Mr. Nez has a wonderful book, "Code Talker: The First and Only Memoir by one of the Original Navajo Code Talkers of WWII." Written with Judith Schiess Avila. Really neat. Wish I knew how to get an autograph on a Kindle book!

Classifieds section omitted from Saturday's paper, will be included in Sunday's edition
Sorry if this is duplicated. We were scrambling and trying to do what we could to get the message out. No excuses. We screwed up. We're embarrassed. We will learn from the criticisms and appreciate the constructive responses. And we certainly hope we don't have to resort to "breaking news" anytime soon.

Classifieds section omitted from Saturday's paper, will be included in Sunday's edition
We were scrambling, doing the best we could at the time with the resources we had. No excuse. We fell short of our own and others' expectations on many fronts. We certainly will learn from your reaction (although we hope we don't have any similar situation anytime soon.) Thanks!
