GOP aims for action in Congress Narrow agenda designed to achieve unity, attract Democratic votes

By Lori Montgomery and Robert Costa The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Within hours of solidifying their control of Congress, Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and House Speaker John Boehner were quietly laying plans for a series of quick votes in January aimed at erasing their obstructionist image ahead of the 2016 elections.

First up: Action on long-stalled bills with bipartisan support, including measures to repeal an unpopular tax on medical devices and approve construction of the Keystone XL oil pipeline.

After that: Pass a budget through both chambers of Congress for the first time since 2009, followed by the full array of government-funding bills. “There will be no government shutdowns,” said the Senate majority leader-in-waiting, Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. Finally: Aim for the big score. Not repealing President Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act, though the conservative campaign to undermine the law will proceed in the background.

Instead, Republicans dangled the prospect of fast-track trade agreements and sweeping tax reform as potential areas of agreement during Obama’s waning days in office.

Even before voters went to the polls Tuesday, McConnell and Boehner, R-Ohio, began mapping this coordinated strategy in hopes of unifying Republicans, picking up support from some Democratic lawmak-

The New Mexican

Gov. Susana Martinez, riding on her decisive re-election this week, can — and most likely will — argue that her victory gives her a mandate to implement parts of her agenda she wasn’t able to achieve in her first four years in office.

Yet to be seen is exactly how far that mandate will get her in pushing for her goals and what her administration will look like in a second term.

The big win already has heightened her national profile.

In her faceoff with Attorney General Gary King, Martinez was re-elected with more than 57 percent of the vote — the biggest margin for a Republican gubernatorial candidate in this state in at least decades. Plus, she apparently had coattails. For the first time since 1952, Republicans won a majority of seats in the state House of Representatives.

But while her percentage was huge, because of a significant drop in voter turnout, Martinez’s raw vote total is more than 32,000 below the number of New Mexicans who voted for her four years ago. Unofficial returns show more than 9,000 people who cast ballots this time skipped the governor’s race. And more than 2,700 people who voted in the U.S. Senate race didn’t vote in the governor’s race.

Fresh from their historic victory, Republicans in the New Mexico House of Representatives have scheduled a caucus for Saturday to discuss who will lead them next year.

The GOP took control of the House in Tuesday’s election by knocking out four sitting Democrats and winning one open seat.

Republicans will become the majority party for the first time since 1954, the year the U.S. Supreme Court ordered desegregation of public schools. Their advantage in the House is 37-33.

“It’s kind of surreal,” Rep. Jim Smith, R-Sandia Park, said of the shift in power.

Smith said he had nobody in particular in mind for speaker of the House, but like all other members, he had heard that Rep. Don Tripp, R-Socorro, wants the job.

“I think he’d be a great choice,” Smith said.

“He’s well-liked by everybody, and he is somewhat of a statesman.”

Though Smith said he admires Tripp, he said he wants to wait until the caucus to see who else might run for speaker so he can he evaluate all the candidates.

Tripp, in a separate interview, was candid about his aspiration of being speaker.

“I’m definitely interested. But so are 70 other people,” he said, a reference to the full membership of the House.

Actually, the number of contenders is much smaller.

If Republicans close ranks behind one candidate, the 33 House Democrats have no chance

FALL OF BERLIN WALL, 25 YEARS LATER

BERLIN — Kai Feller was 16 when his fellow students put him on trial.

On that early autumn day in 1988, pupils stood up to denounce Feller and seven other troublemakers as “traitors” and “pacifists.” Then the class voted to expel Feller from the official youth movement, membership of which was compulsory for anyone with ambition in communist East Germany.

Before the mass protests that led to the fall of the Berlin Wall, a group of teenagers dared to challenge the

In the Kafka-esque world of East Germany, the students were punished for doing precisely what they were told to do: post their views on the bulletin board of a new “Speakers Corner” the elite Carl-von-Ossietzky high school in east Berlin set up near its entrance.

Southern New Mexico businessman Aubrey Dunn thanked voters Wednesday morning for edging him into victory over Democratic incumbent Ray Powell as New Mexico’s next state land commissioner.

However, it will still be a couple of weeks before Dunn, a Republican, knows if his win is secure.

Powell said he is not yet ready to concede until the vote-counting process is finished. But Aubrey Dunn if canvassing or a recount still finds Dunn the winner, Powell said he will work to make the transition as smooth as possible for his successor.

The Secretary of State’s Office called Ray Powell the race in Dunn’s favor Wednesday morning. But the unofficial final tally put Dunn ahead of Powell by only 1,918 votes, or less than 0.5 percent of the 490,277 votes cast in the race. Under state law, the slim difference triggers an automatic recount.

First the counties have to canvas their votes by Nov. 14, then the Secretary of State’s Office has to canvas statewide and, finally, an independent auditor checks the tally, said Ken Ortiz, spokesman for the Secretary of State’s Office. The results go to the State Canvassing Board on Nov. 25, which will decide if an auto-

In brief

Ukraine halts funds to eastern territories KIEV, Ukraine — Ukraine will freeze budget subsidies for the eastern territories controlled by proRussian separatists, the prime minister announced Wednesday — a move that could worsen the already grievous economic conditions there.

Aging industrial operations in Ukraine’s economically depressed but coal-rich east have for many years relied heavily on state subsidies.

Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk told a government meeting that $2.6 billion in state support will be held back from rebel-held areas in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions.

Mine owners won’t retrieve 29 killed WELLINGTON, New Zealand — The owners of a New Zealand coal mine where the bodies of 29 workers remain entombed after a methanefueled explosion four years ago say they won’t go back into the mine because it remains too dangerous.

The announcement Thursday by state-owned company Solid Energy dashed the hopes of those who’d sought to recover the remains of their loved ones from the Pike River mine. Solid Energy Board Chairwoman Pip Dunphy said in a statement she knew the decision would be very disappointing to relatives of those killed but any further deaths would be unacceptable.

by Tsering Topgyal The Associated Press

DHARAMSALA, India hen I was 8 years old, my parents paid a smuggler to take me across the Himalayas, a weekslong walk over the mountains from Tibet to India. It was a trek that tens of thousands of other Tibetans have taken since the Dalai Lama fled a failed 1959 uprising against Chinese rule.

My parents must have had their reasons to send me here; they must have had the best of intentions. But 18 years later, I still don’t know why they did it. They are not political people. They are small farmers who raise barley and a few yak in a rural area not far from Lhasa, the Tibetan capital. I have not seen them since I left. As a boy, I hardly thought about them. I was in a new

country, part of a community-inexile the Dalai Lama had created in India. I lived in a school with hundreds of other Tibetan refugee children. But as I grew older I began to long for them. Today, we occasionally talk on the phone, and that has helped keep us together despite the distance. But long silences often fill our conversations. Over the years, our relationship has only grown more complex, more limited. It is a relationship so many Tibetan refugees understand. These photos, all of Tibetans who have not seen their parents since coming to India, are my attempt to understand the ideas of family, home, belonging and nostalgia.

Across the years, and with so much distance, everything changes.

Time heals many wounds, but also works in strange ways. Tsering Choephel, a Tibetan who left home 23 years ago, said he sometimes dreams of seeing his family again.

“The great tragedy of my life is not being separated from my family, but being separated from the sensibility of missing them, after living without them for decades.”

Kalsang, 19, stands in a college library near Dharmsala, India.

She escaped from Tibet in 2004 and says she misses her parents more as she grows older.

Judge overturns Mo. ban on gay marriage ST. LOUIS — A state judge overturned Missouri’s constitutional ban on gay marriage Wednesday in a ruling that immediately set off a rush among some same-sex couples to apply for marriage licenses.

NEW YORK — A snaggletooth 8-year-old. A middle-schooler with a punk rocker bob cut and big earrings.

Tween siblings with a penchant for playing. These are among the young power brokers who will determine the toys that will be under Christmas trees this year.

At a time when toy sales have stagnated for years at $22 billion, children who review toys on YouTube are wielding increasing influence.

Toymakers are courting them for their ability to connect with a generation that views the online video sharing service like baby boomers do HBO. “Kids trust other kids more so than they would an adult,” says Marc Rosenberg, a Chicago-based toy consultant.

Leading the pack of pint-sized YouTube personalities is Evan, 8, who has dimples and a few missing teeth.

With over 1 billion views between his three channels, he’s YouTube’s most popular kid. He gets over 800 million views from EvanTubeHD, where he reviews the toys.

EvanTubeHD, which features special effects thanks to his dad, Jared, who runs a video production company full-time, is known for telling kids how to play with toys. In a review of Angry Birds Space Softee Dough playset, Evan apologizes for a noticeable lisp: “Sorry if I’m talking a little funny today because I just lost my tooth.”

Behind Evan are a few other young YouTube phenoms: u Siblings Noah, 14, Jonah, 12, and Emma, 11 star in KittiesMama, which has nearly 400 million views.

KittiesMama is a reality show that chronicles the kids’ daily lives. They also review toys and Emma shows kids how to look like characters from toy lines like My Little Pony. u Gracie Hunter, 11, pairs up with her mother, Melissa, in Mommy and Gracie, which has close to 90 million views. Gracie, a redhead who sometimes sports black glasses with rhinestones, searches for hardto-find dolls with her mom. u RadioJH Audrey has more than 60 million views. Audrey, 11, speaks to tweens, frequently saying “cool” and “awesome.” She also streaks her bobbed hair in a rainbow of colors and wears big jewelry and studded tees. Audrey’s trademark: reviewing mystery toy bags that are sold at places like Toys R Us. Julie Krueger, industry director of retail at Google, which owns YouTube, says the channels have “huge followings of fans.”

Toymakers — from Mattel to smaller ones — have noticed. In fact, Spin Master says Evan’s reviews helped boost sales of its Spy Gear toys 65 percent this year. The private company declined to disclose sales numbers.

Hamas militant kills pedestrians

Long-held Guantánamo prisoner sent to Kuwait

One dead, 13 wounded in East Jerusalem incident

By Ben Fox

By Tia Goldenbergv The Associated Press

JERUSALEM — A Hamas militant slammed a minivan into a crowd waiting for a train Wednesday in Jerusalem, killing one person and wounding 13. Hours later, the Israeli military said a Palestinian motorist drove into a group of soldiers in the West Bank, injuring three.

Police identified the van’s driver — who was killed by police — as Ibrahim al-Akari, a 38-year-old Palestinian.

His wife said he was angered by a confrontation between police and Palestinians at the Al-Aqsa Mosque earlier in the day in which part of the shrine was damaged.

Hamas praised the van attack as a defense of the mosque, which is part of a complex in the city’s most sensitive and sacred site — the compound known to Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary and to Jews as the Temple Mount.

It was not clear how much damage there was at the mosque. Israeli police had dispersed dozens of masked Palestinians who threw rocks and firecrackers near the site in the Old City ahead of a visit by a group of Jewish activists.

Neighboring Jordan recalled its ambassador to Israel for consultations in a strong protest of the police action at the site and filed a complaint to the U.N. Security Council. Under an arrangement with Israel, Jordan has custodial rights over Muslim holy sites in the Old City, which includes the Al-Aqsa Mosque.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry condemned what he called “the terrorist attack in Jerusalem,” and added that “the confrontation at the Al-Aqsa Mosque is also of particular concern.”

“Holy sites should not become the sites of tension, and concrete steps need to be taken now by all sides to de-escalate this situation,” Kerry said, noting that the U.S. was in touch with both Jordan and Israel and hoped that “all parties will draw back and reduce these tensions.”

He spoke after meeting with Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh in Paris, where Kerry said they discussed the tensions across Jerusalem.

The developments raised fears of worsening violence after months of simmering

Obama seeks $6.2 billion for Ebola fight The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Wednesday asked Congress for $6.2 billion in emergency funds to confront Ebola at its source in West Africa and to secure the United States against any possible spread.

Of the total, $2 billion would be apportioned to the U.S. Agency for International Development and $2.4 billion would go to the Department of Health and Human Services, the White House said.

More than $1.5 billion would be for a contingency fund to deal with any unanticipated developments like the need to vaccinate U.S. health care workers.

The Ebola money is the first request from Obama in the aftermath of an election that ushered in a Republicancontrolled Congress, which is being seen as a repudiation of the president.

The White House is asking for prompt action, meaning it wants approval during the current lame duck session, while Democrats are still in control of the Senate.

It wants the money on an “emergency” basis, meaning it should be added to the deficit. Republicans, if they agree the money is needed, may press for spending cuts elsewhere in the budget.

The $4.64 billion, which also includes about $240 million split between the Pentagon and the Department of State, would be used to strengthen the public health system in the U.S., combat the epidemic in West Africa, and speed up the development and testing of vaccines.

Wednesday’s spending request is in addition to steps the administration already has taken to attack the disease in Africa and to set up a defense in the U.S. Obama has authorized the Pentagon to deploy up to 4,000 service members to West Africa to build Ebola treatment units, a hospital for infected health care workers in the afflicted region and training for communities in how to conduct safe burials of victims.

tensions in the holy city and injected new religious fervor into a wave of unrest fueled by failed peace efforts and stepped-up Jewish settlement construction.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu blamed the Jerusalem attack on incitement stemming from Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and “his Hamas partners,” a reference to a unity government led by Abbas and backed by the Islamic militant group.

“We are in a prolonged battle in Jerusalem. I have no doubt we will win. We are deploying all the necessary forces to restore calm and security to all parts of the city but it may certainly be a prolonged struggle,” he said.

Israel has been trying for months to quell the unrest in east Jerusalem that began this summer but has surged over tensions surrounding the holy site.

In Wednesday’s attack in Jerusalem, police said the motorist drove the minivan into pedestrians waiting for the train at a stop. The driver backed out and drove away, hitting several cars along the way. He then got out of the van and attacked civilians and police officers on the side of the road with a metal bar before he was shot and killed.

Police said al-Akari had recently been released from prison after serving time

for security offenses. His wife, Amira Soultan, told The Associated Press that he was inspired by the violence he saw at the mosque.

“He saw how the carpet of Al-Aqsa was burned. He saw it on his laptop, on Facebook and he went out,” she said.

The apparent attack in the southern West Bank took place after dark Wednesday, and few details were released by the Israeli military.

Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip, praised Wednesday’s violence as a “glorious operation” and called for more.

The group said al-Akari was a member, and that his brother was in exile in Turkey after being released in a 2011 prisoner swap.

Hamas’ West Bank commander, Saleh Arouri, is based in Turkey.

In a statement, Nabil Abu Rdeneh, a spokesman for Abbas, also condemned the police actions at the holy site but made no mention of the car attack.

The Old City’s holy site has been beset in recent weeks by clashes between Palestinians and Israeli police.

Police say the aim of the unrest was to prevent the visits of non-Muslims to the site. Palestinians see the visits as a provocation and fear Israel is secretly plotting to take over the site.

of keeping the speaker’s chair.

In addition, the House in January will have 18 freshmen, 11 of them Republicans. None of the newcomers will contend for a leadership position.

At least one outspoken House member already says the speaker’s job should go to Tripp, 68, who has served in the House for 16 years and runs jewelry and contracting businesses.

Rep. Candy Ezzell, R-Roswell, said she already is committed to voting for Tripp.

“He is such a good man,” she said.

In an era of mean politics, Tripp’s reputation is that of a legislator who is knowledgeable, thoughtful and civil, Ezzell said.

Rep. Larry Larrañaga, R-Albuquerque, said other House colleagues have asked him to run for speaker. He said in a phone interview that he is weighing his options.

“I’m really kind of sitting back.

Everything is open for me,” he said of leadership positions and committee assignments.

Larrañaga, 69, a member of the House for 20 years, said he became accustomed to being in the minority

Martinez repeatedly has declared that she has no desire to seek higher office — even though several national pundits have said she’ll be high on virtually any GOP presidential contender’s list of potential running mates. This usually comes with mention of her status as a Hispanic woman elected in a Democratic-leaning state.

At least twice during the recent campaign, including once in a televised debate with King, Martinez said point blank that she’d refuse a spot on a national ticket even if she is offered one. She repeated in an interview aired Wednesday on KOB-TV that she intends to serve out all of her new four-year term.

Of course, her easy victory Tuesday most likely will only fuel the national chatter about Martinez as a vice presidential candidate.

Late Tuesday, Mother Jones — a left-wing magazine that earlier this year published a scathing profile of Martinez — published a story with the headline, “New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez Wins Big. Is She the GOP’s Top Pick for Veep?”

“After her easy victory over Democratic Attorney General Gary King on Tuesday,” the story said, “expect to hear a whole lot more about Marti-

Late Tuesday, “Mother Jones” — a left-wing magazine — published a story with the headline, “New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez Wins Big. Is She the GOP’s Top Pick for Veep?”

nez’s national potential.”

Also late Tuesday, the conservative National Review, noting Martinez’s re-election, described her as “a popular Hispanic governor [who] is considered a possible vice-presidential pick for Republicans in 2016, or maybe even a dark-horse White House contender herself.”

And Fox News Latino, while noting Martinez’s pledge to serve her full fouryear term, said, “The kind of appeal Martinez has been able to sustain among Latinos and voters who are not registered Republicans are qualities the GOP has indicated it would like in a presidential candidate in 2016.”

While Martinez herself didn’t directly mention anything about the 2016 election in her victory speech, she took notice that a national audience was watching.

“I understand that a lot of people will be looking at New Mexico tonight — talking about what it means to have the nation’s first Hispanic female governor win a second term,” she said.

“A Republican, no less, in a heavily Democratic state.

“And yes, it does mean something to me personally. While no one should ever be entirely defined by our race or our background, I am proud of what this means to people of Hispanic descent here in New Mexico and around the country. As I’ve said before, ‘En America, todo es posible’ [In America, everything is possible].”

party that never had the votes to elect the speaker.

In addition to Tripp and Larrañaga, other lawmakers have mentioned two younger Republican House members as potential contenders for leadership positions.

They are Reps. Dennis Roch, 41, the school superintendent in Logan, and Nate Gentry, 39, an attorney from Albuquerque.

An advocacy group that ran negative ads against Gentry during his reelection campaign hoped to damage his chances of becoming speaker if he kept his seat.

As for Roch, he has told other legislators that he intends to run for House majority leader, the No. 2 job behind the speaker.

Smith said this decision by Roch makes sense. Roch would not have the time to run a school district and meet all the demands of being House speaker, said Smith, a retired teacher.

Roch did not respond Wednesday to requests for an interview.

Another Republican, Rep. David Gallegos of Eunice, said the GOP should consider a more bipartisan structure in which the majority party does not hog all the power.

The speaker of the House picks the chairmen of 15 standing committees.

Gallegos said the Republican speaker, whoever it is, ought to consider appointing Democrats to some chairmanships or at least vice chairmanships.

For instance, Gallegos said, it might be a smart move to let Democratic Rep. Luciano “Lucky” Varela of Santa Fe remain as chairman of the Legislative Finance Committee.

“We ought to do things different, do right by the state and take advantage of the institutional knowledge that exists,” Gallegos said.

But he admitted there is almost no chance of a newly empowered Republican speaker picking Democrats to chair any committees.

“I’ve mentioned my idea. It’s not been received well, but I want to look at the big picture,” Gallegos said.

With Republican members jockeying for power, Rep. Kenny Martinez, D-Grants, knows that his days as speaker of the House are coming to an end.

Martinez was speaker for the last two years. The job was especially important to him because his late father, Walter K. Martinez, was House

speaker in the 1970s, when Kenny Martinez was in high school.

In a statement Wednesday, Martinez said the election was “a very difficult evening” for House Democrats and Democratic candidates.

“I look forward not only to working alongside my fellow House members to ensure that working New Mexicans remain a priority, but also rebuilding our chamber so that responsible governance may prevail. It’s now time to roll up our sleeves and continue the fight to better our state,” Martinez said.

Rep.-elect Matthew McQueen of Galisteo, the only Democrat to defeat an incumbent Republican in this year’s House elections, said he had been certain he would take office with Martinez as the speaker.

After 60 years of Democratic control in the New Mexico House, McQueen said, he was surprised by Tuesday’s turnabout.

“I never thought I’d be coming in as a member of the minority party,” he said.

However, this does not mean anyone should think that Martinez will shy away from controversial issues that raise partisan hackles — including some of the same battles that marked her first term. Having GOP control of the House should embolden the administration.

During the campaign, she once again raised the issue of repealing the 2003 law that allows the state to issue driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants. And with Martinez talking about reforming education in her speech Tuesday, it’s a sure bet that she’ll try again to pass a bill requiring third-graders who can’t pass reading tests to be held back until they can read at grade level.

The start of a second term often is a time in which a governor makes changes in key staff members or Cabinet secretaries. If that’s going to happen in the next Martinez administration, nobody is talking publicly about it at this early stage.

Martinez’s chief of staff, Keith Gardner, who has been in that job since the outset of the administration, told a reporter Tuesday night that he would like to stay on. But, as far as possible changes go, he said, “We’re going to have to sit down and evaluate everything.”

matic recount is required.

While several factors hurt Powell at the polls, he believes the Dixon Apple Orchard played a big role in his likely defeat.

The Dixon Apple Orchard was a decades-old farm on state trust land near Cochiti Pueblo that was devastated by a wildfire and subsequent flooding in 2011. Jim and Becky Mullane, the couple who had leased the land from the state, had managed the orchard for more than two decades.

The land was given by its owner to The University of New Mexico, which later traded the property for prime commercial state trust land near Mesa del Sol in southeast Albuquerque in an agreement signed off on by Powell’s predecessor, Republican Pat Lyons.

After the orchard operation was devastated by fire and flood, the couple landed in a court battle with Powell over who should take over their lease. Ultimately, the sides settled, with Cochiti Pueblo paying the couple $1.8 million for the lease. The lease includes 8,500 acres that contain sites important to the pueblo’s traditions but are otherwise of little commercial value, according to Powell’s staff.

Dunn ran TV ads and commentary on his website from the Mullane family, blaming Powell for ruining the orchard and hurting the family, ads that tugged at the heartstrings of people with emotional attachments to the place.

“In early polling in September, I was up by 14 points,” Powell said. That advantage eroded steadily as Dunn repeated the apple orchard ads. By mid-October, pollsters predicted Dunn winning by one percentage point.

“I think, fundamentally, it was my opponent’s representation of what hap-

pened with the Dixon Apple Orchard that hurt us, and they had funding to run ads,” Powell said. “I didn’t have the funds to respond quickly enough. The ads were a complete misrepresentation of what happened.”

Dunn’s son and campaign manager, Blair Dunn, said he thinks other things swayed voters, but he agrees the negative campaign strategy worked in this case. He said his father’s campaign promise to manage state lands differently also swayed voters.

Sportsmen are taking a wait-andsee attitude. They had a less-thancongenial relationship with the last Republican state land commissioner, Patrick Lyons, who now serves on the state Public Regulation Commission.

The New Mexico Wildlife Federation blamed Lyons for making trust land deals and leases with private ranchers that hurt public land hunters and restricted their access. They also are concerned about Dunn’s support for transferring federal Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management properties wholesale to state control, an idea gaining traction among political conservatives around the West.

“I think we’re cautiously optimistic that Aubrey’s interests are in sportsmen’s best interest,” said Garrett VeneKlasen, executive director of the New Mexico Wildlife Federation. “Ray was very proactive about trying to open up access for sportsmen to federal lands through state lands. He had a sportsmen advisory board. He was very sportsmen centric. I hope Aubrey will be the same way.”

VeneKlasen is among several sportsmen who’ve said their biggest concern with Dunn is his support for transferring federal land to the state.

“The fiscal challenges of managing

that large a landscape are not doable for the state,” VeneKlasen said.

Though Dunn has said his aim is not to privatize public or state trust lands, VeneKlasen and other sportsmen aren’t convinced yet. VeneKlasen said the State Land Office already has sold off more than 4 million acres of the state trust land little by little over the past several decades, substantially reducing long-term income from the property.

“That was our legacy and our children’s inheritance. The idea of seeing it privatized is a scary thought,” VeneKlasen said. “But we’re going to give Aubrey the benefit of the doubt.”

Cheering Dunn’s win was Rep. Yvette Herrell, R-Alamogordo, who has twice introduced legislation to study the transfer of federal land to state control. “Praise God!” said Herrell in an email to Dunn. “You just made my day!”

Herrell said Dunn will support a federal lands study bill and will open up access to forests for thinning and other uses.

“We haven’t had much cooperation with the current land office,” Herrell said. “I think Dunn understands we should look at the big picture of what we can do to manage our own lands in the state in addition to the federal lands. We know we can do a better job of managing the forests than the federal government.”

More than a century of logging, grazing and putting out all wildfires contributed to the current state of unhealthy forests packed with skinny trees, according to many studies and forest managers. Drought and climate change haven’t helped the conditions in millions of acres of New Mexico forest lands, which have experienced

historically large and intense wildfires in the last few years. Thinning the forests is expensive and requires a market for less commercially viable logs.

Herrell said people in Southern New Mexico also were upset with Powell over his support for President Barack Obama’s effort to designate half a million acres of land as the Organ Mountains-Desert Peaks National Monument.

Powell said whatever happens, he is proud of his staff members and the work they have done. “We have been transparent and open,” he said. “I don’t think the Land Office has ever run as well.”

Under Powell’s tenure, and with the help of beefed-up oil prices, the State Land Office earned a record amount of revenue since the beginning of his term for public schools and colleges that benefit from state trust land revenues. Powell’s staff also secured leases for several renewable energy projects, part of his push to diversify energy sources and revenues from trust lands.

He also held oil and gas companies accountable for underpaying royalties.

Powell said 11 upper administration positions, including his, out of 156 staff are at-will positions, and those state workers likely will be replaced if Dunn becomes land commissioner.

“I expect that New Mexicans will hold me accountable for better land management,” Dunn said. “I am looking forward to practicing true conservation for New Mexico, caring for our lands while creating more jobs for New Mexicans that will fund for our children’s education.”

Duran wins re-election in tight race

Republicans gain with Latinos in key races

The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Secretary of State Dianna Duran won a second term Tuesday by fending off a strong challenge from Democrat Maggie Toulouse Oliver and became the first Republican in New Mexico history to win re-election for the seat.

In a race that centered on voter ID and nonbinding marijuana questions in two populous counties, Duran captured 52 percent of the vote over Oliver’s 48 percent, unofficial numbers showed.

The contest also focused on Duran’s style of election management and her efforts to combat what she sees as widespread voter fraud.

But Duran credited her win to her support for new voter ID measures. “I have over 30 years of experience of elections administration,” Duran said. “My primary objective is to ensure the integrity of the electoral process.”

Now with the first Republican State House in 60 years, the chances of passing a voter ID bill now is a real possibility, she said.

“This is probably the first year that we will see we have a better chance to get it through the House and the Senate and to the governor’s desk,” Duran said.

Oliver, the Bernalillo County clerk, argued that voter fraud was rare and voter ID efforts would only prevent certain residents from casting ballots.

“We’re 50 years from the Voting Rights Act, and we’re still fighting this. That’s wrong,” Oliver said.

Instead, Oliver had advocated for sameday registration as a way to increase voter participation in the state.

In the race for state auditor, Democratic state Sen. Timothy Keller defeated Republican lawyer Robert Aragon on Tuesday in a race that centered on how the State Auditor’s Office should monitor government waste. Unofficial results showed that Keller captured 54 percent of the vote to Aragon’s 46 percent.

Democrat Tim Eichenberg edged out Republican Rick Lopez in a race for an open state treasurer seat.

Democrat Sandy Jones was elected to the District 5 seat on the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission. Unofficial results showed that Jones won 51 percent of the vote to Republican incumbent Ben Hall’s 49 percent.

It was the only contested seat on regulatory panel, which oversees public utilities, telecommunications and insurance companies.

Jones, the former owner of a construction company, captured his old seat and promised to help bring jobs to the state and push for the commission to regulate itself.

Hall, a Ruidoso businessman, had said he would continue to work to simplify commission rules and regulations and to reorganize the agency. But Hall drew scrutiny after he admitted he had used nearly $7,000 of public campaign financing to pay himself.

The Public Regulation Commission district stretches from Los Lunas south to Doña Ana County and west to Arizona.

Obama vows to ‘get the job done’

By Julie Hirschfeld Davis and Michael D. Shear The New York Times

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama on Wednesday said he had heard the message voters sent on Election Day and was ready to work with Republicans who dealt his party devastating losses. Even so, he promised to go forward with unilateral action on immigration despite strong Republican opposition.

“It’s time for us to take care of business,” Obama said at a news conference in the East Room of the White House, where he called for immediate action

by Congress on a request for emergency funding to combat Ebola and a measure to authorize military action against the terrorist group calling itself the Islamic State.

“The American people sent a message — one that they’ve sent for several elections now. They expect the people they elect to work as hard as they do,” Obama. “They want us to get the job done.”

The president said he would be willing to compromise with Republicans on trade, corporate tax reform and infrastructure spending, but said he would not back down from his promise to act on his own to overhaul the immigration system despite vocal Republican opposition.

“Before the end of the year, we’re going to take whatever lawful action that I can take,” Obama said, arguing that Republicans could negate those moves if they passed a broader immigration bill. “I am eager to see what they have to offer, but what I’m not going to do is just wait.”

It was an indication of the limits of Obama’s willingness to change course in the aftermath of an election that dealt Democrats crushing blows across the country. Obama, his legacy on the line, now must pivot to governing in a more hostile environment, with Republicans controlling the Congress and with his power on the wane.

In his own news conference in Louisville, Ky., Sen. Mitch McConnell, who is likely to lead the new Republican majority in the Senate next year, vowed a spirit of cooperation and compromise with Obama

even as he cautioned that a more starkly divided government in Washington would inevitably lead to sharp partisan disagreements.

“When the American people choose divided government, I don’t think it means they don’t want us to do anything,” McConnell told reporters in his first news conference since his party trounced Democrats in Tuesday’s elections. “We ought to start with the view that maybe there are some things we can agree on to make progress for the country.”

The full magnitude of the Republican Party’s success in reshaping the national political landscape at Obama’s expense became clearer Wednesday as the party seemed headed toward an even longer list of electoral victories in Senate and governor races that had been too close to call.

In Alaska, the winner of the Senate race remained uncertain Wednesday, though the Republican candidate, Dan Sullivan, moved into a small lead in the vote count and appeared poised to oust Sen. Mark Begich, a Democrat. A victory by Sullivan would further whittle away Obama’s support in a Senate that has for years served as the president’s bulwark in Congress against the Republican-controlled House.

If Sullivan wins and Republicans succeed in ousting Sen. Mary Landrieu in Louisiana in a runoff election next month, Republicans would command a 54-vote majority in the Senate, a gain of nine seats and an almost complete turnaround from the current chamber, where Democrats control 55 seats.

In Virginia, Sen. Mark Warner, a Democrat, was slightly ahead in the vote count in his bid for reelection, but his Republican challenger, Ed Gillespie, a former lobbyist and Republican political adviser, was within less than a percentage point and could request a recount in that state.

In Colorado, Gov. John W. Hickenlooper, a Democrat, narrowly clinched a second term early Wednesday, fending off an unexpectedly tough challenge from a Republican congressman who accused the governor of yanking Colorado too far left on gun control, energy and taxes.

Congress: Senate GOP could use ‘reconciliation’ Continued from Page A-1 ers and putting pressure on Obama to compromise or risk drawing his own charges of obstructionism.

According to three Republicans who requested anonymity to speak freely about the talks, Boehner and McConnell plan to roll that agenda out over the next few weeks in a series of joint appearances, joint memos and joint op-ed articles — including in The Wall Street Journal on Thursday — promoting their decision to work together.

“Our fortunes are tied,” said Sen. John Thune, R-S.D., who chairs the Senate GOP conference. “We’ve got to hang together, and that approach starts at the top with Mitch and Boehner.”

At the center of these discussions is a desire to avoid the kind of intra-party drama that has roiled Washington since 2011, when Republicans took control of the House with a freshman class dominated by tea party conservatives.

Elated by Tuesday’s election results, Republicans remain burdened by the shutdown of the federal government last year, which sullied the party’s brand. And they still face the prospect of managing an unruly right-flank more interested in challenging Obama than in following leadership’s playbook.

Pressure to follow through on the party’s most conservative priorities was already building Wednesday.

Several tea party leaders gathered at the National Press Club and reiterated their demand that repealing the Affordable Care Act remain the party’s priority. In a memo, Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, also emphasized the health care law as a top target.

“Now is the time to go after and

A-5

do everything humanly possible to repeal Obamacare,” Cruz said in a speech late Tuesday in Texas.

Even the National Review, a magazine popular with the conservative elite, warned McConnell to not forget the activists and grass-roots conservatives who lifted him to power.

“With all due respect to the senator and like-minded Republicans, this course of action makes no sense as a political strategy,” the editors wrote.

Though tax reform and trade are good ideas, they wrote, “voters are not, in fact, waiting anxiously for any of this. Business lobbies are.”

But other Republicans said McConnell and Boehner face a political imperative to establish themselves as leaders who can govern effectively.

“There’s a real incentive to put things on the president’s desk that are reasonable,” said Glenn Hubbard, the chief economist in the George W. Bush White House and a top adviser to Mitt Romney’s 2012 presidential campaign.

“He may not sign them all. But the hope is he would sign some of them.”

In the House, where GOP leaders have been plagued by conservative defectors, Boehner stands a good chance of consolidating his authority given his gains at the polls, said Sen. Richard Burr, R-N.C., a close friend of Boehner’s. Republicans will number at least 243 in January — a gain of 14 — the biggest House GOP majority since the Truman administration.

Boehner “can sell himself as someone who was able to win and who is able to work with the Republican Senate,” Burr said. “That’s going to hopefully create some more trust among people in the House and create a desire to govern.”

Managing the new Senate majority could also be a challenge. In addition

to Cruz, McConnell faces the prospect of as many as 24 Republican senators running for re-election or retiring in 2016 — nearly half a conference that could number 54 members. Many, such as Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania and Rob Portman of Ohio, will be running in purple states and possibly be reluctant to take tough votes.

On the other hand, the class of Senate Republicans elected Tuesday may make McConnell’s job easier.

Confidantes say McConnell so far has few concerns about the newcomers and believes most are inclined to work with him. Several were able to overcome tea party insurgents in the primaries, and therefore do not fear the wrath of activists as much as some Capitol Hill veterans.

The class includes Rep. Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, a longtime Boehner ally in the House.

Mike Rounds of South Dakota is a former governor. And Iowa state senator Joni Ernst was backed by her state’s Republican establishment.

“You know, I think the gridlock is going to end,” Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said in an interview Wednesday. “Senator McConnell knows how to make the Senate work, and I think he’ll make us a bigger party, a better party, by … crafting bipartisan legislation.”

Paul, who is widely expected to seek the Republican presidential nomination in 2016, warned that conservative firebrands in both chambers should not expect the new GOP Senate to pursue an aggressive agenda on every front. “The House needs to realize that to pass anything, we’ll need 60 votes in the Senate, and getting there is the obstacle,” he said.

Indeed, the very Democrats most likely to vote with Republicans were the ones who fell to defeat on Tues-

day. With moderate Democrats such as Mark Pryor of Arkansas, Mark Begich of Alaska and Mark Udall of Colorado gone, Republicans will find a much smaller pool of potential allies when they reach across the aisle.

To overcome that hurdle, Republicans plan to advance narrow legislation that already has some Democratic support. While pursuing a quixotic campaign to repeal the Affordable Care Act, for example, GOP leaders are discussing more limited efforts to undermine the law, such as watering down a requirement that employers offer full-time workers coverage, which takes effect in January. The administration has already delayed portions of the mandate.

They could also try to change the definition of a full-time worker from someone who works at least 30 hours a week to someone who works at least 40 hours a week, another proposal likely to draw Democratic support.

For more ambitious legislation, senior Republicans are discussing a fast-track procedure known as “reconciliation,” which would permit them to push a measure through the Senate with just 51 votes. Among the targets under consideration: Tax reform, cuts to Medicare benefits and an increase in the federal debt limit.

But former Sen. Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, the last Republican to pass a reconciliation bill, said he is warning friends in the Senate that the procedure is politically dangerous unless the president is willing to sign the resulting measure into law.

“A lot of people out there seem to think it’s a magic bullet. It’s not,” Gregg said. “The magic bullet is a bipartisan bill. That’s how you do it without causing yourself huge political damage.”

Hispanics voted nearly 2-to-1 for Democratic candidates on Tuesday just as they did in the 2010 midterm elections, a national exit poll shows, but in a number of key races they voted more heavily Republican, pointing to a strategy for Republicans in the presidential contest in 2016.

In the Senate race in Colorado, for example, where Latinos make up 14 percent of voters, a conservative Republican, Cory Gardner, took the seat of the incumbent Democrat, Mark Udall, in what analysts from both parties called a Republican playbook on how to blunt the Democrats’ advantage with Hispanics. Gardner generally avoided the contentious issue of immigration but campaigned in Latino neighborhoods with a message of job creation and smaller government.

“We had better candidates this year, who were talking about the issues that people care about and doing it in a way that did not alienate any group,” said Luis G. Fortuño, the former governor of Puerto Rico who is a member of the Republican National Committee.

Republicans said the glide to re-election of two Hispanic Republican governors in states with large Hispanic populations — Susana Martinez in New Mexico and Brian Sandoval in Nevada — also showed the party’s ability to succeed with those voters when it runs strong candidates.

In Texas, the state with the secondlargest Hispanic population — 17 percent of the electorate — Greg Abbott, the Republican who defeated an underdog campaign for governor by Wendy Davis, a Democrat, won 44 percent of the Hispanic vote, while Davis took 55 percent. In 2010, Gov. Rick Perry, also a Republican, won his race with 38 percent of Latinos.

In Georgia, where a small but rapidly growing population of Hispanic citizens now represents 4 percent of voters, Gov. Nathan Deal, a Republican, was re-elected, winning 47 percent of Hispanic voters while his Democratic challenger received 53 percent. In the hard-fought Senate race in Georgia, David Perdue, a conservative Republican businessman, received 42 percent of the Latino votes while his Democratic opponent, Michelle Nunn, got 57 percent.

In Kansas, Gov. Sam Brownback, a conservative Republican who had been under fire even from some in his own party for sharp tax cuts, received 47 percent of the Latino vote, while his Democratic challenger, Paul Davis, won 46 percent.

The exit polls were conducted by Edison Research for the television networks and The Associated Press.

In the presidential race in 2012, Mitt Romney won only 27 percent of the Hispanic vote, while President Barack Obama was re-elected with 71 percent.

Some analysts faulted Democratic campaigns for the changes.

In Colorado, Udall baffled many of his Democratic supporters and Latino organizations in the state by failing to reach out to Hispanics until the final days of the race.

“It was a real miscalculation by the Udall campaign not to make immigration reform and the lack of movement on that issue part of his campaign,” said Arturo Vargas, executive director of the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials, a bipartisan organization. In an election eve poll by Latino Decisions, a research group, a plurality of 45 percent of Latino voters nationwide said immigration was the most important issue for their communities that politicians should address.

Latino strategists and Democrats said the results would place new pressure on Obama to take broad executive action to give protection from deportation for immigrants in the country illegally. At a White House news conference Wednesday, Obama repeated his intention to unveil those measures before the end of the year. Earlier in the fall, he postponed his announcement, responding to the fears of endangered Democrats in Senate races that it could thrust a toxic issue into their campaigns.

The president’s delay contributed to the lackluster interest among Latinos in the elections, said Gary M. Segura, a principal at Latino Decisions and a political-science professor at Stanford University.

“The president made a significant bet against Latinos this year and he lost,” Segura said. Without some action on immigration under Obama, Democrats would risk greater losses among Hispanics in 2016, Segura said.

ELECTIONS 2014

N.M. voter turnout falls sharply Voters remove the Democratic Party of New Mexico, said voters felt “disengaged” because of the state of the economy.

“I’m not going to jump on the bandwagon kicking at Gary King at this point,” he said.

The state Democratic Party spent $2 million “in a coordinated campaign” to encourage people to get to the polls, Bregman said.

“We always know that there’s a downwards from an off-presidential year, but this was more than in the past,” he said. “For whatever reason, a large part of people just didn’t feel like it would make a difference in their vote, and that’s too bad.”

According to the Pew Research Center, voter turnout has dropped consistently in midterm elections since the 1840s.

“We’ll go out on a limb on two predictions,” Pew senior writer Drew DeSilver wrote in July. “A lot fewer people will vote this year than did in 2012, and Democrats are likely to suffer accordingly.”

The low voter turnout rate wasn’t unique to New Mexico.

Michael McDonald, an associate political science professor at the University of Florida who compiles voter turnout data based on the voting-eligible population, said turnout was down in almost every state.

“There is still uncertainty about the numbers” because results haven’t been finalized and certified, he said.

“But if they stick, it’ll be below the 1988 turnout rate of 38 percent, and you’d have to go back all the way to 1942 to get a turnout rate of 34 percent to find the next lowest turnout rate,” he said.

40% cast ballots in midterm election

By Daniel J. Chacón The New Mexican

Voter turnout in New Mexico’s general election Tuesday was down significantly from recent midterm elections and represents the lowest participation rate in decades.

Unofficial, incomplete returns show that about 511,000 voters out of the 1.28 million listed on voter registration rolls cast ballots, representing a turnout of 40 percent.

In New Mexico’s three previous midterm elections in 2010, 2006 and 2002, turnout was in the 52 percent to 53 percent range.

Albuquerque pollster Brian Sanderoff said Wednesday that more voters went to the polls four years ago because there were several high-profile competitive races — for governor and congressional seats.

This year, in contrast, Democrats lacked the same enthusiasm for their lineup of candidates, he said. Polls showed Martinez leading throughout her race against Democratic challenger Gary King. The most competitive races were for lower-profile offices farther down the ballot — secretary of state, land commissioner and localized legislative contests. A flood of hard-hitting attack ads also may have depressed turnout by frustrating voters and causing them to tune out the election.

“All the ingredients were there for low turnout — and it happened,” Sanderoff said.

Lonna Atkeson, a political science professor at The University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, also speculated that some lopsided polling numbers might have been a factor in lower turnout this time, but she said another factor might have been some disappointment

related to politics in general.

The main factor may have been voters’ “dissatisfaction with our politics and the outcomes,” she said. “Obama inspired people to have hope, and when he didn’t come through, the expectations were so high that the gap between the expectations and reality presented people with such cognitive disassociation.”

Atkeson called it an “ongoing theme in American politics” because of the separation of powers. The president comes out of an election like he’s “Superman,” but reality quickly sets in, especially when there’s a divided House, she said.

“He makes promises that he can’t actually meet because he doesn’t have the institutional power, and this is an ongoing crisis for our presidency. This happens for all of them,” she said. “I think the expectation gap was bigger for Obama, so it’s a bigger impact.”

Atkeson said voters also may have believed that some races were predetermined and that their vote didn’t count. “That could be an important psychological factor to voters,” she

said. “We basically told them again and again, ‘This race is over. This race is over.’ ” In the gubernatorial race, polling consistently showed incumbent Gov. Susana Martinez comfortably ahead of Democratic challenger Gary King, the state attorney general and son of a former governor.

“There’s some evidence to suggest that when the race is close, that people turn out more. So the opposite therefore must be true, that when there’s no chance, then there’s less turnout,” Atkeson said. “I think that really hit home more in this contest.”

Emily Strickler, a spokeswoman for the Republican Party of New Mexico, agreed, saying even Democrats were talking about having to drag their friends to the polls.

“I don’t think the base of the Democratic Party, I don’t think they even wanted Gary King as their candidate,” she said. “I think a lot of people saw it as a done deal. The polls are showing him down. What’s the point of going to the polls? That’s definitely one take on it.”

DA: Rape charge dropped due to victim’s health Man accused of attack found by DNA evidence

By Uriel J. Garcia The New Mexican

Prosecutors on Tuesday asked the state District Court to dismiss charges against a former Santa Fe man accused of raping a woman in 1991 because the alleged victim is “medically incapable of traveling to New Mexico” to testify against him.

David Anthony Garcia, 48, is accused of forcing the woman into his

red van and raping her near Franklin Miles Park.

Twenty-three years after the alleged assault, local police matched Garcia’s DNA to results in a national database, David and in September Anthony 2013 he was arrested Garcia at his home in Roach, Mo., on charges of criminal sexual penetration and kidnapping. He was extradited to New Mexico.

District Attorney Angela “Spence”

Pacheco said after conversations with the woman, now 62 and living in Colorado, and her doctors, “This was the best resolution for the case.”

Pacheco declined to specify the woman’s medical condition but did say, “It was a very difficult decision for her to make.”

Garcia’s public defender, Sydney West, didn’t return a phone call seeking comment.

Garcia’s DNA was stored in a freezer full of “rape kits” that contain DNA collected from victims in unsolved cases going back to the 1980s. Because of advances in DNA

testing and analysis, detectives were re-examining the old evidence in summer 2013.

Garcia’s DNA was on file because he had been convicted of a felony domestic assault in Camden County, Mo., in 2002.

After finding the “hit,” the Santa Fe Police Department contacted the Camden County Sheriff’s Office, and that agency, working with the U.S. Marshals Service, arrested Garcia at his home without incident.

During interviews with Santa Fe authorities last year, the woman said she “remembered the story as clear as

day, as clear as she had given it to us the first time.”

Celina Espinoza, a spokeswoman for the Santa Fe Police Department, said in September 2013 that the woman told detectives she had walked by Franklin Miles Park, at Camino Carlos Rey and Siringo Road, twice the day she was raped — once on her way to work at a nursing home and once on her way home. Espinoza said the woman had seen the red van both times “but didn’t think anything of it.”

On her way home from work, she

Resort plans to have slopes covered for Thanksgiving Day opening

By Anne Constable The New Mexican

T

he high temperature at the base of Taos Ski Valley was predicted to be 51 degrees Wednesday. No real snow is expected in the next week.

Forecasts are for sunny skies.

Nevertheless, crews began making snow last weekend in preparation for opening day, scheduled for Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 27.

Over the summer, the Taos Ski Valley made a $700,000 investment in snowmaking capacity, which means the top of the mountain will open earlier this season. The goal is for all lifts to be operating by Christmas.

Instead of taking 10 weeks to put snow on about 400 acres, it will take eight because of two new energy-efficient compressors.

“We’re not going to increase the amount of snow we make [or the water used],” CEO Gordon Briner said in September. “We’re just

INSIDE u Taos Ski Valley plans to host a Freeride World Tour qualifier in February. PAGE B-5

going to put that water on the slopes faster.”

Lifts are scheduled to run from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Thursday through Sunday from Nov. 27 to Dec. 7. After that, the area will open daily beginning Dec. 11.

Taos Ski Valley also is opening a new fixed-grip lift this season that will take riders to the 12,450-foot Kachina Peak for the first time.

Previously, skiers and boarders had to hike there to ski the ungroomed slopes.

These improvements are part of an ongoing overhaul at Taos Ski Valley, which has made few major improvements in the last 20 years.

In September, Taos Ski Valley Inc. announced it is purchasing the Bavarian

Lodge & Restaurant at the base of Lift 4. The 2.5-acre property includes the lodge, restaurant and chalets.

In December 2013, the Blake family, which founded the ski area for nearly 60 years ago, announced the sale of the resort to billionaire Louis Bacon.

The resort also is in the first phase of a major remodel of its base area.

The snow guns are operating at Sipapu as well, although temperatures are high there, too. Typically, Sipapu crews are looking for temperatures of around 28 degrees to make snow. It is scheduled to open Nov. 15.

Angel Fire announced it had made some snow amid some flurries of the real stuff Nov. 3 and is planning to open Dec. 12.

Wolf Creek Ski Area is kicking off its 75th season by opening on weekends starting Saturday.

Conditions are very limited, with a 6-inch base and 14 inches of snow.

A judge on Tuesday ordered that a Santa Fe man known as “El Dentista” remain in jail until his trial for having unapproved contact with a former patient expected to testify against him.

Eliver Kestler, 37, is facing charges including practicing dentistry without a license in connection with what police say was an unsanctioned mobile dentistry service he had been operating for five years.

During a court hearing Tuesday, Blanca Castillo, a woman who had received dental services from Kestler, said he threatened her when she unexpectedly ran into him at an Airport Road grocery store Oct. 15.

He had been released from custody earlier that day after posting a $5,000 surety bond.

One of the conditions of Kestler’s release was that he have no contact with former patients who might be called to testify about his dental work. He was back in jail the same day.

Assistant District Attorney Peter Valencia said Kestler was supposed to go straight home after being released, “so he wasn’t even supposed to be at the grocery store.”

State District Court Judge Glenn Ellingham on Tuesday raised his bond to $250,000, cash only. If Kestler meets the bond, he would still have to be on electronic monitoring.

Police arrested Kestler in April 2013 after authori-

Martinez renews work plan for food stamps Administration restarting process challenged in court

By Barry Massey The Associated Press

ALBUQUERQUE — Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration announced Wednesday that it will redo a plan for imposing work requirements on low-income New Mexicans to qualify for food stamps.

Human Services spokesman Matt Kennicott said the state won’t proceed with regulations it had hoped to implement this month.

Instead, the administration will restart the regulatory process but propose the same work-related changes that have been challenged in court.

A state district judge last week temporarily blocked the Human Services Department from implementing new regulations affecting about 80,000 food stamp recipients.

The state was sued by social services advocates who contended that the agency didn’t follow proper procedures for adopting regulations to the food stamp program.

“We hope that this will lead to increased transparency and accountability from the New Mexico Human Services Department, especially when they are making ill-considered changes to our state’s most effective program for fightGov. Susana ing hunger,” Gail Evans, Martinez legal director from the New Mexico Center on Law and Poverty, said of the department’s decision.

Kennicott said the state hoped to avoid a potentially costly legal fight by starting over on the food stamp changes. That means issuing a new public notice of its regulatory proposals and holding a hearing for comment from New Mexicans before adopting new regulations governing eligibility for food stamps.

He emphasized that the administration wasn’t retreating from its plan to impose work-related requirements.

“Requiring those receiving public assistance to look for work, engage in job training,

The state was sued by social services advocates who contended that the agency didn’t follow proper procedures for adopting regulations. or obtain employment is common sense. We are trying to lift New Mexicans out of poverty,” Kennicott said in a statement.

One planned change would have required low-income parents and other caregivers of children age 6 and older to search for a job or take other steps, such as participating in community service, to obtain food stamps.

About 455,000 New Mexicans receive food stamps, which provide a maximum monthly benefit of $194 for an individual and $649 for a family of four.

Tesuque Pueblo announced that crews will begin making topographic surveys in early December on lands within the pueblo’s exterior boundaries to prepare for development of the Pojoaque Basin regional water system.

The water system is part of the settlement in the Aamodt case, a decades-old lawsuit to resolve water rights claims from the Tesuque, Nambe, San Ildefonso and Pojoaque pueblos within the basin.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

All addictions are a form of disease Dear Annie: Please tell me, when did alcoholism become a disease? A disease is when the body is ill and not functioning properly.

According to Webster’s Dictionary, addiction is the quality or state of being addicted, and continues that it is a “compulsive need for and use of a habit-forming substance (as heroin, nicotine or alcohol) characterized by welldefined physiological symptoms upon withdrawal.”

So why do alcoholics have a disease and those who abuse drugs are addicts? Why do we tolerate the double standard? — Ventura, Calif.

Dear Ventura: It’s not a double standard. Alcoholics are also addicts. The idea that addiction is a disease became popular in the ‘70s, when those treating addicts realized that stigmatizing them as simply lacking self-control and having character deficiencies was prejudicial and counterproductive to effective treatment. We now know that some people are genetically predisposed to becoming addicted and that repeatedly abusing drugs or alcohol can alter the brain. But there is some argument that addiction is not as similar to a medical disease as it is to a chronic disorder or compulsive behavior, which is why support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous can be so helpful.

Dear Annie: A dear aunt passed away about six weeks ago.

Unfortunately, I could not attend her out-of-town funeral due to the expense and my own health issues. But I knew she loved a particular flower, and I had the florist send some to the funeral home.

I have heard nothing from the family, although even a short note would have been appreciated.

How do I check to see whether the flowers arrived on time? I am uncomfortable calling the family.

Can I check with the florist? Our income is limited, and an expensive bouquet takes thought and budgeting. Have we lost all our manners in this day and age? — Dumfounded Niece Dear Niece: It can be difficult for family members to put

aside their grief long enough to send thank-you notes and other acknowledgments, and it helps to have friends assist them. Yes, you can check with the florist.

But there is nothing wrong with picking up the phone to call your relatives and express your condolences, share memories of your aunt and, in the course of the conversation, find out whether the flowers were received.

Dear Annie: I am the 11-yearold boy who wrote to you about my brother-in-law who has been bullying me. I signed the letter “Your Friend.” When I saw your answer in my newspaper, I knew it was time to do something.

I decided to start with my brother, who is in the Army. I emailed him before school and told him I had written you and asked him to find my letter on your website. He called me within 30 minutes, and I told him everything that “Chris” has been doing to me. He was so angry. He said he’d fix it. He called our parents and told them about my letter. My parents confronted Chris, who admitted everything, but said he was only joking. They didn’t believe him. My sister has taken Chris’ side, which I understand, but I don’t think he will ever bully me again. My dad made it clear that he is never to lay a hand on me. My mother and brother said similar things. That made me smile because I know I can count on my family to protect me.

Thank you, Annie. You helped me fix this, and I love you for it. — Your Friend Again Dear Friend: Your letter made our day! But it was your courage in confronting this issue that made the difference.

We only pointed you in the right direction. Thanks so much for letting us know we helped.

Tips to making your own pet food Home-cooked meals rise in popularity

By Sue Manning The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Like man, the way to a dog’s heart is through its stomach.

No one knows that better than Kris Rotonda and Denise Fernandez, the couple who conceived the Doggy Cooking Network and founded online dating service YouMustLove DogsDating.com, where poochloving singles can connect with potential mates.

Their Doggy Cooking Network on YouTube taps into the popularity of cooking shows like The Pioneer Woman and Barefoot Contessa to show pet owners how to dish up fresh, homemade alternatives to commercial kibble. It struck a chord as serving safe, wholesome food has become important to people putting more time, money and energy into pet care.

Some animal lovers have emphasized home-cooked canine cuisine following complaints of tainted food sickening and killing pets.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has received reports that dog and cat treats made in China have killed 1,000 dogs and sickened more than 4,800 pets since 2007.

The agency has not been able to prove the chicken, duck or sweet potato jerky treats are causing the illnesses, but large retailers PetSmart and Petco plan to pull them from shelves.

Worried pet owners can find easy recipes in Rotonda and Fernandez’s cooking shows. In their videos, they use simple ingredients like chicken, rice and eggs to make everything from frozen yogurt bars and

A title slide with graphics shows an episode of the Doggy Cooking Network, a YouTube show for those into canine cuisine, recorded in Safety Harbor, Fla.

sweet bean rice to meatloaf birthday cake, and they incorporate food trends like organic and gluten-free snacks.

“The idea is simple. Food brings families together,” Fernandez said. “Only people who are really devoted to their dogs are going to cook for them.”

She and Rotonda are not professional chefs but display quick ways to please a pet’s palate after testing the dishes out on their four dogs.

Viewers mix along with the couple as they joke, banter and show off their dishes during the four-minute cooking segments.

Shows are being posted once a week on YouTube, but they hope to expand soon.

They started their one-of-akind show about three months ago. With the holidays coming up, at least one episode a month will spotlight ideas for pet recipes and gifts, Fernandez said.

Mary Montufar of Mountain View, Calif., will build on the show’s recipes to make her own creations for her 11-yearold Maltese mix, Phoebe. If the Doggy Cooking Network features chicken with carrots and peas, she will try similar alternatives, like turkey and sweet potatoes.

The fresh food helped combat Phoebe’s extensive allergies.

Montufar tried all kinds of store-bought food, but none of it stopped the dog’s scratching and discomfort.

So she decided to give the online cooking shows a try.

The ingredients are simple and cheap and the recipes are so easy that she can make a week’s worth of food at a time, Montufar said. She can also get it done in the same amount of time it would take her to go shopping, she said.

Best of all, the food has cut way down on Phoebe’s allergies.

In brief Tips on preparing pets for winter As the weather turns cold, it’s easy to turn the heat up, add more covers and forget about dropping outside temperatures.

Cats and dogs, however, can’t bundle up without our help.

It’s a common misconception that dogs and cats won’t get cold because of their fur coats.

Most domestic animals are not well equipped for cold weather and can easily be susceptible to frostbite and hypothermia. Toy breeds and shorthaired critters don’t conserve body heat well, while puppies and older animals cannot adequately control body temperatures.

Follow these tips when the weather outside is frightening: u Keep your dog indoors where he or she can be safe and warm from the elements. u Provide extra food — animals burn more calories in cold weather. u Clean off paws when your dog comes inside. u If you must keep your dog outside for an extended period, provide a sturdy doghouse: Use straw bedding; have an offcenter door with a flap to keep out the wind; face the doghouse south and raise it off the ground; provide plenty of food and water and make sure the water

Shelter wins fundraising challenge The New Mexican

The Santa Fe animal shelter has won a $50,000 grant after earning first place in a national online fundraising challenge.

The shelter, in competition with more than 140 animal-welfare organizations nationwide, raised $130,615 from more than 600 donors in the monthlong Michelson Found Animals Saving Pets Challenge through CrowdRise, an online fundraising site.

The shelter nudged out Rescued Pets Movement, a Hous-

ton-based group that fosters and transfers animals from that city to other shelters.

That group raised $129,231, and earns a $20,000 grant.

The third-place winner, Indianapolis-based Foundation Against Companion Animal Euthanasia Inc. raised $125,182 and earns a $10,000 grant from the Los Angeles-based Found Animals.

The shelter will celebrate the win at a 6 p.m. Tuesday party at Sanbusco Market Center hosted

by Teca Tu. The event is free and open to

the public. The Santa Fe animal shelter focused on behavior needs of homeless animals during the campaign.

The extra resources will help hundreds of animals overcome behavior issues such as fearfulness and lack of confidence, said Hannah Padilla, the shelter’s director of behavior and training.

The shelter’s staff and volunteers created a thank-you video for the community.

Speculation continues about how far the accident will push back the day when Virgin Galactic’s paying customers can routinely rocket dozens of miles from a $219 million spaceport in the New Mexico desert toward the edge of space for a fleeting feeling of weightlessness and a breathtaking view.

Whitesides said the accident has been tough on many levels, but he refused to see it as a roadblock and said the company does not have to start from scratch.

“There was no question it was a tragic setback, but it’s one from which we can recover,” he said. “With Serial No. 2, we’ll be putting a stronger, even better ship into initial commercial service and I think we’ll be able to get back into test flights soon and carry forward.”

Virgin Galactic has hopes of one day being able to manufacture at least one new ship a year. It envisions flights with six passengers climbing more than 62 miles above Earth.

Energy-efficiency advocates are asking the state’s high court to review a New Mexico Court of Appeals decision in September that allowed a rollback of New Mexico’s green building code.

The Court of Appeals upheld a repeal by the New Mexico Construction Industries Commission of a new energy-efficiency requirement for residential and commercial buildings.

The New Mexico Environmental Law Center now is asking the state Supreme Court

Navajo presidential hopeful picks running mate PHOENIX — A Navajo Nation presidential hopeful who moved up on the ballot after another candidate was disqualified over a Navajo fluency requirement chose a fellow lawmaker to be his running mate.

Russell Begaye announced the selection of Jonathan Nez on Wednesday in the tribal capital of Window Rock.

Begaye said Nez, 39, knows how to set goals and achieve them, pointing to his master’s degree and pursuit of a doctorate, and his advocacy for healthy lifestyles.

They called on tribal members to share ideas on how to move the government forward.

Kestler advertised on business cards that he offered teeth cleanings, fillings, extractions and crowns, police have said.

Kestler reportedly told police he had a license to practice dentistry in Mexico, but he was unable to provide proof of his Mexican credentials. He is not licensed to practice in the United States.

Kestler’s tools, which were seized as evidence in the case, have been turned over to the New Mexico Health Department to test for any blood-

borne diseases that could have been spread by Kestler.

Castillo is expected to testify against “El Dentista” at his trial, which is scheduled for February.

Tesuque: Water system debated Continued from Page A-7 land. San Ildefonso also is conducting land surveys to determine pueblo and non-pueblo land boundaries in preparation for easements for the regional water system.

The water system has remained controversial among people who are party to the water rights case. Some have claimed the system is unnecessary and will cost too much. Others are concerned about who will manage the water system, which is supposed to be governed by a board made up of pueblo and Santa Fe County representatives.

Proponents say the water system is the only way to ensure a consistent supply of water for residents in the region who currently rely primarily on domestic wells and community water systems.

The settlement still hasn’t been finalized in federal District Court. Almost 800 water rights holders in the basin filed objections to a partial final judgment in the case. Each of their objections has to be answered. The objections include a claim that the state of New Mexico lacks authority to reach a settlement agreement on behalf of residents and complaints about lack of proper notification of the partial judgment.

According to online records, Garcia lived at various addresses in Santa Fe in the 1980s and 1990s, although he

may have lived in Kent, Wash., for about a year in 1992. He was booked in the Santa Fe County jail on charges of prowling, harassment, and resisting, hindering or obstructing an officer in 1998. It’s unclear what became of those charges.

Garcia apparently moved to Roach, Mo., in 2002, the same year he was convicted of a second-degree felony there.

He was sentenced to five years of supervised probation for domestic assault.

He was released from custody in Santa Fe last May and remained here pending court proceedings.

The vice president is the second in command on the country’s largest American Indian reservation, which stretches into Arizona, New Mexico and Utah.

Begaye and Nez will face former President Joe Shirley Jr. and Dineh Benally in a special election that hasn’t been scheduled.

Shirley’s campaign said Wednesday that it is looking toward a victory, regardless of the challengers.

Democrats win, but only on issues

I

t was a great night for Democrats — on the issues.

Sure, Democratic candidates got shellacked, clobbered, whipped, walloped — pick your metaphor — in Tuesday’s election. But voters also passed judgment on dozens of ballot measures, and the news there was much better. On issues that Democrats traditionally champion — minimum wage, gun safety, abortion rights, voting rights, environmental protection, paid sick leave and criminal justice reform — they came out on top.

Voters in four states that went with Mitt Romney in 2012 — Alaska, Arkansas, Nebraska and South Dakota — approved minimum-wage increases. That should help make it easier for Republicans to support a modest minimum-wage hike in the next Congress. In San Francisco and Oakland, ballot measures to gradually increase the minimum wage to $15 an hour passed by wide margins, giving Democrats a further boost.

Voters in Washington state approved a measure requiring all gun sales to be accompanied by background checks, a law that the Democratic-led Senate failed to pass in the wake of the shooting massacre in Newtown, Conn. Washington voters also defeated a competing amendment, pushed by the gun-rights organizations, which aimed to prevent more checks. Polling shows that background checks have broad support across parties and gun owners, and the Washington referendum may embolden other states to take similar action.

In addition, Colorado’s Democratic governor, John Hickenlooper, who pushed for and won universal background checks and limits on high-capacity magazines, appears to have eked out a victory despite steady attacks from the National Rifle Association and other gun-rights groups.

On abortion, voters in Colorado and North Dakota rejected state constitutional amendments that defined human life as beginning at conception — a direct challenge to Roe v. Wade. The

OUR VIEW

Election sends mixed message

A

Colorado measure would have changed its criminal code to treat the unborn as children. A ballot measure in Tennessee granting the state legislature explicit authority to regulate abortion passed, but the state will have to stay within the bounds of Roe. Voters in Connecticut and Missouri rejected proposals to allow early voting, but the Missouri defeat was a victory for voting-rights advocates who saw it as a sham. (Proponents of the Connecticut measure could not have chosen less favorable wording for the ballot.) Illinois voters passed a largely symbolic voting-rights amendment to their state constitution, but the more important ballot-access test came in Montana, where voters defeated a proposal to end same-day voter registration.

Ballot measures to protect the environment also fared well. Voters in Florida adopted a constitutional amendment designed to increase water and land conservation. Louisiana voters supported a fund for artificial reef development. In California and Rhode Island, voters passed bond measures

allowing the state to borrow on behalf of environmental protection, and a similar measure appears headed for victory in Maine. New Jersey voters passed a constitutional amendment to protect open space. Those victories more than made up for losses in North Dakota (directing oil revenue to conservation) and Massachusetts (expanding bottle deposits).

The Massachusetts ballot also included a measure requiring certain private sector employers to provide paid sick leave to their workers — an issue that is gaining traction among liberal Democrats.

It passed and could become a major issue for Democrats in the 2016 presidential election. Former President Bill Clinton signed the Family and Medical Leave Act into law in 1993, granting workers the right to take time off without losing their jobs. The liberal wing of the Democratic Party could push Hillary Clinton to embrace paid sick leave, if she runs for president.

Finally, voters in California passed a measure downgrading various nonviolent crimes to misdemeanors, rather

than felonies, in an effort to reduce incarceration. Voters in Illinois enshrined a Crime Victim’s Bill of Rights in their constitution. Voters in Alaska, Oregon and Washington, D.C., approved measures legalizing marijuana, an issue that Democrats tend to embrace more eagerly than Republicans. Voters in Oregon passed a gender-equality amendment to their state constitution. And voters in Missouri rejected a measure to ban teacher tenure and require teacher evaluations — a big win for the teachers’ union, a traditional Democratic ally.

Republicans had a number of important ballot measure victories, including tax caps in Georgia and Tennessee.

But on the whole, even as the Democratic Party got an old-fashioned whuppin’, traditional Democratic issues had an awfully good night.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Stop tearing down, erasing the past

I

A-11

have worked almost continually in many Santa Fe museums and galleries starting in 1971. In that time, comment from visitors changed from awe, inspiration and appreciation to disappointment and dismay.

Demolishing the Museum of New Mexico administration building on Lincoln Avenue, or one by one, lovely old homes across from the Capitol on Don Gaspar and on and on — 40 years of chipping away decimates our historically significant architecture. There’s more to come as we lose more of those “unimportant” buildings at San Francisco and Sandoval streets.

The buildings might be “only” 80 years old, but are certainly older, better-looking and more genuine than fakes, replicas built after the real things are torn down.

The term “adobe Disneyland” is a typical description by those who come once and don’t return.

It is truly irresponsible to tear down one more old building. Destroying history is not development, it is erasing the

past. What ever happened to historic preservation?

Wrong choice When you aligned yourself (“For governor, Martinez,” Our View, Oct. 26) with the Martinez campaign it indicated you support the issues of her campaign (and the Republicans) which are anti-gay, prowar, anti-woman, anti-choice, anti-equal pay, anti-immigrant, anti-voter’s rights, anti-education, anti-environment, antiworker, climate change denial, anti-evolution and in general anti-person. Do you also endorse the Flat Earth Society?

If these are not the beliefs of The New Mexican then you have a lot of explaining to do because your endorsement of Martinez indicated you are a supporter of all of these positions.

From The Santa Fe New Mexican: Nov. 6, 1914: London — The war office quotes a wounded German soldier as telling the British surgeon attending him: “Our officers warned us if we faltered we would be shot from behind. I know this threat has been fulfilled when our terrible losses compelled us to retire. I myself was wounded by a German bullet.”

Nov. 6, 1964: Roswell — While he has no plans for the immediate future, Edwin L. Mechem, unsuccessful candidate for a seat in the U.S. Senate, said he has no intention of getting out of politics. Mechem was defeated in the general election by former U.S. Sen. Joseph Montoya, D-N.M. Offering a few observations on the Democratic sweep in New Mexico, Mechem said one of the causes was what he termed the heat of President Lyndon Johnson put on residents of New Mexico. Mechem said they were told if they wanted to keep their military installations, their Social Security and their welfare, they’d better vote for Joe Montoya.

nyone who claims to understand the results of the 2014 midterm elections is fooling himself — the analysis and fallout from this Democratic shellacking will take months to unravel. After all, it’s an election where Republicans made big gains but progressive issues won handily. What that means is hard to decipher.

We like this tongue-in-cheek, election night tweet from FiveThirtyEight’s Ben Casselman: “So voters want a higher minimum wage, legal pot, abortion access and GOP representation. OK then.” (FiveThirtyEight.com is a website about politics.)

That’s right. In an election year when voters returned control of the U.S. Senate to Republicans, where Republican governors won and in New Mexico, where the state House of Representatives has a GOP majority for the first time in decades, voters also approved binding increases in the minimum wage in South Dakota, Alaska, Arkansas and Nebraska and legalized pot in Oregon, Alaska and Washington, D.C. Anti-abortion personhood amendments lost in Colorado and North Dakota. Massachusetts will now require paid sick leave.

Yet voters, angry about gridlock and do-nothing politicians, have managed to send to Washington a more conservative Congress that likes President Barack Obama even less. Now the Congress must move from politics to governing, while at the same time, keep the base happy. And governing — passing legislation and finding solutions — is what the country needs.

Even so, the conservative magazine, National Review, is flatly telling the GOP to forget about governing, saying: “The desire to prove Republicans can govern also makes them hostage to their opponents in the Democratic Party and the media. It empowers Senator Harry Reid, whose dethroning was in large measure the point of the election.

If Republicans proclaim that they have to govern now that they run Congress, they maximize the incentive for the Democrats to filibuster everything they can — and for President Obama to veto the remainder. Then the Democrats will explain that the Republicans are too extreme to get anything done.”

Instead, the National Review calls for the GOP to spend the next two years developing a plan for what it would tackle with the presidency and Congress: “… not much progress is possible until we have a better president. Getting one ought to be conservatism’s main political goal over the next two years.”

Political writer Jonathan Chait points out that the muchloathed gridlock isn’t a problem between the White House and Congress, it’s a problem within Congress. “The legislative dynamics in Washington are very simple. Gridlock exists because Obama and House Republicans cannot agree on legislation. If Obama and the House could agree on legislation, their deal would be approved by a Democraticcontrolled Senate or by a Republican-controlled Senate.”

So the focus will be on the House of Representatives (and its Senate ally, Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas). It’s in the House that the GOP will have to decide if the extreme wing of the party runs the show, or whether it’s possible to find common ground with moderate and liberal Democrats. GOP senators are promising an ambitious legislative agenda, including an overhaul of the tax code, support for trade expansion and revisions (or repeal, again) of the Affordable Care Act. Compromise — from all sides — is necessary. That’s especially true if politicians consider the reality that voter turnout was dismally low and older this year. This election night tweet from The Atlantic’s David Frum is a reminder to savor victory, but remain humble: “Is tonight’s takeaway that Republicans do great when voter turnout drops below 38 percent?”

Come 2016, with higher turnout and an open presidential seat, the Senate gains of 2014 could be wiped away.

Unless, of course, the GOP takes the reins and shows America how to govern.

Lawyer: A-Rod admitted steroid use to DEA

SFHS coach quits over tennis court fracas

By Curt Anderson The Associated Press

MIAMI — A lawyer for the University of Miami’s former pitching coach said Wednesday that Alex Rodriguez admitted to federal investigators he used steroids supplied by the owner of a now-closed South Florida clinic.

Attorney Frank Quintero Jr., who represents Lazaro “Laser” Collazo in his defense against charges of conspiracy to distribute performanceenhancing drugs, told The Associated Press that the Alex New York Yankees Rodriguez third baseman confessed to steroids use, according to Drug Enforcement Administration documents provided by the government to defense lawyers.

The Miami Herald first reported Rodriguez’s admission Wednesday, saying he met with DEA agents on Jan. 29 at the agency’s South Florida field office. Given a grant of immunity from prosecution, Rodriguez told investigators he did use banned substances between late 2010 and October 2012 supplied by Anthony Bosch, who owned the Biogenesis of America clinic in Coral Gables.

Rodriguez has publicly denied any use of banned substances during his time with the Yankees, which began in 2004.

The three-time AL MVP acknowledged in 2009 that he using performance-enhancing drugs while with Texas from 2001-03.

Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig suspended Rodriguez for 211 games in August 2013 for violations of the sport’s drug agreement and labor contract, and the penalty was cut to the 2014 season in January by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz.

Rodriguez proclaimed his innocence and sued in federal court, then withdrew the suit and accepted the penalty.

The Herald reported Bosch told the DEA that A-Rod agreed to pay for steroids for 20 Biogenesis customers after the clinic closed to keep Bosch from talking about his involvement.

That could prompt MLB to investigate whether Rodriguez could be suspended again under the sport’s drug agreement for violations related to the sale and distribution of PEDs, which are separate from the prohibitions on personal use.

An attorney for Rodriguez did not immediately respond to a telephone call seeking comment. The Yankees declined comment.

The DEA report is among the evidence federal prosecutors have assembled against Rodriguez cousin Yuri Sucart, Collazo and others accused of supplying testosterone and human growth hormone to MLB players and other athletes linked to Biogenesis.

Fulgenzi resigns, says district lacks commitment

Deuce.

That’s where everything stands when it comes to the tennis courts at Santa Fe High, which have been at the center of a whirlwind of events over the past few weeks and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.

The Santa Fe school board voted by a 4-1 margin during its Tuesday meeting to table approval of a service contract to resurface the 36-year-old facility until it meets with concerned community mem-

bers, parents and players of the Santa Fe High tennis program regarding the action and the status of the program.

“I want an opportunity for the interested parties to come together, and I want hear what they have to say,” said board member Linda Trujillo.

The team is in turmoil after recently hired head coach Warren Fulgenzi resigned Sunday, citing a lack of commitment from the school district that stems in part from the closure of the tennis courts in March because of surface cracks that made it a safety hazard, according to school administrators.

Work will continue on the resurfacing project, but there is a possibility that it

Flair for the dramatic Confident Prep wants to end Sundevils’ reign at top of state

riffin Sides seems like he is a calm, cool and collected high school soccer player, but he was once a Southerner who had some fidelity issues.

Sides, a senior forward at Santa Fe Prep, had surgery in late June 2013 to repair a shoulder that was constantly dislocating.

The rehabilitation process took six months, and he had to sit out his junior season.

Soccer, as it turns out, takes up a lot of time, so Sides had to fill the void with something. Instead of sitting around the entire season, he decided to go out for the school play, Dearly Departed.

“I was like ‘I might as well go for the play,’ ” Sides said. “I was really bored all the time, so I decided to do it.”

He got the part of Junior, who, to say the least, is not the classiest guy.

“He was kind of an idiot that cheated on his wife,” Sides said.

The play was fun, but it was nothing compared to the rush of being on the pitch with his fellow Blue Griffins, who fell to District 2A-AAAA rival Monte del Sol 2-0 in last year’s state quarterfinals.

“It was fun to mess around with that, but I still wanted to be out here,” Sides said. “It was a disappointing season to not play, but I’m glad I’m back.”

With Sides back on the field for his senior year, the Blue Griffins had one their most successful seasons in recent memory.

Prep (16-3-1 overall) did not lose a single 2A-AAAA match, lost in overtime to both defending Class AAAAA (now AAAAAA) champion

Browns, Bengals to play biggest Ohio game since 1986

Too tired for practice?

Ask a GPS device

By Joe Kay The Associated Press

CINCINNATI — The Browns and Bengals were playing for first place late in the 1986 season. Bernie Kosar set the tone on the first play, throwing a long completion to Reggie Langhorne at Riverfront Stadium.

Marty Schottenheimer’s team pulled away to a 34-3 victory that day. Sam Wyche’s Bengals couldn’t get anything going — not even with Boomer Esiason throwing to Cris Collinsworth — as the Browns dominated.

Why the history lesson?

That’s the last time Ohio’s two NFL teams played with first place at stake so late in a season.

The Bengals (5-2-1) are alone atop the AFC North, with everyone else right behind. The Browns (5-3) could move into a first-place tie with Pittsburgh (6-3) and show they’re ready to be taken seriously as a contender Thursday night at Paul Brown Stadium.

A victory would give the Browns a three-game winning streak, their best start since 1994, and a lot of credibility as an up-and-coming team.

LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska’s Tommy Armstrong Jr. was running play after play during a preseason practice and was beginning to wear down in the heat.

He could have asked for a break, but he didn’t have to. An assistant strength coach who was keeping electronic tabs on Armstrong could tell by looking at his laptop that the quarterback was fatigued. Armstrong was ordered to the sideline.

“Dial it down,” he was told.

Armstrong had just entered

the “red zone” — and not the kind that extends from the end zone to the 20-yard line. This “red zone” meant Armstrong — who was wearing a tracking device relaying biomechanical data to the staffer’s laptop in real time — was overexerting himself and at greater risk for injury.

It’s one of the features of technology being used by about 30 college football teams and 15 NFL teams to monitor the movements and physical output of players during conditioning, practices and games.

SOCCER NOTEBOOK

7 area teams vie for semifinal spots Sundevils are looking for their fifth straight state championship.

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

uuu

There are seven Northern New Mexico teams playing in the State Soccer Tournament quarterfinals on Thursday at the APS Soccer Complex, but only one of those teams are guaranteed to play in Friday’s semifinals.

No. 7 Taos and No. 2 St. Michael’s will play each other at 11:15 a.m. in the Class A-AAAA girls bracket for a shot at the semifinals. All other Northern New Mexico teams are playing schools from outside the area.

The Los Alamos boys team was the only area team to fall to a lower seed in the first round.

The No. 8 Hilltoppers lost to No. 9 Santa Teresa 1-0 at home on Nov. 1. The rest of the higher seeds — Monte del Sol, Taos girls and No. 6 Taos boys — all won.

All the lower seeds — No. 10 St. Michael’s boys, No. 12 Desert Academy and No. 9 Santa Fe Prep girls — all fell in the first round.

Two first-round matches saw teams from the area advance in the tournament by a shootout.

The Taos girls beat No. 10 Kirtland Central 4-3 in penalty kicks to get a 2-1 win, while the eighth-ranked Monte del Sol boys team outshot No. 9 Socorro 4-2 to move on with a 2-1 victory.

The Dragons will face No. 1 Albuquerque Sandia Prep at 3:15 p.m. Thursday. The

When the third-seeded Capital boys soccer team takes the field against No. 6 Chaparral in a quarterfinals match at 9 a.m.

Thursday, it will be the first time the Jaguars have played in 17 days.

Capital finished the regular season with a 4-0 win over Santa Fe High on Oct. 20.

The Jaguars have won 10 straight shutouts, and they will try to stay hot against a Lobos team that has won seven in a row.

uuu

If the St. Michael’s girls can get past Taos and No. 3 Las Vegas Robertson can beat No. 6 Socorro in the quarterfinals, they will meet in the semifinals at 11:30 a.m. on Friday.

The Lady Horsemen beat the Lady Cardinals 2-0 on Sept. 11, but Robertson has gone 13-1 since then and has won nine straight matches.

Robertson already beat Socorro 3-2 on Sept. 20 and St. Michael’s beat Taos 3-1 on Sept. 24. uuu

While no boys team from Santa Fe has taken home a blue trophy since Santa Fe Prep won one in 1982, the City Different has seen five girls state champions in just this century.

St. Michael’s won it all in 2001, 2007 and 2009 while the Prep girls were champions in 2003 and 2005. The Lady Horsemen are the only girls team left in the city that has a chance to quench a five-year drought.

Prep: Will play Hatch Valley in quarterfinals Continued from Page B-1 Las Cruces and AAAA (now AAAAA) champion Roswell, and was good enough to get the 2-seed in the A-AAAA State Soccer Tournament.

The Blue Griffins received a first-round bye and will play No. 7 Hatch Valley in the quarterfinals at 3:45 p.m. Thursday at the APS Soccer Complex.

They saw themselves in this position even before the season began. Competing for a state championship was a goal since first touch, and the longawaited moment is finally here.

“We’ve had other stuff that we’ve been focused on, but we had this in the back of our minds the whole season,” senior defender Keenan Amer said. “I think there’s a sense of excitement around us because it’s finally here.”

Even if Prep comes away empty-handed, it can still take solace in the idea that many believe this is the best boys soccer team the school has seen in a long time. Jim Leon-

ard, Prep’s Head of School and boys soccer assistant coach, said this is the best team he has seen in his 16 years with the school.

Hersch Wilson, who has been the boys head coach since 2006, said this is the best team he has coached during his tenure. It could be because this year’s team has a multitude of deadly scorers and a stingy defense, but Wilson said it’s mostly due to the passion for soccer that this group has.

The team had practice Sunday, and the players were already out there kicking the ball around well before Wilson or Leonard showed up.

“It’s just a group of guys that loves soccer, loves playing together and realizes that this is their last year,” Wilson said.

Being touted as one of the best teams in school history, having state title aspirations since the start of the season and getting the 2-seed in the tournament must come with some pressure, right?

If there ever was any pres-

sure to make it to the title match on Saturday, it was alleviated during the bye week.

“I felt the pressure more before this week, to be honest,” Sides said. “Since this week has started and we got back into training for the state matches, I think I’ve relaxed a little bit. I think we can get there, but I’m not feeling the pressure, at least right now.”

If the Blue Griffins make it to the title match, there is the possibility they could face No. 1 Albuquerque Sandia Prep again. Prep lost to the Sundevils 2-1 in the final match of the regular season on Oct. 23 after having a 1-0 halftime lead.

It would also be a rematch of the 2010 A-AAA finals, which Sandia Prep won 1-0. If the Sundevils make it to the championship, they will be competing for their fifth straight title. That is the longest active streak in the state, but the Blue Griffins still think they’re vulnerable.

“Hopefully we get the chance to play them again, because on another day, I think we can

beat them,” Amer said. “I just hope to get that chance. Hopefully we can end their run.”

If the Blue Griffins don’t end Sandia Prep’s streak this year, there is still hope for a title in the future.

“I think we’re going to be a strong team for a while,” Wilson said. “I think it’s the culture of Prep that we’re a soccerloving school, and I think we have the two best fields in New Mexico.”

But winning and losing isn’t everything. Playing in the state tournament is a privilege that a lot of high school soccer players don’t get to experience, and Wilson doesn’t want his players to forget that.

“The thing about state is that it can be over so quickly, and more than anything, we really want them to appreciate this time of year.”

Sides can appreciate this time of year. Being an unfaithful husband is not as fun as playing soccer.

Tennis: Parents, players support Fulgenzi Continued from Page B-1 might be halted — as soon as after the Nov. 18 board meeting.

Several players, parents and tennis supporters in the community offered support for Fulgenzi — a member of the famed Fulgenzi family who has been a part of 18 state individual and team championships — and denounced the SFPS plan to resurface the courts to the tune of $206,097.19, which a few say is a waste of money given the time of the year.

The courts are being routed and cleaned, while a patch material is placed over the cracks. The affected areas are sanded and leveled before a coat of acrylic resurfacer is laid on them and then painted. Carl Gruenler, the district deputy superintendent for business operations, said the initial routing, cleaning and patching must be done now before winter arrives, and the resurfacer and paint will be applied in the spring once temperatures are warm enough to finish the project.

“It will give a life to the courts into the next bond cycle [in 2017],” Gruenler said, alluding to the possibility that the courts might be rebuilt in the future. “That was how our decision was made.”

Gruenler said the project will not be complete until May or June. However, the boys and

girls teams could practice on the courts in the meantime, since the cracks likely would be removed and smoothed over to reduce the potential for injuries.

However, that decision has Fulgenzi, parents and players questioning the logic behind the timing. Fulgenzi, who is also the tennis pro at the Rosemarie Shellaberger Tennis Center, said almost all resurfacing projects are done in the spring and summer because patch materials are susceptible to repeated expanding and contracting with extreme temperatures changes.

“When they go through the freeze — and they will — those surfaces will be cracked again,” Fulgenzi said in an interview with The New Mexican. “They will have to come back in the spring and cover it again.”

William Varnham, father of juniors Megan and Tara Varnham, said during the board’s public forum that he was frustrated with what he perceived as “mismanagement” of both the courts and the program.

“I don’t know who authorized this expense, but it is a total waste of taxpayer money,” William Varnham said. “I have talked to one tennis court contractor who said the patched courts will not last through a single winter.”

However, Gruenler pointed out during an hourlong discus-

sion about the project that the courts at Santa Fe High and Capital were scheduled for resurfacing in the summer, but the parents and players wanted the Citizens Review Committee to move forward with building new tennis courts at the potential cost of $1.5 million to $2 million. The resurfacing work at Santa Fe High was scrapped, but the group was later informed that there was not enough money for new courts.

The issue resurfaced when Fulgenzi was hired in September to replace Bill Ellsworth.

He started preparing for the spring, which meant trying to find court time for his players.

Santa Fe High played its home matches and tournaments at Capital last spring, but practiced at Shellaberger. The cost to rent three courts was too expensive for the team to continue at Shellaberger, so Fulgenzi began working with Santa Fe High assistant principal Mark Mutz to secure time at Capital.

However, the First Serve New Mexico program, a nonprofit organization that operates as a tennis instruction and tutoring program with students in Santa Fe Public Schools and Pojoaque Valley Schools, also was seeking court time for its members and has a contract with SFPS. According to emails obtained

by The New Mexican, Mutz

expressed doubt to Fulgenzi that such an arrangement was possible.

“I’m not sure about the practicing at Capital,” Mutz wrote.

“We don’t have the budget to transport the players over there. If the courts are playable at SFHS, we will practice here. We will continue to work with Capital High to schedule matches over there.”

Mutz reiterated during the board meeting that the school’s preference is to have the team practice at Santa Fe High.

Fulgenzi, whose son, Warren Jr., and daughter, Brandee, play for Santa Fe High, said that flew in the face of what he had been previously told regarding practice time. He added that several administrators told him during interviews for the job that new courts would be built within the next two years.

Once he learned that the time frame was closer to 2019, he grew more frustrated with the situation.

“I have a younger son who will be a junior by the time that happens,” Fulgenzi said.

As the school board opted to delay approval of the contract, board president Steve Carrillo, who was the lone dissenter, expressed his own misgivings about the board’s decision.

“The end result of this may very well be there are no practice courts for [spring],” Carrillo said.

A-Rod: Player will be star witness in case Continued from Page B-1 Quintero told the AP he has a copy but cannot release it under federal evidence rules.

“I can for your report confirm that the report by the Herald is accurate as to what Rodriguez said,” Quintero said in

an email. “I don’t have a dog in this fight.

My client has no involvement with ANY major league players concerning the use of banned substances.”

Neither the DEA nor the Miami U.S. Attorney’s Office commented.

However, in a separate public court filing, prosecutors made clear Rodriguez

would be a star witness if the case against Sucart and the others goes to trial. It is currently set to begin Feb. 9 in Miami federal court.

“Rodriguez has a prominent role in the government’s proof of the … conspiracies to distribute testosterone and human growth hormone,” the prosecutors wrote.

Desert Academy beats Dulce, heads to 2AAA championship Natalie Passalacqua can’t figure out how to sweep Dulce, but she still knows how to beat the Lady Hawks.

Passalacqua’s Desert Academy volleyball team beat Dulce 25-14, 19-25, 25-17, 25-19 in the District 2AAA Tournament semifinals in New Mexico School for the Deaf’s Larsen Gym on Wednesday night. The Lady Wildcats will face No. 1 Santa Fe Prep in the championship match at 7 p.m. Friday in Prep Gymnasium.

This is the third time this season Desert Academy (14-8) has bested Dulce, but the Lady Wildcats never won in three games. On Wednesday, it was poor serving by Desert Academy in Game 2 that let the Lady Hawks stick around.

“We missed a lot of serves, and that gave them opportunities throughout the match,” Passalacqua said.

Serving is one thing the Lady Wildcats are going to work on their day off before facing the Blue Griffins.

Prep already beat Desert Academy three times this season, and that could actually work against the Blue Griffins. They say it’s hard to beat a team three times, but four times?

“They should have the pressure,” Passalacqua said. “We’re the underdog, and sometimes the underdog has the advantage. It could go either way.”

Desert Academy libero Amelia Linett went 27-for-27 on serves with 19 service points and four aces. Cassidy Hart had 24 assists, 10 service points and nine kills while Tori Heath added 20 kills.

A strong supporting cast Unheralded players making an impact for many teams

By Dennis Waszak Jr. The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Unheralded.

Unsung. But certainly not unappreciated by their teammates.

While the headlines belong to the likes of Peyton Manning, Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger, each NFL team has at least one player who isn’t necessarily a household name — yet.

Far from an unknown, Indianapolis’ T.Y. Hilton broke out last year with 82 receptions for 1,083 yards, taking over as Andrew Luck’s favorite target after Reggie Wayne went down with an injury. Still, he wasn’t generally mentioned before this season among the upper echelon of the league’s wide receivers with guys such as Calvin Johnson, Julio Jones and Dez Bryant.

Maybe not for much longer.

He’s off to another terrific start with 56 catches and 937 yards, which rank him second in the league.

“We’ve got that chemistry where he gives me a nod and I give him a nod,” said Hilton, in his third season. “And we just both know.”

Sometimes it takes an injury to another player on the depth chart to open up an opportunity. Cincinnati wide receiver Mohamed Sanu, San Diego running back Branden Oliver and St. Louis quarterback Austin Davis know all about that.

Sanu, a third-round draft pick in 2012, helped carry the Bengals’ offense while star receiver A.J. Green was sidelined a few weeks this season.

He enters Thursday night’s game against the Browns leading the team with 39 catches for 628 yards and four touchdowns — and he has even thrown a touchdown pass.

“He has such strong hands that if anything is contested, he’ll come down with it,” quarterback Andy Dalton said. “It’s nice having a guy like that.”

The Chargers feel the same about Oliver, an undrafted rookie who played college ball at Buffalo. Fourth on the depth chart just over a month ago behind Ryan Mathews, Danny Woodhead and Donald Brown, the 5-foot-8 Oliver burst onto the scene when all three went down with injuries. He has Chargers fans comparing him to Darren Sproles.

“I let everybody know during the draft process that he was one of the best running backs that I ever played against, even though it was practice,” said Raiders rookie linebacker Khalil Mack, a college teammate.

Davis also went undrafted in 2012 out of Southern Miss, but has become St. Louis’ starting quarterback in his second stint with the Rams following a season-ending knee injury to Sam Bradford and backup Shaun Hill hurting his quadriceps.

Davis has helped lead St. Louis (3-5) to wins over NFC West rivals Seattle and San Francisco in the last three weeks.

For Minnesota, running back Jerick McKinnon and Carolina defensive end Mario Addison

have stepped in for established stars — the Vikings’ Adrian Peterson and the Panthers’ Greg Hardy — facing legal troubles.

While Peterson has been out on paid leave because of a felony child abuse charge, McKinnon has become the Vikings’ No. 1 running back.

Drafted in the third round last May, McKinnon has 446 yards on 90 carries — a 5.0 average.

“It’s nice that people are taking notice and stuff like that,” McKinnon said. “But I just think it’s really a credit to how the offense has been working.”

Addison, in his fourth season, already has a career high with four sacks and has seen his playing time increase with Hardy on the exempt-commissioner’s permission list while facing a domestic violence trial that now has been delayed until after the season.

Some veterans such as Baltimore running back Justin Forsett and Pittsburgh cornerback William Gay are making their marks with consistent playing time in unexpected roles.

Forsett, who played for three teams in five seasons before joining the Ravens as a thirdstringer during the offseason, got his chance when Ray Rice got cut for his domestic

violence case. He’s outplayed Bernard Pierce and is fifth in NFL rushing with 609 yards, averaging 5.4 yards per carry.

“Nobody works harder,” Baltimore coach John Harbaugh said. “He’s one heck of a football player.”

Gay is in his eighth season and has started several games during his career, but he was initially expected to be the Steelers’ nickel cornerback.

He’s now their No. 1 cornerback with Ike Taylor out and Cortez Allen struggling.

Then, there are players who seemingly came out of nowhere to make big impacts.

Tampa Bay linebacker Danny Lansanah has returned two interceptions for touchdowns after winning the starting job early this season. That came after he played in one game last season for the Bucs, his first NFL regular-season appearance since 2008.

Detroit defensive end George Johnson signed with the Lions in April, made the roster after being a long shot, and has four sacks after having none since beginning his career in 2010.

Giants tight end Larry Donnell was undrafted out of Grambling State in 2011, spent 2012 on New York’s practice squad, and had three catches in 16 games a year ago. He has suddenly become one of Eli Manning’s favorite targets this season, ranking among NFL leaders at his position with 37 receptions for 357 yards and five TDs. Oh, and don’t forget the rookie special teamers, such as kickers Chandler Catanzaro of Arizona and Cody Parkey of Philadelphia; and punters Tress Way of Washington and Colton Schmidt of Buffalo.

“It’s pretty simple,” Tampa Bay coach Lovie Smith said.

“If you get an opportunity for some plays and you do good things, you’re going to get more. It’s like that for every position.”

Ohio: Still’s ailing daughter will be present Continued from Page B-1 because Cincinnati this year has been probably the best team in the AFC North,” left tackle Joe Thomas said. “If we want to win the AFC North, we’re going to have to beat Cincinnati, and this is our first opportunity.”

What about stage fright?

“If you’re at this point in your career, you’ve played on multiple national-stage games,” quarterback Brian Hoyer said.

“Guys have been in Super Bowls, playoff games. This isn’t like the high school team playing on the weekly Friday night game on TV.” The Bengals are trying to gain respect, too. The defending division champions have developed a reputation for playing well most of the time but falling apart in the biggest games. They’ve reached the playoffs each of the last three seasons and gone 0-3 in the postseason.

They had their first chance to make an impression during a Sunday night game in New England on Oct. 5 and got drubbed 43-17.

They get a chance to make a second impression Thursday night, this time at home.

“You love to have that type of atmo-

sphere, especially at here at home in front of the whole nation,” defensive tackle Domata Peko said. “It gives us an opportunity to bounce back from our slip-up we had against the Patriots. It’s another prime-time game, and we’ll be ready to go.”

Things to watch at Paul Brown Stadium on Thursday night: Still emotional: Bengals defensive tackle Devon Still will have his 4-year-old daughter, Leah, watching him play for the first time. The girl is fighting cancer, but was well enough to fly from Philadelphia.

The Bengals raised money for pediatric cancer research by donating money from his jersey sales to Children’s Hospital in Cincinnati. They’ll present a check for more than $1 million on the field, with Leah participating in an emotional moment.

“The crowd will go crazy,” Still said.

“They’ve been supporting her this whole time with her being all the way in Philadelphia, and I know with her being in Cincinnati and them having a chance to see her, it’s going to get the crowd kind of hyped up.”

Bengals bad at night, Browns bad on road: Both teams are working against their history in this one. The Bengals are playing in prime time for the second time this season. That lopsided loss in New England left them 18-40 in prime time. The

Browns haven’t won an AFC North game on the road since Sept. 28, 2008, dropping their last 17 away from home against division rivals.

Green vs. Haden: The game reprises one of the best cornerback vs. receiver matchups in the NFL, Joe Haden against A.J. Green. The receiver managed only nine catches for 58 yards total in the two games last season. Green missed three games with an injured big right toe, but returned last Sunday and caught three passes for 44 yards and a touchdown during a 33-23 win over Jacksonville. The Bengals are hoping to increase his time on the field Thursday.

Little vs. Browns: Receiver Greg Little tore into the Browns during the week for releasing him last May after three inconsistent seasons. The Bengals signed him to shore up their depleted group of receivers, and he’s caught four passes for 55 yards in three games. Little is eager to have a big game and show up his former team.

Browns on the run: Cleveland’s running game hasn’t gone anywhere lately. In the past three, the Browns have managed only 69, 39 and 50 yards while averaging 1.9 yards per carry. The Bengals are known for pressuring quarterbacks, so it’ll be up to Cleveland’s running game to keep them honest and keep Hoyer off the ground.

Device: May help prevent injuries Continued from Page B-1 The Australia-based company Catapult developed the system about eight years ago. Rugby and soccer teams were among the first to use it.

Football teams in the United States began signing on with Catapult three years ago, and several hockey and basketball teams have followed.

“You build a portfolio of data on each player so over a period of time you can tell when they’re wearing down, do they need an extra rest, do they need a day off, all those things,” Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. “The most important thing is what you do throughout the week to get them ready to perform at their peak, at their optimal level, come game day.”

At Nebraska, the top 50 football players slip a monitor weighing about 3 ounces into a pouch in the back of the tight-fit shirts they wear under their shoulder pads. Head strength coach James Dobson said it’s too expensive to track all of the Huskers’ 130 players. As it is, Nebraska will pay Catapult more than $363,000 over three years to rent equipment.

Each monitor includes a GPS device and other sensors that measure hundreds of variables per second, many of them hard to pronounce.

Some of the basic metrics: how far and fast did the player travel during a practice or game, his rate of acceleration, how many times he went right vs. left and whether he moved faster when he went one way or the other. The monitor is so sensitive that it can detect even a slight change in a player’s gait, which can be a sign of fatigue or injury.

Data collected is put into an algorithm developed

by Catapult, and the result is a number called “player load.” The load is a number that varies depending on a player’s position, but the average in college football would be about 350, said Catapult sports performance manager Ben Peterson. The higher a player’s number goes, the greater his exertion.

A baseline is established for each player, and his readings can be monitored in real time.

“On certain days you have

to be in certain zones,” said Armstrong, the Nebraska quarterback. “If you go over that, they tell you, ‘Hey, yesterday you were in the red, so make sure you’re not today.’

If you are in the red zone, you take a few series off.”

Under NCAA rules, Catapult data cannot be looked at in real time during games because it could provide a competitive advantage if one team is using the system and the other is not.

Peterson said college teams using the system have reported an average of a 27-percent decrease in softtissue injuries.

When an athlete does get hurt, sports medicine personnel can use Catapult data to manage his recovery. For instance, if an injured wide receiver were able to reach only 70 percent of his maximum acceleration or speed, it would show he has a ways to go before he’s ready to play in a game. The data also could be used to establish points of emphasis in a hurt athlete’s rehabilitation protocol.

Alabama coach Nick Saban said he looks at player load readings to see which players are working as hard as they can and, conversely, to identify ones who aren’t.

Saban said players who know they’re going to play on Saturdays tend to give maximum effort all the time, but that’s not necessarily the case for those who aren’t as likely to play.

Saban said it’s telling to track defensive backs.

“When they’re covering a good receiver, their numbers are higher,” Saban said.

“When they’re covering a guy who’s not as fast, they’re not as good.”

Tennessee safety Brian Randolph said the technology helps coaches put players in the best position for success.

“They don’t want to overwork us. It shows that they care,” Randolph said. “They definitely tell you when you’ve had a lot of reps or when you have a lot of mileage on your legs from the day before, so they tell you to get in the cold tub and get extra recovery.”

AP sports writers John Zenor in Tuscaloosa, Ala., and Steve Megargee in Knoxville, Tenn., contributed to this report.

Nebraska assistant strength coach Ben Schumacher on Oct. 28 removes a GPS tracking device from Nebraska offensive lineman Mike Moudy in Lincoln, Neb. At Nebraska, the top 50 football players slip a monitor weighing about 3 ounces into a pouch in the back of the tight-fit shirts they wear under their shoulder pads that track their movements and exertion during practice.

COLLEGE MEN’S BASKETBALL

Coach Crean: Hoosiers’ culture remains work in progress

By Michael Marot The Associated Press

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Tom Crean sent a clear message to Indiana’s basketball players Wednesday.

It’s time to shape up.

Two days after announcing three players had been suspended for four games each, Crean spent 45 minutes taking questions about the state of the program, the discipline he has imposed, the reaction of angry fans and how he hopes to avoid any more issues with the school’s signature sports program.

He’s going to be tougher.

“Sterner sometimes means we’ve got to take more away. We’ve got to bring more to this that gets their attention. Sterner is how do we get their attention and how do we get it again,

again and again?” he said. “People can define it as you have to do this, you have to do that.

“OK, we’ve had a lot of people come through in 16 years as a head coach that have dealt with sterner and ended up pretty good. But I just think you have to continue to get their attention any way possible.”

If Crean didn’t have the players’ attention before, he certainly does after last weekend.

Sophomore forward Devin Davis remains hospitalized after suffering a serious head injury Saturday morning when freshman forward Emmitt Holt allegedly ran into him with a car.

According to the police report, Davis, 19, and Holt, 18, had been drinking.

School officials said Holt’s blood-alcohol content was 0.025, well below the legal limit of 0.08, but Holt was cited

for illegal consumption of alcohol, a misdemeanor, and operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol under age 21.

Crean said Davis can sit up in a chair, take walks and play card games.

“If I could go back and do it over, we’d have practiced till 11:30 p.m., midnight, showered up, got ’em something to eat, took ’em back to my house, figured out how we were going to do it, got up the next morning, came back in here [Assembly Hall] shortly after 5, when it’s legal to practice again — if I knew that that situation was going to happen that night,” said Crean, noting NCAA rules only allow teams to practice until midnight.

On Monday during his weekly radio show, Crean told listeners Holt, starting guard Stanford Robinson and starting forward Troy Williams had

been suspended for Indiana’s first two exhibition games and the first two regular-season games. Crean didn’t say why Robinson and Williams were suspended other than acknowledging the infractions occurred during the summer.

Indiana’s school rules require athletes who fail drug tests to miss 10 percent of the season in their sport.

While Crean again steered clear of citing an official reason, he said he did add a fourth game to each player’s punishment.

It’s been a disconcerting trend for Hoosiers’ fans.

In September, junior guard Kevin “Yogi” Ferrell and Robinson entered pretrial diversion programs after being charged in April with consumption of an alcoholic beverage by a minor and possession of false identification. In

February, forward Hanner MosqueraPerea, now a junior, was arrested in Bloomington on preliminary drunk driving charges.

Former players such as Cody Zeller and Jordan Hulls used their Twitter accounts to urge the new Hoosiers to abide by the higher standards they helped set during Crean’s first rebuilding project in Bloomington.

“I understand some things have been said, and personally, I couldn’t agree more,” said Nick Zeisloft, a junior guard who played at Illinois State last season. “They’re correct and we need to follow that example.”

Crean’s usually friendly radio-show fans started asking pointed questions about why he should keep his job and whether he should take the blame for all these legal problems.

Taos Ski Valley to host Freeride World Tour qualifier in February

HAPPY TRAILS

It’s all downhill from here

By Cody Olivas The Taos News

T

he Freeride World Tour is going to be a lot different in the Americas than it has been the last couple of years, but at least Taos Ski Valley will be part of the picture.

Last season, North America was scheduled to host Freeride World Tour events in Kirkwood, Calif., and at Revelstoke in Canada.

Neither of those events happened.

Lack of snow forced the Kirkwood event to be moved to Snowbird, Utah, while the Revelstoke competition was canceled altogether.

Every scheduled event in Europe, on the other hand, went off as planned.

“We definitely work with more constraints in North America than we do in Europe,” Tom Winter, Freeride World Tour’s manager for the Americas said.

If the snow conditions aren’t ideal at a European venue, organizers have the option to venture out into the backcountry to find a new one.

For the uninitiated, the Freeride World Tour is downhill skiing on steroids (figuratively speaking, of course). Competitors navigate insanely steep and challenging terrain, the kind that defies our typical downhill or alpine events seen during televised international competitions like the Olympics.

The Freeride World Tour requires skill and bravado to which few weekend skiers have ever been exposed.

Last year, Los Alamos resident Garrett Altmann competed on the tour. Studying climate changes in the Arctic while working for Los Alamos National Laboratory, he used qualifying events like the one scheduled for Taos Ski Valley in 2015 to make it onto the world tour.

In addition to skiing, the Freeride World Tour also stages an event for snowboarding.

While the conditions are usually pristine in European resort locales high in the rugged terrain, it’s a lot harder for ski areas in North America to host a competition outside of resort boundaries because snow conditions are not often optimal.

A couple of Freeride World Qualifier events were also canceled last season, like Taos’ Salomon Extreme Freeride Championships.

After last season, the Europeanbased Freeride World Tour cut ties with its American partner, Mountain Sports International.

Recently, the tour joined forces with a new American partner — the International Freeskiers and Snowboarders Association.

What’s does the new partnership mean?

The association will do much of the behind-the-scenes work in Freeride World Tour events like Taos’ Salomon Extreme Freeride Championships. The event is back on the schedule. The date is set for Feb. 26-28 at the ski valley.

It will sanction the events, handle licensing and registration and also ensure judging standards. Beyond that, the resorts will essentially own their competitions.

They’ll have to handle their own marketing and the actual competition itself — whereas Mountain Sports International used to create the buzz and handle everything.

In that sense, the new partnership won’t impact the actual competitions too much, but it does mean that a lot of events that were worth qualifying points in the past aren’t any more.

Taos is one of only four four-star Freeride World Tour qualifier events — the top-tier of qualifiers — scheduled to take place in North America.

It will bring together some of the world’s elite skiers and snowboarders, giving the public a rare opportunity to see the best winter sports athletes on the planet.

Taos was actually the first North American four-star qualifier event, beginning its partnership with the

County staff and volunteer stewards have been repairing parts of the Rail Trail that had developed trench-like erosion channels during the summer rainy season.

Freeride World Tour in 2009.

When the Freeride World Tour and Mountain Sports International joined forces to make a unified world tour in 2013, the number of North American qualifiers increased.

The other four-star qualifiers in 2015 will take place at Crystal Mountain, Wash., Canada’s Kicking Horse, and Crested Butte, Colo.

Winter said he expected that number to grow by at least one, but didn’t know where yet.

A handful of two-star qualifiers are also scheduled to take place on the East Coast — giving points to events on the Ski the East Freeride Tour.

A new three-stop collegiate series will also be counted as two-star events.

The Subaru Freeride Series, on the other hand, which is operated by Mountain Sports International and included a handful of four-star qualifiers last year — including events in Crested Butte, Colo.; Snowbird, Utah; Big Sky, Montana; and Telluride, Colo. — will operate independently in 2015.

The Subaru Freeride Series hasn’t released its schedule for the season yet, but its events won’t be worth any qualifying points for the world tour anymore.

Eagle Nest boat ramps closed for season Eagle Nest Lake State Park has closed its remaining boat ramp due to decreased water levels.

The announcement was made on Oct. 1 and the closure took effect the following day.

The lake will remain open to canoeing, kayaking and other paddlecraft but all motorized boats will

Skiers in the worldwide Freeride World Tour events, held almost exclusively in Europe, face vertical drops like this one. The tour will have a qualifying event at Taos Ski Valley from Feb. 26-28.

The other big change is there won’t be a Freeride World Tour event in the lower 48 or in Canada this season.

The only North American event will take place in Haines, Alaska.

In Alaska, like Europe, there’s a lot more freedom to find ideal snow conditions at numerous different venues.

be prohibited from using the ramp and lake.

Officials say the lake, located near Eagle Nest and Angel Fire, will remain open to fishing from the shoreline. As soon as conditions allow for it, the lake will also be available during ice fishing season this winter.

The ramp closure is designed to prevent property damage during launching and loading of boats. The water level is so low that the concrete

The rest of the tour will take place in Europe — including stops at Chamonix Mont-Blanc, France; Fieberbrunn Pillerseetal, Austria; Vallnord Arcalis, Andora and Verbier, Switzerland.

ramp’s integrity can be compromised.

“Water levels are less than we hoped for this season and we want to make sure we safeguard boaters from property damage,” said State Parks director Tommy Mutz.

The ramp will reopen as soon as water levels rise, but officials hint the closure will remain in effect through the winter.

The New Mexican

t’s kind of a pity that a second segment of the Rail Trail has been closed by Santa Fe County for improvements. Autumn and winter are when our local vistas stand out, rewarding those who venture more than a mile from a trailhead.

From a viewpoint near the county water tank, one can get 360-degree views that include the distant Jemez, Sandia, and Sangre de Cristo Mountains as well as the closer prominences of the Ortiz, the Cerrillos Hills, La Tetilla and the volcanic vents of the Caja del Rio. But for now, Santa Fe County Public Works has closed a 5-mile segment of the Rail Trail from Avenida Vista Grande (milepost 11.5) in Eldorado to the Spur Trail (milepost 6.5 or about 1 mile out from the Rabbit Road Trailhead heading southeast).

It’s been at least two years since any public hearing has been held about the proposed improvements, but the wheels of local government have been slowly churning to accomplish these long-planned improvements.

Scott Rivers, the county’s project manager, calls the current plan the best compromise to balancing user desired enhancements with railroad easement stipulations (the state Department of Transportation now owns the tracks).

Big machines stage from the Nine Mile Road Trailhead, about midway along the closed section; they have been busy carving a new commuteroriented pathway. Many bikers consider the chosen trail width of 8 feet to be too wide and bemoan the loss of the old character of the trail, but there is a nice flow to the new trajectory. The “clear and grub” phase is nearly complete, and the recent rain should help with the next stage of subgrade compaction before six inches of crusher fines are added and compacted to provide a maintainable surface.

The current work plan also calls for rerouting the trail under existing railroad trestles for the times that the route crosses the tracks. This will reduce liability and improve safety should the train line (Santa Fe Southern) spring back to life at a future date.

If sufficient funding can be found, the improvements will eventually extend through Eldorado all the way to U.S. 285 via the Galisteo Preserve.

County staff and volunteer stewards such as Steve Griego and Tom Andrews have been busy this fall, repairing the first segment (1 mile in length) from Rabbit Road to the Spur Trail. It had developed trench-like erosion channels during the summer rainy season that could catch the wheel of unwary riders or the foot of runners absorbed in the music from their earbuds.

That section is still open, but may not be long enough for many trail users.

For the time being, riders and walkers might enjoy the paved segment of the Rail Trail which extends from Rabbit Road into the Railyard. All the intersections within the city limits are now monitored by flag-people who alert trail users to an approaching Rail Runner train, ever since two bicyclists were killed at two different intersections in the past year.

The reopening of the full Rail Trail is scheduled for next spring.

DEAR SHIRTLESS fake-yoga dude at Larragoite Park: You may think you are some light-filled seeker of spiritual truth but you are really just a self-centered jerk. Wednesday morning, my dogs (on leashes) chased after your dogs (NOT on leashes).

When my dogs hit the end of the leashes, I did a face-plant in the grass, losing my glasses and injuring my back. By the way, THAT is the reason YOUR dogs are supposed to be on leashes.) You did not have the Mindfulness nor the Humankindness to notice nor to help me up out of the dirt nor to help me find my glasses.

(Do you know how hard it is to find one’s glasses when one is not wearing one’s glasses?) Please contact me through this newspaper:I would like you to reimburse me for the cost of this ad and for the six physical therapy sessions it will require to reassemble my back, Schmuck.

Hi, my name is: Pearl

is a strong-willed, energetic, and outgoing girl. Even though she is an adult dog she needs a home that can commit to an hour or more of exercise, play and mental stimulation. Being a Bull Terrier, Pearl often finds herself needing something to do or someone to impress, a home with someone who can hang out with her for several hours a day would be ideal. We haven’t seen any signs of aggression. She would enjoy a mostly indoor home with lots of activity and attention.

sfnm«classifieds running. The van will be running fine, with no problems, except the buzzer is buzzing, the interior light is on and a picture of the van is lit up on the dash in red with a door open. Once the van reaches 15 mph, everything goes back to normal -- until I slow to under 15 mph, at which point the buzzing starts again. Can you help with this annoyance? I’m going WORN-OUT nuts. -- Danny HINGES CAN RAY: You say the car acts as if a door is open MAKE A CAR when it’s not, Danny.

THINK THE DOOR TOM: Well, it may be that a door actually is IS OPEN open.

BY TOM AND RAY MAGLIOZZI RAY: Not fully open -Dear Tom and Ray: as in, you make a left turn and you roll out of I have a 1996 Ford the car and end up at the Windstar in perfect condition that was driven curb. But not fully closed, either. for years by a little old TOM: I feel fortunate lady. She actually was from Pasadena, California. in saying that I haven’t seen a 1996 Windstar in The problem is the occasional buzzing. It the shop recently, but is like I left a door open there’s either a switch in while the engine is the doorjamb that gets

pressed when the door is fully closed, or on some cars the door latch also acts as the switch.

RAY: And unless that switch is fully engaged, the buzzer is going to come on, along with the dome light and dashboard warning.

TOM: My guess is that the hinges on one of your doors are worn out and the door isn’t closing correctly. That wouldn’t be a surprise on a car that’s approaching the two-decade mark.

RAY: If I had to guess, I’d try the driver’s door first. Why? Because it’s the door that gets opened and closed the most over the life of the vehicle.

TOM: You can try this experiment: Next time the buzzer goes o≠, roll down the window and get your whole arm on the outside of the door. Then pull the door closed as hard as you can. If you can get the buzzing to stop when you pull, and start again

when you release the pressure, you’ve found the o≠ending door.

RAY: If that experiment doesn’t work, you’ll have to engage an able-bodied assistant to help you push harder. While the buzzer is sounding, have your assistant stand outside the car and push on the door with both hands.

TOM: If that stops the buzzing, have that assistant run alongside the vehicle for the next few years, pushing on the door, until something more serious breaks.

RAY: Actually, if you get no results on the driver’s door, try the driver’sside sliding door next, and then work your way around the vehicle.

TOM: And once you’ve found it (or even if you can’t identify it on your own), a body shop probably is your best bet to have it fixed. Try to get it done before you go completely nuts, Danny.

Good luck.
