Federal funding shortfall falls on other projects

Nampa still accepting streetscape comments Public has until Thursday to provide input on plans By CHRISTINA MARFICE cmarfice@idahopress.com

NAMPA — Nampa is one step closer to developing a streetscape plan for downtown. Business owners and community members gathered at an open house this week at Lloyd Square to vote on options for sidewalk width and aesthetics, tree placement and street parking. “Downtown Nampa is on a roll,” said LaRita Schandorff, who is with Bike-Walk Nampa and chairs the Nampa Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee. “It’s doing great. I think if we do the right thing, it’ll just get better.”

Rush hour traffic at the intersection of Karcher and Middleton in Nampa. Average daily traffic counts increased by about 3,000 vehicles for 2009 to 2013 at this intersection.

Is the future of transportation funding dependent on city coffers? By CHRISTINA MARFICE cmarfice@idahopress.com

© 2014 Idaho Press-Tribune

NAMPA — Since 2009, average daily traffic on Karcher Road between the intersections of Caldwell Boulevard and Middleton Road has increased nearly 20 percent, from 16,000 daily drivers in 2009 to 19,000 in 2013. In the same span of time, the intersection at Karcher and Middleton roads saw 135 traffic crashes, 87 of them involving injuries — 43 in the intersection and 92 in the area around it. The Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho, or COMPASS, calls the Karcher-Middleton intersection “critical,” in need of more lanes and other safety improvements. Those improvements are coming this year, but a shortfall in federal funding jeopardized the project and the city of Nampa had to

make up the difference — to the tune of $541,000. More and more, state and local agencies are struggling to balance diminishing federal funds with rising costs and failing infrastructure, causing local agencies to wonder if they will be forced to bear more costs in the future. Idaho’s apportionment of federal funding had the Karcher-Middleton safety improvement project fully funded at the start of the fiscal year. But when Idaho received only about 95 percent of the federal funding it had anticipated, the Karcher-Middleton project was one of three statewide projects that became unfunded. To keep the project moving forward, the city of Nampa contributed $541,000 — the amount of the federal shortfall. Later, Idaho received more federal money, returning statewide federal funding

to 100 percent of what had been budgeted at the start of the year. However, because Nampa had accessed $475,000 of urban area-allocated federal funds earlier in the year, ITD said, the city would not be reimbursed for what it had contributed to the KarcherMiddleton project, and the extra federal funding would go to other areas of the state.

FEDERAL FUNDING IS STAGNANT AT BEST “We’re running into this nationwide,” said Matt Stoll, executive director of COMPASS. “We’re not able to fund as many projects as we used to with the money that’s coming into our region and our state.” Stoll said a combination of factors contribute to shortfalls in federal funding: less revenue and increasing costs.

Please see Funding, A4

TIMELINE Aug. 22: ITD contacted COMPASS to report it had determined there was a shortfall in federal funding and that the Karcher-Middleton intersection safety improvement project, along with two projects in Ada County, would not be fully funded in 2014. Idaho’s federal obligation authority — the amount of federal transportation funding it received for 2014 — was about 95 percent of what it had originally budgeted. Sept. 5: COMPASS determined the funding for the Karcher-Middleton project was short $541,486. Based on COMPASS board meetings and communication with ITD, it was determined that the project could still move forward if the city of Nampa provided that funding. Sept. 10: The city of Nampa delivered a check for $541,486 to ITD. Sept. 11: Redistribution funds restored Idaho’s federal funding to 100 percent obligation authority, but redistributed funds were given to other state projects

School trustees push for bond relief Group calls on Legislature to eliminate supermajority By CLARK CORBIN Idaho Education News

© IdahoEdNews.org

BOISE — Idaho school trustees threw their support behind two measures to offset districts’ financial concerns, while rejecting a third. But first, before the Idaho School Boards Association’s business session could get under way Friday morning, a resolution opposing the tiered teacher licensure plan was pulled abruptly. The resolutions that were approved Friday are considered formal policy of the ISBA for two years. The group will lobby on these issues at the Idaho Capitol Building for the next two sessions. One resolution has a familiar ring. By a 2,691 to 1,116 vote margin, trustees supported calling on the Legislature to reduce the supermajority threshold for school facility bonds. For the past eight years, the ISBA has pushed for the elimination of the supermajority threshold, without success. The previous resolution expired this year, so the idea was again brought forward.

McDonald’s won’t buy Simplot’s GMO potato THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

BOISE — The U.S. Department of Agriculture has approved Idahobased J.R. Simplot Co.’s new genetically modified potato. But one of the company’s oldest business partners — McDonald’s — hasn’t. The fast-food giant says it doesn’t use genetically modified potatoes, the Idaho Statesman reported. “McDonald’s USA does not source GMO potatoes, nor do we have current plans to change our sourcing practices,” the company said in a statement. The USDA this month gave Boise-based Simplot permission to begin commercial planting cians and clinical teams delivered care in the right way and at the right time to ensure quality and improve outcomes, according to the hospital. West Valley was recognized for heart attack, pneumonia

of its new spud, called the “Innate” potato. The company altered the potato’s DNA so it produces less acrylamide, which is suspected to be a human carcinogen. Potatoes naturally produce the chemical when they’re cooked at high temperatures. The potato is also engineered to resist bruising. Simplot is a major supplier of french fries, hash browns and other potato products for restaurant chains like McDonald’s. Simplot spokesman Doug Cole didn’t address the company’s plans to sell to the fast-food industry or the dehydrated potato industry, which both have urged growers against planting GMO potatoes. and surgical care. West Valley also received the Heart Failure Gold Plus Quality Achievement Award from the American Heart Association and American Stroke Association.

Canyon County Fair receives honors Fair finishes strong in communications awards By ZACHARY CHASTAINE zchastaine@idahopress.com

© 2014 Idaho Press-Tribune

CALDWELL – Honors have been awarded to the Canyon County Fair in seven categories by the International Association of Fairs and Expositions. Among those wins were several first place finishes including best television spot, best single brochure, best outdoor billboard and best mobile website. The fair also took second place in best color newspaper ad and best social media campaign and best website. These awards were through the Hall of Honor Communication Awards. Submissions can be made to the association in several categories including agriculture, home arts exhibits and more. The association works as an industry resource for fairs of all sizes, and the submissions are judged by officials from the organization. The Canyon County Fair is a Division 1 fair, which includes fairs across the nation that have an attendance of up to 100,000 people. Submissions by the Canyon County Fair are judged against other fairs of that size. Fair administrator Rosalie Cope said communication submissions made up the majority of this year’s submissions. With the addition of a new in-house marketing coordinator, Laura Welch, the Canyon County Fair has been able to accomplish some good things such as a stronger social media presence, she said. “For (the) 2014 fair,

our advertising budget was about $34,000,” Cope said. “Last year was the first year we’ve hired an in-house marketing coordinator. And we’re starting to do so many things we could finally justify the costs. She has a lot of good skills, we’ve put her to use.” The results have paid off as the fair places with its communications submissions, and the Canyon County Fair is now being used as an example by the association for how to run an effective marketing campaign on a tight budget, as many fair management organizations must do. “(Welch has) actually been invited to be a workshop presenter,” Cope said. “We’re pretty excited.” Other work with the fair included a recent move by the fair’s partner, the Canyon County Farm Bureau, to help spread agriculture education to more people. During this year’s fair, the farm bureau set up a tent where people could make their own pancakes, but only after completing a scavenger hunt to find all of the ingredients. Hunters scoured the area looking for chickens to find eggs, wheat to grind into flour and milk from a dairy until they had everything they needed to make the pancakes. Cope said the farm bureau’s booth was successful and actually had to shut down early because they ran out of supplies. Welch will be going to Las Vegas to receive the fair’s awards in December during the association’s 124th annual convention.

LOCAL/REGIONAL NEWS

BOISE — A new crime rate report from the FBI shows that Idaho resort towns like Coeur d’Alene, Sun Valley and McCall had higher crime rates than most of Idaho’s other towns. According to the FBI’s 2013 numbers, McCall has one violent crime for every 190 residents, and one property crime for every 34 residents, Boise State Public Radio reported. That’s better than Coeur d’Alene, where the violent crime rate was one for every 179 residents and the property rate was one for every 26 residents. But both cities are much higher than Boise’s rate, which was one violent crime for every 357 residents and one property crime for every 45 residents. Kevin Wolff, who teaches criminal justice at John Jay College in New York, says it’s not uncommon for

resort towns to appear to have higher rates, because their populations swell during special events and the tourism season. The crime rate statistics don’t take into account the population changes during the year, he said. In the FBI report, McCall’s crime rate is based on a resident population of 2,800. McCall Police Chief Justin Williams says during certain times of the year, like peak summer weeks and during the annual Winter Carnival, the number can be 10 times that. The town sees enough tourism that there are never just 2,800 people in McCall, he said. The weekend tourists sometimes drink too much and get into fights, leading to police intervention and sometimes charges, Williams said. “We average about 10,000 people within the city at any given time,” Williams said.

Vacant building given new purpose Phantom gallery displays local artists’ work in Nampa By BOBBY ATKINSON batkinson@idahopress.com

© 2014 Idaho Press-Tribune

NAMPA — A vacant building in Downtown Nampa has taken on a new purpose as local artists display their work in the windows as part of Phantom Gallery Nampa. Sponsored by the Nampa Art Collective, the gallery has filled the former Nampa Floors building on Second Street South with art from seven local artists. Organizer Antonia Wynn said the phantom gallery, which she said was the first in Idaho, changes the landscape of downtown by filling the empty windows of a vacant building with local culture. “We’re just trying to change the outside perceptions of Nampa,” Wynn said. “We’re not some sleepy rural town. We have a lot of art and culture going on.” One of the artists with work on display is Francisco Telesfort, the son of internationally renowned Haitian artist Petion Savain. Telesfort’s Haiti-inspired paintings feature colorful depictions of memories from his childhood. “I started painting with (my dad) when I was 12 years old,” he said. “You can see the influence he had on my painting.” Telesfort has several paintings that will be on display, along with the other works, for the next six months or until the vacant building has new tenants. Carolyn Greener’s sculptures join Telesfort’s paintings and are on display in the corner window of the building. She said the phantom gallery is an opportunity for the artists to have their work seen

FBI releases annual Idaho crime rate report THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Idaho Press-Tribune • Sunday, November 16, 2014

Williams contends that if McCall’s crime rate were calculated using a population of 10,000, it would be among the lowest in Idaho. Most of the crimes that local police deal with are alcohol-related, he said. “Prior to coming here, I looked at the crime rates and had to do the research myself to determine whether or not it was someplace I wanted to raise my family,” Williams says. “But you have to look at the totality of it. The statistics speak loudly but they don’t speak loudly enough to tell the entire story.” Wolff says this is something other resort communities are worried about as well. He says researchers in Florida are just starting to consider ways to account for fluctuating populations when compiling crime stats for tourist areas. And they’re trying to figure out how to mitigate negative perceptions caused by current stats.

Carolyn Greener, of Nampa, sets up her Northwest style Native American art at the Phantom Gallery Saturday in downtown Nampa. by a wider audience. She also added that she hopes people see the art and recognize Nampa as a cultural destination. “We want to get people to know that Nampa has artists,” Greener said. “Nampa has a very eclectic mix of artists now. There’s wildly different styles.” Wynn said she hopes Phantom Gallery Nampa will continue after the six months are up. She hopes other vacant buildings will open their doors for local artists to display their art. By energizing Downtown Nampa’s art scene, Wynn said more businesses could be attracted to help reinvigorate the area. “Art is a beneficial economic factor in the community,” Wynn said. “It not only brings life to the area, it attracts people from outside the community to the area. … Art creates a community with a cultural feel to it.” The Nampa Art Commission also played a role to make the phantom gallery a reality. Wynn also said Aymee Michels helped secure the location to use for

After last year’s rocky start on the federal exchange, state officials are promising a smoother insurance shopping experience by using Idaho’s site. However, state-run exchanges are facing pressure to handle a surge of sign-ups. Last year, 76,000 Idaho residents enrolled for coverage within six

About three dozen demonstrators on Friday accused Saratoga Springs police of suppressing and lying about evidence surrounding the shooting of 22-year-old Darrien Hunt. They waved placards and shouted, “Stop killing our kids,” ‘’You killed Darrien,” ‘’Don’t shoot us in the back” and “Comply or die is not the law.” At one point, some protesters made their way inside the building where the department is housed and shouted similar messages. Barbara Huston, Hunt’s aunt, told Provo’s Daily Herald she believes there is footage from the body camera, but law enforcement authorities are withholding it.

Idaho school district will ask for sales tax money LEWISTON (AP) — The Lewiston School District plans to move forward with an attempt to allow sales taxes to pay for school construction, despite a rejection by the Idaho State School Board Association. The Lewiston Tribune reports a resolution calling for a change to Idaho Code that would allow a local option sales tax to pay for school construction bonds was defeated at the school board as-

sociation convention in Boise on Friday. Lewiston Superintendent Bob Donaldson says many voters who opposed the idea questioned why school districts should even have to pass such a measure, arguing the Legislature should pay instead. “A compelling interest was just that the state needs to come up with something that could provide relief for districts statewide,”

he said. “My sense was more the state needs to step up, the Legislature needs to step up, and come up with an answer to the facilities needs that districts like Lewiston have.” School construction traditionally is paid for with property tax increases approved by local voters. Lewiston voters rejected such proposals for a new high school in 2004, 2010 and 2011. A similar process was used

to fund the Nez Perce County Jail. The Idaho Legislature approved that local option sales tax in 2003, and collection of the half-cent sales tax approved by Nez Perce County voters in 2004 ended last month. “We’ll still move forward for sponsorship of a bill,” Donaldson said. “Or (be) looking for a senator who has a bill that would meet our needs.” One question was whether

raising the sales tax within a district’s borders would prove unpopular. “If you’re in an adjacent community and come into Lewiston and have to pay a sales tax, is that fair?” Donaldson said. “We’re feeling even more empowered that we’re going to make this work one way or the other. “We’re going to come up with a facilities solution.”

For Schandorff, downtown Nampa’s most pressing issue is improving pedestrian access, she said, and her votes were for things like wider sidewalks that would promote that. “These things all will help pedestrian access, and without pedestrian access, you won’t have businesses grow,” she said. “Pedestrian access is more important than parking, frankly.” Mike Gray, who owns a business in the north end of Nampa, said downtown is where he takes his daily walks for exercise. Gray said access for pedestrians is important, but so are the rights of the business and property owners, who may not want to sacrifice diagonal parking spaces in front of their businesses in order to make room for wider sidewalks. “There’s businesses downtown that have been here for 50 years, and they’re not going to want to change what they’re doing,” Gray said as he cast his vote for an option that allowed individual blocks to decide what their own aesthetics would be. “They

Bond Continued from A1 Mike Vuittonet, chairman of the West Ada School District, backed the idea. A $104 million bond issue failed in West Ada in August, despite receiving 63 percent backing. “It is not majority wins on this,” Vuittonet said.

WHAT’S NEXT The results of the public’s input will head to block meetings for discussion Nov. 20. Until then, the city is still accepting public comment via an online survey at surveymonkey.com/s/ CH88GJT. fought hard for this sidewalk or these parking spaces. I don’t want to make them change. Let people decide what they want to do with their block, with their area.” About halfway through the open house, the option Gray picked had a slight lead over the others, which included wide sidewalks and keeping everything as it is now. “That just speaks to the fact that there are a number of downtown merchants and property owners that would like to have space for outdoor dining, but not everyone does,” said Karla Nelson, a planner with the city of Nampa. “This one allows you to keep the diagonal parking and really be specific to a property owner’s needs or a business’ needs in terms of sidewalk space.”

“The minority can kill a bond for needed school facilities, even when hazardous conditions exist and people need to pass a bond to repair their schools.” To relax the supermajority threshold, two-thirds of the House and Senate would need to vote yes – and then a majority of voters would need to approve amending Idaho’s Constitution. Support was not unanimous.

“I farm and in my view, this supermajority is only protection a property owner has in your district,” Rockland School District trustee James Robinson said. ISBA members also passed a bond relief resolution, calling on the Legislature to amend the law to allow districts to impose a fee on new construction projects. West Ada trustees brought this proposal, saying the fees would allow for

growth to help pay for some of the costs to expand or build new schools. Under a 1 percent fee, West Ada officials estimated they could have collected about $16 million over the past six years and saved patrons another $7 million in interest on their proposed bond issue, saving $23 million off the $104 million price tag. That resolution passed 2,473-1,304, over the objection of homebuilders who

side. I loved it. I love the hiss of car tires on wet winter streets and the swirling snowflakes illuminated under streetlights. I love how even in the darkest hours of the night, the ambient light bounces off the freshly fallen snow and lights up the world in a kind of glow you never see any other time of year. Winters in my home state are longer and harsher than they are here, and that made their novelty wear off. It made me oblivious to their beauty. I was legitimately — and pleasantly — surprised to see that appreciation return. So, what now? Perhaps a visit to my homeland is in order? I haven’t set foot in Minnesota since leaving it a little over four years ago, and I’m not sure why. I still think of it as home. I’m sure I always will. But there’s some part of me that doesn’t want to go back, not even just to visit. Maybe a month ago, I could have blamed it on the state’s notoriously harsh winters, but as of this week, I know that’s not it. But unraveling that psychological Gordian knot is a topic for another day.

said fees would drive up the price of housing, to the detriment of families. Trustees voted down a third resolution, aimed at allowing districts to ask their residents to approve a local option sales tax for school construction. In other business Friday, Idaho Falls school board members pulled their resolution opposing the tiered licensure plan. On Thursday, the State Board of Education unani-

mously approved several changes to the tiered licensure proposal – including removing all performance standards and accountability measures from the professional tier for teachers with more than three years of experience. “(The State Board) should be commended,” Idaho Falls School Board Chairwoman Lisa Burtenshaw said. “Our resolution was addressed through the changes they made.”

Funding Continued from A1

“The gas tax was last increased in 1993 at the federal level, 1996 at the state,” he said. “Our buying power has significantly diminished, and as we’re coming out of the recession, we’re seeing costs are going up. What we’re finding with the federal program is we can’t rely on that federal program to fund all the projects.” According to Mollie McCarty, governmental affairs manager for the Idaho Transportation Department, states aren’t given their share, or apportionment, of the federal transportation bill, until late in the year. Instead, they’re told how much money to budget, but don’t find out until near the end of the fiscal year how much they’ll actually receive — their federal obligation authority. McCarty said the two numbers are normally close, but this year, Idaho received about 95 percent of the federal funding it had expected. “These are things that are variables — you don’t get to know these things early in the process, unfortunately,” McCarty said. But states that spend all of their federal obligation authority can become eligible to participate in redistribution of obligation authority, which means they become eligible for a share of unused funds from other states. Whether there is leftover money, and how much, McCarty said, varies from year to year. This year, Idaho received enough distribution funds to bring its federal funding levels to 100 percent of what was budgeted. The competition for extra funds can create ten-

sion between ITD and local entities, Stoll said. In the case of the safety project at the Karcher-Middleton intersection, miscommunication and the complex and developing nature of the situation added to that tension, he said. “We’re just not able to accomplish as much with the dollars coming in as we used to,” Stoll said. “And I think until you get some sort of revenue stream coming in, you’re still going to have this conflict going on as people are advocating for their individual projects and regions. We can improve the communication, but the public is still asking for improved infrastructure to help with their commutes, improved pavement conditions and safety, and the only way they’ll be able to get that is through additional revenue.” Since additional revenue is outside of ITD’s control, McCarty said the state is focusing on improving communication with local entities. “Certainly, you have a communication issue between two entities,” she said. “There needs to be clarity that it is a challenge when you have these kinds of situations you’re dealing with year after year. And you are oftentimes expecting to not be able to spend all of the money that is being apportioned to the state, it’s going to create these challenges, and we really do need to work together to get through them as carefully and cooperatively as we possibly can. We’re committed to do that.”

According to an email from Stoll to Nampa Mayor Bob Henry, that was a major factor in the state’s decision to use redistribution funds for other projects in other parts of the state, meaning redistribution funds could not reimburse Nampa’s contribution to the project. Stoll said Nampa competes for funding with other parts of the state that are in its same urban classification — Pocatello, Idaho Falls, Lewiston and Coeur d’ Alene. Redistribution funds went to projects in those cities, he said, add-

ing that it was a “good call” for Nampa to contribute funding to keep the project moving forward. “The city of Nampa said, ‘This is a critical project because of safety issues. We want to make sure it goes forward,’” Stoll said. Bids for the KarcherMiddleton intersection came in about $600,000 under engineering estimates, said Michael Fuss, public works director for the city of Nampa. That will allow the city essentially to get reimbursed for the money it contributed to the project, though a more likely scenario, Fuss said, is that the money will go to another road project that is projected to go over budget.

Despite law, Oregon cities pass pot tax. What now? By NIGEL DUARA The Associated Press

PORTLAND, Ore. — Cities scrambled to pass taxes on marijuana before a legalization measure went before voters. Their bet: That the taxes would get grandfathered in. But Measure 91, passed by voters on Nov. 4, has a clause forbidding any taxation on marijuana except by the state. Now, those cities say they are prepared to defend their taxes in court. Attorney Dave Kopilak helped draft the law and is studying the response. Ashland City Manager Dave Kanner was one of the first to propose such a tax, which passed in Ashland this year. Fairview Mayor Mike Weatherby was one of the supporters of his city’s 40 percent marijuana tax, which he says is intended to keep recreational pot dispensaries out of the city. Cities may opt out of hosting dispensaries, but Weatherby said the city is trying to “cover all of (its) bases.” One thing they all agree on is that the Legislature, sooner or later, will likely have to step in. Each took questions from The Associated Press. Their answers have been edited for clarity and length.

In this Nov. 5 photo, Shane McKee, co-founder of Shango Premium Cannabis medical marijuana dispensary, pulls a sample from their display of cannabis flowers in Portland, Ore.

IS THE TAX APPLICABLE UNDER THE LAW? KOPILAK: Somebody got it in their heads that if ordinances were adopted before Election Day, that there would be some sort of grandfathering in. That’s just not true. The imposition of such taxes is inconsistent with the main themes of Measure 91, which is to minimize the illegal market. If you have dozens and dozens of jurisdictions imposing all kinds of different taxes at different rates, it essentially makes any type of cohesive

state policy impossible. KANNER: When I first read the initiative language, it immediately seemed clear to me that the pre-emption language (prohibits) the adoption of a local tax in the future, but it does not repeal an existing tax. I realize that others may interpret it differently. There’s another section of the initiative that repeals any city ordinance or charter provision in conflict with the measure. However, the measure taxes production of marijuana, and our tax is a gross-receipts tax on retail sales. Therefore, I do not be-

lieve it is in conflict with the measure. Whether lawyers or the courts will agree with that, I don’t know.

WHAT WAS THE IMPETUS BEHIND THE TAX? KANNER: Ashland already has a food and beverage tax, so we had a template for a gross receipts tax on retail sales of marijuana. By the end of February, members of the City Council were asking me if we shouldn’t be considering a tax. WEATHERBY: The idea is to keep marijuana dispensaries out of Fairview. Abso-

Women make 4-man bobsled history in Utah Washington state health exchange shuts down THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

PARK CITY, Utah — Olympic champion Kaillie Humphries of Canada finished sixth and Olympic silver medalist Elana Meyers Taylor of the U.S. was seventh Saturday, becoming the first women to drive against men in an international four-man bobsled competition. Nick Cunningham of the U.S. drove to the win in the North American Cup race, one spot ahead of 2010 Olympic champion and fellow American Steven Holcomb. Meyers Taylor’s two-run time was

about a second behind Cunningham. Still, the historical significance of the day was not lost on the two-time Olympic medalist. “It’s hard to take it all in, because at the end of the day I’m a competitor and I always want to perform better,” Meyers Taylor said. “I’m a little disappointed with today’s finish, but at the same time I know that the importance of this moment will hit me later. It’s pretty cool.” Bobsled’s international governing body ruled this year that four-man sliding

will be considered gender neutral going forward, meaning women will have a chance to compete in four-man against males. It’s likely that Humphries and Meyers Taylor — generally considered the two strongest female pilots in the sport — will be the lone women on the World Cup circuit this winter. Although both are qualified for their respective national teams, they still need to satisfy experience requirements before getting cleared to race on the World Cup circuit.

SEATTLE — Washington’s health care exchange shut down after the first few hours of open enrollment Saturday as state officials and software engineers tried to resolve a problem with tax credit calculations. Officials at the exchange said Washington Healthplanfinder, which opened at 8 a.m., appeared to be working fine at first. When the exchange’s quality control system reported the problem, they decided to shut the whole system

down at about 10:30 a.m. to fix it. The tax credits were off by just a few dollars in some cases, exchange CEO Richard Onizuka said. He said the system would remain down until it can give consumers who want to buy health insurance accurate information. On Saturday afternoon, officials estimated the site wouldn’t reopen until this morning, but the actual timing will depend on how soon a software fix can be tested for potential sideeffects. Exchange officials could

not say how many people had signed up for insurance before the problem was discovered, but spokesman Michael Marchand said about 2,000 people were using the exchange each hour during the two hours it was open on Saturday morning. Officials decided to shut down the exchange — which was working well otherwise — instead of fixing the problem later because they learned after the previous open enrollment period that even small issues are difficult to fix after registrations are complete, Marchand said.

IG: $2B in disability claims approved by mistake By STEPHEN OHLEMACHER The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — A small group of Social Security judges have improperly approved disability claims for nearly 25,000 people who didn’t qualify, costing taxpayers $2 billion over the past seven years, government investigators conclude in a report being released Monday. The price tag will grow by nearly $300 million next year because many of these people are still getting benefits, the report said. Social Security’s office of inspector general is scheduled to release a report on the judges Monday. The Associated Press obtained a copy Friday. Investigators examined cases decided by 44 judges who had been approving disability claims at unusually high rates. The judges were labeled “outliers” because they had approved 85 percent of the claims they had heard in at least two of

the previous seven years. During these years, the judges decided at least 700 cases a year. The judges represent about 4 percent of the administrative law judges, or ALJs, who decide disability claims for Social Security, the report said. “The Social Security Administration’s failure to conduct timely medical eligibility reviews has resulted in rubber-stamped decisions that have and will continue to cost taxpayers billions in improper awards,” Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., said in a statement. “In failing to take meaningful disciplinary action at the Social Security Administration, even after the most egregious cases of mismanagement, taxpayers are left to wonder, who is looking after their tax dollars?” Issa, who chairs the House Oversight Committee, requested the inspector general’s investigation,

along with Rep. James Lankford, R-Okla., who chairs one of the panel’s subcommittees. “These results demonstrate the fact that our greatest concerns have been true for years,” Lankford said. “SSA has allowed ALJs to carry large case loads and has encouraged quantity over quality.” Social Security spokeswoman LaVenia J. LaVelle said it is important to note that administrative law judges have “qualified” independence in their decisions, “which allows them to issue decisions consistent with the law and agency policy, rather than decisions influenced by pressure to reach a particular result.” “The primary purpose for the ALJs qualified decisional independence is to enhance public confidence in the essential fairness of an agency’s decision-making process,” LaVelle said in a statement.

The report said the Social Security Administration has improved oversight of judges in the past several years, reducing the number of judges that approve claims at unusually high rates. The report also noted that 15 of the 44 judges have been disciplined, including one who was let go when his or her contract expired. None of judges was identified in the report. Once investigators identified the 44 judges who were approving large numbers of claims, they randomly selected 275 claims that had been approved by these judges. Of these cases, investigators determined that 38 should have been denied or dismissed. Another 108 should have been sent back to the judge for further consideration. In all, investigators found “quality issues” with 216 of the cases — nearly 80 percent. “Extrapolating these re-

sults to all the allowances by the 44 outlier ALJs over a 7-year period, we estimate these ALJs improperly approved disability benefits in approximately 24,900 cases, resulting in questionable costs of more than $2 billion,” the report said. Social Security has been swamped with disability claims in the past several years, as millions of baby boomers near retirement. At the same time, the agency has been working to reduce a backlog of claims. By the time disability cases reach an administrative law judge, the claims have been rejected at least once and often twice by workers in state offices. It is often easier for a judge to approve a claim than to deny it, said a report issued by the House Oversight Committee earlier this year. Denials can be appealed, so judges must meticulously document their reasons. Approvals are generally accepted, ending

the judge’s role in the case. The union that represents administrative law judges complains that Social Security pressures judges to decide between 500 and 700 cases a year. The agency says the threshold is a goal. D. Randall Frye is president of the Association of Administrative Law Judges and a judge in Charlotte, North Carolina. He said Friday that judges have to decide about two cases a day to meet what he calls a quota. Case files average about 500 pages, he said. “If you consider the fact that a judge is under extraordinary pressure from the agency to do numbers, then you can understand how some errors get made,” Frye said in an interview. “How many people can read and comprehend and understand and then conduct a hearing on the evidence in those thousand pages? It’s an enormous task.”

CHICAGO — When Blase Cupich was named the next archbishop of Chicago, he insisted that Pope Francis was sending the area a mere pas-

tor, not a message. Cupich has been sending very Francis-like messages, though, as he prepares to officially assume control of one of the country’s largest and most high-profile archdioceses on Tuesday. Among them were his decisions to

live in a simple rectory instead of the cardinal’s mansion and to not reveal to the man next to him on his recent flight into Chicago that he was about to become a spiritual leader for the area’s 2.2 million Catholics. “I would say the message

is that (Pope Francis) chose someone very pastoral ... and it’s a very important one,” said Cristina Traina, a professor of religious studies at Northwestern University. “The pope was saying he was looking for someone who will connect with people ... whose

emphasis is mercy, ministry, reaching out to the people and serving the poor.” She said it is not a coincidence that the pope appointed Cupich, the 65-year-old relatively unknown bishop of the much smaller Diocese in Spokane, Washington, to re-

place a conservative church heavyweight like the retiring Cardinal Francis George at around the time he was demoting another leading conservative, Cardinal Raymond Burke, from his position as head of the Vatican high court.

AURORA, Colo. (AP) — Aurora police said Saturday an officer who was shot during a traffic stop is expected to survive as the search continued for the person who stole an unattended car and shot the officer. Another officer returned fire Friday night, but it was not known if the suspect was wounded. Authorities said the officers did not know that the driver had just stolen the car a few blocks away after the owner had started the car

and left it running unattended, the Denver Post reported Saturday. The wounded officer was taken to University of Colorado Hospital where he was in surgery for several hours. He was in serious but stable condition and is expected to survive, according to a tweet by Aurora police. The officer’s name has not been released. The vehicle was found abandoned in the middle of the street

several blocks away. “We have no clue where this individual is,” police spokesman Frank Fania said Saturday. So-called “puffer” cars belching exhaust are left by drivers running unattended, usually in cold weather. Leaving a vehicle unattended is illegal. There was no information Saturday on what, if any, charges could be filed against the person who left the vehicle running. Police warned residents of

the neighborhood to stay in their homes and call 911 if they saw anything suspicious. Denver police and Jefferson County authorities assisted Aurora police. Dozens of officers flooded the area, searching cars and knocking on doors. A helicopter was called and police K-9 units aided in the search. Fania said police are now going over records of possible suspects.

Laughs, tears for U.Va. student Hannah Graham By MATTHEW BARAKAT The Associated Press

ham, a first for her, and her insistence on “bringing her own British chocolate because Hershey’s was not up to her standards.” Teacher Allison Satterwhite talked about how Graham relished the opportunity to correct her teachers in a way that still managed to be endearing, recalling a hallway encounter in which the teacher was lecturing a group of students for causing a commotion in the hallway. Graham happened by and let the teacher know that “disruptional” was not a word. “She had a great wit — it could be snarky at times but that’s what we loved about her,” said her band teacher, Steve Rice, who shared stories about Graham’s love of Elvis songs and her lighthearted annoyance at playing pieces that featured the clarinet section over the saxophones.

U.S. cities brace for protests following Ferguson decision By PHILIP MARCELO The Associated Press

BOSTON — From Boston to Los Angeles, police departments are bracing for large demonstrations when a grand jury decides whether to indict a white police officer who killed an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri. The St. Louis County grand jury, which has been meeting since Aug. 20, is expected to decide this month whether Officer Darren Wilson is charged with a crime for killing 18-year-old Michael Brown after ordering him and a friend to stop walking in the street on Aug. 9. The shooting has led to tension with police and a string of unruly protests there and brought worldwide attention to the formerly obscure St. Louis suburb, where more than half the population is black but few police officers are. For some cities, a decision in the racially charged case will, inevitably, reignite long-simmering debates over local police

relations with minority communities. “It’s definitely on our radar,” said Lt. Michael McCarthy, police spokesman in Boston, where police leaders met privately Wednesday to discuss preparations. “Common sense tells you the timeline is getting close. We’re just trying to prepare in case something does step off, so we are ready to go with it.” In Los Angeles, rocked by riots in 1992 after the acquittal of police officers in the videotaped beating of Rodney King, police officials say they’ve been in touch with their counterparts in Missouri, where Gov. Jay Nixon and St. Louis-area law enforcement held a news conference this week on their own preparations. “Naturally, we always pay attention,” said Cmdr. Andrew Smith, a police spokesman. “We saw what happened when there were protests over there and how oftentimes protests spill from one part of the country to another.”

In Las Vegas, police joined pastors and other community leaders this week to call for restraint at a rally tentatively planned northwest of the casino strip when a decision comes. Activists in Ferguson met Saturday to map out their protest plans. Meeting organizers encouraged group members to provide their names upon arrest as Darren Wilson or Michael Brown to make it more difficult for police to process them. In a neighboring town, Berkeley, officials this week passed out fliers urging residents to be prepared for unrest just as they would a major storm — with plenty of food, water and medicine in case they’re unable to leave home for several days. In Boston, a group called Black Lives Matter, which has chapters in other major cities, is organizing a rally in front of the police district office in the Roxbury neighborhood the day after an indictment decision.

Coal exec’s image looms in deadly blast case By JONATHAN MATTISE The Associated Press

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Facing criminal charges in the deadliest U.S. coal mine disaster in four decades, excoal baron Don Blankenship has fallen silent for the first time in a while. A gag order issued shortly after the 43-page indictment this week means Blankenship will have to hit pause on the defiant public relations campaign he’s waged since the 2010 explosion that killed 29 men at the Upper Big Branch Mine in Montcoal, West Virginia. The former Massey Energy CEO has vehemently denied all wrongdoing in the disaster. More than that, he’s spent his time attempting to remake his image from that of a profit-minded, mustachioed villain to a crusader for keeping miners safe. Even while under federal investigation, Appalachia’s long-established coal boss kept spreading his side of the story: I’m being targeted. It wasn’t my fault. “Rather than be honest after the explosion and attribute the explosion to the obvious causes the politicians and (the Mine Safety and Health Administration) launched a witch hunt,” Blankenship wrote on his

website earlier this year. Blankenship has blogged, tweeted, shot his own documentaries and taken TV interviews, even with outlets he considers biased. All of those communications dropped after his indictment Thursday, which accuses him of deliberately skirting safety laws, impeding federal enforcement officials and lying to the Securities Exchange Commission about safety practices, all to maximize profits. He could spend up to 31 years in prison. An attorney’s statement was all that followed from Blankenship, and it struck a familiar chord. “Don Blankenship has been a tireless advocate for mine safety,” attorney William W. Taylor III said. “His outspoken criticism of powerful bureaucrats has earned this indictment. He will not yield to their effort to silence him. He will not be intimidated.” For families and friends of victims, still hearing Blankenship’s rationales has ranged from nauseating to infuriating. This April, Blankenship released a documentary leading up to the fourth anniversary of Upper Big Branch. It dismissed the four investigations that found worn and

broken cutting equipment created a spark that ignited accumulations of coal dust and methane gas. Broken and clogged water sprayers then allowed what should have been a minor flare-up to become an inferno. Instead, it repeated an argument authorities have dismissed: natural gas in the mine, and not methane gas and excess coal dust, was at the root of the explosion. The documentary finishes with a photo collage of the deceased miners set to violin music. Some victims’ loved ones said they couldn’t bear it. “It’s pouring salt on an open wound,” Amber Herald, an Ohio resident whose friend Josh Napper died in the mine, said when the video came out. “Every day, (Blankenship) has a lie to tell. But to actually put it in a film and sit and lie, knowing what he’s done, I don’t know how

he does it.” After reading an indictment painting Blankenship as a bullish micromanager, elected officials only regretted that Blankenship was being treated too civilly. “In my view, Don Blankenship, and the mines he once operated, treated miners and their safety with callousness and open disregard,” U.S. Sen. Jay Rockefeller, D-West Virginia, said in prepared statement after the indictment. “As he goes to trial, he will be treated far fairer and with more dignity than he ever treated the miners he employed. And, frankly, it’s more than he deserves.” Throughout the investigation, Blankenship never wavered in his defiance. Asked by ABC News in April if he thought he’d be indicted, Blankenship said, “No,” with a chuckle. Did he ever cut corners on safety? “Never did.”

ALEXANDRIA, Va. — Hannah Graham was so smart that when her high school teacher was grading tests and came across a wrong answer, she would check the answer key and make sure there wasn’t some kind of mistake. As often as not, the answer key was wrong, not Graham. Stories about Graham’s intelligence, dry humor and an unbridled zeal for life abounded Saturday at a memorial service billed as a celebration of Graham’s life. Graham was a sophomore at the University of Virginia when she went missing in September near its campus, prompting a monthlong search that ended in tragedy. Her remains were found just miles from where she was last seen in Charlottesville. The teacher who shared that story, Nicole Borghard, told nearly 1,000 people gathered Saturday that teachers at West Potomac High School would scan their class rosters at the start of the school year, hoping for the opportunity to teach a student whose reputation preceded her, “the smart, sassy Hannah Graham.” A former hospital orderly, Jesse Matthew, has been charged with abducting Graham and could face additional charges. Authorities say DNA evidence has also linked Matthew to a 2005 sexual assault and the 2009 disappearance and death of Virginia Tech Student Morgan Harrington. The focus of the memorial at her former high school was on Graham and her life — the softball player, saxophonist and student with a buoyant personality and a droll British wit. She had moved to Virginia from England as a kindergartner. Friends Rachel Campbell and Hannah O’Neil remembered making s’mores over a campfire with Gra-

66, of Caldwell, died Monday, Nov. 10, 2014. His Memorial Service will be held Friday, Nov. 21, 2014 at 11:00 AM at Flahiff Funeral Chapel, Caldwell.

A look at Ebola treatment in the U.S. by numbers MARGERY A. BECK and MIKE STOBBE The Associated Press

OMAHA, Neb. — When Dr. Martin Salia arrived in Omaha from Sierra Leone, he became the 10th person with Ebola to receive treatment in the U.S. The 44-year-old surgeon traveled Saturday to the Nebraska Medical Center. Salia is a Sierra Leone citizen who lives in Maryland. He had been working at Kissy United Methodist Hospital in the Sierra Leone cap-

ital of Freetown when he fell ill. Last Monday, Salia tested positive for Ebola, which has killed more than 5,000 people and infected more than 14,000 in West Africa. His wife, Isatu Salia, said Friday that she had spoken with her husband earlier in the day and that he sounded weak but lucid and understood what was going on. A look at Ebola treatment in the US by the numbers:

NINE: Before

Salia’s

nine people with Ebola had received medical treatment in the United States, many of them aid workers. The first, Dr. Kent Brantly, returned to the U.S. in early August. The latest, Dr. Craig Spencer, left a New York City hospital on Tuesday. He fell ill with Ebola after returning from West Africa.

FIVE:

Five of the nine people already treated in the United States were — like Salia arrival, — diagnosed with Ebola in

West Africa and flown to the United States. They include three doctors, a medical aid worker and man who worked as a video journalist. The other four were diagnosed in the United States.

FOUR: Four U.S. hospitals have specialized treatment units for people with highly infectious diseases, including the largest one at the Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha. The others are at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta,

the National Institutes of Health near Washington and St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula, Montana. Salia is the third at the Omaha hospital; the Montana unit is the only one that hasn’t been used yet for an Ebola patient.

TWO: Two cases of Ebola have originated in the United States. Two Dallas nurses — Nina Pham and Amber Vinson — were infected while caring for a Liberian man

sick with the disease. Both of the nurses have recovered.

ONE: There has been only one Ebola death in the United States. Thomas Eric Duncan became sick days after arriving in Dallas from Liberia. He went to the emergency room at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital but was sent home, which the hospital has acknowledged was a mistake. He returned a few days later, was diagnosed with Ebola and died Oct. 8.

BRISBANE, Australia — With an eye on China, President Barack Obama and the prime ministers of Japan and Australia are poised to commit their countries to closer cooperation on security in the Asia Pacific region. But their scheduled meeting Sunday, the first since 2007 among leaders of the three allies, risked antagonizing Beijing after a week when Obama reached a surprising level of consensus with Chinese President Xi Jinping on climate change and trade, and Japan and China took steps to improve their relationship. China has viewed Obama’s efforts to deepen alliances with other countries in the region, particularly on security issues, as an attempt to counter

agreements were expected on increasing military cooperation and helping countries in Southeast Asia bolster their maritime capacity. Also expected was an announcement on cybersecurity, a further source of tension between the U.S. and China. Ebola and Islamic State militants were additional topics planned for discussion. Australia was Obama’s last stop on a weeklong trip that began in China and Myanmar. He arrived politically weakened at home by the Democratic Party’s election defeats Nov. 4. The president has tried to show the region’s leaders that he retained the ability to deliver on promises to deepen U.S. engagement in Asia and the Pacific, an effort he sees as a central part of his foreign policy.

Beijing’s rise. White House officials insisted that the three-way talks on the sidelines of the Group of 20 economic summit were not meant to send a message to China. But in advance of Obama’s meeting with Japan’s Shinzo Abe and Australia’s Tony Abbott, the president pressed China to “adhere to the same rules as other nations — whether in trade or on the seas.” “By virtue of its size and its remarkable growth, China will inevitably play a critical role in the future of this region,” Obama said Saturday in a speech at the University of Queensland. “And the question is, what kind of role will it play?” An Obama administration official said the threeway meeting had been in the works for a year and that

BAGHDAD — America’s top military leader arrived in Iraq on Saturday on a previously unannounced visit, his first since a U.S.-led coalition began launching airstrikes against the extremist Islamic State group. The visit by Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, came just two days after he told Congress that the United States would consider dispatching a modest number of American forces to fight with Iraqi troops against the extremist group. The Iraqi military and security forces, trained by the

U.S. at the cost of billions of dollars, melted away in the face of the group’s stunning offensive this summer, when it captured most of northern and western Iraq, including the country’s second-largest city Mosul. Dempsey said Thursday that Iraqi forces were doing a better job now, although an effort to move into Mosul or to restore the border with Syria would require more complex operations. He also told the U.S. House Armed Services Committee that America has a modest force in Iraq now, and that “any expansion of that, I think, would be equally modest.” “I just don’t foresee a circumstance when it would be in our interest to take this fight on ourselves with a large military contingent,” he said. Dempsey’s spokesman, Air Force Col. Ed Thomas, said the general planned to visit U.S. troops, commanders and Iraqi leaders. “The primary purpose of his visit is to get a firsthand look at the situation in Iraq, receive briefings, and get better sense of how the campaign is progressing.” The visit included talks in Baghdad with Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi and U.S. Ambassador Stuart E. Jones, Thomas said. Dempsey later flew to Irbil, capital of Iraq’s largely autonomous northern Kurdish region, where he met with Kurdish President

Massoud Barzani. Dempsey also visited the U.S. joint operations center in Irbil, got a briefing on the Kurdish offensive against the Islamic State group and held a town hall with deployed troops there, Thomas said. The Pentagon has plans to establish an expeditionary advise and assist center in Irbil where U.S. troops will provide assistance to Iraqi forces at the brigade and higher levels. The U.S. also is planning to set up a training site near Irbil. According to plans laid out last week, the U.S. expects to train nine Iraqi security forces brigades and three Kurdish Peshmerga brigades. Dempsey’s visit to Iraq comes a day after Iraqi forces drove Islamic State militants out of a strategic oil refinery town north of Baghdad, scoring their biggest battlefield victory yet. On Saturday, state television said government forces were in full control of the refinery, Iraq’s largest, which lies some 15 miles north of the town of Beiji. The loss of Beiji marks the latest in a series of setbacks for the jihadi group, which has lost hundreds of fighters to U.S.-led coalition airstrikes in Iraq and Syria, particularly in the group’s stalled advance on the Syrian town of Kobani. On Friday, activists there reported significant progress by the town’s Kurdish defenders.

Ban sought for animal testing on cosmetics

® 1183830

WASHINGTON (AP) — Hoping to build off recent bans in Europe and India, opponents of animal testing for cosmetics plan to make a big push for a similar prohibition in the United States. The effort could be a tough sell in a Republican-controlled Congress. Virginia Democrat Don Beyer is expected to take the lead on the issue when the new Congress convenes next January. He is succeeding retiring Rep. Jim Moran, D-Va., who has introduced legis-

lation that would prohibit testing cosmetic products on animals, as well as the sale of any new cosmetics if the final product or any component was developed using animal testing. “The United States must be a world leader and not a follower,” Beyer told supporters in a campaign email highlighting the issue. His state is home to several cosmetic companies, such as Tri Tech Laboratories of Lynchburg, a custom manufacturer of personal care products. C M Y K

Space agency: Now-silent lander does main tasks By KIRSTEN GRIESHABER The Associated Press

BERLIN — The pioneering lander Philae completed its primary mission of exploring the comet’s surface and returned plenty of data before depleted batteries forced it to go silent, the European Space Agency said Saturday. “All of our instruments could be operated and now it’s time to see what we got,” ESA’s blog quoted lander

manager Stephan Ulamec as saying. Since landing Wednesday on comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko some 311 million miles away, the lander has performed a series of scientific tests and sent reams of data, including photos, back to Earth. In addition, the lander was lifted on Friday by about 1.5 inches and rotated about 35 degrees in an effort to pull it out of a shadow so

that solar panels could recharge the depleted batteries, ESA’s blog said. ESA spokesman Bernard von Weyhe on Saturday confirmed the lander’s difficult rotation operation. It’s still unclear whether it succeeded in putting the solar panels out of the shade. Even if the lander was rotated successfully and is able to recharge its batteries with sunlight, it may take weeks or months until it will

send out new signals. Regular checks for signals will continue. The agency did not schedule any media briefings on Saturday. ESA’s mission control center in Darmstadt, Germany, received the last signals from Philae on Saturday morning. Before the signal died, the lander returned all of its housekeeping data as well as scientific data of its experiments on

the surface — which means it completed the measures as planned, the ESA blog said. During a scheduled listening effort on Saturday ESA received no signals from Philae, ESA’s mission chief Paolo Ferri told The Associated Press. “We don’t know if the charge will ever be high enough to operate the lander again,” Ferri had told The AP ahead of the 5 a.m. EST

listening time. “It is highly unlikely that we will establish any kind of communication any time soon.” Now it’s up to ESA’s team of scientists to evaluate the data and find out whether the experiments were successful — especially a complex operation Friday in which the lander was given commands to drill a 10-inch hole into the comet and pull out a sample for analysis.

G-20 summit opens in Australia; growth tops agenda

BRISBANE, Australia (AP) — Australia’s prime minister vowed that world leaders would deliver on an initiative to add $2 trillion to global GDP, promising freer trade and more investment in infrastructure as heads of the 20 largest economies began cementing plans to drag sagging growth out of

the doldrums. Prime Minister Tony Abbott, who has repeatedly promised this year’s Group of 20 gathering in the Australian city of Brisbane would be more than a talkfest, said the growth plans would add millions of jobs and boost global GDP by “more than 2 percent”

above expected levels over the next five years. “That is millions of jobs and trillions of dollars in extra production,” Abbott said as he officially opened the two-day G-20 conference. “Yes, we want freer trade and we will deliver it. Yes, we need more infrastructure and we will build it.”

“This is our message to the world: that governments can deliver, that governments can agree that the world can be better, that there can be higher jobs, higher growth and more jobs,” he added. G-20 nations, which represent 85 percent of the global economy, are under pres-

sure to take definitive action at this year’s summit, rather than simply producing a set of vague, unmeasurable goals. The International Monetary Fund has warned about a “new mediocre” for the world economy, putting renewed focus on the G-20’s growth initiative. Each country is expected

to present a comprehensive plan at the summit on how they will achieve their contribution toward the $2 trillion goal, but whether the communique that will be issued at the conclusion of the gathering on Sunday will reveal any of those details is unclear. World GDP this year is about $77 trillion.

Official: witnesses in army slaying wrongly jailed KATHERINE CORCORAN and E. EDUARDO CASTILLO The Associated Press

MEXICO CITY — Two survivors of a mass slaying by Mexican soldiers who have been jailed for weapons possession are innocent and should be released immediately, the outgoing president of the National Commission on Human Rights says. Raul Plascencia told The Associated Press that the two women, who his commission says were tortured and sexually threatened into backing the army’s version of the incident, were not affiliated with the 22 suspected gang members who were killed. Rather, they were prostitutes hired to accompany a leader of the group that met in an abandoned warehouse in southern Mexico on June 29. The leader was one of two men who escaped from the troops early on June 30. The women’s detention is a violation of their human rights, said Plascencia, who oversaw the commission’s investigation of the bloodshed and is leaving the rights post Saturday. The army originally claimed all 22 suspects died in a fierce shootout. The two women, along with a third witness, have testified to authorities that most of the suspects had surrendered and were unarmed when they were shot by soldiers.

HONG KONG (AP) — Three Hong Kong students who have led protests for greater democracy in the former British colony were denied in their attempt Saturday to go to Beijing to meet with top Chinese officials. Alex Chow, Nathan Law and Eason Chung — members of a student group that played a main role in organizing massive street protests that started nearly two months ago — arrived at the Hong Kong airport greeted by dozens of well-wishers holding up yellow umbrellas. But they were denied boarding passes for a Cathay Pacific flight when they were told their documents that would allow them to travel to Beijing were invalid. “The Cathay Pacific has confirmed ... that the (students) got their return-home cards cancelled by the mainland authority, so they cannot get the required certificates to get onto the plane,” said Yvonne Leung, general secretary of Hong Kong Federation of Students. In a news conference hours later, the student leaders said annulling their travel documents is an unreasonable move that deprives them of their rights to enter the country’s territory. C M Y K

Idaho Press-Tribune

Broadband mess is embarrassing Wonderfully successful Idaho Education Network shouldn’t pay price for what is evidently lax contract-awarding process

If you followed the race for Idaho governor carefully, you probably noticed that Democrat challenger A.J. Balukoff took Republican Gov. Butch Otter to task over a pair of state contracts that have come back to embarrass Idaho officials — the one with Corrections Corporation of America to run the state prison (the state has since ended the arrangement due to CCA’s atrocious mismanagement) and the contract with Qwest to provide broadband in Idaho’s public schools. The prison contract seemed like a good deal at the time to budget-conscious minds who thought the state could save a little money by privatizing the lockup. But multiple scandals involving the way the prison was run — dangerous conditions for inmates, improper overtime billing practices — and the controversial way the state went about dealing with them brought the arrangement crashing down in a noisy mess. Now a judge has voided the broadband contract, saying the Department of Administration violated Idaho’s procurement law. The state has had to spend close to $1 million in legal fees alone and might have to repay the Federal Communications Commission $15 million more. The FCC helped fund part of the contract as part of a program to expand broadband access across the country. This is an embarrassment, and all

Idahoans have the right to demand a better, more stringent process for awarding contracts. Idaho legislators, when you convene for the 2015 session in two months, you need to create better guidelines so these things don’t happen again. What’s so egregious about this is that the Idaho Education Network, which has been a wonderful success story, is left holding the bag. Declo High School Principal Roland Bott told the Associated Press that he’s afraid his students won’t be able to graduate because there’s no backup plan for them to take the required math course they need for graduation if the network is shut off. Idaho is a mostly rural state with a lot of students living in remote areas. The IEN has opened educational opportunities for them they couldn’t have without it. A teacher in the Treasure Valley can sit at one computer while a student in North Idaho can sit at another, and it’s as though they’re working in the same classroom together. And this contract disaster could also jeopardize some of governor’s education task force recommendations if it diverts funding from them when lawmakers gather at the Statehouse this winter. Idaho needs a statewide broadband system to educate its students. It also needs a competent process for awarding contracts to prevent this kind of turmoil in the future. Legislators have their work cut out for them. Our view is based on the majority opinions of the Idaho PressTribune editorial board. Members of the board are Publisher Matt Davison, Editor Scott McIntosh, Opinion Editor Phil Bridges and community members Marie Baker, Autumn Short, Bruce Krosch, Richard Maffei and Scott Hogan.

How IEN has helped Idaho students

Somewhere in the election-year skirmishes over the Idaho Education Network, something was lost. What we’ve forgotten is that Idaho took an important step six years ago, and Idaho students are reaping the benefits today. Now is not the time to go backward when it comes to technology in schools. The goal of the IEN was simple: To provide every K-12 school with equitable access to a full range of educational opportunities for its students and administrative applications for its staff. Many rural districts like ours did not have enough bandwidth to run a dozen computers, let alone classroom sets or one-to-one devices for multiple grades. Education Networks of America found a way to deliver Internet access to students and their teachers so that they could take advantage of all the opportunities the modern classroom could offer. ANDREW GROVER Today, the IEN now serves nearly 197,000 students at more than 530 schools across Idaho. Teachers, administrators and, most importantly, students, now rely on the IEN to further their education. In the Melba School District we now have a district-wide wireless system, one-to-one classrooms for grades 6 through 8, multiple computer labs, and all in all, over 800 machines currently working and tied to the Internet. Part of the program is access to technical support and managed network expertise from Education Networks of America, the telecommunications service provider the state contracted with to build the IEN. Throughout this process ENA has been a trusted partner. The company’s local and national support team understands the unique needs of districts like ours and supports and assist us when we need it. But while students are making good use of the resource and asking for more, the adults are making things difficult. … I’m grateful that the Idaho Legislature found a way to keep the IEN going in the wake of this temporary holdup, and experience from several other states tells us that once the lawsuit goes away, Idaho is likely to get the funding that’s been on hold. It can’t happen soon enough. While the adults are bickering about the money, Idaho’s students are busy connecting to rich online resources via the IEN. In Melba, our students take over 100 dual-credit courses; we instruct students in Northern Idaho when needed and allow access to any community group that needs to use our technology. The ability to access college credit courses and engage in distance learning opportunities and networking with classrooms and resources across the state and all over the world is amazing, and we are taking advantage of it. We can’t let melodrama stop an essential program, one that is changing lives for the better across Idaho. I know the students and families at my school are grateful for the IEN. We are grateful for Idaho’s vision. Now it’s time to get back to the work of serving Idaho’s future, our students.

The princimembers. pal remains untouched so as to Events like Thursday’s generate future earnings.

Announced at Thursday’s dinner was the naming of an ambitious $40 million fundraising campaign, the Jim and Linda Everett Access for All Endowment Fund, named after longtime Treasure Valley Y CEO Jim Everett and his wife. Jim Everett has been with the YMCA for 40 years, having started as a swim coach at a Y in Ohio, and has been the Treasure Valley YMCA CEO for the past 28 years. It likely will be hard for many people to imagine the Treasure Valley Y without him as the CEO, but he has announced that this fundraising campaign will be his last. He spoke emotionally Thursday night about the Y members and friends who have died over the past year. His love of the organization and the people involved was clear, especially when he says he considers

himself the richest man in the world and the luckiest for getting to meet all the wonderful people he has come in contact with through the Y. The keynote speaker of the evening was Tommy Ahlquist, CEO of Gardner Co., the development company that built the West Valley Medical Office Complex in Caldwell and Nampa’s Library Square. Ahlquist gave a great speech, including — and perhaps especially because of — a video of his “Granny” reading a poem, “If you want to have a good time, just give something away.” But what stuck with me was his quote that, while you may think you hit a triple, really you were born on third base. In the context of the evening, as we dined on sirloin and sipped wine on the 17th floor of the Zions Bank building while listening to

stories of children from abusive environments, drug houses and homeless shelters, it rang particularly true. I like to think I’ve worked very hard for all of my successes, and I have. But in a lot of ways, compared with those whose stories we heard that night, I was born on third base. All in all, it was an inspirational evening. I’m sure we’ll have more details in the coming days and weeks about the Access for All fund, but I’m ready to donate, and I’ll encourage you to donate, as well.

method of grinding them up and cooking them down into a syrup and then refining that syrup into sugar, there is no trace of any genetic modification of the plant left. The same is true with all of the other genetically modified crops that are processed into food products also to include meat and dairy products. When livestock are brought into the equation, the ability to label products becomes slightly more complex. Some state ballot measures would have required labeling of products that come from livestock that consumed genetically modified feed. Others would not. This is where the complexity of labeling food gains momentum and turns voters off. Livestock producers have been feeding cattle, sheep, hogs and chickens

genetically modified corn and soybean meal for over 20 years now. Genetically modified feed makes up a significant percentage of the feed produced in the USA. Science can’t tell the difference between meat, milk, cheese and other products that came from cows that ate genetically modified feed and products that came from livestock that didn’t. And if genetically modified feed caused health problems in livestock, as some labeling advocates allege, it would surely have surfaced by now — it’s been over 20 years after all. One of the problems with individual states adopting labeling legislation is that the country would wind up with a patchwork of different laws. This would put a lot of strain on companies that package, transport and distribute our food, which would add cost for consumers. There are several other problems that arise from labeling food that has no discernable difference from other food. However, for consumers who want to avoid food products that contain GMO ingredients, following are a few simple rules: Shop around the outside aisles in the grocery store and avoid processed foods. Livestock feed and ethanol make up the bulk of the end products derived from genetically modified crops in this country. There are very few genetically modified fruits and vegetables available at the present time. Get to know local farmers by shopping at farmers markets, ask them questions about their production methods and buy meat and dairy products locally. Take an active role in understanding where your food comes from and how it’s produced and you’ll soon realize that more government intervention in our lives is rarely if ever a good thing to advocate. n

SECOND-HALF HEROICS

Boise State’s Jay Ajayi rushes the ball against San Diego State on Saturday at Albertsons Stadium in Boise. Ajayi rushed for 134 yards.

Broncos stay in control of Mountain West title destiny By B.J. RAINS bjrains@idahopress.com

BOISE — The Boise State football team sure likes to make things difficult. A week after overcoming a 14-point deficit to pick up a win at New Mexico, the Boise State football team rallied from a 20-0 hole

in the first half Saturday night for a 38-29 win at Albertsons Stadium on Saturday night. The victory keeps Boise State (8-2, 5-1 MW) in control of its own destiny for a spot in the Mountain West title game with two regular season games remaining. Boise State running back Jay Ajayi fueled the comeback, rushing for 108 of his 134 yards and three touchdowns in the second half as the Broncos pulled off

their biggest turnaround since at least 2001. After getting dominated for a good portion of the first half, the Broncos used 10 quick points late in the second quarter to turn a 20-point deficit into a 20-10 score at the half. And much like last week in Albuquerque, the second half belonged to Boise State. The defense held the Aztecs to 131 yards and nine points in the second half and

the offense erupted for 28 points as the Broncos won for the fifth straight time. The win was payback for Boise State, which lost to the Aztecs in each of the past two seasons — including an overtime defeat last November that kept the Broncos out of the Mountain West title game. But for a while, it looked like San Diego State was going to make it three in a row. And it was

a Boise State special teams play that might have turned the tide. With the Broncos trailing 23-10 and facing a fourth-and-4 at their own 32-yard line, Chris Santini took a direct snap on a fake punt and ran 24 yards to the right for a first down. Ajayi followed with a 5-yard run to cap a 12-play, 74yard drive that cut the San Diego State lead to 23-17.

The first football season in 37 years for the College of Idaho concluded Saturday with a 69-12 defeat against perennial powerhouse Carroll College at Nelson Stadium in Helena, Montana. Riggins native Dustin Rinker rushed for 170 yards and four touchdowns, leading the No. 2-ranked Fighting Saints to their second-straight Frontier Conference title and 14th in the past 15 seasons. Carroll (9-1, 9-1 FC) scored the final 55 points of the game in securing the league’s automatic berth to the NAIA Football Championship Series. “Games like this show we’ve got a long way to go,” C of I football coach Mike Moroski said. “It’s a long process. We’ve got a ways to go before we can be on even ground with these guys.” The Yotes (4-7, 3-7 FC) lost their fifth straight game. C of I junior quarterback Teejay Gordon scored his 15th rushing touchdown on a 2-yard run in the opening quarter to tie Rich Maggard’s single-season record set in 1957.

Seattle Pacific’s Danny Olivas booted home a penalty-kick goal to lift the Falcons to a 2-1 win over the Northwest Nazarene men’s soccer team in the second round of the NCAA Division II National Tournament on Saturday at Interbay Stadium. The win ends a season that saw the Crusaders (15-4-1 overall) earn a variety of firsts, including a first-ever trip to nationals and a first-ever win at nationals. “We feel aggrieved by the way it ended, but after that emotion, what I really feel is pride,” NNU seventh-year coach Coe Michaelson said in a press release. Riding the momentum of a 1-0 openinground victory over Simon Fraser on Thursday, the Crusaders looked to upend the topseeded Falcons (16-1-2) on their own turf. But it was SPU that struck early as Jordan Kollars scored 9 minutes, 48 seconds into the contest. The Crusaders pushed the attack and finally found the equalizer when Fredy Razo took a long pass forward from Julio Castillo and Razo beat Falcons goalkeeper Cody Lang with 2:29 left until halftime, tying the game, 1-1.

Wilder’s Fernando Lemus runs the ball after a catch during the 1A state semifinal football game against Carey Saturday at Mountain View High. Wilder won 39-22.

Wilder runs into 1A Division II final

Tony Stewart still hobbles a bit by a lingering limp in his surgically repaired right leg. He’s sluggish on foot, in his car, and stumbling through what will undoubtedly go down as the worst year of his storied career. His 15-year winning streak will likely end in today’s season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway. Stewart missed three races after his sprint car struck and killed a young racer in an August accident in New York, and his grief over the incident stayed with him for several months. Add in his struggles with NASCAR’s current rules package, the persistent pain in his leg, and Stewart needs the season to end so he can hit the reset button.

MERIDAN — A.J. Castellanos is used to putting up numbers that make other people’s jaws drop. But when the Wilder quarterback found out how many rushing yards he had late in Saturday’s 39-22 win against Carey in the 1A Division II state semifinal, even he was surprised. After Castellanos ran 33 yards with less than two minutes left for his fifth rushing touchdown of the game, the public address announcer at Mountain View High announced that the senior had rushed for 336 yards. Standing on the sidelines, the announcement caught Castellanos off guard. “I thought I hit 200, maybe,” said Castellanos, who also had 119 yards on 6-of-10 passing. “I didn’t realize I hit 300. I give it all to the linemen.” The Wildcats (9-1) advance to next week’s state championship game, where they will face Lighthouse Christian of Twin Falls at Holt Arena in Pocatello. Time and date of the game have not been announced. “We knew it was going to be really tough,” Wilder coach Kyle DalSoglio said. “This team’s really capable. They run the ball well, their quarterback (Nate Adamson) is a stud. Our goal was to contain him and make him beat us. Offensively, we just wanted to do what we do best, that’s run the ball.” Wilder will be looking to win its first state title since 1988. “It hasn’t hit me yet,” said Castellanos. “It’s unrealistic. This has been our big goal the whole year, and it’s finally

ROGER FEDERER Roger Federer saved four match points on Saturday to ensure the most successful player at the ATP Finals will take on the best player of the season in a mouthwatering final. Federer, a six-time champion, fought for nearly three hours to reach a ninth final in a thrilling 4-6, 7-5, 7-6 (6) win over his Davis Cup teammate Stan Wawrinka. The 17-time Grand Slam champion will face top-ranked Novak Djokovic today.

Adamson threw for 220 yards, but for the most part Wilder was able to keep the Panthers’ offense in check. Carey drove into the red zone on the opening drive of the game, but Adamson threw an incomplete pass on fourth down, and nine plays later Castellanos scored his first touchdown of the game. Carey took its only lead of the game with 27 seconds left in the first quarter, but on the first play of the second quar-

ter Castellanos broke free for a 77-yard run, his longest of the day to put Wilder in the lead for good. Carey wasn’t able to get much going offensively after that, scoring only on a pair of runs by Matt Whitworth. Oscar Puga had an interception on Carey’s final drive, and Wilder was able to kneel out the clock from there. “It’s slippery out here, so just coming under control and breaking down,” DalSoglio said about the focus of his defense. “Making tackles when we can, and making them early. Not giving up big plays is what we focused on a lot.”  Additional state football tournament coverage, B5

ADRIAN PETERSON Potential discipline for Minnesota Vikings running back Adrian Peterson under the NFL personal conduct policy has become more complicated and contentious. The league said Saturday that Peterson declined to meet about his case Friday, so it proceeded with a review without him. The NFL also said it was unwilling to postpone the hearing beyond this week, citing the NFL Players Association’s stated desire to resolve the situation promptly. Peterson has been on paid leave for two months. He pleaded no contest Nov. 4 to misdemeanor reckless assault in Texas for hitting his 4-yearold son with a wooden switch.

49ers lose another defender in Ward for season NFL NOTEBOOK THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SAN FRANCISCO — The San Francisco 49ers lost another key defender for the remainder of the season, placing rookie nickel cornerback and top draft pick Jimmie Ward on injured reserve Saturday with a foot injury. It has been a tough week for the defense ahead of today’s road game against the New York Giants. Ward was hurt in last Sunday’s overtime win at New Orleans, and it’s the same foot that needed surgery in March for a Jones fracture. Ward joins seven-time Pro Bowl linebacker Patrick Willis on season-ending injured reserve. Willis’ season was ended Tuesday, and the team announced he would need surgery for a strained muscle in his left big toe. He was injured in the third quarter at St. Louis on Oct. 13. The 49ers (5-4) filled Ward’s roster spot with star linebacker Aldon Smith, who was added to the 53-man roster from the

Jameis Winston completed 25 of 42 passes for 304 yards for the Seminoles (10-0, 7-0 Atlantic Coast Conference, No. 3 CFP), who extended its winning streak to 26 games and beat Miami for the fifth straight time. The Seminoles clinched the ACC’s Atlantic Division title earlier in the day when Clemson lost. They were down 16-0 and 23-7 before outscoring the Hurricanes 23-3 in the final 2 1/2 quarters. Brad Kaaya threw for 316 yards and two touchdowns for Miami, which got to the Florida State 43 on their final drive but fell short when Jalen Ramsey intercepted a fourth-down pass with 39 seconds left.

Chris Hackett’s interception with 3:26 left in the game sealed the victory. Michael Cummings had 332 yards and two touchdowns passing for the Jayhawks (3-7, 1-6), who were trying for their first regular-season win over a top-five team since beating Colorado in 1995. NO. 8 OHIO STATE 31, MINNESOTA 24: J.T. Barrett threw for three touchdowns and ran for an Ohio State quarterback-record 189 yards and another score, helping the Buckeyes overcome three turnovers and wintry weather.

NO. 12 MICHIGAN STATE 37, MARYLAND 15: Jeremy Langford ran for 138 yards and two touchdowns, and Michigan State received a strong performance from its defense. Riley Bullough scored on a 22-yard interception return to help the Spartans (8-2, 5-1 Big Ten, No. 12 CFP) bounce back from last week’s disheartening 49-37 loss to Ohio State. Michigan State picked off three passes, allowed only 6 yards rushing and sacked Maryland (6-4, 3-3) quarterback C.J. Brown three times. NORTHWESTERN 43, NO. 15 Notre Dame 40, OT: Northwestern’s (4-6) Jack Mitchell kicked a 45-yard field goal with 19 seconds left to force overtime and then kicked a 41-yard field goal for the upset against Notre Dame (7-3, No. 18 CFP). The Wildcats closed to 40-37 with 4:10 left on a 6-yard touchdown run by quarterback Trevor Siemian and a two-point conversion on a run by Warren Long after Notre Dame was called for pass interference. NO. 17 ARIZONA 27, WASHINGTON 26: Casey Skowron kicked a 47-yard field goal as time expired to give Arizona (8-2, 5-2 Pac-12, No. 14 CFP) a wild victory over Washington (6-5, 2-5).

Bengals’ late rally falls short Idaho State The Associated Press

BOZEMAN, Mont. — Backup quarterback Jake Bleskin threw for 302 yards and two touchdowns to lead Montana State to a key 44-39 win over Idaho State on Saturday. Bleskin, who is filling in for prolific starter Dakota Prukop, was informed last Sunday that he would start, but MSU didn’t announce that until just before the game. “(Assistant) Coach (Tim) Cramsey told Jake to ‘Get ready’ on Sunday and Jake said, ‘I’m already ready,’” MSU head coach Rob Ash said. “He really stayed locked in all year. He was always on point at practice, and on Thursday he’s completed 100 percent of his passes.” The Bengals (5-2, 7-4) came out hot scoring 30 first half points with touchdowns on their four drives, but MSU’s defense stiffened just before half to hold ISU to a field goal and the momentum carried over. MSU (6-1, 8-3) forced turnovers on ISU’s first two possessions of the second half, while the Bobcat’s offense scored after each miscue to take a 37-30

Montana State running back Chad Newell is tackled by Idaho State defensive back Vai Peko Saturday in Bozeman, Mont. lead. Playing with backups at four of its six skill positions, MSU was still able to generate 568 total yards. “The next guy up is always ready to go,” Bleskin said. “Around here the next guy up is pretty good.” All six of MSU’s touch-

downs were scored by players that weren’t starting when the season began. Anthony Knight led the way with three running scores, while fellow running back Chad Newell ran in another. True freshman receiver Mitchell Herbert caught Bleskin’s first touchdown pass and tailback Gunnar Brekke

caught the other on a thirdand-22 play from the ISU 24. “We’ve got a stable of running backs,” Bleskin said, while noting starter Shawn Johnson is out. The Bobcats still need to win against rival Montana next week to ensure a spot in the FCS playoff field.

No. 4 Alabama 25, No. 1 Mississippi State 20: Blake Sims, T.J. Yeldon and No. 4 Alabama’s relentless defense delivered on a big stage, and the Crimson Tide held off No. 1 Mississippi State on Saturday. The Tide (9-1, 6-1 Southeastern Conference, No. 5 CFP) reasserted itself as a national title contender with a dominant first half and some clutch play in the fourth quarter. Dak Prescott and the Bulldogs (9-1, 5-1, No. 1 CFP) kept fighting to keep their first-ever reign going for a sixth week. They couldn’t conquer Alabama at raucous Bryant-Denny Stadium, though. Mississippi State scored early in the fourth to make it a six-point game, but Sims and Yeldon answered with a steady march to the end zone. The Bulldogs produced a touchdown with 15 seconds left after a drive that took 3 precious minutes off the clock. Alabama recovered the onside kick to secure its seventh straight win in the series.

Vandals give up big plays to Troy, fall in home finale West Football The Associated Press

MOSCOW — Brandon Silvers passed for two touchdowns and Jordan Chunn ran for another Saturday to lead Troy to a 34-17 win over Idaho. Silvers was 19 of 25 for 231 yards, with scoring passes of 41 yards to Bryan Holmes on the opening drive, and a 51-yarder to Holmes for a 24-17 halftime lead. Holmes had six catches for 97 yards. Troy (3-8, 3-4 Sun Belt) never trailed and outgained Idaho (1-9, 1-6) 524-386. Chunn gained 193 yards on 28 carries and scored on a 13yard run. Ryan Kay had field goals of 40 and 20 yards. Troy’s Montres Kitchens picked off a pass by Matt Linehan and returned it 27 yards for the Trojans’ final TD. Linehan threw a 64-yard TD pass to Joshua McCain and was 14 of 36 for 269 yards and three interceptions. Jerrel Brown scored on a 1-yard run and Austin Rehkow kicked a 23-yard field goal. Air Force 45, Nevada 38, OT:

Shayne Davern ran for two touchdowns, including the decisive score in overtime, and Air Force hung on to beat Nevada on Saturday. Kale Pearson matched his career high with three touchdown passes, two to Jalen Robinette, and ran for a key fourthquarter score for Air Force (8-2, 4-2 Mountain West), helping the Falcons remain unbeaten in five games at home this season. Don Jackson ran for 123 yards and three touchdowns for Nevada (6-4, 3-3), which saw its three-game winning streak snapped. The Wolf Pack also lost wide receiver Hasaan Henderson to injury. Henderson had just made a 6-yard catch late in the fourth quarter and was brought down hard on a field partially covered with snow. He lay motionless and the game was stopped for several minutes while medical personnel tended to him. He was strapped to a backboard, lifted gingerly onto a gurney and wheeled off the field. There was no immediate

word on the nature of the injury. Utah State 28, New Mexico 21: Kent Myers threw for 150 yards and a touchdown in Utah State’s victory over New Mexico on Saturday. Myers did it with 13-of-21 passing for the Aggies (8-3, 5-1 Mountain West Conference). JoJo Natson, Devonte Robinson, and LaJuan Hunt each ran for a score. Robinson’s 59-yard scoring run was his only carry of the day and gave the Aggies a 14-7 lead early in the second quarter. Two plays into New Mexico’s next possession, Romell Jordan ran 72 yards for a Lobos touchdown. A Myers scoring pass to Wyatt Houston followed and the Aggies had a 21-14 advantage at the break. Lamar Jordan threw for 154 yards and a score for the Lobos (3-7, 1-5). His 59-yard pass to Tyler Duncan brought New Mexico to within seven with 4:17 remaining. Hawaii 13, San Jose State 0: Hawaii snapped a 17-game road losing streak and a four-game skid by shutting out San Jose

State on Saturday. The victory was the first road win for coach Norm Chow at Hawaii (3-8, 2-4 Mountain West). The Warriors last win on the road was at Idaho in October 2011. It was Hawaii’s first shutout win since a 2005 win, also at Idaho. San Jose State (3-7, 2-4) almost doubled Hawaii’s total yards on offense (462-240) and had a 24-11 edge in first downs, but the Spartans could not score, missing three field goal attempts, dropping a pass in the end zone and having a second intercepted in the end zone. BYU 42, UNLV 23: Christian Stewart threw for 325 yards and three touchdowns to lead BYU over UNLV on Saturday. BYU led 21-13 at the break before Stewart threw touchdown strikes to Devin Mahina, Paul Lasike, and Mitch Mathews, stretching the Cougars’ lead to 42-23 late in the third quarter. Lasike ran for two touchdowns in the second quarter, and led BYU (6-4) with 70 yards rushing.

Broncos land commitment from former 4-star safety Kameron Miles redshirted at Texas A&M in 2013 before playing at Butler County Community College this season By B.J. RAINS

bjrains@idahopress.com

© 2014 Idaho Press-Tribune

The Boise State football team added to what is becoming an impressive 2015 recruiting class on Saturday with the verbal commitment of former 4-star safety Cam Miles. The 6-2, 207-pound Miles, who played this season at Butler County Community College in Kansas, committed while on an official visit to Boise State this weekend. Miles signed with Texas A&M out of high school, where he was recruited by current Boise State defensive coordinator Marcel Yates. But after redshirting in 2013, Miles was dismissed from the team in March for undisclosed reasons. “My actions does not reflect my character, I made a mistake and I accept full responsibility and the consequences of my actions, Aggie always,” Miles posted to his Twitter account at the time. “I want to issue an apology to coach Kevin Sumlin and the coaching staff, teammates, WMHS for my misjudgment and the mistake I made.” Miles landed at Butler County Community College for the 2014 season, where he had 50 tackles, including 4.5 tackles-for-loss, and two pass break-ups in 11 games. Yates was the co-defensive coordinator at Texas A&M in 2013 before joining Boise State in January. Current Boise State freshman safety Dylan Sumner-Gardner committed to Yates and the Aggies in 2013, but instead followed the coach to Boise. Miles went to West Mesquite High in Dallas, Texas, where he was a teammate of Sumner-Gardner. Akilian Butler, a senior wide receiver at West Mesquite High, is currently committed to Boise State’s 2015 recruiting class as well. Miles was a U.S. Army All-American as a senior at West Mesquite. He was ranked by ESPN as the No. 13 safety in the country and the No. 1 safety in Texas in the 2013 recruiting class, and was labeled a 4-star prospect by all of the major recruiting services.

The teams traded punts before Boise State’s Cleshawn Page intercepted San Diego State quarterback Quinn Kaehler at the Aztecs 34-yard line and returned it 20 yards to the 14. Ajayi again finished off the drive with a touchdown run, this one from 3 yards out, to give Boise State its first lead of the game at 24-23. After a San Diego State punt, Boise State went 62 yards in five plays and scored on Ajayi’s third rushing touchdown of the half to take a 31-23 lead with 11:23 left in the fourth quarter. Boise State put the

game away with a 13yard touchdown run from quarterback Grant Hedrick, who completed 19 of 28 passes for 187 yards and a touchdown and added 41 yards on the ground. Thomas Sperbeck had six catches for 82 yards and a touchdown for the Broncos, who finished with 399 total yards of offense after having only 27 in the first quarter. The first half looked similar to last year’s first half in San Diego, one in which Boise State had 49 yards of offense and trailed 14-7. The Broncos played much better in the second half but eventually lost that game in overtime. San Diego State had a 135-27 advantage in yards in the first quarter on Sat-

Boise State struggled on both sides of the ball as San Diego State opened up a 20-0 lead midway through the second quarter. But the restless crowd finally got into the game as the Broncos scored 10 points in the final 3:25 to cut the score to 20-10.

A 46-yard juggling catch from Chaz Ander-

son helped Boise State get inside the 10-yard line, but the drive stalled and the Broncos elected to take a 21-yard field goal from Dan Goodale instead of going for it on fourth-andgoal from the 4. After a defensive stop, Boise State got the ball back with 1:48 to play in the second quarter and went 78 yards in six plays, scoring on a 14-yard pass from Hedrick to Sperbeck with 17 seconds left to go into the break trailing by only 10 points. Boise State heads to Wyoming for another 8:15 p.m. start on Saturday, before finishing the regular season with a home game against Utah State on Nov. 29.

C of I volleyball wins 3rd straight conference title IDAHO PRESS-TRIBUNE STAFF sports@idahopress.com

Nationals bound — again. The fourth-seeded College of Idaho volleyball team continued its red-hot pace with a five-set triumph (25-20, 13-25, 25-19, 21-25, 15-12) against third-seed Concordia on Saturday to win the Cascade Conference title at Quinn Coliseum in La Grande, Oregon. Emily Ottinger had 22 kills to lead the third straight conference title for the Yotes (19-11), who will make their seventh consecutive trip to the NAIA national tournament under 14-year coach Liz Mendiola. “They put together an incredible effort,” said Mendiola, who won her eighth conference title in the past 10 years. “They stepped up in every facet of the game.” Sierra Porter had 46 assists for the Yotes, who beat top-seed and 11th-ranked Eastern Oregon on Friday to reach the title game. On Saturday, Katy Robinson and Kylie Porter had nine kills apiece, and Janessa Koelliker had six blocks as the Yotes won their sixth straight match. Ottinger had four kills in the final set — including the championship-sealing point. “She is such a clutch player,”

PREP ROUNDUP

Emmett falls to Fruitland By KELLY TAYLOR sports@idahopress.com

The Fruitland Grizzlies raced to a 13-0 halftime lead and then got some help from a missed Emmett Huskies field goal attempt with 1:01 to hold off the charging Huskies and take a 13-12 victory Saturday night in the 3A football semifinal game in Emmett. With Fruitland’s remarkable streak of appearing in eight-straight Idaho 3A championship games in danger, a bad hold caused Emmett’s Yancy Hyde’s 28yard attempt at the game winner to squirt harmlessly into the end zone, sending the Grizzlies to their ninth straight final. The semifinal win avenged a 35-17 regular season loss to Emmett on Oct. 17 at Huskie Stadium that allowed Emmett to capture the Snake River Valley conference title. With the game-time temperature hovering around 13 degrees, the Grizzlies broke the stalemate with 8:44 remaining in the half. Junior running back Kennon Smith capped an 86-yard, nine-play drive with a 35-yard dash into the end zone. Fruitland’s Garrett Tipton added the other score before the half with a punishing 52-yard run through the Huskie defense. With the Huskies’ season on the line, Emmett sophomore Luc Overton brought the home crowd to life with an 82-yard return of the opening kickoff in the second half for a touchdown. But a missed 2-point try would come back to haunt the Huskies who were riding an eight-game winning streak and trying to advance to their first ever state championship title game. The Huskies gave themselves a chance to tie the game in the fourth quarter when Overton took a pass on fourth-and-6 from Emmett signal caller Saige Wilkerson and executed a perfect hook and lateral play to Mason Farnworth, who took it 35 yards in for the score midway through the final quarter. Trailing by the eventual final score, Emmett couldn’t tie the score after they failed to convert the extra point try. The Huskies’ 8-2 season and the Grizzlies championship streak all came down to Emmett’s final drive of the game. With 3:38 left on the clock, Farnsworth took the first play of the drive 42 yards down to the Fruitland 27. The Huskies advanced the ball to the 11 where third year Emmett coach Mike Schroeder elected to send in the field C M Y K

Mendiola said. The Yotes will open nationals on Saturday. They will earn their opponent and location today. But first, there is a championship to cherish, and it was evident with tears of joy with the thrilling win. “That’s why I do this,” Mendiola said. “There’s definitely nothing better.” COLLEGE OF IDAHO MEN 7-0: All 15 players scored as the No. 7-ranked College of Idaho men’s basketball team improved to 7-0 with a 9060 win against Montana Tech on Saturday at the Clearwater River Casino Invitational in Lewiston. Sophomores Emanuel Morgan and Joey Nebeker (Melba High) scored 11 points each for the NAIA Division II Yotes, who held NAIA Division I Montana Tech to 39.2 percent shooting. Yotes redshirt freshman Trevor Thomas (Cole Valley Christian) sank a 75-foot shot at the end of the first half. C of I senior Jordan O’Byrne had nine points and sophomore Michael Goward had nine points, and senior Josh Wilson had six assists. The Yotes held their seventh straight opponent to under 40-percent shooting. NNU VOLLEYBALL ENDS SEASON ON WIN-

goal team on fourth-and-5. Schroeder wasn’t second guessing his decision to send Hyde out for the potential game winner. “He’s kicked a 43 yarder and a 53 yarder in practice,” Schroeder said. “He can kick it. Our PAT and field goal was an embarrassment.” The Grizzlies will be trying to win their third 3A state championship in their current streak of Milk Bowl appearances and their first since 2010 when they take on the Snake River Panthers next week in Boise.

NING NOTE: The 11th-ranked Northwest Nazarene volleyball team battled back to score a 27-29, 25-13, 19-25, 25-20, 15-10 win on the road at Central Washington, wrapping up the regular season. The Crusaders claimed the Great Northwest Athletic Conference title last week and finished the league slate 15-1. Their 24-2 regular season is an all-time best since joining the NCAA Division II ranks in 2000. Andrea Terpstra had 21 kills and 11 blocks and Madi Farrell added 20 kills and seven blocks for NNU. Michelle Terpstra dished out 61 assists and added 10 digs and nine blocks, and libero Taylor Roberts had 40 digs. The NCAA Tournament field will be announced at 8 p.m. today. NNU MEN GET FIRST WIN: The Northwest Nazarene men’s basketball team beat Notre Dame de Namur 87-71 at the Chuck Randall Classic hosted by Western Washington. Erik Kinney recorded his first double-double in a Crusader uniform, scoring 21 points and grabbing 10 rebounds.

Vincent Galindo III carried 24 times for 117 yards and two touchdowns for BK, which were the Knights’ only offensive scores of the game. Conner Charles returned a kick 98 yards for the first touchdown, and the Knights earned a safety on penalty in the fourth quarter. Senior quarterback Tyler Allumbaugh threw for 103 yards on 11 of 16 passing.

Nick Duncan and Mikey Thompson led the Broncos with 15 points apiece. Boise State (2-0) took control late in the game with a 12-0 run. LMU (1-0) led 61-59 with 4:33 left. The Broncos scored the next dozen points to take a 71-61 lead. Mikey Thompson scored the first six points during the run, followed by 3-pointers from Nick Duncan and Derrick Marks. Marks went 6-for-6 from the free throw line in the final 38 seconds to keep the Lions at bay. NNU WOMEN FALL 96-94: The Northwest Nazarene women’s basketball team lost its second straight contest to open the season with a 96-94 loss to California Baptist on Saturday at the Johnson Sports Center in Nampa. Kamille Diaz (17 points) hit two free throws with 2.1 seconds left to lift California Baptist, which erased a five-point deficit with 1:22 remaining. NNU freshman CoCo Gall had

touchdowns in a span of 11 seconds in the midstages of the fourth quarter to end the season for Rocky Mountain in the 5A state semifinals. Rocky Mountain’s Ryan Beard (9-of-15 passing, 90 yards) threw his second touchdown pass of the day when he hit Cordel Sheldon for a 7-yard strike with 10:52 left. That cut the Highland lead to 28-25. But from there, Highland’s Garret Christensen scored on a 15-yard run, then Brittan Bell intercepted Beard on the next series to set up another score: Dakota Tillotson’s 40-yard TD pass to Connor Harding. Rocky Mountain’s Jake Roper rushed 22 times for 116 yards and a touchdown, and Christian Blaser rushed

117 yards and two touchdowns, and quarterback Mac Roche went 12 of 22 for 230 yards and three touchdown passes. Carroll’s Kyle Griffith caught five passes for 111 yards and two touchdowns. “They’ve got the whole package on offense,” said Moroski, whose reinstated program allowed the most points since an 80-0 loss to the University of Idaho in 1922. “They’re very good. But it’s not like you walk out on the field and there’s

a bunch of NFL players or something. They’re big and strong and fundamentally sound.” Yotes running back Ryan Texeira had nine carries for 54 yards, and Austin Diffey caught six passes for 54 yards. C of I tight end Marcus Lenhardt caught a touchdown pass for the third straight week, this time a 58-yard strike from Gordon that pulled the Yotes within 14-12. From there, Carroll held

the Yotes to just 105 total yards and outscored the C of I 34-0 in the second half, with four of its five scoring drives needed three plays or less. “We didn’t execute as we’d like,” Moroski said. The Yotes defied the odds with a 3-1 start to the season. At one point, they owned the NAIA’s sixthranked rushing offense (266 yards per game). But injuries to Gordon and running back Zach Garzoli (ankle) slowed

the zone-read production. That, coupled with the wear and tear of the first collegiate season for a roster composed of threefourths freshmen, took its toll as the losses began to mount. But it takes years to establish a foundation, which has been a point of emphasis for Moroski, who does not measure wins and losses as a measuring stick for the first C of I football season since 1977. Sure, victories are great — and the

Yotes’ four-win season has quadrupled expectations to some observers — but the bigger picture is establishing fundamentals and roots. “We accomplished some tremendous things and laid a tremendous foundation for the future,” said Moroski, who finished a five-game home slate with a 3-2 record. “I think we’ve met the challenge the first year. And now it’s a matter of continuing to meet the challenge.”

GROOMING THE WAY

THE FIRST OF ITS KIND would rival the ones in the Eastern United States and Europe (and, of course, be on a Union Pacific line). After a search that ranged from Washington to Wyoming, Sun Valley became that destination, earning its part in history as the site of ski scenes in movies and the playground of the famous and powerful.

If it’s important to you, it’s important to us.

Sun Valley stands apart in the history of skiing for another reason. It was the first ski resort in the world with a now-ubiquitous piece of equipment: a chairlift.

Personal stories and historical tidbits abound in “Ski the Great Potato.” “We probably interviewed more that 150 people before we got done,” Fuller said. One of those interviewees was Chris Tapfer, who shared his experiences about managing the North South Ski Bowl in northern Idaho. One of the obstacles he encountered in doing his job was quite literal: a moose. It had bedded down on one of the main trails.

Feral cats, unlike strays, have been born and raised in the wild or have been abandoned and must revert back to their instincts in order to survive. Most of these cats, fearful of humans and too skittish to be handled, often live in groups and take refuge wherever there is available food and shelter. Because of this, they are subject to harsh weather conditions, starvation and diseases and are sometimes even eradicated by humans in attempts to deplete the feral cat population. However, there are actions you can take to help these undomesticated cats. You will be able to tell if you have come in contact with a feral cat rather than a stray by their standoffish and notably quiet demeanor. They will most likely keep their distance from you and scamper off when approached. However, this shouldn’t deter you from trying to help. Feral cats have a great chance of survival if they live in a group, or colony, maintained by a dedicated caretaker. This means providing regular food and proper shelter, as well as spay/neuter services. A popular and effective way to do this is the TrapNeuter-Return method, or TNR. This humane method, helping to stabilize and, over time, reduce the population of feral cats, traps the cats to have them spayed or neutered and vaccinated (against rabies), and then returns them to their colony. “At the time of the spay or neuter, the veterinarian surgically removes the tip of one ear (ear-tipping) as a safe and effective means of marking cats, thus sparing them from unnecessary trappings,” Dr. Carly Duff, veterinary resident at the Texas A&M College of Veterinary Medicine & Biomedical Sciences, said. By stabilizing the population, cats

will be exposed to fewer risks of disease and will live healthier lives, with more space and food to themselves. You may call your local animal shelter for help in trapping a feral cat for TNR. When they do this, you shouldn’t feed the cats for a little over a day, as they must be hungry to enter the trap, which is usually baited with tuna, sardines, salmon, or other luxurious foods that feral cats aren’t accustomed to eating. Remember that although these

I in turn have had to put

up with her “stuff” when she is sick or has something she wants me to do or any of a myriad number of things with which she can irritate me. But we have lived through it all and, at last report from her, she wouldn’t trade me for anyone else (actually she couldn’t get too much for me on the open market anymore anyway). As we approach this great season of gratitude this year, remember that we don’t make it through this life alone and a spouse that stays with us and still loves us is (like they say on the MasterCard commercials) priceless!

Slopes Continued from C1 Tapfer said he tried to chase the moose off with the help of some skiers, but it wouldn’t budge. Tapfer closed down the trail and the moose finally got up and left on its own hours later. Brundage Mountain, which takes its name from pioneer sheep rancher Scott Brundage, has its own share of tales. Founded in 1961, the first two years saw employees grooming the runs by sliding sideways down them on their skis. After that, a used snow groomer purchased from Bogus Basin helped smooth down the powder. Skiers headed to Bogus Basin in the early years had to keep an eye on their watches. The area opened in 1942 with a one-way dirt road. You could head up to ski until 2:30 p.m. After that, the road switched directions and only allowed downhill traffic, forcing some travelers to hastily turn around. Sometimes, ski hills had to offer a little bit of en-

COMMUNITY

ticement to get skiers out on their slopes. The Boise Basin Ski Club took out a newspaper ad in 1946 for the Eight Mile Creek area above Idaho City. The ad encouraged people to “Ski at Idaho City,” and offered the alluring tagline of “Good Cleared Road!” Time was not kind to many of the tiny ski areas that sprung up though. “As the snow got less and the costs went up, many of them went out of business,” Fuller said. But the tales remained.

AN IMAGE FROM THE PAST Armed with stories of Olympic skiers, chairlift accidents and mischievous dogs who stole the lunches of excited young skiers, Margaret Fuller, Doug Fuller and Jerry Painter needed a title for their book. Margaret Fuller said that when Doug Fuller used to be part of one of the ski programs at Bogus Basin as a kid, “there was this poster that the Department of Commerce put out that had this skier and it had ‘Ski the Great Potato.’” With that image in mind, the authors set out to find a copy. As it turned out, there was one copy of the

1970s-era advertisement left, which was hanging in a conference room at the Department of Commerce. Bryan Lee Shaw, the original artist, granted the authors permission to give his drawing a new life, and “Ski the Great Potato” had both its cover art and its title. “(Shaw) was so delighted to have it used that he bought 10 copies,” Margaret Fuller said. The book was published in 2013 and went on to win the 2014 International Skiing History Association Awards’ Skade Award, which honors books that focus on ski history. To get your copy, you can order it from trailguide books.com, or find it in the Treasure Valley at Idaho Mountain Touring, The Rediscovered Bookshop, Greenwood’s Ski Haus and McU Sports. As for Fuller, she’s still searching for information on those lost ski areas. Until she or the other authors find it and craft another edition, “Ski the Great Potato: Idaho Ski Areas Past and Present” is there to remind skiers of the past and wish them, as it does in the introduction, “happy skiing!”

Bush picked National Security Adviser Condoleezza Rice to be his new secretary of state, succeeding Colin Powell. Al-Jazeera television said it had received a video showing a hooded militant shooting a blindfolded woman in the head; it’s believed the woman was kidnapped British aid worker Margaret Hassan. Sunni Muslims in Iraq expressed anger over videotape showing the fatal shooting of a wounded and apparently unarmed man in a Fallujah mosque by a U.S. Marine. (The Marine Corps decided not to court-martial the unidentified corporal.) Five years ago: President Barack Obama, on his first-ever trip to China, gave his hosts a pointed, unexpected nudge to stop censoring Internet access, but the message was not widely heard in China, where the president’s words were blocked online and shown on only one regional television channel. A U.S. government health task force suggested most women wait until age 50 to get mammograms, conflicting with the American Cancer Society’s advice to start at 40. Space shuttle Atlantis blasted off with six astronauts and a full load of spare parts for the International Space Station. Actor Edward Woodward, 79, died in Cornwall, England.

How do I keep my décor from becoming clutter? By MELISSA RAYWORTH The Associated Press

Designers often surprise their clients by sharing a secret: You can dramatically change the look of a room simply by changing or rearranging the items on your bookshelves and tabletops. Just as fashion accessories can have a big impact on an outfit, the items you display on shelves and tables can have a powerful effect on the style of any room. Yet, we often pay little attention to these spaces. Shelves get cluttered with stuff we’ve gotten as gifts or things we’re not sure where to store. Think about “how the items you’re displaying will continue the story you’re trying to tell in your space,” advised designer Brian Patrick Flynn, founder of the Flynnside Out design blog. A little editing of your collection can help banish clutter, and putting different items in the spotlight can reveal fresh combinations of things you already own. Begin by exploring photos of bookshelves and tables on Pinterest, or other websites or magazines, suggested interior designer Betsy Burnham of Burnham Design, in Los Angeles. You may find you’re more drawn to sparse, streamlined surfaces than you’d expected. Or you may love the look of surfaces decorated with items in one color scheme. Once you’ve got some ideas bubbling, it’s time to dive in.

CLEAR, THEN CLASSIFY First, empty all the shelves and tables from one or several rooms of your home. Place all the items on the floor or perhaps on an empty dining table. Begin grouping them however you wish: by color, texture, type of object or any other classification. Look for patterns. You might find, for example, that you have several items relating to animals, or more pieces of brass or stone than you realized, said designer Molly Luetkemeyer of M. Design Interiors in Los Angeles. Eliminate things that aren’t your taste anymore or don’t fit the room. We tend to add to our shelves and tables over time, Burnham said, so paring down from time to time is necessary. Luetkemeyer agreed: “You can’t use what you have if you can’t see what you have,” she said. “So you kind of have to be merciless.” If it’s hard to eliminate anything, invite a friend to help. And if getting rid of things permanently is tough, simply box up items that aren’t working and put them away for a few months. Or loan them to a friend.

When you display framed art both in and on a built-in bookcase, the effect is open and airy. It also still provides ample storage space for a book collection. The interior and bookcase design is by Molly Luetkemeyer. Homeowners who love having lots of items on hand, but don’t want their coffee table to look cluttered, can take inspiration from this tabletop designed by Max Humphrey of Burnham Design in Los Angeles. Humphrey uses decorative trays to corral items and bring a sense of organization to this very full, colorful table.

LOOK INSIDE Before putting anything back on the shelves, consider painting a bookshelf’s interior, or covering the wall behind an open bookshelf with wallpaper or another wall covering. “The back panels of built-ins and bookshelves act just like backdrops to a TV set or a stage,” said Flynn. “I usually paint the back panels the same colors as a room’s walls, or I use wallpaper or grasscloth to introduce texture and create visual tension between the graphic shapes of books, picture frames and objects.” Once you’ve prepared that canvas, it’s time to begin putting stuff back.

MIX AND MATCH Besides clustering some items by color, subject matter or material, also think about shape and height. And don’t be afraid to mix art objects with books, or decorative boxes with vases of flowers. “For every stack of books I add to a shelf,” Flynn said, “I like to have at least two interesting objects to offset the linearity.” All three designers suggested varying the orientation of your

books’ spines. “I like to stack some vertically and anchor them with bookends or objects,” Flynn said, “and then I stack some horizontally and use them as risers to showcase frames or trinkets, kind of like makeshift pedestals.” Burnham suggested gathering smaller items in decorative trays or bowls. “One of the most interesting

ways to define space on a coffee table or sideboard is using trays,” she said. To bring style to a coffee table, stack several books on a large decorative tray, then “have a smaller tray where you put your TV remotes. You’re making the mundane stuff orderly, you’re giving it some form, and you’re actually corralling it and making sense of it.” Take time to experiment with

each shelf or table. Again, consider the story the room is telling. “If you’re someone who’s a world traveler, keep things totally random and collected, or arranged artfully like a curated gallery collection,” Flynn said. “If you’re all about a color scheme, layer objects so that the colors continue to finish the room’s palette. But make sure you slightly throw the colors off, so it’s not super matchy.”

Bonsai: The haiku of the tree world By KATHERINE ROTH The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Many people have a bonsai story: a first bonsai, a struggling bonsai. And many of these stories do not end happily, at least for the bonsai. But the very best bonsai stories are about passion and beauty and transformation. “A dewdrop hanging for a split-second — that is bonsai,” said Julian Velasco, the curator of the Brooklyn Botanic Garden’s bonsai collection and C.V. Starr Bonsai Museum. “It’s very Zen-like. It’s awesome.” It is the haiku of the tree world. Although Velasco said the ultimate goal is to “open your heart to the tree,” he has a few more practical tips for novices. The first is to choose a variety of tree suited to your environment. Bonsai are trees or shrubs, and most varieties should be grown outside, where they require a period of dormancy in winter. For most people, however, who want to grow their bonsai indoors or keep them outdoors only in warmer months, tropical varieties like the ficus or Australian brush cherry, with its interesting flower and bark, are good choices. Both are stur-

dy enough to endure a few beginners’ mistakes, do well indoors and can be kept outside so long as temperatures are above 60 degrees. Another good option, particularly for people with access to an outdoor growing space, is Chinese elm, which is adaptable and can also be grown indoors. The next step along the continuum of hardiness is junipers, particularly Chinese and procumbens varieties. Small varieties of azaleas, which are sturdy with nice leaves and flowers, are also popular among bonsai enthusiasts, Velasco said. Outdoor bonsai are delicate, however, and need to be protected once temperatures reach 20 degrees and colder. “Most people will bury just the pot part of the bonsai in soil and mulch up against a house or fence to protect it from drying winds. Burying the pot evens out the temperature for the roots so there are no sudden drops or super hard freezes,” Velasco said. Another strategy is burying just the pot part of the bonsai under a bench in the winter, and covering the bench with some clear plastic. In addition to selecting the right variety, beginners

need to understand bonsai stress and watering, Velasco said. “A lot of times people bring home a bonsai and it drops its leaves and looks unwell. It’s just stressed out. It needs time to adjust, and a little patience,” he explained. “Monitor the water very carefully. Without leaves it won’t need as much water. Hold off on water until the soil dries out. And little by little, when you hold off on water, buds will start to appear. And as that starts to happen, the need for water will start to increase.” Many bonsai growers keep the tip of a chopstick deep in the soil toward the back of the pot as a moisture gauge.

“If the chopstick is moist you don’t need to water. But you never want the roots in the pot to get completely dry. Water it only when it’s almost dry,” Velasco said. Water from the top down and make sure the water drains out the bottom of the pot. As for pruning, allow the tree to grow five to seven leaves before pruning it back by about two leaves of the new growth, Velasco said. “Only prune what’s actively growing. Trees need to grow to be happy and healthy,” he said. “If you’re on top of your game, the tree will repay you by being healthy and beautiful. Just try to appreciate what the bonsai is trying to express to you.” C M Y K

Making the indoors safer for all allergy sufferers By KATHERINE ROTH The Associated Press

Although the thought of sleeping with millions of dust mites — microscopic arachnids that feast on flakes of skin — is just plain gross, it’s something most people can handle without worry. After all, our bodies are inhabited by multitudes of bacteria to which we seldom give a thought. For the many people who suffer from allergies, though, the allergens in dust-mite feces and body parts can lead to chronic sinus problems and coughing, among other symptoms. If gone untreated, the problem can escalate to eczema and asthma, particularly in children, according to James Sublett, presidentelect of the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology. “The sooner you intervene, the less likely the problems are to escalate,” he said. Luckily, homes can be made more livable for allergy-sufferers — and less amenable to dust mites — in just a few steps. If dust-mite allergies are suspected, the first step is to get tested by an allergist. These tips from allergists can help make any home friendlier to those with indoor allergies, dust mites included:

people make is to install vaporizers and humidifiers,” Sublett said. “Moisture can and does cause all kinds of problems.” Dust mites can’t survive in less than 50 percent humidity, so buy a humidity meter and, if needed, a dehumidifier to keep humidity to between 35 percent and 50 percent.

RIP OUT RUGS, DITCH DRAPES Carpet and heavy drapes are a reservoir for allergens like dust mites and should be removed, particularly in bedrooms. If removing them isn’t an option, the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology recommends frequent vacuuming using a HEPA (high-efficiency particulate air) filter. Those with allergies should stay away or wear an N95 particulate mask during and immediately after vacuuming, since particles can remain airborne for up to two hours.

JUST ENCASE

All mattresses, box springs, pillows and comforters should be encased in well-sealed, tightly woven, microfiber “mite-proof” covers from a reputable company, such as Mission: Allergy or National Allergy Supply, and linens and stuffed animals should be washed weekly, allergists say. KEEP IT DRY “The temperatures and “One of the biggest and detergents used are much most common mistakes less important than the reg-

ularity of washing,” Sublett said. “Washing in any temperature dramatically reduces the level of allergens.”

OPT FOR SMOOTH Smooth surfaces that can be wiped clean are generally better for allergysufferers than more porous upholstered surfaces on couches, chairs and even car seats, Sublett said.

CLEAR AND CLEAN THE AIR To help keep indoor allergens of any kind at bay, homes should be smokefree and pets should be kept out of the bedroom. For the very allergy-prone, use a HEPA air filter in the bedroom with a CADR (clean air delivery rate) adequate for the size of the room. Install MERV 11 or 12 disposable, high-efficiency filters in the furnace and air conditioning system that can be changed every few months, according to Sublett. But these steps are less important for those suffering solely from dust-mite allergies, since dust mites burrow deep in bedding and dustmite particles are generally not airborne, according to Wood.

CHECK THE UNITS Allergists suggest that to minimize indoor allergens, heating and air conditioning units be cleaned and serviced every six months, and that gas appliances and fireplaces be vented to the outside and regularly maintained.

on the tube.) Nap too long will put too much paint on the wall, too short will leave you with bare textured areas. Most interior walls will need a 1/2-inch cover, but you should check your individual texture to be safe. n Cut in first, then roll. Every HGTV program out there shows the host painting the wrong way. The token shot shows them madly rolling away, dead center on a wall. (They never have a roller pole either, which is ridiculous.) Always paint your edging first, or cut in as they call it, then fill in the middle with the roller, covering as much cut in as possible. n Plan on two coats. If you realize from the beginning two coats will most likely be necessary, it

will save you time and frustration. A second coat can then be completed much easier, as all the prep work is done and the tools are ready. Even if the paint covers well, there may be areas you missed or were light on. Two coats guarantee a better-looking result. I hope this gives you some motivation for the months ahead. And if this makes you realize you have no desire to do the work yourself, contact a professional.

It is a 100 pairs entering coffee shops, modern accomplishment to pay and asked if they wanted to parundivided attention to a single ticipate in a 10-minute study person for an entire hour (or lon- about conversations. The two

participants were assigned to have either a casual conversation on the topic of plastic holiday trees or a meaningful conversation about important events in their lives from the past year. The participants were unaware they were being watched during the conversation, and their verbal and nonverbal interactions noted. Afterward, they answered a survey about how empathetic and connected they felt toward the other person and their pre-existing level of closeness. The experiment found that people who placed a mobile device on the table during the conversation had lower levels of connectedness and empathy toward the conversation partner. Both people in the pair experienced less connectedness. People who reported being closer to one another were more disrupted by the presence of the cellphone than those with a more casual relationship. The topic of the

conversation, whether superficial or deep, did not have any significant impact on the results. Misra, an assistant professor in the School of Public and International Affairs at Virginia Tech University, says the modern mobile device is a symbol of our social networks and contacts. In this digital age, we are constantly in a “poly-conscious” state, she said, in which the person in front of us does not necessarily take precedence over the contacts to whom we are digitally connected. “A few years ago, people who were in front of you took your attention, as opposed to those who were far away,” she said. But nowadays, “all relationships are flattened.” While it may be surprising that one does not actually need to use a mobile device for its presence to be disruptive, it’s less surprising that the closer the relationship, the more disrupted the conversation by the presence

of a phone. “We are socialized to expect focused attention from the people we care about the most,” Misra said. Any parent who has tried to communicate with a child enraptured by a mobile device has felt that frustration. Perhaps many children have felt the same sense of playing second-fiddle when a parent is easily distracted by the device in his or her hand. “Refrain from the constant urge to be plugged into the flow of information if you really want empathy” from your interactions, Misra advised. After all, it can feel a little terrible to compete with an inanimate object, a symbol of everything and everyone more compelling than us. It feels even worse to lose.

You might be expecting too much at the moment DEAR ANNIE: I am an active person, and my wife used to be until a bout with cancer. She no longer has the physical endurance she once did. I try to make this work with shorter trips, shorter walks and simpler activities. But when I want to do something that she is unable to do, she becomes angry and resentful that I would even consider going fishing or golfing, taking a hunting trip, gardening or going into the city to visit friends for the day. I do ask her to do all of these things, but she usually says no. I’m trying not to be insensitive. I clean our home and cook and do all the yard work and the heavy lifting. But she says that’s not “help”; it’s what any husband ought to do. My wife holds up her end of our life’s bargain as best she can without complaint, and I have no complaint about her efforts.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX Advice

But I am not disabled, and neither is she — she’s simply limited. She does yoga and has a pottery class each week, but I have little interest in those activities. Yet when I ask whether she would like to “go do something for the day,” she has a small fit. And if I make plans to do something by myself or with a pal, she gets angry. Watching the world go by is not something I want to do. Is it fair for me to forgo the things I love because she can’t or won’t join in? — Actively Confused DEAR CONFUSED: You shouldn’t have to give up all activ-

ities because your wife is not able to join you, but how long has it been since she finished her cancer treatments? Might she regain her strength and once again be able to join you? You might be expecting too much for this moment in time. Please understand that your wife is sad that she cannot do these things, so she resents when you make plans without her. It’s as if you are flaunting your health, and you don’t value her as she is. It might help for the two of you to speak to her oncologist and outline what activities are appropriate. Then try to compromise. Perhaps she would take that short trip with you if you would sign up for a yoga class. DEAR ANNIE: You frequently publish letters about women’s health. What about men’s health? Your female readers must care about the health of their fathers, brothers, husbands and sons. I

see very little in the media about men’s health, and yet men, on average, live five years less than women. Would you please advise your readers, both women and men, to urge men to get annual physical checkups at a doctor’s office, including prostate exams? Almost as many men die of prostate cancer every year as women die of breast cancer. — R.O. DEAR R.O.: Not exactly. According to the American Cancer Society, 29,480 men are expected to die from prostate cancer in 2014, compared with 40,000 women dying from breast cancer. (And both are second to lung cancer.) But you are right that men’s health is important and should be taken seriously. We have printed many letters in our column on topics including prostate cancer, heart disease, erectile dysfunction, depression and low testosterone.

We hope all men will get regular checkups to keep their bodies and minds in good shape. DEAR ANNIE: I’d like to relate a more positive experience in response to “Unhappy Mother of a Son.” I had a wonderful motherin-law who treated me as if I were her own daughter. I believed she must be pretty great to raise a man with whom I wanted to spend my life. My own mother died when I was 15, so I appreciated having a Mom to help me learn to cook and take care of twin daughters. I’m sorry for any daughter-in-law who misses out on this kind of relationship. — Hutchinson, Kans.
