Burglaries drop to 10-year low Police say rise in drug arrests contributes to April’s decline in city, county property crimes By Nico Roesler The New Mexican

Santa Fe police say the number of burglaries in the city dropped to a 10-year-low in April, a decline they attribute to arrests for heroin

offenses. City statistics show a total of 88 burglary reports in April, including residential, commercial and auto burglaries, attempted burglaries and unlawful entries. Although residential burglaries alone rose in April to 41 from 32 in March, police say the overall burglary total hasn’t been this low since the department began keeping monthly property crime statistics in 2003. “Even more important is the overall numbers show a consistent downward trend,” Chief Ray

Rael said in a Monday news release. Residential burglaries from January through April reached a total of just 190, down 34 percent from the same period in 2012. The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office also saw residential burglary numbers slide for the period of January through April of this year. A total of 75 incidents were reported, down from 189 incidents during the same period last year, a drop of about 60 percent.

A Santa Fe man connected to two shooting deaths in 2012 in the same area off West Alameda Street pleaded guilty to five charges Monday — including one charge of possessing stolen jewelry belonging to the widow of homicide victim Ethaan Boyer. Boyer, 34, was a local artist who was shot and killed in his West Alameda Street home in February 2012. Police believe he had walked in Sam Leyba on a burglary. In a plea agreement with the state, Sam Leyba, 43, pleaded guilty to four counts of possession of stolen property in that case and one count of tampering with evidence in connection with the slaying of David Martinez, 53, which occurred just three weeks after Boyer’s death.

NATION&WORLD Detroit runs out of cash The Associated Press

DETROIT — The first report by Detroit’s emergency manager declares that the city is broke and at risk of running completely out of money — a financial meltdown that could mean employees don’t get paid, retirees lose their pensions and residents endure even deeper cuts in municipal services. If Detroit cannot avert disaster by reducing its debt payments, the only remaining option appears to be bankruptcy, a threat that looms large over Kevyn Orr’s urgent efforts to make deals with creditors and debt holders. Orr says he will have to seek concessions from those groups to keep the Motor City afloat. “On a cash-flow basis, we don’t have it. We’re broke,” Orr said Monday at a news conference. He said the city can make payroll through the rest of the year, but that some other bills and obligations are not being paid or are being deferred. “We can’t continue to do what we’ve been doing,” he said. “It’s probably a little worse than I expected. It’s severe. I mean it’s dire.” In March 2012, Detroit borrowed $80 million from Bank of America to avoid running out of money. Orr’s “first attention has got to be turned to making sure he has enough money to pay the bills he has coming in,” said James McTevia, president of McTevia and Associates, a Detroit-area turnaround firm. “If I’m a creditor getting paid for my current goods and services, I’m going to be more apt to work out on something I’m owed.”

ame was never her intent, Dr. Joyce Brothers often said. She was not yet 30, new to stay-at-home motherhood and struggling to help her husband stretch his pay as a medical resident when she came up with an ambitious plan: Transform herself into a boxing expert and try out for The $64,000 Question, a popular 1950s television quiz show. “Gee, a loser on those shows gets a Cadillac,” she once recalled, “and I could be a loser.” Instead, she won big and used her instant celebrity to establish a new media specialty — pop psychology. Brothers went on to become a household name, ministering to America’s collective psyche via TV, radio, magazines and newspapers. Part of her popularity stemmed from her engaging on-screen presence and willingness to publicly address what were then borderline taboo subjects, such as sexual fulfillment and infidelity. It was a jarring and significant achievement in mid-20th-century America, when television’s fictional couples were still portrayed as sleeping in separate beds. By showcasing her psychological expertise on NBC as early as 1958, she paved the way for others in her field to carve out careers on television and ultimately helped demystify and popularize psychology. Brothers, who held a doctorate in psychology from Columbia University, died Monday of respiratory failure after a long illness. She was 85. “She was the first to open up the public airwaves to private feelings. There was no one like that,” Ron Simon, curator of the Paley Center for Media in New York, said in 2006 in the Bergen County, N.J., Record. “Now, so many programs deal with these intimate matters.” Before she could jump from the halls of academe to pioneer what became known as “media psychology,” Brothers had to pitch herself to The $64,000 Question. The game show liked to feature contestants who seemed at odds with their area of expertise, so the exceedingly feminine psychologist claimed to be an authority on boxing. When producers bought it, she spent a few weeks turning herself into an expert, watching the Greatest Fights of the Century series and tracking down issues of the boxing magazine the Ring. “I just read everything,” she later said. Although she quickly established herself as a formidable contestant in the fall of 1955, show sponsor Charles Revson — head of cosmetics company Revlon — didn’t like what he saw. She wouldn’t wear makeup, and he

wanted her off the air. Producers instructed her to lose at the $16,000 level, but she refused to buckle, she told the Los Angeles Times in 1981. “They were going to knock me out with impossible questions, but they didn’t,” Brothers later recalled. “I’d memorized everything it is possible to know on the subject.” By December, she had won the top prize. Two years later, Brothers returned to win another $70,000 when she took on a group of former prizefighters on The $64,000 Challenge, a spinoff of the original show. Her winnings equaled about $1 million in today’s dollars, “enough to promise myself I’d never do anything I didn’t want to again,” she later said. When the scandal over quiz-show rigging erupted in

Abortion doctor guilty of murder

PHILADELPHIA — An abortion doctor was convicted Monday of first-degree murder and could face execution in the deaths of three babies who were delivered alive and then killed with scissors at his grimy, “house of horrors” clinic. In a case that became a grisly flashpoint in the nation’s abortion debate, Dr. Kermit Gosnell, 72, was also found guilty of involuntary manslaughter in the overdose death of an abortion patient. He was cleared in the death of a fourth baby, who prosecutors say let out a whimper before the doctor cut the spinal cord. Gosnell, who portrayed himself as an advocate for poor and desperate women in an impoverished West Philadelphia neighborhood, appeared hopeful before the verdict was read and calm afterward. The jury reached its verdict on its 10th day of deliberations. It will return May 21 to hear evidence on whether Gosnell should get the death penalty.

Police ID parade shooting suspect

1959, Brothers’ honesty was documented. Summoned to testify, she “survived unscathed,” the Times reported in 1981. They “asked me boxing questions all day long, and I got every one right,” Brothers said. In 1958, The Dr. Joyce Brothers Show debuted on NBC’s New York affiliate. The afternoon talk show dispensed advice on child rearing, love, marriage and sex. An instant hit, it was soon airing nationally. Moving to late-night TV in the early 1960s allowed Brothers to speak more frankly. The program ran for five years, one of a number of her advice shows that aired over the ensuing decades on television and radio. She also wrote a syndicated column that appeared in about 350 daily newspapers and was a frequent, often cheeky guest on television talk and game shows.

NEW ORLEANS — Police identified a 19-year-old man as a suspect in the shooting of nearly 20 people during a Mother’s Day parade in New Orleans, saying several people had identified him as the gunman. Police Superintendent Ronal Serpas said they were looking for Akein Scott of New Orleans. He said it was too early to say whether he was the only shooter. “We would like to remind the community and Akein Scott that the time has come for him to turn himself in,” Serpas said at a news conference outside of police headquarters. A photo of Scott hung from a podium in front of the police chief. “We know more about you than you think we know,” he said.

Bill allows doctors to help patients die MONTPELIER, Vt. — The Vermont House approved a measure Monday night that would allow doctors to provide lethal medication to terminally ill patients seeking to end their lives. If Gov. Peter Shumlin — a strong supporter of the bill — signs on, Vermont will join Oregon, Washington and Montana as states allowing physicians to provide deadly doses of medication to dying patients who seek it. The vote was a reversal of the defeat of similar legislation in the House in 2007 and marked the first time any legislature in the country had seen such a measure all the way to passage. By a 75-65 roll call vote, the House approved a bill largely copies a law passed by Oregon voters in 1997 for three years and then shifts to a system with less government monitoring.

Western brands support safety plan Bangladesh says garment workers can form unions By Farid Hossain and Julhas Alam

The Associated Press

SAVAR, Bangladesh — Major Western brands embraced a safety plan that would require them to help pay for factory improvements in Bangladesh as the nearly three-week search for victims of the world’s worst garmentindustry disaster ended Monday with the death toll at 1,127. Bangladesh’s government also agreed to allow garment workers to form unions. That decision came a day after it announced a plan to raise the minimum wage in the industry. The collapse of the eightstory Rana Plaza factory building April 24 focused worldwide attention on hazardous conditions in Bangladesh’s garment industry, where workers sew low-cost clothing that ends up on store shelves around the globe, including the U.S. and Western Europe. Swedish retailing giant H&M, the largest purchaser of garments from Bangladesh, and Britain’s Primark Stores announced that they have accepted a legally binding fire and building safety plan drawn up by Bangladeshi and international labor groups. The plan would establish an independent inspectorate to oversee factories, with powers to shut down unsafe facilities and require renovations paid for in part by Western retailers. The Clean Clothes Campaign, which seeks better working conditions in the global garment industry, praised H&M’s decision, saying it would pressure other retailers to sign as well. The agreement was signed earlier by two other companies — PVH, the owner of the Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein brands, and German retailer Tchibo. Others had refused to sign because, they said, the plan was legally binding and costly. Primark is one of the few retailers that have acknowledged that their clothes were being made in the Rana Plaza building at the time of the collapse. The building housed five clothing factories. Working conditions in the $20 billion industry are grim, a result of government corruption, desperation for jobs, and industry indifference. Minimum wages for garment workers are among the lowest in the world at 3,000 takas ($38) a month. For more than 19 days, Rana Plaza in the Dhaka suburb of Savar had been the scene of frantic rescue efforts. The Rana Plaza owner and eight other people, including garment factory owners, have been detained in the investigation. Bangladesh has 5,000 garment factories and 3.6 million garment workers. It is the third-biggest exporter of clothes in the world, after China and Italy.

Survey finds public paid limited attention to issue By Donna Cassata

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — House Republicans pushed ahead Monday with their investigation of the deadly assault on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, last year as President Barack Obama asserted that GOP charges of a cover-up are baseless. The latest Republican focus is the independent review that slammed the State Department for inadequate security at the installation before the twin nighttime attacks that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans on Sept. 11, 2012. Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, asked the two authors of the investigation — diplomat Thomas Pickering and retired Adm. Mike Mullen, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff — to meet privately with committee staff to answer questions. Democrats countered that if Congress wants to talk to them, Issa should hold an open hearing. Republicans insist that the Obama

of the report by the Treasury inspector general for tax administration. However, when Lerner responded to inquiries from the House oversight committee, she didn’t mention the fact that tea party groups had ever been targeted. On Monday, President Barack Obama said he first learned about the issue from news reports on Friday. “If, in fact, IRS personnel engaged in the kind of practices that had been reported on and were intentionally targeting conservative groups, then that’s outrageous and there’s no place for it,” Obama said. “And they have to be held fully accountable, because the IRS as an independent agency requires absolute integrity, and people have to have confidence that they’re applying it in a nonpartisan way, applying the laws in a non-partisan way.”

told Issa that he should bypass private depositions from the two men and go directly to an open hearing on May 22. The report found that “systematic failures and leadership and management deficiencies at senior levels” of the State Department meant that security was “inadequate for Benghazi.” The report absolved former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, faulting lower level State Department officials. Four State Department officials were reassigned or resigned in the wake of the Pickering-Mullen report. For all the Washington furor, a Pew Research Center survey out Monday found the public paid limited attention to last week’s House hearing in which a State Department official who was in Tripoli described his frustration as the assault unfolded in Benghazi. The survey found that 44 percent of Americans said they were following the hearings very or fairly closely. The number is down from the 61 percent who said they were following the initial stages of the investigation in October. The survey of 1,000 adults found a split over whether the Obama administration is being honest about the attack and how Republicans are handling the issue, with partisanship affecting opinions.

the talking points as a politically driven “sideshow,” pointing out that he said “act of terror” on Sept. 12 and the talking points assessment was similar to the daily presidential briefing he had received. New details on the emails emerged last week. Obama argued that lawmakers had reviewed them several months ago but suddenly they were treated as fresh revelations. Issa has argued that Congress needs to get the facts. He wants to hear from Pickering and Mullen about their investigation and he asked that they turn over documents, communications, lists of witnesses, notes and other material by Friday. He pointed to the testimony of three State Department witnesses last week who criticized the Accountability Review Board’s work as incomplete and flawed. “The White House and the State Department have touted the ARB’s report as the definitive account of how and why the Benghazi attacks occurred,” Issa said in separate letters to Pickering and Mullen. “It is necessary for the committee to understand whether the criticisms of the ARB’s work that we heard from witnesses on May 8, 2013 are valid.” But the top Democrat on the committee, Rep.

Burglaries: 4 high-profile drug-trafficking busts since June 2012 Continued from Page A-1 Sheriff Robert Garcia likened the county’s tactics to those implemented by the city. He said targeted patrols have increased police presence in problem areas, and drug arrests have helped keep burglary numbers down. The Santa Fe Police Department’s Operation Full Court Press, implemented in last June, also targets “hotspot” areas in the city and keeps track

of known burglars. Santa Fe police public information officer Celina Westervelt said Monday that a significant increase in drugrelated arrests, specifically involving heroin, have helped lower burglary numbers because offenders who commit property crimes to support a drug addiction are in jail rather than breaking into homes. Westervelt said Santa Fe police officers working with the Region III

Drug Enforcement Task Force have eliminated four major drug-trafficking organizations in the city limits since last June. In order to be classified by law enforcement as a drug-trafficking organization, the group must include at least five midlevel drug dealers. The Region III Drug Enforcement Task Force is comprised of officers from state police, Santa Fe County sheriff’s deputies, Santa Fe police offi-

cers and other area law enforcement. Westervelt said another direct result is that the price of heroin in Santa Fe has skyrocketed. She said a Santa Fe police sergeant assigned to the Region III task force has reported that dealers are charging $500 more per ounce for heroin in Santa Fe than in surrounding communities. The sergeant also reported that the purity of heroin has decreased

Rising: Parents, staff credit principal for successes Continued from Page A-1 Thomas were proficient in reading and 17 percent were proficient in math. By 2012, those numbers had doubled. The school is hoping that 2013 test results will show that 52 percent of students are proficient in readying and 45 percent in math. That would be in line with state proficiency rates; in 2012 about half of New Mexico’s children were proficient in reading and about 43 percent were proficient in math. The New Mexico Public Education Department gave Ramirez Thomas an F in 2012 under the state’s new A-F grading system. But when the state updated those grades over the summer of 2012, it raised the school’s grade from an F to a C, making Ramirez Thomas one of the few in the district to jump up by at least two grade levels. Teachers like Abeyta are convinced that both teachers and students at Ramirez Thomas benefited from the turnaround model. “I feel like the professional development we got, the extra learning time for students, the staff development and camaraderie we built within our teams and within our staff has helped me as a teacher,” he said recently. “And I feel I can still learn more.” But now the extra funding is ending. So are the chances for staff to travel to reading and writing workshops at places like Columbia University in New York City. Time in class will be shorter by an hour. Parent liaison Antonio Gonzales and Dean of Students Scott Blanchard are leaving. Principal Robin Noble said she will find ways to maintain professionaldevelopment opportunities, and she is optimistic that the school will continue its upward swing. Many within the school credit Noble with leading much of the turnaround by using the federal funding to turn the school into a community center — where parents not only feel welcome but also play an integral role in their children’s academic success, where instructors collaborate on best learning practices for reading, writing and math, and where teachers enjoy the art of teaching. “I don’t think you can change people’s passion for learning and teaching just because you don’t have the money,” said teacher Peggy Gallegos Brewer, a 36-year teaching veteran who has spent the last four years at Ramirez Thomas, running a bilingual reading class. She said 71 percent of her students tested at their grade level in English last year, and the other 29 percent made “significant growth.” Ramirez Thomas is one of the district’s newer schools. Named for former school board member Belina Ramirez and longtime Larragoite Elementary teacher Anita Gonzales Thomas, the school opened in 2003 on Santa Fe’s southwest side. Nearly all of its 460 students in kindergarten through fifth grade currently qualify for free or reduced price lunches, an indicator of high levels of poverty among the school’s students. In its first two years, Ramirez Thomas met Adequate Yearly Progress standards under the federal No Child Left Behind Act. But then it began falling behind. In 2010, Ramirez Thomas was the ninth lowest achieving school in New Mexico and ranked at the bottom among Santa Fe public schools. Ramirez Thomas is one of nine New Mexico public schools to receive a total of about $11.3 million in federal grants to turn things around. Those

dramatically, Westervelt said, because dealers are mixing the drug with other substances to turn a profit. Rio Arriba County also is reporting fewer burglaries so far this year. Española’s weekly Rio Grande Sun reports that during the first four months of 2013, just 68 burglaries were reported throughout Rio Arriba County, compared to 106 reported in the same period in 2011 and 136 in 2012.

Ramirez Thomas Elementary School Dean of Students Scott Blanchard, speaking with Principal Robin Noble in her office Thursday, will lose his position because federal funding for the job has run out. While extra help like that of Blanchard has helped the school make a turnaround over the past three years, many attribute the effort’s success to Noble and a dedicated teaching staff. JANE PHILLIPS/THE NEW MEXICAN

“

We are going to lose instructional time. We know that. We are going to lose funding. We know that. But the things that will carry over are the professionalism and dedication and morale of the teachers and staff. ... Those are foundational elements that we can take with us even if the money is not here.” K.C. Dutcher, Ramirez Thomas Elementary School counselor schools were given four options: u They could close and transfer students to better performing schools. u They could become a charter school or be taken over by an education-management group. u They could totally transform. The most popular choice for struggling schools nationwide, this option required them to replace their principal, start a new teacher-evaluation system, provide professional-development opportunities and create new support services for students. u The fourth option — the “turnaround” model — was what the district chose for Ramirez Thomas. This option includes many components of the transformation model, with a few added requirements. Teachers had to reapply for their jobs, and the school had to replace at least 50 percent of them before moving forward. In addition, any principal of a turnaround school who had been on the job more than two years had to go. Noble had taken over Ramirez Thomas just one year before the district chose the turnaround approach, so she wasn’t replaced. But half the school’s staff members were fired. A federal report suggests that twothirds of the nation’s schools using the turnaround model have made considerable gains. But the research is limited.

When the turnaround began at Ramirez Thomas, Noble started a Thursday morning coffee meeting for interested parents to visit with one another and get involved in school activities. Last Thursday, about a dozen mothers and one father — most of whom speak Spanish — sat around discussing the future of the school. Some felt that it was Noble and the staff, and not the federal money, that has made the difference in the school’s renewed reputation. Other acknowledged that the grant money allowed the district to put the right teachers in place to give the school a shot at success. Almost all said their children have been doing better in reading and math over the past three years, with one proud mother noting that her kindergartner daughter is already reading and writing in both Spanish and English. Maricela Gomez said she is worried about the long-terms effects of the loss of the additional money. “I’m happy with the way my kids are doing, but I want my grandchildren to receive the same quality of education that my children get,” she said. Parent liaison Antonio Gonzales spent much of Thursday packing up his office. He said he likes to think that his job “gave parents the sense that no matter what language they speak, they have a voice in this school.”

The parents, he said, “are aware that all good things come to an end.” Noble said school counselor K.C. Dutcher, who speaks Spanish and English, will bridge some of the gap that Gonzales’ absence will create. Dutcher said he is optimistic the school will stay on course, despite the loss of money, learning time and personnel: “We are going to lose instructional time. We know that. We are going to lose funding. We know that. But the things that will carry over are the professionalism and dedication and morale of the teachers and staff, and all the professional learning that has happened here over the last three years. Those are foundational elements that we can take with us even if the money is not here.” He said Noble, and not the money, may prove to be the determining factor in the school’s future. “I do not know how it would work if she were not here anymore — she is the glue that holds everything together,” he said. “It’s not over,” Noble said. “Our commitment to the students at all levels doesn’t end because the grant money ends.We’ve been good stewards of the [federal] money. We utilized national professional development opportunities, established a [reading, writing and math] curriculum, and built a school culture that is committed to changing the lives of our students and their parents. It’s their school. They own it.” “The school has continuity now,” Blanchard said. “It will have that continuity after the money goes and people leave. Nobody is going to be here forever, but it’s the culture that will carry the school forward.” Over the past three years, the Public Education Department has overseen the school’s progress, Noble said. On June 6, she will take part in a final meeting with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office of School Turnaround to review its accomplishments and discuss how to sustain them.

Monsanto: Court says farmer deprived firm of profits Continued from Page A-1 bachelor farmer from Indiana who wanted to use the patented seeds without paying for them. Vern Bowman admitted he liked Monsanto’s Roundup Ready seeds because they produce soybean plants that can tolerate weed killers sprayed on the field. Each year, Bowman bought the Monsanto seeds for his first crop of the season. But later in the year, he turned to what the court described as a “less orthodox” approach for his second crop of the season. Rather than pay again the premium price for more Monsanto seeds, he purchased soybeans from a local grain elevator. This mixture,

which came from nearby fields, contained soybeans that had been grown from Roundup Ready seeds. After eight years, Monsanto learned of Bowman’s scheme and sued him for patent infringement. The company argued that Bowman was benefiting from its patented seeds without paying for them. A judge agreed with Monsanto and awarded the company $84,456 in damages. To the surprise of the agribusiness and biotechnology industries, the Supreme Court agreed to hear the farmer’s appeal in Bowman v. Monsanto. The farmer and his lawyer cited the doctrine of “patent exhaustion,” by which companies with

some patents can benefit from only one sale. If the high court had agreed, the decision could have upset the industries that depend on years of profit from their patented inventions. But the justices decided the doctrine of “patent exhaustion” cannot be applied generally to products such as seeds, which reproduce themselves. “Bowman planted Monsanto’s patented seeds solely to make and market replicas of them, thus depriving the company of the reward patent law provides from the sale of each article,” Kagan wrote. “Patent exhaustion provides no haven for that conduct.”

riam Street. Santa Fe police have charged Martinez’s brother, Felix Martinez, with second-degree murder in the shooting. Leyba was accused of helping Felix Martinez transport the body to an area near Leyba’s home along the Santa Fe River, across the street from Torreon Park. The two allegedly put a gun near the body in an attempt to make David Martinez’s death look like a suicide. Santa Fe police have said they believe David Martinez killed Boyer because DNA from the Ethaan lens of a pair of Boyer sunglasses found at the homicide scene matched David Martinez’s DNA. Nobody has been charged in Boyer’s death. Deputy District Attorney Tim Williams said there is not enough evidence to charge Leyba or anyone else with homicide, accessory to a homicide or even burglary in connection with Boyer’s death. However, a clause in Leyba’s plea agreement states that he would not be able to challenge any future charges related to Boyer’s death on the grounds of double-jeopardy. “There’s no way to say what might come out in the future,” Williams said. A cousin of Leyba, who attended the hearing but asked not to be identified, said Leyba fell in with the wrong crowd after allowing David Martinez to live with him for several months prior to the shooting. Leyba, the cousin added, was a licensed electrician who was “naive, passive and peaceful.” “I think it’s natural when someone is killed to seek justice, but making the wrong person pay for it is not justified,” the cousin said. Under the plea agreement, Leyba was sentenced to six years in prison, with 31/2 years suspended, followed by nine months of electronic monitoring and three years of probation. Leyba has already spent about 14 months in the Santa Fe County jail and, with credit for good time served, he will only serve another six months behind bars to fulfill his prison sentence. No members of Boyer’s family attended Monday’s plea hearing, but about 10 residents of the Casa Solana, Torreon and West Alameda neighborhoods appeared to voice their concern about Leyba’s presence in their neighborhood. Williams spoke for the group, noting the La Nueva Casa Solana Neighborhood Association’s efforts to curb crime in the area. “In all the cases I’ve prosecuted, there has never been quite as much of a gathering of people in an effort to deal with the terror they feel,” Williams said. “They’ve felt terrorized by these cases.” Nicole de Jurenev, president of the La Nueva Casa Solana Neighborhood Association, said after the hearing that crime in the area has dropped since the arrests of Leyba and Felix Martinez. Jurenev said she is concerned that in six months, when Leyba is released from jail, he will fall back into committing property crimes. “He’s now back in the same place that caused him to offend in the first place,” Jurenev said. “We don’t feel any safer.” Felix Martinez, who was released from jail in June 2012, two months after being charged with murder, is awaiting trial in August.

Minnesota is Film takes new look at Bataan 12th state to OK gay marriage By Teesa Cerojano

Filipino director Borinaga Alix Jr., right, instructs actors on the set of his film Death March inside a studio in suburban Marikina, east of Manila, Philippines.

The Associated Press

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Minnesota is set to become the 12th U.S. state where gay couples can get married after a final legislative vote Monday that will let the weddings start Aug. 1. Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton has pledged to sign the bill, and scheduled a ceremony at 5 p.m. Tuesday on the front steps of the Capitol in St. Paul. Minnesota is now the first state in Midwest to legalize gay marriage by legislative vote, and the third nationwide in just 10 days, joining Rhode Island and Delaware. Thousands of gay marriage supporters thronging the Capitol erupted into deafening cheers after the Senate’s 37-30 vote; the House passed it last week on a 75-59 vote. “Members, God made gays,” Sen. Ron Latz, a Democrat from a suburb of Minneapolis, said during the Senate’s emotional four-hour debate. “And God made gays capable of loving other people. So who are we to quarrel with God’s intentions?” The gay marriage issue shifted quickly in Minnesota, with the Legislature’s vote coming a little more than six months after voters defeated an amendment that would have banned gay marriage in the state constitution. The groups that led the campaign against the amendment swiftly turned to pushing for legalizing same-sex marriage, an effort aided when Democrats captured full control of state government in November. Only one Republican senator, Branden Petersen of suburban Andover, voted for the bill. Three Democrats from rural districts voted against it. Republican opponents said the bill alters a centuries-old understanding of marriage as a societal building block that benefits children. “Forcing others to give you your rights will never end well,” said Sen. Dan Hall, a Republican and a pastor. “It won’t give you the recognition you desire.” Hall said gay marriage supporters have told him he’s on the wrong side of history, but he said, “the truth is, I’m more concerned about being on the right side of eternity.” But supporters, too, cited religious faith and relationships with gay family members and friends in shaping their vote for the bill. Many spoke of the benefits of their own marriages. “I could never and I would never deny the kind of recognition and all the other positive things I get out of my marriage with my husband, to anyone else,” said Sen. Vicki Jensen, a Democrat from the southern Minnesota city of Owatonna. Republican opponents argued that the bill’s provisions meant to protect religious freedom were insufficient, raising Now Servicing All Makes and Models 2 years or 24,000 mile warranty on Parts & Labor.

concerns it could force merchants in the wedding industry to accept business from gay couples even if the merchants object to such marriages. “We must respect religious freedom at the same time as we advance rights,” said Sen. Carla Nelson, R-Rochester. “This bill does not do that.” Still, with passage looking inevitable Monday, vocal and visual opposition was muted. Don Lee, of Eagan, placed a tombstone on the Capitol lawn with the words “R.I.P. MARRIAGE 2013.” “The legislation being passed today is the end of marriage as we know it in Minnesota,” Lee said. “It’s a transformation from a forwardlooking sacrificial institution to one focused on adult desires.” Supporters and opponents were close to evenly matched during the House debate, but Monday was dominated by gay marriage backers. They taped blue and orange hearts on the Capitol steps, creating a path into the building for lawmakers with the signature colors of their movement. In the rotunda, demonstrators sang songs including “Over the Rainbow,” ”Going to the Chapel” and “The StarSpangled Banner.” St. Paul Mayor Chris Coleman ordered the Wabasha Street Bridge near downtown festooned in rainbow-striped gay pride flags, and temporarily renamed it the “Freedom to Marry Bridge.” Minnesota’s most famous opponent of gay marriage also weighed in. U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, an ardent supporter of banning gay marriage when she served in the state Senate, released a statement expressing disappointment in a vote she said “denies religious liberty to people who believe in traditional marriage.” But gay couples were already thinking about wedding planning. Jeff Moses and his legal husband, John WesterfieldMoses, of Minneapolis, were married in Iowa four years ago, when the state’s Supreme Court ruled to allow it. Their anniversary is Aug. 23, a few weeks after a Minnesota law would take effect, and the couple is considering having a marriage ceremony here, too. “Any excuse for a party,” Jeff Moses said. Jessica Flatequal and Maria Bevacqua, a lesbian couple from Mankato who have been together for a decade, were jubilant after the vote, as supporters spilled out of the front of the Capitol. “We’re excited to become equal citizens under the law,” said Bevacqua. Asked whether they would get married, both women laughed. “Well, neither of us proposed today,” Flatequal said. “But now that’s going to be part of the discussion.”

MANILA, Philippines — A film that weaves together stories of the anguish and desperation of American and Filipino soldiers during the notorious Bataan Death March could have been shot on location in a large-scale production. Filipino director Borinaga Alix Jr. instead chose to film Death March in black-andwhite and almost entirely inside a studio using hand-painted backdrops, with closeups of actors’ painted faces portraying their struggles with nightmares and hallucinations in one of the bloodiest episodes of World War II. Death March is competing at the Cannes Film Festival that opens Wednesday. Some 70,000 starving, sick, and exhausted American and Filipino prisoners of the Japanese Imperial Army — including many from New Mexico — marched under a brutal sun for five days in April 1942, covering 65 miles from the Bataan peninsula to a prison camp in Tarlac province. Survivors told stories of atrocities, with many of the prisoners stabbed or decapitated by their Japanese captors if they so much as stopped to drink water or collapsed to the ground. Thousands died from illness or exhaustion. After reading the script by Rody Vera,

Alix said he was struck by the war’s emotional and psychological effect on soldiers. “It felt like they were sleep walking their nightmares,” Alix said in an interview. He said he wanted to highlight how the event shaped the soldiers’ psyche. Instead of the initial plan to go on location, he consulted the production designer and decided “to shoot in a controlled environment where all the elements were synthetic, except the actors, to heighten the surreal feeling of the film.” The multicharacter movie stars Filipino actors Sid Lucero as a Filipino soldier who fights to stay sane after his friend is shot in front of him, and Filipino American actor Sam Milby as an American soldier taking

Japanese actor and producer Jackie Woo, who has starred in two previous films directed by Alix, also plays several roles. “At first I was surprised because he was Japanese,” Alix said of Woo. “I know it is a very delicate subject matter especially for them, because the world has stereotypes of how the Japanese were during that time.” But he said he was happy Woo loved the script, which last year won first prize for screenplay at the Palanca Memorial Awards, the Philippine version of the Pulitzer Prize.

Teachers Who Inspire: Partners in Education honors educator who runs ‘dynamic classroom’

Superintendent stressed that the budget supports the district’s strategic plan to increase student achievement and give principals more autonomy in deciding what their schools need to succeed.

andy Sena said her parents, Joe and Bessie Sena, are the best teachers in the world. But on Monday morning, it was Partners in Education and Sweeney Elementary School staffers and students who honored Sandy Sena with a Teachers Who Inspire award during a “surprise” student assembly held in the school’s gym. “I love coming to school every single day,” said Sena as she accepted the award in front of her peers, students and family members. Joe and Bessie were there with some of Sena’s siblings and friends. They all remained hidden behind a big partition on the stage until the award was announced by Partners in Education Executive Director Ruthanne Greeley. The school kept the award a secret, putting the assembly together under the guise of presenting a student choir. In fact, singing did occur as the first-graders performed a little tune about this being the happiest time of the year — and no wonder, given that summer break is just a week away — and the fifth-graders serenaded Sena with a rendition of Eric Clapton’s “Change the World.” Sena stood in the back of the

gym during the event, seemingly oblivious to the real purpose of the gathering, until Greeley, while reading a letter detailing the reasons for the award, noted that the Sweeney recipient of the award was known for helping her students at night and on weekends, running a “dynamic classroom,” and for her mane of “bright red hair.” That tipped off the red-headed Sena, and the jig was up. When Sena found out that everyone in school knew about the award except her, she chided the attendees during her accep-

tance speech with, “I wasn’t expecting this at all. Shame on all of you liars.” Sena, a native Santa Fean who attended Agua Fría Elementary School as a child and graduated Santa Fe High School, started volunteering at Sweeney 19 years ago, she said. She earned her teaching certificate one year later and thus has taught at the school for 18 years. Her fellow teachers, parents and students all sang her praises Monday morning. “She wants us to succeed,” said fifth-grader Luis Chavez. Savannah Palmer,

“ She loves us, she takes care of us, she wants us to learn.”

another of Sena’s students, said of her teacher, “She loves us, she takes care of us, she wants us to learn.” Asked if she is looking forward to summer break, Palmer said, “No. I don’t want school to be out. Miss Sena is the best teacher ever!” Bessie Sena — who said she and her husband, Joe, are celebrating 60 years of marriage in June — said daughter Sandy is the only one of 10 children to go into the teaching profession. “But I’m her teacher at home,” Bessie Sena said. Partners in Education, which works with the school district and other entities to improve the quality of education in Santa Fe, started the Teachers Who Inspire award in 1992 after an anonymous donor approached the group with a plan to honor outstanding teachers in the district. Teachers are nominated by their peers, and recipients receive a glass sculpture of an apple and $1,000. The donor’s hope is that deserving teachers utilize that $1,000 for their own personal use, but history indicates that many teachers apply some portion of it toward their classroom. Partners in Education will honor six more Teachers Who Inspire through early June at various public events at which the teachers in question will be surprised — hopefully.

A budget proposal for the next school year presented to the Santa Fe school board Monday night would mean the district couldn’t offer more than a 1 percent raise in teacher salaries, and that plans to move forward quickly with technological upgrades would be halted. However, the spending plan would make room for some of the site-based decision-making that Superintendent Joel Boyd has encouraged among school principals. The board is expected to approve a nearly $90 million operating budget for 2013-14 at its May 23 meeting. The district presented its probable budget during Monday’s public study session. In short, as Boyd and Carl Gruenler, the district’s chief financial officer, noted, the budget allows little room for flexibility to respond to challenges, changes or opportunities. The state funds public schools though a complex State Equalization Guarantee, with each student assigned a particular unit value. A high school student, for instance, is worth 1.25 units. Different values are assigned to special-education students and English-language learners, as well as to elementary and middle school students. Though the state Legislature just increased financial support by 4 percent, expenditures — including retirement contributions, a state-mandated 1 percent staff pay increase and rising insurance costs — jumped up about 3.5 percent this year. In addition, the district is following the city’s lead in raising the minimum wage for its employees, although, as a statefunded agency it is not required to do so. Still, unlike last year, when it relied on about $2.2. million in cash reserves to cover gaps, the board will likely not have to make such a decision this time. Boyd stressed that the budget supports the district’s strategic plan to increase student achievement and give principals more autonomy in deciding what their schools need to succeed. “We asked ourselves, ‘What is our educational plan and how best can we invest in that?’ ” he said. “We looked at the needs of the kids first — not the needs of accountants.” Boyd also made it clear he is not relying on expected teacher vacancies to save money in the upcoming budget. He said his goal is to have “zero vacancies” come the first day of school in mid-August. This past year, when he stepped in as superintendent in August, he discovered there were at least 40 teacher vacancies in schools. Now, there are about a dozen openings. Still, the unlikelihood of a larger pay raise than the state-mandated 1 percent may rankle some teachers, who have been lobbying for higher salaries for some time. Bernice Garcia-Baca, president of the NEASanta Fe, said after Monday’s meeting that the union will continue to campaign for a higher raise during the collective bargaining process. Board member Susan Duncan said after the meeting that she would like to find a way to increase staff salaries before the May 23 meeting. The district must submit an approved budget to the state Public Education Department by June 3. Boyd said most people feel accountants are the only ones who understand school budgets. On Saturday, the district invites the community to a public presentation on the budget report from 10 a.m. to noon at the Educational Services Center on Alta Vista Street.

Woman facing 48 animal cruelty counts to claim 10 seized dogs Ex-vet must pay $6K a month for animals’ care until case closes By Nico Roesler The New Mexican

The Edgewood woman accused of 48 counts of animal cruelty says she wants to claim 10 of the remaining 43 dogs that Santa Fe County animal control officers seized from her property last month. Debra Clopton, 48, who originally faced a $27,000 bill to pay for the dogs’ care at the Santa Fe Animal Shelter & Humane Society, now must pay $6,000 a month to keep the 10 dogs she wants until the conclusion of her criminal case, which take up to nine months. Because Clopton is only claiming 10 of the dogs — a county ordinance allows a

resident to keep up to 10 — the county is now free to put the remaining canines up for adoption. On May 10, Clopton paid $6,240 for a surety bond to claim the 10 dogs and pay for the time they’ve spent in the animal shelter since their seizure on April 1. Part of that payment also covered the euthanization of three of the original 48 dogs found on the property, which suffered neurological problems. Two puppies seized also died due to illness. The Santa Fe animal shelter has been burdened since April 1 with the cost of caring for the seized dogs. Since then, 42 puppies have been born to six of the animals. The puppies, because they were born in the county’s custody, are county property and also will be available for adop-

tion as soon as they are old enough. Animal control officers confronted Clopton, a former veterinarian, after neighbors reported a dead dog in her yard and out-of-control barking. During an April 15 court hearing, animal control Officer Shawn Kesler described conditions in and around Clopton’s home as “unlivable” and “not the kind any animal should live with.” Clopton was convicted in January on 10 counts of having unlicensed animals, two counts of having more animals than the five allowed per household in Rio Rancho — where she lived before moving to Edgewood — and two counts of not vaccinating for rabies. Clopton didn’t testify at another hearing held Monday and declined to answer questions from news reporters. Her attorney, Scott Pistone,

Since April 1, 42 puppies have been born to six of the dogs seized from Debra Clopton’s home. The puppies, because they were born at the Santa Fe animal shelter, are considered county property and will be available for adoption as soon as they are old enough. COURTESY SANTA FE ANIMAL SHELTER & HUMANE SOCIETY

Singleton made it clear during the hearing that if Clopton can’t afford to pay for all 10 dogs, she may opt to pay the amount required to keep, say, two dogs, which would be $1,200 per month. “If she fails to post at all, she forfeits her interest in the dogs,” Singleton said. Singleton also ordered Clopton to pay an additional $1,000 to the county before next Monday for the days between April 1 and May 10 not accounted for in Clopton’s original payment of $6,240 on Friday. Deputy District Attorney Dorie Biagiantie-Smith estimated it might take six to nine months before the case goes to trial.

Inmate wins court fight in 1979 murder case

Should the city of Santa Fe prohibit stores from handing out single-use plastic bags and/ or require them to charge a fee for customers who want a paper bag? The city’s Business and Quality of Life Committee is scheduled to discuss the latest proposal for a “reusable bag” ordinance at its 11 a.m. meeting Tuesday at City Hall, 200 Lincoln Ave., and could vote to recommend that a city councilor formally introduce the ordinance. The proposal has been under development for more than a year. While the first draft took a broad swipe at all kinds of disposable bags, the current proposal would include a ban on distribution of thin-film bags that would take effect about six months after the ordinance becomes law. Retailers would be permitted to offer shoppers a grocery-sized paper bag, but they would have to charge customers a 10-cent fee to distribute a bag. Meat and produce bags would still be allowed at grocery stores, and small paper bags would be permitted. City Councilor Rebecca Wurzburger, who chairs the committee, has said she doesn’t want to begin City Council deliberations on the idea until the committee has consensus on details. Cities including Austin, Texas, and Los Angeles have passed laws addressing plastic bag distribution.

He pointed out that a federal appeals court in 1989 had overturned the state Supreme Court and determined that an inmate needed to serve 10 years, rather than 30 years, in a similar parole dispute. The 1980 law sought to require those convicted of firstdegree murder after July 1, 1979, to serve at least 30 years before being eligible for parole. However, the federal appeals court said the law couldn’t be applied retroactively. The justices noted that Skidgel had unsuccessfully challenged his sentencing several times in post-conviction appeals in District Court, but it was the first time his parole eligibility issue had made it to the state’s highest court.

New city traffic County to mull community solar plan to vote signals met with Commission on proposal today mixed reactions By Staci Matlock The New Mexican

Yellow arrows causing confusion among drivers on Cerrillos Road By Julie Ann Grimm The New Mexican

Santa Fe’s busiest road has a new traffic-signal feature that is intended to keep traffic moving more smoothly but is causing confusion for some drivers. Five intersections on Cerrillos Road now feature a flashing yellow left arrow signal that appears when opposing traffic has a green light. City Traffic Engineer John Romero said his office has received a mixed reaction to the signals since they were installed last month. “People are calling to make sure they understand what to do,” he said. “Most of them have the right understanding, but they just want to be crystal clear. We have actually heard from more people who have compliments about them, and who say they are glad they are up instead of a just a steady red arrow.” The signals were installed when the city implemented a new timing plan on Cerrillos Road between St. Michael’s Drive and Airport Road. If other roadway timing plans indicate the signals would help, they might be installed on other city streets, Romero said. With the new signals, Romero said, there are more chances for left turns when there is no oncoming traffic in the opposite lanes. The important thing for drivers to understand, however, is that the flashing yellow left turn arrows still require the driver to yield to oncoming traffic, he said. Steady yellow means the same thing, he said, except that it’s a warning that the signal will soon change. So far, according to Romero, the timing plan is working. “What we have noticed that the speeds have gone up a little bit and the travel times have gone down, and so we measured an improvement and it has done what is was supposed to,” he said. “This isn’t some-

thing that we concocted completely on our own. It is something that has been studied for a while nationally and is being implemented throughout the country. … We’re not allowed to put anything on the street until it makes the Manual on Uniform Traffic Devices, and it doesn’t make that manual unless it’s tested.” Denise Zendel, a state worker who lives on the southern edge of the city, said she first noticed the signals last month and didn’t know what to make of them. “When I saw them flashing, I was thankful that I was not trying to turn left. I thought they were broken or there was a malfunction that the city had not fixed yet,” she said. “I thought ‘That’s gotta mess up traffic.’ ” Zendel said she asked around, however, and learned that the signals weren’t a mistake. “It might behoove the city to do a little more public education about this,” she said, “They should invest in some [public service announcements] or some some TV commercials. “ All driver’s education classes teach the same rule of the road for left turns: Drivers must yield to oncoming traffic unless they have a green arrow. Now, they’re also teaching about the flashing yellow arrows. Donny Robertson, who teaches driving safety courses, said the new signals are a mixed bag. “For an adult driving, I think they are very nice because you can go at anytime,” he said. “The left turn is the most dangerous turn, and the safest way to make a left turn is to have a traffic light with green arrow. [Flashing yellow signals] are very beneficial to the movement of traffic, but as far as safety is concerned, for a teenager, I don’t think it’s very safe. Younger drivers are not cautious enough and don’t have enough experience.” Cerrillos Road intersections with the new signals include Calle del Cielo, Siler Road, Camino Carlos Rey, Lujan Street and Camino Consuelo.

Police notes The Santa Fe Police Department is investigating the following reports: u Sandra Perez, 58, no address listed, was arrested on a charge of shoplifting at about 12:16 p.m. Sunday at Wal-Mart, 3251 Cerrillos Road. u Jay Padilla, 33, 6332 Entrada de Milagro, was arrested at about 5 p.m. Sunday outside of Smith’s, 2308 Cerrillos Road, on a charge of aggravated battery. The report said he beat another person unconscious. u Adam Oschwald, 26, of Taos was arrested on two charges of aggravated battery on a household member and one count of interference with communications at about 5 a.m. Monday at the Warren Inn, 3357 Cerrillos Road. He is accused of beating his girlfriend with a metal bar and then choking her. The Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the following reports: u A .22-caliber handgun was stolen from a house off La Vela Road near Airport Road sometime between April 21 and May 10. u Someone stole a water pump and a green hose from a house in the 300 block of County Road 84 in El Rancho between May 8 and May 11. u A burglar broke into a shed on Rons Road off N.M. 14 between May 4 and May 11 and stole several power tools. u Adam Tapia, 79, was

arrested on two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon on Sunday following a confrontation with two neighbors. The neighbors told deputies that Tapia was driving recklessly around the area of Tapia Entrada before shooting a rifle in the direction of a woman’s house. u Someone stole a digital camera from a car parked in the 1200 block of Bishops Lodge Road in Tesuque between May 9 and May 10.

DWI arrest u Steven Neves, 35, 147 Alto Lane, was arrested by Santa Fe police on charges of aggravated driving while intoxicated and reckless driving near the intersection of Cerrillos Road and Siler Road at about 2:21 a.m. Saturday.

Speed SUVs u The Santa Fe Police Department listed the following locations for mobile speedenforcement vehicles: SUV No. 1 at Sweeney Elementary School from 7:25 to 8:15 a.m. and 2:10 to 2:55 p.m., and on Airport Road at Fields Lane at other times; SUV No. 2 at César Chávez Community School from 7:25 to 8:15 a.m. and 2:10 to 2:55 p.m., and on Jaguar Drive at Cerros Grande at other times; SUV No. 3 at Camino Carlos Rey between Plaza Blanca and Plaza Verde.

The Santa Fe County Commission on Tuesday will vote on a resolution asking state regulators and the state’s largest utility to support a new plan for helping residents tap into solar energy. Under the proposal, those who can’t install their own rooftop photovoltaic systems could still buy electricity produced from the sun through a community system. “It is a good option for people who rent, or don’t have a roof that can support [a PV system], or who perhaps can’t afford to install solar,” county renewable energy specialist Craig O’Hare said. With community solar, a municipality or other entity builds a solar photovoltaic system in which residents can buy or lease a panel or two and pay for the electricity at a fixed rate,

O’Hare said. People who buy into the system are called “subscribers.” They could reduce and potentially zero out their electric bills if the panels they purchase produce more than they use, a benefit called net metering. Kit Carson Electric Cooperative has built a small community solar project in Taos. Boulder, Colo., also recently completed one. The Santa Fe City Council has approved a community solar resolution similar to the one that County Commissioner Kathy Holian will present to her fellow board members today. “There is a lot of interest in our community in doing solar,” Holian said. “I’ve received 200 or 300 emails in support of this.” Both Public Service Company of New Mexico and its state regulator, the Public Regulation Commission, will have to get behind community solar for such projects to move forward. PNM, an investor-owned utility, has to make sure such a project won’t hurt its bottom line or the pocketbooks of customers who

don’t directly benefit from community solar, Holian said. The Public Regulation Commission has to ensure community solar is legally and financially viable. The city and county have been discussing community solar options with PNM, trying to find a solution that makes everyone happy. One issue will be how to keep tabs on the power used by community solar participants and produced by the solar panels to which they subscribe. “It would require some kind of what I call ‘virtual net metering,’ ” O’Hare said. “This is not about the electrons generated by solar going to the subscribers. Once you put electrons on the grid, they go everywhere. This would require virtual accounting of the electrons.” Tracking the amount of power produced compared to the number used by a community solar subscriber will require some sophisticated accounting. There’s no law that forces PNM or the Public Regulation Commission to accept com-

munity solar currently as part of the utility’s energy portfolio. State legislators killed a community solar bill introduced in the last lawmaking session. Still, if Santa Fe city and county could work out a viable deal with PNM for community solar, “it could be a game changer,” Holian said. In the meantime, Santa Fe County also is looking at ways to relaunch an effort to create a special assessment tax district that would allow homeowners to obtain loans for installing a renewable energy system without needing cash up front. Such programs nationwide have been stalled at the federal level over concerns about the impact renewable energy loans would have on federal housing mortgages. Holian said other places are figuring out ways to restart the programs and the county is exploring options.

operation, authorities said in a news release. The Department of Public Safety Special Investigations Agents, Santa Fe County Sheriff’s Office and Santa Fe Police Department conducted what they called a “minor compliance and shoulder tap operation,” the statement said. The operations involved sending minors who were trained for the exercise to visit 14 locations. As a result, individual servers and the three restaurants were issued administrative citations for selling or giving alcoholic beverages to minors. The servers will be referred to the District Attorney’s Office for selling or giving alcoholic beverages to minors. Staff and wire reports

Funeral services and memorials LENNON JAMES MCADAMS Lennon James McAdams, 92, passed away peacefully on Friday May 10, 2013. Born in Greenfield, Tennessee on November 4, 1920, Len was an energetic, positive family man whose presence impacted all of those with whom he interacted either briefly or throughout his very productive, long life.

Home sales in city show first drop in 10 months By Bruce Krasnow The New Mexican

Ramon Garcia of Española, with Landscape & Nursery Services, walks out of The Firebird on Monday with drip-irrigation supplies for a job.

THE FIREBIRD

More than a drip of sales Fire’s in the name, but much of the profit is in the irrigation game

By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

he Firebird sounds like the name of a business that should sell fireplaces and hearths but not products for the opposite end of the elemental spectrum such as irrigation systems. Despite that, Gene Butler and Mary Blake-Bulter’s business at 1808 Espinacitas St. is thriving. The store is split down the middle. On one side, dozens of fireplaces, some lit and others not, rest on display shelves and create a sort of homey atmosphere. In contrast, the other side of store has thousands of tubes, valves and other watering parts all in cabinets. Butler and Blake-Butler purchased The Firebird in 1988. Then the drip-irrigation system merchandise was restricted to a couple of shelves. Butler said he knew the side venture, though, could be bigger. “I thought ‘someone needs to be selling drip-irrigation systems,’ ” he said. Now, The Firebird’s sales are about 50-50 between the hearth and fireplace and the irrigation inventories. But one of the business’s biggest challenges is dealing with two distinct inventories that change yearly, Blake-Butler said. Additionally, The Firebird also sells other home products such as grills and central vacuum units. Another big challenge is conveying to people that a drip-irrigation system isn’t as expensive as it sounds, Butler said. For example, a drip-irrigation system for a swath of land 20 feet by 70 feet will cost about $150 to $200. “People can be a little intimated,” Butler said. Drip irrigation uses a series of

In brief Hospital Week

tubes and emitters — think smallbut-directed sprinklers — that are supposed to decrease the amount of water a homeowner uses. Emitters direct water to the plant’s roots, unlike flood irrigation, such as hose watering or sprinklers, that relies on water sinking to the roots. Often, the drip systems are on timers, Butler said, which means people can set up the system and then, mostly, forget about it. Moreover, a simple drip-irrigation system can be attached to an outside water spigot, and the tubing and the emitters can be above or below ground. Homeowners can opt for more complicated systems that can be buried underground or multitiered systems that water separate areas different amounts. Moreover, Butler said most people are capable of installing the systems themselves.

“It’s adult tinker toys,” Butler joked. But part of the business model, Butler said, is educating the consumer, especially those who are unfamiliar with the dry conditions in Santa Fe. Kelley Nace, a 27-year employee at The Firebird, said his biggest challenge is finding time for all customers when the seasons merge. He said that irrigation customers are generally in-and-out of the store whereas those shopping for fireplaces need more guidance. Other challenges, Butler said, involve learning and providing new technology, the most recent of which is electronic pilot lights for stoves. Another challenge of drip system is the multitude of inventory parts. Butler said that he had about 1,700 different parts. Most of them are into a computer system now, but

Butler said that when he bought the business, employees use to write invoices by hand. Some employees, Nace among them, have remembered bits and pieces of different part numbers, which help make using the computer even faster. Employees also used to read out every needed part numbers on the phone, a long process, Bulter-Blake said. “The fax machine changed our life significantly,” she said. The city of Santa Fe is in its water-restriction phase, which means residents can only water three times a week and only between the hours of 6 p.m. and 10 a.m. Watering violations fines start at $20 and cap at $200. These rules don’t apply to irrigating new plants, watering for chemical treatments or checking the functionality of irrigation systems.

ne month does not make a trend, so it’s hard to read too much into the housing sales numbers for April. But Alan Ball of Keller Williams Realty Santa Fe writes in his blog that the month saw the first decline in year-over-year sales since May 2012. “The residential real estate results of yearto-date 2013 show our real estate market recovery has slowed enough to warrant more careful review. Or is it just a one month blip? Why is it that we cannot keep pace with the spring of 2012 in home sales? April 2012 saw 144 sold, while April 2013 had a total of 112, a drop of 22 percent. “We had monthly increases for 10 straight months and 14 out of the last 15, until this April,” he writes. Still, the 12-month cumulative sales gain is still pretty healthy, and Ball doesn’t think the inventory issue is crimping out buyers. Other agents are not so sure — and many say there is just not enough inventory in the under-$300,000 price range to show buyers as evidenced by the cold calling around to various homeowners looking for those who may want to sell. When one agent called an owner in the Bellamah area (a New Mexican employee), asking when she planned to sell, the response was not encouraging: “When I die.” uuu One need only go to the national parks in Montana, Utah and Arizona to see the fascination Asians and Europeans have with the West. In densely populated countries, the idea of vast open space is inconceivable. An article published May 10 in the Financial Times by Henry Shukman sums up that feeling as he writes about driving in New Mexico. “The state of New Mexico is larger than the entire United Kingdom yet has just 2 million people, most of them in the comparatively fertile north. The vast south, an area the size of mainland Britain, has only half a million inhabitants. It’s empty, quiet, beautiful. It’s like the world 1,000 years ago, when there were only 250 million humans on the planet. And it’s a great place for a drive.” Shukman takes readers to the central part of the state often passed over by other tourists — Carrizozo, Alamogordo, White Sands National Monument and the Organ and Sacramento mountains. “The rolling ranch land here is so spare, tufted with grass so dry, that to run 100 head of cattle, a rancher may need thousands of acres. Always in the distance there are mountains, sometimes blue-looking, sometimes yellow as straw, sometimes red like old terracotta, reminding you that this isn’t easy country for a traveller — at least, not until they put in the roads, which are smooth, well-maintained, and broad. They’re luxury roads compared with the equivalent lanes of the European countryside. You get a series of yellow speed warnings for even the mildest of bends, before settling back into unblemished straightness.” Online readers can access the piece by searching for “Great Drives: New Mexico.”

“

As current neighbors of Bobcat Bite, we will miss this world-renowned ‘diner/drive-in and dive’ landmark. Our visitors from everywhere arrive with their own request to have a Bobcat Bite green chile cheeseburger! We and our friends will follow John and Bonnie Eckre into town. I think the 1950s character of Garrett’s Desert Inn will be just the right new location for Bobcat Bite — by that name or another. I don’t expect to see crowds of diners patiently waiting for an hour or more at the original adobe diner along Old Las Vegas Highway. It is a quaint and a folkloric building, but mostly, the community loves the family ambiance, service and great food over the decades. It would be nice to recreate the picture window and bird-feeding station in the new home! Continued great success!” B.G. In this day and age, when you buy a business, “ understand that a seller’s word or a handshake means

absolutely nothing. Too bad, but that’s the way it is. Every last detail must be in writing. All the T’s crossed and the I’s dotted. It must be reviewed by at least one lawyer or more. Then you sign in blood, pay your money and hope to hell it has all been done right. Anything less and you’ve got these kinds of problems. I wish ’em well in their new venture. I will sure give them a try.” J.F. I don’t dare forward this to my husband. It will “ ruin his day. He is greeted by ﬁrst name at Bobcat

Bite, and I have no doubt we will be supporters of the new restaurant.” K.W.

“

It’s a sad day in Santa Fe and the small communities that surround Bobcat Bite. I will miss the burgers, but most of all, I will miss the kindness and hospitality that my family and I receive when we walk through that squeaky screen door. It’s not everywhere the waitress knows her customers by name. I will wait patiently for Bonnie and John to open their new place. The Panzers better serve some excellent food or they won’t last very long, especially since their place is somewhat out of the way for some people. See you before June 9, Bonnie.” E.P.

A waste of perfectly useful guns W

hile millions of relinquished or confiscated guns are currently being destroyed by federal, state and local governments, why can’t they instead be expropriated for use by law enforcement agencies and/or the U.S. military? At first glance, it would appear that destruction of these firearms will make our streets safer; however, many of these guns will be replaced by new ones sold by gun dealers.

Strengthen marriage I was glad to see the Santa Fe City Council pass a resolution supporting marriage equality for gays in New Mexico. It is the first step in making sure that we provide marriage equality for all people. It is our duty as citizens to make sure we advocate for social policies. I am a heterosexual woman who has been married for 35 years. I have many friends that are gay. These people should be allowed the same dignity and rights that I have been automatically provided. Marriage is not a religious issue but instead a civil rights issue. I believe that allowing same-sex couples to marry would be a good policy. Allowing gay couples to marry in today’s world would strengthen the institution of marriage. Maggie Gonzalez

Addicted to caffeine Most people in the U.S. do not realize they are addicted to a stimulate that is grown in South America. The stimulate comes from a plant in Colombia that is called “coca.” Coca leaves are the source of caffeine and cocaine. Each year, coca leaves help create millions of tons of coffee, which almost all U.S. citizens have to have very quickly each morning. And why is the most popular drink named Coca-Cola? That drink, and Diet Coke, contain much caffeine. Anti-drug laws in the United States make cocaine very illegal. So why is coffee’s caffeine very popular and legal if it comes from the cocaine plants? David Lee Bennett

Calling Korean veterans

Save Legal Tender

The armistice ending open warfare in Korea was signed July 27, 1953. The Korean War veterans who returned to the U.S. resumed their lives with no fanfare, most merging back into civilian life with only their families and close friends realizing the ordeal they had survived. Since that time, U.S. military personnel have continued to be deployed to South Korea, along the 38th parallel, as a protective force against aggression from North Korea. The Korean War Veterans Association (KWVA) was formed in 1985 and awarded a congressional charter in June 2008. Korean War veterans and Korean Service veterans, those enforcing the 38th parallel demilitarize zone since the armistice, are eligible for KWVA regular membership. Visit the Korean War Veterans Association website (www.kwva.org) to obtain a membership form and/or call the association’s membership office at 217-3454414. That office will also advise you of the closest KWVA chapter.

The Legal Tender has become a major asset to enhancing my love for the area. We cannot let a historic landmark that unifies the area close.

Mora County reclaims its rights

Mora drilling ban bad for state

ohn Olivas and Alfonso Griego are heroes in the hearts and minds of the “majority” in Mora County today. These two commissioners, who ran their campaigns to keep frackers out, permanently banned “big oil” from their county when they voted into law the first-in-the-nation countywide ban on drilling and hydraulic fracturing. To those unfamiliar with this new law, called the Mora County Community Water Rights and Local SelfGovernment Ordinance, it could appear singularly focused against hydrocarbon extraction, but it extends well beyond prohibiting Shell Ltd. and Oklahoma drillers and frackers. It is a vote for self-determination. And it is a vote for democracy! Under this law, Mora County citizens have inalienable rights to unpolluted water to produce healthy food and to nourish their bodies, livestock and land — rights to a fossil fuel-free future that supports local energy independence and health — and a right to speak up to protect the rights of ecosystems — the natural environments of streams, rivers, aquifers and wetlands, so they, too, can exist and thrive — all 1,244,160 acres. The state of New Mexico works in tandem with corporations to ensure, through a “permitting” process, industry’s access to community “resources” in exchange for severance taxes. Under this existing structure of law, communities are powerless to protect themselves from the ensuing harm. We have only to look at the molybdenum mining in Questa, Taos County, or fracking in San Juan County, northwestern New Mexico, to see the devastation these corporations leave behind in their wake — polluted and

depleted water, poisonous air and land, earthquakes and cultural and community-collapse syndrome. Reclamation jobs funded by the federal government are a far cry from “health, safety and protection of the welfare” of the people. And this very lack of protection, which is built into the exemption package winked at by industry and government, has motivated communities such as Mora County to pass their out-of-the-box Bill of Rights law. What people are discovering today is that “We the People” is not an empty, dusty phrase, nor are people without rights to protect their communities. Under the New Mexico State Constitution, Article 2, it declares, “All political power is vested in and derived from the people.” Additionally, all municipal governments (county, city, town and village) are empowered by state statutes, chapters 13 and 14, to pass county ordinances into law. It was these golden nuggets of knowledge that Mora County folks were awakened to when they contacted the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund (CELDF), a nonprofit environmental law firm in Pennsylvania, which helped them organize and draft their local Bill of Rights. The process to bring about such a seemingly simple, reasonable and rational assertion has taken more than five years in Mora County. It was a process led by the perseverance of a community majority who believed that they had the fundamental right to say “no” — people who were empowered to bring this forward with the help of two of three supportive locally elected officials. Kathleen Dudley is the chairwoman for the New Mexico Coalition for Community Rights.

he Mora County Commission has turned its back on New Mexican families, school students and the unemployed to embrace the environmental lobby with open arms. In a recent decision that has left many residents scratching their heads, the commission decided to ban oil and natural gas development in their county. With the New Mexican oil and natural gas industry serving as a primary engine for both the state’s economic recovery and publicschool funding, blocking drilling has severed people in that area from employment opportunities, property rights, and additional education funding. The Mora County Community Water Rights and Local Self-Government Ordinance, which bans oil and natural gas drilling, reflects extreme left-wing environmentalist ideology and was passed, not by popular mandate, but by a 2-1 vote of the Mora County Commission. The Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund (CELDF), a Pennsylvania-based environmental lobbyist group, drafted this economically backward ordinance in the name of environmental conservation and pushed it onto Mora. Only two people voted for it, but, unfortunately, all of Mora County has to deal with the consequences. What the commission and these out-of-state obstructionists fail to realize is that energy production is perhaps the most important sector in New Mexico’s economy. The oil and natural gas industries contribute a combined $5.73 billion dollars of investment and nearly 33,000 jobs to the state economy. In the context of our country’s weak economic situation, that feat cannot be understated. That’s 33,000 people that can put food on their families’ tables, pay their bills without worry, and even save for retirement. In energy-producing areas

of the state, the local economies are near full employment. In contrast, Mora County’s unemployment rate is a staggering 15 percent — double the national rate. How can the county commission and CELDF explain their choice to block employment opportunities and economic development to the many jobless in this community? One quarter of the state government’s total revenue comes from taxes and royalties paid by oil and natural gas companies. Forty percent of this money goes to pay for public K-12 education and another 20 percent helps to fund state universities. Interestingly, Commissioner John Olivas said in a recent radio interview that he has no problem accepting state revenue from energy development in other counties, but he is unwilling to allow any production and contribution from his own. The hypocrisy is blatant, and the end result is less funding for students across the state. So why did CELDF engage in a cross-country lobbying effort in a small New Mexico county? According to executive director, Thomas Linzey, Mora residents had been “too chicken to [pass the ban] over the last 10 years,” so he and his Pennsylvanian environmentalists decided it was time to push their agenda from the top down. This ban on drilling and fracking is way off the mark. Fringe environmentalists paranoid about fracking water contamination — something that has literally never happened in fracking’s 60-year history — have pushed a destructive policy on Mora. Blocking energy development keeps desperately needed employment and investment opportunities from being generated by the state’s most reliable industry.

U.S. retirement crisis looms

By Matt Miller

Special to The Washington Post

he Dow has cracked 15,000 and the S&P is near record highs, so it’s time to pop open the Champagne and celebrate, right? Well, absolutely, if you’ve got a bunch of money in the stock market. Which means first you’d have to be an American with savings. Which means you’re a rare American, indeed. “Dow 15,000” is the perfect time to take stock of an unappreciated part of our national predicament. Yes, we face a jobs crisis, a schools crisis, an immigration crisis, an infrastructure crisis, an inequality crisis and a college affordability crisis (just to name some current favorites). But the sleeper crisis, the Next Big Shoe To Drop, is the retirement crisis. By definition, a retirement crisis begins with a savings crisis. Consider: According to research summarized recently by the New America Foundation, “nearly half of Americans (43.6 percent) do not have enough savings to cover basic expenses if they were to lose their source of stable income. These 132.1 million ‘liquid asset poor’ Americans include many members of the middle class and upper middle class: more than a quarter of households earning between $55,465 and $90,000 per year — the entire range of which is above the median household income of $50,054 — have less than three months of liquid savings. Over 30 percent of all households do not have a savings account at all” [emphasis added]. Let’s emblazon these facts on our collective psyche. Millions of families who earn more than the median income have less than three months of savings put aside. Millions of people with less money are living paycheck to paycheck. Families who at least owned their own houses have had their net worth eviscerated by the housing meltdown, which blew out the backstop on which countless Americans depend. A 2011 study found that half of U.S. families couldn’t put

Reform pensions for legislators

S their hands on $2,000 within 30 days if an emergency struck. As the authors wrote, that $2,000 amount “reflects the order of magnitude of the cost of an unanticipated major car repair, a large copayment on a medical expense, legal expenses, or a home repair.” How do we think these families will fare when they’re not just grinding their way through a short-term squeeze but eventually trying to support themselves in retirement at anything close to their standard of living when they were working? John Edwards turned out to be sleazy, but the man had a point: We’ve become “two Americas.” This divide in moods and fates is never clearer than at times when markets hit new peaks. Some of us rejoice. Most of us barely notice. The “good news” is irrelevant. A decade of hype about “the ownership society” hasn’t changed the fact that the vast majority of Americans have precious little saved or invested. Instead, years of wage stagnation, plus soaring prices for the ingredients of middle-class life (such as health care or college tuition) has made the crunch — and the disconnect between the

two Americas — stark. People will say we need to become thriftier, as Asian nations are. If you’re young, that’s good counsel. If you’re 59 and undersaved or 62 and unemployed, it’s a little late for Ben Franklin-style homilies. The entire social and fiscal debate ignores this monster of an issue, but it’s only a matter of time. The kids are moving back home when they graduate and can’t find work. Soon, grandma and grandpa are going to be moving in, too. There’s a reckoning ahead that policymakers and the news media haven’t begun to think clearly about — or focus the public on. What’s the answer? A good place to start is the New America Foundation’s recent report, “Expanded Social Security: A Plan to Increase Retirement Security for All Americans” by Michael Lind, Steven Hill, Robert Hiltonsmith and Joshua Freedman. The authors show that the two private legs of the famous “three-legged retirement stool” — pensions and savings — won’t come close to delivering adequate retirement income. (The third leg, of course, is Social Security.) So they would add a universal flat benefit to Social

Security to supplement the earnings-based benefit that exists now. This benefit would roughly equal the poverty line; when combined with the existing system, the average worker would have 60 percent of his or her working-age income replaced vs. 40 percent today. One way to fund it would be through a chunk of the proceeds from the value-added tax that’s almost certainly coming in an aging America. Canada, Japan and Luxembourg apparently do something like this today. The New America Foundation plan is a rare Washington example of an attempt to move the boundaries of debate so they’re more equal to the magnitude of the challenge. There are details to debate and refine. But combined creatively with steps that might make traditional Social Security more generationally fair, Social Security “Part B” could become a touchstone in the coming conversation that even a soaring Dow can’t help us avoid. Miller, a senior fellow at the Center for American Progress and co-host of public radio’s Left, Right & Center, writes a weekly online column for The Washington Post.

Rodeo redo will cause more burdens

egarding the Our View (“Rodeo redo raises questions,” May 1), I echo the concerns and add these thoughts. Where is there evidence that Santa Fe can even support an arena that large? With all the other options like casinos, the convention center, Albuquerque venues, hotels, where is there proof that this will be a viable concern? There is no need for this in Santa Fe. I understand the rodeo wanting to maximize the land. But this is the wrong use given it is a residential neighborhood and fronts the only main artery on the south side. This kind of project belongs near N.M. 599. This is a nightmare in the making not only for nearby residents who will bear the traffic and noise, but for all who rely on Rodeo Road and the tax burden with which we will get stuck. Linda Cole

Rob Dean did not find the ever-elusive formula for perfection during his long, remarkable tenure as managing editor of The New Mexican. Still, he probably came closer than anyone else in that position during the 45 years that I’ve been a close observer. Among his many credits: Accepting the challenge to debunk the myth that diversifying the editorial staff would sacrifice quality. May just rewards follow in retirement.

Spot the plate Tourism is the life’s blood of our town and I am happy to report that it still seems to be quite healthy. Having lived in New York City for most of my life, it hit me how many different license plates I saw in Santa Fe, so I tried a little experiment. For the last month, April 9 to May 9, I played the children’s game of seeing how many I could spot within the city limits. It surprised me that even as ski season ended, I counted 35 different states. Those included Washington, the Dakotas, New Hampshire, New York, Florida and many more. There were even two plates from different provinces in Canada and one from Mexico. I plan to resume the game during the International Folk Art Market, Spanish Market and Indian Market, when I wonder if I will find all 50 states and still more far-flung locations represented.

erving in the New Mexico Legislature doesn’t pay much up front — but long-term benefits sure are sweet. An investigation by Associated Press reporter Barry Massey details just how sweet. Legislators — who definitely deserve benefits for the work they do — don’t contribute much to their pension funds but still can receive tens of thousands of dollars long after they are out of office. The system needs reform. For example, legislator Dan Foley did not win re-election. Soon after, he began receiving his pension. Trouble is, Foley was just 39. For a $5,000 contribution, Foley eventually will receive some $450,000 in benefits paid for by taxpayers. We like the stance of another Republican representative, Dennis Kintigh of Roswell. “Pensions are for people when you are old and are not able to earn a living anymore.” He tried to establish a minimum retirement age of 62 for legislators but could not gather enough support. Foley is hardly the only ex-legislator raking in comfortable pensions. Some 30 former legislators (and their survivors) are receiving more money than Foley. Most outrageous? Former Democratic Senate leader Manny Aragon — in prison for taking bribes — has made $204,000 since 2005. Surely, the second reform after setting a retirement age would be eliminating pensions for anyone convicted of stealing from the taxpayers. You end up in prison, you lose benefits. Right now, legislators are eligible to receive retirement benefits at any age so long as they have served 10 years in office. How much they receive depends on how long they served, as well as how much they received in a daily expense allowance while serving. But they don’t pitch in much themselves. In 2012, for every $1 legislators contributed, taxpayers contributed $43. That’s in contrast to public employees, who also receive pensions. In that case, for every $1 an employee paid, taxpayers paid $1.12. In other words, public employees fund much of their own retirement — and certainly can’t start collecting at age 39. Now, it’s fair to point out that legislators don’t receive a salary. They serve without pay, getting only the daily expense rate, often spending thousands of their own dollars to live and eat in Santa Fe during the sessions. That doesn’t mean they deserve tens of thousands of dollars a year once they are retired. Reform won’t happen without public outcry — legislators are unlikely to cut their own benefits without pressure. But in a world where private pensions are vanishing and benefits for public employees are under attack, it hardly is just for legislators to keep raking it in. The reforms can be simple. Set a minimum age to begin receiving the pension; don’t allow felons to collect; require legislators to contribute more — just like they are asking state workers to do. We don’t disagree that citizen legislators deserve compensation for their service. But we would prefer it come in the form of a stipend rather than a fat pension check. With a fair part-time salary, we could even dump pensions for legislators altogether. By paying now, taxpayers would be off the hook for paying later.

The past 100 years From The Santa Fe New Mexican: May 14, 1913: The Allison Presbyterian Mission school has purchased a plot of land adjacent to the school grounds from U.S. Sen. Thomas B. Catron. The land is at the Northwest corner of the school’s grounds, and will be used for athletic games. The school now has plenty of room for lawn tennis, basketball and any other amusements which the board of regents sees fit to introduce. Workmen have been busy for the past few days tearing down the picket fence in front of the school and replacing it with a substantial iron fence with a concrete foundation. May 14, 1963: Gallup — Investigation of an alleged sale of a 6-month-old baby girl on a Gallup street is continuing. McKinley County Sheriff D.F. Mickey Mollica said the mother of the child told him she sold the baby about a month ago to a tourist couple for $4. The sheriff said that while he arrested the woman on an intoxication charge, a thorough check of statutes failed to turn up a New Mexico law making it illegal to sell children. The Asst. Dist. Atty. Joe Rich is continuing a check of the statute books. Neither authorities nor the parents have any idea where the child now is. The white purchasers, driving a Texas-licensed car, were headed for California and would later return to Texas. The child is Indian. Federal authorities questioned said there was no federal statute upon which a charge could be made.

CANNES FILM FESTIVAL

Perennial favorites with new offerings By Michael Phillips

Chicago Tribune

hen the 66th Cannes Film Festival opens Wednesday, it’ll do so with a big bash of a movie, not in the competition: Baz Luhrmann’s The Great Gatsby, based on the novel by F. Scott Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald’s drunken revels up and down the Cote d’Azur in the 1920s remain the stuff of literary and liver-related legend. The Cannes buzz among American cinephiles, journalists and critics, not to mention programmers, sellers, buyers and dreamers, has morphed into a nervous and rather unseemly refrain: Forget the film. The Great Gatsby is one of several hundred movies in half as many languages screaming, murmuring, jockeying for attention at the world’s most magnetic film festival. Some compete for the storied Palme d’Or, the prize won in past years by, among others, Taxi Driver, Pulp Fiction, 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days and last year’s winner, and eventual Academy Award honoree, Amour. This year’s main competition jury, headed by Steven Spielberg, will assess and debate 20 titles, many directed by auteurs on whom Cannes has smiled fondly in previous years. Five of the 20 come from American directors. They are: Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, represented by their ’60s folkie pastiche Inside Llewyn Davis; James Gray, a steady Cannes presence, directing a period piece starring Joaquin Phoenix and Marion Cotillard, The Immi-

LAS VEGAS, Nev. — O.J. Simpson is back in a Las Vegas courtroom to ask for a new trial in the case that sent him to prison in 2008. The former football hero and a new set of lawyers hope to convince a judge during a hearing that began Monday that trial lawyer Yale Galanter had conflicted interests and shouldn’t have handled Simpson’s case. Simpson appeared in court wearing a blue jail uniform. He entered the courtroom in handcuffs, flanked by guards. Simpson is serving nine to 33 years in a Nevada prison for armed robbery.

St. Michael’s senior tracking lead for state title Berhost four shots off pace at the A-AAA State Golf Championships

By Will Webber The New Mexican

SOCORRO — The leader in the clubhouse isn’t necessarily the player some people may have expected, but that’s just fine for one staring up at the top spot. Defending state champion Zach Berhost struggled — his assessment, not anyone else’s — to an opening-round 78 in Monday’s first round of the Class A-AAA State Golf Championships at the New Mexico Tech Golf Course in Socorro. He sits four strokes behind Albuquerque Hope Christian’s Sean Carlon entering Tuesday’s final round. Carlon was the most accurate player on the course off the tee box, parlaying that consistency to a 2-over 74. Half a dozen players are within five shots.

Tiger wins by keeping his poise

Berhost and Carlon played in the same foursome Monday. “He’s a friend, and it’s always interesting to be in a place where you can see how the players you’re competing with are doing,” Berhost said. Almost as soon as he finished that statement, he started in on another in which he lamented his struggles on the green. His putting game, he said, wasn’t nearly where it should have been. “You know, I was confident coming in — I felt really good about the way things were going,” Berhost said. “It’s just one of those things. I didn’t putt well and some of my shots just weren’t there.” Still, he finished strong by driving the green on the 328-yard par-4 18th. He drained a 10-foot birdie putt to gain a little momentum at the midway point. Where Berhost was somewhat inconsistent, Carlon was

Making an impact for the Giants Outfielder Pence batting .281 with seven homers for the NL West leaders

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

ONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus have never had a conversation longer than a couple of minutes, and rarely about golf. Maybe it’s because they already think along the same lines when it comes to winning tournaments. The Players Championship was another example of how Woods rarely beats himself. Nicklaus was under the oak tree at Augusta National last month after hitting his ceremonial tee shot when he talked about one that got away, the first time he had a share of the lead going into the final round of a major and didn’t win. It was the 1971 Masters, and he found the water trying to reach the 15th green with a 3-wood. “I don’t like to waste a tournament Tiger Woods on one shot,” Nicklaus said. “If I was today thinking about strategy of what I wanted to do on that, I probably wouldn’t have done it. I put myself out of the tournament. One shot shouldn’t be a shot that puts you out of the tournament.” The island green on the TPC Sawgrass is nothing like the 15th at Augusta National, but it’s hard not to think about Nicklaus when reviewing the hole that settled a weekend duel between Woods and Sergio Garcia. Woods was standing on the 17th tee Sunday when he looked over and saw Garcia approaching the par-5 16th green with a putter in hand, realizing he was there in two and at worst would make birdie to tie Woods for the lead. The pin was in its traditional Sunday location, the back right corner behind the bunker. Finding land is always the priority. From there, it’s a bonus to catch the ridge that feeds the golf ball down a gentle slope toward the hole. “The thing is, you can get baited into hitting it over there, and that’s the hard part,” Woods said. “I thought that the prudent play for me was hit it in the center of the green, even left-center, and try and hit kind of a pull-cut. It I hit a pull-cut, it’s going to have a little bit of distance to it, and it might have the shape where it might land up on top and feed down. But when I hit it, a little bit of gust came up and it stalled out.” The ball stayed on the front of the green, leaving a difficult putt from 45 feet. Woods hit a lot of good putts that didn’t go in Sunday. This might have been the best putt that he wasn’t expecting to go in. The pace was perfect, 3 feet away, and he made his par. Mission accomplished. Garcia, who two-putted for birdie on the 16th, was standing on the 17th tee watching Woods make his par. The Spaniard won The Players Championship in 2008 in a playoff on the 17th hole. Paul Goydos came up short and in the water, Garcia found the green. This wasn’t a playoff. Garcia, however, went at the flag

one win away LeBron-led Heat pound Bulls, take 3-1 semifinal series lead The Associated Press

HICAGO — Forward LeBron James scored 27 points, and Miami nearly matched a franchise record for points allowed in a playoff game, pounding the listless and short-handed Bulls 88-65 on Monday night to take a 3-1 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinals. The 65 points allowed were only two more than the all-time postseason low for a Miami opponent, and it was easily the worst offensive performance by a Chicago team. Never before had the Bulls scored fewer than 69 in a playoff game nor 10 or less in a quarter dur-

ing the postseason, but both those marks fell on a night when they were dominated on both ends of the floor. Miami led by 11 at the half and put this one away in the third quarter, outscoring Chicago 17-9 in the period. Now the Heat will try to wrap up the series at home on Wednesday night, taking what they hope will be the next step toward a second straight championship. It’s hard to believe the Bulls won the series opener the way the past three games have gone. Miami pounded Chicago in Game 2, coming away with its most lopsided playoff victory while handing the Bulls their worst ever postseason loss, and the Heat continued to roll from there.

SAN FRANCISCO — At around age 10, Hunter Pence acquired a Barry Bonds poster from his elementary school fair. It was then that Pence started choking up on his bat just as Bonds did in that prized picture that wound up on his wall. Pence has become one of the Giants’ most reliable hitters with his unique, funky style — and no question emulating baseball’s home run king has served him well for two decades since his days of youth baseball. “I just grab it where it feels good,” Hunter Pence Pence said. “I’ve always choked up, since about 10 or 11ish years old. I don’t remember exactly but I had a Barry Bonds poster that I bought and he was choked up, and I kind of copied him. He was one of my favorite players.” Not only does Pence have a teamleading seven home runs while batting .281 with nine doubles and a triple, he is the only one on the reigning World Series champions to start all 38 games this season and play every inning. Manager Bruce Bochy regularly checks with his right fielder to see if he might need a break. Nah, Pence just wants to play. “That’s what I’m supposed to do,” he said before a 5-1 win against Atlanta on Sunday. “I get paid to play. I love to play. It’s an honor. I’ve been fortunate not to have injuries. I’m grateful to be able to play.” The Giants are thrilled to have him for a full season this year, too. Atlanta manager Fredi Gonzalez has watched Pence burn both his Braves and former Marlins teams over the years, with Pence playing for Houston, then Philadelphia, and now the Giants.

COMMENTARY: NASCAR

JGR roars back on track after two rough weeks By Jenna Fryer

The Associated Press

HARLOTTE, N.C. — When Joe Gibbs publicly addressed the illegal part found in Matt Kenseth’s engine, the team owner was respectful of NASCAR’s inspection process but adamant about the importance of not sullying Joe Gibbs Racing’s reputation over an infraction he insisted was not intentional. When an appeals board last week reduced most of the penalties NASCAR levied against JGR, Gibbs did not celebrate winning his case. His reaction was reserved, almost subdued, and nothing close to the celebration one might have expected over an issue that was so important to him. Perhaps it’s because JGR chose to do its celebrating on the race track. JGR came roaring back from two rocky weeks

fighting NASCAR by blowing the doors off the competition at Darlington Raceway, where it swept last weekend’s races. Kenseth won the Sprint Cup race Saturday night, Kyle Busch won the Nationwide Series race Friday and nobody came close to Matt Kenseth challenging the organization. Busch routed the field in the Nationwide race and led JGR drivers Elliott Sadler and Brian Vickers across the finish line. Kenseth wound up fifth to give JGR first, second, third and fifth in the first race of the weekend. In the Cup race, it looked like it was going to be Busch again as he led a race-high 265 laps. But a flat tire in the homestretch caused Busch to fade to a sixth-place finish. Sailing past him was Kenseth for his series-lead-

ing third win of the season and teammate Denny Hamlin, who made it a 1-2 JGR finish in Hamlin’s first full race since suffering a compression fracture of a vertebra in his lower back. When asked to explain JGR’s performance at Darlington, team President J.D. Gibbs downplayed any magic formula. “I just think our whole team — we’ve just got a great team from top to bottom, drivers, crew chiefs, guys that travel, guys back at the shop,” Gibbs said. “I think that really pays off on the weekend. It pays off in Nationwide. That’s kind of our training ground for our guys to move up to Cup. Then it pays off in Cup. We have guys that work hard, long hours. They enjoy it. They enjoy winning races, too.” The weekend sweep came on the heels of a try-

Rangers rout Capitals, advance SCOREBOARD The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Led by Henrik Lundqvist’s 35 saves in a second consecutive shutout, and goals from some unlikely sources, New York Rangers 5 beat the Capitals 5-0 in Game 7 Monday night Capitals 0 to reach the Eastern Conference semifinals. New York contained Alex Ovechkin again and completed its comeback after trailing in the series 2-0 and 3-2 — the latest in Washington’s long history of playoff collapses. No. 6 seed New York faces No. 4 Boston in the second round. It is the first time New York won a Game 7 on the road in its history. Arron Asham put New York ahead in the first period, before Taylor Pyatt and Michael Del Zotto made it 3-0 early in the second on goals 2:10 apart. Ryan Callahan added a goal 13 seconds into the third period, and when Mats Zuccarello scored with about 13½ minutes remaining, thousands of red-clad fans streamed to the exits. Soon after, when Lundqvist fell forward to smother a puck, chants of “Hen-reeek! Hen-reeek!” from the no-longer-outnumbered Rangers supporters stood tall. From the moment Mike Ribeiro’s overtime goal gave Washington a Game 5 victory, Lundqvist was simply superb. The goalie stopped all 62 shots he faced in Games 6 and 7, showing exactly why he won the Vezina Trophy as the league’s top goalie last year and is a finalist this season. A Capitals offense led by two-time MVP Ovechkin managed to score 12 goals the entire series — and zero over the final 120. Indeed, Ovechkin was held without a point in Games 3-7. The left wing led the NHL with 32 goals but he heads into the offseason after the longest playoff point drought of his career. He had a goal in Game 1, an assist in Game 2. Ovechkin delivered some big hits early

in Game 7, but he was credited with only one shot by the end of the second period, which closed with some boos from the red-clad spectators in the stands. New York’s top scorer in the regular season, Rick Nash, didn’t have a goal against Washington, but the Rangers found other players to pick up the slack. While Callahan did have 16 goals this season, the other four Rangers who put pucks past Braden Holtby combined for a total of only 14. The Rangers-Capitals finale began only a little more than 24 hours after the shoving- and wrestling-filled end of Game 6. That, of course, was played at Madison Square Garden, continuing the pattern of the home team winning each of the first six games of the series.

BRUINS 5, MAPLE LEAFS 4 (OT) In Boston, Patrice Bergeron tied it with 51 seconds left in regulation then scored the game-winner 6:05 into overtime to give the Bruins the win in Game 7 as Boston turned back Toronto’s comeback with a rally of its own. Tuukka Rask stopped 24 shots for Boston, which led the best-of-seven series 3-1 before the Maple Leafs won two in a row to force a seventh game. Toronto opened a 4-1 lead in the third period of the decisive game, but Boston cut the deficit to two midway through the third period and then scored twice in the final 82 seconds to force overtime. James Reimer made 30 saves for the Maple Leafs. Cody Franson scored twice, and former Bruin Phil Kessel had a goal and an assist for Toronto.

Away: Bosh finishes with 14 points for Heat Continued from Page B-1 James had his usual complete game with eight assists and seven rebounds Monday. Chris Bosh finished with 14 points after scoring 20 and grabbing 19 rebounds in Game 3, and the Heat won again despite another quiet night from Dwyane Wade, who finished with six points. Norris Cole also struggled with seven points after back-to-back 18-point performances, but the Heat had more than enough in this one. They shot about 49 percent while the Bulls set a franchise playoff low at 25.7 percent. They were particularly bad from the outside, going 2-for-17 from 3-point range. The Bulls again were missing ailing Luol

Deng and injured Kirk Hinrich (calf), and a team that kept finding ways to win despite being shorthanded all season simply appeared to run out of steam. Power forward Carlos Boozer had 14 points and Chris Bosh 12 rebounds for his fifth double-double in the postseason but was just 3 of 14 from the field. Small forward Jimmy Butler finished with 12 and forward Joakim Noah grabbed nine rebounds, but it was a miserable night for Chicago — particularly gaurd Nate Robinson, who missed all 12 shots and did not score.

GRIzzLIES 103, THUNdER 97 (OT) In Memphis, Tenn., Tony Allen scored on a driving layup to open overtime, and the Grizzlies held off Oklahoma City to push the defending Western Conference champions to the edge of elimination. The Grizzlies shook off a first half in which they couldn’t hit shots and the Thunder seemingly couldn’t miss in building their largest lead in this series at 17 points. But the Grizzlies have yet to lose on their home court this postseason, and they won their third straight and seventh in eight games to grab a 3-1 lead in the series. Game 5 is Wednesday in Oklahoma City. The Grizzlies outscored the Thunder 9-3 in overtime. Kevin Durant scored 27 points but missed all five of his shots in overtime.

Tracking: Berhost, Carlon to play together Continued from Page B-1 anything but. Steady off the tee and mistake-free from up close, he began his round with an eagle on the par-5, 547-yard first hole. Berhost bogeyed that same hole, digging himself an early three-stroke deficit. He also bogeyed five straight holes on the back nine after recording a birdie and four pars in a five-hole stretch on the front. “It’s frustrating, but it can be fixed,” Berhost said. “Four shots can be made up.” Looking down at the rest of the field is nothing new for the Carlon. “I’ve been in this situation a few times before, leading a tournament after a round,” he said. “Not at state, though. This is a different thing. I guess I’ll deal with it the same way I usually do.” Which, he said, was to remain calm and trust his instincts. On his heels is New Mexico Military Institute’s Sebastian Villareal, one stroke back at 75. Socorro’s Sean Moore is two back while Huskies teammate Grant Storey is three behind.

CLASS A-AAA First round scores from Monday’s state championship tournament at the New Mexico Tech Golf Course in Socorro:

Boys Sean Carlon, Hope 74 Sebastian Villareal, NMMI 75 Sean Moore, Socorro 76 Grant Storey, Hope 77 Zach Berhost, St. Michael’s 78 Will Shaffer, Socorro 78 Gabe Rael, Hope 79 Issac Alderete, Sandia Prep 80 Ricky Silva, Socorro 81 Cameron Zuni, Hope 81 Brett Anaya, Socorro 81

Berhost and Socorro’s Will Shaffer are within striking distance at 78. Having been through the rigors of four state tournaments since he first qualified for the event as an eighth-grader in 2009, Berhost said the key is to not overthink things. “That’s probably the worst thing you can do,” he said. “[Monday] I’ll probably just sit in the hotel, play video games and not analyze every little thing about what I just did. Sometimes you need to just go out and play.” Hope had each of its top four players all shoot 81 or better, good enough for a fivestroke lead over Socorro. The Warriors’ top four all shot 81 or better; the difference between the teams coming the play of Carlon and Storey at the top of the leaderboard. No other team is in the running for the blue trophy. Lovington is 35 shots off Hope’s pace while fourth-place St. Michael’s 42 behind. Nate Spingler had an opening round 83 for the Horsemen. The remaining three

players on the roster — Cody Van Damme, Bradley Vaughan and James Hughes — carded 95, 97 and 99, respectively. Las Vegas Robertson’s Grant Gregory qualified for state in the individual category and shot a 91. AAA: Berhost and Carlon will be in the same foursome for the final round. They’re scheduled to tee off on the back nine at 8:40 a.m. u The race for the championship trophy on the girls side is all but over as Socorro has opened a commanding 53-stroke lead after one round. Bosque leads Lovington by two shots for second place. u Socorro’s Kristen Cline shot an opening round 75 to claim a one-stroke lead over Sandia Prep’s Klara Castillo and Socorro teammate Shania Berger. AAAA: Santa Fe High’s Andrea Grijalva fired an 84 in Monday’s opening round in Las Cruces, good enough for a tie for fifth place. She trails the overall leader by nine strokes, but the Demonettes are in last in the team competition.

Soriano, Cubs rout Colorado Chicago earns third consecutive victory The Associated Press

CHICAGO — Travis Wood pitched seven scoreless innings, and the Cubs came within two outs of their Cubs 9 first shutout since last Rockies 1 August in a 9-1 win over Colorado on Monday night. Alfonso Soriano homered for Chicago, which has won three straight for the second time this season. The Cubs’ 14 hits were one short of a season high. Josh Rutledge hit a home run off Carlos Marmol with one out in the ninth, ruining the Cubs’ bid for their first shutout win since they beat Colorado on Aug. 26. “We need to be more consistent. We’ve struggled, there’s no question, lately offensively,” said Walt Weiss, Rockies manager. “It looked like [Sunday] we busted out, but we need to be a little more consistent and put together some offense on a daily basis.” The Cubs have gone 74 games between shutouts, their longest streak since going 75 in a row from May 15 until Aug. 6, 1999, according to STATS. Wood (4-2) allowed two hits while striking out two for his MLB-leading eighth quality start. He’s the first Cubs pitcher since Hippo Vaughn in 1919 to start with eight quality starts. cARDINALS 6, METS 3 In St. Louis, Lance Lynn overcame early control woes, and the Cardinals used a three-run seventh to beat New York. Lynn (6-1) allowed three runs on three hits and four walks the first two innings. He only gave up one hit and one walk in his last five innings. He is 4-0 at home this season. Rick Ankiel, signed by the Mets earlier in the day after clearing waivers and playing against the team that revived his career as a position player, just missed a diving catch on Ty Wigginton’s pinch-hit bloop double to shallow center off Scott Rice (1-3) to open the seventh. Matt Carpenter followed Wigginton’s hit with a sharp grounder off Rice’s leg and the ball rolled into foul territory down the first-base line. Wigginton never stopped running and his head-first slide barely beat the tag to snap a 3-3 tie. BREWERS 5, PIRATES 1 In Pittsburgh, Marco Estrada allowed three hits over seven innings, and Milwaukee beat the sloppy Pirates to snap a four-game losing streak. Norichika Aoki went 3-for-5 with three RBIs and two stolen bases for the Brewers. Jean Segura added three hits and three stolen bases as Milwaukee ran wild against Pittsburgh backup catcher Mike McKenry. The Brewers stole six bases in all and took advantage of three Pittsburgh errors to win for just the second time this month. Estrada (3-2) bounced back from a rough start against St. Louis by striking out five and issuing just one walk to remain unbeaten against the Pirates. Burnett (3-4) allowed four runs in seven innings and pushed his National Leagueleading strikeout total to 72, but Pittsburgh couldn’t extend its winning streak to a season-high four games. BRAvES 10, DIAMONDBAckS 1 In Phoenix, Justin Upton snapped a 14-game homerless drought and had four hits to help Atlanta rout the Diamondbacks in his return to Arizona. Upton, the first overall pick by Arizona in the 2005 amateur draft, was playing his first game at Chase Field since the offseason trade that sent him and third baseman Chris Johnson to Atlanta in a seven-player deal. Upton followed his brother B.J., who was hit on the left shoulder by Wade Miley (3-2) to lead off the sixth, and powered a fastball onto the porch above the center field fence for his 13th home run and first since April 27 at Detroit. Johnson hit a two-run homer to cap Atlanta’s three-run fifth and Brian McCann also homered for the Braves, who ended a three-game losing streak. Braves starter Mike Minor (5-2) allowed one run on eight hits over 6⅔ innings.

AMERICAN LEAGUE

New York splits doubleheader with Cleveland The Associated Press

CLEVELAND — Vidal Nuno pitched five innings of three-hit ball to win his first MLB start, Vernon Wells and Lyle Overbay had two RBIs apiece, and New York beat the Indians 7-0 Monday for a doubleheader split. Justin Masterson pitched a fourhitter for his third career shutout as the Indians won the opener 1-0 and stopped the Yankees’ five-game winning streak. Pitching in just his second game for the Yankees, Nuno (1-1) walked three and struck out three. The former Cleveland draft pick became the only left-hander other than CC Sabathia or Andy Pettitte to start for New York since 2008. “He did an unbelievable job, considering he hasn’t pitched in a while,” said Yankees manager Joe Girardi, of Nuno, who hadn’t pitched since making his MLB debut April 29. “He’s very poised out there. Nothing seems to bother him. He was ahead of hitters all day.” Yankees rookie Adam Warren finished the five-hitter for his first big league save. New York chased hurler Trevor

Bauer (1-2) during a six-run seventh and handed the Indians just their third loss in 16 games. In the opener, Masterson (6-2) gave up four singles — only one reached the outfield — for his third career shutout and second this season. The righthander also blanked the Chicago White Sox on April 12. Jason Kipnis homered in the first inning off David Phelps (1-2) for the Indians, outscored 25-7 by the Yankees in two losses last month. Consecutive postponements back then forced the teams back to Progressive Field for a one-admission twinbill. TIGERS 7, ASTROS 2 In Detroit, Andy Dirks hit his first career grand slam, part of a six-run fourth inning for the Tigers against Houston. Victor Martinez also homered for the Tigers, who swept four straight in Houston earlier this month and opened this three-game series at Comerica Park with another convincing victory. Anibal Sanchez (4-3) allowed two runs and six hits in seven innings for the Tigers. He struck out eight with one walk. Bud Norris (4-4) allowed seven runs

and nine hits in five innings before leaving with lower back spasms. Houston has lost five straight and 15 of 18 — and the Astros also lost standout second baseman Jose Altuve in the second with a jaw injury after he collided with right fielder Jimmy Paredes on a popup. Dirks finished a triple shy of the cycle — a fine performance in the leadoff spot after Austin Jackson went on the disabled list earlier in the day with a pulled left hamstring.

Dunn and Hicks entered the game tied for the lowest batting average in the majors (.137) among qualifiers. When the night was over, Hicks’ average was .152 and Dunn’s .133. Twins starter Pedro Hernandez (2-0) allowed three runs and six hits in 5⅓ innings. Hector Santiago (1-2) yielded six runs — three earned — and eight hits in 5⅔ innings. He had only allowed one earned run in his previous two starts.

TWINS 10, WHITE SOX 3 In Minneapolis, rookie Aaron Hicks hit two home runs and made a leaping catch in center field to take a tying home run away from Chicago slugger Adam Dunn in Minnesota’s victory. Justin Morneau extended his hitting streak to nine games with three hits and four RBIs, including a three-run double that capped the scoring in the eighth inning. Trevor Plouffe had a two-run double in the third. Hicks, who missed the previous two games with a sore right elbow, led off the fourth with a solo homer to center that gave the Twins a 5-2 lead. He robbed Dunn of a two-run shot in the sixth and connected again in the bottom half.

ATHLETIcS 5, RANGERS 1 In Oakland, Calif., Yoenis Cespedes and Brandon Moss hit consecutive home runs in the third inning, A.J. Griffin matched his season high with eight strikeouts, and the A’s beat Texas. It was Texas’ first trip to Oakland since being swept in the final three games of the 2012 regular season and coughing up the AL West title to the surprising A’s. Griffin (4-3) didn’t walk a batter for the first time this season, earning his second victory in six outings since the right-hander won back-to-back appearances to start the year. Mitch Moreland homered to give the Rangers the lead in the second, then Eric Sogard and John Jaso hit RBI singles for the A’s in the bottom half.

“He comes up with the darndest hits. He just beats you every time, him and [David] Eckstein,” Gonzalez said. “He’s not going to strike out, and you know he’s going to put the ball in play and something’s going to happen. Everybody wants to see these beautiful swings and these beautiful, fluid motions, but that’s not him, other than he beats you every time.” Bruce Bochy Not that Pence is keeping track of his numbers against Gonzalez — whose compliment he said he greatly appreciated — or anybody else. It is just mid-May, after all. “I assess today. That’s all that matters,” Pence said. “Our goal is to get into the playoffs. It’s a long way away and we have to stick to the process. Every day’s a new day. I just try to go out there and compete.” Pence is hitting .327 with five doubles, three homers and eight RBIs over his last 12 games going into the opener of a two-game series at Toronto starting Tuesday. After coming to the Giants in a trade from the Phillies at last summer’s deadline, and making a big impact down the stretch and in the postseason, everybody in the Bay Area has been eager to see Pence for an entire year. He is often quirky and awkward on the field, yet always thoughtful and polite off it. Pence quietly sits at his locker alone before games along a wall in the clubhouse, this past week reading Sadaharu Oh: A Zen Way of Baseball, on the Japanese Hall of Famer. “There’s some good stuff,” Pence said. He rides a motorized scooter to work, something he knows fascinates fans but he just considers his mode of transportation to and from work. Pence would rather stick to baseball talk, though he doesn’t do much talking. “He’s really swinging well. He hasn’t missed a game, he hasn’t missed an inning,” Bochy said. “You just have to love the way he plays the game.” Pence had lunch with Bonds a couple of years back, and figures why not keep copying the former Giants slugger in the way he holds the bat. They have been in touch from time to time. “I do appreciate the story. I’ve said this, so many times earlier when Bonds was playing, I was surprised more hitters didn’t choke up like Barry or try to emulate Barry with all the success that he had and the power that he had,” Bochy said. “You really didn’t see it, and it surprised me. You can choke up and be a good hitter.” In terms of players choking up, Bochy believes it works. “Yeah, sure it does,” he said. “You don’t see many hitters choke up. That was a big thing in Little League and high school, ‘choke up, choke up.’ I took a video of my son [Giants minor league pitcher, Brett] — I should have sent it in for one of the funniest videos — he kept missing the ball, so I said, ‘Brett, choke up,’ and he went [cough, cough]. I went, ‘Ah, OK.’ He was only about 5, and that’s all he thought about for choke up.” Pence has provided an immediate glimpse of just how steady he can be after first showing it during his short time with San Francisco last season. Pence received a $13.8 million, one-year contract in January, and he is backing it up with a fast start. After three impressive wins against the Braves over the weekend, the Giants are playing some of their best baseball — and Bochy believes the hitting is becoming contagious.

ing two weeks for the Gibbs organization. One of the connecting rods in Kenseth’s race-winning engine from Kansas did not meet the minimum weight requirements and NASCAR punished the organization with one of the toughest penalties in recent history. Joe Gibbs didn’t dispute the part was illegal, and manufacturer Toyota accepted full blame. What was important to Gibbs was proving that there was no intent to deceive on the part of JGR or Toyota, and that Denny the part did Hamlin not provide any advantage. So the team went through the appeals process for the first time in its history, and won a rare victory at the first level in getting most of the penalties reduced. Kenseth still had to go to Darlington without crew chief Jason Ratcliff, who had his suspension reduced from six races to one. It made no difference, though, as Kenseth was steady all weekend behind fill-in crew chief Wally Brown and found himself in position to pounce as Busch began to fade for the first Southern 500 win of Kenseth’s career. In some regards, it’s the addition of Kenseth that has pushed JGR to what seems to be a higher level this year. He rides out the highs and lows with an even keel, and brings a steadiness the organization hasn’t had since Bobby Labonte departed in 2005. JGR still had a veteran after Labonte left in Tony Stewart, but the temperamental driver was never the role model Hamlin needed. Busch only spent one season with Stewart at JGR, and when Stewart left in 2009, Hamlin became the most senior driver in the shop. “I think Denny and Kyle really like having him, hearing what he has to say,” J.D. Gibbs said. “On the race track, he just has a gift. So I think it’s really been a blessing for Joe Gibbs Racing to have him join our team. We look forward to a great future.” Behind the scenes, JGR has also worked extremely hard to overcome shortcomings. The move this year to the new Gen-6 car was a clean slate for everyone, and JGR seized the opportunity to get out front in development. Employees at the shop studied the new specifications and built new cars around the new weight rules, while the crews worked hard to understand the new rear camber rules and how it affected the rear tires. It’s been clear all season that JGR did its homework, winning five of 11 Cup races. It’s too early to tell if this year will be the season JGR puts together a full season, but the performance is high right now.

Robson shocks Venus

19-year-old meets Serena after straight-sets victory By Andrew Dampf

The Associated Press

OME — Beating one of the Williams sisters is an accomplishment any young tennis player should celebrate. Winning consecutive matches against both of them would likely be a career highlight. Teenager Laura Robson faces that task after beating Venus Williams 6-3, 6-2 on Monday at the Italian Open to set up a second-round match against younger sister Serena — the world’s top-ranked player. “I just like it on big courts against these huge players because I just go out there with nothing to lose,” said the 19-year-old. “I can remember seeing [Venus] play at Wimbledon when I was about 10 and I was kind of blown away with the speed that she hit the ball. “Today when she hit it in the center of the racket, it was basically point over, so I just had to take my chances.” The 39th-ranked Robson won the Wimbledon junior title at age 14, and at last week’s Madrid Open she upset fourth-seeded Agnieszka Radwanska before losing in the third round to former No. 1 Ana Ivanovic in a third-set tiebreaker. Both Robson and Williams struggled with the wind at the Foro Italico, with the young Brit hitting eight double-

faults while the American veteran had six. Williams’ errors, however, came at more inopportune times, including two double-faults in the final game. “It’s always hard to play high quality tennis in that wind,” Robson said. “I wish it could have been a higher standard but I’m happy to have won.” Serena, who won the Madrid title Sunday, watched the match from the stands. “[Robson] has a great game,” the younger Williams said. “She’s really young, still. She’s just so free and she looks great on the court and she’s so smooth and she’s a lefty, so that just adds a notch to her whole level. “I’ve never played her before. I’ve always wanted to. So I have a tough second-round match.” Serena’s only title at this clay-court tournament came in 2002 but if she continues playing the way she did in Madrid — and in her previous two tournaments, which she also won — she’ll be difficult to beat. “She is playing probably her best tennis,” Robson said. “So it’s going to be insanely tough but I’m just going to go out there and do my best.” This tournament is the last major warm-up for the French Open, the year’s second Grand Slam, which starts May 26. The top 32 players in the world are seeded for Grand Slams. “I’ve said since the start of the year that I wanted to be seeded for Wimbledon and it would be great if I were to

be seeded for Roland Garros, as well,” Robson said. The top eight seeds in Rome, including Williams, have first-round byes. In other matches, ninth-seeded Samantha Stosur cruised past Su-Wei Hsieh 6-2, 6-3; two-time champion Jelena Jankovic overpowered Tsvetana Pironkova 6-3, 6-0; Sabine Lisicki eliminated qualifier Mallory Burdette 6-1, 6-2; and wild-card entry Nastassja Burnett defeated Alize Cornet 6-2, 6-2. In a night match that was suspended briefly because of a lighting outage, No. 59 Kiki Bertens beat 2010 French Open champion Francesca Schiavone 7-6 (5), 6-1. In men’s action, 11th-seeded Marin Cilic beat Andrey Golubev 6-4, 6-2, and wild card Potito Starace rallied past Radek Stepanek 4-6, 6-4, 6-3 to set up a match against second-seeded Roger Federer. In a late match, 16th-seeded Kei Nishikori of Japan dispatched Italian wild card Paolo Lorenzi 6-2, 6-4. Nishikori, who upset Federer in Madrid last week, called for a trainer while leading 4-3 in the second set to tend to his right thigh but did not appear slowed while closing the match out. Meanwhile, 10th-seeded Janko Tipsarevic withdrew with bronchitis and Lukas Rosol took his place in the draw. Also, sixth-seeded Angelique Kerber withdrew with an abdominal injury and was replaced by Lourdes Dominguez Lino.

Premier League’s Manchester City fires manager Roberto Mancini LONDON — Manchester City fired manager Roberto Mancini on Monday, exactly a year after he delivered the club’s first English league title in 44 years. The Italian has paid the price for Man City’s failure to build on its position of strength. The club set to end the season without a trophy after losing the FA Cup final and exiting the group stage of the Champions League for the second straight season. “Despite everyone’s best efforts, the club has failed to achieve any of its stated targets this year, with the exception of qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions

League,” City said in a statement. “This, combined with an identified need to develop a holistic approach to all aspects of football at the club, has meant that the decision has been taken to find a new manager for the 2013-14 season and beyond.” City said its end-of-season review was brought forward “out of respect for Roberto” after it was reported that Malaga coach Manuel Pellegrini has been lined up to replace him. Mancini has publically criticized City for failing to deny those reports. The Associated Press

Poise: Woods is 52-4 with lead going into final round Continued from Page B-1 and posed over the shot until he saw the splash. “As the ball was in the air I was thinking, ‘Please be right,’ because it was straight at it,” Garcia said. “It was probably 3 feet left of the hole. When it splashed, you think, ‘Well, hopefully I hit a good shot after this and make 4 and still have a chance on the next.’ It’s pretty much as simple as that.” Only it wasn’t that simple. His next shot bounced off the mound framing a bunker and caromed back into the water. He wound up with a quadruplebogey 7. Adding to his misery, Garcia put his tee shot into the water on the 18th for a double bogey. To say such mistakes never happen to Woods would be to ignore the final hole at Dubai in 2001, when he went for the green on the 18th hole

and found water for a double bogey to lose by two shots. He has lost tournaments down the stretch. More often than not, the other guy beats him. Back to Nicklaus, Jack Nicklaus talking about Augusta National, though it can apply to other golf courses and situations. “If you’ve got a 50-50 chance of doing it, I wouldn’t be doing it,” Nicklaus said about high-risk shots. “If you’ve got a 90-10 chance, think real hard about it, and try to make sure you eliminate the 10.” (Nicklaus said he has never talked to Phil Mickelson about this.) Woods made a mistake Sunday when he hit a pop-hook into the water on the 14th, leading to double bogey

that gave hope to about a half-dozen players, at least for a short time. That was because of a bad swing, which is bound to happen over 18 holes of a final round. It’s his head that kept him in the game. “I stayed really patient,” Woods said. “I kept telling myself, ‘That was your only bad swing you made all day. You can still win this tournament.’ ” He figured if he could play the last four holes in 1-under, he would at least get into a playoff. He played the last four in 1 under and won The Players Championship. Of the four players tied for the lead, two went into the water on the 17th — Garcia and Jeff Maggert — while David Lingmerth made a gallant try. He missed an 8-foot birdie chance on the 17th and had to make a 70-foot putt down two ridges on the 18th to tie. He three-putted for bogey. Woods now is 52-4 when he has at

least a share of the lead going into the final round on the PGA Tour, which does not count his playoff win over Tom Lehman in La Costa. They were tied for the lead when rain washed out the last round. Woods won in a playoff when Lehman hit into the water, and Woods hit his tee shot to a foot. His four wins this year speak to why Woods is such a good closer. He has yet to break 70 in the final round in those four wins. He didn’t need to. Of the 52 times that Woods won with at least a share of the lead after 54 holes, his average score in the final round is 70.5. The 22 times he has won when trailing after 54 holes, his average score in the final round is 66.6. It’s all about doing whatever it takes to win. And when you don’t, make sure it’s because someone else beats you.

Dating is problem in open marriage

Dear Annie: My husband and I have been happily married for 15 years and recently decided to try an open-marriage lifestyle. We are doing this with full honesty and respect for each other. The main problem is that the dating success is not equal. I found it easier to get a date. Whereas, my husband is having a tremendous degree of difficulty. He has online dating profiles, but no luck. I am seeing someone who is a wonderful person, but I want my husband to experience new things along with me. Open marriage is still considered taboo, and it is extremely important to my husband and me that we are honest about our marital status with any prospective date. Even though he is happy for me, I feel compelled to help him. But I’m not sure how to do it without overstepping unspoken boundaries. — Open but Lost Dear Open: Are you sure your husband wants this as much as you do? He may have agreed to the arrangement only to please you. We think you need to have this discussion again and let your commitment to honesty lead the way. Ask your husband whether he is truly happy with the idea of an open marriage and, if so, what you can do to make things easier for him. Marriage, “open” or otherwise, requires the ability to communicate. Dear Annie: Would you please address the distinction between “dinner” and “supper”? I’ve heard many people refer to the evening meal as dinner, but the definition of an evening meal is supper. I even heard a prominent newscaster refer to the president as sitting down with a guest at the White House for “dinner” tonight, but if they are sitting down at night, it is clearly supper. — Stickler in the South Dear Stickler: In most parts of the U.S. and Canada, these words are used interchangeably. However, there are regional distinctions, which

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Pressure builds. It seems as if an authority figure has high expectations for what you can do. You might be focused on a personal issue that is taking up a lot of your time. Tonight: Try to stay centered. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You have the unique ability to stay focused on what you need to do. Though you are an emotional sign, you know when to detach and see the big picture. Tonight: Go for something unusual. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH You could be trying to do something very differently. Realize that you need to work closely with one person in order to succeed. Tonight: Chat over dinner. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Others have the intention of running the show. Aren’t you a little tired of this scenario? Tonight: Let your creative genie out of the bottle. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Know what you want. You will want to put an extra effort into maintaining your desired pace. Tonight: Happy when you finally get home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You are so creative that others can trigger your imagination with a simple comment about the weather or something similar. Tonight: Fun and games. Jacqueline Bigar

The Cryptoquip is a substitution cipher in which one letter stands for another. If you think that X equals O, it will equal O throughout the puzzle. Single letters, short words and words using an apostrophe give you clues to locating vowels. Solution is by trial and error. © 2013 by King Features Syndicate, Inc.

WHITE WINS A PIECE Hint: Control the e7 square. Solution: 1. Rxd6! does it. I … Nxd6, 2. Ne7ch wins a queen [adapted, Ribli-Lauber ’13].

Today in history Today is Tuesday, May 14, the 134th day of 2013. There are 231 days left in the year. Today’s highlight in history: On May 14, 1973, the United States launched Skylab 1, its first manned space station. (Skylab 1 remained in orbit for six years before burning up during re-entry in 1979.)

Hocus Focus

might explain why this bothers you so much. According to most definitions, “dinner” refers to the main meal of the day. Back in the Middle Ages, people often ate the main meal at lunchtime. Now we tend to eat it much later, but it is still called “dinner” regardless of the time. “Supper” refers to a lighter meal taken later in the evening and is often used interchangeably with “tea.” The word “dinner” also is used when referring to a formal meal or banquet (hence the president’s dinners), and “supper” is always a less formal affair. We hope that answers your question. Thanks for the change of pace. Dear Annie: In response to “Wife of the Plumber,” I have only one thing to say: Get out while the gettin’ is good! Her husband is a total narcissist, and nothing is going to change him. Narcissists are superb at conning people, especially those who love them. We are the ones they treat the worst, because we have that unrealistic hope that given time things will improve. After almost half a century, I can attest to the fact that no matter how many chances you give, no matter how many promises they make and no matter how much you love them or how hard you work, it will never change. They see nothing wrong with themselves. It is always the other person’s fault. They will not seek help. I urge her not to throw her life away on someone who will never be there for her. I hoped too much and loved too strongly, and although still legally married, I have finally reached the point of emotionally withdrawing from my self-made prison. If leaving is not feasible, she needs to protect herself and her children from the extreme damage that is done by living with this type of person. And get counseling. — Been There, Done That and Escaped
