Capital High suspends 20 seniors for online cheating Students caught after using teacher’s code to alter scores By Robert Nott The New Mexican

About 20 Capital High seniors got access to a teacher’s computer password and used it to change their test and course grades through an online learning program.

The program is used by students who fall behind in course work to earn credits needed for graduation. Capital High Principal Channell WilsonSegura said a Santa Fe High teacher who had access to the program tipped off Capital’s administrators about the online cheating on March 14. School officials investigated the following Monday and Tuesday, Wilson-Segura said, denying all teachers access to the online program until officials

Search list expands to 108 in Washington mudslide Rescuers continue search for missing as death toll hits 14 By Kirk Johnson

The New York Times

ARLINGTON, Wash. — Estimates about the number of people who may have been in the vicinity when a huge mudslide smashed through the tiny community of Oso continued to grow Monday, as Snohomish County officials said they had compiled 108 names of people unaccounted for since the disaster, which killed at least 14 people and injured at least eight more Saturday morning. And amid concerns about new mudslides,

search and rescue organizers pulled back some of the roughly 100 responders at the site from areas near the slope where the cascade of moisture-laden soils sloughed down at about 10:45 a.m. Saturday. Emergency management officials cautioned Monday that the new number of people unaccounted for could be revised downward, as some reports of the missing are vague at best, with little more than a first name to go on. Officials stressed that the search list could contain duplicate names, The Associated Press reported. The officials also said that search and rescue continues where possible on the square-

Santa Fe City Clerk Yolanda Vigil quietly received a 6 percent raise under a contract that the mayor and City Council discussed in a closed-door meeting two weeks ago and then approved in a public vote with no mention of a pay increase. Vigil is being paid $94,640 annually under the agreement, nearly $5,500 more than under her previous contract. This comes on top of the $6,091 monthly pension that Vigil receives from the New Mexico Public Employees Retirement Association. She officially retired in December 2005 and then went back to work for the city five months later doing the same job. The practice of allowing government employees to start receiving retirement benefits and then return to work months later and also receive a salary — commonly referred to by critics as “double dipping” — was ended by the Legislature and Gov. Bill Richardson in 2010. Mayor Javier Gonzales said Monday there are several reasons Vigil deserves the 6 percent pay increase, which is higher than raises recently approved for other city employees before he took office. One, he said, is her institutional knowledge of City Hall, which “is probably as

Santa Fe group to rally against Albuquerque police shooting By Uriel J. Garcia

The New Mexican

Some Santa Fe residents plan to join Albuquerque demonstrators Tuesday to protest against Albuquerque police officers who fatally shot a mentally ill homeless man after a March 16 confrontation. After video of the incident from an officer’s helmet camera was released over the weekend, Albuquerque groups organized an evening protest that will start in downtown Albuquerque and end with a march to Albuquerque Police Department headquarters. A group of Santa Feans plans to meet at Natural Grocers, 3328 Cerrillos Road, at 4 p.m. and then drive down to join Albuquerque protesters who say police “murdered” James Boyd, 38, at an illegal campsite in the Sandia foothills more than a week ago. The Santa Fe organizers are asking participants to put signs and black streamers on their cars so they can drive

What he does is study the origin of words. And as a result, Kumar will represent the state of New Mexico in the Scripps National Spelling Bee in late May. If he wins there, he said, “I would be famous in the nation. For like a few days. I would be a word master.” Kumar first jumped and then performed a twirl after hearing he had been named winner of the New Mexico Spelling Bee on Saturday at Sandia Preparatory School in Albuquerque. His winning word: balneation. Third-place winner Joaquin Bas, a Carlos Gilbert Elementary School fourth-grader, said he was sad and a little angry he missed second place after misspelling silentiary in one of the last rounds of the contest. But now, he said, he’s ready to enter spelling bees again. “I have four more years to keep on doing it and get better,” he said. (The second-place winner was Farmington student Nate Benson.) More than 40 participants in grades 4-8 took part in Saturday’s state match.

Line cook Javier Rodriguez uses his bare hands to make chicken tacos at the Hock Farm restaurant in Sacramento, Calif., earlier this month. Under a bill signed last year by Gov. Jerry Brown, chefs and bartenders in California must keep bare hands off food going straight to the plate or the drink glass, and must use gloves or utensils such as tongs.

Bare-handed battle Calif. chefs fight ban on direct contact with food By Fenit Nirappil

The Associated Press

SACRAMENTO, Calif. s the happy hour crowd poured in on a recent weeknight, the kitchen and bar staff at Hock Farm restaurant scrambled to meet the incoming orders. One used her hands to toss locally grown Romaine hearts with anchovy dressing in a metal bowl, while another, facing diners from behind a marble countertop, used his fingers to sprinkle cojita cheese and red onion into chicken tacos. A gloveless bartender wedged an orange slice on the edge of a white wine spritzer. All of them were breaking a state law that took effect in January, but won’t be enforced until July. California is a straggler in banning barehand contact with ready-to-eat food. A state-by-state review of food codes shows 41 other states have a version of the legislation signed last year by Gov. Jerry Brown. In all these states, chefs and bartenders must keep bare hands off food going straight to the plate or the drink glass, from the rice in a sushi roll to the mint in a mojito. Instead, they must use utensils or gloves. Hock Farm owner Randy Paragary says bringing this rule to California disrupts well-established hand-washing routines, generates unnecessary waste and restricts his employees’ in their craft. Hearing restaurant owners echo his concerns about the law’s inflexibility, state legislators are considering a reversal before inspectors begin slapping fines on eateries this summer. Since 1993, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has recommended a handsoff approach in restaurants and bars as a staple of basic hygiene. Even with good hand-washing, it takes only a few norovirus particles — the most common cause of foodborne illness — to infect diners, the FDA says. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that workers touching food provided the most common transmission pathway for food-originated norovirus outbreaks between 2001 and 2008, the most recent comprehensive review of data available.

“It’s an additional barrier to help protect the food,” said Liza Frias, environmental health manager for the city of Pasadena and chairwoman of California’s Retail Food Safety Coalition, which represents regulators and business groups. “You have everyday consumers who are looking for glove use.” The other barriers, experts say, are keeping sick workers out of the kitchen and ensuring strong hand-washing. Major chain restaurants are used to gloves and generally shrug at this kind of regulation. The California Restaurant Association had opposed the bill until last year, when it recognized the widespread practice wasn’t going away. To higher-end restaurants such as Hock Farm, the mandate came as an irritating surprise. Sacramento’s dining scene emphasizes using fresh, locally grown food as part of the farm-to-fork movement. And Paragary, the Hock Farm owner, says gloves would undermine the transparent kitchento-plate step his customers observe. “You’ll feel like there’s a doctor back there preparing your food,” he said. Another Sacramento restaurateur, Randall Selland, calls the new law an unnecessary infringement on highly regarded establishments, saying it’s better suited for fast food and production-line restaurants. “If people get sick at my restaurant, they are going to stop coming,” Selland said. “You have got to give restaurants some trust.” Many of the states with the bare-hand ban, and even the FDA model code, allow for exceptions. That discretion lies with local health agencies in California, and the potential for inconsistencies and added work for regulators and businesses alike has been controversial. Food codes in Louisiana, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Oregon and Wyoming encourage minimal contact but do not ban bare-hand contact outright. Lawmakers in South Carolina are considering a ban this year, while Tennessee plans to implement one by 2015. Ravin Patel, executive chef at Ella near the Capitol, said he didn’t notice much difference in kitchen procedures after moving in 2009 to California from New York, which has prohibited bare-hand contact since 1992. But that doesn’t mean the kitchen staffs in New York restaurants are always wearing gloves.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is preparing to unveil a legislative proposal for a far-reaching overhaul of the National Security Agency’s once-secret bulk phone records program in a way that — if approved by Congress — would end the aspect that has most alarmed privacy advocates since its existence was leaked last year, according to senior administration officials. Under the proposal, they said, the NSA would end its systematic collection of data about Americans’ calling habits. The bulk records would stay in the hands of phone companies, which would not be required to retain the data for any longer than they normally would. And the NSA could obtain specific records only with permission from a judge, using a new kind of court order. In a speech in January, President Barack Obama said he wanted to get the NSA out of the business of collecting call records in bulk while preserving the program’s abilities. He acknowledged, however, that there was no easy way to do so and had instructed Justice Department and intelligence officials to come up with a plan by Friday when the current court order authorizing the program expires.

In brief

Train driver may have dozed off

CHICAGO — An operator of a Chicago public-transit train that jumped the tracks and scaled an escalator at one of the nation’s busiest airports Monday may have dozed off, a union official said. The woman said she had worked extensive overtime recently and was “extremely tired” at the time of the accident, Amalgamated Transit Union Local 308 President Robert Kelly said. The derailment happened just before 3 a.m. at the end of the Chicago Transit Authority’s Blue Line at O’Hare International Airport. More than 30 people were hurt, but none had life-threatening injuries.

U.S. told 3,000 firms they were hacked in 2013 WASHINGTON — Federal agents notified more than 3,000 U.S. companies last year that their computer systems had been hacked, White House officials have told industry executives, marking the first time the government has revealed how often it tipped off the private sector to cyberintrusions. The alerts went to firms large and small, from local banks to major defense contractors to national retailers such as Target, which suffered a significant breach last fall, according to government and industry officials. “Three thousand companies is astounding,” said James Lewis, a senior fellow and cyberpolicy expert at the Center for Strategic and International Studies. “The problem is as big or bigger than we thought.” The number reflects only a fraction of the true scale of cyberintrusions into the private sector by criminal groups and foreign governments and their proxies. The estimated cost to U.S. companies and consumers is up to $100 billion annually, analysts say. The scale of notifications is an effort to ramp up the sharing of threat information by the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security and other agencies with U.S. companies, officials say. The alerts follow a February 2013 executive order by President Barack Obama to “increase in volume, timeliness, and quality” the cyberthreat information shared with the private sector so people can better defend themselves.

As part of the proposal, the administration has decided to ask the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court to renew the program as it currently exists for at least one more 90-day cycle, senior administration officials said. But under the plan the administration has developed and now advocates, the officials said, it would later undergo major changes. The NSA now retains the phone data for five years. The agency uses the once-secret call records program — sometimes known as the 215 program, after Section 215 of the Patriot Act — to analyze links between callers in an effort to identify hidden terrorist associates, if they exist. It was part of the secret surveillance program that President George W. Bush unilaterally put in place after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, outside of any legal framework or court oversight. Jameel Jaffer of the American Civil Liberties Union said: “We have many questions about the details, but we agree with the administration that the NSA’s bulk collection of call records should end.” The existence of the NSA program was disclosed and then declassified last year following leaks by Edward Snowden, the former NSA contractor. The disclosure set off a controversy that scrambled the usual partisan lines in Congress.

Woes complicate flood insurance NEW YORK — There’s no easy fix for the National Flood Insurance Program, now drowning in a $24 billion sea of red ink. But experts and advocates say Congress does have options that could make the program financially stable, affordable and effective at motivating change in communities. At least 1.1 million policyholders are likely to see insurance premiums rise substantially in the next few years as the government whittles down rate subsidies for people in the riskiest flood zones. If premiums stay as low as they are now it could cost taxpayers billions when there’s a flood, thanks to few incentives to flood-proof their properties. The Associated Press

The announcements raised the question of why British, American or Malaysian authorities could not have reached the same conclusion more quickly from the Inmarsat data — a succession of hourly electronic “handshakes” between the plane and a satellite — which the company began analyzing within a day or two of the plane’s disappearance. Vanita Supaya, a former Malaysia Airlines flight attendant who knew some of the crew on board, said the Malaysians should have solicited help from experts in the West much earlier. “It shouldn’t have taken them 17 days to tell us what happened to the aircraft,” she told BBC World News. “This is really very, very sad for the families.” On March 18, Australia

The area being searched by the Australians is around 1,500 miles from land, precluding any safe landing for the plane. The statements from Najib and the airline came after observers on a Chinese search plane on Monday spotted some “suspicious objects” in the southern Indian Ocean — two large floating objects and many smaller white ones. With the search now in its third week, crew members on an Australian plane separately were able to see two objects, one gray or green and circular and one an orange rectangle, in another section of the 42,500-square-mile stretch

Group of 8 agrees to exclude Russia By Michael D. Shear, Alison Smale and David M. Herszenhorn The New York Times

THE HAGUE, Netherlands — President Barack Obama and the leaders of the biggest Western economies agreed Monday to exclude President Vladimir Putin from the Group of 8, suspending his government’s 15-year participation in the diplomatic forum and further isolating his country. In a joint statement after a two-hour, closed-door meeting of the four largest economies in Europe, along with Japan and Canada, the leaders of the seven nations announced that a summit meeting planned for Sochi, Russia, in June will now be held in Brussels — without Russia’s participation. “This group came together because of shared beliefs and shared responsibilities. Russia’s actions in recent weeks are not consistent with them,” the statement said. “Under these circumstances, we will not participate in the planned Sochi Summit. We will suspend our participation in the G-8 until Russia changes course.” The move by the group — its first face-to-face gathering since Russia’s lightning-quick annexation of the Crimea a month ago — was intended as another signal of the West’s condemnation of Russia’s actions. Leaders said it represented only part of a series of punishments that might still escalate if Russia refuses to turn back its aggressions, the statement said. In particular, the countries agreed to consider broader sanctions against large sectors of the Russian economy. Obama had signaled last week that the United States was prepared to take such a move, and officials said his decision to call a meeting of the G-8 countries was in part intended to persuade them to do the same. “We remain ready to intensify actions including coordinated sectoral sanctions that will have an increasingly significant impact on the Russian economy, if Russia continues to escalate this situation,” the leaders’ statement said. Such sanctions could have an outsized impact on European economies that have close trade and investment ties to Russia. Before the meeting, other leaders also indicated that Russia’s actions had now left the country on the outside of the group. British Prime Minister David Cameron told reporters that “we should be clear there’s not going to be a G-8 summit this year in Russia. That’s absolutely clear.” Chancellor Angela Merkel gave a similar clue that the group might shed Russia in a speech to the German parliament last week, saying that “so long as the political context” is absent, “then the G-8 no longer exists, either as a summit or as a format.” The G-8 is a forum longprized by the Germans. But Merkel has sounded increasingly firm — and frustrated — with Putin. Last week, she stressed that “we are ready at any time to introduce phase-3 measures if there is a worsening of the situ-

Egypt imposes death sentence for 529 Alleged supporters of Morsi convicted of killing a single officer

The Washington Post

CAIRO — An Egyptian court sentenced 529 people to death in the largest capital punishment case on record in Egypt, judicial authorities said Monday. The alleged supporters of ousted Islamist president Mohammed Morsi were convicted on charges of killing a single police officer, the attempted murder of two other officers, and attacking a police station in the Nile Valley city of Minya in August. Sixteen people were acquitted. The mass sentencing underscored the severity of an ongoing campaign by Egypt’s military-backed leaders to silence opposition, eight months after a military coup ousted Morsi, the country’s first democratically elected leader. It was unclear what evidence prosecutors presented to support Monday’s ruling, which came after only two court sessions. A defense attorney in the case said that the defense was never given access to the evidence and that none of the defendants — or their attorneys — were allowed in court for the verdict. When defense lawyers objected to court procedures during the first hearing Saturday, security personnel threatened members of the defense team to silence them, said one of the attorneys, Ahmed Shabeeb. “This whole process is a sham,” he said. Shabeeb said that the defense would appeal and that the sentences still need the approval of the country’s top religious authority before the executions could take place. It used to be common, under longtime autocrat Hosni Mubarak, who was ousted in 2011, for political prisoners to spend years on death row before sometimes being acquitted. But rights groups said the mass sentencing set a fearsome precedent. “This has never happened in the history of the Egyptian judiciary, or the history of any judiciary, as far as I know,” said Mohamed Zera, a lawyer with the Cairo-based Human Rights Center for the Assistance of Prisoners. The closest comparison, he said, was the execution of 106 people after convictions in military courts at “the peak” of Mubarak’s effort to quell an Islamist insurgency in the 1990s. “Today we’re talking about one verdict in one case,” he said, “and it’s more than the number sentenced over the course of an entire decade.” The United States was “deeply concerned, and I would say actually pretty shocked” about the mass death sentences, said Marie Harf, a State Department spokeswoman. “It defies logic” and “certainly does not seem possible that a fair review of evidence and testimony, consistent with international standards,” could have been conducted over a two-day period, she said. Harf said that the United States was raising its concerns with the Egyptian government but that “it’s an important relationship [that we] don’t want to completely cut off.”

in the day and as many as 80 were detained at the site, Ukrainian officials said. With the storming of at least three military facilities in Crimea over the past three days — and the decision by some Ukrainian troops to stay employed by switching to the Russian side — it wasn’t clear how many Ukrainian troops remained on the peninsula. The former chief of Ukraine’s navy, who was charged with treason after he swore allegiance to Crimea’s pro-Russian authorities and urged others to defect, was named a deputy chief of Russia’s Black Sea Fleet. Ukraine’s acting president, Oleksandr Twenty out of the estimated 60 sailors Turchnynov, whose new government in originally on board remained on the ship, Kiev has struggled to maintain control which was later in the day stormed by armed men, presumed to be Russian forces. and cohesion, signed a decree Monday ordering the withdrawal of all serviceDefense Ministry spokesman men in Crimea to Ukraine’s mainland.

The sailors, using a small rubber boat that needed several trips to ferry them to land, were greeted by the taunts of hecklers on the shore. One man shouted they were deserting “rats,” while another man blasted the Russian national anthem from his car. “We aren’t rats, we aren’t running,” said one sailor, who only gave his first name of Yevgeny to discuss a sensitive subject. “Why should we have stayed, what would we have accomplished?”

New Mexico’s favorite type of miracle happens over great Mexican and New Mexican dishes. Valentine’s Plate, at Valentina’s Restaurant on West Alameda, is one of the better miracles happening there at any given moment. While only open for a scant four months, Valentina’s draws on a line of family recipes and Santa Fe’s best Mexican restaurants to offer a fresh, homestyle take on the City Different’s staple cuisine. “It’s my favorite dish, and it sums up what the restaurant is all about,” said Alberto Aboytes, chief proprietor at Valentina’s Restaurant. Valentina’s Plate starts with a blue corn enchilada, Arrachera flank steak and a chalupa served with three prawns to complete a delectable trio. “It’s a fun dish to make, and reminds me of home,” he said. Aboytes worked at El Comal Café

Consumare trying to put down middle-class ers provide those details voluntarily, so roots and for the Obama administrafederal officials say any tally would be tion, experts say. incomplete and possibly misleading.

But concern is showing through, and it’s coming from the highest levels. “You don’t punish me by not signing up for health care,” Obama told Hispanic audiences during a recent televised town hall. “You’re punishing yourself or your family.” Like a candidate hunting for votes in the closing days of a campaign, Obama was back on Hispanic airwaves Monday as Univision Radio broadcast his latest pitch. “The problem is if you get in an accident, if you get sick, or somebody in your family gets sick, you could end up being bankrupt,” the president said. Only last September, three of five Latinos supported the national overhaul, according to the Pew Research Center. Approval dropped sharply during October, as technical problems paralyzed the health care rollout and the Spanish-language version of the healthcare.gov website. Hispanics are now evenly divided in their views. A big Gallup survey recently showed

tepid sign-up progress. While the share of African Americans who are uninsured dropped by 2.6 percentage points this year, the decline among Hispanics was just 0.8 percentage point. In California, where Latinos account for 46 percent of those eligible for subsidized coverage through the exchange, they represented 22 percent of those who had enrolled by the end February and had also volunteered their race or ethnicity. The state is scrambling to improve its numbers in this week’s home stretch. Experts cite overlapping factors behind disappointing Latino sign-ups: u A shortage of in-person helpers to guide consumers. “In our community, trust and confidence is so important — you want to make sure it’s OK before you share all this personal information,” Delgado said. There’s been a lack of “culturally sensitive” outreach to Latinos, added Rep. Lloyd Doggett, D-Texas. u Fear that applying for health care

will bring unwelcome scrutiny from immigration authorities. The health insurance exchanges are only for citizens and legal U.S. residents, but many Hispanic families have mixed immigration status. Some members may be native born, while others might be here illegally. Obama has tried to dispel concerns, repeatedly saying that information on applications will not be shared with immigration authorities. u The decision by many Republicanled states not to expand Medicaid, as they could under the law. With states like Texas and Florida refusing to expand Medicaid, many low-income Latinos will remain uninsured. However, Medicaid expansion is separate from coverage on the exchanges, which is available in every state. Latinos don’t seem motivated to sign up for that, either. u Technical difficulties that delayed the federal government’s Spanish-language enrollment site. Cuidado desalud.gov has also had to cope with clunky translations.

In economic divide, poor smoke more By Sabrina Tavernise and Robert Gebeloff The New York Times

MANCHESTER, Ky. — When smoking first swept the U.S. in the early decades of the 20th century, it took hold among the well-to-do. Cigarettes were high-society symbols of elegance and class, puffed by doctors and movie stars. By the 1960s, smoking had exploded, helped by the distribution of cigarettes to soldiers in World War II. Half of all men and a third of women smoked. But as evidence of smoking’s deadly consequences has accumulated, the broad patterns of use by class have shifted: Smoking, the leading cause of preventable death in the country, is now increasingly a habit of the poor and working class. While previous data established that pattern, a new analysis of federal smoking data released on Monday shows that the disparity is increasing. The national smoking rate has declined steadily, but there is a deep geographic divide. In the affluent suburbs of Washington, D.C., only about 1 in 10 people smoke, according to the analysis, by the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation. But in impoverished places like this — Clay County, in eastern Kentucky — nearly 4 in 10 do. “It’s just what we do here,” said Ed Smith Jr., 51, holding up his cigarette in a hand callused from his job clearing trees away from power lines. Several of his friends have died of lung cancer, and he has tried to quit, but so far has not succeeded. “I want to see my grandson grow up,” he said. This growing gap in smoking rates between rich and poor is helping drive inequality in health outcomes, experts say, with, for example, white women on the lowest rungs of the economic ladder now living shorter lives. Health experts say this finer understanding of who still smokes shows that public health officials need to refocus antismoking efforts on the poor and working class. But, even in Clay County, change could be coming. When Manchester’s ban on smoking in public places went into effect, it was hard to tell who at the Huddle House restaurant hated it more: the clientele or the staff. Two years later, Mike Feltner, a cook, was puffing stealthily on an electronic cigarette (Marlboro flavor) while cooking eggs. He said all four of the smokers on the staff now used the devices. “This is a new phase in this town,” he said. “Everybody’s doing it. Young people, old people, everyone.”

Bump: Contract set to expire at the end of Gonzales’ 4-year term good as it gets when it comes to individuals in Santa Fe.” “Two, when you look at the level of duties that she performs as a city clerk in relation to others around the state, they exceed those duties,” he said. “I think the increase was important for that.” Third, Gonzales said, it is important that Vigil, who supervises a handful of full-time employees, attends City Council meetings and oversees municipal elections, among other duties, receive pay similar to that of other managers at City Hall who have “similar levels of responsibility.” Vigil could not be reached for comment late Monday. Earlier in the

day, her staff said she was headed to meetings and unavailable to talk to a reporter. Under the new contract, Vigil will receive base salary adjustments at the beginning of each fiscal year “commensurate with any cost of living pay increases afforded to other non-union City employees” and “subject to determination of satisfactory job performance by the City Manager.” If she is fired, the contract calls for Vigil to receive a lump sum payment equal to eight weeks of salary “minus applicable withholding taxes and other standard deductions.” If she leaves voluntarily, Vigil won’t receive severance pay. “If the Contractor is involuntarily terminated because of conviction of

Cheating: School principal opts for two-day suspensions Continued from Page A-1 10 of the students have taken advantage of the offer to start again. The other 10, WilsonSegura said, may be in danger of not earning enough credits to graduate. Santa Fe Public Schools Chief of Staff Latifah Phillips said Wilson-Segura decided on the two-day suspension based on her knowledge of the students and in effort to make it a “teachable moment.” Phillips said Superintendent Joel Boyd supported the principal’s decision. The district’s Code of Conduct allows schools some flexibility for punishing students caught cheating. Punishment can involve as little as one day of in-school suspension or up to 10 days of out-of-school suspension. Wilson-Segura said that once the ruse was discovered, the students were called in one by one for questioning. “Most of them owned up to it and apologized. … I was livid,” she said. “They’re good kids, but they have bad issues. They messed up.” The principal said some students took the opportunity to change data repeatedly, while others simply did it once or twice. “They all received the same consequences, regardless of whether they cheated 10 times or once,” she said. Wilson-Segura wasn’t sure how the students managed to get the teacher’s computer password, but she said it is possible the teacher had logged in and then left his computer unattended. “We will never offer E2020 [online learning program] again during the school day,” Wilson-

Segura said. In the past, the school has offered the online courses only during the summer or after school. E2020 allows students who log on with individual student access codes to listen to online lectures and learn at their own pace as they play catch-up on various courses. Capital High School first piloted its E2020 program in 2005. Santa Fe High School also offers an E2020 credit-recovery program for students. Other schools in the region, including the Academy at Larragoite, use the E2020 program for regular course work. Wilson-Segura said she prefers direct, one-on-one instruction for students, but she said computer technology is making its way into the classroom more frequently because that is how many students prefer to learn. “This is their world,” she said. “They work with it more than we do. These kids know more than we do. We are not as technologically advanced as some of these students, and that’s where you see problems.” The district is continuing with its five-year plan to put an age-appropriate computer learning device in the hands of each of its roughly 14,000 K-12 students. Michael Lovato, who oversees the E2020 program at Capital, did not return a call seeking comment Monday evening. Phillips said there is no indication of similar cheating by students at Santa Fe High. Efforts to reach administrators at Santa Fe High School after school hours on Monday were unsuccessful. Contact Robert Nott at 986-3021 or rnott@sfnewmexican.com.

Spell: Seventh-grader inspired by ex-champ Continued from Page A-1 Bas misspelled fidelity in the county bout. Oddly enough, that was the first word he was asked to spell Saturday in the state round. “I said to the judges, ‘Are you kidding me? Is this a joke?’ ” Bas said Monday in an interview at his school. “I started cracking up. I nearly fell on the floor.” This time, he managed to spell fidelity correctly, and he hung in the competition for 25 rounds and more than four hours until silentiary knocked him out. Kumar said he was inspired to master the art of spelling several years ago after watching an older mentor, former spelling bee champion Rajat Singh, take part in competitions. Kumar said he pays attention to the meaning and roots of words so he can go beyond just memorizing how to spell them. For example, he explained that he knows that the Latin word formicivorus refers to some kind of anteater because the second half of the word means “to eat” and the first half of the word means “ant.” Bas said he volunteered to take part in his classroom spelling bee in December, which he won by spelling a word he can’t remember. Then he moved on

to the schoolwide bee and won by correctly spelling ubiquitous. He didn’t enter these contests to become a better speller. Rather, he said, “I just wanted to test myself.” Kumar said he wants to be a structural engineer when he’s done with school. “I wouldn’t choose spelling as a career; I don’t think that’s a choice,” he said. He bemoans the lack of vocabulary and even the lack of vowels in teenage exchanges online. While he doesn’t text his friends, he admits to typing “prtty” for “pretty” and “cl” for “cool” when he writes emails. “In 10 years, I don’t think vowels will be in our written vocabulary,” he said. As for Bas, he said he wants to be an inventor of some sort, unless he becomes a chef or private investigator. “I can’t confirm it. … Lots of things can happen before then,” he said, adding that the point is to “keep improving and improving and improving.” Fidelity, he said, is now a word that he “remembers a lot. Silentiary too.” Contact Robert Nott at 986-3021 or rnott@sfnewmexican.com.

Vigil joined the City Clerk’s Office in July 1984 as a secretary making $5.33 an hour. She worked as assistant city

In a rare show of public displeasure with the city’s embattled police department, Albuquerque Mayor Richard Berry on Monday criticized Albuquerque’s new police chief, Gorden Eden, for making a “premature” judgment about the fatal shooting. The chief said he considers the officers’ actions justified. Erin Thompson, spokeswoman for Berry, said the mayor’s staff contacted the Department of Justice on Monday to ask the agency to investigate the shooting. Elizabeth Martinez, the Justice Department spokeswoman based in Albuquerque, said she couldn’t comment on the case. Frances Madeson, a Santa Fe resident who is organizing the local protest, said the demonstration is intended to help put an end to a “paramilitary police culture” that has instilled fear in New Mexicans.

She said such shootings are a “disproportionate response to a small infraction. … And the sentiment is that it could happen to anybody.” Eden said last week that police responding to a “suspicious person” call found Boyd sleeping at what looked like a makeshift camp. Eden said Boyd later claimed to be a federal agent and demanded to see officers with New Mexico State Police, whom he threatened to kill. “The officers were attempting to effect a felony arrest using less-than-lethal weapons, including a distractive device, K-9 and a Taser shotgun,” Eden said. Authorities said Boyd also threatened to kill a Crisis Intervention Team officer called to the scene. But in the video, Boyd appears ready to cooperate with the officers surrounding him. He tells officers, “All right, don’t change up the agreement. I’m going to try to walk with you.” Boyd then picks up his backpack and some other items. He does not appear to have any knives in his hands at this point. “I’m worried about safety. … I’m not a

murderer,” he says. Just then, an officer is heard saying, “Do it.” A flash-bang grenade is shot at Boyd’s feet. Boyd drops his bag and all the items he was holding. He reaches into his pockets as officers yell at him to get on the ground and start approaching him. He pulls what police later said were knives out of his pockets and waves them at his sides in what appears to be a non-threatening manner. As Boyd starts to turn around, officers fire at him and he falls to the ground. The officers yell at him to drop the knives. “Please don’t hurt me,” Boyd says. “I can’t move.” Another officer shoots him with beanbag rounds, and a police dog mauls him before officers handcuff him. Eden said two officers each unloaded three shots after Boyd made threatening moves and refused to drop a knife. Eden also said police first used bean-bag rounds and stun guns to try to disarm the man. Boyd, who police say had a lengthy criminal record, died later at a hospital.

Search: Slide’s grim dimensions emerge Continued from Page A-1 mile site, using dogs, ground-penetrating radar, aircraft and other tools. But the sense of an expanding disaster — one touching more lives — was unavoidable as a better understanding of the slide’s grim dimensions emerged. Emergency officials said the new list included not just residents, but home repair contractors, visitors and people who were perhaps driving on the state road when the slide released. That the slide happened on a Saturday morning, with children out of school and many adults off work, they said, adds to fears that more people were at home. A compiled census of homes and structures in the slide zone, also released Monday by county officials, identified 49 building or residential sites, 25 of which are believed to have been occupied full time. “Everyone knows someone that’s missing or affected,” said Juanita Beck, the manager of the Stilly Coffee House in Arlington, where responders have established their command center, about 20 miles from the slide. Search and rescue officials said that the slide is still being treated as a rescue operation, but that the chances that anyone might still be found alive were fading. The slide, on a slope east of Oso that also collapsed in 2006, released a surging torrent of rocks, trees and splintered homes. State Route 530 was covered with about 10 to 12 feet of mud and debris. The first portraits of people who died, escaped or, by sheer luck, were at a baseball game or movie during the deadly

slide are starting to emerge as well. Linda McPherson, 68, and her husband, Gary (Mac) McPherson, were sitting in their reclining chairs in the living room in Oso when the mudslide hit, Linda McPherson’s sister, Irene Kuntz, said in a telephone interview Monday. The debris split their home into pieces in an instant. Linda McPherson’s body was recovered soon after, Kuntz said, but Gary McPherson survived and was hospitalized for “pretty serious” injuries, Kuntz said. But he was expected to be released on Monday. “He was trapped in a section of the house,” Kuntz said of Gary McPherson. “The house was split apart, you could say, sections here and there.” Tales of strange and unlikely survival also are starting to emerge. Cory Kuntz, for example, who lived next door to his aunt Linda McPherson in Oso, was with his wife at their son’s baseball game in Tacoma when the mudslide hit. That saved them, said Irene

Kuntz, who is Cory Kuntz’s mother. But their home was flattened. And their dog, who they had left at home while they went to the game, was missing. On Sunday, the family went back to the house, hoping to salvage what they could, and they heard the dog, a lab named Buddy, whimpering inside “a huge pile of stuff.” “He was trapped under a pile of rubbish, broken boards, lots of mud — stuff that had accumulated into a pile, debris,” Irene Kuntz said. Snohomish County’s Public Works director, Steve Thomsen, estimated a total volume of 15 million cubic yards of earth, or the equivalent of about 3 million dump truck loads, came down the mountain in seconds. “The situation is very grim,” Travis Hots, a local fire official, said Monday in a briefing with reporters. “We’re still holding out hope that we’re going to be able to find people that may still be alive. But keep in mind we have not found anybody alive on this pile since Saturday.” He and other rescue workers described a scene of stark devastation and continued danger, with the responder teams and their dogs and machines — probing or peering into the soil — still unable to access certain areas of the debris field because of the risk of sinking into quicksand-like mud. Heavy rains that have saturated western Washington in the last two months — which forecasters predicted would resume Monday night and into the coming days — are considered a major factor in triggering the slide.

The massive mudslide that killed at least 14 people and left dozens missing in Washington is shown in this aerial photo. The search for survivors grew Monday, raising fears that the death toll could climb far beyond the eight confirmed fatalities. TED S. WARREN THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

But he was not especially confident that he would make the ballot. “You know politics in Northern New Mexico,” he said in an interview. “It’s not what you know.

Mendez resigned from the sheriff’s office after Tommy Rodella disciplined him for his involvement in a fight at a casino that was caught on videotape.

Spotlight on turquoise Long-revered gemstone at heart of new exhibit By Anne Constable The New Mexican

N

avajo babies are given their first turquoise beads at birth. The power of turquoise was once considered so great that no horseman would ride without it. Now closely associated with the Southwest, it was also revered on the other side of the world where turquoise was used on the gold funeral mask of Egypt’s King Tutankhamun. Next month, the Museum of Indian Arts & Culture/Laboratory of Anthropology will open an exhibit of 500 items made from this iconic gemstone. The objects include rings, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, silver boxes and other items dating from A.D. 900 to the present. The items come from the museum’s own collection, which includes pieces from the estates of poet Witter Bynner and Santa Fe doctor Don Pierce, as well as works purchased throughout the Southwest in the 1930s by Harry Mera, a longtime curator at the Laboratory of Anthropology. Today, those lucky to own the real thing — heavy squash blossom necklaces, bejeweled belt buckles and cuffs with gigantic cabochons — bring them out for big local occasions, such as Fiesta de Santa Fe. Turquoise jewelry was so valued in the past that it was considered a “wearable bank account” by Native peoples who pawned their jewelry and later reclaimed it after they sold their crops. The gemstone is symbolic of the sky, water, bountiful harvests, health and protection, said Maxine McBrinn, curator of anthropology for the Museum of Indian Arts & Culture. Colors range from blue-green to pale blue. Copper causes turquoise to appear more blue, iron makes it green and zinc contributes a yellow color, McBrinn said Monday. When the real thing wasn’t available, artists used Venetian glass to imitate turquoise and meet tourist demand. Turquoise forms as water seeps slowly through rock in arid areas and interacts with copper, aluminum and iron deposits. The earliest mines were located in dry areas of Egypt, Iran and China. Native Americans had been working with turquoise for about 1,200 years before the Spanish arrived in the Southwest. Some 200 mines have been discovered in this region. The heaviest mining took place between A.D. 1350 and 1600 by people using stone hammers, mauls and adzes. The largest ancient turquoise mine, called Mount Chalchihuitl, was near Cerrillos. Turquoise also was mined at the Tyrone mine southwest

A night of drinking and feuding led a 23-year-old Santa Fe woman to fatally shoot her boyfriend in the back of the neck, according to police statements released Monday. Meagan Sayre is being held at the Santa Fe County jail in lieu of a $100,000 cash bond on a count of murder. She was arraigned in Magistrate Court on Monday afternoon, and a preliminary hearing has been set for April 2. According to a probable cause statement from the Santa Fe SherMeagan iff’s Office, Sayre admitted she shot Sayre her boyfriend in the neck following an argument he had with another man, Richard Garcia, in a mobile home south of the city off N.M. 14. Deputies arrested Sayre on Saturday morning in connection with the death of Oron Rocky Giese, 29. Her attorney, Kitren Fischer, said Sayre plans to plead not guilty and that all the available evidence shows the incident was “a tragic accident.” Giese was a security guard at the Museum of Indian Arts & Culture/Laboratory of Anthropology, where his co-workers were mourning him Monday. “He was a really nice person,” Della Warrior, director of the museum, said about Giese. “He had the nicest smile. Everyone is distressed.” As part of his job, which he had held for nearly two years, Giese rotated through the galleries and answered questions from visitors. “People liked him. He’ll be greatly missed,” said Elena Sweeney, deputy director of the museum. According to a statement by Detective David Jaramillo, Sayre called the dispatch center and told staff

of Silver City and at the Hachita and Santa Rita mines. Much of the turquoise from these mines used today in new jewelry is from private stashes. Turquoise got its old French name because the gemstone, mined in places like Persia, was shipped to Europe through Turkey and presumed by many to have come from there. The most prized color once was robin’s egg blue, but darker stones are more popular today. Only 5 percent to 10 percent of the turquoise mined is hard enough to use, so a lot is “stabilized” with a binder, which reduces the cost significantly, McBrinn said. Stabilization also intensifies the color. While fake turquoise floods today’s market, the color of the stone once was so revered that artists painted wood with ground malachite to make it resemble turquoise. The intent was not to deceive but to create the color of the turquoise. At an event to introduce the exhibit Monday, McBrinn showed off a necklace of turquoise beads, the color of the strand darker around the neck, suggesting that it had been

Española turns to chance to settle election The New Mexican

Woman fatally shoots man in neck following argument with friend

bent Councilor Elaine Herrera trailed the field with 125 votes. But the results were muddied by the fact that a judge removed a fourth candidate, Wray Ortiz, from the ballot after absentee and early voting had already started. In the recount, Chacón lost three votes and Martinez lost one. That left each of them with 167 votes. Now, Chacón is complaining that fraud occurred, and he says he will not participate in any tiebreaking procedure because the election was stolen from him. The tie vote for Chacón and

Martinez was certified Monday night by a three-member panel of city officials and a county magistrate. Española City Attorney Frank Coppler said he expects some sort of chance tiebreaker to be ordered by state District Judge Sarah Singleton, who is overseeing the recount. The judge assigned members of the Rio Arriba County clerk’s staff to monitor the recount. A representative of the Secretary of State’s Office also was involved. Coppler said a coin flip or drawing of lots to determine

whether Chacón or Martinez gets the council seat could occur as soon as Tuesday. The judge could issue subpoenas to all involved and may hold the deciding game of chance in a courtroom because Chacón and others have questioned the honesty of the election. Chacón, 32, said in an interview Monday night that he wouldn’t take part in any tiebreaker. He said he would not dignify the new totals showing a tie because the election was marred by cheating.

ALBUQUERQUE — New Mexico residents now have an advantage over out-of-state hunters when it comes to landing licenses to hunt the state’s bighorn sheep, oryx and ibex thanks to a federal court ruling issued Monday. U.S. District Judge Christina Armijo lifted a longstanding injunction that had prevented the state Game and Fish Department from allocating licenses to hunt the three species based on residency. Armijo, responding to a motion filed by the department, found the injunction was no longer equitable because of changes in the law and court rulings in other states that have backed up quota systems that benefit resident hunters. The injunction stemmed from a legal fight in the 1970s in which David Terk of Texas challenged New Mexico’s higher fees and lower quotas for nonresident hunters. He claimed his equal protection rights under the U.S. Constitution were violated, which resulted in a judge prohibiting New Mexico from imposing quotas when it came to bighorn sheep, oryx and ibex. “This is an important decision and a huge win for New Mexico hunters,” said Paul Kienzle, chairman of the New Mexico Game Commission. “It’s been a long fight, but New Mexicans now have a good shot at those quality hunts, as intended by the governor and the state Legislature.” The Game and Fish Department said it will reinstate quotas starting with this year’s draw to give state residents the same advantage they have now when applying for licenses to hunt other big game animals such as deer and elk. Currently, residents receive 84 percent of all public licenses issued through drawings. Nonresidents get 6 percent and the rest go to hunters who use outfitters. New Mexico sportsmen’s groups had argued that resident hunters had received as little as 7 percent of some bighorn ram hunts because of the injunction. Despite equal odds for drawing a license to hunt bighorn sheep, oryx and ibex, state officials say nonresidents would often get a disproportionately high number of the licenses because so many of them applied for the limited licenses. According to a court brief filed by the New Mexico Wildlife Federal in support of lifting the injunction, New Mexico residents drew just one of 16 bighorn ram tags in 2012. Without the injunction, that number would have been about 13. Santa Fe attorney David Gomez, who filed the brief on behalf of the group, said changes in the legal landscape have helped to solidify the constitutionality of draw systems that give resident hunters in many Western states preference. When it came to drawing a tag for bighorn sheep, oryx or ibex, Gomez said “the system was upside down for New Mexico hunters.” Garrett VeneKlasen, executive director of the New Mexico Wildlife Federation, said the injunction resulted in “blatant discrimination” for New Mexico hunters for more than 30 years.

COLORADO PLANE CRASH

Five bodies found in wreckage By Dan Elliott

The Associated Press

DENVER — The bodies of five people were found inside the wreckage of a singleengine plane that crashed into a cold, murky reservoir in southwestern Colorado over the weekend, authorities said Monday. The wreckage will have to be brought to shore before the bodies can be removed, Ouray County spokeswoman Marti Whitmore said. The plane is about 60 or 70 feet underwater and upside down in about 3 feet of silt, officials said. A salvage team is expected to begin raising the wreckage on Wednesday. The bodies were spotted with a remote-control video camera, and divers confirmed them, Whitmore said. Authorities haven’t released the identities of the victims but said the flight originated in Gadsden, Ala. The single-engine Socata TBM700 crashed at about 2 p.m. Saturday into Ridgway Reservoir, about 25 miles south of Montrose and about 180 miles southwest of Denver. The plane was bound for Montrose and had made an intermediate stop in Bartlesville, Okla., Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said. The cause of the crash isn’t yet known. According to preliminary reports, the pilot reported that the plane was in a spin before losing communication, National Transportation Safety Board spokesman Eric Weiss said Monday. That’s consistent with an eyewitness

account from a woman who was attending a wedding nearby when the plane crashed. “It popped out of the thick, heavy clouds and went into a flat spin,” Lena Martinez told the Ouray County Plaindealer. Such eyewitness accounts have been turned over to the FAA and the NTSB for their investigations. The tail separated from the plane, but the rest of the wreckage was relatively complete, although damaged, authorities said. Sheriff Dominic Mattivi said one wing was nearly severed. The plane is registered to an Alabama

corporation. Messages left for the company weren’t immediately returned. In Alabama, a makeshift memorial appeared outside Gadsden’s Mitchell Elementary School for two boys thought to have been on the plane. Two small football helmets, two teddy bears, flowers and candles were piled among written notes from classmates. Stephen Powell of Gadsden brought his 9-year-old son to the memorial Monday afternoon. Powell said he had to make two stops because his son was too upset to get out of the car the first time.

Chance: Some speculate votes were stolen Continued from Page A-7 “There was definite fraud,” Chacón said. He said he had assembled “a team of lawyers” and planned to sue the city to have the entire election held again. At one point, Chacón even said that Martinez was related to the mayor, Alice A. Lucero, who won re-election. Cheating had infected the mayor’s race and likely the election as a whole, he said. “I personally saw people’s ballots before they mailed them in, and in my opinion, ballots that didn’t have the incumbent mayor were thrown out by someone at City Hall,” Chacón said. Martinez, 38, said Chacón was dead wrong in at least one of his allegations. Martinez said she is not related to the mayor, and that her campaign was honest from start to end. After finishing two votes behind Chacón on election night, Martinez asked for a recount. She had to pay $320 to launch the process, money that the city attorney said would be returned to her because the election results did indeed change once the votes were recounted by hand.

“I felt in my heart that I was going to win because I worked so hard,” Martinez said. “I thought the recount was worth it.” She said she did not want the race to come down to a coin flip or other chance drawing, but she said she will respect the system because that is what the law calls for in case of a tie. Martinez said people all across Española are speculating that votes were stolen. She said she was concerned herself, given that more votes were counted than there were people who signed in to vote. But, she said, the “heading” that listed Ortiz as a candidate remained in voting machines even after he was removed from the ballot. It is possible that this contributed to the varying vote totals, she said. Martinez said incumbent Herrera actually lost the most votes, with her total dropping from 125 to 118 because of an apparent readout error in the voting machine tallies. Still, Martinez questioned why a vote was taken from her and wondered if that part of the count was accurate. Chacón said all three votes he lost in the recount were from the pool of those who voted early or by absentee ballot, whereas

Martinez was docked a vote from someone who voted in person. “Something fishy happened,” he said. Chacón said he is a Republican, a rarity in Española politics, and that he was pulled over by police officers after he criticized their chief at a public meeting. All these factors made him question the honesty and accuracy of the election, he said. On March 9, two days after he was sworn in to the nonpartisan council seat, Chacón was arrested on suspicion of punching and choking his 13-year-old son. He said allegations by his former wife led to his arrest. Police, however, said the boy sent a message of complaint to his mom, describing his neck injuries and saying “my dad almost killed me.” For Chacón, the election will not end with a coin flip or other random means of selecting a winner. He said he will file an objection to the recount to go along with fraud and bribery allegations he made to the secretary of state last week.

THE NEW MEXICAN Tuesday, March 25, 2014

e-Voices Our Web readers speak out: Over objections, school board OKs contract for program to recruit dropouts, March 18 This is another example of the teachers’ union “ only caring about [itself] and unwilling to improve

the state’s historically low education numbers. The unholy alliance between teachers’ unions and Democratic politicians is the problem, not some boogeyman that wants to starve the beast.” W.B.S.

The single biggest issue facing our local education “ system and workforce development is our dropout rate. Offering students a chance to re-enter the classroom should be supported.” S.B.

If public tax money geared to education is to be given to a private corporation to teach our children, then they must have a charter that can be approved by the public, as any charter school, so as to protect the principles of what public education is about. This otherwise sets a precedent for any private group to be teaching our children with their particular agenda.” M.M.

LOOKING IN: MAURY CASTRO

Pope Francis sets right priorities T he new pope is resetting the Catholic Church’s priorities and is shifting some issues from the top of the old agenda to a level that is more harmonious with Jesus’ teachings. The hot-button issues that had dominated the church discourse like abortion and same-sex relationships, classified as “intrinsic evils” by the Council of Bishops, as well as the Priests for Life, became divisive and effective tools for the Republican demagogues in their quest for political power. This dynamic was especially obvious in the 2004 Bush campaign victory. The crafty strategy drove a wedge into a growing Hispanic population that has become a deciding factor in close races.

Unfortunately, the narrow focus of the church’s agenda meant benign neglect of other equally important, if not more critical, human needs overlooked by this single-issue campaign. World hunger and povMaury erty, human rights, cataCastro strophic climate change occurrences, abusive financial entities, unjust wars and insurrection, diseases (HIV, AIDS) and substance addiction, ad nauseam, are grave concerns that seem to have taken a back seat to “intrinsic evils.” Pope Francis is bringing needed change. He is more concerned about the plight

of the poor and communicates this in word and deed. Not good news for the 1-percenter elites. “Who am I to judge?” he exclaimed on the subject of homosexual priests. He is not changing the church’s stand on abortion by any means but merely placing this issue in its proper prospective. Hopefully, that will remove it from the Republican war chest as the wedge so effectively used in the political arena. Maury Castro is a retiree and an activist serving on the Health Security for New Mexicans Campaign executive committee. Castro worked as a miner in Grant County and as an administrator with the New Mexico Department of Education.

Experts say strongly worded police curriculum is risky with cadets, March 22 The curriculum seems designed to make officers “ fearful, despite the fact the cops don’t have particu-

larly dangerous jobs. Cops who ‘fear for their lives’ (the standard excuse they use after each of their murders) should not be armed. They need a desk job or a different job. The Albuquerque Police Department … seems to have mastered this portion of the curriculum.” H.B.

I believe our police officers are brave people, and “ I very much respect what they do for us in the line of

duty. It is a fact that we live in a disrespectful society where the perpetrator has all the rights. Even our justice system has its hands tied. Whenever I see a police officer and get the chance, I thank them for what they do. Thank God we have them. Whatever protection we can give in helping them do their difficult job is warranted. The pendulum needs to swing back to teaching respect in our society for those who serve us.” A.F. Deputy chief defends $50 rent for home site at city park, March 21

I always thought these types of situations were a “ win-win, but $50 is way out of line. … Mind you, I think

something must be done to keep our police living in town, but this is highway robbery. I am not surprised he shows no shame though. It’s a cop thing, no doubt. Sin verguenza! Newer police, if they find themselves with such an offer, should pay $300.” M.O.

Let’s keep in mind that he’s not renting a home “ for $50 a month, just a site for a mobile home that he owns. What’s the going rate for a mobile home space in a mobile home park in Santa Fe?” P.K.

Fifty dollars a month? That’s outrageous! The “ deputy chief should be getting this for free — in fact,

the city should probably be paying him for this extra service that he provides on top of his duties. I visit Ashbaugh Park on a regular basis, and I am very satisfied to have a police department representative there, keeping the place free from graffiti and litter. Come on, people. We have a lot of problems to worry about. This ain’t one of them.” B.F.

I’m usually among the first to criticize the police; “ but I don’t think this is a situation worthy of ‘torches

and pitchforks’-level outrage. … It’s just rent for the space. The trailer and utilities are his to pay. I doubt that he was responsible for setting the rent amount, so why blame him for that? And I don’t think it’s relevant that his income is on the high side, for a police officer. Perhaps the rent should be doubled. Would that get you to back off a bit? Good.” P.S. County panel rejects open-pit mine on La Bajada mesa, March 20

It is indeed a good day when the wishes of many “ are not trumped by the greed of a few! Thanks to

the County Development Review Committee and all those who worked so hard to insure this mine was stopped.” P.T.

We are pleased that the CDRC voted no on the “ Rockology and Buena Vista-proposed open pit mine

on La Bajada mesa. However, our next effort is to tell our county commissioners that we expect them also to say no to Rockology and Buena Vista. By the way, we all see the irony in the Buena Vista corporation wanting to mess up its buena vista at La Bajada.” L.G.

Nation’s future remains at risk

F

inally, Congress has completed its budget process without another government shutdown and raised the nation’s debt ceiling without seriously threatening default. Unfortunately, though, once again elected officials in Washington have postponed action on the larger challenge of fiscal sustainability — a challenge rooted in an aging population, growing health care costs and a grossly inefficient tax system. Our nation’s future remains at risk. While the annual deficit is down, the total federal debt is very high by historical standards and is projected to continue climbing — pushing the government’s interest payments upward as well. Congress has done little to address the major drivers of the large deficits projected within a few years: the rapidly growing costs of social programs and the subsidies embedded in an overly complex tax code. A budget deal in December set the total amounts of “discretionary spending” — which Congress approves on an annual basis — for fiscal 2014 and 2015. This spending is roughly split between defense and non-defense. Most people do not realize, however,

that such discretionary spending accounts for less than a third of the total budget. Most elected officials have deluded themselves with unrealistic plans that call for deep cuts in only this one part of the budget. The imbalances in “mandatory programs” such as Social Security and Medicare, and the tax subsidies of more than $1 trillion a year, remain largely untouched. Dealing with these challenges is essential to the nation’s economic growth and prosperity. The recent passage of a new budget may not necessarily signal a permanent change in the pattern of budgeting by crisis and special-interest giveaways. In fact, lawmakers have already reversed one of the key reforms in that budget package — a modest change in the way cost-of-living pension benefits are calculated for workingage military veterans. The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office just released its 10-year budget outlook. In a society saturated by media information on all kinds of issues, these three wonky sentences are among the most important you will read this year. The large budget deficits recorded in recent years have substantially increased

federal debt, and the amount of debt relative to the size of the economy is now high by historical standards. CBO estimates that federal debt held by the public will equal 74 percent of GDP at the end of this year and 79 percent in 2024 (the end of the current 10-year projection period). Such large and growing federal debt could have serious negative consequences, including restraining economic growth in the long term, giving policymakers less flexibility to respond to unexpected challenges and eventually increasing the risk of a fiscal crisis (in which investors would demand high interest rates to buy the government’s debt). The math of fiscal reform is politically difficult for elected officials in both parties. They will need to tell fervent partisans, on the right and the left, that they cannot have something for nothing. It is, however, just that kind of leadership that is needed if America is to thrive in the coming years. Paul Hansen is the Western States Regional Director for the Concord Coalition, a nonpartisan group dedicated to educating the public about the causes and consequences of federal budget deficits.

The trifecta of a bad harvest, demand and drug cartels in Mexico’s lime-growing areas has made prices skyrocket: a 40-pound case of limes sells wholesale to grocery stores for $115, more than triple its previous historic high. If you think your Mexican neighbors pick from your fruit tree a lot, you ain’t seen nothing yet … Ask the Mexican at themexican@aska mexican.net, be his fan on Facebook, follow him on Twitter @gustavoarellano or follow him on Instagram @gustavo_arellano!

Early school release benefits all involved

R

egarding the issue of early release for Santa Fe Public Schools elementary school students, it is important for parents and other community members to understand that the early release schedule does not reduce the time that students spend in class. In fact, a halfhour is added to the end of each day, Monday through Thursday, to compensate for the two-hour earlier dismissal time on Fridays. Therefore, students are not losing class time. Instead, they are gaining longer learning blocks on four out of five school days. These longer learning blocks are beneficial because they provide students with more uninterrupted time in which to concentrate and focus on their lessons. Students also benefit when their teachers have longer, uninterrupted planning blocks for grading papers, planning lessons and collaborating with colleagues. Teachers cannot perform these critical functions, which help us meet the needs of our diverse student body, while we are teaching our students. Erica Wheeler

Republican myths Gov. Susana Martinez, in asserting that lower taxes will create jobs (which they haven’t), situates herself in the mainstream of Republican myths. These include deregulation, largesse to big businesses, destroying labor unions — and the belief that those on food stamps, the unemployed and the poor generally are moochers who deserve their poverty.

In the 17th century, the New Testament god (who abhorred wealth and greed) — or the medieval god (who lauded poverty and monastic life) — changed his mind and decided that capitalism was good. Calvinism saw external success as reflecting inner merit. Conversely, poverty reflected degenerate character. The rich couldn’t applaud enough. God had finally come to his senses. Social Darwinism confirmed this wisdom, which Republicans use today to justify worshipping the wealthy and whipping the poor. Roger Carasso

Missing bags I went to the grocery store recently to buy a few items. One of the items was a glass container of pickles. I paid for the items, and noticed that there were no paper bags. I asked; the store had run out.

I had to carry my armload of items to the car. By sheer luck I didn’t drop the pickle jar. This plastic bag ordinance is beyond ridiculous. Are the bags really that big of a problem, or is the goal to bring a bit of California to Santa Fe? Grocery bags have been provided to shoppers for decades. I shouldn’t have to provide my own. In any event, since I can still get plastic bags at White Rock, I will shop there for groceries. I’m sure they will appreciate the gross receipt taxes they get from me. David Martinez

Comparing haze in Paris, smog in Beijing

A

A-11

s Parisians were choked by the city’s worst, Eiffel Tower-obscuring smog since 1997, they were left to ask the same, depressing question: How does this compare with Beijing? As it happens, not well. For a few days at least, the air quality in Paris was much worse than in Beijing. (This was partially due to an unusual clean spell in Beijing.) Paris responded last week by imposing an alternating-day driving ban, starting Monday with even-numbered plates and continuing Tuesday with odd-numbered ones. That seemed to do the trick. On Monday, after one day of restrictions, the smog lifted and so did the ban. “Bravo, and thank you,” wrote Philippe Martin, France’s ecology minister, in a message to the city’s car owners. He shouldn’t get too cocky. As a short-term, politically expedient solution, driving bans can be highly effective. But long term, study after study shows that driving bans are not only ineffective but also possibly counterproductive as drivers figure out ways to circumvent the regulations, sometimes by purchasing cars that can be used on restricted days (a car for Monday, a car for Tuesday), switching commutes — and pollution — to non-restricted hours or simply choosing longer routes that avoid restricted roads while requiring more fuel. Consider, for example, Beijing’s experience both before and after the 2008 Olympics. In advance of the games, Beijing promised to clean up the city’s air. The government shut down polluting industries around the capital and forced 300,000 vehicles off the roads during the games. It also required new cars to meet European emission standards and

imposed an alternating-day car ban much like the one in Paris, resulting in a daily reduction of 2 million on-road vehicles. The results were spectacular: Compared with 2007, emissions of black carbon by diesel vehicles — the source of much of the pollution in Beijing and Paris — declined 33 percent, according to a Cornell University study. In October 2008, the driving restrictions were loosened to a once-per-week prohibition (based on the last digit of license plate numbers), which remains in effect. Predictably, Beijing gave back airquality gains (not all or even most givebacks relate to cars; restrictions on industry in and around Beijing also were given back). A 2011 study by the U.S. National Bureau of Economic Research found that 60 percent of Beijing’s substantial Olympics-related gains in pollution control in 2008 had evaporated within a year. As for car-specific pollution, data collected from an unpublished study at the University of California at Davis has failed to find any evidence that the post-Olympics driving ban reduced pollutants. In fact, the most tangible outcome of the post-Olympics driving ban is that it gave Beijingers a long-term incentive to circumvent it — an incentive that didn’t exist when the ban was temporary. According to a September 2013 study by Environment for Development, a project of the Swedish International Development Cooperation, 47.8 percent of Beijing’s regulated car owners now violate the restrictions and drive illegally on a regular basis. In Beijing, where circumventing driving bans (including restrictions on obtaining a license plate) has literally become an industry, this comes as no surprise.

Purchasing additional cars to get around bans isn’t unknown; counterfeiting and renting license plates are common. Indeed, since the end of the Olympics, according to Environment for Development, Beijing’s used-car sales doubled, and in 2010 traffic-congestion measurements almost equaled those in 2007. Why should Paris care? There’s no telling whether Monday’s one-day driving ban was decisive in cleaning up the city’s air. But assuming it was, part of the reason is that the city’s drivers were caught off-guard and simply didn’t have a chance to figure out ways around the policy. As a long-term solution — and sooner or later Paris will need one — a driving ban, even one combined with free public transport, as Paris offered over the weekend, won’t do much more than create committed lawbreakers. The experiences of Beijing and other cities around the world have proven that. The long-term solution to Paris’ woes will require politically hard choices, starting with a long-delayed elimination of subsidized, highly polluting (compared with gasoline) diesel fuel, which France uses far more than most developed countries. It won’t be easy; diesel has strong industry and political support in France. But if the city hopes to avoid comparisons with Beijing, it would be well-advised to avoid repeating Beijing’s gimmicky mistakes.

uring the recent municipal election, much talk centered on the Santa Fe City Council paying attention to the nuts and bolts of business — basic services, public safety and the like. This Wednesday, the council is scheduled to consider a resolution that might appear to go somewhat far afield, something many voters and candidates said they want to see less of in the new administration. It’s a resolution, without force of law, opposing the Public Service Company of New Mexico’s energy replacement plan for the San Juan Generating Station. That, of course, is more than 200 miles away in the Four Corners area, near Farmington. The plan came about because the old, coal-fired plant is a polluter. (PNM operates the plant and owns about 46 percent of the output. Other utilities share the remaining ownership.) Through the Clean Air Act Regional Haze Requirements, PNM is being forced by the federal government to clean up its act. A deal made last year among the utility, the Environmental Protection Agency and the state of New Mexico is designed to lead to the closing of units 2 and 3 at the San Juan Generating Station, installation of pollution controls on units 1 and 4, and the reduction of state permit levels for nitrogen oxide and sulfur dioxides. These are positive steps for the environment, but PNM could go further. That’s the point of the city of Santa Fe’s resolution — by opposing the deal as written, the City Council wants to encourage PNM to add more renewables to its energy portfolio to replace the two units being shut down. Adjustments could save money and diversify the company’s energy portfolio while also reducing pollution. Opponents of this deal would like to see coal phased out, with units 1 and 4 moved out of production eventually as well. Many people aren’t pleased, either, with PNM’s plan to add nuclear into the mix as a replacement for power produced by the soon-to-be-shut units 2 and 3. Santa Fe, of course, gets its electricity from the San Juan Generating Station. That’s reason enough for the city to be concerned. As citizens of New Mexico and the United States, Santa Feans also have an interest in the preservation of area national parks and wilderness areas, including Mesa Verde National Park. Pollution is damaging visibility in the area, as well as making people who live there sick with asthma and other respiratory illnesses. Water, of course, is always an issue. The state is in drought, yet the plant uses more than 6 billion gallons a year. Obviously, we need electricity, but the question is how best to assure that future power needs are met while still reducing pollution and water use. It is of interest to all of Santa Fe to get the most costeffective, water-wise and pollution-free energy. By weighing in, the City Council can bring its clout down on the side of amending this agreement before it is set in stone (the Public Regulation Commission will play an important role in deciding how power from the closed units will be replaced). The city resolution has been discussed and is up for a vote Wednesday. Santa Fe should go on record as asking PNM to do more. Continuing to rely on coal, adding nuclear and natural gas sources for power but barely tapping into solar and wind potential is not enough. Neither is PNM’s request to stick ratepayers with costs of $250 million for the two retiring units. Should enough important players — and the city is certainly one — oppose the deal as written, there is opportunity to make changes that will be better for the environment, for customers, for the plant’s neighbors and even for the energy company that controls the plant.

There Wendy and Doug Dayton, according might also be a larger multipurpose to the artspace.org website. and flexible performance area. Sur-

Conn, who spoke at a recent lunch event sponsored by the home builders, said the surveys show there is no doubt a need in Santa Fe for affordable arts-centered housing and the city can actually support a project with 85 units, but Artspace will focus on one about half that size. Along with funding from the city, Creative Santa Fe is now spending $150,000 on site selection, researching 10 locations and then hoping to pare that down to three for more detailed analysis. A final site decision might come by the end of summer, with design work in 2015 and construction by the middle of next year. Rebecca Wurtzburger, a former city councilor, is among those pushing the St. Michael’s corridor for the project as a way to anchor the redevelopment effort called “RE: MIKE.” “It can serve as the one trigger project that can lead to revitalization of the whole area,” Wurtzburger said. “St. Mike’s is a possibility, but we’re looking at the whole city,” said Conn,

including the Baca Street area of the Railyard, downtown and Siler Road. Wherever it locates, the space will transform and anchor its neighborhood. The median age for those living downtown, for instance, is 70 years old, while the Baca Street area is 46 years. The median age for St. Michael’s Drive is 35 years old. Conn emphasized the key to the project’s long-term viability is “perpetual affordability.” When artists and creatives move into neighborhoods, they often become hip and desirable. There is a so-called “Soho effect” with rising rents and prices. But with Artscape owning and managing the units, which would qualify for lowincome tax credits, occupants will have to re-qualify every year based on income. Moving out equates with economic success, though Conn prefers the term “graduated.” The other aspect of the $15 million project that has the attention of home builders and contractors is that all the work will be locally preferenced, so

Artspace can be “an economic driver for the community,” Conn said. Local contracts do not mean Albuquerque general contractors with Santa Fe workers, but with Santa Fe firms front and center in all aspects of the building and site work, she said. Once finished, there would be no government or local involvement — the building would be managed by Artspace, which has a staff of real estate managers at its Minneapolisbased headquarters. And that fits well into what the city Economic Development Division is aiming to accomplish with its focus on City Different creatives, said Kate Noble, housing and community development director. “Santa Fe is never going to win on cheap real estate or cheap labor,” Noble said. But creative types, engaging people, their creative and innovative work, we need “to hold a big old magnifying glass over that.” Contact Bruce Krasnow at brucek@ sfnewmexican.com.

Award-winning Emmys site puts Santa Fe firm in spotlight

Dynamic designers By Chris Quintana The New Mexican

T

he state’s highest profile Web design firm is based in Santa Fe, but it doesn’t have an office. One of its employees works in Albuquerque, others are scattered across the United States, and one even telecommutes from Ukraine. But it’s nothing unusual for Dickon Sire and Jee Vahn Knight, whose firm, Dsire, recently redesigned the website for the Primetime Emmy Awards and took home awards in the process. Dsire also has designed Web pages for companies such as Disney, Paramount and DreamWorks Studios, and its team created the sites for blockbusters such as The Wolf of Wall Street, Shrek the Third, both Kill Bill films and revamped the Indiana Jones series website. How Sire and Vahn Knight teamed up is itself unusual. Sire, a Los Angeles transplant, said he had a brain tumor about three years ago, and he needed someone to watch his business while he underwent and recovered from surgery. So he placed a Craigslist ad, and after a lunch at Saigon Cafe with Vahn Knight, they decided to go into business together. Perhaps it’s those unusual situations that led them to their biggest contract, the Primetime Emmy Awards and other auxiliary sites for the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, which puts on the Emmys. That deal came thanks to some projects they had done with Disney and Sire’s previous work for movies. The project manager at Disney was picked up by the Emmys, so he was familiar with Dsire’s work. The firm received the request-forproposal information on a Thursday, Vahn Knight said, and it was due by the following Friday, which meant a flurry of work. The two learned a week later that they had received the contract, but that marked the beginning of the real work. It was about mid-May, and the Televi-

sion Academy wanted the job finished by August. And it wasn’t just a matter of creating a new website, already an arduous task, but also of cataloging and transferring 60-plus years of data related to the Emmys. The site also had to handle heavy traffic on both the front and back ends, including millions of individual visitors during the Emmys broadcast, Sire said. Producers needed to update the site quickly and frequently as new winners were announced and recent photos were uploaded. Sire and Vahn Knight said that the week prior to the broadcast, the firm spent 20 hours a day working on the site. That required much of the team to be together, Vahn Knight said, and they worked out of a hotel conference room in California. The site had 3.5 million unique visitors the night of the Emmys, Vahn Knight said, and the firm’s work earned it best in class honors from the Interactive Media Awards, which according to its site recognizes “the highest standards of excellence in website design and development.” The Emmys website reflects a trend Dsire would like continue. Unlike websites for films — which, once theatrical and Blu-ray/ DVD releases come and go, become less useful — the Emmys happen every year, and people continue to visit the site long before and after the September ceremony. The firm is proud of the Emmys site, but working for a national organization comes with unintended consequences. Specifically, smaller businesses view Dsire with trepidation, Vahn Knight said, and the firm hired an Albuquerque public relations company to reach out to the public. Although Vahn Knight and Sire admitted their services might not be for everyone, they added that work on a smaller site doesn’t “cost an arm and a leg.” And they’re happy to chat with anyone. “Yeah, we did the Emmys site, but let’s sit down,” Sire said. “It’s free to talk.” Sire can be reached at 913-7178 or dickson@dsire.com and Vahn Knight at 216-6137 or jee@dsire.com.

In brief

Website: Santa Fe one of 5 worst housing markets Remember all those predictions a year ago about Santa Fe being among the best markets for home-price appreciation in the United States? One writer in June 2013 predicted 9 percent annualized home price gains based on Santa Fe’s lower-than-average unemployment rates. Well, now it looks like Santa Fe has made another list: one of the five worst markets in the United States. According to MarketWatch, “Inventory rose 35.2 percent in Santa Fe in February, compared with February 2013. It took a median 175 days for a home listing to sell. The median listing price: $379,800, up 0.2 percent from a year ago.” Other lagging markets listed also seem to be towns driven by tourism and second-home buyers: Myrtle Beach, S.C.; Wilmington and Asheville, N.C.; and southern South Carolina. There is hope, though, as one of the best markets now was one those hardest hit by the downturn — Stockton-Lodi, Calif.

Dsire has designed Web pages for companies such as Disney, Paramount and DreamWorks Studios, and its team created the sites for blockbusters such as The Wolf of Wall Street, pictured, Shrek the Third, both Kill Bill films and the Indiana Jones series.

“Once a poster child for the foreclosure crisis, homes are moving quickly in Stockton,” MarketWatch reports. “And inventory is increasing, too — most likely because as prices rise, fewer homeowners are underwater on their mortgages and can actually afford to sell. Inventory increased 101.2 percent in February, compared with the year before. The median age of inventory was 46 days. The median listing price: $248,600, up 38.9 percent from a year ago.

Thousands have unclaimed tax refunds from 2010 The IRS estimates there are more than 7,000 New Mexico residents who have tax refunds coming to them for 2010 but cannot receive them unless they file a return. Throughout the United States, refunds totaling almost $760 million might be waiting for an estimated 918,600 taxpayers who did not file a federal income tax return for 2010, the IRS announced. In New Mexico, the IRS estimates 7,200 taxpayers did not file a 2010 federal income tax return, potentially leaving $5,915,000 on the table. To collect the money, a return for 2010 must be filed with the IRS no later than April 15.

“The window is quickly closing for people who are owed refunds from 2010 who haven’t filed a tax return,” said IRS Commissioner John Koskinen. “We encourage students, part-time workers and others who haven’t filed for 2010 to look into this before time runs out on April 15.” The IRS estimates that half the potential refunds for 2010 are more than $571. For New Mexicans, the average amount is $572. Some people may not have filed because they had too little income to require filing a tax return, even though they had taxes withheld from their wages or made quarterly estimated payments. In cases where a return was not filed, the law provides most taxpayers with a three-year window of opportunity for claiming a refund. If no return is filed to claim a refund within three years, the money becomes property of the U.S. Treasury. Current and prior-year tax forms and instructions are available on the Forms and Publications page of IRS.gov or by calling 800-TAX-FORM (800-829-3676).

LEXINGTON, Ky. t’s Kentucky and Louisville, one more time. One of college basketball’s fiercest rivalries takes center stage Friday night when the Wildcats and defending national champion Cardinals meet in the Sweet 16 in Indianapolis. The Bluegrass State showdown will take place at Lucas Oil Stadium, home of the NFL’s Colts, which will be configured to hold 35,000 basketball fans. Those seats will be filled with fans clad in blue and red gear, many of whom will make a 3-hour drive for a game they wouldn’t dare miss. The schools have won the past two NCAA championships and are playing their best basketball of the season right now. Both fan bases expected their teams to reach the Midwest Regional semifinal, and they also expect their schools to advance. “I know one thing, Lucas Oil Stadium is going to have 45,000 to 50,000 people there,” said Kentucky season ticket holder Bob Baldwin, who plans on attending the game. “Even though it’s not set up for the whole gig like it was three to four years ago when they had the national championship there, it’s Kentucky and Louisville and it’s going to be crazy.” Some Louisville and Kentucky fans felt as if they hit the lottery on Monday. Each school is allotted a block of 1,250 all-session tickets. Indiana Sports Corp. spokesman John Dedman said in an email the other 30,000 tickets will be sold to the general public or given to other groups, presumably sponsors.

Goodell, union to meet on workplace environment By Barry Wilner

The Associated Press

ORLANDO, Fla. — Commissioner Roger Goodell says the NFL will meet April 8 with the players union to discuss improving the workplace environment. In the wake of the Miami Dolphins bullying scandal, league representatives have met with some 40 players in the past three months, as well as with the Dolphins and outside organizations, Goodell said Monday at the NFL owners meetings. The league is trying to get “as much input as pos-

sible. It’s more about people understanding the importance of a proper workplace.” Goodell added the focus is on medical evaluations of the players involved, including tackle JonaRoger than Martin, who left Goodell the Dolphins in the middle of last season, saying he was harassed by guard Richie Incognito. Martin was traded to the 49ers earlier this month. An NFL investigation determined

Incognito and two other Miami Dolphins offensive linemen engaged in persistent harassment of Martin.

Even though Blue said he won’t know where his seats are until he arrives, he won’t give them up for anything. “I’m lucky just to be in the building,” Blue said. “Everybody knows I won’t pass up a chance to see the Cardinals play, and there’s no price that I’d take for these tickets.” Kentucky-Louisville follows MichiganTennessee and is scheduled to tip at 7:45 p.m. Because of the late start, some Wildcats and Cardinals plan to make a day of it, maybe see some of the city, possibly have dinner and catch the first game before settling in for the game that really matters.

was particularly satisfying, with the Dayton Daily News running a front-page headline the next day referring to the winners as “THE University of Dayton” — a jab at the Buckeyes. After the win over Syracuse, President Obama tweeted on the White House’s account: “Congrats to the DaytonFlyers on a huge upset win! Devin Oliver, I may need to take you up on that pick-up game one of these days. -bo” Oliver was a star guard at Kalamazoo (Mich.) Central High School, where Obama gave a commencement address in 2010. He met the president and challenged him to a oneon-one match. He was surprised that he remembered. “That’s just more icing on the cake to where we’re already at,” Oliver said on Monday. “More than anything, I hope he responds and actually takes me up on it. That would be really cool.” The Flyers were still trying to get back on schedule Monday after their wild weekend. They returned to Dayton after

the win over Syracuse, their bus reaching campus around 3:30 a.m. with an estimated 200 students waiting up to greet them. “Well, I was a little bit worried that they were going to tip the bus over, seeing some of the photos and some of the action before we landed,” Miller said. “It was overwhelming. I was happy for our fans and really happy for our students. “This is what it’s about, what in my mind that a proud tradition deserves.” There wasn’t much time to catch up on sleep over the weekend. Senior center Matt Kavanaugh, whose uncles and fathers attended Dayton, got about five hours of rest before waking up to watch Stanford’s 60-57 upset of Kansas on Sunday. Sleep? “I was ready to watch the games,” Kavanaugh said. “I was too excited to miss any moment of it.” Nobody in Dayton is sleeping through this tournament.

This will be the 47th meeting between Kentucky and Louisville, including the fifth in the NCAA Tournament. The last tournament meeting was two years ago in the national semifinal. Kentucky won that and went on to win its eighth national title. Louisville fan Rob Baker vowed to see this game after missing that New Orleans meeting. “I’ll be there for sure this time,” Baker said while eating lunch in downtown Louisville on Monday. “It’ll be nice to see them get revenge.” The schools are located just 80 miles apart, and Bluegrass basketball fans are determined to follow their teams to the ends of the earth. Big Blue Nation, the nickname for Kentucky’s fervent fans, is well-known for invading road venues, especially tournaments and neutral sites. This month’s

Southeastern Conference tourney in Atlanta at Philips Arena was swamped by Wildcats fans. They affectionately rename the city “Cat-lanta” when they’re in town. Louisville’s followers are just as dedicated. Blue pointed to the large Cardinals contingent in Indianapolis for last year’s regional and the Final Four in Atlanta, where Louisville won its third title. Friday will mark another battleground site between the schools and their fans are excited about how the bracket brought them together for another showdown. It figures to be a hot ticket, with $55 singlesession seats already selling for nearly three times face value on StubHub.com. Not surprisingly, StubHub spokesman Glenn Lehrman said 46 percent of Midwest ticket sales are coming from the state of Kentucky, with 25 percent coming from the city of Louisville.

Irish: 2 wins from 4th straight Final Four zona State on Monday night. Natalie Achonwa had 25 points and 11 rebounds, and Notre Dame advanced to the Sweet 16 for the 12th time in the last 18 years. The Irish (34-0) are now two wins from their fourth straight Final Four — and they’re heading back home. The regional semifinals and final will be played at Notre Dame. “Our fans, family and friends do so much for us,” Achonwa said. “To be able to go back and play in front of them, I know as a senior it means a lot to me.” Notre Dame will face the winner of Monday’s game between fourth-seeded Purdue and fifth-seeded Oklahoma State. The Irish have won their last 15 games by double digits, although the Sun Devils (23-10) kept this one close until about midway through the second half. Deja Mann scored

DAYTON, Ohio — For the last 14 years, the NCAA Tournament has started with play-in games and the First Four at the University of Dayton Arena. The home team? Didn’t even get in the bracket most times. This year, it’s flying high. With two close wins under daunting circumstances, the Flyers have turned Dayton into more than just a starting point for the NCAA Tournament. It’s become a focal point. President Obama is tweeting about it. The national media is talking about it. Students are staying up until the early morning hours celebrating the Flyers’ first trip to the Sweet 16 in 30 years. “This opportunity is a oncein-a-lifetime chance,” guard Jordan Sibert said Monday before practice. Given how things had gone lately for the Flyers, it felt like a lifetime since they’d been relevant in March. Dayton was a mainstay in the tournament in the 1960s, finishing as the runner-up in 1967 with a loss to UCLA. The winning waned after 1990. Dayton went 10 years before its next tournament appearance and is making only its fifth NCAA trip in the last 14 years. Those Flyers fans who pack UD Arena for the First Four can keep cheering this time — which is exactly what they’ve been doing since the 11th-seeded Flyers (25-10) beat Ohio State 60-59 in Buffalo, followed by a 55-53 win over Syracuse. They’ll play 10th-seeded Stanford (23-12) in Memphis on Thursday. “We have to sort of come back down out of the clouds a little bit,” coach Archie Miller said. “There’s just so much hype, media and the talk around you.” As soon as the Flyers finished off Syracuse, the pundits started talking about Miller possibly moving on after his third season rebuilding the program. He had privately agreed to a contract extension midway through the season, but wanted to hold off saying anything about it until the Flyers were

16 points for Arizona State. Notre Dame led 32-26 at halftime before scoring the first six points of the second. Led by the 6-foot-3 Achonwa, the Irish outscored Arizona State 46-34 in the paint. Kayla McBride had 22 points and nine assists for Notre Dame. The Sun Devils committed two early shot clock violations and fell behind 8-2, but Arizona State was able to avoid an early blowout. A 3-pointer by Mann started an 8-0 run that gave the Sun Devils a 15-12 lead and forced Notre Dame to take a timeout. “We really tried to stick to our game plan and just play them aggressively,” said Arizona State’s Adrianne Thomas, who scored 14 points. “I feel like not a lot of other teams have really pressured them as much as we have.” Arizona State beat Vanderbilt in the first round despite foul

trouble and turnovers, and the Sun Devils put Notre Dame on the line a lot as well. They also committed 14 turnovers in the first half, but they forced 12 by the Irish to keep the game competitive. Notre Dame’s six-point lead at halftime equaled its largest of the game to that point. In the second half, Notre Dame shot 53 percent from the field to leave Arizona State behind. The Irish were whistled for seven fouls in the first 4:02 after halftime, putting the Sun Devils in the bonus early, but Arizona State still couldn’t keep up. “With a team that is so aggressive and pressuring so much, the backdoor is what we were looking for,” Achonwa said. “We worked on it in practice, and Kayla and the rest of the guards did a great job of finding me.” Jewell Loyd’s layup in transition made it 55-39, and when

McBride added a 3-pointer from the left wing, it was 73-48. In other words, another Notre Dame rout. Loyd finished with 19 points and seven rebounds. Achonwa shot 8 of 10 from the field and fell a point short of her career high, set Jan. 12 at Virginia. Both teams finished with 22 turnovers, but the Irish had 19 assists to Arizona State’s five. Notre Dame made 25 of 32 free throws. The deep, balanced Sun Devils had 11 players play at least six minutes but couldn’t wear down the Irish. “We just didn’t execute as well as we needed to, and then when we did, unfortunately we missed some shots,” Arizona State coach Charli Turner Thorne said. “Lots to build on in the offseason in terms of just little things that we didn’t do on both ends of the floor — because we want to be where Notre Dame is.”

S.F. Indian School softball team to play seven games in four days A season that started at a glacial pace is about to go fullthrottle into hyperdrive. On Monday afternoon, the Santa Fe Indian School softball team began a hectic week in which it will play seven games in four days in three different cities on four different campuses. The Lady Braves had played just two games all season before this brutal stretch. “We’re ready, but it’s going to be busy,” said Leroy Valencia, the SFIS head coach. “We’ve got some tough games in front of us. We’re going to learn a lot about this team in the next few days.” The Lady Braves got a complete game two-hit shutout from pitcher Chasity Sam in a 5-0 win at West Las Vegas on Monday. Sam gave up hits in the first and fifth innings, striking out 11 and walking just one batter. She retired the side in order in four of her seven innings. She helped her own cause, too, going 2-for-4 with a pair of runs scored and two RBI. Sierra Marmejo-Varga had two hits and Reyes Crispin had three RBI while going 2-for-2 with a pair of walks and a double. “Chasity is coming into her own,” Valencia said. “I just wish we’d be hitting the ball a little better. We only had one error today, but our hitting needs to improve.” The Lady Braves (2-1) will have plenty of chances to improve over the next few days. They face Pojoaque Valley in a doubleheader on Tuesday, get Santa Fe High in a single game Wednesday, take Thursday off, then play three games in two days at a tournament in Portales.

White fights for job, mental health

By Antonio Gonzalez

The Associated Press

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Royce White leaned back in a chair in the Sacramento Kings locker room, looked at the veteran players around him and joked about why he’d be the one getting an interview request. “I’m just a guy on a 10-day contract,” he said, chuckling. Hardly. The 16th overall pick of the 2012 draft best known for his contentious and public disagreement with the Houston Rockets over how to treat his anxiety disorder, which includes a fear of flying, is trying to make a new name for himself with the Sacramento Kings late this season. Not only must he prove he can still play, White has to show he can handle the rigors of the league’s schedule, including his first road trip this week. He’s on his second 10-day deal with the Kings this month, and he knows nothing beyond that is guaranteed. “Those thoughts do come where it’s like, ‘If this doesn’t work out, will I even go at it again?’ ” White said. The Rockets knew what they were getting when they selected White out of Iowa State two years ago. The 6-foot8, 260-pound forward freely acknowledged his condition in pre-draft interviews, most notably a plane phobia that triggers panic attacks — which can speed up his heart rate, send a tingling feeling to his extremities and lead to a cold sweat. White sat out the first week of training camp after asking for special protocols, including permission to travel by bus on road trips. He also wanted an independent physician to have the final say about when he could play. The dispute between Houston and White, who often took to Twitter to express his displeasure, could never be resolved. He was traded to Philadelphia in July, and the

76ers waived him before the start of the season. The 22-year-old forward’s stay in Sacramento, about as far removed from the national NBA landscape as one can get, has been far quieter than his previous stops. Sacramento first signed White to a 10-day contract March 6, and he immediately reported to the Reno Bighorns of the NBA Development League. He started four games for Reno, averaging 8.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 24.8 minutes before getting called up to the Kings last week. White has played in the final minute of the past two games — his first action ever in the NBA — after the outcomes had been decided.

“It feels a lot different,” White said. “In all fairness to Houston, they were in a much different position. A lot of things, they couldn’t make a ruling on themselves as much as the league. They had to wait on a lot of OKs and things from people. It was a real complex situation. But it feels very different. Everything’s different. The organization’s different. The city’s different. The people are different. My teammates are different.” Is he different? “I’m probably the least different out of the entire equation,” White said. “But I’m in a different place. I’m definitely feeling more comfortable with the ability to have a successful career in this league.” Whether White can carve

out a career remains unclear. Kings general manager Pete D’Alessandro said he doesn’t want to make too much out of White’s addition, that he’s just a player on his second 10-day contract and the team is giving him a chance. Kings coach Michael Malone echoed those sentiments, saying White’s signing “is about him as a basketball player.” White stressed that he’s thankful for the opportunity to play for an NBA team again but, just as importantly, to play for an NBA team that is willing to discuss and address his mental-health concerns. He also said he will be at every Kings game if he’s signed for the rest of the season, though travel details still need to be worked out. After hosting New York on Wednesday night, the Kings head out on a three-game road trip: at Oklahoma City on Friday, at Dallas on Saturday and at New Orleans on Monday. White said the Kings will decide whether he makes the trip, and he has no problems traveling across the country. He declined to discuss what steps he’d take before boarding an airplane, but he noted that he took a flight from his hometown in Minneapolis to Sacramento after the Kings signed him. How long his latest stint in the NBA lasts will not define him, White said, and it will not change his stance as an outspoken advocate for the mentally ill and their legal rights in the workplace. “My advocacy for mental health will be there regardless of whether I’m playing or not,” White said. “If it takes this platform to boost or activate what we need to do mentalhealth wise, then that’s not good enough, then somebody else isn’t doing their job. Those questions will be there, and I’m still willing to answer those questions. But right now it’s just about the Kings and playing.”

Closing time on the mound: from obscurity to supremacy and back By Ronald Blum

The Associated Press

Some relievers thrive when they move into the huge ninth-inning spotlight and some fizzle. And others turn into one-year wonders. They can be a Jimmy Fallon, earning raves, a Conan O’Brien deflecting razzes, or one of those single-season phenoms that’s increasingly common, a bullpen Halley’s Comet that gets all the attention one summer and disappears the next. After a half-decade as Mariano Rivera’s understudy in the New York Yankees’ bullpen, David Robertson feels ready for his move to the big time. “I’m hoping it’s more fun,” Robertson says. “You get to high-five with everybody at the end of the game instead of just running in the dugout and going, ‘OK, Mo’s coming in. I’m going to go get undressed and get ready to high-five him when he comes in the clubhouse.’ ” Top closers are baseball’s rock stars — tied to their entrance music and their oversized persona, whether of chaos or cool. It’s hard to think of Rivera without Metallica’s “Enter

Sandman” or Trevor Hoffman divested of AC/DC’s “Hells Bells.” But for every success there are multiple failures, especially these days when the managers and front-office executives feel intense pressure for their teams to produce right from the season’s start and every single night. Hence, the reliever who goes from obscurity to supremacy and back. “In the case of relievers, if you check the history it’s kind of a natural wave of things,” Baltimore Orioles pitching coach Dave Wallace says. “A lot of guys have a real good year, or maybe two good years, and then the maybe hit a bump in the road for a year or two. That’s what makes Trevor Hoffman, Mariano, those type of guys special because they’ve done it over a long period of time.” From 1969, when the save first became a statistic, until 2003 there was not a single occurrence of a pitcher who had exactly one 30-save season and no other, according to STATS. Shawn Chacon became the first. An All-Star starter for Colorado in 2003, he was converted to closer the following year and had 35 saves — but also

blew nine and became the first player in major league history with 30 saves and an ERA over 7.00. Restored to the rotation for 2005, he struggled and was dealt to the Yankees. Chacon started for most of the remainder of his career, which ended in 2008, and got just one more save. Toronto’s Miguel Batista (2005) was the next with a one-time-only 30-save season, followed by Texas’ Akinori Otsuka (2006) and Toronto’s Jeremy Accardo (2007). In the past three years, seven pitchers have reached 30 saves for the first time and it remains to be seen whether they will do it again: Sergio Santos (2011), Drew Storen (2011), Jordan Walden (2011), Tyler Clippard (2012), Jason Motte (2012), Jason Grilli (2013) and Edward Mujica (2013). “Some guys are built for it and some guys aren’t,” Miami Marlins manager Mike Redmond says. “If you can throw strikes and get guys out and save games you are going to have that job forever, but as soon as you don’t they find somebody else who does, right? It’s just the nature of the beast.” Koji Uehara had 13 saves for Balti-

more in 2011, then had one save in each of the following two seasons. After opening last season in a setup role for the Red Sox, he got the big job when Joel Hanrahan tore an elbow ligament and Andrew Bailey struggled and needed shoulder surgery. By October, the 34-year-old Uehara was dominant, striking out St. Louis’ Matt Carpenter to finish Boston’s first World Series clincher at home since Babe Ruth’s team back in 1918. Tampa Bay manager Joe Maddon likened Uehara to Fernando Rodney, who saved 37 games for Detroit in 2009, served mostly as a setup man during two seasons with the Los Angeles Angels, then emerged as a top closer for the Rays before signing with Seattle. Rodney succeeded when he commanded his changeup and Uehara excelled when he mastered his splitter. Rivera became baseball’s greatest closer because of his cutter, which shattered bats of hundreds of lefthanded hitters. “I have to believe the common thread is a great other pitch, which more than likely is going to be a changeup or a split,” Maddon says. “The way that

Rivera did it consistently for so many years, it seems it’s difficult today to get relief pitchers to be consistent for that many consecutive years.” Rodney’s changeup fell into place because of a change in his mechanics. “A pitcher always lifts his foot. So I stayed in my slide step and got the same velocity, everything the same,” he says. “I pitched really well in the Dominican Winter League and I came to spring training continuing to work. And I got a lot of positive results.” With Rivera’s retirement, 39-year-old Joe Nathan becomes the active saves leader with 341. He’s preparing for his first season with the Tigers, a “Guys and Dolls” pairing of Nathan-Detroit. Robertson, who turns 29 next month, has all of eight career saves to his credit. When Derek Jeter retires at the end of the season, Robertson will become the longest-tenured Yankees player if he remains with New York, by one day over outfielder Brett Gardner. Friends have texted him congratulations on taking over Rivera’s role. He keeps saying it’s no big deal, that he’s approaching the ninth in the same manner he pitches the eighth.

LOS ANGELES — A judge has sentenced 1970s teen heartthrob David Cassidy to three months in rehab and five years of probation in a drunken driving case. Cassidy’s attorney, Steven Graff Levine, entered an open plea to a Los Angeles judge Monday, admitting that he was driving under the influence when he was arrested in January after making an illegal turn. David Levine says Cassidy has been in rehab Cassidy and will remain for longer than his sentence requires. He says Cassidy is committed to his sobriety and wants to break the cycle that got him arrested for drunken driving twice in less than six months. A drunken-driving case in New York was reduced from a felony to misdemeanor earlier this month. Cassidy appeared on TV’s The Partridge Family.

NOTICE OF PROCEEDING NOTICE is hereby given of the following matters pertaining to the above-captioned case pending before the New Mexico Public Regulation Commission ("Commission" or "NMPRC"): On January 8, 2014, Tempo Telecom, LLC ("Tempo") filed with the Commission a Petition for Designation as an Eligible Telecommunications Carrier for Lifeline Services ("Petition"). The Petition was filed pursuant to Section 214(e)(2) of the federal Communications Act of 1934 as amended by the Telecommunications Act of 1996 ("Act"), 47 C.F.R. §§ 54.101-54.422 and Rule 17.11.10.24 of the New Mexico Administrative Code ("NMAC"). The Petition requests that the Commission approve the designation of Tempo as an E l i g i b l e Telecommunications Carrier ("ETC") for the limited purpose of providing Lifeline services to qualifying households, in both Tribal and non-Tribal areas of New Mexico. The Petition states that Tempo is seeking ETC designation throughout the Sprint C o r p o r a t i o n ("Sprint") coverage area in New Mexico, identified by maps and a list of exchanges attached to the Petition. The Petition states that Tempo is seeking ETC designation in all areas of New Mexico served by Sprint, including recognized Tribal Lands, but excluding the Mescalero Apache Reservation area. The Petition specifies that Tempo will not seek access to additional funds from either the federal Universal Service Fund ("USF") or from the New Mexico USF ("NMRUSF") for the purpose of either participating in the LinkUp program or providing services to high-cost areas. In short, Tempo is seeking approval of its request for ETC designation in its proposed ETC service area for the provision of discounted Lifeline service to qualified lowincome customers in New Mexico.

On January 22, 2014, the Commission issued an Order which, among other things, initiated this case to consider Tempo’s Petition and designated the undersigned to preside over this proceeding. Further information regarding this case can be obtained by contacting the Commission at the address and telephone number provided below. The Commission has assigned Case No. 14-00003-UT to this proceeding and all inquires or written comments concerning this matter should refer to that docket number. By Order issued in this case on March 14, 2014, the Hearing Examiner has established the following procedural schedule and requirements for this case: A.

B. On or before April 16, 2014, 2014, Tempo shall file direct testimony in support of the Petition. C. Any intervenor testimony shall be filed on or before May 19, 2014.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Excluded woman needs new friends

Dear Annie: I have played in a local poker league for 10 years and have built solid friendships with these people. Three years ago, a new crew joined our crowd. At first, they were friendly, but in the past two years, one of them began having home poker parties. I was completely caught off guard when I started noticing Facebook posts with all of our friends, and my husband and I were not on the invite list. I tried to be a good sport and would post comments to let them know I was glad they had a good time, but deep down, I was hurt that people I’d known for a decade didn’t seem to mind that we were not there. A few of them commented privately, saying they were not aware it was happening, but nothing changed. Last year, I was diagnosed with cancer and have undergone radiation. My “don’t care” quotient is at an all-time high, so when I noticed once again that we were not invited to a gathering, I commented that it was a slap in the face and amazingly rude to expect me to be courteous and friendly during our poker games when it’s obvious that she has no regard for my feelings at all. I later attempted to extend an olive branch to all of the members of our league (including Miss Rude) by inviting them to my husband’s birthday party, but not one of them showed up. Do I need a shrink, or should I just put all of our cards on the table and find out what I’ve done to make her deliberately alienate me? — Royal Flush Dear Royal: This sounds like high school with the mean girls and the bullies. There could be any number of reasons why Miss Rude has isolated you — she doesn’t like you, she wants to be in control, she believes you are competition. The real question is why your other friends go along with it. If you have a pal in your group,

ask for an honest assessment. But mostly, we think you need new friends. Dear Annie: My husband and I are childless, over 55 and in the process of downsizing to a smaller home. Our birthdays are coming up. We don’t want or need clothes, knickknacks or home furnishings. We donate such items to charity. While we appreciate their generosity, we have told our friends and relatives that a gift certificate (in any amount) to a restaurant is most welcome. It is a nice treat and an incentive to get out. But few of them choose this option. Last Christmas, we were inundated with clothes and tchotchkes for the home we are leaving. Would you please address this so our requests aren’t ignored? — Ft. Myers, Fla. Dear Florida: All gifts are just that, and no one is obligated to get you anything, let alone what you are requesting. The proper response is to say thank you and then give the items away. But we understand your frustration. If the same people keep doing this, it’s OK to ask them to stop, as you no longer need these items and will give them to charity. You can sincerely suggest that they make a direct donation to the charity instead. If they then ask what you’d actually like, you can tell them. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Unwilling Son,” who refused to take a family photo for his parents’ 40th anniversary because his mother asked him to wear a white sweatshirt and he doesn’t look good in white. Several years back, we had such a picture taken. I treasure the picture because the family is scattered all over the world. Tell the ungrateful snob to put on the sweatshirt and make his parents happy. It may be the last time they are together. — Grandparent in White
