In Texas, promise of oil boom goes bust Investors renege, leaving uncertainty in areas that expected development

By Emily Schmall The Associated Press

SWEETWATER, Texas — Just two years ago, this Texas town known mostly for its annual rattlesnake roundup seemed to be on the brink of a transformation.

Expecting a huge influx of oil workers, local leaders spent tens of millions of dollars to improve the courthouse, build a new law-enforcement center and upgrade the hospital. Hotels, truck stops and housing subdivisions were to follow, all catering to truck drivers and roughnecks.

Sweetwater envisioned becoming a major player in the hydraulicfracturing boom, thanks to its location atop the Cline Shale, once estimated to be the nation’s largest underground petroleum formation.

But those ambitions are fading fast as the plummeting price of oil causes investors to pull back, cutting off the projects that were supposed to pay for a bright new future. Now the town of 11,000 awaits layoffs and budget cuts and defers its dreams.

“Here we are trying to figure out: Is this a six-month problem or is it all over?” said Greg Wortham, head of the Cline Shale Alliance, a private group founded to prepare the region for the oil workers.

Industry observers say what’s happening in the Cline — a 10-county area on the eastern edge of Texas’ Permian Basin oil field — signals a contraction in shale development nationwide.

“Sweetwater and the Cline are like the first domino falling,” said Karr

LONDON — Are we all Charlie now?

“Je suis Charlie” — I am Charlie — was the cry that raced around the world in the wake of the murderous attack on French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. It has been displayed on placards, scrawled as graffiti and shared millions of times on social media.

Soon, though, came a riposte: “Je ne suis pas Charlie” — I am not Charlie — as the tragedy triggered a debate about free speech and its limits, and whether the right to offend should always be used.

For many civil libertarians, the issue was clear. Charlie Hebdo had published crude, rude cartoons that mocked everyone from politicians to the pope to the Prophet Muhammad. It saw its mission as challenging taboos and sacred cows. The best way to honor the 12 killed and stand up for free speech was to print the cartoons again.

The group Index on Censorship ran a selection of Charlie Hebdo cartoons online and called on other publications and websites to follow suit, “to show that fear should not be allowed to stifle free expression.”

Historian Timothy Garton Ash said that if newspapers didn’t publish the images, “the assassins will have won.”

Some websites and newspapers did print the Muhammad cartoons.

But many, especially in the U.S. and Britain, did not, saying they violated editorial policies against willfully giving offense.

Pojoaque Pueblo taps gambling funds to aid students With legal battle over state gaming compact, revenue used to boost graduation rate, pay college tuition could be in jeopardy

By Robert Nott The New Mexican

After George Rivera graduated from Santa Fe High School in 1982, the Pojoaque Pueblo native went to his tribe’s headquarters to see if the pueblo had any college scholarships.

The answer was no.

Rivera went to college anyway, with the help of financial aid, grants and sales of his artwork. He returned to the

NATION&WORLD In brief Bus crash in Pakistan kills 57 KARACHI, Pakistan — A passenger bus crashed into an oil tanker in southern Pakistan early Sunday, killing 57 people with remains charred beyond recognition, officials said.

Dr. Seemi Jamali, who heads the emergency section at Jinnah Post Graduate Medical Center in Karachi where the remains were brought, said they had received 57 bodies. Four people were also injured, she said.

She said the hospital would have to do DNA tests to identify the victims.

The Minister of Transportation for Sindh Province, Mir Mumtaz Hussain Jakhrani, said the crash happened when the passenger bus hit an oil tanker early Sunday about 31 miles outside of Karachi.

A relative of one of the victims told The Associated Press that his sister and two uncles and all their families were on board the bus.

The bus was completely burned on the inside from the fire.

Zimmerman arrested in Florida MIAMI — Florida authorities say George Zimmerman, whose acquittal of murdering an unarmed black teen sparked a national debate on race and selfdefense laws, has been arrested for allegedly throwing a wine bottle at his girlfriend.

The Seminole County Sheriff’s Office says the 31-year-old Zimmerman was arrested for aggravated assault at his home in Lake Mary about 10 p.m. Friday.

Zimmerman was released on a $5,000 bond Saturday afternoon.

At a court appearance earlier Saturday, he was ordered to avoid contact with the woman, who was not identified.

Judge John Galluzzo gave few details of the incident, but said a wine bottle was involved and that the alleged assault happened at Zimmerman’s home.

Boko Haram uses girl as bomber A girl perhaps no more than 10 years old detonated powerful explosives concealed under her veil at a crowded northern Nigeria market Saturday, killing as many as 20 people and wounding many more. The blast inflicted devastating damage on shoppers at the Monday Market in Maiduguri, the shopping hub in a city that is at the heart of the Boko Haram insurgency. The explosion, witnessed by dozens of people, represented a new tactic in the Islamists’ campaign with their decision to use perhaps their youngest-ever suicide bomber.

Tanning still popular despite many warnings Incident rate of melanoma in young women alarms experts

By Sabrina Tavernise The New York Times

TEQUESTA, Fla. n their way home from an SAT tutoring session, the Van Dresser twins, Alexandra and Samantha, 17, popped into Tan Fever & Spa, a small familyowned salon tucked into a strip mall between a bar and a supermarket.

They wanted to get tan before the prom, and the salon was the perfect combination of fast and cheap: Twenty minutes in a tanning bed cost just $7.

“It’s the quickness of the tanning bed,” Alexandra explained one afternoon last year. “We don’t have time to lay out on a beach.”

Indoor tanning might seem like a fashion that faded with the ’80s, but it remains a persistent part of American adolescence, popular spring, summer and fall but especially in winter, when bodies are palest. Salons with names like Eternal Summer and Tan City dot strip malls across the country, promising prettiness and, in some cases, better health, despite a growing body of evidence that links indoor tanning to skin cancer.

Here in the Sunshine State, there are more tanning salons than McDonald’s restaurants, CVS stores or Bank of America branches, according to a 2014 study by University of Miami researchers.

For decades, researchers saw indoor tanning as little more than a curiosity. But a review of the scientific evidence published last year estimated that tanning beds account for as many as 400,000 cases of skin cancer in the United States each year, including 6,000 cases of melanoma, the deadliest form.

And clinicians are concerned about the incidence rate of melanoma in women younger than 40, which has risen by a third since the early 1990s, according to data from the National Cancer Institute.

“We’re seeing younger and younger patients coming to us with skin cancer,” said Dr. Eleni Linos, assistant professor of dermatology at the University of California, San Francisco. “That is a new phenomenon.”

As such worrying signs have accumulated, tanning has emerged as a serious public health

concern. Last year, the surgeon general called on Americans to reduce their exposure to the sun and tanning beds to prevent skin cancer, and the Food and Drug Administration invoked its most serious risk warning, lifting tanning beds from a category that included Band-Aids to that of potentially harmful medical devices. The Obama administration’s 2010 health care law imposed a little-noticed 10 percent tax on tanning salons.

And more than 40 states now have some sort of restriction on the use of tanning salons by minors, according to AIM at Melanoma, an advocacy and research group based in California, the first state to adopt a ban on minors in 2011. At least nine states plus the District of Columbia (pending congressional approval) have passed such bans.

For the first time, new federal data has documented a decline in the use of indoor tanning among teenage girls, dropping to about a fifth of them in 2013, from a quarter in 2009. Gery P. Guy Jr., a researcher with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention who analyzed the data, which was released in December, attributed the decline to greater awareness and tougher laws.

Even so, public health experts say tanning remains a persistent problem, especially among white teenage girls, a full third of whom say they have tanned indoors, more than the share who smoke cigarettes.

There were about 14,000 salons across the country as of early 2014, according to John Overstreet, executive director of the Indoor Tanning Association. That does not count tanning beds in gyms and beauty parlors. The number is down about a fifth in recent years, he said, as the recession eroded young women’s disposable income and the tax imposed under the new health care law squeezed salons’ profits.

Overstreet argues that there is no science that conclusively links moderate, nonburning ultraviolet ray exposure to melanoma. His organization’s mission, according to its website, is “to protect the freedom of individuals to acquire a suntan.”

“The folks who don’t like this industry are exaggerating the risks,” he said, adding: “It’s just like anything in life. If you get too much of it, it’s bad for you.”

WASHINGTON — Adjusting medications before someone gets sick enough to visit the doctor. Updating outside specialists so one doctor’s prescription doesn’t interfere with another’s.

Starting this month, Medicare will pay primary care doctors a monthly fee to better coordinate care for the most vulnerable seniors — those with multiple chronic illnesses — even if they don’t have a face-toface exam. The goal is to help patients stay healthier between doctor visits, and avoid pricey hospitals and nursing homes.

“We all need care coordination. Medicare patients need it more than ever,” said Sean Cavanaugh, deputy administrator at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

About two-thirds of Medicare beneficiaries have two or more chronic conditions, such as diabetes, heart disease or kidney disease. Their care is infamously fragmented. They tend to visit numerous doctors for different illnesses.

Too often, no one oversees their overall health — making sure multiple treatments don’t mix badly, that X-rays and other tests aren’t repeated just because one doctor didn’t know another already had ordered them, and that nothing falls between the cracks.

Medicare’s new fee, which is about $40 a month per qualified patient, marks a big policy shift. Usually, the program pays for services in the doctor’s office.

“We’re hoping to spur change, getting physicians to be much more willing to spend time working on the needs of these patients without necessitating the patient to come into the office,” Cavanaugh told The Associated Press.

To earn the new fee, doctors must come up with a care plan for qualified patients, and spend time each month on such activities as coordinating their care with other health providers and monitoring their medications. Also, patients must have a way to reach someone with the care team who can access their health records 24 hours a day, for proper evaluation of an after-hours complaint.

Many primary care physicians already do some of that.

“Quite honestly, I just didn’t get paid for it,” said Dr. Robert Wergin, president of the American Academy of Family Physicians.

Wergin estimates he spends about two hours a day doing such things as calling elderly patients who have a hard time visiting his office in rural Milford, Neb. Say someone with heart failure reports a little weight gain, a possible sign of fluid buildup but not enough to make the patient call for an appointment.

Wergin might adjust the medication dose over the phone, and urge an in-person exam in a few days if that doesn’t solve the problem.

The new fee could enable physicians to hire extra nurses or care managers to do more of that preventive work, Wergin said. Patients must agree to care coordination; the fee is subject to Medicare’s standard deductible and coinsurance. Wergin plans to explain it as, “This is how we’re going to hopefully manage your illnesses better at home.”

But for some patients, care coordination can require a lot more work.

It’s like being a quarterback, Dr. Matthew Press wrote in the New England Journal of Medicine last summer in describing the 80 days between diagnosing a man’s liver cancer and his surgery. The internist, while at Weill Cornell Medical College, sent 32 emails and had eight phone calls with the patient’s 11 other physicians. That’s something CMS’s Cavanaugh said a doctor in private practice would find hard to squeeze in.

The chronic care management fee is one of multiple projects Medicare has underway in hopes of strengthening primary care, and in turn save money. For example, about 500 practices in a demonstration project involving Medicare and private insurers are receiving monthly payments, averaging $20 a patient, to improve care management and coordination for everyone, not just those at high risk.

Clashes in Mexico call government strategy into question Vigilantes, federal forces trade blame over cartel infiltration

Mourners embrace during the funeral of slain 18-yearold Antonio Sánchez Valencia in Apatzingán, Michoacán state, Mexico, Thursday. Confrontations in Apatzingán began Tuesday when federal forces moved in to take control of city hall.

By Alberto Arce The Associated Press

COLONIAS, Mexico — New clashes between vigilante groups and government forces in Mexico’s violent western state of Michoacán are calling into question the strategy of a federal commissioner appointed a year ago to restore order.

Top cartel leaders have been captured or killed, and President Enrique Peña Nieto’s administration has held up Michoacán as a success in battling drug violence. But now former vigilantes are fighting with government forces and each other. All sides are accused of being infiltrated by drug traffickers trying to take over from the Knights Templar, which controlled commerce, politics and daily life in much of the state until self-defense groups rose up in February 2013.

In the most recent bloodshed, nine civilians died Tuesday during federal operations in the community of Apatzingán.

One was hit by a car while fleeing from federal forces seizing the city hall from armed civilians, and eight were killed later after they allegedly opened fire on a federal police convoy, said the federal commissioner, Alfredo Castillo. He first said they were killed by the army, then by federal police. Now the government investigation is leaning toward a third version — that six of the dead were killed by friendly fire, according to an official who spoke Saturday. The official, who could not be named because he was not authorized to speak to the press, said the government would give more details on Monday.

Witnesses and survivors disputed all of the official versions. They told The Associated Press the dead were former selfdefense group members who were angry that federal police had arrested 44 of their comrades, and that the protesters were armed only with sticks.

Those who died came out of their trucks shouting that they

were unarmed, witnesses said.

“They screamed, ‘Don’t shoot, don’t shoot, don’t shoot,’ many times,” said a neighbor, one of six people who spoke on condition of anonymity, either out of fear of reprisal or because they were not authorized to speak to the press.

Carlos Vázquez, who during the shooting was in a civilian convoy following the federal police, said former vigilante group members are disillusioned with the government. As vigilantes and then rural police forces, the government had them do its “dirty work” rounding up cartel members but later demanded they turn in their weapons, he said.

“We don’t know what’s going to happen,” Vázquez said near a mural of a gangster-like character with a gun, stacks of dollars and a brick of cocaine, with the Grim Reaper at each shoulder.

“We don’t want the criminals … but we don’t want the government either. We’re tired of their repression, of living this way.”

Castillo was brought in to restore peace in Michoacán, which was wracked for years by drug-related violence and then the vigilantes’ armed uprising.

The government subsequently captured or killed most key Knights Templar cartel leaders, except for the top one, Servando “La Tuta” Gómez, who

has leaked videos of politicians, journalists and others collaborating with him.

Some have accused Castillo and the government of cutting a deal with Gómez, as the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party was known to do in the past. But officials vehemently deny that.

Others criticize Castillo’s for using the self-defense groups as public security when they refused to disarm. He turned them into a rural police force, including a special group to search for Gomez. But some self-defense groups remained active and some of the rural forces starting fighting each other, including in a December clash that killed 11 people.

Michoacán Sen. Luisa María Calderón, who is expected to run for governor for the rival National Action Party, said Castillo’s policies have been erratic.

“You can’t resolve disorder with more disorder,” she said.

“The state has the monopoly over force, and you can’t delegate it to groups of whatever order,” she told Milenio television.

Castillo said that organized crime no longer controls Michoacán and that the recent clashes are “social conflicts” over territory, not a sign of deteriorating security. He said all but a few communities are quiet now.

Castillo said Tuesday’s violence came after federal forces took control of the city hall in Apatzingán, hub of the conflictive farming region called the Tierra Caliente, or Hot Land.

The city offices were held since around Dec. 20 by about 100 civilians protesting an increase in electricity costs, and the government requiring that they turn in their arms, according to the families of the dead.

Castillo said the protesters’ demands and identities were unclear, but authorities moved in because they had guns. Federal police and soldiers detained 44 people with 13 rifles or shotguns and seized 23 vehicles.

Protesters who escaped said they called the nearby community of Colonias for backup and regrouped in Apatzingán, arming themselves only with sticks.

A surveillance video Castillo

released shows them beating a federal police car with their clubs.

Vázquez said officers fired directly into a white pickup and shot at a black SUV carrying self-defense group leader Miguel Ángel Madrigal and his family.

The AP later counted 23 bullet holes in the white pickup, including through the windshield. Three passengers were killed, according to the government’s tally, and others wounded.

Five people in the SUV died.

They had multiple gunshot wounds and were huddled together under the truck, according to photographs that neighbors took of the scene and that family members authenticated. A rifle lay with the victims of the white truck, along with three ammunition magazines that don’t match the

weapon. In another photo of the scene, the bodies and position of the rifle were changed.

Witnesses said no shots were fired from the two trucks, though Castillo said spent shell casings were found from ammunition not used by federal police.

Neighbors said they surrounded police after the shooting, complaining about the officers’ actions. Investigators told mortuary employees to remove the bodies quickly so the crowd would disperse, said a worker who wasn’t willing to be quoted by name for fear of reprisals.

“They didn’t take witness statements, measurements, nothing,” he said.

Two days later, a baseball cap was still in the bed of the white truck, bearing a bullet hole, blood and a piece of scalp. It was not collected as evidence.

Bust: Success in area was not guaranteed Continued from Page A-1 Ingham, an Amarillo-based economist focused on Texas energy. “Cline Shale development and all of the marvelous benefits are in the process of being significantly interrupted.”

Sue Young, economic development director in neighboring Mitchell County, agreed: “The frenzy is gone.”

Back in 2012, Oklahoma City-based Devon Energy triggered a flurry of leasing activity when it projected that the Cline held 30 billion barrels of oil, dwarfing both the Bakken Shale formation in North Dakota and the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas combined.

Wortham, at the time Sweetwater’s mayor, founded the alliance in the town 225 miles west of Dallas. Major projects soon began to take shape.

The county courthouse got a $4 million face-lift. A $12 million law enforcement center is nearly finished. The hospital is set to receive $31 million in upgrades, and an extended-stay hotel is under construction.

Sweetwater and surrounding Nolan County are no strangers to the oil industry’s boom-and-bust cycle. They turned to wind energy in 2001. Today, the nearby mesas have one of the world’s largest wind farms, generating abundant electricity and giving local officials millions in tax revenue to put toward new development.

But no one foresaw the steep oil decline of 2014. As recently as June, the University of Texas at San Antonio projected that the Cline Shale would bring $20 billion to the region by 2022.

These days, even the biggest oil-industry boosters are nervously eyeing the partially finished hotels, truck stops and mostly vacant industrial park, wondering if they are doomed to fail.

Devon, the largest leaseholder in the Cline, started letting its leases expire in September. Asked whether Devon had revised its earlier projections, spokesman John Parrotto would say only that the shale “isn’t a focus” for the company.

There was no mention of the Cline in Devon’s third-quarter financial report filed in November with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Two months earlier, Devon’s financial partner, Japan’s Sumitomo Corp., took a $1.55 billion writedown on its Cline investment.

Apache Corp., the second-largest leaseholder in the Cline, also ignored the shale in its third-quarter report, despite earlier touting it as possibly the largest oil field in the nation.

“If anybody saw this as money in the bank, they were sadly mistaken,” said Barclay’s analyst Thomas Driscoll.

Success was never guaranteed. Drilling in the Cline is more complicated and expensive because of the depths of the

formation, estimated at 10,000 feet.

Nonetheless, some of the Cline’s oil explorers say they are undaunted by the falling prices.

Laredo Petroleum Corp. in Tulsa, Okla., cut its overall capital expenditure budget for 2015 in half, solely focusing on its wells in the Cline.

“We continue to see good economics,” spokesman Ron Hagood said.

And Sweetwater remains a busy way station for truck traffic to the Permian Basin, some 150 miles west. The BNSF Railway has invested $45 million in the Sweetwater spur that connects the West Texas oil fields to Houston refineries.

A new Sunoco pipeline snakes through Meisha Hand Adame’s Sweetwater ranch past a substation, transmission lines and a cluster of wind turbines.

“The land costs much more than the income would make me farming,” says 23-year-old Adame, who inherited the property in May when her father died.

Without the infrastructure, “there’d be no way I could afford to keep it,” she said.

Still, Chris Velez, the head bartender at Buck’s Bar-B-Que in Sweetwater, worries that the restaurant’s $500,000 addition will turn out to be worthless.

“The gas prices are trickling down and hitting us here,” he said. Surveying the empty dance floor, he added, “Hardly anyone comes in here anymore.”

Shelter: Public meetings later this month Continued from Page A-1 on a pretty regular basis to eat,” Madsen said. “I’ve been doing that for two and a half years.”

The city-owned facility, housed in the old Pete’s Pets building, doesn’t just feed the hungry but undoubtedly saves lives. Before it opened in the summer of 2010, 49 people had died of exposure in Santa Fe following two brutal winters between 2004 and 2006.

But the facility also has galvanized the community as nearby residents and business owners question whether it’s the best location for a homeless shelter. While the facility is located along a commercial corridor, there are several residences within walking distance on Harrison Road, and homeowners say they have grown tired of the trash, traffic, loitering and other problems that come with having a homeless shelter as a neighbor.

Neighbors and others will have an opportunity to voice their concerns during a series of public meetings later this month. When the City Council voted to renew Interfaith’s lease, councilors asked for stakeholder meetings to help form a memorandum of understanding with the shelter that would address neighbors’ concerns, among other things.

The first two meetings will be at 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. Jan. 22 at the barn in Frenchy’s Field Park, said Terrie Rodriguez, director of the city’s Youth and Family Services Division.

Rodriguez plans to schedule a third meeting, but she said the date and location have not yet been confirmed.

Neighbors say they plan to attend the meetings. But they also say they’re tired of meetings that don’t produce results.

They say they have been vilified as anti-homeless, when in fact they care about the homeless. They just want the city to find a facility that is big enough to provide homeless people the services they need and isn’t so close to residences.

“Our main concern is the way the shelter is being run,” said Lorraine Romero, who is among the shelter’s closest neighbors. “It needs to be in a bigger place.”

The size of the shelter is not the only problem. Except when it’s serving lunches or holding other events to provide resources for the indigent, the shelter usually doesn’t open its doors until 6 p.m. for overnight stays. The homeless have to be out by 6 a.m. the next morning.

But many of the people who rely on the shelter congregate around it throughout the day, often roaming nearby streets.

This winter season, about 100 people have been staying overnight at the shelter, which has a nighttime occupancy load of 123 people, Fire Marshal Rey Gonzales said.

“This year, I’ve done two checks, and last year I think we went out there three or four times after we got some calls,” Gonzales said. “The times I have gone out there, they have been in compliance.”

Madsen said it’s no surprise neighbors are complaining, especially about loitering and trash.

“There is no 24-hour open place for the homeless in Santa Fe,” Madsen said. “Now, most major towns over, say, 35,000 people who have homeless provide this, but because there is nothing for them to do [in Santa Fe], nowhere for them to go, they’re hanging out and sleeping in the library. They’re drinking in the library. They’re shooting up drugs in every backstreet corner they can find, which is why there’s needles and bottles everywhere.

That’s why.”

The homeless wouldn’t be bothering the neighbors “if they had somewhere to be that was actually open during the day to make up for the slack of this shelter, which … falls short of every city I’ve seen,” he added. “It’s the absolute worst.”

Madsen said he does believe the shelter does a good job of providing services with the resources it has. But a lack of funding prevents Interfaith from being staffed full-time.

“Right now, we don’t have the coverage,” said Joe JordanBerenis, executive director of the shelter.

“On days that are really cold, we’re bringing people into the building to keep them warm, even though we don’t have the coverage,” he said.

Brad Furry, owner of Furry’s Buick GMC across the street from the shelter, said one of his biggest concerns is the trash that guests leave behind.

“It ranges from small trash — forks and knives and paper towels and those kinds of things — to excessive amounts of alcohol bottles … to needles and to feces. That’s the other extreme,” he said.

Jordan-Berenis said Interfaith tries to clean up the trash.

“One of the people we have cleans up down the block and around the shelter and across the street on our neighbors’ property down to the tile place,” he said. “The weekends are problematic because there is a gap in coverage on Saturday and Sunday.”

Loitering also is a problem, Furry said.

Madsen said the shelter isn’t too strict with its guests.

“Discipline is a little slack,

but they’re trying to let drunk people not die, so they can only push so much discipline,” he said.

Furry said he doesn’t know if potential customers have walked away from his dealership because of the problems stemming from the shelter.

“It certainly has had some impact on them,” he said.

“When customers walk inside the door and say, ‘You have a person that’s asleep or passed out or even perhaps dead in between your cars out front,’ it’s not as encouraging to do business as it could be. However, I don’t know if it’s ever actually caused us to lose a sale.”

Even when the shelter is open, the homeless hang out outside its gates. At 6:30 p.m. on a recent evening, a few people were standing in the street talking to people inside cars who had pulled up and were blocking traffic. Three hours later, more people were hanging outside the doors.

Two men were huddled outside the gates on the ground under blankets or sleeping bags, smoking cigarettes.

Some of Santa Fe’s homeless won’t stay at the shelter, which they still call Pete’s Pets.

Dale Riggs and Ken B. Carvin, both 57, who have been homeless in Santa Fe for more than a decade, say they prefer to camp, even in the winter.

They say there are too many mentally ill and drunk people at the shelter who are constantly asking for money, cigarettes or drinks.

“I’d never go to a shelter,” Riggs said. “I couldn’t take the people that are in them.”

“Ninety percent of them are psychologically inept,” added Carvin, a carver who hangs out downtown.

Exactly how many homeless people there are in Santa Fe remains unknown.

The New Mexico Coalition to End Homelessness conducts a biannual “point-in-time” count of the homeless every other year as a requirement for receiving federal funding. The next count will begin Jan. 27.

The last time the count was conducted, in 2013, 383 homeless people were counted in Santa Fe and 2,819 statewide.

But the count “always results in an undercount,” coalition Director Hank Hughes said.

“There are at least that number and more.”

Riggs said it’s mostly the “snowbirds” — homeless people who are passing through, often on their way to warmer climates — who pack the shelter every night. He said the socalled snowbirds are also most likely the ones stealing things in the neighborhoods around the shelter. He said these traveling people steal from the homeless camps, too.

Riggs and Carvin sat together soaking up the sun Thursday afternoon on a bench outside the downtown library, which is a popular daytime hangout for homeless people when the shelter is closed.

“This is one of the few places people can come, and unless they are outrageous, they’re not hassled,” library Director Patricia Hodapp said.

“They can use our facilities, they can sit in a comfortable chair, they can read the newspapers, and they’re not hassled.

Try to think of anyplace else in Santa Fe. They can’t go to an art museum. They have to pay. You go to a rec center, you have to pay. There is no really democratic institution except the public library that’s left anymore in most places in the country. We take this really seriously.”

Two years ago, Hodapp said, a staffer compiled a list of resources for homeless people, such as shelters, and places to get food and showers, that is handed out to patrons and posted on the library’s bulletin board and website.

“We see a lot of homeless people,” she said. “Librarians are notoriously on the front line to serve.”

Hodapp said librarians across the U.S. noticed an increase in need for services for the homeless “when people with mental health issues were put out of centers and … put on the street.

This was years ago, and libraries knew it immediately. These people had no place to go. And it was really hard.”

Hodapp said the San Francisco Main Library hired a fulltime social worker to provide assistance to patrons in need in that city three years ago.

“I don’t know if they are still doing it,” she said. “It has been brought up by other libraries, but we don’t really have the money.”

The library is only a BandAid, however, and for the few among the homeless who find daytime shelter there, many more are left wandering the streets — often near the shelter.

“I’m going to fight until it’s gone because one day my beautiful daughter is going to become a teenager, and I’ll be damned if she’s going to be harassed by the homeless people the way that I am,” Guerrero-Jones said.

Madsen, who said he chooses to be homeless, is sympathetic to neighbors’ concerns.

“I wouldn’t want that situation near my children,” he said.

“If the facility was adequate, the problem would not exist,” he said. “That’s all there is to it.”

Tutors work with students last month through a program in Pojoaque Pueblo’s Education Department. Gambling revenues help the tribe provide such services. JANE PHILLIPS/THE NEW MEXICAN

Funds: Graduation rate up to about 85% Continued from Page A-1 younger members, who have traditionally lagged behind their non-Indian peers in scholastic achievement.

Pojoaque leaders credit the scholarship program with encouraging students to graduate from high school and go to college. The tribe’s graduation rate today is about 85 percent, 10 percent higher than the statewide average and a big leap from the pueblo’s 50 percent graduation average 10 years ago, which is close to today’s national average for Native American students — 51 percent, according to Diplomas Count, an annual study by Education Week.

Since 2006, when the pueblo began keeping track of its scholarship students, 44 have earned college degrees, a considerable achievement considering the tribe only graduates about six high school students each year.

The initiative, said Rivera, who recently stepped down as the pueblo’s governor, has switched the “conversation from ‘Am I going to graduate high school?’ to ‘What college will I attend?’ ” “They can now see beyond high school and into college, and that is exciting,” Rivera added.

Pojoaque is one of several pueblos in the state that each year funnel gambling revenue into education to create more opportunities for Native students.

“I don’t know if the public gives it much thought,” said Maria Elena Chacón, case manager for education and training at Taos Pueblo, who formerly worked in the Education Department of the Eight Northern Indian Pueblos Council. “People are more likely to pay attention to changes and funding for the New Mexico Legislative Lottery Scholarships. A casino on tribal lands isn’t associated so much with revenue and education.”

Pojoaque’s Education Department sets aside $1.5 million each year to fund college scholarships, all from gaming money, according to Felicia Rivera, head of the pueblo’s education program.

That revenue could be in jeopardy. The pueblo’s compact with the state expires next summer and is the subject of a court battle.

In December 2013, the pueblo sued the state, arguing that Gov. Susana Martinez’s administration proposed collecting an illegal tax — a percentage of gambling revenues — without giving the pueblo anything in return. The lawsuit also said the administration wants to restrict tribal gambling operations and increase the amount of money the tribe must give the state.

The pueblo, which operates two large gambling operations north of Santa Fe, tried negotiating a compact with the federal government instead, but the state sued the Interior Department, saying Pojoaque was trying to illegally supplant the state’s right to reach its own deal.

A U.S. District Court judge agreed, and both the pueblo and the U.S. Department of the Interior have appealed.

Representatives from the education departments of other New Mexico pueblos, including Isleta, Sandia and Taos, also say their graduation rates have gone up since they have invested in both K-12 public education and in college scholarship programs.

Those three pueblos also offer college scholarships on an as-needed basis, though none of them give 100 percent to every student, as Pojoaque does.

Pojoaque Pueblo students who take advantage of the full ride graduate debt-free at a time when national reports indicate the average college student debt is about $30,000.

Nicholas Latterell, 25, who is now working on a master’s degree in educational psychol-

ogy at the University of Minnesota, said the Pojoaque Pueblo scholarship let him attend school without having to work to pay bills. “I could really focus on school,” he said by phone recently. “And being able to graduate without debt was huge.”

Pojoaque students must apply for the scholarships and maintain a 2.0 grade-point average.

They must also agree to random drug testing. If they fail a drug test, their eligibility for the scholarship ends. Felicia Rivera, the pueblo’s education director, monitors students’ progress semester by semester.

Students who start to lose ground are connected with teachers and tutors, and must provide documentation to show they are doing extra work and making progress to maintain a 2.0, Felicia Rivera said. Students must also turn in midterm grades and other assessments given to them along the way.

“We do everything we can to stay on top of them and keep them in college,” Felicia Rivera said.

In the 10 years she has been on the job, she said, the pueblo has only had to end tuition for two students for academic reasons.

The pueblo also offers scholarships for its students to attend private K-12 schools. This year, 43 are attending private schools, including several in Santa Fe. Waldorf Elementary School sixth-grader Josiah Enriquez is one of those kids. He said he is getting a better education in the private setting, which offers him more academic and artistic choices, including woodworking and circus arts. He is aware of the pueblo’s college scholarship and plans to apply for it. He hopes to become a pilot.

His older sister, Maria Enriquez, also attends Waldorf.

Her grades have improved — A’s and B’s, she said — since she left the Pojoaque public school system a year and a half ago. “I was kind of a bully and didn’t do my homework,” she said. “Being in a private school has taught me to be more respectful to my parents and teachers. I’m happy that the pueblo is putting in the effort to put me in a private school and pay my tuition. They care about the kids and want them to get a good education.”

She, too, is aware of the college scholarship and is counting on it being there for her: “Otherwise, I’d have to help my parents save money for me to go to college, which means I would have to go to work on the pueblo.”

The pueblo also provides free after-school tutoring for 20 to 40 of its students every day at the senior citizen center. There, seven adult tutors, all of whom get paid, help kids in grades K-12 with reading and math.

“Just the fact that there’s someone there paying attention to where the kids are at in school helps them get past the hurdles they encounter in school,” Felicia Rivera said.

The pueblo’s educational program also includes an early childhood center and Tewa instruction for its students.

Other pueblos, including Isleta, also provide Native language opportunities for their students.

But the college scholarship program is the heart of the operation at Pojoaque.

This month, the pueblo’s former lieutenant governor, Joseph Talachy replaced George Rivera as governor of the pueblo. Rivera said Talachy is equally committed to sustaining the scholarship program.

“The council is the ultimate power and authority in the tribe, and they have seen such a turnaround in where our youth are going in terms of their future,” he said. “Our intention is to keep supporting the education department with gaming revenues.”

House battle nudges caucus further right Speaker Boehner embraces tough immigration plan

By Charles Babington The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Diehard House conservatives bungled a coup against House Speaker John Boehner but now look like winners, pushing Republicans farther right.

Rather than punish and isolate those who opposed him as leader, Boehner surprised many on Friday by embracing an immigration plan that’s tougher than lawmakers had expected. It would block President Barack Obama’s recent limits on deportations and undo protections for immigrants brought to the United States illegally as children.

The House is heading toward a vote Wednesday.

As the rebellious hardliners celebrated, mainstream Republicans said Boehner’s decision probably portends firmly conservative approaches to other issues.

That would complicate life for some of the more moderate Senate Republicans and ensure fierce battles with the Democratic president.

Florida Rep. Richard Nugent, one of the 25 House Republicans who voted to oust Boehner, praised the Boehner-backed immigration plan.

The dissidents have com-

plained that Boehner, R-Ohio, is too willing to compromise with Obama and Democrats.

But rather than seeing the rebels frozen out during private GOP discussions on immigration strategy, Nugent said, “this time it’s a very collaborative approach.”

Equally enthusiastic was Rep. Louie Gohmert, a Texas Republican sometimes portrayed by Democrats as the most unreasonable of conservative purists.

“One of the things that has really been lacking for the last eight years is having more input like we’ve finally gotten in this bill,” Gohmert said.

Some Boehner allies had urged him to punish and isolate Gohmert and the other rebels.

But that approach might permanently antagonize tea partyleaning Republicans and “force Boehner into making more con-

cessions” to Democrats to pass bills, “which is the last thing in the world we want,” said GOP Rep. Kenny Marchant of Texas, shortly after Tuesday’s leadership vote.

By Friday, Marchant was reassured. “The focus now is to solicit input and try to bring them into the fold,” he said.

Boehner’s agreement to nudge his caucus rightward, especially on immigration, could cause headaches for Republican presidential candidates needing Hispanic votes. It also will complicate life for Senate Republicans, who now hold the majority but generally cannot pass bills without at least six Democratic votes, thanks to filibuster powers.

The approach, Cole said, “takes a lot of political pressure off House Republicans.”

One reason that 25 Republicans

voted against Boehner, he said Friday, “was because they didn’t believe we were going to do exactly what we’re doing today” on immigration.

At issue is a $39.7 billion spending bill to keep the Department of Homeland Security funded beyond February.

The House version would block Obama’s November order granting temporary relief from deportation to about 4 million immigrants who are in the country illegally. Most have been here at least five years and have children who are citizens or legal permanent residents.

In a surprise to many, the House GOP proposal also would reverse a 2012 program, called Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, that removed deportation threats to certain immigrants brought illegally to the U.S. as children.

Speech: Paper has not been silenced Continued from Page A-1 The Associated Press has decided not to run the images, explaining, in part, that “AP tries hard not to be a conveyor belt for images and actions aimed at mocking or provoking people on the basis of religion, race or sexual orientation. … While we run many photos that are politically or socially provocative, there are areas verging on hate speech and actions where we feel it is right to be cautious.”

Alan Rusbridger, editor of the United Kingdom’s Guardian, said “we completely defend Charlie Hebdo’s ethos and values and the right to offend in the way that they did.”

But he said that “there are some very offensive [cartoons] that the Guardian would never in the normal run of events publish” — and it would be wrong to change in response to terrorism.

Others point out that in all societies freedom of speech has its limits. In France, several people have been arrested this week for glorifying the killings on social media. And even staunch defenders of free speech may be alarmed that #Jesuiskouachi — identifying with the brothers who were the assailants in the attack — has become a Twitter hashtag.

Some who condemned the killings used the “I am not Charlie” hashtag to express unease at what they saw as publishing hurtful, inflammatory and sometimes racist images. Charlie Hebdo once depicted a black government minister as a monkey, and in 2012, amid an uproar over an anti-Muslim film, the magazine published drawings of Muhammad naked and in demeaning poses.

Such images offend many ordinary Muslims and, some argued, target a community that already feels beleaguered in France: under-represented in the corridors of power, overrepresented in prison, and stigmatized by a law against religious displays that bans headscarves in schools and face-covering veils in public.

American cartoonist Joe Sacco drew a cartoon in response to the attacks in which he mused that “lines on paper are a weapon, and satire is meant to cut to the bone. But whose bone?”

“Though tweaking the noses of Muslims might be as permissible as it is now believed to be dangerous, it has never struck me as anything other than a vapid way to use the pen,” Sacco wrote.

Charlie Hebdo’s supporters say such criticism misses crucial context: The newspaper’s humor stands in a tradition that mocks hypocrisy and punctures pretension without fear or favor. French journalist Anne-Elisabeth Moutet described it as “rude, obscene, irreverent, and anti-religious … the last true heir of the French revolutionary and republican traditions.”

Amid the debate, some Muslims and others embraced a third hashtag: “Je suis Ahmed,” in tribute to Ahmed Merabet, the Muslim policeman shot dead by the attackers.

Lebanese writer Dyab Abou Jahjah tweeted: “I am not Charlie, I am Ahmed the dead cop. Charlie ridiculed my faith and culture and I died defending his right to do so. #JesuisAhmed.”

Julien Casters, a magazine editor in Morocco who was the first to tweet #JesuisAhmed, said the slogan is popular “because a number of Muslims felt stigmatized by the attack.” “[Sharing] this hashtag is a way of saying, ‘We are Muslims and we are also victims of the religious fanaticism,’ ” he told the AP in an email.

As the free speech debate rages, one thing is clear: Charlie Hebdo hasn’t been silenced.

Individuals, media organizations and the French government have donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to keep the newspaper going. Before the attack, Charlie Hebdo sold fewer than 100,000 copies a week. The next issue will have a print run of 1 million.

Paris on high alert ahead of giant unity rally

By Dan Bilefsky and Maïa de la Baume The New York Times

PARIS — Prime Minister Manuel Valls declared Saturday that France was at war with radical Islam after the harrowing sieges that led to the deaths of three gunmen and four hostages the day before.

New details emerged about the bloody final confrontations, and security forces remained on high alert.

“It is a war against terrorism, against jihadism, against radical Islam, against everything that is aimed at breaking fraternity, freedom, solidarity,” Valls said during a speech in Évry, south of Paris.

The authorities started the day hunting for the companion of one of the killers, only to learn later she appeared to have fled to Turkey and then probably to Syria days before Wednesday’s initial assault in Paris. The police had suspected that the woman — Hayat Boumeddiene, 26, the girlfriend of Amedy Coulibaly, believed to be one of the gunmen — might have played a role in one or more of the attacks.

“We are 99 percent sure that she traveled to Syria from Urfa,” said a Turkish intelligence official, referring to a city in southern Turkey. “There is no evidence that suggests she was involved in the terrorist attacks in France this week.”

France remained on edge a day after security forces killed Coulibaly, who the

be there, and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel.

On Saturday, hundreds of thousands marched in Paris, Toulouse, Nice and other cities in a show of solidarity, and rallies were held as far away as Madagascar and Bangui, Central African Republic.

Top ministers in the French government held an emergency session to discuss measures to prevent a repeat of the attacks, which shocked the country and raised questions about why law enforcement agencies had failed to thwart terrorism suspects well known to authorities.

Some of the surviving hostages shared

chilling accounts of their ordeals at the hands of heavily armed captors, who they said had seemed prepared to die as police amassed outside the supermarket and a printing plant northeast of Paris that the Kouachi brothers had seized early Friday.

Coulibaly, in an interview with a French television outlet not long before he was killed, claimed to be affiliated with the Islamic State, which has its headquarters in northern Syria. Officials identified him as the gunman in the fatal shooting of a police officer in a Paris suburb Thursday.

The crisis and its aftermath presented a major challenge to President François Hollande and his government, which are facing deep religious and cultural rifts in a nation with a rapidly growing Muslim population while simultaneously coping with the security threats stemming from Islamic extremists. Large numbers of French citizens have been traveling to Syria and Iraq to fight with the Islamic State.

Hollande, appealing for unity, has warned against seeing Muslims as the enemy, and Valls called again on Saturday for citizens to join the rally planned for Sunday.

“There needs to be a firm message about the values of the republic and of secularism,” Valls said in Évry. “Tomorrow, France and the French can be proud.

Everyone must come tomorrow.”

The contradiction points to the difficulties at a time of a growing debate within Islam about whether and how to reject a radical minority that some fear is dragging them into conflict and wrecking the faith.

Western critics are increasingly brazen about suggesting there is something inherent in Islam that is sparking violence by some of its adherents. Most Muslims reject this, arguing that the tumult of the post-colonial Middle East has created fertile ground for radicalism among people whose faith is fundamentally one of peace.

Nonetheless, the past year has seen increasing voices among Muslims saying their community must re-examine their faith to modernize its interpretations and sideline extremists. As much as recent attacks in the West, the rise of startlingly vicious violence

by Sunni Muslim militants in the name of Islam against fellow Muslims, including Sunnis, brought it home for many Muslims that something must change in religious discourse.

In Syria and Iraq, the Islamic State group has butchered entire families of Sunnis and beheaded Sunni soldiers, as well as Western hostages. In Pakistan, a Dec. 16 attack on a school that killed 150 people, mostly children, stunned the country. It made many Pakistanis question any empathy they felt in the past toward militant groups — the attitude of “even if they’re wrong, they’re still fellow Muslims.”

“Now I hear more people talking openly against extremism and militancy,” said HasanAskari Rizvi, an independent political analyst in Pakistan.

experts in law, psychology and social work. Some say boys should get the same protective care that girls do; other people who work with these cases argue that male teens are driven by raging hormones and are only too happy to explore their new sexuality with older women. But all of the experts agree that the discrepancy in the treatment of victims of nonviolent sexual abuse by their high school teachers is real. And it shows: Male victims typically receive lower awards in civil cases, the experts say, and female perpetrators get lighter sentences.

Exact comparisons between cases are difficult to make; every case is unique. But while there’s no data tracking the nationwide disparity in how male and female sexual abuse victims are treated, everybody seems to agree that the disparity exists.

The problem, rather, is that not everyone sees a problem with it.

“I think they should be treated different,” says Minneapolisbased defense lawyer Joe Friedberg. “Every high school boy had some kind of fantasy about some female teacher. I walk away from these cases and say, ‘That would have been my finest hour.’ I don’t know that I see the damage to the victim in those cases.”

Many more studies track female victims than male ones, but the research matches experts’

anecdotal observations about the severity of male suffering. In a 2004 study, researchers in Australia reviewed the psychiatric histories of more than 1,600 people who had been sexually abused as children. They found that both male and female victims had higher rates of psychiatric treatment for personality, anxiety and other disorders compared with the general population. Nearly one in four male victims had received treatment, compared with 10 percent of female victims.

In another 2004 study, researcher Myriam Denov, then at the University of Ottawa, conducted in-depth interviews with

14 victims of sexual abuse by females. Both male and female victims reported experiencing damaging long-term effects, including depression, substance abuse, self-injury, dysfunctional relationships with women and even suicide attempts.

Girls are four times more likely to be victims of sexual abuse than boys, according to the National Center for Victims of Crime. That imbalance has meant that sexual assault policies are not applied to the one in 20 abused boys with the same urgency they are applied to female victims. “You are laughed at and not believed,” says Denov, the researcher who conducted

the 2004 study.

Evidence of arousal is often used against boys, too. Clarkson says, “I was asked [by lawyers] how something that ended in me ejaculating could possibly be abuse,” he recalls.

That’s a common mistake, says psychiatrist Brian Jacks. Even if a boy cooperates in the sexual encounter — and brags about it to friends — that doesn’t mean the experience won’t have longterm, negative effects. “They are swaggering around at this point,” Jacks says. “You don’t realize the consequences until later in life.

You realize that you were taken advantage of. … I promise you, it’s going to mess up your life.”

MY VIEW: JEFF BINGAMAN

Legislature should seize energy opportunity

A

n important issue being debated today in Santa Fe is how much renewable energy generation should be expected from utilities operating in our state. Whatever decision is made on that issue, it would make great sense for the state Legislature to change New Mexico law to encourage construction of shared renewable energy facilities in communities throughout our state.

The most common type of shared renewable energy facility is a community solar project. In states where they are permitted, they are constructed and owned either by developers, municipalities or other public entities and typically can produce as much as several megawatts of power. The cost of constructing such facilities is underwritten by “subscribers” to the project. Those same “subscribers” receive credit on their utility bills for the energy the project provides to the grid.

A major benefit of such projects is that they allow individuals to partici-

pate in, and benefit from, solar power generation without incurring the cost or trouble of installing their own residential solar panels.

The shared renewable energy facility Jeff can also be located Bingaman at a site that takes maximum advantage of the renewable resource and is convenient to the grid. And because of the economies of scale involved, these projects are significantly less expensive per kilowatt-hour to install than are solar panels at an individual residence or place of business.

In our neighboring state of Colorado, legislation was enacted in 2010 to allow power to be generated by “solar gardens” of two megawatts or less to offset the power needs of neighborhoods and communities.

The legislation provides that the power generated by these “solar gar-

dens” be credited against the utility bills of the individuals who subscribe to the project. Since enactment of the Colorado legislation, more than 20 community solar projects have been installed in that state. California and Minnesota have also recently enacted legislation to encourage construction of shared renewable energy projects.

Here in New Mexico, Kit Carson Electric in Taos has shown leadership in partnering with a Colorado company to provide their customers with the opportunity to participate in a community solar project in that county. This 100-kilowatt array consists of 420 solar panels and is the first shared renewable energy facility in New Mexico. It has been sold out for several months.

In order that shared renewable energy facilities become available and widespread in our state, the Legislature should modify existing law to ensure that such projects can be constructed, not only by licensed utilities, but also by developers, municipalities

and other public and private entities.

The law should ensure that utilities will purchase the power from such projects and that the developers and owners of such facilities are not required to qualify and operate as “utilities” under state law.

I believe there are many New Mexicans who would like to see more of the power generated in our state coming from renewable sources. I also believe that many would welcome the chance to participate in a shared renewable energy project such as the “solar gardens” now operating in many Colorado counties, or the community solar system now operating in Taos County.

In its upcoming session, the New Mexico Legislature has the opportunity to empower the citizens of our state to help move our state to greater reliance on sustainable sources of energy. I hope they will seize that opportunity.

MY VIEW: MAYNARD CHAPMAN

Can Americans handle the truth?

I

n the movie A Few Good Men, the fictional Col. Nathan R. Jessup, played by Jack Nicholson, tells prosecuting attorney Kaffee played

by Tom Cruise, “You can’t handle the truth.”

All of the defenders of torture who are criticizing the recently released Senate Intelligence Report on Torture are collectively playing the role of Col. Jessup and telling the American public, “You can’t handle the truth.” The most vocal defenders are Dick Cheney, Gen. Michael Hayden, and every current and past director of the Central Intelligence Agency that Fox News can interview. They all speak with the same talking points and in one voice with arrogant claims they are patriotic defenders of freedom just like Col. Jessup. They are literally assuming that the general public cannot handle the truth.

Here are the most salient truths about the policy and practice of torture. u Torture is illegal under the U.S. War Crimes Act of 1994. u Torture violates the Geneva Conventions of 1949, Common Article 3, and the U.N. Convention on Torture of 1987 — both of which the U.S. signed. The latter was signed by President Ronald Reagan. u In June, 2006, the Supreme Court ruled in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld that all suspected terrorists, even those secretly detained by the CIA, are protected under the Geneva Conventions Common Article 3. u Torture under U.S. law is defined as “an act committed by a person acting under the color of law specifically intended to inflict severe physical or mental pain or suffering upon another person within his custody or physical control.” u The torture memos authored by then Department of Justice lawyers John Yoo and his boss, Jay Bybee, intentionally, illegally and without precedent narrowed the definition of torture.

Yoo and Bybee defined torture as “the equivalent in intensity to the pain accompanying serious physical injury, such as organ failure, impairment of bodily function, or even death.” In other words, interrogation techniques, in the opinion of Yoo and Bybee, were not torture unless they caused organ failure or death. u The Military Commissions Act of 2006 was simply an attempt to insulate the Bush administration in general, and the CIA in particular, from prosecution. It did not repeal or replace the U.S. War Crimes Act of 1994.

In a 2005 memo approved by President George W. Bush, Yoo described waterboarding. “In this technique, the detainee is lying on a gurney that is inclined at an angle of 10 to 15 degrees to horizontal, with the detainee on his back and his head

toward the lower end of the gurney. A cloth is placed over the detainee’s face, and cold water is poured on the cloth from a height of approximately 6 to 18 inches. The wet cloth creates a barrier through which it is difficult — or in some cases not possible — to breathe.”

The recently released Senate Intelligence report contains much more graphic information that details the extent and severity of the methods used at CIA black sites. For example, “dietary manipulation” escalated into “rectal hydration.”

The current “debate” following the release of the Senate Intelligence report is more coverup than debate. It is an attempt to cover up the crimes committed by CIA operatives, officers and contractors by cloaking those crimes with words like patriots, and defenders of freedom.

The defenders of torture all work from the same script. The script tells the spin doctors to repeat three themes: 1) Torture is legal; 2) waterboarding is not torture; and 3) “enhanced interrogation techniques” work.

Sen. John McCain, the only current politician

actually subjected to torture, will tell anyone that waterboarding is indeed torture. And McCain also says from personal experience that torturing detainees produces two types of responses. The detainee will tell the interrogator anything he thinks the interrogator wants to hear or anything the detainee thinks the interrogator will believe.

It does not produce actionable intelligence.

The price that this country continues to pay for torture apologists such as Cheney and Hayden is that it endangers the lives and safety of our own combat troops as well as innocent hostages captured by ideological thugs and murderers.

Perhaps the highest price was voiced by Supreme Court Justice Louis Brandeis in 1928.

In Olmstead v. United States, Justice Brandeis wrote, “Crime is contagious. If the government becomes a lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for the law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself.”

On the D.H. Lawrence Ranch, for the record

A

s a visitor to the D.H. Lawrence Ranch over the past four decades and a scholar of the Taos Arts community, I was thrilled to hear about the “rebirth” of the Lawrence ranch.

But I would like to correct several misconceptions that continue to be purveyed. Dorothy Brett was not a “Lady” — in either Lois Rudnick sense of the word.

She was an “Honorable.” For whatever difference that might make to Americans, it matters to the British peerage. Mabel did not trade her ranch to Frieda Lawrence for the manuscript of Sons and Lov-

ers — she gave the Lawrences the ranch, but Frieda did not wish to be under obligation to her for it, and so she gave Mabel the manuscript (later sold to pay the psychiatric bills of a Broadway musical composer friend of Mabel’s).

Carl Jung never visited either Mabel (she was spending the winter in New York City, as she did through most of the 1920s and ’30s) or the Lawrences. He spent a few days at Taos Pueblo, talking to the cacique, and wrote twice about his experiences there, which profoundly moved him.

However, he never would have come to Taos if Mabel’s anthropologist friend, Jaime de Angulo, hadn’t visited often and urged Jung to stop there during a national tour he was

making in 1925.

It’s possible that Lillian Gish visited the ranch, but she most definitely dined with the Luhans. Afterwards, Tony Luhan adroitly commented, “Nothing behind that face.”

And yes, Leonard Bernstein spent a week or two at the ranch in 1948,

when he was 30 years old (there are two gorgeous photographs of him dressed in cowboy gear taken during his visit that are in the Library of Congress). While he was there, he wrote much of his extraordinary second symphony, “The Age of Anxiety,” based on a poem by W.H. Auden with the same title.

Where better to create a composition about the postwar and post-atomic malaise of the U.S. than in that magnificent, isolated high country that Lawrence loved?

B So long, Rod, gone so soon I

n this column last November, I wrote about former state Sen. Rod Adair’s return to Secretary of State Dianna Duran’s office (after taking a few months off to help fellow Republican Duran win re-election).

In that piece, I wondered how Adair’s new role as press spokesman would work out. “I’ve always enjoyed talking with Adair, even though he hasn’t always gotten along well with some reporters,” I wrote. “As a senator, he once claimed that ‘nobody has been attacked more in the news media’ than he has been.”

I said then that it would be interesting to see how Adair’s relationship with the press developed.

But he wasn’t there long enough for anything to develop.

Steve Terrell He stepped down to Roundhouse “pursue other opporRoundup tunities,” the office said last week.

For that column, I’d reached out to Adair to comment himself.

As it turned out, he did respond — with an email almost as long as the space I’m allowed for this column — but not in time to make it into the paper that week.

I guess it’s moot now, but Adair’s answer showed he put a lot of thought into the matter.

It also shows that some stormy dealings with the press probably would have been ahead had Adair stayed on.

In his reply, Adair indicated that his main problem was with some reporters’ “erroneous or inaccurate reporting.”

“I know that isn’t popular with reporters, but ironically it’s an issue that media folk, if they’re truly dedicated to their craft, should be more concerned about than anyone else. … I do confess to believing that, just as the case with elected officials, media should also be held to account. But I have also observed that being held to scrutiny and accountability does seem to bother quite a few in the media, though by no means all reporters, editors, or producers. In fact, it’s been my observation that some in media are more defensive perhaps than any other profession, even politicians.

“Increasingly over the past couple of decades we have seen the emergence of a rather overt form of ‘advocacy journalism’ — people pushing ideologicallyengendered stories under the cover of a by-line, and so we’ve seen the blurring of lines between reporting and polemics,” Adair said. “Some reporters write stories for newspaper bylines by day, and blog in a very partisan fashion by night.

It strains credulity to think that readers don’t pick up on that, or also pick up on the way in which advocacy journalism creeps into ‘news’ stories. The proliferation of bloggers (including those with a print distribution component available to them) is not a bad thing at all — let everyone opine, it’s a good thing — but the idea they are ‘media’ or legitimate ‘reporters’ is more problematic, as is the increasing tendency of reporters to imitate bloggers even as ideology-peddling bloggers are yearning to be recognized as reporters.”

Adair listed a few examples then quoted some words from Socrates: “’False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul with evil.’

“I think most of us who have been in public life, or who work on behalf of those who are, have much greater respect for the editorialist — the out-and-out, fullfledged, no-holds-barred polemicist who just lets fly, delivering the hard-edged blows for the ideology he or she believes in with religious ferocity — than we do for the fake — the guy or gal who does all of the above on the side, but tries to tell everyone they’re ‘straight-shooters’ who ‘just report the facts,’ ” he wrote. “The editorialist realizes and admits who he is.

That is honest. The fraudulent reporter is being dishonest, not only with the people he purportedly serves, but to himself as well.”

He said that such “fraudulent” reporters are “in effect, living an unexamined life. Their colleagues who defend them, or cannot comprehend these issues, are living that same life. And you know what Socrates said about that.”

“If made-up stories … don’t affect a reporter’s job, then certainly my belief that reporters should be truthful should not affect my job,” Adair wrote.

Indeed, it would have been interesting to see how Adair’s relationship with the press would have worked out.

SFCC stays essential

S

anta Fe Community College is celebrating the opening of its $12 million Higher Education Center this Wednesday. It’s an important milestone for the college, one that signals a coming of age for a school that has faced its share of challenges in the past few years.

From turmoil at the top to budget shortfalls, the normally rock-solid community college had to deal with upheaval — most recently, a $5 million budget shortfall that has meant cutbacks, layoffs, salary reductions and a tuition increase this year. A new president, Randy Grissom, promoted to take the reins after his predecessor, Ana “Cha” Guzmán, was asked to leave, has kept busy righting the ship.

With the opening of the 34,000-square-foot HEC — designed to make four-year degrees affordable and convenient — the college has reason for optimism. The center, located in the middle of Santa Fe, will make it easier than ever for Santa Fe residents to obtain affordable bachelor’s and master’s degrees without having to leave the city limits. For young adults and midcareer workers juggling families, jobs and life responsibilities, the convenience factor cannot be overstated.

The center matters not just to the community college and the students who will take advantage of these programs, but to the economic future of Santa Fe. The partnerships with New Mexico Highlands University, New Mexico State University, the Institute of American Indian Arts and The University of New Mexico give adults in Santa Fe the opportunity to improve their educational credentials without accruing debt or disrupting their lives. Better-educated workers will help all of Santa Fe prosper.

The location, across from Santa Fe High School and adjacent to the Santa Fe University of Art and Design, also brings surprising cohesion to the area — almost as if some smart city planner had decided to create an education zone in a convenient part of town.

High school students will find dual-credit classes especially convenient. (Santa Fe High is across the street, but the new Nelson Mandela International Magnet School is close by, too, at De Vargas Middle School. The New Mexico School for the Arts charter high school is considering building its permanent campus just a stone’s throw from the new center, bringing even more of an educational focus to the area.)

Close to state agencies, local businesses and schools, the center will be an ideal place for early morning, lunchtime or just-after-work classes. A junior state accountant can get a bachelor’s degree, earning a promotion and more money.

A teacher’s aide can finish his education degree, or an ambitious high school student can graduate with an associate degree while receiving a high school diploma.

By taking SFCC classes over the first two years and then transferring to a partner institution, students can save thousands of dollars in tuition as well. Before the new center opened — construction began in January 2014 — the HEC operated from the college main campus on Richards Avenue. Now it has its own space and identity.

The center will offer classes from its four-year university partners in 15 high-technology-outfitted classrooms in the two-story building. There also will be noncredit classes, offerings from the Small Business Center and other courses, all in a place that’s easy to reach from any part of town. At 1 p.m. Wednesday, when the center officially opens (although Highlands classes start Monday), there will be plenty to celebrate.

The grand opening is far from the only good news for the community college. Total gifts to the SFCC Foundation over the past year add up to a record $1.7 million.

Total grants awarded to the college in 2014 hit a record $16.7 million. The school awarded a record 897 certificates and degrees last May to 797 students.

New programs started last year include a community health worker certificate, and the community college is on the brink of starting an automotive technology program.

Wisely, SFCC will be using facilities at Santa Fe High School for some of the automotive technology programs, as well as tapping into local car dealerships for training — and best of all for students, jobs.

With the Higher Education Center its latest venture, Santa Fe Community College continues to stay relevant and essential for Santa Fe. The past few years have been rough, but the future has seldom seemed brighter.

COMMENTARY: MARIAN L. TUPY

Unequal? Depends on perspective WASHINGTON s inequality increasing or decreasing?

The answer depends on our point of reference.

In America, the income gap between the top 1 percent and the rest has grown.

But if we look not at America, but the world, inequality is shrinking. We are witnessing, in the words of the World Bank’s Branko Milanovic, “the first decline in global inequality between world citizens since the Industrial Revolution.”

For most of human history, incomes were more equal, but terribly low. Two thousand years ago, GDP per person in the most advanced parts of the world hovered around $3.50 per day. That was the global average 1,800 years later.

But by the early 19th century, a pronounced income gap emerged between the West and the rest. Take the United States. In 1820, the U.S. was 1.9 times richer than the global average. The income gap grew to 4.1 in 1960 and reached its maximum level of 4.8 in 1999.

By 2010, it had shrunk by 19 percent to 3.9.

That narrowing is not a function of declining Western incomes. During the Great Recession, for example, U.S. GDP per capita decreased by 4.8 percent between 2007 and 2009. It rebounded by 5.7 percent over the next 4 years and stands at an all-time high today. Rather, the narrowing of the income gap is a result of growing incomes in the rest of the world.

Consider the spectacular rise of Asia.

In 1960, the U.S. was 11 times richer than Asia. Today, America is only 4.8 times richer than Asia.

To understand why, let’s look at China.

Between 1958 and 1961, Mao Zedong attempted to transform China’s largely agricultural economy into an industrial one through the “Great Leap Forward.”

His stated goal was to overtake the U.K.’s industrial production in 15 years. Industrialization, which included building of factories at home as well as large-scale purchases of machinery abroad, was to be paid for by food produced on collective farms.

But the collectivization of agriculture resulted in famine that killed between 18 million and 45 million people. Industrial initiatives, such as Mao’s attempt to massively increase production of steel, were equally disastrous. People burned their houses to stoke the fires of the steel mills and melted cooking wares to fulfil the steel production quotas. The result was destruction, rather than creation of wealth.

Deng Xiaoping, Mao’s successor, partially privatized the farmland and allowed farmers to sell their produce. Trade liberalization ensured that Chinese industrial output would no longer be dictated by production quotas, but by the demands of the international economy. But following liberalization in 1978, China’s GDP per

capita has increased 12.5 fold, rising from $545 in 1980 to $6,807 in 2013. Over the same time period, the Chinese poverty rate fell from 84 percent to 10 percent.

What is true of China is also true in much of the developing world. As Laurence Chandy and Geoffrey Gertz of the Brookings Institution wrote in 2011, “poverty reduction of this magnitude is unparalleled in history: never before have so many people been lifted out of poverty over such a brief period of time.”

Developing countries have made strides in other areas too. Take life expectancy. Between 1960 and 2010, global life expectancy increased from 53 years to 70.

In the U.S. over the same period it rose from 70 to 78. Similar stories can be told about child and maternal mortality, treatment of communicable diseases, and the spread of technology.

Many Americans point to globalization as a bogeyman, robbing our country of good jobs and resources. But really, the phenomenon has ushered a period of unprecedented prosperity in many poor countries. Even as we struggle with economic problems at home, let us remember the global — and largely positive — perspective on the state of the world.

Running on hope and faith

T

he Dow Jones Industrial Average hit a peak 52 times in 52 weeks in 2014. As I write this, the Dow was surpassing 18,000 for the first time in history. Though one may be fearful of the stock market from the 200809 financial crisis, one has to look at the spectacular stock market run-up since. Hope and faith may be the reason why the markets have reached a peak in the domestic markets.

Hope is a worthy four-letter word. Our country sustained the worst financial crisis in our lives and second-worst of all time in the United States.

Hope is what propelled us to get to work and produce more, perhaps spend more and buy more. This sense of hope was not only a governmental stimulus but a country that didn’t forget to run marathons, celebrate the holidays, and continue to work for less money or even part-time.

In April of 2009, my wife and I ran the Boston Marathon. Our Dow Jones Industrial Average just fell to a bottom on March 6, 2009, of 6,626. I was amazed to see tens of thousands of marathon runners spend thousands of dollars in travel expenses to run 26.2 miles and open up their wallet at the Marathon Expo. Today the Dow is set to close above 18,000. Can you believe that we have almost tripled our Dow in less than six years? I can. I believe in hope.

This past year, my friend and former roommate won the Boston Marathon. After college, I ran for Adidas and lived the lifestyle of an American long-distance runner.

When Meb Keflezighi woke at 4 a.m. before the Boston Marathon, he and his wife Googled the four children’s names who died in the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing and he printed them on his racing bib. He was a long shot to win, but hope kept him going. He ran for those who died.

In 2009, I was, and still am, a financial adviser at Merrill Lynch in Santa Fe, and I saw firsthand what happens to the financial services industry during a meltdown and crisis. The only thing we had to move us forward was hope.

It was hard to continue my marathon training but I kept going. This year, I ran my 13th marathon at the Bank of America Chicago Marathon in three hours. I’ve run a personal best of 2 hours, 32 minutes in 2007 before the financial crisis. I hope to run another marathon in 2015 and have no plans on slowing down at the age of 34.

Will the Dow slow down?

(There definitely is some uncertainty in the new year.)

That is a question one can answer with faith. We in the financial services industry have faith the Dow will continue to set new records. Will there be 52 new records in 2015? We hope and have faith that there will be numerous Dow record closing days in 2015 and years to come.

Antonio Lopez is 34. He is a senior financial adviser and vice president at Merrill Lynch in Santa Fe. He loves to run marathons with his wife, Elizabeth.

MY VIEW: LAURA K. SMITH

It’s wrong to create fake ‘service’ dogs I

love my dog. She’s an important part of my life and I would love to be able to take her more places with me. She’s well-behaved (mostly) and friendly. Why not purchase a vest and “certification” from some dishonest Internet vendor and start parading my pet around as a service dog? I could take her into restaurants, theaters, wherever the public is allowed. I could even demand she be allowed on airplanes and into hotels free of charge.

Well, I don’t because I know it’s a federal crime, and it demeans the hard work real service animals perform.

The Americans with Disabilities Act defines service animals as “dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for people with disabilities” (www.ada.gov/service_animals_2010.htm). Service animals give critical support to people with serious handicaps and medical conditions, and help provide a level of independence for those who rely on them. Emotionalsupport animals and therapy animals are great, but the ADA specifically

states that these are not service animals and are not afforded any special rights or consideration under the law. The only exception I know of is that medically certified emotion-support Laura K. animals are allowed Smith on airplanes and in no-animal housing.

A quick Internet search and a few dollars can buy anyone an officiallooking vest and a shiny ID card. Some of these sites blatantly misquote the ADA, and some claim that everyone is disabled in some way. We’re starting to see these fake service animals everywhere. They’re sometimes pretty obvious, but their owners think themselves untouchable, knowing no one will ask about a possibly hidden disability.

These pet owners no doubt convince themselves their deception is harmless, but it is not. More and more, individuals and their real service animals are

facing illegal discrimination due to the public’s growing perception that service animals are merely glorified pets.

Business owners and employees should know they are not entirely without recourse when faced with a suspicious “service dog.” Although no one can require documentation of either a disability or a service animal’s credentials (many of which are fraudulent anyway), you are entitled to ask two questions: Is this dog a service animal that is required because of a disability; and what specific work or task is this dog trained to perform? If the owner cannot answer these questions or admits that the animal is a therapy dog or an emotional-support animal (ESA), you are within your rights to enforce a no-animals policy.

It is against federal law to impersonate a disabled person to obtain ADA benefits. In addition, any dog, legitimate service animal or not, who displays inappropriate behavior like nipping, barking or soiling may be legally removed. For more on service dogs

THE DRAWING BOARD THE WEEK IN CARTOONS

and businesses, see www.ada.gov/ qasrvc.htm.

I realize that many businesses might think the negative customer interaction not worth it. But we should no more tolerate fake service dogs than any other kind of fraud. It might be a common sitcom trope, but in real life, it’s no laughing matter to masquerade as a disabled person. It’s especially shocking and despicable if the hoax is perpetrated just to bring a beloved pet to brunch.

These dog owners undermine the intent of the ADA, perpetuate negative perceptions of service animals and put disabled citizens at risk of losing vital support. These scofflaws are not entitled to animal companionship in public.

Please consider signing a petition to end service dog fraud on Canine Companions for Independence’s website, cci.org.

Laura K. Smith is a St. John’s alumna and works at the Santa Fe Community College Library. She lives in town with her emotionally supportive husband, three therapeutic cats and one serviceable dog.

MY VIEW: MEREDITH MACHEN

New Mexico needs ethics commission

F

or nearly 100 years, the League of Women Voters has been working hard to make our democracy work. We do this by encouraging voter participation and holding our elected officials accountable to those who elect them. The job is not without its challenges. New Mexico routinely receives D’s and F’s on national report cards ranking legislative and executive accountability, ethics enforcement and transparency.

Failing grades like this come from “pay-to-play” politics and lack of regulation. They not only discourage active citizens like us, they discourage out-of-state businesses from creating muchneeded new jobs in our state.

They discourage young people from pursuing careers in public service. Even more importantly, they sour ordinary people from voting, trusting our government and participating in civic life.

To strengthen public trust and assure citizens that public officials are not exempt from ethical standards, the league has been a longtime supporter of a bipartisan, independent ethics commission. New Mexico is one of only eight states that lacks such a commission — but it’s not for lack of trying. More than 50 bills to establish a commission have been introduced since 2007, but none of them have passed. Now with a reshuffled deck of legislators, it is time to pledge to New Mexicans that everyone will be held accountable.

That is why we have joined with New Mexico Common Cause and a number of business and civic organizations and taken the New Mexico Pledge to increase transparency in government through more disclosure of campaign funds, to encourage citizen participation through campaign finance reform, and to hold candidates and public officials accountable. For public officials and employees, the best mechanism to provide accountability is an independent, bipartisan ethics commission to enforce existing laws and ensure compliance.

We believe that an independent ethics commission should have the authority and budget to

oversee campaign finance and gift laws as well as other ethics rules and lobbying laws.

In the past few years, the Legislature passed Meredith a gift act and Machen strengthened the governmental conduct act for both state and local officials.

A strong ethics commission can finish the job — educating public officials and employees on how to apply the law and ensuring enforcement.

A commission could receive allegations and complaints, conduct investigations and present cases to the appropriate enforcement agencies. It must protect the rights of the public as well as the subjects of investigations.

The vast majority of elected officials in New Mexico are honest, hardworking people who are often caught in gray areas stemming from a citizen Legislature and confusing standards. An ethics commission will draw some bright lines and separate the few bad apples from the vast majority of honest public servants. In so doing, it will help restore public trust.

Commissions of this type are working in Colorado, Oklahoma and Texas. Last year, then-Sen. Tim Keller introduced a constitutional amendment to allow voters to weigh in on the issue.

Keller won’t be back (he’s the state auditor now), but the amendment will be, along with other ethics commission bills.

They deserve our attention.

Independence and transparency must be key components along with subpoena power and authority over contractors, lobbyists and campaigners.

Reformers inside and outside the Legislature have laid the groundwork for a series of solid measures to increase transparency and hold everyone accountable. Now it’s your turn. Sign on to http://newmexicopledge.org/ and show up to make your voice heard.

Meredith Machen is president of the League of Women Voters of New Mexico.

MY VIEW: CHERYL ODOM

Jobs for younger adults would fuel city’s nightlife

M

This year, Antonio Lopez ran his 13th marathon at the Bank of America Chicago Marathon in three hours.

y 27-year-old son and his wife moved back to Santa Fe a little over three years ago when I was faced with a lengthy treatment for cancer. They hated the year that they had spent in the San Francisco Bay Area and were homesick for New Mexico, so they decided to stay.

It’s been financially challenging for them both, although they both have degrees from the College of Santa Fe and graduated with honors. There are no well-paying jobs in their area of interest in Santa Fe. In fact, there are few well-paying jobs in the arts for any of the current and upcoming young, talented graduates of what is now the Santa Fe University of Art and

Design who would like to stay and start careers here. My son and his wife don’t have reliable cars or expendable cash for entertainment. They are creative people Cheryl Odom and are not wired for “STEM” jobs, which our local and state politicians seem to think will solve all of the employment problems with the youth of Santa Fe. It was, therefore, with some interest that I read a recent Sunday article (“The edge of a nightlife revival,” Dec. 28) having listened to my son at a recent holiday gathering explain to a

guest that the reason he didn’t participate in Santa Fe’s downtown nightlife was because he couldn’t afford it. What he did do, along with his wife and the rest of his friends (many of whom attended the College of Santa Fe with him and would like to call this town home), was hang out at each others’ homes because that’s what they could afford.

Creating a Santa Fe nightlife and keeping young people in Santa Fe, particularly the creative ones, might best be addressed by creating jobs for them that are not minimum wage at Santa Fe’s big box stores or in the food and beverage industry. Perhaps the city of Santa Fe could entice an editing, sound

and CGI animation studio to relocate here, for example, which would employ a lot of my son’s friends, at least those who have film degrees. A graphic design studio that would hire recent grads and offer internships might be another possibility. The thought that the city of Santa Fe might actually hire graphic designers in Santa Fe, rather than contracting these jobs out to other places, makes me absolutely giddy.

Cheryl Odom has lived in Santa Fe for 35 years and taught at the College of Santa Fe for 29 of them. She is very interested in Santa Fe’s youth culture and is horrified at the possibility that Santa Fe has become a retirement center.

But none of that helped her Dec. 20, when she was crossing the southbound lanes of traffic on N.M. 599 at Via Veteranos on her way to a quilting class.

Catanach, a counselor for

disabled adults at Easter Seals El Mirador, died after she was T-boned by a white van that was traveling south on the highway. New Mexico State Police concluded Catanach was at fault.

Her death elicited a swift, vehement demand from the already frustrated Aldea community west of N.M. 599, where she had lived, to the New Mexico Department of Transportation: Make the N.M. 599 intersections safer.

“I just think N.M. 599 is a mess of a roadway,” said Aldea resident Nancy Deutsch. “I think the development was short-sighted. How many people have to lose their lives?”

Since the relief route was completed in 2000, the Department of Transportation has completed some upgrades to make it safer. In 2011, flashing beacons were

Repeat champ, third-grader advance to state spelling bee competition

Stars spell way to victory

By Milan Simonich The New Mexican

A

cool-headed veteran of many competitions and a tiny titan of an 8-year-old emerged Saturday as the stars of the Santa Fe County Spelling Bee. Eighth-grader Anish Kumar became a repeat champion, winning the spelling bee for the second consecutive year.

The second-place finisher created perhaps a bigger stir because she is only a third-grader. Akansha Nanda of Carlos Gilbert Elementary School was among the two or three youngest of the 47 students in the countywide competition, yet she outlasted everybody except Anish.

Anish, a student at Desert Academy, was perfect in all 11 rounds. He claimed first place by correctly spelling lipogram, which means a writing composed of words not having a certain letter.

Anish is used to the pressure of a public stage. He captured New Mexico’s state spelling championship last year and advanced to the Scripps National Spelling Bee, where he was eliminated before the semifinals.

But in victory Saturday, this young man of letters had a bit of difficulty composing his sentences.

“I was a bit — what’s the word?”

“Nervous,” said his mother, Deepa Makkar.

“I was a bit nervous,” he agreed.

As for 8-year-old Akansha, she answered many questions with a shy smile. As the runner-up, she also advances to the state spelling bee in Albuquerque.

So does Santa Fe’s third-place finisher, Ulysses Yarbrough. A seventhgrader at Santa Fe Prep, Ulysses said he will be making his third trip to the state competition.

He pointed out that bee organizers misspelled his name on the tag they gave him to wear around his neck.

“It’s one of the ironies of the day,” Ulysses said.

Nerves jangled as the spellers, their parents, friends and coaches filled a room at Santa Fe Community College. More than 50 kids signed in for the competition, but only 47 went on stage a few minutes later.

Nearly half of the competitors were eliminated in the first round, even before the words became esoteric.

Five students survived until the hard-luck 11th round.

Anish was the only one to spell his

Naranjo was a thirdgrader in a school in Tooele, Utah. Men from Santa Clara Pueblo, including her father, worked for long periods at the Army depot there and brought their families with them to live at the post, which was about a 12-hour drive from their New Mexico homes.

Experts say El Niño could still deliver a snowy winter Factors that make up weather phenomenon yet to fully develop

El Niño is on life support, but it isn’t dead yet.

Meteorologists say there’s still a slim chance the weather phenomenon that usually means a good snowy winter in New Mexico will revive and deliver.

Back in October, climate models pointed to an El Niño pattern, albeit a weak to moderate one, developing especially in mid to late winter. “We’ve seen a taste of it, but not what we had hoped,” said Kerry Jones, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Albuquerque. “In October, we thought certainly by this time in January we would have had several widespread storms that would have affected us.”

It takes two main elements to tango for El Niño.

Only one — the warmer than average surface and subsurface sea temperatures in the equatorial Pacific — has shown up for the dance. The other element — air circulating in the atmosphere — hasn’t heard the music yet.

When the sea temperatures and atmosphere dance together, they drive changes in the location of large clusters of thunderstorms, Jones said. When these storms shift, they add heat to the mid and upper atmosphere, pushing the jet stream in favor of more winter moisture over New Mexico and other portions of the Southwestern United States.

“We thought by now they would be gelling and spinning,” Jones said.

“So I wrote this paper on coming to Santa Clara and our feast days and the women baking the bread in the oven and our dances and all that.”

Police: Man armed with knife robbed Subway restaurant A knife-wielding bandit robbed the Subway restaurant at 3005 S. St. Francis Drive just before 9 a.m. Saturday, police said.

They described the thief as a man in his 20s, about 5 feet 8 inches tall and 170 pounds. He wore a lightgray hooded jumpsuit and black gloves.

In a report, police said the man entered the store and ordered a sandwich. Then he pulled a knife with a green handle and demanded money from the cash register.

Police said the robber, not waiting for workers to give him the cash, walked around the counter, grabbed money from the register and fled. He may have been in a dirty-gray Pontiac G5, according to witness accounts.

A police spokesman on Saturday evening said no one had been arrested.

Nobody at the store was physically injured in the robbery.

FUNERAL SERVICES & MEMORIALS

DONALD J. LISKA November 3, 1929 - December 26, 2014 Don Liska, 85, died at home after a brief illness with Alice, his wife of 59 years, by his side.

Born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Don received his Bachelor and Master Degrees in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin.

It was there that he met Alice. Don and Alice were avid members of the UofW Hoofers, an outdoor enthusiast club where they discovered their love of climbing and the outdoors. Don was drafted into the US Army immediately upon his graduation and served for 2 years.

Don began his career as an Engineer in Culver City, CA at Hughes Aircraft.

They moved on to Seattle, WA to work at Boeing. During this time he and Alice lived in a trailer which had minimal indoor plumbing. This "temporary" living arrangement lasted for 10 years and is a testament to both Don and Alice’s hardiness, sense of adventure and devotion to each other.

Don took a staff position at Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1966 and with Alice, immediately joined the Los Alamos Mountaineers. He became a well respected multifaceted engineer designing and building particle accelerators. His career led him to sabbaticals at Rutherford Laboratory in England and Cern in Geneva Switzerland. Don retired in 1993 after 27 years of service.

He loved New Mexico not only because of his rewarding career at the Lab but also because of its natural beauty and the outdoor adventures that were readily available to him. He was a member of the American Alpine Club for many years and became an honorary lifetime member of the Los Alamos Mountaineers about 10 years ago. He was one of the strongest and most active members with many first ascents to his credit. Both he and Alice were enthusiastic mountaineers, rock climbers, backpackers, down hill and cross country skiers, hikers, cyclists, and canoeists. Additionally Don was passionate about folk dancing, politics, world travel, US and world history, the environment and animals. He greeted everybody with a warm smile and always made you feel welcome and important.

Don once said, "When we think back on our lives, it’s the exciting trips and outdoor adventures that stand out. Not the many days in the office." Don will be missed by his countless friends and acquaintances whose lives he has touched and influenced.

A celebration of Don’s life and interment of his ashes at Santa Fe National Cemetery will both be announced at a later date in anticipation of warmer weather. Hopefully many of those who knew Don will participate. In lieu of flowers, consider a donation to your favorite environmental or animal rescue cause.

CLINTON D. HUGHES Clinton D. Hughes lived most of his 84 years in New Mexico. "This is my country," he often said to describe his sense of belonging to the mountains he skied, the streams he fly-fished, and the fields where he hunted game birds. Though he retired his skis at age 75, in his dreams he never stopped taking the pitches of Longhorn, his favorite run at Taos Ski Valley. And in his last years, when he no longer walked fields to flush out quail and pheasant or the riverbanks for fish, he tied flies to lure the canniest of trout.

A farm boy from Kansas, Clint Hughes became a small animal veterinarian.

Married in 1952, he and his wife Jo Ellyn moved to Alamogordo in 1954, where, as a Captain in the United States Air Force, he managed the Aero Medical Field Laboratory at Holloman Air Force Base conducting studies of high speed on monkeys, pigs, and chimpanzees to prepare for man’s travel to outer space. In 1956, The Journal of Aviation Medicine published his study, and not long after, he and Jo settled in Albuquerque to open his veterinary practice specializing in orthopedic surgery. For 26 years, he treated an exotic spectrum of animals from mice to lions. His favorite: sporting dogs. When he retired from animal medicine, New Mexico’s higher elevations beckoned.

Santa Fe became home.

His academic accomplishments include a Bachelor and Master of Science and a Doctorate of Veterinary Science from Kansas State University (1953), where he was a member of Sigma Xi and Gamma Sigma Delta. He completed his residency in surgery at University of Pennsylvania (1954). Over a span of 30 years, he served as Co-Chairman of the American Association of Colleges - Kansas State University, President of Bernalillo County Veterinary Association, and Director of American Animal Hospital Association. He was a member of the New Mexico Veterinary Association, American Veterinary Radiology Society, American Veterinary Medical Association, and the Academy of Veterinary Practice. He was appointed to the Veterinary Examiners Board in 1967 and served as its president for five years.

He is survived by his wife Jo, daughter Debra, her husband Gary, and grandsons Austin and Merritt.

Clint was born in Mulberry, Kansas to Agnes and Lewis Larkin Hughes on January 9, 1930. On January 1, 2015, at 4:30 a.m., he died in Santa Fe after a bold struggle with Alzheimer’s. The family celebrated his life in a private gathering at home.

He joined his two brothers in the family business, Intertel in 1987, where he worked for several more years.

He was an avid sportsman who enjoyed hunting and fishing throughout his beloved New Mexico. He particularly enjoyed the special elk hunts with his two brothers and friends at the Moreno Ranch. He enjoyed sharing his love of the outdoors with his family and one of his favorite fall excursions was packing a picnic basket and heading to the hills with his family in search of pinons.

He was a long time Dallas Cowboys and Santa Fe Demons football fan.

His most treasured possession in life was his family and it is estimated he attended hundreds of football games, softball games, piano recitals and music programs in which his daughters and granddaughters participated. Time spent with them created his most memorable and happiest moments. Domenic was a loving husband, father, brother and son.

Bernalillo County reported 67, McKinley County, 29, and San Juan County, 28.

It’s harder to pin down how many crashes have occurred at the Via Veteranos intersection. A petition circling through town to add a traffic light to the intersection said 25 crashes had occurred at the crossing in the past year.

There have been other deaths along N.M. 599. Two occurred at the South Meadows/County Road 62 intersection. In 2011, Elizabeth Gonzales, a 24-year-old secretary at the District Attorney’s Office in Santa Fe, was killed after turning in front of a northbound vehicle. In another crash at that site, a man lost an arm.

Tony Brown a resident of the Aldea de Santa Fe community, has started a petition calling for traffic lights at the Via Veteranos intersection. The

petition, which is available to sign at change.org, has already received more than 500 signatures.

“I have lived here for 6 years and use that cross way 4 to 6 times a day and have seen more accidents and close calls than I can remember,” Brown wrote. “Please sign this petition and help stop any more needless deaths resulting from this poorly designed interchange.”

There is a similar intersection at N.M. 599 and Camino de los Montoyas.

Melissa Dosher, a spokeswoman with the New Mexico Department of Transportation, said the agency has received complaints from the community and is doing what it can to address them. She said the state agency would perform a traffic signal study at the intersection soon.

Dosher said a new Jaguar Drive interchange is being built, and after that is completed, the agency will “determine what safety enhancements/changes” might be needed elsewhere.

Over the years, Naranjo, working sometimes independently and at other times for tribal entities or various advocacy organizations, has been deeply involved in numerous issues that have affected tribal, Hispanic and Anglo communities.

They include organizing farmers to preserve indigenous seeds, teaming up with acequia groups to ensure adequate and safe water supplies, and being a key player in land, water and health issues involving the Los Alamos National Laboratory.

Naranjo said she was influenced by the potter Christina Naranjo, a woman she thought of as a great aunt, who often recounted stories of village leaders, or the cacique. In the mid to late 1800s, they had concluded that outright hostile resistance to the American Anglos moving into the area was futile and that the only hope of survival was cooperation, to the extent possible, she said.

In addition, Marian Naranjo said, it was a time “when no one questioned what your elders told you because there were no such things as lies.”

Naranjo, a former potter from a well-known and established family of potters and a onetime LANL dosimetry employee, has succeeded not through acrimonious confrontations but more through trying to unite opposing cultures and political forces in nonhostile ways, in the style of Martin Luther King Jr. or Nelson Mandela, to whom she has been compared.

Most recently, working through a group she founded, Mujeras Hablan, and other Native women’s groups, she and others convinced the National Cancer Institute to include many more New Mexicans

than it originally intended in its belated study of possible health effects from the 1945 Trinity Site test, the first detonation of an atomic device. Naranjo also was instrumental in explaining Native protocols and brought the institute’s researchers up to speed on tribal customs and working with Native peoples.

“It was this whole new place they had to learn about,” Naranjo said. “And I had that privilege to tell them, ‘This is where you are coming and there are protocols here.’ It was a learning experience for them. “You just can’t come in and do interviews in a Native nation. There’s a process. … You have to do X, Y and Z before you can even come here. And one of those was getting resolutions from a tribal nation that says, ‘yes, we are interested in you coming.’ ” Naranjo was among tribal residents and others who played a key role in the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s decade-long study of releases of radiation and hazardous chemicals during the Manhat-

tan Project and the manufacture of nuclear weapons during the Cold War and beyond.

When the report, the Los Alamos Historical Document Retrieval and Assessment Project, was released in 2010, it included — at Naranjo’s request — a poem by Beata Tsosie-Pena of the Santa Clara Pueblo. Several stanzas referred to the 1945 Trinity test, describing how “a plume of ash rained down for days. … Radioactive fallout on cisterns of drinking water, on crops and livestock.”

One of Naranjo’s current projects is construction of a buwah tewha, or women’s cultural center, in the pueblo, which she hopes will help commemorate and restore the traditional influential role of women in Pueblo communities.

Naranjo’s life and activism has been a matter of finding balance among disparate cultures.

“I grew up as a young girl in both worlds,” Naranjo said, “the outside social United States world and the Pueblo world. … In our Native culture, it was

consistently giving thanks for the creation of everything, and it showed in our dances, in our mannerisms, in our beliefs — and putting back things that you take.”

Outside the pueblos, it was often a matter of “tearing [nature] apart,”she said.

Naranjo’s conflict-resolution methods have not gone unnoticed by various advocacy groups.

“We have been inspired

by Marian’s work for peace in the world, particularly her work around the whole issue of Los Alamos and the bomb,” said Brad Laughlin, executive director of Corelight, a Santa Fe-based peace group. He said the group has supported Naranjo’s work both “in raising funds and raising consciousness” about the work she is doing for peace.

“Her message,” Laughlin said, “is not adversarial. It is not us against them — that they are wrong and bad and we’re good and right. “ Laughlin said Naranjo’s advice concerning LANL’s history is that “we all need to acknowledge what an important time we have lived through and what an important role Los Alamos has played and its … lessons about power and war and destruction, and now it’s time to put that away.”

Referring to the fires and floods that have plagued the areas near the lab and on pueblo grounds, Naranjo said it is time that all communities listen to “what the Earth is telling us.”

Much of Naranjo’s work and many of her accomplishments have gone unheralded, but that doesn’t bother her.

“I don’t care about the credit. I just care about getting the job done.”

Elizabeth LeVan departed this life November 1st, 2014. She was born Elizabeth Ann Somerville in Seattle, Washington on October 21st, 1924 to the late William and Grace (Clabaugh) Somerville.

Elizabeth was predeceased by her husband John (Jack) Amrhein LeVan, her daughter, Betsy LeVan, her daughter, Meg LeVan, and her brother, Rufus C. Somerville.

Elizabeth is survived by her daughter, Hope LeVan (Eric Younkins) of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, grandson, Daniel Lockley of Boulder, Colorado, grandson Matthew Jacob of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and granddaughter, Maura Jacob (Travis Straub) of Bethany, West Virginia.

She is also survived by family members in Saint Louis, Dallas, and Arizona, as well as many dear friends in the Santa Fe community and around the country.

Elizabeth lived her first five years in Kirkwood, Missouri, just outside of Saint Louis, the place of origin of both her parents. She spent her school years in Dallas, Texas, graduating from Highland Park High School in 1942. Her college years, which coincided with World War II, were spent at Wellesley College, just outside of Boston. She graduated in 1946, and then enrolled in the graduate school of the University of Michigan, where she met John Amrhein LeVan, who was enrolled at the University of Michigan Law School. They married on October 9th, 1948 and went to live in Jack’s home town, Kokomo, Indiana, where Jack practiced law.

Their first two children were born in Kokomo. In 1954 the family moved to Larchmont, New York, where they lived for approximately 21 years, during which time their third child was born. Jack worked for Union Carbide in the law department and in employee relations. Elizabeth and Jack retired to Santa Fe in 1975. Two of their daughters followed shortly thereafter. The family has greatly loved and enjoyed the unique city of Santa Fe. The family would like to express their love for Elizabeth, and to acknowledge her deep love for her family, and her devoted care of her family. Also, our heartfelt thanks go out to her many, many friends for their love and support, especially during this past year which followed the passing of her husband, Jack.

The family would like to thank the staff of Presbyterian Medical Services Hospice for their tender care of Elizabeth, and for Hospice’s loving support of the LeVan family throughout these difficult past few years. We would also like to thank each one of Elizabeth’s caregivers for their professionalism, as well as their generous companionship. You are special people, and the family is extremely grateful for your presence during the last year of Elizabeth’s life.

A memorial service is not planned at this time.

Contributions in Elizabeth’s name can be made to Presbyterian Medical Services, The Hospice Center, 1400 Chama Avenue, Santa Fe, New Mexico 87505, www.pms-inc.org; or to Kindred Spirits Animal Sanctuary, 3799-A State Road 14, Santa Fe, New Mexico, 87508, www.kindredspiritsnm.org; or a charity of one’s choice

Terminally ill patients push for ‘right to try’ new drugs who would like a federal law.

Supporters have popularized their cause by nicknaming the laws Dallas Buyers Club bills, invoking the 2013 movie featuring a rodeo competitor who smuggled unapproved AIDS treatments to desperate people The Colorado law, which is similar to ones in other states, permits terminally ill patients who have exhausted their treatment options — including clinical trials — to obtain therapies that have passed at least the first of three FDA investigation phases. The law does not require companies to provide the treatment, nor does it mandate that insurance companies cover it; the law also allows insurance companies to deny all coverage to patients while they use drugs under investigation.

The FDA has a process for helping very ill people receive unapproved treatments, and several pharmaceutical companies said they would continue to ask patients to go through the FDA if they wanted such treatments. “We have an obligation to follow federal laws,” said Kellie McLaughlin, a spokeswoman for Janssen Biotech.

Injured officer was in meth sting ALBUQUERQUE — Police involved in an undercover operation that resulted in an officer shooting an undercover detective were trying to bust two men for selling $60 worth of methamphetamine.

The Albuquerque Journal reports that criminal complaints against two drug suspects describe how one of them met with an undercover officer on Friday to buy “shards,” a slang term for meth.

According to the complaint, narcotics detectives watched Bailey and suspect Edmond Vester get into a car with undercover detectives.

Vester allegedly got meth from a hotel room and all four drove to a nearby McDonald’s. That’s when the shooting occurred, but the complaints make no mention of the incident.

Authorities say the officer who was shot was hospitalized in critical condition.

The words we use to talk about food offer surprising insights on history, economics, psychology, and even evolution. Daniel Jurafsky explores the relationship between food and language around the globe, from the origins of America’s national condiment as a Chinese fermented fish sauce to the reason crispy food brands tend to have different vowels than their creamy counterparts. Jurafsky will also look at the stunningly complex language of restaurant menus and reviews, and what they tell us about our culture and society.

Jurafsky, a 2002 MacArthur Fellow, is Professor and Chair of Linguistics and Professor of Computer Science at Stanford University. He recently published The Language of Food: A Linguist Reads the Menu.

neighborhoods. She had little experience in school discipline.

“I didn’t even know how to suspend a kid,” she said.

Nevertheless, Rojas and the other principals issued a lot of suspensions that year. Then they began looking for alternatives.

The proposed solution came by way of Europe.

The California Conference for Equality and Justice hired Joseph Luciani, who is from Belgium and an Eastern Mennonite University graduate who studied conflict and peacebuilding, to work at Augustus Hawkins as a full-time restorative justice specialist.

Luciani trained the school’s teachers over the next summer.

Teachers were instructed to first work on building trust by gathering students weekly and asking questions about their

between students, parents and counselors when conflicts arise.

Los Angeles, in particular, will be a case study showing how well it can be scaled up.

Suspension rates are one measure, but one of the biggest debates in restorative justice is over how to measure success.

Howard Zehr, a criminologist who began studying restorative justice in the 1970s, said the other, perhaps more profound markers are much less tangible — things like how well children understand each other.

Skeptics fear mandates to reduce suspensions will have a troubling ripple effect, with teachers afraid to suspend anyone.

“I worry about it going to the other extreme,” said Michael Petrilli, president of the Thomas B. Fordham Institute, a Washington education think tank. “A situation in which there’s very few or zero suspension and expulsions and schools become unruly places.”

Augustus Hawkins High School was opened in 2012 as part of the district’s $19.2 billion school construction and renovation project. The modern white, blue and brick buildings stand in contrast to the small homes with burglar bar windows nearby.

The school also stands in the crosshairs of rivaling gangs.

LOS ANGELES — In the past three years, Marcquees Banks has been taken out of class twice and sent to another school for getting into fights.

The third time he got into a scuffle, something different happened: A counselor at Augustus Hawkins High School in South Los Angeles pulled Banks and the other teen aside and told them they needed to talk.

Seated face to face, Joseph Luciani asked them to explain why they’d fought and how they felt — part of the school’s new approach to discipline that is catching on in urban districts and focuses more on students working out their differences with counselors than suspensions.

“I realized we had a lot of similarities,” said Banks, 17, who said his father is involved in a gang and his mother jobless.

At Los Angeles Unified School District, the nation’s second largest, the shift has been tectonic. Five years ago, students were scolded with 74,765 days of suspension; last year, they received 8,351, an 89 percent decrease.

The decline comes on the heels of a nationwide push to roll back zero-tolerance policies instituted after the deadly Columbine High School shootings that emphasize harsh discipline for even minor misbehavior in favor of support-focused alternatives.

In a letter to school districts last year, U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan urged administrators to move away from punishing students by removing them from class.

In Los Angeles, the school board mandated that by 2020 every school use restorative justice — a practice first used in criminal cases and now being implemented at a number of large districts like Pittsburgh and Milwaukee.

Will Walter White appear in new AMC series ‘Better Call Saul’?

PASADENA, Calif. — Walter White and Jesse Pinkman won’t be making any appearances on the first season of Better Call Saul, the prequel to Breaking Bad that will begin airing on AMC next month.

But that doesn’t mean those two lead characters, played

by Bryan Cranston and Aaron Paul, won’t make it sometime in the future, said Peter Gould, an executive producer, on Saturday. Better Call Saul is set six years prior to the time of the award-winning Breaking Bad. Gould said he and his partner, Vince Gilligan, want to let Better Call Saul stand on its own. If Cranston and Paul, or any touchstones of Breaking Bad appear in the new series, it better feel natural to the story, Gilligan said.

“If it feels like a stunt, then those of us in the writer’s room will have done something wrong,” Gilligan said.

The series debuts Feb. 8, with its second episode being televised the next day. Given the commercial and critical

success of its predecessor, it’s among the most anticipated new programs of the year. Bob Odenkirk, a supportBob ing player in Odenkirk Breaking Bad, steps up as the lead character, Saul Goodman, in the show focusing on his law practice.

“Every time I come into the office in this show, [I ask] has Walter White called yet?”

Odenkirk joked. “Jesse would be in middle school.”

Gilligan said he recognizes the risk of returning to the same world for the new series, and it wasn’t until the first season was written and the film was being edited that he felt confident it was the right thing to do. He said “I’d be lying” if he said he wasn’t anxious about how Better Call Saul will be received.

Calif. to begin work on nation’s first bullet train High-speed rail to cost $68 billion

By Scott Smith The Associated Press

FRESNO, Calif. — California’s high-speed rail project reached a milestone Tuesday as officials marked the start of work on the nation’s first bullet train, which is designed to whisk travelers at 200 mph between Los Angeles and San Francisco in less than three hours.

The ceremony in Fresno comes amid challenges from Central Valley farmers and communities in the train’s path who have sued to block it and from Republican members of Congress who vow to cut funding for the $68 billion project.

Opponents also say the state can’t deliver the sleek project as it was first promised.

Dan Richard, chairman of the California High-Speed Rail Authority, acknowledges the authority has been slow to buy up most of the land needed for laying track, but he is confident the system will be built, making California a model for highspeed rail across the country.

“The voters are going to get exactly what they asked for,” Richard said. “We have never ever stepped away from that vision, not one inch.”

Californians in 2008 approved a nearly $10 billion bond for the train, and in 2012 the Obama administration dedicated $3.3 billion in stimulus funds. The state Legislature last year dedicated to the project a portion of the greenhouse gas fees collected under the state’s cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gases.

Gov. Jerry Brown, a staunch

advocate of the train, is expected to attend the groundbreaking.

Bullet train systems in other countries generate revenue, and California officials are banking on this one to entice private investment as well as generate money from advertising and development.

To make way for tracks, some demolition started last year in Fresno, but officials say work this year will be more intensive along the project’s first segment — a 28-mile stretch from Fresno north to Madera. A second phase of work will occur along the 114 miles from Fresno south to Bakersfield. Plans call for completing the first 520 miles linking San Francisco and the Los Angeles Basin by 2029.

Rep. Jeff Denham, a Central Valley Republican and outspoken critic of high-speed rail, vows to block any federal money for the trains because he doesn’t believe they will be as fast or carry as many riders as initially promised. Without funding, he said, the project won’t move beyond an initial stretch in the Central Valley.

“It’s hard to celebrate breaking ground on what is likely to become abandoned pieces of track that never connect to a usable segment,” Denham said.

Officials say design and planning already has created 632 jobs and that workforce will rise to 20,000 over the next five years. Fresno Mayor Ashley Swearengin, a Republican, said she backs the rail system. In addition to putting construction workers on the job in the short term, Swearengin said the rail project will connect the Central Valley agricultural region with other sectors of the state’s economy.

An Amtrak conductor checks the time on July 16, 2013. California’s rail system reached a milestone Jan. 6 as officials marked the start of work on a highspeed train amid challenges from farmers.

in a beseeching tone of voice. She does not offer reward for obedience or threaten punishment for disobedience. She simply tells, using as few words as possible, and never, ever punctuates an instruction with a question mark. She communicates to the child that he will do what she tells him to do not because of reward or threat but simply because she tells. The parent, in five words, comes straight to the point.

Fourth, the parent acts like she knows the child is going to obey. After giving an instruction, she leaves the area (if at all possible). She does not stand there, waiting for obedience, because that is the equivalent of saying, “I don’t think you’re going to do what I just told you to do.” And that is definitely going to provoke push-back. The parent, in three words, communicates positive expectations.

Those four attributes define the effective delivery of authority regardless of setting. They define effective leadership, and effective parenting is a relatively simple matter of providing a child with equal measures of love and leadership.

How simple is that?

By Meredith Hale Special to The Washington Post

I was at a loss. As I sat eyeing the small gift box, I had no idea what to do. The receipt told me what was inside: a new Kindle Fire — for my 5-year-old.

My husband and I agreed that the present, sent by a close family member, was incredibly generous. We also agreed that our daughter would love it. But frankly, the idea of getting her one hadn’t crossed our minds.

Suddenly, we were faced with the prospect of our kindergartner owning a tablet, on which she could play games, practice reading or surf the Internet. On the one hand, we want her to be comfortable with technology and keep up with her peers. There are plenty of educational apps for young kids — not to mention opportunities for her to keep busy during long road trips. Plus, it was a gift from a family member who wanted to share something special with her during the holidays.

And yet we had some serious reservations. Talking it over, we came up with a list of reasons we were uncomfortable letting our daughter keep this gift: u There’s a world beyond the screen. I’ve seen too many kids who’ve lost the art of eye contact, their attention perpetually focused on their fingertips. u It sets us up for a constant screen-time battle. u What’s she looking at, anyway? I’m still uncomfortable with a screen I can’t easily see — especially one that’s connected to the Internet. u With a great device comes great responsibility for a child. u My daughter has a 2-year-old brother with boundary issues. u It’s a Zen thing. My daughter has an amazing way of being still. Being able to be quiet and contemplative — to be in the moment — is a gift that should be nourished. While I support parents who rely on tablets to keep their kids sane in the car, my daughter seems to be fine without this distraction.

I know we can’t postpone the inevitable forever. But after all, those Angry Birds will probably still be peeved a few years from now — when we’re ready to enter the 21st century as a family.

No matter how bad they sound, music lessons sharpen young minds and spur emotional growth, study says

By Amy Ellis Nutt The Washington Post

P

arents who have patiently sat through countless music recitals and questioned their sanity at encouraging all those trumpet or violin lessons need do so no longer. Even ear-splitting dissonance has an upside.

Music training not only helps children develop fine motor skills, but aids emotional and behavioral maturation as well, according to a new study, one of the largest to investigate the effects of playing an instrument on brain development.

Using a database produced by the National Institutes of Health Magnetic Resonance Study of Normal Brain Development, researchers at the University of Vermont College of Medicine analyzed the brain scans of 232 healthy children ages 6 to 18, specifically looking at brain development in children who play musical instruments.

“What we found was the more a child trained on an instrument,” said James Hudziak, a professor of psychiatry at the University of Vermont and director of the Vermont Center for Children, Youth and Families, “it accelerated cortical organization in attention skill, anxiety management and emotional control.”

The cortex, or outer layer of brain, changes in thickness as a child grows and develops. Previously, Hudziak and colleagues Matthew Albaugh and Eileen Crehan found relationships between cortical thickening and thinning in various areas of the brain responsible for depression, aggression and attention problems.

This research, announced last month in the Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, was different.

“I wanted to look at positive things, what we believe benefits child development,” Hudziak said.

“What I was surprised by was the emotional regulatory regions. Everyone in our culture knows if I lift

5-pound, 10-pound, 15-pound weights, my biceps will get bigger. The same is true for the brain. We shouldn’t be surprised we can train the brain.”

Because the study’s participants were all mentally healthy children, Hudziak thinks the positive effect of music training on those who are not could be significant.

“A kid may still have ADHD,” he said. “It’s the storm around it that improves.”

Inspired by his own research, and having never learned to play an instrument, the 56-year-old Hudziak decided to take viola lessons last year.

“I had this passion for health promotion in children.

It seemed silly not to do it myself,” he said.

Though music isn’t his only health-related extracurricular activity — Hudziak also engages in regular exercise and meditation — he believes the viola lessons contribute to his overall wellness. They have not, however, contributed much to his overall playing ability — at least not yet. The sanguine psychiatrist had just one word for his viola skills: “Horrible.”

Kid-friendly review: ‘Selma,’ PG-13 Director Ava DuVernay’s deep look at a key point in the civil rights movement ought to fascinate teens curious about that era and pique the interest of those who aren’t. Scenes depicting police and vigilantes attacking marchers might prove too intense for some middle-schoolers,

but the film is OK for most viewers.

With a terrific cast and a nuanced script, DuVernay unpacks the events of the 1965 voting rights marches from Selma, Ala., to the state capital of Montgomery. The film opens with the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. receiving the Nobel Peace Prize, then re-enacts the bombing of the African American church in Birmingham, Ala., where four young girls died.

In this fraught atmosphere, King

decides it’s time for the civil rights movement to join the voting rights struggle in Alabama. He has contentious meetings with President Lyndon B. Johnson, who just got the Civil Rights Act through Congress and asks King to back off on voting rights for a while. (These dramatized meetings have caused heartburn among some LBJ scholars; teens might want to read up on that, too.)

But the most fascinating scenes

show King and his colleagues strategizing. (128 minutes) The bottom line: Upsetting scenes show marchers beaten bloody and knocked down by highpressure hoses. A cleric from the North is graphically beaten to death.

The re-enacted bombing shows the girls’ bodies amid the rubble. The script includes some profanity.

In 1981 singer/songwriter Jimmy Buffet and Bob Graham, who was then governor of Florida, started the Save the Manatee Club because manatees were put on the international endangered wildlife list.

The goal of the club is to protect the habitats where manatees live and reduce manatee deaths due to human interaction.

On their website you can watch manatees on their web cam during the season. The scars on their bodies identify individual manatees.

You can also adopt a real manatee through the club and help protect those manatees at one of three locations in Florida.

AFC DIVISIONAL PLAYOFFS

‘It takes a team’ Broncos stopped riding on Superman’s cape after midseason loss to Rams

By Arnie Stapleton

The New Mexican

The Associated Press

True to its identity as a young and inexperienced bunch, The University of New Mexico men’s basketball team was equal parts impressive and shaky on Saturday night in Logan, Utah.

Fortunately for the Lobos, they finished on an impressive high UNM 66 note, using an Utah State 60 8-0 run over the final minute and a half to beat Utah State 66-60 in Mountain West Conference play in the Dee Glen Smith Spectrum.

New Mexico (11-5 overall, 3-1 MWC) moved into a tie for second place with Fresno State, one game behind Wyoming for the top spot.

Senior point guard Hugh Greenwood snapped out of a woeful twogame shooting slump, dropping in a team-high 22 points on the backbone of six 3-pointers. Fellow senior Deshawn Delaney broke out his own scoring funk, finishing with 15 points and six rebounds.

The pair were the only Lobos to finish in double figures.

J.J. N’Ganga, Obij Aget and Devon Williams each had eight points.

N’Ganga added a team-high seven rebounds as New Mexico had 14 offensive boards and had a 36-22 advantage on the glass.

Leading by as many as nine points in the second half, New Mexico endured a five-minute scoring drought as the Aggies (9-7, 2-2) methodically chipped away. They eventually took a 60-58 lead on a pair of free throws by Julion Pearre with 2:13 remaining.

DENVER hen Colts owner Jim Irsay scans the field Sunday, he’ll see in the Denver Broncos the kind of team he admittedly couldn’t surround Peyton Manning with nearly enough during their 14 years together in Indianapolis.

Equilibrium on offense, dominance on defense — a team that doesn’t necessarily have to ride Superman’s cape in its Super Bowl quest.

Remember Irsay’s comments preceding Manning’s emotional homecoming in 2013 about giving up the old Indy offense’s Star Wars numbers in a quest for more Super Bowl rings? It raised a lot of eyebrows, but his point was this: He thinks the formula for winning more championships is better balance.

John Elway thinks so, too, and that’s precisely what the Broncos (12-4) have as they host the Colts (12-5), who again have a star QB covering up INSIDE deficiencies elsewhere. u Brady and the After the recordPatriots overcome shattering Broncos were a deficit against the demolished in the Super Ravens to reach the Bowl, Elway bolstered his AFC championship. defense by signing Aqib u Who is favored in Talib, DeMarcus Ware Sunday’s games?

Emmanuel Sanders and PAGE D-4 drafted Bradley Roby.

Following the inexplicable loss at St. Louis at midseason, the Broncos pumped the brakes on their Lamborghini offense and watched fourth-string running back C.J. Anderson blossom behind a restructured line.

Although that downshifting spawned the “What’s wrong with Peyton?” buzz, consider this: the Broncos were 3-4 when Manning threw for more than 300 yards this season, 9-0 when he didn’t.

“It takes a team,” is the new mantra in the locker room.

Almost all Manning’s key numbers are down from 2013, but these less-flashy Broncos may have a better chance of winning it all — providing they can keep Luck from winning his first road playoff game.

Interestingly, the Colts are relying more on Luck than they ever did on Manning.

NFC DIVISIONAL PLAYOFFS

Seahawks batter Panthers to reach NFC title game

Pair win their divisions for respective schools

By Edmundo Carrillo The New Mexican

Wrestling has made a strong bond between Xavier Vigil and Jose Tapia, and going to different high schools didn’t break it.

Both sophomores took different paths to become successful grapplers, but they won gold medals in the Al Salazar Invitational at St. Michael’s on Saturday. Tapia, a two-time state champion with Capital, took the 120-pound division with an 11-2 decision over Rio Rancho Cleveland’s Trey Nicoley, while Vigil, who was a state runner-up for St. Michael’s last year, pinned Andres Villa of Roswell Goddard 14 seconds into the second round to win at 182.

Tapia’s win helped Capital finish third and Vigil’s highlighted a sixthplace finish for the host Horsemen.

It’s no surprise the two brought home the gold. They were part of the Patriot Wrestling Club that has produced greats like five-time state champion Koery Windham and fourtime state champion Jesse Martinez of St. Michael’s — who both wrestle at the Division II level.

Tapia’s father, Johnny Tapia, originally started the club in 2006 to provide a place for his son to practice, and it soon became a formidable program. Vigil joined when he was 9 years old, and although he was always 20 to 30 pounds heavier than Jose, the two would still roll around.

“We would always battle each other,” Jose said. “But it was fun though. We had a good time with it.”

Packers’ home streak vs. Cowboys’ road streak

By Genaro C. Armas The Associated Press

GREEN BAY, Wis. — An impressive streak will come to an end on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

The winner of the marquee playoff matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers advances to the NFC championship game. The loser is relegated to a footnote in a first-of-its-kind meeting in the postseason.

Dallas was perfect on the road this year, while Green Bay was perfect at home. Never before has an 8-0 road team in the regular season visited an 8-0 home team in the NFL playoffs.

“So you’ve got an immov-

able object going up against an unstoppable force,” Packers fullback John Kuhn said. “Which one is going to give, we’ll find out.”

It should be pretty entertaining in the process.

The offenses have the potential to match each other score for score. The skill positions are stocked with stars, especially at quarterback.

Dallas’ Tony Romo led the league in the regular season with a 113.2 passer rating, one point ahead of MVP candidate Aaron Rodgers.

But the game may not come down to Rodgers’ right arm.

SEATTLE — The chants of “Seahawks, Seahawks” cascaded from the stands at CenturyLink Field, where the playoffs returned on Saturday evening, and not a day too soon.

It had been 11 months, but the denizens of this footballcrazed city have Seahawks 31 missed the postseaPanthers 17 son. They miss it because they expect it, and they expect it because the paradigm has shifted.

Winning the Super Bowl can do that, and the Seahawks began their title defense by squeezing the underdog out of the Carolina Panthers, 31-17, to roll into next week’s NFC championship game.

Nothing, and no one, seems to intimidate the Seahawks, who turned a tight game at halftime into a rout by doing what they do. That is to say, forcing turnovers and firing exquisite touchdowns and bullying the Panthers at the line of scrimmage.

Seattle secured the victory when Russell Wilson connected on his third touchdown pass of the game, to Luke Willson — the same combination that sank Carolina in Week 8 — for a 25-yard score with 10 minutes 26 seconds left.

The Seahawks were just showing off when Kam Chancellor stepped in front of Ed Dickson by the near sideline and ran 90 yards, untouched, to extend their lead to 31-10.

The crowd roared, and the press box shook. This lair of loudness will need

a week to recover, and it will get it. In becoming the first reigning champion since the 2005 New England Patriots to win a playoff game, the Seahawks will host either Dallas or Green Bay, each of whom has already visited CenturyLink Field this season, next Sunday.

Each would be a worthy adversary, as was Carolina, which outgained Seattle before halftime but trailed by 14-10

Wyoming dismantles Boise State

Bulls bounce back against Bucks

The Associated Press

LARAMIE, Wyo. — Larry Nance Jr. scored 18 points and grabbed 10 rebounds as Wyoming pushed past Boise State 65-54 for its seventh-straight victory on Saturday night.

Wyoming 65 Josh Adams chipped in 16 points Boise St. 54 and Riley Grabau added 15 for the Cowboys (15-2, 4-0 Mountain West), who shot 53.7 percent from the field. Nance was 8 of 11 from the field, blocked four shots and dished out four assists.

Derrick Marks finished with 16 points and James Webb III hit 5 of 7 3-pointers to total 15 points for Boise State (10-6, 0-3), which was outrebounded 30-19. No other players had more than seven points as the Broncos lost their fourth straight.

FRESNO STATE 69, NEVADA 66 In Reno, Nev., Marvelle Harris scored a career-high 40 points in leading Fresno

State to a victory over Reno.

Harris, who has 12 games of at least 20 points this season, opened the second half by scoring 16 of Fresno State’s first 17 points as the Bulldogs (8-9, 3-1 Mountain West) extended an eight-point lead to 53-40.

COLORADO STATE 92, AIR FORCE 87 In Colorado Springs, Colo., J.J. Avila scored 28 points, grabbed 14 rebounds and ignited a scrum in the second half that led to several technical fouls and an ejection in Colorado State’s win over Air Force.

The Rams were leading 52-36 with 17:34 remaining in the first half when Avila went over Zach Kocur’s back for an offensive rebound and when both players went to the floor, Avila had Kocur in a headlock. Matt Mooney rushed up and punched Avila in the back, and a pushing battle ensued.

The game was delayed 17 minutes as referees handed out three technicals, ejected Mooney for a flagrant foul and

administered the free throws, with both teams making three.

Avila scored on the ensuing possession to make it 57-39.

The scuffle brought Air Force (8-7, 1-3 Mountain West) to life, and the Falcons cut the Rams’ lead to 84-81 with 50.5 seconds remaining after a Hayden Graham 3-pointer. Colorado State (15-2, 2-2) responded by making eight of 10 free throws down the stretch to escape with the narrow victory.

UNLV 74, SAN JOSE STATE 40 In Las Vegas, Nev., Rashad Vaughn had his first career double-double with 15 points and 10 rebounds and UNLV gave San Jose State its fifth straight loss.

“Some of our guys — if you don’t buy into the deal and buy into our culture and aren’t going to play defense, then you can’t play,” he said. “When we put you in and guys go right at you, that should tell you a lot about what they think about your defense and how they think of you as a player.”

As Neal pointed out, when his seniors play the way they did on Saturday the other concerns are somewhat diminished. Greenwood had hit just three shots and scored 11 points in his last two games, but was more assertive in looking for his opportunities

after Utah State had built an early eight-point lead in the first half.

“Hugh Greenwood played like he should,” Neal said. “He took open shots and let the offense come to him.”

St. Michael’s Xavier Vigil drives Roswell Goddard’s Andres Villa into the mat Saturday during 182-pound finals of the Al Salazar Invitational in Perez-Shelley Gymnasium at St. Michael’s High School.

Capital’s Jose Tapia, top, wrestles Saturday with Rio Rancho Cleveland’s Trey Nicoley during the Al Salazar Invitational.

Wrestling: Pair renew bond during meets Continued from Page D-1 The size differential didn’t matter back then, as Jose would still push Vigil to his limit.

“He always beat me up, but then I just got a lot bigger than him,” Vigil said.

The duo stuck together and practiced every day for several years, but they eventually split ways. Vigil followed a family tradition and went to St. Michael’s, while Johnny couldn’t afford private school and sent Jose to Capital.

“We were really hoping we would [remain teammates],” Jose said. “Our last year on the Patriots we got really close, and after that we just separated and it kind of sucked. We were both really disappointed.”

School also got in the way, and suddenly they weren’t

hanging out as much, but the two are still nearly inseparable when they run into each other at a tournament.

“During the summer, I see him here and there, but we mostly hang out at wrestling tournaments,” Jose said.

“It’s hard because we always have practice and then we go home and do our school work,” Vigil added. “We really don’t have any time, so it’s good to get together at the tournaments.”

They still give each other pointers, but then the conversation drifts into a regular teenage territory.

“We’ll talk about wrestling, then we’ll be talking about school and then we’ll be talking about girls or something,” Jose said. “We talk about anything.”

It’s not uncommon for exPatriots to stay close. The club’s

alumni still talk and still push each other to improve.

“All my guys that went to the high school level are still tight and try to help each other as much as they can,” Johnny said.

“It kind of sucks when they have to wrestle each other, but they still help each other out a lot.”

But that level of communication isn’t reduced to just the wrestlers. Johnny keeps in touch with them as well and still roots for them, even though he is an assistant coach for the Jaguars.

“I talk to all my wrestlers that are still in high school,” Johnny said. “When I see them at tournaments, I’ll cheer for them when I’m in the stands, as long as they’re not wrestling my guy.”

And even though he techni-

cally may not be their coach anymore, he still gives his exwrestlers an earful if they make a mistake.

“If I see something that he did wrong or something that he can improve on, I’ll tell him,” Johnny said. “I’ll do that with any of the wrestlers that come through my program.”

That’s part of the package when you become a Patriot, but it’s worth it. The club has created a slew of state champions through rigorous practices and a slate of out-of-state tournaments.

“It just helps build champions — everything about it,” Vigil said. “Getting all that experience helps a lot.”

It also helps build life-long friendships.

PREP ROUNDUP

Santa Fe Prep falls short in OT The New Mexican

On paper it was a matchup of two of the best teams in Class AAA boys basketball.

In reality, it was more than that.

Traveling to Tucumcari to face AAA’s fourth-ranked Rattlers Tucumcari 62 on Saturday night, the visiting Santa Fe PreS.F. Prep 60 paratory boys came up just short in a 62-60 overtime loss.

Ranked third in the latest poll, Prep (8-5) was in control until the fourth quarter.

Leading by 12 down the stretch, things fell apart when leading scorer Ian Anderson fouled out of the game with six minutes left after scoring a game-high 25 points. It took a Francis Castillo y Mulert 3-pointer with eight seconds left in regulation just to force overtime.

Castillo y Mulert had 17 points. Wyeth Carpenter had eight points and Keenan Amer seven.

Tucumcari (11-3) never trailed in the extra session, scoring the first six points and then surviving a full-court heave from Prep at the final buzzer to get the win.

TIERRA ENCANTADA 60, MAXWELL 52 The Alacranes outscored the Bears 15-2 in the fourth quarter to combat a 50-45 deficit and take third place in the Wagon Mound Tournament.

“Our size and intensity just overpowered them,” Tierra Encantada head coach Mark Archuleta said. “Sometimes we look like third-graders and sometimes we look like college players. It just depends.”

Xavier Benavidez had 12 points to lead Tierra Encantada (7-6), Cesar Ferrer had 11 points and Manny Hernandez and Andres Flores each had 10. Jeremiah Atencio scored 18 points to lead Maxwell.

MORA 73, SPRINGER 52 The Red Devils kept up with the Rangers (7-5) for a quarter, but the pace of the game was too much for them. Mora outscored them 28-14 in the second quarter to take a 48-29 halftime lead, then held Springer to just 23 points the rest of the way.

Casimiro Fresquez led the Rangers with

18 points, while Ferdinand Valencia added 17 and Jerome Alcon 11. Anthony Romero had 23 points for the Red Devils, while Urial Urquijo added 10.

WOLF ROUND ROBIN In the six-team tournament hosted by Santa Fe Waldorf at Christian Life, the Wolves enjoyed a little home cooking with a pair of wins on Saturday. They opened things by beating Vaughn 64-34 as Augie Ciofalo had 39 points. Sean Ramsey had 12 points and 14 rebounds while Ivan Davila had 11 points. The Wolves outscored Vaughn 20-3 in the second quarter.

They capped their day with a 75-26 rout of Mosquero. Ciofalo had 28 points and Davila 15. Abel Knouse chipped in with 14.

Waldorf (8-3) was up 42-11 at halftime and had the running clock in its favor for the final 13 minutes of the game.

Santa Fe’s Academy for Technology and the Classics was also part of the tournament. The Phoenix (6-6) beat Mosquero, 76-30, then turned around and beat Vaughn, 71-47. Ross Gyolloy-Pap combined for 58 points in the two games.

GIRLS TUCUMCARI 53, SANTA FE PREPARATORY 46 In Prep Gymnasium, Alexis Mundt had 20 points to lead the Blue Griffins (5-5) in a losing effort at home against the Lady Rattlers. Bianca Gonzales and Joy Maran each added eight points for Prep, which trailed 13-4 after one quarter and never really recovered.

“You put yourself in a hole like that and you have to exhaust yourself trying to get it back,” said Anika Amon, Blue Griffins head coach. “I wouldn’t say we ran out of gas at the end, but we were never able to get back and tie it or take the lead.”

Prep did get its deficit down to two late in the game, but never closer.

The Blue Griffins return to action Tuesday against Capital.

SANTA FE INDIAN SCHOOL 52, DULCE 12 The Lady Braves played up to their level, and didn’t let up against the Lady Hawks, even after taking a 30-6 halftime lead. With the game in hand, SFIS head coach Lanse

Carter emphasized mental toughness to push through the second half.

“Those games can be tough mental games for your team,” Carter said. “And we talked about that at halftime. We wanted to stay mentally tough and keep pushing, because that’s how kids can get hurt. They start slacking off and messing around and not playing hard.”

Milan Schimmel had 11 points to lead the Lady Braves, while Victoria Lovato added nine and RanDee Toya eight.

SFIS (9-4) has a very emotionally charge matchup on Monday with Española Valley and former Lady Braves head coach Cindy Roybal, who coached at the school from 2008-13.

SANTA FE HIGH 41, PIEDRA VISTA 26 In Toby Roybal Memorial Gymnasium, Briana Hernandez had a game-high 15 points to lead the Demonettes (11-3) to a nondistrict home win against the Lady Panthers.

Santa Fe High led 20-13 at halftime and was never seriously threatened after that.

Piedra Vista was held to single digits in all four quarters.

Holly Patterson had a team-high 10 points for the Lady Panthers.

The Demonettes have just one full week of nondistrict play remaining. That week starts with a visit on Monday to Perez-Shelley Memorial Gymnasium and a date with red-hot St. Michael’s. The Lady Horsemen have won 12 straight games.

LADY WOLF ROUND ROBIN In the six-team tournament hosted by Santa Fe Waldorf at Christian Life, the Lady Wolves were swept aside in a pair of lopsided losses on Saturday. Waldorf was beaten 43-20 by Vaughn earlier in the day, then lost 57-25 to Mosquero as the tournament came to a close.

In the game against Vaughn, Aylin Sheehan and Alex Chastenet each had nine points for the Lady Wolves (5-6). They trailed 18-10 at halftime, but were outscored 11-2 in the fourth quarter.

The loss to Mosquero saw Chastenet finish with a team-high 13 points, but it wasn’t nearly enough to offset the brilliant 36-point effort by Mosquero’s Gabby Vigil.

Santa Fe’s Academy for Technology and The Classics was also swept, losing 56-29 to Vaughn and 62-14 to Mosquero.

Matchups

The New York Times

Cowboys at Packers

Colts at Broncos

This game has too many subplots to keep track of. It will be the first playoff matchup between a team that went 8-0 at home and one that went 8-0 on the road. It is a rematch of sorts of the Ice Bowl, the NFL title game played on Dec. 31, 1967. Green Bay is expected to be frigid on Sunday, though not as cold as it was for the Ice Bowl, which had a minus-46 wind chill at kickoff. Dallas’ Tony Romo will be trying to distance himself from his reputation, and DeMarco Murray will be trying to prove that his NFL-leading rushing output in the regular season was not a fluke.

But the top story involves Aaron Rodgers’ left calf.

But based on the way Rodgers played on the injured leg in a win over Detroit, Green Bay should advance.

Line: Packers by 5½.

Pick: Packers.

Denver’s defense is a force on multiple levels.

As Von Miller and DeMarcus Ware, one of the most effective pass-rushing combinations in the NFL, charge toward a quarterback, linebacker Brandon Marshall patrols the middle of the field, helping to shut down the short passing game.

With few options other than throwing deep, the opposing quarterback must try to avoid Aqib Talib and Chris Harris, who combined for 34 passes defended and seven interceptions this season.

Talib made teams pay for challenging him, returning two of his four interceptions for touchdowns.

The Colts also do not have a defensive player as dominant as Miller or Ware — no Indianapolis player had more than 6½ sacks — but the team’s sack total, 41, matched Denver’s for ninth in the league.

Line: Broncos by 7.

Pick: Broncos.

Broncos: Colts’ Luck has 40 TDs Continued from Page D-1

“Even when they’re onedimensional, they’re not oneresponsible for 73.3 percent of dimensional because he’ll take the Colts’ total net yards. Duroff and run it,” Denver defensive ing his three seasons there, Luck coordinator Jack Del Rio said. has accounted for 78 percent, And throw it: Luck led the according to STATS. league with 40 TD throws.

Granted, some of that is due That was one more than to Luck’s mobility — his Manning, who threw just three 905 yards rushing in his threeTD passes in December to go year career are already more along with six interceptions. than Manning accumulated in His coach scoffed at the Indianapolis (722). notion anything’s wrong with

Manning. “I think a year ago, he broke probably every singleseason record known to man.

It was the style we played and what was best for our team at that point,” John Fox said. “This year I think we’re a little bit different team.

“We’re built different. He was a 12-4 quarterback during the regular season, which is I think tied for the best record in football this year,” he added.

Packers: Rodgers nursing injury Continued from Page D-1 last couple weeks in practice by a strained left calf. He has vowed to play, though mobility might be an issue.

All signs at the end of the week pointed to Rodgers being ready to go. Rodgers, who was listed as probable on the injury report, can do just as much damage standing the pocket as

on the move.

Plus, Green Bay’s offensive line has played well all year.

“He looks like he’s moving fine to me right now. [We are] not going to change anything or our approach of how we want to attack Dallas’ defense,” coach Mike McCarthy said.

Most teams might be fretting at the prospect of facing Rodgers at Lambeau, where the Pack-

ers have had long stretches of dominance with the ball.

The Cowboys seem unfazed.

In fact, they’re quite comfortable on the road.

“We just kind of put our head down and go to work,” Romo said. “I don’t know that we really get affected by where we’re playing or who we’re going against and that sort of thing.”

Seahawks: Cam had 2 turnovers Continued from Page D-1 because of two turnovers by Cam Newton, who had guided the 7-8-1 Panthers to the NFC South title.

The same Carolina team that went two months between victories — whose quarterback, Newton, suffered two back fractures in a car accident; whose coach was awakened Monday by a two-alarm fire at his home — had gone six weeks without a loss.

Speaking to his players, Panthers coach Ron Rivera mentioned the only other squad with a losing mark to win a playoff game — the 2010 Seahawks, who beat New Orleans.

Then Rivera challenged them to go out and win again.

“It isn’t the prettiest thing, but we got a date at the prom,” said Carolina safety Roman Harper, who played for that Saints team four years ago. “We’re here.

She’s probably not the bestlooking one, she’s not going to win prom queen, but we’ll have a good time.”

Or so they told themselves.

As the Seahawks ran onto the field before the game, Newton stood about 20 yards away and

watched, sizing up his foes and gauging the din, the likes of which he had never heard before.

On their first possession, the Panthers went three-and-out.

And again on their second. Not on their third, which ended in a Richard Sherman interception.

Or on their fourth, which ended in fumbled snap at their 28-yard line, which led four plays later to Wilson’s nifty 16-yard scoring toss to Doug Baldwin.

There were 46 minutes remaining. Seattle led by 7-0. It felt insurmountable. All because of that defense, empowered by its confidence and its defiance all at once.

The Seahawks have given up the fewest points and yards in the league for two consecutive seasons. They had ceded all of 39 points in the last six games.

They had not allowed a touchdown over the last 10 quarters.

Their collective reaction: So what?

Every play, they must prove themselves — the Seattle ethos — and the Seahawks had to do so again after Carolina gashed them on a 79-yard touchdown drive. On it, Newton converted

all four third downs, including a 7-yard slant to Kelvin Benjamin that left the crowd silent and wanting.

All Carolina did last week was hold Arizona to 78 yards, the fewest in NFL postseason history.

The Seahawks noticed, and they were not impressed. “They were going against the Cardinals’ third-string quarterback,” Seattle linebacker K.J. Wright said of the Panthers, “so I don’t think we should praise them too much.”

One similarity between that third-string quarterback, Ryan Lindley, and Wilson: They both throw right-handed. As for other similarities: See the previous sentence.

Wilson extends plays and makes smart decisions and can loft a ball 35 yards downfield into an area roughly the size of a keyhole.

That is what Wilson did on the 63-yard scoring play to Jermaine Kearse, who slipped behind the rookie cornerback Bene Benwikere and caught the arcing pass with his right hand, cradling it with his forearm as he raced toward the end zone.

Gronkowski, and the Patriots got the ball back after a punt. This time, another strong arm lifted the Patriots into a tie.

With the ball at the New England 49, Brady threw behind the line of scrimmage to Edelman on the left side. The Kent State quarterback then lofted a deep pass to a wide-open Amendola after a defender came up toward Edelman. It was the first postseason pass by a wide receiver since Pittsburgh’s Antwaan Randle-El threw one in the 2006 Super Bowl.

“We’ve had it in for 10 weeks, and the coaches finally got to call it,” Edelman said. “I had to loosen up the arm a little bit.”

After Justin Tucker’s 25-yard field goal gave the Ravens a 31-28 lead five minutes into the fourth quarter, the Ravens nearly stopped the Patriots drive. Brady threw a 9-yard completion to Shane Vereen and officials ruled he fumbled and Baltimore recovered. The call was reversed when replays showed Vereen was down by contact. Seven plays later, LaFell scored. Baltimore had two more possessions. The first ended when Duron Harmon intercepted Flacco’s deep pass in the end zone with 1:39 left.

On the final series, Flacco’s desperation pass into the end zone was knocked down as time expired.

Brady completed 33 of 50 passes for 367 yards, while Flacco was 28 for 44 for 292 yards and two interceptions. Forsett gained 129 yards on 24 carries.

COLLEGE CHAMPIONSHIP

Ohio State coach learned tips from visit to Oregon practice

By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

DALLAS — When Urban Meyer took a year off from coaching, he made a trip to Oregon to visit a friend — then-Ducks defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti — and to find out how Chip Kelly was running the show in Eugene.

Both Meyer and Kelly had an affinity for spread offenses, but Xs and Os were not necessarily Meyer’s most important takeaway. Oregon had become a program in synch from top to bottom, from ball boys to the quarterbacks.

Some of the former Oregon coach’s methods were nothing like what Meyer would have ever considered, but everyone on campus seemed to be buying in.

“You know, you go in [to Oregon’s practices], they are playing Lion King music,” Meyer said. “They have like a DJ at practice, bizarre stuff now. I remember even I was like, ‘What is this?’ ” It was nothing like what Meyer’s mentor, former Ohio State coach Earle Bruce had ever done, but now it is part of

LeBeau resigns from Steelers PITTSBURGH — Hall of Famer Dick LeBeau has resigned as the defensive coordinator for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The 77-year-old LeBeau had been with the organization for 16 seasons, including serving as defensive coordinator from 1995-96 and from 2004-14. He was also the team’s secondary coach from 1992-94.

He was inducted into Pro

the Buckeyes’ routine. Leading into the Michigan game, LL Cool J’s “It’s Time for War” was blaring at practice to get the Buckeyes pumped.

After Ohio State beat Alabama to earn a spot opposite Oregon in the first College Football Playoff national championship game on Monday night, Meyer spoke so glowingly about how well the two programs know each other some might have thought the coaches were exchanging Christmas cards.

Not quite.

“I think that was the relationship that Chip and Urban had, I’m not privy to that. But we’re very friendly,” Oregon coach Mark Helfrich said earlier this week with a smile. “It depends on how much we know the other party, but we try to gather more information than we send out.”

Sharing of ideas is fairly common in college football.

Out-of-work coaches, as Meyer was in 2011, often make campus tours to keep up on best practices and new strategies.

Coaches bounce from team to team, making friends, and then

share with those friends.

“That’s the great thing about what college coaches do that I don’t think they do at the next level,” Ohio State co-defensive coordinator Luke Fickell said Saturday during media day at the convention center in Dallas.

Oregon, however, is not big on sharing. Which means Meyer may be one of a precious few who’ve had a recent glance at the program.

“I don’t know that it really helps,” Fickell said about Meyer’s familiarity with Oregon.

Fickell said it takes more than just a visit to practice to know what makes a program tick, and how a team will react in the fourth quarter of a tight game.

Oregon offensive coordinator Scott Frost said the Ducks tend to keep to themselves because they didn’t seem to be getting as much as they were giving in the idea exchange.

Oregon considers itself cutting edge and its up-tempo spread offense has inspired a legion of copy cats.

“I know we feel good about what we do,” Oregon receivers coach Matt Lubick said.

Football Hall of Fame in 2010.

In his 13 years as defensive coordinator, the Steelers Dick LeBeau have finished in the top five in total defense 11 times and five times the team had the top overall ranked defense.

The team won seven division championships, four AFC championships and two Super Bowls, while making the

playoffs nine times during that period.

Linebackers coach Keith Butler is the most likely candidate to replace LeBeau.

“We want to thank Dick for his many years of service with the team and all that he has done for this organization,” Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said in a statement.

“His coaching helped lead us to many successful seasons and championships. We are very appreciative of his efforts, and we wish him well.”

can’t tell you how pleased and proud I was to discover that one of my high school classmates has become a famous poet. I can’t tell you that because the fact is, I wanted him vaporized in a tragic rhyming accident. Sorry.

It’s not merely that back in high school, Charles was the Rich, Handsome Kid Who Wore Jackets and Ties and Probably Scored a Lot, whereas I was the Nerd With the Bad Hair and Thick Black Glasses Who Definitely Didn’t.

It’s mostly this: When I went out and bought some of Charles’ highly acclaimed poetry (he has published 20 books), I realized to my horror that ... I couldn’t understand it! Charles is Gene a founder of Language Poetry, a literWeingarten ary movement so willfully opaque that The Washington even some experts can’t quite explain Post it.

When I learned recently that Charles would be at Georgetown University to read his poetry, I invited him to lunch.

I brought along a copy of our senior yearbook, which I thought might be equalizing. It reminded Charles that he had lost his copy — possibly, he said, when he sold his personal papers to the University of California.

Me: Please share for my readers your most intimate memories of me.

Charles: They are so intimate I have repressed them.

Me: You don’t remember me at all, do you?

Charles: Not really.

Me: Being a highly literate person, I understand your poems perfectly. But for the sake of my readers, could you explain this one?

Charles: I think it really speaks for itself. It always comes back to the pharaoh, doesn’t it?

Me:You have said, in interviews, that Language Poetry has no recognizable syntax, subject matter, vocabulary, structure, form, style or message. In this medium, you are an acknowledged genius. My question is, this is quite a gig you got going, no?

Charles: I am interested in the experience of incomprehensibility and confusion.

Me: What was with the damn jackets and ties?

Charles: It was a mistake.

Me: You seemed stuck-up.

Charles: Stuck-up is the other side of socially maladroit.

It looks to others as if you have agency, as opposed to that you just can’t do any better.

Me: In my college apartment, I had a really, really stained and ratty sofa. It embodied the opposite of “pompous.” I stenciled a name onto the back of it: “Charles Bernstein.” I was employing irony. A poetic device.

Charles: I was unaware of the way I was perceived.

Me: I apologize. The truth is, we were much more alike than I knew. Poetry’s about telling the truth, right?

Charles: No, poetry is about unmasking false claims to the truth.

Me: You are not easy.

OUR WATER QUALITY STEPHEN WIMAN

City, residents address supply concerns

A

lthough the numbers have not been finalized for 2014, all indications are that our water consumption has been reduced below 2013 levels.

The numbers provided herein are from the city of Santa Fe Water Conservation and Drought Management Plan 2015. During 2013, the latest year for which water-use numbers are available, total water production was 9,414 acre-feet, down 29 percent from 1995 despite a 16 percent increase in customers served. Per capita consumption in 2013 declined to 101 gpcd (gallons per capita per day), down from 106 gpcd in the previous year and 40 percent less than the 168 gpcd of 1995. For single-family residences, 2013 consumption dropped to 70 gpcd from 75 gpcd in the previous year.

Bear in mind that an estimated 37 percent of residential water use is for outdoor irrigation, leaving ample opportunities for improvement.

Water for Santa Fe is produced from four primary sources — the Santa Fe River, the city tate Guide Santa Fe Real Es well field, the Buckman well field and the Buckman Direct Diversion Jan uary 201 5 Project — and is supplemented for specific uses by treated effluent from the wastewater treatment plant. Water Division staff members are currently working collaboratively with Santa Fe County on a Regional Wastewater Feasibility Study, due for completion in April 2016, to evaluate a wide variety of other posMORE HOME sible uses for treated effluent.

This column runs The city is now also regularly in Home, participating with Santa Fe Real Estate Guide. Look for Santa Fe County in the Home inside The Santa Fe Basin Study: New Mexican every Adaptations to Climate first Sunday of the Change for the City month and at and County, in partnerwww.santafenew ship with the Bureau mexican.com/life/ of Reclamation under home. its WaterSMART Program. The study is based on the vulnerability of our surface-water supply with regard to seasonal snowpack and runoff and the pumping of groundwater from aquifers that are slow to recharge.

The likely impacts of climate change and human development on wildlife habitat, water quality and ecological resiliency are being addressed in this study.

In 2014, Mayor Javier Gonzales established the Climate Change Task Force, composed of environmental and clean-energy experts as well as representatives from the business community. The task force is intended to foster community involvement, establish Santa Fe as a leader in mitigating the effects of climate change and set goals to track progress in stewardship of the environment.

This new year is not without water concerns in addition to the persistent drought. Surface water from the Santa Fe River drainage basin typically provides from 20 percent to 40 percent of our total water supply, but ongoing construction at McClure Reservoir means that for most of 2015, the smaller and downstream Nichols Reservoir (which holds only about 17 percent of the reservoirs’ capacity) will be the sole reservoir retaining river water. The city must judiciously manage releases of watershed runoff to the Canyon Road Water Treatment Plant, to acequias and to Santa Fe River flows in accordance with the Living River Ordinance.

A milestone of concern in 2014 was that the Bureau of Reclamation announced that the San Juan-Chama Project, which conveys Colorado River Basin water to the Rio Grande for diversion by Santa Fe and other cities, cut subscriber allotments for the first time in its 40-year history. Just one more reminder to keep on lowering our water consumption in 2015.

Improving the kitchen in small (or big) ways

By Melissa Rayworth The Associated Press

A

nother holiday season has passed, and with it the marathon cooking and baking sessions. The hours spent using every kitchen appliance and inch of counter space had a potential benefit more lasting than a good meal: When we really use our kitchens, we discover what does and doesn’t work in this very important room.

Remodeling a kitchen can be expensive and challenging, but you can make substantial cosmetic changes with just the help of a painter and electrician, says interior designer Betsy Burnham of Burnham Design in Los Angeles.

And if you’re ready for even bigger changes, it’s still possible to stay on budget and create a gorgeous kitchen with a minimum of stress.

Step one is deciding what really needs to be done. Can you work with the appliances and cabinets you’ve got, or is it time for a fullscale remodel?

Step two is the budget, coming

Burnham Design designed custom Shaker-style cabinetry for both the perimeter cabinets and the center island of this kitchen, above. ‘Deep drawers provide excellent storage for pots and pans, and even oversized plates,’ Burnham says, ‘and banks of drawers just look cool.’ The kitchen below pairs dark olive green cabinets with a textured black stone countertop.

up with a realistic estimate for each expense, says designer Brian Patrick Flynn of Flynnside Out Productions.

Then, the fun can begin. Three areas where a little improvement can go a long way:

Storage A smoothly functioning kitchen has space for everything to be stored away, within reasonable reach. Can you achieve that with your current cabinets? If so, Flynn suggests keeping them and just replacing or refinishing the doors.

“Cabinetry installation adds a lot to a budget,” he says, “so saving by simply reusing what you’ve got can be a massive help.”

If your cabinet doors are stained wood, consider painting them.

Then, change the hardware.

Drawer pulls and cabinet door handles “can make or break the look of the space,” says Lee Kleinhelter of the Atlanta-based design firm Pieces. Take time choosing new ones.

Continued from Page E-1 Flynn agrees: “I always use high-end hardware regardless of how high or low my budget is,” he says. “Adding an interesting metal and finish to your doors just really adds character and uniqueness. You can never go wrong with dull black pulls and knobs, and I’m also a huge fan of antique brass. When it comes to silver tones, I try to stay classic and go with polished nickel.”

If you do need to add or replace cabinets, Burnham suggests having them custom-made.

It can be expensive (Flynn estimates that ready-made cabinets cost about one-third as much as lower-end custom designs). But they are worth the investment, Burnham says. “You’ll get wellmade pieces, built to your needs, that will last through time, kids and tons of use.”

Rather than adding cabinets with doors, she suggests installing drawers. “Deep drawers provide excellent storage for pots and pans, and even oversize plates,” Burnham says, “and banks of drawers just look cool.”

material that comes in an incredible array of colors and patterns,” Burnham says, and “it works for backsplashes or kitchen flooring, and really makes a statement.”

Try mixing affordable elements with higher-end ones: “Basic butcher block is my favorite countertop because of its classic appeal, and it’s insanely affordable. By juxtaposing it with a unique backsplash, like a mosaic marble or rustic stone, it looks more high-end,” Flynn says.

“My biggest splurge on kitchens is usually my lighting and backsplashes.”

And choose colors and materials you’ll be happy with longterm, rather than something trendy. “Classic and simple is where it’s at,” says Burnham.

firm estimates that roughly half the country’s homes will match or surpass their pre-recession prices by the middle of 2015.

But “pockets of weakness” are surfacing in some parts of the country, noted Sam Khater, deputy chief economist at CoreLogic. In three of the states with the highest annualized gains in November — Texas (8.5 percent), Colorado (8.8 percent) and North Dakota (7.9 percent) — home values have “been benefiting from the energy boom,” Khater said. But as oil prices have declined, home values in these states may see downward pressure, he said.

Aging: Extra lighting is important Continued from Page E-1

Seating

A new table and chairs can update a kitchen’s look and make it more comfortable. But it’s tempting to sacrifice function for style. Don’t.

“We all live in our kitchens,” says Kleinhelter, “so it is important to have comfortable and Fresh colors and materials durable seating.”

Stools are popular, and BurnPainting kitchen walls can be ham says designers in her office “a quick, inexpensive solution love the simple, clean look of a to a kitchen remodel on a low row of stools arranged along a budget,” Kleinhelter says, and bar or kitchen island. But, she “any color can work.” But she says, comfort is key: “We find advises clients that kitchen décor most clients like seats with backs “should work with the rest of and arms.” the house.” Bring in colors that Also, choose seating that’s easy appear in nearby rooms, or stick to clean and durable. “I love to to a neutral palette. use vinyls or faux leathers,” says If you’re trying to update Kleinhelter, “because it is so easy your kitchen’s look, Burnham to clean, but still looks polished.” says “there’s been a shift from Burnham’s favorite for seating: the once-ubiquitous all-white kitchen toward gray-painted cab- the natural texture and style of inets, and we’ve found ourselves rattan.

of an aging population. “There is no one answer,” he said, noting that a huge piece of “retirement planning” should include planning for a long, comfortable stay in a home that makes it easy to do daily living tasks and keep up a social life. “You want to make sure your house is accessible for your friends.”

Independent consultant and designer Wendy Vander Ham, formerly of Sierra West Sales, and Joanne Burns of Kitchen Lifestyles are also CAPS-trained, and they often team up to design kitchens and baths that incorporate what they call “universal design.” The ultimate goal, Burns says, is “being comfortable in your own home. Accessible design can be goodlooking and discreet and can accommodate all ages and abilities. So much of the design we see is purely aesthetic and not terribly functional.”

Kitchens and baths are key to a home that gracefully accommodates aging in place, the two agree. Burns advises creating an accessible “work zone” that extends from 15 inches off the floor to no more than 48 inches off the floor. “You should be able to get everything you need in a single motion,” she says. “Using all drawers instead of cabinets is a good solution.

You want the kitchen to welcome a range of ages and needs, with open space for sitting and different counter heights for different people. If one person is 6 feet tall and their partner is 5 feet tall, the counters should work for both of them.”

For bathrooms, Gee said there should be seating, flexible counter heights, non-

glare surfaces and layers of lighting. A vital part of the bathroom design is a curbless shower that is flush or only gently raised from the surrounding floor. “Even if it’s only used for a few months because one of the residents is on crutches,” he says, “it makes life so much easier.”

All agree that good lighting is crucial throughout the home, especially in kitchens and baths. “Use layers of light and make sure you have task lighting,” Burns said. “Under-counter lights can make a vast difference, and they don’t have to be expensive.”

Burns said she has worked with clients who cringe at the notion of accessible design, thinking it means a hospital-like, sterile environment. “There are lots of options that are pleasing,” she says, “from hand-rails to flooring choices. When the ultimate goal is to live comfortably, nobody has to sacrifice beauty. We want to use our homes to their maximum potential.”

One of the biggest challenges is remodeling a home with interior stairs. “You can install lifts or elevators,” Burns said, “but the work is very expensive and they

require a lot of space. Honestly, if you have the choice, avoid stairs and steps — both inside and outside.”

Gee always plans for a well-lighted, no-step outside entry, covered from the elements and equipped with sensor lights that focus on the lock and doorbell. “In the past,” he says, “I have created intricate landscaping and entries without realizing that the design was not very accessible.

No more.”

The top requirement for a home that allows comfortable “aging in place,” Vander Ham said, is wide-open space on one level. She points out that many of the older homes in Santa Fe have narrow hallways and doors, small rooms and steep lots with steps leading to the entry. Enlarging doorways often requires reframing, and it can mean rewiring, as well. “Remodeling a home like that can be impossible or prohibitively expensive. You really need to work with a licensed professional who can tell you what’s doable and what it will cost.”
