CELEBRATED 24 HOURS OF PINK ON FRIDAY,OCTOBER 22!
In recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness month Sierra
Providence East Medical Center (SPEMC) located at 3280
JoeBattle Blvd hosted "Think Pink Day". The day was
kicked off by honoring Nora Paugh, El Dorado High school

cial walk will start at 7AM in front of the hospital. An esti-mated 450 people which
included students from El
Dorado High School, soldiers
from Fort Bliss, neighbor-
hood associations along with employees from the hospital
attended this inspiring event to honor breast cancer sur-
vivors, raise awareness about the disease, and perhaps help
save lives in the process.
As community partners SPEMC other activities that include
freephysician educational seminars for the public, testimo-
nial from a breast cancer survivor along with the SierraProvidence Health Network breast cancer navigator. The
hospital also took mammo walk-ins during this celebration.
These activities are all part of Sierra Providence Health Net-
work initiative to raise awareness for breast cancer by bring-
ing events that are inspiring, uplifting, and are important for
bringing the fight against cancer directly to its employees
and the community at all three campuses (Sierra Medical
Center, Providence Memorial Hospital, and Sierra Provi-
dence East Medical Center).
According to the American Cancer Society, in 2009, an esti-
mated 192,370 women in the United States were diagnosed with invasive breast cancer andabout 40,610 women were expected to die from the disease.The association also states that
about 1,910 men in the United States were diag-
nosed with breast cancer.

By Joe Olvera , 2010Hes been criticized
for writing legislation to
make the sopaipilla (a Mexi-can sweet bread) the official
Bread of Texas; he wants to
pass a bill that targets inatten-
tive driving, such as reading,
writing, personal grooming
such as shaving or applying
make-up - and, of course,
using a cell phone - all while
driving a motor vehicle. He
was labeled as furniture by
a major Texas publication.
Yet, for all his mis-
steps and off-beat recommen-
dations as the District 75
Representative to the State
Legislature from El Paso,
Texas, Chente Quintanilla, a
retired school administrator
for the Socorro ISD, contin-
ues to win re-election time
and time again, to the point
that its tough for anyone, in-
cluding Democrats and Re-publicans, to drum up a rival
to upend the very popular
lawmaker. Quintanilla hails
from El Pasos Mission Val-
ley in the small rural town of
Tornillo, Texas.
Three years ago,
they made a big deal in
Austin, saying that I beat the
jinx when I was elected to
my third term, Quintanilla
said. My secret is to neverlose touch with my people,
those who elect me. Im not
so much concerned with
making a lot of noise in
Austin, Ive never forgotten
my people, those who elected
me and sent me to represent
them. Quintanilla has won
four elections, and is on his
way to a fifth victory. He has
no opposition, so its a given
that he will be sworn in again
in January.
When I was
named furniture by that
Texas magazine, it was be-
cause I dont go up to the
back mike to defend my
bills. I get along well with
everyone, so any bill that I
present has the support of
many legislators. Im not
going to fight with anyonethere. My main concern is to
help those in my district who
cant help themselves.
Prior to Quin-
tanillas first run against
then-incumbent Manny Na-
jera in 2002, office-holders in
the 75th district had a reputa-
tion for bringing problems on
themselves, thus, there were
many who served only oneterm. For example, long be-
fore Quintanilla represented
his district, the late Tony
Parra became a one-term leg-
islator. Parra, a former ac-
tivist and community leader,
won his campaign by carry-ing a wooden cross through-
out his district. Parra
replaced another one-term
representative in Nick Perez,
who lost his campaign when
he was accused by Austin po-
lice frequently of domestic
violence.
Another representa-
tive who didnt fare too well
was Gilbert Serna, who was
accused of any number of
misdeeds, including accusa-
tions that he sexually ha-
rassed a male employee;
demanded that some of his
employees to whom he gave
pay raises share their extra
income with him; and the fact
that he owed more than
$230,000 to the IRS, among
other wrong-doings. Serna
became known as Its abunch of lies Serna because
he responded in such a fash-
ion to those making accusa-
tions. .
My staff of Robert
Grijalva and Nina Serna help
to handle my business in ElPaso, Quintanilla said. Im
proud of the fact that were
able to solve 90 percent of
the problems which hinder
my constituents. I dont fol-
low Austins protocol. My
style is working with my fel-
low representatives. Im not
out there fighting all the time,
theres really no need. Weve
got to all work together to get
the business of the people
done.
Quintanilla said
hes not ambitious to occupy
any other office, and hes sat-
isfied with what he has been
able to accomplish. Im
comfortable where I am and I
dont aspire for higher office.
My best thing is responding
to those who elected me, and
who continue to vote for mewhen I run. Im able to do
that because the people in
Austin respond well to me. I
want to keep it that way.

Protect Your PropertyHola mi
gente,
I have had
the privilege
of serving
the con-stituents in
District 75
for almost
eight years.
During this
period, I have had a solid commit-
ment to make my office available
for the people to visit and ask for
assistance. I am proud to say that
we have followed through on that
commitment.
While we have listened, there havebeen many instances where our
ability to resolve problems was lim-
ited because of jurisdiction or law.
The office of State Representative
is not the powerful office that a
congressional office is.
Constituents visiting us have asked
for assistance on a great many is-
sues. Some, like the problem that
seniors had with Medicare Advan-tage plan agents, were resolved
over time by working with the fed-
eral and state agencies which over-
see the plans. Others,
unfortunately, were not so easy to
fix.
I would say that the most frequent
request by constituents had in some
way or another to do with their
homestead. Since most of the area
in my district is unincorporated,
utilities and water were most fre-quently looked into. A decade ago,
there were estimates in the tens of
thousands of residents who had no
water hookups. Today that number
is less than three thousand and
dwindling. The effort by the legis-
lature to pass stringent laws restrict-
ing the growth of colonias and the
efforts by local water districts were
the reason for the turnaround.I do feel somewhat dissatisfied with
our inability to help some of our
residents. Since the proliferation of
colonias had ceased, I had hoped
that some of the restrictions im-
posed on poorer families could
have been reasonably moderated.
The County of El Paso did not
agree with me.
Unfortunately, the next most dis-
cussed issue by my office had to do
with the ownership of a home. Ofcourse, so many individuals suc-
cumbed to the bad economy and
lost their homes to foreclosure.
Constituents on a frequent basis re-
quested assistance after already
being notified about foreclosure.
That was too late. Resources are
available for those who seek help
when the first signs of problems
with paying mortgages occur.Altogether too many times, we vis-
ited with homeowners who were
being victimized by dishonest sell-
ers. Constituents who had paid for
years on a plot of land and a pre-
fabricated home all of a sudden
faced the possibility of losing both.
Most of the these families had very
limited educations which made
them vulnerable.
For these homeowners, the seller
fabricated reasons to take back theproperty. In a few cases, authorities
intervened with legal action.
Recently, we have spoken to fami-
lies who face problems due to cleri-
cal snafus. Whether it be from
stealthy covenants or changes in the
mortgage companies, problems
arise that should have been antici-
pated.
In any and all cases, taking carewhen closing on a mortgage or war-
ranty deed, the buyer should under-
stand every clause in the document.
It would even be advisable to con-
sult an attorney.
The best way to protect your prop-
erty is to understand all documents
and to preserve all payment
records. Take a proactive approach
to safeguarding your homestead.
I remain your friend and public ser-
vant,
Chente por la gente.

Weather Trivia:How long do tornadoes typically
last?
Answer:Atypicallyonlyacoupleofminutes
Wow, what a day Wednesday,
October 20th! We had 12 severe thun-
derstorm warnings and 2 tornado warn-
ings issued by the National Weather
Service out of Santa Teresa. While we
are used to thunderstorm warnings, tor-
nado warnings are very seldom issued
throughout our area. But that Wednes-
day, all the ingredients came together
for that to occur.
The tornado warning was issued forthe cell in Otero county just north of
Orogrande. Doppler radar indicated ro-
tation within the storm so that was
enough to issue the warning. Fortu-
nately the rotation did not lead to a
touchdown.
Tornadoes form in severe thunder-
storms which we typically see the
worse in September and October here
in the El Paso area. A severe thunder-
storm will usually develop along frontal
boundaries, such as when a cold front
moves into an area. Behind the front is
cold polar air and in front is the warm
moist humid air, the two colliding dif-
ferent air masses can form large thun-
derstorms which tornadoes come from.
Tornadoes also form along what is
called a dryline. This also occurs when
two different air masses meet, usually
on the west side of this line it is warm
and very dry, to the east of the
dryline, it is warm, moist and
humid. In between is what is
called the dry line, and sooner
or later thunderstorms will start to form
there. If the dryline is in this area, you
can actually look in that direction and
see the thunderhead clouds actually bil-
lowing up right along the dryline.
Thats what we had last week whenstorms formed east of Las Cruces in
Otero county and on the far east side of
El Paso County.
Before a thunderstorm develops, there
are horizontal spinning winds blowing,
due to changing wind directions, speeds
and heights. When the two differing air
masses meet and the storm starts to
build, the warm moist air rushes up-
ward where it meets cold dry air, which
creates strong updrafts in the storm.
These updrafts can encounter winds
blowing at different directions within
the cloud, which is called wind shear. It
is the updrafts that cause the horizontal
winds to start to tilt to a vertical mo-
tion. The updrafts also cause the stormto build and that is what you see as it
towers higher. It is also these updrafts
and downdrafts that cause the hail to
form, freezing a little more each time
they go back up. If the winds are blow-
ing right and there is enough wind
shear it will cause the storm to rotate.
This rotation can cause a wall cloud to
form, clouds that are a lowering at the
base of a thunderstorm.
Usually towards the back of the storm
or the southwest backside of the storm
you will see a lowering of clouds. From
this wall cloud is most likely where you
will see a funnel. Some wall clouds are
very well defined and others you have
to really look for. If the tornado is in
the middle of rain or hail, you might
not see it approaching, this is what is
called rain wrapped. At night you
cant see them expect in flashes of
lightening.

It's like a great pair of
shoes or a fabulous handbag. The
perfect coat or jacket can instantly
transform your wardrobe ... even if
you don't have it all together under-
neath. It's what's on the outside that
counts when it comes to choosingyour outerwear. First impressions
do make a difference.
But style is not the only criteria for
finding that perfect coat. How a
coat fits you, however, may be the
best way to determine what coat to
buy, according to Paula Reed,
British fashion expert and author of
"Style Clinic" (Harper Collins,
$27.95). Before you start your coat
caper searching for the perfectcamel coat (this year's must-have
topper), take a few tips from Reed
on finding the coat that fits your
body:
The most versatile coat for al-
most all figures is a narrow, figure-
skimming, three-quarter length
coat that hits right on or below the
knee. "It is both modern and flatter-
ing," she says. "Curvier figures
look good in its figure-skimming
sleekness. If you are big-bosomed,
go for an open collar that is cut on
the wide side. It will never look
dated."
A soft, belted style is the next
most versatile shape for most fig-
ures, according to the style expert.
"It works as easily with jeans and
trousers as dresses. Just make sure
the fabric is supple enough todrape, not clump."
And if you're tall, stick to a
longer coat. "Anyone under 5 feet 7
inches should avoid floor-skim-
ming styles or anything below mid-
calf," she says.
Belts are a great figure enhancer
unless you have substantial hips,
says Reed. "A belted coat will give
almost anyone an hourglass fig-
ure," she adds. "But those who are
short-waisted or wide in the middle
look better in slim, tailored coats
without a belt."
If you are curvy, accentuating
the narrowest part of your body
your waist will give you instant
glamour, admits Reed. "Belted
coats, whether they hit below the
knee or mid-thigh, look good," she
says. "But a three-quarter lengthcoat that skims the body will look
even better. Short, boxy styles will
make your curves look bulky. So
will voluminous A-lines that drop
from the shoulders." Instead, Reed
suggests choosing tailored, curve-
friendly options.
Be wary of thick, bulky fabrics.
Steer clear of the puffy parkas if
your body is not on the slim side.
"If you don't want to add extrapoundage," she says, "opt for un-
padded versions."
If you're petite, belted shapes
that sit on or just above the knee
will look great, says Reed. "Short
coats will increase leg length."
Proportion is the most important
facet of finding the perfect coat
that flatters your body, adds Reed.
"You must take time to assess how
the bulk of a coat affects your fig-
ure," she says. "It can do good
things such as smoothing over
problem areas or bad things such as
adding width where you don't need
it. So try to be as objective as pos-
sible."
Top 10 Coat Trends
"There's no easier way to update
your basic look than to slip on a
coat with a little attitude," says
Reed.
Here are the top 10 ways to put
some attitude in your outerwear
wardrobe this fall and winter:
The camel coat is one
of fall's top trends. Design-ers from New York to Paris pa-raded the classic color down their
runways. The camel coat has long
been a classic, and in the neutral
color, it will work with everything
in your wardrobe.
The double-breasted
coat is making a come-
back. In the menswear silhouette,
this staple is sleek and chic andpromises to last you for years to
come. Gray is a close-second fa-
vorite to camel.
The military jackets
and coats are command-
ing attention, too. Look fordetails that make these toppers
stand out: embroideries, patch
pockets, bold buttons and interest-
ing stitching.

DEAR ABBY by Abigail Van Buren
DEAR ABBY: I have been
keeping a journal for my son
since he was born 22 years
ago. I have never missed a
single day. I write about himregardless of whether I see
him or not. Sometimes I'll jot
down a verse I remembered,
or something happening in
his world or an item of news-
worthy information. I have
also written my thoughts
about his life and decisions.
My dilemma is
when I should give these
writings to him. I don't want
to keep them indefinitely be-
cause they are meant for him.
He is married and has a son
on the way. My inclination is
to give him the writings of
his life on the occasion of his
son's birth. He has no idea
I've been doing this, so it will
be a complete surprise. I'd
appreciate your input. --
BLOCKED WRITER IN
OKLAHOMA
DEAR BLOCKED
WRITER: What an amaz-
ing gift those journals will
be. However, allow me to
caution you against giving
them to your son when his
child is born. There will be a
lot going on at that time, and
you do not want to distract
from that momentous occa-
sion. My advice is to wait
until his next milestone birth-
day and present them to him
when he's 25. And because
you enjoy journaling, con-
sider starting one about your
own life then.

DEAR ABBY: I have al-
ways enjoyed Halloween. I
like seeing the chil-
dren in their cos-
tumes and, for
most of the little
ones, it isa fun and
magical
time.
In our neighbor-
hood, a group of 15 to 20
parents escort their trick-or-
treating children from door to
door. Sometimes there are 25
to 30 kids. When they ap-
proach a house for their
treats, the parents remain on
the sidewalk, apparently
oblivious to what's going on
when the door opens.
We have a small
front porch that rises about 8
inches above the sidewalk.
The kids push and shove,
jockeying for position to get
their "loot." Last year, a 5-
year-old fell off our porch.
Fortunately, she was not hurt.
The parents did not issue anydirections to their children to
take turns accepting our
candy because they were too
busy chatting among them-
selves.
Because of the in-
herent danger to unsuper-
vised children (and the
possibility of a lawsuit if
there should be an accident),
I will not be turning on my
porch light this year -- the
signal in our area that alerts
kids that the home is partici-
pating in trick-or-treat.
I hope my letter
will remind parents to prac-
tice mindfulness and make
this Sunday a Happy Hal-
loween! -- LIGHTS OUT IN
HARRISBURG
DEAR LIGHTS OUT: So
do I, and that's why I'm print-
ing your letter, which arrived
just in time for me to include
it in today's column. Lastyear your neighbors were
lucky the child who fell did-
n't break a wrist or an ankle.
Parents, when escorting your
little ghosts, goblins and
vampires, please remain vigi-
lant. Common sense must
prevail.
**
DEAR ABBY: I'm in love
with my best friend. It seems
so simple when I say it, but
when it comes to telling him,
the words never come out
right. I don't know if I should
even say anything. What if it
ruins the amazing friendship
we already have? Is it worth
risking it all? -- HESITANT
IN FLORIDA
DEAR HESITANT: Yes,
it is, so tell him how you feel.If he has feelings for you,
you'll get what you're angling
for. If he doesn't, it does not
mean your friendship must
end. It will let you know that
if you want a romantic rela-
tionship you are free to look
elsewhere. Better to know it
sooner than later.

The princess coat.Also known as a "skater"
coat, these feminine-style
coats dress up everything
from jeans to dresses. Bows,
satin seams and velvet trimsadd even more appeal.
The anorak is one
of your best bets for
a casual coat with
utility chic. Add morestyle with fur collars and
cuffs. For colder climates, the
quilted puffer coats are stylish
options, too.
The cape is an-
other versatile fall
favorite. In long or shortversions, the cape is a great
alternative to a traditional
jacket or coat. It is also a per-
fect choice when a light-
weight topper is more
appropriate for the weather.
Furry coats and
jackets, even vests aremore popular than ever this
fall and winter. Whether you
favor the real thing or prefer
to fake it, there are plenty of
ways to get cozy with fur this
season. The newest look?
Shaggy!
Classic shearling
is another option forthe fur trend. Look forthe suede-like textured coats
in edgy shapes with leather
trim on the sleeves and col-
lars.
The printed coat.If you're looking for some-
thing a little different, there
are plenty of printed coats and
jackets to put some fun into
your outerwear wardrobe this
fall. Choose from leopard ac-
cents, glen plaids, velvet bro-cades and urban camouflage.
The trench. Youcan't miss this classic. It's an
essential wardrobe item, and
it can work for day or night,
tossed over jeans or a cocktail
dress. A black satin trench is a
favorite coat in my closet. It
dresses up my denim days
and is a great look over se-quin dresses for special occa-
sions.
For any coat caper this fall,
search out the most versatile
toppers you can find. You'll
wear them for seasons to
come.

Fitness 101:Plunge IntoMarilynn Preston
If I were stranded on a desertisland, what's the one exercise
I'd do every day before fish-
ing for dinner? So glad you
asked. It's the lunge. It builds
and shapes the lower body
like nothing else, and who
doesn't want stronger legs and
a tighter butt? If you do it
correctly, it is safe and effec-
tive. Do it incorrectly,
quickly, ignoring alignment,
and your knees may suffer.That's true for all exercise, by
the way. It's why at least 50
percent of all sports injuries
are preventable.
There are many variations of
the lunge arms raised
overhead, lunges with
weights, eyes closed lunging
but I suggest you start
with this one and build from
there once you develop bal-
ance, stamina and confidence.
Throughout this entire se-
quence you should be listen-ing to the sound of your
breath, inhaling and exhaling
through your nose, if possi-
ble:
Step 1: Stand And Extend.
Stand in a relaxed, erect pos-
ture, your feet shoulder-width
apart. On the exhale, step
your right foot forward a few
feet. Adjust the distance so
the soles of your forward footand back foot are flat on the
ground.
Next, bend your front knee so
it is aligned with your front
foot, but don't let your knee
extend beyond your toes.
That's very important. Your
back leg is your anchor. Roll
up onto your toes on that leg,
and keep it steady and strong.
Balance and breathe, front
and back. Squeeze both inner
thighs and feel energy surging
through your legs, up yourspine, right into your heart
center, aiming as high as the
crown of your head.
Enjoy this pose. Settle into it
and take a few slow deliber-
ate breaths. Do it with the
kind of strength that comes
from relaxation, not struggle.
Step 2: Hands to the
Ground. On an exhale, slowlybring both hands to the
ground in front of you, on ei-
ther side of your forward
foot. Again, watch your align-
ment, and make sure your
knees don't extend beyond
your toes. If you can't com-
fortably reach the ground
with your palms or fingertips,
use yoga blocks or books on
either side.

Partnership Allows You to Sleep With SuccessMaggie Reed
While not always easy, a good
night's sleep is a necessitywhether traveling or tucking
in at home or suffering from
allergies. Dr. James B. Maas,
sleep educator and author, has
partnered with United Feather
& Down for additions to his
namesake bedding collection.
"To be a peak performer, you
need to be sharp, energetic,
alert and in a good mood, andit's not possible without qual-
ity sleep on the right bed-
ding," says Maas. "Drawing
from my research, United
Feather & Down and I have
designed what I feel to be the
most functional bedding on
the market today products
that not only help you sleep
better, but that can also in-
crease your daytime perform-
ance."
Inspired by Maas' work in the
field of sleep and perform-
ance, these bedding collec-
tions are constructed from
fabric and filled with en-
hanced features and benefits
to improve both the quality ofnighttime sleep and daytime
performance.
Each product is packaged
with a free booklet, "How to
Get Eight Hours of Sleep,"
containing sleep tips and re-
search excerpted from hisnewly published book, "Sleep
for Success! Everything You
Must Know About Sleep
But Are Too Tired To Ask."
The collections
include:
Sleep for Suc-
cess!: This bedding col-
lection features naturalTENCEL lyocell fibers in
the fabric and fills for mois-
ture management and tem-
perature regulation. Pillows
feature unique constructions
specially designed for side,
back and stomach sleep posi-
tions to improve head, neck
and spine alignment.
Sleep for Success!
Stress Ease: Therapeuticpillows for travel or the home
feature Stress Ease Hot and
Cold therapy pack and pillow
protectors for maximum relief
from stress, minor aches and
pains. Styles offered include
the Comfort Reader, an ad-
justable lower back support
pillow, a travel pillow that
converts to a quilted pillow
protector to fit over hotel pil-
lows, a neck support pillow
and a body pillow.
Allergy Relief:These bedding products fea-
ture United Feather & Down's
proprietary SilverFill down-
alternative fill made with pure
silver fibers to provide natu-
ral, safe and chemical-free an-
tibacterial protection andallergy relief from the inside
out.
"We're pleased to expand our
partnership with Dr. Maas, of-
fering even more products
that will help Americans get
the quality of sleep they de-
serve," says Bob Hickman,
vice president of sales and
marketing for United Feather& Down. "We know that
nearly half of Americans are
chronically sleep-deprived. If
we can help part of that group
get a better night's sleep,
we're thrilled."
Maas has been working on an
informal basis with United
Feather & Down for over 10
years. Several years ago, he
looked to the company to de-velop a toddler pillow to ac-
company his children's sleep
book, "Remmy and the Brain
Train."
As professor of psychology at
Cornell University, Maas
teaches the nation's largest
single lecture class to more
than 1,300 students each year.
He is also a sought-after cor-
porate speaker to groups look-ing to improve performance
through better sleep.

owned manufacturer and mar-
keter of innovative bedding
products for the consumer and

Sustainable Living
Shawn Dell Joyce
With stocks plummeting,
home heating prices soaring
and money tight, many peo-
ple looks toward winter with
fear and trepidation. One of
the best ways to alleviate this
fear is to take a positive ac-
tion like having a home en-
ergy audit.
Almost half of our energy use
goes into heating and cooling
our homes. We are already
paying an average of 20 per-
cent higher home heating
costs, so any way you can re-
duce your costs will pay for
it. A professional home en-
ergy audit costs $100-$300,but if you take their recom-
mendations, you will quickly
make that money back.
Some states, like New York,
will reimburse you for the
cost of the audit, and make
you eligible for a low interest
rate loan (2 percent) to pay
for major renovations. If you
take out the loan and make
the improvements, the moneyyou save on your electric bill
easily covers the loan pay-
ment, often with plenty left
over. If you plan to go solar,
or incorporate some form of
renewable energy into your
home, the same program will
pay for half the installed cost
(www.getenergysmart).
Having a trained eye look at
your home is invaluable. My
auditor spotted right away
that my furnace was operating
at 80 percent efficiency in
spite of just being serviced.
He also found some leaky and
uninsulated ductwork that we
never noticed.
The blower door is a tool that
auditors use to test your
home's envelope. They installa powerful fan that fits ex-
actly into an open outer door.
The air is sucked out of your
house causing negative air
pressure. The auditor walks
around with a hand held
smoke machine and points
out the major gaps and leaks,usually around doors and
window frames. If added to-
gether, all these gaps and
leaks can equal a huge hole in
your wall.
Here are a few ways my
home energy audit saved us
money and reduced our en-
ergy use:
Just by caulking all the
gaps and leaks, we could save
almost $1,000 off our annual
heating and cooling bills.
Even if we hired a contractor
to do this and had to pay
$4,500 for caulking, we
would make that investment
back in under five years. You
can't get a rate of return that
good on the stock market
right now.
One of the most obvious
leaks in any home is an unin-
sulated attic and basement.
We were losing much of our
heat right though the roof of
our house. A modest invest-
ment of about $1,500 added 6more inches of insulation in
our attic and made a consider-
able difference in how warm
the house feels, and how
much energy we use to heat
it. We reinsulated many of our
outside walls at the same
time, and were able to cut our
home heating costs dramati-
cally last year.
If you have an unisulated
basement, insulating exposed
crawlspace ceilings and walls
could save you as much as
$800 annually, depending on
the size of your house. Again,
if you paid someone to do it,
you would make a return on
your investment in under five
years.
Switching out your incan-descent light bulbs for com-
pact fluorescent or LED lights
can save you an immediate 20
percent off your electric bill.

An energy audit can show you ways to save money and easily
pay for itself.

Step 3: Expand Across Your Chest. Once
you feel stable back leg energized, front
knee bent at a 90-degree angle, balancing
lightly on both hands gently lift your chest
and feel your heart open to the sky, even just afraction. That will help stretch the front of
your body, across your sternum. To enhance
the stretch, create a visualization. I like to
imagine a kite opening to the wind.
Step 4: Inflate Across Your Back. Keep
your chest lifted and your heart open, and
focus on your shoulder blades (clue: you'll
find them on your back). Create space between
your shoulder blades, stretching broadly across
your upper back.
To expand across your lower back, form a
mental picture of where your kidneys are
one anatomical drawing is worth a thousand
words and exhale into them, right and left,
blowing them up as though you were inflating
balloons.
Step 6: Straighten Your Bent Knee. Now for
the real fun. Exhale, and in one motion, gently
straighten your front leg and bring your hands
up so they can rest on your hips. Keep your
balance, and maintain your breath. If you wob-
ble or fall out of the lunge, so be it. Laugh it
off, and start over.
Once you're stable, lift and expand your chest
and open your heart once again as you feel the
action in your legs and torso, front and back.
Your hips should be balanced not tilted
right or left and facing forward, like two
headlamps on a car. To help your balance,
focus lightly on one specific point at eye level.
Smiling helps, too. Listen to the sound of your
breath to keep your mind from straying.
Step 8: Return and Repeat. After three to
five breaths, slowly return to the starting pos-
ture. Don't hurry. Move slowly and mindfully.
Coming out of a lunge is just as important as
going into it. Repeat this entire bend-and-
straighten sequence several times before
switching to the other leg.
The details of how-to-lunge apply to all your
exercises. Be conscious, don't judge, listen to
your breath, and follow the flow of your en-
ergy. You'll never be bored.

The more bulbs you replace, the greater your
savings.
About 14 percent of our home energy use is
spent on keeping water hot at all times. Buying
an on-demand water heater will save you the
cost of that new water heater in about 2-3
years.
Appliances and cooking can account for 33
percent of our home energy use. If you replace
older appliances with Energy Star Rated appli-
ances, you can save about $100 per year, per
appliance on average. This savings help to off-set the cost of the new appliance over the years.
Replacing windows can be expensive, mak-
ing the payback period much longer. In my
case, we would save $30-$50 annually with a
payback period of 10 years. We opted instead to
invest in window inserts to use during the win-
ter. An immediate action you can take is to
cover every window with clear plastic window
sheeting from your local hardware store. It
curbs heat transfer and will save you energy.
To find a qualified energy auditor near you, go
to www.energystar.gov and click the "partners"
tab. You can look up a home energy rater by
state.
If you can't find an auditor, do-it-yourself by
gathering last year's utility bills and using the

REVIEW RATING: 4.5 stars

I lost interest in the Castleva-
nia series when it's outdated,
side-scrolling game play
made a home on the Nin-
tendo DS. Imagine how sur-
prised I was to find out that
the latest incarnation, titled
"Castlevania: Lords of
Shadow," is a modern 3-D
game with combat similar to
"God of War." I'm sure that
some fans aren't too thrilled,
but I consider this to be the
best Castlevania game to
date!
During the end of days, the
malevolent Lords of Shadow
threaten Earth's alliance with
the heavens. Without holy
protection, the world is over-
run by hordes of evil crea-
tures that thrive on the
suffering of humans. Out of
the shadows steps a member
of the Brotherhood of Light
named Gabriel Belmont, who
is sworn to protect the inno-cent. Only with the help of
his wife's spirit can Gabriel
hope to bring righteousness
back to this downtrodden
planet.
Right from the beginning,
players will notice the high
production values used in this
game. Backgrounds are visu-
ally stunning and the combat
looks awesome! In addition,
the voice acting is top notch.
Any game that uses Patrick
Stewart to voice a main char-
acter definitely earns my re-
spect.
Fighting enemies is the high-
light of this title as Gabriel
uses his holy cross like a
chain sword to hit enemies
from afar and toss them
through the air! Numerous
combos are available to pur-
chase that offer great variety
in combat. For example,
players can spin their weapon
like a chainsaw or jump inthe air and yank enemies up
to deal additional damage.
Even more fun is produced
through the use of light and
shadow magic to enhance
Gabriel's combat. Activating
light magic heals Gabriel
with every successful strike,
while shadow magic deals
additional damage. There are
also multiple secondary
weapons available including:
daggers, fairies and holy
water.

'Enslaved: Odyssey
to the West' is More
Movie Than Game

REVIEW RATING: 3.5 stars
(out of 5)
It seems like video games are
becoming more like movies
each year, thereby blurring
the line that separates them.
Some games, like Namco
Bandai's "Enslaved: Odyssey
to the West," mimic every-
thing from action movie se-
quences to epic storylines.
Unfortunately, this title goes a
bit too far by streamlining the
whole experience to a point
where it's more fun to watch
than it is to play.
Set 150 years in the future,
this game takes place in a
post-apocalyptic world ruined
by war and ecological disas-
ter. Through a stroke of luck,
a grumpy muscular human
named Monkey escapes a gi-
gantic slave ship with an un-
known technically savvy
companion called Trip. To-
gether, they might have achance of surviving the ro-
botic horrors that stand be-
tween them and freedom!
Monkey is the main character
players control as they fight
nasty robots and skulk
through the countryside. He
may be agile, but he's not the
type to monkey around. For-
tunately, his mighty staff can
lay the smack down on just
about any enemy he encoun-
ters. There's even a handy
stun move that temporarily
incapacitates enemies so
players don't get over-
whelmed.
Red orbs collected from
fallen enemies can be used to
upgrade Monkey's abilities,
but overall this system is
rather limited. Sure players
can increase their health
gauge, upgrade their shield
and gain new attacks, but the
customization seems more
like an afterthought than an
in-depth feature.
My main problem is that it
seems like the developers areholding my hand throughout
the entire experience. Combat
is so easy that I suggest
everyone play the game on
hard the first time through.
Climbing and swinging
around is simplistic to the
point that players could do it
blindfolded. Just press the
same button over and over for
instant success.
"Enslaved: Odyssey to the
West" has a great storyline
and beautiful environments,
but it's not even remotely
challenging.

When the weather
turns colder and houses close
up for warmth, every little
thing starts to annoy us. Like
the smell of the litter box, or
(worse) the smell of a cat
whos not using the litter box
at all.
But dont blame the cat.
If your cat is hit-or-miss where the litter box is
concerned, chances are the
choices youve made factor
into the problem. After all,
your cat really isnt asking for
anything more than you
would when it comes to a
bathroom. All thats required
for most cats is that the litter
box be clean, quiet and offer
no surprises.
That sounds simple,
but the failure to use a litter
box is the top behavior com-
plaint of cat lovers, sending
countless cats to shelters
every year. Before you even
consider such a drastic step,you need to try to work things
out with your cat if you have
a litter box problem.
The first step in
solving such a problem is to
make sure its not a medical
condition and that means a
trip to your veterinarian for a
complete workup. Urinary-
tract infections and diseases
such as diabetes make consis-
tent litter box use impossible
for even the most well-inten-
tioned cat. You cannot hope to
get your cat using the box
again until any health issues
have been resolved.
If your cat checksout fine, you need to make
sure that everything about the
box is to your cats liking.
Thesecond
rule of
solving a
litter box
problem: If
the cat isnt
happy, no one
will be happy.
Heres what to
look for:
Cleanli-
ness. Cats are fas-tidious animals,
and if the litter
box is dirty, they
look elsewhere for a place to
go. Clean the box frequently
twice a day at least and
make sure its completely
scrubbed clean and aired out
on a weekly basis. Having an
additional litter box may help,
too. (Multiple litter boxes are
recommended for multicathouseholds, since many cats
simply will not share.)
Box type and
filler. Many choices people
make to suit their own tastes
conflict with the cats sense of
whats agreeable. A covered
box may seem more pleasing
to you, but your cat may think
its pretty rank inside, or
scary. Likewise, scented lit-
ters may make you think the
box smells fine, but your cat
may disagree not only is
the box dirty, he reasons, but
it also has this extra clean
odor he cant abide. Start with
the basics: a large box with
unscented clumping-style lit-
ter.
Location. Your
cats box should be away
from his food and water, in aplace he can get to easily and
feel safe in. Consider a loca-
tion from a cats point of
view: Choose a quiet spot
where he can see whats com-
ing at him. A cat doesnt want
any surprises while hes in the
box.
Make the area
where your cat has had mis-
takes less attractive by clean-
ing it thoroughly with a
pet-odor neutralizer (availablefrom pet-supply retailers).
Discourage re-use by cover-
ing the area with foil, plastic
sheeting or plastic carpet run-
ners with the points up.
If changing things
around doesnt clear up the
problem in a healthy cat, you
may need to retrain him by
keeping your pet in a small
area, such as a guest bath-
room, for a couple of weeks.Make sure the area
you choose has no good op-
tions besides the litter box
no carpet, no pile of dirty
laundry. Block off the bathtub
or keep an inch of water in it
to discourage its use as a
place to go. After your cat is
reliably using the litter box,
let him slowly expand his ter-
ritory again. As long as youkeep up your end of the bar-
gain and keep the litter box
clean and safe, you have a
good chance the good behav-
ior will become permanent.
If you just cant
seem to get the problem re-
solved, ask your veterinarian
for a referral to a veterinary
behaviorist. These veterinari-
ans are skilled in behavioral
problem-solving and are ableto prescribe medications that
may make the difference dur-
ing the retraining period.

SUZANNE SOMER'S:
BREAKTHROUGH7:30 Thursday November
4th ONLY!
George Varga
With its first new
studio album in three years
having debuted at No. 2 on
the Billboard national sales
charts, Maroon 5 is poised to
reclaim its position of promi-
nence in pop music. Yet,
while lead singer Adam
Levine remains this Los An-geles band's focal point, on
stage and on record, he is
doing all he can to avoid
being in the media spotlight
when not performing on the
band's current Palm Trees
and Power Lines tour.
"That is absolutely deliber-
ate," said Levine, who only a
few years ago was a main-
stay in celebrity magazinesand on such scandal-fueled
websites as TMZ. "That was
never a goal of mine. I've
never been interested in
being that kind of person. ...
I never wanted to be in all
those stupid magazines."
Asked how he is avoiding
the media glare, Levine
quipped "Disguises and
jet-packs!" then grewmore serious. "I just re-
treated a little, because I did-
n't want to mess up our
career," he said. "So I scaled
back and decided not to be in
places I shouldn't be. I never
wanted to think about it or
have it be part of my
life,
but I had to. Being famous is
just a very unnatural thing."
That may be why Maroon 5's
new album, the dozen-song
"Hands All Over," ignores
fame to focus on love lost,
won and imagined. Speaking
from San Francisco, Levine
predicted the band will in-
clude three or four songsfrom "Hands" when it per-
forms on tour.
"Misery," the album's first
single, is already a hit. Not
coincidentally, virtually
every other track on "Hands"
also boasts hit-single poten-
tial. Credit for that goes to
the band's listener-friendly
brand of blue-eyed soul and
the slick, sleek, impeccablypolished aural sheen pro-
vided by superstar producer
Robert John "Mutt" Lange
(best known for his work
with his estranged wife, Sha-
nia Twain, and with the
bands Def Leppard and
AC/DC).
"He's a really fascinating
guy and he definitely pushed
us harder than we've everbeen pushed," Levine said of
Lange, who recorded Ma-
roon 5 at his lakeside studio
in Switzerland. "He (was)
amazing to work with."
Make that amazing
and challenging.
Lange, who has also collabo-
rated with everyone from
The Cars and Bryan Adams
to such defunct English cult
acts as XTC and the late
Kevin Coyne is a notorious
taskmaster. After working at
length with Def Leppard on
the band's 10 million-selling1982 breakthrough album,
"Pyromania," he and the
group spent six years craft-
ing its follow-up release, the
14 million-selling "Hyste-
ria."
When it came to working
with Maroon 5, Lange didn't
require nearly as much time
but was no less exacting in
the studio.
"It wasn't a completely dif-
ferent process from making
our previous albums, but
more a matter of him getting
the most out of us by really
pushing us," Levine said.
"He was unafraid to tell us if
something wasn't as good as
it could have been. People
we've worked with in the
past tended to walk on eggshells with us, but he was se-
rious about telling us exactly
how he felt."
Did this lead to any ruffled
feelings for Ma-
roon 5, whose
other members
include guitarist
James Valen-
tine, key-
boardist Jesse
Carmichael,
bassist
Mickey Mad-
den and for-
mer
B-
52s/Gavin
DeGraw
drummer
Matt
Flynn?
"No,
none whatsoever,"
Levine replied.

"We embraced it. We thought
it was a good thing, being
criticized while we made themusic. Not everything we do
is amazing or effortless, and
that's where he came in. We'd
work again with Mutt in a
heartbeat."
Levine spoke with enthusi-
asm about making the band's
new album in Switzerland,
with Lake Geneva and the
Alps providing an especially
inspiring setting for making
music. But don't expect Ma-
roon 5 to be relocating to
Switzerland anytime soon.
"It's too expensive!" Levine
said. "You have to be the
owner of Nestle or a Russian
oligarch to afford to livethere. But it was good for us
to be out of our comfort zone
when we made the album.
And it helped the music."
That music has made Maroon
5's members wealthy, while
also leading to barbs from
critics that the band's music
is too safe, calculated and, as
the Village Voice put it a few
years ago, "clearly designed
solely for 14-year-old girls."
What is also clear, however,
is that Maroon 5 is the rare
group that not only doesn't
shy away from being called a
pop act, but embraces that
designation wholeheartedly.
"You're right, pop music has
never been a bad word to any
of us," Levine said. "We'll
continue to embrace it, con-
tinue to do it, unapologeti-
cally, and just continue on.
There is a lot of 'catchiness'
and 'pop-iness' in a lot of our
songs, but we've worked re-
ally hard on every single one
of them. We don't overlook
anything."
