high-speed wireless. And he wants to spend $53 billion over six years on high-speed rail. “I’m proposing that we invest in what will do the most to grow the economy in the years to come,” he said. In the Republican address, Sen. Orrin Hatch, RUtah, argued Obama’s reduction plans are too timid. “The president’s proposal for a freeze in government spending might give the White House a nice talking point,” he said. “But it is a

totally inadequate solution to our nation’s spending problems.” Hatch, who is facing reelection this year, is eager to display a tough line on fiscal issues to dissuade a strong tea party challenge like the one that defeated his former Utah colleague, Republican Sen. Bob Bennett. Hatch called for an overhaul of the tax code, fewer regulations, the start of a debate about changing Social Security and Medicare, and new trade deals with South Korea, Panama and Colombia. “The bottom line is we are a nation working on borrowed time; we have to make some significant changes in order to compete,” he said.

SEC files fraud charges against 3 RRH observes ‘National Wear Red Day’ ex-IndyMac execs Triton Group News By Mike Bush

Roswell Regional Hospital employees joined in the fight against heart disease, Friday, Feb. 4, “National Wear Red Day,” by dressing in red to support the American Heart Association’s “Go Red for Women” campaign. Employees also showed their support by buying and wearing American Heart Association “Red Dress” pins, according to Sheila Nuñez, the hospital’s human resources director. Proceeds from sale of the pins, which sold for $2 apiece, will go to the AHA. The RRH cafeteria served heart-healthy snacks from 2 to 3 p.m. Heart-healthy recipes and exercises that promote heart health also were shared with employees and visitors. A quiz was given to see how well-informed participants were about heart disease. “According to the American Heart Association, over 81 million American adults suffer from one or more cardiovascular diseases,” Nuñez said. “Heart disease is still the number one killer of women, taking the life of one in three women each year. Heart disease claims the lives of over 433,000 American women each year.” Women are dying from heart disease at a rate of almost one a minute “because they don’t know what we know, that heart disease kills,” she said.

Chief Quality Officer Earns Certifications

Roswell Regional Hospital’s Quality and Compliance Officer has earned certifications in healthcare risk management and healthcare quality. Lisa Thompson earned the designation of Certified Professional in Healthcare Risk Management from the American Hospital Association Certification Center. An AHA press release says the CPHRM is a “national credential that distinguishes an individual as being among the elite in the healthcare risk management profession.” To earn the certification, Thompson had to satisfy requirements that included professional experience and education, agree to the AHA Professional Standards of Conduct and pass the CPHRM Certification Examination, which she did on her first attempt in October. According to the press release, the test “assesses knowledge required of a competent healthcare risk manager in the areas of loss prevention/reduction, claims management, risk financing, regulatory/accreditation compliance, operations and bioethics.” “The CPHRM Program supports the community of healthcare risk managers and is designed to provide an objective and rigorous assessment of mastery of a welldefined body of professional knowledge,” the release states. “Additionally, certificants demonstrate their continued professional development and commitment to the profession by maintaining the certification through participation in professional development activities.” Recently, with another certification issued by the Healthcare Quality Certification Board, Thompson became a Certified Professional in Healthcare Quality. The exam, which Thompson passed on the first attempt in November, tests “knowledge and understanding of the process to achieve regulatory compliance and accreditation/licensure, program development and management along a continuum of care, and quality improvement concepts as well as departmental management skills,” a press release states, adding that more than 10,700 people in the world have received the certification. Thompson said she is very pleased to receive the certifications, which cover two of the areas she supervises at Roswell Regional Hospital, Risk Management and Quality. “It was not required as part of my job,” she said. “I just personally and professionally wanted to take the exams to advance my abilities, as well as be of service to the facility.” Thompson, who began working at Roswell Regional Hospital in Aug. 2009, has been in the healthcare field for 24 years. Roswell Regional Chief Executive Officer, Rod Schumacher, said he has always known that “Lisa is synonymous with quality.”

Hospital Chooses Morones as Department Director of the Year

Roswell Regional Hospital has recognized Executive Chef Mariano Morones as Department Director of the Year for 2010. Morones has been the executive chef and head of the hospital’s food service department since the hospital opened in 2007. He supervises 18 people, including line cooks, dishwashers, dietary aides, dietary tech clerks, cashiers and prep cooks. Under his leadership, the department provides food for patients (prepared to patients’ dietary requirements in consultation with a dietician), employees and visitors. The department also offers catering for outside events. His supervisor, Roswell Regional Hospital’s Chief Quality Officer Lisa Thompson, said he is an exemplary leader. “He leads by example,” she said. “He is professional and caring. He has high standards for his staff in the quality of food they provide to visitors, patients and our employees. He focuses on customer service and making sure that not only is the food extraordinary but whoever they’re serving is treated with kindness and professionalism.” She said he arrives at work early and doesn’t hesitate to jump to help prepare food, sweep floors or whatever is needed. “He’s just an extraordinary team leader, well respected by his staff, as well as directors and other employees within the facility,” she said. Rod Schumacher, chief executive officer of Roswell Regional, said it was a “daunting task” to choose a department director of the year out of “a host of very qualified and dedicated individuals.” “Mariano distinguished himself, however, with his unique style of management, the quality of products his department turns out and his relentless commitment to this community,” Schumacher said. Morones and his department have provided food and beverages for large and small groups meeting at the hospital “and always do so with skill and finesse.” He said, “Our patient surveys indicate that he’s doing a good job with patient food service as well, and this brings great pride to our hospital.”

Dr. Seivwright receives board certification

Dr. Trudy Seivwright, who joined Rio Pecos Medical Associates in August 2008, has received her certification as an obstetrician and gynecologist with the American Board of Obstetrics & Gynecology. Seivwright said most new graduates go through the board-certification process with ABOG, an independent, nonprofit organization that certifies obstetricians and gynecologists after one or two years of practice. The evaluation is based on consistency, conservatism and caring, she added. “It is a blessing and a relief to be acknowledged by my fellow OB/GYNs,” Seivwright said. “It came through prayer, hard work as well as the support of my colleagues, my friends and my family. “The certification is however only one phase of my career and now the growth continues,” Seivwright added. “I love what I do and I strive every day to be better at it. Now I can focus on being better.” Seivwright said the other physicians at Rio Pecos, Drs. Rick Mooney, Steve North and Yancey Peterson, helped her prepare for the certification examination by their examples. “The Rio Pecos group is unique,” she said. “These three physicians are uniquely different but completely cohesive and clinically strong. I have learned a lot from all three and it made the board certification process easier.” Seivwright, born and raised in Jamaica, completed undergraduate studies at the University of the West Indies.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal regulators filed civil fraud charges Friday against three former executives of the parent of IndyMac Bank, accusing them of misleading investors about the mortgage lender’s finances before it collapsed in July 2008. The Securities and Exchange Commission announced the charges against Michael Perry, former chief executive of Pasadena, Calif.-based IndyMac Bancorp, and former chief financial officers, Scott Keys and Blair Abernathy. Abernathy agreed to settle, paying a $100,000 fine and $26,592 in restitution plus interest. In addition, Abernathy will be barred from practicing as an accountant for any public company for two years; after that time he can apply to be reinstated. He neither admitted nor denied wrongdoing but did agree to refrain from future violations of the securities laws. Perry and Keys, through their lawyers, disputed the charges pending against them and said they will contest them in court. The SEC said the three executives took part in filing false and misleading public reports about the financial stability of IndyMac Bank and the holding company, which filed for bankruptcy protection after the bank failed.

Weber says ECB job problematic

BERLIN (AP) — The outgoing head of Germany’s Bundesbank says he decided against seeking the presidency of the European Central Bank because his opposition to its bond-buying program would have posed a credibility problem. Axel Weber was long a favorite to succeed Jean-Claude Trichet this fall. But that status evaporated this week and Weber decided Friday to leave the Bundesbank in April, a year early. Weber last year voiced unease over the ECB’s program to buy government bonds. He called for the program to be stopped. Weber was quoted Saturday as telling Der Spiegel magazine he decided over recent months not to seek the ECB job. He said that the ECB president has a “special position — but if he represents a minority opinion on important questions, then the credibility of this office suffers.

Greek gov’t slams int’l debt inspectors

ATHENS, Greece (AP) — Greece’s gover nment spokesman has sharply criticized European and International Monetary Fund debt inspectors overseeing the country’s efforts to reform its economy as part of a bailout loan deal. In a statement issued early Saturday, Giorgos Petalotis accused the inspectors of interfering in Greece’s internal affairs, and said their behavior at a news conference on Friday was unacceptable. Representatives from the IMF, European Commission and European Central Bank held the news conference at the end of their regular quarterly inspection visit to review Greece’s reforms. They said Greece must privatize 50 billion ($68 billion) in state assets and speed up structural reforms in the next few months to keep the country’s troubled finances afloat.

U2 comes to South Africa at historic moment

JOHANNESBURG (AP) — It’s fitting that one of the most politically plugged-in rock bands is debuting its world tour in South Africa on the anniversary of Nelson Mandela’s first major rally after being released from prison, and at the same stadium where the anti-apartheid icon enthralled tens of thousands. And it’s a coincidence, U2 members told reporters Friday before a rehearsal at the historic FNB Stadium — known as Soccer City when it hosted the World Cup opening and closing games

last year, for which it underwent a major renovation. Guitarist The Edge said he only learned the day before that Sunday’s concert fell on a historic day. “It’s such a beautiful, poetic day,” he said. Lead singer Bono noted that history was being made at the other end of Africa. In Egypt Friday, Hosni Mubarak resigned as president after three decades in power and weeks of pro-democracy protests. “This continent is on fire,”

Bono said, adding he hoped Egypt would benefit from leadership as visionary as Mandela’s. The Edge added, “The real hope for Egypt is that it actually will become more democratic after this.” Bono said Mandela and retired Cape Town Archbishop Desmond Tutu — who makes a virtual appearance in U2’s current show — have inspired his global campaigns against AIDS and poverty. Bono was planning to visit AIDS projects in South Africa between Sunday’s concert and a second

one in Cape Town on Feb. 18. U2 last played in South Africa in 1998. The band may also visit Mandela, who is 92, ailing, and retired from public life. Bono said he had been in touch and learned Mandela was doing well after being hospitalized last month with an acute respiratory infection. Bono said a visit was possible, but he would not push. “The last thing you want to be is the visit that the great man has to endure,” he said. The band discussed their musi-

cal and well as political heroes with reporters Friday. Bassist Adam Clayton said he would like to work with the Malian duo Amadou & Mariam, an opening act for their South African shows. Bono spoke of an early dream of having John Lennon produce their work, laughing at their naivete in their teens. The band members, together three decades, said the secret to their longevity was friendship. “We actually started out as friends, and then became a band,” The Edge said.

NY Fashion Week looks to nighttime glamour for day NEW YORK (AP) — There’s been plenty of talk about day-to-night dressing in these frugal times. Next season, you might try night-to-day instead. Designers at New York Fashion Week flipped the script on Friday, incorporating nighttime glamour into daytime classics instead of leaving women to glam up their more casual clothes. Jason Wu turned “classic” around with modern looks that evoked yesteryear in lace trim, high necks and full sleeves. For his contemporary Z Spoke label, Zac Posen showed a navy dress that would look great for daytime with a cardigan — but take off the sweater, and the back is completely bare. Peter Som presented beaded evening pants that could be paired with a work-appropriate dress shirt. In the second day of fall previews, designers were veering away from basics, seemingly encouraging shoppers to invest in some fancier pieces and figure out how to wear them more often. New York Fashion Week continues through Thursday.

Jason Wu

More than 15 types of lace were featured, and it seemed everything was dipped in gold-leaf embroidery, including the models’ hair. Silhouettes were modest, almost conservative, but colors ranging from barely there neutrals to electric blue and hot pink added youthfulness and sex appeal. Strategic sparkle didn’t hurt, either. Wu made the modern elegant in a lace-trim hoodie parka, a feminine tuxedo-inspired shirt dress and a champagne-colored sheer blouse adorned with feathers made of beading. Wu is known for dressing Michelle Obama, including the first lady’s inaugural gown. This season, he put into fabrics the same vibe photographer Robert Polidori used for his book Parcours Museologique Revister, which traced restorations at Ver-

sailles. The last two gowns on the runway, a black chiffon with a huge slit up the front and a bright pink strapless with gold embellishment at the bustline and waistband, seem ripe for a starlet looking to elevate her image.

Rag & Bone

Some of the coolest kids in town will be wearing heavy-duty layers of tweed, tartan, leather, wool and neoprene when the fall rolls around, thanks to Rag & Bone. The brand’s fall collection borrowed from Eskimos, Inuits, Native Americans and Siberians — with a few ’70s skiers thrown in, according to notes from designers Marcus Wainwright and David Neville. The result was a mashup of texture, silhouettes and color that Vogue market director Meredith Melling Burke said was one of the duo’s strongest collections. “It fit their customers, who really wear street-style clothes. They can use all these knits with the denim they have,” she said. Legwarmers — yes, legwarmers, these with gold zippers up the back — had a strong presence on the runway in a SoHo loft space. Backstage after the show, Neville picked an orange-blue-black-andivory wool gauze skirt, worn with a blue-andwhite top and matching legwarmers as one of his favorites and representative of the overall aesthetic.

Peter Som

There’s something to be said for getting your glam on every day. Allow Peter Som to help you with that. Pewter -color sequined pants for work? No problem when paired with a gray cardigan and printed blouse. Facing serious winter weather? A mink-lined twill parka slides right over an orange, lace-bonded tweed suit. The head-to-toe look of a lace herringbone coat and skirt with a white crepe shirt, and the coordinated

floral-print lining of a twillleather-and-fox coat with a sheath dress, are for women ready for a polished-yet-unstuffy look. “It’s a young luxury,” said Tommy Hilfiger from his front-row seat. “Peter speaks to a younger woman, but not someone who is flamboyant.” In addition to his own collection, Som serves as a design consultant for Hilfiger. Som might have gotten carried away on some outfits, though, especially with the fur sleeves that bulked up some of his outerwear and a fawn-colored dress with tiers of ruffles around the bodice that added fabric where most women don’t want it.

Zac Posen

Zac Posen toned it down for his contemporary Z Spoke label this season. No big runway production for New York Fashion Week. No wild fruit prints. And certainly none of the theatrics that Posen was famous for with his signature label, which now gets previewed in Paris. Instead, editors, retailers and stylists were invited to his downtown studio for individual appointments to see some no-frill clothes — clothes that women will be likely to buy and wear. That was the thing about Posen’s grandest moments — thinking of the tornado and wheat gowns, for example: They made beautiful photos, but who could pull them off anywhere but the catwalk? But slim-cut stretch jersey dresses in navy, black and a dusty rose with Posen’s flattering technique of piecing together fabric are the sort of things that can be worn over and over again. Loose-weave, oversized cardigans can top dresses that are office-appropriate from the front, yet have fully open backs to add spice later in the day. There are also the more consumer-friendly prices, with dresses that would retail in the $450 range and handbags starting at $200.

Nicole Miller

Nicole Miller relies for fall on a sophisticated edge using digital prints, diagonal stripes and asymmetrical necklines. The collection was heavy on blacks and greys with splashes of red, blue and white. Miller showed several

looks with a belt over a coat or vest. She also combined cashmere and leather to create sweaters and tunics. Some pants had leather patches at the knees. Angles over curves had a menswear influence, according to the show’s notes. “Pants, slouchy or slim, are a new focal point.” Liz Rodbell, Lord & Taylor’s executive vice president of merchandising, said the department store sees Miller’s customer as a chic, metropolitan woman. “We look at her line, it really expresses a lot of color for us and helps determine where the business is going,” Rodbell said.

Cynthia Rowley

Designer Peter Som acknowledges the audience after his fall 2011 collection of designer was modeled during Fashion Week in New York, Friday.

Blue lights bathed the runway and a drum beat pounded before Cynthia Rowley debuted a collection of printed, flowy silk dresses and glittered sweaters for fall at New York Fashion Week. Her hemlines varied from just above the knee to nearly on the floor. Dresses were loose fitting and willowy, moving easily around models in chunky metallic high heels. Rowley called them “walking dresses,” or “dancing dresses.” She used a green and brown chevron print on a swingy, silk dress with a tie at the neck. A long

sleeved cream dress had a multicolored band hem that swayed back and forth. Rowley also used disintegrated velvets for dresses. One sleeveless, deep green velvet dress had an upside-down T -shaped panel on the back. The pants of a yellow velveteen suit were the length of culottes. Actress Julia Stiles was in the front row. “She’s got such a fun, playful attitude toward clothing that I think is reflected in her designs.”

Rebecca Minkoff

Rebecca Minkoff’s fall mix of luxury and bohemian was inspired by Sean Lennon’s girlfriend, modelturned-singer Charlotte Kemp Muhl. The bonus was a performance by Lennon once the lights went down. He played for the duration of the show. Minkoff admires Muhl’s mastery of vintage and new. The designer showed black cigarette pants with patches on the knees and a leopard print jumpsuit with a black leather belt and black and gold handbag. A skirt in a leopard print had an asymmetrical hem and was worn with a black sequined off-the-shoulder sweater. The show’s finale was a flowy floor-length V-neck gown in a nearly sheer green and black print.

Actress Marie Lillo dies at 81 ENTERTAINMENT

Roswell Daily Record

LELAND, Miss. (AP) — Actress Marie Lillo, who sang opera and performed in musical comedies and on television during her 60year career, has died. She was 81. Lillo’s niece, Connie Lillo Thieman, told The Associated Press on Friday that Lillo died of cancer Feb. 1 in Los Angeles. Lillo toured with Milton Berle as a member of a classical quartet who sang while he performed and she won a 1998-99 Drama League Award for the character Emma in Joe DiPietro’s of fBroadway hit Over the River and Through the Woods. Lillo’s niece says Lillo’s career

started in opera. Lillo’s later roles included an old hunchback psychic nun in the NBC series “Passions” and as Maggie Jones in David Merrick’s 42nd Street — her Broadway debut, her family said. She also starred in a number of Las Vegas productions, costarred in the Texas tour of Deathtrap with Leslie Nielsen, and with Cesar Romero in the national tour of The Max Factor. “She was just a life force, on stage and off,” DiPietro said. When he adapted Babes in Arms for Goodspeed Musicals in 2002, he added the role of the world’s oldest living chorus girl. “We needed someone who could

sing and do comedy and was a real sort-of broad,” he said. At the first rehearsal, DiPietro said, Lillo belted out “The Lady is a Tramp” and the rest of the cast stopped to give her a standing ovation. “She brought the house down every time,” he said. She spent years touring with Berle as one of four operatrained singers who performed classical quartets while Berle per for med with his ventriloquist’s dummies, said Stephen Loyacano, who became friends with Lillo while both were at Loyola University in New Orleans and went on to write for television and movies as Stephen

Lord. Lillo was born in New Jersey. Her parents moved to Leland near the Mississippi-Arkansas border and opened a restaurant when she was young. She graduated from Loyola and also studied at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London. Lillo returned to Leland after her mother had a stroke in 1984, and spent several years caring for her. “For someone with her level of talent, it was an amazing thing to do,” DiPietro said. “When she got back into it, she started getting into theater, some TV things — she did well for herself.”

Lillo taught voice and acting, despite the cancer, which returned in April after she had six healthy years, Thieman said. When the cancer came back, Lillo said, “‘If I can’t teach, this is not a life I want to live,”’ Thieman said. “She loved teaching — loved giving away what she had. She was such an encourager. You felt like you were her favorite. She made everybody feel like that.” A funeral Mass will be celebrated Saturday in Leland. A memorial service was scheduled Saturday at Theatre 40 in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Former AP, Egypt coverage creates unforgettable daytime TV CNN exec Jon Petrovich dies NEW YORK (AP) — The fall of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak’s government Friday made for a giddy day of media coverage that combined the historical sweep of an event such as the fall of the Berlin Wall with the pandemonium of New Year’s Eve in Times Square. “This is one of those days that all of us would say we’ll never forget,” CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer said, in words that were soon echoed in a midafternoon speech by President Barack Obama. A week ago, Blitzer’s colleague Anderson Cooper cowered in a Cairo hotel room with shades drawn for a live broadcast, following two days in which the regime Mubarak unleashed men to beat, intimidate and take into custody journalists who had entered Egypt to cover pro-democracy demonstrations. The climax of the 18-day revolution came suddenly on Friday, in a short speech by Vice President Omar Suleiman that Mubarak had resigned and turned power over to the military. “It was so brief I thought I had missed it,” said NBC News reporter Richard Engel. “Then the crowds around me began to cheer.” Thousands danced in the street, waving flags, crying and cheering into the Egyptian night. The images of those scenes were key elements in all the coverage. Fox News Channel’s Leland Vittert was delivering a live report from above Cairo’s Tahrir Square, seemingly un-aware that Suleiman had been speaking, when the crowd’s eruption caught him off guard. “We’re now hearing this unbelievable roar from the crowd,” Vittert said. “We don’t know what that’s about. This is about as developing a situation as you can get. It’s unbelievable what’s going on in the square.” Studio news anchors in New York, scanning their computers, filled Vittert in on the reason for the cheering. Vittert later stood in Tahrir Square, surrounded by people chanting and shouting. One man held

up a baby for the cameras and another, behind Vittert, a banner in English proclaiming, “Mission Accomplished.” He called it an “absolutely incredible party.” “This is a celebration of a country that has finally stood up for itself,” he said. The crowd quickly quieted down when Vittert asked, “What do you think of America?” Said one man, “50-50.” “We love the American people, not the American system,” another man said. The Associated Press sent a flash to its members in covering the story Thursday and Friday, once when Mubarak said he had passed his authority to his vice president and again when he stepped down. That’s the AP’s highest priority for a story, used only four times since Obama was elected president. CNN was sharpest of the TV networks in covering the pivotal moment. It carried Suleiman’s speech, with a translator whose voice betrayed obvious surprise. As soon as the key word “resign” was heard, microphones in Tahrir Square picked up a noise that sounded like a late touchdown pass had been caught. Each of the broadcast networks interrupted regular daytime programming

for special reports within five minutes. NBC’s Brian Williams was the only one of the top three anchors on duty (David Muir was on for Diane Sawyer for ABC; Jeff Glor for Katie Couric on CBS) and the experience showed. He was quickest to catch the historic import of the moment and the extraordinary nature of the response, pausing for 15 seconds and suggesting viewers simply listen. As Ron Allen delivered a report from Tahrir Square, a man leaned into his microphone. “I am so happy,” the man said, adding “Mubarak, you have ugly face.” The moment illustrated how everyday Egyptians, many of them reluctant to speak to journalists for the past two weeks, or reluctant to be seen criticizing Mubarak, suddenly changed and crowded around reporters, hoping for a chance to deliver their opinions. “This is what freedom sounds like,” Allen said. “It’s the only way I can describe it.” Muir and Christiane Amanpour were much more cautious in their initial ABC report, concentrating on questions of how the succession would work. It didn’t help that on-scene correspondent Jim Sciutto’s connection initially cut off (“Can you hear me, New York?” he

said). Terry Moran seemed to snap everyone to attention. “It is astonishing,” he said. “The news hit this crowd like an enormous wave.” At CBS, on-scene reporter Elizabeth Palmer noted how the day brought many uncertainties with it, but Egyptians were intent on celebrating their achievement. Al Jazeera’s English network, little seen in the U.S. but available on the Internet, displayed the advantage of its staffing throughout the Arab world. Al Jazeera aired pictures from Alexandria when U.S.-based networks had nothing beyond Cairo. Correspondent Ayman Mohyeldin struggled slightly to keep emotions in check when asked by his anchors what he felt personally about the moment. “I never thought I would live to see a day like this,” Mohyeldin said. On Fox, anchor Megyn Kelly expressed worry about some of what she was seeing, noting that many people in Israel were worried about what a new Egyptian government would mean and whether it would be an opening to power for Muslim extremists. “Rather than the negativity,” commentator Alan Colmes told her, “let’s support this.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Former CNN and Associated Press executive Jon Petrovich has died following a battle with cancer and diabetes. Petrovich, who would have turned 64 on Feb. 28, died Thursday in New York City, said his nephew, Ron Petrovich. A widely respected broadcast executive, Petrovich joined the AP in 2007. As Vice President for Broadcast U.S. Operations, he oversaw the day-to-day domestic operations, working with AP’s broadcast wire, online, radio and television platforms. Petrovich “deeply understood and loved the broadcast business and was very optimistic about the possibilities of digital media,” said Sue Cross, AP’s senior vice president of U.S. media markets. “He was a force in encouraging our broadcast teams to explore new ways of delivering news, and always a source of inspiration and humor.” Petrovich served as executive vice president of CNN for 15 years, where he developed CNN Interactive, which produces CNN.com., CNN en Espanol and many of the company’s niche channels. He was instrumental in developing CNN’s news service to affiliates and its airport network. He also held the title of president of Turner Broadcasting Latin America for two years. Former CNN president Tom Johnson said Petrovich was brought in by Ted Turner to run CNN’s Headline News, which he built into a prominent presence on the cable spectrum. “He was a tremendous innovator and a creative force,” Johnson said. “He

really was somebody who helped lead CNN into the future.” Before joining AP, Petrovich was a professor and chairman of the broadcast department at the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University in Evanston, Ill. He served as visiting distinguished lecturer and on the school’s board of advisers in the 1990s. He oversaw international networks for Sony Television. Besides news, Petrovich’s passions included fine food and dining. He “at least tried to find every great restaurant in every city throughout the world,” recalled his nephew, Ron. A native of Gary, Ind., Petrovich began his career in 1970 as a reporter at WHAS-TV in Louisville, Ky. While news director at WBAL-TV in Baltimore, the station won an Edward R. Murrow Award for best regional newscast. Besides his nephew, Petrovich is survived by his wife, Karen, a daughter and a son, and three grandchildren.
