Three former officials with the Southwestern Association for Indian Arts announced Sunday on Facebook that they are creating a new market that will be held the same weekend as the 93rd Santa Fe Indian Market in August. The Indigenous Fine Art Market will be headed by John
Torres Nez, the former chief operating officer of SWAIA, who resigned March 31, citing his “fiduciary duty.” While the group hasn’t agreed on a site for the market, officials say they have been eyeing the Santa Fe Indian School campus. Torres Nez and Jemez Pueblo Gov. Joshua Madalena made a presentation recently to the school’s board about using that property on Cerrillos Road, said
Plaza plan ‘is not ready,’ Public Works panel says
By Steve Terrell
Gonzales, who did not attend the committee meeting, issued a statement that said he would continue to strive to work with the community. “I’d like to thank the councilors and the public for sharing their opinions on the Plaza,” he said. “I am committed to working with the Council to find a compromise and consider ways to make the Plaza more safe and inviting for everyone.” In announcing his proposal earlier this month, Gonzales had couched it as part of a “People to the Plaza” initiative aimed at making the historic square more inviting. But the
Taxpayers spent more than $20,000 on out-ofstate travel for Gov. Susana Martinez, her staff and her state police security detail last summer, according to information released Monday by the state Department of Finance and Administration in response to a public records request. Nearly all the travel during the period between June and September was for political trips to states including Florida, Colorado, Texas, Wyoming, New York and Pennsylvania, records show. Martinez’s increasing out-ofSusana state travel last year reflected her Martinez status as a sought-after Republican star — not only because she is the country’s only female Hispanic governor, but because she is a Republican governor who was able to win in 2010 and maintain good poll numbers in a state that gave Barack Obama healthy margins in the past two presidential elections. And, as was the case with Democratic Gov. Bill Richardson before her, the number of fundraising events for Martinez’s re-election campaign reflects a candidate actively recruiting out-of-state contributors. The information provided Monday was in response to a public information request by The New Mexican in September 2013. In November, the Governor’s Office, in response to the request, provided a list of out-of-state trips Martinez made between early June and late September. The finance department, however, did not provide information on the travel costs until Monday. The finance department did not provide actual receipts or travel vouchers for the individual trips or the individual travelers. Instead, it released a list of total expenses by month for the governor and her staff, and a separate list of expense totals for the governor’s security detail. The administration contends

Reservation saw 42 slain last year — more than in Boston or Seattle FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — New FBI statistics show the vast Navajo Nation saw a sharp increase in the murder rate in 2013 and finished the year with 42 homicides, eclipsing major metropolitan areas with less space and far more people, like Seattle and Boston. About 180,000 people live on the reservation that spans 27,000 square miles in Arizona, New Mexico and Utah. It’s a place where culture and language thrive but where jobs are scarce, alcoholism is among the greatest social ills, and cycles of violence and lack of access to basic necessities can stifle people’s spirits. When those facMcDonald tors combine, “you’re Rominger always going to find higher crime rates,” said McDonald Rominger, head of the FBI’s northern Arizona office. “There’s a correlation.” The number of people killed on the Navajo Nation increased from 34 in 2012, representing a per-capita murder rate of 18.8 per 100,000 people — four times the national rate. The FBI has not yet released a national murder rate for 2013. Not a single day passed last year before the first incident of deadly violence was reported on the Arizona
Superintendent Roy Herrera. But Madalena said Monday that the plan would need the approval of New Mexico’s 19 pueblo governors.

MINYA, Egypt — The Muslim Brotherhood’s spiritual leader and more than 680 other people were sentenced to death Monday stemming from last year’s post-coup violence in the latest mass trial that was denounced in the West and by human rights groups as contrary to the rule of law. In a separate ruling Monday, a court banned the April 6 youth group — one of several that engineered the 2011 uprising against longtime leader Hosni Mubarak that set off nearly three years of unrest. It ordered the confiscation of the group’s offices.

The sentences for the 683 defendants were announced by Judge Said Youssef at a court session in the southern city of Minya that lasted only eight minutes. The verdicts are not final and are expected to be overturned. Under the law, once the defendants who were tried in absentia turn themselves in — which is all but 63 of the accused — their trials will start over. The mass trials were linked to riots in which supporters of ousted President Mohammed Morsi allegedly attacked police stations and churches in retaliation for security forces violently breaking up Cairo sit-ins by Islamists in August that left hundreds dead.

NATION&WORLD Fed easing into routine The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — The outcome of this week’s gathering of Federal Reserve officials in Washington is expected to be a yawner — and that’s a good thing. The central bank will likely vote to do the same thing it did at its last meeting … and the one before that and the one before that: reduce the amount of money it is pumping into the economy by an additional $10 billion. The Fed’s purchases of long-term bonds, known as quantitative easing, are widely expected to end in the fourth quarter. The steady phase-out has become so routine and predictable that QE has virtually vanished from the conversation on Wall Street. That’s remarkable considering the program clocks in at more than $1 trillion — and counting — and is arguably the most unconventional of the many unorthodox policies the central bank pursued in the wake of the financial crisis. This is the type of nonresponse for which the Fed has been aiming since it began hinting in spring 2013 that the days of QE were numbered. Fed officials have tried to preserve wiggle room by arguing that the wind down is not on autopilot. If the economy stops growing or the recovery takes off, they can slow down or speed up as needed. The central bank can be glad investors have turned their attention elsewhere and just let this plane land itself.

In brief
Education rising as 2016 GOP issue CHICAGO — Raising U.S. educational expectations through national goals was a priority for Republican President George W. Bush. But many of his would-be successors in the GOP are calling for just the opposite of government-set rules, and it’s splitting the party as the GOP class of 2016 presidential hopefuls takes shape. Just six years after Bush left office, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul last week referred to a set of statecreated standards, called Common Core, as a national “curriculum that originates out of Washington.” That kind of statement stokes outrage among grass-roots conser-

in Verona, south of Tupelo, said Lee County Coroner Carolyn Gillentine Green. In northern Alabama, the coroner’s office confirmed two deaths Monday in a twister that caused extensive damage west of the city of Athens, said Limestone County Emergency Director Rita White. White said more victims could be trapped in the wreckage of damaged buildings, but rescuers could not reach some areas because of downed power lines. Separately, Limestone Commissioner Bill Latimer said he received reports of four deaths in the county from one of his workers. Numerous watches and warnings still were active in Alabama shortly before midnight Monday, with forecasters warning the severe weather could continue all night. In Tupelo, Miss., a community of about 35,000 in northeastern Mississippi, every building in a twoblock area south of U.S. Highway 78 had suffered damage, officials told a reporter on the scene. Some buildings had their roofs sheared off, while power lines had been knocked down completely or bent at 45-degree angles. Road crews
were using heavy machinery to clear off other streets. The Northeast Mississippi Medical Center in Tupelo had received 30 patients as of Monday night, four of whom were being admitted with non-life-threatening injuries, said center spokeswoman Deborah Pugh. Pugh said the other 26 patients were treated for minor injuries and released. Mississippi Republican Sen. Giles Ward huddled in a bathroom with his wife, four other family members and their 19-year-old dog Monday as a tornado destroyed his twostory brick house in Louisville, seat of Winston County and home to about 6,600. He estimated that 30 houses in his neighborhood were either destroyed or heavily damaged. Altogether, 45 people had been injured in Louisville but no deaths had been reported, said Jack Mazurak, a spokesman for the Jackson-based University of Mississippi Medical Center, In Memphis, Tenn., officials declared a state of emergency in a county southwest of Nashville because of flash flooding.
vatives, who are still incensed with the Obama administration over the 2010 health care law. It also happens to be untrue: Forty-four states voluntarily participate in Common Core standards developed in part by Republican governors. And some other potential GOP presidential candidates support the standards and are objecting to the red-meat rhetoric designed to fire up the party’s most fervent supporters. “We cannot expect our children to compete with the best in the world when we have no standards or dumbed-down standards,” former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, the former president’s brother, said at an education conference in Arizona last week. In the meantime, education is rising as a GOP priority, if only as a proxy for a larger internal party debate over government’s proper scope.
N.Y.’s Grimm denies fraud charges NEW YORK — Republican U.S. Rep. Michael Grimm, a former Marine and FBI agent who’s been the target of a campaign finance probe, was charged on Monday with evading taxes by concealing more than $1 million in sales and wages while running a small Manhattan restaurant — a case he called a political witch hunt. Grimm surrendered to FBI agents early Monday following a two-year investigation that initially focused on alleged attempts to bypass contribution limits. He pleaded not guilty through his lawyer in federal court and was released on $400,000 bond secured by his Staten Island home. The lawmaker vowed to return to work in Congress while fighting the charges. The Associated Press

TUPELO, Miss. — Tornadoes flattened homes and businesses, flipped trucks over on highways and bent telephone poles into 45-degree angles as they barreled through the South on Monday, killing at least nine people and unleashing severe thunderstorms, damaging hail and flash floods. Tens of thousands of customers were without power in Alabama, Kentucky, and Mississippi, and thousands more hunkered down in basements and shelters as The National Weather Service issued watches and warnings for more tornadoes throughout the night in Alabama. Weather satellites from space showed tumultuous clouds arcing across much of the South. The system is the latest onslaught of severe weather a day after a half-mile-wide tornado carved an 80-mile path of destruction through the suburbs of Little Rock, Ark., killing at least 15. Tornadoes also killed one person each in Oklahoma and Iowa on Sunday. Emergency officials attending a late-night news conference with Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant said up to seven people have been reported killed. State Director of Health Protection Jim Craig said officials are working with coroners to confirm the total. One of those deaths involved a woman who was killed when her car either hydroplaned or was blown off a road during the storm

WASHINGTON — Former state employee Edward Lane’s courtroom testimony in 2008 and 2009 was key to exposing “one of the most egregious public corruption situations in Alabama’s history,” state Attorney General Luther Strange told the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday. “It led to a total rewrite of our public corruption laws and our ethics laws,” he said. And for his trouble, Lane alleges, he was fired. In a case important to millions of public employees, the justices considered whether the First Amendment protects Lane from retaliation when he testifies in court about the misconduct he has observed. What seems like it might be an easy question is complicated, though, when government acts as employer. In previous rulings, the court has said that public employees have freespeech rights when they are acting as citizens, not when they are testifying to what they learned in their jobs or are required to speak about because of their specific duties. The justices clearly seemed sympathetic to Lane. Justice Sonia Sotomayor said governments certainly have the ability to restrict employees from talking about subjects in certain forums or disclosing things in an improper way. And Chief Justice John Roberts tried to solicit from Mark Waggoner of Birmingham, representing the community college president who let Lane go, whether Lane could have kept his job by lying. Lane is a former employee of Central Alabama Community College, and in 2006 he became director of a program called Community Intensive Training for Youth. He discovered that a state legislator, Suzanne Schmitz, had arranged a no-show job for herself with the program. Lane fired her for nonperformance. After she was terminated, the FBI began investigating and Lane was subpoenaed to testify, first before a grand jury and subsequently at two criminal trials. The first ended in a mistrial, but Schmitz was convicted in the second. In between the trials, Steve Franks, then the community college’s president, said cuts in the program’s budget required layoffs, and he fired 29 probationary employees with less than three years’ service. Franks said he then discovered many of the employees were not probationary and hired them back. Lane was one of only two not rehired, and he filed suit. And 11th Circuit opinions at the time of Lane’s firing, they said, did not make clear that public employees could make First Amendment challenges. The case is Lane v. Franks.

Russia hit with new sanctions U.S. isn’t certain measures will change ‘calculus’ By Lynn Berry and Matthew Lee The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The United States and its European allies hit more than two dozen Russian government officials, executives and companies with new sanctions Monday as punishment for their country’s actions in Ukraine, yet the penalties stopped short of targeting Russia’s broader economy and it remained unclear if they would work. In Moscow, there was relief that the sanctions were not as far-ranging as feared. The measures, including asset freezes and visa bans, affect people close to the Kremlin, and Western leaders hope those hurt by the sanctions will pressure Russian President Vladimir Putin to limit his reach in Ukraine and de-escalate the crisis there. However, the Russian leader himself was not among those targeted, and Obama
administration officials acknowledged there was no expectation that Putin would quickly change course. Still, officials in Washington and Brussels said the sanctions, coupled with an initial set imposed following Russia’s annexation of the Crimean peninsula last month, would significantly boost the cost to Moscow of ignoring an agreement it signed earlier this month to take concrete steps to ease tensions in Ukraine. “The goal here is not to go after Mr. Putin personally,” President Barack Obama told reporters in the Philippines, where he was wrapping up a four-nation trip to Asia. “The goal is to change his calculus with respect to how the current actions that he’s engaging in could have an adverse impact on the Russian economy over the long haul. We don’t yet know whether it’s going to work.” In addition to the sanctions on the seven individuals and 17 companies, there also are new arms and technology export restrictions on Russia. Meanwhile, in Brussels, the European
Union announced it had added 15 more officials to its Russia sanctions list, bringing to 48 the number of people singled out for “undermining Ukraine’s territorial integrity, sovereignty and independence.” They will be banned from traveling to the 28-nation bloc, and their assets will be frozen, the EU said in a statement. The names of the individuals targeted weren’t immediately released. The EU is Russia’s biggest trading partner, giving the Europeans greater economic leverage over Moscow than the U.S. has. However, the EU treads more carefully in imposing sanctions since Russia is also one of its biggest oil and gas suppliers — and the bloc apparently shied away from following Washington’s lead in targeting specific Russian companies. In Moscow, the new sanctions were seen as milder than many had feared, largely because they did not affect any public companies or major sectors of the economy. On Capitol Hill, lawmakers from both parties called on the administration to do more.
Ukraine mayor shot as tensions rise Defense chief says Russia won’t invade By Maria Danilova The Associated Press
KIEV, Ukraine — The mayor of Ukraine’s second-largest city was shot in the back Monday and hundreds of men attacked a peaceful pro-Ukraine rally with batons, bricks and stun grenades, wounding dozens as tensions soared in Ukraine’s volatile east. One presidential candidate said the mayor was deliberately targeted in an effort to destabilize the entire city of Kharkiv, a hub of 1.5 million people. Russia’s defense chief meanwhile assured U.S. Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel in a telephone call that Russia would not invade Ukraine, the Pentagon said. Armed insurgents tacitly backed by Moscow are seeking more autonomy in eastern Ukraine — and possibly even independence or annexation with Russia. Ukraine’s acting government and the West have accused Russia of orchestrating the unrest, which they fear Moscow could use as a pretext for an invasion. In the eastern city of Donetsk,
Kharkiv Mayor Hennady Kernes was shot Monday. After surgery, he remains in ‘grave but stable’ condition. ASSOCIATED PRESS FILE PHOTO
about 1,000 demonstrators carrying Ukrainian flags marched through the streets to hold a pro-Ukrainian rally Monday night. They were attacked by several hundred armed men shouting “Russia!” Police attempted to hold the pro-Russia men back but then stood aside as dozens of protesters were battered. Hennady Kernes, the mayor of Kharkiv, was shot in the back Monday morning while cycling on the outskirts of the city, his office said.

have angered both sides. Kharkiv is in eastern Ukraine, where pro-Russia gunmen have seized government buildings and police stations and set up roadblocks to demand greater autonomy or even annexation by Russia. But unlike the neighboring Donetsk region, Kharkiv had been largely unaffected by the insurgency. The Russian Foreign Ministry said the attack on Kernes, along with other events, “indicates that it isn’t possible to speak of any ‘peaceful’ pre-election campaign in Ukraine.” Elsewhere in the east, proRussia militants wearing masks gained another foothold, seizing a city hall building and police station in the city of Kostyantynivka, 100 miles from the Russian border. After the seizure, about 15 armed men guarded the city hall building. Moscow has repeatedly pushed for a referendum on federal autonomy in Ukraine, but Kiev and its Western allies have refused. However, Justice Minister Petro Petrenko said the parliament in Kiev will hold a debate Tuesday on the idea of a referendum, Interfax news agency reported.

9 months Violence kills nearly 50 in Iraq ahead of key vote of peace Polling centers targeted in as security forces talks end attacks cast ballots before election in disarray By Jodi Rudoren and Isabel Kershner The New York Times
JERUSALEM — There were late-night video conferences with Secretary of State John Kerry, including one from beneath mosquito netting in an Indonesian hotel. Kerry met a total of 34 times with President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority, and about twice that with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel. Israeli and Palestinian representatives were summoned for talks in Amman, Jordan; Davos, Switzerland; London; Munich; Paris; Rome; and Washington. And Kerry’s peace envoy, Martin S. Indyk, trekked with a Palestinian leader to ancient ruins in Jericho. In the past few weeks, even as both sides took steps that undermined the process, Kerry and his team produced a new package of incentives, including Palestinian autonomy for planning and zoning in Israelicontrolled parts of the West Bank. All sides left a meeting last Tuesday optimistic. The talks nonetheless collapsed two days later. Kerry has his share of the blame, at times leaving Israeli and Palestinian leaders with disparate understandings that would lead to later blowups and, toward the end, pushing beyond the White House’s comfort zone to create a new layer of internal negotiations that slowed events down. But Netanyahu refused to risk alienating Israel’s right wing by restraining construction in West Bank and East Jerusalem settlements; about 13,000 new units moved forward during the talks. Abbas, looking for a dignified exit from the public stage and furious over the settlement building, never responded to the ideas Kerry’s team had formulated for a framework to guide further negotiations. Ultimately, the latest round proved the perennial truth with Middle East peacemaking: Washington cannot force an agreement if the parties are unwilling. “It’s part of the pathology of the Israeli-Palestinian relationship that what one side demands the other side has a predisposition to reject,” said a U.S. official knowledgeable about the negotiations, speaking on the condition of anonymity under White House dictate. “It’s one of the reasons that it’s so difficult to sustain negotiations, never mind get an agreement.” Kerry set the lofty goal last July “to achieve a final-status agreement over the course of the next nine months.” Instead, as that deadline passes Tuesday, Israeli and Palestinian leaders are preparing a battery of punitive measures and unilateral steps that could spiral into the dissolution of the Palestinian Authority, bringing one of the world’s most intractable conflicts to a new low. After the pact signed last week by the PLO and the militant Islamic faction Hamas led Israel to halt the talks, President Barack Obama said Friday it may be time for a pause in American intervention. “I’ve been going through some soul-searching: Why, if we both say two-state solution, what’s gone wrong?” Saeb Erekat, the chief Palestinian negotiator, asked in an interview Monday. “My only answer is we have failed to sit and agree on a map on borders of the two states. Everything else will be a domino effect.” Erekat’s Israeli counterpart, Tzipi Livni, acknowledged that continued settlement construction was a problem but said the Palestinians knew it was coming. Twice in April, she pointed out, even as details of new deals were being completed, the Palestinians surprised Israel and Washington, first by joining 15 international conventions to protest Israel’s failure to release a promised fourth batch of prisoners, and last week by reconciling with Hamas. “When you make an agreement with somebody, if he says to you, ‘Listen, I’m going to pay, but it’s going to take some time,’” Livni said, “if you want the deal and if you really want to continue negotiations, you wait.”

BAGHDAD — Militants on Monday targeted polling stations across much of Iraq and a crowd of Kurds jubilantly dancing on the street as soldiers and security forces cast ballots two days ahead of parliamentary elections, officials said. The attacks, including a suicide bombing northeast of Baghdad, left at least 46 people dead. The wave of attacks was an apparent attempt to derail the balloting process and discourage the rest of the country’s 22 million registered voters from going to the polls on Wednesday in the first nationwide elections since the 2011 withdrawal of U.S. forces. The early balloting for police and
soldiers is meant to free up the 1 millionstrong military and security forces so they can protect polling stations and voters on election day. More than 9,000 candidates are vying for 328 seats in parliament, which is widely expected to be won by an alliance led by Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, who is likely to seek a third four-year term in office. The day’s worst attack took place in the Kurdish town of Khanaqin, 87 miles northeast of Baghdad close to the Iranian border. A suicide bomber walked toward a crowd of Kurds performing a traditional dance and blew himself up, killing at least 25 and injuring 35, many of them in critical condition. The Kurds were celebrating the appearance on TV of Iraq’s ailing President Jalal Talabani, a Kurd who is being treated in Berlin since December 2012 following a stroke. The nearly 80-yearold Talabani was seen sitting in a wheelchair smiling and waving his index finger, stained purple, flanked by clapping relatives. Few details have been released
about the severity of Talabani’s illness. No one claimed responsibility for the attack, which bore the hallmarks of Sunni Arab militants. Khanaqin is in Diyala province, a region where Arabs and Kurds context territory and where Sunni militants target Shiites and Kurds. Iraq is experiencing a surge in sectarian violence, with Sunni militants increasingly chiefly targeting security forces, army troops and members of the nation’s Shiite majority. The resurgence of the bloodletting, which nearly tore Iraq apart in 2006 and 2007, underscores the precarious politics of a democratic, but splintered nation. It also mirrors the 3-year-old conflict in neighboring Syria, where the civil war pits forces loyal to President Bashar Assad whose powerbase stems from followers of a Shiite offshoot sect, against mostly Sunni Arab rebels whose ranks are dominated by Islamists and militants from al-Qaida-inspired or linked groups. Iraqi Shiite militiamen fight on the side of
Assad’s forces. Voters in Wednesday’s polls are widely expected to cast ballots along sectarian and ethnic lines. But balloting will not take place in parts of the vast and mostly Sunni Anbar province west of Baghdad, where al-Qaida spin-off militants control parts of two cities, including the provincial capital, Ramadi. Beside army troops and police, also voting on Monday were hospital patients, medical staff and detainees. Abroad, Iraqi expatriates in more than 20 countries will also be able to cast ballots for a second day. Authorities, meanwhile, announced the closure of Iraq’s air space, saying it will not reopen until after the polls close on Wednesday evening. Already, the government has decreed a weeklong national holiday to coincide with the elections, extending a previously announced three-day break. Such moves were common in past elections, chiefly to empty the streets and allow security forces faster access to attack sites.

Economists worry about China’s lending bubble By Christopher S. Rugaber The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Just as the global economy has all but recovered from debtfueled crises in the United States and Europe, economists have a new worry: China. They see a lending bubble there that threatens global growth unless Beijing defuses it. That’s the view that emerges from an Associated Press survey this month of 30 economists. Still, the economists remain optimistic that Beijing’s highstakes drive to reform its economy — the world’s second-largest — will bolster Chinese banks, ease the lending bubble and benefit U.S. exporters in the long run. “They’ve really got to change the way they do business,” said William Cheney, chief economist at John Hancock Asset Management. “But they have a good track record of doing just that. I’m an optimist about their ability to make this transition.” The source of concern is a surge in lending by Chinese banks. The lending was initially encouraged by the govern-
ment during the 2008 global financial crisis to fuel growth. Big state-owned banks financed construction of homes, railroads and office towers. But much of the lending was directed by local officials for pet projects rather than to meet business needs. On Monday, the International Monetary Fund issued a warning about China’s private debt. It released a report citing “rising vulnerabilities” in China’s financial system, including lending outside traditional banks. Lending by that “shadow” banking system now equals one-quarter of China’s economy, the report said. The IMF also pointed to recent defaults in credit card and other debt sold to investors by banks and heavy debts owed by local governments. If it continues, “this could spark adverse financial market reaction both in China and globally,” the IMF said. The bubble has caused land prices in China to double in five years, according to an estimate by Nomura, a Japanese bank. Outstanding credit surged from 130 percent of the economy in 2008 to
200 percent in 2013, according to Capital Economics, a forecasting firm. When debt has built up that fast in the past — as in the United States during the housing bubble — financial crises have typically followed. “That should be setting alarm bells off,” said Mark Williams, chief Asia economist at Capital Economics. When debt finances excessive building, eventually too few people or companies are willing to buy all the houses, apartments and offices. That can send prices sinking and trigger loan defaults by developers and property owners. Banks typically then curtail lending, slowing growth. Most economists think China’s government would bail out its state owned banks and provide enough money so they could continue lending. It would also support any companies whose bankruptcy would threaten growth. “I don’t think anybody important is going to be allowed to go broke,” Cheney said. China’s government has adopted a reform program intended to strengthen
its financial sector and transform its economy with more consumer spending and less dependence on construction and investment. The IMF said those efforts could make growth more sustainable and boost consumption. But it said progress “remains incomplete.” Premier Li Keqiang, China’s top economic official, promised in March to give market forces a “decisive role” in allocating loans. Days later, the government let a corporate bond default for the first time, rather than bailing out the investors, to encourage more market discipline. Also that month, China cleared the way for the first five privately owned banks. The government hopes they will lend more to entrepreneurs and private businesses and provide competition for the state-owned giants. The measures are having some effect. New lending slowed in March. And the expansion of China’s money supply rose at its slowest rate since 1997. Home sales in the first quarter declined 5.7 percent from a year earlier.

MANILA, Philippines — President Barack Obama vigorously defended his foreign policy record Monday, arguing that his cautious approach to global problems has avoided the type of missteps that contributed to a “disastrous” decade of war for the United States. Obama’s expansive comments came at the end of a weeklong Asia trip that exposed growing White House frustration with critics who cast the president as weak and ineffectual on the world stage. The president and his advisers get particularly irked by those who seize on Obama’s decision to pull back from a military strike in Syria and link it with virtually every other foreign policy challenge, from Russia’s threatening moves in Ukraine to China’s increasing assertiveness in Asia’s territorial disputes. “Why is it that everybody is so eager to use military force after we’ve just gone through a decade of war at enormous costs to our troops and to our budget?” Obama said during a news conference in the Philippines. Summing up his foreign policy philosophy, Obama said it was one that “avoids errors.” White House advisers argue in part that Obama’s approach puts him on the side of a conflictweary American public, some of whom voted for him in the 2008 election because of his early opposition to the Iraq war. Yet the president’s foreign policy record of late has provided plenty of fodder for his critics. It was Obama’s own declaration that Syria’s chemical weapons use would cross his “red line” that raised the stakes for a U.S. response when Syrian leader Bashar Assad launched an attack last summer. The Obama administration’s own drumbeat toward a U.S. strike only fueled the narrative that the president was indecisive or didn’t have the stomach for an attack when he abruptly pulled back, first in favor of a vote in Congress, then to strike a deal with Syria and Russia that aimed to rid the Assad regime of its chemical weapons stockpiles. The Syria scenario has trickled into Obama’s relationship with Asia, where anxious allies spent much of the last week seeking assurances Obama would have their back if China used military force to take the advantage in the region’s territorial disputes. And Russian President Vladimir Putin’s flouting of Western sanctions in response to his alleged provocations in Ukraine has stirred fresh criticism that the president’s strategy lacks teeth. “Do people actually think that somehow us sending some additional arms into Ukraine could potentially deter the Russian army?” Obama said. “Or are we more likely to deter them by applying the sort of international pressure, diplomatic pressure and economic pressure that we’re applying?” While Obama did not call out any of his critics by name, the White House has been frustrated with two sets of foreign policy critics: Republicans like Sen. John McCain of Arizona, who takes a more hawkish position than Obama on nearly every issue, and foreign policy commentators who push the president to take a more aggressive approach. “Frankly, most of the foreign policy commentators that have questioned our policies would go headlong into a bunch of military adventures that the American people had no interest in participating in and would not advance our core security interests,” Obama said.

Plaza: Full council to weigh idea May 14 Continued from Page A-1 idea surprised some residents who complained the newly elected mayor hadn’t publicly discussed the proposal. Earlier experiments with blocking streets adjoining the Plaza park have ended with all but the Palace Avenue side of the Plaza being reopened to traffic. The idea of again barricading other streets has drawn mixed responses. Some downtown merchants have expressed fear that business would shrivel. Some local residents have said blocking traffic makes the Plaza seem more tourist-oriented rather than a place also easily accessed and visited by locals. But others have praised the measure as a way to make it safer and easier for pedestrians to walk through the Plaza. Those sentiments were again on display during Monday’s public hearing at City Hall, where seats in the City Council Chamber were mostly filled. Gloria Mendoza, a self-proclaimed community activist, said she has twice opposed closing the Plaza to motorized traffic and continues to do so. She said bikers and walkers already have plenty of trails to use around town, and that the Plaza should belong to locals. “We don’t have any business closing the Plaza,” she said. “There’s nothing wrong with driving. You know I want you to let us feel that we own part of the city here downtown.”
Clarice Coffey, who gives tours in an open-sided vehicle, said closing the Plaza would “cripple the tram tours.” Coffey said older tourists, above 56, are typical of visitors to the city and that they often have mobility issues. “They wouldn’t be able to get the Plaza otherwise,” she said. However, Vince Kadlubek, an artist who is part of local collective Meow Wolf, said he conducted a straw poll via Facebook and found that 56 of his peers, with ages from 18-40, were in favor of closing the Plaza to motorists. Only three, he said, were against closing the Plaza. “It’s a lopsided issue when you talk to anyone under the age of 40,” he said. “I am a local, too. They’re locals also. Our generation is seeing a pull to nonvehicle usage. It’s a symbolic step for us to take.” Leigh Murphy, co-owner of Kernels’ Kettle Corn stand on the Plaza, said the mayor’s proposal ought to be given a chance to succeed or fail. She said she believes the measure would hurt her business, but there may be a lot to gain on a community level. Murphy also said she sees a lot of animosity between motorists and pedestrians, and that banning vehicles might calm the area. “We don’t know what it would be like,” Murphy said. She did say she was sympathetic to tour operators and that some aspects of the plan need to be “fleshed out” better.
Others called for a compromise, such as leaving the Plaza open during the day, and closing it to traffic during summer evenings or special events such as the free Santa Fe Bandstand musical performances. City officials do close the Plaza during special events such as the Spanish Market, the Indian Market and the Pancakes on Plaza event on July 4. The resolution has been scheduled for consideration by the full City Council at its May 14 meeting, which would allow a traffic ban to take effect May 24, the Saturday before Memorial Day. However, Monday’s committee discussion left some doubt about how the debate will play out. City officials in early 1984 did close two streets next to the Plaza, but they were reopened a few months later. In 1990, the city used flower boxes to block streets during the tourist season, but people complained that the boxes weren’t aesthetically pleasing. So the city tried concrete planters to limit traffic. The barriers were later removed. And in 2002, a couple of accidents involving pedestrians and vehicles on streets near the Plaza eventually led a city committee to recommend the current year-round closing of Palace Avenue in front of the Palace of the Governors while keeping the other streets available to motorized traffic.

Trips: More travel reflects status in GOP Continued from Page A-1 that releasing the actual records could jeopardize the security of the governor and her staff. For taxpayers, the governor’s security is by far the most expensive part of her out-of-state travel. According to the records released Monday, the transportation, meals and hotel expenses of the Martinez’s security detail totaled more than $18,281, while the portion for the governor and her staff was only $2,074. Typically, either Martinez’s campaign or the political organizations that invite her to speak at events pay for her trips, while the state pays for transportation, rooms and meals for the governor’s security detail and staff who accompany her. An earlier public records request by The New Mexican revealed the state spent $27,169 for Martinez’s out-of-state travel between the end of the 2013 legis-
lative session in March and early June of that year. The newspaper is still awaiting records for her travel expenses between late September and the end of the year. The information released Monday showed Martinez’s travel last summer included: u July 12-15: an appearance in Miami at the annual conference for Maverick PAC, a political action committee cochaired by Jeb Bush Jr., son of the former Florida governor and nephew of former President George W. Bush. u July 23-26: Republican Governors Association meetings in Aspen, Colo. u Aug. 23-25: a campaign fundraiser in Jackson Hole, Wyo. u Sept. 8-12: a series of campaign fundraisers in Philadelphia, New York City and Midland, Texas One of Martinez’s political trips — an annual dinner of the Ohio state Republican Party in Columbus, Ohio, where
Martinez was the keynote speaker in late June — was not included in this list of expenses. Finance department spokesman Tim Korte said, “The Ohio GOP picked up all expenses for that trip, including security.” There were two out-of-state trips that were not related to partisan politics. One was the July 9 memorial service for 19 firefighters who lost their lives fighting a wildfire northwest of Phoenix. Only days before they died, the team of Hotshots had been in New Mexico battling a fire in the Jemez Mountains. The other was the U.S. Manufacturing Summit in Orlando, Fla., from Aug. 22 to Aug. 23. Martinez was part of a state delegation that included her chief of staff, Keith Gardner, and Economic Development Secretary Jon Barela. Contact Steve Terrell at sterrell@ sfnewmexican.com.
Egypt: Action draws international outcry Continued from Page A-1 defendants in Monday’s trial are part of a group of nearly 1,000 who were implicated in the deaths of three policemen and a civilian, as well as others who were injured. Youssef said he was referring the death sentences — which followed convictions for the violence — to the Grand Mufti, Egypt’s top Islamic official. The move is a legal requirement that is usually considered a formality, but it also allows the judge to change his mind. Youssef also reduced the sentences against 529 defendants from a mass trial at which he presided in March. He upheld the death penalty for only 37 of them — a high number under Egyptian law — and commuted the rest to life imprisonment. The death sentences are being appealed by the prosecutor general. By contrast, after the trial in the wake of the 1981 assassination of President Anwar Sadat, only five people were executed. Monday’s court action drew international outcry.
Amnesty International said it feared the judiciary is “becoming just another part of the authorities’ repressive machinery, issuing sentences of death and life imprisonment on an industrial scale.” Washington called for the rulings to be reversed. “The United States is deeply concerned by today’s Egyptian court actions related to another mass trial and preliminary death sentences as well as the banning of the April 6 youth movement activities,” said State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki. “These court decisions run counter to the most basic democratic principles and foster the instability, extremism, and radicalization that Egypt’s interim government says it seeks to resolve,” she said. German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said the verdicts “make a mockery of the rule of law.” U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon warned that the verdicts are likely to “undermine prospects for long-term stability,” according to U.N. spokesman Stephane Dujarric. Sarah Leah Whitson of Human Rights
Watch said “the fact that the death sentences can be appealed provides little solace to hundreds of families that will go to sleep tonight facing the very real prospect that their loves ones could be executed without having an opportunity to present a case in court.” Egypt’s military-backed government has cracked down on Morsi supporters under the banner of a “war against terrorism” while tightening its grip on the Arab world’s most populous nation. Morsi was removed from power in July by the military after millions demanded he step down. Afterward, his supporters held near daily demonstrations that frequently descended into violence during which hundreds were killed and 16,000 detained. In retaliation, Islamic militant carried out suicide bombing and attacked police and military. The crackdown has ensnared secularminded activists who opposed the interim government. In recent months, many of those who opposed Mubarak were imprisoned for defying a new law that prohibits political gatherings without prior police permits.
Market: SWAIA says it is ‘moving ahead’ MArkET dATEs
Continued from Page A-1 Friday, will be director of program operations for the new market. All three announced their resignations on Facebook in the last month. Hundreds of people have signed an online petition at change.org supporting a new market led by Torres Nez. Agoyo said the leaders of the new market aren’t trying to create friction between artists who take part in the separate markets. “It was organic,” Agoyo said. “We had a few meetings and, slowly, it started to evolve, and it turned into something amazing.” She added that the Indigenous Fine Art Market’s new website will go live Friday. Artists will find instructions there for applying to the new market. The venue will be announced next week, she said. SWAIA board members said Monday they support additional markets for Indian art, just not on the same weekend as the Indian Market, which annually draws large crowds downtown. “As far as the board is concerned, if it’s good for native artists, we’re fine with it,” said Stockton Colt, SWAIA board president. But it may not be a “smart move,” he said, to hold two markets on the same weekend. “It divides buyers of Native art and is not necessarily Stockton Colt to the advantage of Native artists — and that’s who we serve.” There are already other shows in Santa Fe on Indian Market weekend that “draw money out of collectors’ pockets,” he said, “and that worries us.” But Colt said Monday that SWAIA is “moving ahead” and has hired John Paul Rangel, who is Apache and Navajo, as its public relations/marketing director. Rangel held that position in 200809. Since 2000, he has been the owner and creative director of his own design and marketing business and on the adjunct faculty at the Institute of American Indian Arts since 2003. He is one of several new hires to be announced in the next couple of weeks. Chief Development Officer Charlene Porsild is stepping up to handle more duties. She was hired a year ago, on Torres Nez’s recommendation, to share management of the organization. But they apparently hadn’t been seeing eye-to-eye lately. “At the staff level, there was discussion between our two executives,” said board member Roger Fragua. “At one point in time, neither one was satisfied with their work environment and both were looking for jobs.” Porsild had applied to become executive director of the Historic Museum at Fort Missoula in Montana, but Fragua said she has since withdrawn her application and is committed to staying with SWAIA. The resignations and the announcement about the new competition come just four months before Indian Market, the largest art market of its kind, which draws 175,000 people to the Plaza area for what has become the city’s busiest tourism weekend. On Sunday, Indigenous Fine Art Market posted on its Facebook page a photo of the three former SWAIA officials along with at least 16 Native American artists.

“Your outpouring of support has been absolutely incredible,” the message said. “We are so grateful. Thank you so much! As you can imagine, we’re trying to catch our breath! We’ll answer all of your emails, texts, and phone calls soon + we’ll keep you updated as we progress. Thanks again.” Some artists, who initially demanded Torres Nez be reinstated as co-leader of SWAIA, have come out supporting the new group “like a breath of fresh air” for Native American artists. Monty Claw, who has been participating at Santa Fe Indian Market since 2001, said he will not go to SWAIA’s market because he believes Torres Nez is better suited to run an Indian Market. “I’m not upset at SWAIA,” said Claw, a jeweler based in Gallup. “It’s just time for a different venue that has more of a Native voice.” But board members say they have received “phenomenal” support from other artists since Torres Nez left, in part over a disagreement about pay and benefit cuts at SWAIA. “When you read Facebook, you get a negative view of what’s going on,” Colt said. “The reality is we’ve lost none of our major partners. People are asking what they can do for us and we’re providing the answers.” Many artists he added, “Are banding together and coming to us and saying, ‘We want to help you.’ ” Fragua emphasized the mission of SWAIA is to support Indian art, and “anyone supporting Indian art is a friend, not a foe.” There is a finite number of buyers and the economy is still challenging, he said. The buyer who comes to Indian Market from out of state might also stop in Albuquerque’s Old Town as well as check out Santa Fe galleries and other attractions, Fragua said, but “there are only so many hours and so much money in their pockets.” Fragua said he’s seen what happens when there are too many tribal casinos in the same area. They all compete for the same customers and the market gets saturated. “When you go to Indian Market now, each potter is [already] competing with lots of others potters,” he said. “The same is true for weavers and jewelers. If you create another show at the same time, it makes it that much more competitive for the artists.” The biggest mistake he ever made as Jemez tribal administrator, Fragua said, was to hold an art market at the Albuquerque Hilton hotel in Albuquerque during Balloon Fiesta, hoping to benefit from the big influx of tourists. Nobody came. Looking ahead, Fragua said the board is anticipating a “wonderful market because of all the press.” Artists booth fees are coming in, and many are telling SWAIA, “We’re going to be there in a big way,” he said. Even seasoned artists are volunteering to answer phone calls and process paperwork, he said, and “that speaks volumes.” Contact Anne Constable at 986-3022 or aconstable@ sfnewmexican.com.

Navajo: Homicides on reservation usually don’t involve gun violence Continued from Page A-1 portion of the reservation, a murdersuicide in Sanders along Interstate 40. Three more people were killed on the Arizona portion that January, according to court documents. A man was stabbed at home in Dilkon after he made an inflammatory comment about a gay couple, according to court records. Another man shot his nephew with a rifle in a Red Valley neighborhood after an argument while they were drinking. A 4-year-old girl died from brain injuries she suffered when her caretaker repeatedly hit her over the head while wearing a boxing glove. When someone is killed on the reservation, FBI agents work the case with Navajo police and criminal investigators. The FBI has jurisdiction over a limited set of major crimes on reservations when the suspect, victim
or both are American Indian. Taking a case to federal court doesn’t preclude the tribe from also prosecuting, but the penalties under tribal law for homicides are far less stringent, with a maximum sentence of one year in jail and a $5,000 fine even for the most brutal crimes. The FBI typically opens between 75 and 100 death investigations on the Navajo Nation each year, Rominger said. They are further classified as resulting from an accident, natural causes, a crime and self-defense, for example. The crimes are among the roughly 250,000 calls that 280 Navajo police officers respond to each year, Navajo President Ben Shelly said recently. Shelly said the ratio of officers per 10,000 people is far less than half that of similar non-reservation rural areas in the U.S. Greg Jon Secatero, acting criminal
investigations supervisor in Tuba City on the Navajo Nation, said that leaves authorities with little time to focus on preventing crimes. More education and resources for people with drug and alcohol problems, or who have a tendency to abuse their family members, might result in fewer people being killed on the reservation, he said. On the other hand, victims sometimes are in denial or put more emphasis on keeping around the breadwinner or caretaker than protecting themselves, he said. “We have a problem,” he said. “We need to not look the other direction.” Navajo Nation homicides far exceed those on other tribal lands around the country. The neighboring Rosebud Sioux and Pine Ridge Indian reservations in South Dakota, with a combined population of about 32,000, each had at least three criminal homicides each in 2012, according to FBI documents pro-
vided to The Associated Press through a Freedom of Information Act request. However, parts of the document were redacted, leaving an incomplete picture of the actual number of homicides. More often than not, homicides on the Navajo Nation are not a result of gun violence. In one case, a man told authorities he beat his girlfriend to death with an electric cable and his fist after she told him she cheated on him. He then buried her in a shallow grave in Red Valley in March 2013. The man pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and is serving a 20-year prison sentence. Other killings involved a broken beer bottle and an ax as weapons. In 2013, the number of homicides on the reservation about the size of West Virginia topped Boston’s 40 and Seattle’s 32, both cities with more than 600,000 residents. Cities with populations similar to that of the Navajo
Nation logged far fewer homicides in 2012. According to the FBI’s data reporting site, Tempe had 11; Amarillo, Texas, had 10; Tallahassee, Fla., had 12; Columbus, Ga., had 17; and Oceanside, Calif., had eight. Rominger said authorities typically identify a suspect in reservation homicide cases and find the victim’s body within 48 hours. Common factors in a majority of crimes stemming from the reservation are alcohol and domestic violence. Most defendants enter into plea agreements with federal prosecutors, avoiding trials that take place far off the reservation in major cities like Phoenix, Salt Lake City and Albuquerque, Assistant U.S. Attorney Patrick Schneider said. Not all homicides will result in prosecution, such as domestic violence cases with an element of self-defense that make a murder conviction tough to achieve.

LOCAL NEWS Hospital labor talks to center on staffing levels Christus, union begin contract negotiations By Patrick Malone The New Mexican
Staffing levels are expected to be a flashpoint between Santa Fe’s only hospital and its largest employee union when contract negotiations begin this week. The same issue was at the forefront during three months of contentious negotiations in 2011 for the current contract between Christus St. Vincent Regional Medical Center and New Mexico District 1199 of the National Union of Health Care Employees. The current contract is set to expire on July 31. Under the current labor agree-
Personnel director for state to retire
ment, a staffing committee of five members of management and five nurses was created to determine when short-staffing occurs. It replaced negotiated staffing grids that carried monetary penalties for the hospital when stipulated levels of staffing were not met. In 2010, the hospital paid about $720,000 in short-staffing penalties. Many union members said they grudgingly accepted the change three years ago, and heading into this round of negotiations, staffing remains a priority for the union. “The nurses on all units are rushing from room to room, rationing their time with patients, due to less than adequate staffing,” said Diane Spencer, a regis-
tered nurse and member of the union’s negotiating team. “It has become the norm rather than the exception for the nursing assistants to have 12-20 patients, which translates to three-five minutes per patient per hour. Therefore, they do not have time to provide the basic care that our patients need and deserve. We hope we can address this through the staffing committee.” Nurses employed at Christus St. Vincent have challenged staffing levels on several fronts since their current union contract with the hospital was adopted. They filed a complaint last year with the New Mexico Department of Health, claiming that the hospital was short-staffed, but the state found no wrongdoing on the
part of the hospital. Nurses from throughout the state, including Santa Fe, this year pressed the Legislature to require the Department of Health to report staffing levels at hospitals online. Funding for that project was included in the state budget, but Gov. Susana Martinez vetoed it. Nurses have been vocal that staffing levels at Christus St. Vincent should be a part of the discussion when a community health care study authorized by Santa Fe City Council in February begins meeting sometime later this year. The hospital’s management has been slower than the union to identify the key issues it expects during negotiations.

Moser plans to leave post by end of May, cites health issues By Milan Simonich
The New Mexican
Gene Moser, who manages the state personnel system covering about 18,000 jobs, announced Monday that he is retiring at the end of May. Moser, 67, said he has had serious health problems and wants to spend more time his wife and grandchildren. He has been state personnel director since March 2011. In a statement, Gov. Susana Martinez praised Moser for his leadership and reforms he made in the personnel office. She said improvements under Moser included re-establishing minimum qualification standards for state jobs and consolidating human resource functions for small agencies. “He’s had a distinguished career and is among the most knowledgeable and effective HR managers New Mexico has ever seen,” Martinez said. One of Moser’s responsibilities was serving as lead negotiator for the state in contract talks with three employee unions. Negotiations began nearly three years ago but none of the union contracts has been settled. Moser’s staff at the personnel office has said that labor talks had reached impasses, a position two of the three unions dispute. An arbitrator will intervene in the state’s negotiations with the third union, the Fraternal Order of Police. Martinez hired a private company, Albuquerque-based Management Associates Inc., to assist Moser and his staff in the contract negotiations. Management Associates received $250,000 for the two years it was involved in the labor talks, according to state records. Miles Conway, a spokesman for the largest of the unions, the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, said terms of existing contracts remain in effect because of evergreen clauses. Even so, he said workers were frustrated. “To put it mildly, relations between the union and the State Personnel Office have been difficult,” Conway said. Moser spent most of his working life in personnel and labor relations jobs, both in government and in health care. He previously was human resources director of the city of Albuquerque and University Hospital. He also worked for four years as principal analyst for the Legislative Finance Committee.

2 Rio Arriba men charged with unemployment benefits fraud Accountant, co-defendant accused of defrauding federal, state workforce agencies in New Mexico, Texas, Colorado The New Mexican
A 41-year-old accountant from Velarde prosecutors pleaded not guilty Monday to federal charges that he defrauded the federal and state unemployment insurance system out of more than $1.3 million. Jasonn Gonzales, 41, who was arrested April 24, was arraigned in federal court in Albuquerque, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said in a news release, and he remains in custody pending a May 2 detention hearing. The six-count indictment charges him and co-defendant Gerald Archuleta, 43, of Ojo Caliente with conspiracy and mail fraud. Gonzales also is charged with aggravated identity theft. Archuleta has yet to be arrested and is considered a fugitive, prosecutors said. The two defendants are accused of engaging in a scheme to defraud the federal and state unemployment insurance system in New Mexico, Texas and Colorado, which seeks to ease the effects of unemployment through weekly payments to laid-off workers while claimants seek a job. The program is administered on behalf of the federal government by agencies in each state. Between 2009 and 2012, the indictment
alleges, Gonzales and Archuleta schemed to defraud the system by making false and fraudulent claims in the names of real people and registering numerous nonexistent companies, then filing false quarterly reports for the fictitious companies, which identified claimed employees. They allegedly provided names, birth dates and Social Security numbers of the claimed employees without the knowledge or authorization of the claimed employees, who were real people. They then filed claims for benefits, providing post office box as mailing addresses where the state agencies mailed debit cards. “During the life of the conspiracy,” prosecutors said in a statement, “Gonzales and Archuleta allegedly submitted fraudulent claims for unemployment benefits in the aggregate amount of $1,356,461, and defrauded the three state workforce agencies of approximately $801,848 in total.” The indictment includes forfeiture provisions seeking a money judgment in the amount of $801,848 as well as the forfeiture of assets and property derived from proceeds traceable to the alleged criminal activity. If convicted, Gonzales and Archuleta each face a statutory maximum penalty of 20 years in federal prison on the conspiracy charge and each of five mail fraud charges. If convicted of aggravated identity theft, Gonzales faces a twoyear mandatory prison sentence to be served consecutive to any sentence imposed on the other charges.

Ex-waitress takes stand in wrongful death case vs. Applebee’s Family of sisters killed in fatal DWI crash says eatery acted irresponsibly to promote booze sales via deals By Phaedra Haywood
The New Mexican
Marcella Barton, a former waitress at Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill in Santa Fe, was the first witness called by the defense in a wrongful death case in U.S. District Court in Albuquerque on Monday, but it’s unclear how her testimony might affect the outcome. The lawsuit was filed by the family of Del Lynn Peshlakai and Deshauna Peshlakai, teenage sisters who died after a drunken driver rear-ended the car they were riding in, killing the sisters and their dog and injuring both parents. The Navajo family from Naschitti were in Santa Fe for a basketball tournament when the crash happened March 5, 2010, on Cerrillos Road. The family sued Applebee’s, where the drunken driver, James Ruiz, had been drinking earlier that night. A separate lawsuit filed against the Blue Corn Cafe and Brewery, where Ruiz was drinking after leaving Applebee’s, ended in a settlement. Barton, who worked at Applebee’s for about three years starting in July 2008, said Monday that management at the restaurant constantly reminded servers not to over-serve patrons or serve those who came in already drunk. She also testified about the establishment’s tight controls over alcohol — no one could come across the bar without a ticket, she said — and protocol for dealing with intoxicated guests. Servers notified one another, the bartender and management when a customer is cut off, for example, so that they can’t try to “sneak” another drink from other employees. She also said she had called cabs for patrons in the past, for which the restaurant had paid the fare. But Barton also acknowledged that Ruiz — and Gilbert Mendoza, with whom he was drinking with that night and whose truck Ruiz was driving when he crashed — had been friends of hers for years and that she rarely, if ever, saw Ruiz without a drink in his hand. She also said customers almost never ordered bottled beers during happy hour at Applebee’s because of a promotional deal that offered a much larger beer — an 18- to 20-ounce pour called the Brewtus — for only 50 cents more than the standard 12-ounce bottled beer. Plaintiff attorneys have suggested that the restaurant chain irresponsibly promoted increased alcohol consumption via such special deals. Barton was not Ruiz’ server on March 5, but she testified that she did speak to the two men when they came in that night and as they were leaving, and she said she didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary about their behavior. Asked if she had ever “comped” beers for customers, Barton answered no. She also denied ever stealing beers from behind the bar or buying beers for Ruiz, Mendoza or anyone else. The lawsuit named Applebee’s Neighborhood Grill, Applebee’s International Inc. and then-franchisee AmRest LLC as defendants. A manager at the Applebee’s in Santa Fe said Monday said the branch is no longer owned by AmRest LLC and was bought by another entity. The jury trial is expected to last through early next week. Ruiz — who was out on bond in connection with his fourth DWI offense when he smashed into the family’s car, causing a pileup that included two other vehicles — was convicted of vehicular homicide and causing bodily injury by vehicle and is serving a 42-year prison sentence.
Albuquerque police begin crisis training The Associated Press
ALBUQUERQUE — Police began receiving crisis intervention training on Monday, a month after a homeless camper was shot and killed by Albuquerque officers, generating protests around the city. The first training class includes 35 officers, with the eventual goal of having 100 percent certification within 18 months. At this point, only about a quarter of the agency’s officers have been trained in crisis intervention practices during their careers. The training began as the U.S. Justice Department started a series of community meetings on its findings that the Albuquerque Police Department engaged in a pattern of excessive force. The first meeting was held Monday evening at Alamosa Community Center, and two more were scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday. The meetings are a chance for Justice Department officials to gather insights and recommendations on how APD should be reformed, the federal agency said. About 50 people gathered for Monday’s meeting and told federal officials they would like to see more accountability among officers and better training aimed at de-escalating potentially violent situations. Among its findings, the Justice Department said Albuquerque police often used unnecessary excessive force with those struggling with mental illness. Albuquerque Police Assistant Chief Robert Huntsman has said the department was still reviewing whether crisis-intervention officers need more latitude or control at scenes. “We’re looking at all of our systems and all of our units and all of our policies and procedures, and that

ALBUQUERQUE — A former New Mexico Public Education Department official has been indicted in what federal authorities call a bribery scheme involving two Illinois educationcompany executives. An indictment filed last week in U.S. District Court in northern Illinois alleges Arturo Martinez took bribes from 58-year-old Jowhar Soultanali and his son, 34-year-old Kabir Kassam, as part of a $33 million fraud racket. According to the indictment, Martinez, then an educational administrator, accepted from the Illinois pair money, meals and services at a strip club. At the time, Martinez was the director of migrant education. There was no listing for Martinez, and it was

Their tiny bodies were found stuffed into cardboard boxes hidden in the garage of her home in Pleasant Grove, Utah, just south of Salt Lake City. Megan Huntsman, 39, who has three daughters and whose family members said she lived a troubled life, faces a life sentence on each count if she is convicted. Huntsman made a brief initial appearance in a Provo, Utah, courtroom Monday morning and appeared calm, but did not speak.

patient care would guide the negotiation and keep the discourse on track. “We respect all of our employees, those who are represented by a bargaining unit and those who are not,” Delgado said. The contract negotiations will affect about 400 nurses and 100
medical technicians. Almost 300 more employees belong to the service and maintenance union at the hospital, but their contract is not currently up for negotiation. The hospital employs about 1,900 people. Contact Patrick Malone at 9863017 or pmalone@sfnewmexican.

Tension over the police department’s use of force escalated last month after police shot and killed homeless camper James Boyd in the foothills of the Sandia Mountains during a standoff.

TONI RAPPORT ZAVISTOVSKI JANUARY 3, 1942 ~ APRIL 25, 2014 A violinist, humanitarian, author, beloved wife, mother and friend, Toni Rapport Zavistovski was born in Los Angeles, California, and lived in New York City and Santa Fe, New Mexico. The epitome of selflessness, she was remarkable in her grace, strength, optimism, intellect, and boundless devotion to family and friends. Her support of music, the arts and charitable organizations drove her. Having nourished so many with her warmth, food and company, she will always be remembered for her passion as a gourmet cook and her ability to bring people together. Toni was a cum laude graduate of the University of Southern California, having been the university orchestra’s concertmaster and 1st violinist of its resident string quartet. After graduating, Toni was a student in Jascha Heifetz’ master class for three years. Toni was a winner of the Coleman Chamber Music competition (judged by Jascha Heifetz, Gregor Piatigorsky and Leonard Pennario) and of the Young Musicians Foundation competition. As a violin soloist, she was concertized extensively and was awarded a Fulbright Grant to London in 1966 for string quartet study with the Amadeus Quartet. During her year abroad, she recorded sonatas for the BBC in London and Warsaw Radio in Poland where her pianist was Wladyslaw Szpilman, the subject of Roman Polanski’s Oscar-winning film The Pianist. Upon her return, Toni was a soloist at the Aspen, Marlboro and Newport Music Festivals. In 1968 she met and fell madly in love with her husband, Polish cellist Leshek Zavistovski, who she met on the stage of Carnegie Hall. Together they formed The Bergson Trio, which performed in Alice Tully Hall in Lincoln Center to critical acclaim by the New York Times. Toni and Leshek also founded and co-directed the Newport Opera Festival and performed together in the Metropolitan Opera Orchestra for over 30 years, where Toni was Assistant Principal Violin and one of the first female members to join the Met Orchestra. In 1994, she and Leshek founded Zara Arts International, specializing in custom-designed music and art trips around the world, from San Francisco and New York to Italy and Vienna. A breast-cancer survivor, she was tenaciously devoted to supporting cancer research. Chair of the Artistic Committee for the non-profit Samuel Waxman Cancer Research Foundation at New York’s Mt. Sinai Hospital, she solicited Marilyn Horne, Samuel Ramey, Placido Domingo, Frederica Von Stade, Barbara Cook and Tyne Daly to perform for the Foundation’s bi-annual gala benefit. Toni was a Trustee of the Board of the Santa Fe Chamber Music Festival for six years and its President from 2007 to 2010. As a writer, Toni co-authored Children and Fish Don’t Talk: Adventures with Nazis, Communists and the Metropolitan Opera, and up until April 2014 she was writing her own literary work, titled Reflections: It Could Have Been Worse. She is survived by her husband of 46 years, Leshek Zavistovski; three daughters, Tanya, Monique and Katia; her son Gregory; one granddaughter, Chloe; her older brother, Jay Rapport; and countless dear friends.

e-Voices Our Web readers speak out: Tecolote says farewell to longtime home on Cerrillos Road, April 20 ‘Adkins said the restaurant has been operating “ without a lease for at least eight years’ Huh? Is that
the way to run a business? You’re in a building that doesn’t belong to you and you have no lease? Wow. Eight years? Why am I flashing back to the recent Albuquerque Candy Lady eviction? Wasn’t that under similar circumstances? How can you be in any building without a lease?” A.M.
K.T. and Matt [Adkins], may the force of Alice and “ Bill be with both of you. Best of luck on continuing the tradition of Tecolote!” T.P.
Questions linger after death of avid bicyclist in train collision, April 21 This is sad and unfortunate. A basic of any ‘crossing’ anywhere is to look both ways. I am surprised we do not see more accidents with bicycles since I rarely see one stop at a stop sign or even a red light. For those few (a very small minority) who do, I thank you for following the rules of the road.” D.F. It’s a tragedy. My deepest condolences to the family. But … We can’t as a society implement every possible safety feature ever created or dreamed of to protect people in every conceivable situation. People simply have to be personally responsible for themselves. Americans are already way too coddled. There were a lot of warnings: sounds, lights, etc., but even if none of those existed, who crosses a street, train track, etc, without looking?” B.S.

LOOKING IN: DEBBIE HAYCOCK
Searching for Tim, and finding him F irst, I would like to tell Santa Fe how I met Tim Tafoya, the Marine veteran who died earlier this year and was buried by your community. My husband, Ross Haycock, was Tim’s sergeant at Camp Pendleton back in the 1970s. I didn’t even know my husband back then. He got out of the Marines in ’76. I met my husband in ’78 and married him in ’79. He would talk about this group of seven men who worked in the same squadron. There was a closeness and bond that they still share today. It didn’t matter if there were months or years of no communication. They were brothers. Tim came to live with us in 1980. My husband got him a job, and Tim brought his girlfriend from California with him. They were here in Utah for about two years. They broke up, and Tim moved back to California. Fast forward — Tim went back into the Marine Corps, much to everyone’s surprise. We also knew Tim needed that discipline. When he applied to work on Marine One, he failed to tell us that he had used my husband as a refer-
ence. So when we had a federal marshal show up at the door asking questions, my first reaction to him was, “I don’t have any past-due bills.” Then they proceeded to ask my husband about Tim. He got the job. Tim was not allowed to divulge the places he was going to directly because of security, so when he called, he would ask me, “What size of Italian sandals do you wear?” We could keep track of him that way (plus, he sent me the sandals). He made trips to Utah. We would enjoy camping and fishing. He also went with us to Montana (too many stories, not enough Kleenex). Tim became very upset when his aunt was dying. He had a hard time understanding and accepting that he was losing one of his only “blood relatives” whom he truly loved. He would call me all the time with questions. At the time, I worked in hospice care, so I tried to answer his questions. He was never the same after she died. We would hear less and less from Tim. Phone calls were never returned and finally disconnected. Mail would also be
returned. Not just from us but everyone in this group. We all searched for him. We thought maybe he was in jail. We all had hopes that he would call one of us. Tim was loved deeply by all of us. While doing another search on April 8, I finally “found Tim.” Everyone was called. We all cried, but none of us was surprised by what happened to Tim. Tim was private. Tim had his demons. We loved him, so we will not dwell on those demons. We never knew him to have an unkind word for anyone. We would have taken care of Tim. He was family. He was only alone in his head, not in our hearts. The men listed below wish to thank the community for laying their brother to rest with the respect he deserved. Our hearts are breaking for this loss. Debbie Haycock wrote this, signed by Ross L. Haycock, K.D. Sweeten, Jim O’Shea, Mike Simco, Steve Tidwell and J.R. Paul. (The late H. Barker was also one of the brothers). Debbie Haycock resides in West Point, Utah.
Our View: Early childhood spending can boost learning, April 22 One of the rare occasions that I agree with The “ Santa Fe New Mexican’s view.” C.M. The real view is that ‘early childhood education’ is “ nothing more than taxpayer-subsidized day care and has nothing to do with education.” S.S.
Refuse prompts new rule: Plaza stage off limits, April 24 If the city is adding more police to the Plaza beat, why can’t they keep a closer eye on things and see that the trashing of the stage does not happen and that the violators are involved in the restoration of any damage they’ve caused. What about the kids? The Plaza stage has been the site of many a child’s fantasy. You see the joy in their hearts as they dance about on the stage. And, because our officials are not up to the task of preventing abuse of the facility, it will be arbitrarily closed to all the citizens. As a longtime resident (1960), I beg the mayor and council to at least open up the stage on some periodic basis to allow the citizens to play as they do at the obelisk. What next? Are we going to cordon off the obelisk? Let the citizens have their Plaza and keep order at the same time.” J.M.
“
What the heck has happened to our town? The “ worst that used to happen on the Plaza was a traffic standstill from cruisers or from the hundreds of students that used to gather across from Häagen-Dazs on Friday night to find out where to head next. … I’m sure the tourists are real impressed with our busker begging area. Traffic is not the problem!” O.M.
Our View: Chain the bandstand? Bad guys still remain, April 26 The bandstand problem is the same as the busker ‘problem.’ The police aren’t patrolling the Plaza and enforcing ordinances. Even the solution is similar: Put up a chain so that the police are absolved of any responsibility. If police were handling the rare troublesome, unlicensed busker or the drunk urinating or vomiting on the bandstand, we wouldn’t be stripping the rights of good, decent people as a solution.” J.C.
“
“
Kind of a cheap shot at the downtown library. I have used the library every few days for 15 years, and I have never felt unsafe. I drop my kids off there and come back for them in an hour or two. It’s always well-staffed and tidy. Yes, the ‘great unwashed,’ as you call them, smell. So what? They’re people, too. Propose some solutions instead of urging we ‘get rid of them.’ The poor will always be with us, no? This editorial is unkind and unhelpful.” J.P.M.
The situation is far more complex than ridding “ the Plaza of the alleged unsightly, aesthetically
unappealing ‘bums.’ This is a direct reflection of the state of our society as a whole, homelessness, lack of resources and training to engage them in alternative activities. Sure, Santa Fe New Mexican, let’s just put a Band-Aid on this and wave your magic wand, and it will all just disappear!” S.W.

Public servant truly served visitors
A
ssistant Fire Chief Paul Babcock reflected the finest in your city’s hospitality during our recent brief visit to your fair city. On arriving April 10 at the International Folk Art Museum (our top goal), only rumors existed that a “fire marshal” had closed the whole Museum Hill site, and no signage appeared on the locked gate. After repeated efforts to find out more, we reached Mr. Babcock, who took time to find out the reason for closure and explain it to us. Moreover, he generously offered us complimentary admission tickets to the museum on April 11 before we left Santa Fe that morning. Mr. Babcock’s kindness brought a truly happy ending to what could have been a disappointing experience in your city. Martin Limbird

Traffic views As I sit waiting for my flight back to Denver this beautiful Easter Day, I am
reading the local paper. I am interested in the controversy surrounding the issue of closing the Plaza to traffic. As a first-time visitor, I’d like to share my perspective. My husband and I, both avid walkers, enjoyed our daily walking of the Plaza and surrounding areas, one day covering seven miles total. We were very aware of the busy traffic in the area and even commented to each other how congested and noisy it was when we were having lunch at the Draft Station, on the rooftop deck. As a visitor, I would definitely have preferred the area be car-free. The sidewalks are crowded and narrow, and we occasionally had to step into the street to get around slower walkers. Having spent many afternoons in Boulder, Colo., I can say that the wider walking area of the Pearl Street Mall is quite nice. Additionally, may I suggest that the trees in the Plaza area be tended to by a good arborist? They look scraggly and neglected, and badly in need of some TLC. Jennifer McDonald

Climate cooperation Staci Matlock’s article on climate change action (“For the Earth or the bottom line,” April 20) was excellent. She noted various emissions reduction efforts by residents and by the city, but also added, “Santa Fe’s steps to be more environmentally friendly may hardly make a dent in climate change, but the city still finds it worth doing.” This is the hard part about climate action: No one person’s efforts will make a dent in climate change; we all must work together. Yet, how do we motivate everyone to act? Answer: with national legislation. Residents of New Mexico must urge their senators and representatives to support national climate change legislation (preferably a carbon tax with rebate to households). Anyone in Congress who does not acknowledge the need for national climate legislation should be removed from office this coming November. Judy Weiss

Day laborers and the pecking order the hard stuff. It’s an American tale as old as time: My zacatecano dad, for instance, works for people from Jalisco. Papi hires michoacano-run firms for any construction jobs at his house; those Michoacán natives, in turn, get poblanos to do the sawing and shoveling. And those workers, in turn, always hire a Oaxacan or guerrerense as a chalán to do the dirtiest work imaginable. All these guys used to go back to Mexico to live the good life after Gustavo making their pennies here, but Arellano the drug cartels put an end to ¡Ask a Mexican! that quick — no joke!
Dear Mexican: Is there a pecking order at the places where you see day laborers awaiting to be hired? What’s the hierarchy? Are all those dudes Mexican or are some Central and South American, and if so who has priority when the random contractor comes by to pick up a worker for the day? Also, after they make a bunch of loot, do they go back to Mexico and live in the lap of luxury or what? Gracias! Dude Who Already Got a Job
Dear Gabacho: The ethnic makeup of day laborers really depends on what part of los Estados Unidos you’re in. In Los Angeles, for instance, research done by the UCLA Center for Labor Research and Education and my old boss, Abel Valenzuela, has found that about 15 percent of day laborers in the region are not Mexican. In New York, on the other hand, you have big percentages of Eastern Europeans and South Americans (especially Ecuadorians) in the jornaleros equation. As for a pecking order: Whoever came first gets the prime jobs, while the latter arrivals get
Dear Mexican: Do you believe there is a cultural difference that causes Mexicans to have less sensitivity about personal and shared space? I grew up all over the South and lived for six years in the Rio Grande Valley of Texas. The town where I lived was less than 10 miles from the Texas-Mexico border. Immediately after moving to the valley, I noticed that the Mexican people at the grocery store, mall, doctor’s office, school and most every other place had less respect for their sur-
roundings. Whether shopping for clothes or groceries, I found Mexican people had little restraint when it came to bumping your cart out of the way, shoving you if you are in the way of their purchase, or hovering at a disturbing proximity. I also notice a complete disregard for respecting the products on the shelves of stores. Mexicans would grab a shirt or pants off a table, take a look and throw them on the floor or on top of a pile. This same behavior was true at restaurants, bookstores and all manner of shops. Is there a different attitude toward public boundaries in the Mexican culture? I would like to understand the behavior so I can keep it from breeding untrue stereotypes! Feeling Violated Dear Gabacha: You know a Mexican’s sense of personal space is [messed] up when our term for standing in line is hacer cola — make ass. Kind of explains our hatred of immigration policy, ¿qué no?

Affirmative action: A policy question
R
eading strongly held views about political morality into the U.S. Constitution is a powerful temptation on both sides of the political divide. That’s one lesson of the heated debate between Supreme Court justices in this week’s split decision to uphold a Michigan ban on affirmative action at state universities. Justice Sonia Sotomayor argued that it’s unconstitutional for a state to make its universities admit students without regard to race. Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas argued that it’s actually race-sensitive admissions policies that are unconstitutional. The better approach is the one Justice John Paul Stevens took in 1978 in University of California Regents v. Bakke. When there’s no need to decide what the Constitution says about a policy, the justices shouldn’t take up the question. And there’s already a statute that settles whether universities should be able to take race into account in admissions: the Civil Rights Act of 1964. That law holds that “no person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.” These words are not tricky to interpret. They mean that a university receiving federal funds can’t discriminate against applicants based on their race. They can’t discriminate against blacks or whites or Asians or any other racial group. Which means, as a necessary implication, that they can’t discriminate in favor of any racial group either. Justice Lewis Powell wrote the controlling opinion in Bakke, and he came up with an ingenious way of ignoring the Civil Rights Act. That law, he reasoned, was an attempt to enforce the clause of the 14th Amendment that requires states to offer equal protection of the law to everyone. If

OUR VIEW
Public money, public trust
I the court decided that racial preferences for disadvantaged minorities are compatible with equal protection, then they would have to be compatible with the statute, too. Stevens’ response was that even if the Constitution did not itself prohibit some forms of racial discrimination, it allowed Congress to do so. No justice has ever given an adequate answer to his argument — not even Stevens himself, who switched sides on the issue during his time on the court without ever explaining himself. The court has just kept pretending that the statute doesn’t say what it says. Resurrecting Stevens’ original approach would let the issue of racial preferences in college admissions be settled democratically. We could go with the no-racial-preferences policy of the Civil Rights Act. Or, if we reached a political consensus in favor of allowing universities some leeway to discriminate, Congress could amend the act, and the president could sign the revision. Instead of going the statutory route, though, the justices have for decades tried to find
the right policy toward racial preferences in the Constitution. Are they categorically forbidden? All right if they’re moderate? Mandatory? None of these attempts has been very convincing. Sotomayor argues that by passing a ban on racial preferences in a state referendum, Michigan made it harder for racial minorities to get their way — and that this is constitutionally suspect. Among the many problems with this analysis is that the referendum clearly served the interests of one racial minority: Asian Americans, whom collegiate affirmative action discriminates against. The Constitution can’t plausibly be held to put a thumb on the scales for some minorities over others. The idea that the Constitution mandates colorblindness in government institutions, including government-funded universities, is attractive. But the constitutional text doesn’t clearly command the courts to strike down race-conscious policies. Nor is there much historical evidence suggesting that the 14th Amendment was originally understood that way.
The conservative justices who insist on colorblindness don’t even try to make such a historical argument, which ought to bother them as originalists. My own view on the policy question aligns with the court’s conservatives. Raceconscious admissions policies treat some applicants unfairly, generate ill will and reduce the likelihood that some students will succeed. Universities that follow these policies also seem incapable of telling the truth about what they’re doing. But it’s a policy question, not a constitutional one. The Constitution doesn’t tell us how the University of Michigan or the state’s voters should decide the issue. And we should all quit pretending otherwise.

Stay tuned — governor’s race not locked yet
T
hursday’s article brightened my entire day (“Fundraising in governor’s contest takes an ugly turn,” April 24). Like others, I had written off the gubernatorial election. I figured that with the millions the out-of-state oilmen have been dumping into Gov. Susana Martinez’s campaign, the lady had a lock on the race. Suddenly there’s Alan Webber, a prominent, politically savvy businessman, who has chosen Santa Fe as his home. Seems Webber is running for the Democratic nomination. From the viciously snide attacks the Martinez camp has already used against him, they evidently feel he’s a threat. We’ll need to learn more about Webber and the policies he’d bring to the Roundhouse should he win, but at the very least would he not be better than Texana Susana? We’d hoped for more from America’s first female Hispanic governor, but what has she done? Nada! We should take a good look at Mr. Webber. Maybe he can help put an ex before the name of the nation’s first female Hispanic governor. David Paulsen

Grim values
Getting caught
The GOP attack on Alan Webber for Mark Rudd’s endorsement is a vindictive attack that seems to typify the Gov. Susana Martinez cabal playbook — I can imagine her beaming face upon reading it. I value the admonition: Don’t let your life make a mockery of your values. If that attack represents her values, then the former prosecutor is relishing being the state persecutor-in-chief. My friends will never endorse a candidate with those abhorrent values.
Smells like we are back to the (former Gov. Bill) Richardson era on the fourth floor. One can only wonder what the intent of Keith Gardner was, using a state credit card for personal purchases. He got caught, so he had the privilege of paying the state back and Gov. Susana Martinez is OK with that. I say, fire him! He surely knew what he was doing. If it was ignorance, he certainly has no business holding his high-paying job and title. “Chief of staff, ” indeed!

ntent often is not a measure of whether a miscreant is breaking the law or policy. As a former prosecutor, Gov. Susana Martinez knows that better than most. Her knowledge of the law makes it even more difficult to understand why she isn’t doing more to rein in her freespending chief of staff. Her office’s defense? It was “poor practice,” but there was “no ill intent involved.” That’s a defense a crusading district attorney could shred. But as governor, Martinez is content to look the other way. Her chief of staff, Keith Gardner — who should know better — was caught using a state credit card for thousands of dollars in personal spending, a direct violation of state policy and procedures. State-issued cards cannot be used for personal purchases, even if the buyer plans to pay the state back. Yet, Gardner used the card for more than $5,000 in payments. He spent on hotels, tires, a cellphone and accessories, a necktie, heartburn medication, car fresheners, a coin display case, a copy of Popular Science magazine and more. Some of his purchases were even tax-free because they were charged on his government card. All of that, despite signing an agreement at the beginning of his employment with the state indicating that he understood state policy on the use of credit cards, as well as accepted the possible consequences — up to and including prosecution. The purchases, first reported by the Albuquerque Journal, garnered this email response to reporter Steve Terrell from the Governor’s Office: “Keith and the chief financial officer met regularly and reconciled purchases. He made regular reimbursements of any items that needed to be repaid. Those purchases and reimbursements were paid back throughout the last three years.” Because of his violations Gardner now must obtain a pre-authorization for any purchases. It’s important to be clear that Gardner repaid all purchases, with interest. It appears he was careless rather than criminal. The governor’s statement says Gardner met regularly with the chief financial officer and “reconciled” purchases. That meeting should have happened once. Gardner should have been told not to use the state card again for personal items. Period. After a second meeting, his card should have been taken away. Any more violations, and he should have faced further penalties. None of that happened. Gardner has not been disciplined for flouting state policy. At an annual salary of $136,350, Gardner can afford his own purchases. He’s also smart and savvy enough to follow state policy. He did not, despite signing the statement. Working for the public sometimes means doing things the hard way and keeping strict track of how money is spent. It means keeping expenses separate, even on a trip. Gardner failed at that, and his boss, Gov. Martinez has failed at holding him accountable.
Las Vegas, N.M.
From The Santa Fe New Mexican: April 29, 1914: Lake Arthur, N.M. — Last week, while C.J. Debes was driving across the prairie south of Russell’s place, his horse was bitten by a rattlesnake that was lying in the grass along the road. The horse suffered intensely for some time and its leg was swollen to twice its natural size, but the pain and swelling was much reduced by the immediate application of kerosene and other medicines, and later a veterinary was summoned from Hagerman and through careful treatment the animal was soon out of danger. Mr. Debes killed the reptile, which carried eight rattles. April 29, 1964: Washington — Hundreds of U.S. jet fighter bombers and attack planes — each capable of hurling tons of explosives — are poised within striking reach of Cuba, a check disclosed today. President Johnson, the State Department and other U.S. official and unofficial sources have been warning Cuba of possible serious consequences if Fidel Castro follows through on his threat to shoot down American reconnaissance planes. These U.S. warnings have been prompted by a belief that the Soviets may be about to turn over to the Cubans 24 complexes of SA2 antiaircraft missiles. The United States gets photographic coverage of all of Cuba by high altitude planes at least once a week. April 29, 1989: All of the members of Taos Pueblo police force resigned Tuesday and were replaced immediately, the pueblo business manager said. Roy Bernal said the officers quit, but he would not say why. Lt. War Chief Don Espinosa also declined to comment. Five officers quit. Nelson Cordova, the former tribal administrator, said more information might be available after today.

ill O’Connor was the guy who installed his own car stereo in high school and the kid whom teachers asked to set up the sound system. Today, he gets to tinker, patch, design and install gadgets for a living, but the technology is more high-end as his employees at Constellation Home Electronics design, install and manage smart-home technology, from a $7,000 TV and streaming router to a whole-house system that can surpass $100,000. One customer has hired the company to design a system along with a total remodel of her home. Tim Nielson, engineer and designer for Constellation, spent four weeks engineering the wiring plan and plotting on paper how each device would get power, cooling and interface with the rest of the electrical and appliance system. Each piece of wire has to be labeled should there ever be a maintenance issue — and some homes have four miles of cable and wire. Then, Nielson has to program each device — and that process can take another month. Increasingly, customers want more automation that is synced and easy for them to control from a smartphone or portable device. That might mean all the televisions work on the same remote device — 14 of them for one home Constellation is working on now. It also means more comprehensive security alerts for garage doors and windows as well as spot cameras at home gates, driveways and entrances. An integrated heating and cooling system, for instance, can be set with the rising and setting sun and then adjusted when windows or screen doors are open to save energy. Often, tighter designed energy-efficient homes need fresh-air intake, and those can be programmed to turn off when windows open. There are even emergency alerts that can be sent to a plumbing company when freeze sensors on pipes go off or sump pumps fail, important features for those with second homes, O’Connor said. “The system will literally call and email service providers if there is a problem,” O’Connor said. O’Connor is working on a home now where the kids have their own router band for television and streaming Internet, but the parents can control how much media they watch as well as the content choices. Many also want a guest wireless network so those who visit don’t have access to personal information. “When I started this, we were using tube TVs,” he said. “Now things are moving so fast you really have to pick an area and specialize in it.” O’Connor has 15 employees, and they have to stay up-to-date with training, often by webinars. Some specialize in security, others in video/audio home theater or heating and cooling. The company’s showroom and warehouse are on Guadalupe Street, but it increasingly has customers all over Northern New Mexico,

ore than 4,000 construction projects throughout New Mexico have taken advantage of tax credits offered by the state for solar and energy-efficient construction. When the program winds down and all the credits are claimed in 27 New Mexico counties, $39.1 million will have gone to owners of residential projects and $1.6 million to owners of commercial buildings, according to Ken Hughes, clean energy program manager for the state Energy, Minerals and Natural Resources Department. For commercial projects, the average credit was $95,721, while for residential projects it was $9,983. Santa Fe projects receiving tax credits include Levan Hall, St. John’s College; Los Alamos National Bank; the Thornburg campus; Campo Bruce Alegria multifamily project; Krasnow Homewise subdivisions; Tierra Vista subdivision; and Business Matters the Stagecoach apartments. But the money for the credits was limited by the Legislature, and so the program has effectively ended, unless it is extended when lawmakers meet in January. Homebuilders, contractors and those who work in the green-building business sector will be lobbying for that, as many say the program has helped expand the industry and moved energy efficiency toward the mainstream in the construction industry. But speaking at a recent lunch of the Santa Fe Area Homebuilders, some builders said paying more up front for lower longer-term energy bills is something more consumers are asking for, but there is already some backsliding without having the tax incentives, except in communities such as Santa Fe, where the building requirements have been changed to mandate better energy efficiency for all construction. So they will push for continuation of the program in some form — perhaps with a phase out over 10 years so the industry can continue to mature and take its case directly to consumers. The measures should also be extended to existing homeowners who want to remodel or make improvements, as that is a much larger constituency, some builders said. Meanwhile, lenders, builders and utility companies are looking for other ways to fund energy-efficiency projects, including loaning money based on the projected electricity and natural gas savings. Hughes, who sits on the transition team for Santa Fe Mayor Javier Gonzales, said it might be time for some out-of-the-box thinking as well. Those working with Gonzales have suggested that energy-saving projects might be funded through the city-owned water utility. Imagine allowing a homeowner to make $10,000 of energy improvements, perhaps even adding solar panels — and then paying that off over a decade with a slightly higher water bill, which would be offset by smaller gas and electric bills. The water company, which has a reserve fund, might even be able to collect interest on the deal. Hughes said the concept makes sense because less electrical generation would mean water savings for the entire state. “If you cut kilowatt hours, you’re not using as much water to make electricity. I think it has a lot of promise,” he said.

get in early when customers are considering a new home or remodeling. The problems with retrofitting older homes can be huge — especially those with adobe walls or historical features. Customers want high-tech features, but the devices and the wire have to be inconspicuous, which means wiring sometimes has to run through conduits on the roof and separate closets installed for cooling the technology systems.

KENTUCKY DERBY
California Chrome has 77-year-old trainer dreaming
By Beth Harris
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Art Sherman knows what it’s like to be at the Kentucky Derby with a brilliant colt that wins the race. He just hasn’t done it in 59 years. In 1955, Sherman was an 18-year-old exercise rider for Swaps, a Californiabred chestnut colt who beat Nashua to wear the garland of roses on the first Saturday in May. “I was just a kid then and just glad to
be learning,” he said. Now he’s 77 and bringing his own California-bred chestnut to Churchill Downs, where California Chrome is the likely favorite. The colt with the modest pedigree and impressive résumé traveled outside his home state for the first time Monday. He flew to Churchill Downs, where he’ll start getting used to the surface with a jog Tuesday. “He’ll look around and know he’s at a racetrack and feel right at home,” Sherman said. “That’s the way he is.”
California Chrome has won his last four races by a combined 24¼ lengths, including the $1 million Santa Anita Derby. “He’s the kind of horse you dream about,” Sherman said. California Chrome finished first in the Derby points leaderboard that determines the maximum 20-horse field for the 1¼-mile race. He’s won six of 10 career starts and has already topped $1 million in earnings.
California Chrome and jockey Victor Espinoza win the $250,000 California Cup Derby on Jan. 25 at Santa Anita in Arcadia, Calif. A full field of 20 is expected for the 140th Kentucky Derby on May 3. California Chrome is the early favorite.

Cano returns to Bronx for 1st time with the Mariners The Associated Press
SEATTLE — Robinson Cano knows it will be awkward from the moment he walks into Yankee Stadium and has to figure out the route to the visitors’ clubhouse for the first time in his career. And that’s before he takes the field in the Bronx wearing something other than pinstripes. “It’s going to be weird,” Cano said. “It’s going to feel a lot different being on the other side.” After signing his $240 million, 10-year contract with Seattle in the offseason, the All-Star second baseman will return to New York for the first time as a member of the Mariners on Tuesday night when they open a three-game series against the Yankees. Cano figures the reaction will be mixed.

Anyone with even a passing knowledge of Sterling’s history of discrimination charges and outlandish statements wasn’t surprised by the latest revelations. when players didn’t want to stay with the team. And that’s only what Sterling does when the world can see him. Opponents say the racially incendiary remarks attributed to Sterling and leaked to TMZ last weekend publicly show a side of the 80-year-old real estate mogul that has been ignored and rationalized for years. “It put a smile on my face that finally he would
be unable to deny the racist allegations against him,” said Carl Douglas, a lawyer who represented former Clippers general manager Elgin Baylor in a lawsuit against Sterling. “This is a guy who, as the owner, sits courtside at the half-court line,” Douglas added. “No other owner sits like that. He has an ego the size of the Grand Canyon.” Sterling has faced extensive federal charges of civil rights violations and racial discrimination in business, making shocking race-related statements in sworn testimony before reaching multimilliondollar settlements. He has also been sued for sexual harassment by former employees, and the court proceedings detailed an outlandish list of Sterling’s personal proclivities. Baylor, the former NBA great who served as the Clippers’ GM for 22 years, left the franchise with rancor and an unsuccessful lawsuit alleging race and age discrimination. Baylor claimed Sterling has a “plantation mentality” about the Clippers,

COMMENTARY
Most offensive sports owner isn’t Sterling
By Ishaan Tharoor The Washington Post
T
he comments allegedly made by Donald Sterling, the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, has generated an understandable furor in the United States, with many incensed by the vulgar racism aired in a leaked recording of a supposed conversation between him and a girlfriend. Even President Barack Obama, thousands of miles away on a tour of Asia, was compelled to weigh in on the controversy. But, as grotesque and unpalatable as the whole situation is, the immediate and near-universal condemnation heaped upon Sterling as the story grew viral is a sign that there is at
root a fundamental intolerance for this sort of intolerance in the United States, despite all the racial injustices that remain. Other parts of the world still have George more work to do. Becali Exhibit A: Romania, home of George “Gigi” Becali, possibly the most offensive owner in world sports. Since 2003, Becali has been in charge of Steaua Bucharest, one of the more famous and historic club sides in Eastern Europe. He is one of Romania’s richest men, a former shepherd turned real estate mogul who made

his fortune in the chaos that followed the fall of Communism. He served in the European Parliament in Brussels from 2009 to 2012 and then in the Romanian parliament until May, when he was sentenced to three years in prison for his role in a dodgy landswaps deal. (He has a very checkered legal history — including an arrest on kidnapping charges and reports of match-fixing.) He is now in jail but still runs Steaua Bucharest. But Becali is controversial for a whole other set of reasons: his penchant for homophobic, misogynist, racist rhetoric. It’ll be difficult to itemize every single offensive slur attributed to Becali, a larger-than-life man who has become something of a panto-
mime villain in the European press. A devout Orthodox Christian, Becali keeps artwork in his home depicting himself as Jesus and various apostles and saints. That religiosity has led to some extreme comments. In 2012, Becali reacted angrily to Lady Gaga’s presence in Romania, whom he deemed a “disciple of Satan.” “When she comes on the TV, I switch the channels after two seconds and spit on the TV,” he said. Worse are his thoughts on homosexuals. He banned songs by the British band Queen from being played at the stadium because of the sexuality of Queen’s late lead singer. In 2010, Becali reportedly blocked the

NASCAR COMMENTARY
No penalty needed for Va. scrap
By Jenna Fryer
The Associated Press
C
HARLOTTE, N.C. — Quick quiz: Who won the 1979 Daytona 500? The answer, of course, is Richard Petty. But very few people — if any — equate that race with “The King” grabbing the sixth of his seven Daytona 500 victories. That race is instead infamous for the last-lap crash between Donnie Allison and Cale Yarborough as they raced for the lead. The crash sparked a three-man fight after Allison’s brother, Bobby, pulled up to the accident scene. The brawl in the closing moments of the first race to be broadcast live in its entirety was a monumental moment for NASCAR, and the lasting image as the traditionally Southern sport officially announced its arrival on the national scene. Fast forward 35 years later to Saturday night at Richmond International Raceway, where tempers flared after the race. It seemed much ado about nothing when Brad Keselowski stomped down pit road to angrily wag his finger at Matt Kenseth in a scene that was just enough to keep viewers from changing the channel, but not enough to generate any real excitement. Then things got really interesting. An overhead camera happened to catch Casey Mears confronting Marcos Ambrose in the garage. About? Who knows. The two were racing each other for 18th place and Fox hardly had its cameras tuned to that battle. But something happened
between the two to get Mears upset, and his anger only grew as Ambrose seemed to dismiss him and turn away. So Mears grabbed the Australian, shoved him a bit and Ambrose responded with a right hook to Mears’ eye. It was hard enough to draw blood and knock Mears’ hat from atop his head. NASCAR is reviewing the incident and considering whether to discipline either of the drivers in its Tuesday penalty notices. If the sanctioning body is smart, it will close the file without taking action against either driver. Forget for a minute that it was a fight that put NASCAR on the national map, and that hard-scrabble, passionate drivers who aren’t afraid of confrontation are the bedrock of the sport. To this day, it’s those incidents that generate the most conversation. Joey Logano’s late pass of Kenseth, Keselowski and Jeff Gordon to win the race didn’t garner many national headlines on Sunday, but Ambrose’s shot to Mears’ face most certainly did. The decision to leave Ambrose and Mears alone isn’t about the attention that a fight draws to the sport. It’s about short-track racing on a Saturday night and the emotions that come from driving hard on tight tracks and in close quarters. Fans watch Bristol and Martinsville and Richmond fully expecting to be treated to bumping and banging and the post-race confrontations that come from explosive tempers. The incidents are celebrated and find their way into promo-
tional materials for the tracks and NASCAR itself. Taking that into account, Mears can’t be punished for confronting Ambrose after the race. Something happened on the track that infuriated him enough to seek out Ambrose. That conversation took place in the garage, NASCAR’s version of the office place, and it happened in a flurry of frenetic, post-race activity. Drivers return their cars to the haulers after the race, and at Richmond, the haulers are lined up in tight quarters. Crews are working furiously to pack up the car and the equipment, fans are milling about trying to chase down their favorite driver, reporters are rushing to seek out interviews before the parties slip away in the darkness. In that setting, Ambrose was grabbed and then shoved by a fellow driver. He reacted violently with a punch that might have startled Floyd Mayweather Jr., let alone Mears. Should Ambrose be punished for defending himself? For reacting in a heated moment? Absolutely not. It wasn’t a sucker punch, it didn’t put any crew members or fans in danger, and Mears himself seemed to take it in stride. The morning after he was punched, Mears ran in Jimmie Johnson’s charity race and acknowledged Ambrose “got me pretty good with that shot” in an interview with NASCAR. com. Indeed, the culture of short-track racing is an expectation of post-race fireworks. Unless NASCAR wants to remove that element and expectation, it should leave Ambrose and Mears alone.

Chrome: Had a humble start Continued from Page B-1 Pretty impressive for a colt from humble beginnings. His mother, named Not For Love, won just one race. She was purchased for $8,000 by Steve Coburn and Perry Martin, a move that prompted a trainer to call them “dumb asses” for getting involved in racing. Feeling inspired, Coburn and Martin named their operation DAP Racing, which stands for Dumb Ass Partners. Their silks include an image of a donkey. “We’re everyday people. I’m up at 4:30 every day going to work,” said Coburn, a press operator at a 13-employee Nevada company that makes magnetic strips for credit cards and driver licenses.
Martin runs a laboratory in Sacramento, Calif., that tests high-reliability equipment, like car air bags or medical equipment, or as he says, “The kind where somebody dies if something goes wrong.” Coburn and Martin’s partnership is based on handshake, and their wives are friends who enjoy the sport, too. The group came up with California Chrome’s name by drawing it out of a hat. Sherman has his first Derby starter because Coburn and Martin contacted him about training their horse. “He’s old school and he’s a regular guy,” Coburn said. “He doesn’t have a huge barn and he’s able to spend quality time with every horse he has in his barn.” Sherman is based at Los
Alamitos Racecourse in Orange County, Calif., 30 miles and a world away from Santa Anita, the mecca of racing in Southern California. Once a former jockey and racing official, Sherman took out his trainer’s license in 1980. His son, Alan, assists him with California Chrome, easily the best horse that’s ever been in their barn. Sherman plans to tour California Chrome around Churchill Downs. He wants the colt to get used to the paddock, where he will be saddled Saturday, and the starting gate, where 20 fractious colts will line up. “He gets anxious in the gate,” Sherman said. “He knows he’s got to come away from there running so we have to school him.”
UNM: Supporters for 40 years Continued from Page B-1 2020: The Campaign for UNM. The release says the Geists, who are native New Mexicans, have been loyal supporters of UNM for more than 40 years. They have been Lobo Club members, as well as season ticket holders at both football and basketball since 1966. “Sharon and Jerry have been dedicated UNM fans from as far back as when I was a Lobo as a student here,” said UNM president Robert G. Frank. “We are grateful to the Geists for their long history of community leadership and their generosity to the University. … This gift is a lasting legacy that will impact future Lobos for years to come and I feel privileged and honored to have been a part of the process.” Jerry Geist is the chairman at Santa Fe Cen-
ter Enterprises. Previously, he was the president and chief executive officer of Public Service Company of New Mexico. He received a regular Navy scholarship and graduated from the University of Colorado with a bachelor’s degree in electrical engineering in 1956. He served in the United States Navy for four years. Sharon Geist attended the University of Northern Colorado and spent her career as a music teacher. She is a past president of The Santa Fe Opera Guild. “Sharon and Jerry are a wonderful couple who have decided to demonstrate their generosity in an incredible way,” said Paul Krebs, UNM’s vice president for athletics. “We are very fortunate to be the recipients of this generous contribution, and I hope that this leadership gift encourages others in this community to invest in the future of Lobo Athletics.”
SPortS PREP ROUNDUP
St. Michael’s routs Española Valley The New Mexican
“The ball got over by a few feet, but it was a Española 3 liner all the way,” said Roseanne Noedel, St. Michael’s head coach. “Before the game, I thought there was no way anyone was going to do something like that. It shows how good she hit it.” Briona Vigil, Jackie Lara, Miranda Lovato and Mikayla Leyba all had two hits. Lovato had four RBI while Leyba drove in a pair and Vigil scored three runs. With their eyes on a Class AAA State Tournament bid, the Lady Horsemen wrap up their regular season over the course of the next few days. They travel to Albuquerque on Tuesday to face District 5AAA champion Hope Christian, then return home Friday for a doubleheader against Sandia Prep. At 3-3 in the district, St. Michael’s holds a one-game lead on Prep (2-4) for the second spot while Hope (6-0) has already nailed down the 5AAA title. “The game [Tuesday] is important, but what we have left against Sandia Prep is what really matters because it basically determines who gets second,” Noedel said. St. Mike’s
Before the curtain comes down on the 2014 prep softball regular season, St. Michael’s took one final crack at its nondistrict schedule entering the final week of play. The result was a 10-3 rout of visiting Española Valley on a windy, cold Monday afternoon at the Christian Brothers Athletic Complex. The Lady Horsemen pounded out 12 hits and got a complete game from starting pitcher Allie Berhost. The sophomore tossed seven innings, striking out 10, walking four and allowing eight hits. The visiting Lady Sundevils stranded 10 baserunners. They took an early 1-0 lead but St. Michael’s (11-11) scored twice in the second inning and four more times in the third. Española got within 6-3 in the sixth, but the Lady Horsemen tacked on four more in the bottom of the frame to close out the scoring. Berhost led the way at the plate, going 2-for-3 with a line-drive home run into the teeth of a ferocious wind coming out of left field.

“For us, that’s the big thing.” BASEBALL Monte del Sol 15, Santa Fe PreParatory 9 The Dragons were composed in the face of a 6-0 deficit at Fort Marcy Complex, scoring nine combined runs in the third and fourth innings to take control of second place in District 6AA. Five runs in the third helped Monte del Sol (12-8, 4-2) cut the margin to 6-5, then tacked on four more runs an inning later. Cruz Muniz had a two-run single in the third, while Lysander Reed-Powell drove in two runs with a single as the Dragons took a 9-5 lead. “We just did a good job keeping our poise,” said Frank Lucero, Monte del Sol head coach. “We went and really got going, and started getting some good hits. We had 12 hits overall, so it was a good one for us.” Eduardo Rivas overcame some control issues and allowed just three runs after Prep scored five times in the second. He surrendered seven hits and walked six, but struck out 10.

NBA ROUNDUP
James, Heat complete sweep of Bobcats Hawks and the 1970 Milwaukee Bucks are the only road teams in the shot-clock era to score at least 40 points and allow fewer than 20 in any quarter of a playoff game. Shelvin Mack led the eighth-seeded Hawks with 20 points. Paul George had 26 for Indiana, which got as close as eight points in the final minute.
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — LeBron James scored 31 points, and Miami completed a first-round sweep of Charlotte with a 109-98 victory Monday Heat 109 night. James scored Bobcats 98 19 points after slightly injuring his thigh in the third quarter. He finished the game 10 of 19 from the field and had nine assists. Chris Bosh added 17 points and Dwyane Wade battled through foul trouble and finished with 15 as Miami won its 20th straight game over Charlotte. The two-time defending champion NBA champions will await the winner of Brooklyn-Toronto series, which is tied 2-2. Kemba Walker led Charlotte with 29 points. The Bobcats played without Al Jefferson, their leading scorer and rebounder who has been bothered by a foot injury since the first quarter of Game 1.

run, and Atlanta fended off a furious fourthquarter rally to beat top-seeded Indiana and take a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven series. Atlanta can clinch the first-round series at home Thursday. Scott scored all 17 of his points during a 12-minute stretch when Atlanta went 13 of 16 from the field and outscored Indiana 41-19 to take a 61-40 halftime lead. The
SPUrS 93, MaVerICKS 89 In Dallas, Manu Ginobili scored 23 points, Boris Diaw hit a go-ahead 3-pointer in the final minute, and San Antonio held off a second-half surge by Dallas to beat the Mavericks, pulling even in their first-round playoff series. The Spurs regained the home-court advantage by getting a split of two games in Dallas, matching what the eighth-seeded Mavericks did in San Antonio. The Spurs led by 20 points in the third quarter before the Mavericks pulled even midway through the fourth quarter of Game 4. The score was still tied when Diaw hit from long range over Dirk Nowitzki at the top of the key for a 90-87 lead. Monta Ellis led Dallas with 20 points but missed two potential tying shots after Diaw’s basket.
Sterling: Several sponsors drop Clippers Continued from Page B-1 envisioning a team of “poor black boys from the South playing for a white coach.” “When I heard that voice [on the TMZ recordings], there was a visceral reaction,” said Douglas, who deposed Sterling during Baylor’s lawsuit. “I recognized the venom in that voice.” Sterling’s new embarrassment might lead to his longterm banishment from the NBA. Several major Clippers sponsors dropped or re-evaluated their association with the team Monday, including State Farm, CarMax, Kia Motors America, Virgin America and Red Bull. But amid the national outrage over the Clippers owner’s apparent comments last weekend, former NBA star Kevin Johnson asked the question that must be addressed by Commissioner Adam Silver and the owners who control the league. “We wanted [Silver] to give us a full accounting of the prior accusations of racism made against Mr. Sterling and why those were never sanctioned by the NBA,” said Johnson, who was asked by Clippers guard Chris Paul to speak for the players’ union membership. “It’s our
responsibility to find out the history of Mr. Sterling, and why sanctions did not occur.” Anyone with even a passing knowledge of Sterling’s history of discrimination charges and outlandish statements wasn’t surprised by the latest revelations. The son of a produce dealer, Sterling grew up in the Boyle Heights neighborhood of Los Angeles. Donny Tokowitz eventually changed his last name, earned a law degree and began practicing in divorce and personal injury in 1961. He spent his earnings methodically buying up real estate all across Los Angeles, becoming famous for almost never selling any property. With encouragement from Lakers owner Jerry Buss, Sterling paid just over $12 million in 1981 for the beleaguered San Diego Clippers, who had moved out from Buffalo three years earlier. Sterling was eccentric from the start, plastering his face on billboards and publicly hoping for a last-place finish so he could draft Ralph Sampson. During the 1980s, players claimed they would receive their paychecks on Fridays after the banks closed, likely to
prevent them from bouncing. Sterling abruptly moved his franchise to Los Angeles in 1984, receiving a $25 million fine from the NBA before countersuing and getting the penalty sharply reduced. He put the team in the decrepit Los Angeles Sports Arena and turned a tidy profit thanks to a sweetheart lease deal. Despite their location in a glamorous major media market, the Clippers were a destination of last resort for most free agents and an unfortunate detour in their players’ careers. When Ron Harper compared his time with the Clippers to a jail sentence in 1994, Sterling suspended him for a game without pay. Along the way, Sterling and his insurance company paid $2.75 million to settle a federal housing discrimination lawsuit after court proceedings packed with scandalous testimony about Sterling’s opinions of minority tenants in his properties. More salacious tales came out of Baylor’s wrongful termination lawsuit, which was ultimately unsuccessful. Sterling’s alleged recorded comments included a personal attack on Magic Johnson, which came as a shock to the
Dodgers owner and retired Lakers superstar. “I had a friendship with him, so for him to then make these alleged comments about myself … there’s no place in our society for it,” Johnson said of ABC’s pregame show Sunday. After three decades of nearly unrelenting misery and controversy, the strangest thing happened a few years ago: The Clippers got good. Led by Paul and high-flying forward Blake Griffin, Los Angeles has won two straight Pacific Division titles while winning 113 games over the last two regular seasons, easily the two best campaigns in franchise history. And now that the Clippers are worth watching, Sterling might never be allowed to watch them from courtside again. Fan protests and boycotts are expected at Staples Center on Tuesday night when the Clippers resume their playoff series against the Golden State Warriors. Douglas, who had Clippers season tickets for 10 years, has called for an extensive fan boycott. He hopes a public outcry will force the NBA’s other 29 ownership groups to leverage Sterling out of the league.
owner: Runs soccer team from prison Continued from Page B-1 acquisition of a Bulgarian player because of rumors that he was gay. Two years later, after Steaua fans were heard singing homophobic chants, Becali offered this outrageous defense: “There is no excuse for discrimination. Yet, of course, while I love the gays, you must understand: gays cannot be in football teams. The players bathe naked! I love gays, but I’d never employ one. Put one in a team and you’d never win again.” That earned censure elsewhere but did little to diminish his popularity among a
segment of Romania’s population. Becali, not unlike Italy’s Silvio Berlusconi (though more extreme), is a charismatic populist who has deployed his extensive wealth to win the support of a certain conservative base. Some critics see in Becali’s slogans and campaigning gestures to the World War II-era Iron Guard, a Romanian fascist movement. Far-right nationalism is very much alive in parts of Eastern Europe, and Becali’s bigotry sadly echoes wider prejudice. He has made dark comments on what he deemed the infiltration of Jews in Romanian politics. He reportedly fired a Turkish coach
once “for being too Muslim.” He once said women have “no more value” after giving birth. He called an African TV presenter an “ape.” He is attributed with making racist remarks about the Roma — the longmarginalized minority group in Eastern Europe known derogatorily as gypsies — and even ethnic Hungarians living in Romania. And while he has no shortage of critics and opponents, the chances are that Becali will emerge unscathed from his imprisonment, still the owner of Steaua Bucharest as well as one of the world’s most repugnant big mouths.

THE NEW MEXICAN Tuesday, April 29, 2014
Cano: Hopes for good reception Continued from Page B-1 rity and millions of dollars behind making that decision. The flip side is now facing what he left behind. “Hopefully good,” Cano said of the reception he’ll get. “The way that I left New York, it wasn’t a good way. You just go there to play the game and try to beat them.” Cano knows that his comments the day he signed with Seattle still have reverberations, when he said he didn’t feel respected by the Yankees with their contract offer. The Yankees’ top offer was $175 million over seven years. Cano said he didn’t want to go through the contract process again in his mid-to-late 30s and Seattle’s willingness to push the contract out to 10 years sealed the agreement. “I didn’t feel respect. I didn’t get respect from them, and I didn’t see any effort,” Cano said last December. Cano tried to play down over the weekend how the separation from the Yankees happened, saying his focus was on being back in Yankee Stadium and seeing friends and former teammates. “I don’t want to blame anybody. I’m looking forward to going there,” Cano said. Seattle manager Lloyd McClendon had no worries about how Cano would handle his return and the questions that are likely to come. “I’m sure he’s going to be happy to get back to Yankee Stadium, obviously in a different role. He’s a professional. He’ll answer his questions and get ready to play,” McClendon said. “Other than that he’s probably more anxious to get out on the field and play than deal with the media,” he said. ATHLETICS 4, RANGERS 0 In Arlington, Texas, Sonny Gray threw a three-hitter for his first career complete game and the Oakland Athletics beat Texas 4-0 Monday night in Rangers ace Yu Darvish’s shortest outing in the major leagues. Gray (4-1) allowed only three singles while striking out six. Texas got only one runner to third base against the righthander, who threw two wild pitches in the sixth after Robinson Chirinos singled. Darvish (1-1) was gone after 3⅓ innings, pulled after walking No. 9 batter Eric Sogard for the second time. Darvish is winless his last nine home starts. Josh Donaldson had a tworun single in the third, and the A’s made it 4-0 an inning later when Josh Reddick had an RBI triple before coming home on Daric Barton’s sacrifice fly. WHITE SOX 7, RAYS 3 In Chicago, Alejandro De Aza hit a two-run homer and Adam Eaton and Marcus Semien had two-run doubles, leading the White Sox to a comeback victory over Tampa Bay. White Sox slugger Jose Abreu, named American League co-player of the week earlier in the day, went 2 for 4 with a walk and an RBI, his 32nd. But it was the lesser trio that did most of the damage, driving in five of the seven runs. The White Sox (14-13) move above .500 by taking three of four from Tampa. It was Chicago’s third series win this season. Andre Rienzo (2-0) allowed five hits and three runs — two earned — in six innings to get the win. Jake Odorizzi (1-3) allowed eight hits and four runs in 4⅓ innings to get the loss. ANGELS 6, INDIANS 3 In Anaheim, Calif., Mike Trout had a go-ahead RBI single in the eighth inning, and Raul Ibanez added a two-run triple, leading Los Angeles to a victory over Cleveland. Fernando Salas (2-0) got the victory with a hitless eighth inning after relieving starter Tyler Skaggs, and former Indians setup man Joe Smith got three outs for his first save after replacing the ineffective Ernesto Frieri as the Angels’ closer. Justin Masterson (0-1) gave up six runs and seven hits in 7⅓ innings after getting a nodecision in each of his first five starts. The right-hander hasn’t posted a victory since beating the Angels 3-1 last Aug. 21 at the “Big A.”

Brewers outlast Cardinals in 12 innings The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Khris Davis overcame striking out four times earlier in the game and came through with a runscoring triple in Milwaukee 5 the 12th inning to lead the Milwaukee Cardinals 3 Brewers to a 5-3 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Monday night. Davis drove in Jonathan Lucroy, who doubled off Seth Maness (0-2) to start the inning. Mark Reynolds then drove in Davis with a sacrifice fly. Davis, who finished 1 for 6, struck out in the second, fifth, sixth and 10th innings. Zach Duke (2-0) picked up the win with two innings of scoreless relief, and Francisco Rodriguez recorded his 12th save in as many opportunities by getting Jhonny Peralta to fly out with two on to end the game. Milwaukee, which leads the majors with 19 wins, has won four of five and eight of 10. ROCKIES 8, DIAMONDBACKS 5 In Phoenix, Troy Tulowitzki homered, had two doubles and drove in three runs to lead the big-hitting Colorado Rock-
ies to an 8-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks Monday night. Baseball’s best offensive team so far this season, the Rockies roughed up Wade Miley (2-3) for seven extra-base hits in the first six innings, including a pair of homers. Tulowitzki led off the sixth with his sixth homer and Justin Morneau added a two-run shot later in the inning to extend his hitting streak to 12 games. Nolan Arenado had one of Colorado’s six doubles to stretch his hitting streak to a baseball-best 18 games and the Rockies had 12 hits overall. Franklin Morales (3-1) allowed four runs in five innings and LaTroy Hawkins worked a perfect ninth for his eighth straight save. Gerardo Parra homered, Miguel Montero drove in two runs and Paul Goldschmidt had three hits for Arizona. CUBS VS. REDS POSTPONED In Cincinnati, the opening game of a series between Chicago and the Reds was postponed because of rain. The game never began and was called after a 57-minute delay. It wasn’t immediately rescheduled. It was the fourth rain delay in 10 dates this season at Great American Ball Park.
DH Romak, Isotopes beat Salt Lake Designated hitter Jamie Romak delivered a line-drive, bases-loaded single to right field in the bottom of the 12th inning to hand the Albuquerque Isotopes a 4-3 win over Salt Lake in Pacific Coast League action Monday night at a windy Isotopes Park. Romak was 0-for-4 with a walk coming into his final at bat. He worked a 3-1 count before fouling off three straight pitches against Bees reliever Brandon Lyon. On the eighth pitch of the at bat, Romak delivered a clean single to score Miguel Rojas from third for the walk-off win. Albuquerque (14-10) had nine hits in the game. All but one, a 12-inning double by Chone Figgins, were singles. For the third straight game, the Isotopes got a terrific performance by a starting pitcher. Henry Sosa carried a shutout into the eighth inning before Salt Lake (9-16)
pushed three runs across to take a 3-2 lead. Joc Pederson singled and later scored on a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the eighth to ensure extra innings. ’Topes relievers Josh Judy and Jose Dominguez (1-1) combined to go the final 4⅔ innings. Pederson was 3-for-4 with a pair of RBI and two walks while Figgins was 2-4 with his double and two base on balls. The rest of the team combined to reach safely just seven times in 35 plate appearances. Monday’s game was the opener of a 12-game homestand for the Isotopes. They will play each of the next three against Salt Lake, all at 6:35 p.m. Monday’s win keeps Albuquerque four games back of Las Vegas (18-6) in the PCL’s Pacific Southern Division. The New Mexican

Newsmakers Lawfirm announces Clooney’s engagement
George Clooney
Amal Alamuddin
LOS ANGELES — Looks like George Clooney owes Michelle Pfeiffer lots of money. The 52-year-old actor — Hollywood’s most determined bachelor, famous for a litany of fleeting loves — has taken himself off the romantic market, even though he once bet Pfeiffer $100,000 that he’d never marry again. After dating a string of actresses, models, a cocktail waitress and a former professional wrestler, Clooney recently proposed to 36-year-old international law attorney Amal Alamuddin — despite repeated protestations that marriage wasn’t for him. “This fascination with my love life is really something,” he told the British newspaper The Express earlier this year. “I keep saying I’ll never get married again or have children, but people just don’t want to believe me.” News of the engagement was announced by the human-rights law firm where Alamuddin works, Doughty Street Chambers. Alamuddin has advised former U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan, helped ex-Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko and represented WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange. Clooney was previously married, from 1989 to 1993, to actress Talia Balsam. The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Many people consider Mexican American journalist Ruben Salazar a martyr of the Chicano Movement after he was struck by a tear gas projectile fired by a sheriff’s deputy during a 1970 riot in Los Angeles. A new documentary that focuses not on Salazar’s notorious death, but rather his life, shows how he questioned his own cultural identity as he moved in and out of Mexican and American worlds. The nearly hourlong film Ruben Salazar: Man in the Middle, which will air Tuesday on PBS, details the life of the Los Angeles Times journalist through photographs, videos and interviews. The documentary does not address Salazar’s death, which many believe was an intentional killing. Director Phillip Rodriguez pored over eight boxes of documents, photos, and videos filed with a lawsuit against Los Angeles County before reaching the conclusion that Salazar’s death was an accident, but does not mention this in the film. “We didn’t [find] the smoking gun,” Rodriguez told the Associated Press. Salazar was born in Mexico City and raised in El Paso. During the 1960s, he worked as a war correspondent in Vietnam for the Los Angeles Times and later headed the newspaper’s bureau in Mexico City. In 1969, he returned to Los Angeles, where he wrote about the Chicano movement that sought to empower Mexican Americans. After a year, he became news director for KMEX, a Univision station in Los Angeles. In the film, Salazar is shown living a middle-class lifestyle with his wife, Sally, who was white, and shuffling between Anglo and Latino worlds. He lived in Santa Ana, which at the time was a predominantly white, middle-class suburban community in Orange County. “My father led a completely
Anglo life. He was a professional. He was part of the establishment,” said his daughter Stephanie Salazar Cook. Salazar’s voice can be heard in the film through his diary, which his family lent to Rodriguez. In it, Salazar writes of his own cultural duality, confessing that “this has been the dilemma of my life: confusion of what I am.” “Why do I always have to apologize to Americans for Mexicans and to Mexicans for Americans?” he wrote. “There’s no such thing as a real Mexican-American. The hyphen strips both words of meaning.” Salazar died at age 42 on Aug. 29, 1970, in a bar in East Los Angeles, where he had stopped after covering a protest over the high number of Mexican American soldiers killed in the Vietnam War. The demonstration turned violent and sheriff’s deputies suppressed the crowd. One fired a tear gas projectile inside the bar, which struck Salazar. A federal grand jury found the death was an accident, despite speculation by some that Salazar was targeted to be killed. Rodriguez reached the same conclusion after reviewing the materials filed with the lawsuit by the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund. But he said he didn’t dwell on it in the film because he wanted the documentary to focus on Salazar’s life. “His [death] became a metaphor for the struggle of the [Chicano] Movement but in doing so, in some ways they erased him and the nuances of an individual and my job was to rescue the man from mythology. That’s was what I was attempting to do,” Rodriguez said. The documentary, which also features an interview with the deputy who fired the projectile, may not be the last word about Salazar’s death. There are still documents that the FBI and other agencies have not released, which Rodriguez said he is seeking.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX
Man won’t live with his girlfriend
Dear Annie: I have given the past 10 years to a man I love very much. “Cliff” wants to marry me, but I’ve turned him down. The problem is, he wants us to get married and each live in our own houses. We are both 67 years old. Right now, Cliff spends weekends at my place. When I suggest going to his house on the occasional weekend, he says no, claiming he hasn’t had time to clean or there are no groceries or my bed is more comfortable and my TV is bigger, etc., etc. When I suggested we purchase a house together, Cliff said he will never leave his house. Ever. He thinks I should put my stuff in storage and move in with only my clothes. I feel so defeated. Cliff says he loves me, but admits he likes to live by himself. We tried counseling, but he doesn’t like what they say to him. I broke up with him and have even gone out on a few dates, but it only makes me miss him more. Any advice? — Ohio Dear Ohio: Cliff sounds set in his ways and nervous about changes to his environment. He thinks if he keeps his house exactly as it is, his life will stay exactly the same, and he finds great comfort in that. You aren’t going to win this fight without negative repercussions, so decide whether marriage is your goal. There is no reason the two of you cannot continue as you are and take marriage off the table altogether. But if you want to marry and actually live together, Cliff is not your guy. Dear Annie: How can I get my wife to travel? We have been married for 55 years and have not taken any long vacations together. Years ago, I traveled for work and loved it. My wife has never held an outside job. She stayed home to raise our four children and now takes care of our great-grandson. My wife inherited some money
from a relative, but she hoards it for herself. We can afford to travel, but she won’t. Please help me out. I want to see places before I die. — Sam in Atlanta Dear Sam: You will have to see them without your wife. There may be myriad reasons why she doesn’t wish to travel. She could be afraid of flying or of unfamiliar places; she could find travel uninteresting or exhausting; she may not want to leave her great-grandson; she may think she is too old. You could ask whether she would take a short trip to a nearby place — say a weekend in Savannah or a mini-vacation with your greatgrandson — and then perhaps convince her to travel farther afield. If she absolutely refuses, look into going on your own through group tours or traveling with friends. But don’t expect her to use her inheritance money for your pursuits. You’ll have to find another way to pay for this. Dear Annie: Here’s my response to “Not a Lawyer,” whose family told him that lawyers don’t give out free advice: A doctor and a lawyer were walking out of church one morning after services. The doctor couldn’t stop complaining that wherever he went people approached him asking medical questions and wanting free advice. The lawyer explained that he, too, was once the target of people asking him for free advice, but he found a way to end it. “How did you manage it?” asked the doctor. “Oh, that was easy,” the lawyer replied. “I started sending out bills, and soon enough the problem was solved.” The following week, the doctor opened a letter from the lawyer that contained a bill for his services. My wife and I enjoy reading your column every day. — M.S., Montreal, Quebec

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH A partner will offer you a myriad of solutions. The issue is deciding whether you would like to act on any of them. Tonight: Togetherness counts. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Listen to others; they have a lot to share. You could be frustrated when dealing with a personal matter. Tonight: Go with a suggestion. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Pace yourself, and know that you have a lot to do. You could be amazed by what you can accomplish. Tonight: Keep yourself busy. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Encourage a brainstorming session. You could be delighted by the solution that emerges, as well as by the good will that evolves. Tonight: Where the fun is.
Cryptoquip
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH A stop in the boss’s office will tell you that you have a lot of ground to cover. Demands on the homefront also could keep you more than busy. Tonight: At home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You must relax and go with the flow. You could be overwhelmed by everything that is happening and by how much you need to do. Tonight: Make weekend plans. Jacqueline Bigar
