Two bodies found off N.M. 14 Sheriff’s office: Pair in car sustained gunshot wounds By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the suspicious deaths of a young man and woman whose bodies were found with apparent gunshot wounds early Saturday

morning in a car parked in a neighborhood off N.M. 14. The discovery of the bodies has baffled residents in the small neighborhood, which is usually quiet, they said. Santa Fe County sheriff’s Capt. Adan Mendoza said neighbors called dispatch at 8 a.m. to report a vehicle

New Mexico State Police officers arrived to investigate the scene Saturday afternoon, but later Saturday evening, the victims still had not been identified, and officials had just obtained a warrant to search the vehicle and to examine the bodies.

World Heritage Site’s future on the line as oil, gas producers close in on Chaco

Drilling threatens treasured canyon

The hostages were taken out of their cell one by one. In a private room, their captors asked each of them three intimate questions, a standard technique used to obtain proof that a prisoner is still alive in a kidnapping negotiation. James Foley returned to the cell he shared with nearly two dozen other Western hostages and collapsed in tears of joy. The questions his kidnappers had asked were so personal (“Who cried at your brother’s wedding?” “Who was the captain of your high school soccer team?”) that he knew they were in touch with his family. It was December 2013, and more than a year had passed since Foley vanished on a road in northern Syria. Finally, his

thousand years ago, Chaco Canyon in northwestern New Mexico was the center of a thriving culture. Massive multistory buildings called great houses rose against a dramatic high desert landscape of mountains and mesas. Chaco was the ceremonial and economic center of the San Juan Basin with some 400 miles of prehistoric roads linking it to other great houses in the region. In some ways, it still looks like it did centuries ago. “Right now, you can stand at Pueblo Alto, look north and see a landscape that is substantially the same as what the Chacoans saw,” said Barbara West, former superintendent of the Chaco Culture National Historical Park. But that could be changing. Chaco, a World Heritage Site, is surrounded by one of the most productive oil and gas basins in the United States. In 2012, San Juan County ranked No. 1 in natural gas production and fifth in oil production in the state. And now new drilling technology is making the region, once thought to be played out, attractive to oil and gas companies. Thousands of new wells are possible, some close to land that is sacred to Navajos and Pueblo Indians of Northern New Mexico.

Group accuses country of crimes against humanity The New York Times

UNITED NATIONS — Seven months after a groundbreaking report documenting how North Korea tortured and starved its citizens, a broad coalition of countries is pushing for the first time to refer Pyongyang to the International Criminal Court for prosecution of crimes against humanity. Japan and the European Union circulated a draft resolution last week among United Nations member states that encourages the Security Council to refer North Korea to the tribunal in The Hague; 43 countries have so far signed on in support. The move builds on Secretary of State John Kerry’s bid last month to raise the profile of rights violations in North Korea by hosting an unusual session devoted to the issue on the sidelines of the General Assembly’s annual conclave. On Wednesday, the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Samantha Power, furthered that effort by presenting an award to the chief author of the landmark report, Michael D. Kirby, a retired Australian judge. The efforts are a breakthrough for human rights advocates who have long urged world powers to scrutinize reported rights abuses in North Korea, and not just focus on its nuclear arms. The momentum has built since the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva called last March for accountability after reviewing Kirby’s harrowing report, compiled after interviews with 240 victims and witnesses who had escaped. The report did not allege genocide, but said there had been crimes of “extermination” committed, as well as murder, enslavement, torture and rape. The testimony included allegations that pregnant women in the gulags were sometimes so badly beaten that they miscarried and that one woman had been forced to drown her baby. Unlike previous resolutions to punish North Korea, the one being circulated includes the language on the International Criminal Court and is likely to come up for a vote in the human rights committee in November. It would need a majority of votes in the 193-member General Assembly after that.

Mexico opens up to new terms beyond ‘negro’ Survey to ask residents about African descent, black identity By Randal C. Archibold The New York Times

JOSÉ MARÍA MORELOS, Mexico ernán Reyes calls himself “negro” — black — plain and simple. After some thought, Elda Mayren decides she is “Afromexicana,” or African-Mexican. Candido Escuen, a 58-year-old papaya farmer, is not quite sure what word to use, but he knows he is not mestizo, or mixed white and native Indian, which is how most Mexicans describe themselves. “Prieto,” or dark, “is what a lot of people call me,” he said. This isolated village is named for an independence hero, thought to have had black ancestors, who helped abolish slavery in Mexico. It lies in the rugged hills of southwestern Mexico, among a smattering of towns and hamlets that have long embraced a heritage from African slaves who were brought here to work in mines and on sugar plantations in the 16th century. Just how many people are willing to share that pride may soon be put to the test as Mexico moves to do something it has not attempted in decades and never on its modern census: ask people if they consider themselves black. Or Afromexican. Or “moreno,” “mascogo,” “jarocho,” or “costeño” — some of the other terms sometimes used to describe black Mexicans. What term or terms to use is not just a matter of personal and societal debate, but a longstanding dilemma that the government is hoping finally to resolve. An official survey of around 4,500 households this month asked about African descent and preferred terms as part of plans to include the question on a national housing and population survey of 6.1 million households next year, a broad snapshot of the country in between the main censuses. It has not yet been decided if the question will be on the full census in 2020. The sample next year would allow for a rare, official estimate of the total black population in Mexico — a number that until now has been the subject of educated guesses of tens of thousands. “It is a big, important move,” said Sagrario Cruz-Carretero, an anthropologist at the University of Veracruz who studies Mexico’s African descendants and has participated in meetings

with the census agency, known as INEGI for its initials in Spanish, to push for the move. “The black population has been invisible.” That Mexico is even considering asking about black identity represents a leap in a country where race is rarely discussed publicly, and where bigotry and discrimination, both blatant and indirect, is commonplace. It was only last November that Mexico’s largest bakery, Bimbo, undergoing an international expansion, abandoned the name of its popular chocolate cake bar, “Negrito,” or little black one. The cartoon boy with the big Afro remains on the package, although he has also evolved over the years from a dark-skinned, cannibal-like figure to a light-complexioned skater dude. A casting call last year seeking models for a television commercial for Aeroméxico, the nation’s largest airline, asked for “nobody dark skinned,” conforming to the overwhelmingly white complexions portrayed across the media here. The airline and the advertising agency later apologized. When it comes to official classifications of race and ethnicity, the census has typically asked only if an indigenous language is spoken at home and, if so, which one. That information has been used to evaluate the size of the Indian population (about 6 percent of the total of 112.3 million). Although Mexico’s indigenous peoples persistently rank at the bottom of the socioeconomic ladder, the country takes pride in its indigenous heritage and carefully preserves the remnants of ancient civilizations. But African-Mexicans say their role as Mexico’s “third root” is ignored in textbooks and by society as a whole. They are seeking the census count as a prelude to official recognition in the constitution, which could mean deeper study and commemoration of their history and better services for their communities. The coalition of scholars, community groups and activists that has been pushing for the census question has gained traction for a number of reasons: renewed attention to non-Spanish cultures after a 1994 indigenous uprising in the southern state of Chiapas; a civil society grown more vociferous since the first democratic handover of the presidency after the 2000 election; and a sense that Mexico was falling behind in international agreements it had signed over the years to confront racial discrimination. Mexico has increasingly looked out of step with other Latin American nations, including Brazil, Argentina and Colombia, that have included questions of race on their census forms.

Ukraine pauses before decisive parliamentary vote MARIUPOL, Ukraine — Ukraine braced for decisive parliamentary elections Saturday against the backdrop of unrest in eastern regions roiled by conflict between government troops and pro-Russian separatist forces. Campaigning material was being taken down across the country in line with election laws ahead of a vote Sunday that pollsters say will be dominated by President Petro Poroshenko’s party. Parliament is seen changing composition completely with the former ruling party of ex-President Viktor Yanukovych, who was ousted by a street revolt in February, set to disappear from the legislature. Speaking in a televised address Saturday, Poroshenko said the election would lead to a “full reset of power” and enable the formation of a reform-minded legislature. “It is very difficult to press on the gas pedal with reforms when hundreds of deputies are simultaneously and in a coordinated fashion slamming the brakes,” he said.

Number of Rohingya fleeing Myanmar tops 100,000 YANGON, Myanmar — A growing sense of desperation is fueling a mass exodus of Rohingya Muslims from western Myanmar, with the number who have fled by boat since communal violence broke out two years ago now topping 100,000, a leading expert said Saturday. Chris Lewa, director of the nonprofit advocacy group Arakan Project, said there has been a huge surge since Oct. 15, with an average of 900 people per day piling into cargo ships parked off Rakhine state. That’s nearly 10,000 in less than two weeks, she noted, one of the biggest spikes yet. Myanmar, a predominantly Buddhist nation of 50 million that only recently emerged from half a century of military rule, has an estimated 1.3 million Rohingya. Though many of their families arrived from neighboring Bangladesh generations ago, almost all have been denied citizenship. In the last two years, attacks by Buddhist mobs have left hundreds dead and 140,000 trapped in camps, where they live without access to adequate health care, education or jobs. Lewa, who has teams monitoring embarkation points, is considered the leading authority on the number of fleeing Rohingya. But boats are now shoving off from more and more places, she said, and it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep track of how many are leaving. “The real number may be higher,” Lewa said. She said some Rohingya families have received phone calls notifying them that ships from the latest exodus have started arriving in neighboring Thailand, where passengers often are brought to jungle camps, facing extortion and beatings until relatives come up with enough money to win their release.

Brazil’s election: ‘Ghosts’ versus ‘Monsters’ RIO DE JANEIRO — Brazilian voters electing a new president Sunday are being asked to decide what scares them least: the incumbent’s warnings about the “ghosts of the past,” or her challenger’s charges about the “monsters of the present.” The latest polls either gave left-leaning incumbent Dilma Rousseff a slight edge or saw a dead heat for the runoff election to choose the leader of the world’s fifthlargest nation. For that reason, few are counting out center-right challenger Aecio Neves after a topsy-turvy campaign that has been the most competitive, divisive and dramatic since Brazil’s return to democracy in 1985. “The country is divided in two, with half feeling that social inclusion and protections are what matter most, and the other half believing that macroeconomic stability is more important,” said Carlos Pereira, a political analyst at the Gertulio Vargas Foundation, Brazil’s leading think tank. “The candidate who convinces voters he or she is best prepared to combine these two beliefs and make them complementary will win Sunday’s election.” The campaigns hit fever pitch in the three weeks since, with the Workers’ Party that’s been in power for 12 years and Neves’ Social Democracy Party that last held the presidency in 1995-2003 battling it out with no shortage of verbal jabs and nasty allegations.

Iran hangs woman for killing alleged rapist

Islamic State group renews attacks Extremists fire mortar shells into Syrian border town By Elena Becatoros The Associated Press

MURSITPINAR, Turkey — Fighters from the Islamic State group launched Saturday a new offensive on the northern Syrian town of Kobani after shelling the area from their positions nearby, activists and a Kurdish official said. Heavy fighting took place in Kobani Saturday afternoon and many mortar shells were fired into the town. Machine-gun fire could be clearly heard from inside the town where black smoke was billowing. The U.S. Central Command said an airstrike destroyed an Islamice State group artillery piece near Kobani. In the afternoon, warplanes of the U.S.-led coalition could be heard flying over Kobani. Idriss Nassan, a senior official in Kobani, said the fighting concentrated on the southern and

eastern edges of the town, also known as Ayn Arab. “They think they can enter the city and these are just dreams,” Nassan told The Associated Press by telephone adding that Islamice State fighters have not been able to take Kobani despite more than a month of attacks.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the fighting concentrated on the eastern side of the town, surrounded on three sides by Islamic State fighters. It added that Islamice State fighters were spreading news in areas under their control that they will take Kobani soon.

The Islamice State group launched its offensive on Kobani in mid-September and captured dozens of villages before entering parts of the town. The fighting has forced 200,000 people to flee to neighboring Turkey from the fighting. Earlier this week, the U.S. Central Command said its forces conducted more than 135 airstrikes against the militants in and around Kobani, killing hundreds of Islamic State fighters. The Observatory and Aleppobased activist Ahamd al-Ahmad said that the area near the northern village of Handarat witnessed intense clashes between Syrian rebels and government forces. Government forces are trying to cut a main road linking rebelheld neighborhoods of Aleppo, Syria’s largest city, with those in the countryside, Al-Ahmad said. The Observatory said the fighting near Handarat has left 15 soldiers and pro-government gunmen dead as well as 12 opposition fighters since the early hours of Saturday.

Canyon: BLM plan to determine what area will look like Continued from Page A-1 Some like West worry that the experience of visiting the remote ruin of the center of the ancestral Puebloan world will be diminished by the sight of oil and gas rigs, flare stacks and tanker trucks kicking up clouds of dust on the long dirt road leading to the awe-inspiring national park. Because of such concerns, the All Pueblo Council of Governors passed a resolution in April asking to be consulted on all management plans affecting its cultural properties. Jemez Pueblo Gov. Joshua Madalena, whose ancestors helped develop Chaco, said recently, “We have sacred sites and places out there. We want to continue to keep them private. These are places of worship. It’s like our church. This is where we go and pray in our Native culture as we have done from time immemorial.” Harry Walters, a Navajo anthropologist who still teaches part time at San Juan College, also feels uncomfortable about anything that disturbs the landscape, including oil and gas development in the area. He said new archaeological evidence suggests Navajo and ancestral Puebloans lived side by side and that Navajos believe the air their ancestors breathed is still out there. “We say they are still there. When you tamper with these [things], there are grave consequences,” Walters said. And Chaco figures in his culture’s ceremonial stories, like the one involving the great gambler who enslaved the Chacoan people until his brother risked everything to free them. “People who passed on, their spirits are still there, in the land, the water, the sunlight. When we go there, we go with great reverence and caution,” he said. Environmentalists warn new development could also contaminate groundwater, pollute Chaco’s dark skies and remote landscape, and even lead to higher crime rates and increases in domestic violence.

‘It should be done properly’ Nowhere is the threat to Chaco more evident than from the air. Earlier this month, Bruce Gordon, president of EcoFlight, an organization that advocates for the environment using small planes, flew over the area oil and gas companies are eyeing for the future. The tour was organized by the Partnership for Responsible Business, an educational arm of the New Mexico Green Chamber of Commerce, which works to promote businesses that protect our air, land and water. After taking off from the Farmington airport in a Cessna 210, he first headed east over the circular fields where the Navajo Agricultural Products Industry grows Navajo Pride brand potatoes, corn, alfalfa, beans and small grains, such as barley, wheat and oats. The plane then soared south through a cloudless sky over a landscape of mesas and washes dotted with wells and a spider web of roads, many of them leading to a single well pad. Gordon pointed out ruins of some outlying great houses and then dipped a wing over Pueblo Bonito, the largest structure in the Chacoan system, located at the north end of the canyon. Occupied from the mid-800s to the 1200s, it was four stories high with over 600 rooms and 40 kivas. “This area is relatively unexploited,” but eventually there could be oil and gas rigs within five or 10 miles of the historic sites, he said. Already in the area outside Aztec, and in Wyoming and Colorado, “I can’t fly 30 minutes in any direction without seeing wells and the industrialization of the land.” According to Gordon, environmental

12,000 active wells, 15,000 miles of roads EcoFlight and another dozen or so environmental organizations are raising concerns now because the Bureau of Land Management’s Farmington Field Office is in the process of writing a resource management plan amendment that will determine what this area looks like in the future. The office of the BLM manages federal lands in northwestern New Mexico stretching from the Colorado border to south of N.M. 550, east to Cuba and west to the Arizona line. The area also includes state and tribal lands and Indian allotments. And the federal agency oversees everything from grazing to recreation and wildlife as well as energy and minerals. According to The Wilderness Society, 94 percent of the BLM’s mineral acres in the Farmington area are currently being leased; Gary Torres, the field manager for the Farmington Field Office, says the number is 85 percent. Many of these leases have been held by production since the 1950s and ’60s. (A company can continue to hold a lease as long as its well is producing and it is paying royalties.) Torres said there are now about 16,000 active wells in the area, down from about 25,000 to 30,000. And the landscape is crossed by some 15,000 miles of roads, according to the New Mexico Green Chamber of Commerce.

Drilling generates about a half-billion dollars in annual royalties, revenue that is shared between the state and the U.S. government. Prices are good for oil now, but not so much for dry gas. Now game-changing technologies developed in recent years are making it cost-effective to extract hydrocarbons in places previously passed over in the Mancos Gallup Shale Play along the N.M. 550 corridor. The area around Lybrook and Counselor is booming. WPX Energy and LOGOS Resources announced plans earlier this year to invest a total of $260 million in oil and gas production in the basin. Encana, a Canadian company that is another big player in the San Juan Basin, has 176,000 acres under lease and plans to drill 45 to 50 net wells this year at a cost of between $300 million and $350 million. In 2013, it paid $6 million in severance taxes and this year will pay more, said Doug Hock, media relations director. “This is one of our key areas of operation. Undoubtedly, we’ll have further capital to spend next year,” he said. “It wasn’t as if they didn’t know hydrocarbons were there, but they didn’t know how to get them out of the ground,” Torres said. Both hydraulic fracturing, a process in which millions of gallons of water, sand and toxic chemicals are pumped underground to break apart the rock and release the gas, and horizontal drilling — over distances up to a mile — are much more effective in extracting the minerals. Though widely debated and often decried, they do have some benefits, Torres said. Horizontal drilling, for example,

allows companies to drill 20 wells from one well pad, which can help avoid damaging sensitive resources, Torres said. One BLM study, he said, showed that the new technology reduced impacts on the surface by 10 percent and increased recovery of minerals by 10 times.

Amending the resource management plan The Farmington Field Office, which has deferred some leases in the area, is now preparing an amendment to its 2003 resource management plan to address problems unforeseen a decade ago. The BLM’s 4.2 million-acre planning area includes federal, state and private lands as well as Indian reservations within portions of San Juan, Rio Arriba, McKinley and Sandoval counties. The decision area includes 1.3 million acres of BLM-managed surface plus 1 million acres of federal mineral estate beneath lands owned or managed by private owners, the state or other federal agencies. The 34,000 acres of Chaco Culture National Historical Park are already protected and off-limits to drilling. A scoping period during which the public could voice its concerns about resource management concluded at the end of May. The office is now in what it calls the “alternative development stage,” during which a 20-member interdisciplinary team that includes biologists, botanists, engineers, recreation officials, visual resource managers, among others, is looking at ways to address the issues raised by the public. That process started about a month ago.

organizations like his are trying to get out in front of the issue by educating people about what is at stake. “Nobody is against oil and gas, but it should be done properly,” he said.

“We talked about the big picture in 2003, but this is like we need to do our homework and make sure we are doing the right thing,” Torres said. By next summer, he said, the office hopes to have a draft environmental impact statement, which will analyze the alternatives. The public will have another opportunity to comment at that time. After reviewing the comments, the office will issue a determination. Once it signs a “record of decision,” that action will finalize the resource management plan amendment. Many of those concerned about the new development had asked the BLM to also produce a master leasing plan, but Torres said the area did not meet the technical criteria because, for one thing, the federal government did not own the majority of land in the planning area. However, he said, the environmental impact statement will consider “all the same issues that the master leasing plan identifies.” Several of the major players contacted about their business plans in the area did not return calls seeking comment.

Adverse impact The Western Environmental Law Center, along with eight other groups, filed 105 pages of scoping comments on the resource plan amendment in May raising concerns about a new boom. Although oil companies have repeatedly assured the public that the new technology is safe, the document cites numerous examples of harm it has wrought on the environment and human health.

Canyon: Site’s culture is worth preserving, many say Continued from Page A-4 Fracking, for example, caused methane contamination of drinking water and a explosion at a home in Brainbridge Township, Ohio. A fracturing fluid spill in Acorn Fork Creek in Kentucky resulted in a fish kill. Fracking resulted in groundwater contamination in Pavillion, Wyo., according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The scoping comments by the environmental groups also cited numerous cases in which it was believed that fracking triggered seismic activity, including a 2011 preliminary report by the U.S.Geological Survey linking fracking fluid injection to a series of earthquakes in Oklahoma. The scoping comments cited a 2011 congressional report saying energy companies have injected more than 30 million gallons of diesel fuel or diesel mixed with other fluids into the ground nationwide between 2005 and 2009. All this activity increases the chances of spills, leaks, transportation accidents and illegal discharges of wastewater. A spill near Greeley, Colo., last year by PDC Energy released 2,880 gallons of oil and covered 3,900 square feet, leaving groundwater contaminated with benzene at a concentration 128 times higher than the state limit, along with the chemicals toluene and xylene, the document said. Fracking also requires thousands of round trips by heavy trucks transporting water and chemicals to drilling sites and waste away from the sites. Another concern is something called a “frack hit,” which occurs when horizontal drilling and historic and active vertical wells meet, a situation that could lead to blowouts. Environmentalists point out that the state is missing out on some royalties due to flaring, the burning off of excess natural gas. Although the BLM says the gas is of poor quality and can’t go directly into pipelines, Western Values Project claims New Mexico taxpayers have lost more than $42.5 million in royalties since 2009 due to natural gas flaring and venting. They point out that in North Dakota, many oil and gas companies are supporting gas capture planning as a way to reduce excessive flaring. Glenn Schiffbauer of the New Mexico Green Chamber of Commerce said, “A valuable resource is just being burned. The BLM should pause and say, here’s a resource we can get royalties on.” “A closer look at some of the economics motivating the oil and gas industry’s push for great production reveals sheer industry greed and speculation,” the scoping comments conclude. “The bottom line is this — energy companies have told us, ‘Trust us, our fracking ingredients and the process for extracting natural gas are harmless.’ We now know that they have not been truthful and cannot be trusted. Without implementation of a precautionary approach to these risks, BLM will continue to place the health of our community and our environment at risk.”

‘We deserve better’ Chaco, a remote site that records more than a half-million visitor days annually, is at the center of concern about adverse environmental impact from oil and gas drilling. Mike Eisenfeld, staff organizer at the San Juan Citizens Alliance, said during a recent trip to the area, he saw an active natural gas well roughly six miles north of the site. And one day there could be pump jacks within five miles of the ruin. Besides compromising the sense of solitude there, development could interfere with one of the ways modernday visitors connect with Chacoan people: Chaco, which has been designated as a Dark Sky Park by the International Dark Sky Association, is one of the best places in the country to look up and see the same skies that inspired our ancestors. “Once the night sky is washed out, then that connection between the people of the past and ourselves will be lost,” West said. “Extensive development is incompatible with protection of the environment,” Eisenfeld said. “We deserve better with our heritage.” Gov. Madalena, who got a bird’s-eye view of Chaco recently himself, said he is still hoping BLM officials will visit his pueblo and make a presentation about what’s coming. “Money isn’t everything,” he said. “We are rich in culture, traditions. I think that’s more important than anything, than drilling.” Contact Anne Constable at 986-3022 or aconstable@sfnewmexican.com.

Found: Officials have classified deaths as suspicious Continued from Page A-1 When deputies arrived at the scene, Mendoza said, it was immediately apparent that the man and woman were dead. Even if medical aid had been needed, he said, a warrant would have been necessary to search the vehicle. Because it was so early in the investigation, Mendoza said Saturday evening, officials were not seeking a suspect, and the nature of the deaths were still unknown. The deaths were being classified as suspicious because not enough evidence had been gathered to classify them as homicides.

Mendoza said the victims’ ages were not known, but they appeared to be young. He didn’t say what type of firearm had been used in the shootings or where on their bodies the victims had been shot. Many residents on East Ramada Way and nearby roads said they hadn’t seen or heard anything unusual the previous night. Anita Hopkins-Shah, who lives near the road where the car was discovered, said she and her family were hosting a child’s birthday party Saturday. A bouncy house from the event sat right outside the police line.

At 4 p.m. Friday, she had seen the unfamiliar car where the bodies were found, Hopkins-Shah said, but it didn’t worry her at the time because people often park in the nearby field to drink or smoke marijuana. But they always leave, she said, and they seldom do any harm. She and her boyfriend saw the car again Saturday morning, and that’s when they noticed the blood inside the vehicle. They didn’t get closer. Instead, they called the sheriff’s office. Hopkins-Shah said a few neighbors checked out the vehicle while waiting for people to arrive, but no

one recognized it or its occupants. A photo provided by a resident shows the silver, four-door sedan parked along the dirt road near a tree. Another resident, Carlos Atilano, also said the neighborhood is usually quiet, but he said on Saturday night, he heard a car security alarm wailing all night long. He said he arrived home at midnight Friday, and by 4 a.m. Saturday, the alarm was still screeching. Most residents said they didn’t hear anything between Friday night and Saturday morning when police arrived, and no one knew of any local residents who were missing.

Before: Freed hostages say Foley was most tortured Continued from Page A-1 worried parents would know he was alive, he told his fellow captives. His government, he believed, would soon negotiate his release. What appeared to be a turning point was in fact the start of a downward spiral for Foley, a 40-yearold journalist, that ended in August when he was forced to his knees somewhere in the bald hills of Syria and beheaded as a camera rolled. His videotaped death was a very public end to a hidden ordeal. The story of what happened in the Islamic State’s network of prisons in Syria is one of excruciating suffering. Foley and his fellow hostages were routinely beaten and subjected to waterboarding. For months, they were starved and threatened with execution. The prisoners banded together, playing games to pass the endless hours, but as conditions grew more desperate, they turned on one another. Some, including Foley, sought comfort in the faith of their captors, embracing Islam. Their captivity coincided with the rise of the group that came to be known as the Islamic State, also known as ISIS, out of the chaos of the Syrian civil war. It did not exist on the day Foley was abducted, but it slowly grew to become the most powerful rebel movement in the region. By the second year of Foley’s imprisonment, the group had amassed about two dozen hostages and devised a strategy to trade them for cash. It was at that point that the hostages’ journeys, which had been largely similar up to then, diverged based on actions thousands of miles away. Foley was one of at least 23 Western hostages from 12 countries, a majority of them European citizens whose governments have a history of paying ransoms. Their struggle for survival, which is being told now for the first time, was pieced together through interviews with five former hostages, locals who witnessed their treatment, relatives and colleagues of the captives, and advisers who made trips to the region to try to win their release. Details were confirmed by a former member of Islamic State who was stationed in the prison where Foley was held. The ordeal has remained largely secret because the militants warned the hostages’ families not to go to the news media, threatening to kill their loved ones if they did. The New York Times is naming only those already identified publicly by the Islamic State. Officials in the U.S. say they did everything in their power to save Foley and the others, including carrying out a failed rescue operation. They say the policy of not paying ransoms saves lives in the long run by making Americans less attractive targets. Inside their concrete box, the hostages did not know what their families or governments were doing on their behalf. Mostly they suffered, waiting for any sign they might escape alive.

The grab In Binesh, Syria, two years ago, Foley and his traveling companion, British photojournalist John Cantlie, pulled into an Internet cafe to file their work. More than an hour later, they flagged a taxi for the 25-mile drive to Turkey. They never made it. The gunmen who abducted them did not call themselves the Islamic State because the group did not yet exist on Nov. 22, 2012. But the danger of Islamic extremism was already palpable in Syria. Among the red flags was the growing number of foreign fighters flooding into Syria, dreaming of establishing a “caliphate.”

Over the next 14 months, at least 23 foreigners, most of them freelance journalists and aid workers, would fall into a similar trap, including Steven J. Sotloff, an American freelance journalist, who was taken on Aug. 4, 2013. It was in the course of an interrogation that the jihadists found images of U.S. military personnel on Foley’s laptop, taken during his assignments in Afghanistan and Iraq. “In the archive of photographs he had personally taken, there were images glorifying the American crusaders,” they wrote in an article published after Foley’s death. The punishment for any perceived offense was torture. “You could see the scars on his ankles,” Jejoen Bontinck, 19, of Belgium, who was released late last year, said of Foley. “He told me how they had chained his feet to a bar and then hung the bar so that he was upside down from the ceiling. Then they left him there.” At first, the abuse did not appear to have a larger purpose. Nor did the jihadists seem to have a plan for their growing number of hostages. Foley converted to Islam soon after his capture and adopted the name Abu Hamza, Bontinck said. Former hostages said a majority of the Western prisoners had converted during their captivity. Only a handful of the hostages stayed true to their own faiths, including Sotloff, then 30, a practicing Jew. Those recently released said most of the foreigners had converted under duress, but that Foley had been captivated by Islam. When the guards brought an English version of the Quran, Foley spent hours engrossed in the text, one former hostage said.

A terrorist state Late last year, the jihadists began pooling their prisoners, bringing them to the same location in Aleppo, Syria. By January, there were at least 19 men in an approximately 215-square-foot cell and four women in an adjoining one. All but one of them were European or North American. Each prisoner was now handcuffed to another. After months of holding them without making any demands, the jihadists suddenly devised a plan to ransom them. The group sent a blitz of messages to the families of the hostages. As time passed, Foley noticed his European cellmates were invited outside again and again to answer questions. He was not. Nor were the other Americans, or the Britons. Soon, the prisoners realized their kidnappers had identified which nations were most likely to pay ransoms, said a former hostage.

The European prisoners went from answering additional personal questions to filming videos to be sent to their families or governments. The videos became more and more charged, eventually including death threats and execution deadlines in an effort to force their nations to pay. The jailers also began waterboarding a select few hostages, former hostages and witnesses said. The three American men and the three British hostages were singled out for the worst abuse, both because of the militants’ grievances against their countries and because their governments would not negotiate, according to several people with intimate knowledge of the events. The person who suffered the cruelest treatment, the former hostages said, was Foley. In addition to receiving prolonged beatings, he underwent mock executions and was repeatedly waterboarded. When a prisoner was hauled out, the others were relieved if he came back bloodied. “It was when there was no blood,” a former cellmate said, “that we knew he had suffered something even worse.” As the negotiations dragged on, conditions became increasingly grim. They spent weeks in darkness, with no mattresses and few blankets. Fights broke out among the prisoners. Foley shared his meager rations. In the cold of the Syrian winter, he offered another prisoner his only blanket. He kept the others entertained, proposing games and activities.

Goodbyes This spring, the hostages were moved from Aleppo to Raqqa. By April, nearly half the captives had been freed. There had been no progress, however, on the ransom demands the jihadists had made for their American and British hostages. Foley watched as his cellmates were released in roughly two-week increments. He continued to believe his government would come to his rescue, said his family, who learned this from freed hostages. By June, the cellblock that had once held at least 23 people had been reduced to just seven. Four of them were Americans, and three were British — all citizens of countries that refused to pay ransoms. In an article recently published in an official Islamic State magazine, the jihadists laid out the role European and American ransom policies had played in their decision to kill Foley. “As the American government was dragging its feet, reluctant to save James’ life,” they wrote in the magazine, “negotiations were made by the governments of a number of European prisoners, which resulted in the release of a dozen of their prisoners after the demands of the Islamic State were met.” Fifteen hostages were freed from March to June for ransoms averaging more than 2 million euros, the former captives and those close to them said. In August, when the militants came for Foley, they made him slip on a pair of plastic sandals. They drove him to a bare hill outside Raqqa and slit his throat. Two weeks later, a similar video surfaced on YouTube showing Sotloff’s death. In September, the militants uploaded the execution of a British hostage, David Cawthorne Haines. In October, they killed Alan Henning, another Briton. Only three from the original group of 23 remain: two Americans, Peter Kassig and a woman who has not been identified, as well as a Briton, Cantlie. The militants have announced they will kill Kassig next.

board of directors. Fryberg was proud of his heritage, posting photos of himself in tribal dress, singing canoe songs and powwow songs, even, according to one news report, honoring his grandmother by presenting her with a slain deer. Josh Iukes, 14, also a tribal member, said he had known Fryberg since preschool, and said Fryberg loved to play football, wrestle and hunt. “There were guns around the house,” Iukes said. “They were mostly rifles. He would go hunting with his dad most of the time. They were pretty close. He and his dad had a really good relationship, and his brother and his mom all did, too.” Fryberg’s brother Julian, 13, is in eighth grade, Iukes said. The gun used during the shooting, however, was a pistol, said Iukes, who was in the cafeteria at the time. “I have no idea where he got the pistol,” he said. “It didn’t even look like an American pistol. It was really small.” (The police have said they recovered a .40 caliber pistol, the suspected weapon used in the rampage, from the scene.) This month, Fryberg got into a fight

at football practice, punching a student and breaking his nose over a racial slur against Native Americans, Iukes said. That day, ShyAnn Wolf, 16, a junior, was in a sports medicine class. “The kid that got his nose broken came in with a bloody nose — it was gushing blood,” she said. “He told our sports med teacher that Jaylen just came up and grabbed him and started punching.” Wolf, whose boyfriend is a football player, later also heard that a racist joke had started the fight, and said Fryberg had been briefly suspended from the football team. It was unclear whether the fight and the shooting were related, but Wolf said racial tension was rare at Marysville-Pilchuck High. A few days before the shooting, Iukes said, Fryberg’s demeanor changed markedly, but he refused to talk about it. In math class, Iukes noticed that Fryberg was listening to headphones instead of doing schoolwork, as he normally would, and asked what was wrong. “He said, ‘It doesn’t concern you,’” Iukes recalled.

EBOLA

THE NEW MEXICAN Sunday, October 26, 2014

As Ebola spread in Dallas, New York honed protocol By Sabrina Tavernise, Anemona Hartocollis, Sharon Lafraniere and Abby Goodnough The New York Times

This time was different. When Craig Spencer, a young doctor just back from treating patients with Ebola in Guinea, fell ill with the virus in New York on Thursday, the paramedics who went to get him were dressed in protective suits. He entered Bellevue Hospital through a rear door, far from the busy emergency room, and was taken to a state-of-the-art isolation ward that was locked and guarded. The carefully planned response was a world apart from the scene that unfolded in a Dallas hospital last month when a Liberian man, Thomas Eric Duncan, became the first person to test positive for Ebola in the United States. It was Ebola’s first surprise encounter with a modern medical system, and it was, by all accounts, a bumpy one. Duncan lay in an emergency department room at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital for hours, with a fever and frequent diarrhea, while the same doctor and nurses treated patients in nearby rooms,

medical workers said. A lab technician had to comb through his inbox to find an email from the government on procedures for Ebola blood samples, only to find that he had handled them improperly, the workers said. Rules for protective gear seemed to change with the weather, and some of Duncan’s nurses, unsure of what to wear, resorted to looking for answers on the website of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, according to a health worker involved in the response. The often rudderless response lasted two weeks, and in the end, two nurses, Nina Pham and Amber Joy Vinson, fell ill with the virus. Both have recovered, but the searing experience stunned experts, and shook Americans’ confidence in their health care system. “I’m just gobsmacked,” said David P. Fidler, a law professor at Indiana University and a fellow at Chatham House Centre on Global Health Security. “Ebola was supposed to be something we could handle easily.” The response also prompted a national reckoning, both by the CDC, the federal agency that contributed

to the wobbly response in Dallas, and among hospitals nationwide that are now scrambling to prepare, having learned from mistakes in Texas that many say could have happened to any of them. “There had to be a first hospital, and unfortunately for Texas Presbyterian, it was them,” said Dr. Sean P. Elliott, medical director of infection prevention at the University of Arizona Health Network. His Tucson hospital, Elliott said, is “burning through our supplies of protective gear and putting in tons of people hours” to prepare. “Dallas has touched a very sensitive nerve,” he said. Dallas also shattered the fundamental assumption among most American health officials that almost any large U.S. hospital could safely treat Ebola. Many of the procedures that have been put in place in New York and elsewhere since Dallas reflect that change in thinking — for example, the designation of specific hospitals, like Bellevue or Elliott’s, as point places for Ebola treatment. If there was ever a moment for redemption, Spencer’s case was it. Even

before the result of his Ebola test, a CDC team was on its way to New York from the agency’s base in Atlanta. It was whisked there on a Defense Department plane, which turned right around with a sample of Spencer’s blood that it delivered to a CDC lab around 4 a.m. More CDC disease trackers followed on Friday morning for a total of seven people. The initial team that deployed to Dallas last month was bigger — 10 people — but was hampered by inconsistent protocols for gear at the hospital and a lack of leadership on the ground, for which the team itself was partly responsible. And far from being zipped to a lab on a military flight, the blood sample for Duncan did not arrive at a state laboratory in Austin until almost 48 hours after he got to the emergency room. What is more, the CDC arrived in Dallas only after Duncan’s test came back positive, on Sept. 30, two days after the hospital first called the agency. It is too soon to tell whether the response to Spencer’s infection will continue as smoothly as it began. His condition worsened on Saturday, though he remained awake and communicative,

health officials said. Spencer was “entering the next and more serious phase of his illness, as anticipated with the appearance of gastrointestinal symptoms,” Ana Marengo, a spokeswoman for the city’s public hospital system, said in a statement. In a brief telephone interview from his hospital room, Spencer spoke in a neutral tone. “I’m still undergoing treatment,” he said. The case of Spencer, a health worker who was diligently monitoring his own temperature, was always going to be different from that of Duncan, a welder from Monrovia visiting the United States, who arrived unannounced and told health workers that he had not been exposed. Even so, Spencer’s case, as it unfolded across New York, with disease detectives chasing his trail from a Brooklyn bowling alley to his Harlem apartment, seemed to ring in a new era. “We are all much smarter now,” said Dr. William Schaffner, an infectious-disease specialist at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville. “We have all learned from the Dallas episode.”

Nurse tests negative, criticizes quarantine effort The New York Times

The city of Dallas says nurse Nina Pham’s dog must remain in quarantine until Nov. 1. CITY OF DALLAS, DALLAS ANIMAL SERVICES/ THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Recovered nurse must wait for dog DALLAS — A Texas nurse who has recovered from Ebola must wait to see her King Charles spaniel, Bentley. Nina Pham returned to Dallas late Friday after her release from the National Institutes of Health. She has repeatedly tested virusfree and said she was looking forward to see Bentley. Dallas County Judge Clay Jenkins said Saturday the reunion will have to wait until the dog is released Nov. 1 from a quarantine period. Jenkins said officials must make sure the dog is virus-free and cannot infect others. Pham is now immune. Jenkins said veterinarians are concerned that if Pham visits the dog, it might affect Bentley’s behavior and make it harder to monitor for potential symptoms. The Associated Press

A nurse who was being quarantined at a New Jersey hospital after working with Ebola patients in Sierra Leone criticized her treatment Saturday as an overreaction after an initial test found that she did not have the virus. “I am scared about how health care workers will be treated at airports when they declare that they have been fighting Ebola in West Africa,” the nurse, Kaci Hickox, wrote in an essay on the website of The Dallas Morning News, in collaboration with a friend who works for the paper. “I am scared that, like me, they will arrive and see a frenzy of disorganization, fear, and most frightening, quarantine.” She described having been held in isolation for about seven hours at Newark Liberty International Airport on Friday, left alone for long stretches and given only a granola bar when she said she was hungry. Hickox, 33, was placed in quarantine Friday under a new policy announced Friday by the governors of New York and New Jersey. Under the new rule, all people entering the country through Newark and Kennedy airports are being quarantined for 21 days if they had direct contact with

Ebola patients in Guinea, Liberia or Sierra Leone, even if they show no symptoms of infection. On Friday night, New Jersey health officials said the nurse had developed a fever after landing, but on Saturday, they said her blood had tested negative for Ebola. Additional tests will be conducted to confirm the finding. Hickox disputed that she had had a fever. She wrote that at the airport, a forehead scanner showed her temperature to be 101, but that came after four hours during which she had not been allowed to leave. “My cheeks were flushed, I was upset at being held with no explanation,” she wrote. “The female officer looked smug. ‘You have a fever now,’ she said.” She was eventually escorted by eight police cars to the hospital and taken to a tent outside the building. An oral thermometer showed her temperature to be 98, she wrote. A forehead scan taken around the same time read 101, she wrote, suggesting that it was not a reliable instrument to determine fever. She wrote that the doctor felt her neck and rechecked the temperature. “ ‘There’s no way you have a fever,’ he said. ‘Your face is just flushed.’ ” Her complaints served as a broadside against the new quarantine policy, which goes further than recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The new policy has raised concerns

American Civil Liberties Union on New Jersey, he would have serious questions about the legality of her quarantine. “Mandatory quarantine of people exhibiting no symptoms and when not medically necessary raises serious constitutional concerns about the state abusing its police powers,” Ofer said. “Ebola is a public health issue, and the government’s response should be driven by science and facts and not by fear.”

As insurers cut costs, providers push back with host of fees By Elisabeth Rosenthal The New York Times

Leo Boudreau of Massachusetts was thrilled to find a psychologist in his insurance network to treat his teenage daughter for emotional stress related to a medical condition. The therapist worked out of a local hospital. But he was surprised when the bill for each visit contained two charges: the approximately $100 he expected to see for the therapist — and a similar fee for the room, which was not covered. “How could it be that the doctor was in network and the hospital was in network, but I had to pay separately for the room?” Boudreau said. As insurers ratchet down payments to physicians and hospitals, these providers are pushing back with a host of new charges: Ophthalmologists are increasingly levying separate “refraction fees” to assess vision acuity. Orthopedic clinics impose fees to put an arm in a cast or provide a splint, in addition to the usual bill for the office visit. On maternity wards, new mothers pay for a lactation consultant. An emergency room charges an “activation fee” in addition to its facility charges. Psychologists who have agreed to an insurer’s negotiated rate for neuropsychological testing bill patients an additional $2,000 for an “administration charge.” In some cases, such as refraction, the services were never typically covered by health insurance but had generally been performed gratis as part of an exam. In others, the fees are novel constructs. In any case, as insurers and providers fight over revenues in an era of cost control, patients often find themselves caught in the middle, nickel-and-dimed. Some of the charges come directly out of patients’ wallets at the time of treatment and catch patients off guard. And if they do not write a check for the refraction fee, for example, many doctors will not dispense a prescription for the glasses. When Laura Gottsman took her 15-year-old daughter to the Palo Alto Medical Foundation in California last month with a broken arm, she had to sign a special form agreeing to pay for the sling if the insurer did not. A sling charge? Both of her daughters previously had broken arms set at the clinic, and she had not encountered such forms. “There really wasn’t an option to say, ‘No, I don’t want the sling,’ ” she said. She had not yet received the bill. Liz Madison, a spokeswoman for Sutter Health, which owns the clinic, said that a sling counted as a type of durable medical equipment and patients typically pay for such items. Cindy Weston of the American Medical Billing Association, an industry group, said it was up to physicians to decide what to include in their principal payment and what merited an extra charge. She said they now “may be forced to charge” for new services because the Affordable Care Act “has shifted so much responsibility for payment from insurers to patients” and patients do not pay as reliably as insurers. These new fees are worrisome to health advocates. At a time when the country is trying to hold down health care costs, payments that come from patients shift spending to a place where they cannot be readily tallied. An annual physical is covered, but not some of the blood work that a physician has ordered. The Affordable Care Act gives guidance on what kinds of exams must be covered at no cost as preventive services. But Clare Krusing, a spokeswoman for America’s Health Insurance Plans, an industry group, said, “If a provider chooses to do something beyond what’s covered, there may be charges.”

Just last week, first lady Michelle Obama was in Iowa City urging college students to vote early for Braley at campus polling places.

Building a Navajo and Jewish connection

Going negative? Try to tell the truth

R

I

ecently a gathering was held in Albuquerque called “Healing the Wounds of History: The Long Walk and the Holocaust.” Which begs the question, what does the Navajo community have in common with the Jewish community? Gordon Bronitsky, the man who has organized a series of Navajo/Jewish dialogues over the past 18 months, explained that he began thinking about this nearly two decades ago. “I was working with the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center [in the 1980s] to develop a voter registration drive. I had given Harlan a [presentation] McKosato … and afterward, Commentary we were sitting around talking, and one after another [Natives] started saying that they didn’t like missionaries, that missionaries didn’t respect them, that missionaries were always coming after them — and it occurred to me that I had heard that conversation before, from Jews,” said Bronitsky, president of Bronitsky and Associates. He belongs to Congregation Albert in Albuquerque. “At that point, I began wondering, what do we have in common?” said Bronitsky, whose company works with indigenous people around the world in the performing arts and festival development. “I meant in terms of religious freedom issues, cultural survival issues, ties to sacred land, language and things like that.” The first dialogue was held in the spring of 2013 in Albuquerque and was titled “Living in Two Worlds: How Do We Keep Our Balance?” The featured speakers were Rabbi Harry Rosenfeld of Congregation Albert and Navajo medicine man Johnson Dennison. The second was held in the fall of last year and was titled “What Makes Land Sacred?” It also featured Rosenfeld and Dennison. It was held at the Navajo Nation Museum in Window Rock, Ariz. “I’m not sure there are similarities in terms of practices and rites,” Rosenfeld said. “But what I have discovered is that both Native Americans and Jews face some of the same issues — being a minority in the larger world while trying to maintain our history, culture, language and family ethic. It’s really hard to do. There are some things we can learn from each other about how to do that.” The third dialogue took place earlier this month and featured Rosenfeld and a thought-provoking presentation from Frank Morgan, a retired educator from the Navajo Nation who is now involved with cross-cultural concepts/interpretations/translations between the Navajo and Western cultures. “There are certain areas where there are some commonalities (between Navajos and Jews), and other areas there’s not. Presently, I think both sides are more pragmatic following our teachings from the past,” said Morgan, who grew up in the Four Corners area. There were also stimulating questions from the audience. Jewish members “mostly wanted to clarify where there might be common ground. For example, how Navajos view concepts of God. I don’t have a problem with it,” said Morgan, whose father was instrumental in bringing the Native American Church to Navajo lands in the 1930s. “Of course there are some things that are very sacred, so I don’t go into any detail. There’s quite a bit of curiosity. There are a lot of universal aspects to the secular life, but culture is a little bit different.” “The dialogues have grown,” added Bronitsky. “There have been more people at each one. I plan on having another one in the spring somewhere on the Navajo Nation. In Albuquerque, it’s the Navajo speakers that get most of the questions, and in Window Rock it’s the rabbi. No one knew if there would be any interest, but I feel having these dialogues is an accomplishment in and of themselves.” Rosenfeld concluded, “We’ve developed a sense of mutual equality and trust. I think it’s time for us to start talking about how we can not just learn from each other, but how we can help each other — how we can support each other in our struggles and becoming stronger cultures.” Harlan McKosato is director of NDN Productions and Sauk/Ioway.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

League of Women Voters seeks to inform

D

onna Reynolds, president of the Santa Fe County League of Women Voters, sincerely asserts that the League of Women Voters is nonpartisan (“League of Women Voters an advocate for voters, not parties,” My View, Oct. 19). But that’s true only when that can be done. Since the major purpose of the league is “to better educate voters,” this has to be a partisan slap at the Republicans. Nothing can be more harmful to that party than education — except, perhaps, losing the support of Koch brothers types. Republicans pretend they are concerned with voter fraud, not voter suppression (a Loyola Marymount University study found only 31 valid cases out of more than a billion votes cast since 2000). They claim to want to protect women’s health, not wage war on women — while more than 200 laws restricting abortions were passed between 2011 and 2013. They claim to favor democracy while championing the rule of money, not of the people. An informed public would be fatal for them. Roger Carasso

Santa Fe

Different view If Rabbi Malka Drucker continues to play the perpetual victim to justify a settler colonial country in Palestine (“Writer’s views on Israel in ‘Pasatiempo’ story cause pain,” My View, Oct. 19), she must be prepared to suffer the pain of condemnation when that entity becomes a militaristic persecutor of the indigenous population it is cleansing. Nevertheless, she can still convince William W. Derbyshire (“Suffering Israelis,” Letters to the editor, Oct. 19) how badly Israelis suffer from pretend rockets from Gaza falling harmlessly in the desert as thousands of Gazans die at colonizer hands on real American weapons actually donated and resupplied by taxpayers.

Offensive, not funny

Amendment 5 is a red herring. Nearly every elected official or candidate tells us that they are going to create jobs and strengthen the economy of New Mexico or the United States. In reality, their actions seldom support their rhetoric. The proposed Amendment 5 to the New Mexico Constitution in this year’s general election is a prime example. Amendment 5 would change the rules that regulate the investments of the New Mexico Land Grant Permanent Fund. Apparently, the amendment supports good intentions: to reduce risk to the fund and to produce a more reliable income stream to educate our children without raising our taxes. There is one major inconsistency: The amendment would remove the 15 percent upper limit on the book value of investments in “international funds,” i.e., funds that are based in all countries except the U.S. Does it make sense to educate our children for jobs in the U.S. when the state of New Mexico is investing in and creating jobs in other countries? Apparently, Gov. Susana Martinez, Ray Powell and the Legislature didn’t “think the issue through” or they don’t really believe the U.S. has a future. Vote “no” on Amendment 5. Joe D’Anna

Vote for environment Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel this month released a Pentagon report stating that climate change poses an immediate threat to national security. The cost to taxpayers supporting military disaster responses are certain to rise. As you consider who to vote for this November, remember that policies that protect our air and water will reduce the rate of climate change. Conversion to solar energy production reduces the burden of pollutants on our planet. Policies that encourage this shift now will save us a lot of money in the long run. John Buchser

Fort Marcy equipped Last March, you printed a letter of mine (“Fort Marcy needs exercise machines,” March 12) describing the need for new exercise equipment at the Fort Marcy Recreation Complex. I’m happy to report that need has been met. As of last week, we have all new aerobic machines, including ellipticals, treadmills, bicycles and steppers. New weight room equipment was also installed. We would just like to take a moment to thank all those involved, including the City Council, the city Recreation Division and the Fort Marcy staff. It makes a difference to a lot of us.

Santa Fe

Need a bag? I am embarrassed for the city of Santa Fe that our “progressive” citizens have not responded to the plastic bag ban (“Shoppers fail to reuse bags,” Oct. 23) by bringing their own bags for shopping. I am also distressed that “employees at about a third of stores put items in paper bags” without asking if a bag is needed or wanted, mirroring my experience. Clerks frequently don’t notice I have my own bag, and I can’t even say I don’t need one before they begin bagging. While the City Council tries to figure out how to disincentivize paper bag use, I challenge all store owners to train employees to ask about bagging. To incentivize them to do so, I suggest, “You will receive a free, reusable bag if you are not asked if you need one.” In the meantime, when I shop, I will talk to each store manager when an employee neglects to ask, “Do you need a bag?”

’ve talked a lot about attack ads in this column and in other parts of the paper. And I’m afraid some might think I’m squeamish about such things. I’m not. It’s true that by this time in an election cycle, I’ve had it up to my ears with all campaign ads. But being a bonafide political junkie, I have to admit that I appreciate a good headbonking political ad, probably a lot more than average viewers do. Who can forget the classics like the “Demon Sheep” ad by Republican U.S. Senate candidate Carly Fiorina in 2010. (Her primary opponent was a “wolf in sheep’s clothing,” accordSteve Terrell ing to Fiorina.) Or, Roundhouse from that same Roundup golden year, Alabama Agricultural Commission candidate Dale Peterson, who in a minutelong, angry ad held a rifle, called one of his primary opponents a “dummy” and talked about the “thugs and criminals” who “don’t give a rip about Alabama.” Now that’s entertainment! There have been clever negative ads here. For instance, this year in New Mexico has seen Democratic state auditor candidate Tim Keller’s Breaking Bad ad, which actually received national attention because of its overt appeal to fans of the AMC television series — although one national publication quipped that the ad almost implied that Keller’s opponent was cooking meth. No, the problems I have with the bulk of attack ads are a) they’re not very original, and most aren’t even good enough for a chuckle; and b) they’re full of distortion, half-truths and irreverent dribble. There was a recent attack ad, though, that wasn’t very flashy — no demon sheep — but was novel in that it wasn’t full of insults and lies about the candidate being slammed. This was not a television spot but a campaign mailer, so chances are you threw it out with your other junk mail (like I almost did). But I thought it was noteworthy. I’m talking about the one from a previously unheard-of political action committee that praised Republican Secretary of State Dianna Duran and criticized her Democratic opponent, Maggie Toulouse Oliver. The group called New Mexicans for Honest Leadership (no points for originality there) is headed by an Albuquerque man named Jeffrey M. Mitchell. In my blog last week, I noted that there’s not much of a record for Mitchell as a political player. His name doesn’t appear as a contributor in the state campaign finance database. Since then, however, I learned that there’s a lawyer in Albuquerque named Jeffrey M. Mitchell who works in the same law firm as Rob Doughty. Doughty defended the Secretary of State’s Office before the state Supreme Court when Duran was trying to keep the nonbinding question about marijuana decriminalization off the general election ballot in Santa Fe and Bernalillo counties. I can’t say with 100 percent confidence that the lawyer in Doughty’s firm is the same Jeffrey M. Mitchell who is the leader of the PAC because he never called me back late last week. The mailer has some of the tacky trimmings of generic attack ads. For instance, there’s a nice color portrait of a smiling Duran and a fuzzy blackand-white snapshot of Oliver with downcast eyes and a frown. The issue in the mailer is voter fraud and voter ID laws. The text correctly says that Duran supports such laws and Oliver opposes them because she “doesn’t believe voter fraud is a real problem in New Mexico.” This is true. Oliver has said as much and has produced a recent study by a Loyola Law School professor who found only 31 credible cases of fraud committed at polling places in the U.S. since 2000. Of course, no academic study is going to change the minds of those who think voter fraud is a national scourge. But at least this mailer didn’t distort any quotes, bring up votes from the past century or personally slam anyone’s character. Contact Steve Terrell at sterrell@ sfnewmexican.com.

OUR VIEW

For governor, Martinez

N

ew Mexico voters are between a rock and a hard place this November as they select their next governor. They are faced with two choices. There’s incumbent Republican Gov. Susana Martinez, personally popular, but who, in her first term, has failed to strengthen the state’s economy, whose education reforms aren’t improving learning yet burden children and teachers, and whose dismantling of the state’s behavioral health system is unpardonable. Then there’s the challenger, Democratic Attorney General Gary King, also likeable, but who offers a lackluster record as attorney general and has not leveraged his campaign to show voters why he is the better person to run the state. But choose we must. New Mexico has big challenges to face and conquer. In no particular order, New Mexico must shore up its private sector so that the state’s best and brightest young people have a reason to return — or stay — home after college and adventures. That includes a tax policy that does not penalize locally owned businesses at the expense of out-of-state behemoths. A tax on online sales could help put small, New Mexico-owned and operated businesses on a fair footing. It’s not a tax increase, it’s tax fairness. A glimmer of hope in the gray economic news is the persistent drumbeat of new jobs over the past few months. In Santa Fe, we saw Santa Fe Brewing Co. unveil plans to add more than 100 jobs — and its expansion was aided by a $250,000 state Local Economic Development grant, something for which the governor deserves credit. The next governor must work hand in hand with the Legislature to improve our tax structure to support made-in-New Mexico (including TV and movies) businesses. New Mexico must reform its education reforms so that teachers can be evaluated objectively and fairly with less emphasis on tests; the school grading system (which we initially supported) must be refined so that it makes sense to someone other than a few state-level bureaucrats; or else, junk it entirely and save time and money. Rather than fight over whether third-graders should be held back, we must put the right resources into helping children learn to read before third grade, and provide tutors and support for slow-to-read children after third grade — the latest research shows that holding children back does not improve educational outcomes later. The next governor should look at what changes are working — expansion of pre-K and making K-3 plus permanent — and not be afraid to adjust. A different Cabinet secretary for education, one with classroom teaching experience in New Mexico, would be the right step toward true reform. New Mexico must set its system of caring for behavioral health patients in order. When the administration dismantled health care for some of the state’s most vulnerable patients, it was with the state goal of stopping Medicaid fraud. Who’s not in favor of stopping fraud? However, that fraud remains unproven and the system was shattered. One way to begin the necessary overhaul is again at the top, by finding a Cabinet secretary with respect for the people who are receiving services and who doesn’t mind engaging in conversation with legislators, even ones with tough questions. The next governor must focus on better Cabinet appointees so that the essential work of the state gets done. On issues of caring for the environment, on whether to improve film and television tax subsidies, on whether driver’s licenses for immigrants without proper documentation are a threat to safety (of course not!), we have disagreed vehemently with the governor. It’s likely that we will continue to do so. However, in any re-election, voters have two questions to answer. The first is about the incumbent: Do you like the job that’s been done? Depending on the answer there, the second question: Can the challenger do better? For us, the answer to the first is — not much. But the answer to the second is — not likely. The challenger, whether while serving as attorney general or running his campaign, has given voters few reasons to choose him. The incumbent, we believe, safely in office for a second term, can turn to building her legacy. She has intelligence, charisma and — in her last-minute tax compromise and in expanding Medicaid coverage — delivered bipartisan accomplishments. She deserves credit for a State Investment Council that is prudent and free from scandal, investing New Mexico’s wealth smartly. She has proven able to balance the budget, choosing cuts over raising taxes, but in a second term, could choose tax reform over both — there’s the possibility of increasing revenues and making our tax system fairer and more transparent. In a second term, she doesn’t have to be combative, even if that’s her natural default mode, born of years as a prosecutor. She can choose areas of accommodation — the aforementioned tax reform, saving Amtrak for Northern New Mexico, overhauling higher education to focus the institutions’ missions and giving the green light to important infrastructure projects both as economic stimulus and necessary repairs. Much remains to be done in New Mexico. A governor must be decisive, bold and able to start and see a project through completion. For those reasons, return Gov. Susana Martinez to office.

Even airport screenings may be a feelgood distraction.

The editorial suggests that airport screening “will have no meaningful effect” and that resources would be better used fighting Ebola in West Africa. For all the fuss about our own borders, not nearly enough is being done where it counts most: in West Africa. Bravo to President Barack Obama for pledging up to 4,000 troops to fight the disease there, but the United States and other countries must do far more — and quickly! — if Ebola is to be defeated. The number of Ebola cases is still doubling every two to four weeks, and these countries can’t defeat the outbreak on their own. Liberia is said to have only 50 practicing doctors, according to Reuters, and there appears to be more Liberian doctors practicing in the United States than in Liberia. That brain drain means that Liberia, in effect, is providing medical foreign aid to the United States. These are lovely countries with friendly people and some heroic health workers, but roads, electricity and other infrastructure are desperately weak. All Liberia can produce less than one-third as much electricity as the Dallas Cowboys football stadium consumes at peak times. That’s why the U.S. military’s help in West Africa is crucial, and why it’s a disgrace that less than half of a Sept. 16 U.N. target for Ebola response funds has been raised. Our values and interests coincide here. So let’s calm down and get to work protecting America from Ebola by stopping this disaster at its source.

Long live the Great Books education

I

am in Santa Fe for a conference celebrating the 50th anniversary of St. John’s College, one of the few institutions of higher learning in America that I like. And they like me! I praised St. John’s and its regimented, we-read-Aristotle-inGreek-and-you-should-too curriculum in a book I wrote a few years ago. The “Johnnies,” as the graduates call themselves, emerge from college ferociously well-educated and not devoid of quirks. At their Annapolis, Md., campus, coxswains have been known to shout orders to the crew team in Greek. At Santa Fe, I found myself staring at an odd little booth, labeled “Telephon” — in Greek characters, of course. On Facebook, that aspirational netherworld of happy kittens and supportive “friends,” I list myself as a St. John’s graduate. A man can dream, can’t he? The so-called Great Books curriculum has traveled a sinuous path since the 1930s, when the Laurel-and-Hardy duo of University of Chicago president Robert Maynard Hutchins and his gnomish sidekick Mortimer Adler (How to Read a Book) foisted their educational plan on undergrads. Great Books reading groups were briefly modish. Adler and Hutchins famously led a discussion of Plato’s Apology before an audience of 1,500 businessmen, labor leaders, and ordinary folks at Chicago’s Orchestra Hall. The annoying, brilliant Adler used to show up at the St. John’s campuses well into the 1960s, inveighing against cultural diversity and intellectual relativism, and

The Great Books education has been floundering for decades. defending the handiwork of the out-offavor dead white men who created the Western canon. The Great Books education has been floundering for decades. Almost every American high school graduate would rather attend a third-tier liberal arts college than wrestle with Anselm’s Proslogion — that’s what St. John’s sophomores will be discussing on Dec. 1 — at a college that offers almost no elective courses. St. John’s experiences every problem faced by U.S. liberal arts colleges, only more so. And it created its own problem: The classes are hard. Freshman washout rates have traditionally been much higher there than at name-brand colleges that socially promote half-literate dipsticks up to graduation. Bereft of a large applicant pool and perennially strapped for cash, St. John’s and the Great Books soldier on. Once the favored curriculum of conservative culture warriors such as William Bennett and Allan Bloom, the mossback reading list finds itself on the educational sidelines yet again. When I asked a group of academics at the St. John’s conference if conservative

ideologues had taken the Great Books hostage, they scoffed. The liberal arts tradition is “thoroughly radical and skeptical of orthodoxy,” Rhodes College professor Dan Cullen answered. “It can’t work out well for conservatives in the long run.” Adler’s biographer Tim Lacy agrees. “Conservatives no longer champion the Great Books idea as a solution to problems in higher education,” he wrote in an email. “That curriculum isn’t front and center now. Today the discussion is about lowering cost, disrupting the entrenched education establishment, and promoting basic skills, via the Common Core, for the workplace.” The Great Books are finished … or are they? In 2010, the California-based C.S. Lewis Foundation purchased some of the Northfield-Mt. Hermon campus in central Massachusetts, planning to launch a Great Books college in 2012. “We are going to follow the St. John’s model of Socratic pedagogy,” a Narnia gang member told the Globe. “This is about renewal of the civilization for years and years to come.” Obviously they are behind schedule, and they didn’t respond to my inquiries. According to their website, the college remains “in the early stages of fundraising, state filing, and renovating the campus.” The Great Books are dead — long live the Great Books!

ecords retention and disposition are two of those administrative government functions that do not typically make headline news or even appear below the fold. That is, until someone wants to inspect a record and it can’t be located, or a public official has destroyed a record without the required approval. For those of us who are custodians of public records and charged with managing, protecting and preserving these records, the destruction of public records outside the legal process can represent a gap in New Mexico’s history. Records management professionals understand and respect that records can have administrative, fiscal, informational, intrinsic, evidentiary and legal value as well as historical significance. In reading a recent article in the Albuquerque Journal about the destruction of public records, I noticed a comment relating to electronic records. Specifically, a public officer stated that the current statutory scheme is not based on an “electronic records systems.” I am certain that custodians from Raton to Carlsbad and Gallup to Clovis were wringing their hands in exasperation. Statements such as this cause me to pause and contemplate how to more effectively educate public officers so they will practice appropriate records retention and embrace their responsibility to manage the public records they create. In light of this dilemma, it seems essential to offer a brief explanation of records retention and disposition as it relates to New Mexico public records. The Public Records Act defines public records as “all books, papers, maps, photographs or other documentary materials, regardless of physical form or characteristics, made or received by an agency in pursuance of law or in connection with the transaction of public business. …” The section that is most important for this conversation is “regardless of physical form or characteristics.” Whether information is printed on a piece of cloth or sent electronically, if it is made or received by an agency in the course of public business, it is a public record. It is important to note that an email announcing doughnuts in the break

Public records must be preserved

PRC’s big decision: Wasteful coal or renewables? s the monsoons delighted New Mexicans over the summer, we were reminded of how precious our water is, of its power to dramatically alter our landscape and lives, and the responsibility we face to value and allocate this resource throughout the state. With our Public Regulation Commission considering the Public Service Company of New Mexico’s Esha plan to produce Chiocchio energy with more coal and nuclear, we must remind decision-makers that water conservation is a top priority. The decision they make must go beyond party lines and political alliances. This fall, the PRC has a chance to serve public interests and protect the vulnerable resource we all share. Santa Feans know how to conserve water. Since the city municipalized the water company in 1996 (once owned by PNM), we’ve reduced consumption by 40 percent. What may not be immediately apparent, though, is that with PNM electricity, turning on the lights is like letting the tap run in the desert. Why? Because nuclear, coal and other fossil fuel production requires billions of gallons of water. The San Juan Generating Station guzzles 22,000 acre-feet of water per year to cool its coalfired plant — that’s 11,000 gallons per minute, and translates to just over half a gallon per kilowatthour. To put this into perspective, San Juan consumes more than twice the annual water usage of the entire city of Santa Fe (10,000 acre-feet). Where does this water come from? The San Juan River — the very same river that provides drinking water for Santa Fe and Albuquerque. Agua es vida. No New Mexican would argue with that statement, that water is life. And despite that sudden afternoon rain-patter of late summer, we’ve been in drought for six years. We know what drought means: Crop production and livestock loss, food insecurity, water shortages, severe wildfires and subsequent flooding. We need to build local resilience through renewable energy and water conservation, and we can’t count on an investor-owned utility to have those kinds of interests in mind. Can we count on the PRC? Even as rivers run low, PNM proposes to reinvest in coal and import nuclear energy from the Palo Verde Nuclear Plant near Phoenix. If the PRC doesn’t stop the company, we’ll increase our percentage of nuclear power, which uses even more water than coal — .768 gallons per kilowatthour — and increases the risk of further water pollution from nuclear waste. In this particular case, nuclear also has long transmission lines (more than 600 miles to reach Albuquerque) and does not create any jobs for New Mexicans. According to findings from the National Renewable Energy Lab, if PNM were to invest the same amount of money in wind rather than nuclear power, not only would we waste zero water resources, but the company would create 630 New Mexican jobs during construction (generating $80 million in local economic activity), 72 permanent jobs ($10 million in local economic activity) and $4 million in annual property taxes and income to landowners. With a similar investment in solar, PNM could generate more than 2,000 jobs during the construction phase alone and use a mere fraction of the water resources. Let’s hope our PRC members go for local jobs and water conservation. They have the chance to save us billions of gallons of water per year, for many years to come.

room is not a public record. Likewise, junk mail received by state employees that is clearly unrelated to business is Linda M. not a public Trujillo record. However, an email requesting and responding to a request to inspect records is, of course, a public record. How long a public record should be retained depends on the value and importance of the record. In 1959, the New Mexico Legislature delegated authority to the Commission of Public Records to develop and maintain records retention schedules for the efficient and effective management of public records created by state agencies. The commission meets at least four times each year and adopts, amends, repeals and replaces record retention and disposition schedules. These schedules are published in the New Mexico Register and compiled topically as part of the New Mexico Administrative Code. Some records have a very short retention. General correspondence files, for example, that are non-executive in nature have only a one-year retention from the close of the fiscal year in which created. On the other hand, executive orders and proclamations are permanent. About 84 percent of public records in New Mexico have a retention period of 10 years or less. Professional records management is a changing field. Who would have thought 10 years ago that state agencies would have a Facebook page or public officers would use Twitter to communicate with the public. Nevertheless, technology marches forward and records managers are adapting to provide public agencies with guidance and support to ensure public records, including electronic records, are properly managed. Linda M. Trujillo is an attorney and the current state records administrator appointed by the state Commission of Public Records. She also serves on the Santa Fe Public Schools Board of Education.

Historic errors may disenfranchise thousands, including me

W

hen I moved to Santa Fe this summer, one of the first things I did was apply for a New Mexico driver’s license. At the same time, I registered to vote using a paper form. This week, I learned from the secretary of state’s registration information website that my voter registration was never processed. I received no notification of any problems with my registration. Calls to the secretary of state and a visit to the Santa Fe County clerk were fruitless — I’m just denied the ability to vote because the secretary of state, Santa Fe County clerk and/or Motor Vehicle Division lost my paperwork. How many New Mexicans will be similarly affected, rendering them voiceless in the upcoming election because of the failings of their state government? Evidence suggests that number could be in the thousands. I looked into this issue and found numerous irregularities involving voter registration cases at MVD offices. A Progress Now investigation found that one-click “Motor Voter” registration at the MVD, required by

state and federal law, is apparently nonfunctional. Now that we’re past the Oct. 7 registration deadline, anyone who was relying on this system is now unable to vote in the upcoming Brian election. Sweeney With electronic and paper registration barriers in place, voter registration has suffered immensely. In New Mexico’s most populous county, Bernalillo County, MVD voter registration is down 90 percent in 2014. In the 10 months since its implementation, that means the Motor Voter system has failed to register 2,230 New Mexicans in Bernalillo County alone. Reports indicate that the secretary of state has been aware of this issue since April, but has done nothing to fix the problem. So, to recap: MVD is losing paper voter registration forms, violates state and federal law with a nonfunctional Motor Voter system, is doing so on a scale that will likely affect a signifi-

cant portion of the electorate, and the person in charge of elections in this state has known about the issue for six months but has not taken action to fix it. Secretary of State Dianna Duran deserves to be voted out of office in the upcoming election for her blatant dereliction of duty on this issue. Duran has famously and quixotically crusaded against voter fraud and has made the issue a centerpiece of her re-election campaign. She often states that one instance of fraud disenfranchises all eligible New Mexico voters. Duran dedicated her term as secretary of state to rooting out 19 cases of alleged illegal voting, representing a 0.0017 percent rate of fraud if all are convicted. Now, having the power to prevent the disenfranchisement of at least a hundred times more voters, she is sitting on her hands. I question whether Duran’s goals truly include minimizing voter disenfranchisement in New Mexico. She has focused on a disproportionately minuscule threat to voting integrity in the state, and has stood on the

sidelines as statistically significant numbers of voters may very well find themselves disenfranchised on Nov. 4. After Election Day, we will likely learn how many people have been affected by this avoidable civil rights mugging. When that number indeed comes to light, New Mexico will make headlines for all the wrong reasons. If you go to the polls only to find yourself in my situation, you can still vote using a provisional ballot. This allows a vote to be counted if someone is later deemed eligible. If this issue proves as serious a problem as evidence suggests, the state should mount an effort to have these provisional ballots counted. I’m hopeful that once New Mexico rids itself of the incompetence or underhandedness of Secretary of State Duran by vote or intervention, all eligible New Mexicans will have their votes counted. Brian Sweeney is a New Mexico resident who was forced to vote provisionally in Santa Fe County due to a heretofore-unsolved, large-scale clerical error.

Two or four wheels have to get along

T

he vast majority of Eldorado drivers are kind to bicyclists. Now and then there’s someone with an ego as large as a Hummer and common sense the size of a Tonka Toy. I was actually knocked over by a driver a few years ago who didn’t bother to look left coming out of a lot. But that kind of thing is extremely rare. Gracias a dios. This last couple of weeks, though, there seems to be an epidemic of stupid. Eldorado has many dirt roads that cross bike paths just before entry onto a paved street. One guy stops in the middle of the bike path, looks at me approaching, jumps in panic, grinds his gears and shoots out into traffic. Meantime I had to slam on the brakes. The path has the right of way. Another time a woman pulls up, stops like a good driver, then sees me riding up the road she wants to enter. I’m on the road, because for some reason, Eldorado’s leaders laid down a gravel path on part of the loop for which road bikes aren’t built. She stares blankly at me as I climb the hill closer and closer, waits until the last minute, then pulls out directly in front of me. Last week, I was crossing from the path that runs next to the school. A marked pedestrian crosswalk connects to the path on the other side. I checked both directions, started across, and a car came flying over the hill, a good deal faster than the 35 mph speed limit. I cut back into the ditch and fell on the rocks lining the bottom. The car didn’t stop. The damages were several cuts and scrapes, one deep gash on the right arm that bled profusely and some colorful bruises. I had to wrap gauze around the arm wound because it leaked blood for a couple of days. The only advantage was the next day I flew out of Albuquerque to do a job and discovered that if I sat with my left side against the bulkhead on the Southwest flight, no one would sit near the wound on the right arm. Please, if you drive a car or truck, when you see a bike on the road or on a path, focus and be considerate. We don’t have any steel wrapped around us. But we do move, sometimes at a fairly good clip. And yes, I know there are some bike riders who resemble Evil Knievel and mess up traffic, but that doesn’t mean you have to kill the rest of us. Michael Agar thinks vehicles should have the same number of wheels as people have legs. He works as Ethknoworks in Eldorado on the dysfunctionality of New Mexico water governance.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Oct. 26, 1914: Glenn A. Gray, head of the U.S. Geological Survey here, is soon to see his hydrographers again scattered all over the state, measuring streams and gathering data for the use of the general public. The men who have come from the four corners of the state to lend a hand in the preparation of the multitudinous reports which are begun at the end of each year, have finished their miles of figures and now are returning to their streams and rivers. The reports to be submitted to the government and to the state engineer may not be completed before February or March. Mr. Gray’s desk is swamped with the figures; now comes the task of giving them significance. Oct. 26, 1964: Santa Fe City Police recovered two stolen cars early Sunday, one of them only 19 minutes after it was reported taken and after a chase in which the car was wrecked. Police chased the vehicle at speeds ranging up to 80 miles an hour along St. Francis Drive before it was wrecked and its operator, a juvenile, apprehended.

Chaparral principal For Congress, Byrd is better choice unfairly criticized A

T

he Chaparral Elementary PTA leadership would like to set the record straight regarding one of the accusations leveled against the principal of our school, Michael Granado (“School principal’s actions raise concerns about students safety,” Oct. 15). We are very disappointed that the NEASanta Fe president, Grace Mayer, did not talk to the Chaparral Elementary PTA to get the facts prior to sharing her statements with the public. Fundraising is an absolute necessity for any school these days, and when someone chooses to misrepresent a fundraising incentive as evidence of inappropriate behavior within a school, it negatively impacts everyone. We raise money so that students can have additional materials in their classrooms, for field trips, science fair, special guest presentations, literacy events and many other activities. The best way to raise money is to get everyone involved. Using the principal is especially helpful. Being chosen to participate in

a fun activity with the principal is a great honor for an elementary student. Mayer criticized Granado for “making poor choices about what he sees as fun.” Mayer should know that this was not a reward devised by Granado. The “principal taxi” is an incentive suggested by our fundraising partner and is used in schools across the country. Posters were up around the school advertising the incentive, and announcements were made nearly every day during the fundraising period. Students who sold at least 10 items from a fundraising catalog had their names placed in a drawing. Students whose names were drawn were given a ride in the “principal’s taxi” one day at the end of the fundraising period. We are grateful that our principal was willing to participate in this silly and fun activity to increase sales.

fter months of reading glowing but generalized editorials regarding Ben Ray Luján’s performance as a congressman, the good people of New Mexico’s 3rd Congressional District are surely entitled to some kind of balance. I am writing this letter as a friend of congressional candidate Jefferson Byrd and his beautiful family. Jeff’s friends and colleagues know him as a small business rancher who has repeatedly spoken about a national environment of job creation as opposed to the constant regulations we see. The latter is always followed by job loss, food stamps and welfare meant to keep citizens dependent on government. Jeff often talks to people about self-determination, versus micromanagement of private lives through hostile government takeovers. (E.g., Obamacare left 30,000 more New Mexicans without health insurance last month.) I would also like to mention that Jeff’s history includes a bachelor’s degree in environmental engineering and previous employment at Environeering Inc. and the Navajo Refinery. The former experience demonstrates Jeff’s working commonality between the oil/natural gas industries and environmental concerns. Voting

for Jeff would be a chance for New Mexicans to look to a prosperous future, instead of global warming taxation and more punishment by the federal government against citizens’ responsible use of natural resources. Recent editorials have sugRobyn gested that Rep. Luján will Schmalz make job creation his top priority this term. What happened to the first three terms, while Mr. Luján was voting for higher taxes and intrusive, socialized health care? If elected to Congress, I know Jefferson Byrd wouldn’t place job growth on the back burner. It takes common-sense folks with business knowledge to effectively and passionately help fellow citizens empower themselves and regain a job-friendly climate — not a family of career politicians who, repeatedly, do the same old things with the same stale outcome. Robyn Schmalz moved to New Mexico with her husband four years ago after she retired as an Indianapolis probation officer.

From what we read, this in itself could be a full-time job in New Mexico. To my mind, anyone who becomes wealthy working on state government is automatically suspect. u Serve as commander-in-

chief of the National Guard. If we were to see her in helmet on a military vehicle, we will all be concerned. Gov. Susana Martinez has stated that keeping citizens safe is one of her goals. We have seen violence against women and children of all ethnicities to be of concern in New Mexico. The mission to keep New Mexicans safe could benefit from a close look-see at law enforcement that appears too often to see crime situations as opportunities to replay the shootout at the OK Corral. u Serve as head of the executive branch of government. In New Mexico, this branch includes a lengthy laundry list of commissions, boards, offices, departments and offices, enabling the governor to poke her fingers into everything the state does. Whether any governor is qualified to set educational policy — or even select someone to set educational policy — is a valid question. The real question is what does one want his or her government to do? One might assume things that benefit the common good of all the people of New Mexico with an eye to the long-term, not just the next election cycle.

Utility regulation? Resource protection and development? Coordination of limited resources including water? Communication systems effectiveness? Transportation statewide? Growth and development of industries (jobs) appropriate to New Mexico’s environment and resources? Associated needs to support those industries — education, infrastructure, financial benefits? Protection of and assistance to those citizens with disabilities and special needs? Preservation of the state’s extensive cultural and artistic heritage? The options can be word-smithed endlessly. The fact that the governor might not have “done something for Hispanics” or purple people is the last issue that should concern citizens of New Mexico. Patricia (Groth) Emerson of Santa Fe is a New Mexico native who returned to the state in mid2011. Emerson graduated from the University of Massachusetts and years later earned a master’s degree from the University of Southern California. She spent years in libraries, and then many years working for architects and engineers.

dall vs. Weh — Democrat vs. Republican, how significant is this race and who cares? And more recently, “so what …” Is your vote actually a vote for President Barack Obama’s policies at the midterms? Obama and his cronies’ approval rates are now in the tank and for good reason, because the American people are sick and tired of the toilet lickers and being lied to with countless broken promises. Yet it still continues. So what? Obama may not be on the ballet nor is Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, so why not vote for Tom Udall? Udall is popular, younger, attractive, charming and he’s been around longer, and yet, he’s getting desperate, and he’ll most likely do

anything to get re-elected, like omitting the truth by taking out of context his opponent’s statements as if we’re so stupid and/or too lazy to question. The Democrats depend on the low-information voters to vote for them by promising a lot of free stuff with odds worse than a lottery. So what, as to who’s going to pay for all of this free stuff? If we keep falling for the false promises and wanton free stuff, we’ll suffer the consequences by supporting unpopular Democrats’ domestic and foreign policies. Our country will suffer, and the world suffers by their worthless bad ideas favoring the president’s bad policies. Sen. Udall supports this nonsense by 94 percent. And worst yet, Reid just sits on his

hands upon his imperial paper throne, holding up important legislation and stagnating Congress for either his own personal whims or giving his Democratic colleagues political cover. If you’re really looking for the Hope and Change that was once promised, be smart and vote right! Don’t hope for anything anymore, while you have an opportunity and the responsibility to make a real change and set America on the right course again to return the pride back to our county. Vote right, because we have a chance to make a real change before the next two years sends us into more oblivion. So what if we allow the Dems to fail us again? Robert Willis writes from Santa Fe.

hile much of the political attention is focused on the top of the ballot races for governor and U.S. Senate, there are important choices to make for Northern New Mexico families in races for lesser-known offices such as state auditor. The state auditor is tasked with safeguarding taxpayer dollars at every level of government. In practice, this means that the auditor has financial oversight and responsibility for more than 900 public entities including cities, counties, school districts, state agencies, land grants, universities and even mutual domestic water and acequia associations. Clearly, this important office must be occupied by someone with the utmost integrity and a passion for fixing broken government. That’s why Tim Keller is the best choice for Northern New Mexico families. Tim has a proven record of

challenging the status quo and fighting corruption. He’s passed important reform bills that have helped fix the Public Regulation Commission and State Investment Council after years of dysfunction. Tim Keller’s plan is simple and effective. If there is a single tax dollar involved in a project or transaction, the auditor can advocate for policies that prevent fraud, waste and abuse from occurring in the first place. In this capacity, the auditor can play an ombudsman role with citizens to help ensure that all New Mexicans are getting a fair shake from their government, whether at a local or state level. Unfortunately, Tim’s opponent, Albuquerque lawyer Robert Aragon, doesn’t have the qualifications or a vision for the office. He’s an opportunist and serial candidate who has switched parties when politically expedient. Even worse, a quick check

of public records shows that as a lawyer, Robert Aragon has been sued four times by his own clients for fraud and negligence, putting his own financial interests ahead of theirs. Aragon had to pay at least $30,000 as a result of these lawsuits. And while Robert Aragon wants to be a watchdog for taxpayers, he’s failed to pay a significant sum in his own taxes. A better functioning, more transparent and accountable government is exactly what New Mexico needs. Specifically, we need Tim Keller as auditor so that Northern New Mexico families, like mine, can have a true advocate looking out for their interests in government.

MY VIEW: CRAIG CAMPBELL

Los Alamos pit production deserves scrutiny T

he very concept of proposing to develop new plutonium pits at Los Alamos has to be placed in the category of obscene and hypocritical policies that have dominated the nuclear posture of the United States for too long. Our country is a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty that includes the goal of nuclear disarmament. Our president committed his administration to the goal of nuclear disarmament as required by the treaty, but the proposal to manufacture new bomb pits makes that promise ring hollow. So long as other countries — such as Iran — that do not possess nuclear weapons are confronted with the lack of progress in nuclear disarmament by those that do, it appears hypocritical for the U.S. to put enormous pressure on Iran not to develop nuclear weapons while our ally, Israel, has secretly developed hundreds of such weapons while refusing to sign the Nonproliferation Treaty that Iran has signed. Our New Mexico senators have turned a blind eye to the

reality of the destructive work at Los Alamos, while supporting any funding that in their mind creates jobs and helps the Craig New Mexico Campbell economy. They clearly ignore the fact that the lab after more than 60 years has not contributed to real improvement of social and economic conditions that place our state at the bottom of almost all relevant ratings. Los Alamos has been listed as the wealthiest county in the country — but abuts a county that is one of the poorest and has the highest rate of deaths from drug overdoses in the country. I would urge anyone who wants to find out more about the incredible dangers posed by plutonium pit manufacturing to seriously consider the history of the previous plutonium pit manufacturing at the Rocky Flats Plant outside of Denver. A whole series of serious acci-

dents at the site involving leaks of radioactive materials into the soil, water and air occurred between 1957 and 1970. Plutonium and radioactive particles were found throughout the Denver metro area. In the 1970s, additional land was purchased to create a buffer zone, and tritium was detected in these areas from contaminated materials shipped from Lawrence Livermore Laboratory. More contamination was discovered on adjacent landowners who sued for damages. The FBI raided the site in 1989 and charged numerous violations of federal anti-pollution laws and contamination of soils. The Department of Energy called Rocky Flats’ groundwater the single greatest environmental

to WIPP, which resulted in the closure of that facility, should make our residents extremely uncomfortable about allowing the lab to undertake pit production. This entire program is wrong from an environmental, economic and most importantly, from an ethical standpoint.

‘Green’ building tax credit could get revamp Lawmakers say they plan to introduce legislation in 2015 to extend the incentive and expand its reach By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

It took a few years for the state’s struggling construction industry to take full advantage of a state tax credit offered to builders of more energyefficient homes, apartments and offices. Builders found the credit helped them survive the economic slump

and put buyers in better homes, John Garcia, executive vice president of the Home Builders Association of Central New Mexico, told a legislative tax policy committee Thursday. Now the annual $4 million in sustainable building tax credits available for residential projects is maxed out through 2016, when the credit is set to expire, and there’s still a backlog of builders or homeowners who have

applied for it. Sen. Peter Wirth, D-Santa Fe, and Rep. Carl Trujillo, D-Santa Fe, plan to introduce legislation in the 2015 session of the New Mexico Legislature asking lawmakers to extend the tax credit, double the cap, increase energyefficiency requirements for qualifying buildings and add water conservation as a feature that qualifies for the credit. The sponsors are still working with builders on a draft of the bill. “This bill is about saving energy and building quality homes,” Garcia said.

In addition to the $4 million in sustainable building tax credits for residential projects, the state has $1 million available for commercial and multifamily homes. While the single-family residential tax credits have been used up through 2016, there’s still money available for the commercial tax credit. The tax credit, when initially offered in 2007, was capped at $5 million for commercial and $5 million for residential. When builders failed to take advantage of all the credits, the total

amount was slashed by legislators. Tax credits serve as an incentive for those who get them, but for the state they represent lost tax revenue, Sen. John Arthur Smith, D-Deming, told builders Thursday. While he didn’t say he opposed the proposed changes, he said any additional proposed tax credits will have to compete with proposals by other groups that also want credits. “Meanwhile, we still have to find the money to balance the budget,” Smith said.

t’s not on the tourist track, but Santa Fe’s south side is on track for a brighter future, thanks to an infusion of city and federal support, a new generation of motivated residents and good timing. For decades, largely due to the chaos of intermingled city and county jurisdiction, this large and essential part of Santa Fe lagged far behind every other part of the city in almost every quality-oflife metric: poor infrastructure, few or no sidewalks, inconsistent planning, nonexistent parks, low family incomes, inadequate housing stock and overcrowded schools. Add to that, the south side is recognized as a “food desert,” meaning it is hard for anyone without transportation to find healthy food choices. “There are a couple of gen-

erations that have gone through growing up in that area without those amenities,” said City Councilor Carmichael Dominguez, who has been working to help

improve the quality of life on the south side since he was elected in 2006. The south side is not just a poor side of town. It is an essen-

tial human resource for Santa Fe. The residents represent much of the workforce that supports Santa Fe’s economy: government workers, skilled and unskilled laborers, young families, and much of the workforce of the tourism industry. The average income on the south side is just over half the city’s median income. In addition, the region is home to 43 percent of all children in Santa Fe, including 4,000 presently in the overcrowded public schools on the south side. One bit of good timing came in January, when the city and county completed annexation of 5,173 acres that added nearly 14,000 new city residents. Efforts to improve the quality of life on the south side took hold in 2011, when Dominguez questioned the suitability of allowing businesses to sell liquor close to

At Comic Con, ‘cosplayers’ dominate the halls By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

Hollywood stars Linda Blair of the The Exorcist fame and Ernie Hudson of Ghostbusters were the featured speakers Saturday at the Santa Fe Comic Con at the Buffalo Thunder Resort & Casino. The real crowdpleasers, however, were the dozens of costumed attendees walking the floor. One such person was Leah Stevenson. She had donned intimidating, handmade, spiky black armor based on character models from the hit video game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. She also carried a hefty-looking yellow and gold mace, and she had inset about 40 red LED lights in the

armor to give herself a demonic aura. As she walked the halls, convention-goers sought photos. And every time she gracefully thanked a photographer for a compliment, she would heft the mace above her head. She said she made the costume because she was thrilled that Santa Fe had its own Comic Con. “There’s not a whole of stuff for the under-30 crowd in Santa Fe,” she said. “I just got so excited.” Cosplayers — the name for those who craft and wear costumes based on fictional characters — dominated the rooms filled with prop swords, superhero posters, plastic-wrapped

The campaign trail is the comeback trail for state Rep. Phillip Archuleta. He missed the 30-day legislative session this year because of an infection that led to the amputation of his right leg. Archuleta, D-Las Cruces, said in an interview Thursday that he is better and his health has not been a negative factor in his campaign for a second term. Rep. Phillip “I feel great. Every day we’re out Archuleta there working,” said Archuleta, 65, who campaigns in a motorized wheelchair. He said he has lost 110 pounds, dropping from 280 before his illness to about 170 today. “My leg was probably 30 pounds,” he said. Archuleta broke his right hip, wrist and femur in a fall in September 2013. An infection led to the amputation of his leg, he said. Former state representative Andy Nuñez of Hatch is running against Archuleta in House District 36, which covers part of Doña Ana County. Nuñez, 78, represented the district for 12 years, mostly as a Democrat. He switched to independent in 2011, then lost his re-election bid in 2012 to Archuleta. Now Nuñez is a Republican, his third political party in three years. Nuñez said in an interview that he wants to make New Mexico a right-to-work state, meaning people could not be compelled to join unions. This is a new

Ousted behavioral health provider sues state health officials The Associated Press

LAS CRUCES — A Las Cruces behavioral health care provider that closed last year filed a lawsuit Friday against state health officials over suspended Medicaid payments. Southwest Counseling Center Inc. names the New Mexico Human Services Department in its suit, the Las Cruces Sun-News reported. The nonprofit argues in court documents that its due process rights were violated when the state indefinitely froze payments in June 2013 without a hearing. Attorneys argue Human Services didn’t follow its own internal guidelines for Medicaid fraud investigations and improperly hid records related to the allegations. The provider went on to lose more than $1.3 million in funding and had to shutter. Southwest Counseling also is naming the state Attorney General’s Office in the suit. The provider says the office’s investigation also violates its due process. The nonprofit is seeking unspecified damages, costs and attorney fees. Human Services Department officials said Friday that they had yet to be served with the lawsuit. In June 2013, the department halted payments to 15 nonprofits that provide mental health and substance abuse services after an audit found what the agency said was a high rate of billing problems and possible mismanagement. The agency decided last year to shift $7.5 million within its budget to cover startup costs of Arizona companies assigned to take over New Mexico behavioral health providers under investigation. The agency moved money from another part of its budget that pays for a broad range of expenses, including medical and behavioral health care for Medicaid recipients and some administrative costs of the program. Medicaid provides health care for a fourth of the state’s population.

FUNERAL SERVICES & MEMORIALS

ELIZABETH W. "BETSY" KIDDY Elizabeth W. "Betsy" Kiddy, 56, of Reading, passed away quietly on Monday, September 29, surrounded by her husband Greg, and Betsy’s immediate family. Dr. Kiddy received her doctorate in Latin American Studies from the University of New Mexico and her bachelor’s degree in music composition from Hamilton College. As professor of history and director of Latin American and Caribbean Studies at Albright College, in Reading, she joined the College’s faculty in 2001 and earned a reputation as a dedicated teacher, gifted scholar and devoted colleague. Fluent in Portuguese and conversant in Spanish, she studied and taught Brazilian and Latin American history, women, gender and family studies in Latin America, ritual studies, myth and folktale, and the African diaspora. Frequent travel to Brazil to conduct research resulted in numerous publications including her book, Blacks of the Rosary: Memory and History in Minas Gerais, Brazil. Dr. Kiddy’s most recent scholarship examines the cultural and environmental history of the people living along the 2000 mile São Francisco River. Betsy Kiddy loved music, especially Brazilian jazz and samba. Likewise, she adored dance. Once she found the Brazilian martial art of capoeira, Betsy’s heart never left that magnificent nation. In 1990, Betsy met her future husband and best friend, Greg Kiddy, in Santa Fe, NM. Soon after they married in 1991, Betsy and Greg traveled almost every year to Brazil researching, learning, and enjoying life. Born in Kingston, New York, Betsy was raised in Westchester County, New York. Besides her husband, Betsy Kiddy is survived by her parents, Tony and Harriet Winchell of Kennett Square; her sister, Susan Winchell of Silver Spring, Maryland; her brother, David Winchell of Port Jefferson, New York, and her youngest brother and sister-in-law, Thomas & Lisa Winchell of Canton, Massachusetts, and their sons-our three nephews, Ethan, Calvin, and Dylan. A memorial service will be held to remember Dr. Kiddy on Sunday, November 9th at the Albright College Chapel at 10:00 a.m. followed by an informal reception. Betsy’s remains will be interred at the family burial plot in her beloved Adirondack Mountains of New York, and near the São Francisco River, Brazil. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be to Albright College to support the Betsy Kiddy Student Travel Fund which will help promote the travel of Albright students to Latin America. Contributions should be sent to Albright College, Office of Development, 13th & Bern Streets, Reading, PA 19612-5234. Edward J. Kuhn Funeral Home, Inc., West Reading is in charge of arrangements.

EUTILIA MARTINEZ ALARID February 5, 1914 - October 19, 2014 "Do not let your hearts be troubled, and do not let them be afraid. You heard me say to you, ’I am going away, and I am coming to you.’ If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father, because the Father is greater than I." John 14:27-28. Eutilia Martinez Alarid, of Santa Fe, passed away peacefully in her home on Sunday, October 19th, 2014 after 100 beautiful years of life. Those whose lives were touched by her kind and nurturing spirit will always remember her profound faith in God, compassionate heart and playful sense of humor. Tila was born in the small town of Cieneguilla, New Mexico to Candido Martinez and Eliza Suazo. At only 4 years old, she and her young sister Ignacita were orphaned by the flu epidemic of 1918 that claimed her parents and baby brother Juanito. Tila was raised by her uncle Braulio and his wife Delfina, and then by the Sisters of Charity in St. Vincent’s Orphanage of Santa Fe. At the age of 14, she joined the Dominican Sisters who had inspired her as teachers at her school in Peñasco. She relocated to Marywood, Michigan and dedicated herself to performing charitable works as a nun, Sister Grace Imelde, and was given an assignment as an elementary school teacher. In 1937, at the age of 23, Tila chose to leave the convent but continued to find guidance and inspiration from her faith and through the Dominican Sisters with whom she became lifelong friends. Determined to continue her assignment as an educator of children, she went on to attend UCLA, Highlands University and UNM, and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Education. In 1941, she met the love of her life, Henry Alarid of Santa Fe, and they raised four beautiful children together. She continued her work as an educator and retired after 45 years in both parochial and public schools, and then continued on as a Catechism teacher at her parish, Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church. Tila was an active member of the Third Order of St. Francis and devoted her time at the Blessed Sacrament Chapel. She was guided by her faith in God through the passing of her husband, Henry, her son, Teddy, and her sister, Ignacita Martinez Quintana. Tila is survived by her three daughters, Elizabeth, Cecilia and Teresa; her grandsons Daniel and Joseph; and her sister’s children Eliza, Josephine, Candido, Ramona, Tila and Dolly, and their families. Eutilia once wrote, "We go along living our lives coping with struggles, sorrows, and disappointments. We are finally free from these, and by the grace of God we live our lives with peace, enjoyment, contentment, and satisfaction with whatever involvement we have undertaken and committed ourselves to do. I am grateful to God for my faith, loving family, caring friends, and for the many students whose lives touched mine." Visitation will be held on Sunday, October 26 at 4 p.m. at Berardinelli Funeral Home, and a rosary will be recited afterward at 5 p.m. Funeral services will be held on Monday, October 27 at Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church at 11 a.m. Burial services will be conducted at the National Cemetery immediately afterward. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Third Order of St. Francis at PO Box 6772, Santa Fe NM 87502.

And when he turns to smile, place a kiss upon his cheek and hold him for a while. Because remembering him is easy, we do it everyday, but there’s an ache within our hearts, that will never go away. One year has passed and we miss you more everyday. We love you Forever! Love Rafaelita and your loving family

MYRTLE ELLIOTT

KENNETH P. TRUSE Our dearest, beloved Ken passed away peacefully at his home just before dawn on Tuesday, October 14, 2014. Ken was a lively and beautiful soul who embodied joy, love and integrity even during his 6 year fight against prostate cancer. His passions were dance, music, food, and travel. Born on March 8, 1946 in Chicago, Ken graduated suma cum laude from Du Paul University in Chicago in 1968, with a degree in English Literature. He received a MA in English Literature in 1969 from the University of Wisconsin-Madison and in 1973 Ken earned his second MA in Film Studies at the University of Iowa. He taught and worked on various fellowships over the years as well as wrote several children’s stories. In 1980 he and his family moved to Santa Fe. He became the founder and President of Advantage Financial Services, where he demonstrated a talent for sales in life and health insurance but also a deep concern for the well being of his clients. Ken was a star on the dance floor and was regularly seen dancing on the Plaza and dance events around town. In addition to his beloved daughter, Kristin Truse, his son-in-law, Enrico Ramirez-Ruiz, his grandchildren, Carlo and Eva Ramirez-Truse, his loving life-partner, Georgia Cleverley, his former wife, Susan Shellar and his brother, Gerard Trusiewicz, Ken leaves many who will deeply miss him. At Ken’s request, no Service will be held but all are invited to a CELEBRATION OF HIS LIFE on Saturday, November 15, 2014 from 5:30 PM - 10:00 PM, at Quail Run, 3101 Old Pecos Trail Santa Fe, NM. During the Celebration of Life, a brief memorial will be held from 6:30 PM to 7:00 PM.

She brought joy to everyone that knew her. Myrtle’s life will be carried on through the love she shared with her family and the beautiful memories that are kept deep within our hearts. She is survived by 5 children, 6 grandchildren, 7 great grandchildren and 2 dogs that were nuts about her. Memorial services will be held in November in Santa Fe.

Lala G. Martinez, 76, passed away at home, peacefully on October 23, with her loyal husband of 52 years, Eleuterio J. ("EJ" Martinez) at her side. Lala is preceded in death by her parents, Lazaro and Lola Garcia, younger sister, Annie, and nephew Eugene Mondragon. She is survived by Eleuterio and children David, Anna, and Vince and their spouses Michele, Mark, and Susan, respectively. She will be terribly missed by all, including her grandchildren Ryan, Matthew, Sara, Nina, Claire, Garrett and Logan. She leaves behind her sister Grace, Therese, and younger brother, Larry, and their families. The Martinez Family would like to thank Dr. Thomas Kravitz, the wonderful staff at Ambercare and Caregiver, Ester Lopez. Lala was an educator, a pioneer in childhood development, with over 33 years in the Santa Fe Public School system, most recently at Kaune Elementary School. After retirement, she worked as a team lead in Language Proficiency testing for the schools, and spent countless hours tutoring children who needed extra help. She taught hundreds of children not only how to read, but how to deal with life’s challenges, and instill a hope for a better life, founded with furthering their education. Lala spent her time as a lector at St. Francis Basilica, and volunteered with St. Vincent de Paul, helping to determine how donated funds could help those in need. She was a devout Catholic, and a committed and devoted mother, sister and grandmother. Lala had a penchant for making lifelong, loyal friends, whether they be from her career in education or from her philanthropies, or proximity in our neighborhood. We would have visitors who had crossed paths with Mom, only for them to say what positive influences she had on them in a very short period of time. Lala, born August 28, 1938 in Mora, New Mexico, received her high school diploma from St. Gertrude’s in Mora, her undergraduate degree in English from Loretto Heights in Denver, CO, and her Masters in Bilingual Education from Highland’s University in Las Vegas, NM. Our dear, sweet mother, wife, grandmother, sister, aunt, Godparent, and loyal friend will be so incredibly missed. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made for a scholarship in the name and honor of Lala Martinez. (Checks payable to "Back to our Roots" Education Scholarship) at 1023 West Houghton Street; Santa Fe, NM 87505. A Rosary will be held on Monday, October 27, 2014 at 6:30 pm at Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi. A Mass of Christian Burial will be held on Tuesday, October 28, 2014 at 10 am at Cathedral Basilica of St. Francis of Assisi. Burial will follow at Rosario Cemetery.

Some plural marriages were designed to seal the man to the woman for eternity only, and not life and eternity as Mormons believe, the article says. Those types of marriages didn’t seem to involve sex. Little is known about Smith’s marriages to the already-married women, the article says.

When Latter-day Saints trekked cross-country to Utah in 1847, nearly 200 men and more than 500 women were in plural marriage, it says. “Difficult as it was, the introduction of plural marriage in Nauvoo did indeed ‘raise up seed’ unto God,” the article says. “A substantial number of today’s members descend through faithful Latter-day Saints who practiced plural marriage.”

Cosplayers: Costumes take time to make Continued from Page C-1 collectible toys and plush Pokemons. There also were plenty of authors, celebrities and artists with booths. The cosplayers often stopped for photo ops or to compliment a fellow attendee’s delicately made costume. A fair amount of time was spent adjusting, gluing, stitching or otherwise maintaining costumes during the event, which continues Sunday. When two characters from the same fictional universe would spot each other — as was the case for 15-year-old Nic Packard and 7-year-old Samuel Marty, who both were characters from the superhero show The Arrow — they seemed bound by law to replay scenes from the source material. They were plenty of people in simple one- or two-piece costumes, such as those dressed as Link in green tunics from The Legend of Zelda video game series. A few cosplayers wore orange jumpsuits as characters from the Dragon Ball Z universe. But there also were people like Madison Vazquez, 19, who entered the lobby wearing a green wig, black angel wings, a black corset, black high heels and a huge, knobby scythe. She was dressed as Death Master from the anime Black Rock Shooter, and although most of the Comic Con-goers didn’t recognize her character, they still happily paid compliments to her intricate costume. Michael Barke went as The Silence, a character from the British sci-fi show Doctor Who. At 6-foot-8, he already towered over most of the crowd, but the plastic, malformed head

Budget woes shut planetarium Santa Fe Community College has closed its 75-seat planetarium for the remainder of the school year in a costcutting measure that will save $50,000 to $75,000. The planetarium will remain available for student use. This summer, the college announced it was facing an unexpected $5 million shortfall that would require budget cuts — including salary reductions — and a $5 per credit increase in tuition starting in January. The school, which opened in 1983, has a $35 million operational budget.

Community: Summit set for December Continued from Page C-1 Sweeney Elementary School. Dominguez was able to lead the City Council in adopting ordinances that addressed issues on the south side, including architectural guidelines, restrictions on liquor sales and advertising, and the density of businesses that sell alcohol. The city also adopted incentives to encourage grocery stores, health clubs and health care clinics to locate on the south side. That was accompanied by a $11.4 million allocation for Airport Road improvements, including infrastructure for the South West Area Node park, also known as the SWAN park, that is being developed at the west end of Jaguar Drive and westward toward N.M. 599. Good timing also emerged in the form of Andrew Black, a native Santa Fean, part-time minister and staff member in the office of U.S. Sen. Martin Heinrich who took interest and began to engage with residents to become more active in their community. Soon, U.S. Rep. Ben Ray Luján, a dozen nonprofit and community organizations, and faith leaders had enlisted to stimulate a grass-roots process of community empowerment. In late 2013, the “Quality of Life Initiative” was created during a two-day event that included workshops and a community fiesta. The event, attended by hundreds of participants, culminated with the ratification of a three-prong agenda addressing youth issues, transportation/walkability, health and food. The efforts at building political power were celebrated at a block party two weeks ago at Zona del Sol. In the past year, a team led by Dominguez and Black has continued to engage community members through small gatherings and trips to Las Cruces to learn about the “empowerment congress” concept, which helps to identify and support community leaders. Bridget Wolf, a resident and one of the emerging community members who has joined the Quality of Life Initiative steering committee, said she has become more involved than she expected to be. “In the past, I just thought, ‘I can’t do anything about it,’ but now that I’m seeing that there’s this steering committee and there’s Carmichael and Andrew Black and Heinrich’s office, I’m

Police seek Duke City bank robber ALBUQUERQUE — Authorities in Albuquerque say a woman dressed camouflage robbed a bank Saturday afternoon. FBI spokesman Frank Fisher says the female robber walked up to a Bank of Albuquerque inside an Albertsons supermarket around 12:40 p.m. and gave a teller a note demanding money. The woman was wearing a green camouflage uniform and a matching baseball cap. She also had on black gloves, sunglasses and was carrying a big black bag. The teller complied and gave her an undisclosed amount of money. She was seen walking out the store’s northeast door. Witnesses describe her as between 25 and 30 years old, approximately 5-foot-8 and heavy-set with short hair. Anyone with information is asked to call the FBI at 889-1300.

starting to be cautiously super optimistic. I’m willing to put my time and effort into trying to see if we can do something in our community,” she said. Like many who are active in their communities, Wolf was worried that schoolchildren were walking in the streets because of the tall plants that were growing along walkways and the few sidewalks in the area. She started a group called Sidewalk Angels, whose members would remove unwanted vegetation, and she gives credit to the city crew members who helped their efforts. “The are actually taking it upon themselves to do it, and I didn’t know that before, but everybody really cares,” she said. Now the serious work of the Quality of Life Initiative is beginning, and organizers are busy with the often tedious job of talking about issues and recruiting people to volunteer for what will be a daunting effort. Volunteers burn out, move away or lose interest. Dominguez is optimistic. “I’m happy to see constituents starting to really get involved in … this effort, and really helping to create and maintain some momentum. You can have events and get people involved and motivated. But to sustain that effort is really the tough part. I’m pretty pleased with what we’ve been able to do so far,” he said. As willing volunteers emerge, they are being invited to attend meetings and join the effort. So far, four women have agreed to join the steering committee headed by Dominguez and Black — Peggy Vasquez, who lives in Tierra Contenta; Naomi Bojorques-Flores, a community college student; Sherissa Silva, a

student; and Wolf. Bojorques-Flores was motivated by the emphasis on youth development and the prospect of availability of better food choices in the neighborhood. “When they were talking about bringing healthy food to the south side, it just interested me that now somebody was paying attention to this stuff,” she said. “There isn’t much healthy food if you drive down Airport Road.” Heinrich visited the south side last February and met with the Quality of Life Initiative committee and supported the use of federal grants for health activities, including a grant for the community health worker program. He has visited the south side to meet with residents and visit the new clinic for military veterans. Through the initiative’s effort, and by coincidence, some ground has been gained on improving life on the south side. Among the improvements: u The city decided to open the Southside Branch Library

from 1 to 5 p.m. Sundays. Previously, it had been closed on Sundays. u The Southside Farmers Market ran through the summer on Tuesdays at the Santa Fe Place mall. u The Santa Fe Food Policy Council prepared a food plan for the city and county, which includes improving access to healthy foods and growing more food locally. u A new, larger veterans clinic was opened in September. u La Familia Medical Center developed the REACH program (Racial and Ethnic Approach Community Health) at its south-side clinic in 2013. u La Familia also brought in experts in “walkability” and made recommendations for improving the area for walkers and cyclists, and identified critical problems, such as the lack of crosswalks at Capital High School. u The Santa Fe Community College has created a community health worker training program. The “promotoras” are trained in community engagement and health coaching, and are especially important in reaching immigrants. u Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center announced in January that it would build a $7 million southside medical center for pediatrics, primary care and urgent care. The next significant event in the evolution of the south side will be the second annual Empowerment Summit on Dec. 5 and 6 at a location to be determined. Editor’s Note: The writer was a contract facilitator for a cityfunded neighborhood dialogue process in 2012 to identify concerns in the south side.

Credit: New bill requires homes to be more efficient Continued from Page C-1 Builders who spoke at Thursday’s Revenue Stabilization and Tax Policy Committee said changes to the sustainable building tax credit will create jobs and save homeowners and commercial building owners money for years through lower energy and water costs. The credit currently is available to homes that are at least 40 percent more energy efficient than a standard home. The new bill could require eligible homes to be even more efficient. The energy savings can be reached in a variety of ways, including through use of the latest efficient boilers and heating systems, increased insulation and better building design. Wirth, Trujillo and homebuilders hope the Legislature also will approve giving the tax credit for homes and offices built with water-saving measures such as low-flow washing machines and shower heads, or rainwater catchment systems. Such measures, already required in new homes by some cities such as Santa Fe, could save an average home 23,944 gallons of water a year. The new bill will ask for some of the tax credit to be set aside specifically for manufactured homes that meet energy- and water-saving requirements, said Mark Duran, executive director of the New Mexico Manufactured Housing Association. Wirth said he hopes the final draft of the bill will be ready to present to the committee for review in December. Ken Hughes, who manages the sustainable building tax credits through the New Mexico Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department, said in a phone interview that he has 143 pending applications from builders or homeowners for the tax credits. On average, he said, singlefamily homeowners have averaged $9,983 in sustainable building tax credits, which are applied against their income taxes. The credit can be spread out over seven years or transferred. Multifamily developments have averaged $7,719 in sustainable building tax credits. Commercial buildings have averaged more than $95,000 in tax credits. A project at St. John’s College and the Stage Coach Apartments on Cerrillos Road are examples of commercial developments that benefited from the sustainable building tax credit. Energy efficiency has to be proven before the credit is available. Hughes said he has seen a steady increase in applications for the tax credit. Garcia told the committee that only 1,450 new home construction permits were requested in the Albuquerque metropolitan area last year, compared to a peak of 6,309 in 2007. But of the permits issued last year, 74 percent were for “green” homes that qualified for the sustainable building tax credit, he said. “The economy tanked, but those still building built better homes that save the homeowner money in the long run,” he said.

Philmont to buy historic ranch The Associated Press

CIMARRON — The Philmont Scout Ranch has agreed to purchase the Cimarroncita Historic Ranch Retreat and hopes to start working on the property in early January. Boy Scouts of America’s executive board approved the purchase during an Oct. 15 board meeting in Dallas, the Sangre de Cristo Chronicle reported. Cimarroncita borders Philmont and adds 2,678 acres

to Philmont’s approximately 130,000 acres. The purchase will enable Philmont to accommodate an additional 800 to 1,000 participants, Philmont general manager John Clark said. Cimarroncita will be used for Philmont’s camping operations and will also house Philmont Training Center programs. Clark said Philmont hopes to use Cimarroncita for programming as early as summer 2015. Philmont will not rename

Cimarroncita and is taking a “hard look” at ways to preserve the ranch’s historic structures, Clark said. Cimarroncita was established as an all-girls overnight camp in 1931 by Minnette Thompson, a teacher from Houston, according to a 2006 Albuquerque Journal article. The camp was known as one of the most prestigious overnight camps in the Southwest until its closed in 1995. Most of its campers came from Texas’ major cities.

Campaign: GOP targets seat Continued from Page C-1 measure for Nuñez but not for the state. It was debated 35 years ago in the Legislature. His push for a right-towork law coincides with New Mexico being passed over for a $5 billion Tesla Motors battery factory. Tesla chose Nevada, a right-to-work state. But California, where Tesla’s assembly plant is located, allows for unions that can require workers to join. Archuleta opposes making New Mexico a right-to-work state. He says the state’s focus should be on creating better schools and jobs that pay enough for parents to send their kids to college without

accumulating crushing debt. Nuñez for two years carried a bill to repeal a law enabling New Mexico residents to obtain a state driver’s license without providing proof of immigration status. That measure also is one of Republican Gov. Susana Martinez’s initiatives. Archuleta supports keeping the existing driver’s license law. He said it improves public safety because licensed drivers pass tests and are listed in police databases. Archuleta’s seat is one that Republicans and their political committees have targeted. Democrats control the House of Representatives, 37-33, but the GOP says it has a chance of becoming the majority party

Tourism office hires PR manager The city of Santa Fe’s tourism agency has hired a new public relations manager. TOURISM Santa Fe announced Friday that John Feins, a public relations and marketing professional with 20 years of experience in entertainment, publishing, technology and financial services, will fill the new position.

taking away recess or having misbehaving children write sentences. They send teachers to seminars on behavior-modification based classroom strategies that “work” only with kids who would be well-behaved without them. The weaknesses inherent in public school discipline policy virtually guarantee that far too many kids will end up being diagnosed as having “disorders” of one sort or another and given potentially risky psychiatric medications. A 2004 study by the Thomas B. Fordham Institute found that more than 1 in 4 public school teachers put their children in private schools. At the time, that was more than twice the figure for all parents. One of the top three reasons cited by these teachers was better discipline policies. Neither of the two national teachers’ unions would comment on the study. Fancy that. No one has more investment in classroom discipline than a teacher. Public school teachers are highly likely to opt out of public education for their own kids, in order that they might be disciplined more effectively. It’s time the educrats put those two facts together. Visit family psychologist John Rosemond’s website at www.johnrosemond.com.

By Rachel Vail Special to The Washington Post

ecause my job is writing books for, about and from the perspectives of young teens, I stay in close touch with people who are in middle and high school. I also started writing when memories of painfully awkward cafeteria snubs and flirtations were still hideously fresh, so I never got to experience the blissful amnesia about adolescence that is the well-earned compensation for achy knees. On the other hand, I have two kids of my own and the emerging wrinkles to prove it. So I come to you, my fellow parents, in a spirit of camaraderie, to share both our most common assumptions and the adamant refutations of them that I’ve collected along the way: They hate us. Hate is a strong word. Usually, our teens are merely mortally embarrassed by us. They fear they are irreversibly like us, and/ or that our weirdness reflects badly on them right when they don’t have much coolness to spare. Also, they often hate how much they need and love us, exactly when they want to not. Other times they actually do just hate us. They never listen. They occasionally do. They often don’t do what we tell them to, but that’s not the same as not listening. They are too busy asserting their independence or possibly playing GTA V. Or, they didn’t hear us! (Sure.) But then they’ll hear much more than we realize we’re saying. What imprints on them most indelibly, like a tattoo they better not get, is what we communicate about who they are. It’s a delicate dance, encouraging them to reach their potential and pick up their socks, yet not labeling them as lazy, stupid, rude or worse. They don’t communicate. They may no longer clamber onto our laps to babble enthusiastically about their day, but they still want to connect as much (though usually not at the

same time) as we do. Car rides are good for this, with the lack of eye contact and the enforced togetherness. Another good spur is to ask for their help or opinion, and then stay quiet and receptive while they respond. It’s not easy, putting down your phone and fully attending — but the payoff is huge. Their insightful analysis may surprise you. It’s also a precious chance to hear how they think. But mostly it’s just a kind, generous thing to do. Think about how deeply good it feels to have somebody truly listen to you. Plus, if you model being a genuine and respectful listener, your teen might eventually learn to reciprocate. You went through similar things as a teen, so you have good advice to share.

OK, you clearly survived your teen years, not that long ago. But if you force yourself to remember in detail the anguish of a specific horrible event from then, you’ll recall that clueless-adult-imposed solutions are maddening, not helpful. But you’re not clueless the way those adults were? Fine. What if you came home today in a state — after the worst imaginable day of work, needing simply to rant and complain — and your confidant said something like, “Well it’s not the end of the world”? Or told you, “Here’s how to solve the problem.” … Would you be comforted? A broken heart or a rising panic feels awful no matter your age or what caused it. Often a loving listener is all that’s needed. Not advice. Definitely

Kid’s take on movies ‘The Book of Life’ By Katherine S. KIDS FIRST! critic

I love this movie. It’s a terrific, animated family film full of adventure. It’s a visual spectacular with fantastic sets, costumes and intriguing characters. And it has a great positive message. The movie begins with a museum tour guide telling her field-trip students about The Book of Life. Her voice is played by Christina Applegate who serves as narrator throughout, which is especially helpful with all the flashback and flash-forward scenes. In the book, it starts with a flashback to three children. Maria, Manolo and Joaquin are childhood best friends, living in San Angel, the “center of the world” in Mexico, in the Land of the Living (aka Earth). As they grow up, we see the two grown men compete for Maria’s affec-

tion. The story revolves around the celebration of the Day of the Dead, when Mexicans celebrate their loved ones who have passed away. As legend has it, as long as they are beloved, they live in the Land of the Remembered. For those not remembered well, they live in the Land of the Forgotten. The two rulers of these two lands, Meurta and Xibalba, make a wager on which boy will marry Maria. The winner gets to rule the Land of the Remembered. Great adventure and drama ensues as Manolo and Joaquin, voiced by Diego Luna and Channing Tatum, compete to win Maria’s heart and fend off the pressures from their families’ expectations, while saving their hometown. Joaquin’s father was a war hero and Manolo comes from a long line of bullfighters, though he prefers to sing and play guitar. My favorite part is when Manolo visits the Land of the Remembered and is reunited with

his mother as well as his grandfather and great grandfather, both matador heroes who were killed. He learns of their common musical interests, too, and what his mother really wanted him to be. This film has a terrific message: To never stop fighting for what you believe in, to follow your own dreams and be true to your heart. The music throughout the

not minimizing condescension. Maybe some ice cream straight from the container, though. They will always be like this. It’s the terrifying thought that strikes smack in the middle of your teen’s worst behavior: This is the kind of person my child has become. I have failed at the most important job of my life because my kid is rude, a failure, a nasty jerk, a selfish clod; just like her other parent — or worse, just like ME. And I am worse than this foul thing I’ve reared, because who raises a beast like this? But just as she will not always win the game, or get the lead or an A, or stick up for the kid who’s being teased on the playground the way she did so naturally that time — this horrible persona won’t be the lasting totality, either. We’re all so complex. He is not simply his best self or his worst. She is neither the baby she was nor the adult she’ll eventually be. Find times amid the clamorous whirl of homework and overfilled schedules and inevitable arguments to laugh with your teens; they’re increasingly funny and sweet, and will show it when they can relax around you. Remind them about the awesome aspects of their personalities and review your Lamaze breathing to get through the rest. Rachel Vail is an author of children’s and young adult books. Her most recent work is Unfriended, released in September.

movie is awesome and helps tell Manolo’s story, especially with the songs “I Will Wait” and “The Apology Song.” The three sets are very distinctive and perfect for each of the three realms: San Angel is a beautiful town in the present day. The Land of Remembered is a colorful, vibrant, happy place, and the Land of the Forgotten is dull, gray and has spiky architecture. I really enjoyed the animation. The characters are wood-like with joints like Pinocchio. The boys have broad shoulders and super skinny legs. Maria and the other girls have skinny waists, full Mexican skirts and dramatic hair and eyes. While I love it in 3-D, the animation is so good it will be great without it. This is an all-around great family film. I recommend it for families with kids ages 7 to 18. There are some intense bullfighting scenes, slightly scary music and fights in the Land of the Forgotten. I give this film a 4.5 out of 5 stars. The Book of Life is in theaters now.

The Jean Cocteau Cinema will screen Earth 2, a sci-fi drama shot around New Mexico and at Garson Studios 20 years ago. It aired for one season on NBC in 1994-95. For many local film crews, a city news release says, it was their first chance to work on a large production, and some say the show helped lay the groundwork for the state’s current film incentives. It also featured local actors. The pilot will screen at 6 p.m. Nov. 8. Mayor Javier Gonzales will introduce the film. Jean Cocteau owner and local author George R.R. Martin will present the screening for free. Earth 2 executive producer Michael Duggan was recently back in the state to produce Stanistan, a dramedy set in a U.S. Embassy in the Middle East. USA network funded the pilot and may pick it up for a full season.

Giants Panda-monium sinks Royals

Pick ends Miss. bid to stay unbeaten

Bats come alive in 5th, tie Series at 2-2 By Ronald Blum The Associated Press

Giants fans cheer Saturday in San Francisco. DAVID J. PHILLIP/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO — Down three runs and in danger of getting pushed Giants 11 to the World Royals 4 Series brink, Pablo Sandoval and the San Francisco Giants

raised up some Panda-monium. Sandoval’s single set up the tying run in the fifth inning and the 2012 Series MVP followed with a go-ahead, two-run single in the sixth that sent the Giants surging past the Kansas City Royals 11-4 Saturday night at pulsating AT&T Park. Hunter Pence, eyes ablaze, had three hits, three RBIs and a nifty sliding catch in the ninth inning, and Joe Panik hit a tworun double in a four-run seventh.

San Francisco piled on 16 hits in a game that took exactly 4 hours. The Series is tied at two games apiece, ensuring the title will be decided at Kansas City’s Kauffman Stadium next week. Madison Bumgarner tries to put the Giants ahead Sunday night when he starts against Royals ace James Shields in a rematch of the opener, won by the Giants 7-1.

Dispute keys Española to title Lady Sundevils sweep Los Alamos for District 2AAAAA championship By James Barron The New Mexican

ESPAÑOLA he to-do list for the Española Valley Lady Sundevils this volleyball season just got one item shorter. Cross “District 2AAAAA championship” off the list. But that’s just one of four goals the Lady Sundevils set for themselves this fall. There’s high seed for the Class AAAAA State Tournament, then performing to expectations in pool play, and finally an appearance in the state semifinals. For now, Española will revel in the Española 3 spoils of a second straight Los Alamos 0 regular-season district title after dispatching the former queens of the district Los Alamos by a 25-19, 25-15, 25-22 count in Edward Medina Gymnasium on Saturday night. What the Lady Sundevils (15-3 overall, 6-0 2AAAAA) displayed against the Lady Hilltoppers, who won the district five consecutive seasons before relinquishing the crown to Española last season, was something they have worked the past four years toward — poise. “It’s a process you have to go through to be a great team,” said Damon Salazar, the Lady Sundevils head coach. “I remember [the 2006 team, which reached the AAAA finals], they went to state the year before and they didn’t play very well. But it gives you that desire and it gives you that sense that we let some kids down [in 2013, when Española lost in the quarterfinals].” Game 3 was everything Española has struggled to be, even as late as last year. Los Alamos (9-9, 4-2) held a 20-16 lead and had the serve when chaos reigned. Initially, libero Ashlynn Trujillo was set to serve, but quickly realized she was not in rotation to do so. So she slipped off the court via the service line and Kylee Pearl took her place. While Pearl served and it led to a Kaitlyn Romero kill for Española, the head referee noticed that Trujillo did not leave the court properly. She was supposed to leave in between the 10-foot and 30-foot line, and he called Los Alamos for a delay of game and a timeout. That led Los Alamos head coach Sharleen Espinoza to ask for an explanation and play stopped for almost five minutes as she and team captain Samantha Melton talked with the referee about the infraction. All the while, the Lady Sundevils grew impatient, then

BATON ROUGE, La. — Bo Wallace was on the cusp of prolonging No. 3 Mississippi’s bid for an unbeaten season until LSU safety Ronald Martin got in the way. Wallace’s pass was intercepted by Martin at the 1 with 2 seconds No. 24 LSU 10 left, and the RebNo. 3 Miss. 7 els fell 10-7 to the 24th-ranked Tigers on Saturday night. Ole Miss was lining up for a potential tying field goal from 42 yards, but was called for delay of game. So the Rebels decided to run a play instead and Wallace threw his first interception in a Southeastern Conference game this season. Soon after, fans were streaming onto the Tiger Stadium field. Leonard Fournette ran for 113 yards, and LSU (7-2, 3-2) finished with 264 yards rushing against defense that came in allowing 97.1 per game. Anthony Jennings’ short touchdown pass to tight end Logan Stokes gave LSU the lead late in the fourth quarter. Mississippi (7-1, 4-1) led most of the way, but mainly because LSU turned the ball over four times and missed a short field goal. Playing less than 24 hours after coach Les Miles’ 91-year-old mother died, the Tigers played with enough passion and confidence on both sides of the ball to overcome their mistakes and put a dent in the Rebels’ national title hopes. The Tigers’ defense, buoyed by the deafening roars of the Death Valley record-tying crowd of 102,321, largely stifled Wallace and the Rebels’ offense that was averaging 35.4 points. Wallace was 14 of 33 for 176 yards

While driving home from practice on Friday night, brothers Zackery and Xavier Vigil agreed that one of these days it sure would Horsemen 48 be cool if the Hope Christian 7 local newspaper ran a headline touting their exploits in a Horsemen victory. On Saturday afternoon, they provided plenty of material to

work with. The siblings combined to score six of their team’s seven touchdowns, leading the St. Michael’s football team to a 48-7 rout of visiting Albuquerque Hope Christian in a District 4AAAA game at the Christian Brothers Athletic Complex. Older by 18 months, Zackery found the end zone on an 82-yard touchdown catch, a 19-yard fumble recovery and an 85-yard interception return. Two grades below his brother, sophomore Xavier struck pay dirt on a 1-yard run, 19-yard catch and 70-yard interception. “Maybe the headline would be

something about the Vigil bros, how all we wanted to do was go out and compete against one another and make something happen,” Xavier Vigil said. “It’s always a competition between me and my brother, but it just felt good for both of us to succeed to day in a big game.” Now 7-1 overall and 2-0 in district play, the Horsemen head into the home stretch of the regular season in perfect position for a 4AAAA title and a top-two seed in the state playoffs. Lying in wait are a road trip on Halloween night at Portales (4-4, 1-1) and home in the regular season finale against No. 2 Ruidoso (8-1,

WASHINGTON — The Associated Press will periodically look at the changing landscape of the NBA during the upcoming season from three perspectives: A player’s viewpoint, from the bench, and from the front office. An interview with veteran forward Paul Pierce of the Washington Wizards tips Paul Pierce off the series: When Paul Pierce watched the Washington Wizards in last season’s playoffs, he saw plenty of talent and potential. He also saw some mistakes. The Wizards needed something. Weeks later, he decided they needed … him. There have been more than 500 transactions involving NBA players since the San Antonio Spurs ended last season hoisting the Larry O’Brien Trophy. Most of those transactions were barely noticed, hardly creating a ripple in the league’s power structure. But others — like Pierce signing with the Wizards in July — figure to have a significant impact on the 2014-

PREP ROUNDUP

S. F. Prep wins volleyball district title The New Mexican

A district championship is cause for celebration. In the case of the Santa Fe Preparatory volleyball team, the celebration will have to wait. Prep 3 With Saturday’s sweep of visiting Dulce 1 Dulce, the Blue Griffins (12-6 overall, 6-0 in District 2AAA) wrapped up the regular season district title and earned homecourt advantage in the 2AAA tournament

championship match on Nov. 7. “The players are happy, but they’re not celebrating yet because they know there’s a lot of work still to be done,” said Kiran Bhakta, Prep head coach. “This is just the start.” The Blue Griffins won by scores of 25-14, 25-11, 25-17, making quick work of the Lady Hawks as both teams head into the final week of the regular season. Prep finishes things out with a home match Tuesday against Pecos — its annual Dig Pink Night — before a game at the Chavez Center later in the week

against Desert Academy. After that, the district tournament and then the state tournament. Saturday’s win was Prep’s 10th straight. It was made possible by 12 service aces and seven blocks. Leading the way was Joy Maran with seven kills and three blocks, and nine kills from team co-captain Desiray Anderson. She also had eight assists, five digs and a block. With a team-high 12 digs was Elena Wirth, the team’s other captain. She added three aces.

starting to understand their roles and perform when the moment arises, even if the end result isn’t a kill. “Every little bit matters,” Salazar said.”We get them just enough out of system, and we ended up hitting balls that [the Lady Hilltoppers] touched but they ended up hitting it out.” Los Alamos, meanwhile, struggled to win key points in Game 1 that could have given it much needed momentum. After trailing 16-10, the Lady Hilltoppers crept to within 20-19 on Sierra Foley’s kill and had momentum going their way. but Foley was called for a net violation, and Romero followed with a pair of kills and

Elana Salazar sealed the win in the opener with one of her 14 kills. Those were the kind of situations the Lady Hilltoppers excelled at during their five-peat. First-year head coach Charleen Espinoza, who was a part of those championship teams as an assistant, zeroed in on one missing ingredient. “That confidence in yourself is huge,” Espinoza said. “It is one of the biggest deciding factors in tight matches like these. If you go on the court ready to play hard and with that knowledge that you can beat the other team, that really does help out. And Española really has been doing that.”

Brothers: Vigils’ family rivalry keys victory Continued from Page D-1 3-0). To make headway against two of the tougher teams they will have faced all year, the Horsemen will likely need the sibling rivalry between the Vigils to reach a fevered pitch at least a couple more times. To look at the pair, it’s hard to imagine they’re related. A senior, Zackery stands 5-foot-7 and weighs about 150 pounds, a slender build accentuated by the fact that he wears a single digit — No. 3 — on his game jersey. He’s fast, vocal and isn’t afraid to be the most outspoken guy on or off the field. “Zack’s going to talk a little more, that’s for sure,” said Joey Fernandez, St. Michael’s head coach. “X is a little more reserved. He’ll say something, but if one of those two is going to speak out it’s going to be Zack.” Xavier’s tale of the tape has him at 5-10 and 192 pounds. He wears a Cobra Kai-style headband under his helmet, is more physical than fast, and carries the mantra of Mr. Tough by virtue of the tough-guy No. 44 that he wears.

“It’s always interesting having those two around,” Fernandez said. “They make practice interesting and they’re so competitive with each other that they’re always going all out during games.” Xavier’s 1-yard touchdown run with 2:08 remaining in the first quarter got the Horsemen on the board and snapped a scoreless tie. That kickstarted a scoring barrage as St. Michael’s scored 20 points in less than two minutes early in the second quarter, a spurt started by the only non-Vigil touchdown of the day when running back Nathanyal Leyba rumbled across from 1 yard out to make it 14-0. That was followed by Zackery’s 82-yard scoring reception, a beautiful pass fed to him over the middle by Isaac Chavez after the quarterback looked off the defense to his left, then fired back down the middle to a streaking Vigil who simply outran the secondary. Xavier got back into the act when he picked off Hope quarterback Caleb Meyer-Hagen and tightroped the sideline 70

yards for a score. While he says he hurdled a Huskies would-be tackler along the way (video evidence may not support that claim), he did lunge across the goal line for the first of what became three defensive touchdowns by the Horsemen. Zackery’s pick-6 came later in the quarter when he followed his fumble return for a score by intercepting Jordan Montoya. Catching the ball on the run as he made his way back toward the line of scrimmage, Vigil wove left, then right, then left again before blazing his way to the corner of the end zone. “It feels good to get out in the open like that,” he said. “Track got me faster than what I was last year. Once I get out in the open field I know I could beat a lot of the people that try to chase me.” As rewarding as it all ways, the older Vigil said his fumble return was even more fun.” Those don’t happen very often, but it’s one of those things the coaches always talk about — how we’re supposed to be in position and be ready for them

when the ball does come out,” he said. NOTES: The Horsemen have never lost to Hope, winning all seven meetings since the rivalry began in 2010. … St. Michael’s scored 41 points in the second quarter, forcing Hope (2-7, 0-3) into two punts, a fumble and three interceptions. … The Huskies’ only score came on a 96-yard interception return when Meyer-Hagen picked off a Chross Jaramillo pass and outran everyone else to cut the Horsemen lead to 27-7. … Saturday was homecoming for St. Michael’s. The students were treated to an early release because the entire second half was played with a running clock thanks to the 35-point mercy rule. … Joining the Horsemen on the sidelines was assistant coach Andrew Martinez, the team’s defensive coordinator for all but one year of Fernandez’s time as head coach. Restricted to a wheelchair, Martinez is taking this season off after breaking his leg and tearing knee ligaments in a fall at home in July. He had a second surgery last week after a significant setback, and Fernandez reminded his players to keep Martinez in their thoughts after the game.

Series: Giants manager pitches fit in third, team rallies for win Continued from Page D-1 Showcasing baseball at its exciting best, the game included a sprawling catch by Royals center fielder Jarrod Dyson that left a pair of divots, and the first use of expanded video review in Series history — which became a turning point. Jeff Kellogg’s safe call at second base was upheld on catcher Salvador Perez’s pickoff attempt of Joaquin Arias, helping the Giants build the pivotal rally. Four fans in the first row near the Giants dugout wore giant — of course — panda heads as they cheered on Sandoval, nicknamed Kung Fu Panda and a veteran of the team’s World Series titles in 2010 and ‘12. The switchhitter batted just .199 right-handed during the regular season but came up with his first two-hit game from that side of the plate since Aug. 25, emphatically tossing his bat after lining a single to center that put the Giants ahead. Lost in the torrent of runs was the earlier fit of pique by Giants manager Bruce Bochy, who threw his hat to the dugout floor when his infielders botched a third-inning grounder. The mood was different by the eighth, when former Journey singer Steve Perry sprinted to the front row of the second deck behind home plate and led the crowd of 43,066 in a sing-along of “When the Lights Go Down in the City.” The Series outlook seemed far differ-

ent in the third inning, when ominous, dark clouds formed over the bayside ballpark, and the Royals burst ahead 4-1 against Ryan Vogelsong with the help of the botched grounder. Orange-clad fans quieted, and there even were scattered boos. But Yusmiero Petit settled the NL champions with three innings of scoreless, two-hit relief to improve to 3-0 in the postseason, and 11 different Giants had hits. Three of the 10 Giants in the

No. 9 spot had hits; Petit singled to become the first Giants reliever to get a hit in the postseason in 78 years. Royals manager Ned Yost stayed with starter Jason Vargas into the fifth inning, removing him after Panik’s leadoff double. Royals relievers had been 7-0 in the postseason and in Game 3 pitched four hitless innings to preserve a 3-2 win. But Yost couldn’t get to his HDH triad of hard-throwing relievers: Kelvin

Herrera, Wade Davis and Greg Holland. Jason Frasor and Danny Duffy combined to allow the tying run in a two-run fifth. And Brandon Finnegan, the first player to appear in the College World Series and World Series in the same year, allowed Sandoval’s two-run single and Brandon Belt’s RBI’s single in the sixth. There was intermittent light rain in the early innings. Pence’s RBI forceout in the first gave the Giants a short-lived lead. Kansas City went ahead with a two-out four-run rally in the third with the help of two infield hits that gave the Royals 18 in the postseason, matching the total of all other teams combined. Eric Hosmer hit a slow tapper to the right side. Belt ranged far off first base to field it, and quickly looked to see if he could get a forceout at second. With no play there, Belt whirled around and tried to toss to Vogelsong. But the pitcher didn’t get to the bag cleanly, messed up his footwork and had no chance to prevent Hosmer from reaching with a tying single. Bochy slammed his cap to the dugout floor. Omar Infante grounded a two-run single up the middle for a 3-1 lead, making him 10 for 15 against Vogelsong, and Perez followed with a bloop single to short center for a 4-1 lead. Buster Posey cut the deficit in the bottom half with an RBI single, tying Barry Bonds’ team record of 21 career

postseason RBIs, and the Giants tied the score in the fifth. After Panik’s leadoff double, Frasor relieved with one out and Pence hit an RBI single that caused Frasor to throw up both arms in frustration. Duffy entered, Sandoval singled Pence to third, Duffy loaded the bases with a four-pitch walk to Belt and Juan Perez’s sacrifice fly made it 4-all. UP NEXT Royals: Shields has a 7.11 ERA this postseason, totaling 19 innings in four starts. Giants: Bumgarner is 3-1 with a 1.40 ERA in five postseason starts this year. PITCHERS AT THE PLATE Vargas became the first AL pitcher to bat twice in a Series inning since Boston’s Luis Tiant in the 1975 opener. … The previous Giants reliever to get a Series hit was Slick Castleman, according to STATS. MUSIC TO THEIR EARS Carlos Santana played “The StarSpangled Banner” on a guitar, joined by son Salvador Santana on keyboards. Just before that, the ceremonial first pitch was thrown — from the rubber — by Mo’ne Davis, the 13-year-old who this year became the first girl to pitch a shutout in the Little League World Series. Bryan Stow, the Giants fan who sustained a traumatic brain injury when he was beaten outside Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles in 2011, yelled “Play Ball!” Stow was in a wheelchair near the Giants dugout, flanked by pitcher Jeremy Affeldt and third-base coach Tim Flannery.

RANKINGS

Defense will be hard to find for playoff panel Committee releasing first results Tuesday night By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

If defense is what the College Football Playoff selection committee wants from its top teams, the 12-member panel is going to have a tough time filling out the front of its first rankings. A day after Southeastern Conference fans scoffed at Oregon’s tacklingoptional 59-41 victory against California, Mississippi State put up a similar performance against Kentucky on Saturday. Surely Florida State fans took note, too. The second-ranked Seminoles were jumped by the Bulldogs in the AP poll a few weeks ago and a come-frombehind victory against Notre Dame wasn’t enough for Florida State to take the top spot back from idle Mississippi State last week. While Jameis Winston has been

brilliant, the Seminoles’ defense is nowhere near what it was during their perfect championship run last year. The Bulldogs and Seminoles are the only remaining unbeaten teams from the Big Five conferences after Mississippi, the toughest team in the country to score against, lost for the first time. The third-ranked Rebels couldn’t muster enough offense in a 10-7 loss at LSU. Figure Florida State and Mississippi State to be at or near the top of the committee’s first top 25 when it comes out Tuesday night. The sixth-ranked Ducks should be up there, too, among the best teams with one loss, a group that now includes Ole Miss, along with Alabama, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Auburn and Kansas State, just to name a few. If anybody wants to take issue with Oregon’s defense, or Florida State’s, they’ll need to dock Mississippi State, too. Heisman Trophy contender Dak Prescott and Josh Robinson continued to churn out yards and points for the

Bulldogs on Saturday in Lexington, Kentucky— and they needed pretty much all of them in a 45-31 victory. The Wildcats put up 504 yards, 401 through the air. The SEC is still the most powerful conference, but defense isn’t the calling card it used to be. Coming into this weekend, only Mississippi and Alabama ranked in the top 10 in total defense out of the SEC. In college football’s golden age of offense, good defense is hard to define and maybe not quite as necessary. TCU coach Gary Patterson understood that after his team finished 4-8 last year. So he hired a new offensive coordinator to install an up-tempo, spread offense. The results have been spectacular for the 10th-ranked Horned Frogs, and never better than Saturday when they beat Texas Tech 82-27. “I don’t think we played well all game,” said Patterson, the former defensive coordinator whose team gave up four plays of 48 yards or longer in the first quarter.

New Mexican wire services

FORT COLLINS, Colo. — Garrett Grayson threw for five touchdowns, pushing his career total to a school record 53, and Colorado State beat Wyoming 45-31 Saturday night for its sixth straight win. It is the longest winning streak in a season for Colorado State since 2002, when the Rams also won six in a row. Grayson completed his first 13 passes of the game and finished 18 of 21 for 390 yards passing. He had first-half scoring passes of 21 yards to Dee Hart, 65 yards to Joe Hansley and 43 yards to Rashard Higgins to help Colorado State (7-1, 3-1 Mountain West) race to a 24-3 halftime lead. He finished off the Rams’ opening drive of the second half with his fourth touchdown pass of the night, a 21-yard strike to Xavier Williams to top the previous mark by Moses Moreno, who threw for 51 touchdowns at Colorado State from 1994-97. Higgins also had a 73-yard scoring reception from Grayson late in the third quarter, and he upped his touchdown catch total this year to 12, a single season Colorado State record. Dion Morton (2008) and Jeff Champine (1981) had shared the record with 10 touchdown catches. The fastest Mountain West receiver to 1,000 yards this season, Higgins wound up with five catches for 174 yards to boost his total to date to 1,137. Colby Kirkegaard completed 24 of 38 for 335 yards passing for

Wyoming (3-5, 1-3), which lost its fourth straight. The Cowboys have lost back to back meetings with Colorado State after stringing together a four-year winning streak. UTAH STATE 34, UNLV 20 In Logan, Utah, Craig Harrison threw three touchdowns, including one to Joe Hill who also ran for a score, as Utah State topped UNLV. Harrison passed for 221 yards in three quarters of play for the Aggies (5-3, 2-1 Mountain West Conference) before leaving with a leg injury on the final series of the third quarter. He was replaced by freshman Kent Meyers. Hill ran for 48 yards and had 69 receiving yards. JoJo Natson caught a 71-yard Harrison pass for a score in the second quarter. UNLV scored twice in the second quarter and the first half ended with a 17-13 USU edge. NAVY 41 SAN JOSE STATE 31 In Annapolis, Md., to take the initial snap on Navy’s first series of the second half, quarterback Keenan Reynolds stood only steps from his goal line. Ninetyeight yards later, Reynolds was celebrating with teammates in the other blue and goal checkerboard end zone. Reynolds had capped the Midshipmen’s longest drive of the season with his third touchdown on the way to a 41-31 win over San Jose State. Finally close to full health after two weeks off, Reynolds finished with career highs of 251 yards on 39 carries in his first game without a brace since absorbing a blow to his right knee Sept. 6 against Temple.

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Dak Prescott accounted for three touchdowns, Josh Robinson ran for two scores Saturday and Mississippi State beat Kentucky. Playing for the first time atop the rankings, the Bulldogs (7-0, 4-0 Southeastern Conference) showed no rust coming off an off week. Kentucky (5-3, No. 1 Miss. State 45 2-3) got within Kentucky 31 a touchdown four times, and Heisman Trophy hopeful Prescott and Robinson answered with TDs on three occasions. Prescott had TD runs of 2 and 11 yards and threw an 8-yard scoring pass to Brandon Hill. Robinson’s 73-yard touchdown run early in the fourth for a 38-24 lead proved critical after Patrick Towles’ 4-yard TD dive with 2:31 remaining brought Kentucky to 38-31. NO. 4 ALABAMA 34, TENNESSEE 20 In Knoxville, Tenn., Amari Cooper caught nine passes for a school-record 224 yards and scored two touchdowns to help Alabama beat Tennessee for its eighth consecutive victory in the series. The game marked a return for Alabama offensive coordinator Lane Kiffin, who coached Tennessee in 2009 and angered Volunteers fans by leaving for Southern California after only one season. Kiffin’s offense produced touchdowns on four of its first five series — including Cooper’s 80-yard TD catch on Alabama’s first play from scrimmage — as the Crimson Tide (7-1, 4-1 Southeastern Conference) raced to a 27-0 lead. NO. 5 AUBURN 42, SOUTH CAROLINA 35 In Auburn, Ala., Nick Marshall ran for three touchdowns and passed for a score and Auburn survived a scare from South Carolina after Steve Spurrier made a succession of gambles that paid off. The Tigers (6-1, 3-1 Southeastern Conference) finally stopped the onslaught of Spurrier, Dylan Thompson and fourthdown magic late in the game. Auburn burned off four-plus minutes from the clock after the first unsuccessful gamble before the Gamecocks (4-4, 2-4) made a stop at midfield for one more shot. NO. 8 MICHIGAN STATE 35, MICHIGAN 11 In East Lansing, Mich., Jeremy Langford ran for 177 yards and three touchdowns for Michigan State. The Spartans (7-1, 4-0 Big Ten) have won six of their past seven games against the Wolverines, only the second time Michigan State has accomplished that in a series that dates to 1898. The Wolverines (3-5, 1-3) are in danger of missing the postseason in Brady Hoke’s fourth year at the helm, and this game did

little to ease Michigan’s descent. The Wolverines were held to zero yards rushing in the first half. Michigan State has won 14 straight against Big Ten opponents. The Spartans have next weekend off before hosting Ohio State in a rematch of last year’s conference championship game. NO. 10 TCU 82, TEXAS TECH 27 In Fort Worth, Texas, Trevone Boykin threw a school-record seven touchdown passes and TCU showcased a new fastpaced offense by scoring the most points in school history. The Horned Frogs (6-1, 3-1 Big 12) beat their previous scoring high of 69 in the spread attack directed in part by co-offensive coordinator Sonny Cumbie, a former Texas Tech quarterback who spent the past four seasons as an assistant with the Red Raiders (3-5, 1-4). NO. 11 KANSAS STATE 23, TEXAS 0 In Manhattan, Kan., Kansas State’s rapidly improving defense led the first shutout of Texas in more than a decade to keep the Wildcats unbeaten in Big 12 play. Matthew McCrane kicked three field goals, and DeMarcus Robinson and Charles Jones each ran for a touchdown to lead the Wildcats (6-1, 4-0). NO. 13 OHIO STATE 31, PENN STATE 24, 2OT In State College, Pa., quarterback J.T. Barrett scored twice in overtime to help No. 13 Ohio State escape with a 31-24 double-overtime victory over Penn State. The Buckeyes (6-1, 3-0 Big Ten) built a 17-0 lead and were cruising when Penn State defensive tackle Anyhony Zettel intercepted Barrett’s pass and returned it 40 yards for a touchdown in the third quarter. Christian Hackenberg threw a 24-yard touchdown pass to Saeed Blacknall early in the fourth, and Penn State (4-3, 1-3) tied it on Sam Ficken’s 31-yard field goal with 9 seconds left.. NO. 15 ARIZONA 59, WASHINGTON STATE 37 In Pullman, Wash., Anu Solomon threw five touchdown passes to help Arizona beat Washington State. The freshman quarterback was 26 of 38 for 294 yards without an interception. Terris Jones-Grigsby added 107 yards rushing for Arizona (6-1, 3-1), which was coming off an off week after losing to Southern California. Washington State (2-6, 1-4), also off last week, lost its third straight game. Washington State’s Connor Halliday, the nation’s leading passer, completed 56 of 79 passes for 489 yards, with four touchdowns and two interceptions, and became the leading career passer in school history. Isiah Myers caught two touchdown passes for the Cougars.

NO. 16 NEBRASKA 42, RUTGERS 24 In Lincoln, Neb., Ameer Abdullah ran for 225 yards and three touchdowns and set a Nebraska record with 341 all-purpose yards. Abdullah surpassed 200 yards rushing for a nation-leading fourth time this season and fifth time in his career. He broke Roy Helu Jr.’s record of 321 all-purpose yards with his 23-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. The Cornhuskers (7-1, 3-1) reached the halfway point of conference play tied with Minnesota for first in the West Division. NO. 21 CLEMSON 16, SYRACUSE 6 In Clemson, S.C., Cole Stoudt threw for 209 yards and a touchdown, Ammon Lakip had three field goals and Clemson won its fifth straight. The Tigers (6-2, 5-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) overcame a spotty offensive showing with another strong performance on defense, holding the Orange (3-5, 1-3) to a season-low 170 yards of offense. NO. 22 WEST VIRGINIA 34, OKLAHOMA STATE 10 In Stillwater, Okla., Wendell Smallwood ran for a career-high 132 yards for West Virginia. Smallwood stepped in for Rushel Shell, who sat out with a foot injury suffered during a win over Baylor last week. Clint Trickett passed for 238 yards and two touchdowns and Mario Alford caught seven passes for a season-high 136 yards for the Mountaineers (6-2, 4-1 Big 12), who won their fourth straight and beat the Cowboys for the second straight year. NO. 23 MARSHALL 35, FLORIDA ATLANTIC 16 In Huntington, W.Va., Devon Johnson rushed for a school-record 272 yards and four touchdowns for Marshall. Marshall (8-0, 4-0 Conference USA) overcame its first halftime deficit of the season to extend its home winning streak to 12 games. Rakeem Cato threw the go-ahead score late in the third quarter to extend his Bowl Subdivision record of consecutive games with a TD toss to 40. Johnson had touchdown runs of 58, 62, 66 and 7 yards. He broke the school record of 262 yards set by Ron Darby in 1988. NO. 25 UCLA 40, COLORADO 37, 2OT In Boulder, Colo., Brett Hundley had an 8-yard touchdown run in double overtime to lift UCLA past Colorado. UCLA (6-2, 3-2 Pac-12) squandered a 17-point lead in the fourth quarter, and Colorado tied it on Will Oliver’s 35-yard field goal with 36 seconds remaining. The teams traded field goals in the first overtime. The Bruins then stopped the Buffaloes (2-6, 0-5) in the second OT and they settled for a 34-yarder from Oliver.

Kicker Colby Delahoussaye, who’d been perfect on field goals all season, missed a 28-yarder. Later, Fournette fumbled on first-and-goal from the 3.

But the Tigers trailed 7-3 at halftime because the Rebels forced a field goal after LSU drove inside the Ole Miss 15 for the third time.


SPORTS

NFL matchups Eagles (5-1) at Cardinals (5-1) Time: 2:05 p.m. Larry Foote had his share of highlights on his way to winning two Super Bowls with the Pittsburgh Steelers, but toward the end of his career, he has turned into Arizona’s version of Roger Murtaugh, the grizzled cop from the Lethal Weapon movies who continually said he was too old for his job but always managed to catch the bad guy. Brought in when the Cardinals thought Daryl Washington would miss only six games for violating the league’s substance abuse policy, the 34-year-old Foote has anchored the front seven as the team has unexpectedly taken control of the NFC West. Now that Washington has been suspended for the season, the Cardinals might go only as far as Foote’s aching body can take them. Foote, who described himself as old and slow, has spent a lot of time in the trainer’s room. The Cardinals led the NFL in rushing defense last season, and despite having many new faces in the lineup, they have turned into a brick wall under Foote, with no team having rushed for 100 yards in a game against them. They are allowing a league-low 72.5 rushing yards a game. The Cardinals will be tested by a well-rested LeSean McCoy, who finally got some of his swagger back by shredding the Giants for 149 yards on the ground before the Eagles’ Week 7 bye. Line: Cardinals by 1½. Pick: Cardinals.

Seahawks (3-3) at Panthers (3-3) Time: 11 a.m. As preseason picks to be two of the top NFC teams, Seattle and Carolina have not followed through. The Panthers have played worse, being outscored by an average of more than 5 points a game, but the Seahawks have raised more eyebrows by appearing vulnerable at home and by trading Percy Harvin, perhaps their most exciting player, to the Jets for the football equivalent of a bag of peanuts. Line: Seahawks by 6. Pick: Seahawks.

Packers (5-2) at Saints (2-4) Time: 6:30 p.m. When asked about his struggling team’s shot at the playoffs, Saints coach Sean Payton was diplomatic. “Basically we’re finished with, I believe, a third of the season — a little bit more than that,” Payton said Monday. “But the focus for us will be right on Green Bay.” Given New Orleans’ inability to slow opposing offenses, perhaps Payton should have quoted Jim Mora. As Indianapolis’ coach, Mora received a similar inquiry and responded, incredulously, “Playoffs?” Line: Saints by 1½. Pick: Packers.

Rams (2-4) at Chiefs (3-3) Time: 11 a.m. St. Louis earned a vote of confidence from Brett Favre, who said he thought Austin Davis could be the next Tom Brady or Kurt Warner. Davis has brightened the franchise’s fortunes, at least temporarily, but do not expect much from him against the stout Kansas City defense, which is particularly good against the pass. Alex Smith’s return to efficient production has helped Kansas City: In the last four games, he has thrown for eight touchdowns with one interception. Line: Chiefs by 7½. Pick: Chiefs.

Ravens (5-2) at Bengals (3-2-1) Time: 11 a.m. Cincinnati outscored opponents 80-33 during its 3-0 start. Since then, the Bengals have been outscored, 107-54. Even a game against a team they have already beaten is not that welcome. This game could come down to the status of A.J. Green, the dominant Bengals wide receiver, who has missed two weeks with a toe injury. Line: Ravens by 1½. Pick: Ravens.

Monday night victory over Houston. Line: Colts by 3½. Pick: Colts.

Bears (3-4) at Patriots (5-2) Time: 1 p.m. After years of watching Jay Cutler mope around the field, Chicago may have found its vocal leader in Brandon Marshall, who took the team to task for its poor effort in Week 7. Marshall’s harsh words were intended to be private, but he did not back down once they were made public. If his passion inspires his teammates, the Bears could be one of the league’s best teams. Line: Patriots by 6. Pick: Bears.

Lions (5-2) vs. Falcons (2-5) Time: 7:30 a.m. in London George Osborne, Britain’s chancellor of the Exchequer, has expressed support for an NFL team moving permanently to London, saying the league could rely on the government to do anything necessary to make it happen. Before a team begins preparing for the ultimate travel schedule, players might want to become more acquainted with British culture. Line: Lions by 4½. Pick: Lions.

Texans (3-4) at Titans (2-5) Time: 11 a.m. Leave it to a football player with a Harvard education to most accurately describe Houston’s Week 7 meltdown against Pittsburgh. “It was miserable, a terrible display of football,” said Texans quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick, formerly of the Ivy League, who threw an interception in the closing minutes. “It was as bad as I think it can get. As bad as I’ve seen, with two turnovers inside the 5-yard line and basically giving them 14 points. It’s unacceptable.” Line: Texans by 3½. Pick: Texans.

Bills (4-3) at Jets (1-6) Time: 11 a.m. Percy Harvin, when he is healthy and familiar with the playbook, is the dynamic player the Jets had hoped for when they signed Chris Johnson last offseason. The team can now combine them with two other quality skill players, Eric Decker and Chris Ivory. But the Jets still seem nearly irrelevant, which is perhaps the harshest indictment of Geno Smith to date. Line: Jets by 3. Pick: Bills.

Dolphins (3-3) at Jaguars (1-6) Time: 11 a.m. Denard Robinson played quarterback in college, was drafted as a wide receiver, and had 127 yards and a touchdown as a running back in Week 7. In two or three seasons, he might kick field goals or play cornerback, but for now he is Jacksonville’s best bet to take pressure off Blake Bortles, who has passed for five touchdowns with 10 interceptions. Line: Dolphins by 6½. Pick: Dolphins.

Raiders (0-6) at Browns (3-3) Time: 2:25 p.m. Oakland is off to the franchise’s worst start since 1962. An 0-12 start that season, and a 1-13 record overall, prompted the Raiders to make a change at the top: Al Davis, an offensive assistant for the Chargers, was hired as the youngest coach in the AFL. No one would confuse Tony Sparano for Davis, but Oakland has a chance against a Cleveland defense that has allowed 155.5 yards a game on the ground. The Raiders will probably not end their 12-game losing streak dating to last season. But they should at least put up a fight. Line: Browns by 7. Pick: Browns.

Vikings (2-5) at Buccaneers (1-5)

Time: 11 a.m. Everson Griffen has been a bright spot for Minnesota, with a team-high seven sacks. The Colts (5-2) Vikings’ losing record, however, at Steelers (4-3) appears to be weighing heavily Time: 2:25 p.m. on him. “We want the victory,” Andrew Luck’s passing is get- Griffen said. “It feels better ting most of the headlines, but when you get a victory.

NFL injury list gets accurate Focus on hurt players changes gamesmanship

By Ben Shpigel The New York Times

The cart had finished ferrying one injured Buffalo running back toward the locker room last Sunday when its services were required again. Three series after Fred Jackson was driven off the sideline, his thigh throbbing and his head buried in his hands, C.J. Spiller took his first, and last, handoff of the game. Shedding a tackle, he raced down the left side for 53 yards before being tripped up from behind, landing on his left shoulder. So intense was the pain that a teammate retrieved a towel so Spiller could cover his head as he was wheeled away. In a span of 10 offensive plays, the Bills endured the misery of losing two of their best players, and at the same position, no less. Jackson is expected to miss about a month with a torn muscle in his groin. Spiller fractured his collarbone and, after landing on short-term injured reserve, is not eligible to play again until Week 16. By then, with two games left, the Bills will know whether to consider this season a success or a failure. They will have either continued their surprising charge in the AFC, competing for their first playoff berth since 1999, or faded from contention, pummeled by the attrition that afflicts the league daily. Last week, no one was immune from this carnage. Not three-time Pro Bowlers like Washington linebacker Brian Orakpo. Not eight-year veterans like Oakland safety Usama Young. Not centers like Atlanta’s Peter Konz and San Francisco’s Daniel Kilgore.

Not even long snappers like Baltimore’s Morgan Cox. There were torn knee ligaments and pectoral muscles and biceps and groins. Broken legs and feet and hands and collarbones. Calf strains and neck strains and hamstring strains. Concussions — at least three of them. “At this point, it’s the week where you don’t have a lot of big players get injured — that’s when it seems like a weird week,” said Aaron Schatz, creator and editor-inchief of the analytical website Football Outsiders, which has tracked NFL injuries since 2000. If the league’s injury report was once viewed as a farce, an agent of gamesmanship rather than an accurate reflection of a team’s bruised and battered, it is now a fairly representative list. There might be more injuries than a decade ago, but it is also possible that given the ever-increasing mindfulness about concussions and player safety, more are being reported. That awareness overshadows a truth about life in the NFL: that helmets and padding protect but do not insulate, that in a sport of collisions and punishing hits, no body part is safe. Schatz sat in

the Gillette Stadium press box in Foxborough, Massachusetts, on Oct. 16, when New England hosted the New York Jets, and at one point, he said, the person next to him remarked how odd it seemed that no one had left yet because of injury. “We were astonished,” Schatz said. Had Schatz attended either team’s game four days earlier, he would not have been. As the Patriots absorbed season-ending knee injuries to two starters, linebacker Jerod Mayo and running back Stevan Ridley, in a victory at Buffalo, the Jets lost cornerback Dee Milliner (Achilles’ tendon) and offensive lineman Brian Winters (knee) in a defeat against Denver. That night, New York Giants receiver Victor Cruz tore the patellar tendon in his right knee and was lost for the season. The next day, Oct. 13, Milliner and Winters were placed on injured reserve. Over the course of that week, 14 other players from across the league joined them. Injured reserve is where teams stash their wounded, players guaranteed to miss the season or, in the case of those who land there tagged as designated to return, players

expected to come back but not any time soon. Those players, like Spiller and Philadelphia’s All-Pro guard Evan Mathis, are prohibited from practicing for six weeks and playing for eight. Still others begin the season on the physically unable-to-perform list, and they are barred from practicing or playing for the first six weeks of the season. A survey of every team’s roster revealed that through Thursday, 223 players populated those three lists. The Colts, with 13, and the Giants, with 11, had been clobbered the hardest. “We always tell our guys that every single player, whether you’re on the active roster or on the developmental roster, you’ve got to expect to play and prepare to play because that is the nature of this game,” said Jets coach Rex Ryan, who has six players on injured reserve, compared with nine through seven games last season. He added: “What hurts you sometimes is when you lose two or three guys at one position. Sometimes that’s more difficult to overcome.” The Bills managed their personnel losses last Sunday, when they escaped with a 17-16 comeback victory against Minnesota.

Rodgers, Brees keep offenses soaring to a record of 2-4, and they are playing Sunday to keep their season from unraveling any further. Few NFL quarterbacks have been more “If you can play a little bit better each consistently productive over the years week, then eventually the wins will than Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers and come,” Brees said at a news conference Drew Brees of New Orleans. this week. “Winning breeds confidence.

weight again this season. But so far, it’s not working. The Saints are 2-0 at home but 0-4 on the road. There are issues all over, including having the league’s 28th-ranked scoring defense. While the offense ranks second in the NFL in total yards and second in passing yards per game, the Saints are only 10th in scoring offense. Brees has thrown an uncharacteristic seven interceptions, only five fewer than all of last season, to go with his 11 touchdown passes. He is tied with Atlanta’s Matt Ryan as the league’s 17th-rated passer. “I don’t really care about last year’s statistics or any prior to that,” Brees said. “I don’t really care what we’re on pace to do or not to do.

Champion Spurs remain favorite

WESTERN CONFERENCE

The Associated Press

Calling it the Wild West just doesn’t do it justice anymore. The NBA’s Western Conference is brutal. It’s loaded with talent. And the eight teams that make it through a gruelingly competitive regular season to reach the playoffs will only find slugging their way to the NBA Finals even more daunting. Even after Minnesota traded All-Star Kevin Love to LeBron James and Cleveland and Pau Gasol left the Los Angeles Lakers for the Chicago Bulls, the balance of power still resides firmly out West. Last season 10 teams in the West had better records than the East’s eighth-place Atlanta Hawks. Seven teams won at least 50 games as opposed to just two in the East. The Dallas Mavericks won 49 and the Phoenix Suns missed the playoffs despite surprising the basketball world with 48 victories. It doesn’t figure to drop off this season, either. A look at the West: PLAYOFF BOUND 1. San Antonio Spurs: The band is back together, just as it’s always been. The one thing Tim Duncan and Gregg Popovich have yet to accomplish is win back-to-back titles. With Kawhi Leonard blossoming and preparing to take over as the face of the franchise, the Spurs are ready to roll again.

Oklahoma City Thunder’s shoot-first point guard Russell Westbrook will have to shoot even more while Kevin Durant recovers from a foot injury. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

2. Los Angeles Clippers: New owner Steve Ballmer has buried the embarrassing Donald Sterling reign under an avalanche of enthusiasm. And Blake Griffin is shooting 3s. Look out. 3. Golden State Warriors: They swapped coach Mark Jackson for Steve Kerr and fortified their depth with Shaun Livingston. But the biggest deal might be the one they didn’t make, turning down a chance to land Kevin Love from the Timberwolves because they wanted to keep Klay Thompson. 4. Dallas Mavericks: The team that gave the Spurs the most trouble in the playoffs last season got a whole lot better over the summer, adding Parsons, big man Tyson Chandler and steady point guard Jameer Nelson to the arsenal of coach Rick Carlisle, one of the few who can match coaching wits with Popovich.

5. Oklahoma City Thunder: Would be much higher on this list, but Kevin Durant’s foot injury looms large. They’ll be fine once he returns, but an extended absence will make it hard for the Thunder to crack the top half in this conference. 6. Memphis Grizzlies: They won 50 games last season despite dealing with injuries to Marc Gasol and Mike Conley. Now that everyone is healthy and on the same page, the Grizzlies are ready to grind again. 7. Portland Trail Blazers: They took the Spurs approach this summer, making smaller tweaks around their established core of LaMarcus Aldridge, Damian Lillard, Wes Matthews and Nic Batum and hoping continuity breeds success. 8. Houston Rockets: Hey, somebody has to finish eighth. Losing Parsons could put more pressure on Dwight Howard and James Harden to carry the load. IN THE MIX 9. New Orleans Pelicans: Davis was a monster for Team USA. If the Pelicans can stay healthy, they could sneak in. 10. Phoenix Suns: They won’t sneak up on anyone this year. If they are to improve, Eric Bledsoe will have to earn that $70 million extension. 11. Denver Nuggets: Welcome back, Arron Afflalo and Danilo Gallinari. Keep growing, Kenneth Faried. FACING LONG ODDS 12. Minnesota Timberwolves: Andrew Wiggins, Zach LaVine and Anthony Bennett have loads of potential. But it

will take time to recover from trading Love. 13. Sacramento Kings: DeMarcus Cousins should make his first All-Star team. That will likely be their highlight of the season. 14. Los Angeles Lakers: Steve Nash is already out. Not even a 28-year-old Kobe Bryant could carry this crew to the playoffs. 15. Utah Jazz: Derrick Favors and Enes Kanter need to start asserting themselves if the Jazz are going to make a jump. WHAT TO KNOW New coaches:The West has four new coaches. Flip Saunders (Minnesota) returns for a second tour, Quin Snyder (Utah) is a respected hoops tactician, Byron Scott (Lakers) has ties to the Showtime glory days and Kerr (Golden State) has never coached but already has pressure to win right away. Fa’s to watch: Marc Gasol will be coveted if Memphis lets him get to free agency next summer. The Clippers’ DeAndre Jordan, Sacramento’s Rudy Gay and Portland’s Wesley Matthews could all cash in as well. Westbrook’s time: The shoot-first point guard will have to shoot even more while the MVP recovers. Kobe’s back: He’s 36 and coming off two major injuries. The Lakers may be bad, but watching Bryant fight off Father Time will be compelling. History made: WNBA AllStar Becky Hammon joins the Spurs as the NBA’s first full-time female assistant.

EASTERN CONFERENCE

LeBron makes Cavs legitimate; Bulls hope to finally deliver By Tim Reynolds The Associated Press

LeBron James is again surrounded by an All-Star caliber guard, a big man who can score and 3-point sharpshooters. Sounds familiar. What’s old is new again for James, who left home for four years, learned plenty and returns eager to ply those lessons. Except this wasn’t college; this was free agency and he chose Miami, where he became a two-time champion. And now he’s back in Cleveland, where his career began and where it will presumably finish, with the four-time MVP driven by a quest to deliver a long-awaited title to his native Northeast Ohio. In Miami, his star mates were Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. His favorite shooters included Mike Miller and James Jones. In Cleveland, James’ star associates will be Kyrie Irving and Kevin Love. And he’s got Miller and Jones with him again. Cleveland’s biggest challenge in the Eastern Conference likely will come from the Chicago Bulls, a team that won 48 games despite former MVP Derrick Rose missing the season. Washington and Toronto are young teams on the rise, Miami still has plenty of talent and the race for the final playoff spots should have no shortage of contenders. A look at the East:

PLAYOFF BOUND 1. Cleveland Cavaliers: James has been to the NBA Finals in each of the last four years, and he’s put a supporting cast together in Cleveland that could ensure that streak continues. There’s so many questions about the Cavs, but James alone provides plenty of answers. 2. Chicago Bulls: Rose is healthy, Joakim Noah is an elite big man and the Bulls added another 7-footer with championship savvy in Pau Gasol. They could be a size nightmare for plenty of teams, and Rose has to be extremely motivated after dealing with injuries for so long. 3. Washington Wizards: John Wall and (when he comes back) Bradley Beal could be the East’s top backcourt, Paul Pierce makes the Wizards better and smarter, there’s depth and there’s confidence. A year ago, they were a surprise to some. Now, contending is expected. 4. Toronto Raptors: Plenty of other teams in the East are reinventing themselves. Not the Raptors. Toronto’s top seven scorers (in terms of total points) from last season are all back this year, and this team went 22-10 to close out the regular season. Watch them closely. 5. Miami Heat: Motivation might have been in short supply last year. That’s not the case anymore. Beaten by the Spurs in the Finals, then spurned by James in the summer, the Heat have taken plenty of shots in recent months. Time to see what Bosh and Wade will do. 6. Charlotte Hornets: Lance

Stephenson’s arrival makes a team that went to the playoffs last year better, even though the Hornets — Bobcats a year ago — will have to deal with losing Josh McRoberts to Miami. Al Jefferson is one of the East’s best big men. 7. Atlanta Hawks: A second year of Mike Budenholzer’s system will help, and having Al Horford back will help even more. The Hawks have a big in Horford, a shooter in Kyle Korver, but it remains to be seen if front-office issues holds this team back. 8. New York Knicks: Never doubt the power of the triangle. The Knicks are rebuilding under first-year coach Derek Fisher, but they have a star in Carmelo Anthony and a scheme that may create plenty of headaches. IN THE MIX 9. Brooklyn Nets: Brook Lopez already being hurt, though presumably just minor, is not a good sign. 10. Indiana Pacers: Losing Paul George to that awful leg injury this summer changes everything. 11. Detroit Pistons: Stan Van Gundy starts his building project, and he’s got some talent. FACING LONG ODDS 12. Boston Celtics: Even with Rajon Rondo the Celtics don’t seem ready for a leap. 13.

He was part of a star-studded group that went to Brooklyn with eyes on a title, but the Nets lost center Brook Lopez early in the year and never realized their potential. Afterward, Pierce weighed his options — stay in Brooklyn? Move to his Los Angeles hometown to join the Clippers? — before deciding he could be the missing piece to Washington’s championship puzzle. He’s convinced he made the right move. After watching the Wizards last season, Pierce realized they were rushing everything in the deciding minutes of second-round games against the Indiana Pacers. They were outscored in the final three minutes in every game, something Pierce chalked up to a relative lack of playoff experience. That’s what he brings to Washington. “I think we have something here,” Pierce said. He’s a Wizard now, though deep down, his Celtics roots are still there.

Van Gundy (Detroit) has won 64 percent of his games, Fisher (New York) won five rings as a player, Jason Kidd (Milwaukee) was a champion, Lionel Hollins (Brooklyn)

went 56-26 in his last season with Memphis and David Blatt (Cleveland) was renown for his work in Israel. Fa’s to watch: Boston’s Rondo and Detroit’s Greg Monroe will likely be the among the biggest-name free agents next summer. Miami’s shot: Bosh has waited patiently for his chance to be a first-option again, and Wade has made trying to silence

doubters an annual occurrence. New, New York: The Nets don’t have the enormous expectations and tax bill of a year ago, and the Knicks start their first full season with Phil Jackson calling the shots. No MVP … for now: For the first time since 2008, a season begins with the reigning MVP (Kevin Durant) hailing from the West. Oddsmakers favor James to reclaim it this season.

AUSTIN, Texas frigate carrying French colonists to the New World that sank in a storm off the Texas coast more than 300 years ago is being reassembled into a display that archaeologists hope will let people walk over the hull and feel like they are on the ship’s deck. The 1686 wreck of the 54-foot oak frigate La Belle — in an expedition led by famed Mississippi River explorer René-Robert Cavelier Sieur de La Salle — is blamed for dooming France’s further exploration of what would become Texas and the American Southwest. But La Salle’s short-lived Fort St. Louis near the shipwreck site in Matagorda Bay, about 100 miles southwest of presentday Houston, also convinced Spain to boost its presence in the region to ward off a feared French territorial expansion. “In a very real way, it’s responsible for our Hispanic heritage we have today,” said Jim Bruseth, curator of the La Belle project at the Bullock Texas State History Museum. “They had nobody here, and it started the process of settling Texas. “History oftentimes turns on seemingly small events,” Bruseth said. “We have that actual ship, the remains of it here, that’s the icon of that event.” Beginning Oct. 25, visitors to the Austin museum will be able to watch Bruseth and other archaeologists put the wrecked ship back together and talk with them as they work. The reassembly is expected to be complete by spring. “It’s going to be a lot of fun. It’s like a dinosaur, big and dynamic and magnetic,” said Peter Fix, one of the assembly team members and chief conservator for Texas A&M University’s Center for Maritime Archaeology and Conservation. “Once we get the framing up it’s going to look like a big beached whale, a bone carcass. And that’s dynamic and hope-

fully it will pique curiosity.” The keel and other large structural pieces of La Belle — resembling old railroad ties — were discovered in 1995 by Texas Historical Commission archaeologists. Researchers built a dam around the site, pumped it dry, then retrieved the nearly intact hull that had been preserved in up to 6 feet of mud. In 2012, the 600 waterlogged pieces were taken to Texas A&M, where the timber was stored at 60 degrees below zero in the world’s largest archaeological freeze-dryer to remove more than three centuries of moisture. Once the assembly is finished, the hull will be encased in a glass cabin-like structure so people can have the sensation of being on the ship’s deck, peering into the hull and its cargo holds “and understand that they’re not looking at just a bunch of dirty old boards,” Fix said. La Salle was the first European to travel the Mississippi River south to the Gulf, claiming all the land along the river and its tributaries for France in 1682. Three years later, he sailed from France with more than 300 colonists aboard four ships including La Belle to establish a settlement. One ship had been lost to pirates. Another ran aground and sank. A third eventually headed back to France, leaving La Belle as his only lifeline. That was severed with its sinking. Then the colony at Fort St. Louis was ravaged by disease, rattlesnakes, water shortages and Indians. Its inhabitants died or were killed while La Salle led a handful of men inland. The museum exhibition also includes cannons and rifles, ammunition, cooking utensils, tools, building materials, trinkets like beads, bells and mirrors and even some of the 1,603 Jesuit rings recovered. “We couldn’t be any luckier in that sense,” Bruseth said. “Rather than the ship being empty when it wrecked, everything he had left that you need for a colony was in the Belle.”

WALKING THE WORLDS BEST TRAILS Saturday, November 1st at 5pm You can find the lists on numerous web sites of “The World ‘s Great Treks”. Many, like Patagonia ‘s Torres del Paine Circuit, are hard core backpacks over mountain passes, while others, like Ireland ‘s Dingle Way, are gentle strolls through pastoral landscapes. On a traverse of Wyoming ‘s Wind River Range or Vancouver Island ‘s West Coast Trail nights are spent in a tent.Along Spain ‘s Camino de Santiago, a pilgrim typically sleeps in a hostel with snoring Germans, international dropouts, and noisy college kids.Teahouses on Nepal ‘s Annapurna Circuit seldom have hot water, soap, or heat. But it ‘s the weather that can cause the greatest hardship. It doesn’t just rain along England ‘s 190 mile Coast to Coast Walk. It can rain every day, all the time. It ‘ll probably be snowing when you summit Patagonia ‘s John Garner Pass and see the greatest ice field beyond the polar ice cap. The mountains along Scotland ‘s West Highland Way are as rugged as they come, but you ‘ll need a wee drop of whiskey to drive the cold and wet from your bones after a day of trekking along Loch Lomond. New Zealand ‘s mountain treks and scenery may be iconic, but the mud and terrifying midges are seldom.

New-home sales close to flat in September

Aging gracefully at home Accessibility is key as homeowners grow older

G

rowing old is a privilege. How can we transition into this chapter independently, with ease and grace? As long as we have the wherewithal to tackle remodels or are in the market to purchase a home, there are universal design practices to help make aging in place a possibility. Of course we want it all — both form and function — and with careful planning, both are achievable. Accessibility is one of the biggest concerns as we age. We become not as nimble and sure-footed as we once were, and can eliminate areas that might contribute to a fall or a feeling of confinement. A one-level residence is ideal for easy maneuvering and allows for a sense of freedom. Installing 3-foot-wide doors is optimal for clear passage of a wheelchair or walker, and adding ramps where possible to alleviate steps ensures safety and ease. Within the kitchen, there are a few easy features to incorporate. Pull-out drawers allow easier access to pans and dishware without straining vulnerable backs and knees. Drawer-front models are available for dishwashers, microwaves and refrigerators that allow for key tasks within reach. While planning wall cabinets, consider eliminating the majority of upper cabinets that are difficult to access and often turn into a frustration or stepladder nightmare. Even small details such as door and drawer cabinet hardware can be selected to be large enough and a good shape for easy grasping. Another important area of focus is the bathroom. Tub showers can be challenging for almost everyone, but walk-in showers with zero thresholds are an excellent choice for accessibility and aesthetics. Add a sturdy tiled bench with a hand-held showerhead beside it, and you have a safe, spa-like experience. For shower floors, look at tumbled or textured tile that provides slip resistance. For the countertop, an anti-bacterial quartzite solid surface can be used without need for sealing or waxing maintenance. Quartzite is available in a honed finish that is soft on the eyes and offers a sophisticated look. When designing a new sink vanity, consider leaving knee space under the sink for stool or wheelchair pull-up. As we age, our vision declines. It gets more difficult to distinguish colors in a similar tonal value (for example, pastel pink and pastel green) and those adjacent on the color wheel (red and orange, for instance). Consider painting bathroom walls a color to contrast white plumbing fixtures for easy visibility. Colors to avoid are yellow and neutrals, as they tend to fade away, and blue, blue-green and violet, as they tend to appear gray. For paint finishes, an eggshell or flat is easy to maintain and does not create glare that can be blinding to aging eyes. To create an even healthier space, finishes such as noVOC paints and stain, clay plaster and formaldehyde–free cabinets are critical. Falls can easily happen to any of us, but as we grow older, it becomes more of an effort to heal from them, so look at selecting appro-

Many potential buyers lack savings, strong credit history for purchase By Josh Boak The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — U.S. sales of new homes were nearly flat in September, after the government sharply revised downward what was initially an August surge in buying. New-home sales edged up 0.2 percent last month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 467,000, the Commerce Department reported Friday. The report also revised down the August sales rate to 466,000 from 504,000. The pace of sales for newly built homes has improved a mere 1.7 percent so far this year compared to 2013. Only the South has experienced gains in buying year-to-date, while purchases have fallen in the Northeast, Midwest and West. Housing has struggled to fully rebound since the recession ended more than five years ago. Many potential buyers lack the savings and strong credit history needed to afford a home, causing them to rent or remain in their existing houses instead of upgrading. Construction and buyers of new homes have trickled back from the worst of the bust, but new-home sales remain drastically below the annual rate of 700,000 during the 1990s. Sales in the most expensive Western states declined in September, reversing some of the gains made in August. Because homes are pricier in the West, that pushed down the median price for a new home to $259,000 from $286,800 in the prior month. Analysts noted that the new-home sales report from the government is notoriously volatile from month to month, yet sales have basically been stuck in place for the past few years. “There is little evidence that the new single-family housing market is decisively breaking out of its medium-term flat pattern,” said Joshua Shapiro, chief U.S. economist at the forecasting firm MFR. Some of the financial pressures on homebuyers are starting to ease, yet it’s unlikely that will do much to suddenly boost sales of new homes in the final months of this year. Over the past two weeks, federal regulators have unveiled plans to loosen down payment requirements, and mortgage rates have tumbled below 4 percent. Along with a slowdown in price growth, these factors could eventually help usher more buyers into the real estate market. Average rates for a 30-year mortgage fell to 3.92 percent from 3.97 percent last week, the mortgage company Freddie Mac reported. That is the lowest level since June 2013 and marks a solid decline from average rates that began the year at 4.53 percent. When rates fall, it becomes cheaper for people to borrow and makes homes more affordable. But many potential buyers are unable to upgrade to a new home by selling their current home, as prices still have yet to exceed mortgage debt for much of the country. More than 8 million homes are “seriously under-

priate floor finishes that offer a slip-resistant surface. Wood, engineered wood or laminate flooring are excellent choices because they are easy to maneuver a wheelchair, cane or walker as well as having the benefits of being easy to clean and being relatively soft to cushion a fall. Just about all of these design features would help improve everyone’s life in one way or another without sacrificing good design. By the year 2050, the aging population will outnumber those under the age of 14, so universal design is something for us all to familiarize ourselves with and incorporate into decision-making for needs now or in the future.

For author, one question is key to decluttering Does it ‘spark joy’? If not, toss it, Marie Kondo says By Penelope Green The New York Times

By her own account, Marie Kondo was an unusual child, poring over lifestyle magazines to glean organizing techniques and then stealthily practicing them at home and school, confounding her family and bemusing her teachers. As she writes in The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of

Decluttering and Organizing, which comes out this month in the United States and is already a best-seller in her native Japan and in Europe, she habitually sneaked into her siblings’ rooms to throw away their unused toys and clothes and ducked out of recess to organize her classroom’s bookshelves and mop closet, grumbling about poor storage methodologies and pining for an S-hook. Now 30, Kondo is a celebrity of sorts at home, the subject of a TV movie, with a three-month waiting list for her decluttering services — until recently, that is, because she has stopped taking clients to focus on training others in her methods. This month,

I brought her book home to practice them. What better moment to drill down and ponder the fretful contents of one’s sock drawer? Global and national news was careering from the merely hysterical to the nonsensical (the Ebola cruise ship incident was just peaking). Closer to home, other anxieties beckoned. But in my apartment, the world was no larger than my closet, and I was talking to my T-shirts. Let me explain. Kondo’s decluttering theories are unique, and can be reduced to two basic tenets: Discard everything that does not “spark joy,” after thanking the objects that are getting the heave-ho for their ser-

vice; and do not buy organizing equipment — your home already has all the storage you need. Obsessive, gently self-mocking and tender toward the life cycle of, say, a pair of socks, Kondo delivers her tidy manifesto like a kind of Zen nanny, both hortatory and animistic. “Don’t just open up your closet and decide after a cursory glance that everything in it gives you a thrill,” she writes. “You must take each outfit in your hand.” “Does it spark joy?” would seem to set the

t

RIGHT AT HOME

Fall décor gets cozy

Continued from Page E-1 bar awfully high for a T-shirt or a pair of jeans, but it turns out to be a more efficacious sorting mechanism than the old saws: Is it out of style? Have you worn it in the last year? Does it still fit? Alone in my bedroom, with the contents of both closets strewn over every surface, I fondled stretch velvet pants (don’t judge me) and enough fringed scarves to outfit an army of Stevie Nicks fans, and shed a tear or two for my younger self. (Where did the time go?) “Sparking joy,” I realized, can be a flexible concept: That which is itchy or too hot is certainly joyless. So is anything baggy, droopy or with a flared leg. Tidying is a dialogue with oneself, Kondo writes. Of course, after 10 or 12 hours of this, you get a bit silly. You forget to thank your discards. (Country music can help. Try George Jones and Lucinda Williams.) By 9 p.m., I had lost Kondo’s book in the layers of clothing, hangers and shoe boxes. And my glasses, too. How to distinguish one black turtleneck from another? Why would anyone buy purple tights? What is joy, anyway? At 1 a.m., my daughter appeared, raised an eyebrow at the piles still obliterating my bed and offered up her own. But I was ready to fold, the primal act of Kondo’s method. You can find YouTube videos of her technique, but it’s not so hard: Fold everything into a long rectangle, then fold that in upon itself to make a smaller rectangle, and then roll that up into a tube, like a sushi roll. Set these upright in your drawers. And pour your heart into it, Kondo urges: Thank your stuff, it’s been working hard for you. “When we take our clothes in our hands and fold them neatly,” she writes, “we are, I believe, transmitting energy, which has a positive effect on our clothes.” She proposes a similarly agreeable technique for hanging clothing. Hang up anything that looks happier hung up, and arrange like with like, working from left to right, with dark, heavy clothing on the left: “Clothes, like people, can relax more freely when in the company of others who are very similar in type, and therefore organizing them by category helps them feel more comfortable and secure.” Such anthropomorphism and nondualism, so familiar in Japanese culture, as Leonard Koren, a design theorist who has written extensively on Japanese aesthetics, told me recently, was an epiphany to this Westerner. In Japan, a hyperawareness, even reverence, for objects is a rational response to geography, said Koren, who spent 10 years there and is the author of Wabi-Sabi for Artists, Designers, Poets & Philosophers. “Think of the kimono, and the tradition of folding,” he said. “There is also the furoshiki, which is basically a square of flat cloth used daily to wrap packages. Folding is deep and pervasive in Japanese culture. Folding is a key strategy of modular systems that have evolved because of limited living space.” He added: “More spiritually, the idea of nondualism is a relationship to reality that proposes that everything is inextricably connected and alive, even inanimate objects. If we are compassionate and respectful to everything that exists, then we would have to be compassionate about the socks in the drawer that aren’t folded properly.” Indeed, Kondo’s instructions regarding socks are eye-opening. Socks bust their chops for you, and if you ball them up, they don’t get a chance to rest. As she puts it, “The socks and stockings stored in your drawer are essentially on holiday.” Mine were obviously having a terrible time, torqued and twisted like coach passengers on an overcrowded flight to Europe. My weekend was lost to Kondo. After three days, I had given four bags of clothing and two bags of shoes to The Salvation Army, along with two dead computers. Two-thirds of my fridge — jam dating to 2010, undated tubes of tomato paste — ended up in the trash. “Where is all the food?” my daughter wailed. Giddy, I twirled ribbons into circles and nestled them in a drawer with a stack of tissue paper, notecards and rolls of Scotch tape. I threw lone gloves out with near drunken abandon. And I smugly noted that my hoarding habits could be worse. In a section titled “Astounding Stockpiles I Have Seen,” Kondo writes of the client with 60 toothbrushes and of another with 80 rolls of toilet paper. The record, she says, was the client who stockpiled 20,000 cotton swabs. Of the toothbrush hoarder, Kondo muses: “It’s interesting how the human mind tries to make sense even out of the nonsensical. I found myself pondering whether she would go through one a day if she brushed her teeth too hard, or if perhaps she used a different brush for each tooth.” I filled two 60-gallon trash bags with miscellaneous garbage: shirts with ink stains on the pockets, old clippings, appliance warranties, credit card statements. For Kondo’s instruction on sorting papers is perhaps the most liberating of all her maxims: Just throw them all away. (She is equally ruthless about buttons.) “There is nothing more annoying than papers,” she says firmly. “After all, they will never spark joy, no matter how carefully you keep them.”

ozying up in a favorite sweater is one of the distinct pleasures of autumn. This fall, designers and retailers are stitching up sweater motifs on an array of home décor. So while you’re wrapping yourself in a big, soft cardigan, you can also grace your space with a dollop of knitted comfort. Hannah Millman, executive editorial director of crafts for Martha Stewart Living, says knitwear is a trend with near-universal appeal. She suggests some do-it-yourself projects. “Almost everyone has a memory of a sweater that makes them feel good. What’s so great about repurposing one of your own is that you get to keep it and enjoy it,” she says. “And if you’ve found one at a market that someone may have

knit back in the ’40s, you can give it the opportunity to be loved again by making it into something new.” One of Millman’s favorite ways to reuse sweaters: Collect a bunch of creamy-hued ones, in one type of knit or perhaps several, and cut them up to make a blanket, pillow or rug. You’ll find project ideas and instructions at Marthastewart. com as well as Countryliving.com, where there are also how-tos for lamps, bowls and sconces. “Creating a little story on pillows using pieces of old sweaters is a big trend,” she says. Look for pieces in gradations of color — perhaps pale pink to deep cherry, or sky blue to indigo. Or search tag sales and thrift stores for sweaters with nature motifs to create a group of woodland pillows. Those dreadful Christmas sweaters of old can be transformed into new Christmas stockings; other heavily patterned and colorful sweaters make great rugs.

obstacle to homeownership is the down payment,” said Jed Kolko, chief economist at Trulia in the report. “For those would-be homeowners — especially first-timers without savings or equity from another home — a low-down-payment mortgage might be the only option.” Federal regulators have announced plans this month to lower the down payment requirements for some Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac programs to 3 percent from 5 percent.

ing the recovery, a broad swath of Americans lack the income needed to buy a house. The troublesome housing landscape has created a paradox: It’s ostensibly cheaper to own for the time-being, but more people are stuck renting, according to an analysis from the real estate data firm Trulia. A recent report by the firm found that current mortgage rates have made it 38 percent cheaper to buy a home rather than renting, based on a seven-year timeframe. “Consumers tell us that the main

Millman suggests using a rotary cutter and anchoring the edges of a loose knit with masking tape while cutting, to reduce fraying. She also advises washing any woolens in hot soapy water in case there are moths. If you then machine-dry the sweater, you’ll end up with a “felted” material, popular in crafting circles, where the fibers smush together. If you line-dry the garment, the knit pattern remains and the fibers stay separated.

Horoscope HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, Oct. 26, 2014: This year you will have the drive and energy to achieve your goals. In some sense, you will be hard to stop once you decide to head down a certain path. You could become increasingly strong-willed in order to achieve what you want. If you are single, you could become involved in a relationship where you put this person on a pedestal. The problem is that he or she eventually will fall off of it. If you are attached, the two of you need to demonstrate more give-and-take. If you do, you will enter a very romantic phase. Sagittarius might be too much of a risktaker for your taste. The stars show the kind of day you’ll have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult

ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You finally could choose to take action regarding a longstanding problem. Others naturally will respond positively to your ideas. Listen to your intuition as well, even if what it tells you is contrary to your decisions. Tonight: See past the obvious. This Week: Look to an unusual idea or solution.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Spend time with a loved one. You might find yourself caught up in a discussion where you will be able to identify with this person’s perceptions and choices. Listen to your inner voice about someone you look up to. Tonight: Confusion marks your plans. This Week: You might be presenting many different approaches. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Defer to others, as you will be flooded with ideas and suggestions. A complaint might be headed your way as well. You could wonder who the real source of the gripe is. Reach out to a friend who is much more visible than you are. Tonight: All smiles. This Week: Others let you know what to expect. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You might want to get some errands done and maybe watch a movie. You could discover that a close loved one is on the war path. Your first reaction might be to avoid this person. If you do, it will only get worse. Tonight: Relax. Think “tomorrow.” This Week: Get a lot done

by Tuesday, when people could interfere with your plans. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Others might become more serious or argumentative. You can put a situation on the back burner for only so long. You might not want to discuss what is going on, so keep a talk as light as possible. Try to help someone sort through his or her confusion. Tonight: Out late. This Week: Allow your creativity to gain others’ support. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Tension builds on the homefront. Get down to the real problem, which seems to surround a child or loved one. Be open and have what could be a hard conversation. You are going down a path where you might eliminate a problem. Tonight: Allow in more fun and laughter. This Week: Tension might be high in your personal life; try to work it out. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You are likely to see a situation differently after having an animated chat. Be willing to make an adjustment, even if you have to make an extra effort or change your immediate plans. A discussion with a partner will give you a different perspective. Tonight: Chat over dinner. This Week: You are likely to say what you think. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Your possessive side might emerge when dealing with a neighbor or sibling. This person

also could be demanding. Be aware of the anger that is likely to build between the two of you. Perhaps some distance from each other would help. Tonight: Grab a treat on the way home. This Week: Be careful in money discussions. SAGITTARIUS(Nov.22-Dec.21) HHHH You could be more in touch with your feelings than you have been in a while. Others will sense a change in you, and they will start responding differently to you. You might find that you’ll really enjoy yourself. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile. This Week: Handle an important issue Monday. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Be more in touch with your needs. You will become combative if you are not careful. Note that this tendency could last for a few weeks. Do not let anger build; instead, discuss your feelings before that happens. A partner will sense the difference. Tonight: Take a walk. This Week: You could be angry and contrary. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Friends surround you, and you might be overwhelmed by all their attention and invitations. Decide what you want to do. You could feel angry or frustrated regardless. Ask yourself where the real source of your feelings is coming from. Tonight: Paint the town red. This Week: A meeting Monday could set the tone for the rest of the week. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH If you feel so strongly about a long-term desire, why not take an active role in making it happen? A friend could push your buttons while you attempt to handle key responsibilities. Find out what is going on. Tonight: Choose a favorite stressbuster. This Week: Others look to you to take the lead.

Scratch pad

he Internet is an insidious gobbler of time. Worse, it is a research tool that can appeal to our basest instincts, such as the impulse to cruelly make fun of people’s names. Something must be done about this. Ophelia Toshee lived in Natchitoches, La., in 1910. Fannie Sechs lived in Baltimore in 1920. I came to this negative conclusion about the Internet, and human cruelty, after spending 21 hours recently over four days noodling around on a site called FamilySearch.org, which is operated by the Mormon church. It is a searchable public-record database for nearly every name ever given to any newborn in the United States since the 18th century. Gene Saliva Vanderlick was born in 1917 in Weingarten Louisiana. The Washington Joe Mama lived in Arkansas in 1930. Post Lotta Blood, 27, was married in Chicago in 1894. While the site does appear to have been hacked a bit by smart alecks (I’ll warrant “Buck Nekkid” never walked the earth), most of the info seems solid, often cross-checkable through other sources. For example, while “Booger Snot” is clearly an invention, Ernest Mckinley Snot is quite real. Mr. Snot died in North Carolina in 1970. Minnie Bosom got married in Miller County, Ark., in 1884. Willie Small Johnson lived in Gainesville, Fla., in 1940. I acknowledge that there is a legitimate reason for sites like FamilySearch.org. The problem is that they are so easy to use that they become unholy tools for truly immature people willing to waste inordinate amounts of time trying absurd names just to see what gets a hit. There is no real Chester Molester, but there is a Peter Molester. Many painful names that belong to women are the result of unfortunate marriages at a time when the option of keeping one’s maiden name was simply out of the question. This happened in Oklahoma around 1910 when a woman named Ima married F.A. Pigg. Women named Ida married men named Kister. Other Idas married men named Lichter. A woman named Orga married a man named Sims. And in perhaps the cruelest coupling of all, in Manistee, Mich., in the 1930s, a woman with the unfortunate given name of Labia was unlucky enough to fall for, and marry, a Daniel Hornkohl. But so many of these names are quite deliberate. Many English girls were named Fanny Pincher. Ima Urethra Mosher was born in Nacogdoches, Texas. Floyd Smelly, an Alabaman, didn’t have a whole lot to work with, but one wonders why, in 1901, he named his eldest daughter Nellie. Elsewhere in Alabama at the time dwelt an unmarried lady named Classie Nipples. Several women have been named Anita Bath, and none seem to have married into it. In 1920 in Bluffdale Township, Ill., Myra and Douglas Hoots had a live-in housekeeper named Icy Hand. Delphine Mae Wanna resides to this day in South Dakota. Wanda Lust was born in Iowa in 1912. There is a Helen Erth and more than one Robin Graves. A Dewey Tukus. A Helen Wheels died in Minneapolis in 1979. It is unclear whether it was in an auto accident. OK, enough of this. If I continue much longer I fear I will be unfairly accused of immaturity. So I’ll just leave you with these, all real, all in Michigan and West Virginia in the 1940s: Carl Poop, Olive Poop, Junie Poop, Murvin Poop, Pearl Poop, Warden Poop, Gretchen Poop, Icie Poop and, of course, Kitty Poop.
