Democrats hold fundraising edge in 2 key state House races

State sued over alleged sex assault

Garcia Richard’s $70K dwarfs GOP opponent

VA trims wait list

By Steve Terrell The New Mexican

In two hotly contested state House races in the Santa Fe area, the Democratic candidates are outraising their Republican rivals, the latest campaign finance reports show.

Stephanie Garcia Richard, a Los

Alamos Democrat who is completing her first term in the Legislature representing House District 43, reported having more than $70,000 in the bank. Meanwhile, her Republican opponent, Geoffrey Rodgers, had only $6,446, according to his report filed last week with the Secretary of State’s Office.

Republican Vickie Perea of Belen, who was appointed to represent District 50 by Gov. Susana Martinez, had more than $34,000 cash on hand.

Her Democratic opponent, Matthew McQueen of Galisteo, had nearly $49,000.

These two districts are among 10 statewide that both parties are watching closely. Republicans are making an effort to gain control of the House for the first time in more than 60 years. Democrats control the House by a shaky 37-33 margin.

Taos council restores former name, but group will explore alternatives

By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

TAOS — Kit Carson Park has new life. The controversial name was resurrected Tuesday by the Taos Town Council after an emotional three-hour meeting.

Council members voted 3-1 to rescind the downtown park’s new name of Red Willow and to form a community group that will explore alternative names. But for now at least, the park again is officially named for the noted frontiersman.

Supporters of Carson, who died in 1868, came away with a longterm victory because council members decided that the cemetery where Carson is buried adjoining the park will bear his name.

Council member Fritz Hahn cast

the lone vote against scrapping Red Willow as the park’s name and the related decision to name the cemetery for Carson.

Barely a month ago, the council ignited widespread debate when it approved a resolution to remove Carson’s name from the park. The measure stripping Carson’s name from the park also included the cemetery.

But various Taos-area residents said they were blindsided and shocked that history would be obliterated by the council.

“It was a political correctness move,” said Arsenio Cordova, who lives near Taos and has taught history at a number of New Mexico colleges and universities.

Cordova was among more than

100 people who packed the council chambers to testify about whether Carson — a soldier, scout and explorer — was an important figure or a man guilty of carnage of Navajos.

People opposed to Carson’s name gracing a town park persuaded a majority of the council to change it during a meeting in June. Others complained that the original decision was hasty and excluded many from the debate, though the proposal was listed on the council’s public agenda.

Mayor Dan Barrone said Tuesday he expected a decision on a new name for the park to be made within 60 days. It still could end up being Red Willow, though certain

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama urged Congress on Tuesday to quickly provide almost $4 billion to confront a surge of young migrants from Central America crossing the border into Texas, calling it “an urgent humanitarian situation.”

But the request immediately became entangled in the fierce political debate over immigration: Republicans said they were wary of Obama’s request and could not immediately support it, given what they called his administration’s failure to secure the Mexican border after years of illegal crossings.

Obama could face resistance from members of his own party as well.

The president said he needed the money to set up new detention facilities, conduct more aerial surveillance and hire immigration judges and Border Patrol agents to respond to the flood of 52,000 children. Their sudden mass migration has overwhelmed local resources and touched off protests from residents angry about the impact on the local economy. In a

Critics: Proposal short on renewable energy Public Service Company of New Mexico’s latest plan for providing power to half a million customers over the next two decades is drawing fire from renewable energy and environmental advocates over a proposal to add more coal and nuclear power.

The plan by PNM, the state’s largest electric utility, includes a proposal to replace power from two units at the coal-fired San Juan Generating Station with a mixture of sources including coal, natural gas, nuclear power and solar energy. The plan was filed last week with the state Public Regulation Commission.

Eventually, the cost of any plan approved by the state regulators will affect ratepayers’ monthly bills.

PNM’s plan “is the result of more than a year of rigorous, scientific analysis and significant and ongoing input from the public,” said Pat O’Connell, PNM’s director of planning and resources, in a statement.

O’Connell said the plan “responsibly balances the need for a robust power supply for our customers with our commitment to protect the environment and keep electricity affordable.”

Sampling Santa Fe

By Mark Stevenson The Associated Press

SAN PEDRO LIMON, Mexico — Bullet marks and blood spatters on the walls inside a grain storage warehouse deep in the mountains of southern Mexico tell a grim story of death involving soldiers and alleged criminals. It may not be the same story officials tell, however.

Mexico’s Defense Department says soldiers were patrolling in one of the most violent, lawless corners of the country on June 30 when they came under fire from a warehouse where a gang of 21 men and one woman were hiding. One soldier was wounded, but all of the suspects were killed.

The shootout was the most dramatic in a string of battles in which the army says criminals fired first at soldiers who then killed them all, while suffering few or no losses.

There have been so many such incidents that human rights groups and analysts have begun to doubt the military’s version.

“It raises suspicion, the simple fact that there were 22 dead on one side and one wounded on the other side,” said security analyst Alejandro Hope, a former official in Mexico’s domestic intelligence service.

In San Pedro Limon, pools of blood and bullet marks observed by Associated Press journalists three days after the shooting raise questions about whether all the suspects died in the gunbattle, or after it was over. The warehouse where many bodies were found showed

Washington marks 1st legal pot sale

In brief

Recreational marijuana in short supply; prices are expected to quickly get high

Somali presidential compound secured following attack MOGADISHU, Somalia — Somali troops retook the presidential palace in the capital of Mogadishu after militants forced their way in and exchanged heavy gunfire with troops and guards Tuesday, the latest attack underscoring the threat posed by Islamic extremist group alShabab in east Africa.

Smoke billowed from inside the heavily-fortified presidential compound, and loud explosions and gunfire could be heard as troops tried to repel the intruders. After more than two hours of fighting, Somalia’s presidency said in a Twitter update that “the shameful attack” had been foiled

by Somalia’s armed forces fighting alongside African Union peacekeepers.

Al-Shabab claimed responsibility for the attack.

BELLINGHAM, Wash. ale Holdsworth strode to the counter at Top Shelf Cannabis, inspected and sniffed a glass jar filled with marijuana, and said: “I’ll take two grams.”

Holdsworth paid $26.50 and held up the brown bag containing his pot as people applauded the store’s first transaction as Washington on Tuesday became the second state to allow people to buy marijuana legally in the U.S. without a doctor’s note.

“This is a great moment,” said the 29-year-old from Abilene, Kan., as a swarm of reporters and television cameras recorded the moment.

People began buying marijuana at 8 a.m. at Top Shelf Cannabis, which started selling the drug as soon as it was allowed under state regulations.

Before it opened, several dozen people lined up outside the shop in this liberal college town of about 80,000 north of Seattle.

Holdsworth was first in line, along with his girlfriend, Sarah Gorton, and her younger brother. They showed up at 4 a.m.

Gorton said the trio was in Bellingham for her grandfather’s 84th birthday. State law allows both Washington residents and people from out of state to purchase a limited amount of pot.

“It’s just a happy coincidence and an opportunity we’re not going to have for a long time,” said Gorton, a 24-year-old with dreadlocks and homemade jewelry. “I’m really thrilled to be a part of something that I never thought would happen.”

In Seattle, hundreds of people waited in the warm sunshine outside the city’s first pot shop, Cannabis City, which opened at noon.

Store owner James Lathrop, holding a large scissors to cut the ribbon for the official opening, said it was time to “free the weed.”

The first customer, 65-year-old retiree Deb Greene, hugged and thanked Alison Holcomb, the author of Washington’s marijuana law, before she placed her order for 8 grams, total $160.01 with tax.

“It’s so remarkable,” Greene said. “We’re showing the way.”

The start of legal pot sales in Washington marks a major step that’s been 20 months in the making.

Washington and Colorado stunned much of the world by voting in November 2012 to legalize marijuana for adults over 21, and to create state-licensed systems for growing, selling and taxing the pot. Sales began in Colorado on Jan. 1.

Washington issued its first 24 retail licenses Monday.

An Associated Press survey of the licensees showed only about six planned to open Tuesday: two in Bellingham, one in Seattle, one in Spokane, one in Prosser and one in Kelso.

Some were set to open later this week or next, while others said it could be a month or more before they could acquire marijuana to sell.

It’s been a bumpy ride in Washington, with product shortages expected as growers and sellers scrambled to prepare.

Pot prices were expected to be

higher than what people pay at the state’s unregulated medical marijuana dispensaries.

That was largely due to the short supply of legally produced pot in the state.

Although more than 2,600 people applied to become licensed growers, fewer than 100 have been approved — and only about a dozen were ready to harvest by early this month.

Colorado already had a regulated medical marijuana system, making for a smoother transition when it allowed those dispensaries to start selling to recreational pot shops Jan. 1.

Washington’s medical system is unregulated, so officials here were starting from scratch as they immersed themselves in the pot world and tried to come up with regulations that made sense for the industry and the public.

The rules include protocols for testing marijuana and requirements for childresistant packaging.

Officials also had to determine things like how much criminal history was too much to get a license, and what types of security systems pot shops and growers should have.

Washington law allows the sale of up to an ounce of dried marijuana, 16 ounces of pot-infused solids, 72 ounces of potinfused liquids or 7 grams of concentrated marijuana, like hashish, to adults over 21.

Brian Kost, a 45-year-old Bellingham man, was among the first in line at Top Shelf Cannabis, in an industrial area off Interstate 5. He said he hadn’t smoked marijuana in 17 years because he didn’t like the hassle of trying to find it on the illegal market.

“With the chance to buy it legally, I just couldn’t pass it up,” Kost said. “I never thought I’d see the day.”

Gorton said she, her brother and boyfriend planned to head back to their relatives’ house and sample their purchase.

“We’re probably going to break open a bottle of wine, sit on the porch and enjoy this,” she said.

ALASKA (legalization) Marijuana legalization failed in Alaska in 2000 and 2004, but advocates say the landscape has changed markedly since then. If the measure is approved, adults could use marijuana legally and purchase it at state-licensed stores, but use in public would still be illegal.

OREGON (legalization) Oregonians rejected legalization just two years ago but are all but certain to have a chance to reconsider this November. It was the first state to decriminalize smallscale marijuana possession in 1973. Oregon was also among the first states to approve medical marijuana.

DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA (legalization) The D.C. Cannabis Campaign says the group submitted 55,000 signatures for a legalization initiative on Monday. Last month, the Republican-controlled House took a big step toward blocking a decriminalization bill passed by city lawmakers. Congress used a similar amendment to block the District from implementing its medical marijuana program for 10 years.

Nigeria’s council promises ‘good news’ soon on kidnapped girls ABUJA, Nigeria — Nigeria’s National Council of State is promising to deliver “some good news” very soon about more than 200 schoolgirls held captive by Islamic extremists for nearly three months.

The council, made up of past presidents, state governors and leaders of parliament, is “satisfied the security agents know very well where the girls are located,” Gov. Godwill Akpabio told reporters at a briefing.

The rescue of the girls was top of the agenda at the meeting Tuesday, he said, and “military authorities also confirmed that efforts were being made and that very soon we will have good news.”

Tuesday’s council commended Nigeria’s military and security agents, who have been roundly criticized at home and abroad for their failure to swiftly rescue the girls and to curb an escalating Islamic uprising by Boko Haram that has killed thousands. Some 276 schoolgirls were abducted April 15 from a school in northeast Chibok town. Dozens escaped and 219 still are missing.

Survey finds math, science grads earn top dollar

NEW YORK (medical) New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo signed a bill over the weekend making his state the 23rd to allow medical marijuana, though his state will have one of the most restrictive programs in the country.

WASHINGTON — What you study for a degree — math and science are a plus— matters according to a report released Tuesday by the Education Department.

The survey of the class of 2008, by the National Center for Education Statistics, says college grads reported lower unemployment rates compared with the national average.

A paltry 16 percent of students took home degrees in science, technology, engineering or math. But those who did were paid significantly better — averaging $65,000 a year compared with $49,500 of graduates of other degrees. The findings are based on a survey of 17,110 students conducted in 2012, about four years after the students obtained their bachelor’s degrees.

Male grads reported earning more — $57,800 on average — than their female classmates in full-time jobs, who averaged $47,400.

DES MOINES, Iowa — An AIDS research team at Iowa State University will not get the final $1.38 million payment of a National Institutes of Health five-year grant after a team member admitted last year to faking research results, the NIH said Tuesday. One of the members of the research team, Dong-Pyou Han, has pleaded not guilty in federal court. He is free on bond awaiting trial scheduled for Sept. 2.

The research team, led by biomedical sciences professor Michael Cho, was awarded $6.8 million to be paid over five years by the NIH, but it won’t see the last payment. The team previously received grants totaling $7.6 million.

The university has agreed to repay the government for Han’s salary and other costs tied to his employment at ISU during the research.

Forgotten vials of smallpox discovered CDC says no leaks in storage room

By Lena H. Su and Brady Dennis

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — A government scientist cleaning out a storage room at a lab on Bethesda, Maryland campus of the National Institutes of Health found decades-old vials of smallpox last week, the second incident involving the mishandling of a highly dangerous pathogen by a federal health agency in a month.

The vials, which appear to date from the 1950s, were flown Sunday night by government plane to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention headquarters in Atlanta, officials said Tuesday.

Initial testing confirmed the presence of smallpox virus DNA. Further testing, which could take up to two weeks, will determine whether the material is live. The samples will be destroyed after the testing is completed.

There is no evidence that any of the vials had been breached or that workers in the lab, which has been used by the Food and Drug Administration for decades, were exposed to infection.

Nevertheless, employees apparently had not received official communication about the discovery.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the CDC’s division of select agents and toxins are investigating. “Due to the potential bio-safety and bio-security issues involved, the FBI worked with CDC and NIH to ensure safe packaging and secure transport of the materials,” said FBI spokesman Christopher Allen.

This is the first time that the deadly virus has been discovered outside the only two facilities in the world where smallpox samples are allowed, by international agreement, to be stored — a highly secure lab at CDC headquarters in Atlanta and a virology and biotechnology research center in Novosibirsk, Russia.

Smallpox vanished from the United States just after World War II and was eradicated globally by 1980. But the disease killed hundreds of millions of people in the 20th Century alone.

“It was considered one of the worst things that could happen to a community to have a smallpox outbreak,” said Michael Osterholm, a bioterrorism expert and director of the Center for Infectious Diseases Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.

There is no cure for smallpox, and historically about one-third of people who contract it die from the disease.

Though not as readily contagious as some other diseases, such as influenza, smallpox promises plenty of misery once contracted. Symptoms include high fever, fatigue and fluid-filled lesions that often ooze and crust over, leaving survivors irreversibly scarred.

Last month, a safety lapse involving three CDC labs in Atlanta led to the accidental release of live anthrax bacteria, an incident that required as many as 84 employees to get a vaccine or take antibiotics as a precaution and resulted in the reassignment of one lab director. Scientists failed to take proper precautions to inactivate bacteria samples before transferring them to other labs not equipped to handle live anthrax.

The biggest mystery about the smallpox discovery is how the samples ended up in Building 29A on the NIH campus. The vials were discovered while employees were preparing for the lab’s move to the FDA’s main campus at White Oak, Md. An NIH spokeswoman said the agency is planning a comprehensive search of all laboratory spaces. The CDC notified the World Health Organization.

25 killed in Gaza as Israel begins offensive Hamas rockets hit Jerusalem

By Josef Federman and Najib Jobain The Associated Press

JERUSALEM — Israel on Tuesday launched its largest offensive in the Gaza Strip in nearly two years, carrying out a blistering aerial assault on scores of targets and killing 25 people in what officials called an open-ended operation aimed at ending weeks of heavy rocket fire.

As Gaza militants unleashed salvos on cities including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, Israel mobilized forces along the border for a possible ground invasion.

The offensive set off the heaviest fighting between Israel and the Islamic militant group Hamas since an eight-day battle in November 2012.

The militants fired about 160 rockets at Israel, including a strike that reached the northern city of Hadera for the first time, while Israel said it attacked more than 150 sites across Gaza.

Palestinian medics reported at least 25 dead, including six killed in an airstrike that flattened an apartment building in southern Gaza and set off widespread panic.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said continued rocket attacks on Israeli communities would not be tolerated.

“Therefore I have ordered the military to significantly broaden its operation against Hamas terrorists and against the other terrorist groups inside Gaza,” he said on national TV. “I call on you to display patience because

Palestinians try to salvage what they can of their belongings from the rubble of a house destroyed by an overnight Israeli airstrike Tuesday in Gaza City. KHALIL HAMRA/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

this operation could take time.”

Israel and Hamas are bitter enemies that have engaged in numerous rounds of fighting over the years. But until recently, they had been observing a truce that ended the previous hostilities in 2012.

Tensions have been rising since Palestinian militants kidnapped three Israeli teenagers in the West Bank on June 12. Accusing Hamas of being behind the abductions, Israel launched a crackdown on the group’s members in the West Bank and arrested hundreds of people. Hamas, which controls Gaza, responded by stepping up rocket fire.

The situation deteriorated last week after the bodies of the Israeli youths were found, and a Palestinian teenager in Jerusalem was abducted and burned to death in what Palestinians believe was a revenge attack. Six Jewish Israelis have been arrested in the killing, and the rocket fire from Gaza has

increased in recent days.

The fighting raged throughout the day. In its fiercest attack, an airstrike flattened the home of a Hamas militant in the southern Gaza town of Khan Younis, reducing the concrete structure into a smoldering pile of rubble.

Panicked residents fled, shouting “God is great.” Some had bloody faces, and crying mothers held small children as they ran away.

Screaming Palestinians took away motionless bodies. Pales-

tinian medical officials said six people, including two children, were killed.

Israel’s military said it had called the home shortly before the airstrike to warn civilians to leave, something it has done in past fighting as well.

The normally bustling streets of Gaza City were deserted late Tuesday. Fearing an Israeli ground operation, many residents from areas near the border moved to stay with relatives living deeper inside Gaza.

In southern Israel, hundreds of thousands of citizens were ordered to stay close to home because of the rockets.

Israeli streets were also quieter in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem after attempted rocket strikes set off air-raid sirens in Israel’s two largest cities.

Militants twice fired rockets at Tel Aviv, Israel’s commercial capital, sending people scurrying for cover. Both were intercepted by the “Iron Dome” rocket defense system.

Late Tuesday, Hamas said it fired four rockets toward Jerusalem, and two distant booms were heard from the city’s center.

Three rockets landed in the Jerusalem area, officials said, and police said there were no injuries.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon condemned the multiple rocket attacks on Israel from Gaza and demanded an immediate halt to the attacks.

Arab League Chief Nabil Elaraby called for an emergency session of the U.N. Security Council to stop the violence.

Gay rights groups abandon anti-bias measure

By Ed O’Keefe

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Several major gay rights groups withdrew support Tuesday for legislation that would bolster gay and transgender rights in the workplace, saying they fear that private companies will use a recent Supreme Court ruling to claim religious exemptions from the bill.

The calls to rewrite the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) marks a major setback for the White House, which had used Senate passage of the legislation last fall as a way to draw a contrast with House Republicans, who have refused to vote on the measure.

The groups said they can no longer back ENDA as currently written in light of a decision last week by the Supreme Court, which ruled that Hobby Lobby Stores and other closely held businesses do not have to offer their employees contraceptive coverage if it conflicts with the owners’ religious beliefs.

Signs of crumbling support for ENDA came first Tuesday from the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, one of several gay rights groups that has pushed Obama to expand gay rights since the start of his presidency.

“If a private company can take its own religious beliefs and say you can’t have access to certain health care, it’s a hop, skip and a jump to an interpretation that a private company could have religious beliefs that LGBT people are not equal or somehow go against their beliefs and therefore fire them,” said Rea Carey, the group’s executive director.

A coalition led by the American Civil Liberties Union, Lambda Legal and the National Center for Lesbian Rights said in a joint statement Tuesday that they also would be withdrawing support.

The Senate approved ENDA with bipartisan support last November, marking the first time federal lawmakers had approved legislation to advance gay rights since repealing the military’s ban on gay men and lesbians in uniform in late 2010.

House Republicans have said they will not take up the bill, in part because they believe the bill’s current religious exemptions aren’t clear or broad enough.

Twenty-one states and the District of Columbia have laws prohibiting workplace discrimination based on sexual orientation, while 17 states and the District of Columbia also bar discrimination based on gender identity. Hundreds of the nation’s largest companies have similar bans.

Not all gay rights groups have abandoned ENDA. The Human Rights Campaign said Tuesday that it continues to support the bill “because it will provide essential workplace protections to millions of LGBT people.”

On another front, Carey’s group also is pushing against a broad religious exemption in an executive order that Obama is expected to sign banning discrimination against gay, lesbian and transgender employees of federal contractors. Gay rights groups say the order is the last significant action that Obama is likely to take in expanding gay rights without the cooperation of Congress.

But religious leaders, responding to last week’s contraception ruling, have redoubled efforts to ensure that Obama includes a religious exemption in his executive order.

Sen. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., a lead sponsor of ENDA and the Senate’s first openly lesbian member, said Tuesday that she was still reviewing the decision by gay rights groups to withdraw support for the bill.

Baldwin said the bill’s religious exemption language had been tweaked last year in order to secure more support from Democrats and Republicans.

Among gay rights groups, Baldwin said, “there was clearly discomfort expressed at that point.”

In a post-convention report, organizers of Tampa, Fla.’s 2012 GOP convention said its $58 million in fundraising resulted in a $214 million direct economic impact. Some 50,000 activists, officials and reporters descended on the Tampa area for the convention, officials said.

The convention offers Cleveland an opportunity to re-introduce itself after decades of bad fortunes.

Gone are the days when Cleveland’s polluted Cuyahoga River caught fire. The city, once dubbed “The Mistake by the Lake,” has undergone dramatic redevelopment in recent years — $4.5 billion in projects have been completed in the past decade or are about to begin construction.

Miracles happen everyday, but New Mexico’s favorite type of miracle happens over great Mexican and New Mexican dishes. Valentine’s Plate, at Valentina’s Restaurant on West Alameda, is one of the better miracles happening there at any given moment. Valentina’s draws on a line of family recipes and Santa Fe’s best Mexican restaurants to offer a fresh, homestyle take on the City Different’s staple cuisine.

“It’s my favorite dish, and it sums up what the restaurant is all about,” said Alberto Aboytes, chief proprietor at Valentina’s Restaurant. Valentina’s Plate starts with a blue corn enchilada, Arrachera flank steak and a chalupa served with three prawns to complete a delectable trio. “It’s a fun dish to make, and reminds me of home,” he said.

Aboytes worked at El Comal Café

Aboytes put together a diverse menu, with plates ranging from hearty breakfast dishes to smothered or handheld burritos, chalupas, tacos and tamales.

Meat and seafood options are plentiful (including molé and menudo) and vegetarian options for signature plates abound. Reviewers on Yelp have already registered their approval, with four reviewers ranking Valentina’s five out of five possible stars. Reviewers held Valentina’s red and green chile in high regard,

Wisconsin plant’s slow demise shows nuclear towns’ plight After closing, cleanup could take decades

By Tim Jones

Bloomberg News

CHICAGO — The best jobs and the biggest employer are disappearing from the town of Carlton, Wis., leaving behind a site that should be ready for a new employer to move in, perhaps a half-century from now.

That’s the legacy of the 2013 shutdown of the Kewaunee Power Station, which generated nuclear energy for 39 years along the shoreline of Lake Michigan.

The plant is being dismantled, or decommissioned, a potentially decades-long cleanup that could remove as much as 900 acres from the economic development base of rural Kewaunee County.

“Probably 60 years for sure,” said David Hardtke, the chair-

man of the town of about 1,000.

“All I know is I won’t be around.

I guess my kids will have to fight that one out.”

The Wisconsin facility is part of what Moody’s Investors Service describes as the largest wave of U.S.-based nuclear and coal electric-plant retirements in the past 35 years. The closings stem from abundant supplies of cheaper natural gas and changes in environmental policies. The consequences can be sudden and drastic, affecting school funding, real estate values and economic development that were linked to the facilities.

Unlike abandoned industrial plants, which can be retooled for another manufacturer, nuclear plants leave another legacy: radioactive waste, which at the Kewaunee site sits in concrete canisters about 100 yards from Lake Michigan.

“The challenge that local officials have to face is large,” said

Julie Beglin, one of the Moody report’s co-authors.

Sixty-four nuclear plant sites are spread across the country, with 100 operating reactors, according to the Nuclear Energy Institute. About half those reactors are comparable in age to the Kewaunee facility, having been built between 1968 and 1979. The plentiful supply of less-expensive energy, such as natural gas, increases the risk to local governments that are financially reliant on the plants, Moody’s said.

“These places are located in largely rural communities and so they are often the biggest taxpayer in the locality,” said Daniel Lipman, executive director of the Nuclear Energy Institute, the Washington-based nonprofit advocate for the nuclear power industry.

Dominion Resources Inc., a Richmond, Va.-based power company, closed the 556-megawatt Wisconsin plant in May

The process must be completed within 60 years, according to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Seventeen plants, including Kewaunee, are in some phase of decommissioning, the NRC said on its website.

The Wisconsin facility was the largest employer in Kewaunee County, a rural expanse east of Green Bay, where dairy cows outnumber the 21,000 people by a ratio of more than 2-to-1. About 630 people worked at the plant before it closed last year. Now, about 260 work on mothballing it. By October, only 140 will.

“They were the highestpaying jobs in the county, and a big chunk of that was flowing through the economy,” said Ron Heuer, chairman of the county board of commissioners. “What the hell do we do now?”

Linda Sinkula, Carlton’s clerk and also a county supervisor, said the town will have little choice but to raise taxes.

2013, citing economics that worked against it.

“It was cheaper to purchase energy on the open market than to produce it at Kewaunee,” said Mark Kanz, a company spokesman. “I’m sure it won’t be the last to close. There will be other plants that go through decommissioning, whether it’s economics or from equipmentrelated issues.”

The Vermont Yankee nuclear power station, in the southeast Vermont community of Vernon, is to close by year-end. Moody’s said the town of 2,200 receives 48 percent its operating revenue from operation of the plant, which is owned by Entergy Corp.

The aftermath of a nuclear power plant’s leaving a community is more complicated and lengthy than the end of a conventional industrial facility. Federal regulations governing the decommissioning of sites are designed to protect the public.

“It’s just a mess,” she said.

The experience of Zion, Ill., a Lake Michigan community of 24,000 about halfway between Chicago and Milwaukee, suggests the value will be a fraction of the taxes generated when that town’s plant was operating.

The Zion nuclear power station, built in 1973, closed in 1998 after an equipment failure led to a yearlong shutdown. At its peak in 1996, the plant on about 200 acres paid the town $19.6 million, according to Finance Director David Knabel. That was roughly half the tax base, he said.

More than 16 years later, the plant is still being dismantled.

The cooling towers remain, and nuclear waste is stored in a bunker. Taxes collected on the site amounted to only $1.5 million in 2012, Knabel said. “There’s 200 acres of lakefront property that is completely undevelopable, unusable until they are done decommissioning the site,” Knabel said.

Religious leaders press president for exclusion Obama has yet to sign order barring gay discrimination

By Julie Hirschfeld Davis and Erik Eckholm The New York Times

WASHINGTON — After a setback in the Supreme Court in the Hobby Lobby case, President Barack Obama is facing mounting pressure from religious groups demanding to be excluded from his long-promised executive order that would bar discrimination against gays and lesbians by companies that do government work.

The president has yet to sign the executive order, but last week a group of major faith organizations, including some of Obama’s allies, said he should consider adding an exemption for groups whose religious beliefs oppose homosexuality.

In Burwell v. Hobby Lobby, the court ruled that family-run corporations with religious objections could be exempted from providing employees with insurance coverage for contraception.

The demands of the faith organizations pose a dilemma for Obama, who has struggled to preserve freedom of expression among religious groups while supporting the rights of gays and lesbians. Obama could unleash a conservative uproar if he is seen as intruding on religious beliefs, but many of his strongest supporters would be bitterly disappointed if he appeared to grant any leeway to anti-gay discrimination.

The White House has given no reason for the executive order’s delay.

In a July 1 letter to Obama sent the day after Hobby Lobby was decided, the religious leaders wrote that “we are asking that an extension of protection for one group not come at the expense of faith communities whose religious identity and beliefs motivate them to serve those in need.”

The effort behind the letter was organized by Michael Wear, who worked in the White House faith-based initiative during Obama’s first term and directed the president’s faith outreach in the 2012 campaign. The letter, which called for a “robust religious exemption” in the planned executive order, was also signed by the chief executive of Catholic Charities USA; Rick Warren, who delivered the invocation at Obama’s first inauguration; and the president of World Relief, an aid group affiliated with the National Association of Evangelicals.

Wear, who calls himself an “ardent supporter” of the president and a backer of gay rights, said in an interview Tuesday that the rationale of the organizations was to maintain the rights they have. “We’re not trying to support crazy claims of religious privilege,” he said.

He described the letter as a request from “friends of the administration” to insure that the executive order provides “robust” protection of religious service organizations that uphold religious-based moral standards for their staffs, whether Catholic, Jewish or Muslim.

Park: Council to keep Carson’s name on cemetery Continued from Page A-1 members of Taos Pueblo expressed discomfort with that title for a town park.

They say ancestors of Taos Indians occupied the area long before Columbus reached America. In tribal language, their name translates to “People of the Red Willow.”

Council member Frederick Peralta said that, after a communitywide discussion, the name Red Willow could be reinstated. He predicted that the park would not carry Carson’s name after the debate concludes.

“I don’t think the majority is on that side. I think it should be changed,” Peralta said.

A majority of people at the council meeting seemed to agree with him.

They said too many public buildings and places are named for men of war. One woman suggested Peace Park as a name preferable to Carson’s. Others said Red Willow is an

honorable name rooted in history, and that it would be a welcome change from Kit Carson Park.

“Is Carson really the most important historical figure of Taos?” asked Sylvia Rodríguez.

She and others had praised the council for its original stand. Taking on the contentious issue of the park being named for Carson was a controversy ignored by local government for at least 30 years, they said.

Peggy Nelson told the council symbols are important, and that is why cities and schools make changes as history comes into clearer perspective.

She pointed to Penn State University as an example. The school recast a mural to delete a drawing of former assistant football coach Jerry Sandusky after he was convicted in 2012 of molesting boys. In place of Sandusky, Penn State added Taos poet Dora McQuaid to the mural. She is a Penn State graduate.

Mexico: 22 killed

Nelson said that change was but one example of an enlightened society changing a symbol of hurt and turning it into one of hope.

Carson’s detractors consider him a brutal mercenary because of his work for the U.S. government in relocating 8,000 Navajos from Arizona to New Mexico. Some 200 died during two months of travel during a rough winter.

“It’s more their feeling that Kit Carson was a Nazi,” said Peralta, one of the council members, who supports the name change.

Other area residents said Carson was not unduly harsh on Navajos, and that two of his three wives were American Indians.

Neal Thielke of Llano told the council it had been “snookered” by activists who sought a name change for the park by reducing a complicated section of history to one of simplicity.

Cordova, the history professor, took the same position.

“I stand on the side of history.

Leave it alone,” he said of the park’s name in honor of Carson.

Though the next name of the park is anyone’s guess, the council will keep Carson’s name on the cemetery where he is buried.

That proposal was first floated Tuesday by Town Manager Rick Bellis. Councilor Andrew Gonzales then incorporated the idea into a convoluted motion that negated the council’s previous decision to rename the park Red Willow.

All the additional debate did not sit well with Andres Vargas. He said said revisiting the name change was a concession to what he called “Kit Carson apologists.”

little evidence of sustained fighting.

One witness who lives near the warehouse said he heard almost two hours of automatic gunfire and loud bangs during the pre-dawn hours of June 30. But he couldn’t say if it came from the warehouse or from the forested hillsides around it. The man, who did not want to be identified for fear of reprisals, said he saw soldiers searching the hillsides after the shooting stopped.

Despite that heavy gunfire, only about six incoming rounds appeared to have hit the facade of the warehouse, the only part of the building with a window or door where soldiers likely would have been firing at people holed up inside.

There also were also no signs of continuous shooting inside the building, few bullet marks and no casings. But there was ample evidence of death.

The floor was stained with pools of drying blood and scattered with pieces of numbered paper left by investigators to mark where bodies were found.

At least five spots along the warehouse’s inside walls showed the same pattern: One or two closely placed bullet pocks, surrounded by a mass of spattered blood, giving the appearance that some of those killed were standing against the wall and were hit by one or two shots at about chest level.

The distance at which the fatal shots were fired has not made public by the Mexico State prosecutor’s office, which is carrying out the autopsies. A state official said the office could not release the cause of death because it is a federal case, but a federal official denied that. Both officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak on the record. The Mexican Defense Department did not respond to requests for comment.

Two observers of the United Nations’ High Commission on Human Rights, who inspected the warehouse just moments before state authorities closed it off with police “no entry” tape, noted that they found no signs of stray bullets of the type that would be left by soldiers shooting automatic weapons from a distance. Nor did they see signs of outgoing fire from within the warehouse. “I also find that remarkable,” said U.N. observer Tom Haeck, adding that no conclusions had yet been drawn, and that any report would be for U.N. internal use.

The Mexican army’s rules of engagement allow soldiers to fire on armed civilians only if the civilians fire first. In some cases there is evidence that heavily armed drug gangs have attacked the military. A convoy of troops and police came under fire on May 16 in Michoacan state; four soldiers were killed and several wounded. The military said two soldiers died in another Michoacan ambush in January. Five soldiers died in a 2007 ambush in the same state.

But far more common of late are cases in which soldiers say they came under fire and only the attackers were killed. The army reported a May 8 clash in Zacatecas state in which troops killed seven armed men without taking casualties. In four cases in the span of a week in late April, officials said federal forces killed 12 men who attacked them, but suffered no casualties themselves. The army said troops killed 11 other alleged hit men who fired on them in the northern border state of Tamaulipas in 2010.

Renewable energy advocates and environmental groups disagree, however, saying the proposal isn’t the least expensive plan for ratepayers and isn’t the most environmentally friendly. Environmentalists take particular issue with PNM including coal and nuclear energy in its plan to replace millions of kilowatts generated by the two San Juan units slated for closure by 2017.

David Robertson of the Sierra Club’s Rio Grande Chapter said PNM’s plan will use millions of gallons more water than if the utility opted for greater reliance on renewable energy.

New Energy Economy and the Sierra Club both advocate a plan that would more than double the amount of renewable energy in PNM’s proposal.

“Our plan, which is no new coal and no added nuclear and a total of 30 percent renewables, is absolutely cheaper and as reliable and without the financial vulnerability,” said Mariel Nanasi, an attorney and executive director of Santa Fe-based New Energy Economy.

O’Connell said in a recent interview that he had heard of the groups’ proposal, but “I have yet to see anything that is specific.”

Planning ahead The “integrated resource plan” that PNM filed last week is closely tied to a San Juan power replacement proposal filed with the PRC in December. Both must be approved separately by the PRC before they can move forward.

PNM has to file an integrated resource plan every four years. Each plan requires a year of public input and meetings. A big part of this year’s plan is how PNM will replace power from the San Juan units.

O’Connell said his team ran through hundreds of scenarios before coming up with the proposed energy mix, which would be used through 2035.

PNM had to take into account the cost of a new carbon rule — an estimated $35 to $55 per ton of carbon emissions.

O’Connell said renewable energy and natural gas will likely provide a lot more of the power used by customers in the years ahead.

Battery storage for renewable energy in particular “could be a game changer,” he said. The cost of solar power already has declined dramatically in the last five years. Limited storage options have been the primary hurdle to expanding solar and wind, which can’t provide electricity constantly like natural gas or nuclear. PNM is experimenting with ways to store the renewable power at an experimental site near Albuquerque.

But currently, PNM says, a mix of coal, nuclear, solar and natural gas is the most reliable and least expensive way to replace power from the San Juan units slated for closure.

PNM originally told state regulators it wanted to buy an additional 78 megawatts of coal power generated by other units at San Juan. But in May, the company changed that request to 132

COST ESTIMATES 20-year total costs of different scenarios for PNM’s energy mix: $6.852 billion: Close two units at San Juan Generating Station and include Palo Verde nuclear power as part of the replacement mix $6.857 billion: Close two units at San Juan and exclude Palo Verde as part of the replacement mix $7.2 billion: Close all four units at San Juan and replace all the power $7.6 billion: Keep the four San Juan units running with a pollution control technology proposed by the federal government SOURCE: PUBLIC SERVICE COMPANY OF NEW MEXICO

megawatts of additional coal power.

Sierra Club and New Energy Economy said that proposal will cost more in dollars, water use and long-term environmental problems.

For one thing, Nanasi said, PNM didn’t include the costs of a new proposed federal regulation for coal ash produced at coal-fired plants, which would make coal ash a hazardous waste.

In a recent report to investors, PNM notes that the new regulation would result in “significant exposure” to increased costs.

PNM also wants to start selling its New Mexico customers energy it owns from its share of the Palo Verde Nuclear Power plant in Arizona.

Currently, that power is being sold to other customers on the open market.

Nanasi said estimates based on PNM’s own filings show the company would sell the power to New Mexico customers at a higher rate than it charges other customers. “Currently, they lose more than $6 million on Palo Verde III,” Nanasi said. “It will turn their losses into profits on the backs of PNM ratepayers.”

Timing and scale O’Connell said he understands renewable energy and environmental advocates want to see solar and wind increased dramatically.

“We’ve been adding and are planning to add more renewable energy,” he said.

But PNM has been constrained by costs, he said. If the company had added more solar six years ago, he said, the cost to consumers would have been more than twice what a solar facility would cost now.

He expects new technology and market changes to keep driving down the cost of renewable energy.

A hearing on the San Juan Generating Station retirement and power replacement plan is scheduled for October. The PRC has not yet scheduled hearing on PNM’s integrated resource plan.

Surge: Obama to visit Texas, meet with Gov. Perry Continued from Page A-1 letter to congressional leaders, Obama urged them to “act expeditiously” on his request.

Republican lawmakers who have long demanded tougher enforcement of immigration laws along the border expressed cautious support Tuesday for beefing up the federal presence in the Rio Grande Valley, where most of the children have been crossing into the United States.

But many Republicans, especially in the House, remain deeply suspicious of the president’s commitment, a mistrust that led to a stalemate on a broader immigration overhaul and now threatens to at least delay speedy passage of Obama’s $3.7 billion spending request.

“Let’s remember, this administration went around for years saying the border has never been more secure than it is now,” said Sen. Marco Rubio of Florida, a potential Republican presidential candidate in 2016. “I think that’s been exposed as a fallacy over the last three weeks.”

House Speaker John Boehner said the president’s plan failed to deploy

the National Guard, an idea the White House said would not be effective.

And Rep. John Carter of Texas said he was wary of any measure that gave Obama too much autonomy.

“The president caused this selfinflicted crisis on the border by refusing to enforce the law,” said Carter, a senior member of the House Appropriations Committee, which is likely to be asked to approve the request. “And now he is requesting a $3.7 billion bailout from the taxpayers to rectify his mistakes.”

Some Democrats, like Sen. Robert Menendez of New Jersey, have expressed strong misgivings about any plan that would allow for unaccompanied children to be sent back home to dangerous situations.

The charged politics will shadow a long-planned trip that Obama began Tuesday and will include a two-day stop in Texas. The trip will underscore the difficulties for the White House on immigration. The president is calling for immediate action on the border even as he remains under pressure by activists to relax deportations.

After insisting that Obama had

no plans to visit the Texas-Mexico border, White House officials said he would meet with Gov. Rick Perry.

Perry, who is considering a second run for the Republican presidential nomination, had declined to participate in a photo opportunity with Obama in front of Air Force One, prompting a last-minute offer by the White House for the two to meet.

A Perry spokesman said they would meet privately and attend a round-table discussion with religious leaders and local officials.

The president’s funding request is certain to revive legislative passions that prompted Obama to promise sweeping executive actions to get around Republican opposition to a bill that would provide a path to citizenship for 11 million illegal immigrants. Republicans in both chambers hinted Tuesday that they might insist on corresponding spending cuts or make other demands that Obama and his allies are likely to oppose.

Sen. John Cornyn of Texas, the chamber’s No. 2 Republican, said that Obama’s request lacked the substantive policy changes needed to deal with issues like detaining those who

cross the border illegally and ensuring that they show up for court dates once they are apprehended.

“Apparently the president has given up on any effort to effect the kind of reforms that he knows and his administration knows are necessary,” Cornyn said.

White House officials said the president was not backing away from a request last week for more flexibility in how enforcement agents treat the Central American migrants who are surging across the border. A 2008 law aimed at combating human trafficking requires officials to provide extra legal protections for migrants from countries that do not share a border with the United States.

Those protections are not provided to Mexicans, who are often quickly returned home after being caught trying to enter the United States illegally. White House officials said they would like Congress to allow officials to process migrants from places like Honduras and Guatemala as quickly as Mexicans. One White House official said the administration was seeking to have “one approach to children coming from the region.”

Edge: Perea raises $4K in June Continued from Page A-1 Alamos County and parts of Santa Fe and Sandoval counties, was represented for 20 years by Republican Rep. Jeanette Wallace, who died in 2011. Garcia Richard won the seat in 2012 by a slim margin over Republican Jim Hall, whom Martinez had appointed to fill out Wallace’s term.

The latest campaign finance reports show Garcia Richard has raised $13,801 since the June primary.

Her biggest contributors in this report were a Democratic political action committee called the New Mexico House Majority Fund, which gave $5,000; the Pueblo of Isleta, which contributed $2,000; Emily’s List, a national PAC that supports female candidates, which gave $1,000; and Dr. Curtis Boyd of Albuquerque, who gave $1,000.

Garcia Richard spent $6,018 in that period. The biggest chunk was $4,500 for campaign strategist Tarin Nix. Republican Rodgers, who is chairman of the Los Alamos County Council, raised $3,925 in June and spent $2,634. His biggest contributors in last week’s reports were the Chaves County Republican Central Committee, which gave $1,550, and Rep. James White, R-Albuquerque, who gave $1,000. White is not seeking re-election this year.

Rodgers’ biggest expenditures were $1,741 paid to Red Tag Strategies for political mailings and $705 for radio ads.

In District 50, Perea was appointed to take the place of freshman Rep. Stephen Easley of Eldorado, a Democrat who died unexpectedly last year. District 50 includes part of southeastern Santa Fe County as well as parts of Bernalillo, Torrance and Valencia counties.

McQueen reported he had raised $6,079 and spent $5,606 since the primary. His major contributor in the last report was Forward NM PAC, which gave him $2,500.

The biggest share of his spending went for political consultants: $3,250 to Emily Thomas of Albuquerque and $2,100 to Joy Pesonen of Santa Fe. Incumbent Perea said she raised $4,245 and spent $494 in June. As was the case with Rodgers, her major donors were the Chavez County Republican Central Committee ($1,500) and Rep. White ($1,000).

In previous campaign finance reports, both Perea and Rodgers listed contributors they had in common. Both Republicans reported $4,800 contributions from the Builders Trust of New Mexico.

Many of their contributors were oil companies that traditionally give to GOP candidates, including Devon Energy of Oklahoma City ($4,800 to Perea, $2,400 to Rodgers) and Occidental of Dallas ($2,000 for Rodgers, $1,000 for Perea).

Perea also had contributions from other oil and gas interests: Mack Energy of Artesia ($3,050), Roswell oilman Harvey Yates ($2,500) and The Jalapeño Corp. ($2,000).

One of Rodgers’ biggest contributors in previous reports was a political action committee headed by former Rep. David Doyle, R-Rio Rancho, called New Mexico Forward, which gave him $4,000.

Both Garcia Richard and McQueen have benefited from a number of Democratic political committees and PACs that traditionally have contributed to Democrats. Most of these committees get their funding from national Democratic Party groups like the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee, unions, trial lawyers and legislative campaigns.

The Committee on Individual Responsibility, a trial lawyer’s group, gave $5,200 to both candidates.

New Mexico Freedom gave Garcia Richard $5,000 and McQueen $1,000.

House Speaker Kenny Martinez’s Leadership Fund has given McQueen $5,200 and Garcia Richard $3,350.

Garcia Richard has received contributions from Democratic committees including Forward NM PAC ($5,200), Viva New Mexico PAC ($5,000) and Our New Mexico ($1,500). She also got a $2,400 contribution from the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees.

McQueen has received $5,000 contributions from the New Mexico Defense Fund and Rick Miera Leadership PAC. Rep. Miera, D-Albuquerque, is the House majority leader and is not seeking re-election.

Another PAC supporting McQueen — contributing $1,500 — is A Strong New Mexico PAC. McQueen loaned himself $10,000 in February. His father, Alan McQueen, and stepmother, Maria McQueen, both of Long Beach, Calif., gave his campaign $4,800 each.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

U.S. must respond to border crisis

Y

our editorial (“Celebrate the Fourth: Have a heart,” Our View, July 4) has captured my response to the awful “unwelcoming” to the refugee crisis on the border reported graphically on television the past week.

I hope that your editorial is seen and read nationwide. It is well past the time when we should all be speaking up about this matter. I wish there had been someone or a chorus at the border to sing the words from Canadian Cree singer Buffy Sainte-Marie’s song, “Welcome, Welcome Emigrante.”

She sings, “I am proud, I am proud, I am proud of my forefathers and I say they built this country, and they came from far away to a land they didn’t know, the same way you do my friend … for they spoke a foreign language and they labored with their hands the same way you do my friend … and I sing about their patience for the work they did was lowly and they dirtied up their clothes … the same way you do my friend … So welcome, welcome, emigrante, to the country that I love.” You can hear her sing this amazing song on The Best of Buffy Sainte-Marie, Vol. 2 or the original, Many a Mile, from 1965.

Speed it up!

I read the article, (“City hopes to boost Internet speeds … ,” July 7) with great interest. My interest turned to anger as I read that the city residents enjoy an average Internet speed of 5 megabits per sec (mbps). I happen to live 10 miles south of the city and am “serviced” by

CenturyLink. This company provides an average Internet speed of 1 mbps, all for the same cost as Santa Fe or Albuquerque. This is not even fast enough to receive Netflix.

Though my neighbors and I have submitted a petition to the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission requesting an upgrade, it has done no good.

I encourage the citizens of Santa Fe to do anything that will encourage competition and growth in communications. It is clear that CenturyLink will not improve its service, except under the threat of losing customers. Improved communications will support job creation and growth of local businesses. Hopefully, the rest of us in the county might enjoy sloppy seconds.

COMMENTARY: CATHERINE RAMPELL

GOP seeks to block millennial voters

F

A-7

irst they came for blacks, and we said nothing. Then they came for Latinos, poor people and married women, and we again ignored the warning signs.

Now, after our years of apathy, they’re coming for us: the nation’s millennials.

Across the country, Republican state policymakers have hoisted barriers to voting by passing voter-ID laws and curtailing electoral accommodations such as same-day registration and early voting. These policy changes are allegedly intended to eradicate the imagined scourge of voter fraud, but the real point seems to be voter suppression.

For a time, the targeted populations were primarily racial, ethnic and income groups that traditionally vote Democratic. Now they happen to include GenY’ers, more specifically my college-age brethren. We millennials may be fickle in our loyalties, generally distrustful of government institutions and unaligned with any political party, but our generation’s motley, liberal-to-libertarian-leaning ideological preferences still threaten redstate leadership.

In response, Republicans have set out to erect creative, if potentially unconstitutional, Tough-Mudder-style obstacle courses along our path to the polls.

Last year in Ohio, for example, Republican legislators proposed a measure that would effectively strip hundreds of millions of dollars from state schools if they continued to provide students paying out-of-state tuition with the paperwork necessary to register to vote in the state (as courts have said college students are legally allowed to do). In Maine, the secretary of state investigated 200 uni-

versity students for voter fraud; he found no evidence of wrongdoing but then sent a threatening letter telling them that they must either obtain a Maine driver’s license and register their vehicles or cancel their state voter registrations. In Texas, photo identification is required to vote and, while concealed handgun licenses count, state-school-issued student IDs don’t.

North Carolina’s efforts have been particularly aggressive, perhaps because young people represent an especially threatening voting bloc to the Republicans in control there. Without the strong turnout of young voters in 2008, after all, Barack Obama would not have become the first Democratic presidential candidate in more than two decades to carry the Tar Heel state.

Like other states, North Carolina has eliminated many accommodations disproportionately used by young people and other first-time voters, such as sameday registration, and instituted voter-ID requirements that don’t recognize student IDs. But it has also stopped allowing 16- and 17-year-olds to fill out voter-registration forms early so that they can be automatically registered upon reaching majority age. Another state Senate bill last year would have effectively raised taxes on parents of students who registered to vote where they attend college.

Perhaps it is unsurprising, then, that the state faces a lawsuit filed by college students, aided by several voter registration advocacy groups, as The New York Times reported Sunday. The suit essentially claims that the state is engaging in age discrimination. Age discrimination accusations may be off-limits to young

people in employment settings — federal law doesn’t protect workers under age 40 — but when it comes to elections, the plaintiffs have a shot. The 26th Amendment, which lowered the federal voting age to 18 in 1971, guarantees that the right to vote “shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of age.”

Republican lawmakers may feel threatened by the political proclivities of millennials, but the truth is, aside from 2008, young people are not usually much of a concern to either party because our turnout rates are so poor. Of all age groups, Americans 18 to 29 consistently have the lowest participation rates — even in the 2008 election, when our generation was galvanized around an unusually inspiring presidential candidate promising hope and change. That year, just 51 percent of 18- to 29-year-olds cast ballots. Sadly, it was the first time since 1972 that a majority of young people voted.

For years, get-out-the-vote groups such as Rock the Vote and Citizen Change have tried to market voting as rebellious and enviably adult (including by enlisting celebrity spokespeople who were unregistered themselves, and at least one who was possibly barred from voting due to felony records). If Paris Hilton, 50 Cent and Madonna can’t convince young people to vote, maybe a bunch of old white men trying to bar their path will do the job.

Catherine Rampell comments on economics, policy and culture, and anchors The Washington Post’s Rampage blog.

o politician wants to raise taxes — that’s understood. But it’s a mistake to rule out increasing taxes across the board, as the first President George Bush found out when he famously said, “read my lips: no new taxes” in 1988. In some cases, new taxes are exactly what is needed. He discovered that, and ended up breaking his promise and his losing re-election bid. He was right to raise taxes.

That’s the case in New Mexico right now; the state needs to raise taxes. Specifically, alcohol excise taxes.

New Mexicans are dying because they drink too much.

Not just because of drunken driving accidents, which are bad enough, but because of the many complications that accompany alcohol abuse. A recent study from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showed that New Mexico leads the nation in years of life lost because of excess drinking. First in drinking and dying. What a distinction.

Compared to the rest of the country, New Mexicans lost 1,570 years of life annually, per 100,000 of population, between 2006 and 2010. The national average was 831.6.

Further, the study found that New Mexico had more deaths per capita attributable to alcohol — 51.2 per 100,000 population — than the rest of the nation. That’s compared to a national average of 27.9.

Those deaths mean years of potential squandered. This is human cost, tragedy for families and for the state as a whole, a loss of people whose contributions can no longer make New Mexico a better place to live. People are dying decades before their time. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Death from excessive alcohol consumption is the thirdleading preventable cause of death in the country — with preventable being the key.

It’s a crisis — one that can be alleviated by implementing policies that work. Those include increasing excise taxes on alcohol, enforcing laws against serving minors and overserving drunk customers and regulating the density of businesses that sell alcohol. Combined, the efforts provide a strategy to start attacking the status quo. We have said before that more New Mexico counties, as was done in McKinley County, should be given the right to impose a local-option liquor tax. That would put the money to fight this scourge at the local level, where it can do the most good. (According to the Alcohol Justice industry watchdog group, New Mexico’s beer excise tax was last changed in 1993. At 41 cents a gallon, inflation has cost it 37 percent of its value. Had the tax kept up, it would be 65 cents a gallon today.)

Gov. Susana Martinez’s people are making a few tentative steps in the right direction. Yes, physicians should talk to patients about their use of alcohol during office visits.

Yes, the state should examine areas where alcohol retailers are too densely concentrated and figure out a way to reduce the number of sellers. But such minimal steps are not nearly enough, given the scope of the crisis.

Increase alcohol excise taxes — drinking is a luxury, not a necessity. The funds from additional liquor taxes can be used on public health outreach and increasing access to care. Tribes that sell alcohol on reservation land also should raise taxes and use the money to fund treatments.

Evidence shows that increasing the liquor excise tax works, especially in reducing underage drinking.

A promise not to increase taxes should not be a onesize-fits-all guarantee, remaining constant no matter the facts at play. Increasing the excise taxes on alcohol will give New Mexico the money to fight alcohol abuse. Given the state of the crisis, Gov. Martinez needs to change her pledge from “no new taxes” to “no unnecessary taxes.”

The past 100 years From the Santa Fe New Mexican: July 9, 1914: Pueblo, Colo. — Seventy-five years of age, and said to be the oldest pioneer ever incarcerated in the Pueblo County jail, Mrs. Andrew Martinez, of Ignacio, Colo., was locked up here today to serve a sentence of 106 days for selling liquor to Indians. The woman was brought before Judge Lewis in the United States District Court here several weeks ago and after being convicted and sentenced on a charge of selling whiskey, was freed because of her advanced age.

July 9, 1964: Santa Fe City councilmens found themselves powerless after hearing a request for a temporary waiver to use a vacant lot on Manhattan Street as a parking lot. Since the land is owned by the state, the city has no control over its use.

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Jesse Ventura brought his defamation lawsuit before homestate jurors Tuesday in a bid to punish the estate of late American Sniper author Chris Kyle, who bragged that he decked the former Minnesota governor a decade ago.

Ventura, a former Navy SEAL and wrestler who was Minnesota governor from 1999 to 2003, alleges Kyle defamed him in his best-selling book. Ventura pursued the claim even after Kyle was killed last year at a Texas gun range, saying it was important to clear his name.

The Associated Press

By Adam Taylor The Washington Post

WASHINGTON arlier this year, after the Nigerian Islamist militia Boko Harem kidnapped scores of Nigerian schoolgirls, Western Internet users took to the Internet to show their outrage. And while #BringBackOurGirls had begun as a Nigerian phenomenon, it was hard not to feel a little strange as it spread across North America and the United States. What was the purpose of this Western attention to Africa — and was it actually helping?

As a lot of people have noted, the attention suddenly heaped upon Nigeria’s girls faded as suddenly as it began.

It’s a depressingly familiar scenario, even down to the use of a hashtag: Just a couple of years earlier, #Kony2012, a hugely popular campaign designed to indirectly help catch Ugandan militia leader Joseph Kony, had collapsed into criticisms and rebukes.

For director Cassandra Herman and co-producer Kathryn Mathers, these two cases aren’t unique but are part of a broader issue with how Western Europe and America treat Africa. It ranges from the roundly criticized portrayal of South Africans in the latest Adam Sandler film, Blended, to the well-intentioned but flawed charity projects in subSaharan Africa that thousands of American college students work upon every year. The pair’s new documentary, Framed, is an attempt to answer why Westerners are so obsessed with “saving” Africa, and why this obsession so often goes awry.

The seeds for Framed were planted when Mathers, an anthropologist, accompanied Herman’s UC Berkeley journalism school class on an international reporting trip to her home, South Africa.

Herman’s story went on to become an integral part of Mather’s book on how Ameri-

cans view Africa, Travel, Humanitarianism and Becoming American in Africa.

Mathers had been researching the attitudes of Americans to Africa for over 10 years. She says that “while specific ways of engaging and particular vocabularies have changed,” she was consistently amazed at how Africa was so central to the concept of charity for young Americans. “It has been for a long time the space that young Americans are most likely to see as needing them to save,” Mathers said.

While many developing countries face similar perceptions, Mathers argues that African countries in particular often find their problems oversimplified or misinterpreted. “The images circulating of Africa set it up as a place of lack, not just of technologies and structures but of responsible adults, competent bureaucrats, even caring people,” she says. “These images have been around for centuries.”

Of course, criticism of Western views of Africa aren’t rare these days. Following the #Kony2012 debacle, there was a lot of soul-searching about the virtues of Western attention on African problems, while the website Africa Is A Country has been criticizing and lampooning attitudes toward Africa for years now.

African critics like Kenyanauthor Binyavanga Wainaina, featured in the film, are in no short supply either, and the recent Bill Easterly book The Tyranny of Experts took a broader look at how global institutions fail the countries they try to help.

Not all of these critics would argue that attention in itself is the problem.

“I believe that good intentions should be directed to finding out who and what organizations are trying to solve the problems you want to solve, and finding ways to directly support those people,” Mathers said. “As Zine Magubane, a South Africanborn professor at Boston College, says in the film, there are always people in those communities trying to solve their own problems.”

clinics around the country have led to a national outcry. Overall, audit results show tens of thousands of veterans are still waiting as long as three months for medical appointments.

Officials with the VA center in Albuquerque have acknowledged that the system in New Mexico has problems with waiting times.

Many veterans on the waiting list were seeking appointments related to hearing concerns. The VA is recruiting two new audiologists and support staff to help chip away at the backlog, Brown said. The facility’s current

audiologist is working overtime, and another has been hired to work Saturdays to address the wait time.

The New Mexico VA is also in the process of awarding a contract for two new hearing booths and allowing for appointments in local communities, depending on demand. Still, Brown said, some communities also are dealing with a backlog when it comes to audiology services.

To keep reducing the wait time for veterans, Brown said, officials are evaluating whether to hold additional open clinics on Saturdays.

Plaza traffic plan delayed a week Fiscal year change, buying of planters to block road factors in wait

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

M

ayor Javier Gonzales’ plan to close more streets around the Santa Fe Plaza to vehicular traffic has stalled again, at least until next week.

The street closures were supposed to go into effect within a week of the City Council’s approval.

But the council approved the plan June 25, just as the city was moving from one fiscal year to the next, delaying the purchase of flowers and flower planters that eventually will be used to block traffic on the Lincoln Avenue and Old Santa Fe Trail sides of the historic square.

“The city is subject to its own bureaucracy as well,” said Isaac “Ike” Pino, director of the Public Works Department, which oversees city parks.

Pino said approved expenditures are on “budget hold” for about two weeks while the city closes one fiscal year and moves to the next.

Despite the delay, the mayor’s traffic-blocking plan will be executed soon. “We had some hurdles to clear internally to make the purchases and just decided to work with what we have,” Pino said.

Until the new planters arrive, Pino said, the city plans to use existing planters as barriers beginning Monday. The city picked Monday because of planned weekend activities, including a “cruise night,” Pino said.

Please see HOTEL, Page B-3

It’s the second time that the mayor’s trafficblocking plan — his first piece of legislation since he was elected in March — hit a snag.

When Gonzales introduced the proposal, part of a bigger effort to generate more activity on the Plaza, some merchants balked. The mayor put it on pause for several weeks after some city councilors said the idea needed more work.

The mayor’s revised plan, unanimously approved by the City Council, calls for only San Francisco Street to remain open through the Plaza. The section of Palace Avenue in front the Palace of the Governors has been closed for years.

Santa Fe police said Tuesday that a woman charged in connection with a May armed robbery at a Cerrillos Road motel told investigators she needed the money to buy beer.

Amanda Ahumada, 26, who was being held in the Torrance County jail as of Tuesday on an alleged parole violation from a DWI case, is accused of threatening a Holiday Inn Express desk clerk on the night of May Amanda 18, according to a Ahumada police department news release.

Police said Ahumada insinuated she had a weapon when she told the motel employee, “I’m not afraid to blast you” and demanded money. The news release said police reviewed surveillance video, which showed a female suspect get out of a white car, threaten the motel employee and then dash away with an undisclosed amount of money.

Police said Ahumada admitted to the crime when detectives questioned her in the Torrance County jail Monday after receiving tips.

The surveillance video shows the woman with two men, whom investigators haven’t yet identified, the news release said. One of the men is described as a bald, in his late 20s and wearing a black muscle shirt.

The three suspects all fled in a white, four-door sedan, possibly a Suzuki Forenza, with aftermarket aluminum wheel rims, police said.

The money will be used to buy diapers, hand sanitizer, Pedialyte and shoes.

Also on Tuesday, President Barack Obama requested nearly $4 billion in emergency funding from Congress to deal with the surge of children crossing the country’s southern border.

The New York Times reported that the funds would go for Border Patrols agents and new detention facilities.

Additionally, half the money would help provide care for immigrant children. Gannon said the best way to participate in the effort is to contribute funding to Catholic Charities, since other types of donations require transportation down to Las Cruces or El Paso.

Woman claims sex assault at mental hospital Suit filed against state, worker who was killed

By Phaedra Haywood The New Mexican

The attorney for a schizophrenic woman who spent about two months at the state mental hospital in Las Vegas, N.M., is suing the hospital and the state, alleging the woman was neglected at the facility and was sexually assaulted by a former employee, who has since been shot to death.

The complaint, filed in state District Court last week, says the woman suffered sexual assault, indecent exposure, personal injury, pain and suffering, mental anguish and humiliation while a resident of the New Mexico Behavioral Health Institute in summer 2012.

The suit names former hospital employee Nick P. Jaramillo of Las Vegas as a defendant in the case, but according to a Las Vegas Optic story, Jaramillo allegedly was shot to death by his girlfriend in April 2013, a day after his employment ended at the Behavioral Health Institute.

The story said the shooting came during a domestic dispute that followed a weeklong drinking binge.

Assault: Institute accused of poor care Continued from Page B-1 The woman accused of shooting Jaramillo is scheduled to go to trial on a second-degree murder charge in September.

The complaint, which seeks to collect unspecified damages and legal costs, accuses the Behavioral Health Institute of improper staffing levels and failing to provide sufficient care for the woman and other patients, and of failing to report an alleged incident of abuse and neglect to the authorities and to the woman’s family.

It also accuses the hospital of failing to maintain “accurate, truthful records” on the

patient. “As a result of these incidents,” the complaint says, the alleged victim “required medical attention and physiological counseling and her overall mental health deteriorated.”

The Albuquerque law firm representing the woman did not return a call seeking comment Tuesday.

Department of Health spokesman Kenny Vigil said the department could not comment on pending litigation.

PAC money to be used in state races

By Barry Massey

The Associated Press

Labor unions have contributed $180,000 to a Democraticleaning political committee that can raise and spend unlimited amounts of money to influence legislative and other state races in New Mexico.

The political action committee Patriot Majority New Mexico received $100,000 from an American Federation of Teachers’ political committee last month and $80,000 from a committee of the American

Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees in late May, according to the latest campaign finance reports.

The PAC was a top spender in New Mexico’s fiercely contested legislative races two years, ago when Democrats retained majorities in the House and Senate.

Democrats have long controlled the Legislature, but the GOP hopes to pick up enough seats in this year’s elections to gain a majority in the 70-member House for the first time in 60 years. Republicans could receive a boost from having GOP Gov. Susana Martinez running for re-election this year in much the same way Democrats

benefited in 2012 from having President Barack Obama at the top of the ballot to draw voters to the polls.

Patriot Majority is a superPAC that’s free from campaign contribution limits because it independently advocates the election or defeat of candidates.

Its campaign work cannot be coordinated with candidates.

Typically, PACs run advertisements and send out mailings for or against candidates.

The group spent about $61,000 last month for research by a Denver-based firm and nearly $19,000 for “strategic services” by a consulting firm formed by David Contarino, who was former Gov. Bill Rich-

ardson’s chief of staff and top political adviser. Contarino lives in Louisville, Ky. Patriot Majority spent almost $1.4 million on New Mexico races in 2012, while a political committee with ties to the governor dumped $2.4 million into legislative campaigns.

Craig Varoga, a Washington, D.C.-based Democratic strategist who runs Patriot Majority, said in an email statement Tuesday that the group had an “independent record of fighting to protect people against Republican legislators and fat cats who sell out the state’s children, working families and natural resources.”

The Galisteo Community Association, however, took issue with the expedited approval process, contending the entire property should have been included in the plan, rather than just the tract proposed for development.

The association asserted that if the board would have included the entire property “when counting parcels,” the proposed subdivision would

have exceeded the 24 parcels that allow for the summary review process.

The county and the developer, however, maintained that the developer “did not have definite future plans to sell or lease the remainder property,” an assertion that the judge questioned in her ruling.

“The Board contends that the developer does not intend to sell the retained land, but its own argument and the record itself point to harbingers,” the ruling states. “The history of the developer’s applications also indicates a larger scheme.”

Christus wants in health exchange A subsidiary of Christus Health, the Texas-based nonprofit parent company of Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center in Santa Fe, has applied to become the fifth health insurance company offering plans on the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange, a company spokeswoman said Tuesday.

Christus Health Plan first must become a licensed insurer in the state. Aaron Ezekiel, head of Affordable Care Act implementation for the state superintendent of insurance, said the superintendent’s office is reviewing the application.

Open enrollment for the exchange begins Nov. 15 under the federal health care law, said Dr. J.R. Damron, chairman of the New Mexico Health Insurance Exchange board.

He and Ezekiel, who also serves on the board, said they would welcome another insurer to join the exchange.

Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Mexico, New Mexico Health Connections, Molina Healthcare of New Mexico and Presbyterian Health Plan currently sell plans on the exchange.

“With competition, you usually get lower prices and better care,” Damron said.

Spokeswoman for city resigns Jodi McGinnis Porter, who has served as the Santa Fe city government spokeswoman since February 2013, has resigned.

McGinnis Porter, who earned $75,000 annually, said Tuesday that she accepted a job in the private sector, but she declined to disclose her new employer.

“My new position hasn’t been announced,” she said.

McGinnis Porter, who joined the city under the administration of former Mayor David Coss, said she and Mayor Javier Gonzales worked well

The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The head of the California Highway Patrol said he was shocked and the agency’s reputation is hurt by a video showing an officer repeatedly punching a woman he pinned on the side of a Los Angeles freeway.

CHP Commissioner Joe Farrow vowed to complete a comprehensive investigation in weeks instead of the usual months.

The CHP said the woman was walking on Interstate 10 west of downtown Los Angeles, endangering herself and people in traffic, and the officer was trying to restrain her. The woman had begun walking off the freeway but returned when the confrontation occurred.

The now-viral video shot by a passing freeway driver shows Marlene Pinnock, 51, being repeatedly punched as she’s straddled by the officer on the shoulder of the freeway.

“This is one of the most significant events of my 34-year career that I’ve ever dealt with,” Farrow said. “We’ve never seen this before.”

together and that she wasn’t looking for another job.

“This was an opportunity that came directly to me,” she said.

Gonzales said he was grateful for McGinnis Porter’s service.

“She was an extraordinary asset to the city,” he said. “Her shoes will be hard to fill.”

McGinnis Porter, whose official title was public information/multimedia administrator, called her position at the city a “dream job.” “I grew up in Santa Fe,” she said. “I was promoting my hometown, and I loved that.”

Woman denies kidnapping kids ALBUQUERQUE — A woman accused of kidnapping her children nearly two decades ago is back in New Mexico after being extradited from Great Britain.

Eileen Clark, 57, entered a not-guilty plea in federal court in Albuquerque on Monday, KRQE-TV reported.

She had vanished with her children in 1995 from their Placitas home after her husband

said he wanted a separation or divorce. The children were ages 7, 5 and 2 at the time.

A court battle resulting in her extradition began after authorities learned in 2008 she was in London. That occurred when one of the children told a doctor that he’d seen his own photo on a missing persons website.

Migrant security help vowed ARTESIA — Federal authorities are promising a southeastern New Mexico county that immigration officials will pay for additional security for the temporary detention center.

The Carlsbad Current-Argus reported that Eddy County Manager Rick Rudometkin said last week that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement had asked the county to provide backup security.

But Rudometkin said the county will have to go through a contractor to hire close to 90 security personnel.

Federal officials are using Artesia’s Federal Law Enforcement Training Center as a

detention center for 700 Central American women and children.

New movie to be filmed in N.M. A movie written and produced by New Mexicans is about to begin filming in and around Albuquerque.

The New Mexico Film Office Monday announced that the feature Burning Bodhi will be produced in mid-July through the beginning of August.

The movie was written by University of New Mexico screenwriting professor Matthew McDuffie. He will also direct the film, which is being produced by Albuquerque resident Marshall Bear.

McDuffie says the film is about “your first dead friend.”

He says it’s about “grief and laughter and celebrating life, about growing up; whatever that means.”

The cast includes The Big Bang Theory’s Kaley Cuoco and Oscar nominee Virginia Madsen.

Staff and wire reports

Farrow spoke at a news conference Tuesday after a two-hour meeting with community and civil rights leaders, the second involving CHP officials since the July 1 incident occurred.

“I heard them loud and clear,” he said. “We put the issue right on the table in front of us. We’re dealing with it. We’re not going to run and hide.”

Farrow said state law prevents him from revealing the officer’s name. The officer has been with the department for a year and a half and has been assigned to desk duty pending the investigation’s completion.

Sgt. Denise Joslin said officials are working in conjunction with the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office on the investigation. Members of the Los Angeles Police Department were also present at Tuesday’s meeting and offered their support, she said.

The investigation will primarily focus on the video itself, Farrow said.

“The whole issue … comes down to what happened when the encounter got into a physical altercation,” Farrow said.

“What was the cause for (the

officer) to use force? And that’s where we are right now.”

No other video was taken.

The in-car video didn’t capture the incident, which took place behind the highway patrol vehicle, Farrow said.

Rev. K.W. Tulloss, who heads the Los Angeles chapter of the National Action Network, said

he appreciated Farrow and other top CHP officials meeting with community activists but said they wouldn’t back down from pushing for more answers and an outside investigation.

“He’s a CHP officer not an MMA fighter. It was truly excessive, it was visible, and it was just devastating,” Tulloss said. “There’s no excuse. CHP officers are trained law enforcement officers. They should know how to deal with [all types of] individuals.”

The department implemented a new “crisis intervention” training program this year to help officers deal with mentally disabled individuals, Farrow said.

Pinnock remains in the hospital under a psychiatric hold.

Her family found her covered in bruises, ice packs and taking pain medication.

“I’m just so overwhelmed,” daughter Maisha Allums told reporters Tuesday. “I can’t believe a CHP officer that was supposed to protect my mom and help my mom beat her like a — I can’t even say like a dog because if it was a dog getting beat like that he would have been in jail.”

ALBUQUERQUE — In the latest in a series of high-profile New Mexico lawsuits over solitary confinement, a Tennessee man who suffers from bipolar disorder claims he was denied his medication and left untreated in a filthy cell.

The lawsuit filed recently in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque says Michael Faziani, 57, was thrown in a Sierra County solitary confinement jail cell for days after getting arrested on misdemeanor charges for a minor accident in a McDonald’s parking pot.

Guards ignored his request for a shower, and his cell got so squalid another inmate had to clean it, according to court papers filed last month.

“Due to the toxic effects of solitary confinement [Faziani] lost the ability to care of his own hygiene,” the lawsuit said.

Documents also said the Columbia, Tenn., man lost 22 pounds in 18 days and often begged for help.

He was also denied medication for his chronic back pain, court papers said. Sierra County officials did not return emails from The Associated Press.

Faziani is seeking an unspecified amount for punitive and compensatory damages.

Matthew Coyte, Faziani’s lawyer and an Albuquerque attorney, said the state’s county jails continue to be where most egregious solitary confinement cases are found.

“The practice of placing someone in solitary is done so professionally in the prisons they got it down to a science or an art,” said Coyte. “In a jail, [officials] do it with such amateurish ways that they run into trouble much easier in getting sued.”

For example, Doña Ana County last year reached a $15.5 million settlement in a case of a man who was held in solitary for two years without a trial and was so neglected he took out his own tooth.

Another county, Los Lunas, recently reached a $1.6 million settlement with a female inmate who said she was denied treatment for her bipolar disorder while in and out of a New Mexico jail’s solitary confinement unit for two years.

A sock rotted into an open wound on her foot and she was forced to sleep in a shower, the lawsuit said.

Jails also don’t provide enough mental health care, and instead often opt to send troubled inmates to isolation, Coyte said.

space. The investigative agency, the Civil Aeronautics Board, determined simply that the pilots did not see one another.

The agency speculated that the pilots were treating passengers to views of the Grand Canyon while flying through scattered cloud buildup.

Meanwhile, pressure mounted on Congress to move faster to make air travel safer.

In 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower signed the Airways Modernization Act, and airliners were required to have flight

data recorders. What’s now known as the FAA began operating late that year.

The crash sites near the confluence of the Colorado and Little Colorado rivers now are closed off to the public and being preserved for their place in history.

“The Park Service has to manage those sites as the resting place for those 128 souls,” Grand Canyon National Park archaeologist Ian Hough said.

“In many different ways, those people are still there.”

Pistorius trial: The defense rests its case. Page B-8

Sterling spars with wife’s lawyer at trial

By Billy Witz

The New York Times

LOS ANGELES — A feisty, combative and occasionally charming Donald Sterling took the witness stand Tuesday in a trial that will determine whether he can prevent his estranged wife from selling the Los Angeles Clippers, the basketball team he has owned for more than 30 years.

Sterling testified in Superior Court

for nearly an hour under examination by his wife’s lawyer, Bert Fields. They provided captivating theater: a pair of octogenarians, one of whom struggled to hear (Sterling) Donald and one of whom Sterling struggled to speak (Fields), his raspy voice was sometimes just above a whisper.

Sterling frequently asked Fields to speak louder and repeat a question, and even more often chided him over his line of questioning. When Fields asked if Sterling would have allowed the two doctors who declared him incapacitated to examine him if he knew why they were there, Sterling

barked: “Do you think any first-year law student would allow an adversary to examine you?”

Saying the matter was privileged, Judge Michael Levanas cut off an exchange between Fields and Sterling over whether settlement talks between the parties had taken place, which Sterling had asserted and Fields quickly denied. Fields offered to waive his privilege and Sterling

WORLD CUP GERMANY 7, BRAZIL 1

Brazil demolished Germany routs host country in record rout, heads to final

By Chris Lehourites The Associated Press

BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil ith Neymar out injured, just about everyone in Brazil knew it would be tough against Germany.

Nobody ever expected this.

The Germans tore apart Brazil’s porous defense time and time again Tuesday, routing the hosts 7-1 in the World Cup semifinals, the largest margin of defeat at this stage in the history of the tournament.

“We wanted to make the people happy … unfortunately we couldn’t,” said Brazil defender David Luiz, who had scored in each of the last two matches. “We apologize to all Brazilians.”

The astounding scoreline is sure to overshadow Miroslav Klose’s record-setting 16th career World Cup goal. The strike pushed Klose past Brazil great Ronaldo, who was at the Mineirao Stadium on Tuesday as the Germans advanced to their eighth World Cup final.

Germany will face either Argentina or the Netherlands on Sunday at the Maracana Stadium in Rio de Janeiro with a chance to win for the fourth time.

Brazil was playing without Neymar, the team’s key player and the poster boy for the World Cup. He scored four goals in the group stage, but Brazil’s attack seemed to get weaker and weaker as the tournament progressed. The Barcelona striker was ruled out of the tournament with a broken vertebra after getting kneed in the back in the quarterfinal win over Colombia, weakening the sputtering attack even more.

With Neymar sidelined and captain Thiago Silva suspended, the collective hopes of a nation remained high even if expectations were lowered.

The atmosphere at the start of the match was spine-tingling, but the euphoria of the yellow-shirted thousands soon turned to tears as the Germans scored five goals in the first 30 minutes — four of them in a seven-minute span.

“It was very important to stay calm, cool and courageous in facing Brazilian passion,” Germany coach Joachim Loew said.

The loss matched Brazil’s mostlopsided defeat ever, and it’s the first

PREP BOYS BASKETBALL

SFIS head coach may have taken Calif. job

By James Barron The New Mexican

Zack Cole’s status is a mystery.

Is he still the head boys basketball coach at Santa Fe Indian School? Or has he moved to California?

According an email from SFIS athletic director Matt Martinez, he still is.

“Yes it’s a rumor, [sic] and a rumor at best,” Martinez said. “If we have any further info for you we will contact you.”

However, a story from the Ramona (Calif.) Sentinel reported Monday that Cole had been hired as head boys basketball coach at Ramona High School. Attempts to reach Cole proved unsuccessful, as his cellphone number registered only a busy signal.

The story quotes Cole as saying, “I like to coach an up tempo offense and push the ball in transition. I like to coach a pressure defense. I believe in letting players be players.”

It also references his wife, Adrienne, and their two children coming to town, which is northeast of San Diego. Martinez did not respond to a followup telephone message regarding the story.

Cole had been at SFIS the past two seasons, and he guided the Braves to an 8-20 mark and a spot in the Class AAA State Tournament, where they lost to Silver in the opening round.

In two seasons, he was 14-41 overall, and SFIS did not win a game in the toughest district in AAA.

On July 9, 2006, Zinedine Zidane lost his cool as Italy beat France to win the final in Berlin.

Zidane, who led France to the title in 1998, was persuaded to come out of international retirement to lead his country in the World Cup in Germany.

After a slow start to the tournament, France beat Spain, Brazil and Portugal to make the final. Zidane gave France the lead with a noncha-

oncussions are an ugly reality of football, but people are trying to eliminate them from the game.

In an attempt to limit concussions in high school football, the National Federation of State High School Associations, the governing body that writes the rules for most sports and activities in the U.S., suggested that states limit the amount of full contact football players go through in a given week.

The New Mexico ActiviEdmundo ties Association Carrillo heeded the recCommentary ommendation, and board members agreed to the following practice regulations on June 5: u For the first two days of practice, players should be in shorts and helmets. Players can be in “shells” — helmets and shoulder pads — for days three and four. Full contact and live-action drills are not allowed when players are in shells. Full pads are allowed on days five and six, but full contact is limited to 30 minutes for each player. u For weeks 2 and 3, players are restricted to no more than 120 minutes of full contact per week.

lant penalty in the seventh minute.

However, defender Marco Materazzi soon headed Italy level.

The score remained tied deep into extra time when the two goalscorers were at the center of one of the most shocking episodes in World Cup history.

Cameras missed the incident at first, suddenly showing Materazzi lying on the ground. Replays showed that Zidane had raced toward the defender and felled him with his head — his last act as a professional footballer.

Tour de France champion Chris Froome hurts wrist

By Jamey Keaten

The Associated Press

LILLE, France — Back on the race’s home turf after three days in England, the Tour de France faces a first possible shakeout Wednesday over the bone-rattling cobblestones in northern France.

Many riders dreaded the forecast for rain, meaning the stones will be slick.

Defending champion Chris Froome scuffed his left knee and elbow and injured his wrist Tuesday during Stage 4, a crash that couldn’t have come at a worse time for him.

“Took quite a tumble today but I’ll definitely be starting tomorrow with no serious damage,” Froome said on Twitter: “It’ll be a tough one for everyone on the cobbles!”

Astana team leader Vincenzo Nibali of Italy kept the yellow jersey in what he called a “crazy race” — a 101-mile ride along the Belgian border. Froome and two-time champ Alberto Contador are among 20 riders trailing Nibali by two seconds.

Kittel makes it three: Marcel Kittel got his third stage victory in this Tour and the seventh of his Tour career on Tuesday. Unlike his wins in Stages 1 and 3, when he made victory look easy, Kittel won by a half-wheel length at the end of the ride from Le Touquet-Paris Plage to Lille Metropole.

Kittel, of the Giant-Shimano team, didn’t celebrate this time, but panted.

The gesture at the line came from runner-up Alexander Kristoff of Norway, who swatted the air in frustration after being beaten by the barreling

German. French rider Arnaud Demare was third.

After a difficult day of crosswinds, pockets of rain-smattered roads, and jumpy nerves in the peloton, Kittel said: “It’s never easy … [I was] lucky just enough at the finish line.”

The champ crashes: Minutes into the stage, Team Sky leader Froome went tumbling after one rider bumped another — like a succession of dominoes — who crossed the Briton’s front wheel. He skinned his left knee, left elbow and hurt his left wrist, but got back on his bike. Clinging to the race doctor’s car, he got bandaged and rejoined the pack. Then a teammate dropped back to get a splint at Sky’s car, and pedaled it up to the ailing Froome.

Race doctor Florence Pommerie

told French TV his injuries amounted to “essentially a few scratches.”

Nibali, said his team informed him through his earpiece about Froome’s mishap, and went back to see whether he was OK. Froome responded, “more or less,” according to the Italian. The Sky leader went straight into the team bus and didn’t speak to reporters after the stage.

Dave Brailsford, the Sky team boss, said Froome described feeling good at the end. Froome was undergoing X-rays after the stage, but the team didn’t immediately comment on the results.

Lose energy again?: In the sixth stage of the Criterium du Dauphine race last month, Froome took a spill during a descent and banged up a hip, shoulder and elbow. The next day, he lost the race’s yellow jersey to Conta-

dor — citing stiffness in his thighs and a loss of energy from the crash.

An aching wrist could mean pain ahead for Froome. The cobbles on Wednesday’s 97 miles from Ypres, Belgium, to Arenberg Port du Hainaut, could make it difficult for him to keep his hands on the handlebars.

It includes stretches of bumpy road familiar to riders of the famed ParisRoubaix one-day classic.

“It’s going to be a crazy stage for everyone tomorrow,” said Philippe Mauduit, a sports director for Contador’s Tinkoff-Saxo Bank team. “We’ll do whatever we can to stay near the front to avoid getting involved in crashes or held up by any pileups but that’s what everybody wants and therefore the pace will be extremely high.”

Tigers slug their way past Dodgers The Associated Press

DETROIT — Justin Verlander settled down after a terrible first inning, and the Detroit Tigers rallied in emphatic fashion for a 14-5 victory over Tigers 14 the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night.

Dodgers 5 Verlander (8-7) allowed five runs in the first, but the Dodgers managed only one more hit off the Detroit right-hander, who has had his share of struggles this season. The Tigers tied it with five runs in the second, then added two in the third and four in the fourth to pull away.

Miguel Cabrera was one of five Detroit players with three hits.

Verlander allowed five runs and five hits in six innings. He struck out four and walked two.

AMERICAN LEAGUE

Bay beat Kansas City.

The Rays opened the sixth with three consecutive hits, including a two-run single

by Longoria off Jason Vargas (8-4), to take a 2-1 lead. Vargas, who allowed two runs and six hits in 5⅔ innings, was coming off seven innings in the Royals’ 4-0 win Wednesday against Minnesota.

Hellickson, coming back after arthroscopic surgery on his right elbow in January, gave up one run and six hits.

ASTROS 8, RANGERS 3 In Arlington, Texas, Chris Carter led off two innings with home runs, George Springer had one inning-starting long ball and Houston beat the Astros.

Jose Altuve had two hits, two stolen bases and a sacrifice fly. The All-Star second baseman matched Houston’s franchise record with 28 consecutive stolen bases without being caught while pushing his AL-leading total to 41. He leads the American League with 126 hits and a .341 batting average.

Houston went ahead to stay with two runs in the first inning off Phil Irwin (0-1) who was making his Rangers debut.

INDIANS 5, YANKEES 3 In Cleveland, Michael Brantley homered and had three RBIs, Nick Swisher hit a go-ahead two-run shot and the Indians stopped rookie sensation Masahiro Tanaka’s bid to become the major league’s first 13-game winner.

Brantley hit a leadoff homer in the seventh. The first-time All-Star also had RBI doubles in the first and fifth, raising his average to .328.

Tanaka (12-4) allowed season worsts of five runs and 10 hits in 6⅔ innings. The right-hander, who lost for the third time in four starts, took a 3-2 lead into the sixth before Swisher, a former Yankee, hit a tworun homer that put Cleveland on top.

TWINS 2, MARINERS 0 In Seattle, Minnesota’s Phil Hughes pitched into the eighth inning, Sam Fuld barely cleared the wall with his second home run of the season and the Twins beat the Mariners.

Hughes rebounded from being knocked around in his previous two starts to shut down the Mariners. Hughes (9-5) gave up eight hits in 7 1-3 innings, struck out eight and didn’t walk a batter in silencing Seattle’s stagnant offense.

WHITE SOX 8, RED SOX 3 In Boston, Conor Gillaspie hit a tie-breaking, two-run homer in the sixth inning for his third hit of the game, and Chicago beat the struggling Red Sox. Boston lost for the seventh time in eight games as the defending World Series champions remained in last place in the AL East.

The White Sox are 5-1 in their past six games. John Danks (8-6) started with four shutout innings on Tuesday night after Hector Noesi beat Seattle 1-0 on Sunday and Scott Carroll won 4-0 on Monday night when Boston had just two hits.

CARDINALS 5, PIRATES 4 In St. Louis, rookie Kolten Wong gave the Cardinals their second straight gamewinning ninth-inning home run, connecting off Ernesto Frieri with two outs for a victory over Pittsburgh.

Frieri (1-1) got two routine outs before Wong, batting eighth, hit his third homer on a full count.

The drive over the right-field wall, which was estimated at 420 feet, was the first game-winning homer of Wong’s career and it came a night after Matt Adams hit his first winner off Justin Wilson in a 2-0 victory.

RAYS 4, ROYALS 3 In St. Petersburg, Fla., Evan Longoria drove in two runs, Jeremy Hellickson went 4⅓ innings in his season debut, and Tampa

METS 8, BRAVES 3 In New York, rookie Jacob deGrom struck out 11 in seven shutout innings and also delivered a table-setting hit from the No.

NATIONAL LEAGUE

8 spot in the batting order, and the Mets tagged All-Star Julio Teheran and Atlanta.

Curtis Granderson kept up his resurgence with a leadoff home run and Lucas Duda doubled twice, singled and drew two walks.

Daniel Murphy also doubled twice and third baseman David Wright added two of New York’s 18 hits and made a nifty catch.

Sterling: Says team worth more than $2B Continued from Page B-5 challenged him to do so, saying, “Be a man, for God’s sakes, be a man.”

Sterling also said that the Clippers were worth more than the record $2 billion that the former Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer has agreed to pay for the franchise. Sterling maintained that any NBA team in Los Angeles or New York was worth between $2.5 billion and $5 billion because of a thirst for content by television companies. Sterling cited the Lakers’ television deal with Time Warner, which he said was worth $3 billion.

“Do you think Microsoft is foolish and think they don’t

figure out where they’re going to get the money back?” Sterling said. “There’s no ego here, there’s tremendous opportunity here.”

Sterling, who sued the NBA after Commissioner Adam Silver barred him for life and fined him $2.5 million for making racist remarks in a conversation that was recorded by a then-girlfriend, V. Stiviano, also said that he would win $9 billion in his lawsuit against the league.

Fields tried to pin down Sterling on comments his representatives had made in recent months, only to have Sterling say he did not remember them.

Sterling also reminded Fields that the only person who

spoke for Sterling was himself.

Near the end of his testimony, Sterling said to Fields, who had boasted that he had made witnesses break down on the stand, “I thought you were going to make me cry.”

Sterling entered the courtroom shortly before 2:30 p.m., accompanied by a publicist.

Sterling, wearing sunglasses, walked casually to the front row, where he took the first seat on the aisle, across from where his estranged wife, Shelly, sat. He propped the sunglasses on his forehead and listened to the testimony of Dr. James Spar, who had made a diagnosis that Sterling had a cognitive impairment that was consistent with the early onset

of Alzheimer’s disease.

When Spar was finished on the stand, Levanas called for a recess. As the court emptied, Shelly Sterling made her way to Donald Sterling, who held her hand and pulled her toward him. She whispered a few words in his ear and wiped away a tear as she left the courtroom.

Donald Sterling stayed in his seat during the recess.

He made small talk with his lawyers and publicists, and laughed when a court sketch artist showed him a drawing of Sterling with his wife in the background. “My wife is prettier than that,” Sterling told him with a smile.

Reality: Practices not dramatically altered Continued from Page B-5 contact is also limited to 30 minutes per player per day. u For the remainder of the season, full contact is allowed for no more than 90 minutes per player per week, with a limit of 30 minutes per day for each player.

The NMAA then sent these regulations to its member schools, who voted in favor of them at the end of June, meaning they will be implemented starting this fall.

While these new rules were made with good intentions, it doesn’t look like anything is going to change. Taos head football coach Flavio Lopez said he likes to keep his practices light on the hitting in order to keep players fresh for game days.

“It doesn’t bother us one bit,” Lopez said.

“We’ve been doing that since the get-go.

We like to have kids that are able to play on Friday night.”

Santa Fe High head coach Ray Holladay said the new regulations aren’t going to change things at his practices either.

“I don’t know of any program that it’s going to effect,” Holladay said. “You can’t beat your kids up during the week and expect them to be able to play on Friday.”

While Lopez sees that these regulations were implemented to prevent concussions, he still believes they are inevitable. He feels the only way to prevent concussions is to make sure tackling is done right.

“Concussions are still going to happen,”

he said. “If you want a contact sport, go do cheerleading. Football is a collision sport.

Someone could die if it’s done wrong.”

Lopez has a point. As long as strong people are colliding with each other, concussions are going to be part of the game.

Even a clean tackle can result in the ball carrier hitting the back of their head on the turf or another player.

The fact that local coaches said these rule changes will do nothing to change their practices truly illustrates how nothing can be done to eliminate concussions in football. Until we find the magic cure, we might just have to accept that they are an ugly reality of an otherwise brilliant game.

Coach: SFIS in toughest district in AAA Continued from Page B-5 The Braves’ District 5AAA foes include two-time defending champion Albuquerque Hope Christian, two-time AAA runner-up St. Michael’s and Albuquerque Sandia Preparatory, which had advanced to at least the semifinals for six straight years before losing in the first round in March.

Prior to Cole’s hire, the program suffered

through an 0-27 season in 2011-12 and had three head coaches in nine months.

He had spent a few seasons as an assistant coach at Northern New Mexico College, and was an assistant at Capital from 2003-09.

McCurdy position opens: Ruben Archuleta said Tuesday that he stepped down as head boys basketball coach at McCurdy. Archuleta said he resigned to

spend more time with his two sons, who are ages 8 and 5, and to prepare for a campaign to run for a position on the Española Public Schools District board of education.

“You have to file your candidacy by December, and the elections are in February,” Archuleta said.

Archuleta compiled a 37-19 record in two seasons, and led the Bobcats to the Class A semifinals in 2013.

In brief

Youth baseball teams head to regional tournaments The Santa Fe Isotopes will head to Las Cruces searching for a title.

The Isotopes, the Santa Fe American Amateur Baseball Congress’ Roberto Clemente Division representative, headed south for the AABC South Plains Regional Tournament that begins Wednesday. The team of players ages 8 and under went 13-1 on the season to qualify itself for the regional tournament, which features mostly other New Mexico teams from around the state. The tournament continues through July 13.

The Isotopes are not the only ones representing Santa Fe this week. The Willie Mays Division (under-10) will hold its regional tournament in Santa Fe, beginning Wednesday. The 12-team tournament will feature three pools of teams that will determine placement for the bracket portion of the tournament, which begins Friday.

Santa Fe AABC will be represented by the White Sox and the Bulldogs, who both play at 9:30 a.m. and 5:30 p.m.

Wednesday.

Fuego blast Raton Osos 19-6 The Santa Fe Fuego won their third straight game by double digits with a 19-6 shellacking of the Raton Osos in a Pecos League baseball game at Gabriele Park on Tuesday night.

Santa Fe (33-19) was down 4-2 after one inning, but 10 runs in the second followed by four more in the third quickly gave the Fuego a 16-4 advantage.

The Fuego combined for 19 hits on the night, with catcher Eric Kozel leading the way by going 4-for-5 at the plate with two runs scored and four RBIs. Santa Fe third baseman Aaron Carmen went 3-3 with five runs scored.

Josh Downing (4-2) got the win for Santa Fe after pitching five innings with six hits, five earned runs and four strikeouts.

The Fuego will head to Taos for a game Wednesday before returning to Fort Marcy Ballpark on Thursday to host the Blizzard for three games. Santa Fe has games against only Taos, Raton and Trinidad for the remainder of the season.

Chihuahuas beat Isotopes 4-3 One good inning could not stand up for the Albuquerque Isotopes.

A three-run third inning gave the Isotopes a brief glimpse of hope, but it was not enough as the El Paso Chihuahuas won 4-3 in Pacific Coast League baseball on Tuesday night.

The loss is the third in the last four games for the Isotopes.

The Isotopes’ outburst erased a 1-0 deficit and was capped by a two-run double from Jamie Romak that scored Trayvon Robinson and Carl Crawford, who is on a rehab assignment for the parent club Los Angeles Dodgers.

Albuquerque (42-51) managed just four hits the rest of the night.

El Paso (45-48) scored a run in the fourth and two in the seventh to take the lead thanks to three singles and a walk.

Crawford went 2-for-2 in his fourth game of his rehab and boosted his batting average to .455. The two teams play Game 3 of the series at 7:05 p.m. Wednesday.

WORLD CUP

Analyzing Netherlands vs. Argentina Match will feature two best attacks in the tournament

The Associated Press

The Associated Press

Goalkeepers Jasper Cillessen was relatively untested internationally going into the World Cup, having made his Netherlands debut last year. But the Ajax goalkeeper has been solid, although not spectacular, in keeping two clean sheets and limiting defending champion Spain to just one goal from a penalty.

But he still has a long way to go before joining the ranks of great Dutch goalies like Edwin van der Sar and Hans van Breukelen, and was substituted for Tim Krul for the quarterfinal penalty shootout against Costa Rica.

Sergio Romero was only a backup for his club Monaco this past season but has been the Argentina starter since 2009, and is vastly more experienced than Cillessen. While Argentina’s strength is its attack, the team needed a number of key saves by Romero to keep Iran scoreless in a 1-0 win in the group stage. He has three clean sheets in Brazil, including in both knockout games. With Argentina’s back four seen as the team’s weakness, Romero has helped make sure the team only conceded

three goals in five games.

Advantage: Argentina

Defense Netherlands coach Louis van Gaal surprised many by adopting a five-man defensive line for this tournament, although in truth the two wingbacks have been pushing forward just as much as the midfielders. The strategy has been effective, though, and will likely be used again to neutralize Argentina’s explosive attack. Daley Blind has been one of the World Cup’s best defenders but may again have to fill in for the injured Nigel de Jong in midfield. Dirk Kuyt, normally a forward, has also looked vulnerable defensively in his new role as left back.

Argentina’s defense was seen as its main weakness going into the World Cup, but has grown increasingly solid as the tournament progressed.

Switzerland and Belgium were both held scoreless in the knockout stages — the Swiss through 120 minutes —

although neither team features an attack as dangerous as the Netherlands. Pablo Zabaleta anchors the back four while his Manchester City teammate Martin Demichelis may again get the nod after performing well against Belgium.

Advantage: Netherlands

Midfield Both teams are without a key piece to their midfield, although the respective effects will be vastly different. Nigel de Jong has long been the Dutch team’s bruiser, a tough tackler who shores up the defense and disrupts the other team’s play — often by any means necessary. His absence because of a groin injury will likely give Lionel Messi more room to maneuver, which could easily prove decisive.

Another problem for the Dutch is that Wesley Sneijder — one of the best players at the 2010 World Cup — has looked well past his prime in Brazil.

For Argentina, Angel Di Maria has been one of the team’s best players going forward, constantly using his pace to take on defenders and help create chances for the forwards. With Di Maria sidelined with a thigh injury, Ezequiel Lavezzi will have to take

on a bigger role on the wing.

Argentina does have a strong foundation in the middle with Javier Mascherano playing in front of the back four and providing both leadership and hard tackles.

Advantage: Argentina

Attack This is the area where both teams field world-class players. Dutch duo Robin van Persie and Arjen Robben tore defenses apart in the group stage, scoring three goals each, but have been kept fairly quiet in the knockout rounds. Van Persie was also struggling with a stomach complaint on the eve of the game.

An even bigger problem for the Netherlands is that Argentina’s front line is even more intimidating. With Lionel Messi playing alongside Gonzalo Higuain and the fit-again Sergio Aguero, Argentina has an attack that is unrivaled in international football. Aguero may not start, though, having missed the last two games with a thigh injury. While Argentina has won three of its games by 1-0 scorelines in Brazil, Messi has shown repeatedly that he can provide a winning goal when his team needs it the most.

Advantage: Argentina

Ticket scalping scandal continues in Brazil Police: Whelan ‘facilitator’ in ticket-scalping ring

By Graham Dunbar The Associated Press

RIO DE JANEIRO — A World Cup ticket scalping case has revived a reputation FIFA tries hard to fight, and threatens to stain a tournament that has been better than critics expected.

Soccer’s international governing body and its president, Sepp Blatter, have tried to present a new face in recent years after so many allegations of vote-buying and top officials seeming entitled by seeking favors.

Though many rules and faces have changed at the game’s headquarters, a skeptical view that the old culture remains in the inner circle has been fueled by the arrest this week of a director from a longtime World Cup commercial partner.

Released from custody by Rio de Janeiro police early Tuesday, Ray Whelan returned to work within hours at the five-star hotel where Blatter stays and the MATCH group of companies operates during FIFA’s showpiece event.

The Copacabana Palace is also where police conducted parts of an undercover operation known as Jules Rimet — named after the former FIFA president who launched the World Cup in 1930.

Whelan, a brother-in-law of MATCH founders Jaime and Enrique Byrom, is suspected of providing tickets to a scalping ring dealing corporate hospitality packages at highly inflated prices.

Reselling tickets for profit is illegal in Brazil.

Rights to the $600 million market in World Cup corporate tickets are owned by the MATCH Hospitality subsidiary. Its minority shareholders include a sports agency in Switzerland run by Philippe Blatter, a nephew of the FIFA president.

“MATCH have complete faith that the facts will establish that he [Whelan] has not violated any laws,” the company said.

The scalping probe is an embarrassment for FIFA and provoked awkward questions after weeks in which predicted street protests in 12 host cities didn’t materialize on mass scale.

FIFA has worked with the Byrom family from Mexico for more than 30 years and awarded contracts to the family’s com-

panies since the 1994 World Cup in the United States.

Asked Tuesday if Whelan’s accreditation would be revoked, FIFA spokeswoman Delia Fischer said football officials couldn’t act before getting a full report from police.

“We need all the proof,” Fischer told a news briefing. “We want the matter solved quickly and investigated to its fullest extent.”

Whelan was arrested Monday in his luxury suite at the hotel where police said they confiscated 82 tickets for upcoming matches, along with his computer, cellphone and other unspecified documents.

Police have described Whelan as the “facilitator” who allowed a large ring of scalpers to have access to tickets, which they re-sold at vastly inflated prices.

His attorney, Fernando Fernandes, told reporters his arrest was “illegal and absurd.”

Whelan, who is based in MATCH’s Rio office, will not be allowed to leave Brazil during the tournament. He was detained after the earlier arrests of 11 people, including Algerian national Mohamadou Lamine Fofana.

Germany: Brazil defense disorganized Continued from Page B-5 time the team has lost in an official competitive match on home soil since 1975, when Peru won 3-1 at the very same stadium in the Copa America.

Its last loss at home came in a friendly with Paraguay in 2002.

Previously, Brazil’s biggest World Cup loss was 3-0 to France in the 1998 final. In the 1920 South American championship, the predecessor of the Copa America, Brazil lost 6-0 to Uruguay.

“The responsibility for this catastrophic result is mine,” Brazil coach Luiz Felipe Scolari said. “I was in charge.”

It was Germany’s biggest World Cup win since routing Saudi Arabia 8-0 in a group match in 2002.

LeBron James holds meetings in Vegas

By Tim Reynolds

By Mattias Karen

RIO DE JANEIRO — When Argentina plays the Netherlands in the World Cup semifinals on Wednesday, it will be a matchup of arguably the two best attacks in the tournament.

No less than five of the world’s best forwards could be on the field, which would normally raise expectations of a flurry of goals and end-to-end attacking football.

But there’s too much at stake for either team to push forward relentlessly, meaning that the game in São Paulo is about much more than its star strikers.

Here is a look at how the teams measure up in every area of the field:

NBA

On Tuesday, with Bernard playing as the third striker in the place of Neymar, Brazil attacked from the start. But they failed to get any solid chances, and it wasn’t long before the Germans opened up the defense and started the rout.

Toni Kroos and Andre Schuerrle scored two goals each, while Thomas Mueller and Sami Khedira added the others.

Oscar pulled a late goal back for Brazil.

“Brazil was shocked after the goals, they did not expect that.

They did not know what to do,” Loew said. “Their defense was not organized. A little humbleness would not hurt now.”

Klose scored his record goal

in the 23rd minute to make it 2-0. The German had his original shot saved, but he followed up as Brazil goalkeeper Julio Cesar spilled the ball, easily scoring from the rebound.

Kroos scored his first goal in the 25th minute, knocking in a cross from Philipp Lahm that bypassed Mueller in the middle. He made it 4-0 a minute later, beating Cesar after a defensive mistake from Fernandinho left the ball on the feet of Khedira.

Mueller scored the first goal, one-timing a corner from Kroos past Cesar in the 11th minute. Khedira made it 5-0 in the 29th, taking a pass from Mesut Ozil and again beating Cesar.

“Today 10 minutes went wrong in the game and Ger-

many did really well,” Scolari said. “It’s a chaotic and terrible defeat … but we have to learn from it.”

Schuerrle, who came on for Klose in the 58th minute, scored from a cross by Lahm in the 69th, and then knocked a shot off the underside of the crossbar and into the net in the 79th.

It’s the first time Brazil had allowed five goals in a World Cup match since the 1938 tournament in France, when the team beat Poland 6-5 in extra time.

In previous World Cup semifinal matches, the largest margin of defeat was five goals, occurring on three occasions.

“The German quality is very, very high,” Scolari said. “This is not normal.”

LAS VEGAS, Nev. — LeBron James worked out and had a meeting agenda Tuesday.

In another summer of NBA Free Agent frenzy, if James knows where he will be playing next season, he still isn’t saying.

Asked by The Associated Press how free agency was going when his afternoon meeting agenda was apparently complete, the four-time MVP said “no complaints.”

He offered a quick greeting, and provided no hints of anything — including when his next “Decision” will be known — before leaving with a wave.

The entire exchange lasted about eight seconds. James, who has been relatively quiet while weighing his options, never broke stride.

He was upstairs in an exclusive part of a Las Vegas, Nev., hotel Tuesday, holding court for a little more than three hours before emerging in the lobby, walking toward his assembled brain trust — including longtime manager Maverick Carter and Nike representatives, a sponsor of the LeBron James Skills Academy he’ll be hosting in Las Vegas, Nev., starting Wednesday — and got whisked away.

James is expected to meet with Miami Heat President Pat Riley before making a final decision on his NBA future, and a person close to the situation said that meeting had not happened as of Tuesday afternoon. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because no one has publicly announced the date of the meeting.

Some of James’ representatives have met with several teams, including the Cleveland Cavaliers.

After filming a TV com-

mercial in Coral Gables, Fla., on Monday, James flew to Las Vegas, Nev., which was planned because of LeBron his academy.

James Later this week, he’s expected to travel to Brazil to the World Cup final.

He took time to Tuesday morning to work out with Dwyane Wade before his meetings, another person close to the situation told the AP. Like James, Wade has also not announced his plans for next season and beyond, though it is still largely expected that the 2006 NBA Finals MVP and three-time champion will remain in Miami.

James’ future remains anyone’s guess.

And it appears the buildup to his second foray into free-agent craziness will last longer than the one that culminated in him going to Miami in 2010. He made that announcement on July 8, 2010 — exactly four years ago Tuesday.

Unlike 2010, James has kept a much lower profile during his courtship. While he was on a family vacation, his agent, Rich Paul, met in Cleveland with the Cavs as well as the Houston Rockets, Dallas Mavericks, Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix Suns, all of whom pitched plans as to why the 29-year-old superstar should sign with them.

While James may be nearing an announcement, that won’t come until he’s met with Riley. And the Heat have been making moves as well, announcing Monday that they intend to sign forwards Danny Granger and Josh McRoberts, two free agents to bolster their roster.

Oscar Pistorius trial: Defense ends its case

By Christopher Torchia The Associated Press

JOHANNESBURG — The murder trial of Oscar Pistorius moved closer to a verdict on Tuesday when the defense ended its case. In early August the judge will hear final arguments that will highlight opposing portraits of the Paralympic athlete — a gunobsessed egotist who shot girlfriend Reeva Steekamp in a rage or a vulnerable figure with a disability who pulled the trigger in a tragic case of mistaken identity.

The trial has transfixed South Africans and others around the world who recall the double-amputee runner competing on carbon fiber blades at the 2012 Olympics in London. The triumphant image of Pistorius racing alongside able-bodied athletes contrasts with the anguished spectacle in the Pretoria courtroom, where he faced a blistering interrogation by the prosecutor and sometimes wailed and retched in apparent distress, spittle dripping into a bucket at his feet.

Pistorius, 27, was among several dozen witnesses, ranging from neighbors who heard screams on the night he killed Steenkamp, to experts who talked about the trajectory of the four bullets he fired through a closed toilet door to a former girlfriend and a sports physician who treated the star athlete for years. Pistorius says he killed Steenkamp, a 29-year-old model, by mistake, thinking an intruder was in the toilet and about to attack him; the prosecution says he shot her after a Valentine’s Day argument last year.

Defense lawyer Barry Roux said he had finished calling witnesses, and that some people did not want to testify for

the defense because of the publicity surrounding the case.

Roux said he chose not to ask Judge Thokozile Oscar Masipa to Pistorius compel them to appear, and also noted that a psychiatrist who evaluated Pistorius for the defense recently suffered a heart attack was not able to testify.

“We close the case for the defense,” Roux said.

Chief prosecutor Gerrie Nel then said the prosecution will file closing arguments on July 30 and the defense will do so on Aug. 4. He and Roux agreed to return to court on Aug. 7-8 to give final arguments before Judge Thokozile Masipa, who instructed that the media should not report on the legal summaries of either side until the final arguments start in court.

Anyone responsible for a document leak is a “thief” who is undermining the interests of justice, said the redrobed judge, who is a former journalist.

Once final arguments occur, Masipa is expected to announce a further break during which she will deliberate on a verdict with the help of two legal assistants who flank her on a dais during court proceedings.

The period of one month granted for legal teams to prepare final arguments will allow them to pore over the lengthy transcript of testimony, documents submitted by experts and other information in a complex trial, said Kelly Phelps, a senior lecturer in the public law department at the University of Cape Town who has closely followed the case.

anta Fe is paradise, particularly in the summer. For those of us who live here, we find that the opera/hiking/barbecue season brings waves of eager house guests and family members who come to visit us. Upon arrival, they usually ask two questions: What to do? Where to eat?

We, the denizens, think the view of Loretto Chapel is best appreciated from behind a plate of relleños, and the arrival of guests gives us an excuse to break our diets and munch our way through a city renowned for the quality of its food. In between all the strenuous hiking and tromping up and down Canyon Road, we flit from eatery to eatery like ravenous butterflies armed with strong opinions about red chile and Yelp reviews.

Nick Peña understands this phenomenon better than anyone. A Santa Fe native who attended St. Michael’s High School and The University of New Mexico, Peña is the lead singer/guitarist of popular local band La Junta, and he’s an avid foodie and ambitious entrepreneur. In 2011, Peña founded Food Tour New Mexico (www.foodtournew mexico.com; he likes to make everyone spell it out), a company that locals may not have heard of but which is growing quickly in popularity with tourists and hotel concierges who cater to them.

The seed of the idea was planted when he was a child, when relatives would visit from out of town and his mother would take them on, for example, a margarita tour of Santa Fe. “We’d hang around, go get some food, tell some stories, talk about the city,” Peña says. “I took a couple of food tours four or five years ago, and it just kind of dawned on me. I didn’t understand why there wasn’t something like this in Santa Fe. This is a niche nobody’s touching on, so I decided to try and put it together.”

Food Tour New Mexico’s first outing was the “Sample Santa Fe” tour, a New Mexican foodthemed journey that ranges from enchiladas at San Francisco Street Bar & Grill, green chile stew at the Thunderbird Bar & Grill, oil and vinegar at Santa Fe Olive Oil, green chile pizza at Upper

so casual. I think a lot of people appreciate that. We have talking points in between each restaurant, and it’s very structured, but we’re not walking backwards with a hat and a whistle. We’re not going to treat you like a child.” Nick Peña, founder of Food Tour New Mexico Crust and finally spicy chocolate at Señor Murphy’s Candymaker (restaurants involved are sometimes subject to change).

The walking tours run only about a mile to a mile-and-a-half long. The fee is $58 per person and includes all the food and nonalcoholic beverages (participants can buy real drinks on the way if they like) and, of course, the sparkling commentary.

“You have to imagine it as somewhat of a historical tour,” Peña says. “We have our points of interest: We talk about the Loretto Chapel, the staircase, the oldest church, a little history of Santa Fe, etc.”

Some people (especially if they have ever been stuck in traffic behind a slow-moving tour trolley) may be skeptical about tours, with visions of middle school field trips making them hesitant to sign on for the experience. But Peña insists that the vibe on his tours is designed to redefine the concept for participants.

“I’ve taken tons of tours. I don’t want to baby people. We work really hard to make it look so casual. I think a lot of people appreciate that. We have talking points in between each restaurant, and it’s very structured, but we’re not walking backwards with a hat and a whistle. We’re not going to treat you like a child.”

Peña says he initially got a mixed reaction from the restaurants he approached with his idea. “A lot of restaurant owners who really understood the concept, got it,” he says, but “a lot of people

outside of that realm weren’t as supportive as I expected.”

As a local boy, Peña thought he would receive more support. “I guess I expected a hug or something,” he says, “but instead sometimes nobody really cared. So I just put my head down and kept building.”

And since he built it, they did in fact come. Six days out of the week, avid foodies are led like wellfed ducklings around downtown on one of two tours, the “Sample Santa Fe” or the “Taste of Santa Fe,” which generally tromps from La Casa Sena to Taberna, then from Santa Fe Olive Oil to Rio Chama and ends at Kakawa Chocolate House.

The company has since expanded to include cocktail and mixology classes three days a week, including a class on culinary cocktails designed

by Quinn Stephenson at the Den, and on south to Albuquerque, where they lead two tours around Old Town and Nob Hill. Peña also holds special events, including a health-conscious wine pairing dinner at Yanni’s Mediterranean Grill in Albuquerque, and beginning July 18, he will add a Santa Fe taproom tour that crawls between Second Street Brewery, Marble Brewery, Blue Corn Café and Draft Station.

And Peña doesn’t intend to stop there.

“I expect it to be much bigger by next year,” he says. “I’d like to go potentially statewide. Since Day One, I bought domains covering the state … and other states. I mean, I own foodtouramerica.com.”

With a new school year on the horizon, it’s time to think about what’s for lunch. Brown bagging it is plenty economical, but a steady diet of sandwiches becomes boring pretty quickly, to say nothing of the fact that all those servings of refined carbs simply don’t provide the energy necessary to power you through a long afternoon.

So here is an alternative to the typical sandwich — colorful veggie/ protein rolls that are light, yet still substantial. I modeled it on a sushi roll, but swapped out the rice for quinoa, and the fish for turkey.

By now, most folks have heard of quinoa, an ancient grain-like seed.

It’s not only a protein-rich food, it’s also gluten-free and a terrific source of many nutrients, including fiber.

But flavor-wise, quinoa isn’t exactly a powerhouse. So I add a little lemon juice and olive oil, which makes it quite tasty.

Another of quinoa’s charms is that it’s quick to cook, unlike most grains.

White quinoa is the most common variety, but you’re welcome to substitute black or red in this recipe (though the end result will not be as pleasing to the eye). Be sure to check the back of the package to make sure the quinoa has been prewashed.

If not, rinse it well yourself before cooking. It can be bitter otherwise.

This lunch roll is formed with a double layer of sliced turkey breast, which ensures that it won’t fall apart. Lean roast beef would perform the same task, if that’s more your style. I’ve filled it with carrots and red peppers, but any vegetables cut into thin strips will do.

Likewise, you can substitute the lettuce of your choice for the spinach I specify.

This recipe is very adaptable.

QUINOA LUNCH BOX ROLLUPS Total time: 45 minutes (20 active), makes four rollups ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth ¼ cup quinoa 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil 8 deli slices (about 8 ounces) fresh or smoked turkey 3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons light mayonnaise 1 cup (½ ounce ) baby spinach ½ red bell pepper, cored and cut into ⅛-inch-thick strips 1 small carrot, cut into ⅛-inchthick strips Preparation: In a small saucepan, bring the broth to a boil. Add the quinoa, return to a boil, cover and cook over medium heat until the quinoa has absorbed all of the broth, about 12 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the lemon juice and olive oil, then fluff with a fork. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes. Let cool to room temperature before assembling the rolls.

On a cutting board lay out 4 of the turkey slices. Top each one with a second turkey slice to make a double layer. Spread 2 teaspoons of the mayonnaise on the top of each double layer, then spread a quarter of the spinach on top of the mayonnaise.

Mound a quarter of the quinoa on top of the spinach, spreading it to within ½ inch of the edges.

Arrange several red pepper and carrot slices crosswise down the middle of the roll. Starting with the short side of each turkey stack, roll up the turkey tightly to enclose the filling. Cut each roll crosswise into 4 rounds and arrange the slices, cut sides up, in a lunch container.

TRAVEL ‘Valley of absinthe’ France-Switzerland border has rich ties to the once-banned spirit known as Green Fairy

Christophe Racine prepares a batch of absinthe at his distillery in Motiers, Switzerland, in June.

Mobile apps offer last-minute travel deals

By Stacy A. Anderson The Associated Press

NEW YORK — While new technology and mobile applications have made old-fashion road trips easier, the thrill of spontaneity and surprise still remains. If travelers are flexible, apps can offer ease with lastminute deals, especially good for day trips and overnight stays.

Need a hotel room immediately? There’s an app for that. Or for a quick turnaround — when you just need a space to rest for a few hours — there’s an app for that too.

Here are three handy apps for mobile device users:

S

unbeams shot through the forest, lighting up the wispy fog on the path ahead. For over an hour, I’d been walking up the mountain trail without seeing a soul, marching to the off-kilter orchestras of Swiss cowbells ringing their dull symphonies in nearby meadows, to which I added my own contrapuntal exhalations whenever I stopped to catch my breath.

For several minutes, I was certain that I had lost my way. But eventually I spotted a sign for the goal I was seeking: La Fontaine Froide, it said, was somewhere up ahead.

A “cold fountain” wasn’t the only reason I’d come to this tiny Francophone valley in northwest Switzerland, just across the border from the Franche-Comté province of eastern France. I was looking for the fountain because its chilly water was said to be ideal for diluting — or “troubling,” as locals put it — a glass of absinthe, the area’s traditional alcoholic beverage. An intense spirit flavored with a bouquet of powerful herbs, absinthe had been the favorite drink of impressionist painters, romantic poets and the bons vivants of the belle epoque before being banned around Europe on the eve of World War I. There was supposed to be a bottle of the good stuff, as well as a glass, waiting to reward any visitor who survived the long hike up the mountain.

As I approached, I heard the gentle dribble of icy water. Just off the path stood a long basin carved out of a hollowed-out log, into which a stream flowed from a spigot overgrown with verdant moss, almost the same color as the traditional green version of the drink, absinthe verte. A trail marker noted that I had reached 1,126 meters, or 3,694 feet, and I felt the relief of having achieved my goal. But the bottle I had been promised was nowhere to be seen — spirited off, I imagined, by the Green Fairy herself, or some other mythical inhabitant of the Val-de-Travers.

“You’re in the valley of absinthe, in the place where it was born,” said Claude-Alain Bugnon, the distiller of La Clandestine and other cult absinthes, as he poured me another shot and topped it off with chilled water after

After a century, people no longer seemed to fear the Green Fairy, and the growing popularity of cheap, inauthentic absinthes put pressure on authorities to lift the ban in absinthe’s traditional homelands.

I told him about my trip to the fountain the next day. The unsaid lesson: It was foolish to hike for hours in search of something as ubiquitous as absinthe in the Val-de-Travers, where the drink known as la Fée Verte, or the Green Fairy, had been distilled for hundreds of years. But the long walk through the forests and fields had given me a deep appreciation for the landscape that had produced one of the world’s most celebrated — and, at one time, reviled — beverages. And naturally, it had also helped me work up quite a thirst.

That thirst had been initially piqued just a few weeks earlier. A friend in Prague had started hosting upscale absinthe tastings at a bar there last summer, including several of the new — or renewed — versions coming out of France and Switzerland. Although both countries had banned the drink about 100 years ago, following widespread panic about the hallucinogenic and deleterious effects of absinthe, production was legalized again in Switzerland in 2005, followed by France in 2011.

After a century, people no longer seemed to fear the Green Fairy, and the growing popularity of cheap, inauthentic absinthes from countries where the drink had never been banned — primarily the Czech Republic — put pressure on authorities to lift the ban in absinthe’s traditional homelands.

After sitting in on one of my friend’s tast-

ings, I found myself unable to stop thinking about the complexity of the drink’s anise aromas and the starkness of the bitter herbs on the tongue, and was deeply disappointed that I couldn’t find anything similar, not even at the city’s best bottle shops. (And although I certainly didn’t hallucinate, I missed the pleasant dreaminess the drink seemed to evoke.) As I began reading more about absinthe, I discovered that some of the most highly praised versions came from the Valde-Travers. Indeed, it turned out that the area and the nearby province in France even had something called la route de l’absinthe, or absinthe trail, a semi-organized list of attractions related to the drink: distilleries, museums, restaurants and destinations like the Fontaine Froide.

Two weeks later, I was watching the azure waters of Lac Léman flash by on a high-speed train from Geneva Airport to Neuchâtel, where I would transfer to a local train for the short final leg. If good absinthe couldn’t come to me, I’d decided, I simply had to hit the Swiss-French absinthe trail.

The view into the Val-de-Travers gave me a taste of the area’s remote ruggedness. On either side of the tracks, pine-covered mountains soared up into the clouds, their tops invisible through the gray. The journey from Neuchâtel was short, taking only a half-hour or so, but as the train progressed we passed through multiple dark tunnels cut through the rock. Above the tracks, nets of heavy cables were set up to catch any falling boulders.

It was an ideal landscape, I imagined, for bootleggers and smugglers, with hidden paths climbing up to high plateaus overlooking the valley, like the panoramic cliff called the Creux du Van that I’d summited after my unsuccessful hike up to the Fontaine Froide. And indeed, as Bugnon explained when I met him in his distillery in Couvet, bootlegging was a substantial reason absinthe had returned so quickly to the region after it was re-legalized in 2005.

With a population of only 10,000, there were now more than 20 legal distillers of absinthe in the Val-de-Travers, he said, and many more still operating as “clandestins,” or illegal producers.

“That’s the main difference between us and the other countries,” he said. “In Switzerland, we never stopped making absinthe. It was banned, but it was always there.” He gestured dismissively toward the country to the west.

“In France, they made pastis.”

I’d had plenty of pastis as a student in Paris, and I remembered that it had been marketed as a replacement for absinthe after the drink was banned. Pastis was a fine drink and happily inexpensive during my student years.

But it had nothing on a true absinthe.

HotelTonight offers discounted rooms at more than 10,000 hotels in nearly 400 destination cities, including Miami, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago and Boston to international hotspots like London, Paris and Barcelona. Reservations are for the night of the day you select the discounted rate and can be booked up to five nights.

The app recently launched Express Check-in, which allows guests to immediately pick up their keys at the front desk without a lengthy process. This zip feature is only available for select hotels using the app on iPhones, and will roll out to Android users later this month.

Over a recent holiday weekend in New York — when locals often vacate the city and tourists take over — HotelTonight still offered substantial deals, especially for the early worm checking the app when new postings go live at 9 a.m. Rooms can be booked until 2 a.m.

For example, the Element by Westin in Times Square, a solid-rated Starwood Hotels and Resorts property, offered one king bed for $129 on HotelTonight, compared to $169 on its own website.

For a step up, the Soho House New York, a luxrated hotel in the trendy Meatpacking District, posted a small room with a queen size bed for $298 on the app, a nearly 15 percent savings compared to $350 on its own website.

Breather If you’ve checked out of the hotel room already and don’t depart until later in the day, or take a day trip and have some leisure down time, there may be a private space for relief in your city — or coming soon.

The Breather app launched in New York City earlier this year lets you check in to a commercial space complete with a table and couch to “meet, work or rest” for 30 minutes to several hours at a time. Some rooms are available as early as 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. for $25 an hour, and may accommodate up to 10 people.

Reservations can be made via the app on iPhone and Android devices, or online.

Co-founder and CEO Julien Smith said Breather is a welcome alternative to loud, bustling coffee chains where travelers often fight for space and outlets.

“You’re just constantly wandering around in cities that you don’t know very well and you feel like you have no place to go,” said Smith, who came up with the concept after frequently traveling for business and speaking engagements. “There’s this huge scarcity of space going on in any major city of the world … so, in a lot of places, people are just feeling that pain and when you don’t have a lot of time, you don’t mind paying for valuable time, or time that has what you want.”

The 10 Breather locations in Manhattan span from Midtown near the Rockefeller Center to Soho’s shopping district. After having brunch with friends and a few hours to spare before catching a bus back home, I checked into a Breather room two blocks from Penn Station to duck out of the rain.

The Montreal-based app is all about a trendy, relaxing oasis, and it’s in the details.

The bright, airy room was equipped with the essentials, plus a white board, mini-book library on a wall rack, Tootsie Rolls on the coffee table and a yoga mat stowed in a corner.

Smith said Breather will add more rooms in New York to meet the growing demand for versatile uses of space such as business meetings, counseling sessions and acting rehearsals. Joining New York and Montreal, Breather expanded to San Francisco in June. Toronto, Boston and Seattle will soon follow in the third quarter.

New York is best known for big lights and live shows on Broadway, but that doesn’t mean you have to pay hundreds for top-notch seats. The Theatre Development Fund has TKTS Discount Booths with locations in Times Square, South Street Seaport and downtown Brooklyn that sell Broadway and offBroadway show tickets for 20 to 50 percent off.

Though discounted tickets must be purchased in person, a TKTS app lets customers see availability in real-time for evening shows that day and matinees (South Street and Brooklyn sites only), before reaching the cashier window or even getting in line.

This saves you time and allows you to come up with a list of a few shows of interest, which TKTS recommends.

The app launched in December 2010, but became available to iPad users in April. The app also lists other helpful information including the show’s description and monthly schedule, theater location, directions, closest subway stops and— for the hardpressed— a link to purchase full-price tickets.

After standing in line for about 10 minutes and deciding on my top three choices from the day’s selection, I scored a half-off, front-row ticket for $80 to see the Jazz Age-themed After Midnight starring Grammy-winning singer Fantasia.

Celiac disease is not a ‘fad’ diet Dear Annie: The current “fad” of gluten-free products is both beneficial and harmful to those of us who must follow a gluten-free diet because of celiac disease. On one hand, it’s easier to find glutenfree foods. But on the other hand, those of us with celiac disease are looked upon as if we are simply food faddists. Here are some of the problems we face: Restaurants are more aware of the need to serve gluten-free meals, but are often sloppy in their attempts to avoid cross-contamination, not being aware of the extreme importance of “not even a crumb.”

When a hostess declares a dish to be gluten-free, does she understand the restrictions of wheat, rye and barley? Will she be kind to us if we question her recipes? Will she be offended if we decline to partake?

When we are at a dinner, we often hear such ignorant comments as, “Are you trying to improve your athletic performance?” or “Go ahead, a little won’t hurt you. Don’t be so fussy.”

Can you help educate the public about the difference between celiac disease, which necessitates a gluten-free diet for medical reasons, and those who are simply making a personal choice?

— Cheryl in Pennsylvania Dear Cheryl: No one should treat eating restrictions as a “fad,” because you never know who truly has a serious problem. In people with celiac disease, eating anything with gluten triggers an immune response. It can damage the small intestine and make it difficult to absorb nutrients from food. Left untreated, celiac disease can lead to anemia, osteoporosis and lymphoma. In children, celiac disease can slow growth and weaken bones. There is often a genetic component. On the other hand, some folks are simply gluten sensitive. Eating gluten may make them uncomfortable or tired, and when they cut gluten out of their

diet, they feel more energetic.

“Cheating,” however, will not cause the severe symptoms of celiac disease.

Dear Annie: I read your response to “Not a Christian,” who objected to a breakfast gathering that started with the blessing “in Jesus’ name.” You said it was inappropriate.

I suspect the majority of the people in that room find comfort in this blessing, and the rest probably don’t care. Why offend many to make a very few happy? People like this are intolerant and selfish.

If this person finds this blessing so offensive, he should move to another community or keep his mouth closed for the duration of the blessing. — Karen from Wyoming Dear Wyoming: We know many find these blessings comforting, but others do not. Why offend anyone? This is not a religious gathering. It does not require a public prayer from any denomination, and it’s certainly not for the majority religion to impose its beliefs on the rest, no matter how few. Those who wish to give a blessing of any kind can do so at their own table instead of insisting on offering a prayer on behalf of others who would rather you didn’t. Here’s a truly tolerant solution: Dear Annie: Many years ago, when I was a member of an international service organization, we began each of our meetings with a prayer. I, too, felt the same as “Not a Christian.” So when I became president, I went to a bookstore and purchased a book that included prayers and readings from all denominations, including atheism and non-traditional religions. At each meeting, I chose a different prayer or inspirational message to read.

The members felt that this was very informative and learned a little bit each week about different religions. Perhaps this would be a solution to others. — Betsy in N.J.
